BUSINESS FROM THE FLOOR Mr.Nate Borum, 5956 W. Morning Dove Drive, Glendale, Arizona stated that the residents of Arrowhead Ranch do not want convenience stores, but gas stations designed to the standards of the community would be acceptable. He noted that lack of public input on issues can be caused by developers not being required to inform the neighborhood about phases of a project, such as design review. He gave, as an example, the project at 67th Avenue and Beardsley Road. He listed various concerns regarding development, i.e. neighborhoods being pitted against each other; lack of information to the public; poor public signage regarding development, particularly commercial development; traffic impacts caused by development; construction of convenience stores and apartments which may not have been identified at the public hearings; and conflicts regarding control of the Arrowhead Phase III Homeowners Association. Mr. Borum suggested that these were issues the City Council needed to be concerned about in the future. CONSENT AGENDA Councilmember Ewing requested Consent Agenda Item Nos. 1 and 3 be removed for separate consideration. Dr. Martin Vanacour, City Manager, read Consent Agenda Item Nos. 2 and 4 through 15 by title. 2.

EXTENSION OF STREETLIGHT MAINTENANCE CONTRACT On May 24, 1994 the City of Glendale contracted with Contractor's West, Inc. to provide streetlight maintenance through June 30, 1995 on an as-needed basis. This is the second year of a two-year extension of services. A four percent cost increase per year is included in the contract.

The recommendation was to exercise the City's option of extending the Streetlight Maintenance contract with Contractor's West, Inc. for $189,451.32, pursuant to Option No. 2, Streetlight Maintenance contract. 5. AWARD OF REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL 96-04, SERVICE CONTRACT FOR PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE TO LANDFILL EQUIPMENT One proposal was received to provide the landfill with a preventative maintenance contract for its operating equipment. This service contract will consist of on-site scheduled maintenance, repairs, and inspections of the landfill equipment to ensure serviceability and compliance with the manufacturer's recommended service schedule. The service shall begin June 1, 1996 and end May 31, 1997. The proposal contains an option clause that will permit the City, at the discretion of the City Manager, to extend this agreement for four additional one-year periods. Funding of$143,760 is available in the Landfill operating budget, Account No. 55-6235- 7330. The proposal submitted for consideration was from Empire Machinery, which is the only authorized Caterpillar dealership in the State of Arizona for sales, service and repair. The proposal was advertised and mailed to prospective companies capable of providing this service. Other potential suppliers were surveyed as to why they did not respond. Their responses included an inability to provide the required on-site service and lack of ability to maintain the predominantly Caterpillar brand equipment at the landfill. A four-member evaluation panel reviewed Empire Machinery's offer and determined that it met the terms of the proposal and was within the cost budgeted for this service. The evaluation panel consisted of staff from the Landfill and Materials Management Departments, as well as the Sanitation Superintendent. Specific evaluation factors considered included compliance with scope of work, cost of service, capabilities, and references. The recommendation was to award the contract for preventative maintenance services of landfill equipment to Empire Machinery, in the amount of$143,760, taxes included. - 3 - 6. 1996-97 EMPLOYEE BENEFITS RENEWAL As the City approaches its fourth contract year with Medical Life Insurance, Blue Cross Blue Shield,Delta Dental, Associated Health Plan and Vision Service Plan,the City of Glendale has proven to be successful each year in making only enhancements to the plans, with minimal increases, that have been well within the targeted budget amount. For 1996-97, life insurance plans will have no rate increase. The medical plans will have a 3.9% increase. The dental plans will have a 3% increase. The self-funded disability plan will be increased by $10,000. The overall renewal of the current benefit package, with a minor change to the vision benefit currently provided, will result in an approximate increase to the City of$210,890. The amount budgeted for the 1996-97 year is $250,000. The cost to employees will increase $1.42 per payday for dependent medical and$.49 for dependent dental. The optional vision plan, should the City agree to make the recommended change in participation from the Avesis plan through Blue Cross to the Vision Service Plan,will result in an overall 31%reduction. This change would cost the City $17,270 less to provide a much enhanced benefit. The carriers have agreed to offer benefits for medical, dental and vision to permanent, part- time employees, who work at least 20 hours per week, but less than 30 hours per week. It was proposed that the City contribute 50%of the employee premium only. The employee would pay 50% of the premium and 100% of dependent premium. It was recommended that the contract for the Employee Assistance Program with St. Luke's be terminated and the advisory services to supervisors be provided on an ad hoc basis by St. Luke's. Employees have the low-cost Biodyne options in the medical plan for counseling. After open enrollment, bid specifications will be prepared for replacement of these services. The recommendation was to approve the following: - Renew current carrier contracts, except for St. Luke's Employee Assistance Program, which will be terminated and replaced after a bid process. - Eliminate the Avesis Eye Plan from the medical coverage and use these funds to make a $2 contribution to an upgraded Vision Service Plan benefit. - Offer medical and dental benefits to permanent, part-time employees, with a contribution level of 50% for employee coverage only. 7.

The design and construction services include adding supplemental aeration equipment to the oxidation ditch, adding a cover to the top of the oxidation ditch, and adding odor control equipment to the oxidation ditch. The construction services on this project involve speciality mechanical, speciality piping, and speciality instrumentation features.

This amendment is in keeping with the adopted CIP for the Arrowhead Ranch Water Reclamation Facility project and will allow the design to continue into the next phase without delay. The design for the cover over the oxidation ditch will start this month and be completed in October 1996. Funds are available in the CIP Project Account No. 50-9261-7300 to cover the costs of the amendment and Engineering Department chargebacks.

PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT TO PERFORM A WATER AUDIT AND LEAK DETECTION STUDY As part of the Fiscal Year 1995-96 budget process, Council approved hiring a consultant to conduct a water audit and leak detection study of the City's water system. The water audit is being conducted to review and analyze the City's water system for efficiency. A water audit evaluates both the physical system and the accounting procedures used by the utility. Specifically, a water audit identifies unknown leaks or invalid accounting of water treated and sold that may hinder a system's efficiency. Furthermore, the water audit indicates which inaccuracies or leaks are cost effective to repair. A second reason for conducting the water audit is to assist the City in its negotiations with the Arizona Department of Water Resources. The audit provides an outside review of the City's water system and documents both the condition of the system and the City's proactive desire to operate an efficient utility. The City broadly advertised the hiring of a consultant to conduct a water audit and leak detection study. Six firms responded to the request for proposals. After a written and oral review, Consumers Applied Technologies was selected as the firm best qualified to conduct this study. This firm demonstrated comprehensive and extensive experience in conducting studies of this type. Funds are available in the Utilities Administration Account No. 50-6410-7330 for the purpose of conducting this study. The study will last approximately 4 to 5 months and will be initiated immediately. The recommendation was to award the attached contract to Consumers Applied Technologies for a fee not to exceed $102,590: 10.
