The recommendation was to adopt Alternative "B" median design, a continuous raised island with planting pockets. This design was to 'replace any existing striped asphalt median when adjacent development takes place. This development would construct the islands and then the City would assume the maintenance. At their December 2, 1980 meeting, Council approved the recommendations presented by staff. Since that time, various developers have continued to argue the issue of raised islands, persuading the City to waive this require- ment in some instances. Because of this, staff has been directed to bring this issue up for further review. RECp ^^[pA^iON Staff recommends Alternative "A", a continuous raised median island approximately seventy percent (70%) 'textured concrete and 'thirty p -? r c e n t (30%) p 1 ant i. n g a r e a . T:te following costs are in 1982 dollars for a full system which will be built in segments as the City grows, until build-out of the City, approximate year 2030. Maintenance (Yearly) - $ 68,544 Construction = $8,539,440 A) A continuous 18 foot wide raised median island. The surface of the island would be approximately 70% 'textured, colored concrete and 30% planting area. This alternative is the same as Alterna- tive "B" which the Commission previously approved but lias minor- design modifications to the planting areas. See Attachment "A" f o r s ch ema t i c d e s i g n. Cost: Figures for build-out in 1982 dollars. Yearly Maintenance = $ 68,544 Construction = $8,539,440 B) An asphalt surface median with outline striping, reflector bumps and diagonal hash lines with written identification as an "emergency lane". See Attachment "B" for specific design. Cost: Figures for builc-out in 1982 dollars. Yearly Maintenance = $ 18,480 Construction = $1,814,440 C) This alternative combines the medians in "A" and "3". Using raised islands at both sides of each intersection, it extends the raised portion behind the left hand turn lane. These Islands will then control traffic at intersection arid provide some planting space to enhance the streetscape of the City. The remainder of the roadway would be treated as per Alternative "B", a striped asphalt street surface; see Attachments "C-l" and "C-2" for schematic design. • - _. Cost: Figures for build-out in 1982 dollars. Yearly Maintenance = $ 39,690 Construction = $3,247,296 DISCUSSION The primary purpose of raised median Islands Is to physically separate the two directions of traffic. The objectives of this separation are to increase the efficiency of the roeic as a high volume traffic carrier by reducing and controlling points of left turn Intersections and to create a buffer between automobiles. These objectives will become more important as the City's population grows and the road system starts to carry the volumes they have been engineered for. Consider El Camino Real at Highway 73 as an example. If the arterial road system is built without raised median islands, the result could be: 1) The construction of spot islands at Intersections and other key areas where problems have occurred. This work would most likely be performed and paid for by the City. 2) The City may have a continual maintenance problem on El Camino Real's existing asphalt median because It was not constructed to withstand heavy traffic weight. (The median at the Palomar Transfer Station is an example). The construction of on-going maintenance has been addressed in staff's recommendation of Alternative "A". This solution has reduced the planting area to 30% of the total full weight island and drought tolerant plant material will be used exclusively in the form of low mounding shrubs and smaller scale trees. The final consideration is how this roadway standard and its proposed treatment will affect the character of the City. The importance of 2 - from sta f f's an-goi ng "Streetscapes create a large part of the linage projected by a city. An efficient, well laid-out street system is, of course, mandatory but beyond these street improvements is the setting which the road moves through. The visual character or ambiance of these areas greatly affects the enduring impression created while traveling through the city. Plantings and other land- sca.pe features in and adjacent to the road, create a visual foreground adding to the city's perceivable image". If Alternative "A" is again adopted, the design of the textured concrete arid character of the planting will be selected to help create individual landscape themes for each of the main arterial routes in our City.

SECTION •'.;</?-- EVYFE: fiOVEMIiER 15, 1980 "'nECT: MEDIAN LANDSCAPES The City Manager lias requested that staff incorporate a median design into the recent;? adopted City Standards. Staff has responded to this request by developing two design eE; :er-< nates. Alternate A consists of full landscaping with a two-foot concrete strip along the sides for maintenance and safety purposes. Alternate B consists of 2.3-foot bands of land- scaping separated by 50 feet of textured concrete. The Alternate B landscape areas wil~; also contain the two-foot concrete scrips along each side. The Engineering Department is recommending the adoption of Alternate A, while the Parks and recreation Department is recommending Alternate B. The issue is being presentee! to your commission for their recommendation. Staff feels the issu-ws to e>e considered In reking a decision on the matter are safety, economics, aesthetics and ee;v i rG-wwentai. The .'V; lew: ing is a brief discussion of each of these issues as they relate to the two alternates. Safety^ The primary safety considerations are the provision of adequate sight distance at inter- sections and keening obstructions away from the roadway.. Both alternates are about aceef; In this regard. Each terminates the landscaping sufficiently away from the intersection to pro- vide adequate sight distance. Each will contain trees which conic! serve as obstructions fc^ out-of-control vehicles. However, both designs are located in a raised median with all trees situated at least seven feet off the roadway to reduce the likelihood of this """ The economic considerations should take into account both initial cost and lone-to •.w!';te,;ance cost. Alternative A with the full landscaping will initially cose the least develop. However, Alternative B with the greater amount of concrete v;ili provide a sebe- tial savings in the overall maintenance cost to the City. Please refer to the attach-d Chart A for a detailed breakdown of these estimated costs. For both alternates, staff h attempted to reduce maintenance cost by requiring native and other drought-tolerant plan- ar:c- by utilizing lew flow bubbler or drip irrigation systems. A less evident economic -•.'• is the effect attractively landscaped medians would have on drawing additional shopp^s the City thereby increasing the City's economic base. Aesthetics is a difficult consideration to objectively discuss. Aesthetics is cener;r 3 matter of personal preference. It could be assumed that the r.ore- concrete used (ever; colored textured concrete), tho less aesthetic will be the appearance, but not everyon:- v..v.:"' agree with that- statement. Beyond the initial aesthetic consideration, the City could/rcr- a therwrtic approach to the median landscaping: for exar.nle, Spanish and California native plants along the hi Camino Real Scenic Route; California coastal along Carlsbad Boulevard; cvuj f!edi tf^rranean along Rancho Santa Fe. Such landscape dosinns could become a unioua an.! distinctive asset to the City. F.nvirnn':ient Environmental considerations are generally ignored in n-akincj decisions such as tins, but their effects, though very subtle in nature, can greatly affect the spirit of a local communi ty. As Carlsbad evolves front the peaceful sororw- beach cwjin.-inn i' y it once was into :: fa.-t- !!aced urlian subLirbia, w i;:ust: decide what i!: is that giv^r, a C'v-.-unitv a sor.'.e of !;ein:; an; di rec -r.ion. Is "it solely the population density of the concrete-covered urlvMi jungles that ir..-;es City dwellers emotionally detached and crime rates soar or is it that past City plan- . ners didn't recognise the importance of the human need for contact vrith nature on a daily bc> sis? StuFf can't ansv;er that, question, but it is a fact that p"Idirts do play a signifi — cam: role in sustaining the ecology of the local environment. Hot o;ily do plants provi? refuse and forage for insects and wildlife, they also help control the local atmospheric environment by reducing tlie heating effect of the roadway pavement, by releasing oxygen and hy filtering out atmospheric pollutants, including that of automobile exhaust. A well- landscaped median can also reduce local noise levels. Alternative A maximizes these beneficial environmental arid community effects while Alternative B only -minimally does so. As aciditional background, we have included a few statements fro;-i the City of Carlsbad's General Plan elements that concern landscape planting: Scenic Highway Element., Section-Gc, Pages 12-13 - "...where applicable establish regulations and guidelines regarding...preservation and re- storation of plant, materials..." Traffic Circulation Element, Paragraph 14, Page 7 - "Design roads to enhance scenic areas; encourage roadside and median landscaping." 'traffic Circulation Element, Section 4, Paragraph 3, Page 10 - "A divided arterial provides an outstanding opportunity to improve the appearance of the street and of the community by attractively land- scaping the dividing median." Open Space and Conservation Element, Section IT of Goals end Policies, — Subsection A7, Page 7 - "...to conserve and encourage the use of all forms of vegetation needed to...(b) protect air water resources and (c) protect and enhance visual resources." ,> In conclusion, Engineering ?v::ff feels that although the maintenance cost of the fully •nndsoaped median alternative would be higher, the long term benefit of the City would be better served if Alternate A is chosen. When fully built out, the City will have approxi- mately 35 miles of radian area on ten separate arterial roadways. On any given day, there will r-e over 400,000 people traveling along one or a portion of these routes. Many of these travelers will judge what kind of community Carlsbad is by this contact alone. The s:eeis~'on of which median alternative to choose is, therefore., not an inconsequential one. il will have a direct effect on the health, wall being and economic vitality of the coni";uni t\ as a who'le.

Carlsbad's standards require raised med'se^ns only on Major and Prime Arterials. The more important functions of raised medians ore as follows: 1.' Medians provide an insulating area between opposing streams of moving traffic. - - 2. Medians provide protection and control of cross and turning traffic. 3- In some cases, medians provide, a refuge for pedestrians (this might be most appropriate along a beach area where there is considerable pedestrian activity). Setting the aesthetic value, of medians aside, this report wi 11 address strictly: A) the safety, and &} capacity merits of raised medians. A. Using local examples, it can be seen that raised medians have had a very serious impact in minimizing or reduoinr accidents. Elm Avenue, between Interstate 5 and Harding Street has' had nine accidents during the past year, while El Camino Real between State Freeway "/8 and Marron Road has had only five. Yet, the traffic volumes on this section of El Camino Real are almost 30,000 vehicles per day compared to Elm Avenue's 16,000 vehicles per day. Therefore, the accident rate for the street without a' raised median is nearly four times higher than the street with the median. Another example is: The raised median that was constructed in front of •Denny's Restaurant on Pa'ioniar Airport Road between Interstate 5 and Paseo del liorte has virtually eliminated the accidents at that point (none reported since the tried ion was installed); and, there ha.s been no increase in the number of accidents per year at the adjacent intersection oi Palomar Airport Road and Poseo del Norte. Since, however, the traffic volumes have dramatically increased at this intersection, the accident rate has actually decreased (accident rates are a function of both traffic Volumes and the number of accidents). By looking at the City's accident records, one can see that accidents have also been minimized along Other street segments that have, raised median dividers: El Camino Renl between Swallow Lane and Alga Road, Alga Road between Alicont.e Road and El Fuertc Street. Even the raised median on Pasoo del Norte (whose roadway classification is" less than u Major Arterial) has been effective in minimi/ing accidents.- EXHIBIT 3 SAFETY AND CAPACITY MERITS OF RAISED MEDIANS June 15, 1931 ' B. The second major benefit from raised medians is increasing the capacity of a roadway. This is done by greatly reducing the points of conflict (or interruption of continuous flow) to the through traffic on the major roadv;ay. ' This objective is further accomplished by directing the locally generated traffic to collector streets, which thereby can access the major arterials at wel1-spaced signalized intersections. All of this is an 'attempt to get. through traffic to use the' arterial s and-not impact neighborhood streets. Also,"as traffic .steadily increases over the years, it will be very important to get as much capacity out of the Ijniited number of arterials as possible. •Regarding emergency vehicles, the additional time- it would take to go to the nearest, median opening could be more than made up by the improved travel times on the-arter i al s v;i th higher capacity. Also, direct access to local properties is discouraged from major arterials, if proper design is utilized. All of these design concerns are necessary to maximize efficiency and minimize accidents on the City's major arterials.

Carlsbad, CA 92008 RE: CARLSBAD STANDARDS[RAISED MEDIANS ON MAJOR THOROUGHFARES] Dear Les: . • '. • • ' •• ' ' '• ;' A question has come up recently at the City Council relative the installation of raised med5.ans on the pri.me and major arterials within the City of Carlsbad. The concern of some of the Council members and the staff were the increased1 cost for installation of -median improvements and the perpetual maintenance and upkeep.. Because of the ever increasing concern to "hold the line" on expen- diture of public money for capitol improvements and maintenance, I would uscgest that you consider the following. v>? El Camino Real is a scenic corridor and I believe should maintain and develope with' the scenic corridor character. I would think that v.'here existing medians area, that they should be enhanced and maintained with public money. Where possible, those existing medians should be planted with drought resistance and low main- tenance type planting. In addition to the planting, .in areas that 'are hard to maintain, you may want to consider seme kind of hard surface that there is virtually no maintenance on. In areas along El Camir.o Real that are yet to be developed. I vroulcl -suggest that raised medians- only be used at intersections for traffic control, and that all other areas contain painted medians. I think the planting in the new medians where acceptable should be kept to a minimum and again, some kind of hard surfacre be used in the narrower ends of the left turn pocket amd raised raedian areas. I would suggest that all the remaining streets within the City of Carlsbad that would fall in the prime arterial and major arterial categories[126 foot right of way, and 102 foot right of way] should be constructed between, curbs and the medians should be painted accord- ing to current traffic engineering standards. I would think the Eva October 30, 1980 5? age Two City Engineer should retain the option,.or the ability,to require a developer to put in medians to discourage left turns across the painted medians into driveway areas or areas that are restricted to left turns. This probably would only occur where existing de- velopment is and not in newly developed areas. You may also want: to consider putting in raised medians only at intersections as sug- gested along the new sections of El Camino Real. • ' _ There are some definite advantages, I feel, for eliminating the .raised medians other than the obvious cost savings. Quite often,. if a raised median is installed along a curved road that does have .super elevation, you do have the problem of drainage accumu- lating along the curb line adjacent to the high speed lane. At 'the.end of the curve, if the water is not picked up in a storm drain, it will cross back again over the travel lanes and can cause -a serious traffic problem. In either case, the installation of --a storm drain is probably necessary and does again add to additional "cost of street improvements, • -'1 'think a very important factor to consider is that if you'-have anv —^L i. _i *t. };ind of major accidents,.or events that would block traffic up, £,nd also have the raised medians, there is no accessible area„ within the travel lanes for emergency vehicles. With thp painted, medians, the fire trucks and emergency vehicles can easily travel. :Lf traffic is stopped in both directions. The painted median also provides an emergency area for stalled vehicles if the traffic is heavy and the car .in trouble cannot get over to the right hand side cf the road. . . . There are going to be areas within the City where developers may YH'.rit a'raised median opposite his project and vrhere he would be -rilling to plant attractive planting, provide irrigation systems^ c-.r.d provide money for the maintenance of those areas- I would think that a standard could be written to allow theic subject to the City Engineers approval, I would ask that you consider my recommendations for requiring ruedains in only certain areas within the City and to delete the requirement for. medians on the remaining major and prime artorials- 1 vrou'ld be happy to discuss this with you at your convenience.

City of Carlsbad 1200 Elm Avenue Carlsbad, CA 92008 RE: CARLSBAD STANDARDS FOR RAISED MEDIANS ON MAJOR THOROUGH- FARES • - " Dear Mayor Packard: •-..'• - - ' . Recently the City of Ccirlsbad has adopted the standcrrd for raided medians for the major thoroughfares within the C.ity.. These stand- ards consist basically of two raised curbs, a 20 foot' landscape section and a 50 foot stamped concrete section.. This section was, .. he alternate "B" as recommended by the staff tiiio. the Pcirkr> an;'. Kecreation Coraiaission.. I appeared at the Pcirks arid Recreation icieetincj tind also addr"es">e:: L\ letter, to the City Engineer f I-ir ,. lies Evans,- suqqestiug that ' Carlsbad adopt a stfindard e.liminatirig raised raediari;^ cind only using them in areas necessary for traffic control. Originally the Council was concerned aboTit the cost for the instal- lation and maintenance of ra.isecl 'medians and d:Lrected the Planri-irr.; Commission and staff to provide? then with a recorarp.end.atidn,. ' How-- ever, at the Parks and Recreation Corrunission. ir.eeting, it was ob--- vious that the Commission was concerned mainly w.ith aes tl'ietic;; arri appearances Find not as concerned v/ith cost as X had- thought,. At the Ci'uv Council meeting discuss 5. or; also centered priiitari Iy orr. aesthetics ar.-d the raaintenemce cost were,- in r:-\r ooi-nion, a secon- dary concern. l-.'o one will argue v;ith the Council that beautifully landsr.-ii.ped medians are not aesthetically pleasing o.nd jnoro <:i".tr-::c-- tive then a fully paved street with the painted medians. Your Cit F'nyineer has indicated that from a traffic stap.6hooi.nt,- lie feels. thex'e is nc benefit from a raised median versus a pa.in.ted. median. 'I do feel that from a maintenance st^indpoint r trie p£U~nted medians; are obvious Iv less of a burden and exoense on chr> City ruid thc:vj >- ~~~ ' j -• also do provide an area for emergency or stalled vehicles to get" out of the flow of traffic in. the travel lanes. EXHIBIT 2 Haycr Ron Packard s' December 29, 1900 Paqo Two I do have one further .suggestion for you to consider, however/. first of all I would like to point out that .if you feel I am. beet ting a dead horse here, please ignore this letter completely. -I did a quick estimate on the cost of improving i\ raised median as defined in alternate 1!B" versus a fully paved median with . .. striping. The alternate "3" median improvements averages, over ci 70 foot section to be $49 per running foot. The paved median,, with pavement over a select, base runs about $15 per foot. As you can see, there is a $34 difference per running foot for the initial installation cost. " I understand that this would, be paid' for by the developer and not the City,, but if you. multiply the $34 per foot times the 31 miles of raediaas that your staff has indicated needs to be constructed, you are talking a cost of approximately five and a half million dollars. As we all know, this cost is passed on to the people that come to our Co.ty to • work- and to live. The significant savings is in the perpetual maintenance that is required. I do believe that your staff he?,s underestimated the maintenance cost of the medians reflected by the alternate "B". To still provide pleasing street scenes along our major thorough- fares , J. have the following suggestion. Why not, on all the major arterials, require the adjacent development" to put in an addition- al 10 .feet of landscaping. This 10 feet could be added to the. landscaping required "within the right of wayr and not interfere with any building setback areas. Your standards could be upgraded from the regular standards, irrigation systems could be installed and the maintenance would become a part of the adjacent, develop- ments requirements. This way,' the City would have the aesthetic corridors and not be burdened with the extreme cost for maintenance It. would also provide benefits for the adjacent development,, in that it would provide screening fro~i the major streets, and. en- hance the fronts of the adjacent development- This system would be used in lieu of providing the raised medians as is currently the City standard. Again, I would like you to reconsider your previous aporovals of the median improvements. Where medians are required for traffic control, such as at intersections and areas where cross treiffic is a problem., tha stcindard for ailternate "B" can be used. You may also want to include special landscape medians at scenic areas or entrances to the City. EXHIBIT 2 Ron Vac'ruird De-comber 2V t 1980 Page Three Thank yoxi for your consideration in this matter- If you v?oivLd like, I -would bs happy to discuss this vrith you or your staff- Sincerelye Robert C.

Aitamira //% Horneov/ners Ass'n is a non-profit California Corp- oration chartered "not to contemplate pecuniary gain or profit to the members thereof." Its primary purpose is to provide for maintenance, preservation and architectural control of the residence lots and comm area AND to acquire, own, manage, maintain, preserve and operate a community, social, recreational and health center for the health, safety, pleasure, welfare and recreation of its members. The Associatio: is empov/ered to acquire (by gift, purchase or otherwise) ov/n, hold, improve, build upon, operate, maintain, convey, sell, lease, transfer, dedicate for public use or otherwise dispose of real or personal property in connection v/ith the affairs of the Association. • • Aitamira per se is cornp rised of three individual sections total- ing 680 homes. \Ve are an adult only community about 60;t> retired. Roughly estimated we pay nearly a quarter of a mill?Lon dollars in a.ctug.1 school taxes yearly. The city street sweeper stops and turns around at Aitamira. V/e maintain and pay for our own street repairs. According to our Management Company we are perhaps the leading Homeov/ners Ass'n in the area. Basically this is because v/e "Do it ourselves" and do it right. Allow me to digress and cite you a few examples. 1. After we moved into our hones v/e soon discovered the storm and sprinkler water from the upper levels -drained down and across the streets of the lower levels. This presented severe pavement erosion problems. Parking regulations required us to step out of our cars on the slope side of the street into the mud - no sidewalk. Today v/e have beautiful white slump-stone walls, sidewalks and no drainage problems - thanks to Aitamira BDo it yourselfers," 2. V/hen the rough tile floor in our clubhouse was deemed objectionable we chisled it out and replaced it v/ith carpeting funded by our ladies bazaar. 3. V/hen we needed additional storage v/e built a new storage building - even tiled the roof. " 2 — V;e are a grouo of public minded (mainly senior citizens) who have demonstrated our ability to work and accomplish in the pursuit of healtli and happiness. We would contribute our energies and. funds to adopt this Open ~ Space Area in coordination with the city's neighborhood and nature trail plan. The adoption of the Open Space Area would conform v/ith the city's new park concept and would, be used to provide a benefit for all the citizens of Carls bad. A conceptual agreement covering the needs and. requirements of the city and. the Association on items such as insurance., access, license period, taxes, etc, is suggested, It is the intention of the Association to.use the adopted Open Space Area as follows: 1. Public Gardens 2. R/V lot expansion 3. Plant trees and bushes If. Golf facility The- exhibit outlines the planned, use. Maintenance and development will be financed by a $2.00 per month increase in A.sso elation dues already approved 'and imposition ox modest fees as deemed necessary. The submitted "as is" pictures clearly illustrate that untended Tj.blic property tends to become an eyesore, dumping ground and. fire V.'e believe that the adoption of an 'open space area by a group of public minded citizens willing to tax themselves is a landmark case and clearly should rate a feather in the caps of both the City and the Association. V/e hereby request the Commission approve the adoption plan which would enable the Association to convert this open space into an area having beauty as well as utility.
