MOTION CARRIED. . Councilman Pebley inquired as to how many amusement device permits have recently been processed and approved and where these are legally permitted. Mr. Roberts reported that there are approximately 12 in operation pre- sently and that there is nothing written in the Code which states that arcades are specifically permitted in any zone. The Planning Commission has considered this situation and has determined that arcades would fit into a similar category as bowling alleys and billiard parlors, i.e., that'they be permitted by right in the C-l, C-2 and. C-3 Zones and would require a conditional'use permit in the C-R Zone. A written report on this finding will be submitted to COuncil in the near future. Councilman Pebley remarked that he hoped that these establishments would not ultimately become a police problem. Councilman Sneegas voiced his opinion that this activity happens to be popular at the moment, and that interest and participation will dwindle naturally, as was experienced with various other fad activities such as slot car tracks. He did not feel that the City should attempt to regulate this type of business any more than other businesses. The City Clerk outlined the procedure currently used for approval of permits for amUsement devices and no further action was taken by the City Council.

MOTION CARRIED. PROPOSED JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT - NDSI Assistant City Manager Robert Davis reported on negotiations which have.been conducted over the past three months with San Gabriel Municipal. Data System (}/DS) regarding a computer facility to be jointly operated within the City of Anaheim. The results of these negotiations is a proposed joint powers agreement which he presented for review and possible proval in concept by the City Council. The .joint powers agreement provides for the following: The City of Anaheim and liDS will jointly purchase a computer; lease a building in the north- east industrial area of Anaheim; operate that facility and develop new software programs of interest to both agencies. Under the terms of the agreement, Anaheim City personnel will staff this computer center and will run the computer for both the City of Anaheim and the other member cities of MDg. The total cost for the first year of operation is estimated to be $548,000 of which Anaheim's portion would be $310,000, the balance to be assumed by MDg. In the analysis of computer usage it is projected that this would be close to a'50% split between Anaheim and the other member cities. Since the member cities utilize a teleprocessing system which requires less personnel than Anaheim's present methods, it is proposed that the personnel cost be broken down on a basis of 60/40, with An~hel~ assuming the largest share because of the greater personnel requirement. An analysis of this proposal indicates that the increase investment being made by the City of Anaheim as opposed to the other cities total invest- ment, may be off-set by the in~nediate acquisition of software programs developed by MDS plus the fact that they possess expertise in the teleprocessing mode. In addition a portion of the cost associated with this agreement will go towards the purchase of computer, and this Jill accrue equity which the City could col- lect if the agreement is terminated. The draft agreement also includes a re- payment claUse by which a portion of the costs contributed by new member cities would go towards reimbursing the City of Anaheim for that amount paid over and above the equity percentage. The intent of the agreement is to attempt to reduce costs for the data p£ucessing function and in particul&r the high cost associated with developing future software programs. According to the draft, Anaheim would become an as- sociate member and would not have voting rights in the organization but rather will be a full partner with 50% of the power of decision,.which is preferable to the situation encountered in PADS whereby Anaheim while paying a larger por- tion of the costs, could be outvoted by smaller cities paying less costs. Councilman Pebley asked why Anaheim should pay 60% of the total costs due to the fact there are 15 other member cities. Mr. Davis answered that the proportionate shares of the costs are based upon projected computer usage and advised that the smaller cities would have very limited computer applications. Councilman Dutton inquired whether there is any part of the Anaheim data processing program which would be beneficial to liDS. 7{-o I0 City Hall~ ~im{ California'- COUNCIL MINUTES - July 24~ 1973! 1=30 P.M. Mr. Davis conceded that this might be possible but is unlikely since they are on a teleprocessing system whereas Anaheim still utilizes the batch processing mOde. Councilman Sneegas asked if this proposed agreement would completely replace the City's present data processing operations. Mr. Davis replied afft'rmativa%y noting that under the terms of the agree- ment MD$ would acquire the computer in their names, however the hardware and con- figurations would have to be with concurrence by the City of Anaheim. The facil- ity is to be Jointly Ieas~preferably in the northeast area of Anaheim, near the Orange Freeway. The computer prgsently being used by the City is not large en- ough and it is proposed that a IBM 371-45 configuration would be purchased, which has the teleprocessing capacity. Councilman Thom asked how the City would regain the investment made, should it be advisable to terminate the agreement in two or three years. Mr. Davis explained that the City would sell its share of the computer to NDS or tO another party, and each would take their share in proportion to the percentage of equity paid. He advised that it is not anticipated upon resale to recoup the full purchase price, even though this would be a current machine and should meet the City's needs for the next eight to ten years. Councilman Thom asked what the.length of the contract time was to pur- chase the computer, to Which Mr. Davis answered that MDS proposes to go to a bank and take financing on a six-year term. The proposed agreement is for a three- year period with the right of cancellation by either party'on 270 days notice. Councilman Thom inquired as to the price of the hardware. Mr. Davis replied that in a computer configuration, the limiting fac- tors are the core,or memory unit, and the input-output devices. The proposed machine can be expanded at a nominal cost by addinghardware, or it may have to be sold after eight or ten years. The IBM purchase price of the machine is $852,895 and the yearly estimated payment of $354,000 includes service contracts for maintenance of the machine. He further explained that the City of Anaheim's share for the first year is $310,000 which, includes rental of thehardware and interest on s~m~,payment of sala~laa ~.ot~cos~a in conJunction~rlth the op- eration of. the computer facility. The'r~aso~in this instance that a bank loan will be utilized is to obtain a term for payment which is one year longer than the standard IBN contract. Councilman Sneegas asked vhether the first year's cost of $310,000 will cover what is currently budgeted for data processing. Mr. Davis advised that this $310,000 is completely a replaceable cost, ~hich ~ould have had to be paid anyway durin~ this budget year for personnel and hardware rental. The systems and progrmmnin~ personnel in the Data Processing section will make up the balance betvean the $310,000 and the amount currently budgeted. It is anticipated that if some software programs are developed, some of the costs of the system personnel may be recovered through NDS. Looking to the future, after the first year, a portion of'any increase in salaries at the computer facility will be assumed by ND$. Councilman Thom inquired what advantages' telecommunications would offer the City over batch moding, noting the geographical proximity of the computer facility and the fact that batch moding, he thought, was more accurate. Mr. Davis outlined the possibilities of,teleprocessing applications which would increase efficiency and perhaps cut costs in'the Utilities Division as well as the possibility of Police application of this mode. The new utility billing system, which is in the final sta~es of testing, is designed so that the next phase would be teleprocessing, and once the hardware is available, Hr. Davis explained, the additional terminal equip~nt .to convert is relatively inexpensive. He noted that one of the HDS software programs which the City of Anaheim is par- ticularly interested in is the Finance Accounting System, which it is hoped the 73.6.1rt ~- City ii~ll, .AnaheimI California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 241..~73t 1:30 P.M. City can utilize to conve~t the'present outdated accounting system into modern computer language. The adaptation of the MDS program could save the City as =uch as $100,000 in costs for design and reprogramin$. Following discussion, on motion by Councilman Dutton, seconded by Councilman Sneegas, the City Council approved the basic concept of the Joint powers agreement with San Gabriel Valley Municipal Data System as outlined in the draft of said agreement. MOTION CARRIED. RAILROAD CROSSING GATES - LINCOLN AND LOARA: Councilman Sneegas advised that he has received complaints from businessmen on West Lincoln Avenue relative to the traffic congestion caused by the recent installation of railroad crossing gates at'Lincoln and Loara. Upon further investigation of the situation, he advised that he has learned there has never been an accident involving automobile and train at this particular crossing. Presently the 'gates obstruct traffic if a train comes within 100 feet of the boulevard and this completely snarls traffic from the east to the west side of the City with a result that those businesses located on West Lincoln Avenue have no street access for up to four hours per day because of the congested traffic. Councilman Sneegas was of the opinion that the City should take some step to alleviate the situation created by mandate of the Public Utilities Com- mission that these gates be installed at every railroad crossing. He felt the railroad crossing gates to be an out-moded and ineffective protective device and stated that he would prefer to see the funds expended on these used for addi- tional protection at railroad crossing which have proven to be dangerous or to build an underpass at State College Boulevard. He further felt that these crOSsings gates rather than solving a problem are actually creating one. Councilman Pebley remarked that the Lincoln and Loara'railroad cros- sing loc&tion.is a switching point and most of the time the engine is standing and waiting to switch tracks. Councilman Sneegas further noted that this particular intersection, because of the amount and speed of traffic does not lend itself to the type of accidents Caused by trying to get through the intersection such as may be exper- ienced further east along the railroad right-of-way at Katella. He. felt that the method utilized previously, i.e., the stop light at which traffic Could proceed if the roadway was clear, was successful in deterring accidents and still allowed traffic to move, preventing the type of congestion currently experienced. He reiterated 'that the money spent on this intersection could have been spent with better results at other more dangerous crossings rather than at this slow moving switching track. Councilman Pebley stated that he has never seen a train come through the intersection at Lincoln and Loara faster than ten miles per hour. Further he noted that most of the time the intersection .is blocked, the train is not proceeding through the intersection but standing at either side of it. Mr. Watts counseled that the Public Utilities Con~nission policy pre- sentlY is essentially to require gate arms at all crossings. He inquired whether Councilman Sneegas had spoken with the City Traffic Engineer regarding the problem and whether or not this particular location is equiped with a timer device. Councilman Sneegas answered thai'he had ascertained from Mr. Granzow that a timing device has been installed at this crossing gate. Mr. Watts advised that these devices are calculated to override the action of the gate arms, i.e., if the train actuates the gate arm, but does not proceed through the intersection within a fixed period of time then this device will kick the gate arms up again. Following Council discussion regarding the amount of time which the railroad is permitted to block the intersection and the ordinance in the Anaheim Hunicipal Code to this effect, Hr. W&tts reported on the status of a case against the City of Whittier inwhich a similar ordinance was declared unconstitutional in the appellate division of the Superior Court of Los Angeles, and as an con- sequence the Public Utilities Commission instituted proceedings to establish 73-~12 soum typ~ of regulation of this problem', hoverer no decision has been received to date. Therefore, he advised that the ~heim ordinmnce ~ould be subject to legal question 8nd ~ost certainly its enforcement qeiust the railroad companies would be met with these objections. Councilman Stephenson remarked that in the past, when contacted re- garding this problem, the railroads have been very cooperative and suggested that the Railroad Nenagement be requested to check or adjust the gate arm timing de- vices at this location. By general Council consent, the City Traffic Engineer was directed to contact the hilroed Nauagement to ascertainwhether or not the timing device at the Lincoln and Learn crossin~ gate ams is in proper workir~ condition, or whether some adjustment of same might be in order, in attempt to correct the traffic sitUation.
