Approving Change Order No. 4 to the Central Public Library in the amount of $16,613. This change order provides for substituting Ludowici roof tile for U.S. Tile, which was included in the recent change order authorizing the third floor shell. The library architect and the staff feel that the superior Ludowici tile should be used because it is stronger, has better color, is glazed making it non—water absorbent, and is less likely to break in storms which would result in leaks in the building. Funds are available in the contingency appropriation for the project. City Manager Martin assured the Council that the tile referred to in this item is preferable to that included in the original contract. Council Member Strong referred to item 4 and inquired if the Council would be provided with the list of parks designated to receive the playground equipment, and Mr. Martin read a list of the Parks. *Council Member Mary Pat Slavik arrived at the meeting at 2:13 p.m. Minutes Regular Council Meeting July 2, 1985 Page 4 Council Member McComb referred to the item 6a and stated that he was glad that the brick being substituted is of higher quality but questioned why the brick was not examined prior to the original contract award. He expressed the opinion that this was the architectb responsibility, and City Manager Martin agreed. In a further reference to item 4, Council Member Berlanga inquired why Vanderbilt Park, which is in Arcadia Village Subdivision, was not included on the list to obtain playground equipment, and Mr. Martin explained that funds are limited and only a certain number of parks can be improved. Council Member Mendez inquired about the planned use of the additional third floor that was recently approved by the Council for the Central Library. He mentioned that the Nueces County Law Library is not open on weekends or evenings and inquired if it would be possible to have a law library at the new public library for use in the evenings and on Saturday. He suggested that negotiations be considered with Nueces County to provide space for the law library. City Manager Martin explained that the third floor of the library will not be completed for at least five years, reminding the Council that it will just be the walls and will not be finished inside. He agreed that at the time the third floor of the library is completed, discussion could be held with Nueces County in regard to this possibility. Mayor Pro Tem Best called for comments from the audience on items 1 through 6a. There were none. Approval of the motions passed by the following vote: Best, Berlanga, Guerrero, McComb, Mendez, Pruet, Slavik, and Strong voting "aye"; Jones absent at the time the vote was taken. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Pro Tem Best noted that Mr. Harry Plomarity, Chairman of the Sister City Committee, had arrived at the meeting and called for his presentation. Mr. Plomarity informed the Council that plans for the student exchange with Yokosuka, Japan was proceeding on schedule and that on July 22 the four students from Corpus Christi will depart for Yokosuka and on July 27, the four Japanese students will arrive here in Corpus Christi. He stated that he had contacted Sister Cities International and they will recommend Sister Cities in Mexico to replace the former Sister City, Tampico. He explained some of the problems in establishing the Sister City relationship with Cartagena, Spain and assured the Council that he was working on this. Mr. Plomarity expressed concern at the large number of members on the Sister City Committee and stated that they are recommending that the number of members be reduced to 15, and that this be done through attrition. He expressed appreciation to the City Council for allowing him to serve for the past six years and if it were possible, he would like to complete the plans for the Sister City relationship with Cartagena in some capacity, either as an ad hoc member or an ex -officio member. tnute8 ,egular Council Meeting July 2, 1985 Page 5 Mayor Pro Tem Best suggested that Mr. Plomarity remain as an active member of the committee until appointments are made next week, and the Council indicated their concurrence. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Pro Tem Best called for consideration of the consent ordinances on items 7 through 18. Council Member Slavik referred to Ordinance 12, which pertains to condemnation settlement with a property owner for the acquisition of four parcels for the Navy Clear Zones. She inquired as to why the property was not condemned sooner, since the offer was made in 1983. City Manager Martin explained that that was not the offer, that was the time of the appraisal. He explained that the City is in no rush to obtain this land; they are acquiring these on an "as needed" basis; negotiations usually require two years; and as long as there is the possibility of successful negotiations, there is no reason to condemn property. Mayor Pro Tem Best inquired if anyone in the audience wished to comment on the ordinances, and there was no response.

Authorizing the City Manager or his designee to advertise a Request for Proposals for the historic rehabilitation and adaptive re -use as a restaurant of the old filling station on the northeast corner of North Chaparral and Fitzgerald Street. *20. Authorizing the expenditure of up to $10,000 over a one year period to pay one half of the expenses of a part time Municipal Judge to perform magistrate services in the County jail; authorizing the recruitment for this position; and authorizing the City Manager to enter into an intergovernmental agreement with the County for this program. 21. Renewal of the contract between the City and Nueces County for an employ- ment and training program under the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA) of 1982 establishing the terms and conditions for the administration of the program. Council Member McComb referred to item 19 and questioned why this delapidated filling station is being advertised for rehabilitation. City Manager Martin explained that the staff was of the opinion that this is an exciting project to provide a restaurant which will be compatible with the renovated homes in Heritage Park. He explained that there is a need for such a facility to serve visitors. Council Member McComb then inquired about the reason for the expenditure of $10,000 to pay one-half the expenses for a part-time Municipal Judge to perform magistrate services in the County jail, when evidently the Municipal Court Judges are only working part time now. He suggested that since they are being paid a full time salary, but working part time, they should be assigned to the duties at the County jail. Council Members Guerrero and Slavik indicated their concurrrence with Mr. McComb. City Manager Martin explained that this position needs to be approved since it is a cooperative one with Nueces County. He stated that the issue of the Municipal Court Judges working part time can be resolved at a future date. * Withdrawn by the City Manager - See page 9. 'nutes :gular Council Meeting July 2, 1985 Page 9 Council Member McComb reminded the Council that Judge Jack Hunter had informed them that he allows the Municipal Court Judges off after one-half a day. He again suggested that rather than giving them time off, that they go to the courthouse to cover those cases. City Manager Martin again suggested that this item be passed just as a joint venture with Nueces County, and Council Member Strong stated that she is in favor of this because she feels that this judge is needed. Council Member McComb reiterated that the City has more Municipal Court Judges employed than they have space to accomodate them. Council Member Mendez agreed and pointed out that the City has a sub- committee working on the municipal court to provide a report on this subject. City Manager Martin referred to the subcommittee and stated that he had made it very clear to the Council that he would not start that project until the budget has been completed, and if the Council concurs with the concept, this item can be rescheduled next week and have Judge Hunter appear before the Council to discuss it. City Manager Martin then withdrew item 20. Mayor Pro Tem Best called for comments from the audience and there was no response. A motion was made by Council Member Guerrero that items 19 and 21 be approved, seconded by Council Member Strong and passed unanimously. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Pro Tem Best called for Regular Agenda on items 22 and 23.

Bernsen, Jr. Assistant City Manager Tom Utter briefly explained the circumstances of the structure on this property, stating that it was a one -family residential unit; Mr. Bernsen constructed an addition to the home; and two kitchens were built.

A motion was made by Council Member Guerrero that this recommendation be approved, seconded by Council Member Pruet and passed unanimously. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Jones stated that he would like to make a few comments in regard to the awarding of Homeport to the City of Corpus Christi. He stated that everyone was elated over this event and provided a description of his visit with Governor White. Council Member Guerrero referred to the zoning case heard the preceding week for Mr. Xavier Gonzalez (Zoning Application No. 685-1). He stated that Mr. Gonzalez alleges that he did not receive a notice of the public hearing and that tinutes Regular Council Meeting July 2, 1985 Page 11 was the reason he was not present for his hearing. He suggested that the case be reconsidered to allow Mr. Gonzalez an opportunity to speak. After consulting with the Assistant City Attorney, Mr. Jay Doegey, City Manager Martin explained that a motion to reconsider the action previously taken must be made by a Council Member who voted to deny the zoning application. A motion was made by Council Member Guerrero to reconsider the zoning case of Mr. Xavier Gonzalez, seconded by Council Member Mendez and passed by the following vote: Jones, Berlanga, Guerrero, Mendez, Slavik, and Strong voting "aye"; Best, McComb, and Pruet voting "no." The motion to reconsider passed. Council Member Mendez reminded the Council Members of their commitment to participate in Operation Paintbrush on July 13, 1985, and informed them that the house the Council has been assigned to paint is at 1702 Craig, owned by Mrs. Ruth Williams. He requested that those who wish to participate in this effort sign a memorandum so that additional workers can be recruited if necessary. Council Member Pruet mentioned the exciting announcement that this City will have Homeport and suggested that more emphasis be placed on the planned 4th of July celebration and that it be called 4th of July-Homeport and a proclama- tion be issued to that effect. He informed the Council that the Navy has expressed a desire to participate in the 4th of July celebration in honor of the award of Homeport. Mayor Jones agreed that this would be appropriate and stated that he would be glad to designate the proclamation 4th of July-Homeport. Council Member Pruet invited everyone to attend a Homeport party to be held on the third floor of the Hershey Hotel beginning at 4:00 p.m. to celebrate. * * * * * * * * * * * * * Mayor Jones called for petitions or information from the audience on matters not scheduled on the agenda. Mrs. Maria S. Linan, 5133 Larcade, informed the Council of an extreme drainage problem that has occurred on her street since the reconstruction performed by the City. She stated that the drainage is much worse; the water stands for some time because of the drainage that comes from S. Padre Island Drive and Sacky Drive; the standing water creates mosquitos and roaches; and she feels that it is a health hazard. Mrs. Linan stated that she does not wish to pay her assessment until the drainage has been corrected and she has been unsuccessful in persuading anyone in the City to do anything about it. City Manager Martin stated that he would be glad to have someone investigate this problem. There being no further business to come before the Council, on motion by Council Member McComb, seconded by Council Member Strong and passed unanimously, the Regular Council Meeting was adjourned at 3:16 p.m., July 2, 1985.
