  B.  City Manager
      (1) AMENDMENTS TO THE CITY'S POLICIES AND PROCEDURES FOR 
           INSTALLATION OF SPEED HUMPS
           Recommendation of City Manager: It is recommended that the City
           Council approve the amendments to the City's Policies and Procedures
           for Installation of Speed Humps as shown on Attachment 1 of the
           agenda report.  The amendments revise or create new policies and
           procedures for factors such as traffic volumes, speeds, street grades,
           and horizontal and vertical alignment of the streets.
           Recommendation of Transportation Advisory Commission:  The
           Transportation Advisory Commission (TAC) held meetings on July 10
           and December 5, 2003, and on March 12, May 7, and June 3, 2004, to
           review the proposed amendments to the Speed Hump Policies and
           Procedures.  After considerable deliberation at several meetings, TAC
           unanimously supported staff's recommendations, with the following
           proposed changes:
               (a) That the lower traffic volume threshold in the policy be
           changed from the recommended 1,000 vehicles per day to 500 vehicles
           per day.
               (b) That the upper traffic volume threshold in the policy be
           changed from the recommended 3,000 vehicles per day to 4,000
           vehicles per day.
               (c) That residential alleys meeting other criteria be considered for
           speed humps.
               (d) That engineering judgment be used in the process.
               (e) That the policy reflect the notion that it is not the intent of the
           proposed revisions to exclude the de-emphasized streets from speed
           hump considerations.
               (f) That the appeal process in the policy be revised so that before
           the representative(s) of a street not eligible for speed humps appeal the
           matter to the City Council, TAC can review and make recommendations
           on the matter.
               All TAC's recommendations are incorporated in staff's
           recommendation with the exception of (a) (the revision to the lower
           traffic volume threshold) for the reasons explained in the body of the
           agenda report.

           signing and pavement striping as incentives to ride bicycles on the
