The pledge of allegiance was recited.
Police Chief Datzman stated that Red
Ribbon Week was part of a national "Just
Say No To Drugs" campaign coordinated by
Nancy Reagan, Congressman Lantos, State
Attorney General's Office and many San
Mateo County organizations. He stated
that the badges he would present to
Council had been presented to all school
children above the first grade level. He
stated that the badges had been provided
by Jerry Wilkinson, South San Francisco
Rotary Club, South San Francisco Lions
Club, South San Francisco Citizen Crime
Prevention Committee and many department
members.
Mayor Teglia read the Proclamation aloud
and presented it to the Police Chief.
Mayor Teglia stated that this presen-
tation was for the benefit of the City
Council, and put on by the Developer of
the Serramonte Park Plaza Project adja-
cent to the West Winston Manor neigh-
borhood in the City of Daly City. She
stated that this City was challenging the
environmental process, and that part of
the process was for the City to attend a
settlement meeting. She continued, as a
result of that meeting the Developer
would appear at the meeting to offer the
same information to this Council as that
which had been presented to the Daly City
Council.

PRESENTATIONS
She stated that this was not a public
hearing, that the project was not in this
City's jurisdiction, and that the presen-
tation was for clarification to the City
Council on the project. She stated that
the Council would not be entertaining
questions or comments from the public,
however anyone could speak on the issue
under Oral Communications.
Mr. Jerry Lewis, stated that he repre-
sented McKinly Property Co., who was the
Developer of the Project. He stated that
it was an office building, planned deve-
lopment, of 151,000 square feet at the
southeast corner of Hickey Boulevard and
Highway 280.
He stated that the following would be
discussed on mitigation measures being
taken to resolve concerns: traffic;
landscaping, as it related to the visual
impacts; erosion control; slope stability
and grading; parking; and other points.
Mr. Steve Thompson, Senior Design
Researcher, spoke of the reduction in the
length and height of the building to 40%
smaller than originally presented to Daly
City. He proceeded to show overlays of
the proposed building as originally pro-
posed and the scaled down building by one
floor. He described the following: the
proposed landscaping; that one exterior
side of the building would be composed of
precast concrete and stone elements and
glass that pedestrians would see; that
three sides of the building would be a
simple expression of horizontal banding
with variegated set back elements with
landscaping above; that the foundation
had been identified as a potential
problem area; that the land had been
developed by CALTRANS a number of years
ago when the on-off ramps were changed
and Hickey Blvd. was restructured,
wherein a good deal of the dirt that was
placed there in a manner that would not
meet today's specifications; that his

firm was required to remove a great deal
of material and to penetrate through all
of that material to solid bearing below
so the preliminary soil report that was
accepted by the EIR Consultant required
an 80' long piles through that material
for stability on the bedrock; that
currently there was a great deal of run-
off on the surface of the land, which
would be prevented with the development
which would channel the water underground
for drainage, etc.
Mr. Mike Ashley, Civil Engineering,
described the following: the grading and
drainage plans; the plans for 40% sloped
landscaping; that the site was 2.65
acres, etc.
Mr. Garry Layman, Landscape Architect,
addressed the following issues of con-
cern: landscaping in reference to soil
stabilization and soil masses; visual
concerns; the scale of the building rela-
tive to the property owners and Clay Park
below; the various types of trees to be
planted and the projected rate of growth,
etc.
Mr. Ken Bankston, Traffic Engineer,
described the traffic concerns: that a
right turn driveway was being eliminated;
that a study had been made of Hickey
Blvd., that the two stop signs in the
area were inadequate; the need for a
separate left turn to Crown Colony; the
need for traffic signals and additional
lanes; removal of a right turn lane; the
need for traffic signals and additional
lanes; that the project would only
increase traffic by 4%; that $400,000 was
being spent for an arterial system for
the two intersections.
Discussion followed: that Daly City pro-
jects had had a cumulative impact on
Longford without plans to improve the
street; parking problems; whether

So ordered.
ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
Mayor Teglia stated that anyone who would
like to ask questions on the presentation
made on Serramonte Park Plaza should step
to the dais.
Mr. Douglas Butler, 133 Adrian Ave.,
stated that the original design presen-
tation by the Developer to Daly City was
for 212,000 sq. ft. and seven stories,
and later presented was 151,000 sq. ft.
with six stories. He stated that the
Developer was trying to say that that was
a major reduction after the lawsuit was
filed - which was not the case.
He rebutted the following: that the
storm drains had been a problem for many
years, which this development would not
change; existing traffic problems on
Longford would be further impacted by the
development; that the structure had not
been designed to fit the site; the
problem of soil instability; that the
10/29/86

ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
site was best suited for a one-to-two
story restaurant; the moratorium on sewer
hook-ups should have prevented the pro-
ject's approval; that the storm drains
had been a major problem for many years,
and had caused one home to be flooded
because of the run-off; concern over
massive excavation and removal of trees;
that the use of pool cars did not work;
the error of changing the original C-1
zoning; that in good land use planning a
structure should fit the site; that the
community was opposed to the six story
development, etc.
Mayor Teglia stated that this Project was
not in the Council's jurisdiction and the
City could only seek avenues for legal
challenge to negotiate for the
neighborhood.
Councilman Haffey stated that the origi-
nal zoning of the site as C-1 could pro-
vide the avenue of pursuit needed by the
Council.
Mr. Jahnes Gillingham, 146 Dundee, stated
that the neighborhood had planted all of
the trees on the site seventeen years ago
from seedlings to keep the site from
sliding down on their homes. He stated
that the trees were 28' tall after
seventeen years of growth due to the
weather.
Ms. Sharon Alvera, 204 Mansfield Dr.,
stated that she was representing the West
Winston Manor Community Assn. and again
asked for continued Council support to
stop the construction of the project.
She stated that trees the Developer
intended to plant would not equal one-
third of the height of the building
at maximum growth. She questioned the
size of this building as compared to
Crown Colony, which was four stories.

She stated that another concern was that
in exiting 280 north, there was not
room for four lanes to go onto Hickey
Blvd., - rather, there was barely room
for two lanes.
Mr. Carl Johnson, 134 Dundee Dr., stated
that the building was going to be in his
backyard. He questioned the maximum
number of people that would be allowed in
the 151,000 sq. ft. building by the Fire
Department. He questioned also whether
the over-flow parking would be on Hickey,
Dundee, Clay or Longford.
He stated that there had been land slip-
page on Longford as early as 1982-83 and
flooding on the 200 block of Dundee in
back of 280. He stated that he had put
reinforcing wire and rebar in his
backyard to retain the soil.
Mr. Steve Thompson stated that the off-
ramps could be modified with construc-
tion, in that they had to be graded and
made larger because the land was there to
be used. He stated that the building
would not go to the property line above
the park. He stated that the 151,000 sq.
ft. would probably sustain about 700
people - 200 sq. ft. per person in
occupancy.
He stated that the problems on Longford
had not been identified in the traffic
study or the EIR, however land movement
was something that the project would pre-
vent rather than cause.
Ms. Carol Borardi, President of the
Homeowners Assn. reiterated the severe
traffic problems this project would
present.
Mr. Michael Boraseri, member of the Board
of Directors of West Winston Manor Home-
owners Assn., stated that the community

unfortunately was the victim of the lack
of concern of Daly City by the absence of
a good neighbor policy.
Mr. Michael Duncan, 235 Whitlow, stated
that it was unrealistic to not have a
right turn only lane on the northbound
exit off of 280.
He stated that the Developer should keep
the building wide, but scale it down to a
four story building, wherein they would
have the same amount of square footage.
Ms. Jo Romine, 113 Dunman Way, stated
that the small street where she lived had
been greatly impacted by construction
over the years. She questioned if anyone
in City government had taken a recent
test on the bridge or the earth area
below it, because of the vibrations
occurring from the traffic coming down
the Boulevard and over Dundee.
Mayor Teglia stated that this would be
turned over to the Engineering Department
for a report, as the bridge was within
this City's jurisdiction.
Ms. Mina Welker, 145 Longford Dr., stated
that if the building was appropriate for
the area it would not have to be masked
by trees.
Ms. Mary Vadim, 203 Mansville Dr.,
expressed concern that there was not an
access on Hickey Blvd. to this site, and
no room for the equipment that was
necessary to clear and grade the land.
She stated that during the project there
would be rain and she was concerned about
what would happen to people's property if
there were slides. She questioned the
possible recourses against the Developer
and/or Daly City in the event of dirt
coming onto people's property.
Mayor Teglia stated that a number of
questions had been asked and noted, and

Councilman Drago requested that direction

Councilman Drago stated that he had
received numerous complaints on rat
sightings throughout the City. He stated
that he wanted to supply the citizenry
with rat poison and use an educational
process to advise people on where to put
the bait. He stated that San Bruno was
still supplying individuals with the rat
poison.
Mayor Teglia requested the City Attorney
to investigate potential liability

Attys. was $9,000 rather than $4,000 for

Director of Finance Lipton stated that
Shearwater had no revenue to pay for
current development or lawsuits, so this
was being advanced by the City as an
expense by the City paid to the
Redevelopment Agency.

Councilman Nicolopulos stated that in the
Fire Chief's report it had said that the
fees would not exceed the cost of pro-
viding the service. He questioned if the
fees were approaching the cost of the
private carriers.
Fire Chief Feuerstein stated that a call
for the private sector was $315, while
the City's fee was $220 for advanced life
support.
Councilman Nicolopulos questioned what
the increased fees would realize
annually.
Director of Finance Lipton stated that
the estimated annual increase would be
approximately $44,000 for the total
increases.
Councilman Drago stated that increasing
City fees every six months was too
often. He stated that he could see an
80% increase in two years - which he felt
was too excessive, and that life
threatening support transport services
should be at a lesser cost.
He stated that he was concerned with the
change in policy in transporting. He
stated that now the department was
talking about a basic life support
system, which the system was not intended
to do - the contract had been intended to
transport life threatening cases.
He stated that if the City started
running everyone, then the City would
be in the ambulance business by also
transporting people with sprained ankles.
He stated that the contract should read
advanced life support systems only, life
threatening, and forget the basic life
support. He stated that the $158 had
been established to improve patient care
at a lower cost for everybody.

question and since it was a matter of
property negotiations it could be
discussed briefly in Closed Session.
Mayor Teglia stated that the Council
would adjourn to a Closed Session for
property negotiations in reference to a
letter received on Item No. 14., and the
time was 10:40 p.m.
Mayor Teglia recalled the meeting to
order at 11:06 p.m., all Council present,
no action taken.
Director of Planning Smith gave a brief
report on those items covered on the pro-
posed zoning ordinance by the City
Council in the past three months: that
the adult entertainment section had gone
to an overlay district; that the
Westborough townhomes had become an
overlay district based upon direction by
the Council; had responded to Mr. Penna's
letter on density regulations - the
general plan set the benchmark density
for high density residential at 30 units
per acre and a minimum site area per
dwelling unit at 1,452; that the revised
zoning ordinance proposed a minimum site
area for 2,000 sq. ft. per dwelling area
for those parcels that are less than
10,000 sq. ft. which provided a sliding
scale in order to encourage larger lots;
that larger lots provided more flexibi-
lity in arranging the parking and pro-
viding the circulation.
She stated that in a 50' lot it was a
bare minimum of what one could do for a
full length parking space, 5' setback and
a 25' two way driveway. She continued,
placing a minimum of 10,000 sq. ft. for
the higher number of units, for the four
units, was to encourage assemblage of
these lots.
She stated that Mr. Penna's letter
requested that a cut-off point be set at
7,000 sq. ft. which would allow four

only be three units allowed. She stated
that on a 50' x 140' lot there could be
three units under the old General Plan
and that under current zoning there could
be seven units.
Mayor Teglia stated that she had a
problem with down-zoning the lots to that
degree.
Deputy City Manager/CD&E Lewis stated
that 615 Baden Ave. had five units in a
row and it was difficult to maneuver
autos in and out successfully because of
the size of the lot.
Discussion followed: that many old
structures had been built before off-
street parking had been required, and the
ordinance did not allow incentives to
tear down the structures and rebuild to
maximize any potential; that people could
maximize their value by combining two
lots and building units.
Director of Planning Smith continued the
staff report: off-street parking and
loading; the in-lieu parking fee had been
eliminated; the parking space size had
been changed; dwelling units with no off-
street parking additions were allowed;
adding a section that read, "no more than
50% of the required off-street parking
spaces for a building or use may be
supplied by parking facilities for any
other building;" that additional off-
street parking facilities in connection
with the occupancy or use of a building
in a commercial or industrial area;
antenna regulations; further modifica-
tions were to be made in line with
Council direction, etc.
Discussion followed: that the sign ordi-
nance had been sent back to the Planning
Commission and was not a part of the
zoning ordinance; whether there would be

potential problems in parking in the
downtown area with the adoption of the
ordinance; the zone for mobile and manu-
factured homes; 6' maximum fences being
too restrictive for innovative ideas for
side and back yards when it did not
involve safety; that a variance could be
applied for if there was justification
for a fence over the height limits; that
the language should be changed to read
that a permit was the only thing required
for a fence higher than 6'; discouraging
defective goods stores, and removing same
from a C-1 zone.
Consensus of Council - To remove defec-
tive goods stores from a C-1 zone.
Neil Turner, Esq., stated that he was
representin9 Mr. Pete Mazzanti, and
understood that his letter had been
discussed in Closed Session with the City
Attorney. He requested that the
Mazzanti's desire for the status quo
being preserved in regard to the zoning
of his property be honored. He stated
that he had understood that staff had
proposed a modification to the existing
zoning ordinance which would accomplish
that end, but the Council was anxious to
go forward with the existing proposal -
which result would be to transform some
of Mr. Mazzanti's property into open
space through down zoning.
He stated that he also understood that
Council was prepared to go on record that
it would not take advantage of the fact
that a portion of his property was going
to be down zoned in the negotiations for
the purchase of his property.
He stated that of the real concerns of
Mr. Mazzanti, is that Council in the
midst of the negotiations would down zone
his property with a lower market value
and take advantage of that situation by
obtaining a discount on his property. He

stated that his letter indicated that if
the Council attempted to do something
like that it would raise the issue of
litigation and inverse condemnation. He
requested a direct expression from the
Council that it would not take advantage
of the proposed down zoning and accept
staff's recommendation for minor modifi-
cation to the overall proposal; preserve
the status quo and the prospective
problem would not arise.
Mayor Teglia stated that staff had not
come to the Council with a
recommendation.
Neil Turner, Esq., stated that whatever
the procedural status suggested by the
City Attorney should be accepted while
negotiations continued, and when the pro-
perty transferred to the City either by
sale or by condemnation there was no
problem with the City then transforming
the zoning back to the way it ultimately
was.
Mayor Teglia stated that she would go on
record with the following: that the City
had no intention of attempting to nego-
tiate a lower price based on open space
zoning; that the basis for evaluation
currently being used, will continue to be
used in negotiation.
Neil Turner, Esq., stated that the nego-
tiations would then continue on the basis
of the existing zoning.
Mayor Teglia stated that that was true,
but the zoning would be changed by this
ordinance, but the negotiations would
proceed on the current premises.
M/S Haffey/Addiego - To introduce the
Ordinance by title only.
Director of Planning Smith questioned if
the Council wished to add the two provi-

and Budget, and that since that time the
City had received a supplemental grant of
$82,000 that made a total grant of
$483,000 for the fiscal year.
He stated that because of the severe cut-
backs in general revenue sharing funds
the recommendation from staff was to use
CDBG funds for the following agencies:
Center for the Independence of the
Disabled - $10,000; Neighborhood Services
Center - $20,000; Friends to Parents -
$7,500; San Mateo Women's Shelter -
$2,000; Noise Insulation Program -
$20,000; Smoke Detector Program - $5,000;
Housing Rehabilitation Program - $11,050;
General Administration - $6,450.
Mayor Teglia invited those wishing to
speak for or against the funding to step
to the dais.
Ms. Marsha Waldren, Center for the
Independence of the Disabled, spoke of
the proposals submitted for CDBG funds:
women/children's program; counseling
program; information and referral.
Discussion followed: funds for han-
dicapped improvements were to be spent in
this City; that the funds had to be spent
in the fiscal year or the City had the
option to extend the contract.
Mayor Teglia closed the Public Hearing.
Discussion followed: on decreasing the
Housing Rehabilitation Program to $9,500
and increasing the Center for the
Independence of the Disabled to $12,000;
that other means should be looked at to
fund the 20% for noise insulation so that
a precedence was not set.
M/S Haffey/Addiego - To adopt the amended
Resolution to reflect $12,000 for the
Center for the Independence of the
Disabled, and $9,500 for the Housing
Rehabilitation Program.
