Under terms of the contract $8,604 has been retained by the city. The attorney for the contractor, the attorney for the bonding company, the city attorney and the city staff have now agreed to release undisputed funds in the amount of $6,680 due on the contract to the bonding company, American Fidelity. These funds will be given to the bonding company by the city attorney upon receipt of an agreement to indemnify and hold harmless the city. It is recommended that the city council authorize the pay- ment of $6,686 at this time to American Fidelity, the bonding company for Barr/Nelson, Inc.

They • have also agreed to pay for the cost of any blacktop work needed to match the existing roadway with the new curb. This cost split is the standard county policy. The total cost of -the change is $16,525. The city's portion is $6,258, and the county's portion is $10,267. The city's portion will be reim- bursed by ~~lunicipal State Aid monies. Special assessments are not recommended for this project. Although some residents along county roads have been assessed in the past for the street improvements to county roads; these assessments were always part of the reconstruction of the entire street. Storm Water Control __ At the July 25, 1983 study session on storm water, there was concensus of the council that three storm water control improvements be made. These are: 1. The 6800 block on Xerxes Avenue. The sidewalk and boulevard in front of 6917 Xerxes Avenue can be raised to hold mere water in the street. The estim- ated cost of this elevation adjustment is $1,860. 2. A private alley extending south from 68th Street be- tween Oliver and Newton Avenues. The boulevard and • driveway can be raised to hold more water in the street. This should mitigate the potential for storm water damage within the block. The estimated cost of this improvement is $3,075. Council Letter No. 278 -2- August 8, 1983 • 3. The 6600 block between Washburn and Vincent Avenues. The alley entrance off Washburn can be raised to better hold the water in the street and prevent water from traveling down the alley and into the garages. The estimated cost is X1,500. The Rosens at 6917 Xerxes, the Aschers at 6800 Newton and the Bloedows at 6801 Oliver have met with the city staff and approve of the proposed improvements. Portions of the aforementioned properties will be regraded to match the raised boulevards. It is recommended that the city council approve the change order for the Xerxes Avenue curb and the attached resol- ution which allows the expenditure of Municipal State Aid funds on a street not designated part of the city's state aid system. The State Aid office will reimburse the city for this expendi- ture because Xerxes Avenue is on the County State Aid System. The staff also recommends that the three storm water improve- ments be approved by the city council.

Sylvia R, Bergh, City Cler.c • _~ .~ ~~ ~ CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No. 277 Agenda August 8, 1983 The Honorable Mayor and Llembers of the City Council City of Richfield Council Members: Subject: Approval of Minutes, Tabulation of Bids and Award of Contract for Mobile Radios As the council may recall, since 1969 the police division of the Department of Public Safety has leased two-way radios from the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department. Currently, 20 radios are being leased, 19 of which are 14 years old and have only limited transmit/receive capabilities. With continued daily use, all 20 radios are presently in need of repair. Additionally, the city owns nine similar vintage and design i radios for use by the Fire and Emergency Services Divisions. For sometime now Hennepin County has intended to replace their radios and reconstruct the lease terry agreements. The new lease agreement would be far more restrictive than. the current lease, which permits radio additions and/or deletions without penalty at any time. The new lease agreement requires a four year commitment on the part of the city to all radio leasing decisions. With previous knowledge of this situation, the city council approved solicitation of bids in April, 1983 for competitive pricing information for the potential of city owned radios, should the county lease and cost arrangement not be satisfactory. Our bidding process was completed on May 2, 1983, and Motorola was the only compliant bidder: Since `-iay 2, the Public Safety Department has been closely monitoring the developments relative to Hennepin County awarding a bid for re- placement radios. On July 26, 1983, Hennepin County completed their bidding process. However, these bids have not yet been reviewed for specification compliance. The apparent low bidder is Aerotron, who is new to the field of public safety radios in this area. It is also apparent that the Hennepin County bid specifications were far less demanding than the bid specifications adopted by Richfield. Specifically, the county radios will be able to scan only eight channels, while those specified by Richfield will be able to scan 12 transmit/ • receive channels. This particular feature is available only from Motorola in the configuration we require, and this is critical to our operatior:al design, in that it permits patroling Police Officers to always be fully a~~~are of developing incidents Office of City Manager Council Letter No. 277 -2- August 8, 1983 • in neighboring communities, as well as developing fire incid- ents in our own community. This feature also allows full util- ization of the scarce Police and Fire radio channels we utilize for public safety purpcses. The Department of Public Safety is proposing that leased VHF Police mobile radios and self-owned fire and emergency service division radios be replaced with state of the art, Motorola Snytor Radios, to be acquired through the bid submitted by ~?otorola on ~iay 2, 1983 for the following reasons: 1. Ability to acquire state of the art technology at approximately 50% of list price; 2. Ability to control service, maintenance, modifications, and installation internally and not be subject to pri- orities established by an outside leasing agency; 3. Ability to create fleet uniformity for all public safety mobile units; 4. Ability to upgrade radios with added features in future years; 5. Desirability of developing equity in owned equipment. (Radios would be worth roughly 50% of their original purchase price after 10 years of use. Under the Hennepin County lease plan, leasee develops no equity). A cost analysis has been completed and it has been determined that purchasing our own radios would cost approximately $1,417 per radio, including service, over 10 years (including a $500 residual value allowance), compared to $1,900 to lease a radio with less capability from Hennepin County and with no residual value to the City of Richfield. 69hile the 1983 budget does not contain capital funds sufficient to cover the cost of this one time purchase, adequate funds are currently available through the Central Garage Revolving Fund and we are proposing these funds be loaned to the Department of Public Safety, to be repaid start- ing in late 1983, and during budget years 1984, X985 and 1986. Purchase of these radios would reduce the Rents/Leases charges to Public Safety for 1983 slightly, assuming that county radios were turned in during October, 1983. This purchase would also reduce the 1984 Rents/Leases costs by =s much as $4,000. The Department of Public Safety will budget $12,970 per year during 1984, 1985 and 1986 to retire the loan from the Central Garage Revolving Fund. Due to a clause in our bid specifications pay- ment will not be required until January 25, 1984, regardless of delivery date. It is the recommendation of the Public Safety Department, in which I concur, that the city council award the bid of May Council Letter No. 277 -3- August 8, 1983 • 2, 1983 to Motorola Communications and Electronics, Inc., for the purchase of 29 mobile radios at a total cost to the city of $38,903.

Gary W. Lawson, business manager, on behalf of the Church of the Assumption. These proposed activities are to be conducted in conjunction with the annual Fun Fest activities that the church plans to hold on August 13th and 14th. Proceeds from the raffle and bingo events will be used entirely to supplement • the operational costs of Assumption's grade school. The application indicates that Mr. Donald E1sen, and Mrs. Irene Perrino, both Richfield residents, along with Father James~Allen, are officers of the organization. Mr. Eugene Olejnicak is the designated gambling manager. None of these individuals have any known criminal history. The applicant has requested that both the gambling license fee and the required $14,004 fidelity bond be waived. These requests appear to be in conformance with the provisions of the city ordinance code which controls both bingo and raffles. Based upon the investigation conducted by the Public Safety Department, and through information suppl-ied by the applicant, and considering there have been no problems with this annual event in the past, there appears to be no basis for denial of the requested license. It is the recommendation of the Department of Public Safety, in which I concur, that the city council give favorable consideration to the gambling license requested by The Church of the Assumption, to be used in conjunction with their Fun Fest on August 13, and 14th, 1983.

As indicated in the attached letter, this activity would in- volve Richfield merchants renting space in the Legion parking lot to display and; or sell their merchandise. • Section 5.02 of the city ordinances, which governs this type of activity, has more direct application to carnivals and similar types of events. It includes a prohibition on sales of intoxicating liquor on the premises covered by the itinerant amusement license. Because the Legion Post is licensed for liquor sales, "premises" for the purposes of the requested license have been designated as the parking lot area devoted to the merchants street fair only. The license requires a fee of $107, which the Post has asked be waived, and a security deposit of $1,000. Further, the ordinance requ ices that additional information be submitted to the city prior t.o the date of the event, which the Legion. Post has agreed to do, as may be requested by city staff. Based cn the foregoi:.g information, it is recommended that the city council approve the license as set forth above, and waive the license fee.

Second Reading. On July 25, 1983, the city council gave first reading approval to a transitory ordinance relating to the vacation of a portion cf Lake Shore Drive. The public hearing and second reading were scheduled for August 8, 1983. Lake Shore Drive was realigned to intersect with Rae Drive as part of the 66th Street improvement project. With the realign- ment, a portion of old Lake Share Drive was no longer needed as right-of-way and was vacated. The vacated right-of-way was to be conveyed to the Lake Shore Drive condominium. However, in the process of preparing the documents to convey the property, a "gap" in the legal description was discovered (refer to map attached). Thus, an amendment with the proper legal description to the orig- inal transitory ordinance 16.87 must be adopted before title can be conveyed as intended by the city council. The legal description for the second reading has been modified slightly from the first reading for purposes of clarification. The land area described remains the same. A notice of__public hearing for second reading was published in the July 27, 1983 Richfield Sun. It is recommended that the city council held the scheduled public hearing, and after consideration of testimony, give second reading approval to this transitory ordinance amendment to permit the conveyance of property to the Lake Shore Drive condominium.

Morgan, Jr~ Acting City Manager TAM/eja • CITY OF RICHFIELD, 1~IINNESOTA ~ t D ~,+ • Office of City `Manager Council Letter I~io . 27 ~J Agenda August 8, 1983 The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Richf field Counc i1 rlembers Subject: Approval of Minutes, Tabulation of Bids and Award of Contract for Air Warning Sirens and Related rr;ork On July 12, 1983, the city opened bids for Phase III of the Air-Warning Siren Improvement Project, which is a part of the Emergency Services Division operation of the Department of Public Safety. The bid specifications requested the installation of one additional air-warning siren, the rehabilitation and relocation of two existing sirens, and the replacement of two cracked poles on • existing air-warning sirens at their present locations. Two bids were received, as noted in the attached bid tabula- tion form, based on the project specifications. The new siren proposed under the bid submitted by Tommy's Firehouse Associates does not meet specification established by the city. Therefore, it is recommended that the bid for this project be awarded to Electric Service Company, which has submitted a compliant bid fir. a total amount of $24,442. Funds for this project are included in the 1983 Public Safety Department budget, and the city has received notification of project approval with reimbursement by the federal government. In addition to this year's portion of the siren improvement project, members of the council may recall the problems that are being experienced by a number of residents in the area of Adams Hill Park with regard to the siren located to service that area. Because of the age of the siren, we have had a number of mechanical problems with this siren installation. Additionally, the location of the siren itself and the style of the siren instrument are creat- ing noise complaints from neighbors located directly adjacent to the siren installation. Therefore, it is recommended that this par- ticular siren be replaced with a new siren that has recently been introduced into the market by the Federal Sign and Signal Corpor- ation. The design of this siren, is such that the projection of tone should create less of a noise problem for the residents immed- iately adjacent to the siren location, while at the same time pro- jecting adequate warring signals for the area covered by this siren installation. Council Letter No. 270 -2- August 8, 1983 The Public Safety Department has negotiated a price of $8,865 with Tommy's Fire House Associates of Rochester, MN for the in- stallation of this siren. This is the only authorized federal dealer serving our area at this time, and therefore, t'r~e only price received for this particular siren instrument. Funds are also available for this particular siren replacement in the Public Safety Department budget for the current year and the re- quired authorization from the Federal Government has been received for this expenditure. The Federal Government will provide reim- bursement in an amount of 75~ of the total cost of this replacement installation. I~~~,~~~tfully submitted, Thomas A.
