SUBJECT: Resolution in Support for Downtown Bakersfield Location for Federal Courthouse/and
urging General Services Administration to work with City of Bakersfield and Downtown
Property Owners.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
·BACKGROUND:
Since 2003, the City of Bakersfield, through numerous letters from the City Manager's office, Economic &
Community Development, and our local legislators has been informing the General Service Administration
(GSA) of the City's desire and intent to see the Federal Courthouse site downtown. This official resolution
is reaffirming the City's position and belief that a downtown site best serves the needs of the City, its
residents, and ultimately the Federal Courthouse itself.
The resolution will be provided to our legislators to assist in their efforts to lobby the GSA, to reconsider
the City's and their constituents desire to see the Federal Courthouse project downtown.

MEMORANDUM

TO: Honorable Mayor and City Coun/ci~~
FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager
SUBJECT: Courthouse Follow-up
At the Council meeting of April 26th, several Council suggestions and questions were
made in regard to the subject of the Federal Courthouse location. Updates on issues
that were raised follow:
· The resolution of support for the downtown location is on the agenda for action
on May 10th.
· A letter has been sent to Peter Stamison, Regional Administrator for GSA, asking
for an "all hands" public meeting in Bakersfield as soon as possible.
· The GAO has been advised of the desire of our elected officials to participate in a
hearing, should there be one.

at www. nocourthouse.com provides advice on how to participate.
In a related matter, the Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution in support of a
downtown location.
RESOLUTION NO.
A RESOLUTION IN SUPPORT FOR DOWNTOWN
BAKERSFIELD LOCATION FOR FEDERAL
COURTHOUSE AND URGING GENERAL SERVICES,
ADMINISTRATION TO WORK WITH CITY OF
BAKERSFIELD AND DOWNTOWN PROPERTY OWNERS.
WHEREAS, the federal government approached the City of Bakersfield in 2003
with plans to locate a new courthouse in Bakersfield; 'and
WHEREAS,' the City of Bakersfield identified potential properties in downtoWn
Bakersfield for the General Services Administration (GSA) and offered the City's and/or
Redevelopment Agency's help in assembling sites for the new courthouse, in keeping
with ils prior established' City Council goals of locating the Federal courthouse
downtown; and
WHEREAS, Executive Order 12072 requires federal agencies to give first
consideration and preference to central business areas in meeting federal space needs
in urban areas, to consider the management efficiencies to be gained by siting new
facilities near other government facilities, to impact the economic development .and
employment opportunities in the urban area, to locate facilities in developments that
include other office or research facilities, and GSA.guidelines 'promote the goals of
Executive Order 12072; and
WHEREAS, GSA's own guidelines promote the ideals of Executive Order 12072,
and to be a "good neighbor" to existing communities; and
WHEREAS, after reviewing, potential downtown sites, GSA officials widened the
delineated search area to include sites outside the central business area in order to
ensure adequate competition in acquiring leased space; and
WHEREAS, the GSA did not inform the City of other sites under consideration in
order to get their input as to any site or community issues that may arise with their
selection, and whether they would meet City zoning or other development guidelines;
and
WHEREAS, the GSA awarded the courthouse bid to a site that is six miles from
the central business area, far from existing courts and other law enforcement facilities,
that has no other existing office_..buildings currently, is adjacent to residential
neighborhoods and an elementary school, which the City believes distinctly contradicts
the intent of Executive Order 12072, and the GSA's other bid specifications; and
WHEREAS, the GSA bypassed a qualified downtown bid which met all of GSA's
bid specifications and was at a lower cost than the bid selected, thus wasting taxpayer
dollars; and
-1-
WHEREAS, in deference to objections by the City of Bakersfield and residents
surrounding the proposed courthouse site, the development firm-of Castle & Cooke has
stated, its willingness to withdraw from its agreement with GSA to build the courthouse
at the southwest Bakersfield location, to which the GSA has rejected this offer; and
WHEREAS, the bid selection process is now under protest review by the
Government Accountability Office of the federal government; and
-. .... NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Bakersfield hereby:
1. Supports the location of the federal courthouse in downtown Bakersfield.
2. The Council urges the General Services Administration, downtown property
owners, and the City of Bakersfield to collaborate for the purposes of satisfying GSA
requirements and competitive issues to the .fullest extent possible, thereby facilitating
the location of the federal courthouse in downtown Bakersfield.
.......... 000 ........

SUBJECT: Proposal to Make the Ad Hoc Committee on 'Crime, Gang Violence and Community
Relations a Standing City Council Committee
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council determination
BACKGROUND:
City Councilmember Irma Carson requested that this item be place on the Council's agenda. Her request
is to make the Ad Hoc Committee on Crime, Gang Violence, and Community Relations a standing
committee, which would meet on a regular basis.
Whether approved at this meeting or not, this issue could be referred to the Legislation and Litigation
Committee to study the impact an additional committee would have on the current committee structure
and the possibility of having the Ad Hoc Committee on Crime assume the duties of a less-active council
committee such as Intergovernmental Relations.
