CITY MANAGER EDWARD LAVALLEE responded that the only cost estimate is thatprovided in the letter from Mr. Kniskern.

b. Communication from Lawrence Cutler, President/CEO, National Museum of AmericanIllustration, opposing the NRF plan for Queen Anne Square

Comments by LAWRENCE CUTLER, 492 Bellevue Ave., wherein he read from a preparedstatement in opposition to the proposed Newport Restoration Foundation plan designed by Maya Linfor Queen Anne Square. He noted that Newport has sought recognition as a UNESCO WorldHeritage Site Designation, which recognizes a city whose outstanding values are preserved for futuregenerations, and said the Queen Anne Square proposal does not meet the criteria. He also said he didnot believe the $500,000 endowment for maintenance of the park would be sufficient.

Comments by DONALD TOFIAS, 79 Dixon St., wherein he stated he holds a degree in Art Historyfrom Cornell University and he considered the NRF proposal an attack on Newport. He said thatwhile Mya Lin should be commended for her design of the Viet Nam Memorial, her plan for QueenAnne Square fails to recognize an historic area. He urged the Council to rej ect the plan and insteadhave the park spruced up and a monument to Doris Duke installed.

Comments by ANDREW SEGAL, 24 Mill St., wherein he said the City is not required to accept thegift of the NRF. He noted that the park is in the Historic District and questioned if proposed changesare required to go before the Historic District Commission as are the surrounding properties. Hesaid he has not read any positive articles on the proposal and he hoped that when the plans aresubmitted there would be ample time for public review and a workshop.

MINUTES OF THE COUNCIL MEETINGHELD NOVEMBER 9,201 IPage 3

Comments by MICHAEL WALSH, 7 Hall Ave., who said the Newport Restoration Foundation haspresented Newport with a fantastic opportunity as Maya Lyn will be working with the foremostlandscape architect in the field. He said change is vital to a community and the proposal should beaccepted.

ELIZABETH MEYER, 28 Church St., asked when the Council would vote on the matter. MAYORWALUK responded he couldn't answer because the proposal and plans have not yet been received,although he believed the NRF was aiming for the December 14, 2011, council meeting. He said that,once received, the proposal and plans would be available to the public.

Comments by JUDY CUTLER, 492 Bellevue Ave., who completed Lawrence Cutler's writtenstatement, which pointed out that no details of the plan and budget have been provided, and it is afiction to call the Lin proposal a monument.

Comments by DALE CLARKE, 398 Thames St., who cited the 1979 map plan for Queen AnneSquare, revised in 1981 (#10-10-20) in the Land Evidence Office, and cited parcels five and seven ascomprising the park known as Queen Ann Square.

Comments by MS. FRANKIE HUTTON, 6 Holten Ave., who noted that the Mayor said the proposalmight be before the Council for a vote on December 14th, which would be unfair as the citizens wouldnot have ample time to review the plans.

COUNCILOR MC LAUGHLIN moved the communication be received. Seconded by COUNCILORWINTHROP and VOTED UNANIMOUSLY.

MAYOR WALUK recused himself and left the dais.

COUNCILOR MC LAUGHLIN read the resolution and moved for its adoption. Seconded byCOUNCILOR WINTHROP.

COUNCILOR NAPOLITANO pointed out that the pension reform would not include private pensionplans, such as Newport police and fire pensions; however, that could change in the future. She saidshe hoped the municipal employees understand the need for the pension reform and commended theGeneral Treasurer for bringing it forward.

Comments by FRANK LANDRY, 59 Friendship St., President, Local 911, Council 94 AFSCME,who asked how many Council Members had read the legislation, and said it would be politicalmalpractice to support a bill they haven't read. He said the 108 employees he represents, which henoted have not had a contract since June 30, 2009, did not cause the problem with the state pension;they made their payments into the system, which included extra payments for cost-of-livingincreases, and retirees, especially those on the lower end, would suffer hardships without the COLA.He urged the Council to, before voting on the resolution, read the 124-page bill, which he said givesunbelievable power to the State Treasurer, General Assembly, and the Governor, and subrogatescollective bargaining.

Page 14: Council Docket 12 14

MINUTES OF THE COUNCIL MEETINGHELD NOVEMBER 9,201 IPageS

COUNCILOR WINTHROP responded that the Council is not voting on the language in the bill buton the need for pension reform because of the concern that there will be no pension system in thefuture without reform now. COUNCILOR LEONARD agreed. COUNCILOR NAPOLITANOcommented that five years ago an actuary advised the City that the promise (for future benefits)needed to be changed, and projected numbers for the pension costs next year, without reform, willstrangle the cities and towns.

COUNCILOR MC LAUGHLIN thanked Mr. Landry for his comments, and said that the State isacknowledging it can't deliver on its pension promises because ofthe funding problems. He notedthat the City ofNewport has met its annual payment requirements; however, in 2010, $19 million ofthe City's $61 million budget, or 31 %, went to pensions and post employment benefits.

The motion to approve was VOTED UNANIMOUSLY (6-0).

MEMORANDUM

To: Mayor and Councilors

Thru: Edward Lavallee, City Manager I:.J- \From: Laura Sitrin, Director ofFinance~ / ~Date: December 1, 2011

RE: Police and Fire Pension Valuations

Attached please find the July 1, 2011 police and fire pension valuations. I stronglyrecommend that the Council consider having a joint workshop with the Trust andInvestment Commission where the actuaries from Buck Consultants come andexplain the valuations and funding levels. There are significant changes in pensionreporting on the way including having to record the entire liability on our statementof net assets. There has also been constant media and public focus on the localplans. The actuaries may be able to address some of the concerns and questions.

We have made a couple of changes in assumptions this year in preparation of GASBproposed new pension accounting and reporting standards. The actuarial fundingmethod was changed from Projected Unit Credit to individual Entry Age Normal.This actually helped us a little. We eliminated the five-year smoothing of assets andwent with market value. Mortality assumptions were revised because the actuariesinsisted on changing them.

Two new tables have been included in the report which you may find helpful. Thefirst is an appropriation forecast showing both what the City's annUlil requiredcontribution will be plus the funded status of the plan. This report can be found onpage 7 of the valuations. The second table is on page 8 and shows the major reasonsfor changes in the liability during the last year.

The police pension shows a total liability of $76,570,775 of which $43,693,248 isfunded. The unfunded liability is $32,877,527 and the plan is 57.1% funded. Theannual required contribution for the FY13 budget is increasing by $562,393. '

The fire pension shows a total liability of $82,907,130. There are total assets of$32,832,334 leaving an unfunded liability of $50,074,796 (a decrease from the prioryear). The City is 39.6% funded in the fire pension and the annual contribution forFY13 is increasing by $261,970.

POLICE PENSION SYSTEM

Report of the July 1,2011, Actuarial Valuation

I. Purpose and Summary

This report presents the results of our July I, 20II, actuarial valuation of the City of Newport, Rhode

Island Police Pension System. The valuation was performed at the request of the City of Newport for

purposes of determining annual contribution levels for the City and to develop information regarding

actuarial liabilities required for the City's financial disclosures.

In summary, the recommended City contribution for the 2012-2013 fiscal year is $3,461,972, if

deposited in one lump sum on June 30, 2013. This contribution has been developed based on a 20-,year amortization of the unfunded actuarial liability. If the City would prefer to make monthly

contributions at the end of each month, it should contribute $279,031.

The development of the valuation results is shown in Tables IA through 5 and described in more detail on

the following pages.

The valuation reflects combined results for police hired before and after July I, 1984. It is our

understanding that prior to July I, 1998, these groups were segregated with separate actuarial valuations

performed in alternate years.

II. Membership Data

The City furnished data for active and retired members as of July I, 20 II. Although we did not audit this

data, we did review it for reasonableness and consistency. Table 2A provides a distribution by age and

service for active members. Table 2B provides a distribution by age and gender for retired members and

beneficiaries.

III. Plan Provisions

A summary of the principal benefit provisions recognized for purposes of the valuation is provided in

Table 4. This summary reflects our understanding of the System's benefit provisions based upon

information provided to us by the City.

IV. Assets

The City provided us with the asset information used for purposes of this valuation. According to this

information, the market value of assets attributable to this plan was $43,69,3,248 as of July I, 2011,

compared to $35,525,199 as ofJuly 1,2010. For valuation purposes, assets are valued at market value. It is

our understanding that there are no contributions due for the fiscal year ending June 30, 20 II, which were

accrued as ofJune 30, 2011.

V. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions

The actuarial methods and assumptions employed in this valuation are outlined in Table 3. Primary

economic assumptions include 7.50% investment return (net of expenses) and 3.50% weighted-average

salary increases. The individual Entry Age Normal actuarial cost method has been used to determine

liabilities for funding purposes and to determine liabilities for financial disclosure purposes as required by

accounting standards. The mortality assumption uses mortality tables prescribed by the IRS for non­

governmental pension plans, as specified in IRS Regulation 1.430(h)(3)-I. The mortality tables are applied

on a fully generational basis, meaning that continued mortality improvement is reflected. The assumed rate

for Cost ofLiving Adjustments is 3.00%.

Report of the July 1,2011, Actuarial Valuation

VI. Funding Policy

It is our understanding that, beginning with the 1996-1997 fiscal year, the City adopted a funding policy

designed to include in its annual contribution an amount that reflects the amortization of the unfunded

actuarial accrued liability over a 30-year period. Beginning with the July I, 2002 valuation, the 30-year

period was reduced by one year and is being stepped down by one year for each valuation going forward.

This policy is intended to satisfy the requirements of GASB Statement No. 27.

Our recommended contribution for 2012-2013 is developed as the 20-year contribution for the fiscal year

of the valuation (2011-2012), projected forward with expected growth in covered payroll.

VII. Analysis of Valuation Results

Valuation results are summarized in Table lA, including a comparison to prior valuation results. Assets

are currently about 57% of accrued liabilities.

The Plan realized an actuarial gain of approximately $5.6 million for the Plan year. Liabilities had a loss of

$0.3 million, which was completely offset by a $5.9 million gain in assets. The Plan's gains and losses are

illustrated with more detail in Table ID.

In addition, several changes were implemented since the last valuation. The actuarial funding method was

changed from Projected Unit Credit to individual Entry Age Normal, and the asset method was changed

from 5 year smoothed actuarial value of assets to market value of assets. In addition, the mortality

assumptions were revised. The net effect of these changes was a $4,055,043 decrease in unfunded liability

and $416,886 increase in normal cost.

The normal cost illustrated in Table IA reflects the long-term cost of the plan absent underfunding. This

cost is about 23.5% ofcurrent payroll.

Report of the July 1,2011, Actuarial Valuatiou

This report fairly represents the actuarial position of the City of Newport Police Pension System as of

July 1, 2011, in accordance with generally accepted actuarial principles applied consistently with the

preceding valuation. In our opinion, the actuarial assumptions used to compute actuarial accrued liability

and normal cost are reasonably related to plan experience and to reasonable expectations, and represent our

best estimate of anticipated plan experience.

The following exhibit forecasts the Annual Required Contribution and Funding Ratio under the adopted

funding schedule.

Note that the forecast is based upon an "open group" method. This method assumes that sufficient

employees will be hired each year to keep the number constant. The total payroll of the system is expected

to increase 3.5% per year. Payments are assumed to be made at the end of each year.

The employer total cost is expected to increase until the unfunded accrued liabilities are completely paid

off in 2032, at which time only the normal cost will remain.

Total (gain)/Ioss

In performing the actuarial valuation, various assumptions are made regarding such factors as mortality,

retirement, disability and withdrawal rates as well as payroll, salary increases and investment returns. A

comparison of the current valuation and the prior valuation is made to determine how closely actual

experience corresponded to anticipated occurrences. This analysis of the system provides insight into the

overall quality ofthe actuarial assumptions and helps explain any change in the annual appropriation.

During the last year, the total unfunded actuarial accrued liability increased by 0.8% to $32,877,527.

However, the plan experienced a gain of approximately $5.6 million. The main cause for the gain was that

investment returns exceeded expectations. The sources of the (gain)/Ioss are as follows:

In addition, changes in the actuarial funding method, asset funding method and mortality assumptions lead

to a $4,055,043 decrease in unfunded liability and $416,886 increase in normal cost.

Individual Entry Age Normal actuarial cost method: Under thismethod, the actuarial present value of the projected benefits of eachindividual included in the valuation is allocated as a level percentageof the individual's projected compensation between entry age andassumed exit. The normal cost is the portion of the actuarial presentvalue allocated to the valuation year. For inactive members, theactuarial present value of projected benefits is equal to the PresentValue of Benefits. Inactive members do not have a normal cost. Theportion of this actuarial present value not provided for at thevaluation date by the sum of the actuarial value of the assets andactuarial present value of future normal costs is the unfundedactuarial accrued liability. The unfunded actuarial accrued liabilityrepresents the excess of the total actuarial accrued liability over thevaluation assets. .

FIRE PENSION SYSTEM

Report ofthe July 1,2011, Actuarial Valuation

I. Purpose and Summary

This report presents the results of our July 1,2011, actuarial valuation of the City of Newport, Rhode

Island Fire Pension System. The valuation was performed at the request of the City of Newport for

purposes of determining annual contribution levels for the City and to develop information regarding

actuarial liabilities required for the City's financial disclosures.

In summary, the recommended City contribution for the 2012-2013 fiscal year is $4,822,711, if.deposited in one lump sum on June 30, 2013. This contribution has been developed based on a 20-

year amortization of the unfunded actuarial liability. If the City would prefer to make monthly

contributious at the end of each month, it should contribute $388,705 ou July 31,2012 and on the

last day of each of the next eleven months.

The development of the valuation results is shown in Tables lA through 5 and is described in more detail

on the following pages.

The valuation reflects combined results for firefighters hired before and after July 1, 1984. It is our

understanding that prior to July 1, 1998, these groups were segregated with separate actuarial valuations

performed in alternate years.

IL Membership Data

The City furnished data for active and retired members as of July I, 2011. Although we did not audit this

data, we did review it for reasonableness and consistency. Table 2A provides a distribution by age and

service for active members. Table 2B provides a distribution by age and gender for retired members and

beneficiaries.

FIRE PENSION SYSTEM

Report ofthe July 1,2011, Actuarial Valuation

III. Plan Provisions

A summary of the principal benefit provisions recognized for purposes of the valuation is provided in

Table 4. This' summary reflects our understanding of the System's benefit provisions based upon

information provided to us by the City.

IV. Assets

The City provided us with the asset information used for purposes of this valuation. According to this

information, the market value of assets attributable to this plan was $32,832,334 as of July I, 2011,

compared to $27,072,586 as ofJuly 1,2010. For valuation purposes, assets are valued at market value. It is

our understanding that there are no contributions due for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011, which were

accrued as ofJune 30, 2011.

V. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions

The actuarial methods and assumptions employed in this valuation are outlined in Table 3. Primary

economic assumptions include 7.50% investment return (net of expenses) and 3.20% weighted-average

salary increases. The individual Entry Age Normal actuarial cost method has been used to determine

liabilities for funding purposes and to determine liabilities for financial disclosure purposes as required by

accounting standards. The mortality assumption uses mortality tables prescribed by the IRS for non­

governmental pension plans, as specified in IRS Regulation 1.430(h)(3)-I. The mortality tables are applied

on a fully generational basis, meaning that continued mortality improvement is reflected. The assumed rate

for Cost of Living Adjustments for those retired prior to August 26, 2011 is 3.00%. For those that retire on

or after August 26, 2011, the annual Cost of Living Adjustment will equal the Bureau of Labor Statistics

CPI for Northeast Urban Wage Earners but will not exceed 3.00% nor be lower than 0.50%.

FIRE PENSION SYSTEM

Report of the July 1,2011, Actuarial Valuatiou

VI. Funding Policy

It is our understanding that, beginning with the 1996-1997 fiscal year, the City adopted a funding policy

designed to include in its annual contribution an amount that reflects the amortization of the unfunded

actuarial accrued liability over a 30-year period. Beginning with the July 1, 2002 valuation, the 30-year

period was reduced by one year and is being stepped down by one year for each valuation going forward.

This policy is intended to satisfy the requirements of GASB Statement No. 27.

Our recommended contribution for 2012-2013 is developed as the 20-year contribution for the fiscal year

of the valuation (2011-2012), projected forward with expected growth in covered payroll.

VII. Analysis of Valuation Results

Valuation results are summarized in Table lA, including a comparison to prior valuation results. Assets

are currently about 40% of accrued liabilities.

The Plan realized an actuarial gain of approximately $5.6 million for the Plan year. Liabilities had a gain

of $2.1 million, while assets accounted for a $3.5 million gain. The Plan's gains and losses are illustrated

with more detail in Table lD.

In addition, several changes were implemented since the last valuation. The actuarial funding method was

changed from Projected Unit Credit to individual Entry Age Normal, and the asset method was changed

from 5 year smoothed actuarial value of assets to market value of assets. Also, the employee contribution

rate and retirement eligibility changed for all actives, and the cost of living adjustment was changed for

members retiring on or after August 26, 2011. In addition, the mortality assumptions were revised. The net

effect of these changes was a $2,784,952 decrease in unfunded liability and $183,706 increase in normal

cost.

The normal cost illustrated in Table IA reflects the long-term cost of the plan absent underfunding. This

cost is about 23.9% of current payroll.

This report fairly represents the actuarial position of the City of Newport Fire Pension System as of July I,

2011, in accordance with generally accepted actuarial principles applied consistently with the preceding

valuation. In our opinion, the actuarial assumptions used to compute actuarial accrued liability and normal

cost are reasonably related to plan experience and to reasonable expectations, and represent our best

estimate ofanticipated plan experience.

In perfonning the actuarial valuation, various assumptions are made regarding such factors as mortality,

retirement, disability and withdrawal rates as well as payroll, salary increases and investment returns. A

comparison of the current valuation and the prior valuation is made to determine how closely actual

experience co~esponded to anticipated occurrences. This analysis of the system provides insight into the

overall quality of the actuarial assumptions and helps explain any change in the annual appropriation.

During the last year, the total unfunded actuarial accrued liability decreased by 2.2% to $50,074,796. A

major cause for the decrease was that investment returns exceeded expectations. The sources of the

Honorable Mayor Walukand Members of the City Council43 BroadwayNewport RI 02840

Reflections on the Backlash to Maya Lin's Re-design for Queen Anne Square·-An Open Letter to the Newport Communityby Kyle F. Hence

Dear Honorable Mayor Waluk and Members of the City Council:

To this observer, the debate over Queen Anne Square has become a distraction from Newport's more pressing needs. To wit: healthylocal food, the hungry or 'food insecure' (ie. all of us) and homelessness.

Last month I organized the Food & Farming Forum at CCRI in Newport. As a long time Newporter with family roots stretching back tothose who joined Anne Hutchison's move to the Island, I was proud of my community's turnout and its understanding of the importanceof local food to our island's health, economic and otherwise.

Marilyn Warren, head of the Martin Luther King Center, spoke of the growing number of families turning to the Center's food pantry. (Up20+% monthly!) Fann Fresh RI folks then spoke with Marilyn about how they could help bring more fresh food to the needy. These areconversations worth having in our city; projects clearly deserving of financial support from those who can invest, give, or allocate, if youare a city councilor, .

The Maya Lin 'gift' in its many facets offers a disturbing refiection of the sometimes misdirected thinking and inflated influence of theminority who support it; if you will, the 1%. Here's Why:

First, from day one leading advocates for the redesign have used scare tactics referring to the purported threat posed by the homelesswho have slept within a small plot of bushes in the park. Instead of pushing to resolve homelessness, re-design advocates haveemployed the specter of the homeless to spook Newporters into supporting a famous designer's vision. Now I'm well accustomed to biggovernment employing fear to advance its agenda but a small local foundation doing so, pushing aside more essential local issues,short changes the city and insults our intelligence.

Second, the plan being championed by private parties includes the installation of two public surveillance cameras. We are being askedto roll out the red carpet for Big Brother just because Maya Lin is coming to town. Is crime really such a grave probiem in Queen AnneSquare that we need security cameras to keep an ever-present watch? Calls to the police department about problems in the Squareamount to .003% of all calls. I say 'no' to Big Brother cams in the heart of the waterfront.

Third through sixth: Opponents to the Maya Lin plan have put forward alternate, more sensible and frugal additions to the Park(inexpensive benches and lighting for example). Others have pointed to the unsuccessful Maya Lin installation in Ohio as a warning.And some have lucidly challenged the artistic and historic merit of a plan that replaces Doris Duke's vision with another that cuts downbeautiful mature trees she planted. There is also the issue of faux foundations in an historic district. Each has added a cogent voice inthis debate.

However, my larger concern is that a seemingly detached minority, in thrail to a famed designer, are distanced from more grave andreal local concerns and all too willing to stoke fears, and propose Big Brother solutions In the heart of downtown. Worse, they insist onpromoting a flawed 'monument' of mediocre merit as a money magnet. I've been asked insistently, "How can we say no, it's a gift?"

I am standing up to respectfully reject this gift. I object to the notion that big money or big names should trump the will of the people,thus denigrating their thinking about local priorities. If the well-intended donors truly want to serve our community I can think of threegrowing concerns among many others deserving of the level of funding and focus the Maya Lin project has engendered: First, localfood (a State economy 'beacon'). Second, hunger. Third, homelessness. In these we'll find true community restoration worthy of widersupport, adoption and justified passion! If just a fraction of the energy being invested in this controversy, not to mention the funding,were redirected, think of what good would comei

Page 89: Council Docket 12 14

If you agree please say so and let your feelings and thoughts be known. Help us shift to more urgent concerns. My hope is that our CityCouncilors will agree and vote to reject the Maya Lin plan. If they do not we may have to take to the streets to protect our park andrealign our priorities.

NOV - 7 2011Anne DuBoseJoslin

7 November 20ll

Kathy Silvia, Clerk of the City of Newport RI:

Due to the fact that RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL No. 2011·070 is based on nothingbut faulty assumptions, premises and presumptions, said RESOLUTION of the Councilshould be found non-binding and Invalid and should be struck null and void immediately.

On May 25, 20ll the City of Newport RESOLUTION of the Council No. 20ll-070 passed with anaffirmative vote by six (6) of seven (7) council persons: Walluk, Duncan, Leonard, McLaughlin, Neville,and Winthrop; Napohatano's name is omitted. Resting upon four assumptions, such RESOLUTIONconcerning Newport's Queen Anne Square Park and the Newport Restoration Foundation concludeswith a RESOLVED that "The city of Newport welcomes the opportunity to partner with the NRF/DDCFin executing this project and commits the city to work with them in support of its implementation." Dueto the numerous untruths contained within the statements outhned in the submitted RESOLUTION, itwould be unacceptable and illogical for the Council to continue9iio to support this proposal.

The first of the assumptions in the RESOLUTION states that Doris Duke was a champion for historicpreservation in the City of Newport, restoring more than eighty (80) colonial homes and founding the

Newport Restoration Foundation. Partially True. The houses were not all colonial homes. Eighty(80) homes, yes, however, a significant number (twenty or more) of the NRF houses are late 18th centuryor 19th century therefore cannot be considered "colonial."

Another assumption in the RESOLUTION is that in 1978, Doris Duke donated through the NRF theparcel of land known today as Queen Anne Square to the City of Newport for use as a public park.

Not True. Neither Doris Duke nor the NRF were ever the owners of the park locale. In 1978, Ms. Dukedid deed three properties to the Newport Redevelopment Agency, one on Thames Street and two onChurch Street, just over 6,000 square feet or 3% of the 1.75 acre park. In return, the Agency, whichowned the park land, deeded to Ms. Duke a Mill Street property of over 5,000 square feet and borderingQueen Ann Park; it is owned and leased by the NRF today. Only at the discretion of the Agency and withthe collaboration ofTrinity Church was Ms. Duke given full authority to create the park she desired;however, she had never "donated" any property. In 1981, it was the Redevelopment Agency that deededQueen Anne Square (Queen Ann Park) to the City, years after Duke had completed her redesign effort.

,The May 25, 20ll RESOLUTION also states that the NRF with its newly created Doris Duke MonumentFoundation (DDMF) worked with artist Maya lin and landscape designer Edwina VonGal to create adesign proposal for a monument to Doris Duke and historic preservation with related landscape design.

Not True. At this writing, neither the written proposal nor landscape schematic has been delivered tothe city residents, city manager or city solicitor for analysis. It seems unreasonable that the City Councilwould pass a RESOLUTION whereby not one document or desigo was submitted in advance for Councilstudy (an artistic rendering is insufficient). The City Council could not possibly know the intentions ofthe NRF if the NRF is incapable ofproducing the proper materials to support their claims. The CouncilRESOLUTION vote was impulsive, irresponsible and without concern for its constituents.

Page 91: Council Docket 12 14

During the past six months, the residents of the City have had nothing to see or read so that they may askquestions and make appropriate comments; the plans have been held hostage thereby eliminaring thenecessary input from the public. City Council members have held only one open workshop, in mid­August, which was just another opportunity for the NRF to pontificate the benefits of their platform. Atthis event the executive director, Peiter Roos, did not present one piece of tangible evidence relating tothe design proposal; his sixty (60) presentations have been no more than supposition and fabrication.

The RESOLUTION further states that the NRF and its Monument Committee offers to "Install andmaintain the park based on similar public-private partnerships such as the City and Friends of BallardPark, where a private non-profit associated with the original donations of land maintain an interest in

improvements and maintenance of a specific City park." Not True. Carol Ballard was not "associated"with the land she bequeathed to Newport in 1990, she owned all of it. And as previous title-holder andgenerous benefactor, she had every justification to form a board, Friends of Ballard Park, to protectagainst any future alterations of her nature preserve. Never owning any of the city park acreage exceptfor one residence, Doris Duke had no property to give and when she completed her design effort, her partof the project was over. The Redevelopment Agency, not the NRF, gifted the park to the people. TheNRF has invented a non-existent relationship between Duke and Queen Anne Square. After thirty (30)years with no association to the park whatsoever, it is absurd to allow the NRF trustees to seize redesignand management control over a city-owned park based on a RESOLUTION filled with falsehood. TheCity of Newport and its Council must terminate its previous resolve to support the NRF in its proposal.

Due to the fact that RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL No. 2011-070 is based on nothingbut faulty assumptions, premises and presumptions, said RESOLUTION of the Councilshould be found non-binding and invalid and should be struck null and void immediately.

Sincerely, .

Dear Mayor and City Council Members,

We trust due process for the Public will be executed by the City Council, and the Plansand Specs will be available at least one week in advance of the Public Workshop, andyou provide a Third Party to conduct a "Workshop Like Forum" on December 7Th, 2011.Anything less than that would be a compromise on behalf of the City of Newport.

Having a presentation by the NRF is welcome, but using a neutral moderator to field andanswer questions is more in line with the Public process and the perception of a fair andjust Workshop.

The Facts Regarding Crime in Newport's Queen Anne Square

Some City Council Members justify that the installation of the proposed NewportRestoration Foundation (NRF) Maya Lin redesign of Queen Anne Square (QAS) willreduce crime.

No one can accurately predict the outcome.

I requested a copy of the same study document the Council received from theNewport Police Department. It prOVided a breakdown of the crimes and calls to QASover the period of 01/01/2006 to 10-22/20110.

Findings:

There were 225 Police Service Calls (dispatches) to QAS over 58 months.Dispatches only refer to the response of the Police to QAS to inquire about apotential incident. Only 122 calls of those dispatched resulted in Verified QASincidents. Approximately 80% of those calls related to disorderly conduct, simpleassault, traffic, and alcohol possession. Most of those calls were non-punishablecrimes.

Over the 58 month period the Verified Incidents breakdown as follows:

(3) Robbery

(14) Simple Assault

(1) Intimidation

(2) All other Larceny

(2) Destruction/DamagejVandalism

(5) Drug/Narcotic Violation

(1) Weapon Law Violation

(27) Disorderly Conduct

(12) Liquor Law Violation

(43) All Other Offenses

(12) Traffic, Town By-Law Offenses

The plan to replace existing Gas Lighting with electric lights and lighting within theFoundations with tables and chairs to hang out, QAS will invite a major increase infolks gatherings after bar closings. The accompanying noise, litter, property

Page 94: Council Docket 12 14

defacement and possible altercations, all of which is minimal without the Maya Lindesigned additives will increase. Like moths attracted to lights, the bar flies willfind their way into lighted Ghost Foundations as havens, which currently do notexist in QASj.

If the Park officially closes at 9:00p, how many additional Tax Dollars will beneeded in the future to patrol and respond, monitor and control Police SurveillanceCameras in QAS when the NRF revamping is completed? We are told the LinDesign comes with no additional cost to Tax Payers!

In conclusion, over the Study Period conducted there were 186,000 total PoliceService Calls in the entire City of Newport. QAS represented only.0012% of allthose calls, and less than 50% of those calls or .0006% were Verified Incidents.

The insignificant, seemingly benign numbers that the Council is using to justify adrastic change to the existing QAS to reduce crime has little or no merit, as doesthe "we can't refuse a "Gift" argument", or "the Park needs improvement."

It is unacceptable to change anything when the only alternative is Maya Lin's designwhich has the qualities of a magnet for crime and undesirable activities.

RE: 5 LEGAL REASONS WHY MAYA LIN PLAN SHOULD NOT GO FORWARDDec. 3,2011Dear Mayor Waluk, City Councilors - and City Solicitor,I hope you will not vote for this project, and encourage the rest of the city council to let it go, because theprocess was so flawed and undemocratic. The Maya Lin plan is like someone's putting a large and expensivemonumentin your front yard - without asking you first!

The people were not involved in the beginning of the redo of this city park as they should havebeen. It doesn't matter that it's a gift because most say they don't want it, or they're indifferent.It's also not what it costs, but what the maintenance will likely be - and whether people willenjoy this park more. Adding a few sensitively placed benches and improving the lightingwould probably do the job just fine, and the city could easily afford it. A very publicconservancy could help raise extra funds for maintenance and have fun and keep the parksvisible. But the city should not give over authority for administering the park to the NRF oranyone else. Please read the 5 legal reasons, below - Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,Mary Shepard

LEGAL REASONS TO VOTE NO ON MAYA LIN CONCEPT or stop theproject

Environmental concerns should not allow construction before testing the site

1. CONTAMINATION CONCERNS: RI Dept. of Environmental Managementpoints out need for prior exploring possible toxins in soil due to dry cleaningplant having been on the site. This letter from Joseph Martella, Senior Engineer,RI DEM was received in the Newport city manager's and mayor's offices Nov.21,2011.

Possible Procedural violations

2. The May 25, 2011 Newport City Council resolution may have been illegalin its timing: it "committed" the councilors to the plan way before theirconstituents had figured out what was happening or could weigh in theiropinions. The Newport Daily News had only annonnced the Maya Lin plan theweek before.

1

Page 96: Council Docket 12 14

3. The 1981 deed between the Newport Redevelopment Agency and the city waslike a modern day easement which limited future changes to the park:

Clearly major intrusions such as these large foundations are not part oftheintent or are they on the deed's list of allowed changes.

The document mentions the following restrictions: ."...shall not be used forcommercial activity of any kind and that no building of structure temporary orpermanent shall be erected there-on. The proceeding restrictions shall includetents, booths, stages and display stands, but shall not prohibit the erection orinstallation of statues, monuments, fountains, park benches, drinking fountains,trash receptacles or other street furniture normally found in public parks."

Calling the Maya Lin foundations, a major redo of the park, a "monument" is astretch.

4. Park is city owned land and public process should be abided by early on withany major reconfiguration. Public process means choices and communityinvolvement - and suggests a competition. It means the people need to have theirvoices heard - from the beginning of the process. In this case, the designer washired almost a year before the people knew about this plan.

5. Neither the people nor the council had the plan's specifications, its details, asof Dec. I, 20II, so how can they vote on it? Only on Dec. 2, 20 II the were thefinal specifications in booklet form from Maya Lin's office available in the cityclerk's office. No plans had been sent to the public libraries at that time. Thepeople need at least 6 weeks and ample publicity as to where they can view thesemore exact and "final" plans, so they can see and understand what they may begetting. A small model at the Newport Public Library since late October is vagueand insufficient.

Let's not allow special interests to prevail over the will o/the people, as they sometimes do onthe nationalleve!! Councilors need to represent their constituents, and consider the largenumbers o/constituents who voiced concerns against the plan and not be undu~v influenced bythoughts ofcampaign donations expectedfrom the wealthy group in favor ofthis Maya Lin parkplan. They need to remember it's the quantity o./votes that will determine their reelection, notthe size ofthe campaign chest. Constituents 'who feel they were not heard will likely not re-electsuch councilors.

Dear Mayor, Councilors, and City Departments,

A Message to All:The placement ofPUBLIC ART in PUBLIC SPACES has been shown to be more controversial the smaller the community.Public art is an important part of Newport's culture.In the case of Queen Anne Square, the general public was left entirely out of the process until the city had already resolved tomove forward with this particular plan. It is each individual's right to an opinion to like this plan or not or to be indifferent. Theonly real option for input from the public has been to suggest minor changes to this plan and only this plan.Research and open debate over the following items are not an option for the people ofNewport as the city has no process inplace.These items include the placement of a particular work of art and/or monument, the location, the renovation of an entire publicpark, history of the park and its value and significance, placement of an addition public figure's name on the park andsiguificance, the moving of existing monuments, desire of the community to foster local talent through competition, public artas enhancement to a particular location or as a destination, impact on history, economic impact, etc. All these items and morewould be reasonable to consider.

Whatever the outcome of the upcoming vote on Queen Anne Square-- the NRF's Maya Lin plan or an alternative ofimprovements--all the people of Newport should be happy that awareness was raised. It underscores the need to establish a clearpublic process and a thoughtful commission within the city hall. A process that can no longer be neglected. A process that willembrace the future ofpublic art in Newport balanced with our need as a city to protect our historic parks.

Merry Christmas to one and all, Gigi >3>3>3Love our Newport Flag! Love Will Conquer All!

The Honorable Mayor Stephen C. Waluk& Honorable Members of the City CouncilCity Hall43 BroadwayNewport Rl 02840

Dear Mayor Waluk and Councilors,

There are two articles I would like you to consider before your vote. The first is an essay by a graduatestudent, Julie M. Williams at the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University who wrote a piece on the life andphilanthropic works of Miss Doris Duke. http://learningtogive.orglpapers/paper190.html

The second item is the 2010 NRF book: Extraordinary Vision, Doris Duke and the Newport RestorationFoundation, by Pieter Roos, Bruce MacLeish, and Robert Foley. Pages 9 and 10 describe and show thecreation of Queen Anne Square.http://www.newportrestoration.orgjshop/books

The NRF today has created a new non-profit, the Doris Duke Monument Foundation whose sole purposeis to honor Miss Duke by raising over $3.5 million dollars to renovate, partially maintain and administer thelandmark park she created for the people ofNewport. No one in Newport would debate the great contributionthe late Miss Duke made to Newport's status as the city with the greatest number ofrestored colonial homes inAmerica.

The irony is: the very foundation Miss Duke created and the local organizations likewise supporting thisrenovation use the words historical, restoration, and preservation to describe their own missions whilst they planand/or support the removal ofDoris Duke's original design, the antithesis of what the historic-minded shouldprotect and cherish.

It's hard to believe acceptance ofthe NRF proposal is how the city of Newport may choose to honor herand the living history which is Queen Anne Square. I hope you take a few minutes to read and consider thesetwo items in your decision.

I urge you to vote no on the proposal of the NRF to renovate Queen Anne Square with a Maya Lindesign. I also urge the council to consider options for historic restoration, improvements and preservation, theprinciples Newport so visibly embraces today.

Please consider this letter as notice of a claim that I amfiling against the City of Newport.

On October 27, 2011 at approximately 9:00 AM I wasproceeding south of Charles St. near the intersection atWashington Square (near the entrance to Ocean Coffee Roasters),when the bottom of my car struck a water main cover that waslocated above the surface of the roadway. As a result of thismy automobile was damaged and it is being repaired at present atViti Mercedes in Tiverton.

I am enclosing photos of the site that were takenimmediately following the accident showing the cover that wasactually pulled off when my automobile struck it.

On Friday, October 28, 2011 I was walking at the samelocation and another vehicle struck the same cover damaging thebottom of the car. I notified the police at that time andrepairs were made to the surface. A photo showing the remedialwork is also enclosed.

I will forward along a copy of any invoice I receJ.ve fromViti as soon as the repairs are completed.

Sincerely,

Richard P. D'Addario

To Whom It May Concern:

I, John Caminiti, owner of Long Wharf Seafood, Inc. am requesting reimbursement from theCity of Newport for a bill from R.J Cawley Contracting, Inc in the amount of $7800. The scopeof the work included repairing damage done to Long Wharfs sewer connection when the Citywas working on the road and sewer lines in front of my business. R.J Cawley Contracting, Inc.was called to repair the sewer line in the road, which is owned by the City ofNewport, includingexcavating and patching the line running into Long Wharf Seafood, Inc.

In addition to the bill from RJ. Cawley, I am also requesting reimbursement for a bill from alsoGuaranteed Rooter Service in the amount of $750. I had called Guaranteed Rooter Service priorto calling RJ. Cawley Contracting, Inc. because of the backup of the sewer into the Long WharfSeafood building. Guaranteed Rooter Service was able to trace the backup to the street lineswhich are city property and are therefore the city's responsibility to fix.

To Whom It May Concern:

On Nov 10, 2011, my daughter upon entering the Newport Bridge at night hit a largepothole and broke her right front rim. This rim was replaced ata cost of $148.68.The problem is that it is only a temporary solution because the rim does NOT matchthe other 3. This would constitute another $450.00 to complete. Enclosed are thebill from Tire Pro in NK and the police report. I hope this can be resolved. The totalshould be $600.00 since the towing is covered by my insurance policy. Please let meknow that you received this and are processing it.

Thank you,

• An initial presentation to the City Council of a conceptual design for the project, led byPieter Roos, at which time an initial set of drawings and plans were delivered to the City

• A number of public discussions organized by Pieter Roos to receive public commentsand input on the proposed design and details

• Periodic updates to the City of amendments to the initial plans, as products of the publicdiscussions

• Submission of a revised set of plans reflecting the collective changes and providingadditional detail

The project documents have been distributed to appropriate City Departments for review andcomment. Referencing a typical construction project plan review, the staff has commented onthe documents received. The comments and recommendations are summarized herein. Thestaff review and recommendations are predicated on the following assumptions:

• The total cost of preliminary and final engineering design for the project is borne by theDDMF

• The total cost of project construction is borne by the DDMF• The project includes a provision to establish a restricted account for the perpetual

maintenance of the park, with the following conditionso The maintenance fund will be established at the threshold level of $500,000, (or

more pending availability of additional unused project funds)o The costs assumed by the fund will be used only for the maintenance,

improvements and modifications to the park as they relate to this project; otherpreexisting maintenance and improvement costs will continue to be borne by theCity (Eg. Lawn grooming)

o A three-person Committee established by the DDMF will manage the use of themaintenance account

o Among the predetermined on-going expenses to be borne by the maintenanceaccount are: electrical cost of lighting, water for fountains, maintenance ofplantings, maintenance of structures, monuments, cleaning/ removal of graffiti,

Page 155: Council Docket 12 14

general cleaning of site! trash; other general maintenance and repairs related tothe project installations and modifications

o The City staff will assume the responsibility for the grooming of trees, lawnmaintenance, trimmings, etc.

o Other required repairs and maintenance work will be outsourced as determinedby the Committee

• The costs for any soil testing and associated remediation will follow the prescriptionoutlined in the current proposed contract between the City and DDMF

Given the assumptions as cited herein and the documents provided by the DDMF for review,the staff comments and recommendations are as follows:

• Public Safetv: The Police Department has an established camera system in thebusiness district for the general monitoring of vehicle and pedestrian traffic. The additionof one or two cameras focused on Queen Anne Square would provide a beneficial pro­active resource to the Police Department, especially in times of heavy pedestrian traffic,such as when bars are closing. The new cameras could be added to the existing policenetwork. The purchase, installation, and maintenance will be borne by the project. Anamortized rate for maintenance of these specific cameras would be determined as aportion of the systems annual maintenance cost. The Police Department considers thisprovision to be of value to the City at no additional cost to the Police budget. Otherwise,the Police Department has not identified any inherent public safety risks associated withthe project design.

• Public Services: The provision for maintenance of additions and modifications to thepark are included in the cost project maintenance fund. The Public Services Departmentwould exercise plan review of the project detail as the construction drawings are refined.Specific areas of interest would include ADA accessibility, the slope and contour ofwalking surfaces, and other details affecting safety and liability issues. As the projecthas not yet evolved to provide this level of detail the Public Services engineers will workwith the project designers to ensure that the City's safety objectives are met. Also, asproject details evolve, the Public Services Department will comment on materials usedin construction to ensure that maintenance costs and procedures are efficient andpractical in design and workmanship. Among the project elements requiring greaterdetail are:

o Materials and construction detail for walkways. As the plan evolves, the specificwalkway material, edging, and subsurface should be provided for staff review; itis understood that recent changes include the addition of bluestone pavers

o Cornerstones, curbing, and access points to the park: need to be detailed;identify resetting of uneven or settled sections of curbing and corner posts

• Inspections: The Building Inspector has determined that the project elements requiringreview for permitting are: electrical lighting, plumbing connections for the water table,and structural plans for the chimney. These items will be reviewed and permitted as iscustomarily done with other construction projects. The project drawings are sUfficientlyclear to indicate that the foundations as shown are merely stone walls erected on apatio-type floor, and therefore not categorized as structural for purposes of review andpermitting. The Inspectors will work with the contractors as the project details arerefined to issue review the plans and issue permits as required.

Page 156: Council Docket 12 14

• Landscaping: Several changes to the original plan are evident in the modified drawingsand related discussions including: generally reducing the caliper of new planting(diameter of the trunks of new trees), limiting the number of existing trees to beremoved, and placement of new trees. More detail is needed on the specific size andcaliper of trees to be added, and the species of new trees. Additional detail is neededon tree-up site lighting and proposed benches. Lighting, benches, and related amenitiesneed to be durable in construction and tolerant of heavy use. For purposes of generalmaintenance and ensuring the long-term health of plantings, more detail on the treeplan should be provided.

• Utilities: The Utilities Director has indicated a need for greater detail for the water supplyand for the drainage of storm water runoff. An articulation of the water supply sourceand location will be needed. Also, as required by our RIPDES permit a Storm WaterManagement Plan will be required. Staff is examining records to determine existingconnections to storm drains and sewer lines. Once determined, a rechanneling of stormwater runoff may be necessary. Utilities staff will communicate with project designengineers to ensure that proper protocols are followed with respect to installation of aninlet water supply and with discharge issues related to drainage and storm water runoff.It is understood that Phase 1 research for pollutants has been authorized by the DDMF.Information gained from the research and documentation phase will determine whetheror not there is a need for Phase 2 follow-up soil testing. The results of the soil testingwould determine if a Phase 3 remediation plan is necessary.

• General Conditions: Throughout the project review process the staff has examined theproposal with respect to the practicality of the components. Based on staff reviewseveral changes to the original plan have been made including:

o The original conception of the chimney with a working fireplace has been revisedto eliminate the functioning fireplace

o New tree size has been generally reduced in consideration of the requirements toensure the survival on new plantings

o Walkway surface material has been modified to add stability and durability

Discussions and review have focused on the perceived use of the park. Given the influx ofvisitors to the downtown district, varying populations that may be in the park at different timesof day, review of the current plans and drawings consider practical maintenance, reducing risk,and maintaining the park in attractive and safe condition as a public attraction. In addition tocomments and recommendations made to date, it is recommended that the stacking chairs beremoved from the plan. The inclusion of chairs as an amenity for a gathering place isunderstood, but the necessity of monitoring and controlling portable items like chairs in anopen-air public park is not practical. Experience has shown that durable, fixed-positionbenches, or chairs of a similar stable fixed design would be more practical.

In summary, the collective staff review considers the proposed plan to be manageable. SUbjectto continuing review as the project details are developed, the staff will work with the designengineers and construction contractor to ensure a complete understanding of the standards forcompliance with municipal code requirements, compliance with state regulatory guidelines,and conditions and details cited in the final approved stamped plan.

RECOMMENDATION:R.iconWendawaidof the contract for the provision of parking Il\eter operation and management services to the lowestqualified bidder, Central Parkillg of Providence, RI. Tlte recommendation includes a change in Ordinance 10.20.210lv!et~r Charges, to increase the parking meter rate by twenty five cents per hour. This would give the user 12 minutes for!w~nty five cents verses the present rate of 15 minutes for twenty five cents. The Parking Meter Management award isfor a three (3) year period, with two (2), one (1) year options at the City's discretion. For the first three (3) years theaJ)llual rates are fixed with a yearly cost of $194,412.50 which is based on 449 metered parking spaces. This rate willcontjnue for three (3) years and in the fourth and fifth year, will decrease each year to $186,369.50, $171,432.50respectively.

Dear Mr. Bronk:

Alignment with State and Local Planning Goals

www.NewportMansions.orR

While much has been preserved, there have been significant areas of losswith the destruction ofsuch estates as Stone Villa, Chetwode, and VillaRosa along with their accompanying enclosures. Many of the BellevueAvenue gates, etc., are not protected under the present Historic DistrictOrdinance. A comprehensive survey is necessary to document whatremains before further losses occur.

This survey project aligns with the Rhode Island Historical Preservation &Heritage Commission's State Historic Preservation Plan (2002) GoalOne: Locate, identify, and evaluate all of Rhode Island's historicresources. Policies under this goal include: "[refining] our understandingofhistorical significance to include a wider variety ofproperties ...Previous surveys sometimes collected only a limited amount ofinformation about individual properties; these gaps should be filled in. (p.27; emphasis ours).

Paige BronkDirector ofPlanning, Zoning, Development and InspectionCity ofNewport43 BroadwayNewport, Rl 02840

The Preservation Society ofNewport County would like to act on behalfof the Certified Local Government as subgrantee to apply for; administer,and directly receive funds from a Rhode Island Historical Preservation &Heritage Commission CLG grant to support a survey of the historic gates,fences, walls and posts of Bellevue Avenue. The RlHPHC has previouslyexpressed strong interest in seeing this project funded.

Dating from the mid-19th to the early-20th centuries, the gates, fences,walls, and posts ofBellevue Avenue represent the work ofa number ofprominent American architects and a variety of historic revival styles,construction methods, and materials. They are the first elements of theAvenue an individual encounters, and serve as a character-defining.framework for the neighborhood.

RIHPHC Funding Priorities for FY2012 include: Identification/evaluation of Historic Resourcespart I: surveys, especially of resources not yet evaluated.

This project also aligns with the City of Newport's Comprehensive Land Use Plan (2003).Relevant goals from the plan include:

• Goa12B: Preserve Newport's historic and archaeological resources and theirsetting. (p. 5-33)

• Goal 2D: Protect historic landscapes, streetscapes, open space and scenic vistas. (p.5-34; emphasis ours)

Further stressing the need for historic surveys that address information gaps, the City of Newportplan states:

Because the documentation of Newport's historical resources will also providejustification for regulations enacted in their defense, another step toward protectingNewport's historic resources will be to increase the documentation for those areas inwhich more information is needed. The areas in particular need of moredocumentation are the Ocean Drive, Bellevue, and Broadway/Newport North districtswhich contain significant natural and architectural resources. (p. 5-25; emphases ours)

Organizational Capacity

This survey project aligns with the mission of the Preservation Society ofNewport County topreserve and protect the best ofNewport County's architectural, artistic, cultural, and socialheritage. We are Rhode Island's largest cultural organization and accredited by the AmericanAssociation of Museums in recognition of our professional operation, adherence to bestpractices, and commitment to improvement and public service.

Project Description

Project Need

Historic designed-landscape features along the edges of properties in Newport are important,community-character-defining elements found in many of the city's neighborhoods. Theirsignificance has been largely overlooked in surveys of historic resources, including those forhistoric buildings and historic landscapes. This preliminary survey will identify significant,representative historic street-edge designed-landscape features worthy of protection and beginthe assessment needed for effective preservation planning for them.

Resources Included in Survey

A consultant who meets the professional standards detailed in 36 CFR Part 61 will be selectedthrough a request-for-proposal process to conduct a survey of selected significant designedlandscape features at or near the street line ofproperties within the project areas, including butnot necessarily limited to fences, walls, gates, bollards, paving, and hedgerows. The survey willinclude no more than 200 properties in the identified survey areas. Determination ofproperties tobe included in the survey will be made jointly by the consultant and Rhode Island HistoricalPreservation & Heritage Commission staff. The Preservation Society ofNewport County(PSNC) will act on the CLG's behalf as subgrantee and will administer the subgrant and willreceive funds directly from the Rhode Island Historical Preservation & Heritage Commission.

Project Areas

Project areas have been identified by applying two criteria: (I) areas where historic street-edgedesigned-landscape features exist in abundance and define the neighborhood's character and (2)

3

Page 237: Council Docket 12 14

areas where existing documentation of historic street-edge designed-landscape features isinadequate. The two areas that meet both criteria are:

1. The area bounded north by Memorial Boulevard, east and west by back lot lines ofBellevue Avenue from Memorial Boulevard to Narragansett Avenue, north by back lotlines of Narragansett Avenue from Bellevue to Rhode Island Sound, east by Rhode IslandSound, east and south by Rhode Island Sound, and west by Coggeshall Avenue andSpring Street.

2. The area bounded north by Van Zandt Avenue, east by railroad right of way andAmerica's Cup Boulevard, south by Goat Island Connector, and west by NewportHarbor.

Resource Documentation

Resources will be photographed and described on a historic-data survey sheet developedspecifically for this survey by the Rhode Island Historical Preservation & Heritage Commission.Upon completion of field work, research will be conducted to determine date of construction anddesigner andlor builder, when known. From the field work and research, information will begathered into an inventory that describes and preliminarily evaluates each property.

Work Products

Work products include survey sheets, digital photographs, and a narrative inventory. Written andvisual documentation must be adequately detailed to facilitate informed property-managementdecisions by project reviewers, such as building-inspection officials, historic-district-commissionstaff and members, and state-historic-preservation-office staff and commissioners.

disturbing it. Failure by the Contractor to give written notice and make the claim as

provided by this Subparagraph 12(c) shall constitute a waiver by the Contractor of

RECOMMENDATION:

Mayor Stephen C. Waluk & Mem~0!Jlte City CouncilEdward F. Lavallee, City ManageVrDecember 7, 2011Rhode Island League of Cities and Towns (RILOCAT) - Municipal AggregateEnergy Supply Electricity ContractWilliam R. Riccio, Jr., PE, Public Services Director

The Department of Pnblic Services recommends approval of the Rhode Island League of Cities and Towns MunicipalAggregate Electricity Supply three (3) year agreement with Direct Energy Business, LLC (aka Direct Energy) forpurposes of providing that portion of the electric bills associated with electricity supply to all municipal facilities in theCity ofNewport. This action is eligible for approval under RIGL 45-55-13.2.

BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:

The current municipal aggregate electricity supply agreement that the City of Newport has with Nextera Energy Services(via the RI League of Cities and Towns) will expire in December, 2011. The Rhode Island League of Cities and Townsbegan a 7 month selection process (chronology attached) in order to secure a successor power supply agreement forRhode Island Energy Aggregate Program members. The RILOCT solicited proposals from energy suppliers on behalf ofits members in order to provide a mechanism for municipalities to obtain the most cost effective rate (through bulkpricing) associated with the supply component of their electricity bills. City staff met with Direct Energy representativesori October 18, 2011 and were then forwarded pricing schedules on November 6, 2011 for a 3 year fixed price program.Participation allows for an approximate 30% reduction in the existing supply rate from its current value of $0.09463 perkwh. Since actnal rates fluctuate, the following are representative of potential proposed rates over the 3 year period thatwere prepared at the time of document preparation: year 1 (0.0657) year 2 (0.0666) year 3 (0.0676.) The supply rate isone portion of the overall rate with the remaining portion coming from the delivery rate as imposed by National Gridthrough the Public Utilities Commission. Current market commodity trends indicate that pricing is at a roughly 7-8 yearmarket low.

The Fire Department recommends that the Council authorize the purchase of a new Sparky Fire Safety Robot, theAnimated Sparky the Fire Dog Costume, (4) ZVW 515 Smoke Makers, and the required Zero Visibility MAX SmokeFluid in the total amouut of $19,299.50. These items would be used locally and regionally to deliver Fire Preveutionpresentations to our communities.

BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:

The regional Fire Safety Trailer and the Sparky Fire Safety Robot purchased through the 2003 AFG Graut are no longerin service, and beyond repair. Without these items our ability to maintain our Fire Prevention program is greatlydiminished. The Sparky Fire Safety Robot, costume and accessories are a sole source purchase and the associateddocumentation from Robotronics is attached. Robotronics has provided a quote in the amount of $14,822.50; quoteswere obtained for the associated smoke equipment and the low bid price is $4,477.00, resulting in a total cost of$19,299.50.

On behalf of the Regional Grant partners (Newport, Middletown, Portsmouth, and Little Compton) I submitted a requestto FEMA to expend a portion of the excess 2009 AFG funds for the above mentioned items and it was approved. Thecost to the City would be $964.98.

RE: Petition for Designation of Residential Parking Street

Petition for 24 Hour Restricted Parking for School Street between Church Street and MaryStreet.

There are twelve signatures for residents of School Street. There are two tenants, Selina Muralloat 29 School and Susan Lutes at 40 School Street. Attached is a lease for Ms. Murallo and anelectric bill for Ms. Lutes.

I have renumbered the page connecting spouses who both signed to show them as one household.One signer has moved. I have deleted him from the list. (#6)

Mr. Brian Delaney signed on a copy of a petition I had left at his condo informing him oftheeffort It was signed in my presence and it is attached.

There is a change in ownership for 49 School Street. It is no longer owned by Poste Restante,Inc. The current owners are Gilbert C. Brunnhoeffer and Marilyn G. McCarthy. This propertyis incorrectly listed as a two family resident. It is single family.

Two years ago, a petition was submitted for all of School Street, which had some irregularities.We were told by City Council to resubmit. We believe we have met all the criteria for therequest. Of 15 residents, we have II signatures. Two units at 41 School are not occupied at thistime.

RECOMMENDATION:

Mayor Stephen C. Walnk & City Co~ncilMembersEdward F. Lavallee, City Managerr:-l~30 November 2011 'f;-Gutter Replacement Project Harbor Center (Newport Armory)William R. Riccio, Jr., PE, Public Services Director

The Department of Public Services recommends approval of contract 12-024, to Alhambra Building Company, Inc., inthe amount of $78,800.00 to furnish and install new copper gUllers, downspouts and flashing for the Harbor CenterDrill Hall (Newport Armory).

BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:

Work on the transient boater facility had been temporarily silspended resultant of drainage issues discovered upondemolition and excavation of the beach level. Subsequent to the findings and recommendations of the engineercontracted to determine root causes and to develop solutions to drainage concerns at the Harbor Center, the engineer'sanalysis identified that the lack of functioning gullers significantly contributes to stormwater infiltration into thebasement of the Harbor Center. In order to mitigate this, City staff prepared a bid package for the replacement of theassociated gUllers, downspouts and flashing associated with the rooftop drainage system. This new installation willcorrect the existing condition and will prevent rainwater from spilling directly from the roof, infiltrating below thefoundation and seeping into the basement level of the armory. The funding necessary to cover this work is included inthe previously approved transient boater facility grant.

Contractor shall plan on weather shutdown period based upon these dates unless otherwise

directed by the City. The weather shutdown dates are subject to change depending on

weather shutdown period due to weather, environmental or other conditions, which preclude

the work from being executed in accordance with these documents.

an opportunity to observe such condition prior to disturbing it. Failure by the Contractor to

give written notice and make the claim as provided by this Subparagraph 15 (c) shall constitute

a waiver by the Contractor of any rights arising out of or relating to such concealed and

unknown condition.

Mayor Stephen C. Waluk & Mem~e of the City ConncilEdward F. Lavallee, City Manage __-December 7,2011 '-'Transfer of Funds-Amendment to Roadway Improvement Contract-Waites WharfWilliam R. Riccio, Jr., PE, Public Services Director

The Department of Public Services recommends amending the existing contract with Narragansett Improvement. Co. inthe amount of $20,316.32 by transferring unexpended funds from the completed 20IIchip seal program to the 2011resurfacing program for purposes of completing roadway repairs in anticipation of the America's Cup and Tall Shipevents in 2012.

BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:

Waites Wharf is a targeted location/venue for the proposed Tall Ship event to be held in the City of Newport in earlyJuly 2012. Due to its existing condition, roadway repairs were found to be necessary; however, it was determined thatNational Grid would need to install a new gas main to perform the work. National Grid's cooperation in advancing thiswork along with favorable weather conditions has allowed an adequate window to complete the work prior to the shutdown of the construction season. Although adequate funds were not available in the existing roadway improvementcontract account to complete the entire roadway, unused appropriated funds remain in the City's chip seal programaccount in the amount of$20,316.32 which can be utilized toward this roadway's completion.

Mayor Stephen C. Walnk & Memi;fpfthe City CouncilEdward F. Lavallee, City ManageDecember I, 2011Waste Management Transfer Station Use AgreementWilliam R. Riccio, Jr., PE, Director of Public Services

RECOMMENDATION:The Department ofPublic Services recommends approval of an 18 month Waste Transfer Station Use Agreement withWaste Management. The agreement period will be from January 1,2012 to June 30, 2013.

BACKGR.OUND AND FINDINGS:The existing transfer station use agreement between Waste Management and the City of Newport requires updating. Thepurpose of this agreement is to establish a set of guidelines for residents to deliver household refuse, bulky waste andappliances as well as recyclables and yard waste to the transfer station. Waste Management receives, loads and transfersthe materials to the Central Landfill under the existing service contract with the City of Newport.

Under this program, residential property owners can bring two loads of trash material, up to 500 pounds for each, twiceper fiscal year, free of charge. The Residential property owners show a water or tax bill to show proof of residentialproperty ownership to the transfer station attendant. The transfer station attendant keeps track of usage by using a tax rollspreadsheet provided by the Tax Assessor's office. Residential property owners must also provide a driver's license orlegal proof of identity. The fee for this service to the City will remain at $15.00 per ton until June 30, 2012 and increaseto $25.00 per ton from July I, 2012 until June 30, 2013 under the agreement. The current rate of $15.00 has been inplace since 2003. In FYIO, the city paid for 198.1 tons at a cost of $2,971.50 and in FYll, paid for 133.1 tons at a costof $1,996.50. Based on this data, the estimated program cost will be approximately $3,000.00 in FYI2 and $5,500.00 inFY13, due to the increased rate of$25/ton.

Newport property owners and residents find benefit in the transfer station program, despite the current extensivecurbside collection program. This prograru is utilized during yard cleanups where residents might have more bags thanallotted in one week, when they are moving and throwing away a large amount of material, cleaning out their basementor attic, or when doing home renovation projects themselves. In addition to the two trips provided through this program,Newport residents will be allowed to use Waste Management Inc.'s transfer station at a 30% discounted rate. Thecurrent tip fee for trash and construction debris is $138.00 per ton with a minimum load weight of 1,000lbs, whichequates to a minimum charge of $48.30 with the 30% discount. Newport residents can also bring mixed recyclables,paper and cardboard, free of charge. This is a great benefit to the residents that live in dwellings with over 8 units thatcannot recycle through the residential prograru and to the many people that move to Newport and have large amounts ofcardboard and packing paper to recycle.

RECOMMENDATION:

Mayor Stephen C. Waluk & Meitfthe City CouncilEdward F. Lavallee, City Manage .-.December 6, 2011 .Parking Ticket Management - Complus Contract Extension

Extend the contract with the current vendor for management of the City's parking ticket issuance system for anadditional six months

BACKGROUND AND FINDINGS:

The City outsources the compnterized management of the parking ticket issuance and payment system. The currentvendor, Complus Data Innovations, has been the City's ontsource agent for this service for the past twenty years. Thecurrent multi-year agreement is scheduled to expire in June 2012. Typically, it is beneficial to the City to align contractdates with the fiscal year cycle. However, in this case it is in the City's best interest not to interrupt the operation andmanagement of the ticket system in the middle of the sunnner season. During this time the majority of ticket issuanceoccurs. To solicit competitive proposals that could result in a change of vendors during this season would create a majorimpairment to the City's operation. The parking ticket management incorporates an integrated on-line system forencoding ticket issuances, payments, notices and inquiries. The set-up, orientation and testing is complex. To avoid arisk of major disruption of service, the existing contract should be extended to expire December 31, 2012. This willallow for the solicitation of new proposals, and if necessary, the implementation of a new system, during the off-seasonwhen ticket issuance and collection is minimized. In conference with Complus agent Stephen Hittman, Chief FinancialOfficer, the vendor agrees with the strategy and approves the contract extension. All contract conditions will remain thesame during the period of extension

Dear Mr. Waluk and Members of the Board:

Please be advised that I represent Behan Bros., Inc. We have become aware of theapplication to transfer the ownership interest of the license relating to 41 ° North and its member,802 Partners, LLC.

R.I.G.L. 3-5-19 states that "In all cases of transfer of license, indebtedness of the licenseeincurred in the operation of the licensed premises shall be paid to or released by an objectingcreditor before the issuing body permits the transfer."

Behan Bros., Inc. hereby objects to this transfer as Behan Bros., Inc. has an outstandinglien in the amount of $1,619,502.39 on the licensed premises. There is no indebtedness moreincurred in the operation of the licensed premises than the indebtedness incurred to build thelicensed premises.

We respectfully request that before this transfer is permitted that the outstandingindebtedness owed to Behan Bros., Inc. be paid.

I expect to be present at the scheduled meeting on this matter should you have anyquestions.
