Mr. Randy Amstime
c/o City of Grand Terrace

Grand Terrace, CA 92324
Dear Mr. Amstime:
Thank you very much for the courtesy extended to me when we spoke recently.
Let me take this opportunity to outline our proposal to the City of Grand
Terrace.
We at Pedestal Post would like to provide to your city with up to ten commuter
shelters, strategically positioned at key bus stops. Our proposal is to
install, maintain and service the shelter, at no cost toyouur city._
Additionally, we would solicit advertisers to pa ticipate in the program and
provide us with tastefully conceived ads for display on the commuter shelters.
We would, of course, return to the city of Grand Terrace 15% of all
advertising revenue that we generate
If the city of Grand Terrace were to accept our proposal the following
benefits would accrue
1 Protection from the Elements. Bus riders, particularly the elderly,
appreciate the shelter from the direct sunlight in the summer, also the
cover provided against the occasional winter rainstorms
2. Security. Law enforcement personnel agree that the illumination provided
by the advertising panel offers a certain measure of security for
commuters, especially in the early sunset winter months
3 Revenue Your city would receive a percentage of all advertising
revenues that we generate It is important to note that these would be
non -operating revenues, that is revenue without attendant costs.

4. Communications Opportunity. We would make available a percentage of
unsold ad panes for the city to use to disseminate public service
oriented messages.
As soon as you have had a chance to review this proposal, we would welcome the
opportunity to meet with you or your designate in order to bring this matter
to a satisfactory conclusion
Sincerely yours,
PEDESTAL POST, INC.

MOST OFTFN ASKED QUESTIONS
RE- PUS SHELTER AGVEPTISING
1. How do you deteimine (Find RTA control) site selections?
The volume number of boardings and transfers at bus stops is the first
consideration To determine a high priority location, the number of 50

the community and will consider recommendations from them, as long as the
locations can meet city codes.
2. How do we resolve right to control ad content?
The city or authority will have the right to reject an ad or campaign
that is determined to be objectionable. Upon notification Pedestal Post
will remove the ad in question within 24 hours. Pedestal Post reserves
the right to appeal any determination that an ad or campaign is unaccept-
able -
3. How does the company demonstrate (and guarantee) its financial responsi-
bility?

capability to operate a bus shelter franchise in the city of Riverside.

public funding for additional shelters?
A city that enters into a privately sponsored commuter shelter program
does not forfeit their right to public funding from any state or federal
agency.
11 How many shelters would be planned for Riverside?
We feel that 25 to 30 commuter shelters is an adequate number to start
with for the City of Riverside. Througn-out the County of Riverside the
figure of 150 commuter shelters is not out of line.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
Mary Robinson, 22631 Minona Drive, questioned status of water rate
issue, additionally, encouraged support of Proposition 62.
Water Rate Issue
City Manager Seth Armstead related water rate comparison survey of
various cities will be provided at next meeting. Mayor Pro Tem
Matteson, subsequent to considerable research, felt Council lacks
ability to do anyth'ing about the water problem, saw no alternatives at
the present time Councilman Petta noted Council's direction that
staff cooperate with Riverside Highland Water Company in an effort to
acquire State financing for capital improvements to alleviate cost to
the consumer Finance Director Schwab related no change in status of
securing long term financing through the State Clean Water Bond Act,
noted a joint powers authority has been investigated, however, that
type of agreement would require the City's involvement with management
and direction of the Water Company. Councilman Petta requested
Council's concurrence that staff be directed to pursue that avenue
Dick Rollins, 22700 DeBerry, relative to the upcoming elections, felt
proud that Grand Terrace has never resorted to poor political campaign
practices as other cities and states have done. Emphasized importance
of individuals familiarizing themselves with issues and candidates
prior to voting
Nabih Akar, 22491 DeBerry, owner of Arco station located at 22087
Barton Road, related prior Council approval of opening a mini -mart at
same location contingent upon his dedication of 11 feet of land to the
City and his aqreement to share the expenses ($22,500) of widening
Michigan Street After two years of negotiations, was finally able to
buy the property and is now ready to dedicate and share with the
expenses to widen Michigan, therefore, requests renewal of previously
approved building permit, currently expired, noted it was not approved
by the Planning Commission due to the proposed colors of the
structure, which he has no power to change since they are Arco
colors
Councilwoman Pfennighausen advised the project was continued to the
November 3 Planning Commission meeting, not denied, felt it ridiculous
a project is delayed two years - the City cannot afford continual
harassment of businesses, felt the Planning Commission should be made
aware of the revenue businesses generate and encouraged to move such
projects along, and those members who continue harassment should be
removed
Councilman Petta, not knowing the facts, wished not to make
accusations against the Planning Commission, questioned and it was
clarified the permit has been approved and extended with exception of
the architectural review relative to the building colors, noted this
matter would not come before Council unless in the form of an appeal.
City Attorney Hopkins advised Council can direct the Planning

Page 3
Commission to reach a decision at its next meeting and, if it does
not, an appeal can then be considered
CC-86-251 Motion by Councilman Petta, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, ALL
AYES, to direct the Planning Commission to reach a decision on this
matter at its November 3, 1986 meeting
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson felt the Planning Commission is doing a good
job and often takes undeserved criticism, relative to the two-year
delay in Mr Akar's project, wanted it clear Mr Akar did not say he
was being harassed, the two-year delay was due to his inability to
secure the land for—dedicatson to the_City_.I-I, pond�iI
Councilwoman Pfennlghau_sen relative to whether fair and`equitablef
Ebeen
noeen received from the Planning Commission, Mr. Akar?
ised he would not have come before Council_ if he felt that to-havethe case
Councilman Evans noted his attendance at the last Planning Commission
meeting, was amazed this item was delayed because of colors, noting
there is no theme for colors along Barton Road at this time, stated
one Commissioner even suggested he move his building. Although Mr
Akar's two-year delay may have been economics, he is now ready to
proceed and is being delayed or possibly stopped due to a color
issue Felt this is harassment when specifics are not given.
Councilman Petta objected to accusations that the Planning Commission
is harassing people, noting the delay was due to conditions Mr Akar
had to overcome Noted the meeting is being televised, felt members
should be present when any accusations are made. Felt if there is any
fault, it lies with the Council because it gave the Planning
Commission authority to make decisions, even on colors Concurred
with Mr Akar's point on colors and felt the Planning Commission will
make the right decision at the next meeting and, if not satisfactory,
advised Mr Akar can then come before Council
Richard Britton, a Grand Terrace resident for 12 years currently
residing in Newport Beach, advised he still retains an ownership in
the Town and Country Professional Center as well as the 6.9 acres
directly behind Related his decision to become active to expedite
the project for finalization and questioned requirements
City Engineer Kicak advised of his continuing attempts to resolve the
s alignment issue of the roadway crossing Gage Canal, the project was
submitted to the Planning Commission with recommendations at the last
meeting and, due to length of previous Agenda items, was continued
until the next meeting (November 3), at which it will be the first
Agenda item
Councilman Evans questioned and was advised his prior recommendation
for the Planning Commission to outline some basic themes and
guidelines for developers had not been accomplished, therefore, felt
it is time to give direction for Planning Commission workshops to
initiate that project
Council related a Master Plan had been -developed for Areas 10,-11, and,
12 with developers' -participation, however, due to a request to formo,
an assessment distr_i_ct_whieh was denied, the plan fell through%' �

three crossing not to be adequate Previously supported the City
expending funds for the crossings when a large project in conjunction
with a unified Master Plan was proposed, which would have benefited
the City, however, at this time, would only support agreement with
McMillin Development if they agree to pay the full $30,000 for the
crossings with no reimbursement by the City, since it will be of
benefit to them Councilman Evans indicated concurrence if developer
is willing to bear all costs
Council Minutes - 10/23/86
Page 8
Mayor Pro Tem Matteson, with Mr Hopkins concurring, suggested
entering into escrow under the condition that McMillin Development
accept full cost, thereby necessitating another agreement.
Brian Urtnowski, Attorney for McMillin Development, stated he could
agree contingent upon McMillin Development's consent if Council votes
on the proposal this evening
Councilman Evans opposed expending further funds due to no guarantee
the project will be accomplished. Mr Hopkins stated the City would
not expend additional funds if McMillin Development agrees, however,
if Council disapproves the proposal before them, the project will fall
through and the City will still be out the $15,000 expended thusfar
for attorney and litigation guarantee fees, without having acquired
anything Mr. Urtnowski noted acquisition of rights -of -way will
provide that portion of Gage Canal for future public access and would

SUBJECT NO PARKING AREAS AT DEBERRY STREET AND ORIOLE AVENUE
FUNDING REQUIRED
NO FUNDING REQUIRED xx
At the last City Council meeting, discussion regarding the parking and the
visibility problem at the intersection of DeBerry Street and Oriole Avenue
was discussed.
The Staff reviewed the existing conditions and is recommending that parking
be restricted 45' from the curb line intersections of Oriole Avenue and
DeBerry Street, east and west on DeBerry and northerly on Oriole
This proposal, if approved by the City Council, would provide reasonable
visibility for traffic traveling southerly on Oriole and east and west on
DeBerry. A large van or truck, however, parked even within the permitted
parking area would, even under these conditions, restrict visibility. With
the no parking as proposed, adequate length of curb remains unpainted between
the driveways and the proposed no parking zone to provide for at least one
car to be parked along the frontage of the parcels being affected by this
proposal.
STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THE CITY COUNCIL ADOPT THE ATTACHED RESOLUTION RESTRICTING
PARKING IN THE VICINITY OF THAT INTERSECTION.

SUBJECT CROSSWALK AT CANAL STREET AND BARTON ROAD.
FUNDING REQUIRED xx
NO FUNDING REQUIRED
The City Council, sometime ago, directed the Staff to investigate the
possibility of installing a crosswalk at the intersection of Canal Street
and Barton Road. The Staff has looked into the matter and finds that the
installation of the crosswalk at this time would cost approximately
$5,100 00, $4,600.00 of which is to relocate the flashing yellow signal
now located at Barton Road and Michigan. It will cost approximately $500 00
for the striping of the crosswalk.
A review of the conditions at that particular location indicates that there
are no sidewalks on either side of Canal Street at this time. However,
reconstruction and widening of Barton Road proposes construction of sidewalks
on the Westerly side of Canal Street, and, the installation of sidewalks
along the frontage of Barton Road. Attached, for your information, is a
copy of a plan showing the existing and proposed conditions with respect to
the improvements proposed at that particular intersection.
In view of the fact that there are no sidewalks on Canal Street at this time,
and during the inclement weather the area is experiencing drainage problems,
it would not be appropriate, at this time, to consider the installation of
the crosswalk However, we would recommend that the crosswalk be considered, and
the flashing signal relocation, in conjunction with Barton Road improvement project.
STAFF RECOMMENDS THAT THE ABOVE IMPROVEMENT BE COMPLETED IN CONJUNCTION WITH
THE IMPROVEMENTS OF BARTON ROAD WIDENING.

Dear Council Members TITLE
A2t!!:f
On Monday October 20, 1986 the planning commission approved a conditional
use permit for the Lawson Terrace Apartments to be constructed on Grand
Terrace Rd
We the undersigned would like to appeal this decision for the following
reasons
1 The R3 zoning ordinance allows for the construction
of nine units per acre The conditional use permit
increases this allotment to twelve units per acre.
We believe this violates the intent of the R3 zoning
-2. Grand Terrace Road is a rural area with the majority
of the homes along the street located on large lots,
some on several acres The construction of the apart-
ment units will seriously erode the rural character
of the area
3 At the present time there exists a serious water drain-
age problem along Grand Terrace Rd The property on the
west side of Grand Terrace Rd is considerably lower
then the east side which results in some flooding during
heavy rains at present The construction of the apart-
ment units will lead to increased runoff and subsequent
damage from flooding on the west side of the street
.4 According to the city engineer the project will generate
approximately two huncred vehicles per day traveling a-
long Grand Terrace Rd It should be noted that Grand
Terrace Rd is not properly maintained now, the black top
is breaking off and the roadway is eroding along the west
side of the street Increased traffic will only serve to
exacerbate the condition In addition it is very diffi-
cult to exit Gran& Terrace Road onto Barton Road at peak
traffic periods Once again, the increased traffic will
increase this problem

GEOLOGY AND SOILS
According to the General Plan Master Environmental Assessment (MEA) , the
City of Grand Terrace is comprised of three distinctive topographical
regions Santa Ana River floodplain , broad alluvial terrace, and steep
hills. City elevations range from 900 feet to 2,428 feet above mean sea
level The project is located in the terrace area which is comprised of
sandy loam soils The subject property ascends gently from west to east
with approximately to
,feet in elevation difference The elevation would
be approximately 975 feet to 985 feet on -site.
Grand Terrace is situated 'in a seismically active region There are five
active fault zones to the northeast of the City. The primary hazards
associated with seismic activity are surface rupture, groundshaking, and
ground failure During an earthquake the City could sustain considerable
damage including shifting of buildings from foundations, breakage of under-
ground pipes, and opening of ground cracks These faults include an
unnamed fault, 2,500 feet to the northeast, Rialto -Colton Fault, 3,500
feet to the northeast, San Jacinto Fault, 4,000 feet to the northeast;
Loma Linda, 12,500 feet to the northeast, and the San Andreas Fault, 9
miles to the northeast Additionally, the Cucamonga Fault is located 13 5
miles to the north and the Chino -Elsinore Fault is 20 miles to the south-
east.
The Project Site is located in a seismic zone designation of strong to
very strong shaking potential Medium density residential uses are
considered provisionally suitable.
The General Plan notes that soils in the City have few limitations or
hazards, except those found in the hillsides. Soil types found in the
City are suitable for cultivated crops, pastures, range, woodlands, and
wild life.
Further, the General Plan notes that despite the suitability of soils for
agriculture use, the amount of community urbanization and pressure for
additional development severely limits the viability of agriculture as a
permanent ldnd use The transition of agriculture to more urbanized uses
is expected and is consistent with the City's objectives for future land
development with its boundaries
The proposed development will require some import fills to create building
gads and the internal alley circulation system.
The proposed development is consistent with the goals and policies of the
General Plan with regards to geologic and seismic hazards and soils and
agriculture resources Further, there are no on -site geological
constraints that limit the development potential of the property

CI
HYDROLOGY
According to the General Plan MEA, the only potential flood hazard area in
the City of Grand Terrace is immediately adjacent to the Santa Ana River
in the Northwest portion of the City
The project site is located in,the terrace area of the city outside of the
floodplain The rainwater sheet flows from east to west over the project
site. No underground drainage system is proposed for this project Storm
Drain Capital Improvement Fund Fees are $450 per unit The project is con-
sistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan regarding flood
hazards
NOISE
According to the General Plan and MEA, in Grand Terrace there are two
principle sources of noise emissions which reach or exceed 65dB CNEL.
Tnese sources are the Southern Pacific and Santa Fe Railroad lines and the
Riverside Freeway located in the west and northwestern portions of the
city. Noise associated with vehicles is expected to increase as more
development in the city occurs
The project is located 700 feet from the Riverside Freeway and 1600 feet
from the Southern Pacific Railroad Because of the distance from the free-
way and railroad no special sound attenuating insulation will be required
to keep interior noise levels at acceptable limits
BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
According to the General Plan and MEA, the City of Grand Terrace has been
heavily impacted by human activity Steep hillside areas in the eastern
portion of the City are undeveloped, supporting only appreciable native
plant and wildlife species Hillside plant species are limited to a
variety of grasses, annuals, and small shrubs Wildlife includes insects,
reptiles, birds, and small animals and small mammals such as coyotes,
raccoons, and rabbits
The Project site is vacant and has been disced and gives no habitat for
vegetation and wildlife No rare of endangered species are known to exist
within the city or on -site Subsequently, the Project site has an
extremely low biological value

According to the General Plan and MEA, there are no known archaeological
or paleontological sites within the city Prior agriculture activity
throughout most of the city indicates that the likelihood for finding such
resources is remote The General Plan does note that there may be a need
for archaeological surveys on vacant sites, especially if these sites have
not been previously utilized
In 1980 the Project site was conditionally aoproved by the City for a 31-unit
ccndominium site At that time no evidence of archaelogical, paleontological,
or historical importance was found The presence of soils formed in alluvium
suggest the lack of paleontological resources
There are no known pre-1900 structures in the City of Grand Terrace A
city lanchiark, the Grand Terrace School, is located on Barton Road east of
the Riverside Freeway There are no structures on the site
AIR QUALITY
ccor ing to the General Plan and MEA, the City of Grand Terrace is
severely impacted from downwind air pollution sources Air currents pass
over heavily urbanized and industrial regions to the west and into the
city Poor air quality is compounded by te-in perature inversions This
inversion layer contains air highly polluted with visibility degrading
aerosols and invisible gaseous pollutants This condition continues and
i9creases in concentration until the inversion breaks or surface winds
increase to disperse the pollutants.
ambient air quality is established by State and Federal standards adopted
to protect public health with a margin of safety Air quality trends in
the South Coast Air Basin do not seem to be improving enough to meet 1987
standards Therefore, he Air Quality Management Plan (AQMP) has been
established to permit continued but regulated rapid growth while still
achieving clean air standards In land development, requirements for
growth consistent with the AQMP are not based on a single project.
I,stead, overall regional traffic generation is considered during planning
Local regulatory agencies may amend their General Plans to accoranodate
changing conditions as long as standards are .met
The proposed Project is consistent with the existing General Plan and
-rojected development trends for future growth in the City Consequently,
:ne project is consistent with growtn projections of the AQMP The
Droject will not generate air pollutants in excess of the level assumed in
:he Ci ty's Master Environmental Assessment wnich accompanies the General
Plan

E`IERGY
The City of Grand Terrace General Plan encourages energy conservation by
the incorporation of design standards for new development which minimizes
the consumption of non-renewable energy resources All Title 24 require-
ments will be met in the design and construction of the project If
feasible, other energy conservation techniques will be incorporated into
t"e project.
Tar.FFIC AND CIRCULATION
rccording to the General Plan and MEA, the primary thoroughfare through
the City is Interstate 215, a six -lane freeway with interchanges at
Washington Street, Barton Road, and Iowa Avenue Present freeway peak
hour volumes are at a Level of Service (LOS) C The main north -south
arterial tnrough the City is Mt Vernon Avenue. finis roadway presently
operates at LOS A where the road has been widened and LOS B wnere the road
has not been widened The main east -west arterial is Barton Road which
also varies in width Barton Road is the most heavily utilized street in
the City and presently operates at LOS A and B
According to the MEA, traffic circulation patterns at proposed City build -
out are projected to follow current patterns Two future roads are
proposed to complete the Grand Terrace roadway system. Cor-In.erce Way will
be extended This secondary highway intersects Micnigan Avenue south of
Barton Road Tne second future street is the extension of Observation
Drive, a collector road linking the eastern ends of Main Street, Pico
Street, Van Buren Street, De Berry Street, and Palm Avenue
Future buildout has been defined in the General ?ian MEA as the year 2006
The traffic estimates for future buildout indicate tnat Main Street, wnich
is the southern border of the City will continue operating at LOS A
(luster Environmental Assessment, Appendix F)
Tne Project site is not involved in_ any of the street extensions.
Capital Improvement Fund Fees are $413 00 per unit
?_BLIC SERVICES AND UTILITIES
Tne following discusses services presently provided to the City and which
can serve the project site. The background information was obtained from
.rye General Plan and General Plan MEA
WATER
The City is served by the Riverside Highland Water Company. The City
relies on the Riverside Highland 'dater Company for its water supply The
company provides water for both domestic and agricultural uses. At the
present, new �vater lines are being constructed in the City. L1 n e s are
based upon an estimation of current and future development._

payable at $1,500 00 per unit
F.-RE SERVICE
The California Department of Forestry provides fire protection services to
the City of Grand Terrace. The General Plan indicates that there is
sufficient ,pater supply for adequate fire protection Also, the project
is not located in a fire nazard area.
SChOOLS
The City is within the boundaries of the Colton Unified School District
There are three schools within the City Terrace View Elementary, Grand
Terrace Elementary and Terrace Hills Junior High All high school
students attend Colton High School in the City of Colton. The General
Plan indicates that as of May 1983, Terrace 'thew Elementary School and
Terrace Hills Junior High School were at capacity. Grand Terrace
lementary School nas near capacity Consequently, the City of Grand
�arrace nas adopted an existing ordinance Ahich would require housing
developers to provide funds for additional school facilities This
.:,velopmnent fee is $1,678 per residential unit
T-erefore, the proposed Lawson Terrace Apartments development will be required
.o conzrloute S62,086 to funding of new facilities in accordance with the pro-
2osed orainarce
D-'7KS kJD RECREATION
7'3rk and recreational facilities are provided through Grand Terrace
:;,—unity Services Deoartm—ent There is an existing public ballpark in
_ne City T::rrrace hills Coy , unity Park, a 5 35 acre facility, is located

The City also uses school playgrounds when school is not in session.
These playgrounds are otimed and maintained by the Colton Unified School
District The City has considered the acquisition of a six -acre park site
from Southern California Edison Company The site is located on Main
Street adjacent to the Highgrove Steam Plant. The City has recently
acquired a linear park south of Barton Road which is over the California
Aquaduct.
The Grand Terrace General Plan encourages new residential developments to
provide recreational opportunities for its residents. The City uses a
generation rate of three acres per 1,000 residents Tne proposed develop-
,ent will h_ve 37 Townnouse apart ents Assuming 2 6 persons per unit,
the projec. will generate 95 2 persons Tnerefore, the project contrib-
utes to the need for parkland of approximately 29 acres City Ordinance
44 and Resolution 818 provide specific standards and implementing proce-
dures in accordance with the application of Quimby Act Fees. The City has
established park fees of $303 per each apartment Therefore, park fees
for the project would be $11,211:
SOLID WASTE
Tne Loma Linda Disposal Company serves the majority of the City of Grand
Terrace Solid waste is currently hauled to the San Bernardino County
Colson landfill site. Plans call for this site to cease operations in the
near future At such time, solid waste would be transported to the
County's San Timoteo landfill site This landfill is expected to be
capable of adequately service the project site
ELECTRICITY
Electricity is supplied to the City from Southern California Edison
Company SE,reet lights will be designed and installed per Edison specifi-
cations Tnere are no foreseen prpolens in serving the City into the
