Series) An Ordinance Amending Section 9300.4 of the San Luis Obispo Code by'Adding Sub-
section 5 — Plan Lines of Foothill Blvd.
Mr. Ed emon, property owner, asked that in the future, if it %•could be possible, he be
notified when his property is effected by plans for future City development.. He stated
that was unfortunate, but he was required to'work out of town and hadn't read or heard
about the proposed plan line until this date. He asked the following questions: (1) Where
is widening of Foothill to begin? (2) 'That other narrow streets in town would be effected
by the plan line such as is proposed for Foothill? (3) i^That, if any, reimbursement formulz
had been devised for the property owners?
Mayor Lucksinger told Mr. Edgemon that he was very sorry that he hadn't been able to attend
the other meetings due to his being out of town, but that Mr. Romero would answer his ques-
tions at this time.
Mr. Timothy O'Reilly, Attorney, asked the City Council for the legal authority.for plan
lines and asked the City Attorney to cite such authority.
Mr. Houser, City Attorney, was requested to send Mr. O'Reilly the legal authority he request'E
Mr. Carr:suggested' that possibly the City could use the words "building line" instead of
plan line, in order to make it more palatable to the property.owners.
Mr. O'Reilly stated he believed the property owners objected to the plan lines as they
place a cloud on the property and are required to pay property taxes on land which legally
belongs to the City.

Blvd. was finally passed and adopted on motion of Nels beck, seconded by Kenneth W. Jones,

Report of the Traffic Committee:
57- 11 -1C: At the Council's request, the Traffic Committee has studied the feasibility of
installing parking meters on Morro between Marsh and Pacific and on Garden between Marsh
and Pacific. We have come to the conclusion that meters would be justified on Morro Street
but recommend that the green ten minute free parking zone alongside,., the Past Office be left
intact. It.is also recommended that the last two spaces on the easterly side of Morro at
the corner of Marsh be painted red to allow for turning movements. It is also suggested
that the two existing ten minute green zones directly in front of the Telegram - Tribune
building be changed to 12 minute parking meter zones. Otherwise, it is recommended that
two hour meters be installed in this block. It is estimated that 13 additional parking
meters will be needed.
Because of the mixed residential character of Garden Street, it is recommended that the
installation of parking meters be deferred at this time. However, we feel that parking
meters would be fully justified on Pacific Street between Chorro and Garden becuase of the
new bank, the existing office buildings and the fact that there are no residences in this
block. It is recommended that two hour meters be installed with the exception of the last
west bound space on the north side of Pacific at the corner of Garden. This was referred
back to the Traffic Committee for re- study.
57- 11 -2C: On the matter of the crosswalk at the corner of Chorro and Foothill., the Traffic
Committee feels that the present location of the crosswalk across Foothill just east of
Broad Street is the proper one and that any other cross walk on Foothill in this vicinity 4
be very dangerous since there would not be a suitable terminal point on the north side of
Foothill, but the present crosswalk terminates at one of the safter locations on that side
of the street. The recommendation of the Traffic Committee was approved on motion of
Kenneth 'd. Jones, seconded by Nels Beck.
