items of mutual concern.
Library Board Chairman Evans thanked the

related that the Board was very thrilled
about that progress in the last five
years.
Library Boardmember Pierson stated that
this was her fifth term as a Boardmember,
and had served two terms on the Systems

tunity to listen to people representing
other cities on the Peninsula. She com-
mended the Council on their support and
understanding of the library.

last five years: circulation had
increased 40%; per capita circulation had

tated purchase of additional terminals,
and this would be addressed at a future
meeting wi th Council to allow the catalog
to go on-line; that the adult
literacy, Project Read, was known state-
wide; various new materials and ser-
vices had been added; that the Grand
Avenue building had been remodeled
without changing the exterior of the
Carnegie Library.
Library Board Chairman Evans stated that
staff and the Board had spent the last
five months studying material furnished
by the American Library Association, with
the purpose of evolving a planning pro-
cess to assist in setting priorities
using available resources. She stated
that Boardmember Flickinger was on the
Subcommittee with staff to look at City
facilities and to determine how they were
being used. She stated that the Board
would keep the Council informed of the
planning process.
Vice Mayor Teglia arrived at the meeting
at 6:20 p.m.
Library Boardmember Miller stated that
the Board was concerned over the number
of part time positions, and how much it
was costing the library for adminis-
tration vs. full time equivalent costs.
Councilman Addiego questioned how the
salary information was developed and what
i t meant.
City Librarian Goodrich stated that
Boardmember Flickinger had supplied her
with the analytical tool. She stated the
following: if el even people were doing
the work of eleven full time people, then
that was a one to one ratio or 100%; if
it was part time, there were 31 people
doing the work of 11.79 full time people
then it was 263%. She stated that 21% of
her workforce was full time, and 79% was
part time, and she would like to see that
ratio over a period of time change.

She spoke in detail of the time spent:
in recruiting, hiring, time sheets,
orientation, training, supervision, and
performance evaluation of part time
employees.
Discussion followed: the number of pro-
fessional or para professional positions;
the turnover; how like organizations in
the County handled the part time
situation; why this method was chosen,
rather than another to run the libraries;
that the Council had not given budget
monies for more full time people; that
one full time person had been added this
year; that the Council had believed that
part time people were a necessity in the
library; that the payroll was 65% of the
budget, and the Librarian had a free hand
to use those funds; that the Librarian
could not convert 40 hours of part time
into 40 hours of full time, because it
would cost 40% more; that the Librarian
should address this issue in the next
budget session; that the planning process
should look at other communities of like
sizes, in terms of how they provide
library services to the community; that
the City ranked 5th in the State; that
the City had had lean years and had still
tried to augment the services to the com-
munity; Geau automated system needed more
terminals; that the Board should present
cost benefits for the terminals at a
Council study session; educational pro-
cess for the public to use the terminals;
that some people did not like to use
automated devices; that grant funds were
not available for the purchase of ter-

He thanked the Council for their support
and cooperation, and announced that Carol
Feuerstein was the Acting Executive
Director of the Chamber.
Mr. James Elmore, 1021 Airport Blvd.,
questioned if the Council had an answer
to the query he had posed at the last
meeting.
Mayor Drago stated that the Chief
Building Inspector had responded to the
question in a memo on the legality of the
improvements to a piece of property at
600 Baden Ave. He stated that the
address given by Mr. Elmore was in error,
and happened to be the parking lot of the
Magnolia Senior Center. He stated that
it had to be the building at 503 Baden,
because it was the only one with
construction on the site.
He stated that in February a permit had
been issued to rehabilitate an older
residence, and in July they had applied
for another building permit for an
enclosed front porch. He stated that it
had been duly plan checked, and was
approved by the Planning Commission on
7/12/88. He stated that it was reported
that there is not a front set back as
required in a C-C Zoned District, and it
complies with the Building Code because
there is no requirement for setbacks,
fire protection of openings on Baden
Avenue side of the building. He stated
that there was obviously no fire spread
problem across Baden, so the building in
question does meet the City Codes.
Mr. Elmore stated that this was
questionable and an inconsistency of the
Code. He related a similar incident in
1972 wherein he had to cut back a room, a

wall, and had applied for a buildin§ per-
mit for an addition to a business commer-
cial property. He stated that the
following was required by the City:
a roof parapet; fire walls; and fire
proofi n§.
He questioned that the steps did not
have to be fire proofed on commercial
property, and felt that this was
inconsistent and he was being asked to go
beyond what was required for other prop-
erties.
Mayor Drago reiterated that the memo
stated that there were requirements for
set backs, protection of openings on
the Baden Avenue front side of the
building, and there obviously was no fire
spread problem on Baden Avenue.
Mr. Elmore stated that he had been
required on a residential property to
effect fire protection of a deck, cut a
roof back, etc. He stated that with his
commercial property on Butler he had been
rquired to put in a parapet wall and fire
protection.
Discussion followed: that the memo would
be given to Mr. Elmore and he could take
it up with the Chief Building Inspector;
that changes to residential property were
different than changes to commercial pro-
perty in the permit process; that the
property had added on a porch rather than
a room; that there was an appeal process
before an Appeal Board for Mr. Elmore; if
Mr. Elmore was not satisfied with the
appeal process, he could go to Court to
remedy the situation.
Mr. Elmore stated that he had applied
for a use permit and special conditions
had been applied, which he had agreed to
with his signature - now, other con-
ditions were being added that he had
not agreed to, and questioned if this was
right.

that no benefits or privileges of

concern that there would be resultant
costs or benefits; that this document was
only meant to put consistency in the

lations would come into the process and
needed to be adhered to; that Council had

RESOLUTION NO. 137-88
Mayor Drago questioned why the defini-
tions were changed from the original
definitions submitted to the Council from
the Personnel Board. He stated that
where it dealt wi th employees hi red,
there was a sentence left out: "hired
from a certi fi ed el i gi bi 1 i ty 1 i st."
City Manager Armas stated that there were
two concepts: 1) was the process one
uses to select employees; 2) the process
before the Council only addressed the
definitions. He stated that there would
be another opportunity under a separate
item for the Council to consider how it
treats employees with respect to how they
are hired. He stated that there was a
whole process that centered on recogni-
tion of employees that wanted to be
represented, and then negotiations bet-
ween the City and that representative's
agent, which would unfold over the next
few months.
Carried by unanimous voice vote.

Director of Planning Smith stated that
this had been approved in 1985, and the
change being made to better address
today's market. She stated that the
revised map would change the one, two,
and three-bedroom units to two-bedroom
units with different floor plans which
requires a revised subdivision map. She
continued, the one-year extension of the
subdivision map had been applied for
within the timeframe permitted, and the
recommendation was for approval of the
requests.

be clarified in the DCC&Rs; that they
intended to build their office on the 4th
floor for a real estate, rental, and for
management sales, and for the items they

they intended to hold them.
He stated that the organization was
called Carter Park Associates, and was
comprised of himself and family, and he
would have 50% of it; and Robert Chi nn
and his family would have the other 50%.
He stated that they intended to build it
as a condominium, probably to rent out,
and hold it and keep it for a number of
years.
He stated that they had originally talked
to the planners in regard to a meeting
room down at the swimming pool but when
the architect and landscape people
started to modify the plans and fine tune
the project they decided that the meeting
room didn't belong there and decided to
put it on the fourth floor which would
have an ocean view. He stated that he
had agreed to enlarge the meeting room,
and incorporate it for the Homeowners
Association with some rules and regula-
tions in the DCC&Rs as to when they could
and could not use the room. He stated
that there would be no change to the
homeowners, other than a cleaning charge
for a riot or something like that.

that the revisions to the project had been

Commission, and that the General Plan and
Zoning density limitations do allow 85

Mr. Ted Tronoff, Civil Engineer,
clarified the parking for Carter Park I
and II, which had been questioned by
Planning Commissioner Terry: that Mr.
Callan would make regular size guest
parking spaces.
Director of Planning Smith stated that
staff would correct the size of the spa-
ces in the documents in that Mr. Callan
had agreed on the size of the spaces.
M/S Addiego/Teglia - To approve the
revised Tentative Subdivision Map for
Carter Park II subject to the findings

Director of Planning Smith stated that
Council had approved the PUD and
Subdivision Map for the Planned Unit
Development Permit and and the Tentative
Subdivision Map for the Project. She
stated that since that time grading had
taken place on the site with the
beginning of construction, but nothing
more had been done in order to incor-
porate this with the development to the
north end, Item No. 15 on this agenda.
She explained that the new roadway would
be one circular roadway that would serve
both developments and necessitated some
changes to the lots, and the 121~' ingress
and egress easement was being eliminated
and instead being tied in with the new
development.

Vice Mayor Teglia stated that there were
some residents in that area - back when
the original subdivision map was
approved - that there were some con-
ditions off the site that had to do with
some property that was below grade, and
to make sure that was protected. She
stated that she believed it had been Mr.

Director of Planning Smith stated that it

item, as well as the other one on the
agenda.
Director of Planning Smith stated that
this was approved in January, and sub-

Carried by unanimous voice vote.
M/S Haffey/Addiego - To add the special
condition on prevailing wage.
Carried by unanimous voice vote.
Mayor Drago opened the Public Hearing.
Director of Planning Smith stated that
the parking would be five spaces per
unit, and the joint street would serve
both subdivisions - Alden and the
Standard Subdivisions.
She stated that the Applicant had made
three requests at the Planning Commission
meeting: to not landscape the front and
street yard as required - which was not
approved; eliminate the special condition
dealing with the prevailing wage - which
was not granted; that the engineering
requirement for the street brace not
exceed 10% - this the City was amenable
to. She stated that the Applicant
requested that the following language be
added to the prevailing wage condition:
"The Developer shall be deemed in
compliance with this condition if the
performance of the construction work is
to be done by subcontractors who are or
will be signatory to collective
bargaining agreements covering the
construction work to be performed by it
between building and construction craft
unions affiliated with the AFL-CIO and
contractors doing business in San Mateo
County."
Mr. Yip Jones, President Alden Company,
related the following in support of his
requests: that in the event that his
Company did not do the landscaping, they
would put up cash or have a subcontractor
do the work; that the work on the
drainage basin was of benefit to other

projects, and there should be language in
the agreement for a reimbursement; that
the landscaping was better served if it
was done by the buyer, and it should be
noted that there was no mention of
landscaping in the bid package.
Councilman Addiego stated that there had
been a nice project in Avalon ten years
ago that had not required landscaping,
and today in many cases the landscaping
still had not been done by individual
homeowners.
Director of Planning Smith stated that
after investigation by the City Attorney
it was determined that the only security
the City had was to require the
landscaping be done by the developer or
to accept cash in-lieu rather than a bond
which was somewhat cumbersome.
Vice Mayor Teglia returned to the podium
at 9:26 p.m.
Vice Mayor Teglia suggested that the
Developer allow the buyer to customize
the landscaping, and that she would vote
against the project if the landscaping
requirement was deleted.
Councilman Haffey stated that landscaping
had been required in all other
developments.
Councilman Nicolopulos suggested that the
Developer work with the home buyers who
wanted to put in their own landscaping.
Councilman Addiego stated that the City
had given approval for a hotel to be
built on the other side of town, and the
Developer had used people and materials
from out of state which had not been a
benefit for local union people.
Councilman Haffey questioned reimbur-
sement of the work on the storm drains.

ITEMS FROM COUNCIL
City Manager Armas stated that staff did
collect some data, and had identified
some options. He stated that he had met
with staff to evaluate the data, but felt
it was important to allow the residents
in that subdivision an opportunity to
speak to those options before a formal
recommendation was given to Council. He
stated that any changes that might occur
on Myrtle would affect Mayfair and the
cross streets between those two major
streets. He stated that a notice would
be sent to all of the residents for a
meeting to occur in early December.
Councilman Addiego stated that the origi-
nal traffic flow of each section of
Mayfair should be considered before a
meeting was held with the residents.
Mayor Drago expressed concern in pitting
one section of Mayfair against another.
He questioned if staff had looked at
directing traffic away from Mayfair
Village, and utilize No. Canal more than
it was currently being used.
City Manager Armas stated that would not
facilitate the kind of cross traffic that
Mayfair was making reference to, but it
was a long term consideration.
