City Council Minutes April 19, 1976 Page 2- Mayor Kenneth Schwartz reviewed for the public present, the purposes of the Capital Improvement Program and the various categories involved in the program. The Mayor estimated that the City would spend $1,215,000 on the 1976 -77 Capital Improvement Projects. Mayor Schwartz declared the public hearing open. Mrs. Forsyth, representing Aquatics S.L.O., requested that the City Council consider the construction-of the Olympic -sized swimming pool promised by the past City Council to the public of San Luis Obispo. Don Smith hoped the City Council would consider improving the quality of life with whatever funds they had and not just continue contributing to the growth of San Luis Obispo. John Bre, softball player, urged the council to consider a softball field development at Sinsheimer in cooperation with the softball players. Jan Goodrich, Swim Club, urged the council to really support the construction of a swimming pool (olympic- sized) in the City. Randall Cruickshanks felt the City Council should keep in mind the welfare of the young people of .San Luis Obispo in needing a swimming facility for their younger years. Joanne Fenton also agreed with the swimming pool. Harold Cota agreed with the swimming pool. Bill Flory, Director of Parks.& Recreation — City of San Luis Obispo, reported on the possibility of a state grant to help with the swimming pool. Ione White spoke in support of an olympic -sized swimming pool for the City of San Luis Obispo. Stanley Friga a new resident of the city, stated that he would like to support the council establishing priorities for improvements as such things as sewer, water, fire and police, before such a large expenditure for uses such as a pool for recreation. Jim Gault, Y.M.C.A. Director, felt there was a need for an olympic -sized pool for the young people of San Luis Obispo. Karen Wood, Arroyo Grande resident, spoke in support of the City of San Luis Obispo buying the new pool to support the county swim club. She felt the present pool was unhealthy and that San Luis Obispo being the biggest city should provide the pool for the use of county residents. Mayor Schwartz declared the public hearing closed. The City Council then discussed the comments of the public involving the swimming pool. Councilman Petterson stated he could see no way to finance a pool in this fiscal year. Councilman Graham felt there was no money in 1976 -77 for funds,.bu_t felt the city should build a pool in 1977 -78. Councilman Gurnee felt the council should be aware of the fact that the . Planning Commission has approved a general plan that will double the size of the city which would require spending of multimillions of dollars just to accommodate this growth with hardware such as sewer and water and little of anything to improve the quality of 'life in the city. City Council Minutes April 19, 1976 Page 3 Councilman Norris felt the council had done a good job in keeping up with growth in the city. He would support the development of the pool if the swim club could come up with funds that the taxpayers could.match. He would also support a softball development by interested groups. On motion.of Councilman Petterson, seconded by Councilman Graham, the following resolution was introduced: Resolution No. 3037 (1976 Series), a resolution of the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo adopting a revised Capital Improvement Program for the fiscal year 1976 -77 and several years thereafter. Passed and adopted on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmen Petterson, Graham, Norris, Gurnee and Mayor Schwartz NOES: None ABSENT: None 2. At this time the City Council considered the final passage of Ordinance No. 668 (1976 Series); ordinance of the City of San Luis Obispo amending the Municipal Code by adding Article II, Chapter 5, Part III, Dwelling Unit Construction Tax, to the Municipal Code. Rob Strong,.Community Development Director, reviewed for the council and 1 public present, the provisions provided in Ordinance No. 668. Mayor Schwartz declared the public hearing open. Gerard Parsons stated he was opposed to the proposed ordinance which was just one more step by the City Council to stop construction in the City of San Luis Obispo. Stanley Friga felt the tax was unfair, undemocratic and too high. He felt it was just another way to discourage development of homes in the city. He felt the tax was discriminatory and unfairly levied. He felt this was just another attempt by the City Council at no- growth. Al Ingersoll opposed to levying this new tax. He felt it was unfair and discriminatory and while its stated goal was admirable, in practice it was unfair and funds would not be used in the area that the tax was taken from. He felt the city's new general plan does not even show needs as described in support of the ordinance. He also felt the city was wrong in trying to apply national standards for parks in this little community. He also felt the proposed ordinance was based on unconstitutional, infeasible facts. Clell Whelchell, resident, opposed to tax. He felt it was unfair to property owners who have paid taxes for years in the city without benefit. He felt this tax would discourage development of parks, not help them. Mike DeNeve, Manager.- San Luis Obispo Building Contractors' Association, stated he opposed the imposition of this tax on the people of San Luis Obispo. He still felt the tax was unfair and would not do what the council was imposing the tax for, but now that it was advertised, he felt that final passage was inevitable. He then hoped that the council would protect the funds collected for park development and not spend on other city activities as-has been done in the past. Mayor Schwartz felt that preparing a priority list for capital items was very difficult in making decisions involving the health, safety and welfare of its citizens and also the quality of life in the city such as parks, pools, etc. He gave an example of the mandated programs by the State of California such as a sewer plant enlargement, etc. He stated he would support a grant application for a pool to be constructed. On motion.of Councilman Petterson, seconded by Councilman Graham, the following resolution was introduced: Resolution No. 3037 (1976 Series), a resolution of the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo adopting a revised Capital Improvement Program for the fiscal year 1976 -77 and several years thereafter. Passed and adopted on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmen Petterson, Graham, Norris, Gurnee and Mayor Schwartz NOES: None ABSENT: None 2.

City Council Minutes April 19, 1976 Page 4 Mayor Schwartz declared the public hearing closed. Rob Strong submitted information reflecting some of the criticism leveled at the new tax proposal. Councilman Gurnee stated he was in support of the tax, felt it was fairer than the Quimby Act funds. He felt this tax was one way to get new- . comers to pay for needed parks. He felt the rate was too low, but it could be increased later if needed. Councilman Norris stated he felt that some of the statistics submitted on park inventory by staff were incomplete and inadequate and were used only to support the need for the tax, which he felt would be used to expand Laguna Lake Land, the golf course, etc. He was not in favor of the proposed tax and felt it was unfair to add this tax on new dwelling units when it was so difficult to get a house to live in. He stated rents, taxes, etc. would go up to help pay for more money for the City Council to spend. He was opposed to tax. J Councilman Petterson stated that he agreed in general with Councilman Norris's statements. He also agreed that it would add rents and take on taxes on all units in the city. He felt that this might upgrade parks was debatable. Councilman Graham was in support of the ne_w tax. He felt the city needed newer, better, bigger and well - maintained parks. He also felt that the city -park tax should be increased.to get better parks. He also felt newcomers should pay for park expansion. Mayor Schwartz stated he was in favor of the new tax to improve the city parks and to acquire more park land for city residents and visitors. He then listed the major park improvements put in by the City Council in the past 6 or 7 years. On motion of Councilman Graham, seconded by.Councilman Gurnee, Ordinance No. I 668 was introduced for final passage. Passed and finally adopted on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmen Graham, Gurnee, Petterson.and Mayor Schwartz NOES: Councilman Norris ABSENT: None 3. Memorandum from Rob Strong, Director of Community Development, asking Council consideration regarding planned development 0528, Brent Dickens, applicant, to rezone.668 and 672 Serrano Drive and 88 through 98 Palomar.Drive from R -1 to PD R -1 to construct 18 condominium single family units and 5 single family lots. Rob Strong submitted the Planning Commission recommendation stating that the Planning Commission had reviewed the newest proposal at their regular meeting held on April 6, 1976. The Planning Commission concurred with the staff opinion that the project as proposed is. unacceptable. The commission confirmed the previous determination that the entry /exit.to the attached units should be on Serrano Drive. The developer presented new idea at the Planning Commission meeting:. Closure of Palomar Drive at Luneta Drive. The commission discussed this possibility, however, they did not reach a concensus on where or how Palomar might be closed. The commission did feel that this idea was worth exploring and suggested the council request the staff to study it further. The commission felt that the closure of Palomar would enhance the desirability of a Serrano Drive entry /exit and, therefore, forwarded the following recommendations: City Council Minutes April 19, 1976 Page 5 A. The original project proposal should be approved utilizing an entry /exit from Serrano Drive. B. The project should be approved subject to the 16 conditions listed in the previous report to the Planning Commission, plus two aiditional conditions: 17: The applicant shall provide three spaces for parking of recreational vehicles. Parking of recreational vehicles shall be limited to authorized spaces. A screening plan shall be provided for such spaces, to be approved as part of a preliminary review by the Architectural Review Commission. 18. Construction and occupancy of single family detached homes on individual lots shall occur concurrently with the construction and before occupancy of the condominium units subject to the approval of the Director of Community Development. Councilman Norris stated he objected to the recommendations of the staff which were the same'ones that the council.had turned down time - and -time again. He wanted to know who was in charge, the City Council, the Planning Commission or staff. He felt the staff should listen when the council spoke and take action on the issue on that basis. Mayor Schwartz declared the public hearing closed. Bill Troutner stated he disagreed with Rob Strong's comments as the Planning Commission really did not get council's action and input as far as this development was concerned. He felt that this was really a development being pushed: by Mr. Strong and not by the Planning Commission. Councilman Norris suggested that .the council send this back to the Planning ' Commission with a memorandum from the council to appear before the Planning Commission to state the council's action. J. Houser, Palomar Street, was opposed to closing Palomar and forcing traffic on Serrano. Harold Wilson, Serrano Drive, stated that he and his neighbors were still opposed to all traffic being placed on Serrano from this development. John King, .property owner, felt the original development with access to Serrano was the most viable and.made more sense than any of the proposed accesses by the staff. He felt the proposed access to Serrano is what made the Dickens' development a decent, feasible. residential development. He asked the City Council to decide tonight as it was becoming quite expensive to continue without some decision from the City Council. He asked the council: 1. to accept the original plan as presented. 2. Not to close Palomar. 3. Require one access. 4. Drop consideration of the development completely. ' H. Wilson stated at no time did he agree with John King to use Serrano for access to the tract. Arthur Stringer, Serrano Drive, was still opposed to allowing this development to use Serrano for access. He felt the street was now too narrow and dangerous, etc. City Council Minutes April 19, 1976 Page '6 Brian Suffred, 655 Serrano, opposed the serrano access and felt all the traffic should go out on Broad Street. Jim Shipping, Serrano /Palomar, opposed to access on Palomar. Supported Broad Street access only. Mrs. Strain, Serrano Drive, was opposed to allowing access to Serrano Drive. Felt all the traffic should be pushed onto Broad Street. J. Houser, Palomar, would support access taken to Broad Street. Wayne Peterson, City Engineer, reminded the City Council not to consider closing any streets as one closure puts traffic on someone elses residential street. Mayor Schwartz declared the public hearing closed. Councilman Norris stated he supported access from the development to Palomar Drive and would support the proposal. Councilman Gurnee felt it was a good project, would support access and was the best alternative, although he could support other types. Felt closure of Palomar was a separate issue and should be considered at another time. Councilman Petterson would accept Serrano. access. Felt it was not an easy decision, but felt that this was the best. Felt the city should explore future closing of Palomar. Councilman Graham felt the council should look into the possible closing of Palomar at this time, but based on the Planning Commission's recommendation he would support access to Serrano. Mayor Schwartz felt the council should consider. -the neighbors feelings and that some other development could be pursued with better access to either Broad or Palomar. On motion of Councilman Graham, seconded by Councilman Gurnee, the following ordinance was introduced: Ordinance No. 669 (1976 Series), an ordinance of the City of San Luis Obispo amending official zone map to rezone property at.Serrano and Palomar Drive subject to 18 conditions established by the Planning Commission. Introduced and passed to print on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmen Graham, Gurnee, Petterson NOES: Councilman Norris and Mayor Schwartz ABSENT: None 4 -A. The City Council considered the recommendation of D.F. Romero, Director of Public Services for the Street Improvement Priorities. for the 1976 -77 fiscal year. He stated that the report includes the type of repair or renovation based on their experience and considered the least improvement that would provide a satisfactory and relatively permanent repair. Kenneth E. Schwartz, Mayor, submitted for the council's consideration as a result of the council study session of Friday, April 16, and the tour taken by the council to view the street improvement priorities presented to the council by the Public Services Department. He then made a list of recommendation for the council's final action on priorities. In reviewing his suggested list he stated that the list was only a list of priorities and that it.actually would not determine the number of projects that could be accomplished that would come with the adoption of the budget for next year. City Council Minutes April 19, 1976 Page 7 He also reminded the council.that in touring on Friday, they noted several triangular islands that could be improved. There were a couple in the Foothill - Chorro intersection, there is a rather large one at Madonna & Higuera Street intersection. He suggested the council set aside funds to improve these islands.
