COUNCIL MINUTES
REGULAR MEETING - JUNE 24, 1982
A regular Meeting of the City Council of the City of Grand Terrace was called to
order at the Terrace View Elementary School, 22731 Grand Terrace Road, Grand
Terrace, California, on June 24, 1982, at 5:40 p.m.
PRESENT: Hugh J. Grant, Mayor
Jim Rigley, Mayor Pro Tempore
Tony Petta, Councilman
Roy W. Nix, Councilman
Barbara Pfennighausen, Councilwoman
Seth Armstead, City Manager
Ivan Hopkins, City Attorney
Joe Kicak, City Engineer
Myrna Erway, City Clerk
ABSENT: None
The meeting was opened with invocation by Reverend Harold Lorimer, retired,
followed by the Pledge of Allegiance, led by Ed Clark.
JOINT SESSION - CITY COUNCIL/CRA
Mayor Grant stated the purpose of the Joint Meeting is to review the
revised agreement submitted by Barmakian, Wolff, Lang, Christopher
Architects, whom the Agency selected for the architectural design of
the Civic Center and Fire Station, and to consider including the
Community Center in the architectural design, since the comparative
costs of including the Community Center are minimal.
The City Manager recommended taking advantage of the Artchitects'
rates at this time so that, when funds become available, the
drawings would be ready.
City Attorney Hopkins stated it was his observation that the revised
contract is $3,000 less, so for that small amount of money, should
have plans on the shelf if two presumptions are correct that:
(1) The Architect can design the Community Center, since the site
has not been selected; and (2) if the original agreement does not
require building all three facilities at once - felt that particular
requirement could be negotiated.
Councilman Nix clarified the cost difference is $16,000 rather than
$3,000; stated, with Councilman Rigley concurring, that the contract
was badly negotiated if all facilities must be designed to get a
better price, and feels can do better; felt situation would be

different had negotiations been conducted with two top firms as
previously directed, but was informed it was illegal.
Further points raised in discussion were that the contract should
not be executed until satisfactory negotiations are completed and
that consideration should be given to negotiating with the second
choice if the negotiations are unsatisfactory.
CC-82-144 Motion by Councilman Rigley, Second by Councilman Nix, not to
reconsider including a Community Center in the architectural design.
Following clarification, Motion No. CC-82-144 carried, 4-1, with
Mayor Grant voting NOE.
Attorney Hopkins stated it would not have been illegal to negotiate
with both firms, since this was not a formal bidding process; RFP's
are informal. Ordinarily further negotiations could be conducted;
however, since an agreement was approved, awaiting execution by the
Mayor, and since the architect has been on the site and has expended
monies, based on the fact he has an agreement, would not recommend
negotiating with the second choice, because the City might have to
expend monies for work done to date.
The Executive Director stated Staff, Mr. Wolff, and his assistant
visited the Fire Station to determine the amount of land which will
be required for the Fire Station and to discuss architectural plans
and drawings with Don Banghart.
Council questioned the advisability of proceeding on this matter
prior to execution of the contract; agreed it would be unfair to
this Firm to negotiate with the second Firm, since the negotiations
and price of this Firm are now known.
CC-82-145 Motion by Councilman Nix, Second by Councilman Petta, to direct
Staff to renegotiate the contract with Barmakian, Wolff, Lang,
Christopher Architects for the Civic Center and Fire Station and to
provide a rational explanation for the bottom -line price for the
structures authorized.
City Attorney Hopkins clarified that action taken at the June 9
meeting would be set aside, pending a report from Staff, either with
a renegotiated figure or rational action.
It was clarified that a final decision could be made on July 8 if
the report is received from Staff on the negotiations, and that
final approval by the City Council and the Community Redevelopment
Agency will be required.
Staff was directed to send a letter to Barmakian, Wolff, Lang,
Christopher Architects clearly stating that the contract, as
presented, is not ready for execution and, until a final agreement
has been approved and executed, the Firm is to cease and desist from
expending further monies.
Following discussion, Motion No. CC-82-145 carried, ALL AYES.

RESOLUTION NO. 82-
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE,
CALIFORNIA DECLARING ANY SALARY ADJUSTMENTS FOR FY 1982-83 SHALL BE
EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 1982.
Council opposed this Resolution, feeling if salary adjustments are
made at a later date, the effective date can be established at that
time. This Resolution was not adopted.
RESOLUTION NO. 82-
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE,
CALIFORNIA, SUPPORTING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF A UNIFORM EQUITABLE
FORMULA FOR THE DISTRIBUTION OF TAXES UPON ANNEXATION.
Council questioned if the questions previously raised had been
answered satisfactorily.
Staff stated this is the League of California Cities' position; the
five questions still are unanswered; felt that this Resolution would
assist the other cities at this time and could then continue to
resolve the problems.
Council concurred that this Resolution should not be adopted until
all matters are resolved satisfactorily.
UTILITY RATES AND CITY RELATED PROJECTS
Mr. Joe Falkner, Regional Manager for Southern California Edison
Company, gave a presentation regarding the services provided by
Southern California Edison Company, beneficial programs initiated by
the Company, and the reasons for increased rates. Reviewed the
franchise payments made to the City and taxes paid to the City and
County. Stated there is a reserve fund for the City of $36,246 for
Rule -Twenty money to underground lines. Stated that in 1979 the
Company converted all the lights in the City from mercury vapor to
high pressure sodium at a considerable cost savings to the City.
Mr. Falkner was questioned on the status of changing the addresses
of residents on billings, and stated the change probably would not
occur for two or three years, since the City has no separate zip
code.
COMMISSION & COMMITTEE REPORTS
PLANNING COMMISSION
Commissioner Sanford Collins stated that the possibility of the City
initiating a zone change in an area between the railroad tracks and
La Cadena was discussed at the recent Planning Commission Meeting.
Recommended instructing Staff to inform owners they are required to

Page four -
6/24/82
The Planning Director clarified that Council had directed the
Planning commission to study a general plan amendment and zone
change in response to a letter from Mr. Ferris' attorney and to
submit recommendations to Council regarding this matter.
Mayor Grant stated a Joint Meeting with the Council and the Planning
Commission is being planned in July for the purpose of
reestablishing the methodology in terms of what is expected from the

addressing this matter at that time.

not available.
CC-82-151 Motion by Councilman Petta, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen,
that a key to the restroom facilities at Terrace Hills Community
Park be provided to Dick Rollins.
Mayor Grant stated, with Councilman Nix concurring, his vote on this
Motion has nothing to do with the key - doesn't feel that kind of
responsiblity should be imposed on Mr. Rollins; feels City personnel
should handle.

SIGNS AT TERRACE HILLS COMMUNITY PARK
The Planning Director, representing the Community Services Director,
advised Council of the proposed signs to be placed at the park.
Recommended establishment of a sign similar to the BIA signs and a
glass -enclosed bulletin board for public notices and events at the
park. Recommended approving an institutional sign as defined by
Section 23.190, Subsection B, of the Zoning Ordinance.
Council concurred with a bulletin board to include legal
restrictions - prefers a positive approach, rather than highlighting
legal restrictions.
Dick Rollins stated there will be a sign placed at the entrance for
a cost of approximately $600.00 stating "Terrace Hills Community
Park." Further stated the Sheriff advised the City must post all
ordinances relating to regulations to be enforced.
Recess was called at 7:31 p.m., and reconvened at 7:44 p.m., with
all members present.
Council concurred with the placement of a sign indicating the name
of the park at the entrance, with the placement of additional sign
elsewhere showing the prohibitions.

to proceed with an institutional sign as defined by Section 23.190,

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION
Dr. Terry McDuffy, 11830 South Mt. Vernon, stated he previously
addressed Council regarding Pet Prevent -A -Care making application
Page six -
6/24/82
for and receiving a City Business License, and scheduling a clinic
which was in violation of the Zoning Ordinance. This matter was
brought to the Firm's attention by registered letter in advance of
the clinic. They chose to ignore it, and held the clinic, which was
a blatant violation of the law. Stated adequate evidence exists
that the clinic was held; feels the laws should be enforced and the
people should be prosecuted and fined; the Firm still has a valid
City Business License. Feels appropriate action should be taken if
the City is to maintain credibility with the citizens.
Council concurred enforcement is necessary and questioned options.
City Attorney Hopkins said the police won't enforce Zoning
Ordinances; enforcement is difficult because of limited personnel;
the Business License expires June 30; could probably successfully
prosecute Prevent -A -Care under the Zoning Ordinance, but doesn't
know what action the judge would take.
Dr. McDuffey stated it appears to be an open and shut case of a
blatant violation; questioned if the City Council is going to
ignore; it is never profitable to prosecute law enforcement, but is
a question of whether or not Council is going to take a firm stand
and get people to obey the City ordinances.
CC-82-154 Motion by Councilman Nix, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, ALL
AYES, to direct Staff to immediately cancel the Business License for
Pet Prevent -A -Care and to send a strong communication to the Firm
stating that, because it was in violation, they are not welcome to
attempt to secure another Business License in the future.
City Attorney Hopkins recommended including that, should they
attempt to establish the same type of operation in the City, we will
vigorously enforce all applicable laws within the City.

other as required by law, and recommended amending the General Plan

The Planning Director stated she had recommended, with the Planning
Commission concurring, changing the number of Planning Commissioners
from nine to seven.
Mayor Grant opened Public Hearing on the matter.
Supporting Testimony
Interim Chairman Doug Erway stated that the Planning Commission is
in favor of the Ordinance; doesn't feel it will restrict the
Planning Commission or short-change the community by having fewer
members; stated there has been a problem getting a quorum of five
members to conduct necessary business.
Opposing Testimony
None
Mayor Grant closed Public Hearing on the matter.
Council discussed the attendance records and the reason, effect, and
procedure to follow if reducing the number of Commissioners to
seven. It was clarified that if the Ordinance is adopted, the terms
Page eight -
6/24/82
of the present members with terms expiring June 30, 1982, could be
extended to August 12, the time that the Ordinance would become
effective, and to make the appointments at that time.
Councilman Rigley recommmended retaining a nine -member Commission,
since all members wish to continue, and there seems to be no
apparent reason to reduce the number.
Councilman Petta recommended reinstating all members at this time
and, through attrition, reduce the number of Commissioners to seven.
Motion by Councilman Petta, Second by Councilman Nix, to reinstate
all of the Commission Members whose terms expire June 30, 1982, and
to reduce the number of Commissioners to seven only through
attrition.
Mayor Grant requested Interim Chairman Doug Erway to indicate some
of the discussion prior to the Commission taking action on this
matter. Mr. Erway stated he didn't feel he could give accurate
statements. It was voted upon by the Commission and determined
to recommend reducing the size. Some Commissioners indicated they
did not wish to continue serving, but possibly have changed their
minds.
Council noted that the City has one of the best Planning
Commissions; even though the attendance records show a high absentee
rate, questioned if the difficulty getting a quorum was sufficient
to justify reducing the membership.
The Planning Director stated they had a particularly difficult time
getting quorums at study sessions. The City Attorney stated there
were a few times when the meetings had not started on time, due to
lack of a quorum.
Mayor Grant opened the meeting to public participation.
Commissioner Sanford Collins recommended, with Mr. Erway concurring,
not continuing with eight members - would prefer an odd number.
Mayor Grant closed the meeting to public participation.
Councilman Nix indicated he will vote against this Motion based on
discussion and the objections voiced against an eight -member
Commission; if this Motion doesn't pass, will move to appoint a
nine -member Commission.
Following discussion, the Motion failed 1-4, with Councilman Petta
voting AYE.
CC-82-157 Motion by Councilman Nix, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, ALL
AYES, to reappoint the following individuals on the Planning
Commission for terms to expire June 30, 1986: Sanford Collins; Vern
Andress; Winifred Bartel; and Gerald Cole and to consider the
appointment of a ninth member for the Planning Commission at the
next Council Meeting.

REVENUE SHARING
The City Clerk advised that the purpose of this Public Hearing is to
allow the citizens to give input as to how they would desire
expending these funds for FY 1982-83; a Public Hearing will be held
at the next City Council meeting to allow citizen input on Staff's
recommendation regarding the proposed use of the funds.
Mayor Grant opened Public Hearing on the matter. Sanford Collins,
22697 Brentwood, stated that the Planning Commission had discussed
the beautification of the City, at which time it was noted that Mt.
Vernon and Barton Road still have many areas that have not been
developed and widened; recommended expending the funds in this area.
Barney Karger, 11668 Bernardo Way, stated he has been the recipient
of some of these funds on widening of streets; this is the only City
he is aware of that does this; disagrees with this procedure and
feels the property owners should pay for improvements and can
legally be required to do so; concurs that Barton Road and Michigan
should be widened.
Mayor Grant closed the Public Hearing.
Councilman Petta recommended dividing the funds between City
beautification and law enforcement.
RESOLUTION NO. 82-27
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE,
CALIFORNIA, ESTABLISHING THE FY 1982-83 APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT
PURSUANT TO ARTICLE XIII-B OF THE STATE CONSTITUTION AS REQUIRED BY
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 7910.
The Finance/Administrative Services Officer advised that Article
XIII-B established an appropriations limit whereby municipal budgets
can only be increased in accordance with CIP and population
increases; stated the tax proceeds indicate that no funds will need
to be returned to the State. Recommended adoption of the
Resolution.
Mayor Grant opened Public Hearing on the matter, and closed Public
Hearing, there being no testimony either for or against the matter.
Councilman Nix stated that if all cities are proceeding in this
matter, the real intent of this legislation is being averted.
Mr. Clark stated if inflation does not continue to increase and
population hits a peak, there could be a problem; a few cities are
in that position at this time.
Motion by Councilman Petta, Second by Mayor Grant, ALL AYES, to
adopt Resolution No. 82-27. 0

In response to a question as to the increase represented on

on Page XVII, substitute Resolution No. 81-50 for Resolution
No. 81-72.

SITE PLAN 82-6
Request: Appeal of Planning Commission Condition
requiring concrete tile roofs.
Applicant: J. B. Karger.
The Planning Director advised this matter had been continued from
the June 9 Meeting; stated Mr. Karger had recommended at the June 9
meeting placing all tile roofs, except directly underneath the solar
heating and air conditioning units, with a six foot wide walkway to
allow servicing of the units, and that he was opposed to all
composition roofs; Building & Safety is not opposed to this
recommendation; that alternative had not been discussed with the
Planning Commission.
J. B. Karger, 11668 Bernardo Way, reviewed portions of the
Architectural Ordinance and distributed photographs of houses which
have combination roofs, stressing the fact that this is a common
practice throughout the City; stated willingness to put concrete
tile roofs in the front and on the first ten feet from Mt. Vernon
and on Mirado, the only places which would be visable from the
street, and would place composition roofs in the back which would
closely match the concrete tile; composition material will also be
placed underneath the solar water heater, and for another two or
three feet, to permit servicing.
CC-82-172 Motion by Councilman Nix, Second by Councilwoman Pfennighausen, to
approve the appeal, with the condition that shake tile roofs will be
placed on the front side facing the streets and also on
approximately 10 feet of the sides fronting on Mt. Vernon and
Mirado, with composition material to be placed on the back side of
the remainder of the roofs and underneath the solar panels plus 2 -
3 feet to permit servicing.
With clarification that the composition material is to match as
closely as possible to the concrete tile, the Motion No. CC-82-172
carried, ALL AYES.
