3A. Approve Check Register Dated-5-11-2010
Debra Hurst, 22950 Orangewood Court, indicated that she was going through the Check
Register and has a couple of questions regarding the following vouchers:
65205 - Lease for the GMC Tahoe- What is that for and who drives it?
65218 -City of San Bernardino for February and March Animal Services-What is that for?
65243 - City of Colton Animal Control Services - What months did that cover?
She questioned why we are still paying for insurance for Steve Berry.
Ci , Manager Betsy Adams, indicated that staff has pulled voucher number 65229. They
need to verify that some work was properly completed by the vendor. She responded that
the payment for the GMC Vehicle is the vehicle that is used in Code Enforcement and is used
by City Staff for Code Enforcement purposes. The payments to the City of San Bernardino
was for just animal housing services. The payment that was made to the City of Colton was
for the field services of Animal Control. Now all animal care and control services are being
handled by the City of San Bernardino. The insurance payments on the former Acting City
Manager is part of a settlement agreement.
City Attorney Hner,Steve Berry,as well as any employee that terminates service is entitled
to Federal Law Cobra by paying their own insurance premium.

PUBLIC COMMENT
Charles Hornsby,22656 Brentwood Street,reported that a couple of weeks ago we re-signed
with the Redevelopment Agency. He feels that most people that are against that link, and
he is one of them,but understand why you did it. You are between a rock and a hard place.
As many fish will do,they will grow to the size of their environment and for many years we
were using redevelopment money to grow bigger than we are. We have gotten to the point
where we can't function as a City without the Redevelopment Agency. The big question
now is what is the game plan. He stated that he believes that it expires in 2011 so it will
come to an end and the City will be in a position where you won't be able to pay for the day
to day expenses with redevelopment money and it is going to be hard to do that unless some
plans are made. A lot of the salaries of City Employees are being paid for by Redevelopment
Money. Are we going to be able to afford police, fire, paramedics and street maintenance.
How much of all of that was paid for by redevelopment money. Most people in town don't
know. This is a nice city hall for a town this size,the library that is being talked about,parks,
basic maintenance like street cleaning, street lights. These are all things that people are
wondering if we are going to.be able to afford. It would be nice if there was a true workshop
where people could ask questions. A couple weeks ago Jeffrey McConnell spoke out and
said that we should sign up so Grand Terrace doesn't go bankrupt. He missed the big
picture. The big picture is we have to be more concerned with California going bankrupt
than a little town like Grand Terrace. California is the seventh largest economy in the world
and if California goes it could be hell to pay for the Nation.
Doug Wilson, 12168 Observation,several months ago the Terrace View Elementary School
parking problem was brought to light at a Council Meeting. The Mayor and Council
challenged members of the Colton Joint Unified School District or someone in the audience
to cure the circulation and parking problem that has existed for at least 25 years. He has
provided the Council with photos, taken this afternoon, that show upwards of 100 cars
parked on private property on both sides of Grand Terrace Road and all over the place
creating a safety hazard for pedestrians and vehicles and making it nearly impossible for
emergency vehicles to pass. When he asked for this issue to be agendized,he was informed
that Colton Joint Unified School District has completed a preliminary plan to increase
parking spaces on site by 25 spaces. They are also considering adding 5 spaces along
Brentwood and opening up an on-site pick-up area. No one has seen the plan, we already
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 4
know that what is being considered is not nearly enough. For the time being the City is doing
what it can by having its traffic officer spend more time in the area at appropriate times. For
those of you who may not have children that attend Terrace View,he can provide first hand
knowledge of the condition because his 10 year old granddaughter is a student at Terrace
View. He submits, although the relationship between the Colton Joint Unified School
District and the City of Grand Terrace has historical been one of mutual cooperation,district
facilities exist and function within city limits courtesy of the City of Grand Terrace not the
other way around. Today the City of Grand Terrace has a problem that our public streets
unsafe and a public liability. It should not be necessary for Grand Terrace to hold the Colton
Joint Unified School District's feet to the fire but it is more than 25 years and nothing
concrete has been accomplished. Perhaps it would be appropriate for the Council to forward
a resolution to the District that squarely identifies the problem and shifts the moral as well
as legal liability to cure onto the District where it belongs. Maybe if you threaten their
pocket book they will finally do something. Whatever works you have my support.
Debra Hurst, 22950 Orangewood Court,brought two items to the Council. She stated that
she still sees the buses running in the City and questioned if any kind of resolution has been
made. She stated that several months ago she brought to the Council's attention about not
having a paramedic in Grand Terrace. We have an EMT but we do not have a paramedic.
She asked Mr. Salvate to get her the number to add a paramedic to the station. The current
budget for the fire station is approximately$830,000.00 per year. To add one paramedic on
a 24/7 shift would be $1, 304,839.00 which is about$401,000.00 difference. They would
have to stock the station with the items which would be $26,000.00. She stated that she
believes we are the only City in Riverside and San Bernardino County that does not have a
paramedic in our services. Those minutes that it takes to get a paramedic in town could be
the matter of life or death. She knows that the City is strapped and so are the surrounding
cities and counties but she feels that instead of putting pretty things up we should take care
of our citizen's health and safety and one of the ways to do that is to have a fully staffed fire
station with a paramedic.
Patricia Farley, 12513 Michigan Street,wanted to talk about violations of the Grand Terrace
Municipal Code and California State Law. The following statement of facts have been
pointed out to some of the past and present city staff and officials many times in the past few
years and almost everything have been ignored. Major Ordinance are being violated and
large amounts of revenue has been lost because a lot of things are not being done right or
enforced properly.
Zoning is being changed illegally without ordinance on maps and on property records
without any required noticing or a public hearing.
Hundreds of businesses have been operating in our city for many years and continue to go
unlicensed and also some are in violation of zoning.
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 5
All Developer Impact Fees have not been paid on many projects that have received building
permits and fees were never waived by council.
Many property owners have also not paid their fair share in property taxes for years and it has
only been looked into in the last few months.
The Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) is who we had to first seek approval
from to become an incorporated city,which is supposed to govern itself in a responsible way.
It appears that some of our city staff and officials are unaware that an incorporated city will
remain so only its citizens do not vote to abolish the municipality or consolidate it with some
other city and major things should not be ignored. At the last Council Meeting you voted to
certify the General Plan in spite of the fact that there were significant inaccuracies,in many
places. For instance,the high school wasn't even on it. The high school is a major impact
on this city. For any decisions, for planning, for traffic and to send that around to agencies
and pretend that it's not there is, in her opinion, highly negligent. When you certify
something,she believes that you are saying it is true. You had plenty of evidence that it had
major problems and it is not acceptable, in her view, to certify it. It is not accurate at all.
This City has to stop violating ordinances and mismanaging money. And the very basic
management skills of numbering pages and dating and documenting has not happened for
years in this City.
City Manager Betsy M.Adams,responded that Mr.Wilson is correct in terms with what the
City is doing with regards to the parking and traffic challenges at Terrace View Elementary
School. We do have additional Law Enforcement in the area trying to do what we can. The
parking issue is something that would be the District's to resolve. Schools when they are
allowed to build in any community,they don't go through the City,they go through the State
and so some times there are challenges that are created, which is what we have here.
Whether Council wants staff to research doing a resolution or not we would be glad to do so.
With regard to fire, we are part of a fire district. We do not directly fund fire, although we
do provide the .fire station and so how we would add additional services might be something
that- would be better to have discussions with the County,=versus_ Staff making
recommendations for services that we do not directly provide. She stated that at the prior
meeting Mr.Hornsby mentioned a parcel that is on Barton and Mt.Vernon that is fenced and
has weeds. Staff has had conversation with the property owner, the property owner has
selected a contractor to do the weed abatement and it is scheduled to be completed before the
end of the month.
COUNCIL REPORTS
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, thanked all of the residents,that came out and commented. She
appreciates the updates from Staff regarding the property on the corner of Mt. Vernon and
Barton Road. She is concerned with the long term outlook on the finances of the City. She
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 6
feels that this year is going to be one of the most challenging years in the history of our City
and possibly for all cities. She feels that it is important as we have the time to start looking
at the long range financial planning of the City and find out where the money is going and
how it works. Her goal as a representative of the people has always been to work towards
sustainability. The more we can create our own revenue the better. She feels that it is
important to show the residents where the money is going to give them that confidence level:
We may not be able to move forward and do the nice things in the community but the
essentials that we all rely on to have a quality of life here will always be maintained because
of the revenue. The scary thing is you never know what the State Lawmakers will do. They
can change laws and mess with the revenue streams that go to local government. She stated
that she heard about the parking spaces at Terrace View. She feels that the spaces are not
enough and that there probably needs to be some more options. She stated that she has had
discussions with the fire department regarding adding service to our fire department and the
only way to make this happen is to have the people pay a tax by creating a paramedic tax.
She is unsure that all residents would be willing to tax themselves. She realizes that Ms.
Farley has great frustration with the way things have been handled at the City and that she
is uncomfortable with the advice that they receive. She stated that the Council doesn't want
the information and maps to be inaccurate,given the time and resources that we have that we
do the best that we can. Some of the things that Ms.Farley wants to be absolutely accurate,
to be quite honest, we don't have the resources in the City. She requested that the City
Attorney make a comment with regards to that.
City Attorney John Harper,the purpose of the General Plan is to show what properties exist
in the City and how they are zoned. Obviously property use within those zones changes on
an on-going basis. There is no General Plan in any City that is"Up-to-date"in the sense that
each and every parcel,every time it changes use, is some how reflected in the General Plan.
That is not what the General Plan does. The General Plan provides a general overview of
the types of uses which may be permitted in particular areas of the City then you adopt a
Zoning Plan,which takes the general guidelines from the General Plan,which was amended
at the Council Meeting, and applies them to specific areas within the City. The zones just
need to comply with the overall General Plan requirement.
Mayor Pro Tem Garcia, stated that if any resident in our community has a question about
Zoning all they have to do is come to the Planning Counter and staff will let you know what
a specific area is zoned for and what the permitted uses are. Government is constantly
moving and it is impossible to keep up-to-date maps at all times.
City Attorney Harper, feels that the discussion is really about the environmental impact
report related to the General Plan. The purpose of the environmental impact report is to
show worst case scenarios in each of those General Plan areas.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, again thanked the residents for coming out and sharing their
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 7
comments. As a Council and Staff we try to the best of our abilities to meet the concerns.
It is confirmed that the RTA (Riverside Transit Authority) will continue the route 25 bus
through September. Right now Omnitrans is working with RTA on a transition plan. They
will be voting for it in June. Omnitrans will be coming out to meet with City Staff to go over
the proposal. There is some discussion about having increased service for our Seniors. Right
now anyone who has needs for bus service, RTA will be providing service through
September. The hope is that Omnitrans will then provide service.
Councilmember Bea Cortes,reported that she attended the Market Night on Monday,which
was well attended. She indicated that she has been ill and thanked the residents for their
concern and support. She requested that the meeting be adjourned in memory and honor of
Doug Wilson's father who passed away.
Councilmember Walt Stanckiewitz, reported that this is week seven for no response from
Corporation for Better Housing regarding his letter on the furniture and other issues at the
Senior Center. His contacts with the School District sent him an e-mail giving him a heads
up that on the Agenda for Thursday evening, the School Board will be talking about
investigating the possibility of a parcel tax measure feasibility study, which they want to
spend $40,000.00 today to see if it is feasible to raise our property taxes to raise more
revenue to pay for teachers and salary personnel. He doesn't speak for the rest of the Council
but he can say that he personally would like to see more community involvement as we move
forward with this new amendment to decide what the priorities are of the City and what the
priorities.are of the residents. It is his intention to work in that direction so that it becomes
a community effort so that we all can buy into what we agree upon before we run out and
develop a giant plan and run up debt.
PUBLIC HEARINGS
6A. Resolution-Swertfegr Equipment-Modification or Revocation of Conditional Use
Permit 99-01, 99-01 A2 and 99-01 A3, Located at 12438 Michigan Street
Sandra Molina, Senior Planner,indicated that the Planning Commission originally adopted
a CUP for Swertfeger Equipment in 2001 to allow truck repair and trailer manufacturing and
sales subject to certain conditions. Since 2001 the Commission has approved some
extensions to allow the completion of some site work and the construction of a 12,000 square
foot building. On March 14,2010 the Planning Commission conducted a public hearing to
consider either revocation or modification of the conditional use permit. In conducting that
public hearing the Commission voted to modify the conditions of approval. The Resolution
with the modified conditions were provided to the Council. The Council was scheduled to
hold a public hearing to consider the Planning Commissions recommendations on April 13,
2010, however, that hearing was continued to this evening. Since the March 4 Planning
Commission Meeting the property owner has made further progress and compliance with
r
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 8
the conditions of approval. A Certificate of Occupancy has been issued for the 12,000 square
foot building and the building permit is expected to be finaled soon,pending the completion
of some work. Because of the work that has been done, and as a result of on-going
discussions with the applicants representative,the conditions that are contained in the City
Resolution differ from what was adopted in the Planning Commissions Resolution,
specifically, Condition Number 5 has been modified and Condition Number 6, which the
Commission had approved has been deleted from the resolution for consideration by the
Council this evening. A Staff Report was provided to the Commission on May 6 to apprise
them of these changes. The Planning Commission considered the changes and voted to
forward some recommendation to the City Council. The Commission is in agreement with
Condition Number 5 but they did not agree with the deletion of Condition Number 6 and
voted to direct staff to forward the recommendation to keep that condition. Condition
Number 6 required the applicant to submit building plans to the fire department and a site
plan to the fire department for approval. They have done that. The Staff was recommending
removal of that condition because it had been substantially complied with, however, the
Commission indicated that in the past with conditions, even though they have been
completed,they still remain on file and as part of the application and the conditions. Also,
Mr.Frank Tetley,Legal Counsel for the applicant had provided an e-mail to the Commission
and a copy was provided to the Council. Mr. Tetley raised four points in his e-mail. The
Commission considered those items and recommended a modification to Condition Number
4 to revise the second sentence to add the words"involving equipment"so that is would read
"No work involving equipment shall be done on the property on Sundays." Staff requests
that the City Council conduct a public hearing and in adopting the Resolution that is before
them that they consider the Planning Commissions recommendations with respect to
Condition Number 4 and Condition Number 6.
Mayor Ferre opened the Public Hearing.
Steve Kendall, 12373 Michigan Street,stated that he didn't object to this company years ago
when they first sent out letters indicating what they were proposing to do. They didn't have
the information on there about all of the noise and machinery that they currently have on site.
He feels that this company has been given an inch and they are taking a mile. If they get
another inch they will take two more miles. Those trucks go in and out of there. He lives
across the street from the water company and there is a lot of truck noise from them. He
knows that they say they only operate during certain hours,however,they operate during non
authorized hours. He feels that this business does not belong in Grand Terrace.
Laura Austin, 12356 Michigan Street,referred to Mr.Tetley's comments stating that she has
had several meetings with City Staff regarding Swertfeger Equipment and there have been
dozens of complaints over the years. She stated that the 46 signatures that were received
were of individuals that do riot live on Michigan. She feels that there should be big
regulations for Mr. Swertfeger's business since it was placed in a residential area. No matter
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 9
what conditions or regulations that are set forth, he will bend them. You are suppose to go
home to your home for peace and quiet and to relax, however,they can't do it. They can't
spend an afternoon out there because of the noise and the fumes. Those people who don't
live in the vicinity have no idea what those who do experience. If he doesn't want
complaints and he wants to change his hours then he needs to move to a commercial area.
She said she doesn't want red curbing. She would like to have signs posted that says no
trucks and no parking,etc. Please listen to the residents for a change and help the residents.
He would like the hours to be changed to 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday
only.
Patricia Farley, 12513 Michigan Street, a Public Hearing on the Conditional Use Permit
(CUP)for Swertfegers Equipment(L&G Swertfeger LLC)regarding this project Approval
was warranted because of numerous violations,expirations,and outright non-compliance of
conditions of approval. It was requested many times for over the last five years by nearby
residents and they were ignored. The Planning Commission violated the rights of many
citizens by only considering modification of this CUP .when in fact they should have
considered revoking it. The original approval of this CUP was done illegally. According to
State Law,Mr.Swertfeger was in violation of codes and ordinances in 1999 before he started
this business. This business started in1984. Neither businesses were suppose to be in the
areas where they are. Stacey West, his daughter,has summed it up a couple of times when
she has made statements. They had opportunities for business and they needed to meet
deadlines. For years,the history of this company is extension,extension,excuses,excuses,
ignoring the rights of everyone around them and the City has ignored their rights,blatantly.
Land and the new industrial building at 12438 Michigan Street are being used in violation
of many sections of the Grand Terrace Municipal Code and it can not exist on any land use
map as industrial if it was not done legally according to State Law and it was not. This is
what you have allowed and certified., There are two reasons under the law to revoke a
Conditional Use Permit and only one can cause it to be revoked. First any violation of a
conditional use permit's required condition of approval and second any Federal,state or local
law or ordinance is violated in connection with a conditionally permitted use both of which
have occurred. She would like to point out that the law states specifically that no buildings
or structures shall be erected,reconstructed or structurally altered in any manner nor shall any
building or land use for any purpose other than as permitted in conformance with this title
and all other ordinances, laws, maps referred to.
Charles Hornsby,22656 Brentwood Street, over the years you can't help but get the feeling
and come to know that the Swertfeger's have gotten away with things that they shouldn't
have. They have been doing a lot of things that are against the municipal code. The simple
fact of the matter is even if there is something wrong and it is repeated and repeated over the
course of a long period of time people get use to it. It just becomes status quo. It is
important when the Council makes their decision that they take that into account. If
somebody has been doing something wrong for ten years,it is just as wrong the first day they
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 10
did it,and that is what he feels the case is here. The Council needs to take an objective look
at this situation and judge it as if it has just come up. You can't let a long track record
influence you. People have been complaining about this for years and at the very least the,
City should have taken a stance on it one way or another. You have ignored it for years so
the time has come to judge it on the merits of the case. If they are in violation of city codes
then nail them for it and if not then come out and say so and have the code book in front of
you.
Frank Tetley, indicated that he has provided the Council with six exhibits. The first is a
petition with 48 signatures. The second is a list of what they believe to be the top employers
in the City, indicating that 19 families are employed by Swertfeger. Number 3 is a signed
verification and stated that these law suits have cost the City over$150,000.00. Number 4
is a color plat map of the area and went over it. Number 5 is an aerial photograph of the area
and this is where reality steps in. Number 6 is common decibel readings for talking,music,
etc. One of his main jobs in representing them is to ensure that they have been given their
rights of due process and exercising your power and balancing the rights of the public for
safety etc against the rights of the individual land owner. These are important matters. He
believes that his client should be treated the same as anybody else,no better,no worse. The
restrictions on work on Sundays should be uniform. He questioned if there are other
conditional use permits in that area that have those same restrictions, they think not. The
definition of work needs to be addressed. Is it noise or favoritism of one religion over
another. In these economic times 19 families who would benefit why shouldn't his client be
able to offer a trailer that is already there the right to stay there,you call that storage. They
do not operate at 3:00 a.m., they do not have back up alarms. Back-up alarms are on the
trucks owned by the water company. They are talking about possibly working on Sunday 3
or 4 times a year. When presented to the Planning Commission the quote was "Any work
done on Sunday would be within the enclosed building from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m."
Mayor Ferre closed the Public Hearing and returned discussion to the Council.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia,as the residents were speaking a good neighbor policy came to mind.
One of the things that we try to &every time there is a disagreement among individuals is
to try and figure out a way to work together. As long as she has been on Council Swertfeger
issues have been heard. There have been complaints made. This is an item that is going to
have a lot of discussion. She questioned why this type of business was approved for a
residential area in the first place.
City Attorney Harper,responded that his recollection is that there was question at the time
about whether or not any permit was required at all. Whether or not it was a pre-existing
non-conforming use whether the County had issued a CUP. The Council and Swertfeger felt
j that it was appropriate to address some of the issues and to apply for a Conditional Use
Permit. The first Condition Use Permit was done in 1999. There were conditions and phases
4
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 11
that were never complied with. It went back to the Planning Commission quite a number of
times. The requirements for,the Conditional Use Permit were changed or continued.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia,stated that conditional use permit is saying that yes you can be there
with these following conditions. It has been fairly heavily conditioned. Throughout the
years they sometimes were in violation.
City Attorney Harper,when they didn't comply with the conditional use permit requirements
complaints were received, staff took a position that they weren't in compliance, staff went
to the Planning Commission,there were hearings held and the Planning Commission,after
weighing all of the facts continued or modified the conditions on a number of occasions,
essentially giving them more time to complete what they were required or changing some of
J their requirements. He stated that there was litigation filed against the City on whether or
not the City had the ability to allow the conditional use permit to continue and the court said
yes we do.
Councilmember Bea Cortes, questioned what the litigation was for.
City AttorneyHWer,responded that it was to get the City to set aside its decision to approve
the extension of the conditional use permit and the City prevailed. He stated that the
litigation and the conclusion of that litigation doesn't have anything to do with what is being
presented tonight or with the Planning Commission. The City has the ability to require that
it be complied with. The City in this case also has the ability to consider modifications. The
past has nothing to do with what is before the Council today.
Councilmember Cortes,questioned if the Planning Commission found any violations of the
Municipal Code.
Senior Planner Molina,responded that she has not attended all of the hearings,however,the
Commission did,find that there was reason to hold a public hearing on this item to determine
whether the conditional use permit should be revoked or the conditions modified. They
found that they weren't incompliance with the conditions that were set on the project.
Ultimately during that public hearing process they decided that revocation wasn't appropriate
rather that the conditions should be modified, which is what they adopted in the resolution
and recommend to the Council.
Councilmember Cortes,she feels that the Council doesn't have the right to tell them that they
can't work on Sundays.
City Attorney Harper, stated that he believes the condition is to address working with
equipment that is noise oriented on Sunday as opposed to office work.
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 12
Councilmember Stanckiewitz, questioned if equipment needs to be defined.
Senior Planner Molina,responded that the way the condition reads is"noise from operations
including truck idling, ingress and egress shall not be heard from adjacent properties before
7:00 a.m. or after 7:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday" it also states "no work involving
equipment shall be done on the property on Sundays." She feels that it is reasonable to
I
conclude that the intent is to regulate and limit the noise from truck idling and truck
movement equipment.
Councilmember Stanckiewitz, questioned if equipment constituted a hammer banging on a
I
trailer.
Senior Planner Molina, responded in the affirmative because it is noise from operations.
Councilmember Stanckiewitz, questioned if that should be spelled out.
Senior Planner Molina, stated that they may.
Building and SafetyTublic Works Director Richard Shields, stated that the Swertfeger's
constructed a 12,000 square foot building out of masonry fully grouted building that you can
walk inside and take large equipment that you work on inside there and not even hear that
from the outside and feels that the Council should consider that as another option.
i
Senior Planner Molina,stated that the Planning Commission had this same discussion. They
felt that because of where the business is located in relation to surrounding neighbors and
residents that even though work can be done inside their concern is that they don't want to
have staff monitoring Sunday work activities.
City Attorney Harper, suggested the wording be the only work allowed on a Sunday will be
office related and contained within the office complex and not generate noise to.the outside.
Councilmember Cortes, she feels that government shouldn't be controlling every business
and we don't want to lose businesses. We don't want our 19 residents not to have
employment. Maybe we can make an allowance that if it is an emergency on a Sunday that
they work only inside and no noise. She questioned if the building was air conditioned.
Mr.Tetley,responded that based upon the testing that was done today it is very quiet and the
noise will not carry to the neighbors.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, stated that the Council did a field trip out to the property for a visit.
She suggested that the Council take a field trip once again. Council wants to help the
businesses to be successful and they want to mitigate to the best of their ability the impact's
i
i
Council Minutes
05/11/2010
Page 13
to the residents around them.
Councilmember Stanckiewitz,stated that he is not ready to make a decision at this point. He
feels that maybe a professional noise study should be done so the Council can see the results
of that.
Senior Planner Molina,responded that staff is unaware whether or not a professional noise
study has been. One may have been done but it has not been shared with staff.
Councilmember Stanckiewitz,he agrees that Council should take a walk on the property so
that they can better understand it and he would like the Planning Commission to do a little
bit more work on the wording on some of the conditions that are being laid out, specifically
Condition Number 4 and work on Sundays. He would like to see that spelled out clearer.
He wants to make sure that we are doing this right and that we are taking into consideration
the concerns of the residents who live around there and that we are not rolling over for the
sake of Swertfeger. He suggested that this item be continued.
City Attorney Harper, stated that Mr. Tetley had requested the start time of 6:00 a.m. as
opposed to 7:00 a.m.
Mr.Tetley,stated that people need to come onto the property to get things started for the day,
however,no heavy equipment or trucks will be moved onto the'facility until after 7:00 a.m.
Senior Planner Molina, indicated that the Planning Commission discussed the start time as
well. The Commission was concerned that if they changed the start time to 6:00 a.m. that
employees will come to the job site a little earlier and instead will be showing up at 5:30 or
5:45 a.m. and given the residential area, they did not recommend any change to that
condition.
City Attorney H@Mer,stated that red striping curbs was raised. The applicant had indicated
that the trucks parking on the street weren't theirs and that they would be happy to have the
curbs red striped. He stated that this is not impossible,however,the process is different than
a CUP. The vehicle code requires a public hearing be held.
Mayor Pro Tem Garcia, questioned if we are allowed to request a site visit.
City Attorney Harper, responded in the affirmative. He stated that'if all of the Council
Members do a site visit at the same time they would have to hold a special meeting.
Mayor Pro Tem Garcia, she-would like to see this item continued and that a site visit be
allowed for the Council, that this goes back to the Planning Commission for review.

Senior Planner Molina, responded in the affirmative. She indicated that the items that are
outstanding were the fire signage and clearance of the fire lanes and installation of some slag.
Building and Safes/Public works Director Shields,confirmed that there is a sign that needs
to be installed and some slag installed at the back of the lot that they are working on. They
are mobilizing equipment into the building, which is going to take a week or so to
I
accomplish.
City Attorney Harper, stated that the Council wants to send this item back to the Planning
Commission and at some time have a joint meeting with the Planning Commission on site.

TITLE: Treasurer's Report for Quarter Ending March 31, 2010
tub
PRESENTED BY: Bernie Simon, Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION: Approve
BACKGROUND:
Treasurer's Report of Cash and Investments should be presented to the governing body quarterly. This
reports all cash held and invested by the city. All fiscal agent funds are related to bond issues for which
the city has limited authority to access and invest funds as controlled by the bond indenture.
DISCUSSION:
�J
HIGHLIGHTS
Quarter-to-Date
Total cash and investments increased $150,629 or.81% over the previous quarter end with a total of
$18,809,119. The majority of the cash increase is attributable to the normal influx of revenue receipts in
the second quarter of the fiscal year. The average yield continues to decline as investment income yields
continue to decline. LAIF net yield is now approximately .54% in March 2010 compared to 1.51% in
June 2009.
Overall cash and investments, including cash with fiscal agent, increased .75%for the_quarter for a total
of $20,109,119. The 1997 COP was refinanced through a private placement with Zion's Bank on
September 1, 2009, in which a reserve deposit requirement was no longer required.
