(1180-10 COMPLAINT) (1404-08 TRAILS) Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public input. Addressing Council were: Mary Beth Hagenan, resident of Marble Avenue, presented the City Council with petitions containing 90 signatures requesting the removal of the fence along Sapphire. She read the following letter into the minutes by Lessie Auletti, past vice president of the Alta Lema Riding Club: "October 19, 1988 Dennis L. Stout, Mayor, City of Rancho Cucamonga City Council, City of Rancho Cucamonga Subject: Bridle Path Construction on Sapphire Street Dear Mr. Mayor and Honorable Councilmembers: On 12 October 1988, Mary Beth Hagenan, a personal friend, called me as a resident and a long-time area equestrian to observe the subject bridle path under construction and to give her my opinion as to its placement and impact upon the safety of both auto access to Marble Avenue and horses using the facilities. I had not been previously aware of this project as I seldom use Sapphire Street. Subsequently, I drove to the area on that date and returned today. On both trips I observed that at least two major problems regarding safety do seem obvious. 1. Autos attempting to access Sapphire Street from either Marble or the street due north of Marble cannot see traffic which is approaching from the north. Even though the traffic stop line has been repositioned, it was necessary for me to pull my auto two feet onto Sapphire to see any cars travelling south on that street. The white posts were too tall for me to see over the top of the hill. Although traffic was light at 10:00 a.m. this day, it took me seven minutes to make a safe left turn onto Sapphire from Marble and five minutes to make a safe cross to Lemon. 2. The bridle path itself is only nine feet wide. Other members will say it is smaller than that. This is not sufficient room for horses to pass safety under all conditions. After measuring the width, I performed an experiment at my home with an everage size fifteen hand quarter horse and western equipment (i.e., a standard western saddle and bridle) with my 5'4" adult daughter riding the animal. A standard four foot pipe corral gate barely permitted passage of horse and rider. Extrapolating to a nine foot pathway with a high cement wall, which is currently what's going north-south on Sapphire, on one side, and a post and rail on the other, it will allow barely eight inches between wall, fence, and horse if two pace at a walk. Assuming all riders are small and all horses are under control, this is not adequate. Unfortunately, people and horses are not always under control. (58) City Council Minutes Oc:ober 19, 1988 Psge 20 (59) I then asked a friend, also a long-time resident and horse owner, Sue Earhart, to look at the area and give me her opinion. She was also shocked at the safety issues for both autos and riders. She was unable to make a left-hand turn for several minutes off Marble at approximately 11|30 a.m. today, and had to place her car one to two feet onto Sapphire to see southbound. Since traffic cones were in place today due to the work, we are both concerned that southbound traffic would be harder to see if the cones were not there. It seems to both Mrs. Earhart and myself that the bridle path itself serves no purpose as that particular area is rarely used by riders in the couununity. We both toured the tract involved and saw no evidence of equestrian use at this time. We both agree that lowering the white posts at least one foot would probably help visibility somewhat, but that if the path remains as is, some additional traffic control is definitely needed. Possibly a four-way stop at the Lemon/Marble/Sapphire intersection will allow the tract to enter traffic flow in a safe and expedient manner; however, the narrowness of that section of the bridle path makes safety for horses and riders an issue that should be addressed as well. Both Mrs. Earhart and myself are past officers of the Alta Loma Riding Club and have been involved with horseshow management and safety issues. We are most concerned that both residents and the equestrian community remain on good terms with one another and that safety for all residents is a primary issue here. I have asked Mrs. Hagenan to deliver and/or to read this letter to you as my health prevented me from attending this meeting in person. Please feel free to call me at home at any time regarding this issue. Sincerely, Lessie Auletti" David Lakeman, resident of Marble Avenue, presented pictures taken by Linda Valenti. There being no further response, Mayor Stout closed the public hearing. Mayor Stout stated he felt this should be referred to the Planning Commission and to the Public Safety Commission.
