City Clerk Backus stated that Mr. Tracy Bousman had
requested time to speak on Tract No. 29416. She stated
this tract had been finally approved but there was a
problem as to the recordation.
Mr. Tracy Bousman, 212 South First Avenue, Arcadia, stated
in the subdivision the owners dedicated a portion of Bogart
Avenue; that they found there was also a condemnation pro-
ceeding which covered the same property; that he requested
that the City abandon the condemnation proceeding inasmuch
as the title, when recorded, would pass to the City.
City Attorney Flandrick stated this related to Parcel
226 in one of the seven law suits presently pending
concerning acquisitions necessary for Sewer District
61-A-I; that it would be in order to abandon that
particular action and in addition it was suggested
that the Council authorize the Mayor and City Clerk
to sign an agreement with Henry Levin, the subdivider,
whereby Mr. Levin would guarantee the City that if there
should be anything in inverse condemnation in the amount
of our appraisal or any other amount that he would
guarantee to hold the City free and harmless.

necessary to provide a public street along said Avenue.
City Attorney Flandrick commented that the City Council
was in an unusual position as far as this street was
concerned; that this was an existing private street;
that the City had the opportunity to do one of two things
if the Council wished to accomplish what the people were
requesting; that the first would be to direct the condemna-

would not recommend; that the second possibility would be
to accept the petition and direct the City Engineer and
the Street Superintendent in the future to maintain this
street and.treat it as a public street and within a period
of five years the City would acquire a prescriptive easement
for uses as a public street so far as Marion Avenue was
concerned; that this was not a very satisfactory solution
in that the City would not acquire it immediately as a
public street; that he recommended the second course of
action.
In answer to a question by Council McCaron regarding the
owners dedicating the street, City Attorney Flandrick
stated this was one recommendation not made because it had
been his experience that the property owners in the Baldwin
Park Covina West Covina area thought they owned the
underlying fee but did not in many cases; that it would
cost $38,00 for a Title Report to determine ownership; that
in his opinion this would be an unwarranted expense.
City Attorney Flandrick stated if the City Engineer and
Street Superintendent were instructed to maintain this
street and treat it as a public street that within a
period of four or five years if it was so maintained a
resolution would be presented to the Council for adoption
to accept informally an offer of dedication as a public
street; that the City would never have a completely clear
title.
Discussion followed that presently the street was forty
140) feet in width; that it appeared there was some
dedication already; that sometime in the past there was
some feeling that the City should not accept dedication
on a street where there was no access to the dedicated
portion; that there was no policy regarding this as far
as the City Attorney was aware of; that the street north
of Marion was Chilcot.
No one spoke or came forward when Mayor Morehead asked NO ONE IN AUDIENCE
if there was anyone in the audience who was interested WHO WAS INTERESTED
in the street or who signed the petition. IN STREET OR WHO
SIGNED PETITION
Mayor Morehead asked what advantage there would be to the
property owners or to the City.
City Engineer Young stated in his opinion it would be
an advantage to the City to have it declared a public
street since there was a tract in this area which will
let this entire area start to develop.
Councilman McCaron asked if the tract had an easement
over the private street for access.
City Engineer Young stated there was an easement on
Chilcot and part of it is"; that at one time there were
all of the signatures on Bogart; that the signatures
for the dedication of Bogart for a public street were
in the hands of Pond Engineering in West Covina; that
Marion was a wider street and there were not quite
the problems involved in maintaining it as a public
street; that part of Bogart was only twenty 420) feet;
that Marion came into the center of the tract; that
Chilcot could be continued over in line with the future
street to the east of the tract and then run northerly
to Nubia.
Mayor Morehead stated he would personally think that
property owners who were interested in the City taking
over and maintaining the street would be interested
and willing to improve the street according to City
specifications and when the street was improved they

Chief Administrative Officer Nordby stated that shortly
after the Council was seated one of the Councilmen
suggested that he investigate the possibility of acquiring
some excess Flood Control property roughly north of
Pacific between Central and Badillo; that there was a
strip there ninety-one 91) feet wide and approximately
fourteen or fifteen hundred 1400 or 1500) feet deep;
that there had been several applications which had been
tentatively accepted by the Flood Control District for
the sale of this property; that the City, however, had
the first chance to acquire it; that it appeared that
this might be a good location for a public park of some
kind, perhaps a picnic grounds; that the price established
by the Flood Control District for sale to private individuals
was $.24 per square foot which makes the price for the entire
parcel approximately $21,700.00; that the City could acquire
the parcel for $.18; that the City did have sufficient funds
in the Unappropriated Surplus Fund to acquire this property.
He showed a map of the parcel.
Councilmen Morehead asked if this parcel could be considered
for a City yard some time in the future.
Chief Administrative Officer Nordby stated he would assume
there was that possibility although the parcel was very
narrow.
Councilman Morehead stated it was his understanding the
Flood Control District purchased this property for
$.05 a square foot and asked why they would not sell
it for this price plus costs involved.
Chief Administrative Officer Nordby stated from the
information he had the Flood Control District had pur-
chased the property six or eight years ago on borrowed
money; that the appreciation of the land involved plus
the interest on the borrowed money had probably inflated
the cost; that this price was based on an amortization basis
for administrative costs and so forth.
City Attorney Flandrick stated from the information he had
received the Flood Control District paid approximately
$.14 a square foot for this property in 1957 or 1958.
As there were no objections, Mayor Morehead stated this
matter would be held in abeyance until the next adjourned
meeting.

City Engineer Young presented Final Tract Map No. 29371
stating this tract was located westerly on Pacific Avenue
off of Vineland; that this was one of the tracts making
use of part of the Flood Control property; that the
proper subdivision bonds and agreements were on file;
that the cash bonds had been posted; that he recommended
that the City Council authorize the necessary officials
to sign the Tract Map.

which would be from Francisquito westerly almost to the wash;
that the right-of-way access, plans and specifications RAMONA BLVD. GAS TAX
had been approved by the State; that there would be an IMPROVEMENT PROJECT
eighty 801 foot right-of-way; that there would be no
parking on the portion the City obtained from the Pacific
Electric right-of-way; that there would be a shoulder;
that there was no signalization of Francisquito and Ramona
Boulevard proposed at this time; that it was proposed for
the future.
Discussion followed.
COUNCILWOMAN GREGORY MOVED THAT THIS MATTER BE HELD OVER
FOR CLARIFICATION FROM CITY ATTORNEY FLANDRICK AND CITY
ENGINEER YOUNG.
In answer to a question by Councilman McCaron, Council-
woman Gregory stated there was nothing written in the
Agenda folders on this matter.
City Attorney Flandrick stated he could not make any
recommendation as to the acquisition of right-of-way; that
the only problem he knew of was the agreement with Pacific
Electric and he understood that was now in the possession
of the City Clerk as a signed and executed agreement; that
this would be a slope easement.
City Engineer Young stated he would have the written
information by the next meeting.

City Engineer Young reviewed his report on the request by REQUEST BY M.T.A.
the Metropolitan Transit Authority for a bus stop on FOR BUS STOP ON
Frazier Street east of Bess Avenue stating that the FRAZIER ST. EAST OF
Traffic Committee recommended that the request be denied BESS AVE.
on the basis that the on-coming traffic from Frazier
Street was rather fast and heavy, and that the bus stop,
while it would be adjacent to a street stop,
would still block the street so that no other traffic
could pass, thus creating an unsafe condition as the
street was only thirty-two 32) feet wide at this
particular point.
Discussion followed.

Item No. I under the Chief Administrative Officer and
Item No. 4 under the City Engineer were considered at
this time.
Chief Administrative Officer Nordby reviewed his report REPORT RE CONSIDERA-
regarding the consideration of 1911 Act procedure for TION OF 1911 ACT
Sewer District No. 64-A-I stating that he was Inclined PROCEDURE FOR 64-A-1
to favor the 1911 Act. He passed to the Council informa-
tion that he had received on the 1911 Act including a
booklet prepared by McKensie-Brown.
City Attorney Flandrick stated that each member of the
Council had received a copy of memorandum he and Mr.
Charles Martin had prepared.
Mr. Charles R. Martin, Attorney at Law, San Marino, CHAS. R. MARTIN,
California, stated he was a party to the contract ATTY. AT LAW,
entered into by and between the City of Baldwin Park San Marino, Calif.
and the firm of Martin and Flandrick to act as Special
Counsel for Assessment District 64-A-1. He stated that
in that capacity they were recommending that the Council
change from the 1913 Improvement Act to the 1911 Improve-
ment Act for the reasons set forth in the memorandum; that
both of the Acts were more than fifty years old and had
served well; that, in their opinion, the 1911 Improvement
Act had three distinct advantages in this case; that first
from the standpoint of public relation in that the Council
would afford to the people who were to be assessed two
hearings rather than one and in that regard give them a
better opportunity to express their feelings, viewpoints,
protests and other matters; that it would be easy for the
Council to consider the 1913 Act which was a one hearing
procedure; that it was certainly a lot more expeditious and
certainly a lot less trouble for the Council to have the
protestants to come once rather then twice but they had
found from the public relations standpoint that if the
electors were given the chance to come twice and protest
first on the issue itself of whether the project was to go
in and secondly on the amount of money; that it effected
the Council's decisions, in their opinion, in such matters
as change orders and supplemental assessments as set forth
in the memorandum and their experience and recommendation
was that they thought the Council would be happier from a
public relations standpoint with the 1911 Act; that in their
opinion, the Council would be happier from a time standpoint
in that it would save some four months timing in going ahead
with this particular district and any other districts the
Council wished to participate in including the district
coming up later this evening after which they also recommended
the 1911 Act; that the third directly related, of course, to
time because time was money in that it would save the City
and the electors money first from the standpoint of saving
time; that costs went up in a four month period and interest
ran in a four month period; that remember under the 1913
Act the taxpayers became liable for their bonds and started
paying interest immeldately regardless of how long it took
to put in the project; that under the 1911 Act the project
was completed before interest commenced; and for that reason,
in their opinion, the taxpayers were generally happier paying
less interest for a shorter period of time, paying it only
after they see what they had and were paying for rather than
paying in advance; that the final point was, that while they
could not promise any results and probably in fact could
guarantee a negative result as far as the Stone & Youngberg
contract entered into by and between this City some years
ago; that they felt it related specifically to the 1913 Act
and as financial consultants they became necessary in the
1913 Act or some financial consultants became necessary;
that it was their opinion that no such financial consultant
was necessary or appropriate in connection with the 1911
Act; that while they did not feel that the contract might
necessarily be avoided by switching to the 1911 Act, they
felt if it was to be evOii 4W%%J V tt* ft3 teh to the 1911 Act

relations, time and money they recommended the 1911 Act
for 64-A-I and also the Chevalier District coming up later
this evening.
City Attorney Flandrick stated that Mr. Ivor Lyons was in
the audience; that he had discussed the situation concern-
ing the District with Mr. Lyons and his comments and
thoughts were commented upon in the memorandum; that Mr.
Lyons had indicated if the Council determined that the
1911 Act was the appropriate Act for the establishing of
this District; that in forty-five 45) days the plans
and specifications would be presented to the Council,
the District would then be formed, a public hearing would
be set and considered. He stated under the 1913 Act
there would be a delay of at least another six to nine
months.
Mr. Ivor Lyons stated this was correct.
City Attorney Flandrick stated this became important as
Mr. Martin had indicated, because as of the first of the
year and again as of the first of May there would be salary
increases as far as the construction work was concerned;
that obviously there would also be material increases if
there was a salary increase; that he thought that in sum
and substance Mr. Lyons also recommends the 1911 Act.
Mayor Morehead asked how would the 1911 Act expedite the
drawings of the district.
Mr. Martin stated the 1913 Act hearing was a single
hearing involving both the project, the plans and
specifications, and the assessment or the spread of that
assessment thus involving not only a double hearing or
dual hearing but also dual plans and dual engineering
detail by Mr. Lyons; that in other words he must not only
draw his plans and specifications for the installation but
he must spread the assessment and determine the engineering
as far as that was concerned; that if the 1911 Act was
followed the plans and specifications could be completed
within forty-five 45) days; that if the City waited until
he spread the assessment, by using the 1913 Act, there would
be another four month wait because of that engineering.
Mr. Lyons stated that was correct; that if the Council
adopted the 1911 Act in forty-five 45) days he could
present construction drawings to the Council; that the
Council could approve them and have the public hearing
and let the contract and start constructing the job;
that while the job was under construction then the assess-
ment diagrams would be completed; that the Assessment
Engineer would do his work; that the Legal Counsel would
do their work; that if the Council used the 1913 Act all
of these phases had to be completed before construction
could start.
in answer to a question by Mayor Morehead, Wr. Martin
stated as soon as the hearing was held, if it was not
protested out, the call for bids could go out, the
contract let and construction started; that no money
was received and the contractor was not paid until the
job was completed and the final costs were ascertained;
that then another hearing was held to determine the
spread of the assessment.
In answer to a question by Mayor Morehead, Mr. Martin
stated the bid for the contract might or might not be
the final cost depending on change orders, extras and
such things that generally and usually come into these
matters.

City Attorney Flandrick stated he would recommend that any
contract let under the 1911 Act would have provision for
assignment.
Mr. Martin asked Mr. Lyons if in his experience the Council
would be narrowing the field of bidders by the 1911 Act or
the 1913 Act.
Mr. Lyons stated he did not think so; that he felt on
this particular project, 64-A-I, with a construction cost
of between 2 and 2J million dollars there would be at
least a dozen responsible bidders.
Mayor Morehead asked if the Council decided on the 1911
Act when would the Legal Counsel and the Engineer of
Work receive their money.
Mr. Martin stated that Mr. Lyons already had a contract
with the City for the payment of his costs; that his firm
had a contract only for the 1913 Act and did not have a
contract for the 1911 Act or for payment under the 1911
Act; that this would have to be worked out; that these
fees were part of the incidental expenses and were financed
by the contractor.
In answer to a question by Mayor Morehead, Mr. Lyons
stated he had a valid contract with the City whether the
City went 1911 or 1913 Act; that he favored the 1911 Act;
that he favored it on the first district and spoke his
piece; that whichever way the City chose to go was perfectly
alright with him; that he did feel that there was a modicule
of advantage to the City, the longer the job was delayed the
more it was going to cost; that every six months and
possibly every three months there would be a wage increase.
He stated he wished to cite a terrible example; that they
had just taken bids on a job in the City of Needles which
was completed thirteen months ago; that it was kicked
around City Hall for thirteen months before it was put
out to bid; that during that time there was a 7% increase
in labor and a 4% Increase in materials; or a total of 11%
increase in construction cost; that the same thing would
apply to Baldwin Park; that if the City went the 1911 Act
and got into construction fairly quickly he knew the City
would avoid one and he thought the City might avoid two
rounds of wage increases; that the City could save possibly
5% of 2 million dollars which was at least $100,000.00; that
this would more than offset any additional costs involved
with the 1911 Act because the contractor had to carry the
paper until the job was completed; that he honestly felt
there was a distinct financial advantage to the City in
using the 1911 Act.
Discussion followed regarding the Stone & Youngberg con-
tract wherein Mr. Martin stated it was their opinion the
contract was not wisely worded some years ago; that it
was entirely possible even under the 1911 Act the City
might still have to pay Stone & Youngberg; that there
would be no necessity for financial consultants under the
1911 Act proceeding; that there would be no advice to give.
City Attorney Flandrick stated he did not want the Council
to decide this issue if they were not ready to decide it
but he wanted to again point out, as Mr. Martin had indicated,
that time was money; that if the Council delayed this
matter for another month or sixty days time would be lost.
It was decided to continue this matter to the adjourned HELD OVER TO ADJ.

City Attorney Flandrick stated Mr. Martin had prepared the DOCUMENTS RE
proper documents in connection with Chevalier District-1964. CHEVALIER DISTRICT-
He passed out the material to the Council. 1964
Mr. Charles Martin stated they had received a communica-
tion from the Assistant City Engineer, Mr. Fogle, to
expedite the Chevalier Avenue project so far as the
paving, curbs, gutters and sidewalks were concerned; that
they had prepared the necessary documents as their liking
under the 1911 Act proceeding; that they could switch this
to a 1913 Act if the Council desired; that the first page
of the documents presented'ses a Certificate of the Engineer
indicating that a petition had been filed and the requisite
60% of the area had signed the petition and were ready to
install the improvements and pay for the improvements for
Chevalier Avenue and abutting streets.
City Attorney Flandrick stated this was the petition that
was not in order at the last meeting in that it failed to
contain the nature of the work and the area to be included;
that this had been remedied by Mr. Fogle and had again
been circulated and was now in order.
Assistant Engineer Fogle stated this was correct.
Mr. Martin stated the Engineer, if he would sign the petition
tonight, authorized the Council to proceed with the second
document being a Resolution declaring its intention to pro-
ceed with a Special Assessment Proceeding on this particular
District, giving it a name and the other matters appurtenant
to initiating the project; that the second resolution would
be a resolution appointing an Engineer of Work; that in this
case it would be the City Engineer; that it was felt and
recommended by the administration because this was a small
job and could be handled with the administrative staff and
it would not be necessary to hire outside Engineering
Services and there would be no extra payment or cost for
that matter; that the third resolution was a resolution
appointing Special Counsel and he understood that the
arrangement was to appoint the firm of Martin, Stevens and
Flandrick as Special Counsel for the processing of this
district either under the 1911 Act or 1913 Act; that follow-
ing that was the usual agreement of the same type and nature
of which they had with the City with regard to the 64-A-1
project listing the fees as 2% with a minimum guarantee of
$500.00; that there was an estimate of $25,000.00 maximum
on this project, which involved the street, curbs, gutters,
sidewalks and driveway approaches; that the contract was
in the usual form and in the form which they already had
on the other project; that the next resolution was a
resolution ordering the plans and specifications; that
the plans and specifications had been prepared and the
following resolution would be a resolution accepting those
plans and specifications; that following that was the
Engineer's estimate of the cost of the project which he
did not have which apparently the Engineer did have or
would have before the project proceeded too far; that
proceeding from there would be the resolution of inten-
tion to create this district pursuant to the 1911 Act
and for the installation of the project, the bonds and so
forth, the formation of the district appurtenant to the
work that was to be done; that this was a four page resolu-
tion and was to be posted and published in the usual manner
and finally the Notice of Improvement which was posted on
the property. He stated those would be the matters taken
up this evening and processed as the initiation of a 1911 Act
Project.
Mayor Morehead asked if it was the property owners intention
to process this under the 1911 Act.
City Engineer Young stated that was correct.

Í«Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council
Discussion followed regarding the construction costs and
change,,. orders.
Mr'. Martin stated that before the hearing was held there
was an Engineer's Estimate.
Mayor Morehead asked the disadvantages of the 1911 Improve
ment Act.
Mr. Martin-stated the disadvantages, if there were any..
were two; that one, it might be argued that the 1913 bonds
might be sold for a lesser interest than. the 1911 bonds
which almost always sell for 6% interest, the 1913 bonds
were bid and the best bid takes it and that might in
some cases be 5J%, 5% or it could, depending upon how
valuable they were 41%, therefore there was a possibility
of paying less interest; that on the other hand the people
had been paying it generally for a year or eighteen months
longer because they would start paying it now; that if
there was an interest advantage as far as the rate was
concerned it was lost by the extra year or year and one-half
that they had been paying; that thb-other advantage generally
claimed is that the 1913 Act permitted one thing that the
1911 Act did not and that was a multiplicity contract; that
you could let portion A to contractor 1, portion B to con-
tractor 2 and so forth; that this was a distinct advantage
in a matter such as a road where the grading would be let
to someone, the subbase to someone else; that on a sewer
project generally it was not an advantage because one prime
contractor was wanted.
Mr. Martin further stated that the 1911 Act was the only
Act that permitted the people to protest against a
particular phase of the project such as he trampled my
tree or he did not put the driveway apron back in; that
under the 1913 Act the people did not have that opportunity
because their only hearing was before it ever got off the
ground; that under the 1911 Act they did have this extra
right; that they were also informed of the dollar amount
they would have to pay; that they then had thirty days in
which to make the payment in cash or it went to bond; that
generally speaking some sixty days after the project had
been completed the people were informed of their cost and
the matter went to bond and they started to pay their interest.
Mr. Lyons stated that construction time was estimated at
eight 81 months from the award of the contract.
Mr. Martin stated that allowing for contingencies and
for the two or three months it took to award the contract
the time period would be close to a year.
Discussion followed that the second hearing was only for
the spread of the assessment and the determination of
whether or not the project was properly completed; that
the contractor financed the project until the project
was completed.
Mr. Martin stated it had been claimed that the contractor,
because he did bear the burden of the front money, did
add to his bid the cost to himself for the front money;
that the pamphlets the Council had indicated it was still
a push financially; that there was no advantage financially
to the 1911 or 1913 Act insofar as the interest that the
people pay or the money that they would pay; that the
advantage lay only in timing, and public relations and the
money saved.,in the time savings.
Discussion followed that the field of bidders would be
narrowed because the contractor had to finance himself
until the project was completed, however only well qualified
and experienced bidders would be wanted on a project of this
size; that they would have to be bonded.
