This project consists of furnishing and installing a pump and motor for Well 23. The specifications included provisions for analyzing the bids based on an analysis of future power costs. The 10 bids received from 5 contractors are shown below. The most efficient pump is the Ingersoll-Rand proposed by Zim Industries. The difference between the low bid (Noack, $19,923) and Zim ($21,225) is $1,302. However, the more efficient pump will save $2,000 within approximately 3 years and more afterwards. The Ingersoll-Rand pump is slightly over the 125 -horsepower specified. The amount is less than 1% and is well within the safety factor of the motor, thus staff recommended the discrepancy be waived.

The cost of the poles for 60KV line, $64,835.96, is within the scope of the overall funding for the Industrial Substation project. The balance of the cost, for the poles placed in inventory, is $10,798.22, and represents about one-fifth of the recommended 1989/90 Overhead System Maintenance equipment budget. Delivery is estimated to be about 12 weeks after placement of order. ITEM REMOVED FROM Agenda item E-7 - "Purchase of 954KCM Bare all -aluminum CONSENT CALENDAR conductor" was removed from the consent calendar and discussed and acted upon under the Regular Calendar. PURCHASE OF MOBILE RADIO UNITS APPROVED RES. NO. 89-114 CC -12(d) The City Council adopted Resolution No. 89-114 awarding the CC -300 purchase of eighteen (16 & 2) mobile radio units to Motorola Communications and Electronics, Inc., the sole supplier, in the amount of $25,472. The City Council was advised that the Electric Utility Department has operated a mobile radio communications system on a frequency assigned to the Department in the utility band for over twenty years. All major components as well as some mobile units of this system have been replaced with "state of the art" equipment in the last four years. At present, the Department has 16 mobile radios of a vintage (tube type) where reliability is questionable, maintenance costs and parts' availability make them obsolete and the design does not permit utilization of important features attainable in the already upgraded system such as private line, talk around and vehicle -to -vehicle call up. Since Motorola is the only manufacturer that can supply a radio unit capable of interfacing with and utilizing features in the existing system, it is recommended that Motorola be awarded the purchase. The Department has negotiated a favorable price with the manufacturer for this purchase. The two additional units recommended for purchase at this time will replace a telephone line link to the answering service, thus eliminating telephone line costs. The pay -back period is less than three years. Funding for this purchase has been included in the Department's 1989-90 fiscal year budget. PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS FOR ELM STREET PARKING LOT APPROVED CC -12.1(c) The City Council approved the plans and specifications for Elm Street Parking Lot, 207 and 211 West Elm Street and authorized advertising for bids.

The parking lot will be used by City employees and County court jurors. Continued September 6, 1989 The City recently purchased the property and contacted San Joaquin County regarding participation in the project. The County Administrator agreed to provide $80,000 toward the construction cost. The City will construct and maintain the parking lot and retain ownership. SPECIFICATIONS FOR TREE TRIMMING CONTRACT (POWER LINE CLEARING) APPROVED CC -12.1(c) The City Council approved the specifications for a tree trimming contract for power line clearing and authorized advertisement for bids thereon. The bid opening date has been set for September 26, 1989. The Electric Utility Department has utilized a tree trimming contractor for the majority of its line clearing requirements during the 1988-89 fiscal year period. The favorable results obtained from utilizing a contractor for this necessary electric utility function support continuation of line clearing in this fashion. In order to maintain continuity in the line clearing program, the specifications have been prepared with an option to extend the agreement on a year-to-year basis, at the City's sole discretion, for a maximum of three (3) years. Funding for the line clearing during the 1989-90 fiscal year period has been included in the Department's operating budget. Funding for extensions of the contract will be budgeted on a year-to-year basis. . ACCEPTANCE OF IMPROVEMENTS UNDER CARNEGIE FORUM LANDSCAPE AND SPRINKLER PROJECT, 305 WEST PINE STREET, CONTRACT APPROVED CC -90 The City Council accepted the improvements for "Carnegie Forum Landscape and Sprinkler Project, 305 West Pine Street", and directed the Public Works Director to file a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder's office.

The contract includes a 90 -day maintenance period which is covered by a separate bid item ($3,000). The acceptance and Notice of Completion only covers the new construction work. ACCEPTANCE OF IMPROVEMENTS UNDER CARNEGIE FORUM HARDSCAPE, 305 WEST PINE STREET, CONTRACT APPROVED CC -90 The City Council accepted the improvements for "Carnegie Forum Hardscape, 305 West Pine Street" and directed the Public Works Director to file a Notice of Completion with the County Recorder's office.

The contract has been completed in substantial conformance with the plans and specifications approved by the City Council. Continued September 6, 1989 The contract and the actual completion date was July 21, 1989. The final contract price was $44,974.60. The difference between the contract amount and the final contract price is mainly due to additional sidewalk, brick and retaining wall at the east entrance needed to match existing grades and work at the north side to accomodate the picnic tables. The Lodi City Employees Association donated $4,575.00 for the purchase of the tables and installation of the additional concrete pad and brick edging.

The lease, which was assigned to the City as part of the purchase agreement for the additional 270 acres purchased for the expansion of the White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility, will expire at midnight on November 14, 1989. In order to give the farmers who are interested in leasing this property sufficient time to prepare for planting, we would like to advertise for bids for the lease at this time. The term of the new lease would be November 15, 1989 through December 31, 1993, with an option to renew. This lease covers only the agricultural land recently purchased for the expansion project. There are no buildings involved on this property. The existing house site would not be part of the lease agreement. The intent is to have all the White Slough leases on the same cycle. 1989-90 TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT CLAIM RES. NO. 89-115 CC -7(f) The City Council adopted Resolution No. 89-115 approving CC -7(n) the City's 1989-90 Transportation Development Act, "TDA", CC -300 claim for local transportation funds, %TF", and State 491 Continued September 6, 1989 Transit Assistance, "STA", and authorized the City Manager to sign on behalf of the City. The City's 1989-90 TDA claim requests all of the LTF apportionment which amounts to $987,890 and the STA apportionment which is $4,927. It is estimated that we will be using approximately $325,000 of LTF and all of the STA money for the Dial -a -Ride system. Included in this amount is the purchase of replacement vehicles in the amount of $76,500. TDA funds are used in conjunction with other street funds for the transportation improvement program and maintenance of our streets. This claim includes work in progress projects as well as street projects that are expected to be included in the capital improvement plan which will use the LTF. Showing these projects on our claim allows us the flexibility to use TDA funds. It does not approve these projects for construction. The pedestrian and bicycle apportionment, $19,305.00, will be on the City sidewalk upgrading program together with other funds. Since this project includes pedestrian safety, it meets the requirements of this portion of the claim. AMENDED SALARIES FOR PART-TIME, TEMPORARY AND SEASONAL EMPLOYEES APPROVED EFFECTIVE SEPTEMBER 18, 1989 RES. NO. 89-116 CC -34 The City Council adopted Resolution No. 89-116 amending the CC -300 salaries of part-time, temporary and seasonal employees effective September 18, 1989.

NO. 89-119 CC -50(b) The City Council adopted Resolution No. 89-119 approving CC -90 adjustment of the Dial -A -Ride subsidy as follows: CC -300 $3.10 for trips in Lodi $3.75 for trips to and from Woodbridge and Acampo The City Council was advised that the last time a rate increase was granted to City Cab Company for Dial -A -Ride services waF in 1986. The increase in ridership has not kept pace with the increase in costs. As the City has added vehicles to reduce delays, the costs to provide service has increased. The drivers and dispatchers for City Cab have not received a salary increase in a number of years. In order to further reduce delays City Cab is planning to hire a second dispatcher during the peak periods of the day. In order to accomplish this it was recommended that the reimbursement rate set forth above be established for City Cab Company. SUBMITTAL OF GRANT APPLICATION TO STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOR ROBERTI-Z-BERG-HARP.IS URBAN AND RECREATION GRANT FUNDING FOR BLAKLEY PARK APPROVED RES. NO. 89-120 CC -7(f) The City Council adopted Resolution No. 89-120 approving CC -175 the submittal of a grant application to the State of CC -40 California for a Roberti -Z'berg-Harris Urban Open Space CC -300 and Recreation Grant for Blakely Park. The City Council was advised that at its August 1, 1969 meeting the Lodi Parks & Recreation Commission voted to -' recommend that the Council submit a grant application for improvements to Blakely Park. Roberti-Z'berg-Harris grants are awarded on a competitive basis to jurisdictions which provide basic park and recreation opportunities in areas serving the greatest need. These grants are intended to supplement, not replace local funds. If fui•ding is awarded, the State will provide 70% of the costs of the project. The State will advance 10% of the funds for the preparation of construction drawings, and after work has begun the applicant may submit a grant request for up to 90% of the grant amount. Improvements to Blakely Park will include the relocation of the wading pool from the playground equipment area to the southeast corner of the pool; the construction of a picnic shelter east of the pool over the existing tables and pad; the construction of an additional basketball court; and the replacement of the existing outfield fence surrounding the eastern ballfield. These projects have been selected for completion because they will improve and replace existing facilities, provide multiple recreation activities and have an impact outside the boundaries of the park service area. Accordingly, staff requested that the City Council consider adopting the resolution, enabling the Parks & Recreation Department to apply for the grant while reaffirming its commitment to enhance the outdoor recreational needs of its citizens. 493' Continued September 6, 1989 CC -35 The Planning Commission - 1989-90 TO 1993-94 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM CC -15 1.

The City Council was reminded that it had requested that a physical fitness program for department heads be explored. The City Council was advised that the City has had a physical fitness program in the Fire Department for the last two years. The results of that program have been quite satisfactory in reducing lost time injuries and sickness. Staff proposed a program modeled after the one in the Fire Department and to have that program administered by St. Joseph's Fitness Center. The program would consist of three essential parts: 1. Health Risk Analysis 2. Fitness Assessment 3. Exercise Program The health risk analysis is an individualized computer interpretation to predict tfie relative risk of coronary-artery disease by evaluatinc; stress levels, exercise patterns, personal habits, family history, body fat, blood chemistry, blood pressure, age, weight, and pulse rate. The program estimates change in risk if appropriate life style changes occur. The fitness assessment is designed to interpret the individual's cardiovascular fitness level, body strength and flexibility and a recommended exercise prescription with recommended goals. The third phase of the program is to provide the facilities to exercise. The Lodi City Employees' Association has a corporate membership at Twin Arbors Athletic Club which offers a discount rate to City employees. The cost of an individual membership is $40 per month. In order to assure the employee is serious and committed, it was recommended he/she have a financial stake in the program. It was suggested the employee pay for membership in an athletic club and if he/she maintains the program outlined in the fitness assessment, the City would reimburse the employee one-half the cost of the membership dues. Such amount not to exceed $20 per month. The cost for the program would be as follows: Annual Health Basic Analysis $ 35 Semi -Annual Fitness Assessment 80 Dues for 12 Months 240 Total 355 The program would be voluntary on the part of the employee. If all management employees participate, the annual cost of the program would be $4,970. The City fully supports this concept and urged the Council to approve the program and appropriate $5,000 in the Workers' Compensation Fund to fund the program for the first year. Speaking in opposition to the proposed program was Kathleen Van Nostern, 637 Joaquin Street, Lodi. 4Ag" Continued September 6, 1989 / Speaking in favor of the program was Phil Pennino, 1802 Reisling Drive, Lodi A lengthy discussion followed with questions regarding the proposed program being directed to staff.
