The City Council awarded the contract on August 4, 1999 to Parnum Paving, Inc., contractor, in the amount of $308,100 and authorized additional work to ensure that all State funds would be expended for the project. Staff intended to issue a change order to extend the limits of the project on Grove Avenue from Bush Street to Pine Street. However, a water line (scheduled for replacement) had not yet been installed. Staff therefore chose the second priority location (identified in the August 4, 1999 City Council agenda report) and issued a change order for the rehabilitation of Oak Street from Low Gap Road to Ruddock Avenue. The work of the contract was completed by the contractor in substantial conformance with the approved plans and specifications on November 12, 1999. The final contract cost based on actual quantities constructed and approved change orders is $365,607. Final payment of the 10 percent retention in the amount of $36,560.70 will be made to the contractor after 35 days from the date the Notice of Completion is filed with the County Recorder. RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1. Accept the work as complete; 2. Direct the City Clerk to file the Notice of Completion with the County Recorder for Urban Collector Rehabilitation Project, Specification No. 99-05. ALTERNATIVE COUNCIL POLICY OPTIONS: None.

Notary Public in and for the County of Mendocino, State of California ITEM NO. 5c DATE: December 1, 1999 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE EXPANSION OF CHICO SCRAP METAL PURCHASE ORDER TO $25,000 FOR SCRAP METAL REMOVAL SERVICES SUMMARY: Since January 1999, Chico Scrap Metal has provided for the collection and removal of scrap metal from the Solid Waste Disposal Site (Site). The current approved budget allows up to $5,000 for scrap metal removal. This year there has been a substantial increase in the volume of scrap metal delivered to the Site, such that actual costs will approximate $25,000. Fees paid by scrap metal depositors at the disposal site cover the costs of removal. Thus the increased expenditure will be offset by revenues. Staff is requesting Council authorization to expand the existing purchase order to accommodate the increased costs. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize expansion of the purchase order to Chico Scrap Metal from $5,000 to $25,000 to accommodate increased scrap metal disposal costs at the disposal site. ALTERNATIVE COUNCIL POLICY OPTIONS: Determine other method of disposal is more appropriate and provide direction to staff.

Flad, Assistant City Manager Homeless Shelter Crisis Update December 1, 1999 Since the City Council's adoption of the Homeless Shelter Crisis Resolution on November 18, 1999 staff has been working with County staff and the Ford Street Program in an effort to locate a feasible site for both a temporary and permanent homeless shelter. The following "Worksheet" lists the 45 sites that have been researched and considered during the past two weeks by the City of Ukiah, County of Mendocino and Ford Street program staff. As you can see, the vast majority of sites that have been reviewed by staff have not worked out for one reason or another. While several sites still have potential, our list of prospective facilities is diminishing rapidly. At this point, the Yokayo Market and the Grange remain our best potential alternatives. Both of these facilities are currently involved in negotiations for sale, but have not completely ruled out leasing the property on a month-to-month basis in the interim. Staff expects a determination of feasibility on these two sites within the next 10 days. In addition to permanent structures, staff is also exploring the option of mobile or temporary structures. Ukiah Fire Department Staff continues to search for large tents, beds, cots, bedding and sleeping bags and has had some success. While most of the equipment is "free", the cost of delivery of these large items could be considerable. Staff will explore the possibility of procuring donated delivery from local shipping service providers as soon as more information is received. Staff has inventoried a number of potential sites that might provide space and ancillary services to a mobile/portable temporary homeless shelter. Anton Stadium and the swimming pool locker facilities could provide adequate space for showers, restrooms, some housing and large tents. Of these truly temporary facilities, only the Pavilion in the Plaza is large enough to meet the projected shelter need. If tent material were attached to the sides of the Pavilion and heating were provided, the Pavilion has the needed electrical, lighting and restroom facilities. When compared to other alternatives, the Pavilion is also in a better location. Staff continues to work on this project everyday and is in continuous contact with the County and Ford Street in an effort to develop an effective solution. The attached "worksheet" will continue to be updated as additional information is received.
