ANNOUNCEMENTS, CITY MANAGER REPORT
7.1 ID 14-0402 Announce Vacancies on Lake Havasu City Boards, Committees, and
Commissions
City Clerk Kelly Williams announced the current vacancies for various Lake Havasu City Boards,
Committees, and Commissions.
7.2 ID 14-0403 City Manager’s Report
City Manager Charlie Cassens reported on the following:
The Military Police Transition Training Academy graduation was held on August 8, 2014. Ten
Military Police Veterans graduated and have found employment within the State of Arizona. Two
of the graduates joined the Lake Havasu City Police Department and are beginning their post
academy training over the next couple of weeks. They will start their four month Field Training
Program and it is anticipated they will join a patrol shift in January of 2015. He congratulated all
of the veterans who successfully completed their initial training and also thanked Representative
Sonny Borrelli who championed the legislation to make this happen.
Maintenance Services has been working overtime including Saturdays to clean-up the roadways
and thoroughfares from the storm. They have hired a grading contractor to assist in that operation
and also rented additional tractor equipment. When monsoon storms hit Lake Havasu City work
crews scrape boulevards first and then the residential drives. This order provides for the greatest
safety due to the traffic volumes. The storm last Sunday night required an additional priority due
to our local schools reopening on Monday. This required crews to scrape arterial roads around the
schools due to increased traffic in those areas. Crews expect clean-up operations to take six to
eight weeks barring any additional storms. Work crews ask for the citizen’s patience and to use
caution while driving on roads with debris.
Since the last report in February, the Building and Planning Division provided updated statistics
for FY 2013/2014: Averaged 20 new residential single family (RSF) submittals each month, a
28% increase from the previous FY 2012/2013; averaged 208 plan reviews a month, a 26%
increase; and 798 building inspections a month which is a 26% increase from FY 2012/2013.
There have been five open projects for this fiscal year ready for issue and three large projects
currently in plan review ranging from 8,500 square feet to 35,000 square feet with an estimated
project value ranging from $300,000 to $3.25 million. He thanked staff for a great year and
making the division dynamic, efficient, and customer friendly.
Since the last report of July 22, 2014, Code Enforcement staff has received 5 new complaints,
Lake Havasu City Page 2 Printed on 9/24/2014
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes - August 12, 2014
Final
performed 35 initial complaint inspections, 86 re-inspections, sent 20 violation notices, and closed
54 cases. There are currently 57 active and open cases.
The Recreation Division would like to invite all interested groups and persons to the first Fall
Fun Fair Committee Meeting on Thursday, August 28, 2014, at 9:00 a.m. at the Aquatic Center.
The Fall Fun Fair is a community fundraising event benefiting non-profits, Parent Teacher
Organizations, and service groups. It is a fun way for these groups to raise funds, show support,
and bring awareness about their group or club to the community. For more information contact
Janice Brown in the recreation office at 453-8686.
The next Coffee with the Mayor is scheduled for Friday, September 5, at Jersey’s Grill, from
7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. Residents are encouraged to attend to express any issues, concerns, or ask
questions.
The Tinnell Memorial Skate Park Monument plaque has been temporarily affixed to a metal
framework that was created by Operations staff and today completed the permanent monument for
the plaque itself. It is another testament to the skills of our internal crews and will stand the test of
time for many decades and serve as a monument to Patrick Tinnell and the Memorial Skate Park.
He thanked the crews for a great job.
8. PUBLIC HEARINGS
8.1 ID 14-0405 Series #06 Liquor License, Gallagher’s Dining & Pub, 3524 McCulloch
Boulevard/Leonard
Ms. Williams advised that Randall Anthony Leonard applied for a Series #06 Bar License for
Gallagher’s Dining & Pub, located at 3524 McCulloch Boulevard. Ms. Williams said all posting
requirements have been met, all fees have been paid, and no objections were received. She added
that a liquor license was previously held at this location.
Mayor Nexsen asked if a Series #06 liquor license had previously been held at this location, to
which Mr. Leonard replied that he has owned the business for a little more than seven years and it
has been licensed as a Series #12 and Series #07. Mayor Nexsen said it was his understanding that
a Series #06 license could not be held if the business was within 300 feet of a church. Mr. Leonard
explained that the establishment was there and licensed with a full service license before the church
existed, and added that it was his understanding that it was always “grandfathered” in. Mr. Leonard
added that the Liquor Board has reviewed and accepted it. Mayor Nexsen said for clarification he
did not think the Liquor Board has accepted this. He stated that if he were to vote in favor of this,
he would be approving something knowing that it was not acceptable because of the church
location. He said the Arizona Liquor Board makes the final decision and if they think it is
“grandfathered” then they will override what the City Council recommends and allow it.
Mr. Leonard stated that Gallagher’s is currently licensed to serve beer and wine and was
previously licensed as a Series #12 to sell beer, wine, and spirits. He said the reason the reason a
Series #06 is necessary is because when an audit was done they combined the sales of those two
Lake Havasu City Page 3 Printed on 9/24/2014
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes - August 12, 2014
Final
licenses due to an alteration that was made in the law about 10 years ago. He said even though
Gallagher’s maintained the Series #12 and the Series #07 it is now necessary to have a Series #06.
Mayor Nexsen said a Series #12 must meet 40% in food sales and what he has heard is that
Gallagher’s has not met the 40% percent food sales; therefore, the Liquor Board requires that they
move to a Series #06, which a Series #06 is only acceptable if you are not within 300 feet of a
church. Mr. Leonard replied that it is currently and always been licensed to serve alcohol, to which
Mayor Nexsen replied that the Liquor Board cannot take their existing license away but said it was
his understanding by approving this he would be saying it is okay to violate the State statue.
Mr. Leonard stated that he would reapply for a Series #12 again but did not want to do that because
the business cannot grow any more than it currently is. He explained that food costs have risen in
excess of 200 percent over the last several years and it is not possible anymore. Mr. Leonard noted
that it was the State Liquor Board who suggested they get the Series #06. Mayor Nexsen reiterated
that it would be up to the State Liquor Board then to waive that requirement.
Mayor Nexsen opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public hearing.
Councilmember Barlow moved to recommend that the Arizona Department of
Liquor Licenses & Control approve a Series #06 liquor license for Gallagher's
Dining & Pub, 3524 McCulloch Boulevard. Motion failed for lack of a second.
Councilmember Brister asked for clarification on the location of the church and the State statute, to
which City Attorney Kelly Garry said based on the information that staff has received, part of the
consideration that the Liquor Board will have to take is that there is a law that does not allow
issuing a Series #06 if it is within 300 feet of a church. She said how the State is going to handle
that or advise on that staff does not know and we do not have all the facts and circumstances right
now. Ms. Garry said the City Council will be making a recommendation to the Liquor Board but
ultimately they are the ones to make a final decision. She added that whether the Liquor Board has
the right to waive certain things or look at it from a different angle, staff does not know that
information at this time. Councilmember Brister said it sounded like regardless of whether the
Council was to approve or deny the Liquor Board will make the final decision, to which Ms. Garry
replied yes and added that they will take the Council’s recommendation into consideration just like
any other recommendation but ultimately the Liquor Board will grant or deny the liquor license.
Councilmember Barlow said the reason he made a motion to recommended approval is because the
Council is simply saying to the Liquor Board that we do not have any objection to any of these
licenses but it is always up to them to make the final decision. He said if the Council does not have
any problem with Gallagher’s being next to a church then he thought they should recommend
approval.
Mr. Leonard addressed the Council again and said Gallagher’s is currently open, operating, and

serving alcohol. He said the law is there for a new restaurant applying for a new license, and if
there was an existing church then it would be a factor. Mr. Leonard said with a Series #06 license
they would be operating the same as they have since the existence of Gallagher’s. He said the
economic situation has caused them to obtain a $100,000 loan for this license so they can stay in
business, and asked that the Council take this into consideration as Gallagher’s has been in
business since 1978 and the costs associated with this license will be hard to recover. Mr. Leonard
said if the Council does not allow the Series #06 license, the Council is going to close Gallagher’s.
Mayor Nexsen reiterated that the Arizona Liquor Board ultimately makes the final decision and the
Council would only be making a recommendation. He said it was his understanding that if
Gallagher’s would have continued with the license they had, there would be no issues; however,
the Arizona State Liquor Board said Gallagher’s could no longer continue with that license
because it failed four different audits; and therefore, the Liquor Board said the only way they
would be able to operate is with a Series #06. Mayor Nexsen added that he was told that the Liquor
Board is aware of the church right next door. He said ultimately the Council could approve this and
the Liquor Board could say they do not care.
Mr. Leonard said the Liquor Board is aware there is a church there because the application requires
you to identify the closest church and school. He said if the Council denies this then there will be
another timeframe and they will have to make payments on the $100,000 loan. Mayor Nexsen
replied that the Council’s recommendation or non-recommendation does not change the time
frame.
Mr. Leonard reiterated that the Liquor Board is aware of the church and they currently have a
liquor license. Mayor Nexsen asked if Gallagher’s currently has a Series #06 license, to which Mr.
Leonard replied no, but the fact of the matter is that it is not about what type of license it is. Mayor
Nexsen said the Liquor Board would have to decide that, to which Mr. Leonard said all he wanted
the Council to realize is that they have a liquor license now. Mayor Nexsen said, from his
understanding, if Gallagher’s wanted to switch to a different type of license, like a Series #06, and
there is a church next door, that it is prohibited by Arizona State Law. Mr. Leonard said that was
incorrect if it is an existing establishment, to which Mayor Nexsen replied that Mr. Leonard would
have to take that up with the Liquor Board.
Councilmember Alger moved to not recommend that the Arizona Department of
Liquor Licenses & Control approve a Series #06 liquor license for Gallagher’s
Dining & Pub, at 3524 McCulloch Boulevard, due to the location of the church,
seconded by Councilmember Brister, and carried by the following vote:
Aye: 5 - Mayor Nexsen, Councilmember Alger, Councilmember Brister,

8.2 ID 14-0397 Adopt Resolution No. 14-2854 Opposing the Proposed USEPA Clean
Water Act Rule Redefining Waters of the United States
Water Resources Coordinator Doyle Wilson advised that item before the Council is a resolution to
address concerns about the proposed rule for the Clean Water Act. He said what the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers are trying to do is redefine the notion
of navigable waters through a new definition of what tributaries mean. He explained that if they are
a continuous flow, femoral, or intermittent, or if there is a chance for water to flow in any wash
whatsoever that gets into a bigger wash and makes it way to the lake that is a tributary. Mr. Wilson
said this has potential impacts for not only the 404 permitting process to extend and make it more
expensive to develop land but it also has some implications to the National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) disposal system which is another part of the Clean Water Act. He
said this resolution will piggyback on what other cities are concerned with in the State. He added
that U.S. Senators have written letters saying let’s change this proposed change with something a
little bit better for Arizona as well as Bullhead City.
Mayor Nexsen opened the public hearing.
Mr. Chuck Vaughn addressed the Council and said he often hears about people dumping trash into
the washes and wondered if this would make it more of a federal case on those people if they get
caught. He also wondered if it would have any implication on people that ride their quads in the
washes because those washes run into the lake. Mr. Wilson said it would depend upon the situation
if there was an oil spill or gasoline leak from a particular vehicle that could be a problem under the
new rule if somebody would report it to the federal government; otherwise, it would not restrict
access to the washes that he could tell at this point in time.
There being no further comments, Mayor Nexsen closed the public hearing.
Councilmember Barlow added that it is incredible to him that EPA sites studies that were initiated
by Food and Drug Administration (FDA), reviewed by EPA and then given the final approval by
EPA with scientific studies that as far as he concluded simply stated that water runs downhill. He
said the whole thing is just a farce and added that gullies and ditches are exempt; therefore, if we
could just designate the washes as ditches then the City would be exempt from the whole thing.
Mr. Wilson said if the City were zoned as agricultural Councilmember Barlow would be correct.
Councilmember Callahan moved to approve Resolution No. 14-2854 opposing the
EPA proposed rule change of the Clean Water Act to redefine “waters of the United
States,” seconded by Councilmember Alger, and carried by the following vote:

8.3 ID 14-0411 Discussion and Possible Action Regarding a Solicitation for Private Sector
Alternatives to the City’s Debt Currently Managed by the State’s Water
Infrastructure Finance Authority (WIFA)
Mr. Cassens said the item before the Council is authorization for staff to issue a Request For
Information (RFI) from the private sector to seek out any ideas, suggestions, or possible solutions
or alternatives in the private sector that the City has had limited success in the public sector with
respect to the debt the City has currently with WIFA. He said since 2012 when staff did an
intensive analysis of the various alternatives available with respect to taxing, fees, and increasing
sales tax, and looking at all of the various alternatives that might bring some rate relief to our sewer
customers, the City settled on four or five of the alternatives and determined through that analysis
and public outreach that the consequences of those changes was too great to too many customers.
He added that it was going to actually raise rates to more customers than it would have reduced.
Mr. Cassens said the decision coming away from that process was to work with WIFA to look at
refinancing, restructuring alternatives, and look at retiring debt as it becomes available to do so. He
said since that time, staff has worked very closely with WIFA who has agreed to allow the City to
restructure the most expensive borrowing, the Greater Arizona Development Authority (GADA), a
$57 million interest only loan for 30 years at 5 percent. He said that should allow the City to
decrease the $20 million plus in annual debt by $1.2 to $1.4 million dollars per year. He said that,
combined with retiring the City’s two oldest borrowings, could potentially reduce the $20 million
plus annual debt by about $2.5 million dollars plus a year. Mr. Cassens said it falls short of the
original goal of reducing it by $5 million to $8 million which would have allowed a potential
reduction in sewer rates, and is not realistic in working with the public sector requirements and
restrictions that we are dealing with through the WIFA. He said this solicitation to the private
sector could open some other possibilities that staff has not thought of or that might be out there to
allow the City to accomplish the objectives through the private sector and outside of the WIFA
realm. Mr. Cassens noted that the RFI does not obligate the city to anything and is not a contract,
but is basically a trial balloon into the private sector to see if there are options out there that could
potentially help the City with the original goals of restructuring, refinancing, or looking at new
financial models for the system that is in place now. Mr. Cassens recommended that the Council
authorize staff to conduct this solicitation.
Mayor Nexsen opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public hearing.
Mayor Nexsen said exploring this solicitation does not cost the City anything, and added that if the
City does get anything back staff can continue to explore or reject them all.

8.4 ID 14-0396 Approve Sole Source Purchase of Compactor Parts and Mechanical Seals
for Rehabilitation of Fine Screens at the North Regional Wastewater
Treatment Plant from Ovivo USA, LLC.
Wastewater Division Manager Doug Thomas advised that this is the first of a few items on this
year’s Asset Management Program. He said staff would be completing some rehabilitation to the
fine screens at the North Regional Plant versus replacing the screens which will save the City quite
a bit of money. He added that the fine screens screen all of the raw sewage that is pumped to the
North Plant.
Mayor Nexsen opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public hearing.
Councilmember Callahan asked what the typical life span is for the screens based on the amount of
volume going through them, to which Mr. Thomas replied approximately seven years is a good
service life for this type of equipment.

and mechanical seals for rehabilitation of North Regional Treatment Plant Fine

Membrane Modules for North Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant from
Zenon Environmental Corp/GE Water & Process Technologies
Mr. Thomas advised that this item is requesting a sole source purchase of the second membrane
train that staff is replacing at the North Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant. He added that staff
replaced one last year and added that staff spaced the purchase of the membranes so it would not
be a hard hit on the rates. Mr. Thomas said this particular train will be eight years old and the one
replaced last year was seven years old. He said there is a definite difference in the performance
since replacing the membrane which is an integral part of the treatment process. He added that the
membrane reactor system produces a very high quality effluent that is injected into the ground.
Mayor Nexsen opened the public hearing. There being no comments, he closed the public hearing.
