AGENDA
ACTION TAKEN
Staff Report 7/30/86 that gives an
informational report on the imple-
mentation of the Parking Study.
Director of Finance Lipton stated that on
7/8/86 the Planning Division had pre-
sented a downtown revitalization "Main
Street" program to the Parking
Commission. He stated that the
Commission had been impressed with the
overall concept and realized that some of
the items in the recommended parking
study would be better served by coor-
dinating them with the proposed revitali-
zation program.
He stated that the following items pre-
viously discussed with the Council were
supported by survey responses from
Finance, Planning, Police and the City
Manager's Office: Implement free parking
at Miller/Maple lot; Improve "pathfinder"
signage; Modify Parking District
Management; Redefine boundaries; Public
Relations/Promotion; Hire Enforcement
Officer; Modify Parking Ordinance to
impose time limits on all metered spaces;
Change meters on Miller from Maple to
Linden to 10 hours, 5~ per hour; Increase
on-street meter rates to 306 for two
hours; Change time limits on Grand Avenue
to one hour, Airport to Walnut Avenue;
Modify In-Lieu Fee Ordinance; Buy parcel
at Cypress and Miller; Construct a 32
space lot; Explore purchase option adja-
cent to Lots 3, 8 and 10 for an expanded
facility; Consider new walkways between
lanes and Grand Avenue as development
occurs.
Chairman Sciandri stated that after
working with the Consultant for nine
months to effect this plan, there was
backing from the people in the area that
want this plan implemented soon. He
stated that at the present time the
resurfacing of the lots had gone to bid;
and if the new parking enforcement
officer was hired it would all be for the
good of the people.
He stated that the plan was primarily to
put employees and the merchants cars in
the lots and have the consumers park on
the street, but to effect this it must
all work together.

Staff Report 7/30/86 that gives
an informational report on the
implementation of the Parking
Study.
Commissioner Welker stated that putting
off some of the alterations might cause a
hindrance with the redevelopment aspects
of the downtown.
He stated that a parking lot for the 300
block would not help the 200 block which
already had a serious parking problem
Chairman Matteucci stated that the
Commission was looking towards the future
and the purchase of additional lots down
the line to alleviate parking problems.
Discussion followed: implementing the
lot on Miller; improving the pathfinder;
signage in the lanes being effected in an
inexpensive manner; that the present
pathfinders were not sufficient; having a
sign contest with the local schools;
using metal signs; the need for a higher
enforcement of police; that the funding
of an additional enforcement officer
would come from the Parking District
Funds; that the Parking District should
end at Walnut rather than at Spruce;
increasing meter fees; traffic and
parking problems on Linden Avenue; that
the revenue from ticketing went into the
General Fund; that if the Parking
District was expanded the additional
enforcement officer would be needed more
than ever; that the Parking District Fund
had a balance of $380,000; that the ori-
ginal Parking District bonds had been
retired; that the annual revenue was
approximately $135,000; that the District
had always been able to pay off the bond
debt and still generate money to maintain
the District; that there was a consensus
of the Commission to purchase additional
lots.
Vice Mayor Addiego and Councilman Haffey
stated that they had no problem with the
purchase of the lot.
Councilman Nicolopulos stated he was
against purchasing additional lots until
the Council saw the practicality of going
for a high rise lot. He stated that in

purchased.

was established for the lot, the Council

the Commission and the Council had been
battling with from specific guidelines
and that this would rectify errors.
She stated that the Commission had
reviewed the General Plan and the
background material and had addressed the
following major issues Proposed uses in
vacated and operating schools with vacant
space require special consideration and
the City should also analyze the cumu-
lative impacts of changing a school to a
multi-use facility; Additions to single-
family homes should be compatible with
the existing house and with the
surrounding neighborhood; Senior citizen
housing, which should not be restricted
to any particular section of the City,
may be permitted at a maximum density of
50 units/acre. The amount of required
parking would be subject to the level of
care provided at the facility, the
availability of public transportation,
etc.; With regard to hotels in the Retail
Commercial and Planned Commercial areas,
it was determined that the limitation of
50 rooms was not a valid one and a new
Policy 38 was being proposed to clarify
the intent of the limitation; Policy 10,
fast food restaurants should be
restricted to E1 Camino Real; Monument
signs are preferable to pole signs;
Landscaping policies should be incor-
porated, reflecting existing Design
Review policies; Open storage areas
should be restricted to the light

screened from view; determination that
auto, truck and/or equipment lots should
be located under major utility lines in
the industrial and planned commercial
areas and not just along So. Airport
Blvd.

issues recited for change in the
