CIT. OF SAN BERNARDlh,.J - REQUE~( FOR COUNCIL ACT_ON
STAFF REPORT
Some years ago, the U.S. Air Force purchased the old
Aerospace Building, on the southwest corner of Tippecanoe Avenue
and Mill Street, to house their Ballistic Missile Operations
( BMO) .
The Air Force inquired of the City, if it would be
possible for Tippecanoe Avenue and Mill Street, adjacent to the
BMO, to be vacated. This request was based upon the desire for
the BMO complex to be included wi thin Norton Air Force Base
perimeter. Inclusion of the BMO complex wi thin the base would
improve security for this sensitive facility.
After reviewing this request, it was determined that these
streets could be vacated, contingent upon an adequate by-pass
being constructed for through traffic. Several alternates for a
by-pass were prepared by a local civil engineering firm. There
was a general concensus that the one incorporating Central
Avenue, Gifford Avenue, and construction of a new street from the
terminus of Gifford Avenue to the intersection of Mill Street and
Lena Road, was the best alternate. A map of this alternate is
attached for reference.
An analysis of traffic volumes in the area, and how they
would be affected by the closure of these streets, has been
conducted by the Traffic Engineering Section. This analysis
indicates that the existing streets would operate at an
acceptable level of service with the adjustments in current
traffic volumes due to the closure of these streets. However,
the by-pass for through traffic would be needed for future
traffic.
The Air Force and Inland Action have been going to
Washington, D. C. for the past several years to request funds to
construct the by-pass. While they have not been successful, the
prospects appear good. Vacation proceedings will be initiated
after the funds are secured to permanently close these portions
of Tippecanoe Avenue and Mill Street.
There are some private properties on the west side of
Tippecanoe Avenue, between Central Avenue and BMO, and on the
south side of Mill Street, between Lena Road and BMO. We will
mail notices of the public hearing to these property owners. It
is suggested that the City Clerk publish a block notice of the
public hearing in a newspaper of general circulation.
Authori ty for a temporary street closure is granted by
Section 21101 (a) of the California Vehicle Code, providing the
legislative body, in their opinion, finds that the street is no
longer needed for vehicular traffic.
We recommend that a public hearing be set for 10:00 a.m.
on 12-19-88.
