PUBLIC STATEMENTS
Mr. Roy Weygand, Executive Director of the Kern County
Taxpayers Association, 1415 18th Street, spoke regarding the
Congestion Management Program. He stated the Association is in
support of the Plan, as modified by City and County staff;
however, it would like the Council to consider the following
three other points: (1) There is no appeal process in this
Program; (2) The Program, as drafted, does not contain any
funding guidance to be used to correct any of the deficiencies in
these programs; and (3) The establishment of another agency that
enters into the area of land use planning.
Ms. Barbara DonCarlos, representing the Building
Industry Association of Kern County, spoke regarding the
Congestion Management Program. She stated the BIA is in support
of the recommendations in the staff report. She requested that
Council consider the changes which will be presented by a
representative from Golden Empire Transit. She also requested,
with regard to the transit standards, that there would be a
condition in which any currently existing services which are
below the standard set by this Congestion Management Program
would be grandfathered in. Additionally, there would be no
requirement that they would be required to be brought up to that
standard. She recommended, however, that they would not be
allowed to degrade below their current level.

REPORTS
Councilmember DeMond, Chairperson of the Legislative
and Litigation Committee, read Report No. 6-91 regarding
Bakersfield Municipal Airport Overflights, as follows:
On July 31, 1991, the City Council referred
to the Legislative and Litigation Committee
the issue of residential area overflights
from air traffic generated by the Bakersfield
Municipal Airport. The Committee met with
Mr. David Steiber and Greenfield School
District Superintendent Don Williams to
receive input, reviewed staff reports and
recommendations, and analyzed historical
data. Issues of primary concern focussed on
noise and safety. Safety and quiet flight
measures which have already been initiated as
well as possibilities for future mitigations
were explored during the Committee's review.
The Legislative and Litigation Committee
feels that the community would be well served
with the establishment of an Airport Citizens
Committee. A small committee of no more than
five individuals (residents and school
officials) would be helpful in keeping the
Bakersfield Airpark Advisory Committee and
City management informed as to concerns and
needs of the area. The Committee also feels
that the City should continue its "Fly
Friendly" program, together with publishing
of page inserts for airport guides. As a
further educational effort to encourage
better understanding of the Airport's purpose
and mission, it is recommended that student
and adult awareness tours be conducted as
well as periodic Airport "open houses."
Therefore, the Legislative and Litigation
Committee recommends that Council direct the
Public Works Director to establish a five-
member Airport Citizens Committee, with the
Airport Manager functioning as an ex-officio
member; the City continue its "Fly Friendly"
program; publish page inserts for airport
guides; and that, periodically, educational
programs such as tours and open houses be
conducted at the Airport. Further, it is
recommended that staff prepare a report
outlining efforts taken and recommendations
made in response to concerns of area
residents and forward the report to both Mr.
Steiber and Superintendent Williams.
The Committee requests that the City Council
accept this report and implement its
recommendations.
Upon a motion by Councilmember DeMond, Legislative and
Litigation Committee Report No. 6-91 was accepted.
Upon a motion by Councilmember DeMond, the
recommendations of Legislative and Litigation Committee Report
No. 6-91 were implemented.

procedure) was done at her express request and not something that
that department pulled out of the air in order to "buy"

Bakersfield, California, October 23, 1991 - Page 15
Approval of Consultant's Agreement No. 91-229
with Dr. Ernest Solano, MSW, Phd., to provide
psychological services for the Police
Department.
City Attorney Lunardini made a brief statement
regarding the reason the contract is up for consideration. He
also advised that the following sentence should be added to
Paragraph 16 on page 4: "Unless sooner terminated, pursuant to
the provisions set forth below, this Agreement shall last for a
term of two years and shall expire on October 31, 1993".
Upon a motion by Councilmember DeMond, Consultant's
Agreement No. 91-229 was approved, and the Mayor was authorized
to execute the Agreement.
Approval of Consultant's Agreement No. 91-230
with John Carollo Engineers to perform a
Location/Service Area Study for a future
wastewater treatment plant and collection
system southwest of Bakersfield.
For the record, Councilmember Brunni asked: "Does this
automatically entitle this same contractor to perform other
related services at a later date?"
Assistant Public Works Director Kloepper responded:
"That does not guarantee that they would get subsequent
contracts. They would certainly be a leading contender, I would
think, for subsequent work, but it would be another RFP process
or stage two of this process of siting a plant."
Upon a motion by Councilmember Brunni, Consultant's
Agreement No. 91-230 was approved, and the Mayor was authorized
to execute the Agreement.

Councilmember DeMond commented that people are calling
her and leaving messages on her answering machines. The calls
cannot be returned because the name or address cannot be
understood, and they do not leave a phone number. She said she
would be delighted to return the calls if she could understand
who she is supposed to call.
Councilmember McDermott suggested that the appointment
of a Councilmember to the Task Force To Study Development Impacts
On School Districts be placed on the next Council meeting Agenda.
