GENERAL INFORMATION

COUNC
1. The streetscape proposal that was presented to the CDDA this week will be
presented to you in the not too distant future. It is a reasonable plan
that would improve the appearance of downtown. It can be funded from
special grants the state has or trees, some block grant money and some
tax increment money I believe. It would be a nice project to have
completed by the Centennial.
2. We had a positive meeting with the County this week on the subject of the
baseball stadium. Enclosed you will find a copy of a communication we
sent them asking if they are interested in revisions to a financing plan
which were discussed at that meeting. In my opinion, this may be a better
world for bath City and County. Please review the revisions. It reduces
our total financial involvement from what I presented to you at the last
Council meeting, and, at least in terms of the initial reaction, it might
be more acceptable with the County. We'll find that out for sure when the
letter is responded to. Please call if you have questions on this issue.
3. I was asked by the Mayor to develop a list of technical concerns relative
to a Riverwalk project that would flood or replace the streets on 17th and
20th, "R" to "0" Street in a square pattern. That listing is enclosed.
There are obstacles that would have to be addressed and overcome before
such a project could be feasible.
4. A report is enclosed on the negotiations with the contract refuse haulers.
It is fair to say that it is going slow. There is also an item enclosed
regarding correspondence pertaining to a bike path at the Stockdale
Highway Bridge.
5
Q
We met with the BIA and Realtors on the disclosure ordinance - it still
isn't resolved and will require at least one mare meeting.
Enclosed please find responses to Council inquiries on:
•How to close 17th Street
•Traffic at Parsons Way and McCleary Street
•The traffic signal at Wilson and Old Stine
•A draft newsletter for the Panorama Bluffs

7. If you read the newspaper article on the hockey team name and didn't like
my vote, I'd point out:
•My head may have been in the clouds at the time.
•Better to goof on this than the appointment of the Police Chief or
an important matter.
•Many successful sports teams have "negative image" names that have
grown positive over time - Stanley Cup Champions are the "Devils,"
best team in college football the last decade is the "Hurricanes,"
and the team named after bad traffic conditions in Brooklyn are the
"Dodgers" (fans have forgotten).
•Young people like it and so did the team coaches. Kids like fog -
they get to miss 2 hours of school.
•It will make for fun images at the games.
•If they get a negative response they may change it!

JOEL HEINRICHS, COUNTY ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER
ALAN TANDY, CITY MANAGER
STADIUM
DRAFi
Thank you for the meeting of August 15, 1995, at which time we discussed
possibilities of how to bring a stadium into being with a sound, hopefully
acceptable, financial plan.
In order to secure a project that would provide family entertainment, a major
community amenity and secure a facility for minor league baseball, the following
plan would be jointly adopted.
City to be the lead agency.
County involvement, while critical, would be limited to changing the
investment of funds currently on hand to the stadium. Security for that
investment would be:
1) 80 acres of industrially zoned land valued at $25,000 per acre
($2,000,000) along with a$10.4 million dollar stadium.
2) Repayment to be made from $1 per ticket entry fee for all events and
the net proceeds from parking charges. It is conservatively
estimated that full repayment would be made from those sources at 4%
interest over 20 years or less. .
3) Additional security for loan repayment would be made in the form of
a long term securitized contract with the baseball franchise. That
agreement would provide for a guarantee of interest payments due on
the loan.
As per our discussion, this might create a partnership which allows the
project to get done with minimal risk to all parties.
Please let me know your questions and thoughts.

TECHNICAL ISSUES REGARDING
RIVERWALK PLAN NEEDING RESOLUTION
• The City has no legal right to make streets into canal ways. Downtown street
dedications expressly prohibit it. Permission is needed from any parties holding
properry rights, title searches, etc., and legal authorization is mandatory.
• Removal of all traffic and parking from a City street requires that a lengthy
statutory process be held, including public hearings. General Plan and traffic plan
amendments would be necessary.
• Land owners and/or businesses that might be damaged as a result of removal of
traffic and parking by business loss or reduced property value could claim
monetary damages from the City. For example, a tire repair shop that could not
have cars drive in would have a problem.
• The City would be exposed to liability claims from those who fell in or otherwise
had accidents involving water.
• The City would be exposed to claims from the owners of water being diverted into
the Riverwalk waterways for liability issues, water loss and other factors.
• Using downtown streets for water recharge may flood basements and would
erode and undermine underground utility lines such as telephone, power, water,
sewer, gas and cable t.v. The City would be liable for repair.
• Short bridges to allow boat passage underneath have a variety of technical
problems including high cost, safety and ADA compliance, among others. In
order to get proper site clearance, access to many properties from the street may
be cut off or restricted.
• Underground work in urban areas carries enormously high costs due to utility
conflicts, traffic access and limited availability of property and work space. No
one with experience has estimated these costs for the Riverwalk project.
• With dozens of on-street parking spaces being removed, four streets being
closed, and access to some existing private parking being restricted, where would
people working in the area, visiting the area, etc., park? Is a ramp or land for off-
street parking included in the cost estimates? We do not think so.
• With four streets being closed and a major tourist attraction going in, a traffic
engineer would have to study signals, lane widths and other traffic loading over
a fairly large area to analyze what mitigation efforts would be needed. These
woufd be expensive.
� y"2
• No experienced expert has analyzed operation and maintenance costs of the
watervvay, the "boats," bridges or other. The only estimates done are for rural
type, not urban, canals.
• The proposed site is not in the "heart" of downtown (i.e., Chester and 19th, etc.).
Might it bleed off development and business thus weakening the Chester
corridor?
• CEC1A must be followed with an EIR required and indicated impacts addressed.
• We are aware of no other City that has made downtown streets into a canal
system intentionally. If it would be a major attraction, and if it is feasible, why has
no one done it? We note, San Antonio is not a flooded street.
• Where is the $8.5 million, or whatever the real cost is (we would "guess" 2-1/2 to
3 times that) to come from? City staff has no idea, based on current and
projected revenue flow.
• Would the proposal of a 30' wide, 30" deep "waterway" filled with slow-moving
canal water really represent an attraction that would draw people from all over to
witness and observe? The type of water often carries a"musty" smell. How often
could we afford to clean debris and floating litter? Can anyone point to a visual
example of width, depth, water makeup and flow at street level so we can judge?
We already have lots of canals through Bakersfield and they are not tourist
attractions. Thirty feet width and thirty feet deep will look like an irrigation ditch.
• What becomes of land abutting the Riverwalk used for non-compatible purposes?
Drive the four streets - it is very low in pedestrian-oriented businesses. Most of
the buildings are ill-suited and ill-designed for festive market shopping, canal
overlook bars and restaurants, etc. Who pays for relocation and what is the cost?
Who pays for retrofit and/or demolition of structures not designed for the new
environment?

PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
MEMORANDUM
TO: ALAN TANDY, CITY MANAGER
FROM: RAUL M. ROJAS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR �����
DATE: August 11, 1995
SUBJECT: CONTRACT HAULER NEGOTIATIONS
Staff inet Tuesday 08/08/95 with Kern Refuse, and presented a cost model which Kern
Refuse had requested. The model indicates that the City could amortize automated
equipment and hire staff to perform the job for roughly $3 million per year. $3.2 million
is currently paid to Kern Refuse for manual service:
Kern Refuse indicated that conversion will cost more than the current price because of cart
capitalization. Staff encouraged them to consider the cost of carts, trucks, and staff
separately and to come back with their own cost model. For example, they should calculate
the cost to service carts regardless of who provides or owns the carts. Kern Refuse will do
so and meet again in two weeks.
Mr. Bovee claimed that although Kern Refuse operates more cheaply than the City, their
costs would increase �� if they convert City routes and not County routes. This is
claimed because the haulers would need backups for both automated and manual trucks,
and the route borders would be irregular. He therefore asked the City's help in urging the
County to adopt a new standard of once per week refuse cart service. (No greenwaste, no
mandatory collection; just change from two 32-gallon cans twice per week to one 101-gallon
cart once per week. Greenwaste would cost extra as it now does in County areas). Mr.
Bovee is certain that their costs will go up for conversion, but not as badly if the haulers can
convert City and County routes together.
Staff questioned whether the City would then be subsidizing County pickups. Mr. Bovee
claims no, that it's an economy of scale issue. Staff also questioned if the haulers would
support mandatory collection in the metro area. Mr. Bovee said yes, though mandatory is
unlikely to be approved by the Board of Supervisors.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: JULY 14, 1995
TO: ALAN TANDY, CITY MANAGER
FROM: RAUL ROJAS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
SUBJECT: STEPS REQUIRED TO CLOSE 17TH STREET ADJACENT TO UNION
AVENUE (HWY 204).
Closing or vacating a portion of a street, such as 17th Street, is a multiple step process
that is required by the Government Code. The process can take as long as 3 to 4
months due to posting of notices, response from utilities and setting agendas for both
the Planning Commission and the City Council. In general, the process is as follows:
1. Public Works staff send letters to the various public utilities that may have facilities
in the public right of way notifying them that the road will be closed. Closing or
vacating a street may affect the utility's operation. City and County public
agencies would also be notified. Responses from the utilities will normally take
4 to 6 weeks.
2. After receipt of comments from the utility companies, or agencies, and resolution
of any requirements they may have, the street closure is placed on the next
available agenda of the Planning Commission for a Public Hearing. Notices of the
public hearing are mailed to adjacent property owners.
3. If the Planning Commission denies the road closure, the process ends. If the
Commission approves the road closure, the recommendation to approve is sent
to the City Council for consideration at the next available meeting.
4. The City Council then must approve a resolution of intention to vacate a street
and hold a public hearing on the proposed vacation.
5. Public notice will then be posted for a minimum of 14 days at the site prior to the
Council hearing and published in the newspaper.
6. Approximately one month after the first Council meeting and after the public
notice posting period and advertisement in the newspaper, the City Council must
then hold a public hearing and pass a resolution vacating the street.
7. If the resolution to vacate and close the street is approved by the City Council, a
project must then be prepared to physically close off the street and added to the
Capital Improvement Projects list with an estimate of cost. At this time, no
construction estimate has been prepared by Engineering.

Traffic Engineering Memorandum
DATE: August 14, 1995
TO: RAUL M. ROJAS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
�. FROM: STEPHEN L. WALKER, TRAFFIC ENGINEER iiG��l`�
SUBJECT: RESPONSE TO LETTER TO Bakersfield Californian BY MARIE SILVA
REGARDiNG TRAFFIC ON PARSONS WAY AND McCLEARY STREET.
Parsons Way is a north/south street that terminates at McCleary Street which continues
to the east. When this tract was developed in the County several years ago, McCleary
was a simple "dead end" street. McCleary was not terminated in a"cul-de-sac" design
and instead was designed to continue east when future development occurred.
In 1985, Tract 4645 was recorded in an area that had been annexed in 1980 to the City.
The tract design continued McCleary Street to the east and then turned north to connect
with the rest of the tract. On December 12, 1985, the Parsons Way and McCleary area
was annexed into the City. The residents of Parsons Way/McCleary had opportunity at
the Planning Commission to protest the tract design and continuation of McCleary Street
to the east. It is my recollection that some residents of Parsons Street did protest the
tract 4645 extension of McCleary Street at the Planning Commission meeting but the
tract was approved by the Commission.
The Parsons Way connection is the only access into Tract 4645 from the south. There
is no connection to H Street on the west making access into the residential area very
limited from the west and south. Since McCleary was designed to be extended and the
Parsons Way connection was the only available access to the south, Public Works staff
supported the connection in 1985. Since that time, Parsons Way has been a continuat
source of complaints about traffic volume and speeds. This was the site of one of the
experimental speed bumps because of the traffic complaints.
The blocking of McCleary between Parsons Way and Camp Street could be done if the
Police and Fire Departments have no objection to the reduction in accessibility to the
residential areas north of McCleary. The change in volume, less than 500 cars, to other
streets would be minimal. Protests to the blocking from residents north of
Parsons/McCleary can be expected since they are now used to this access.

SUBJECT: TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT WILSON ROAD AND (OLD) STINE ROAD - COUNCIL
REFERRAL No. 15222.
ACTION TAKEN BY COUNCIL:
"ROWLES REQUESTED PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT CHECK THE
TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT WILSON AND OLD STINE ROAD DUE TO AN
INCREASE IN TRAFFIC ACTIVITY."
RESPONSE BY TRAFFIC ENGINEER:
Traffic Engineering staff have made initial reviews of the operation of the
Wilson/Stine signal and the nearby Wilson/New Stine signal in response to this
inquiry. At this time, both traffic signals appear to be operating normally. No
public inquiries or complaints have been received.
Since the traffic concern may be occurring after hours, we will be taking machine
traffic volume counts in the area to determine the highest volume periods and
also to compare with recent counts taken prior to the new commercial/retail
activity in the adjacent shopping center. Traffic signal operation will then be
reviewed during the higher, after hours, traffic volume time periods to determine
if signal adjustments are warranted. I expect this to take 2 to 4 weeks to
complete the investigation and make recommendations. If additional information
regarding this inquiry is available, please forward it to Traffic Engineering.

' CURRENT ACTlVITY AT TNE LANDFILL
From storm damage repairs to firebreaks.
the Cin- undenook several activiries «�hich
impro��e the funccion and safen- of the
; Bal:ersfield Cin- Sanitan� Landfill.
Storm Damage Repair: As �-ou l.�no«.
: the se�•ere «�inter storms caused washouts
of ��arious road�vays and drainage struc-
tures around the landfill. The Cin�'s ear[h-
«�ork contractor repaired these during the
� months of March and April. Some of the
main drainage channels «�ere unpro��ed to
��ithstand future storms. The Citv also
applied �voodr mulch o�•er the bare soil on
all slopes to pre��ent «-ind and rain erosion
� in the future.
Remo��al of Small Structures From the
Landfill Area: The California lntegrated
�Vaste Management Board ordered the
Cin� to remo��e ��arious small structures
from the actual landfill areas. These struc-
: tures included a satellite disc and a small
; shed. Although the Cin� requested that the
State allow residents to keep these struc-
tures, the State ���ould not allo�� this due to
� stringent landfill reeularions.
� Incmasing Safety with a Firebreak:
The Bureau of Land Management and Cin-
Fire Department cut a fuebreal: at the top
of the bluffs behind all of the homes over-
looking the landfill. in an effort to reduce
the potenual for ���ildfires.
LANDFILL GAS AND BLUFF RESIDENTS
�umerous repairs and impro��ements are
presend}• occurring or are scheduled to
� occur in the near future.
� Installation of Temporan� Landfill Gas
! Collection Pipe: When lan�ll gas engi-
; neers found blockage in the gas collection
j s}•stem last January, the Citt� installed a
i temporary abo��e ground pipe to continue
I
collecting landfill gas for the flare unit.
This pipe �vas also connected to sit
dormant landfill gas �vells in order to
increase the collecrion of inethane eas in
the area of the bluffs. The pipe is painted
light tan to blend ���ith the natural land-
scape. and the pipe will remain above
ground unril a permanent pipe s}-stem can
be installed out of ��iew. It should be noted
that Cin� workers inspect the pipeline at
least mlce per ���eek and collect anv mois-
ture �chich accumulates in the lo«- points.
This is done in order to l:eep the flo«� of
gas mo�-mg.
Nen� Landfill Gas Wells: The Cin• has
hired the Kleinfelder Compam� to uperade
the old landfill �as collection s��stem. in an
effon to ; �duce landfill eas concentration.
The first ��ep in this upgrade was the
replacement of six main landfill gas �ti�ells.
The ne��� «�ells are state-of-the-art
construction and have recentiv been con-
nected to the esisting vacuum line. This
has increased the amount of gas collected
and sent to the flare.
Upcoming Landfill Gas Controi VVork:
The kleinfelder Company is also desien-
ing an upgraded pipeline to sen�e the land-
fill eas ���ells discussed above and others
�vhich mav be installed in the near future.
The flare unit is also being evaluated for
possible replacement. The Kleinfelder
Compan� �vill also pro�zde a design for a
comprehensive gas collection and disposal
svstem.
SOIL SAMPLING & HEALTH RISK
ASSESSMENTS
In Februarv and March of 199�, the Cin-
hired Metcalf & Eddv to collect soil
samples from near-surface soils �tizthin the
back��ards of residences located along Pan-
orama Drive. These soil samples were
collected and anal�zed to identify the
presence of cenain compounds which
could be related to materials dumped at the �
landfill, including metals lsuch as copper. '
lead and nickel), diosins and furans.
\4etcalf & Eddy then conducted a health
risk anal}�sis to predict potential health
effects from the low levels of e�-posure to
the compounds idenrified in the soil sam-
ples. The results of the health risk anal�•sis
are pro�lded in a draft report entitled Bak-
ers/ield Citv Sanitarv Landitll Burn
Dt�mp Health Risk Studt�. Supplemental
Report. ln summarv, the report states that
�-en- lo��� concentrarions of these
compounds ha��e been detected in the soil
samples. The closure plan for the landfill
calls for at least four feet of clean soil
co�-er o��er the burn dump matenal. �vhich
is designed to reduce the potenual long-
term health risk to negligible le��els and
help collect landfill gases.
CLOSURE PLAN AND EIR
�Vork on defining the closure plan for the
Bal:ersheld Cin� Sanitarv Landfill is in
progress and on schedule. The public «ill
be notified «�hen the closure plan is
completed, and �vill be provided ari
oppommiri• to re��ie�v the finished plan.
.�ddirionall�-, an EmZronmental Impact
Report (EIR) is being prepared on the
closure plan and the public will be norified �
�ti�hen the Draft EIR is completed. A public ;
hearing «zll be held on the Draft Closure
Plan EIR and public comment on the Draft :
EIR «�11 be taken during this hearing.

TO: RAUL M. ROJAS, PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR
FROM: STEPHEN L. WALKER, TRAFFIC ENGINEER ���
SUBJECT: CORRESPONDENCE REGARDING BIKE PATH AT STOCKDALE HIGHWAY BRIDGE
We have received several letters from citizens regarding conditions on the bike path at the Kern River Bridge.
The area has been investigated and as the citizens have remarked, numerous vehicles are using the bike path
to access the river. This condition creates a safety problem for bicyclists on the bike path, and a maintenance
problem as the bike path was not constructed to accomodate vehicular traffic. To keep vehicles off the bike path,
we will be installing chain link fence and bollards at the bike path entrances to Stockdale Highway. The fence
construction will begin August 15, 1995.
While this work should keep vehicles off the bike path, access to the riverbed will not be eliminated.

:There is a serious problem at the 8tockdale bridge. There is
• a, :gen�ra►1 mi�sunde�standing tor_ � blstant disrega�d) by numerous
citizens that automobile accesa to the sandy flood-plain is
a�cceptablQ. °� - ~
The Ker� River Parkway Pla� has :et in motion the protection
of flood plain habitat in a very �arrow and th�eatened corridor.
The pian strictly eliminates access to all motorized vehicles in
this fragile ecosystem.
The a�ea ia inviting due to the wonderful flow of water in
the Kern River. People drive their cars over and alo�g the paved
bike path to either park under the bridge or make their way
closer to the river. The bike path ia not designed for tr�ffic of
this kind and not only poses a safety hazard to pedestrians and
cyclists but also threaten� the �wift de�truction of the p�th
itsel f .
It is apparent that a p�ophylactic to the problem will be
n��ded. The city police have written numerous citations but have
yet to mitfgate the problem e�tisfactorily. It may be nece�sary
to block access with boulders and locked chain gates. Sign�
adequately posted will help but will not atop th� problem. Some
of the people I talked with knew they were in violation yet felt
they we�e justified driving over the path and into the flood
plain.
Please stop the destruction of this area. There is �afe
parking available in the area. The shade of the bridge is too
inviting.

Our office received 284 calls in the month of July. Although the graffiti problem has
increased in the summer months, so has the community awareness. Several times, there
is more than one citizen calling on the same instance of graffiti. It is rewarding to listen
to the citizens of this town express their commitment to a clean and beautiful
environment. Their support and appreciation to the City's policy and program is great.
Our Adopt-A-Block program continues to grow. We have now over 180 people helping
us keep our city clean.
COMMUNITY ACTIVITIES
After five months of negotiations, I was able to obtain a signed consent form from
Builders Square's Maintenance Manager. The Builders Square's vacant building on Ming
Ave. was covered with graffiti for several months and generated the complaints of many
citizens and business owners. Because Builders Square's headquarters is in Texas, the
company took weeks before cleaning up each instance of graffiti, consequently, the graffiti
problem was constant. After obtaining the consent form, we now can remove the graffiti
immediately. A group of Highland High School students cleaned up the building on
July 5th, and up to this writing, the building has not been vandalized again. Attached is
a letter I sent to the company's Maintenance Manager after the service project was
completed.
On July 10th, a group of about 20 young people, members of the R.I.O.T. (Responsible,
Independent, Organized, Teens) club, helped beautify the City by painting over graffiti on
Outingdale St. The teens painted over 1 mile of graffiti. ._ __.______

On July 6th, VISTA Louis Armitage had a booth at the Street Fair and spent a couple of
hours passing out flyers, giving out balloons to the children, and talking to the public
about the City's program. On July 23rd, Louis had another booth at the Hispanic Trade
Show. Louis does a great job promoting the City's anti-graffiti program.
On July 10th, I participated in a Neighborhood Watch meeting with a group of Hispanic
citizens on Oregon St. The Hispanic community is a little hesitant, but with continuous
encouragement I believe they will be more actively involved.
In an effort to involve the Hispanic community, I have contacted C.S.O. (Community
Service Organization) and offered to give an anti-graffiti presentation in Spanish. The
idea was very well received and on the evening of August 16th, I will be speaking to
about 25 C.S.O. members and several residents who will be present at the meeting. The
support and involvement of the Hispanic community is vital to the success of the City's
anti-graffiti program in the East section of town.
SOUND WALL AT OAKDALE ST.
The sound wall a�ong Freeway 99 has been a concern of many citizens lately. In order
to prevent the defacing of the wall, it was decided to organize a street meeting, and help
the residents form a Neighborhood Watch to prevent graffiti and other types of vandalism.
VISTAs Louis Armitage and Alice San helped me contact each of the residents of
Oakdale St., and distribute flyers as reminders of our scheduled meeting. On July 25th,
we met on the front lawn of one of the residents. Council member Randy Rowles, Crime
Prevention staff, and area Police Officers, were present and helped make the meeting a
success. The residents have strong feelings against having the sound wall in their area,
but agreed to join forces and help each other maintain high standards of living in their
neighborhood.

Dear Mr. Gange:
On July 5, 1995, the Builders Square building on Ming Ave. was used as a service project site
by a group of high school students. These students, as well as many neighboring cidzens and
businesses, were concerned about the condition of the property and desired to make a difference
in their community. I am sending you a few pictures of the building's condidon before and after
the fact. I am sure you will join us in appreciation for their outstanding contriburion to the
beautiiication of the city.
Thank you for your cooperation in the matter. I wish you success in your efforts to lease the
property to an agency who will comply by the municipal codes of this city.
Sincerely,

Vol. 10, No. 8— August 1995
Stadium Fever
Hits Towns
Across State
By Morris Newman
Stadium fever has seized Califomia. I�Iearly
every major city in the state, and several small
towns, are either mulling new sports facilities
or the expansion of existing venues. The list of
cities includes, but is not limited to: Anaheim,
San Bernardino, Los Angeles, San Francisco,
San Diego, Fresno, Bakersfield, Lancaster,
Rancho Cucamonga, Adelanto, and Lake Elsi-
nore. Stadium promoters advance wildly differ-
ent rationales for the projects, including com-
munity boosterism, economic develo{�ment and,
in some cases, little more than a misty-eyed
belief in the inherent goodness and desirability
of baseball.
Stadium fever seems ironic, at best, in an
era when public investment in infrastructure
and education are running low. Communities
that sometimes plead poverty in the case of
building schools o'r affordable housing sudden-
ly show great ingenuity when it comes to rais-
ing tens or hundreds of millions of dollars for
stadiums. Consultants help stoke the enthusi-
asm by preparin� reports that promise great
economic benefi[s to die surcounding commu-
nity in "multipliers" of sales tax and bed tax.
Notwith�tanding, stadiums are often costfy pro-
jects that require biR public subsidies. "There is
not a stadium around that can pay back its debt
service on its gate receipts," said Ray Salvador,
spokesman for Mayor Tom Minor of the City
of San Bemardino. The city recently approved
$10 million in bond financing toward a�13
million baseball stadium, although Minor is
standing firm on the need for private contribu-
tions to make up the difference.
Much of the enthusiasm for minor-league
stadiums appears to come from the recent suc-
cess of new stadiums for Class-A California
League baseball teams in the [nland Empire.
Adelanto, Rancho Cuclmonga, and Lake Elsi-
nore have all built stadiums for California
League teams in the Ias1 four years. Althou�h
not all of them have proven to be economic
successes Cu�+�inued o�i pu,�c� 9

Stadium Fever Hits Towns Across State
Continued from page 1
(the Lake Elsinore stadium cost $24 million), but attendance at the
games in all three cities has averaged over 5,000 fans per game — a
huge number by minor-league standazds.
The concept of stadium-as-economic-engine has found champi-
ons in the City of Ventura, where John Hofer, owner/developer of the
Ventura Auto Center, has proposed a$100 million Centerplex sports
complex. The project would include (minor league) baseball, auto
racing and swimming events, as well as a marina, a
sports car hall of fame and an aquatic center.
Hofer has claimed that [here is a public inter- _,�...
est in the stadium,. as a means to shore up '� , t�
the sagging revenues that have been ��j
sliding at the auto center, the city's ��,�
top sales tax generator. Hofer
apparently has taken notice of an ((� �'
$80,000 study commissioned by , Thei
a group of west Ventura Coun- ����
ty cities, including Oxnard, Qrstadi.
Camarillo and Ventura, r
which identified the area
between Ventura and
Oxnard — the same loca- 1 r
tion as the auto mall — as '{""
the optimal location. Pro . � �,'�'��
baseball is interested in the � �. '�"`
city, according to Ray '�C"'"`.
DiGuilio, a community col-
lege baseball coach and local
baseball booster, who report-
ed that the Califomia League
"indicated a high level of sup-
port to site a team in this area."
Developer Hofer wants $45 mil-
lion in public money to build his
brainchild. But Mayor Tom Buford is `"��.,
hedging his bets, saying he is not willing ��`1y.,.
to support the project at a time when the city -�
is contemplating a number of projects competing �
for the same financial resources, such as a marina aquar-
ium complex and a regional convention center.
Perhaps the purest example of the sports visionary is San
Bemardino lawyer Gary Foltz. According to his own account, Foltz, a
tax lawyer and business advisor, was driving along the freeway when
he was struck by the need of a major sports franchise in the so-called
Inland Empire area. "Despite the fact that this is the lOth-largest
me[ropolitan area in the country, we don't have any first-class sports
teams," Foltz says.
In April, Foltz formed a limited-liability corporation, and proposes
to raise $135 million through the sale of 27,000 ownership units at a
cost of $5,000 apiece. The proceeds would go both to buy a team
and construct an arena. Pending approval from the California
Department of Corporations, "this will be the first fan-owned team
in baseball," Foltz said. Cunently, [he lawyer is reviewing six sites
in the San Bernardino-Riverside area, and says that negotiations
with teams are preliminary. "Until the offering is complete and we
have money in hand, it's hard [o negotiate," he said. One possibility
is the Pittsburgh Pirates, which are known to be looking for a new
owner. Foltz wants [o field the team in the 1997 season. (Foltz's
effort is separate from stadium efforts operating in the cities of San
Bernardino an� Riverside.)
Because stadium promoters hold out the possibility of wish ful-
fllmept for many city councils, they enjoy indulgences not nonnally
granted to more prosaic projects. A case in point is a proposal to build
a$21 million, 15,000-seat stadium for Triple-A baseball in Fresno.
Developer John Carbray of the Diamond Group missed a 1994 dead-
line to both locate a team and financing. In May, the council honored
Carbray's request for a six-month extension on his exclusive right to
negotiate with the city. Notwithstanding the lack of a done deal, [he
city has agreed to spend $5 million to assemble and convey the
site, and has already spent $1 million to improve flood
drainage in the area. In May, the council approved
•---._.,.,,�, the purchase of two parcels in downtown Fres-
� no for $1.8 miliion for a baseball stadium.
Ironically or not, stadium pro-
posals sometimes face competition
from rival proposals inside a given
is not city. In Los Angeles, Hollywood
Park, a race track, has proposed
n around '°� a$250 million stadium to be
', built entirely with private
` funds,_ with the view of
1 attracting an NFL franchise
1 (The L.A. area recently lost
,„�,. _,..��, two football teams, and the
;;;.�'''i`` �; city is an attractive market
�� r � for a one or even two foot-
^°,i� ` j ball clubs. The Phoenix
. �f � Cardinals or Cleveland
Browns have been men-
tioned as possible trans-
f plants.) That proposal, how-
� f ever, cannot be very pleasing
� % to the commissioners of the Los
,� ,,f Angeles Coliseum, a stadium
'yx � �,,� owned and operated jointly by the
r�;, �,d City of Los Angeles, L.A. County,
t ,,s-~° and the State of California, which is
,��'ti, ✓,.,,,.,-��'' newly bereft of the former Los Angeles
._...-. ''--�"" Raiders.
In the period following the Northridge earthquake,
the commission has spent about $82 million to make
seismic repairs and restoration work to the 1930s-era structure, but
did not build the luxury spectator boxes and other improvements
requested by A1 Davis, the brutally manipulative owner of the Los
Angeles Raiders. (Davis had threatened to leave Los Angeles 'if the
stadium improvements were not built, largely at public expense; last
month, Davis signed a contract with the City of Oakland.)
In addition, the developers of the Los Angeles Center office com-
plex near downtown Los Angeles known as Los Angeles Center have
been floating the idea of a stadium in the financial district, that could
serve as an alternative project for an office development at a time
when there is li[tle demand for new office space in the area. As the
Coliseum is only two miles south of downtown Los Angeles, reaction
has been lukewarm.
A similar controversy is brewing in San Francisco, where sports
teams and city officials are in a tug of war over the best location for a
arena-and-stadium complex. The Golden State Warriors baske[ball
franchise wants to move from the Oakland Coliseum to The City, into
one of two proposed venues: a 20,000-seat Rincon Hill arena near
Sixth and Townsend, or a new arena at Mission Bay, where Catellus
Development Corporation plans a new football stadium for the San
Francisco Giants. Cnntinued on puge 10
hat can pay back
its debt service
on its gate receipts,"
said a spokesman
for the
Cl� Of
San Bernardi� o �
1�1P�F�' �

Stadium Fever Hits Towns Across State
Continued fi-om page 9
The Giants and Mayor Frank Jordan are pulling for the Warriors to
go into Mission Bay, [he city's largest redevelopment project,
although consultants to the basketball team are favoring Rincon Hill,
because of its superior access.
In the case of the City of Bakersfield, enthusiasm about urban
design has led to a growing tension in that city on the future location
of a baseball stadium for the city's Class-A Bakersfield Blaze. The
City and Kern County have together hired the architectural firm of
Hellmuth Obata Kassabaum — well-known stadium designers — to
examine the construction costs at two sites; one is at the edge of
downtown Bakersfield, while the second site is in the suburban south-
westem area of the city. A consultant to the Califomia League recom-
mended the suburban location, while members of a group known as
Bakersfield Future Action Team are hanging [ough for the close to
downtown location.
Graham Kaye-Eddie, a planning consultant and volunteer leader of the
action team said that he favored the downtown site "predicated on the
Sprawl report by the Bank of America. We decided we don't need further
sprawl in Bakersfield." And although the close-to-downtown site is two
miles from the business/civic complex at Truxton and Chester, Kaye-
Eddie maintained that keeping the stadium downtown would "heighten
some significant changes in the downtown area in the past year," such as
a new city hall and the compledon of the Clarion Hotel. ❑

RE: Support for AB 1035 (Katz): Loitering: Drug Activities: Prostitution
Dear Senator Maddy:
AB 1035 makes it a misdemeanor to loiter in, or near, any public place in a manner or
under circumstances manifesting the purpose of engaging in drug-related activities or
with the intent to commit prostitution.
This bill mirrors Bakersfield's Municipal Code on drug-related activities and prostitution.
It also permits local governing bodies to adopt and enforce consistent laws and where
local laws duplicate or supplement its provisions, provides altemative remedies and does
not preempt the field.
This bill proposes to combat drug-related and prostitution activities without preempting
local efforts to do the same. Please support AB 1035.

Using as justification tne ne�d to mitigat� the imp�cts af the prablems associated with the cap
an autharizatians, "states' would be allflwed tr� transfer any federal funds in any category tha#

As proposed, this "so[uiion" to the authorization cap, pits staie and lacal agencies against each

1995/96 PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
Goals and objectives for this budget year call for development of the design schedule by
September 1. A draft schedule is being prepared with assignment of projects and should
be complete on schedule. Work continues on several fronts with regard to projects.
Preliminary utility power requests have been submitted for all new signal projects to PG&E
and all routine environmental documents have been filed.
Consultant RFQ/RFPs were received August 11th for design of three of our signal projects
(Mt Vernon Ave @ Christmas Tree Ln, Old River Rd @ Camino Media, and Old River Rd
at Howell St). The proposals are under review and final selection should be complete and
draft agreements prepared by the end of the month.
The Traffic� Operations Center study is underway and several key meetings have been held
