away. She believed there will be some talented furns who will be excited about this project and this will be a win/win situation. Mr. Brozosky felt the lead needs to be on science and hydrology for the project and not landscaping. Mr. Wolfe felt it was important for Council to know that Wolfe Mason is a qualified firm. Staff began this project as any other. He commented there are people in the community who do not share the same vision as the Friends of Kottinger Creek. The reason staffchose the process it used was so everyone could give input on how they wanted to see the creek dealt with because it is a community park. Staff has no problem with Council setting the focus, but the problem has been that staff was trying to set a process where the entire community can speak to the issue of what the ereek should look like. That is where the staff straggle has been. He reiterated his desire that Council realize Wolfe Mason is a quality finn. It was the unanimous choice of everyone initially. What has happened is that some of the sub-consultants, including Drew Goetting, were not available for the project because of all the delays. If Council determines the goal is definitely creek restoration, that will help staff a lot. Previously, there were very differing views on what the ereek should look like. Ms. Ayala did not understand how that happened. A year and a half ago at the invitation of the Friends of Kottinger Creek, she visited the site and made it clear that she wanted to restore the creek and get rid of those mils. Ms. McKeehan said the only Council action was to do a study and that did not include all the specifics being discussed this evening. It was moved by Ms. Hosterman, seconded by Mr. Brozosky, to reopen the bidding process for the restoration of Kottinger Creek with the goal to be restoration to dynamic equilibrium, and to invite consultants who specialize in hydrology and stream restoration and who will prepare a maintenance manual. The roll call vote was as follows: AYES: Councilmembers - Ayala, Brozosky, Campbell, Hosterman, and Mayor Pico NOES: None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN: None Item 6d City Council direction regarding the processing of the Draft Phase II Bernal Property Specific Plan. (SR 03:021) Wayne Rasmussen presented the staff report. Mayor Pieo believed that before this process begins there should be a City Council workshop to get an overall perspective before making any changes to the Specific Plan.
