repayment be made by those using the service, not the property owners .

A communication from the Department of Justice summarized the basic
ideas of a proposal to establish a crime prevention program in Ukiah

Department of Justice who reviewed the intent of the program and
requested city endorsement. The program is designed to increase
public awareness with the intent of cutting the crime rate. Mr.
Hulin stated community participation and involvement are an important
part of the program. The current concept is that crime has the
edge because of lack of community support. Subject program is being_
taken into the rural areas . Ukiah wc-is chosen not because of its
high crime rate, but for its being one of the cooperative and alert
departments in California. Mr. IIulin stated the State provides
personnel and resources working jointly with local law enforcement
and a citizen committee. -

DISCUSSION OF ENGINEERING APPRAISAL
OF CITY ELECTRIC SYSTEM
Councilman Feibusch stated his -request made several weeks ago for
subject appraisal was not intended to be in in depth study to the
extent proposed in the information submitted to the Council .
Councilman Feibusch stated his reason for asking for an appraisal was
to determine what condition the City' s electrical distribution
system is in. We need to know the physical condition of the system
before we can decide whether or not to go into alterations of the
system. A dollar appraisal of our system showing how we can weigh
the two against each other would be helpful . If the system is lacking
we should get rid of it.
City Manager asked if the question is a determination of whether or
not our system is a viable operating system and consideration to be
given to generating our own system but only if it warrants .
Councilman I{'eibusch indicated this was his thinking.
Councilman Brannon stated in his opinion what we are getting to is
a facility study in terms of economics . He stated there is no limi
to our system and he is interested in" looking at the numbers .
Mayor_ Wood indicated that the Public Works Director could give a
current report on the inventory of our system.
On a motion by Councilman Feibusch, seconded by Councilman Brannon
it was unanimously carried to carry over further discussion of the
electric system appraisal to the work session October 26tH.
