Staff Report- Public Works Department
Atascadero SCADA System Project
Engineering Design Services
RECOMMENDATION:
Council authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Freitas Plus Freitas
Engineering and Planning Consultants, Inc., in the amount of $42,500.00 for
Preparation of Technical Specifications and Construction Phase Services for a new
Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition system (SCADA) for the City's wastewater
collection system.
DISCUSSION:
Background: Sanitary sewer services are provided to approximately one-half of the
residences and a majority of the businesses within the City limits. The sewer collection
system consists of more than 60 miles of laterals, mains, and force mains ranging in
size from 4 to 18 inches in diameter and thirteen lift stations that deliver approximately
1.3 MGD to the Wastewater Treatment Plant.
Currently, the only way to monitor the various pumps and electronic equipment at the
City's thirteen lift stations is to physically visit each site. Alarm dialers do alert staff to
potential problems such as power failures and increased wet-well levels, however they
do not provide information such as flows, pressures, temperatures, and effluent levels.
This information can be measured, recorded, controlled with a Supervisory Control and
Data Acquisition system (SCADA).
Analysis: SCADA is a computer-monitored alarm, response, control and data
acquisition system used to monitor and control wastewater treatment processes and
facilities from a central location. The SCADA system will act as the City's primary
detector of lift station malfunctions and directly aids in the prevention of Sanitary Sewer
1
Overflows as required by the Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR) issued by the
State Water Resource Control Board. Installation of a SCADA system is crucial to
improve the efficiency of our management of the wastewater collection system and for
improved data collection.
Staff mailed Requests for Proposals to ten engineering firms qualified in the design of
SCADA Systems on February 4, 2008. The services requested were for the development
of technical specifications for a SCADA System incorporating existing control equipment
and upgrading current software. In addition, the consultant would be responsible for
construction phase consultation to provide clarification as needed and to assure
compliance with the design.
On March 6, 2008 three proposals were received. The proposals were evaluated and
ranked by a Review Panel. Freitas Plus Freitas Engineering and Planning Consultants,
Inc., was found to be the most qualified consultant.
Conclusion: Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to
execute a contract with Freitas Plus Freitas Engineering and Planning Consultants, Inc.
in the amount of $42,500.00 for the Preparation of Technical Specifications and
Construction Phase Services for a new SCADA System for the City's wastewater
collection system.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of the agreement for services will result in the expenditure of $42,500 in
budgeted Wastewater Funds.

Atascadero City Council
Staff Report- City Manager's Office
Economic Development Strategy Consultant Selection
RECOMMENDATION:
Council select an economic development consultant to update the City's Economic
Development Strategy and authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with the
selected consultant.
DISCUSSION:
At the June 26, 2007 City Council meeting, the Council received a presentation
reviewing all of the economic development projects currently underway in the City and a
list of our opportunities and challenges. At this meeting the Council directed staff to
draft a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for an economic development consultant to
assist the City in revising the economic development strategy.
n RF for consulting services to
On August 28 2007 the Cit Council approved a Q
9 Y9
develop an economic development strategy and plan. In September, staff released the
RFQ to economic development consultants in the area, consultants that had previously
contacted the City and the document was posted on the website of the California
Association for Local Economic Development (CALED). Proposals were due October
17, 2007 and a total of 11 proposals were received, which is a very good response.
There was diversity within the respondents, including firms from the area, from northern
California and from other states, as well as various-sized firms. The following firms
responded to the RFQ:
Civic Solutions Group, Applied Development Economics, Strategonomic Global
Network, Clue Group, Chabin Concepts, Pacific Group, Civic Economics/TIP
Strategies, Earth Design, Inc., Productive Impact LLC, Development
Management Group and PMC.
In accordance with the City's purchasing policy, a selection committee was established
to read the proposals and select finalists to be interviewed. The committee met in mid-
November to select the finalists to be interviewed. Finalists were selected based on
responsiveness, understanding of the City's needs, past performance, experience,
feasibility of the plan, public process, and community fit. The committee unanimously
agreed that based on these criteria four applicants would be interviewed. These firms
were:
1. Applied Development Economics of Walnut Creek, California
2. Chabin Concepts of Chico, California
3. Civic Economics/TIP Strategies of Austin, Texas
4 PMC of Monterey, California
Each of the top four firms were interviewed by the selection committee on December 6,
2007. The interview provided consultants with an opportunity to discuss their firm's
strengths, show previous work products and explain how they would approach a
strategy for Atascadero. Each of the four top firms were excellent and had their
strengths.
The selection committee unanimously recommended Applied Development Economics
to the City Council. This recommendation was submitted to the City Council on January
22, 2008. Applied Development Economics presented their approach to the City
Council at this meeting and the recommendation was approved by a unanimous vote.
On February 4, 2008, Mayor Brennler requested that the City Council reconsider the
vote of January 22, 2008 to select an economic development consultant. At the Council
meeting of February 12, 2008, the Council reconsidered the action to hire Applied
Development Economics and directed staff to invite the four finalists to a future meeting
of the City Council for public interviews and selection.
All four finalists were invited to make presentations this evening on why their firm would
be best qualified to serve Atascadero. Three of the finalists agreed to make a
presentation and continue along in the process. Chabin Concepts declined to continue
with the process. The original proposals of each of the finalists have been made
available at City Hall for review. Additionally, each of the four finalists was asked to
provide previous examples of their work with economic development strategies.
Examples have been made available at City Hall for public review.
Should the Council decide to move forward with the selection of an economic
development consultant this evening, staff would immediately begin working with them
to provide relevant data and familiarize them with the community. The data will be
analyzed and initial reports will be created that will form a basis of discussion for
community meetings. Following a comprehensive public outreach and involvement
process regarding the community's preferences, a strategy consistent with the
community's economic opportunities and constraints will be drafted. After additional
community input, action steps and a marketing campaign will be developed. The final
plan would be expected to be adopted by the City Council.
i
FISCAL IMPACT:
Depending on the consultant selected and the level of public outreach and input, the
cost of developing the strategy will range from $43,000-$122,000. Related support
costs and costs for the public process are estimated to be $20,000. Funding has been
appropriated in the Redevelopment Agency budget for this purpose.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Take no action
2. Revise Economic Strategy at the staff level

request, staff contacted the International City/County Management Association (ICMA)
based in Washington D.C. ICMA is a national professional organization committed to
good government and is known as a leader in creating and promoting ethical practices.
ICMA was able to assist the City and sent Catherine Standiford, Assistant City Manager
for the City of Santa Ana and a certified ethics trainer to assist.
The first step in the process was for employees to complete an online survey. The
purpose of the survey was to gauge the current perceptions of ethical behavior of
employees, managers and the Council, and to determine the level of understanding of
how to deal with ethical dilemmas. A copy of the survey instrument and the results are
attached (Attachment A).
The survey was developed by both ICMA and the Institute for Local Government (ILG).
It was sent by email to Atascadero employees about three weeks prior to the actual
training. The intent of this survey was to gauge the current level of understanding by
employees of how to deal with ethical dilemmas, and to identify opportunities for
clarifying expectations, policies, procedures or other factors that contribute to a culture
of ethics in local government organizations.
There were 76 respondents to the survey, more than 50% of the total number of
employees. In an effort to assure employees that their responses would be confidential,
the survey did not ask them to disclose information about their specific position, the
level of the organization they represent, or the department in which they work.
Based on statements from Ms. Standiford survey findings s included:
• "Employees feel they are usually surrounded by co-workers who know and care
about the difference between ethical and unethical behaviors, and a high
percentage report they work with one or more trusted confidantes with whom
they feel comfortable discussing work-related ethical issues."
• "A strong majority of employees know they are expected to follow the spirit and
letter of the law, to follow stated policies, as opposed to the desires of individual
elected or appointed officials, and to use ethical behavior in getting results. A
strong majority report that this expectation is set by the City's executives."
• "There is a strong perception that executives treat the public with civility and
respect and treat all members of the public equally, without regard for their
personal or political "connections"."
• "Employees perceive that executives do not use public resources for private
purposes."
On October 11, 2007, three ethics workshops of approximately two hours each were
conducted throughout the day. The results of the survey were discussed with the
employees in attendance. The workshops were well attended by employees and all
departments were represented. The workshops were broken into two categories:
a. Workshops for the City's employees. These workshops were designed
to provide supervisors and employees with the skills and practical
strategies needed to identify and resolve ethical issues and strengthen the
ethical culture in work teams. The workshops provided participants with
the opportunity to resolve real world ethics issues in an interactive setting
such as small group discussions. Employees were given the opportunity to
discuss the ethical culture of the organization and share ideas on how
employees could reinforce ethical behavior on a daily basis.
b. A workshop for the City's management team. This workshop was
designed to provide the City's managers with a framework for building on
the ethical culture within the City of Atascadero. Ms. Standiford facilitated
a process of identifying the key elements that the City's executive
managers need to consider to be the guiding ethical values for the
organization. She also assisted the executive managers in developing an
action plan for fostering an ethical culture based on comments provided by
the employees and on best practices.
As a result of the training, staff gained valuable knowledge and insight into how to
conduct themselves ethically when working for the citizens of Atascadero and reinforced
their ethical beliefs. Additionally, employees reviewed the three "Core Principles of
Public Service": no personal financial gain, no personal advantages or perks and
transparency and fairness in government. The employees left the training with tools and
strategies for creating a more ethical culture.
Immediately following the training the sessions, the City began working with employees
to enact policies, communication methods, and additional training to further strengthen
the ethical culture. Specifically, direct results from the training include:
• A newly enacted administrative policy, "Acceptance of Gifts or Gratuities by
Employees". This policy is attached (Attachment B).
• The City Council has emphasized ethics as an important issue and has
participated in the required ethics training included in AB1234.
• Better communication and transparency within and among the departments. This
is being accomplished by sharing information more quickly with employees and
making sure managers and employees are having more frequent conversations
about what is happening in the organization and how the City is doing business.
News releases are also circulated to employees citywide.
• Reviews of policies, procedures and regulations in departments to ensure
employees are familiar with them.
• Ethics and situations where ethical principles come into play are discussed at
department staff meetings.
• The Police Department offered a special training session on Saturday, March 15,
2008 focused on Leadership and Ethics.
• The Executive Team has been trained in AB 1234 ethics law and is committed to
maintaining this training on a regular basis.
• The City Manager has conducted a series of roundtables with employees to
discuss city operations, policies, and what is happening around the City and City
Hall.
• The City's Customer Service Committee will be hosting a training course in July,
"Creating a Respectful Work Environment". This training will be specifically
tailored to Atascadero's employees, and will have a section of ethics and ethical
scenarios. Respectful environments encourage ethical culture.
On October 18, 2007, Catherine Standiford sent a letter to the City Manager in which
she followed up on the process of the survey, the training and the results. Ms.
Standiford stated, "You have a wonderful group of dedicated, caring employees, who
demonstrated high interest and commitment to this topic through their active
participation in the training". She said that "there is already a good level of awareness
among employees of the importance of ethics and ethical behavior, as well as
opportunity for further improvement. The training provided to the City of Atascadero
employees was an excellent starting point for further enhancing the positive culture that
already exists in your organization".
Employees are encouraged to continue to share ideas on how the City's ethical culture
can continue to be strengthened. Staff from the City Manager's Office have been
assigned to this process and will continue to build on the ethical culture in the
organization. The process has proved to be very beneficial.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost of the survey was $5,000.00. There are no additional expenses anticipated at
this time.

Atascadero City Council
Staff Report - City Manager's Office
Planning Commission Requests
RECOMMENDATION:
Council give staff direction on interpretation of abstention vote, drive-through policy
development, and tree mitigation fee review.
DISCUSSION:
The Planning Commission has submitted three separate requests for the City Council.
The requests are as follows:
1. City Council amend Title 2, Chapter 1, Section 15 of the Atascadero Municipal
Code to qualify an abstention as a neutral vote.
Currently an abstention, unless it is because of a conflict of interest, is considered an
affirmative vote.
The City Attorney reviewed this section of the Atascadero Municipal Code and
determined that it is not consistent with traditional practice and could be susceptible to
legal challenge due to the lack of a reasonable basis supporting the rule. As the staff
research is already complete, this item would be easy to place on an upcoming agenda.
2. City Council give the Planning Commission a policy on drive-throughs before
any more drive-throughs are submitted for consideration by the Planning
Commission. The Commission encourages the City Council to conduct public
hearings in conjunction with their development of a policy.
The City Council has already directed staff to place this on a future agenda.
Currently, the City's General Plan policy LOC 3.1.11, concerning EI Camino Real,
states:
ITEM NUMBER: B-3
DATE: 4/08/08
Transform the existing El Camino Real "strip" into a distinctive, attractive and
efficient commercial, office and industrial park area which can provide for the
long-term economic viability of the community.
Encourage retail businesses at efficient and attractive nodes along El Camino
Real and Morro Road with mixed office and residential uses between those
nodes.
Programs. (11) Amend and maintain the zoning ordinance to require Conditional
use Permit approvals of bars, dance halls, night clubs, drive through restaurants,
and service stations (all gasoline sales uses).
The issue of drive-throughs relates to traffic, air quality, public health, disabled access
and community character. Staff would need a significant amount of time to analyze all
of these issues. Currently, staff is working on the Wal-Mart and Eagle Ranch General
Plan amendments. Staff believes that August would be the earliest they would be able
to focus on this issue.
3. City Council review tree mitigation fees.
The current tree mitigation fees were adopted by Resolution No. 1998-034 on August
25, 1998.
The City's development fees have been reviewed and updated several times by
financial consulting firm Revenue & Costs Specialists (RCS). A public agency is
required to conduct a valid development impact fee calculation and nexus report before
adjusting development fees. If the Council directs staff to review these fees, the City
would be required to hire a consulting firm to conduct a fee study.
Staff is requesting direction from the City Council if any/all of these requests are to be
placed on a future agenda.
FISCAL IMPACT: Will depend on Council's direction.
