Mayor Dunin declared the public hearing open.

industrial discharge user because all of his hazardous wastes are removed by private means and therefore

the users. He also spoke against the proposed fees.

Arnold Jonas. Community Development Director, reviewed the agenda report with the recommendation that
Council adopt the resolution which would deny the appeal subject to the recommended findings in the report.
He stated that the report concluded,based on the ARC's direction,city design guidelines and policies,and on
staffs analysis, the proposed office building was 1) incompatible with the neighborhood's prevailing
architectural character, 2) inconsistent with city policies to preserve the residential character of transitional
office/residential zones;and 3) set an undesirable design precedent for the neighborhood.
Mike Underwood. Vice Chairman of the Architectural Review Commission, spoke in support of the

City Council Minutes Page 5
Tuesday,May 21, 1991 -7:00 p.m.
Barry Williams, architect, stated he had reviewed previous tapes by the various advisory bodies which gave
approval of the schematic plan and felt that it would be very unfair at this point to be denied after the applicant
had met all the conditions and requirements.
Winnifred Alexander spoke in support of the office complex and felt that the neighborhood is in a transitional
stage,moving from residential to office,which was appropriate and therefore the appeal should be upheld.
Mavor Ounin declared the public hearing closed.

BUSINESS ITEMS
S. MINOR ANNEXATION POLICY (File No.463)
Council considered a new policy regarding the processing of general plan amendment requests for properties
located outside the City limits during the general plan update.
Arnold Jonas. Community Development Director, reviewed the agenda report with the recommendation that
Council adopt a resolution, labeled Exhibit A in the packet, which would allow processing of general plan
amendments associated with annexations within the urban reserve,except for identified major expansion areas,
prior to the Land Use Element update.
Mayor Dunin asked for public comment.
Ned Roeoway. 1163 Main Street, Morro Bay, supported the resolution and urged that the Broad Street
annexation be included.
Evie Hill,felt that it would be unwise to amend the annexation policy with the possible exception of the Broad
Street property.
Allen Settle.spoke against amending the annexation policy and felt that the existing policy should be retained.
Carla Sandersrepresenting the Citizens Alliance Group,was opposed to the amendment of the policy until
additional water resources are available.

Resolution A
Roy Hang.565 Lawrence Drive, spoke in support of leaving the annexation policy as is.
John French.4360 Sunflower,questioned the time frame as to when the LUE would be completed. He requested
an accounting of what it has cost to date for having the LUE review and felt that until those costs could be
identified and a time frame established,it is unfair to hold any annexations until the LUE was completed.
John Dunn. City Administrative Officer, stated that the staff was looking at ways of speeding up the LUE
process and that would be coming to the Council shortly.
CI - 5
City Council Minutes Page 6
Tuesday,May 21, 1991 -7:00 p.m.
Councilwoman Pinard raised the issue that the Telegram-Tribune had just indicated to staff today that they
were no longer interested in the Cooperage property near The Graduate which, in her opinion, was what
precipitated the request for the annexation policy change and felt that it may not be necessary as originally
thought.
Upon question,Arnold Jonas explained that previous Council action directed staff to proceed with the Broad
Street annexation and, unless directed otherwise, staff will proceed along those lines. Resolution A would
accommodate this and several other areas as well. In all cases, each area would have to be individually
reviewed and approved by the Council.
Councilwoman Rapper commented that the City can't annex unless resources are available so the issue of
sufficient resources is moot. She considers the areas in the City's urban reserve as the eventual area of the
City and didn't see that changing She would like concensus from the Council to that effect. She further stated
that is what the Open Space Element is being based upon.
Councilman Roalman stated that he had been the one who had originally suggested annexing the Broad Street
property as it made sense that if you provided City services that the City should also have benefit of the sales
tax that it is currently losing to the County. He did not wish, however, to completely revise the annexation
policy.
Councilman Reiss stated.he could support the staff recommendation and wished to move ahead with the LUE
as quickly as possible and could therefore support Resolution A.
Councilwoman Pinard again stated that she could only support the Broad Street area at this time.
After discussion, moved by Rapp/Reiss to adopt Resolution No. 6983 (Resolution B) (3,2 Councilmembers
Pinard and Roalman voting no)to allow processing of general plan amendment requests for properties located
outside of City limits.
6. PARKING STRUCTURE REPAIR PROJECT (File No.91-10)
Council considered plans and specifications for crack repair for the Palm Street and Marsh Street parking
structures; estimated to cost$42,000 (continued from 3/19/91 and 5/7/91).
Dave Romero.Public Works Director,reviewed the staff report with the recommendation that Council approve
the plans and specs for the clack repair and authorize solicitation of bids and award a contract if the lowest
responsible bid is within the engineer's estimate.
Councilman Reiss was concerned that the parking structures were experiencing such failure,even if it wasn't
structural failure,this early and that maybe an impartial analysis by another engineer should be conducted to
identify whether the previous analysis of the failures or clacks was adequate. He also questioned whether or
not the contractor should be liable for a portion of this.
Mayor Dunin asked for public comment.
Roy Han ff felt that it was a waste of taxpayer's money and did not support the recommended action.
Pete Evans also supported Councilman Reiss's concerns and urged against the approval.
Moved by Rapper/Roalman to approve the plans and specifications for the clack repair project,authorize staff
to solicit bids,and authorize the CAO to award contract to the lowest responsible bidder within the engineer's
estimate. Motion failed (2-3,Councilmembers Pinard. RapMa,and Reiss voting no).
Moved by Reiss/Rapp to direct staff to obtain an independent analysis to review whether existing engineering
analysis is adequate Motion carried (3-2,Councilwoman Pinard and Mayor Dunin voting no).

S. CITY ELECTION CAMPAIGN REGULATIONS (File No.326)

ordinance to print amending the City's Election Regulations as recommended in the staff report which included
two primary changes from the last meeting which were to leave the$100 contribution per person and to include
a$100 late filing fee of disclosure statements.
Mayor Dunin left the meeting. Vice Mayor Roalman presiding.
Pete Evans spoke in support of retaining the original language under criminal misdemeanor actions and civil
actions which provided that the City Attorney shall respond within 10 days,rather than the proposed 40 days,
after receipt of the request indicating whether or not he/she intends to file a civil action. He further urged to
retain the language that the City Attorney file*suit within 30 days rather than 40 days as is currently being
proposed. He also suggested some minor grammatical word changes.
Mayor Dunin returned to the dais.
