She stated that because some of the key residential streets are very old and could bear the traffic some 10 to 20 years ago, it is becoming increasingly difficult today due to changing patterns and population. She stated the Circulation Element does provide for truck routes, signs have been posted and police patrols should be enforcing those routes. Another constructive solution would be to heavily police residential neighborhoods and she urged the residents to report noise to the Police Department. She felt the speed on Chorro Street was a problem and was in favor of placing speed humps on Broad Street and Chorro on an experimental basis. She also felt the traffic signals at Foothill, Chorro and Broad intersections should be looked at. Take the stop signs off of Broad at Murray Streets and see if that helps the neighborhood. She felt the comments regarding quantity as opposed to quality were very important. She also stated that a police officer who lives on Murray has been given permission to take his motorcycle home at night and felt this would make a difference in the number of violations occuring. Councilman Settle questioned the Police Chief if a "no right turn" sign on Ramona at Broad Street could be a possibility. Chief Neuman, Police Chief, stated that placing a "no right turn" sign on Ramona would be a good alternative but would take some monitored enforcement. He stated it would probably take about three months to gain a reasonable degree of compliance and it would be time consuming and costly to place an officer-there. Upon general consensus, Council directed staff to take a serious look at the Foothill Boulevard, Chorro and Broad Street intersections with the idea of changing the traffic signal patterns to facilitate a smoother flow on Foothill; place speed humps on an experimental basis on Broad and Chorro Streets with an analysis to come back in one year; remove the stop signs on Broad and Murray and analyze the effects on the neighborhood and report back in one year; increase policing of those neighborhoods for truck traffic violations, speeding and excessive noise due to partying, etc. Also, analyze the intersection at Ramona for possible options to prohibit traffic from turning right onto Broad, with staff to report back. There being no further business to come before the City Council, Mayor Billig adjourned the meeting'at 9:10 p.m. to April 5, 1983, Council meeting.

CONFIRMING COSTS OF SIDEWALK CONSTRUCTION Council held a public hearing to consider a resolution confirming costs for sidewalk construction conducted under the 1911 Act. Dave Romero, Public Works Director, briefly reviewed the agenda report (see file 4533) recommending Council adoption of the amended exhibit in their packet. He explained this was an ongoing City program which included posting of defective sidewalks requesting property owners to make repairs and hiring contractors to conduct the work where the property owners failed to make the repairs as required. The resolution reflected work conducted in the areas of Casa, Murray, Hathway area and various areas of Old Town. He explained that one protest was received this evening and if it was the Council's pleasure this could be continued for staff report although he was prepared to report on it this evening. On motion of Councilman Dunin, seconded by Councilman Settle, to continue action concerning Mr. Raymond W. Solomon's property located at 770 Islay Street to the next Council meeting for further report from staff: Motion carried, all ayes. City Council Minutes Tuesday, April 5, 1983 - 7:00 p.m. Page 5 Mayor Billig declared the public hearing open. Mr. John Ewan, 1071 Islay Street, questioned the repair cost on his property as he felt that the sidewalk damage was a direct result of trees which were taken out years ago but had been placed there originally by the City and the sidewalk was damaged as a result. After brief discussion it was moved by Councilman Settle, seconded by Councilwoman Dovey, to continue the request by Mr. John Ewan concerning his property.at 1,071 Islay Street to the next regular Council meeting for further report by staff. Motion carried, all ayes. Mayor Billig declared the public hearing closed. On motion of Councilman Griffin, seconded by Councilman Settle, the following resolution was introduced: Resolution No. 5083, (1983 Series), a resolution of the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo confirming costs of sidewalks repaired under the 1911 Act, with Exhibit "A" as amended. Passed and adopted on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmembers, Griffin, Settle, Dovey, Dunin and Mayor Billig NOES: None ABSENT: None 2. FINAL PASSAGE OF ORDINANCE 954 - PURCHASING CONTROL SYSTEM Council held a public hearing to consider the final passage of Ordinance No. 954, an ordinance to provide for the establishment of a purchasing control system and a resolution to establish review requirements for the formal bid, proposal and selection process used in purchasing and contracting activities, with report back within one year of implementation. David Ion, Financial Analyst, briefly reviewed the agenda report (file #167) stating that the ordinance and resolution construct the statutory framework of the purchasing control system. The ordinance defines the basic requirements of the system but the specific parameters such as dollar amounts and approval authorities were provided in the resolution and the procedures contained in the purchasing manual. Basically it provided for formal bids and selection procedures for all professional services, supplies and equipment costing in excess of $10,000 and for Public Works projects in excess of $5,000. The Council would approve contracts for professional services in excess of $10,000, for Public Works projects in excess of $25,000 and for supplies and equipment purchases with a unit cost of fiscal year aggregate in excess of $50,000. He stated that the Council would approve bid specifications and cost estimates prior to solicitation of bids for supplies, equipment and Public Works projects. If, however, the purchase was not found to be of sensitive or exceptional community interest the contract could be awarded by the Administrative Officer, without additional Council approval if the selected bid was less than or equal to the.approved cost estimate and there were no substantive specification changes. For hiring of professional services, Council would authorize contract negotiation and approve formal contract prior to award. Mayor Billig declared the public hearing open. No one spoke for or against the proposed ordinance or resolution. Mayor Billig declared the public hearing closed. After brief discussion it was moved by Councilman Griffin, seconded by Councilman Dunin, to give final passage to Ordinance No. 954 for the establishment of the purchasing control system. Finally passed on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Griffin, Dunin, Dovey, Settle and Mayor Billig City Council Minutes Tuesday, April 5, 1983 - 7:00 p.m. Page 6 NOES: None ABSENT: None On motion of Councilman Griffin, seconded by Councilman Dunin, the following resolution was introduced: Resolution No. 5084 (1983 Series), a resolution of the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo establishing purchasing review requirements with report back within one year of implementation.' Passed and adopted on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Griffin, Dunin, Dovey, Settle and Mayor Billig NOES: None ABSENT: None 3. FIXED ASSET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM Council considered a resolution to approve an agreement between the City and Marshall and Stevens, Inc., for the establishment of a fixed asset management system. Rudy Muravez, Finance Director, reviewed the agenda report (file #201) and was asking the Council to adopt the resolution. He explained that the total cost for Phase I would be $16,000 broken down as follows: $5,500 from the Water Fund; $5,500 Sewer Fund; $5,000 General Fund. Phase II would be performed cooperatively by City personnel, trained and monitored by Marshall and Stevens at an estimated cost of $8,000. The annual evaluation and report preparation services would be purchased from Marshall and Stevens at a cost of $1,500 to $2,000 until such time as the City could implement its own automated system. The need for a fixed management system was identified in the last two financial audit reports by Peat, Marwick, Mitchell & Co., the City's financial auditors. They had also indicated that the successful completion of Phase I for 1982 -83 reporting purposes would remove the fixed asset qualification from the audit report. The recommended firm had prepared such an asset report in 1976 conducting a complete physical inventory, cost and evaluation of all fixed assets and prepared automated property accounting records for all buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment. However, there was no maintenance of a perpetual control system, thus resulting in a qualified opinion in annual financial audits. Council expressed their support for the establishment of a fixed asset management system with continuity to keep the system updated. After brief discussion it was moved by Councilman Settle, seconded by Councilwoman Dovey, that the following resolution be introduced: Resolution No. 5085 (1983 Series), a resolution of the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo approving agreement with Marshall and Stevens for the establishment of a fixed asset system. Passed and adopted on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Settle, Dovey, Dunin, Griffin and Mayor:Billig NOES: None ABSENT: None 4. ARC GUIDELINES Council considered a resolution which would approve the amended guidelines for Architectural Review. Toby Ross, Community Development Director, reviewed the Council Agenda report (file #403). He explained that the package in the packet was not in the final published form. He was only asking Council to review for the content of the text itself. The most substantial change was in format, bringing the latter part to the front and including the ASLA recommendation. The "How the Process Works" section and the requirements for project City Council Minutes Tuesday, April 5, 1983 - 7:00 p.m. Page 7' submittal will make it easier for emphasis and easy reference by being moved, to the front of the document. The guidelines now reflect several changes to'the ARC's purview and procedures; including new sections on minor or incidental determinations, demolitions, sensitive sites, and revised landscape /site development requirements. Changes and additions have been made to the "schematic review ". He would not intend for the booklet to come back for Council approval. Randy Dettmer, Vice Chairman of the Architectural Review Commission, spoke in support of the staff report and urged Council's approval. Councilman Dunin questioned the Appeals Section on page 4 -8 of the report. He wished to remove the two sentences which referenced that "An appeal may be based only on inconsistencies between ARC action and the procedures and criteria established by law or stated in this booklet. The alleged inconsis- tencies must be explained in detail in the appeal." He would prefer to have this struck and replaced-by a sentence with the language that "All decisions of the ARC are appealable to the City.Council ". This would be consistent with the other advisory bodies and in accordance with state law. The Council then discussed at some length the possibility of softening this paragraph, and the pros and cons of such an action. After discussion it was moved by Councilman Griffin, seconded by Councilman Settle, to adopt the following resolution: Resolution No. 5086 (1983 Series), a resolution of the Council of the City of San Luis Obispo approving the amended guidelines for the Architectural Review as recommended by staff. Passed and adopted on the following roll call-vote: AYES: Councilmembers Griffin, Settle; Dovey and Mayor Billig NOES: Dunin ABSENT: None Councilman Griffin felt that the style of the writing was not appropriate for thisitype of document; as the style was a bit colloquial. Staff to work with appropriate individuals such as the Chairperson to remove much of it..-. . 5. ENFORCEMENT PRIORITIES AND PROCEDURES Council considered an enforcement.priorities and procedures policy concerning zoning and sign regulations. Toby Ross, Community Development Director, reviewed the agenda report (file 11424) and was recommending that Council review and concur with the zoning code enforcement program currently in use. He stated that there were two principal reasons for the policy: 1) the staff time available for zoning enforcement has fluctuated, and•2) no routine legal or administrative procedures have been used. The priorities and procedures proposed would help to.correct the violations of the city ordinance and include priorities for allocation of staff time:forr enforcement and-establishment of administra- tive and legal procedures which would help to streamline the-process. Charles Long, President of Motel & Hotel Association,.stated he had met with the.Motel Association - concerning the.cost of the sign enforcement which had exceeded $1,000,000 in their opinion. He then read into the record his letter to the City Council as follows: "Subject: Cost of enforcement of the 1977 Sign Regulations. Tonight, the Motel Association, along with other concerned business people.would like to inform the.general public and this council on the tremendous costs that have been paid out..in the enforcement of the 1977 Sign Regulations. To-date we estimate:that.the costs to the taxpayers of San Luis Obispo, who foot the bill for all planning and enforcing here in City Council Minutes Tuesday, April 5, 1983 - 7:00 p.m. Page 8 City Hall; plus the cost to the business community who is'the target of this most unwarranted.set of regulations. Our group .figures there has been or will be spent One Million Dollars PLUS.. on this unneeded Sign Regulations. The Cost here in City Hall, • for the last 5 years is a staggering figure of around $400,000.00 (Four Hundred Thousand Dollars), Taxpayers' money.. Costs as follows: 1. City staff to write the 1967 sign regulations, which by the .way were never enforced. 2. Complete rewrite in 1977 of the Sign Regulations, then some changes in 1980. 3. The salary of a person just to enforce.the Sign Regulations;. salary of $20,000.00 per year, for 5 years is $100,000.00. 4. Persons hired to go out and take pictures of every sign.in town, average of about 4 signs per business. 5. Cost of the Polaroid Film about $1,500.00 6. Add to all this, staff time to catalog each business in .their own folders, staff time to add up the number of square feet in each sign, and add all signs together for total signage per business. 7. Letters & pictures to each business, showing and telling them of their violations. Letters of this type cost at least $5.00 to write, plus the cost of postage. 8. Not to mention the time consumed by the ARC.Committee, with 2 city staff members.at the meetings.. The sign enforcer plus one other.city staffer. 9. Not to mention the cost and frustration to the business community. Our estimate of the total cost to theltaxpayers and the business community of One Million Dollars Plus, only covers about 60% of the Signs in Town, that have become legal by paying a permit fee and going before the ARC and having them OK your old signs. Kind of a STING operation. In most all violations, the city had lost the records of permits issued years ago. Is the further enforcement of the Sign Regulations WORTH the TAX DOLLARS that already have been spent, plus the added cost that will be incurred to enforce the remaining nonconforming signs. There are other areas in this city where these tax dollars should be spent: 1. Replacing old water lines that are continually.springing. leaks. 2. Sewer lines that are old and inadequate to handle the flow of waste. 3. Sewer plant that needs enlarging. 4. Streets that need resurfacing and maintenance. The present City Council has shown concern in cutting down on . waste in government, and we as really concerned citizens and Tax Payers, make the following recommendations to help toward:this concern. 1. That the further enforcement of the extremely costly Sign Regulations of 1977 be discontinued. 2. That the provisions of the 1977 Sign Regulations be applicable to all signs constructed or altered AFTER the effective date of 1977. 3. That all C -T Zones have the same allowable standards. 4. There are other parts of the sign regulations that need altering. In closing, we would like to offer our services and recommendations to the planning dept., in helping to make some changes in the Sign Regulations, that we think will be beneficial to all concerned parties. This Sign Regulations of 1977 has been a thorn in the side of City Council and the Business.Community since it was adopted. This Council can do something about that thorn, just by making the provisions of the 1977 Sign Regulations 1 1 1 City Council Minutes Tuesday, April 5, 1983 - 7:00 p.m. Page 9 applicable to all signs constructed or altered AFTER the effective date of 1977." Toby Ross responded that the one million dollar figure was exceptionally high in his opinion considering the Community Development Department's budgets for the last five years has not exceeded two million dollars and that -the sign enforcement staff person's time was only approximately 80% enforcement and that figure will be drastically reduced by the end of this year. The total figure probably would not exceed $20,000 for total enforcement. Councilman Griffin stated that he would like the document to be made available as a public document in more readable language. Councilwoman Dovey.suggested.that information should also be made available through public service announcements and press releases to keep the information easily available to the public. Mayor Billig agreed and felt that the tone and ease of understanding to the public was of primary importance. After brief discussion it was moved by Councilman Settle, seconded by Councilman Griffin, to approve the staff recommended action for concurrence with the zoning code enforcement program now in use. Motion carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Settle, Griffin, Dovey and Mayor Billig NOES: Councilman Dunin ABSENT: None 6. REQUEST FOR GRANT FUNDING - LA FIESTA 1 Recommendation.by the Promotional. Coordinating .Committee.concerning request by La Fiesta for activity grant funding for fiscal year 1982 -83 (continued from 1/4/83). Geoff Grote, Assistant Administrative Officer and staff member to the Promotional Coordinating Committee, reviewed the Council agenda report (file #1051) and stated that it was the staff's and P.C.C.'s recommended action that Council continue to be supportive of La Fiesta and to be appreciative of La Fiesta's contributions to the community. However, La Fiesta.should be encouraged.to make applications for a grant in.fiscal year 1983= 84-and their.request•.denied for this,year unless their.reserves are inadequate to hold the following year's event. After review of their financial statement it appeared they had sufficient funds for start -up and continuing through the La Fiesta season. Upon question by Councilman Dunin, Councilwoman Dovey stated that the original recommendation by the P.C.C. was to grant no funding for La Fiesta although they were supportive of their activities. The Council had tentatively earmarked $3,000 for activity grant funding for this year plus an additional $2,000 to.be set aside for a staff person to.handle the.financial affairs of La Fiesta. Russell Haines, from Arroyo Grande and Dick Cleeves, 2132 Harris Street and on the La Fiesta Committee, stated that there was about $12,000 of upfront monies required to put on La Fiesta which meant additional funds would be needed. The financial statement in the Council's packet did not show this clearly. Charles Delmartini was available for any questions and would urge Council's approval of the recommended request. Councilman Dunin again reminded the Council that needed reserves were required for the event especially in the event that the weather turned bad. Expenditures would have to be paid regardless.. He.was still supportive of the original recommendation for $3,000 grant plus $2,000 for staff member. City Council Minutes Tuesday, April 5, 1983 - 7:00 p.m. Page 10 Councilman Griffin questioned the Council's policy of not paying salaries for grantees. - After brief discussion, it was moved by Councilwoman Dovey, to express support for La Fiesta activities and recognition of the community benefits derived from the annual event and to urge the organization to request 1983 =84 funds if the 1983 fiesta does not leave adequate reserves'to support start -up costs of the 1984 event. Motion included, secondarily, support of the Promotional Coordinating Committee's recommendation-of no ' funding from the 1982 -83 budget. Motion died for lack of a second. After brief discussion, it was moved by Councilman- Dunin, to support the original commitment to grant $3,000 from the general fund and $2,000 toward the employment of a staff member. Motion died for lack of_a second. After additional discussion, it was moved by Councilman Griffin, seconded by Councilman Settle, to authorize staff to prepare an agreement with La Fiesta for a $3;000 grant to be restricted for advertising of this year's La Fiesta event with monies to be transferred from the General•Fund balance. Motion carried on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmembers Griffin, Settle, Dovey, Dunin and Mayor Billig NOES: None ABSENT: None -.. After further discussion, it was moved by Councilwoman Dovey, seconded by Council Settle, that La Fiesta be considered as a budgeted line item in the 1983 -85 budget consistent with other potential line item organizations. Motion carried on the following roll call.vote:_ AYES: Councilmembers Dovey, Settle, Dunin, Griffin and Mayor Billig NOES: None ABSENT: None 7. RESOLUTION OF CONDEMNATION Consideration of a resolution condemning property located at 861 Palm Street - (Shanghai Low Restaurant) required for construction of city's parking structure (1/4/83, 1/18/83, 2/1/83, 2/8/83; 2/15/83, 3/1/83, 3/15/83). George Thacher, City Attorney, stated that there was no additional report. Mr. Gin's attorney, Mr. Roger Lyon was unable to make it tonight and would recommend that the Council continue this item to the April 5 or April 12, 1983 council meeting. At that time'the specifications should be ready and a resolution-could-be made. After brief discussion it was moved by Councilwoman Dovey-, seconded by Councilman Settle, to continue this action until April 12, 1983. Motion carried on the following roll call -vote: AYES: Councilmembers Dovey, Settle, Dunin, Griffin and Mayor Billig 1 NOES: None ABSENT: None C O M M U N I C A T I O N S 1. Communication from Mary Ann Vasconcellos, Chairman of HRC, concerning Fair Housing Month was received and filed.
