Terry Sanville then reviewed in detail the provisions of the guideline manual for the Downtown Rehabilitation Program. Rich Chubon, Director of the Housing Authority, stated he concurred with the guidelines as presented by staff and that the City Housing Authority was anxious to serve the city in any capacity they can.

He reviewed the Housing Authority's responsibility in administering the program and also submitted an annual budget for the Housing Authority's use. The proposed budget is drawn in line with rough estimates of administering costs spelled out of the City's Block Grant Program. Staff estimated that it would take about $50,000.00 to cover the cost of administration for a three -year rehabilitation program. The actual cost of the program of course will depend on how long it takes to distribute the federal money. Also it should be made clear that the administration costs will be paid for by the Federal Block Grant; no city money will be involved.

APPROVED BY COUNCIL ON: 1/20/81 J.H. itzpatiick, City Clerk M I N U T E S ADJOURNED MEETING OF THE CITY COUNCIL CITY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO TUESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1980 - 7:30 P.M. COUNCIL CHAMBERS, CITY HALL, 990 PALM STREET I Pledge Invocation by Reverend Wayne Peirson, Calvary Baptist Roll Call Councilmembers Present: Melanie Billig, Alan Bond, Ron Dunin, Gerald Munger and Mayor Lynn R. Cooper Absent: None City Staff Present: Lee Walton, Administrative Officer; George Thacher, City Attorney; J.H. Fitzpatrick, City Clerk; Henry Engen, Community Development Director; Roger Neuman, Police Chief; D.F. Romero, Public Services Director 407 11. At this time the City Council held a public hearing to consider an appeal of a decision by the Community Development_ Director to acquire a focused environmental impact report on a General Plan Amendment located at 1772 Calle Joaquin Street. The general plan amendment requested would change the zoning from conservation /agriculture to tourist commercial; Climate One, Inc., applicants. City Council Minutes December 16, 1980 - 7:30 p.m. Page 2 Councilman Bond left the meeting due to a possible conflict of interest. Henry Engen, Community Development Director, stated that the request by the applicants would extend the urban reserve line about 2500' to the southwest, and phase the land use designation from agriculture /conservation to tourist/ commercial on approximately 20 acres of property. He continued that this prominent 100 ft. high property is at the southerly entryway to the city on Highway 101. Changing the plan on the scale proposed raised serious aesthetic, planning and service issues that led to the present limited tourist land use designation. The appeal should be denied in order to provide appropriate information to make a reasoned decision on the request. George Thacher, City Attorney, reviewed for the City Council the requirements of the E.I.R. involvement in various projects, public and /or private; and also how the determination of a project and need for an E.I.R. is made. Mayor Cooper declared the public hearing open. GlennaDeane Dovey urged that an E.I.R. should be prepared on all general plan changes. She felt that this particular site "Hob Nob Restaurant" is very sensitive, and needs an E.I.R. She urged the City Council to deny the appeal. Allen Settle urged the focused E.I.R. for this general plan amendment request. He felt the property owner should have an E.I.R. prepared at this time to save time and money as he would have to have one prepared anyway. He urged the council to deny the appeal. Vic Montgomery, engineer for the developer, appeared before the City.Council on behalf of the appeal not to require an E.I.R. on this general plan develop- ment. He felt it was wrong to require an E.I.R. before a proposal had been set in motion before the city. He felt that the first things that must happen is the change in zoning in the general plan so that the property owner can then, if they wish, prepare a plan for that proposed use. Either the constraints of the land use designation, he felt an E.I.R. should come at the time a project is submitted and at that time an E.I.R. would consider the entire program. He concluded that to have an E.I.R. prepared at this time would be used to deny any project regardless of what the proposal was. He urged the council to uphold the appeal. Mayor Cooper declared the public hearing closed. Councilman Dunin felt that he had problems with this appeal. He did not know which was fair, having an E.I.R. now or waiting until a project had been prepared for the property. He would support the council policies on hillsides. Councilwoman Billig felt the property owner should prepare a focused E.I.R. now so that the property owner and city would know the potential uses of the property and any future use they may wish to make of it. She felt in this way the public, property owner, and council would be able to make education decisions on future developments. She supported a focused E.I.R. as requested by the Community Development Director. Councilman Munger felt that this was an unreasonable request to prepare an E.I.R. as he felt it was an imposition on the property owner to prepare reports without having a project in which to consider. He would support the appeal. Henry Engen again explained to the council the need to have an E.I.R. at the general plan consideration level. Mayor Cooper felt the E.I.R. at the general plan amendment point was wrong as the city would require another E.I.R. when the project was presented for council consideration. He felt two E.I.R.'s on the same project was just a waste of money. On the motion of Councilwoman Billig, seconded by Councilman Dunin, that the City Council uphold the Community Development Director and order an E.I.R. to be prepared. The motion lost on the following vote: City Council Minutes December 16, 1980 - 7:30 p.m. Page 3 AYES: Councilmembers Billig and Dunin NOES: Councilmember Munger and Mayor cooper ABSENT: Councilmember Bond Councilman Bond then returned to the council table. 0 -871 12. At this time the City Council held a public hearing to consider the final passage of Ordinance No. 871, an ordinance of the City of San Luis Obispo amending the official zone map to rezone property at 2877 Broad Street from R -1, R -2 and A /C -40 to R -1 -PD, Cheapskate Hill applicant, John King. Henry Engen, Community Development Director, reviewed the history of this . particular ordinance, prior public hearings that were held, and the conditions established by the City Council in this rezoning portion to this plan develop- ment. Mayor Cooper declared the public hearing open. R.A. Hanff, 569 Lawrence Drive, objected to the development of Tract No. 935 without requiring an E.I.R. He asked for a fee from each house to put in traffic signals at the entrance to the tract on Lawrence Drive. He again reviewed the rain water problems in the past in the Lawrence Drive area. Keith Gurnee, representing the developer, John King, again.reviewed what was being proposed in this development and the action taken by the developer to mitigate objections of adjacent property owners dealing with traffic; drainage, view from their lots, etc. Tom Schumann, 630 Perkins Lane, again brought out what he felt were conflicts of interest from both planning commission members and city councils in voting for this project. Ila Harmon stated she supported the adoption of the ordinance; she felt this type of housing was needed in the city. Keith Gurnee again reviewed what this developer has done to try and mitigate all the neighbors' objections to this development. Don Smith attacked Gurnee for having changed from an environmentalist to a developer; he felt he should not be appearing before the council on these issues. Ron Belben, 566 Lawrence Drive, hoped the council would require the developer to live up to his proposals and to the voncitions of the ordinance. Mayor Cooper declared the public hearing closed. Councilman Munger stated he would support the PD rezoning as it was needed housing in this area, it was a._good development, and the developer was attempting to reach an element of the population that were not getting adequate housing in this community. Councilman Dunin stated he would support the planned development rezoning, felt the cost was adequate and was in an area needed by the city. He felt the city needed much housing. He felt this development was well thought out, felt all objections had been mitigated, and would support and hoped the developer lived up to the promises for affordable housing. Councilwoman Billig stated she would oppose the rezoning, as she can not agree with the findings. She hoped the developer would be successful, but she would still oppose the development. City Council Minutes December 16, 1980 - 7:30 p.m. Page 4 Councilman Bond stated he would support the development, he felt it was good, it provided needed housing in an economic period when people were having a difficult time developing housing. On motion of Councilman Munger, seconded by Councilman Bond, Ordinance No. (1980 series) was introduced for final passage. The ordinance was finally passed on the following roll call vote: 871 AYES: Councilmembers Munger, Bond, Dunin, and Mayor Cooper NOES: Councilmember Billig ABSENT: None 538 13a. At this time the City Council held a public hearing to consider changing • portion of Fletcher Avenue to Bishop Street and also changing the name of • portion of Haskins Street to Florence Avenue. Henry Engen, Community Development Director, stated that the Planning Commission on a 5 - 0 vote recommended that the City Council make the necessary changes to street names as recommended. He felt that these street name changes would not become effective until the proposed new streets in Tract 758, Terrace Hill, were installed. The reason for changing portions of these streets to avoid conflict when Tract 758 is developed. Mayor Cooper declared the public hearing open. No one appeared before the City Council for or against the name changes. Mayor Cooper declared the public hearing closed. 538 13b.

At this time the City Council considered an appeal of Mrs. Stanley Nelson from a decision of the Tree Committee to remove a tree in front of her house located at 1661 Hillcrest Place. Said tree causing sewer damages to the adjacent property and also destroying the curb and gutter in front of the property. D.F. Romero, Public Services Director, stated that the Tree Committee had appeared at 1641 Hillcrest Place where a black acacia tree is located and agreed' -that it be removed. The reason the Tree Committee urged removal were: 1) that the tree was causing severe damage to sidewalk and curb; 2) the tree was too large for the parkway; 3) the treetop type not recommended for street tree planting; 4) the tree damaging itself due to restricted area; 5) the overhanging tree has been hit by passing vehicles; and 6) the tree has a multiple stem which is not normal growth habit. It was also suggested by the committee the tree removal, sidewalk repair, and sewer repair be coordinated so they accomodate each other. D.F. Romero also recommended that the tree be removed. Mrs. Wade, 1641 Hillcrest, appeared before the City Council explaining the funds that she has expended in attempting to keep her sewer lines open which are being damaged by this particular tree. She felt it was wrong to keep a tree that was causing neighbors damage. Councilman Dunin hoped that a compromise could be arrived at, one that would keep the tree but do something to keep the Wade's sewer lines clear. Council - member Billig also was disturbed that if the tree were to come out, she hoped that a decent -sized tree would be placed where it-..was removed. City Council Minutes December 16, 1980 - 7:30 p.m. Page 6 After discussion with Mrs. Wade and Mr. Romero, Councilwoman Billig stated that the tree should be removed and that the city should plant a new one to the satisfaction of both the Wades and the Nelsons. Unfortunately, the tree must be removed but the city should do what it can to help replace an adequately sized tree in its location. Councilman Bond agreed with the removal of the tree and replanting if a mutual type could be arrived at between the adjacent property owners. It was moved by Councilman Munger, seconded by Councilman Bond, that the appeal of Mrs. Nelson be denied, that the city staff's work was to help the Nelsons and the Wades to see if a replacement can be made to the satisfaction of both property owners. Motion carried, all ayes. R 4366 17. At this time the City Council considered an agreement with Emlyn G. Jones to organize, promote, and maintain a program known as the Landlord/ Tenant Inspection Services for the period December 15, 1980 through April 30, 1981. Walt Lambert, Chairman of the Human Relations Commission, submitted a recommendation regarding the landlord /tenant inspection services which they feel will resolve a major problem in the community of requiring relations between the landlord /tenant on refunds to deposits for rent. The program envisions a $25.00 charge by either the tenant or landlord requesting the inspection service. The city would then make the inspection and hopefully both the landlord and tenant would accept. Jack E. Megow, Executive for the Human Relations Commission, reviewed in detail the proposal of the Human Relations Commission and the reason for recommending that Emlyn G. Jones be made the Landlord /Tenant Inspection's Representative for the four -month period. On motion of Councilman Dunin, seconded by Councilwoman Billig, the following resolution was introduced: ' Resolution No. 4366 (1980 series), a resolution of the council of the City of San Luis Obispo approving an agreement between the city and Emlyn G. Jones to organize, promote, and maintain a program known as Landlord /Tenant Inspection Services from December 15, 1980 through April 30, 1981.

At this time the City Council again reviewed the recommendation from the Public Services Director to increase all parking meter rates. Continued from October 28, 1980. D.F. Romero, Public Services Director, again reviewed for the City Council his report of September 25, 1980 dealing with the annual review of the Downtown Parking Program. He stated it was his recommendation that all Alternates la and Items 2, 3, and 4 be approved by the City Council. Item la - convert all meters to double the present rates; Item 2 - delete pennies from meters; Item 3a - install two hour meters on Marsh and Higuera Streets between Carmel and Nipomo Streets; 3b - install two -hour meters on Higuera between Santa Rosa and Toro Streets; 3c - install all -day meters on Marsh between Santa Rosa and Toro; 3d - install two -hour meters in the 600 block of Monterey - Nipomo to Broad; 4a - change eight meters on the east side of Santa Rosa Street between Marsh and Monterey from all day meters to two -hour meters; and 4b - increase the monthly rental fees in parking lot 5 near the main fire station from $12.00 per month to $15.00 per month. D.F. Romero also submitted a memorandum dated 11/19/80, stated that if parking meters on the streets are converted to .20C per hour rate, new revenue will bring in City Council Minutes December 16, 1980 - 7:30 p.m. Page 7 approximately $230,000.00 per year in excess.of expenses. He stated that this recommendation would require conversion of 900 meters at a parts cost of $14,000.00 and labor cost of 670 man - hours. He continued that if all the parking meters both on streets and in parking lots are converted to the .20C per hour rate, new revenue will bring in approximately $390,000.00 a year in excess of expenses.. This would require conversion of 1414 meters at a parts cost of $22,000.00 and a labor cost of 1,060 man - hours. He also stated that he could support the 20C per hour rate for all parking meters in place of recommendation la. Marcel Cote, BIA Parking Committee, stated he felt that the 20C rate in lots and in the core were fair, and possibly 10p in the outlying areas to encourage people to use the outlying areas for.all -day parking. Or he felt that.the BIA could go along with 20(� for all meters if most of the money were used to develop parking. It was moved by Councilman Dunin, seconded by the rate for the meters be established at 20C meters and lOC per hour for all long time met conversion of meters has been completed, that for one year. The only exception will be the would remain at lOC per hour. Cou per ers; the lot icilwoman Billig, that hour for all short time and that at the time the time limits not be enforced next to the museum which Councilman Bond stated he would oppose the motion as he does not want anv additional parking funds to go to the parking structure. He would rather give funds to transit. Motion carried, 4 - 1, Councilman Bond voting no. On the recommendation of the Public Services Director, the City Council, on motion of Councilman Dunin, seconded by Councilwoman Billig, approved Recommendation No. 2 to eliminate pennies from the meters; Items 3 -a, 3 -b, and 3 -c, were deferred for future consideration.
