Each case involves curbs, gutters, and drive approaches. Proper postings and mailings had been accomplished. There were no written protests. Testimony was given by: Mr. R. E. See, 3304 Mangum Street, regarding 73-S-21. He stated that about four years ago a curb was installed in front of his house for $150.00, and this time the cost is $600.00. He asked if these bids were advertised and the cost of curb and drive approach per foot. Director of Public Works Perry answered that once a year seated bids are received, and the contract is awarded to the lowest bidder for a one-year period. The cost is $3,00 per foot for curb installation and $ 90 per foot for drive approach. Regarding 73-S-25, Mr. Frank D. Muccia, 14861 Channing Street, stated that when he received his first notice, he went to City Hall where a tady told him he could have it done, subject to inspection, or the City could have it done. She gave him a list of sixteen contractors which he contacted. Most were out of business, did not do cement work, and the others told him the City had already contracted the job, so they wouldn't bid on it. He was also told that one-half of the cost would be due at completion and the other half in six months. His notice says that he must pay up by August 15th. Baldwin Park 1s the only City which adds on an administrative fee of $50.00 if the bill is not paid within five days after the hearing. The County doesn't charge anything for a lien. He explained that he was referring to 13615 and 13619 E. Garvey Ave. He owns one property and another gentleman owns the other one and rents the building out to him for a beer tavern. The other owner asked for a driveway on both sides so the customers could park. The City put a driveway on only one side and took out the driveway for the delivery trucks. On his property the driveway does not face the garage; it faces the house. He asked for ten-foot driveways, but ended up with a twenty-foot driveway. He stated he was not arguing about the price. But they put the wrong driveway in the wrong place. He's lost about 20% of his business because there's no place to park. Mayor King stated that with concurrence of Council, the public hearing on 73-S-25 could be held over so that Mr. Perry can check his records and report back at the next meeting. Director of Public Works Perry asked Mr. Muccia to ca11 him within the next day or so» and they could examine the property together. Councilman McCaron asked Mr. Muccia if he had made a complaint to anyone that this was done wrong at the time of the installation. Mr. Muccia answered that he hadn't, but the man who owns the other property is really angry because he was in the hospital at the time. The other gentleman called in, and his brother went to a City Halt office to ask the City to please not block the driveway.

COUNCILMAN GREGORY SECONDED. There were no objections. The motion carried and was so ordered. 00- Mr. Ralph Middleton, 13122 East Corak Street, stated that he heard that we are contemplating the institution of a CRA program in the City of Baldwin Park and that two 2) meetings had been held. He asked if the City Council planned to conduct a public forum for the people of Baldwin Park. Mayor King stated that he didn't know where the grape- vine Mr. Middleton was referring to started, as he had heard nothing to that effect and that Mr. Middleton should know this Council we11 enough by now to know that this would be presented to the people. Councilman Btewett added that it is a matter of law, as CRA would be an ordinance, and any ordinance is subject to a hearing. He stated that he hasn't heard anything about what Mr. Middleton is talking about. Mr. Middleton stated that he hoped that CRA would be handled in the same manner as the Charter, should the matter arise. Councilman Me Caron stated that possibly this inquiry stems from the General Plan. The statement was made that several areas would require redevelopment, and about the only way the area could be redeveloped as one unit is probably through CRA, due to the number of ownerships. This wasntt necessarily recommended; it was recommended, however, that that probably was the way it would have to be done if it's to be done at all. This may have been misinterpreted. Mr. Middleton commented that this may have been so, but that he was confronted personalty at his home by a property owner who holds quite a bit of property, who presented his views on why CRA is so good. Mr. Pete Parenteau, Manager of the Chamber of Commerce, 14327 East Ramona Boulevard, stated that in tine with their contract with the City, one of their functions is to spur commercial and industrial development. Their Commercial and Industrial Development Committee has met twice, and they reviewed the CRA Report which was presented by Development Research Associates and reviewed by Council previously. CRA was discussed at these meetings. These are probably the meetings to which Mr. Middleton is referring. A private individual is circulating a petition. The promotion of CRA was just one of the many things discussed at the meetings. 00- Mr. T. E. Carpenter, 4246 Jerry Avenue, stated that he went through the public nuisance files, and on 73-N-23, 13834 Olive Street and finally found a form entitled Permission for Structure Entry". He hopes to see this every time a piece of property is entered—the permission of the owner, trustee, or whoever has custody.

On June 20th, Council ratified an agreement which would prov'de for a stiding-scale contribution by the School District which was prompted by the passing of SB90. s bill took away from the School District the privilege of having a community services tax. That privilege has been reinstated, and the School District now wishes to re-institute the old agreement which provides for a contribution of $13,500.00 from the School District and $16,625.00 from the City. He recommended that the Council authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk execute the agreement.

RECREATION AGREEMEV APPROVED AMERICAN LEGION REQUEST TO PLACE VETERAN'S MEMORIAL IN MORGAN PARK 00- City Manager Mocatis stated that at the August 1st meeting a request from the Abraham Lincoln Post 241 of the American Legion to place a memorial in Morgan Park dedicated to the citizens of Baldwin Park was presented. At that time two questions were raised: 1) the safety; and 2) the maintenance costs. There is a proposed maintenance agreement between Post 241 and the City. Upon approval by the City Attorney of the form of the agreement, it is recommended that the City Council authorize execution of the agreement. Council reviewed a rendering of the proposed memorial. Mr. Emmitt Waldo, 4170 Sharons way, stated that there is an urgency of time as it must be completed by the time of the Los Angeles County Fair. The memorial will be twelve feet high, it is just about completed, and we have to start construction of the display at the fair. Mr. Lucas is working closely with the architect and the builder. MR.

VETERAN'S MEMORIAL & MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT APPROVED 00- City Manager Mocalis presented a request for a leave of absence without pay for Sandra Reinhardt, an employee of the Data Processing Division, for a period of twenty- eight calendar days, from August 7 through September 4, 1973. This request was inadvertently overlooked during the August 1st Council meeting and has been administratively granted. He requested that the Council ratify this request for a leave of absence.

The fund will be adjusted accordingly. At the present time it will be at City expense, but in the long run it will be at Chamber's expense. Councilman Blewett asked how long it would take to have the audit done. Finance Director Duncan stated that she was directed by the City Manager to contact our audit firm. They will be able to do the audit only during the month of October. They did not mention the amount of time it would take to complete it. Mayor King stated that the audit should be conducted as soon as possible. The committee will report back to the Council in two weeks, or no later than thirty days from now. COUNCILMAN GREGORY MOVED THAT LAST YEAR'S CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AGREEMENT BE EXTENDED THROUGH AND INCLUDING THE FIRST-OF SEPTEMBER OR FOR THIRTY DAYS, WITHIN WHICH TIME THE INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE WILL REPORT BACK TO THE COUNCIL, AND THAT THE CITY MANAGER BE AUTHORIZED TO EMPLOY A RELIABLE, INDEPENDENT AUDITOR TO REVIEW THE BOOKS OF THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE FOR THE LAST FISCAL YEAR WITH PUBLIC FUNDS. COUNCILMAN BLEWETT SECONDED. There were no objections. The motion carried and was so ordered. Councilman McCaron added that only those items which are of prime importance should be set up in the con- tract. What is expected should be generalized. If there are complaints about the Chamber, they should be made during the year and not at Budget time so that funds are held up. City Attorney Flandrick stated that there should be a separate motion to cover the amendment to the Bud- get in accordance with the Council's last motion. Mrs. Duncan added that she would need a resolution authorizing her to draw the checks for the Chamber of Commerce for the months of July and August if she is to draw up the warrants prior to September 5th.

A letter has been received from the Division of High- ways concerning one of the alleys, and he would tike to present a report on that at the next Council meet- ing. 00- City Manager Mocalis stated that the next item on the agenda is a resolution which will determine the amount of money to be raised by taxation. The report given to Council indicates that with the assessed valuation we received we will have a modest surplus of $5,612. That is with the understanding that the Council pre- viously authorized an amount of $18,316 from the un- appropriated surplus for the hard-match" grant for the E.V.I.S. Program which will be reimbursed to the unappropriated surplus through salary savings in the Police Department. The amount of money which we have to raise by taxation is $767,524 in the General Fund and the Recreation and Parks Department and $157,733 for the Municipal Lighting District. He stated that this amount of money would be raised by having identical tax rates as last year $.85 for the General Fund, $.33 for Recreation and Parks, and $.25 for the Municipal Lighting District. He read by title: RESOLUTION NO. 73-134, FIXING THE AMOUNT OF MONEY NECESSARY TO BE RAISED BY TAXATION FOR THE FISCAL YEAR COMMENCING JULY 1, 1973 Councilman Blewett stated that he would really tike to have an opportunity to go over these facts as he didn't get the report until this evening. He would tike to see if there is possibly a way that we can slash a penny or two off our General Fund tax this year. He would like to consider that possibility of a tax decrease. Councilman McCaron stated that we only show $5,612 to play with, and we're still not through settling our Budget. With what we have facing us, we should let that amount remain stable until we're through with our projects. According to one of the bills which went through the state legislature, if you reduce a tax then you have to go back to the people before you can raise it again. City Attorney Flandrick stated that Councilman McCaron was referring to Senate Bill 90, which in effect freezes your tax limit at the rates which you levied in 1972-73, with one exception which deals with toss of population and a decrease in assessed values, etc. Councilman McCaron asked what we're giving the people if we reduce the tax by $.01 or $.02. The people can depend on the fact that we're trying to hold it sta- ble and not ask for any more money. We're trying to raise funds to build a new City Halt, and that should g;- on a pay-as-you-go basis. We might be able to ac- complish that. continued) August 15, 1973 Page 12 ALLEY CONSTRUCTION CONTINUED TO 9/5/73 DETERMINING AMOUNT OF MONEY TO BE RAISED BY TAXATION RES.

He also thinks that there is possibly more money in this Budget. As Mr. Mocalis mentioned, the $18,316 is coming b^ck from E.V.I.S. We have an obligation to take a little bit longer look at it. He asked the rest of the Council to consider that idea. City Manager Mocalis stated that when we went through our earlier Budget sessions, we were dealing with an estimated assessed valuation for the City of Baldwin Park. Mrs. Duncan made a very, very dose estimate of what the actual amount would be. In the General Fund her projection was $552,971, and with our present tax rate it turned out to be $552,877, which was only a $94 difference. We made an underestimation of $2,000 on Recreation and Parks, and an overestimation on Muni- cipal Lighting of $582. All in alt, we made a very close estimate on these. We did go through many hear- ings and a lot of work. Of course, it's always possi- ble to cut a Budget. At the present time, with the Budget the Council had previously adopted, we have a surplus of $5,612, which amounts to a little over $.075 on the tax rate. He doesn't know of any other funds coming into the City. Councilman Blewett asked if Mr. Mocalis had just men- tioned that we have $18,316 coming back from E.V.I.S. on a grant. Mr. Mocalis explained that we had approval of $18,316 to be taken out of the unappropriated surplus to hard- match" over $30.000 from the State of California and close to $350,000 from the federal government. We wi11 be reimbursed for the $18,316. The motion of the City Council on that particular item was that $18,316 in hard-match' funds for the Law Enforcement Grant of the California Council on Criminal Justice be taken out of the unappropriated surplus and repaid." That money wi11 go back to that fund. We do have money in unap- propriated surplus. Councilman Blewett asked if it has not been the past history of this City on almost every Budget to have a somewhat sizable surplus at the end of each Budget year. City Manager Mocalis stated that it has been our pro- cedure that when we estimate revenues we use a very conservative approach. Then, when the fiscal year is unfolding, we try to keep as tight a rein as we can on expenditures. With one exception in the last sev" eral years, we have ended up in the black. We have under-spent what was authorized. Discussion followed that the tax item be discussed at an adjourned meeting before September 1st. Mayor King nsked Mrs. Duncan to take a dose look at the funds available. continued) BIB] 37658-U01 1973-U02 08-U02 15-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9591-U03 FO9836-U03 DO9910-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 2/5/2003-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1973 08 15 CC MIN(ÌìÕ‰peC0^015 equlcir Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council August 15, W^ Poqe 14 Mrs. Duncan stated that she would make any studies which the City Manager feels are necessary and have the information at Council's convenience. Council discussed the date and time for the adjourned regular meeting and agreed upon 7:30 P.M., Wednesday, August 22nd. 00- City Manager Mocalis stated that Recreation and Parks Commissioner Robert Dahlstedt has asked to be relieved from his Commission duties several months early due to the fact that he will be attending college beginning in September. The Commission recommends that Miss Sheri Brashear, as the representative of the Baldwin Park High School, be appointed in September to replace Mr. Robert Dahlstedt. The appointment will terminate on June 30, 1974. In answer to Councilman Btewett, Mr. Mocalis stated that Miss Brashear was chosen as was called for in our ordinance. The student body was polled. There was a certification of her grades, and the principal certi- fied that she has been chosen through the proper pro- cedure. COUNCILMAN BLEWETT MOVED THAT MISS SHERI BRASHEAR BE APPOINTED TO THE RECREATION AND PARKS COMMISSION AS OF SEPTEMBER 1. 1973. TERM TO EXPIRE JUNE 30, 1974. AND THAT MR. ROBERT DAHLSTEDT BE RELIEVED OF HIS COM- MISSION DUTIES AS OF SEPTEMBER 1, 1973 AND PRESENTED A CERTIFICATE OF APPRECIATION FOR HIS SERVICE TO THE CITY. COUNCILMAN GREGORY SECONDED. There were no objections. The motion carried and was so ordered. 00- City Manager Mocalis stated that he has been re- quested to bring a proposal before the City Council. A group of our citizens has been attempting to pur- chase a youth and senior citizens' center. The pro- posed location would be the Mormon Church across from Morgan Park. They have submitted a preliminary proposal which shows that their income for the first year would be a tittle in excess of $30.000. The proposal has a tremendous amount of merit to it. He recommended that Council direct the City Manager and the City Attorney to bring this back at the next meeting and indicate what action the City Council could take to assist this group of citizens in bring- ing this wish to fruition. There was no objection. Director of Public Works Perry stated that at the last meeting Crocker Bank requested that the three parking stalls on Maine Avenue adjacent to the bank be painted green, indicating twenty-minute parking. There were some questions raised by the Council with respect to congestion in the area.. He has talked to the bank manager and the Chief of Police and found that there 1s some congestion on Friday around lunch time and in the evening. The main problem with congestion 1s just too much utilization of the outside windows, and cars are lined up out into the street. Hopefully, this twenty-minute park- ing zone will eliminate part of that. Rather than cars parking in front of the bank all day, there will be more turnover, and, therefore, more cars will be able to park in this area. Also, the twenty- minute zone in front of the old bank building should be removed since it is no longer needed.

COUN- CILMAN HAMILTON SECONDED. There were no objections. The motion carried and was so ordered. 00- Director of Public Works Perry stated that the Traf- fic Committee has received a request from the Police Department to establish speed limits in the City-owned parking lots on the North side of Ramona Boulevard between Baldwin Park Boulevard and Downing Avenue, and on the South side between Baldwin Park Boulevard and Bogart. At the present time the speed limit could be Interpreted to be thirty-five miles per hour, which is the same speed limit as on the street. To restrict vehicles from traveling or attempting to travel at that speed, he recommended the speed limit be reduced to ten miles per hour according to the report, but after talking to the City Attorney the recommendation has been changed to fifteen miles per hour to comply with the Vehicle Code. Councilman McCaron asked why the ordinance doesn't cover all parking lots. Mr. Perry explained that the other City-owned park- ing lots are very definitely parking lots, while'the parking lots adjacent to Ramona Boulevard are some- where between parking lots and streets. Laws already regulate the speed in the regular parking lots. City Attorney Flandrick explained that it has already been designated as a street. City Attorney Flandrick also recommended a change in the ordinance from ten to fifteen miles per hour to comply with Vehicle Code and read by title: ORDINANCE NO. 667, ADDING SUBPARAGRAPH 6) TO SECTION 3381 OF THE BALDWIN PARK MUNICIPAL CODE, RELATING TO SPECIAL SPEED ZONES COUNCILMAN GREGORY MOVED THAT FURTHER READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 667 BE WAIVED.

Under this policy we would also aid the property owner in obtaining information regarding bank loans. Councilman McCaron stated that he didn't think there were enough cases to create such a burden on the Finance Department. Some of the other assessment district bonds will be dropping off leaving some space open. If we take items two, three, and five, it would give the property owner a choice. Councilman Hamilton and the Council commented that Councilman McCaron's idea was good. The property owners would have more time to raise the money. He recommended setting the cost hearing sixty days after the completion of work. Mr Perry suggested that the Council might want to hold off on making a decision until we know what effect it has on our unappropriated surplus. We'll be paying the contractor out of our money and then be reimbursed within the next five to seven years. Finance Director Duncan stated that the work load in the Finance Department is such that she will be able to handle it with the help of a computer. This is our last year on our second Sewer District. Our first Sewer District was finished last year, and we have very few delinquent. This October the last billing will go out on the second Sewer District. Financing has been a problem all the while, as in- dicated on the Treasurer's Report tonight. The Curb and Gutter Fund shows a deficit because we have been carrying it sometimes almost two years. This year we placed liens in the amount of approximately $45,000. We won't be receiving that money until November or December. We'11 get a portion of it in advance and a second advance in January. We have, in effect, been financing this and carrying it It will take some study, but she thinks that we will be able to do the same thing that we've been doing. She doesn't see a great problem. If it arises, we could certainly come back and do some short-term borrowing. She asked Mr. Perry if we have two more years on the Curb and Gutter Program. Mr. Perry answered that approximately a year to a year-and-a-half are left. Mrs. Duncan asked Mr. Perry if he could ball park the amount of money involved. Mr. Perry answered that approximately $150,000 to $200,000 is owed by people a year, and they're paying about 50% now, so we're talking about financ- ing $75,000 to $100,000 depending on the payment and how fast we get that back over a five, seven, or ten-year period. Mrs. Duncan stated tndt tne banks have indicated their interest in helping. BankAmericard dr,^ Master Charge cards can be used. This helps the prop^r.y owner because he can make payments, so we might even help our problem of puttinc. so many liens on r-r-operties. continued) BIB] 37658-U01 1973-U02 08-U02 15-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9591-U03 FO9836-U03 DO9910-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 2/5/2003-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1973 08 15 CC MIN(ÌìÕ‰pe0^0^018 Regular ti1^ of the Idwin Park City Council COUNCILMAN MC CARON MOVED THAT ALTERNATIVE NUMBERS TWO, THREE, AND IVE OF W DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS' REPORT ON 1911 ACT SHORT HRM ASSESSMENT DISTRICT FINANCING BE ADOPTED AND THAT SI)CTY DAYS BE SET FOR ALTERNATE Nl^ER WO.

Th'? motion carried d was so ordered. 00- Director of Public Works Perry stated that during the July 18th public hearing on 73-S-6, Mr. Coffey and his son, who live at 13435 Athol Street, protested the removal of his driveway approach 1n conjunction with the curb and gutter assessment district. The staff met with Mr. Coffey and his son at the site and discussed the problem. Mr. Coffey thought that he had taken out a permit in 1963 for construction of a driveway approach. He had actually taken out a build- ing permit to construct a garage. The street plan on which grades would be established was not done until 1970, about six years after the drive approach construction. The original drive approach did not meet the grade of the proposed flow line. If the City had been in error, we would have recommended that Mr. Coffey not have to pay for the drive approach. Mr. Coffey and his son are now satisfied with the City's conduct 1n this matter and the assessment is paid. 00- Director of Public Works Perry stated that the City owns some excess property at Sterling Way and Pacific Avenue. It was acquired in 1970 for the construction of street improvements on Sterling Way, Gas Tax Pro- ject No. 130. Not alt of the property was used. The excess property zoned C-2 is a buildable lot with an area of approximately 18,000 square feet. He requested a determination from the City Council as to whether their desire is to dispose of the property at this time. Disposition will require a title search, a complete appraisal, and competitive bid procedures. Mr. Mocalis stated that authorization by the Council Is required to expend funds for the title search and the appraisal and then to enter into competitive sealed bid procedures.

The property is ten feet wide, one hundred fifty feet long, and currently zoned R-1. He requested a dtenni nation from the City Council as to whether they desire to dispose of this property at this time. Based on the facts that the parcel is not a buitdable lot and that it is totally landlocked, the City Attorney recommends sealed bid procedures between the six abutting owners. Anyone buying the parcel would be required to sign a covenant and agreement to hold their parcel and this parcel continued) August 15, 1973 Page 17 ALTERNATIVES 2,?.

An adjacent property owner requested that this be brought before the Council as he Is Interested In purchasing the property. He checked with the Planning Department* and we have no use for the property and cannot foresee that 11 would be used for a future street. COUNCILMAN BLEWETT MOVED THAT SEALED BIDS FOR THE CITY-OWNED PROPERTY BEHIND 13718-28 OLIVE STREET BE ACCEPTED FROM THE SIX ABUTTING OWNERS AND THAT THE BUYER BE REQUIRED TO SIGN A COVENANT AND AGREE- MENT TO HOLD THEIR PARCEL AND THIS PARCEL UNDER ONE OWNERSHIP. Councilman McCaron asked how this property could be properly used by the six adjacent owners, COUNCILMAN BLEWETT WITHDREW HIS MOTION. City Attorney Flandrick stated that probably only three of the owners could make uae of the property. Councilman McCaron stated that It should be deter- mined that those would be the only three bids acceptable. Mr. Perry commented that the property would be avail- able to the six owners, even though three of them would have very little use for It. The gentleman who expressed an Interest 1n the property Is Just South of It, A discussion followed that the property could be used by the six abutting owners, however some of them may not be Interested. Mr, Perry stated that he would acquire that Informa- tion. One problem In this Is If they were Interested In only a portion of It, It would require a lot split to divide the property up. 00- Planninq Director Gordon presented a recommendation by the Planning Commission which was passed at their July 25th meeting that the City Council consider extending the funding for the Zoning Enforcement Officer position, This position was originally funded by the federal government under the PEP Program which will expire this December, City Manager Hocalls stated that this position Is already funded for the remainder of the year. The motion of the Council was to create this new posi- tion as a regular position. The person would be used by the Planning Department, the Finance Depart- ment, and the Police Department as a Special Enforce- ment Officer, a License Inspector, and a Parking Officer, respectively. This recommendation by the Planning Commission Is redundant because we have already budgeted for the position. He hoped that Mr, Gordon would transfer that Information back to the Planning Commission, continued) MOTION TO ACCEPT BIDS FOR CITY^OWNM PROPERTY BIHINB 13718-28 OLIVE T, MOTION WITHDRAWN REQUEST TO EXTEND FUNDING FOR ZONIN8 ENFORCEMENT OFFICER BIB] 37658-U01 1973-U02 08-U02 15-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9591-U03 FO9836-U03 DO9910-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 2/5/2003-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1973 08 15 CC MIN(ÌìÕ‰peW^O Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council August 15, 1973 Page 19 Councilman Blewett stated that it had been explained to him by one of the Commissioners that their desire was not to have this position spread around. They felt that there was enough Zoning Enforcement work to keep the person busy. City Manager Mocalis stated that he didn't see how that could be done inasmuch as we had a bonified need shown by the Finance Department for a License Inspector. We do lose a great deal of revenue, we believe, by not having a person available to check on people who do not have licenses to conduct busi- ness in the City. The Police Department has not had a Parking Enforcement Officer for somewhat in excess of a year-and-a-half. The Zoning Enforcement Officer is a new position. It's a very effective position, and we want to retain it. The breakdown was about 70% for the Planning Department, with the remainder of the 30% being split up between Finance and Police when they feel the need for the services. If the Council wishes to follow the Planning Comrhissiofi's recommendation, we would then have to have a Budget Amendment to exclude the use of this individual as a License Inspector and a Parking Enforcement Officer and to budget additional funds for those two pur- poses. Council felt that the matter should be dropped because that position is already funded. 00- CoUncilman McCaron stated that due to the fact that the railroad has already applied for abandonment, we should be thinking about the proposed development of property downtown on Ramona Boulevard. The excess portions are in front of properties which are already developed. Landscaping should also be considered. Councilman Gregory stated that she would tike to include in that the parcel near the County Road Department. Councilman McCaron asked if all the land in front of the Park Bowl is street right-of-way or if some of it is railroad right-of-way. Mr. Perry explained that the excess land there is street right-of-way. There is some railroad right- of-way which we can purchase when we finally reach an agreement. He will have a report on the property which is available and recommendations as to what is possible to do with the property. 00- / Mr. Frank D. Muccia, 14861 Channing Street, asked that something be done about the rental property owned by the School District near the school on Puente Avenue. At least three times a year they have a tire there. The property should be fenced.

The three substantial changes from the previous year's agreement were: 1) provision for an audit; 2) re- ordering of priorities of the work the Chamber does for the City; and 3) change in the contractual price from $16,000 to $24,000. Mayor King stated that if Council would concur, he would like to call for an audit of the Chamber of Commerce books and continue with the funds so that the Chamber might operate, showing good faith on the part of the City. He asked Councilmen Blewett and Hamilton and City Manager Mocalis to serve on a committee to look into this in depth and possibly at the next meeting give us a report. Councilman Gregory stated that the audit should take place as soon as possible so that the committee can come back with a full report on the total contract and list of priorities. She concurred to release retroactively the Chamber's allocation for July and August. City Attorney Flandrick stated that in effect what the Council wishes to do would require the consent of Mr. Waldo and Mr. Parenteau. You would be con- tinuing last year's agreement on the same terms and conditions unfit such time as the committee reports back. During that period of time this would be a fixed obligation of the City. As soon as the com- mittee reports back, further action would need to be taken. He suggested that the record reflect, if it's correct, that the Chamber agrees to that ar- rangement. He suggested having an agreement to con- tinue the 1972-73 agreement through either the first of September or whenever the committee's report is made available to the Council, at which time'action wi11 need to be taken on the new proposal. Councilman Gregory suggested that the proviso of an audit of last year's operation be added to the con- tract. City Attorney Flandrick stated that it should be in- dicated at whose expense the audit is to be conducted. Councilman Gregory stated that it will probably be paid for out of the Chamber's $16,000 allocation. City Attorney Flandrick stated that the City may re- duce the amount of the Chamber's forthcoming contract by amount of the audit cost, whatever it may be. Then the motion is to extend last year's contract with the Chamber of Commerce through and including the first of September or until such time as the committee reports back to the Council and to authorize the City Manager to employ an auditor to review the Chamber's financial transactions of the last fiscal year with PUDHC fL> IS. Mr. Parenteau stated that an audit is being conducted now by Mr. Ed Luebke. continued) August 15, 1973 Page 10 CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AGREEMENT REQUEST FOR C OF C AUDIT COMMITTEL FORMED MR.
