JAMES COLBURN, 3865 Delta Street, San Diego, was present and stat- ed the City's zoning regulations gives no consideration for an apartment. Mr. Colburn stated he has an eleven unit building proposed to be built at 19th and Highland. The Planning Commis- sion interpreted it to be a multiple dwelling rather than an apart- ment hotel. The plans were revised to include two stores in the front with an apartment above and the remaining eight apartments in the rear; and when applying for a building permit, he was in- formed that it was still a multiple dwelling even though it con- tained stores. Mr. Colburn stated he would like a definition of his building. VICE MAYOR HOLLINGSWORTH stated she was present at the Planning Commission meeting last evening when this matter was discussed and the matter of the store building did not enter into the discussion. CITY PLANNER WAGNER stated that the matter of a store structure was not discussed at last night's meeting, and the Planning Commission interpreted that the structure pre- sented to them was a multiple dwelling with eleven living units inside. Mr. Colburn appeared at the office this morning and show- ed in marked crayon on his plans the lower two apartment units fading on Highland Avenue crossed out and indicated as stores. He read the section of the Ordinance which allows that the minimum building lot site area should be 5,000 square feet. In a C-3 Zone: Building Site and Area Required: None for business and commercial uses, provided however, that where apartments are es- tablished above any business or commeecial use, then these shall be at least 600 square feet of lot area for each such apartment on the lot. This requirement, however, shall not apply to hotel rooms. Mr. Wagner stated if his interpretation is correct the only two units within this building that would qualify would be the two directly above the two stores. Mr. Colburn stated it is their feeling that it does come under the C-3 Zone. S. O. GRANGER, Chairman of the Planning Commission was present and stated a great deal of time was spent with Mr. Colburn at the meeting of the Commission regarding his proposed building site. His marked up drawing does not change any of the rear building. If he wished to put stores through the entire bottom part of the building he would be within his rights to come in to the Council and ask that consideration be given to his plans, that would conform to the Ordinance the way it is now written. Moved by Fessman, seconded by Jensen, that we sustain the Planning Commission's interpret- ation of la,t night, as being in accordance with the Ordinance. Carried, all the Council present voting aye, VICE MAYOR HOLLINGSWORTH announced that Mr. Wayne Macy, owner of the Skating Rink in National City, asked her to extend to the Council an invitation to attend their first anniversary at 2Lth and Highland Avenue, on Saturday evening, March 31st. VICE MAYOR HOLLINGSWORTH reported that Fred Peterman, a member of our Planning Commission has been very ill, and suggested that a "get well" card be sent from the Council. Moved by HF:�:Kc, sec- onded by Fessman, that the recommendation of Vice Mayor Hollings- worth be approved. Carried, all the Council present voting aye.

Carried, all the Council present voting aye. COMMUNICATION FROM CALIFORNIA WATER & TELEPHONE COMPANY was read, regarding Susan Manor Subdivision. The developer has entered in- to an agreement with the Water Company for installation of the necessary facilities and has deposited the necessary funds. Upon completion of the work, water service will be available upon de- mand. CITY CLERK ALSTON recommended this be referred to the CITY ATTORNEY. Moved by Heck, seconded by Fessman, that the City Clerk's recommendation be allowed. Carried, all the Council present vot- ing aye. CITY ENGINEER LILL stated that Mr. Shattuck, developer of the Susan Manor Subdivision, is anxious to have the subdivision map approved at the next Council meeting, and it appears likely that the plans will be in order at that time. Mr. Lill said he would like to have it on the agenda for the next meeting so that the subdivision agreement could be signed, and the map could also be approved at the next meeting, providing the Council so desires. Moved by Heck, seconded by Jensen, that this matter be brought up on the agenda of April 3rd. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. COMMUNICATION FROM CHAMBER OF COMMERCE was read, stating that the Blood -Mobile Unit will be in National City, Thursday, April 19, from 2:00 P.M. until 6:00 P.M., at the Masonic Temple, 8140 Nat- ional Avenue. CITY NiNAJER BIRD recommended this be referred to the Municipal Employees' Association, as they may want to take collective action on it to build up their own Blood Bank. Moved by Jensen, seconded by Fessman, that the City Manager's recommend- ation be accepted. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated he received a communication from the National School District which requires advice and subsequent ap- proval by the City Council. He requested this be referred to the Finance Committee to bring in a recommendation to the Council. It is in reference to a school site in the Olivewood area. Moved by Fessman, seconded by Jensen, that the City Manager's recom- mendation be approved. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated he would like authorization to have the Mayor sign three contracts with the Ford Company for our prowl cars. The contract form has been submitted to the City Attorney and is substantially the same as last year. Moved by Heck, sec- onded by Fessman, that the City Manager's request be allowed, and the Mayor be authorized to sign the contracts with the Ford Com- pany. Carried, by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Fessman, Heck, Jensen, Hollingsworth. Nays: None. Absent: Hodge. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated sometime ago we received a communication regarding the possibility of elimination of trucks on certain streets. It was referred to the Traffic Safety Committee and was returned by them because of lack of jurisdiction on their part. We now have other requests from residential areas. We do have a truck ordinance which in essence sets forth one street in the City for truck use, namely Roosevelt Avenue from Main Street to 18th Street, or the continuation of West Avenue. We are running into a considerable amount of heavy truck traffic in our residential areas, and recommended that the matter of setting forth prohibit- ion of trucks in certain restricted commercial areas be explored, and that a map be submitted of those areas, by the Traffic Safety Committee, and it be referred to the City Attorney to see whether 3/27 266 legally we can prohibit this situation. COUNCILMAN HECK asked which streets in particular were concerned. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated Harbison, North Belmont, South Belmont, which are fine residential streets. COUNCILMAN HECK stated Harbison Avenue is a gas tax fund street. The trucks going to North Belmont and those areas are going, no doubt, for a specific purpose, and in that case there cannot be any prohibition made for trucks going to a specific address in that particular area. VICE MAYOR HOL- LINGSWORTH stated that in the event San Diego goes through with their master street plan of connecting Logan Avenue with Harbison it would mean that Harbison Avenue would have a constant stream of trucks and traffic. Moved by Fessman, seconded by Jensen, that the matter be turned over to the Planning Department and the Traffic Safety Committee for study. Carried, by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Fessman, Jensen, Hollingsworth. Nays: Heck, Absent: Hodge. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated sometime ago there was referred to Man- agement a proposition of working out, if possible, the wa.e- ser- vice to be extended on "T" Avenue from 4th to 6th Stree.. It has been worked out satisfactorily between the property owners and the Water Company, and the City has agreed to give to the Water Company the finished grade so we will not run into a situation of having to move water facilities when improvements are made. CITY MANAGER BIRD reported that previously a hearing was set for the sale of certain properties, namely the property located at 16th and Hoover Avenue. It was held up temporarily because of the zone use map which was to be adopted. The property is Lots 1 to 10, plus the vacated 40 feet of 17th Street, in Block 48, which is now proposed as an M-1 Zone. An appraisal has been made and if the Council so desires, he would recommend that the City Attorney prepare a notice of bid and sale of the property. Moved by Fessman, seconded by Jensen, that the City Manager's recom- mendation be approved. Carried, by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Fessman, Heck, Jensen, Hollingsworth. Nays: None. Absent: Hodge. CITY MANAGER BIRD reported that we have four lots; Lots 1 to 4 inclusive in Block 4 of 10 Acre Lot 8, Quarter Section 154, South- east corner of 15th and "C", and recommended for the Council's consideration authorization for the City Attorney to set forth a hearing so that it can be sold legally. Moved by Heck, second- ed by Fessman, that this parcel of property be advertised for sale, and the City Manager's recommendation be allowed. Carried, by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Fessman, Heck, Jensen, Hollings- worth. Nays: None. Absent: Hodge. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated, if and when the Traffic Safety Committee brings in a favorable report, the light at Valle Vista and 20th Street can be put in without any construction cost, it will cost the usual price for a 6,000 lumen lamp which is $4.50 per month, or $54.00 per annum; the 5th and Sanitarium light is in the same status. The light at 5th and "V" will have to wait for possible construction cost. The three lights requested in National Vista No. 3 can be put in without construction cost; and the three in Ricardo Terrace are in the same category. We were not able to have the proper celebration which had been asked for by several members of the Council in connection with the lighting of Nat- ional Avenue from 13th Street to the City limits, the reason prim- arily being that it is not on a major switch; however the light- ing is completed. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN inquired as to the status of traffic lights at 13th and Harbor Drive. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated he checked with the State Division of Highways and they now have a new Traf- fic Engineer who has been assigned to Ralph Luckenbach's depart- ment, and Mr. Luckenbach has assured us it will be one of his first projects to carry through to completion. There is a sit- 3/27 267 uation of which they are definitely afraid of, and that is where the main highway comes in on a curve there is a lack of visi- bility and their experience has been that it has created more of a traffic hazard and resulted in a number of accidents, there- fore they are progressing very slowly on the request. However, they have promised us a definite answer very shortly. COUNCIL- MAN FESSMAN stated if we do not get a traffic light soon, he is going to ask that we have a police officer stationed there to direct traffic during certain hours. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN stated sometime ago we asked that a survey be made of comparative wage rates and salary schedules of other cities in this area, and asked if any action had been taken in this regard. CITY MANAGER BIRD stated the survey is practically completed and he is ready to present it to the Finance Committee anytime the Committee wishes. Moved by Fessman, seconded by Heck, that the matter be referred to the Finance Committee for their consideration. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. VICE MAYOR HOLLINISWORTH asked if the new subdivision law pro- vides that street lights are to be furnished by the contractor. CITY PLANNER WAGNER stated he believes it is, however, the matter has not reached that stage in the Planning Commission's discus- sions as yet, but it was the intent that it be the requirement; also fire hydrants, street signs and ornamental street trees. All of the improvements required in a subdivision will be in, when accepted by the City. REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC HOUSING GAUTEREAUX was presented. Net revenue for February was $22,741.24- REPORT FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION was read, regarding Appli- cation for Conditional Exception No. 542, signed by Kile Morgan, relative to the property at the southeast corner of l8th and "I". Petitioner is requesting commercial usage in a residential dis- trict to construct a real estate office. Ample off street park- ing will be provided since the property is 50 feet by 85 feet while the office will be 32 feet by 32 feet. It was the recom- mendation of the Planning Commission that the Council grant this variance under the condition that it be used as a real estate and or contractor's office and not a doctor's office, etc., and that the 15 foot setback as required in the R-2 Zone be observed with adequate off street parking to accommodate a minimum of not less than three cars. Moved by .Heck, seconded by Fessman, that the Planning Commission's recommendation for the conditional ex- ception be allowed, and that improvements of sidewalks and curbs be made in front of the property on "I" Avenue. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. Moved by Heck, seconded by Jensen, that the conditional exception be referred to the Attorney for the preparation of a resolution. Carried, all the Council pre- sent voting aye. REPORT FROM THE PLANNIN3 COMMISSION regarding Application for Conditional Exception No. 543 signed by Arthur M. Huehn, was read, relative to property at the northwest corner• of 19th and "G". Petitioner is requesting variance in square footage from 8,000 square feet to 7,812 square feet; also variance in usage from two family residence to multiple family residence. Petitioner desires to construct another duplex upon this property. The Commission recommended the granting of R-2 usage to build on the shortage of square footage, but use the proposed R-3 setback re- quirements for front yard and that all other setbacks be observed as required by the R-2 Zone. One off street parking to be pro- vided for each unit. Moved by Heck, seconded by Fessman, that 3/27 268 the conditional exception be permitted and they be required to install sidewalks and curbs on the entire parcel of their prop- erty as a condition of the granting of the conditional except- ion, and that it be referred to the Attorney for the preparation of a resolution. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. REPORT FROM. THE PLANNIN3 COMMISSION was read, regarding Applicat- ion for Conditional Exception No. 544 signed by C. E. & Eliza- beth Stone, 520 Palm Avenue. Petitioners are requesting permis- sion to establish a beauty shop in the back bedroom of the exist- ing dwelling and to erect a rustic lamppost and use the words "Beauty Shop"_ The Planning Commission recommended the granting of the petition for the uses described, and restricted to that use, not transferrable or salable and limited to the owner's op- eration, no additional employees; sign not to exceed 3 square feet. COUNCILMAN HECK asked if Palm Avenue is to grade in this particular area. CITY ENSINEER LILL stated it is in better shape there than it is other places on Palm Avenue; but it would have to be st Jied to see if it is to a desirable grade; and see if the strp 73E1tir:g would be desirable for future grading; COUNCIL- MAN HECK sa5d he thought this should be tabled until the next meeting and await the Engineer's report to see if the existing grades would be comparable to what we would require in the future. Moved by Heck; seconded by Fessman, that the matter be tabled until the next Council meeting. Carried, all the Council pre- sent voting aye. REPORT FROM THE FLANNIN3 COMGMISSION was read, regarding Applicat- ion for Conditional Exception No. 545 signed by Normal Williams for Fred's Auto Salva,je, 1904 McKinley Avenue, Petitioner is requesting to use the p>emises for automotive storage and solvate. No resale of automobile or parts therefrom, either wholesale or retail. Mr. Williams stated that since he submitted his request he has made provisions to purchase an existing salvage yard in National City and would lil:e permission to store usable automo- biles only at this location and would not need the variance for a saivFge yard. Cars will be stored, no parts are to be salvaged, no -•,rate .ing is to be done and no sales will be made from this lot. The Commission's interpretation of the ordinance is to allow stor- age of usable cars, but does not allow salvage and therefo-re the salvage part was denied. Moved by Jensen, seconded by Fessman, that the Planning Com;i.ssicn's action be sustained. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. COMMUNICATION FROM CITY P`._A7'NER WAiNER was read, stating at the Planning Commission meeting of March 26, 1956, a communication from the San Diego County Planning Congress was read, urging ad- option of a resolution supporting the passage of bills, in the California State i_egislatuee, for the establishment of an 9ffice of Physical Planning for the State, a State Planning Officer, and a complete and properly staffed office of Physical Planning. The City Planning Commission recognizes the need for such an office and therefore unanimously passed a resolution in support of the legislation and respectfully urged the Council to do likewr,se. If the Council agrees with the Planning Commission's re'ommend- ation and pass such a resolution- it is urged that copies be mail- ed immediately to Senators Fred A. Kraft are;' Fred Larr in Scra- mento, RESOLUTION OF THE CITY PLANNIi'k COM .SSION URGINr AL,OPT- ION OF CALIFORNIA STATE SENATE BILL NO, 28 70 PROVIDE FOR A ( OW- PLETE AND PROPERLY STAFFED OFFICE OF PHYSICAL PLANNINd, was read. COUNCILMAN FESSMAN stated he is opposed to any State regulati " n or State Planning. He said he thought government should be kpt closer to the people than Sacramento. VICE MAYOR HOLL1N5SWORT`ri stated we now operate under a State Planning Act. COUNCILMAN 3/2 7 269 FESSMAN stated he recognizes that but the Act is actually an en- abling act, enabling the cities to govern their own planning act- ivities, and it is not necessary for a regulation by which the State Planning Commission can tell any area what kind of industry they can have in it, or what they can do, and that is what they could do if the Planning Commission were see up by the State. COUNCILWOMAN JENSEN was in accord with Councilman Fessman's think- ing. CITY PLANNER WANNER stated he believes the intent is main- ly to aid in the coordination of long range plans of all the State agencies involved. After further discussion, it, was moved bar Heck, seconded by Hollingsworth, that the Resolution be adopted. Motion lost, by the following vote to -wit: Ayes: Heck, Hollings- worth. Nays: Fessman, Jensen. Absent: Hodge. Moved by Heck, seconded by Fessman, that the resolution be tabled until the next Council meeting. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. VICE MAYOR HOLLINaSWORTH asked that the Planning Commission not send in their resolution until we have further consideration. CITY PLANNER WANNER reported that in reflecting on the discussion of subdivision ordinance requirements with respect to improve- ments, certain provisions that seem desirable to the Council and the Planning Commission, have been objected to by the National City -Chula Vista Realty Board, that is requirements far all the improvements to be in a subdivision or on streets prior to ac- ceptance by the City. That is one of our many objections to this new ordinance which we are going over continuously in our Plan- ning Commission meetings. CITY PLANNER WANNER reported on the meeting he attended, at the invitation of Dr. Miller, Planning Director, of Planners in the area with respect to small boat harbors. The Planning Commission is to discuss, on April 9th, the final arguments for the map which would indicate the proposed development of our bay front and has included a proposal for a small boat harbor jointly between the cities of National City and Chula Vista. The matter has been referred to in the press recently as not acceptable any longer in Chula Vista. In order to properly indicate to the Planning Commission and Council whether or not we should show such a joint small boat harbor on the map, he drafted a letter to the City Council of Chula Vista in an attempt to settle the matter as to whether or not Chula Vista is agreeable to a joint project in that area. The Council of Chula Vista meets tonight and it is hoped that some official response will be received which will clarify the situation. Moved by Heck, seconded by Fessman, that the meeting be closed. Carried, all the Council present voting aye. Meeting closed at 3:25 P.M. VICE MAYOR, CITY OF NATIONAL CIT�L CALIFORNIA ATTEST: CITY CLERK
