Art Sosa, Director of Development Services
(Acting)
BACKGROUNDINFORMATION
The City Council directed the City Manager to set, as a priority the creation of an
organization that will be more responsive to the needs of the development
community and that will make development less cumbersome in the City of Corpus
Christi.
To accomplish this, the City Manager created a single department, titled the
Department of Development Services that will serve as the single point of contact
for developers, contractors, design professionals, and all other members of the
development community. He combined the Building Inspections Operations Division
of Housing and Community Development, the Planning Department, and the Special
Engineering Services Division of Engineering Services into a single department.
The organizational structure has been set, and the business plan and administrative
procedures are being finalized at this time. The mission statement for this
department will include serving as the advocate for the developers on any
development related issue as they attempt to do business with the city. It is the
Manager's expectation that this center will serve as a catalyst for further
development as a result of the improved customer service initiatives. This
department will be in the One Stop Development Center located at the corner of Port
Avenue and Leopard Street in a building renovated for this purpose.
As the building renovations near completion, portions of the infrastructure must be
pumhased and installed. With this action, the city is purchasing and installing phone
and computer equipment and the related networking components to serve the
department. This purchase is for those phone equipment and network components
to be installed in the building.

COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
RECOMMENDATION: (A) Appropriating $147,000 from the Unreserved Fund Balance in the
No. 5110 Maintenance Service Fund to purchase equipment; amending Ordinance No. 024974
which adopted the FY 2002-2003 operating budget by increasing appropriations by $147,000;
and declaring an emergency.
(B) Motion approving the purchase of one used rear steer brush loader and one new rear steer
brush loader from Heil of Texas, Irving Texas based on sole source for a total amount of
$202,000. The brush loaders will be used by the Solid Waste Department. Funds are made
available through a grant from the Coastal Bend Council of Governments and the Maintenance
Service Capital Outlay Fund. Both units are replacements.
Purpose:
The brush loaders will be used in the brush collection operation of the
Solid Waste Department. The rear steer brush loader is a specialized type
of brush loader that has proven to be very effective in the operations of the
department. Two features contribute to its effectiveness. A crane
mounted on a truck chassis provides a loader that is mobilized quickly
from job sight to job site. In addition, the loader allows the operator to
drive the truck and operate the brush loader from a single position. This
feature provides for higher productivity and provides for a safer work
environment for the operator. The proposed used equipment is currently
being rented on an as needed basis due to the high maintenance costs
associated with the existing fleet of loaders. It has a relatively low amount
of work hours on its meter and is still covered under the manufacturer's
warranty. It is available for purchase and will be integrated into the
permanent brush collection schedule upon award of the contract. The new
loader will be delivered within five months of award.
Basis of Award:
Funding:
Sole Source.
The "Lightning Rear Steer" loader is manufactured by Peterson Industries,
Lake Wales Florida. They are the sole manufacturer of this type of loader.
Heil of Texas is the Texas distributor of the Lightning Rear Steer loader.

COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
RECOMMENDATION: Motion approving a supply agreement with Polydyne, Inc.
Riceboro, Ga., for approximately 180 tons of liquid cationic polymer solution in
accordance with Bid Invitation No. BI-0049-03 based on low bid, for an estimated annual
expenditure orS115,200. The term of the supply agreement will be for twelve months
with an option to extend for up to two additional twelve-month periods subject to the
approval of the supplier and the City Manager or his designee. The Water Department
will use this chemical for the treatment of our water supply. Funds have been budgeted
for FY 02-03.
BACKGROUND:
Purpose:
Polymer is used as an aid to settle out the mud and
impurities in our water supply. The polymer has a positive
electrical charge which neutralizes the negatively charged
particles allowing both to come together (floc) and settle to
the bottom of the basins. The clumping together of the
particles makes it easier to separate the solids from the
water.
Previous Contract:
The option to extend the current contract has been
exercised, requiring new bids to be received.
Bid Invitations Issued: Sixteen
Bid Received: Two
Price Analysis:
Pricing has decreased from $790 to $640 since the last
contract of 2000. The supplier states the reason for the
lower bid is that raw materials costs are down considerably,
market pressure, improved operating efficiency and the
desire to win the business. They held the contract
approximately six years ago.
Award Basis:
Low Bid - The Water Department concurs with the
recommendation.

4.2 Severity levels
4.2.1 Severity 1: Product failure/Loss of service
This class of problem is service affecting and deemed a critical problem which requires
immediate action. Service affecting is when "service lost" means inability of the Center to
properly perform its duties.
Such problems would involve total system failure, total loss of functionality, which renders
the system inoperable. The specific list of Severity 1 failures will be pre-determined with
the CITY.
4.2.2 Severity 2: Severely impaired functionality
This class of problem is feature affecting and is deemed an emergency and requires
immediate action by the Support Center. Feature affecting means loss of a feature that limits
the ability of the center to perform its duties but the core abilities (handling of calls) are
unaffected.
Such problems would involve the failure of or loss of fimctionality of any non-critical
functional component/feature, however the system is still operable. Categorization of which
components are non-critical will be agreed with CITY.
4.2.3 Severity 3: Non critical system failure (Non service affecting)
This class of problem requires action from the Support Center within a short time. Such
problems may cause performance degradation or system components to not function
according to specification.
4.2.4 Severity 4: Minor problem or query
This class of problem is non-service affecting. It includes incorrect operation of minor

ANNEX III
DESCRIPTION SEVERITY LEVELS
The following describes the severity levels as understood under this Agreement.
Level 1
Level 1 severity is the highest level of service loss by the PSAP. The primary service,
handling of calls, is no longer available due to failure by a Positron-supplied component.
Level 1 is considered as TOTAL loss of service by the PSAP. This situation will be
processed with the highest level of priority by PPSS regardless of the cause.
Level 2
Level 2 severity indicates that call handling capabilities are present but are severely impacted
by equipment failure. Typical examples are loss of ANI/ALI delivery to positions and loss of
call handling capability at one or more positions.
Level 3
Non-critical system failures that are non-service affecting. The PSAP is capable of handling
calls but certain components are not performing to published specifications. This level
usually applies to performance degradation of any equipment that is non-critical (printer,
stand-by/backup components, etc.).
Level 4
Level 4 severity is a minor problem or a request for configuration service. Non-critical
functions that may be resolved with a workaround are considered under this category. Under
this Agreement, system reconfiguration requests such as speed dial changes will be classified
as Level 4.

CONTRACT SUMMARY
TASK 1 Transition
The transition will consist of:
a visit to the landfill by senior project personnel to examine the existing facilities, monitoring
wells and dedicated equipment;
planning and final selection of equipment;
review and copy pertinent documents in the J. C. Elliot Landfill files;
enter existing data into the statistical database software.
TASK 2 Groundwater Monitorinq
Kleinfelder will conduct the semi-annual monitoring of seventeen (17) groundwater monitoring
wells at the J. C. Elliot Landfill. Monitoring will consist of measuring water levels and collecting
groundwater samples from wells MW-1 through MW-17. Water levels will be measured to the
nearest O.01foot. Wells will be purged by Iow-flow or micro-purging methods in accordance with
"Low-Flow Purging and Sampling Demonstration," dated May 2001, to ensure that water
representative of adjacent the shallow aquifer is obtained in the samples. During purging, water
quality parameters (temperature, specific conductance, pH, mV, and dissolved oxygen) will be
monitored continuously. Purging will be considered complete when three successive
measurements are within limits established in the GWSAP. The flow rate will be adjusted to less
than 100 mi per minute for sample collections. Samples will be collected in the following order:
VOCs, metals, and lastly, other constituents. Samples will be placed into laboratory-supplied
containers with preservatives, as appropriate for the constituent(s). The samples will be chilled
immediately to 4°C and will be delivered daily to the analytical laboratory under chain-of-custody
procedures. Wastewater will be placed in containers and transported to the City of Corpus
Christi's West Side Wastewater Treatment Plant sanitary sewer collection system, or to another
facility as authorized by the City.
Quality assurance / quality control samples will be collected at following frequencies: · Equipment blank, the greater of one per day or per sampling event.
· Field blanks, the greater of one per day'0r per 10 wells.
· Trip blank, the greater of one per event'or cooler containing VOC samples.
· Field duplicates, the greater of one set per event or per 10 wells.
· Split sample, minimum one per event fr~m the most down gradient monitor well.
A state-approved analytical laboratory will analyze the monitor well and quality control samples
for detection monitoring constituents listed in Appendix A, Table 1, of the Groundwater
Sampling and Analysis. AnalySis Inc. will be used as the primary sub-contracting laboratory.
Well condition will be assessed semi-annually during sampling and discrepancies noted that
might impair their suitability to provide representative monitoring information.
TASK 3 Self-Monitorinq Reportinq
Kleinfelder will prepare a summary report for each semi-annual monitoring event. The report will
be presented in a clear and concise format that is consistent with previous reports and
requirements of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The report will

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
BACKGROUND: SUMMARY:
The Federal Aviation Administration constructed a new Air Traffic Control Tower (ATCT)
that is compatible with the new Terminal Building. The new Terminal is a two-story design
to facilitate passenger loading and aircraft operations. The new Terminal Building created
sight line obstructions that required the construction of the new ATCT. The completion of
the new ATCT and Terminal Building permitted all functions to be relocated into the new
facilities. The old Administrative Facilities are being leased to the Transportation Security
Administration pending build out of the lease space in the new Terminal.
The old ACTC and Administrative Facilities are programmed for demolition as part of the
Capital Improvement Program for the Aviation Department. The Texas Department of
Health (TDH) requires an asbestos survey be completed prior to demolition of public
buildings. Any friable asbestos must be abated in advance of demolition.
CONTRACT:
The details of the monitoring are indicated in the contract summary. See Exhibit B.
PRIOR COUNCIL ACTION:
December 17, 2002 - Approval of the FY2003 Capital Budget (Ordinance No. 025144).
CONSULTANT SELECTION:
A Request for Qualifications was issued by the City for the required services. FAA
regulations do not permit locality to be utilized in the evaluation criteria for projects utilizing
Federal funding. Two firms responded to the RFQ for asbestos abatement services. The
firm of ERM Southwest, Inc. was selected as best qualified to perform the required
services. The other responding firm did not possess TDH asbestos licenses, and was
proposing to sub-contract those elements of the work requiring a TDH license. ERM
Southwest is a large consulting firm with a local office.
FUNDING: Funding is available from the Aviation CIP Fund and FAA Grants.

AGENDA MEMORANDUM
January 21, 2003
AGENDA ITEM:
A: Motion authorizing the City Manager, or his designee, to accept a grant in the
amount of $27,216 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) for the
purchase of three Rapid Intervention Kits.
B: Appropriating $27,216 from the Federal Emergency Management Agency's
Assistance for Firefighters Grant Program for fire fighting equipment in the No. 1050
Federal/State Grants fund for the purchase of fire fighting equipment; and declaring an
emergency.
ISSUE: The City of Corpus Christi Fire Department responds to over 400
structural fires per year. Many of these structures are occupied by our citizens. There is
always the real danger that the occupants, or a responding firefighrer, could become lost
in the structure. The Rapid Intervention Kits come equipped with thermal imaging
cameras and other equipment that will allow us to quickly determine if any one is inside a
building that is engulfed with fire and smoke. The cameras will pinpoint the victim and
provide valuable information on how to best develop a plan to rescue the victim or
victims.
FUNDING: The proposed grant requires a 30% hard match of $11,664. The Rapid
Intervention Kits will cost $38,880 which includes the 30% match. Funds for the hard
match have been budgeted by the Fire Department in FY 2002-2003.
REQUIRED COUNCIL ACTION: Council approval is required to authorize City
Manager to accept grant and appropriate grant monies.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving ordinance to appropriate a
grant in the amount of $27,216 received from the Federal Emergency Management
Agency for the purchase of three Rapid Intervention Kits.

ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION
BACKGROUND:
December 17, 2002
The Corpus Christi International Airport has five rent car tenants. The original terminal
design did not provide for sufficient power or phone service to the rent car office/service
counter areas. The City provided for the necessary upgrades by authorizing an
administrative change order with the contractor and funded the upgrade, approximately
$10,000, with bond money. Since then the rent car companies have approached the
Airport Staff and requested that they be allowed to charge a Customer Facility Charges
(CFC) to fund their build-out and future improvements, such as lighted canopies to
cover their cars in the rental car ready lot. The collection of CFCs is a standard industry
practice to facilitate capital improvements. All capital improvements become the
property of the Airport at the end of the leases.
Authorizing the Rent Car companies to collect a CFC for projects approved by the
Director of Aviation, in an amount not to exceed $1.00 per contract day, negates the
requirement to take all five leases to Council in the future every time a rent car
company requests permission to collect a CFC to pay for capital improvements.
Staff recommends approval of the Ordinance as presented.

Exhibit A: Background Information
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
December 17, 2002
BACKGROUND:
The current food and beverage concessionaire entered into a fifteen year lease in
November, 1996. At that time, construction began on the food and beverage facility
which was not completed until November, 1998 in part due to structural problems located
in tim terminal facility. In September, 2000, a portion of the food and beverage facility
was demolished in order to construct the new terminal facility. Due to these unforeseen
issues, the food and beverage concessionaire was unable to generate the profits projected
during negotiations of the lease. The food and beverage operations relocated to the new
facility in November, 2002.
The current lease does not allow for reimbursement of the unamortized portion oftbe
buitdout and equipment at the time they are placed into operations. It requires that
amortization start at the beginning of the lease resulting in a lower reimbursement to the
Conce~ionaire. In order to remedy this, we are recommending that the City pay
$275,000 oftbe build-out costs for the new food and beverage restaurant and in turn, the
Concessionaire will pay to the City a fixed monthly concession fee of $2,594.34 over the
term of the lnng-term lease beginning February 1, 2003. If the long-term lease is not
approved, the Concessionaire will repay the entire $275,000 et the end of the short term
lease. The Concessionaire agrees to open the Chili's Restaurant on or before February 1,
2003. The new lease also clarifies the guaranteed minimum fee which is $.175 per
enplaned passengers beginning in December, 2002 increasing to $.20 in December, 2011.
It also addresses financial reporting procedures, establishes th~ current value of the new
facility and equipment for future depreciation, and allows for depreciation once the asset
is placed into service. This long term lease will be for nine years, the remaining years of
the current long term lease agreement.
Funding: The long term lease does not require an expenditure of funds.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
SUBJECT: Padre Island Overlay District- Appropriation of Funds
BACKGROUND: The Padre Island Business Association (Padre/Mustang Islands
Business and Promotion Association, Inc.) has expressed concern that development on
Padre Island is not completely addressed by the current zoning ordinance. The Association
approached the City concerning the possibility of exploring possible amendments or
creation of an oveday district to address architectural, landscaping, and signage issues.
As a result of meetings between the Association and City staff, it was determined the best
method of proceeding would be for the City to retain the services of a planning consultant.
That consultant would be able to expeditiously review development issues and make
recommendations concerning possible amendments to the City Zoning ordinance. It is
envisioned the recommended zoning amendments are most likely to address regulations
for the B-2A, Barrier Island Business District or a possible overlay district. Nothing in this
contract obligates the amendment or passage of any ordinance(s) by the City Council.
The Association has made an initial payment of $3,000. The contract provides for the
Association to pay the City one half the consultant's invoices within 30 days of receipt up
to the total of $9,000. The Planning Department budget includes funding for the other half
of the consultant's fee.
RECOMMENDATION: Passage of the ordinance and motion as presented.
