Motion -- carried Knight moved that an Item be taken up off the Agenda. Motion carried 5 to 0. (Ferris, Rogers; absent) Mayor Knight Mayor Knight said the community has lost a valuable member with the loss of Rueben Molina to cancer. Mayor Knight asked that the Council support Council Member Cole talking to the Molina family regarding naming the park at Main and 13th Street after Rueben Molina, and returning to the Council with a formal recommendation at a regular City Council meeting. Council Member Cole Council Member Cole stated that she had been impressed that the family found donors for others afflicted with the disease and had been able to look beyond their own grief to help others. Consensus of the Council was that Council Member Cole be asked to visit with the Molina family and return to the Council with reasons the park should be named after Rueben Molina and with what this would mean to the community; and the recommendation be brought back to the City Council at a regular Council meeting. UNFINISHED BUSINESS PEDESTRIAN CROSSING PROPOSED MODIFICATION OF PEDESTRIAN CROSSING AT CENTRAL AND MAIZE. (District V) Bill McKinley Traffic Engineer reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No.96-208 A. In March 1988, the City Commission approved the installation of right-turn signals, as well as "No Right Turn On Red" signs at the intersection of Central and Maize. In addition, the signal timing was changed so that when pedestrians pushed the button to receive a "walk" light, the entire intersection would change to red for one minute, thus eliminating pedestrian traffic conflicts. These changes were made to protect students going to and from Peterson Elementary School. On March 19, 1996, the City Council requested that this item be referred to CPO Northwest Council 5 for consideration. At the CPO Council meeting on April 10, 1996, there were no citizens present to provide comments on this item. Therefore, action was postponed until additional notification could be given to parents of children attending Peterson Elementary School. On May 30, 1996, the CPO Northwest 5 Neighborhood Council considered the modification of the pedestrian crossing at Central and Maize. Due to a lack of a quorum, a vote was not taken; however, the consensus of the Council (four members) was to recommend allowing right turns on red after a complete stop at all times. Staff concurs with the CPO recommendation to lift the restrictions to allow right turns on red. The signing modifications to the intersection of Central and Maize will cost approximately $500. The work can be performed by City crews without an increase in the Traffic Maintenance budget. Bill McKinley Traffic Engineer, responding to questions, said this used to be a hazardous area for school children but in the 1980's the intersection was improved and sidewalks were provided and busing of children was removed. The safest solution for the children would be to leave this the way it is at the present time; however, it is not a realistic restriction for the motorists. Council Member Kamen Council Member Kamen said if the School District should decide to put busing in place again after this change, the cost would be about $20,000 to $30,000 per year. Bill McKinley Traffic Engineer said the sign would cover the school children as they come and go from school. Eight different counts of the intersection have shown a maximum of 11 children go through the intersection. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Council Member Ferris Council Member Ferris said it is not the intent of the school system to re-institute busing and it is believed the recommended action will solve many of the complaints. Motion -- Ferris moved that the modifications at the intersection of Central and Maize be -- carried approved. Motion carried 5 to 1. Kamen - No. (Rogers absent) GREASE TRAP PROPOSAL GREASE TRAP LOAN PROPOSAL. Continued from June 4, 1996. Chris Cherches City Manager reviewed the Item. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard. Mike Dunigan Mike Dunigan, R & S Bar-B-Q, said he had reviewed the alternatives and that he leans toward the special assessments option. Mr. Dunigan asked the Council to consider that some owners have multiple restaurants and some face up to $65,000 costs plus being closed for up to three weeks. These owners will need the City's help. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight said he could not support the special assessments which was the most complicated method. Council Member Kamen Council Member Kamen spoke in favor of the special assessments option because the loan option would impede the ability of some owners to obtain additional financing. Chris Cherches City Manager said legal research brought out several legal complications with the special assessments option. Some complications were of the nature property owners might not even agree to. In a sense, the property owner would be asked to grant an easement or, if not, the City would need to condemn a portion of a private property on which the improvement would be installed. While the Legal Department has found a way to make this possible, it would be a circumvention of the real intent to carve out a piece of property and make it public to allow an assessment to occur. It is believed that this would be an administrative nightmare to administer over a period of time. Also unsure is how the County Appraiser would handle the matter. Mr. Dunigan is the only property owner in one and one-half years to indicate an interest in trying to obtain financing from the City. Council Member Cole Council Member Cole said she could not support special assessments and she would prefer a pilot program with short term period before evaluation of the program. Motion -- Cather moved that the loan assistance program be approved with a $20,000 maximum amount and a 5-year maximum term for businesses unable to obtain loans in the -- carried community; and the Resolution be adopted. Motion carried 6 to 0. (Rogers absent) RESOLUTION NO. R-96-259 A Resolution establishing a grease trap loan assistance program and setting forth the eligibility requirements for such program and the procedure for the granting and administering of such loans, presented. Cather moved that the Resolution be adopted. Motion carried 6 to 0. (Rogers absent) Yeas: Cather, Cole, Ferris, Gale, Kamen, Knight. ADDENDUM ITEM UPDATE OF CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS AUDIO VISUAL EQUIPMENT. Gordon Bassham Public Information Officer reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 96-473. In 1975, when City Hall was built, 35 mm slide projection equipment was installed in the City Council Chambers to provide graphics support for presentations made to the Council as well as other boards and commissions. This equipment included a rear image projection screen and two xenon lamp slide projectors. In 1994, the advance of technology allowed the Council to upgrade the system by adding a rear screen video projection system to the existing slide system to allow the Council to view video tape and computer-generated presentations. The two old 35 mm slide projection systems, which are no longer being manufactured, are beginning to fail, resulting in high maintenance costs. Parts and bulbs for the projectors are impossible to locate, and it is only a matter of time until the system fails completely, thereby preventing quality presentations. In addition, the podium used by the public, Staff and others to make presentations to the Council is no longer in compliance with current requirements under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). After studying a number of other cities to determine their approach to handling audio and visual presentations during public meetings, Staff engaged the consulting firm of Electronic Interiors to assist in the development of plans to improve the audio, visual and presentation systems in the Council Chambers. The consultant recommended a number of areas in which the Chambers should be improved in order to comply with ADA and enhance the quality of presentations made to the Council and other groups. The analysis includes _ Presentation Display and Sources Systems _ ADA Compliance of the Podium _ Audio System _ Cable TV Coverage Presentation Display and Sources Systems The consultant determined that the size and location of the projection screen currently being used is inadequate for viewing critical materials by the Council and the public. The screen uses an antiquated technology that will not amplify light passing through it, thereby making it difficult to view presentations. Additionally, the consultant reported that video presentations are difficult to see from a majority of public seats in the Council chambers, in that the distance and viewing angles makes it difficult for most of the public to view the same visual material presented to the Council during a public meeting. The consultant also reported that the new technology video slide projection system installed behind the screen two years ago is incompatible with the old technology of the present viewing screen. Since video projection systems use lower resolution than slide projectors, a higher resolution viewing screen is needed in order to effectively view graphics with even moderate detail, such as maps, etc. ADA Compliance of the Podium After studying the podium in the Chambers in the context of ADA requirements, it was determined the podium does not comply with current standards, making it difficult for physically challenged citizens to effectively participate in presentations before the Council. In addition, the public podium, which faces the Council bench, can not be used to make presentations to the audience, requiring the use of a second portable podium. These problems can be solved by installing a new podium that is ADA compatible and swivels for presentations to either the Council or the public. Audio System The consultant also determined that the audio system presently in use requires the microphones of all the Council members to be turned on at the same time. This not only makes it difficult for Council members to know when their microphones are on, it also causes serious acoustic feedback unless the system is carefully and constantly monitored by an experienced audio operator. The current system also is inadequate and cannot be expanded to include additional audio sources. These problems can be overcome through the installation of a new system that is highly automated and signals each Council member when their microphone is turned on. Cable TV Coverage The consultant's report observed that the current placement of the television cameras in the chambers renders certain public seats useless. Additionally, the report concludes that the placement of the cameras within the audience is intrusive, intimidating to the public, and often calls more attention to the camera operators than to the activity at the Council Table. The placement of the camera on the dias also is a distraction to the audience, and effectively blocks the view of the tack board from the Council seats. The consultant concluded a highly automated video camera switching system could be installed, which would result in significant long-term savings to the City. After reviewing the recommendations from Electronic Interiors, Staff has concluded that the video, presentation and audio systems in the Council chambers should be modified. To diminish the impact on the public, the business before the Council and the City budget, it is recommended this be accomplished in phases. Design Phase This phase will allow the City to retain Electronic Interiors, Inc. to develop a comprehensive schematic plan with preliminary proposed budgets by each work phase as defined below. Cost: $8,000 Construction Phase 1 This phase, which will upgrade the existing video, audio and presentation systems, includes the repositioning of the existing viewing screen and rear projection room; addition of a second screen and rear projection room; upgrading of the public presentation podium to bring it into ADA compliance; installation of an overhead camera above the podium for use in presentations to the Council; and upgrading and adding to the existing video presentation system. _ Construct 2 new rear projection rooms _ Install 2 new high-gain rear projection screens _ Construct a new ADA compliant lectern with monitors _ Update electrical rough-ins _ Repair floor, doors and carpet to projection rooms _ Update sound system _ Add overhead graphics camera for podium _ Add new computer interface for video display system _ Add new video presentation switcher _ Add new presentation random access remote control system _ Reinstall existing video/data projector _ Add second video/data projector _ Provide presentation video feed to existing control room Estimated Cost: $168,000 - $213,000 Construction Phase 2 This phase will reconstruct the Council and staff seating areas. It includes modifying the Council dias, bench and staff desk to include installation of small video monitors and computer terminals. _ Reconstruct main dias and Staff desk _ Install video monitors between each Council position on the bench _ Add computer remote control stations at Council and Staff positions _ Repair floor and carpet Estimated Cost: $22,000 - $34,000 Construction Phase 3 This phase will upgrade the existing video broadcasting equipment and systems in the Council chambers. This phase will allow the City to reduce personnel and operating expenses of Council meeting broadcasts. _ Install new cable coverage remote control cameras _ Install new city-owned control room equipment _ Install video and audio equipment to allow for a two-person operation _ Update electrical rough-ins Estimated Cost: $90,000 - $135,000 The overall cost of reconstructing the Council Chambers to upgrade the video, audio and presentation systems and bring the Chambers into compliance with ADA is expected to cost between $288,000 and $390,000. The range in costs results from an inability at this point to determine the extent of reconstruction necessary primarily in Construction Phase 1. Additionally, final costs will be determined by the number of features, the quality of the systems installed along with competitive bids. If the Council approves this expenditure, it is anticipated the City will reduce its costs to broadcast the Council meetings from the present $70,000 per year to approximately $30,000 per year, thus resulting in a pay back of costs over 10 years can be estimated. It is recommended that the costs for this capital outlay be from General Fund Reserves. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Council Member Gale momentarily absent. Council Member Cole Council Member Cole said the Council's audio visual system has been piecemeal for a number of years and she would like to see it fixed. The system should be replaced in a comprehensive manner. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight said he would like to see the question compete with community needs when the Council does the annual budget. Gordon Bassham Public Information Director explained that the difference between the bottom-end and top-end figures depends on the "bells and whistles," and that it depends on the vendors and other construction costs. There is a lot of information the City does not have. Council Member Cole Council Member Cole said it would also be helpful to know exactly what kind of expenditure is being talked about. Motion -- Knight moved that this Item be deferred until after the 1997 Budget Hearings. -- carried Motion carried 5 to 1. Cather - No. (Rogers absent) NEW BUSINESS 21ST STREET/RIDGE ROAD PETITION TO IMPROVE 21ST STREET/RIDGE ROAD INTERSECTION. (District V) Steve Lackey Director of Public Works reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 96-495. The proposed 1996-2005 Capital Improvement Program contains a project (CIP No. MS-9305) to reconstruct the entire one mile section from 21st to 29th Streets. On March 5, 1996, the City Council authorized the Staff Screening and Selection Committee to select a consultant for the design of this project. This project is a combination of petitioned projects for accel-decel and left turn lanes to serve properties at the northeast and northwest quadrants of the intersection of 21st Street and Ridge Road, and an at-large funded project to construct two through lanes of traffic in each direction on Ridge Road. The signatures on the petition represents 88% (6 of 10 owners) of the improvement district area. CPO Council 5 considered the petition on May 29, 1996. The CPO Council did not have a quorum. It was the consensus of those members present to recommend approval of the project. The project consists of: (1) widening Ridge Road to four lanes, 2) constructing accel-decel lanes and left turn lanes, and (3) landscaping the right-of-way. A related project will provide a left turn lane into Lake Ridge Addition, a single family neighborhood north of 21st Street, east of Ridge Road. The petition budget is $749,500 with $435,000 assessed to the improvement district and $314,500 paid by the City. The method of assessment is the fractional basis. Assessments to individual properties will vary from $2,000 to $112,000 per lot. The City's share of the total project is $1,985,000 and the funding source is General Obligation Bonds. It is included in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP No. MS- 9305). Steve Lackey Director of Public Works said it is planned to carry traffic two- ways during construction but it may be that traffic will have to be limited to one-way south bound. Council Member Ferris Council Member Ferris expressed concern if all that traffic had to make a left-turn onto 21st Street. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Ferris moved that the Petition be approved and the Resolution be adopted. -- carried Motion carried 6 to 0. (Rogers absent) RESOLUTION NO. R-96-260 Resolution of findings of advisability and Resolution authorizing improving of the area of Ridge Road from 21st Street North to 29th Street North Project No. 472-82735 in the City of Wichita, Kansas, pursuant to findings of advisability made by the Governing Body of the City of Wichita, Kansas, presented. Ferris moved that the Resolution be adopted. Motion carried 6 to 0. (Rogers absent) Yeas: Cather, Cole, Ferris, Gale, Kamen, Knight. SOLID WASTE PUBLIC COMMENT ON SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard. Wayne Youngers Wayne Youngers, Sedgwick County Citizens for environmentally Responsible Waste Management, presented petitions with approximately 3,000 signatures. The Petition read as follows: "The following constituents of Sedgwick County hereby express our unified position on what appear to be the two most economically viable options for disposal of our solid waste: transfer stations or local landfills. It is our conviction that the construction of a transfer station provides an equitable solution for the citizens, the business community, and the environment of Sedgwick County. "We support the establishment of a solid waste transfer station as the best environmental solution for our county because it is our belief that transferring our waste to these established landfills offer groundwater, geological, and population density advantages. Moreover, these existing landfills are requesting our solid waste in order to satisfy their volume requirements. A transfer station also has the additional advantages of more closely policing chemical wastes, encouraging recycling efforts, and does not require tax dollars to be set aside for disaster cleanup and waste site monitoring. "Siting another local landfill or regional landfill in Sedgwick County is ;an irresponsible choice for disposal of solid waste. Due to the proximity of ground water within the County, the siting of a landfill could potentially become an environmental catastrophe. The leaching collection and liner technology for Sub Title D Landfills, although improved, has not been adequately tested to assure containment for the life span of a landfill. Many experts believe that they will inevitably leak, resulting in permanent contamination of groundwater in the county. With continued county growth, siting a landfill of this magnitude will be impossible without inflicting long term environmental hazards and health dangers to citizens. Furthermore, recycling efforts will never increase in Sedgwick County as long as trash haulers can dispose of solid waste in a landfill less expensively than participating in recycling efforts. Siting a landfill in the county will deter further economic growth which will negatively affect county residents, small municipalities, and eventually, the City of Wichita. "This signed document serves as a notice to all public officials of our unified position on this environmental issue. We remain steadfast in our conviction that the construction of a landfill in Sedgwick County would not be in the best interest of its citizens, and, more importantly, would be a detriment to the county's already fragile environment. Please be assured that we will continue to closely monitor the progress in making a decision on this sensitive issue." Mayor Knight Mayor Knight requested Staff start quantifying and getting precise figures on some of the options discussed. Mayor Knight asked for City Council support designating Council Members Ferris and Gale, and Sedgwick County Chairman, Tom Winters, to work with the City Manager and Staff in developing a Request for Proposal (RFP) and to participate in reviewing and recommending to the City Council specific numbers. Mayor Knight said he would like the City to get bids and take advantage of the competitive character so the Council can start knowing precisely what is being talked about. Additionally, Mayor Knight suggested that when the City Council has a workshop on solid waste, the Sedgwick County Commission should be involved as an integral part of the decision making and should be invited to be in attendance at the workshop, be seated with the City Council, and receive the same information at the same time as the City Council. Council Member Ferris Council Member Ferris suggested the rural Mayors be invited to the workshop as well. Council Member Kamen momentarily absent. Wayne Youngers Wayne Youngers, responding to a question, said there is no risk- free solution. Evaluation showed the least risk was where landfills were furthest above and away from groundwater. Motion -- Knight moved that Staff be authorized to develop a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the operation of a transfer station, including the transportation to and disposal of approved waste to a landfill; Staff, Council Members Ferris and Gale, County Commissioner Winters and others will look at this far and wide; and the Sedgwick County Commission and other Mayors in Sedgwick County be invited to -- carried participate in the Workshop Session next week. Motion carried 6 to 0. (Rogers absent) GILBERT/MOSLEY GILBERT/MOSLEY Council Member Kamen declared a conflict of interest and left the Bench. Chris Cherches City Manager reviewed the Item. A) SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT BOUNDARY AMENDMENT. Agenda Report No. 96-496. The City approved a Settlement Agreement with KDHE on March 26, 1991, under which the City undertook responsibility for the investigation and clean-up of the Gilbert & Mosley Site. At that time it was anticipated that the boundaries for the Site might change after the investigation was completed. The Final Corrective Action Decision (CAD) identifies the new boundaries for the Site. These boundaries include additional areas identified subsequent to the CAD. The CAD requires the Gilbert & Mosley site boundaries to be amended to reflect areas of groundwater contamination that were found to exist outside of the current site boundaries. This expansion will allow the remediation of those areas to be coordinated with the rest of the Site. In addition, the boundary amendment will allow the City to issue Certificates of Release to property owners in the new areas. B) WATER WELL CODE AMENDMENT. Agenda Report No. 96-497. The Final Corrective Action Decision (CAD) for the Gilbert and Mosley Site set forth the interim remedial groundwater actions selected for the site. The City is required to establish institutional controls within new boundaries under the alternative selected. That alternative allows the City to use alternate clean-up levels (ACLs) in the remediation process. The CAD requires the City to consider the adoption of an ordinance to prohibit the connection of newly constructed private water wells for private or public drinking water purposes. This type of regulation is considered as an "institutional control" by KDHE. The proposed ordinance amends the Water Well Code in Chapter 7.30. It defines a "contaminated area" to include areas designated by EPA or KDHE (this would currently include both Gilbert & Mosley and NIC). The amendment prohibits the construction and use of new personal water wells in a contaminated area. In addition, it allows the Health Officer to requires the cessation of use of existing water wells for personal use when the well is 1) in a contaminated area, 2) public water is available, and 3) the cessation of use is in the best interest of public health, safety, and welfare. ("Personal use" of well water is defined under the existing Code to include drinking, cooking, bathing, and sewage disposal.) The existing inspection system would be used for water wells in contaminated areas. No direct cost to the City is anticipated by this amendment. C) CONTRACT AMENDMENT. Agenda Report No. 96-496. Camp Dresser & McKee, Inc. (CDM) is continuing to provide professional environmental engineering services for the Gilbert-Mosley groundwater contamination site. To date, the remedial investigation, feasibility study, and preliminary design have been completed. The seventh amendment to the contract will designate CDM to 1) continue work on the intermediate and final designs; and 2) implement the remediation designs on two of the six plumes (plumes C and D). The cost for the amendment including construction and start-up operations is $4,625,802. These costs will be paid with funding from the Tax Increment Finance (TIF) District subject to future reimbursement from those parties responsible for the contamination. The cost of the amendment is budgeted for in the 1996 and 1997 revised TIF budgets. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Motion -- Cather moved that the Agreement Amendment and Contract amendment be approved and the Mayor be authorized to sign; and the ordinance amending the Water Well Code -- carried be placed on first reading. Motion carried 5 to 0. (Kamen, Rogers; absent) ORDINANCE An Ordinance pertaining to water wells, amending Section 7.30.010, creating Section 7.30.105, and repealing the original of Section 7.30.010 of the Code of the City of Wichita, introduced and under the rules laid over. RECESS The City Council recessed at 10:40 a.m. and reconvened at 10:53 a.m. Council Member Kamen present. MTA - SAM FACILITY METROPOLITAN TRANSIT AUTHORITY (MTA) MAINTENANCE/STORAGE/ADMINISTRATION FACILITY. Chris Cherches City Manager reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 96-499. On August 15, 1995, the City Council passed a motion to increase the local funding needed to support land purchase, design, and construction costs for MTA's new storage/administration/maintenance facility. the motion increased local share to $1,500,000 from the previously approved $1,210,000. This represents the 20% local match to federal funds of $6,000,000 which are currently secured under a federal grant. As discussed during that meeting, the architect's report noted project cost increases to the original budget. Those increases were attributed to increase land costs and additional cost for the indoor bus storage area. A formal resolution is needed from the City council to represent the motion passed to increase the local share commitment for the project. This resolution would amend the previous Resolution No. 93-181, Section 1, which targeted $1,210,000 in local funds for the project. The City is required to provide a 20% local match for the project. The previously approved amount of $1,210,000 would be increased by $290,000 for a total match of $1,500,000. Federal participation amounts to $6,000,000. Federal funds are currently secured under a federal grant. Motion passed by the Council was to approve local funding from Debt Service Fund, pay-as-go. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight inquired if anyone wished to be heard and no one appeared. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight stated that he would not support this because the City has not passed the 1997 Budget or a CIP. It is not known what the bus system is going to look like. There has been no update on what the MTA was directed to do. This will cost the cash committed by the City. Staff or someone ought to be looking at how the City may retrofit the existing facility. The annual operating costs have been estimated at $75,000 when the project is completed and "my experience leads me to believe that that is probably a low figure." Harry Clements MTA Board President, responding to questions, said it is estimated to take approximately $6 million retrofit the existing garage. It is thought the $6 million estimate was done by City staff. None of the figures are so precise that the difference between 35 or 40 foot buses were shown. The annual operating costs will probably just balance out. Mayor Knight Mayor Knight said the City Council instructed the MTA to accomplish certain things before the budget session in July and it is not seen where that is occurring. It is not viewed that the increased operational costs will be offset through savings. In all likelihood, the operational costs that are being identified are probably understated - even if unintended. Mayor Knight stated that he is worried about the City "hitting the wall" with transit dependent people in this community. Then these people will be told to come to the City Council, in mass, and probably try to convince the City Council to have a charter ordinance to expand beyond the two mills to support public transit. Mayor Knight asked that he be informed by memo as to what the MTA has done, in terms of the strategic analysis, as to how the bus system is going to be made to work - consistent with what has been directed by the City Council. Council Member Kamen Council Member Kamen said he had previously opposed the new transit center but with the knowledge of what it would cost to update the present facility, he was now in favor of constructing a new facility. Council Member Gale Council Member Gale said he had visited the current facility, had seen the needs of the facility, and had decided in favor of a new facility. Harry Clements MTA Board President, regarding the comparison of figures and estimates, said the committee has been involved with looking what other cities have done and how much their costs have been, in terms of similar facilities, and have relied on City Staff for estimates for the City's facilities. The Director said his figures are budgetary when he speaks of $6 million for renovation and $7.2 million for a new facility. Since the Federal Government is going to pick up a major part of the tab, in terms of the best thing for the City, the least cost for the City is to go with the Federal Grant. There are some absolute requirements for the existing facility if the MTA renovates the existing facility. Chris Cherches City Manager said, with expansion of the fleet area, the current MTA facility could be used for the CMF for public works. There would be no inclination to sell the property because the total Public Works facility is in the immediate area. Council Member Cole Council Member Cole spoke in support of a new facility based on information the Council has been given over the past three years and time she has spent at the facility. Council Member Cole said she keeps asking for serious consideration for building facilities under the Kellogg flyover and would recommend the same for the MTA facility. It is close to the transit station and is land owned by the City. Council Member Ferris left the Bench. Motion -- carried Cather moved that the Resolution be adopted. Motion carried 4 to 1.

NE URBAN AREA NORTHEAST URBAN GROWTH/SERVICE AREA EXPANSION. David Warren Director of Water and Sewer reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 96-500. In 1991, the City employed Black & Veatch and George Butler Associates to develop a sewer system master plan for Wichita. The plan was completed and presented to the City in May, 1992. The future service area of that plan coincided with the comprehensive development plan. City Council Policy #32 prescribes a future urban growth/service area for extension of water utility services outside the corporate limits of the City. Since the master plan was completed, the areas in the northwest and northeast portions of the metropolitan area have grown beyond what the master plan envisioned. The rapid development in the northeast area is attributable in large part to the improvement in transportation brought on by the completion of the K-96 By-pass. City staff have been approached by real estate developers who are involved in building developments in the expanding northeast area wishing to receive water utility services from the City. Because this area is not currently part of the approved "urban growth/service area", staff has not been able to respond to this request. The area in question lies immediately to the north of the Four Mile Creek sewer service area which is served by facilities owned and operated by Sedgwick County. As part of the City's efforts to relieve surcharging problems in the existing sewer service area in the eastern parts of the City, the City is nearing completion of engineering evaluations that will be the basis for engineering designs of pipeline and other sewer improvements. The City's existing eastern sewer service area would receive sewer flows from the expanded sewer service area, if such an expansion is approved. Therefore, it is prudent for the City to make a decision now about including the expanded area in such a design or the opportunity to economically and/or practically serve this area may be lost. City staff, County staff, and the City's engineers have discussed sewer service for the area in question and all believe that the most economical means of serving this area will be by master planning a gravity sewer system that is then pumped to the City's system west of Webb Road. Staff and the City's engineers modeled the impact of flows from this expanded sewer service area on the City's plans to improve downstream sewer interceptors and collectors. The results of that evaluation indicate an impact of about 3.4 MGD of additional sewage assuming a mix of residential/commercial development at urban density in this area. This would increase the City's proposed interceptor improvement program by an estimated $800,000. The annual debt service on that amount is about $75,000 (assuming 20 year utility revenue bonds @ 7%). The impact of that amount of additional debt service on rates is considered negligible (less than 1%). The City's sewer CIP currently anticipates an annual expenditure of $4.5 million or more per year on sewer interceptor improvements. Adding an additional $800,000 in 1997 will have a negligible impact on sewer rates. The addition of this service area will generate an estimated 11,000 new customer accounts (assuming 300 gpd/acc't) to spread the cost of existing treatment and other backbone sewer facilities over. It is estimated this customer base addition will generate $1.8 million (11,000 accts X $14/acct/month X 12 months) annually. City Council Policy #32 identifies the "Urban Growth/Service Area" for the City. The City Council reserved the power to change that boundary. Council Member Ferris present.

INMATE LABOR PROGRAM COOPERATIVE INMATE LABOR PROGRAM. Chris Cherches City Manager reviewed the Item. Agenda Report No. 96-502. The City of Wichita, like most larger communities, is faced with many challenges and opportunities. One major challenge is to meet its responsibilities in maintaining its infrastructure and public-owned properties and facilities, during a time of spending priorities for public safety and constraints on future financial resources. As the City grows and improves its quality of life features, more demands are being placed on City forces with the addition of parks and open spaces, public building services/grounds, and numerous other "housekeeping" functions. Because of the focused priorities of public safety and others, available resources to allocate to these day-to-day workloads have been limited. The proposal to utilize inmate labor will be beneficial to the City in helping address specific projects and services that require attention. The proposed Cooperative Inmate Program between the Kansas Department of Corrections and the City will provide community service through the provision of inmate labor. Under the program, the City will be able to assign and utilize inmate labor for specific public projects. Under the proposed guidelines, such labor will not be used to: 1. Replace already budgeted programs that would reduce the public commitment to such services/activities; or 2. Compete with contracted work or used to reduce the City's labor force. In addition, this program would not be used for projects which may be unreasonably dangerous or present an inherent risk to life or health of the proposed laborers. Some of the projects considered for this program would include, but not be limited to: Development of park land and park equipment and facilities (i.e. So. Lakes Park, etc.) Rehabilitation of park facilities, constructing boating docks Graffiti and paint removal Cleaning and clearing of brush, debris at selected sites Watering of plant materials on public rights of way Mowing of open spaces, such as floodways, drainage ditches, etc. Cemetery maintenance Public buildings repair/painting and maintenance, including neighborhood centers City-owned housing rehab and repairs Pickup/control of litter on public right- of-ways and public areas Fencing repairs and bridge erosion projects Vandalism repairs These and other projects are examples of how such a labor pool might be utilized to enhance the work activities of the City. The proposed cooperative work program would be with the Winfield Correctional Facility (WCF), a minimum security facility located within the City of Winfield, Kansas. Under the program, the prison would supply inmate labor for specific jobs and/or time frames. The City would be able to utilize this labor by entering into an agreement with the Department of Corrections which would outline the responsibilities of both parties: the Winfield Correctional Facility and the City of Wichita. The agreement would specify that the City would be required to provide supervision and transportation to and from Winfield. The WCF would provide food and medical care for the inmate labor. WCF would also provide necessary training for all City supervision assigned to this project. The program, if approved, would appear to be a "win-win" program for the City. It would allow many of the pending work programs to be accomplished in a timely manner, additional improvements to public property along with deferred maintenance to be addressed, various "housekeeping" functions to be undertaken, and completion of projects not possible under the current budget or departmental staffing. To the WCF it would allow inmate labor to be utilized for community service that would benefit the Wichita community, while earning incentive pay. Inmates selected for the program would be minimum security individuals who have good behavior records at the WCF. The Department of Corrections has utilized inmate labor for many projects throughout the State with little problems or risks. An agreement would be negotiated with the Kansas Department of Corrections which would govern the terms and conditions of the cooperative work program. The City would be responsible for supervision and transportation. These costs would be incurred by separate appropriation within the City's budget. Some of the costs would be expected to be absorbed by participating departments by the utilization of existing supervisory personnel.

Agenda Report No. 96-509. The MIS Strategic Planning Study Report recommends that the City of Wichita replace existing terminals with PCs in addition to moving toward "open" systems which utilize standard protocols such as TCP/IP and WindowsNT. The network has reached its saturation point and can accept no additional traffic. The increased load has been due to the proliferation of PCs and GIS applications on the network. Digital Equipment Corporation recommended an equipment configuration to replace the existing network backbone with fiber optic cable that will meet the City's current needs as well as provide for future growth. The network must be upgraded before any future systems can be implemented. Digital Network Services will install a 12-strand, 100 megabit fiber optic backbone in City Hall to replace the existing 10 megabit cable. Intelligent hubs will be installed on alternating floors in order to reduce equipment and fiber costs. This configuration will also allow systems requiring high bandwidth to connect directly to the fiber to take advantage of the full 100 megabit capacity while at the same time segmenting their network traffic from other systems. Network hardware costing approximately $207,000 will be bid separately. Installation will be performed by Digital Network Services to assure the networking equipment and fiber backbone is installed and maintained properly. The bid of $44,724 will be paid from the Data Center Fund.

On July 12, 1994, the City of Wichita and AMPCO System Parking (AMPCO) entered into a contract for management of the State Office Building Parking Garage and various City-owned surface lots. The contract could be extended with an increase in fees for two-one year terms from August 1, 1995, upon notice by AMPCO and provision of certain reports. This contract has been extended several times by Council action with no fee increase to allow AMPCO to provide required reports and later to allow the City Hall Parking Complex to begin operation with the intention of seeking management for all City-owned parking facilities under one contract. The current extension to the parking management contract will expire June 30, 1996. Staff is in the process of preparing the Request for Proposals for overall parking management but bids will not be received prior to the expiration date. AMPCO has agreed to extend the parking contract an additional three months but at the increased fee rate called for in the contract to allow for the bid process to be completed and a management company to be selected. The terms of the contract call for increased monthly fees for the State Office Garage from $6,671 to $7,355 in the second year of the contract. As mentioned, to date no increase has been granted as part of any of the extensions. Per the contract, revenues from other City lots is split 70/30 between the City and AMPCO.

(Rogers absent) PROPERTY DISPOSITION SALE OF CITY-OWNED PARCEL AT THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF KELLOGG AND HOOVER. (District V) Agenda Report No. 96-514. As part of the Kellogg/Dugan Improvement Project, the City acquired the property located at 5624 W. Kellogg and legally described as Lot 1 of the Reproco First Addition to Wichita, Sedgwick County, Kansas. The vacant parcel is located at the Northwest corner of Hoover and Kellogg. When the property was acquired in 1993, it consisted of 47,993 square feet and was improved with a gas station/convenience store. The property was purchased for the appraised value of $1,007,000 or approximately $21.00 per square foot. The City demolished the structures and has taken the necessary right-of-way for the freeway project leaving approximately 36,500 square feet of land for redevelopment purposes. The lot is zoned C-Commercial. The purchaser or their assigns propose to combine this parcel with other parcels to provide a site suitable for development of up to 120,000 square feet by a furniture retailer. The purchaser has offered to pay $7.00 per square foot for the site. The site was appraised in its current condition on May 23, 1996 by the Martens Company for the City. This appraisal valued the site at $7.00 per square foot. While the original acquisition appraisal did not value the land separately, the City also bought property at the Southwest corner of Hoover and Kellogg as part of the same project. The appraisal for that site valued the land at $6.50 per square foot. The City has also recently bought three tracts at Tyler Road and Kellogg for $5.50 to $6.00 per square foot. Based on a 36,500 square foot site (the exact size is to be determined by survey), gross sales proceeds will be $255,500. Closing and survey costs will be shared 50% by buyer and 50% by seller. In addition, the City will be responsible for a 6% real estate commission. Putting this vacant parcel back on the property tax rolls at the purchase price would provide approximately $7,300 of general property taxes, with the City's share being approximately $2,000. The size and cost of the proposed expansion are not yet known. Motion -- Knight moved that the budget and the Contract be approved; and the Mayor be -- carried authorized to sign the necessary documents. PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS ACQUISITION OF 54.96 ACRES AT 7344 S. HILLSIDE. Agenda Report No. 96-515. The Department of Parks and Recreation has identified 54.96 acres of partially wooded land near the confluence of the Arkansas River and the Wichita/Valley Center Flood Control Project. This parcel is immediately west of 63.1 acres which the City purchased in April 1995. The City owns another 40 acres which is adjacent and northeast of the property across 71st Street South. These parcels are adjacent to woodlands on publicly owned property along the river. The combination of these parcels will result in a 250+ acre assemblage adjacent to the Big Arkansas River both inside and outside the flood control levy of which approximately half will be woodlands. The proposed acquisition is located in the area that has been designated in both the current Comprehensive Plan for Parks and Public Open Space and the prior, adopted Comprehensive Plan as a "regional riverside" park. The property is currently utilized as farmland and is owned by Felix Cornelsen. The property was appraised at $93,000 ($1,692 per acre). This was offered to the property owner and he accepted the offer. The property is currently being farmed and the agreement will allow the farmer to harvest his 1996 crop without interference. If the property is not needed for park purposes in 1997, staff will attempt to release it for agricultural purposes. A budget of $100,000 is requested. This includes $93,000 for the acquisition, $2,000 for closing costs, and $5,000 for the demolition of several vacant buildings on the property. Funding for this acquisition is provided in the Park Department's CIP under Project Number P-93, Land Acquisition.

(District VI) Agenda Report No. 96-516. On July 6, 1993, the City Council approved the acquisition of a vacant site located south of Waterman Street, north and under raised US 54 (Kellogg), east of the central rail corridor and west of Mosely and the existing warehouses. This acquisition was consummated on July 13, 1993. Subsequent to the closing, it was discovered that the deed as recorded did not include the entire site negotiated for. The seller has agreed to deed the remainder to the City for an amount equal to the taxes he has paid on the parcel since closing and his legal costs. The seller paid $437.35 of taxes on the parcel in 1994 and prorated taxes for 1993 totaled $186.82. Taxes for 1995 have not been paid pending the proposed transfer. Legal expenses have totaled $1,202.50. A budget of $2,250 is requested to cover these costs as well as the cost of closing. Funding is available from the Property Management Operations fund. Motion -- Knight moved that the budget be approved; the Real Estate Purchase Contract be approved; and the Mayor be authorized to sign the necessary documents. Motion -- carried carried 6 to 0. (Rogers absent) APPRAISER'S AWARD PAYMENT OF APPRAISER'S AWARD. Agenda Report No. 96-517. In December, 1994, the City filed eminent domain proceedings to acquire several tracts of land necessary for construction of the Ice Rink on land near Maple and Sycamore and across from Lawrence-Dumont Stadium. The owner of two of those tracts, which were awarded damages in the amount of $29,000 by the court-appointed appraisers, filed an appeal and challenged the City's taking on the basis that a mistake in the legal description in the City's petition voided the eminent domain proceeding. The appeal and legal challenge were referred to the City's outside counsel for eminent domain matters and an attempt was made to correct the description by redoing the eminent domain proceeding for these two tracts. This reappraisal was by a new panel of court-appointed appraisers; however, two of the three were the same as in the first proceeding. These appraisers valued the two tracts at $132,225. The court-appointed appraisers in the second proceeding have made errors in their appraisal of these two tracts which have resulted in an excessive award. The basis for their errors is confusion over the date of taking and the fact that the City, assuming that the first proceeding was valid, paid the original award into Court and took possession of the property in early 1995 and began work on the Ice Rink Project. If the City wishes to acquire these two tracts it has two options: The first is to pay the award into court on or before June 21, 1996, together with the appraisers' fees and court costs of $4,566.50. The City could appeal and attempt to have the award reduced by showing that the appraisers made mistakes in their evaluation of the property. The second would be to abandon the eminent domain proceeding. This would obligate the City to pay the appraisers' fees and costs of $4,566.50 and the reasonable expenses of the landowner (including reasonable attorney fees). These costs are part of the Ice Rink Project and will be paid from project funds. To deal with the errors made by the court- appointed appraisers in their valuation, the Law Department and the City's outside legal counsel for eminent domain matters, recommend that the City abandon the condemnation proceeding. Motion -- Knight moved that the eminent domain proceeding be abandoned and payment of the appraisers' fees and court costs in the amount of $4,566.50 and the reasonable expenses of the landowner as determined by the court be authorized.

NE BRANCH LIBRARY RESOLUTION PERTAINING TO NORTHEAST NEIGHBORHOOD BRANCH LIBRARY FACILITY. Agenda Report No. 96-519. On May 23, 1995, the City Council designated the site between the Police Substation and Bank IV Branch Bank (3051 East 21st Street North) for the new Northeast Library. The Council also directed that the library be constructed larger than the previous facility. To help offset the cost of the larger building, the City Council took action on August 15, 1995, as part of the 1996 City budget, to approve an additional $250,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDGB) funds for the Northeast Branch Library. On November 21, 1995, the City Council awarded the construction bid to Breckco Construction Co. Breckco Construction Co. was issued an official notice to proceed on January 16, 1996. Construction is approximately 40 percent complete with substantial completion scheduled for October 1996. The new facility will be approximately 1,500 square feet larger than the old branch library of 3,500 square feet which was located in the Madison Square Shopping Center. Furniture and equipment that has been removed and stored from the old branch library will not be sufficient to furnish the new facility. To allow the library to move into the new facility at substantial completion will require additional furniture and equipment. The total budget for the Northeast Branch Library is $740,000. This consists of $475,000 in CDBG funds (increased from $225,000) and $225,000 in General Obligation Bonds (CIP #PB-9330). An additional $40,000 in General Obligation Bonds would be allocated if the recommended action is taken. This would bring the total in General Obligation Bonds allocated to $265,000 for this project.
