10 City Council Minutes March 28, 2017 Vol. 49 Pg. 25 On March 6, 2017, a community meeting was held. A total of 23 residents attended the meeting and expressed the following concerns: 1. Light spreading into neighborhood 2. Traffic on Stanton Avenue 3. Overnight parking 4. Noise and commotion 5. Gap between the new wall and existing walls 6. Trash 7. Desire for 12 ft. wall instead of 10 ft. 8. Surveillance cameras 9. The parking lot should close at 10: 00 p.m. and not 2 a. m. 10. Police should regularly patrol the parking lot. Staff has evaluated the neighborhood' s concerns and has determined the lights in the parking lot will be LEDs that are directional and should not spread into the neighborhood. The parking lot design, maintenance, and operation will be similar to the completed lot at Western Avenue, and the City has received no complaints from the residents. Security cameras could be installed if problems surface. Iteris, the City's traffic consultant, performed a traffic study and determined that the lot will not affect the level of service on Stanton Avenue. The wall gap is unavoidable because removing the existing privately -owned walls and installing one new wall would require negotiation with each individual property owner, would significantly increase the cost and project timeline, and would require consent from 100% of the property owners. The gap could be mitigated by installing a Geofoam filler between the walls, and this would mitigate potential trash, weeds and vermin. Lynda Luistro, an adjacent resident, expressed concerns about property value and disruption of peace. She requested a 15 -foot wall, additional trees, removal of the chain link fence at the dead end street, and reduced parking hours. She commented that private businesses should provide their own employee parking lots. Evelyn Webb, an adjacent resident, expressed concern about rodents in the gap between the new wall and existing walls. She stated that Porto's should build their own employee parking. Baron Night, a Buena Park resident, commented that most of the private residents' walls are built on Southern California Edison property, and easements were issued by Edison to the private residents. Following discussion, the City Council directed staff to proceed as outlined in the written staff report with the parking lot operational hours to be considered by the City Council at a future date. The City Council directed that the chain link fence at the dead end be removed and the landscape improved. Additionally, the City Council favored resolving the gap issue by using a filler, such as Geofoam, between the walls and directed that this component be included in the project specifications if it is feasible to do so. 22. DISCUSSION AND DIRECTION REGARDING CHANGING STREET LIGHTS TO LIGHT EMITTED DIODE ( LED) LIGHTING Present for the discussion was David Jacobs, Director of Public Works. Mr. Jacobs reported that the City has two options to convert existing high - pressure sodium vapor (HSPV) streetlights to new energy- efficient LED streetlights. Option 1: Wait until Southern California Edison ( SCE) converts to LED. The timeline is undefined, but is estimated to be five years. Option 2: Proactively convert to LED streetlights under SCE' s LS -1 Option E plan. There is no upfront cost and the City repays SCE for its capital improvement through energy savings over a 20 year period. Under this option, the City will still realize an approximate savings of $29,000 per month in energy bills. Following discussion, the City Council directed staff to proceed with Option 2 and bring a fixture replacement rate agreement forward for formal approval.
