C. Baker then presented a petition signed by eight property owners on Verde Drive requesting that these trees be removed as they are unsafe, subject to falling debris, ' and are a'hazard•to adjacent property. W. Wagonner urged the removal of the trees due to the hazard to the adjacent property and hoped the City Council would allow Baker to take them all out. C. Baker appeared before the City Council asking the Council to amend the,•planned development for his proposed phase three to allow him to remove all the trees along the west boundary line as he felt the trees were a- hazard to adjacen t property and that he be allowed to replace the trees with appropriate trees at the time-of de- velopment of phase three. City Council Minutes January 20, 1969 Page 2 He stated that he and his brother did not care one way or another on this matter, but if the adjacent property owners wished him to remove the trees he would be willing to do so. R. D. Young, Planning Director, upon question by the Council, stated he did not know if the trees were a hazard or not, but he felt the City Council should leave it up to the adjacent property owners as to' whether the trees should be removed or not. H. Yasumoto, 10 Verde Drive, urged the removal of these trees, and worried about the large falling limbs scattering debris and dirt into his yard. Councilman Blake stated he objected to the removal••of any trees without the agree- ment for immediate replacement by the property owner. Councilman Spring stated he had looked into the matter and that the eucalyptus- - trees are a dirty tree with large limbs falling all the time and felt that these particular trees are hazardous to adjacent property. Councilman Gallagher stated he felt the eucalyptus trees could be trimmed and topped and would,fill.out and would be an adequate windbreak and would also protect the adjacent property owners from looking into the student housing parking lot. He agreed that the trees were dirty... I Councilman Blake suggested that- the City Council hold a public hearing on the matter of keeping or removing the trees along the westerly boundary line of.Tro- picana. He felt that topping the trees would be. sufficient for the adjacent property owners. Councilman Gallagher stated that he would support the request of the property owners for the removal of these.trees on the basis..of.safety.:. Councilman Miller felt that these particular trees were dirty and unsafe to.adja- cent property and would support the proposal to-.remove-them.. On motion of Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Spring,.-.that the City'' grant Charles Baker the right to remove the trees on the northerly and westerly boundary and then when the final phase of the development is completed, that appropriate trees be replanted along the property boundary.. Trees to-be- removed to include trees on the westerly boundary line facing Verde Drive. Motion carried, Councilman Blake voting no. 3. Communication from M. W. Wilson, 336 Tblosa Way, requesting an exception to Code Section 7330.6'to allow additional width for the driveway to be constructed on his property, was continued to the February 3, 1969,.meeting. 4. R. D. Miller, Administrative Officer, presented a report on the Committee studying the request to open Mill Street between Broad and Nipomo Streets. He continued that the meeting was attended by the Council committee, Councilman Spring and Councilman Millers- James Zanoli and Robert Janssen-representing the San Luis Blues and Richard Wood; representing the Old Mission Church. The committee was informed that.in the 19401s, deed were exchanged by the City, the Old Mission Church and IDES Association to allow the City to close Mill Street and open Peach Street for through traffic from Peach to Nipomo Street*,:. r „ No formal agreement was filed, but it was the intention of the City that-Mill . would be closed and that the baseball field would be enlarged aver that area. Church representatives stated that the opening of Mill Street would be-hazardous to school children attending the Catholic schools as at the present time there is a free flow of pedestrian traffic.between-the high school and the elementary- school. The City Clerk presented the following letters pertaining to the closing of Mill Street. . < 1 J City Council Minutes January 20, 1969 Page 3 Communication from -S. Leguina, long -time manager of the San Luis Blues, stating that it was his understanding at the time of the closing of'Mill Street-that it was'done in order to enlarge Mission Field into a regulation baseball diamond, and that with the exchange of property•between the three entities he was sure that somewhere an agreement must have been drawn up,` Communication from D. M. Carpenter, former City Councilman, stating that he was on the City Council during the time of the closing of Mill Street and it was his under- ' standing that the exchange of property between IDES Hall Association, the Old Mis- sion Church, and the City was accomplished in order to close Mill-'Street so that the Mission Field could be enlarge. Communication from Kline J. Williams, former-City Councilman stating that'it was during his term on the City Council that the negotiations for the closing of Mill Street-were accomplished and that the exchange of deeds between the IDES Hall . Association and the City was the basis for the agreement to close the street. B. Janssen, representing the San Luis Blues, submitted copies of deeds mentioned above. George Andre, former City Attorney, explained the events that took place between The City, the IDES Hall Association and the Catholic Church regarding the enlarge- ment of the Mission Field baseball park. He continued that no formal agreement between the three parties was achieved in order to protect the City from losing any rights on future Mill Street if the street were needed in the future for street purposes. H. Johnson, City Attorney, stated: In order to maintain a formal action to-eject the fence from the property, a suit would-have to.be filed in Superior Court. In such an action the adjoining property owner, the Church and its permittees, the' Blues, can raise the question of estoppel both against the City and the owner who is the successor in interest of the IDES Hall. -It should be rioted also that the obstruction in question was present and visible on the property at the time the party now complaining purchased from the'IDES and; since a "visual inspection of the property at the time of purchase'would•have revealed the fence, it is also probable that the Statute of Limitations has now run against her regarding any possible dam- age which may have eaused her property. Furthermore, her property does abut the realigned portion o Peach Street along the southwesterly boundary of said par- cels so that the property- -owned.by Mrs. Schlaff is not without access to'a public street. On the other hand, the City probably could, at some future date, decide to-declare-the fence•a- public nuisance so that the private property =owner may :wi "sh to approach Council again once Sinsheimer Field is ready: Mayor Whelchel suggested that this matter be tabled for one year.- The motion was lost for lack of a second. George Andre suggested that the -City Council make °a• decision now and not hold this matter over for one year, and then let the property owner sue for access if she desired.' He felt that the street should continue to'be closed ont only:for -the= baseball field but to - protect the children from the two Catholic schools. Councilman Blake felt that Mrs. Schlaff, the adjacent property owner, should be in attendance during these discussions by the Council. Counci"an Miller stated he felt the street should be opened as soon as the base- ' ball field -in Sinsheimer Park-is ready, as this is the only through street from Grand Avenue to Nipomo Street. R. Wood, representing the Catholic Church, stated he wished,to remind the City Council that the Catholic Church was also involved and-felt that they- should be consulted before opening Mill Street. -He continued that, even if an agreement between the three parties had not been achieved there might be a good chance -of keeping Mill Street closed :through es- toppel.

Romero; City Engineer, reported.on the condition of Flora Street since the rains: He.-stated that with the exception of chip seal.coat whicb,slnuld be placed during the warm weather, Flora Street had been ready for acceptance January 18, prior to the storm. With the heavy storm water flows down Flora Street, curb, gutter and sidewalk were undermined and a fairly substantial amount of damage had occurred to the base and .paving. Mr. Romero explained.that this damage was not the fault of the contractor, however, the City could not accept the liability.and could not accept the streets unless they were completely improved or bonded. R. Brown, developer, stated that it was his impression that the City Council could accept the final map of Tract No. 375 without accepting Flora Street._ H. Johnson, City Attorney, stated that the final map cannot be accepted with the completion of Flora Street unless the developer wished to increase the bond on the tract to include the completion of Flora Street. R. Brown stated that had not the great flood engulfed the tract all the improve- ments on Flora Street in Tract 375 would be complete. He continued that he is looking into legal steps to liquidate his losses -due to flood damage. ' Mr. Foster, developer, stated that the damage was caused by debris in-the drainage channels. D. F.

Flora Street and the final map of Tract 375 until all the improvements were com- plete or require the.subdivision bond to be increased.to cover.all.the subdivision improvements.

D. Miller, Administrative Officer, reported to the City Council that no'aid would be made available to private property owners in the area unless the area was declared a disaster area and then the Small Business Administration could come in and provide assistance for private property owners.'in repaiiingtheir property. Councilman Blake stated that while he objected to asking for aid to repair`.City• facilities,.he2did not object to helping citizens of the City repair residences " and private businesses damaged in the rain. Councilman Gallagher stated he felt the City should apply for a declaration of a disaster-area so that State and Federal funds would be made available to repair public facilities in the county and not expect our local tax payers to pay-for these.additional costs that were not planned.for. He continued that as taxpayers, the residents of this community have been paying money to help other areas that have disaster problems and now it is the.City's turn to get help.
