City Attorney Rogers stated that at the

there had been a discussion of the
bankruptcy proceedings and the issue of
whether the Trustee should have been
notified of the hearing. He continued,
the City does have the right to proceed
with the revocation and recommended that
the Council refer the matter back to the
Commission for a properly noticed
hearing. He stated that there had been
vehement opposition by a Commissioner to
the City Attorney taking sworn testimony.
He stated that the Commissioner felt that
this intimidated a citizen wishing to
speak and saw no necessity to have the
speaker sworn in.
Councilwoman Teglia asked if the swearing
in process served the public.
City Attorney Rogers stated that other
cities followed the practice and felt
that sworn evidence would aid the City in
a Court of Law. He suggested that the
Council recommend that the Planning
Commission follow the City Attorney's
recommendation of using sworn testimony.
Discussion followed on sworn vs. non-
sworn testimony; the rules of evidence on

there was a need to hire more workmenJ
Vice Mayor Damonte questioned why the

CITY MANAGER
Mayor Addiego invited anyone wishing to
speak on the item to step to the dais~
Mr. Rich Diodadi, Owner/Developer of the
Oyster Point Business Park, stated that
he had a form before him that he had
never seen before. He stated that on
page 2 of 2 there was an example which
read: fifty thousand square feet
building ten percent, office space and
manufacturing ten percent; on the bottom
it reads warehouse 4.5 as a ratio of what
is being usedJ He questioned who had
done the traffic study. He stated that
in all the meetings with the City the
office space had been represented as 4J5j
He stated that if one took the example of
what was on the sheet, fifty thousand
square feet, the formula worked out would
be $41,580 -- he went on in great detail on
the mathematical equations using the for-
mulaJ He stated that in all of the
meetings 4J5 represented the warehouse
with office space, which were not separate
items.
Mayor Addiego questioned if Mr~ Diodadi's
point was that a warehouse, depending on
its size, would incorporate so much
office space.
Mr. Diodadi stated yes, that it had been
in the TKA report.
City Manager Birkelo stated that he did
not recall if it had been discussed
openly~ He stated he thought it had been
recommended for inclusion in the formula
discribing how the application of the
trips to the various land uses should be
applied by the Department of Community
Development and the Department of Public
Services. He stated that he did not know
if that was a part of the ADT studyJ
He stated that the traffic generation
rates resulted from a study done by
Traffic Engineers Institute, which
studied the various types of uses; when
they received the results the recommen-
dation was that an average be applied to
each land use.

CITY MANAGER
Director of Public Services Yee stated
that he believed that Mr~ Diodadi's con-
cern was that during previous discussions
concerning his development, where he has
not only develoment and office space
intermingled with the warehousing in the
same building. He continued, in Mr;
Diodadi's mind he was using 4.5 where we
have in our exhibit that a warehouse is
4.5, but office space is 12,3; and he is
concerned that when the time comes to
interpret his project the warehousing
protion will be 4.5 and the office will
be 12.3.
Mayor Addiego commented that his conten-
tion was that in the normal course of
events some office space is incidental to
warehouse operations and he believes the
4,5 figure incorporates that.
Mr~ Diodadi stated that he had estimates
from the City that included the warehouse
with the building.
Director of Public Services Yee stated
that when Staff developed Exhibit I it
did not consider the Homart or Diodadi
projects, that Staff had taken it as a
separate definition - where office space
is 12.3, warehousing is 4.5, etc. He
stated that there had been a discussion
with the City Manager and the City
Attorney related to Diodadi's development
because Staff was in the process of pre-
paring an agreement. He stated that
Staff had to define Mr. Diodadi's
building - which land use category it
fell under.
Mayor Addiego stated that he disagreed,
He stated that Staff had to start by
defining the 4.5,
City Manager Birkelo stated that only
when it becomes incidental to the pri-
mary class.
Mayor Addiego stated that if there was an
unusual amount of office space then the
12,3 could apply,

CITY MANAGER
City Manager Birkelo stated that if there
was 10% or more of a different use then
apply a different factor to it,
City Manager Birkelo said that if the
policy was.ambiguous then it needed to be
dealt with.
Councilman Acosta stated that if there
was a ten thousand square feet warehouse
the City was not going to turn around and
charge the developer 4.5 for the ten
thousand square feet, but would take off
two thousand feet for office space before
making the calculation.
Mr~ Diodadi stated that the two thousand
square feet was already in the number and
the developer was being charged twice,
Councilwoman Teglia stated that if there
were any more issues to be identified
that those should be explored so when it
comes back the Council could act on the
matter.
Mr. Diodadi stated that he had been very
successful with the marina, the warehouse
and office space, however he had found
that in leasing the office space he was
having difficulty because of the com-
petition. He stated that he had lost
Delta Airlines, who had gone to Bayhill
for office space because of the
assessment for the overpass and freeway
which was compounded by the BCDC
assessment. He stated that the conven-
tion center had been lost that was to
have gone up on the Woolworth property;
lost the sale of Dubuque. He stated that
rather than use this formula which hurt
the developers it would be fairer to
include everyone in the area in an
assessment district before the City went
any further. He stated that he was 100%
in favor of the overpass, however in the
way that the City was approaching the
matter it was hurting the developer.
City Manager Bi rlelo stated that he had
no objection to accelerating the study

as to when the City could substitute an
assessment district for the method the
City is now employing; to enforce this
program which was a moratorium as to con-
ditions of the use permits. He stated
that he realized Mr. Haskins' concern was
that a lot of other businesses would
generate traffic in the future, however
once the City gets money and starts
building the overpass it would not be
interested in going back and pursuing
those businesses not in the original
agreement. He stated that an assessment
district would not only spread the base
but would give assurance that others will
be included but it would spread the terms
if a payment, cash up front, is a
problem.
Mr~ Diodadi stated that it was not fair
for three developers to pay for the over-
pass when if an assessment district was
established the base would be spread and
it would be fairer to the developers with
less fees to get their projects off the
groundj
Mayor Addiego stated that the item would
be continued to the 11/2/83 to clarify and
get a definition of that figure.

ITEMS FROM STAFF
Director of Community Development
Dell'Angela stated that the report was an
analysis done by Staff on ABAG's pro-
jected housing needs for the City for the
period of 1980-1990. He stated that ABAG
was compelled by State Law to look at
housing needs for the nine county bay
area region. He stated that ABAG had
submitted figures to each City in July
and that the cities had 90 days in which
to comply. He stated that if a City
disagreed with the figures based on
planning and current statistics they had
to respond by 10/24 or 10/28. He spoke
in detail of the analysis of housing in
the report. He stated that the conclu-
sion Staff had reached was that the City
had a significantly larger amount of
housing units which were affordable for
low and very low income people than the
needs of the community required~ He
stated that Staff recommended that
Council tell ABAG that the census infor-
mation did not substantiate a heavy
assignment of low and very low income
units to the City of South San Francisco
in the 1980-1990 time frame. He further
recommended that Council accept the 2,166
units as being a target for the City to
construct that many units in the next ten
years, which he felt was a build out
capacity. He suggested building 129 low
income units and not be required to build
any very low income units. He stated
that the needs in the community were for
moderate and upper moderate income and
projected the figure for moderate income
as 851 units; above moderate income as
1,186 units. He stated that upon adop-
tion of the Resolution he would convey
the Resolution and the proposed figures
to ABAG for approval. He stated that it
was important to know that the City's
policy was not to increase housing oppor-
tunities for lower income people in the
community in the future, rather it is a
legitimate attempt to respond to a legal
requirement and to respond to what Staff
felt was arbitrary dwelling unit assign-
ments proposed by ABAG for this City.
