He stated the vehicles had been removed from the property. Councilman Blewett stated that the photographs indicated several market shopping carts on the property, and he suggested that the market be notified, in that these carts were fairly expensive. Mr. French indicated this would be done. TESTIMONY WAS GIVEN BY: Arthur Caylor, 4334 Hornbrook, stated he owned the property on Walnut Street. It had been rented to people who had been on County aid, and they had not taken care of the place; it took 7 months to evict them, and when they left in the middle of the night, Mr. Caylor stated he had worked all night cleaning up the place. He indicated they had cesspool trouble, and it had cost him over $500 to put in a sewer for the people who did not even pay their rent. After they had moved, he had re-rented the place to people who were going to repaint and carpet it, but when they saw the sign saying it could not be occupied, naturally, they moved out. Mr. Caylor stated he was financially unable to have the structures removed at this time, although he did intend to clean up the property. He stated it would cost too much to rehabilitate the structures, and he would appreciate some time to allow him to obtain the money to remove them.

AZC-51 RELATING TO MINIMUM SQUARE FOOTAGE REQUIRED FOR HOUSES IN THE R-1 ZONE. COUNCILMAN BLEWETT SECONDED. The motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: COUNCILMEN MC CARON, BLEWETT. HAMILTON AND MAYOR GREGORY Noes: COUNCILMAN KING It was the time and place fixed for a public hearing on AZC-51, amendment to the Zoning Code Section 9552.4 to modify the minimum square footage required for houses in the R-1 Zone. Initiated by the Planning Commission. Proper publication had been accomplished. Planning Director Gordon stated that the Planning Commission had recommended that a definition of bedroom" be added to the Zoning Code; this would prevent builders from calling a bedroom a den in order to build a smaller house. The staff is concerned that under the new defini- tion the minimum house sizes would be excessive, and that when the definition becomes effective, new home construction will almost cease entirely. He stated that the construction of new homes in older areas improves the neighborhood; however, if the new sizes are excessive, the City's efforts to upgrade would be damaged, as new home construction would be too costly. Mr. Gordon stated that the staff recommended the following minimums: 3-bedroom 1150 square feet; 4-bedroom 1300 square feet. He stated these are higher than the minimums for the County, FHA, and many surrounding cities. He further stated that on September 15, 1971. the City Council had adopted Ordinance No. 610, an Urgency Ordinance, adopting the new definition and minimum sizes of 1150 square feet for 3 bedrooms and 1300 square feet for 4 bedrooms. On September 22, 1971. the Planning Commission voted to keep the 3-bedroom size at 1300 square feet and the 4-bedroom size at 1450 square feet.. mainly because they felt 1150 and 1300 minimums were too small, and would permit cracker boxes" to be built; and further, they did not feel that higher standards would stop construction. Discussion followed regarding the comparison of Baldwin Park's requirements with those of other cities in the area. Councilman King felt that 1150 square feet was substandard. and stated he proposed 1225, or 1200 as a minimum. Councilman Hamilton disagreed that 1150 square feet was substandard. He noted that this was more than was required in El Monte, West Covina, Azusa. etc., and those cities had feirly successful building programs. He stated that we did not, however, want to do anything that would hinder construction, because we need it, but we also do not want anything substandard. Councilman Hamilton asked whether a variance could be granted in the case of an undersized lot, if the 1150 square foot minimum were to be adopted. City Attorney Flandrick stated a variance could be granted, if the facts required by the Code were shown to exist. Continued) October 6. 1971 Page 5 APPEAL P. C. DECISION RE AZC-51 MIN. SQ.

He felt that any lot in the City could meet the requirements of 1000 sq. ft. for a 2-bedroom, 1150 sq. ft. for a 3-bedroom and 1300 sq. ft. for a 4-bedroom. He stated that, in his opinion, everything that was being built in the City was good, and was upgrading the community; he stated it was important to the City that we keep the development going in order to develop the rear halves of the lots. Councilman King asked Mr. Gordon whether the other cities had been checked to see what size homes they were actually building. Mr. Gordon stated he thought El Monte and West Covina, in the ftatlands area, were building 3-bedroom homes around 1100 to 1200 square feet, and 4-bedroom homes at about 1300 square feet. He referred specifically to Woodside Village, where 3-bedroom homes are 1200 square feet and sell for $25,000; these homes have some unusual features, and are on 4500 square foot lots and have zero lot lines; these are known as Courtyard Homes. Their Patio Homes have 3 bedrooms and 1400 square feet; they sell for $28,000 on 5000 square foot lots. Their 4-bedroom homes go up to 1700 square feet and sell for $32,000. Discussion followed regarding comparison of selling prices in Baldwin Park and surrounding areas. Councilman Blewett mentioned that one of the builders had told him that 70% of the houses that he sells are to Baldwin Park residents who are upgrading their current housing. Councilman Blewett felt it was important that we give people in the community the opportunity to upgrade their housing. He stated it was the law of supply and demand—if people want 1300 or 1400 square foot houses built for them, they will be built. He stated that we want to upgrade our residential areas, but we do not want to retard their progress. As there was no one in the audience desiring to speak either in behalf of or in opposition to AZC-51, Mayor Gregory declared the public hearing dosed. City Attorney Flandrick clarified the Council's present position, stating that Urgency Ordinance No. 610 was presently in effect, with approximately 60 days before expiration; this Ordinance has the effect of accepting the Planning Commission's definition of bedroom", which is also the subject of an ordinance for second reading tonight, and by this Urgency Ordinance the Council had already decreased the minimum floor areas for 3 bedrooms from 1300 to 1150 square feet and for 4 bedrooms from 1450 to 1300 square feet. Mr. Flandrick recommended that if there were to be changes made in the square footage minlmums they be incorporated into the ordinance defining bedroom" so that both would become effective at the same time. COUNCILMAN MC CARON MOVED THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY BE INSTRUCTED TO PREPARE AN ORDINANCE ENCOMPASSING THE DEFINITION OF A BEDROOM" AND DESIGNATING THE MINIMUM SQUARE FOOTAGE REQUIREMENTS FOR HOUSES IN THE R-1 ZONE AS 3 BEDROOMS. 1150 SQUARE FEET AND 4 BEDROOMS, 1300 SQUARE FEET.

Proper publication and mailings had been accomplished. There were no written protests. Acting City Manager Balkus stated that two applications had been received, one from Hughes Aircraft Company, of Los Angeles, and one from Nationwide Cablevision, Inc., of Los Angeles. She stated that a committee was appointed by the City Council, consisting of Councilmen King, Blewett and the Acting City Manager to consider the appli- cations and make a recommendation to the Council. Councilman Blewett stated that, after careful consideration of both applications submitted, it was the recommendation of the Committee that the franchise be awarded to Theta Cable of California, a subsidiary of Teleprompter and Hughes Aircraft Company; this recommendation also was based on the good performance record they have had in the past. Councilman King stated the recommendation was unanimous by the Committee members, in that they felt that Theta had the resources to offer more to the City, and their manpower and supply were here. Councilman Blewett commented briefly on the future possibilities of Cable T.V., and indicated it was strictly an optional thing for the citizens, but felt it would be an important progressive step for the City. TESTIMONY WAS GIVEN BY: James Q. Gibson, 13268 Francisquito, asked whether other companies had been considered. Acting City Manager Balkus stated several others had been invited to apply and the applications received had been carefully considered. James A. Garrow, 1011 N. Baldwin Park Boulevard, stated the Council was taking a big step; Cable T.V. was going to be big". In his opinion. Council should not award a permanent contract, because in a few years the City might be in a position to purchase their own facilities. He felt it should be given a lot of consideration, since it was such a big step. Councilman Blewett explained that the franchise was not an exclusive franchise, and that Ordinance No. 580, relating to franchises, indicates a ten-year limit on the franchise. City Attorney Flandrick clarified that the term of the franchise may not exceed ten years, but does not necessarily have to be for a term of ten years, e.g., it could be granted for five years, or seven years, etc. Councilman McCaron felt the term should be long enough to allow the company time to make a proper investment; it will Continued) PUBLIC HEARING CA0LE T.V.

He felt we should con- sider the request of Theta Cable for a minimum of fifteen years. He stated that this is a service that is strictly voluntary on the part of the people, and further commented that it is such a technical area that he did not feel the City would want to become involved in operating such a business, he felt it should remain in private hands. Councilman King stated that Theta had requested fifteen years, but felt that ten years would be enough to protect their investment. John Powell, Hughes Aircraft Company, Culver City, repre- senting their subsidiary, Theta Cable, stated they would prefer fifteen years, mainly because their equipment is amortized over a fifteen year period; however, if the Council so deems, the ten-year period would be acceptable. Mr. Powell pointed out that the Ordinance provided an option for the City to purchase the system at any time for fair value. Councilman Btewett stated Theta Cable had a good performance record, and if at the end of ten years they were doing a good job and performing up to their contract, he did not feel the City would cancel it; however, he felt it was to the City's advantage to keep the franchise at a moderate period of time and he was in favor of the ten-year period. City Attorney Flandrick stated that, for the record, it should be pointed out that each member of the Council had reviewed in detail the applications of both companies considered, and these applications are on file in the City Clerk's Office. Charles Griner, representing Nationwide Cablevision, 10801 National Boulevard, Los Angeles, reviewed proposed rules and regulations by the F.C.C. He stated that one of the rules that is being proposed is that they are limiting the number of franchises in certain locations that a company, under common ownership, can have. He stated that Cable T.V. is the last media that the general public has access to; consequently it would behoove a Council to took carefully into what is going to happen in the future in regard to what the F.C.C. will do with different operators, new rules regarding bringing in distant signals, and many others. He stated that the City Council should strive to bring in a company that is willing to cooperate with the local, unique circumstances, not one that is not directly connected with the area or has no particular interest in the area. He stated the franchises should be tailored to meet the indivi- dual needs of a community. Regarding performance, Mr. Griner stated that Nationwide had been one of the active seekers of franchises in California, and has a number of franchises operating presently in California; he stated that in almost every conmunity in the San Gabriel Valley, Nationwide is operating a cable television system. He stated Nationwide has been in the business a number of years and has developed and is still developing a number of systems; they have over 50,000 active subscribers at the present time. Nationwide has the personnel, the performance record and the money to do a good job, Continued) JOHN POWELL HUGHES AIRCRAFT CO, CULVER CITY REPRESENTING THETA CABLE APPLICATIONS ON FILE IN CITY CLERK'S OFFICE CHARLES GRINER REPRESENTING NATIONWIDE CABLEVISION BIB] 37659-U01 1971-U02 10-U02 06-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9591-U03 FO9838-U03 DO9948-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 2/6/2003-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1971 10 06 CC MIN(ÌìØ peFFOSI?? Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council October 6, 1971 Page 9 He stated that the Council and its Committee should not only talk to people and read information, but should visit facilities to observe them in actual operation. Mr. Griner agreed that ten years should be the limit for a franchise. He stated that although the franchise was considered non-exclusive, in effect it was exclusive, because one company's use of the power poles would preclude use by another company. He commented that Cable T.V. was performing a public service; it was not controlled by the State Public Utilities Commission. He stated that this was an important step for the City, and he urged the Council to look into the actual operations and not just applications. He stated that Nationwide offered the most outstanding, modern and sophisticated system on the market today. Regarding Mr. Griner's comments. City Attorney Flandrick stated it was correct that the Public Utilities Commission had not, at this point, entered into any active regulation with regard to Cable T.V. Mr, Flandrick stated that his office was on the F.C.C.'s mailing list, and in the 2^ years since they commenced their study on what regulations should apply to Cable T.V., to his knowledge, no comments or written directives or regulations had been received from the F.C.C. with reference to regula- tion of Cable T.V. insofar as the franchise operation is concerned; the latest communication from the F.C.C. indicated that the matter is still under study and apparently will remain so for some time. The City Attorney stated that Mr. Griner had made an accurate observation, in that when the use of Edison Company or tele- phone company facilities is proposed for a Cable T.V. system, whichever company presents the best proposal first would likely get the active franchise, in that those companies had indicated that, as a matter of policy, they would not enter into a pole authorization agreement in any area with more than one Cable T.V. organization. Mr. Powell, Theta Cable, stated he had read the F,C.C. rulings,' including the proposed rulings to be handed down in March 1972, and anything Mr. Griner said prohibiting Theta"s operation was purely speculative; he commented that rulings could affect Nationwide's ability to carry out the terms of a franchise just as well as they could Theta's ability. Mr. Powell stated it was his understanding that a person who submits a franchise document to the public utility concerned will be given permission to use the poles. Councilman McCaron asked about the possibility of two-way services, e.g., between the subscriber and the police station, etc- Mr. Powell stated that Hughes Aircraft had designed a system that had been tested and which worked on teleprompter systems, which will provide this service; however, they were not yet in production, and to the best of his knowledge there was no company in the country who was in quantity production yet to provide this type of subscriber service. He commented, however, that all new construction was being built with two-way capacity.

Mr. Flandrick stated that since it was an administrative matter, namely, a Conditional Use Permit, any evidence or comments on it should be the subject of a public hearing. Planning Director Gordon stated that the Planning Commission had wanted a gate put in one wall, which was agreed to by Mrs. Igna's attorney; he stated this is not the gate to which Mrs. Igna was referring, but another gate. When the water and power people went in to install a gate, which was part of the Conditional Use Permit agreement, Mrs. Igna ordered them off the property and they contacted Mr. Gordon. He stated he was in the process of trying to arrange a meeting with Mrs. Igna's attorney, her son, and the water and power representatives to negotiate an agree- ment. However, he reiterated that the gate that was the subject of Mrs. Igna's concern was not the gate with which the Planning Commission was concerned, which is the southerly gate. He stated there is another gate which the Planning Commission never requested and he never made a recommendation concerning this gate, and the Planning Department was concerned only with the southerly gate. Mayor Gregory stated that possibly Mrs. Igna's problem would be resolved as soon as Mr. Gordon could meet with her attorney and the water and power representatives, and suggested she await the out- come of the negotiations. 00- CHy Clerk Balkus read a letter signed by nine property owners on Landis Avenue indicating they did not feel the camper in the front yard at 4728 Landis Avenue Sydney Kelley property) constituted a public nuisance. The letter further indicated that there was no rear yard access on this parcel. Planning Director Gordon stated that the only thing allowed in the front yard, according to the Zoning Code. was the parking of vehicles, and only in the driveway area. The subject camper is not on J truck, so must be considered outdoor storage and, therefore, is a violation of the Zoning Code. Mr. Gordon stated he had contacted Mrs. Kelley and had discussed the matter with her at length. He informed her that one alternative would be to appeal to the City Council, which is the reason for the letter. Mr. Gordon presented a photograph of the camper to the Council. Mrs. Sydney Kelley, 4728 Landis, asked if she might view the photograph, after which she acknowledged that this was her residence and her camper.

Mayor Gregory commented on the good appearance of the yard, even though the camper was considered Outride storage. Councilman King stated that most of the Council was aware of the problem in this particular case, and he felt it unnecessary for Mrs. Ketley to be subjected to any further testimony, under the circumstances. Councilman Blewett also commented that the appearance of the house and the camper certainly could not be considered unsightly. He felt a further look should be taken at homes such as this where there is no rear yard access. Councilman King felt that the Council should consider individual cases; this particular case would be not only a hardship on the Kelleys because of personal circumstances, but also because there is no rear yard access. Councilman McCaron felt that if this were to be allowed, there should be a uniform method, and he suggested the matter be referred to the Planning Commission for study. He agreed that a problem had been created when these homes had been built, but he felt the usage should not be allowed where new construction was cpjicemed. He felt public hearings should be held and an attempt made to alleviate the burden of conditions as they now exist in this type of circumstance. City Attorney Flandrick commented that it had been the City's practice in the past th?t when there had been a zoning violation presented, where a proposed change, such as a Planning Commission study and hearing was directed by the Council, administrative enforcement had been delayed during the interim period.

Councilman Btewett stated he was of the opinion that there had been court decisions against requiring residency for city employees.

He stated there was a 30-day termination clause in the Agreement, so the program could be terminated in the future if Council so desired; however, a layoff problem could be realized as stated previously should the City terminate the program, or should it be terminated without the City's consent. Councilman McCaron stated this was brought up at one of the previous meetings, and it was felt that there would be no need for additional funds, in that the normal turnover would probably absorb these personnel, and it was on this bc^sis that he had agreed to the program. Acting City Manager Balkus stated that to implement the program, the funds were applied for before anyone was hired, and the funds were acquired a month in advance. She stated she felt the personnel would be absorbed within the organization. Discussion followed. Councilman Btewett hoped we would adhere as closely as possible to the intentions of the program in being able to employ people from our own City who had been unemployed for a time. Roll call on the motion. There were no objections. The motion carried and was so ordered. 00- Acting City Manager Balkus reviewed her report regarding the Personnel Board's meeting to consider a floating" holiday for employees as stipulated in the Memorandum of Agreement between the City Manager and the Employees Association. She stated that Council would have to set this matter for hearing, in order to include such a holiday in the Personnel Rules and Regulations. City Attorney Flandrick briefly reviewed previous action regarding this matter, stating that during the budget sessions. Council approved the concept of the floating" holiday and authorized it pursuant to Section 204 of the Personnel Rules; the floating" holiday was to be taken on the employee's birthday, where feasible, and was to be effective as of July 1, 1971. The purpose of the hearing would be to confirm Council's earlier action in order to formally include the holiday in the Personnel Rules. Discussion followed. Councilman McCaron asked whether this had been covered in the budget. It was pointed out that since the holiday would be taken on the employee's birthday, not everyone would be off at the same time, and therefore, there would be no additional cost to the City. DISCUSSION MOTION CARRIED FLOATING" HOLIDAY FOR EMPLOYEES Councilman King felt it should be an extra holiday for the employee, with the approval of the department head, and not be restricted to the employee's birthday, COUNCILMAN HAMILTON MOVED THAT THE MATTER OF A FLOATING" HOLIDAY FOR EMPLOYEES BE SET FOR PUBLIC HEARING ON OCTOBER 20, 1971.

Mrs. Balkus read a letter from Dakan indicating the services which would be rendered, at a fee of $500, which fee would be applied as a credit against future engineering costs should they be desired in the preparation of plans and specifications, etc. She stated that the matter had been discussed with our Engineering Department, who felt this was a specialized field and the fee was reasonable.

She stated the School District and the P.T.A. Committee had investigated various equipment and made selections, the total cost of which is $3,958.63, which is over the $1,000 maximum. However, since there is only one source where this heavy-duty equipment can be obtained. Parks Director Lucas had requested waiver of bid procedure and authoriza- tion for the purchase of the equipment. Mrs. Balkus stated this was the initial equipment installation. Discussion followed regarding the type of equipment requested Finance Director Duncan stated the equipment was similar to what had been purchased for Pleasant View, Etwin and Bursch Parks, although in the past it had been part of a package", and the City's participation had brought down the cost, so it did not require a waiver of bidding.

He inquired as to whether there had been any investigation into the complaints, or whether anything could be done to relieve the situation. Mayor Gregory stated she had been in contact with the complainants, and had discussed the matter with Capt. Hebert, and had also written a letter to the Alcoholic Beverage Control office, in the hope that these things combined might have the effect of alleviating the problem in this area. i Chief Adams stated that all ABC applications are sent to the Police Department for investigation; the detective who is working on this particular application has included the complaints in his report, and the Police Department is protesting the issuance of a license, based partially on the protests and partially on the Department's past experience with the location; the background of the new tentative owner also may be grounds for denial of a license. He stated they probably would not know for a period of 30-60 days whether the license would be denied. Councilman King asked if this license were revoked, could we hold out any other tenant from this particular area. Chief Adams stated each one had to be decided on the basis of the particular application at the time. Councilman Blewett suggested that the Engineering Depart- ment investigate the premises for possible violations, and stated there were possibly health violations also. 00- City Engineer French reviewed his report on the initiation of Short Form 1911 Act Case Nos. 71-S"68,'on the southwest side of Pacific Avenue between Vineland Avenue and Big Dalton Avenue, for curb and gutter; on the northeast side of Pacific Avenue between Stichman Avenue and Big Datton Avenue, for curb and gutter; 71-S-70, on the northeast side of Pacific Avenue between Vineland Avenue and Stichman Avenue, for curb and gutter; and 71-S-71, on the southeast side of Stichman Avenue between Pacific Avenue and Central Avenue, for curb and gutter.

Discussion followed. Mayor Gregory raised a question about loading and unloading passengers for the theater. City Engineer French felt this would continue, in that the cars were not actually parking. He stated it did present a problem, as did McMahan's trucks, because traffic was abruptly restricted to one lane. Councilman Blewett stated the theater would definitely have a problem, as would McMahan's, in that their warehouse is in the rear and they would have to toad and unload through the front of the store. He asked whether the side- walk could be narrowed; Mr. French stated it could, but there was a heavy pedestrian load on the sidewalk, particu- larly at the theater. Mr. French stated that McMahan's did violate the loading zone, in that the trucks parked there for lengthy periods at times. Chief Adams stated that if the area was a no parking zone, people could stop momentarily to pick up someone; he further stated that there was ample parking available right across the street. Councilman Blewett commented that, in the case of children crossing the street to the theater, for instance, there would be another type of hazard created, in that someone might be hit in the crosswalk. Chief Adams stated that there was also a dangerous situation caused because of vehicles parked there, so we were faced with a difficult problem. Discussion followed. Councilman Blewett felt McMahan's should be contacted before any action was taken by Council to see if a workable solution could be reached. Councilman King felt there would be no problem with the theater, since loading and unloading would be allowed; however, he felt the matter insofar as McMahan's is concerned should be investigated further.

He stated the project will include data collections, computer mapping, questionnaires, etc. Mr. Gordon stated he had requested a copy of the final report, and he would also like the students to make a presentation to the Planning Commission and the City Council, if time permits. He^ further stated that the City should benefit by obtain- ing useful data, maps and, perhaps, some new insights into our problems and how to solve them. Msyor Gregory commented that the City had never acquired a copy of the previous study. Mr. Gordon stated there had been a change in personnel, but the present professor at Cal Poty was trying to locate a copy for the City. Mayor Gregory stated this had been an excellent report, and she felt a copy would be valuable to the City, particularly the Planning Commission. 00- City Clerk Balkus read by title: October 6. 1971 Page 20 CAL POLY STUDENT GENERAL PLAN STUDY ORDINANCE NO. 609 AMENDING SECTION 9475 OF THE BALDWIN PARK MUNICIPAL CODE, RELATING TO FILING FEES WITH REGARD TO ZONING APPLICATIONS COUNCILMAN MC CARON MOVED THAT FURTHER READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 609 BE WAIVED.

Councilman McCaron felt McMahan's problem would be difficult to solve, but he felt they could make a loading zone on Ramona and possibly enter through the east end of the building City Engineer French stated that if Council did not wish to take action regarding the curb in front of the theater and McMahan's until a later date, he would tike authorization to restrict parking from the City Hall up to the theater in the interim. Discussion followed. There were no objections. Council men McCaron and Hamilton agreed to rescind their motion for the adoption of Resolution No. 71-239. COUNCILMAN MC CARON MOVED THAT THE TRAFFIC COMMITTEE RESOLUTION BE CONTINUED TO OCTOBER 20, 1971 FOR A SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT. COUNCILMAN HAMILTON SECONDED. There were no objections. The motion carried and was so ordered. 00- Councitman Hamilton stated he would like the Traffic Committee to consider a time limit for parking in the downtown area, after the Ramona Project is completed. He stated he had received complaints that people are parking in front of businesses and riding the bus, leaving their cars there all day. He stated the merchants need the parking area for their businesses, and he felt a 2-hour time limit, which would be enforced, would eliminate the problem. Mr. French and Chief Adams stated they would try to alleviate the problem. 00- City Engineer French reviewed his report regarding the proposed vacation of Monterey Avenue. He stated that the acquisition of the Walnut School site had necessitated the realignment of Monterey Avenue as it approaches the southerly boundary of the school site; to accomplish this alignment it is necessary to vacate a portion of Monterey Avenue, as shown on Map V-71-1 copy in official files). He stated the dedication had been taken some time ago as part of Lot Split No. 587, and improvements had never been constructed. He stated the development plan for the parcel would cul-de-sac the street at the terminus of Monterey Avenue as it presently exists.

He stated the equipment was presently available only on an experimental basis. Councilman Hamilton asked whether educational television was part of the Cable T.V. service. Mr. Powelt stated that it was, and indicated that they would make four educational channels available to the school district, and this service would go not only to the schools» but also to any subscriber's home. He further stated they would provide free installation and free service to the schools and municipal buildings, Mr. Griner stated that apparently Theta Cable had the opportunity of discussing their proposal with the Council, and he respectfully requested that Nationwide be given an opportunity to discuss their proposal with the members of the Council and the Committee. Councilman Blewett stated that there had been several hearings on Cable T.V., and to his knowledge, this was the first time a representative of Nationwide had been present. He felt it was a case of one company want- ing a franchise and working to sell" themselves, and another company wanting a franchise and merely sending in an application. City Clerk Balkus stated that proper notice of all the hearings had been given. James Q. Gibson stated that even though Nationwide had been somewhat remiss in appearing before the Council and in making their presentation, he felt it would behoove the City to look into every aspect of the situation, in that it is such an important decision; regardless of which company had the better sates procedure, he felt the City should seek the best possible agreement for Baldwin Park. He felt Nationwide should have the opportunity to present everything they have to offer. Councilman Blewett commented that Nationwide had presented a contract, and both contracts had been compared. Councilman King agreed with Mr. Gibson, in that the Theta facility had been visited, and he felt Nationwide should be given the same opportunity. Mayor Gregory stated the hearing on Cable T.V. applications would be continued to November 3, 1971 to allow Nationwide Cablevision to present their proposal to the Council and the Committee, and to arrange a visit to the Nationwide facility. There were no objections. 00- Mrs. Eugenia Igna, 12819 E. Garvey Avenue, stated she had done everything the City had told her must be done, and she had spent over $25,000. She stated she had put in a block wall, trees, sidewalks, blacktop, etc., and now Mr. Gordon had informed her she had to put in gates. She stated no other property had gates, and they would not stay locked anyway, and she felt it was not the City's concern, but was between her and the water and power company, and she stated they agreed with her.
