4.-; TRAFFIC MODIFICATION - MURRAY STREET
Council held a public hearing to consider a request from neighborhood
residents regarding traffic modifications in the Murray-Street area.
Wayne Peterson, City Engineer, reviewed the Council agenda report (file
no. 777) recommending Council take public testimony and direct staff to
investigate removal of stop signs on Broad Street at Murray Street and
6thev alternatives. Additionally; to:direct.staff.to notify the public
as called for in the Circulation Element of the proposed modifications
.to traffic control to be considered by the Council.
Upon question by Councilwoman Dovey regarding the previous traffic
patterns; Mr. Peterson stated Tropicana Village was built in the early
70's and it had-not actually been determined - whether the traffic was
generated more from the students or from people. going to the downtown
area, it would lean towards workers going to the downtown core. He did
not feel that stop signs on alternate streets would help, but rather
that a total restructuring would be required to alleviate a portion of
the problem..
Mayor Billig declared the public hearing open.
John Jenkins, resident for the past eight years, submitted an alterna-
tive proposal which would cul -de -sac Murray Street at Broad. He felt
the student influx was a great deal of the problem. There were many
drunken drivers leaving.-Cal.Poly games and that sort of thing which the
neighbors .had -to contend with: He was concerned that the City was only
trying to keep .traffic flow open, and the residents were concerned with
the safety of children and peace and quiet in their neighborhood. He
suggested using hidden radar..units on a 24 -hour basis and felt primary
problems were noise level. the extensive number of accidents in this
area, trash, parking, and destruction of City property, -i.e., signing,
etc.
Virginia Stoner, 779 Murray.Street-arid a 30.year resident, reviewed past
problems the neighborhood had had regarding preservation of the Palm
trees in-the middle of the .street, fighting construction of Tropicana

and Valentia student housing units. She stated now there is at least
3600 cars traversing this street.. The residents had been.assured ,
parking was not going to be a problem when these student housing units
were built; this -is not the case. Students have mowed over.trees• that
neighbors had put in the area and caused other difficulties: '
Viola Calle,20 year resident, spoke of the problems since Tropicana -had
been built with regard to accidents, cars being driven through hedges
and residential homes and hitting parked,cars along the street.
Bill Clark, 706 Murray Street living at the corner'of Murray and Broad
Street, spoke against the immense traffic, cleaning the debris, cars
parked in front of his home and would urge the Council to find some
method to mitigate the number of,cars traversing the street.
Tim Weston, 765 Murray Street and the father of four young children, was
primarily concerned with the safety issues and would urge Council to
consider at least putting up,signs stating•.children.were at.play...;
Jacob Feldman, 711 Murray Street, urged Council'.s.support of a cul -de -sac
on Murray at Broad Street. He did not feel this would represent a
problem for public safety personnel -as they could go over the curbed
cul -de -sac in the event of an emergency. He did feel there was a
disproportionate share of traffic on Murray Street.
Ken Colton, 75 Benton Way, urged the Council to keep in mind the residents
on Benton Way and not to funnel any more traffic there in an attempt to
alleviate the congestion on Murray Street.
Dave Krumpe, 745 Murray Street,.spoke in..support of some mitigating.',
measure for Murray Street.
Katherine Fuess; 1135 Prefumo Street, felt Murray Street was a victim of
its own beauty. People traverse that street because it is beautiful and
a nicer street to take than those near by..
Keith Gurnee, 108 Broad Street, -and a resident for 10 years, was opposed
to the staff recommendation of removing the stop signs. He felt with
the cul -de -sac at Murray you would only transfer the problem to "another
street. He was primarily concerned though with the loss of•a stop sign.
He submitted an alternative proposal which would maximize friction,
discouraging.people by rerouting traffic through the islands on Murray
Street. His proposal would add parking, landscaping, and discourage
traffic. He felt this could be used as a pilot program as the City has
many areas with similar problems. :,He suggested the,City-pay.for..the
concrete changes; the residents to be responsible for the maintenance
and cost of the landscaping.
Richard Schmidt, 112 Broad Street and a 10 year resident, was opposed to
emphasis being placed on Broad and Chorro as arterial routes and felt
that if the signals were not so long at Foothill and Santa Rosa, more
traffic would not be diverted into this residential neighborhood. Large
trucks are using them as well,•which he felt would be relieved if the
City established regular truck routes.
John Phillips, 741 Meinecke Street, was opposed to the.traffic.quality
more than the numbers. He-urged the Council.to.look at.the overall .
neighborhood, not just the problems connected with Murray Street.
Peg Pinard, resident living on the northern portion of Broad Street,
felt the major problem was that traffic was not being kept on the:,--.
intended main routes.
Robert Barrows, 770 Meinecke Street, was primarily concerned with the
large commercial vehicles speeding on Meinecke.
Paul Weston, 765 Murray Street, stated the sign at Benton and Murray was
only hit as early as this morning.

Mayor Billig declared the public hearing closed.
Councilman Settle agreed the truck routes would not entirely solve the
pioblem but should be initiated. He would suggest directing staff to
look'at the possibilities of removing the stop signs on Broad at Murray
aiid'•look at other alternatives, i.-e., the cul -de -sac, public safety as
far as Police.and Fire are concerned, etc.
Councilwoman Dovey felt this problem was not unique in that there are
many other areas of town having thv same problem..- -She agreed, in part,
with some of the previous speakers in that the engineering principles do
not always support everyday'living'. She would like,to see staff look at
other alternatives including speed bumps, stop signs, etc. In particular,
she would.like to see more emphasis placed on the usage of arterial
streets.
Councilman Dunin agreed to have staff explore other alternatives keeping
in mind the same problem would be surfacing in other neighborhoods as
well.
Councilman Griffin complimented the residents..on the positive approach
they had taken to the problem. He agreed Murray Street was unique and
would support Councilman Settle's direction to staff with regard-.to
exploration of other alternatives. This was a long - standing problem. He
would like report by staff to come back within 30 to 45 days.
After brief discussion it was moved by Mayor Billig, seconded by Council -
man'Griffin,.to direct -staff to examine`all possible alternatives for
controlling access on local streets and looking at specific design
standards that would help to implement the Council's policy in the
Circulation Element with respect to:local streets, and report back
within 45 days.

Page 10
Toby Ross, Community Development Director, reviewed the Council agenda
report (file no. 463). He stated that on August 31 the Council had
considered many of the items. Some were tentatively decided while
others,.were continued with request.for.staff to prepare more infor-
mation. That information was now included in the packet, and he was
prepared to go through each item for consensus by the Council. He
recommended.that after decisions have been-reached, the Council should
set a date for the introduction of the ordinance to revise the Regulations.
1L' Temporary Uses
After brief discussion and upon general consensus, Council agreed to
support staff recommendations that temporary sales be limited to the
- types-of retail sales allowed:or allowed with administrative use permit
'approval-in the zone. This eliminates most temporary sales in motels,
those in the Veterans Memorial Building, and one of-the cut - flower
'vendor locations.now in operation. .Further,.temporary.sales would be
defined as those occurring on less than 90 calendar days in any calendar
year. A Grandfather clause regulating each type of use regulation would
not be required. (5 -0)
2.�.Home-Occupations
After-brief discussion and upon general consensus,.Council agreed to
approve staff and-Planning Commission.recommendation that the Community
Development Director be given authority to require administrative
hearings for home occupation applications which are now.issued.over the
counter And to:require-a.five -day notice prior.to:issuance.of.a permit
(5 -0).
3;1,Drive- through.Facilities:
Toby Ross, Community Development Director, stated the Planning Commission
had discussed prohibiting drive - through facilities but - decided with..
specific criteria and standards, there might be cases where such facili-
ties-would be acceptable. Staff agreed and had no additional material
to offer:-.
After brief discussion and upon general consensus, that staff be directed
to re- evaluate the drive - through facilities looking at the total prohibi-
tion of such facilities. (3 -2)
4r;:: Vending: Machines
The. Planning Commission had recommended requiring administrative use
permit approval for vending machines as well as standards concerning
visibility, pedestrian circulation, and area occupied. The Commission
felt newspaper racks, mechanical rides, telephone booths, and automated
tellers:should:be included in the definition of vending machines. The
staff did not feel that regulations were needed-and felt the standards
would be sufficient. They also would;not:support regulating.telephone
booths and automated tellers.
After brief discussion and upon general consensus, Council agreed to
support-,.the-Planning Commission's recommended criteria including the:
four::standards with the elimination of telephone booths and.automated
tellers in the definition of vending machines. (3 -2)
5. Utility Company Offices in the PF Zone
Toby:Ross, :stated the Planning Commission:and staff recommended allowing
utility company offices, medical offices and organization offices,and
meeting areas in the:PF:zone. All:those approvals would,be by.use
permit by either the Community Development Director or the Planning
Commission. As an alternative, the Council could allow more rezone PF
areas.to.other appropriate zones and eliminating the PF.zone.from the
Regulations. While nearly all public facilities allowed in the PF zone
are also allowed in some other zones, a few are not. These would have
City Council Minutes
Tuesday, September 21, 1982 - 7:00 p.m.
Page 11
to be added to other zones as allowed uses or treated as exempt or
legal, non - conforming uses.
Councilman Settle stated he could support Planning Commission and staff
recommendation.
Councilman Dunin could support an alternate means of eliminating the PF
zone in its entirety.
Upon question, Toby Ross stated the elimination of the PF zone would
effect 37 properties which would require future decisions on the rezoning
of each of those properties by the Council.
Councilwoman Dovey felt that public facilities should be those proper-
ties that are actually publicly owned and used soley by the public; this
could possibly include private educational uses but remove those projects
that are semi- public in nature, i.e., utility company offices, medical
offices and some organization offices.
Councilman Griffin disagreed as he felt the use permit process in place
would not destroy the intent, and there would be adequate safeguards
against allowing those types of offices which would not be appropriate.
Councilman Settle agreed with Councilman Griffin that administrative
approval with the use permit process was sufficient.
Upon question, Toby Ross stated the properties probably would be zoned 0
which would actually be less restrictive in the case of South Higuera
than the present zone.
Council continued its discussion and on a 3 -2 consensus directed staff
to re- evaluate the PF zone with the intent to eliminate it entirely.
6. Florists in the C -N Zone
After brief discussion and upon general consensus, Council agreed to
support Planning Commission and staff recommendation to allow florists
in the C -N zone. (5 -0)
7. Retail Sales Categories

support Planning Commission and staff recommendation to include those
types of businesses under a newly defined category of "General Retail
Sales" and based on regulations on floor area size classes. (5 -0).

support Planning Commission and staff recommendation to approve the
matrix made part of the agenda packet (5 -0).
Minor Changes
Upon general consensus Council agreed to approve the minor changes and
revisions as recommended by staff and Planning Commission (see pages
7 -14 and 7 -15 of the Council agenda packet).

wished the Council to be made aware of but which did not result in a
recommendation for change. The Council took each of the 11 items
