Council members present: Colburn, Harris, Hogue, Reid, Morgan. Absent: None. ALMIINISTRATIVE OFFICIALS PRESENT: Foster, Linn, McLean, Minogue, Osburn, Stockman. The meeting was opened with salute to the Flag led by City Manager Osburn, followed with invocation by Pastor Oral Norton, Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints. Moved by Hogue, seconded by Harris, the minutes of the regular meeting of September 26, 1967 be approved. Carried by unanimous vote. CITY TREASURER IDA MAE KERR presented the Treasurer's Annual Report for the fiscal year 1966-67. The recommendation of the PLANNING COMMISSION the plans and use for the Charles H. Bacon Company, 200 East 26th Street, be approved subject to seven conditions, was presented. Moved by Hogue, seconded by Harris, the recommen- dation of the Planning Commission be approved. Director of Planning Stockman stated the construction company would like permission to install A. C. asphalt in place of concrete on the drainage ditch; the City Engineer and she concurred in this; she suggested Condition 1 be changed to read, "...Said two (2) foot setback to be utilized for the installation of an asphalt lined drainage ditch as approved by the City Engineer." Moved by Hogue, seconded by Harris, Director of Planning Stockman's suggestion be included in the motion. Vice Mayor Colburn asked Mr. Kerr (Larson Construction Company) who was in the audience the difference in cost of the asphalt and cement. David Kerr, 1211 Manchester Street, stated the difference would be approximately 90% or a difference of approximately $700.00. Vice Mayor Colburn inquired if the owner was aware that the asphalt might not last as long. Mr. Kerr said they were aware of this; their original plans called for asphalt; an error was made by the Planning Commission in assuming "paved" meant concrete; A. C. will not last as long as concrete but there will be no wear as there will be nothing but water drainage usage. Councilman Hogue inquired if the City would keep an eye on this drainage ditch to see that it doesn't deteri- orate and become detrimental to the other property owners. City Manager Osburn said they would although it would be a pr*blem with Bacon's own build- ing. Carried by unanimous vote. The DIRECTOR OF PLANNING'S report on her meeting with L. T. Derr to discuss the stipulations of the PlialoolnerCOmmission in their recommendation to approve the application for Commercial Planned Development Permit, west side of D Avenue, north of closed 32nd Street, was presented. City Clerk. Minogue reported receipt of and read a petition requesting a solid 6-foot wall, preferably concrete, be installed between the Derr property and those of the petitioners, signed by four property owners (Florence F. Costello and Arthur M. Costello, 3037 D Avenue; Clyde C. Pierce and Zelpha J. Pierce, 3103 D Avenue) in the area. Vice Mayor Colburn stated a solid fence as referred to in the petition i.s sometimes installed where there is a permanent parking lot adjacent to residences; consideration should be given to the+•trorary nature of the business located and the future use of the properties; he did not know about the police problems referred to in the petition although there were no complaints that he knew of. The Vice Mayor stated the Planning Commission should not consider anything but the facts when making a recommen- dation; the previous week they requested this be sent back to the owner and the Planning Director, not for a recommendation from her, but for a report back as to what possible relief could be given; now they have the original 10/3/67 81 restrictions recommended by the Planning Commission and in the case where Mr. Derr wanted any condition changed, it is listed; it would now be up to the Council to decide whether or not they would relieve any of these conditions; the owner .has stated that in two years it should be reviewed and if they felt at that time it looked like a permanent business they could demand these stipulations; he would be in favor of offering some relief on some of the conditions. Director of Planning Stockman said she did not agree to the granting of permission to park vendor's vehicles in the area to wait for a stall as they would come in as early as 4:00 a.m. and leave late; it would probably be very difficult for vendors to refuse to sell something if someone wanted to buy; it could be a policing problem. Mayor Morgan said it was time for the hearing and they would return to this discussion later. The HEARING ON THE PROPOSED VACATION AND CLOSING OF 25TH STREET (BETWEEN A AVENUE, VACATED, AND B AVENUE), City Engineer's Affidavit of Posting and Certificate of Publication and Affidavit of Posting on file, was held at this time. City Manager Osburn said this portion of 25th Street directly east of A Avenue is City owned property that will go under option to the Continana Convalescent Center within the next few days; it is included within the legal of their description of the property; the street for all practical purposes is closed now. David Shapiro, 2511 B Avenue, was present and said he had a plan of his property with him and would like to be shown what would happen to his property. The City Manager suggested Mr. Shapiro come to the Civic Center the following day. Moved by Colburn, seconded by Harris, the hearing be closed and it be referred to the proper authorities for further processing. Carried by unanimous vote. Discussion was reopened on the application for Commercial Planned Development Permit for Mr. L. T. Derr, west side of D Avenue, north of closed 32nd Street. Councilman Hogue stated the area was rezoned without the approval of the people who live there; in our report from the Planning Commission and the Planner it was suggested fencing be erected to cut down the amount of sound and light which might disturb the residents; he agreed with the suggestions of Planning and the owner except that a fence should be installed to cut down the sound and light from automobiles during the short winter days after Daylight Saving Time ends (some kind of wooden wall rather than masonry since it would be just temporary); the petition suggested a lot of people get there early in the morning to get the best stalls; if this is a problem, he could not see why they could not make reservations ahead of time. Mayor Morgan stated this situation was in reverse of the usual; this property owner wanted to put in parking. Councilman Harris said he was in sympathy with the residents not wanting the area taken over by industry; in consider- ing putting the vendor trucks on the lot and letting them wait there, this might tend to encourage more of them to come in and park there and perhaps he would be in favor of eliminating that; there were parking lots all over town (especially on the west side) next to residences that had been there many years; now industries are next to them with adjacent parking lots; there are no fences and they live with it; when you live in an area that changes you have to change your ideas and live with it. Councilman Harris further stated so long as they approved the request on a two year basis, he would be in favor of not having a fence. Director of Planning Stockman displayed a map. Mayor Morgan inquired as to the elevations of the residences and the parking lot. Mr. Derr said the parking lot was 14'8" below 31st Street. The Mayor inquired if it went back to the Planning Commission could they write rules and regulations to require him to put in permanent fencing after two years. City Attorney McLean said they could grant him a limited permit. Councilman Reid inquired where this "two years" came from. Director of Planning Stockman said her reports have always indicated the flood control channel is before Congress atihis time and was scheduled, along with Highway 54, for completion in 1972. Councilman Reid said a.commercial paid lot could not be compared to residential; with the exception of a cement block wall, the Planning Commission had done a good job on this; he would go for a solid wooden wall. Mayor Morgan asked if the "two years" was in the original report. Director of Planning Stockman said that came from Mr. Derr. Vice 10/3/67 82 Mayor Colburn said Mr. Derr requested Item 1 (original recommendation of the Planning Commission) be changed to read: "a. A Commercial Planned Develop- ment Permit be issued for a period of two (2) years at which time it should be reviewed by the City Council after recommendation of the Planning Commission, for renewal for continued operation taking into consideration change of conditions." Mr. Derr also stated rather than having a solid fence or wall six feet in height erected along the northerly property line of the proposed pay parking lot, he be permitted to put traffic barriers of solid poles to eliminate vehicles within four feet of the north property line of .. the parking lot; he also requested no additional fence or hedge be required on the west property line which is bordered by a gourd farm, he would install the poles four feet from the west property line; Mr. Derr also stated as Item d, "No parking to be permitted on the westerly parking lot boundary," and Item e, "Smooth wire fences to be installed and maintained on southerly and easterly property lines," and also that he would remove all barbed wire fences that the Planning Commission did not like the looks of. The Vice Mayor also said under Item 8 (..."any portion of the property encompassed within this Planned Development will not be used for vendors waiting for space...) Mr. Derr would like this allowed, not for display or sales, but so that when the vehicles arrive, if there is a line waiting to get in which could end up on D Avenue and around the corner they be allowed to pull in and wait until stalls were available. Vice Mayor Colburn suggested the holding area for these vehicles be in the free parking lot in the south end which wouldn't bother the residents of the area. Councilman Hogue inquired if they didn't some time ago force the Ja Mac Lumber Company to install a fence at their place of business which was there on a temporary basis. The Mayor said that was correct. Councilman Hogue stated whether the business would be temporary or not, if it interfered with the people who lived in the area, it would not be too much expense to have the applicant put up a redwood fence to protect the residents. Mayor Morgan said the Planning Commission chairman spoke to him about this and said they would like to review this to see if they would agree to change it in some farm and came back with a recommenda- tion. Councilman Harris said Mr. Derr stated last week in about two years conditions would change in the valley and this use of the property wouldn't be needed. Director of Planning Stockman said she would recommend it be a two year permit and require Council action in two years. Moved by Harris, seconded by Morgan, since the "two years" just came up last week and evidently hadn't been considered in the PlanningCommission, this go back to the Planning Commission for reconsideration on a two year basis. Director of Planning Stockman said to set the record straight, in regard to the applica- tion for the west side of D Avenue, the "two years" was before the Planning Commission; she had given them two alternates.: one was to go two years and come back for a review without the conditions being required, the other was with the conditions being required; the; Planning Commission chose the con- ditions rather than the two years. Motion carried, by the following vote, to -wit: Ayes: Colburn, Harris, Morgan. Nays: Hogue, Reid. The report of the DIRECTOR OF PLANNING on her meeting with L. T. Derr to discuss the stipulations of the Planning Commission in their recommendation to approve the application for Commercial Planned Development Permit west side of F Avenue between closed 32nd Street and closed 31st Street, was presented. Moved by Hogue, seconded by Colburn, they accept all of the Planning recommendations including all of Mr. Derr's recommendations, except the one pertaining to fencing of property facing toward the residential area. Director of Planning Stockman pointed out the areas which were affected by the application on the map; she said the Planning Commission recommended a six foot solid redwood fence 8' back from F Avenue to the southerly line of his line and pointed out the rest of the lines on the map. Mayor Morgan said there was already a 6' or 8' fence starting at F Avenue around the corner and back to the north corner and inquired if Mr. Derr would have to put in another fence. Director of Planning Stockman said the Planning Commission did hear people in the audience say they did not desire to have their fence used as a portion of the closing of the new parking lot with no protection for them. The Mayor inquired if the purpose was just to guard against lights, why should there be two fences; he said trash could accumu- late between fences and be a fire hazard. Councilman Hogue said he would 10/3/67 83 not favor putting up a second redwood fence if retaining poles were installed; he did not know there was a fence there already as it hadn't been mentioned in the report; he inquired where the people were asking for a fence. Director of Planning Stockman said people were asking for a fence along F Avenue (there is no fence there) and pointed out the other places on the map (along the northerly boundary of subject property westerly from F Avenue and northerly along abutting residential properties). Councilman Hogue said he would like to change his motion to include lust those three areas that the Planning Director was talking about and also include in the motion that he put some kind of retaining parking poles there to keep the people from parking up against the other people's fences. Included in second. Councilman Harris said he was confused and would like to know if Mr. Derr wanted to install any fences. Director of Planning Stockman said Mr. Derr agreed to put a fence along F Avenue 8' back from the east property line. Motion carried, by the following vote, to -wit: Ayes: Colburn, Harris, Hogue, Morgan. Nays: Reid. VICE MAYOR COLBURN stated the policy on travel expenses to conventions or meetings was $30.00 per day to cover hotels and meals; he requested Council's approval of a change in this because expenses are running over the allowance per day; he suggested a recommendation from the City Manager as to the amount they should establish. The City Manager said he would prefer to bring a recommendation to the Council later. COUNCILMAN HOGUE stated open houses at public schools were always scheduled on Tuesday nights; there were Council members and members of the audience who would be interested in attending open house and if proper he would like the Council to offer a suggestion to the schools that they choose another night just once. The Mayor asked Councilman Hogue to check into it and report to Council. COUNCILMAN HOGUE stated he felt it was the consensus that if he were to ask for a report from the City Manager or others, the report caxld be influenced by the thinking of other councilmen before being brought to the Council floor; he hoped when he asked for a report from any department heads the influence of any other councilmen would be kept out of the report until brought to him on the Council floor. MAYOR MORGAN stated there was a vacancy on the Civil Service Commission and recommended the appointment of Mr. Robert Knight, 525 E. 26th Street, to fill the vacancy. Moved by Hogue, seconded by Reid, the Mayor's recommenda- tion be approved. Carried by unanimous vote. CLYDE HAWKINS, 3109 F Avenue, was present and said they would like the fence as recommended by the Planning Commission on F Avenue on the Derr property; he said there was an extension to the fence they would like added to it; it should go down on the north and south sides of the lot of a depth of 125'; that is the depth of all of the property owners on that side of the street; he also stated F Avenue was used constantly for parking by high school students and due to the street being very narrow, it was often hard to get out of his street; the street would also be as crowded on Saturdays and Sundays as well unless the residents there get a little protection. Vice Mayor Colburn inquired if they had thought of going to the County for relief as that portion of F Avenue was not a City street. Mr. Hawkins said they were trying to get one side of their street designated as a "no parking" area; this has not gone through as yet. S. A. Sonullin, 3131 F Avenue, was present and said they were losing sight of the fact that the requested fence was to be built on Mr. Derr's property which would be an improvement to it; he would not be losing money on it because it would make his property wcrth more. Lawrence Nelson, 3108 F Avenue, was present and said they all wanted the fence for two reasons: to keep the trash from being blown over their property and because Mr. Derr volunteered to put the fence down the side of their property; they do not want a Swap Meet up against their back door and they felt that is what would happen eventually. Mr. Nelson said the "squawk 10/3/67 84 boxes" start early and about blast you out of your bed; he thought there was an ordinance that said that the "squawk boxes" couldn't be used until 10:00 and he would like to have that clarified. Mayor Morgan said the City Manager would check on that. Moved by Hogue, seconded by Colburn, the reading of the following three resolutions be waived and they be adopted by reading of the titles only. Carried by unanimous vote. RESOLUTION NO. , "RESOLUTION SUPPORTING THE SOUTH BAY GUIDANCE CENTER AND REQUESTING THE SAN DIEBGO COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO PROVIDE FUNDING UNDER THE TERMS OF THE SHORT-DOYLE ACT." Moved by Colburn, seconded by Harris, the resolution be tabled until further report is received from the City Manager regarding the South Bay Guidance Center. The Mayor stated he would make some statements in defense of the motion. Motion and second with- drawn. Mayor Morgan outlined the work of the Guidance Center and spoke in favor of the Resolution. Councilman Hogue stated if there was someone in the audience who could tell them how quickly this was needed, he didn't thinkthey would delay it; however, there was no one there and he would like to know just what they were doing for the children, the number of children they are reaching, etc. The Mayor said this Center needed help; the children could not help themselves, defend themselves, nor come out and tell people what they need. Councilman Harris stated he moved in favor of the resolution. Councilman Reid inquired if the City Manager had talked to Mr. Heggland (County Administrator) on this. He replied that he had not. Councilman Reid said he was not against this but would like to know why they were cutt- ing it out. Mayor Morgan said the Board of Supervisors have indicated they will go along with this; before the people got interested in the South Bay and called meetings on this, they were going to close it down and our children who needed help had to go to the north part of the County; we need such a center in the South Bay so it will not be necessary for them to travel so far for help. Councilman Hogue stated isn't it true part of the reason for closing down is because of a duplication of services already being offered and in order to reduce the cost of State Government the Center was to be eliminated from the State Budget. Mayor Morgan said for the resolution to do any good, it would have to be passed tonight. Vice Mayor Colburn said if the resolution came in too late for last week's meeting, they should have had some information on this; he would like to find out why they would take it upon themselves to ask their County Board of Supervisors to support something that has been cut back by the State; he didn't doubt the value of the project but if it was that important they should have had information in support of it. Moved by Colburn, seconded by Hogue, this item be tabled until this information is available. Carried, by the following vote, to -wit: Ayes: Colburn, Hogue, Reid. Nays: Harris, Morgan. RESOLUTION NO. 9458, "RESOLUTION IN APPRECIATION FOR THE TWO EUROPEAN, WHITE, FALLOW DEER DONATED TO THE NATIONAL CITY ZOO BY THE BURNS RANCH."

Carried by unanimous vote. RESOLUTION NO. 9459, "RESOLUTION OF AWARD OF CONTRACT (Fifth Street Storm Drain, Specification No. 723)." Moved by Colburn, seconded by Harris, the Resolution be adopted. Carried by the following vote, to -wit: Ayes: Colburn, Harris, Hogue, Reid, Morgan. Nays: None. The City Manager read the result of the opening of bids. ORDINANCE NO. , "An Ordinance of the City of National City, California, Relating to Street Improvements and Underground Utilities," was presented for the first reading. Moved by Colburn, seconded by Hogue, the first read- ing of the Ordinance be by title only. Carried by unanimous vote. The title 10/3/67 85 was read. Councilman Harris said it was asking too much of the people to go underground in older sections but he would like to see them have it on sub -divisions. Moved by Harris, seconded by Colburn, the ordnance be amended in regard to individual lots in existing residential sections where two or less dwellings are constructed where no underground utilities exist be eliminated from the ordinance. City Manager Osburn said there was a letter on the Agenda from the City Engineer objecting to the sidewalks as they are written in the ordinance now. Moved by Harris, seconded by Colburn, the motion include that the sidewalk section be deleted from the Ordinance. Vice Mayor Colburn said he hoped they could come up with an additional amendment after more study as there was merit in the Planning Commission's thinking that when sidewalks are against the curb people take care of their front yards from the sidewalk back to their homes. Carried, by the following vote, to -wit: Ayes: Cblburn, Harris, Morgan, Nays: Hogue, Reid. CITY ATTORNEY McLEAN stated there was an application by the Gray Lines Tours to increase rates in various parts of California; he didn't see that the City had any interest in that matter; he would not do anything about it unless he received instructions to the contrary. CITY ATTORNEY McLEAN said in the matter of the progress being made on the joint venture with the South Bay Irrigation District to acquire a public water company, Monday (October 2) was spent with the attorneys for the two agencies drafting a current version of the 1959 Joint Powers Agreement; on Friday of this week he would go to Los Angeles to meet with O'Mellveny and Myers, the firm of attorneys retained by the Council to advise on the bond issues which would be involved in the venture to receive their approval for the proposed plan of acquisition; he anticipated the 1967 Joint Powers Agreement would be submitted to the Council for study in the first two days of next week. CITY ATTORNEY McLEAN said referred to him for report was the matter of installation of streets at the same time public improvements were installed in excess of $2500.00; .he needed to have the decision of the Council in several regards: whether or not the Council wants an ordinance that would require the installation of the street in front of the premises under the same circumstances that we now require the installation of curbs, gutters and sidewalks; this would encompass putting the street in in front of a single family residence; or whether the Council wants to require the installation of streets only when there are multiple dwellings; he needed to know if the Council wanted to require the installation of a half a street or a whole street and if they wanted to require the installation of a street only in front of the lot affected, assuming it was a multiple unit constructed, from the lot affected to the corner of the block. Mayor Morgan asked the City Manager to report to Council what would be in the best interest of the City and make two or three recommendations. Vice Mayor Colburn said he felt this proposed ordinance should pertain to any development that would encompass at least a block of unpaved streets; it should not include a single house where there were no paved streets.
