AGENDA HIGHLIGHTS
August 17, 2011 COUNCIL MEETING
item 8d. Adoption of an Ordinance amending the Municipal Code relating to alarm regulations.
In 2009, the Police Department began a comprehensive review of the alarm system regulations in
the City, largely due to the high volume of false alarm responses on an annual basis. Following
multiple meetings with industry representatives and the Legislative and Litigation Committee,
recommended changes to the City's Alarm Regulations are being forwarded to the Council. The
revised code section provides clear and comprehensive regulations related to alarm systems,
including identifying the duties and responsibilities of alarm users and installers as well as revising
false alarm allowances and penalties. The first reading of this item was on the July 13, 2011
Council agenda.
Item 8f. First Reading of an Ordinance to permit the continued existence and operation of the
Bakersfield Redevelopment Aaencv. On July 13, 2011, the City Council approved a resolution
stating the City intention's to comply with the newly enacted State legislation that will eliminate
redevelopment agencies, unless they make required payments to special school funds. As the
next step, a continuation ordinance must be adopted by November 1, 2011. The estimated
amount the Agency will have to pay is $3,777,822 in FY 2011/12 and $888,889 for FY 2012/13. By FY
2013/14, after making the required annual payments, the Agency should receive approximately
$2 million to continue to fund redevelopment. In response to the State actions, the City has filed
an appeal to reduce the FY 2011/12 payment; in addition, the League of California Cities and the
California Redevelopment Agency filed a lawsuit challenging the State legislation. With regard to
the later, the State Supreme Court issued a partial Stay on August 11, 2011, which means that
redevelopment agencies will not have to dissolve by October 1, 2011 or make the State
mandated payments, pending the legal outcome. However, the Court kept in place the
legislation that freezes any new redevelopment programs. A final ruling is to be issued by mid -
January, 2012. While the Court's recent action is reason for some optimism, staff recommends that
the City proceed with the proposed ordinance, given the uncertainty of the final legal decision.
Item 8u. Agreement for Engineering Design Services for the SR -178 /Morning Drive Interchange TRIP
Prgiect. The next major TRIP project on the east side of Bakersfield is the construction of an
interchange at SR -178 and Morning Drive, and widening the freeway to 4 lanes for about 1.5 miles
from west of Morning Drive to the future Vineland Road. It will include the addition of auxiliary
lanes between the Fairfax Road and Morning Drive on and off ramps. Of the 7 firms that
responded to the RFP, a selection committee reviewed their proposals and invited 3 firms for
subsequent interviews. Based on the rankings of the proposals and interviews, T.Y. Lin International
was selected, and the contract cost of $3,550,000.00 was negotiated by the Public Works TRIP
staff, in accordance with federal procurement procedures. When CalTrans issues approval of the
Final Environmental Document, which is expected soon, TY Lin will be given authorization to start
their work.
0
Items 89g. through 8mm. There are 7 items on the Council agenda to replace various pieces of
equipment needed for Recreation and Parks and Public Works operations. These requests reflect
the approvals granted in the FY 2011/12 budget and will begin restoring some degree of normalcy
to our equipment replacement process.
Item 8pp. Constriction Contract for the Mill Creek Sister City Gardens - Phase A. This project will
consist of new landscaping and related improvements along the Mill Creek Linear Park walking
path, at the southeast corner where the path intersects with 18th Street. The landscaping will
reflect the Asian Sister City regions that will be represented at the Phase A site. The project will be
funded from State Proposition 1 C grant funds, with $1.1 million available from that source. As the
Engineer's Estimate was $900,000, and the low bid was for $1.1 million, $200,000 in previously
reserved redevelopment funds from the Old Town Kern - Pioneer Project Area will also be allocated
towards the project, for a total of $1.3 million in available funding. This will allow for potential
change orders, inspection services, and other costs that may exceed $1.1 million. Of the 3 bids
that were received, a local firm, Rock Bottom, Inc., was the low bidder in the amount of $1.1
million. Staff recommends award of the construction contract to Rock Bottom, Inc. and a $200,000
appropriation of redevelopment funds to the Public Works Capital Project Budget.
Item 8qq. Construction Contract for the City Landfill Final Closure. The landfill was closed in 1983,
but it has taken many years to obtain full approval from the State to proceed with the final closure
plan. This project will include clearing the vegetation, grading, soil placement and re- seeding for
erosion control on the site. The Engineer's Estimate for this project was $5,300,000. 7 firms
submitted bids; all were acceptable. Staff recommends approval of the contract with the low
bidder, Raminha Construction, Inc. in the amount of $3,368,908. The project will be funded from
the Refuse Enterprise Landfill Closure Reserve Fund; there will be no impact on refuse rates.
Item Sm Contract for Reconstruction of Ming Avenue from Wible Road to Hughes Lane. This
project will reconstruct the middle and outside lanes, as well as access ramps, curb and gutter
modifications, striping, pavement markings and traffic signal detector loops on Ming Avenue,
between Wible Road and Hughes Lane. There were 3 bids received, all acceptable, with the low
bidder being Granite Construction, in the amount of $1,063,104.00. The project will be 100%
funded through Gas Tax revenue.
There will be a conference with legal counsel regarding one matter of potential litigation and a
conference with the labor negotiator.
Item 12b. Ward Reapportionment. Since the last reapportionment in 2006, Bakersfield has grown
by over 42,000 people, predominately in the northwest and southwest. As required by the City
Charter, the words are to be divided equally by population, so a new reapportionment must be
done to achieve the accurate balance. To begin the process, staff will present three different
maps that equalize the population for each ward. These alternatives are not being
recommended for adoption at this time, but are intended to be for initial review as the Council
considers various options over the next few months.

Item 14a. Prol,osal to Create a Housing Incentive Task Force The Planning and Development
Committee has addressed in a series of meetings the concept of reducing fees to stimulate new
housing construction in Bakersfield. After reviewing various ideas, the Committee forwarded a
Majority and Minority Report to the full Council for consideration of a General Fund subsidy to new
home buyers. On June 29, 2011, the Council approved the Majority Report recommendation,
which was not to provide the subsidy. Councilmember Weir then requested the establishment of a
task force to focus on methods for stimulating new home construction. The Council will determine
if the task force should be created, and if so, consideration may be given to other related issues,
including a time limit for the task force to report back to the Council.

Adoption of an Ordinance amending Section 14.12.390 Subsection B and
Subsection C of the Municipal Code relating to Sewers.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of the Ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
At the City Council meeting of June 29, 2011, Vice -Mayor Couch requested staff consider
extending the time period for property owners to pay the cost for sewer connection fees and /or
the sewer construction fees from five years to seven years. At first reading of the ordinance on
July 13, 2011, staff was asked that the time be extended from the proposed seven years to eight
years or longer.
Currently, the City may enter into an agreement to allow property owners of single family
residences to pay the fees through the property owner's property tax bill for a period not to
exceed five years. This ordinance will extend the not -to- exceed period to eight years. There is no
interest charged to the property owner during this period, and the costs are reflected as a lien on
the owner's property.

TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND COUNCILMEMBERS
FROM: JOSHUA H. RUDNICK, DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY
SUBJECT: AGENDA ITEM B.C, CONSENT CALENDAR
This item refers to adoption of an ordinance amending Section 14.12.390
Subsection B and Subsection C of the Municipal Code relating to Sewers. First
reading was on July 13, 2011.
Councilmember Couch requested that staff clarify the use of the word "lien"
identified in the last sentence of the Administrative Report.
Currently, the City may enter into an agreement to allow property owners of
single family residences to pay the fees through the property owner's property
tax bill for a period not to exceed five years. This ordinance will extend the not -
to- exceed period to eight years. There is no interest charged to the property
owner during this period, and the costs are reflected on the owner's property
tax bill.
To clarify, the above only applies when a property owner of a single family
residence asks to be connected to the City's sewer system. If a property owner
decides to take advantage of the interest -free payment plan, the payments are
added to the property owner's property tax bill. The plan does not require that
the entire amount be pre -paid before sale of the house at a later date (unlike a
judgment lien which may have to be resolved prior to escrow closing).

Adoption of Ordinance amending Chapter 5.08 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code
relating to Alarm Regulations. (All wards)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of the ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
In 2009, the Bakersfield Police Department (BPD) began a comprehensive review of the alarm
system regulations in the City of Bakersfield (City). Following several meetings with the Legislative
and Litigation Committee, as well as three public meetings with alarm industry representatives,
the BPD concluded that City practices were ineffective and out of date with industry standards.
On June 20, 2011 the Legislative and Litigation Committee recommended revisions to the existing
alarm ordinance which reflected BPD'S desired changes.
The proposed ordinance deletes the present Chapter 5.08 in its entirety and is replaced by this
ordinance. The provisions of the new alarm ordinance are more user friendly and clearly address
the duties of alarm users and installation /monitoring companies, false alarm allowances per
alarm user, and civil /criminal remedies available to the City.
Prior to first reading at the Council meeting on July 13, 2011, staff submitted a memorandum
which provided minor modifications to Sections 5.08.190(A) and 5.08.190(B), which were needed
to better address the civil penalties for each false alarm. First reading with the proposed
amendments occurred on July 13, 2011.

order to avoid dissolution of the Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency (Redevelopment Agency).
This bill provides for an agency to continue to operate and function if the City (City Council) has
enacted a binding continuation Ordinance by November 1, 2011. If the Ordinance Is adopted,
then AB 1 X 26 (Dissolution Act) is inapplicable to the Redevelopment Agency and the agency
may continue to operate normally as long as the City makes the continuation payments.
The Ordinance requires that the City make annual payments from redevelopment resources to
a Special District Allocation Fund (SDAF) and Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund (ERAF)
established for each county and administered by the County Auditor- Controller. The California
Redevelopment Association (CRA) has calculated an estimate of the payments for the
Redevelopment Agency for FY 2011/12 In the amount of $3,777,822 and $888,889 for FY 2012/13.
It Is expected that the annual payment amount will Increase each year depending on the
amount of tax increment collected by the redevelopment agencies. It is anticipated that by FY
2013/14, the Redevelopment Agency will receive approximately $2 million annually after
making Its annual payments to the State to continue with planned and future redevelopment
efforts.
Appeal of Amount of Remittance
Staff has filed an appeal of the amount due for FY 2011/12, as our Redevelopment Agency
Incurred additional bonded Indebtedness shortly after the filing of our 2009 State Controller's
Report. This is the document that will be used by the California Department of Finance as the
basis for the payment calculation formula for FY 2011/12. As a result of the correction of the
debt amount, the Redevelopment Agency payment could be reduced If the appeal is
approved by the State.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Legal Action
On July 18, 2011, the League of California Cities and CRA filed a lawsuit with the California
Supreme Court to challenge the constitutionality of the legislation. On August 11, 2011, the
Court agreed to take the case and also granted part of the Stay requested by the CRA and
League of California Cities. The partial Stay, in effect, prevents redevelopment agencies from
being forced to dissolve by October 1, 2011, or to make the payments until the Court rules on
the merits of the case. However, the Court did allow to remain in effect the AB 1 X 26 provisions
that preclude existing redevelopment agencies from Incurring new Indebtedness, transferring
assets, acquiring real property, entering Into new contracts or modifying existing contracts,
entering Into new partnerships, adopting or amending redevelopment plans, etc. The Court
also established an expedited briefing schedule, which should enable the Court to make a final
ruling before January 15, 2012.
Proposed Ordinance
The proposed Ordinance provides among other provisions as follows;
1) Remittances may be paid from Redevelopment Agency funds /assets transferred to
the City.
2) The City by this ordinance does not Intend to pledge any general fund revenues or
other assets.
3) The City reserves the right to appeal the California Director of Finance's
determination of the FY 2011/12 community remittance, and the City Intends to pay
these community remittances under protest and without prejudice to the City's right
to recover such amounts and Interest thereon, to the extent that there is a final
determination that AB 1 X 26 and AB 1 X 27 are unconstitutional.
4) The City also reserves the right, regardless of any community remittance made
pursuant to the Ordinance, to challenge the legality of AB 1 X 26 and AB 1 X 27.
5) If the court enjoins, restrains or grants a stay as to the City's payment obligation under
the bills, the City shall not be obligated to make any community remittance for the
duration of such Injunction, restraint or stay.
Remittance Agreement
If the Ordinance is enacted, staff will return to the Council and Redevelopment Agency with
actions authorizing the City and Redevelopment Agency to enter Into a Remittance
Agreement whereby the Redevelopment Agency agrees to transfer a portion of Its Net
Available Tax Increment to the City equal to that year's Remittance for the City to make
Remittance to the County. Net Available Tax Increment is all tax Increment less existing debt
service and third party obligations and excluding Low /Mod Housing Funds other than L/M Funds
allocated for the FY 2011/12 Remittance. The Program exempts agencies from making the
allocation to the L/M Fund, in FY 2011/12 only, if there are Insufficient funds for debt and other
obligations, program needs, or Remittance Agreement obligations.
Dissolution Option
If the City falls to adopt or later on rescinds the Ordinance or falls to make the continuation
payments, then the Redevelopment Agency becomes subject to the Dissolution Act and will be
eliminated, which will drastically reduce the amount of local tax dollars to continue significant
redevelopment projects In Bakersfield. The City as a local agency recipient and as part of the
S: \COUNCIL\ Admins\ 11- 12\ RDA.AItRedevPrgm- 8- 11- 2011.docx
9 A
° ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
post - dissolution process could receive approximately 17% of the local tax dollars that revert
back to County control, which is estimated to be between $400,000 to $750,000 annually.
Dissolution of the Redevelopment Agency would eliminate the Redevelopment Agency's ability
to enter new revitalization programs /activities and would wind up the Agency's currently -
approved and enforceable obligations and projects, thus Increasing the need for City
resources to address former project area Infrastructure needs and hindering efforts to address
the shortage of affordable housing.
Conclusion
Staff recommends and encourages the City Council to adopt the Ordinance required by the
State to continue redevelopment efforts in Bakersfield.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
The owners of the above - mentioned properties failed to commence the required work as
ordered by the Building Director to abate a public nuisance. As permitted under Chapter
8.80 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code, the public nuisances listed above were abated
under the direction of the Chief Code Enforcement Officer. The costs incurred by the City
can be assessed against the property as provided for in Chapter 8.80 of the Bakersfield
Municipal Code. Property owners had been given notice of their right to appear at the
hearing on this matter before the City Manager or his designee and to object to the
correctness of the costs incurred by the City to remove the public nuisance. The City
Manager designee has approved the assessments associated with the above mentioned
properties.
The Council will need to confirm the approval of the City Manager designee of the costs
incurred by the City for work performed to remove the public nuisance and order that such
costs be made a lien against the property. This will be done by adoption of the attached
resolution.

The owners of the above - mentioned properties failed to commence the required work as
ordered by the Building Director to abate a public nuisance. As permitted under Chapter
8.80 of the Bakersfield Municipal Code, the public nuisances listed above were abated
under the direction of the Chief Code Enforcement Officer. The costs incurred by the City
can be assessed against the property as provided for in Chapter 8.80 of the Bakersfield
Municipal Code. Property owners had been given notice of their right to appear at the
hearing on this matter before the City Manager or his designee and to object to the
correctness of the costs incurred by the City to remove the public nuisance. The City
Manager designee has approved the assessments associated with the above mentioned
properties.
The Council will need to confirm the approval of the City Manager designee of the costs
incurred by the City for work performed to remove the public nuisance and order that such
costs be made a lien against the property. This will be done by adoption of the attached
resolution.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Chapter 7 of the California Vehicle Code (CVC) defines three different speed limits within
which all drivers should obey whether or not signs are erected indicating those speed limits.
The three different speed limits are as follows:
1. 15 m.p.h.
a. At "blind" railroad crossings. (CVC Section 22352.a.1)
b. At "blind" intersections. (CVC Section 22352.a.2)
C. On any alley. (CVC Section 22352.a.3)
2. 25 m.p.h.
a. Ina "residence" district. (CVC Section 22352.b.1)
b. Ina "business" district. (CVC Section 22352.b.1)
C. In a school zone. (CVC Section 22352.b.2)
3. 55 m.p.h.
Upon a two -lane, undivided highway. (CVC Sections 22349 b., and 40802)
4. 65 m.p.h.
Any street which does not fall into the categories listed in numbers 1, 2 and 3
above. (CVC Sections 22349.a. and 40802)
The California State Legislature revised the California Vehicle Code (CVC) effective January 1,
1997 to set the maximum speed limit at 65 mph.
The CVC allows the 25 m.p.h, speed limit to be raised (Section 22357) or the 65 m.p.h. speed
limit to be lowered (Section 22358) to facilitate the smooth orderly flow of traffic. This increase
or reduction is done by an "Engineering and Traffic Survey ". The survey must be done in
accordance with State mandated procedures and must be renewed every five (5) years.
The speed limit which is proposed in the subject resolution has been established as a result of
an "Engineering and Traffic Survey ".

SUBJECT: Resolution determining that bidding for City radio communications equipment
cannot be reasonably obtained through the usual bidding procedures because
of the need to integrate into the existing City radio infrastructure and authorizing
the Finance Director to dispense with bidding therefore, not to exceed $145,000.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of resolution.
BACKGROUND: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has mandated that as of
December 31, 2012, all radio licensees in those bands below 512 MHz operate their radio
channels in the new narrowband configuration of 12.5 KHz bandwidth. Police, Fire, Public Works,
and Water radio channels fall within that spectrum.
The existing Motorola radio infrastructure equipment permits Police, Fire, and Public Works
personnel to communicate over radio channels, It was purchased and installed between 1988
and 1996 and is not capable of the narrowband operation mandated by the FCC. All City
mobile, portable, and base station radios must be compatible with Motorola infrastructure
equipment.
The upgrade process began in FY06 /07 and is being completed in incremental phases.
Sufficient funds are budgeted to purchase this equipment.

SUBJECT: Resolution determining that Bioxide, a proprietary chemical for sewer odor
control and reduction of sulfide gas levels, cannot be reasonably obtained
through the usual bidding procedures and authorizing the Finance Director to
dispense with bidding thereof for a period of one (1) year, not to exceed the
budgeted amount of $800,000. (City Wide)
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of Resolution.
BACKGROUND: Some areas of Southwest, Northwest and Northeast Bakersfield experience
continuing odor problems from the sewer trunk lines thus creating a nuisance to residents and
businesses. Nuisance odors are a violation of the San Joaquin Unified Air Pollution Control
District (District) policies and can be punishable by a fine. The City has previously received a
warning from the District to alleviate the nuisance odors and reduce the high levels of sulfide
gas found in the sewer system, or face a fine by the District. Bioxide has proven itself to be
compatible with the City Wastewater secondary treatment process and is environmentally
sound.
Due to the proprietary nature of Bioxide, and the need to continually inject Bioxide to control
odors in the sewer trunk lines, staff is recommending adoption of the Resolution to dispense
with bidding for Bioxide and authorizing the purchase of Bioxide on a continuing basis in
amounts to meet the City's requirements, not to exceed the budgeted amount of $800,000. If
at any time it is determined that other products or more effective products are available, staff
will re- evaluate the sole source designation of Bioxide and will seek competitive pricing to
insure the best interests of the City are met. Funds for the purchase are in the 2011 -2012
adopted budget within the Wastewater Enterprise Fund.

exceed $100,000.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of Resolution and approval of agreement.
BACKGROUND: A Mark VII Touchless Car Wash has been in use at the City of Bakersfield
Corporation Yard since 1998. The car wash system has an increasing amount of breakdowns
and currently is in need of repair. Staff has determined that replacement of the operating
components of the car wash unit will be more cost effective than purchasing a new system.
The supply and installation of Mark VII car wash equipment must be purchased from the
factory trained distributor for Bakersfield, Banks & Company. Funds for the purchase are in the
FY 2011 -2012 adopted budget within the Equipment Management Fund. The upgrade to the
existing car wash system will extend the life of this heavily used equipment and will continue to
provide service to City vehicles.

Repair and replacement of Mesa Marin Sports Complex water pump station.
Resolution determining that the timely repair and replacement of the water
pump station cannot be reasonably obtained through the usual bidding
procedures and authorizing the Finance Director to dispense with bidding
therefor and request water pump station repair and replacement services from
Kern Sprinkler Landscaping, Inc., not to exceed $102,000.
2. Approve the agreement to repair and replace the water pump station at the
Mesa Marin Sports Complex from Kern Sprinkler Landscaping, Inc. for a total
amount not to exceed $102,000.
3. Appropriate $102,000 Self- Insurance Fund balance to the Self- Insurance
operating budget for the replacement of the water pump station.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends adoption of Resolution and approval of agreement and appropriation.
BACKGROUND:
The water pump station at the Mesa Marin Sports Complex, consisting of a water pump, fire
suppression system, and an irrigation controller, was struck by a vehicle and sustained major
damages. An ongoing water supply is critical to this facility as new turf, trees, and foliage have
recently been planted and a fire suppression system feeds into the pre- fabricated facility. Staff
determined that the timely repair and replacement of the water pump station was critical for this
facility and contacted the original installer of this system, Kern Sprinkler Landscaping, Inc., to
provide these emergency repair services. These services will restore the water pumps to their
original working condition. Funds for the purchase are in the FY 2011 -12 adopted budget within
the Self- Insurance Fund. Kern Sprinkler Landscaping, Inc.'s water pump repair services are not
part of the annual contract held with the City.

1. Resolution declaring real property located west of Union Avenue and north

2. Quitclaim Deed to Hopper Properties, LLC, a California limited liability
company conveying surplus property located west of Union Avenue and north
of Hopper Court (24th Street). (Ward 2)
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends adoption of the resolution and approval of quitclaim.
BACKGROUND:
In November of 2010, the City Council vacated Hopper Court (24th Street) between Union
Avenue West Loop Road to the northern right of way line of the Southern Pacific Railroad. This
was requested by the adjoining property owners, Hopper Properties, LLC, who are currently in the
process of restoring the existing building on the site.
Adjacent to the vacated street is a 2610 square foot parcel (map attached) that was dedicated
to the City by the California Ice and Cold Storage Company (CICS) in 1961. According to the
December 11, 1961 City Council minutes CICS granted the City the "property to be used for 24th
Street - Kentucky Street transition adjacent to Union Avenue ". Then in 1986 the Union Avenue
Overpass Project was constructed and this access to point to Union Avenue was eliminated.
Further, now that Hopper Court has been vacated this area is no longer needed for road way
purposes.
The parcel's small size, triangular configuration, and location severely limit its development
potential. As such, the City has no use for it. So if approved, we would transfer the property
back to Hopper Properties, LLC, the successor in interest to the California Ice and Cold Storage
Company.

Drive Fire Training Facility (City of Bakersfield - County of Kern - Kern Community
College District)
3) License Agreement - Olive Drive Fire Training Facility (City of Bakersfield - County
of Kern - Kern Community College District)
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of all agreements.
BACKGROUND:
The Bakersfield Fire Department and Kern County Fire Department own and operate a joint
training facility called the Olive Drive Fire Training Facility ( ODFTF). The facility is used for firefighter
academies, mandated training, and specialized classes such as hazardous materials and
technical rescue. College credits are earned through Bakersfield College, which supports the
facility through funding for instructors and administrative assistance.
The joint agreements relate solely to the oversight and operation of ODFTF, are separate from,
and have no impact on or direct correlation to the City of Bakersfield budget. The ODFTF joint
agreements will now be reviewed and updated as necessary every five (5) years. The previous
joint agreements were signed on July 10, 2002, and the newly signed agreements will be in effect
until 2016.
There are no substantive changes within the agreements, other than addition of the "License
Agreement" which allows Bakersfield College to lease the physical training facilities from the City
of Bakersfield and County of Kern, as noted below. The lease related funding is allocated back to
the maintenance of ODFTF facilities and other instructional activities as functions of the overall
ODFTF budget.
1) Agreement between the City of Bakersfield, County of Kern, and Bakersfield College for
instructional services between the College District and the City and County Fire Departments and
for each party to collaborate and provide occupational training programs, classes, and training
for college credit at ODFTF, Bakersfield College, and the Weill Institute.

SUBJECT: Design Consultant Agreement with T.Y.Lin International (for an amount not to
exceed $3,550,000.00) for Engineering Design Services for the SR -178 and Morning
Drive Interchange. (Ward 3) MW)
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Agreement.
BACKGROUND: This agreement is for the Engineering Design Services for the SR -178 and Morning
Drive Interchange Project. The project consists of an interchange at SR -178 and Morning Drive
and widening the freeway to four lanes for approximately 1.5 miles from just west or Morning
Drive to the future Vineland Road. In addition, auxiliary lanes will be added between the Fairfax
Road and Morning Drive on and off ramps.
Staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Engineering Design Services for the SR -178 and
Morning Drive Interchange Project. The following seven firms responded to this RFP:
T.Y.LIN International (San Diego, California)
Mark Thomas and Company (Fresno, California)
AECOM (Sacramento, California)
KOA Corporation (Monterey Park, California)
Jacobs (Ontario, California)
Kimley -Horn and Associates (Rancho Cordova, California)
Quincy Engineering, Inc. (Sacramento, California)
Based on a review of their proposals, the selection committee invited the first three firms listed
above to interview with the committee. Based on the rankings of the proposals and the
interviews, T.Y.LIN International was selected as the most qualified to provide engineering design
services for the SR -178 and Morning Drive Interchange Project. In accordance with federal
procurement procedures for these types of services, after T.Y.LIN International was selected, their
cost for providing these services was then negotiated by the Public Works TRIP staff.
Staff is awaiting approval of the Final Environmental Document (FED) by the California
Department of Transportation (Caltrans), which we anticipate will occur shortly. The City will not
provide T.Y.Lin International a Notice to Proceed until the FED has been signed.
Due to the voluminous nature of the exhibits to this agreement, they are on file in the City Clerk's Office for review.

professional services for right -of -way for the 7th Standard Road Widening Project.
(TRIP)
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of the Amendment.
BACKGROUND: The State Department of Transportation (Caltrans) identified Kern County as
the lead agency for the 7th Standard Road Widening Project. As the lead agency, the County
is the only agency able to seek reimbursement through Caltrans from federal Thomas Roads
Improvement Program (TRIP) funds identified for the 7th Standard Road Widening Project. Due
to the timing for the project, the County requested that the City allow Parsons and it's sub -
consultants to perform professional services for right -of -way work for the project, utilizing the
existing agreement the City has with Parsons.
On June 9, 2010 the City and County entered into Reimbursement Agreement 10 -072 to
perform the above mentioned services. This reimbursement agreement allows the City to bill
the County and the County to pay for reimbursement of Parsons' right -of -way work, The
County can then submit these charges to Caltrans for reimbursement from federal TRIP funds
identified for the 7th Standard Road Widening Project.
The County is now requesting this agreement be amended as additional right -of -way work is
required in the vicinity of Mustang Way and 7th Standard Road.
Staff recommends approval of this Amendment.

Project (Ward 6).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of amendment.
BACKGROUND: Agreement No. 04 -214 awarded the contract to provide design engineering
services for the expansion of Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 3 to Parsons Water and
Infrastructure. Amendment No. 6 to this Agreement added design services for the Solar Energy
Project at Plant 3.
Parsons continues to support the wastewater operation process and assists in resolving
operational problems related to the Plant 3 Expansion Project. Compensation limits for this
phase of work is nearly exhausted. The solar energy project is near completion and Parsons
has minimal work left on the project. Over $70,000 of compensation remains for this phase of
work. Staff recommends the transfer of $60,000 from the "Solar Energy Project" phase of work
to the "Plant 3 Expansion" phase of work. The transfer of funds will allow Parsons to continue
providing support for wastewater staff and help resolve operational problems related to the
Plant 3 Expansion Project.
This amendment does not increase the compensation limits for this Agreement. This proposed
amendment transfers $60,000 from the "Solar Energy Project" phase of work to the "Plant 3

SUBJECT: Amendment No. 1 to Assignment Agreement No. 10- 096 /RA 10 -008 with the City of
Bakersfield for use of federal HOME Investment Partnership Funds ($250,000 for an
amount not to exceed $1,550,000) for an affordable housing project located at the
19th Street Senior Plaza Project, (Ward 2)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval.
BACKGROUND:
During the last few years the City of Bakersfield and the Bakersfield Redevelopment Agency has
committed various funding sources for the 191h Street Senior Project including $3.65 million in
Redevelopment low -mod housing and $1.3 million in HOME funds to construct 67 units of senior
rental housing in a three -story structure. Another part of the project includes a two level 145
space parking structure funded with $1.9 million in Prop 1 C and $500,000 in tax increment funds.
Due to the economics of the project and conditions associated with the bank financing, it is
necessary to add $250,000 to the $1.3 million in HOME funds for a total of $1,550,000 and enables
the Agency to administer the City's $1.55 million federal HOME Investment Partnership funds as
part of the financing for constructing the 67 affordable multi - family unit project.
The attached sub - recipient agreement will serve as an assignment function whereby the City will
allow the Redevelopment Agency to administer the project, ensuring that the project will be built
and that affordable housing will be provided as previously described, HUD regulations require
the commitment of these funds through a contractual agreement to either a developer or a sub -
recipient entity over the course of two funding years. The funds must be expended within five
years.
Subsequently, the Redevelopment Agency will be asked to execute this agreement with the City
at its August, 2011 meeting. The Agency would assume the oversight responsibility for the use of
the $1.55 million in federal HOME funds and agree to comply with HUD mandated regulations in
the administration of the project and assure affordable housing will be provided,

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
The net effect of these items is an increase of $26,118.16. Since the contractor's original bid
did not provide for these items, a change order is required.
This is the first and final change order to be submitted for this project. This change order will
increase the project total by $26,118.16 (which results in an increase of less than 0.5% of the
original contract amount) as illustrated below:
• Original Contract Amount = $5,359,018.00
• Amended Contract Agreement after Change Orders = $5,385,136.16
Net Increase to date = $26,118.16
Sufficient funds are budgeted to fund this Change Order. There is no General Fund impact
associated with this Change Order.

SUBJECT: Contract Change Order Nos. 1 through 3 to Agreement No. 11 -035 with
GSE Construction, Inc. ($245,018; revised not to exceed $4,933,018) for the
Wastewater Treatment Plant 2 Septage /Grease Receiving Station and
Odor Control Project (Ward 1).
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Contract Change Order.
BACKGROUND: This project provides for the installation of a grease and septage receiving
station and odor control measures at Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2.
Contract Change Order No. 1 provides for costs incurred due to a project delay. After the
contractor had mobilized on the project and during the initial survey, it was discovered that
several existing pipelines and structures were not in the area located on the plans. As a result,
work on the project had to stop until additional survey and design work could be completed.
The contractor has agreed to accept a lump sum of $25,974 as full compensation for the costs
caused by this delay in the project. An cost analysis is on file.
Contract Change Order No. 2 provides for the Contractor to purchase, install, and program
the equipment necessary interface with the existing SCADA system. This equipment was
originally to be provided by the City; however, there was no cost savings benefit if purchased
by the City and there would have been a time delay for installation. The contractor has
agreed to accept a lump sum of $154,611 for these items.
Contract Change Order No. 3 provides for a change in the manufacturer of the septage
processing equipment. After the award of the contract, it was discovered that the septage
processing equipment produced by Lakeside, a specified manufacturer, would not interface
with the specified " Port-A- Logic" software. As such, the contractor will have to procure this
equipment from Huber Technology. This change in manufacturers will result in a cost increase
of $64,433.
The net cost increase of Contract Change Orders 1 through 3 is $245,018 (which is an increase
of 5.0% of the original contract amount) as illustrated below:
• Original Contract Amount = $4,688,000.00
• Amended Contract Agreement after Change Orders = $4,933,018.00
Net Increase to date = $ 245,018.00

BACKGROUND: Invitations to bid were sent to over two hundred (200) suppliers of automated

The low bid, submitted by Amrep, Incorporated, did not meet minimum specifications for the

required hydraulic lifting mechanism. The City has used chain driven units in the past and
found they loosened and required excessive maintenance which is costly and results in down
time for the refuse trucks. The second lowest bid submitted by Refuse Power Systems meets
minimum specifications and is considered acceptable by staff.
Funds are available in the Equipment Replacement Fund for the purchase of two (2)
replacement automated refuse bodies. The bodies to be replaced have become
unserviceable due to extensive down time and high repair costs. The existing truck cab and

Accept bid and approve contract to Raminha Construction, Inc. ($3,368,908.00)
for construction of Bakersfield City Sanitary Landfill Final Closure. (Ward 3)
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends acceptance of low bid and approval of contract.
BACKGROUND: The City's landfill was covered with soil when it ceased operations in 1983. At
the time, the cover soil met state regulations for one agency but not another. Over the years,
the regulations have been clarified and it became apparent that additional soil cover was
needed. A final closure plan was developed and fully approved by the state.
Construction will include clearing the existing vegetation, adjusting grades in some areas,
placement of a final 3' thick layer of engineered soil on 85 acres, followed by reseeding for
erosion control. Soil will be obtained from the site and from a nearby site where excess soil
prevents development of Paladino Drive east of Fairfax Road. Construction will begin in
September, and the project will last about 60 weeks.
The City solicited contractors for the construction of the landfill cap through our Responsibility

SUBJECT: Appointment of Voting Delegate for 2011 League of California Cities Annual Conference
RECOMMENDATION:
Appointment of Vice -Mayor David Couch as the City's Voting Delegate.
BACKGROUND:
Each year, as a component of the City's membership in the League of California Cities, the City Council
appoints a Voting Delegate to represent the City's position on resolutions at the annual business
meeting of the League's Annual Conference. This year's annual conference will be held September 21-
23, 2011 at the Moscone West Convention Center in San Francisco. The annual business meeting,
during which the proposed resolutions will be considered, will be held on Friday, September 23`d.
The voting appointees have traditionally been recommended for Council approval by the Legislative
and Litigation Committee. However, since the Committee did not meet in July, Committee Chair
Benham requested that staff forward the recommendation for the 2011 conference voting delegate
directly to the City Council for consideration and approval.
As of 2011, Bakersfield is now designated as one of the ten largest cities in California, which gives us a
membership on the League Board of Directors. As the Mayor's appointed representative, Vice -Mayor
Couch will also be attending the quarterly Board of Directors' meeting that will be held during the 2011
Annual Conference.
Staff will review the proposed resolutions and provide comments to the City Council at the September
14, 2011 meeting.

SUBJECT: Ward Reapportionment
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends Council discuss and give direction to staff.
BACKGROUND:
APPROVED
DEPARTMENT HEAD
CITY ATTORNEY )W
CITY MANAGER S
The Charter of the City of Bakersfield states that the city shall be divided into seven
political subdivisions, which shall be known as Wards, and they shall reflect as nearly as
possible, equal populations.
The decennial census is used under state and federal law for apportionment of political
districts. In March 2011, the federal census released the 2010 population results for
California and Bakersfield's official population was listed at 347,483. In accordance with
the Charter, the population in each Ward should have equal populations of 49,460.
Since the last reapportionment in 2006, the city has grown by over 42,000 people,
predominantly in the northwest and southwest areas. Therefore, most Ward populations
now vary significantly either above or below the desired average (see table below):

Average Ward population = 49,640
ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Reapportionment of the Ward boundaries is to accomplish equality of population, as
closely as possible, to ensure adherence to the one - person, one -vote doctrine. Deviation
from the average population for each Ward is acceptable if reasonably based upon
certain criteria (ie. topography; geography; cohesiveness, contiguity, integrity, and
compactness of Ward territory; and community interests within the Ward). Case law has
established that as a general rule, a deviation of 0 - 5% is construed as very reasonable, a
deviation of up to 10% can occur without formal justification, a deviation of 10% - 16.4%
can occur only if formal justification based on the criteria is established, and a deviation
above 16.4% is intolerable. In the event any challenge to a reapportionment is filed, the
City Council's adoption of legislative findings regarding criteria used to establish the
reapportionment would be extremely beneficial to support a defense. Such findings,
when combined with existing case law, would provide a position that a deviation of 0 -
5% would be very defensible. As the deviation increases, the potential for challenge
increases.
Staff has developed a computer - generated process using GIS to move areas as small as
census blocks from one Ward to another and automatically recalculate Ward
populations, including the number and percentage deviation from average. This allows
multiple Ward balancing options to be easily produced with results that can be instantly
viewed on a map.
Staff has provided three different maps that balance Ward populations within the 5%
deviation threshold. None of these alternatives are being recommended for adoption at
this time. They are only being provided to give you a starting point to explore various
options so that over the next few months, a final reapportionment can be adopted
before the next Ward election, which occurs in late 2012.

Proposal to Create a Housing Incentive Task Force
CITY ATTORNE'
CITY MANAGE
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Council determination.
BACKGROUND: At the regular meeting of the City Council on June 29, 2011, the City
Council voted 6 -1 to ratify the Majority Report of the Planning and Development Committee,
which was to not provide a General Fund subsidy to new home buyers.
Councilmember Weir then asked that the Vice Mayor consider establishing a task force that
would specifically focus on what can happen to stimulate and prod the building of new homes
in our community.
For several months prior to June 29, 2011, the Planning and Development Committee met to
consider several variations of how fee reductions might be used to spur housing construction.
Those ideas were not carried forward for two main reasons: 1) The subsidy could not total
enough to offset the difference in cost between foreclosure /short sales and the cost of new
homes; and, 2) The City had already prevailed in a legal challenge to its fees, and was using
the validated fees to defend against three other lawsuits.
There may be other methods to look at ways to stimulate the housing market. Some of them
follow below:
At the June 29, 2011 meeting, Donna Carpenter raised the question of "transferring some
of the permit fees to the property taxes." That subject had also arisen earlier in
Committee deliberations. A memorandum from Finance Director Nelson Smith is
attached on that subject. Please note that there are certain complexities related to this
concept.
• City staff conducted an internet search of alternatives to a fee -based housing stimulus
program. A copy of that report is attached. The programs are nearly all similar to the
proposal that did not receive approval by the City Council on June 29, 2011.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
Staff notes that during the time adoption of the current traffic impact fees was being
considered, City staff recommended a 10% economic recovery period discount. That
proposal passed the nexus test because fees were to be raised adequately in future
years to fully recover the lost revenues. Kern County believed, however, that the
discount was illegal. In order to have a common fee, the City dropped the proposal.
The joint City- County fee is what will survive the legal challenge. The County could be
approached again to see if their view of the matter has changed.
The City adopted a one -year extension of final maps as an economic incentive. The
State legislature recently authorized another two -year extension of vested maps.
A Housing Incentive Task Force may envision possible incentives beyond those considered by
the Planning and Development Committee, or those items mentioned in this administrative
report.
Staff would respectfully request that such a task force not restudy the ideas recently considered
and rejected by the Planning and Development Committee and City Council.
mm
The Vice Mayor may nominate the members of a Task Force for City Council confirmation.
The City Council may consider a time limit for such a task force to report back to the City
Council, if created.
The City Council may have other ideas, recommendations or guidance to provide relative to
the task force.
