Mayor Teglia said it was her under-
standing that this was not a legal
hearing, but that the City wished
to have a hearing and desired public
input.
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

Dear Roberta,
We wish to inform you, that at the regular scheduled meeting of
the Board of Directors, of the Westborougl~ Homeowners Improve-
ment Association, on Wednesday July 2~, 1982, the following action
was taken:
'~I/S/C That we withdraw our ietter to the Director of Com-
munity Development, City of So. 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. ~'--'~- ~ -

who were opposed to the removal
of the stairway; also comments
had been received in favor of the
removal of the stairway from Jimmie

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.

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

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

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

of the proposed stairway.
Mro Leonard Valdivia, 220 Bonita Avenue,

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

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

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

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

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

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

Mr. Leonard Valdivia, 220 Bonita Avenue,

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.

of engineering, you never go from a

way around° Otherwise you are in

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,

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°"

commented that only those items which

the importance of the California
Environmental Quality Act rules and
regulations and how it applied to this
