voice vote - 5.
(04 -404) Public Hearing to consider an Appeal of the Planning
Board's denial of Variances, VO4 -0006, 0007, 0008 and 0010, and
denial of Major Design Review, DR04 -0026, for all development
projects at 3017 Marina Drive; and adoption of related resolution.
The site is located within an R -1, Single- Family Residential Zoning
District. The development project includes expansion of the

Approval is being sought for the following: 1) Variance to AMC
Subsection 30- 4.1(d)(3) (Maximum Main Building Coverage exceeding
480); 2) Variance to AMC Subsection 30- 4.1(d)(7) and Section 30 -2
(Rear Yard) because the building extends across the rear property
line into the estuary; 3) Variance to AMC Subsection 30- 5.7(a)
(Roof Eaves) and 30- 5.7(d) (Bay Windows) because the roof eaves
above the bay windows encroach to within 3 feet from the side
property line and bay windows are not permitted to encroach into
side yards; 4) Variance to AMC Subsection 30- 5.7(c)(1) (Rear Yard),
Subsection 30 -2 (Definitions) (Yard -Rear) and Subsection 30-
4.1(d)(7) (Rear Yard) because decks over 36- inches in height extend
into the required side and rear yard setbacks; 5) Variance to AMC
Subsection 30- 5.14(c) (Barrier Heights) because the windscreens
around the patios exceed the maximum permitted 8 -foot height. The
Planning Board found that the Variance for the bay window
encroachment be withdrawn because encroachment is in compliance,
subject to Design Review approval. Applicant /Appellant: Rita
Mohlen. [Continued to August 17, 2004.1
(04 -405) New Main Library Project update.
The Project Manager submitted a handout and gave a brief update on
the Library Project; stated the one bid received was $4.63 million
over budget; all bidders who attended the pre -bid meeting were
interviewed; contractors were either too busy or could not meet the
pre - qualification requirements; the architect was responsible for
the construction estimate; the Office of Library Construction (OLC)
advised him that bids throughout the State are significantly over
budget.
Mayor Johnson inquired what the construction estimate was, to which
the Project Manager responded $14.6; $1 million was added for the
parking structure; the bidder, SJ Amoroso, developed a $3.5 million
value engineering cost savings list.
Vice Mayor Daysog inquired what value engineering meant, to which
the Project Manager responded it is a review process to determine
where costs could be cut.
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 4
August 3, 2004
Mayor Johnson inquired whether SJ Amoroso found $3.5 million in
cost reductions, to which the Project Manager responded in the
affirmative; stated that SJ Amoroso is willing to negotiate through
an open book process detailing costs and markups; options are: 1)
accept the $20 million bid, 2) redesign and rebid the project, or
3) negotiate a better price with SJ Amoroso.
Mayor Johnson inquired whether working with the architect and SJ
Amoroso was an option.
The Project Manager responded a collaborative effort between the
contractor, architect, and City staff is feasible; there is a time
constraint of 60 days [from the July 21 bid date] to award the
contract.
Councilmember Kerr inquired whether the OLC would accept the
parking area as a flat parking lot and not demand the extra spaces
that would have been provided by the Hom building, to which the
Project Manager responded in the affirmative.
Councilmember Kerr inquired whether the flat parking lot could
endanger the project, to which the Project Manager responded in the
negative.
Vice Mayor Daysog stated the Library should be built as designed
and as the community has desired; inquired what is being given up
in the $3.5 million savings and who has reviewed the $20.3 million
overall cost.
The Project Manager responded that the $20.3 million cost appears
to be fair; rebidding could result in a higher bid due to
inflation.
Mayor Johnson inquired what types of changes could be made with the
$3.5 million savings, to which the Project Manager responded
anything from foundation to roof changes; SJ Amoroso has proposed
redesign of the foundation and access flooring.
Vice Mayor Daysog stated that SJ Amoroso's options should be
reviewed with a different eye.
The Project Manager stated that the option assessment would be a
collaborative effort between the architect, construction manager
and City staff.
Vice Mayor Daysog inquired whether an independent eye reviewed the
$14.6 estimate to ensure that the figure was a correct and whether
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 5
August 3, 2004
the discussion tonight would be occurring if the estimate was $19
million, to which the Project Manager responded there would have
been a redesign effort prior to bidding if the estimate had been
$19 million.
Councilmember Matarrese inquired whether Ophiem -Lewis missed the
mark by $4.6 million, to which the Project Manager responded in the
affirmative.
Councilmember Matarrese inquired whether Ophiem -Lewis was paid, to
which the Project Manager responded in the affirmative.
Councilmember Matarrese stated that he was hesitant to involve
someone who might not knowing what they are doing; that he would
rather have known that $20 million was the ballpark figure rather
than finding out now.
Councilmember Gilmore inquired whether value engineering changes
would need the State Architect approval, to which the Project
Manager responded in the affirmative.
Councilmember Gilmore inquired whether time would be lost by
submitting the flat parking lot and valued engineering changes, to
which the Project Manager responded the changes are separate items;
the flat parking lot could be instituted in conjunction with a
budget amendment.
Mayor Johnson inquired whether the Project Manager was requesting
direction tonight, to which the Project Manager responded that he
was requesting Council consensus.
Mayor Johnson inquired what the best option was, to which the
Project Manager stated that he could provide Council with a report
outlining options and recommendations; cautioned there is a 60 -day
period; SJ Amoroso indicated it would only give a 10 -day extension
after the 60 -day period.
The Acting City Manager stated the architect sent a letter
questioning whether receipt of one bid constituted a competitive
bid.
Mayor Johnson stated that the architect helped the City draft the
parameters and qualifications, which could be the reason why more
bids were not received.
The Acting City Manager stated the City needs the architect to work
with SJ Amoroso and City staff.
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 6
August 3, 2004
Councilmember Matarrese noted that the architect works for the
City; stated Council should have received the report prior to the
meeting; requested an updated budget; stated a decision should not
be made tonight; if necessary, a special meeting should be called;
the project will be more expensive than estimated in March.
The Project Manager noted staff provided the report to Council
tonight to provide timely information.
Mayor Johnson stated that staff should provide Council with the
report prior to the meeting and provide an update at the meeting,
if necessary.
Councilmember Gilmore stated that the City is in a bind; going
through the negotiated contract route poses a problem with the
architect and the one bid issue; the redesign and rebid process
takes time; rebid would result in construction being done during
the rainy season.
Councilmember Matarrese requested Council be provided a report
outlining the advantages and disadvantages of each option
immediately.
The Acting City Manager stated that staff would provide Council
with a report by the end of the week.
Ty Frye, Turnkey Forces, stated that the pre - qualification was
irregular; qualifications were due after bid submittal; contractors
were reluctant to invest time and effort to bid the project without
being pre - qualified; any proposals could be valued engineered;
value engineering can be done after the bid is awarded; deductions
can be made throughout the project; deferred approvals can be done
on different parts of the project; the project could be rebid
within two weeks if the pre - qualifications were reworded in the
standard way.
Mayor Johnson inquired whether there would be a need to go out to
bid again, to which Mr. Frye responded that the project could go
out to bid within one or two weeks.
Councilmember Matarrese requested an explanation of standard versus
non - standard qualifications.
Mr. Frye stated that an addendum to a project is due 72 hours
before bid day.
The Project Manager stated that the post - qualification process was
Legal Counsel's recommendation.
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 7
August 3, 2004
In response to Councilmember Matarrese's inquiry about standard
versus non - standard qualifications, the Project Manager stated the
pre - qualification process is where the contractors submit
qualifications prior to the bid; the pool is limited to contractors
judged as qualified; a post - qualification process allows anyone to
bid on the project; qualifications were clearly delineated; the
assumption was made that bidders would read the qualification
process; the qualification section of the bid document can be
revised and sent back out.
Vice Mayor Daysog requested another set of eyes be included in the
review.
Councilmember Gilmore inquired whether the Project Manager was
opposed to rebidding the project, to which the Project Manager
responded that there is a significant time advantage in not
rebidding; competitors have said that SJ Amoroso is a fine
organization.
The consensus of the Council was to have staff provide a report
detailing the pros and cons of each option by the end of the week.
(04 -406) Recommendation to address financial support to Alameda
Unified School District in the Fiscal Year 2004 -05 budget.
Councilmember Kerr stated that she was concerned the report only
addressed $450,000 in support items and not the entire $1.1
million.
Councilmember Matarrese stated that he would not want to stop
funding any items listed; that he supports funding police at
Alameda Unified School District events; sporting events take place
without incident; the City should not be liable for someone getting
hurt on an improperly maintained softball or hardball field.
Councilmember Gilmore stated that Council wanted to address the
entire $1.1 million in funding, not only General Fund items; other
items come from non - General Fund categories; many departments made
loo cuts which could potentially impact services.
Mayor Johnson concurred with Councilmember Gilmore; stated Council
was to be provided with an entire list to review.
Mayor Johnson moved approval of placing review of entire $1.1
million in support of Alameda Unified School District on September
7, 2004 agenda.
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 8
August 3, 2004
Councilmember Kerr seconded the motion, which carried by unanimous
voice vote - 5.
(04 -407) Recommendation to authorize fuel surcharge on the
Alameda /Oakland Ferry Service and the Alameda Harbor Bay Ferry
Service.
Mayor Johnson inquired whether there was any feedback from ferry
riders.
The Ferry Services Manager responded in the affirmative; stated
that he received 22 emails from Harbor Bay and Alameda /Oakland
ferry riders; staff did ride - alongs for three days on the
Alameda /Oakland Ferry Service.
Councilmember Kerr inquired what the response were, to which the
Ferry Services Manager responded that during the ride - alongs, two
riders did not object to the fare increase but thought there would
be a decrease in ridership; 18 riders understood the reason for the
increase; all emails were positive.
Mayor Johnson stated that said information should have been
included in the report.
Councilmember Kerr stated including the information would have
allowed the public to review it online.
The Public Works Director noted that there was a timing issue;
reports were due two days after the last Council meeting; feedback
was not received until after reports were due.
Mayor Johnson inquired to whom the reports were due, to which the
Public Works Director responded the City Manager's office.
Mayor Johnson stated that Council needs to receive updates.
Councilmember Kerr inquired why there was a 25 -cent, one -way fare
increase for seniors but not for student - teacher chaperone fares,
to which the Ferry Services Manager responded that the school
program has been offered for years; every year the District has
less money to enjoy the benefit of the program.
Councilmember Kerr stated that the City and ferry system have less
money too; that she is tired of hearing that the School District is
the only one short of money; requesting the School District to bear
the same increase as seniors is not too much to ask.
Councilmember Kerr moved approval of the staff recommendation with
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 9
August 3, 2004
revising the language to have the rate increase apply to the
student /teacher rates.
Councilmember Matarrese seconded the motion, which carried by
unanimous voice vote - 5.
(04 -408) Appeal of the Transportation Technical Team's Decision
regarding abatement of cited vehicles and trailers at 1617 Central
Avenue.
The Public Works Director stated that the appellant was noticed;
the Police Department has indicated that only one of the vehicles
is registered.
Councilmember Kerr inquired whether there was still problem, to
which the Public Works Director responded in the affirmative.
Councilmember Matarrese moved approval of denying the appeal.
Councilmember Kerr seconded the motion, which carried by unanimous
voice vote - 4. [Absent: Vice Mayor Daysog - 1. Note: Vice Mayor
Daysog left the dais at 1:02 a.m. and returned at 1:05 p.m.]
ORAL COMMUNICATIONS, NON- AGENDA
None.
COUNCIL COMMUNICATIONS
(04 -409) Discussion of the Work /Live Ordinance.
Pat Bail, Alameda, urged consideration of Vice Mayor Daysog's
suggestion to eliminate the Ordinance; stated an additional
ordinance to accommodate work /live in historic buildings should be
presented to the community; concurred with Councilmember Kerr
regarding the agenda change process.
Mayor Johnson inquired what the Council's options are on the
matter, to which the City Attorney responded that Council could
provide direction, information, vote to bring the matter back for
discussion, or provide comments on Vice Mayor Daysog's email; that
Council could not introduce an ordinance tonight.
Mayor Johnson stated that she has no problem with bringing the
matter back to Council for discussion; if Council had handled the
ordinance differently in 1997, the recent work /live project would
not have been as controversial; the ordinance passed with a 3 -2
vote; Measure A was a voter initiated grassroots effort; there have
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 10
August 3, 2004
been arguments that work /live is not living; stated that she
concurs with Vice Mayor Daysog concerning the need to review the
northern waterfront; past Council's intention was to preserve
historic buildings; preservation methods are not limited to
work /live; Council should identify buildings to preserve; Council
should review the economically feasible options; a similar ballot
measure in 1991 did not pass; the community may feel differently
now.
Councilmember Matarrese inquired whether that was the consensus of
the Council.
Councilmember Kerr stated that she would support having the matter
brought back to Council; that Council should add historical context
language.
Mayor Johnson stated that economic feasibility for businesses
should be addressed.
Councilmember Kerr stated that Council action should address 1)
eliminating the ordinance, 2) sending the ordinance to the voters,
3) addressing economic development of the buildings, and 4)
preserving the historical buildings along the northern waterfront.
Councilmember Matarrese stated that the later two are Council's
responsibility; Council should be leaders to promote and propose
economic development and preserve historic buildings; the question
is whether Council wants the ordinance or not; presenting the
ordinance to voters is not a problem; times change and issues need
to be revisited; he supports bringing the matter back to Council.
Councilmember Gilmore stated she would like to have a count of how
many buildings fall under the existing work /live ordinance and how
many are on the historical building study list or the historical
monument list.
In response to Councilmember Gilmore's comments, the Planning
Supervisor stated that she has a map outlining the buildings; there
are buildings that are clearly residential even though they are in
commercial, industrial districts; desire to change the buildings to
an industrial use is unlikely because of costs; buildings that are
on the historic building study list and the one City monument [Del
Monte Building] are noted on the map.
The Acting City Manager stated that discussion of the Work /Live
Ordinance could be placed on a future agenda; staff would prepare a
report identifying Council's questions; Council's questions
regarding economic and redevelopment go beyond work /live; buildings
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 1 1
August 3, 2004
within the redevelopment area could be given priority incentives;
the private sector could provide suggestions.
Mayor Johnson stated that possible business use and associated
costs should be reviewed.
Vice Mayor Daysog stated that he was happy to see initiation of
consistency between ordinances and the Charter.
Councilmember Kerr stated that Council needs to consider when an
ordinance is approved by a Council 3 -2 vote and not by the voters;
there may be enterprising people who persuade the Council into
moving the boundary considerably west.
The Acting City Manager stated that the matter would be brought
back to Council in September.
Councilmember Kerr stated the matter should be brought back as a
very broad agenda item.
(04 -410) Consideration of placing the telephone fee for public
safety on the November 2004 ballot.
Vice Mayor Daysog stated that citizens want to have a say on the
fee; Friday is the deadline for placing matters on the November
ballot; he would like to have the fee placed on the ballot.
The Acting City Manager stated that the fee has not been
determined; the adopted budget assumes $1.4 million in revenue from
the fee over the next year.
Vice Mayor Daysog inquired whether the fee was $2.00, to which the
Finance Director responded that the exact number of landlines have
been received; a $2 fee will not generate $1.4 million; the fee
needs to be approximately $2.75.
Mayor Johnson inquired whether the number of cell phones was
determined, to which the Finance Director responded in the
negative.
Mayor Johnson stated that she would prefer to make an educated
estimate on the number of fell phones rather than having a fee that
is higher than necessary.
The Acting City Manager stated that estimating the number of cell
phones would be an eleventh hour guess; the fees are dedicated to
the 911 center.
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 12
August 3, 2004
Councilmember Kerr inquired into the number of landlines, to which
the Finance Director responded 34,964.
Councilmember Kerr stated that she has a problem with charging for
the first line, which is a lifeline.
Mayor Johnson stated there should be a budget update prior to
implementing the fee; placing the fee on the ballot puts the City
in a difficult situation.
Councilmember Gilmore stated that there is an adopted budget which
assumes $1.4 million in revenue; citizens may decide they do not
value emergency services and vote against it; positions which were
to be covered by the $1.4 million would need to remain unfounded if
the matter were placed on the ballot.
The Finance Director stated that two dispatch positions would be
the only new item that could be placed on hold.
Councilmember Gilmore inquired whether the police and firefighter
positions would be paid by the fee, to which the Finance Director
responded that the positions would not be paid with the $1.4
million.
Councilmember Matarrese stated that he would be reluctant to freeze
the dispatch positions; inquired whether a scenario provides for an
advisory vote.
The City Attorney responded if Council chooses to place the fee on
the ballot, the recommended approach would be to have two measures;
the problem is that the specific fee amount is unknown.
Councilmember Gilmore stated there is a consensus to place the fee
on the ballot; however, the information cannot be presented in time
to place the fee on the ballot.
Mayor Johnson stated that Council does not have accurate
information; voters cannot be asked to vote on a guess.
Councilmember Kerr inquired what the $1.4 million would cover, to
which the Finance Director responded 500 of the total dispatch
center costs.
Councilmember Matarrese stated that the funds are already in the
budget; inquired whether revenue from the fee would free up $1.4
million to be used elsewhere, to which the Finance Director
responded in the affirmative.
Regular Meeting
Alameda City Council 13
August 3, 2004
Vice Mayor Daysog stated that residents should vote on the fee.
Mayor Johnson stated that she concurred with Vice Mayor Daysog;
however, Council should not place something on the ballot without
an accurate fee.
Vice Mayor Daysog stated a rate was established to project $1.4
million in revenue when the budget was adopted.
Mayor Johnson stated that the City could not determine the rate
because of lack of information on cell phone lines.
Councilmember Matarrese stated that two months ago, the City did
know the number.
Mayor Johnson stated that the number was an estimate.
Councilmember Gilmore stated the budget assumes $1.4 million in
revenue from the fee; unless the Council enacts the ordinance, the
City would lose $1.4 million in revenues; the budget needs to be
brought back to Council; how the State budget impacts the City
needs to be reviewed.
Vice Mayor Daysog stated that it is odd to have adopted the budget
without knowing the rate to be charged.
Mayor Johnson stated that the City was dependant on receiving
information from phone companies.
The Finance Director requested Council to clarify the request for
bringing the budget back.
Councilmember Kerr responded detailed information on the loo cuts
should be provided.
The Finance Director stated that there is an August 17 agenda item
which would accomplish the request; she will confer with the
Assistant City Manager.
Councilmember Gilmore requested information on how the adopted
State budget affects the City's budget.
Councilmember Matarrese stated that there may be a need for a
special meeting; that he wants to receive information prior to the
meeting.
Mayor Johnson suggested that the meeting be scheduled for early
September.
