He explained that the Council has a revised staff report in front of them (see Attachment D). He explained the process of conducting speed surveys and their importance towards enforcing speed limits. Council Member Luna asked if the public was going to be warned about the City's new enforcement policy. Chief Hegwood responded that there will be a public awareness campaign and then there will ultimately be enforcement. Council Member Clay stated that he does not like the idea of increasing the speed limits at all. He said that he felt there was justification for lowering the limits from the survey results because of our narrow roads, limited sight distance, no sidewalks, etc. Chief Hegwood agreed with Council Member Clay that he is also concerned about raising the speed limits, however, he is bound by certain rules and regulations with respect to the California Department of Transportation and the California Vehicle Code. Mayor Pro Tem Arrambide asked how often we can do speed surveys. Chief Hegwood answered that the time limit is 7 years. The Council expressed a general concern about raising the speed limits on local streets, especially near schools. City Attorney Roy Hanley responded that the speed limit around the schools will remain 25 MPH. Mr. McKinney explained that the State does not allow a "political" change to speeds recommended by surveys. If we do so, the surveys will be thrown out and the police would not be able to use radar to monitor speed. PUBLIC COMMENT: Rush Kolemaine, P.O. Box 1990, asked for clarification on signage in the city notifying the public of the use of radar. Chief Hegwood answered they are posted at the city limits. He also expressed his concerns of adequate speed limit signage. CC 01/26/99 Page 4 of 8 Approved as submitted DATE: 02/23/99 Robert Manning, 7400 Cortez, asked if since we don't want to raise the speed limits, why not leave the existing speed signs. City Attorney Roy Hanley responded that the police would not be able to use radar if the speed was posted lower than the speed surveys. Judy Murphy, 9320 Santa Clara Road, stated that she walks often and is concerned with the increase in the speed limits. She also said that more crosswalks would be convenient in between the long blocks on El Camino Real. Andy Arms, 7500 Graves Creek Road, thanked the Police Chief and the City for trying to control the speed problems in Atascadero. He suggested that the City focus on enforcement options. Chuck Wallen, Graves Creek Road, stated that the traffic on Graves Creek Road goes too fast. He also asked why Atascadero could not place a few crosswalks in between the long blocks with a signal light on El Camino Real. Bill Bright, 11875 Santa Lucia Road, suggested that they keep the blacktop narrow and put wide base shoulders on Portola Road to control speeders. Mayor Johnson closed the Public Comment period. There was lengthy Council discussion on this item. MOTION: By Council Member Luna and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Arrambide to adopt Resolution No. 1999-004 which formally establishes a speed limit on various city streets.

We talked of many subjects over the course of some 45 minutes. Foremost, was the concern I expressed regarding the conduct of the Council on the previous evening, especially the exercise of "synchronizing" the Planning Commission. I believe, under other administrations it was called "packing" . At that time, I told the Councilman that, as a matter of principle, I never undertake to say something ABOUT an individual or institution that I would not say TO that individual or institution. On occasion, I have expressed my concerns at this podium as well as in our local paper, however, I and others who have differing opinions, are finding it extremely difficult getting our views printed. So now I'm addressing the Council majority as an institution. At this podium and in the press, a political mentor of the majority stated that we could expect a"kinder and gentler council" in this administration. Well, based on the record of the last meeting, you still have a long way to go. Humiliation, intimidation and revenge are not characteristics of a healthy administration, and, consequently, have no place in this community. r The sacking of Jennifer Hageman was a display of pure political arrogance. This occurred when one Councilman, in his zeal to punish Ms. Hageman For doing her job, and, I suppose, almost unseating one of you, lost his place and made a motion before the Mayor had an opportunity .to create any appearance of propriety by having a "vote" on the issue. Ms . Hageman was double-teamed Humiliation and Revenge. She deserved none of this . She does deserve an apology and thanks for her service to the community. With the petty vote of "no confidence" in Chairman Zimmerman, another Commissioner who does his homework and arrives at informed, as opposed to uninformed, decisions, we arrive at Intimidation. If any of the survivors or newly sworn Planning Commission have any doubts about what serving at the pleasure of the Council means, just trying becoming unsynchronized and the Council' s pleasure awaits. Should there be any doubt, you only have to refer to the Oath of Fealty posited in the "Three Questions" asked of you and there should be no question in your mind. The whole process would have had more substance had the council majority displayed some political courage and named themselves the Planning Commission. They are already "The Council" the "Community Redevelopment Agency", so, 'why not the final act of defiance? There is talk that our city leaders should be shown more respect, and that since they were elected, they should be respected. Respect is not bought, it is not bullied, nor is it even elected, it is only earned by thought and deed. While I'm talking respect, let me say that some of your most ardent supporters show you no respect when they gather at the rear of the council chamber and conduct their own meetings Later, Eagle Creek came to the well again, this time to try to mitigate a safety concern, that of golf balls hitting the property adjacent to the driving range. The solution appeared to be to add 20 feet to the poles supporting the netting. I guess the Titanium drivers make em do that. If they ever make a driver out of Kryptonite, they may have to go to NASA for airspace clearance. It wasn' t the project, which was of concern, it was the process . When it became time for a vote, both Councilmen Lerno and Clay stepped down because of actual or apparent "conflict of interest" What is, and should be, chilling to the citizens of this city was not the fact that the vote was 2 to 1 for the project. In the future, in matters of land use, the quality of life in this community would be in the hands of two people. This is not representative government. It should not be the future of Atascadero. Thank you. 09-23-fp'Sle,09:23AM FROM E M R G CONSULT 1 NG GROUP TO 461 0 22 P.02 Attachmen#: Atascadero City Council Meeting Date: 01/26/99 S�r�luisDlrrspv�orrr�ty�i�i��or�n�llbr�rySurrreyJ3esults . overflew What follows are the survey results reported by question. Results are given for the sample as a whole and then in four regions in the county. The regions were as follows- These regions were drawn to allow for a stratified sample to be drawn. Results are given in percent response. A total of 1000 surveys were received in the following configuration: No.Registered Voters Regiort" Area Region A North County-Santa Margarita 39,000 North Region B Coast-San Simeon through Los 22,000 Osos Region C San Luis Obispo&Avila Beach 34,004 Region D South County-Shell Beach south to 36,000 Santa Maria border A total of 4200 surveys were mailed in late May '98 with 1000 returned for a 24% response rate. Survey returns were relatively consistent throughout the county. The smallest region total was for the north county because a separate mailing was to be done later in the summer to Paso Robles voters. In addition to the 191 surveys received in this mailing, 173 were also returned from Paso Robles for a total of 364 from the North County. Sampling Error for the survey was very low due to the large sample size: Sample Set Sample Set, sampling Error Total Survey 11000 1.6% North County 191 3.6% Coast 254 3.1% San Luis Obispo 271 3.0% South County 281 3.0% The standard of practice for most surveys and polls conducted today for sampling error is between 3.5%to 5.0%. The small sampling error within the regions allows provides the opportunity to discuss and compare this information and still have meaningful results. 1. 09-23-1998 09:24AM FROM E M R G CONSULTING GROUP TO 461604522 P.03 ���lu1sllt�lspo��r��ly�ity-�o�ntyLif�r�,ryStrlveyB�sul�s . 1. in general,how would you rate your local government in providing public services to you?

Attachment: D City Council Iledog#a%: 6 tFAig DATE: 01/26/99 City Manager's Agenda Report Wade G. McKinney Establishment of Speed Limit RECOMMENDATION: Traffic Committee recommends that Council adopt Resolution No. 1999-004 which formally establishes a speed limit on various city streets. DISCUSSION: Traffic and Speed Surveys are being conducted on various city streets to enable the Police Department to enforce speed with the use of radar. These.surveys are conducted in a method consistent with the requirements of the California .Vehicle Code (CVC) and the California Department of Transportation. Speed surveys are conducted by using radar equipment and an unmarked vehicle to chart the speed of at least 50 vehicles in each direction along a specified section of roadway. These figures are then calculated to determine the critical speed. Critical speed is the top speed at which 85% of the vehicles are traveling. Once the critical speed is determined, the posted speed is generally set within 5 miles per hour of this speed. For example, if the critical speed for a sectiori of roadway is 46 miles per hour, an enforceable speed limit can be set at either 45 or 50 miles per hour. The California Department of Transportation Traffic Manual states "In matching existing conditions with the traffic safety needs of the community, engineering judgement may indicate the need for a further reduction of five miles per hour." The factors considered in such a reduction are: limited design speed, limited sight distance, accident problems, substandard cross-section, poor intersection spacing,poor driveway characteristics, heavy pedestrian activity. Engineering staff has determined that a number of the residential street surveyed meet the criteria for additional reduction in speed for the reasons stated above. This determination is attached to, and becomes a part of the traffic and speed survey. Beginning January 1, 1999,speed surveys are valid for 7 years, and can be extended an additional 3 years upon certification by the engineer that no significant changes have been made in the area governed by the survey. ITEM NUMBER: C—3 DATE: 01126199 The alternative to speed enforcement by radar is what is called"bumper pace"which requires the patrol car to match the speed of the subject vehicle and note the speed at which both are traveling. FISCAL IMPACT: . The fiscal impact of this action is approximately$8500 to be paid out of currently budgeted funds. ALTERNATIVES: Discontinue the use of radar enforcement. Advantages: No speed survey is required. Speed limits can be set at any level. Disadvantages: Limits enforcement to bumper pace. RESPONSIBLE DEPARTMENT: Police Department ATTACHMENTS: Resolution No. 1999-004 RESOLUTION NO. 1999-004 RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ATASCADERO ESTABLISHING SPEED LIMITS ON VARIOUS CITY STREETS WHEREAS, Section 4-2.501, et. seq, of the Atascadero Municipal Code allows the City Traffic Engineer, through an engineering and traffic survey, to determine the appropriate speed limit for streets within the City;and WHEREAS, an engineering and traffic survey conducted by the Atascadero Police Department determined that the appropriate and safe speed for the roadways listed on attached Exhibit A.

S 40 _ . 5 53 Attachment: E Atascadero City Council • eting Date: 01/26/99 i ty o Atasca ero Funding Outside Agency Policy The City has a real responsibility to its constituents to meet it current obligations. Because of the financial realities described in the Comprehensive Financial Strategy, it is difficult to meet those obligations. The City is rebounding from a devastating financial period and it is crucial that the City's finances be put in order before any agreement is made to provide financial support or assistance to outside organizations. Therefore, the City will not fund special requests until certain financial milestones are met. The City'will first fund the operational needs of the various departments including amounts set aside for maintenance, operation and replacement of City vehicles, facilities and other assets. As the operational funding demands are met, the City will set aside funds for an unallocated reserve account equal to 50% of the then current operations budget to allow for cash flow and operational emergencies. While the City is building the necessary unallocated reserves it will also establish reserve accounts to fund the various liabilities of the City including capital replacement deficits, risk management and payroll responsibilities. Based on the City's current financial condition, it is unlikely that the City will fund any new outside requests. When the City has developed sufficient revenues to fully fund operations, necessary reserves, and liability needs,this strategy will be revised. As an interim strategy the City will only consider funding the following from City general funds: ❑ Requests that are consistent with the operational needs and core mission of the City; ❑ Requests that create revenue or reduce current expenses to the City; ❑ Requests that leverage non-City funds to benefit Atascadero; ❑ Requests from organizations that provide a service that if they didn't make it available,the city would have to find some way to do it on its own; ❑ Requests from organizations that show a history of responsible handling of funds through an executive director and board of directors, or financial officer to ensure an accurate accounting of whatever city funds are donated. Requests that meet the criteria above will then be reviewed to determine the following: • Are other cities funding similar requests in their area; • Are there other sources of revenue available to fund the request; 9 Is this a one-time expenditure or is it a request to fund ongoing operations.
