2. Mr. J. Fabbri, representing the Civic and Fine Arts Association, appeared before
the City Council stating that his Association had been continuing its study for ways
of realizing the development of a Convention- Auditorium Center for use for recre-
ation, the performing arts, youth programs, etc. He stated that after considerable
study and discussion, it was the conclusion of the subcommittee that the need for an
Auditorium- Convention Center was immediate and felt that pursuing the development of
a recreation and parking district would be too expensive and time consuming and
therefore recommended to the Mayor and City Council that the City of San Luis Obispo
promptly proceed with the development of a complex that would under a long range
program accomplish these goals.
It is therefore the recommendation of the Directors of the Civic and Fine Arts
' Association: (1) The initial step should be the selection of a site; (2) That the
City Council of the City of San Luis Obispo apply for a planning loan from the
Community Facilities Administration of the HHFA; (3) That the Mayor and City Council
consider the financing of this development through Government Code Section 6540 Et.
Seq. which permits the issuance of revenue bonds by an authority or other public
corporation pursuant to the bond exercise of powers provisions.
The bonds would be secured in accordance with covenants which would provide that all
revenues of the Convention Center would be pledged to the payment of bond debt and
interest. He suggested that the San Luis Obispo County or the Coastal Unified
City Council Minutes

School District could be the other Governmental Agency involved in this program.
Mr. Fabbri stated that the Board of Directors of the Civic and Fine Arts Association
would support the Mayor and City Council in this endeavor by: (1) Encouraging the
Board of Supervisors to participate in the joint powers act with a substantial
annual payment from Room Tax Funds; (2) Encourage the Board of Directors of the
Coastal Unified School District to participate to whatever extent is economically
feasible; (3) organize and acquire definite commitments for use and economic suppor
from organizations having an ability to pay such as the Little Theater, Art Associ-
ation, Community-Concert Association, Symphony Association, etc.; (4) Promote
within the Community the development of a public auditorium, recreation, Convention
Center on City owned property; (5) Encourage the development of the Center at once
even though it may be necessary to accomplish the development in stages.
Mr. Fabbri completed his presentation by submitting a list of names whom he felt
could work with the City Council to study this proposal.
The City Council discussed with Mr. Fabbri various points brought up by him in
his presentation.
Councilman Miller suggested that the City Council meet in a study session so that
the City Council could discuss the proposal of the Civic and Fine Arts Association.
Councilman Spring suggested that the Mayor appoint a Council-Committee to meet with
representatives of the Civic and Fine Arts Association for a more complete analysis
of the proposal and recommendation to the City Council.
Councilman Blake stated he felt there has been enough discussion on this proposal
and that the City should proceed with the program presented by Mr. Fabbri.
Councilman Gallagher stated he questioned having the Council put the City in debt
without a vote of the citizens. He also felt that some additional financial '
information on the feasibility of this type of project should be made. He stated
that he agrees in principal with the program proposed, but he felt that more
detailed financial data should be procured.
Councilman Miller moved that this matter be set for study at an Adjourned Meeting
of March 27, 1967. Motion died for lack of a second.
On motion of Councilman Spring, seconded by Councilman Gallagher, that the Mayor
appoint a Council Committee to meet with representatives of the Civic and Fine

that the suggested property is bounded on three sides by an M District, that the

District and permit the construction of an automobile garage and parts sales
building on the property line.
City Council Minutes
March 20, 1967
Page 6
It was the consensus of the Commission that although the configuration of the
parcel would create a hardship, there was no justification to permit the construction
of the building on the property line. They did agree, however, that if the building
could be re- designed to -set back the required ten feet, it would be appropriate to
use the street yard for parking purposes.
Mr. Romero, City Engineer, explained to the City Council that setback lines for
' street•:wideaing must be established on Santa Barbara Street, and by granting a
variance, the City would be introducing a substantial future expense for acquisition
of a new building.
Mayor Whelchel declared the public hearing open.
Mr. Bill Dodd appeared before the City Council on behalf of his appeal and stated
that due to the overall dimensions of the property it was impossible for him to
set back the 10 feet required and still be able to construct an adequate building
that could be used economically. Further he stated that all the buildings on this
side of Santa Barbara Street.a =e bunit right up to the property line and he did
not feel that he was asking for too much special consideration to allow him to
develop this property.
Councilman Miller stated that he felt the proposed new building would be an asset
to the-area as it would be an improvement in the area and would enhance the
neighborhood and stated he would vote for the variance.
Councilman Blake stated that he agreed with Councilman Miller and that he felt
this building would conform with other business buildings on Santa Barbara Avenue
and further he felt that this particular property met the requirements for a
variance.
Councilman Gallagher stated he felt the new development would be an asset to the
area and that it would be impossible for the property owner to purchase additional
land from the Southern Pacific Company to properly develop his building and there -
f ore he would also vote for this variance.
John Evans, Planning Commissioner, presented to the City,Council the reasons that
the majority of the Planning Commission voted against granting the variance as they
felt that the conditions of a variance were not met on this property and further that
if the Council does not consider the future widening requirements that the City will
be required to purchase a portion of a relatively new building.
He also stated that it was -the suggestion of the Planning Commission that Mr. Dodd
move the proposed building southerly along Santa Barbara Avenue so that all zoning
conditions could be met.
John Rowe, tenant for the new building, explained to the City Council the proposed
development and use of the property including the ingress and egress to.the proposed
shopping and parking area..
Mayor Whelchel declared the public hearing closed.
on motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Gallagher, that the City
Council grant the variance and allow the property owner to build at the 0' setback
and eliminate parking space number nine. Motion carried. Mayor Whelchel voting no.
5. D. F..Romero,.City Engineer, stated to the City Council that Mr. Henry Spain,
Sales Manager of Model Linen-Supply, had been asked to appear before the City
Council at his request regarding the furnishing of uniform services for City
employees working in the field.
Mr. Romero stated that for the past several years he had proposed a uniform service
program in his budget for street and sewer department employees that had been
removed at budget time.
Mr. Henry Spain, Sales Manager of Model Linen Supply., appeared before the City
Council proposing that the City supply uniforms (coveralls) for the field forces of
the City:on the basis of two:suits per.week at $.80 per suit for 52 weeks. He stated
that a nice coverall uniform would make for better morale for the employees, would
be better respected by the public, and would allow supervisors to better control
the activities of the employees.

R. D. Miller, Administrative Officer, stated as follows: Of seven cities recently
surveyed, one had no program, On provided uniforms for garbage collectors and meter
readers. One City provided all expense .for such a program. One City provided
uniforms, and the employees did their own laundering. Three cities shared the
expense of such a program with the employees.

11 & 17. Communication from the Pure Water Association urging that the City
Council allow the matter of the recent fish kill at Whale Rock Reservoir to be
handled without prejudice, pressure, or emotion by the County and City legal
officers who are competent to bring this matter to a fair decision.
They also asked that before a public hearing is scheduled regarding permitting
recreation at the Whale Rock Reservoir, that the County Health Officer should be
asked to participate.
Further the Pure Water Association asked that the City make a reliability study as
to the additional cost of treating the water where recreation is permitted as well
as other costs connected with recreation such as patrol, clean up, etc., and finally
the Pure Water Association reminded the City Council of their request that before
recreation of any kind is permitted on a domestic water supply that the matter be
submitted to a vote of the people.
Communication from Dale Hanner, Chief of the Audits Division, State Department of
Finance, notifying the City Council that the proposed contract for the Whale Rock
Reservoir feasibility study is in the hands of the Chief Counsel in the Department
of General Services for review and study and that he will attempt to expedite this
contract as rapidly asi possible.
Mayor Whelchel stated that he did not feel that the City Council should enter into
a discussion of the fish kill until after the District Attorney, City Attorney,
and Fish and Game Commission had completed their investigation nor did he feel a
discussion should be held on potential recreational development at the Whale Rock
Reservoir until the feasibility study has been approved and completed or disapproved
by the State of California.
He continued that once the feasibility contract has been signed, the report must be
completed and submitted within a four month period.
The Mayor stated if anyone present had anything to say this evening that they
were more than welcome to do so.
Mr. R. Parsons, representing the Sportsmens Association, stated that he and his
association were upset at not being allowed to fish, at the Whale Rock Reservoir
which was built at public expense and which he understands at the time of the bond
issue election that recreation was promised and he feels that the lake should be
open to everyone. He agreed that this matter could be held over for further
public discussion.
Mr. Henry K. Adams, 8800 Atascadero Avenue, Atascadero, representing the Wild
Life Waterways Association, stated that his organization was not interested in
fishing in the dam or who was to blame for killing the fish. They were just
interested in who was to replace the fish that were killed as he felt someone
should replace this natural resource.
Mr. I. Kogan, Pure Water Association, presented to the City Council arguments to
continue the prohibition of recreation on the Whale Rock Reservoir and other
terminal reservoirs.
He also wished the City Council to keep in mind that any recreation on a reservoir
would increase the cost of water treatment to the water customer and therefore
felt that the people should be allowed to vote on whether they wished to pay for
recreation for people fishing at this regional project. He again urged that the
people of the-City of San Luis Obispo be allowed to vote on this most important
subject.

equipment as originally designed at the plant.

whose properties touch on Longview Lane have been contacted regarding their desires
for street lighting in the-area in view of recent thefts to motor vehicles: 14
persons responded in favor of lighting and 10 against, although some of the persons
opposing the street lighting felt that it would be acceptable if the lighting were
somewhat subdued.
It is therefore recommended that the Council authorize the installation of three (3)
lights of the minimum size mercury vapor lighting on Longview Lane, with the lights
to be installed as low as possible so as not to obstruct the view of homes on the
upper side of Longview.
