INSULATION IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT BUILDING.
One of the projects anticipated to be accomplished through the Police Department capital
improvement budget was the installation of insulation in the ceiling of the police facility.
Because of the hot weather and no insulation in the building, the City Manager authorized the
Police Chief to obtain quotes for the installation of material that would meet an R -30 insulation
rating. The lowest quote received was from Owasso /Metro Insulation at $2493, and a notice to
proceed with the project was issued. The City Manager does not have legal authority to
authorize the expenditure of funds for more than $1000, therefore, the Council must ratify the
City Manager's action. Mr Ramey moved, seconded by Ms Barnhouse, to ratify an action by
the City Manager wherein an expenditure of $2493 to Owasso /Metro was authorized.

ITEM 13: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO A RIGHT -
OF -WAY CLOSING, LOCATED ON THE EAST SIDE OF FAIRVIEW
CEMETERY BETWEEN SAID CEMETERY AND ELM CREEK ESTATES
FIRST ADDITION.
The Owasso Planning Commission reviewed a request to close a 25 foot portion of dedicated
public right -of -way between Fairview Cemetery and Elm Creek Estates First Addition. The 25-
foot portion of right -of -way was originally platted to provide access to the interior land areas
north of the cemetery. When Elm Creek estates developed, the right -of -way wasn't needed.
Property owners whose rear yards abut the right -of -way will share in the cost of closing. The
property holds very little marketable value for the City and staff recommended allowing title to
the property to revert to the abutting property owners. Some of the property owners have
already fenced the area and have been maintaining it. Mr Ramey moved, seconded by Ms
Barnhouse, to approve closing the right -of -way known as "Gem Drive' between Elm Creek
Estates First Addition and Fairview Cemetery.

he recommended that City Treasurer Sherry Bishop be removed from the position of City Clerk
' and that Ms Boutwell be appointed Acting City Clerk until a selection can be made. He further
recommended that an internal posting of the position be made, and that the first consideration
be given to city employees. Ms Barnhouse moved to table the item until the first meeting in
' August, at which time the Mayor will have returned. Motion seconded by Mr Ramey.

ITEM 15: REQUEST BY FOP LODGE #149 TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL RELATIVE
TO THE FY94 -95 CONTRACT.
Mr Yount introduced the chief negotiator, Mr Dobrinski, who explained the FOP proposal and
position. Mr Cates responded to Mr Dobrinski's presentation by stating that he agreed that an
impasse had been reached. He also stated that under the ground rules, the parties agreed that
mediation would be pursued prior to any arbitration. The presentation to the Council was not
part of the ground rule process, but the FOP has a constitutional right to appear before the
Council at any time. A letter has been prepared to contact the federal mediators and is awaiting
Mr Dobrinski's signature. Following further discussion, Mr Dobrinski requested that the
Council take action on the contract. Mr Cates said that the item was not stated so that action
could be taken on the matter. At 8:01 p.m. the Vice Mayor called a special meeting to be held
at 8:01 p.m. on Thursday, July 21, 1994 in the Council chambers for the purpose of considering
and taking action on the contract proposed by the FOP. Ms Patricia Marlar reminded the
Council that, under the Code of Ordinances, any item once considered by the Council may not
be reconsidered for a period of six months. Mr Cates affirmed that statement.

Councilor Ewing asked about the certificate of occupancy process and questioned if all new
business were being inspected by all proper departments. Chief Allen said that this is a fairly
new process and that inspections are conducted on most businesses before they open. If a
business opens before applying for a certificate of occupancy or does not apply for a certificate
of occupancy, an inspection is often made after the fact. This process is coordinated by the
Community Development Department.

MEMORANDUM
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
CITY OF OWASSO
FROM: RODNEY J RAY
CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
DATE: July 29, 1994
MANAGERIAL:
PERSONNEL - The following personnel actions have occurred since the last City Manager's
Report:
Resignations - Debora Clausen, Police Department - Records Clerk
Terminations - Eugene Cline, Garage Department - Mechanic
Nick Whitaker, Garage Department - Mechanic
Brett Hunt, Parks Department - Superintendent
' Ted McCord, Community Development - Code Enforcement Officer
Ms Clausen has been with the city for approximately eight months, first as a part-time employee
' and since July 1, as a full -time employee. She has resigned to accept a position with a private
sector company. Ms Clausen was instrumental in initiating and developing a police records
clerk position and has provided the department with a good foundation for future successes.
Mr Cline has been employed as a mechanic with the city for three months and was terminated
for violations of the city's personnel policies.
Mr Whitaker has been employed as a mechanic with the city for two years and was terminated
for violations of the city's personnel policies.
CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
July 29, 1994
Page 2
Mr Hunt has been employed as parks superintendent with the city for two years, four months
and was terminated for violations of the city's personnel policies.
Mr McCord has been employed with the city for thirteen years, most recently as code
enforcement officer, and was terminated for violations of the city's personnel policies.
If you have questions relating to the above actions, please call me. I am available to discuss,
in private,. details of these actions.
NEW LAWSUIT - The city has been named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed by "Safety National
Casualty Company." The lawsuit, filed in state district court, claims that the city did not fulfill
contract obligations relating to payment of an "adjusted premium" for excess coverage on our
self - insured workers compensation plan. The company provided excess coverage for our plan
during the first year of self insurance, however, the coverage was through the city's third party
administrator, not through a contract with the city. In fact, services from the third party
administrator (Self Insurance Service Bureau) and excess insurance provider (Safety National)
were terminated after they first attempted to require an "adjustment" in the premium. The city's
position since that time has been that there is no liability for any premium payments except those
initially agreed to in the contract with Self Insurance Service Bureau (and they were specific).
This suit is somewhat surprising since the local agent (Hogan Insurance) specifically told
representatives of Safety National that their problem was with the third party administrator, not
the city. This matter has been referred to the city attorney for his review and to prepare an
initial answer to the lawsuit. The claim against the city states that the total amount owed to
Safety National for adjusted premiums is $28,378. If you have questions, please contact Regena
Rogers, Mr Cates or me.
BLOOD DRIVE - The Employee Association /FOP Blood Drive will be held on Monday, August
8th from 1:30 to 5:30 p.m. at the Owasso Community Center. Anyone who can donate blood
is welcome. All persons who have not donated within the last year, or who bring someone who
has not donated within the last year, will receive a free T -shirt.
FINANCE:
AMBULANCE BILLING RFP - The 1994 -95 budget contained funding appropriations for
several privatization projects. Those projects were targeted because they were most suitable to
reducing cost by contracting with persons or firms who have specific expertise that the city does
not possess. One of those projects is ambulance billing. Since January of this year, the city
staff has attempted to perform the third party billing duties associated with Ordinance #469. Our
evaluation of that performance indicates that we do not have adequate resources or expertise to
do the job properly. In fact, I believe privatization of this function will product a marked
i
' CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
July 29, 1994
' Page 3
' increase in revenue. I also believe that our collection rate from non - subscribers will improve.
Other cities that utilize a privatized billing system have realized substantial revenue increases.
The staff has prepared a "REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS" to be sent to firms interested in
' bidding their billing services to the city. That "RFP" is attached for your review. Unless you
have concerns or objections, it is the staffs intent to distribute the "RFP" beginning on August
17th. If there are not major problems with your review, the "RFP's" could be received,
' evaluated and on your agenda for action by the September 20th Council meeting. After your
review, please call Ms Bishop or me if you have questions or concerns.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT:
BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT - The Owasso Board of Adjustment will review a request for a
Special Exception for a temporary real estate /construction office building for the Nottingham
Estates Subdivision at a special meeting on August 1, 1994. The Board will also address a
request for a Variance of the screening requirements in an IL district located in the Three Lakes
Industrial Park II. A more detailed memorandum from Mr Rooney regarding these items is
attached for your information and review.
PLANNING COMMISSION - The next regularly scheduled meeting of the Planning
Commission is August 9, 1994 at 7:00 p.m. Items on that agenda include a review of a
preliminary plat for Central Park Second Addition and a review of a preliminary plat for
Camden Park II. Other items include a lot split request in Hale Acres Addition and review of
a site plan for Owasso Git -N -Go, located on the northwest corner of 86th St N and 129th E Ave.
Please review the above referenced memorandum from Mr Rooney for more detailed
information. If you have any questions, please contact Mr Rooney, Mr Compton, or me.
CDBG REHAB GRANT - The grant application has been filed with the state. We can expect
a final decision in about 60 days (Oct 1). Grant request is for $197,800 to install wastewater
collection lines.
MUNICIPAL COURT:
BENCH WARRANT AUTOMATION PROJECT - The Municipal Court Clerk's office is
preparing to initiate a fully computerized bench warrant program. Previously, form letters to
warn defendants of an impending warrant and the warrant forms themselves were manually
typed, mailed, filed, and tracked by the Court Clerk. After completed warrants were signed
by the Judge, copies of the original citations and warrants were sent to the Police Department.
This manual system has naturally created a coordination problem between the warrant files at
the Court Clerk's office and the outstanding warrants list at the Police Department. Another
CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
July 29, 1994
Page 4
drawback to a manual system has been the inadequacy in providing quick access to accurate
warrant information.
The Owasso Court Clerk (Ms Garbee) and the City's computer specialist (Mr Knebel) are
currently finishing the design and programming for a custom written computer database program
to streamline the bench warrant printing and tracking process. Overall design objectives for the
project include (1) simple & efficient operation, (2) integrity of information, (3) elimination of
pre - printed forms, (4) utilization of the data previously input for the automated court docket
system, (5) accurate coordination of files between court clerk's office and police department, and
(6) speedy computerized reference of outstanding warrants for dispatchers at the police
department.
Approximately 90% of the nearly 1,200 existing bench warrants have been input into the new
database and the programming is nearly complete. The target date for full implementation is
August 1st.
ENGINEERING:
76TH STREET NORTH SIGNALIZATION PROJECT - A pre -work conference was held at
10:00 a.m. on July 28th in the conference room of the Oklahoma Department of Transportation
Division Eight office. Persons in attendance were the resident engineer and inspector from
Division Eight, office administration personnel, Gene Harris with Empire Construction (the
general contractor awarded the contract), and staff from the Public Works Department.
ODOT's contract time frame is set at 90 days, beginning on August 28, 1994. Empire
construction was awarded the contract to install signalization at the off ramps, provide turn lanes
along 76th St N under the overpass, and add a lane for right turns for the off ramp for north
bound traffic. This is a 100% federally funded project costing approximately $176,000.
Empire Construction is a very good construction firm capable of providing a first class job. The
city should see Empire on the jobsite next week initiating preliminary work on site preparation.
M
POLICE SERVICES:
VEHICLE DONATION - Sgt Brock, Chief Alexander and Canine Officer Mozingo have '
developed a proposal that was submitted to, and now has been accepted by, Classic Chevrolet.
Based on that proposal, the company has committed the use of a vehicle which will literally help '
the Owasso Police Department "take a bite out of crime." Classic is donating a white Chevrolet
Blazer for use in the Owasso canine program. This vehicle will be marked similar to the new
' CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
July 29, 1994
Page 5
' vehicle design and will be operated exclusively by the canine officer and Nick. The donated use
is for one year and is similar to the DARE vehicle program the company made available in past
years. If you have an opportunity, please say a special thank you to Classic Chevrolet for their
1 help for our police department. Also due a "job well done" is Sgt Randy Brock and Officer
Mozingo. After getting the "go ahead" from Chief Alexander, they made this donation a reality.
DEPARTMENT VACANCIES - Applications are currently being accepted at Tulsa Employment
agency to be considered for the one officer vacancy which currently is available.
IFIRE SERVICES:
' FIRE STATION DEDICATION - A final date and time has been established for the official
ceremony to turn over the title of the fire truck donated to the city by McDonnell Douglas, and
dedication of the new fire station. The events are scheduled to be held on Thursday,
August 25th at 1:30 p.m. Senator Nickles is scheduled to attend the ceremony, along with VIP's
from McDonnell Douglas. I hope all city officials can be in attendance for this important event.
t Mayor Duke and the Council will accept the truck title and be asked to participate in the
station's ribbon cutting ceremony.
1 RECREATION CENTER:
il
RECREATION PROGRAMS - NYSCA first year soccer coaches clinics have been scheduled
for August 1 and August 2. The basketball class continues through August 12.
GIRL SCOUT WORKSHOP - A badge workshop for 4th, 5th, & 6th grade Girl Scouts will be
held at the Center August 5 & 6. Approximately 40 girls and leaders will spend the night in the
activities room. This event has been held at the Center for the past two years.
NINTH GRADE BASKETBALL - School begins on August 23, 1994, and the 9th grade
basketball team will once again use our gym from 1:00 p.m. until 3:00 p.m. for practice. With
all the physical education classes, the school has a problem scheduling practices. This is a very
low use time at the Center, and is certainly a help to the school. The school system has been
willing to help other user groups, such as FOR, when their season begins by allowing them to
use school facilities after hours for ball games. This practice allows regular Center users more
free time at the facility.
CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
July 29, 1994
Page 6
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT:
NSP - Closing date for sale of NSP bonds is set for August 18th. If that date is maintained, I
expect a groundbreaking ceremony on or about August 24th. Grant requests are progressing,
the contract for purchase of the land is completed, and I understand that the review of
construction plans for the building permit should start next week. Construction could begin as
early as September 1st.
WHIRLPOOL - The groundbreaking ceremony for Whirlpool is scheduled for 9:00 a.m. on
Tuesday, August 2nd. Buses will leave from the Downtown Doubletree at 8:00 a.m. and return
to the hotel for brunch after the ceremony. Councilors wishing to ride to Tulsa should meet at
City Hall at 7:30 a.m. Expect to be back in Owasso around 1:30.
WATER DISTRIBUTION:
WATERLINE REPLACEMENT PROJECT - A request to award the bid for the waterline
replacement project will be delayed until the August 16th OPWA meeting to allow sufficient
time to evaluate all the bids. The expected cost of construction is approximately $493,028,
therefore, staff believes the additional time is warranted because of the magnitude of the
expenditure.
WASTEWATER COLLECTION:
SEWER REHABILITATION PROJECT - NOVA Engineering Inc is completing the design of
the sewer rehabilitation project for the older portion of town. The project is anticipated to cost
approximately $2,600,000 for construction. Actual construction will begin in January 1995 and
is expected to take 365 days. A memorandum summarizing the project is attached. Contact
Mr Carr or Mr Munn for additional details or questions.

FROM: F. Robert Carr
Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Manhole and Sewer Line Replacement Project (Owasso Project Number
G2.100 -94)
Construction Plans and Specifications
DATE: July 26, 1994
BACKGROUND:
Some older parts of the sanitary sewer system in the City of Owasso currently exhibit excessive
amounts of rainwater (inflow) and groundwater (infiltration) during wet weather conditions.
These types of water utilize capacities of the collection system and treatment plant that would
otherwise be used to convey and treat wastewater. The inflow and infiltration of water leads to
unnecessary hydraulic loads in the system and plant.
In the older sections of town (essentially south from 86th Street North, west of Highway 169
and south of 76th Street North, west of Highway 169), there are approximately 60,000 feet of
aged vitrified clay pipe (VCP) that are considered to be a problem. This pipe material is
relatively old and has been largely found to be cracked, broken, collapsed or filled with roots.
Many manholes in the area are deteriorated, in varying degrees, which allow water to enter the
system.
PROJECT SCOPE:
The Owasso Public Works Authority secured a low interest loan from the Oklahoma Water
Resources Board for improvements to the water distribution system, wastewater collection
system and wastewater treatment plant. Approval of the loan required selection of an
engineering firm for the design of the improvements. After interviewing five engineering firms,
the Trustees selected NOVA Engineering to design the improvements to the wastewater
collection and water distribution systems. (The water system improvements have been bid.)
As designed, the project consists of approximately 290 items of manhole rehabilitation and
replacement, approximately 6,600 LF of cured -in -place pipe lining, approximately 41,300 LF
Manhole and Sewer Line Replacement Project
of high density polyethylene slip lining and approximately 12,500 LF of removal of existing line
and replacement with 8 -inch PVC pipe. The locations of sewer lines included in the limits of
this project are shown on the attached Figure 1.
NOVA Engineering has completed the design plans and specifications for the construction. Staff
has reviewed and approved the design and contract documents. Estimated cost of construction
is $2,600,000.
PROJECT SCHEDULE:
The project is anticipated to start construction in January 1995. The construction period is
expected to be 365 days and should be completed in January 1996.
Design and construction specifications August 31, 1994

provided with a complete set of design plans and contract documents in the agenda packet for
that meeting.

FROM: MICHAEL J. KNEBEL
SUBJECT: ODOT PUBLIC HEARING IN CLAREMORE
HIGHWAY 20 WIDENING PROPOSAL
DATE: July 25, 1994
BACKGROUND
Last week you requested that I attend a public hearing pertaining to the proposed project to
reconstruct highway 20 from state highway 66 in Claremore to US 169 north of Owasso. The
meeting was held July 19'' in Claremore's Community Center located adjacent to the fire department
at 104 S Muskogee.
ODOT'S PRESENTATION
The Oklahoma Department of Transportation had three representatives present to outline the three
alternatives currently being studied for the twelve mile project. Citizens from the area attending the
meeting numbered between 350 and 400. Mr. David Branch, the hearing officer, opened the
meeting by stating that the widening project is necessitated from a safety standpoint based on
average daily traffic counts of 7,000 vehicles and projections for 14,000 per day within ten years.
He also impressed upon the attendants that the entire project was still in a very early stage and no
design work would be initiated until an environmental impact study was complete. Mr. Branch
made reference to several displayed aerial photographs depicting three possible routes for the project
and stated each depicted route was simply a piece of colored tape on a map that could easily be
moved in the future. The possible routes he was referring to differed only from the bottom of
Keetonville Hill eastward to US 169.
Routing from Claremore is proposed to follow the existing highway 20 eastward to just east of the
Verdigris bridge. From there, the map depicted using (1) the current route to 169 highway, (2) an
eastward route cutting through the hill and continuing straight east on 106'h Street to highway 169,
and (3) the same eastward route cutting through the hill and east on 106' Street for approximately
one and one half miles and then angling north for approximately another one and one half miles to
connect with the existing 116' Street route to highway 169. Mr. Manuel Martinez (Department
Design Engineer) discussed right of way requirements for the proposal. He stated that the design
6 7
would be a based on two 12 foot lanes in each direction with a median divider and the overall
project would be based on a safety factor for 65 miles per hour travel. Proposed right -of -way
requirements would average well over 100 feet from center of median in both directions, but any
specific requirements will not be known until an alternative is selected and actual design work
completed.
ODOT Scoping Team Chairman, Mr. Kyle McKinley, explained issues involving the affected
environment. His discussion centered on possible environmental issues to be used as criteria for
evaluation of the three alternative routes. These issues include land use impacts, social impacts,
relocation impacts, air quality impacts, wetland impacts, floodplain impacts, visual impacts, energy,
construction impact, water quality impacts, etc. He stated that the primary reason for the public
hearing was to gather information on the affected environment so a complete study could be
completed and turned in to the Federal Department of Transportation with a recommended route
plan. It was impressed upon everyone present that comments or information from the public must
be submitted in writing by July 29, 1994 to be incorporated into the proposal.
It was further stated that the environmental study would take between nine months and one year to
complete. At that time, another public hearing would be scheduled to discuss the outcome of the
study. Sometime after the second hearing, the selected route would be presented along with
preliminary engineering plans.
PUBLIC COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS
After the presentation, the floor was opened for questions. The majority of questions pertained to
elements involving right -of -way acquisition, routing, and time frame. Information on these items
was not available due to the fact that (1) routing selection is tied to the completion of the
environmental study and (2) the project is not yet included in the current five year highway
expansion plan. It was noted that the existing route going up Keetonville Hill probably would not
be seriously considered due to the instability of soil and the number of tight curves going up the
hill. Several other comments from the public included information concerning new and existing
cemeteries along the route, new subdivisions currently being located in very close proximity with
106°i Street, and the proposed Tulsa "super- loop" highway routing. A handout explaining how to
submit written comments and a list of items normally considered during project development was
available for all meeting attendants.
If you need additional information about the any of the items of discussion, please contact me.
