BEARDSLEY, PE, �IRrEZ OR OF PUBLIC WRKS SUBJECT: RECONSIDER RECONSTRUCTION OPTIONS FOR BRUSH DRIVE Statement of Issue,Funding Source,Recommended Action,Alternative Action(s),Analysis,Environmental Status,Attachments) Statement of Issue: Subsequent to comments from Brush Drive residents Ms. Teresa Chaque and Mr. Chris Varga, under Public Communications on May 1, 2006, the City Council voted 6-1 (Councilman Hansen opposed) to reconsider the street reconstruction project awarded for Brush Drive, between Waite Lane and Newland Street, at the May 15, 2006 City Council meeting. Funding Source: Funding already has been appropriated to allow for any selected alternative. Recommended Action: Motion to: Proceed with the contract awarded by Council on February 6, 2006, to Nobest , Inc., to construct infrastructure repairs on Brush Drive (Public Works Project MSC-430), specifically redirecting, pursuant to the Council action of April 17, 2006, that the entire street's curbs and gutters shall be subject to replacement and residents will be allowed to give input on selection of trees (not shrubs) to be planted as replacements for trees removed. Alternative Action(s): Provide alternative direction to staff which could include (1) negotiating a contract change order to delete Brush Drive in its entirety from the contract awarded on February 6, 2006; or (2), pursuant to the Council's action of February 6, 2006, negotiating a contract change order to substitute the Brush Drive project area with the next most feasible, highest priority street on the petition list after reserving sufficient project funds for Brush Drive, between Waite Lane and Newland Street, to (a) effect satisfactory repairs to the sidewalks to mitigate immediate safety issues, (b) perform spot repairs to curbs and gutters where necessary for safety concerns, and (c) protect trees as much as feasible, to accomplish the necessary safety repairs without leaving any tree in an unsafe condition. As a result of this process, Brush Drive residents must re-initiate the petition process for future requested repairs, losing their current standing on the petition list. 1 REQUEST FOR Error! Reference source not found. ACTION MEETING DATE: 6/5/2006 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PW 06-030 Analysis: Council Action Chronology: This item first came to Council on February 6, 2006, at which time the Director of Public Works recommended that a residential street reconstruction project be awarded to Nobest, Inc. for the low bid amount of$3,600,058.45, for 25 residential streets on the Residential Street Petition List. In an effort to work with the residents who had raised objections to the project subsequent to the bid opening, the Director of Public Works offered an alternative recommendation in a January 30, 2006 memorandum, that Brush Drive, between Waite Lane and Newland Street, be removed from the project list but that project funds be set aside for satisfactory repairs to the sidewalks along the Brush Drive project area, thus mitigating any immediate safety issues. In this approach, spot repairs to curbs and gutters would be included where necessary for safety concerns and trees would be protected as much as feasible, to accomplish the necessary safety repairs without leaving any tree in an unsafe condition. After extensive discussion, Council concurred unanimously with the alternative recommendation for Brush Drive and directed staff accordingly, with the caveat added that Brush Drive residents would understand that they must re-initiate the petition process for any future requests for repairs, losing their current standing on the petition list. On April 17, 2006, Councilman Hansen presented an H-Item to reconsider the Brush Drive reconstruction issue. On that date, again after extensive discussion, Council voted 6-1 (Councilman Bohr opposed), redirecting staff to have the contractor Nobest, Inc. perform full repairs to Brush Drive's curbs and gutters and allowing residents to give input on selection of trees (not shrubs) to be planted as replacements for trees removed. On May 1, 2006, subsequent to Public Communications from Brush Drive residents Ms. Teresa Chaque and Mr. Chris Varga, and after a brief discussion, the City Council voted 6-1 (Councilman Hansen opposed) to reconsider the street reconstruction project awarded for Brush Drive at the May 15, 2006 City Council meeting. For the May 15, 2006 discussion, the staff recommended action will be to proceed with the originally-scoped, full project as stated in the "Recommended Action" above. The "Alternative Action(s)" above include less suitable alternatives that would not completely address the project. Staff still asserts that the reduced scope project described in the Director of Public Works' January 30, 2006 memorandum can be accomplished; however, as discussed extensively on February 6, 2006, areas of substandard drainage will persist where curbs and gutters are not reconstructed. Specific Resident Issues: Petitions. Ms. Chaque's and Mr. Varga's May 1, 2006 Public Communication remarks were primarily challenges to the validity, both in format and qualified signatures, of the original 1995 petition circulated by Mr. Robert Valesky. Staff continues to emphasize that, whatever the circumstances of the original petition, the process which was established in 1988 was intended to be an informal means for staff to (1) gauge the substantial interest of a neighborhood, some of whose residents had expressed a desire for their parkway trees to DADocuments and Settings\Greene)\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLKAD\060515-RCA-Brush Drive.doc -2- 5/4/2006 1:08 PM REQUEST FOR Error!

Once the list was created, the City had been served with written notice of conditions which may be potentially hazardous to pedestrians or motorists and became bound to a process for which there is no prudent way to remove itself except by completing the improvements. _Scope of Improvements. The residents speaking on May 1 asserted that staff charged with carrying out the project offered only an "all-or-nothing" approach to the project. If the street is to be reconstructed to accommodate proper drainage, our experience has been that, invariably, the entire street needs to be reconstructed. Certainly, where trees can be saved that will not cause problems later, that will be done. The newer Crape myrtle trees are in that category; however, after previous discussions, there may be a preference by the neighborhood to remove those trees and plant more substantial species selected from the City's Tree Management Plan list. Unique Solutions. The residents stated that staff has not pursued innovative solutions to similar problems experienced in other cities. Rubber sidewalk panels were offered as an example where some cities had used them for reconstructing raised sidewalks caused by tree roots and, thus, avoided tree removals. The Public Works staff is well aware of innovations in the industry and, in fact, has evaluated rubber sidewalks. Unfortunately, this experimental product has serious defects in practical application, which was fully explained in a July 22, 2002 memorandum to the City Council. Staff has decided against installing this product for those reasons. Environmental Status: Not Applicable. Public Works Commission Action: Not required.

Authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute a construction contract in substantially the same form as the attached sample contract. Alternative Action(s): Do not authorize award of this contract and direct staff on how to proceed. REQUEST FOR ACTION ' MEETING DATE: 2/6/2006 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER:PW 06-003 Analysis: The project will consist of the construction of street improvements on 25 residential streets from the Tree Petition List as shown on Attachment #1, List of Streets. Construction will include removal and replacement of the parkway trees, reconstruction of the sidewalk, curb, and gutter, and a new asphalt-wearing surface. The scope of work includes streets in order of receipt of the petition beginning with Brush Drive (#1). Two streets, Myrtle Drive (#3) and Normandy Lane (#21), required engineering design prior to soliciting bids and have been held back from the sequence until the design phase is completed. The engineer's estimate for this project was $3,730,000. Bids were opened publicly on December 8, 2005, and are listed in ascending order: Bidding 1. Nobest, Inc. $ 3,600,058.45 2. All American Asphalt $ 4,171,825.00 3. Palp, Inc. $ 4,201,687.66 4. Shawnan $ 4,797,858.14 5. EBS, Inc. $ 4,997,253.92 The award process was delayed temporarily while staff consulted with some residents and the City Attorney 'regarding work proposed on one of the streets in the contemplated contract (Brush Drive). Some of the residents on this street are objecting to the extent of the improvements staff determined necessary to complete the permanent repairs. In particular, they have objected to removing 29 mature street trees from the parkways along the street fronting the 50 homes in the project area. Staff prepared a January 30, 2006 memorandum to the Mayor and Council, summarizing the situation, outlining possible options to resolve the situation and presenting a recommendation that addresses the residents' concerns. If, upon Council's determination to accept the recommendation in the Staffs separate January 30, 2006 memorandum, a motion should be made to approve the Recommended Action above, as stated, with the additional direction to remove Brush Drive from the project list and direct staff to negotiate a change order with the contractor using project funds redirected to effect satisfactory repairs to the public property in the Brush Drive project area. The work shall be limited to (1) mitigating immediate sidewalk and parkway safety issues, (2) spot repairs to curbs and gutters where necessary for safety concerns and (3) protecting existing trees in place while accomplishing these repairs without leaving any tree in an unsafe condition. Staff recommends that the contract be awarded to Nobest, Inc., the lowest responsible bidder, for the scope of work detailed above. The City has had positive experience with this contractor's past performance on several projects of this type.

NOTICE TO PROCEED No work, services, material, or equipment shall be performed or furnished under this Agreement unless and until a Notice to Proceed has been given to CONTRACTOR by CITY. CITY does not warrant that the work will be available on the date the Notice to Proceed is issued. In the event of a delay in commencement of the work due to unavailability of the job site, for any reason, relief to CONTRACTOR shall be limited to a time extension equal to the delay due to such unavailability. 8. BONDS Only bonds issued by California admitted sureties will be accepted. CONTRACTOR shall, prior to its performance of this Agreement, furnish the following two (2) bonds approved by the City Attorney: One in the amount of one hundred percent (100%) of the contract price to guarantee the CONTRACTOR's faithful performance of the work, and one in the amount of one hundred percent of the contract price to guarantee payment of all claims for labor and materials furnished. In addition, CONTRACTOR shall submit to CITY a bond in the amount of one hundred percent(100%) of the final contract price, including all change orders, to warrant such performance for a period of one (1) year after CITY's acceptance thereof within ten (10) days of filing of the Notice of Completion. 9. WARRANTIES CONTRACTOR unconditionally guarantees all work done under this Agreement including, but not limited to, any workmanship, installation, fabrication, material or structural facilities constructed. CONTRACTOR, within ten (10) days after notice by CITY of any defect in the work, shall have the option to make appropriate repairs or replace agree/forms/city const/4-03 6 the defective item or items. Upon expiration of such ten (10) day period, CITY may then make appropriate repair or replacement at CONTRACTOR's risk and own cost and expense. 10. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR It is understood and agreed that CONTRACTOR is,'and shall be, acting at all times hereunder as an independent contractor and not an employee of CITY. CONTRACTOR shall secure at its own cost and expense, and be responsible for any and all payment of all taxes, social security, state disability insurance compensation, unemployment compensation and other payroll deductions for CONTRACTOR and its officers, agents and employees and all business licenses, if any, in connection with the PROJECT and/or the services performed hereunder. 11. LIQUIDATED DAMAGES/DELAYS It is agreed by the parties hereto that in case the total work called for hereunder is not in all parts and requirements finished or completed within the number of calendar days as set forth herein, damage will. be sustained by, CITY; and that it is, and would be, impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain and determine the actual damage which CITY would sustain in the event of and by reason of such delay. It is, therefore, agreed that CONTRACTOR will pay to CITY, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, the sum of Dollars ($ ) per day for each and every working day's delay in completing the work in excess of the number of working/calendar days set forth herein, which represents a reasonable endeavor by the parties hereto to estimate a fair compensation for the foreseeable damages CITY would sustain in the event of and by reason of such delay; and CONTRACTOR agrees to pay these damages herein provided, and agree/forms/city const/4-03 7 further agrees that CITY may deduct the amount thereof from any monies due or that may become due to CONTRACTOR hereunder. CONTRACTOR will be granted an extension of time and will not be assessed damages for any portion of the delay in the completion of the work due to unforeseeable causes beyond the control and without the fault or negligence of CONTRACTOR, including, but not limited to, acts of God or of the public. enemy, fire, floods, epidemics, quarantine restrictions, strikes,unsuitable weather, or delays of subcontractors due to such causes. CONTRACTOR shall, within fifteen (15) days from the beginning of any such delay (unless DPW shall grant a further period of time), notify DPW in writing of the cause of the delay and CITY shall extend the time for completing the work if; in its judgment, the findings of fact thereon justify the delay; and the decision of DPW shall be conclusive on the parties hereto. Should CONTRACTOR be delayed in the prosecution or completion of the work by the act, neglect or default of CITY, or should CONTRACTOR be delayed by waiting for materials required by this Agreement to be furnished by CITY, or by damage caused by fire or other casualty at the job site for which CONTRACTOR is not responsible, or by the combined action of the workers, in no way caused by or resulting from default or collusion on the part of CONTRACTOR, or in the event of a lockout by CITY, then the time herein fixed for the completion of the work shall be extended by the number of days CONTRACTOR has thus been delayed, but no allowance or extension shall be made unless a claim therefor is presented in writing to CITY within fifteen(15) days of the commencement of such delay. No claims for additional compensation or damages for delays, irrespective of the cause thereof, and including without limitation the furnishing of materials by CITY or agree/forms/city const/4-03 8 } delays by other contractors or subcontractors, will be allowed and an extension of time for completion shall be the sole remedy of CONTRACTOR. 12. DIFFERING SITE CONDITIONS A. Notice: CONTRACTOR shall promptly, and before such conditions are disturbed, notify DPW in writing of: (1) Subsurface or latent physical conditions at the job site differing materially from those indicated in this Agreement or the Contract Documents; or (2) Unknown physical conditions at the job site, of an unusual nature, differing materially from those .ordinarily encountered and generally recognized as inherent to work of the character to be performed under this Agreement. DPW shall promptly investigate the conditions and if it finds that such conditions do materially so differ and cause an increase or decrease in the time required for performance of any part of the work under this Agreement, whether or not changed as a result of such conditions, an equitable adjustment shall be made and the agreement modified in writing accordingly. B. Time Extension: No claim of CONTRACTOR under this Section shall be allowed unless CONTRACTOR has given the notice required hereunder provided, however, the time prescribed therefor may be extended by CITY. agree/forms/city const/4-03 9 1 t f 13. VARIATIONS IN ESTIMATED QUANTITIES The quantities listed in the bid schedule will not govern final payment. Payment to CONTRACTOR will be made only for the actual quantities of contract items used in construction of the PROJECT, in accordance with the plans and specifications. Upon completion of the PROJECT, if the actual quantities used are either more than or less than the quantities listed in the bid schedule, the bid price shall prevail subject to the provisions of this Section. DPW may, at its sole discretion, when warranted by the facts and circumstances, order an equitable adjustment, upwards or downwards, in payment to CONTRACTOR where the actual quantities used in'construction of the PROJECT are in variation to the quantities listed in the bid schedule. No claim by CONTRACTOR for an equitable adjustment in price or time for completion shall be allowed if asserted after final payment under this Agreement. If the quantity variation is such as to cause an increase in the time necessary for completion, DPW shall ascertain the facts and circumstances and make such adjustment for extending the completion date as in its sole judgment the findings warrant. 14.

Partial payments on the contract price shall not be considered as a acceptance of any part of the work. 15. WITHHELD CONTRACT FUNDS, SUBSTITUTION OF SECURITIES At the request and at the sole cost and expense of CONTRACTOR, who shall retain beneficial ownership and receive interest, if any thereon, CITY shall permit the substitution and deposit therewith of securities equivalent to the amount of any monies withheld by CITY to ensure performance under the terms of this Agreement. . 16.

The requirement for carrying the foregoing insurance coverages shall not derogate from the CONTRACTOR's defense, hold harmless and indemnification obligations as set forth under this Agreement.

Box 190 California 92648 Robert F. Beardsley, P.E. Department of Public Works Director (714) 536-5431 January 13, 2006 Ms. Theresa Chaque 8392 Brush Drive Huntington Beach, California 92647 Subject: Public Improvements - Brush Drive Dear Ms. Chaque: This letter is to conclude our determination, after several prior discussions with you, concerning the pending street improvements and city street tree replacement project on your street. This work has been budgeted, designed, and bid for construction and I am preparing to bring this matter to the City Council for contract award in February. You expressed a number of concerns about the validity of the 1995 Brush Drive petition process; whether the process was handled appropriately; whether the current residents are supportive of the project; and whether the project needs to be accomplished in the manner we have proposed. It is important to recognize that the petition process, in fact, is only a means by which the City is placed on notice by residents of,possible defects that need to be corrected and we have used this process to help us prioritize our limited funds available for this work. Regardless of the petition process, proper maintenance of the public right-of-way is our obligation and, therefore, it is our responsibility to proceed with corrective work, both as a responsibility to maintain the city infrastructure and to protect the city from liability exposure. We have provided notices to the residents regarding this project and, I understand, that you have also made direct contact with your neighbors. Clearly, there have been very few concerns expressed about this project and I have to conclude that the level of support of the neighborhood is at least equivalent to that of the original petition. Licensed civil engineers, licensed land surveyors and certified arborists all have examined the condition of the street and the street trees on Brush Drive and have determined that this project cannot be accomplished by selective replacement of damaged concrete and a limited number of trees. As my staff discussed with you and your neighbors at the pre-construction meeting on Theresa Chaque 1-23-06 8392 Brush Drive Huntington Beach CA 92647 Robert Beardsley Department of Public Works City of Huntington Beach ` 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Dear Mr. Beardsley, Attached is a copy of your letter I am responding to. The first point I would like to make is about the statement in the letter: "Clearly, there have been very few concerns expressed about the project and I have to conclude that the level of support of the neighborhood is at least equivalent to that of the original petition."This statement is false and the level of support against having the trees cut down is very substantial. Enclosed please find copies of all the signatures I have obtained for the "Tree Saving Petition". One signature counted from each residence totals 38 out of 50 lots, or 64%. Also enclosed is a copy of the 1995 "Tree Removal Petition" which has been highlighted to get some points across. Note that the last 2 pages on this petition, containing most of the signa- tures, have no petition statements at the top of the pages, as the first page does. This Fall I spoke with Robert Valeski, the person who circulated this 1995 petition, after he had returned from 4-5 months in Wisconsin. I found true what I had suspected all Summer from talking with the long time residents. Mr. Valeski stated to me during a phone conversation on 10-27-05 that he was unaware that ALL the trees would be taken out when he circulated the 1995 petition. He had circulated the petition under the guise of having sidewalks and gutters re-done only and did not inform the residents about every tree being taken out. Since the petition statement was not on the paper they were signing, the residents were unaware of what they were actual- ly signing. Of course they had no objections to getting new sidewalks and gutters, as was told to them verbally, by a trusted neighbor. But they did not know all the parameters involved. Many of the residents who signed the 1995 petition and now have signed the new Tree Saving Petition have substantiated this fact and are not happy about it. Some were at the community meeting on 10-27-05. From the 1995 petition I have found and have highlighted in the colors listed: 2 signers were renters (pink). 14 owners have reversed their decision by signing the new petition (green). 21 lots have changed owners (yellow). 2 remain to be contacted (orange): 6 valid signatures are left (unmarked). There are 50 lots affected by the project. 45 people signed the original petition. 2 of the (known) renters have to be disqualified leaving 43 signatures. To come up with what the level of support could have been in 1995, if the residents had known the facts, I've subtracted the 14 owners from the petition that have reversed their decision because they were mislead. That leaves 29 signatures, or 58%, at best. It would most likely be even less than 58% because so many owners from 1995 are gone and we don't know what their opinion would have been should they had known the truth about the trees. The 32, or 64%signatures on the Tree Saving Petition is substantial and definitely beats 58%. Anything over a majority usually rules in a democratic society. Furthermore, because 21 of the 1995 signees have sold their houses and are gone, their sig- natures now are no longer valid. By omitting the signatures of the 2 renters and the 14 who have signed the Tree Saving Petition, only 6 to 8 valid signatures are left on the old petition. On to my second point from the letter which reads in this sentence: "it is important to recog- nize that the petition process, in fact, is only a means by which the City is placed on notice by residents of possible defects that need to be corrected and we have used this process to help prioritize our limited funds available for work." Since the city was falsely placed on notice of possible defects on Brush Drive, then the notice needs to be dropped. The majority of the residents on Brush Drive feel that the small amount of defects that the street may have does not warrant cutting down all our trees. This street's sidewalks and gutters are in far better condition than most in the entire neighborhood. It is quite obvious. There isn't much here to trip on and sidewalk liability cases are far easier to be gotten on Bryant St., Lambert St. or many other streets in our tract. So if limited funds are to be prioritized, they would be best placed on another street that desperately needs it. Although it is conscientious of the city to honor petitions submitted by citizens, it is probably wise for someone to go out and visit the streets affected by the petitions and make an evaluation as to which streets actually are in better or worse shape, prior to taking action. We feel that the value of our trees far outweighs the value of perfect sidewalks and gutters. The citizens know that it is technically possible to repair the sidewalks and gutters without destroying the trees. We are extremely disappointed by the unwillingness to consider any alternatives or to work with the citizens by the city Public Works Department. I would like to submit the new Tree Saving Petitions to-the proper office. I was, and still am, unsure about when to submit them since the City Council had put the project on hold with the City Attorney, per the Nov. 21, 2005 City Council meeting, which I spoke at. Thank you for your time.

City Council Interoffice Communication G CX%, To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members o-� "— L From:. Don Hansen, City Council Member s Date: April 10, 2006 n a Subject: H-ITEM FOR APRIL 17, CITY COUNCIL MEETING - _ N RECONSIDERATION OF BRUSH DRIVE STREET REPAIRS STATEMENT OF ISSUE: On February 6, 2006, staff presented a contract award recommendation for repairs to numerous streets on the residential street repair petition list. One of these streets, Brush Drive, between Waite Lane and Newland Street, has been on the list since 1995, finally receiving budget funding for repairs this fiscal year. Once preliminary planning for the construction documents commenced and the property owners on Brush Drive were notified of the impending work, some of them became concerned over the anticipated removal of numerous city-owned parkway trees adjacent to their homes. These residents challenged the validity of the petition because it was over 10-years old; alleged that many of the original petitioners had moved; and claimed that most owners signing the petition did not understand the extent to which the damaged curb and sidewalk replacement would necessitate removal of the adjacent parkway trees. When the contract bids were presented on February 6, and after extensive discussion, Council directed staff to "...(a) effect satisfactory repairs to the sidewalks to mitigate immediate safety issues, (b) perform spot repairs to curbs and gutters where necessary for safety concerns, and (c) protect trees as much as feasible to accomplish the necessary safety repairs without leaving any tree in an unsafe condition." Subsequent to the Council's action, the property owner who circulated the original petition requested that the City Council reconsider its action and proceed with the full repairs. This owner asserted that the adopted alternative direction, which he felt was recommended merely to satisfy a vocal minority of objecting residents, will lead to an inadequate result- is not responsive to the majority of the Brush Drive homeowners; and is unfair to the original petitioners. Referring to the attached map, there are 50 properties along Brush Drive in the improvement area. Twenty-nine (29) of these properties have mature trees whose root systems are causing damage and are susceptible to removal. The remaining 21 properties either have no parkway trees or have recently planted parkway trees that are not at risk. Staff would expect to plant some 40 new replacement trees (with some corner lots receiving two trees) if the entire project were to be reconstructed as originally planned. H-ITEM FOR APRIL 17, CITY COUNCIL MEETING-RECONSIDERATION OF BRUSH DRIVE STREET REPAIRS 4/10/2006 Page 2 CITY OBLIGATION: The City Attorney has provided an opinion that there is no process in place by which the city or the adjacent property owners along Brush Drive may revoke a petition process. In fact, regardless of the existence of any petition, the city remains primarily responsible for public safety issues in the public rights of way. RECOMMENDED ACTION: The City Council should reopen discussion on its prior action relative to its direction to staff concerning Brush Drive. The project should be reconsidered in light of reconstructing the entire street's curbs and gutters as (1) the only permanent solution to the street's drainage problems; (2) the only way to eliminate the liability exposure to the City from tree damage; and (3) the means to uphold fair and equitable treatment of the adjacent property owners who took the initiative to improve their street and have been waiting nearly 11 years for this project.

Beardsley, Director of Public Works . DATE: July 22, 2002 SUBJECT: Rubber Sidewalk Pavers One year ago (7/14/01), the L.A. Times published an article about a sidewalk replacement product developed by a city of Santa Monica employee using recycled rubber instead of concrete. The intent of this product is to provide increased flexibility and, thereby, allow tree roots to encroach under the walkway without creating the safety problems often encountered in raised concrete sidewalk sections.. Mayor Pro tem Boardman provided copies of this article to all Council Members and asked that my.staff. investigate the feasibility of installations in Huntington Beach. We researched the manufacturer of.this product and obtained a sample section for testing;. The product .;. was found to be very dense and substantial; however, it proved to have very low durability.against surface wear. So, before we purchased and installed this product.in the field,:we found that,the city"of Long Beach had already done so: I asked my staff to visit Long Beach bast month; to observe:fihe: product in an actual field application. The notes and a photo from the field visit are attached,:giving`.. some pros and cons and comments from staffs observations. The rubber sidewalk modules, alone; cost$6.95/square foot plus tax ($0.52). Another$0.58/sq. ft. is needed for restraints to hold the panels in place and, then, $0.10/sq. ft. is required for glue. This totals $8.15/sq. ft. To compare with concrete, the cost to remove the old sidewalk must be factored in at $1.50/sq. ft., which brings the total cost to $9.65/sq. ft. Compared to the total cost for concrete sidewalk at$3.50/sq. ft. (including removals), the rubber product is nearly three times more expensive. The rubber sidewalk is available for a limited time under a"pilot project discount" at substantial savings; however,with the disadvantages we found in this product, my recommendation is to not pursue an installation in Huntington Beach at this time. RFB:cf, Attachments: Field Notes(undated)from Long Beach site investigation Photograph from Long Beach installation c: William P.Workman,Assistant City Administrator Paul Emery,Deputy Director of Public Works James Jones,Maintenance Operations Manager Charles Davis,Landscape Architect David Webb,City Engineer t� Just a few words in regards to the field trip we went on. Here are a few pros and cons of rubber sidewalks that we looked at in Long Beach: Pros 1. The recycling benefit, it would assist us in meeting our current requirements. 2. The flexibility of the product. 3. The ease of handling the product. 4. The product would be adequate for pedestrian traffic. Cons 1. Transitions A. We witnessed a razor scooter that had difficulty with the transitions. B. Roller Blades may also have problem with the transition. 2. Compaction in some areas would be hard to accomplish. 3. Consolidation of concrete appears easier than the use of this product. 4. Water appeared to cause adverse conditions with the product ( edges were starting to curl after just two months ). 5. Residents in the apartment complex where rubber sidewalks were instated are not pleased with the sidewalk. 6. The cost of rubber product and instalation was about twice the cost concrete sidewalks. A few things that are uncertain: 1. Longevity of the product. 2. Where would be an appropriate location for the product. 3. Would soil test have to be completed for compatibility with this product. 4. Stain resistance such as surf wax, paint, gum, tree dropings.

Yes, four years ago our product was experimental because it was new to the market. However that is not the case today. We are a proven solution. Since 2002, over 80 cities have installed the product with over 130 installations and over 100,000 sf. For example, the city of Santa Monica uses our product for 10% of their sidewalk maintenance program. The City of Santa Monica is also a "Tree City" similar to Huntington Beach. In addition, the City of Santa Monica just completed a 5 year study of our product in the spring of 2005, proofing that our product was a solution near tree roots. In addition, larger cities such as Seattle, San Francisco, and Washington, DC are using our product. State agencies such as the California State Parks and the California EPA are also using our product. Designed primarily for use in place of concrete where sidewalks are adjacent to trees, Rubbersidewalks can save your urban trees, eliminate trip and fall lawsuits, and reduce costs of chronic concrete break out SAVING cities, thousands of dollars. Our company is the leading supplier of non-concrete sidewalks in the United States. The revolutionary product was introduced in 1998 as a fundamentally new system: modular sidewalk paving. Rubbersidewalks offers an alternative to concrete: heavy-duty, sidewalk-worthy rubber paving tiles (pavers) made of 100% recycled tire rubber. In addition, we can train your contractor or your city crew to install our product. Attached please find our flyer, press releases and marketing materials. In addition, I've included a link to a special news story about our installation in the City of Santa Monica, CA. Just click onto the link below. http:Hkcbs.dayport.com/viewer/viewerpage.php?

Cities across the country struggle with the public safety concerns and financial burdens posed by tree roots lifting concrete sidewalks. Rubbersidewalks' modular sidewalk system allows air and water to easily reach soil below, so trees develop less aggressive roots which can be easily maintained during periodic inspection. Rubbersidewalks currently installed nationwide: Over 50,000 square feet in over 60 cities. Average cost per square foot, including break out and installation: $15.00 Standard size: 2' x 2.5' x 1.8767 5 square feet, universal-use size Installation method: Interconnected, modular system Cost savings: • Rubbersidewalks eliminate injury and costly claims for trip and fall accidents • Concrete sidewalks cannot be "maintained". They must be completely demolished, off hauled, and replaced. • Rubbersidewalks maintenance is economical • Rubbersidewalks, Inc. tracks all installation sites for maintenance review, alleviating burden on city Benefits of Rubbersidewalks: • Saves the urban forest by eliminating need for tree removal • Modular system allows pavers to be periodically opened for inspection and easily reinstalled • Available in assorted shades and textures to resemble concrete, granite or adobe- colored pavements • Reversible pavers, last for at least 12 years of typical usage • Provides safe passage for all pedestrian and wheeled traffic • Directs water into soil thus reducing water run-off into storm drain • Resilient though firm, more comfortable and healthy to walk or jog on • Absorbs sound, reduces decibel level of foot and wheeled traffic • Safe, non-toxic and flame resistant • Can be used in tree wells as well as sidewalks • Excellent for use in temporary sidewalk situations, such as special events or construction sites Serves the environment: • One-square-foot of Rubbersidewalks recycles waste rubber from one passenger tire • In California alone more than 34 million passenger tires are disposed of each year creating 408 million pounds of waste rubber. • Each 20 square foot installation saves one tree from removal • Rubbersidewalks' pavers are recollected and recycled at the end of their life cycle Company: Headquartered in Gardena, California, Rubbersidewalks, Inc. was founded in 2001 by company president/CEO, Lindsay Smith. The product was invented by Richard Valeriano, public works inspector for the City of Santa Monica, where it was tested for more than three years before being offered to other municipalities. Today, Rubbersidewalks are being installed regularly in cities throughout the United States and Canada including California Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Oregon, New York, New Jersey, Vermont and Washington.

On hot summer days, urban air can be up to 10`F hotter than the surrounding countryside. Not to be confused with global climate change, scientists call this phenomenon the "heat island effect." Heat islands form as cities replace natural land cover with pavement, buildings, and other infrastructure. Increased urban temperatures can affect public health, the environment, and the amount of energy that consumers use for summertime cooling. • Public Health: Heat islands can amplify extreme hot weather events, which can cause heat stroke and lead to physiological disruption, organ damage, and even death — especially in vulnerable populations such as the elderly. • The Environment: Summertime heat islands increase energy demand for air conditioning, raising power plant emissions of harmful pollutants. Higher temperatures also accelerate the chemical reaction that produces ground-level ozone, or smog. This threatens public health, the environment, and for some communities may make it harder to meet federal air quality goals. • Energy Use: Because homes and buildings absorb the sun's energy, heat islands can increase the demand for summertime cooling and raise energy expenditures. For every 1° F (0.6° C) increase in summertime temperature, peak utility loads in medium and large cities increase by an estimated 1.5-2.0 percent. Cities in cold climates may actually benefit from the wintertime warming effect of heat islands. Warmer temperatures can reduce heating energy needs and may help melt ice and snow on roads. In the summertime, however, the same city may experience the negative effects of heat islands. Fortunately, there are a number of steps that communities can take to lessen the impacts of heat islands. These "heat island reduction strategies" include: • Installing cool or vegetated green roofs • Planting trees and vegetation • Switching to cool paving materials Visit EPA's Heat Island Site for more information on what local governments and citizens can do to address the problem of rising urban temperatures.

Or, if you're buying a new home, you're probably anxious to get those trees planted to reap the awards in the years ahead. The benefits of trees are numerous. They increase property values, sometimes as much as 20 percent, according to the National Arbor Day Foundation. On average, trees add between 5 to 7 percent to the value of the property- the U.S. Forest Service says the added value results in an extra $5,000 per lot. Trees also help cool your home. The USFS says trees that are placed strategically around buildings can reduce air conditioning needs by 30 percent and can save 20 to 50 percent in energy used to heat a home. Growing Greener Cities, A Tree Planting Handbook (Global Releaf, Living Plant Press, Los Angeles, 1992), says the average base value for a tree with a 10-inch diameter (measured 4.5 feet from the ground) is $1,729. A tree with a 30-inch diameter has an average base value of$15,554. The values are adjusted based on species, location in relation to the house, and condition. As you set out to plant a tree, the International Society of Arboriculture recommends you consider: • The reason the tree is being planted. Will it be for shade, fruit, or seasonal color? • How much space you have. Determine whether a small-, medium- or large-sized tree would fit best. Be sure to consider overhead, underground wires and utilities. • Clearance for sidewalks, patios and driveways. • Soil conditions. Is the soil deep, fertile and well drained, or is it shallow, compact, and infertile? Many nurseries and garden centers will provide - for a minor fee - an evaluation of your soil's fertility and pH. The test is typically returned with recommendations for improving your soil with fertilizers or soil amendments. e Exposure. How much sunlight will the tree have? Most woody plants need full sunlight; some do well in light shade. Few perform well under heavy shade http://realtytimes.com/ni/nipages79/2trees.htm?opendocument&[D=natesumner Page 1 of 2 REGavtiu FROM 4;'�= v "-•Yrc� AS PUBLIC RECORD FOR COUNCIL MEETING OF 22IA49 / '""a CITY CL K OFFICE JOAN L.FLYNN,CITY CLERK BRUSH DRIVE STREET IMPROVEMENT PETITION Date: S O We, the homeowners on Brush Drive, want the city to go ahead.with.the proposal'to fix our street as originally approved by the City Council in October of 2005.

The popularity of Southern California's most destructive curbside shade tree is starting to bounce back--thanks to rubber sidewalks. Leafy ficus trees have helped cool neighborhood roadsides for decades. As they have grown, though, their stubborn roots have created safety hazards by pushing concrete sidewalk slabs out of the ground. That has prompted repair crews throughout the region to chop down rows of the dense, green- canopied trees. Replacement trees have generally been slower-growing and scrawnier-looking. But street maintenance workers in Southern California will soon be stretching the life expectancy of the ficus by using flexible sidewalks made from recycled automobile tires. The rubber sidewalk gently bends when pushed from below by tree roots. It's also soft enough to cushion the landing of anyone unlucky enough to trip and fall on it. When the roots need trimming, the rubber panels can be popped out and then reused. The panels are made from high-density, non-mushy rubber that is tough enough to handle skateboards and women's high heels. Around trees, they replace about a 10-foot length of conventional concrete sidewalk surface. The rubber sidewalk has been a dream of Santa Monica street inspector Richard Valeriano for seven years. It came to him, in fact, while he was asleep. "In my dream, sidewalks were all bending and twisting, but there was no cracking," Valeriano said. "I woke up and said, 'Wow! Elastic sidewalks! I wonder how we can make them?' " Valeriano answered his own question a short time later when the West Los Angeles health club where he works out was remodeled. New flooring made of rubberized tile squares was installed. "That's it!" he exclaimed. After some research, Valeriano linked up with a Rancho Cucamonga rubber mat manufacturing firm, U.S. Rubber Recycling Inc. With his help, the company produced a 30-by-12-inch tile from ground-up tires. When baked under pressure in a mold and dyed a red-brick color, the finished rubber tile has the look of five bricks arranged in a pattern. http://www.mindfully.org/Plastic/Rubber-Sidewalks.htm Page 1 of 4 With Rubber Sidewalks,Trees Are on the Rebound Bob Pool/ LA Times 14jul01 04/30/2006 11:03 AM New Pavers First Used Near Library Branch Valeriano got the backing of his Santa Monica bosses to purchase a pallet load of the 2-inch-thick molded pavers and began experimenting with ways to glue them down. In 1999, he wrapped up two years of tests at the city street maintenance yard by replacing a badly cracked section of public sidewalk with rubber. That walkway--beneath a ficus tree next to the city's library branch at Ocean Park Boulevard and 21st Street--was a success. Soon Santa Monica crews were installing the rubber pavers under ficus trees at half a dozen other places in town. Santa Monica's rubber sidewalks got some unexpected bounce in April because of ficus tree-cutters near Torrance. Lindsay Smith, a Gardena screenwriter and producer, spied a Los Angeles County work crew starting to cut down 26 ficus trees along Redondo Beach Boulevard near the Alondra Park Golf Course. Smith persuaded the workers to hold up until alternatives to the cutting could be discussed. Then she got on the telephone and started calling arborists in hopes of finding a way to save the trees. One expert mentioned Santa Monica's rubber sidewalk experiment. Smith managed to save 12 of the ficus trees after arranging a demonstration of Santa Monica's rubber walkways. Public works officials from the county and from adjoining South Bay cities showed up. A second demonstration drew officials from cities in Orange County as well. Public works leaders from Hermosa Beach, Los Angeles, Long Beach, Glendale, Cerritos and the city of Orange were among those from 15 cities who pledged their own rubber sidewalk tests. Officials from a dozen other cities expressed interest. The cities' walkway evaluations will cost about $1,000 per tree. But since recycled tires are used for the rubber, the tests could end up being underwritten by state grants financed by a $1 per tire recycling fee motorists pay when they replace their cars' tires. At current prices, rubber walkways are about twice as expensive as concrete. But the cost evens out when sidewalks next to trees have to be repaired every five or six years, Valeriano said. He speculated that rubber sidewalks are tough enough to last for decades. U.S. Rubber Recycling President Rick Snyder said the $6-a-square-foot cost of each rubber panel is likely to fall dramatically if they come into wide use. http://www.mindfully.org/Plastic/Rubber-Sidewalks'.htm Page 2 of 4 With Rubber Sidewalks,Trees Are on the Rebound Bob Pool/ LA Times 14jul01 04/30/2006 11:03 AM "People call Lindsay a tree-hugger. . . . She's doing this from her heart. We're not paying her," he said. Municipal officials are cautiously optimistic about taking rubber from the road and putting it on the sidewalk. Unlike Santa Monica--which has a no-cutting policy toward street trees--most cities routinely remove trees when their roots buckle sidewalks or threaten to do so. "It's a new idea, and we're looking for new ideas," Jeff Porch, a Long Beach street maintenance supervisor, said of.the rubber walkways. Said Ray Torres, a Glendale public works official: "From what I've seen, it looks good. It might be something that can help us." L.A. Considering Test of Rubber Sidewalks In the city of Orange, officials planning to test about 100 square feet of rubber sidewalks are hoping the material will put an end to jackhammering and conventional concrete replacement, said Tara Finnigan, the city's business and public affairs manager. Rubber sidewalk experiments are also being considered in each.of Los Angeles' 15 council districts. "We like the project. We like the possibilities. We want to see what happens," said Cora Fossett, a spokeswoman for the Department of Public Works. "We'll hopefully put them in places where property owners really want to save the trees." Some arborists contend the ficus is the wrong tree for urban curbsides. But they say they are interested in how the rubber sidewalks handle its tough roots. "I need to see it before I can imagine it," said Jim Summers, forestry director for TreePeople, a Los Angeles arbor group. "We want to preserve as many ficuses as we can, but there comes a time when resources can be better spent finding a different tree." In Santa Monica, meantime, officials have invested about $40,000 in molds for the rubber pavers and in various types of adhesives for tests in gluing them down. Although other cities have asked for gray, concrete-colored rubber, Santa Monica favors red because it seems to fade less in sunlight, Valeriano said. A recent survey of Santa Monica's 235 miles of sidewalks shows that even with rubber repairs, city resources could be thinly stretched. There are 664 places were roots have raised sidewalks 3 inches or more, and 1,800 other spots where the displacement is slightly less, Valeriano said. http://www.mindfully.org/Plastic/Rubber-Sidewalks.htm Page 3 of 4 With Rubber Sidewalks,Trees Are on the Rebound Bob Pool/ LA Times 14jul01 04/30/2006 11:03 AM Those who walk on the flexible sidewalks seem to like them. Outside the library on 21st Street, 10- year-old Isabel Spiegel had an unusual spring in her step as she skipped over the walkway. "It feels better than regular brick," she said. Her father, Venice advertising copywriter Jeff Spiegel, said he's not surprised that cities are jumping on the rubber walkways. "Big camphor trees tear up the sidewalk where we live," Spiegel said. "This seems like it would be worth a try in Venice."

Now, in Seattle's South Park neighborhood and in a growing number of cities around the country, there are rubber sidewalks. The other day, Eric Sweet, who lives in the neighborhood, was doing ate �' test walk of the roughly 60-foot stretch of bluish-gray rubber panels ,. that city transportation department crews finished installing last Friday. ` "Wow," he said takingtentative steps on the surface that was firm but P had a little give. It was sort of like walking on used tires, from which the rubber panels are made. "They do feel different. It's kind of cool." Liz Ellis, an arborist with the city's transportation department, championed bringing rubber sidewalks to Seattle after she read they were being tested in Santa Monica, Calif., and other cities. Q4zaom Karen Ducey/P-1 She was intrigued not by the novelty of it. Nor did she want to give Crews from Rubbersidewalks Inc. install rubberized panels at Eighth Avenue South Seattleites a little extra bounce in their step as the winter gloom sets in. and South Rose Street in South Park. Five recycled tires are used in each panel,57 of Shepointed to a mound in the rubber sidewalk, raised b the roots which make up this test walkway.The P Y sidewalks are more elastic than concrete growing from one of the red maple trees on the shady, lush street of ones, stretching to accommodate growing small houses on Eighth Avenue South between South Rose and South tree roots, and don't have to be replaced as often, saving costs. Thistle streets. Across the street, where the sidewalk is concrete, the growing roots of another tree had already cracked it. "That (sidewalk) was just put in about a year ago," Ellis said. The rubberized sidewalks are more elastic, so instead of cracking, they stretch, and have to be replaced less often and are cheaper to fix, Ellis said. She doesn't know whether the sidewalks of Seattle will someday be paved in rubber. They are being tested only in the small stretch on the one street because it is still relatively new. Santa Monica was the first city to install them in 1998. At $8.70 a square foot, the rubber plates cost about $2 more a square foot to install than a regular concrete or asphalt sidewalk, Ellis acknowledged. http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/printer2/index.asp?ploc=b&refer=http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/243444-ncenterO5.html Page 1 of 2 Loading"Rubber sidewalks add bounce to city foot traffic" 04/30/2006 11:12 AM The test patch in South Park cost the city $8,000. Over time, she said, the extra cost might be offset by the fact that cracked sidewalks won't have to be replaced as often. Richard Valeriano, Santa Monica's senior street maintenance inspector, said it's still too early to know the long-term cost of the rubberized sidewalks. But, he said, the labor costs of replacing them runs about $1.50 square foot instead of the $8 to $12 it costs to break up and replace concrete. Santa Monica has installed them at about 50 sites, Valeriano said. Dan Joyce, a principal at the Gardena, Calif.-based rubber sidewalk manufacturer Rubbersidewalks Inc., said 80 cities in eight states are trying rubberized sidewalks. Tacoma and Olympia are among them. Butting up against concrete sidewalks can damage tree roots, and Seattle occasionally has to remove the trees, Ellis said. She came across the rubberized sidewalks after grappling with the same issue that inspired the company to develop the technology -- to get trees and sidewalks to coexist. "if you care about sustainability, you have to try to get the most life out of what you have," she said. Each of the 57 rubber panels installed, she said, is made of five recycled tires. "That's a big mountain of tires that won't be going into a landfill," she said. Joyce said the company's founder, Lindsay Smith, a screenwriter, got the idea when she was upset that Los Angeles County crews were going to rip out trees in her neighborhood and discovered that Santa Monica County was experimenting with rubberized sidewalks. Sweet, the man who was walking down the street, had one worry. He slid his sneakered foot across the rubberized sidewalk and wondered if it would become as slick as a Wham-0 Slip 'N Slide when it rains.' Valeriano, though, said Santa Monica tested the sidewalk with skateboarders, rollerbladers and women in high heels and found the rubber has more traction than concrete. Said Debbie McNeil, who is active with the South Park Neighborhood Association, "We want to keep as many street trees here. as possible. But we also want sidewalks that don't trip us."

One of these streets, Brush Drive, between Waite Lane and Newland Street, has been on the list since 1995, finally receiving budget funding for repairs this fiscal year. Once preliminary planning for the construction documents commenced and the property owners on Brush Drive were notified of the impending work, some of them became concerned over the anticipated removal of numerous city-owned parkway trees adjacent to their homes. These residents challenged the validity of the petition because it was over 10-years old, alleged that many of the original petitioners had moved; and claimed that most owners signing the petition did not understand the extent to which the damaged curb and sidewalk replacement would necessitate removal of the adjacent parkway trees. When the contract bids were presented on February 6, and after extensive discussion, Council directed staff to "...(a) effect satisfactory repairs to the sidewalks to mitigate immediate safety issues, (b) perform spot repairs to curbs and gutters where necessary for safety concerns, and (c) protect trees as much as feasible to accomplish the necessary safety repairs without leaving any tree in an unsafe condition." Subsequent to the Council's action, the property owner who circulated the original petition requested that the City Council reconsider its action and proceed with the full repairs. This owner asserted that the adopted alternative direction, which he felt was recommended merely to satisfy a vocal minority of objecting residents, will lead to an inadequate result; is not responsive to the majority of the Brush Drive homeowners; and is unfair to the original petitioners. Referring to the attached map, there are 50 properties along Brush Drive in the improvement area. Twenty-nine (29) of these properties have mature trees whose root systems are causing damage and are susceptible to removal. The remaining 21 properties either have no parkway trees or have recently planted parkway trees that are not at risk. Staff would expect to plant some 40 new replacement trees (with some corner lots receiving two trees) if the entire project were to be reconstructed as originally planned �� �!/ 7 _p � �5r H-ITEM FOR APRIL 17, CITY COUNCIL MEETING -RECONSIDERATION OF BRUSH DRIVE STREET REPAIRS 4/10/2006 Page 2 CITY OBLIGATION: The City Attorney has provided an opinion that there is no process in place by which the city or the adjacent property owners along Brush Drive may revoke a petition process. In fact, regardless of the existence of any petition, the city remains primarily responsible for public safety issues in the public rights of way. RECOMMENDED ACTION: The City Council should reopen discussion on its prior action relative to its direction to staff concerning Brush Drive. The project should be reconsidered in light of reconstructing the entire street's curbs and gutters as (1) the only permanent solution to the street's drainage problems; (2) the only way to eliminate the liability exposure to the City from tree damage; and (3) the means to uphold fair and equitable treatment of the adjacent property owners who took the initiative to improve their street and have been waiting nearly 11 years for this project.

Sarah Twining June 29, 2006 16572 Monroe Street Huntington Beach CA 92647 Huntington Beach City Council Robert Beardsley, Public Works 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach CA 92648 Dear City Council and Mr. Beardsley, My husband and I do not feel that a large project to redo the street is neces- sary for Brush Drive and wish to preserve our tree lined street. The mature trees look much better, make the street cooler and provide shade. We are concerned that the real estate values on our street will decline from their loss. This street does not need a major street project. We have been away in Europe and have been unable to attend any City Council meetings. Before we left, my husband felt pressured into signing the petition by Mr. Herrema, but I signed a paper to take his name off of it, because it is not really what we want. I understand that this document was not acknowledged at the council meeting on 6-19-06. Please allow us the right to change our mind and remove our name from the latest petition.

Signed Date z/(;, ' Print Gi✓`6 v�` �O� name Sarah Twining June 29, 2006 16572 Monroe Street Huntington Beach CA 92647 Huntington Beach City Council Robert Beardsley, Public Works 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach CA 92648 Dear City Council and Mr. Beardsley, My husband and I do not feel that a large project to redo the street is neces- sary for Brush Drive and wish to preserve our tree lined street. The mature trees look much better, make the street cooler and provide shade. We are concerned that the real estate values on our street will decline from their loss. This street does not need a major street project. We have been away in Europe and have been unable to attend any City Council meetings. Before we left, my husband felt pressured into signing the petition by Mr. Herrema, but I signed a paper to take his name off of it, because it is not really what we want. I understand that this document was not acknowledged at the council meeting on 6-19-06. Please allow us the right to change our mind and remove our name from the latest petition. S cerely, Sarah Twiniffing
