Mr. Nichols stated that his two lots have nothing to do with the other four; that there are no weeds in front of the house; that there Is a fence to keep the dogs and child- ren out; that he did not feel these lots should be included In this action, but that he wanted to know what the City wants him to do with the property.

Mayor McCaron stated that the problem In this case is made doubly difficult In that there are residences in the area; that whenever a transition is made from one use to another an intrusion is made upon the privacy of these people; that the City has to try to protect the present usage and the type of development to see that property improves rather than deteriorates. In reply to Mayor AcCaron's question as to whether Mrs. Shumaker had any objection to this action, Mr. McGee stated that she did not. Mr. McGee stated that he intended to block off Mrs. MR. MCGEE Shumaker's property, but that he didn't see why a wall was needed between his property and the other construc- tion areas. Planning Director Chivetta stated that there were no M-I uses abuting Mr. McGee's property; that M-I uses are adjacent to it but not abuting it. Mr. McGee stated that there is a construction company MR. MCGEE which has a whole lot and is right next to his fence. Mayor McCaron stated that under the present conditions we should refer this case back to the Planning Board; that It should be stated that there should be sufficient walls set up to protect the property to the south; that if it requires a wall clear to the back then this would be required; that the limit be set for two trucks and any more would be in violation; that trucks may not be stored in back and dismantled and abandoned; that these conditions be made a part of the Conditional Use Permit so that'the City does not have to go back to police the area. He told Mr. McGee that If these conditions are set up and are not satisfactory to him, then it would be his choice after that. In answer to Councilman Morehead's question, Mr. McGee stated that he intended to remove the tree, In the center of the easement, and put in blacktop.

He stated that this street was dedicated on a tract map some time ago when the area was under county jurisdiction, that the property owners in the area are requesting that the street be improved; that it is Impractical to expect to develop the City's standard sixty foot wide street with a minimum of forty feet of pavement because of size of lots and location of structures; that this petition is predicated upon a thirty foot wide street with twenty four feet of traveled way which will allow adequate width for the vehicles but will not allow for any on street parking. He requested that the City Council authorize the circulation of the petition. In answer to Mayor McCaron's question as to the length of the street, City Engineer French replied, it would be about 1,000 feet. He Informed him that approximately 40 parcels were being served by this street all zoned M; that the lots will be about 80 feet deep; that the area has gone through a transformation from single family homes to vacant property; that the single family homes are being removed and right now nothing is coming into the area; that the people who own the property would like decent access with the area cleaned up, and this would help them develop the property so that they could use it in accordance with their zoning.

WiOODRUFF through the mail from Mr. French, a quit claim deed to approximately 40 feet of property, and she would like an explanation. City Engineer French stated that this concerns the Ramona- Badillo Project; that the City is attempting to obtain title to Ramona Blvd.; that the property outlined in the quit claim deed Is within the street area; that our title reports indicate that there is a question of ownership on Ramona Boulevard. Mrs. Woodruff stated that she would like to make the re- MRS. WOODRUFF quest that the City Engineer or his department stake out the exact measurements as to the width and length of property that had been requested in the quit claim deed; that the point of origin on the center line of Ramona, that is the starting point of the City's 40 feet, be marked. She then asked whether the City wanted an addii tional 40 feet, that it was not specified in the letter. City Engineer French stated that the letter made the statement that the area is within Ramona Boulevard; that title to the property outlined in the quit claim deed is based upon a description by title insurance; that the City would be most happy to stake out the property for Mrs. Woodruff; that the only area the City wants is the area in the street. Mrs. Woodruff stated that she would then be more than MRS. WOODRUFF happy to comply with the request. 00- Councilman Morehead brought up the matter of fireworks COUNCILMAN permits; that last year three applications more than the MOREHEAD RE ordinance allowed were received; that there had been FIREWORKS PERMITS discussion that something should be done,before the next time for processing applications, in regard to contacting the organizations who had applied in the past so that some agreement could be reached to prevent problems for 1969. Mayor McCaron said he had received a favorable report from one of the organizations. Their returns had been more than they had expected. The thought had been to have all organizations that are interested in this matter form an organization of their own and among themselves decide who is to apply for permits. Chief Administrative Officer Nordby stated that there is an effort on the part of the fire chiefs in the state of California to completely outlaw the sale of fireworks. The fire chiefs' department of the League of California Cities introduced an ordinance to outlaw fireworks which was rejected somewhere along the line, so it just missed being considered by the general assembly. This information could be passed on to the people who are involved in the sale of fireworks. Mayor McCaron asked Councilman Morehead if he could contact the organizations and hold a meeting with them and let them take the burden off of the Council for designating who should and who should not be allowed to sell.
