to the Lion's Club, Wilden Pump, Azure Hills Church and residents
themselves. Even a simple park bench donated by the Women's Club, for
instance, may help the effort.
The ratio of park land versus population to be increased;
More neighborhood and linear parks for joggers and bikers, rather than
community parks;
Develop short term actions and install portable toilets, drinking fountains,
equipment for children, benches and walkways for strollers;
Facilities to be for all ages;
Lighting to be installed on linear parks for security;

She recommended that the City go to the Grand Terrace Lion's Club and
Women's Club for donations to help develop the parks. She also stated that the
City should look into getting an easement from the site adjacent to Terrace View
4W Elementary School to expand the park land at Susan Petta park, since the City has
the authority to use school grounds. She stated that this agreement was signed

service clubs are always into community activities and may be able to donate
funds to develop park land.
Councilmember Hilkey, stated that if the 6 to 8 lots along Barton were split or
in the center of the lots a center was created that would create a park in the
center of town. He questioned, if you look at an aerial map of town, does the
right-of-ways caused by the power lines and the aqueduct (Gage Canal) form a
square. Could this be used as a bike way or walk way.

private land and there are liabilities involved, however, it is something that is

EMERGENCY PUBLIC PROJECTS
FUNDING REQUIRED
NO FUNDING REQUIRED XX
Chapter 803 of the 1994 state statutes has been amended to allow some flexibility for performing
emergency public projects without the benefit of competitive bidding for projects in excess of
$5,000. Under current law, it is required that a special meeting be held with 24-hour notice and
a 4/5 vote from the City Council to authorize emergency public work. In the event of an
emergency, these requirements would be cumbersome and inefficient.
4 By adoption of the Ordinance, the statute now allows the delegation of the City Manager as the
individual authorized to order emergency public project work. The action would be brought
before the City Council at the next scheduled meeting, where the action would be ratified.
ADOPT AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND
TERRACE AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO PERFORM EMERGENCY
PUBLIC PROJECT WORK.

passage of a resolution by a 4/5 vote setting forth the nature of the emergency and declaring that
the public interest and necessity demand the immediate expenditure of money to safeguard life,
health or property.
4W Chapter 803 of the 1994 Statutes now authorizes two alternate methods to deal with an
emergency. The first is the traditional method of having the City Council dispense with the need
for bidding by making certain findings by a 4/5 vote. The second alternative allows the City
Council to delegate, resolution or ordinance, to the appropriate non -elected officer (including
City Manager or Chief Engineer) the authority to order such action. This authority requires the
non -elected officer to report to the City Council at the next meeting with the reason(s) justifying
why the emergency will not permit the delay attributed to going through the competitive bid
process.
Thereafter, the City Council must review the necessity for continuing the emergency action at
each successive meeting. It must vote to continue with the work at each regularly scheduled
meeting thereafter. The City Council must terminate the action at the earliest possible date that
conditions warrant so that the remainder of the emergency work can be done by noticed bid.
(Public Contract Code Section 22050)
ALTERNATIVES
1. Adopt the proposed ordinance which authorizes the City Manager to order emergency
work, subject to reporting to the City Council on the status of the urgency.
'. Not adopt the proposed ordinance and require all emergency work to be done after the
Council has acted, in a properly noticed hearing, on the emergency.
If you have any further questions or comments, please do not hesitate to call.

STAFF REPORT
CRA ITEM ( ) COUNCIL ITEM (XX) MEETING DATE: November 9, 1995
SUBJECT: RESIDENTIAL PARKING POLICY
FUNDING REQUIRED
NO FUNDING REQUIRED XX
With adoption of the new regulations regarding residential parking, staff is recommending a policy
to the City Council regarding the enforcement of the newly -adopted policy. The newly -adopted
policy has a primary change that now prohibits the parking of commercial vehicles in front yards
and driveways. The vehicles defined in the policy are commercial vehicles, automobiles, mobile
homes, boats, and trailers.
Staff has determined that the Grand Terrace Citizen Patrol could be utilized as a proactive force
fir' in identifying illegally parked commercial vehicles in residential zones, as well as assist in the
enforcement of the 72-hour parking limit on residential streets. The Citizen's Patrol would be the
first contact, with follow-up by the Sheriff's Department for additional ticketing or towing.
At the request of Council Member Singley, staff is researching the enforcement policy currently
in use by the City of Yucaipa, and may request that the Council amend our policy. In addition,
Council Member Buchanan brought up the subject of developing guidelines for code enforcement
issues not related to parking, particularly staff's approach to proactive policing. This item is
scheduled for hearing before the Planning Commission on November 16, and will be brought back
before Council at the first City Council meeting in December.
ADOPT A POLICY TO ENFORCE THE NEWLY -ADOPTED PARKING REGULATIONS
WHICH UTILIZES THE CITIZEN'S PATROL AS THE PRIMARY CONTACT, WITH
FOLLOW-UP BY THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. THIS POLICY WILL HAVE A
PRIMARY EMPHASIS IN THE R-1 7200 ZONE.
