Mrs. Pfen m ghausen noted goals were established and a target date of
December 1, 1985, was set to start the first, new commercial venture.
Mr. Evans recommended the Committee, in conjunction with the Agency
members, personally meet with property owners, noted prior mail
contact was not successful.
Mr. Petta advised his statements made at the January 24 meeting were
to clarify that, although the consultant's discussion regarded the
entire City, it was apparent the consultant leaned toward the freeway
area. Agrees with the purpose of the Conflict of Interest Code,
stated he is aware that one cannot serve two masters, however, one
wants to be objective. Wants it clear, in event anyone has concern
regarding this clarification, that he will in no way participate in
any discussion or action relating to economic development, felt the
Agency is doing very well without him. Recommended reappointing or
reaffirming the Economic Development Adhoc Committee appointments
without his participation since he was involved in discussion during
appointments.
Chairman Grant felt the Agency is satisfied with the present
Committee, commended Jim Rigley for his report.

CHECK REGISTER NO. 021485
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson, referencing Warrant Nos. 12858 and 12887,
questioned. (1) Cost of purchasing -versus renting copiers; and
(2) purchasing supplies from Wattenbarger's Office Supply since
Perry's Stationery & Office Supply is closer and the owner lives in
Grand Terrace, requested Perry's be given an opportunity. Finance
Director Schwab felt advanced technology made purchasing copiers
impractical, is considering another copier at this time, would
investigate lease/purchase as well, stated the City has no policy for
giving preference to purchasing in Grand Terrace or Colton, purchases
are based on competitive pricing, advised Wattenbarger delivers to
Grand Terrace regardless of the amount purchased, would review and
request bids again to see whether Perry's prices would be comparable.
CC-85-28 Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Matteson, Second by Councilman Petta, ALL
AYES, to approve Check Register No. 021485 as submitted.
Councilman Petta stated he had made note to disqualify himself from
voting on Item 4D regarding the proposed Mini -Warehouse at 21999
Van Buren, he inadvertently overlooked it in time, questioned how to
resolve that. City Attorney Hopkins stated Council could reconsider
that item. Councilman Evans requested the action remain as is.
Motion No. CC-85-28 remains as stated.

Historical & Cultural Activities Committee - The February 4, 1985
mutes were provi e ; the Committee wi old its monthly meetings in
the new Civic Center effective March 4, 1985.
Emergency Operations Committee - Councilwoman Pfennighausen reported
the following. he Committee is awaiting information to enable
the City's Emergency Operations Plan to be coordinated with the
County's, (2) The Committee felt the new Civic Center EOC/Lounge is
not workable for the Committee to function in case of an emergency;
therefore, the Committee will be requesting to occupy the entire
Building No. 3, with CCS and the Chamber relocating to Building No. 2.
POLICE CHIEF REPORT:
Councilman Evans stated he was advised residents on Brentwood were
cited at 6.20 a.m. on a street sweeping day, it angered them since the
street sweeper is never there that early, questioned procedures for
issuing citations, Captain Bradford responded their policy is to cite
vehicles that have obviously obstructed the street sweeper; confusion
by that particular Deputy has been resolved.
Following Council discussion of concerns expressed at a Senior Citizen
meeting regarding vehicles speeding on Mt. Vernon and Barton Road and
large trucks parking on Michigan and Mt. Vernon, City Attorney Hopkins
read Section 10.16.010 of the Municipal Code dealing with any vehicle
parked over 72 hours and Section 10.16.020 dealing with commercial
vehicles. Questioned whether Council desired amending the Code.
Councilman Evans recommended restricting commercial vehicles from
parking in any residential area, with enforcement officer discretion.
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson objected to the number of commercial vehicles
being parked and worked on for lengthy periods on Michigan -
questioned how eight -hour parking limit can be enforced, since one
side is commercial and the other residential, questioned restricting
commercial parking to the main thoroughfares.
Captain Jim Bradford expressed concern for limiting commerical parking
in certain commercial areas, felt, with Councilwoman Pfennighausen
concurring, the City has an adequate ordinance to enforce this
issue, would pursue resolving the problem in the residential area.
Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Matteson, Second by Mayor Grant, to restrict
commercial vehicles from parking over eight hours in commercial and
residential areas within the City. Councilman Evans stated, for the
record, he could not support the Motion, felt residential areas are
the major problem, therefore, would favor restricting commercial
vehicles from parking in residential areas, felt commercial vehicles
would park less than eight hours in commercial areas. Councilman
Petta felt there is a need for some control, however, did not want to
discourage business, felt this matter should be given more
consideration.

2/14/85
�` i
The Motion failed, 3-2, with NOES by Councilmembers Petta,
Pfennighausen, and Evans.
Mayor Grant directed staff to return a recommendation for Council
consideration.
CITY ATTORNEY REPORT.
City'Attorney Hopkins reported he received a complaint that the
Historical & Cultural Activities Committee conducted meetings not
open to the public, felt others could also be violating the Brown Act
and possibly not complying with State and City Conflict of Interest
Codes, specifically the Planning Commission. Will be providing -them
with procedures and requirements.
Sign Code Amendment - City Attorney Hopkins advised he met with the
Chamber Committee regarding input for the proposed sign code
amendment - the Chamber will be requesting the following.
(1) Eliminating the proposed Section 18.72.380 D. that would allow a
permit process to extend abatement of noncompliance signs for two
years, (2) Including a provision for temporary banners around model
homes in subdivisions for a limited period of time, (3) That limited
variances be granted to Greg's Market, Red Carpet Realty, Ross' Liquor
Store, and Terrace Hills Junior High School, (4) Waiving of fees for
the Terrace Hills Junior High School sign .
Council directed the proposed sign code amendment be changed
accordingly and returned for first reading.
Councilman Petta advised he was questioned at the Senior Citizen
meeting what was being done regarding a Cardinal Street residence
cited for junk vehicles in the front yard.
Councilwoman Pfennighausen reported the following (1) A Southern
California Joint Powers Insurance Authority meeting attended by her
and Councilman Evans was very informative, felt the City is fortunate
to particpate in that type of insurance, however, can expect higher
costs for the next several years. Recommended the City and citizens
contact legislators, (2) Animal Control - Recommended the Sheriff's
Department monitor the Park, citing two pit bulls allowed by owners to
roam and do destruction, felt there is a need to control such dogs.
City Manager Armstead advised a letter has been drafted for Council
consideration regarding legislation pertaining to errors and omissions
and the deep pocket theory. Would contact Animal Control relative to
complaints they are not responding to calls on the weekend.
Mayor Grant directed that staff investigate and provide Council with
what services the Animal Control Contract should be providing.
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson reported the following (1) Questioned the
matter o un s or flood control, which was brought up at the Senior
Citizens February 8 meeting. Discussion on this matter was deferred
until later, when a resolution transferring a portion of the private
activity bond allocation of the City of Grand Terrace would be

considered, (2) Noted legislation is pending to permit cross -county
annexation.
Mayor Grant regretted he was unable to attend the February Senior
Citizen meeting due to illness.
PALM AVENUE REALIGNMENT CONTRACT AWARD - (GTC 85-01)
City Engineer Kicak advised plans were prepared and requests for bids
circulated for the Palm Avenue Realignment Project, as directed by
Council. Four bids were received, the low bidder withdrew his bid of
$14,446 because he could not obtain bonding. DeArmond Construction
was the second lowest bidder at $18,136. The Engineer's Construction
Estimate was $17,500 including $4,500 for staking and inspection.
Recommended including the Alternate "A" Addendum to include paving to
trim the -gutter lip along the Civic Center, for which DeArmond
Construction submitted a proposal of $360.00. Advised Architect Larry
Wolff had requested this be done on a Change Order at a cost of
$594.50.
Recommended awarding the Project to DeArmond Construction for the
amount of $18,136, to negotiate the Alternate "A" Addendum for $360,
and authorize transfering $5,500 from from Gas Tax Fund 16 to the Palm
Avenue Realignment Project to cover the total approximate cost of
$23,000.
CC-85-32 Motion by Councilman Petta, Second by Mayor Grant, to. (1) Authorize
the transfer of $5,500.00 from Gas Tax Fund 16 to the Palm Avenue
Realignment Project, and (2) Award the Palm Avenue Realignment
Construction Contract in the amount of $18,136.00 and Alternate "A"
Addendum in the amount of $360 to DeArmond Construction.
Councilwoman Pfennighausen stated she would support Alternate "A" for
the asphalt along the Civic Center frontage, opposed the Realignment
Project, feeling it is too expensive and unnecessary, noted the
Sheriff's Department had stated the project would not accomplish what
was intended. It was indicated that the Contractor would not do the
Civic Center portion at $360 without the total contract.
Responding to Councilman Evans' questions, City Engineer Kicak advised
five alternatives had previously been submitted for Council
consideration, this Project, Alternative "E", was recommended by staff
and the Traffic Safety Engineer; clarified that a total of
approximately $23,000 would be expended on the proposed realignment -
$4,500 was allocated for staking and inspection, and the City has
already incurred some of that cost pursuant to Council direction, the
additional $5,500 is needed for the construction bid, which was
originally estimated at $13,000.
Councilman Evans, for the record, voiced opposition, feeling the cost
is too expensive for a City this size, felt it is not a safety factor
and has no useful purpose, cited Minutes indicating the Sheriff's
Department and the staff had stated the present situation is not a
problem. Questioned and was advised there has been no traffic
accidents since Council requested installation of safety precautions
Page 5 -
2/14/85
r

2/14/85
in March, 1984. Felt personally its intent is only to increase
property values.
City Engineer Kicak stated his staff and the Sheriff's Department
initially felt the curve could possibly be too sharp, however, based
on the accident reports, felt, if conditions remain the same, the
actual traffic conditions at that intersection would not be materially
altered. Council later reconsidered the matter and directed staff to
proceed with Alternate "E" based on the Traffic Safety Engineer's
recommendation, feeling there may be some benefit to the realignment
since the curve would be easier to negotiate.
Councilman Petta questioned why there are raised markers in the middle
of the road if the intersection is safe, personally experiences
difficulty in negotiating safely, felt the intersection will have
increased traffic. In view of the Traffic Safety Engineer's
recommendations, questioned justifiction for not realigning in event
there is another accident.
Mayor Grant felt the accident at the intersection was a result of
excessive speed, however, felt, since the curve is deceptive, the
Project is worth the cost.
Motion No. CC-84-32 carried, 3-2, with Councilmembers Pfennighausen
and Evans voting NOE.
(See Page 9 for further discussion on this matter).
Recess was called at 7:14 p.m. and reconvened at 7:33 with all members
present.
ORDINANCE NO. 86 - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
GRAND TERRACE, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING ZONE CHANGE AMENDMENTS, IN
COMPLIANCE WITH THE GENERAL PLAN UPDATE OF APRIL 26, 1984, FROM R-R TO
R-3, AREA 11 (ZC 85-01) (Second Reading)
City Attorney Hopkins read the title of the Ordinance.
Planning Director Kicak outlined Area 11, which is presently zoned
R-R, the General Plan designation is Medium Density Residential, which
would correspond to R-3 zoning. Through a review process by an
Architectural Review Committee, up to a maximum of nine units per acre
would be permitted. The General Plan allows up to a maximum of 20
units per acre, however, a Specific Plan is required by the General
Plan for any development of 16 units or more per acre and a
Conditional Use Permit for any development over nine units per acre.
Staff recommends Council conduct a Public Hearing, approve first
reading of the proposed Ordinance waiving full reading, and adopt the
Ordinance by title only.
Mayor Grant opened Public Hearing.
Supporting Testimony
Barney Karger, 11668 Bernardo Way, stated the General Plan designates
Area 11 as R-3 and the adjacent properties are already zoned R-3, A-P,
1 /
C-1 and C-P, thus felt Area 11 has to be R-3. Stated the property
owners could sue for specific performance, which could cost the City
approximately $100,000 in legal costs. Citing "Regulations of the
Fair Employment and Housing Commission," stated when City Council
members specify no low income housing, they are in direct violation by
giving the wrong connotations to that Commission. Suggested Council
question the City Attorney regarding legal rights.
Al Trevino, 1015 Madison Place, Laguna Beach, gave a slide
presentation illustrating their development during the past two
decades and showing how they have approached complex land use
problems.
Opposing Testimony
Sanford Collins, 22697 Brentwood, concurred Council should seek its
legal counsel, noted it has as much legal right to revert the General
Plan back to R-1 in that Area as to rezone it R-3, which is what the
Planning Commission would have done if returned. Stated the reason
for this whole process is because the Planning Commission, through the
zoning ordinance, allowed a Conditional Use Permit for 12 units per
acre in that Area, felt the General Plan Update was hurried and it
would be in the best interest of the City to eventually change it as
far as maximum usage per acre. Felt the issue this evening is not R-3
zoning - noted the Planning Commission recommended this Area as R-3
because of the need for additional multi -family home areas. The
problem here is density and traffic congestion - most Specific Plans
so far do not adequately address the Circulation Element, felt the
City will eventually be required to install traffic signals at all the
intersections. Felt Council should specify to the audience what it
feels the density should be because the first project that comes
before the Planning Commission is going to be returned to Council on a
density appeal.
Bud Howell, 11821 Mt. Vernon, felt there was a lack of public
announcement regarding the Public Hearing, resulting in a small
turnout. Stated the traffic problems have not been examined to
determine the impact in this area. Stated density, traffic, and crime
are concerns of most residents in that area. Felt noise will also be
an environmental problem.
Cleophos Mims, 11743 Mt. Vernon, questioned the developer relative to
density and traffic problems. Mr. Trevino stated it would be dealt
with in the Specific Plan process, stated there are less trips per
unit with apartments than single-family units; noted the City's
Traffic Study Report states Mt. Vernon is capable of handling the
City's traffic upon build -out, which includes hillside development.
Has recommended a signal at the intersection of Canal and Mt. Vernon,
and speed should be controlled on Mt. Vernon.
Dr. Jack Booker, 11785 Mt. Vernon, felt density is the issue; voiced
concern for increased social and traffic problems. Has never been
opposed to R-3 connotation for the area with a maximum of 12 units per
acre. Felt if developed as proposed, Mt. Vernon must be widened to
its maximum capacity from Barton Road to Canal Street and Grand
Page 7 -
2/14/85
Terrace Road. Requested consideration of freeway onramps at the area
of the Newport overpass.
Charly Martin, 11939 Pascal, opposed the zone change.
Norman DeLaby 11966 Arliss Drive, felt there had not been proper
notification of the Public Hearing. Felt the development would
overcrowd schools and streets, concerned for increased crime.
Rebuttal to Opposing Testimony
Barney Karger, 11668 Bernardo Way, disagreed the General Plan Update
was hurried, stated it took approximately two years. Noted the State
stipulated the least maximum density of 26 units for this area - the
City succeeded in lowering it to 20. Stated the number of units per
acre will be determined by the Planning Commission. Felt the
realistic number of units, if 20 per acre, would be around 800 units,
which would bring revenue.
Rebuttal to Supporting Testimony
Sanford Collins, 22697 Brentwood, stated the County Planning
Department advised him there has never been a lawsuit in the State
regarding time in which to rezone for compliance with the General
Plan. Advised the Planning Commission presently has a Specific Plan
before it for 187 units, which indicates 800 additional entries and
exits onto Barton Road and Mt. Vernon per day, and the developer
indicates that as no problem.
Bud Howell, 11821 Mt. Vernon, agreed with widening Mt. Vernon to four
lanes, however, questioned how two lanes of traffic stopped at a
proposed signal at Grand Terrace Road and Mt. Vernon could travel down
the hill.
Charly Martin, 11939 Pascal, advised he was present when Council
previously voted against this zone change, felt with fewer people in
attendance Council will approve it. Norman DeLaby, 11966 Arliss
Drive, indicated concurrence.
Mayor Grant closed Public Hearing.
Councilman Evans stated he is fully aware of the situation, has
concerns for traffic problems and school impaction, however, concurs
with Mr. Karger that this is not the proper forum to address those
problems. Will be monitoring the matter closely. Felt, from a legal
basis, Council has to grant rezoning.
Councilwoman Pfennighausen stated the issue under consideration is
zoning, felt there has been repeated discussion relative to land use,
rather than zoning. The questions cannot be answered until there is a
specific project. As long as points have been made, would address
those problems Colton Joint Unified School District has not been
able to provide information about present or anticipated school
impaction - felt the builder has to address that problem, several
traffic studies have been conducted on Mt. Vernon since she has been
on the Council plus an extensive Circulation Element study for the
General Plan, felt
Page 8 -
2/14/85
the crime problems come from within the City - recommended dealing
with the reason.
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson stated people have expressed opposition to high
density, noted the proposed zone change was defeated prior to the
election, concerned it would be approved now. Felt the major problem
is traffic, concurs crime is here, but concerned it would increase.
Stated the School District expressed concern for school impaction that
could result from the proposed 176 Chapparal Pine units - concerned
for further impaction resulting from a potential 1,000 additional
units; concerned about exceeding the City's sewer capacity. Felt the
entire City is affected and should have received notices of the
Hearing. Stated Council is not compelled to approve this zone change
- but can do what it sees fit, the General Plan can be amended.
Councilman Petta requested the City's legal position be restated.
City Attorney Hopkins advised that the City is legally required to
bring its zoning and General Plan into compliance. Law provides a
means whereby property owners may institute actions to force such
consistency, which could cost the City legal fees. The City can amend
its General Plan, however, the property owners could implement action
prior to that.
Councilman Petta stated he also has concerns about high density in
that area, he, too, liked the way Grand Terrace used to be, however,
also likes some of the developments and improvements. Noted objection
is for high density that could result, not the R-3 zoning. Stated
faith must be placed in the Planning Commission and then in this
Council - would not support anything that does not have good planning
and would be concerned about 1,000 units in that Area. Felt R-3
zoning is proper and the issue at hand is to stay legal.
Mayor Grant felt it difficult to separate the zoning issue from the
problem of density, expressed concern for traffic and crime. Felt
comfortable with R-3 zoning, since it would not take control of
density away from the City, feeling this Council will not allow high
density. Felt, legally, the City has little choice. Was not sure how
he would vote at that time.
City Attorney Hopkins advised there was an error of omission on the
notices sent to residents by not stating the time of the Hearing, the
notice was not a legal requirement, therefore, would have no affect on
the Hearing.
CC-85-33 Motion by Councilman Evans, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, ALL
AYES, to approve the second reading of the Ordinance by title only,
waiving full reading.
CC-85-34 Motion by Councilman Evans, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, to
adopt Ordinance No. 86 by title only, carried 3-2, with Mayor Grant
and Mayor Pro Tem Matteson voting NOE.
PALM AVENUE REALIGNMENT CONTRACT AWARD (GTC 85-01
iscussion from aqe
(Continued
Larry Halstead, 22675 Barton Road, advised he was not present earlier
that evening when this item was discussed. Noted he has previously
Page 9 -
2/14/85
voiced corrtern for traffic safety at that intersection, has studied
the plans and sees no justification for the realignment - felt it will
increase speed of traffic on Palm approaching the intersection, since
traffic would not have to slow down for the natural curve that
exists. Felt visibility is good both direction on Barton Road from
Palm, felt the distance between signals at Mt. Vernon and Preston
creates excessive speed making it difficult to enter. Felt
installation of the indicators has resolved problems, questioned
spending that amount of money, requested Council reconsider action
taken earlier that evening.
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson requested the City Engineer to clarify the
corrections, the benefits, and what instigated the project. Mr. Kicak
stated Palm Avenue would be widened to provide more turning roan and a
smoother curve for approximately 180 feet from the intersection
easterly toward Observation Drive, would have to refer to the benefits
given in the Traffic Safety Engineers's Report, advised that Council
directed investigation of the matter following two accidents occurring
in a short period of time.
Councilwoman Pfennighausen felt the supporting vote was based on the
Traffic Safety Engineer's Report, questioned whether he recognized
this intersection as a problem prior to being requested to look at it;
recommended rescinding action taken earlier until the Community
Services Director can provide information on that Report.
Mr. Kicak stated Community Services Director Anstine advised the
Traffic Safety Engineer, who was contracted at that time for the
Traffic Control Device Inventory Project, of the proposals to improve
the intersection, Mr. Anstine requested he look at the intersection
and give his advice on the five proposals, Mr. Kicak noted Council
rejected all five proposals the first time presented, and a
Councilmember later requested it be returned for consideration.
Councilman Evans, referencing Minutes of March 8, 1984, stated
an accident report was apparently submitted to Council by Mr. Halstead
and brought the matter to a head, could not find in the Minutes any
statements that the correction would increase the safety. Felt the
accidents resulted from driver error, felt the matter should be tabled
and the previous action be rescinded.
Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Matteson, Second by Councilman Evans, to
rescind action taken relative to the Palm Avenue Realignment Contract
Award.
Following Councilman Petta's request, City Engineer Kicak outlined to
Council the proposed realignment. Councilman Petta felt widening the
Palm entrance would alleviate a blind spot caused by the planter.
Councilman Evans voiced disagreement.
The Motion failed 2-3, with NOE votes by Mayor Grant, Mayor Pro Tem
Matteson, and Councilman Petta.

FIRE PROTECTION - VIVIENDA/BURNS
BRIDGE REPLACEMENT - VIVIENDA AVENUE/WEST BARTON ROAD/SOUTHERN PACIFIC
RAILROAD
City Engineer Kicak stated Council directed staff to investigate the
possibility of increasing fire protection in the northwest portion of
the City. He met with Riverside Highland Water Company regarding
improvements and the cost of their participation to provide this
protection. They will be installing an eight -inch line in conjunction
with the Vivienda Bridge construction, and have agreed to extend that
line to tie into the existing 30 inch line at the intersection of
Vivienda and Grand Terrace Road and to extend it westerly to tie into
the existing and/or proposed water system that would be constructed by
the City. Noted a map provided which showed the proposed new line and
four fire hydrants, which should provide adequate protection in the
area. Any potential new development would require construction of an
eight -inch line to be tied into the four -inch line at Walnut and tying
into the intersection of Burns and Vivienda. The flow is estimated to
exceed the requirement for residential type fires.
Mr. Kicak advised $52,000 is estimated as the City's portion of the
cost. Gave the following alternatives for funding• (1) Establishment
of an assessment district, which would cost each of the estimated 26
parcels in that area approximately $2,000. Those residents now
getting water from a two-inch line would benefit. (2) Request County
Supervisor Riordan to utilize some of her discretionary funding,
(3) Use the City's HCD funding estimated at approximately $30,000 a
year for the next three years. HCD indicated willingness to fund a
single project early in a three-year period to utilize all of the
funds. Mr. Kicak stated Council could consider potential use of HCD
funding if it decides to replace the bridge west of Barton Road over
Southern Pacific Railroad. Requested direction.
Responding to questions, Mr. Kicak felt the bridge was placed on a
replacement program list prior to incorporation - will require some
protection but problems are not significant enough for immediate
replacement. Since the Barton Road Bridge Replacement is a joint
project with the City of Colton and the project is not in Colton's
targeted area for HCD funding, it must be determined whether Colton
can utililize HCD funding. Concurred it would be more practical to
replace with a four -lane bridge, however, that would require
right-of-way acquisition involving an environmental impact report, and
the deadline would not be met, suggested proceeding with two lane
replacement and expand if there is enough funding.
Councilwoman Pfennighausen felt Supervisor Riordan may not be willing
to fund the entire amount for the fire protection improvement,
therefore, suggested a three-way split, requesting her to fund
one-third, with the City and the residents funding the rest. Felt
this project is needed. Councilman Evans and Councilman Petta
indicated concurrence.
It was felt removal of the curve at Stater Bros. Warehouse was related
to these projects and utilization of HCD funds should be explored in
addition to coordinating the fire protection project with citizens.
Page 11 -
2/14/85
citizens. Support was indicated for long-range planning for a
four -lane bridge replacement.
CC-85-36 Motion by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, Second by Councilman Evans, to
direct staff to prepare a plan for Council consideration for a
three-way split of the $52,000 Fire Protection Project outlined in the
Staff Report dated February 5, 1985, Subject Fire Protection in the
Vicinity of Vivienda Avenue, Burns, Maple and Walnut Avenue; one-third
to be paid for by the residents, one-third by the City, and one-third
by the Third District Supervisor's discretionary funds.
Councilman Petta suggested also preparing an alternative plan,
Mr. Kicak felt all possibilities had been explored, suggested a
Council person approach Supervisor Riordan if Council does request her
funding. Councilwoman Pfennighausen expressed willingness.
Motion No. CC-85-36 carried, ALL AYES.
BARTON ROAD RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT - FAU FUNDING EXHCHANGE
City Engineer Kicak stated the Federal Highway Administration and
Caltrans are concerned that large amounts of unobligated FAU Funds
could reduce or eliminate the Federal -Aid Program, Caltrans encourages
agencies to sell or exchange its FAU dollars with other agencies for
general funds, gas tax dollars, etc., which would allow agencies
without projects meeting Federal requirements to utilize FAU funding
on other projects. Has determined funding in addition to FAU funds
will be required for finalization of the Barton Road Reconstruction
Project. The City of Rialto is considering selling the City
$100,000.00 of its FAU funds in exchange for $85,000.00 of Gas Tax
Monies. Requested (1) Authorization to negotiate with the City of
Rialto, if an agreement is reached, (2) Authorize the City Manager to
execute an Exchange of FAU Dollars Agreement, and (3) Authorization
for the exchange of $85,000.00 from Gas Tax funding and transfer the
Rialto FAU Dollars in the amount of $100,000.00 into the City's FAU
Budget Account No. 20-4930-255, increasing the balance to $450,000.00.
Responding to questions, Mr. Kicak advised the $100,000.00 would be
utilized totally for the Barton Road Reconstruction Project and
clarified the improvements involved, advised there are no present
plans for Barton Road improvements west of Mt. Vernon, noted Barney
Karger had stated certain property owners on Barton Road had indicated
willingness to put in improvements if the City does paving and
relocates utility poles, for which there would be no cost to the
City, one time only, if it is a public works project - this does not
include cost to put utilities underground, noted the Rule 20A
requires utility companies to put aside certain funds annually, which
could be utilized for undergrounding utilities, however, felt those
funds were not nearly sufficient at this time. Relative to source of
funding for improvements to entice Barton Road economic development,
Mr. Kicak advised it would require next year's funds if only
restricted funding is utilized.
Councilman Evans felt, with Councilwoman Pfennighasuen concurring, the
Palm Avenue Realignment funds would have been better utilized for
Barton Road improvements west of Mt. Vernon. Felt a coordinated
Page 12 -
2/14/85
effort is needed to meet the Economic Development Ad Hoc Committee's
target date of December 1.
City Manager Armstead recommended investigating use of Industrial
Development Bonds.
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson felt having the improvements does not determine
acquiring development, felt it is going to take time.
Councilwoman Pfennighausen felt, awn inducem-ent_far—development,

CC-85-37 Motion by Councilman Evans, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, ALL
AYES, to authorize staff to initiate negotiations with the City of
Rialto for the exchange of $85,000.00 of City of Grand Terrace Gas Tax
Funds for the City of Rialto's $100,000.00 in FAU Funds
CC-85-38 Motion by Councilman Evans, Second by Mayor Grant, ALL AYES, that if
agreement is reached relative to Motion No. CC-85-37, (1) to authorize
the City Manager to execute an Exchange of FAU Dollars Agreement with
the City of Rialto, and (2) authorize the exchange of $85,000.00 from
Gas Tax Funding and transfer the Rialto FAU Dollars in the amount of
$100,000.00 into the City's FAU Budget Account No. 20-4030-255,
increasing the balance to $450,000.00.
RESOLUTION NO. 85-02 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
GRAND TERRACE, CALIFORNIA, TRANSFERRING A PORTION OF THE PRIVATE
ACTIVITY BOND ALLOCATION OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE.
City Manager Armstead advised the County of San Bernardino and various
cities have been requested to participate in a Waste -to -Energy
facility for the valley - such financing will require issuance of
approximate $200-$250 Million of 1984 Private Activity Bonds. Staff
recommends Council adopt the Resolution approving the loan of Grand
Terrace's 1984 allocation of $502,000 for the purpose of benefitting
the County's Waste -to -Energy Project.
It was clarified the City cannot utilize this allocation, it is
unlikely storm drains could be acquired out of these bond
allocations. Mr. Armstead felt this action would build goodwill and,
sometime in the future, the City may reacquirethese funds.
CC-85-39 Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Matteson, Second by Councilwoman
Pfennighausen, ALL AYES, to Adopt Resolution No. 85-02.

Dear Mayor Grant and City Council:
INFORMATION COPY
,f.URNISHED
RECEIVED
FEB 2 81986
CITY OF GRAND TERRACE
In 1977 the City of Adelanto very openly contacted a prison siting committee
of the State Legislature and the California Department of Corrections, offer-
ing this City as a site for a prison industry.
The request, although common now, was obviously ahead of its time, and al-
though publicized by the media, was ccampletely ignored by everyone else.
The state accepted the City's offer and purchased 330 acres on which to
construct a 1,150-bed maxsmm security prison facility that, when opened,
will mean:
1. A $14 million annual payroll for employees.
2. 590 badly needed Sobs in an area of an estimated 35 percent
chronic unemployment.
3. A $30 to $40 million annual economic ampact on Victor
Valley.
4. Necessary satellite sen7ice businesses (none of which
currently exist in Adelanto) .
5. Resultant utility and roadway improvements.
The Department of Corrections has agreed to:
A. Relocate the prison site from the originally purchased property
to a location three (3) miles to the north an order to reduce
noise created by George Air Force Base, and of concern to the
Department of Corrections (DOC).

B. Purchase and treat California Aqueduct water in an amount equal
to the pro3ected annual consumption, although no other develop-
ment, industry, or city in the high desert has been saddled with
this requirement.
C. Assume or reimburse San Bernardino County for all court costs created
by activities of inmates.
Adelanto requested this industry in 1977, and continues to support it in an
attempt to recover frcm a historical red -lining created by aircraft noise over
this Citv. Adelanto wishes only to grow in the manner of all other cities
within San Bernardino County - without the unwarranted and unnecessary inter-
ference of neighboring entities.
The request for the prison was made only after a comprehensive study of other
prison communities, and conversations with residents and business leaders
to ascertain the negative as well as the positive benefits of a prison in-
dustry. It was determined that the nenefits far exceeded any possible
negative aspects.
Adelanto respectfully requests a Resolution from your Council, supporting
this City's right to self-determination in its productive decision to locate
a California State Correctional Facility within its corporate boundaries.
Very truly yours,
Cam,

The committee suggested that we continue to occupy Building ,#3. The
rationale for the suggestion being that it can serve the needs of
the City as an Emergency Operations Center more effectively where it
is presently located because of space and storage facilities.
Motion by Vic Pfennighaus4n, seconded by Roberta Fulton that the com-
mittee Chairman or his Assistant draft a letter to the City Council
c
that the EOC facilities remain in building #3. Vote 4 - 0
Jim Hodder brought to the attention of the committee the Governor's
proclamation that April 15 through April 20 will be observed as Earth-
quake Preparedness Week. The committee will be giving out pamphlets
and emphasizing the importance of Earthquake Preparedness.
Jim also reported that there was a hazardous materials seminar coming
up in the next few weeks and that anyone who could attend should con-
tact him.
The committee went over the 1,4udget items and will put in a request to,
purchase a T-Rack and cards for the EOC facility. Mike Harris gave
the committee a run down on how an effective T-Rack card system works.
The committee asked Randy to check with the Red Cross to see what
systems are available to the city and where such items as cots, blan-
kets, etc. are stored.

Dear Mr. Rigley
Tnank you for taking vo ur valuable time to attend and part;cipate in
the recent Regional Economic Development Workshop at the Dome Audi-
torium on January 31st
As you know, the discussions were lively and provided some excellent
suggestions that can be incorporated in developing a positive plan
of actibn.
1 e h
T"_ '^C jyV~j of t'"e steering committee should include nno member Trnm
each area in the total region who would be responsible for gathering
the needed information and assuming the role as the liaison person for
their area with the regional organization.
There are 18 areas of influence within the Inland Valley region. Eleven
areas were present at the workshop, and I have heard from four other
areas since the workshop that couldn't be present, but do want to par-
ticipate in the suggested concept.
I am in contact with the three remaining areas to secure a person to
serve on the proposed ad hoc steering committee and have offered to put
on individual meetings for their group so that they will also be in-
formed about the concept.
As you will recall in the January 10th workshop packet and materials,
it was especially emphasized that the workshop was not sponsored by
any group, out was an open workshop among representatives of every area
it the total Inland Valley region. Further, they were interested in
the economic development of their respective areas and the region itself.
:t was pointed out several times that this effort to obtain additional
information about the areas in the region was not a duplication of the
demographic information that has been supplied to Mr Joe Write of the
County Economic Development Department.
The information that we are attempting to gather for a master file
pertains to the following
A. What kinds of actual and specific investment opportunities
are available in each area regarding

properties or businesses
B. What are the major assets and incentives that can be
used in developing the area's profile which would encourage
a prospect's interest to visit that area?
Following are some questions that might be helpful to you in your efforts
to develop your area's profile of investment opportunities. For example,
a prospect has arrived in the region and we are developing a profile on
his interests and needs. Some questions he might ask are
1. My associates and I have one million dollars we would like
to invest in a service oriented business. $350,000. $5
million. (Where would you direct them if you have no such
opportunities in your area?)
2. What are the advantages for our group to even consider
making investments in that area of the region?
3. What are some of the area's major assets and financial
incentives available to our group should we get interested
in investing in that area?
4. What are some of the products and services currently being
produced in the area?
5. How does the cost of production/services compare with the
cost in other adjacent areas? Counties? States?
Naturally, each area is going to expose all of its inventories of in-
vestment opportunities to their prospect before turning them to another
area. The important keys of negotiating a successful deal with the
prospect will be to match his needs and interests. If an area cannot
match the prospect's interest in their respective community, then lez s
be willing to turn the prospect to another area that does have investment
opportunities which will closely match his desires
Tnis means each area must have an inventory of investment opportunities
on file in a central location which would be available to the liaison
representatives for each area in the region. We already know that many
areas have different interests and needs. However, those interests and
needs are not generally known out of their immediate zones of influence.
'Anile we realize there is a great deal of work involved in developing
inventories and community profiles, we also know from ot^er areas
throughout the country that hard work can produce some outstanding
ree4ards for those participating cocrmunities
As soon as the remaining areas indicate who their liaison representa-
tives will be, then a special meeting of the ad noc steering committee
members will be called.
Tnank you for your continuing support and interest in the regional concept
Sincerely yours,
LEX. JACK. KELLY

SOME THOUGHT -PROVOKING QUESTIONS1
We must remember, outside of our immediate zones of influence, no one
else is familiar with our assets, opportunities or incentives. There-
fore, the profiles developed by each community are vital, as an infor-
mation source, when trying to match a qualified prospect's interests
and needs within the region.
1. HAVE YOU ESTABLISHED A LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE
WHOSE MEMBERSHIP CONSISTS OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SECTOR LEADERS?
4 .r
WHO WILL SERVE AS YOUR LIAISON REPRESENTATIVE BETWEEN YOUR
COMMITTEE AND THE REGIONAL GROUP?
2. HAVE YOU DEVELOPED A CURRENT INVENTORY OF PROFILES WHICH WILL
INDICATE INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES IN THE FOLLOWING AREAS:
RESIDENTIAL, COMMERCIAL, INDUSTRIAL, RAW LAND, INCOME -PRODUCING
BUSINESSES, JOINT VENTURES, AND TOURISM? -` -
NOTE: Often a visiting prospect will indicate he has or he
r
represents a group with.,$250,000-$500,000, $1 million
or even $5 million -they want to invest in a commercial
project or service -oriented business. You must be pre-
pared to answer these questions in a professional way.
Even if your answer is "Not in our area, but we will be
happy to check our master regional file for you." Your
professional credibility with the client will immediately
increase in his eyes.
3. HAVE YOU OBJECTIVELY ADDRESSED THE QUESTION "WHY WOULD A POTENTIAL
BUSINESS OWNER OR CORPORATE EXECUTIVE, SEEKING A SITE TO EXPAND
OR START A NEW BUSINESS, EVEN BE INTERESTED IN VISITING OUR AREA
OR COMMUNITY?" The answer to this question is vital if you are
seriously interefted in attracting new or expanding businesses to
your community. Some thoughts to assist you are. attitudes of
local citizens toward economic development activities, community's
assets and liabilities, local incentives and inducements available,
f
profiles on local existing businesses, proximity to other trade
markets, transportation, price comparisons on utilities, housing,
and taxes, arts, culture, education, and religious activities,
and, finally, population mixes and available labor forces.
4. DO YOU HAVE THE SUPPORT FROM MOST OF YOUR LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS IN
YOUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ENDEAVORS? WILL THESE ORGANIZATIONS
ASSIST IN RAISING FUNDS IN THE COMMUNITY TO FINANCIALLY SUPPORT
YOUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES? A MAJOR QUESTION THAT MUST
BE ADDRESSED IN THE AFFIRMATIVE IS "WHO BENEFITS WHEN NEW JOBS
AND NEW PAYROLLS ARE GENERATED IN OUR COMMUNITY?"
5. THIS NEXT AND FINAL QUESTION IS HIGHLY DIVERGENT, BUT VERY GERMANE
TO THE QUESTION OF "HOW DO YOU ATTRACT QUALIFIED PROSPECTS TO YOUR
COMMUNITY?" One, make them aware of your community's location and
investment opportunities; and, two, physically get them to visit
your area to investigate your opportunities. Your competition is _
very keen as almost every other city in the United States is trying
to attract new businesses, too. Some offer such outlandish incen-
tives and inducements that they are almost unbelievable. You can
only base your own marketing endeavors upon the results obtained by
the most successful marketing programs throughout the country. Un-
fortunately, many well-meaning community leaders just don't have a
working knowledge of advertising and marketing on either a national
or international basis and cannot understand the vehicles that must
be employed concurrently to produce the desired results because they
haven't been exposed to them.
Our efforts to attract new or expanding businesses to our region must
employ every vehicle possible concurrently, as has been proven time and
again by other aggressive areas throughout the United States.
We have an awareness apd marketing program already in place that has been
proven to be successful. We only need to expand it to cover the areas of
the region.

C R A ITEM ( ) COUNCIL ITEM (X ) MEETING DATE: 3-14-85
AGENDA ITEM NO.
SUBJECT: Ordinance amending Chapter 18.72 of the Municipal Code Dealing With Signs
FUNDING REQUIRED
NO FUNDING REQUIRED X
Attached for Council review are the letter from the City Attorney outlining
amendments recommended by the Chamber, a listing of affected signs by
adoption of the ordinance, an excerpt of the 2-28-85 minutes on this
subject, and the ordinance as approved on first reading.
At the 2-28-85 meeting, City Attorney Hopkins and the Chamber advised
the Chamber was also requesting that the ordinance be amended to include
expansion of the freeway zone from the present 250-foot area presently
cited in the ordinance. The City Attorney advised at that meeting that
the ordinance presented did not include an amendment to that provision.
No action was taken by Council to include that item. If amendment of
that provision is desired, it would be considered as a substantive change
and would require another first reading including that amendment at this
meeting, with the second reading, public hearing and adoption to be
continued to 3-28-85. This will also affect the 60-day moratorium
approved at the 2-28-85 meeting. If the ordinance is adopted on 3-28,
it will become effective April 28, the moratorium expires May 5 under
the presently -approved 60-day moratorium, this will not allow sufficient
time for sign owners to process variance applications.
The ordinance could be adopted as presented with the 250-foot freeway zone,
then businesses, such as Arco, could apply for a variance.
STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT COUNCIL -

EXCERPTS OF 2/28/85 CITY COUNCIL MEETING
SIGN CODE - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND
TERRACE —IC A, AMENDING THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE MUNICIPAL CODE,
CHAPTER 18.72, DEALING WITH SIGNS (First Reading)
City Attorney Hopkins read the title of the Ordinance, advised that
shortly after incorporation the City adopted a sign code as a portion
of the zoning ordinance, the ordinance included a provision for the
amortization of existing signs which would become non -complying upon
adoption of the ordinance, and created a five-year moratorium for
enforcement of that provision to allow the sign owners to bring their
signs into compliance, the moratorium period concluded December 8,
1984, at which time the non -complying signs would become illegal. On
October 11, 1984 Council placed in abeyance the enforcement of the
ordinance against those non -complying, amortized signs and created a
90-day moratorium on the enforcement of that provision, since that
time Council has been considering certain amendments to the sign
code.
City Attorney Hopkins stated he met with the Chamber of Commerce, as
directed; reviewed the amendments recommended by the Chamber, as
outlined in his letter to City Manager Armstead dated February 26,
1985: (1) Amend Section 18.72.210 to allow temporary banners, flags
and pennants advertising the sale or lease of tracts, subdivisions or
developments and models for a period not to exceed one year and
authorizing the Planning Director to approve a six-month extension,
(2) Delete Section 18.72.380 (D) which provides an additional two
years for non -conforming signs to be brought into compliance.
The Chamber of Commerce has indicated it will recommend to the
Planning Commission and City Council that variances be granted to
Ross's Liquor Store, Greg's Market, Red Carpet Realty and Terrace
Hills Junior High School, and waiving the variance fee for Terrace
Hills Junior High.
City Attorney Hopkins advised a revised ordinance incorporating the
Chamber's recommendations has been provided Council for first reading;
another Chamber recommendation, which is not included in the revised
ordinance, is the expansion of the freeway zone area, which presently
provides a 250-foot area for larger freeway signs.
Mayor Grant opened the meeting to public participation. Carolyn
Ramirez, La Tijera Barber Salon, 22430 Barton Road, opposedlowering
their sign to eight feet, present sign is too large to lower, cost to
replace would be extensive, and sign would be subject to damage, a
five-foot retaining wall is on the property frontage which is level
with the street, sign wouldn't be visible if lowered.
Councilman Petta declared a potential conflict of interest and
withdrew from participation on this matter.
David TerBest, 22365 Barton Road, representing the Chamber of
Commerce, commended the City and Council for working with the Chamber
in seeking solutions to resolve this matter, noted the Chamber has
supported in writing certain businesses which it feels should have
variances, requested that Ontario Savings and La Tijera Barber Salon
be included on that listing, recommended expanding the freeway zone to
include those businesses adjacent to the freeway exit at Barton Road
and Michigan, such as Texaco and Arco, recommended adoption of
ordinance with amendments as proposed by the Chamber.
Carl Wilson, 21971 DeBerry, U-Stor Business, cautioned against
adopting a restrictive ordinance, citing cases of cities losing
businesses as a result, requested and was advised his sign is within
the freeway zone, so will be legal. Mike Helber, Ontario Savings,
felt the time and temperature sign provides a community service, if
not allowed to remain at present height, will have to be removed,
requested variance be granted. David Terbest stated a staff
memorandum indicated the Ontario Savings sign would become legal on
adoption of the ordinance, later learned that sign will still be
illegal, advised the Chamber of Commerce supports a variance for
Ontario Savings, requested that all variances recommended by the
Chamber be considered at the same time. Doug Erway, Chamber of
Commerce President, stated the Chamber was concerned about the entire
business community as well as the community when it considered the
sign ordinance, supported adoption of the ordinance with amendments
recommended by the Chamber, granting variances supported by the
Chamber, and every business with an illegal or non -conforming sign
having the opportunity to petition for a variance. Mayor Grant closed
public participation.
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson disagreed with requiring signs which existed at
the time the sign ordinance was first adopted to be modified at
considerable expense by the businesses, supported a grandfather clause
for those signs. Councilwoman Pfennighausen supported the Ontario
Savings sign remaining and being included in exempt signs, felt the
250-foot freeway zone is insufficient, recommended that Michigan be a
geographic boundary to the south of Barton Road and Vivienda to the
north, recommended clearly depicting the geographic area of the
freeway zone which can be available for proposed businesses to
eliminate measuring the distance.
Mayor Grant felt it is unrealistic to require compliance on certain
signs such as Ontario Savings, concurred with and questioned legal
feasibility of a grandfather clause. City Attorney Hopkins advised
a grandfather clause can be included, but would have to include all
existing signs, with no provision for excluding undesirable existing
signs, the original purpose of the ordinance will not be accomplished
if each existing sign is grandfathered in and allowed to remain 100
years from now, the purpose of the variance process is to allow
consideration of justifiable existing signs to remain.
Councilman Evans, noting it is with the understanding the Chamber
fully supports the ordinance as drafted, Motion by Councilman Evans,
Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, to waive full reading of the
ordinance amending Chapter 18.72 of the Municipal Code carried 4-0-1,
with Councilman Petta abstaining.
Motion by Councilman Evans, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, to
approve first reading of the ordinance amending Chapter 18.72 of the
Municipal Code by title only.
Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Matteson to amend Motion No. CC-85- to
include direction that a letter go to all businesses which will have
signs in violation of the ordinance advising them of the variance
procedure to correct their signs, that application can be made to the
Planning Commission for a variance, and if rejected can appeal the
matter to the City Council. City Attorney Hopkins advised staff could
be instructed to prepare such a letter upon second reading and
adoption of the ordinance. The Motion to amend failed for lack of a
second. Motion No. CC-85- carried 4-0-1, with Councilman Petta
abstaining.
City Attorney Hopkins recommended extending the moratorium which holds
in abeyance the portion of the sign code ordinance pertaining to
amortization 60 days to allow adoption of the ordinance and initiation
of the variance process by sign owners, clarified the additional 60
days would begin from March 6, 1985, and the ordinance would become
effective in approximately 45 days, which would allow two weeks to
apply for a variance.
Motion by Councilman Evans, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, to
continue for an additional 60 days the moratorium which holds in
abeyance the portion of the sign code ordinance pertaining to
amortization carried 4-0-1, with Councilman Petta abstaining.

C R A ITEM ( ) COUNCIL ITEM (xxx) MEETING DATE:- March 14, 1985
AGENDA ITEM NO.
SUBJECT: Precise Alignment - Vivienda Avenue
FUNDING REQUIRED
NO FUNDING REQUIRED
Recent field surveys by the consultants for Vivienda Avenue Bridge design
revealed ma3or discrepancies between the record information for the rights -of -
ways and the physical existing improvements.
Staff has made an effort to determine, through Title Company, if there were
any records that would indicate any changes in recorded information from that
shown on the survey based on Recorded Map dating back to 1894 There appears
to be none and therefore, the information on the maps presented by the consultant
appears to be correct.
The ma3or problem is the fact that the street improvements do not occupy the
right-of-way as shown on the map. That in fact, within the existing right-of-way,
now exist private improvements, specifically two structures. Therefore, the City
must rely on prescriptive rights established that can be historically substantiated
to year 1912.
It appears that a structure and/or structures, which now occupy the existing
recorded right-of-way, were constructed in 1910
Subsequent to the construction of these buildings, San Bernardino County Board of
Supervisors on November 12, 1912, by a Resolution authorized Pacific Electric
Railway Company (now Southern Pacific) to construct a bridge on Vivienda Avenue
at a location, and in fact the bridge that exists on Vivienda today, across the
Southern Pacific. We were unsuccessful in obtaining any plans referenced in that
resolution. The above facts indicate, however, that the traveled way of Vivienda
Avenue existed in its' present location at least since 1912, therefore the
prescriptive rights have been established for the existing traveled way.
It has been recommended that a precise alignment be established for the right-of-way
This precise alignment should follow as much as possible the centerline of existing
improvements This is in fact what is being proposed
Attached for your information is the following
