same vehicular codes as drivers and questioned the need for this Ordinance.
Councilmember Reilly referred to Section 10.72.110, item A, and questioned the use of a

Chairman of the Bicycle Committee and stated that when this Ordinance was introduced
there were concerns about bicycle safety being expressed by members of the committee and

bicyclists are governed by the same rules and regulations as auto drivers and motorcyclists.
Mr. MacKenzie stated there were lengthy discussions concerning the use of a whistle and it
was determined that a loud whistle could startle someone. He stated the Ordinance could be
reworded to clarify that a siren, whistle or bell being used as a warning device would be
appropriate. Mr. MacKenzie stated they are mainly trying to eliminate the use of certain
devices.

ticketing process for bicyclists who do not have the proper safety equipment such as
reflectors, etc.
Mr. MacKenzie stated that basically, it is just not safe to ride a bicycle after dark, even with
reflectors, it is still not safe on busy streets. He stated that the Bicycle Rallys promote safety
as their main function.

Vice -Mayor Eck made the motion to introduce Ordinance No. 623 and set it for a public
hearing at a future City Council meeting, seconded by Councilmember Spiro and

Edgewood Apartments Project item up on the agenda due to a scheduling conflict Mr. Hoon
had.

Edgovood Apartments Project of Pine Creek Properties Multifamily Housing Mortgage Revenue
Bonds
City Manager Netter reviewed Pine Creek Properties proposal to obtain long term
financing for the Edgewood Apartments through the issuance of multifamily
revenue bonds by the ABAG Finance Authority. The amount of the bonds is
$6,495,000 which would be used to finance the 168 multifamily unit rental project
on the west side of US 101. The City Council, at its August 13, 1996 meeting
authorized the transfer of the bond allocation from the City to the ABAG Finance
Authority.
City Manager Netter advised the Council that Assistant City Manager, Carl Leivo
has been overseeing this project and would review the item in greater detail. In
addition, the second Resolution for this item would require that an elected official
be designated.

designated low income tax credit. He stated an application has been filed for an
automatic award. The bonds will be Triple A and sold by Fannie Maes. He stated
the application schedule will close on October 2, 1996.
City Manager Netter introduced Mr. Ken Martin, owner of the property, to the
Council and stated he would be available to answer any questions that the Council
may have.
Vice -Mayor Eck asked what the status of the loan would be if the City of Santa
Rosa did not wish to participate.
Mr. Hoon stated that Santa Rosa is a member of ABAG and as such is somewhat
obligated to participate. He stated they have a meeting with city officials in two
weeks at which time they will also be discussing a 230 unit complex on Range
Avenue in Santa Rosa as part of this proposal.
Vice -Mayor Eck asked if there is a point where the project is profitable and the
bonds would then be taken off and sold.
Mr. Hoon stated that new regulatory conditions require that these bonds be funded
for a 30 year period.
Councilmember Gallagher asked how the project received such a high rating.
Mr. Hoon stated that Fannie Mae loans are based on the strength of the community
and the value and equity of the project. He stated that the Allocation Committee
set the amount and it is the maximum that could be borrowed and is less then the
actual total value of the project which is $9 million.
Vice -Mayor Eck asked why the developers took so long to apply for this loan and
why it was not done at the beginning of the project?
Mr. Hoon replied that the State of California would not authorize a debt allocation
and the builder did not want to wait for a future construction period.
Councilmember Gallagher stated she was in full support of affordable housing but
questioned the high costs of this project and stated there are complexes on
Southwest Blvd. for approximately $53,000 per unit.
Mr. Hoon stated that is a rough number and it could be as high as $100,000 per
unit because this is a brand new complex.
Mr. Martin stated that the complex was appraised at $8.8 million.

of the residents of Rohnert Park pay for the Performing Arts Center, they should be given a

to use the PAC by raising the rates too high and suggested that City Manager, Netter, look at
the competition's rates and keep the PAC's rates in the same range.

the PAC viable. He stated that the difference has to be made up somewhere.
Councilmember Reilly made a motion to approve and the motion was seconded by
Councilmember Gallagher.
Vice -Mayor Eck stated he was not ready to approve this increase as he had a problem with the
main stage fees and felt the City was not proceeding in a correct way by changing the rate
structure by going after the smaller users. He stated we are bouncing these rates up 30% to
50% and he strongly encouraged staff to actively pursue higher rate rental fees in categories 6-
8. He stated that one week of rentals in category 8 could cover all expenses.

Department of Public Safety Fire Service Staffing /General Fund Reserve allocation or Budget
reallocation:
City Manager, Netter reviewed his staff report to review the Department of Public Safety's
budget in order to attempt to fund the $361,000 for 5 Public Safety Fire Personnel to
provide augmented fire services to the City. He stated that this amount could partially be
offset for a short period, but long term revenues would have to be identified. It is hoped
that the fires services assessment district is approved to provide this source. Mr. Netter
stated that major cuts in several departments which accounted for some of the increase in
the general fund.
City Manager Netter referred to his staff report where various options were listed with
proposed program cuts to support additional revenues, but did not recommend reductions
or eliminations.
There was general discussion among the Councilmembers on the pros and cons on using
the additional revenues for Public Safety and requested information on what other
department cuts were previously made that may also be considered.
Mayor Flores suggested this item be rescheduled to the next meeting of September 10,
1996.
Vice -Mayor Eck expressed his concern and stated that the Council had to make some very
hard choices during the budget discussions and he would like to see what other priorities
may be considered from other departments.
Mayor Flores stated agreed with Vice -Mayor Eck and felt there was a need for further
evaluation.
Councilmember Gallagher suggested that the Council earmark the $231,000 for these Fire
Service positions and wait and see if the ballot measure passes and perhaps in the meantime
organize a task force consisting of a citizens group to oversee these funds. She stated that
she also felt it was unfair that the Council asked all of these other departments to cut back
and then we pour all the additional money into Public Safety.
Councilmember Spiro stated that the City's basic services are Public Safety and Public
Works for city maintenance and these resources should go to the most important services.
She stated that the City must be innovative like the proposal to contract out the animal
shelter looked at previously.
City Manager Netter recommended that Council wait until the results of the November
election before forming a task force, so that the City would know for sure there are long
term revenues for the services.

Council Member Reilly stated that the highest priority of the City is to provide Police and
Fire services but unless City staff can show him where the funding will be coming from in
five years, he will not approve the funding for the additional staff. He stated that this
should not be a campaign issue and recommended the city start a salary comparison with
Santa Rosa and Petaluma for comparison.
Discussion pursued regarding campaign issues, creative alternatives, middle road options,
additional studies, etc.
It was the consensus of the council to review other department priorities before allocation
of the funds to Public Safety. In addition, agendize the discussion on a task force for the
next Council meeting.
On a related matter, City Manager Netter, reviewed other budget topics and referred to
downsizing of jobs and stated that in several departments there are employees that are
retiring. He advised that with the retirement of the Payroll Supervisor, research of the use
of a payroll service bureau may be considered, which would represent a potential savings
to the City. Additionally, a one half time position (including benefits) is being eliminated
with a potential savings of $15,000 to $20,000 a year. He indicated that Council, at a
previous meeting, had requested information on a Payroll Service Bureau before the
Account Clerk position was filled. Discussion ensued.
Upon motion by Councilmember Spiro, seconded by Mayor Flores and unanimously
approved to fill the Account Clerk position and to hold off on filling the 1/2 time position.
Planning and Zoning matters - File No. 1532 - 1995 Rohnert Park General Plan re.

Objective 3, Standard 1, and Standard 2 in the Circulation Element of the 1995
General Plan in accordance with Council's direction from last meeting. These changes
have been listed to set a goal to improve arterials and collectors to provide for level of
service (LOS) C or better and to grandfather current intersections that are operating
below Level C at those stated levels.
City Council directed minor changes in the wording.
Vice -Mayor Eck asked if this item had to go back to the Planning Commission and we
are just cleaning up the wording.
City Attorney, Flitner advised that the City Council would have the ultimate word on
this item.

favor of Measure N and the Vice Mayor draft the rebuttal to arguments against Measure N.
Letter from Paul Baldocchi regarding West Canon Manor Subdivision:
City Manager, Netter reviewed Mr. Baldocchi's letter wherein he states that over 50% of
the property owners in West Canon Manor would not agree to just the hook up of water
but would also like to see sewer improvements.
Vice -Mayor Eck stated he would like to see clarification from the Canon -Manor
Homeowner's Association as to how our wells in the M Section are adversely affecting
their water system.
Councilmember Spiro referred to paragraph 3 of the letter which states the homeowners
will not vote to hook up to water only and asked what the City was expected to do in this
regard.
Vice -Mayor Eck stated that the City couldn't be expected to pick up those costs as it will
be a huge expense.
Councilmember Spiro suggested that the water hookup and sewer all be done at once in
order to save money of having to dig up the area again.
Vice -Mayor Eck stated that staff needs to meet with them and clarify what the City is
willing to do for them and to discuss creating an Assessment District.
City Manager, Netter stated that until we can find an allocation of sewer hookups there is
no allocation available from either Rohnert Park, Santa Rosa or the County.
Rnhnert Park City ('nnnril Min..tno / u i • _..__a

Vice -Mayor Eck suggested that he, City Manager and City Engineer, Ron Brust, meet with
the Canon -Manor homeowners to discuss these issues as he is familiar with the area and
assessment district procedures.
It was the consensus of Council to send a letter and attempt to clarify what can and cannot
be initiated.
Estimated Wastewater Capacity Report and Wastewater Flow Needs Report/Building Permit
allocation - update
City Manager, Netter reviewed a report on remaining estimated wastewater capacity
through August 20, 1996 that was based on November, 1995 average dry weather flow
(mgd), along with a letter from Ron Brust, City Engineer to Miles Ferris, Director of Santa
Rosa Utilities. Copy of these reports are attached to the original set of these minutes.
Mr. Netter explained the 5% error factor discussed with the City of Santa Rosa and
confirmed in the attached letters, and what effect it would have on the City's sewer
capacity.
Vice -Mayor Eck asked if the statistics are going to allow for plus or minuses, why not say
it is a minus and asked why staff is only concerned with the higher numbers.
City Manager Netter stated that the City of Rohnert Park is over, based on the sewer flows
estimates, but with the 5% error factor applied, will be below capacity limits. Mr. Netter
stated the city has confirmed the 5% factor with Miles Ferris and City Engineer Ron Brust.
Mr. Netter also referenced Amendment No. 4 which provides for a temporary loan of
sewer capacity from Santa Rosa. But because of the cost questions, did not want the loan
confused with the 5% error factor provision.
Vice -Mayor Eck asked how much the City would have to pay for the loan and questioned
the reference to interim use and at the same time the city keeps expanding their plans and
soon we will be paying increased costs. He asked how will the money be recovered from
those homes?
City Manager Netter stated that the loan is a separate issue and we will be holding off the
loan until actual costs and methodologies are known.
Councilmember Spiro asked if the City can arbitrarily charge people at the highest rate
going in and then the city could be covered for costs.
City Attorney, John Flitner, advised such an action could be accomplished through a
Development Agreement with the developers and it would have to be consensual.
Rohnert Park City Council Minutes ( 17 ) August 27, 1996
Vice -Mayor Eck stated he had a problem with the rush being put on the loan issue as we
have ten years to accomplish this and he didn't understand why the city is not taking their
time on this subject.
City Manager, Netter stated the City is presently continuing to issue permits for Honey -
brook Subdivision, Rohnert Park East and West Subdivisions, and commercial/industrial
projects, as authorized previously by the City Council, based on the 5% error factor
calculations to meet the City's current commitments, until directed to do otherwise.
Council did not change its prior authorization or direction to allow continued issuance of
building permits.
Shopping Cart Program - Update and impacts of AB 317
City Manager, Netter advised that the Governor signed AB 317 into law and this bill puts
control of shopping cart retrieval legislation at the state level. He stated that the new law
is very cumbersome and needs to be incorporated into our current city ordinance.
Councilmember Reilly suggested a letter be sent to the State and advise them how well our
city ordinance has worked and this should be handled at a local level.
Vice -Mayor Eck referred to a new type of shopping cart that will only go for a certain
distance and then lock up and felt that the supermarkets should look into purchasing them
as they would probably save money in the long run.
Televising Planning Commission Meetings:
City Manager, Netter advised that the Planning Commission voted not to be televised and the
Council could over ride that decision if they wished to. He stated to televise the Planning
Commission meetings it would just be necessary to turn the TV camera on and off and no
other staff time would be required.
Councilmember Reilly suggested a six month trial and see if televising the meetings generates
any interest in continuing to televise them.
Councilmember Spiro stated that if the Planning Commission is to be televised, then Parks &
Recreation and the Mobile Home Parks Rent Appeals Board meetings should also be
televised.
City Manager, Netter stated that the availability of air time is also a constraint.
Vice -Mayor Eck stated that he has not been told by even one person that the televising of the
City Council meetings has made a difference to them.
Councilmember Reilly disagreed and stated that because some people may find the meetings
boring should not deny others public access to view the city's meetings and it should be the
citizens who decide.

following amendment by Mayor Flores.

Dear Miles:
At our meeting on Monday, August 19, 1996, you advised me that the 0.1207 mgd sewer capacity
proposed to be loaned to the City of Rohnert Park by the City of Santa Rosa as part of the Subregional
Wastewater System's Agreement Amendment No. 4 would be part of Santa Rosa's 12.07 mgd share of the
existing 18 mgd Laguna Treatment Plan capacity. You indicated that the cost to the City of Rohnert Park
during the term of the loan would be to pay the 0.1207 mgd incremental costs for both the existing
capacity bond costs and for the 60% capacity preservation project.
I greatly appreciated meeting with you and will be forwarding your comments to the City Manger and City
Council for their information.
Very truly yours,

Dear Miles:
Thank you for meeting with me on Monday, August 19, 1996, to discuss wastewater capacity. You
advised me at that meeting that a +5% wastewater meter error factor is within normal meter operation
accuracy.
Using this accepted meter accuracy the Rohnert Park area wastewater flow capacities are as follows:

0.105
0.655
4.032
You also advised that wastewater flows within a +5% meter error range are acceptable and are not
considered to be exceeding capacity. Additionally, you noted that because of the meter variability it takes
several years of average dry weather flow at or above the +5% capacity range before reasonably accurate
capacity can be established.
Very truly yours,
