WELCOME!
You are now participating in the process of representative government. We
welcome your interest and hope you and your friends will often attend Phoenix
City Council meetings. Democracy cannot endure without an informed
electorate. Phoenix utilizes a Council-Manager form of local government.
Policy is set by the Mayor and Council who are elected by the people, and
carried out by the City Manager, who is appointed by the Council. The Council
Mayor Phil Gordon decides what is to be done and the City Manager, operating through the entire
City staff, does it. This separation of policy-making and policy administration is
Vice Mayor considered the most economical and efficient form of city government.

important decisions reached after very little discussion. Actually, Council
District 3 members receive the agenda the Friday prior to the meeting. They have the
Bill Gates opportunity to study every item on the agenda over the weekend and ask
questions of City staff members. If no additional facts are presented at the

4. That the following Street Transportation Department conditions shall

9. That the above stipulations shall be completed within six years of the
Abandonment Hearing Officer’s decision dated July 7, 2010.
Staff Recommendation
Staff is neutral on the question of whether or not the right-of-way is abandoned.
In regards to the consideration fee, the abandonment of right-of-way to private
property owners is the transfer of an asset and, as such, a consideration fee is
prescribed by the City Code, Article 5, Section 31-64 and Ordinance G-5332.
Transfer without consideration could constitute a violation of the gift clause of the
Arizona State Constitution, Article IX, Section 7.
12/15/2010 - 40 -
If the City Council decides to abandon the right-of-way, then staff urges the
imposition of a fee or other consideration that reflects the fair market value of the
property.
If the Council moves to change the consideration fee that is set per ordinance,
the new fee will be set as the stipulation.
This item is recommended by Mr. Krietor and the Planning and Development
Services Department.
Request to amend Chapter 2, Article XXIX of the Phoenix City Code to expand

funds.
12/15/2010 - 74 -
Bliksem Properties, LLC is the owner of the historic Swindall Tourist Inn and has
submitted a Demonstration Project Grant application requesting funds to
rehabilitate the property. The property is listed on the Phoenix Historic Property
Register and the National Register of Historic Places for its role in
accommodating African American visitors to Phoenix prior to the Civil Rights Act
of 1964. The Historic Preservation Bond funds will be used to perform structural
work necessary to prepare the first and second floors of the vacant historic
building for occupancy. Although historically used as a residence and African
American boarding house, the approximately 2,690-square-foot building will be
adaptively reused for professional offices.
Employment Impact
The rehabilitation project is expected to employ between 15 and 20 persons.
Financial Impact
This project will use up to $37,996 in available 2006 Historic Preservation Bond
funds. The total cost of the grant-eligible work items, including eligible
architectural and engineering expenses, is $75,991. The City’s share of the
grant-eligible costs will be half, or $37,996. The owner will invest at least an
additional $117,025 to cover ineligible work items, including plumbing, electrical,
mechanical, interior, and site work. According to grant program guidelines, the
city will receive a 20-year conservation easement on the historic building in
exchange for grant funding.
Concurrence
The Historic Preservation Commission recommended approval of this grant
request on October 18, 2010. The City Council Housing and Neighborhoods
Subcommittee was scheduled to review this item on November 10, 2010, but
made no recommendation due to the lack of a quorum.

The Glock .40 Caliber, Model 22, Serial Number CNB221, will be sold to Tiffany
Cortez for one dollar, in accordance with Memorandum of Understanding 2010-
2012, Section 5-6J.
In August 2010, the City Council authorized the award of a contract to Adventos
to provide programming and technical support to various in-house designed
applications for the Police Department. The original contract amount was for
$700,000. Amendment 1 will add an additional $60,000 for additional
programming and technical support, for a total amount of $760,000.
Amendment 1 will also add additional items to the scope of work. The additional

Information Technology Analyst/Programmers. All other terms and conditions of
the contract will remain in effect.
Financial Impact
Funding is available in 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA)
Justice Assistance Grant funds for Police software upgrades.
Adventos, LLC is eligible to do business with the City of Phoenix until April 16,
2012, by its compliance with the affirmative action requirements of the City Code,
Chapter 18, Article IV. The firm is responsible for maintaining its eligibility during
the life of the contract and failure to do so may result in termination of the
contract.
12/15/2010 - 76 -
A condition of the use of ARRA funding indicates that businesses cannot be on
the Federal Government’s Excluded Parties List. Staff has confirmed that
Adventos is eligible to do business with the Federal Government.
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a five-year
agreement with ACS Transport Solutions, a Xerox Company, for an upgrade to
the current regional Vehicle Management System (VMS) at an estimated total
cost of $2,573,028; and authorizing the City Controller to disburse funds in
accordance therewith.
The City Council originally approved the purchase of the region-wide VMS on
February 6, 2002, after a competitive procurement process. Due to the
proprietary nature of the software, per Administrative Regulation 3.10, the Public
Transit Director has recommended an exception to the selection process.
Public Transit requests authority to negotiate and enter into a contract with ACS
for an upgrade of the proprietary software for the VMS application to the most
current version and professional services necessary to support the application.
The agreement will commence on January 1, 2011. The proprietary software is
past its normal life cycle. Further, to meet a federal mandate, the region-wide
transit voice communication system is in the process of being moved to the
Regional Wireless Cooperative (RWC) 700/800 MHz system and this upgrade is
needed to facilitate that change by the December 31, 2012, federal deadline. If
this software upgrade and the related region-wide transit communication system
project are not completed by the deadline, it is anticipated that voice
communication with bus and light rail vehicles will be lost.
Employment Impact
It is estimated that this contract will create 28.5 private sector jobs.

This item is recommended by Ms. Morris and the Public Transit Department.
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into a Credit
purchase agreement with Arizona Public Service (APS) related to the APS
Renewable Energy Incentive Program (Incentive Program). Under the Incentive
Program, APS will agree to purchase energy produced by photovoltaic system
installed on City properties and to provide incentives to the City to install such
photovoltaic systems.
As part of the Incentive Program, APS requires participants to enter into a formal
agreement. The City requested changes to a number of terms and conditions in
the agreement but all City requested changes were rejected by APS. Therefore,
to participate in this program and receive the benefit of the Incentive Program,
APS requires the following material items:
1. APS will be entitled to damages if the City cannot deliver Renewable Energy
credits associated with the energy produced by the System.
2. APS will pay a fixed price for energy for the entire term of the agreement
instead of a rate adjusted by the Consumer Price Index as requested by the
City.
3. APS requires a limit on APS’s liability and the City’s ability to recover
damages against APS for a breach by APS including, but not limited to,
consequential damages. Pursuant to Phoenix City Code Sections 42-13 and
42-15, APS specifically requests Council to expressly waive these legal rights
and interests.
12/15/2010 - 78 -
The City will realize a financial benefit from the utility based on the Incentive
Program (production based incentives, $/kWh), which typically represents a
discount of 20 - 30 percent of the cost of energy which is produced by the solar
photovoltaic system. The utility incentive will allow the City to purchase the
green energy produced by the solar system at a lower cost compared to the
current utility cost ($/kWh). Conversely, without the utility incentives, the cost for
green energy will likely be higher than current utility costs.
The subject firm is eligible to do business with the City of Phoenix until
August 18, 2011, by its compliance with the affirmative action requirements of the
City Code, Chapter 18, Article IV or V. The firm is responsible for maintaining its
eligibility during the life of the contract and failure to do so may result in
termination of the agreement.

bonds by the Authority up to $30,000,000 under an allocation of Recovery Zone
Facility Volume Cap (RZFB Volume Cap) from the Arizona Department of
Commerce (the Department), which bonds were subsequently issued on
January 1, 2010. As a result of a lottery for reallocation of RZFB Volume Cap

Arizona cities and counties, the Applicant was recently awarded additional
allocations of RZFB Volume Cap to finance a portion of the costs of the Project.
The Bonds will not involve the credit or financial backing of the City of Phoenix.

There are no proposed increases to wastewater rates or the water fixed monthly
service charges. The proposed increase in water revenues will be applied to the
water volume charges and the environmental charge. The seasonal volume
charges are proposed to increase by $0.26 per hundred cubic foot (ccf) and the
environmental charge by $0.02 per ccf. One ccf is equal to 748 gallons. The
service charge includes 6 ccf of water in the October through May period and
10 ccf in the June through September period. This would translate into an
average water/wastewater bill increase of $2.21 for a typical single-family
customer. Depending upon the actual amount of consumption, some customers
may pay more or less than this average.
Information detailing the proposed increases to the water rates, Financial Plans,
and the Five-Year Water Capital Improvement Program are available to the
public in the City of Phoenix, City Clerk Department located at 200 West
Washington Street, 15th Floor during normal business hours. Additional
