Upon approval, the construction drawings and documents will be prepared, followed by a final cost estimate, I Staff requested that the City Council approve the 4,000 square foot museum design, the building elevations, and the proposed materials, The preliminary cost estimate is approximately $660,000, with an additional $70,000 in optional items, The most significant reason for the increased cost estimate, which was above that originally established, is because the Needs Assessment identified a building size greater than anticipated, Ms, Ann Mooney of Sparano and Mooney (SMA); architects, presented information and answered questions regarding the design of the new museum, the building elevations, and the proposed materials, It was MOVED by Mayor Pro tem Harbichl, seconded by Council member Roncelli and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows to APPROVE the design plans for the Arcadia Historical Museum as presented; and, SPECIFY that the museum be named "The Ruth and Charles Gilb Arcadia Historical Museum", AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Councilmembers Harbicht, Kovacic, Marshall, Roncelli and Chandler None None MATTERS FROM ELECTED OFFICIALS I Councilmember RonceIli urged everyone to attend the play "Light Up the Sky" at the Pasadena Play House and enjoy the performance of a 1976 Arcadia High School graduate, Milan Dragicevich. Mr, Roncelli hoped that the City would be able to receive some of the tobacco rebate funds, Mr. RonceIli was pleased that the Citizens' Financial Advisory Committee's recommendation for a Request For Proposal is being implemented and the City will start preparing the annual City budget using that proposal. Mr. RonceIli welcomed Steven Deitsch, City Attorney, and noted, according to the latest report the City has twenty-one (21) pending claims and lawsuits, he would like to know what the goal is with regard to reducing the number of claims. Mr. Roncelli was pleased that the City now has two Code Services Officers on board, He hoped that the City could use some of the Code Services Officer's time on weekends because that seems to be the time when people put up illegal signs. Mr. Roncelli referred to articles written by Mayor Chandler and Councilmember Kovacic with regard to Measure C, He felt the bond issue passed because there was a legitimate reason for it. The citizens realized the need for a new police facility and voted for it. He hoped the City Council would join him in pledging that they will not spend more than $16 million for the police facility, I 2 11/16/99 I I I 41 :0258 MARSHALL Councilmember Marshall announced that the 45th Annual Holiday Homes Tour will be (HOliday Homes held on December 2,1999, from 9:30 a,m, to 8:00 p.m, Tour) (New Police Facility) Cn.3V. ~O N$f' (Quote) KOVACIC (Signs) (Historical Museum) (Band Festival) Ms. Marshall expanded an Council member Roncelli and Mr, Hoherd's comments stating, in part, that the $16 million appropriated far the police facility project should be adequate for what is needed, She felt if the Council put a cap of $16 million on this project, staff, planners and builders would be aware from the beginning where the Council stands, If the project can not proceed and succeed with $16 million, then something will have to be downsized or deleted, She believes the City Council has an obligation to the taxpayers to not spend more than that which has been allocated for this project, Ms. Marshall suggested Council give some thought to the proposed cap of $16 million, and a vote be taken, Councilmember Kovacic noted that at this point he is not willing to design or assist in designing a police station based on an educated guess of the needs assessment submitted by WMM Architects. He would like to know when a valid cost estimate is going to be available and, at that point he would be prepared to put a ceiling on the cost. In response to this question, City Manager Kelly stated, in part, that when the building or project design for the new police station is ready the Council should revisit the project and look at alternates or adjustments accordingly. Sometime in the future the Council will receive another report more refined as to the actual cost. After a brief discussion, and as suggested by City Attorney Deitsch, it was MOVED by Councilmember Marshall, seconded by Council member Roncelli and CARRIED an roll call vote as follows; to DIRECT staff to submit a more refined cost estimate to the City Council for consideration at a future meeting, for construction of the police facility, and a discussion of a cap on the cost of the project. AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Councilmembers Kovacic, Marshall, Roncelli and Chandler Councilmember Harbicht None In response to Councilmember Marshall's question, City Manager Kelly explained in detail the bidding procedures and process for the police facility project which included; value engineering and pre-bid conference, He would not recommend the involvement of the citizens in the process because of the legal iSSueS, Council member Marshall shared a saying by Kingsley, "There are two freedoms, the false, where a man is free to do what he likes, and the true, where a man is free to do what he ought." Council member Kovacic suggested putting the posting date on real estate for sale and/or lease signs in order for the City to know when the permitted period of posting a sign, which according to the code is six months, has expired, Mr. Kovacic congratulated Ruth and Charles Gilb on the design of the Historical Museum, He noted that it will be an exciting project and he is looking forward to the opening ceremony, Mr. Kovacic encouraged everyone to attend the Arcadia Band Review on Saturday, November 21, 1999. 3 11/16/99 (Downtown 2000) (Birthday Wishes) HARBICHT (Anoakia) (Armory Property) CHANDLER (Measure C) 7, OATH OF OFFICE (Fee & Wuo) 8, ROLL CALL 8a, MINUTES (November 2, 41:0259 Mr, Kovacic stated Council member Roncelli make some good points in regard to not spending more than $16 million on the police facility. He thinks it is important to remind everyone that no one on this Council voted for Downtown 2000 and to suggest that somehow, somebody was sitting on the Council and trying to pull something on the City of Arcadia is an insult to the previous Council. Mr, Kovacic felt that cynicism is really a disease of local politics and a healthy skepticism is important in dealing with City politics, I Mr. Kovacic thanked everyone for their birthday wishes and noted that Arcadia Fire Chief, Peter Bonano, was born the exact same day and the same year; November 16, , 1951, Mayor Pro tem Harbicht requested that the City Manager make the necessary arrangements for the Arcadia City Council to visit the Anoakia property, Mr. Harbicht noted that the armory property was originally owned by the City of Arcadia and was sold to the State for $1,00 in 1947. About twelve (12) years ago the state offered to sell the property back for $4.0 million. After negotiations the City purchased the property for $1,4 million for the express purpose of building a new police station, The day of the election for the bond measure was a very happy occasion for everyone in the City, particularly for some of us who had been there at the very start, Mr. Harbicht referred to a Council comment with regard to the Downtown 2000 project and the City spending too much money on that, noting there were a number of other projects that were done in conjunction with the downtown project, He felt to continue to harp on one project, ignores some other things that this City has done, which were on time and on budget; projects that the community could be proud of, such as: the Arcadia Public Library expansion, Fire Station #2 and construction of the Community Center. I With regard to the Fire Suppression District Measure, Mr. Harbicht stated, in part, that in order to cover the budget shortfall in the City, there were two choices; either make significant cuts in spending, or vote on additional taxes, The voters choose not to vote for additional taxes and they decided to cut services, As a result the City now has three men instead of four on each fire truck; does not have as many police officers as we did before; street sweeping is still every other week instead of every week; and a number of other cuts were made... To suggest that the City did not need the money is just simply not the case, The City needed the money and still does, Mayor Chandler thanked the citizens for voting for Measure C, City Clerk June Alford administered the Oath of Office to June Fee and John Wuo, incoming board members of the Arcadia Centennial Celebration Commission, Mayor Chandler expressed congratulations and presented each commission member with a City pin and an identification card. THE CITY COUNCIL RECESSED TO ACT AS THE ARCADIA REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY PRESENT: Agency Members Harbicht, Kovacic, Marshall, Roncelli and Chandler ABSENT: None It was MOVED by Agency Member Harbicht, seconded by Agency Member Kovacic and CARRIED to APPROVE the November 2, 1999 Minutes of the Arcadia Redevelopment I 4 11/16/99 I I I 41 :0260 1999) Agency Regular Meeting, (APPROVED) 8b, AMENDMENT TO The Redevelopment Agency received a request for financial assistance from Pok A DOWNTOWN Dots, a business currently leasing a building within the downtown area at 201 South First BUSINESS Avenue, They are requesting assistance to purchase a building within the downtown to ~;;;'~~;~~%N & relocate their business. The current Downtown Business Attraction and Expansion PROGRAM Program guidelines was adopted on March 3, 1996 which provides financial assistance (APPROVED) to new and expanding businesses in the Central Business District, This program does . not provide for relocation assistance for businesses within the City. In order to approve 06.\ 0 - ()~C. the POK A Dots request the Agency needs to amend the guidelines, POK A Dots is a business that has been in Arcadia for over fifteen (15) years, the last five in the downtown just outside the Redevelopment Project area, This business primarily involves the sale and rental of costumes and other related items, Due to a significant rent increase they need to relocate the business and would prefer to remain in Arcadia, The cost to purchase, renovate and relocate is very high and they requested $15,000 in financial assistance from the Redevelopment Agency. If a business qualifies for the assistance, an agreement is prepared and executed and recorded on the property. The request from Pok A Dots has been reviewed by staff for eligibility for this assistance, The one potential conflict with the Pok A Dots request and the guidelines is criterion No. 7 which reads in part "Business must be new to Arcadia, relocating from another City or expanding", The intent of the relocation restriction is to prevent the Agen.cy from assisting businesses from relocating from one part of the City to another. In this particular case. this busineSS is moving just a couple blocks, thus remaining in the same immediate area, In the discussion Agency Member Harbicht noted that this program is not a giveaway, this is an investment. The Agency will only do this as an investment, expecting it will pay back more than the Agency invested, He felt that this business will enhance the area and agreed with the staff recommendation, It was MOVED by Agency Member Harbicht, seconded by Agency Member Marshall and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows to AMEND the Downtown Business Attraction and Expansion Guidelines to include the language suggested by the City Attorney in Criteria for Financial Assistance, Item No.7, to read as follows: "Demonstrated need for financial assistance by application, Business must be new to Arcadia, relocating from another City, demonstrably prepared to relocate immanently from Arcadia to another City, or expanding", AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Agency Member Harbicht, Kovacic, Marshall and Chandler Agency Member Roncelli None ADJOURNMENT The meeting of the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency ADJOURNED to November 30, 1999 at 6:00 p,m" at the Community Center, 5 11/16/99 41:0261 9, CONSENT ITEMS I THE CITY COUNCIL RECONVENED 9a, MINUTES (11-2-1999) APPROVED the Minutes of the November 2,1999 Regular Meeting, 9b, 0.] ~N ~60AWARD CONTRACT (Legal Advertising - Remainder of 1999-2000 FY) AWARDED a contract for legal advertising to Core Media Group, Inc, DBA: Arcadia Weekly for the remainder of the current fiscal year; and, AUTHORIZED the City Manager to EXECUTE a contract in a form approved by the City Attorney. 9c. o ~ 30 ','If) RESOLUTION ADOPTED RESOLUTION NO. 6146 entitled: "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY NO, 6146 COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA TO APPROVE A RESOLUTION (Amendment OF INTENTION TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO CONTRACT FOR THE PUBLIC PERS Contract EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM MILITARY SERVICE CREDIT FOR LOCAL Military Svcs.
