4. PROPOSED MOUNTAINS, RECREATION AND CONSERVATION AUTHORITY
INITIATIVE - At their May 24, 1990 Meeting, the Parks
and Recreation Commission reviewed the proposed
Mountains, Recreation and Conservation Authority
Initiative that is proposed for the November, 1990 Los
Angeles County ballot. This measure is intended to raise
$816,000,000 for construction of parks, trails and other
recreational facilities, of which the City would receive
approximately $875,000 in per capita funds. As only 9
cities will benefit from this measure, the Parks and
Recreation Commission were concerned about the possible
costs to be incurred by the City and finds that residents
may end up subsidizing projects outside City limits.

recommends that this measure not be supported and that
the Los Angeles County Supervisors be urged to the same.

status.

received on May 11, 1990 and after evaluation by staff,
it was determined that, due to the drought, the contract
should be awarded for sweeping on a bi-weekly basis with
the provision that when the drought improves, the Council
may elect to increase the sweeping frequency.
Recommended Action: Award contact to Community Disposal
for street sweeping services in the amount of $70,000 for
bi-weekly service or $140,000 for weekly services.
7. PRELIMINARY VACANT LAND MAP - A preliminary map has been
prepared and will be presented at the meeting. Said map

OLD BUSINESS:
Solid Waste C/Horcher announced that he was advised by the
Franchise City Attorney that he had a conflict which forbade
him from participating in and voting on this
matter.
MPT/Forbing announced that he was advised by the
City Attorney that he had a conflict which forbade
him from participating in and voting on this
matter.
CM/Van Nort distributed copies of the City's
Residential Trash Rate Survey prepared by staff.
He offered an alternative solution to the
decisions to be made by the Council at this time:
1) select a number of solid waste firms to
negotiate contracts with; 2) in addition, that
staff consider recommending that the Council
direct that the matter be re -bid with clear
milestones and clear measures to be used for
analysis.
C/Kim, C/Papen and M/Werner rejected the proposal
to obtain new bids on this project.
C/Horcher and MPT/Forbing left the meeting at 6:20
p.m.
Mr. Ralph Hofer, Community Disposal, 14048 Valley
Blvd., Industry, spoke regarding his firm's
ability to handle the City's waste hauling needs
at the least cost to the residents.
Mr. Al Simonian, Western Waste Industries, 3005
Leticia Dr., Hacienda Heights, stated that his
firm has been doing business in the City for the
past two years wherein none of the other proposers
have done so. The proposal includes compliance
with all elements of AB939 which are included in
the proposed rates. Some of the other proposals
do not include compliance in their rates.
Mr. Red Calkins, 240 Eagle Nest Dr., suggested
that since the State passed the law (AB939), let
the State tell the City how to comply. In
addition, citizens of the City must insist on
having the freedom to choose whichever waste
hauler they prefer. The franchise fee being
requested is looked upon as another attempt for
the City to raise taxes.
JULY 17, 1990 PAGE 4
Mr. Chuck Martin, 444 N. Red Cloud Dr.,
stated that he has used Western Waste over
the past few years at a lesser rate than the
original hauler and with much better, cleaner
service.
Mr. Lloyd Duncan, Comprehensive Property
Management, representing Montefino and Fall
Creek Homeowners Associations, stated that
franchising has consistently proven to be
more expensive than contracting with trash
haulers individually. In his opinion, the
proposed fees are way out of line with the
market and the franchising fees should
warrant lower market rates to the consumer.
In response to questions posed by Mr. Jim
Paul, 1269 Ahtena Dr., CA/Arczynski stated
that State law very clearly states that
persons accepting contributions while
campaigning for elective office are not
prohibited from voting on such issues
involving possible contributors once elected
to office.
Mr. Frank Dursa, 2533 Harmony Hill Dr.,
reminded Council that when they ran for
election, they promised not to raise taxes.
In his opinion, the franchise fee is nothing
but an additional tax. He feels that compet-
ition is good for business and keeps fees
down. He further stated that he had recently
received information that he turned over to
the City Manager. Part of the information
alleges that C/Papen's "fiancee" does public
relations work for Western Waste --does this
constitute a conflict of interest?
CA/Arczynski stated that, after lengthy
discussions with the Fair Political Practices
Commission on this matter, in his opinion,
C/Papen does not have a conflict of interest.
C/Papen further stated that she is not
currently "engaged."
Mr. Don Gravdahl, 23988 Minnequa, stated that
he had prepared a survey asking homeowners to
indicate the type of service they would like
to have, copies of which will be available at
City Hall tomorrow.
Mr. David Cope, 316 S. Del Sol Ln., expressed
concern over the collection of a franchise
fee.
JULY 17, 1990 PAGE 5
Mr. John A. Bush, 547 Great Bend, expressed
support for awarding the franchise to Western
Waste.
Mr. Clair Harmony, 24139 Afamado Ln., suggested
that C/Papen withdraw from further discussion or
voting on this matter due to the "appearance" of a
conflict of interest.
Ms. Carol Adams, Box 4144, D.B., representing the
D.B. Tennis Club/The Highlands congratulated the
Council on taking a "pro -active" stance on
addressing the issues involved with AB939. She
stated that the Tennis Club is currently nego-
tiating with a new trash hauler and requested
information regarding how the Club's contract will
be affected by the City's franchise.
M/Werner stated that there is a five-year phase-
out involving those haulers currently doing
business in the City. CA/Arczynski indicated that
Ms. Adams questions are dependant upon the
Council's decision regarding the franchise but
that he would get in touch with her the next day
to give her some broad parameters.
Ms. Sunny Martindale, 1333 Rapidview Dr., also
expressed concern over the City's need to charge a
franchise fee and stated that it seems to be
another tax on the citizens.
Mr. Al Rumpilla, 23958 Golden Springs Dr.,
presented a petition signed by 360 residents
demanding to "stop the award of a franchise for
trash pickup in the City of Diamond Bar."
M/Werner stated that the franchise fee recommended
by staff is 5%, not 10% as stated in the petition.
Ms. Cindy Futrell, 2591 Steeplechase Ln., stated
that not enough citizens are aware of what the
City is proposing.
RECESS: M/Werner recessed the meeting at 7:52 p.m.
RECONVENE: M/Werner reconvened the meeting at 7:58 p..m.
Mrs. Sue Page pointed out that there are several
firms in the City who provide services to the
community without charge and requested that the
Council take these charitable services under
consideration when deciding which firms to award
contracts to.
JULY 17, 1990 PAGE 6
C/Kim explained that the City will be using
the proposed franchise fee for purposes of
monitoring of the waste haulers' recycling
efforts to ensure compliance with AB939. The
fee will only be used for this purpose, not
for any other projects the City may be
interested.
C/Kim recommended that Community Disposal and
Western Waste be further analyzed by staff
for a recommendation as to their rates once a
complete comparison is accomplished. Motion
seconded by M/Werner.
C/Van Nort suggested that the Council extend
the August 1st cutoff date for local haulers
to enroll new customers to September lst and
that staff will put together a packet for the
July 31st meeting including the scope, etc.
Following that, staff would meet with the two
firms and make a recommendation to Council on
August 21st to be effective September 1st.
C/Kim and M/Werner agreed to amend the motion
to include the recommendations made by CM/Van

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: July 24, 1990 MEETING DATE: July 31, 1990
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: City Manager
FROM: Parks and Recreation Commission Via: Charles Janiel
BACKGROUND:
At the May 24, 1990 Parks and Recreation Commission Meeting, the Commission
reviewed the proposed Mountains, Recreation and Conservation Authority initiative
that the Authority hopes to have on the November 1990 Ballot. The measure is
intended to raise $816,000,000.00 for the construction of parks, trails and other
recreational facilities. Of this amount, the City of Diamond Bar would receive
approximately $1,200,000.00 in per capita funds.
The Parks and Recreation Commission expressed concern about the amount of benefit
received from this initiative as opposed to the cost incurred by the City of
Diamond Bar. Although Diamond Bar is not listed on the accompanying letter from
the City of Palos Verde Estates, it is estimated that the City's prorated share
of debt service will be approximately $5,450,000. The net cost incurred to
citizens of Diamond Bar from this initiative will be $4,250,000. As a result,
residents may be subsidizing projects outside the City limits of Diamond Bar.
In addition, the County intends on placing a tax initiative on the November Ballot
for jail construction. The inclusion of another Bond would compete with issues
critical to the County.
Attached for Council review are documents describing the measure, and
communications from Supervisor Schabarum, Chief Administrative Officer Richard
Dixon, Senator Frank Hill, and various cities stating their views on this measure.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Commission that the City
Council not support this issue, and urge the County Supervisor to vote against
this initiative.

As you are aware, the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority is
sponsoring a massive initiative that they hope will be placed on the November 1990
Los Angeles County Ballot. Your City, as well as ours, would be the recipient of
grant funds allocated on a per capita basis, in the event the measure is adopted by
the voters. In addition, several cities have been awarded monies from the "Specific
Projects" category earmarked for cities. The "benefit" aspect of the initiative has
been well -detailed by the Conservation Authority.
However, the City of Palos Verdes Estates vigorously opposes the Los Angeles
County Beaches, Wildlife and Parkland Conservation Act of 1990 and encourages you
to ask your Supervisor to vote against placing it on the November ballot. The basis
of our opposition is the following:
1. Cost to the Taxpayer. The MRCA has consistently touted the benefits
of the measure, but has provided little, if any, information on the costs
to the taxpayer. Like Topsy, the size of the bond issue continues to
escalate. Originally conceived as a $750 million measure, the latest
data indicates it is sized at $816,490,000. If issued as a 20 -year bond
measure, the ultimate cost to the taxpayer would be the following, given
varying assumptions on the interest rate.
6% interest per annum = $1,423,632,000
8% interest per annum = $1,663,190,000
10% interest per annum = $2,657,675,000
We have developed the attached chart to indicate the proportion and
amount that each city in the aggregate would pay on the principal
amount alone (the $816,490,000). At 8% interest per annum, the cost
would double! We encourage you to compare this to the amount of
money you would receive, which is delineated in the final column. For
only nine cities (out of 85) do the monies received exceed the costs
340 PALOS VERDES DRIVE WEST PALOS VERDES ESTATES, CALIFORNIA 90274-1299
borne by the taxpayers.
2. Competition with other Bond Measures. It is our understanding that
Los Angeles County intends to place a measure for the construction of
a new jail on the November ballot. In June 1990, approximately $5.1
billion of State Bond Measures were approved by the voters. Another
big bond package is being prepared for the state-wide November ballot
(The State Treasurer and leading Wall Street debt -rating organizations
have indicated that the State can only comfortably sell $2.0 billion of
bonds a year without jeopardizing its credit -worthiness.) The voters do
not have unlimited "deep pockets"; thus, we should seek to limit the
bond measures that are placed before them to the most meritorious.
3. Inappropriateness of Approach. The City of Palos Verdes Estates is
strongly supportive of measures to protect and enhance beaches, wildlife
and conservation of our State's resources. However, we believe that
these projects should be funded through state-wide bond measures
which have been submitted, and approved, by the voters time and time
again. We do not believe it is appropriate to fund these projects
through the ad -valorem property tax. There is no connection between
the two; the property tax is simply an inappropriate mechanism. We
urge the County and the State to stick with this tried and true (and
highly successful) method of funding. As a matter of fact, AB 145
(Costa) proposes the placement of an $874 million bond measure
entitled The California Park, Recreation and Wildlife Enhancement Act
of 1990 on the November 1990 ballot. We support this approach.
In closing, we believe that the 816.5 million bond measure proposed by the
Mountains Recreational Conservation Authority should not be placed on the ballot.
We hope you will join with us in communicating this view to your County Supervisor.
Thank you for your consideration of our views.

Sent to City Managers in First District
Dear :
it is my understanding that you may be in receipt of
materials from Ms. Ester Feldman of the Mountains Recreation
and Conservation Authority, soliciting your support for a
$750 million County general obligation bond issue, entitled
the "Los Angeles County Beaches, Wildlife and Park Pond
Act," to finance various beach, park and conservation
projects.
Ms. Feldman's representation that support of the ineasure is
anticipated by the Board of Supervisors in the near future
is premature.
Enclosed for your information is a memo from the County's
Chief Administrative officer explaining in detail current
concerns.
As you may be aware, I am very concerned about the amount of
bonded indebtedness being incurred by governments at all
levels. I, therefore, do not support the park bond act.
What the rest of the Board will do remains uncertain.
Please let me know if you would like to receive future
County assessments of this issue.
sincerely yours,

BOND ,XCT
As you are no doubt aware, there is a broad-based effort in
progress, sponsored by the Mountains Recreation and Conservation
Authority, to place a $750 million County General obligation Bond
Issue on the ballot to improve beaches and parks, both city and
County, and to protect wildlife and park lands, particularly in the
Santa Monica Mountains.
I have met with Mr. Ralph Cryder, Director of the Long Beach Parks
and Recreation Department, who is a knowledgeable leader among the
group supporting this measure, and we have discussed the following
issues which are of major importance to the County.
The $750 million currently being considered for this bond issue
could only be used for land and capital improvements, and not
operations pursuant to the State. Constitution. This is a problem
for the County. Given that we cannot afford to adequately operate
various recreational facilities we already have, it makes little
sense to significantly expand development further beyond that point
which wo cannot already afford to maintain. Based on this
understand.inq, Mr. Cryder believes that it might be possible to
specify within the bond measure that the use of the funds would be
limited to improving and renovating the existing infrastructure,
particularly to reduce future operating costs.
I also,discussed with Mr. Cryder that while I believed there was
indeed a need to improve the existing infrastructure of the
County's recreational facilities, I find it difficult to support
this bond issue in the total amount presently being proposed, in
view of the County's current operational and financing requirements
for jails and hospitals. Mr. Cryder indicated his willingness to
help develop a smaller bond proposal that the County could support.

Timing
Up to this point, this bond measure has been considered for the
ballot in 1990. This would present a problem as its presence on
the ballot either in June or November of 1994 would cause it to
compete with other issues critical to the State and Los Angeles
County.
In so far as the June 1990 ballot is concerned, we anticipate that
the Governor and Legislative leadership will exert considerable
influence to keep revenue items off that ballot in order to enhance
their chances of amending the Gann limit. This effort is in the
interest of Los Angeles County and has our cooperation.
The State Legislature is considering legislation sponsored by the
County to authorize an election for a 1/2 cent increase in the
sales tax for jail construction and operations. This measure may
be targeted for the november 1990 ballot. The concurrent presence
of a park bond measure on the ballot could adversely affect the
outcome of this proposal.
Mr. Cryder understands how critical the issue of ballot timing is
for our County, and he nas indicated that the bond proposal can
wait for another year.
Reg4=en_dat j
At this time, I an recommending that you take no action on the
current $750 million bond proposal. Meanwhile, I will be working
with Mr. Cryder, affected County departments, and the Mountains
Recreation and Conservation Authority on a future proposal that
will be More reflective of Los Angeles County's current financial
condition and tailored toiour actual recreational facility needs.

Honorable Gary Werner &
Members of the City Council

Diamond Bar, CA 91765
Dear Mayor Werner and City Council Members:
I am writing to ask you to join me in supporting the Los
Angeles County Beaches, Wildlife and Park Land Conservation
Act of 1990. This measure presents us with a tremendous
opportunity to address the quality of life in Diamond Bar by
providing funds for the pressing park, recreation and open
space needs in our community - but I need your help to make
it happen.
The City of Diamond Bar will receive approximately
$873,000 in discretionary funds for the city's most pressing
neighborhood park and recreation needs. These funds could be
a great help in providing badly -needed park and recreation
opportunities to city residents, and is many times the amount
that the city would receive from a state park bond act.
The measure will provide $816 million for parks, beaches
and wildlife lands throughout the county. $28 million in
special funding allocations are included for the following
significant regional parks projects in our area:
o Whittier Hills: $15 million to acquire open space, build
trails and provide public access
o Whittier Narrow Regional Park: $4 million to restore and
improve this heavily -used park
o Schabarum Regional Park: $3 million to improve public
facilities
o Brea Heights/La Carreta Regional Park: $5 million to
develop public facilities at this new park
o West Covina, Galster Wilderness Park: $1 million to develop
trails and a nature center
We must act now if we wish to protect and restore our
neighborhood parks, beaches and wildlife habitat, and if we
want to provide recreational opportunities for our children
and grandchildren. Our area continues to grow rapidly, and
passage of this measure is the only way that such substantial
funding can be made available to help address our local
needs, to improve our quality of life and to provide healthy
alternatives for our youth.
$50 million will also be available county wide for
competitive grants for tree -planting, trails, rivers and
streams and historical resources. Public agencies and
nonprofit organizations will be able to compete for these
funds, and Diamond Bar will certainly be eligible.
I urge you to join me in supporting the Los Angeles
County Beaches, Wildlife and Park Land Conservation Act of
1990 and ask the Board of Supervisors to place this measure
on the November 1990 ballot. I hope that you will adopt a
resolution in support of the measure as soon as possible and
will encourage your local park and community groups to
support it as well. Your strong support for this measure is
essential to ensure that voters will have the opportunity to
vote on this measure in November.
Please do not hesitate to contact my office at
213-947-3021 if you would like additional information or a
copy of the draft of the County of Los Angeles Beached,
Wildlife and Park Land Conservation Act.

LOS ANGELES COUNTY
BEACHES, WILDLIFE AND PARK LAND CONSERVATION ACT of 1990
A Los Angeles County Beaches, Wildlife and Park Land Bond Act would provide funds to
improve beaches and local parks and to permanently protect critical wildlife and park lands throughout
Los Angeles County. The measure would also provide funds to improve the county's museums and
arboreta, build trails and plant trees throughout the county.
Our beaches, wildlife and park lands are absolutely critical to maintaining the quality of life
in Los Angeles County. In this rapidly growing county of nearly nine million people, there are still
beautiful beaches, canyons, streams and meadows where we can find relief from the pressures of
traffic, smog and urban congestion. These lands are disappearing rapidly as the county continues to
grow, and the need to preserve this part of our natural heritage has never been greater.
Deer, owls, bobcat and mountain lion still live in the mountains and canyons less than a one
hour drive from downtown Los Angeles. Our neighborhood parks provide vital recreation
opportunities to millions of Los Angeles County residents, and inner city recreation areas provide
youths with an important alternative to gang involvement. Our beaches are among the most visited
in the world and our mountains, canyons and large parks help to protect our increasingly threatened
air and water supplies.
This proposed measure would provide funds for the following purposes:
• Los Angeles County beaches
* Neighborhood parks and recreation facilities
• Critical wildlife habitat
• Santa Monica Mountains and mountains around the San Fernando Valley
* Creeks and streams
* Trails
* Historical and archeological resources
• Urban tree programs
• Museums
• County arboreta
In addition, specific funds would be included for key beach, wildlife, park and recreation
projects throughout the county.
Voters in Los Angeles County continue to show overwhelming support for protecting coastal,
wildlife and park resources. Voters have approved nearly every park and natural resource state bond
act since 1964. In 1988, 71% of Los Angeles County voters approved Proposition 70, the California
Wildlife, Coastal and Park Land Initiative - one of the highest votes in the state. Funds for a Los
Angeles County beaches and park measure would be provided through a county -wide general
obligation bond issue. This measure is proposed for the November 1990 ballot.
The Mountains Iiecreation and Conservation Authority is currently developing this proposed
County Beaches, Wildlife and Park Land Bond Act. For more information, please contact Esther
Feldman, Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority, at 3750 Solstice Canyon Road, Malibu,
CA 90265, 213-456-7807.

JOSEPH T. EDMISTON, AICI'

BEACHES, WILDLIFE AND PARK LAND BOND ACT OF 1990
What will the Los Angeles County Beaches, Wildlife and Park Land Bond Act
do?
TEX WARD
Financial Ofticer
It will provide funds to acquire, develop and renovate beaches, park and wildlife lands and cultural
facilities throughout Los Angeles County. Funds will be provided to restore aging park, recreation and
museum facilities, acquire critical park and wildlife lands, restore beaches and acquire and build trails.
Why do we need a beach, wildlife and park land bond act in Los Angeles County?
Our beaches, parks and wildlife lands are vital to the quality of life in Los Angeles County. The
population in Los Angeles County is growing at an increasing rate every year, and there is already
a large unmet need for parks and recreation facilities throughout the county. Remaining park and open
space lands are disappearing rapidly, and we must act now if we wish to protect some of these lands
for our children.
What would the funds be spent on?
Funds would be provided for the following purposes:
* Rehabilitate Los Angeles County Beaches
* Improve neighborhood and regional park and recreation facilities
* Acquire park and critical wildlife lands
* Renovate regional museums
* Improve County arboreta and botanical gardens
* Protect lands in the Santa Monica Mountains and
Fernando Valley
* Acquire trails and provide public access
* Protect creeks and streams
* Plant trees in urban areas
* Restore historical and cultural resources
Who would spend these funds?
in the mountains around the San
Government agencies who are dedicated to the purposes listed above, including county agencies, city
agencies and the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy.
Can the county afford such a measure?
Yes. Los Angeles County has only one outstanding general obligation bond act. The County is fiscally
sound, has good ratings from national rating agencies and has a debt service (percentage of total
budget used to repay bonds and other debt) of less than 2%.
A public entity of the State of Catiforaia exercising joint pourers of the Santa Monica Mountains Corvservarl% the Conejo Recreation and Park District and
the Rancho Simi Recreation and Park District pursuant to Section 6500 et seq. oft Government Code.
Will people vote for a Los Angeles County Beaches, Wildlife and Park Land Bond Act?
Yes. Voters in Los Angeles County have a long record of strongly supporting bond acts that protect
beaches, parks and wildlife. Proposition 70, the most recent park bond act, was approved in June, 1988
by 71% of the voters in Los Angeles County - one of the highest votes in the state.
Where in the County will funds be spent?
Funds will be distributed throughout the entire county. In addition to funds for county parks, each
city will receive funds based on its share of the population. These funds can be spent on each city's
most pressing park and recreational needs. The measure will also include funds for specific park
projects throughout the county.
Who will maintain lands the are bought with funds from this act?
The government agencies who acquire land must agree to maintain and preserve those lands for park,
recreation or wildlife purposes.
Why do we need a Los Angeles County Bond Act? Doesn't the state take care of the county's park
needs?
No. Los Angeles County does not receive a fair share of state park bond acts. A full third of the
state's population lives in Los Angeles County, but the County consistently receives far less than one
third of state park bond acts.
Who supports the Los Angeles County Beaches, Wildlife and Park Land Bond Act?
Many members of the business, development, labor and civic communities are supportive of the
measure, as are park and recreation organizations throughout the county.

The following information shows that California voters continue to approve an increasing number and
dollar amount of state bond acts. The percentage by which bond acts are approved also continues to
increase, despite the increased number of bonds appearing on state ballots. This is particularly true
for park and environmental resource bond acts, which were passed with passed with votes of 70% and
above in 1988. The approval rates for these types of bonds has increased more than any other category
of bond funds. Voters clearly choose the issues they wish to support. Los Angeles County voters
consistently approve bonds by higher margins than state approval rates.
Voters have approved a total of thirty-nine state bonds acts since 1978, totalling over fourteen billion
dollars. Only one bond act has been defeated since 1978, and it was a controversial measure (Deddeh
Transportation Bond Act of 1988).

AGENDA REPORT
DATE: July 24, 1990 MEETING DATE: July 31, 1990
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
VIA: City Manager
FROM: Joann M. Saul, Senior Accountant
SUBJECT: Street Sweeping Contract for the City of Diamond Bar
RECOMMENDATION:
Contract with Community Disposal for street sweeping services for the City of
Diamond Bar.
NOTE: Due to the drought situation in Southern California, it is staff's
recommendation that the contract be awarded on a bi-weekly basis. This
reduction in sweeping frequency will further exhibit the City's commitment to
the water conservation effort. At such time as the water situation improves,
Council may elect to increase the sweeping frequency to a weekly schedule.
DISCUSSION:
Street sweeping services in fiscal years 1988-89 and 1989-90 were managed by
Los Angeles County Department of Public Works. (Sweeping services were
provided by California Street Sweeping). The City determined in early 1990
that the city staff was capable of administering its own street sweeping
contract rather than going through Los Angeles County.
The Diamond Bar City Council approved a "Request for Proposal for Street
Sweeping Services in the City of Diamond Bar" in April 1990. On May 11, 1990
three (3) proposals were received in the City offices. The proposals were
received from the various companies with the following information:

WORK HISTORY

WORK HISTORY
Community Disposal Company has held the street sweeping
contract for the City of Temple City since 1964, there-
by giving us the necessary background in this industry.
We recently made a'corporate decision to expand this
division and through a bid process we were awarded the
contract for the City of West Covina.
Our Operations Manager, as well as the Shop Supervisor,
have had the responsibility for the street sweepers for
more than twenty-five years. With experienced person-
nel of this type, we are able to provide superior
service.
As with our solid waste removal companies, we apply the
same dedication to service and satisfaction for the
street sweeping operation.

A preliminary vacant land map has been prepared for presentation at the July
17th City Council Meeting. The map identifies various categories of vacant
properties, by type of ownership within the City, based on aerial photographs
dated March, 1989. Ownership type has been determined from the November 1989
County Assessor's Records. Since the information sources are dated. the
information will have to be updated, based upon field survey and current
Assessor's records, when they become available.
Tract and parcel maps which reserve areas for permanent open space have not been
identified, since the City is not yet in possession of all the tract and parcel
maps containing the conditions of approval from the County. Other open space.
such as land protected from development by deed restrictions or easements also
hasn't been identified. Vacant lands which have been approved for development
are not shown as vacant on the map.
The following charts summarize the data contained in the map which will be
presented on July 31st.

DATE: July 27, 1990 MEETING DATE: July 31, 1990
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Terrence L. Belanger, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Agreement for Interim City Planning Services
BACKGROUND:
The City Council authorized the position of City Planner, in the fiscal year
1990-1991 budget. The permanent City Planner position is currently being re-
cruited. However, it is not anticipated that the new City Planner will commence
work, before the end of September, 1990. In order to attain the objective of
executive level planning and zoning management, the City Manager was authorized
to seek a highly qualified Interim City Planner.
The City Manager, after an appropriate search, was fortunate to find that the
services of a highly qualified and successful municipal planner were available.
Mr. Irwin M. Kaplan was the Director of Community Development, for the City of
Beverly Hills. He served in that position for approximately fifteen (15) years.
Mr. Kaplan has recently served as the Interim Planning Director, for the City of
Pasadena. Mr. Kaplan's professional qualifications and references were excep-
tional.
The City Manager retained the services of Mr. Irwin M. Kaplan, effective June
29, 1990. The mutually agreed upon retainer was Seven Thousand Dollars
($7,000.00) per month. The retainer amount is the approximate equivalent of the
monthly total compensation (salary plus benefits) of the permanent City Planner
position.

Agenda Item - City Council
July 31, 1990 Meeting
Page Two
The City Manager has the authority to retain professional services of a value
not to exceed Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00), without formal City Council
authorization. The length of the estimated service that Mr. Kaplan will provide
will result in a payment for services greater than the City Manager's authoriza-
tion. Therefore, it is necessary for the City Council to authorize an agreement
that would include the estimated length of Interim City Planner services and the
monthly retainer amount; and authorize the City Manager to execute said agree-
ment. A copy of the proposed agreement for is included as a part of this memo-
randum.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a
letter agreement, for Interim City Planning Services, with Mr. Irwin M. Kaplan.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN,
I AM WRITING ON BEHALF OF THE DIAMOND BAR RANCH FESTIVAL. AS I AM SURE
YOU ARE ALL AWARE, THE RANCH FESTIVAL HAS BEEN A VERY SUCCESSFUL EVENT IN
PAST YEARS. APART FROM PROVIDING AN ENTERTAINING EVENT FOR THE COMMUNITY, IT
HAS BENEFITTED THE VARIOUS NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS IN THE CITY. LAST YEAR, WE
WERE ABLE TO DONATE IN AN EXCESS OF 43,000.00 DOLLARS BACK TO THESE GROUPS.
THIS YEAR WE HAVE FACED MANY OBSTACLES WHICH ARE TRANSLATING INTO
COSTING US DOLLARS. WE HAD TO CHANGE THE SITE FROM THE KAISER SITE TO LOT 2 OF THE
ZELMAN CORPORATE CENTER. IN ADDITION, THE COUNTY HAD INDICATED THAT THEY WILL
BE UNABLE TO FINANCE THE STAGE, SOUND AND LIGHTS AS THEY HAD GIVEN IN THE PAST.
WE ALSO WILL NOT HAVE THE ELECTRICAL SERVICE DONATED BY GTE THIS YEAR-
WE
EARWE HAVE SIGNED CONTRACTS FOR ENTERTAINMENT WITH THE CHARLIE DANIELS
BAND. IN ORDER TO MEET THE CONTRACT REQUIREMENTS FOR SOUND EQUIPMENT, IT WILL
BE NECESSARY TO CONTRACT WITH A COMPANY THAT SPECIALIZES IN AUDIO.
WITH OUR QUALITY ENTERTAINMENT SCHEDULED, WE EXPECT THE RANCH FESTIVAL
TO BE AS BENEFICIAL (IF NOT MORE) THIS YEAR AS IT WAS LAST. HOWEVER, IN VIEW OF
THE ABOVE "HITCHES" WE ARE IN A POSITION WHERE WE NEED AND "ADVANCEMENT' TO
MEET NECESSARY COMMITMENTS.
ENCLOSED IS A BID ( WE HAVE OTHERS, THIS ONE SUITS OUR NEEDS, BOTH
MONETARILY AND QUALITY WISE) FOR EQUIPMENT THAT WILL BE NEEDED. ANY
CONSIDERATION THE CITY OF DIAMOND BAR CAN GIVE TO HELP WITH THE EXTRA EXPENSES
WE ARE ENCOUNTERING WILL BE GREATLY APPRECIATED, AND IS DESPERATELY NEEDED.
ALSO ENCLOSED IS THE LIST OF LAST YEARS EXPEDITERS AND DONATIONS FOR YOUR
INFORMATION.

FROM: Terrence L. Belanger, Assistant City Manager
BACKGROUND
Several months after Incorporation, the City Council determined that the preferred
manner in which to provide City Planning and Zoning services was through contract
with a private planning service firm. To accomplish this objective, the City
terminated its agreement for Planning and Zoning Services with the County of Los
Angeles. Subsequently, the City entered into an agreement (December 6, 1989) with
Pacesetter Building Services, for a City Planning and Zoning Service. On February
6, 1990, following the resignation of the City Planning Director, Pacesetter
assumed the additional responsibility of Planning Services. The amended City
Planning Services agreement with Pacesetter Building Services expires on August
1, 1990.
In anticipation of the August 1, 1990 expiration of the current Planning Services
Agreement, the City Council authorized the issuance of a Request for Proposal
(RFP) for City Planning Services. The RFP was sent to qualified planning service
firms beginning June 18, 1990. The first proposal submittal date was July 5,
1990. The City received four (4) qualified proposals from:

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
COMPARATIVE FACTORS
(SUPPLEMENT)
The City Council of the City of Diamond bar has directed staff to
create a response process that provides for a more comparable
quantification of the two (2) solid waste collection and disposal
companies that Council has selected in consideration of the City's
solid waste collection and disposal hauler (Western Waste Indus-
tries and Community Disposal).
The supplemental assumptions and proposal rate form are included
herewith. The two (2) companies should factor the assumptions
into their cost projections and rates. Unless the assumption
changes the data included therein, the provisions, definitions,
specifications, contract form, enabling ordinance and other infor-
mation included in the initial response Request for Proposal for
Collection and Disposal of Residential, Commercial and Industrial
Garbage and Rubbish for the City of Diamond Bar should be utilized
in responding to this supplement.
The company should complete the proposal form and return it to the
City Manager's office, on or before Friday, August 3, 1990, at
4:00 p.m. The proposal form should be accompanied with detailed
summaries of the qualitative information/programs, specifically
requested in the assumptions. Proposal clarification meetings
will be scheduled, for Monday, August 6, 1990, to review the data
submitted.
Any questions, regarding the information surveyed to the compani-
es, should be addressed to Terrance L. Belanger, Assistant City
Manager, (714) 860-2489.
The City has created the below listed assumptions to provide for a
more precise comparison of the proposals submitted by the solid
waste collection and disposal companies. The companies are instr-
ucted to respond directly to the assumptions. Do Not offer alter-
native or substitution assumptions or proposals. This is a sup-
plemental proposal form. Nothing included herein should be con-
strued to obligate the City to select either of the supplemental
proposals; nor, should the City accept any financial liability for
the costs incurred, in the preparation of this proposal.
SUPPLEMENTAL PROPOSAL ASSUMPTIONS:
The following assumptions should be factored into the propos-
al rates. The purpose of assumptions numbered 1-6 is to re-
quire the responding company to detail the manner in which
the activities, problems or issues will be accomplished.
These and the remaining assumptions (Numbers 7-17) should be
factored into the supplemental proposl form(s):
1. Describe the program that would be developed for public in-
formation and public education related to implementation of
the franchise services, recycling, household, hazardous

The proposing firms were interviewed by the City Manager and Assistant City
Manager on July 10, 1990. Three (3) of the firms submitted proposals that called
for a two-tiered approach to fees for services. One tier was based on a planning
and zoning application fee percentage for services directly related to processing
an application. The other tier included fees for services based on a time and
material basis. The percentage of application fee for services proposed was as
follows:
Pacesetter 65%
Willdan 75%
Hogle 75 - 85%
Forma proposed a flat rate of $25,000 per month with an additional fee for other
services of $7,000 per month.
Because of the lack of predictability regarding the number of hours that would be
demanded over and above the percentage of fee -related services, the comparison
below utilizes the hours and hourly rates included in the respective proposals.
The cost of the City Planner was added to each proposal for comparison of total
Planning Service costs vis a vis revenues.
The estimated annual fees resulting from this computation were reduced by the
estimated total revenues from planning and zoning fees ($150,000). Also, there
is included, for comparative purposes, a proposal for in-house staff planning
services:

City Staff
$300,000
($150,000)
$150,000
The primary criterion for evaluating the provision of Planning Services is
achieving the lowest predictable cost for providing high quality services. Using
this criterion, the most cost effective way to provide quality services is by in-
house City staff. The major difference between the comparative costs is the
hourly rate for services.
The in-house City staff salary and benefit rates are fixed. They are not rate -
per -hour -of -work sensitive. On the other hand, the private consultants, fees for
services are extremely rate -per -hour sensitive.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve the proposal to provide City
Planning Services with City staff. Further, it is recommended that the positions
of Associate Planner; Planning Technician and Planning Consultant be authorized
in the Fiscal Year 1990-91 budget effective August 1, 1990.
