wM clearly be the solution to it. Councilman Garofalo questioned whether there is any piece of
law available which has successfully distinguished between the Good Humor Man and

The City Clerk announced that a late communication from the Economic Development
Department had been distributed at this meeting relative to this item titled City of Huntington

The Economic Development Director reported that for the first time in many years there had
been very active participation. He cited the example of representatives of the Dayle McIntosh
Center being able to address the combined board regarding their operational needs and also
the needs of those residents for public improvements to help them get around the community.
He stated that previously, this organization would have made a presentation only to the public
service board which may have responded that public improvements were not in the public
service board's area.
Councilman Harman requested staff to comment on concerns of the nonprofit organizations
relative to their belief that city programs would be funded at the expense of their projects.
Councilman Harman inquired if a consultant or other avenue could be explored to determine if,
for example, the city is the best way to fund programs such as Project Self -Sufficiency.
]PTA-1
12/16/96 - City Council/Redevelopment Agency Minutes - Page 17
The Economic Development Director reported that Project Self -Sufficiency does do some
outside fund-raising. The Economic Development Director stated a report could be made on
how much effort will be required on a more detailed analysis as to who is more cost effective
as to providing the service. Councilman Harman requested such a report, particularly relative
to Project Self -Sufficiency.
Councilman Harman stated that he would like the city to consider using a strategy used by
charitable organizations in which they adopt a program, put seed money into it, get it running,
and then gradually step aside and bring in a private organization or another nonprofit to run it.
Councilman Harman stated that he believed the Oak View Library and the community center
should continue to be funded.
Councilman Harman questioned whether there is an anti -poverty strategy. Ms. Runzel stated
that there is such a plan_
Mayor Bauer referred to the Needs Assessment done by the Volunteers of America and stated
that perhaps staff could review this assessment. The Mayor stressed that those
representatives of organizations who do not have the required sophistication or familiarity with
the application process for funding be assisted in every way possible by the Economic
Development Department staff so that they will have an opportunity for program funding
participation.
A motion was made by Garofalo, second Dettloff, to adopt the City Council general guidelines
and priorities as outlined in Attachment No. 1 to the Request for Council Action dated

Councilman Harman questioned how the consultant could make cost projections when the use
of the land is still unknown. The Public Works Director reported on this issue. Further

proposed agreement, including why a competitive bid was not considered. The Public Works
Director reported on the reasons, including showing consistency with the Water Master Plan
which the Boyle Engineering Corporation had recently performed.

scope and selection of the consultant firm.

also reported on provisions of the Holly-Seacliff Development Agreement.
At Councilman Garofalo's request, the City Attorney stated she agreed with the City
Administrator that the city must use its best efforts as set forth in the Holly-Seacliff
Development Agreement. The City Attorney reported further on the issue.
Councilman Garofalo stated reasons why he believed the Boyle Engineering Corporation is not
the best firm to employ as they are related to issues in the city and he believes another
consultant should be used which would not have a potential conflict of interest as does the
Boyle Engineering Corporation.
Councilman Harman stated the areas in which he believes the Boyle Engineering
Corporation's costs are high and cited examples of charges in the proposed agreement.

need to resolve this issue. She stated that she is comfortable with approving the
recommended action; however, she would like to hear any recommendations that the Council
may have.
The Public Works Director responded to Councilman Sullivan regarding Proposition No. 218 as
it would affect a city-wide assessment; however, he stated a city-wide assessment has not
been proposed. Further discussion was held between Council and the Public Works Director.
The City Administrator stated that a city-wide assessment district was never contemplated at
the time of the development agreement process.
William Holman, PLC Land Company representative, at the request of Councilman Garofalo,
addressed Council regarding the issue. He presented background information on the matter,
including the study of Willdan and Associates. Mr. Holman stated that $30,000,000 of
infrastructure are left to complete and $16,000,000 of infrastructure has been completed. He
stated that PLC Land Company has an obligation to put in infrastructure improvements and
that the city has a financial obligation. He reviewed the previous attempt at a reimbursement
district and an attempt at a fee schedule. Mr. Holman recommended a Council committee be
12/16/96 - City Council/Redevelopment Agency Minutes - Page 19
formed to study the issue as PLC Land Company has already paid for two reports in the past.
He informed Council that he believed $70,000 is a high cost for such a study.
A motion was made by Garofalo, second Dettloff, to: 1. approve and authorize the Mayor and
City Clerk to execute the Professional Services Contract between the City and Boyle
Engineering Corporation for a Holly-Seacliff Cost Reimbursement Study for Excess Capacity in
the amount of $70,000 in payment for the preparation of a Cost Reimbursement Analysis
relating to the Holly-Seadiff Development Agreement and 2, approve a total appropriation of
$77,000 from undesignated General Funds which includes $70,000 to fund said Agreement
with Boyle Engineering Corporation and $7,000 for anticipated change orders, with the
condition that a Council Committee consisting of Councilmembers Harman, Dettloff, and
Garofalo be temporarily assigned to work with staff to keep Council abreast of the cost and
nature of the study.
The City Administrator stated what he believed is to be the scope of the study and the
alternative methods for raising the money that he believes may be explored.
The Public Works Director stated that Boyle Engineering will be working with a sub -consultant
who has expertise in assessment and reimbursement districts.
The City Attorney reported on the manner in which the city has implemented reimbursement
agreements historically and what she perceives the issue to be.
The Assistant City Administrator reported, in response to Councilman Harman, on how he
believes the Specific Plan will apply as to how the consultant could project cost when it is not
known how the property will be developed. He reported further to Council on the subject,
including the need for an independent source to verify the data based upon the Specific Plan.
He stated an amendment to the Specific Plan would be needed if the densities were changed.
The motion made by Garofalo, second Dettloff, carried by the following roll call vote:
AYES: Harman, Julien, Dettloff, Sullivan, Green, Garofalo
NOES: Bauer
ABSENT: None
