Public Works Director Mutter reported the design of the transit center is in progress and it is scheduled to go to bid after the first of the year. At this time, a new location could jeopardize the project as we are faced with a June 30, 2000, deadline to complete the process to receive the transportation grant funds.

Resolution No. 5700 - Interpretive Pedestrian Strollway - Councilmember George explained that SANBAG approved a combined Call for Projects for both the Transportation Enhancement Activities (TEA) and TDA Article 3 programs on August 4, 1999, and he submitted a project under the pedestrian or bike facilities category entitled Interpretive Pedestrian Strollway with Mary Petite's assistance. The scope of the project includes the historic area bounded on the north by Pearl. Avenue, on the south by Olive Avenue, on the east by Sixth Street, and the west by a line running south on Eureka Street to Redlands Boulevard, west of Redlands Boulevard to Buena Vista Street, and southeast on Buena Vista Street to Olive Avenue. This project will provide a self-guided walking tour of the downtown area to emphasize the cultural and historic character of Redlands and educate people to appreciate the historical treasurer we have in Redlands. Signs will be installed at the bottom of both the Orange Street and Sixth Street off-ramps of the I-10 Freeway directing motorists to the Shoppers Lane area between Eureka and Orange Streets to begin the tour. Buildings and/or historical sites to be included on the tour are the Santa Fe October 19, 1999 Page 5 Depot, Crittenden Building, Phinney Building, Zanja, Citrus Building, Cope Building, City Hall, Smiley Library, Lincoln Memorial Shrine, Redlands Bowl, and Redlands Post Office. Letters of supports for this project have been received from the Redlands Area Historical Society, Redlands Conservancy, and Downtown Redlands Business Association. Asking for the City Council's support, Councilmember George moved to adopt Resolution No. 5700, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redlands authorizing an application for FY 1999-2000 Transportation Enhancement Activities Call for Projects for the Interpretive Pedestrian Strollway. Motion seconded by Councilmember Banda and carried unanimously. Mayor Cunningham complimented Councilmember George for his efforts to obtains the funds. Sacramento Lobby - Councilmember Freedman said the veto of AB 1.553 could not have been accomplished without intense effort on the part of the City Council and members of our community and without the assistance of Sande George and Associates as a Sacramento lobbyist. He thanked all who participated in this process. Councilmember Freedman felt it was imperative that the City continue to have representation in Sacramento at the earliest stages of the 2000 legislative season, and asked for the City Council's support and moved to direct the City Manager to initiate asking for quotes for lobbying services and to report back to the City Council for its consideration; motion seconded by Councilmember Banda. Councilmember Gilbreath felt the League of California Cities involvement in State legislative matters was sufficient and much more cost effective. Councilmember George indicated he was willing to look at costs but warned he may not be supportive if the cost was excessive. The motion carried with Councilmember Gilbreath voting NO. Federal Disaster Recovery Funds - Public Works Director Mutter announced the City of Redlands has been preliminarily awarded a $1 million Federal Disaster Recovery Initiative grant from the Department of Housing and Community Development's CDBG program. These funds will be used for a long-needed storm drain improvement project of the Zanja at Redlands Boulevard and Ninth Street. He commended Mary Petite for her research and preparation of the presentation for this grant application. This award is contingent upon the Department of Housing and Urban Development's approval of the State's Action Plan. AB 1553 - A letter from Governor Gray Davis, explaining his stance on AB 1553's veto, indicated that if no progress is made on a fair and equitable resolution of the development of the property known as the Donut Hole and service responsibility issues, that he would look favorably on similar legislation next year. Mayor Cunningham felt the City should pursue the possibility of a mediator to work with the City and property owners. He suggested contacting the Governor's Office for assistance. Charles House, board member of the United Donut Hole Property Owners Association which represents approximately 90 percent of the assessed valuation of the property in the Donut October 19, 1999 Page 6 Hole, addressed the City Council regarding the mediation proposal. Mr. House informed Councilmembers that his association is not interested in being a pawn in the upcoming election and reviewed the problems they have with the mediation proposal and presented suggestions as how to proceed with "good faith" negotiations. He closed his lengthy comments requesting the City Council meet with them after the November election and come to a "win win" resolution. Councilmembers discussed this matter at length with Mayor Cunningham leading this discussion. Councilmember George felt we owed Governor Davis a great deal for this courage to veto this bill, and expressed his desire for both sides to get together and negotiate this before it has to go back to the Governor. Mayor Cunningham expressed his delight to find some one (referring to Mr. House) who was willing to sit down at the table to negotiate a development agreement. He and Councilmember Banda expressed their willingness to represent the City at the negotiations.

She also felt that changes were needed to the layout of the lots and roads. Encouraging the City Council to accept this offer were: Peter Coonradt, Ted Balph, John Nill Hoefs, and Anne Monike. Councilmembers were most appreciative of this generous offer from Mrs. Banta and discussed the tax implications for her as well as the need for the Mr. Gresham (Ross) Roskamp, the developer, to be willing to change the configuration of his development.

Motion seconded by Councilmember Freedman and carried unanimously. UNFINISHED BUSINESS Resolution No. 5703 - Stop Sins - Public Works Director Mutter reported the Traffic and Parking Commission unanimously recommended denial of a request for a four-way stop at the intersection of Palm Avenue and Grove Street by installing stop signs on. Grove Street at its meeting held on. July 22, 1999. An appeal to this recommendation was filed by Councilmember Freedman. Initially, the request was submitted to the Traffic and Parking Commission by Damon Bogan, 1314 East Palm Avenue. Currently, there are stop signs on Palm Avenue but not on Grove Street. the primary reason for the existing stop signs on Palm Avenue is to force the east and west bound traffic to stop and cross a gutter dip located along the east side of Grove Street at a slow speed to prevent potential injury to passengers and vehicles. Research of the reported accidents at this intersection indicated there was one reported accident in 1999, two in 1998, two in 1997, two in 1996, and one in 1994. Based on the accidents, this intersection does not meet the accident warrant according to the Caltrans Traffic Manual. The intersection also does not meet the warrant for a minimum traffic volume outlined in the Caltrans Traffic Manual in order to qualify for a four-way stop intersection. According to the Institute of Transportation Engineers, stop signs should not be installed arbitrarily. The stop sign causes interruption to the smooth flow of traffic and inconvenience to the drivers. This may result in forcing drivers to use an alternative route which was originally not designed to accommodate the increased traffic flow, causing additional traffic problems. The stop sign also reduced efficiency of the vehicle, increases wear and tear on the vehicle, and contributes to air pollution. Public Works Director Mutter concluded that it is important to recognize that standards, policies, and guidelines issued by the State of California, Caltrans, and the Institute of Traffic Engineers, which are based on years of studies, experiments, analyses using accumulated traffic engineering knowledge, have proven to work in the real world. Variance from standards, policies, and guidelines should only be considered in exceptional cases. Calling the October 19, 1999 Page 9 intersection dangerous and urging the City Council to authorize the installation of stops signs on Grove Street were nearby residents: Lucyndi Bogan, Robert M. Jaime, and Damon Bogan. A petition supporting this request and representing 20 households near the intersection was also submitted by Mr. Bogan. Councilmember Freedman moved to approve this appeal and adopt Resolution No. 5703, a resolution of the City Council of the City of Redlands establishing the following traffic regulations pursuant to Title 10 of the Redlands Municipal Code: erect stop signs on Grove Street at Palm Avenue making the intersection of Palm Avenue and Grove Street a four-way stop. Motion seconded by Councilmember Banda and carried unanimously. Pre-Annexation Agreement - Mountainview Power Company - Community Development Director Shaw reported that as a part of the negotiations with Mountainview Power Company regarding annexation of land they own at the northeast corner of Mountain View Avenue and San Bernardino Avenue, it was agreed that Mountainview Power would request approval of a pre-annexation agreement. A revised copy of the proposed pre-annexation agreement was received via facsimile on Monday, October 18, 1999, and extends the completion date to February 1, 2000. Councilmember Freedman moved to approve the Pre-Annexation Agreement between the City of Redlands and Mountainview Power Company with the finding that this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act under Section 15061(b)(3). Motion seconded by Councilmember Banda and carried unanimously. NEW BUSINESS Agreement - CH2M-Hill - Donut Hole Issues - Municipal Utilities Director Phelps reported in August of 1996, the City of Redlands entered into an Agreement to Furnish Engineering Consulting Services on Water and Wastewater Issues with the firm of CH2M-Hill. The Water and Wastewater Issues Study was comprised of individual "task orders" for engineering consulting support to the City of Redlands associated with development in the Donut Hole. The Water and Wastewater Issues Study anticipated that there would be a continuing effort by CH2M-Hill to provide additional services through task orders by amendment to our agreement as future situations required. Currently, the City of Redlands is faced with the requirement to provide a response to the Joint Legislative Audit Committee of the California Legislature regarding the value of municipal utility facilities that serve the Donut Hole. This will require a study of the cost, economic, and engineering factors to determine the value of the City's investment in the Donut Hole. At the City Council meeting on October 5, 1999, the City Council ordered that the City retain the firm of CH2M-Hill to audit our investments in the Donut Hole. City Manager Luebbers noted the amendment should not exceed the amount of $13,400.00 which is remaining from the amounts that were previously anticipated and authorized for CH2M-Hill for prior task orders. This amount may not complete research needed and staff may have to return to the City October 19, 1999 Page 10 Council for an additional appropriation. Councilmember Freedman moved to approve Amendment No. 3 to the Agreement to Furnish Engineering Consulting Services on Water and Wastewater issues with CH2M-Hill in an amount not to exceed $13,400.00; motion seconded by Councilmember Banda. Councilmember Gilbreath felt the State should do the audit without cost to the taxpayers of Redlands. Councilmember Cunningham questioned if this matter could be continued until after the election. City Manager Luebbers responded the State Committee gave us a deadline which has expired but that they are awaiting action tonight before proceeding. He indicated he could ask for a two week continuance not knowing when we would "cross the line." The motion then carried with Councilmember Gilbreath voting NO. Minor Subdivision. No. 245 - Dry Sewer Requirement Waiver - Municipal. Utilities Director Phelps reported a request has been received from Urban Environs, representing John D. McAlearney, Jr., Trustee of the Clan McTrust UDT, to waive the dry sewer requirement for Minor Subdivision No. 245 located on Chaparral Drive, south of Sunset Drive. Staff has reviewed the written request and determined that the three items noted in the request do comply with the three requirements of Section 13.44.080.D of the Redlands Municipal Code and provide the basis for the City Council action to waive the dry sewer requirement. Councilmember Banda moved to waive the dry sewer requirement for Minor Subdivision No. 245. Motion seconded by Councilmember Cunningham and carried unanimously. PUBLIC COMMENTS AB 1553 - Donut Hole - Mr. Robert Rappuchi asked Councilmember Gilbreath whether or not she supported AB 1553. She responded that she had been contacted by Senator Brulte but declined to sign a letter of support. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, the City Council meeting adjourned at 8:16 P.M. The next regular meeting will be held on November 2, 1999. City Clerk October 19, 1999 Page 11
