(CONTINUED)
Mr. Bruce Rosengren, President of West Park Homeowners Association, spoke, stating
that not much more could be added to their last presentation other than to request
Council to seriously consider the area as a unique development which would be a credit
to the City of South San Francisco in future years. He requested that the developer
be obliged to leave lot 158 clear for open space and he explained how concerned the
West Park Homeowners were, not only the houses involved, but the area as a whole.
Mr. Donald Gamma, 3790 Cork Place, Vice President of Nest Park Homeowners Association,
commended the City Council for their concern of the property owners in the matter of
the Westborough Boulevard Extension and expressed his desire to have Council give the
same consideration to the property owners who were now involved in a similar situation
where their privacy would be invaded. He stated that the whole area would feel the
effect, not just the two or three homes concerned.
Mayor Pro Tem Steinkamp at this time asked the City Clerk if any more written protests
had been received to which he replied that none had been received.
Mr. Henry Richman, Vice President of J. H. Snyder Company, spoke in behalf of their
Use Permit, explaining how his company was doing its utmost to make the development
a beautiful 1300-home complex in the Westborough-West Park area; how they had employed
the finest in Landscape Architects; ho~ they had endeavored to cooperate with the
Planning Commission, Planning Department to build a Common Green in a beautiful
development and to have their houses a credit to the community. Mr. Richman continued,
reiterating Mr. Guzzardo's, Landscape Architect, explanation of the concept of Common
Greens. He further explained the impossibilities of having Common Greens wide all the
way through, which thus required narrow corridors to approach these Common Greens.
He stated that they had maintained a flow and pattern of the Common Greens, widening
the Common Green corridor and lighting the area as recommended, with a better drainage
system to be installed, to make this a beautiful development, a model complex of which
West park, South San Francisco and the whole Bay Area would be proud.
Mr. John Anagnos, 3787 Cork Place, asked about the enlargement of the Common Green
butting his property.
Mr. Richman explained the installation of landscaping which was recommended by the
Landscape Architect.
Mrs. Anita Anagnos, 3787 Cork Place, spoke that the landscaping was not their concern
but the 18;foot Common Green behind their home.
Mr. Richman again described the landscaping, lighting and drainage as existing in all
of the Common Greens.
Mr. LeRoy Gay, 3791 Cork Place, spoke that the width of the Common Green was their
concern and not the narrowness of the corridors and challenged Mr. Richman's statement
that a home built on lot 158 would he a model home on only an 18-foot Common Green.
In the absence of Mr. Theodore Tronoff, Engineer, Mr. Rtchman brtefly explained the
dimensions of other Common Greens.
Mr. Kenneth Goslin, 3787 Cork Place, spoke that the difference between the two Other
narrow corridors existing, was that these homes butted on the Common Green.
Mr. Gay stated that he had measured every Common Green in the area and found the
smallest, 24 feet from fence to fence.
Mayor Pro Tem Steinkamp explained that Council had viewed the area but had not physically
measured the areas.
Mrs. Betty Murphy, 3771 Cork Place, spoke as an indiVidual home owner who purchased
their home with the idea that the original concept would he followed and requested
Council to uphold the plan under which they purchased their home.
Councilman Mammini requested an explanation from the City Attorney and City Planner
regarding construction in the manner which the original plans showed and the matter
of the widening of the 8-foot Common Green.
City Planner Daniel Pass explained that the complaint stemmed from the change from t~n
houses to cuplets where the rear of several lots look upon the side entrances of
family homes.
Councilman Mammint asked if lot 158 wouldn't be oriented in the same manner as origi-
nally planned to which City Planner Pass replied that it would be oriented to the rear
of the Common Greens.
City Planner Pass at this time presented the original drawing to Councilman Mammini and
explained that the placement of this lot was unique in that it was the result of a study
of the 1906 tracing of the San Francisco earthquake.
Discussion followed concerning the layout of the home fronting the side of another home,
and the situation of other homes in the area.
City Attorney Noonan outlined the facts as they developed from the original map to the
composite map which Council had viewed, explaining the original map showing the school
site which was to have a large precentage of green area; the large green area of the 2~-
acre park; and the long triangular piece of land which was on the recorded map. He
further stated that the records showed the landscaping plans hy Anthony Guzzardo; the
Agreement between the City and the successors and interests, at that time, SSF Corporati¢
in which the City detailed items of work the successors were to do. The only item of
work did not concern this particular Common Green. He further explained to Council that
a change in the original plan to accommodate the earthquake fault might alter the

conclusion in their opinion of allo~i~hg7 the enlargment of the Common Green. He further
explained the courses of action Open to Council based on this situation.
Mrs. George Tanner, 3775 Cork Place, spoke, that when they bought their home three
years ago, they were shown plans which displayed the area including the school and
play grounds. She protested against having bought under these circumstances to be now
faced with a change of plans and requested Council to consider their appeal.
City Attorney Noonan again explained to Council how the change in mentioned lot might
warrant a change in the Common Green area.
Further discussion followed concerning the date the maps were recorded; the time the
residents bought their properties; if the lots were reoriented; and the question as
to whether or not, since the school area was released, if the original concept was
not followed - if a discretionary right existed.
In answer to Councilman Rocca's inquiry as to whether or not all of these facts were
studied when the Planning Commission unanimously approved UP-119, City Planner Pass
stated that when a map is approved, it has to he recognized by any and all governing
bodies. He further explained the approved changes made in the original map.
Further discussion followed concerning the platement of garages between the houses
and the e~trances facing the side of other homes.
Mr. George Tanner, 3775 Cork Place, spoke concerning the lack of privacy and sunlight
to their home and requested the abandonment of lot 158.
Councilman Ahern stated that in dtscussi~ this issue with some Planning Commissioners
in private, was told that this developer was regarded as very progressive and cooperative
and was willing to help in a solution.
Councilman Ma~mini stated that earlier statements regarding the financial status of
the developer had no bearing in this matter and since he bought in good faith, he
could not have a lot denied him and suggested another meeting to further conclude the
matter. He further questioned Mx. Rtchman if another lot could compensate in lieu of
this lot.
Mr. Richman replied that there was an unequal amount of land.
City Planner Pass further stated that, functioning as City Planner, he recommended that
there was another lot to consider in the former school site which would reduce that
Common Green to 40 feet thereby eliminating a smaller proposed 18-foot Common Green,
allowing for open space and ventilation.
Mayor Pro Tem Steinkamp called a recess at 9=20 p.m. for Council to consider the matter.
Mayor Pro Tem Steinkamp recalled the meeting to order at 9~38 p.m., stating that the
developer had agreed to compromise and requested the City Attorney to explain.
City Attorney Noonan stated, by eliminating lot 158 and adding lot 189A, presently
shown on the map, Council could take action in the matter.
Mayor Pro Tem Steinkamp stated that in view of an agreement among all concerned,
declared the Public Hearing closed.

Adoption of the "Housing Element" of the General Plan.
Mayor Pro Tem Stetnkamp asked the City Clerk if any written protests had been received
to which he replied that none had been received.
In reply to Mayor Pro Tem Steinkamp's invitation to those in the audience who wished to
speak, Mr. Donald Grimes, 123 Francisco Drive, inquired if this was a revision of the
General Plan.
Councilman Mammini stated that this was requested by the State of California of all

conditions throughout the State.

demnation be organized to take some of the burden now on the Chief Building Inspector.
He further stated that this study pointed out areas needing attention; areas needing
conservation and areas that, in the future, needed demolition; and that this study
originated from a request of the National Association of Home Builders.
Mr. Grimes requested information concerning the report made in 1955 concerning the
high density in the Westborough area.
Councilman Mammini explained that this area at that time was County land.

and there were no changes to the plan. He further commented that this study was later
used to determine the size of culvert to be installed in the Spruce Avenue Drainage Proje¢

this time.
City Attorney Noonan replied that he had drawn up the legal vehicle to make this

RESOLUTION OF AWARD OF CONTRACT CABOT, CABOT & fORBES INDUSTRIAL PARK UNIT NO. 2A
ASSESSMENT DISTRICT EXTENSION OF foRBES BOULEVARD, KAUFPV~N COURT AND PT. SAN BRUNO
BOULEVARD' were concerned with the award of contract for public improvements in Cabot,
Cabot & Forbes Industrial Park, Units No. 2 and No. 2A.
Director of Public Works Goss declared the bids received and stated that the low
bidder, with a bid of $g56~650.12, was McGuire & Hester and this bid was over the Engineer
estimate made in June of this year.
City Manager McKenzie at this time read the communication dated Ju}y 21, 1969 from
Wilsey & Ham as addressed to the City Council concerning the award of contract.
City Attorney Noonan explained to Council that it is required that monies or a bond
he deposited for monies needed in excess of the funds remaining in the Assessment District
before awarding the contract. He further explained that monies raised by assessment
district proceedings, whereby Council was the administrative body, was for the total
assessment districts and this would require taking funds from one district and leaving
the other district unable to put in improvements in other areas. City Attorney Noonan
recommended a two-weeks' revision of this matter and a continuance.
Mr. Samuel Nash, Engineer for Wilsey & Ham, stated that he had contacted Mr. Gilbert
of Cabot, Cabot & Forbes, and Mr. Gilbert had stated that they would be willing to pay
the overcharges in the assessment district as they occurred. This was done in two
other occasions and he explained the procedure of payment. He further remarked that
this was necessary because of the time element with the winter season to be considered
and the reasons for the bids being higher than the Engineem'estimate. He explained
that these might be because of their timidity in possible problems with the filled
ground. He requested of Council that award he made to McGuire & Hester with the
condition that Cabot, Cabot & Forbes submit evidence that they will make up the difference
in the District at such time the District funds are depleted. He stated that this would
not legally require the City to sign a contract until this condition was made.
City Attorney Noonan explained that the contract would be between the City and the
contractor and not Cabot, Cabot & Forbes and they would be liable for the bills.
Mr. Nash remarked that Cabot, Cabot & Forbes.would pay for improvements in Cabot, Cabot
& Forbes Unit No. 1, namely, the installation of portion of railroad crossing protection;
the removal of the Swift spur track; the portion of modification to the lighting system.
He further explained the escalation of construction costs which have occurred in the time
between the Engineers' report and the receipt of bids.
Discussion followed between Councilman Mammini and Mr. Nash regarding the total 200
acreage; the sale of bonds through assessment districts and the possibility that portions
of this land would be too expensive to sell for warehouse sites; and the development of
portions of the land for hotel-motel complex and high-rise office building.
