Gerald Leonard, Sr. Deputy representing Supervisor
Baxter Ward, presented a rendering of a Transportation
Proposal for the Metropolitan Area. There has been a
deadlock between his proposal and the proposal of the
City of Los Angeles which was almost entirely subway,
and expensive.
The line in Baldwin Park would operate along the San
Bernard!no Freeway as an extension of the El Monte
Busway and continue to Pomona. Stations are planned
at the intersection of the San Bemardino and the San
Gabriel River Freeways and one at Sunset Avenue. The
location and style of the station is the prerogative of
the community. The budget would include provision for
the development of Park and Ride, with land being pro-
vided by the City. There would be an airport service,
operating across the entire system. There are several
right-of-way options: maximum use of freeways, no use
of freeways and a combination using freeways, flood
control channels, railroads and aerial structures over
streets. Freeways would be the least costly. The
decision as to where and how lies with CAL TRANS.
A decision on development of a starter line was
reached recently by the State Secretary of Transpor-
tation, County Supervisors and the Mayor of Los Angeles.
Federal transportation funds, matched with a diversion
of gas tax funds would be used.
Supervisor Ward has reoriented his proposed system to
tie together with the City's plan. If subway is used,
it is proposed that financing be through local taxes.
The proposed fare is 25^, with a possible free system.
The price of the system would be approximately $5 $7-1/2
Billion, raised by a 1( sales tax increase, using 1/2(
for construction and 1/2( for operation. This would
cost residents in the RTD District 10( per day.
Supervisor Ward win present his proposal to the County
Board and to SCRTD in January, with a proposal to place
this on the June ballot. If they do not place it on the
June ballot, signatures will be obtained to place the
issue on the ballot.
In January, Supervisor Ward will send a written report
on the proposed system to all cities.

William Canfield, 2939 Nebraska Avenue, Santa Monica
spoke regarding Theta Cable TV. He stated that in 1971
they were awarded a franchise to build in the city. Due
to a financial setback building was stopped and delay
was requested March 4, 1974. Company had spent $100,000
during 1972 and 1973 clearing poles and making ready for
installation of Cable System. Pole space has been
maintained by payment of $12,500 yearly to the telephone
company. Losses in 1974 were $6 million and half that
in 1975. In 1976 expect to be in the black again and
expect to resume construction again in mid-1977. They
will continue to hold pole space at their expense.
City Manager Mitchell explained this is a problem common
to a11 Cable TV. After Council discussion Mayor Hamilton
recommended that due to the circumstances any further
action on Theta Cable TV be held in abeyance until mid-
1977.
Gloria Zook, 4817 N. La Rica, resented a newspaper
article on CRA costs attributed to a dissenting group
and questioned what a lawsuit aqainst Mr. Mitchetl and
the City would cost.
Halite Slater, 4814 N. Stancroft, spoke against the CRA
cost article in the newspaper and she wondered if all
Council were in accord. She feels that the graffitt
paint out program has been a failure and that painting
costs should be the businessmens and youth could do the
work. The Council should consider some other means for
Animal Control than the County until they fulfill
their contract.
Tom Carpenter, 4346 Jerry, Chairman of the League to
Preserve Constitutional and Civil Rights, said he was
denied inspection of public records. He objects to
City Manager compiling data on his actions; reports were
sent to City Manager from departments about a month ago
he thought. Information was sent and published in the

Chamber of Comnerce, who had nothing to do with it.
Then the Chamber of Commerce sent out a letter which
could be quoted. Carl Sharpe requested costs on the
CRA lawsuit and on November 21 material, which he had,
was sent out and he asked to see basis of the material
and the City Manager said no", this was a preliminary
draft and should not have gone out as it pertains to
pending litigation. In his opinion this is political.
He objected to the Mayor stating 2 to 1 and 3 to 1 vote
for CRA. This was published and is a lie. 59% voted
for and 41% against. There'were 3.000 people and this
was 18% more. He had tried to correct this at the
Senate hearing.
Howard Parkinson, 2427 Walnut, spoke in favor of City
Council actions on CRA and feels Tom Carpenter is
detrimental to the City.
Tony Baca, 14740 E. dark Street, representing Parents
and Youth Center, thanked City Council for granting
funds to paint graffiti from waits and pledged their
cooperation. Volunteer workers will be painting the
walls without pay. In response to Halite Slater, he
said that the persons who have their walls painted
should not have to do the repainting themselves.

VOLUNTEER RESPONSE
Mayor Hamilton responded to Tom Carpenter's charges
by saying that the figures published on CRA costs
were conservative, saying Baldwin Park is losing
thousands of dollars in sales taxes while all City
Council was trying to do was to get the business in
town in order to create employment and to capture
some of the sales tax dollars that are going out
of town. He felt K-Mart was lost due to delay and
had been told this by the developer.
He says he has sometimes been misquoted in the paper
and does know that he corrected the percentage of
votes mentioned.
City Manager Mitchell replied that he stands on what
he reported. The comments do not warrant further comment
Councilman Waldo mentioned that property taxes had
been raised in order to keep street lights on and
wonders where the CRA cost of $700,000+ is going to
come from and what services are going to have to be
taken away from the citizens to make up this deficit.

Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council
City Manager Mitchell referred to his report on Costs on
CRA Lawsuit and recommended it be received and filed.
Councilman Gregory suggested that.until the lawsuit is
finished no further comments be made or discussion of
action to be taken unless approved by full Council or
Agency or at an executive session. Time costs to
prepare the report were not included in the report,
and decisions of this kind should be taken up with the
City Manager and City Attorney and action by total council.
Councilman.King agreed that Council should be prudent
when getting into legal areas, and all councilmen
should be aware of what is transpiring prior to
publication or statement. City Attorney Flandrick concurred
that the City Council should refrain from making any
comments pertaining to the merits or demerits of the
pending litigations. Mayor Hamilton said his statements
were his own and were for the benefit of the people
who had asked questions. He is for the progress of
the City which records will show. Councilman Waldo
said that as a Councilman and representative of the
people he wants to ask questions and maybe give an
opinion and that not everything should be brought to
the Council Chambers.

Mr. Mitchell recommended that the City supply paint
and supplies and that $1,000 be transferred from
unappropriated reserve to help with youth effort
to obliterate graffiti on waits. Councilman King concurred
with a trial program. Councilman Gregory asked whether
a ledger or report would be kept on costs and results.
Mr. Mitchell said records wilt be kept, including written
approval of the property owner and the location involved.
Some priority will be given to locations with graffiti
visible from the street. It will be the program of the
youth group with minimum supervision.

Mr. Mitchell said he had reported on Cable TV Franchise
and Mr. Canfield had also presented a report from
his company on the subject. Councilman Gregory felt
it was proper for Mr. Canfield to come and explain
their position as they have kept the Council Informed
in the past and she feels easier about it but would
like to see something happen soon. Mr. Mitchell said
theirs is a common problem with a11 Cable TV and does
not think there is much possibility of another company
taking over. Council agreed to wait until Mid 1977
for project to resume.

City Manager Mitchell gave a brief resume on the
proposal for a grant application for the East San
Gabriel Valley multi-jurisdictional project for
burglary prevention and investigation. Councilman
McCaron asked how much the cost would be and Mr.
Mitchell said that the cost per year, along with
matching funds, would not exceed $3,000. This will
be in next year's budget. Councilman Gregory was
concerned that there are going to be amendments
to the budget and warned that unless it involved
the budget for the following year, rather than this
one, cost should be carefully considered.

Councilman King asked City Manager Mitchell to elaborate
on Item No. 3, Responsibility for Relocation Assistance
in the Acquisition of a Suitable Community Center. Mr.
Mitchell said that the Federal law requires us to offer
relocation assistance despite the fact that the Community
Center Corporation and Morman Church have already reached
an agreement and settled on the price, so relocation
assistance is not anticipated. A token payment must be
offered to them, which they will accept, but if not
needed could be donated back to the Community Center
Corporation to rehabilitate the building. The minimum
figure is $2500. This has been discussed with the
Community Center Corporation and representatives of the
Morman Church. Councilman Gregory questioned Item No. 2
and what the cost would be to the City of maintaining
and operating the community center. City Manager
acknowledged the City would have responsibility but
hoped the cost would be offset by some rental income from
agencies that would make use of the facility. Otherwise,
the City or the Corporation would supply the money.
Councilman Waldo inquired whether the Boy's Club would
be paying rent. City Manager Mitchell said approach

had been made to other agencies related to grants to
the City and to other units of government such as Mid-
Valley Mental Health, who have said that when they can
get out of their lease would like to move into this
facility and help pay the rent. Councilman Gregory
feels that funding is iffy" and is concerned with
assuming more liability. She mentioned being saddled
with the auditorium now and said the building in the
Park was built and planned so that it could be added
on to, so that the same type of thing could be built
on to it without the cost involved in the Community
Center. Councilman King feels we need more facilities
for housing lawbreakers» more police protection and
is afraid to be saddled with more debts than those
needed to safeguard the community. His concern is
that it is going to cost more in in-kind services and
more funding and staff time taken away. Inquired
about whether another person would be needed and
about maintenance and costs. Mr. Mitchelt responded
that the CETA Program would provide sufficient
personnel to take care of the problem. There are
still many questions to be answered. Mayor Hamilton
did not want to fail to adopt the Resolution as
the Federal funding of $118,000 and the contributions
and pledges of over $24,000 the Corporation has raised
would be lost. He feels that If the City can buy and
pay for the property, the community wilt support the
project and the county or federal government will give
more when in operation. Councilman King said he had
no intention of scrapping the project but had another
pertinent question about whether City had a long-term
lease agreement and for how long. Mr. Mitchett said
there has been a rough draft which might be used and
the federal government would like to see something
longer than ten years, preferably twenty years.
Councilman McCaron could see no reason for a lease
time limit. City Attorney Flandrick said much depends
on what the Federal representatives of HUD are willing
to approve, and their conditions, and that they will
probably say they want the City to hold the fee title
and lease it to the Corporation or vice versa. Councilman
Gregory wanted to get as much legal advice from City
Attorney Flandrick as is possible on how much bind there
is and the legality of withdrawing if something drastic
happens. City Attorney Flandrick said the Resolution
is a declaration of intent but is not irrevocable and
the grant could be rejected.

Director of Public Works Lathrop gave a brief resume
on the petition to construct sidewalks on Patm Avenue
between Baldwin Park Boulevard and Maine Avenue. He
said the staff had reviewed the request and recommended
that the sidewalks not be constructed because there is
insufficient right-of-way to accommodate it. The other
alternative would be by going the conventional 1911 Act
route whereby the necessary right-of-way would be acquired
through condemnation and the sidewalks constructed,
creating heavy administrative costs and possibly a
majority protest.

Director of Public Works Lathrop gave a brief resume of
his report on Determination of Improvement Security
Amounts for Subdivisions, explaining that Section
66499'.3 of the Government Code of California authorizes
the Council to determine the percentages for establishing
bonds for parcel maps and subdivisions, with percentages
not less than 50% nor more than 100% for faithful
performance and labor and materials.
APPROVE POLICY OF REQUIRING 100% OF ESTIMATED
IMPROVEMENT COSTS FOR PERFORMANCE AND 50% OF THE
ESTIMATED IMPROVEMENT COSTS FOR LABOR AND MATERIALS
FOR FUTURE SUBDIVISIONS. M/S: GREGORY/KING.
In answer to questions by Councilman McCaron, City
Attorney Flandrick said this was a general requirement
and concurred with Mr. Lathrop's recomnendation.
because the faithful performance bond could be a
serious problem if the developer went broke or
disappeared, in which case the City would have to
go in at their own expense and finish public streets.
He concurred with the minimum coverage on the labor
and materials bond, saying percentages are relatively
standard.
The motion carried. There were no objections.

City Clerk Balkus explained that the Ordinance amended
Municipal Code Section 2256 regarding conditions of
employment. By an inadvertency when the new Code
was adopted, unclassified employees were included
in the new Code.
FURTHER READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 718 WAIVED: M/S/C:
GREGORY/KING.
Councilman Waldo felt that it should be possible for
any City employee to run for any City office. City
Attorney Flandrick explained that if an unclassified
employee would run or was elected to a City office
there is a commontaw conflict of interest" and they
would have to give up their first office and be a
member of City Council only. For the benefit of
the audience, Mr. Flandrick explained that, if
adopted, the Urgency Ordinance would have the effect
as described, and would also be proposed and be
introduced as a regular Ordinance at this meeting,
with Second Reading next meeting. Copies wilt be
made available.
Councilman Waldo suggested a Public Hearing.
City Attorney Flandrick did not recommend this,
as he said there would be a Public Hearing whenever
the Municipal Code was changed. However, he felt
it was a matter for public comment which could be
made during Oral Communication.
Mr. Flandrick explained that Section b. of the
Municipal Code, Section 2201, pertaining to civil
employees or classified, would remain in effect.
If an employee wishes to become an elective, he
would relinquish his position. With respect to
the unclassified employees, in Section c., if they
run for City Council or elective office, they would
be deemed to have a commonlaw conflict" not
withstanding this Section of the Code.
Further discussion followed that at time of Second Reading
the Ordinance could be further modified.

Regufar Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council
Director of Public Works Lathrop gave a brief resume
on a bill, H.R. 9801, which would give Congress the
right to review rules and regulations adopted by
federal agencies. It would prevent federal administrators
usurping the decision-making authority of local
ed officials, reduce bureaucratic red tape in
at programs and prohibit federal administrators from
ing their wishes such as the Transportation Improve-
ment Plan. Congressman Rousselot has told Mr. Mitchetl
that the requirement of a Transportation Improvement
Plan was not the intent of Congress, that it is being
reviewed and he is making every effort to get this
stricken from law that the Federal Highway Administration
should review such plans. There are laws written by the
agency that were never intended by Congress to be written.
City Attorney Ftandrick cited a specific example and
explained that a Federal Administrator is entitled to
issue regulations and after he satisfied himself and
his department, they are published and effective
30 days later.
ENDORSE ADOPTION OF H.R. 9801 AS URGED BY
METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING BOARD

COUNCIL ACTION BE FORWARDED TO LEGISLATORS.
M/S/C: GREGORY/WALDO. There were no objections.

Director of Public Works Lathrop gave a resume of his
report on Animal Control Services. He explained that
the options were to continue to contract with the County
for total services as presently received but at an
increase of approximately 66% or to reduce total services
to stay within the budget. Other alternatives are for
total or modified service except for license fee
collection to be provided by City, animal shelter and
special services only or contract with San Gabriel
Valley Humane Society or enter.into Joint Powers
Agreement. Councilman King suggested we could retain
County services on a short-term basis until alternatives
were considered. Mr. Lathrop said he had calculated
City could pay for total services through February 7,
1976. Councilman King recalled service had not been
satisfactory in contracting with the Humane Society.
He would like to took into having the city make the
collection and to took into the joint efforts of other
cities and maybe form a venture with them. Councilman
McCaron feels if it is necessary to raise the license
rates it should be done, but that the City can handle
it cheaper than the County and keep it convenient for
the^animal owner. Doesn't want any more facilities
in Baldwin Park. City Attorney Flandrick suggested
City Manager Mitchell be authorized to enter into 90
or 120-day agreement with the Humane Society white
trying to work out a Joint Powers or other agreement.
Councilman Gregory mentioned that West Covina and
other City Managers are taking up the Animal Control
problem and there may be some arrangement that can
be made with them. Mr. Mitchell objected to the hiqh
rates of the County and^pulcL rather enter into a short-
term agreement and talk.with other cities. He felt
Council might want to explore the possibility that
if another city joined them perhaps San Gabriel would
build another facility in this general area.
INSTRUCT CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO AGREEMENT WITH THE
COUNTY NOT TO EXCEED 180 DAYS TO CARRY ON THE PROGRAM
AND STUDY POSSIBILITY OF TAKING OVER WITH CITY FORCES.
M/S/C: MC CARON/WALDO. There were no objections.
