Ms. Sandra Bolds, 321Southcliff Ave., stated that she was here to address the subject of the Bicentennial/Constitution observance, and the City applying for bicentennial designation as had other peninsula cities. She stated that she also wanted to know if the City had any plans for activities to inaugerate the celebration on 9/16 and 9/17/87, and described the various plans. Discussion followed: that the School District was going to ring bells for 200 seconds; to plant a tree for the bicen- tennial; a request for a calendar of events on the peninsula, etc. Mr. Lou Dell'Angela, 460 Gardenside Ave., stated concern over the belief that the County and City were in discussions on the Chestnut and Grand property. He stated that the residents were concerned that there might be a density in excess of the General Plan. He stated that it was known that there was a long history established of ten units per acre, and the County proposal would be well in excess of that figure. Mayor Addiego stated that the County did have some interest in the property, but not at the current density level. He stated that the County had not made a formal proposal to the City, however, 8/12/87 Page 2 --ORAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMUNITY FORUM CONSENT CALENDAR Minutes of the Adjourned Regular Meeting of 6/16/87, and the Regular Meeting of 6/24/87. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS there was another project a few blocks away which he believed had a variance for density. Councilman Haffey stated that it was pre- mature to discuss the type of develop- ment, in that his understanding was that the current density stands as is. Mr. Dell'Angela stated that his other concern was the condition of the railroad tracks on Oyster Point Blvd. He stated that going across the tracks really jarred a vehicle, and in addition it was a safety problem. He stated that he understood that an overpass would be built in the future, however, something had to be done with the tracks now. He requested that Council direct Staff to look into the matter. Councilwoman Teglia stated that if Council was of the opinion that the den- sity will remain as is on Chestnut and Grand, then the Staff should contact the County in the event they have plans that are dependent on a change in density. Mayor Addiego stated that the County had not submitted any plans, and when they did he wanted to see them. Councilman Halley stated that the County understood the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance, and could make applica- tion if they desired. He stated that to close out their option was inappropriate. COMMUNITY FORUM No one chose to speak.

Mayor Addie§o stated that the Council knew the projected savings to the City from this action. Mr. Del l'Angela stated that for a require- ment of only three years of City exper- ience it was a very good salary. He stated that position had existed in 1984, and questioned who was second in command when the City Manager was not present. Councilman Haffey stated that the posi- tion was Assistant to the City Manager. Mayor Addiego stated that when the Manager was away the Assistant to the City Manager would not be in charge. Mr. Dell'Angela stated that perhaps a better way of handling the situation would be to reinstitute the department head positions. He stated that this would fix responsibility, such as commun- ity development being put back into planning - where it belonged. Mayor Addiego stated that an organiza- tional chart was important, however, more important was to recognize the talents and fit them into the organization. He stated that that was why he encouraged the Manager to proceed and build around the people he has in the new plan. M/S Haffey/Teglia - To adopt the Resolution.
