MAYOR HODGE stated the Council will now discuss the request of the
South Bay Plaza as presented by- Mr. Dunker. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN
asked if the City has any or iiiance that would prevent a wild animal
circus being held in National City. ATTORNEY CURRAN stated our or-
dinances provide that circuses can be held in National City by se-
curing of the licenses. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN asked what the provisions
in our ordinances are regarding tax on ticket sales. ATTOP EY CURIIN
stated it is his understanding Mr. Dunker is requesting the provis-
ions of our licensing ordinance be waived; the only provisions with
reference to waiver are in the event the receipts are to be used
solely for charitable or benevolent purposes and not for the purpose
of private gain, in that event, the City Council could waive, or •
should -license fee that was being assessed be paid by a religious,
charitable, fraternal,, educational, military, state, county or mun-
icipal organization, the City Council would also have jurisdiction
to waive the payment. MR. DUNkER stated it is the $25.00 per day
permit fee and the $2,000,00 bond for which they are asking a waiver.
COUNCILMAN FESSMAN asked whether the ordinance would permit the Coun-
cil to waive the permit fee, because of the license the South Bay
Plaza Corp. now has. ATTORNEY CURRAN stated the Council does not
have jurisdiction to waive the $25.00 per day fee. COUNCILMAN FESS-
MAN inquired if the same .would apply to the bond. ATTORNEY CURRAN
stated it would appear the Council could determine no bond was nec-
essary. Moved by Fessman, seconded by Allen, the request of Mr.
Dunker regarding the waiver o the bond be allowed and all other
provisions of the request be '..:;.pied, according to the ruling of the
•
City Attorney. Carried, by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Allen,
Fessman, Hart, Hollingsworth, Dodge. Nays: None. CITY MANAGER
BIRD stated he was handed a notification by the Inspection Dept.
stating there are three or four trailers in which people are living,
and they are connected with the circus. GENE TRACEY, representative
of the Paul Miller gild Animal Circus, was present and stated there
are possibly trailers that have just come to town.. but will definitely
be parked on the lot and will be used for offices only, not for liv-
ing quarters.

necessary to get rid of these insects. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN said he
did not think this is a matter that requires Council action, it

CGUNCILJAN AT.TJN stated the Civil Service Commission made a recom-
mendation to the Council, any Ater he arir. some of the remarks made
he did not believe some of the Council members know what the Civil
Service Commission is supposed to do. Mr. Allen said he wanted to
go on record as suggesting the Council members read the Civil Serv-
ice Ordinance and then see if we cannot do something about taking
the recommendations of the Commission. COUNCILMAN HART stated he
thought all the employees should be under Civil Service. MAYOR
HODGE stated he thinks the Civil Service Commission is doing a wond-
erful job, but whether or not the Engineers are under Civil Service
is a matter of policy, and he does not think the Civil Service Com-
mission is a policy board; whether the Park is under Civil Service
or whether it is not is a matter of policy; that concerns the people
involved and the City Manager. The Commission is doing a wonderful
job, but he does not think any of the Commissions or Boards of the
City should make recommendations in regard to the policy, that is
for the Council to do. COUNCILMAN ALL; N stated there are four people
in one department who do not know whether or not they are under Civil
Service. COUNCILMAN FESSSM N stated it is the policy of the Council
whether they want these people to be under Civil Service, or not.

COMMUNICATION FROM KATHERINE H. SIEH, Owner of Snackmobile, 3120
National Avenue, was read, urging the acceptance of an ordinance per-
mitting the operating of lunch trucks within the city limits of Nat-
ional City. This is a new business and as yet she does not have the
health permits. The cities of Chula Vista and Imperial Beach have
accepted the San Diego County Health Ordinances, with changes pertain-
ing to each particular City, and asks that National City also adopt
them. COMMUNICATION FROM LEO BLOTTER, Manager Spee-D-Lunch, was read
stating he would like to make application for a license to operate
lunch delivery trucks in the City of National City. In the event an
ordinance is required for the regulation of such operation, it is
suggested for purposes of uniformity the ordinance recenty adopted by
the City of San Diego be followed. KATHERINE H. SIEH, Owner of Snack -
mobile, was present in regard to her request. COUNCILMAN FESMAN
.stated there is only one reason he would not be in favor of this type
of operation, and that is the tendency to create a lot of litter in
the areas where the trucks operate. MRS. SIEH stated the operator of
the trucks see to it personally that all litter is collected before
they leave. MAYOR HODGE stated these people get their health permits
from the County, and asked if they have had a problem in that regard.
MRS. SIEH stated the problem i,_,National City does not have an ordin-
ance permitting lunch trucks, and she cannot make application for a
health permit until National City has such an ordinance. MAYOR
HODGE asked the City Attorney what would be necessary to solve this
problem. ATTORNEY CURRAN stated the County Health Officer is also
the City Health Officer, and he is not certain as to the legal ground
on which the License Clerk is refusing to issue a license in this case.
There have been some previous communications from the Health Officer
on this matter and they should be reviewed. The question for the
Council to decide is whether or not they want this type of operation,
and if they do the matter can be taken care of. Moved by Allen, sec-
onded by Hart, the Attorney be instructed to check into this, and if
it is necessary, he prepare an ordinance to allow this type of oper-
ation. Carried, by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Allen, Hart,
Hodge. Nays: Fessman, Hollingsworth. LEO BLOTTER, Manager of Spee-
D-Lunch, was present and stated it is his understanding from Chief
of Police Smith if they receive a license to do business, they can-
not park on the streets, but must go inside of the business property,
and any containers or papers they might have will not be on the
street, but put in receptacles on the property.
COMMUNICATION FROM CAUPORNIA-W STERN STATES LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY
was read, regarding the Federal Welfare and Pension Plan Disclosure
Act, CITY MANAGER BIRD stated the Federal Government has passed an
act and requires an opinion from the City Attorney as to whether we
must file with the Federal Government. Moved by Hollingsworth,, sec-
onded by Hart, the communication be referred to the City Attorney

REPORT FROM THE TRAFFIC SAFETY COMMITTEE was read, recommending two
hour parking be extended south from 12th Street to 18th Street on
Highland Avenue and the following cross streets be zoned for limited
parking for one-half block adjacent to Highland Avenue: 6th Street
1/20/59
260
west of Highland Avenue, both sides, 125 feet; 10th Street west of
Highland Avenue, both sides of 10th Street, 125 feet; l2th Street
east of Highland Avenue, both sides of 12th, 125 feet; 16th Street,
east and west of Highland Avenue, both sides, 125 feet; 18th Street,
east and west of Highland Avenue, both sides, 125 feet; and 16th
Street, both sides one block east of National Avenue. CITY MANAGER
BIRD reported the two hour parking signs on 3rd Street have been in-
stalled, pursuant to Councilor directive. The other matters ordered
by Council are practically finished. Moved by Allen, seconded by
Fessman, the recommendation of the Traffic Safety Committee be ac-
cepted. Carried, all the Council present voting aye.
REPORT FROM THE TRAFFI 4 ETY COMIVIITTEE was read, recommending the
request for a street/a and 4D' �1venue be referred to the City
Manager for action. It was the feeling of the Committee in many
cases the location of street lights has no bearing on traffic safety
and such requests should be referred directly to the office of the
City Manager for action by Council. The Committee feels a cross.
walk should be installed across 41,4 Avenue immediately north of 10th
Street. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN stated -he requested the matter of a
street light at 28th and Highland be referred to the Traffic Safety
Committee some months ago and there is no light there and no report
has been received. MAYOR HODGE stated he thought that §ny street
forms a 4T4, should have a street light on it. CITY MANAGER BIRD
stated he would like to have the request for a street light at 28th
and Highland to him, and he will make a report on the situation. It
has been the policy of management to recommend, or to ask the Traffic
Safety Committee to consider the dead end streets. Mr. Bird stated
with reference to street lighting in general, we do not have any
lighting districts in National City and all street lights are paid
for out of general funds. The increasing number of installations
plus the increase in rate, effective as of October, 1958, has raised
our street lighting budget to approximately S38,000.00. The policy
of the Council in the past has been where subdivisions have been put
in, we have immediately installed street lights, and where we have
widened streets and thought they were inadequately lighted, we im-
mediately wanted to have proper lighting. sae had a request relative
to the National Avenue business none for increased lighting. To ad-
equately light Highland Avenue, replacing the five 6,000 and the two
20,000 lumen lights between 8th Street and 18th Street, and adequat-
ely light it, we will have to expend in the neighborhood of S4,800.00
per year. If the Council wants to light Highland Avenue, Mr. Bird
said he would like to have a directive so we can start negotiating a
contract with the SanHDiego Gas &Electric Company. For the rest of
the City, other than our business districts, we have tried to stay
oar a pattern of a light every 500 feet. We have had to deviate from
that because of dead end streets and cul-de-sacs and off center
streets. If we light Highland '"venue from 3th to 18th Street, we
will have to light the rest of highland Avenue, and we expect in
approximately six weeks to hove the report of the City Engineer on
the widening of Highland Avenue between 4th and 8th Streets. Jith
reference to a light at 28th and Highland, we know there is a petit-
ion in the field to widen the rest of Highland Avenue. Mere we put
1/20/59
261
in these lights on company owned poles, we must sign a contract with
them and under the new P. U. C. regulations cannot be for less than
one year, .and not more than five years. Mr. Bird asked if the Coun-
cil wishes to spend from $96.00 to $100.00 a year in the interim and
pay the cost of moving that light. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN stated he
thought that would be a cheap price to pay if it would prevent an
injury. COUdCILA0MiN HOLLINGS4ORTH stated she thought since we know
that possibly the rest of Highland Avenue will be widened, it should
be deferred until such time as it is widened. Mrs. Hollingsworth
said she would like to see the Council adopt a policy that on any
major street improvement, such as Highland Avenue, we do have ade-
quate lighting; but in view of Mr. Bird's report, we may not be able
to hold the line and keep our tax rate down next year; that she does
not see how we can continue to carry the tremendous lighting bill we
have in this City on the present taxes we have. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN
stated he thought we should think about balancing the cost of this
extra lighting on Highland Avenue with the additional amount of sales
tax revenue that street is providing, each year. Cie should reserve
some of the money and put it back for that purpose. The same thing
should apply to the rest of our business districts. Moved by Fess-
man, seconded by Allen, the City Manager be authorized to execute
the contract for the vapor lights en Highland, from 8th to 18th
Street. Carried, all the Council present voting aye.
CITY MANAGER BIRD stated we are in need of a ditch digger for the
Sewer Department, and he has explored the possibility of leasing
three different machines which we have tried out in the past two or
three weeks in actual operation. Mr. Bird requested the Council's
consideration to have the City Attorney prepare a lease rental agree-
ment with the K. C. Y. Tractor Company for a case model tractor,
lower back hoe, 24 inch bucket combination. Moved by Pessman, sec-
onded by Hart, the City Attorney be instructed to draw up a rental
contract, as outlined by City Manager Bird, for the renting of a
ditch digging machine. Carried, all the Council present voting aye.
COUNCILMAN ALLEN stated it has been brought to his attention some
people are of the opinion the sewer ordinance does not contain the
language that would force anyone whose cess pool has become inoper-
ative to hook to the City's sewer system, and he was under the im-
pression it was a requisite. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated the ordinance
does not specifically spell out this must be done, but it does spell
out you must be hooked to the sewer one year after, and that policy
has been set aside by Council, and substituted for it the policy
when a cess pool or septic tank goes bad, then it will be incumbent
upon you to hook up to the sewer. The ordinance also spells out the
availability of the sewer. A sewer is not considered available if
it is more than a 125 foot run, and it cannot be by gravity.
REPORT FROM THE PLANNING COM:1:33ION was read regarding application
for zone change signed by Dale Mann relative to Lot 16, Block 2, D.
E. Lozier's Subdivision (vest side of dF„ Avenuein the 1300 Block).
Petitioner is requesting a zone change -from an R-1-A, Suburban
District, to an R-4, Multiple Residential District. This request

foot lots, and would like to have the zone established the same on
both lots to permit a 50 foot building site. First public hearing
held by the Planning Commission on November 24, 1958 and recessed
until the meeting of Decmeber 8, 1958. Second public hearing was
held on January 12, 1959. The Commission recommended the proposed
