Mayor Cole clarified the intent of the proposed ordinance, with Chief Administrative Officer Asmus pointing out on a map the streets on which trucks would be permitted, and those on which they would be prohibited. Mayor Cole asked if there was anyone in the audience desiring to speak on behalf of proposed Ordinance No. 162. Mr. John Aglor, 3163 North Baldwin Park Boulevard, Baldwin Park, spoke in behalf of the proposed ordinance, questioning why the area below Francisquito on Baldwin Park Boulevard was omitted from the streets declared prohibited to the use of vehicle ex- ceeding 6,000 lbs.; stated that everyone living south of Fran- cisquito on Baldwin Park Boulevard to the Freeway is opposed to the heavy truck traffic and feels that this section should have also been precluded to truck travel; that it was his understanding that Rivergrade Road had been constructed pri- marily for trucks, with Baldwin Park Boulevard being used only for trucks making deliveries into the town; that he is wakened at 4:00 a.m. by the truck travel, and that it is almost im- possible to watch T.V., etc.; that it was his hope that in the future the routing of truck travel in this area can be eliminated. Councilman Holmes offered clarification to Mr. Aglor, in that; Francisquito is the only street that is capable of carrying the heavy load limits at the present time; that this is the only available access to the Freeway at this time; that Baldwin Park Boulevard will be in a state of repair which will take about one year to complete, thereby necessitating the elimination of truck travel during that time. Mrs. Scott, 3522 North Baldwin Park Boulevard, Baldwin Park, spoke in behalf of the proposed ordinance, stating that she works as a school-crossing guard at Stewart Avenue and Baldwin Park Boulevard; that she has great difficulty in getting the truck drivers to stop so the children can cross the street; that dirt and rock flies from the trucks, thereby creating another danger to the children. Mr. Frank Schoenbachler, 3589 North Baldwin Park Boulevard, Baldwin Park, spoke in behalf of the proposed ordinance, stating that the heavy truck travel is a detriment to the City; that there are other streets capable of handling this heavy traffic; wherein he presented a petition containing 87 signatures opposing this heavy truck travel on Baldwin Park Boulevard. Mr. Forest Conklin, 3866 North Baldwin Park Boulevard, Baldwin Park, spoke in behalf of the proposed ordinance stating that a person cannot enjoy conversation, radio, T.V., etc. due to the noise of the trucks; that it was dangerous for the children to cross the street; that it was a deplorable condition..... that the trucks should be stopped. Mrs. Joseph Sykes, 3848 North Baldwin Park Boulevard, Baldwin Park, spoke in behalf of the proposed ordinance, stating that she has lived at this address for about 25 years; that some- times the trucks slow down for the children to cross and other times, continue at their usual speed; that truck travel was detrimental to renting of property on Baldwin Park Boulevard; that she would appreciate consideration being given to the property owners paying taxes. As there was no one else in the audience desiring to speak in behalf of proposed Ordinance No. 162, Mayor Cole asked if there was anyone wishing to speak in opposition to this ordinance.

Dump to these men parking their trucks at their home, and asked Truck Owner's clarification of the City Attorney relevant to the State Vehicle Assoc. Code; that the truckers had been adked by the association to stay off Baldwin Park Boulevard; that the enforcement of this ordinance Spoke in Opposi- might be premature in view of scheduled studies being made to tion to proposed create a better flow of traffic;.that trucks are the only medium ordinance. used to bring commodities into the community; that by restrict- ing the use of certain streets to truck travel, the confusion is being compounded by way of causing higher rates, constriction of traffic of all types, creating traffic hazards, etc. Mr. Fred Imhof, Associate Executive Secretary of Southern Cali- fornia Rock Products Association, 1811 Fair Oaks Avenue, South Pasadena, spoke in opposition to the proposed ordinance, stating that he was speaking on behalf of Mr. Robert Brierley, who is a resident of the City and also President of the California Dump Truck Owner's Association; stated that, according to the Los Angeles Planning Commission book, published in 1929 by the Los Angeles County Division of Highways, in the map approved by this body, they recommended that Sierra Madre Avenue and Baldwin Park Boulevard be Included as major arteries in the transportation system of Los Angeles County; that a north-south route should be seriously considered. Mrs. Arthur Seymour, 5141 North Sleeker Street, Baldwin Park, asked for clarification regarding truck travel on Joanbridge Street and Sleeker. Mr. Daniel Petrizze, 15009 East Ramona Boulevard, Baldwin Park, owner of Danny's Sack Shack Cafe", spoke in opposition to the ordinance, stating that business would suffer if the truckers were not permitted travel on Ramona. Boulevard. Mayor Cole informed Mr. Petrizze that Ramona Boulevard is a truck route and, therefore, is not excluded to truck travel. Mr. Francis Lenderman, 4213 North Bogart Street, Baldwin Park, stated that he is a contractor'and builder, not a truck driver, but felt that the city was over-stepping" by its proposed restrictions to truck travel. As there was no one else in the au-dience w-ishing to speak either In behalf of or in opposition to, Mayor Cole declared the hearing closed. Discussion followed wherein Councilman Holmes expressed the opinion that, after considerable study of the matter, and in view of the scheduled studies regarding the flow of traffic, this proposed ordinance, under the existing conditions, is the most logical and practical at the present time; that it is in the best interest of both the City and the truck operators.
