CONFERENCE ROOM, CITY HALL Present: John C. Brown, Myron Graham, T. Keith Gurnee, Jesse Norris and Mayor Kenneth E. Schwartz Absent: None Present: J. H. Fitzpatrick, City Clerk; R. D. Miller, Administrative Officer; A. J. Shaw, Jr., City Attorney; D. F. Romero, City Engineer; David Williamson, Assistant Administrative Officer; Wayne Peterson, Assistant City Engineer; Robert Strong, Planning Director 4B. Continued consideration of the approval of the final map and subdivision agreement for Garden Homes, Los Verdes Park, Tract 467, Unit 2. Continued from July I, 1974. D. F. Romero, City Engi.neer, submitted a report relative to flood waters displaced by fill proposed i.n Tract 467, Unit 2 as evidenced from the 1973 flood. The City Engineer presented a cross section drawn to scale of the waterway area opposite the lowest end of Unit 2. He stated the cross section showed the area between the north -bound off -ramp to the Los Osos interchange and beyond the limit of flooding in Garden Homes. By the City's analysis, flood waters within the area proposed to be filled, provided for 17 cubic feet /second of the total of 15,200 c.f.s. which passed this point during the 1.973 storm.-.He felt this was approximately one -tenth (1 /10) of one percent (1 %) of the total flow. He continued that if these waters were prevented from flowing across that portion of Tract 467 proposed to be filled, that the resultant raise of the flood levels for the entire area would not be measurable. He felt the flood levels could be lowered in this -area by allowing cattle or sheep to graze on the flood plain, thus improving the flow characteristics due to clearing out of undesirable brush, debris and long grass: He also submitted.a letter.from the State Department of Transportation which indicated that they felt no concern with the fill within Tract 467, and its effect 'upon their highway and highway property. Robert Strong, Planning Director, again reviewed his report of June 27, 1974 regarding the final map and subdivision agreement Tract 467, Unit 2. He stated that it was his evaluation that the project had. advanced to final stages of planning with only-minor alterations to the preliminary grading plans considered more than one:and one -half years ago. He felt that modifications had generally reduced :the amount of earthwork involved. He felt the inherent problem was observed two years ago with the City Engineer advised that the initial design of the planned development was not appropriate to the existing terrain. Despite this initial advice, the City had approved numerous refinements to the proposal and authorized removal of material from Unit 2 to supply fill for Unit 'I and backfill for related sewer and water construction. The damage which might have been avoided by a more appropriate design which better fit natural terrain was done, and the natural terrain was no City Council Minutes July 16, 1974 Page 2 longer evident. Robert Strong stated, that from a practical perspective, there was little option but to allow further grading, and the approved plan required substantial terracing to accommodate the cluster housing proposed. He felt that while a total redesign might accomplish a reduction in grading, this would imply starting the design from the beginning. Regardless of redesign, considerable earthwork would.be necessary to regrade the excavated areas to a condition which would accommodate development. Although the EIR made brief reference to grading in the area west of the project, it provided no detail regarding the extent of "off- site" fill, the impact of such additional deposits upon flood plain capacity, displacement of flood waters to other properties or other related, potential adverse environmental effects. He concluded that there were, however, other areas which were not flood prone on which the excess material could be deposited, and, with further study, the proposed.off -site grading might be shown to involve only insignificant effects with proper mitigation measures. It was his recommendation that the final map .for Tract 467, Unit 2, conformed to the approved precise plan and tentative map, and the staff suggested that the Council accept the final map and subdivision agree- ment, subject to the condition that any off -site grading shall be a separate and independent consideration. Councilman Gurnee stated that he was still opposed to the proposal to move dirt from Unit 2 to the adjacent property. He felt that this would be a poor precedent and detrimental to the environment. He felt that ' 60,000 yards of dirt was too much to move into a flood plain. He stated that he was opposed to development of Unit I, and was more strongly opposed to the development H Unit 2. Councilman Brown felt that unless the flood plain was not affected by the development, he could not support the development. He felt that the Engineer's report cleared up this matter for him, and he would support the development of Unit 2. Councilman Graham felt that Unit 2 was acceptable, but, he felt that the Council must some day face the issue of grading in the flood plain and the re- alignment of San Luis Creek in this general area. Councilman Norris felt the movement of dirt was not adverse and what was important was the result of the development for the citizens of San Luis Obispo and the amenities for the residents of the tract. He felt he could support the approval of Unit 2 of Tract 467. Mayor Schwartz felt the Council approved the preliminary plan for Units I and 2, and he was satisfied with the development of Unit I. He did not realize in the preliminary.plan that such a tremendous volume of dirt was to be moved on the site and additional dirt off the site. He felt the report of the City Engineer cleared up the flood problem to Unit 2 to his satisfaction, and he would approve the final map of Unit 2 and also the subdivision agreement. On motion of Councilman Norris, seconded by Councilman Brown that the City Council accept and approve the final map of Tract 467, Unit 2 and the subdivision agreement as amended by the City Council. Motion carried on the following roll' call vote: City Council Minutes July 16, 1974 . Page 3 AYES: Councilmen Norris, Brown,.Graham and Mayor Schwartz NOES: Councilman Gurnee ' ABSENT: None The action.of the City Council included a grading permit for Unit 2, and they overruled the recommendation-of the Architectural Review Commission and the Waterways Planning Board as far as it applied to grading at the western boundary of Unit 2. Regarding 'off= site" grading, A. J. Shaw, City Attorney, read section 8120 of the Municipal Code suggesting that the City Council could not under this ordinance authorize the moving of dirt onto adjacent property unless the property owner could establish the existence of the conditions set forth in the ordinance. Warren Dolezal, Developer of Tract 467, requested City Council approval of a grading permit to move dirt from Unit 2, Tract 467 to the adjacent property which was not under development at this time. Mr. Dolezal reviewed for:-the City Council that he had a tentative map filed with the Planning Commission for development not only of Units I and 2 of Tract 467, but also the adjacent Tract which was- planned to be highway commercial. He continued that the fill would be required to enable future development and that this grading was surplus dirt from Units I and 2. Future proposed commercial development would also require improvement and re- aligning of.San Luis Creek running 1 through the property. He .concluded that the EIR prepared for'Tract 467 included grading of the property proposed for commercial development adjacent-to Units I and 2 of Tract 467. He, therefore, again asked that the City Council grant permission to place excess material from Unit 2 grading operation on the adjacent property in accordance with the tentative plans submitted. Robert Strong, Planning Director, stated that the prior EIR did not sufficiently discuss the "off- site" grading.proposed and that the Council should first determine whether, pursuant.to City ordinances, any off -site grading would be acceptable to the City. He suggested that this matter be referred to the Architectural Review Commission for review and recommendation, and also to the Planning Commission for determination on the requirements of an EIR submittal, if.the Council would consider off -site grading acceptable in concept. David Williamson, Assistant Administrative Officer, reminded the City Council of the implication of the federal flood Insurance Program on development in areas classified as flood prone. After discussion by the City Council, it was the consensus that the Council take no action on Mr. Dolezal's request to move dirt from Unit 2 to the adjacent property until a full staff report was made on the request by the developer and to see i.f the property met pre- scribed exceptions. 5. Discussion of the League of Women Voters' proposal for the City Council to change the election date for.Municipal Elections from the third Tuesday in April in the odd numbered year to.the first Tuesday after the first Monday in March of the odd numbered years, in order to coincide with recently enacted state law establishing state -wide election dates for school districts in California. City Council Minutes July 16, 1974 Page 4 Mrs. Robert Pederson, President, League 6f Women Voters, appeared before the City Council in support of the Leagues! request for a change in City election date. ' On motion of Councilman Gurnee, seconded by Councilman Graham the following resolution was introduced: RESOLUTION NO. 2639 (1.974 Series), a resolution of the Council of the City.of San Luis Obispo giving notice of a Special Municipal Election to be held Tuesday_; November 5, 1974, to vote upon a proposed charter amendment changing the date of the General Municipal Election for City elective officials to coincide with the date mandated by State Law for School Board Elections, and to establish the first day of April as the date of taking office.

Memorandum from John Quirk,.Assistant Director-6f Water Services, requesting that the City Council approve a notice of water use restrictions in the Los.Osos Valley and Zone I due to increased demand at this time of the year and the existing systems deficiencies.. He recommended that the following conditions be implemented: I. Use of water through hydrants for construction projects be limited to the hours of 1:00 P.M. through 4:00 P.M.. 2.. That specific days be scheduled in advance and verified with water and fire departments. 3. That if water usage through hydrants caused excessive pressure loss the operation should cease. 4. That the area covered by these restrictions include the major portion of the old town area which lies within Zone I. 5. Use of water for residential or commerical irrigation be limited to the hours of 9:00 P.M. and 6:00 A.M. . 6. That these restricti.ons remain in effect until pressure monitoring stations within the zone.indi.cate an easing of demand and acceptable pressure levels. R. D. Miller, Administrative Officer, stated that it was understood that this proposal to restrict water use would be on a voluntary basis unless wide- spread abuses occurred. On motion of Councilman Gurnee, seconded by Councilman Graham the recommen- dation of water use restriction in Los Osos Valley and'Zone I was approved. , 7.

He recommended that the City Council accept the proposals as follows: Penfield.& Smith to provide construction inspection as described in their letter of May 8, 1974, estimated cost of $20,000. 2. Buena Engineers, Inc., to provide grading and backfill testing, concrete testing, qualifications of welders, radiographic inspection of welds and painting, and leakage inspection as required by the construction inspector, estimated cost for services.$13,200. 3.• Dames &:Moore to review the geologic and hydrologic conditions at appropriate times during construction as called for by the construction inspector., estimated cost for the services $1,500. . 4. Jennings; "Bartlett & Associates for construction staking and.cross sectioning as called.for by the constructing inspector, estimated cost for services, $9,000. Councilman Norris objected to retaining Buena= Engineering, Inc. to provide grading and backfill testing, concrete testing, etc. instead of Central Coast Labs, which was a local firm and which he stated would do the work much cheaper than Buena. Further, he felt the City should go with a local engineer, Mr. Williams. After discussion by the City Council, it was moved on motion of Councilman Brown, seconded by Councilman Norris that items I, 3 and 4 be approved as recommended at the estimated.cost; and that item 2, Buena Engineers be continued for a further information from City staff.

Box 1295 San Luis Obispo, CA Alt. 2 $59,729.00 A memorandum from Paul E. LandelI, Jr. was submitted in which he stated that the low bid from Smee's Plumbing of their alternate bid-of $59,110 included a joint trench and back'fill operation with the Southern California Gas Company at Elks Lane. He stated the Gas Company had agreed to pay the $2,000 difference, plus one =half of the cost of compliance with the Fish & Game regulations at this site. One -half would be $875.00. He oontinued'that after discussion with Smee's, it was agreed that two - thirds of the cost of compliance with the Fish & Game regulations could be deleted, because if they awarded the contract for the job, they would run the waterline and sewerline jobs together and could delete a substantial portion of the work necessary to comply with the regulations. This would result in a further savings of $1,172.50.
