Corporation Yard:
M/S Damonte/Nicolopulos - To waive
further reading of the Ordinance.
Carried by unanimous voice vote.
M/S Damonte/Nicolopulos - To introduce
the Ordinance.
Carried by unanimous voice vote.
City Manager Birkelo stated that there
were two items to be discussed in rela-
tion to the Capital Improvement Budget:
1) the Corporation Yard in relation to
the Atkinson property; 2) Clarification on
the Civic Center Restoration items which
was requested at the last meeting.
Director of Public Services Yee described
the area proposed for the new
Corporation Yard and when it was deve-
loped there would not be a need for
Magnolia to be extended between North
Canal and Railroad Avenue. He suggested
vacating Magnolia as a street and retain
the right-of-way for various easements
such as for the San Francisco water lie
to go through, sewer lines, storm drain
lines. He stated that in addition to
that the City needed egress during
emergency times from the Corporation Yard
to Railroad Avenue. He spoke of the
discussions with the Atkinson people on
their plan to develop more parking on
their property in conjunction with the
Corporation Yard development and the
Basque Cultural Center's need for
parking. He stated that that was why he
needed Council direction on whether or
not to proceed with a vacation of
Magnolia or to have the road go through.
Discussion followed on private traffic;
the City would still retain control of
the property; extending Magnolia over the
Creek; whether the Mayfair residents
would like the extension; that the area
had been used for overflow parking; that
if the Basque Cultural Center and the
Atkinson Company wanted that property for
additional parking the City would be in a
negotiating position for the value of the

fee if Council consented to not having a
street go through; the three alter-
natives: 1) Having the street go through
as a street and people would be using
Railroad and Canal; 2) Developing the top
half of the right-of-way for access and
parking; 3) Negotiating a change of
ownership which still gave the City the
right of egress and ingress; that to
vacate Magnolia as a street was the most
likely alternative, etc.
Mr. Jim San Sebastian, Atkinson Property
Division Manager, stated that his company
had granted over flow parking to the
Basque Cultural Center to accommodate
needed additional parking. He continued,
the City needed access to the Corporation
Yard, so that was why the three alternate
schemes had been drafted and it was not
important which scheme was selected as it
would cost the same.
Discussion followed: traffic would have
to use Railroad Avenue in the initial
stages of the Atkinson development; pre-
paring the notice of vacation of the pro-
perty; evaluating the fee; minimizing
truck traffic on Orange.
Mayor Addiego stated that Mr. Yee had
direction from Council that it was
interested in a non-standard street
set-up.
Mr. Munoz, Group 4/Architecture, spoke of
Task 1 and 2 being immediate work of high
priority and spoke of the items approved
by Council on June 5, 1984 with a budget
of $86,000 - $114,000. He stated that he
needed direction from Council on where
the information desk should be located.
Council recessed the meeting at 8:20
p.m., for a field trip to determine where
the information desk should be located.
Mayor Addiego recalled the meeting to
order at 8:30 p.m., and stated that a
desk would be purchased and reside for
information purposes on the outer wall of
Community Development in the foyer.

Review of the Capital Improvement
Program for Fiscal Year 1984-85:
Restoration of City Hall - Continued.
Mr. Munoz stated that he would remove the
$5,000 in Task 1 for the information
desk. He asked for Council direction
that the hole in the upper floor would be
restored and a railing would be
installed.
Consensus of Council - To restore the
hole in the upper floor and install a
railing.
Councilwoman Teglia requested that no
action be taken on the restoration of the
original terrazzo finish on the first
floor until it had been determined that
the original finish could be restored -
otherwise the Council might want to car-
pet the area.
Mr. Munoz stated that he would proceed
with the necessary change orders.
Councilman Nicolopulos stated that there
was a problem wi th the first floor
ceiling and the heating and ventilation
in the building which would affect the
ceilings and this work should be done in
a timely fashion.
Mr. Munoz stated that a contractor had
advised him that the plaster was not in
good shape and to remove the spray on
insulation would not be sufficient and
the original structure would have to be
taken care of in addition to the roof
leakage.
Mayor Addiego stated that Council had no
choice if that is part of the structure
to preserve the building.
Councilwoman Teglia stated that the
heating and air conditioning system was
very important in terms of all of the
other work to be done.
Discussion followed on refurbishing the
toilets; repairing the ceiling of the
first floor; having approved the roof
hatch, power ladder removal, rear entry~
etc.
Mr. Munoz spoke of Task Option 4A, to

keep the existing HVAC units on the roof.
He stated that the basement had had all
the duct work replaced and put in new
grill and register locations. He stated
that regardless of what the Council
decided this evening the basement in
essence was ready to accept anything in
the future or will suffice as is.
He stated that Option 4B was a redesign
of the duct work on the first floor as an
interim move to hold off any financial
decisions on a new HVAC system on a new
competitive bid. He spoke of Task Option
4C a new HVAC system for City Hall for a
budget of $182,200.
Councilman Damonte questioned if the new
system would last ten years in that the
old system had never worked during the
past ten years.
Discussion followed on the price of Task 5
excluding the wood balustrade - $91~000;
that the gutter was not in a proper place
for a building of this type; doing the
balustrade at a later time by soliciting
funds; Task 6 restoration of clock tower;
Task 7A renovate main conference room;
Task 7B renovation of remainder of second
floor; Task 7C renovation of first floor;
searching for national, state, or federal
restoration funds; the possibility of
$100,000 as a grant for historical
buildings.
Consensus of Council - Agreement on Task
1 and 2, 4C; Approve Task 5 with the
exclusion of the balustrade.
Director of Public Services Yee stated
that it would take a year for the design
and going out to bid for the HVAC system
and that the outside painting could be
done later with a separate contract.
Mr. Munoz stated that the carpeting could
be broken out as a separate contract
rather than be done by the present
contractor and he felt that this would be
advantageous.

Director of Public Services Yee stated
that it would take a change order to do
the restrooms, but the HVAC system would
require an amendment to the contract for
the fee.

sider some carpet replacement and new

for a $1,300 water faucet.
City Manager Birkelo stated that with the
transfer that was made of $750,000 from
the Operating Budget he came up with the
balance of $558,000 which had been allo-
cated tonight to the Civic Center
Renovation. He stated that the Revenue
Sharing Fund balance at the end of this
next fiscal year would be $1,600,000 and
that some time ago Council had asked if
the Corporation Yard could be funded out
of it; that on a pay as you go basis it
would take three years, taking a half
million a year out of Revenue Sharing
plus the share of the Spruce property
to come close to doing that; leaving
the money in there Staff would like to
have time to look at other sources of
funding because the design of the
Corporation Yard would be $250,000.
Discussion followed on the Street
Division's projects with respect to fun-
ding; priority; etc.
Councilwoman Teglia asked if there would
be an EIR for the North Canal extension
and requested that a Negative Declaration
