in securing bids for 62-A-I the contractors were to bid
by unit cost i.e. exc;,•'~tion and so on; that the reporter
had used a synonym segaicni" in the article;that he had
contacted the reporter today and she said the statement
would be corrected.
At this time Mayor Bloxham asked for a report from the REPORT RE 62-A-I
legal advisor for Sewer District 62-A-1, Mr. Urban J.
Schreiner of O'Melveny & Myers.
Mr. Schreiner stated that during the second week of June MR. URBAN J.
a meeting was held among the technical advisors, Mr. SCHREINER, O'MELVENY
Rosetti, City Attorney Flandrick, Mr. Young and himself; & MYERS
that the plans, diagram and assessment roll had been gone
over to make sure that the documents were consistent with
one another; that the quotation of the easements which
would have to be obtained were definitely shown on the
plans and would be in such a position on the plans that
they could be easily condemned if condemnation were
necessary; that at that time It was felt that the Council
wanted to have an opportunity to examine the plans and
specifications and the other documents that make up the
Engineer's Report; that following this examination a
further final meeting would have to be held among the
technical advisors before the Resolution of Intention
could be adopted; that he understood that the Council had
had an opportunity individually to go over the plans,
diagram and roll to Its own satisfaction; that this being
the case they were now in a position to make a final
analysis and examination of the materials necessary to
adopt the Resolution of Intention and set this matter
for hearing. He further stated that he believed that the
final meeting could be held within the next two weeks
and that the scheduling of these proceedings could take
place in approximately three weeks.
Councilman Holmes asked for a report from the City Engineer
as to what progress had been made on the suggestions and
recommendations and various items that were discussed that
should be corrected and if these could be accomplished in
approximately two weeks.
City Engineer Young stated yes; that Mr. Sims of Ivor CITY ENGR. YOUNG
Lyons and Associates was ready to come out to the City
Hall tomorrow morning to get started on the changes that
had been gone over; that it would not take Ivor Lyons very
long to make the changes necessary in the specifications.
He reviewed the changes as follows: the Council decided
to write the entire district as one bid; that all of the
sewers that were designed in the parkways would be placed
in the street; that as to the private streets the City
Engineer was to contact the property owners to see whether
they want sewers and what percentage; that on Westcott
Avenue the district was to be expanded over to include the
houses on the westerly side of Westcott that he had had
a meeting with Mrs. Igna yesterday concerning a necessary
easement); that the Council requested all six inch house
laterals to the property line that this would benefit many
of the property owners who had deep lots); that the spec-
ifications would be tightened as far as paving, temporary
paving, construction problems, and size of boulders per-
mitted in the backfill maximum of fifteen 15) inches in
diameter); that the tunneling under the driveways, park-
ways and sidewalks would be limited to ten 10) feet;
that there would not be a special item for chimneys; that
each of the units and different sizes would be classified
on the bid; that It was decided to write out the unit price
as well as putting In the figure to eliminate any question
as to where the decimal point was; that the specification
was written up for clay pipe only; that there was a spec- CLAY PIPE

Mg seal would be c'-.eaper in the long run than a hot

Councilman Holmes brought out that the Council Instructed
that there be no loose ends on the language of the agree-
ments, contracts, and specifications, for instance as
to who was going to do the staking of the grades and inspec-
tion; that the Council was to see all specifications, all
agreements and all documents before any final action was
taken.

Councilman Morehead asked if there was any tightening in
the specifications for temporary paving in 62-A-I; that
the temporary paving on the west side of Maine Avenue
in 61-A-I was very poor.

Councilman Holmes concurred with Mr. Morehead that the
temporary paving on Maine Avenue left much to be desired;
that temporary jobs could be made so that they were
reasonably good until the permanent repair; that it might
be well to stipulate this if needed; that this could
probably be taken care of in the existing specifications.
City Engineer Young stated that he had contacted the con-
tractor; that the temporary paving was 3/4 inch from the
surface so that when the main surface was put on there
would be a better tie in; that tomorrow they were going
to start filling them in 61-A-I) with a little finer
material in order to take out the bump; that the other
three utility trenches Los Angeles and Maine) would be
taken care of by the construction company.
Discussion followed concerning an agreement. between the
utility companies and the contractor concerning the back-
fill on trenches.
00-
Mr. Schreiner stated with regard to the interpretation
of the specifications that Mr. Fiandrick, before he went
on vacation, indicated that he wanted to meet with Mr.
Young and himself and go over the agreement between the
City and Ivor Lyons, the agreement between the City and
O'Melveny & Myers and the specifications to make sure
that there were no loose ends. He stated that in his
opinion August 21, 1963, would be the date on which the
Council could adopt the Resolution of Intention and set
a time for public hearing; that the hearing would be six
6) weeks later; that Mr. Rosetti and Mr. Thompson had
completed their work; that it was a matter of one more
meeting among the technical consultants.
Councilman Holmes asked that it be made very clear that
the estimated assessment that was sent out was only an
estimate and based on the estimated costs of the project
to give the property owners an idea of what their assess-
ments might be.
Mr. Laurence Thompson, Assessment Engineer, stated that
the notices were required by law; that it had been dis-
cussed that on any subsequent projects an information
brochure which described the project should be mailed
to every property owner within the district telling the
details involved in the district and including something
about the size of the district, its boundaries, that
there would be a public hearing for the people to express
themselves, how the assessment could be paid, where it
could be paid and what could happen If not paid for. He
further stated that he intended to have himself or one

of, his associates in the City Hall once or twice a week for
a couple of hours foi!owing the mailing of the notices so
that persons could coma in and discuss the notices if they
wished; that the brochures wouid also be passed out at the
public hearing to anyone who did no` have one. He mentioned
gnat he had assembled such a brochure for Costa Mesa and
Fountain Valley.
The Council asked that two or three of the brochures used
in Costa Mesa and Fountain Valley be mailed to the Chief
Administrative Officer.
Mr. Rosetti, of Laurence Thompson's office, suggested
that callers to the City Hall asking questions be informed
that there would be someone from the Laurence Thompson's
office in the City Hall on scheduled days to answer any
questions.
00-
Councilman Holmes stated that particular attention should
be paid in lining up the assessment and the layout of the
laterals; that this should be coordinated between the De-
sign Engineer and the Assessment Engineer.
City Engineer Young suggested sending out cards to all of
the property owners with a diagram asking where they would
want latera;s,or walking up and down the streets finding
out where the property owners wanted their laterals as was
being done in District 61-A-I.
Mr. Thompson suggested concentrating the cards on the twenty-
five foot lots.
Mr. Young stated that to his knowledge there were no twenty-
five foot lots in 62-A-I; that there would be in District
No. 3.
Councilman Holmes stated it was simple enough to get rid of
the extra laterals if it was done at the proper-time; that
this would require a combination of things, knowledge of
the Council, Engineers, of the areas by looking at the maps
and at the property physically and by sending out postcards.
Mr. Rosetti stated that there had been discussion regarding
the postcards; that everyone would have their own idea about
how it should be done and there would be delay and administra-
tive costs; that the aterals could be deleted if the
property owners brought the matter before the Council at
the hearing or even just prior to construction.
Mr. Schreiner stated in his opinion the easiest and the
fairest way would be to include the lateral problem as
part of the brochure and explain that it was encumbant
upon the property owner to look at the plans and make
sure that there were not too many laterals on their piece
of property, that it should be explained that it was too
time consuming for City forces to contact each owner
and have it brought out in the paper that Mr. Thompson
and Mr. Rosetti would be at City Hall for people to come
in and look at the plans and discuss laterals so that by
the time of the hearing there would be a list of laterals
that were questionable or should be deleted.
Mr. Sims of Ivor Lyons & Associates mentioned that during
the design of District No. 2 they had the aerial drawings
to assist them in locating the laterals.
Discussion followed the procedure for change order wherein
Mr. Schreiner brought ou that it was encumbant upon the
property owners to come in and notify the City staff of
the laterals they did not want.

COUNCILMAN HOLMES MOVED THAT THE MATTER OF WATER SETTING
ON MERCED B'=7':1'1'EN AHERN AND VINELAND BE TURNED OVER TO THE
ENGINEERING A') STREET DEPARTMENT AND THAT THEY CORRECT
THE SITUATION. COUNCiLMAN BISHOP SECONDED.
Assistant City Engineer Welch stated there were existing
curbs and gutters at this area; that it was impossible
to drain the intersection by surface flow unless several
hundred feet of curb and gutter were replaced on Vineland;
that the only real soaution was to put in catch basins at
Vineland and Merced taking the water to the wash; that an
estimated cost of this construction was a little over
$10,000.00; that the Intersection could be reworked and
keep the water from being more than about three 3) Inches;
that the nuisance water now stands about one 1) to two
2) Inches deep and backs up for approximately two hundred
200) feet; that the grade coming down Merced is less than
2/10% slope in that area.
In answer to a question by Councilwoman Taylor, Assistant
City Engineer Welch stated that a grade something less than
2/10%) was put In coming from Ahern down to this inter-
section in order to drain Ahern; that it was delivered to
this intersection as high as possible; that it was impossible
to drain Ahern and not create the existing condition.
Councilman Holmes stated that the Intersection drained
before the curbs and gutters were installed; that the
deepest part of the water that was now standing was
between Ahern and Vineland; that the curb was put in
some five to six months ago.
In answer to a question by Councilman Holmes, Assistant
City Engineer Welch stated that this area would probably
never get involved with a bond issue.
Councilman Holmes suggested taking up a few inches
diagonally across Vineland and Merced and turning the
flow into the east side of Vineiand(where there is no
curb and gutter.
City EhgineerYoung suggested that a more complete
study be made.
With the consent of the second Councilman Holmes with-
drew his motion.
COUNCILMAN HOLMES MOVED THAT THE MATTER OF THE DRAINAGE
IN THE AREA CONCERNED ON MERCED BETWEEN AHERN AND VINE-
LAND AND THE VINELAND INTERSECTION BE REFERRED TO THE

Assistant City Engineer Welch reported on the public
address system in the Council Chamber. He said that
Mr. Stephens, General Manager of the Baldwin Park
Electronic Supply, Puente Avenue,had checked over the
system and tried to resolve the feed back problem. He
said that there were several contributing factors; that
the speakers were the wrong type; that the microphones
were excellent but were the opposite type that should
be used in this particular setup; that the Mayor's
microphone was bad as far as pickup was concerned and
should be replaced. He stated that the recommendation
of Mr. Stephens and also himself) was that two new
sound column speakers be installed the type that were
installed in the auditorium) one on each side facing the
the audience, and that the acoustical tile be continued
across the room. A new microphone would be $55.40; the
sound column speakers two) would be $37.50 each or $75.00;
and the installation would not be over $50.00.
