Councilmember Ratty, Chairman of the Urban Development
Committee, read Report No. 8-86 regarding Rancho laborde
Development Agreement, as follows:
Bakersfield, California, April 16, 1986 Page 3
The owners of Rancho Laborde, Jean and Madonna
Laborde, and the Trustee in Bankruptcy, Clifford
Bressler, have requested that a development
agreement be entered into between them and the
City of Bakersfield. The proposed Development
Agreement would be applicable to the approximately
1,900 acres of Rancho Laborde which is covered by
the Rancho Laborde Specific Plan. Although the
City has previously entered into agreements with
developers on certain aspects of proposed projects
this would be the first "Development Agreement"
entered into by the City pursuant to Governmeat
Code Section 65864, et. seq. LAFCO made execution
of a development agreement a condition of City
annexation of Rancho Laborde.
Under a development agreement both the City and the
developer commit themselves to proceed in accor-
dance with the terms of the agreement. The City
promises not to change its planning or zoning laws
or designations applicable to the development for a
specified period of time. Land use regulations
applicable to the Project are those in effect upon
the effective date of the agreement. The developer
agrees to construct specific improvements, provide
public facilities and services, develop according
to a specified time schedule or make other commit-
ments which the city might otherwise have no
authority to compel a developer to perform.
Compliance with the development agreement must be
reviewed at least every 12 months. In the case of
Rancho Laborde the Agreement serves to articulate
the understandings developed during the last nine
months of annexation and planning work. This
Agreement focuses on implementation of the specific
plan, responsibilities for installation of public
facilities, their financing mechanisms, and availa-
bility. The term of the Agreement is 15 years.
A copy of the Agreement is attached as a part of this
report. It is to be considered in the same manner
as proposed zoning at a public hearing set for April 16,
1986. The Planning Commission held a public hearing
March 20, 1986, and recommended adoption.
MAJOR POINTS
Major points of the Agreement are listed below:
1) Rancho Laborde Specific Plan will govern the
land uses to be developed.
2)
Unless modified by this Agreement the city ordi-
nances and policies in effect at the time of the
Agreements' adoption will be applicable to sub-
sequent development.
3) The Agreement expires fifteen years from the
date of adoption.

assessment districts.
The Company (the Laborde's) shall advance

REPORTS
Upon a motion by Councilmember Salvaggio, Report No.
1-86 from the Rules and Procedures Ad Hoc Committee regarding
Council meetings was referred back to the Ad Hoc Committee. This
Report was not read into the record.
Bakersfield, California, April 16, 1986 - Page 8
Councilmember Christensen, Chairman of the Auditorium
and Community Services Committee, read Report No. 1-86 regarding
Approval of the Board of Trustees of the Bakersfield Art
Foundation for Management of the Cunningham Art Gallery, as
follows:
On December 18, 1985, the City Council recommended
that a new non-profit corporation, governed by a
board of trustees, be established for the purpose
of managing the Cunningham Art Gallery. A con-
dition for the designation of the Bakersfield Art
Foundation to manage the gallery is that the City
Council approve the proposed board of trustees.
This matter was referred to the Auditorium and
Community Services Committee on March 19, 1986, and
since that time the committee has met with repre-
sentatives of the Bakersfield Art Foundation and
staff to review the proposed Board of Trustees.
The committee feels that the proposed Board of
Trustees and the Advisory Board of Directors repre-
sent a cross section of business and community
leaders who will provide the necessary management
direction for the Cunningham Art Gallery.
Therefore, this committee recommends the ratifica-
tion of the Bakersfield Art Foundation Board of
Trustees and the Advisory Board of Directors as
detailed in Attachment A for the management of the
Cunningham Art Gallery. The committee also recom-
mends a vote of confidence for the Bakersfield Art
Foundation for its continuing support of the arts
in Bakersfield.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Christensen, Report No.
1-86 from the Auditorium and Community Services Committee
regarding Approval of the Board of Trustees of the Bakersfield Art
Foundation for Management of the Cunningham Art Gallery, was
accepted and the recommendations adopted.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Moore, City Manager
Report No. 10-86, regarding Downtown Business Association's Proposal
for Five Downtown Street Faires was moved forward on the agenda to
be heard at this time.
Public Works Manager Hawley read Report No. 10-86
the City Manager regarding Downtown Business Association's
Proposal for Five Downtown Street Faires as follows:
from
At the City Council meeting of March 5, 1986, the
Downtown Business Association presented its propo-
sal to hold a series of five street faires in the
downtown area. The DBA's proposal is to close
Chester Avenue between 18th and 20th Streets during
the evening of the third Thursday of each month
from May through September.
The DBA's request necessitates the revision of an
existing ordinance in addition to the passage of an
emergency ordinance. Currently, the number of
sidewalk sales allowed each year is limited to
three by ordinance. In order to accommodate both
the street faires and periodic sidewalk sales, it
is recommended that Section 12.44.030 of the
Municipal Code be revised by increasing this limit
to nine per year.
Bakersfield, California, April 16, 1986 - Page 9
In addition to this ordinance revision, a new ordi-
nance is needed which provides for the closure of
streets for retail purposes. The City Attorney has
drafted an ordinance which addresses the issue of
street closure for retail purposes. This ordinance
provides for a permitting process very similar to
that currently required by ordinance for special
events. In order to secure a street closure per-
mit, applicants will be required to obtain liabi-
lity insurance in an amount specified by the City
Attorney and must agree to reimburse the City for
all expenses in excess of those incurred by the
provision of normal City services. This ordinance
would give the City Manager authority to approve
permits for street closure for retail purposes pro-
vided that the traffic ramifications are deemed to
be non-hazardous by the Police Chief and City Engineer.
Passage of the recommended emergency ordinance
would clear the path for approval of the Downtown
Business Association's request. However, the
Police Chief, Public Works Director and I do not
support the closure of Chester Avenue. Since
Chester is a major north-south arterial with under-
passes at the railroad tracks, closure is antici-
pated to result in substantial traffic problems.
Therefore, staff recommends closure of an east-west
street, such as 19th Street, as an alternate loca-
tion for the street faires.
If the City Council wishes to direct staff to
approve the closure of Chester Avenue for the May
15 Street Faire, I request that this be done on a
pilot basis only, pending an evaluation of the
resulting traffic impact by the Police and Public
Works Departments. In addition, a stipulation
would be attached to the closure of Chester which
would provide for street closure at 6:00 p.m.
rather than the closing time of 5:30 p.m. requested
by the DBA.
Councilmember Salvaggio made a motion to direct staff to
approve the Closure of Chester Avenue for the May 15 Street Faire;
request it be done on a pilot basis on]y; have an evaluation on
resulting traffic impact by the Police and Public Works
Departments; and closing time be 6:00 p.m., rather than 5:30 p.m.
City Attorney Oberholzer indicated that the motion
should be to adopt the Ordinance, and if this is not a successful
effort, then the City will not grant another permit and would come
back to Council to rescind the Ordinance.
In response to Mayor Payne, Councilmember Salvaggio
accepted the suggested motion by City Attorney Oberholzer to adopt
the Ordinance, and if this is not a successful effort, then the
City will not grant another permit and would come back to Council
to rescind the Ordinance.
After a very lengthy discussion, Mayor Payne suggested
that the Ordinance be amended to allow an application for a permit
no less than 20 days prior to the event and submit a complete list
of participants to the City Manager no less than seven days prior
to the event.

Councilmember Childs, Chairman of the Budget and Finance
Committee, read Report No. 9-86, regarding Request by Bank of
America Foundation for Donation for California Child Care
Initiative Program, as follows:
On March 5, 1986, the City Council received a
request from the BankAmerica Foundation for a grant
of $10,000 for the California Child Care Initiative
which was referred to the Budget and Finance
Committee.
This committee has met and discussed the proposed
grant with City staff and Julie Parsons of the
Community Connection for Child Care. The committee
recognizes the need for child care facilities and
the contribution the Community Connection for Child
Care has made in this area. In the 1985-86 budget,
the City contributed $64,000 to a child care pro-
ject requested by the Community Connection for
Child Care.
With regard to the grant request, the committee
expressed several concerns. First, the viability
of the project due to difficulties in obtaining
insurance coverage for home child care providers.
Second, the California Child Care Initiative is
just completing the pilot project phase, and the
independent evaluation of the program's success
will not be completed until sometime in September
1986.
The Foundation has also requested funding from the
City's Community Development Division in the amount
of $10,000. The committee expressed concern about
the availability of Community Development funds due
to Federal funding reductions.
Therefore, this committee recommends that the grant
request not be included in the City's 1986-87 pro-
posed budget and be deferred until such time as the
final evaluation report of the pilot project is
issued.
The committee recommends the acceptance
val of this report and the adoption of

Councilmember Childs, Chairman of the Budget and Finance
Committee, read Report No. 10-86 regarding Request by Mayor Thomas
Payne for Partial Reimbursement of Sister City Expenses as follows:
Bakersfield, Califoraia, April 16, 1986 Page 11
On April 2, 1986, the City Council received a
request from the Mayor requesting partial reimbur-
sement for his personal out-of-pocket costs for his
trip to Wakayama, Japan that were directly related
to the Sister City Program.
This committee has met and discussed this request
with the Mayor and has recognized the importance of
maintaining the relationship with our Sister City.
The committee also recognizes the contributions by
others in support of the Mayor's visit to Wakayama.
The committee feels that the involvement in the
Sister City Program may provide an important oppor-
tunity to increasing economic ties to Japan and the
City of Bakersfield.
The committee also recognizes that the Mayor's
visit to Wakayama greatly contributed to the con-
tinuation of the Sister City relationship.
Therefore, this committee recommends that the City
reimburse the Mayor for those expenses for his
visit to Wakayama, Japan which are attributable to
his participation in the Sister City Program after
submitting the proper documentation.
The committee recommends the acceptance and appro-
val of this report and the adoption of its recom-
mendations.
Upon a motion by Councilmember Childs, Report No. 10-86
from the Budget and Finance Committee regarding Request by Mayor
Thomas Payne for Partial Reimbursement of Sister City Expenses,
was approved and the recommendations adopted.

possible, it must also be aware of the past. It is
this need for a constant focus on three different
points in time that makes personnel a fascinating
area of study.
It is from this perspective that the current
sonnel rules and regulations for the City of
Bakersfield must be analyzed.
per-
The City's rules governing personnel practices stem
from a number of sources. They can be found in the
Charter, the Code, Memoranda of Understanding, the
Salary Resolution, the Administrative Manual, indi-
vidual departmental personnel rules, the
Employer-Employee Relations Supplements, past prac-
tice, and three different sets of Civil Service
Regulations.
These rules and regulations vary greatly in terms
of longevity. Some have been in effect since 1915,
while others have been adopted only recently.
During the more than 70 years that these rules have
been formulated, no one has ever performed a
comprehensive review of them. Consequent]y, the
City has some personnel rules that are internally
inconsistent, anachronistic, or redundant.

it very difficult for those who must

or supervisors' questions often entails

It also creates problems for employees
who are trying to act in accordance with City rules
when it is often so difficult to determine what
those rules are.
The personnel system is the heartbeat of the City
organization. It is the system used to find, keep,
and foster the City's most valuable resource--our
employees.
It is from this perspective that staff recommends
having the firm of Ralph Andersen and Associates
perform a comprehensive review of the City's per-
sonnel system. This firm is regarded as the most
capable in the state to perform such an analysis.
Staff feels that the firm could review our person-
nel system, understand how and why the City's per-
sonnel system has developed, realize the needs of
today's employees, and look towards the future to
help develop a personnel system which will be
capable of making the City work force as competent,
creative, and energetic as possible.
In conjunction with this study, it is recommended
that the firm of Main Hurdman perform a management
audit of the City Attorney's Office. It is the
City Manager's policy that an audit be performed
each year in one of the major departments. In
light of the Council's recent concerns with the
City Attorney's Office, it is recommended that this
function be the next to be afforded the opportunity
of receiving a management audit. It is felt that
this independent management audit firm would ensure
that the Attorney's Office is functioning as effi-
ciently as possible. Main Hurdman has considerable
experience with performing management audits and
has expertise with performing such audits for legal
offices.
The firms of Ralph Andersen and Associates and Main
Hurdman have a wealth of experience performing the
types of tasks we are asking of them. The firms
are recommended to Council after proposals were
solicited from seven firms which specialize in
management audits and which have the best reputa-
tion for producing quality work of this type.
Recommendation: It is recommended that the City
Council authorize staff to: 1) Execute a contract
with Ralph Andersen and Associates to perform an
analysis of the City's personnel system; 2) Exe-
cute a contract with Main Hurdman to perform a
management audit of the City Attorney's Office; and
3) Transfer $45,000 from the Council Contingency
fund to the Administrative Services budget to cover
contract expenses.

Report No. 13-86 regarding Audit of City Attorney's Office and
Personnel System was approved and the requests contained therein

City Manager Caravalho
14-86 regarding Review of AB-3290
follows:
read City Manager's Report No.
by Legislative Committee, as
Assembly Bill 3290, introduced by Assemblyman
Rogers and cosponsored by Senator Stiern, has as its
purpose providing state financial support to NPIAS
listed airports, including the Bakersfield Airpark
and Meadows Field. AB 3290 would change existing
law by diverting from the State General Fund those
revenues generated by the collection of the 6%
sales tax on jet fuel. These funds would be placed
in a special aeronautics account administered by
the Department of Transportat|on for equitable
distribution among all State of California air-
ports. The Bakersfield Airpark would receive up to
$166,844.00 per year, and Meadows Field would
receive up to $2,725,605.00 per year.
The benefit to the public is substantial; the addi-
tional capital will reduce environmental noise
pollution, increase safety and security at air-
ports, improve monitoring systems on fueling and
hazardous wastes, and stimulate local development
by diversifying local economies and ensure the eco-
nomic viability of all air carrier and general
aviation airports.
A request was made that the City Council of
Bakersfield lend its support to AB 3290. I am
hereby requesting that the City Council refer this
bill to the Legislative Committee for review.
J. David Kennon, Economic Development Director, and
Robert P. Olis]agers, Airport Operations Manager,
are available to answer any questions you may have.
Councilmember Childs made a motion to support AB-3290.
This motion was approved.
