PURCHASE OF MOTOROLA RADIO SYSTEM FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT RESOLUTION NO. 91-13 CC -12(d) The City Council adopted Resolution No. 91-13 approving the CC -300 purchase of a radio communications system for the Fire Department from Motorola Communications in the amount of $84,229.74. 4 Continued February 6, 1991 The 1990/91 City budget includes $100,000 for replacement of a major part of the Fire Department's existing radio system with a newer communications system incorporating more up-to-date technology. The existing equipment is a combination of radios purchased in 1965, and radios handed down by the Police Department when it has purchased new equipment. The existing system has severe limitations in situations where clear and reliable emergency communications are required. Many of the existing units can no longer be repaired due to unavailability of parts, and the Department is suffering from greater amounts of system down-time due to delays in equipment repairs. The existing base station and dispatch console are Motorola units, and they are not being replaced. Therefore, compatibility with existing equipment is critical to ensure superior operation. Further, Motorola radios are currently used by departments throughout the City, and purchase of Motorola radios for replacement of the Fire Department's system will ensure compatibility, and provide for use of one local contract repair facility for all system repairs. Lodi Municipal Code Section 3.20.070 allows for the bid process to be waived when doing so is deemed to be in the best interest of the City. Because of the need for compatibility in the City's communications system, it is recommended that the Motorola system be purchased under that waiver.

For the last two years, we have used Zambelli Internationale Fireworks Manufacturing Co., Inc. in presenting our Fourth of July celebration and fireworks show. This year we have asked for a request for proposals from both Zambelli and Pyro Spectaculars, Inc. These proposals have been received and evaluated. Listed below is a summary of what the number of shells each provider will fire for us. You will note that Zambelli offers many more of the larger shells. Because of this, we are getting a comparable number of shells with a much better show from Zambelli. The large shells go higher and explode much wider than the smaller shells. Pyro Spectaculars is able to compete in the number of shells only by including 100 - 2-1/2" shells which would be a low bursting shell but could only be seen by viewers that are actually at the lake.

The streets to be accepted are as follows: STREETS LENGTH IN MILES Wellswood Court 0.03 miles TOTAL NEW MILES OF CITY STREETS 0.03 miles TRAFFIC RESOLUTION AMENDMENT - WEST SIDE OF PACIFIC AVENUE AT LODI HIGH SCHOOL - PARKING MODIFICATION RESOLUTION NO. 91-26 CC -48(a) The City Council adopted Resolution No. 91-26 approving the CC -300 parking modifications on the west side of Pacific Avenue at Lodi High School and amending Traffic Resolution 87-163 as necessary. The Public Works Department has received a letter from the School District requesting that the existing parking on Pacific Avenue be modified in order to relieve congestion and increase student safety in front of the school. The District's request is to eliminate on -street parking at the south end of the school at all times. They have identified this area as a problem location because students congregate there during the day when the buses arrive and at night during social activities. They feel the elimination of on -street parking will allow the faculty to better supervise this area. The proposed modification would eliminate 3 vehicle and 9 motorcycle all -day parking stalls. The school administrators have indicated that the removal of these stalls will not cause a problem because there is more than enough available parking in the existing parking lot. In addition to the elimination of these all -day parking stalls, the existing restricted parking (no parking 6:30 AM to 4:30 PM, school days only, buses excepted) will be modified to provide a 248' section for buses only and a 118' section for passenger loading and unloading. The bus zone will accommodate five 40 -foot buses and the passenger loading zone will accommodate 5 to 6 stopped vehicles. The City's policy is to charge the School District for modifications made to existing markings. We have notified 15 Continued February 6, 1991 the District and they have agreed to pay the cost of the modification which is $915.00. Staff has reviewed the District's request and we feel that the proposed parking modifications should solve the problems the District has identified as long as enforcement can be provided. Also, the removal of on -street parking should not create a problem due to available parking in the existing lot. For these reasons, staff recommended the approval of this parking modification. PURCHASE AGREEMENT FOR SOUTH CHURCH STREET RIGHT-OF-WAY APPROVED CC -27(a) The City Council authorized the City Manager and City Clerk CC -90 to approve the right-of-way agreement for 1773 South Church Street.

In exchange for the property, the City will install curb, gutter, and sidewalk along the frontage of the property; the street structural section, including paving; the sanitary sewer tap; pay the connection fee and sanitary sewer reimbursement fee; and upgrade the existing water service. In addition to the improvements, the property owner will receive $3,856. The compensation is based on the City's appraisals with the estimated value of the improvements deducted from the total appraised amount of the property. The installation of the improvements along the front property line is the property owners' responsibility. There is one more parcel left to acquire in the 1700 block of South Church Street.

According to our agreement either party can request termination of the contract by giving sixty days notice. There is a year remaining on the current contract. Ms. Field indicated that she contacted the San Joaquin County Health Department to have the stands at the Complex and Armory reviewed for compliance with current food standards. She then plans to contact the BOBS organization to see if they would be interested in operating these two stands for the coming year to assist with their fundraising efforts to support youth sports. If they choose not to operate the stands, a decision must be made of whether to look for a new concessionaire or consider having the Parks and Recreation Department operate the concession stand. The Health Department has again reviewed the Lodi Lake stand and given us a lengthy list of corrections required prior to reopening this summer. Records show the low volume of use of the concession stand by people using the Lake. It is staff's recommendation not to reopen the concession stand at Lodi Lake. Staff, including the Park 22 Continued February 6, 1991 Rangers and nature people, request we use the concession building as information/interpretive center and small meeting place for local groups. Funding for the building conversion would in part come from the Lake budget, docent fundraising, and possibly service club funding. Set forth below is a list of possible uses for the facility. Ms. Field indicated that we will do our best to try and make any improvements internally and create volunteer enthusiasm to assist with labor and operations. We have assigned part-time Park Ranger Barbara Brown, currently serving as our interpretive ranger, to develop various programs/ volunteers which will center and work out of this building; i.e., junior ranger program, docent walk volunteers, nature tours, summer nature forum, small nature exhibits, etc. Barbara is a very enthusiastic and energetic person --seeing a need and doing something about it. She's the right person at the right time for this newfound interest in our Lake park and the nature and environmental concerns of our citizens. 1. Information Center - Rules and regulations concerning the use of all parks, what each park has to offer, and any special activities and/or upcoming events. 2. Interpretive Center for the Nature Area - To display nature and a little history of Lodi and local surrounding in conjunction with Ralph Lea of the San Joaquin Historical Society. 3. Learning Center for School Field Trips - A place where children and adults can learn with "hands on" experience. The Center will also be accessible to the handicapped. Display cases will be low in height. 4. Docent's Headquarters - Home base for the Docents. Docents will man the center on a voluntary basis. 5. Junior Ranger Headquarters - Home base for junior ranger activities. 6. Meeting Place for Small Groups - Small groups who have priority to give nature and/or ecology functions. 7. Small Library - Information books pertaining to Lodi Lake, birds, wildlife, endangered species, California Indians, etc. (of a nature subject). 8. Small Workshop - We could set up out on the patio or inside for a small group (37 est.) who would like to learn about plants, Indian basketmaking, nature classes, bird watching, etc. 23 Continued February 6, 1991 3j'k, X 9. Wall Display - These would be under glass, things from the nature area, such as a gall display (18 different kinds of galls - what each one is and what made it). Bird nests, plants, animals from a taxidermist, artifacts. 10. Bring in Revenue - We can do this by selling duck food, nature literature, anything doing with nature, workshops, survival in nature, food from plants, what the Indians ate, how they made medicine from plants. You can go on and on. 11. Culture Center - When we have our special people theme for each month, we can display crafts, art, literature, beliefs, dress, food, pictures or homes, anything to do with that group of people (see theme list). This should address our most current happenings concerning concession operations and the Lake park building use. The Parks and Recreation Commission is in full support of this request. Following discussion with questions being directed to Ms. Field, the City Council, on motion of Mayor Pro Tempore Pinkerton, Sieglock second, approved the cancellation of the concession contract with Barry Jacobs for the Lodi Lake Concession Building and approved the use of the subject building as an information/interpretive center.
