The meeting was called to order at 3:45 P. m. by Mayor Cortesi. Present:~ Councilmen John Noonan, Adolph Sani, Emilio Cortesi, ~oseph Bracco, Telford Smith Absent: None Mayor Cortesi asked if there were any c~=amnications. City Clerk Rodondi read cca~unications a~ received frc~Carroll Bucher and L. V. West concerning the annexation of the Buri Buri territo~ Upon the reading Councilman Noonan stated that he agreed withMr. Bucher regarding the remainir~ away from public office and having less headaches. He r~-marked that he had looked over the tax rate for tb~ past ten years and by expansion we have lost rather than gained. He also stated that there has been an increase of tax rate even though a higher assessment. Therefore this is the reason for this program of subdividers buying into the city. He said that it w~s not the intent to impose a hardship to the subdivider or any undue burden. He remarked that of the ideas submitted that of the City Manager was the most useful. This was to set off against the cost those things that have capital asset value to the city. Councilman Noonan then moved that the total derived from the buying in formula be diminished by certain sums represented by cap- ital asset values given to the city byBarrett & Hilp. At this point, Councilman Smith suggest~ that the first motion should be the adoption of a policy. Councilman Noonan then changed his motion to read that it shall be the policy of the City of South San Francisco to establish a certain sum as the cost of admitting annexed territory to the City of South San Francisco and said sum shallbe determimed by reference to the suggested formula of the City Manager and City Attorney as contained in that letter dated July 29, 1953 addressed to the Honorable Board of Councilmen and signed by the City Manager amd the attachment t_~hereto entitled, "Established Value of City Owned Buildings and Equipment," c~by City Manager McClung, that said for- mu_la shall be subject to revision in accordance with changes of value of lots in the city. Councilman Bracco stated he was not in agreement with Councilman Noonan stating he would vote no as this was a problem which should be discussed as a group and not as it was presented in the form of a motion. Councilman Sani stated that his original motion wm~ to have certain stipulations clarified such as the playgrouz~, the 12Mile Creek and other matters. Ne remarked that he was glad to see the development of the land but required time in which to study this matter. Other business he said prevented him from attending the prior meetings held on this matter. Councilman Noonan stated that in view of the discussion, no action would be taken on the policy motion. City Manager McClung stated that all matters that were discussed today were discussed at last weeks meeting. If the council desired, he stated he would obtain a blackboard and go thru the points a step at a time. Mayor Cortesi stated that his thoughts in the matter would be to adjourn this meeting to next week. Councilman Smith remarked that Councilman Noonan's motion was that- it was subject to revision and that there should be reasons for the adoption of a formula. He further remarked that if there were no fees to be charged then we have no problem. The motion was made, he said, to have a starting point on which to have a basis to work from. Mayor Cortesi asked to have the Barrett & Hilp mat*~r adjusted first and then take these problems later. Councilman Smith remarked that we have a-basis on which to act on a policy fulfillment first and on that basis seconded the motion as made by Councilman Noonan. Councilman Bracco said he would li~e to a~Journ now so that the problem coul~ be discussed among the members of the council this afternoon and acted on tonight. Councilman Noonan stated that if it was found that due to the increased assessment value the city were making money, a lower tax rate should be realized. He further stated that in budget sessions it was found capital outlays of subdividers were borne by the city. A method he said should be found so that this added cost would not have to be borne by the city. He also stated that we have dec- lared a policy that the developer carry a part of the cost. He requested the city's adoption of this plan tonight. Councilman Sani requested that the matter be continued for one more week in which to study it further. At this point, Mr. Barrett spoke on the court litigation that had ts-ken place in the Buri Buri matter and of the fact that the park property should have beton given to the city shortly after the termination of court proceedings. He stated however that this property had been given to the city along with agreeing to the relocating of the lights and the street continuance for West Orange Avenue. He said that the unfortunate problem approached when they were coming in as a small annexation. He also stated that annexation should be given them today with no strings attached. He further remarked that during the ,e~f few months then the formula should be app- roached. It may be found that the formula adopted t(~ay will be found unfair later. He stated that they do not wish unfair cumpetition with other business. Councilman Smith stated that there .was a motion and second before the house. Roll call vote was requested which was as follows: Ayes, Councilmen Noonan and Smith; Noes, Councilmen Bracco, Sani and Cortesi. Councilman Sani remarked that he would vote again later when he had time to study the matter. Councilman Bracco suggested a meeting this afternoon and later vote on the matter tonight at the regular meeting. At this point, Mr. Chris McKeon spoke regarding previous discussions held with the former City Manager and City Attorney when he was subdividing, relative to an agreement made at that on a policy to be adopted. The former city council at that time, he remarked, had agreed with the subdividers that the bonded indebtness would be assumed as a subdividers charge. Councilman Smith stated he would not be influenced by past council members action but what he stands for and what this council stands for today. Mr. McKeon rem~ked that when an agreement had been entered into by the city and the subdivider the city is morally bound by this agreement. He further stated that no b~rdship should be work- ed on a competitor of his. At this point, Councilman Smith remarked that possibly past agreements should be produced for use in f~mre agreements. He further stated however that he would deny any responsibility for past agre~ments. ~07.~ RESOLUTION NO. 1915 BI;RI BURI PLAYGROU~D DEED: APPROVED: Councilm~n Sani remarked on the statements of Mr. McKeon stating that a meeting was held at tl time with the building trades during the time of the discussion relative to the adoption of tl zoning ordinance. At that time subdividers were to pay for facilities such as trees, hydrant: etc. They were also to assume the bonded indebtness and also pay $50.00 per lot. He concurs, with Councilman Smith that it did not bind future plans. Councilman Bracco moved that annexa' be grante~ .to Mr. Barrett on his proposal to pay $50.00 per lot and develop the Burl Buri pla; ground. Mr. Barrett stated that he would be willing to pay what other developers paid. Couu, man Noonan requested that the matter be disposed of today. Mr. Barrett stated that he did uo~ recall stating at the last meeting that he was willing to pay .$50.00 per lot. He was iuforme( that t~e bonded indebtuess was approximately $50.00.

It was stated that by taking this step everyone con- cerned would be given the same priviledge. Mayor Cortesi requested that the matter be laid over. The matter of the ordinance governing the parking of motor trucks on portions of streets in business districts was then discussed. Councilman Noonan stated he questioned the wisdom of the ordinance, suggesting possibly spaces Could be provided on the streets to cause parallel parking rather than angle parking where they would be Jutting out into the street. Mayor Cor- tesi stated that in some of the business houses in the business area provisions were not made for the loading and unloading of merchandise in the rear. City Attorney Lyons stated 1 ORDINANCE REGARDING SOLICITORS, PEDDLERS, HAWKERS, ETC. HAMLIN PROPERTY REZONING: SAN BRUNO ROAD REALIGn: BERRY REQUEST FOR ROAD: ~-/~. RESOIAPTION. NO. 19lq AWARDING CONTRACT SECOND LANE IMP: ~ 3 DATE FOR ZONING HEARINGS: that the ordinance allows deliveries to the front of the business houses prior to lO:3O a. m. but that under the ordinance it prohibits parking ou the mentioned streets between 10:30 a.m. and 6:00 p. m. of the same day. Councilman Noonau suggested that the matter be held up and a co~nuuication addressed to the merchants with request as to what they would desire in the matter, obtaining their thoughts with regard to parallel parking iu the blocks. Also, getting their reaction ou the loading and unloading zones. Councilman Sani remarked that this ordi- nance had been proposed once before and passage of it stopped. He was of the opinion that it ~as a good ordinance and should be passed, further remarking that deliveries should be made at the proper time when they are supposed to be made. Councilman Bracco stated that only about three or four stores tu the area do not b~ve rear delivery service but already have parallel parking. City Manager McClung remarked that this was brought to the attention of the City Council by the Business Men's Association and that the council should deal through a channel such as this rather than addressing c~mauuicatious to individuals. He further remarked as Councilman Saui pointed out this was brought up before and fought. He said that trucks delivering bottled goods were usually the main objectors and that large trucks such as the drayage firms ar~ iu and out prior to 10:30 a. m. in the morning. Councilman Noonan said that it was his desire to go through channels and withdrew his suggestion if the legislation is desired, as it.seemed to be. Councilman Smith said that the council should bear in mind that they are also considering safety phases as well such as crossing the double line, which was due to this Jutting out of trucks parked. This in itself created a hazard. He further stated that if an accident took place by a driver being forced to cross the double line,~ that driver would be at fault, re- marking that he favored passage of the ordinance. Councilman Noonan said that the trucks angling out between the hours of 9:00 a. m. and 10:30 a. m. in the morning are Just as danger- ous as those that are parked in the same manner after 10:30 a. m. Councilman Smith further suggested that loading in the rear should be enforced if the space is available for such loadi~ and unloading. Councilman 8ani said that a survey had been made some time ago throughout peninsula cities and specific attention paid to see when trucks were parked on busy streets. It was found that no parking existed after a certain time which w~s probably due to the fact that some legislative action prevented this. He cited the case of t-11ow trucks coming into South San Francisco when he operated a butcher business. These calls were usually made in the e~rly hours of the morning and after a while he noticed that they were being made later in the morning. It was possible that this was because of the fact that an ordinance may have existed in other peninsula cities prohibiting the parking of these trucks after a stipulated time in the morning. Councilman Bracco stated that this had been requested by the merchants themselves He therefore moved that the ordinance be given it's second reading. Councilman Sani seconded the motion as made by Councilman Bracco, which was regularly carried. City Attorney Lyons read the ordinance in it's entirety at the request of Councilman Sani. Roll call vote was as follows: Ayes, Councilmen Noonan, Sani, Cortesi, Bracco, Smith. The matter of the ordinance relating to the practice of soliciting was next brought up. City Attorney Lyons suggested that it be held over due to the n~-me~rous requests which had been re- ceived on this matter. He further suggested that it be submitted to the businessmen for their consideration. Councilman Smith stated that he wondered why it should be referred to the businessmen inasmuch as it concerned-all the people in the city to which City Attorney Lyons replied that the ordinance had been drafted at the request of the businessmen. At this point City A~torney Lyons read the ordinance in it's entirety. Councilman Noonan asked how this compared to the ordinance that was in effect in Alexandria, Louisiana to which City Attorney Lyons stated it was substantially the same. At this point Mr. A1 Stuller spoke from the audience stating that the Keystone Services fought the Alexandria ordinance even to the United States Supreme Court, which upheld the ordinance. It was likewise upheld in the California and Louisiana Supreme Courts. He further remarked that it was presently in effect in Sacra- mento, Salinas, and Monterey and was reliably informed that action by South San Francisco was awaited by other peninsula cities for adoption as well. Councilman Sani suggested that it be 'set aside until the City Attorney obtained further information. The matter was laid over by Mayor Cortesi. The following matters were next brought up under unfinished business. ~ With regard to the Ham.l: property rezontng, City Manager McClung suggested that it be laid aside at the request of the residents of Winston Manor #1 and ~2. Ne stated that a meeting had been held and that the improvement groups were to meet with the Highway Department and the agency who was improving the property to work out some unfinished details. He recommended that it be laid over to the regular meeting of August 17. Suggestion of the City Manager was carried out. City Attorney Lyons stated that with regard to the matter of the San Bruno Road Realignment he was awaiting a detailed description of the property from Mr. Riordan so that the grade of this area could be embodied in the resolution. Upon receipt of this information he would drai~ the necessary resolution. The matter of Mr. Berry's request for a road in Avalon Park was not discussed as no informatio~ had been received from Mr. Berry. The matter of Second Lane Improvement was next brought up. Works Engineer Randlett reco~-aende~ that the bid be accepted as it was a good bid. He reported that the reason for not receiving more than one bid may have been due to the r~cent strike. Councilman Sani introduced a reso- lution awarding the contract for improvement of Second Lane to John A. Furrer. Roll call vote w~s as follows: Ayes, Councilmen Noonan, Sani, Cortesi, Bracco, Smith. The matter of setting a date for the zoning hearing was next discussed. City Attorney Lyons stated that one publication in the paper was all that was necessary to announce for the public hearing. Mayor Cortesi suggested that it might be well to set this matter over for further study to which Councilman Noonan stated that he was in agreement with the Mayor that it be laid over and that a copy of the map be placed on display on the bulletin board in the City Hall. Councilman Noonan favored this matter being set over for two meetings. Mayor Cortesi then set the time of the first hearing for September 8th, publicat~tnn in the paper was to be made at least ten days prior to this date. SOLICITORS OB!)INANCE: Mr. Posmanter, present in the audience, then arose and stated that he noticed that only one person h~d been allowed to speak on the subject of solicitors and that this person spoke in favor of the adoption of this ordinance. He remarked that if this was the case he would like this mentioned in the minutes of the meeting. He requested information as to when the busine men would hold their next meeting to which Councilman Bracco replied that it would be this Wednesday at the Southern Kitchen. Councilman Smith suggested that communications be submit~ by each concern interested in the passage of this ordinance, suggesting the flaws in it. He further remarked that he would not have the time as a councilman to speak to each one individ ually. Mr. Posmanter suggested that the matter be held over for two meetings so that all interested would have an opportunity to speak. Councilman Nobnan stated he felt the time as requested should be granted. Councilman Smith remarked that by having these obJectioms in writing that they as councilmen could then read these objections over, weigh the facts with open minds, and decide upon the matter. Councilman Noonan remarked that this could be set over to the next meeting and if it was felt that sufficient time had not been provided, the matter could be continued again. Mayor Cortesi laid the matter over for two weeks at which time to 'decide w~ether or not another two weeks should be granted. Councilman Smith snggeste~ to Mr. Posmanter that each writer specify the firm he represented so that repetitious letters would not be received. A request for copy of the ordinance was made to which it was replied that one WOuld be placed on file in the office of the City Clerk for public view. COLMA FARMS QUARRY OP ERATIONS: SPHUCE AVEi~%~E DEVELOP- The matter of Colma Farms Quarry operations was held over, the matter having been referred to the City Attorney and City Manager. Under good and welfare, Councilman Noonan spoke on the matter of the Spruce Avenue Developmenl stating that the question before the council at the present time was because proper planning had not been done for the future. He said that in the meetings recently held by the Urban Land Institute this body encouraged the development of industrial area~. He said that South San Francisco has done just that. The c~maon thought was in selling industrial areas to the large residential areas but that this was not faced in all areas. However this problem exists on Spruce Avenue. He stated that a man desired to bring in a commercial area, wishing to do what was proper he being a very fairminded person. The residents of this area do not wish to see this done. He further remarked that it was a serious matter in that it not only effected Mayfair Village, but the south boundary of the recently completed High School, Francisco Terra and the Brentwood business district. It was also on a main artery that connects both sections of the city. He stated that a meeting should be held and that a planned development of the street should be set up so that proper commercial developments could be brought into the area and would actually attract rather than detract from it. He said that through some power the development of Spruce Avenue could probably be done not only for South San Francisco but for the rest of the cities in the neighboring communities as well. He said that probably we can prove that a harmonious relationship can exist between the residential area and industrial area by proper development. He suggested that two members of the City Council and two members of the Planning Commission be appointed on a committee to bring in a report as to how Spruce Avenue can be developed from Mayfair Village to E1 Camino Real. It was suggested by members of the council that Councilman Noonan and Mayor Cortesi be appointed on this c~.~ittee. Mayor Cortesi at this point cited the development of his property by the expenditure of money for fill, stating that the area itself would not be good for the development of homes. At this point, Mayor Cortesi stated that he and Councilman Noonan would act on the committee as sugges- ted. Councilman Smith asked who would be appointed from the Planning Commission to which Mayor Cortesi stated that they be informed by letter and that a reply be submitted from the Planning Co~aission naming their committee members. PUBLIC WORKS DEP~TMEI%~: Ceuncilman Smith next brought up the matter of the Public Works Department, stating that a date shquld be set for interviews of applicants. Mayor Cortesi set the date of Monday, August 17, 1953 at 2 p. m. PUBLIC FACILITIES PARK AREA: ~-/~-3 Mayor Cortesi requested the City Manager to see that proper public facilities are made availabl, for the convenience of the people who use the park area in the vicinity of the City Hall. He suggested that possibly the rear doors could be left open during the day so that people would have easy access to these public facilities. AD JOURNMENT: There being no further business, the meeting w~s adjourned to Monday, August 17, 1953 at 8 p.m. Time of Adjournment - 9:45 p. m. APPROVED: Respectfully submitted, City Clerk ~ayor
