CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE
MEMORANDUM
August 19, 2005
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager /~ T~,,./~._~-.
SUBJECT: General Information
1. The Kern County Planning staff has issued a very favorable report on our Sphere
of Influence application. A copy is enclosed.
2. This year's Rockin' by the River concert at Yokuts Park, featuring Blue Oyster Cult,
was a huge draw, and went very well. Organizers and staff said it was the biggest
crowd they had ever seen, with attendance estimated at 12,000 to 15,000 people -
of all ages.
3. As you will recall, we are the owners of a 40 acre parcel at Stockdale and Jewetta
which we "offered up" to AYSO as a possible partial solution to the problem they
have with CSUB expanding onto the soccer fields they currently use. The parcel
has about 10 acres dedicated to a recharge lake. It must have a backup use
dedicated to water recharge with a primary use for City recreation purposes, in
accordance with the terms under which we acquired it.
AYSO Region 73 and staff have had several meetings to discuss both that site and
the larger site at Taft Highway and Gosford. Until now, we have been functioning
under the understanding that the Jewetta site would be developed first and then
the Taft Highway site would come about five to seven years from now.
We were advised by the representatives of the AYSO Board that they are very
enthused about the Taft Highway site and want to start working with us on that.
They will "pass" on the Jewetta property, however. They say it is not big enough
for their entire needs and that they can not do two major fundraisers for the two
sites. They make that decision with the full knowledge that there may be a
significant gap in time (years) between when they lose the Cai State fields and
when the Taft site can be ready. The Taft Highway site requires private sector
developers to extend roads and infrastructure development; the pace at which that
occurs is not in control of the City.
Without a user, we can not put the Jewetta site into soccer fields. The Recreation
and Parks Department has begun to brainstorm other uses compatible with the
land restrictions for the Jewetta site. That work should go to the Community
Honorable Mayor and City Council

Services Committee and, eventually, the full Council. We also need to identify
uses which may generate a lease or rental revenue to offset operation and
maintenance costs and which might be desirable for a community fundraiser for
capital costs.
This came as a surprise to us and now presents both a new opportunity and
challenge!
4. Per a councilmember request, Dianne Hoover has prepared the attached report on
revenue and expenses at McMurtrey Aquatic Center for the 2004 and 2005
seasons. Please note - this is preliminary information, as there are still three
weeks left in the summer pool season.
5. The latest' weekly pool attendance statistics for all the City pools are enclosed.
The reports for this season have compared some numbers to 2003, since three of
our pools were closed in 2004. The final analysis, when the season is over, will
show a five-year history of pool attendance.
6. In addition to the proposed eminent domain bills, SCA 15 (McClintock) and ACA 22
(LaMalfa), other variations on those proposals are appearing in the State
'legislature. Enclosed is a summary from the California Redevelopment
Association on related legislation. We have already expressed formal opposition
to SCA 15 and ACA 22 and will be keeping a close look at the new legislation
being proposed.
7. The Public Works street maintenance work schedule for the week of August 22nd is
enclosed.
8. The August activity report for Recreation and Parks is enclosed.

Kern County Administrative Office

Bakersfield, CA 93301
County Administrative Office and Planning Department Report on
proposed Expansion of the Sphere of Influence for the City of Bakersfield
(Fiscal Impact: None)
The City of Bakersfield is proposing revisions to their Local Agency Formation Commission
(LAFCO) designated Sphere of Influence (SOI) boundaries in order to allow for the eventual
annexation of 77,095' acres of unincorporated area. The City has requested the County's review
of their SOI ~expansion proposal to comply with LAFCO law.
In July, 2004, the Board approved a process.to be used to implement State Government Code
Section 56425 which requires cities who propose an amendment to their SO! to meet and confer
with County officials prior to submitting an application to LAFCO. This referral process is
intended to provide an opportunity to coordinate and reach agreement on SOI boundaries,
development standards and zoning requirements as needed to promote logical and orderly
development prior to City annexation. If a CountY-City agreement is reached, it is to be
forwarded to LAFCO for consideration. State law specifies that LAFCO shall give "great
weight" to considering a County-City agreement in LAFCO's final determination of an SOI
amendment.
The Cortese/KnoX/I-Iertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act (CKH Act) of 2000 intends
the adoption ofa SOI as the probable future physical boundaxy and service area ora city. The
SOI represents an area adjacent to a city where development migl~t reasonably be expected to
address future growth needs, and wherein annexation to a city could be approved. The CKH Act
requires a Municipal Service Review (MSR) which analyzes the ability of the city to provide
municipal services to existing and future residents. County staffhas reviewed the MSR and
other documentation prepared in evaluating Bakersfield's SOI proposal.
The subject.unincorporated properties are all located within the planning area of the joint City of
Bakersfield/Kern County Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan area. Lands included in the
SOI amendment are either developed, undeveloped or in agricultural or resources use. The
properties include areas in the western, southern, eastern and northeastern portions of the 408
square mile Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan area (see attached map).
August 23, 2005
Page 2
County and Bakersfield officials met on July 21; 2005 to discuss the SOI expansion proposal.
Bakersfield is proposing to add five areas to their existing SOI which will add 77,095 acres or
120.5 square miles to Bakersfield's current SO1, This mounts to a 58 percent increase in the
City's existing 207.6' square mile SO1 area. The City of Bakersfield's reason for pursuing the
SOI amendment is due to pending development activity and proposed future annexation actions.
This is in response to a 4.7 percent population groWth rate between 2004 and 2005 which is one
of the fastest growth rates in the nation.
All of the proposed areas to be included in the City of Bakersfield's proposed expanded SOI area
are within the Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan. Policies of the General Plan acknowledge
that the City of Bakersfield would be the appropriate jurisdiction to annex properties for urban
development providing that there is continuity with existing development in a manner that
promotes alogical and orderly extension of services including sewer, water and roads.
After reviewing Bakersfield's SOI proposal and conferring with Bakersfield officials, the County
Administrative Office and Planning Department jointly conclude the Proposed City of
Bakersfield planned expansion area is consistent with the intent of the Metropolitan Bakersfield
General Plan and that existing county zoning and development standards are adequate to regulate
.development until such time that the City of Bakersfield annexes the unincorporated areas. It is
unnecessary to enter into a City-County agreement on development standards and zoning ~.
requirements for the SOI expansion proposal as the joint City-County Metropolitan Bakersfield
planning program already provides for coordination of each jurisdiction's development
standards.
Therefore, IT IS RECOMMENDED that the Board of Supervisors receive and file this report.

, AICP, Director

Subject: McMURTREY AQUATIC CENTER REVENUE/EXPENSES 2005 VS 2004
The following is a chart comparing the totals for attendance, revenue, and expenses for
the McMurtrey Aquatic Center for the 2005 and 2004 summer seasons:
Attendance 37,671 53,620
Revenue $115,522 $126,514
Expenses $137,725 $185,268
*Note: There are 3 weeks left in the current summer season. This should have a noticeable effect
on the current year's totals.
Overall, attendance at the McMurtrey Aquatic Center has decreased since last year due
the following factors:
1) Re-opening of Planz and Siemon pools
2) Major renovation of Jefferson pool
3) Change in policy for free passes
4) Opening of four (4) spray park facilities
5) Cooler temperatures at the beginning of the season and the consistent
100°+ temperatures in the peak of the season
6) School season starting one week earlier than usual
Pool revenue has declined along with attendance, but not at the same rate because of
higher program participation than last year. Programming, such as swim lessons and
swim team, generates more revenue per participant than recreation swim.
Expenses are also lower due to several factors:
· More efficient use of staff
· Chlorine usage was lowered through the use of a stabilizer
· Less chemicals used due to lower attendance
McMurtrey

Page 2 of 3
· This number will actually increase when the 2005 summer season is
complete due to factoring in all payroll and other expenses.
The next chad details the breakdown of the attendance totals into three categories:
Rec. Swim 29,152 47,088
Program Swim 6,733 4,580
Rentals 1,786 1,952
Total: 37,671 53,620
A closer look at attendance shows the increase in program swimming. The decrease in
pool rentals was due to the increase in scheduling - - more evening programs, thus
having fewer times available for rentals. The rental time slots were lowered to
accommodate more programming at the facility which also decreased the amount of
staff needed to run the facility.

The McMurtrey Swim Team participation declined this year due to a change in
scheduling. Practice times are now in the morning as compared to the afternoon last
year. During the mornings, some kids are in summer school, half-day camps, or lack
transportation. We offered three additional swim teams at other pools which were not
available in 2004.
The lesson category also includes such classes as water polo camp, diving camp, swim
lessons (all ages), and junior guarding.
After Labor Day, we will have a more accurate picture of total attendance, expenses
and revenues. The 2004 numbers include the entire summer season from Memorial
Day to Labor Day.
Plans for this fall include offering adult water polo, water walking, water aerobics, lap
swimming, and special events such as the Polar Bear swim on New Year's Day.
If you have any questions, please contact me.

Legislative Hpdate - August 17, 2005
With the return of the Legislature this week from their summer recess, bills have been
amended significantly so that they now deal'with the eminent domain issue. Those
amended bills are as follows:
SCA 12 by Senators Tom lorlakson and Chri'stine Kehoe (principal co-authors am
Assembly ~embers Gene ~ullin and Simon Salinas) is a proposed constitutional
amendment that, if approved by the voters, would prohibit the use of eminent domain
for the takin9 of "owner-occupied residential prope~g" for private use.
SB 53 by Senator Christine Kehoe would require new and existino redevelopment
plans to declare whether eminent domain will be used and specifically allows the
agency to prohibit the use of eminent domain for certain uses such as owner-occupied
residential property or in certain 9eo~raphic areas. (Agencies have the authority to do
that now.) The use of eminent domain in new plans would be initially limited to 10
gears (instead of 12 in current law) from adoption of the plan. For plans adopted
before 3anua~ 1, 2006, they would have to be amended before July 1, 2006 to include
the planned uses of eminent domain and a time limit on the use of eminent domain
not beyond ]ulg 1, 2000. This bill may be a "spot bill" that will be kept available for
fu~her amendments.
SB' 1026 by Senator Kehoe would impose a two-year moratorium on the use of
eminent domain for the talin9 of "owner-occupied residential prope~g" for private
use. It would also require the California Research Bureau to repo~ to the Legislature
by 3anua~ 1, 2007 on all condemnations of owner-occupied residential prope~y for
private use from 1996 to 2006, and what became of those properties.
We expect companion measures to SCA 12 and SB 1026 to be introduced in the '
Assembly in the next few days.
SB 1009 by Senator Dennis Hollingswo~h would prohibit the use of eminent domain
for "agricultural property" unless the condemnin9 9overnment retains direct ownership
of the prope~y or the prope~y is transferred to a' private enti~ for health care
facilities, public utilities, or transit facilities.
SCA 12 and SB 1026, alon~ with the companion Assembly bills when they are
amended, represent the Democratic alternatives to SCA 15.(~cClintock) and ACA 22
(ka~alfa), extreme measures that would all but end the use of eminent domain for
redevelopment. C~ has not taken positions on these newest bills but continues to
register its opposition to SCA 15 and ACA 22, 'alo~9 with the League of California
Cities. We urge local 9overnment officials to let legislators know of your opposition to
these two bills and the adverse affect they would have on the ability to do local
community improvements if you have not already done so.
In related news, the Senate Local Government Committee held an informational

hearing today on how the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Kelo v. City of New London
affects California law. CRA was represented at the hearing by Joe Coomes, ,Ir. from
CPA's general counsel, McDonough Holland & Allen. Also appearing was Bill Higgins, an
attorney for the Institute for Local Self GOvernment. Both witnesses emphasized to the
Committee and legislators in attendance that the Kelo decision had no affect on
California law and that existing rights and procedural protections for property owners
in redevelopment areas remain in place.

July 2oo5, Report
WET PLAYGROUNDS
The success of our new wet playgrounds continues. Following last years first
playground at Wayside Park, City forces recently installed wet playgrounds at
Planz, Dr..Martin Luther King, Jr. and Jefferson Parks.
An additional wet playground is 50% finished at Beale Park. The demolition of
the existing pool and restrOoms is complete. Site grading and underground work
has commenced. The project should be finished in early September.
2005-06 Bud_~et
Fiscally speaking, we appear to be back on the road to recovery. For the first
time in several years we are provided General Fund Temporary funding as well
as 12 new positions. Of the 12 positions, we have allowed 2 technical positions,
1 lead for our latest park (Riverwalk), 2 Urban Forestry replacements, 5 Laborers
and 2 to develop a new Park mow crew. The later has been 20 years in the
making. The water districts, and to a lesser degree, electrical accounts were also
increased.
Finally, our replacement equipment and esPecially several of our new equipment
purchases were confirmed. We are now back to what was our approximate
contingent of two years ago although our acreage has increased dramatically.
PARK RESERVATIONS
Hot, real hot, best describes the temperature. In spite of the soaring heat wave
15,143 soles with 136 reservations still found comfort in using a reservable park
site. Of course, this does not include the tens of thousands casual users of our
parks, wet playgrounds, softball and soccer fields and playgrounds.
NEW ACREAGE
An example of the calm before the storm, we had only 1 Maintenance District
and no General Fund parcels accepted by the City for maintenance this month.
It contained just under.69 acres including 42 trees and 127 shrubs.
However, we received 3 Maintenance District and no General Fund parcels into a
365 day maintenance period. There are 115 trees and 576 shrubs included
within the 3 parcels.
WEILL PARK IMPROVEMENTS
The irrigation system at Weill Park has experienced problems over the years.
Upon further investigation we found the park operating on. one of our last
pneumatic irrigation clock systems. We also discovered about 5 different type
sprinklers used to irrigate the park.
We laid out a new sprinkler system, installed by a combination contractor and
City staff. We are mostly finished with the project and should have total
completion by mid August.
