TO: Andrew P. Powers, City Manager
FROM: Clifford G. Finley, Public Works Director
DATE: June 14, 2022
SUBJECT: Updated Speed Hump Installation Policy
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt resolution establishing updated “Speed Hump Installation Policy” recommended by the Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission on April 20, 2022.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
No Additional Funding Requested. Minimal staff time and costs required to prepare resolution, which is included in the Adopted FY 2021-22 General Fund Budget. Requests for installation of speed humps are funded by the General Fund.
Current installation costs for a typical set of ten-speed humps is approximately $50,000.
BACKGROUND:
During a speed hump installation request hearing on October 21, 2021, the Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission (TTAC) requested staff review and update the City’s existing Speed Hump Installation Policy (Policy), which has been in effect since May 19, 2009 (Attachment #1). On January 19, 2022, staff brought recommended edits to the Policy for TTAC review and received input and feedback. Based on that input, a proposed replacement 2022 Speed Hump Installation Policy was developed and reviewed by TTAC on April 20, 2022.
The April 20, 2022 TTAC staff report provides background on why TTAC deemed it important to update the City’s Policy to be more consistent with current engineering standards and practices (Attachment #2). That staff report includes a red-line markup of the existing policy showing the proposed changes. The TTAC voted 3-0 at the April 20, 2022 meeting to recommend City Council approve the new updated Policy with various language edits and enhancements (Attachment #3).
Item No.7M
Updated Speed Hump Installation Policy
June 14, 2022
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The proposed Policy contains minor edits and incorporates “best practices” to engineering terminology and improves the wording of certain sections for greater clarity. Key eligibility criteria, such as the minimum 75 percent petition requirement to demonstrate neighborhood support, and the minimum daily traffic volume requirement of 2,000 vehicles per day (VPD) remain unchanged. The summary and description of the key changes to the resolution are as follows:
SECTION A – Eligibility Criteria Policy for Speed Humps Order of eligibility criteria adjusted to list parameters that residents could determine without field investigation being listed first, followed by those criteria that require field studies and engineering analysis (traffic volume, speed, etc.).
The original list of ten possible reasons to reduce the required traffic volume criteria from 2,000 VPD to 1,500 VPD was reduced to nine possible reasons. In addition, language within the nine criteria that had subjective interpretation (e.g., hidden driveways or narrow street) adjusted to include measurable criteria based on information contained in the City’s Road Design and Construction Standards.
Outdated “Speed Lump” terminology replaced with “Speed Cushions”. To discourage repeat petition requests each year, new criteria is added which requires a minimum of four years (48 months), before another speed hump request can be considered for a subject street. This is consistent with the term of each Commissioner/Councilmember and neighborhood road conditions are not expected to experience significant change within four years. The four-year period is also less than the minimum period the State requires radar speed surveys be updated to maintain or change a speed limit.
Language updated to clarify that the policy applies to speed hump requests originating from property owners at the neighborhood level.
SECTION B – Rules and Regulations Policy for Speed Humps Outdated “Speed Lump” terminology replaced with “Speed Cushions.” Prerequisite for a local Education Program to be implemented eliminated (Neighborhood Speed Awareness Program).
Item No.7M
Updated Speed Hump Installation Policy
June 14, 2022
Language clarified that all criteria in Section A need to be met in order for staff to recommend the installation of speed humps for the subject street.
SECTION C – Procedure Policy for Processing Speed Hump Requests Language adjusted to only require the petition signature rate of 75 percent to have the matter reviewed by TTAC, rather than all eligibility criteria having to be met in order to qualify for review by the TTAC.
Appeal process clarified so that any resident within the petition zone is eligible to submit an appeal, and that the appeal fee must be submitted with the appeal before the item is scheduled for a City Council Agenda within 90 days.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE:
Meets the following City Council goals:
D. Maintain strong commitment to public safety (including Police, Fire, Emergency Medical Services, and Emergency Management) to ensure City remains one of the safest Cities in the United States with a population over 100,000.
F. Provide and enhance essential infrastructure to ensure that the goals and policies of the Thousand Oaks General Plan are carried out and the City retains its role and reputation as a leader in protecting the environment and preserving limited natural resources.

Item No.7M
TO: Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission
FROM: Jim Mashiko, Senior Engineer
DATE: April 20, 2022
SUBJECT: Updates to City of Thousand Oaks Speed Hump Policy (Resolution No. 2009-045) - ACTION ITEM (Continued from January 19, 2022 meeting)
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Receive report and provide comments for the proposed draft City of Thousand Oaks Speed Hump Policy.
2. Recommend that the City Council approve the draft City of Thousand Oaks Speed Hump Policy.
BACKGROUND:
During a speed hump request hearing on October 21, 2021, the Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission (TTAC) recommended staff to review and update the City of Thousand Oaks Speed Hump Policy (Policy) which has been in effect since May 19, 2009 (Resolution No. 2009-045, Attachment #1). On January 19, 2022, TTAC reviewed draft staff recommended edits and provided input to modify/update the Policy. Based on that input and others received to date, a proposed replacement 2022 Policy (Attachment #2) has been developed and is included in this report. Attachment #3 is the January 19, 2022, staff report which provides background as to how and why TTAC felt it is important to update the City Speed Hump Policy at this time to be more consistent with current engineering standards and practices.
DISCUSSION:
All notations shown on Attachment #1 were either mentioned during the October 2021 and January 2022 TTAC meetings or suggested by staff to be incorporated in the draft resolution (Attachment #2). Commissioner comments during these TTAC meetings indicated that the recommended changes are not believed to be significant and focused on a “best practice” update to engineering terminology and improving the wording of certain sections for greater clarity.
ATTACHMENT#2
Item No.7M
Updates to Speed Hump Policy (continued from January 19, 2022) April 20, 2022
The summary and description of key changes to the resolution are as follows:
SECTION A – ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA POLICY FOR SPEED HUMPS Language clarified to remove requests that are initiated by City Council.
Order of eligibility criteria adjusted to list parameters that residents could determine without field investigation being listed first followed by those criteria that require field studies and engineering analysis (traffic volume, speed, etc.).
Ten possible reasons to reduce traffic volume criteria from 2,000 vehicle requirement to 1,500 was reduced to nine possible reasons. Language within the nine criteria with subjective interpretation (e.g., hidden driveways or narrow street) adjusted to include measurable criteria (based on information contained in the City’s Road Design and Construction Standards). The 500- vehicle reduction was originally implemented in 2009 to be more sensitive to streets with unique characteristics that differ from the adopted standards described in the City’s Road Design and Construction Standards.
Traffic Volume threshold of 2,000 vehicles per day is based on the residential capacity of a residential street. Traffic volumes exceeding this number could be an indicator that the street is experiencing short cut traffic diversion from the adjacent arterial street system.
Traffic Speed criteria of 75 percent traveling faster than 25 mph is based on historical traffic surveys indicating that most residential streets experience up to 75 percent of vehicle more than 25 mph. Streets experiencing a higher than 75 percent of vehicles traveling above 25 mph would be considered higher than normal.
Outdated “Speed Lump” terminology eliminated and replaced with “Speed Cushions”.
New criteria added which requires a minimum four years (48 month) period has elapsed since the previous speed hump study for subject street. Four years is consistent with term of each Traffic Commissioner/City Councilmember. Four years is considered a conservative period considering Thousand Oaks’ residential neighborhoods are essentially “built out” and there are no new significant sources of neighborhood trip generation expected to impact neighborhood streets. Also, the four-year period is less than the minimum period the State requires radar speed surveys used to set speed limits to be updated.
Item No.7M
Updates to Speed Hump Policy (continued from January 19, 2022) April 20, 2022
SECTION B — RULES AND REGULATIONS POLICY FOR SPEED HUMPS Outdated “Speed Lump” terminology eliminated and replaced with “Speed Cushions”.
Prerequisite Education Program section eliminated (Neighborhood Speed Awareness Program).
Language clarified that all criteria in Section A shall be met in order for staff to recommend the installation of speed humps for the subject street.
SECTION C - PROCEDURE POLICY FOR PROCESSING SPEED HUMP
REQUESTS
Language adjusted to only require the petition signature rate of 75 percent needed to have matter reviewed by TTAC rather than all eligibility criteria having to be met in order to qualify for review by the TTAC.
Appeal process clarified which requires any resident within petition zone eligible to submit appeal and appeal fee must be submitted with appeal before item is scheduled for a City Council Agenda within 90 days of the appeal.
Next Steps:
Based on input received by the TTAC at the April 2022 meeting, staff will present the draft City of Thousand Oaks Speed Hump Policy to City Council for consideration in late Spring of 2022.

RESOLUTION NO. 2022
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF THOUSAND OAKS ESTABLISHING
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA, RULES AND
REGULATIONS, AND PROCEDURES FOR
PROCESSING SPEED HUMP INSTALLATION
REQUESTS
WHEREAS, the Thousand Oaks City Council adopted Speed Hump Requirements, Policies and Procedures on June 21, 1983, regarding the installation of speed humps; and
WHEREAS, the intent of the City Council Policy in 1983 was to guard against the proliferation of speed humps Citywide which would burden emergency vehicle response times and create a significant inconvenience to the motoring public; and WHEREAS, since adoption of the City Council Speed Hump Policy in 1983, “significant speeding problems" were identified on 23 residential streets; and WHEREAS, from 1983 to 2009, City Councils took action to calm traffic and approved the installation of Speed Humps on the 23 “significant speeding problem" streets; and
WHEREAS, in February 1993, the City Council adopted an Amendment to the Circulation Element of the General Plan which added a goal that reads: "To move commuter traffic through the City on arterial streets in order to protect collector and neighborhood streets from the impacts of commuter traffic”; and WHEREAS, in 1995 and 1996, the City Traffic and Transportation Commission reviewed the original 1983 City Council adopted Speed Hump Policies and confirmed the policies are current to meet the needs of the motoring public and the goals of the City Council; and
WHEREAS, the installation of Speed Humps has demonstrated to be an effective traffic calming measure to reduce the negative effects of motor vehicle use, alter poor driver behavior, and improve community conditions for all motorists and non-motorized street users; and
WHEREAS, Speed Humps are traffic calming measures and are defined as a “road design feature of the roadway"; and
WHEREAS, the City Council, by Resolution, may restrict traffic flow on streets in order to reduce residential speeding utilizing Speed Humps for the purpose of implementing the goals and objectives of the Circulation Element of the General Plan; and
ATTACHMENT#2 TO
THE 4/20/2022 TTAC
STAFF REPORT
Item No.7M
WHEREAS, each request for Speed Humps is first reviewed by the City Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission at a community noticed meeting, taking into consideration the engineer’s report and findings and all relevant issues and matters including public input and testimony regarding the appropriateness of the proposed Speed Humps, and making a recommendation to the City Council; and

hereby adopted:
SECTION A - ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA POLICY FOR SPEED HUMPS (Requests initiated by the Public)
1. Petition: Upon filing with the City a written Speed Hump Petition of Affirmation request signed by 75 percent or more of the affected property owners fronting along the street (limit one signature per property), the City Council may consider a designated street for placement of Speed Humps.
2. Road Width: The road must not be wider than 40 feet.
3. Travel Lanes: The maximum number of travel lanes shall be two. Roadways with two travel lanes and a 2-way left turn lane shall not be considered.
Item No.7M
4. Residential Street: The road must meet California Vehicle Code definition of a residential street and have a speed limit of 25 mph. The residential street shall not be a cul-de-sac and shall be a minimum of a quarter mile (1,320 feet) in length.
5. Traffic Volume: Average weekday traffic volume must exceed 2,000 vehicles per day (vpd). This criteria may be reduced to 1,500 vpd if two or more of the following road conditions exist as determined by the City Engineer:
a. A school (grades K-12) is located along or adjacent to the street. b. There are no street lights.
c. There are no sidewalks.
d. The street experiences periods of high pedestrian or bicycle activity. e. Sight distance issues exist at cross street intersections that cannot be resolved by other engineering measures.
f. Short cutting from adjacent arterial streets exceeds 35 percent of total vehicle volume during two or more peak hour periods.
g. A park is located along the street.
h. The street width is less than 36’ curb to curb.
i. The street has a curve radius of less than 300 feet at two or more points along the street.
6. Traffic Speed: More than 75 percent of vehicles exceed a speed of 25 mph.
7. Control of Approach Speed: The approach speed at the location of the first speed hump must be able to be effectively controlled via a physical design feature as determined by the City Engineer. The physical design of the road shall reasonably allow vehicles speeds to be effectively and safely controlled to the approach of the Speed Hump system. In most cases, and based on an engineering evaluation, speed humps shall not be installed on a street where the horizontal grade at any point exceeds a longitudinal slope of eight (8) percent.
8. Emergency Vehicle Response: Requested Speed Hump system shall not significantly increase emergency vehicle response time. Local Fire, Police, and Ambulance providers shall be requested to provide technical input during the engineering evaluation phase to determine if there may be a significant increase in emergency response time. The City Engineer shall have the discretion to implement speed cushions in lieu of speed humps where emergency response time may be impacted and impacts can be mitigated with speed cushions.
9. Diverted Traffic: Speed Humps shall not be installed on streets where the City Engineer determines that the installation shall create a significant level of diverted traffic to nearby street(s). A significant level is usually considered to be an increase of traffic volume of 35% or higher and/or an increase of traffic to a street fronted by a school or park during either the AM or PM peak hour periods.
Item No.7M
10. The subject street has not been considered for speed humps in the previous four years (48 months).
SECTION B — RULES AND REGULATIONS POLICY FOR SPEED HUMPS
1. Design: Speed Humps or Speed Cushions shall be installed in conformance with design guidelines that have been established by the City, Speed Humps or Speed Cushions may be modified, altered, or removed by the City at any time as the City determines to be appropriate. Note: Speed Hump and Speed Cushion design standards are located in the Thousand Oaks Road Design and Construction Standards.
2. Petition Review: All requests for Speed Humps shall originate from the property owners “along the affected streets" in the form of a formal written petition (Petition of Affirmation) and be circulated by the property owners themselves. Petition forms are available in the Public Works Department. The City shall conduct an engineering review and technical evaluation process and prepare a report. City employees shall not collect petition signatures.
The petition area shall be determined by the City and may or may not include other neighborhood streets that may be affected by the requested Speed Humps. The purpose of the petition is to show general and strong neighborhood support for Speed Humps. Each property owner’s signature shall be verified. One signature per property shall be allowed. The City Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission or City Council or both shall conduct a public meeting. Public Works Department staff shall notify the anticipated area of Speed Hump impact which is generally larger than the “petition area” since neighbors not living on the street with the Speed Humps may still be affected because of the potential for diverted traffic routes.
3. Traffic Engineering Investigation: After compliance and completion of the above items, the Traffic Engineering Division shall begin the traffic review process. The review includes verification of petition signatures, conducting traffic surveys to obtain traffic data, and comparison of road conditions with the Eligibility Criteria. A request shall meet all items in Section A — Eligibility Criteria Policy for Speed Humps for staff to recommend the installation.
SECTION C - PROCEDURE POLICY FOR PROCESSING SPEED HUMP
REQUESTS
1. Meeting Schedule Process: If the 75 percent petition signature rate is met, a meeting of the Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission or City Council shall be scheduled to review the request after staff has completed the necessary traffic data measuring work, evaluation, and report. If recommended by the Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission, the request shall be presented to the City Council for final approval at the soonest available and reasonable City Council meeting date. The lead petitioner shall be advised of the recommendation and meeting date by staff. Staff shall also establish and distribute notices of the meeting to area residents in the “notification area.”
Item No.7M
2. Appeal Process: If the Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission denies the request, the speed hump review process is terminated unless an appeal to the City Council is filed within 14 calendar days after the date of denial. An appeal may be filed by any resident residing within the petition zone. Every effort shall be made to schedule the appeal for consideration by the City Council within ninety (90) calendar days if an appeal fee, per current user fee policy, has been submitted to the City with the appeal. If the City Council overturns the decision of the Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission, the appeal fee shall be refunded.
3. Decision Process: If approved and as directed by the City Council, the design process begins for the installation of Speed Humps or Speed Cushions on the requested street. The decision of the City Council is final.
Depending on the availability of City funding, the design process shall commence. After completion of Speed Hump design plans, requirements, and bidding procedures, if any, every effort shall be made to install the traffic calming measure within 20 weeks.

Item No.7M
TO: Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission
FROM: Jim Mashiko, Senior Engineer
DATE: January 19, 2022
SUBJECT: Updates to City of Thousand Oaks Speed Hump Policy (Resolution No. 2009-045) - ACTION ITEM
RECOMMENDATION:
Review engineering report, receive public input, and provide recommendations to modify/update the City of Thousand Oaks Speed Hump Policy (Resolution No. 2009-045, Attachment #1).
BACKGROUND:
Speed humps (Attachment #2) and speed cushions (Attachments #3 and #4) are effective pavement features that City Council has adopted for use on residential streets having a 25-mph speed limit to reduce speeding activity and deter cross town short cutting through neighborhoods. Speed humps are three inches high (two inches high on streets where traffic has diverted to neighboring streets) and span 12 feet in length. Speed cushions are modified speed humps with strategically spaced wheel cutouts for larger emergency vehicles to reduce impacts to response time.
There have been 26 streets approved for the installation of speed humps since the program began in 1983. Speeds on these 26 streets are generally 25 mph or less, which is the target operating speed within neighborhoods.
For the sake of background, the roadway criteria that must be satisfied for City staff to recommend the installation of speed humps along a residential street is identified in City Council Resolution 2009-045, which was last updated/established in 2009. From that document, there are nine criteria that must be satisfied to qualify for staff to recommend speed hump be installed.
1. Petition Rate exceeds 75 percent;
2. Daily traffic exceeds 2,000 vehicles per day (VPD);
3. 75 percent of vehicles exceed the 25-mph speed limit;
4. Road width cannot exceed 40 feet (curb to curb);
5. No more than two travel lanes present;
6. The street meets the Vehicle Code definition as a Residential Street; ATTACHMENT #3 TO THE
4/20/2022 TTAC STAFF REPORT
Item No.7M
Updates to Speed Hump Policy
January 19, 2022
7. Ability to control of approach speed at each end of street when approaching first speed hump;
8. Emergency response not significantly impacted; and
9. Traffic diversion to other streets is not believed to result in a traffic volume increase greater than 35% on the impacted street(s).
At the October 20, 2021 Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission meeting, several Commissioner comments were voiced regarding the current speed hump policy related to the petition request for speed humps on Columbia Road. Traffic Commissioners suggested that updates to the policy were needed to match current standards and practices, such as the current term “speed cushions”, whereas the current document refers to an older term, “speed pillows” in Attachment #1.
DISCUSSION:
Staff is requesting feedback from the Traffic Commission, including a review of the existing Speed Hump Policy and suggested modifications if any to the policy language. A few notations are shown on Attachment #1 which were either mentioned during the October meeting or suggested by staff to be in need of attention. Commissioner comments during the October 2021 meeting indicated that the required changes are not believed to be significant, and instead need to be focused on updates to engineering terminology and improving the wording of certain sections for greater clarity.
Based on input received by the Traffic Commission at the January 2022 meeting, staff will return with a draft speed hump policy for the Traffic Commission to review in Spring 2022 before it is presented to City Council for consideration in Summer 2022.

BACKGROUND:
The City of Thousand Oaks Transit (TOT) program receives annual funding from the Federal Transportation Administration (FTA) to support public transit. FTA regulations require agencies that provide public transit to prepare a Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP) and City Council adopted the City’s first PTASP on October 27, 2020. FTA requires that updated plans and resolutions be approved annually and adopted by City Council no later than July 1 of each year. City Council approved the 2021 review and adopted the 2021 resolution on May 12, 2021.
DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:
The City of Thousand Oaks’ PTASP incorporates City and MV Transportation emergency procedures and protocols, and performance targets. Existing performance targets include fatalities, injuries, and safety events. One new target that was not previously required for transit agencies of fewer than 100 vehicles tracks vehicle revenue miles between major mechanical failures. FTA requires three years of data to determine a performance target. Currently, there is insufficient data to determine this performance target; however, the City’s Fleet Item No.7N

This Plan may need to be reviewed and updated more frequently based on the following:
Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
We determine our approach to mitigating safety deficiencies is ineffective; We make significant changes to service delivery;
We introduce new processes or procedures that may impact safety; We change or re-prioritize resources available to support SMS; We significantly change our organizational structure.
Section 3 Safety Performance Targets (SPTs)
3.1 - Target Development
Caltrans includes SPTs in this Safety Plan. These targets are specific numerical targets set by Caltrans and based on the safety Performance Measures established by FTA in the National Public Transportation Safety Plan. In the most recent version, the 2017 NSP3, FTA adopted four initial safety Performance Measures: (1) Fatalities, (2) Injuries, (3) Safety Events, and (4) System Reliability.
Caltrans developed safety performance targets that it will review and update annually.
The specific safety performance targets are based on the safety performance measures established under the National Public Transportation Safety Plan and the safety performance goals set by Caltrans based on the past three (3) Calendar years of data.
The Safety Performance Targets for the City for the year 2020 is expected to stay within 1% +/- of previous three years data pertaining to fatalities, injuries, safety events, and system reliability.
FTA requires Caltrans to coordinate with FTA Region 9 and VCTC to the maximum extent practicable. Pursuant to 49 CFR Part 673.15(a), Caltrans will make safety performance targets available to VCTC to aid in the planning process upon certification of this plan.
Additionally, the City will transmit performance data against the safety performance targets to Caltrans and VCTC on an annual basis.

Section 4 - Overview of the Agency’s Safety Management Systems (SMS) SMS is a comprehensive, collaborative approach that brings management and labor together to build on the transit industry’s existing safety foundation to control risk better, Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
detect and correct safety problems earlier, share and analyze safety data more effectively, and measure safety performance more carefully. The City’s SMS focuses on applying resources to risk and is based on ensuring that the City has the organizational infrastructure to support decision-making at all levels regarding the assignment of resources. Some key parts of the City’s SMS include:
1. Defined roles and responsibilities;
2. Strong executive safety leadership;
3. Formal safety accountabilities and communication;
4. Effective policies and procedures; and
5. Active employee involvement
Furthermore, the City’s SMS have four distinct components, which are discussed in subsequent sections to this Safety Plan:
1. Safety Policy
2. Safety Risk Management
3. Safety Assurance
4. Safety Promotion
Section 5 - Safety Management Policy
The first component of the City’s SMS is the Safety Management Policy, which is the foundation of the City’s safety management system. It clearly states the organization’s safety objectives and sets forth the policies, procedures, and organizational structures necessary to accomplish the safety objectives. The Safety Management Policy clearly defines management and employee responsibilities for safety throughout the organization. It also ensures that management is actively engaged in the oversight of the system’s safety performance by requiring regular review of the Safety Management Policy, budget and program by the designated Accountable Executive.
5.1 - Safety Management Policy Statement
Safety is a core value at the City, and managing safety is a core business function. The City will develop, implement, maintain, and continuously improve processes to ensure the safety of our customers, employees, and the public. The City’s overall safety objective is to proactively manage safety hazards and their associated safety risk, with the intent to eliminate unacceptable safety risk in our transit operations.
The City will:
Clearly, and continuously explain to all City staff that everyone working with the Transit Division must take part and be responsible and accountable for the development and operation of the SMS.
Work continuously to minimize safety risks. Work to comply with and, wherever possible, exceed legislative and regulatory requirements and standards for passengers and employees.
Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
Work to ensure that all employees are provided appropriate safety information and training, are competent in safety matters, and assigned tasks commensurate with duties and skills.
Reaffirm that responsibility for making our operations safer for everyone lies with all employees – from executive management to frontline employees. Each manager is responsible for implementing the SMS in their area of responsibility and will be held accountable to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to perform activities established through the SMS.
Caltrans established safety performance targets to help measure the overall effectiveness of our processes and ensure we meet our safety objectives. The City will keep employees informed about safety performance goals and objectives to ensure continuous safety improvement.
5.2 - Safety Management Policy Communication
The Safety Management Policy is communicated throughout the Agency, to all employees, managers, and executives, as well as contractors, and to the City Council.
This is accomplished through various processes such as:
1. Workshops/training sessions - Conducted for Senior Management, Directors, Managers, Supervisors. Once this Plan or any update to this Plan has been signed by the Public Works Director approved by the City Council and certified by Caltrans it will become standard practice in perpetuity so that SMS become standard business practice. All Union representatives will be kept informed.
2. New Hire Safety Orientation – All new employees regardless of their classifications will be trained about their roles and responsibilities pertaining to PTASP and the principles of SMS.
3. Safety bulletins, email safety newsletter blasts to staff, toolbox/tailgate safety meetings and/or safety committee meetings
5.3 - Employee Safety Reporting Program
The City implemented a process that allows employees and contracted employees to report safety conditions to senior management, and provides protections for employees who make such reports. The purpose, description and protections for employees to report unsafe conditions and hazards are described in the Employee Safety Reporting Program as below:
Purpose: a) To establish a system for the City employees to identify unsafe conditions or hazards at work and report them to their department management without fear of reprisal. However, disciplinary action could result if the condition reported reveals the employee willfully participated in or conducted an illegal act, gross negligence or deliberate or willful disregard of regulations or procedures, including reporting to work under the influence of controlled substances, physical assault of a coworker or Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
passenger, theft of agency property, unreported safety events, unreported collisions, and unreported passenger injuries or fatalities.
b) To provide guidelines for facilitating the timely correction of unsafe conditions or hazards by the City management.
Description: a) This program provides a method for City management to identify, evaluate, and correct or avoid unsafe conditions or hazards, procedural deficiencies, design inadequacies, equipment failures, or near misses that adversely affect the safety of employees.
Examples of voluntary safety reports include:
1. Safety hazards in the operating environment (for example, county or city road conditions),
2. Policies and procedures that are not working as intended (for example, insufficient time to complete pre-trip inspection),
3. Events that senior managers might not otherwise know about (for example, near misses), and
4. Information about why a safety event occurred (for example, communication challenges).
b) The program also involves recommending corrective actions and resolutions of identified unsafe conditions or hazards and/or near miss. c) All employees have the obligation to report immediately any unsafe conditions or hazards and near misses to their immediate supervisor /department manager and may do so without fear of reprisal.
d) Unsafe conditions or hazards may also be identified as a result of occupational injury or illness investigations and/or by accident investigation. e) Other means by which hazards may be identified are inspections/audits or observations made by the supervisors/management staff as referenced in the Agency’s Safety Inspection Program.
f) Findings will be published immediately following mitigation actions. If employee identification is available, direct feedback regarding mitigation will be provided.

The second component of the City’s SMS is Safety Risk Management, which includes processes and procedures to provide an understanding of the Agency’s operations and vehicle maintenance to allow individuals to identify hazards associated with those activities.
The City has implemented a SRM process for all elements of its transportation system.
The SRM process includes the following activities: safety hazard identification, safety risk assessment, and safety risk mitigation.
6.1 - Safety Hazard Identification
Hazard identification is the first step in the SRM process and a key component. It involves these fundamental safety-related activities: Identifying safety hazards and their consequences; assessing the risks associated with the consequences of the hazards; and developing mitigations to eliminate or reduce the potential consequences of the identified hazards.
The following are the City’s methods and processes to identify hazards. The Agency considers, as a source for hazard identification, data and information provided by an oversight authority and the FTA. Hazards are also identified through a variety of additional local sources, including:
o Employee safety reporting,
o Review of vehicle camera footage,
o Review of monthly performance data and safety performance targets, o Observations from supervisors,
o Maintenance reports,
o Comments from customers, passengers, and third parties, o Safety committee, driver and all-staff meetings,
o Results of audits and inspections of vehicles and facilities, o Results of training assessments
o Investigations into safety events, incidents and occurrences, and o Information from FTA and oversight authorities.
When a hazard has been identified, whatever the source, it is reported to the City’s Chief Safety Officer, who enters it into the Hazard Log. The Chief Safety Officer also may enter hazards into this log based on personal reviews of operations and maintenance activities and procedures.
The Chief Safety Officer will investigate hazards to collect information and determine if hazards need to be entered into the SRA process. In following up on identified hazards, the Chief Safety Officer may:
o Reach out to the reporting party, if available, to gather all known information about the reported hazard,
o Conduct a walkthrough of the affected area, assessing the possible hazardous condition, generating visual documentation (photographs and/or video), and taking any measurements deemed necessary,
Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
o Conduct interviews with employees in the area to gather potentially relevant information on the reported hazard,
o Review any documentation associated with the hazard (records, reports, procedures, inspections, technical documents, etc.),
o Contact other departments that may have association with or technical knowledge relevant to the reported hazard,
o Review any past reported hazards of a similar nature, and o Evaluate tasks and/or processes associated with the reported hazard.
Any identified hazard that poses an immediate risk to transit operations, the health and safety of employees or the public, or equipment must immediately be brought to the attention of the Accountable Executive and placed into the Safety Risk Management process for safety risk assessment and mitigation. Otherwise, hazards will be prioritized for further Safety Risk Management activity.
6.2 Safety Risk Assessment (SRA)
SRA defines the level or degree of the safety risk by assessing the likelihood and severity of the consequences of hazards and prioritizes hazards based on the safety risk. The Chief Safety Officer, with assistance from key staff subject matter experts, is responsible for assessing identified hazards and ratings using the safety risk matrix below. Prioritizing safety risk provides the Accountable Executive with the information needed to make decisions about resource application.
The following matrix, adopted from the Transportation Safety Institute (TSI) Participation Guide – SMS Principles for Transit, facilitates the ranking of hazards based on their probability of occurrence and severity of their outcome.
Probability Levels
Description Level Specific Individual Item Fleet Inventory Frequent A
Likely to occur often in the life of an
item. Continuously experienced.
Probable B
Will occur several times in the life of an
item. Will occur frequently.
Occasional C
Likely to occur sometime in the life of
an item. Will occur several times.
Remote D
Unlikely, but possible to occur in the life
of an item.
Unlikely, but can reasonably be
expected to occur.
Improbable E
So unlikely, it can be assumed
occurrence man not be experienced in
the life of an item.
Unlikely to occur, but possible.
Eliminated F
Incapable of occurrence. This level is
used when potential hazards are
identified and later eliminated.
Incapable of occurrence. This level is
used when potential hazards are
identified and later eliminated.
The measuring goes from A to F with A being frequent or likely to occur frequently and E being improbable or expected that this event will most likely never occur. The designation F is used when potential hazards are identified and later eliminated.

Severity Levels
Description Level Mishap Result Criteria
Catastrophic 1
Could Result in one or more of the following: death, permanent total disability, irreversible significant environmental impact, or monetary loss equal to or exceeding $10M
Critical 2
Could result in one or more of the following: permanent partial disability, injuries or occupational illness that may result in hospitalization of at least three personnel, reversible significant environmental impact, or monetary loss equal to or exceeding $1M but less than $10M
Marginal 3
Could result in one or more of the following: injuries or occupational illness resulting in one or more lost work day(s), reversible moderate environmental impact, or monetary loss equal to or exceeding $100k but less than $1M Negligible 4
Could result in one or more of the following: injuries or occupational illness not resulting in lost work day, minimum environmental impact. Or monetary loss less than $100k.
The Safety Risk Severity Table presents a typical safety risk. It includes four categories to denote the level of severity of the occurrence of a consequence, the meaning of each category, and the assignment of a value to each category using numbers. In this table, 1 is considered catastrophic meaning possible deaths and/or equipment destroyed and 4 is considered negligible or of little consequence with two levels in between.
Safety Risk Probability and Safety Risk Severity are combined into the Safety Risk Index Ranking to help prioritize safety risks according to the table below.

Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
6.3 - Safety Risk Mitigation
The Chief Safety Officer, assisted by Key Staff subject matter experts, reviews current safety risk mitigations and established procedures to 1) eliminate; 2) mitigate; 3) accept specific risks. Prioritization of safety remediation measures is based on risk analysis and a course of action acceptable to City management.
The safety risk must be mitigated if ranked as Unacceptable (High- Red). Those safety risks that have been mitigated, even those mitigated risks shown as Acceptable status (Low -Green) undergo regular and consistent monitoring to ensure the mitigation strategy is effective.
Key strategies to minimize the types of risks that potentially exist include:
Development and deployment of policies and procedures that address known hazards and risks,
Discussion of other actions, strategies and procedures that might help safeguard against unknown/unforeseen risks,
Training of drivers and other Agency staff on all safety policies and procedures, Training of drivers and other Agency staff on methodologies for handling emergencies, and
Training of drivers and staff on proper and effective use of emergency equipment and communication technologies and protocol.
Safety risk mitigations are tracked and updated in the Hazard Log by the Chief Safety Officer.
Section 7 - Safety Assurance
The third component of the Agency’s SMS is Safety Assurance, which ensures the performance and effectiveness of safety risk controls established under SRM. Safety Assurance also helps ensure that the organization meets or exceeds its safety objectives through the collection, analysis, and assessment of data regarding the organization's performance. Safety Assurance includes inspection activities to support oversight and performance monitoring.
City monitors its operations and maintenance protocols and procedures, and any safety risk mitigations to ensure that it is implementing them as planned. Furthermore, the Agency investigates safety events, as defined in the City of Thousand Oaks Injury and Illness Prevention Program (Appendix II), and any reports of non-compliance with applicable regulations, standards, and legal authority. Finally, the Agency continually monitors information reported to it through any internal safety reporting programs, including the employee safety reporting program.
Some of the key elements of City’s Safety Performance Monitoring and Measurement are shown below in subsection 7.1:
7.1 - Safety Performance Monitoring and Measurement
As part of the Safety Assurance Process, City:
Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
1. Monitors the system for compliance with, and sufficiency of, the Agency’s procedures for operations and maintenance through:
a. Safety audits,

a. Reviewing results from accident, incident, and occurrence investigations, b. Monitoring employee safety reporting,
c. Reviewing results of internal safety audits and inspections, and d. Analyzing operational and safety data to identify emerging safety concerns.
3. Conducts investigations of safety events to identify causal factors; and
4. Monitors information reported through any internal safety reporting programs. a. The Chief Safety Officer routinely reviews safety data captured in employee safety reports, safety meeting minutes, customer complaints, and other safety communication channels. When necessary, the Chief Safety Officer ensures that the issues and concerns are investigated or analyzed through the SRA process.
b. The Chief Safety Officer also reviews the results of internal and external reviews, including audits and assessments, with findings affecting safety performance, compliance with operations and maintenance procedures, or the effectiveness of safety risk mitigations. The Chief Safety Officer discusses relevant safety issues and concerns with the Accountable Executive and executive management and documents the results of these reviews in the Hazard Log.
In the event of a fatality, City complies with all FTA drug and alcohol requirements.
In California, every driver involved in an accident that results in death, injury, or property damage over $1000, must report the accident on a Report of Traffic Accident Occurring in California (SR 1) form to DMV. The report forms are available at www.dmv.ca.gov, by calling 1-800-777-0133, and at CHP and DMV offices. Also, under California Vehicle Code §16002(b) the driver of a vehicle that is owned or operated by a publicly owned or operated transit system, or that is operated under contract with a publicly owned or operated transit system, and that is used to provide regularly scheduled transportation to Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
the general public or for other official business of the system shall, within 10 days of the occurrence of the accident, report to the transit system any accident of a type otherwise required to be reported pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 16000 . The City requires driver notification to the City immediately and maintains records of any report filed pursuant to this paragraph.
Section 8 Safety Promotion
The fourth component of the Agency’s SMS is Safety Promotion, which includes a combination of training and communication of safety information to employees to enhance the City’s safety performance. Safety Promotion sets the tone for the SMS and helps the City to establish and maintain a robust safety culture. Safety Promotion has twocomponents: (1) Safety Communication; and (2) Competencies and Training.
8.1 - Safety Communication
The City communicates safety and safety performance information throughout the organization that, at a minimum, conveys information on hazards and safety risks relevant to employees’ roles and responsibilities and informs employees of safety actions taken in response to reports submitted through an employee safety reporting program.
Ongoing safety communication is critical, and the City ensures communication occurs up, down, and across all levels of the organization. Any lessons learned are communicated to all concerned. Management commitment to address safety concerns and hazards is communicated on a regular basis. Management encourages and motivates employees to communicate openly, authentically, and without concern for reprisal; ensures employees are aware of SMS principles and understand their safety-related roles and responsibilities; conveys safety critical information such as accident data, injuries, and reported safety concerns and hazards and their resolutions to employees. City’s tools to support safety communication include:
Safety bulletins
Safety notices
Posters
CDs or Thumb drives or online safety video access
Newsletters
Briefings or Toolbox talks
Seminars and workshops
New employee training and refresher training
Intranet or social media
Safety Committee Meetings
Competencies and Training: Executive Management ensures that all employees attend the training provided to understand their specific roles and responsibilities for the implementation of SMS. The City provides SMS training in the following areas:

POLICY STATEMENT
The City of Thousand Oaks believes that employees are its most important resource and their safety is one of its principal responsibilities. Safety must be an integral part of all City activities and operations. Our objective is to administer all activities and operations to achieve and maintain protection for employees and reduce injuries and accidents.
We recognize that a program for safe working conditions is a partnership between all managers, supervisors and employees. Management’s responsibility is to be aware of known safety hazards and shall provide appropriate equipment, training, and supervision to each employee. Each employee shall be committed to and responsible for their own personal safety and that of their co-workers.
The prevention of injuries and accidents is an objective affecting all levels of the City and its activities. It is, therefore, a basic requirement that each manager and supervisor make the safety of their employees an integral part of their regular functions and observations. It is equally the responsibility of each employee to accept and follow established safety regulations and procedures.
The management of the City of Thousand Oaks is committed to this partnership and to an excellent safety program. It is with this intent that this Illness and Injury Prevention Program (IIPP) was developed. By accepting mutual responsibility to perform our jobs safely, we will all contribute to the well-being of the City of Thousand Oaks, its employees and citizens.

SAFETY COMMUNICATION
Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
It is the policy of the City to discuss safety and accident prevention with employees on a regular basis. The City’s IIPP encourages employees to communicate with all levels of management on safety and health matters. The IIPP also provides means for management to keep employees informed about safety and health issues.
Communication between employees and supervisors regarding safety and health issues is essential to an injury-free, productive workplace. During the initial safety orientation, employees will be informed of the importance of workplace safety and employees will be encouraged to report any unsafe conditions to their immediate supervisor.
Employees are advised that there will be no supervisory retaliation or discrimination for expressing concern, comment, suggestion, or complaint about a safety-related matter.
An effective safety communication system encourages employees to inform the City of hazards at the workplace without fear of retaliation or discrimination. This communication system may take many forms, including, but not necessarily limited to the following:
Safety Committee Meetings: The City’s Safety Committee is responsible for disseminating information to their department head and employees and documenting departmental safety activities. The minutes of Safety Committee meetings will be made available to employees.
Under the direction of the Program Administrator, the Safety Committee’s general objective is to advise the Program Administrator or designee on various means of achieving increased employee safety in City operations, on an ongoing basis. The Committee shall establish procedures to carry out its general objective; review accident reports and identified causations; analyze and assess existing safety practices and procedures; propose modifications and amendments to current practices and procedures, with due regard for state safety and health regulations and standards; assess and make recommendations to the Program Administrator pertaining to employee safety matters; and disseminate workplace safety information and familiarize employees with existing safety procedures.
The Safety Committee’s responsibilities may include, but are not limited to:
• • Assist in the design and implementation of safety and loss control programs. • • Monitor the effectiveness of the IIPP and propose action for changes. • • Monitor and coordinate existing safety training programs and determine if new programs are warranted.
• • Monitor safety inspections of City facilities and ensure necessary corrective actions are completed.
• • Disseminate information and keep informed of new safety regulations and standards.
• • Participate in the follow-up on accident and injury investigations. • • Conduct work area safety inspections.
Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
General Safety Meetings: The City shall regularly conduct general safety meetings where safety issues can be discussed freely and openly by all present. Such meetings will be announced with sufficient notice so that maximum participation can occur.
Communication regarding safety rules, safe working conditions, work practices, required personal protective equipment, and causes of recent accidents and injuries and methods used to prevent similar accidents may be discussed. Crewleaders or senior personnel working in the field or construction areas will conduct regular or mandated “tailgate” meetings to emphasize safety. Attendance at safety meetings shall be documented.
Written Communication: The City may periodically post or distribute written safety notifications and directives to employees. Employees shall read such documents promptly and direct questions about the meaning or implementation of the information to their supervisor.
Suggestions: Employees are encouraged to make suggestions regarding safety and safety training to their supervisor, the Program Administrator, or the Human Resources Department. Such suggestions may be made anonymously. Suggestions will be reviewed by the Program Administrator or designee and action taken as appropriate to ensure continuing compliance with safety regulations.
Bulletin Boards: The City will regularly maintain and post safety-related materials on bulletin boards located throughout the City.
Recording Employee Safety Efforts: Employees shall be evaluated for their compliance with safe work practices as part of the annual performance evaluation. Employees making a significant contribution to the maintenance of a safe workplace, as determined by their department management, will receive formal recognition of their efforts in their personnel file and annual performance appraisal.
HAZARD ASSESSMENT AND CONTROL
Hazard control is a critical component of an effective IIPP. Periodic inspections provide a method of identifying existing or potential hazards to be eliminated and/or corrected in the workplace.
Inspections
The Program Administrator or designee shall conduct or participate in periodic inspections. All inspections will be documented by using site-specific Safety Inspection Checklists, which shall be reviewed by the Program Administrator or designee. The Program Administrator may send notices to appropriate supervisors for immediate correction of specific hazards. When safety hazards are corrected, the action taken will be indicated on the Safety Inspection Checklist, which will be signed and dated by the individual who was responsible for overseeing the corrections. A copy of the inspection report and corrections will be kept in the Human Resources Department.
Types of inspections may include:
Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
Routine Inspections: Inspections will be conducted routinely, in each work area, on an announced or unannounced basis, or as determined by the Program Administrator.
Introduction of New Materials: Inspections will be conducted upon introduction of new substances, processes, procedures or equipment, which may present a new safety or health hazard. The Program Administrator or designee may conduct an inspection upon receipt of a Safety Inspection Checklist that indicates a hazard is present, or any other correspondence reporting a hazard from a supervisor or employee, or upon otherwise learning of new or previously unrecognized safety or health hazards.
Post-Incident: Whenever a work-related injury, illness, or accident occurs, the Program Administrator will be informed immediately. A follow-up inspection shall be conducted as determined to be necessary by the Program Administrator or designee.
Hazard Identification
Inspections/evaluations will also be performed whenever any new substance, process, procedure, or equipment is introduced into the workplace, or when the City is made aware of a new or previously unrecognized hazard.
Priorities will be determined by the severity of the hazard(s) identified. Employees will be protected from imminent hazards by means which include, but are not limited to, fixing or replacing defective equipment, installing guards or modifying equipment, training employees, posting warning signs, or by other means of adequately protecting employees from exposure.
Job Safety Analysis
A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is an effective method to identify hazards in various tasks.
Under the direction of the Program Administrator, JSAs will be conducted by designated supervisors or managers. JSAs will be developed for tasks that have a potential for serious injuries or where there has been an injury or incident that could have caused serious injury.
CORRECTING UNSAFE CONDITIONS AND PRACTICES
To maintain a safe and healthy work environment, potentially hazardous workplace conditions or practices must be corrected in a timely manner. The following procedures provide a system to evaluate and correct any unsafe conditions or work practices.
Unsafe Conditions or Hazards
Any employee observing a situation needing corrective action beyond the employee’s authority or expertise shall immediately report the situation to their supervisor or manager.
Imminent Danger
Any piece of equipment or machinery that poses an imminent danger to employees or others shall be tagged out with a “Danger-Don’t Use It” equipment tag or other suitable warning label. If needed, the area shall be blocked off except for authorized personnel Item No.7N
DPW: 940-10\na\Council\2022\061422\Annual PTASP 2022
performing repairs. The supervisor and/or Facilities Manager should be immediately notified of this action.
Retaliation
No employee shall be retaliated against for reporting potential or actual hazards, or for making safety-related suggestions or comments.
ACCIDENT AND INJURY INVESTIGATION
Employees shall notify their supervisor as soon as possible after an accident or injury occurs. Supervisors are responsible for ensuring that proper medical treatment or evaluation is provided to any injured employee. The supervisor shall immediately notified the Program Administrator or designee of the need to eliminate or control any obvious hazards that may have contributed to a serious accident or injury, or request necessary resources to abate any ongoing hazard. An accident and injury investigation shall be commenced by the supervisor immediately, with the assistance and/or oversight of the Program Administrator. The purpose of the investigation is to obtain the facts involved and to determine, if possible, the root cause of the accident or injury. It is important to remember that the purpose of an accident and injury investigation is not to establish fault, but to determine the causes and types of corrective actions can eliminate the cause(s) of the accident or injury.
When conducting an accident and injury investigation, the supervisor should determine:
• • What happened – This may involve a reconstruction of conditions or events that may have led to the accident or injury.
• • Why did the accident or injury occur – This involves documenting the conditions at the scene of the incident, obtaining witness statements, and identifying causative factors.
• • What should be done to minimize or eliminate the risk of a recurrence – Interim or temporary precautions should be considered as measures to prevent an immediate recurrence.
• • What actions have been taken – Permanent corrective actions should be identified in terms of how to prevent a future recurrence.
