BACKGROUND On October 6, 1997, Council directed staff to pursue a range of lighting projects in the downtown area and in City parks and facilities through.the Capitol Improvement Program (CIP) process. (CMR:410:97, See Attachment A). Accordingly, several C~ projects were adopted in June 1998 as part of the 1998-99 budget. The approved projects include: Downtown Parking Lots (CIP#19920); Univ_ersity Avenue Intersections (CIP#19/508); City Parks and Facilities (CIP# 19902); Johnson Park (CIP# 19903); and Emergency Call Boxes (CIP#19916). Since there is a high degree of community interest in lighting levels downtown, staff has prepared this information report to update Council and the community regarding the status of these projects. The scope of these projects and the work accomplished since June of this year are described below. DISCUSSION Downtown Parking Lots The Utilities Department is leading a project to improve lighting in 15 City parking lots in the downtown area. The intent is to make the parking lots safer for vehicle and pedestrian traffic and to better conform to the guidelines of the Illuminating Engineering Society 0ES). The affected parking lots are listed in the staff report that is included as Attachment A. In this project, lower wattage luminaires will be replaced with 250 Watt high pressure sodium luminaires in order to raise the lighting levels. In addition, most 20 foot and 25 foot street light poles will be replaced with 30 foot poles to achieve greater light coverage. In some instances, lights will be relocated from underneath tree canopies and some single mast arm poles will be replaced by poles with double mast arms. CMR:431:98 Page 1 of 4 The poles have been selected and some initial design work has been completed. Bids for the poles have been received and orders will be processed in November. Delivery of the poles will take approximately 16 weeks from the order date. The start of construction will be delayed until Spring 1999 due to Winter weather considerations and to minimize disruptions downtown during the holiday season. Staff expects that the project will be completed in the Spring/Summer of 1999. University. Avenue Intersections Funding for improvements in lighting at several University Avenue intersections was included in the Downtown Urban Design Project with the goal of enhancing both safety and aesthetics in the downtown area. The project is a collaborative effort between the Utilities Department and Public Works. The affected intersections are at High Street, Emerson Street, Ramona Street, Bryant Street, Waverley Street and Cowper Street. The work to be done includes upgrading intersection safety lights from mercury vapor to more efficient high pressure sodium vapor lights to increase illumination. The signal poles and fixtures that are now obsolete will be replaced. The number of intersection lights will be increased, such that each of the six project intersections has four street lights. In addition, four 12 foot decorative poles with post-tops will be added to four of the six intersections. This will increase lighting at side street cross walks. Some of the underground conduits needed for the new lights were installed during}he recent downtown repaving project. Bids for the poles have been received and orders will be processed in November. Delivery of the poles will take approximately 16 w~eks from the order date. Preliminary design work has been completed and a Request for Bids will soon be issued for the construction work. The project is expected to be completed in Spring 1999. City Parks and Facilities A CIP was approved in the 1998-99 budget to address the issue of nighttime exterior lighting at City parks, community facilities and libraries. The Community Services Department will hire a consultant to analyze current lighting levels and recommend changes in lighting, landscaping and signage as appropriate to increase visibility and the feeling of safety for park and facility visitors. Attachment C lists the City parks and facilities that will likely be included in the study. A Request for Proposals is being finalized and will be sent in November. Current nighttime conditions will be assessed during the Winter, when the parks and facilities are at their darkest. Staff anticipates the completion of the consultant study in early Spring 1999. In future years’ CIPs, staffwill return with recommendations, a resource request and implementation timeline for the design and construction of the appropriate improvements. Johnson Park The Community Services Department will implement a range of lighting improvements in Johnson Park in order to increase light levels, visibility and perceptions of safety along the CMR:431:98 Page 2 of 4 park’s perimeter and its interior walkways. New light poles will be added and additional fixtures will be placed on existing street light poles. Preliminary design work has been completed and a Request for Bids is being developed for release in December. A public process will be conducted to .solicit community concerns and preferences as to lighting levels in this neighborhood park. In addition, the Architectural Review Board (ARB) will be consulted regarding the aesthetic impact of new light fixtures. Staff estimates that construction will begin in the Spring/Summer of 1999. Emergency Call Boxes The Police Department is working to install emergency call boxes in Johnson, Cogswell and E1 Camino Parks. These call boxes will be centrally located in the parks and will assist pedestrians in distress in two ways: when the call boxes are activated, they will provide a direct connection to Police dispatch and a blue strobe light will go on, providing a visible alert. The Request for Bids has been developed and issued. Installation will begin once a contract has been awarded. Staff expects to have the call boxes installed by Spring 1999. General Lighting Issues " In addition to the projects described above, several other lighting improvements are being planned. These improvements include parking lot lighting on Sandhill Roa~ lighting changes associated with the renovation of Mitchell Park and the addition of lighting in front of the Teen Center. There are several issues to be considered when designing lighting projects. The concerns and needs of the public must, of course, be identified. In some instances, these needs may be contradictory. Some residents might feel increased lighting is desirable in order to prevent vandalism and tripping hazards and to generally improve their feelings of safety. Other residents might prefer less lighting as a way to protect the privacy and calm of their homes. Likewise, some businesses may want to control the light levels around their establishments in order to promote a certain atmosphere. Also to be considered are the aesthetic impacts of lighting poles and fixtures, which are of particular concern to groups like the ARB. In addition, environmental groups may have concerns about energy use and efficiency. City staffmust understand and weigh these sometimes conflicting perspectives, while at the same time considering the IES guidelines which suggest the appropriate lighting levels for various public settings and uses. The City Manager’s Office has created a task force of staff members from the Utilities, Police, Community Services, Public Works and Planning Departments,which are responsible for various lighting projects. This group will meet as necessary to share information and address the above issues. In addition, this group will coordinate their efforts in order to leverage staff and contractor resources wherever possible to maximize timeliness and CMR:431:98 Page 3 of 4 efficiency in the completion of the lighting projects described in this report. RESOURCE IMPACT At this point, no additional resource impacts have been identified. POLICY IMPLICATIONS The information contained in this report is consistent with existing City policy. ATTACHMENTS Attachment A: Attachment B: Recommendations Regarding Safety and Lighting in the Downtown Area (CMR:410:97) List of City Parks and Facilities PREPARED BY: Audrey Seymour, Senior Executive Assistant CITY MANAGER APPROVAL: Assistant City Manager CMR:431:98 Page4 of 4 ATTACHMENT A City of Palo Alto City Manager’s Repo TO:HONORABLE CITY COUNCIL FROM: AGENDA DATE: CITY MANAGER OCTOBER 6, 1997 DEPARTMENT: CMR:410:97 POLICE UTILITIES PUBLIC WORKS COMMUNITY SERVICES PLANNING SUBJECT:RECOMMENDATIONS REGARDING SAFETY AND LIGHTING IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA RECOMMENDATIONS Staff recommends that the City Council directs staff to: 1)-include in requests for funds in the 1998-99 Capital Improvement Project (CIP) funding for: 2) a) b) c) d) increased lighting in downtown City parking lots that would make levels more consistent with Illuminating Engineering Society’s (IES) guidelines; additional lighting at Johnson Park; a formal study on lighting needs at other City parks and facilities; installation for emergency notification units in Johnson and E1 Camino Parks; initiate formal discussions with the Joint Powers Board (JPB) regarding specific upgrades and funding for additional lighting in the JPB parking lots east of the railroad tracks; and 3)conduct a more detailed analysis to develop a proposal to increase the number and location of additional pay telephones in the downtown area. CMR:410:97 Page 1 of 9 BACKGROUND After the tragic homicide of Herbert Kay in early summer, the City Council at its June 23, 1997, meeting, asked the City Manager to work with staff from the Police, Utilities, Public Works, Planning, and Community Services Departments to determine which streets and public facilities might need additional lighting or tree trimming to increase safety,; and to return to Council with a report on what, if any, additional police crime prevention resources might be needed to enhance prevention and safety efforts. This report provides information and recommendations associated with the preliminary review of those issues. DISCUSSION Before presenting the findings of the preliminary evaluation and the associated conclusions that have led to the recommendations, staff believes it is important to provide some limited information about the Kay homicide. Because the case is still under investigation and still sealed at the direction of the District Attorney’s Office and the Court, specific details about the incident cannot be released at this time. However, it is still possible to share-the fact that the incident was a random act that could have occurred at any location, in any city, at any time, or under any lighting condition. The brutal reality is that the only certain way thisMolent crime could have been prevented from occurring was if a police officer had been on that street at the time of the attack. Because this.is not realistic, the evaluation of the conditions listed dbove and the development of the associated recommendations .provide only means to improve and enhance the perception of safety and should not be construed as absolute affirmations that such acts will not occur in the future. In response to the City Council’s assignment, a committee was formed with representatives from the City Attorney’s Office, Police, Public Works, Utilities, Planning, and Community Services Departments. The committee conducted preliminary evaluations into several areas ¯ including: street and sidewalk lighting, tree trimming, parking lot and garage lighting, park lighting, emergency notification systems, and police crime prevention resources. The intent of the evaluation was to determine what, if anything, could be done to increase safety and the community’s perception of safety. While the committee focused on the downtown area, at the Council’s direction, some recommendations developed involve further study at City parks CMR:410:97 Page and facilities in other parts of the community. For this report, the downtown is defined as the area bordered by E1 Camino Real to Webster Street and Forest Avenue to Lytton Avenue. Street and Sidewalk Lighting The Utilities Department, who owns and is responsible for most streetlights, follows IES guidelines when designing roadway and parking lot lighting systems. Guidelines issued by IES are simply recommendations and not meant to serve as legal standards. The main purpose of providing lighting is to safeguard, facilitate and encourage vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Lighting levels should accommodate the visual needs of vehicular and pedestrian nighttime traffic. For street lights, the average recommended luminance is between 0.3 and 0.6 foot candles measured from the ground, depending upon the area classification (e.g., commercial, intermediate, residential). By utilizing an average foot candle, some areas are much darker and some lighter, depending upon the height of the light pole. Lights on shorter poles create ,hot spots" and therefore require more fixtures to light an area. It is important to emphasize ttiat street lights are intended to illmninate streets and not sidewalks. The Utilities Department tries to meet these guidelines whenever possible. Sometimes, the design has to be modified due to different field conditions such as trees, buildings, and the layout of the streets. _ The Downtown Urban Design Improvements Master Plan was recently approved by the City Council. Council has also approved the details and funding for the .completion of Phase One of the Plan. Phase One includes improved street lighting at major intersections and comers on University Avenue. Work on Phase One should begin in Spring of 1998. The acorn lights on University Avenue will be raised to 12’-13’ in height; luminaires with the same form but With less glare will eventually replace the existing acorns and will create pools of"white" light With more natural color rendition. Those additions and improvements will create adequate lighting for the sidewalk area on University Avenue. Elements of Phase Two have generally been discussed, but funding and specific details have yet to be developed. Some preliminary consideration has been given in Phase Two to inclusion of side street lighting for the area. These elements include improving the side street sidewalk areas, especially on Florence and Kipling Streets where both one block sections are used for access to public parking and dead-ends at University Avenue, and for installation of moonlights in trees to create additional lighting for pedestrian areas. Staff does not anticipate the development of specific recommendations or funding requests until 1999. If Council feels that the work on the side streets should be expedited, staff would need specific direction in that regard. CMR:410:97 Page 3 of..9 Tree Trimming Coordination with the City’s Tree Management Program to improve street and parking lot lighting is required to achieve IES lighting guidelines. Trees provide shade and cover while street and par’king lot lights are designed to provide illumination. When trees are next to light fixtures, a conflict occurs if the tree growth interferes with the intended light pattern. After a preliminary analysis of the street lighting conditions in the downtown area, staff determined that possible removal of a few trees and!or possible relocation of street lights is needed in order to meet IES guidelines. The nimming will be accomplished as part of the regular tree management program. Trimming frequency of London plane trees on University Avenue has been changed from a five- year to a three-year cycle. The more frequent trimming will not only reduce leaf drop, but also provide improved lighting. The next tree trimming along University Avenue is scheduled to be completed before the holiday season. Trees along the side streets off University Avenue will be reviewed every three years and will be trimmed on an as needed basis. The Downtown Urban Design Improvements Master Plan includes ongoing car~ and prtming programs to optimize the trees’ Vigor and appearance. The Plan also addresses the species selection to identify preferred replacement trees, with the intent that the replacements should be similar in-character to those that would be removed. Parking Lot and Garage Lighting Utilities and Public Works Departments staff conducted an assessment of lighting in all downtown parking lots. Utilities is responsible for maintaining the lights in 15 downtown open parking lots where standard utility light poles and luminaries have been installed. All of the lights in the downtown area, including those in parldng lots, have been upgraded during the last ten years as part of a Capital Improvement Project to convert all City street lights to the more efficient high pressure sodium luminaires. In 1994, in an effort to increase the lighting in the downtown lots, Utilities upgraded many of the fixtures to 150 watts. The result has more than doubled the average light levels in the downtown lots. Based upon the most recent assessment of parking lot lighting, Utilities staff compared existing light levels with IES guidelines for open parldng facilities. The intent was to assess the lighting needed for pedestrian safety in a medium activity parking lot. The recommended level is 0.6 foot candles at ground level. The assessment concluded that in order to achieve the light level consistent with IES guidelines, existing lamps would have to be retrofitted and/or the number of poles and Iuminaires would have to be increased where necessary. CMR:410:97 During the assessment, Utilities staff studied the photometric analysis of the existing and proposed recommended changes. Where new street light poles and luminaires are recommended for installation, locations were chosen carefully to avoid any conflicts with existing trees in the area. Where alternative locations were not feasible, trees would need to be trimmed to maintain the desired lighting levels, Attachment A provides a summary of the upgrades and retrofitting that is-recommended for downtown parking lots. The City receives a number of claims resulting from people tripping and/or falling in parking lots. The recommended upgrades in the lighting levels in parking lots should not only enhance people’s perception of safety but also provide better illumination to help reduce these accidents. Lighting levels in the City parking garages in the downtown area have already been addressed. Significant "white and light" improvements resulting from painting and improved lighting were made in the Civic Center and Lot Q garages. The City is currently in the process of preparing for some improvements to the Webster/Cowper garage. Staff also conducted a preliminary review of lighting levels at the JPB parking lots east of the railroad-tracks, both north and south of University Avenue and concluded that some upgrades would be needed. Costs for the upgrades are estimated to be approximately $50,0b0. JPB staff indicated in an initial conversation _that they would be willing to entertain ideas to improve the lighting in their lots. Further discussions would be required to determine specific upgrades, costs, and funding. Staff recommends that Council direct staff to proceed with formal discussions in this regard. Due to the Council’s direction to focus on the downtown area, staff has not conducted an assessment of lighting levels in other City parking lots in the California Avenue or Midtown areas. Downtown Parks In addition to street, sidewalk and parking lot lighting, staff also looked at downtown parks to assess lighting levels and safety considerations. They included Johnson, Scott, Cogswell, and El Camino Parks. The illumination was increased in Cogswell Park about a year ago when the trees and shrubs were trimmed and additional lighting installed. Staff has determined that additional lighting is not needed in Scott Park. While. outside the boundaries of the defmed downtown area used for this report, due to the proximity to the downtown and the number of complaints that have been received from citizens, Community Services staff and the CIP Design Consultant conducted a preliminary lighting CMR:410:97 Page analysis of Johnson Park. Staff concluded that the four existing light fixtures do not provide sufficient light on the pathways and in the middle of the park. In addition to tree trimming that needs to be completedin the middle of the park, the installation of seven new acorn luminaries around the park perimeter, the addition of two cobra head fixtures on existing light poles at the intersection of Kipling and Hawthorne Streets, and conversion of two fixtures to luminaries in the center of the park are recommended. Cost for this work is estimated to be about $21,000. Before the lighting improvement plan for the park would be finalized, Community Services staff would ensure that input was received from members of the Downtown North Neighborhood Association. Staff also briefly looked at the lighting situation in E1 Camino Park. The initial review indicates that some additional lighting would be beneficial. Due to the size and location of the park, a more detailed study would be needed before specific recommendations could be.developed. Because the focus of this assignment was the downtown, staff has not developed any recommendations regarding security and lighting at other parks, around libraries, or City community centers. However, staff believes that a formal analysis should be conducted to determine what lighting improvements would be needed to enhance user safety for E1 Camino Park and other City facilities. Depending upon the scope of work, costs for a lighting study would range between $15,000 and $35,000. Staff will return during the 1998-99 Budget process with a more detailed scope of work and more precise costs for the study. Emergency Communication Systems In addition to lighting, a person’s sense of safety is Often enhanced by their ability to request assistance in emergency situations. As. a result, staff reviewed three types of emergency communication mechanisms: police call boxes, emergency "blue phone" units, and traditional pay telephones. Police call boxes are used in some cities, providing direct communications to police dispatch centers. However, they have significant limitations. The call box connection to the dispatch center is made on a regular business line, not a 9-1-1 line, because of the way they must be installed. In addition to initial purchase and installation cost of $400 per unit, there are ongoing costs for monthly telephone line usage (about $20 per line per month), maintenance and cleaning. Emergency "blue phone" units, like those that were recently installed around Stanford University Campus, reflect a newer technology than call boxes. Not only have they been installed on college campuses, but also along freeways. The units can be powered by direct current using solar power battery packs or alternating current with a hard line telephone CMR:410:97 Page 6 of .9_:. / ~ connection, or a combination. The system can be used for 9-1-1 use only or for non-emergency type calls. The added feature to these units is the flashing strobe light that is activated when the emergency button is pressed. The strobe light draws attention to the area as it generates one million candle power. The system does require daily checks to ensure proper operation. The units are quite expensive, with a one time cost of about $18,000 per unit and annual maintenance costs of almost $400 per unit. A review was completed to determine the number of units needed for adequate coverage in the downtown area. Staff estimates that approximately 27 units would be needed. Traditional pay phones are also used as an emergency communication mechanism. While there are telephones in businesses in the downtown area, a quick assessment revealed that there are only about ten outside pay phones. Pay phones do provide users with the ability to request emergency assistance by dialing 9-1-1 without charge. Initial cost for pay phones ($400) is about the same for call boxes and considerably less than "blue phones." A monthly service charge is required if the revenue generated by the individual unit is less than $40. Staff has determined that while the "blue phone" system is probably the most effective for emergency notification, the amount of funding needed to purchase,, install, and maintain a system with adequate cover is cost prohibitive. However, after reviewing the nfimber of calls for service in some of the downtown parks, staff recommends the installation of a unit in Johnson, E1 Camino, and Cogswell Parks.. Staff will consider including request for funding for these units in the 1998-99 CIPbudget. Ira unit is approved in E1 Camino Park, it is possible that Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority may assist in its fimding. Staffwill continue to pursue the placement of more pay phones in the downtown area that are available on a 24 hour basis. Police Crime Prevention Resources A part of the Council assignment was to review the level of police crime prevention resources to determine what, if any, additional resources may be needed. Staff believes that additional police personnel, other than those recommended in the staff report on the evaluation and recommendations associated with the Downtown Health and Safe~y Detail (CMR:411:97) are not warranted. While an increase in the number of police officers obviously adds to visibility, there is no guarantee that such incidents like the Kay murder would not occur. Based upon the currently authorized number of officers in Palo Alto, together with the relatively low violent crime rate compared to cities of similar size, staff cannot justify a request for additional police officers at this time. CMR:410:97 Page 7 of~9 ! ~ As part of the Police Department’s implementation of its community policing philosophy, there are potential strategies that may be applied to increase individuals’ sense of safety and reduce the potential for crimes to occur. Because crimes, especially violent incidents,, are often connected to the use of alcohol, recent efforts have been made to educate owners, managers, and bar tenders of restaurants and bars all- over the City about Alcohol Beverage Control laws, monitoring alcohol consumption of patrons, how to handle unruly patrons, when to call the police, etc. This Bar Safe Program wi!l be continued in the future. Another strategy Police staff will be pursuing includes the offering of personal safety classes for citizens. There are a number of simple tips and tactics that individuals can use to decrease their vulnerability and enhance their personal safety while outside their homes. Several classes on personal safety were presented by the Police Department some years ago. FISCAL IMPACT Preliminary cost estimates for the recommendations that staff will include in the 1998-99 CIP budget are as follows: 1) 2) 3) 4) Increase lighting levels in the downtown City parking lots - $156,000 Upgrades of lighting in Johnson Park - $21,000 Installation of emergency notification units in Johnson, E1 Camino, and Cogswell Parks - $54,000 Study of lighting needs at E1 Camino Park, other City parks and facilities - $15,000- $35,000 The cost for upgrades to lighting in JPB Lots is estimated tobe about $50,000. At Council direction, staff would work with JPB regarding funding and return to Council with additional information. POLICY IMPLICATIONS All lighting upgrades that would be completed would be consistent with the Downtown Urban Design Improvements Master Plan. CMR:410:97 Page 8 of~.~ ( 2~" ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT Feasibility and Planning studies are statutorily exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). As projects are developed and specific proposals are made, additional CEQA review may be required.
