REPORTS
Councilmember Smith, Chairperson of the Intergovernmental
Relations Committee, read Report No. 1-86 regarding naming of joint
facilities.
On October 17, 1986, the Intergovernmental Relations
Committee discussed the issue of naming joint-owned
City/County facilities. Based on these discussions,
the committee developed the following policy:
After discussing the issue, it is our recommenda-
tion that the City and County adopt a policy of
refraining from naming joint facilities after an
individual, unless such a request comes from people
of the community. In that instance, the request
would be considered by each agency in accordance
with current procedures.
The committee recommends the acceptance and appro-
val of the report and the adoption of this policy.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Smith, the
Report No. 1-86 from the Intergovernmental Relations
regarding naming of joint facilities was accepted.

Councilmember Ratty, Chairman of the Urban Development
Committee, read Report No. 18-86 from the Urban Development
Committee regarding requests to connect to the City's sewer
system.
On November 6, 1986 this Committee met to consider three
requests for property located outside the City to con-
nect to the City's sewer system. The requests were:
1)
Klassen Corporation for property at the northwest
corner of Quantico Avenue and Brundage Lane (All
Automatic Transmission Service).
2) Ryder Truck Rental, Inc. for property located at 2929
East Brundage Lane.
3) Carl Elkins for property located at 3815 Stockdale
Highway (two houses).
All three properties are within the City's sphere of
influence and adjacent to the City's boundaries. The
first two are within an area being studied for annexa-
tion and the owners have requested to be annexed.
However, the third location is within an area that
recently rejected annexation and the owner has not
requested annexation.
Therefore, this committee recommends that the City
Council approve the requests of Klassen Corporation and
Ryder Truck Rental to connect to the City's sewer system
subject to the owners entering into an agreement to not
oppose annexation to the City.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Ratty, the reading of
Report No. 18-86 from the Urban Development Committee, regarding
requests to connect to the City's sewer system, was accepted.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Ratty, the recommenda-
tions of Report No. 18-86 from the Urban Development Committee
regarding requests to connect to the City's sewer system were
implemented.
Councilmember Childs, Chairman of the Budget and Finance
Committee, read an Interim Report from the Budget and Finance
Committee regarding parade fees.
At the last Council meeting, the Council referred
the matter of parade fees to the Budget and Finance
Committee. The committee has met and is working
with staff on this issue. Staff is developing the
process to determine the appropriate method for
removing the parade fee from the ordinance.
The committee will be bringing a final report back
to the Council as soon as possible.

Councilmember Childs, Chairman of the Budget and Finance
Committee, read Report No. 35-86 from the Budget and Finance
Committee regarding a request for additional street lighting on
17th Street.
Bakersfield, California, November 19, 1986 Page 4
At the meeting of October 8, 1986, the City Council
referred to the Budget and Finance Committee the
issue of street lighting on 17th Street in the
vicinity of the HiI1 House. The committee has met
with Mr. Clay Kennaird, Manager of the Hill House,
regarding his concerns over adequate street light-
ing in the area surrounding his business and the
feasibility of reactivating the old pedestal light-
ing in that area.
Stall responded to Mr. Kennaird's concerns by
explaining that the old incandescent lighting sys-
tem was inefficient, not energy efficient, and
would require extensive costly renovation. These
lights were abandoned several years ago and
replaced with energy-efficient high pressure sodium
lights.
The newer lighting conforms to the City's current
standards [or the provision of street lighting.
Upon presentation of these facts, Mr. Kennaird was
satisfied that the old incandescent lighting system
could not be activated and has decided to install
additional lighting in his parking lot at his own
expense.
Therefore, the committee recommends that no further
action be taken at this time.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Childs, the reading of
Report No. 35-86 from the Budget and Finance Committee regarding
the request for additional street lighting on 17th Street, was
accepted.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Childs, the recommenda-
tions of Report No. 35-86 from the Budget and Finance Committee
regarding the request for additional street lighting on 17th
Street, were implemented.
Councilmember Childs, Chairman of the Budget and Finance
Committee, read Report No. 36-86 from the Budget and Finance
Committee regarding 1986-87 Convention Bureau Contract.
Over the past few months, the Budget and Finance
Committee has met and discussed the 1986-87
Convention Bureau contract. The City provides
funds to the Convention Bureau for the purpose of
promoting conventions and providing convention ser-
vices throughout the City of Bakersfield.
The committee has met with representatives from the
Convention Bureau, the hotel and motel industry,
the Chamber of Commerce and others who have an
interest in the promotion of conventions in
Bakersfield. Several issues emerged regarding the
marketing of Bakersfield as a convention center,
including the makeup of the Convention Bureau Board
to adequately represent the hotel and motel inter-
ests in the community, and the long-term planning
efforts of the Convention Bureau.
Bakersfield, California, November 19, 1986 - Page 5
As a result of meetings between the Budget and
Finance Committee and the Convention Bureau, the
Bureau has agreed to several changes. These
include addressing the membership issue by changing
their by-laws to guarantee greater representation
of hotel and motel interests, preparing both a
long and short-term marketing strategy, and work-
ing with the City to provide a unified marketing
strategy for promoting the City of Bakersfield.
Therefore, this committee recommends that the Mayor
execute the attached agreement between the City of
Bakersfield and the Bakersfield Convention Bureau
for the fiscal year 1986-87.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Childs, the reading of
Report No. 36-86 from the Budget and Finance Committee regarding
1986-87 Convention Bureau Contract was accepted.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Childs, the recommenda-
tions of Report No. 36-86 from the Budget and Finance Committee

DEFERRED BUSINESS
Appointment of Members to serve on the
"Central District Development Agency".
In response to an inquiry from Mayor Payne, City Attor-
ney Oberholzer stated that his office has looked at the relation-
ship between the Council and this proposed independent agency, or
appointed agency, with their consultants, and have reached the
conclusion that if the Council is on the approval cycle of the
Disposition and Development Agreement with the Redevelopment
Agency, that once that Disposition and Development Agreement is
approved by the Council, the Agency can carry out the functions of
eminent domain without the necessity of that having to come back
to the Council.
Councilmember Dickerson recommended to the Council that
-the development of this Central District Development Agency be
postponed until it can be rationalized whether that agency would
deal with eminent domain or deal with just Disposition and
Development Agreements, etc. He felt until those questions are
decided, a discussion of appointing ~nembers to this body and send-
ing this agency to do this job, in his opinion, would amount to
sending a kid loose in his candy store. He does not see the
necessity to do this without answering these questions.
Councilmember Moore made a motion that Council establish
the Central District Development Agency as has been previously
discussed and then implement the recommendation of appointments
the Mayor has presented.
RECESS
Upon the request of Councilmember Dickerson, Mayor Payne
called for a recess at 9:U0 p.m. The meeting was reconvened at
