Staff report by Lauren Wasserman. Mr. Wasserman said a group was in the audience who had requested to be heard before the City Council. Mr. Robinson had met with one of their representatives; therefore, the meeting was turned over to him who explained that the people were requesting that a foot bridge be installed over the Demens Creek to make a way for school children to get to Stork School without having to go onto Came]tan or Sapphire since they were considered to be dangerous streets during rainy seasons. City Council Minutes April 16, 1980 Page 5 Those addressing the Council in favor of the construction of the bridge were: Ray Logan Pam Henry, Alta Loma Riding Club Mayor Schlosser said that since this was a worthwhile project, but would only benefit a relatively few people, and since the city did not have the funds, he asked if they would be willing to have a special district formed to pay for the bridge. Mr. Logan said he felt that the city had the money. Bridge said he would like to start at the Federal level first to see what could be done since this was a federal project. Mr. Wasserman said they could con- tact Congressman Jim Lloyd. He said that a contact had been made with Super- visor McElwain who also said he would contact Congressman Jim Lloyd. Paul Rougeau, Associate Civil Engineer for the City, said another problem to consider was this would be in the middle of private property and who would take care of the bridge. This did pose serious liability problems. Council directed staff to pursue all avenues possible to resolve this problem and to report back. 60. Maintenance Management Consultin~ Services. Staff report by Lloyd Hubbs. (21] Staff was recommanding approval of a maintenance management contract with Roy Jorgensen and Associates to establish a maintenance management system which wculd include work repozting, standards, and field supervisoz's manual. Motion: Moved by Bridge, seconded by Frost to approve the contract and to appropriate $27,400 from the contingency account to finance the contract.

Bridge agreed, but felt we could make money by spending money in this case. Mikels felt the project could be done inhouse more economically.

Staff report by Lloyd Hubbs. In early 1979 the cities in western San Bernardino County agreed to provide common Federal Aid Urban funds to Ontario/Rancho Cucamonga for a Joint widening and signali- zation project on Vineyard from 4th Street to Arrow Route. The city engineers determined that the most efficient division of responsibilities would include the design and environmental portions being provided by Ontario and Rancho Cucamonga completing right-of-way and railroad negotiations. Current funding arrangements provide for 86% federal reimbursement except for right-of-way which is approxi- mately $30,000.
