a replica, using material from the existing building; monies the
service clubs will raise during "Heritage Month" (April); the possi-
bility of donations of labor and materials by the labor unions; the
relocated building would have to meet requirements for public assembly
building as per Code; repair of existing structural damage; whether
or not State or Federal money could be secured; etc. Moved by Morgan,
seconded by Reid, to lay this over until Vice Ma or Camacho can work

Mayor Morgan's recommendations the Engineering Department be directed
to conduct a complete study of a future extension of Palm Avenue to
Sweetwater Road from the freeway and PALM AVENUE SETBACK be changed
from 10to 14'or 20' on each side of the street were presented. Mayor
Morgan said it may be 5, 10, or 40 years, but in the future Palm
Avenue will be busy and if future Councils desire to make Palm Avenue
a four lane street the setbacks would be there; after the freeway (805)
opens, there will be a lot of traffic in there; the Planning Commission
went along with this, it would be in the best interest of the City if
this is done; there is now a 10' setback, he would like to add four
and make it a 14, setback; this would not take anyone's property.
Moved by Pinson, seconded by Camacho, the setback be 14' (on Palm
Avenue). It was explained the City does not intend to buy this prop-
erty, this is only to prevent new building in that setback. City
Engineer Hoffland said (in answer to Councilman Dalla) by cutting the
lanes down to the very minimum and cutting the sidewalk area to a
minimum and with an additional 3', there could be a minimum 4-lane
facility plus on -street parking. Carried by the following vote, to -
wit: Ayes: Camacho, Dalla, Pinson, Morgan. Nays: Reid.
The City Engineer's recommendation that a "ONE-WAY PAIR" concept be
approved for "N" Avenue and Palm Avenue for future traffic require-
ments along the north -south corridor west of I-305 under this
concept, a 14' setback would not be required was presented. City
Engineer Hoffland said they have always felt that Palm Avenue and/or
a one-way pair should go all the way down to 30th Street and tie in
with Edgemere; they would like Council's direction at this time --to
make a study to carry Palm Avenue through; we have "N" Avenue through
but it doesn't line up with Edgemere. Moved by Pinson, seconded by
Camacho, to authorize the Engineer to make a study on this. Carried
by unanimous vote.
