DISTRICT
Staff Report, dated No~ember 15, 1978, recommending that Staff
be directed to complete the necessary work to facilitate the
creation of an Assessment District for the improvement of Grand
Avenue and to commence the "Pilot Project" and final working
drawings.
City Planner Costanzo reviewed the Staff'Report to which a
complete list of property owners, as well as parcel numbers
and front footage, was attached. He explained that this re-
presented 63.08% of the total area and property owners of
291,448.16 sq. ft. have petitioned the City, and it was the
recommendation of Staff that Council consider the "Pilot Project."
City Manager Birkelo commented on the previous actions con-
cerning the selection of the architect-planner, and explained
the present point where schematic concept of Grand Avenue im-
provements has been accepted and it is now necessary to trans-
late them into specific working drawings so that the project
can go to bid. The City Manager requested Council's authori-
zation to proceed to negotiate with the consortium of professional
people and come back to Council with agreements for consideration
and approval for further proceeding.
Discussion followed among Council and the City Planner concerning
notification to the property owners; funding for the project
during which time the City Planner explained the funds to be
sought from HCDA, Revenue Sharing, and Assessment District. It
was further explained that the Public Hearings would be held
before the assessment is finalized.
Further discussion followed concerning which area was to be
designated "Pilot" area. Councilman Mirri expressed his con-
cerns that not enough information was given to assess what
properties should be the "target" area.
Lengthy discussion followed among the City Council and City
Planner concerning Council's impression that the "Pilot Project"
had already been established; and this was explained by the
Planner that engineering studies would be made for traffic
safety, and Staff would like the "Pilot Project" in the area
where property owners are making improvements to their store fronts.
Mayor Borba invited anyone who wishes to speak to do so.
Mrs. Carmen Rousso, Rousso's Apparel, 337 Grand Avenue, expressed
her feelings on the uncertainty of the location of the "Pilot
Project."
Councilman Mirri stated that there was some misunderstanding
among the merchants and Council in the wording. He further
commented on the acceptance of the phrase, "Phase I or Phase II"
rather than "Pilot.'"
