being given by the _School District would be liess._.'
12. That the.,City Council proceed with this street improvement during then,,.
1966/67..fiscal year.
That the School. District ,would give -the property-.,,;io:t4e., City in exchangp

Mr'. Romero stated that he had written to the Southeri`n_. fc..PomR,any. in -an, atte!npt -
to procure right of way land for street purposes on their property aaj4cent to San

sz
After discussion by the City Council, it was their common consent that the curbs
and gutters on the west side of San Luis Drive be placed on the railroad property
line so as to take less property from the School side of San Luis Drive.
Mr. Romero was requested to again contact the Southern Pacific`:C.o#'ahy1by phon . e- . and.----
the request of the meeting of July 5, 1966.

City Hall basement with food, radiological instruments, first aide supplies, etc,.
as requested by Cdr. Gullickson. Motion carried.
3. Communication from William H. and Rose McKeen requesting a variance on the size
of the sidewalk for their property on Laurel Lane lying between the Union Service
Station and the Laurel Lane Shopping Center,
Me Keens asked for a variance from an 11 foot width to a 6 foot width sidewedk.
*Mr. Romero, City Engineer, explained the sidewalk installation to date adjacent to
this property, that the property is zoned C -2 and that for this type of zoning wider
sidewalks than the 6 foot residential sidewalks are called for by City standards..
On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Gallagher, that a variance be
granted for an 8 foot integral sidewalk subject to being expanded to 11 foot width
when and if the property develops for business purposes. Motion carried.
4. At this time the City Council held a public hearing on the proposed 1966/67
budget for the City of San Luis Obispo.
Mayor Whelchel declared the public hearing open.
Mr. Richard Reppert, President of the City Employees' Association, appeared before
the City Council and read a prepared report with the following recommendations:
1: Having learned through our discussions with the Council and the Joint
Committee, that the Council strongly opposes even the "Conservative 5.6V raise for
certain of the supervisory positions, and realizing that the remaining supervisory
classes having had their raises cut drastically in 1965 -66, and draping to 14 -187,
behind with a 2.7% raise this year, we propose that W. Miller's "conservative"
increase of two J -steps be applied to the following classes:
Mechanic II
Utility Plant Operator I1
Chief Utility Plant Operator
Water Supply Operator
Water Supply Assistant
Utility Plant Operator
Police Captain
Police Lieutenant
Police Sergeant
Battalion Chief
Fire Marshal
Fire Captain
2. For all other classes, we would propose the J -step increase.
3. As a necessary third condition to the two above, we would propose that the
Council revise their fringe benefit increase to an amount equivalent to the "in-
dividual employee's basic rate." In party with this, the City employees agree to
elect the Blue Cross Plan for 1966 =67 with a basic rate of $7.79. This change
would return to the City approximately $1,800 of the $9.00 contribution already
offered by the Council.
The above proposal would require budgeting approximately the same as the
Administrative Officer's original recommendation, and approximately the same as the
Council's last proposal. While we realize that this is a far cry from our original
proposal (which we still contend to be just and accurate), we do feel at this late
date that our compromise proposal would be much more palatable to the employees
than the Council's last offer, even though at approximately the same cost to the
City.
Mr. M. Dixon, Battalion Fire Chief, appeared before the City Council objecting to
the Council's action relative to salaries for the 1965 /66 budget particularly the
arbitrary way the City Council handled the salary increases for supervisory personnel
Mr. Dixon stated he objected to supervisory personnel not being given credit in
salary considerations for their extra ability and responsibility. He continued that
if the Council's present proposal was extended year after year, there would be no
incentive for individual employees to take on responsible positions as there would
be no compensation for this responsibility.
Mayor Whelchel explained the thinking behind the action in the 1965 /66 budget in
attempting to raise the salaries of the employees in the lower brackets rather than
expanding the difference by flat percent increase for all classifications.

4. The location of this property is poor for retail development. It would
add to the traffic congestion and hazards of the Chorro - Foothill Boulevard inter-
section.
Mayor Whelchel declared the public hearing open.
Mr. Martin Polin appeared before the City Council and made a lengthy presentation
' on behalf of his appeal for zoning for property at north Chorro and Foothill Boule-
vard for commercial uses.
Mr. Polin presented extensive facts and figures supporting his contention that the
Planning Commission's family count in the proposed shopping area was too conserva-
tive. Further, Mr. Polin claimed that the boundaries of the proposed shopping center
area to be served by these stores was much too small and did not take into consider-
ation the student population at Cal Poly and the resident population of Mustang
Village, Tropicana and the Islander.
Farther, he felt that the City Planning Commission had neglected the area along
Highway #1 to Camp San Luis Obispo which will ultimately be developing and will be
in the City and would be customers of this enlarged shopping center.
Mr. A. Renetzky, Attorney for Mr. Estes doing business as the Cork and Bottle,
appeared before the City Council urging that this property be rezoned to C -1 as
requested by Mc° Polin as his client will be the first one in the new shopping
center and will develop a new liquor delicatessen store.
Dr. James Mullen appeared before the City Council urging that the City Council
approve this rezoning as anything would be better than the development Mr. Polin
has on the property at the present time.
Mr. Estes of the Cork and Bottle appeared before the City Council urging that they
' approve the zoning as requested as he wishes to construct a new building and move
his business to that area.
Mayor Whelchel declared the public hearing closed.
The City Council discussed the rezoning as requested by Mr. Polin particularly with
reference to the removal of the trailer park existing on the lot as this development
is an eye sore and a blight on the neighborhood.
On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Spring. the following•
ordinance was introduced. Ordinance No. 351, an ordinance rezoning 790 Foothill
Boulevard from R -3 to C -1.
Introduced and passed to print on the following roll call vote:
AYES: Frank Gallagher, Donald Q. Miller, Arthur F. Spring,
Clell W. Whelchel
NOES: Emmons Blake
ABSENT: None
7. At this time the City Council continued the public hearing on the intention of
the City Council to abandon a portion-of Henderson Street between Abbott Street
' and Garfield Street.
Mr. Romero, City Engineer, reported that the complete negotiations have not been
made with the Green's for development of their property and recommended that the
City Council continue this matter until this can be completed.
R. At this time the City Council held a public hearing on the request of the
property owners for improved water service on California Boulevard west of Cal Poly
and to discuss a proposal of the City Council to extend an improved water line under
the railroad tracks and install a hydrant providing the property owners and /or
tenants made the necessary extensions to the new system.
Communication received from the property owners stating they had received the
communication from the City Council for improving the water service and stated they

11. At this time the City Council received a communication from the Planning
Commission regarding the recommendation of the Minor Subdivision Committee concern-
ing application from Mr. Brodie for a lot split at 140 North Santa Rosa Street.
Mr. Brodie requested a number of exceptions concerning (1) lot width, (2) lot area,
(3) street improvements, (4) curb, gutter, sidewalk on Santa Rosa Street, (5) water
supply. The City Engineer recommended as follows:
1. The new 541 wide street should be dedicated and fully improved to City
standards, with the exception that a plant mix berm be substituted for curb, gutter
and sidewalk on the North side.
' 2. Curb, gutter, sidewalk and paving out to the existing road improvement
should be installed on Santa Rosa Street.
This installation will enable the City to require comparable improvements by
the adjoining Lutheran Church, as this was a condition of the approval of their
Use Permit.
3. A water line to be installed along Santa Rosa Street from Foothill Boule-
vard to serve this property.
The exception requested was to enable the applicant to use well water and avoid
installation of the water line.
