COUNCIL CHAMBERS, CITY HALL, 990 PALM STREET Pledge Roll Call Councilmembers PRESENT: Alan Bond, Ron Dunin, Gerald Munger and Mayor Lynn Cooper ABSENT: Melanie Billig City Staff PRESENT: Lee Walton, Administrative Officer; George Thacher, City Attorney; Pam Voges, Recording Secretary; Geoff Grote, Legal Assistant; D.F. Romero, Public Services Director 1. Council considered dividing the Wastewater Treatment Plant into two phases: Phase 1 to upgrade and correct plant deficiencies, and Phase 2 for advanced secondary treatment. D.F. Romero, Public Services Director, explained that the Water Quality Control Board staff had become increasingly concerned with the ever increasing instances of bypass of raw or partially treated sewage to San Luis Obispo Creek during storms and was becoming more insistent that steps be taken to correct this bypass. He. therefore recommended that it would be desirable to construct the treatment plant improvement project in two phases. The first phase would upgrade and correct current plant deficiencies.and eliminate bypass to the creek. The second phase would deal with advanced secondary treatment which may or may not be approved by EPA. The split phase in the project would permit the most critical work to the plant to proceed at an early date, possibly before winter. The first phase would cost $2.8 million compared to a construction cost estimate for the entire project - of $6.7 million. On the motion of Councilman Munger, seconded by Councilman Dunin, to authorize staff to proceed with the application for split phasing the project. Motion carried, all ayes, Councilwoman Billig absent. 2. Amendment to Consulting Services Agreement with Richard B. Taylor. D.F.

On motion of Councilman Dunin, seconded by Councilman Munger, the following resolution was introduced: Resolution No. 4170 (1980 Series), a resolution of the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo adopting amendment no. 1 to consulting services agreement for preparation of working drawings and specifi- cations for Mission Plaza extension.

Rental Housing Mediation Board Geoff Grote, Legal Assistant, submitted a report to the Council on the history and possible questions for Council to consider regarding a Rental Housing Mediation Board. Jackie Megow, Human Relations Commission Associate, submitted report dated May 30, 1980 from the Human Relations Commission opposing the proposed ordinance to establish a Rental Housing Mediation Board. They listed seven major concerns and recommended that before the City Council established a mediation board, that data first be collected to show appropriate rationale for such. Collection of data would provide a statistical data build -up to see the frequency with which people would be willing to get involved with a formal mediation process and board. The HRC would be willing to conduct a simple survey of its grievance calls for a six month period and report back to the City Council its findings and to make further recommendation of the necessity of the RHMB.

Councilman Munger stated he could support a contrbution of $500 towards this event but would like to see an exchange of comparable "work - time" by_the'Boy Scouts on community projects. On motion of Councilman Munger, seconded by Councilman Bond, the following resolution was introduced: Resolution No. 4181 (1980 Series), a resolution between the City and the Boy Scouts of America to contribute $500.00 to the Boy Scouts from the Promotional Coordinating Committee's contingency account in exchange for comparable "work- time" by the Boy Scouts on community projects.

Mass Transportation Committee Minutes of May 14, 1980 D.F. Romero, Public Services Director, submitted the minutes from the Mass Transportation Committee Meeting of May. 14, 1980 and explained the MTC had recommended five modifications to the fares, service and advertising policy _.:. in order to reduce the operating cost.of the system. He stated. it was his opinion that the operating.subsidy was becoming excessive and eventually would threaten all of the gasoline sales.tax funds and require huge expenditures from the general fund and was therefore not in agreement with the recommendations of the MTC. He recommended Council approve recommendations 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7b and 8 as stated below noting that even if all of these recommendations were put into effect, the subsidy per passenger would still exceed, by more than twice, the actual fare charged: 1) Increase fare to 50o, and daily-pass to $1.00 (43% increase). Sylvia Drucker, representing the Planning Commission and a member on the MTC, stated she opposed the fare increase. She explained that the Planning Commission had been studying the Circulation Element and as a part of it the "Goals State- ment". The goals statement urged the City to encourage reduced use of the auto- mobile and urged heavier use of the bus system as the bus system was more energy efficient. It was the Planning Commission's desire to promote the bus system and encourage increased.ridership. .She therefore was opposed to any.fare increase. 2) Increase senior pass and.mid -day pass to $3.50 /mo. (40% increase) 3) Increase monthly pass to $18.00 /mo. (44% increase) 4) Eliminate 20% discount on volume purchase of tokens. 5) Eliminate buss service on Thanksgiving and Christmas. 6) Eliminate Route 1 service on Saturdays (same as current Sunday operation). (This would provide 1 hour service to all areas of the city.) 7a) Eliminate Sunday bus service (we now serve approximately 200 riders, of 7b) whom approximately 100 pay a separate fare on Sundays). Reduce Sunday service to one bus. (One bus would alternate between routes 2 and 3, thus providing 2 hour service to all areas of the city.) 8) Allow advertising on inside of bus. Sylvia Drucker, representing the Planning Commission and a member on the MTC, stated she opposed the fare increase. She explained that the Planning Commission had been studying the Circulation Element and as a part of it the "Goals State- ment". The goals statement urged the City to encourage reduced use of the auto- mobile and urged heavier use of the bus system as the bus system was more energy efficient. It was the Planning Commission's desire to promote the bus system and encourage increased.ridership. .She therefore was opposed to any.fare increase. City Council Minutes June 3, 1980 - 4:00 p.m. Page 4 Helen Karloeich strongly opposed the fare increase. She stated she felt it was highly unfair, that the City could not - expect increased ridership but rather lose current riders if this change were effected. She felt the City should concentrate on promoting the bus system which she felt was not being done. Mayor Cooper stated he favored the increase as it was the automobile driver with the gasoline taxes who were subsidizing the bus system and with inflation that bus system now cost the City $223,000.00 per year which represents an operating deficit from $63,000 in 1974/75 to $223,000 in 1979. It was explained that the total operating cost was paid approximately 1/2 from gasoline taxes, 1/4 from the fare box and 1/4 out of the City.'s general fund. Councilman Bond felt the City's bus system was a good system and could not support a fare increase. He did feel the system catered too much towards students and would like to see bus schedules arranged to encourage the work segment of the population to use it. As it'is now, workers are forced to be 20 minutes early or 20 minutes late to work. Councilman Munger stated he could support the fare increase. He felt the cost factor had increased dramatically and needed to be offset. He was concerned with the mid -day pass and seniors pass and would support leaving them at their present rate. Councilman Dunin stated he could not support the rate increase. He would like to see the Mass Transportation Committee and Promotional Coordinating Committee work together in an effort for heavier promotion of the bus system. He felt that with increased ridership this would help the fares and decrease use of the automobile. Sylvia Drucker stated other reasons the Planning Commission could not support the fare increase were: 1) anyone paying 50(, to come into town would probably be paying 50o for a return trip; therefore the fare was being raised to $1.00; 2) felt the City should promote day users,. such .as. -housewives:for.increased ridership; & 3) reduced automibles would result in reduced road maintenance and ultimately fewer street widenings. Helen Karloeich again urged.the Council not to raise the fares. She suggested that the Coastal School District get together with the City and set up schedules that would help the students and work users. On motion of Councilman Bond, seconded by Councilman Dunin, that'Item 1, fare increase remain the same. Motion lost on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Bond and Dunin NOES: Councilman Munger and Mayor Cooper ABSENT: Councilwoman Billig NOTE: A tie vote on this issue means.the fares would remain at 355. On motion of Councilman Bond, seconded by Councilman Dunin, that the senior pass and mid -day pass remain the same. Motion lost on the following roll'call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Bond and Dunin NOES: Councilman Munger and Mayor Cooper ABSENT: Councilwoman Billig NOTE: A tie vote on this issue means the fares would remain the same.
