DESCRIPTION: In October of 1987, the City Council awarded Contract 87-8 to Ambo Engineering, Inc. The project consisted of widening a portion of Dublin Boulevard at Clark Avenue to allow for emergency parking, space for bicycles, and for an eastbound-to-westbound U-turn. During the course of construction, several problems occurred which were related both to heavy rains and the fact that the contractor hit a number of utility lines during the demolition phase, leading to a delay of timely completion of the job. At the request of the Dublin San Ramon Services District, the City Engineer authorized additional water service work and relocation of a fire hydrant. This work is in the amount of $4,227.66, and will be billed directly to DSRSD. The $100.00 payment was part of the right-of-way settlement and was for the AAA's landscape maintenance contractor to make adjustments to their system. The City Engineer has reviewed the work and determined that it is complete and in accordance with the approved plans, specifications, and modifications. Staff recommends that the City Council accept the improvements and authorize final pa)~ent to Ambo Engineering in the amount of $3,821.31.

Snyder requested that the item related to the Tri-Valley Community Television Corporation be removed from the consent calendar for discussion. ~-m. Snyder questioned why the figure of $19,800 is being revised. Even hough it is only a $200 difference, Dublin calculated the amount based on a formula. Assistant to the City Manager Rankin indicated that during the budget process, Community TV requested an amount substantially higher than the figure of $19,800. Dublin was the first City to act on their request and allocated this amount and now they have indicated that all Cities will be contributing the same amount. Cm. Hegarty felt that Cm. Snyder's remarks were well taken. We were the first to commit any money. We are the smallest City and receive the smallest portion of service and we narrowed it down to what we felt we should pay. If the formula was followed, the other Cities would be paying their fair share. $200 is not a lot of money, but it is the principle of the matter. Cm. Hegarty indicated he had no problem going either way. He felt it should be noted, however, that the Council discussed it and Community Television should be advised that Dublin calculated its contribution based on the formula. On motion of Cm. Snyder, seconded by Cm. Hegarty, and by unanimous vote, the Council approved an increase in Dublin's contribution to the Tri-Valley Community Television Corporation Operating Budget from $19,800 to $20,000; authorized a Budget Transfer from the City's Contingent Reserve in the amount of $200; and authorized Staff to contribute the $55,000 in Capital Equipment Funds upon request from the Corporation.
