He said that at the first reading of the Ordinance the Council indicated it wanted that zoning to be the same as on the existing County property. He said the County felt it was the same use, and so Staff made the zoning Commercial Use "C-2" because it allowed the type of office buildings and public uses in "C-2" property. However, he said, that was not the intent of the Counci 1. He said everywhere throughout/the Ordinance that indicates "C-2" rather than "A"(agriculture), it should be changed to "A."

He proposed a new expenditure item - $2000 for the Parks and Recreation Department to maintain the South Bank site. Mayor Mankins asked if Staff had looked at the costs of operating any departments in the City, and if they are recovering any costs. Mr. Mack said in the Community Development area, approximately 50 per cent is recovered. The Mayor said he was talking about user fees on services for individuals. Council agreed some of these costs should be recovered, and they decided to take up the issue before the budget study is completed. The Drainage Fund was examined. Mr. Karp said drainage fees are assessed on new development to correct drainage problems in the Fair Oaks area. He said the 1987/88 objective is to accumulate reserves for a Sports Complex bleeder line to the Arroyo Grande Creek. Finance Director David Bacon led the discussion of the Capital Improvement Fund. He referred to Interim Page 161, which he passed out to Council members. He said this is an attempt to portray where the monies are going in inter- fund transfers.

Mayor Mankins asked if a priority list had been set up, and Mr. Mack said he was meeting with the Advisory Board to discuss this. The Water Fund was considered.
