Mr. Oskoui discussed that Mrs. Boules, a resident at 11615 Olive Street requested for a parking prohibition alont3 Olive Street. He further discussed that staff had completed a resident survey, parking conditions survey and site evaluation study. Mr. Oskoui explained that half of the residents supported a parking prohibition on the east side and the other half wanted to see the prohibition on the west side of the street. However, because by prohibiting parking on the east side, fewer, on- street parking spaces would be eliminated, staff recommended a "No Parking Any Time" parking prohibition on the east side of the street. Mrs. Boules who was present also spoke in favor of the proposed parking prohibition. After discussion Commissioner Archambault moved to support staff's recommendation . Motion was seconded by Commissioner Cunningham and was carried unanimously. Item 7. Review of Parkinq Conditions on Pear Street.

He further discussed that staff completed a resident survey, parking conditions survey and site evaluation study . Mr. Oskoui explained that four residents, supported a parking prohibition on the west side and three residents wanted to see the prohibition on the east side of the street. However because by prohibiting parking on the east side fewer on- street parking spades would be eliminated staff recommended a "No Parking Any Time" parking prohibition on the east side of Pear Street. After discussion Commissioner Archambault moved to support staff's recommendation. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Cunningham and was carried unanimously. Item 6. Review of Safety Conditions - Intersection of Josephine Avenue and Fir Street Mr. Oskoui said that staff had received a complaint from Mr. Adela Jimenez a resident at 3636 Josephine Avenue about the speeding problems, and a number of traffic accidents involving property damage at the intersection of Josephine Avenue and Fir Street.

It must be emphasized that even "disabled parking zones" do not constitute "Personal reserved parking," and, that any person with valid "disabled persons" license plates (DP or VT plates) may park in such stalls. Persons parking in such stalls without valid DP or VT plates may be cited and towed away as resolved by City Council Resolution No. 77 -89. Normally, in establishing on- street parking facilities for the disabled there shall be a reasonable determination made that the facility will serve more than one disabled person and that the need is of an on -going nature. The intent is to prevent the pro- liferation of special parking stalls that may be installed for a short -term purpose but later are seldom used. Unjustified installation of such parking stalls unnecessarily increases the City's maintenance and operations costs reduces available on- street parking for the general public and detracts from the overall effectiveness of the disabled persons parking program. However, exceptions may be made, in special hardship cases, provided all of the following conditions exist: (1) Applicant (or guardian) must be in possession of valid license plates for "disabled persons" or "disabled veterans" issued by the California Department of Motor Vehicles on the vehicle. (2) The proposed disabled parking space must be in front of the disabled persons place of residence. (3) Subject residence must not have off- street parking available or off- street space that maybe converted into disabled parking.

(5) Applicant must pay an initial fee of $15.00 to cover the cost of field investigation, installation, maintenance and future removal. (6) Applicant must pay an annual fee of $10.00, after the first year, to cover the cost of yearly investigation to confirm the pre- sent need for the handicapped parking zones. Note: Please do not send check until after this application has been reviewed by the Traffic and Parking Commission and approved by the City.

ZOLIN, . f L DATE: January 28, 1993 TO: THE HONORABLE CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE TRAFFIC AND PARKING COMMISSION FROM: Emilio M. Murga, Director of Public Workslj(/ SUBJECT: REVIEW OF SAFETY CONDITIONS Intersection of Fernwood Avenue, California Avenue and Platt Avenue PURPOSE: To recommend that the Traffic and Parking Commission review traffic conditions and support staff recommendations for providing additional safety measures at the intersection of Fernwood Avenue, California Avenue and Platt Avenue. BACKGROUND: Staff has received a letter from area residents (see attached copy of letter) concerned with accidents at the intersection and with vehicles running into property fences, the residents are requesting a "warning signal or light ". Staff has conducted a traffic investigation with the following results. California Avenue and Fernwood Avenue are both collector streets that are forming an off -set intersection with Platt Avenue which is a local residential street. They have the following characteristics (see attached sketch): Fernwood Avenue • Property line to property line width: 40 feet • Curb to curb width: 34 feet • Number of driving lanes: 2 • Number of parking lanes: 1 (parking prohibited on the south side) • Average Daily Traffic (ADT): 5,300 VPD (10 -21 -91 count at Beechwood Avenue) • Speed Limit: 35 mph, Critical Speed; 41 mph ITEM 7 1 i California Avenue • Property line,to property line width: 40 feet • Currb to curb width: 30 feet • Number of driving lanes: 2 • Number of parking lanes: 2 (Parking prohibited during the AM and PM peak hours on the east side) • Speed Limit: 25 mph, Critical Speed: 29 mph • Average Daily Traffic (ADT): 6,000 VPD Platt Avenue • Property line to property line width: 40 feet • Curb to curb width: 30 feet • Number of driving lanes: 2 • Number of parking lanes: 2 • Speed Limit: 25 mph The intersection of Platt Avenue and Fernwood Avenue is controlled by stop signs at Platt Avenue (both legs of Platt). Some of the residents in the area have explained that they have noticed a number of hit and run accidents causing property damages that were not reported. Staff has reviewed the accident reports for the subject area for the two year period of September 1990 to September 1992 (see attached copies of SWITRS report). The reports reflect five accidents for that period. o 1/26/91 100 feet west of intersection of Platt Avenue and California Avenue Auto backing up (south bound), hit pedestrian (west bound), daylight. o 3/26/91 278 feet west of intersection of Fernwood and Platt Auto making a U turn, broadsiding auto traveling west bound, daylight. ITEM 7 2 0 4/26/91 100 feefeast of intersection of Awood and Platt Auto traveling east bound on Platt sideswiped a parked vehicle on the north side (wrong side) of the road. Night with lights on. Driver had been drinking (HBDI). 0 7/3/91 20 feet east of the intersection of Fernwood and Platt Auto traveling with unsafe speed traveling east bound; on collided head on with another auto traveling west bound, daylight. 0 8/3/91 74 feet east of the intersection of Fernwood and California Bycicle traveling east bound on Platt, trying to cross Fernwood (stop sign on Platt), does not yield R -O -W and hit auto traveling westbound on Fernwood Of the above mentioned accidents none could be corrected by installing stop signs on California Avenue and /or Fernwood Avenue. In addition only one accident was caused by a motorist traveling at an unsafe speed. Staff has notified the Sheriff's Department to conduct a selective enforcement program, for the area, to evaluate possible speeding problems. Staff has also evaluated the warrants for installation of stop signs at Fernwood Avenue and /or California Avenue. Existing conditions and parameters do not meet the required warrants. ANALYSIS: In order to reduce the possibility of property fence damages as a result of cars going over the curb and hitting property fences, and in order to provide additional safety measures to enhance the overall condition of the area, staff recommends the implementation of the following: 1. The Sheriff's Department implement a selective enforcement program in the area to address possible speeding problems and the detailed results of the program to the Commission in three months (May of 1993). 2. The Sheriff's Department be on the look -out for the unreported accidents. 3. Implement an educational program for the residents and encourage them to report all accidents to the Sheriff's Department, so that accurate accident records for the intersection can be kept. ITEM 7 3 ® • 4. To provide additional safety measures. The Department of Public Works will install two reverse curve signs (W1 -4) with an advisory speed plate located below the sign at the beginning and end of the curve on Fernwood Avenue and California Avenue (see attached sketch). These signs (Wl -4) will warn the drivers traveling southbound on California Avenue and the drivers traveling northbound on Fernwood Avenue that they are approaching a curve intersection. 5. Install two street lights on Fernwood Avenue on existing power poles to enhance the lighting conditions at night. (see sketch) 6. Restripe worn out striping and install new raised pavement markers along the curved section of Fernwood Avenue (see attached sketch). 7. Install a guard rail in front of 3507 Platt Avenue to protect the property fence from damages caused by cars going over the curb and hitting the fence (see attached sketch). 8. Staff will monitor the accident reports in the next three months and evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed additional safety measures as outlined on items one through seven. If it is determined that the proposed additional safety measures have not resolved the problems, staff will bring back a report to the Commission with additional recommendations for it's consideration. RECOMMENDATION To recommend that the Traffic and Parking Commission support staff's recommendations for providing additional safety measures at the intersections of Fernwood Avenue, California Avenue and Platt Avenue.

PURPOSE: To recommend that the Traffic and Parking Commission review the recommendations contained within the Traffic Safety Evaluation Enforcement and Engineering Analysis Report by Institute of Transportation. Studies (ITS) and make recommendations to the City Council. BACKGROUND: A traffic safety evaluation was conducted by the University of Berkeley, Institute of Transportation Studies per the City's request.. A two member Enforcement and Engineering team visited the City and evaluated both the Engineering Division's and Sheriff's Department existing traffic safety programs, completed a comprehensive traffic survey of the City and prepared an evaluation report (see attached). ANALYSIS: Staff has reviewed the recommendations detailed in the Traffic Safety Evaluation report and recommends the implementation of the findings. The following are key recommendations contained within the subject report: • Improve Accident Study Program • Improve Traffic Count Program • Improve Pedestrian Safety Program • Initiate Sight Distance Ordinance • Improve Work Zone Traffic Control Training • Improve Public Works Input Into the Transportation Design and Planning Process • Initiate Coordination Among Traffic Agencies 01 ITEM 8 • • o Initiate Traffic Policy Book o Improve Traffic Sign Program o Improve Traffic Signal Program The implementation of the ITS Report recommendations will require the appropriation of additional resources by the City. RECOMMENDATION To recommend that the Traffic and Parking Commission after review, recommend to the City Council the implementation of the recommendations contained within the Traffic Safety Evaluation Enforcement and Engineering Analysis Report. T07 -157 ITEM 8 2 0 Racing With Death Is Common at Blue Line Crossings ■ Danger: Staking out problem intersections, deputies average 86 tickets a day. Many offenders say they thought they were safe. By NORA ZAMICHOW TIMES STAFF, W RITER Each - week average of about 600 drivers race:acros Blue Line tracks and dodge crossing gates or make illegal turns front . of oncoming trains, according to a eriffs Departmen report released Mon- ,,ay. , Despite warning lights. bells, train whis- tles and descending gates, 7,760 drivers and pedestrians were ticketed for crossing in front of oncoming Blue Line trains during a 90 -day period ending in September, offi- cials said. The largest group of violators —about 40% —told sheriff's deputies that they had darted in front of the oncoming train because they "thought it was safe_" Anoth- er 28% said they had not seen any warning signals, and 25% said they. were in a hurry. "The volume of people who are willing to risk their lives at these crossings for these few extra seconds —it just amazes me;" said Loft Hubaud, director of safety and security for Raul Construction Corp., a subsidiary of the Los Angeles County Transportation Commission. From June 7 to Sept 4, the LACfC rail safety task force posted 10 deputies to monitor "problem" intersections. To snare violators, deputies sat in patrol cars that were hidden from view. Under the pro- gram, deputies wrote an average of tickets a day —up from the usual 16 cil Lions. Capt Frank Vadurro, commanding of cer of the Transit Services Bureau, whi patrols the Blue Line, said the program a be continued through June using eig sheriffs deputies. The deputies will deployed mostly along a 16 =mile corrid from Washington Boulevard in Los Ang, es south to Willow Avenue in Long Beal where trains reach higher speeds. Of the 7,760 people cited for cross violations, 1,500 were given a short qu< tionnaire which asked why they had 111 gally crossed and where they were you The largest group, 40 %, said they were route to work or school. `People are just in a rush to get the k to school, to get wherever they are goi: Pleue c CROSSINGS, Los Angeles Times Tuesday, December 8,199 0 IR CROSSINGS Continued from BI Everybody thinks they can beat the train, not realizing it's coming at 55 m.p.h.," Vadurro said. "The bells go on, and the gates go, and we are only inconveniencing the drivers for 55 seconds. There's absolutely no excuse for that kind of behavior " Since its start -up in July, 1990, the 22- mile -long Blue Line has been plagued by more than 130 accidents at rail crossings. Eight people have been killed and 56 injured, all of them motorists or pedestrians. Indeed, the Blue Line's troubled past has become a legacy that other train lines have sought to avoid. Before the Metro- link commuter rail line began ser- vice in October, transit officials launched a safety campaign to alert people to the hazards of trying to race a train to a crossing. Ewen so, Metrolink had its first fatal accident at a crossing in November, after only one month of service. Transit officials reviewed the Sheriff's Department's crossing study Monday at a Rail Construc- tion Corp. meeting, evaluating it in light of the recent Metrolink acci- dent in which a dump truck driver was killed. Officials do not know whether the driver in the Nov 25 accident at a Pacoima private crossing failed to see the train Blue Line officials have reduced the rate of train accidents each I year —a result, they say, of a safety campaign and heightened public awareness. But the crossing report illustrated a need to step up en- forcement and safety measures. In an effort to further reduce train accidents involving motorists and pedestrians, transit officials say they will request additional safeguards, such as increased pres- ence of deputies to patrol the intersections, use of cameras to photograph violators and their li- cense plates, increased fines for violators, who now usually pay a $55 citation, and a bilingual rail safety program.
