262 (Measure M).Councilwoman Coontz asked about the special request of the church
to include repaving one block of Shaffer Street between Chapman and Almond Avenues
with an asphalt overlay as part of this bid, The church has requested this be included in this
year's budget in the amount
of$17,000.The Director of Public Works indicated this street would not
be scheduled for maintenance until 2004, The church is not happy with the looks of the
material used, but the Street Department uses the most cost-effective materials available,
The street will lose its greenish cast in time, The Public Works Department feels the
street rides well. The current work was done this summer. The Street Department
has a Pavement Management Program, There are other streets that are higher in priority for use of
the money, before a pavement strategy would be done
again on this segment Councilman Spurgeon asked how many other areas of the City have
this same type of material on the streets, This is the only segment which has this
material, according to the Public Works Director. It is a relatively new product, but has been used
by Cal Trans and other cities very successfully. Councilman Spurgeon does not feel it
rides well, or looks good aesthetically. He feels there is one street area that can wait
an additional year for maintenance. Mayor Beyer feels the street is slippery to walk
on, The Public Works Director indicated sand was
put in

2. CONSENT CALENDAR (Continued)
Councilwoman Coontz feels Council needs to know more about the pavement program,
the goals and ifthere are more plans to repair streets the same way as this area of Shaffer
Street. The Street Department Manager indicated repairing the street with substitute
products cost about three times as much. The cost to repair the street in this manner was
about $9,000, as compared to $19,000 for alternative methods. The Street Department
Manager felt it was a better alternative than using strips of asphalt and crack-
filling material. Councilman Steiner commented that the City is going to go bankrupt trying
to please
everyone,Mayor Beyer asked the City Attorney if he could vote on this matter, since he is a
member of St. John's Lutheran Church. The City Attorney felt it was appropriate, since he has
no financial interest in the
decision.MOTION - Spurgeon
