City Attorney Hopkins related that Forest City Dillon feels the City put them to exposure by the sale and official statement of the bonds, resulting in their expenditure of $75,000 toward the entire project; thus, changing zoning requirements at this point could result in potential liability for the City." Motion No. CC-86-67 carried, 4-1, with Mayor Grant voting NOE. REQUEST OF BIDS - STREET STRIPING AND TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES (GTB Responding to Councilwoman Pfennighausen relative to specifics, City Engineer Kicak advised implementation of all the Traffic Safety Engineer's requirements would far exceed cost proposed; therefore, plan is to install the most critical traffic safety signs and re -stripe all streets previously striped with the addition of a couple collectors.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Gene McMeans, Manager of Riverside Highland Water Company and Assistant Manager Rich Haubert briefed Council on current water system including breadth and capacities, water quality assurance procedures, improvements, replacement programs, and billing and collection procedures. Councilwoman Pfennighausen questioned delivery and storage systems; requested copy of map outlining the seven-year improvement program including the coloring indicating phasing of the plan. Relative to the map, Mr. McMeans related that as each phase is considered, priorities may change - as one project is phased out, importance of additional projects will be evaluated. Regarding company's intentions to abate vandalism of the 2,000,000 gallon water storage tank, advised bolts have been welded and further plans include installation of a post and gate to preclude access. Completion of new 1,000,000 gallon reservoir on Palm Avenue anticipated in three to four weeks. Discussed engineering plans to upgrade the Lytle Creek line - a pre -bid meeting is projected for April 2, 1986. Advised objective throughout entire planning process is to accomplish all projects in IL line with the City's planning. Responding to Mayor Pro Tem Matteson relative to availability of water when difficulties arise with a particular storage tank, Mr. McMeans advised each zone has more than one tank and transfers can be accomplished; however, many main and distribution lines cannot be isolated, therefore, part of the water system improvement program has been initiated to help alleviate problem by providing more flexibility and redistribution capabilities. Assured company will work closely with staff to coordinate priority of projects so as not to overlap with City and create additional problems. In response to Councilman Evans regarding the rapid deterioration of lines, felt problem was a combination of the corrosive nature of the soil and old age - company plans to install materials to overcome problem. Regarding criteria of selecting priorities of line installation, stated the first was the 24" line to afford ability to fully utilize the Lytle Creek well field, and, second was badly deteriorated lines. Relative to availability of funding, related some funds are available; however, attempting to use those as leverage to secure additional funding from various sources. City Engineer Kicak related staff is investigating possiblities of working weekends to minimize potential problems with school children during construction of the 24" line.

City Engineer Kicak advised he Page 3 - (3/27/86) investigated complaint and related solving problem would entail reconstruction of the curb, gutter, and sidewalk; advised similar problems exist throughout the City; therefore, to correct this particular problem would require a major expenditure, thereby setting a precedent for others with similar cases. Advised staff could provide projected costs with respect to all problem areas for submission to Council; did not see problem as major, but more one of maintenance. Related situation can be temporarily corrected by sweeping debris from the gutter, but not the ultimate solution. Mayor Grant expressed importance of knowing the costs to determine feasibility of City's involvement. Ed O'Neal, 22608 Minona, referenced editorial in the Sun Telegram wherein reference was made to a Committee in Victor Valley appointed to investigate methods of funding and implementation relative to long range planning; felt a similar Committee should be established, not responsible to anyone except various elected entities - will report additional information as it becomes available.

Councilman Petta related an increase to $4,996.00 in estimated costs for carpeting the Community/Senior Center, due to addition of one room which the Lions Club is currently renovating for community use. Mayor Grant clarified the proposed project proposals are merely recommendations and invited public participation. Responding to Mayor Pro Tem Matteson relative to available funding, Planning Director Kicak advised the City's balance for the remainder of this period is approximately $33,000 - monies not utitlized may be carried over to the next year's funding for other projects; related the proposed projects would require competitive bidding.

A S Planning Director Kicak related Planning Commission's decision at their meeting of February 17, 1986, to reject the proposed Tentative Tract Map 13205 and Specific Plan 85-12 located on the northeast corner of Oriole and Main Street. Concerns discussed included size of the homes and the location of an existing corral with respect to the property line of the proposed development. Main reason for denial was strong public opposition, with the Planning Commission in agreement, relative to the proposed size of the homes together with lot size. Advised of Developer's alternate plan subsequently submitted which proposes homes ranging from 1200 to 1700 square feet, priced from $105,000 to $125,000 respectively. Mayor Pro Tem Matteson questioned validity of presenting a new proposal to Council prior to presentation to the Planning Commission. City Attorney Hopkins advised if proposal had not previously been considered by the Planning Commission, it should be resubmitted for review. Councilman Evans felt issue should be continued to allow sufficient time to review specific plan and definitive criteria. Following discussion and clarification, Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Matteson to deny appeal and refer new proposal for Tentative Tract Map 13205 and Specific Plan 85-12 back to the Planning Commission. Motion died for lack of second. Councilman Petta, with Mayor Grant in concurrence, felt Council should hear input from both the Developer and public. Mayor Grant opened Public Hearing. Bill Storm, representing T.J. Austyn, related, due to the current economic climate and decline of interest rates, the feasibility of submitting a new proposal to meet with conditions of approval imposed by the Planning Commission; discussed specifics of proposal including increased square footage, floor plans, prices and possible solution to the previously mentioned corral problem. Bill McKeever, 12714 Blue Mountain Court, adjacent property owner north of proposed project, cited proposed development as an incompatible land use which would jeopardize property values in the area - felt project could be amended to provide increased lot sizes in areas adjacent to larger parcels; however, expressed concern with development itself - portion of project dead ends on Main Street providing no alternate access to properties to the east. Expressed opposition to both the proposed square footage and lot size. Merrie Anderson, 22872 Main Street, property owner east of proposed development, voiced concern with lack of alternate access for fire protection - questioned developer's plans regarding potential water problems and landscaping to conceal her corrals. 1 Dennis Kidd, 22874 Pico, supported project; felt large lots do not guarantee quality and the City can control the quality through the Planning Commission's Site and Architectural Review process; noted Page 7 - (3/27/86) alternate access to Mrs. Anderson's property was cut off by Mr. McKeever's development project; related necessity for developer to install a new water line which would give Mrs. Anderson additional access to domestic water; felt smaller homes compatible in the Oriole area and larger homes could be constructed on the hill toward Mr. McKeever's property. Grayson Planck, 22872 Main, questioned effect project would have on current zoning. Karen McKeever, 12714 Blue Mountain Court, observed the square footage of houses abutting proposed development range from approximately 2400 to 3300 square feet; voiced concern with preserving current property values and property use. Dale Reiley, 22657 Tanager, felt proposed development would considerably decrease his property value; objected to idea of installing a park in project area. Bill McKeever, 12714 Blue Mountain Court, speaking in rebuttal, advised his development project did not cut off alternate access to Mrs. Anderson's property; related driveway easement was replaced by an improved road in order to maintain access. Mayor Grant closed Public Hearing. CC-86-71 Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Matteson, Second by Mayor Grant, to refer Tentative Tract Map 13205/Specific Plan 85-12 back to the Planning Commission for review of new proposal. Councilman Petta related Title 18 Ad Hoc Committee's recommendation to require a minimum square footage of 1350 per unit; felt idea should be to upgrade rather than downgrade property values. Questioned available protection to current A-1 property owners. City Attorney Hopkins indicated Developer's willingness to grant a covenant to run with the land (recorded document) for future home owners relative to existing adjoining property uses to include their intention to not disrupt or disturb those uses; however, related future land use problems that could arise relative to A-1 property restrictions. The Municipal Code provides that any building or enclosures for fowl or livestock on A-1 property must be erected a minimum of 70 feet from any place used for human habitation, public park, or school on adjoining property and 35 feet from any residential district boundaries or exterior lot lines; related restrictions mentioned could result in great financial hardship for property owners as well as a detriment to current property use. Suggested considering variance process relative to those particular portions of the Zoning Ordinance. Councilwoman Pfennighausen, although sympathetic toward concerns of property owners, felt the horse ranches in question were presently protected by current land use, the General Plan Update process, and Zoning Ordinance. Felt home size should not be of highest consideration, but rather the quality of the development; saw no relationship between the size of a house and the quality of people Page 8 - (3/27/86) generated thereby. Relative to the proposed park previously mentioned, related location would run over an aqueduct to make use of an undevelopable area - noted park not intended to be full scale, but a play area for neighborhood children. Councilman Evans voiced concern with Council being placed in the position of considering an appeal without specifics relative to reasons for denial and prior to review of Specific Plan; requested detailed information be provided in the future. Mayor Pro Tem Matteson observed current and future problems with proposed project; felt size of lots above water line should be at least a half acre to blend in with existing property usage. Councilwoman Pfennighausen, concurring with Motion, felt it should include direction that specifics be provided if resubmitted to Council. Motion No. CC-86-71 carried, ALL AYES. ORDINANCE NO. 100 - AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRANDAC CALIFORNIA, AMENDING THE MUNICIPAL CODE OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE, SECTIONS 18.60.040A, 18.60.040E AND 18.60.040C, PERTAINING TO OFF STREET PARKING (2nd Reading) City Attorney Hopkins read proposed amendment thereto requirement (to be attached district) for multi -family Ordinance had been prepared for single family homes. the title of Ordinance and briefly outlined relative to the single car enclosed garage to the main building of the residential dwelling units; related an alternate including off street parking requirements Councilman Evans expressed confusion with differing views regarding intent of proposed Ordinance as reflected to him by Planning Commissioners and Councilmembers who initially felt it encompassed all residential development, not exclusively multi -family dwellings.

CC-86-72 Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Matteson, Second by Councilman Petta, to adopt Ordinance No. 100 by title only. Councilwoman Pfennighausen voiced objection relative to the recent Planning Commission approval of carports for the Sisters of St. Benedict in relation to the proposed imposition of attached garage requirements on future developments.

Councilman Evans voiced support of certain areas and opposition to others; therefore, could not support Ordinance in its entirety. In light of above comments, Mayor Pro Tem Matteson suggested delaying matter until next meeting to allow sufficient time for review; therefore, withdrew Motion, with its Second not in concurrence.
