CALL TO ORDER The Traffic Engineering Committee meeting was called to order by Chairman Eriksen at 3:00 pm in Conference Room No. 3, Ukiah Civic Center, 300 Seminary Avenue, Ukiah, California. 2. APPROVAL OF MINUTES — June 14, 2016 Motion/Second: Thompson/Lampi to approve June 14, 2016 minutes as written. Motion carried by an all AYE voice vote of the members present. 3. AUDIENCE COMMENTS ON NON-AGENDA ITEMS none 4. OLD BUSINESS none 5. NEW BUSINESS a. Discussion and Possible Action regarding request for relocation of the Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) crosswalk assemblies to the school crosswalk at N. State Street and Magnolia Street. Chairman Eriksen introduced this item. Staff received a letter from Ms. Selah Sawyer, Charter Academy of the Redwoods, requesting relocation of the Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) crosswalk assemblies to the school crosswalk at N. State Street and Magnolia Street. The RRFB assemblies are not available because they are scheduled to be put at the Perkins Street Rail Trail crossing. These lights were temporarily located on a pole in front of fairgrounds. It is necessary to push a button to start the flashing of the lights. Member Kaeser observed that the crosswalk at Magnolia Street and N. State Street MINUTES of the Traffic Engineering Committee August 9, 2016 Page 1 is currently painted white and needs to be painted yellow. Chairman Eriksen stated that Staff recommends installation of standard school crossing assembly signs, removal of non-standard school signs and painting of the "SLOW SCHOOL XING" pavement markings. He added that the crosswalk could also be painted yellow. Council Member Mulheren stated that the Luce Street crosswalk poses more of a safety issue with crossing the street especially at night than the Rail Trail Perkins Street crosswalk. She thinks the flashing lights are needed there more than at Perkins Street. 3:11 pm Member Keith Hewett entered meeting. Pinky Kushner observed that when Healdsburg added a new stop sign at University Avenue at the ball park, they put up bright, fluorescent, plastic, crossed flags that were fixed to a pole to help drivers notice the new stop sign. These simple flags might help drivers notice the pedestrian crossing at the Perkins Street Rail Trail. Chairman Eriksen explained the object is to try to make pedestrians responsible for themselves when crossing streets. One action to promote this responsibility would be to have flags at the intersection for the pedestrians to carry across the intersection. Another action would be to have the pedestrian push a button to initiate flashing lights that indicate a pedestrian is in the intersection. The shark teeth that were added 2 years ago to the Luce intersection will be reevaluated and a decision will be made as to what is needed to make that area safer. Motion/Second: Eriksen/Thompson to remove the non-standard school signs, install standard school crossing assembly signs and paint "SLOW SCHOOL XING" pavement markings for the school crosswalk at N. State Street and Magnolia Street. In addition, yellow ladder pavement markings will also be added. Motion carried by an all AYE voice vote of the members present. 3:20 Neil Davis entered the TEC meeting. 6. COMMITTEE MEMBER REPORTS At last City Council meeting, the City Council members directed that the tow truck issue will be taken back to TEC for new ideas on how to make this item more palatable with a permitting process. 7.

Background: The Traffic Engineering Committee (TEC) received a request from Ukiah Valley tow truck companies to revise the City Code to allow tow trucks and commercial recovery vehicles to park in residential neighborhoods. In order to provide rapid response in emergency situations, 24-7, the tow truck companies requested to be allowed to park tow trucks and commercial recovery vehicles at employee residences. Discussion: Section 7154 of the Ukiah City Code(UCC)addresses parking of certain commercial vehicles in neighborhoods.The City adopted Section 7154, Division 8,Chapter 1,Article 10 of the UCC by Ordinance 638, §1 in 1973. Subsequently in Section 7154 the City adopted Ordinance 749, §1 in 1980 and Ordinance 939, §1 in 1993. Staff has prepared a redline revision to the City Code section 7154 as shown on the Attachment#1. This draft Ordinance adds an exemption to the City Code to allow tow service vehicles and commercial recovery vehicles to park in residential districts. The proposed Ordinance for introduction is included as Attachment#2. Staff reviewed the proposed change to City Code with the Planning Department to determine if the "project" triggered the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Upon review, the Planning Department issued a Notice of CEQA Exemption which was subsequently recorded at the Mendocino County Clerk-Recorder's office. A conformed copy of the CEQA Notice of Exemption can be found as Attachment#3. The TEC reviewed this request for amendment of the UCC at its meeting of June 14, 2016.

Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Revisions to City Code Section 7154 to Allow Tow Trucks and Commercial Recovery Vehicles to Park in Residential Neighborhoods. Member Ben Kageyama pointed out to the new member, Keith Hewett that he cannot vote on this item since he is a tow truck company owner. This item was brought back from the April 12, 2016 meeting at which time the TEC Committee reviewed a request to modify City Code section 7154 to allow tow trucks and commercial recovery vehicles the opportunity to park in residential zoned districts. The TEC Committee requested staff to revise the City Code and return it to the committee for review and discussion. Staff prepared a revision to the City Code section 7154 as shown on Attachment"A"which is a draft ordinance with a redline section that adds an exemption to the City Code to allow tow service vehicles and commercial recovery vehicles to park in residential districts. Adoption of ordinances MINUTES of the Traffic Engineering Committee June 14, 2016 Page 1 ATTACHMENT"4" is a two part process. At the first City Council meeting the ordinance is introduced by title only. At the second meeting, the City Council would adopt the ordinance. The changes then become effective 30 days after adoption of the ordinance. Motion/Second: Lampi/Thompson to approve the redline version of City Code section 7154 and recommend adoption of the ordinance to the Ukiah City Council. Motion carried by an AYE voice vote of two members. Member Kageyama opposed this item. Carla Meyer and Jarod Thiele abstained. Member Hewett did not vote. b. Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Proposed MTA Bus Stop at 671 South Orchard Avenue. Member Ben Kageyama introduced this item which was continued from the previous meeting of May 10, 2016. Staff received a request from MTA to establish a bus stop adjacent to the US Post Office at 671 South Orchard Avenue. A bus stop/no parking zone at this proposed location would occupy approximately 5 on-street parking spaces. Staff has not observed this location to be in high demand for on-street parking. Member Carla Meyer reported that the request for a bus stop in front of the Post office came from a senior who lives in this area. Many seniors have limited mobility and need access to the Post Office. MTA is not requesting a shelter for this area, only the painted bus stop/no parking zone. In the future, if it is found that this bus stop in not used, the area could easily be converted back to on-street parking. Carla has visited this area many times and has not observed a great demand for on-street parking in front of the Post Office. Member Kevin Thompson asked if there is a set standard for the distance between bus stops. Member Carla Meyer responded that the ADA sets the standard at '/of a mile between bus stops. She added that 5 parking spaces are the minimum needed at the bus stop for a 40 foot bus. Council Member Maureen Mulheren stated that the TEC Committee should consider this entire section of Orchard Avenue instead of piecemealing it all together. There should be a plan for the entire section of street instead of just meeting the needs of the moment. Member Ben Kageyama stated bike lanes are planned for Orchard Avenue. Orchard Avenue is wide enough to accommodate both the bike lane and the bus stop. Member Carla Meyer restated that MTA is not asking for a shelter so the bus stop could be easily removed if it is determined that there is not enough use of this one. She explained that visibility is always limited when a bus is stopped in an area but this is not an issue in this area. Member Ben Kageyama stated that a Post Office is the type of facility that warrants a transit stop and he is in favor of this bus stop. MTA should study the bus stops in the city and remove locations that are not needed. MINUTES of the Traffic Engineering Committee June 14, 2016 Page 2 ATTACHMENT"4" Member Carla Meyer stated she will be working on a grant to fund a consultant to study the trends in ridership on MTA and the location of bus stops could be a part of that study. Motion/Second: Thiele/Thompson to recommend the bus stop/no parking zone at 671 South Orchard Avenue for approval by the City Council. Motion carried by an AYE voice vote of five members. Carla Meyer abstained. 5. NEW BUSINESS a. Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Removal of Existing Crosswalk on North State Street at Fairgrounds Driveway. Member Ben Kageyama introduced this item. Due to concerns regarding the crosswalk at the intersection of North State Street with the fairgrounds driveway, the City Council authorized the construction of a new safety enhanced crosswalk at the intersection of Garrett Drive and North State Street to replace the existing crosswalk at the fairgrounds drivewaPnor to removal of any marked crosswalk, California Vehicle Code Section 21950y..5 requires a 30-day notice to allow for public comment. The 30-day notice for removal of the existing crosswalk has been posted on both sides of the existing crosswalk since May 18t and the end of the 30-day notice period will occur on June 17th. Selah Sawyer, Charter Academy of the Redwoods thanked the TEC Committee and the City of Ukiah for taking action to improve the safety of the crosswalk in the area of North State Street and the fairgrounds. The schools she represents are very happy with the new Garrett crosswalk and she is In favor of removing the old crosswalk. She asked if a barrier would be constructed when the existing crosswalk is removed to prevent pedestrians from crossing State Street in that area. Jarod Thiele responded that a barrier will be constructed in the area of the existing crosswalk when that crosswalk is removed. Motion/Second: Hewett/Thiele to approve the removal of the existing crosswalk provided no substantive comments are receivedprior to the end of the 30-day notice period on June 17th... Motion carried by an all AYE voice vote of the members present. 6.

Tow operators should be exempt from the ordinance and allowed to park in currently prohibited areas of the City of Ukiah as some professional tow drivers live in residential areas of the City of Ukiah and are on-call and are required to respond to emergency calls as requested by the general public and the Public Safety agencies at all hours of the day and night. It would be impractical to have our professional tow and recovery truck drivers leave their tow truck at another location that would delay their required timely response to Public Safety. It would also jeopardize these Tow Operators public safety rotation tow agreements which mandate an expedient response time from drivers at all hours of the day and night, 365 days a year. Respectfully, Chief Chris Dewey, Ukiah Police Department Sheriff Tom Allman, Mendocino County Sheriff's Office District Attorney David Eyster, Mendocino County District Attorney Office Chief Gerry Gonzalez, Willits Police Department Chief Fabian Lizarraga, Fort Bragg Police Department CHP Commander Bruce Carpenter, Ukiah CHP Office Attachment # �� 1' To: October 3, 2016 Traffic Engineering Committee—City of Ukiah Ukiah City Clerk Ukiah City Council Ukiah City Manager—Sage Sangiacomo From: Brian D. Kornegay 855 Yaqui Dr. Ukiah,CA 95482 707-462-5522 Subject: Request for change to Ukiah City Code 7154 to exempt Tow Trucks and Commercial Recovery Vehicles from the provisions of this code. Specifically to allow Tow Trucks to park in Residential areas within Ukiah City Limits. History: I just finished watching the video of the August 3rd Ukiah City Council meeting and it was questioned as to why this topic even came up. I am the reason this matter has been brought to the City Council and the Traffic Engineering Committee. Please allow me to provide some history on this matter. Currently the City of Ukiah has an adequate parking ordinance making it unlawful for commercial vehicles having a Gross Vehicle Weight(GVW) rating of 11,000 pounds or more from parking in residential areas.Although this code is sufficient for being able to control large vehicle parking in residential areas, it has for the most part gone unchallenged and unenforced. Ukiah City Code#7154. On April 30, 2015 I brought to the attention of the Ukiah Police Department that All In One Towing was parking a large tow truck in front of a residence on Washo Dr. in violation of City Code 7154.The reason for the complaint was that this tow truck not only parked in front of their residence but also parked in front of other residences as well. I for one would not like to have a tow truck parked in front of my house or adjacent to it and felt strongly enough about this to make the complaints. Due to the length of this vehicle it also blocked the fire hydrant on numerous occasions which required additional complaints from me to have it moved. The complaint was never dealt with and the parking continued for well over a year in spite of more complaints from me and requesting the status on the complaint. I was told several times by Captain Trent Taylor that they were working on the problem. Nothing was done and the parking continued. I was told at one time by a Community Service Officer that the owner of one of the tow companies stated to him that if they enforced this code that he would bring every piece of equipment he had that was under 11,000 pounds and park them on the streets of Oak manor I felt that this complaint was being swept under the rug and not given the attention as outlined in Ukiah City's Code Compliance Program as I had been making complaints for well over a year to no avail. (See Code Compliance Program attachment) Eventually I heard that the owners of the local Tow Companies were going to make a formal request for a change to Ukiah City Code 7154 to the Traffic Engineering Committee. I felt this was appropriate start to resolving this problem. I attended the Traffic Engineering Committee meeting and stated that there was no problem with Code 7154 other than it is not enforced. I researched many cities in California and found that all of the cities basically had the same code as Ukiah. I found only one city that allowed parking of tow trucks in residential areas and that is the City of Norco in Riverside County. Reference City of Norco Municipal Code Chapter 10.16 Commercial Vehicle/Trucks, Paragraph 10.16.050 Resident Exemption Permit. In Norco by code, parking is allowed but is done through a Permit process and has stipulations attached that must be met. My intention at the Traffic Engineering Committee meeting was to voice opposition to the Tow Truck owners request to change Code 7154. I feel this code that has been in place many years(although not enforced regarding Tow Truck) is sufficient and only needs to be enforced as is. In my opinion allowing Tow Trucks to park indiscriminately on residential streets is a safety hazard,takes away from property values,and causes a nuisance in the neighborhoods. Parking is already at a premium in many areas of Ukiah.All one needs to do is travel around Ukiah to see that. Parking Tow Trucks on already congested streets would only become a hazard.Tow trucks would be started and would be coming and going at all hours of the day and night taking away the benefits and atmosphere of living in a peaceful small town neighborhood. All the members of the Traffic Engineering Committee with the exception of one disagreed with me. I then asked if they were planning on allowing this Code change that they would at least consider looking at a Permit Process much like the City of Norco.This was denied also. Chairman Tim Eriksen stated that Ukiah already had too many permits. It was then voted and approved by all but one to allow parking of any Tow Truck or Recovery Vehicle in any residential area within Ukiah City Limits without restrictions, with the exception that vehicles would be limited to no more than 26,000 pounds GVW(Gross Vehicle Weight). Basically the tow companies were given a "Carte Blanche" in regards to tow truck parking anywhere in Ukiah with any type of vehicle. Discussion: In my previous letter to the Traffic Engineering Committee dated April 16, 2016 I outlined the reasons I think that Code 7154 should remain as is.After easily researching on the internet, I was able to find that most all cities I researched had basically the same type of ordinance as Ukiah has.Whether these codes are enforced I don't know,yet they do exist. After watching the City Council meeting video I would like to add a few points. I would have liked to attend that meeting however I was not available due to vacation. Having served in the Fire Service for 40 years, I am quite familiar with the use of Tow Trucks on Emergency Incidents. I have seen on a very few occasions where there was a call for an immediate need for a Tow Truck for a rescue situation. More than likely there is a request by CHP for an expedited tow truck to clear the highway.Tow Trucks are not"First Responders" and do not have red lights and a siren. The fire service in our area are the"First Responders" and are very adequately trained and ready for any type of rescue call they encounter. I have never seen a large recovery type Tow Truck(Flat Bed) used for anything other than dragging or pulling a vehicle onto its bed.This type of large Tow Truck can only drag or pull a vehicle off the road and to my knowledge does not have the capabilities to lift anything for any kind of rescue.What can the argument be for having this large type of vehicle parked at a residence in order to make a quick get- away? I do feel that these tow truck operators deserve to be able to make a quick response for the calls they receive but this needs to be done without the residents having to pay the price of having a tow truck parked in front of their house. I for one do not want one parked in front of my house, nor on our street. It would take up valuable parking space and cause my property value to fall in my opinion. One tow truck operator stated that he is a good neighbor when it comes to his vehicle and has helped each one of his neighbors by jumping vehicles, locked cars, etc. I don't need a Tow Truck parked in front of my house in case I have a dead battery or have locked my keys in the car. I would attempt to take care of it myself first.At last resort would I need a tow truck. One tow truck Owner/Operator stated that there is never more than one tow truck parked in front of the driver's residence.This is not true.Two tow trucks were occasionally parked Washo Dr. In fact if one looks at this Owner/Operators house on Google Maps Street view there are two trucks parked at his house. Not giving up an address but it is near the intersection of Alice and Cochrane Avenues (1 Tow Truck and 1 Recovery Vehicle.See attached picture). Here are a few points I would like to make regarding my opinion. 1.Tow Trucks are different from Large Recovery Vehicles. Recovery Vehicles have little significance when it comes to the capabilities of a Tow Truck.They are large and take up a lot of valuable parking space on our congested streets. 2.When this first request first went to the Traffic Engineering Committee I don't believe that enough thought was put into the effects the change to this existing ordinance would make or give much thought to the impacts it would have on our neighborhoods and property values. Our neighborhoods should be protected from large trucks that will be driving these streets at all hours of the day and night. 3.Allowing a change to this ordinance as the Traffic Engineering Committee recommended would allow these large trucks to park on any residential street in the City of Ukiah.There are too many streets in Ukiah that simply cannot handle large trucks,yet the TEC wanted to approve trucks up to 26,000 LBS GVW to use these streets. 4. Many cities throughout California and the nation have this same ordinance for a good reason.Why do we need to change an ordinance that is common practice nationwide? 5. I think a committee to work on this subject would be warranted prior to making any change that would have such an impact on our neighborhoods. It is my opinion that Code 7154 be enforced as is but if there is to be a compromise I ask the city council to consider the residents of the city prior to giving final approval.The impact of this decision will affect our streets and neighborhoods for years to come.Any compromise at all should be given fair notice to the residents of Ukiah and in my opinion be done completely by permit process. Conclusion: In conclusion I feel that our current Code 7154 is sufficient but only needs to be enforced and not ignored. Ukiah's Code Compliance should be adhered to.The current practice of just allowing this parking to occur is not acceptable and causes resentment among other residents where these Tow Trucks are parked.Tow Trucks and other Commercial Vehicles should not be allowed to park on our residential streets.

I (part), 1985) Attachment Ukiah City Code Compliance Program The City of Ukiah has established a code compliance program to ensure compliance with the City's laws and regulations for building, housing, land use, zoning, and environmental health.A high priority is placed on code compliance as a means of accomplishing adopted community goals,such as maintaining the quality of neighborhoods,avoiding nuisances, and protecting the environment. The code compliance process is conducted on a city-wide basis, and all complaints are treated equally and processed according to the same administrative process.The code compliance process is not intended to be selective or discriminatory against any one individual,group, area, or business.The City is legally required to resolve code violations that are confirmed through investigations and cannot simply dismiss them at the request of the property owner. The code compliance team responds to all complaints associated with Zoning and Building Code violations.Alleged code violations are investigated by the Police Department and the Planning and Community Development Department as they are reported or discovered and steps are taken to resolve confirmed violations prior to initiation of abatement procedures.The team develops abatement techniques, strategies,time lines for resolution of code violations, and works with the property owner to ensure voluntary compliance with local codes. The program emphasizes education by providing information to the public about the City's rules and regulations.This proactive approach helps to avoid inadvertent code violations and to reduce the number of cases.

October 3, 2016 CITY OF UKIAH MEMORANDUM DATE: November 3, 2016 TO: Traffic Engineering Committee FROM: Rick Seanor, Deputy Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Crosswalk on East Gobbi Street at Leslie Street Agenda Item 5a. REQUEST: Mr. Ray Berthiaume submitted his request, Attachment "A", to the Traffic Engineering Committee (TEC) regarding the crosswalk on East Gobbi Street at Leslie Street. Mr. Berthiaume uses a wheel chair and has reported some near misses with cars when crossing the street. DISCUSSION: On East Gobbi Street at Leslie Street there is a diagonally hatched white crosswalk located on the east side of the intersection. Curb ramps are located at both ends of the crosswalk. Gobbi Street at this location has three lanes: an eastbound lane, a westbound lane and a center turn lane. Traffic on Gobbi Street is required to stop at the intersection of Gobbi Street and Waugh Lane. To the east of the subject intersection there is a traffic signal at Gobbi Street and Orchard Avenue. A utility trench was constructed through this intersection leaving a short gap in the crosswalk. Please refer to the photograph, Attachment "B". POSSIBLE ACTION: Discuss and provide recommendations regarding the crosswalk. Staff recommends repainting the crosswalk. enc. cc: Mr. Ray Berthiaume file 'O.

"Confirmational" signage would simply identify the path exists. It could be partnered with Destination signage that informs that it is a route to Oak Manor School/neighborhood. I wonder what kind of signage is currently available to mark something like this and what it might take to have it installed? 2) Maintenance of above path from Orchard to Cal Trans Overpass—The city has made a number of improvements to this path in the last year or two. Is there a plan to resurface the path from Orchard to the overpass?Can we take steps to see it resurfaced? 3) Discussion re What Does,and Does Not, Come to TEC for Review—The City Council approved plans to go out to bid for the Brush/State Street Intersection.Apparently,these plans were not discussed at the TEC. I would like to better understand what projects do, and what projects do not, come to the TEC. 4) Removal of speed bumps on the Rail Trail on the end of East Clay Street—There are two speed bumps along the rail trail at the end of East Clay street.There is only one house/destination for cars past these two speed bumps.The Speed bumps are unnecessarily high and steep.There have been reports of bicyclists crashing from running into them. I question whether they are necessary and would like to see them removed. Let me know if this is too much at once. I understand if you would prefer to table#4 for a future meeting. Thanks, see you all soon.
