Silver, Attorney, 629 South Hill Street, Los Angeles, California, requested that some action be taken by Council on the granting of a building permit for the con- struction of eight units by his client, Mrs. Fordam, as the delay in reaching a decision was causing her a great expense, and was extremely unfair. Chief Administrative Officer Asmus reported that, with re- gard to the formation of a parking district, he was waiting for a group of property owners in that vicinity to contact him, after which they would go to another city to gain needed information relative to'the formation of a parking district; that it would probably be some fame before the district would be in a position to condemn the property; that he had received a letter on November 15, 1960, from.an individual claiming he has a legal escrow, signed, seated, and in order, to buy this property, and that he had requested that a building permit not be issued, inasmuch as he felt he was asmuch an owner of the property as Mrs. Fordam. Mr. Silver stated that the Title Insurance & Trust Company had gone on record to the effect that they are going to issue a title-policy without any Indication that this claim' is in existence, and offered, for inspection by Council, the preliminary title report dated September 12, 1,960. Planning Director Mansfield located the area under discussion on the map for benefit of Council, stipulating that It is the property known as Crickett Lane. Considerable discussion followed wherein Councilman Bishop stated that he did not feel that it was up to the City to instigate such a procedure... that it was the responsibility of the property owner; that he could see no advantage to a parking area in this particular location; that a building permit should not be held up, as, in so doing, the progress of the City was being delayed. Councilman Littlejohn ex- pressed the opinion that Council should grant these people the right to go ahead and build, or, initiate condemnation proceedings. COUNCILMAN BISHOP MOVED THAT THE BUILDING INSPECTOR BE GIVEN AUTHORITY TO ISSUE A BUILDING PERMIT ON THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY. COUNCILMAN LITTLEJOHN SECONDED. November 21, 1960 Page 2 P. C.

City Attorney Gorlick stated that Councilman Bishop was correct, that the proposition before Council at this public hearing is whether to reduce Vineland Avenue to 60' and, therefore, those being in favor of" would be those favoring the reduction. However, the proceeding is not invalidated if Council desires to conduct the hearing on the basis of taking the testimony in opposition first; that the important thing In any hearing is to give everyone who wants to speak an opportunity to do so. Mayor Cole asked if there was anyone in the audience desiring to speak in behalf of Vineland Avenue becoming a 60' street. Mr. William Van Velzer, 3221 North Vineland Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated that over 200 property owners on Vineland Ave. had presented a petition as being in favor of a 60' street, and expressed dissatisfaction at the manner in which the Planning Commission had handled their public hearings; and that the will of the people had been expressed and should be given consideration. Mr. C. L. Veasman, 3234 North Vineland Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated that he was in construction work and, therefore, versed in the damage being done by the trucks constantly using this street now; that it would be dangerous for the children. Mrs. Harriett Dyer, 3945 North Vineland Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated that she had noticed that the people opposing the reduction of Vineland Avenue to a 60' street do not live on Vineland Avenue, and that she was in favor of a 60' street. Mr.Richard Perez, 3955 North Vineland Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated that there is about 300' of property on Vineland Ave. on which the owners could build if the street were 60'; that this property, as it now stands, merely creates a lot of dust; that he felt that 40' of pavement, in the event of a 60' street, would be sufficient; that he felt most of the people would put in curbs and sidewalks if made a 60' street. City Clerk Backus again administered the oath. Mr. D. W. Hoover, 13634 East Francisquito, Baldwin Park, Stated that he owned property at 3529 and 3535 North Vineland Avenue, on which he has built a house; but cannot sell until a decision is made one way or the other; that he felt a 60' street would be sufficient to take care of all the traffic. Mr. Edwin Elko, 13057 Bess Ave., Baldwin Park, stated that he had a secondary interest in property at 3309 North Vine- land by way of a trust deed, which is now sold; that a 60' street is sufficient, as it should carry only local traffic; spoke with reference to buildings being non-conforming and Continued) November 21, 1960 Page 5 MR.

Mr. Charles Lacey, 3672 North Vineland Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated that he had helped circulate the petition that was presented to Council, and that there had been only one person not in favor of a 60' street; that he did not want to live on a secondary highway as it reduces the value of the property. Mrs. Perez, 3955 North Vineland Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated that, in her opinion, it was the housewives that ran over the traffic counters, more than anyone else, and did not see why they should have an 80' street. Mr. John Borges, 13632 East Rexwood, Baldwin Park, stated that he owned 137' on Vineland Avenue and was in favor of the 60' street. Mayor Cole asked if there was anyone in the audience desiring to be heard in opposition to the 60' street. Mr. Robert Hallway, 1809 East Chapman Avenue, Fullerton, stated,that he did live on Vineland Avenue for about 23 years, and owns property there; that there is a need for an 80' street In projected plans for,the City, which would benefit the public as a whole, not just the citizens of Baldwin Park; that the needs of the community should be respected; that the opinions and recommendations of experts of the County and State should be considered. Mr. Carl Hoertig, 1111 West Las Flores, Arcadia, owner of property at 3040 North Vineland Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated that he was in favor of the 80' street; that, per the State Division of Highways the wider Street would be the safer street;-that fhe traffic will continue to exist whether the street Is 601 or 80' as long as there is direct access to the Freeway. City Clerk Balkus stated that she was handed a letter from Mr. Hoting, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, First Methodist Church of Baldwin Park, addressed to Mayor Cole and Members of Council; which read: Mayor Cole and Council: We hereby recommend that Vineland Avenue shall remain an 80' street.
