A copy of the Agreement is filed with Resolution No. 2000-R0128.
In 1997, the City hired OTM Engineering to assist in the creation of a
Communications Master Plan. This is the first phase implementation of
that Plan. Funds for technology enhancements were allocated from the
franchise agreement between the City and Cox Cable. There was
extensive research to discover the best method of using these funds to
strategically position the City to be ready to implement the technology
staff can expect in the future.
SONET will use the City's existing fiber optic infrastructure to its
Optimum. In the past, the City has used fiber optics point-to-point.
SONET will provide enormous bandwidth for the future of voice, data
and video. This network will impact the City's basic communication
structure, including public safety; therefore, it must be highly reliable
with contingency options available.
With OTM's assistance, a process was undertaken to determine the key
requirements. Because of the criticality of the network, it was
determined that any successful vendor must have a local presence for
maintenance and support. Southwestern Bell Telephone proposed a
Nortel configuration. This equipment is highly reliable and is used in
many of the phone companies' central offices.
The cost for this phase of the Communications Master Plan
implementation is $202,812.17. This will connect the hub at Municipal
Square with the new Fire Administration complex and back up EOC.
Creating the hub of the SONET ring will provide the jumping off point
for future conversions from point-to-point fiber optics to SONET.
The staff recommended approval of this sales and maintenance contract
with Southwestern Bell Telephone for the first phase implementation of the Communication Master Plan. of the
�18•) Resolution No. 2000-R0132 authorizing the Mayor to execute an
agreement with the Lubbock Arts Alliance to administer the art
grant program.

A copy of the Agreement is filed with Resolution No. 2000-R0132.
For the past 20 years, the Lubbock City Council has partnered with the

5.71429% of the total hotel/motel tax collected during the fiscal year
ended September 30, 1999. The agreement provides that a joint review
committee, represented by the Lubbock Arts Alliance, Inc. and
appointments by the Lubbock City Council, evaluate applications from
community arts organizations for the art grants. The grants review
committee then makes recommendations to the City Council for
awarding of the grant funds. Upon approval by the Lubbock City
