street lighting and asked Mr. Friedline to explain the process.
Mr. Friedline said the City had an infill lighting program which was mainly for older
neighborhoods, designed under different standards. These areas were much darker
than newer neighborhoods and were areas that needed more lighting due to public
safety concerns. He said the street lighting manager was Michael Sills-Trausch and
he could be reached at 623-930-2019.
Councilmember Clark asked if there was a waiting list for the program.

PARTICIPATION IN THE PHOENIX SPONSORED MULTI -CITY
SINGLE FAMILY WATER USE STUDY TO ASSESS CHANGES IN
RESIDENTIAL WATER DEMAND.
Staff Contact: Craig Johnson, P.E., Director, Water Services
Mr. Johnson said the study was funded by the Arizona Department of Water
Resources. The grant -funded project would monitor water use in homes in Phoenix,
Glendale, Chandler and Gilbert to provide important data that would be used to tailor
conservation strategies. Phoenix would conduct the study and manage the contract
with Aquacraft. He said the number of homes studied in Glendale would be between
80 and 120, and customer confidentiality would be protected.
Councilmember Clark asked if there was any cost to the City for the study.
Mr. Johnson said there was no cost.
Councilmember Clark asked what the cost would be for staff time.
Mr. Johnson said the in-kind services would be less than $50,000.
Councilmember Clark asked what kind of criteria was involved in selecting
participants in the study and asked how participants were solicited for the study.
Mr. Johnson said it had not yet been determined how many Glendale homes would
participate in the study. He said they were trying to do a microstudy for water use
and demand for conservation purposes in the east, west and central valley.
Councilmember Clark asked if the criteria were known at this point.
Mr. Johnson said the focus would be on the age of the home, location and fixtures
inside the home. Special devices would be placed in the homes to measure the
water used in those homes. How the demand was met in those homes would help in
future conservation efforts.
Councilmember Clark asked how participants would be determined for the study.
Mr. Johnson did not have the answer to that question, but would get the answer.
Councilmember Clark said it was important to get information out to the public if they
were going to be soliciting homeowners for the study.
A motion was made by Councilmember Turner, seconded by Councilmember
Clark, that Resolution No. R17-15 be approved. The motion carried by the
following vote:
Aye: 7 - Mayor Weiers, Vice Mayor Hugh, Councilmember Aldama, Councilmember

FORESTRY DIVISION, ARIZONA COMMUNITY CHALLENGE GRANT
AGREEMENT NO. CCG 16-101, FOR THE GLENDALE DESERT
FOOD FOREST IN THE CITY OF GLENDALE.
Staff Contact: Craig Johnson, P.E., Director, Water Services
Mr. Johnson explained there had been an increase in the number of residents who
were interested in transforming their lawns into desert gardens. The item would
provide an educational resource element and demonstration sites that were relevant
to Glendale's unique climate. The grant would provide funding for development of a
food forest demonstration site at the Main Library and would provide resources for
homeowners looking for water -efficient, edible gardening tips. It would enhance
conservation, education and training.
Councilmember Clark said the concept was unique and asked if workshops would be
held at the Main Library. She also said $10,000 didn't seem like much money to get
the project off the ground.
Mr. Johnson said in April, May and June, partnerships would be developed with the
Maricopa County Master Garden Program, Linking Edible Forest Network and Trees
Matter. Once the partnerships were established, public presentations would be held
in June and July, October and November as well as January and February, 2018. He
said a tree planting exercise would be held in October and November 2017, and a
program evaluation would be held in February and March 2018.
Councilmember Clark asked if the public would be notified about the workshops.
Mr. Johnson said that was correct.
A motion was made by Councilmember Turner, seconded by Councilmember
Clark, that Resolution No. R17-16 be approved. The motion carried by the
following vote:
Aye: 7 - Mayor Weiers, Vice Mayor Hugh, Councilmember Aldama, Councilmember
Clark, Councilmember Tolmachoff, Councilmember Malnar, and Councilmember
Turner
19. 17-107 RESOLUTION NO. R17-18
A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE,
MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA, AUTHORIZING THE CITY
MANAGER TO EXECUTE A LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH 3G
ARCHERY INCORPORATED FOR THE USE OF CITY PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 8181 W. BETHANY HOME ROAD, GLENDALE,
ARIZONA.
Staff Contact: Erik Strunk, Director, Public Facilities, Recreation and
Special Events
Mr. Strunk said if the agreement was approved, 3G Archery would be responsible for
archery classes, use of archery equipment and general supervision of the archery
range, as well as light maintenance. He said special interest archery classes would
be held for interested participants. Three lanes would always be open to the public.
The Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission voted unanimously to recommend
approval of the agreement. He said there would be a one-time cost of $5,000 to
purchase targets and other needed items to launch the program which was already
City of Glendale Page 8 Printed on 4/17/2017
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 28, 2017
included in the budget and no additional funds were being requested.
Councilmember Aldama said the objective was that the public archery range be
accessible to residents and visitors. He was concerned that only three lanes would
be open to the public. He would like to see at least four lanes be available for the
public.
Mr. Strunk said one of the requirements for the facility was the public element and
the contract did satisfy that requirement. He said scheduled events would only be
held about 20% of the year and the remainder of the time, the facility would be open
to the public.
Councilmember Aldama asked if 3G would be using the facility for several months out
of the year and then the facility would be open to the pubic the rest of the time.
Mr. Strunk did not have the exact schedule but explained it was a year-round
operation. 3G would use the facility a certain number of days per week. The balance
of the unused days would be for public use.
Councilmember Aldama asked if the general public would be restricted during
tournaments. He also asked if those tournaments could be posted to let the general
public know when the events would be held.
Mr. Strunk said the tournaments would be posted in advance. He also explained the
agreement called for three lanes to be open to the public at all times.
Councilmember Aldama asked that at least four lanes be opened at all times to the
public. He said there was a very large archery fan base in the west valley. He asked
that the Council consider adding one more lane for a total of four lanes.
Mayor Weiers asked how many targets were currently at the range right now
Mr. Strunk said there were six targets.
Mayor Weiers asked if there was the potential to have a total of 16 targets
Mr. Strunk said that was correct.
Mayor Weiers asked if Councilmember Aldama wanted to make an amendment to
the agreement.
Councilmember Aldama did want to make an amendment but also wanted to hear
from the other Councilmembers.
Councilmember Clark asked to hear from the representative from 3G Archery.
Carmen Gunn, 3G Archery, was agreeable to keeping four lanes open to the public.
She said the only time the public would be restricted would be during the para
archery tournament and the restriction was only for one day. There was a great deal
of potential for the sport in the west valley and 3G was very excited to partner with
the City.
Mayor Weiers confirmed Ms. Gunn was talking about a tournament with disabled
archers.
City of Glendale Page 9 Printed on 4/17/2017
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 28, 2017
Ms. Gunn said that was correct. There were very few para archery tournaments and
3G had been approached to bring the multi -national tournament to the facility. She
said the goal was to have the tournament in September to kick off the first year and
promote archery in Glendale.
Councilmember Aldama said it would be a very beneficial relationship for the City and
he understood closing part of the facility during a tournament. The objective was to
have the archery range as a drop-in facility for the public. He would like at least four
lanes open to the public.
Ms. Gunn said she would be happy to move the open lanes to four. Her goal was to
have the facility be a destination for many archers.
Councilmember Clark asked if 3G would be running archery classes through the
Parks and Recreation Department.
Ms. Gunn said that was correct.
Councilmember Clark asked how 3G was going to keep four lanes open when there
were only six lanes open.
Ms. Gunn explained she had her own equipment and would use that until all of the
remaining lanes were opened.
Councilmember Clark said she was referring to lane space, not the equipment. She
asked how they would accommodate a class of four or five students while still
keeping four lanes open to the public.
Ms. Gunn said they would be using the other side of the range for those classes and
it was not unusual to have four people shooting on one target during a class.
Councilmember Clark said she understood.
Councilmember Turner asked if six lanes were currently open to the public during
daylight hours.
Mr. Strunk said there were 16 lanes at the range. He said the request was to
maintain four open lanes to the public at all times.
Mayor Weiers said everyone might be confused and explained there was a capacity
to have 16 lanes open lanes right now.
Mr. Strunk said that was correct and explained there were only six targets. He said
additional targets would be added over time.
Councilmember Turner asked if the term of the agreement was initially two years.
Mr. Strunk said that was correct.
Councilmember Turner asked if there would be an opportunity to make any changes
to the agreement at the end of that two years.
Mr. Strunk said both the Council and the Parks and Recreation Commission would
City of Glendale Page 10 Printed on 4/17/2017
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 28, 2017
be advised of the group's performance.
Councilmember Turner said six lanes were ready to go and asked if the other lanes
could be used if someone brought their own target.
Mr. Strunk said that was correct.
Councilmember Turner asked if the range was open during daylight hours.
Mr. Strunk said the range was only open during daylight hours.
Councilmember Turner had heard Ms. Gunn say 3G would agree to keep four lanes
open and accessible to the public. He didn't think there was any reason that would
not work as there were plenty of lanes. He said if that was a formal motion, he would
second it.
Mayor Weiers did not have a problem with it either, as long as 3G could run the para
archery tournament.
Councilmember Aldama said 3G was willing to provide free and temporary use of
archery equipment to drop in residents. He said there were many children who might
want to try out the sport and it would help to increase the fan base.
A motion was made by Councilmember Aldama, seconded by
Councilmember Clark, to amend R17-18, the last bullet under version 1 to
read that four archery lanes would be made available to the general public
at all times. The motion carried by the following vote:
Aye: 7 - Mayor Weiers, Vice Mayor Hugh, Councilmember Aldama, Councilmember
Clark, Councilmember Tolmachoff, Councilmember Malnar, and Councilmember
Turner
A motion was made by Councilmember Aldama, seconded by Councilmember
Tolmachoff, that Resolution No. R17-18 be approved as amended. The motion
carried by the following vote:
Aye: 7 - Mayor Weiers, Vice Mayor Hugh, Councilmember Aldama, Councilmember Clark,
Councilmember Tolmachoff, Councilmember Malnar, and Councilmember Turner

AN ORDINANCE OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE,
MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA, APPROVING A MASTER AIRPORT
TERMINAL OFFICE LEASE AGREEMENT FOR USE BY THE
GLENDALE MUNICIPAL AIRPORT.
Staff Contact: Jack Friedline, Director, Public Works
Ms. Bower read Ordinance No. 017-13.
Mr. Friedline said the proposed ordinance approved a new master airport terminal office
agreement and authorized the city manager to enter into new and renewal leases for
airport terminal office suites at the Glendale Municipal Airport. The airport leases office
space at the terminal building to private individuals and companies. In recent years,
City of Glendale Page 12 Printed on 4(17/2017
City Council Meeting Minutes - Final March 28, 2017
non -aviation companies had expressed an interest in leasing available space. There was
current available space to lease and a lease template which removed the requirement for
the lessee to perform commercial aviation activities had been developed.
The airport terminal currently had a vacancy rate of approximately 30%. Updating the
master airport terminal office agreement would enable the airport to expand the potential
pool of lessors and maximize the rental space. In February 2015, the Aviation Advisory
Commission passed a motion recommending Council approval of the proposed ordinance.
Revenue would depend on rental rates, which would be negotiated using current market
conditions and would have CPI adjustments annually.
A motion was made by Councilmember Tolmachoff, seconded by Vice Mayor
Hugh, that Ordinance No. 17-13 be approved. The motion carried by the following
vote:
Aye: 7 - Mayor Weiers, Vice Mayor Hugh, Councilmember Aldama, Councilmember Clark,

COUNCIL COMMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS
Councilmember Aldama reminded those staying in town for the Final Four to visit and
shop at local Glendale businesses. He thanked the Glendale Police Department for the

Councilmember Aldama said the annual Hook -A -Kid on Fishing event was April 8th from

several sponsors would provide loaner fishing poles and stock in the lake and 1,000 free
fishing licenses would be provided to children, ages 7 to 10.
Councilmember Aldama thanked all the school employees for the work they did every day
and for their dedication to the children.
Councilmember Clark spoke about attending a press conference with law enforcement,
