1. Approve an appropriation adjustment to recognize Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Public Education on
Bicycle Safety grant funds in the amount of $75,000 into the OTS -PWA Traffic Safety Grants revenue
account and appropriate the same in the OTS -Bicycle Safety PWA expenditure account.
2. Authorize the City Manager and Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with the State of
California Office of Traffic Safety for a one-year period covering the Federal fiscal year from October 1,
2017, through September 30, 2018, for Pedestrian and Bicycle and Safety Program funds in an
amount not to exceed $75,000, subject to nonsubstantive changes approved by the City Manager and
City Attorney.
3. Authorize the City Manager and the Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with NeighborWorks
Orange County to provide bicycle safety education services, for the period beginning November 21,

nonsubstantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The Santa Ana Public Works Agency has been awarded a $75,000 Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety
Education Program grant from the State of California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS). These funds will be
used to address pedestrian and bicycle safety through a series of education workshops and events. The
goal the program is to reduce the number of deaths and injuries in traffic collisions involving bicycles. For
the purposes of expediting the release of a Request for Proposals (RFP) and the delivery of this program,
the approval of the agreement with OTS was delayed so it could be included in this single Council action,
rather than multiple Council actions.
The bilingual (English and Spanish) education and outreach campaign is intended to reach youth, adults,
and seniors. It will include bicycle safety skills classes taught by League of American Bicyclists Certified
Instructors, nighttime pedestrian and bicycle light and helmet distribution events, pedestrian and bicycle
safety rodeos, and a train -the -trainer seminar for new instructors.

Appropriation Adjustment and Agreements for
Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Program
November 21, 2017
Page 2
An RFP for education services was released and distributed on September 29, 2017, to qualified
pedestrian and bicycle education organizations. Proposals were due October 18, 2017. While the City
only received one proposal, that proposal is a partnership from multiple local organizations
(NeighborWorks, Santa Ana Active Streets, Bicycle Tree, KidWorks, and Latino Health Access)
collaborating on a single proposal. Due to the unique nature of the work, staff does not believe that a new
RFP process would result in additional proposals from other qualified organizations and that would only
further delay providing these necessary safety programs. Therefore, staff recommends that
NeighborWorks Orange County be retained to provide education services for an amount not to exceed
$75,000. Based on local community experience, qualifications, project understanding, and familiarity with
the grant source, this organization has demonstrated they have the experience and resources needed to
successfully provide the required services.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #1 - Community Safety, Objective #3
(promote fiscal accountability to ensure financial responsibility at all levels of the organization), Strategy B
(promote ongoing efforts to obtain grant funding for activities that will assist in preventing, enforcing and
reducing criminal activity and traffic collisions).
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
Upon approval of the recommended appropriation adjustment, $75,000 of grant funds will be recognized
into the OTS -PWA Traffic Safety Grants Fund revenue account (No. 16517002-52001) and appropriated
into the OTS -Bicycle Safety PWA Fund expenditure account (No. 16517611-66220, Project No. 18-6884).
Funds will be available for expenditure as follows:

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
With a population of just under 330,000; the City of Santa Ana is one of the fourteen highest population cities in the
State (Group A). The City is approximately 27.1 square miles. Santa Ana has a large volume of motor vehicle traffic,
with the arterials carrying 30,000 to 40,000 vehicles per day. There are also four freeways that converge within the city
and a total of 450 miles of streets.
Relative income and vehicle ownership levels within the City are significantly lower than statewide averages. The City
population's median age is the youngest of the seven largest cities in Orange County and the residential density is one
of the highest in the State. Transit ridership in Santa Ana is the highest in the County with several of the busiest Orange
County Transportation Authority bus lines serving the City. Because of climate and demographics, bicycle dependent
population is relatively high when compared to other communities in the County or the State. Also, a significant
portion of the adult bicyclists may not speak English or understand the tyles of the road.
In 2012 the City of Santa Ana ranked 3/13 for bicycle involved collisions and 4/13 in bicycle collisions (under 15), hi
2013 those rankings increased to 1/14 for bicycle involved collisions and 2/14 in bicycle collisions (under 15). In

road for entering traffic at intersections and riding in the street. The class is designed to increase
bicyclist's safety awareness of common car/bike collisions, teach ways to prevent and avoid
crashes and collisions, and emphasize the importance of helmet use when riding a bicycle. This
class covers bicyclist rules of the road, basic principles of bicycling in traffic, common hazards
encountered by bicyclists and how to deal with them, simple steps to ensure your bike is in good
condition, and proper helmet fit and adjustment. Likewise, the rights and responsibilities of
cyclists are embedded throughout the classroom and on -bike instruction to help increase the
number of cyclists riding safely and legally. Each participant will receive a certificate of
completion upon mastering the course. This reinforces pride and confidence in what they have
learned.
Conduct three (3) adult bike education classes in the City of Santa Ana. At least one (1) of these
classes will be taught in Spanish. Traffic Skills 101 is designed to increase bicyclist's safety
awareness of common car/bike collisions, teach ways to prevent and avoid crashes and
collisions, and emphasize the importance of helmet use when riding a bicycle. Likewise, the
rights and responsibilities of cyclists are embedded throughout the classroom and on -bike
instruction to help increase the number of cyclists riding safely and legally. The classroom
session. offers students a theoretical explanation of vehicular cycling principles supported by
relevant examples of safe cycling using audio/visual and group learning teclviiques. Students are
required to complete the classroom session before taking the on -bike session. The on -bike
session provides practical application of the theoretical element to give each student a
fundamental understanding of safe, legal and effective cycling techniques to reach any
destination by bicycle. Students first practice bike -handling skills and evasive maneuvers on a
vacant paved area before riding on city streets in a group ride led by experienced instructors.
Following each class surveys will be conducted to collect comments and ideas from both
students and instructors to improve and expand future classes.

Task 2: Organize and Host a League Cycling Instructor (LCI) Certification Seminar
To ensure the longevity of the program one LCI Seminar will be conducted before the final
mouth of the funding cycle, September 2018. Completion of a Traffic Skills 101 course is a
prerequisite for attending the seminar. LCI candidates will be cultivated from the participants in
the Traffic Skills 101 classes, especially cyclists who demonstrate knowledge and experience
combined with a desire to snake cycling safe and accessible for others.
Prior to the seminar, LCI candidates are required to take an open -book exam and achieve a score
of 85% or greater in order to attend the seminar, The League of American Bicyclist's assigns
Coaches from among a small group of its Master Instructors who are experienced at leading
Seminars and coaching others to teach safe cycling. All Seminar Coaches have at least four
years -experience teaching students as LCls, and have attended several LCT Seminars as
observers and assistant coaches. Each coach has a broad knowledge of bicycle safety instruction
and equipment maintenance. They are experts in the League's Smart Cycling program.
Additionally, many coaches have advanced training in bicycle mechanics, have experience with
both mountain biking and road cycling, have done long-distance self -supported cycle touring, are
active members of advocacy groups, and serve as officers in their local bicycle clubs.
The LCI seminar is a comprebensive train the trainer workshop that includes 25 hours of
instruction, exercises and practice teaching both in the classroom and on the bike, The seminar
emphasis is on how to teach bicycle safety and handling skills that provide increased comfort
and confidence for new and returning cyclists and youth. During the seminar each LCI candidate
is given the opportunity to practice teach parts of the Traffic Skills 101 curriculum, both in the
classroom and on a vacant parking lot.
Feedback from Coaches and Peer critiques are an important part of this activity. Certified
instructors can teach the League of American Bicyclists Smart Cycling classes to children as
well as adults. The League's Smart Cycling bicycle education curriculum includes Traffic Skills
101 (the basic introductory/intermediate course for adult cyclists), Traffic Skills 201 (an.
advanced adult course), Kids 1 (designed for parents of children under 10 years of age), and Kids
2 (designed for children age 10-14). A readily available stable of knowledgeable and experienced
LCI's will help sustain the program and foster growth and expansion to other cities within the
region.
Task 3: Procure Supplies and Conduct iLuces Vivas! Events—
iLuces Vivas! is an education and night light distribution program intended to make sure people
riding bikes and walking in Santa Ana are doing so safely at night. When riding at night in
California, a white front light and rear reflectors are required by law (CVC21201). More
importantly, riding without lights and reflectors is dangerous. According to the most recent data
from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 69% of bicyclist fatalities in 2012 in
the U.S. were in urban areas, and 48% of the bicyclist fatalities occurred between 4:00 pin and
midnight (NHTSA "Traffic Safety Facts" April 2014 DOT I -IS 812 018). Our goal is to seek out
people riding or walking without lights for various reasons, especially those who may not have
the moans or time to acquire lights on their own.
City of Santa Ana RFP 17-113
2�i� `N
The City and convnunity partners will organize iLuces Vivas! to meet for ten (10) street
distributions at undisclosed locations throughout Santa Ana where night-time bicycle ridership
and pedestrian activity is expected to be high and where the City has seen a history of incidents
involving bicyclists and pedestrians at night. iLuces Vivas! members will stop people who are
riding bikes or walking without lights in order to give them front and rear lights (which can be
worn on shoes or belts of pedestrians) along with an information "spoke card" that explains the
law for riding at night as well as tips they should know for night-time safety. The spoke cards are
printed in English and Spanish and iLuces Vivas! will include at least a few members who speak
Spanish (as well as female members to encourage female riders to stop). Additionally, cyclists
who are not wearing helmets will be fitted and provided a helmet.
The selected consultant will be responsible for procuring 1,000 helmets and 1,000 lights that
meet the OTS Buy America requirements. It is expected that 50-100 light sets and/or helmets
will be distributed at each event, depending on expected bicyclist and pedestrian volume. Our
goal will be to distribute all the lights and helmets allocated for each event.
Task 4: Conduct Pedestrian and Bicycle Traffic Safety Fairs
Conduct four (4) pedestrian and bicycle traffic safety fairs. In the spirit of a bike rodeo, the
Traffic Safety Fair- would teach students how to interact with the roadway and traffic. Whether
they are walking or biking, the goal of the course would be to increase safety awareness and
confidence -of the student. The class would cover everything from using the different intersection
devices, bicycling in the roadway, bicycle safety inspections, and helmet fit. The course would
use a combination of simulation and hands on training to teach the student how to make safe
decisions while walking or riding within the roadway. The training would utilize chalk,
cardboard cut-outs, and other techniques to simulate possible roadway conditions/hazards.
Classes would be conducted on a safe flat area on local public parks and/or school grounds. Age
appropriate bicycles would be made available for youth that do not have their bicycle with them.
Students that complete both the pedestrian and bicycle section would receive a free helmet and
lights.
