He remarked that, in reviewing the motion, the motion of an 18-months' restriction is left out. The City Clerk then forwarded to the applicant a revocable permit in which the 18 months' clause was included. He remarked that further research did show that the City gave a 90-day encroachment permit but an 18 months' variance on the fence and that it would appear that the City should be consistent in this regard. He requested that the Minutes of the meeting of May 3, 1971 be corrected to so reflect, stating that the 18 months' discussion came from the City Planner and/or City Attorney in answer to a question from Council. Councilman Ahern remarked that he felt that this was included at the time that the City Attorney stated that, after 18 months, the City could again review the'matter and if it were causing a problem, then some other action could be taken, otherwise it could be extended. City Attorney Noonan stated that he did state 18 months but that the Minutes do not re- flect and that the applicants do not feel that this was the motion. He further remarked that the permit also was revocable since it used a City right of way and that there would be no objection if the City were to leave the revocable clause in the permit and eliminate the 18 months. Councilman Bertucelli stated that there was also mentioned ~t that time that when and if the City needed the right of way, the fence would be removed~ also if the property were sold or built on, then the fence would also be removed. ' City Attorney Noonan then stated that the City would still retain the revocable nature to which Councilman Bertucelli stated that this was correct. Councilman Bertucelli then moved, seconded by Councilman Ahern and regularly carried, that the Minutes of the meeting of May 3, 1971 be corrected to reflect that the 18 months be removed but that the 90-days revocable clause remain. City Attorney Noonan at this time brought to the attention of the City Council the matter of the Agreement Modification No. I to the sewer rental services with the South San Francisco Housing Authority, requesting authorization for its execution with the new rates to commence on the 15th day of April, 1972.

He briefly remarked that this was presently being administered by the County Fair Board but that there appeared to be some dissatisfaction in this regard, that a new committee was being formed with Mayor Borba as one of its members, that the County Board of Supervisors was willing to contribute financially to this new committee which was solely to be operated and controlled by participating cities. He stated that if such a committee were to be formed, the City's contribution was to reflect 12% of its total revenues which would be an increase and which was to be contributed to the County at the present time. He remarked that the Mayor needed the Council's commitment'. on the 12% contribution for the following day's meeting, Further discussion followed at which time, in answer to Mr. John Yantis', 239 Armour Avenue, inquiry, the cities which were to comprise the committee were mentioned. Mr. Fred Rapp representing the Holiday Inn remarked that their association was behind this program, that the 12% sounded reasonable and that if a program did not prove fruitful, the City could cancel its membership. Councilman Bertucelli brought up an inquiry which he had received from the Library Board Chairman concerning the use of hotel-motel tax monies for the restoration of the old Martin Home which they felt would come under the Beautification Program, requesting of the City Attorney as to whether or not this would qualify. City Attorney Noonan replied that he would like to research the matter and then give his reply. Councilman Ahern then moved, seconded by Councilman Bertucelli and regularly carried, that Mayor Borba be authorized to indicate that the City is willing to go along with the project and see how it works out. There being nothing further, Mayor Borba asked if anyone in the audience had anything they wished to offer under Good and Welfare.

Councilman Ahern stated that the City did not have any control in this regard since the area was now within the County of San Mateo and in order to follow the program of open space, it would be necessary to purchase the land.

Mr. Peter Fotos, 48 Escanyo Drive, stated that, in addition to the dust which came from the development, it was increased by those who use the area with their cars and motor- cycles, stating that the Police had been called but were limited in their enforcement and suggested that the permits of the contractors be revoked which would then obtain results.

He briefly remarked that this was presently being administered by the County Fair Board but that there appeared to be some dissatisfaction in this regard, that a new committee was being formed with Mayor Borba as one of its members, that the County Board of Supervisors was willing to contribute financially to this new committee which was solely to be operated and controlled by participating cities. He stated that if such a committee were to be formed, the City's contribution was to reflect 12% of its total revenues which would be an increase and which was to be contributed to the County at the present time.

Further discussion followed at which time, in answer to Mr. John Yantis', 239 Armour Avenue inquiry, the cities which were to comprise the committee were mentioned.
