He advised that the City Clerk would draw the names at random and each candidate would be given about 5 minutes to speak and then the Council could ask questions. The Council discussed the procedures and determined that each individual would be given a specific time limit to address the Council. Mayor Houston stated it was his intention that if a person is selected that they be sworn in immediately. Fourteen individuals completed and submitted applications to the City Clerk by the deadline of 5:00 p.m., December 22, 1994. All applicants were sent a copy of the Staff Report along with a letter advising them that the Council would be conducting the interviews at this meeting. The City Clerk placed the names of the applicants in an envelope and randomly drew the names in the order that they were to be interviewed by the Council. 1) Gloria Husick/Hoxsie 4) Timothy Sheckler (Not Present) 7) Nancy Anne White 10) Karen Jacobs 13) George Zika 2) Lisbeth Howard 5) Ralph Hughes 8) Betty Heller 11) Bill Foster 14) Janet Lockhart 3) Ma~orie LaBar 6 ) Tony Oravetz 9) Bob Fasulkey 12) Lorri Faile Cm. Burton stated he had gotten a number of calls from people wanting to know how Ms. Lockhart could serve on the Chamber and be on the City Council. There might be issues that involve businesses that are not necessarily Chamber members. Ms. Lockhart stated she looked at the Chamber as being a helping hand to the City. She felt the Chamber's goals and the City's goals are pretty much the same. She explained that if it were to be a stumbling block to the community, she would view a position on the City Council as being more of a commitment on her part than being ***************************************************************************************************** I CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 27,1994 ". Page 369 e e President of the Chamber of Commerce. If would not be difficult to fill the position of President on the Chamber Board. It's more of a "glory perk" that was given to her after having worked on the Board for 7 years. She stated she was prepared to resign as President if she is selected. Cm. Moffatt expressed concerns over what might be perceived as a conflict of interest on the part of Janet Lockhart. He felt she was jeopardizing the position of President of the Chamber. She has control over the money they make and the decisions they make, etc. He felt there was a hugh conflict of interest. Mayor Houston stated members of the Council are all members of various clubs and stated he did not see where any conflict existed in any way whatsoever. He asked Ms. Silver to comment. Cm. Moffatt pointed out that he is not an officer of the Lions Club and Mayor Houston is not an officer of the Rotary Club. They would have to abstain from discussion over any item involving the clubs if they were on the Board. City Attorney Silver stated as a Board member or an officer of a non-profit corporation, she would have to disqualify herself from participating in or taking any action where the City was contemplating entering into a contract with the Chamber of Commerce. She would have to disclose it and disqualify herself. The same would be true if any other Council members were members of a Board and the City was contemplating entering into a contract with one of those organizations. Mayor Houston pointed out that in the past, members of the Council have served on the Board of the Dublin Fine Arts Foundation and have had to abstain from voting. He did not feel this had caused any problems. Ms. Lockhart stated as President, she does not even have a vote. She does not lead the discussions and only votes if there is a tie. Tom McCormick stated as a member of the DSRSD Board, he supported Janet Lockhart. Joellen King spoke in favor of Lisbeth Howard. Leslie Roe spoke in favor of Janet Lockhart. A man who did not identify himself for the record spoke in favor of Janet Lockhart. Bill Brownell spoke in favor of Janet Lockhart. ***************************************************************************************************** , CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 27,1994 -.' Page 370 e e As the next step in the process, each Council member wrote the names of two individuals to participate as finalists. The slips of paper were given to the City Clerk. The City Clerk announced that Mayor Houston selected Janet Lockhart and Bob Fasulkey. Cm. Barnes selected Lisbeth Howard and George Zika. Cm. Burton selected Beth Howard and Janet Lockhart. Cm. Moffatt selected Lisbeth Howard and Ralph Hughes. Cm. Burton brought up the fact that since Lisbeth Howard had gotten 3 votes, she should be appointed. Mayor Houston felt this was just a reduced finalist list and stated he had further questions he wanted to ask the finalists. Mayor Houston asked each of the 5 finalists for their views and positions on several topics, including: 1) City Funding for CTV 30; 2) The Toll Road Concept; 3) Youth Activities; 4) The Need for a Business Commission; 5) Reporting structure of the Heritage Center Advisory Committee; 6) Fireworks Sales in the City; 7) Term Limits. Cm. Burton stated he felt that everybody who appeared was qualified to be on the City Council. Cm. Burton felt that over 3,000 people supported Lisbeth Howard to be on the City Council and for this reason he stated he also supported her. Cm. Barnes expressed her support for Lisbeth Howard. Cm. Moffatt expressed his support for Lisbeth Howard. Mayor Houston stated he agreed there were lots of great candidates. The fact remains that Ms. Howard came in 4th in a 4 horse race. He discounted the point that she got 3,000 + votes; she still came in 4th. The 2 year versus 4 year term doesn't make much difference either. He stated he still supported Janet Lockhart. She's active in the community; she has the time; and she's been in key positions all over the City. On motion of Cm. Barnes, seconded by Cm. Burton, and by unanimous vote, the Council appointed Lisbeth Howard to fill the vacant Council seat with a term ending in November, 1996. City Clerk Kay Keck administered the Oath of Office to Cm. Howard and she was seated on the Council. **** ***************************************************************************************************** CITY COUNCIL MINUTES , VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER27,1994 ,:".

REGULAR MEETING Page 373 e e NOISE MITIGATION FEE ORDINANCE (390-20) Mayor Houston opened the public hearing. City Attorney Silver presented the Staff Report and advised that one of the mitigation measures required as part of the adoption of the Eastern Dublin General Plan Amendment and Specific Plan Environmental Impact Report was that the City should develop a noise mitigation fee to pay for mitigation measures such as noise barriers, earthen berms or retrofitting existing structures with sound-related windows. Adoption of this enabling ordinance is not subject to CEQA. Government Code Section 65913.2 requires the Council to consider the effect of an ordinance such as this with respect to the housing needs of the region in which the City is located. The City would have to refrain from imposing regulations which would make housing infeasible for any segment of the community. This ordinance would not make housing infeasible for any segment of the community because it is necessary to allow development to occur. This ordinance will have a beneficial effect on the housing needs of the region and it will help the City to meet the ABAG projected housing need in Dublin. The ordinance is the first step. It is an implementing ordinance which, if adopted, will establish the mechanism for imposing a noise mitigation fee. No fees will be imposed by the ordinance. Ms. Silver stated the cost of preparing the Noise Mitigation Fee Ordinance can be recovered from property owners applying for approval of development in Eastern Dublin. Cm. Burton asked if this was a new concept. He was concerned about how we will be able to provide affordable housing. Cm. Moffatt asked if a developer could mitigate by putting in soundwalls or something like this. Ms. Silver stated yes, they would have an option of putting in some of these measures rather than paying the fee. No testimony was presented by any member of the public relative to this issue. Mayor Houston closed the public hearing. On motion of Cm. Burton, seconded by Cm. Moffatt, and by majority vote, the Council waived the reading and INTRODUCED the Ordinance. Cm. Howard abstained as she had not had a chance to review the Staff Report on this item. **** ***************************************************************************************************** I CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 27,1994 -:-. Page 374 e - EASTERN DUBLIN TRAFFIC IMPACT FEE/AREA OF BENEFIT FEE (390-20) Mayor Houston opened the public hearing. Public Works Director Thompson advised that a lot of written comments had been received on this item, some of which were included in the packets. Some fairly thick ones were received late last week and today and Staff had not had time to adequately respond to all the comments. Because of this, Staff recommended that the Council take public testimony this evening and then continue the hearing until January 9, 1995. At that time, Staff will make a full presentation and attempt to answer all the questions that have been received. Carolyn Morgan read a statement from residents of Doolan Canyon, liTo the Dublin City Council: Even though Doolan Canyon is being excluded from traffic impact fees and area of benefit fees, we believe that any fees being imposed on any landowners who are outside the annexation area is in violation of Dublin's General Plan. Dublin's General Plan states that development will pay its own way. Only landowners who are in the annexation area will be allowed to develop. This development will be the cause for new roads being needed. Landowners who can develop should bare the costs for all the roads they need. Why should landowners outside the annexation area pay fees to benefit landowners who can develop? Landowners outside the annexation area do not need new roads. Be consistent with your General Plan. Make development pay its own way. Thank you for this chance to speak. The Pattersons, 5661 Doolan Canyon, The Foscalinas, 5200 Doolan Canyon, The Morgans, 5184 Doolan Canyon, The Akins, 5111 Doolan Canyon, The Steffens, 5033 Doolan Canyon, The Ogelvies, 5360 Doolan Canyon." The letter was not signed. City Attorney Silver advised that if the fee is adopted, the fee can only be imposed by the City on properties within the City limits. The fee would not be effective in areas not within the City. When those areas come into the City, it would then become effective. Right now, for example, part of the area within the Eastern Dublin Specific Plan area, the County-owned property, is within the City, so if the fee were adopted now, it would be effective and applicable to development on the County property because it is within the City. It would not be effective in any other area within the eastern Dublin area, When the proposed 1,500 acres are annexed to the City, then the fee would be applicable to those 1,500 acres. Then when property to the east of that is annexed, it would be applicable there. Ms. Morgan stated the letter she received in the mail stated that the fee would be imposed on all areas within the Eastern Dublin General Plan with the exception of future study area, so that meant lands outside of the annexation area. ***************************************************************************************************** , CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 27. 1994 Page 375 e e Ms. Silver stated the fee will only be imposed when an applicant comes to the City and seeks a building permit, and no one is going to come to the City to request a building permit until the property is within the City limits. She stated Staff would try to clarify this issue in the Staff Report at the next meeting. City Manager Ambrose advised that the City had to send notice to everybody that was within 300 feet of the area, so there were a lot of people that got notices in both Pleasanton and surrounding areas who aren't directly affected. Ms. Morgan stated the notice she received did not state this. Mr. Ambrose advised that Staff would prepare and send out another notice to make certain this is clear. Cm. Burton made a motion to continue the public hearing. Mayor Houston announced that the public hearing was continued to January 9,1995. * * * * AWARD OF BID CONTRACT 94-04A - DOUGHERTY ROAD IMPROVEMENTS (600-30) Public Works Director Thompson stated on this project, the low bid received exceeds funds budgeted for construction. The project will add a traffic signal at the Dougherty Road/Sierra Lane intersection and construct median and channelization improvements on Dougherty Road between Sierra Lane and Dublin Boulevard. A large portion of the construction cost of this project is being funded by a FederallSTEA grant. which was obtained in Fiscal Year 1993-94. Caltrans has reviewed the proposal submitted by the low bidder, Grade-Tech, Inc., and has given concurrence to award the project. Cm. Burton asked the location of where the City entrance signs would be. He found it interesting that the extra paving was about twice the amount that Staff estimated in all the bids. He asked for an explanation. Mr. Thompson stated the entrance sign would be about halfway between Dublin Boulevard and Sierra Lane. Mr. Thompson stated they talked with the contractors and they basically said costs were greater because it was such a small job and they would have to come in with back hoes and small equipment, plus the fact that there is a lot of traffic control needed there. ***************************************************************************************************** , CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 27. 1994 -:. Page 376 e e Mr. Ambrose advised that the City had a fairly favorable year-end balance in its Gas Tax fund. Secondly, Dougherty Road doesn't present the most positive image for our City. This would be the first step toward cleaning that up. If we put dirt in there, there will be more maintenance responsibility. em. Burton stated he was not impressed with paving stones and would like to see the City leave this off and cut down the total amount. We should not spend this on paving stones. He felt we could do better sometime down the line. Cm. Barnes pointed out that it will cost us more down line as the job already is small. Mayor Houston stated this area of town looks terrible and we should do whatever we can to upgrade it. When he was walking during the campaign, he discovered that there is really an image problem out there. We have unallocated gas reserves that can be used. Cm. Moffatt asked if recycled materials would be used. Mr. Thompson stated yes, this had been figured in. On motion of Cm. Moffatt, seconded by Cm. Barnes, and by unanimous vote, the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 124 - 94 AWARDING CONTRACT 94-04A DOUBHERTY ROAD/SIERRA LANE IMPROVEMENTS TO GRADE-TECH, INC. ($273,573.50 Including Two Alternates) and approved a budget change form in the amount of $35,252 to provide for construction of base bid and alternate items ($14,238 will be transferred from projects that came in under budget earlier this year, and $21,014 will come from unallocated Gas Tax reserves). **** AWARD OF BID CONTRACT 94-07 - HERITAGE CENTER RENOVATION (600-30) Parks & Community Services Director Lowart presented the Staff Report and advised that 4 bids were received for the Heritage Center Renovation project. The low bidder was Skyline Construction, with a base bid of $168,500 and deductive alternates totaling $10,800. The base bid exceeds the available budget by approximately $18,107, however, if the bid alternates are deducted, the shortfall is reduced to $7,307. This amount does not include a contingency for change orders. ***************************************************************************************************** I CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 27,1994 ". Page 377 e e Ms. Lowart discussed eliminating various alternates and the cost savings that would be realized. Ms. Lowart stated although the City Council has requested that consideration be given to having volunteers complete portions of the project, to date, volunteer labor has not been forthcoming. Staff also expressed concerns about volunteers taking on several of the alternates due to the technical nature of the work involved. Additionally, the City could be placing itself at some risk if volunteers were involved in lead abatement. Cm. Moffatt asked if we had received the Measure AA money yet or if it was still with the East Bay Regional Park District. Ms. Lowart advised that we requested a 10% advance which is allowable under the guidelines of the grant program and the remainder is on a reimbursement basis. Cm. Moffatt asked where the interest is going on this money. Mr. Rankin stated the East Bay Regional Park District has the biggest bureaucracy and it takes forever to get funds released from them. The endowment fund was discussed for maintenance of the cemetery. These funds cannot be used for the renovation. John Merz, the second low bidder on the project, addressed the Council and stated if they take into account the deduct items, then he would be low bidder. He requested that the Council consider the savings that would be realized by eliminating the options and awarding the bid to his company. Cm. Moffatt stated his understanding of the volunteers was that it was to be prison guards volunteering their time to paint. Ms. Lowart stated she was advised that they only do one project at a time and they are now working on the DSRSD building relocation out to the prison grounds. It has been determined that there is lead in the paint and the lead has to be abated before it can be painted, so this is something we may not want volunteers to do. Cm. Burton discussed the engineer's estimate compared to the base bids submitted on Alternate #4. Mr. Merz stated they felt this was a very labor intense job and was worth more money than the engineers estimated. ***************************************!************************************************************* CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 27. 1994 '": . Page 378 e e Mayor Houston noted that the base bids were very similar and aside from the dollars, he asked if other criterion was used to choose. Ms. Lowart stated as a public contract, we are required to go with the lowest responsible bidder. Mayor Houston stated he felt it was good to go with the full scope of work. On motion of Cm. Moffatt, seconded by Cm. Burton, and by unanimous vote, the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 125 - 94 AWARDING CONTRACT 94-07 HERITAGE CENTER RENOVATION TO SKYLINE CONSTRUCTION ($168,500) approved the Budget Change Form and authorized the Mayor to execute the agreement. **** REQUEST TO SUBMIT FEDERAL GRANT PROPOSAL FOR COPS FAST PROGRAM (580-40) Police Chief Rose stated the Federal Government has authorized up to $165 million in grants to be made to state, local and other public law enforcement agencies which serve populations under 50,000. The grant will pay 75% of the salary and benefits, up to a total of $75,000 spread over 3 years. The remaining costs must be picked up by the City. Over the 3 year period covered by the grant, these additional costs are estimated to be $156,000. Chief Rose stated if the City is awarded the grant position request, a plan would have to be developed to utilize the position in some form of community based policing program. If the City is awarded the grant. the Alameda County Sheriff's Department has agreed to amend the existing contract, certifying that the Sheriff's Department meets and complies with all Federal legal requirements regarding any personnel employed with grant funds. Chief Rose advised that at this time, all the requirements to receive this grant are unknown, however, there is a December 31, 1994 deadline for filing the application. Cm. Moffatt asked if this was the same program that he brought information back on from the League conference in Long Beach. ***************************************************************************************************** , CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 13 REGULAR MEETING DECEMBER 27, 1994 -:-. Page 379 e e Chief Rose stated there has been so much information on this as part of the Crime Bill that he wasn't sure. Cm. Burton stated he felt this was just another suction program and he would not support it. On motion of Cm. Moffatt, seconded by Cm. Barnes, and by majority vote, the Council authorized Staff to submit the grant application. Cm. Burton voted against this motion. **** Mr. Ambrose stated he had received a call from the School Superintendent who suggested two dates for a liaison committee meeting; January 11 th or 18th at 3:00 p.m. Mayor Houston and Cm. Burton checked their schedules and determined that January 18th would work best. Mr. Ambrose stated the location would be determined and an agenda will need to be put together. **** Council Committee Assiqnments (110-30) Mr. Ambrose discussed several committee assignments that Mayor Houston had left off his list. These were agreed upon and added to the list. **** Comments from Cm. Barnes re Orientation (610-05) Cm.
