The City Council discussed with the public present the plans for the realignment of
Monterey Street and the development of the Mission Plaza.
Mayor Whelchel stated that it was the Council's intention to do what they could
to save the Murray adobe, if it were in condition to be saved, and the Council agreed
in principal in regards to saving the-adobe on the Westbrook property when the
realignment of Monterey Street is contemplated.
Mr. Rodrigues appeared before the City Council and presented a new scheme '
for the realignment of Monterey Street east of its present alignment and also
an extension of Garden Street to Monterey Street.
Mr. Nicholson, President of the Historical Society, thanked the Council for its
patience and courtesy in listening to their presentation and hoped the Council
would do all in its power to preserve the historical sites and buildings in San
Luis Obispo.
2. Mr. William McLennan, representing the Sophomore Class of the Senior High
School, appeared before the City Council requesting permission for the School
to use the City owned Cornet Store building for a Teen Fair and Teen Fashion
Show.
Mr. McLennan stated that what they had in mind was a fashion show, surf films,
sidewalk cafe, speakers and Saturday Night Dance. He said the inside of the
building would be set up with merchant displays to advertise products of interest
to teenagers and carnival type booths for entertainment.
Mr. McLennan stated the Sophomore Class hoped to accomplish the following with
the Teen Fair: (1) have an enjoyable activity for students;-(2) help establish
cooperation between the teenagers, the merchants and the Community; (3) a means
of advertising for the merchants; (4) educational value for students working on
the project; (5) and a certain amount of funds for school activities. '
Councilman.Blake stated he thought the plan was fine and.would like to encourage
the students on this type of project but stated that the Council Committee
studying the use of the Cornet property.is presently negotiating with the Pacific
Telephone and Telegraph Company for a three month lease with the building which
would conflict with the dates selected by the students.
Councilman Miller felt that he would like to see the young people use the building
rather than a short lease for a public utility. He continued that people were
always criticising the youngsters and when they wanted to do something the people
always found reasons not to help.
Mayor Whelchel stated that the City.Council had turned down requests by other civic
groups for use of the Cornet building and felt that the City Council should not be
put in a position of choosing which group should use the building and which group
should not.
Further, he stated he hoped that the City would have a final disposition of the
property within the next three months either by sale or by trade for other
property.
On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Gallagher, that the request
of the Sophomore Class be accepted, no rent be charged and that the dates be
changed to April 6, 7, and 8, 1967 and the Mayor to appoint a Council Committee
to work with the students. Motion carried. ,
Mayor Whelchel appointed the Council Committee of Councilman Blake and Councilman
Miller to work out the details with the Sophomore Class.

and Police Departments throughout the State. He stated'that in fact, when the

to the City for sidewalk purposes along San Luis Drive across from the City School
property in accordance with the inquiry made by the City Engineer of San Luis
Obispo.
Mr. Romero, City Engineer, explained that the Council modification of the San
Luis Drive setback line calls for a portion of the sidewalk and curb to be
located on Southern Pacific right -of -way and that Southern Pacific has offered
to grant the City an easement for $2,500 or approximately $1.00 per square foot.
Mr. Romero explained that there was no urgency regarding acquisition of this
easement, since there was no immediate need for sidewalk..

10. Traffic Committee report of February 21, 1967.
67- .3 -2T. The Traffic Committee has received an informal request from Charles
Berkemeyer for one green zone east of his apartment driveway ramp on Mill Street.
We do not feel, however, that such a zone could be justified, and if this request
were granted, we would undoubtedly be beseiged with similar requests all over
town, with resultant painting and enforcement expense.
67 -3 -4T. The Traffic Committee has received a request from the Foothill Plaza
Shopping Center (Jordanos, Thrifty, etc.), for a left hand turning pocket on
Foothill for west bound motorists making a left hand turn into the shopping
center. The Traffic Committee does not feel that this is justified at the present
time and recommends against the turning pocket. If the Council concurs in this
recommendation, it is suggested that_the City Clerk transmit a copy of this
recommendation to Mr. W. T. Gleeson.
On motion of Councilman Blake.' seconded by Councilman Gallagher, the recommendation
of the Traffic Committee was accepted. Motion carried.
67 -3 -1T. The Traffic Committee has received a request that the alley running
at right angles to Santa Rosa and Toro Street between Monterey and Palm Streets
be marked for "No Parking." The property owners in this area have done a good job
in cleaning up the alley and paving it and we feel that this request is justified
and so recommend.
67 -3 -3T. The Division of Highways has requested that a red zone be.established
on the west side of Santa Rosa between Olive and Montalban Streets in connection
with the forthcoming street widening on Santa Rosa. The Traffic Committee feels
that this is an excellent idea and suggests that such 'a red zone be installed
at this time, even before the widening, so that motorists will become accustomed
to this change in the parking pattern.
On motion of Councilman Gallagher, seconded by Councilman Blake, the following
resolution was introduced. Resolution.No. 1667, a resolution setting parking
restrictions in the alley between Monterey and Palm Streets running between Santa
Rosa and Toro, and setting future parking restrictions on Santa Rosa between
Olive and Montalban Streets.

Considerable discussion had been taking place of late.regarding the desirability
of incorporating a control center in the basement of the new proposed police
building which would accommodate Council members, staff members, police personnel

The City.Council then discussed the best.location of the Operation Center, whether
it should be at the new Police Facility or whether it should continue in the
basement of the City Hall.
Police. Chief, E. L. Rodgers, stated that the most important single item in a
disaster is communications and he.felt that with the new Police Facility that
there might be more adequate service provided for radio and telephones to be used
in the event of a disaster.

Harold Johnson, City-Attorney, briefed for the Council's information the provisions
of the agreement previously discussed by the City Council.
The City Council then discussed the cost of the land to the City that was needed
for street widening with representatives of the Johnson. Trust.
Mr. Rome =o, City Engineer, stated that since the.prior meeting a more definite
area had been calculated and that the take by the City involved 649 square feet
less than the prior estimate and therefore the cost to the City should be adjusted.
Fred Gist, representing the Johnson Estate, stated this was the first time that he
was aware of any new areas involved but that if the City Engineer's statement was
correct then the cost to the City should be reduced accordingly.
He stated.that on.the basis of-- 649 = square feet being•purchased . by.the City, then
the cost to'the City'should.be- $58,298:'

NORTH SIDE OF FOOTHILL BETWEEN TASSAJARA & CUESTA:
Delmartini - No action by Public Works Department in past two weeks pending
Planning Commission approval of a minor subdivision made necessary by the widening.
WEST SIDE OF SANTA ROSA BETWEEN MILL AND PALM:
857 Santa Rosa: Johnson property at corner of Mill and Santa Rosa acquired.
865 Santa Rosa: Adamski property under negotiation.
871 Santa Rosa: Barbee property - referred to City Attorney since Mr. Kardel
is acting-for Mr. Barbee.
All other widenings included in'this year's priority program have either been
acquired, are pending appraisals or have been turned over to the City Attorney's
Office for negotiation.
32. Mr. Ted Maino, representing the Maino Construction Company, Inc., appeared
before the City Council requesting that the City accept the approach being used
to repair the sewer lift station in Tract No. 347.
Mr. Romero, City Engineer,-explained that he felt there was some likelihood that a
repair rather than a replacement of the internal equipment in the sewer lift.
station would result in the City accepting a facility which is not new or which
may have some defects which might not appear within the warranty period. Mr.
Romero also pointed out that the warranty covers only labor and equipment and
does not cover liability or extra expenses which may be entailed by the City in
bypassing the lift station during a fai -lure. He stated that he had no serious
objection to the approach being suggested by Mr. Maino so long as the City Council
understands the implication of accepting a station which has been damaged and
' subsequently repaired.
Mr. Maino explained that he was having all the repair work to the equipment in
the lift station done locally and the station was being rewired by a local
contractor and he stated that the local representatives would guarantee the work
they were doing and that the manufacturer's representative, builder_ of the-lift
station, stated he would inspect the plant and if the repairs were satisfactory
then the manufacturer would warrant the lift station for one year from date of
acceptance to protect the City.
Mr. Romero, City Engineer, stated that it was his opinion that even though the
sewer lift station was repaired and guaranteed for one year by the manufacturer,
he felt that the City was still taking a calculated risk on the plant not being
good as new, since the-flooding could damage components which might fail and cause
expense -to' =the- City.•
The City Attorney; Harold Johnson; 'suggested that in addition to the form guarantee,
that the manufacturer after inspection of the repairs and clean up, be asked to
submit a-letter=.to the City guaranteeing the installation for a one year period.
On motion of Councilman Blake, seconded by Councilman Spring, that-T. Maino
proceed with the repairs to the sewer lift station per manufacturer's recommenda-
tion and submit .a specific guarantee for this installation by the manufacturer,
Notion carried.
33. The City Council discussed a prior action on the lower Higuera Street setback
line whether the Council required a 6' or 8' width sidewalk.
Mayor Whelchel stated he recalled the discussion -that on the.outlying•portions
of Higuera Street that 6' width sidewalks would be adequate but that the plan shown
by Mr. Romero called for an'8' sidewalk.
Mr. Romero stated that the plan adopted by the Council showed the 8' sidewalk in
accordance with Council action indicated by the check list of June 7, 1966.
After some discussion by the City Council it was -moved by Councilman Miller,
seconded by Councilman Gallagher, that the following resolution be introduced.
