<br />
<br />A REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER RE:
<br />AND READ AS FOLLOWS:
<br />
<br />INSPECTION SERVICES FOR WEST SIDE SEWER PROJECT WAS SUBMITTED
<br />
<br />"IN CONNECTION WITH THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE WEST SIDE SEWER SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SEWAGE PUMP-
<br />ING STATION, IT WILL BE NECESSARY FOR THE CITY TO MAINTAIN CGNTINOUS AND COMPETENT ENGINEERING
<br />SUPERVISION OF THE PROJECT. .
<br />
<br />w

<br />
<br />I~
<br />
<br />WE WERE ABLE TO ARRANGE A WORK SCHEDULE IN OUR OWN.ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT DURING THE COURSE
<br />OF CONSTRUCTION THE LAST TWO YEARS. THE PRESENT,AND HE~VILY SCHEDULED VOLUME OF WORK IN THE
<br />CITY DURING TH~ SUMMER MONTHS WILL MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO FURNISH COMPETENT SUPERVISION
<br />OF THE WEST SIDE SEWER PROJECT FROM THE PERSONNEL OF THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT.
<br />
<br />~ ,: .
<br />
<br />~.ft~
<br />
<br />I HAVE TAKEN THIS MATTER UP WllH THE CONSULTING ENGINEERS IN CHARGE or THE PROJECT AND THEY
<br />HAVE ADVISED ME THAT COMPETENT ENGINEERING SUPERVISION OF THE ENTIRE PROJECT WOULD BE PROVIDED
<br />FOR A FEE OF 2~% OF THE ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION COSTS. BASED ON BID COSTS FOR THE ENTIRE PROJECT
<br />THIS WOULD REPRESENT A CHARGE OF $6200.00. OWING TO THE FACT THAT THE ENTIRE NEW WEST SIDE
<br />SEWER SYST~M WILL BE A PUMP LINE, I FEEL THAT THE NEED OF CAREFUL AND CONTINOUS ENGINEERING
<br />SUPERVISION AND INSP~CTION CANNOT BE OVER-EMPHASIZED, AND IT HAS BEEN MY OBSERVATION BASED ON
<br />PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WITH WORK OF THIS KINO, THAT THE COSTS OF PRO~ER AND COMPETENT INSPECTION
<br />WILL MORE THAN BE REPAID IN THE SAVINGS TO BE ACCOMPLISHED DURING THE COURSE OF CONSTRUCTION.
<br />
<br />IT IS HEREBY REQUESTED THAT THE COMMON COUNCIL GRANT AUT<HORITY TO THE CITY MANAGER AT THiS
<br />TIME, TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACT FOR SUPPLYING JOB SUPERVISION AS OUTLINED."
<br />
<br />IT WAS MOVED BY HAWN AND SECONDED BY CRUMBAKER THAT THE REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER BE RECEIVED
<br />AND PLACED ON FILE AND THAT THE RECOMMENDAT~'ON CONTAINED THEREIN BE ADOPTED. MOTION CARRIED.
<br />
<br />4. A REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER RE: PROHIBITING AND/OR CONTROLLING THE INSTALLATION OF ELECTRIC
<br />FENCES, WAS SUBMLTTED AND READ AS FOLLOWS:
<br />
<br />"MY ATTENTION HAS BEEN CALLED RECENTLY TO THE NEED OF ORDINANCES PROHIBITING AND/OR CON-
<br />TROLLING THE INSTALLATION OF ELECTRIC FENCES WITHIN THE CITY OF EUGENE. ONLY RECENTLY A FENCE OF
<br />THIS TYPE HAS BEEN ERECTED ADJACENT TO THE SWiMMING POOL PROPERTY.
<br />
<br />IN INVESTIGATING THIS MATTER, IT IS DISCOVERED THAT WE HAVE NO ORDINANCE REGULATING OR COVER-
<br />ING SUCH TYPES INSTALLATIONS. I FEEL CERTAIN THAT THE COUNCIL WILL AGREE, THAT THE PRESENCE OF AN
<br />ELECTRIC FENCE NEAR A SWIMMING POOL OR RECREATIONAL AREA PROVIDES A DEFINITE HAZARD TO CHILDREN WHO
<br />WILL BE USING SUCH AREAS, AND I RECOMMEND TO THE COUNCIL AT THIS TIME, THAT AUTHORIZATION BE GIVEN
<br />TO THE CITY ATTORNEY TO PREPARE AN ORDINANCE COVERING THIS MATTER."
<br />
<br />IT WAS MOVED BY BAILEY AND SECONDED BY HANNS THAT THE REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER BE RECEIVED
