F.M. DELACH, CITY MANAGERAAg DATE: JUNE 14, 2010 SUBJECT: BI-WEEKLY STREET SWEEPING POSSIBLE COST SAVINGS At the City Council's FY 2010-2011 budget study session on June 1, 2010, the City Council requested information on possible cost savings associated with bi-weekly street sweeping. Currently, the City's streets are swept on a weekly basis. The current agreement with Athens for street sweeping is $19.68 per curb mile x 12,898 curb miles for a total annual cost of$253,843.36. Assuming the same cost per curb mile, it would be fair to assume we could save approximately $120,000 annually if we sweep half as much,bi-weekly opposed to weekly. While the funds currently used to pay for street sweeping are non-general funds (sewer funds), any savings realized through reduced street sweeping can be used towards salaries for the engineering division which is currently paid out of the general fund. Thus switching to bi-weekly street sweeping could save general fund monies. Should the City Council revert to bi-weekly street sweeping, staff would recommend maintaining the existing street parking restrictions. It would be impossible to properly sign streets so the restriction would be bi-weekly since some months have five weeks and others four. However, to avoid this parking dilemma, streets could be swept on the first and third or second and fourth days of the week. Then staff could modify the signs to restrict parking to those specific weeks. This option would reduce the number of weeks streets are swept from 26 to 24. The current street sweeping contract can be amended/modified if both parties agree to such amendment/modification. In addition, the contract can be terminated by the City, with or without cause by giving written notice to the Contractor providing at least seven days notification. The existing contract expires on February 28, 2011. ky: a- y i'. r f!'' ,"- r xx''C'',us'``•e .,g, I (71111, ,,,, * * $ - . - us, TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: F.M. DELACH, CITY MANAGER/ b DATE: JUNE 14, 2010 SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF AZUSA CHAMBER OF COMMERCE'S REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council consider the Azusa Chamber of Commerce's request for funding for fiscal year 2010/11. BACKGROUND Staff received a request/appeal(attached)from Irene Villapania,Executive Director Azusa Chamber of Commerce, for Council to consider restoration of funding to a 5% reduction from last year's $88,200 rather than the 20%indicated in the"contract"and placed in the Preliminary Budget. Their request is for$83, 700 rather than the$70,560 indicated in the Preliminary Budget document. The attached letter was received May 31, was overlooked due to the Memorial Day holiday and not presented at the Budget Study Session on June 1. Funding for the Chamber would be from the Light and Water Department(L&W)budget and from the Azusa Redevelopment Agency's (Agency) budget. For this current fiscal year the Chamber received$52,200 from L&W and$36,000 from the Agency. Staff would allocate funds in a similar ratio if the Council approves this request. FISCAL IMPACT $49,200 from L&W and $34,500 from the Agency \ Board of Directors A Z T v T C A 2009-2010 J Executive Committee CHAMBER O F COMMERCE Chairman of the Board Anthony Glassman California Amforge Corp. 1st Vice Chairwoman Mary McKenrick Athens Services May 28, 2010 2nd Vice Chairman Dan Bacani Fran Delach NAI Capital Commercial City Manager Treasurer City of Azusa Jayne Foote 213 E. Foothill Blvd Veolia Environmental Services AZUsa, CA 91702 Cite Representative Paul Reid Dear Fran, Azusa Light& Water Past Chairwoman On behalf of the Azusa Chamber of Commerce it is imperative that the City Council of Mercedes Castro Azusa, consider the approval of our request for the 2010-2011 funding of the Azusa Proforma Quality Printing Chamber for support at a 5% reduction from last year's funding of $88,200.00 to Chief Executive Officer $83,790.00. Due to the current challenging economy today, a reduction in the city's Irene C. Villapania support would require us to cut or eliminate some of our benefits to our members. The Board of Directors result would be detrimental to the Chamber's reputation as we have made consistent Ria Benbow improvements in membership growth and overall effectiveness in supporting the Azusa Azusa Adult School business community. Every effort is being made to control our expenses and create Steve Castro Eagle Photography new sources of revenue. Ruben Cesena RCS Heating&Air Conditioning Our Strategic Planning Committee is working diligently to present a P/an of Action to Bob crus become self-sufficient, which will be presented to you and the City Council upon So.Cal.

We will Angela Driscoll gladly submit a preliminary report, again upon completion of the Strategic Planning Vulcan Materials Company, Western Division Committee and approval of the Board of Directors.
