AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AND CAMPBELL DELONG RESOURCES,
INC., BY THE MAYOR OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO ON
BEHALF OF SAID CITY. (Continued from June 19, 1995)
(19)
Discussion ensued regarding the merits of paying a company
$23,150 to develop a landlord manual and training program for the
Rental Housing Inspection Program, when the City already has a
source of information and direction from the program administered
by Mesa, Arizona.
Peggy Ducey, Assistant to the City Administrator, answered
questions regarding the City's Rental Housing Inspection Program
and explained that Mesa, Arizona, utilizes a criminal background
check conducted through a credit company and a lease addendum,
neither of which can be used by the City of San Bernardino. Also,
their program is not easily transferrable to California due to the
significant differences in landlord-tenant laws.
Ms. Ducey stated that many jurisdictions are looking to
develop rental housing inspection programs, yet no comprehensive
manual has been developed in California. By providing our manual
to other entities for a fee, the potential exists to recoup some of
the costs of its development.

David Fahrion, Corporate Vice President of CR&R, Inc., P.O.
Box 125, Stanton, CA, opposed awarding the contract to Taormina
Industries, Inc., stating that CR&R could perform the commingled
recyclables processing for approximately $600,000 less than
Taormina, and requested that the Council direct staff to obtain up-
to-date figures from both Taormina and CR&R to ensure the integrity
of the bidding process.
It was noted that the Agreement stated that the $2.00 per ton
host fee established for purposes of the Agreement between Taormina
Industries, Inc. and the City of San Bernardino could only be
modified by approval of the Director of Public Services. However,
it was determined that modification should only be approved by the
Mayor and Common Council.

Council Member Hernandez, that said resolution be adopted; and that
the Agreement between the City of San Bernardino and Taormina
Industries, Inc. be amended as follows: Page 6, Item 17, last line

1005; 1007; and Sewer Lift Station Maintenance District No. 963.
Roger Hardgrave, Director of Public Works/Engineering,
submitted a memorandum dated July 5, 1995, confirming that Agenda
Item Nos. 2A, 2B, 2C, 2E, 2F, 2G, 2H, and 21 for the Mayor and
Common Council meeting of June 26, 1995, were in fact calculated
correctly and legally defensible. Therefore, it is recommended
that the assessment rolls for Assessment District Nos. 951, 952,
956, 963, 968, 991, 1005, and 1007 be confirmed.
Director Hardgrave submitted a Staff Report dated July 5,
1995, stating that Agenda Item No. 2D for the Mayor and Common
Council meeting of June 26, 1995, had been calculated by a method
not clearly supported by the documents that established the
assessment district. Therefore, in order to avoid the possibility
of legal challenge, the assessment roll had been recalculated.
This resulted in a decrease in the total assessment. A new
resolution had been prepared using the new calculations, but had
not yet been approved by the City Attorney's Office.
