STATE PARK BOND ACT OF 1980
Mayor Tillinghast advised Council that there has been contact among
some of the cities and the County of San Bernardino regarding this
matter, since Council last discussed the matter. He stated that the
City of Loma Linda has reconsidered its position on the State Park
Bond Act of 1980, and has voted to re-enter into negotiations
regarding this matter.
The Mayor stated he had been in contact with Supervisor Hammock,
Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, regarding various items of
mutual interest to the seventeen cities of the County, and the
County. It is felt that it would be beneficial to resolve the
issue of the disbursement of the State Park Bond Act Fund. A
suggestion has been made to split the difference between the two
latest stated positions of the cities and the County, which would
result in an increase of approximately $1300-$1400 for the City,
and would seem to be a reasonable compromise for all concerned.
The City's proposal was to receive $28,473 - The County's proposal
was for the City to receive $25,684. Supervisor Hammock stated the
compromise is acceptable to him, and he is not aware of any other
member of the Board of Supervisors to whom it would be objectionable.
Council's general concensus, in discussion, was favorable to the
proposed compromise. Mayor Tillinghast recommended preparation of
a resolution to rescind Resolution No. 81-11, and authorizing a
member, or members, of Council to negotiate with the County, with
the base position that it is acceptable to split the difference,
without stating a specific dollar amount, and who would be authorized
to act on behalf of Council.
CC-81-115 Motion by Mayor Tillinghast, second by Councilman Grant, that Council
rescind Resolution No. 81-07 and adopt a resolution authorizing the
Mayor, or in his absence, Councilman Petta, to act on behalf of the
City in reaching a compromise agreement with the County of San
Bernardino for allocation of the State Park Bond Act Fund of 1980.
The compromise intended by Council is to be in the realm of a
50/50 split between the current position of the County and the
cities of San Bernardino County. Motion carried, ALL AYES.
AB 1743
City Manager Armstead stated the proposed Assembly Bill 1743 would
help keep the City's costs involved in contracting services with
the County to a minimum, since it would not allow the county to
charge overhead other than that related to the specific contract.
Mr. Armstead recommended Council support the proposed legislation.
CC-81-116 Motion by Councilman Rigley, second by Mayor Tillinghast, ALL AYES,
to support the passage of AB 1743, and to send the appropriate
correspondence to the members of the Assembly Local Government
Committee, and other appropriate representatives.
ADJOURN
The Special Meeting of the City Council adjourned at 6:26 p.m. to
a Public Workshop Session to discuss budget matters.
Respectfully submitted,
