ATTORNEY CURRAN stated with refer*nce to the letting of the contract
for the Improvement of 8th Street between "L" Avenue and Sanitarium
Avenue, he previously recommended the contract not be let because of
the suit filed between the California Water and Telephone Company and
National City. The California Water and Telephone Company in its
5-17-60
4,4
answer to the cause of action, sets forth an offer that pending the
determination of the rights of the parties in this street to divide
equally the costs of the relocation, and the offer being made without
acknowledging the correctness or validity explains their contentions.
It is the recommendation of the City attorney the City of National
City accept this offer of the California Water and Telephone Company
to divide equally the costs without acknowledging the correctness of
any claim on the part of the company and solely for the purpose of
permitting the improvement to go forward and without prejudice to any
right to claim refund in the event the court should find that the
California Water and Telephone Company has the obligation of relocat-
ing the facilities on that street at its own cost and expense. The
City Attorney also recommended there be ;;.mmediate authorization to
draw a warrant for the estimated one-half cost so the work Can pro-
ceed and the action can be taken on the contract and the award to the
low bidder made. Moved by Allen, seconded by Morgan, the City Attor-
ney's recommendation on the continuing of the project on E. 8th Street
and also his recommendation a warrant be drawn for half the expenAes
be approved, so we can continue with the project. Carried, by the
following vote to -wits Ayes: Allen, Hart, Morgan, Reid, Hollings-
worth. Nays: None.
ATTORNEY CURRAN stated at the last meeting he reported upon receipt
of a notice from Great Amerioan Insurance Company of New York, and
examination of the records in the Clerk's office indicated this was
not a sidewalk license bond, it is therefore not necessary for the
City Clerk to take any action on this matter, and recommended this
notice be filed. Moved by Hart, seconded by Morgan, the reoomuen.da,-
tion of the City Attorney to file the notice of the Great American
Insurance Company be approved. Carried, all the Council present
voting aye.
ATTORNEY CURRAN stated the communication from John Hancock Investment
Company advising us action had been taken pursuant to provisions of
law authorising a California corporation to change its name, has been
examined. In the opinion of the City Attorney it is not necessary to
make a formal assignment of the lease which the John Hancock Manufae-
turing Company now holds with National City; the change of name pro-
ceedings is in effect an operation of an assignment by law and there-
fore the intent of the letter was simply to advise the City the name
of the corporation had been changed; that is the only change being
made, and this communication can now be filed, and it will not be
necessary for National City to take any action in this matter. Moved
by Allen, seconded by Reid, the City Attorney's recommendation on the
5-17-60
445
lease of John Hancock Investment Company be approved. Carried, all
the Council present voting aye.
MRS. ROBERT RICHARDS, 1411 E. 16th Street, was present and stated
several weeks ago Mayor Hollingsworth brought to the attention of the
Council the accomplishments of one of the groups at Sweetwater High
School, that was the speech group; and Mrs. Richards said she would
like to bring to the Council's attention two other groups from that
school; the Cadet Corps, and three students who won top honors in the
Sixth Annual State Driving Contest. Mrs. Richards said she thought
we can be justly proud of our students and our High School.
E. H. ALSDORF, 2105 "J" .Avenue, was present, and stated the County
Planning Commission has approved the objection the City Council of
National City to filling the "duck pond". Mr. Alsdorf said he would
like to state that we must have some place for the refuse and the
Chamber of Commerce has not come up with a place as requested by the
Board of Supervisors.
COUNCILMAN ALLEN stated the Council has had a policy whereby the
employees of the City of National City can live outside the City with
the exception of the Police and Fire Department employees. Last year
we had a recommendation by the Fire Chief and the Police Chief that
these people not live out of the City. Mr. Alien said all the cities
he knows of are not forcing their firemen and policemen to live in
town, they give them a certain radius, and he would like to see our
firemen and policemen have the same privileges. Mr. Allen said he
would like the members of the Council to give this some consideration
and next week he intends to make a motion in this regard. MAYOR
HOLLINGSWORTH asked if Mr. Allen had any reason to believe the two
department heads have changed their minds. COUNCILMAN ALLEN said we
have a new department head in one department and he will have an
opportunity to express his opinion. VICE MAYOR HART said he thought
if the employees lived within a ten mile radius of National City they
could get to work quickly as most people living in the City.
HEARING ON REASSESSMENT OF HERDING AVENUE from 13th Street to 20th
Street and 20th Street from Harding Avenue to Wilson Avenue, was held
at this time. ALFRED LORD, Attorney for Griffith Company, was present
and stated he has examined the reassessment roll and had some discus-
sion with the City Attorney, and since last talking with Mr. Curran
he has changed his position in the matter and he was going to ask that
a correction be made; however, he now feels that the reassessment roll
is proper and asked that the roll be confirmed. Moved by Allen, sec-
onded by Reid, the hearing be closed. Carried, all the Council pres-
ent voting aye.

COUNCILMAN ALLEN made reference to the Casa de Salud, and stated he
knows there are some intentions and possibilities of building a new
building; but when it can be erected is a question probably City
Manager Bird can answer at the next meeting; also the location of the
proposed building. At the present time those using the Casa de Salud,
particularly for athletics do not have any showers, and he thought
for the amount of activity there would justify the City replacing the
showers that have worn out so they can be used until such time as the
new building can be erected. Moved by Allen, seconded by Hart, this
matter be referred to the City Manager and Mr. Gautereaux to see if
something can be done about it. Carried, all the Council present vot-
ing aye.
COUNCILMAN ALIEN stated he thought a street light should be installed
at the corner of 7th and Sal of Street, in Shirley Manor Subdivision,
and asked the City Manager to check this.
COUNCILMAN ALLEN stated he made a proposal on the possibility of phas-
ing out the Housing and he believed someone stated there would be some
action within a month; the month is not quite up, but he wished to go
on record as having brought up the Housing again, and so far he has
not heard anyone else make a proposal. MAYOR HOLLINGSWORTH stated
this was referred to the City Planner and City Engineer for a report,
and until that report comes in any discussion on the matter is out of
order.
COUNCILMAN ALLEN stated he has not received any concrete information
as to When the police range is going to go in; perhaps the City Mana-
ger will have something to report on this.

HEARING ON TRAMPOLINE ORDINANCE was held at this time. MAYOR HOLLINGS-
WORTH stated she believed all the Council members have had the oppor-
tunity to read the trampoline ordinance as adopted by the City of San
Diego, and her feeling. is that it is not anything we would want; it
sets up a Board for regulating trampoline centers and it would appear
to make the City more responsible for anything that would happen at
one of these centers. Mrs. Hollingsworth stated the only thing she
could think of that might be worth while to adopt an ordinance would
be whereby, in order to get a business license to operate in the City
of National City, these people would have to file a certificate with
the City showing ample insurance. COUNCILMAN REID stated he had a
copy of the ordinance the City of El Cajon adopted and he gave it to
the City Planner, and would like all the Council members to read that.
Moved by Allen, seconded by Morgan, this matter be postponed until
such time as the Council can all have a cou of the E1 Cajon ordinance,
whioh probably would suffice for National City, with some possible
changes and it could be referred to the City Attorney to see if there
should be any additions or deletion, in order to protect a City of our
size; and that the trampoline centers receive a cony of the El Cajon
ordinance so they can study it. COL. LIPPINCOTT, operator of the
Jumping Jack Trampoline Center, 720 E. 10th Street, was present and
stated there is a club formed which is recognized by the Amateur Ath-
letic Union, and they do not use the name "trampoline", they use the
words "rebound tumbling". They are registered with the Amateur kth-
letio Union and they have a club formed of about 20 boys and girls and
the name of that club is "National City Rebound Tumblers." Col. Lip-
pincott made reference to certain sections of the ordinance of the
City of San Diego regulating trampoline centers; and felt that they
were not applicable in many instances. The number of injuries have
been very small, comparably speaking; there have been two deaths in
the United States from the use of trampolines. The San Diego ordinance
requires two spotters, and Col. Lippincott said he thought this was
unnecessary. The hazard and the danger of rebound tumbling has been
played up too much and it may be if too stringent regulations are
adopted those regulations might have to be adjusted at a later time.
MAYOR HOLLINGSWORTH asked Col. Lippincott if he had read the El Cajon
ordinance, and asked if he would object to the Council holding this
matter for another week in order to study their ordinance. COL. LIP-
PINCOTT said he had not read the ordinance and would have no objections
to postponing it for another week. COUNCILMAN ALLEN said he would
appreciate it if Col. Lippincott would report on the ordinance of El
Cajon if there is something he objects to. Carried, all the Council
present voting aye.

CITY MANAGER BIRD stated he is in receipt of a preliminary report
regarding 0livewood Housing, the method of disposing same. It is a
lengthy report and was made after studies by the Director of Housing,
taking into consideration all facets; that which might occur in the
matter of the phasing out; it carries a recommendation and sets forth
the reasons for the recommendation. It was the City Manager's recom-
mendation this be referred to the Finance Committee and at that time,
if possible, we will have the report of the City Planner which ba.s
been requested by Council, within the time limit as was promised.
VICE MAYOR HART said he would like to have copies of the report made
so each member could have a copy in order to study it. Moved by Hart,
seconded by Reid, this report be referred to the Finance Committee.
Carried, all the Council present voting aye.
CITY MANAGER BIRD reported he is in possession of the detailed plans
of the pistol range, he is not in possession of the specifications,
they are being typed and put into shape so we will be in a position
to bid. Mr. Bird requested the Council members to review the plans
in his office so they can familiarize themselves with the project and
we will probably be ready to go ahead with this project within the
next two or three weeks.
CITY MANAGER BIRD reported he is in possession of the Master Sewer
Plan. REPORT FROM CITY ENGINEER LILL was read stating the Proposed
Master Plan for National City Sewers was transmitted with the report.
Some of the pertinent items developed by the report were set forth.
The following recommendations are offered: (a) The improvement of
the National City Sewerage System should receive a high priority.
(b) The City of San Diego should agree on the improvement proposed and
should pay its fair share of the cost of such improvement. (c) Pay-
ment of this share could be made by crediting such cost against
National City's cost of the Metropolitan Sewer System. CITY MANAGER
BIRD stated this is a very comprehensive report; we have not contacted
the City of San Diego as yet, but we will be doing so after the
Finance Committee looks at these documents so we can project our
thinking into this coming budget and succeeding budgets thereafter.
COUNCILMAN ALLEN asked if it was the thinking we will be able to
finance this without a bond issue, or will it be necessary to put a
bond issue on the ballot. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated that is one of the
reasons he wants this report to go to the Finance Committee, because
it hinges upon other things: 1. Disposal and phasing out of Housing.
2. A decision as to the site for the City Hall. 3. A decision as to
the disposal or rental, whichever the policy of this Council is going
to be; so we can project ourselves to see where these monies are oomitg

from. Moved by Allen, seconded by Reid, the report on the proposed
Master Plan for Sewers be referred to the Finance Committee. Carried,
all the Council present voting aye. COUNCILMAN ALLEN suggested on
something as important as this, the members of the Council who are not
on the Finance Committee be notified so they can attend the meeting
for information.
COMMUNICATION FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION was read, stating due to
the recent ruling it has been necessary for George James and Dr. Hugh
Rockwell to submit their resignations as members of the Planning Com-
mission. It has been reluctantly moved and passed the two resignations
be approved since the Commission will be losing two very valuable men,
one having served his community for the past eight years. Therefore,
it is requested a certificate of outstanding service to his community

ing an appointment be sent to Dr. Rockwell. The following names were
submitted for consideration to fill the two existing vacancies: Wil-

appointed William Gibbs and James L. Dodd to serve as members on the
Planning Commission. Moved by Morgan, seconded by Hart, we approve
the appointments as made by Mayor Hollingsworth. Carried, all the
Council present voting aye. COUNCILMAN ALLEN stated he knows Mr.
George James, since about 1944 has been an auxiliary policeman and a
reserve policeman, and he believes he has served two full terms and
part of anoter one on the Planning Commission, and he knows it is more
than eight years he has served the City and would like to see he gets
credit for more than eight years on his certificate. Moved by Hart,
seconded by Morgan, the certificate be given to Mr. James with the
correct number of years on it. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated the dates can
be checked and reaffirmed by the records. Carried, all the Council
present voting aye.

nation of Wayne Lill as CityEngineer. Moved by Hart, seconded by

5-17-60
452
vacation for that length of time and we will not have a City Engineer.
CITY MANAGER BIRD stated the question which has been raised is this:
At the last meeting Mr. Bird stated he raised the question as to the
legality of payment, and he was ordered to ascertain the amount of
time which Mr. Lill had coming, which is certified by the Personnel
Clerk as 75 days. If the motion before the Council prevails, Mr.
Lill's termination date will have to be dated September 1st and he will
continue to draw his pay, although he will not be here working for the
City, which actually means if the Council requests the City Manager
to employ a City Engineer he will have to employ an Acting City Engi-
neer for that time. COUNCILMAN ATTF;N asked if it is not possible that
if the resignation was accepted, an Assistant Engineer, already employed
could run the department for the time being without having to hire
another one until after the expiration date of the leave accrued by
Mr. Lill. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated he believed he is legally correct
in saying he will have to have an Acting City Engineer because of the
necessity of signing of plans, documents and certifications of street
improvements, etc. As to the present Assistant City Engineer, Mr.
Bird said he did not know whether he is in good standing with his
certificate in the State of California and he will inquire as to such.
Mr. Bird said he saw no reason to inquire into whether or not he was
willing to consider the Acting City Engineer's job until such a time

Ayes: Allen, Hart, Reid. Nays: Morgan, Hollingsworth. CITY MANAGER
BIRD stated pursuant to the motion just taken he would like to have
authorization to attempt to employ an Acting Engineer. VICE MAYOR
HART stated before attempting to employ an Acting Engineer, he sug-
gested the Engineer we have be checked to see if his papers are in
order. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated he would like authorization, because
even if he attempted to employ the Assistant City Engineer he would
have to have authorization, because he would have to be elevated to
Acting Engineer during the interim. Moved by Allen, seconded by Hart,
the recommendation of the City Manager be approved. Carried, all the
Council present voting aye,
CITY MANAGER BIRD rep< ted he had received the report of the Chamber
of Commerce as to their activities and turned it over to the City Attor-
