Councilmember Brown reported City staff are available to help with this matter and encouraged Mr. Moran to contact them. Vice Mayor Pentin closed public comments. PUBLIC HEARINGS AND OTHER MATTERS 15. Approve expansion of the Recycled Water Infrastructure project to construct a water pressure booster station at Ken Mercer Sports Park utilizing available California Clean Water State Revolving Funds and Proposition 1B Grant funds Adam Nelkie, Senior Civil Engineer, presented details of the staff report addressing background, description of a booster station, proposed booster station, why a booster station is needed, proposed location, alternative locations, expectations for the operation of the booster station, sound, comparative sound levels, designed sound reduction, what to expect during construction and recommendations. Councilmember Narum requested an explanation regarding the proposed location and Mr. Nelkie stated the location was chosen with consideration to hydraulics and the proposed location is a more efficient way to pump the station. Staff considered placing it on the north side of the Arroyo Mocho but it would have lowered efficiency. In response to Councilmember Olson's inquiry, Mr. Nelkie explained there is an air conditioning unit to protect the electrical system from overheating and that standard electrical cabling is used in the system. Councilmember Brown asked regarding sound generated by the air conditioning unit and Mr. Nelkie reported pumps generate the most noise versus the air conditioning unit and explained the process for measuring and monitoring sound. Additionally, he addressed the type of the proposed enclosure and reported recycled water has similar maintenance requirements than the rest of the City's potable water systems. Vice Mayor Pentin opened the public hearing. John Lange spoke in opposition to the proposed location noting the building is located too close to residential properties and would be an eyesore and air conditioning units and/or exhaust fans will be noisy and will be heard from nearby residences. Vice Mayor Pentin closed the public hearing. Discussion followed regarding location of the air conditioning unit, whether there is a more- attractive building option, the proposed type of fencing, the 10% contingency and the contingency plan relative to noise levels. MOTION: It was m/s by Olson/Pentin to authorize the Director of Engineering to approve and execute a contract change order to Ranger Pipelines, Inc. for approximately $425,000 to purchase a pre-packaged booster station from Patterson Pumps and approved the location of the Sports Park Booster Station at Location 2— Hard Ball Field C. Councilmember Brown offered a friendly amendment to consider making the building more visually attractive, that it be painted dark green and that landscaping be added.
