STREET CLOSURE RECOMMENDATION — BLOCK PARTY — ALBERT FROM
WESTERN TO HURON
Mr. Gilot informed the Board that Ms. Brandi Smith has submitted a request for a block party on
September 25, 2010. The Clerk noted the application came in on September 22, 2010, the day
before the Board Meeting. She stated this is the second time this party has submitted her
application at the last minute. The Clerk was able to get recommendations from the Street
Department and Community and Economic Development, both in favor. She noted however, the
Police Department has not responded. Mr. Littrell stated the Fire Department uses the alley
connecting to Albert as a thoroughfare and it should not be blocked. Mr. Gilot requested the
Clerk include in her letter to the applicant that in the future she must give notice sooner, and
suggest she look into a park next year as the Board will no longer approve street closures for
private parties. Mr. Gilot made a motion that the Board approve the event, subject to those
conditions plus the event must end at 8:00 p.m., not 10:00 p.m. as requested; it is subject to
approval by the Police Department; and they can only close Albert Street up to the alley
entrance. Mr. Littrell seconded the motion, which carried.
The Board discussed the following agenda items:
PUBLIC AGENDA SESSION SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 290
- Agreement — South Bend Weed and Seed Alliance, Inc.
Ms. Pam Meyer, Community and Economic Development, stated the City is providing
administrative and fiscal support, using staff time as a match so there is no cost to this
agreement.
- Bid Award — Erskine Detention Pond Reconstruction
Mr. Bill Schalliol, Community and Economic Development, stated the award of this bid
would be going to the second lowest bidder due to the lowest bidder being found non-
responsive. He noted they did not include the required Non - Collusion, Non -
Discrimination form with their bid. Mr. Gilot questioned whether Legal had reviewed
this. Mr. Schalliol stated they had prepared a Memo supporting the award to the second
lowest bidder. Mr. Gilot questioned what the scope of the project had been changed to.
Mr. Schalliol noted the pond will be re -built instead of moved, improving the capacity
and lessening the impact on the CSO, and Erskine Golf Course overflow. Mr. Gilot
questioned the safety of the project with the location of a pipeline in the same vicinity.
Mr. Littrell noted the pipeline was lowered years ago making it well under the pond, and
not a safety issue.
- Quotation Award — Cleaning and Rehabilitation of Wells Nos. 2 and 5
Mr. Dave Tungate, Water Works, stated there was some confusion in the quotes that
came in for this project. Some of the bidders bid on two wells, and one bid on one well.
After clarification, Water Works is requesting to award to the lowest quoter, Peerless
Midwest. Mr. Gilot questioned whether Legal had reviewed and given their opinion on
these quotes. Mr. Tungate stated they had reviewed it and were okay with the award. Mr.
Gilot asked if it wouldn't be better to reject all quotes, and re -quote the project. He noted
there is no hurry on the project. Mr. Gilot stated if Water Works wanted to proceed with
the award, they would need to get a Memorandum from Legal.
- Safety Reports — Department of Public Works
Mr. Dave Tungate, Water Works, and Mr. Jeff Hudak, Central Services, presented their
respective Safety Reports for the month of August, 2010. . Both had minor accidents to
report that incurred no loss of time or money.
- Monthly Reports — Department of Public Works
Mr. Dave Tungate, Water Works, and Mr. Jeff Hudak, Central Services, presented their
respective Monthly Reports for the month of August, 2010. Mr. Hudak informed the
Board that the IRS had contacted Central Services and informed them if they sell fuel to
other not - for - profit organizations associated with the City, but not part of the City, they
would be subject to all fuel taxes. He noted that would increase the cost to the City
approximately .18 per gallon of fuel. Mr. Gilot stated Legal should draft a letter to the
few organizations the City currently supplies with fuel to notify them we regret but we
can no longer do this. He noted the City can't afford the extra expense.
- Professional Services Agreement — Christopher Burke Engineering, Ltd.
Mr. Inks questioned which part of the Rule 13 this agreement covers. Mr. John Engstrom,
Engineering, stated this agreement will update the language in Part C of the report. Mr.
Gilot noted there has been a full time MS4 position created within the City, so in the
future we should not contract this out, but work in- house.
- Change Order — Embedded Sensor CSO Monitoring Project, Phase II
Mr. Patrick Henthorn, Engineering, stated this Change Order encompasses four items
including the addition of rebar to CSO 28; addition of two line stops for water valves and
the discovery of a buried manhole at CSO 25; and filling of a void down vacated Sorin
Street at CSO 27 and 28.
- Professional Services Agreement — Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc.
Mr. Shawn Hipsher, Environmental Services, noted this agreement is for GIS software
training and installation. He added this is an Arc GIS map software go between that is
web related. Mr. Patrick Henthorn, Engineering, noted they are looking at different
licensing so an unlimited number of people can view the site, instead of the current
limited licensing. Mr. Hipsher added this software will provide real -time viewing. Mr.
Gilot noted this is a fair amount of money for sixty hours of consulting; GIS and
Information Technologies should be ready to make the adjustment so we don't have to
extend the time of the agreement.
- Special Purchase Sole- Source Preventative Maintenance Agreement — Dell Corporation
Mr. Phil Custard, Purchasing, noted one of these agreements for the Police Department
was submitted when there was equipment failure and the Police Department was told
their agreement had expired. They need to get the agreement renewed to get the failed
hard drive in the disk array fixed. Mr. Gilot suggested for this price, they should look at
PUBLIC AGENDA SESSION SEPTEMBER 23, 2010 291
new equipment. Mr. Custard stated they will be upgrading in two years. Mr. Gilot
questioned whether they could do' a mirrored storage on a second server to prevent these
kinds of issues.
- Maintenance Service Agreement — Stephen Campbell & Associates, Inc.
Mr. Gilot stated for the amount of this maintenance agreement, the Police Department
should pay into a self -fund and buy new equipment every two years.
- Ratify Lease of Seventy -Five, More or Less, Golf Carts — Blackthorn Golf Course
Mr. Inks noted the Board already signed the lease for these carts at the previous meeting.
Attorney Larry Meteiver stated this was the ratification of the award to complete the
paper trail.

requested notice of the meeting agenda. No other business came before the Board. The meeting
