WRITTEN COMMUNICATIONS
City Manager Mack said he had sent Council a communication from Village
Merchants Association recommending to the City the site on Short Street behind
or next to the Social Security Office for development of prefabricated public
restrooms. He advised that Mr. Bob Gallop was their Chairman on the project.
The estimated cost would be $25,000.00 for the project and is to be raised by
the Association.
Council decided that no portion of parking fees collected would be
directed for payment of any part of the project. Council further discussed a
law being passed by the State Legislature that all facilities over 20,000 sq. ft.
would have complete restroom facilities for the public. Council directed Mr. Mack
I to express Council feelings regarding parking fees being used toward the project.
Mr. Mack further discussed with Council the location proposed for the restrooms.
He said plans for replacement of the Council Chambers and City Hall could include
permanent restroom facilities for public use.
Mayor Smith directed Mr. Mack to ask the Village Merchants Association
to consider portable restrooms instead, if health and sanitation regulations
permit them.
ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
Councilman Gallagher said the Planning Commission had approved the
development of Cross Street, and he was concerned that new construction does not
require installation of curbs and sidewalks.
Hr. Karp said the developer of Parcel Map #AG 77-105 was required to
construct curbs and gutters on Ide Street and to make an offer of dedication for
future extension of Cross Street, over two flag lots, created by the split. He
said to have required street extension without significant offsite drainage
improvements in that location would have created a drainage problem. Mr. Karp
indicated that only "reasonable" improvements and offers to dedicate could be
required with Parcel Maps, quoting Government Code Section 66411.1.
Inasmuch as the area westerly was zoned the same as this Parcel Map and
ultimate development would require a Tract Hap (which can be conditioned with
more significant offsite improvements, e.g. storm drain), the Planning Director
felt it was only necessary to condition the Parcel Hap AG 77-105 with only those
improvements which were necessary prerequisites to the orderly development of
the surrounding area, as per State law. These included local drainage control,
flag access to Ide and Cross Streets, and street improvements on Ide Street.
Now that the owner of the adjacent property is ready for development under the
Tract Map procedure, she has been required to construct extension of Cross Street
with two-thirds of a street width and offsite drainage improvements appropriate
to resolve local flooding. The remaining portion of the street section can be
accomplished within the previously required offer to dedicate adjacent to homes
built on Parcel Map #AG 77-105 through assessment district procedures if ordered
by the City Councilor petitioned by 60 percent of the property owners on the
block.
ADJOURNMENT TO CLOSED SESSION
Mayor Smith said the Council would adjourn to Closed Session, at 9:25 P.M.,
to discuss Personnel and Litigation.
RECONVENEMENT AND ADJOURNMENT
Immediately upon reconvening from Closed Session, Councilman Gallagher
moved, and Councilman Millis seconded a motion to adjourn. Upon vote of all
three Council Members present, meeting was adjourned at 10:15 P.M.
