He recommended that the City Council approve a refund to Halco Associates, in the amount of $110.00 for the reason that in effect they had been charged twice for sewer service. Councilwoman Gregory stated in her opinion the hooking up to the easement was a convenience for this man; that the house was relocated on February 18, 1965; that there was a lot split also; that it appeared that Halco had made arrangements with the builder who was building on Benham to put the sewer through the property on Benham; that he could have put in a cess pool or septic tank knowing full well within the year the sewer was going down Stewart; that this house had been relocated on the interior lot; that there could still be another house in the front; that the houses on Benham were not in 64-A-I; that they tied into the Merced Avenue sewer built by Monarch Estates. City Engineer French stated it was true this was a lot split No. 636); that the sewer line that he tied into was built by the subdivider; that it ran from Benham to Cutler and across Stewart; that when the assessment dis- trict was constructed the line was put up Stewart and intercepted this main line; that when the line went across the lot by the subdivider he-promised these people a right to use this line at no cost; that the City had an ordinance that would not allow this; that they were required to pay a connection fee no matter what sewer they hook up to; that further this man was included in 64-A-I and he filed a protest; that the recommendation of the Assessment Engineer was that primary service to this property was in fact in Stewart not in the sewer that went in the easement along his property and therefore he should be assessed and was assessed a full assessment against this piece of property as part of 64-A-I; that because he was assessed as part of 64-A-I he felt it was unfair to pay the connection fee that had been adopted by the City for service to private lines or lines where the people were not in the district and had ask for a refund; that it was his feeling that in effect he had paid two assessments; one for connection to a line and one for being in a district. Further discussion followed. Councilman McCaron stated it appeared that Halco had paid a full assessment that would be equitable to other properties and that the $110.00 would be in excess.

City Clerk Balkus stated that proper publication, postings and mailings had been accomplished. Planning Director Chivetta presented a resume of the case and stated the Planning Commission had adopted Resolution No. PC 66-7 on February 3, 1966 recommending approval of the zone change from R-2 Zone to M-R Zone. He pointed out the map on the wall showing the existing zoning of the area. Councilman McCaron asked if the homes in the residential area were occupied at the present time. Planning Director Chivetta stated they were occupied; that the buildings constructed on Live Oak back right up to the rear property lines; that there were complaints on the noises carrying from the M-I into the R-2; that there were mixed uses now being placed on two or three of the properties where they were using the garage for a cabinet shop or machine shop or something of this type. Councilwoman Gregory asked which came first, the M-R or the residential; that she understood the homes were at least twelve 1121 years old; that they were very well kept. Planning Director Chivetta stated the P" Zoning was a classification of the City prior to the adoption of the present Zoning Code which was adopted in 1964; that the properties were constructed in this area on P" Zone property as far as he could ascertain prior to the Code in 1964; that there might have been another Code that Continued) March 2, 1966 Page 7 2794 ORD.

Councilwoman Gregory asked what this would do to the homes tax wise. Planning Director Chivetta stated if the zone was changed the property could be used for manufacturing uses so therefore the taxes could increase. City Attorney Flandrick stated that the taxes may in- crease however the Assessor generally looks to the use rather than the zone. Councilman McCaron stated it would put the residents in a position where they would have to ask for a zone variance for home improvements; that unless there had been an indication that this property was to be used for M-R uses in his opinion the request was premature excepting for possibly a portion of it if the Water Company needed it to complete their development. Planning Director Chivetta stated there was some controversy over the point as to whether or not the Water Company was exempt from municipal regulations. Councilman McCaron stated, in his opinion, the area developed with homes at the present time should be deleted from the request and consider the other portion; that the home owners should have the right to continue to develop their property as R-I until such time as there was a definite indication that the homes were to be abandoned and used for some other purpose. Councilwoman Gregory asked if the plumbing, business next to the Water Company that jutted down-into Joanbridge was there before the City required a wall. Planning Director Chivetta stated they were existing prior to the adoption of the 1964 Zoning Ordinance; that it was a legal nonconforming use. Councilwoman Gregory asked if the people could petition for a block wall. Planning Director Chivetta stated they could petition the Council to declare the property a possible nuisance. City Engineer French stated the thirty 30) foot dedication on Joanbridge had been made by the Water Company. As there was no one in the audience desiring to speak in behalf of or in opposition to Z-286, Mayor Crites declared the public hearing closed.

City Attorney Flandrick stated the zoning was R-I. Mr. Petrofanis stated there were three houses on the lot next to this one. Planning Director Chivetta stated it was possible that there had been a lot split which created three 3) single family lots. He further stated that only one single family home could be put on the lot at 4647 Bresee Avenue regardless of the size unless the property was divided so that each lot being created would front on a fully dedicated and public thoroughfare.

Special Enforcement Officer Palmer stated the title report indicated the address as 4934 Marion; that this property was included in Lot Split No. 594. Councilman McCaron stated the houses next to it were new; that it did not seem reasonable that this house should be abandoned; that there must be some extenuating circum- stances; that this house could be rehabilitated rather than removed.

Building Superintendent Kalbfleisch stated the building could be rehabilitated; that it was in bad shape at the present time; that there was evidence of children playing in the building.

City Attorney Flandrick stated that property postings and mailings had been accomplished. City Attorney Flandrick stated the Council had a staff report relating to this property. He passed to the Council Exhibit A which consisted of five 5) pictures of the subject property stating that Special Enforce- ment Officer Palmer had examined the property late this date and it was still in the same condition as shown in the pictures. City Clerk Balkus administered the oath. Mr. Vince Iverson stated he was Real Estate Coordinator for Prudential Savings and Loan, the present owner of this property; that this property was being sold and was in escrow; that it would probably take from thirty 30) to sixty 601 days to close the deal; that money had been appropriated and commitments had been made as far as developing the property, tearing this house down and erecting new buildings; that he requested additional time. City Attorney Flandrick asked if there were any provisions in the escrow instructions for the demolition of this structure. Mr. Iverson stated they had made corrrnitments for new buildings to be going on this property; that naturally if they had made the commitments the structure would have to come off. In answer to a question by Councilman McCaron, Mr. Iverson stated there was no advantage in holding the building; that it would be the buyers obligation to take the house down; that there was no consideration being paid for the house, just the land. Councilman McCaron asked if sixty 60) days would be ample to close the escrow. Mr. Iverson stated in case it was not we" would still take it out of there within sixty 60) days or sooner. City Attorney Flandrick asked if it was possible for Prudential Savings and Loan to set aside in a separate account the sum of perhaps $750.00 guaranting that this building would be demolished either by Prudential or the purchaser within thirty 30) or sixty 60) days as a part of the escrow. Mr. Iverson stated he did not feel that this should be necessary; that Prudential was not lacking of funds. City Attorney Flandrick asked if Prudential had notified the prospective purchaser of the proceedings. March 2, 1966 Page 14 MOTION MADE AND CARRIED THAT COUNCIL CONTINUE P.H.

He stated that the Plan- ning Commission had adopted Resolution No. PC 66-II on r- t br iary 23, 1966, reconuneod if g denial of Tentative Tract No. 25587; that the staff recommendation was that the Council consider the feasibility of Torrey Street continuing through to Foster Avenue or cut--de-sating as proposed by the applicant; that the staff was of the opinion that either proposal was applicable. He pointed out the map on the wall stating it contained seven 7) parcels. Mr. Howard Sutterfield, 3779 North Foster Avenue, Baldwin Park, stated his reason for appearing was to present his views and supporting data on why Tract No. 25587 should be approved as presented; that the tract map called for the extension and cul-de-sacing of Torrey Street to provide frontage and lot sizes well in excess of the minimum standards for five 5) R-I single family lots and two 2) 8,000 square +C®It:r 4 nued TENT.

He read the first reason for recommending denial stating that a reason such as this was difficult to refute since the Planning Commis- sion did not bother to indicate where the map was not consistent with the General Plan; that the tract map as proposed conformed in every respect to established criteria for lot size, for street frontage and would provide adequate dedications and improvements; that if the Planning Commis- sion referred to the street pattern proposed he could assure the Council, and he believed the staff would sub- stantiate, that the General Plan did not require Torrey Street to continue through to Foster Avenue; that there had been no street pattern adopted for the area since the adoption of the General Plan therefore the Council was at liberty this evening to take whatever action made sense both legally and morally as to what happened to Torrey Street. He read the second reason of tls~o' Planning Commis- sion for recommending denial stating ag`in that the develop- ment pattern for Torrey Street appeared to be as flexible as the Council wished to make it; that the fact that it now deadended at the rear of his property in no way suggested that it should or for that matter should not continue or that it should or should not cul-de-sac as proposed yet possibly because one of the two previous tract maps which subdivided the adjacent property creating Torrey Street from Earl Avenue to its present terminus may have shown Torrey extending to Foster; that this did not make it so nor should it; that he submitted to the Council that Torrey Street should not continue through to Foster because it was an unwise and uneconomical land use; that his subdivision as proposed contained seven 17) lots however Lots I and 2 were considered R-2 and should this zone not be granted the subdivision map would of necessity be revised to make three 3) lots out of the Foster frontage; that this meant that the tract map actually would meet every conceivable R-I standard now in effect and net eight 8) very n$ce lots; that if Torrey Street were required to continue through to Foster Avenue the development costs for street improvements and sewers would to increased approximately one-third and the lot yield would be reduced from eight lots to six lots; that assuming $3,000.00 would cover the added costs of improve- ments and valuing improved lots at only $5,000.00 this would mean that to continue Torrey Street to Foster would cost someone an added $13,000.00 for a completed half street; that he could not believe that the City would desire to impose such an unrealistic demand on a single development of this size; that he was already, as all subdividers did, dedicating adequate street and making street improvements valued in excess of $8,000.00 at no cost to the City; that he could not do more; that in addition to not being necessary, continuation of the street was unwise because of the offset intersection and the traffic hazard created; Foster Avenue had almost developed into a secondary thoroughfare and to open this block long residential street into it was not, in his opinion, good planning; that the property owners residing on this section of Torrey Street were definitely opposed to continuation of the street and their reasons were expressed to the Planning Commission in a letter dated February 23, 1966, which he read in full; that the Planning Commission was not clear in stating what service was referred to in its second reason for denial; that utility service would be Continued) BIB] 39576-U01 1966-U02 03-U02 02-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9994-U03 FO116938-U03 DO116947-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 5/5/2008-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1966 03 02 CC MINHÄ—@¸—0ÎÍ«2$ I rJ Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council March 2, 1966 Page 17 adequately provided in the street or rear of the lots by easement, however it was doubtful that the Planning Commission was referring to this type of service; that more probably the reference was made to emergency service such as fire, ambulance and police; that he did not see any problem here; that if there would be a problem it must also exist now; that they could see a definite improve- ment in traffic circulation with the installation of the large cul-de-sac as proposed. He read the third reason of the Planning Commission for recommending denial stating that this was not the case; that careful con$;ideration had been given to permit not only a logical but the most economical use of the adjacent land which was actually to the south- east rather than the northeast; that he was not proposing that his neighbor develop his land in any given way but MAPS PRESENTED RE he would like to present maps to show how it could develop LAND TO NE acceptably and consistent v:ith the proposed development of his own property; that the map would show that to con- tinue the street to Foster would cost his neighbor one lot. He also presented a map showing the continuation of MAP PRESENTED SHOW- the street stating that it would cost his neighbor one lot ING CONTINUATION plus added costs for unnecessary improvements or perhaps OF STREET as much as $8,000.00; that this cost added to his $!3,000.00 loss meant that it would cost two small property owners, or the taxpayers of Baldwin Park, $21,000.00 to satisfy what amounted to him as an unnecessary and even undesirable Planning Commission demand; that in conclusion Ralph Brooks and he had worked diligently for many months consulting frequently with City Planning and Engineering Departments so that they could present a better than average subdivision proposal; that he had been particularly concerned that he not present a plan that would in any way place the Commission or the Council in a position of compromise; that this subdivision must surely stand on its merits; that he asked nothing more but nothing less than an objective appraisal of that which was proposed. Mr. Ralph Brooks, 2138 East Huntington Drive, Duarte RALPH BROOKS, 2138 stated he wanted to discuss the subdivision from a design E. Huntington Dr., standpoint; that they felt that the layout they presented Duarte made a much better use of.the land than any other plan that could be devised; that if the street should go through as proposed by the Planning Commission it would create narrow deep lots with a lot of back yard area which they did not think was nearly as desirable as the plan submitted; that as far as he knew the staff did not recommend that the street go through there; that he saw no possible reason for extending the street through; that he did not think anything would be accomplished by it but it would disturb the environment of a small community created around a cul-de-sac which eliminated any traffic that had no business in the area; that they felt the plan submitted was a much better layout for the City as well as the subdivider. Councilman McCaron asked what the staff recommendation was on this. Mr. Sutterfield stated he was of the opinion that the staff was in agreement with what was being proposed; that he personally would like to see a direct question ask of them as to whether or not they feel the street should or should not go through. Councilman McCaron asked if the improvements on Lot I were to remain. Mr. Sutterfield stated the lot was improved; that there would be a relocation of a garage building that was now on Lot 4 to Lot l; that another problem with the street going through would be that there would be the cost of relocating two houses in order to property develop the street; that it was his intention for the house to remain.

City Engineer French stated it did not meet the clean standard of a cul-de-sac found in the standard books; that it was a perfectly acceptable design of a cul-de-sac; that it provided a larger turning area than was required by the City's standare's;thet this i.'as in excess of the City's standards; that he would say the City's standards were minimum. Mr. Sutterfield stated the cul-de.-sac lots had forty-five and thirty-five foot frontages; that according to R-I standards right now ha could have pulled the cul-de-sac around and narrowed it down and b•-ought the lots down to a twenty-five 25) foot frontage; that pie had eliberately made this larger in order to make it more acceptable and give a turn around radius prior to the development of the other half of the cut de-sac; that he had bac'tod the cul-de-sac up which was actually money out o' his pocket for added development costs in order to give the minimum thirty-five 35) foot frontage and more turning area for the cul-de-sac until the other property developed. In answer to a question by Councilman McCaron, Mr, Butter- field stated the R-2 for Lot!; I aid 2 s not contingent upon a change of zone, that as he saw it the subdivi3ion map could be approved with these ots aS they were; that he had appealed the zone change because the general plan called for medium density; that he felt the zone change was consistent; that he had also included 100' by 129' to the north of this where he lived on the cornet of Foster and Athol in order to tie this to.}ether to keep it from being less of a spot zoning situation; that he felt the map could be approved since it was a tentative tract map; that if he was not successful in his zone change request prior to finalizing this tract map he would want to make some lot changes on the front property and make three R-I lots; that it was true that the existing souse would occupy a portion of two of those lots; that fie would he willing to sign a document indicating that nether of the lots would be sold as long as that house occupied any portion of them; that he would be able to develop the third lot on the Foster frontage and leave the two lots then occupied by one house until such time as he could relocate that house on one of the other lots prior to building on the third lot. City Attorney Flandrick stated the staff did agree that the zoning would have no bearing on the map; that it was designed now for R-I standards. Councilman Morehead stated he did not agree with the Planning Commission in their thinking regarding the continuation of Torrey; that to him it would certainly disturb at least two lots on the applicant's property and it would also disturb the development of the property adjacent to the applicant, Tract No. 8805; that it would certainly create a jog in Torrey Street; that he could not think of any other street where a new street was cut in without being completely aligned; that to put in a street without being aligned with such an offset as that he did not think would be good planning; that he did not see anything wrong with the tract at the present time. Councilwoman Gregory stated there were quite a few jogs in the streets of Baldwin Park; that there was one on Joanbridge probably not quite like this but certainly detrimental; that she could point to many cities in this area where this was something that they required, streets that wind around and jog in all directions, were required in the better home areas; that she could not agree that this was not a sharp jog by any means; that there were people that had come before the Council with the same Continued) BIB] 39576-U01 1966-U02 03-U02 02-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9994-U03 FO116938-U03 DO116947-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 5/5/2008-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1966 03 02 CC MINHÄ—@¸—0ÎÍ«2806 Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council March 2, 1966 Page 19 recommendation, such as Mrs. Chamption; that the Council had requested quite a large piece of property from her to continue a street for new homes that were not even Mrs. Champion's concern; that the Council held her to this and also required curbs, gutters, sidewalks, etc.; that many other people had come before the Council in this require- ment; that the Council had been talking about the streets that went to no where; that the street did end at this particularly piece of property and it could go out to Foster and become a street in fact rather than just a deadend; that she believed this was what the Council had been talking about for the last two years; trying to get the streets through to go somewhere and not just deadend; that the Council had been forcing people to do this for the past two years; that she could see that the Planning Commission had been abiding by that rule and trying to get the streets through for circulation of traffic; that she was sure that Mr. Sutterfield himself had asked people who had come before him in his position as Planning Commissioner; that she could not see that the Council could make an exception here; that she thought that his plan was feasible if there was no street that deadended right at his property; that the land use was good but there was a street there and it did not make at least a difference to her in the fact that the Council had been doing this very thing to other people in Baldwin Park; that there was a street there and it should continue. Mayor Crites stated there was a point of difference with the one case that Councilwoman Gregory had mentioned; that there were seven 7) parcels of land involved here which was a little different than a lot split situation which was the case in the Champion-Lincoln presentation. Councilwoman Gregory stated that Mrs. Champion was asked to give up an amount of land sufficient to build a house on. Councilman McCaron stated it appeared that putting the street through did make nicer looking lots, larger sized lots, but it did deny the applicant full use of the property; that as far as the jog in the street was con- cerned it did not make any difference in this case because the street on the opposite side did not lead anywhere so it would not be affected by a jog; that a jog normally was only supposed to be around twenty-five 25) feet to be acceptable; that in this case a jog larger just meant egress and ingress from Foster to Foster itself for the homes that would be on Torrey; that it was not an excessively long cul-de-sac; that Loma Lane was con- siderably longer than this would be and circulation would be desired one way or the other; that it was a larger area to develop. He asked how long Torrey would be with this development. City Engineer French stated it would not be over five hundred feet; that it was approximately four hundred fifty 450) to four hundred seventy-five 475) feet; that it was not a very long reach. Councilman McCaron asked how long Corak Street would be if it was allowed to develop into a cul-de-sac street including Loma Lane. Planning Director Chivetta stated six hundred 600) feet along Corak if it was a cul-de-sac but it could not be a cul-de-sac because the property had been split into three parcels; that there were three new single family dwellings constructed; that this portion of Loma Lane had been dedicated and improved; that it was a full sixty 60) foot right-of-way at this location; that Torrey Street coming in was practically four hundred 1400) feet in length at this point; that the applicant's proposal Continued) BIB] 39576-U01 1966-U02 03-U02 02-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9994-U03 FO116938-U03 DO116947-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 5/5/2008-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1966 03 02 CC MINHÄ—@¸—0ÎÍ«2-8O'7 Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park,City Council would increase it approximately another one hundred 1100) to one hundred fifty 150) feet; that the standards for a cul-de-sac were usually a maximum of about five hundred 500) feet. City Engineer French stated it would not be an excessive length. Planning Director Chivetta stated it was a little over the standard but it was not excessive. COUNCILWOMAN GREGORY MOVED FOR REASONS OF THE BETTER STREET DESIGN AND THE TRAFFIC FLOW THAT THE CITY COUNCIL CONCUR WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION AND DENY TENTATIVE TRACT NO. 25587. Councilman McCaron stated it would appear on the land the way it was cut up to put the street through would require the applicant to have lot areas way in excess of those in the vicinity especially the balance of Torrey Street which would penalize him considerably in view of the fact that he would be supplying equal amount of ground; that the only thing he would not like about it was the fact that he would not want to approve this as was just to concur with any R-2 development; that he did not want to give any effect that he would be agreeable to accepting this as a first step toward R-2 development on the Foster Street frontage; that the entire area was R-.l and that would be the only objection he would have at the present time. City Attorney Flandrick commented if the Council were to approve the tract map as submitted that anything that Mr. Sutterfield might like to do with reference to pro- posed Lots I and 2 in terms of dividing them into three parcels would be subject to the Council's future action; that it was not something that was to be approved tonight; that if it were to be approved it would be on the basis of a seven lot R-I subdivision without reference to any R-2. The motion was declared dead for lack of a second. Councilman McCaron stated it would appear that due to the fact that there was improvements on Foster Avenue they were to remain and this would be the least disturbing development at the present time, as presented; that to put a street through would require removal of some of the improvements. He stated the Council did not have suggested conditions for approval.

She asked if the City Engineer had any informa- BELOW STEWART tion as to when these would be relocated; that this hazardous condition had remained for months. City Engineer French stated he had ordered them out prior to the improvements; that they had been notified in writing three times; that telephone was the only one on the pole; that it was strictly a work load with them. Councilwoman Gregory suggested that the Chief Administra- tive Officer or the City Attorney write a letter to them to see if these could not be moved. City Engineer French stated he would get in touch with the telephone company again by letter and by telephone and advise them that the Council was going to take legal action if they do not move the poles. Councilwoman Gregory stated the City could be sued if someone ran into these poles. Further discussion followed wherein City Attorney Flandrick stated in addition he would be happy to direct a letter to the General Counsel in Santa Monica. 00- Councilwoman Gregory read a letter which the Council had received from Mrs. John Carroll Gibson dated February 14, 1966, regarding the removal of palm trees on Pacific by the City of West Covina and requesting that some action be taken to preserve the palm trees on Pacific Avenue in Baldwin Park. She stated she was also quite saddened and shocked to see them come down but she realized too that West Covina had done quite a bit in the past in preserving the trees on Lark Ellen; that on this street many of the trees had been relocated at a cost of approximately $350.00 per tree. She stated that Baldwin Park had approximately twenty-seven 27) of these very lovely trees on Palm, Walnut and Merced and scattered throughout Baldwin Park; that there was a future In Baldwin Park as to perk, and recreation one day within the City; that there were some landscaping problems Continued) CITY ENGR.

Mayor Crites stated this could very well be in the area of planning for improvements that was suggested some months ago as part of the Planning Department budget for the future; that several things were mentioned about long range planning to include.such things. as a civic center and beautification. Councilwoman Gregory asked Chief Administrative Officer Nordby if the budgeting could begin within this budget. Chief Administrative Officer Nordby stated that most of the Departments had submitted their request for the coming year; that he had not reviewed them yet; that the problem this City had warp monei; that he had an old philosophy that there were no w sources of revenue; that the same people wee i-,jued; that whatever shift the Council desired the srcff would try to conform to; that he concurred with Mrs. Gregory that everything possible should be done to beautify the City; that the trees certainly would be considered. Councilwoman Gregory stated along with this that'the survey should be taker: as to how many trees there were a.'i where they were and where the street widening pro- gram would be coming; that if there. were trees in the way this was the reason for the budgeting now, not all of it, but enough to relocate the trees that might have to be moved within the next year; that Palm and Walnut wa> a bad corner and the trees were in the street more or less and they would probably have to be moved. Councilman McCaron stated as far as trees were concerned that the Council should be aware of them and when the problem arse he did not think any one section would be so great that they could not be provided for at the time of development; that it should be kept in mind that there were some that could be saved; that the determina- tion as to whether they should be saved or not should.be made, at the time they were to be affected. Councilwoman Gregory stated if it was not budgeted for this would have a bearing on whether they were saved or not; that a survey should be taken and preparation made for saving them. Mayor Crites stated he believed this could be planned for TO BE PLANNED FOR and worked out and have something presented. There were WORKED OUT AND no objections.

N-23 public nuisance at 13009 and 13017 Fairgrove Street. 13009 AND 13017 Fairgrove Street City Attorney Flandrick stated that proper postings and POSTINGS, MAILINGS mailings had been accomplished. City Attorney Flandrick passed to the Council two sets of pictures, the first showing four 4) pictures of the property located at 13017 Fairgrove Street marked Exhibit All and the second set marked Exhibit 8" showing the property at 13009 Fairgrove Street. He stated that the Council had a staff report rom the Special Enforcement Officer who had exan~i;!ed the property this date and the property was still it the ndition shown in the pictures; that the staff recommendation was that N-23 be abated as a public nuisance. TESTIMONY IN OPPOSITION TO THE NUISANCE ABATEMENT WAS TESTIMONY IN CALLED FOR BY MAYOR CRITES. OPPOSITION Mr. Curtis Craig, 731 West Ist, Long Beach, ow.ier of 13009 CURTIS CRAIG, and 13017 Fairgrove Street, stated he would like to clean 731 W. 1st, the place up; that the buildings were in bad shape; that Long Beach he would like tp put the property up for sale for thirty 30) days and if he did not sell it at the end of that time he would go ahead and repair. Councilman McCaron stated the abatement could be ordered within sixty 60) days giving the property owner time to sell the property or abate the nuisance. In answer to a question by Mayor Crites, Building Superintendent Kalbfleisch stated he had not checked the interior of the building; that there were shacks and rubbish on the property. Mr. Craig stated there was one building that needed boarded up; that the center building was repairable; that the other two buildings were in a dilapidated condition and not worth repairing; that he had already taken out a permit to put in a new electrical system and had contacted the Building Department last year; that he was pressed for funds and probably would have to sell the property whether he repaired it or not. Councilman Morehead stated, in his opinion 13009 Fairgrove Street should be demolished; that he did not see how 13017 could be brought up to Code economically; that the trash and debris on the property was terrible. In answer to questions by Councilwoman Gregory, Mr. Craig stated he had electrical equipment stored at 13009 Fair- grove Street; that he could demolish the two buildings not the center building) and clean up the property during the thirty 30) day period. Councilman Morehead stated the storing of electrical equipment was in violation of the Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Craig stated it was really an amateur radio station.
