RENEWAL AND MODIFICATION OF THE JOINT AGENCY INTEGRA TED PUBLIC
SAFETY SYSTEM (lPSS) AGREEMENT
(P-150-150)
Police Captain Byard explained that since 1991, the cities of Redding and Anderson and the
County of Shasta have worked cooperatively to develop, improve, and consolidate various
records and other informational resources available to law enforcement agencies through
formation of the Integrated Public Safety System (IPSS). The IPSS has successfully operated
since that time as an example of inter-agency cooperation, and law enforcement agencies
have benefitted greatly from this partnership. He related that IPSS Task Force members (the
Police Chiefs of Redding and Anderson and the Shasta County Sheriff) are requesting that
the IPSS agreement be modified and approved for an additional five years. Captain Byard
summarized the modifications to the agreement as follows: The City of Redding will act as
lead agency and IPSS fund administrator, the positions of IPSS Coordinator and IPSS
Technical Development Leader shall be funded by the City of Redding through Police
Department State Block grant funding and Shasta County, any party withdrawing from or'
terminating the agreement will be solely responsible for all costs resulting from their action,
and amendments to the agreement shall be made by a majority of parties rather than all
parties. He added that IPSS operating costs are shared jointly by the City of Redding, the
County of Shasta, and the City of Anderson in a 45%, 45%, and 10%, respectively, ratio.

Captain Byard recommended that the City Council approve the amended Integrated Public
Safety System (IPSS) agreement between the City of Redding, the City of Anderson, and the
County of Shasta for a five-year period commencing January 15, 2002, and that the Mayor
be authorized to execute the agreement.
I
IPSS Project Coordinator, Suzie Kyle, with Shasta County Information Systems, and IPSS
Technical Development Manager Flint Cokeley, Lead Systems Analyst for the City of
Redding provided an overview of IPSS and how information is processed and distributed.
Mr.Cokeley pointed out that a Shasta County IPSS Manager was among the first in the
nation to contact the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to determine if watch list
information regarding the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks could be distributed in
electronic form to the IPSS database, eliminating voluminous teletype information and man
hours.
Council Member Cibula expressed concern regarding the agreement modification which
provided for future amendments to the agreement being made by a majority rather than
consensus of all parties, pointing out that the City, which is providing 45% of the funding,
could be opposed by the other two agencies on any matter. Captain Byard responded that the
amendments to the agreement were suggested by legal counsel and he stressed that the ')
agencies have a strong working relationship with a history of cooperation. He emphasized
the cost effectiveness of the system and its high approval rating by all agencies.
Council Member McGeorge commended the Redding Police Department and the
participating agencies for their cooperation.

PROJECT SCOPE FOR THE REDDING AOUATIC CENTER (REDDING PLUNGE)
AND A WARD OF BID SCHEDULE No. 3520 .
.' ", .~ ,
(B-050-020 & P-050-700-600)
City Manager Warren recall~d that at the regular City Council meeting of January 2,2002,
Council directed staff to return with alternative methods to fund the $1.9 million shortfall in
. . ',' . -,. . ..~. . ,.' . - ,J . .. ;
the Aquatjc Center (Redqing Plunge) recon~truction project. Council further directed staff
to provide a~ditional infofl11ation regarding total costs for the Project, comparison figures
of economiG benefits and revenues dt;rived frorn the renovated facility, and to identify effects
to the Sports Complex proje.ct should a portion of those funds b~ diverted to the Aquatic
Center. . .
Mr.W arren advi~ed that in developing alternatives, three goals were maintained: 1) remain
within the authorized budget; 2) defer only items that could be put back into the project
easily apd inexpensively; and 3) maintain the integrity of both the Aquatic Center and Sports
Complex projects.
Mr. Warren explained th~t staff clqsely examined the Aquatic Center project in an effort to
r~view and iden~ify all confirmed resources available to fund th~ project as of the January 2,
2002, me.eting and any changes since that time as follows:

In addition to the above listed increased revenue resources, Mr. Warren recommended certain
elements of the Aquatic Center Pr9ject which cO\lld be eliminated, deferred, or funded by
other sources to further red~ce the Project fiJnding gap such as the scor~board, fast tracking,
reduced l;lccessories, bridge financing for multi-year grants, ~d the change house, for a total
cost reduction of$541,000. .
Mr. Warren explained that the remaining $721,720 shortfall could be eliminated by further
c' cuts to the Aquatic Center, reductions to the Sports Complex, or both. If Council is interested
in reducing the cost of both projects, he indicated that an additional $175,000 in reductions
is possible through value engineering/deductive change orders with the contractor, Dale
Construction. He explained while these changes have yet to be negotiated pending Council's
formal award of bid, they would include a reduced amount of decking and landscaping and
revisions to construction materials on the mechanical/concession/restroom building.

Mr. Warren recommended reductions to the Sports Complex Project as follows:
1. $300,000 - over-estimated funding for the Sports Complex Project
2. $250,000 - eliminate/defer two water features and public art.
He pointed out that potential resource opportunities from State grants, a Statewide Bond
Measure, and swim clubs fund raising also exist and could amount to approximately $1.3
million. Should any of these resources become a reality, items identified for elimination or
deferral could be reintroduced to both projects.
I
Mr. Warren recommended that the City Council approve $651,500 in increased resources as
described, $541,000 in project cost reductions to the Aquatic Center as herein identified, and
reductions to the Sports Complex in the amount of $550,000, and that staff be directed to
negotiate deductive change orders with Dale Construction in a minimum amount of$17 5,000
for a total of $1 ,917,500 in projects' cost reductions. He also recommended that the bid for
the Aquatic Center be awarded to Dale Construction in the amount of$3,986,157.00.
Council Member Cibula expressed support for the project and applauded staff's efforts in
developing a responsible approach to project funding which will not compromise the integrity
of either project. He thanked those who worked diligently on this project for the benefit of
the community.

Council Member Pohlmeyer expressed support for the Aquatic Center, but suggested that
rebidding the project may result in cost savings and restore public confidence.
Council Member Stegall also expressed support for the project and appreciated staff's work,
but was reluctant to support rebidding the project, opining that Dale Construction's revealed
project price would greatly compromise the sealed bid process. She also reaffirmed her
opposition to increasing the adult admission fee.
I
Council Member McGeorge commended staff on the report and concurred with Council
Member Stegall regarding rebidding the project. He, too, did not support an increase in the
adult admission fee and suggested that the all weather multi-purpose Sports Pavilion at the
Sports Complex be eliminated for a savings of $706,000.
Mayor Kight expressed support for the projects as presented by staff and thanked the
community for its interest and support.
Jim Komar, representing the Redding Aquatic Swim Team, presented a check to City Council
in the amount of $5,500 for the Aquatic Center. He advised that the check represented a
portion of a larger commitment to the Project.

Sally Riley, representing the Construction Industry Force Account Council (CIF AC),
supported the project but expressed concern regarding the bid process. She cautioned that
negotiations between the City and the apparent low bidder prior to formal award of the bid
is a violation of the Public Contract Code.
Administrative Director Bachman responded that no price negotiations have taken place 'Yith
Dale Construction regarding the project.
Jim Underwood, attorney representing Dale Construction, confirmed that no negotiations have
taken place regarding the bid amount, but added that Dale Construction is willing to consider
value engineering and has offered to work with the City to bring the project to fruition.
