ference Center with a request for $32,000; $26,000
was for a sales person and $6,000 for the internet;
the Council directed him to go back to the Hotel
Assoc. and see if they would buy into the proposal;
he did, and now has a new proposal; they are still
requesting the $32,000 towards this program and
having the hotels participate, but this time the pro-
posal is for $26,000 which includes a brochure to
hand out with a welcome by the Mayor, describing
the area and a bit about the Chamber; the Hotel
Assoc. will take over the $6,000 of the internet, as
individuals, but they cannot take on the brochure;
this will be a partnership between the Hotel Assoc.
and the City for a year and then, judge the results;
etc.

red flags were raised in the transcripts where an
officer alleges Mr. Molieri punched the person and
shoved him twice, but did not see him do it in the
dark room; she felt there was lying and someone is
covering up for Officer Molieri's co-workers; she
feels the City should reevaluate, and see who is

accountable, for this is costing the City money for
lawsuits that are based on assumptions; she feels
Officer Molieri is the victim and she and others will
not tolerate racism or discrimination in the Police
Department.
Mr. James Luff, 331 Arbor Dr., stated "Months ago
I attended the Molieri public hearing and took my
own time to read the transcripts. After this, I spoke
to you, the Council, and advised you this Officer
was treated unfairly. Also, this hearing brought to
light that discriminatory practices exist within the
S.S.F. Police Department. Many other S.S.F. citi-
zens, as well as, members of the Molieri family
have advised you of this problem. A recent article
appeared where the President of the S.S.F. Police
Assoc. and their elected boardmembers wrote a
letter advising all of us that if we exercise our feder-
al and state rights we will not be supported. If this
association president took the time to read those
transcripts and then knowingly made this type of
statement, then he' too is supporting this type of
discrimination and misconduct to exist within the
organization. This association president did not
even have enough time to come to the hearing so
that he could fairly represent all of their members.
Instead, he took it upon himself to warn citizens not
to expose this type of discriminatory behavior. I
want to remind council that your obligation is to the
citizens of S.S.F., because this Hispanic Officer, his
family, friends and I have exercised our federal and
state rights, are now being warned to keep quiet
about this issue. I want to remind the Council and
its members that if this is not put to a stop then you
are simply aiding and abetting this type of behavior.
By not taking any action, you are conspiring and
promoting this type of action in violation of
federal law. Patiently, many of us have been wait-
ing for the council to take some sort of action, but
instead it has allowed this cancer to spread. I really
feel for some of the police officers who are having
to work and exist in this type of environment. I
want to remind you that there is no way you can
change what took place in that hearing, you can only
try to correct it.
Thank you for your time and please attach this letter
to the council's meeting agenda."

City Attorney Mattas stated the members of the
Council, the City, has reviewed many of the allega-
tions, and has hired an outside individual to investi-
gate all of the claims raised by Officer Molieri. The
findings have been transmitted to the EOC and the
allegations are not substantiated and he does not
believe it is appropriate for the Council to respond
for they have responded to their obligation. The
City Council has been advised and Mr. Molieri was
advised through the EOC process. There is a possi-
bility that the City will be served with a law
suit, and he does understand the civil rights statute
and Officer Molieri has the right to have the suit
heard in a civil or federal court.
Mr. Joe Valcazar, 721 Spruce Avenue, stated he
was representing the Oldtown Historic Homeowners
Assoc. and thanked the Council for their past ser-
vices to the community and work that has affected
the well being of S.S.F. He stated the community
lives in harmony which would not be possible with-

Councilman Mullin spoke of an article in the Exam-

from other communities that were portrayed in
S.S.F. He stated he will be writing a letter to the
Examiner to make sure that in future they show a
proper view of this City, for he had also received
calls from residents who were also concerned.
Councilman Penna stated he also received a call
from the same individual, because he too requested
the City Manager to write a letter for the Council in
response to the article, for the paper to show a true
representation of S.S.F.

PUBLIC HEARINGS
Mayor Fernekes opened the Hearing.
City Attorney Mattas explained: the City was
extending an offer of $4.3 million and the owner is
not interested; the condemnation process offers
benefits to the owner; this will save $630,000 by the
end of the lease with City ownership rather than
having a leasehold interest; he considers the proper-
ty necessary even for the substantial cost; he ex-
plained GC 7267 and stated the City was offering a
fair market value.
Mayor Fernekes invited those wishing to speak for
or against the item to step to the dais - no one did
and he closed the Hearing.
Councilman Mullin asked for a brief description of
the basis for a City to take private property by
eminent domain.
Atty. David Skinner, Meyers, Nave, Riback, Silver
& Wilson, Attorneys, explained: the California
Constitution gives a city the power to exercise and
acquire property for public use; certain findings

must be laid out; the issue is a fair market value for
the property owner to be paid just compensation; if
there is a dispute the city can go into court and have
them decide; three methodologies to evaluate prop-
erty.
Councilman Yee asked at what point does the Coun-
cil have the latitude to increase the offered
amount and in a worst case scenario, what if the
offer is greatly higher.
City Attorney Mattas stated there may be offers of
settlement in a court case.
Attorney Skinner stated a condemnation agreement
cannot pay more because it is a gift of public funds,
however, if the case is settled the city may have to
come up with additional funds for they may have to
pay for the litigation.
Councilman Yee stated he has concerns and wants
the Attorney to tell the Council of the different
levels of risk or cost, as well as a schedule of
events.
City Attorney Mattas stated he would in Closed
Session.
Councilman Mullin questioned "gift of public
funds", and questioned if the condemning agency
has the obligation to pay for other party appraisals.
Attorney Skinner stated the city could be liable for
the property owners attorney fees.
Discussion followed: Councilman Yee wants a
financial breakdown - attorney fees and all; $93,000
includes the appraisal, witness and litigation costs;
there is a tax advantage for the property owner.

Director of Economic & Community Development
Van Duyn gave a letter to the Council from Leach,
McGreevy & Bautista, LLP, received by FAX
12/12/96, however, he feels ther has been sufficient
time of do the work and recommends action on the
revocation.
Marq Bautista, Arty, stated he was the Attorney for
Ling Nam and described their efforts to meet the
City's requirements for the lighting, for the owner
of the property would not honor his obligations for
the light standards: Mr. Lim has spent $8,000 and
$2,000 more for the extra fixtures; most of the
lighting has been completed, except there will be
three light fixtures rather than 4; there are only two
light standards that need to have fixtures added,
unfortunately everything with respect to the light
standards are not off the shelf and must be manu-
factured for the re-aiming of the fixture on the light
standard; even with their rush order, the fixtures
will not be ready for installation until about three
weeks from the date of 11/25/96.
City Attorney Mattas related: it is only a matter of
a few hours to put the mounting hardware on the
light standards; it would be five or six hours to
completely comply with the Planning Commission
requirements; it would take an hour for the lighting
engineer to retarget the lights; he spoke to Sgt.
Petrocchi who told him there have not been inci-
dents since this commenced; he believes the stan-
dards will be in by Friday and before Christmas;
this was not entirely Mr. Lim's fault, it was a prob-
lem with the owner and then a problem with the
making and shipping of the item.
Police Sgt. Petrocchi described staff's recommenda-
tions: to improve the lighting and do a lighting
analysis; this should have been accommodated by
October; it was not done in Oct., there was a hear-
ing, and they were asked if they could get this done
within the next month, yet it is not done; the police
want the building safe; the City Attorney said there
were no incidents - no major calls, but there were

Mayor Femekes closed the Public Hearing.
Discussion followed: Councilman Mullin asked if
the order for these particular items will go forward
after the revocation; Mr. Lim's Attorney was not
sure it was before October, because he was new on
the case; staff feels there has been a reluctance to
comply with the requirement; the police are con-
cerned and feel the lighting standards will increase
security; because the owner will not make the im-
provements the obligation is upon the applicant; the
applicant is going to withhold the rent for the light
standards, but wants to go forward and fix it; Coun-
cilman Yee suggested extending the deadline to
January for it looks like the applicant is doing some-

part of what is required for a development to try to
restore the habitat; since most of the major develop-
ment has just started, the HCP says we are not
going to rely on disturbed habitat and are learning a
lot about it; we are making good efforts by getting
experts; his group is supposed to work with the
Fish & Game people, but have not heard from them,
nor has the County; the mountain has 73 acres of
eucalyptus and 10,000 native plants were planted in
the last year; the major plan is to remove the weeds;
the butterfly population is stable; etc.
Mayor Fernekes stated there were 11 speaker cards
this evening and strongly recommended the speakers
not be repetitive, their testimony is important, but
will be allowed five minuts speaking time each
speaker.
Mr. David Schooley, San Francisco/San Bruno
Mountain Watch, related: his group has been
involved with the Mountain for 28 years; the groups
conducts hikes on the Mountain, in addition to
restoration and watching the Mountain; at this point
the group does not agree with the so-called compro-
mise or HCP affecting not just San Bruno Mountain,
but the United States for this is a destruction of rare
and endangered habitat and an attempt to recreate
that destruction in another area; San Bruno was the
first place this HCP took place; they are not in
agreement with Sunchase and urge that any repair
of native habitat mitigation not take place after the
destruction happened; he was recently in Sacramento
and noted that Fish & Game are also relooking at
San Bruno Mountain, as well as the whole of the
United States, and are worried and trying to make
new plans for all areas; the lower South Slope that
used to be called Paradise Valley has been destroyed
in S.S.F. and they do not believe any of it can be
repaired; they also hold that the public here and
around the United States will be aware of what
that habitat conservation destruction did; he has
concern for what will happen in the third phase
for it feels it is a very critical area for the native
Americans lived there for 5,000 years and Terrabay
and Sunchase have not given a clear statement of
what the third phase will do and hope the Council
will not accept it as it is right now until there is a
careful study of that area is done; he requested that
this portion of the EIR; they feel the document

should be something they can all understand of
what will happen after the next 13 years; they
request that this portion of the EIR be studied and
perhaps put off right now; finally there is a possible
purchase of the shell mounds which would then be
added to the open space on San Bruno Mountain and
there be a much more careful study for this is the
last of San Bruno Mountain and one of its last spe-
cial areas by the bay; it is one of the last places in
the whole bay and that is critical to the future of
this City; we all know growth is enormous, but that
is not always a good thing; etc.
Mr. Lewis Buchner, Bay Area Mountain Watch,
stated it seems to him the issue is a development
agreement which is a fairly broad development
agreement of what will happen to the land around
San Bruno Mountain. He related: the area is ex-
tremely unique with a native habitat in tact with
intrinsic value to our children and is precious and
important; the Sunchase Project seems to be divided
into three phases, one and two are along Sister
Cities Blvd. and three will be at old Bayshore for
the hotel; he feels the agreement should be revised
and only apply to Phase One and Two; forwards; he
feels the damage has been done, but they work with
the habitat, but Phase Three should be handled
special for there is a serious offer to purchase the
shell mounds and dedicate them; Sunchase gets a
profit, there is a dedication contiguous to Juncas
Ravine and we can say we did something right; etc.
Mr. Ken Sinclair, 22 Sonora Ave., spoke in favor of
granting the extension, because Sunchase is has
expressed a willingness to deal with the environ-
mental aspects.
Mr. Terry Matlock spoke strongly in support of
safeguarding indian ancestral culture and remains
throughout California and recited history of that
oppression. He feels the shell mounds are very
important to make people stop and think about indi-
ans because so much has been taken away from
them and try to make up for the terrors of the past.
He feels these are cemeteries and should not be
disturbed but protected and put in trust for the indi-
an people.
Mr. Fred Matthews, 843 Easton Ave., San Bruno,

related: he is also a member of the Bay Area
Mountain Watch; he noted, as the century ends there
are fewer and fewer virgin lands; he feels an exten-
sion of the agreement would be a mistake at this
time, because the public is no longer in agreement
with the open space element; etc.
Ms. Marcy Schultz, Business Mgr. for the Building
and Construction Trades, spoke in support of the
extension. She stated this is a battle that has gone
on for 20 years to get development on the Mountain,
plus there were more public hearings than she cared
to remember and had been fought in the Courts.
She related: the Project has been started, Phase
One; it is a very good Project; over the last few
months the Building Trades have been working with
Sunchase and they want to use union contractors,
many of which are S.S.F. residents; the Project is
going to bring permanent jobs in Phase 3 and
homes; we know San Mateo is in need of housing
which is a need this Project is supplying; her main
concern after 20 years of battles is to get respon-
sible development and the development be done by
well trained construction workers; if it is turned
down, after all of these years of working towards
this end goes down the drain, if they do not get the
extension - we don't have a project.
Mr. Farnum Alston, 21 Sunnyside, Corte Madera,
President of Environmental Mitigation who are
trying to acquire environmental habitat and set them
up for protection of endangered species. His group
has reviewed the Terrabay proposal, are not opposed
to the development, but want to purchase the areas
of the shell mounds for several million dollars to set
up an environmental area to protect the shell mounds
that exist. This has been turned down by Terrabay,
but they feel it is the highest use of the property.
Ms. Jan Pont, 111 Belmont Ave., related: she
feels all phases are important, but there should be
more public hearings and studies in regard to traffic
that has not been completed; the hook ramps have to
be constructed and part of that is going to go into
the shell mounds; she has not seen any of the draw-
ings; she is concerned about the fly aways and more
traffic on Hillside and Sister Cities Blvd.; right now
the Oyster Point Blvd. is inadequate and needs more

widening areas which should not be in Phase Three;
in ten years who is going to be on Council; she gave
the Council the San Bruno/San Francisco Bay Watch
newspaper which she found most interesting.
Mr. Dan Shattuc, 907 W. Cardinal Dr., Sunnyvale,
related: he has been following San Bruno Mountain
for 25 to 30 years; he is familiar with the snakes,
turtles and wetlands of which he is very concerned
because no one seems to want to listen to the envi-
ronmental issues; this is pristine property that
has been vastly destroyed and the good top soils
have been buried by the grading; the site needs to be
preserved; he has been adamant about earthquakes,
and there are going to be problems for there are
sliding homes in this vicinity, overflows and flood-
ing - yet the experts say no; there will be many
environmental impacts from the development; the
traffic is a bottleneck and it will only get worse;
there is not enough space to put in hook ramps; this
is the industrial city and there are many trucks, you
must know the times also for the public transporta-
tion study that must be done; he does not agree with
the ten year extension; maybe we can hold back and
complete what we have and let the rain fall for a
couple of years; 101 is always congested and is out
of our control, but we can control what we put in;
he suggested putting in a two or three year extension
based on completion and bringing forward plans.
Mr. John Ward, 792 Willborough Place,
Burlingame, refutted earlier comments on the Pro-
ject: this is a state of the art habitat; there is anoth-
er 22 acres that will be eventually accepted by the
Council and added to the park; repair has been
completed on the landslide area and money is
committed by the Developer to carry them through
subsequent phases; he urged the Council to approve
the extension and modify the Specific Plan.
Ms. Espanola Jackson, 3231 Ingalls, stated she was
appointed by the Indian Tribunal and urged the
Council to vote against the proposal. She had heard
tonight about the habitat and $50,000 going to some
group. She stated she is an aborigine, however,
most people are not aware of shell mounds which
are really grave yards. Most people are not aware
of the culture of the areas for over ten thousand
years. When they heard they were talking about

cementing over a grave site and making a parking
lot and it reminded her of poltergeist. We are talk-
ing about burial mounds and spiritual lands to the
indians, yet the people tonight are talking about
disturbing the grave sites. She stated they did not
bury like you do with one here and one there, we
went upwards - that is why it is called mounds and
is of emotional concern.
She stated that her group had asked S.F. for money
for Bayview Hill for the burial grounds. She stated
Candlestick Park is made up of bones, shell mounds
and relics.
Mr. Rich Follansbee, 1705 Church St., g202, stated
he is a mathematics instructor at two local colleges.
He stated that the HCP was an attempt to get nature
to act right and on San Bruno Mountain it has been
attempted to create habitat for butterflies where the
butterflies didn't previously live. There are gallant
efforts to do that, but money to continue such efforts
went away and for five years no restoration took
place. San Bruno is the poster that everyone looks
to for success to take the idea elsewhere through the
United States. It has not worked here, maybe the
habitation plan could work but no one has shown it
to work, instead it has been the destruction of the
habitat by development.
He asked the Council to think about the two options
it has - to allow the continuation of the Plan for the
ten years which may yield some more jobs and take
it toll, but which will certainly kill some endangered
species; or give up some jobs and have the assur-
ance you will have the endangered species longer
than the ten years. When the hotel goes bankrupt or
the you cement over the shell mound - you will not
have the habitat.
Ms. Elizabaeth Nisperos, 111 Francisco Place,
appealed to the Council as a resident, a scientist and
an artist and hoped the Council will think several
times before any more development. She read
articles from the Bay Guardian and was very con-
cerned about a destruction of the habitat. She could
in no way value hotels over shell mounds of the
indians which is history, culture and people; etc.

spoke in favor of the extension and stated it would
bring jobs into S.S.F. and urged the Council to
extend the agreement.
Mr. Breen, Sunchase, stated this is the end of a long
process and he feels it is like a graduation because it
is a commencement and gives them a chance to start
something. This gives them time to develop the
plans and develop Phase 2 and 3 for Phase 1 is
completed with the rec center that was wanted for
years. The funding for the childcare center and the
rest of the project can go forward with good, sensi-
tive planning with the ability to make something
saleable to the community.
He feels the things on the Mountain have been
handled well by his firm. He presented Council
with a letter from Sterling Pacific Management
Services, Inc. dated 12/17/96 as a response to a
letter from EMAX.
Mayor Fernekes closed the Public Hearing.
Discussion followed: the staff report refers to cap-
ping the site to preserve it and a recommendation to
change the language; if Council grants the ten year
extension all plans will be subject to Council review
and will be subject to a new round of environmental
reviews for Phases 2 and 3 as indicated in the Sup-
plemental EIR and all archeological recommenda-
tions will be forthcoming in response to the site
plans; so, there is nothing at this point that impacts
the shell mound location; staff has prepared some
exhibits on the hook ramps and there is no reason to
believe they will affect the shell mounds; Council-
man Yee noted, the staff report indicates five dif-
ferent ways to deal with the mitigation of the shell
mounds; Councilman Yee was the one who had
brought the matter up, but the language does not
satisfy him because we do not know what way we
are going to preserve the shell mounds and he did
not want the Developer to make a decision based on
the five ways; and, sure, capping is a way but that
does not mean that is what the Council is going to
approve; Councilman Penna believes it is a grave-
yard and should be preserved for he was involved in
the archeological team that went out and took a look
at the site that is a graveyard and found people and
animal bones in there, but the report has been kept

quiet; Councilman Yee agareed, but there is not
enough information but need to put language in
there so a future Council can make the decision after
our giving them enough latitude; Councilman Penna
stated the site cannot be capped, because that is
5,000 years of history that is going to be com-
pressed and lost and there is too much involved on
the site to let it go; this is a small site, 50 acres, and
when you talk about the hook ramps your talking
about redesign and ground fill; Councilman Penna
uses Sister City Blvd. to get to the freeway and he
does not think the Council is pursuing the right
course; he does not prefer seeing the hook ramps in
S.S.F. and thinks they should be in Brisbane; he
feels the State is going to see it is a graveyard and it
is going to be a long term problem and he feels the
graveyard should be removed from the Project or
sold off; Councilman Mullin stated there should be
language to meet Councilman Penna's concerns that
the Council does not want capping under any cir-
cumstances, and Councilman Yee is saying, in the
future there will be options to deal with it if there is
latitude; if the State says it is a burial ground, then
we cannot do anything, but can't the Council come
up with language so when Phase 3 gets under way
there will be options to deal with; City Attorney
Mattas stated the language in the staff report and
the modifications by Councilman Yee give the
Council to employ the options of preservation; when
the Council is being asked to approve an extension
of the Development Agreement that sets forth pa-
rameters in Phase 2 and 3 where the shell mounds
are and an environmental study; the Council will be
presented with any of these options, including pre-
servation; Councilman Penna wants the Council to
make a clear statement tonight that says if the
site is an archeological site we cannot allow the
capping of that site; Councilman Mullin concurred,
particularly capping for a parking lot is not the
preferred method and if it is a valid archeological
site the State will step in, but he does not feel eom-
fortable telling a future Council that they can do;
Mr. Shattuc talked about the drainage problems with
buildout and Councilman Mullin thought those con-
cerns have been adequately addressed in the EIR;
the runoff has been addressed with storm drains and
sewers in the development; the plans have been
reviewed by numerous agencies and constructed
accordingly and there are no problems; the likeli-

hood of having more problems because of the
buildout is negligible; in 1992 we had a major
storm, a 100 year storm and we handled and Mr.
Gibbs takes his hat off to the engineers; one gentle-
man stated this was a relocation of the butterflies;
Ms. Victoria Harris stated they have not relocated
the butterflies other than the grading; staff has not
heard problems from Fish & Game; $50,000 for the
remainder lands is a ten year plan; obligation to the
HCP is to the homeowners; Mr. Mark Crane, Crane
Transportation, stated by the year 2000 the bayshore
will exceed four lanes and in 2010 there will be a
greater need and the hook ramps will be needed; the
flyover will be needed between 2000 and 2010 to
serve in-bound travel; a pro rata share must be
addressed similar to the Oyster Point formula to get
a fair share allocation; AB1600 methodology was
taken into account and Terrabay has contributed to
the flyover and hook ramps; the 101 study is two
years old and the Brisbane study was made in 1993;
the existing development agreement, page 6, is not
revised except for the child care center, so Council
carries all these conditions forward for 10 years; we
want the development to go forward with the eom-
mercial for revenue sources; the significance of

identified the traffic issue and compatibility to the

Councilman Penna has concern for the area between
Grand/Railroad and Orange Avenues and think it
should be rezoned if there is a new development.
He wants the Council to think about changing the
name of Railroad Avenue for most people don't like
that as an address.
Councilman Mullin stated the traffic generation
points to residential northerly, whether mixed or
not, to make it compatible and create a secondary
street. He is also concerned with the apartment
complexes in that area and mixed zoning and densi-
ty.
Councilman Yee agreed for it is close to the park,
has residential and other mixed uses.
Mayor Fernekes agrees and does not want apartment
complexes.
ITEMS FROM COUNCIL
Mr. Obenhuber related: he interviewed the City
Clerk in October and passed on the information
received from her to be included in the package; he
conducted a total compensation in summary form,
including base salary with 8 or 9 benefits including
health, vacation, holidays, car allowance and items
of that nature; he surveyed nine different cities
in the bay area and five were added to bring it to a
higher level because when you only do four or five
you have a problem with comparability; so, they
surveyed nine and the results showed the S.S.F.
City Clerk was 27% below the average and 34%
below with the benefits; the clerk duties were es-
sentially the same in all cities whether elected or
appointed; in Milpitis clerk has a staff of nine and
handles all word processing for the city; etc.
Discussion followed: why the survey took so long;
Alameda and Hayward are not in the group sur-
veyed; the cities the survey includes; some cities use
18 or 20 cities for salary surveys and the consortium
cities only use four or five, but the majority use ten
to twelve; Councilman Mullin stated it is clear our
City Clerk is below all the cities included in the

Mayor Fernekes, because of the many factors in-
volved, appointed Councilmembers Penna and Yee

Ms. Francis Row, 709 Harvard, Sunnyvale, stated
that Sunnyvale's Deputy City Clerk makes $60,636
and gets an annual review for an additional 10%
salary annually. She feels a City Clerk is greater
than a Deputy and $56,000 for the S.S.F. Clerk
should be greater and she was glad the Council was
going to give her a raise.
