Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council
2. A broad policy requiring the Planning Com-
mission to hold hearings oh their own
motion for a zone exception would seem
to grant a privilege to one type of busi-
ness while same benefit would not apply
to other businesses where a variance is
required to conduct that business.
3. Payment of $100.00 fee that must be paid
when filing an application for a variance.
Waiving of this fee in the case of foster
homes would place City in position of
being criticized if same. privilege were
not extended in the case of all variances.
It wasp the recommendation of Chief Administrative Officer Asmus
that'the City Council's action of November 18, 1957, be modified
so that in all cases of zone variance the applicant shall pay the
required filing fee.
Discussion followed.
City Clerk Balkus gave the oath to those in the audience who
wished to be heard.
Mrs. Merle Randall., 3323 North Puente Avenue, Baldwin Park,
appeared before Council and stated she was interested only
in having day care children. Mrs. Randall defined child
care centers, day nurseries and foster homes as being three
separate operations, each having their own requirements.
Mrs. Doris Blankenship, 811 North Frazier Street, Baldwin
Park., appeared before Council stating the operations of a day
care home, hours involved, etc. Mrs. Blankenship also said
that it was their wish to have the city ordinance changed to
allow them to care for a stipulated number of children and
still comply with the State requirements.
Mrs. Mildred Scott, 12735 E. Waltham, Baldwin Park, further
clarified the requirements of the State Welfare Commission
under whom they are all licensed.
Considerable discussion followed.
COUNCILMAN HOLMES moved that the Chief Administrative Officer
and the City Attorney be instructed to correlate all the
various regulations of various agencies and all pertinent
information and present it to Council for further study within
thirty days from this date, and further, that Mrs. Merle
Randall be notified, and she in turn notify others involved
so they may discuss the findings with Council. COUNCILMAN
LITTLEJOHN seconded. There were no objections, the motion
