ANALYSIS:
Over three years ago, the City Council reinstated the Public Safety Commiss ion
(Commission), with the purpose of having the Commission provide recommendations to
the City Council with matters pertaining to the administration of public safety programs
(i.e ., vehicular traffic and pedestrian safety, vehicula r parking control, and emergency
preparedness). Since the reinstatement of the Commission, the City has completed
various public safety plans (i.e., Bike Master Plan, Downtown Parking Strategic Plan ,
and the City Wide Traffic Calming Master Plan) t hat will assist the City in proactively
addressing traffic and safety issues. The completion of the public safety plans provides
an opportunity to utilize the professional skills (i.e., engineering and public safety) of the
Commissioners in providing the City Council with recommendations for i mplementation
of the various public safety plans.
The proposed Ordinance , which was discussed by the Public Safety Commission on
November 13 , 2013 (see Attachment "D"), was to eliminate the Commission 's duty as
the hearing body for parking citations, to expand their duties to include transportation
planning, and to rename the Commission to the Transportation and Public Safety
Commiss ion. At the December 3, 2013 City Council meeting , the City Council
amended the proposed Ordinance by choosing to retain the Commission's authority as
the hearing body for parking citations. Therefore , Ordinance No . 13-986 modifies the
Commission's duties to include transportation planning as well as to rename this
Commission to the Transportation and Public Safety Commission. This will allow the
Commission to focus on community-wide transportation and public safety issues and
provide a comprehensive approach to address the overall well-being of the community.
CONCLUSION:
The City Council is requested to adopt Ordinance No . 13-986 amending Tit le 2
("Administration"), Chapter 6 ("City Commissions"), Article E ("Public Safety
Commission "), spec ifically, Sections 2680, 2681, 2683, and 2687 relating to the title and
duties of ff\e'P ul51TCS afety=Commisslon.

Ordinance No. 10-934 at the regular City Council meeting. At the regular City
Council meeting the City Council discussed: 1) Reinstatement of the Public

8 . On November 13, 2013, the Public Safety Commission unanimously approved and

9. On November 21, 2013, a Public Notice was publ ished in the Temple City Tribune
regarding proposed Ordinance No . 13-986.
ANALYSIS:
The Public Safety Commission (Commission) was reinstated for the purpose of
providing recommendations to the City Council with matters pertaining to the
administration of public safety programs (i.e., vehicular traffic and pedestrian safety,
vehicular parking control, and emergency preparedness). Since the reinstatement of the
Commission, a majority of the Commission's efforts have been focused on adjudicatory
matters (i.e., reviewing parking citation appeals) as the City had not yet comp leted its
public safety plans . Now that the City has completed the various public safety plans
City Council
December 3, 2013
Page 3 of 4
(i.e., Bike Master Plan, Downtown Parking Strategic Plan, and the City Wide Traffic
Calming Plan), moving forward, the Commission will be asked to provide City Council
recommendations for implementation of the various public safety plans. Staff is
recommending the following amendments to better reflect the Commission's proposed
role:
1) Reassign the adjudication of administrative citations. The proposed
amendment will resc ind the Commission's current administrative hearing
duties. The current citation appeal process is inefficient and out of
conformity with industry best practices. Based on research from nearby cities
(i.e., Rosemead, Arcadia, San Gabriel, Pasadena, and El Monte) with
parking citation programs, independent hearing officers are utilized for the
administrative hearings. This will assist with achieving the City Council's
goals, and Commission's duties which are pertinent to the safety and quality
of life for the community ;
2) Expand the duties of the Commission to focus exclusively on community-
wide transportation and public safety issues. By doing so, this will provide a
comprehensive approach to address the overall well-being of the
community; and
3) Rename the Commission to the "Transportation and Public Safety
Commission". The Commission and staff agree that this title properly reflects
the new duties of the Commission.
The changes outlined in the Ordinance more effectively utilizes the professional skills
(i .e., engineering and public safety professional backgrounds) of the Commissioners
and allows the Commission to focus their efforts on the overall well-being of the
community by incorporating transportation and public safety duties.
Staff will also be submitting to the Comm ission a resolution to change their current
regularly scheduled meetings from twice a month to once a month (i.e., second
Wednesday oMhe month)~edul1ng one meeting per month will prov1de staff
sufficient time to prepare reports and agenda packets, and allow the Commission to
thoroughly review them .
CONCLUSION:
The C ity has completed many public safety plans (i.e., Bike Master Plan, Downtown
Parking Strategic Plan, and the City Wide Traffic Calming Plan) that will assist the City
with proactively addressing traffic and safety issues. The completion of the public safety
plans presents an excellent opportunity to utilize the Public Safety Commissioners'
professional skills (i.e ., engineering and public safety professional backgrounds) to
provide the City Council recommendations for plan implementation. In order to properly
reflect the Commission's new duties to the public, staff is also proposing to rename the
City Council

Council is requested to introduce Ordinance No. 13-986 amending the title and duties

TO: The Public Safety Commission
FROM: Bryan Ariizumi, Public Safety Supervisor
Jonathan Aceves, Community Preservation Officer
SUBJECT: AMENDMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY COMMISSION DUTIES AND
MEETING DAYS
RECOMMENDATION:
The Public Safety Commission is requested to:
a) Approve the amendment to the Public Safety Commission duties and meeting
days; and
b) Recommend that the City Council amend section 2687 of the City's Municipal
Code, pertaining to the duties of the Public Safety Commission.
BACKGROUND:
1. On June 1, 2010, the City Council discussed the: 1) reinstatement of the Public
Safety Commission; and 2) amendment to the duties of the Public Safety
Commission. The City Council voted to discuss the reinstatement of the Public

Commission to review requests for hearings for the Parking and Administrative
Citation (e.g., animal control violations and others as designated by the City
Manager) programs (i.e., currently handled by the City Clerk). Ordinance No. 10-
935 amended the overnight parking restrictions and included the Pub lic Safety
Commission as the appellate body for overnight parking permit appeals .

3. On September 21, 2012, the City Council amended the Public Safety
Commission's duties to include overnight parking permit hardship appeals.
4. On October 3, 2013, the Public Safety Commission held a Special Meeting to
discuss their roles and responsibilities. The Commission requested that staff
provide a report and recommendation regarding their duties.
ANALYSIS :
The Public Safety Commission has been tasked with providing recommendations to the
City Council with matters which pertain to the administration of public safety programs;
including vehicular traffic and pedestrian safety; vehicular parking control; and
emergency preparedness.
In the first two-years of the Public Safety Commission's re i nstatement, the Commission
held administrative hearings for parking citations; rev iewed request for timed parking
(e.g., green curbs); and overnight parking permit hardships. The Commission also
reviewed and provided recommendations to the City Council with regards to the City's
Bike Master Plan, City Wide Traffic Calming Master Plan, and the Downtown Parking
Strategic Plan. Recently a majority of the Commission's efforts have been focused on
adjudicatory matters rather than community safety and quality of life issues. In fact,
since July 25, 2012, the Commission has held 26 meetings solely for the purpose of
adjudicating parking citations.
Preparing for administrative hearings requires approximately 12-hours of staff time (i.e.,
three staff members working four hours each). The adjudication process requires staff
to constantly update the citation processing program; schedule and notify the
appellants of their hearing date; gather all accompanying records of the citation, and
relevant facts (i.e., copies of the citation, evidence, statements, etc .). In addition, staff
compiles all the information to create eight agenda packets. The proposed amendment
1Ffefleve=ttte=eommssmn4rom atijutltcating-a-cttmmstratiVe-cilatrons~tnstead, an
independent hearing examiner will conduct the administrative hearings.
Provided the Commission approves staff's recommendation, transferring the
administrative heari ngs will allow the Commission to assume additional duties. Staff
believes that the Commission's current duties should be focused on matters which will
assist with achieving the City Council's goals, and are pertinent to the safety and quality
of life for the community. For instance, staff has been working with City Council and the
community with establishing a City Strategic Plan through the Make TC Happen
community outreach campaign. Staff feels that the Commission's abilities should be
focused on matters aligned with the City Strategic Plan. The City Strategic Plan
incorporates the City's various master plans which will assist the City in achieving short
and long term goals. Moreover, staff has recognized a need for transportation planning.
Public Safety Comm ission
November 13, 2013
Page 3 of 3
Staff envisions the Commission assuming transportation planning duties (see
Attachment "A"). For example, the Commission will be able to focus on making
recommendations for implementation to the City Council on the Bike Master Plan; City
Wide Traffic Calming Master Plan; the Downtown Parking Strategic Plan; and assist
with the development of the City's General Plan Update : Circulation Element.
Additionally, staff is proposing to change the current regular meeting schedule.
Currently, the Commission meets every second and fourth Wednesday of the month.
Staff is proposing meeting one day per month, on the second Wednesday. Scheduling
one meeting a month will allow ample time in -between meetings for the Commission to
thoroughly analyze reports.
CONCLUSION:
Staff is recommending the Commission amend their duties to align with the City
Council's goals, and to better serve the community by focusing on safety and quality of
life issues.
