' REPORTS, UPDATES, COUNCIL BUSINESS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS -STAFF Rprts/ Colby Fire After Action Report by Assistant Fire Chief Steve Martin Los Angeles County (L.A. Co.). Updates Assistant Fire Chief Steve Martin addressed the Council introducing his staff that were present at the meeting, stating that they were part of the team who assisted with the Colby Fire; the Fire Department Chief Martin was not alone in controlling the fire, they worked in unified command with multiple agencies, Colby Fire including the Azusa Police Department; he gave credit to those who worked behind the scenes and Report residents who cooperated and prepared their homes for these type of situations; he read a statement from the Fire Department to the City of Azusa (copy enclosed herewith) addressing the Colby Fire. He gave a report of how the fire was handled, stating that because of Azusa's location by the canyon and mountains, it faces ecological challenges caused by fires; the August 1968, Stable Fire, started above the canyon, and moved towards Glendora, it ended up burning the same area as the Colby Fire, 04/07/2014 PAGE TWO except that the Colby Fire started in Glendora and moved to Azusa; fire fighting resources and how they were deployed was done differently; a memorial cross sits on top of the mountain as a reminder that 8 fire fighters lost their lives; as a result of that tragedy, the way wild life fires are fought was re- shaped, and fire fighters now have a high respect for these mountains after knowing what can happen; fire fighters have been working on a different approach based on past experiences with these mountains, the shape and what it contains, what resources can be available, and new technology; on January 16, 2014, the plan that was in place, was put to practice; all resources were available to fight the Colby Fire, as there were no other wild fires in Southern California at that time; a command post manned by the U.S. Forest Service was set up; there was a two prong approach to the fire, but the mission was to keep anyone from losing their lives or being injured, and avoid property loss; 27 agencies and 4 levels of government participated, within the first few hours there were 2,000 service personnel available manning the fire engines, patrols, aircraft, bulldozers and hand crew; the fire - originated east of Glendora, by the Colby Trail, hence the name Colby Fire, and moved quickly into the backyards of homes; it was a 2,000 acre fire that extended within the first 6 hours, and 5 structures were lost in Glendora within the first two hours; before the needed resources arrived, it was guesstimated that at least 200 homes would bum; he depicted a map (enclosed herewith) outlining the area that was burnt and how it moved west to Azusa. A Fire is 100% contained once there is a complete line around that fire that takes the burnt fuel away from the un -burnt fuel; the south side of the fire was put out by the evening of the 16th, allowing fire fighters to work on the lines; access through the front was done with bulldozers, fire engines, and by hand crews who worked with tools to create that line along the homes; helicopters do not put out fires, but can slow it down to allow fire fighters to follow on foot and contain it; there were concerns that if the fire was to reach Highway 39, it would move into the communities of Bradbury, Duarte, Monrovia, and potentially reaching Pasadena; the 1968 Stable Fire moved to those cities and burnt 77 homes in Bradbury and damaged 200 in both Bradbury and Duarte. Air operations: water bomber planes flew 203 hours, dropped 62,783 gallons of retardant and 571,850 gallons of water; retardant is used to stop the fire from going into the forest, but in this fire it was dropped behind homes, this operation is rarely done as it posses great risks for the pilots, but they did that in order to save the homes; the fire moved west to the canyon, where there is a different mountain scope made of cliffs of solid rock; the aircrafts were able to stop the fire at the top of the mountain just before it reached to Highway 39; in that area brush has intermixed and grown on the sides, which rolled down the cliffs as they caught on fire, creating severe burning conditions; efforts were made to try to reach the top of the fire by aircraft, and on foot carrying water hoses uphill; fire fighters that were climbing up the hill faced great danger from rolling boulders, it was decided to withdraw from the foot operation in that area, and only -one fire fighter was injured in Azusa; above Ridge View Dr. and adjacent to the water treatment plant, which was being monitored due to its importance, bulldozers or hand crews could not access the steep mountains; aircraft could not continue to drop water as it does not penetrate this type of brush that continues to bum inside for up to several weeks, as it was evident the day prior to the recent storm a fire started under some of that same brush; in addition the weight of the water could create movement of rocks and mudslides endangering homes below as well as wiping out the road; the only option was to let the hill burn for the safety of the firemen and all those below; as part of the Burnt Area Emergency Response (BAER) Team, consisting of The L. A. County Fire and the Forestry Division, an assessment of the area was conducted to help give the homeowners information about the hillside; inevitably the next few rains will cause mudslides, and efforts will be made to minimize and mitigate the impact; the rain will also help the mountain restore itself with new growth, which will make it stronger and better; many portions of the Garcia Trail were wiped out, it was for the best interest of the public's safety not to allow hiking in that area at this time. Financial effects: the cost to the L. A. Co. Fire Department to fight the Colby Fire was approximately $7,000,000; the Fire Department will continue to respond to residents needs on any emergency that may arise; the Fire Department considers the Colby Fire to be one of its most successful missions from previous fires in recent memory considering that that there were, no lives or homes lost in Azusa, it is the Department's priority to take care of citizens, emergency personnel, and protect homes as best possible; The L.A. Co. Fire Department proudly serves its residents. Councilmember Carrillo thanked Assistant Chief Martin for giving the presentation for the residents, as Council's it is a valuable message that needed to get to the community; he also thanked him, and the teams Comments 'involved, in preventing lives and homes being lost; Mayor Rocha also thanked the Fire Chief for his efforts in saving his home as well as his neighbors' homes. Update on Rosedale Parkine Ordinance Program. Public Works Director/Assistant City Manager Haes addressed the item to give an overview/status of a parking ordinance for the Rosedale neighborhood that staff is putting together; he stated that this ordinance is a draft and was intended for presentation purposes so that the public know what may be anticipated once it is presented to Council for consideration; the intent of the parking ordinance was to mitigate the parking issues caused by the Garcia Trail, and its unanticipated popularity that grew during the past few years, creating an impact to residents; during good weather, there have been 100 or so vehicles parked in that area; Council requested to set up measures to mitigate the impacts; proposed in the ordinance: parking would be restricted to permit parking to 4 hours a day, 7 days a week, the program would be administered by the Home Owners Association (HOA), enforcement would be 04/07/2014 PAGE THREE T. Haes Update Rosedale Parking Ordinance handled by the Azusa Police Department, annual permits would be issued up to two per resident with additional 5 for guests; restricted parking will include: MacNeal Street, Crape Mork Drive, Griffith Street and Phelps Ridge Way; parking at the two parks adjacent to the area would be open and available for parking; Juniper Ridge and McKeller Court north of Sierra Madre, will also be added to the restrictions, they are currently being developed and are expected to be done in 2 years; once the hillside stabilizes, the Garcia Trail will be re-evaluated, and determined if it can be re -opened for public use, the ordinance will come before Council for its consideration; the Azusa Police and Public Works Departments would do a 6 month study on its effectiveness and make changes if needed; violations and fees associated with this ordinance would go to the Police Department to pay for its enforcement. Councilmember Macias stated that currently the Garcia Trail is out of use and the impact on the U. Macias parking cannot be perceived, but during good weather multiple cars are visible on both sides of the Comments 'streets; doing nothing to resolve this problem is not an option, after the 6 month evaluation, a long term solution similar to the Fish Canyon Trail can be studied, to alleviate some of the congestion.

SCHEDULED ITEMS 'REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP) FOR AZUSA TRANSIT OPERATIONS AND FLEET MAINTENANCE SERVICES. Public Works Director/Assistant City Manager Haes addressed the item stating that the RFP for Azusa Transit is intended to seek bids to find out the cost to contract the transportation service; the RFP's would be analyzed, the groups would be interviewed, Council can select a subcommittee to vet the Consultants to ensure that they provide good service; the 3 full time employees in the Transportation Department would continue to be City of Azusa Employees with their current benefits, and would continue to be supervised in the current manner; part-time employees would be offered jobs by the company as part of the RFP, and it would be up to the employee to accept the offer; this RFP would not change any current services, the residents would not notice changes; an effort would be made to keep the same call number to set up appointments, and the same bus would pick them up as they would be using City buses; it would be up to the company to continue using the same drivers, if the drivers choose to take the position with the contractor; the current service has been in operation since 1978, 04/07/2014 PAGE FOUR J. Rocha Comments Sched Items RFP Azusa Transit & Fleet Operations things have changed since then and the industry has become more specialized; most of the neighboring cities that operate dial a ride' or curb -to -curb service, contract with private entities that specialize in that field; claims to the City regarding transportation issues have become more common and the liability would go to the contractor; staff is looking to save money, specialized service and do away with the liability risk associated with operating a transit; he addressed statements made during public participation: Azusa Transit is designed for Seniors and Disabled to use within City boundaries, medical trips or shopping opportunities that are not available in Azusa, staff does recommend in the staff report to use Foothill Transit as it serves regionally and it is less expensive than using the City's transportation, Azusa Transit is not' -a money making operation, but it does cost money to operate and the goal is to keep these services available for those who need it locally; the City has not contracted Transportation services in the past. Councilmember Macias requested to include on the RFP analysis: statistics on travel time, locations U. Macias and travel frequencies and to include Saturday services on the RFP; and in addition to do a study on the Questions factors considered to contract for other services i.e. the Fire Department and Police Department vehicle maintenance. Staff responded to questions posed by Mayor Rocha: scope of services will be included in the analysis to remain at .50 cents for all rides within designated boundaries of Azusa, Covina, Duarte and Glendora, and $1.50 to Monrovia, Baldwin Park, San Dimas and West Covina; the contractor will be required to offer employment to all qualified part-time drivers and dispatchers that are employed with the City of Azusa, if a City staff member is not qualified or exhibits performance of interpersonal deficiencies, a recommendation for a refusal to hire or termination of the employee explaining why that individual could not perform the job for the contractor would need to be provided to the Public Works Director; the City can facilitate vehicles to the contractor and they would remain City property but maintained and operated by the contractor; the contractor has the option to use the City's facilities to wash the buses and a fee can be charged to them, staff feels that it is in the best interest of the City for the buses to be in good shape aesthetically and mechanically; the space being offered to the contractor for its use as a dispatch center, including existing office furniture, is meant to possibly get a better price, and does not fall under the category of gift of public funds as it is meant to be used to service the public; it would be cheaper for the City to provide its own gas as the contractor adds gas charges to the administrative charges. City Manager Makshanoff stated that the purpose of the RFP is not to eliminate or reduce services, but to find out if the cost to provide this service can be reduced, and use those savings for other programs, this RFP was prepared by reviewing other cities' proposals, most of the information is standard of those samples and can be tailored to meet the City's needs, the goal is to try and save 25% to 30% of the current transit service cost. Staff responded to questions posed by Councilmember Alvarez: the reason why other cities are saving, is due to one contractor serving several cities with one dispatch center, and Cities not dealing with liability issues; the City does not have experts, the most senior operations personnel have retired and with them they took a lot of institutional knowledge; currently contractors provide transportation consulting services, but a full-time transit supervisor has not been hired; it would be to Council's discretion to hire a consultant to assist with the program; the RFP would eliminate liability that would still remain with the City should a consultant be hired. Councilmember Carrillo stated that staff has presented this item before, and there have been concerns from Council on the subject, which may be due to the uncertainty in making changes; those concerns may be cleared once the RFPs have been studied; this operation has been in service since 1978, and it would be beneficial to do a study to see if the services can be improved at cost savings and it is not meant to take services away; based on current revenues and current status, the program can possibly be in jeopardy; as stated on Section 1.2.5 of the RFP, the City reserves the right to negotiate all elements that comprise the proposal to ensure the best possible consideration for all concerned; he thanked staff for bringing this forward. Moved by Councilmember Macias, seconded by Councilmember Carrillo, to authorize staff to formally solicit a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the contractual outsourcing of Azusa Transit operations and fleet maintenance services, to provide the City Council at a later date with further analysis and potential 'cost savings, the RFP includes the retention of full-time staff as City Employees, by the following vote of the Council: YES: COUNCILMEMBERS: GONZALES, CARRILLO, MACIAS, ROCHA NOES: COUNCILMEMBERS: ALVAREZ J.
