She and the Council met with Dr. Arturo Delgado, Superintendent of the San Bernardino City Unified School District, and the school board, on Monday, December 11. It was a very productive meeting where they discussed at least eight issues of concern for the School District and the City, such as after-school programs, which are now being offered at all of the city's middle schools and 15 of the elementary schools. The City and the School District agreed to a program where both entities would meet to coordinate meetings with the parents at the middle schools. The person in charge of this program for the City will be Linda Jenkins of the Mayor's Office. She noted that there are plans to build two more high schools, three middle schools, and twelve more elementary schools. Also, to learn more about the City Schools and the programs they offer, visit the City website where you can then connect to the City Schools' link. . On Tuesday morning the annual Mayor's Prayer Breakfast was held, which marked the 29th year that this event has taken place in the city. She thanked all who attended, and especially the guest speaker, Judge Patrick Morris, who spoke about civility and how it should be applied each day. . She attended a Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) meeting on Friday where she learned that the City was successful in its request to overturn the directive contained in the Regional Housing Needs Assessment that the City of San Bernardino build 3,000 low-cost housing units. However, the battle is not over, as the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is not granting the waiver, and it will 6 12/18/2000 take the help of all of our legislators to make sure that we reach the governor and the Director of HCD, Maria Contreras Sweet, to help them understand the unique situation that exists in the City of San Bernardino. . She stated she was pleased to see San Bernardino on the map regarding the MAGLEV Deployment Project--that one year ago the City of San Bernardino was not even being considered--but now we are on the map, and it goes straight to the City of San Bernardino and then to Riverside. It was recognized that the logical site is our depot, since we are on line to rehabilitate the depot and the rail lines are already there. The MAGLEV stations that are being projected are LAX (the Airport); West Los Angeles; L.A. Union Station, which will be the hub; Covina/West Covina; the Ontario Airport; San Bernardino; and then central Riverside. Council Member Estrada pointed out that the Mayor had done an excellent job in accomplishing this coup in getting San Bernardino included in this plan--that things like this don't just happen, and the city owes a great deal of recognition to the Mayor for this accomplishment. ANNOUNCEMENTS - CITY ATTORNEY PENMAN (4) City Attorney Penman wished everyone a Merry Christmas, and to those who celebrate Hanukkal1, a Happy Hanukkal1; commented favorably about the "Phantom of the Opera" production and related downtown activity; and made the following amlouncements: . He explained the situation existing at the mobile home park on North Mt. Vernon Avenue, where fIre personnel had found many serious violations such as raw sewage, gas leaks, and exposed electrical wiring. He stated that the decision had been made that the residents of these homes needed to be evacuated; however, the Mayor had assured them that the City was not going to abandon them. He thanked all those involved with the relocation process, supplying meals, interpreting for the residents, and making school arrangements for the children, including Mayor Valles, Council Member Anderson, City Clerk Clark, City Schools, the Salvation Army, the Firefighters Association, and from his office, Josie Soria, Debra Nagy, Suzamle Bryant, and Dolores Delgado. . Thanked the Mayor for taking a motion off the calendar that had to do with attorney fees. . Stated that he wanted to extend his strong positive feelings to the Mayor and to those Council Members who were on the "opposite side" during the recent election that it is over and behind us. He stated that he thinks they 7 12/18/2000 will see by deeds and actions, which speak louder than words, that this is a sincere commitment to them. ANNOUNCEMENTS - CITY ADMINISTRATOR WILSON (4) City Administrator Wilson extended best wishes to everyone for a happy holiday season, noting that City Hall would be closed December 25, 26, and 29 of the following week; however, it will be open for business as usual on Wednesday and Thursday, the 27th and 28th.

PERSONNEL ACTIONS (7) Council Member Anderson stated that at the last Council meeting the Council had adopted a resolution to overstaff one of the City departments, and she questioned 10 12/18/2000 why this is not done with the Development Services Department, since it is such a critical department in the City. She pointed out that the City is now at a point where development is going to take off and a full complement of staff will be needed to maintain the workflow. She also noted that the City needs to be ready and prepared for future building at the former Norton Air Force Base--that staff should take an overview of all departments and see what is needed in terms of staffing requirements. City Administrator Wilson advised that with dispatchers it is a chronic problem, because there is always a number of vacancies, and we are always looking to replace them; however, in this case, there are only a couple of plan check positions and we haven't seen the same kind of problem that we have with dispatchers. He acknowledged, however, that the suggestion is a good one, and that possibly the Personnel Committee could explore this concept further. Council Member Anderson made a motion, seconded by Council Member McCanlffiack, and unanimously carried, that the personnel actions as submitted by the Chief Examiner dated December 13, 2000, in accordance with Civil Service rules and Personnel policies adopted by the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino, be approved and ratified.

(8) Council Member McCanlffiack stated that she wanted to make sure that when items come up once every two years (such as this one) that the new Council Members are given a little more information than what was included in the staff report, such as why some of the commissions (such as the Plamling Commission) are not listed in the resolution, as it is important for them to understand this. She stated that she had received answers to her questions; however, she wanted to mention it for next time. Council Member McCanlffiack made a motion, seconded by Council Member Estrada, that said resolution be adopted. Resolution No. 2000-355 was adopted by the following vote: Ayes: Council Members Estrada, Lien, McGinnis, Schnetz, Suarez, Anderson, McCanlffiack. Nays: None. Absent: None. 11 12/18/2000 RES. 2000-356 - RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AWARDING A CONTRACT TO AVILA CONSTRUCTION, INC. FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A RAISED MEDIAN, HANDICAP RAMPS, AND STRIPING AT 21ST STREET AND SAN GABRIEL STREET. (10) Council Member Lien inquired as to when construction would begin on this project and the expected date of completion. Ray Casey, City Engineer, advised that construction was expected to begin soon after the first of the year, and it would take approximately 30-45 days to complete the work. Council Member Lien made a motion, seconded by Council Member McCammack, that said resolution be adopted. Resolution No. 2000-356 was adopted by the following vote: Ayes: Council Members Estrada, Lien, McGinnis, Schnetz, Suarez. Anderson, McCammack. Nays: None. Absent: None. RES. 2000-357 - RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AWARDING A CONTRACT TO AVILA CONSTRUCTION, INC. FOR STREET IMPROVEMENTS ON ART TOWNSEND DRIVE AND OTTO GERICKE DRIVE AT THE SAN BERNARDINO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. (11) Council Member Schnetz expressed concern that the City is awarding a contract for the extension of streets located on Inland Valley Development Agency (lVDA) portions of the property, which appear to go right through Tech Park, and he did not see any indication that Hillwood had a chance to look at this project proposal. Mayor Valles indicated that this project had been approved at the IVDA meeting the previous Thursday. Ray Casey, City Engineer, advised that HilIwood had, in fact, reviewed the plans and did not have any objections--they indicated they could make it work. Council Member Schnetz made a motion, seconded by Council Member Estrada, that said resolution be adopted. 12 12/18/2000 Resolution No. 2000-357 was adopted by the following vote: Ayes: Council Members Estrada, Lien, McGinnis, Schnetz, Suarez, Anderson, McCarnmack. Nays: None. Absent: None. RES. 2000-358 - RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AWARDING A CONTRACT TO BOND BLACKTOP, INC. FOR SLURRY SEALING OF VARIOUS STREETS, PHASE X, PER PLAN NO. 10126. (12) Council Member McCarnmack noted that in reviewing the map she realized that this is a project that has been underway in the City for the past five years. However, she felt she must voice her concerns that money is being spent on some streets that will not be helped by slurry seal. She stated that she had discussed this with the City Administrator and the Water Department relative to streets that are currently under repair and should be removed from the slurry seal project, and she wanted to be sure that we are double checking this and not putting good money after bad. City Engineer Ray Casey advised that on this particular project the City is doing something they haven't done before--they have added a removal and replacement element to the contract. The intent is to remove those specific locations where there is pavement failure and significant cracking before we do the slurry seal. Council Member McCammack requested that she and Mr. Casey drive some of these streets prior to the work beginning in January. Mayor Valles advised that slurry seal has been a "delicate" issue for the City to deal with, as it should be used to maintain surface streets in good repair. Unfortunately, so many of the streets in the city are in such disrepair that slurry sealing is just like painting over the problem without really correcting it. She stated she was pleased that staff is looking to correct the problem at the root prior to slurry sealing. Council Member Estrada made a motion, seconded by Council Member McGinnis, that said resolution be adopted. Resolution No. 2000-358 was adopted by the following vote: Ayes: Council Members Estrada, Lien, McGinnis, Schuetz, Suarez, Anderson, McCarnmack. . Nays: None. Absent: None. 13 12/18/2000 RES. 2000-359 - RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN AGREEMENT WITH LUDWIG ENGINEERING FOR CIVIL ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR PAVEMENT WIDENING AND REHABILITATION AT 40TH STREET BETWEEN ACRE LANE AND WATERMAN AVENUE. (14) Council Member Anderson inquired as to how much money will be left in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) V2-Cent Sales Tax Fund after these expenditures. City Administrator Wilson stated he did not know the amount offhand, but he would get the information for her. Council Member Schnetz made a motion, seconded by Council Member Lien, that said resolution be adopted. Resolution No. 2000-359 was adopted by the following vote: Ayes: Council Members Estrada, Lien, McGinnis, Schnetz, Suarez, Anderson, McCammack. Nays: None. Absent: None. CITY ATTORNEY PENMAN EXCUSED At 10:04 a.m., City Attorney Penman left the Council meeting and was replaced by Senior Assistant City Attorney Carlyle. PUBLIC HEARING - UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 29 - LOCATED ALONG PORTIONS OF 3RD STREET & VIADUCT BOULEVARD - BETWEEN "K" STREET & 2ND STREET (28) William Woolard, Interim Director of Development Services, submitted a staff report dated November 29, 2000, regarding the formation of Underground Utility District No. 29. Mr. Woolard noted that the Underground Utility Committee has recommended establishment of this district. He advised that the funding will come from Rule 20A Funds, which are mandated by the Public Utilities Commission. Said funds are set aside by the various power companies for the purpose of under grounding and allocated amlually for use by the various cities and counties within a power company's service area. Mayor Valles opened the hearing. No public comments were received. 14 12/18/2000 RES. 2000-360 - RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO CREATING UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 29, LOCATED ALONG PORTIONS OF 3RD STREET AND VIADUCT BOULEVARD BETWEEN "K" STREET AND 2ND STREET IN THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO. (28) Council Member McGinnis made a motion, seconded by Council Member Schnetz, that the public hearing relative to the formation of Underground Utility District No. 29 be closed, and protests, if any, be overruled; and that said resolution be adopted. The motion carried and Resolution No. 2000-360 was adopted by the following vote: Ayes: Council Members Estrada, Lien, McGinnis, Schnetz, Suarez, Anderson, McCammack. Nays: None. Absent: None. RES. 2000-361 - RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO APPROVING SERVICES AGREEMENTS WITH WILLDAN, CALTROP ENGINEERING CORPORATION, AND LIM AND NASCIMENTO ENGINEERING CORPORATION FOR CONSULTANT INSPECTION SERVICES FOR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS (CIP). (15) RES. 2000-362 - RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO APPROVING SERVICES AGREEMENTS WITH NOLTE ASSOCIATES, INC., NORRIS-REPKE, INC., AND HERNANDEZ, KROONE AND ASSOCIATES FOR PROVISION OF CONSTRUCTION SURVEY SERVICES. (16) Council Member McCammack stated that these items were very similar to another action taken by the Council to augment the City's engineering/design services for the CIP projects. She wanted to be sure that staff had not lost focus on the reorganization effort of the Development Services Department counter. She expressed concern that the City needs to streamline even further the counter work performed by plan checkers, etc., for those people coming in with the smaller projects. She noted that these projects sometimes get bogged down by the larger projects, and this needs to be addressed in the very near future. Mrs. McCammack noted that this will be the third sum of $90,000 that is being set aside for augmenting staff by outside contractors for the CIP. She inquired whether there would be more such requests; and more specifically, whether there would be similar requests/discussions relative to the small projects as well. 15 12/18/2000 Ray Casey, City Engineer, advised that there have been discussions relative to plan check in terms of the same kind of support mechanism. Also, at staff level they have discussed additional support for the smaller projects. Council Member Estrada asked how this will affect the service to the customer and the projects that are coming up--has there been any kind of a study as to what effect this action will have in terms of the support mechanism that is being recommended. Mr. Casey stated that there has been a study specifically looking at the City's professional staff in comparison with cities of similar size and similar activity, and that was the basis for making the recommendations. Council Member Estrada questioned how this affects the customer as to expediency and whether the customer gets the same kind of attention as the larger projects. William Woolard, Interim Director of Development Services, pointed out that this is looking at two different scenarios--one is the Capital Improvement Program, which Agenda Item Nos. 15 and 16 relate to, and approval of Agenda Item Nos. 15 and 16 will expedite those projects relating to the infrastructure. The other question, relative to people coming to the counter and getting service for their projects, is more of a Development Services issue that affects primarily Building and Planning rather than Engineering. He noted that these two actions would not make too much difference in freeing up people to handle other smaller projects. Council Member Lien pointed out that the more Capital Improvement Projects that we do, the more reimbursement we get for our costs for the engineering and administrative aspects of it; so in effect, the money that we spend on consultants to help us accomplish more of these projects is reimbursed as we expedite the projects. SENIOR ASSISTANT CITY ATTORNEY CARLYLE EXCUSED At 10:06 a.m., Senior Assistant City Attorney Carlyle left the Council meeting and was replaced by City Attorney Penman. Council Member Anderson noted that Agenda Item Nos. 15 and 16 were different in the fact that one is asking for consultants for inspection services and the other for survey services. However, she expressed displeasure that the staff reports had almost identical verbiage, and stated that she did not want staff to shortcut information by regurgitating background information from one staff report to another. Council Member Anderson made a motion, seconded by Council Member McGinnis, that said resolutions be adopted. 16 12/18/2000 Resolution Nos. 2000-361 and 2000-362 were adopted by the following vote: Ayes: Council Members Estrada, Lien, McGinnis, Schnetz, Suarez, Anderson, McCammack. Nays: None. Absent: None. APPROVE - CHANGE ORDER NO. TWO - CONTRACT WITH DAVID T. WASDEN, INC. - STORM DRAIN IMPROVEMENTS - "E" STREET, FROM 4TH STREET TO 5TH STREET - PAVEMENT REHABILITATION, FROM 4TH STREET TO 6TH STREET (17) William Woolard, Interim Director of Development Services, submitted a staff report dated December 6, 2000, regarding Change Order No. Two to the contract with David T. Wasden, Inc., for storm drain improvements and pavement rehabilitation. Council Member Anderson asked what percentage of the project was now completed. City Engineer Casey indicated that it was 100 percent complete. Council Member Anderson made a motion, seconded by Council Member McGinnis, and unanimously carried, that the Mayor and Common Council approve Contract Change Order No. Two to the contract with David T. Wasden, Inc. for storm drain improvements in "E" Street from 4th Street to 5th Street, and pavement rehabilitation from 4th Street to 6th Street and authorize the Purchasing Manager to increase Purchase Order 994408 by an amount equal to $26,493.70 to cover the cost of this change order. RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO APPROVING THE DESTRUCTION OF FIXED ASSET RECORDS BY THE DIRECTOR OF FINANCE. (Discussed later in the meeting - page 23) (19) Council Member Anderson made a motion, seconded by Council Member McGinnis, that said resolution be adopted. (Note: There was no vote taken.) Susan Rogers, a local citizen, questioned what records were going to be destroyed and why. City Attorney Penman advised that his office had not signed off on this item as he was uncertain whether the fixed asset records had been deleted per Council action on September 18. He stated that he assumed they had been deleted; however, the staff report says the Director of Finance is still recommending they be destroyed. City Administrator Wilson clarified the information in the staff report, noting that the action being requested now is to destroy the records, and the justification for 17 12/18/2000 the destruction is that the fixed assets specified in the exhibit are only computer generated listings of additions and deletions made to the City's fixed asset database. City Attorney Penman noted that the Government Code requires the City Attorney's approval before these records can be destroyed.
