Chief of Police Adams stated that In a two months period, April and May, the police department had had 79 calls for services at this location; that so far in the month of June they had made 24 arrests; that the arrests ranged from adults for intoxication, minors for intoxication, loitering and disturbing the peace; that the majority of the cases were concerned with persons under 21 years of age; that he had recommended to the City Attorney that the City's ordinance be changed to restrict the age of persons allowed In pool halls to 21; that under a previous Chief of Police it had been recommended that persons be allowed in pool halls down to the age of 16, provided they had parental consent; that this had been the first time a problem had developed; that he felt certain the Chief Administrative Officer and he could work out the problem of having personnel assigned to the area, which would perhaps eliminate the problem; that he had obtained a couple of ordinances that might be of value from the Deputy District Attorney at Citrus Municipal Court, concerning State Penal Statutes, which would give the police department the authority to operate on the parking areas and the open areas adjecent to the building; that he recommended that the Council adopt an ordinance re- scinding the age of 16 and restricting the age to 21 for entrance into billiard and pool halls. City Attorney Flandrick stated that he would certainly be in agreement with Chief Adams that the ordinance restricting the age to 21 would be a step in the right direction; that he had drafted an urgency ordinance for Council's consideration; that he would also recommend that if the Council adopted the ordinance and after a period of a week or ten days the problem was not sub- stantially reduced that the Council authorize the authority to file a civil action to abate the business as a public nuisance.

Chief Administrative Officer Nordby stated that he agreed with City Attorney Flandrick; that the Ordinance adopted this evening would merely change the age of those persons permitted on the property and this would not really solve the problem.

He stated a meeting had been held with the City Manager and the City Attorney of Irwindale and with the Outdoor Advertising people. Planning Director Chivetta placed a map on the mall stating that the areas where the S" Overlay Zone would apply in Irwindale were along Arrow Highway from Peck Road to Maine Avenue, along Live Oak from Arrow Highway to Rivergrade Road, along Rivergrade Road from Live Oak to Ramona Boulevard, along Ramona Boulevard from Rivergrade Road to Baldwin Park's westerly city boundaries, along Lower Azusa Road Los Angeles Street) between Rivergrade Road and Baldwin Parkfs westerly city boundaries. They arrived at two alternatives to solve the problem: 1) In the areas designated n a radius at Maine Avenue and Arrow Highway, at Live Oak and Rivergrade Road, at Ramona and Rivergrade Road within a 1200 ft. radius, that no signs be permitted in this area; that the existing signs be allowed to be maintained with a phase out period; 2) Delete along Lower Azusa Road the S" Overlay Zone and to delete the S" Overlay Zone along Ramona Boulevard. The sign companies have stated they Would be in agreement with the City with alternative I) If the City would amend their recommendation fox- alternative 2) that along Ramona Boulevard the present existing signs would be maintained for a period of x number of years in accordance with Irwindale's Zoning Ordinance. They would not add any more signs along Ramona Boulevard; that there was a possibility that those signs that were structurally unsafe would be removed, which would cut the signage in half, There are thirteen 13) existing signs along Ramona Boulevard and there is a possibility that six 6) will be removed. This appeared to be an equitable solution to the problem for recom- mendation to the Irwindale City Council. Councilman Morehead inquired if the 1200 ft, radius at Rivergrade Road would have any bearing when Route 243 was constructed, Planning Director Chivetta stated that the signs would be re- moved from Rivergrade Road when the freeway was constructed; that there could be no signs on a federally assisted freeway. Planning Director Chivetta stated that they had studied aerial photographs of Ramona Boulevard in Irwindale. They had found that there was approximately a 700% increase in signage along Ramona Boulevard in Irwindale since 1956. Mayor McCaron stated that he felt the City should approach the railroad to see if some cooperation could be obtained from them; that there should also be some cooperation from Irwindale In this particular area; that this would be like placing many signs along Baldwin Park Boulevard entering Baldwin Park; that considerable funds were being expended to develop Ramona Boulevard and also Los Angeles Street, Councilman Morehead inquired as to the possibility of the other structures on Ramona Boulevard being removed. Planning Director Chivetta stated that the existing structures on Ramona Boulevard would be changed to steel, and a few could not be rehabilitated. That the sign company did not wish to Continued) 1968 06 19 CC MIN ×P$—˜ö C~G'~859 Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council June 19, 1968 Page 21 rehabilitate them. As Irwindale's Code presently exists they should be deleted within a period of years, unless the Council sees fit to extend the time limitation or the sign company applied for a variance to continue the signage along Ramona Boulevard. He explained that it was conceivable that there were two approaches: 1) to re- commend to the City of Irwindale that they delete the S" Overlay Zone and that the variance be granted to the sign company to maintain their signs for a period of say two or three years, or until such time as Baldwin Park completed the revamping of Ramona Boulevard and the Rivergrade Freeway was completed; that at that time they would be removed; that the City Council in Irwindale had continued the public hearing pending a recommendation from the City Council of Baldwin Park. It was the consensus of Council opinion that the request to Irwindale's City Council would be to delete the S" Overlay Zone along Ramona Boulevard and Lower Azusa Road and that Irwindale approve a variance for the maintenance of the signs until the City of Baldwin Park completed the revamping of Ramona Boulevard and the construction of the Rivergrade Freeway was completed. City Attorney Flandrick suggested that Councils request to the City of Irwindale should be formalized by a letter from Chief Administrative Officer Nordby to Irwindale's City Manager.
