A copy of Change Order Nos. 3, 4 and 5 are filed with Resolution No. 4792.
The referenced change orders are as follows:
Change Order No. 3, in the amount of $15,985, is for the repair of
44 deteriorated marblecrete patches. The repairs will give a
water -tight roof by preventing water from penetrating the flashings
behind the marblecrete. The contractor discovered large
deteriorated patches on the terminal building. In February 1995,
the contractor estimated a base price for the identified damage and
in addition quoted a square -foot price to allow for repair of any
additional damage that may occur between the time of the estimate
and actual repairs.
Change Order No. 4, in the amount of $5,180, is for additional
flashing repairs on the windows on nine roof areas. This will also
give a water -tight roof by preventing water from penetrating the
metal capping that is installed. The difference in construction of
this set of windows was not discovered until reroofing began. This
item stems from a design peculiarity along a lower panel of
windows just above the canopy section of the terminal building.
Change Order No. 5, in the amount of $24,284, is for additional
electrical work that was not as detailed according to the plans and
also for unit price electrical work as listed in the unit price section
of the contract. Because many of these junction boxes that needed
to be reworked were not visible until roofing construction began,
the estimate was based on the number of boxes identified in the
plans. However, there were six additional boxes, not shown on the
plans, that needed to be reworked. The estimate included a per unit
cost to allow for these additional boxes.
These represent final actions that need to be taken to complete out
the roofing project. This item is being brought before Council
since the aggregate total is in excess of the amount that can be
authorized without Council approval.

Southeast Water Reclamation Plant Improvements Contract No. 4, to add lump sum for
modification of effluent pumps EP-804 and 805 to increase the performance capacity of

A copy of Change Order No. 6 is filed with Resolution No. 4793.
Contract No. 4, originally awarded to BRB for a contract amount
of $10,185,000, is one of four construction contracts in the $50.6
million project to expand, upgrade, and renovate the Southeast
Water Reclamation Plant. Contract No. 4 involves the renovation
of Plants No. 2 and No. 3, improvements to the laboratory, and the
demolition and removal of Plant No. 1.

This change order provides for the modification of effluent pumps,
along with associated motors and variable speed drives, to increase
the performance capacity on the pipeline to the Southwestern
Public Service Company's Jones Power Plant. This is necessary in
order to provide the electric power plant with the required volume
of treated effluent in accordance with provisions of the existing
contract between the City of Lubbock and SPS. The pumps
originally specified were undersized because the construction
drawings of the effluent pipeline which were provided to the
design engineer contained misleading information pertaining to the
length of the pipeline. Also, the estimates of the volume required
for delivery of the effluent to the electric generating plant were
low.
Change Order No. 6 would add $84,599 to the contract and, along
with five previous change orders, would increase the contract
amount by $103,580 to a total of $10,288,580, or a 1.02 percent
overall change to the original contract. Funds to cover the increase
are included in the project contingency funds.
This change order is required in order to deliver the required
volume of treated effluent to the SPS Jones Station power plant.
Staff recommended approval of this item.
Motion was made by Councilmember Ince, seconded by
Councilmember Sitton to authorize Resolution #4793 as

A Supplemental Maintenance Support Agreement is filed with Resolution No. 4794.
In late 1994 a new computer based Supervisory Control and Data
Acquisition (SCADA) Master Station was installed at the LP&L
Operations Center. This computer system monitors and controls
critical equipment, processes and conditions at LP&L substations
and power plants. LP&L has had remote monitoring and control of
all transmission and distribution substations for over 30 years due
to their critical nature. This new master station replaced an
existing unit that had been in service nearly 15 years.
The Maintenance Support Agreement will provide full subscription
hardware and software support for LP&L's new Master
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) computer
system. The Maintenance Support Agreement has been studied by
LP&L, Information Services and City Attorney's Office for
content, application, and economics. This Maintenance Support
Agreement is to be executed annually for the life of the equipment.
This Maintenance Support Agreement will permit LP&L to
maintain their SCADA system by utilizing the most advanced
state-of-the-art software and hardware that is available in the
electrical utility industry today.
LP&L and Information Services recommended the approval of this
resolution approving the Maintenance Support Agreement.

A copy of Change Order No. 1 is filed with Resolution No. 4795.
This change order is for the replacement of eight northwest corner
water wall tubes which do not meet the National Board Inspection
Codes 1989 (NBIC), or the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section 1.
The tube wall thickness should be a minimum of 0.147 inches,
according to the Code. The current eight tubes are from 0.131 to
0.109 inches in thickness. The State of Texas requires all power
boilers to meet the NBIC and ASME codes in order to be licensed.
At the present time this boiler is not licensed.
The amount of the change order is $18,940, which is an increase of
4.04 percent of the original contract price of $487,200. This tube
work was not covered in the original bid and is therefore additional
work. The work should be done before the boiler is inspected,
reskinned, and insulated.

A copy of the Temporary Parks License Agreement is filed with Resolution No. 4796.
In June 1994, the Parks and Recreation Department was
approached by Knights of Columbus #3008 to host a Cinco de
Mayo Festival on May 5-7, 1995, at the Buddy Holly Recreation
Area, adjacent to the Landwer Party House. This request included
the desire to allow the sale and consumption of alcoholic beverages
as part of the event on May 5, 6 and 7.
At the June 28, 1994, Park Board meeting, the Knights presented
the request and it was unanimously approved by the Park Board.
The park area was reserved for the event with details to be worked
out with Park and Recreation staff. Through a series of meetings
and discussions, the details were worked out.
Guidelines and procedures have been developed to ensure that
special concerts or events would fall under proper control, access,
security and management when alcohol is sold on this property.

The Parks and Recreation staff also has policies, procedures, and
operating regulations that each group be mandated to follow for
each concert or event unless their specific lease exempts them from
a provision. Requests for events including alcohol sales must be
approved by the Parks Board and then by the City Council.
In order to ensure that this event has proper security and other
safeguards to provide an orderly event, the following are provided
in the lease agreement.
Security fencing by K of C
Alcoholic beverage concessions - maximum of 2 stands
Liability Insurance - $1,000,000 by K of C
Security - 3 officers per 1,000 participants
Parking - offsite parking south of concert site

Restroom Facilities - minimum of 20
First aid station - minimum of 2
Bands by K of C
Promotion by K of C
Litter control by K of C

The Knights of Columbus have previously held three similar
events under this agreement, and the Knights agreed to a fee of
$750 per day, with Friday, May 5, being a half -day fee of $375.
The City will make $1,875 for this three-day festival, less minor
expenses for electricity and site preparation.
The resolution would allow the Mayor to enter into an agreement
that will allow Knights of Columbus Council #3008 to sell
alcoholic beverages during their Cinco de Mayo Festival. Staff
and the Parks and Recreation Board recommended approval of this
resolution in accordance with the agreement and policies.

A copy of Change Order No. 1 is filed with Resolution No. 4798.
The bid price of $1,744,696 for the 1995 Street Maintenance
Program is more than the available funds of $1.7 million.
Therefore, several streets need to be removed from the street list.
A total of 52,333 square yards of streets were selected to be
removed from the 1995 program. The streets were selected for
removal because it was felt that they could best be carried over
until next year's program with the least amount of deterioration.
The reduction will have no significant effect on the time required
to complete the project.
This Change Order represents a 4.5 percent decrease to the 1995
Street Maintenance Program.
Original Amount of Contract $1,744,696.66
Amount Decreased by Change Order No. 1 78,115.36
New Contract Total $1,666,581.30

On June 22, 1989, the City of Lubbock entered into a street -use
license agreement with West Texas Microwave for the purpose of
installing and maintaining an underground fiberoptic
communication cable in street right-of-way area from South Loop
289 to 52nd Street and Avenue A. West Texas Microwave has
now approached the City about installing a new cable from 52nd
Street and Avenue A westward and northward down 52nd Street,
Avenue D, 42nd Street, Avenue J, 32nd Street, Avenue M, 31 st
Street, Avenue N, 24th Place, Avenue P, 17th Street, Avenue K to
the alley north of Broadway west of Avenue L. This new cable
will be overhead and travel through approximately 21,208 feet of
street right-of-way. The valuation of this one -foot wide by
21,208-foot long license amendment will be as follows:
1,525 feet at $4.00 per foot $ 6,100.00
3,060 feet at $2.00 per foot $ 6,120.00
16,623 feet at 30¢ per foot $ 4,986.90
$17,206.90
Applying the street -use license formula for an overhead line, staff
calculated $17,206.90 x 75% x 10% = $1,290.52 per year cost.
The original license which this resolution is amending is for 20
years, payable every five years in advance. The first five-year
payment due to the City will be $6,452.60. All utilities are in
agreement and no problems are seen with this amendment.
The Right -of -Way Department recommended the approval of this
street -use license amendment.

RESOLUTION #4801
WHEREAS, the City of Lubbock heretofore entered into an agreement with Big

collection system for Cell IV(b) 1 Phase 1 at the City of Lubbock landfill facility; and
WHEREAS, final installation of the liner was to be performed by City personnel,
but the liner was damaged during installation; and
WHEREAS, it was determined that final installation of the liner should be
performed by the contractor as the City lacked proper equipment and expertise to install
the liner without damage; and
WHEREAS, the immediate completion of the lining was essential to the health of
the citizens of the City of Lubbock due to the amount of incoming waste being received
by the landfill; NOW THEREFORE:
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LUBBOCK:
THAT the City Council hereby authorizes and approves the attached Change
Order No. 1 to Project No. 12913 by Big D Lining Systems, Inc., for liner repairs and

A copy of Change Order No. 1 is filed with Resolution No. 4801.
On April 28, 1994, the Council awarded a contract in the amount
of $267,488.10 (Project #12913) to Big D Lining Systems, Inc., of
Midland, Texas, for the construction of the flexible membrane liner
and leachate collection system for Cell IV B I Phase 1. The project
was originally bid with the intention of using City equipment and
City personnel to perform the final phase of the lining work. The
final phase of the lining process consists of placing 2 feet of
protective soil cover over the flexible membrane liner and leachate
collection system. On September 6, 1994, while placing the first
lift of the final two -feet of protective soil cover, City equipment
operators ripped a portion of the flexible membrane liner. The
liner was separated at the seam, causing the integrity of the liner to
be damaged. It was immediately determined that City employees
lacked the equipment and expertise required to place the final dirt
cover on the flexible membrane liner without causing additional
damage to the liner.
Current regulations require that waste be placed only in cells that
have been lined as per 30 TAC 330. The completion of this lining
project was of utmost importance as the landfill was out of lined
space and the incoming waste was being placed in a cell which had
already reached its permitted capacity. As such, it was determined
that Big D Lining should complete the work necessary to finish the
project on an emergency basis. The invoiced amount for the
additional work is $32,810.26, which is 12.3 percent of the original
contract price. Both the Solid Waste Management staff and the
project engineers believe that this is a fair and reasonable price for
the additional work.
Staff recommended approval of this change order.

DELETED BY CITY COUNCIL).
Larry Hertel, City Engineer, presented staff comments. On August
25, 1994, the City Council conducted a public hearing to consider
paving assessments for three alleys and three streets and conducted
the first of three readings required for the paving assessment
ordinance.
260
City Council Minutes
April 13, 1995
Page 261
After the public hearing, the Council made the following decisions
relative to these alleys and streets:
Unit A-461-34: The north -south alley between York
Avenue and Wayne Avenue from 4th Street to York
Avenue.
Unit A-461-35: The north -south alley between York
Avenue and Zoar Avenue from 4th Street to York
Avenue.
Unit A-461-36: The east west alley between F.M. 1730
(Slide Road) and Zoar Avenue and between 75th Street and
76th Street.
Unit 2035-96: 20th Street from Kewanee Avenue to Juneau
Avenue.
Pave these units as indicated on the plans and assess the abutting
property owners at the calculated rate (90 percent of the paving
cost and 100 percent of the curb and gutter cost) if the majority of
the owners will execute an agreement stating that they believe the
enhancement value is equal to the assessment rate set by the City
Council.
The required agreement has been signed and returned by a majority
of the property owners.
Unit 2035-94: Frankford Avenue from 66th Street to 82nd
Street.
Unit 2035-95: 98th Street from Indiana Avenue to Slide
Road.
Pave these units as indicated on the plans and assess the abutting
property owners at the enhancement rate as determined by the
appraiser with the exception of Parcel No. 11 of Unit 2035-95,
which is to be assessed at the calculated rate. The enhancement
value exceeded the calculated rate for this parcel.
This third and final reading of the paving ordinance has been
delayed in order to receive bids for these projects. The calculated
enhancement rates which were considered at the public hearing and
were based on estimated bid prices. The final assessment rates can
be lowered if the actual bid prices are lower than the estimated bid
prices used in calculating the rates for the public hearing.
However, the assessment rates cannot be raised above the amounts
considered at the public hearing and mailed to the property owners.

gutter rate for 98th Street. This rate is adjusted to $5.37 so that the
total amount of the assessment does not exceed the City's 20
percent of the 98th Street cost.
Staff recommended that the ordinance be approved. This action
would keep all the units on the paving program.

A copy of the Contract is filed with Resolution No. 4807.
John Wilson, General Manager Transit, presented staff comments.
In the original contract, State Public Transportation Funds (PTF)
of $267,870 were allocated to the City of Lubbock for FY94-95 for
operating assistance. The State has agreed to amend the contract to
give the City an additional $150,377 in PTF for operating
assistance, for a total of $418,247. All other terms, conditions and
provisions of the original contract shall remain in full force and
effect.
The entire amount, $150,377, would be used in FY95 to fund the
transit operations. This would create a $150,377 surplus in the
City of Lubbock funds previously allocated to transit. The staff
recommended that these funds be spent as follows:
Increase the transit vehicle order from 34 vehicles to 36
vehicles. The two additional vehicles would be 30- or 35-
foot buses, or trolleys. This would require $80,000 of the
$150,377. This $80,000 would be spent by the City in
FY96.
263
City Council Minutes
April 13, 1995
Page 264
Utilize the remaining $70,377 as a contribution to the
Citibus Employee Health Care Fund. This would bring the
fund balance to approximately $160,000, and could be used
to reduce operating expenses in subsequent years.
The Public Transit Advisory Board (TAB) approved the staff
recommendations. The TAB (in a split vote of four to three) also
made the recommendation to purchase trolleys instead of buses.
The reasons for recommending trolleys are as follows:
The federal grant approved in February 1995 was for 80
percent of two trolleys ($320,000), although it could be
used for buses.
To have an effective downtown shuttle, Citibus would need
four vehicles to run frequently enough to attract customers
(three vehicles on the route and one as a spare).
With the Depot District and the Broadway landscape
projects, there might be a better opportunity for the service.
The reasons for the buses are as follows:
The Texas Tech Student Association is planning to expand
their service by two vehicles in FY95-96 (contingent upon
approval by the Board of Regents).
The trolleys must be used in public service 80 percent of
the time and there is no plan to fund the downtown trolley
service currently. Without such a plan the public service
requirement may not be met.
Due to service demands, Citibus plans to keep up to six of
the 1980 GMC buses as spares. By purchasing two more
buses, Citibus would not have to keep as many of the old
ones.
Trolleys are more expensive to maintain than regular buses
and not as flexible in their use as buses for various services.
The Citibus staff recommended the approval of the amendment to
Contract No. 515-XXF-6015 to be used for operating funds. After
the TAB's discussion of trolleys and buses, the staff feels buses
would be preferred rather than trolleys since there is no concrete
plan for funding a downtown trolley route.
Councilmember Ince indicated his concern regarding the allocation
of $70,377 to the Citibus Employee Care Fund.
Motion was made by Councilmember Cooke, seconded by
Councilmember Sitton to authorize Resolution #4807 with the
understanding that the funds not be used for trolleys as
recommended by staff. Motion carried: 4 Yeas; 0 Nays.

A copy of the Funding Agreement is filed with Resolution No. 4808.
Doug Goodman, Managing Director of Health and Community
Services, presented staff comments. Under the HOME Program,
the City of Lubbock is required to set aside 15 percent of their
HOME Grant to be given to a Community Housing Development
Organization (CHDO). The total 15 percent set -aside funding
available is $245,850. On November 18, 1994, the Community
Housing Resource Board (CHRB) asked to be considered as the
CHDO for the FY94 and FY95 HOME Program. As a CHDO,
CHRB would provide housing that is affordable to low and
moderate income persons. On March 4, 1994, CHRB was certified
as a CHDO and eligible to receive all or a portion of the City's 15
percent minimum HOME set -aside funding.
265
City Council Minutes
April 13, 1995
Page 266
CHRB proposes to provide a program called "The First -Time
Homebuyer Lease/Purchase Program." This program addresses the
needs of many potential first-time homebuyers who may not be
ready to assume the responsibilities of homeownership, but who
with counseling, homeownership nurturing and time will mature
into excellent first-time homebuyer candidates.
CHRB intends to purchase and rehabilitate properties at a cost of
$170,850. Once in possession of the properties, the CHDO
sponsor would lease the property to a first-time homebuyer for a
period of one to three years, after which time the applicant would
be assessed to see if they can purchase. At the expiration of the
lease, the CHDO must sell or transfer the property along with the
HOME loan/grant obligations to the first-time homebuyer.
The lease will provide for the lease/purchaser to make monthly
payments to the CHDO. After payments for any major repairs and
maintenance, fire and casualty insurance and real estate taxes (if
not exempt), the CHDO will be required to establish a Special
Reserve Account designed to meet projected downpayment and
closing costs associated with permanent mortgage financing on
behalf of the lease/purchaser.
This year, all CHDO projects were submitted for review by the
CHDO Subcommittee of the Lubbock Housing Consortium on
November 17, 1994. Three projects were submitted, one by
Guadalupe Economic Services and two by the Community
Housing Resource Board. The Housing Consortium approved
CHRB for funding on December 28, 1994, and concurred that the
projects be recommended to the Neighborhood Redevelopment
Commission of the City. On February 21, 1995, the Neighborhood
Redevelopment Commission voted to recommend the Community
Housing Resource Board to the City Council for HOME CHDO
set -aside funding. The Housing Rehabilitation staff joins the
Neighborhood Redevelopment Commission in recommending this
project for funding.
Yolanda Jimenez, Executive Director of CHRB, addressed
Councilmember Sitton's concern about the potential for illegal
activities of the tenants. Ms. Jimenez indicated that there will be
individuals monitoring the activities that are going on in the units.
Motion was made by Councilmember Cooke, seconded by

Community Housing Resource Board (CHRB) involves the
acquisition in the North Overton area of an eight -unit apartment
complex formerly owned and utilized by the South Plains
Children's Shelter, Inc. Specifically, the complex is located at
1010 and 1012 Avenue R. CHRB has a $25,000 commitment from
American State Bank to go toward the purchase of the complex if
the balance of the funds are approved through this project.
Currently the project has a 90 percent occupancy and is being used
to house low income Tech students enrolled in the Center for Drug
Addiction Program. In the future, as units become available, the
project will house anyone who meets the occupancy requirements,
is in need of affordable rental housing, and is low income.

A copy of the HOPE 3 Implementation Grant Application is filed with Resolution No.
4810.
Doug Goodman, Managing Director of Health and Community
Services, presented staff comments. Under the Cranston -Gonzalez
Affordable Housing Act of 1990, the Homeownership
Opportunities for People Everywhere Program (HOPE) was
created. The City of Lubbock has prepared an application for
funding for the 1995 fiscal year. The HOPE Program is designed
to increase affordable homeownership opportunities for low and
moderate income first-time homebuyers. The maximum grant this
year is $1 million. The grants are awarded on a competitive basis
and the City of Lubbock's application is for $1 million.
The Housing Section has received two previous HOPE 3 grants.
The FY92 grant was for $1,000,000 and assisted thirty-three
first-time homebuyers and the FY93 grant was for $1,710,000 and
assisted 36 first time homebuyers. There is a match requirement
for this program. For the past two years the match requirement has
been 33 percent but has been reduced to 25 percent for FY95. The
match for the previous two years was 16 houses along the Indiana
right-of-way that were moved to other affordable housing
neighborhoods. The City Council is requested to consider
donating four additional units, (three acquired along the Indiana
right-of-way, and one donated by the State) for matching purposes.
The application includes three major components. These include
$421,536 to acquire 16 properties; $415,664 for the rehabilitation
of 20 properties; and $33,000 for the homebuyer closing costs.
With respect to property acquisition, the properties being
purchased are generally VA or FHA vacant repossessed houses.

The houses are sold for fair market value. The mortgage loans are
at 3 percent interest with a 20- to 30-year term. The funding for the
rehabilitation of the houses is designed to be a partial loan and a
no -interest deferred payment loan. Only low to moderate income
first-time homebuyers are eligible for a HOPE house and for the
rehabilitation assistance. The portion of the rehabilitation
assistance that will be a payback loan is based on a sliding scale of
total family income. In addition to qualifying based on income, a
HOME applicant is required to attend post Homeownership
Nurturing Classes which range in a variety of topics from family
finances to mortgage and foreclosure. A prospective applicant
must also have a reasonably good credit history and meet other
underwriting criteria. The HOPE program rules prescribe that
successful HOPE applicants shall not be charged more than 30
percent and not less than 20 percent of their total annual income for
housing, including both the mortgage payment and any portion of
rehabilitation loan they will have to pay back.
Often times the low to moderate income families participating
under this program do not have the cash available to set up escrow
accounts. Therefore, $33,000 for homebuyer closing costs has
been budgeted in the grant application.
The City's proposal is in cooperation with Lubbock Habitat for
Humanity, Inc. and the Community Housing Resource Board. In
order to satisfy the requirement of a non-profit participant, Habitat
for Humanity will administer advertising and conduct outreach
classes. The amount of this subcontract will be $10,000. The
Community Housing Resource Board will administer the post
homeownership counseling and training classes.
The City of Lubbock receives administrative funds with this
program in the amount of $100,000, or 10 percent of the total
budget.
The Housing Rehabilitation Staff recommended approval and
execution of the FY95 HOPE 3 Implementation Grant Application
and all related documents containing local total match funds of
