PRESENTATIONS Proclamation - Older Americans Month - May, 1988 Proclamation - Independent Living Month - May, 1988 Proclamation - Historic Preservation Week - May 8 - 14, 1988 Debate and discussion on Proposition 72 - Emergency Reserve, Dedication of ~1~ Certain Taxes to Transportation/ (Appropriation Limit Change) - suggested Resolution to be adopted in opposition entitled "A RESOLUTION OPPOSING PROPOSITION 72 THE "SPENDING LIMIT IMPROVEMENT AND ENFORCEMENT ACT" PRESENTATIONS Mayor Drago and Mr. Mario Gonzales had each student introduce themselves and they were presented with pins of the City. Councilman Nicolopulos read the Proclamation aloud and presented it to County Commissioner on Aging James Hamrick. County Commissioner Hamrick thanked the Council and proceeded to describe the various programs sponsored by San Mateo County. Vice Mayor Teglia read the Proclamation aloud and presented it to Mr. Eldon Luce from the Center for the Independence of the Disabled. Councilman Haffey read the Proclamation aloud and presented it to Historic Preservation Commissioner Gookin. Commissioner Gookin presented Ms. Margarite Schwartz whose home at 519 Grand Avenue was to be declared an historic resource. She stated that the home had been built in 1905, and pre- sented a plaque to Ms. Schwartz. Ms. Debbie Hamber stated that Council had taken a stand to support Proposition No. 71, and she urged the Council to oppose Proposition No. 72. She related the following: the League of California Cities opposed Proposition No. 72, while it supported Proposition No. 71; ARP, the Commission on Aging, League of Women Voters, the State Superintendent of Schools, California Highway Patrol and 120 statewide organizations were against Proposition No. 72; that Proposition No. 72 does not update the Gann spending limit, but instead made exceptions to the limit; it made transportation the top spending priority in the State; if the Proposition passes, it was estimated $200,000,000 to $300,000,000 would be 5/11/88 Page 2 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN PRESENTATIONS Proposition 72 Debate - Continued. PRESENTATIONS taken away from education, law enfor- cement, health care, senior programs and would be given to transportation, etc. She stated that money was needed for roads and transportation, but not at the expense of these vital services. She stated that the recent budget short- fall was $1,000,000,000 and Proposition 72 would take a bad situation and make it a nightmare. She stated that in addition to the shortfall, $200,000,000 a year would be taken away from vital ser- vices. She urged the Council to take a position in opposition to Proposition 72. Mayor Drago questioned what would happen if both Propositions passed - which would take precedence. Ms. Hamber stated that those provisions that are not in conflict would go through. Mayor Drago stated that he felt it was excellent to give people the opportunity to discuss the propositions before the public pro and con, however, he did not believe the City Council should take votes on County, State or Federal measures unless they directly affect the well being of this City. He stated that he voted in support of Proposition 71 because of those organizations that are supporting it which included ARP, Aging, Highway Patrol, Fire Chiefs, etc. He stated that he did not believe it was confident at this time to vote against Proposition 72. Ms. Hamber stated that many transit districts have supported Proposition 71 and gone against Proposition 72, because Gann says the gasoline tax is going to go to transportation - statewide money, so that the money now being received for local transit districts will no longer be received locally. She continued, 5/11/88 Page 3 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN --- PRESENTATIONS Proposition 72 Debate - Continued. PRESENTATIONS Proposition No. 72 does nothing for local government and would severely impact local transit districts, local government in terms of schools, and law enforcement. Mayor Drago stated that this was like the Coastal Initiative A and B, and Proposition 72 was confusing to him. He stated that Proposition 72 affected the residents of the City but not the City operation, as it was a separate entity of its own. He stated that he did not believe the School District or the City was in any danger of exceeding the Gann limit right now, and therefore he did not see how it pertained to this City. He stated that there was reserve money that went back to the taxpayers in 1987, so that money rather than being returned to the taxpayers would have been used for transportation with the passage of Proposition 72. Ms. Hamber stated that those funds would go into an emergency reserve to be used for transportation rather than having various funds earmarked for schools, senior programs, etc. Councilman Halley stated that he shared the Mayor's concern on not having items come before this Council that do not relate to City business or its operation, or to the community. He continued, however, in relation to a no on Proposition 72, he believes that if it passes it would affect the School District directly and would affect the City. He stated that he had attended a subcommittee meeting with the School District and Councilman Nicolopulos and if education is to be put behind transportation, as Proposition 72 is pro- posing, the Council would see the School District changing some of its priorities - and might come to the City wishing to renegotiate some of the agreements in which currently they provide support for various facilities throughout the City. 5/11/88 Page 4 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN ~-- PRESENTATIONS Proposition 72 Debate - Continued. PRESENTATIONS Mayor Drago questioned if anyone wished to speak in support of Proposition 72. Mr. Michael Siebert, CA State Automobile Assn., stated that his firm was a motor club with over 2.8 million members, and strongly supported Proposition 72. He cited reasons for the support and why it was essential to California's transpor- tation future: that California has tra- ditionally relied on user based fees, such as gas tax and weight fees to fund transportation needs for over fifty years; rising fuel prices and a switch in fuel efficient vehicles produced a decline in fuel consumption; that at the same time high inflation produced a dra- matic increase in road building costs; motorists today pay less in fuel taxes for miles traveled than they did a decade or more ago; transportation needs have increased, and the funding has decreased dramatically; Proposition 72 dedicates sales tax on gasoline and diesel fuel to the building and maintenance of highways, roads and mass transit, and says that the Gann Initiative will not apply to those fees; does not decrease the overall spending authority under the Gann limit - those revenues could be replaced either from the surplus or from additional taxes which might be raised to fund other projects. He stated that unless the gas tax was increased or a new revenue source was found for transportation, we are in serious danger of our transportation system falling so far behind, for example if the repair of a road or highway was delayed beyond the point it could be rehabilitated, you are looking at a cost that could be four times the original price to rebuild that road. He stated that there were a lot of misconceptions on how Proposition 72 would relate to local government, and it would not take funds away that are 5/11/88 Page 5 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN .... PRESENTATIONS Proposition 72 Debate - Continued. (Cassette No. 2) PRESENTATIONS designated for local government through the transportation process. He con- tinued, it is designed so that the 11/4% that goes to local government is not affected, and only affects the 4 3/4% state share of the sales tax on gasoline. He stated that if Proposition 72 passes the sales tax on gasoline is dedicated to transportation purposes under Article 19, and half of those funds would be available to local government for funding of streets and roads, etc. He stated that our economy was based upon our ability to move people and goods, and the economy suffers as a result of our transportation system, as well as the entire tax base suffering. He strongly urged the Council to support Proposition 72. Discussion followed: distribution of gasoline tax funds; the impact on trans- portation of the $600,000,000 through Proposition 72; that Proposition 71 did not dedicate any new funds to transpor- tation; the formula used in Sacramento to distribute transportation funds; that Proposition 71 would not raise taxes, etc. Mr. Jake Jones, 12 E1Campo Dr., stated that he was very disappointed in Council support of Proposition 71, and felt the Council should not support either Proposition. He stated that in 1979, Proposition 4 had passed by 74.3% of the voting population, and that proved that the people did not want the lid lifted off spending - there has to be a ceiling. He stated that he had read the ballot pamphlet about five times, and the only sense it had made was in the analyst's analysis. He stated that this last year there was a State employee on the Board of Equalization, who retired at $190,000 a year - guaranteed. He stated that this 5/11/88 Page 6 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN · ' PRESENTATIONS Proposition 72 Debate - Continued. Further discussion and debate on Proposition 71 (Appropriations Limit Adjustment. ~l~ AGENDA REVIEW City Manager Lewis requested: PRESENTATIONS was a pointed example of government spending. He stated that he spoke to a Councilman after a Resolution was passed in support of Proposition 71 questioning the rational of the vote, and was told that it was because ARP supported it. He stated that as a member of ARP he had the main issue of their magazine, and there was not one mention of supporting Proposition 71. He stated that only an individual member in a Park and Recreation senior communication had endorsed Proposition 71, and not the national association. He stated that he had spoken to the ARP member who had said that as a retired school employee Proposition 71 would build up the pension fund, and retired she only made $25,000 per year. He urged the Council to rescind their support of Proposition 71, and leave the issues up to the voters. M/S Haffey/Teglia - To adopt the Resolution opposing Proposition 72. RESOLUTION NO. 55-88 Carried by majority roll call vote, Drago abstained on the principle of taking sides on propositions, and he personally could not support Proposition 72. Mayor Drago stated that there were propo- sitions on contributions and campaign contributions that he would like to see the Council take an action on, but he did not feel that was proper. He stated that the Park and Revenue Bonds Proposition was a measure that directly affected the City by $180,000, and that was the type of information he would like to pass on to the public - but not for a Council vote.

She stated that anyone who works or lives in South San Francisco is eligible to benefit from the blood that is collected, and to date there was over 2,400 pints of blood from the inception of the program. COMMUNITY FORUM Vice Mayor Teglia stated that a woman and her daughter came to City Hall to commend two City workers for saving their home and maybe their lives. She stated that City employees Paul Fernandez and Ted Lynn were working on Tennis Dr. and noticed smoke coming from the backyard of one of the homes, they looked over the fence and saw the back wall was on fire; while one called the Fire Dept. the other ran around the front and knocked on the door alerting the residents; and the Fire Dept. was able to control the fire.

Staff Report - Continued. RECREATION & COMMUNITY SERVICES the Council chose to carry it over and still be within the time frame of the City making application to the Federal Government by the 31st of May. She stated that the staff report inclu- ded: statement of objectives of the use of the funds; the Federal application; summary of two proposed options for expenditures; Community Development Plan for 1988-89; report on carryover funds from the current fiscal year; accumula- tive report on performance; and copies of proposals of the non-profit agencies. Councilman Halley requested an explana- tion of the difference between Option 1 and Option 2. Acting Director of Recreation & Community Services Goodrich stated that staff took the conservative approach with the limited funds, and suggested Council fund everything at the same level as last year with the exception of the day care program, which would receive the left over $2,200 which was Option 1. She stated that Option 2 was different in response to Council feedback received to date by the interest in the Project Reach proposal, and the request to shave money allocated to other agencies to fund Project Reach for beginning services, etc. Vice Mayor Teglia stated that last year Project Reach had not submitted a request for funds, but they had been funded the year before. She stated that she did not know that the City was in a position to do an expansion at this time, rather to continue the services established. Councilman Nicolopulos questioned how many South San Francisco residents were served by the program, and whether it included those participating in the Special Olympics. 5/11/88 Page 11 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN RECREATION & COMMUNITY SERVICES 6. Staff Report - Continued. RECREATION & COMMUNITY SERVICES Ms. Shirley Moore, Project Reach, stated that there were currently 15 families out of the 75 in the program that were from South San Francisco, and some could be involved in the Special Olympics. She stated that she was not interested in taking from money other agencies as funding, because all the services were vital to the community. She stated that the new program would teach recreation people to do the program's work, and that the initial request had been for $26,000 to provide that training. She continued, the second request for $12,000 would continue the existing programs and she would solicit grant funds for the remainder. She stated that some cities used General Fund monies to fund public agencies. Vice Mayor Teglia stated that the $5,200 should go to current services if funded, not to new services, and that $68,700 was all that the Council could expend on all agencies. Acting Director of Recreation & Community Services Goodrich stated that the Council could only expend 15% of the CDBG funds for public services. Councilman Halley stated that he appreciated Ms. Moore not wanting to take funds away from other agencies, and he would personally support Option 2. He stated that he did not like money being expended from the General Fund for agen- cies. He stated that he was on the Board of the Boys Clubs, and knew that the organization had a healthy budget. Vice Mayor Teglia stated that the Council was under budget constraints, and she was interested in creative funding if any of the agencies had such input. Mr. Elton Luce, C.I.D., stated that the recommendation by staff was to cut their 5/11/88 Page 12 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN RECREATION & COMMUNITY SERVICES 6. Staff Report - Continued.

Acting Director of Recreation & Community Services stated that the funds would be reviewed at the end of the fiscal year and if money was available it could be given to C.I.D. Ms. Connie Mitchell, Friends to Parents, stated that she was very thankful for the years of Council support, and requested Council support legislation on child care facilities which were becoming scarce. Ms. Jolly Perkocka, Director of Home Sharing Program and Informational Center, stated that the program allowed shared housing for people needing a place to live at an affordable price. She stated that some cities used redevelopment agency set aside funds for low and moderate income housing to fund this program. Councilman Haffey stated that there was one more meeting to find out about the redevelopment funds being used, and suggested staff investigate the matter. Mayor Drago closed the Public Hearing. Consensus of Council - To continue the item to the next meeting. Mayor Drago declared a recess at 9:40 p.m. Mayor Drago recalled the meeting to order at 9:59 p.m., all Council present.

Councilman Haffey stated that in the General Plan Policies the Council had wanted to control the use of private driveways, and he had a problem with com- mon roads. Director of Planning Smith stated that Stonegate and Blonden Way had private driveways to accommodate the steep slopes. Councilman Nicolopulos questioned the amount of in-lieu park fees for this project. Director of Planning Smith stated that the in-lieu park fees were $108,000.

Mr. Cris Craiker, Architect, stated that five different floor plans had been created to accommodate the conditions, and that the architecture would be Victorian Queen Anne, with trellis and lattice work; single family detached, etc. Vice Mayor Teglia questioned whose idea it was to have the stairway dedicated to the City. Director of Planning Smith stated that she assumed that no one had made it a requirement, however, it was an access to a park. Councilman Halley questioned why it was a pedestrian walkway when the homeowners would have to maintain the landscaping - they should also maintain the stairway. Mr. Jacobi stated that he would rather sit down with the City Attorney to fully discuss the question of liability being passed on to the homeowners. Mr. Lee Overcraft, Project Manager, stated that it had been dedicated as a right of way on the maps, however, he did not know if it had been accepted by the City.

Councilman Halley stated that this Developer had a place in Stonegate that he had sold and the approved conditions go with the land, yet the new owner is balking -- concerned that the same thing could happen with this project. City Attorney Armento stated that she had been approached by the new owner, and had told him that the conditions go with the land and are the owner's responsibility. Discussion followed: costs for stairway and landscape maintenance; that this would be in the homeowners budget; that a policy should be established for future projects that there will be no more pri- vate streets or have the Developer come forward with a request for a variance; problems with private streets; standards of construction for streets; was there sufficient funds set aside to maintain the streets; who would enforce parking requirements; market price for was $230,000-$240,000 for a single-family unit, etc. Mr. Briz Kansal, Boardmember Westborough Way Homeowners Assn., cited the eight concerns of the Association letter (a copy is attached and a permanent part of the record of this meeting).

Mayor Drago stated that in-lieu park fees from projects were used throughout the City for capital improvements. Councilman Halley stated that in the past Westborough residents had been neglected, however, in recent years major projects had been completed in the area: Sellick Park, and Westborough Community Center. Ms. Kay Wilson stated that she was an adjoining property owner north of the pedestrian way, and had worked with this Developer on the project. She urged the Council to retain a flexible attitude on the private streets issue because it was a unique site, and she had been pro- ceeding on her project based on general staff endorsement of the private streets. Police Chief Datzman stated that narrow streets did cause problems for the public, and requested a clear policy be set by the Council. Mayor Drago stated that the Fire Marshall's report indicated that the access shown was acceptable, and that no objections had been stated by the Police Department in their report. Mr. Robert Gilmore, Business Manager San Mateo Trades Union, stated that he was happy that Mr. Jacobi had approved the prevaling wage condition, and not happy that the last project had been sold with the new owner not liking the condition. Vice Mayor Teglia stated that a lot of junk had been constructed in the past, in pocket sized projects, that were not good contributions to this City. 5/11/88 Page 17 AGENDA ACTION TAKEN ......
