HomeMy WebLinkAbout08/27/13 Board of Public Works MinutesAGENDA REVIEW SESSION AUGUST 22, 2013 251
April of 2006, Mr. Bognar stated the Project Completion Affidavit was approved. The City
removed all the lights but didn't defer to what was happening with the lights. The lighting was
rotated from one corner to another, but never completed. Mr. Bognar state his view is that
nobody looked at this lighting after the project was complete. He added lighting is needed at this
intersection. Mr. Bognar stated there are more City vehicles that go down this route, including
school buses, emergency vehicles, and trash trucks, and something needs to be done. Mr. Bognar
stated that during all these years of discussions, reasons for not doing it have varied from funds,
to lack of power source, to need. He added there are very close quarters at this intersection. Mr.
Relos stated as a nearby resident, his concern is mostly with the southeast corner sidewalk. Mr.
Bognar stated they moved the northeast corner lighting and never replaced it. It's a major
intersection with museums and neighborhood centers. He stated Mr. John Voorde, City Clerk,
recommended he come to the Board to see if it could be resolved without going to the Common
Council. Mr. Bognar added that both neighbors have no issues with cobra lighting being
installed, and clearly there is a power source. He asked if the Board can resolve this issue. Mr.
Relos questioned if he could be specific; is he asking about the entire intersection? Mr. Bognar
stated the northwest and southeast corners need lighting at the intersection. Mr. Paul South,
Director of Streets, stated there is a cobra light at that location, but it's not lit because a
gentleman down the street does not like the light coming in his window. He noted there are street
lights at the intersection mounted on traffic lights. He added they can turn on the northeast light
but he is not sure the power source is strong enough to power the needed amps. Mr. Bognar
stated they would have to test the power. The Board members requested the Street Department
light the light. Mr. Gilot stated there is a cobra light there, it should be turned on. Mr. Bognar
added that when the contract was signed off, everyone focused on the antique lights and nobody
checked the cobra lights. He noted all of the overhead lights were removed by AEP, and the
neighbors were told new poles were put up for cobra lights. Ms. Greene stated at the very least
we need to turn on the light that is there. Mr. Neal agreed but noted Mr. Bognar has also
identified two other locations. Mr. Bognar requested somebody get back to him and provided his
phone number.
The Clerk was instructed to post the agenda and notify the media and other persons who have
requested notice of the meeting agenda. No other business came before the Board. Upon a
motion by Mr. Mecham, seconded by Mr. Relos and carried, the meeting adjourned at 12:10 p.m.

REJECT PROPOSALS --- CENTURY CENTER FREIGHT ELEVATOR REPLACEMENT —
PROJECT NO. 113-032 CENTURY CENTER
Attorney Cheryl Greene stated proposals were requested on an emergency basis for a freight
elevator that needs repair quickly due to safety issues and impaired functioning of Century
Center. She stated she met this morning with the review committee to review what was tendered
as proposals. The envelopes were opened by the Clerk of the Board, but not reviewed. When she
was told this was an emergency project, Ms. Greene instructed the review team to not look at the
proposals and return them to the contractors and proceed under the Special Purchase process.
Ms. Greene requested the Clerk include a signed affidavit confirming that the proposals were not
reviewed. She also requested the Board reject both proposals received at this morning's review
committee meeting. Therefore, Item No. 5 on the Agenda of August 27, 2013 was moved to
today's meeting and changed from a Request to Award a Proposal, to a Request to Reject
Proposals. Upon a motion made by Mr. Neal, seconded by Mr. Mecham and carried, the above
request to reject all proposals and return to the contractors with an affidavit from the Clerk
confirming they were not reviewed, was approved.
- Proposal — Shot Spotter SST, Inc.
Police Chief Ronald Teachman addressed the Board. He stated that he and the Mayor take gun
violence seriously, and held their third anti -violence meeting last night. He noted it is important
to know the scope of the problem and the City currently relies on calls from the public of
gunshots fired for that information, but records show that only 20% of gunshots are actually
called in. Chief Teachman stated this technology will tell where and when shots are fired in real
time. He added this will help save lives, increase officer's safety, help with locating witnesses,
help with the prosecution of crimes, and the crime data will give the Police Department
predictability. Mr. Greg Rowland, ShotSpotter, Inc., stated they are the sole manufacturer of this
technology provided all over the country now. Mr. Eric Horvath, Public Works, asked if the
technology can distinguish between fireworks and gunshots. Mr. Rowland stated that's an
important feature they spend a lot of energy on. He noted there are some fireworks that the
technology has difficulty distinguishing the difference. Mr. Relos asked if the technology can tell
AGENDA REVIEW SESSION AUGUST 22.2013 250
what caliber of gun is fired. Mr. Rowland stated it can tell power, but not specific brands. He
added that there are cases where the FBI can identify the caliber, but it's expensive technology.
Mr. Rowland stated the Chief is already familiar with the technology, which is a bonus, and they
provide heavy training of anyone using the technology as part of their contract. Mr. Horvath
asked if the data is retained for a certain length of time. Mr. Rowland stated they have two years
with optional longer term back-up data. Chief Teachman noted they supply technology for a
certain square foot area that is data determined as the high incident area. He noted they will put
the technology in the area of highest concentration of gunshots. Chief Teachman added they will
be incorporating the latest data into previous data to determine placement. Ms. Greene stated
there is some question if that placement location can be considered non-disclosable per public
records request. Mr. Rowland explained their Project Manager will look at the area and work
with the City on placement of the sensors. He noted trees can affect the transmission and they
will move the sensor if that becomes an issue. Chief Teachman stated ShotSpotters is used to
working with big cities with high rise buildings including San Francisco. Mr. Rowland noted that
when a gunshot goes off, it sends a message within 45 seconds that will indicate the level of
weapon, exact location, and as much information as possible for the officer's assistance and will
provide for a record of the crime. Chief Teachman noted that having been familiar with the
technology for years he is pleased that some of the problems with technology of false/positives
has been resolved.
- CDBG contracts
Ms. Lory Timmer, Community Investment, stated the City still does not have the funding from
HUD for these contracts, but they hope to have it as early as tomorrow. If not, she added, they
will need to be approved subject to the funding from HUD. She noted all of the contracts are a
continuation of previous year's programs.
- Award Bid --- Two (2) 2014 or Newer 22 Cubic Yard dual Arm side -Loading Refuse
Trucks
Mr. Jeff Hudak, Central Services, stated one bidder submitted two bids, and neither met the
specifications which required a dual arm unit. He noted the Agenda had the incorrect equipment
being awarded, it should state a freightliner. Mr. Hudak noted this equipment will allow Solid
Waste to reduce their operations by one route and reduce staff from three (3) people per truck to
two (2).
- Professional Services Agreement — ME Design Services
Mr. Jacob Klosinski, Environmental Services, stated this HVAC system is located at the
Environmental Services Administration building. Mr. Neal asked if ME Design is providing the
replacement system. Mr. Klosinski stated no, they are just doing the design. Mr. Gilot questioned
if they looked at green solutions. Mr. Klosinski stated they did, but based on the cost, they found
it's better to go with conventional new installation.
- Acceptance of Works Orders -- Century Center
Attorney Cheryl Greene asked Attorney Ann Carol -Nash if she is going through the Common
Council on the Energy Savings Performance Contract for the Century Center. Ms. Carol -Nash
stated she is; this process is just to act as a conduit. Ms. Greene added there are specific
resolutions that should be prepared for an energy performance contract also. Ms. Carol -Nash
stated a Committee was just appointed yesterday at Century Center. Mr. Horvath, Public Works,
noted this is just a qualifications selection. Ms. Greene stated there are some things that need to
get cleaned up in the bid. She noted they are allowed to ask for some specific requirements, but
in general items, they can't be specific as to brand. Mr. Gilot encouraged Ms. Carol -Nash to
change the measurement clause in the contract. He noted the previous contract language used
contained a lot of assumed numbers that could have been measured and verified. Mr. Neal
remarked that the bulk of the contracting is infrastructure to bring the facility up to code.
- Resolution No. 49-2013 --- Related to Acquisition of a Temporary Interest in Property in
the City of South Bend
Attorney Larry Meteiver stated this resolution is to start the process for administration
condemnation for temporary use of right-of-way. He stated the land is basically "no man's land",
never platted, and never dedicated as right-of-way. The intent is for a sidewalk to be installed on
Fellows. Mr. Meteiver noted there was no golf course at the time this area was plotted.
PRIVILEGE OF THE FLOOR
Mr. Jim Bognar, a local resident, stated he was here to discuss an old issue involving the
Washington Street and Chapin Street intersection traffic lighting. He noted that prior to the
development of that area, Chapin Street dead -ended, and there was lighting on both corners.
When the inter -belt was designed, the lighting was to be removed and given to the city. He noted
on the southeast section there are two private drives that come out in a slightly skewed design. In
