Director of Community Development Dell'Angela commented that the Planning Commission had voted on June 10, 1982, after considering the applicant's re- quest to delete the stairway and re- commended that the required pedestrian stairway be eliminated and that the City's twenty foot wide easement in the area be abandoned° Thereafter, the matter was considered by City Council on July 7,1982 and July 21, 1982, and continued to August 4, 1982, for additional public input. He said that the City Clerk had mailed notices of the August 4, 1982 City Council meeting and a map showing the proposed stairway to 157 adjoining property owners. He said that Staff had been notified by four persons who objected to the elimination, of the stairway and abandonment of the City easement. In addition, Director of Community Development Dell'Angela stated that there were copies of various documents related to this case attached to the Staff Report for Council's perusal. Mayor Teglia said that a recent communication had been received from the Westborough Homeowners Association regarding the proposed request. Mayor Teglia then read the letter into the record. A copy of the letter is attached on the following page. Mr. Dino Sideris, 105 Valleyview, spoke in favor of installation of the stairway and expressed concern over the potential hazard for children going to school and cutting through the hill which is quite dangerous° Mayor Teglia said that comments had been received from Mr. Arthur Wolf, who was not able to remain for the 8/4/82 Page 9 July 22, 1982 Westborough Ho,neon:: ....

San Francisco, dated July 13, 1982, indicating tBat the Board of Directors of the West- borough Homeowners Improvement expressed no opposition to the elimination of stairway between phases three and four of the St. Francis Terrace Project'. Due to limited time, before the Council meeting of July 21, 1982 our initial 'action was taken after polling, via telephone, the available Directors. In view of the fact that this issue was continued until your Council meeting of August 4, 1982, we were able to realize a proper dis- cussion before the full Board of Directors. We have received input from residents of our community, together with neighboring Home- owner Associations, who previously were unaware of this pedestrian access from Appian Way to Gellert Blvd. or any knowledge of its contemplated elimination request by Broadmoor Homes. We anticipate representatives of our organization, being present at the Council meeting of August 4, 1982 to speak on this agenda item. ~'--'~- ~ - ~' Robert C.

Mr. Gunther Boxias, representing Broadmoor Homes, stated that since the meeting of July 21, 1982, a letter had been sent to the Westborough Homeowners Association outlining the reasons for stairway elimination. Mr. Boxias read the letter dated July 23, 1982 to the Westborough Homeowners Association into the record at the request of Mayor Teglia. A copy of the letter is attached on the following page. Mr. Robert Stevens, President of the Westborough Homeowners ImproVement Association, 2435 Tipperary, said that since the last meeting of July 21, 1982, there had been a board meeting of the Association and input had been received from the residents concerning the proposed stairway and indicated that it was the concurrence of most residents that the stairway be installed. He stated that basedupon the legal~op~ion of the Association's Attorney, the liability for the stairway would rest with the City, since the walkway would be a public thoroughfare. He commented that the Association would like to emphasize the point that they wanted the stairs installed. r,layor ~Tegl ia '~asked'.C.i~y~-At~orney Rogers to address the question of liability for the stairway. 8/4/82 Page 10 HOMES IJroad, noor Homes 6250 Village Parkway Dubhn.

Stevens, President WESTBOROUGH HOMEOWNERS IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION 2501Albright Way South San Francisco, CA 94080 Re: St. Francis Terrace Lots 3/4 Stairway Issue Dear Mr. Stevens: Broadmoor Homes has proposed to the City that the planned public stairway between Lots 3 and 4 be eliminated. By reason of your homeowner's association letter, to the City dated July 13, 1982, and your attendance at the City Council meeting of July 21, 1982, we are aware that the association board expressed no opposition to the elimination of the public stairway. The City Council has scheduled a "hearing" on the issue on August 4th. If you haven't done so already, you may wish to ask the City for additional copies of the'written material available including the City staff reports dated July 21 and July 7, 1982 (with attached department reports). Since you may be getting some neighborhood inquiries, we hope you would make Broadmoor's position, including the following points, available to your neighbors: 1) The vacant lots are not an asset to the neighborhood. If they aren't. already, with the opening of the City park, they will become an attractive nuisance. 2) The public stairway would be steep and by reason of the steepness would be unusually dangerous. The stairway would drop 65' over a distance of 186 feet (35% slope). A City report notes that each flight of stairs would have a slope in excess of 50%. As a comparison, the steepest part of our driveway planned for Lot 3 has a 15% slope which is the maximum allowed. The existing public sidewalk slopes 8% and 4%. A Genstar Housing Company Page I of 2 8/4/82 Page lOa 3) The liability of this public stairway would rest primarily with the City, and possibly with Broadmoor Homes, the St. Francis Community Association and the Westborough Homeowners Association. Who would use the public stairway? Children? -- since it would be a great place to play--and get injured? Adults? -- going down dirty or wet stairs would be dangerous; going up 65 feet over 10 flights of zigzag stairs would be a challenge to the local decathlon champ. Vandals and such? -- they would have a direct access from the park (at an unlighted entrance) to both homeowner's neighborhoods. If you have questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to call me. ~Sincerely, BROADMOOR HOMES NORTHERN el 1 hoefe~ sident ~ Manager' JWZ/cn cc: Barba~a_Battaya, City Clerk/CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO Louis Dell'Angela, Director of Community Development/CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO Jeffrey N.

Hearing - Broadmoor Homes - Cont'd. ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT City Attorney Rogers replied "There may be some secondary liability on the part of Broadmoor Homes or the Association, I think that you have to keep in mind that this will be an easement that will be accepted by the City as a public pedestrian right- of-way and will be similar to a sidewalk for that purpose." Mr. Bob Albright, Director of Westborough Homeowners Association, 2501Albright Way, commented that there had been another Association who was planning to attend the meeting where this matter was to be discussed, but had not been advised of the matter being placed on the August 4, 1982, agenda. He further questioned the question of liability resting with the Westborough Homeowners Association inasmuch as the project does not fall within the realm of their jurisdiction. He commented that he had received numerous calls from members of the Association who had not been informed of the project or the intended elimination until advised by the City° He indicated that many of the people who he had spoken with were opposed to the elimination of the stairway° He in- dicated that he was in opposition to the elimination of'the stairway and spoke of past impressions made by the Association concerning the development and commented in detail of the history of the Westborough area. Mr. Willand Ikezawa, Member of the Board of Directors of the Westborough Homeowners Improvement Association, 2272 Derry Way, stated that he had taken a survey of some of the residents on Derry Way, Valleyview Drive, Appian Way and Kenry Way. He commented that residents on Valleyview Drive and Appian Way were concerned that they had not been notified of the meeting. He said that he would like to go on record as being in favor of the installation of the stairway and presented City Clerk Battaya with a list of persons who were in favor of the stairway. 8/4/82 Page 11 AGENDA COMMUNITY DEVELO~ENT 16o Hearing - Broadmoor Homes - Cont'd. ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT An in-depth discussion followed con- cerning the areas of the Westborough district affected by the stairway; number of persons who had been notified by the City of the consideration of the elimination of the stairway; input re- ceived by residents concerning the stairway° Councilman Nicolopulos expressed con- cern that only a limited number of the residents from the area ex- pressed their views on the proposed project. Further discussion followed regarding the safety factor related to children using the proposed stairway~versus other crossing areas within the neighborhood. Councilman Damonte stated that he had always opposed shortcuts and pass-throughs in South San Francisco because they had never really been successful° He spoke of various pathways located throughout the City indicated that there were continual problems in those areas. He expressed concern over the possible dangers to the children using the stairway and commented on ne potential liability which would be assumed by the City° Councilman Acosta inquired if the Association could indemnify the City with respect ~ the easement if it was required; if the City left the sidewalk there; rather than it being a liability against the City° City Attorney Rogers replied "I'm not sure how enforceable that would be. I am certain that agree- ments wherein you tell me you won't sue if your injured because of using the property, are not looked upon with favor° On the other hand the indemnifi- 8/4/82 Page 12 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 16.

Discussion ensued regarding the liability in this matter in com- parison with the Stonegate Development; and the fact that only the tentative map had been approved for the subdivision which contained the stairway; after which Director of Public Services Yee gave an in-depth description of the physical structure of the proposed stairway. Mro Leonard Valdivia, 220 Bonita Avenue, asked how many persons had fallen down the stairs of the Grand Avenue Library and how many times the City had been sued due to the steepness of the stairs. City Attorney Rogers said that he had no figure° MSo Alice Partenan, Vice.President of the Westborough Way Homeowners Association, 113 Appain Way, stated that she was representing 288 homes in the W. Wo Dean Subdivision. She explained that a Board meeting had been held on August 3, 1982, and of the unanimous decision of the Board to oppose~the abandonment Qf the stairway. She said that the Board also felt that the stairway would provide an easier way for the children going to the Foxridge School and hoped that the proposed stairway would be safer than the present crossing at Downey Ct. and Gellert Blvd. Ms. Partenan advised Council that the residents in the W.

Hearing - Appeal by Louis Jo Poletti of the Planning Commission's decision to deny Negative Declaration NOo 359 relating to grading and filing of property located northerly of the terminus of Blondin Way and Westerly of Alida Way. Staff Report 8/4/82 recommending: l) Open the hearing and hear testi- mony; 2) Close the hearing; 3a) Motion to deny the appeal and up- hold the Planning Commission's decision denying Negative Decla- ration #359 based on insUfficient findings; or 3b) Motion to uphold the appeal and approve Negative Declaration #359 based on mitigation measures contained in the Staff Report° Director of Communi'ty Development Dell~Angela stated that the Planning Commission's recommendatio~ that the appeal be denied based upon insufficient information presented by the applicant that the filling and grading of the property would not aggravate the drainage problem in the are~ was contrary to Staff's recom- mendation. He proceeded to present a brief history of the project and commented on City Engineer Yee's conclusion that the installation of the 66" inch pipe and filling and grading of the site would not sig- nificantly affect drainage conditions in the general area in either a positive or negative manner. He indicated that it had been acknowledged that there was an upstream and downstream capacity pro- blem in the area storm drainage sys- tem and that the Planning Commission at their June 10, 1982, meeting had recommended that, "aside from any decision made on this case, the City Council should appropriate ~unds.or at least investigate the possibility of having some of the upstream and downstream problems corrected by funding through the capital improve- ments program." Mayor Teglia invited those persons wishing to speak for the appeal to step to the dais. Mro Paul Walti, 211 Hudson Bay, Foster City, stated that he was speaking on behalf of the applicant, Mr. Louis Poletti, and spoke in depth of the decision of the City Council in granting permission for the storm drain pipe. He commented on the City Engineer's study~of..tbe affect of the installation of 232 feet of pipe.'~ He said that City Engineer 8/4/82 Page 15 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 19. Hearing - Appeal by Louis J. Poletti - Continued. COMMUNITYDEVELOPMENT Yee had found that the drainage pipe had more than adequate drainage capacity. He stated that in addition to City Engineer Yee's report, a report had been submitted by Mr. Louis Arata who had been retained by Mr. Poletti to study the area, and said that the report had stated that "there indeed will not be a flooding condition as the result of this in- stallation.'' He spoke of the comments which had been made when the installa- tion of the pipe had been approved by Council on April 21, 1982, and said thatat that time concern had been expressed regarding the boundaries of the drainage system and said that in the City Engineer's Report, he had found that there were inadequate portions of the system both upstream and downstream. Mro Walti said that in reviewing the Planning Commission's comments regarding approval of the Negative Declaration, that their concerns about the flooding problem related to the area immediately below Mro Poletti's property along Alida Way near St. Veronica's School. He said that there was a 48" pipe which runs under St. Veronica's School and that City Engineer Yee's report indicated that that pipe was inadequate to handle the water° He stated that he believed the Planning Commission's vote to deny the Negative Declaration had been against the Staff's recom- mendation due to concern about the inadequacies of the system down- stream. Mr. Walti requested that Council "uphold the appeal by approving the Negative Declaration No. 359 and we are asking that you do that based upon your previous decision on the very same issues that were discussed before the Planning Commission. It was my impression in participating with that discussion be- fore the Planning Commission, that they were concerned about the very same things that you were concerned about 8/4/82 Page 16 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 19o Hearing - Appeal by Louis Jo Poletti - Continued. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT when you last discussed the vehicle. The members of the community that are here tonight are the members that were before the Planning Commission and a.~e expressing the same concerns about the inadequate system down- stream." He said that a letter from Mr. Arata had been submitted and re- iquested that the letter be considered when making a determination. He then commented on a letter which had been sent to Council by Mr. Raymond John, Principal of Sto Veronica's School, about the inadequacies of the 48" pipe system and indicating his concern over the project which had been proposed by Mr. Poletti increasing the danger of flooding along Alida Way. He said that Mr. John had recommended in his letter that a further study be made. Mr. Walti said that a further study would not result in new information to be presented to Council, but only add increased costs to both the City and Mr. Poletti. He stated "we are asking you to consider the fact that there is no new information before you on this issue° We think that a fair resolution of the problem is to affirm your previous decision on this issue and to direct the City's attention to the real concerns of the community tonight and that is the concern of improving that 48" pipe immediately below - - in requesting that you affirm our appeal, I want to indicate to both the members of the community that are here tonight and to the Council, that Mr. Poletti will work with both the School District, the City Engineer and members of the community who have concerns about this grading project to make sure that the grading that is put in adequately covers and protects all adjacent land owners." City Attorney Rogers spoke regarding the scope of the process to be considered and stated he felt 8/4/82 Page 17 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 19. Hearing - Appeal by Louis J. Poletti - Continued. it would be inappropriate for Council to review their prior decision on this matter. He indicated that at the proper time he would like to address the issues of'hegative declarations versus EIRs versus what the law is." Mayor Teglia invited those wishing to speak against the appeal to step to the dais. Mr. Michael Fabrey,]268 Avalon Drive commented on statements made by Councilmember Nicolopulos, Mr. Louis Arata and City Engineer Yee at the City Council meeting of April 21, 1982, concerning the installation of the 48" pipe. He said that the Planning Commission's decision should be used as a guide for Council when considering their action. He stated "I would like to go on record asking the City Council for an environmental impact report on this Avalon Creek area. This is the correct action to take because of controversy involving the sensitive area." Mr. Joseph Stamatis, 269 Avalon Drive, presented pictures of the downstream flood conditions in the subject area for Council's perusal. He read a statement from the California Flood Management Bulletin, dated September 1980, "Flood Damage is essentially the result of human carelessness or ignorance. Flood- ing results from encroachment of human activities onto a flood plane° An essentially natural flood plane if it results in stream channels being kept undeveloped and streams meandering freely create savings for the community. The enormous cost of structure flood control maintenance can be avoided. Structured flood control failure is absent and the high cost of flood fighting is avoided. Disaster relief becomes unnecessary and property values are enhanced°" He ~e~terated concerns 8/5/82 Page 18 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 19o Hearing - Appeal by Louis Jo Poletti - Conti nued o COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT of the potential impact of the proposed pipe on flooding conditions and the current drainage system in the area citing testimony given by members of the community at prior City Council and Planning Commission meetings° He read further statements from the California Flood Management Bulletin, dated September 1980, "Non- structured flood management includes measures to minimize damage to facilities located in flood hazard areas° The goal is to prevent flood damage by eliminating encroachment of damagable uses and developments into the path of flood waters. A stream channel area can be kept free of damagable and obstructive development by regulations and ordinances. Develop- ment in the area must consider potential inundation damage. Each new structure constructed at an inadequate elevation or in the wrong location presents a future problem for local government to solve through use of its most scarce commodity money. Money to undue the mistake°" Mro Stamatis urged that the developer leave the property as is until the City has completed updating the drainage system to protect the residents and property in the area° He expressed cOncern with the installation of a 30" pipe and its effect on other areas. Mayor Teglia then read the letter dated July 19, 1982, from Raymond John, Principal of St° Veronica's School into the record° A copy of the letter is attached on the following page° Mr. Leonard Valdivia, 220 Bonita Avenue, expressed concern with the proposed 30" pipe being installed after the installation of the 66" pipe~which had been proposed by Mr. Poletti and asked'qf tke drainage was adequate, why install the 30" pipeJ' He spoke of years of construction ex- perience and indicated that "one 8/4/82 Page 19 ST.

South San Francisco, Ca. 94080 July 19, 1982 [~fcr Roberta Cerri Teglia Grand Avenue ~c,ut!~ San Francisco, Ca. 94080 Mayor Teglia: Because of a prior committment, I can not attend the August 4th City Council Meeting. I am sending this letter in hopes. 'chat I can represent the views of Sro Veronica's in regards to tlae ,Avalon Park Storm Drainage System problem° My involvement with this problem started the night of Jan- uary 5~ 1982o The flash flooding was incredible to see. ~.~o priests, an attorney,members of the Mens' Club and two Sou~ San Francisco policemen can testify to the height of the water that night (above the window of a car). Alida Way was flooded half way up the steps of the Convent. Amazingly~ the next morning as I arrived for work (approximately 7:00 ~M) the water was gone. I realized at the time it would be difficult to convince officials of how bad it was because the water receded so quickly' that no one would believe our story. I realize the danger to the school children and school property of this type of flash flooding if it had occurred during daylight hours. Weeks later I received a copy of Mr° Yee's Avalon Storm Drain Study. It states on page 2, section III~ INSTALLATION OF 66" DRAINAGE PIPE - "Threfore, in the ev~t of an unusually intense storm or if for any reason the inlet to the 66" pipe is o~shructed and prevents water from entering the drainage system at this location, the water level in the ditch will rise and subsequently flow over the top of the 66" pipe and towards Alida Way. Any grading at the subject location shall be required to provide overland drainage~ from the end of Avalon Drive to Alida Way, to accomo- date any overflow from the drainage system°" ~nis section really frightens me° I already wi'tnessed an overflow on Jan- uary 5th - - how mud] more would we face with this "overland drainage" ? After attending one City Council meeting and one Planning Commission }{eeting, it became apparent that this controversy has reached more of an emotional level rather than a rational level. I feel the problem in a nutshell is whether the holding pond prevents more water from draining onto Alida Way than already does. Further~ will the extension of the 66" pipe 8/4/82 Page 19a filling of the holding pond with ,airt, add to the flood- oh !ems? ..:. Yee has claimed several times that the drainage system .,.'-~,~-t'ream is inadequate. I~ seems the main problem stems from ~-" vipe that exists under the playground at St. Veronica's 'r,~3.[, In a meeting with Mr. Poletti, he also told me that drainage line connects to tha~ 48" pipe from $outhwood; ra~king a bad situation worse. Mr, Poletti h~s been an established business man in South Francisco for many years. I respect him and also respect right to do ~,rhat he wants to do with his property. I have ~b$o!utely no problem with a building in that area or a road ~.ha-k .would connect to Alida, I would like to see this problem resolved for all parties. it would be good if Mr. Poletti could do ~hat he wanted with Lis property and_at the same time our childrens' safety and school property/~be jeopardized. I think it is important 5hat the Council carefully regard all parties' rights in this affair. I have no solutions for the problem but I have a couple of suggestions that I hope you will seriously consider. A study has been done by Mro Yee and a study has been done by Mr, Poletti's engineer, I think it is imperative that an independent study of the Avalon Storm Drainage System be conducted° An independent study could answer that main question. Will the 66" pipe and the dirt fill cause serious flooding problems? Also in reference to Section III: How much water "will rise and subsequently flow over the top of the 66" pipe and towards Alida Way"? If a '48" pipe beneath St0 Veronica's is the pro- lem, as Mr, Poletti suggests~ could Mr. Yee do a feasibility study as to replacing that 48" pipe and the one %hat comes from Soulzhwood? Maybe then there would be the capability of sending al! the water do~cnstream. As long as the drainage system is considered inadequa'he by Mr° Yee~ I suggest that any tamper- ing with %he line upstream be halted. If, in fact, %he system is inadequate any change~ especially like getting rid of the holding pond, seems illogical ~nd possibly d~nqerous. 8/4/82 Page 1 9b Page .~ summntion, it would be great to see this controversy · -md in a fair manner to all parties concerned, it is ..mportant that the city Council take care of the situation 3o you leave the holding pond as is, or do you make changes system that is already inadequate and have to deal L3re serious problems in the future rains.? %h~nk you for your time° Sincerely, Raymond L o John' P rincip a 1 8/4/82 Page 19c AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 19.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT thing that is against every concept of engineering, you never go from a large pipe to a small pipe, as a matter of fact it is just the other way around° Otherwise you are in for trouble." Joy Ann Wendler, 321 Granada Drive, expressed concern over the potential absorption rates and amount of surface run-off should the grading and filling of the area be completed and said that an Environmental Impact Report would address the concerns of the City and residents. Mro Mont'Eton, 226 Country Club Drive, spoke of the underground water courses in the area and the potential risks if the pipe was installed. Mro Loucks, 35 Fairway Drive, commented that water had been found on her pro- perty 2 to 3 feet underground° Janet Saunders, 419 Avalon Drive, spoke of the flooding conditions at Ponderosa and Fairway during the storm in January 1982. Mr. Walti presented a profile of the proposed grading plan which had been prepared by Mro Louis Arata and asked that the 'profile be included as an exhibit in the hearing and gave an in-depth explanation of t~e proposed grading plan for clarification° Mr° Walti stated "I think it is important to address the one comment that was made about the large pipe going into a small pipe. That is an existing condition today. You have a 66" pipe going into a 48" pipe. That is not the problem that is being created by this extension of this 66" pipe°" City Attorney Rogers stated "You are reviewing a decision by the Planning Commission in which 8/4/82 Page 20 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 19. Hearing - Appeal by Louis J. Poletti - Continued. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT they heard evidence and made a decision to deny a Negative Declaration°" He commented that only those items which had been presented to the Planning Commission should be considered when reviewing their decision° He explained the importance of the California Environmental Quality Act rules and regulations and how it applied to this matter. He further addressed the issue of an Environmental Impact Report. Councilman Nicolopulos stated that sewer problems were a severe problem throughout the City and that the storm drainage systems must be addressed in the near future. Mayor Teglia stated that each year Capital Improvement funds are allocated to capital improvement projects ~thin the City. She said that the projects are reviewed each year and funds.are 61located in accordance with priorities. Councilman Acosta questioned if the extension from Ponderosa would connect to the 48" pipe or the 66" pipe and stated that the photographs which had been submitted to Council indicated flooding at Alida & Southwood and Alida and Ponderosa° Director of Public Services Yee.~espQnded that the 48" pipe from Ponderosa would connect to the 36" pipe: Further discussion followed concerning causes of flooding; andtbe negati~ve declaration as submitted by the Department of Community Development° Councilman Acosta stated that the Negative Declaration gave no reason for an Environmental Impact Report, and commented on the findings made by the Planning Commission based on the information presented. 8/4/82 Page 21 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 19. Hearing - Appeal by Louis Jo Poletti - Continued° COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT Vice Mayor Addiego stated that he had felt comfortable in granting the installation of the pipe, however, 6,000 cubic yards of fill will disperse the wateG that it would have a possible environmental effect on the surrounding area. Mayor Teglia commented that the inability to grant a Negative Declaration did not mean that the pipe could not be installed, but that in order to proceed an EIR or a scoped EIR would have to be prepared. Discussion followed concerning the past developments in the area; filling of the howl.ding area; etc. Vice Mayor Addiego expressed co~cern over the basis for the findings con- tained in the Negative Declaration and the supporting findings. Councilman Damonte commented~]that the evidence which had been submitted had not indicated that the fill would have a significant ~mpacto Mro Stamatis said that the 66" pipe would act as a holding pond and when the pond is fi~'led it will overflow° Mayor Teglia made the following dis- closures: 1)"At one Point Mr. Poletti indicated that he was not even surehow he was going to develop this property, if he was even going to develop it; and at one point indicated although he did not make a firm offer that he might very well in the future be considering perhaps a donation of this property either to the City or to some other agency; 2) Today in my office I met w~th Mro Poletti again to hear and to see his plan and he did at that time indicate that he was willing to put some money up to address the specific deficiency under St. Veronica~s School and I think that at that time he indicated that he was willing to participate up 8/4/82 Page 22 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT 19o Hearing - Appeal by Louis Jo Poletti - Continued° RECESS: RECALL TO ORDER: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT to the figure of $12,500." In response to Vice Mayor Addiego's inquiry, City Attorney Rogers stated that the purpose of an Environmental Impact Report was to "provide the decision making body with information to help guide them in making their decision." Discussion followed concerning the City's responsibility with respect to a subservice drainage system; the importance of an EIR when address- ing the issue of liability; the cost of a scoped EIR.
