City Council Members
Rohnert Park, Ca 94928
Dear Mayor Mackenzie and City Council Members:
Recently I submitted copies for each council member on the excellent article" Play to Extinction" written by Kevin D.
Williamson in the March 19, 2012
National Review magazine. I realize this is a general article focusing on New Jersey where one of my sons just relocated
for a job in Manhattan.
At the council meeting on April 10th a few council members zeroed in on the Green Center and the casino as a means
for economic development.
I call your attention to the last part of the article which states "When pursued beyond the limits of recreation, where
the main purpose after all is to'kill time', gambling subtracts from the national income" Call gambling a vice, call it an
addiction, call it a harmless diversion, call it anything you fancy -but don't call it economic development."
The biggest mistake these past 12 years has been the electorate i.e. Board of Supervisors and Rohnert Park Council who
refuse to put this on the ballot for the citizens
to vote as was recently done at Point Molate.
I apologize for this late letter however, my printer was out of commission when I submitted individual copies of the
article to each city council member.
Sincerely,
Eunice Edgington

BY KEVIN D. WILLIA`MSON
E are the Silver Horde, and we are descending
on chartered buses, on Chinatown buses, and on
the Greyhound "Lucky Streak" ;express 'bus we
come, on crutches and canes, lapping obesely
over the seats of mobility scooters, adjusting oxygen tubes, dis-
creetly nursing Big Gulp cups full of tequila and Pepsi through
beady straws at three in the afternoon, doing serious damage to
complimentary troughs of Cheez -Its and Famous Amos cook-
ies. We are getting comped. Free passes to the all -you- can -eat
buffet? Whatever: We have our own dedicated train, Amtrak's
Atlantic City Express Service (read: ACES), and, we come
roiling and thundering down the tracks. bearing :our. Social
Security checks, our welfare checks, and -quite possibly our rent
checks. We are the blue - rinsed, unhinged „diabetic American id
on walkers, and we are scratching off,_lottery:tickets the whole
way there as we converge from all points on the chime capital
of New Jersey —. because we are feeling lucky.
Funny: thing about Atlantic City: Nobody feels really obvi-
ously. lucky to live there. Its population is declining (it has lost
40 percent since its peak), and among the foot soldiers of the
gambling industry— blackjack dealers, scantily clad cocktail
waitresses, cab drivers —it is difficult to find anybody who
actually, lives in it. One lightly ciothed;entertainer working at a
particularly gamey establishment along a row of etnpty com-
mercial buildings, video stores, and the occasional. storefront
mosque,;all within a couple minutes' walk of the casino district,
snorted derisively at the notion of living in the city. "Oh, hell
no.:Too.dangerous.” That's AC: It's a great place for a visiting
go -go dancer, but she wouldn't want to live there. Touring the
local landscape of decay and disorder, it is hard to imagine why
a:whole range of American politicians =from such likely sus-
pects as Ed Rendell and Andrew Cuomo to lots of otherwise
conservative Republicans who really ought to know better —
look at the city's depressed and depressing precincts, its sad
coat of glitz (Sinbad! At the Tropicana!) and say to themselves:
"My state needs to get some of that action!
v. They had better think twice about what they are getting them-
selves .into. The issue of gambling is not a question of rah -rah
libertarians vs. no -no bluestockings: Nobody who looks seri-
ously at the nexus between politics and gambling could pos-
sibly conclude that what is happening in Atlantic City, in
Pennsylvania, on the Indian reservations, or in the lottery rack-
et represents the operation of the free market. It is a cartel in
most cases and a monopoly in many, all with the blessings of
the state. The arrangement, in the words of one scholarly study
of casinos in Montana, leaves government "a dependent partner
in the business of gambling." If gambling advocates were sim-
ply making a principled case that putative adults have the right
to entertain themselves with their own money according to their
own tastes (or, let's be serious, lack thereof), then their argu-
ment would be persuasive. But what is in fact happening is that
politicians smell money, and so government itself is getting into
the game, taking gambling to be a fruitful model of economic
development.
While`the data are hotly contested, it is hard to deny that gam-
bling has taken more out of Atlantic City than Atlantic City has
taken out of gambling. A report prepared by the California
Research Bureau on the - potential for gambling in that state
found that while many of the AC casinos had done well, there
was little secondary economic impact: "The success of gam-
bling in Atlantic City," the report finds,
has done little to revitalize the rest of Atlantic City and its busi-
ness community. Atlantic City has been described as two cities.
One is the casinos, and the other is a city of boarded -up build-
ings with a unemployed minority work force. Gambling; has
largely failed in achieving the objectives of job growth for local
residents and city-wide economic development.
,.The federal government's National Gambling Impact Study
Commission notes that while gambling advocates favorably
cite the "Mississippi Miracle," the economic boomlet that that
state experienced after legalizing casino gambling, "in reality
the unemployment rate. in Mississippi. declined at about. the
same rate as the national average in the years from 1992. to
19918." A University of Chicago report found that there-`',as "no:
change in overall per capita income" as the result of gambling
liberalization in the cases it studied. Governments, always
eager to out-Enron Enron in the accounting- shenanigans olym-
pies, earmark gambling proceeds. for popular programs, then
reduce general- revenue support for those.programs.and :_use the
extra money to increase spending elsewhere. It'sl a lot like slot
machines: The,house exploits the occasional jackpot to distract
the schmucks from the fact that losses are a statistical in-
evitability. And while the accounting gets pretty hairy; it's not
too hard to find entries on the losing side of the ledger: In.,one
study of Atlantic City; 22 percent of the local homeless report-
ed that gambling was the proximate cause of their condition.-pr.
You wouldn't know that from the ventisomethings.
They're the young ladies' auxiliary to the Silver Horde,
climbing leggily out of Lamborghinis and QT-Rs.iu
fi-ont of Borgata, and they are a tribe apart: stiletto heels with
jeans, the inevitable Starbucks venti cup, Marlboro Light con
trails. Borgata is.by most accounts the swankiest, place .in
Atlantic City, which tells you a lot about Atlantic City, because
Borgata is a dump, albeit a kind of expensive one. It has some
dimly lit nightclubs for the ventisomethings to frolic in, and it's
big on overpriced restaurants serving food that was trendy five
years ago (Kobe burgers, Asian fusion), the kind of place that
has architectural spaces meant to be imposing but a mainte-
nance schedule that's running a bit behind: oversized glass
showers and stained carpets. It's a mind jarring mix, a lot of
polished marble and women in stylish dresses, with something
in the middle that resembles nothing so much as a Chuck E.
Cheese's full of septuagenarians with mobility impairments.
36' HATIONALREVIEW I w ,iv.na[ionalreviv.w.com MARCH 19, 2012
(Seriously, visit around four in the afternoon it's wheelchair
derby in there.) Unlike the relatively cheery Caesars, which
gold -leafs every surface with an inch of kitsch in a winking
acknowledgement of the underlying plebeianness of the venue,
Borgata affects a .kind of Parisian hauteur like a down -on-
his -luck aristocrat expecting things to get worse, which is what
it is: In February it reported declining revenues and a 7 percent
drop in operating profits. Gaming - industry analysts are gloomy
about its outlook as the new $2.4 billion Revel casino prepares
to open its doors.
;For that new competition, Borgata can offer its gratitude to
the great state of New Jersey and to Governor Chris Christie,
thanks to whom taxpayers will be partners in, among other
things,,a burlesque show:at Revel called . "Royal: Jelly.?' (The
burlesque show will.not be the .only source of eye;candy: The
casino also is implementing some unusual business practices,
including a plan; to fire all of its ,servers, hostesses, and wait-
resses every four. or six years and force them to reapply for their
jobs, in a more- nakedly - brutal- than -usual strategy for weeding
out anybody who doesn't look good in tall :heels and a short
skirt) :Revel began as a project headed up by the hapless
Morgan <Stanley, which. owned 90 percent of the partnership
behind the casino. The bailed -out investment. bank, facing big-
ger. problems and unimpressed by recent Atlantic. City .rev-
enues, in!2010 took. a, billion- dollar writedown :and pulled the
plug on the half - finished project. Governor Christie moved in
with a $261 million bailout of the orphan casino the bailed -out
bank bad bailed out on. Some of that money will be used for
Construction and operating expenses, ?but $70.million.will sit
quietly in an, account earmarked for the project's new Wall
Street >financiers. so that they'll have something to walk away
with if the'casinotanks.,-
Governor Christie had better hope it doesn't: In February, he
released a budgetproposal that contains some; implausibly opti-
mistic, financial projections: Among other .things, he's. betting
'that gambling revenues are going to rise by. l4,percent, or near-
Iy.a half - billion, dollars, resuiting in $40 million inmew taxes.
While Govemor Christie is; putting -up taxpayers' money for
:Revel, he can at, least say lie's getting government: out of the
way: There was abloodbath at the Casino Control.Commission,
which was cut from. 260 regulators and. staff:to 65, its budget
reduced from.$24 million to $9 million:{Taxpayers have little
reason to celebrate that development: The commission's budget
is funded largely by fees ebarged;to casino operators, not by state
taxes.) :Lest. some of :those axed regulators end up on New
Jersey's unemployment rolls, the state has been merrily signing
waivers allowing them to go to work for the casinos, which they
are ;'forbidden by Jaw to do: for two years after leaving the com-
mission. Governor Christie is executing what amounts to a state -
level:takeover;of Atlantic City's gaming. district, and he is, as
theyaay, all in. His optimism, is,not shared by many gambling -
industry analysts,: including Deutsche Bank Securities managing
director Andrew Zarnett, who says that he fears the project will
not produce any new revenues: "Revel casino will mostly can-
nibalize existing operators, ". he told the Press of Atlantic City.
Which is to say, the supply of ventisomethings is limited.
There's only so much play at the top of the market, but that's not
where all the action resides, and the question that is seldom
asked is: If New Jersey is successful in increasing its casino rev -
enues, and Pennsylvania is successful, and Indiana. is success-
ful, and Mississippi is successful,. and the Indians are success-
ful, and Connecticut is successful —where exactly does the
money come from?
THE money will come from the Silver Horde. Casinos
have long loved the high rollers, the whales who still
rule in Vegas, but the low rollers are the new bread and
butter for casinos in the rest of the country. If the politicians
have their way, the Silver Horde will not have to hop on the
Lucky Streak and go to Atlantic City: Atlantic City is coming to
them.
Having long since shaken offthe last vestiges of its ancestral
Quaker sobriety, Pennsylvania has opened up :casinos every-
where from obscure Pittsburgh suburbs to Valley. Forge; right
near the monument to George' Washington's brutal winter there,
and the state flirted with licensing one: on the edge of the bat-
tlefield at Gettysburg (a dispute over which :legal wrangling
continues). The Gettysburg project was: stopped because its
opponents included people with some real money;and influ-
ence, but money and influence are not.evenly distributed, :which
is why, there's a Harrah's casino in Chester, one of Pennsyl-
vania's poorest cities (per capita income $9,052) and its most
murder-happy (24 homicides in 2010 among.3 3,972 residents),
a place where the school district just.plain ran out of money in
January, requiring a state bailout.
There's a lot of broke to go around: In a particularly depress-
ing sign of the times, the parent company of the struggling
Miami Herald sold the paper's Biscayne Bay headquarters to
the Malaysian conglomerate Genting, which, in addition to its
plantations and oil- and -gas businesses,:is one of the world's
largest gambling concerns. It;is the largest casino operator in
the United Kingdom, and it is expanding remorselessly in the
United States. The Pequot tribe may be the name on the brass
plate at the giant Foxwoods Resort in Connecticut, but it was
Genting, through its Kien Huat Realty subsidiary, that.put the
money up for the project. Likewise the Seneca Indians' casino
at . Niagara Falls and the Wampanoags' development in
NATIONALREVIEW 37
Massachusetts. Kien Huat Realty is the controlling shareholder
in the Monticello Raceway in the Catskills, and Genting built
the casino at the Aqueduct Racetrack in New York City.
Interestingly, Genting also has the contract to build the new
New York City convention center — conveniently located next
door to its casino in Queens. '(Seriously— New -York thinks
America is coming to visit Queens.) Among Genting's demands
for the project is that it be given a` monopoly on "video -poker
licenses in the area. It's also asking for a sweeter revenue- sharing
deal with the state, and says that an amendment to New York
State's constitution, which forbids table games:and many, other
kinds of gambling, would be welcome. Governor Cuomo has
pronounced himself favorably disposed; which puts him at odds
with a long line of ilegendary New :Z'ork politicians opposed to
state - sanctioned gambling from Fiorello LaGuardia to Governor
Cuoino's own father. (The Little-Flower,: who made a name for
himself cracking "down ongambling dens in 1930s New York
and smashing their :paraphemalia;with• a sledgehammer-must
significantly" how often the: locals :woul'd'pop'in to gamble:
"When I was in Atlantic City, to have twelve,to fifteen tripsi out
of customers; they were VIPs;'' he said: At Parx, the low rollers
are coming in two or three times a week; or 150 to 200 trips a
year. "We have customers who give us $25, $30 five times a
week." Theycall these local-yokel joints "convenience casinos,"
and they are the future: gambling anywhere, anytime: Some casi-
nos already are experimenting with handheld devices so that
players can piss their money away in the bathroom.
HE industry term of art that denotes success vis -a -vis any
individual gambler is: PLAY To EXTINCTION: The mandate
is to keep gamblers tied to the machines until they have
handed over all the money they have to hand. over. There are a
great many ways to do this, but one way to keep the grannies teth-
ered to the "Sex and the City: Change of a Dress" video slot
machine is to keep them literally tethered: Casinos have begun
offering rewards cards that give gamblers points based on their
volume of play. The cards are affixed to neck lanyards and have
to be kept plugged in to the machine to accrue points, producing
a strangely umbilical sight.
The statistics are astounding: Gambling rates for the 65- and -up
set went from 35 percent in 1975 to 80 percent in 1990. By 1996,
gambling was a bigger business than movies, recorded music,
sports, live entertainment, and cruise ships -- combined. And
while there is a great deal of debate about gambling addiction and
its role in the casino industry's business model a government
study foundthat "disordered gambling". rates are double for pop-
ulations. hVing within 50 miles of a casino. If cancer rates were
double in the 50 miles surrounding a bubblegum factory; you can
bet ithat the bubbleguin factory. would get the full Erin
Brockovich treatment. ,
And it's not just the gambling rates: In years after the first
casinos were built; Atlantic City went from, having the 50th-
highest per capita crime rate in the United States to being No. 1
on the list. That's a bigprice to pay, but many' in government are
willing to pay it— for a'big enough cut of the action:
".The nanny state is bade news," Davies says. "But when you
start looking into gambling and what the companies do they're
not just running a business: The more problematic part is the gov=
emment's roles It's a joint venture between the govermnent :and
the casinos, a'nd gaming pays a higher tax rate than do other.busi_
nesses. In Pennsylvania, slot- machine revenue is taxed at 55 per-
cent rate -55 percent of the cut. Government is not minori ty
partner, but a majoritypartner.''

CITY of R%WRT PARK
Dear Councilman:
April 15, 2012
My name is Maria Gutierrez, owner and operator of Lolita's Market located at 1471 Southwest Blvd.
Rohnert Park at the University Square shopping center. We have been serving the Rohnert Park and
Cotati community since February of 2009.
As you may know the University Square shopping center has a lot of vacant retail space. Since 2009,
Lolita's market has done its part in bringing business back to University Center. After getting to know our
customers, and expanding our services and products, we have had customers let us know that they have
not been to the center for years and are glad we are here.
Lolita's Market did not obtain an off sale license for alcohol from the city of Rohnert Park and because
we do not have an off sale license we cannot give our customers full service. We have applied for the off
sale license with the Police Department and are waiting for reply. If our request is denied, we would like
to apply for an appeal.
I am here asking for your support to help advocate for Lolita's Market. Our customers have encouraged
us to fight for the license and we would like to have the ability to best serve our customer base. For
years customers have asked, "Why don't you have alcohol for regular purchase ?" After explaining to
them our scenario they understand. Recently, a loyal customer started a petition with other customers'
signatures on hopes of helping us obtain our off sale license for alcohol. Enclosed is a copy of the
signatures our customers have given us.
Thank you for your time Councilman and we hope to gain your support not only to help our business
grow, but to best satisfy our customers.
Sincerely,
Maria Gutierrez+

U r�
NOTIFICATION OF APPLICATION FILING BY PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY (PG &E): TO RECOVER IN RATES COSTS ASSOCIATED
WITH THE OAKLEY GENERATING STATION PROJECT (A. 12 -03 -026)
What is the Oakley Generating Station Project?
The Oakley Generating Station (Oakley Project) is a new 586 megawatt (MW) combined cycle facility that will be located in Oakley, California. The
Oakley Project is being developed by Contra Costa Generating Station, LLC (CCGS), wholly owned by Radback Energy. The Oakley Project is highly
efficient and will provide significant operating flexibility as well as a number of important ancillary services to the California Independent System
Operator.
Detailed information about PG &E's Application:
On March 30, 2012, PG &E filed an Application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to approve the terms and conditions, including
ratemaking and cost recovery, of the Amended and Restated Purchase and Sale agreement for the Oakley Project. The Oakley Project is forecasted to
be operational by 2016, at which point it would be transferred by the developer to PG &E.
Will Electric Rates Increase?
Yes. PG &E is requesting an increase in electric rates for the cost of the new utility owned generation. If the Application is approved by the CPUC, rates
for existing bundled customers (those who receive electric generation, as well as transmission and distribution services from PG &E) will increase by
$222 million, or 1.9 %, in 2016, (relative to current rates), which is the first and highest single year of recovery. In general, rates for existing direct access
and community choice aggregation customers (those who purchase their electricity from non -PG &E suppliers) will not be subject to change. Finally,
customers who depart PG &E's bundled service in the future may be responsible for a portion of these costs via a non - bypassable charge.
If the Commission approves the Application, a typical residential customer using 550 kilowatt -hours per month will see the average monthly
bill change from $89.73 to $91.05, an increase of $1.32 per month. A residential customer using 850 kilowatt-hours per month, which is about
twice the baseline allowance, will see the average monthly bill change from $185.92 to $191.16, an increase of $5.24 per month. Individual bills
may differ.
PG &E will provide a more illustrative allocation of the potential rate increases among customer classes, under its proposal, in a bill insert that will be
mailed directly to customers in mid -April through early May.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
For more details call PG &E at 1- 800 -PGE -5000

You may request a copy of the application and exhibits by writing to:
Pacific Gas and Electric Company
Oakley Generating Station Application
P.O. Box 7442, San Francisco, CA 94120
THE CPUC PROCESS
The CPUC's Division of Ratepayer Advocates (DRA) will review this application.
The DRA is an independent arm of the CPUC, created by the Legislature to represent the interests of all utility customers throughout the state and
obtain the lowest possible rate for service consistent with reliable and safe service levels. The DRA has a multi - disciplinary staff with expertise in
economics, finance, accounting and engineering. The DRA's views do not necessarily reflect those of the CPUC. Other parties of record may also
participate.
The CPUC may hold evidentiary hearings where parties of record present their proposals in testimony and are subject to cross- examination before an
Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). These hearings are open to the public, but only those who are parties of record may present evidence or cross -
examine witnesses during evidentiary hearings. Members of the public may attend, but not participate in, these hearings.
After considering all proposals and evidence presented during the hearing process, the ALJ will issue a draft decision. When the CPUC acts on this
application, it may adopt all or part of PG &E's request, amend or modify it, or deny the application. The CPUC's final decision may be different from
PG &E's application.
If you would like to learn how you can participate in this proceeding or if you have comments or questions, you may contact the CPUC's Public Advisor
as follows:

TO: STATE, COUNTY AND CITY
OFFICIALS
NOTICE OF APPLICATION OF PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY FOR RECOVERY OF
COSTS OF THE 2011 MARKET REDESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY UPGRADE INITIATIVE
On April 16, 2011, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG &E) filed an application with the California Public
Utilities Commission (CPUC) requesting changes to its electric rates effective January 1, 2013.
Specifically, the request seeks to recover in rates the costs PG &E has incurred to comply with the
mandated Market Redesign and Technology Upgrade (MRTU) initiative.
The MRTU initiative, which was developed by the California Independent System Operator and approved
by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, was launched on March 31, 2009. The MRTU initiative
changed the manner in which electricity is procured and sold by participants in newly redesigned markets
in California. Costs presented in this application represent actual costs to implement the MRTU initiative
that were incurred by PG &E through December 31, 2011.
The total electric revenue (the total amount PG &E collects in rates from all customers) requirement request
is $7.9 million. PG &E requests that electric rates designed to recover this amount become effective on
January 1, 2013.
Will rates increase as a result of this application?
Yes, approval of this application will increase electric rates by less than one percent for bundled
service customers (those who receive electric generation, as well as transmission and distribution service
from PG &E) and for customers who purchase electricity from other suppliers (e.g., direct access and
community choice aggregation). The revenue requirement of $7.9 million will increase PG &E's bundled
system average rates, relative to current rates, by 0.07 percent in 2013.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
To request a copy of the application and exhibits or for more details, call PG &E at 1-800 -743 -5000.
For TDD/1TY (speech- hearing impaired), call 1- 800 - 652 -4712.

THE CPUC PROCESS
The CPUC's Division of Ratepayer Advocates (DRA) will review this application. The DRA is an
independent arm of the CPUC, created by the Legislature to represent the interests of all utility customers
throughout the state and obtain the lowest possible rate for service consistent with reliable and safe
service levels. The DRA has a multi - disciplinary staff with expertise in economics, finance, accounting and
engineering. The DRA's views do not necessarily reflect those of the CPUC. Other parties of record will
also participate.
The CPUC may hold evidentiary hearings where parties of record present their proposals in testimony and
are subject to cross - examination before an Administrative Law Judge (ALJ). These hearings are open to
the public, but only those who are parties of record may present evidence or cross - examine witnesses
during evidentiary hearings. Members of the public may attend, but not participate in, these hearings. After
considering all proposals and evidence presented during the hearing process, the ALJ will issue a draft
decision. When the CPUC acts on this application, it may adopt all or part of PG &E's request, amend or
modify it, or deny the application. The CPUC's final decision may be different from PG &E's application.

SUB: Community Outreach for Proposed Southwest Boulevard Safety Enhancements
ISSUE:
Staff submitted a grant application for $131,120 in Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA)
program funds for proposed improvements on Southwest Boulevard between Adrian Drive and
Burton Avenue. The proposed grant - funded improvements include pavement repair, slurry seal,
restriping that will reduce the number of lanes from 4 to 2, installation of bike lanes and a
pedestrian - activated flashing beacon at Almond Street.
The Council will be asked at their May 8, 2012 meeting to consider whether to continue with the
grant application for these proposed enhancements. Because the proposed lane reconfiguration is
a significant change from what the travelling public and residents in the area are accustomed to,
staff conducted outreach recently to raise awareness of the proposed project, gauge community
interest, and gather input. The result of these efforts is shared in this memo to help Council with
their deliberations on May 80h
The following outreach was conducted:
Direct mailing on April 27th, including a project description, City staff contact information for
comments, and announcement of the May 3"' community meeting. (The May 8th Council
meeting packet includes this mailing.) The recipients included:
0 364 households within 500' radius of proposed project
o Cotati - Rohnert Park Unified School District (CRPUSD)
o 9 individual CRPUSD schools
0 2 private /parochial elementary schools in vicinity and on Southwest
o Sonoma State University
• Rohnert Park Chamber of Commerce
• Benson Investments (Wolf Den Center)
The mailer was also posted on the City's website and Facebook, and information sent out
through Twitter
® Athletic leagues were e- mailed the mailer or otherwise contacted about the project and
community meeting through the Bicycle Advisory Committee (BAC) members and Parks and
Recreation Commission BAC liaison

• The BAC and Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition also received copies of the mailer.
• The Rohnert Park Patch posted an article on May ? about the community meeting with a
section for comments
• A community meeting was conducted on May 3`d , 7:30 PM at Burton Avenue Recreation Center
INPUT RECEIVED AT THE MAY 3RD COMMUNITY MEETING
At the community meeting, staff explained the proposed project; the grant funding and how it
relates to the proposed lane reconfiguration, bike lane installation and crossing enhancements; and
the safety benefits staff believes the project will bring. Staff took written and verbal comments
from the 11 meeting participants and used question /answer and open forum to discuss various
concerns. The participants' comments were written on paper for all to view. Participants then
"voted" for comments that reflected the issues that were most important to them individually.
The comments and percentage of votes received were:
"Pannla an too fast nn SnuthwPSt Blvd. This would slow them." 132%
• "Give bikes their own lane so I don't hit them with my car." (24% )
• "Project will increase bike usage." (12 %)
• "Big cars, SUVs. One lane each way would eliminate some accidents. Friend killed crossing 4
lanes by car not stopping." (8 %)
• "Need traffic signal at Burton and Southwest Blvd." (8 %)
• "Will still have 2 lanes at left turn on Almond." (4 %)
• "Almost hit kid riding wrong way in berm." 4 %)
• "Putting a light makes sense at crosswalk at Almond." (4 %)
• "Bushes and trees @ Burton: People can't see, almost hit me several times. Trim up trees." (4 %)
COMMENTS RECEIVED
Staff received 6 written responses, which include 4 received via e -mail, and 2 which were submitted
at the community meeting.
• All favored the crossing enhancement
• Three were concerned about traffic
• Two wanted the bike lanes
• One was concerned about emergency response

If I were politically correct I wouldn't tell you my first thoughts upon reading the idea of reducing SW Blvd to 2 lanes.
Since I'm too old to let being politically correct bother me I'll tell you .... inane, insane, ludicrous, stupid. I think I should
add "discriminatory ...... we're on the "other" side of the tracks. I highly doubt anyone thought of doing the same to Golf
Course Drive or the Expressway. Besides being a very unnecessary expenditures that we can't afford, I have no idea why
this even came into consideration. No one worried about it when Middle School children crossed that street every school
day-so why now? I drive that section of SW regularly, every time I go to my grandkids', my doctor's, my bank, softball
practice, Taco Bell, Penngrove, etc etc. I don't see it being any different than any other street in RP. There's only parking
on one side of the street because there are no homes on the west side—just a large school ground that very few people
use anymore. Something is being built where the old firehouse used to be ... could the new tenant have money and want
this change? Please do not make getting around RP more time consuming than it is—we've already spent way too much
on signals that make transversing RP a nightmare..please don't make it even worse. I'd like to know who came up with
this hairbrain idea so I definitely would not vote for them again!!! The public should know these things ... we have that
right, or we should if we don't!!
I'm hoping my 2 daughters who I share a house with here in RP will also let you know they feel exactly the same as I do,
and were just as dumbfounded this even came into consideration.
Neither they nor I would have a problem with putting crosswalk lights at SW & Adrian Drive, as that's where so many
people run the stop signs & make crossing the street for pedestrians so dangerous - many more pedestrians than the
other street you've recommended for this expenditure.
I'll be traveling that section tomorrow night... not to the meeting, but to "S" Park for the 40th celebration of our RPWLKS
league in which I played for 39 years till 2009...a much more constructive way to spend my time.

I received your notice yesterday of the meeting TODAY! If I didn't know
better I would think that this delay was intentional.
in these economic times, this is a ridiculous proposal. This town has
become a bilge haven. I see one bike to possibly every 51,00- cars, yet more
roadway is proposed to be eliminated for bikers welfare and safety. If we
want to make bike safety a priority then EVERY BIKE SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO
BE REGISTERED (like dogs), and penalties should be imposed for failure to
do so. EVERY REGISTERED BIKE OWNER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE A
BICYCLE SAFETY COURSE. I say this because of the few bikers that I see,
they inevitably do not follow bicycle safety rules. If bikers rode on -the
correct side of the street, and stopped at stop signs and lights, everyone
would be safer.
I DO think that the -Flashing pedestrian crosswalk light (like the one in
Cotati) IS A GREAT SOLUTION! PLEASE DO NOT WASTE MY TAX DOLLARS!!!

(property owner of multiple homes in Rohnert Park)

To City of Rohnert Park:
I am writing concerning the proposed plans to Southwest Boulevard and have included some
of my concerns that may not have been considered as well as my personal experiences with
crossing for years at Almond and Southwest Blvd. I would like to propose a different solution, a
light for pedestrians be put in and the low shrubs be removed and possibly trees so traffic can
see pedestrians, especially on the south side of the street. This pedestrian light would be less
costly and would correct the problem that pedestrians have in crossing safely and keeping costs
down for unnecessary changes, which in my opinion would be good for our City budget as well
keep the City more prepared for a disaster as well.
I have lived at my residence since 1984 and have raised my two children who are 30 and 27
now. I have done child care here in the community, have worked with special need children and
adults my whole life, and currently work in Mental Health Rehabilitation. I also am involved as
chairperson for Disaster Preparedness and coordinate with the county for disaster planning. I
am also a cyclist and use the roads here in town. I have almost been hit by cars 6 times and
have experienced not being seen crossing from the south side to north until half way across. I
have not taken the time to write but have wanted to write the city before about making this a
safer crossing.
Southwest is one of our major arteries in town that fee our community for fire, rescues and
just getting from one part of town to another. We have lost our fire station here in our
neighborhood and fire calls already take longer. This change would make it take even longer for
response to our areas of residence and it will likely make homeowner's insurance premiums
rise. I certainly cannot afford to put more money out nor do I think other homeowners will
want to. Do we really want to slow down response more? Where will the traffic move to get
out of the way for emergency vehicles? How much slower will emergency vehicles travel?
Minutes can be precious for saving a loved one or homes! Something similar happened to me
recently; two cops with red light racing almost head on me while 1 was waiting to make a left.
There was no were for me to go with a car in the lane on my right. What if we had flooding and
needed to evacuate resident and get emergency equipment in? We already have poor planning
in our town with areas that only have one or two ways in and out in some areas.
Already it is difficult at times to turn into or out of Almond. In my experience trying to make
a left into or out of Almond is difficult with stop signs creating a steady flow of traffic. With two
road lanes, making a right is possible because traffic can move to the other lane. People just do
not yield to right or left turn from Almond. And I am not interested in another stop light for
traffic. The ones we have are long and don't change over more quickly when less volume.
Some malfunction so can't make a left at times. There are no homes directly. It is just an artery
to housing areas to, to freeway, to shopping and schools. Why should we slow done to 15 20
miles per hour or less on this road?
What about children and cyclists. Placing a bike lane in these two short stretches does not do
a lot for cycling. It does not create a useable street to ride on going west on Southwest Blvd. I
just use the path on the south side of the street and plan my trip using different roads or come
back on the south side. We also have bike paths with no traffic. Dumping cyclist in these areas
does not help, so might as well save the money for something else. Last thing we need is
wasting money with tight budgets. I do not think these two short stretches would be great for
young children to be riding on with busses and cars. Creating a safe area to cross would make
sense for children, cyclists, and pedestrians. Do we really want young children biking on
Southwest to ride down a short strip of southwest to get to Almond when they don't pay
attention with cars on streets in the neighborhoods? It seems to me it would be safer to be on
the side walk and cross with a light! And So many parents these days drive their kids to school
so is it needed? Parents driving children to and from school will cause even more traffic and
increase if school on corner is ever used again. More traffic and problems making left and right
turns. And have you considered what happens when you narrow lanes of traffic? At my Place
of work they took out two lanes and now the traffic backs up and we can't make a left when the
light is red, this was never a problem before. And when I slow down to turn into the driveway
people almost rear end me. And then when the bus stops everyone has to stop now. Wow,
sometime it is for a wheel chair and it takes a while. If there are two lanes the person can go
around and traffic keeps flowing. Same when someone is parking. If you go ahead with your
plans then this will be a problem as well at Southwest and Burton bus stop.
If you were living in my neighborhood would you want slower services for fire, medical and
disasters, slower traffic and more rear ends, a bike lane that does not make sense, more money
spent and the problem of visibility still a problem? I hope that the City of Rohnert Park can
make a smart decision for a change for our community. I believe that placing a pedestrian light
and removing shrubs and possibly trees would be an excellent plan to help the community by
providing a safe crossing area and not spending money to create problems and increase
expenses. Please consider carefully.
Thanks for listening,

Subject: In support of proposed improvements on Southwest Boulevard
Dear Mr. Barnes:
I would like to express my support for the proposed bike and pedestrian safety improvements on Southwest
Boulevard. I am a 15 year resident of Rohnert Park and have lived on Beverly Drive for 11 years, 1 % blocks
away (about 1300 feet) from that stretch of Southwest. I strongly believe that the car lane elimination,
addition of bike lanes and the flashing crosswalk light will make this part of Southwest safe for all kinds of
travel: driving, biking, and walking.
1 can well represent the car user: I travel at least 3 times a day on that exact stretch of road, morning, noon
and evening in my car, and I want bikes to have their own lanes. 1 am a careful driver, but when bikes need to
share the road because there are cars parked on the street by the play fields, it feels a little tight for us all. We
don't need 4 lanes of car traffic; there simply isn't enough traffic on Southwest to warrant 4 lanes. (it isn't the
central Rohnert Park thoroughfare it might have been decades ago.) We can certainly give up some space for
bike lanes.
Putting in a bike lane would also help put some distance between my car and people as they exit their cars on
the driver's side, not to mention cars that are trying to parallel park along Southwest, especially around the
eastbound curve. I want them to have room to manuever as I travel in my car behind them, and the bike lane
would provide that. The fields are used often enough (3 seasons of baseball, t -ball, softball, soccer, football
and cheer -- and that's not including the year -round morning and evening joggers on the track) to warrant
keeping parking and creating a safe buffer with bike lanes.
As a pedestrian —.I walk my dog regularly through that park and fields and on Southwest — I want bikes to have
their own lanes so they can use that instead of the pathway and sidewalk.
As someone who tried the Team Bike Challenge several years ago as a Novice Bicyclist, I tried to ride everyday
between City Hall and my home on Beverly Drive. I tried Southwest both ways, and I was not comfortable
sharing the lane with cars. When cars actually went the posted speed limit of 35, it was actually scary to me,
especially around the curve. (I used Almond Street for most of the month after that.) If there was a bike lane,
I most certainly would have felt better riding on Southwest, not having to learn to "Share the Road ", but
learning to actually bike in my own bike lane!
About the Almond Street crossing, when the middle school was still there, I had seen more than one occasion
of kids almost getting hit as they crossed because one car would stop for them, they'd get 1/3 of the way into
the street, and a second car with a distracted driver would almost go through the crosswalk. Not a good
situation, and it would most certainly be helped by eliminating that 2nd lane, and having the bike lane for
them to inch out into the street (meaning they aren't in an actual car lane).
I will conclude this by saying that change is sometimes difficult to understand -- as I think reducing 4 lanes to 2
seems -- but this change will bring good results.
I hope that this project meets with enough support to carry it through so that my neighborhood is an even
better place to be.

CITY OF ROHNERT PARK
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: May 8,2012
Department: Development Services
Submitted By: Patrick Barnes, Deputy City Engineer
Agenda Title: Approve and Adopt the Plans & Specifications for the Water Storage Tanks 1,
3, 4 and 5 Exterior Coating, Project No. 2008 -03 and Award the Contract to
Olympus Painting and Sandblasting.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. Approve and Adopt the Plans & Specifications for the Water Storage Tanks 1, 3, 4 and 5
Exterior Coating, Project No. 2008 -03.
2. Accept the bids and consider awarding the contract for the Water Storage Tanks 1, 3, 4
and 5 Exterior Coating, Project No. 2008 -03 to Olympus Painting and Sandblasting in the
amount of $499,549.50.
Bid Prices:
The engineer's estimate for the project was approximately $560,000.
A summary of the bids is received on the project is shown in the table below:
Company
Bid Amount.
Olympus Painting and Sandblasting
$499,549.50
Euro Style Management
$672,000.00
Blastco, Inc.
$703,664.00
Utility Services Company
$801,400.00
BACKGROUND:
The City has seven welded steel water storage tanks ranging in age from 15 to over 40 years old.
There are no records of the coatings on the exteriors of several of the older tanks having ever
been replaced. Occasional touch -up work to cover blemishes and graffiti are all that's been
performed.
1
ITEM NO. 3.C.1
Tanks 1, 3, 4 and 5 each have exhibited severely deteriorated exterior coatings for some time
now, prompting an evaluation of their coating conditions and this project to recoat their exteriors
to ensure continued years of service life. The interiors of two of the tanks were recently
recoated, therefore, the interiors were not considered with this project except for minor repairs to
interior coatings damaged as a result of other portions of the work.
Each welded steel reservoir has features that no longer meet current Water Works standards. To
take advantage of having the tanks out of service a single time, minor upgrades will be
performed to restore the tanks to current standards as part of this project. Examples of upgrades
include installation of perimeter roof vents, replacement of undersized central roof vents,
installation of air gaps on overflow piping, and removal of extraneous inlet and outlet piping no
longer being used plus other minor upgrades.
ANALYSIS and OPTIONS CONSIDERED:
The City retained the services of Brelje & Race Consulting Engineerings (B &R) to provide a
technical memorandum for the Evaluation of Tank Exterior Coatings and Appurtenances for
Rohnert Park Tanks 1 3 4 and 5, dated November 11, 2011. Pursuant to providing appropriate
coating recommendations, B &R evaluated the current state of the coatings on each tank, the
adequacy of tank appurtenances based on current design standards, and site constraints that
might affect the type of coating system recommended. The City had previously analyzed the
coatings on each tank for lead content, and provided those results to B &R for inclusion in the
evaluation and memorandum. B &R performed the following tasks for each tank:
• Visual Inspection of the tank and site
• Tank exterior coating adhesion /cohesion tests
• Tank exterior coating thickness tests
• Appurtenance review for code compliance and potential rehabilitation needs
• Appurtenance review for potential seismic upgrades
• Photo documentation of tank and site conditions
Based on the field investigations, historical tank data, laboratory test results, and input from City
staff several options for each tank were developed. The following scope of improvements were
selected by staff from the options presented:
Tank1 i�1n East r + +: Ave. 3n� nnn gal. +_. _ A l n'7n�.
1 ank 1 � / / 7 Bast Cotat1 ye. V ,000 gal. — Consllul�lell 1 7 � V1:
1. Remove loose coatings, clean and overcoat over the well adhering base coats using two
coats of acrylic paint system. (Base coats have high lead content, but very good adhesion
characteristics suggest long life remaining).
2. Modify overflow piping to provide an air gap and seismic protection.
3. Add force - balanced flexible expansion joints to the inlet /outlet piping for seismic
protection.
4. Replace the level gauge.
5. Add 3 perimeter vents meeting current AWWA standards, and replace the small center
vent with a new vent meeting current standards.
2
ITEM NO. 3.C. i
Tank 3 1434 Jasmine Circle — 300,000 gal. — Constructed 1981):
1. Strip existing coatings down to bare metal and recoat with zinc based primer and two
additional coats of acrylic paint system.
2. Modify overflow piping to provide air gap and seismic protection.
3. Add 3 perimeter vents meeting current AWWA standards, and replace the small center
vent with a new vent meeting current standards.
4. Replace inlet control valve.
Tank 4 (4351 Grandview Wav — 300.000 s2al. — Constructed 1982):
1. Strip existing coatings down to bare metal and recoat with zinc based primer and two
additional coats of acrylic paint system.
2. Modify overflow piping to provide air gap and seismic protection.
3. Remove extra inlet /outlet piping.
4. Add 3 perimeter vents meeting current AWWA standards, and replace the small center
vent with a new vent meeting current standards.
5. Replace inlet control valve.
Tank 5 (4999 Snyder Lane — 1,000,000 gal. — Constructed 1985):
1. Strip existing coatings down to bare metal and recoat with zinc based primer and two
additional coats of acrylic paint system.
2. Modify overflow piping to provide air gap and seismic protection.
3. Add 3 perimeter vents meeting current AWWA standards, and replace the small center
vent with a new vent meeting current standards.
4. Replace inlet control valve.
5. Replace inlet control valve vault and cover.
The acrylic paint system was selected for its durability, strong adhesion characteristics, ability to
maintain its gloss, and ease of repair or recoat. The acrylic also exhibits `dry -fall' characteristics
which prevent overspray from damaging surrounding properties. Although, in each of these
cases, the painting contractor will be required to fully contain each tank due to the close
proximity of neighboring properties and to prevent sandblasting residue from fouling the air in
the immediate vicinity.
Brelje & Race prepared plans, specifications and a final cost estimate based upon the above
scope, prepared the bid package, and administered the bidding process.
This project is intended to rehabilitate existing facilities, and bring them up to current standards.
1. There is no expansion of existing facilities, the project will only serve existing customers.
Therefore, the Project is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) pursuant to the following authorities:
3
ITEM NO. 3.C.1
1. Section 15301 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, for the operation, repair,
maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing or minor alterations to existing public or
private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment or topographical features involving
negligible or no expansion of use beyond that existing at the time of the lead agency's
determination, including publicly -owned utilities used to provide sewerage or other
public utility services, and;
2. Section 15061, subdivision (b)(3), because CEQA applies only to projects which have the
potential for causing a significant effect on the environment and it can be seen with
certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant
effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA."
A Notice of Exemption was filed for each tank with the Sonoma County Clerk and California
State Clearinghouse in December, 2011.
FISCAL IMPACT /FUNDING SOURCE:
The funding source for this project is Water Utility - Capital Projects Fund, the Water Utility Fund
and the 2005 Water Revenue Bond.
The bid is below but in -line with the engineer's estimate.

CITY OF ROHNERT PARK
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: May 8, 2012
Department: Development Services
Submitted By: Darrin Jenkins, PE, Director of Development Services / City Engineer
Prepared By: Eydie Tacata, Management Analyst
Agenda Title: Authorizing City Manager to Execute Program Supplement
Agreement No. 011 -N to Administering Agency — State Agreement
No. 04 -5379R for Federal Funding for the Arlen Drive and East
Cotati Avenue Overlays Project (Federal Project # RPSTPLE-
5379(019) / City Project #2010 -07)
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute
Program Supplement No. 011 -N to the Administering Agency — State Agreement for Federal Aid
No. 04- 5379R.
BACKGROUND: The Regional Transportation Plan — the Bay Area's transportation funding
blueprint — has programmed $563,000 in Federal Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds
for the construction phase of the Arlen Drive & East Cotati Avenue Overlays Project. This
$1,114,750 project (which includes design, construction, construction management, inspections,
contingency and administration) was approved by the City Council on June 28, 2011 as part of
the 5 -Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP). This project is designed and is presently being
advertised for bid. A bid date of May 15, 2012 is planned.
The City must execute the attached Program Supplement Agreement No. 011 -N to
Administering Agency —State Agreement No. 04 -5379R in order to access the STP funds.
Administering Agency —State Agreement No. 04 -5379 is an existing master agreement between
the City and State for disbursing and administering Federal finds for projects. Program
Supplement Agreement No. 011 -N will be a project- specific attachment to the Master
Agreement. The City must also provide a certified resolution identifying the project for which
funding is provided and the official authorized to execute the Program Supplement Agreement.
ANALYSIS: These Federal funds are distributed to local agencies through the Metropolitan
Transportation Commission's (MTC) Local Streets and Roads Shortfall (LSRS) Program. The
Arlen Drive & East Cotati Avenues Overlays project was specifically developed to fulfill the
LSRS Program goals of pavement rehabilitation and preventative maintenance on the Federal -
Aid System. All Federal -aid requirements have been fulfilled thus far to ensure this project can
be reimbursed with Federal funds. Without executing the Program Supplement Agreement and
providing a certified resolution, the City would not be able to avail of these funds, and the funds
would be de- obligated. This action would not only make the funds unavailable for the City's use;
it could potentially jeopardize future funding to the City and to Sonoma County as a whole by
1
ITEM NO. 3.C.2
implying to MTC that Rohnert Park is uninterested or unable to deliver projects with these funds,
and /or that Federal funds are simply not needed by local jurisdictions in Sonoma County.
OPTIONS CONSIDERED:
(1) The Council may deny the resolution authorizing execution of the Program Supplement
Agreement. This option is not recommended for the reasons discussed in the Analysis above.
(2) The Council may execute the Program Supplement Agreement, but not provide a certified
resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute the Program Supplement Agreement.
This would result in an incomplete agreement submittal. Reimbursement processing will be
delayed and additional staff time will be spent in discussions with Caltrans about alternatives
to providing a certified resolution. This option is not recommended.
FISCAL IMPACT /FUNDING SOURCE:
The net fiscal impact of this proposed Council action is $563,000 in restricted, project - specific
Federal funds to the City in the form of reimbursements for eligible construction costs of the
above -named project. Reimbursement requests are required to be made within 6 months of
contract award, and no less frequently than every 6 months thereafter. The final project
reimbursement is made after the City accepts the project, submits final reports of expenditure,
and Caltrans review and accepts the City's final report. Final project reimbursements typically
occur about 6 months after project completion.
Funding sources for this project are detailed in the table below. Use of the. Federal monies
requires at least an 11% match in local funds; local match funds comprise about 39% of the
estimated construction cost. No general fund monies are used to fund this project.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

Marilyn Ponton, Planning & Building Manager
Authorizing and Approving an Agreement with North Fork Associates
for Planning Consulting Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Consideration of Resolution No. 2012 -42 Approving an
Agreement with North Fork Associates for Planning
Consulting Services
BACKGROUND:
The City has major land development projects in Specific Plan / Planned Development Areas
underway or scheduled for hearing, action or implementation in 2012/2013. The City anticipates
processing the environmental documents, entitlements, and annexations on these areas within the
next year. Rohnert Park remains unique in the concurrent processing of more than one major
project along with the implementation of recently approved projects.
ANALYSIS: North Fork Associates has been providing limited long range contract planning
services to the City on the specific plans including environmental review. This work load,
combined with the current staffing levels in the Development Services Department (one
planner), creates a need for additional planning resources to meet the City's goals for economic
development.
Long range planning is the process to review, analyze and entitle projects with a long range
planning horizon. Examples include specific plans such as Southeast, University District,
Northeast and planned developments such as Sonoma Mountain Village and general plan related
entitlements. Current planning involves the day to day review and entitlement processing of short
term projects (24 Hour Fitness, Starbucks, Oxford Suites). Saving a few months or years on the
development project entitlement process means earlier creation of jobs, earlier demand for
supplies and materials from our local suppliers, and ultimately more tax revenue for the City.
The planning work associated with processing specific plans and planned developments is fully
reimbursed by the developers of these projects with no General Fund impact.
ITEM NO. 3.C.3
OPTIONS CONSIDERED:
Delay processing of specific plans and planned developments. This option is not
recommended as it may expose the City to liability and it also delays progress of
development projects such as the Northwest Specific Plan, the Northeast Specific Plan
and implementation of the Wilfred Dowdell Specific Plan.
Contract for limited planning services including environmental review during the
concurrent processing of major projects until the projects are approved. When work is
complete, then the outside professionals are easily released. Fluctuations in work load
are easily addressed as the outside professionals will not be given work unless there is
more than City staff can process in a timely manner. This method has the advantage that
we can control what the outside professionals work on to make sure the work is
reimbursed and there is no General Fund Impact.
FISCAL IMPACT /FUNDING SOURCE:
Development Deposit Accounts: $75,000. These are costs fully reimbursed by developers at no
cost to City and would be charged to the respective developments and projects.

umbrella. Coverage shall be provided on a "pay on behalf" basis, with defense costs payable in addition
to policy limits. Policy shall contain a provision obligating insurer at the time insured's liability is
determined, not requiring actual payment by the insured first. There shall be no cross liability exclusion
precluding coverage for claims or suits by one insured against another. Coverage shall be applicable to

Exhibit "A"
Insurance procured pursuant to these requirements shall be written by insurers that are admitted
carriers in the state of California and with an A.M. Bests rating of A- or better and a minimum financial

General conditions pertaining to provision of insurance coverage by Consultant. Consultant and City
agree to the following with respect to insurance provided by Consultant.
Consultant agrees to have its insurer endorse the third party general liability coverage required
herein to include as additional insureds the City, its officers, elected officials, employees, agents,
and volunteers using standard ISO endorsement No. CG 20 10 or an approved equivalent. If
completed operations coverage is excluded, the policy must be endorsed to include such coverage.
Consultant also agrees to require all contractors, and subcontractors to do likewise.
2. No liability insurance coverage provided to comply with this Agreement shall prohibit Consultant,
or Consultant's employees, or agents, from waiving the right of subrogation prior to a loss.
Consultant agrees to waive subrogation rights against City regardless of the applicability of any
insurance proceeds, and to require all contractors and subcontractors to do likewise.
3. The worker's compensation policy is to be endorsed with a waiver of subrogation. The insurance
company, in its endorsement, agrees to waive all rights of subrogation against the City,.its officers,
elected officials, employees, agents, and volunteers for losses paid under the terms of this policy
which arise from the work performed by the named insured for the City.
4. All insurance coverage and limits provided by Contractor and available or applicable to this
agreement are intended to apply to the full extent of the policies. Nothing contained in this
Agreement or any other agreement relating to the City or its operations limits the application of
such insurance coverage.
S. None of the coverages required herein will be in compliance with these requirements if they
include any limiting endorsement of any kind that has not been first submitted to City and
approved of in writing.
6. No liability policy shall contain any provision or definition that would serve to eliminate so- called
"third party action over" claims, including any exclusion for bodily injury to an employee of the
insured or of any contractor or subcontractor.
7. All coverage types and limits required are subject to approval, modification and additional
requirements by the City, as the need arises. Consultant shall not make any reductions in scope of
coverage (e.g. elimination of contractual liability or reduction of discovery period) that may affect
City's protection without City's prior written consent.
8. Proof of compliance with these insurance requirements, consisting of certificates of insurance
evidencing all of the coverages required and an additional insured endorsement to Consultant's
general liability policy, shall be'delivered to City at or prior to the execution of this Agreement. In
the event such proof of any insurance is not delivered as required, or in the event such insurance is
canceled at any time and no replacement coverage is provided, City has the right, but not the duty,
to obtain any insurance it deems necessary to protect its interests under this or any other agreement
[131
12086041 80078/0012 Revised: 10/27/10
Exhibit "A"
and to pay the premium. Any premium so paid by City shall be charged to and promptly paid by
Consultant or deducted from sums due Consultant, at City option.
9. Certificate(s) are to reflect that the insurer will provide 30 days notice to City of any cancellation
of coverage. Consultant .agrees to require its insurer to modify such certificates to delete any
exculpatory wording stating that failure of the insurer to mail written notice of cancellation
imposes no obligation, or that any party will "endeavor" (as opposed to being required) to comply
with the requirements of the certificate.
10. It is acknowledged by the parties of this agreement that all insurance coverage required to be
provided by Consultant or any subcontractor, is intended to apply first and on a primary, non-
contributing basis in relation to any other insurance or self insurance available to City.
11. Consultant agrees to ensure that subcontractors, and any other party involved with the project who
is brought onto or involved in the project by Consultant, provide the same minimum insurance
coverage required of Consultant. Consultant agrees to monitor and review all such coverage and
assumes all responsibility for ensuring that such coverage is provided in conformity with the
requirements of this section. Consultant agrees that upon request, all agreements with
subcontractors and others engaged in the project will be submitted to City for review.
12. Consultant agrees not to self-insure or to use any self - insured retentions or deductibles on any
portion of the insurance required herein and further agrees that it will not allow any contractor,
subcontractor, Architect, Engineer or other entity or,person in any way involved in the performance
of work on the project contemplated by this agreement to self- insure its obligations to City. If
Consultant's existing coverage includes . a deductible or self - insured retention, the deductible or
self - insured retention must be declared to the City. At that time the City shall review options with
the Consultant, which may include reduction or elimination of the deductible or self- insured
retention, substitution of other coverage, or other solutions.
13. The City reserves the right at any time during the term of the contract to change the amounts and
types of insurance required by giving the Consultant ninety (90) days advance written notice of
such change. If such change results in substantial additional cost to the Consultant, the City will
negotiate additional compensation proportional to the increased benefit to City.
14. For purposes of applying insurance coverage only, this Agreement will be deemed to have been
executed immediately upon any party hereto taking any steps that can be deemed to be in
furtherance of or towards performance of this Agreement.
15. Consultant acknowledges and agrees that any actual or alleged failure on the part of City to inform
Consultant of non - compliance with any insurance requirement in no way imposes any additional
obligations on City nor does it waive any rights hereunder in this or any other regard.
16. Consultant will renew the required coverage annually as long as City, or its employees or agents
face an exposure from operations of any type pursuant to this agreement. This obligation applies
whether or not the agreement is canceled or terminated for any reason. Termination of this
obligation is not effective until City executes a written statement to that effect.
[141
1208604v] 80078/0012 Revised: 10 /27/10
Exhibit "A"
17. Consultant shall provide proof that policies of insurance required herein expiring during the term of
this Agreement have been renewed or replaced with other policies providing at least the same
coverage. Proof that such coverage has been ordered .shall be submitted prior to expiration. A
coverage binder or letter from Consultant's insurance agent to this effect is acceptable. A certificate
of insurance and/or additional insured endorsement as required in these specifications applicable to
the renewing or new coverage must be provided to City within five days of the expiration of the
coverages.
18. The provisions of any workers' compensation or similar act will not limit the obligations of
Consultant under this agreement. Consultant expressly agrees not to use any statutory immunity
defenses under such laws with respect to City, its officers, elected officials, employees, agents, and
volunteers.
19. Requirements of specific coverage features or limits contained in this section are not intended as
limitations on coverage, limits or other requirements nor as a waiver of any coverage normally
provided by any given policy. Specific reference to a given coverage feature is for purposes of
clarification only as it pertains to a given issue, and is not intended by any party or insured to be
limiting or all- inclusive.
20. These insurance requirements are intended to be separate and distinct from any other provision in
this agreement and are intended by the parties here to be interpreted as such.
21. The requirements in this Section supersede all other sections and provisions of this Agreement to
the extent that any other section or provision conflicts with or impairs the provisions of this
Section.
22. Consultant agrees to be responsible for ensuring that no contract used by any party involved in any
way with the project reserves the right to charge City or Consultant for the cost of additional
insurance coverage required by this .agreement. Any such provisions are to be deleted with
reference to City. It is not the intent of City to reimburse any third party for the cost of complying
with these requirements. There shall be no recourse against City for payment of premiums or other
amounts with respect thereto.
23. Consultant agrees to provide immediate notice to City of any claim or loss against Consultant
arising out of the work performed under this agreement. City assumes no obligation or liability by
such notice, but has the right (but not the duty) to monitor the handling of any such claim or claims
if they are likely to involve City.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

Public Works & Community Services
Johnny Chung, Project Manager
John McArthur, Director of Public Works & Community Services
Consent Calendar— Contract Change Order for Well #12 Rehabilitation
Project 42011 -09
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize and Approve a Contract Change Order with Bartley Pump for Repair Work for Well
#12 Rehabilitation Project #2011 -09.
The recommended change order of $7,874 is greater than 10% of the original contract award of
$9,627. The City Manager's approval threshold for contract change orders is up to 10% of the
original contract; this contract change order exceeds the City Manager's threshold and therefore
must be approved by the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
The rehabilitation project for Well 412 was awarded and contracted to Bartley Pump on February
22, 2012 and construction began on March, 5, 2012. The work being performed for the Well #12
Rehabilitation Project is routine in nature and must be done on a recurring basis for all of the
City's production wells in order to maintain design well production capacity.
Potable water wells are made of two primary components — the well casing, and the well pump.
The well casing has two main functions: 1) serves as a support and housing for the well pump;
and 2) screens and filters sediment and other material from entering the pump and the potable
water system.
With recurring use, groundwater well production capacity diminishes over time as fine particles
accumulate near the well inlets and clog the pump casing screens. This gradual build -up of
sediment reduces the well's pumping (production) capacity. In addition to reducing water
production capacity, the sediment build up also puts more "strain" on the pump which increases
energy consumption.
Well rehabilitation projects such as this are designed to remove recurring sediment build -up
thereby restoring well capacity and reducing energy consumption. Rehabilitation maintenance
can be performed in a variety of ways — it is typically done through mechanical cleaning,
swabbing, blasting, back flushing, or a combination of these techniques.
ANALYSIS:
The Well #12 Rehabilitation project was intended to clean the screen section (pump inlet) only
and did not anticipate or include repair work on the actual pump itself. However, through casing
ITEM NO. 3.C.4
the rehabilitation project, staff uncovered two severe problems with the pump that will require
immediate repair. While conducting a standard video inspection of the well shaft based on the
initial scope of work for this project, the video revealed a 2 -foot break in the steal shaft at about
281 -feet below the ground. This break can be repaired with a stainless steel sleeve wedge.
Second, it was discovered that the cap plate at the top of the shaft (the discharge head) has severe
rust damage that is beyond retrofitting and would need to be replaced in order to restore the well
back to operational status.
Bartley Pump Repair, who was awarded the initial rehabilitation project, is currently mobilized
on site and is capable of performing these needed repairs. Staff recommends approving the
attached change order to allow Bartley Pump to continue with the project.
Based on our recent experience, it is reasonable to expect that future well rehabilitation projects
will require pump replacements on a recurring basis. Staff will therefore include this type of
anticipated work item into future project specifications as part of the total base bid.
OPTIONS CONSIDERED:
Since the contractor is already mobilized at the project site, it would not be feasible to bid this
repair work as a separate project during this phase of the well rehabilitation process. Also,
bidding the additional repair work would delay the project, add unnecessary costs, and incur
additional staff time to conduct the bidding process and to manage a second contractor. The unit
pricing from Bartley Pump submitted with the initial bid was provided under a competitive bid
environment which already included the cost to manage the project.
Based on this experience, staff learned that future well rehabilitation projects will likely require
similar repair work and recommends including these as alternatives in future well rehabilitation
contracts. If the repair work is not required after inspection, then it can be removed from the
contract by a deductive change order.
FISCAL IMPACT /FUNDING SOURCE:
Funding for this project is from the Water Enterprise.

COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM TRANSMITTAL REPORT
Meeting Date: May 8, 2012
Department: Development Services
Submitted By: Patrick Barnes, P.E., Deputy City Engineer
Submittal Date: November 15, 2011
Agenda Title: Update of Public Facilities (PF) Fees
Requested Council Action:
Item No. 5
Approve a Resolution updating the Public Facilities Fee for all development within the
City of Rohnert Park by repealing the Fee Schedule set forth in Attachment 1 to
Resolution No. 2011 -112 and replacing it with an updated fee schedule.
Summary: The City's General Plan policies require new development to mitigate the impacts of
growth on the City's various infrastructure and service systems. On November 8, 2011, the
Council considered and adopted the 2011 Update to the Public Facilities Finance Plan (2011
Update). The 2011 Update included modifications to the land uses, infrastructure and costs
included in the PFFP. These changes reflect the City's most current plans around new
development. The 2011 Update also consolidated the PF Fee Program and the Sewer Capacity
Charge Program into a single PF Fee program. This consolidation improves both transparency
and flexibility within the PF Program. Finally, the 2011 Update identified ways to reduce the
costs of the PF Program which results in a reduction in the overall costs of mitigating new
impacts, and therefore a reduction in fees charged to new development.
On November 8, 2011, the Council introduced and held a public hearing on Ordinance 840
which makes changes to Chapters 3.28, 13.26 and 13.4 of the Municipal Code, which govern the
administration of the current PF Fee Programs. Ordinance 840 makes these changes. No
comments were received from the public on the Ordinance.
On November 22, 2011, the Council adopted Ordinance 840. While Ordinance 840 describes the
overall administration of the PF Fee Program, the Ordinance provides that the actual PF Fees
will be set by resolution. This allows fees to updated, from time to time as necessary to reflect
the impacts of development, without the need to update the Municipal Code.
On November 22, 2011, the Council adopted Resolution No. 2011 -112 which establishes Public
Facilities fees based upon the 2011 Update. The City set the amount of the fee based on the 2011
Update and adopted a fee schedule set forth in Attachment 1 to Resolution No. 2011 -112. Due to
a clerical error, the Attachment 1 presented to the City Council was not the most current version
of the Public Facilities fee schedule. Staff recommends that the City Council correct the clerical
error by updating the fee schedule with the fee schedule set forth in Attachment IA, attached
hereto. The PF fees set forth in Attachment 1 A are designed to supersede those same PF fees in
Attachment 1, but shall have no effect on the remainder of Resolution No. 2011 -112. Adopting
an accurate Public Facilities fee schedule is to the benefit of all parties involved in developing
property because it assures that each development supports its fair share of needed facilities.
Resolution No. 2012 -44, would adopt a new PF Fee schedule that is consistent with the 2011
Update the Public Facilities Finance Plan, which has been previously approved by Council.
At this time, staff is requesting Council to adopt the Resolution in order to allow the new fee
schedule to go into effect, consistent with Council's previous approval of the updated PFFP.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF ROHNERT PARK UPDATING THE PUBLIC
FACILITIES FEE SCHEDULE FOR ALL DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE CITY
OF ROHNERT PARK BY REPEALING AND REPLACING THE FEE
SCHEDULE ESTABLISHED BY RESOLUTION NO. 2011-112
WHEREAS, the General Plan of the City of Rohnert Park requires that new development pay
its proportionate share of the cost of capital improvements made necessary by that new

WHEREAS, on November 8, 2011 the City Council of the City of Rohnert Park conducted

determined that a single fee program covering all planned facilities provides a more clear and
easily administered method for complying with such General Plan policies;
WHEREAS, pursuant to Resolution No. 2011 -112 the City Council of the City of Rohnert

WHEREAS, the City set the amount of the fee based on the 2011 Update and adopted a fee
schedule set forth in Attachment 1 to Resolution No. 2011 -112;
WHEREAS, due to a clerical error, the Attachment 1 presented to the City Council was not

WHEREAS, the City Council finds and determines as follows:
A. The 2011 Update complies with California Government Code Section 66001 by establishing
the basis for imposition of fees on new development. In particular, the 2011 Update:
1. Identifies the purpose of the fee;
2. Identifies the use to which the fee will be put;
3. Shows a reasonable relationship between the fee's use and the type of development
project on which the fee is imposed;
OAK #4849- 0375 -5791 v]
4. Shows a reasonable relationship between the need for the public facility and the type of
development project on which the fee is imposed because the new facilities are sized to
accommodate the increased population and increased vehicle trips that will be generated
by each type of development; and
5. Shows a reasonable relationship between the amount of the fee and the cost of the public
facility or portion of the public facility attributable to the development on which the. fee is
imposed because the proposed fees are proportional to the new population and new traffic
generated by each type of development.
B. The fees collected pursuant to this Resolution shall be used to finance the public facilities
described or identified in the 2011 Update or other public facility master plans as may from
time to time be adopted by the City Council.
C. After considering the specific project descriptions and cost estimates identified in the 2011
Update, the City Council approves such project descriptions and cost estimates, and finds
them reasonable as the basis for calculating and imposing an updated PF Fee.
D. The projects and fee methodology identified in the 2011 Update continue to be consistent
with the City's General Plan including recent updates to the General Plan.
E. The 2011 Update categorically exempt from environmental review pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act guidelines section 15061(b)(3). The intent of the PF Programs, the

environmental impacts which have been identified in environmental analyses of other
planning efforts, including the General Plan EIR.

impacts which have been identified in environmental analyses of other planning efforts, including the
General Plan EIR.
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby resolved by the City Council of the City of Rohnert Park, that:
1. Amount of Fee. The PF Fee for various classes of land use and various benefiting areas are set
forth in Attachment 1. The land uses classes set forth are intended to be generally consistent with
the Land Use Framework outline in the General Plan including recent updated to the General Plan
and that Land Use Framework should be consulted as necessary to support accurate determination
of fees.
2. Use of Fee. The fee shall be solely used: (a) for the purposes described in the 2011 Update; (b)
for reimbursing the City for the development's fair share of those capital improvements already
constructed by the City; or (c) for reimbursing developers who have constructed public facilities
described in the 2011 Update or other facility master plans adopted from time to time by the City
Council where those facilities were beyond that needed to mitigate the impacts of the developers'
project or projects.
3. Automatic Increase. The PF Fee will automatically increase on July 1 in each year hereafter in
accordance with any increases in the Engineering News Record Construction Cost Index for the
San Francisco Bay Area for the fiscal year ending on such July 1.
4. Fee Review. Annually, as part of the budget process, the City Manager shall review the estimated
cost of the described capital improvements, the continued need for those improvements and the
reasonable relationship between such need and the impacts of the various types of development
pending or anticipated and for which this fee is charged. The City Manager shall report his or her
findings to the City Council at a noticed public hearing and recommend any adjustment to this fee
or other action as may be needed,
5. Judicial Action to Challenge this Resolution. Any judicial action or proceeding to attack,
review, set aside, void or annul this resolution shall be brought within 120 days of the date of
adoption of this resolution.
6. Severability. If any provision or clause, or paragraph of this resolution or the imposition of a PF
OAK 114810- 8876 -1098 Q
fee for any project with the 2011 Update or the application thereof to any person or circumstance
shall be held invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the other provisions of this resolution or
other fees levied by this resolution which can be given effect without the invalid provisions or
application of fees, and to this end the provisions of the resolution are declared to be severable.

Agenda Title:
Southwest Boulevard Safety Enhancements
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff seeks direction from Council regarding a proposed repaving and safety enhancement project on
Southwest Boulevard eligible for $131,120 in Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) grant
funding.
BACKGROUND:
On April 12, 2012, Development Services staff submitted an application to the Sonoma County
Transportation Authority (SCTA) for $131,120 in funds from the TFCA Program for the Southwest
Boulevard Bike Lane Gap Closure and Traffic Calming Project.
TFCA funds are granted by the Bay Area Air Quality
Management District (BAAQMD) to projects that reduce
vehicle emissions. Projects such as new bike facilities,
arterial management, and traffic calming are eligible for
these funds; however, these projects must be on roads
that satisfy the grant program criteria. The segment of
Southwest between Adrian Drive and Burton Avenue is
one of few roads in Rohnert Park that would be eligible
as it meets a threshold level of car traffic, has an
opportunity to add new bike lanes, and can benefit from
traffic calming and safety enhancements that would
encourage more walking.
The proposed project is for pavement repair, slurry seal,
reconfiguration of lanes and restriping of the segment of
Southwest Boulevard. (See figure on right for project
location.) The proposed reconfiguration is to reduce the
number of through lanes from 4 to 2, i.e., remove I travel
lane in each direction. Turn lanes would remain. This
would leave room for new bike lanes to be installed on
both sides of the street while preserving all existing on- street parking next to the ballfields. The
project would also include installing a pedestrian- activated flashing beacon at the mid -block
crosswalk on Southwest at Almond Street.

would leave room for new bike lanes to be installed on
both sides of the street while preserving all existing on- street parking next to the ballfields. The
project would also include installing a pedestrian- activated flashing beacon at the mid -block
crosswalk on Southwest at Almond Street.
ITEM NO
An informational memo (Attachment A) was sent to the City Council on April 20, 2012. A mailing
(Attachment B) was also sent on April 27, 2012 to residents within 500' of the proposed project area.
The mailing provided information about the proposed project, invited comments, and announced a
meeting on May 3, 2012, 7:30 PM, at the Burton Avenue Recreation Center for citizen input.
DISCUSSION:
Much of the rationale for the proposed project is detailed both in the April 20`x' City Council memo in
Attachment and the April 27`x' mailing to residents in Attachment B. This Analysis section provides
additional information and addresses concerns brought up in other traffic calming and restriping
projects implemented in the City and that citizens may have about this proposed project.
Removing lanes will tie up traffic, won't it?
"Level of Service," or "LOS," is a measure used by traffic engineers for how well a road operates in
terms of traffic flow and safe driving conditions. LOS is described by the letters "A" through "F,"
with "A" being the best and "F" being the worst. Traffic studies of this proposed change from 4 to 2
lanes on Southwest indicate that the LOS will re►nain at "C," even at complete build -out of the City.
The controlling factor in traffic flow is the intersection stopping and movements, not the number of
lanes. At the intersections, there will be separate left turn lanes, and where right turns are made, there
will be spare room to pull to the right, out of the car through lane. This arrangement addresses a
complaint staff received when meeting with the public on proposed striping changes on the Camino
Colegio paving project. The public reported that the 4 through -lane configuration on Southwest
required people making turns to stop in travel lanes, creating dangerous situations.
How will removing lanes make people drive slower?
The changes in Southwest Boulevard will help control speeding, another major concern of citizens.
With l through -lane, a person going the speed limit will control the speed. With multiple lanes,
speeders weave around drivers travelling the speed limit.
If you add bike lanes, won't you be taking away parking?
The proposed configuration will not reduce parking. It will make
parking near the park safer. While meeting with the public on the
Camino Colegio project, we were told that they liked the idea of
being able to step out of their parked cars into a bike lane rather
than a car lane. (See picture, right, of "buffer" space created by a
bike lane next to parking lane.) This benefit will occur next to the
park area on Southwest, where teams practice, families and
friends come to watch games, and visiting teams compete in
various sports much of the year.
How does reducing the number of lanes help pedestrians?
Won't a flashing sign be enough?
The City has received a number of requests to enhance crosswalks. One of the best ways we can
enhance a crosswalk is to reduce the distance and number of lanes crossed. This reduces probability
of the "multiple- threat" crash, when one vehicle stops for a pedestrian in a travel lane on a multi -lane
road, blocking the view of a second motorist who does not stop, resulting in a crash. (See illustration
on page 3, and also diagram in Attachment B.) Many citizens have talked about flashing beacons as
ITEM NO.
enhancement, and this project proposes to add that type
of enhancement, but staff emphasizes that reducing the
travel lanes that need to be crossed is perhaps more
important. A few years ago in Petaluma, high school
students were hit in a multiple- threat accident. while
crossing in a lighted crosswalk as a group.
As discussed in Attachment A, making Southwest
Boulevard safer to cross is even more relevant if the
school district implements the "John Reed and Waldo
Rohnert Elementary School Reconfiguration." With the
elementary schools on each side of Southwest going to "single- span" structures, students who once
stayed on one side of Southwest to attend their neighborhood school from Kindergarten through 6"'
grade would instead spend Grades K to 3 at one school on one side of Southwest, and then switch to
the other school for Grades 4 to 6. This would result in more students and their families crossing
Southwest to get to their schools.
The former Mountain Shadows Middle School may become a fully - operating middle school again
someday. Won't removing car lanes make traffic worse during students pick -up and drop -off
The traffic studies mentioned at the beginning of this Analysis Section were conducted when
Mountain Shadows Middle School was a functioning middle school, therefore school- generated
traffic was taken into account when the study determined reducing the number of lanes would not
drop the LOS to unacceptable levels.
In fact, the proposed changes would make the street safer for students coming to and from school.
Many students were dropped off on Almond Street in the morning and had to cross 4 lanes of car
traffic to get to the school. With lane reductions, there would only be 2 lanes instead of 4 in which
students are exposed to cars as they cross the street. And as mentioned above, the chances of the
"multiple- threat" accident are reduced as the number of car lanes are reduced.
The addition of bike lanes on both sides — where there are none now — also provides another choice
for students to travel to school, instead of being dropped -off or picked -up by car.
As the school district implements changes for our children's educational success, the City also
desires to be responsive in getting kids to school safely. All of the enhancements described above
would help create a slower and safer Southwest Boulevard.
OUTREACH:
There has been previous outreach on this concept in the past as described in Attachment A, including
groups of citizens participating in a "walkability" assessment of Southwest and other Rohnert Park
streets in 2007; a Bicycle Advisory Committee visit of the site last February on a Monday evening to
observe "rush hour" and interaction of field users, parking, bicyclistss and cars; and recent
discussions with school district officials who expressed concern about safety at the Almond Street
crosswalk. Outreach to nearby residents has included the recent mailing shown in Attachment B, and
the May Yd meeting, which has not yet occurred at the time of the writing of this report. The citizen
input from that meeting will be reported at the May 81" Council meeting.
SUMMARY:
In summary, staff believes that the project has multiple benefits:
ITEM NO. 7
(l) Reducing lanes from 4 to 2 (1 in each direction) will:
• Cahn traffic by eliminating lane switching and limiting speeds to the speed of the most
prudent car in front
• Decrease the number of vehicle travel lanes for pedestrians to cross, reducing their
exposure to moving cars
• Reduce the chance of the "multiple- threat" accident
• Maintain capacity and adequate level of service, even for future projected volumes
(2) Installing a pedestrian - activated flashing beacon at the Almond Street crosswalk will:
• Alert drivers and bicyclists that pedestrians are crossing the street
• Calm traffic with visual signals of pedestrian activity
(3) Adding bike lanes will:
• Provide a continuous bike facility for healthy, non - motorized alternatives to car travel
between residential neighborhoods and major activity centers (schools, parks, shopping)
• Cahn traffic by visually narrowing the street
• Create a buffer / safe space between parked cars and the car lanes
Additionally, keeping this project as proposed will retain the features that make this project eligible
for $131,120 in funds that will pay for the repair and repaving of the street.
OPTIONS:
(1) Do not proceed with project and retract TFCA grant application. The TFCA funds will be
made available for competitive proposals frorn other Sonoma County municipalities in the
BAAQMD jurisdiction.
(2) Do not proceed with Southwest project, but substitute a different project for the TFCA grant.
Staff has indentified an alternative TFCA project: Video or microwave bike detection at
eligible intersections. Depending on which type is chosen (video is approximately $40,000-
$50,000 per 4 -leg intersection, microwave approximately $25K -29K for same, which
includes equipment, installation and programming only), the grant could fund 3 to 5
intersections.
FISCAL IMPACT /FUNDING SOURCE:
The total project estiriiate for the Southwest Boulevard project is $232,500. Along with the requested
$131,120 in TFCA funds, the project is proposed to be funded with about $36,400 in Prop. I B funds
and $74,980 in gas tax or Measure M funds. No General Fund monies will be used on this project.

ISSUE:
On April 12, 2012, Development Services staff submitted an application to the Sonoma County
Transportation Authority (SCTA) for $131,120 in funds from the Transportation Fund for Clean Air
(TFCA) Program for the Southwest Boulevard Bike Lane Gap Closure and Traffic Calming Project.
Prior to this, staff met with the Bicycle Advisory Committee at their regular publicly- noticed
meeting in February to get their input on the project.
This memorandum provides the City Council with information about the project, TFCA funding and
its timelines, the project's benefits and potential drawbacks, and to outline staff's next steps for
outreach to project stakeholders.
BACKGROUND:
About the project
The proposed project is for pavement repair, slurry seal, reconfiguration of lanes and restriping of
the segment of Southwest Boulevard between Adrian Drive and Burton Avenue. The proposed
reconfiguration is to reduce the number
of lanes from 4 to 2, i.e., remove 1 travel
lane in each direction. (Left turn pockets
would remain.) This would leave room
for new bike lanes to be installed on
both sides of this segment of Southwest
and also preserve all existing on- street
parking adjacent to the ballfields. The
project also includes the installation of a
pedestrian- activated flashing beacon at
the mid -block crosswalk at Almond
Street and Southwest.
The total project estimate is $232,500.
Along with the requested $131,120 in
TFCA funds, the project is proposed to

be funded with about $36,400 in Prop. 1B funds and $74,980 in gas tax or Measure M funds. No
General Fund monies will be used on this project.
The proposed bike lane installation and crosswalk enhancement are in the Rohnert Park Bicycle and
Pedestrian Master Plan as part of a "Southwest Boulevard Improvements" project, which is listed
as a High- Priority Project.
About TFCA funds
TFCA funds are granted by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) for projects
that reduce vehicle emissions such as transit projects, new bicycle facilities, arterial management,
traffic calming and smart growth. This project is both a bike facilities and a traffic calming project,
so it is eligible for TFCA funds. The City submitted an application to SCTA because it is their role to
recommend to the BAAQMD a slate of Sonoma County projects for TFCA funding. On April 26th,
the SCTA Technical Advisory Committee will consider a project list to recommend to the SCTA Board
for approval on May 14th. Funding agreements will be drawn up by the BAAQMD and prepared for
agency execution sometime between May and August.
DISCUSSION
Project benefits
Staff believes that the project has multiple benefits:
(1) The addition of bike lanes will:
• Provide a continuous bike facility for healthy, non - motorized alternatives to car travel
between residential neighborhoods and major activity centers (schools, parks, shopping)
• Calm traffic by visually narrowing the street
• Create a buffer / safe space between parked cars and the car lanes
(2) The reduction of lanes from 4 to 2 (1 in each direction) will:
• Calm traffic by eliminating lane switching and limiting speeds to the speed of the most
prudent car in front
Decrease �, ` vehicle travel panes for pedestrians o cross, reducing he chance of a
multiple- threat crash (when one vehicle stops for a pedestrian in a travel lane on a
multi -lane road, but the motorist in the next lane does not, resulting in a crash) for
pedestrians
• Maintain capacity and adequate level of service, even for future projected volumes
(3) The installation of the pedestrian- activated flashing beacon at the mid -block crosswalk at
Almond Street will:
• Alert drivers and bicyclists that pedestrians are crossing the street
• Calm traffic with visual signals of pedestrian activity
April 20, 2012
Southwest Boulevard Bike Lanes and Traffic Calming Project
Page 3
A 2007 traffic study of Southwest Boulevard indicated that a reduction of lanes from 4 to 2 (1 in
each direction) would accommodate existing and projected traffic volumes with no significant
reduction in level of service.
City staff and the Bicycle Advisory Committee (BAC) visited the proposed project site on Monday,
February 27, 2012, between 5:00 and 6:00 PM — essentially what would be the Southwest
Boulevard "rush hour," and also at a time when athletic teams and their families were using the
ballfields and the on- street parking. The BAC and staff were able to observe first -hand the
behaviors of motorists, bicyclists, pedestrians, cars entering and leaving the on- street parking, and
people coming in and out of parked cars. It was observed that the traffic volume at that time —
while busy — did not seem to need 2 lanes in each direction to move smoothly; it was noticed
however that the cars seemed to travel faster than necessary. It was agreed that a bike lane next to
the on- street parking lane would greatly enhance the safety of people exiting and entering their
cars. Pedestrians were also observed crossing Southwest at Almond Street. Some pedestrians
stepped off the curb and a little into the street — probably to increase their visibility so that cars
would stop. This behavior suggested a need for more advanced warning to motorists of people
potentially crossing, and that cars need to slow down and stop. It was also observed that lane
eliminations would reduce the chance of the "multiple- threat" accident at this location.
The issue of safe crossing of Southwest Boulevard will become even more relevant as the Cotati-
Rohnert Park Unified School District (CRPUSD) implements the "John Reed and Waldo Rohnert
Elementary School Reconfiguration," which will basically change the two elementary schools — one
on each side of Southwest — to "single- span" structures. This means that instead of both schools
being Kindergarten -to -6th grade, one school will be K -to -3rd grade, and the other, 4th -to -6th grade.
Presently, neighborhood children on one side of Southwest attend the school on the same side of
Southwest for their K — 6th years. With the single -span school reconfiguration, a child will attend
one school from K — 3rd grade, and then go to the school across Southwest for 4th —6 th grades. The
enhanced crosswalk, provision of bike lanes, elimination of car lanes to cross, and slower vehicle
speeds through traffic calming will make the street safer. Furthermore, it is hoped that by providing
better pedestrian and bike facilities, more families would choose to walk or bike rather than use
cars to ferry children across from one neighborhood to the other across Southwest Boulevard.
The drawbacks of the project are unknown at this point but can be ferreted through a community
and stakeholder process, and will be studied. Some conditions have changed since the 2007 traffic
study. The former Mountain Shadows Middle School on Burton Avenue and Southwest is now the
school district office. The campus also includes a preschool, an alternative school and a
continuation high school. (There appears to be far less traffic however, than when the middle
school was there.) The SMART train track crossing is nearby and may have some effect on
Southwest Boulevard traffic. Other plans of the school district may require different approaches to
April 20, 2012

this project. These and more are yet to be studied and will be considered in the preliminary
engineering stage of the project, or earlier if necessary.
Project outreach to date
Community outreach and involvement on the proposed project took place as part of a strategy to
foster the redevelopment of underutilized properties on Commerce Boulevard, State Farm Drive
and Southwest Boulevard corridors by creating a create appealing streetscape environment and
encouraging pedestrian use while accommodating vehicular traffic.
In 2006, the Council directed Staff to prepare studies to suggest ways of "re- imagining" the
corridors, including Southwest between Commerce and Seed Farm Drive. RBF Consultants ( "RBF ")
was hired to perform the work. RBF conducted a "community immersion" process from May 17
through May 19, 2007, which included a meeting with community leaders on the morning of May
17th, walking tours of the corridors on the morning of May 18th and a design charrette on the
morning of May 19th, An Ad Hoc Sub - Committee of two City Council members represented the
City's leadership in the process. Drafts of the Corridor Concept Plans and Implementation Strategy
( "Plans ") were subsequently reviewed by Staff and comments were incorporated in the latest Draft.
A colored booklet of the Plans has been provided separately for the Council's review March 2009.
As part of the outreach for the recent Pedestrian Safety Improvements project, staff also had
opportunity to speak with the CRPUSD District Superintendent, Assistant Superintendent, and
Facilities Manager about the school district's concerns about Southwest Boulevard. Their only
concern was about non -stop controlled intersections such as the one on Almond Street.
More recently, the project has been reviewed at the publicly- noticed meeting in February by the
Bicycle Advisory Committee as noted above.
PROPOSED NEXT STEPS
It is recognized by staff that outreach to stakeholders when there is significant change — for
example, reducing a street from 4 lanes down to 2 lanes — is a valuable step toward a successful
project outcome. Staff will arrange a public information meeting / workshop for the neighborhood,
field users, school district campus users, bicyclists, etc. to learn about the proposed project. This
workshop can occur before final funding agreements are signed (if a grant is awarded to this
project) and before monies are obligated and spent.
CONCLUSION
This project provides multiple benefits for vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian safety without
compromising road capacity. Community outreach will start shortly and concerns that arise would
be examined thoroughly and addressed in the project design.

RE: Maintenance and Restriping Lanes on Southwest Blvd.
Dear Resident,
The City is interested in your thoughts on a proposed roadway project on
Southwest Boulevard.
The proposed project is maintenance and restriping lanes oil Southwest Boulevard
between Adrian Drive and Burton Avenue. 'The proposed change would reduce the
number of through lanes from 4 to 2 by removing I travel lane in each direction.
Turn lanes would remain. All on- street parking including that adjacent to the ball
fields would remain. New bike lanes would be installed on both sides of this
segment of Southwest. The project also includes the installation of a pedestrian -
activated flashing beacon at the mid -block crosswalk at Almond Street and
Southwest.
"fhe City believes that the project would have multiple benefits including:
• Maintain traffic capacity, even for future projected volumes
• Calm traffic by eliminating lane switching and limiting speeds to the speed of
the most prudent car in front and by visually narrowing the street
• Decrease the vehicle travel lanes for pedestrians to cross, reducing the multiple -
threat crash (when one vehicle stops for a pedestrian in a travel lane on a multi-
lane road, but the motorist in the next lane does not, resulting in a crash) for
pedestrians
• Alert drivers and bicyclists that pedestrians are crossing the street at Almond
Street and Southwest
• Provide a continuous bike facility for safe bicycle travel between residential
neighborhoods and major activity centers (schools, parks, shopping)
• Create a buffer / safe space between parked cars and the car lanes
The City has an opportunity to receive a $130,000 grant to implement this plan and
provide much needed maintenance for the roadway. The City is interested in
hearing from our citizens regarding this change. There will be a meeting held on
"Thursday May 7, 2012 at the Burton Recreation Center at 7:30 p.m. We hope to
see you there.

MEMORANDUM
Date: May 3, 2012
To: Honorable Mayor & City Council Members
From: John McArthur, Waste & Recycling Committee Liaison
Subject: SCWMA Regional Canyout Bag Waste Reduction Project
Please see the attached letter from Henry Mikus, Executive Director, Sonoma County Waste
Management Agency (SCWMA). The purpose of this letter is to provide clarification on the process
of developing a regional single -use plastic bag ordinance and includes information on potential costs
for member jurisdictions that would participate.

Mr. John McArthur
Director of Public Works
City of Rolinert Park
130 Avram Avenue
Rohnert Park, California 94928
Reference: SCWMA Regional Carryout Bag Project
Dear Mr. McArthur,
AMA BOUNTY
Waste
Management
Agency
Thank you for the continuing discussions regarding the SCWMA regional carryout bag waste
reduction project.
The SCWMA is seeking participation from each member jurisdiction with the development of an
ordinance that would restrict the use of single -use plastic bags. Please know that participation in
this process is nonbinding and will represent no cost to each jurisdiction at this time. In the
event that future costs or other constraints are revealed, the member jurisdiction will have the
discretion to apt -out of the process altogether.
The development of this ordinance could result in either a regional (countywide) or a model
(template) for a local ordinance that could be implemented by each jurisdiction. At this point,
nothing has been decided on whether or not a regional or model ordinance will be pursued; more
research and input from our member jurisdictions is needed. The SCWMA is in the initial
phases of developing standards for this project and intends to study the options further through
an inclusive process that will hopefully result in a product that supports each jurisdiction's needs
while considering their respective constraints.
Ordinance Alternatives Being Considered
There are two possible approaches in developing an ordinance that would restrict plastic bag use.
One possibility is developing a regional ordinance that would provide a uniform standard
throughout the County. A regional ordinance would require full participation through a
unanimous vote by each SCWMA board member (each member jurisdiction's representative). If
there is not unanimous support for a regional ordinance, then this option can no longer be
considered. However, if there is consensus among the SCWMA members to proceed with a
regional carryout bag waste reduction ordinance, the SCWMA would be responsible for:
1. SCWMA staff time;
2. Payment for the creation of CEQA documents; and
SCWMA legal review, and legal defense should there be a lawsuit. If the SCWMA
adopts an ordinance, it is the SCWMA's sole responsibility to defend it.
Page 1 of 3
4. Any unanticipated costs incurred through the project development and implementation
process.
Review by city staff or city attorney would be at the discretion of each city, and those costs
would be borne by the respective cities. Please remember, each member city can opt -out of this
process at anytime thereby exercising the option to avoid incurring any costs.
The other alternative would be a model ordinance that could be used by each member
jurisdiction if choosing to participate. This alternative does not require unanimous support by
SCWMA member city's since each jurisdiction can elect to participate or not.
Status
The SCWMA has been studying this issue for some time and has gathered enough information to
proceed with the next steps in the process. To date, SCWMA has:
1. Reviewed other ordinances throughout the state and has a sense of what processes have
been successfully implemented, particularly without legal challenges.
2. Set the City of San Jose's ordinance as a working template — this ordinance was
implemented successfully and is fulfilling the intended purpose with minimal cost.
3. Received positive public support — In March 2012, the SCWMA completed a series of
public outreach meetings to gauge community interest. Although it was a very small
sample size, there appears to be very little resistance and initial support of the initiative.
4. Received initial direction to proceed in developing an ordinance from the SCWMA
Board of Directors. At its April meeting, through a 7 -0 -2 vote, the Board of Directors
directed SCWMA staff to proceed with next steps in developing an ordinance. However,
since the vote was not unanimous, a regional ordinance cannot be considered unless this
is achieved.
What's Next
The SCWMA will seek full participation from its abstaining jurisdictions at an upcoming
meeting. Depending on the final votes, either one or both ordinance alternatives will be studied
and explored.
Questions to be Answered
The biggest unknown right now is whether or not a regional or model ordinance will be pursued.
If these options are both available, each member jurisdiction will have ample opportunity to
participate in the study and development the selected process. Depending upon input, either
option could be ruled out as more information is made available and presented to each member
jurisdiction's Councils.
Other questions and unknowns at this time include:
I . Enforcement -- active or passive approach and associated costs — this will depend on what
type of ordinance is ultimately adopted and how each member jurisdiction or SCWMA
elects to enforce.
2. Applicability — level of restriction to be determined based on input from member
organizations, i.e., grocery stores, department stores, produce bags...
3. Cost recovery -- should a paper bag fee be put in place for merchants to recover additional
costs? This will need to be determined through the development process.
Page 2 of 3
Through the ordinance development process, these and other questions that come up will be
answered as they are brought forth to the SCWMA Board of Directors and each member
jurisdiction.
A local ordinance is in the process of being drafted for the SCWMA's consideration. No
arrangements have been made to prepare CEQA documents for such an ordinance, and there will
be opportunities for the City of Rohnert Park to review and provide input on an ordinance before
finalization if the SCWMA Board of Directors chooses to pursue a carryout bag waste reduction
ordinance. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
Henry J. Mikus
Executive Director

THE OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER
City of Rohnert Park -130 Avram Avenue - Rohnert Park, CA 94928 - [707] 588 -2226 - Fax [707] 792 -1876
TO: City Council
FROM: Gabriel A. Gonzalez, City Manager
Cathy Orme, Finance Director
DATE: May 3, 2012
RE: Budget Process - General Fund Operating Budget FY 2012 -2013
BACKGROUND
In FY 2011 -2012, the City took a new turn as to how the operating budget would be prepared. The most
significant change was that we shifted from focusing on what we buy to focusing on how we provide
services. The budget format we used was a hybrid of performance based budgeting and traditional line
item. Using this format increased transparency and accountability of the budget process.
APPROACH TO BUDGET FY13 PROCESS
Building upon last year's budget format, for the FY 13 budget we took it one step further, utilizing an "old
school" budget format first used by the federal government in the 1970s under the Carter administration:
Zero -Base Budgeting (ZBB).
What is Zero -Base Budgeting or ZBB? The basic premise is that managers build their budget from
ground up, starting from zero. In addition, each budget request must be justified, regardless of prior year
budget. Also, ZZB requires managers to increase focus on projected expenditures. A more thorough
review of operational needs is performed.
In developing prior budgets, the City utilized a traditional line item budget in which a line item was either
incrementally increased or remained status quo. But more often than not, a line item would be increased a
modest percentage for inflation. This process is suitable under normal economic conditions and/or when
in City is doing well financially, because revenues are steady and/or increasing annually. Today, neither
of these two factors are applicable, thus the need to take a different approach to our budget process.
DISCUSSION
Under my direction each department director was requited to prepare a budget utilizing the principles of
ZBB. To this end, we have prepared each department budget from ground up and provided justification
for each line item. Another change in this budget process is that we have moved away from the former
recharge method and more toward a direct cost allocation system.
Utilizing a cost allocation system will. afford us the opportunity to true up all costs for each operational
function and service. However, this shift may have initially created a bigger budget gap between inter -
fund transfers from Enterprise and Special Revenue Funds to the General Fund. Also, the Finance
Director is developing a new method and justification for recovery of administrative overhead costs to
these other funds. Staff is of the opinion this gap will be reduced by mid -year, once we beginning to, trend
actual costs in these departments. Put simply, this City's budget, even once adopted, is an ongoing work
in progress given this is one of the first times that the City has used a formal budget process; and not just
any budget process, but Zero -Base Budgeting.
CONCLUSION
I can assure you the department budgets you will be reviewing have been thoroughly vetted through an
in -house staff budget panel comprised of the City Manager, Finance Director and staff, and other
department directors. Every dollar has been justified and in most instances line items have been reduced.
This has been accomplished even though we realized an increase in PERS contributions, medical
premiums, and the workers' compensation premium.

PUBLIC SAFETY
POLICE and FIRE
The City of Rohnert Park Department of Public Safety is responsible for the protection of life and
property through a unique and highly successful Public Safety model that cross trains our officers to be
proficient as both police officers and fire fighters. This Public Safety model provides for a reduced cost
to citizens by consolidating police and fire into one integrated Public Safety Department. Most
municipalities have a separate fire and a separate police department that duplicate many of the same
management responsibilities. The Director of Public Safety is both the police and fire chief.
Rohnert Park has used these economies of scale approach to Public Safety since its inception as a City
in 1962.
PATROL SERVICES
The Patrol Division of Public Safety operates as a typical police department and provides police
services 24 hour a day, seven days a week. Patrol responds to calls for service, provides general law
enforcement activities, including traffic investigation, reports of criminal activity, crime scene
investigation and apprehension of criminals. Our patrol officers are committed to ensuring a high
quality of life for our citizens through the use of problem solving strategies and proactive patrol.
Rohnert Park enjoys an extremely low part 1 crime index due to the partnering with our citizens to
reduce crime and the fear of crime. Some of the activities we actively participate in are the Every 15
Minutes, Special Olympics, Alive at 25 and our Alcohol Beverage Service Ordinance. The Department
of Public Safety also attends various meetings throughout the year with community based
organizations.
INVESTIGATIONS
The Investigations Unit is responsible for following up on criminal reports from the officers assigned
to the patrol function. They investigate major crime scenes, collect evidence, interview witnesses, and
victims of crime in order to arrest individuals responsible for violating society's laws. Investigations
works closely with the District Attorney's Office to assist with building strong cases that uphold our
system of due process and hold those responsible for their criminal behavior. Additionally,
investigations works with the patrol division to track and monitor sex offenders who live in our
community and those individuals who are on probation and parole.
COMMUNICATIONS
The communications /dispatch unit is responsible for answering and handling all 911 and other
incoming calls for police, fire, emergency medical, and animal services. These calls from citizens
come into our communications center both from land line and cell phones. Our dispatchers receive and
process all calls for service and maintain communications with officers in the field through their car
radios or the mobile data computers inside the patrol vehicles. Dispatchers assist officers by
conducting warrant checks, criminal histories, drivers' license status, vehicle registration, restraining
orders and other inquiries into law enforcement databases. Dispatchers also maintain communications
with our fire division through their radios or the mobile data computers mounted inside our fire
vehicles. Again our Public Safety model for dispatching is cost effective because we dispatch police,
animal control and fire service calls from one central location. We also take calls from our citizens
regarding animal calls for stray animals to animals that are aggressive and pose a danger to the public.
RECORDS
The records unit is responsible for processing all police and fire reports along with parking and traffic
citations. Citizens who come to our main station at 500 City Center Drive make contact with our
records personnel who assist them with receiving a copy of a police report or answering questions they
may have about our Public Safety Department. The records section also makes copies of reports that
are used by the District Attorney's Office for criminal prosecutions.
FIRE DIVISION
Our Public Safety Officers who are assigned to the Fire Division function as a typical municipal Fire
Agency and are responsible for protecting life and property. All persons assigned to the Fire Division
are equipped with police equipment as well. They are available 24/7 to respond to police incidents
when needed. Fire departments carry out their mission by providing assistance in putting out fires and
providing first aid response. Our Fire Division responds to medical emergencies and vehicle accidents
in the City limits and on occasion on the 101 highway. We also provide fire prevention, disaster
preparedness through the City Emergency Operations Center and conduct fire inspections of new and
existing buildings.
FIRE EDUCATION
Fire education is a key element to being proactive and keeping the community safe from fires. Through
public education, we hope to prevent the loss of life and or property by emphasizing fire prevention
and risk mitigation in the components that could potentially cause unsafe fires.
FIRE PREVENTION
The Fire Prevention unit is overseen by the Fire Marshal. This unit had two other full time positions tc
assist the Fire Marshal but they have been cut from the current budget. The Fire Marshal is responsible
for enforcing the Fire Code and portions of the State Health and safety Code. Other responsibilities of
the Fire Marshal include project reviews, conducting plan checks and inspection of new construction
and fire protection systems. The Fire Marshal is also responsible for conducting fire investigations of
all unknown caused fires.
EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES (EMS)
The Fire.Department performs rescue work and provides emergency medical services to ill and injured
persons. Fire personnel are dispatched to all potentially life threatening emergencies and many of our
staff are certified as Emergency Medical Technicians or Paramedics to provide essential medical
services.
EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS /DISASTER PLANNING
The Department is responsible for developing comprehensive disaster response plans for Rohnert Park
and for coordinating all public and private services that may be needed to respond to manmade or
natural disasters. The Fire Department also coordinate's disaster planning drills and tabletop exercises
with City staff and allied agencies to prepare for critical incidents.

ANIMAL SERVICES
We offer shelter services to animals from Rohnert Park and, by contract, to the City of Cotati.
The animal shelter serves as a safe haven for lost animals, an adoption center giving unclaimed
and unwanted animals a second chance, and an educational resource promoting responsible pet
care. In 2011 the City's Animal Shelter handled" 1,338 animals.
ANIMAL INTAKE
The animal shelter receives in animals of every species imaginable, both from Officers and the
public. Lost animals are scanned for a microchip or a visible collar and tag to help us reunite
them with their parents. Residents of Rohnert Park and Cotati can relinquish their pets to us if
they are no longer willing or able to care for them. We also receive in DOA domestic animals so
that they can be identified if an owner comes searching.
REDEMPTIONS /ADOPTIONS
Approximately 60% of dogs and 8% of cats that come in as stray are reclaimed by their family.
To increase the number of animals reclaimed we actively promote microchips and, with the
underwriting of the Animal Shelter League, offer annual free microchip specials. After waiting
the required holding period, unclaimed strays and owner surrendered animals are processed for
adoption. All animals are seen by our contract Veterinarian to screen for disease and health
concerns and vaccinations are updated. All dogs are temperament tested by a volunteer dog
trainer to provide guidelines on placement. There is a simple profile and screening process to
help match potential adopters with compatible animals for a happy adoption outcome. We
participate in events, both in -house and out in the community and utilize the media in as many
ways as possible to promote and encourage adoptions.
EUTHANASIA
Animals that are not suitable for adoption because of either health issues or temperament
problems are humanely euthanized with an injection of pentobarbital sodium.
EDUCATION
Programs are offered for children including summer camps, tours of the shelter, a junior
volunteer program and more, to encourage and foster their love and respect of animals. We have
a weekly column in the Community Voice and the Rohnert Park Patch to reach our community
about various issues and pet care articles. Volunteers host a monthly "Meet the Bunny" event to
increase adoptions and education of our smaller critters.
SPAY /NEUTER CLINICS
To help decrease the overpopulation of dogs and cats and reduce the number of unwanted
kittens that flood through our door each spring, we sponsor free cat spays and neuters and low -
cost dog altering with twice monthly clinics. Funded through a special allocation of $2 from each
pet license and the state mandated intact animal redemption fee, these clinics offer our residents
an affordable way to responsibly alter their pets.

City Manager Gonzalez
Mayor Mackenzie
City Council Members
Rohnert Park, Ca 94928
Dear Mayor Mackenzie and City Council Members:
Recently I submitted copies for each council member on the excellent article" Play to Extinction" written by Kevin D.
Williamson in the March 19, 2012
National Review magazine. I realize this is a general article focusing on New Jersey where one of my sons just relocated
for a job in Manhattan.
At the council meeting on April 10th a few council members zeroed in on the Green Center and the casino as a means
for economic development.
I call your attention to the last part of the article which states "When pursued beyond the limits of recreation, where
the main purpose after all is to'kill time', gambling subtracts from the national income" Call gambling a vice, call it an
addiction, call it a harmless diversion, call it anything you fancy -but don't call it economic development."
The biggest mistake these past 12 years has been the electorate i.e. Board of Supervisors and Rohnert Park Council who
refuse to put this on the ballot for the citizens
to vote as was recently done at Point Molate.
I apologize for this late letter however, my printer was out of commission when I submitted individual copies of the
article to each city council member.
Sincerely,
Eunice Edgington

BY KEVIN D. WILLIA`MSON
E are the Silver Horde, and we are descending
on chartered buses, on Chinatown buses, and on
the Greyhound "Lucky Streak ". express 'bus,we
come, on crutches and canes,. lapping obesely
over the seats of mobility scooters, adjusting oxygen tubes, dis-
creetly nursing Big Gulp cups full of tequila and Pepsi through
bendy straws at three in the afternoon, doing serious damage to
complimentary troughs of Cheez -Its and Famous Amos cook-
ies. We are getting comped. Free passes: to the all -you- can -eat

Atlantic City Express Service (read: ACES) ; and we:come
rolling and thundering down the tracks bearing our Social

checks. We are the blue- rinsed, unhinged, diabetic American id

way there as we converge from ail points.on the came capital
of New Jersey— because we are feeling lucicy. ,
Fumy;thing about Atlantic City: Nobody feels really obvi-
ouslylucky o live there. Its population is declining (it has lost
40percent since its peak), and among the foot soldiers of the
gambling industry— blackjack dealers, scantily clad cocktail
waitresses, cabdrivers—it is difficult to find anybody who
actually. lives.in it. One lightly clothed; entertainer working at a
particularly gamey establishment, along a row, of empty com-
mercial buildings, video stores, and the occasional. storefront
mosque,;all within a couple minutes' walk of the casino district,
snorted derisively at the notion of living in the city. "Oh, hell
no. Too_ dangerous." That's AC: It's a great place for a visiting
go -go dancer, but she woutdir't want to live there. Touring the
local landscape of decay and disorder, it is hard to imagine why
a:whole range of American politicians —from such likely sus-
pects as Ed Rendell and Andrew Cuomo to lots of otherwise
conservative RepUhlicans whn really might to know hetter-
loo.k at the city's depressed and depressing precincts, its sad
coat of glitz (Sinbad! At the Tropicana!) and say to themselves:
"My state needs to get some of that action!"
They hadbetter think twice about what they are getting them-
selves .into. The issue of gambling is not a question of rah -rah
libertarians vs. no -no bluestockings: Nobody who looks seri-
ously at the nexus between politics and gambling could pos-
sibly conclude that what is happening in Atlantic City, in
Pennsylvania, on the Indian reservations, or in the lottery rack-
et represents the operation of the free market. It is a cartel in
most cases and a monopoly in many, all with the blessings of
the state. The arrangement, in the words of one scholarly study
of casinos in Montana, leaves government "a dependent partner
in the business of gambling." If gambling advocates were sim-
ply making a principled case that putative adults have the right
to entertain themselves with their own money according to their
own tastes (or, let's, be: serious, lack thereof), then their argu-
ment would be persuasive. But what is in fact happening is that
politicians smell money, and so government itself is getting into
the game, taking gambling to be a fruitful model of economic
development.
While !the data are hotly contested, it is hard to deny that gam-
bling has taken more out of Atlantic City than Atlantic City has
taken out of gambling. A report prepared by the California
Research Bureau on the .potential for gambling in_that state
found that while many of the AC casinos had done well, there
was little secondary economic impact: "The success of gam-
bling in Atlantic City," the report finds,
has done little to revitalize, the rest of Atlantic: City and its busi-
ness community. Atlantic City, has been described as two cities.
One is.the casinos, and the other is a city of boarded -up build-
ings with a unemployed minority work :force. Gambling, has'- r
largely failed in achieving the objectives of job growth for local
residents and city-wide economic development.
,w,The: federal government's National Gambling Impact Study
Commission notes that while gambling advocates: favorably
cite the "Mississippi Miracle," the economic boomlet that that
state experienced after legalizing. casino gambling, "in.reality
the _unemployment rate in Mississippi. declined at about the
same rate as the national average in the years from 1992-to
19910." A University of Chicago report found that there was '`no,
change in overall per capita income" as the result of gambling
liberalization in the cases it studied. Governments, always
eager to out =Enron Enron in the accounting - shenanigans olym-
pics, earmark: gambling proceeds. for popular. programs, then
reduce general- revenue support;for those programs _and use the
extra money too increase spending elsewhere. It's a lot like slot

the schmucks from the fact that :losses are a statistical in-
evitability. And while the accoun;Cing gets pretty,,-, hairy; it's not
too hard to find entries on the losing side of the ledger In,one
study of Atlantic City, 22 percent of the local homeless report-
ed that gambling was the proximate cause of their condition. >

Borgata is a dump, albeit a kind of expensive one.. It has some
dimly lit nightclubs forthe ventisomethings,to frolic in, and it's
big on overpriced restaurants serving food that was trendy five
years ago (Kobe burgers, Asian fusion), the kind of place that
has architectural spaces meant to be imposing but a. mainte-

showers and stained carpets. It's a mind jarring mix, a lot of
polished marble and women in stylish dresses, with something

,(Seriously, visit around four in the afternoon It's wheelchair

gold leafs every surface. with an inch. of kitsch in a winking
acknowledgement of the. underlying plebeianness.of the venue,
Borgata affects a kind of Parisian hauteur like a down -on-
his -luck aristocrat expecting things to get worse, which is what
it is: In February it reported declining revenues and a 7 percent
drop in operating profits: Gaming- industry analysts. are gloomy
about its outlook as the new $2.4 billion Revel casino prepares
to open its doors:
- :For.. that new competition, Borgata can offer its gratitude to
the great state of New Jersey and to Governor Chris Christie,
thanks to whom taxpayers will be partners. i , among other
things,: a, burlesque.show:.at Revel called ""Royal, Jelly." (The

casino also is implementing some unusual business practices,
including a plan; to fire all of its .servers, hostesses, and wait-
resses every four or six years.and force them to reapply: for their
jobs, in a more- nakedly - brutal - than -usual strategy for weeding
out anybody who doesn't look good in tall heels and a: short

Governor Christie had better hope itdoesn'.t: In February, he
released a budget:proposal that. contains some; implausibly_opti-
mistiq, financial. pro.ections: Among other ahings, he's, betting
'that'gambling revenues are going to rise by 14,percent, .or.near-
lya half - billion dollars, resulting in $40: million in new taxes.

industry analysts,,including Deutsche Bank Securities managing
director Andrew Zarnett, who says that he fears the project will
not produce any new revenues: "Revel casino will mostly.can-
nibalize existing operators, ". he told the Press ofAtlantic City.
,Which is to say, the supply of ventisomethings is limited.
There's only so much play at the top of the market, but that's not
where all the action resides, and the question that is.seldom
asked is: If New Jersey is successful in increasing its casino rev -
enues, and Pennsylvania is successful, and Indiana is success-
ful, and Mississippi is successful, and the Indians are success-
ful, and Connecticut is successful —where exactly does the
money come from?
THE money will come from the Silver Horde. Casinos
have long loved the high rollers, the whales who still
rule in Vegas, .but the low rollers are the new bread and
butter for casinos in the rest of the country. If the. politicians
have their way, the Silver Horde will not have to;hop on the
Lucky Streak and go to Atlantic. City: Atlantic City is coming to
them:
Having long since shaken:off the last vestiges of its ancestral
Quaker sobriety; Pennsylvania has opened :up :casinos every-

is why there's a.Harrah's casino in Chester, one of Pennsyl-
vania's poorest cities (per capita income $9,052) and its most
murder-happy (24 homicides in2010 among 33,972 residents),

January, requiring.a state bailout.
There's a lot of broke to go around:, In a particularly depress-
ing sign of the times, the parent company of the struggling
Miami Herald sold the paper's Biscayne Bay headquarters to
the Malaysian conglomerate Genting, which, in addition 'toits
plantations and oil - and -gas businesses, is one of the world's
largest gambling concerns. :It.is the largest casino operator in
the United Kingdom, and it is expanding remorselessly in the
United States. The Pequot tribe may be the name on the brass
plate at the giant Foxwoods Resort in Connecticut, but it was
Genting, through its Kien Huat Realty subsidiary, that.put the
money up for the project. Likewise the Seneca Indians'. casino

T: HE industry terns of art that denotes success vis -a-vis any
individual gambler is: PLAY To ExT INCrtoN. The mandate
11 1 is to keep gamblers tied to the machines until they have
handed over all the money they have to hand. over. There are a
great many ways to do this, but one way to keep the grannies teth-
ered to the "Sex and the City: Change of a Dress" video slot
machine is to keep them literkllv:tethered: Casinos have begun
offering rewards cards that give gamblers points based on their
volume of play. The cards are affixed to neck lanyards and have
to be kept plugged in to the machine to accrue points, producing
a strangely umbilical sight.
'The statistics are astounding: Gambling rates for the 65- and -up
set went from 35 percent in 1975 to 80 percent in 1990. By 1996,
gambling was a bigger business than movies, recorded music,
sports, live entertainment; and:cruise:ships—eombined. And
while there is a greatdeal ofdebate about gambling addiction and

Although it creates no output. gambling does nevertheless absorb
time and resources. When pursued beyond the limits of recreation,
where the main purpose after allis to `kill time,' gambling subtracts

CrrY OR ROHMRT PARK
Dear Councilman:
April 15, 2012
My name is Maria Gutierrez, owner and operator of Lolita's Market located at 1471 Southwest Blvd.
Rohnert Park at the University Square shopping center. We have been serving the Rohnert Park and
Cotati community since February of 2009.
As you may know the University Square shopping center has a lot of vacant retail space. Since 2009,
Lolita's market has done its part in bringing business back to University Center. After getting to know our
customers, and expanding our services and products, we have had customers let us know that they have
not been to the center for years and are glad we are here.
Lolita's Market did not obtain an off sale license for alcohol from the city of Rohnert Park and because
we do not have an off sale license we cannot give our customers full service. We have applied for the off
sale license with the Police Department and are waiting for reply. If our request is denied, we would like
to apply for an appeal.
I am here asking for your support to help advocate for Lolita's Market. Our customers have encouraged
us to fight for the license and we would like to have the ability to best serve our customer base. For
years customers have asked, "Why don't you have alcohol for regular purchase ?" After explaining to
them our scenario they understand. Recently, a loyal customer started a petition with other customers'
signatures on hopes of helping us obtain our off sale license for alcohol. Enclosed is a copy of the
signatures our customers have given us.
Thank you for your time Councilman and we hope to gain your support not only to help our business
grow, but to best satisfy our customers.
Sincerely,
Maria Gutierrez
Still Friendly After All These Years!

a
NOTIFICATION OF APPLICATION FILING BY PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY (PG &E): TO RECOVER IN RATES COSTS ASSOCIATED
WITH THE OAKLEY GENERATING STATION PROJECT (A. 12 -03 -026)
What is the Oakley Generating Station Project?
The Oakley Generating Station (Oakley Project) is a new 586 megawatt (MW) combined cycle facility that will be located in Oakley, California. The
Oakley Project is being developed by Contra Costa Generating Station, LLC (CCGS), wholly owned by Radback Energy. The Oakley Project is highly
efficient and will provide significant operating flexibility as well as a number of important ancillary services to the California Independent System
Operator.
Detailed information about PG &E's Application:
On March 30, 2012, PG &E filed an Application with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to approve the terms and conditions, including
ratemaking and cost recovery, of the Amended and Restated Purchase and Sale agreement for the Oakley Project. The Oakley Project is forecasted to
be operational by 2016, at which point it would be transferred by the developer to PG &E.
Will Electric Rates Increase?
Yes. PG &E is requesting an increase in electric rates for the cost of the new utility owned generation. If the Application is approved by the CPUC, rates
for existing bundled customers (those who receive electric generation, as well as transmission and distribution services from PG &E) will increase by
$222 million, or 1.9 %, in 2016, (relative to current rates), which is the first and highest single year of recovery. In general, rates for existing direct access
and community choice aggregation customers (those who purchase their electricity from non -PG &E suppliers) will not be subject to change. Finally,
customers who depart PG &E's bundled service in the future may be responsible for a portion of these costs via a non - bypassable charge.
If the Commission approves the Application, a typical residential customer using 550 kilowatt-hours per month will see the average monthly
bill change from $89.73 to $91.05, an increase of $1.32 per month. A residential customer using 850 kilowatt-hours per month, which is about
twice the baseline allowance, will see the average monthly bill change from $185.92 to $191.16, an increase of $5.24 per month. Individual bills
may differ.
PG &E will provide a more illustrative allocation of the potential rate increases among customer classes, under its proposal, in a bill insert that will be
mailed directly to customers in mid -April through early May.

TO: STATE, COUNTY AND CITY
OFFICIALS
NOTICE OF APPLICATION OF PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY FOR RECOVERY OF
COSTS OF THE 2011 MARKET REDESIGN AND TECHNOLOGY UPGRADE INITIATIVE
On April 16, 2011, Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG &E) filed an application with the California Public
Utilities Commission (CPUC) requesting changes to its electric rates effective January 1, 2013.
Specifically, the request seeks to recover in rates the costs PG &E has incurred to comply with the
mandated Market Redesign and Technology Upgrade (MRTU) initiative.
The MRTU initiative, which was developed by the California Independent System Operator and approved
by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, was launched on March 31, 2009. The MRTU initiative
changed the manner in which electricity is procured and sold by participants in newly redesigned markets
in California. Costs presented in this application represent actual costs to implement the MRTU initiative
that were incurred by PG &E through December 31, 2011.
The total electric revenue (the total amount PG &E collects in rates from all customers) requirement request
is $7.9 million. PG &E requests that electric rates designed to recover this amount become effective on
January 1, 2013.
Will rates increase as a result of this application?
Yes, approval of this application will increase electric rates by less than one percent for bundled
service customers (those who receive electric generation, as well as transmission and distribution service
from PG &E) and for customers who purchase electricity from other suppliers (e.g., direct access and
community choice aggregation). The revenue requirement of $7.9 million will increase PG &E's bundled
system average rates, relative to current rates, by 0.07 percent in 2013.

To request a copy of the application and exhibits or for more details, call PG &E at 1-800 -743 -5000.
