COMMISSIONS. AND COMMITTEES Director of Administrative Services Yeats requested the Baldwin Park Redevelopment Agency Board and the City Council to authorize a series of transactions between the Agency and the City to provide the cash requirements for property acquisition for the Triangle Project. A Disposition and Development Agreement was approved by the Agency Board and the Council on November 15, 1995. The Agreement is between the Baldwin Park Redevelopment Agency, the City of Baldwin Park, SDC Partners, Inc. and Dayton Hudson Corporation TARGET) and received final approval by all parties on November 28th, 1995. The Agency is in the final stage of acquisition and relocation, and our consultants have met with all the property owners. 33% of the 41 parcels in the project are being processed. December 20, 1995 the Agency Board adopted a Resolution of Necessity, authorizing the filing of an action in eminent domain. The next step in this process is the actual filing of eminent domain complaints by the Agency and a us pendens notice is recorded on the remaining parcels. In order to have sufficient cash on hand to close escrows on the acquired properties or place deposits with the courts for properties to be condemned, the Agency has a cash requirement of approximately $2,950,000. To assemble this funding the following actions are required: 1. Authorize a loan from the City to the Sierra Vista Capital Projects Fund in the amount of $750,000. 2. Authorization for the Sierra Vista Project Area Debt Service Fund to repay the loan from the City. 3. Authorize a loan from the City to the San Gabriel River Capital Projects Fund in the amount of $1 000,000.

Then a prevention assessment is levied; and 3) Section 91.14, the revised section would allow for collection of the prevention assessment through small claims. Staff recommended approval. It was moved and seconded to Introduce Ordinance No.1111, AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF BALDWIN PARK AMENDING CHAPTER 91 RELATED TO ALARM SYSTEMS,Z for first reading to be read in title only, and all further reading be waived. M/S/C: LOWES/MUSE. There were no objections. Director of Public Works Mousavi stated that the WQA has requested a variance from Section 130.04 of the Baldwin Park Municipal Code, which states that No person shall engage in any acts of construction...except between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. The San Gabriel Basin Water Quality Authority will be installing two to four monitoring wells throughout the City. The monitoring wells will be used to test the integrity of the water prior to and during the treatment process. The sites are located at 1) on Valley Vista Avenue, between Filhurst and Harlan Avenues; and 2) in the southbound traffic lane of La Rica Avenue, approximately 40 feet north of Baldwin Park Boulevard. The WQA is requesting to drill the wells on a 24 hour basis with an anticipated seven-day drilling completion schedule. After the 24 hour seven day drilling period, the well construction and final testing of the well will take place over an additional 14-day period for a total construction schedule of 21 days. If the WQA adheres to the City ordinance it would result in a total construction schedule of 35 days. The WOA requested the variance because the 14-day schedule would result in more associated costs than the 21 day schedule and that from an engineering perspective it is the most efficient way to construct these monitoring wells. Staff believes the 24 hour, seven days may compromise the convenience and public welfare of the residents in the surrounding areas. Staff has not received a detailed site plan for the well sites, a traffic control plan, noise analysis, or drilling schedule for the construction of the wells. If Council decides to allow the WOA to proceed with the variance request, one type of modification will be needed for the existing Section 130.04 of the Municipal Code. The modification options are: 1) Amend the ordinance to allow for variances to Title 13, General Offenses, giving the Council authority to grant such variances; or 2) Amend the ordinance to allow for variances to Title 13, General Offenses, giving the Director of Public Works the authority to grant such variances; or 3) Amend the ordinance to include language for 24 hour construction in certain circumstances. Staff recommended proceeding with an amendment to Title 13 of the Municipal code, General Offenses, to allow for variances, giving the City Council the authority to grant such variances. In response to Councilmember Lowes, Director Mousavi stated that modification of the ordinance paves the way for other requests for construction variances.

In response to Councilmember Lozano, Director Mousavi stated that the WQA has stated that the specific walls around the drilling well to will protect the noise from going from that location to outside surrounding areas. However, the City does not have the noise analysis for each of the wells. Mayor Vargas explained that no Public Hearing was scheduled on the amendment to the Municipal Code, but he would allowed public input. Jim Goodrich, Executive Director of the Water Quality Authority of San Gabriel Valley, stated that they have been charged by the State of California to coordinate the clean up of the contamination of the water beneath the City's of Irwindale, Azusa and Baldwin Park. WQA has reached out to the communities to see what major impacts were going to be served on the citizens. There will be some inconvenience with some sound at night, but that will be minimized, but the upside is WQA gets the work done quickly. There is one part of the drilling process, the installation of the steel tube in the well, that cannot be interrupted, and that will take from 12 to 36 hours for this depth of well. That means it could run past the ordinance time limit, because it cannot be stopped. He further stated that he had been to the citizens that would be impacted and they prefer the WQA to finish the job quickly. In response to Mayor pro tem Martinez, Mr. Goodrich stated that if Council did not allow the variance that WOA would be forced into a legal issue. This is a Federal Super Fund Project under Federal Law and that he preferred working with the citizens rather than the EPA. He further stated that St. John's, the apartment houses, and several houses across Baldwin Park Blvd. would be impacted. He stated that WQA has inquired of Father Jim the impact on the Church when the street has to be closed off. The EPA selected the drilling sites by computer modeling and a geotechnical contractor and he explained the things factored into their decision. There are no wells planned for the City of Azusa as their water is not contaminated. He further stated that bilingual people would be available and that the literature is also printed in Spanish. Mayor pro tem Martinez stated that an individual who lives on Monterey Avenue across from Kenmore &school, was inconvenienced by the noise of the drilling at Kenmore School at night. In response to Mayor Vargas, Mr. Goodrich stated that if the drilling is stopped, they run a high risk of losing the entire operation, and they would have to start over in a different location. The engineer is Cam Russell McKee and the construction company is Balliec Drilling.

Mr. Goodrich stated that they are not pressing their exemption, but asked the City for cooperation and assistance to finish the job. They did drill 24-hour a day on the school property. He further stated that they did not have to comply with City ordinances. He stated that they are willing to pull permits, that they normally would not have to ask for. Mr. Goodrich asked that the City entertain the idea of a variance, that he would bring back to Council the will of the people, and that he would proceed the way those people would like to WOA to proceed. He further stated that WOA is trying to be a good neighbor, that they have asked EVO to identify those that they feel would be impacted, and to offer to take them to a drilling site. If Council decides not to consider the variance WOA will be forced to enforce their exemption. In response to Councilmember Lowes, Mr. Goodrich stated that at the Valley Vista location drilling would be 12 hours a day, except at the one period of the installation of the steel casing. The WOA is willing to make every concession, even to placing people in a motel room until the 24 hour period of drilling is over. He further stated that a detailed drilling schedule was given to EVO, so they are aware of the operation. A Town Meeting has been scheduled on February 13th, at St. John's at 7:00 p.m. In response to Councilmember Lozano, Mr. Goodrich stated that during the drilling process a thick mud is used to hold the hole open, because it is so thick, it will float the steel casing. The mud has to be thinned, once the mud is thinned, the hole is unstable, so you have to work quickly. The risk of sand running into the hole, or the hole collapsing is very high. This is a taxpayer burden of $250,000 if the well collapses. Mayor Vargas stated that the issue before Council is creating any future construction projects to work outside the 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. time frame. It was moved and seconded to reject amending the Municipal Code, Section 130.04. M/S/C: MUSE/LOWES. There were no objections. Director of Recreation/Community Services Nunez requested Council approval to transfer funds from a trust account to contract services provided by Clark Green and Associates. Staff was authorized by Council to submit a grant application for funding to improve recreational facilities from the Coca Cola Homers for America. As part of the application, it was necessary to submit a plot plan with construction documents for proposed work. Staff did not go through a formal bid since Clark Green and Associates agreed to donate a portion of their services to benefit the youth of the community. The architect agreed to do the work for $1 000 plus reimbursable expenses totaling $377.83. Staff was able to raise funds to cover the expense for the work performed.
