MINUTES Page 10 City of San Leandro City Council and San Leandro Redevelopment Agency Joint Meeting-March 6, 2006 Public Comments on the Consent Calendar: Bo Johansen, San Leandro resident, addressed the City Council regarding Item 8.A., commenting that the project is still not complete because the contractor has not completed the cleanup of one of the properties. Mr. Johansen stated that he has asked for a financial accounting of the project but has not received it. He commented that two of his neighbors cannot park in front oftheir homes due to the placement of red zones. Lou Filipovich, San Leandro resident, addressed the City Council, expressing agreement with the comments made by the previous speaker. He commented regarding Item 8.D., the ordinance establishing procedures for the runoff election. End of Public Comments on the Consent Calendar Mr. Jermanis reported that staff is aware ofthe issues raised by Mr. Johansen. He noted that acceptance of the project does not mean that the contractor will receive full payment, and he indicated that the City can retain funds for outstanding claims. Mr. Jermanis stated that staff will prepare a final accounting of project costs and provide the information to the homeowners along with their share of the costs. Mr. Jermanis pointed out that, due to size of street, it was not possible to create a full cul-de-sac. Instead, red zones were created so that emergency vehicles would not be obstructed by parked vehicles. Mr. Jermanis commented on the street lighting issue previously raised by Mr. Johansen, noting that the placement of the street lights meets the City's standard. Mr. Jermanis commented that the revised ordinance for the runoff election adds the provision requested by Council for filing new candidate statements for the runoff.
