RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AUTHORIZING
THE EXECUTION OF FIVE AGREEMENTS WITH ADKAN ENGINEERS,
J.F. DAVIDSON ASSOCIATES, INC., THE PLANNING CENTER,
SMITH, PERONI & FOX PLANNING CONSULTANTS, INC., AND
URBAN DESIGN STUDIO FOR EXPEDITIOUS REVIEW SERVICES FOR

program.
Bob Cantu, J.F.B. & Associates of Riverside, California,
also associated with ACC Corporation in West Covina, California,
addressed the issue of the developers having the option to select
the least costly consultant to perform these expeditious
services. He felt that the various amounts charged by these
consultants should be clarified.
The Council discussed meeting with the proposed five
consultants to see if the consultants would agree on a middle
ground for just one rate.
Larry Reed answered questions regarding the anticipated
amount of money to be received through the use of this expedited
review service program.
It was suggested by Council that instead of setting a
specific dollar amount that the consultants can charge, a list
of qualified consultants be established so that the developers
could select which consultant they wished the city to use.
Larry Reed explained the purpose of going through the
request for proposals process. He stated that through this
process, he was able to determine the hourly rate a consultant
may charge.
He further stated that if the amount of the various fees
charged by the consultants is a concern of the council, staff can
renegotiate, with the help of the attorneys, for a mutual fee
that is acceptable to Council in an approximate amount of $60.00.
Mr. Reed answered questions regarding reasons why the
developer cannot negotiate directly with the design review firm
for expedited review services. He stated that there is the
appearance of conflict of interest when a developer hires his own
firm directly to do the review of plans. The best way to avoid
the appearance of conflict of interest is to have the developer
put up the money to cover the cost for the expedited review
service. The money is then used to pay the outside consultant.
Senior Assistant City Attorney Barlow stated that from a
legal standpoint, the design review consultant has to work
directly for the city.
15

Mr. Cantu reiterated his concern regarding the developer
being able to choose the cheapest of the five consultants for
expedited review services.

resolution be adopted.

Council Member Miller made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Maudsley and unanimously carried, that the resolution be

ORAL REPORT - CAROB TREES - HIGHLAND AND "D" STREETS -
CONTINUED FROM DECEMBER 18, 1989
In reports dated January 3, 1990 and January 8, 1990,
Samuel L. Knapp, Consulting Arborist of Knapp Associates, P. O.
Box 8796, Riverside, California 92515, provided decay detection
and root crown analyses and observations. He also provided
recommendations regarding the care of the four carob trees
located on the southwest corner of "D" Street and Highland
Avenue. (55)
Samuel L. Knapp, Consulting Arborist of Knapp Associates,
presented his concerns regarding the four carob trees located on
the southwest corner of "D" Street and Highland Avenue. He stated
that on the curb or street side of the trees, it would be very
difficult or close to impossible to protect the trees and still
install the hardscapes, curbs and gutters in the same alignment
where they are now.
Mr. Knapp stated that, in his opinion, the alignment of curb
and gutters could not be moved much either east or west and
still provide adequate water flow.
Manuel Moreno, Jr., Director of Public Services, answered
questions regarding moving the curb line out a few more inches in
order to save the trees.
Mr. Knapp suggested that the trees could be replaced with
another desirable species.
29
1/8/90
Mr. Moreno answered questions regarding the recurrence of
storm drain problems if the trees are not removed. He
recommended however, that the four carob trees be removed for
liability reasons and be replaced with four pear trees of the
evergreen type.
Council Member Maudsley made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Flores, that the four carob trees on the southwest corner
of "D" Street and Highland Avenue be removed and replaced with
four pear trees of the evergreen type.

Members Estrada, Flores, Maudsley, Miller. Noes: Council Member
Pope-Ludlam. Absent: Council Members Reilly, Minor.
PUBLIC HEARING - CITY-WIDE STREET LIGHTING AND SWEEPING
ASSESSMENT DISTRICT
In a memorandum dated October 24, 1989, Roger Hardgrave,
Director of Public Works/City Engineer, requested authorization
to proceed with the establishment of an assessment district for
city-wide street lighting and sweeping services. (63 & 57)
Mayor Holcomb explained the purpose of establishing a city-
wide street lighting and sweeping assessment district. He stated
that the main reason for the public hearing is to discuss a
method of bringing together new resources for additional police
officers.
Daniel Robbins, Chief of Police gave an overview of the
manpower needs in the police department. In his presentation,
Chief Robbins addressed the issues of slow response time to calls
for police services; increased rate in homicides; increased
activity involving gangs and drugs in the city; manpower and
equipment needs for the police department.
SLOW RESPONSE TIME
Chief Robbins stated that response time to calls for police
services is broken down into priorities starting from the
highest priority involving life threatening situations to the
least priority of filing report of misdemeanor incidents. He
stated that it takes an average of 46 minutes to respond to calls
involving felony crimes such as burglary. This slow response
time is due primarily because of a lack of manpower.
INCREASE IN HOMICIDES - GANGS AND DRUG ACTIVITY
Chief Robbins gave statistics relating to the homicide rate
in San Bernardino. He stated that in 1987 there were 39 deaths.
Of the 39 deaths, two deaths were related to gangs and eight
deaths were related to drugs. In 1988, there were 51 homicides
of which there were three deaths related to gangs and 14 deaths
related to drugs. In 1989, there were 60 homicides and 12 deaths
were gang related.
30
1/8/90
PERSONNEL AND STAFFING
Chief Robbins stated that the police department has been
authorized to have a total of 244 sworn officers, and 137 non-
sworn officers. He stated that currently there are approximately
fifteen in the patrol division out on injuries. However, steps
have been taken in filing vacancies within the department.
Chief Robbins stated that in 1984, the department received
47 new police officers. The support services area, which
includes records steno and radio dispatch, was not able to keep
pace with the increase of police officers.
He stated that more support personnel is needed to assist
the officers in handling the increase in calls for police
services, to assist with the tremendous amount of paperwork, and
to assist with the investigative follow-up that occurs with a
high crime rate.
CIVILIANIZATION CONCEPT
Chief Robbins explained the concept of civilianization. He
stated that as an economical approach, civilians could perform
many of the functions that are done by police officers.
Currently, police assistants are used in this area. Police
assistants are non-sworn individuals who drive a police unit, and
responds to non-emergency calls and traffic investigations. He
explained that civilians could be also used to impact the "cold
burglary" calls. "Cold burglary" calls occur when a person
finds himself or herself in when their property has been stolen.
EOUIPMENT NEEDS
Chief Robbins stated that there is a need for more efficient
computer equipment. He stated that there is a new item on the
market called MDT which is a computer terminal that is installed
in a patrol unit. These MDT's will allow rapid access to warrant
information on stolen property and can be used for dispatch and
response by police officers.
File Net is another piece of equipment that copies
information onto an optical disc. This equipment would solve
much of the department's storage problems and also provide more
rapid support functions in providing reports to investigative and
narcotics units.
Chief Robbins concluded his presentation by stating that
with an increase in police personnel, the citizens of San
Bernardino will see a reduction in the response time to police
calls and will also see an impact in the crime rate.
31
1/8/90
Mayor Holcomb stated that through the creation of a city-
wide street lighting and sweeping assessment district,
approximately two million dollars could be freed up from the
general funds and be used strictly for new police resources that
include manpower and equipment.
Marshall Julian, City Administrator, stated that the
assessment for these street lighting and street sweeping services
would be paid by single family residents at a cost under $50.00.
Mayor Holcomb added that low-income property owners will be
given an exemption. He stated that the Council is also
considering raising the utility tax exemption to $12,000 for a
single person and $15,000 for a family.
Mayor Holcomb opened the hearing.
Theresa Alcor, 6238 Indigo, San Bernardino, Ca., stated that
she is not opposed to paying her fair share. However, she stated
that exemptions for low-income residents are unfair because a
majority of the crime occurs in low-income neighborhoods. She
further stated that if she has to pay the tax, everyone should
pay the tax.
Mayor Holcomb stated that no neighborhood is immune from
crime.
Sharon Brown of California Gardens area stated that she is
not opposed to paying her fair share. She also responded to Ms.
Alcor's comments regarding crime in low-income neighborhoods.
Roy Calvin Taylor, a resident of the City of San Bernardino,
suggested that the city round up the gangs and get them to sweep
the streets. He further stated that he and others on social
security cannot afford to pay the $50.00 assessment.
Claude Chumley, 1545 W. Gilbert, San Bernardino, spoke in
favor of more police in the city and is willing to pay his fair
share.
Bud Long, owner of U and I Auto Wrecking, opposed the method
of assessment. He suggested a city sales tax to include renters
and visitors in the area.
Mayor Holcomb stated that this assessment would be used
strictly for police resources, and at the same time provide more
street lighting and street sweeping services for the city.
Susan Johnson, a resident who lives on Sundance Drive, San
Bernardino, and Area Director for David Area Neighborhood Watch
Program, spoke in favor of the assessment proposal.
32
1/8/90
Wade Byars, a member of the Senior Affairs Commission, 269
South "K", San Bernardino, stated that he originally opposed the
proposed assessment tax. But after hearing Chief Robbins'
presentation on crime in the city, and the strain on the police
department, he has changed his mind. He also stated that many
of the seniors on fixed incomes will have difficulty paying the
assessment fee.
Mr. Byars answered questions regarding the request of the
Senior Affairs Commission concerning an increase in the exemption
for utility tax.
Rile Barnett, 1100 block of Oak Street, San Bernardino,
spoke in favor of the proposed assessment.
Maine Sharam, resident of Roxbury Drive, San Bernardino,
and Area Director for the Neighborhood Watch Association,
supported the proposed assessment. She stated that most of the
complaints she receives from the neighbors are on slow response
time from the police department.
COUNCIL MEMBER POPE-LUDLAM EXCUSED
Council Member Pope-Ludlam left the council meeting.
Coleen Ho1thouse, 1123 E. 35th Street, San Bernardino,
spoke in favor of the assessment. She suggested that the city
investigate the provision in the law that allows for low-income
property owners to delay payment of their property taxes until
the property has been sold. She suggested the City could apply
this provision to the street light, sweeping assessment district.
Council Member Estrada made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Miller and unanimously carried, that the public hearing be
closed.
Mayor Holcomb requested that further action concerning
authorization to proceed for the city-wide street lighting and
sweeping assessment district be continued until all seven council
members are present.
COUNCIL MEMBER POPE-LUDLAM RETURNED
Council Member Pope-Ludlam returned to the Council meeting
and took her place at the council table.
Council Member Miller made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Maudsley and unanimously carried, that authorization to
proceed with a city-wide street lighting and sweeping assessment
district be referred to the Legislative Review Committee to come
back before the Mayor and Council on March 5, 1990, at 3:00 p.m.,
in the Council Chambers of City Hall, 300 North "D" Street, San
