City Manager Guluzzy presented the Agenda for this meeting which contained
items dealing with the recently annexed Eastview area.
COUNTY'S POLICY ON SIDEWALK Council briefly discussed the County's current
REPAIRS (1405) policy on sidewalk repairs which permits repair
of sidewalks, curbs and gutters and removal of
trees; all costs are paid for by the County; City policy requires that the
resident pay seventy -five percent of the cost of such repairs.
Council consensus was to send a letter to Supervisor Dana suggesting that the
County adopt a policy similar to the City's.
PROPOSED EASTVIEW REVENUE/ City Manager Guluzzy presented the staff memo -
EXPENDITURE OPERATING randum of January 26, 1983 which contained
BUDGET (105) proposed revenue /expenditure projections and
budget for the Eastview area for the period
of January 5 through June 30, 1983.
After Council review of the revenue and expenditure estimates the consensus
was to revise these figures as follows: remove Prop. "A" funds ($42,000) f rom
the revenue reflected as "Coming from Other Agencies "; prepare a report on how
annexation will impact Environmental Services Department priorities; prepare a
report on how the annexation will impact the work schedule in the Public Works
Department; eliminate the $5,000 additional legal fees from the City Attorney's
budget; find out the exact equation from JPIA on the increase in liability
insurance, and present a revised budget with these changes for Council adoption.
NEWSLETTER (1107) After a brief discussion of the special NEWSLETTER
edition, it was agreed that the next issue
should have an article on the increase in sales tax revenue to the City with
the Eastview annexation.
ZIP CODE (601) It was agreed that the Mayor should send a
letter to the Postmaster requesting that this
area have the same zip code as the rest of the City. Also, the letter should
request that this change be made as quickly as possible with no delays in mail
delivery.
INTERIM ZONING Director Hightower briefed the Council on
(105 X 1801) the possible make -up of a proposed "goals"
committee for the area. This committee would
formulate limited goals for the area which would
then be amended to the General Plan. The suggestion was made that perhaps
there should be one representative from each of the existing committees with
representatives from the Eastview area; committee representatives will play a
secondary role on this goals committee. The consensus was that staff would
present different scenarios on the make -up for this goals committee.
BUSINESS LICENSE STATUS Director Laisure told the Council that the
REPORT (202) Sheriff's Department was surveying the businesses
in the area to determine the number, the type of
business, and the principal contact. This survey would be completed within
the next two weeks.
POSTING OF LEGAL NOTICES The City Clerk presented the February 1, 1983
(301 X 307) staff memorandum recommending that consideration
be given to establishing a posting place in this
area. Councilman Dyda moved, seconded by Councilwoman Shaw and carried to
direct staff to prepare a resolution authorizing the addition of Dodson Junior
High School as an official posting place for City notices.
PUBLIC WORKS (1204) Status of Agreement with CALTRANS - Director
Abel reported that he is awaiting an agreement
from CALTRANS for the maintenance of Western Avenue. The City will have to
contribute to the maintenance of the lights.
The consensus was that staff should look at the cost for CALTRANS maintaining
this area versus City costs.
BOUNDARY SIGNS - These signs will take about six weeks to order and will be
installed at certain locations on Western Avenue.
TOWN HALL MEETING Director Bandy briefed the Council on the
arrangements made for the Town Hall Meeting to
be held on February 9 at Dodson Junior High School.
POLICE SERVICES (1206) City Manager reported that Captain Emerson will
prepare a proposal about the level of services
for the area including traffic enforcement.
STATUS OF COUNTY CAPITAL Referring to the January 17, 1983 letter from
PROJECTS the County Road Department listing the status of
Chapter 22 projects, Director Abel said a
field survey had been conducted; he felt that the City could do these projects
for less than was quoted by the County.
The consensus was that staff should get examples of County's inaccuracies in
sidewalk repairs and list them in a letter to Supervisor Dana. Additionally,
the staff should make an inventory of what the necessary sidewalk repairs
really are.
On a sidewalk repair problem at 1914 Caddington Drive, which has existed since
October, 1982 and should have been attended to by the County, staff was
instructed to write a letter to Don Knabe stating that the City feels this is
a County problem.
STATUS OF CABLE TV Director Bandy reported that he will be talking
FRANCHISE (605) with Colony TV sometime in March and that Colony
may make a proposal for providing cable in
the remainder of the City and Eastview.
