7ze,, I J� ITEM _16-4-, CITY OF MOORPARK, CALIFORNIA City Council Meeting of c -2 7 c1 Z ACTT N: MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT 'BY' ��_ v: TO: The Honorable City Council FROM: Kenneth C. Gilbert, Director of Public Works DATE: February 8, 2002 (Council Meeting 2- 27 -02) SUBJECT: Consider Elimination of the Eastbound Right -Turn Lane at Spring Road from the Concept Design for the Widening of Los Angeles Avenue Between Spring Road and Moorpark Avenue [Project 80131 nTgrTTgqTnTTT A. Background In May of 2001, the City Council approved the conceptual design (Exhibit 1) for the subject project. In December of 2001, the City Council approved the Mitigated Negative Declaration for the project. B. Project Description Attached as Exhibit 2 is a brief description of the project. C. Surinq Road Right -Turn Lane: General Overview The conceptual design provided for the construction of additional street widening on the south side of the street just west of Spring Road, for the purpose of providing an additional right -turn lane. The impacts of the design component were to be investigated and evaluated. The purpose of this report is to address those impacts and finalize the design concept. Attached as Exhibit 3 are cross sections of the proposed improvements, describing certain design options generally summarized as follows: Ex. 3.1: the relocation of the curb eleven feet (111) to the south to accommodate only three through lanes of traffic; LA_Spg_Mpk_concept2 0000740 Los Angeles Avenue Widening - Spring Road to Moorpark Avenue Conceptual Plan February 8, 2002 Page 2 Ex. 3.2: the relocation of the curb seventeen feet (17') to the south to accommodate a fourth lane as a right - turn only lane; and Ex. 3.3: an alternative of Exhibit 3.2 showing additional landscaping and the elimination of parking spaces. Attached as Exhibit 4 is a diagram of the existing parking lot. D. Design Options: Details A more detailed discussion of the above design options is as follows: Exhibit 3.1: This option is the recommended plan. Design components include: • no dedicated right -turn lane; • curb radius at the corner lengthened to fifty feet (501) to better accommodate turning movements; • removal of the fountain; • six feet (61) wide sidewalk; • four feet plus (4 +') of landscaping (only 2' within the existing R -O -W); • retaining wall and handrail to be constructed at the edge of the existing parking lot curb; • easement to be acquired to construct the retaining wall and handrail; and • property owner to continue to maintain the landscaping [to be only four feet plus (41+) wide] . Exhibit 3.2: This option shows the impact of the additional widening required to accommodate the additional right -turn lane. Design components include: • a fourth lane as a right -turn only lane; • construction of a retaining wall and handrail approximately 2.5' south of the current parking lot curb (slightly shortening the existing parking spaces); • construction of a six feet plus (6.61) wide sidewalk; • no parkway landscaping; • acquisition of six feet (6') of additional right -of -way; and • under this plan the fountain would also be removed and the curb radius would be lengthened to fifty feet (50') to better accommodate turning movements. 000073 LA_Spg_Mpk_concept2 Los Angeles Avenue Widening - Spring Road to Moorpark Avenue Conceptual Plan February 8, 2002 Page 3 Exhibit 3.3: This option adds landscaping but eliminates parking spaces. Design components include: • a fourth lane as a right -turn only lane; • acquisition of six feet (61) of additional right -of -way; • a seven feet (71) wide sidewalk; • a handrail at the back of walk; • the construction of a landscaped slope just north of the proposed right -of -way line, to be maintained by the property owner; • provisions for nine (9) parallel parking spaces to replace the twenty -six (26) existing perpendicular parking spaces; and • under this plan the fountain would also be removed and the curb radius would be lengthened to fifty feet (501) to better accommodate turning movements. E. Recommended Option It is recommended below that the project not include a right - turn lane, as described by Exhibit 3.1. F. Future Tasks 1. Caltrans Approval: The design consultant is working with Caltrans to seek approval of a PEER report [Project Engineering Evaluation Report] for the project. 2. Right -of -Way Legal Descriptions: When Caltrans approval is obtained, the design consultant will proceed with the preparation of legal descriptions for the required right - of -way acquisition. 3. Final Draft Design Plans and Specifications: When Caltrans approval is obtained, the design consultant will proceed with the preparation of the final draft plans and specifications. 4. Construction: Construction of the project is planned for 2004. This project is totally funded by the Los Angeles Avenue AOC Fund.

REF. 1 1:1E NO. » NC 03/19/01 3 OF Exhibit 2 Project Description February 8, 2002 Page 1 1. General: The scope and intent of the project is to widen Los Angeles Avenue between Spring Road and Moorpark Avenue to accommodate six (6) lanes of traffic. 2. Project Limits: The limits of the project extend from Moorpark Avenue easterly to a point approximately five hundred feet (500') east of Spring Road. That portion of the work immediately east of Spring Road is necessary to accommodate a tapered transition of the striping and improvements, discussed in more detail below. The total length of the project is approximately 2300 feet. 3. Existing Right -of -Way and Travel Lanes: The existing right - of -way width along this segment of street varies from eighty feet (801) to one hundred nine feet (1091). The street is striped for four (4) twelve feet (121) wide travel lanes, plus a fourteen feet (141) wide painted median. 4. Design Standard: The design standard for Los Angeles Avenue calls for a curb -to -curb width of one hundred two feet (1021) within a street right -of -way of one hundred eighteen feet (1181). Accordingly, the "half- street" dimensions require fifty -one feet (511) from the centerline to the curb face, within a minimum "half street" right -of -way of fifty -nine feet (59') . 5. Project Objectives: The object of the project is to construct full -width street improvements within the project area, generally described as follows: - one 14' painted median; - six -12' travel lanes; - two- 81emergency lanes (unpainted bicycle lanes); - two -8' sidewalk / parkways; and - free right turn lanes where necessary. 6. Conceptual Plan - General Overview: In May of 2001, the City Council approved the Conceptual Design for the project. That design calls for the center line of the street to be shifted to the south eleven feet (111), between Millard Street and Spring Road. This will require a five hundred feet (5001) long transition west of Millard Street and east of Spring Road, between the "shifted" centerline and the existing centerline at the project limits. Although the plans requires additional right -of -way from the north side of the street at the west end of the project, most of the required right -of -way must come from the south side of the street. With this layout, the project will be able to provide the minimum fifty -one feet (51') dimension between the centerline and the curb. 000079 Exhibit 2 Project Description February 8, 2002 Page 2 7 Right -Turn Lane at Moorpark Avenue: The conceptual plan calls for an additional six feet (6') of street right -of- way and pavement width between Flory Avenue and Moorpark Avenue, to accommodate a free right -turn lane for west -to- north traffic. This will require right -of -way acquisition in this area to be fifteen feet (151) wide. ®01008® EXIST. S'LY R/W PROP. EXIST. s EXIST.

Councilmember Millhouse asked Ms. Lindley to provide a status report at the either the September 19th or October 3rd City Council meeting on parks construction and capital projects. 9. PUBLIC HEARINGS: None. 10. PRESENTATION /ACTION /DISCUSSION: A. Consider County of Ventura's Moorpark Road Realignment Project. (Continued from August 1, 2001). Staff Recommendation: Direct staff as deemed appropriate. Mr. Gilbert gave the staff report. Mr. Gilbert referred to stamped page 5, which shows the original County design. He stated the County has agreed to amend their design and the other option would facilitate what has been discussed with regard to through traffic through the intersection. He stated the best design is on stamped page 12, proposed by the County, and which is the original design amended to show striping, traffic signals and would prevent through traffic. In response to Mayor Hunter, Mr. Gilbert replied that both exhibits on stamped page 5 and stamped page 12 are County designs. In response to Councilmember Harper, Mr. Gilbert stated that with regard to the stamped page 7 exhibit, a cut made through the raised median is not a safe design and it would allow traffic to go through. In response to Councilmember Harper, Mr. Gilbert replied that the flaw on the exhibit on stamped page 8, is that it could cost a couple of hundred thousand dollars, and the right of way would need to be reconstructed. He also stated the design on page 8 would require a lot of modification and is not considered to be economically feasible. Councilmember Harper stated his concern with the County design is that it may be confusing to someone approaching the intersection. Mr. Gilbert stated that it is a 0v () ' ()�9 Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California Page 6 September 5, 2001 possibility and there is always a risk. He stated the best design is on stamped page 5, which is what city staff and the County recommend and which will move traffic efficiently and effectively. In response to Mayor Hunter, Mr. Gilbert replied that on stamped page 8, the objective of the wider width of the physical barriers is to have the two left turn movements offset enough so drivers are discouraged from going through the intersection. Councilmember Mikos suggested that for the design on stamped page 7, to keep the "worm design ", but have a cut away for the left turn that has an angle through the barrier. She stated the only other way to accomplish what the Council wants would be to use the design on stamped page 5 and put a barrier on Miller Parkway where it meets Tierra Rejada Road on the northbound traffic side, to prevent traffic turning onto Miller Parkway from Tierra Rejada Road. In response to Councilmember Millhouse, Mr. Gilbert stated that in regard to the design on stamped page 12 and to address the concerns of the area homeowners, that it is a good idea to stripe the north and south turn lanes and /or have Bots dots included to help guide traffic in those turning movements. Butch Britt, Director of Transportation, County of Ventura, 800 S. Victoria Avenue, Ventura advised he had no presentation and was available to answer questions. In response to Councilmember Millhouse, Mr. Britt replied that Bots dots and striping could be added to the turn lanes in the design on stamped page 12. In response to Councilmember Mikos, Councilmember Millhouse replied that he was suggesting Bots dots and striping for the design on stamped page 12, which is a better drawn design than the one on stamped page 5. In response to Councilmember Mikos, Mr. Gilbert replied that as noted on stamped page 4, paragraph 5 of the staff report, if the design on stamped page 12 is selected, which prohibits through traffic, it will be designed without the third lane. If, in the future, the Council decides on striping, signage and signal changes and if 0000090 Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California Page 7 September 5, 2001 through traffic is allowed, there will not be a right - turn lane for southbound Miller Parkway. In response to Mayor Hunter, Mr. Gilbert replied that on stamped page 12, the crosshatched area is striped. Mr. Gilbert stated that it is possible to raise the physical barriers and combine them on each side of the intersection. Mayor Hunter stated he would like to have the small barrier moved and make it an extension of the solid physical barrier on the south and north leg. Mr. Gilbert stated that all of Mayor Hunter's suggestions are possible refinements of the design. Mr. Kueny stated the design as drawn, would not allow the extension of a solid median north to the south, because there is a raised median directly north of the painted triangular section to the south leg. In response to Mayor Hunter, Mr. Gilbert stated if the design is to widen the southeast corner to allow for right turns to the east that allows the island to be flared. He stated raised islands are a refinement of this design instead of just striping and the County may agree to put the money from the right turn lane into raised islands and additional right of way. Mayor Hunter suggested in order to accomplish the objective, go back to the design on stamped page 12, leave the north leg intact and bring a triangular raised median from the northern terminus to further encourage a northbound to eastbound turn which makes it impossible to go straight. Councilmember Harper suggested to resolve the issue by taking the triangular raised island on Exhibit 4, stamped page 8, and putting it with the design on stamped page 12. Mr. Kueny stated to clarify the Mayor's suggestion is that the two right -turn lanes on Moorpark Road be moved to the east sufficiently enough at Tierra Rejada Road to keep traffic from going straight on Miller Parkway. He stated the design of the south leg should be left to the engineers; however, moving the lanes to the east allows the raised median to become a physical barrier. Mayor Hunter stated that to maintain the objective of the Council and to maintain an aesthetically pleasing design, Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California Page 8 September 5, 2001 using the design on stamped page 12, the eastbound and westbound lanes are unchanged, the north leg is unchanged, and the south leg would incorporate a physical barrier shown as a raised barrier on the north leg. In response to Councilmember Millhouse, Mr. Britt stated his understanding of Mayor Hunter's proposal and asked that the City Engineer stamp the revised plans and design changes. Mayor Hunter stated he wanted this item back at the next Council meeting for a report from the City Engineer as to the feasibility of this design as revised. Mr. Britt stated the County needs the City Engineer to stamp the plans. He also stated that the County would ask the Council to toll the statue of limitations on any potential legal action on the encroachment permit. Mr. Kueny stated that would require the plans come back for Council approval. Councilmember Harper stated he wants a document in the Council's packet regarding the City's exposure to any future litigation that might occur and language that the County will pay some portion of the improvements. He also stated he wants the City's opposition to the entire plan fully documented. Mr. Kueny discussed that the County was willing to pay some portion of the costs and that $70,000 for the right - turn lane would be saved and would help cover some additional costs for the revised design. Councilmember Millhouse discussed the history of County approval and the limited power and authority of the City pertaining to opposition or approval of construction of the roadway. He also discussed his concerns with the County's design of the roadway and why the City had asked for the input from the residents that will be affected by the new roadway. Mayor Hunter stated that a similar argument could be made for Miller Parkway as is made with regard to truck traffic on Highway 118. The roadway is not built to sustain that level of traffic. Councilmember Harper stated his preference to deny the County's encroachment permit request. 00003^0 Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California Page 9 September 5, 2001 Councilmember Millhouse stated that if the permit is not approved on some level and the County takes the matter to court, they will prevail and will then build the intersection as they want it rather than with the City's input. In response to Councilmember Harper, Mr. Montes replied that the issue of modification of the intersection would hinge on right of way and cost issues. In response to Councilmember Millhouse. Mr. Montes replied that the County can link the new roadway to Tierra Rejada Road, because the traveling public at large has a right, which is greater than the rights of City residents. In response to Mayor Hunter, Mr. Britt stated his agreement that the County could accommodate the two -week period for review of the suggested modifications to stamped page 12. CONSENSUS: By consensus, the City Council directed staff to bring back the final revised design concept at the City Council meeting of September 19, 2001. B.

Ms. Burns gave the staff report. 000093 Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California Page 10 September 5, 2001 In response to Councilmember Harper, Ms. Burns explained with regard to the 15 -year amortization period for older units, typically other cities are not interested in recouping the costs. She stated that the loans referred to in this report would be at Villa del Arroyo Mobilehome Park, where some of the repairs needed would be the same as in a conventional home; however, some of the repairs are unique to mobilehomes. In response to Councilmember Millhouse, Ms. Burns stated the program is not restrictive with the 700 loan to value ratio, because most of the mobilehomes are owned free and clear. She stated there is currently one application that does have a mortgage. She stated that allowing a refund to be in second position will not restrict one or two percent of the loans that the City would do. MOTION: Councilmember Harper moved and Councilmember Mikos seconded a motion to Modify City's Mobilehome Rehabilitation Loan Program Guidelines as follows: 1) Incorporate credit history and mortgage history standards from Housing and Community Development (HCD) Rehabilitation Loan Underwriting requirements; 2) Increase loan term to 15 years, both for 0% deferred loans (for Very Low Income households) and for 3% amortizing loans (for Low Income households); 3) Lien position to be no lower than 2nd position, in order of recording, unless HCD loan or combined HCD /City loan has already been made to borrower, in which case City loan position may be in no lower position than 3rd, behind an HCD loan or combined HCD /City loan in 2nd position; 4) Increase maximum loan -to -value for all liens (including anticipated loans of HCD funds and City Housing Trust funds) to 70% of current appraised value; and 5) Increase maximum City loan amount to $10,000, and maximum total loan amount to $20,000, of combined HCD and City funds.

Mr. Loftus gave the staff report. In response to Councilmember Harper, Mr. Loftus replied that Professional Design Associates does not have an in- house arborist; however, one is on call and the charge for an arborist and /or a landscape person is at the flat rate. Councilmember Mikos stated she has a problem with some of the tree selections in the City. She suggested the City place more emphasis on using California native plants. Mr. Loftus stated that the representative from Professional Design Associates would respond about their expertise with regard to the California native plant species. In response to Councilmember Mikos, Jeremy Laurentowski, representative of Professional Design Associates, 2139 Tapo Street, #213, Simi Valley, stated that Moorpark uses the Ventura County guidelines for the trees planted in the City. He stated his agreement with use of the California native species of trees in the City of 0190096 Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California Page 13 September 5, 2001 Moorpark and suggested the City have a manual with a plant palette for the selection of native trees and plants. In response to Councilmember Mikos, Mr. Loftus stated that many cities have their own guidelines; however, every city is different and as a city matures and becomes more attuned to its aesthetic needs, they tend to make their own guidelines. In response to Councilmember Mikos, Mr. Loftus clarified that if the Council has a goal to use different types of trees, this item does not address that issue, it addresses only a contract for landscape services. In response to Councilmember Harper, Mr. Laurentowski stated he did not have any cost estimates readily available with regard to doing a comprehensive review of the City's plant types. Mr. Kueny suggested that the Council take the action on this item and bring back the landscape guidelines item on a later agenda.
