This coupled with neighborhood crime rates indicates that well-planned security be necessary to protect the RT~ and attract patrons in adequate ~rs. ~ct Description 3g identified the security problems faced by the RTC the City proposed a three tier security program. The security measures Dsed for the RTC are as follows: o Security officer and local police patrols (This is funded by City of Santa Ana in its operational budget) o CCTV surveillance o installation of a fence around the RTC perimeter nbination of idea secure utes follows. these three security measures is necessary to facility. A brief explanation of each of these City is presently working with the Santa Ana Police Department ncorporate high profile police patrol in and around the RTC. tionally, the City is budgeting funds for contractural security ices. However, due to the prohibitive costs of supplying cemen and security guards in sufficient numbers, the RTC will ire supplementary forms of security. second element of the RTC security system is closed circuit vision (CCTV) surveillance. The DOT report notes the CCTV eillance of a station is the best countermeasure other than ng police present in the station. The City has several proposed ra locations throughout the parking area and first floor of the ic areas (see attachments II & III). CCTV has moderate capitol operating costs. The capitol cost of such a system is estimated .e $65,000.00. The operating cost of a CCTV system is ificantly lower than personnel intensive security and will be eted for in center's operating expenses. The proposed system is d upon an estimated 11-14 camera locations. RTC site covers 47,000 square feet and is triangular in shape. side of the site is bordered by the Santa Fe right of way. The r two sides border Santiago Avenue and Santa Ana Boulevard (see chment II). Currently these two sides are accessible from all ts along both streets. The City proposes to enclose these two ,s using a fence which would complement the architectural style .he RTC while at the same time limit access to the Center. Each 'ance and exit will have locking gates. Such a fence is a ~ssary measure given the high incidence of auto theft and lary in the area. The capitol cost of such a project is mated to be $37,000.
