The floodway is where the water is likely to be deepest and fastest during a flood. It is the area of the floodplain that should be kept free of obstructions to allow floodwaters to move downstream. Placing fill or buildings in a floodway may block the flow of water and increase flood heights. SPH Associates (Ukiah's Engineering Design Consultant on WTP Improvement Project) contacted FEMA's Flood Insurance and Mitigation Division in Oakland regarding FEMA's floodway regulations. According to FEMA, the City must undertake a hydrological study to determine the effect of the existing plant and plant expansion on the floodway and submit a report to FEMA. SPH Associates has submitted a change order for the additional cost of the FEMA Floodway Study in the amount of $17,775. Failure to satisfactorily resolve this issue with FEMA could result in the loss of FEMA flood insurance for the City of Ukiah jeopardizing plant facilities. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve amendment to 2002/2003 budget increasing expenditures in account #820-3908-250-000 by $17,775 for required FEMA Floodway Study.

DATE: November 6_ 2002 REPORT SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION OF THE CITY MANAGER TO NEGOTIATE AND ENTER INTO A PROFESSIONAL CONSULTING SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH BROWN AND CALDWELL ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERS AND CONSULTANTS TO PROVIDE DESIGN SERVICES AND PREPARE CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS FOR THE CITY OF UKIAH'S WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT IMPROVEMENT PROJECT SUMMARY: Proposals to provide engineering design services and prepare construction documents for the City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) improvement project were solicited from 21 engineering firms. This report outlines the results of that solicitation. The City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) is allowed to operate under a permit issued by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, North Coast Region (NCRWQCB). Among other restrictions and requirements, the permit defines limits to various constituents of effluent discharge. As required under conditions of the permit, whenever a publicly owned wastewater treatment plant will reach capacity within four years, a technical report must be submitted to the Regional Water Board showing how flow volumes will be prevented from exceeding capacity, or how capacity will be increased. A preliminary assessment of the WWTP capacity issues was completed and a report submitted to NCRWQCB in November 2000. Extensive improvements to the WWTP are needed to ensure compliance with the operating permit discharge requirements. A Request for Proposals (RFP) for Specialized Design Services and Preparation of Construction Documents for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project was sent to 21 engineering consulting firms in March 2002. Three consulting engineering firms submitted qualified proposals to provide design services and preparation of construction documents for the City of Ukiah WWTP Improvement Project. (Continued on page 2) RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and enter into a Professional Consulting Services Agreement with Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants for design services and preparation of construction documents for the City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project. ALTERNATIVE COUNCIL POLICY OPTIONS: 1) Reject all proposals and reissue the request for proposals.

Analysis of the WWTP data indicates failure to meet the permit requirements was due to three factors: 1) increasing influent flow into the WWTP, 2) age-related WWTP capacity issues, and 3) WWTP design problems. Of these three factors, the two, which are plant related, are discussed below. Age-related Capacity Issues Most of the original plant facilities completed in 1958 are still in use. The headworks, primary sedimentation tanks, one of the trickling filters and the two digesters are 44 years old. The age of the plant increases the amount of maintenance and downtime needed for repairs and affects plant performance. The sludge pumping system on the sedimentation tanks is outdated and performs poorly, which in turn affects the performance of the sludge digesters. Integral to the overall treatment process, the two sludge digesters and their appurtenant equipment have numerous capacity, performance, structural, and operational issues. Digester performance is limited by the lack of insulation, poor mixing, and poor solids removal upstream. A key contributing cause to exceeding the discharge permit is the use of fixed film reactors (i.e. the trickling filter and biological tower) as the sole biological treatment process unit in the liquid treatment train. Fixed film reactors have long been known to produce solids that flocculate poorly. The effluent is turbid with high concentrations of suspended solids which overloads the downstream processes, the advanced wastewater treatment (AWT) plant and chlorine pipe contactor. Design Problems Design problems in critical areas of the plant also limit the capacity of the plant. The existing headworks do not remove plastics and other inert objects and consequently do not protect downstream treatment units and mechanical equipment. Sludge from the primary sedimentation tanks is currently pumped from the tanks to the sludge sump using airlift pumps. The airlift pumps entrain significant amounts of water with the sludge, which is then pumped to the digesters, reducing their capacity. The distribution channels to the secondary sedimentation tanks do not distribute the flow equally to each of the tanks. This causes uneven solids loading in the tanks, reducing the total sedimentation capacity of the tanks. Future Capacity Issues In addition to present plant capacity issues, there are also upcoming discharge permit issues and Authorization of the City Manager to Negotiate and Enter into a Professional Consulting Services Agreement with Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants to Provide Design Services and Prepare Construction Documents for the City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project October 16, 2002 Page 3 of 10 Ukiah Valley Sanitation District (UVSD) and solids disposal issues. Future capacity concerns include: 1. Possible annexation of developments currently outside UVSD 2. Higher influent BOD and non filterable residue (NFR) loading from commercial and industrial customers 3. Reduction or elimination of effluent discharge to the Russian River 4. Increased septage discharge to the WWTP 5. Need to upgrade sludge biosolids from Class B to Class A to allow use as compost 6. Reclaimed water use requirement Overview of the Design Proposals A schematic of Ukiah's current treatment process is shown in Figure 1 (Attachment #1). Plant layouts for each engineering firm's proposed designs for treatment plant improvements are shown in Figures 2 - 4 (Attachment #2). The design proposals submitted by Kennedy/Jenks and Winzler & Kelly are similar in most of the key process areas, the exception being in secondary treatment and the production of Class A biosolids. Because the proposals are similar, the design features of the two proposals will be described together. Kennedy/Jenks and Winzler & Kelly Design Proposals 1. Preliminary and Primary Treatment The design proposals for Kennedy/Jenks and Winzler & Kelly are similar for the preliminary and primary treatment processes. New headworks would be constructed next to the existing primary clarifiers. Self-cleaning mechanical screens and a grit removal system would be added. The primary clarifiers would be rehabilitated and expanded and the biological filtration units in the secondary treatment would also be rehabilitated. 2. Secondary Treatment The biggest difference between these two proposals is in the improvements to the secondary treatment system. Winzler & Kelly propose simply rehabilitating and expanding the existing facilities. Kennedy/Jenks proposal is significantly different. They propose adding a multi- compartment solids contact aeration tank to improve solids removal, converting the secondary clarifier tanks to a chlorine contact chamber and building three, new circular secondary clarifiers. 3. Solids Treatment Both firms would add a sludge holding tank and sludge thickener. Winzler & Kelly propose rehabilitating the existing digesters and adding a sludge pasteurization unit to produce Class A biosolids. Kennedy/Jenks would build a new, third digester to function as a thermophilic (operate at 135 F) digester and rehabilitate the existing two mesophilic (operate at 95 F) digesters to produce Class A biosolids. Authorization of the City Manager to Negotiate and Enter into a Professional Consulting Services Agreement with Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants to Provide Design Services and Prepare Construction Documents for the City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project October 16, 2002 Page 4 of 10 4. Disinfection Both firms propose using sodium hypochlorite instead of chlorine gas, which is currently used for disinfection, to eliminate the safety and storage issues associated with chlorine gas. In addition to sodium hypochlorite, Kennedy/Jenks would replace chlorination of AVVT effluent with ultraviolet (UV) disinfection. 5. Advanced Waste Treatment (AWT) Winzler & Kelly would repair both the chlorine contact basins and backwash basins for the AVVT. Kennedy/Jenks proposes building new backwash basins and repairing only the chlorine contact basins. The old backwash basins would be removed and replaced with three, new secondary clarifiers. Brown and Caldwell Design Proposal 1. Preliminary and Primary Treatment Brown and Caldwell's proposal is significantly different from those of Kennedy/Jenks and Winzler & Kelly. Instead of rehabilitating a 44-year old primary clarifier, Brown and Caldwell propose converting the newer secondary clarifier to a primary clarifier and converting the primary clarifier to two solids contact aeration tanks. New headworks would be built next to the new primary clarifier moving the headworks closer to the existing sewer line coming into the plant and to the proposed westside relief sewer. Self-cleaning mechanical screens and a grit removal system would be added. 2. Secondary Treatment The biological filtration units would be rehabilitated. Two, new circular secondary clarifiers would be built to replace the current secondary clarifier that will be converted to a primary clarifier. The existing secondary clarifier has significant design deficiencies that preclude its continued use. The existing secondary clarifiers use scraper sludge removal (a.k.a. chain and flight) rather than the suction sludge removal necessary for the use with a trickling filter / solids contact aeration (TF/SC) process. In addition, the sludge hoppers are located at the influent end of the clarifier. Density currents in the secondary clarifier carry the sludge to the effluent end. The sludge has to be scraped to the influent end for disposal, stirring up the settled sludge and causing excessive loss of effluent suspended solids. This has been an ongoing problem with the secondary clarifiers, which has adversely affected all downstream processes. 3. Solids Treatment The existing digesters would be rehabilitated. The missing insulation would be replaced and new covers installed. As in the Kennedy/Jenks and Winzler & Kelly proposals, Brown and Caldwell would also add a sludge thickening facility. This reduces the volume of sludge fed to the digesters and improves the sludge stabilization process. Authorization of the City Manager to Negotiate and Enter into a Professional Consulting Services Agreement with Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants to Provide Design Services and Prepare Construction Documents for the City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project October 16, 2002 Page 5 of 10 With improved solids removal upstream and the sludge thickening facility, Brown and Caldwell believes no additional digester capacity will be needed. The existing digesters and sludge lagoon can be used to achieve Class A biosolids without the need to add digesters or pasteurization equipment. 4. Disinfection Needed repairs would be made to the chlorination system. The improved solids removal provided upstream by the TF/SC process and new secondary clarifiers would significantly reduce solid settling in the chlorine pipe contactor. And the cleaning and coliform problems caused by solids in the chlorine pipe contactor would also be significantly reduced. 5. Advanced Waste Treatment Repairs and improvements would be made to both the AWT backwash basins and chlorine contact basins. The Evaluation Process Proposals were received from three engineering design firms. Public Utilities assembled a committee of five evaluators including representatives of the City of Ukiah Public Works and Public Utilities departments and two Public Works managers from nearby communities. The team reviewed and ranked each proposal based on evaluation criteria specified in the Request for Proposal document. The criteria used to evaluate each proposal included: 1. Thoroughness of consultant's proposed technical approach towards design and specification of the proposed improvements 2. Direct experience of the project manager and assistant project manager and key process and support engineers and designers assigned to the project 3. Understanding of potential problems and methods and procedures for resolving these problems throughout design, construction, startup, and operating phases of the project 4. Past performance on similar projects including engineering design skills and innovative solutions to optimizing plant performance Copies of the proposal evaluation forms used by the evaluation committee are attached to this report (Attachment #3). Results of the Evaluation Committee The proposal evaluation committee met on August 1,2002 to present and discuss the results of their individual evaluations. The evaluation results for the three proposals along with the committee recommendation for award of the contract were submitted to the Director of Public Utilities. Brown and Caldwell received the highest evaluation score. Of the three proposals, the proposal from Brown and Caldwell in the opinion of the evaluation committee, presented the most innovative and effective design to ensure compliance of Ukiah's wastewater treatment plant with the NCRWQCB discharge permit.

The site visits and reference checks for Brown and Caldwell was as follows. Brown and Caldwell Site Visits Plants designed by Brown and Caldwell either completed or currently under construction for the Cities of Eureka, Hayward, and Dublin/San Ramon were toured and the staffs were interviewed. The plant in Eureka is the world's first treatment plant designed around the trickling filter/solids contact aerator (TF/SC) biological process and is very similar to the proposed design for Ukiah. TF/SC plants operate consistently and reliably with minimal staff and process adjustments. This results in significant savings over the life of the plant (40 to 50 years) in personnel, operating, and maintenance costs. The Utilities Operations Manager for Eureka rated Brown and Caldwell's performance as excellent in every category on the reference check evaluation sheet. He considers Eureka's plant to be well engineered and designed and extremely easy to manage. The plant, with a 5.2 million gallons per day (MGD) average daily wet weather flow (ADWF) processing capacity (Ukiah is at 2.8 MGD), is operated with only one, eight-hour shift per day. Operating staff leaves the entire plant unattended for 16 hours each day. Both Hayward and Dublin/San Ramon also gave very high marks to Brown and Caldwell. Comments from Dublin/San Ramon included, "Excellent client commitment", "Extremely Iow percentage of change Authorization of the City Manager to Negotiate and Enter into a Professional Consulting Services Agreement with Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants to Provide Design Services and Prepare Construction Documents for the City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project October 16, 2002 Page 7 of 10 orders, less than 4/o/,, /~, zo, "Generous with time even before the project started" and "Would definitely hire again". Some of Hayward's comments were, "Brown and Caldwell are a cut above their competitors", and "They possess expertise with an integrated plant approach and in the TF/SC process". Brown and Caldwell first provided wastewater treatment services to the City of Ukiah in the mid 1950's. Planning studies and design services performed by Brown and Caldwell for the City culminated in the construction and commissioning in 1958 of the original wastewater treatment plant at the site of the existing facilities. The design of that portion of the plant ingeniously included the provision for converting the original secondary clarifier to a second primary clarifier needed for the eventual expansion of the facilities, which occurred in 1983. This ingenuity, a trademark of Brown and Caldwell's, streamlined these expansion efforts and saved the City considerable time and money. Evaluation Committee Recommendation The evaluation committee noted important differences in the proposals in three key areas: 1) plant design concepts, 2) qualifications of staff assigned to the project, 3) past performance. Plant Design Concepts Winzler & Kelly's design basically just repairs, rehabilitates, and expands existing facilities. Probably the most interesting aspect of the design is the conversion of the sludge lagoons to wetlands, though the practicality and benefits are questionable. Reed beds in wetlands are generally loaded at 25 gallons of digested sludge per square-foot per year. Ukiah's WWTP generates 6.21 million gallons of digested sludge per year. At 25 gallons per square-foot, over 3,500 acres of wetlands would be required to process the yearly production of digested sludge. Kennedy/Jenks design is very similar to Winzler & Kelly in the front-end of the process. In the secondary treatment process, Kennedy/Jenks proposes adding a multi-chambered solids contact aeration (SCA) tank, but provides no details regarding the air supply to the tank. The multi-chambered SCA tank is proposed to allow the unit to provide nutrient removal capabilities if needed at some future time. However, designing a single facility for two completely different functions will likely result in it not functioning well for either purpose. There has been no indication from the NCRWQCB that nutrient removal will be required any time soon. They also propose abandoning a relatively new secondary clarifier while rehabilitating a 44-year old primary clarifier. The secondary clarifier would be converted to a chlorine contact chamber, which means all of the mechanical and electrical equipment would be removed. Since the secondary clarifier was never designed for use as a chlorination facility, it's doubtful it can be retrofitted to function effectively as such. Presumably, the existing chlorination facility designed by Kennedy/Jenks in 1983 would be decommissioned. The addition of an ultraviolet disinfection facility for the AWT effluent is also proposed. Kennedy/Jenks also propose removing the two AWT backwash basins built as part of their 1995 plant improvement project and building three, new circular secondary clarifiers. In addition, they would add a third digester, plus a sludge holding tank and a gravity belt thickener. Authorization of the City Manager to Negotiate and Enter into a Professional Consulting Services Agreement with Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants to Provide Design Services and Prepare Construction Documents for the City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project October 16, 2002 Page 8 of 10 The committee believes that the Brown and Caldwell design made the best use of the existing facilities, which in turn minimizes the need to build additional facilities. They propose converting the old primary clarifier to solids contact aeration tanks and converting the newer, secondary clarifier into the primary clarifier. Two new circular secondary clarifiers would be built and a sludge thickening facility added. With improved solids removal upstream and the sludge thickening facility, Brown and Caldwell believes no additional digesters will be needed. The existing digesters and sludge lagoon can be used to achieve Class A biosolids without the need to add digesters. Brown and Caldwell's approach to plant design is to first evaluate the existing facility, optimize the equipment that is already there, reevaluate the plant, and then add only the equipment that is necessary to achieve the discharge goals. Staff Qualifications Winzler & Kelly rely heavily on the use of sub consultants, which suggests a lack of breadth and depth in their personnel for a wastewater treatment plant improvement project of this size. The extensive distribution of tasks to numerous sub consultants could create problems in communication and coordination of activities resulting in mistakes and delays. The three Winzler & Kelly team leaders, one of whom also has to function as the program manager, have a total of 52 years of engineering experience with more experience in water treatment plants than wastewater treatment plants. Kennedy/Jenks split their staff assignments into two basic teams, a preliminary design team and a design and construction team. Their more experienced engineers are used only on the preliminary design team. Only two engineers are assigned as the lead design engineers with a total of only 18 years of experience. To what extent the more experienced preliminary design team would be involved in the project is not known. According the Kennedy/Jenks, "Engineering Fee Estimate", 45% of the total engineering hours of the project are at the Engineer level, which includes both lead design engineers. Brown and Caldwell has assigned the most experienced and knowledgeable engineers on their staff to direct four major design areas: 1) influent pumping and preliminary treatment, 2) primary and secondary treatment, 3) solids treatment, and 4) AWT, reclamation, and disinfection. These four staff members have a total of 131 years of engineering experience and are nationally recognized experts in their areas of wastewater treatment plant design. Brown and Caldwell's proposed project manager holds a doctorate in environmental engineering and has over 25 years of experience in the wastewater treatment profession. Only Brown and Caldwell specified the percentage of time each of their staff would be working on Ukiah's wastewater treatment plant improvement project. Their team organization ensures clear lines of communication and authority and delineates responsibility for each component of the Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project. Project team organization charts for each proposal are attached to this report (Attachment #5). On the basis of the design proposal evaluations and past performance with wastewater treatment plant design projects, the evaluation committee recommends that Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants be awarded the contract for design services and preparation of construction documents for the City of Ukiah Wastewater Treatment Improvement Project. The strengths evident to the evaluation committee in Brown and Caldwell's proposal are: Authorization of the City Manager to Negotiate and Enter into a Professional Consulting Services Agreement with Brown and Caldwell Environmental Engineers and Consultants to Provide Design Services and Prepare Construction Documents for the City of Ukiah's Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvement Project October 16, 2002 Page 9 of 10 , . , A science-based approach to plant design that relies upon state-of-the-art process knowledge, extensive process experience and a thorough assessment of current plant capabilities. Extensive use of software design programs developed at Brown and Caldwell that will be used to model the entire wastewater treatment process to optimize the design. Aggressively pursuing alternative funding from grant sources in addition to SRF funding, which comes with a lot of "strings attached". , Optimizing use of the existing concrete structures based on an assessment of design and remaining useful life. For example in their design proposal, all of the 45-year-old mechanical and electrical equipment from the primary clarifier will be removed and the concrete tank, which is still good, will serve as the tank for a new biological treatment process, the solids contact aerator. The newer, secondary clarifier will be converted to the primary clarifier, for which its design is better suited. , Unequaled expertise in designing TF/SC treatment plants. The cornerstone of increasing the plant's capacity to process suspended solids and BOD is the biological treatment process; the trickling filters and solids contact aerator (TF/SC). Brown and Caldwell invented the TF/SC process. 6. Comprehensive and detailed Quality Assurance/Quality Control program. , Detailed list of the 476 construction drawings to be included in the project deliverables, more than twice the amount in one proposal. The other proposal did not define the number of drawings it would deliver. Brown and Caldwell's proposal was the only one that included a detailed construction cost estimate, a detailed construction management plan, output examples of the design software that will be used to model the plant improvements, a detailed quality assurance/quality control plan for the project, and a detailed listed of 476 engineering drawings to ensure an accurate construction bid. The Brown and Caldwell proposal demonstrated an in-depth understanding of the unique biochemical and physical processes at work in each area of a wastewater treatment plant. The increasingly restrictive discharge requirements mandated by the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board requires more than a civil engineering approach to plant design. A fundamental knowledge of the biochemistry involved is essential in designing a plant that will efficiently and effectively remove organic material from the waste stream entering the plant under widely varying operational conditions that exist in Ukiah throughout the year. It is evident from reviewing the resumes for the proposed project team, that Brown and Caldwell's staff has the technical expertise to design a wastewater treatment plant that is not only structurally and hydraulically correct but also correct based on individual process requirements. It is this unique and extensive technical expertise that clearly differentiates their proposal from the others. Proof of the soundness of Brown and Caldwell's approach to wastewater treatment design was obtained firsthand during plant site visits made by evaluation committee members.

Herma,q ancl Associates Michael Willis ^rchitecl~ D-2 ITEM NO. 6d DATE: November 6, 2002 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO RESOLUTION APPROVING APPLICATION FOR CDBG PLANNING AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE GRANT ON BEHALF OF PLOWSHARES At the October 16 meeting the City Council adopted a resolution approving an application to the State Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) for a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) to assist Plowshares Peace and Justice Center in determining the feasibility of relocating from its current location on Luce Street and expanding its facility. HCD has since requested a language change in the Resolution to clarify the cash match requirement. Section 3 of the original Resolution (Attachment #1) states that the City will use in-kind funds and funds provided by Plowshares to meet the 25% cash match requirement of $8,750. HCD has indicated the current language should indicate the City is responsible for the cash match even though the sub-recipient of the grant (Plowshares) reimburses the City for the match. Provided for the Council is an amended resolution incorporating the language recommended by HCD. The revision is highlighted in bold and states simply that the City Council approves the use of $8,750 to meet the cash match requirement. In-kind services provided by City and Plowshares staff to perform specific planning tasks defined in the grant, may still be used to offset up to $7,000 of the $8,750. The remaining $1,750, which is the allocated amount for grant administration must be in cash. Staff has spoken with Plowshares Director, Mary Buckley, who has indicated the $1,750will be paid by Plowshares. As the amendment to previous resolution is required by HCD in order for the application to proceed, staff is recommending approval. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve amended Resolution as provided in Attachment #2 ALTERNATIVE COUNCIL POLICY OPTIONS: 1. Determine amendment to previous resolution requires further consideration and remand to staff with direction. 2. Determine approval of amendment is inappropriate and do not move to approve.

IN THE AMOUNT OF $11,480 FOR CLASS 2 ASBESTOS WORK AT 410 WAUGH LANE, UKIAH, SPECIFICATION 02-28 SUMMARY: Submitted for the City Council's consideration and action is staff's recommendation that a construction contract be awarded to AFM Environmental Inc. in the amount of $11,480 for Class 2 asbestos work at 410 Waugh Lane, Ukiah, Specification No. 02-28. Compensation for the performance of the work will be based on a lump sum price bid for the work of the Contract. Work will be performed at the house located on City of Ukiah property at the northeast corner of Waugh Lane and Talmage Road. BACKGROUND: In response to the City's Request for Bids, three (3) prospective bidders attended the mandatory pre-bid job walk which was conducted at the site on Wednesday October 24, 2002. Because the work site is an abandoned structure that is secured against entry, it was necessary to escort the potential bidders through the structure so all bidders were familiar with the job site conditions as required by the Contract Documents. As noted in the Notice to Bidders, the pre-bid job walk was mandatory and any bid received from a bidder who did not attend the mandatory pre-bid job walk would not be considered. All three bidders who attended the pre-bid job walk submitted bids. The Notice to Bidders was advertised and noticed in accordance with the City's Informal Bid Process. The Notice was mailed to all Contractors on file with the City Clerk who are certified to perform Class 2 asbestos work. The Notice to Bidders was also published two times in the Ukiah Daily Journal within the time frames required by law and it was mailed to the Builders' Exchanges having indicated an interest in receiving Notices from the City of Ukiah. (continued on page 2) RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1. Award a Construction Contract to AFM Environmental, Inc. in the amount of $11,480 for Class 2 Asbestos Work at 410 Waugh Lane, Ukiah, Specification No. 02-28. Compensation for the performance of the work will be based on a lump sum price bid. 2. Authorize the Mayor to execute the Construction Contract on behalf of the City.

Notice to Bidders anagerCandace Horsley, Page 2 November 6, 2002 Award Construction Contract to AFM Environmental, Inc. for Class 2 Asbestos Work at 410 Waugh Lane, Ukiah, Specification No. 02-28 Class 2 asbestos work involves the removal and disposal of building materials containing asbestos fibers. In August of last year, onsite building materials that were suspected of containing asbestos were sampled by an asbestos consultant and were tested by Micro Analytical Laboratories. Positive results were detected in the floor tiles and the texture on the gypsum board wall and ceiling surfaces. The work of this contract will involve the removal and disposal of all gypsum board surfaces, the nine-inch square floor tiles, the flooring material in the bathroom and kitchen, and the carpet that is contaminated with materials containing asbestos. The work must be completed within 21 calendar days, the first day being the tenth day following the receipt of the Notice to Proceed with the work. After the Class 2 asbestos work is complete, the structure and site improvements will be demolished. The projected bid date for the demolition work is November 27, 2002. The removal of the asbestos containing materials and the demolition of the structure and site improvements have been budgeted in Account No. 699-3110-800-022 at the funding amount of $23,290. It is anticipated that the structure demolition work will cost in the range of $10,000 to $15,000. Additional funds may be necessary to complete the demolition work. The engineers cost estimate for the Class 2 asbestos work was $10,000 and it was based on a quote received in August of last year. Staff recommends award of the contract to AFM Environmental, Inc. for Class 2 asbestos work at 410 Waugh Lane.

However, funds for cable franchise renewal negotiations were not included in the Fiscal Year 2002-03 Budget to actually authorize the expenditure. Staff is now requesting a budget amendment from the General Reserve to increase expenditures in the 100.1920.250.000 account by $15,000. The additional $3,500 is being requested to cover any unforeseen expenditures, which may be incurred during the franchise renewal process. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve amendment increasing expenditures in Account # 100.1920.250.000 by $15,000 for cable franchise renewal negotiations. ALTERNATIVE COUNCIL POLICY OPTIONS: 1.

Staff has been assisted in this effort by the consulting firm of Communications Support Group (CSG) and its principal Mr. John Risk. CSG was selected by the County of Mendocino, who has been acting as lead agency for negotiations, after a formal Request For Proposals process and a series of interviews, in which the City of Ukiah participated. As the negotiating team has been unsuccessful in securing up front funds from Adelphia, a contract, with CSG has not been completed. Mr. Risk has provided advice and direction to the negotiating team from time to time, however, Adelphia steadfastly refuses to participate in the up front funding and negotiations have been stalled around this issue. County Counsel has given the opinion that Adelphia has a reasonable legal basis to deny the request for up front funding and any legal challenge to Adelphia on this issue could result in a lengthy and costly litigation with uncertain results. The City Attorney has reviewed the County Counsel's opinion and indicated he can find no reason to disagree. .(Continued on Pa~ RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve participation with Mendocino County, Willits, and Fort Bragg for City of Ukiah's share of consultant services for cable franchise renewal negotiations in an amount not to exceed $11,500.

Subscriber base and contractual cost breakdown summary sheet APPROVED' LD/ZIP1 Candace Horsley,~Cit~Manager Cablefranchise.asr · Excluding funds from Adelphia, staff has requested that CSG revise the level of services provided in its original proposal to reduce costs and more appropriately fit the budget of the four negotiating agencies. The proposal submitted by CSG for a total of $45,000, which is revised from the original proposal of $107,000, is provided for the Council's review as Attachment #1. The cost of the proposal is to be shared, based upon the number of subscribers in each jurisdiction, by all four public agencies. A summary of the number of subscribers in each jurisdiction, as provided by Adelphia, and each agency's related cost for the contract is provided in Attachmer~t #2. The City of Ukiah currently has 7,496 subscribers or 25.22% of the subscriber base which equates to $11,349.05 of the total $45,000 contract. The proposed cost sharing agreement with Mendocino County has been approved by the Board of Supervisors and the respective City Councils of Willits and Fort Bragg. Regardless of funding from Adelphia, staff believes the retention of expert consultant services is essential to successful negotiations because of the complexity of the issues to be resolved relative to the telecommunications industry. Staff has no expertise in this area, and many issues and rights, which could significantly benefit our citizens, the City, and our educational system, could be unknowingly excluded or waived without expert representation and advice. In such instances valuable dollars could be lost for such items as enhanced public and g0vemment access broadcasting and potential new revenue sources from items such as data transmission and fiber optics could be unknowingly excluded from the agreement, in addition, renewal negotiations will be time intensive and require a singular focus which will be difficult for staff to accomplish. For these reasons staff is recommending approval of the City of Ukiah's participation with Mendocino County, Willits, and Fort Bragg in an amount not to exceed $11,500, for the payment of cable franchise renewal consultant services with Communications Support Group. ~o 'ID0 (DC) 0 n, 0 ITEM NO: 8a DATE: November 6, 2002 AGENDA SUMMARY REPORT SUBJECT: INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCE PREZONING TWO PARCELS OF CITY- OWNED PROPERTY ADJACENT TO THE CITY LIMITS SUMMARY: Due to an error in the public noticing procedures, this project is not ready for the City Council's consideration at this time.

' - - 8 - WATER The purpose of this meeting is water, and to present information and discussion about water for today and tomorrow. Most Meadocino County, Water agencies, Cities, Tribes, Private and PNPs have a water shortage and "Water Rights" issues that are affecting currem and. future demands of these needs. Water for Mendocino County; currently come from, the Eel River PG&E power plant and Russ'mn River and Lake Mendocino, which are extremely limited, with the primary holder of these rights being Sonoma County. Other sources are small reservoirs, ground water extxacfions and springs and wells. The Eel River is an avaible resource for Mendocino County and can accommodate our water needs for today and tomorrow. We are the county of origin in which this river flows, with five tributaries to draw upon for water use. The Eel River is a designated as a wild and scenic river. Water may be appropriated for use inside the county upon approval of the State Depamnem of Water Resources. Redwood Valley County Water District is under state moratorium and purchases surplus water from the Russian River Flood Control District. It has no water fights of its own. This District took the responsibility, as lead agency for the Eel River ~rmter High Flow Preservation Project, with the ideal result being an overall County-Wide Agency to manage the resource. In 1998, with the assistance of John Pinches, Mary Hiatt and George Rau, the District approved and authorized submittal of the applications for grant funding of a Feasibility Study through the Department of Water Resources; and to appropriate water from the Eel River in Mendocino County, with the State Water Resources Control Board, for 56,000 A/F of water, and paid the permit fees. The District is also working with the Northern and Coastal California Water Bond Initiative Coalition and has submitted a water bond-funding request for this project. The coalition hopes to prepare a brief project description package that the coalition can support and the legislature and voters will approve for funding. The Eel River High Winter Flow Preservation Project has the possibilities to meet the needs of the County and Tribes for current and future water supplies for domestic, agriculture, industry, recreation, environmental, and community needs. The magnitude of this project will require the collective and cooperative efforts from the entire county community Packets given to persons attending this presentation includes useful information in understanding where we are today and perhaps a method of getting to where we want to be tomorrow. Post Office Box 399 · Redwood Valley, CA 95470 · (707) 485-0679 December 7, 2001 'Fo: Land and Water Users Within Redwood Valley County Water District Re: Right to Use Water fi-om Lake Mendocino Ladies and Gentlemen: The Redwood Valley County Water District (Redwood Valley) has since its formation been the subject of water right controversies and will continue to be so into the future. As the Board of Directors, we want you to have the same facts that are available to us so that you may properly interpret events and media articles. - History of Redwood Valley's right to use water, Fhe l~edwood Valley delivery system was constructed pursuant to a Bureau of Reclamation loan during the period of 1974 to 1976. Although no interest was charged on the agricultural component, interest was charged on the municipal component. A water right was applied for in 1972, but it was recognized that that water fight would only be available during the xwnter months, November through April, and that the winter time water right would not be usable during drought periods and the right was so limited when it was granted. As a result of these limitations, which were expected, the Redwood Valley Board went to the Russian River Flood Control and Water Conservation Improvement District (Improvement District) in 1972 and asked to utilize a portion of the 8,000 ac/ft available to the Improvement District. The hnprovement District contractually agreed to our use ora portion of the 8,000 ac/Pt so long as it was surplus to use within the primary service area located along the Russian River consisting of approximately 4,096 acres. The State Water Resources Control Board granted this authority in 1979. This 4,096 acres is the Place of Use authorized by the State Water Resources Control Board and many of these landowners are believed to also hold their own water rights, so there is some question of whether the full 8,000 ac/fi would be consumed within the area. In return, Redwood Valley agreed to pay a portion of the budget and costs of the Improvement District and has paid those costs since approximately 1975. It appeared to the Bureau of Reclamation and the Redwood Valley founders that water would be available under the 8,000 ac/ft for many years except in a long drought event. BOARD OF DIRECTOR:-~ Derek G. Ross Sanford A. Dwight Donald E. Butow William l,. fqowc Robert F. Parker MANAGER Keith W. Tiema,'m Obviously, if use within the Improvement District's Place of Use expanded ora drought event occurred, water would not be available. In that case, the plan was that water would be made available to Redwood Valley through a combination of two alternative methods. The first was the development of additional storage projects. Those storage projects were estimated to provide between 2,000 and 3,000 ac/ft of water. The storage projects were never developed because of difficulties in acquiring sites and because of the severe economic constraints upon the users within Redwood Valley, which have not even allowed them to repay sizeable portions of the Bureau loan The second or more promising means of providing water was a Pool Concept Agreement with Sonoma County. Sonoma County was building Warm Springs Reservoir and through an exchange, if Redwood Valley paid for parts of the Warm Springs Project, water could be reliably supplied to Redwood Valley. The Improvement District agreed, in the 1972 contract with Redwood Valley, to enter into such an agreement with Sonoma County which would benefit Redwood Valley. It, however~ refused to complete the contract. In 1980 the Improvement District took Redwood Valley to court. The Court entered a Stipulated Judgment that the hnprovement District was to enter into the Pool Concept Agreement. Between 1980 and 2001, the hnprovement District found various reasons not to enter into such an agreement even though Sonoma County drafted, offered and sub~.nitted such an agreement. An Environmental hnpact analysis was done in the late 1990's al the demand of Redwood Valley, and yet the Improvement District still continued to refuse to enter into such an agreement Why does the Improvement District refuse to enter into such an agreement? Prior to appra×im~telv 1909 the Jmnrnvement District refi~ed tc~ Enter intn .m~c.h ~n aoree~T~ent hec-.n~q~ it would mean that Redwood Vaiiey, which pays approximately $30,000 to $40,000 per year to the Improvement District would no longer pay the Improvement District but, instead, would pay the Sonoma County Water Agency, if tine full 8,000 ac/fit of the hnprovement District was being utilized. A further reason why the Improvement District indicated it refused to sign was that there was a requirement that the Improvement District measure the 8,000 ac/fl use within the 4,096 acres. This is not only a matter of measuring the amounts of water diverted from the river, but also the return flow back into the river. The 8,000 ac/fi is the amount of water which may be consumed or depleted from the river but is not the gross diverted amount. If a diverter pumps an ac/ft of water, a portion of the ac/ft returns to the river either in the form of groundwater or underflow recharge or surface wmer drainage and this return flow is not to be counted as "used" water. In late 1999, the hnprovement District began to cite a further basis for not signing the agreement with Sonoma. That basis was that the hnprovement District believed it had a County of Origin right and could obtain more than 8,000 ac/ft from Lake Mendocino, at almost no cost, and that the contract with Sonoma County would prevent that. The proposed Pool Contract with Sonoma County always provided that if Sonoma County ran short of water from Warm Springs and its Lake Mendocino water share, the Redwood Valley users under the contract with Sonoma County would curtail use in Mendocino County. (Redwood Valley has always viewed this as fair and equitable). Because Sonoma County has been far advanced in its efforts to develop water storage, their willingness to lend those supplies should not carry with it a foregoance of those supplies during the worst drought period. Until Sonoma's growth and demand for water increased substantially (estimated not before 2015), there would still be enough water to car%, Redwood Valley through the worst drought periods and in most normal years foE-many years after 2015. In 2000, the Improvement District indicated that it would not sign the Sonoma County contract and started to attempt to show that the full 8,000 ac/ft was being utilized within the Improvement District. The Improvement District's reason fo:-doing this was they wished to make applications for further water under the County of Origin right and effectively start a fight with Sonoma County. They also wished to charge Mendocino County landowners to pay for their County of Origin claims. Redwood Valley pointed out that under the 1980 Stipulated Judgment, the Improvement District was required to enter into the Pool Concept Agreement with Sonoma County. The Improvement District continues to refuse to do so. Unfortunately.. it is not known whether or not a Court will hold the Improvement District in contempt for refusing to sign the Pool Concept Agreement. Judges sometimes hesitate to require public officials to sign contracts if public officials are provided some discretion under the law. We may be required to find out the answer to this question. Adding to the uncertainty, it is not clear that the full 8,000 ac/fi of depletion is being utilized. The Improvement District has solicited contracts from acreage far outside the 4,096 acres and has purported to provide a right to contract, not on the basis of depletion but on the basis of the total amounts diverted, in order to support its County of Origin claim that more water is required. In October, 2001, Red~vood Valley received a bill frOlTl the Improvement District for the amo~nt c~fwa~ter it divert, ed from Lake Mendocino in the preceding twelve months. The improvement District wishes us to pay approximately $ i2 per ac/ft even though they have publicly, and to the State Water Resources Control Board, contended that the full 8,000 ac/ft is being used below Lake Mendocino by other landowners. Redwood Valley does not know if this is true or untrue and, therefore, must ask the question of whether or not we are using waters of Sonoma County or of the Improvement District, and who should receive our payment In addition, it was clearly a term of the Stipulated Judgment that our obligation to pay was conditioned on the Improvement District entering into the Pool Concept Agreement with Sonoma County, and it has not done so. The Board of Redwood Valley has unanimously elected to place the money in"~m interest-bearing impound account until the questions of whether the 8,000 ac/Pt of the hnprovement District are being fully utilized, and whether the money should instead be paid to Sonoma County, are resolved. Under Sonoma County's proposed contract which has not been executed by the Improvement District, the water rate would be in the neighborhood of $35 to $37 per ac/ft instead of the $12 billed by the Improvement District and thus resolution of this question carries financial costs for Redwood Valley. is it possible that xvater will be shut off to Domestic and Agricultural customers within the Redwood Valle)'? The answer is that it is possible but not probable in the short mn. In the long run or in a prolonged drought, we must find new water storage facilities. In a strict legal sense, we are not to use water unless we i~ave water available under the 8,000 ac/fl of the Improvement District or unless Sonoma County has executed a contract with the Improvement District providing excess water fi-om Warm Springs Dam. With the cun-ent status of the matter, the State Water Resources Control Board theoretically could find that Redwood Valley is not to pump from Lake Mendocino. We do not think this is likely in the short r-un for three reasons: Sonoma County has no desire to see Redwood Valley dried up and they have been extremely patient up to now despite the abuse heaped on them by the Improvement District There is no sign that their patience is ending. The State Board understands that the Improvement District is disorganized and that it does not know whether or not the full 8,000 ac/Pt is being utilized. A proper metering and method of calculating true depletion has to be developed and applied and this will probably require several years. The Improvement District depends on the payments from Redwood Valley to function. It is now attempting to force downstream users into contracts into which they will pay monies to the Improvement District. It is unclear that those parties will move to the fi-ont in a prompt fashion to pick up the approximate $40,000 not paid by Redwood Valley. The Improvement District, of course, can t~, to shut off the Redwood Valley use, but cannot effectively litigate or arbitrate for an order shutting off our water since they have not complied with the terms of the Stipulated Judgment and have no competent evidence that the 8,ooc~ ac/~ is being utilized in other areas. In short_, it is theoretically possible that water cou!d be ter:nin~ed and this ~"~o'-"~'~s more likely during a drought but it is unlikely untii other events occur, such as shortages in Sonoma County. Domestic users within Redwood Valley should understand that Sonoma County has already expressed that it has no interest in shutting off domestic use in Redwood Valley and because our domestic system can be isolated, we think there is little chance ora State Water Resources Control Board order ora Court order requMng termination of domestic se~w'ice. What is your Board of Directors doing about the water rights problem? We continue to attempt to reason with the Improvement District asking that they reconsider their decision to reject Sonoma County's offered contract and reconsider whether an attempt to obt ai n part of Sonoma County' s water free under a County of Origin claim can ever succeed. Redwood Valley has asked that Sonoma County meet with Redwood Valley and reconsider their previous position that any water supply contract would have to be entered into by the Improvement District on behalf of Redwood Valley. We believe that other water service entities within Mendocino County who have witnessed the hnprovement District's behavior will also be participating in these discussions. Although we are not optimistic that Sonoma County will agree to contract directly with the water purveyors within the County, rather than the Improvement District. we know that Sonoma County wants the cooperation of Mendocino County on new projects, which requires that the principal agencies within Mendocino County are in agreement. In 1974 and again in 1992, 'Redwood Valley did an extensive investigation of reservoir sites. All of these sites are expensive to develop and could raise water prices by $200 to $350 per acre foot per year until the projects are paid off. We have informed the Bureau of Reclamation that if these costs must be incurred to maintain a viable water system, payments upon the Bureau loan cannot be made. The Bureau of Reclamation has been quite patient and understanding. There are cooperative projects that could be undertaken by Sonoma County find Mendocino County interests to create new storage which might cost less per ac/ft because they could be done on a larger scale. You are well aware of the fact that no significant water storage facilities have been built in the last thirty years in the area north of Bakersfield largely because of environmental concerns. Cooperation is unlikely if Mendocino County interests are t~5,ing to acquire existing Sonoma County supplies through legal claims when those supplies are available only because of the foresight of our neighbor in constructing Lake Mendocino. The Board will continue to work to provide for development ora reliable supply of water. The Board will continue to explain this situation to the agricultural lenders in this area and to the Bureau of Reclamation. What you can do is conserve as much as you can in your water use, expect that water costs will rise in the years ahead and increase greatly if we are successful in findin,, a del0endabie supr)iv and are able to brino_ a bond issue to vou to finance those facilities that supply. If we have an extended drought, agricultural interests need to be prepared for substantial curtailment of supply and an increase in the cn.qt per ac/fi. ,qinee less wa*.er wi!! be ~stnct. av'ai,au~ [o suppo~'t tl~e ~" ' ' We will keep you informed of developments.

The pormit that resulted from that application was assigned to the Sonoma County Water Agency (SCWA) and later reassigned, in part, to the Mendoeino Cmmty Russian River Flood Control and Water Conservation Improvement District 0viCRRFC)- The SCWA and MCRRFC contributed $4,965,000 and $633,000 respectively to pay the local share of costs for the consm~fion of Coyote Dam and Lake Mendocino. The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) held heatings in 1959 to determine how the water in Lake Mendocino was to be apportioned, and issued De~ision 1030 and WR 74-30. The permit was divided inw two pexm~its of equal priority, 12947A for SCWA and 12947B for MCRRFC, and the water in Lake Mendooino was apportioned as follows: 37,544 8,000 20,000 10,000 Acre Feet to SCWA (WR 74-30) Acre Feet to MCRRFC (WR 74-30) ACRE Feet to Pre 1949 users ia Mendocino County (This is subject to being increased by applications filed later according to D-1030) Acre Feet to Pre-1949 users in Sonoma County's Russian River Valley (DeciSion 1030) Acre Feet of Post 1949 Appropriation (WR 74-30) Lake Mendocino has a capacity of 122,500 acre feet at spillway level. The reservoir is designated for 70,000 acre fe~ of water supply storage, 48,000 acre feet of flood pool and 4500 acre feet of silt storage. The flood pool can be utilized for water supply ~toragc ~ March 1st of each year. In a normal year encroachment into the flood pool is made to a level that yields approximately 88,000 acre feet of water supply storage. The MCRRFC and SCWA have an equal right to store 122,500 AF of water in Lake Mendocino. The SCWA, with the consent of the MCRRFC, manages the lake level for wa;t~r supply purpo~ from approximately March 1 to October 1. Streamflow requirements to maintain fish and riparian wildlife and habitat were set by Decision.. 1610 and are maintained by the SCWA. MCRRFC was formed with three primary functions in mind. First, to retire the dcbt incurred building Coyote Danx Second, administer ard manage the 8,000 acre-foot water right to the water stored in Lake Mendoeino. And, third, maintain the streamway. The District has President Jud~ Hatch VTce President Tom Mot Pete T~t~ Tom ~~ B~ T~~ retired the debt, but continues to adminis~r and manage the water right, and maintain the channel of the Russian River in Mendocino County. MCRRFC has recently moved their offices and are located at 151 Laws Avenue, Suite D, Uldah, CA. They can be reached by phone at (707) 462-5278 or by fax at (707) 462-5279. History of Sonoma Counties Water Agency · · Transmission Systems Water Transmission System The genesis of water transmission system of the Agency is the Coyote Valley Dam Project Concurrent with the US. Army Corps of Engineers studies leading to authorization and construction of the dam, the Agency retained consultants and carried out studies on how to put to use the water supply the dam project would produce. The first such study was co~ned the year the Agenc~ was formed, 1.949. This study was per/ormed by Whiplde ~ Company of Palo Alto, California. On October 6, 1950 Whipple issued a~eport proposing a transmission system to deliver water from the proposed Coyote Valley Dam Project. On March :3, 1953 Stone and Youngberg, Municipal Financh~g Consultants, were retained by the Agency to prepare a report on methods of financing both the Agency's share of the capital costs of the proposed dam and a transmission system for delivering Russian River water. The folIowh~ year, on February 1, 1954, $~one and Youngt0erg issued their report recommending the issuance of general obligation bonds. The bonds were to be repaid with water sales revenues rather than property taxes, but would get the benefit of the lower interest rate arising from the pledge ~Jf property tax revenues. On January-4, 1955 the Board of Directors of the Agency directed its chief engineer, Paul L Nichols,-tb prepare a report estima~g the amount of money that would have ~o be raised by the sale of the revenue bonds to pay for the cost of constructing a transmission system. Mr. Nichol's report, issued March 15,1955, relied to a ~tial degree on the earlier Whipple reporL It recommended the construction of an initial project consisting of a single 25 m~ion gallon per day (mgd) collector, pumps and chlorinator at Wolder, a 15 mile long 42-inch and 36-in~ in diameter pipeline to Santa Rosa, and a 6 _mfllian Ballon terminal re~oir. In addition to the chosen location at Wohler, the report also considered Healdsb~g as a diversion point, but it was rejected. Of several pipeline routes considered, a rout~ descn~ed as the Wolder-Fulton-Santa Rosa route was recommended. While the project was planned to initially serve only Santa Rosa, it was recommended that the initial system be oversized to accommodate the future needs of Pelaluma, Cotati, and Penngrove to the south, Sebastopol to the west, and Sonoma, Glen Ellen, Kenwood and Rincon Valley to the east. The repo~ estimated the am ~ount of bonds that would be necessar~ to be sold to finance the initial trlmsmis~on syslmn project at $2.2 million. The report estimated the bond financing requirements for the planned additional h-ansmission system facilities at $2.0 million for the Petahima aqueduct, $400~ for the Sebastopol aqueduct, $1.9 million for the Sonoma aqueduct, and $2.0 miIlton to cover increased construction costs, interest during constm~on and undefined additional facilities. The total estimat~ amount of bonds that would be required was $8.5 minion. On May 6, 1955 the City of Santa Rosa entered into an agreement with the Agency for 14,000 acre-feet per annum of Russian River water. At a speci_'a! election held May 10, 37 1955, the sale of $8.5 million in general obligation bonds was approved by ~e voters of Sonoma County to finance the water transmission systeuc On June 19,1956 fl'm 1955 watex supply a~ _~at betw~ the City of Santa Rosa and the Agem~ was supplemented by an addiUonal agreement defining in delail the business terms under which the city would receive and pay ~or wa~r from the planned new transmission systenr On ~eptember~5, 1956 the Agency sold $2.35 million of the $8.5 million in au~ed water trammlission system general ~obligation bond$~ designated Seri~ A, ~o finance construction of the initial system. )~ On March 18~ 1957 the C1aief Engineer of the Agem~ filed a report proposh~ clmnges in the initial wa~er transmia~on bonds, dezigna~_~d Series B, were sold on October 15,1957 to financ~ ~ changes.

However, the water supply agreement between Petaluma and North Matin and the Agency was superseded by the agreement providing for the construction of the Russian River- In March 1961 the Chief Engin~-~ of the Agency issued a report recommending the construction of a 346 mile long 8-bach in d~met~ pipeline from the Santa Rosa Aqueduct to Forestvme, a pumping plant, and a 300~ gallon reservoir to deliver water ~o Fo~s~.

The amendment also authorized the Agency, rather than acquiring the Potter Valley Project, to make annual payments to the owner of the Project to insure the continued operation of the Project provided such payments were annually approved by the Water Advisory Commi~ee. Amendment No. 9 requi~ the proceeds of the R~ River Conservation Charge paid to the Agency by North Marin Water ~ct and Matin Municipal Water Distr~ in lieu .of the property taxes paid by the property owner~ in Sonoma County to be deposi. '~ in a ~ River Projects Fund. The amendment ~iml ~h~d the uses of these funds to pay for the Agency's Russian River and Dry Creek channel-stabilization works obligations arising from the Coyote Valley and Warm Springs Dam Projects, securing and defending appropriative water rights, paying the United States Government for the Coyote Valley and Warm Springs Dam projects, acquiring all or part of the Potter Valley Project or making contributions to the owner of the Proj~ to insure the Project's continued operation, and fishery nu'tigation and enhancement projects in the Russian and Eel Rivers. Amendment No. 9 changed the method for determining an afFumative vote of the Water Advisory Committee. Under the amendment, an affirmative vote required the vo~ o{ more than one-half of votes of the water contractors weighted in proportion to their annual delivery entitlements and the vote of more than one-half of the water contractors. The amendment made additional mm-substantive tedmical changes to conform the agreement to the three above described ~ul~tm~tive provisions. On November 14, 1997 the Tenth Amended Agreement for Water Supply and construction o! the Cota~i-lntertie Project was signed by the last of the parties and became effective. At that time the Agreement for Water Supply and Construction of the Russian River-Cotati Intertie Project contained many obsole~ provisions. These included those relating to the initial construction of the Russian River-Cotati Intertie Project, the construction of the Agency's existing emergency wells and the existing Petaluma Aqueduct pumping planL They included those establishing interim delivery limits pri~r to the complelion of construction of the initial features of the Russian capital deficits and capital costs of the Petahmm Aqueduct pumping plant.

This agreement allowed the City of Petal~ ~o use ~ North Matin Aqueduct to tramport water from the McNear Avenue meier to a City of Petaluma 16-inch turn~t located about 1600 feet south of the meter. On March 11, 1993 North Matin Wal~_r District ente~l into an Intertie Agreement with the Matin Municipal Water District that provided for the coordinated use of the two entities' water systems, surplus waist and surplus systmn opacity. The Intertie Agreement also provided that North Marin would offer to tmns~ all its rights and interest in the portion of the North Matin Aqueduct between the McNear Avenue meter md the Agency's Kastania Reservoir to the Agency and that Marin Munidpal would offer to U-ans~ all its rights and interest in ~ Municipal's Kastmfa pumping plant to the Agency. -'- As noted earlier, on November 14, 1997 the Tenth Amended Agreement for Water Supply and Constmclion of the Cotati-Intertie Project was ~ by the last of the parties and became ~e. In addition to the provisions disctmsed earlier, the Tenth Amended Agreement also authorized the acquisition by the Agency of the McNear to Kastania portion of the North Matin Aqueduct and Marin Municipal's I(astania pumping plant. On April 13, 1999 the Agency entered into an Agreement with the North Matin Water District and the lViarin Municitml Water District for the acqui~tion of a portion of the North Matin Aqueduct and the Kastania Pumping Plant. Under this agree_m~t the Agency .acquired approximalely'8,000 feet of the North Matin Aqueduct and the Kastania pumping plant. It also acq~ the 16-inch turnout serving Petaluma and the associated valves and meters, a 12-inch unmel~md turnout serving North Marh~ and two small service taps serving North Marin customers. In the fall of 1963 negoliations were initiated between the Agency and the Matin Municipal and North Marin Water Districts regarding the establishment of a Russian River ~water pool~ (water supply sharing arrangement) to supply a proposed Sonoma- Marin aqueduct system to deliver Russian River water to Marin County as an alternative to the proposed North Bay Aqueduct of the California Water Project. On January 28,1964 the Agency entered in~o an agreement with the Maria County water districts. The agre~ment expressed the intention of the parties to refrain from supporting the development of the proposed North Bay. Aqueduct and to make a good faith effort to finalize a binding contract within five years that would provide for the development of the proposed Sommm-Marin Aqueduct ~ and a Russian River water pool The agreement term expired in 1969 without a final contract having been achieved- As noted previously, the proposed Sonoma-Maxin Aqueduct that had been planned to serve southern Matin County was subsequently overwhelmingly rejected by Matin County voters in 1971. Nevertheless, on July 3, 1975 the Ag~ entered int~ an agreement with the Maria Municipal Watex Distri_~ enfitlod the "Offpeak Water Supply Agreement", that provided for the delivery of water to Matin Municipal Water District not to exceed the annual amount of 4,300 acre-feet using excess capacity in the Agmlc~s transmission s3rstem available during the off-peak months of the year. The rate of delivery was limited to a maximum rate of 700 acre-feet per month. Marin Municipal was required to pay for at least 2,F~0 acre-feet of water per annum, whether or not it acttmlly took delivery of that amount. The po'mt o~ delivery~was the Agenc3fs McNear meter at the end of the Petahuna Aqueduct where it connected to the North Marin AqueducL The water was then conveyed to Matin Munidpal's distribution system via the North Marin Aqueduct pursuant to a wheeling agreement between Matin Munidpal and North Matin Water District that was entered into on September 11,1974_ On August 28, 1984 the Offpeak Water Supply Agreement was amended. Under the 1975 agreement, Matin Municipal's right to delivery of water had been contingent upon the availability of water in the Russian River unaugmented by releases from storage in Lake Mendocino or Lake Sonoma. With the First Amended Offpeak Water Supply A~ment, the Agency agreed to make releamm frrom a~orage when ra~c~ to make-~ivmlable in the RussianrRiver sufficient water to deliver the ~ acre-feet of water provided for in the agreement. In return, Marin Munidpal agreed ~o pay a lump sum toward the cost of Warm Springs Dam and annual payments in lieu of the property taxes paid by Sonoma County property taxpayers for Warm Springs Dam. The amended agreement also increased the maximum off-peak period rate of delivery to 760 acre-feet per month. On May $, 1988 the Of/peak Water Supply Agreement was again amended. Under the Second Amended Offpeak Water Supply Agt~nmaent, Marin Municipal was allowed to take delivery of 1,800 acre-feet of their 4300 acre-feet per annum entitlement durh~ the months of May through September. Only water delivered during the off-~ period was counted as meeting the ~ acre-feet per annum take or pay requirement. As a result of the Second Amended Offp~ Water Supply Agreement, the Agency was .virtually assun~ of receiving the revenue accruing ~rom annual water sales of close to 4,300 acre-feet to Matin M~ and Mar~ secured a badly needed summer source of water. On January 25, 1996 the Agency entered into a_.~Supplemental Water Supply Agreement with Mar~ Municipal Water DishicC The Su~pplem~tal Water Supply Agreement had two pfimfipal lmrposes. The first purpose was to revise the Second Amended Offpeak Water Supply Agreem_ ~ ~ and the Agreement for Sale of Water to accommodate the Agency's efforts to attem~ to ensure a continuation of the Pacific Gas and EI~ Company's his~ric diversions of Fel River Water to the Russian River. The second purpose was to increase the reliability of the Russian River water that is available to Marin Municipal pursuant to the two agreements. The Supplemental Water Supply Agreement aRempted ~o retain the historical context of the two then existing agreements and preserve their content to the maximum extent possible. This was accomplished by a series o~ amen~ts to the then ex.ting agreem~ ix) achieve the two primary purposes. The Third Amended Offpeak Water Supply A~ement increased the total quantity of water subject to a "take or pay* require ~ment from Z.500 to ~ acre-feet per year. It extended the Agency's obligation to release water from stora~ to include hhe full year rather than just during the off-peak period. It conf~ed the a~reement to language in Amendment No. 9 to the Agreement for Water Supply and Construction of the Russian River-Cotati Int~qie Project that required the Russian River Conservation Charge paid by Matin Municipal be credited to the Agem3es Russian River Projects Fund. It added a new Russian River Projects Charge to be paid by Matin Municipal in lieu of Sonoma ~ property tax money other than the Warm Springs Dam tax levy proceeds that is applied by the Agency for purposes related to ma/ntaining the Russian River water supply. The Amen/ded Agreement for the Sale of Water provided that Matin Mmddl~ would pay a lump sum in~ the A~ Warm Springs Dam sinking fund no later than July 31, 1996/n consideration of an ~ on the par~ of ~he Agency I:o release up to 5,000 acre-feet of water from storage when necessary to make deliveries of water to Matin Municipal under the Amended Ag~m~nt for the Sale of Water. This option was exercised by Matin Municil~L An o~ ~o finn up the addi~ 5J)00 acid-feet to that Matin Munidpal was entitled under the Agreement for Sale of Water was establishe~L The option must be exerdsed no laler than July 1, 2005. The optima payments payable by Matin Murddpal, calculated on the then current balance of the Warm Springs Dam sinldng fund, exceeded $2.5 million dollars for each of the 5000 z~e-feet blocks of water. Under the option p '__riCh__ g formula, the price for the 5000 acre-feet block second block increased each year until the option was either exercised, or expired. The Amended Agreement for the Sale of Water provided for Marin Munidpal to pay its share of any capital costs incurred by the Agency in corgunction with the Potter Valley Project ~ by the Agency. A new Russian River Projects Charge was added to be paid by Matin Municipal in lieu of Sonoma County property tax money other than the Warm Springs Dam tax levy proceeds which is applied by the Agency for pm-pos~ related to maintaining the Russian River.wal~r supply. A "take or pay" obligation was imposed on Marin Municipal with respect in the Russia? River ConserVation Charge and the Russian River Projects C~arge. The "take' or pay" requirement was applied to the quantity of water that had become firm by virtue of Matin Municipal's payment and exercise of option. 52 Mendocino Coun Water Contract As noted above, in the fall of 1963 negotiations were initia~ between the Agency and the Mad~ Municipal and North Matin WaW. r Districts regarding the establishment of a Russian River "waler poor' (water supply sharing arrangement) tv supply a proposed Sonoma-Marin aqueduct system. This aqueduct was ~ to deliver Russian River water to Matin County as an alternative to the proposed North Bay Aqueduct of the Stat~ Water ProjecL During this period Sonoma County Counsel Richard M. Ramsey met with Merle P. Orchard, legal counsel for the Mendodno County Russ~: River Flood. Control and Water Conservation Improvement ~ 0Viendocino ~). In a letter dated September 25,1963, l~r. Orchard stated that the Board of ~rs of the Mendocino District was very interested in the proposition of a Russian River water pool in which the three counties would participate in a common conservation project repayment fund. As noted above, on Jmma~ 28, 1964 the Agency entered into an agreement with North Matin and Matin Municipal Water Districts. 'llxis agreement expressed the intention of the parties to refrain from supporting the development of the proposed North Bay Aqueduct and to make a good faith effort to finalize a binding contract within five years that would provide for the development of the proposed Sonoma-Marin Aqueduct system and a Russian River water pool In response to Mr. Orchard's representations, the Agreement with North Marin and Matin Municipal also provided that the Mendocino District would be invited to participate in the water pool However, the agreement term expired in 1969 without a contract having bccn executed. In a letter dated January 18, 1972, the Board of Directors of the Mendo~ino District proposed a joint meeting with the Board of Directors of the Agency and North Matin Water District to resume d/somsions of the proposed Russian River water pooL The letter stated ~hat the Redwood Valley Comxt~ Wate~ E)4_~trict, which nerve~ Re,woo& Valley in Mendocino Cmmty, needed an assured water supply for a Bureau of Reclamation Small Projects Act project that Redwood Valley was undertaking. The Improvement District stated a firm commitment of water supply and the machinery by which it would be paid for r'-~eded to be ~ within a few months so that the Mendocino District could give Redwood Valley the assurances that were nec~sary. A joint meeting of the three boards was held on March 10, 197Z A joint powers agreement between the Agent, the Mendocino District and North Marin was discussed and the respective starts were requested to develop the agreement. Work on the agreement occurred throughout the summer by the Agency and the 1Vien~locino Dish4.cL Merle P. Orchard, by k-tt~ ~lated August 24, 1972 ~o Isamish~nt County Counsel Thomas B. Saywer, indicated the Mendocino District was satisfied with the agreement. The Agency proceeded to prepare two exlu~ts for the agreement. These were mailed to the Mendocino District on October 6, 197Z In the meantime the Mendocino District entered into a contract with Redwood Valley, dated October 4, 1972, agreeing to furnish Redwood Valley with water /rom the Improvement Districts Coyote Valley Dmn Pxoje~ wate~ until it was all required by the lVlendocino DistriO- As a result of staff changes and other problems, North Marin put aside the proposed agreement- In a letter dated Marc~ 30, 1973 the Mendocino District requested North Matin to immedm~ely consider the agreement- Personnel changes also occurred at the Mendocino District, with Ed Carpenter, who had been the principal contact leaving and Gary Ackerstrom being ap~ as District ]ingineer. As a result of these ~el changes and the then uncerta~ status of the Warm Springs Dam Project, further efforts to finalize the agreement were deferred. In a letter dated January 21,1974 Merle P. Orchard requested the assistance of Tom B. Sawyer.in reviving discussions to secure water to meet Redi~tood Valley~s future needs '~m the Warm Spring~ co~' 1,Io~ ome o~ ~i~ re,est because ot~ the uncer~_ in status of the Warm Springs Dam Project On July 31,1975 a meeting that had been called by the California Departmen~ o[ Water Reso~ was held at North Matin Wa~er District. At this meeting it was proposed that discussions to establish a Russian River water pool be revived. A meeting of various Mendocino County agencies followed on August 4,1975 and a letter was sent to lviendocino County Administrator A1 Beltmmi by Redwood Valley on August 7, 1975 requesting Mendocino County to iniliate a meeting between Mendodno, Sonoma and Marin Counties to establish a Russian River water pool From this time until the November 6,1979 referendum on the Warm Springs Dam Projec~ no significant action ~ relative to addressing Mendocino County's water needs because of the continuing uncertainty about the status of the Warm Springs Dam ProjecL On October 7, 1980, a meeting was held in the Agency's office~ at the request of Mendocino County. The purpose of the meeting was to renew the dialogue between the various involved parties relative to the water needs of lviendodno County. It was the general consensus of those present that a lack of intommtion impaixed the ability of the parties to enter into substantive negotiations for a long-~ water supply for Mendocino County. It was decided ltxat Gordon W. Miller, a consultant to Mendocino County, Robert F. Beach, General Manager of the Agenc3~, and John O. Nelson, General Manager of North Marin Water District, would constitute an ad hoc committee to examine the alternatives available and recommend a plan for allocating the benefits and costs 9ssociated with the Russian River ProjecL On March 16, 1981, a document entitled *First Interim Report on a Benefit Allocation for the Russian River Project" was issued by the ad hoc committee. The repo~ summarized the existing institutional and legal constraints affecting the Russian River an~ identifie~l thxee almmative metho~ for ~iocatin$ the benefits and costs of the Russian River Project_ These were an ad valorem method, a unit water charge method, and a defined benefit method. The ad valorem method is the method that was contemplated in the proposed 1972 joint power~ agreement to establish a Russian River water pool and project fund. Under this agreement all Russian River Project expenses were to be paid from the fund. Project expenses were defined as indu~ debt service paid by the Agency and the Mendocino District on bonds issued to finance the 'construction of the Coyote Valley Project, and the capital, opem~ and maintenance expends associat~ with the Warm Springs Dam Projec~ Each party would have paid into the fund in proportion to their assessed valua~. Eac~ party would have been entitled ~o the beneficial use of R~ Rivet Project water in the The unit wa~r charge method described in the report would also have ~ in the agreement.. Under this method, however, each party tO the .~xee~ent. w .oma~pay mw the fund a uni~o~ unit charge for each acre-foot of Ru~-ian River Proje~wa~mr ~o which h~e party has a tight. The urdform unit charge would be adjusted annually to Under the defined ~t mettmd each component of the Russian River Project would Coyote Valley Project was at that time aheady alloca~ and any addi~o~al County would have to come f~m the Agency's existing entitlement in the Coyote Valley Project~ It also recognized that any additional entitlements of water for Matin County should come ~rom Lake Sonoma rather than Lake Mendocino. The appropriate measure of benefit of a transfer of the Agency entitlement ~ Lake Mendod~ water to a third pa~ was proposed to be the unit cost ~ the Agen~ o~ Lake Sonoma water that would have ~o be used by the Ager~ in lieu of the transfened Lake Mendocino walx~r. The Benefit Allocation Plan concJuded that the d ~/ned benefit method had a nmnber of advantages over the other method~ It was equflable ami comparatively ~.~!mpi~ It could be. implemeni~ within the existing institutional and a~e water right fxamework and, equally as important, it could be imp~ in stages. The report set forth an implementation strategy that included mnen~ existing agreements between the Agency and North Matin and ~ Municipal. It called for a determina~n of the future demand of Redwood Valley, the Ukiah and Hopland Valleys and the Alexander Valley on the Coyote VaUey Dam Ptojec~ it anUcipated a transier of the Agency's entitlement to Lake lViendocino water to satisfy those d_omz,mds under separate agreements with Mendocino and ~dexander Valley interests. The Benefit Allocation Plan w~ distn'bulr~d to all affect~ agencies during March and April 198L It was presented to lt~e Board of Direci~m of the Agency on May 5,1981, and, although not forma~ adopted, nevertheless thereafter guided the Agency's As noted above, on April 13, 1982, Amendment No. 5 to the master agreement between the Agency and the eight public agencies that rely on the Russian River for water was made. This amendment el' _ruminated language relating to North Marin's entitlement to Coyote Valley Project wal~r and the payment then being made by North Matin of a charge in lieu of the ad valorem tax paid by Sonoma County property for the Coyote Valley Dam Project bonds. The amendment provided instead for the payment of a 'Russian River conservation charge~ in lieu of the ad valorem taxes levied by the Agem3~ on property in Sonoma County, to pay the capital, operation and maintenance costs associated with the Warm Springs Dam Project. The First Amended Offpeak Water Supply Agreement dat~l August 28, 1984 with Marin Municipal Water District instituted a similar charge. Early in 1982, Redwood Valley request~ that the ~ Manager of the Agency meet with its Board of Directors to explore the possibility of a contract for firm water supply'from Lake Mendochxo. In action fa_ kon February 2, 1982, the Board of Directors of the Agency au~ ~ with Redwood Valley and on February 18,1982, the meeting was held in Redwood Valley. On July 13,1982, Redwood Valley advised the Agency it wished to pm'ch~se water and requesl~l that contract nego~tions be initiated. On August 20, 1982 a rough draft of a proposed agreement was completed by the Agency and sent to Conrad I~ Cox, Redwood Valley legal counsel, to serve as a starting point for negotiations. The Redwood Valley Board of Directors reviewed the rough draft on ~ 7, 1982, and raised several questions, These were responded to in a letter dated October 15, 1982. However, after this initial exchange of 1~, no further negotiations took place. Later, in October 1982, the Board of Tnmtees of the Mendocino District requested that the General Manager of the Agency meet with them to diseuss their, possible interest in acquiring additional water from the Coyote Valley ProjecL In response, in a letter dated Nov~ 1, 1982, addressed to Thomas F. Johnson, Improvement District legal counsel, the Agency requested that the Mendocino District furnish the Agency with any studies or other data that support the conclusion, assuming Redwood Valley became ~ suftficient, that the pre-1949 appropriative water fights vested in Mendocino County interests together with the Mendocino Districgs entitlement to Coyote Valley Project water were insuffident to meet Mendocino County's future needs. No response was received. -Nevertheless, a meeting was held on February 28, 1983, but no further communication followed. In a letter.dat~ January 17, 1983, the Agency informed Redwood Valley that the Agency w~uld have to petition ~he State Water Resources Control Board for a change in place'Of use under the Agency's Coyote Valley Dam Project appropriative water fights permit in the event Redwood Valley desired to pursue an agreement. Because of the lack of communication, Redwood Valley was asked to state its intentions with respect to an agreement, lm a letl~ dated ]an-_ary 25,1983, Redwood Valley informed the Agency that 'it is the present intention of the Redwood Valley County Water District to enter into a contract with the Sonoma County Water Agency whereby the Redwood Valley County Wal~r District wRl purchase water from the Sonoma County Water Agency.~ In response to this statement of intent, on February 23, 1983, the Agency filed a petition to include Redwood Valley as a place of use in Agency's Coyote Valley Project Appropriative Water Rights Permit 12947A issued under App~cation 12919A. In a letter dated October 19, 1984, Redwood Valley reaffirmed its intention to enter into a contract, adding that it would purchase ~up to 7,500 acre feet of water." At the Agency's water rights hearing before the State Water Resources Control Board on December 10, 1984, Keith Tieman, Manager of Redwood Valley, test4_'fied that the Board of Directors of the District on October 30, 1984, had issued a *Statement of Policy Regarding Water Purchases from Sonoma County Water Agency." He testified that this policy expressed the Districes intent that any water sales by the Agency m the District must reduce the Agency's appropriative wate~ right to Coyote Valley .Project water by the amount of such sales. The Agency was not advised by Redwood,Valley of this unacceptable condition prior to the hearing. On December 12, 1985 Robert F. Beach, General Manager of the Agency and A1 Beltrami, Mendodno County Administrator, met and discussed the Mendocino County water situatior~ This meeting was followed by a letter from Mr. Beach, dated Decembex 23, 1985, that outlined the history of discussions between the two counties. The letter advised Mr. Beltrami that since the February 1982 meeting of the Board of Directors of Redwood Valley there had been no meeting to negotiate an agreement and little communication- He was advised the 1982 rough draft that was to serve as a starting point for negotiaUons was by then outdated and had been superseded by the Marin Municipal agreement, which the Agency would look to as a model if negotiations with Redwood Valley were puxsued. /klso, the letter pointed out the Agency's petition for a change in place of use was vigorously contes.ted and might not be approved. The'letter also raised a serious public policy question that needed to be addressed with respect to a Redwood Valley contract. Redwood Valley had requested an entitlement of 7,500 acre feet per annum, however, its then current use was only about 1,200 acre feet per annum_ The letter suggested that Mendocino County address four questions that needed to be answered before negotiations were resumed. These were: 1) What are the future water requirements of Redwood, Ukiah and Hopland Valleys? 2) How much of that need could be satisfied by the pre-1949 appropriative water fights vested in Menclocino County interests and the Mendocino Distxi~s entitlement to Coyote Valley Project water? 3) What institution should contract with the Agency for the required'additional Coyote Valleff Project water? 4) How will that institution raise the revenue necessary to meet its financial obli§ations under the contract? The letter concluded with the observation that answering these questions would constitute a giant step toward satisfying Mendocino's future water needs. In a letter dated January 16, 1986 Mendocino County Administrator Beltrami responded that the December 23, 1985 letter had been reviewed by the Mend~o County Ad Hoc Water Committ~ and that Mendocino County would be developing a formal response in the next montl~ Fourteen months later, in a letter dated March 1987, lvir. Beltrami followed up the January 16, 1986 lett~ with a status report. He 57 described three activities that had taken place. These were: 1) Mendocino Count~ had contracted with Linda Bailey to activate the Mendocino County Water Agency.' 2) A study of water agencies delivering water in the Ukiah valley had been completed by the Mendocino County Local Agency Formation Commission. 3) Mendocino County had.contracted for a study of existing uses, projected demand and future deficiencies in supply. Mr. Beltrami condudea that the result of these activi~es was a greater awareness of the need for increased water supply and a heightened level of information and discussion. He concluded that lv~ndocino was fast approaching the time when it would be frui~ to discuss with the. Agem3r realistic and pra~ approaches to an incre~ water supply for Mendocino Co~. In a letter dated June 18,1987 Mendocino Cotmty Administrator Beltrami advised the Agency that Mendocino County had proposed legislation to bring the Mendocino District under the control of Mendocino County. The letter further stated that their preliminary review indicat~ a future need for an additional 13,000 acre-feet of water. On Novembe~ 2, 1987 the Board oi Directors of the Agency considered a staff report entitled 'Background and Policy Issues Relating to the Transfer of Coyote Valley Dam Project Water to Meet the Future Water Requirements of the Ukiah, Hopland and Alexander Valley dated October 1987." In action taken at that meeting, the Board authorized negotiations with Mendocino County to increase Coyote Valley Dam project water available to meet their needs. In a letter dated January 7,1988, the Agency General Manager RobertF. Beach advised Linda II. Bailey, General Counsel/Manager of the Mendocino County Water Agend-y, that the Board of ~rs of the Agency had reviewed the background and policy issues associated with providing Mendocino County with additional water. The letter stated that the Board had authorized the Agency's General Manager to negotiate an agreement for additio~ water. The letter discussed several policy issues that would have to be addressed including the quantity of additional water, how the cost should be determined, and who the contracting Mendocino County agency should be_ The letter stated that although the most logical agency would be the Mendocino District, the Agency would also be willing to contract with the Mendocino County Water Agency or a new age. mT having the necessary powers. The lette~ offered to iaxitiate negotia ',t~. immediately. On June 17,1988 the Agency received a letter from Thomas F. Johnson stating that he had been authorized to respond to the Agency's letter of January 7 to the Mendocino County Water Agency. Mr. Johnson was legal cotmsel for the Mendocino District. He stated that both the Mendocino District and the Redwood Valley County Water District were interested in pursuing negotiations, He requested that the Agency send As noted earlier, the Mendocino County Water Agency is an a~ that was established by state statute in 1949 that has powers similar to those of the Sonoma County Water Agency. It is governed by the Board of Supervisors of Mendodno County. him the form of contract the Agency contemplated. In a letter dated July 1, 1988 the Agenc3/s General Manager responded to Mr. Johnson's letter of June 17. He advised Mr. Johnson that the only contract language that had been determined perlained to pricing and that the Board of Directors had determined that the watez charge shotdd be the same as that included in the First Amended Offpeak Water Supply Agreement with Matin Municipal Water District. The letter included that language and stated that additional contract language would have to be developed in the course of negotiations, as the various concerns were identified and resolved. In dosing the letter stateil that it would be helpful if Mendocino County would deride who the contracting entFry would be and how much water was soughL In a letter dated September 23,1988 Linda II. Barley, General Counsel/M~~ of the Mendocino County Water A~ advised the Agency that the Mendocino County Water Agency would be the contracting party, that while there remained some outstanding questions about the exact amount of water Ix) be purchased, her current directions were to seek 13,000 acre-feet, and that she would like to begin drafting a contract immediately. In a letter dated Septembez 28,1988 the Agem3, respo~ed and negotiations were begu~ The initial draft of the agreement identified Mendocino County, the Mendodno County Water Agency and the Mendocino District all as parties. However, in the "first draft' dated May 22, 1989, which was prepared-by legal .counsel for the Mendocino Distric% Mr. Johnson, Mendocino County and the Mendocino County Water Agem3r were elim' _mated aS parties. The 'second draft~ was prepared by the Agem~ and it was dated July 21,1989. Mr. Johnson ~ed to the set-ond draft in a letter dated November 20, 1989 and in a lett~ dalai December 7, 1989 the Agency requested information and darifications of a number of issues addressed in Mr. Johnson's comments. At the same time these discussio~ were ongoing, on November 2, 1989, the Mendocino District filed an application with the State Water Resources Conlzol Board to appropriate water stored in Lake Mendoctno. In a letter dated February 20, 1990 addressed Im the Board of ~ of the Agency, Lee O. Howard, Chairman of the Board of Directom of the Mendocino Distrkt proposed that the Mendodno D/ptrict, Redwood Valley County Water District and the Agency (representing Alexamler Valley) enter into a joint powers agreement establishing a joint powers authority 0PA) and that the JPA appropriate ~all the water left in Imke Mendocino~ after providing for stream flow and existing waist rightr~ To the extent this leftover water was insufficient, the Mendocino Disl~ proposed that the ]PA enter into the contract with' the Agency for a portion of the Agency's 37~ acre-feet of water rights to Coyote Valley Dam ProjecL However, all the water stored in Lake Mendodno had been appropriated in 1949 and there was no 'water left in Lake Mendocino." In addition, the proposal would have the Agency purchasing water for Alexander Valley from itself, with the proceeds being shared by the Mendocino District and Redwood Valley. In his response datmt April 6,1990 Nick Esposti, Chalzman of the Board of Directors of the Agency, not~ the long history of discussions of a water pooling concept. He pointed out that since 1981 the Ab, ency had been committc~ to a conceptual approach to resolvil~ regional water supply problems that was ~ incompatible with the In a ~ dat~l April 10, 1990 the Sta~e Water Resources Con~l Board declined to accept the Mendocino District application. In a letter dated May 7, the origin laws and other chcmastances entitled the Mendocino Dishict to aPtymprla~ water s~ in Lake Mendocino wigmut paying the Agency for it. In spite d the Mendocino Dishict's app~~ to appro~~ water in Lake Mendocino, negotiations continued through 1990 and through the summer ot 1991 Mendocino District held a public hearing on the proposed agreement. Speake~ at the public hearing who spoke were overwelmhtgly in favor of the agreement, however, they were also primaray residents ~f the Redwood Valley Com~ Water District, which was dealing with an immediate water supply problem. Further negotiations occurred through the balance of 1991 and into 199Z The A§~ and the Mendodno District finally entm~d in~o-a wat~r.,supply ast~mumt on May 19, 1992. Under this asreement the Mendocino District would be entitled ~o divert 13,000 AFY of East Fo~k Russian River water under the Agency's water ri~ts permiis when water in excess ot the Agency's needs was available. Water could be taken from either the Bast Fork Russian River or Lake Mendocino. Under the trams of the agreement, each sp~ing the igeucy would have to determine how much, if any, water was available ~ laking into ~ all other A~ obligations and the water necessary to maintain a prudent reserve in l~ke Mendocino. The Mendocino District would have to pay an acre4oot dmrge in lieu of the property taxes levied by the Agency on property in S0ooma County to pay the capital, operation and main~ costs associa~l with Warm Springs Dam. The MeadoOno District would have m enter ~k~ written conhac~ for any water taken by its customers maier either ils own or the Agency's water righls permits.

On May 6, 1996 the Mendocino District adopted a negative declaration. In a letter dated July 12, 1996 the Mendocino District advised the Agency that it had filed notices of determi~tion for the project on May 6, 1996 and that the statute of limitations for lawsuits dmllenging the negative declaration had expired. The Mendocino ~ requesied the Agoncy to immediaiply file the water rights inquired as to the status of the petifionr, In a letter dated May 5,. 1997 to the Mendocino District, the Agency expla'med~ that the delay was due to the time it was taking to resolve with the State Board staff the details of how the various overall annual and instan~n~ms diversion limits on the permits would be addressed in the change petitions. The letIer also poin~ out flint an exlmmioia of the five-year terminaUon date in the agreoment between the Ager~ and the Mendocino District would be neces~-~y. In a letter dated December 19, 1997 the Agenc~ reminded the Mendocino District that the agn~ement had tnchnically lapsed and that ~ ~t should lormally request an extension. The letter further noted that the Agency could not tile the petitions with the State/:Board without an a~r~t between the A~ and the Mendocino In a letter dat~l March 23, i998/rom the Mendocino Dishict's new legal co~ Clayton l~ Brennan, the Mendoci~ District requested that the agreement be extended for two years. The letter also requesled a clarification of several provisions of the agreement. By let~ datmi May 8, 1998 the Agency transmitl~ to the Mendocino District a draft of the proposed extemi~ agt~m~mt. The Mendodno District returned the signed two-year extension agreement on August 31,1998 and the Agency Board of Directors approved it on ~ 13,1998. 61 On April 30, 1999 the Agency filed petitions ~o change Agency appropriative water rights Permit~ 12947A, 12949 and 12950 with the Stat~ Water Resources Control Board. By letter to the Mendocino District dated May 3, 1999 the Agency proposed a further two-year extension of the agreement tn aflow the State Board time to act on the petitions.

The Agency made the requested change and sent a revised January 24, 2000 to the Mend~ District, the Agency inquiz~d as to the status of the proposed extension agreemenL At a Mendodno District Board of Trustees meeting held January 29, 2000 a former membe~ of the State Water Re~urces Control Board, Mr. Mark Del Piero, an attorney, addressed the Board and presented two and one-half hour critique of the agreemenL In action taken, the Board directed its executive secretly not ~o exectrte and deliver the p~~ e~ agreemet~t I~o the Agomc3t pending a subsequent review. In a letter dated March 27, 2000 to the Agency, the Mendocino District noted that the agreoment expired on May 19,1999 and that the Mendodr~ District was not int~n~t~d tn pursuing-negotiations on ma ~ agreement. In a letter of the same date the Mendocino District noti_'fi~ the Sta~e Water Resottrces Control Board that it had terminated the agreement and did not intend to renew the agreement, ending a titirty- six year effort to address the water supply needs of l~lenclocino County. 62 Information on Sonoma Counties Water Agency Operations and Organization GENERAL OVERVIEW SONOMA COUNTY WATER AGENCY Departmental Mission The Sonoma County Water Agency (Agency) was created in 1949 by an act of the California State Legislature and is a special district. The law which created the Agency gives it the authority to produce and furnish surface water and groundwater for beneficial uses; to control flood waters; to generate electricity; and to provide recreational facilities in connection with the Agency's facilities. Legislation enacted in 1994 added the treatment and disposal of wastewater to the Agency's responsibilities. Special Revenue Funds- Flood Control Zones The Special Revenue Funds described below are used to construct and improve flood control facilities and to provide program support services for the flood control zones in Sonoma County. Common types of features constructed to help alleviate flooding are channelization works, bypass conduit systems, and diversion systems. Sonoma County is divided into nine major watershed areas. Flood control zones were created encompassing eight of these watersheds. Zone lA (Laguna-Mark West), Zone 2A (Petaluma River), and Zone 3A (Valley of the Moon/Upper Sonoma Creek) have the most active flood control programs. Zone 4A (Upper Russian River) and Zone 6A (Dry Creek) are completely inactive. Zone 5A (Lower Russian River) and Zone 8A (South Coastal) are less active than Zones lA, 2.A, and 3A, with only ongoing maintenance of existing facilities being performed. Zone 7A (North Coastal) has minimal fund reserves earning interest. The ninth watershed area, covedng the lower portions of Sonoma Creek and the Petaluma River, was never established as a zone. Flood control zones were created to reduce the frequency of flooding within the zone through construction of adequate facilities to safely handle projected storm flows. An appointed advisory committee for each active zone meets several times each year to make recommendations to the Agency's Board of Directors regarding priorities for construction of drainage facilities within each zone. Each proposed project is evaluated using criteda covedng historical flooding problems, areas benefited, altemative funding available, special safety and health factors, coordination with other public projects, and environmental concerns. Flood Control Zone lA is the watershed area that drains into and includes the Laguna de Santa Rosa and Mark West Creek. Flood Control Zone 2A is the watershed area in Sonoma County that drains into and includes the Petaluma River, with the exception of the most southerly portion of the area, which consists pdmadly of reclaimed tidelands. Flood Control Zone 3A is lhe watershed area in Sonoma County that drains into and includes Sonoma Creek, generally north of Highway 121. The pdmary funding source for capital projects in Zone lA and 2A is a voter- approved ten-year benefit assessment program for flood control, which ends June 30, 2007. in addition, some funding is received from the ad valorem property taxes. Funds for Zone 3A are received only from the ad valorem property taxes. Some additional funds are sometimes available from cities, the County, and community development sources to construct flood control proj~. In this 5-year plan, there are 13 projects identified for funding in Zone lA, seven projects identified for funding in Zone 2A, and two projects identified for funding in Zone 3A. The Agency will not take the lead on all of these projects, but will provide administration services and funding for all of the projects through the flood control zones. Water Supply Russian River Projects Fund The Russian River Projects Fund is used (1) to pay the costs for water supply and erosion control activities along the Russian River arising from assurances given by the Agency for the construction of the Coyote Valley Dam Project and Warm Springs Dam Project; (2) to pay the costs incurred by the Agency in securing and defending the Agency's appropriate water dghts necessary for the realization of the full benefit of those projects; (3) to pay the costs incurred by the Agency in operating the C_~., ote Valley Dam and Warm Spdngs Dam Projects, and (4) to pay the costs for water supply issues arising from activities of the Potter Valley Project. In this 5year plan, the Russian River Projects Fund provides for inspection of construction of the Healdsburg Dam and Fish Ladder project, continued studies of various proceedings for the Potter Valley Project (including the sale of the Project), design and conslAmtion of the Matanzas Creek Fishway, habitat restoration in the Laguna de Santa Rosa, partial funding of the US Army Corps of Engineers Study of Detention Capacity of Laguna de Santa Rosa, and a study of water supply in Dry Creek. General District Funds These funds include the General Fund and the Spdng Lake Park Fund. The Spring Lake Park Fund provides for occasional construction projects in Spring Lake Park. Spdng Lake Park is a public park owned by the Agency and operated under contract by the Sonoma County Regional Parks Department. In this 5-year capital plan, there are no identified capital projects. Internal Service Fund The Internal .Service Fund provides for building improvements to the Administration building, Service Center, and Operations and Maintenance building at the Agency's West College Avenue site and the maintenance facilities located at the Airport Treatment Plant. In this 5-year plan, the Intemai Service Fund provides for development of plans for and the expansion of Agency facilities. Enterprise Funds Water Transmission System The Agency is the primary provider of potable water to eight water contractors. The water contractors include the cities of Santa Rosa, Petaluma, Sonoma, Rohnert Park, and Cotati, and the Valley of the Moon, Forestville and North Matin Water Districts. The Agency is responsibte for the planning, environmental review, design, and construction of capital improvement projects to expand the water transmission system that serves the water contractors as required under the terms and conditions specified in the "Eleventh Amended Agreement for Water Supply" (Eleventh Amended Agreement). Construction of the facilities specified in the Eleventh Amended Agreement is projected to occur over the next thirty years. The water contractors' advisory committee (Water Advisory Committee) meets approximately monthly with the Agency to discuss the ~uling and financing of water transmission system projects and other water transmission system issues. Capital improvements made to the water transmission system are funded from the Storage Facilities Fund, the Pipeline Facilities Fund, and the Common Facilities Fund to meet the needs of the water contractors for the facilities identified under the Eleventh Amended Agreement. Capital projects have been scheduled to accommodate funding limitations, to provide the least disruption to existing facilities and water contractors, and to allow an orderly and timely start-up to meet the conditions of the Eleventh Amended Agreement or any new laws or regulations governing ddnking water suppliers. Construction of Collector No. 6, however, has been delayed due to r~Jgation and regulatory constraints. This delay has resulted in a temporary impairment in reliable water production capacity of the Agency's water transmission system. In February 2001 the Agency entered into a "Memorandum of Understanding Regarding Water Transmission System Capacity Allocation Dudng Temporary Impairment' with its water contractors, the Town of Windsor, and the Marin Municipal Water District to address issues associated with the temporary impairment, including the allocation of the reliable water production capacity. This 5-year plan includes funding for 22 projects related to storage, pipeline, and common facilities for the ~ter transmission system. The total projected cost for these projects is approximately $56.3 million. Included in these projects is the Water Supply and Transmission System Project and individual, specific projects identified in the Water Supply and Transmission System Project. The Agency is identifying potential water supply sources and facilities to meet the expected future water demands identified for each water contractor as part of the Water Supply and Transmission System ProjecL Sanitation Zones The Agency owns and operates six sanitation zones, which include Airport- Larkfield-Wikiup, Geyserville, Graton, Penngrove, Sea Ranch, and Sears Point. The sanitation zones operate as zones of benefit, similar to the Agency's flood control zones. Because the Sears Point Sanitation Zone has a single customer, that customer pays for all capital improvements and the Sears Point Sanitation Zone has not been included in this capital plan. Sanitation projects are scheduled according to the specific plans for each zone. Funding of projects may be accomplished by state revolving fund loans, certificates of participation, notes, revenue bonds, or on a pay-as-you-go basis. This 5-year plan includes funding for projects to replace, upgrade, or expand the collection, treatment, and disposal/reclamation facilities for most of the sanitation 7orlos. Sanitation Districts The Agency is also responsible for the overall management (including operation) of five County Sanitation Districts. The five districts include Forestville, Occidental, Russian River, Sonoma Valley, and South Park. Each County Sanitation District exists as a separate legal entity as a special district. This 5-year plan includes funding for projects to replace, upgrade, or exPa~nd the collection, treatment, and disposal/reclamation facilities for most of the County Sanitation Districts. CD History In the Beginninq - the 50s A New Ddnking .Water Supply Mana~in_q the Floodwaters - the 6Os Meeting a Growing Community_ 's Water Needs - the 705 In the Bellinnin~ - the 50s A community that depended largely on farming for its economic livelihood, Sonoma County grew by 1920 into the nation's eighth-ranked county in ag~ral county's residents rwed in rural seaing~ As of 1947, for example, the county's population tolaled about 73,000, with only 15,000 in Santa Rosa. Russian River, whose upper reaches slowed to a trickle in most summers, was augmented by diversions from the Eel River beginning in 1906. The increased flows ~ particularly important to farming in the ~ reaches of the county. Residents to the south relied more on groundwater wells, but the water was of generally poor quality. A series of winter floods between 1935 and 1945 caused $6.1 million in damage in Sonoma County. In 1937 the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors requested that the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers study the Russian River Basin to develop a comprehensive flood control plan. Delayed by World War !1 and not presented to Congress until 1949, the Corps' study identified growth. The U.S. Army Coq~ recommended const~ of Coyote Valley Dam on the east fork of the Russian River, just north of Ukiah, as well as additional flood control and water conservation reservoirs on Dry Creek, Maacama Creek, Big Sulphur Creek, and other Russian River tributaries. To implement the Corps' recommendation, Sonoma County was required to create an entity with the legal authority to enter into agreements with federal, state, and local governments. On October 1, 1949, the Sonoma County Water Agency - then known as lhe Sonoma County Flood Control and Water Conservation District and operating under a board of directors made up of the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors - was established. Coyote(/alley Dam was completed and dedicated in 1959, at a cost of $5.6 million raised by bond election. The dam, creating Lake Mendocino and operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, both controls winter floods and stores 118,000 acre-feet of water. 1 The Sonoma County Water Agency and the Mendocino County Russian River Flood Control and Water Conservation Improvement District share state water dghts pem~its to store water in the reservoir. However, as the local sponsor for the construction of Coyote Dam, the Sonoma County Water Agency has the exclusive dght to control releases from the water supply pool in Lake Mendoctno. Once water stored in the lake reaches the flood control pool, the federal sponsor determines releases, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. As the local sponsor for the project, the Agency also assumed responsibility for maintaining channelizafion works on the Russian River constructed along with Coyote Valley Dam. A New I)rinkir~ Water Supply B_a_~ t__o_to~ p http://www.sewa, ca. gov/waterfaets/aboutus/history/body_history-html 3/14/02 The bond election also provided for the construction of the Agency's water supply and transmission system. The system began simply enough m a single diversion facility, called a "Ranney collector," at Wohler Bddge, to collect water from a depth of approximately 60 feet in the grave~s next to the Russian River and pump it th~ the Santa Rosa Aquedtmt for 15.6 miles to storage tanks near Lake Ralphine in Santa Rosa. The Santa Rosa Aqueduct formed the backbone of the Agency's delivery system, with ali future aqueducts connecting to it. The Agency commenced providing water to the City of Santa Rosa on May 24, 1959, under a 1956 agreement that set the fees the city was to pay and the quantities of water the Agency was to provide. To provide sufficient revenues to expand the system, the Agency entered into similar before its constnJction. The Petaluma Aqueduct, completed in 1962, provides water to the cities of Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Cotati, and the North Marin Water District. The Forestville Aqueduct, completed in 1962, provides water to the Forestvitle Water District; and the Sonoma Aqueduct, completed in 1965, to the City of Sonoma and the Valley of the Moon Water District. Mana~jinsj the Floodwaters - the 60s Back t9 t_pp Flood control continued to be an important aspect of the Agency's work, particularly after large areas in Sonoma County were inundated repeatedly in the mid-1950s. The Agency again requested the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers survey the Russian River basin to evaluate flood control and water resources in the region. To provide financing for flood management projects, the Board of Directors in 19,58 proposed the creation of nine flood control zones, each encompassing a major watershed, which could be activated at the request of 25 percent of the property owners within its boundaries to allow assessments for flood control projects. Today, six of the nine zones are funded. Activation of Zone lA led to channel improvements in the Laguna de Santa Rosa, a natural waterway and overflow basin flowing to Mark West Creek and ultimately the Russian River. The Laguna de Santa Rosa was once very effective at reducing flooding on the lower Russian River, but silt and debris, as well as encroaching development, have begun to reduce its capacity. Additional structures, lux)wn collectively as the Central Sonoma Watershed Project and aimed at preventing flooding in Santa Rosa, were planned for o~er tributaries to the Russian River. This project includes five water diversion structures built in the late 1960s on Santa Rosa Creek, Matartzas Creek, Paulin Creek, Brush Creek, and Spdng Creek. in 1962, following the second survey report by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Congress author~ed a flood control structure and reservoir with recreational facilities on Ehy Creek, a major tributary to the Russian River, near Cloverdale. Called Warm Springs Dam, the project was designed to provide 212,(XX) acre-feet of water supply storage and 130,000 acre-feet of flood control storage in a reservoir to be known as Lake Sonoma. Warm Sp~'ngs Dam proved to be very controversial. Design and construction were suspended several)tfnes by litigation over financing and environmental effects, and ballot initiatives to halt the dam were presented to voters- and defeated - on three occasions. In 1983, more than four decades after the Corps' initial 1937 survey, Lake Sonoma began storing water. Meeting a Growing Communtty's Water Needs - the 70s Ba~k. to Lop New freeways and commuter routes to San Francisco and Oakland, combined with the building and baby booms following World War II, drew businesses and rambles to Sonoma County. The demand for water grew apace. In the flint year of operation for the Santa Rosa Aqueduct, 1959/60, the Agency pumped a little over 6,000 acre feet of water. By the end of the decade, with an additional Ranney collector and expanded aqueduct system, the Agency was delivering 18,000 acre-fee~ of water annually, a threefold increase in only 10 years, and the system was stretched to its limit. The Agency was faced with meeting demands that the existing system could not accommodate. The contracting communities ~ assurances of a continued water supply. To provide for those needs, the Agency proposed the Russian River to Cotati Intertie http://www, scwa. ca. gov/wa~rfaets/aboutus/history~_lfistory, html 3/14/02 ProjecL The project was conducted with the authority the Agency was given in the 1974 Agreement for Water Supply with the goal of continuing to provide water supplies for the contracting communities - or water contractors, as they are known - through the year 2000. The 1974 Agreement for Water Supply obligated the Agency to operate, maintain, and expand the water supply and transmission system. Expansion included the intertie pipeline from the Russian River to Cotati, additional diversion facilities at the Russian River, an inflatable dam at the diversion site to fill infiltration ponds, booster pumps, storage tanks, emergency welts, a hydroelectric plant at Warm Springs Dam, corrosion control facilities, a water quality "early warning" system, and computerized telemetry systems. The 1974 Agreement for Water Supply fixed the amount of water to be delivered to the water contractors based on their own estimated needs. The signatories to the 1974 Agreement for Water Supply were the cities of Santa Rosa, Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Sonoma, and Cotati; North Matin Water District; Valley of the Moon Water District; and Forestville Water District. An additional feature of the 1974 Agreement for Water Supply was the formation of the Water Advisory Committee. The committee includes representatives from each of the eight signatories to the 1974 Agreement for Water Supply and makes recommendations to the Agency's Board of Directors on water supply and policy issues. The Agreement for Water Supply has been amended 11 times since 1974. The Matin Municipal Water Distdct has also executed two agreements with the Agency for water supply contingent upon the entitlements of the water contractors being met.

The funding cycle and bond program has been closed due to the exhaustion of the Proposition 204, Local Water Supply Bond funds. While the bond funds have been exhausted, it is envisioned that another water supply bond program may be available in the future. It was suggested by the department of Water Resources that the feasibility study be continued as there are additional grants forth coming and a feasibility study is germane to a quick aCceptance to these grants as the3' are introduced. It was also recommended that the District should be working on refining the scope of work and organizational structure to insure early consideration if bond funding is available. A further recommendation was that the District should also accurately estimate the cost for completing the feasibility study. 4. Funding for Study and Project The District is working with the Northem and Coastal California Water Bond Initiative Coalition and has submitted a water bond-funding request for this project. The coalition hopes to prepare a projects description package that the coalition can support and the legislature and voters will approve for funding. The district made a Water-bond funding request to complete the project, environmental impact report and feasibility study is $1,000,000. Engineering and construction request is for $120,000,000. Funding is available for a feasibility study loan under Proposition 82 Local Water Supply. Presently 10 and 11 million dollars is available at an interest rate of 5.1 to 5.2 per cent.

The project would essentially divert water from the Eel River during the winter months to be pumped through a new piping system to a series of reservoirs for use by county residents during the summer months. Mr. Mayfield and Don Buta, Executive Director of the RVWD, addressed the Board of Supervisors regarding the need to pursue a feasibility study to determine the viability of this project. Attached for Council's information is the proposed resolution submitted to the Board of Supervisors, which would indicate their support for this project. At the last Board of Supervisors meeting, the resolution was pulled from the Consent Calendar, as the agenda item also indicated that the Board of Supervisors would be assuming responsibility as lead agency for this project. The County will be discussing the implications of this proposal before voting on the matter.

Amount requested: $ 3,565 Total Project Cost $ 3,565 AGENDA SUMMARY ITEM NO. 9e DATE: November 6, 2002 REPORT SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF LANDSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS AND FUNDING FOR THE GRACE HUDSON MUSEUM PARKING LOT AND ORCHARD PARK SUMMARY: In May 2002, Council awarded a landscape design and installation service contract to Sangiacomo Landscape in order to complete several major improvements at City owned properties and parking lots. However, prior to the commencement of work, projects over $10,000 require Council approval. Currently, staff is seeking approval for landscape improvements at the Grace Hudson Museum parking lot and Orchard Park. Improvements planned for the Museum consist primarily of major repairs and replanting of existing planter areas, which have either been destroyed by vandalism or degraded due to poor soil conditions. Improvements include soil amendments, irrigation upgrades and repairs, and over 120 plants for an approximately 3,500 sq. ft. area. Recommended plant selection includes plantings which are drought resistant and reflect a Native American theme consistent with the original design of the park. The total cost for the parking lot renovation is $12,160. (Continued on Page 2) RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1.

Approximately 16,000 sq. ft. of the park will be turf and 7,700 sq. ft. will be a native oak woodland that will provide a buffer between the usable turf and the freeway. Additional street tree plantings are included on the perimeter of the park strip behind the curb. Other amenities include picnic tables, trash and recycle receptacles, and a drinking fountain. A site plan of the park is provided for the Council in Attachment #3. The total cost for contractual services for this project is $22,080. Funding for the Museum parking lot and Orchard Park are available in the 140.6050.800 account, Park Development Fund. The total cost for both projects is $34,240. Currently $5,000 is budgeted for Orchard Park and no funds for the Museum parking lot. Staff is recommending $29,240 of the $96,000 currently budgeted for playground equipment replacement be reallocated to cover the cost of the landscape improvements. Additional funds for playground replacement are available in the special project reserve fund and the disbursement of per capita allocations from the 2002 Park Bond Act, which is estimated at $220,000.

Attachment 2 IApproved by: ~ AGENDA SUMMARY ITEM NO.: 9f DATE: November 6, 2002 REPORT SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF THE RESOLUTION APPROVING THE 2002 MENDOCINO COUNTY REGIONAL BIKEWAY PLAN SUMMARY: The approval of the proposed Resolution would effectively adopt the 2002 Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan, which was prepared by Dow and Associates and adopted by the Mendocino Council of Governments in August of this year. This plan is intended to incorporate and describe proposals for various bikeway improvements within the county, including those in the incorporated cities of Willits, Fort Bragg, Point Arena, and Ukiah. Specifically, it provides narrative descriptions and maps for existing and proposed bikeway projects, an outline of potential funding sources, and a description of the Short Range Implementation Plan. Included for implementation are the specific City of Ukiah bikeway programs described below, which are consistent with the Ukiah Master Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan adopted by the City Council in 1998. City staff is actively pursuing grant opportunities for funding these bikeway programs. Orchard A venue Bikeway Orchard Avenue is developing into one of the major north-south collector streets in Ukiah, extending from south of Gobbi Street to Ford Street, paralleling Route 101. South of Gobbi, Orchard Avenue is developing into a mixed-use office/residential neighborhood, with the area north of Gobbi used primarily for commercial uses, including several large commercial developments that take direct access from Orchard Avenue. (continued on Page 2) RECOMMENDED ACTION: 1. Conduct a public hearing regarding the adoption of the 2002 Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan; and 2. Adopt the Resolution approving the Plan. ALTERNATIVE COUNCIL POLICY OPTION: 1. Do not adopt the Resolution and provide direction to staff. Citizen Advised: Legal notice completed in accordance with Ukiah Municipal Code requirements Requested by: Mendocino Council of Governments Prepared by: Dave Lohse, Associate Planner, and Rick Seanor, Deputy Director of Public Works Coordinated with: Candace Horsley, City Manager, Diana Steele, Public Works Director/City Engineer, and Charley Stump, Planning Director Attachments: 1. Resolution for Adoption 2. Bikeway Descriptions 3. 2002 Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan APPROVED: Candace Horsley, 12~ty Manager The portion of the Orchard Avenue bikeway from Perkins Street to just south of Clara Avenue was developed with Class II lanes along both sides of Orchard Avenue during the construction of the Big K-Mart store project. A Class II facility is also proposed for the remaining segments, which would extend from Gobbi to Perkins and from Clara to Ford, a total distance of approximately 0.60 miles. The proposed bikeway north of Perkins Street would serve two significant shopping centers located on either side of Orchard Avenue and the residential neighborhoods along Ford and Clara Streets. The segment of Orchard Avenue south of Perkins would provide access to retail shops, residential neighborhoods, and office complexes such as the California Highway Patrol and the Department of Motor Vehicles, and would tie into an existing Class II facility on Gobbi Street. A pedestrian crossing over the Route 101 freeway to the Oak Manor neighborhood is also accessible from this area. The proposed Orr Creek Bridge will extend Orchard Avenue north from its existing terminus at Orr Creek to a connection with Brush Street. This bridge is designed to accommodate Class II bike lanes, and the development of the bike lanes described above will eventually result in Class II bike lanes along Orchard Avenue from Gobbi Street to Brush Street. Overall, the development of these Class II bike lanes would provide a north-south route through a high activity area of eastern Ukiah. Traffic volumes are significant along this route, especially north of Perkins Street, and separate bicycle lanes are considered the most appropriate form of bikeway improvement for this route. Bicycle parking is currently provided at several locations along the route. Gobbi Street Bikeway Gobbi Street is one of the three major east-west arterial streets in Ukiah, extending between Yokayo School in central Ukiah and the neighborhoods east of the freeway over an interchange with Route 101. The proposed route will provide access to residential areas, commercial activities in the central business district (via South State Street), and Yokayo Elementary School. There is currently a Class II bikeway on Gobbi Street between Main Street and Orchard Avenue. The proposed project consists of two segments, including the development of Class II improvements for the 0.32-mile segment of Gobbi Street between Main Street and Dora Street, which would connect to the Class II bikeway for Dora Street that was constructed in 1981. The City of Ukiah has secured tentative funding through the Mendocino County Air Quality Management District for the segment on Gobbi Street between Dora Street and State Street. Although there are currently no bikeway improvements on Main Street, its width and moderate use render it the preferred cycling route for north-south trips through the downtown business district. In fact, the Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan identifies a Main Street bikeway in its list of short-range implementation projects. Therefore, the Gobbi Street connectors described above will provide an important link to the Main Street route. The second section consists of the segment of Gobbi Street that extends from its intersection with Oak Manor Drive to its eastern terminus at the Little League Fields/BMX track, which will ultimately be developed by the City of Ukiah as a large, multipurpose park. This 0.44- mile segment may ultimately be developed as a Class I bikeway. In addition to this proposed segment, the City of Ukiah recently received notice of funding under the 2001-2002 cycle of the Bicycle Transportation Account for construction of Class II bike lanes on Gobbi Street between Orchard Avenue and Babcock Lane. The project will receive $91,800 in BTA funds, with a project total cost of $102,000. Agenda Summary Report for November 6, 2002 Adoption of the Resolution Approving the 2002 Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan Page 2 of 3 Main Street Bikeway Main Street, which extends from Gobbi Street to Norton Street, is an important north-south route for bicyclists passing through the downtown area. Main Street is proposed as a Class II bikeway for a total length of 0.75 miles. The proposed Main Street bikeway would connect with the existing Class II bikeway on Gobbi Street, which connects to two schools, a park, ball fields, and the BMX track. In addition, the Gobbi Street bikeway connects to the Dora Street bikeway. Empire Drive Bikeway Empire Drive is currently a missing link in the matrix of bikeways. When constructed, the Empire Drive bikeway will connect the Bush Street/Dora Street bikeway to the North State Street bikeway developed by the County of Mendocino. The Empire Drive bikeway is 0.21 mile in length. Parking would have to be eliminated from one side of Empire Drive in order to construct the proposed Class II bikeway. RECOMMENDED ACTION: ].

They provide a completely separated right-of-way for the exclusive use of bicycles and pedestrians with crossflows of motorists minimized. No motorists are permitted on Class I bikeways. An example of a Class I bikeway proposed for Ukiah is the Northwestern Pacific Rail Trail that would extend along the existing railroad right-of-way. Class fl. These facilities are commonly referred to as "bike lanes". They provide a restricted right-of-way designated for the exclusive or semi-exclusive use of bicycle traffic, with through traffic by motor vehicles or pedestrians prohibited. Adjacent vehicle parking and crossflows by motorists or pedestrians are permitted. An example of a Class II bikeway is the segment of Low Gap Road between State Street and Ukiah High School. Class III. These facilities are commonly referred to as "bike routes". They are generally on- street facilities that provide right-of-way solely through designation by signs and/or occasional pavement markings, with no distinct lanes painted onto the street surface. These lanes are shared with pedestrians and motorists and there are no restrictions to on-street parking.

This document is an update to the 2000 Bikeway Plan, and is consistent with the Goals and Policies of the Mendocino Council of Government's adopted Regional Transportation Plan. This Regional Bikeway Plan is intended to incorporate proposals for bikeway improvements within all jurisdictions of Mendocino County into one document. It is directed toward meeting the provisions of the California Bicycle Transportation Act which are included in the Streets and Highways Code Section 890 through 894.2. Bicycle facilities fall under the jurisdiction of State and local agencies. The State maintains the Statewide Bicycle System (several routes of which are in the Region) and programs improvements through the STIP process. This Regional Bikeway Plan will also provide guidance to local agencies regarding existing policies and programs which enhance the bicycle transportation mode in Mendocino County. FUNDING SOURCES In recent years, funding available for bicycle projects has continued to increase. Although the main reason for the preparation of this Regional Bikeway Plan is to qualify projects for funding under the State Bicycle Transportation Account, there are several other fimding sources available to local agencies. This Bikeway Plan will aid in selecting candidate projects for other grant funding programs as well. A description of funding sources available for bicycle related projects follows: State Bicycle Transportation Account (BTA) The State Bicycle Transportation Account (formerly Bicycle Lane Account) funds city and county projects that improve safety and convenience for bicycle commuters. BTA funds are distributed on a statewide competitive basis. In order to apply for these funds, an applicant must have an adopted bicycle transportation plan prepared pursuant to the California Bicycle Transportation Act. Use of BTA funds requires a 10% match. Recent legislation has significantly increased this funding source. Assembly Bill 1020, which passed in 1997, increased the annual $360,000 funding pot to $1 million in 1998, 1999, and 2000, $2 million in 2001 and 2002, and would have increased to $3 million in 2003, and finally to $5 million in 2004. However, the more recent passage of SB 1772 in 2000, which took effect in July 2001, increases the annual BTA funding to $7.2 million for fiscal years 2001/2002 through 2005/2006. After FY 2005/2006, the amount will be reduced to approximately $5 million annually. Per Section 893.6 of the Streets and Highways Code, no applicant shall receive more than 25% of the total amount transferred to the BTA in a single fiscal year. Regional Bikeway Plan - 1 - July 2002 Transportation Enhancement Activities (TEA) Program TEA is a Federal funding source that provides for transportation-related capital improvement projects that enhance quality-of-life, in or around transportation facilities. TEA projects must fall within twelve specific categories, including the provision of facilities for pedestrians and bicycles, the provision of safety and educational activities for pedestrians and bicyclists, and preservation of abandoned railway corridors (including the conversion and use thereof for pedestrian or bicycle trails). The TEA program is authorized by the Federal government in 6-year cycles, with the first cycle from 1991 through 1997. The program was reauthorized to cover the period from October 1997 through September 2003. It is anticipated that the program will be reauthorized for a third cycle when Congress acts on the next transportation bill. During the first TEA cycle, applicants had to compete for funding statewide. With the following cycle, however, money was distributed directly to each region to be disbursed locally. This Regional Bikeway Plan will aid in selecting candidate projects for this funding program. The next oppommity to apply for TEA funding through MCOG will likely be 2004. STIP - Bicycle & Pedestrian 5% Program In 1998, MCOG adopted a modal split funding formula which dedicated 5% of the region's State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) funding to bicycle and pedestrian projects. A total of $391,000 was awarded to local agencies for bicycle and pedestrian projects in the 2000 Regional Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) through a local, competitive process. In the 2002 STIP, bicycle and pedestrian projects received $1,262,000 in funding, which included funding reserved from the 2000 STIP Augmentation. The next oppommity to apply for this funding source will be Summer 2003. Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) Funds Regional Surface Transportation Program (RSTP) funds are apportioned by the State pursuant to Sections 182.6 d(1) and 182.6 d(2) of the Streets and Highways Code. Section 182.6 d(1) funds are distributed annually by the Mendocino Council of Governments to each local entity on a formula basis, while the State distributes Section 182.6 d(2) funds directly to the County. These funds may be used for bikeway or other local streets and roads projects. 2% TDA Bicycle and Pedestrian Program Transportation Development Act (TDA) funds are comprised of money from two sources--the Local Transportation Fund (LTF) which is derived from a ¼ cent of state sales tax and State Transit Assistance which comes from sales tax on gas and diesel. The Mendocino Council of Govemments has a Pedestrian and Bicycle Program which annually awards 2% of TDA revenues for competitively approved bicycle or pedestrian projects. Although a comparatively small source (approximately $40,000 per year), these funds may be used to provide' the local match to leverage larger grants. Regional Bikeway Plan -2- duly 2002 Safe Routes to School Program (SR2S) AB 1475, which was enacted in 1999 established the federally funded Safe Routes to Schools (SR2S) program. Grants (maximum of $500,000 per project) are available to local agencies through a statewide, competitive process for construction of bicycle and pedestrian circulation and safety and traffic calming projects. SR2S was originally approved as a 2 year demonstration program. However, legislation has recently been approved which extends SR2S for three years. The program will now sunset on January 1, 2005, unless extended by additional legislation. Caltrans expects to fund $20 million of SR2S projects per year. The local match requirement for this program is 10%. Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Grants The Office of Traffic Safety provides bicycle and pedestrian grants to assist local agencies with safety and educational programs, including bicycle rodeos and bicycle helmet distribution programs. Grants are based on a statewide competitive bases, and not available for construction of bikeway facilities. SETTING Mendocino County is located in the north coast region, nestled between the beautiful wine country and majestic redwoods of northern California. The county is situated along the Pacific Ocean and bordered inland by the counties of Humboldt, Trinity, Tehama, Glenn, Lake and Sonoma. The county is located wholly within the northem Coastal Range of California. This mountain system consists of long, parallel ridges which trend fi.om southeast to northwest. The mountainous nature of the County is interrupted in some inland areas by river valleys and lake basins. Along the coast, flat land is limited to narrow stretches of marine terraces. The climate is particularly varied, and influenced heavily by the Pacific Ocean and local topOgraphy. Specifically, there are four climatic zones which mn in bands fi.om the Coast, eastward. Each of the climatic zones have certain characteristics but, in general, the Mendocino County climate is cooler and much wetter than most other areas of California. The 3,610 square miles of Mendocino County are predominately rural. Agriculture, construction, and tourist related services provide the mainstay of the local economy. Land use policies tend to protect agricultural and forestlands, thereby preserving the rural nature of the county. The majority of the population resides within the fertile Yokayo Valley where Ukiah, the largest city and County seat, is located. Fort Bragg, the County's second largest city, and Point Arena are located along Highway 1. The County's other population center, Willits, is located just north of Ukiah. Willits and Ukiah are served by State Highway 101 which is part of the Statewide Bicycle System. State Highway 1, which is part of the legislatively designated Pacific Coast Bike Route, and State Highway 20 serve the scenic coastline. Regional Bikeway Plan - 3 - July 2002 The 2000 US Census placed Mendocino County population at 86,265. This figure includes an unincorporated population of 58,195 and an incorporated population of 28,070. Four cities share the incorporated population: Ukiah (15,497), Fort Bragg (7,026), Willits (5,073), and Point Arena (474). BIKEWAYS IN MENDOClNO COUNTY As used in this plan, "bikeway" means all facilities that provide for bicycle travel. Bikeways are categorized as follows: Class L These facilities are commonly referred to as "bike paths". They provide a completely separated right-of-way for the exclusive use of bicycles and pedestrians with crossflows of motorists minimized. Class I bikeways will have limited application in Mendocino County. Their primary function will be to provide a link between other bikeways where other facilities are impractical, or to provide a direct route to a specific destination (such as a park). Class I bikeways are generally expensive to construct and maintain. Right-of-way must be obtained and the facility must be built with sufficient width and pavement design strength to support maintenance vehicles. Providing Class I facilities through areas where there are visual obstructions also poses some security concerns. Class It. These facilities are commonly referred to as "bike lanes". They provide a restricted right-of-way designated for the exclusive or semi-exclusive use of bicycle traffic, with through travel by motor vehicles or pedestrians prohibited. Adjacent vehicle parking and crossflows by pedestrians and motorists are permitted. Class II bikeways will have significant application in Mendocino County. They will be used to provide for bicycle travel where vehicle speeds, volumes or other conditions are present which make it desirable to separate bicycle traffic from motorized traffic. Class II bikeways are generally provided adjacent to existing roadways. Right-of-way costs are usually minimal, but drainage improvements, grading and utility relocation can be significant. Experience in construction of Class II bikeways in similar rural counties indicates that construction of this type of facility adjacent to existing roadways ranges between $400,000 and $800,000 per mile. Variations in cost can be a result of complexity of a project, extensive design and engineering work, fight of way acquisition, time delays, and whether bikeways are being constructed on one or both sides of a road. Class Iff. These facilities are commonly referred to as "bike routes". They are generally on-street facilities 'which provide right-of-way designated by signs and/or pavement markings and are shared with pedestrians and motorists. Regional Bikeway Plan -4- July 2002 Class III bikeways will have significant application in Mendocino County. They will be used to provide links between other bikeways and as the primary bikeway facility in rural areas. Improvements required to establish Class III facilities may be minimal because right-of- way is shared with vehicular traffic. Shoulder widening may be advisable in some areas, but improvements could be limited to signing and pavement marking installations. In the previous fifteen years, there have been four constructed bikeways in Mendocino County. They are the Little Lake Road project in Mendocino (1987), the Lake Mendocino Drive project near Ukiah (Phase I in 1989 and Phase II in 1998), Phase I of the North State Street bikeway in Ukiah in 1999, and a portion of Vichy Springs Road in 2002, and Orchard Avenue in Ukiah in __. Prior to this time frame, bikeway projects have been constructed in the following areas: Wi#its East Commercial Street Fort Brag.q Harrison Street Harold Street Fir Avenue Maple Avenue' Lincoln Avenue Ukiah Low Gap Road Bush Street Dora Street Grove Avenue Gobbi Street Despina Drive County' Hensley Creek Road (Mendocino College) Simpson Lane (near Fort Bragg) NON-MOTORIZED TRANSPORTATION POLICIES The Policy Element of the Regional Transportation Plan establishes goals and policies for each of the several transportation modes which comprise the transportation system in Mendocino County. Bicycle transportation is addressed in the Non-Motorized Transportation Mode of the Regional Transportation Plan. The goal for non-motorized transportation is: Goal 2.08(a) Provide an adequate, functional and safe system of local trails and bikeways coordinated on a local and regional basis. Such system should be coordinated with other transportation modes to provide for both area and regional non-motorized transportation needs of the County. Regional Bikeway Plan -5- July 2002 Policies and objectives which pertain to non-motorized transportation in Mendocino County are identified below: Policy 2.08(b) . Consistent with other regional priorities and financial constraints, the regional system of trails and bikeways should accommodate the general mobility needs of both commuter bicyclists and other recreational users. . Implementation of projects and development of facilities should be consistent with the Regional Bikeway Plan and County Trails Plan as set forth in the Recreational Element of the General Plan, based upon established need and available funding. . Support the widening of existing State, County, and City roads/streets to accommodate non-motorized travel when consistent with area needs, regional priorities, and financial resources. Special emphasis should be given to routes where shared use creates a significant safety problem. . . All new highway construction projects shall consider facilities for non-motorized travel based upon justification, operational feasibility and funding constraints. Encourage State and Local Agencies to seek out additional sources of funding for needed non-motorized projects. . Encourage local agencies/businesses to install bicycle parking when found warranted, environmentally acceptable and consistent with the General Plan. Objectives 2.08(c): Annually allocate 2% of TDA funds for bicycle and pedestrian projects to stimulate development and improvement of non-motorized facilities. 2. Biennially update the Regional Bikeway Plan. . Systematic improvement of State Route 1, where environmentally feasible to accommodate bicycle traffic. 4. Identification of enhanced statewide funding sources for bikeway improvements. REQUIRED PLAN ELEMENTS Streets and Highways Code Section 891.2 identifies elements which must be addressed in a bicycle transportation plan in order to comply with the California Bicycle Transportation Act. There are eleven elements which must be addressed. The Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan addresses each of these elements either through narrative, tables, or maps. Regional Bikeway Plan - 6- July 2002 Each of the eleven required elements (a through k) is restated below as it appears in Section 891.2 of the Streets and Highways Code. Immediately below each element there is a response which indicates how this plan addresses the element.

The plan area covered by the Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan consists of all of Mendocino County, including the four incorporated cities: Ukiah, Fort Bragg, Willits and Point Arena. Bicycle traffic volumes have not been recorded within the County on any of the proposed bikeway routes. Estimates of existing and future bicycle commuter use have been prepared for those bikeways on the Short Range Bicycle Implementation Plan. Bicycle use estimates are based upon the proposed bikeway's relationship to major attractors such as schools, government offices and major employers, central business districts, shopping centers and parks. Due to the mml nature of Mendocino County and the lack of existing bikeway facilities, current and future bikeway use will be low compared with urban standards.

Maps are grouped by jurisdiction. Brief descriptions of proposed bikeways are provided in narratives which accompany each map or series of maps. Regional Bikeway Plan - 7- July 2002 (d) (e) The Inventory of Proposed Bikeways section of this plan identifies all bikeway projects that have been previously proposed by the County of Mendocino, and the cities of Ukiah, Fort Bragg, Willits and Point Arena. The existing bikeways in Mendocino County are: East Commercial Street (Willits); Harrison Street, Harold Street, Fir Avenue, Maple Avenue, Lincoln Avenue (Ft. Bragg); Low Gap Road, Bush Street, Dora Street, Grove Avenue, Gobbi Street, Despina Drive, a portion of Orchard Avenue (Ukiah); and the County's bikeways at Little Lake Road (Mendocino); Hensley Creek Road and Lake Mendocino Drive Phases I and II (Ukiah area), Simpson Lane (Fort Bragg area), Phase I of North State Street (Ukiah area) and a portion Vichy Springs Road (Ukiah area). Existing bikeways are shown on a series of maps contained in the Existing Bikeways section of this plan. Existing bikeways are also identified in blue on maps in the Short Range Implementation Plan. All other bikeways shown in this plan are proposed. A map and description of existing and proposed end-of-trip bicycle parking facilities. These shall include, but not be limited to, parking at schools, shopping centers, public buildings, and major employment centers. Existing and proposed bicycle parking facilities are depicted on maps for the priority bikeway projects in the Short Range Bikeway Implementation Plan. See maps of each priority bikeway project for details. Most existing bicycle parking facilities are located at schools. As many as half of the bikeway projects identified in the Short Range Implementation Plan are routes which directly serve the commuting needs of students. Where descriptions of parking facilities are needed, they are provided in the narrative description of each priority bikeway project. A map and description of existing and proposed bicycle transport and parking facilities for connections with and use of other transportation modes. These shall include, but not be limited to, parking facilities at transit stops, rail and transit terminals, ferry docks and landings, park and ride lots, and provisions for transporting bicyclists and bicycles on transit or rail vehicles or ferry vessels. Public transportation in Mendocino County is provided by the Mendocino Transit Authority, which through a Joint Powers Agreement with the four incorporated cities and the County of Mendocino, is the public transit provider in Mendocino County. Bicycles may be transported on all inland and coastal MTA buses except South of the Ukiah Library due to several tight roms in downtown Ukiah. Each bus with bicycle transporting capability has a two-bicycle capacity rack, which is available on a first- come, first-served basis. Regional Bikeway Plan - 8- July 2002 (0 There are no formal "park and ride" lots in Mendocino County, and no bicycle parking facilities are provided by MTA at bus stops. MTA is currently in the process of developing a transit center on the outskirts of North Ukiah. Construction is anticipated to take place in late 2003. The transit center will serve as a link for all local and regional public transit routes, plus Greyhound, AMTRAK, and the Mendocino Stage. In addition, the transit center will provide bicycle racks for bicyclists connecting to any of these services. A location map of this project is shown in Figure 1. An intermodal facility is also being developed in Willits by the California Westem Railroad in conjunction with the City of Willits. The project will convert the existing Califomia Western Railroad depot building into an intermodal facility providing shelter, ticket sales, restroom facilities and seating areas for users of multiple transportation modes, including bicyclists. In addition, a new intermodal parking facility will be developed which will include bicycle racks. These facilities, once completed, will provide a point for bicyclists to connect to other modes of transportation. A location map for this project is shown in Figure 2. A map and description of existing and proposed facilities for changing and storing clothes and equipment. These shall include, but not be limited to, locker, restroom, and shower facilities near bicycle parking facilities. The bikeway system in Mendocino County is in its infancy. It will be several years before components of an interconnected bikeway system will begin to emerge. In the past, the possibility of obtaining discretionary state Bicycle Lane Account grants and Transportation Enhancement Activities (TEA) funding were the only significant and consistent sources of funding with which to continue bikeway development in Mendocino County, therefore only basic bikeway system needs were considered. Now that there are additional potential bikeway funding sources available, the local emphasis will continue to focus on basic bicycle commute needs by constructing bikeway segments whenever funding can be obtained. Ancillary facilities will be a secondary consideration until a basic integrated system has been provided. Furthermore, in Mendocino County, existing and potential commute ridership demand is dominated by the home to school (and return) trip. Clothes changing and storage facilities, lockers, and showers are clearly not needed to support the primary commute ridership demand. There are no existing or proposed facilities for storing clothing or equipment at the present time. However, the following limited facilities, once completed, could be utilized by bicyclists for changing of clothing only. Regional Bikeway Plan - 9 - July 2002 co_ RD. ST. I-,RO~-~ LOCATION Figure 1. City of Ukiah, MTA North Ukiah Transit Center Regional Bikeway Plan -10- July 2002 · FigUre 2. July 2002 The Point Arena Coastal Access Scenic Bikeway, which is anticipated to be constructed in 2004, will include a restroom at its hub along Main Street, in the City of Point Arena as part of the project. There are currently bathroom facilities at Arena Cove, near the location that the bikeway will end upon completion. Any of these facilities could be used by bicyclists for changing clothing. However, no storage facilities will be provided. A location map for this project is shown in Figure 11 in the Short Range Plan. In addition, an intermodal facility is being developed in Willits by the Califomia Westem Railroad in conjunction with the City of Willits (discussed previously under item f). The project will convert the existing California Western Railroad depot building into an intermodal facility for public use. The facility will include restrooms which could be utilized by bicyclists. However, no storage facilities will be provided at this location either. A location map for this project is shown in Figure 2. A description of bicycle safety and education programs conducted in the area included within the plan, efforts by the law enforcement agency having primary traffic law enforcement responsibility in the area to enforce provisions of the Vehicle Code pertaining to bicycle operation, and the resulting effect on accidents involving bicyclists. The following summarizes the involvement of law enforcement agencies within Mendocino County and the incorporated cities of Ukiah, Fort Bragg, and Willits regarding their involvement with bicycle safety, education and enforcement issues. Califomia Highway Patrol The CHP covers over 1100 miles of County roadway in Mendocino County. They have no formal bicycle education program, however, they do provide safety presentations to schools or community groups (boy scouts, churches, etc.), upon request, which include discussion of bicycle laws, safety tips and distribution of brochures. The Department will assist other local agencies with bicycle rodeos or similar activities if adequate personnel is available. A mandatory bicycle helmet enforcement program went into effect in January 1995, and citations or verbal warnings are issued as needed. If an offender is under the age of 16, a citation will be issued. However, rather than notifying the courts, the parents will be informed of bicycle safety requirements and will be referred to low cost/no cost helmet program if necessary. There were nine reported accidents involving bicycles in 1999, fifteen in 2000, nine in 2001 and so far there have been three in 2002. However, the change in numbers of accidents is not believed to be a result of enforcement of safety provisions or education efforts. City of Fort Bra.qg Police Det)artment The City of Fort Bragg Police Department has no formal bicycle safety education program. Most bicycle safety education efforts within the City of Fort Bragg, including an annual bicycle rodeo, are coordinated by the Coast Regional Bikeway Plan -12- July 2002 Police Activities League (see below). The Department does have safety pamphlets available as well as a limited number of free bicycle helmets available for distribution to children under the age of 18. In addition, members of the Police Department participate in bicycle safety/education ~ictivities conducted by PAL (see below). A bicycle registration program is in effect, at a cost of $1.00 per bicycle. This fee can be waived, if the registrant is unable to pay. The helmet law is enforced through verbal warnings and citations. For juveniles, the first violation is followed by a written warning to parents, with subsequent violations resulting in regular citations. Coast Po/ice Activities Leaque The Coast Police Activities League, which is comprised of law enforcement from the City of Fort Bragg, Point Arena and Mendocino, as well as members of the Coast Guard, State Parks, and California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, holds a bicycle rodeo once a year in the Fort Bragg area. Attendees of the rodeo learn about bicycle safety and laws, participate in a course designed to teach safe maneuvering of bicycles, receive safety inspections of their bicycles, and can receive free helmets and written materials on bicycle safety. .City of Wi#its Police Department This agency also has no formal bicycle safety education program, however, does provide written safety pamphlets for the public. The bicycle helmet law is enforced with either verbal warnings or citations, as needed. A bicycle rodeo is held in Willits once a year as part of a Health Fair, which is sponsored by State Farm Insurance, at Howard Memorial Hospital. In addition, the City Police Department provides bicycle helmets to low-income children through a special program at Christmas time. Mendocino County Sheriff This agency depends upon the cities of Ukiah, Willits, and Fort Bragg, and the California Highway Patrol to cover bicycle safety issues for their areas, however, they do contract with the City of Point Arena to cover various law enforcement needs for their area. No statistics were available, however, the helmet law is enforced in Point Arena with verbal warnings or citations, as necessary. In June, 1998, the Sheriff's Department held a bicycle rodeo at Bi-Lo Market in south Ukiah, coordinated with the City of Ukiah and the California Highway Patrol. Safety checks were conducted by local bicycle shops, and prizes and helmets were awarded. In June, 2000, a bicycle rodeo (coordinated with local law enforcement) was held at the Consolidated Tribal Health Project in Calpella. The Sheriff's Department is not currently conducting any bicycle rodeos and does not have a bicycle safety education program. The Sheriff' s Department's Fort Bragg office does have a limited number of free helmets available for distribution. In addition, members of the Sheriff's Department participate in bicycle safety/education activities conducted by PAL (see above). City of Ukiah Police Department The City of Ukiah Police Department conducts a bicycle education program through the use' of videos, literature and presentations to Regional Bikeway Plan - 13 - July 2002 schools and other groups (about 2 to 4 per year). Presentations, which include power point slide shows, are given by a Community Services Officer and are made at the request of the school or group. The Department also participates in bicycle education activities sponsored by other agencies, such as bicycle rodeos held by State Farm Insurance and Consolidated Tribal Health, and the annual Walk and Roll Festival (see below). The City also conducts a very successful low-cost helmet program. These safety and education programs, including the helmet program, are funded through the City's proceeds from the drug asset forfeiture program. Bicycle laws are enforced through citations and fines. Juvenile offenders are required to participate in a bicycle safety class held one weekend per month by the Department's cadet program in lieu of paying fmes. This program has been recently inactive due to the city's diminished cadet program. However, the cadet program has just experienced an increase and the program will be reinstated. No statistics were available regarding citations or bicycle safety were available. Ukiah Walk & Roll Festival The Walk & Roll Festival is a week-long, annual event in the City of Ukiah held in conjunction with Califomia Bike Commute Week and Clean Air Month. The Festival is organized by an informal group which includes staff' of MTA, Mendocino County Air Quality Management District, the City of Ukiah and MCOG. The event is sponsored by various local businesses and public agencies. Activities include a bike show, recreational rides, and training rides, a low cost helmet program, as well as entertainment. While safety and education are not the primary purpose of the event, it does heighten the community's awareness of bicyclists and safety concerns. (h) A description of the extent of citizen and community involvement in development of the plan, including, but not limited to, letters of support. The Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan is a compendium of bikeway planning efforts in Mendocino County, and includes the bikeway improvement priorities of the County and all four cities. The Mendocino Council of Governments' Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), (comprised of one representative from each of the four incorporated cities, the County Department of Transportation, the County Planning Director, the MTA General Manager, Caltrans, plus Air Quality and Rail representatives) has reviewed this Regional Bikeway Plan to ensure that their respective jurisdictions' top priorities were addressed, and recommended adoption of the plan by the Regional Transportation Planning Agency (MCOG). The County's inland bicycle club "Ukiah Wheeler's Bicycle Club" is no longer actively meeting, however, members of MCOG's Technical Advisory Committee are also members of the bicycle club, and therefore, have had the oppommity to review this plan. This Regional Bikeway Plan was adopted by the Mendocino Council of Governments at a legally noticed public hearing on August 5, 2002. Regional Bikeway Plan -14- July 2002 fi) ti) A description of how the bicycle transportation plan has been coordinated and is consistent with other local or regional transportation, air quality, or energy conservation plans, including, but not limited to, programs that provide incentives for bicycle commuting. The Mendocino County Regional Bikeway Plan is based upon bikeway projects proposed by the County of Mendocino and the cities of Ukiah, Fort Bragg, Willits and Point Arena, and as such, is consistent with their local general plans. Priority projects identified in the Short Range Bikeway Implementation Plan are consistent with Mendocino County's 1996 Regional Transportation Plan. The Mendocino County Air Basin is in attainment of State air quality standards. As a rural county, there are no Congestion Management Plans or bicycle commuting incentive programs in effect. A description of the projects proposed in the plan and a listing of their priorities for implementation. Bikeway improvement projects which are considered highest priority regionwide are described in the Short Range Bikeway Implementation Plan segment of this plan. There are 15 priority bikeway projects in the Short Range Bikeway Implementation Plan. The order in which they are identified below does not imply an established countywide priority: Jurisdiction ~ity of Point Arena City of Point Arena City of Willits City of Willits City of Willits City of Willits City of Fort Bragg City of Fort Bragg City of Ukiah City of Ukiah City of Ukiah City of Ukiah County of Mendocino County of Mendocino County of Mendocino County of Mendocino County of Mendocino Project Coastal Access Scenic Bikeway Iverson Avenue West Commercial Street Northwestern Pacific Rail-Trail Walnut Street Baechtel Road Pudding Creek Trestle/Otis Johnson Park Otis Johnson Park/School Orchard Avenue Gobbi Street Main Street Empire Drive Lake Mendocino Drive West Road Vichy Springs Road School Way North State Street Regional Bikeway Plan -15- July 2002 (k) A description of past expenditures for bicycle facilities and furore f'mancial needs for projects that improve safety and convenience for bicycle commuters in the plan area.

Commercial Street, Willits The TDM program is no longer available. Pending Project Applications Safe Routes to Schools. Applications for the third Safe Routes to Schools (SR2S) funding cycle are due to Caltrans May 31, 2002. No agencies within the County received funding in the second SR2S cycle and only one pedestrian project received funding in the first cycle. Mendocino County has submitted an application for the current cycle that, if approved, will provide an improved link between Eagle Peak Middle School and Redwood Valley Elementary School in Redwood Valley. Although primarily pedestrian improvements, it is believed that the project will aid bicyclists as well. Bicycle Transportation Account Applications for the 02/03 cycle of Bicycle Transportation Account funding is due to Caltrans on May 31, 2002, and applications for the 03/04 cycle will be due December 1, 2002. For Fiscal year 02/03 and 03/04 the maximum amount an applicant can receive is $1.8 million. Mendocino County has submitted two bikeway applications: Redwood Valley Elementary School and Eagle Peak Middle School vicinity (Redwood Valley area); and Lake Mendocino Drive, Phase III (Ukiah area). Future Costs Estimated costs to implement all proposed projects in the Mendocino County 'Regional Bike Plan are far more than are expected to be available. Ranges of costs are provided below for classes of bikeways based on experience of providing these facilities in similar mml counties. Costs below are for construction of Short Range Bikeway Implementation Plan projects only. These costs should be considered very rough estimates.

It serves local as well as commercial traffic. During most of the year, there is also considerable tourist and recreational traffic due to the coastal access provided by Port Road and commercial activities at the pier. Port Road is narrow and lacks shoulders along most of its alignment. Several years ago, shoulders were improved and a Class III facility was developed. Increased activity due to development of the pier at Arena Cove rendered the Class III facility to be inadequate and perhaps unsafe. A Class II bikeway has been proposed within the Port Road corridor to meet the non-motorized transportation needs of local as well as recreational traffic. It will parallel Port Road and then connect with either an existing partially developed trail north of Port Road or through an easement connecting Port Street to the City's Park area. This Coastal Access Scenic Bikeway would link the commercial area of central Point Arena with the commercial and recreational activity center at Arena Cove. This project was awarded funding in December 1999. The project received $315,000 in STIP funding ($56,000 from the 5% Bike and Pedestrian Program and $259,000 "borrowed" from the Rail Mode), $111,000 in TEA funds, combined with a $37,000 local match for a project total of $463,000. Although the project has experienced setbacks due to environmental constraints, construction is anticipated to take place in 2004. Note: This bikeway was formerly called the Port Road Corridor Bikeway. Iverson Road Bikeway Iverson Road provides access from State Route 1 to Arena Cove via Port Road. It is only approximately 0.25 miles in length, but carries the bulk of the commercial and recreational traffic bound for Arena Cove. Iverson Road is signed as a "Coastal Access" point at its junction with Route 1. Class II bike lane development would be appropriate for this roadway. It is narrow and lacks sufficient shoulders to accommodate safe pedestrian and bicycle travel at this time. The Class II facility could tie into the proposed Class II facility parallel to Port Road to provide a continuous route from the south end of Point Arena to Arena Cove.

It is one of the busiest east-west streets in the Willits street system. West Commercial Street links State Route 101 and downtown with neighborhoods in northwest Willits. A Class II bikeway is proposed for West Commercial Street. It would extend from the Route 101 intersection to North Street, a distance of approximately 0.20 miles. A Class II facility has also been proposed for North Street. Completion of the West Commercial Street project would tie into a furore North Street project to provide bikeway access to neighborhoods in the area as well as Brookside Elementary School. The school takes access from Mendocino Avenue. A Class III facility has been proposed for Mendocino Avenue. Downtown Willits is severely impacted by congestion on Route 101. Much of the congestion is caused by the interaction of through traffic with local traffic. Projects which would provide non- motorized alternatives for local trips would help to ease the local congestion problem. Northwestern Pacific Rail- Trail This Class I bike path would provide an important north-south link for bicyclists on the east side of town, starting at the Willits High School and eventually terminating at East Hill Road. The railroad right-of-way alignment is already well used by pedestrians and bicyclists, especially between East Valley and East Commercial Streets. Field observation reveals that a pathway could be constructed at least 15 feet from the centerline of the railroad tracks, which is the minimum distance most rail-trails are set back from active tracks. The proposed length of the rail-trail bike path would be 9,900' (1.9 miles) and it could be constructed in the following phases: (1) East Commercial Street to High School (1,500', $135,000); (2) San Francisco Avenue to East Commercial Street (1,900', $240,000); Shell Lane to San Francisco Avenue (3,500', $455,000) and (4) East Hill Road to Shell Lane (3,000', $385,000). A rail-trail bike path on the east side of town would provide a viable transportation alternative to the traffic congestion created on Route 101. It would also provide recreational oppommities. Eventual build-out of the southeast annexation area, including industrial and residential uses, will require this alternative transportation system to help reduce potential vehicular impacts that are associated with urban development. Wa/nut Street/Locust Street Bikeway Walnut Street is an east-west collector street in the Willits street system. It provides access to a neighborhood of southwest Willits which lies to the west of State Route 101 and south of the California Western rail lines. Holly Street is a short north-south collector which serves the same area. Regional Bikeway Plan 41 July 2002 A Class II bikeway is proposed for Walnut Street and the city maintained portion of Locust Street. The facility would provide bikeway access from the busy Route 101 corridor to the residential neighborhood and specifically to Baechtel Grove School. The total length of the project is approximately 0.50 miles. Future plans are to construct a Class II bikeway along Holly Street to provide a bikeway loop in the area. Willits is severely impacted by congestion on Route 101. Much of the congestion is caused by the intersection of through traffic with local traffic. Projects which would provide non- motorized alternatives for local trips would help to ease the local congestion problem. Baechtel Road/East Hill Road Bikeway, Baechtel Road is a north-south collector street which serves southeast Willits. It provides a semi-circle parallel bypass of a portion of State Route 101 which is much less congested than the highway corridor. It bisects a mixed-used residential, commercial and industrial area of the city. It also provides access to the unincorporated area of southeast Little Lake Valley via East Hill Road. Class II bikeways are proposed for Baechtel Road and the city portion of East Hill Road. The Baechtel Road portion would entail development of approximately 0.92 miles of bikeway. The East Hill Road portion would extend approximately 0.50 miles. Commercial, residential, and industrial areas along Baechtel Road as well as residential areas to the east would be served by this facility. Long term plans for the County portion of East Hill Road (CR 301) involve development into a Class III bikeway facility. ' Willits is severely impacted by congestion on Route 101. Much of the congestion is caused by the interaction of through traffic with local traffic. Projects which would provide non-motorized alternatives for local trips would help to ease the local congestion problem. Regional Bikeway Plan 42 July 2002 W LLITS Figure 14.

It will also tie into a segment of the California Coastal Trail at the trestle. As proposed, the bikeway route would be a combination of Class I, Class II and Class III facilities. An existing 0.17 mile Class II segment of Harold Street would be used as well as an existing 0.33 mile segment of Class III improvements on Fir Street. New Class I or II facilities would be placed on the 0.50 mile segment from the trestle to Elm Street. Class III improvements on existing city streets would consist of 0.18 miles on Elm Street, 0.25 miles on Franklin Street. and 0.21 miles on Laurel Street. ' The route would serve Fort Bragg Middle School and neighborhoods of northwest Fort Bragg. It would provide a non-motorized transportation alternative for the city. Downtown Fort Bragg experiences considerable congestion due to the interaction of through and local traffic on State Route 1. Projects which would provide non-motorized alternatives for local trips would help to ease the local congestion problem. Otis Johnson Park/Dana Street Bikewag The Otis Johnson Park/Dana Street Bikeway would provide a link within central Fort Bragg. Neighborhoods in the north would be linked to those in the south. Development of the route would connect Dana Gray Elementary School and Fort Bragg High School with the park. Fort Bragg Middle School lies immediately north and would be accessible by an existing Class II bikeway on Harold Street. The proposed facility would consist of Class III bikeway improvements on four city streets. An existing Class II segment of Harold Street (0.14 miles) would also be used. New Class llI improvements would be required on Cedar Street (0.45 miles), Rasmussen Lane (0.17 miles) (or an alternate link between Oak and Cedar), and Dana Street (0.49 miles). If not already improved as a component of the Pudding Creek Trestle/O.J. Park Bikeway, a 0.21 mile segment of Laurel Street must also be improved to Class Ill standards. Downtown Fort Bragg experiences considerable congestion due to the interaction of through and local traffic on State Route 1. Projects which would provide non-motorized alternatives for local trips would help to ease the local congestion problem. Local commute traffic in central Fort Bragg would be served by this facility.

It now extends from south of Gobbi Street to Ford Street, paralleling Route 101. South of Gobbi Street, it is developing into a mixed use office/residential neighborhood. The established area north of Gobbi is primarily commercial, with several large commercial developments taking direct access from Orchard Avenue. The portion of this bikeway from Perkins Street to just south of Clara Avenue has been completed (Class II along both sides of Orchard Avenue) as a result of the Big K-Mart store project. A Class II facility is proposed for the remaining segments from Gobbi to Perkins, and from Clara to Ford Street, a distance of approximately 0.60 miles. The proposed bikeway would serve two significant shopping centers which are located at opposing comers of the Perkins Street intersection. The California Highway Patrol and Department of Motor Vehicles offices are also located along this rome. Several smaller business activities are located east of Orchard and south of Perkins. A pedestrian crossing of the Route 101 freeway to the Oak Manor neighborhood is also accessible from this area. .. The proposed route would tie into an existing Class II facility on Gobbi Street. It would provide a north-south route through a high activity area of east Ukiah. Traffic volumes are significant, especially north of Perkins Street. Separate bicycle lanes are considered the most appropriate form of bikeway improvement for this route. Bicycle parking is currently provided at several locations along the route. Gobbi Street Bikeway Gobbi Street is one of the three major east-west arterial streets in Ukiah. It provides direct access to central Ukiah from an interchange with Route 101, as well as neighborhoods east of the freeway. The proposed rome would provide access to residential areas, commercial activities in the central business district (via South State Street), and Yokayo Elementary School. There currently is an existing Class II bikeway on Gobbi Street between Main Street and Orchard Avenue. The proposed project consists of two segments and extends for approximately 0.76 mile. Class II improvements are proposed for the segment of Gobbi Street between Dora Street and Main Street, a distance of 0.32 miles. The new bikeway would have its western terminus at Dora Street. The City of Ukiah has secured tentative funding through the Mendocino County Air Quality Management District for the segment on Gobbi Street between Dora Street and State Street. A Class II bikeway was constructed on Dora Street (which parallels State Street) in 1981. Main Street is at the eastern terminus of the proposed project. Although there are no bikeway improvements on Main Street, its width and moderate use render it to be the preferred cycling route for north-south trips through the downtown business district. The second segment extends on Gobbi Street from Oak Manor Drive to the eastern terminus of Gobbi Street at the Little League Fields/BMX track. This segment, a length of 0.44 miles, may Regional Bikeway Plan 52 July 2002 ultimately be developed as a Class I bikeway. The City of Ukiah recently received notice of funding under the 2001-2002 cycle of the Bicycle Transportation Account for construction of Class II bikeways on Gobbi Street between Orchard Avenue and Oak Manor Drive. The project will receive $91,800 in BTA funds with a project total of $102,000. Main Street Bikeway Main Street serves as an important link connecting Gobbi Street to Norton Street. Bicyclists are able to use this street as an alternate route, north-south, through the downtown area. Main Street is proposed as a Class II bikeway for a total length of' 0.75 miles. The proposed Main Street bikeway would connect with the existing Class II bikeway on Gobbi Street. The Gobbi Street bikeway connects to two schools, a park, ball fields, and the BMX track. In addition, the Gobbi Street bikeway connects to the Dora Street bikeway. .Empire Drive Bikeway Empire Drive is currently a missing link in bikeways. When constructed, the Empire Drive bikeway will connect the Bush Street/Dora Street bikeway to the North State Street bikeway. The Empire Drive bikeway is 0.21 mile in length. Parking would need to be eliminated from one side of Empire Drive in order to construct the proposed Class II bikeway. Regional Bikeway Plan 53 July 2002 Figure 22.

City of Ukiah Land Use Map (UV General Plan & Growth Management Program) Regional Bikeway Plan 58 July 2002 County of Mendocino North State Street (CR 104) Bikeway North State Street extends northward 8.56 miles from the Ukiah City Limits to its intersection with US 101 west of Redwood Valley. For the first couple of miles, this is the most heavily traveled road in the County Maintained System. Several residential neighborhoods, a shopping center, numerous commercial and industrial sites, and Mendocino Community College are accessed from North State Street. The traffic volumes and speeds along this route warrant the installation of dedicated bike lanes. In 1999 a Class II bikeway was constructed on North State Street from the Ford Road/Empire Drive intersection to the point north of the US 101 overpass where the roadway narrows from four lanes to two lanes. The Class II bikeway is proposed to be extended northward an additional 1.49 miles to Lake Mendocino Drive at The Forks. Via connections to existing bike lanes it will link Ukiah with Mendocino College and Lake Mendocino. Lake Mendocino Drive (CR 227B) Bikeway Lake Mendocino Drive extends eastward from the US 101 freeway to Lake Mendocino. It provides access to commercial, industrial, and residential neighborhoods near The Forks and to recreational facilities at the lake. Motor vehicle connection to Ukiah is available either on North State Street or US 101. Bicycle's must connect using North State Street, a designated bike route. The bike route on North State Street continues northward from the Lake Mendocino Drive intersection, providing access to Calpella and Redwood Valley. Existing Class II bikeways run along both sides of Lake Mendocino Drive from North State Street to East Side Calpella Road and along the north side from there to the Lake Mendocino Recreation Area. A Class I1 bikeway 0.44 mile long is proposed on the south side of Lake Mendocino Drive between East Side Calpella Road the Lake Mendocino Recreation Area. ,Vich¥ Sorin.os Road (CR 215) Bikeway Vichy Springs Road is the primary route connecting the City of Ukiah and the US 101 freeway to several residential subdivisions east of the Russian River. It also provides access to the Vichy Springs Resort as well as a recreation and fishing access site at the Russian River bridge. A bikeway is proposed easterly on Vichy Springs Road from the Ukiah City Limits to the intersection of Redemeyer Road. The 0.59 mile long segment from the City to Watson Road will be Class II. From there to Redemeyer Road it will be Class III. Note: In May 2002 the County learned that this project was a successful applicant in the BTA program. The project was awarded $201,000 in BTA funds with a project total of $224, 000. Regional Bikeway Plan 59 June 2002 School Way (CR 236) Bikeway School Way runs between East Road and West Road in Redwood Valley. It is on the most direct route from the northeastern and central parts Redwood Valley to the US 101 freeway and its intersection with East Road is the commercial center of the valley. The fire house and Post Office are also located at this intersection. School Way provides direct access to the Redwood Valley Elementary School and takes its name from that facility. A 0.89 mile long Class II bikeway is proposed on School Way between West Road and East Road. It will connect existing and proposed bikeway facilities on either end and provide a safer route for student, commuter and recreational bicycle riders. West Road (CR 237) Bikeway West Road begins at Uva Drive, south of the US 101 freeway interchange, and extends northward 3.77 miles to the intersection with East Road and Tomki Road.. Traffic on West Road has increased considerably since it became the freeway access route for the west side of Redwood Valley and the residential areas up Tomki Road in 1991. The opening of the Eagle Peak Middle School in 1998 further increased the need. for dedicated bicycle lanes on this road. A proposed 3.32 miles long Class II bikeway, from School Way north to the East Road/Tomki Road intersection, will connect the residential areas along West Road with three area schools and, via School Way, the commercial center of Redwood Valley. The West Road bikeway will be constructed in phases, the first phase, a 0.89 mile segment from School Way to Road M, will provide safer access to and from Eagle Peak Middle School on West Road and, via connections with other bikeways, to the Redwood Valley Elementary School on School Way and the Deep Valley Christian School on Uva Drive.

MLIOr. 101602 ~ Mendocino County Martin Luther King Jr. Organization REGARDING OVERVIEW OF MLK: Mendocino County Martin Luther King, Jr. Organization (McMLK) McMLK was founded in 1994 (Co-Founder, LaCretia Peoples), because there was a need for a public community event to celebrate the National Holiday honoring Dr. King and his legacy. To this day, McMLK is the only organization in Mendocino County that provides this service. Through out the years McMLK's mission has broaden to include projects that focus on what Dr. King would say today. REGARDING MOVING BEYOND TOLERANCE: The Mendocino County Martin Luther King, Jr. Organization (MeMLK), believe that the use of "Tolerance" creates a barrier in eliminating prejudice and sterotype thinking. The word "Tolerance" implies that there is a limited formula to human kindness and a fix formula to life. McMLK knows that an individuals natural constitution (Spirit) is one of good will, vast worthiness and unlimited kindness. Therefore, McMLK believe that the only effective way to genuinely appreciate, respect and understand diversity is to move "Beyond Tolerance" REGARDING BOARD MEMBERS: Present McMLK board members are:LaCretia Peoples-Managing Director; Richard Shoemaker-Scholarship Chairperson & Mendocino County Board of Supervisor, Lynda McClure-Cifizenship Chairperson and Bruce Haldane.

AGENDA SUMMARY ITEM NO. 9h DATE: November 6, 2002 REPORT SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF REVISIONS TO CIVIC CENTER ADDITION Since the City Council's last review of the Civic Center addition, the need for certain revisions to the exterior design has arisen. In order to provide outside storage of the bicycles, which are stored in the old armory building on Dora Street, an overhead canopy is needed at the rear (south face) of the building over the evidence area. An elevation of the canopy is provided in Attachment #1. Staff originally included a 25 foot by 20 foot canopy as an alternate in the original Notice to Bidders. Rainbow Construction, as the successful bidder, included a bid of $11,200. Based on input from the Police Department regarding the increasing need for bicycle storage, staff is proposing a canopy which measures 25 by 40 foot. Although Rainbow has not prepared an exact cost estimate for the larger canopy, staff estimates the total cost to be approximately $20,000. The second revision is based upon input provided by the Planning Commission during its review of the Site Development Permit. The original building elevations reflected an enclosed causeway connecting the addition to the rear (west) of the existing building. Due to floor elevation differences between the two buildings, which was necessary based on the site engineering, the causeway had to be eliminated. The Planning Commission recommended the area between the buildings be more open and that a security fence/wall be added connecting the northeast corner of the addition to the north west corner of the existing building. In response, staff is proposing a tiered, covered walkway of wood construction, following the sidewalk grades between the buildings and duplicating the design of the covered walks around the existing building. The security fence is proposed to duplicate the design of the fence enclosing the recently constructed communications tower at the rear of the building. The fence is proposed to be seven feet tall, solid wall construction with a top rail duplicating the roof of the covered walk. A second fence is proposed between the south corners to secure the entrance from the rear employee parking area. Architectural renderings of the fence and walkway are provided in Attachment #2. Staff estimates the cost of the walkway and fences to be approximately $30,000. The increased costs related to these revisions will be included for Council's approval in the mid-year budget adjustment. Should the Council approve, the Planning Commission will review both revisions at the November 13 meeting. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve revisions to Civic Center Addition. ALTERNATIVE COUNCIL POLICY OPTIONS: 1. Determine revisions as proposed require further consideration and after discussion approve with changes. 2. Determine approval of revisions is inappropriate and do not move to approve. Citizen Advised: N/A Requested by: City Manager , ~. Prepared by: Larry W.
