Vice Mayor Hogue stated they were only talking about the conduit for the cable. Mr. Arnold said there was no way to put the conduit in; he did not understand how they could try to tell people how to put their tele- vision antenna up. VICE MAYOR HOGUE stated while vacationing in his native state he found peop'F were satisfied with conditions as they were; it was pleasant to be home again where they were all trying to develop their City. VICE MAYOR HOGUE called a Finance Committee meeting for Monday, July 8th, 4:30 p.m. VICE MAYOR HOGUE stated in reviewing the budget, there was one item missing: the salary of one of the City's employees. The Vice Mayor requested an Executive Session to discuss this, VICE MAYOR HOGUE inquired as to the status of the improvement of Harbison Avenue from Plaza to 16th Street. City Engineer Foster said when it was in the budget, they could proceed. City Manager Osburn said there was a Council initiated 1911 Act for curbs and gutters on Harbison Avenue; prior putting in curbs and gutters they would have to extend the Harbison Avenue bridge; money is in the Drainage Fund to extend the bridge to allow for sidE walks on each side of Harbison Avenue. Vice Mayor Hogue inquired when they could start on it. City Manager Osburn asked if he could answer that at tY.•;; next Council meeting. Mayor Morgan said after the Finance Committee meetin they could answer it better. 7/2/68 a0 OUNCILMAN COI -BURN stated he read a letter from the Chief of Police in regarc. to the new traffic entering signals placed in Chula Vista for north bound traffic in the mornings to Interstate 5 and the letter stated it might be necessary to eliminate left turns at 30th Street and 24th Street or to assign a man to direct traffic; he hoped they would consider assigning a man to direct traffic for peak morning hours on working days instead of eliminating left hand turns. Councilman Colburn inquired if it required Council action. City Manager Osburn said not at this time; the letter was for information; i' originated this morning and they did not notice any increase in the volume of traffic today; they will be watching it continuously to see what needs to be done as it develops. MAYOR MORGAN appointed Vice Mayor Hogue and Councilman Camacho as a committee to study the painting of traffic lines on 24th Street and to make a recommen- dation to the Council. Both accepted the appointment. MAYOR MORGAN said big swim meets are held at the Municipal Pool; it would help the situation if one inch of hot mix were installed over Newell Street and 23rd Street wide enough for two cars to go down to the pool and use the parking lot back of the pool; the condition of the streets now make a poor impression of our City to people from out of town. Moved by Hogue, seconded by Colburn, the City lay a layer of asphalt on those streets to improve the approach to the Las Palmas Pool. City Manager Osburn said some work was done there prior to the last swim meet. Raymond Kenny, 5985 Harvard Street, Chula Vista, was present and said there was no 23rd Street; he donated forty feet but they didn't accept it. Councilman Camacho stated there were homes on that street which were condemned for the freeway and many have been vacated; he inquired if there was any way they could be razed before the tournament. Mayor Morgan stated State law says a home that is going to be torn down has to set there for thirty or sixty days before this can be accomplished. Councilman Colburn suggested signs be erected stating "this is a future freeway site and the condition of these homes...nothing can be done;" out of town people could appreciate why the condition exists. Mayor Morgan asked the City Manager to take care of that. Carried by unanimous vote. Moved by Reid the City put up wire the length of the swimming pool along the golf course as soon as possible to keep balls from coming over. City Manager Osburn said a tentative price of $5,000.00 on this was obtained; their experts were not sure what the City was trying to put up would protect it; they're endeavoring to get advice on just where to put the fence to do the best job. Councilman Reid said on Main Street they could get it for well under $5,000.Ga. City Manager Osburn said the estimate he received was from Alco Fence Company, The USE DISTRICT HEARING ON THE PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO ORDINANCE NO. 962 TO PERMIT A RESTAURANT WITH AN ON -SALE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE LICENSE IN A C-2-A, SPECIAL LIMITED COMMERCIAL ZONE, was held at this time. Director of Plann- ing Stockman stated the C-2-A, Special Limited Commercial Zone, is located along Sweetwater Road in the area of the proposed freeway to freeway inter- change of Interstate 805 and 54 and the freeway to local interchange of Inter- state 805 and Sweetwater Road; the Planning Commission recommended the zoning be amended to permit a restaurant (not a dining roan in a motel as the ordinance provides at present) but it could include on -sale alcoholic beverages, subject to all food and beverages being served within a dining roc encompassed within a building or enclosed patio; full meal facilities shall be available; drive-in restaurants and restaurants serving primarily food to go shall not be permitted; no restaurant to be permitted on any parcel of land without approval of the location and plans by the City Council upon recommendation of the Planning Commission; in approving the location and plans, the Planning Commission shall take into consideration the provisions of off-street parking, potential and/or existing traffic hazards with relation to abutting streets, aesthetic appearance of the property and structures; the City Council may approve, modify or disapprove the plans and. location depending upon evidence provided by the Planning Commission, appli:.... and staff; the building must be aesthetic; all signs will have to be approve: by the Planning Commission. Raymond Kenny, 5985 Harvard Street, Chula Vista•. 7/2/68 Jl wrier of the property at 2956 Grove, was present and said he hnd a beer license at 2956 Grove when he annexed to National City, he told everyone who would listen to him, what his plans were; he could not continue to operate his place at that time because of Mr. Hynum who had a junkyard; they came up here many times to fight these people; he put $5,000.00 into his building. Vice Mayor Hogue inquired if they were planning on building a new building. Mr. Kenny sad they were not; they would remodel. Director of Planning Stockma,.; stated the Council was not taking under consideration tonight this man's piece of property but an amendment to the ordinance that would make this a permissible use in the C-2-A Zone; if they approved this amendment to the ordinance and it became effective, then Mr. Kenny would have to come back with his plans to the Planning Commission and at that time present his evidence for consideration. Councilman Reid inquired how long this section had been in the City. Mrs. Stockman stated it was annexed in 1962. Mayor Morgan said what they were trying to do was to upgrade the area. Mr. Kenny said they had already been through all channels; the Chief of Police has nothing against them and neither did City Attorney McLean. Councilman Colburn said the hearing pertained to a change in the zone which would allow Mr. Kenny to open his business after it had been approved; as it was zoned now he couldn't; if Mr. Kenny would allow than to continue the hearing and take their action, he could check with the City Planner and she would advise him as to what steps to take. Mrs. Kenny, 5985 Harvard Drive, Chula Vista, was present and said this property had been established as a business; she thought once a place had been established as a business then they would have to go through legal procedure to take it away from them; she could prove that particular piece of property had always been a business property and inquired why she was being penalized now; so fax as the building was concerned, she knew she would have to bring it up to building specifications; it would take very little money now to put it into a commercial building. Vice Mayor Hogue said the Ordinance does not allow a beer license in their present zone; what's before the Council is not whether they had a good business or not but shall they change the ordinance and to allow it...it has nothingl to do with Mrs. Kenny's business nor the type of business; the crux of the matter was whether or not they should allow a beer or liquor license in C-2-A zoning. Mrs. Kenny said she could prove there had been a liquor license there. Vice Mayor Hogue said they may change the ordinance; Council was going to decide tonight whether or not they would. E. H. Alsdorf, 2105 J Avenue, was present and asked what a C-2-A provided. Director of Planning Stockman said a C-2-A Zone was a type of hotel -motel tourist recreation area around the 805 Interchange and 5 4; the present ordinance provides they can have a dining room within a hotel and/or motel but they could not have a restaurant by itself. E. H. Alsdorf inquired where 54 was located. Mrs. Stockman said it was in Sweetwater Valley approximately south of Sweetwater Road and east of Edgemere Road. Mr. Alsdorf stated there should not be this change in the ordinance. Moved by Hogue, seconded by Colburn, the hearing be closed and the Planning Commis- sion's recommendation be approved.

CITY ATTORNEY McLEAN reported the State Committee on Governmental Efficiency approved Assembly Bill 202 which would amend the Brown Act to require notic€ of public meetings for all of the committees and advisory bodies of the City Council; in his judgment, the effect of this proposed amendment would make the ordinary conduct of the City's business impossible; for example, two members had just been appointed to study the 24th Street markings; with this proposed amendment they could not conduct any type of committee functic without making a 24 hour advance notice to the news media and fixing the time and place for the two councilmen to hold the meeting and inviting the public to attend. The City Attorney stated he did not believe that was consistent with good government and recommended the Council oppose Assembly Bill 202 and authorize City Manager Osburn and himself to telephone and to 7/2/68 6 cite to their local legislators, communicating to them the City's objections to the proposal and the reasons why it was not a practical method to conduct City business.

POLICE CHIEF CAGLE'S report regarding Mexican -American Community Relations Program, was presented. Moved by Colburn, seconded by Reid, the report be filed. Vice Mayor Hogue inquired if that meant they were approving it. City Manager Osbuxn stated this did not mean they were approving the project; they would re -submit their application if the Council approved. Mayor Morgan stated if there were no objections, the report would be filed. Vice Mayor Hogue stated he did not approve of this project; we are short of policemen; he could see no reason for sending two policemen to Mexico City for six months; this was a waste of money and time; if they wanted their policemen to understand Spanish, they could send them to Southwestern or they could hire more Mexican -American policemen. The Vice Mayor suggested the City set up its own program; Tomas Baker (retired Spanish speaking National City policeman), in the audience, could be employed to run a school. Mayor Morgan said it was not six months in Mexico City; the report says two months; sometimes you have to be on the scene to really understand it. Tomas Baker, 1421 E. 22nd Street, was present and said they had a problem which was very easy to solve: hire more Spanish speaking officers. Mayor Morgan said many policemen had been hired since he had been here but could not remember hiring a Mexican -American as a policeman because they never get in the top three. Councilman Camacho stated he served on the Civil Service Commission for a number of years; they advertised open examinations to anyo, who wanted to take it and during the time he was with them the only time a Mexican -American was in the top ten was in a Fireman's examination; apparentiy, there hasn't been enough stimulation to make them want to become police officers; he did not think it was because they were not capable but that they just hadn't wanted to or they would have had a number of them apply for it; they should start encouraging them in high school. Mayor Morgan said when Mr. Rubio was on the Civil Service Commission applications for all Civil Service examinations were taken to the EOC; Mr. Rubio said no one fror.- EOC made application for any of the jobs. E. H. Alsdorf stated at the Sweetwater Union High School graduation he heard many conversations between young men in Spanish; there were enough Spanish speaking young men in National City without requesting Federal funds. Mayor Morgan said whenever you have a population of 25% - 40% who speakone certain language, it was the duty of the elected officials of the City to have some personnel who speak the language of the 25% - 40%. Mrs. Felicitas Baker, 1421 E. 22nd Street, was present and said the National School District has 33.9% student- with Spanish surnames and she believed they were bilingual; she believed it 7/2/68 63 fould take more than two months to learn the Spanish language and culture. Mayor Morgan said his daughter and son-in-law were with the Peace Corp and were trained within three to four months to speak Spanish. Councilman Colburn said he understood the first phase of the program would be a crash Spanish learning process; the men would be relieved of duty and would study eight hours a day, five days a week; this was fine if that's what is needed but he did not believe all the policemen would go through the program and benefit by it; he did not believe they should be concerned any farther than their own individual concern with Mexico's culture. Motion to file carried by unanimous vote. The updating of the BUILDING AND MECHANICAL CODES was again presented for consideration. Moved by Colburn, seconded by Hogue, the request be approved. Councilman Reid stated the Director of Building & Housing was on vacation and he wanted to discuss some things with him which he did not like.

Moved by Reid, seconded by Camacho, the Cites Manager's recommendation be approved.
