Report of :.Dir. of 'P,ublic_Works da May - 4,1962, - -- re -'bid opening on
May 19628 read and.:filed. . The.report noted - that only one bid had 'bee
received which was .10 j above the Engineer ' estimate' However, clue to the
difficult nature 'of the work and the need to accomplish - it -as soon as- possible '
it was .recommended that the bid be -accepted.
In vie - of ' . 'the way the -specifications -read, Councilman Kirig felt 'that
any contractor bidding on this project would probably take .into consideration
the fact that it might. be :necessary to -haul in a-11 new 'fill and .include tthis :
additional expense in his bid price.
-City, - Engineer -Don Scott pointed out, : however, that this. was- not necessarily
true. :The contractor could ins:pe`ct the-are involved in-theprujecc an, determine
Whether or not it Would be •necessary - to haul in all of -the .fill. 1\lr.o Scott. :portzted
out tha- t,-Mr. Amaral °s bid on this particular item had not been high, that, me
costly portion of°the subject project wa . the -work to be•done under the wharf_.
..Because of the tides,, this work'could only be done�durang -about 3 -houfs of., each
:> day He believed this' -part item also accounted for the fact that only one

To 'a .ques;tion by .Councilman Colin, the - Director .of Finance answered
that she - believed :there would be.aufficient� money in the Sewer Construction &

Cola - of letter from 'Teariaste.r�s Union attorney Joseph. R'. ' Grodin dated
May 4, 1962, re representation of employees by Teamsters Union 'Local #624,
read a-nd filed
Councilman Crinella reported that the Council Committee had already
meronce -with the Employee Association representatives relative to ifri.nge .
benefits and that the Council Committee had :been pretty much" in accord with
the.- -, ggesf ons made by the -employees, He felt that after one more meeting
with .th.is group; the Council, Committee .would be - able .to report its recomm.enda-
tions- to the , Councilu
D
To gPaesta;o -ns by the :Mayor and. various trxem.bers of the-Council., City
Attorney Ed-'.Robert stated that the -union could represent :any City employee who
chose ?to be represented by a union, as Tang as'-the charter of said union stated
that one.of - its primary purposes.was the representation of pub "I. , employees..
However,. it was his understanding that'even though the majority of employees
in any department voted in favor. of joining a union, this did not'commi6 th,. '
remainder of em - Dloyees in -that department., In other words, union reps- esentation
was, not decided -by majority vote, beat by the choice of each individual employee.
He therefore believed that the - Council would be �justif.ied in 'requesting to know
which 'employees were. r.ep:resented by the anion, which employees were
being, represented by the E'Mpl,oyees' Association, etc. Otherwise., it would be
.possible for: one. ern ployee -to be represented lay two organizations or representa-
rives at the - saute time„
Councilman Crinella . felt: that the :employees 'had the right to be represented
by a'ny group they chose aid that. their also had the right to decide if they.did.not
wash to be represented by a :part:culax group, - However, it was his belief that
they would `be as well .represented by the Employees'' Assoei.aton as by any other
hearing throii h the,es�tablishm
group in as benefits were -concerned, He pointed out that these benefits
.could, ..for_, ,znstanc e include the eari g of grievances g ent .

'r
it to furnish the City with a -proper copy of :its. charter, or other document, which

that hey could not obtain, an opinion directly.

Water Supt, Dave Y-oung explained that the interim agreement would

g � p -
Councilrnan. Coliia asked that the aster agreement with North_ 1VIarirr be
exee'uted' as soon as possible..
The- -City - Attorney believed, that the interim agreement could be put into .

.that.,Nortb•Marin desired to'add to the proposed one for the' - purpose of giving
some' kind of termination notice under this 'arrangezxient. Such te- rminatiori
.. notice, - he understood,' Wo.u_ld.ar se. either -when there vias' o surplus capacity
in the pipe for the City s water to go through it; or, when th ey - had no , surplus

Aqueduct Agreement
Referring to a resolution recently passed by the,B6ard of Supervisors .iii.
connec.t,on'with the Aquedfict Agreem.'enat, the City Attc�rzle�� stated that he believed;
basically, instead of requiring a $2.0 000 depo sit from No rth 'Marin , and` Petaluma,
this Jresolut'ion authorized the. acceptance of $lu,. 000 as :an interim deposit and
deferred' the .balance of the $20 M O, until needed by,the Flood Control District.
He explained that the County had prepared an addendum the original: agreement.
which sh10.0'1d lie authorized by a . resolution of the Cou.nclA theme executed anel

Councilman .Crinella expressed the opinion that the experience requir
ment for inspectors should be reduced from 5 years to , 2 or 3 years. Also, he
objected to the .Ines set fort h in the ordinance for violations, stating that he
believed they were a little too harsh. Referring to the provision that the manufac-
turer °s' name be stamped on materials, Councilman. Crinella stated that he felt
the stamping of the gauge on such materials should. be sufficient.
Councilman Van Bebber stated that he definitely favored the experience
requirement for inspectors set forth in the code.
Relative to'the penalty section of the ordinance, the City.Attorney no nted
out that this was the standard misdemeanor provision.
city Plumbing.-Anspector A. Oberto told the Council that while attending
