Due to the curvature of Lincoln Street and immediately to the northwest of this crossing, the sight distance on Lincoln Street justifies advanced warning to enhance driver awareness of pedestrians. Previous attempts to mitigate this situation have included an enhanced 'ladder" style crosswalk as well as additional signage warning motorists of the potential of pedestrian crossings. Although these improvements have been in place for years, continuing concerns have been voiced by citizens, the Lake Elsinore Police Department, and by the Public Safety Commission. Discussion A review of various pedestrian safety approaches was conducted by staff. It was determined that a method using "Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon" (RRFB) devices would be the most effective at this location. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has recently granted interim approval for the use of RRFBs to supplement uncontrolled pedestrian crosswalk signs. The RRFB is a rectangular shaped signal head which flashes a high intensity yellow light in a wig -wag, rapid flickering pattern. The beacons will be pedestrian push button activated so that they will only function when the crosswalk is in use. They are solar powered so no additional energy costs will Agenda Item No. 3 Rapid Flashing Beacon Update January 9, 2013 Page 2 be incurred. These devices have been proven effective in alerting drivers to pedestrians and bicyclists in crosswalks around the country. On November 20, 2012, the City received 3 informal bids from qualified contractors to furnish and install the RRFB system on the northwest section of Lincoln Street at Terra Cotta Road. The bids are as follows: 1. DDL Traffic, Inc., Chino Hills $15,882.75 2. New West Signal, Inc., Fontana $18,200.00 3. Macadee Electrical Construction, Chino $19,169.00 Staff presented the bid results to the City Council on January 8, 2013. Recommendation It is recommended that the Public Safety Advisory Commission receive and file this item.

Also, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) contacted the City with their concerns related to the facility. The City immediately brought together all applicable local agencies that included, Animals Friends of the Valley, the Lake Elsinore Police Department, the Lake Elsinore Fire Department, representatives of the County of Riverside (i.e. County Hazmat, County Public Health, County Animal Control),and others to ensure that the health & safety of the public and animals were taken into consideration. Upon final inspections, animal control agencies confirmed that approximately 600 reptiles and 18,400 rodents were present within the facility located at 530 3`d St.. After careful analysis of the identified animals, a team of veterinarians, reptile specialists, and animal cruelty investigations experts determined that due to the extreme neglect, cruelty and dangerously unhealthy long -term conditions, contaminated environment and the potential for further suffering, euthanasia was the safest and most humane option for the animals and the community at large. Subsequently, all reptiles and rodents were humanely euthanized under the supervision of onsite veterinarians and associated experts. Furthermore and due to the amount of animals identified, the City activated the Emergency Operations Center (EOC), which is Agenda Item No. cj Global Captive Breeders January 9, 2013 Page 2 responsible for directing ad coordinating the various City of Lake Elsinore Departments and other outside agencies in their response to the animal neglect/cruelty crisis at Global Captive Breeders. At this time the incident has been turned over to the Lake Elsinore Police Department for a criminal investigation. Recommendation It is recommended that the Public Safety Advisory Commission receive and file this item.
