City Council Minutes September 19, 1966 Page 2 Mr. Crossman, Acting City Attorney, notified the City Council that a review of the provisions of the Municipal Code showed that the City Council under the business - license ordinance could not take any action against the license of the Pizza Pantry as it was not issued under the provisions of Section 6100.8C over which the Council has jurisdiction.

The City Council considered a referral from the Planning Department of a request for a sign permit for Martinizing Cleaning Shop" in the Polin Shopping Center.

Mayor Whelchel explained to the City Council the proposed amendments being made by the City Sign Committee relative to signs of this type in C -1 shopping areas. Mr. Dan Law appeared before the City Council on behalf of the 120 square foot sign, saying that it would be a financial burden to him if he had to send the sign back east and order a•smaller sign. Further, he felt that the minutes of the October 17, 1965 Planning Commission meeting approved this sign without limitation and further the sign was in the City of San Luis Obispo,'had been received and was awaiting installation as soon as the permit was issued.

Traffic Committee Report of September 12, 1966. 66 -9 -1C. Regarding Chief Rodgers' letter (copy transmitted 4erewith) on the question of directional signs leading to the Old Mission, the Traffic Committee has asked that Chief Rodgers and Dave Romero make recommendations for signs on various local streets pointing to the Old Mission. On the question of whether or not the City should find locations and pay for the construction of bill- board type directional signs at the City limits, the Traffic Committee feels that this is a broader policy decision which should be decided by the City ' Council. Mr. Romero, City Engineer, reported that he and the Police Chief recommended that directional signs to.the Mission.be placed at the following intersections: Chorro and Marsh Santa Rosa and Monterey (3) Chorro and Higuera Lincoln and Broad Lincoln and Chorro The Traffic Committee felt that these relocations would give broader coverage from all accesses to the City. 1 1 1 City Council Minutea September 19, 1966 Page 6 The Council suggested that the sign proposed for the intersection of Chorro and Marsh be installed at the intersection of Broad and Marsh. On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Gallagher, that the Traffic Committee recommendations be accepted and that the City ask the Division of Highways to place a "Mission San Luis Obispo" sign on Highway 1. Motion carried. 66 -9 -2T. The Traffic Committee has received a petition from several retail merchants and employees, requesting-that all day parking meters be returned on Monterey Street between Broad and Nipomo so that there would be a place to park during working hours. The Traffic Committee recommends against this because this is a residential area and it was noted that these meters were not used very much when they were in operation. It is suggested that the Council ask the City Clerk to write to the circulator of the petition and advise him of this recommendation, if the Council concurs. On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Suring, that the recommenda- tion of the Traffic Committee be accepted. Motion carried. 66 -9 -3T. The Traffic Committee has received a request from the Blue Bell motel for a directional sign at Elks Lane and Higuera, pointing to the right and also suggest- ing that information booths be established at the north and south City limits to help tourists. The Traffic Committee recommends against the directional sign because it feels we have enough of these signs.at the present time and a right arrow directional sign at this location would not be fair to other motels which were located to the left of this location. We.also feel that the information booth suggestion would be impractical because of the problem of staffing the booths. On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Spring, that the Council adopt the recommendation of the Traffic Committee. 66 -9 -5T. The Traffic Committee has looked at the street lighting situation on Montalban between Santa Rosa and the Freeway and feels that a larger light should be installed at the intersection of Hathway and Montalban, a new pole erected at the corner of Ellen Way and Montalban and a light installed there, an additional pole and light installed at the curve adjacent to .the baseball field, and.the_ _ present light at the corner of Lemon and Nontalban be removed. Mr. Romero, City Engineer, reported that the Pacific Gas and Electric engineer suggested that rather than installing an additional pole along the baseball field that the present light at the northwest corner _of Lemon and Montalban be relocated to the northeast corner and that all lights be 2500 lumen. On motion of Councilman Gallagher, seconded by Councilman Miller, that the recommendation of the Traffic E_ ommittee as amended be approved. Motion carried. 66 -9 -6T. The Traffic Committee has received a letter from the Division of Highways through Mr.-Romero, regarding the landscaping situation in the center island on Santa Rosa between Murray Street and Boysen Avenue. In short, the Division of Highways said that the responsibility for any landscaping on a strip of conventional highway like this one would be the Cityls•. The Traffic Committee notes that this was formerly planted.and maintained by the Division of Highways and takes issue with the Division of Highways on this. The matter is referred to the City Council to see whether or not it is desired that further steps be taken to have the Division of Highways resume the maintenance of this area.' - - On motion of Councilman Spring, seconded be authorized to contact the Division of help on this matter. Motion carried. by Councilman Gallagher, that the Mayor Highways Headquarters in Sacramento for 66 -9 -7T. The Traffic Committee has noted that the Southern Pacific Company has left the right of way in the vicinity of Palm and Pepper in a very bad condition following the construction of the Mill Street overpass bridge. It is suggested that the Mayor address a letter to the Southern Pacific Company, requesting that they clean the area up. On motion of Councilman Blake, seconded by Councilman Miller, that the recommenda- tion of the Traffic Committee be accepted and the Mayor be authorized to write to the Southern Pacific Company.
