1962, regarding a red zone in front of the home of Judge O'Reilly, on Grand
Avenue.

who stated he had no objection to the placinLl of the red zone as recommended by
the Traffic Co:n:nittee.

resolution ':'as introduced. Resolution No. 1076-
07 , a resolution establishing
a no parking zone on Grand Avenue.
16. ilayor Davidson opened the discussion regarding procedure on incoming
co urunications addressed to the City Council.
layor Davidson explained the present problem regarding a letter addressed to the
ity Uouncii which was sent out to an advisory board prior to being consider-
ed by the City Council. He continued that any :nail addressed to the Cii,
Council should go to the City Council before being referred for action by some
other agency.
Councilman stiller stated -shat he disagreed that he liked how the present system
was being opera.ed and he wanted it continued and also correriended the City clerk
for his present system of sending out the necessary copies of letters for
Council's consideration.
Councilwoman McNeil agreed with Councilman iIiller that the present system should
be continued.
Councilman Graves agreed that the present method of handling communications
snould be continued and also that some letter should not be read 'a Public Hear-
ing, particularly letters like the subject one, which is in part obscene.
Councilman Shipsey agreed that no change should be :Wade in the procedure, ex-
cept in zne present instance. He believed that the action of sending a copy of
this letter to the Police Advisory Board without first going to the City
Council was perhaps a poor decision by the Staff M tubers involved and should '
not be done again.
Councilman Graves, suggest -.d at this time that possibly a Council Committee should
be appointed to study recommended action on communications not going to the
City Council but that only the final report be presented to the City Council
for their consideration which might help expedite Council meetings.
The City Council discussed various methods of speeding up action at City Council
meetings.
Mavor Davidson appointed Councilman Graves and Councilman Miller to act as a
Council Committee to investigate ways and :Weans of expediting Council meetings and
Council communications.

Highlands Inc., to the City for. future wridenin on Johnson Avenue. a part of
' the acce.stance of Tract Nc. 212, and a Deed of Easement for a se:•rer line also
oart of Tract No. 212.
15. On a motion of Councilman Graves, seconded by Councilman :tiller, the m ayor was
authorized to accept on behalf of the City and recore a covenant from the Stand-
ard Oil Company, guaranteeing future widening, on Monterey Street.
20. At this time the City Council, at the request of Councilman :'Miller, reviewed
a portion of the sign ordinance, specifically Section 3700.5b and 3700.9.
Councilman '-tiller stated that this matter was being brought to the Cot:.ncil's
attention at the reouest of 1,1r. John Freemen of Freeman Sign Service, as he be-
lieved that the present regulation cause a certain hard::zip on applicants.
-1r. Freeman appeared before the City Council stating that in several instances
he has been required to nct only apply for a sign permit but also a variance
when a sign is larger than that allowed by the C: -de. This happens particularly
when signs are placed in lots for sale of real estate, not for individual lots,
but for large areas such as subdivisions and believed that some relief should
be given to rake a :Wore workable system for both the sign painter•ana the City
personnel and urged that the City Council consider adopting the same standards
for sale of real estate that the ';ounty requires because he believed the
County requirements are fair and just tc both the property owner and the City.
He also asked the City Council to consider different standards for different
1 uses.
After discussion by the City Council, the Plannin; Director and the City Attorney
were requested to study the County sign ordinance on this :natter and make a re-
co- mnendation to the City Council if it were adaptable for the City.
On a motion of Councilman :Miller, seconded by Councilman ihi:) y, that the
City Attorney and the amity Planning Director meet with o reeman and go
over this real estate sign problem with him.
21. Communication from the Nebraska ands, Inc., requesting permission to build over
the present easement located between Block 34 and 35 of Block "A ", Tract No.
20n.
D. F. Romero, City Engineer, explained the request of the Nebraska Land, Inc., as
follows:
The subdivision as originally developed, anticipated a number of individual
apartment sites on Laurel Lane. However, the applicant now wishes to construct
one large apartment over several lots which would involve construction of a
floor slab over the strom drain easenent. The applicant requests permission
I
o build over this easement and agreas to whatever covenant the City -light
require.
i•1r. Romero explained that it is quite unlikely that the City will ever need to
replace the storm drain under the building. Therefore, if the property owner
:could be will to bear all e: -.traordinary costs caused by the building construc-
tion, he could see no serious objection.
W. 1.1. Houser, City Attorney, agreed with the City Engineer's suggestion that a
covenant be filed b,r the property owner to protect the City's interest in case
the drainage should fail.
On motion of Councilman G-ravcs, seconded by Councilman 1�1_ller, that the re-
quest of the ebraska Lands, Inc. be granted subject to the filing of a covenant
approved by the City Engineer.
22. The City Engineer presented the following; report on the formation of a proposed
sewer and :,rater district in the Elks Lane, South Higuera and Prado Road area.
"The EngineerinE Department is now setting up the district boundaries and pre-
liminary assessment spread for a proposed sewer and water assessment district
which will include Elks Lane, South Higuera Street, and Fradc Road. In order
to arrive at preliminary costs, we :,rust have certain basic Council decisions
re�a_rding degree of City participation in the assessment district as follows:
1. ::rill the City e:ctend the :,rater main from the nearest point of ade-
cuate service (the intersection of South Street and Higuera Street),
to the northerly limit of the assessment district? This will involve
the construction of a 12" main for an approximate cost of 40,000.00
2. Mill the City advance funds to pay the assess.ent of those properties
now lying outside the City limits, but adjacent to the ,roposed im-
provements and benefiting by them? In the past, the City has advanced
these funds and been repaid as the properties annexed to the City and
used the facility. However, as a practical matter, it is unlike.!y that
the City.•rill recover all of tiie money advanceu.
If the past policy is followed, cost to the City for advance on the
water installation will be $55,000.00 and $10,000.00 on sewer in-
stallation.
3. Since score of the properties in the proposed district are already
served by an inadequate water main, will the City absorb the cost of
the proposed adecuate main in front of these properties, or will these
properties be expected to pay the full cost?
4. Will properties which now ha -:e an inadequate water service be ex-
pected to pay for a replacement water service?
5. Shall sewer laterals be provided and included in the assessment?
6. Will the City pay for the difference in cost between that sewer
line size needed by properties within the district (91t), and that sewer
line size actually to be installed (24 ")? If the City assumes this e:c-
cess capacity cost, the expense will be approximately $90,000.00.
7. Does the City Council wish to hire a consultant to design the pro-
ject or shall I have one additional man for a six month period to com-
plete the •work with ray own engineerir.g forces?
With this basic information we can complete the preliminary assessment spread
and notify the property owners of probable cost of t:e improvement, thus en-
abling the district to proceed with construction durinE the su er of 1963."
D. Romero, City Engineer, then presented naps shcwinC preliminary assessment
spreads and areas to be included in the proposed district.
?,1r. Romero also explained various methods of servicing property in this area
frith both sewer and water facilities.
The City Council discussed the best approach to providin, the subject area with
sewer and water and whether it should he put in under the assess:ent procedure or
under the new proposed utility extension ordinance being considered by the Council.
D. F. iomero, City engineer, asked the City Council what he should do at this
time; should he proceed ,:ith only the information of the sewer district or both the
sewer and water district.
Mayor Davidson suggested that nothing be done at this tims or until the Council '
has had an opportunity to study the effects of the new ordinance being con-
sidered at this time.
Mr. Romero also a::ked if no assessment district is formed at thistime, then in
plannint the sewer :Hain along South Higuera Street, should he consider placing
sewer wyes for each property at this tine.
The City Council indicated that Vrres she ld be placed at this time.
On a :notion of Co hci lman `-Tiller, seconded by Counci Lman Chi psey, that the City
Council table the assessment district proposal for four (Q mnnths or the first
meet.1_r.;- in nine, 1963. :lotion carried.
