implementation of the Historic
Preservation Ordinance and the introduc-
tory review of the Capital Improvement
Program were intended to be informational
items.
Mayor Teglia questioned if anyone was at
the meeting to speak on the Historic
Preservation Ordinance.
City Clerk Battaya stated that Edna Harks
stated that she wanted to address the
Council on the subject later in the
meeting after the Closed Session.
Mayor Teglia then questioned if anyone
was at the meeting to speak on the
Capital Improvement Program - and
received no response. She then asked if
the people in the audience where there for
the matters to be discussed in Closed
Session, i.e., personnel matters, labor
relations or litigation on the Serramonte
Park Plaza.
Mr. Francis McAuley stated that he would
like to make a statement before the
Council on labor relations before
adjourning to a Closed Session.
Mayor Teglia requested direction from the
City Attorney.
City Attorney Armento stated that it was
up to the Council if they chose to be
addressed by Mr. McAuley before the
Closed Session.
Mr. McAuley stated that his bargaining
units had for some time been involved in
negotiations and felt that the Council
should have background information from
the unit representatives before holding
the Closed Session with Staff.
He stated that this issue predated the
present Staff. He stated that nego-
tiations had started in 1983 with
Personnel Director Caroline Marshall, who
had agreed to do a complete comparable

worth study of all people in Units 3 and
9. He continued, with a restructuring of
the job classes and clarification of the
career ladders. He stated that this was
to have been done internally with appli-
cations in the City, and externally with
applications from the private sector.
He stated that Ms. Marshall had come down
to the Street Department and had made a
commitment to the employees of an intent
to study the male dominated classes
first; align those and then study the
female classes using the comparable worth
theory. He stated that with that in
mind, the Units had signed a contract in
1983 for the 1984-85 year.
He stated that that study was supposed to
have been done and implemented 45 days
after signing the contract. He stated
that the study was supposed to have been
completed, and then a meet and confer
over the implementation some 45 days
after the contract was signed.
Vice Mayor Addiego questioned if that had
been a verbal representation from the
Personnel Director at that time.
Mr. McAuley stated that it was not ver-
bal and had been written into the
contract.
Mayor Teglia asked that that section of
the contract be underlined and given to
her for discussion in the Closed Session.
Mr. McAuley stated that there had been a
few meetings with Ms. Marshall after
that wherein she had passed out
questionnaires that had been completed,
however no results had ever come forward.
He stated that the employees got tired of
this treatment and forced the issue into
mediation, which had taken a year and
then there had been another agreement.
He stated that the new agreement, dated
September 1984, had been for the female

dominated positions, which the units had
been half satisfied with, but still
wanted the whole job done.
He stated that in May 1985 there had been
a memo from the Personnel Office saying
that Mr. Oppenheimer would be doing a
lengthy, in-depth study. He stated that
that study had been received in
September, and that revisions had been
made in October. He stated that the
study was done, but not in full - in that
it had not been compared with the private
sector.
Mr. Bob Reid submitted photos for
Council consideration which showed
flooding of his property that had
occurred that morning.
CLOSED SESSION
Council adjourned to a Closed Session for
the items mentioned and a litigation
matter of Serramonte Park Plaza at 7:28
p,ml
Mayor Teglia recalled the meeting to
order at 10:15 p.m., all Council present,
no action taken; specific direction was
given to the negotiating team on Mr.
McAuley's item.
Director of Recreation & Community
Services Norton gave an update of the
activities of the Historic Preservation
Commission activities and implementation
of a program in accordance with the
Commission Ordinance.
He provided background information on the
process: receipt of a draft historic sur-
vey on the status of various properties
(187 in relation to the National Historic
Trust); placing a moratorium on the
issuance of building permits on the pro-
perties, etc.
He stated that the Commission had been

Improvement Program. ~/~O
Resources/properties identified/listed in
the local survey conducted by the S.S.F.
Historical Society; 2) Resources/
properties given a ranking of 4D or
higher in the survey (bluebook).
He stated that it became important to
establish standards to condense the list
to potential resources that were clearly
worth study, and on 9/11/86 the
Commission had been presented with cri-
teria to eliminate that initial list to a
comfortable 65-70 properties.
Discussion followed: on the preliminary
list of designated candidates; reference
numbered to the blue book; page number
and rating survey; public hearings to be
held by the Historical Commission before
a building permit would be allowed for
rehabilitation of a public resource; the
designations: unusual tree, a culvert
that was not in existence, the eternal
flame that was not at City Hall; the
Council's role being only that of the
appeal process; the building at 300 Grand
Avenue being for sale and designated an
historical resource; that an historical
resource designation could not impose an
undue hardship on an individual, and in
the hearing process the owner would have
to bring forth their position.
Discussion followed on the ratings for
local and national significance; the two
criterias; potential designated
districts; that many properties on the
list were not the original structures,
and were potential conflicts; that the
downtown area could qualify as a district
for tax incentives for renovation; that
forming a district would prohibit having
shops on breezeways; goals for the down-
town plan, etc.
City Manager Birkelo discussed the sum-
mary of funds available for the Capital
Improvement Program (a copy of which is
attached and a permanent part of the
record of this meeting).
