REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 5 Councilwoman Barker seconded the motion. VOTE:Unanimous The motion carried. OLD BUSINESS AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT AUDIT SERVICES AND AUTHORIZATION TO PROCEED WITH AMENDING STATE SALES TAX COLLECTION AGREEMENT )City Clerk Kathleen Connelly stated that this agreement has been considered by the Council on several occasions,and that on May 7th the Council made a motion to bring this agreement back for con- sideration tonight.Ms Connelly gave a history on the initiation of this agenda item going back to 1986,and stated that the requested amendments had been made to the contract by the City Attorney;representatives of the Government Management Services Group met with the Council at a work session;the Council again postponed the contract to allow for additional amendments and public rela- tions work.Ms Connelly stated that the presented contract includes the amendments,that there was ad in the City Page of the Independent,and the Citizen Newsletter,and that the Independent also ran six different articles on the issue. Ms Connelly further stated that Councilwoman Alger has discussed with her the possibility of sending out indivi- dual letters to all of the licensed businesses,which would cost $496.80 for the permanent businesses and an additional cost of $461.75 to send letters to the park n'swap vendors,with a total of $958.05. Ms Connelly requested consideration of the contract and the letter proposal,and suggested leaving the effective date of the contract open until the audit team can be consulted as to scheduling. City Attorney David Alexander stated that following the Council packet preparation,Mr.Moss of the Group contacted him requesting that one paragraph in the contract be changed,specifically, Section I ,Item 10,instead of "provide"i t should read "recommend". Mr.Alexander explained that the hearing officer would not be paid for by this Group,and that for them to buy the services of the hearing officer as well as advocating a position looks suspicious. Councilwoman Barker asked what this change would mean in terms of cost. Mr.Alexander replied that this would not be required until a hearing,the individuals recommended would be REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 6 accountants or attorneys who would be paid on an hourly basis on the hearing hours,so an estimate could not be provided until an individual is chosen and the length of a hearing determined. Councilwoman Barker asked if any monies designated for this was delineated in the original contract. Mr.Alexander answered that he didn't recall anything being said about hearing officers in the original,but that he had included this in this amended contract. Vice Mayor Eidson asked how much other cities receive from these audits. Ms Connelly replied that other cities have had recent audits and are still in the process of assessing. Vice Mayor Eidson stated that i t is strange to be paying a percentage of something that has not been received,and expressed objection to canvassers going door-to-door. Ms Connelly explained that can- vassers would attempt to go to each business in the City,but that it would not be an audit -it would simply be routine questions. Vice Mayor Eidson pointed out that many business owners will not be in the City during the summer. Mayor Damiano asked i f Vice Mayor Eidson is suggesting this be done in the Fall. Vice Mayor Eidson commented that he feels that all businesses should pay sales tax,but that this method has too many loose ends with an undetermined gross assessment that we may never receive. Ms Connelly explained that the com- panies audited will be those from which we feel we can get a reasonable return. Vice Mayor Eidson pointed out that i f the Group is going to get their percentage anyway,what difference will i t make to them. Ms Connelly pointed out that the Group has a professional reputation at stake,and that they do come very highly recommended by other cities. Mayor Damiano stated that i f the business isn't guilty - what are they worried about,and that there are some businesses in the City that are not paying their taxes of close to $100,000, which needs to be recouped. REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 7 Mayor Damiano asked i f staff knows who the auditors will go after. Ms Connelly replied that this is not known at this time,however,staff is aware of some who are probably in viola- tion and have been turned over to the State.Ms Connelly stated that those they are aware of are large rental properties. Councilwoman Alger agreed that all businesses should pay sales tax,but also agreed with Vice Mayor Eidson's concerns,and stated that there has not been enough public relations done on this issue to ensure the good will of the community. Mayor Damiano asked what it would cost to hire an auditor. Ms Connelly replied that including benefits,the salary would be approximately $27,000,but that there would also have to be a hearing officer obligation. Councilwoman Alger stated that some people have expressed that they would be more comfortable with a City staff per- son,rather than someone from the outside. Mayor Damiano stated that the longer this is prolonged -the longer businesses are getting away with not paying sales taxes. Councilman Coleman stated that i f this were done in-house,i t could be construed as going after certain people only,but that an outside auditor would guarantee impartiality. Councilwoman Alger agreed that both methods can be perceived negatively. Councilman Coleman also stated that sending out letters will needlessly cause concern. Councilman Perkins asked i f he should abstain from this item because of Fire Department employees being con- sidered as canvassers. Mr.Alexander replied that Councilman Perkins could not be a canvasser so there would not be a personal benefit. Councilman Perkins stated that the individuals who have contacted Councilwoman Alger probably pay their taxes,so they have nothing to worry about,and that i t is those who are not paying that would prefer the in-house method as there may be influence exerted through the City Council. REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 8 Councilwoman Alger stated that the business owners who have contacted her are the ones that are concerned with the community perception. Councilwoman Barker asked about a tri-fold mailer versus mailing letters with envelopes,and added that most of the Council appear to feel this audit firm is a good idea,so possibly i f costs could be cut on mailings this extra mile could be taken. Ms Connelly replied that a tri-fold is possible,and that there is no objection from staff to the mailing,but felt that a letter in a sealed envelope would be more professional. Councilwoman Alger stated that the perception would be alleviated i f the mailing were done. Vice Mayor Eidson stated that he approves of the concept of the Group,and i t has been mentioned that those who are paying will not be bothered,but the only way to discover who is not paying would be to audit those with records -those who are paying. Ms Connelly stated that the reason the Council requested clearance prior to audits taking place,was to ward off any unnecessary audits. Mayor Damiano commented that this should be done as soon as possible,but i f the Council wishes to postpone one or two more meetings that would be fine. Ms Connelly stated that to postpone further would jeopordize the contract,as the individuals have not taken contracts with other cities in good faith,because of this pending contract. Councilwoman Barker MOVED THAT THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF APACHE JUNCTION AND GOVERNMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES GROUP BE APPROVED WITH THE FOLLOWING AMENDMENT: ON PAGE 2,ITEM 10 THE WORD "PROVIDE"BE REMOVED,AND THE WORD "RECOMMEND" REPLACE IT,AND WITH AN EFFECTIVE DATE OF JULY 1,1991 AND THAT THE ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE BE NOTIFIED OF THE CITY'S INTENT TO ENTER INTO THE AUDIT AGREEMENT; I FURTHER MOVE THAT A LETTER EXPLAINING THE AUDIT PROCESS AND PROCEDURES BE SENT TO ALL IN -CITY LICENSED BUSINESSES PRIOR TO JULY 1,1991. Councilman Coleman seconded the motion. REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 9 Councilwoman Alger amended the motion THAT THE EFFECTIVE DATE BE LEFT BLANK,WITH THE EFFECTIVE DATE TO BE ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THE CITY CLERK AND THE CONSULTANTS. Councilwoman Barker seconded the amendment. Ms Connelly asked i f the "in-Cityv businesses refers to permanent businesses including park n'swap or just per- manent businesses. Councilwoman Alger replied that most of the swap meet vendors are gone anyway. VOTE (on the amendment):Unanimous VOTE (on the original motion as amended):Unanimous The motion carried as amended. Vice Mayor Eidson commented that i f the auditors come in like gang busters he will request their immediate removal. NEW BUSINESS COUNCIL NOMINATION AND SELECTION OF VICE MAYOR ) )Mayor Damiano called for a motion to open nomination for the office of Vice Mayor. Councilwoman Alger MOVED THAT WE OPEN NOMINATIONS FOR THE OFFICE OF VICE MAYOR. Councilwoman Barker seconded the motion. VOTE:Unanimous The motion carried. Mayor Damiano called for nominations. Councilman Cox nominated Councilman Eidson,because of his longevity on the Council. Mayor Damiano asked three times i f there were any other nominations. REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 10 Councilwoman Alger MOVED THAT NOMINATIONS FOR THE OFFICE OF VICE MAYOR BE CLOSED. Councilman Cox seconded the motion. VOTE:Unanimous The motion carried. VOTE (on the nomination of Councilman Eidson):Unanimous The motion carried. Mayor Damiano stated that Councilman Eidson was Vice Mayor at one time,and did an excellent job,and congratulated Vice Mayor Eidson on his nomination and selection. COUNCIL DESIGNATION OF SIGNERS FOR CITY CHECKS )City Clerk Kathleen Connelly explained that this is procedural matter requested by the City Auditors,and by virtue of State law as City Treasurer,she is also a check signer,but that three elected officials need to be designated as check signers also. Mayor Damiano pointed out that he and Councilman Cox are already check signers,so only one more needs to be designated. Ms Connelly stated that due to a change in the Council,everyone will need to go through the process again. Councilwoman Barker suggested sub- situting Vice Mayor Eidson for previously Vice Mayor Damiano,and Mayor Damiano for Mayor Bluntschly and leave Councilman Cox as a signer. Councilwoman Barker MOVED THAT THE FOLLOWING THREE COUNCIL REPRESENTATIVES BE DESIGNATED AS CHECK SIGNERS: MAYOR DAMIANO,VICE MAYOR EIDSON,AND COUNCILMAN COX. motion. VOTE:Unanimous The motion carried. REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 11 Councilwoman Alger seconded the CONSIDERATION OF EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY MANAGER )City Manager Michael R.Lee explained that this employment contract with the City Manager would make bene- fits comparible to classified employees and tie salary adjustments directly to the budget process. Councilwoman Barker stated that this contract has been improved upon from the original contract with benefits such as sick leave being included,however,the salary amount not being designated is a problem because the budget will list a group salary for that particular area and she would like to see this contract the same as other employee contracts with a salary amount designated.Councilwoman Barker added that "fill in the blank" contracts are not a good idea. Councilwoman Alger suggested that as a compromise the City Manager's salary be set out as a "line item",separate from the other salaries in that department,so that it may be reviewed as that strictly. Councilwoman Alger MOVED THAT THE CITY MANAGER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF APACHE JUNCTION AND MICHAEL LEE BE APPROVED AS PRESENTED. VOTE:In Favor: Opposed: Councilman Cox seconded the motion. Councilman Cox,Councilman Perkins,Councilman Coleman, Vice Mayor Eidson,Councilwoman Alger,Mayor Damiano Councilwoman Barker The motion carried. COUNCIL DIRECTION TO STAFF ON PROPOSED LEGISLATION OR ACTIONS: DIRECTION TO STAFF REGARDING AN ORDINANCE TO AUTHORIZE THE MAGISTRATE COURT TO USE COMMUNITY SERVICE AS A DIVERSION PROGRAM. Mr.Lee stated that this item is in response to a recommendation by the City's insurance company,Southwest Risk Management,and read item two on the fourth page,stating that this is the pri- mary reason for the recommendation. Councilwoman Barker asked that this simply authorizes the fact that community service can be done. REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 12 Mr.Lee replied that this is true, and that i t is better liability protection to have a legislative action rather than administrative rules. Ms Connelly asked i f i t is necessary to accomplish this by ordinance,which has publication costs. Mr.Alexander replied that the recommendation is by law,and the law implies that an ordinance be enacted authorizing the Court as part of any probation period,etc.,to give a sentence of community services. Councilwoman Barker MOVED THAT DIRECTION BE GIVEN STAFF,THROUGH THE CITY MANAGER,TO DRAFT AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE MAGISTRATE COURT TO USE COMMUNITY SERVICE AS A DIVERSION PROGRAM. Councilman Cox seconded the motion. VOTE:Unanimous The motion carried. DIRECTION TO STAFF AND/OR THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION TO REZONE SECTION 15 TO 1% -ACRE MINIMUM LOT SIZE TO AGREE WITH GENERAL PLAN LOW DENSITY. Councilwoman Alger explained the last time this was brought to the Council,the Council decided that until some of the residents in the area,in Section 15,requested the change to not take any action.Councilwoman Alger stated that residents have requested the change, and that Section 15 is one of the last full sections in the City that is reserved for low density and does not have a lot of development,so i t needs to be reserved in 1% acre lots. Councilwoman Alger requested that this be sent to the Planning and Zoning Commission to begin the change. Ms Nancy Koerner,1026 N.Goldfield Road,Apache Junction,made a presentation explaining the density in Apache Junction since incorporation,and requested that this change be made. Vice Mayor Eidson stated that he did not object to the change,but it may be safer i f there were property owner signatures on something requesting the change,and asked the City Attorney for an opinion. City Attorney David Alexander replied that such a liability has been considered by the State Legislature and has not passed,so today "down -zoning"may not be compensible,but tomorrow i t might be depending upon how the State Legislatures act. REGULAR MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL JUNE 4,1991 PAGE 13 Councilwoman Alger asked how many properties in this Section are zoned CR-1. Senior Planner Jim Nakagawa according to study done in 1986 and 1987 there were 180 to 200 property owners. Councilwoman Alger asked i f everything in this Section is CR-1. Mr.Nakagawa replied that this also included properties within 300 feet and included some commercial zones. Councilwoman Alger pointed out that the abandonment done tonight was also in Section 15,with three properties being put back together. Councilwoman Alger added that since the property owners have gone to the trouble of obtaining signatures of over 51%,researching the possibility of the change,i t should be considered. Ms Koerner stated that over 200 let- ters were sent out,with some of the people owning more than one parcel,and that 90 people returned cards indicating a desire for low density,11 desired medium density,three wished to leave i t as i t is,and that six were returned undelivered. Ms Koerner added that there are some properties along Highway 88 that are already commercial,and some travel trailer parks,both of which would not be changed. Vice Mayor Eidson stated that there should be something on file that says the citizens wish this change. Councilwoman Alger stated that there will have to be public hearings,notification,and such prior to making the change. Councilwoman Alger MOVED THAT DIRECTION BE GIVEN STAFF AND THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION,THROUGH THE CITY MANAGER,TO DRAFT THE NECESSARY AMENDMENTS TO THE ZONIGN ORDINANCE AND HOLD PUBLIC HEARINGS,IN ORDER TO REZONE SECTION 15 TO 1 1/4 ACRE MINIMUM LOT SIZE TO COMPLY WITH GENERAL PLAN LOW DESNITY DESIGNATION,WITH THE LOW DENSITY DESIGNATION TO BE R1-43 ZONING. Councilwoman Barker seconded the motion. VOTE:Unanimous The motion carried.
