CHECK REGISTER NO. 061181
Following discussion and clarification, Council requested Warrant
No. 1395 for a microwave oven be acted upon separately, since
that item had not already been purchased. Community Services
Director Anstine requested removal of the Mayor's Trophy, a portion
of Warrant No. 1405, since Ron Poll will pay for it as a donation.
CC-81-205 Motion by Councilman Grant, second by Mayor Tillinghast, to approve
Check Register No. 061181, with the exception of Warrant No. 1395
and that portion of Warrant No. 1405 covering the Mayor's Trophy.
Councilman Rigley questioned Council approving Warrants for items
already purchased relating to committees committing City funds.
Mayor Tillinghast stated a policy had been established restricting
committees from making or authorizing purchases, so they do not
have to go through financial disclosure. Feels committees are
starting to exceed their authority. City Attorney Hopkins
clarified that the Check Register items in question were purchased
under the City Manager's approval, and concurred that committees
have no power to make any purchases or authorize and such purchases.
If Council does not approve what the City Manager purchases, they
then would need to give him the guidelines for purchases. Stated
he previously has given opinions and recommendations that committees
be limited to authority of only making recommendations in order to
avoid being included in the Conflict of Interest Code requirements.
Motion CC-81-205 then carried, ALL AYES.
Microwave Oven Purchase - Councilman Grant concurred with Mayor
Tillinghast's earlier statement that such a purchase should be
made by employee contributions. Councilman Nix stated this
vote is a matter of providing guidelines; feels this kind of purchase
is one on which Council should have prior consultation. Councilman
Rigley felt Council should be aware of which items had not already
been purchased. Mayor Tillinghast stated he felt this type of
purchase is approaching the area of employee fringe benefits, a
condition of employment with the City; felt it inappropriate at
this time. City Manager stated employees, in the past, have
purchased their own coffee equipment and have even brought equip-
ment from home. Stated, however, all such purchases VAll' be
discussed with each Councilman prior to the meeting.

all members present.
PROPOSED CIVIC CENTER/COMMUNITY CENTER/FIRE STATION FACILITIES
City Manager Armstead outlined what has been done to house the
City's needs, and that an appointed citizens committee has given
their recommendations for future proposed facilities. Mr. Armstead
also discussed how the Community Redevelopment Agency tax incre-
ment could be used to finance these facilities; and ,in order to
utilize the tax increment, a debt would have to be established.
Mayor Tillinghast opened the meeting to public participation, and
asked for general questions and comments regarding this matter.
The following individuals addressed Council:
Bob Keeney, 12139 Mt. Vernon, outlined his proposal for the City to
purchase a commercial building on Barton Road for a City Hall complex.
Dick Rollins, 22700 DeBerry, stated he conducted a door-to-door poll
questioning 40-50 citizens how they felt about their City government
and a purchase of a two and one-half million dollar Community Center
and City Hall. Stated those citizens indicated a need fora fire
station and for more law enforcement, as well as other improvements;
that the City is not big enough to spend an elaborate sum of money
at this time for a City Hall and Civic Center.
Irwin Campbell, 11960 Kingston, stated his experience has been that
city councils appear to think they know more than the people in the
community. Feels people should be allowed to vote on matters that
are of such consequence, rather than the Council deciding the issues.
Questioned whether the input requested from the citizens that evening
would affect what the Council has already planned. Stated that nobody
gets something for nothing.
Barbara Pfennighausen, 12364 Pascal, questioned the amount of money
spent to send out recent Community Redevelopment Agency Revised Plan
Public Hearing Notices. Mayor Tillinghast stated that as the Revised
Plan affects the entire City, the State law requires such notices to
be sent Certified with return receipt requests.
Irwin Freid, Yorba Linda, stated he is a City Councilman from the City
of Yorba Linda representing Mr. Bob Keeney as his attorney. Mr.
Freid requested an explanation be given as to what a redevelopment
agency is, the source of its fundings, how the cash flow goes from
the source to the end product, and the effect it has on the citizens
of the community. Requested Council compare the alternatives of
purchasing the Keeney building to that of acquiring land and con-
structing their own facilities.

6/11/81
Mr. M. 0. Wilson, 11960 Vivienda Court, requested an answer to Mr.
Campbell's comment regarding citizens voting on such matters as
this. Mayor Tillinghast stated the City Council is a representative
type of government, and they are trying to be representative by
getting input from the community such as this informal hearing.
Some matters have to be voted upon by the citizens, and the cost of
such an election is about $4,000.
John McDowell, 22690 Cardinal, spoke in favor of using the tax incre-
ments for a City Hall, a Community Center, and other such projects.
Stated without such projects, the money already spent in County
taxes would go to other areas. Feels the City is being run in a
business -like manner.
Dorothy Farley, 12513 Michigan, questioned the need to spend the
tax increment now. Favors the program because people would have
something to say about where that money goes. Feels, however,
street lights and improved curbs and gutters throughout the City would
be more important than a City Hall. Mayor Tillinghast explained the
projects must have specific benefit to the areas from which the tax
increments are derived.
Mr. Irwin Campbell stated based upon what he had heard that evening,
he appreciated the efforts taken and the reasons. Felt if everyone
could hear this explanation, the community might feel differently.
Mayor Tillinghast thanked Mr. Campbell. Said the Council wants to
get all such information to the public.
Marjorie Sittel, 22560 LaPaix, stated she feels there is a need for
a fire station. However, feels it is presently located in a danger-
ous area. City Manager Armstead stated four other sites were investi-
gated. The site we now have leased was recommended by'the California
Department of Forestry as being the logical site for fast reaction for
emergency medical treatment and fires. Councilman Nix stated if the
City builds a fire station, the site has yet to be determined.
Recess was called at 8:58 p.m. and reconvened at 9:12 p.m., with
all members present.
There being no additional comments and questions regarding the
proposed facilities, Mayor Tillinghast closed the meeting to pub-
lic participation.

FIRE CHIEF REPORT
Mayor Tillinghast commended Howard Wright, Battalion Chief, California
Department of Forestry, on behalf of the City Council, extending appre-
ciation for the outstanding service he and the fire fighters have
given the community, most notably during the last week's fire.
Councilmen Petta and Grant stated it was gratifying to see so much
support in that emergency, and felt pride for the fire fighters.
CC-81-212 Motion by Mayor Tillinghast, second by Councilman Grant, ALL AYES,
to direct Staff to prepare appropriate Certificates of Commendation for
the California -Department of Forestry Station No. 23, the fire units
that assisted through mutual aid, and the Riverside Highland Water
Company, who worked in behalf of keeping water available.
HOUSING & COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM
Councilman Nix requested time, prior to taking action, to coordinate
with the community, particularly the Lions Club and other service
organizations; felt all doubt should be removed from those concerned
regarding any potential hazards. Stated the Lions Club has had
no information regarding the last two months issues and documentations.
Councilman Grant stated he felt Council has had input from these
organizations; he is not convinced we would be restricted, -short of
using it for Council and Planning Commission meetings, which he
opposes.- Feels the funds can be put to valuable use, and does not
wish to jeopardize that use by delaying action any further.
Councilman Rigley questioned Staff's additional recommendation to
go out to bid for Architectural service, feels Council should act
on one issue at a time. Stated he supports Councilman Nix's posi-
tion, but does not feel that strongly; if action needs to be taken,
he is prepared to do so.
City Manager Armstead stated the request for proposals is for an
architect to prepare total rehabilitation specifications for the
Community Center to allow the City to expend the funds more wisely.
Community Services Director Anstine stated he would like to move on
this program as soon as possible, and the quickest way is to retain
an architect to prepare the rehabilitation specification plans inas-
much as Council previously approved the funds for this project.
Staff would then separate the items and go to bid on each one. Mr.
Anstine recommended expending the funds as soon as possible because
of new legislation coming into effect concerning block programs.
Councilman Petta stated he appreciates Councilman Nix's position
for gaining more input; recommended calling a Special meeting to
take action following a Lions Club Board meeting.

Mot ion by Councilman Ri.gley, second by Councilman Grant, to delay
action and call a Special meeting for June 18, 1981.
Following City Attorney Hopkins' recommendation to adhourn at the
end of the meeting to that time, the Motion was withdrawn. 0
Bob Yeates, 12888 Fremontia, and Barbara Pfennighausen, 12364
Pascal, both voiced concern for the restrictions which might be
placed on the use of the Community Center by various organizations.
Councilman Petta stated Council's concern for the Lions Club input
is a moral one inasmuch as there. is a lease involving them and the
City; the Lions Club would look out for the interests of the other
organizations.
Mayor Tillinghast stated he personally feels strongly enough to
commit City funds to reimburse the funds from the Block Grant if the
program became too restrictive, because those funds would benefit
the whole community.
City Attorney Hopkins concurred the worse thing that can happen when
you don't live up to the terms of a Grant is the Grantor can require
you to pay back the money. Councilman Nix stated his concern is
for Staff's statements and Mr. Newcome's position going further in
the area of debarment.
Community Services Director Anstine responded that was only in
perspective of utilizing the facilities for Council and Commission
meetings, which would be in direct violation of Federal regulations.
In his experiences along this line, feels certain anyone could use
that facilitity, other than Government entities, as long as the
senior citizens are not displaced.
Following further discussion regarding the expending of funds and
the request for proposals being addressed separately, and that
Randy Anstine and Mr. Newcome be included in a meeting with the
CC-81-213 A Lions Club_, Motion by Mayor Tillinghast, second by Councilman Grant,
to approve expending Housing and Community Development Block Grant
funds for the Senior Citizens/Community Service Center.
Following further discussion, Mayor Tillinghast stated his position
is to apply for the funds; give the Lions Club Board time to review
the information, having Staff and an OCD representative available.
Felt his Motion allowed time; then if we cannot live with the re-
strictions, refuse the funds. The Motion carried 3-2, with Council-
men Nix and Petta voting NOE.
Following Mayor Tillinghast's clarification the Motion does not
affect the funds which were reprogrammed for sidewalks, City Attorney
Hopkins recommended another Motion to specifically direct the amount
of money -intended in the Motion.
CC-81-213B Motion by Mayor Tillinghast, second by Councilman Grant, that the
application be appropriately worded to state $40,000 of the 0
funds be expended on the Senior Citizens/Community Service Center,
with the remaining $20,000 to remain in the sidewalk usage.

6/11/81
Councilman Rigley questioned deleting $20,000 from the original
intent of $60,000 for this program. Mayor Tillinghast stated his
Motion was to reprogram the $40,000; the additional $20,000 could
be added from City funds.
CC-81-213C Motion by Councilman Rigley, second by Councilman Nix, to amend
Motion No. CC-81-213B to include expending $20,000.from City
funds for a total of $60,000 to be applied to rehabilitating the

FMHA COMMUNITY FACILITIES LOAN

to any particular location.
CC-81-214 Motion by Councilman Grant, second by Councilman Petta, to authorize
a pre -application for a FmHA Community Facilities Loan in the amount
of $260,000.

cations, and the location of the site to be submitted, Councilman
Nix recommended Council be aware of, in considering site locations,
the need to re -address the properties now owned by the City and the
property where the Station is now located. That the California
Department of Forestry may not have taken this into consideration at the
time they made recommendations. The Motion carried, ALL AYES.

those totally self-supporting; we would not only reach more people,
but we would be in a better position when negotiating for joint -use
facilities with the School Board. Councilman Petta concurred with
making the programs available to as many people as possible, however,
feels this would place pressure on the City funds available; recommended
making arrangements for the Community Services Director and teachers
to make these programs available at no cost or a reduced cost to those
individuals they know can't afford them.
Community Services Director Anstine stated his $5,000 Budget to
offset costs of the programs was cut. His recourse was to assume
this was the policy Council wanted him to follow. Stated cities
are realizing they cannot afford no -cost programs. Mr. Anstine
added he is trying to produce a balanced recreation program, that
the City is charging for the Day Camp, but three schools are going
to have a no -charge playground.

City is offering a wide variety of programs.

to Council.

ordinance in the area of prohibiting sale of alcoholic beverage
within a certain distance from schools would be pre-empted by the
State.

allowed to sell beer and wine.

Councilman Rigley stated he is against discrimination of free
enterprises. If this business abuses the license, then Council
should take action. Councilman Grant stated he supports free
