REPORT JROM CITY ATTORNEY CURRAN stated the Commandant of the Elev-
enth Naval District has replied to the Council's inquiry regarding
the 0livewood Housing Project. Communication from the Commandant
was read, stating hexeceived Mr. Curran's letter dated March 21, 1960
concerning the 0livewood Housing Project requesting his opinion as to
any change in conditions since the previous correspondence which
would indicate the project could be terminated without serious impact
on the Navy's housing requirements. There has been no significant
change in the local Navy housing situation since Adm. Hartman's let-
ter of June 11, 1959, and there is a strong continuing need for the
Olivewood Project. In view of the advancing age of the Olivewood
Project and the evident desirability of early retirement, he would be
willing to consider plans or proposals by the City for a gradual
phasing out of these facilities. Moved by Allen, seconded by Hart,
the City Attorney direct a letter to the Bureau of Personnel, Navy
Dept., via the Commandant of the Eleventh District, stating it is our
intention to phase out the Olivewood Housing in three stages: the
first stage on our most valuable and the easiest to get returns from,
on that portion of the property west of National Avenue, to be phase
one; leave the vacancies that occur there go and within 180 days to
have that portion of it ready for disposal. The second phase start-
ing shortly thereafter would be from National Avenue to "D" Avenue,
including all the two story units in that particular area, and that
be started after the other has been demolished, probably within 270
days from the start of phasing out; and that the third phase about
270 days from the end of phasing out the second phase will be that
part of the Housing from "D" Avenue to Highland Avenue, which is the
best of the Housing and should be torn down last. The property that
we would be able to turn over, lease, or sell, whichever the Council
4-26-60
410
would desire would be several blocks on National Avenue, M zone first,
then 0 and R-4 and then the 300 feet on Highland which would be com-
mercial. MAYOR HOLLINGSWORTH stated she could not vote for this
motion, she would be very much opposed to it because she does not
think the west side which has the permanent housing should be the
first to go; it should be the temporary housing between National
Avenue and Highland Avenue in two sections and you would be phasing
out the most valuable if you took the west side. There is plenty of
industrial area there to be developed owned by private people and she
did not think the City Council should be competing with our citizens
who are interested in leasing or selling high priced industrial land.
Mayor Hollingsworth stated the Admiral requested plans and proposals
by the City and he should be the one we directly deal with; also the
thought it should be referred to the Finance Committee and have advice
from the City Manager, Mr. Gautereaux and various ones in the City to
formulate a plan. Mrs. Hollingsworth stated it is her understanding
that in order to dispose of the mousing the Council must hold hear-
ings. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated in 1957 the City Attorney presented
to the Council a lengthy statement which is on file, setting forth
the procedure necessary as far as the contract w ith the Federal Gov-
ernment is concerned in relation to that specific portion of the m re-
tract, or application for acquisition which specifically states
defense industries, and it has been the recommendation of the City
Attorney, which is on file, that procedure be followed. VICE MAYOR
HART stated he wished to withdraw his second until we can find out
just what we can do. Motion died for lack of a second. Moved by
Hart, seconded by Reid, this letter and information the City Manager
has be brought out by the City 'Attorney himself next week. Carried,
by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Hart, Morgan, Reid, Hollings-
worth. Nays: Allen.

ance and endorsement be filed. Carried, all the Council present vot-
ing aye.

ately start work on plans which he knows will be necessary, so they
may take segment by segment so they on staff will be in a position to
present to Council, when they make their decision that which might,
or might not, change their opinion as to which they prefer to phase
out first. Moved by Allen, seconded by Morgan, the recommendation of
the City Manager be approved, and the City Planner be instructed to

REPORT FROM PLANNING COMMISSION regarding the appeal of Mrs. Ken
Knight, 541 "V" Avenue, on denial of waiver of installation of curbs
and sidewalks by the Planning Commission at their regular meeting of
April 11, 1960, was read. At the regular meeting of the Commission
on April llth a request for waiver on Ordinance No. 962, Section 10,
Paragraph E was processed. Report from the City Engineer recommended
curbs and sidewalks be required as a grade can be established in.a
reasonable time. At this time the Commission therefore denied the
waiver of said installation. The appeal of Mrs. Ken Knight referred
to the Commission by the Council was again taken to the Commission at
their regular meeting on April 25th, at which time it was moved and
unanimously passed curbs and sidewalks be installed. The reason
behind this motion is that "V" Avenue is now dedicated 30 feet in
width from 5th Street to 8th Street and since Mrs. Ken Knight is com-
mencing to develop her property on the east side every effort Should
be made to provide adequate ingress and egress to this area. Further,
when Mr. Cheneweth develops his portion of property on the east side
of "V" Avenue south of the subject property, he too should be required
to install the same improvements, and the street will become a much
better travelway and g'eatly upgrade the entire area. Moved by Allen,
seconded by Hart, the recommendation of the Planning Commission be
upheld. COUNCILMAN MORGAN stated there are some problems to be con-
sidered, and wished to know if it is the intention to tie in "V" with
5th Street, and asked the City Engineer what was the intention. CITY
ENGINEER LILL stated the Planning Commission's report stated "V"
Avenue is dedicated on the east between 5th Street and 8th Street, and
that would be the grade established and the improvements would be put
in between 5th and 6th Street, and the grade would be established all
the way. COUNCILMAN MORGAN stated the way that land is levelled when
"V" and 5th are tied together there mill be a ten or twelve foot rise
so where they intend to build two more houses their level will be ten
4-26-60
4:4
or fifteen feet below the sidewalks and curbs. They have quite a prob-
lem. VICE MAYOR HART said he wished to withdraw his second until the
next meeting and he would like to know more about this problem before
he votes on it, MAYOR HOLLINGSWORTH stated it has been the experi-
ence in the past that where you have one property owner only who has
to put in curbs and sidewalks it becomes a hazard and if there are
going to be any pedestrians walking along there they will be coming up
to a sidewalk and then stepping off of one, and asked the City Manager
if this is one of those places that might have to be barricaded. CITY
MANAGER BIRD stated he had not looked at this situation for quite a
long time. Motion died for lack of a second. Moved by Allen, sec-
onded by Reid, this be laid over until the Council goes out and looks
at it. VICE MAYOR HART said he would also like to have the City Engi-
neer give the Council a report on it next week. Carried, all the
Council present voting aye.
CITY MANAGER BIRD reported he has a Covenant Running With The Land
from Dean and Nadine Turner, and recommended it be referred to the
City Attorney to prepare the resolution of acceptance. Moved by
Allen, seconded by Reid, the Covenant from Mr. and Mrs. Turner be
referred to the City Attorney for the necessary resolution. Carried,
all the Council present voting aye.
CITY MANAGER BIRD stated with regard to the letter of protest from
Mr. and Mrs. Burnett which was presented last week, and which upon
his recommendation was referred to various departments, he has these
reports. REPORT FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION was read, stated con-
struction in this area as proceeded by Mr. Befort under local laws
only, not subject to subdivision maps and laws. In view of this
information no negligence or malfeasance can be seen on the part of
the Planning Commission on the property known as 2110 Orange Avenue.
REPORT FROM CITY ENGINEER LILL was read, relative to the letter from
Alec and Ruth Burnett concerning driveway at 2110 Orange Street. It
was recommended all work be held up until the City could set grade
stakes for the driveway. The stakes were scheduled for the morning
of ,April 7th but the driveway was constructed before the grade stakes
were set. REPORT FROM THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT was read. This office
does not ordinarily issue authorization permits for concrete flat
work on private property when structures are not involved, therefore,
no driveway permit was either requested or received by Mr. Befort or
Mrs. Burnett. CITY MANL.GER BIRD stated the application as signed for
by Mr. Befort specifically states, and it is over Mr. Befort's signa-
ture: "I will obtain full information from the City on sewer loca-
tions and depths, and street grades so that the building, plumbing
4-26-60
415
and driveways will meet same." It was the recommendation of the City
Manager the letter of complaint to Council from Mr. and Mrs. Burnett,
the owner, be filed. Moved by 1{Mrgan, seconded by Reid, we follow the
recommendation of the City Manager. Carried, by the following vote
to -wit: Ayes: Morgan, Reid, Hollingsworth. Nays: Allen, Hart.
COMMUNICATION FROM DR. J. B. ASKEW, Director of Public Health, was
read, stating recently Mr. Kahler came to his department and left a
copy of his April 9 letter addressed to the City Council in which he
and his wife object to the proposed sanitary fill of the "Duck Pond".
The men in the Division of Sanitation have informed Dr. Askew they
would like to see the sanitary fill at the "Duck Pond" established, as
this would eliminate much of the mosquito breeding area now being
supervised and controlled by their Mosquito Control Section. It is
necessary for them to treat and pump out this area, and it would be
their recommendation the sanitary fill be established in this area.
CITY MANAGER BIRD stated he had four letters in regard to this matter
which he would present at this time: COMMUNICATION FROM CHULA VISTA.
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE and the NATIONAL CITY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE were read
opposing the sanitary fill. COIJIMUNICATION FROM J. H. KAMMERER was read
stating in 1934 the State put in a 48 inch drain under National Avenue
at the "duck pond", it was then above grade and the water ran out. Mr.
Kammerer said the water backed up on him and he protested, but to no
avail. He has asked at various times for relief, both from the County
Supervisors and the State Highway but has received none. COMMUNICATION
FROM MR. AND MRS. RUSSELL A. KAHLER, was read stating they own the
property located at 45 E. 31st Street, and are very anxious that the
County carry out their proposal to fill this unsightly slough. Also,
there are several substantial landowners in the area who are for the
proposal and who spoke in favor of the fill at the hearing before the
Zoning Commission on April 8th. E. H. ALSDORF, 2105 "J" Avenue, was
present, and stated a week ago he was at a meeting of the Board of
Supervisors and asked them if there would be any burning at this place
and the answer was "no", and he also asked them how much smell there
would be and they said there would be very little. It is his under-
standing there will be no Sunday delivery of material. Mr. blsdorf
said he told the Supervisors he was not against it. The Board of
Supervisors have no other place, except 30 miles out, for a sanitary
fill.. Moved by Allen, these letters be filed as long as our letter of
protest is still active with the County klanning Commission and the
County Board of Supervisors. Motion died for lack of a second. Moved
by Morgan, seconded by Hart, we send a letter to both the County Plan-
ning Commission and the County Board of Supervisors protesting this
"dump site." COUNCILMAN MORGA11i stated the letter might inform them
4-26-60
416
there is a new Council member and wish to reaffirm the Council's pro-
test. Carried, by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Allen, Hart,
Morgan, Reid. Nays: Hollingsworth,
COMMUNICATION FROM J. G. FRY, Chief Engineer, The Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe Railway Company, addressed to the City Manager, was read,
stating in one of their recent conversations verbal agreement was
reached to the effect that 24th Street will be paved to a travel width
of 64 feet, and the Santa Fe would bear the expense of a type G curb
and gutter together with 20 feet of paving on each side of the street,
leaving a 24 foot strip down the middle of the street which the City
would pave. It is Mr. Fry's recollection this improvement would extend
on 24th Street between Harrison and Tidelands Avenue. It would be
appreciated if the City's Engineering Department would furnish his
office with plans and estimates for handling this work similar to the
manner of handling curbs and gutters along Tidelands, which job is
now underway. It is requested the City arrange to handle the entire
job, and after receiving estimate of their portion of the work they
would be in a position to approach their management for authority to
handle their costs. CITY MANAGER BIRD recommended the City Engineer-
ing Department be officially authorized to prepare plans for paving,
curbing and grading of 24th Street in the area mentioned. Moved by
Hart, seconded by Morgan, the recommendation of the City Manager be
approved, that the Engineering Department prepare plans, etc. Car-
ried, all the Council present voting aye.
CITY MANAGER BIRD stated last week we had a communication from the
State Health Department relative to the rabies situation. Subsequently
we had a meeting on the City Manager's level with Dr. Askew. REPORT
FROM CHIEF OF POLICE CAGLE was read, relative to rabies control.
National City is under the following status: No. 1 is covered by
Ordinance 828, Section 9; No. 2 is covered by Ordinance 828, Section
12; No. 3 is covered by Sections 16 and 18. No. 4 is covered by Sec-
tion 18. No. 5 is covered under the Ordinance by Section 1. No. 6.
This is Division of Rabies Vaccination Clinics at cost. Mr. Bird
stated the five preceding requirements of the State law we are
covered by our Ordinances at the present time. We do not have the
provision of rabies vaccination clinics at cost. The communication
further states each year, usually in December, all County Veterinar-
ians provide a three day vaccination clinic at cost, previously the
fees have been $2.00. The usual cost for rabies vaccination is now
$5.00. In discussing the matter with our local Veterinarian, Dr.
Rockwell stated he would be willing to undertake a similar program in
National City such as is now being used in Chula Vista. The City of
4-26-60
417
Chula Vista is now paying for the vaccine and the Veterinarians are
now donating their services free at a charge of $2.00 per dog; and
Dr. Rockwell offers this to National City if we will provide $50.00
for the vaccine. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated in discussing this matter
with Dr. Askew he stated at the present time we can to comply with
this section of the State law either do it as proposed by Chula Vista
and by Dr. Rookwell's proposal, or by a. proposal with our own Public
Health Dept. Mr. Bird said he did not want any action on the rabies
clinic because we are in conformity in five of the six points covered
but we will go further into the matter and see what we come up with
depending on the severity of the rabies situation. COUNCILMAN AT,TJ.N
asked if we would not lose another Commissioner if we went along with
this proposal.
