At this time the City Council.held a public hearing -on Resolution:No« 1001, a Resolution of intention to abandon.portions:of Wilson Street and Champlin Avenue. t, Mayor Davidson declared the public hearing open on the intention to abandon portions of these streets... Mayor Davidson asked how the City Council could require the installation of curbs; gutters and sidewalks along Lot 1,.Block 1,, and-Lot 16,.Block 11, of the Phillip's addition as a condition of abandonment. City Attorney.Houser.stated that he recommended that.'the City.Counci:l.defer. final action on.the abandonment of these streets until an agreement is-reached with the property owners that they would install curbs, gutters and sidewalks on property adjacent to the. streets being abandoned.. The City Council_ 'discussed ways and means of requiring curbs, gutters,and sidewalks to.be placed along Wilson and Grove Streets. October 15, 1962 Councilman Graves.'stated that-he did not.believe,it would be fair to require in- .stallation of improvements by the property owners along Wilson Street as they would.-receive little if any benefit', but that he would recommend curb, gutter and sidewalk installatioaalong Grove Street,-along Lot 1, Block 1. Mr. Ted Maino stated that he was willing and was planning on placing curbs, gutters -'and sidewalks along Grove Street adjacent to Lot I.-Block 1 and on that portion of Wilson Street being abandoned. He questioned the need for the 20 foot easement for water lines as he believes that a 10 foot easement would.be adequate.. He also suggested that the City Council not require curbs, gutters and sidewalks in front - of property on Lot 16,-Block 11 as he did not believe that these property owners would receive any.benefit from the abandonment. Price Thompson, Water Superintendent, stated that he needed a 20 foot easement for the water line -in case -of.necessity to repair or replace portions of the -line. On motion of Councilman Graves, seconded by Councilman Shipsey, that Wilson and Champlin be abandoned .on. condition that a covenant be-.filed with the.City guaranteeing the installation of!.curbs, gutters and sidewalks along Grove Street and be. completed. in :twelve (12). months. . Motion carried.. 12. At this time the.City Council.held.a•.public hearing on Resolution No. 1000, a Resolution of intention .to.abandon.a.portion.of Palm Street. Mayor Davidson declared the public hearing open. The.City Clerk, read a letter from.Pacific.Gas.& Electric. Company-requesting their poles,: etc.; to.be.protected if-the City abandons any portion of the street. William Houser, City Attorney, presented the following opinion on the abandonment of Palm Street: "The Conditions which the Planning Commission recommended and the City Council ' concurred at their September 17, 1962 meeting are as follows: L That there.be an exchange.of.land considered so.that this City may ac- quire that portion of private property necessary for the .widening of Monterey Street in the location of the Ranchotel. 2. That the City reserve the.right•to determine the ingress and egress to the Ranchotel property with regard to both Grand Avenue and Monterey Street. 3. That all utilities lying within the abandoned area, as well as the curb, gutter and sidewalks, be moved.-to the satisfaction of the utility.company of the City at the expense of the developer of the property. PROBLEMS "On Item #1, the problem is: for what length of time should the property owner be entitled to retain the use of the property .being conveyed.to the City•inasmuch as I understand that part of the restaurant-structure-is located on the parcel to be conveyed to the City.. Suggestion:- Have:the owner execute a deed to the City, to- gether with'a covenant running with the land, providing that the improvements would be removed by the owner within period'.of time OR, as.•an alternate, improvement: will be removed by the owner within 120 days after written notice from the City and not to exceed three (3) .years, and if the owner should fail •to.do_so, the City may remove and'.make the cost.-thereof a lien on the property.• ' "Item 2 would be resolved at the time of the relocation of the curb, gutter and sidewalks. "The problem with Item #3 is the time limit.within which to relocate the utilities and the 'curb, gutter.and. sidewalks: . "There are-two methods of handling these problems.: The first would be that the Council declare the.abandoament of this portion of Palm Street subject to compliance with items 1, 2 and 3. The problem would be the enforcement of these conditions if the property owner failed to perform. .. J "As an alternate, the Council could informally determine that they-are willing to abandon upon execution of a deed and covenant to comply with Item 1 and completion of the relocation of the utilities and improvements required in Item 3 and on that basis, continue the hearing to a future date certain when the work has been completed. "The Second alternative would provide more .protection-for . the City inas- much as there would be noquestion of street abandonment until the work has been completed." John Sargant objected to the abandonment of Palm Street as he-,believes that the parking areas that would be abandoned will be needed for use of-the patrons of the Veteran 's Building. David Romero, City Engineer; stated that no parking places would be lost as the parking would still be allowed along the curb at the new street line. Frank Funk appeared.before the City Council objecting to the abandonment of any portion of Palm Street as he believes that the City.some. day would need Palm Street to complete a one -way street couplet with Monterey Street and further stated that once this street is abandoned and closed it would be im- possible to get it back by the City if it were needed for street purposes. C1611 Whelchel, Planning Commissioner, stated that he.was one.of.:the members of the Commission who opposed the abandonment of Palm Street when•.it was be- fore the City Planning Commission. John Badgley, architect, appeared before the City Council on behalf of the property owner, William 0. Hall, requesting abandonment of Palm.Street in front of the Ranchotel property. He listed the following factors.for the Council's consideration: 1. Street traffic pattern will be clarified and greater safety will result by the simplification of a now poorly defined major City intersection. 2. Taxable City property will be increased and enhanced by the addition a of property - improvement to serve a recognizable need for commercial hotel facilities. 3. The above property will be used for landscaping hotel appearance and additional off -site parking. On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Shipsev, it is the in- tention of the City Council to abandon this portion of -Palm Street subject to conditions 1, 2 and 3 of.the City Attorney's opinion. Motion carried. Public hearing continued to January 21, 1963 at 8:30 P.M. 13. At this time the City Council - held a public hearing on-the recommendation of the Planning Commission to amend the Municipal Code by adding provisions for regulations governing Planned Development Districts.. The Mayor declared the public hearing open. City -Clerk Fitzpatrick reported to.the City Council that since the last meet- ing, he had mailed a copy of the proposed Ordinance to all-subdividers and financial institutions in the City. Morgan Flagg appeared before the City Council and stated that.he agreed with the purpose of the proposed City Ordinance as presented to the City Council by the Planning Commission. He further stated that he had seen this.type of Ordi- nance used in other communities to good purpose;.but he stated that he objected to Section 9200.18.3(1), which grants the - authority to the Planning Commission or City Council-to zone specific properties to PD classification which is un- fair to the property owners as it would require them to comply with the pro- visions of the Code and.present an application for PD with-supporting data prior to the time the property might be ready for development. October 15, 1962 William Houser, City Attorney,,explained that.if. the Planning - Commission or City Council desired, they could rezone any property to Planned .Development and in so doing, would'require the"properiy owner to comply.with the provisions regarding the application. Mr. Houser also explained.that this does not change the present procedure as the Planning Commission or City Council can, by holding the necessary hearing, rezone any property in the City. The new procedure proposed would allow the property owner the opportunity.to appear before the Planning, Commission and Council with supporting information.for or, against the.Planned Development Classi- fication. Councilman Miller stated that he did not object'to,_the basic,idea of PD zoning, by which a' property owner could. request this.zone,.but he did object to the provision which granted the authority to the Planning C' #ssion and City Council to zone private property and then require the property owner to justify or object to this classification. Councilman Graves stated that he believed the property owner should be required to substantiate a request for PD zone, if he had requested it, but he did not agree that if'this cladsification was placed on the property by the City Council or Planning Commission, the property owner should be required to submit supporting data. Mayor Davidson stated that he understood this prop osed.Ordinance to be a permissive one which would allow developers to take advantage of.new techniques and proposals to make better use of their land. Ted Maino objected to Section 9200.18.4 (B) which limie i property owner to six (6) months time to submit plans for development after classification by the City Council or Planning Commission and if not accomplished.:by the .owner within that time the City Council or'Planning Commission could rezone the property for a higher use. -He stated that this was an unfair position as no one'in their right mind would buy a,parcel of land for future, development with thi.possibility that if he does not comply in six (6Y months, the zone could,be. changed to some higher classification. William Houser, City Attorney, again explained the difference in_t he new proposal for Planned Development District and the present method of rezoning property under ' the Municipal Code, Morzan Flagg stated that instead of making property development more difficult, the City should.be making laws that would make property`development more flexible and more up -to -date to take advantage of current - trends: Councilman Miller stated that he.objected to the portion of the PlannedDevelopment Ordinance which allowed the Planning Commission and City Council to•iaitiate planned development classifications, which gives the City one more way to rezone property and was unfair to.property'owners. Councilman Shinsey stated that he agreed with Councilman Miller and objected to allowing the Planning Commission or City Council to initiate Planned Development Classifications on property and only allow the..owner six (6) months to comply with the zoning. Clell Whelchel,- Planning Commissioner, explained'to the Council the advantage in adopting the Planned Development Ordinance which, he believed, was an advantage to developers of land is the City. Hobert Sears, Vice - President of Central Savings, asked the Council to eliminate Section 9200.18.4(b) from the Ordinance,if it is to be adopted. Mayor Davidson stated that he could see where this Ordinance was good and useful but ' agreed that mandatory provisions should be eliminated. E. Arnett, realtor, asked for clarification and interpretation of Section 9200.18.3 (Al) . William Houser, City Attorney, explained the provisions of this section.to Mr. Arnett.' Mr. Broadbent, realtoi,'stated that he believed that the voluntary provisions of this Ordinance were good but that all mandatory provisions based on rezoning by the City Council and Planning Commission should be eliminated. Carlos Moerman objected to the word "design" in Section'9200.18.10(10) as he does not believe that the Planning Commission or the City Council should get into the field of aesthetics and suggested that the same wording as used in Section 9200.18.7(6) be used. Jean Abraham, Planning and Building Director, stated as follows: 'If Section 9200.18.4 were amended, it would serve no particular purpose and should be completely removed to eliminate confusion. On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Shipsey, that the Ordinance be referred to the City Attorney for a re -draft deletiiig'Sections 9200.18:41, 9200.18.3(A1)-and any other provisions which would allow the Planning Commission and /or City Council to initiate PD zoning. Motion carried. Ordinance to be considered by the City Council at the November 5, 1962 meeting. 14. Price Thompson, Water Superintendent, brought to the City Council's attention the matter of the Santa Margarita permit which allows the City to.put the water to beneficial use and that the'City Council, at this time, should apply for extension of time to perfect their permit or to apply for theii license at this time. Mr. Thompson recommended that the City apply for an additional length of time for one (1) year on a temporary permit'before applying for a permanent license. ' On motion of Councilman Graves, seconded by Councilman Miller, Mr..Thompson was authorized to prepare application for one (1) year extension. 15. Mr. Thompson, Water Superintendent, reported to the City Council that he still does not have the figures in final form of the request of Cal Poly to serve Whale Rock water to the college and asked Council's permission, for additional time to type up the report and mail it to the City Council as soon as it is ready, for their consideration. 16. Communication from the Coachman Motel, 1001 Olive Street, protesting the granting of an individual sign directing traffic to the Homestead'Motel (refer to Traffic Committee Report 62- 10 -8C). 17. Traffic Committee Report of October 4, 1962. 62- 10 -6C. In regard to the petition from several residents and property owners in the vicinity of Pacific Street lying between Osos and Santa Rosa Streets, the Traffic Committee feels that a two -hour time limit from 9:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. would not be out of line if this is the wish of'those living and /or work- ing in the area and so recommends. It is felt, however, that the all night parking prohibition is unnecessary at this time, and "it is recommended that the signs contain no restriction during the evening hours. On motion of Councilman Graves, seconded by Councilman ShipseL the following Resolution was introduced: RESOLUTION NO. 1018 (1962 Series) "A Resolution establishing a two -hour parking street on a portion of Pacific Street." Passed and adopted by the following roll call vote: AYES: Miss Margaret McNeil, R. L. Graves, Jr., Donald Q. Miller, Gerald W. Shipsey, Clay P. Davidson NOES: None ABSENT: None 62- 10 =7C. In regard to the Council's request that we contact the Ritz Motel, we did discuss the matter in some detail with the representative who appeared at the Council meeting last Monday evening: We suggested one or two physical improvements, but the manager objected because he did not feel the owners would be agreeable to the expense. We said that, if he wishes to erect a sign on his property discouraging turn around movements within his property, he could make application to the Planning Commission. We indicated that since his property was open for business to the general public, we could not cite October 15, 1962 1 1 motorists•who` used the property fora turn around. Other methods'-of solving his problem were left with the suggestion -that-he have•thel safety engineers from his insurance company contact our engineers and attempt to work our recommendations for improvement. On the problem of motorists entering the freeway in a north bound direction on Monterey, the City Engineer was asked to contact the Division of Highways to see if they would erect a larger sign indicating the entrance to the 101 freeway. Report was accepted by the City Council. 62- 10 -8C. The.Traffic Committee'met with the manager of the Homestead Motel who appeared at the.Council meeting last Monday to discuss the requested motel direction al sign with her. At first, it was suggested that a motel sign-be erected with arrows pointing both left and right off Osos Street, but this idea was rejected when the Police Chief suggested that this might encourage cars to make's left hand turn onto the freeway throwing them into direct conflict with cars leaving the free- way via-this off -ramp. The recommendation of the Traffic Committee continues to be against erecting a directional sign for an individual motel, but it is recommended that a street name sign be placed for Fig Street which may indicate the frontage road to motorists driving south on Osos Street. The City Engineer is also taking steps to-repaint the stop markings on the pavement and to slerilize the'strip be- tween Fig Street and the freeway right of way to prevent weeds. Report was accepted by the City - Council. 62- 10 -9T. At the request of the property owner at 1670-Phillips•Lane, we have looked at the parking conditions in his neighborhood. He has a problem when cars are parked too close to his driveway ramp, in which case he has difficulty negotiat- ing a turn when backing out of his driveway because of the cars parking directly across the street in front of a college fraternity house. It is felt that this situation would be .remedied by authorizing, a-red -zone 'for approximately one car space between the driveway ramps for 1670 and 1690 Phillips'Lane,-on`the north side of Phillips. On motion of Councilman.Shipsey, seconded -by'COuncilman Graves; the following Reso- lution was introduced: _ ' RESOLUTION NO 1019.(1962 Series) "A-Resolution- establishing a No Parking Zone on $hillips Lane." Passed and adopted on the following roll call vote: AYES: Miss Margaret.McNeil, R. L. Graves, Jr., Donald Q. Miller, Gerald W. Shipsey, Clay P. Davidson NOES: None ABSENT'- None 18.

David Romero, City Engineer, brought the following problem for Council's considerati, on the Madonna sewer lift station: Mr. Romero explained that several years ago the City.had accepted the Madonna Lift Station for maintenance, and with the continued development of themotel units and the Madonna Inn, the lift station had become totally inadequate, resulting in ex- cessive maintenance costs. He also pointed out.that on- .several occasions when the lift pumps had failed the Madonna Inn basement has been flooded with sewage. In attempting to provide a temporary correction to the problem, Mr. Romero had planned to install the Bullock Lift Station pumps and spend $500.00 which was in !!:.,; cluded in the 1962 -63 budget. However, this would not provide a long -range solut'�CY1. Mr. Madonna had phoned stating that he wished to correct the situation and would a Council determination as to the degree of participation he might expect from thy=.' City in enlarging the sewer lift station. Mr. Romero pointed out the various alternatives and complications of a revision of the present station, construction of an intermediate built -up station, or instal- lation of a package station which would serve all future needs of the Madonna Inn. Councilman Miller suggested, that the City participate to the extent of placing the Bullock pumps in this station and cooperate with Madonna up.to $500-.00 budgeted. City Engineer was instructed to proceed on the basis approved at budget time. 29.
