In 2015, after review of the <br />assessment, the City posted warning signs around the slope failure and began visual <br />monitoring of the -site. On March 8, 2017, City staff, along with Councilmembers Lipton <br />and Loo, met with residents concerned about the slope failure behind their residences <br />on Coyote Run Open Space. Director Stevens sated the residents expressed concern <br />about continued slope failure and damage to the property values of their homes. <br />Director Stevens stated American GeoServices, LLC was the only company to submit a <br />proposal and cost estimate to conduct further assessment. This would be sole source <br />as there was only one responder to the request despite being sent to multiple other <br />companies. Based on the cost estimate and the fact this was not an approved 2017 <br />project, the City's Purchasing Policy requires this matter go before City Council for <br />authorization. <br />Mayor Pro Tem Lipton urged Council to approve this tonight to further evaluate any <br />safety concerns about the site. There is no conclusion about what should be done but <br />the study is the first step. He noted the Open Space Board supports this cost being paid <br />from the Open Space Fund <br />
