Resolution - Continued. does the lot meet City parking lot standards; the City cannot extend access on the temporary lot; handicapped spaces are on the temporary lot and once that goes away the City will move the two spaces to its lot; the same restrictions should be placed on City lots as those place on private lots; Mayor Drago stated, return just that portion to the Engineer and if he says that is the only way to go in the lot, then Council will accept it when it comes back; Councilman Yee stated there is no time re- straint and Boardmember Fernekes has a good point on the safety factor and we are going to spend this money for a three year period; how much money will the City generate in three years in revenue after expenses; the question is, should the City do it at any cost or is it the best financial deal for the City; the Agency does not know what the revenue is, so how can we know if it is a good investment; staff will bring it back at the next meeting with the infor- mation requested; Boardmember Mullin asked, how is the 12' dedication of right-of-way a concession by Mr. Giorgi; Parcel B becomes smaller by the 12' dedication and Parcel A becomes larger; Board- member Mullin asked if it was typical that one party pays all the transfer costs; it's a negotiable point; both sides are obtaining title insurance and cities do not pay for recording fees; how many parking spac- es are there in the existing lots; the right turn lane is going to be part of the construction now; etc. Consensus of Council - To continue the item to the next meeting.

Carried by unanimous voice vote. Clerk Battaya asked if Boardmember Penna was going to come to the podium. Counsel Mattas stated Boardmember Penna arrived during the Oiorgi property discussion, he had earlier informed him that he was going to abstain from that, as well as the item that is currently before you - Items 6 and 7. Clerk Battaya said to Boardmember Penna, it makes it easier for the minutes sir, if the Councilmember or Boardmember makes an appearance on the podi- um and cites that for the record -- it's a much clear- er picture. This way if he comes in and is at the back of the room - that is not a record for the min- utes sir. Counsel Mattas stated that was the purpose of his statement - to make it on the record. Clerk Battaya stated, but, she could have reported his coming in at 7:20 p.m. if he had just come to the podium and excused himself. Chairman Drago stated, if the Boardmember would have been on time he would not have that problem. 6.
