P RESENTATIONS
Ed Smith and Clint Garwin of the Street Band of Morro Bay
presented a check in the amount of $800 to the Mayor. It was
noted that these funds were to be used in the PARTNERS program.
Mr. Napper noted that item B-1 regarding the 54th Street nuisance
abatement had been pulled from the agenda and would be
rescheduled in the near future.
A. PUBLIC HEARINGS, REPORTS AND APPEARANCES
A-1 MORRO BAY GOLF COURSE OPERATING AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY
OF MORRO BAY AND STATE OF CALIFORNIA
S teve Wolter stated that there were significant differences
between the contract the County has with the State and the one
t he State has proposed to enter into with the City. The State is
asking $80,000 annual rent, requiring that the City post a
$20,000 surety bond, accept the clubhouse in an "as is'
condition, and offering a 5 year agreement. Mr. Wolter noted
t hat City inspection of the clubhouse shows 40 items in need of
correction which could cost over $125,000 to repair.
Gary Napper suggested that Council temporarily delay any formal
action in approving the agreement and wait for official word from
1

t AGE TWO
the State to the County that the contract has been terminated.
At that time the City could inform the State that it would
✓ eceive the golf course if and when the State has the authority
t o put it out to bid.
John Evans, chairman of the Golf Course Advisory Board,
introduced members of the Board present at the meeting; Austin
Brumley, Mac Little, and Leon Osteyee. Members of the Board not
present were Bob Blanchard, Jackie Bodie and Dick Armstrong.
Mayor Shelton opened the matter to the public for comments. Mr.
Evans stated that he had reservations about the City of Morro Bay
t aking over operation of the golf course. He cited the annual
✓ ental fee plus percentage of the concession that the State is
✓ equiring in their agreement, the short lease term of 5 years,
t he deteriorated condition of the clubhouse and the inexperience
of the City in managing a golf course.
Austin Brumley was in favor of the City taking over operation of
t he golf course.
MOTION: Councilmember Zeuschner moved that the hearing be
closed to the public. The motion was seconded by Coun-
cilmember Lemons and unanimously carried. (5-0)
Councilmember Anderson felt that with 96,650 rounds of golf
played on the Morro Bay Golf Course in a year, the golfers would
be looking at a $.80 to $.90 per round increase under the
conditions outlined by the State. He thought perhaps the Council
would be doing the citizens of Morro Bay a favor by leaving the
course in the hands of the County until their contract runs out
in the year 2000.
Councilmember Lemons stated that the City became interested in
t he acquisition of the golf course after the County's announced
intention that they were going to put the concession operation
out to bid. The City felt it should operate the concession
✓ ather than a private operator. Regarding the upgrading of the
clubhouse, the golfers will end up paying for the renovation
whether the County or the City does the repairs. He is presently
✓ xploring the possibility of a grant for this project.
Duane Leib spoke regarding the City take over of the golf course
and the proposed contract between the City and the State. The
biggest problem he sees with the contract is the short 5 year
lease term.
MOTION: Councilmember Risley moved that the matter be referred
back to the ad hoc committee so that they can all have
a chance to see the latest copy of the contract and

that the matter return to Council at the next meeting.
The motion was seconded by Councilmember Lemons and
unanimously carried. (5-0)
A-2 APPROVAL OF PLANS FOR A NEW PUBLIC LIBRARY AS SUBMITTED BY
MORRO BAY FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY - CASE NO. CUP 25-84 AND
CDP 42-84
Mike Multari reviewed this matter for Council stating that the
P lanning Commission had approved a Conditional Use Permit and
Coastal Development Permit for the new public library proposedfor
the corner of Shasta and Harbor. He reviewed the proposed lease
arrangements, offsite improvements, parking lot and the proposed
abandonment of the easterly five feet of the Shasta Avenue right-
of-way.
The Planning Commission had approved a 2 year extension on the
parking improvements which could be incorporated into the lease.
It was noted that staff was also recommending waiving building
permit and utility hookup fees, utility undergrounding
requirements and that Council direct City forces to prepare the
site at no cost to the Friends.
Mayor Shelton opened the matter to the public. Jane Bailey asked
about the water hookup fee and Mr. Napper stated that that fee
would also be waived.
Mayor Shelton returned the matter to Council. There was some
discussion regarding the undergrounding of utilities and Mr.
Nichols noted that it would be more economical to do a whole
section at once rather than just this area. Mrs. Bailey stated
t hat P.G.&E had contributed $300 to the library fund; nothing
from the telephone company.
Councilmember. Lemons asked if the County would be a party to the
lease and Mr. Napper stated that the lease would be between the
Friends and the City for the property only.
MOTION: Councilmember Zeuschner moved for approval of the staff
recommendation to approve the library proposal permits
with conditions and directed staff to prepare the lease
and abandonment of right-of-way documents for final
Council approval. The motion was seconded by
Councilmember Risley and unanimously carried by roll
call vote. (5-0)
A-3 GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT/COASTAL LAND USE PLAN AMENDMENT/ZONE
CHANGES - CASE NO. GPA/LUP/CZ i2-84
Mike Multari reviewed the four proposed amendments separately for

MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL
REGULAR MEETING - AUGUST 13, 1984
P AGE FOUR
Council consideration. Area A was to rezone from
N eighborhood/Service Commercial to District Commercial, property
along Quintana Road near the Safeway Store. The purpose of the
proposed change is to allow Burger King to apply for a CUP for a
fast food restaurant. In addition to approving this designation
and zone change, the Planning Commission recommended language to
be incorporated into the Land Use Plan.
Mayor Shelton opened the Area A matter to the Public. M'May
Diffley and Nancy Bast felt that a Burger King was inappropriate
at this location.
Mr. Martinez representing Burger King spoke in favor of the
application. He passed around a traffic survey prepared by
Thomas Montgomery. Mr. Multari noted that staff had not reviewed
t he traffic survey.
Roland Mattalina spoke on behalf of the property owner in favor
of the proposal. He stated that the property was zoned C-1 when
he had purchased it.
Councilmember Lemons had reservations about including financial
arrangements in the LUP. He felt that they belong in the
subdivision review recommendations.
Councilmember Risley was in favor of the proposal; he felt it was
an appropriate place for a Burger. King.
Councilmembers agreed with Councilmember Lemons' proposal to
eliminate the financial contribution arrangement from the
Resolution.
MOTION: Councilmember. Lemons moved that the change as proposed
be approved, but that the proposals 3.08 and 3.09 on
page two of Exhibit B be made part of the City
subdivision review policy rather than the LUP. The
motion was seconded by Councilmember Risley and unani-
mously carried by roll call vote. (5-0)
Area B was to adjust the zone line to R-2 from mixed uses for
specific property located at the SW corner of Montereya:nd Marina.
Mr. Multari stated that the Planning Commission had approved the
change.
Mayor. Shelton opened the Area B matter to the public; as there
were no comments, it was returned to the Council for considera-
t ion.
MOTION: Councilmember Lemons moved for approval of the staff
recommendation. The motion was seconded by Council-

member Risley and unanimously carried by roll call
vote. (5-0).
Area C was to continue the zoning transition along Main Street by
✓ ezoning to high density residential property facing Main Street
between Olive and Anchor and protect the residence/office
building in one location by adding an S.3 suffix precluding
future uses of that nature.
Mayor Shelton opened the Area C matter to the public. Mr. Novak
of Morro Bay Realty spoke in favor of the change. Nancy Bast and
Allen Estes asked questions to which Mr. Multari responded.
MOTION: Councilmember Zeuschner moved for approval of the
application as submitted. The motion was seconded by
Councilmember Lemons and unanimously carried by roll
call vote. (5-0)
Area D was to rezone from mixed use/waterfront to low/medium
density residential the above -bluff area along Main Street
between Acacia and Barlow Lane. The Planning Commission has
✓ ecommended approval of the rezoning and the Harbor Commission is
opposed to it as being a detriment to future commercial
waterfront business in the area.
Mayor Shelton opened the Area D matter to the public. Nancy Bast
spoke in opposition to the rezoning stating that the Harbor
Commission had offered six reasons why the zoning should remain
as it is.
Mr. Multari stated that the proposal allows residential
development above the bluff and commercial development below the
bluff. He also said that he does not anticipatemuch recycling
happening in the area; no indication that the character will
change.
Councilmembers generally felt that the Planning Commission
✓ ecommendation was the fairest one for all concerned.
MOTION: Mayor Shelton moved for approval of the Planning
Commission recommendation (Resolution No. 95-84 as
amended). The motion was seconded by Councilmember
Risley and unanimously carried by roll call vote. (5-0)
MOTION: Councilmember Zeuschner moved that Ordinance No. 262 be
read by title only. The motion was seconded by
Councilmember Lemons and unanimously carried. (5-0)
Mr. Napper read Ordinance No. 262 by title only.

MOTION: Councilmember Lemons moved that this constitute the
first reading of Ordinance No. 262. The motion was

carried by roll call vote. (5-0)
Councilmembers took a break at 9:54 p.m. and reconvened at 10:00
p.m.
Mayor Shelton called on Rose Marie Sheetz who wished to make an
announcement. Mrs. Sheetz introduced Patricia Babock Bailey who
is the new Chamber of Commerce manager.
A-4 REQUEST FOR SIGN EXCEPTION PERMIT TO ALLOW SIGNS DIRECTING
VISITORS TO OTTER HABITAT AREAS - CASE NO. SIGN EXCEPTION
02-84; DEAN TYLER, APPLICANT
Mr. Multari stated that Mr. Tyler was requesting a sign exception
t o allow signs directing people to the sea otter habitat areas.
The Planning Commission had recommended denial of the request
because it would set a precedent for permitting signs not related
t o the property it is located on, it would lead to visual
confusion and disarray and would encourage excessive signage and
"sign pollution." The Harbor Commission had recommended approval
of the application.
Mayor Shelton opened the matter to the public. Rose Marie
S heetz, representing the Chamber of Commerce, stated that the
Chamber Board had voted to go along with the proposal. She
stated that she was also speaking in favor of the application on
behalf of Dean Tyler. Mary Phillips spoke in favor of the
proposal.
MOTION: Councilmember Anderson moved that the public hearing be
closed. The motion was seconded by Councilmember
Zeuschner and unanimously carried. (5-0)
Mayor Shelton asked why this matter had not been scheduled as an
appeal to the Council. Mr. Multari stated that the request
requires Council approval of Planning Commission recommendations.
MOTION: Councilmember Zeuschner moved that Council add
condition number 15 to the list of conditions for
approval that "the signs be maintained in good repair
to the satisfaction of the Director or removed"; also
that Resolution No.97-84 be adopted with the attached
conditions. The motion ws seconded by Councilmember
Risley and unanimously carried by roll call vote. (5-0)

B. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
B-1 REPORT REGARDING 54H STREET ACCESS/REFUSE MATTER (PULLED)
Mr. Napper stated that staff had been unable to get the owners of
the VRM property to agree in writing on a proposal.
B-2 _WATER PROJECTS FOR FUNDING WITH STATE SAFE DRINKING WATER
LOAN
Mr. Napper reviewed the various available water projects eligible
for funding by the State's Safe Drinking Water Bond Act. He
✓ equested that Council provide project priority and funding for
continued improvement of the water system.
Councilmember Zeuschner felt that the water pipe replacement
should be the first priority in upgrading the City's water
system.
Councilmember Risley was disturbed because the whole focus is
toward the water pipes giving the impression that the City is
solving the water problem by giving money to the water pipes. He
illustrated on the blackboard the City's well levels in past
years and stated that the City will not solve the water problem
by throwing money at the water pipes. The focus should be on
averting disaster; no worthwhile alternatives were provided.
Councilmember Lemons agreed that replacing the water mains will
n ot solve the water problem; however, the water mains needed to
be replaced to insure proper fire protection for the citizens.
He felt that money also needed to be spent for percolation
basins. Councilmember Zeuschner was in hopes that the Water
Manager would be able to give the Council alternatives for
improving the City's water system.
MOTION: Councilmember Zeuschner moved that Council approve item
number one on page three of the staff report dated July
23, 1984 as the number one priority and authorize the
City Administrator to seek the Safe Drinking Water Act
funding to support item number one. The motion was
seconded by Councilman Anderson.
Ray Kaltenbach did not feel the City needed to borrow money just
to replace the water pipes.
Councilmember Risley stated that the total figure in item number
one is for $2,000,000. Mr. Napper said that the loan the City
will be applying for is for $1.4 million. Councilmember Risley
o bjected to the motion because he felt it would be throwing

resources at one phase of the problem which needs to be done but
ignores solving problems to avoid a crises.
Robert Lane stated that every time the City saves water, they
give it away by allowing water equivalencies. Mary Phillips
suggested that the City save the water running out of Chorro
Creek into the ocean.
Mayor Shelton was concerned about what would happen to the water
rates if the City applies for the loans. He felt that the matter
should be placed on the ballot for the people to decide.
The motion was carried on the following roll call vote:
AYES:
NOES:
Anderson, Lemons, Zeuschner
Risley, Shelton
MOTION: Councilmember Zeuschner moved that Council authorize
the City Administrator to seek out other sources of
funding that might be available for these projects and
bring the information back to the Council at his
earliest convenience. The motion was seconded by Coun-
cilmember. Lemons and unanimously carried. (5-0)
B-3 PARTICIPATION IN COASTAL CONSERVANCY URBAN WATERFRONT AREA
RESTORATION FINANCING PROGRAM
Mr. Napper recommended Council's formal authorization for staff
to coordinate a work program with the Conservancy staff towards
development of a plan eligible for CUWRFA approval.
MOTION: Councilmember Risley moved for adoption of Resolution
No. 91-84. The motion was seconded by Councilmember
Zeuschner and unanimously carried by roll call vote.
(5-0)
C. NEW BUSINESS
C-1 REQUEST BY HARBOR FESTIVAL COMMITTEE FOR ADVANCE PROMOTIONAL
FUNDING
Mr. Napper stated that the Harbor Festival Committee is
requesting funding in the amount of $2,000 for the October 13 and
14 celebration. He stated that the request and expenditures are
compatible with the Council's intent for Community Promotion
funds.
Bob Burke reviewed the plans for the Festival and stated that
they are planning increased advertising and will try to eliminate

the "swap meet" atmosphere created by last year's program. The
applicants involved in the Festival are being carefully screened
for the type of wares they are selling.
MOTION: Councilmember Lemons moved for approval of the request.
The motion was seconded by Councilmember Zeuschner and
unanimously carried by roll call vote. (5-0)
C-2 ACTION TO ENCOURAGE COASTAL CONSERVANCY AND STATE PARKS AND
RECREATION TO PURCHASE VRM PROPERTY
Councilmember Lemons stated that the Resolution encourages the
Coastal Conservancy and State to purchase the VRM propperty.
Councilmember Risley stated that he had mixed feelings about the
matter and that perhaps VRM had wanted this type of action all
along. Mayor Shelton stated that he felt the Resolution should
be adopted in any case.
MOTION: Councilmember Lemons moved for adoption of Resolution
No. 99-84. The motion was seconded by Councilmember
Anderson and unanimously carried by roll call vote.
(5-0)
C-3 CONSIDERATION OF OUTER CONTINENTAL SHELF LOCAL GOVERNMENT
COORDINATED PROGRAM
Mr. Napper stated that the County of Santa Cruz has requested
City participation and support for the Outer Continental Shelf
L ocal Government Coordination Program. They are requesting
funding in the amount of $1,000
Councilmember Lemons was interested in obtaining a list of those
participating in the program and to what extent. Council also
wanted to see a different way of apportioning contributions;
perhaps by population rather than a flat fee.
MOTION: Councilmember Lemons moved that Council approve parti-
cipation,but suggested participation be based on popu-
lation or some other such matter.. The motion was
seconded by Councilmember Risley and unanimously
carried by roll call vote. (5-0)
C-4 REPORT ON PROPERTY WEST OF VETERAN'S HALL
Steve Wolter reviewed the subject property and stated that it
currently lists at $215,000 with an assumable first trust deed of
$54,000. He discussed the potential long- and short-term uses of
t he property. He suggested Council take no action on purchasing
t he property until a long range use is identified for the
property.

MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL
REGULAR MEETING - AUGUST 13, 1984
PAGE TEN
Councilmember Zeuschner asked that Council actually take a walk-
through the property as he intends to bring this matter back for
re -consideration. He feels that the property has excellent
potential for the City and the City could possibly sell other
bits and pieces of property to pay for this site.
MOTION: Councilmember Risley moved that the matter be tabled.
The motion was seconded by Councilmember Lemons.
Mr. Wolter stated that the Parks and Recreation Commission will
be adopting the Parks and Recreation Plan and their number one
priority will be development of a community recreation center.
It might be a good time to reconsider this matter when the Plan
comes before Council, possibly in September.
The motion was unanimously carried. (5-0)
C-5 RE -CONSIDERATION OF CUSTODIAL SERVICES CONTRACT
Mr. Napper stated that staff has reassessed the custodial
services and the need to improve effectiveness in monitoring
facility rents and is recommending the creation of a Facility
Coordinator position responsible for custodial services and
facility rental in lieu of contracting the custodial services
out. Staff feels this will provide direct control of custodial
services, produce a savings on indirect costs by reducing the
Recreation Director's time to supervise the contract and reduce
the Recreation Department's need for part-time personnel services
for facility rental by $4,000. Staff estimates a net savings of
$581 over the present functions. He recommended Council approve
the establishment of a consolidated in-house custodial and
facility rental service effective September 17, 1984, create the
addition of a Facility Coordinator position to the classification
plan, and revise the FY 84-85 Budget accordingly.
MOTION: Councilmember Risley moved for approval of the staff
recommendation. The motion was seconded by Councilmem-
ber Zeuschner.
Randy Lawson of Coastal Carpet Cleaners who presently has the
City's contract for custodial services took exception to some of
the reasoning for changing the policy. He said that the City
originally went to contract custodial services to save money.
Mrs. Lawson was concerned about their business reputation and
that the City was not terminating services because of poor
service. Mayor. Shelton assured her that that was not a
consideration. Staff was making this recommendation because of
an opportunity to consolidate some City functions and save money
as well.

The motion was unanimously carried by roll call vote.
(5-0)
C-6 SEWER RATE MODIFICATION PROPOSAL
Mr. Napper stated that staff had researched questions raised on
the sewer rate structure regarding whether or not the sewer fee
can be incorporated into the rates, if all water users should be
charged the sewer flat fee and if laundries and car washes are
paying their fair share of the sewer fees. Staff was
recommending that Council direct staff to incorporate the sewer
fixed and minimum fees into one charge for billing purposes.
Brown and Caldwell indicate that car washes and laundries are
paying within the parametersset for the strength of discharge.
Water users not paying sewer fees are vacant land, construction,
yard meters for commercial accounts and another isolated case.
S taff feels that the fee should be charged for commercial yard
meters and a garage/workshop, but the remainder accounts not be
charged the fixed fee (vacant land, and construction sites) .
MOTION: Councilmember Zeuschner moved for approval of the staff
recommendation. The motion was seconded by Councilmem-
ber Lemons and unanimously carried. (5-0)
Councilmember Risley stated that there were inequities in the
rate structure. Single family residences were paying a
proportionately heavier cost than other categories. He suggested
t hat Council take a look at the rate structure next budget year
and attempt to correct the inequities.
C-7 CONTRACT FROM WATER RESOURCES FOR GRANT OF $4,300 FOR
CONDUCTING A WATER AUDIT
Mr. Napper stated that when the City received the contract for
t he $4,300 grant, staff discovered conditions imposed on the
funds which made the grant less desirable for the City to assume.
He outlined the conditions and suggested that Council decline the
g rant. He felt that with the Water Engineer, the City will be
able to conduct its own water audits and leak detections.
MOTION: Mayor Shelton moved that staff be directed to communi-
cate with the State thanking them for the opportunity
to take part in the grant, but communicate the City's
desire not to participate at this time and further that
staff continue to look for other grants. The motion
was seconded by Councilmember Risley and unanimously
carried by roll call vote. (5-0)
