CONSENT CALENDAR
Resolutions
Item 12c. Amendment No. 1 to Resolution No. 304-04 Adoptinc the McDonald Planned Sewer Area to
Chance the Timeline for Pavment of Connection Fees. In December 2004, the McDonald Planned Sewer
Area was adopted via Resolution 304-04. That resolution sets forth an amount due from property owners
based on the calendar year in which connection to the new sewer line takes place, which increases by three
percent per calendar year. Due to a two-year delay in the construction of the sewer line, the dates need to
be updated.
Item 12d. Resolutions Adoptinc Council Policy recardinc Boards and Commissions. The first resolution
sets forth that applications can be submitted only in person, by mail, or by facsimile, and only received by
the City Clerk. All applicants whose submittals are not timely received will be sent a letter from the City
Clerk informing them that their application was not timely received and will not be considered. This process
will apply to all applications, regardless of whether the appointment is ward-based or non-ward-based.
The second resolution is a new policy which streamlines the voting procedure for non-ward-based
appointments. The voting will still be done by ballot. Each Council member will vote for one nominee. The
winner will be the nominee who receives the most votes cast. If there is more than one opening, new
ballots will be handed out with the name of the previous winner obliterated. When all votes are cast and all
vacancies filled, the Vice Mayor will make a motion to appoint all of the winning nominees.

California, Inc. will pay for all costs associated with the preparation of the EIR, which consists of $155,325

Item 12s. Aareement with the Bakersfield Redevelocment Aaency for a $785.000 Eauicment Fund Loan
for the Acauisition of Procerty located at 1400 Q Street within the Southeast Redevelocment Proiect Area.
In April, 2003, the Agency obtained a $1.75 million dollar CalHFA HELP application to assist with affordable
housing development costs for a 160-unit multi-family affordable housing development as a part of the
Millcreek South, mixed use development. On October 4, 2004, the Agency approved the Resolution of
Necessity authorizing the acquisition of property located at 1400 "Q" Street. On April 5, 2006, the City
Council agreed to loan the Agency $785,000 at 4% simple interest from the Equipment Fund to pay the
balance required for settlement of the case entitled Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency vs H.W. Lakeshore
Pines Joint Venture. These funds are to be repaid with future tax increment funds generated from the
Millcreek South, mixed use development project. This is the final action required for the acquisition of this
property.
Item 12u. Aareement with Citvaate Associates. LLC to Precare a Future Fire Station Analysis in the
amount of $42,620. The purpose of the analysis is to develop recommendations regarding potential future
fire station locations for planned and developing areas within the Metropolitan General Plan Area. The
analysis will take into consideration the current station locations, response practices and fire protection
standards within metropolitan Bakersfield. Two proposals were received. Staff evaluated the proposals
and finds the proposal submitted by Citygate Associates, LLC to be most responsive to the needs of the
City. CityGate Associates, LLC has extensive local government experience with comparable studies for
such cities as San Jose, Vacaville, Palm Springs, and Minneapolis, and is comprised of professionals
representing a full range of municipal functions such as fire, GIS, finance and land use planning. In
addition, CityGate Associates, LLC, utilizes the same Geographic Information System (GIS) and planning
tools as the City; thus reducing data collection and analysis time, and ultimately the cost to the City.
Item 12v. Memorandum of Understandina with Kern County for Joint Effort to Develop a Metropolitan Area
Refuse Transfer Station. Based on the results of a March 7, 2005 meeting of the Ad Hoc Committee of the
Kern County Solid Waste Advisory Committee, an M.O.U. is the appropriate instrument for both jurisdictions
to move forward with this project. One important element is that both staffs seek grant funding, where
possible. City staff has applied for federal Congestion Mitigation/Air Quality grant funds, in both the 2005
and 2006 grant cycles, on behalf of the City and County. This M.O.U. has been approved by the Board of
Supervisors.
Bids
Item 12x. Award Contract to Gladdina McBean for the Purchase of Sewer Pice for the Brundaae Lane
Sewer Line Reclacement Project (Union Avenue to Mt. Vernon Avenue) in the amount of $1.473,400. The
project encompasses Brundage Lane between "L" Street and Mt. Vernon Avenue, and on "L" Street
between Brundage Lane and California Avenue. The section between Union and Mt. Vernon Avenues
requires significant quantities of large diameter sewer pipe, which will take approximately six months to
manufacture. This large pipe was bid separately from the construction contract so that the pipe will be
available at the time of construction. The smaller diameter pipe will be bid as part of the construction
project. Three acceptable bids were received. Staff recommends award to Gladding McBean.
Item 12z. Award Contract to Stewart Electric for Decorative Bollards for the Chester Avenue Streetscace
croiect in the amount of $47,673. Three acceptable bids were received. Staff recommends award to
Stewart Electric.
Item12bb. Award Contract to Bakersfield Truck Center for Two Replacement Three-Axle Dump Trucks with
Demolition Bodies for the Streets Division in the amount of $237.358. Two acceptable bids were received.
Staff recommends award to Bakersfield Truck Center. Funds for the purchase are in the FY 2005-06
budget.

Miscellaneous
Item 12ff. Aoorooriate and Transfer $500.000 General Fund Balance to the Caoitallmorovement Budaet
within the Caoital Outlav Fund for the Street Preventative Maintenance Procram. This is the third request to
increase funding for the street preventative maintenance program this fiscal year. At the December 14,
2005 meeting, Council appropriated an additional $570,000, and March 22, 2006, Council appropriated an
additional $500,000. Because several factors, such as weather, can impact the amount spent for street
maintenance, staff is requesting additional funding in phases, rather than all at once.
Item 12;;. Metrooolitan Medical Resoonse Svstem IMMRS) FY 2005 Grant in the amount of $220.764.
These grant awards provide major funding to further enhance and maintain preparedness for local response
to high-casualty events. Part of the grant award will be allocated towards the Fire Department's grant-
funded Administrative Captain. The remainder will be used for training, plan updates, pharmaceuticals and
equipment.
HEARINGS
Item 14a. Public Hearino to Resolution Adootina the 2005-06 Reaional Transoortation Facilities List and
Fee Schedule. The Regional Transportation Facilities List includes those projects in the Metropolitan
Bakersfield General Plan area which are included in the adopted Capital Improvement Plan annually
updated by the City Council. Council must also adopt the Transportation Impact Fee Schedule annually.
Staff has received a request from CalTrans to add a signal at Taft Highway and Akers Road to the 2005-
2026 Metropolitan Bakersfield Regional Transportation Impact Fee Facilities List. Since the additional cost
of the CalTrans-requested project is offset by savings is other projects, staff is recommending that the
Facilities List be revised, as shown on the attachment to the administrative report. Since there were
offsetting cost savings in other projects, the total dollar amount of the Facilities List does not change and
there is no change in the amount of the fee, except for the Construction Cost Index increase.
This update includes a 5.66% cost of living increase required by the City's ordinance. The last time the
costs were updated, the fees and costs were brought current to 2004, so the Construction Cost Index from
2004 to 2005 was applied to the list and fee schedule.
REPORTS
Item 15a. Leaislative and Litiaation Committee Reoort reaardinc Elimination of the Interaovernmental
Relations Committee. On February 14, 2006, the Legislative and Litigation Committee met to determine the
future of the Intergovernmental Relations Committee (IGRC). Councilmember Irma Carson referred this
item to decide if the IGRC should be eliminated and where its activities would be assigned.
Originally, the IGRC was designed as a forum to discuss policy items of interest between the City and
County. However, in 2002, the City and County began having joint public meetings on a regular basis,
which had the effect of taking much of the workload away from the IGRC. The IGRC meets only twice a
year prior to the Joint Meeting, and its only role is to determine what items go on the Joint Meeting agenda
and previewing staff reports for that meeting.
With the creation of the Safe Neighborhoods and Community Relations Committee as a standing committee
of the Council, City staff and the City Attorney recommend that the IGRC be eliminated to maintain balance
in the number of committee assignments for each Council member. The Committee voted to remove the
activities of IGRC from any standing committee. The draft agenda for the Joint Meeting could be developed
by staff with input by the City Council prior to the meeting, and staff reports could be prepared like the
regular City Council agenda without input from a committee in advance. Council would then consider the
draft agenda under New Business and give feedback to staff.

Item 15b. Presentation of the FY 2006-07 Procosed Budget. The City Manager's Office will provide a
detailed overview of the FY 2006-07 proposed budget for the Operating, Capital Improvement, and
Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency.
DEFERRED BUSINESS
Item 16a. Resolution in Succor! of a Downtown Location for the Procosed Federal Courthouse. Since
2003, numerous letters from the City and local legislators were sent to the United States General Services
Administration (GSA) informing them of the City's desire and intent to locate the Federal Courthouse
downtown. This resolution reaffirms this position, and will be provided to legislators to assist in their efforts
to lobby the GSA to reconsider the City's and their constituents' desire to see the Federal Courthouse
located downtown.

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Council determination.
BACKGROUND:
Currently there is one appointment to the Historic Preservation Commission due to the expiration of term
of Michael Kephart, whose term expired March 30, 2006. The news release for this recruitment was
posted February 16, and March 28, 2006.

SUBJECT: Amendment No. 1 to Resolution No. 304-04 Adopting the McDonald Planned Sewer Area
to Adjust Time Schedule Which is Necessary Due to Delay in Construction of the Project
(Ward 1).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Amendment to Resolution.
BACKGROUND: In December 2004, the McDonald Planned Sewer Area was adopted via Resolution
304-04. That resolution included Exhibit B which set forth the amount due from property owners based on
the calendar year in which the property owner chose to connect to the new sewer line. The first year in
that table was set as 2005, and the amount increased by three percent per calendar year. However,
construction of the project was delayed. So property owners have not yet been able to connect to the
sewer line.
At their April 26, 2006 meeting, the City Council did award a construction contract for the project.
Construction of the project should now be completed in early calendar 2007. The property owners will
then be able to start connecting to the new sewer line in that year.
Amendment No. 1 to Resolution No. 304-04 adjusts the dates in Exhibit B to reflect the correct first
calendar year in which the property owners will be able to connect to the new sewer line and the payment
that will be due should owners select to connect in later years.

SUBJECT: Appointments to City Boards and Commissions (All Wards)
1. Resolution Adopting a City Council Policy Regarding Applications to Fill Vacancies
on All City Boards and Commissions.
2. A Resolution Adopting a City Council Policy Regarding Non-Ward-Based
Appointments to City Boards and Commissions
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of Resolutions.
BACKGROUND:
1. Over the years, there have been many openings on various City boards and commiSSions.
However, the City Council has never adopted a process regarding the submission of applications for those
openings. Consequently, there was confusion as to how applications should be submitted and whether
applications submitted after the stated deadline were to be considered at all. This resolution sets forth that
applications can be submitted only in person, by mail or by facsimile. No other forms of submittal will be
accepted. All applications must be submitted to the City Clerk. Applications submitted in person or by
mail will be date- and time-stamped by the City Clerk. Facsimiles will be deemed received based upon the
date on the header when they exit the facsimile machine in the City Clerk's office. Applications which are
not received by 5 p.m. on the last day for submission will not be considered. All applicants whose
submittals are not timely received will be sent a letter from the City Clerk informing them that their
application was not timely received and will not be considered. This process will apply to all applications,
regardless of whether the appointment is ward-based or non-ward-based.
2. Back in 1999, the City Council asked the City Attorney to prepare a resolution setting forth a voting
procedure to make appointments to the various boards and commissions. The policy was to apply to all
vacancies except those based upon ward appointments. Recently, the policy has been revisited and the
City Attorney and the City Clerk have determined that it was cumbersome and difficult to follow. As a
result, a new policy has been drafted which streamlines the voting procedure for non-ward-based
appointments.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
This new policy sets forth that all applicants whose applications are timely received will be considered
nominees for the vacancy(ies). Thus, time is saved by eliminating the need for nominations at the council
meeting. The voting will still be done by ballot. The ballot will contain the names of all nominees. Each
council member will vote for one nominee. The winner will be the nominee who received the most votes
cast. If there is more than one opening available, new ballots will be handed out with the name of the
previous winner obliterated. The council will vote from among the remaining nominees. The nominee
receiving the most votes cast will be chosen for that second opening and so on. When all votes are cast
and all vacancies filled on a particular board or commission, the vice-mayor will make a motion to appoint
all of the winning nominees to the respective vacancies.

SUBJECT: Agreement with the Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency for a $785,000 Equipment Fund
Loan for the Acquisition of Property located at 1400 Q Street within the So theast
Redevelopment Project Area. (WARD 2)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
BACKGROUND:
The Redevelopment Agency adopted the Southeast Bakersfield Redevelopment Project Area and
redevelopment plan in 1999. In accordance with this plan, the Agency is authorized to establish debt,
acquire real property and manage property under its ownership and control.
In April, 2003 the Agency obtained a $1.75 million dollar CalHFA HELP application to assist with
affordable housing development costs for a 160 unit multi-family affordable housing development as a part
of the Millcreek South, mixed use development. This project is also proposed to assist in the remediation
of slum and blight and create new commercial and retail opportunities in the area.
On October 4, 2004, the Agency approved the Resolution of Necessity authorizing the acquisition of
property located at 1400 "Q" Street. The CalHFA funds were deposited with the court and the Agency
subsequently obtained possession of the property.
On April 5, 2006, the City Council agreed to loan the Agency $785,000 at 4% simple interest from the
Equipment Fund to pay the balance required for settlement of the case entitled Bakersfield
Redevelopment Agency vs H.W. Lakeshore Pines Joint Venture. These funds are to be repaid with future
tax increment funds generated from the Millcreek South, mixed use development project in the Southeast
Redevelopment Project Area in accordance with exhibit A of the agreement.
This is the final action required for the acquisition of this property.

approximately 1300 feet south of McKee Road on the east side Akers Road for a future park

RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of agreement.
BACKGROUND:
Cat Harbor Properties, LLC; a California limited liability company; Lantz Family L.P., a California limited
partnership; Sam-Sum Ventures, LLC, a California limited liability company; and Wible Investors II, LLC, a
California limited liability company (Developers) are dedicating .76 acres in accordance with Bakersfield

.87 acres. The balance of the park site has been assembled by three previous park land dedications.
This property represents the second to last acquisition necessary to assemble the park site. The purchase
price of $30,450 represents the property's fair market value as determined by an appraisal prepared by
Michael C. Burger, MAl, an independent fee appraiser.

1. Agreement with Citygate Associates, LLC, for $42,620 to prepare future fire station
location analysis.
2. Appropriate $42,620 General Fund Balance to the Fire Department Capital Improvement
Budget.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of agreement and appropriation.
BACKGROUND: Request for Proposals were sent to five (5) consultants for providing future fire station
location analysis. The purpose of the analysis is to develop recommendations regarding potential future
fire station locations for planned and developing areas within the Metropolitan General Plan Area. The
analysis will take into consideration the current station locations, response practices and fire protection
standards within metropolitan Bakersfield.
Two (2) proposals were received in response to solicitation. Staff evaluated the proposals and finds the
proposal submitted by Citygate Associates, LLC to be most responsive to the needs of the City. CityGate
Associates, LLC has extensive local government experience with comparable studies for such cities as
San Jose, Vacaville, Palm Springs, and Minneapolis. The CityGate project team is multi-disciplined and is
comprised of professionals representing a full range of municipal functions such as fire, GIS, finance and
land use planning. In addition, CityGate Associates, LLC, utilizes the same Geographic Information
System (GIS) and planning tools as the City of Bakersfield, thus reducing data collection and analysis time
and ultimately the cost to the City.

SUBJECT: Memorandum of Understanding with the

CITY ATTORNEY
CITY MANAGER
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Memorandum of Understanding.
BACKGROUND: On February 28, 2005, City and County staff made a joint presentation on the status of
the Metro Transfer Station to the Joint Meeting of the Kern County Board of Supervisors and the
Bakersfield City Council. There was a consensus that a Metro Transfer Station Project would be
strengthened if the City and County jointly move forward from this point, seeking grant funding where
possible. City staff has applied for federal Congestion Mitigation/Air Quality grant funds for a transfer
station project, in both the 2005 and 2006 grant cycles, on behalf of the City and County.
The Board of Supervisors made a referral to County staff to report back at the next joint meeting regarding
development of a Joint Powers Authority (J.PA) or Memorandum of Understanding (M.O.U.), The
Bakersfield City Council made and approved a similar motion. The Ad Hoc Committee of the Kern County
Solid Waste Advisory Committee met on March 7, 2005 to discuss the joint council referral and to discuss
the scope of a J.P.A.lM.O.U. and potential transfer station sites. It was determined that an M.O.U. was
the appropriate instrument for both jurisdictions. This was reported back to the Board of Supervisors and
the City Council at the September 19, 2005 joint meeting. An M.O.U. has been prepared with input from
staff in both jurisdictions.

River Walk Agreement No. 05-429 with Bright House Networks, LLC, adding wireless
internet services access at the Park at River Walk.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the Amendment to this Agreement.
BACKGROUND:
Bright House Networks, LLC, ("Bright House") entered into a License and Naming Rights
Agreement (Agreement No. 05-429) with the City regarding the Amphitheatre at the Park at River Walk on
December 14, 2005. The terms of this Agreement include $375,000, plus $125,000 in advertising events,
for a five-year period. The payments will be made each year at $75,000 beginning in 2006 though 2010.
Bright House and the City now wish to amend this Agreement to include provisions for wireless

provide:
1. Wireless internet services for use in the majority of the Park at River Walk;
2. Support and internet portal page for the wireless internet services;

SUBJECT: Amendment NO.1 to Agreement No. 04-380 ($35,000; revised not to exceed of $603,700)
with Dokken Engineering to provide design services for the Allen Road Bridge Project
(Ward 4).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of amendment.
BACKGROUND: Dokken Engineering is currently engaged by the City to perform design work to provide
construction documents for the new Allen Road Bridge over the Kern River, south of Stockdale Highway.
When the new bridge opens, new traffic patterns will develop. This amendment will allow construction of
changes to Stockdale Highway and to Allen Road to address expected traffic pattern changes and growing
traffic volume. On Stockdale Highway, an eastbound right turn lane to southbound Allen Road will be
added. This work is consistent with the City's normal construction of "expanded intersections" at major
arterial roads. On Allen Road, the new work consists of providing a closed median at Allen Road and
Lynett Way. At this location, there will be a "turn pocket worm" that will allow traffic that is northbound on
Allen Road to make a left turn onto eastbound Lynett Way. Neighborhood traffic leaving eastbound on
Lynett Way will be able to turn right and go southbound on Allen Road as they currently can do now. But
there will be no left turn movements from eastbound Lynett Way onto northbound Allen Road. This turning
restriction is consistent with the long term general plan for this subdivision.
This amendment to the design agreement for Dokken Engineering will allow the consultant to complete
design work for changes to Allen Road and to Stockdale Highway, so that these changes can be
constructed at the same time as the construction of the new Allen Road Bridge. The work effort by
Dokken Engineering will include surveying services, engineering design, utility coordination, and right of
way descriptions.
The total amount of the amendment for the services is $35,000. This changes the not-to-exceed
compensation amount in the original agreement from $568,700 to $603,700.

SUBJECT: Accept bid from Gladding McBean in the amount of $1,473,400.50 for the purchase of sewer
pipe for the Brundage Lane Sewer Line Replacement Project (Union Avenue to Mt. Vernon Avenue).
(Ward 1)
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends acceptance of bid.
BACKGROUND: The sewer line replacement project for Brundage Lane encompasses the area on
Brundage Lane between "L" Street and Mount Vernon Avenue and on "L" Street between Brundage Lane
and California Avenue. The project will advertise in late June with an approximate award date of mid-
August. The section of the project from Union Avenue to Mt. Vernon Avenue requires significant
quantities of large diameter sewer pipe which will take approximately six months to manufacture. Staff
determined it was in the City's best interest to bid the large diameter pipe separately from the construction
contract so that the pipe is available at the time of construction; the smaller diameter pipe will be bid as a
part of the construction project.
Invitations to Bid for the purchase of the large diameter sewer pipe were sent to twelve (12) suppliers.
Suppliers were asked to provide pricing for two types and sizes of pipe (36" and 42" Vitrified Clay Pipe and
Reinforced Concrete Pipe). Three (3) bids were received in response to solicitation and an abstract of the
bids is attached.
Staff finds the bid submitted by Gladding McBean, Lincoln, California to be the most advantageous to the
City and recommends award of the bid to Gladding McBean in the amount of $1 ,473,400.50.

SUBJECT: Appropriate and transfer $500,000 General Fund balance to the Capita Improvement
budget within the Capital Outlay Fund for the City's street preventative maintenance
program.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of appropriation and transfer.
BACKGROUND: This is the third administrative report to increase funding for the City's street
preventative maintenance program this fiscal year. At the December 14, 2005 meeting, Council
appropriated an additional $570,000 for street maintenance. At the March 22, 2006 meeting, Council
appropriated an additional $500,000 for street maintenance.
There is a large backlog of City residential streets that are in need of reconstruction. This budget year
our street crews have accelerated their street resurfacing/reconstruction program and also our street
sealing program to tackle this backlog. Currently, $6.6 million is budgeted for street materials in this
fiscal year. We are monitoring these expenses on a monthly basis and anticipate a funding shortfall
this year end if street crews continue at their current pace. Because several factors, such as weather,
can impact the amount spent for street maintenance, staff is requesting additional funding in phases,
rather than all at once.

SUBJECT: Appropriate $14,800 General Fund Balance to the Fire Department Capital Outlay Budget

RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of appropriation.
BACKGROUND:
The Metropolitan Medical Response System (MMRS) Continuation Grant was originally appropriated in
the 2004-05 fiscal year for the total amount of $400,000. The grant funds are for on-going expenditures,
training, and equipment needed in case of a large scale incident. Funds remaining at the end of the
2004-05 fiscal year were to be carried over into the current fiscal year. Due to some confusion regarding
the grant funding of General Fund operating costs, a portion of the grant was not carried forward into the
current fiscal year. This council action will reinstate the remainder of the grant proceeds into our City
budget, which will allow the Fire department to purchase some triage hospital beds from the remaining
grant proceeds.

SUBJECT: Resolution adopting the 2005-2026 Regional Transportation Facilities List and Fee
Schedule. (All Wards)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the Resolution.
BACKGROUND: Chapter 15.84 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code requires that the City Council adopt
the Regional Transportation Facilities List and the Transportation Impact Fee Schedule annually. The
Regional Transportation Facilities List includes those projects in the Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan
area which are included in the adopted Capital Improvement Plan annually updated by the City Council.
These facilities constitute some of the regional facilities needed to maintain a LOS "C" or prevent the
degradation of roads which are currently below LOS "C" as shown in the Metropolitan Bakersfield General
Plan -- Circulation Element.
Staff has received a request from CalTrans to add a signal at Taft Highway and Akers Road to the 2005-
2026 Metropolitan Bakersfield Regional Transportation Impact Fee Facilities List. Staff has also revised
the Facilities List to account for completed projects. Since the additional cost of the CalTrans-requested
project is offset by savings is other projects, staff is recommending that the Facilities list be revised as
attached. A summary sheet showing the changes is attached. Since there were offsetting cost savings in
other projects, the total dollar amount of the Facilities List does not change and there is no change in the
amount of the fee, except for the Construction Cost Index increase.
This update includes a 5.66% cost of living increase required by the city's ordinance. The last time the
costs were updated, the fees and costs were brought current to 2004, so the Construction Cost Index from
2004 to 2005 was applied to the list and fee schedule.

SUBJECT: Legislative and Litigation Committee Report on elimination of the
Relations Committee
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval
BACKGROUND:
On February 14, 2006, the Legislative and Litigation Committee met to determine the future of the
Intergovernmental Relations Committee (lGRC). Councilmember Irma Carson referred this item to decide
if the IGRC should be eliminated and where it's activities would be assigned.
The Intergovernmental Relations Committee of the City Council has existed for many years. Originally,
the IGRC was designed as a forum to discuss policy items of interest between the City and the County of
Kern. However, in 2002 the City and County began having joint public meetings on a regular basis, which
had the effect of taking much of the workload away from the IGRC. Currently there are two (2) Joint City-
County meetings annually, which has reduced the role of the IGRC considerably. The IGRC meets only
twice a year prior to the Joint Meeting. It's only role is to determine what items go on the Joint Meeting
agenda and previewing staff reports for that meeting.
In addition, with the creation of the Safe Neighborhoods and Community Relations Committee as a
standing committee of the Council, City staff and the City Attorney recommend we eliminate the IGRC to
maintain balance in the number of committee assignments for each Councilmember. Therefore, it makes
sense to eliminate the IGRC and have it's reduced duties handled elsewhere.
After much discussion on the item, the Committee voted to remove the activities of IGRC from any
standing committee. The Legislative and Litigation Committee felt that the draft agenda for the Joint
Meeting could be developed by staff with input by the City Council prior to the meeting, and staff reports
could be prepared like the regular City Council agenda without input from a committee in advance. The
plan would be that twice a year before each Joint Meeting the City Council would consider the draft
agenda under New Business. The City Council would then give feedback to staff on changes or additions
