We look forward to our continuing relationship and moving together as a team." B. City Manager Herrera asked the Assistant City Manager to give a review of the problem we are currently experiencing on Farrington Boulevard. Assistant City Manager John Joerns reported some necessary repairs to the City's sanitary sewer system and to Farrington Boulevard. Mr. Joerns reported a blocked sewer that has a structural problem. It is the sewer lateral that serves the houses on the northside of Rustic Rock between Big .Island Slough and Farrington Boulevard. Mr. Joerns submitted pictures to Council to assist in the explanation of the situation. Mr. Joerns explained the necessity of authorizing these repairs as an emergency and suspending our regular bid procedures. We will get quotes so we know that we are staying competitive. Mr. Joerns also reported a storm sewer was laid on top of the sanitary sewer without any distance between them. In fact, it cuts through the top of the sanitary sewer. This has allowed storm water to pour directly into the sanitary sewer. He stated, "We will take care of this problem at the same time, but we have not received the quotes on this part of the repairs. We wanted to make Council aware of these situations. We will proceed with repairs as soon as we have a correctly identified plan of action. We will come back to Council for the declaration Minutes Regular Meeting La Porte City Council May 9, 1994, Page 7 • of emergency and authorizing the payment of funds to the contractor."

Letter from San Jaclnto College The City of La Porte was originally contacted by San Jadnto College regarding a possible median break along LueNa Blvd. This median break was to be installed in an area Est north of the new Health and Sciences Building at the juncture of a new on campus roadway serving the northern parking lots. As was originally proposed, the estimated cost of the project was to be $ 25,000 and the request of the College was for the City to partldpate in the amount of $10,000. The Staff reviewed the proposal and felt that the City of La Porte Could save some money by designing and bidding the project in-house. In using this method, the City also felt that a savings could be realized by the College as well. San Jadnto College agreed to that proposal and offered to fund $10,450, toward the total project cost(see attached letter). The project was designed by the City Engineer and included several design improvements over the original plans. The project was bid on April 18, 1994, and the low bid of Frost Constructors, Inc., was received in the amount of $ 13,497.05. As this project wiU improve access to the San Jadnto College Campus and will Improve the traffic safety along Luella Blvd., the Staff recommends that $ 3,722, be allocated from the General Capital Improvements Fund Contingency Acx:ount to this project. The Staff also recommends that a contract be awarded to Frost Constructors, Inc. in the amount of $ 13,497.05 plus 596 contingency of $ 674.95 for a total of $ 14,172.00. Action Required by Council: Approve an ordinance authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Frost Constructors, Inc. in the amount of $ 13, 497.05, plus a contingency of $ 674.95 for a total of $ 14,172.00, and further authorize the transfer of $ 3,722 from the General Capital Improvement Contingency Account to fund the City portion of this project. va a y o un s: _ General Fund _ Water/Wastewater ~C Capital Improvement _ General Revenue Sharing _ Other Account Number: 015-t~iQ-~iQ~Q„1 Funds Available: ~_YES NO ! ~ RE EtVE PL~N~IING ~ $at'1 ~aG1Ci~~ G01~@g@ DIStt'1G# aE9a Fairmont paricw.y, Suite 900.

Powell Department: Police X Report Resolution Ordinance Exhibits: Purchasing memo. SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION Police patrol unit number 53-54 was damaged due to a fire which started under the dashboard. One estimator, from Timmer's Chevrolet, did provide the City with an estimate of "at least $7,000 for the cost of the wiring harness alone. The firewall, dashboard, radio, electrical equipment and etc. will have to be replaced also. He advised he would consider it a total loss. The Vehicle Replacement Fund has $4,461 applied toward a replacement of this vehicle. Knapp Chevrolet was awarded the City contract to provide police vehicles. They indicated they have a vehicle which exceeds our specifications. After painting and adding push bumpers and afire extinguisher the cost would be $15,320 (The vehicles meeting our specifications were $13,429 each). Joe Camp Ford has a police package vehicle on their lot, which after painting and adding push bumpers and a fire extinguisher would be $14,063.25. There would not be a need to rebid this item as it would fall under the exemptions of the purchasing status. The design of the Motor Pool Fund allows us to replace the damaged unit without causing a financial burden on the fund. Disposing of the burned vehicle by salvage by sealed bid we will recover more funds than if we hold the vehicle for auction. The money from the salvage will be returned to Vehicle Motor Pool for replacement of this vehicle. Recommend: Purchase of replacement vehicle from Joe Camp Ford for the amount $14,063.25. Cost to be taken from the Motor Pool Fund.
