There being no further public discussion on the matter, Mayor Millis declared
the hearing closed. The Council discussed the matter at length, Mayor Millis
stated that although many pec,ple spoke in favor of the prezoning, they were all from

division of the "stem" properties and file such proposals with LAFCo by Ju."le 30,
1978, and that until and unless annexation of the e!ltirs balance of the "stem" to
the two cities is completed, no further annexation of this area on a piecemeal bas~s
will be allowed."
FURrHER DISCUSSION - SAN LUIS BAY PLANNING AREA - F'URTHER STUDY REQUESTED
Planning Director Castro again briefly reviewed a map showing the City's
proposed area of service and sphere of influence, as mandated by the State, Mayor
Millis stated his opinion that the plan would be better if it included the
properties fronting on Printz Road and delete the 47 ac.res next to Orchard Schc.~l,
stating that an indication of this latter acreage being within the future ser,i"~
area of the City may prejudice LAFCO in its consideration of this area" s anns"..',.j..cn
application.
Planning Commissioner Pearl Cole was present and stated her opinion that
the Orchard area was more logical for inclusion in the City's sphere of service
than the Printz Road area. Planning Director Castro stressad that the plan m~st
be submitted to the County by June 1st of this year, but that the Council can :::hange
the map now.""'.He:.suggested that lines be drawn to label "urban service" areas and
"urban reserve" areas, with the latter designation possibly being appropriate for
the area near Orchard School.
A motion by Councilman Pope, seccnded by Councilman de Leon was made and
withdrawn to keep the boundary lines as shown but draw a second line around the
47 acres designating it as future services. Planner Tom Sullivan suggested that
an item could be added to the list of concerns the City is submitting regarding
the Plan, with said addition stating that the Council takes no position on the 47
acre area proposed for annexation. As no definition for "future" was given, Mayor
Millis opposed the suggestion. After further Council discussion, it was generally
agreed that the matter be studied further and the staff was directed to draw up
some alternative boundaries with terminology to help the Council regarding the 47
acre area near the Orchard School.
MAYOR MILLIS EXCUSED HIMSELF FROM THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS DUE TO A POSSIBLE CONFLICT
OF INTERES.r IN THE FOLLOWING ITEM, AND IS NOW ABSENT. MAYOR PRO TEM GALLAGHER IS
NOW PRESIDING.
DISCUSSION RE. PROPOSED SCHOOL FACILITIES FEE ON NEW CONSTRUCTION--SUPPORT CONCEPT
Administrator Butch reviewed the progress of a suggestion made by the
Council in 1976 relating to their concern for the overcrowding of the schools,
which was that a fee be established on new construction to be used by schools for
facility expansion. Numerous meetings have been held since that time with repre-
sem:atives from the South County Cities, the School District and County concerning
the fee. A proposed ordinance eatablishing such fees has now been drawn up, which
the Council reviewed. It was suggested that the City Attorney meet with attorneys
from the other entities to review the ordinance and resolve any conflicts or,
problems. As presently proposed, the fee would be 1 % of the valuation on
residences only (i.e. 1800 sq. ft. home at $25.50 per sq. ft. = $45,900 value times
1% would equal a $459. fee to go toward school facilitiesl.
The Council discussed the proposed ordinance in depth, rece~.v~.ng some comment
from persons present in the audience. Planning Commissioner Cole voiced her opinion
that people moving here were being penalized for living here with these additional
costs added to housing. She pointed out that recent statistics for the City show
that the number of persons per dwelling was decreasing. Councilman Gallagher stated
that the last three bond issues for schools have failed and that schools are a
service that need to be paid for like any other service. Councilman Pope felt the
additional cost would make it even more difficult for young people to afford housing
in this area, since building permit fees alone now cost as much as a vacant lot used
to. Councilwoman Smith 5tated that if we did not have 50 much development, the
schools would not be overcrowded. She was assured that the ordinance could be
reviewed as often as the Council wishes when adopted~
After further Council discussion, a motion was made by Councilman de Lec.n,
seconded by Councilwoman Smith and carried, supporting the concept of a school
facilities fee"

DENY USE OJ! POLICE HOLDING CELLS BY COUNTY
The Council reviewed another report from Police Chief Clark regarding the
County's request to use the City's holding facili'oies to temporarily detain
juveniles until they can be transported to Santa Barbara. The r'eportstated that,
this would be an advantage to neighboring law enforcemen~ agencies, but would also
increase the responsibilities of the City's police personnel, with no compensation
or other advantage to the City. After Council discussion, a mo~ion was made by
Councilman Gallagher, seconded by Councilwoman Smith and unanimously carr,led, the
request by the County Probation Department to use the Arroyo Grande Police Dapoort-
ment's holding cells for temporary detainment of juvenile offenders, was deni','d,
DIRECT REVISIONS TO BUILDING PERMIT VALUATION CHARGES PER "WG. INDEX AVERAGE
The Council reviewed a report from Building Inspector Don Shetters regarding
!:he valuation charged on Building Permits. He stated that pre.sently $20" 00 per ~
square foot is charged on residential plans and $10,00 per sq, ft, on carport~,and
garages, Said charges have not been changed for three years. He outlined the, fe,ss
being charged by surrounding cities, which average out to $27.41 on residential units,.
He recommended the City's valuation be raised to the average shown in the Bui,lding
5t,andards, which is $25.50, and leave the valuations on garages or carports the same.
After Council diSCUSSion, a motion was made by Councilman Gallagher,
seconded by Councilman de Leon and unanimously carried, directing thao;; the residen-
tial valuation charge be taken from the Building Standards Index, taking the average
betwesn the high and low points of the index. Staff was also directed to automati-
cally review said charges every six months to keep the City current with building
valuations and just report to the Council when ~he valuations are changed,
