He reported that other cities require, by ordinance, that all sub-structures be placed after the curb and gutters are installed, but prior to installation of the base and street surfaces. He suggested this requirement be made a part of Baldwin Park Sub-division Ordinance. The City Council felt it advisable that developers of tracts be made responsible for putting in pavement and gutters; that utilities be installed prior to installation of base and surface of streets. This condition should be made part of the terms of contract before final map approval.

Mr. Young stated he had reviewed zoning case No. 104, now listed as No. Z-28 and found that the zone change was recommended by P.C. Res. No. 162 and conditionally adopted by Ordinance No. 67. The property owned by Mr. Syhre was zoned M-I under Ordinance No. 67 after $2,000.00 was deposited for curb and gutter and paving hook-up along Dalewood and Maine Streets. The remaining parcels in the zone change have. not. complied to date. Mr. Wolf desires to put in curb and gutter or make necessary deposit. Part of his property is bounded by State-owned property; however, there is a drainage problem in this area that requires study to determine a proper handling method. Mr. Young's communication further stated that since a deposit had been approved for the Syhre property, and since there is a definite drainage problem in this area, he recommended that a deposit of $1,000.00 be accepted by the City for curb and gutter and paving hook-up along the 256 feet of the frontage along Dalewood Street starting at the most northeasterly corner of said property. Ap- proximately 90 feet of this frontage is State property, but Mr. Wolf is purchasing these two parcels, and since this is the location of his driveway, the 90 feet area is included in the recommended deposit.

Councilman Holmes seconded and the motion carried unanimously and was so ordered at 9:55 p.m. The meeting reconvened at 10:05 p.m. Councilman Litt.lejohn moved that the deposit of $1,000.00 be accepted to apply toward the cost of installing curb and gutter and pavement hook-up along the northerly frontage of Dalewood Street without releasing the owner from paying for the improve- ment, whatever the cost may be.
