(District II) Allen Bell Financial Projects Director reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 01-1134. CoxCom, Inc., is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cox Communication, Inc., with its headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. Cox Communication has been operating since 1962 and is the fifth largest cable television company. The bond proceeds will be used to finance the cost of acquiring, constructing and equipping a call center facility to be located in northeast Wichita. Cox Communication, Inc., is requesting City Council approval of a six-month Letter of Intent to issue Industrial Revenue Bonds in an amount not-to-exceed $6,645,000, and a 50% five-year tax exemption on property purchased with bond proceeds. Cox Communication, Inc., is a full-service provider of telecommunications products that include Cox Cable, local and long-distance telephone services, high speed internet services, advanced digital programming services and commercial voice and data services. The company has approximately 6.2 million customers nationwide and operates in more than 20 states. Cox Communication proposes to build a new 35,000 sf single story call center facility to be located in on 35th St. North the Comotara Industrial Park. The project will serve as the primary call center for the entire Cox Kansas cable and telecommunications system. Initially, the call center will retain 100 jobs within the Wichita area and relocate 24 jobs from other parts of Kansas to Wichita. Cox Communication has committed to hire at least 150 new employees to staff the call center. The project will be leased to CoxCom, Inc., which will serve as tenant in the IRB lease. An analysis of the uses of project funds is: USES OF FUNDS Land $380,000 Building Improvements 4,400,000 Furniture 1,150,000 Equipment 715,000 Total Cost of Project: $6,645,000 The firm of Hinkle Elkouri Law Firm, L.L.C., will serve as bond counsel in the transaction. The bonds will be privately placed with a financial institution. Cox Communication agrees to maintain a current EEO/AA Plan on file with the City, and to comply with all Letter of Intent conditions contained in the City’s IRB Policy. The cost/benefit analysis based on the fiscal and economic impact model of the Wichita State University's Center for Economic Development and Business Research reflects cost/benefit ratios as follows: City of Wichita 5.13 to one Sedgwick County 4.35 to one USD 375 4.22 to one State of Kansas 19.35 to one Cox Communication agrees to pay all costs of issuing the bonds and agrees to pay the City's $2,500 annual IRB administrative fee for the term of the bonds.

Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared Motion -- Pisciotte moved that the Letter of Intent to CoxComm, Inc. and Cox Communications of Kansas, LLC, for Industrial Revenue Bonds in an amount not-to-exceed $6,645,000 be approved; a 50% five-year tax exemption on all bond-financed property, subject to the Standard Letter of Intent Conditions, for a term -- carried of six-months, be granted; and the necessary signatures be authorized. Motion carried 7 to 0. PBC BONDS WICHITA PUBLIC BUILDING COMMISSION (WSU) REFUNDING REVENUE BONDS. Allen Bell Financial Projects Director reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 01-1136. On April 28, 1992, City Council authorized the Wichita Public Building Commission (“PBC”) to issue improvement and refunding revenue bonds for Wichita State University in the amount of $19.6 million. The bonds were issued in two series. The proceeds of the Series G-1 1992 bonds were used principally for the purpose of refinancing previously issued bonds that financed a variety of improvements to WSU over a period of years. Series G-2 1992 bonds were used principally to construct the Elliott School of communication building on the WSU campus. On October 29, 1996, City Council also authorized the issuance of PBC revenue bonds, Series J, 1997, in the amount of $2.2 million to finance the renovation of Cessna Stadium on the campus of Wichita State University. The Wichita Public Building Commission has received a request from Wichita State University for the use of PBC lease revenue bonds in the amount not-to-exceed $18,000,000. The refunding bond proceeds will be used primarily to redeem currently existing debt and pay cost of issuance. The refunding bonds will be secured by an amended lease agreement between the University and the PBC covering all WSU facilities currently under PBC financing. To secure the payment of the bonds, the City and County are required to take official action designating sufficient monies from the 1.5-mill WSU Special Tax Levy for this purpose. An estimated analysis of the uses of project funds is: USES OF FUNDS Amount needed to redeem outstanding bonds $17,577,765.93 Bond insurance premium 49,340.35 Costs of issuance including underwriters discount 188,800.00 Miscellaneous 32,051.62 Total cost of Refinancing Project $17,847,957.90 The debt service payments for the proposed PBC bonds will come from the county-wide 1.5-mill WSU Special Tax Levy and will be paid directly to the bond trustee (by the County Treasurer) as the tax revenues are received. Debt service requirements are expected to be reduced by approximately $50,000 per year as a result of this transaction. Initial debt service savings in the approximate amount of $765,000 will be made available to WSU for various capital projects, subject to approval of the City Council and County Commission. The firm of Hinkle Elkouri Law Firm, L.L.C., will serve as bond counsel in the transaction. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Knight moved that the issuance of Public Building Commission Refunding Bonds in an amount not-to-exceed $18,000,000 to refinance revenue bonds for WSU be approved; the Ordinance authorizing use of WSU Special Levy for payment of the Refunding Bonds be placed on first reading; and the budget adjustment to the WSU Special Tax Levy Budget authorizing the use of debt service savings for the -- carried requested purpose be approved. Motion carried 7 to 0. ORDINANCE An Ordinance of the governing body of the City of Wichita, Kansas, designating the use of a portion of the special ad valorem tax levy made under the authority of K.S.A. 76-3A07 and Charter Ordinance No. 8, as authorized and permitted by K.S.A. 12-1757, Et Seq., as amended and supplemented by Charter Ordinance Nos. 107, 149 and 162 of the City, introduced and under the rules laid over. UTILITY BONDS REFUNDING OF WATER AND SEWER SYSTEM UTILITY REVENUE BONDS, SERIES 1993A; WATER AND SEWER TEMPORARY IMPROVEMENT NOTES, SERIES 2001C. Ray Trail Director of Finance reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 01-1137. In January 1993, the City Council approved the issuance of $76,320,000 Water and Sewer Utility Refunding and Improvement Revenue Bonds, Series A and B, 1993. The Series B, 1993 Bonds, in the amount of $49,865,000 were issued to redeem the balance of the outstanding bonds and provide new money to fund current capital improvement projects. The Series B, 1993 Bonds, were advance refunded in 1998. The Series A, 1993 Bonds, in the amount of $26,455,000 were issued to advance refund a portion of the then outstanding Water and Sewer Revenue bonds. Staff has been studying the potential of creating debt service savings by refunding all of the remaining Series A, 1993 Bonds, and is seeking Council authorization to proceed with the structuring of a refunding bond issue. In addition to the negotiated offering, the City is planning to offer for sale one series of general obligation temporary notes in an amount not-to-exceed $20,000,000, for the purpose of providing temporary financing for various utility capital improvement projects of the City. Bids will be solicited from major underwriting firms that have been active in bidding on other temporary note issues of the City. Refunding - State and federal law permits local governments to issue refunding bonds which replace previously issued and currently outstanding bonds. If the bonds being refunded are currently callable, they can be refunded with “current refunding” bonds, without limitation as to the number of times the original bonds have been refunded. If the bonds being refunded are not currently callable, they can only be refunded with “advance refunding” bonds. Tax-exempt bonds originally issued after the effective date of the 1986 Tax Reform Act can only be advance refunded once. The Series A, 1993 Water and Sewer Bonds were advance refunding bonds and therefore could not be advance refunded when the Series B, 1993 Bonds were refunded in 1998. The Series A, 1993 Bonds are callable and would qualify for a current refunding at this time. Staff has investigated the savings potential from a current refunding of all of the Series A, 1993 Bonds and has determined that significant savings in debt service costs can be obtained. Based on current bond market conditions, it is estimated that approximately $1.96 million in debt service costs can be saved, with a present value of approximately $1.3 million. Staff sent out a Request for Proposal for negotiated underwriting services. The underwriting firm of George K. Baum submitted a proposal to be the Senior Managing Underwriter of a syndicate of other local underwriting firms included as part of the management team. The sale of the Series 1993 Bonds was negotiated with a consortium of local investment banking firms led by George K. Baum and Co. Staff recommends using a negotiated approach to selling the refunding bonds because of the potential for volatility in the bond market and the need for specialized structuring expertise and other administrative assistance that underwriters can provide in a negotiated transaction, which results in achieving optimal savings. Temporary Notes - The proceeds from the sale of the Series 2001C, Water and Sewer Temporary Improvement Notes will be used to provide interim financing for various sewer utility at-large projects. In the past, construction costs were paid from cash balances in the Water and Sewer Fund, which were reimbursed with bond proceeds when projects were permanently financed with revenue bonds. In order to relieve pressure on water and sewer rates, Staff proposes issuing general obligation temporary notes to cover short-term construction financing requirements, and converting notes to revenue bonds as required. The estimated present value savings of $1.3 million is equal to approximately 7.8% of the par amount of the 1993 Bonds being refunded. Generally accepted standards for determining the appropriate level of savings in a bond refunding suggest a minimum 3% as the threshold. The proposed refunding far exceeds the minimum threshold. Based on that standard, the proposed refunding is financially sound. The use of interim (temporary note) financing on water and sewer projects is one part of the strategies under development to mitigate future rate increases. Interim financing in advance of permanent bond financing allows for more precise sizing of bond issues and extends the bond financing and debt service to a future point in time when the projects are completed and serving the ratepayer, as well as a point when the utility revenue base has grown to a level to sustain debt service costs with a lower rate impact. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Knight moved that staff be authorized to proceed to negotiate a current refunding of Series A, 1993 Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds with the local underwriting syndicate led by George K. Baum & Co.; and to proceed with solicitation of bids for a temporary note sale to provide interim financing for sewer -- carried capital projects. Motion carried 7 to 0. LAND DONATION DONATION OF LAND FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND PARKS DEVELOPMENT. (District I) Roy Johnson Housing Services Director reviewed the Item. Agenda Report # 01-1138. The Tjaden family, owners of a tract of land located at 25th Street North and Minnesota (east of I-135), have approached the City regarding acceptance of donation of their property. The tract is a former site of oil field activity, which is no longer operating on the site. The proposed site donation has been evaluated by the Property Management Office, Housing Services, Park, and Health Departments. Although the Health Department has issued a preliminary determination that a certain degree of underground water contamination is present (including contamination from residual materials left as a result of the existence of oil and natural gas wells), the site has been deemed to be potentially acceptable for residential development and possibly park use. Further testing is currently in process, utilizing Brownfields grant funding, in order to determine the extent of the ground water contamination and other potential environmental concerns. Provided that test results prove favorable to the development of residential housing, and provided that construction/permanent mortgage loan financing can be secured, Housing Services proposes donation of the site by the City to POWER CDC, one of the City's designated non-profit Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO) for the development of single-family owner-occupied housing. A plat will be completed identifying residential parcels and areas to be reserved for parks. The parcels/lots designated for home construction will be deeded to Power CDC, with individual lots deeded to qualifying, owner-occupant households, upon completion of home construction. Should the additional testing prove unfavorable to the development of housing, the land would be utilized by the Park Department for the development of park and open space. Funding for housing will be accomplished using private construction loans, HOME development funding, and HOME assistance for income eligible home buyers and special assessments. Ongoing maintenance of the park and open space will be provided by the Department of Park and Recreation. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Brewer moved that acceptance of donation of the land and the deeding of identified residential parcels -- carried to Power CDC; and identified parcels to the Park Department be approved. Motion carried 7 to 0. HOMELESS PLAN CCHA HOMELESS STRATEGY PLAN Roy Johnson Housing Services Director reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 01-1139. In 1997 the Homeless Task Force completed a proposed Comprehensive Plan to Address Homelessness. While this document was seen as a thoughtful plan which provided information on the needs of the homeless, staff review indicated refinements were necessary if it is to be a valuable and useful tool for public policy decisions relating to homelessness. In December 1999, City Council authorized funding to hire a consultant to work with the homeless providers and to make recommendations on amendments to the plan. The consultant’s report was presented to the City Council on October 17, 2000. At a subsequent workshop, the Council accepted the recommendation of the consultant to recognize the Community Council on Homelessness (formerly the Homeless Task Force) as the primary planning entity for homeless issues in the Wichita area. The Council requested staff to develop an action plan, based on the consultant’s report. Subsequently, staff worked with the Community Council on Homelessness (CCHA) to develop a long-term strategic plan. The CCHA has developed a strategic plan which contains both long term and short-term strategies for addressing homelessness. The plan is divided into eight (8) goal or target areas; Continuum of Care (i.e., goals related to how the overall system functions), Advocacy, Homeless Prevention, Outreach, Emergency Shelter, Transitional Housing, Permanent Supportive Housing, and Permanent Housing. Each area has specific objectives with the respective steps, timelines and responsible parties indicated. The plan recognizes that while the past few years have seen the development of a database that captures information on persons seeking shelter, more in-depth information and research is needed in some areas before specific action steps can be delineated. The document has been reviewed by the Housing Advisory Board and the DCC, and both recommended that it be forwarded to the City Council for approval. The strategic plan does not assume or request additional local funding at this time. It does, however, attempt to identify those action steps which will require additional funding if implemented, without specifying the source. Most of the funding will be sought through federal grants or increased funding from the state, or private fundraising. Each action step will formulate its own set of strategic actions, funding needs, sources, etc., and progress reports to be provided. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Knight moved that the strategic plan be accepted and staff be directed to continue working with the -- carried CCHA in the implementation. Motion carried 7 to 0. (Addendum Item No. 5a) DAY REPORTING DAY REPORTING CENTER LOCATION AND FACILITY. Ray Trail Director of Finance reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 01-1187. On May 8, 2001, the City Council approved an ordinance regulating the siting of Day Reporting Centers in the City. The ordinance addressed both siting and regulatory criteria for such facilities. The ordinance states the following: Day Reporting Centers must be located 1,200 feet from an existing facility; day care centers or facilities; public parks or playgrounds; private businesses that primarily serve children and/or youth under the age of 18; public or private preschools, elementary, middle and high schools; residences or agencies that provide on-site services to persons suffering from developmental, physical or mental disabilities; taverns or drinking establishments; adult entertainment establishments; and residential zoning districts. The ordinance provides authority for the City Council to waive specific distance and separation and spacing requirements. In addition to the siting and regulatory requirements (listed in the ordinance), facilities are governed by the City Zoning Code. The Code allows Day Reporting Centers in General and Limited Industrial Zoning Districts, only with a conditional use permit. Staff has been working with the State and its operator, Community Solutions, Inc. (CSI), the private company selected by the Kansas Department of Corrections to manage the Wichita facility, on appropriate locations. Nearly 50 sites were considered by a review team. Possible locations were screened to sites considered the best locations. The City Council previously considered in detail two sites for a Day Reporting Center (Harry and McLean and 3400 block of North Ohio) owned by the City of Wichita. Both of these sites have not successfully cleared the regulatory hurdles for approval. A third, privately owned, site has been identified for City Council consideration: 703 East 21st Street North Location - Existing office facility (occupied by SER through the end of 2001) Size - 43,200 sq. ft. Owner - Webb Road Development, Inc. Zoning - General Industrial Description - Existing 7,350 facility will be razed and a new 10,000 sq. ft., facility (142’x70’) plus parking constructed to meet day reporting specifications Utilities - All Available Area Description - South side of 21st between Emporia and Mosley with auto sales lot to the west, National-By-Products Cowhide Warehouse to the east, City drainage directly to the south, and industrial/commercial uses on the north side of 21st. The area on the north side of 21st was the old Stockyards Bank building that was a correctional placement residence prior to demolition. Railroad right-of-way, rail siding, I-135, old refinery, and drainageways provide additional barriers. The site would have to be replatted. Central Inspection has evaluated the area within 1,200 feet surrounding the proposed site and found no incompatible uses with the area. A conditional use permit will be required for the proposed use on this site. If this site is designated by the City Council, the matter will also be referred to the District Advisory Board (VI) and the Alternative Correctional Housing Advisory Board for review and comment, as well as to the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission for approval of the conditional use permit. Facility size requirements for Day Reporting Center are between 8,000 to 10,000 square feet. Based upon preliminary cost estimates, construction of a private facility of this size will necessitate lease payments of $9,000 per month for the first five years and $9,500 per month for the second five years. To reduce the monthly lease payments to within the $6,500 monthly allotment available to CSI for the first five years (with an estimated $7,000 monthly payment the second five years) will necessitate a one-time, front-end cash contribution by the City of $215,000. If the governing body approves funding of a portion of the Riverside Park capital project with $215,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, this would, in turn, free up a like amount of local funds to cover direct City participation in the day reporting facility construction. If approved, City staff will also work with the Kansas Department of Corrections and CSI to develop necessary agreements that will address long-term funding options needed to retire the debt. The developer has also requested a City’s “wrap-around” guarantee on a ten year lease as part of the development package; this will be a moral obligation of the City subject to annual appropriation. Ray Trail Director of Finance, responding to questions, said this facility is only one of the facilities in this community providing like services. The $215,000 of CDBG funds would be a one-time cost. As projects are closed, the savings at the end of the year will be examined for reallocation to other projects. Tom Docking Tom Docking, representing CSI, spoke regarding the 21st Street interchange reconstruction, said the facility will have to have some kind of access. If CSI has a facility, even with temporary minimal access, CSI will be very happy. Responding to a question, Mr. Docking said the facility is operated with Federal funds allocated to the State Department of Corrections. State Statutes call for establishment of three DRCs in Kansas – with one in Wichita. In 2001, Kansas Legislature approved a proviso allowing the Secretary of Corrections to override any municipality that does not approve a site. Council Member Lambke Council Member Lambke stated that a facility should be constructed that $6,500 per month would cover the cost of construction. Council Member Brewer Council Member Brewer said he disagreed with using CDBG funding; however, if this site is not selected, there will be a site and it may be one the State selects. At this time, Council Member Brewer would have to support this site and the use of CDBG funds. Council Member Fearey Council Member Fearey also said she wished it were not necessary to use CDBG funds; however, the use for the facility is appropriate. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Fearey moved that 703 East 21st Street be designated as the preferred site for a Day Reporting Center; negotiations of Agreements be authorized; filing of license application and C.U.P. be approved; and the -- carried necessary signatures be authorized. Motion carried 6 to 0. Lambke - no. (The following Item was taken up later in the meeting; action is shown in Agenda order.)

In 1957, as a condition of Federal assistance in construction of the Wichita-Valley Center Flood Control Project, the City of Wichita entered into a cooperative Agreement with the United States Geological Survey (U.S.G.S.) to install and maintain stream recorders along the project. Rainfall recorders were added later for the City’s own use. In 1965, the Water Department added stream-gauging stations at Cheney Reservoir. The Department of Public Works uses recorders to monitor rainfall through the drainage basins affecting the project to determine volumes of incoming water. This collected data is transmitted to the weather bureau, which transmits the data to the River Forecast Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The data is statistically analyzed and published by U.S.G.S. The Water Department monitors the flow of water into and out of Cheney Reservoir and relays the elevation of the lake to the Corps of Engineers. The Agreement requires the City to pay $29,070 of the $48,500 total program cost, with U.S.G.S. responsible for the balance of $19,430. Budget for the City’s cost is split between the Water and Sewer Department ($14,055) and City-County Flood Control ($15,015). In addition, the City provides office space for the United States Geological Survey, WRD, Kansas District for which it charges annual rent of $14,000. This amount is paid by Flood Control to the City’s Property Management Operations Fund to offset a portion of the $15,015 program costs. The balance of $1,015 is paid directly to U.S.G.S.

Due to the level of heightened interest shown towards the proposed Access Management Policy, additional meetings have been required for input from stakeholders, and subsequent multiple revisions to the draft document have been prepared. While significant work has been completed, further changes to the proposed policy document, and additional reviews and discussions are planned with the Task Force, District Advisory Boards, Metropolitan Area Planning Commission, and the governing bodies of the City of Wichita and Sedgwick County. This contract amendment provides an additional $16,000 to the original $64,714 contracted amount.

Agenda Report No. 01-1154. The City has a Contract with PEC to perform on-site construction management and inspection for the new Northwest Sewage Treatment Plant. The Contract requires the City furnish administrative support to the construction manager (typically a cost savings). Individuals supplied through temporary service agencies have a high turnover rate. Allied Laboratories (a department of PEC) has approached Staff about supplying administrative support from within their organization. In addition, the selected individual would provide administrative support for the Main Pump Station project, Phase 2 of the Northwest Treatment Plant (wetlands development), and the Dual Force Main project. The proposed Contract offers an opportunity to retain experienced administrative support for the projects, and the advantage of lower turnover rate and total cost to the City. Allied Laboratories would have the responsibility of project administrative assistance. Total cost for the administrative services would be $27,145. Funding is available in CIP S-512, Northwest Sewage Treatment Plant and Basins, 1,2, and 3. Motion -- Knight moved that the Agreement be approved and the necessary signatures be authorized.

The City Council approved the 2000 Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update on May 4, 1999. PEC was selected to provide the engineering services for the project. Supplemental Agreement No. 1 to the Plan was approved on September 12, 2000, for the development of a dynamic hydraulic model. Supplemental Agreement No. 2 is for engineering services to revise the 2000 Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update to incorporate system impact and system needs necessitated by the continued use of Cowskin Creek Pump Station. The Agreement lists the tasks to be performed and the anticipated work required to complete the update revisions. Maintaining operation of the Cowskin Creek Pump Station is critical to the sanitary sewer operation for the western portion of the City. The Agreement is for $69,975 and will be paid as part of the 2000 Sanitary Sewer Master Plan Update (CIP S-508). The existing budget must be increased to include the costs for this Supplemental Agreement and also for Supplemental Agreement #1 for management of projects associated with acquisition of the county sewer facilities that was approved on March 20, 2001. It is requested that the current budget of $500,000 be increased by $150,000 for a total of $650,000. The project will be funded by revenues or a future bond sale. Motion -- Knight moved that the budget and Agreement be approved; and the necessary signatures be authorized. -- carried Motion carried 7 to 0. CREDIT CARD CREDIT CARD MERCHANT SERVICES AGREEMENT. Agenda Report No. 01-1157. The City of Wichita currently has fifteen offices that accept MasterCard and Visa through a merchant service agreement with Commerce Bank. This service is limited to “in-person” transactions or customers paying while at the specific location. With the acceptance and enhancement of the Internet, customers are requesting the ability to pay for services through the Internet utilizing a credit card type transaction. In addition to offering credit card payment services via the Internet, the City would also like to offer customers expanded options when paying at City Hall or one of its facilities. A request for proposal for credit card services was distributed to area financial institutions in May 2001. The City received five responses. (Commerce, Intrust, UMB, Bank of America & Cardx) The responses were reviewed for their ability to meet the City’s current and future requirements in the area of Internet payment processing as well as standard credit card services. Three finalist firms were interviewed (Commerce, UMB & Bank of America). The City requires a partner that has extensive experience in the implementation and design of the City’s Internet “shopping cart and payment station”. In order to operate at optimal efficiency, the City will need customized data interfaces into the various city computer systems in order to eliminate duplicate data entry. There will be substantial business changes required as a result of electronic payment processing. Financial institutions charge for credit card processing in various ways. All financial institutions charge a merchant fee that is a percentage of total sales. Additional transactions fees are charged for voice approvals, swiping or keying the entry, charge backs, data capture, statements etc. Bank of America, based on the Treasurer’s pro forma analysis of estimated transactions, would result in the lowest annual costs. Bank of America’s merchant fee will be 1.86% as compared to the current fee of 2.01%. During 2000, the City processed $1.6 million in credit card transactions. The total cost for these transactions was $41,300. Credit card costs will substantially increase as usage increases, particularly if Internet payment processing increases in popularity. It is anticipated that the credit card program will increase 50% each year for the next three years eventually processing $10 million in annual revenue. This equates to approximately $250,000 in annual fees within the next three years. Fees will be partially offset by an increase in efficiency and lower costs per transaction. Money may be deposited a day earlier by using a credit card than by depositing a check and certainly there is an expectation that there would be a decline in insufficient funds checks and the costs associated in collecting them. Currently, general fund credit card expenses are absorbed as a banking fee from the PIM (Pooled Money Investment) fee. Credit card expense for non-general funds are charged against current year operating revenue. It is anticipated the PIM charge will need to be increased up to ten (10) basis points (50 to 60) to recover annual fees across all funds. The agreement will be approved as to form by the Law Department prior to execution. Motion -- Knight moved that Bank of America be approved to provide credit card merchant services; and a ten basis point increase in the PIM charge to pay the additional expenses connected with program -- carried expansion and the necessary signatures be authorized.

March 20, 2001, the City Council allocated $200,000 of 2001-2002 HOME funding to the Housing Services Department's Boarded-up HOME program, which provides a mechanism for Community Housing Development Organizations (CHDO's) to access funding in order to address boarded-up or otherwise dilapidated structures within the City's Local Investment Areas. Four (4) of the City's CHDO's, Mennonite Housing, Power CDC, Wichita Indochinese Center and Community Housing Services have agreed to participate in the program, and will be parties to the funding agreement. Under the agreement, these organizations may receive funding in order to rehabilitate existing homes or construct new homes on properties where there is a boarded-up or otherwise blighted/dilapidated structure. Funding may also be provided for acquisition and demolition expenses. The funding agreement has been structured as an amendment to last year's funding agreement for this program. Funding under this agreement will be provided in the form of zero-interest forgivable loans. Motion -- Knight moved that the Amendment to the Grant Agreement be approved and the necessary signatures -- carried be authorized. Motion carried 7 to 0. (Addendum Item #15p) RAW WATER LINE SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT NO. 1 TO THE ENGINEERING SERVICES CONTRACT FOR THE INSTALLATION OF A 66-INCH RAW WATER LINE FROM 21ST STREET AND ZOO TO THE WATER TREATMENT PLANT Agenda Report No. 01-1190. The City of Wichita provides treated drinking water to 331,000 people. The service population is projected to increase to over 438,000 by 2010. To ensure that future water needs of the service area are met, the Water and Sewer Department initiated a study of its water system. A study of the raw water delivery system was done for the Water and Sewer Utility. In July 1999, a report was submitted regarding raw water delivery, which made specific recommendations for system reliability and system upgrade. On January 25, 2000, the City Council approved the project to construct a 66” Raw Water Line from 21st Street and Zoo to the Water Treatment Plant and awarded a contract for engineering services for the project. The contract for the design of the 66-inch raw water line was awarded to Professional Engineering Consultants (PEC) and is in the process of being designed. Currently under contract for construction is a project to slipline the existing 48-inch raw water line from the treatment plant to approximately the City limits. The current alignment of the 48-inch raw water line is through Sim Park Golf Course. The proposed alignment will disrupt play at the golf course and result in extensive site restoration and expense. It has been determined that the slip lining project should be realigned through the golf course to reduce restoration costs and minimize disruption of play. The alignment of the 48-inch raw water line will parallel the proposed 66-inch raw water line. For constructability, the lines must be installed at the same time to avoid additional costs if constructed separately. By constructing the lines at the same time, disruption to the neighborhood for multiple projects is avoided, and paving replacement costs will be minimized. The supplemental agreement is for the design of the 48-inch line running parallel to the alignment of the proposed 66-inch raw water line adjacent to the golf course property. The Capital Improvement Program (CIP # W-807) budget is $3.0 million for 2000, $4.0 million for 2001 and $5.6 million for 2002, for a total project cost of $12.6 million. The amount of the supplemental agreement to the original contract is $12,500. This project will be funded from Water Utility revenues and reserves or a future revenue bond issue.

(District VI) Agenda Report No. 01-1158 The Ralph Wulz Tennis Center, located in Central Riverside Park, is one of the City’s largest. It has been home to regional tennis tournaments and has a reputation for being one of the better facilities in the region. In 1999, the Wulz Tennis Center was renovated. Renovations included new post tension courts, cosmetic improvements to perimeter fencing, and interior improvements to the clubhouse, restrooms and locker rooms. This project will further improve the center by adding six courts within a building or buildings to allow for all weather play. In June 2001, the City requested proposals from qualified firms to provide architectural services for the design of the indoor tennis complex. Five firms responded as follows: Hanney & Associates, Howard & Helmer, Law/Kingdon, Inc., Schaefer Johnson Cox Frey & Associates, and Wilson Darnell Mann. The Staff Screening and Selection Committee interviewed Howard & Helmer, Schaefer Johnson Cox Frey & Associates, and Wilson Darnell Mann. The firm of Wilson Darnell Mann was selected for this project based on their competitive fee for services and their involvement with the Riverside Park system improvements and modifications. Architectural fees for the Programming, Pre Design, and Schematic Design Phases of this project are $75,000.00 including reimbursable expenses.
