A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE FINAL MAP ENTITLED "SOUTH MAPLE AVENUE CONDO- MINIUM SUBDIVISION" AND AUTHORIZING RELATED ACTS (TF-146) APPROVAL OF BILLS 7. Regular Bills of 10/15/80. (TF-181) Councilman Addiego questioned the wordage on the first page of the Resolution, paragraph 3 which says, "...and the Building Division may withhold building permits until the copies of the recorded documents are so filed." He asked the reason for the word "may" being used rather than "will." City Engineer Yee explained that the wording is related to the Building Permit rather than the map itself and stated the Building Permit may be withheld until the final map is recorded and returned to the City. Assistant City Attorney Rogers explained that this wording provides greater flexibility in issuing the Building Permits. Councilwoman Teglia asked why addresses were not assigned to projects such as this before they went to Council for approval and requested that the addresses be put on the Projects in future. Discussion followed on the use of the word "may", possible substitutions, flexibility of words and the Building Permit process with recordation. Motion by Councilman Addiego - To adopt the Resolution. RESOLUTION NO. 122-80 Carried by unanimous roll call vote. APPROVAL OF BILLS Mayor Acosta questioned if funds from Revenue Sharing for the Roof Rat Abatement Program had been expended.

Councilwoman Teglia asked if the funds had been released for the- Guadalupe Health Center and was told by Director of Finance Anderson that they had not been released. Councilman Addiego stated that he had not voted for funds to be distributed to the Neighborhood Services Center and the Sister Cities Program because he felt the two requests would not be a proper use of Revenue Sharing Funds. M/S Damonte/Nicolopulos - To approve the bills. Carried by unanimous voice vote. Councilman Addiego did not parti- cipate or vote in the matter of the claim of Brentwood Market. CITY MANAGER City Manager Birkelo explained that this item had been agreed upon by Unit No. 6 in the negotia- tions and that it would provide a one year final compensation option. He continued, once the Ordinance was adopted it would encompass all members of the Fire Department, however Unit No. 1 was still in the negotiation process. Councilwoman Teglia questioned how this compared in benefits that the Police Department received. City Manager Birkelo explained that the Police Department had been awarded a 2% cash benefit in lieu of the final year option which the Firefighters had selected. Consensus of Council - To defer this item until after the Executive Session. 10/15/80 Page 5 Ac'r ou 155 CITY MANAGER Staff Report 10/15/80 - recommending a Motion authorizing the City to enter into an agreement with the County of San Mateo regarding the planning process for the possible development of the South Slope/San Bruno Mountain. (TF-235) (TF-265) CITY MANAGER City Manager Birkelo explained that for a number of years there had been an agreement between prior City Councils and the County that stated that any planning for a development on the South Slope of San Bruno Mountain would be done jointly between the City and County. The Letter of Understanding will formalize the agreement and would allow a developer to proceed. He further indicated that the proposed Letter of Understanding was workable and that the first step would be to select a Task Force to set a work program and solicit citizen input in the planning process. He recommended amending the last two sentences of paragraph 10, "The Board of Supervisors shall adopt the Specific Plan. No Specific Plan shall be deemed approved unless and until both the County and the City have approved it." He stated that a reasonable question could be raised on whether or not the City should waive its legal rights to be the final approving agency for development within its own jurisdictional boundaries. A discussion followed on whether the County would have to amend its General Plan in order to have a concept plan rather than a specific plan, the City becoming the lead agency with final approval, sphere of influence, etc. San Mateo County Supervisor Bacciocco responded that it would require an amendment of the County's General Plan. He stated that the Council would have to make a decision on whether they wanted development on the slope and if so they should work with the County. He continued, before annexation the City would have the final approval, however the County has to approve the specific plan. He explained in-depth the advantages of the County being the lead agency, the Task 10/15/80 Page 6 AGENDA 156 CITY MANAGER 9. Staff Report 10/15/80 -Continued. (TF-366) ACTION TAKEN CITY MANAGER Force being comprised of a Council- member, Planning Member, Mr. Bacciocco, and a member of the County Planning Commission, the fact that both the County and the City had equal veto power. Vice Mayor Nicolopulos asked for a clarification of a concept plan and a specific plan. Director of Community Development Dell'Angela explained that the County's plan will be analyzed and reevaluated in light of current day conditions and that this would be one of the functions of the Task Force and the Staff to look:at the principles and conditions of that plan to reevaluate and modify accord- ingly. He continued elaborating on the concept plan and explained measures to protect the environ= mentally sensitive portions of the mountain. At a later point the developer would be instructed to prepare a concept plan with guide- lines from the Task Force and there would then be a series of public hearings with guidelines and dis- cussions and gradually these would evolve into a specific plan. An in-depth discussion followed on the joint planning effort, work pro- gram, public hearings with citizen input, a fiscal feasibility study prior to annexation; the City giving up its right and allowing the County to have the veto power by letting the last sentence stand, further legal research on the legal ramifica- tions before acting on the Letter of Understanding. San Mateo County Supervisor Bacciocco stated that the Board is not going to abrogate its juris- diction where the City of South San Francisco has the sole, supreme veto power - then he felt there was no 10/15/80 Page 7 ^GEND^ ^CT ON T^KEN 157 CITY MANAGER 9. Staff Report 10/15/80 - Continued. (TF-391) (TF-412) CITY MANAGER reason for the Board to plan this project with the City. He pleaded that Council try to enter into this Letter of Understanding with a cooperative approach. Councilwoman Teglia stated she would feel more comfortable to have the City Attorney research this matter and protect the City's interests and asked why the County did not proceed with the development and the entire plan without the City's involvement. She stated that after annexation the City through sphere of influence could proceed with plans that would contribute to the community by development of the one segment of the community. San Mateo County Supervisor Bacciocco responded that the Board made a compromise not to put 24,000 people on the saddle, only 3,500, and the conservationists of the County are supporting the development on the north east ridge of the South Slope. He stated that the Board will insist on reserving 20% of the median low cost housing in the development, a lead agency for planning and to share equally with the City whether or not the plan that is developed jointly will be accepted. He spoke of the objection of the Down- town Merchants of 100,000 square feet being set aside for a super- market and stated that the Board would be flexible and encourage the Downtown Merchants. Mayor Acosta expressed concern over a potential impasse with the Board and the City having veto power. He suggested accepting a specific plan concurrently with the City and Board and maybe modify- ing the plan and not abrogate the 10/15/80 Page 8 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN CITY MANAGER 9. Staff Report 10/15/80 - Continued. (TF-428) (TF-490) CITY MANAGER the general plan of the County. He felt this would prevent pro- blems after annexation because there was a contract with the County. Vice Mayor Nicolopulos stated that this item was not allowing any building but was to execute a pro- posed Letter of Understanding with the County and nothing more. City Manager Birkelo stated that the Letter of Understanding would then set in motion a planning pro- cess which could lead to develop- ment. He further stated that with Council direction Staff could nego- tiate with the County on those items that require legal satis- faction. Discussion followed of this item being on the Planning Commission's Agenda at their last meeting, the fact that this item was part of the County General Plan and not the City's General Plan. Councilwoman Teglia stated that the Planning Commission had been con- cerned for a long time with the planning process of the Mountain and felt the Commission shoul!d be involved from the initial~,planning stages. Ms. Mary Cox, 466 Holly Avenue, Chairwoman of the Citizens Action League San Bruno Mountain Committee, stated that the citizenry in trying to gain information on this issue for months felt they were receiving conflicts, lies and broken promises. She stated that the CAL group would be greatly affected by any develop- ment on the Mountain and expressed surprise that Council, Staff and Mr. Bacciocco had been discussing 10/15/80 Page 9 AGENDA ACTION TA~<EN 159 CITY MANAGER 9. Staff Report 10/15/80 - Continued. (TF-519) (TF-534) (TF-569) CITY MANAGER this item after promising the group that this matter would be aired at a Study Session before any action would be taken. She stated that because of the holiday the libraries and City Hall were closed and the citizens were un- able to learn of the agenda items until Tuesday, the day before the Council Meeting. She stated con- cern that this item was also placed on the Planning Commission's Agenda without the public being aware of the subject being up for discussion when the group had been promised that they would be informed of any discussion on this subject. She asked that Council as Elected Offi- cials live up to the promise made to the CAb group by taking this item off the agenda and place it on a Study Session, to be held at night in South San Francisco, and notify the residents in ample time so the citizens can state their concerns and be a party to the planning processes for the Mountain. Mr. John Beckham, 1357 Hillside Blvd., expressed concern over the traffic problems on Hillside Blvd., and felt any development would create further traffic hazards and perhaps fatalities to the children in the area going and coming from the school. Mayor Acosta reiterated that the Letter of Understanding would begin the planning process that would dictate the traffic design and land- scaping. He further stated that this meeting was taking the form of a Study Session and that the formal Study Sessions would not take place until.~a concept is agreed upon. Councilman Addiego recited the various Council communications he had received on this subject and that from the beginning it had 10/15/80 Page 10 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN CITY MANAGER 9. Staff Report 10/15/80 - Continued. (TF-642) CITY MANAGER been stated that Study Sessions would be held on this subject and the item had been placed on the continuing Study Session Agenda and stated that now was a good time to select a date for a Study Session. He further stated that as a Council- man he wanted to know how Council felt on this issue before being bound by an agreement with the County and felt that the public should be brought into the dis- cussions at the early stages. Vice Masor Nicolopulos stated that Council% legislative role was to make policy and then proceed with the public input and was bothered by the mistrust evident in the discussion. Mrs. Martha Jent, ll6 Green Avenue, e~pressed concern that Council as Elected Officials was not being responsive to the residents of Peck's Lot and Hillside Boulevard who must contend with large trucks carrying building supplies and dirt over Hillside Boulevard. She stated that there was a number of children between the ages of two and ten and the traffic flow was creating hazards to their safety and was concerned that the proposed development and shopping center would increase the traffic problems. She stated that she was also concerned about the proposed motel to be built on the corner of Airport Boulevard and Randolph which would attract un- desirables to the neighborhood. Ms. Jane Lee, 1321 Hillside Boulevard, stated that she felt that Council had been elected to represent the people in the policies that they set and the citizens want input before the policies are set. 10/15/80 Page ll AGENDA ACTION TAKEN 161 CITY MANAGER 9. Staff Report 10/15/80 - Continued. (TF-673) RECESS: RECALL TO ORDER: (TF-703) (TF-755) CITY MANAGER Ms. Beverly J. Totten, 125 Edison Avenue, stated that she had addressed Council during the Budget Study Session and asked that the public have a say in the letter being dis- cussed tonight. She continued, saying it made no difference whether Council discussed general plan, concept plan, specific plans - it made no difference because she did not want any type of development on the Hountain. Mr. Larry Casey, 363 Forestview Drive, stated that he felt that the Council should take no action on the proposed letter of agree- ment at this time and give closer scrutiny to the wording in the agreement. Mayor Acosta declared a recess at 9:40 p.m. Mayor Acosta recalled the meeting to order at 9:57 p.m., all Council present. Mr. Tom Jent, ll6 Green Avenue, said he had hiked the mountains in other areas of the Peninsula that now were covered with houses and the open spaces were rapidly diminishing and pleaded that the Mountain be protected in its present state. Councilwoman Teglia stated that based on the testimony presented this evening from the public, the questions raised by the City Attorney and the Planning Commissions request to hold this matter over, suggested setting a public hearing. M/S Teglia/Damonte ~ To put the item over to a Study Session with the public, Planning Commmission and the City Attorney. Carried by unanimous voice vote. 10/15/80 Page 12 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN 16g CITY MANAGER 9. Staff Report 10/15/80 - Continued. EXECUTIVE SESSION: RECALL TO ORDER: ITEMS FROM STAFF 18.

Council adjourned to an Executive Session to discuss litigation at 10:07 p.m. The Meeting was recalled to order at ll:20 p.m., all Council present, no action taken. ITEMS FROM STAFF City Manager Birkelo spoke of a draft letter to the County Manager regarding an agreement for the sharing of tax revenue from the Country Club area if and when it is annexed. He continued, that the City f~nds that the cost of necessary public improvements is so high in comparison to tax revenue that the City does not consider it economically feasible to enter into such an agreement at this time. He stated that the County might want to find funds to share a large part of that capital cost or start ta]~king about other ways in which the County might provide services by contract to the City to serve the area in lieu of annexation. He asked if Council wanted Staff to have a meeting with the residents of Country Club in early December to apprise the residents of cost : estimates on streets, lighting, etc. Mayor Acosta stated there would be a hearing with LAFCO, the Board of Supervisors and concerned individuals on October 24, 1980. 10/15/80 Page 13 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN 162 ITEMS FROM STAFF 18.

He expected that the County would have a hearing per- haps late in November or early in December. .City Manager Birkelo asked if the Council wanted to be represented at these hearings and oppose the annexation. He further stated that if MORGA expires the residents would always have the opportunity of annexation by their own normal annexation procedures requiring consent of a majority of the pro- perty owners. He said if the City protested it would be on an economical standpoint.
