Paul Sensibaugh, Public Works Director, gave staff report ,and rec ommendation. 0 COUNCIL MINUTES - 7/8/ PAGE 3 John Kennaly, the applicant's engineer, stated that they have re- designed the basin according to Mr. Sensibaugh's criteria and feel that any minor details could be worked out with him. Councilman Handshy asked the applicant if the conditions that the Council is being asked to approve are agreeable to him. He res- ponded that he is willing to assume any liability over and above - what the City has, but is unclear as to what exactly theirs is. Mr. Sensibaugh clarified that the applicant is being asked to as- sume liability for conditions resultant from his project , not from conditions which may already exist. The agreement is intended as a precautionary measure; the liability question probably isn't as extreme as the maintenance question implied. MOTION: By Councilwoman Mackey to authorize Mayor to enter into mainte- nance and liability agreement, seconded by Councilman Handshy.

Request for Proposal for Sanitary Sewer and Wastewater Plant Study for the Atascadero County Sanitation District Paul Sensibaugh gave staff report, providing a handout, for refer- ence purposes , to Council which indicates the scope of services of the Wastewater Treatment Plant. Councilwoman Mackey inquired where will engineering consultants be sought from (County? City?) . Mr. Sensibaugh responded that, orig- inally, he felt that requests for proposals be sent to seven qualified engineering consulting firms, from which three firms would be select- ed to submit proposals. He stated that, many times , the National Society for Professional Engineers requires the selection of 3-4 consultants, research of their backgrounds associated with the type of design in question and select one to submit a proposal. In this case, he selected the three firms felt to have the most familiarity with the County and Atascadero area, adding that, if Council desires to include other individuals/firms in this consideration, Mr. Sensi- baugh would certainly include them. He did4:".t, however, want to drag the issue out to the point where the- City was looking at so many=firms that they weren't getting to the task they originally set out for. Mr. Shelton stated that staff feels there is somewhat urgency in this item, in that it has been needed to be done for a long time. He has been waiting for Mr. Sensibaugh to come on board and initiate this study and give it the necessary objectiveness ; this process (of seeking various proposals) would give the staff the ability to rec- ommend a firm which could do the best job for the City at the lowest cost. �Q COUNCIL MINUTES - 7/8/1 PAGE 4 MOTION: By Councilwoman Mackey to give staff the go-ahead to seek engineer- ing proposals, seconded by Councilman Molina.
