OFFICE of the CITY MANAGER October 12 OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER October 12, 2018 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager A T SUBJECT: General Information This past week our community said farewell to a fierce and dedicated public servant. Pat DeMond served as the Ward 2 Councilmember and Vice Mayor from 1987 to 2000. Among her notable contributions to our City and downtown revitalization include approval of the Chester Avenue streetscape, the Centennial Garden (now Rabobank) arena, the Holiday Inn Select (now Marriot) hotel, and the Amtrak station. In addition to her forward-thinking voting record, Councilmember DeMond was instrumental in the formation of the Old Town Kern-Pioneer Redevelopment area and played a key role in the merging of the State's two enterprise zone programs into one unified program before it was disbanded; a feat that had failed several times before. Outside of public office, Councilmember DeMond dedicated her talents to local organizations and charitable events. Our deepest condolences go to her husband and family. Pat’s determined spirit and service to the City of Bakersfield is remembered kindly by all who knew her. Notable Items Our office was notified this morning that the Downtown Business Association has taken a phone poll of its members and has agreed to support Measure N. The current Measure N endorsements include the Greater Bakersfield Chamber of Commerce, Kern County Taxpayers Association, Bakersfield Association of Realtor, the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, North of the River Chamber of Commerce, and the Kern County Homebuilders Association. General Information October 12, 2018 Page 2 City staff and Bakersfield Marathon organizers continue to meet to coordinate plans for the upcoming event. The 2018 Bakersfield Marathon is scheduled to take place on Sunday, November 18th. The route will be similar to last year, with up to 2,500 runners starting at 7 a.m. at Cal State Bakersfield, running through the City to Bakersfield College and returning to Cal State on the Kern River Parkway. As done in previous years, the organizers will send notices directly to affected residences and businesses prior to the race date. Roads will reopen as runners complete each section of the route. We will pass along more specific street closure information via Gen Info and social media in the coming weeks. Thanks to City staff for their work on coordinating this event! The first floor of the parking garage will look a bit different after this weekend. In response to input received from the community meeting on the Downtown Bakersfield Parking Study, one row, or 7 stalls, on the first floor of the parking garage and 1 stall on the second floor turn will be removed. The removal of these stalls will open a wider lane for traffic and make it easier and safer to enter and exit the parking garage. The first floor stalls on the south side of the lane and the first floor handicap stalls will not be affected. The first floor stalls are currently roped off in anticipation of the work to be completed tomorrow, Saturday, the 13th. The work will be completed within 1 day. Please see the attached press release regarding the beginning of the annual leaf collection program, starting Monday, October 15th through approximately the first week of February 2019. On Wednesday, October 31st, 2018, the Bakersfield Police Department will be hosting our first “Trick or Treat Meet and Greet”. The event will take place at police headquarters at 1601 Truxtun Avenue from 3:00 PM – 5:00 PM. The event is free to attend. Children under the age of 12, in costumes, will be escorted around the police building for trick or treating from various police personnel, as well as visit police vehicles in the parking lot. Groups will be escorted every 10-15 minutes through the building. Parents and caregivers are welcome to come; however, for safety purposes, only children may wear costumes at this event. Children must also be 12 years of age or General Information October 12, 2018 Page 3 younger to participate. Parking is available in the City of Bakersfield’s parking garage at 18th Street and Eye Street. Parking is free for 2 hours. Registration is not required for the event.

Traffic Advisory Saturday Closure for Westbound Truxtun Avenue Nighttime Lane Closures Tuesday through Thursday Westbound Truxtun Avenue will be closed tomorrow, October 13, in the area between the Westside Parkway on-ramp and off-ramp. The contractor for the Kern River Bridge Improvements Project will be placing concrete for the new bridge abutment. The concrete pour is expected to be underway between the hours of 4 a.m. and 6 p.m. The inside eastbound lane will also be closed in the area, but two eastbound lanes are expected to remain open. The freeway on- and off-ramps will also remain open. Westbound Truxtun Avenue motorists can detour around Saturday’s closures by traveling south on Oak Street to California Avenue; west to Mohawk Street; then north to Truxtun Avenue. Detour signs will be in place to direct traffic. Motorists can also use Rosedale Highway. These same closures are also scheduled to be in effect Tuesday, October 16 through Thursday, October 18, between the hours of 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. each night. The nighttime closures are needed to remove the forms from the abutment. All lanes are expected to open in time for the morning commute. Upcoming Closures Wible Road, Belle Terrace Bridge and Northbound SR 99 Wible Road Off-ramp Construction crews will demolish the Wible Road median and resurface the underlying roadway, between State Route 58 and Belle Terrace, Wednesday, October 17 through Friday, October 26. This work will require closures of the inside traffic lanes, leaving only one lane open to traffic in each direction. The signal at the Belle Terrace and Wible Road intersection will be set to flashing red during this work. Motorists are encouraged to use alternate routes or allow sufficient time to reach their destinations if they must travel in the vicinity of Belle Terrace and Wible Road. Following the median work, traffic will be shifted to the west side of Wible Road, with only one lane available to traffic in each direction. This traffic shift is expected to occur on Friday, October 26. The date of the Belle Terrace Bridge closure has been changed to October 26 to coincide with the traffic shift. The project will demolish the existing bridge and replace it General Information October 12, 2018 Page 4 with a bridge that meets current Caltrans standards. Ming Avenue or Stockdale Highway can be used to cross the freeway until the bridge re-opens in spring 2020. The State Route 99 Wible Road off-ramp is expected to close in mid-November. The closure of this off-ramp will be permanent. Following this off-ramp closure, northbound motorists will need to exit the freeway at the Ming Avenue or California Avenue interchanges. Nighttime Lane and Ramp Closures on State Route 58 and State Route 99 Work continues on the Beltway Operational Improvements project, requiring lane and ramp closures within the project areas on State Route 58 and State Route 99.

    2.4 PARKS AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT DRAFT EXISTING CONDITIONS, CONSTRAINTS AND OPPORTUNITIES REPORT 2.4 PARKS AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT The Parks and Open Space Element details how open space, recreational areas and natural resource areas will be preserved and managed. 2.4.1 EXISTING CONDITIONS The 2002 Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan addresses Parks and Open Space in two separate elements. It is proposed that these two elements be combined under one comprehensive Parks and Open Space Element as part of the General Plan Update. Therefore, the following is a brief overview of both the Parks and Open space elements of the 2002 Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan. Parks Parks are generally categorized as either “local” or “regional” in the 2002 Metropolitan Bakersfield General Plan. Local parks generally range from 1 to 2.5 acres for mini-parks, 5- 10 acres for neighborhood parks, and approximately 30 acres for community parks. Regional parks, on the other hand, can range anywhere from 20 to 1,000 acres and may serve a population living within a one–hour drive (about 50 miles). Historically, park facilities in the planning area have been provided by the City of Bakersfield, Kern County, the North of the River Recreation and Park District (NORRPD), Bear Mountain Recreation and Park District, school districts, colleges, and, most recently, private developers. Regional parks have been the responsibility of Kern County. The City of Bakersfield and Kern County operate regional, community and neighborhood parks and trails, along with community centers and other recreational facilities. The park system under the jurisdiction of the City of Bakersfield includes more than 50 parks, recreation facilities and trails such as the Kern River Parkway (see Figure 2.4.1-1 Existing Parks in Metropolitan Bakersfield, below, and Table 2.4.1-1 Existing Parks in Metropolitan Bakersfield, located at the end of this chapter, for a listing of all parks in the Metropolitan Bakersfield area).

    OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER November 15, 2019 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager AT / CH SUBJECT: General Information Notable Items Staff continues to work on finding a suitable location for a low-barrier homeless shelter in Bakersfield. To that end, several City Staff members – including Assistant City Managers Jacqui Kitchen and Chris Huot, Public Works Director Nick Fidler, and Community Development Coordinator Nina Carter – this week visited 40 Prado, a shelter facility in San Luis Obispo that Staff has drawn inspiration from. City Staff, along with members from Kern County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services met with 40 Prado’s Deputy Director Grace McIntosh to discuss operations of such a General Information November 15, 2019 Page 2 facility. McIntosh showed Staff how clients are processed when they come to the 100-bed facility, the dormitory areas, where and how some on-site health care services are provided, as well as a green space, a kennel and a kitchen. McIntosh also explained ways the facility has become part of the neighborhood in a positive way, even offering its campus to host various services for the community at times. It was a very educational visit and will help as Staff continues researching what operating a low-barrier shelter in Bakersfield will require. The recognition of the City’s Water Resources Department continues as the department has won yet another award for its 1,2,3-Trichlorpropane (TCP) mitigation project, this time from the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC). The project won a Merit Award in the ACEC’s 2020 Engineering Excellence Award competition.

    OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER July 16, 2021 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Christian Clegg, City Manager CC / CH SUBJECT: General Information Notable Items This week Bakersfield Fire Department deployed firefighters to respond to the River Fire in Mariposa County (top right). One of 212 engines assigned to the River Fire, Bakersfield Fire’s OES 412 (bottom right) was deployed on July 11 and is tasked with protecting homes in the area. As of July 14, the fire had burned 9,500 acres and was 28% contained. Firefighters continue to aggressively attack the fire even as dangerous heat persists. Low humidity, tree torching, wind- driven runs and frequent spot fires continue to challenge firefighters involved in containing the River Fire. Bakersfield firefighters can be expected to be committed to this incident for as many as two weeks. Crews from the Recreation & Parks Department are completing Top: The River Fire in Mariposoa County; bottom: some repairs at the east lake at Bakersfield Fire’s OES 412 crew made up of (left to The Park at River Walk this week, right) Capt. Scott Drake, Engineer Lance Osborne, and requiring them to lower the water Firefighters Sean Rogers and Jorge Godinez. General Information July 16, 2021 Page 2 level there. The lake will be returned to its normal level once the repairs are completed, using canal water that was released further downstream and rediverted back, resulting in no net loss of water. It’s expected to take two weeks before repairs are completed. The City continues to grow.
