ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
Mr. Julian Cane, 1650 So. Amphlett
Blvd., #312, San Mateo, stated that he
represented the San Mateo County Hotel
and Restaurant Association. He requested
the Council to reconsider its position on
the smoking ordinance in reference to
hotels and restaurants in the community,
and establish a subcommittee to review it
with members of the industry, and make a
recommendation to the Council for amend-
ment.

He stated that the hotels were in the
business to make money and be responsive
to the needs of their clientele. He
stated that the non-smoking areas in
hotels were increasing due to the volun-
tary actions of the establishments, and
in some cases exceeded the mandate in
the City's ordinance, i.e., such as
offering smoke free hotel rooms. He
stated that if the hotel rooms were unoc-
cupied during the night, not only would
the hotels lose money but the City would
also lose revenue.
He stated that the ordinance was restric-
tive to the hotel and restaurant industry
by telling them how to run their busi-
ness. He stated that the hotels and
restaurants should be able to offer their
clients what they wanted, whether that
was 53% or 90% non-smoking - without it
being set by ordinance.
Mr. Anthony Santori, Oliver's
Restaurant, stated that he had learned
about the ordinance, after its adoption,
from Mr. Ercoli. He stated that as a
restauranteur, he had always respected
both the City and his clients' needs and
wishes. He stated that he did not have
one client a month for dinner that
requested a table in a non-smoking area,
however, if they did it would be provided.
He stated that the restaurant seated 110
people, and 60% would be one entire room
to be closed off for non-smokers, while
the remainder of the restaurant was
filled with smokers. He stated that he
could provide part of the room for non-
smokers, which might be 10 or 12 per
week, but he could not provide 60% of his
restaurant. He stated that he was sure
that the City Council did not want him to
go out of business, however, this ordi-
nance was a step toward that end.
Mr. Joe Ercoli, Leaning Tower Restaurant,
stated that it seemed to be of some
importance that the restaurants were not

notified of the adoption of the ordi-
nance. He stated that what the hotels
and restaurants were asking for was
reasonable, some time and some input for
a rewrite of that portion of the ordi-
nance that all could live with and it
would be for the benefit of the City.
Mayor Addiego stated that at the last
meeting the Chamber of Commerce had
requested additional time before the
ordinance was adopted in order to contact
restaurants and other businesses in the
City. He questioned if the Council chose
to review the ordinance as requested.
Discussion followed: that the ordinance
would be in effect on 3/13/87; to process
an amendment to the existing ordinance in
reference to the percentage factor in
hotels and restaurants; not enforcing
that section of the ordinance until a
subcommittee was formed, had met with
concerned restauranteurs, and created an
amendment to the ordinance; that the 30
day clause in an ordinance was to allow
people to come forward and cite their
concerns before it was effective; writing
an amendment to the ordinance as an
urgency provision to take effect imme-
diately, etc.
Councilman Haffey apologized to the
audience for his harsh comments to Mr.
Pfaff and Mr. Strazzarino at the last
meeting, and admitted that he had apolo-
gized earlier to the gentlemen privately.
He stated that he was very proud of the
ordinance, and had heard from the com-
munity that it was one of the best ever
drafted for non-smoking, however, it
could be improved - and he would be
willing to work on a subcommittee to work
with the restaurants to see if it could
be accomplished.
Mayor Addiego stated that this should
start at the staff level with the propo-
nents of the ordinance, and remove the

City should get into the real estate
business.
Deputy City Manager/CD&A Lewis stated
that a land subsidy lien might be
considered if a project for moderate
income, first time home buyers was
accepted. He continued, the program
would allow the developer to buy the pro-
perty at somewhat less than the appraised
value with the difference being secured
by a second mortgage held by the City;
eventually, the City would receive its
full value of the property plus
interest.
Councilman Nicolopulos stated that the
Council had not had an opportunity to
properly discuss the ramifications of
such an agreement.
Councilman Halley stated that the action
was to be taken was an intention to
dispose of the property, and further
discussion would be held during the

the City did not have an ordinance to
control the consumption of alcoholic
beverages in the downtown area and in the
parking lots which leads to disorderly
conduct and has created negative impacts
in the downtown area. He stated that
the passage of the ordinance would give
the Police the tool to deal with the
visual effects of individuals loitering
in public areas such as sidewalks,
alleys, walkways, pedestrian malls, and
parking lots while consuming alcoholic
beverages. He stated that any
violation of the adopted ordinance would
be an infraction and a fine.

Deputy City Manager/City Engineer Yee
stated that the Council had discussed
having sewer capacity for Carter I and
II, as well as the Westborough Recreation
Building. He stated that the present
moratorium on new sewer connections in
Daly City had prevented the Water
District from granting connections in
part of So. San Francisco that it serves,
in that Daly City treats Westborough's
sewage.
He stated that Daly City, through its
North San Mateo County Sanitation
District, was willing to accept addi-
tional connections if this City accepted
the approximate equivalent in connections
from Daly City.
He stated that the two developments are
the only ones with applications for con-
nection pending, but that the added sewer
capacity that this supplement gave
Westborough would actually be available
on a first come, first serve basis. He
stated that Daly City would pay this City
connection fees and sewer service charges
for the King Drive area in the same
amount that we charge in our own city.
He recommended that the Council adopt the
Resolution authorizing the execution of
Supplement No. 6.
Mayor Addiego questioned if Daly City had
approved the agreement.
Mr. Mike Callan stated that he had
attended the meeting, and Daly City had
approved it subject to South San
Francisco's approval.
Vice Mayor Drago questioned: when the
moratorium was removed by the Sanitation
District, would the 170 units reconvert
back to it or would it remain in South
San Francisco.

ITEMS FROM STAFF
City Attorney Armento gave the following
report on district elections: "By
district" meant election of members of
the legislative body by voters of the
district alone; "From districts" meant
election of members of the legislative
body who are residents of the district
from which they are elected by the
voters of the entire City; that
district elections may be placed on the
ballot at a regular or special municipal
election; and describe the boundaries of
each district, number of districts;
state whether the members of the legisla-
tive body shall be elected by or from
districts; that the number of districts
may be five, seven or nine, etc.
Mr. A1 Waters stated that he was repre-
senting the Westborough Homeowners, as
well as members of the Westborough
Concerned Citizens and spoke in favor of
district elections. He stated that it
would make the elected official more
responsible to the needs of the district,
and lower the cost of running for office
- which he felt was prohibitive and pre-
vented many qualified people from running
for citywide office. He stated that he
also believed that it would improve voter
registration and voter turnout
He stated that the Westborough community
was multi-racial and a pluralistic
society, and district elections would
allow more of the community to par-
ticipate in the democratic pro~87

10. Discussion of District Elections.
ITEMS FROM STAFF
Councilman Nicolopulos questioned whether
Mr. Waters felt that the Council was not
responsive to Westborough.
Mr. Waters stated that he could cite
several incidents over the last twenty
years where his community had not had
input until after the fact, and it was
frustrating to try to correct a situation
after the fact. He stated that the
Planning Commission noticed public
hearings, however, the affected
homeowners groups were not made aware of
those hearings.
He spoke of the Westborough traffic
problems that were continuing to be com-
pounded by new development in the area,
which he felt would be dealt with through
district elections.
Councilman Nicolopulos responded to Mr.
Waters statement, that district elections
would bring a greater turnout, by citing
various election voter turnout statistics
in the Westborough area since 1970. Ne
stated that voter apathy was a problem
throughout the City, not just in
Westborough as evidenced by 1983 and 1985
election statistics.
He stated that for 25 years, as a police
officer, he had responded to calls in the
Westborough area, and that as a
Councilman he had personally visited
residents of the area in response to con-
cerns. He stated that Mr. Waters com-
ment that the Council was not responsive,
was an unfair statement in that the
Council served everyone in the City.
Councilman Haffey stated that his concern
with district elections in a city of this
size could be decisive. He stated that
district elections could pit one district
against the other, rather than the
Council working for the good of the City,
i.e., the improvement of City Hall, the
Westborou§h Recreation Building, etc.

ITEMS FROM STAFF
Vice Mayor Drago stated that if the City
was divided up by five districts, it
could put Westborough in more than one
district through overlapping. He stated
that the fire station in that area res-
ponded to Avalon and Buri Buri, and the
district could also be formed based upon
the area covered by the fire station.
He stated that he had no problem with a
ballot measure, but felt that it would
polarize the City. He continued, the
City would suffer because each district
would be acting for its own turf. He
stated that the redistricting could not
be done based on property taxes.
He stated that if it was on the ballot,
he would like to see a measure to elect
the Mayor.
He suggested designating Planning
Commission seats by district.
Mr. Waters thanked the Council for
listening to his proposal, and urged that
this be put on the ballot for the people
to decide.
Councilman Haffey stated that there was
an additional ballot method, that of the
initiative procedure from the citizens.
Mayor Addiego stated that he agreed with
Vice Mayor Drago that the tax method
would not work, because if the residen-
tial area was divided into districts it
would not be equitable because of the
industrial basis.
He stated that there was an additional
option, that of asking for an advisory
measure on district elections.
City Manager Birkelo stated that there
had been a request from All Souls 8th
grade class for inclusion in the Close Up
Program, wherein $25.00 was given to each
student for a trip to Washington.

Director of Planning Smith stated that
the Planning Commission had adopted a
Resolution on this matter in response to
a request from the neighborhood. She
stated that staff had written a letter
stating that this item was not in
compliance with this City's General Plan
when it was in our sphere of influence,
yet owned by the County.
Ms. Elaine Bill, 297 Alta Vista, stated
that two sides of this project touch on
South San Francisco, and that the plan
was being opposed by the homeowners
affected by the project in South San
Francisco.
She stated that the City had adopted
policies for Country Club with which this
use did not conform, and urged the
Council to enforce those policies.
She stated that there had been five
meetings with the County, the applicant
and the residents and a new plan had been
submitted at each meeting.
She spoke of the applicant's other home
for emotionally disturbed and sedated
older people in Petaluma, and that
through investigation of their license
with the State of California, the home
barely met the State's minimum standards.
She stated that the home allowed the
patients free rein to walk the neigh-
borhoods, Avalon, Ponderosa, Brentwood
and Country Club and that if the patient
injured himself on a street then the
homeowner or the City could be sued. She
stated that Country Club did not have
sidewalks or streets because the County
would not respond to the needs of the
residents, and that one of the patients

She presented statistics: on cities con-

1988, November 1988 elections; on the
costs and voter turnout for prior city

of the material presented is attached and
a permanent part of the record of this

She stated that when the Council had
deliberated in 1981 to consolidate with

election, San Diego had been discussed as
proving that in elections with a long

INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Date:
February 24, 1987
TO:
Honorable Mayor Addiego and City Council
SU BJ E CT:
Request for Consolidation of the School Districts with the
November General Election (Even Numbered Years)
FROM: City Clerk
Please be advised that in opposition to the above mentioned request I
addressed the Board of Supervisors at their meeting of today's date.
I presented the attached letter which cited the increased voter
turnout and lower costs for the South San Francisco Unified School
District as a result of the 1981 City consolidation with the District.
The Board of Supervisors approved the consolidation request for the
fifteen districts who had petitioned the board for approval - which
included the South San Francisco Unified School District.
I then questioned if Government Code 36503.5 allowed cities to again
request a different consolidation after one election had been held,
and was told by Supervisor Schumacher that the law was open and
without restriction for a city to again apply for consolidation.
I spoke to County Clerk Slocum later in the day, by telephone, and he
verified that the next School District election for those Districts
that had petitioned the consolidation would be in November, 1988.
For Council information, I submit the following schedule for City
elections in San Mateo County:
November, 1987
Belmont, Burlingame, Half Moon Bay, Portola Valley, San Carlos,
Brisbane, Foster City, Millbrae, San Bruno, San Mateo, South San
Francisco and Woodside.
April, 1988
Colma, Hillsborough, Redwood City and East Palo Alto.
November, 1988
Atherton, Daly City, Menlo Park and Pacifica.
Perhaps the Council would consider requesting consolidation with the
General Election in even numbered years to effect cost savings in the
future.

Re: School District's Request for Consolidation With the General Election
In reference to the above mentioned request I respectfully submit the
following statistics before and after the consolidation of South San
Francisco Municipal Elections with the School District Elections:
So. San Francisco Municipal Elections
Year % of Reg. Voters Casting Votes
1980 (Regular) 34.8%
1981 (Special) 34.6
1983 (Cons. with UDAL) 32.5

City Cost
$17,436.71
24,163.09

8,369.01
So. San Francisco Unified School District
Year % of Reg. Voters Casting Votes
1981 (Regular) 17.1%
1983 (Cons. with SSF) 29.6
1985 (Cons. with SSF) 33.0
Sch. Cost
$10,382.00
7,265.00
8,346.00
I believe it is apparent from the above figures that both the School District
and the City benefited in election costs from the prior consolidation, as
well as the School District having a greater percentage of voters voting.
