Frank Mankin, Assistant Chief of Police, stated that two corrections relative to
the amount of the purchase order needed to be made to the resolution-that in
Section 2, the Director of Finance is authorized and directed to issue a purchase
order for an amount of $1,949,560 for FY 2008/09 and $2,249,200 for FY

$2,501,760 for FY 2009/10. He advised that the City Attorney's office
concurred with these changes.
Assistant Chief Mankin advised that originally four locations were selected for
the red light cameras, and there has been a reduction in the number of accidents
over the period of time that these cameras have been in place. He advised that
further analysis had been done to see what kind of traffic situations exist
throughout the city and to examine motor safety issues.
Assistant Chief Mankin stated that the Federal Highway Administration concept
was used so that they are not only trying to get people to slow down, but they
are hoping that some education will occur in that forum. He advised that the
average daily traffic counts were taken into consideration by Traffic
Engineering, and the number of accidents-injuries and fatalities-caused by red
light violations during the time frame January 1, 2005, through December 31,
2007, was also examined. Then, a survey of red light violations was conducted
to determine the intersection's ability to be a traffic reminder and educational
tool for the volume of traffic traveling through these intersections.
He stated that the Police Department has now provided the Council with seven
additional intersections for their consideration; and should they decide to adopt
those, the costs were also contained in the report. He pointed out that if the
Council decides to expand the program the Police Department would need to
hire one additional police officer and one additional community service officer
supervisor-a civilian position-to be effective January 1, 2009, to oversee the
program, as they anticipate an increased volume of violations with the addition
of several more intersections.
Council Member/Commissioner Johnson stated that he would like to have
information regarding the type of accidents that occurred before and after the
red light cameras were placed by Nestor-were there more T-bone accidents or
more rear-end accidents prior to the cameras versus the type and number of
accidents after installation of the cameras.
Council Member/Commissioner Brinker stated that his concern was that staff
was looking at putting in these cameras as a way of solving a problem without
maybe addressing what the underlying issues really are.

"
He stated that as people change their driving patterns to try and avoid these
lights, it may actually create other traffic problems in other areas, and so he
would like staff to maybe consider looking at some of these intersections for
other types of measures as opposed to going to these cameras as the first resort
as the way to reduce the number of accidents.
Jay Lindberg, 6340 Orange Knoll, San Bernardino, CA, stated that he thought
these cameras were just a source of money for the City.
Council Member/Commissioner McCammack made a motion, seconded by
Council Member/Commissioner Estrada, that the hearing be closed; that said
resolution, as amended, be adopted; that the Mayor and Common Council
authorize the addition of the following positions in the Traffic Bureau (Account
No. 001-217) for FY 2008/09: one (I) Police Officer ($79,274 - 6 mos.) and
one (1) Community Service Officer Supervisor ($37,662 - 6 mos.); that the
Director of Human Resources be directed to update Resolution No. 97-244
(position control) as part of adopting the FY 2008/09 General Fund budget to
reflect this particular action; and that the Finance Director be authorized to
adjust the FY 2008/09 court fines revenues budget as needed.

34. RES. 2008-136 - Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council mAking
certain Findings and Determinations pursuant to Government Code Section
65402 with regard to General Plan Conformity for a proposed elementary
school site (Wilson IT Elementary School). (Continued from April 7, 2008)
The City Attorney's office declared a conflict on this item because City
Attorney Penman's wife is a member of the school board. Special Counsel Sabo
assumed the duties of legal counsel.
Terri Rahhal, Deputy Director/City Planner, stated that there was one thing that
needed to be taken into consideration when the Wilson II Elementary School
goes forward and is considered by the school board; and that is, if the Council
makes a fmding of conformity with the City's General Plan, the project can be
approved with a simple majority vote of the board. However, if the Council has
not found the project to be in conformity with the City's General Plan, the
school board would need a super majority to pass the project.
16
04/21/2008
Ms. Rahhal advised that the new information cited in the resolution before the
Council at this time was based on the presentation made by the school district,
the public testimony, the extensive discnssion, and the vote that was taken by
the Council at the last meeting on April 7, which directed staff to come back
with a resolution finding the project in conformity with the City's General Plan.
In other words, the finding of conformity was based on the deliberation of the
Council that was voted on at the last meeting, based on the evidence presented
at that meeting.
Biron Bauer, 765 N. Mountain View Avenue, San Bernardino, CA, questioned
the new findings, stating that they were very generic.
Council Member/Commissioner Brinker made a motion, seconded by Council
Member/Commissioner Kelley, that said resolution be adopted.

allocation.
Responding to inquiries from the Council, Mr. Marzullo advised that as of now
all the monies had been allocated up to the amount of the grant. However, if
the Council so desired they could change the allocations (although letters
advising of the recommended amounts had gone out to all applicants), or they
could wait until mid-year to determine if there were any unspent funds. It was
also noted that funds still available from program income and any leftover
money had been "swept" into the total fund that was allocated.
Council Member/Commissioner Johnson made a motion, seconded by Council
Member/Commissioner Estrada, that said resolution be adopted, with the
