Mayor Bishop stated that it was planned to discuss and take TRACTS 26475,
action on the following Tracts: Numbers 26475, 24088, 26175 24088, 26175 AND
and 22565. 22565.
City Attorney Saunders explained that Mr. Johnson and he
had gone over some general problems on all of the tracts;
some tracts contain lots that are not bought by the sub-
divider and are not a part of the tract; some lots present
a grading problem; some contain structures; some have a
survey line going through an existing house.
Tract 26475 was discussed. TRACT 26475
COUNCILMAN HOLMES MOVED THAT COUNCIL APPROVE THE PLANS AND
SPECIFICATIONS AND ACCEPT THE TRACT AND THE BONDS BE RE-
LEASED. MOTION SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN COLE. NO VOTE)
Considerable discussion followed wherein it was stated that DISCUSSION.
the tentative map has been approved, finaled and recorded
and ready for sale; that sometimes a developer sells part
of the lots and the new buyer takes over, and the question
arises regarding the other lots that are part of the tract
but have not been sold and do not comply with the require-
ments agreed upon and whether to release the bonds and
what to require; that one has a house on the lot line and
on a part of lot to be graded; that one lot has a swimming
pool on it and which must be removed before they can comply
with the grading requirements; that it is a question of what
the city requires here, and future problems regarding drain-
age, etc.; that if the city releases, then the city is put
in the position of having no one to hold liable should
future problems arise; wherein Councilman Holmes stated
that the Acting City Engineer will not make changes in the
grading on another engineer's layout, and, therefore, it
takes Council action to issue a change order; wherein City
Attorney Saunders stated that it requires the bonding
company's approval, and that the only objection would be
whether or not the releasing of those parts of the subdivision
that are not yet finished would be satisfactorily covered
under a new bond that the old bond covered the whole thing.
COUNCILMAN HOLMES MOVED THAT TRACT 26475 BE APPROVED
ACCORDING TO PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS AND RELEASE THE BOND.
MOTION SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN COLE. NO VOTE)

was offered in that this tract was completed in accordance
with the approved plans, specifications, bonds and agree-
ments except for the following items: I) setting of sur-
vey monuments and receipt of survey ties 2) the'radius
of temporary turn-around on Hornbrook Avenue is 381 instead
of 401 as per the Planning Commission Resolution; wherein
the City Attorney stated that the main concern is that of
policy and procedure in order that Council can be certain
that a tract is ready for approval and that all conditions
have been complied with and suggested that the City Engineer
should advise Council that he has checked the conditions
of approval on the tentative map against what has been
done and what the final map shows and that the subdivider
has complied with all requirements; wherein reference was
made to the Business and Professions Code, Section 11627,
in which it spells out action regarding subdivisions on
final maps.
Councilman Holmes with the consent of the second restated
his motion, incorporating further facts as follows:
COUNCILMAN HOLMES MOVED THAT TRACT 26475 BE APPROVED AND
ACCEPTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE
CITY ENGINEER AND PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR AND THAT THE BONDS
BE RELEASED UPON THE SETTING OF THE SURVEY MONUMENTS AND
THE SURVEY TIES RECEIVED. COUNCILMAN COLE SECONDED. The

AYES: COUNCILMEN HOLMES, COLE

NOES: COUNCILMAN LITTLEJOHN
ABSENT: COUNCILMAN BLOXHAM

APPROVED.

At this time Council elected to consider Tract 26175, which TRACT 26175.
tract involved: I) the grading of Lots 18 and 19...and also,
on Lot 18 there is an existing swimming pool which was not
shown on the engineer's plans 2) Lot 23...it was recommended
that the developer post a bond to guarantee restoring the
area and driveway to grade.
Discussion followed wherein Councilman Littlejohn stated DISCUSSION.
that the liability is between the developer and the orig-
inal seller.
Mr. John Grindle, Representative of the R. A. Watt Con-
struction Co., 16901 S.W. Avenue S, Gardena, stated that,
as part of the subdivision, the pool and the area sur-
rounding It should be graded but the owner would probably
not want this; wherein he stated that if a man demands a
building permit it couldn't be given him, as there is al-
ready a pool on the land; although the lot appears to be
buildable on the map, it is not, due to the existence of
the pool; that if the map shows it does not meet City spec-
ifications and cannot be built upon, then the City is in
the clear; that the Final Map does not state that it must
be graded to specifications.
City Attorney Saunders stated that the public records must
show there is a limitation and no space for setback require-
ments, and as such, he would not be able to get a building
permit; that such action is necessary to protect a new buy-
er; that Mr. Grindle can post a bond to cover the City and
indemnify in the event any claim of this kind develops, there-
by solving the problem. He further stated, as a matter of
continuing clarification, that any conditions of any lot
must appear on the Final Map and show it is,not a build-

ing lot, as a purchaser has no knowledge of obstructions
which prohibits the issuance of a building permit under
present conditions, that it must show that Lot 18 does
not comply with the City ordinance by a notation on the
Final Map so stating; that there is an Improvement Bond
which covers grading; that, if the conditions are not com-
plied with, then the bond cannot be released; that Council
can obtain a bond from the owner of Lot 18; that if the
City exercised waiver then it would be their obligation
and place them in the position of liability; that if the
owner will not pay the premium on the bond, then it was
possible the developer would have to; that the owner could
give a letter releasing the City and the developer; that
the Bond should state that this lot will not be sold for
building purposes until such time as the plans and specifi-
cations as required by this subdivision, have been complied
with.
Mr. Eckles of Dutch Holzhour & Associates stated that many
tracts are planned this way so that street improvements
can be put in, and if tracts contain too many lots marked
not a part of it, it will slow down development.
City Attorney Saunders suggested that a meeting be held
between the Subdivider, the Engineer and himself.
Discussion ensued relevant to the possibility of having
the owner execute a release.
COUNCILMAN LITTLEJOHN MOVED THAT THE FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF
FINAL MAP TRACT 26175 BE GRANTED SUBJECT TO THE CITY
ATTORNEY PREPARING THE PROPER AMENDMENT THAT INCLUDES
THE DELETION OF THE GRADING OF LOTS 18 AND 19, WITH THIS
BECOMING A RECORDED ITEM AGAINST THE PROPERTY IN ORDER
TO BE ABLE TO RELEASE THE BOND AT THE COMPLETION OF THE
TRACT. COUNCILMAN COLE SECONDED.

not usable.

TION E. RIEMER
October 10, 1961
To the Council of the City of Baldwin Park!
Mr. Mayor; Gentlemen:
The enclosed paper contains a statement presented to the Council
of West Covina at its last meeting on October 9th, by the Pres-
ident of the League of Women Voters of West Covina.
You are of course aware of the controversy which arose when the
West Covina Mayor proclaimed the Week of October 22nd to 28th as
United Nations Week in accordance with the wishes of the Presi-
dent of the U.S.
Since you, Gentlemen, did not proclaim this week, I think it
would be amiss, if a city the size of Baldwin Park were to ig-
nore this event altogether.
I therefore petition the Mayor and members of the Council to
have this letter and its enclosure read in open meeting at the
regular session on October 16, 1961.
Respectfully,
Elise Riemer

The League of Women Voters is a national, non-partisan organization
with the goal of promoting good government through informed citizens
who are active in their government. We never support a candidate or
party. We do support an issue which we have studied and upon which
our members have come to an agreement.
The United Nations is one such subject. The League began this study
before the Charter of the U.N. was ratified, and before the United
States became a member. We have continued to observe the U.N. through
out these years and to keep our members abreast of its activities.
Last year we reviewed this continuing responsibility, and 132,000
members in 50 states agreed that the League should continue its
support of the U.N.
I can't tell you that 132,000 women are all of one mind! We, too,
are aware of the short comings, limitations, and errors of the U.N.
But, we are all, also, aware of actions taken by our own government
which we, as individuals, would have preferred to be done differently.
However, no one of us would consider withdrawing our support from
our government on this basis. SimilarAly with the U.N.
The League feels that the U.N. is the means for world peace and
for the security of mankind.
Discussion followed regarding the City not receiving a
draft of such a resolution and the dates to be set aside.
Chief Administrative Officer Asmus stated that copy of
the proclamation could be secured if Council so desired.
Motion made by COUNCILMAN BLOXHAM AND SECONDED BY COUN-

Mr. Lloyd Dancer, owner of property at 14220 East Francis- L. DANCER
quito stated that in his opinion the area was suited to
multiple dwelling use.
Mr. Lloyd 0. Tronaas, 4703 N. Stewart stated the property L. TRONAAS
would be well suited to enterprise but that there is already
considerable commercial usage in the area; that Hartland
Hospital indicated they did not wish to expand and that
multiple usage rather than single family would be desirable.
Upon Mayor Bishop's request FOR TESTIMONY IN OPPOSITION the TESTIMONY IN
following individuals came forward: OPPOSITION.
Mr. Tom Cunningham, 1530 Ardilla, La Puente, who lives ap- T. CUNNINGHAM
proximately 156 feet from the area and would prefer to have
more buffer zone between his property and R-3.
Also in opposition, Mr. Larry Shook, 1519 North Ardilla L. SHOOK
Avenue., La Puente, stated he had appeared at both Plan-
ning Commission meetings; that he and his neighbors have
an investment in their property and that he did not be-
lieve multiple residence adjacent would enhance the value
of their property as rental property is sometimes not
well kept up. He prefers the Planning Departments original
recommendation to the Planning Commission for zoning the
property Westerly of the proposed extension of Siesta Ave-
nue as R-3 using the extension of Siesta as a buffer zone
and having the Easterly property zoned and remain R-I.
Mr. Bill Gignac, 1537 Ardilla, La Puente stated he objected BILL GIGNAC
to the change in the Master Plan for the same reasons as
the two previous gentlemen.
Mr. Edward Dye, 1460 Siesta, La Puente stated his property ED. DYE
extends the full width of the south side of the street;
that he objects for the reasons stated above, and also
would prefer to keep Siesta a dead end street.
Mr. Edward Till in REBUTTAL stated that the possibility REBUTTAL
of developing each side of the street differently had been E. TILL
discussed with one side R-3 and the other R-1. This was
indicated in exhibit B. He felt multiple development
would be a benefit to the area and would not devaluate
surrounding property; the rear easterly portion will be
garage area.
