PRIOR TO THE INCORPORATION OF MORRO BAY, TWO DIFFERENT PROPOSALS
FOR WATERFRONT LEASES WERE SUBMITTED TO THE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPER-
VISORS, WHO IN TURN BEGAN PROCESSING THEM THROUGH THE VARIOUS COUNTY
AGENCIES. UP TO THE DATE OF INCORPORATION, BOTH PROPOSALS HAD BEEN
TENTATIVELY APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION, ADMINISTRATIVE
OFFICE, AUTO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS, ALL PENDING FINAL APPROVAL BY THE
DISTRICT ATTORNEY. BY LAC', ON THE ACTUAL DATE OF INCORPORATION,
JULY 15, 1964, ADMINISTRATION OF THE WATERFRONT AREA PASSED FROM
THE COUNTY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO TO THE CITY OF MORRO BAY, SINCE SAID
AREA WAS WITHIN THE CITY BOUNDARIES. SINCE THAT TIME, OF COURSE,
NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAMI BY EITHER BODY AND IT IS MY FEELING THAT
THROUGH SOME COMBINED EFFORT OF THE TWO GROUPS, THAT A FINAL CON-
CLUSION FOR EACH PROPOSAL CAN BE OBTAINED. SHOWN HELOT! ARE THE
FACTS FOR EACH PROPOSAL TOGETHER WITH SUGGESTIONS FOR POSSIBLE
ACTION.
.
PROPOSAL NO. to
PROPOSAL DATED NNE 22 FROM GILBERT C. CRILL ASKED FOR
ADVERTISEMENT FOR BID OF NEW LEASE SITES 138 AND 139, FOR
THE PURPOSE OF AN ARCADE. THE PROPOSED BUILDING WAS TO BE
1500 SQUARE FEET AND CONFORM TO THE ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS
SET FOR MORRO BAY HARBOR. IT ALSO WAS TO CONFORM IN ARCHI-
TECTURE TO CRILL'S CONCESSION BUILDING AND THE HARBOR OFFICE,
AND CONSTRUCTION WAS TO BE COMPLETED BY DECEMBER 30, 1965.
THIS USE WAS TENTATIVELY APPROVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION,
FOR THE SITE NOW OCCUPIED BY CRILL'S CONCESSION BUILDING,
RATHER THAN ON SITES 138 AND 139. IT WAS THEIR CONTENTION,
HOWEVER,.THAT ARRANGEMENTS PROBABLY COULD BE WORM OUT FOR
- 2 -
THE USE ON THE SITES 138 AND 139. ACCORDING TO THE MASTER
PLAN FOR THE MORRO BAY AREA, A PUBLIC FACILITY IS TO BE CON-
STRUCTED SOMEWHERE IN THIS GENERAL AREA, AND IT WOULD BE
SIMPLY A MATTER OF DISCUSSION WITH THE PLANNING COMMISSION
TO DETERMINE THE EXACT LOCATION OF THIS FACILITY BEFORE THE
USE WAS APPROVED FOR SITES 138 AND 139. THIS DISCUSSION
SHOULD BE QUITE EASILY RESOLVED. IT SHOULD BE POINTED OUT
THAT LEASE SITES 138 AND 139 ARE LOCATED ON THE NORTH
EMBARCADERO AREA AND ARE IN NO WAY CONNECTED WITH ANY SITES
NOW INVOLVED IN LITIGATION.
SUGGESTION FOR SOLUTION FOR PROPOSAL 170. 1.
CITY COUNCIL SHOULD WRITE A MTER OF REQUEST TO THE BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS ASKING THAT THEY CONTINUE THE PROCESSING OF
THIS PROPOSAL UNDER THE HEADING OF "NORMAL SERVICE".
PROPOSAL N0. 2.
PROPOSAL DATED JULY 1 FROM REGAL SEA FOOD COMPANY, MONTEREY,
CALIFORNIA, ASKED FOR ADVERTISEMENT FOR BID OF NEW LEASE SITES
129-W, 130-W, 131-W, and 132-V'J, AND PURCHASE OF THE PIER KNOWN
AS THE GRCICH LEASE. THE PROPOSAL ASKED FOR A MINIMUM BID OF
SIX PERCENT OF THE APPRAISED VALUE OF THE GROUND, AND ALSO
ASKED THAT THE COUNTY OFFER THE EXISTING DOCK, APPROXIMATELY
200 FEET LONG AND SITUATED ON THE SAID LEASE SITES FOR A MINI-
MUM BID OF $3,000.00. PROPOSED WAS A LEASE TERM OF TWENTY
YEARS TO COVER THE COST OF THE DOCK AND THE APPROXIMATELY
ffi19,000.00 NECESSARY TO REBUILD THE DOCK TO SAFE CONDITION
AND THE APPURTENANT EQUIPMENT REQUIRED TO OPERATE A FISH

BUSINESS. GILBERT C. CRILL APPEARED BEFORE THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS AT THE TIME OF THIS PROPOSAL ACTING AS TEMPORARY
BUSINESS AGENT OF THE MORRO BAY AREA FOR REGAL SEA FOOD COM-
PANY. ALL AGENCIES OF THE COUNTY HAD APPROVED THE PROPOSAL
AND IT aWAITS ONLY THE APPROVAL OF THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY FOR
ADVERTISEMENT FOR BID.
SUGGESTION FOR SOLUTION FOR PROPOSAL NO. 2.
CITY COUNCIL SHOULD WRITE A LETTER OF REQUEST TO THE BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS ASKING THAT THEY CONTINUE THE PROCESSING OF
THIS PROPOSAL UNDER THE HEADING OF "NORMAL SERVICE".
SUMMARY
I FEEL THAT THE WATERFRONT AREA, AND IN PARTICULAR THESE
TWO ITEMS, CAN BE HANDLED THROUGH THE COMBINED EFFORTS OF
THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE VARIOUS COUNTY DEPARTMENTS FOR A
SHORT TIME IN MUCH THE SAME MANNER AS THE SPECIAL DISTRICTS
ARE BEING HANDLED. HOWEVER, DUE TO THE SCOPE AND NULMOUS
DIFFICULTIES INVOLVED IN THE TRANSFER OF ADMINISTRATION FROM
THE COUNTY TO THE CITY OF THIS AREA, I WOULD SUGGEST THE
IMMEDIATE APPOINTMENT OF A COUNCIL MEMBER TO FORMULATE A
TEMPORARY COMMITTEE OF WATERFRONT LEASE -HOLDERS, WHICH
COMMITTEE WOULD BE OF TREMENDOUS SERVICE IN SUPERVISING
THE ORDERLY TRANSITION OF THIS AREA; AND WHICH AT THE SAME
TIME COULD WORK MOST EFFECTIVELY AS A SMALL UNIT WITH THE
VARIOUS COUNTY DEPARTMENTS AND THE PRESENT HARBOR MANAGER,
MR., KIN JENKINS.
- 4. -
AS A SMALL UNIT THIS, COMMITTEE COULD MOST EASILY COORDINATE
EFFORTS TO CONTINUE THE PRESENT WELL PHASED GROWTH OF THIS
AREA AND KMIP THE BULK OF THE PROBLEMS RESOLVED WITHOUT THE,
FULL, COUNCILIS TIME BEING NEEDED.

1. We would attend all City Council meetings. It is our under-
standing that you wish only occasional attendance at the City Planning
Commission meetings, which we would attend on a request basis.
2. We would be available by telephone or by office consultation to
consider questions and problems submitted by you with respect to various
municipal problems, including those relating to zoning. In addition,
we would prepare contracts and ordinances.
3. We request a monthly compensation of $500. 00 for the initial
six months, which probably would include the bulk of the major reorgani-
zation for the City, and which would also include establishing procedure
and protocol with respect to legal documents and assistance on City
matters from us, as City Attorney. We suggest that the fee thereafter
be $350. 00 per month. This schedule would be subject to continuous
informal and periodic formal re-evaluation by you, as well as by this
firm. Extraordinary work, however, would require extra compensation,
including fees and costs. For example, there would be an extra charge
for court and administrative tribunal proceedings. We would charge
you the standard San Luis Obispo County Minimum Bar Fees for. such
matters, including preparatory time in adversary proceedings. All costs
of filing would be borne by the City. Mileage and toll calls, however,
would be at the expense of our firm.
4. To serve you, one or more of our secretaries is available from
8:00 a. m. to 5:00 p. m, daily, Monday through Friday, including the noon
hour, for messages, in the event either my associate or myself is unavailable.
Generally, there is an attorney in the office to accomodate you on Saturdays,
or at least a secretary available for messages.
M

City Council of Morro Bay - 2 - August 4, 1964
5. This relationship would be terminable by either party upon
thirty (30) days prior written notice.
We believe that we can serve you well, and we would like
to have the privilege and opportunity of doing so. With the benefit of
our experience representing various governmental entities, private
and public corporations, and individuals, we believe that we can
effectively serve you. As your Attorney, we could be of particular
value to you in making the change from an unincorporated area into
an incorporated City. The privilege of serving with the first Council
in this organization of the City is highly valued by us .
A proposal for a written contract, if one is desired, will
be submitted upon request. However, if a more detailed contract is
not requested, this letter, if satisfactory to you, will become the
basis of our working relationship.
If you have any questions or comments, I would be pleased
to discuss them with you, either by telephone or by personal interview.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Yours very truly, /

RESOLUTION NO. 4L
BE IT RESOLVED by the City of Morro Bay in Council
duly assembled,
That whereas it is presently proposed by the San Luis
Obispo County Committee on School District Organisation that the
Morro Union School District be merged with the San Luis Obispo
City School District, and certain others; And whereas the
City Council of the City of Morro Bay strongly feels that such
unification of the Morro Union School District with the San Luis
Obispo City School District, and certain others, is inimical to
the best interests of the City of Morro Bay, and of adjacent school
districts for the following reasons, to wit:
1. Said unification will, by reason of summary removal
from control of dedicated school trustees, devoted
to the local community and to its inhabitants,
gradually result in a diminished quality of local
education.
2., Said unification will cast upon the local community
an unfair increase in taxation, without any benefit
whatsoever,in increased quality of local education.
3. Said unification is unreasonable and mandatory in
depriving the City of Morro Bay fair and proper
control of its schools --an area of the most vital
interest to said community.
NOW, THEREFORE, be it officially resolved that the City
of Morro Bay does hereby OPPOSE uncontrovertably the merger and
unification of the Morro Union Elementary School.District into
tie San Luis Obispo City and San Luis Obispo Elementary districts,
and others, as proposed by earlier tentative recommendations of
the augmented county committee on school district organization.
Resolved this August 7, 1964.
For Resolution: Paul Bowen; Vernon Crass; William Paine;
Chester -Zinn; Mayor Jack Surfluh.
Opposed: None.

Gentlemen:
The San Luis Obispo County Planning Commission would like to
take this opportunity to congratulate the people of Morro Bay and
their newly elected Council on the incorporation of the City of
Morro Bay.
We wish to express our greatest hope that the success of the
incorporation and the unified attitude of the people will carry
through into the future administration. We wish you the greatest
amount of success and offer our cooperation and encouragement
hereafter.
Unless you have other plans, the Planning Commission will
continue to accept requests and formulate recommendations to the
Council on rezonings, variances and conditional use permits and
tentative subdivisions until the Council acts to appoint a City
Planning Commission and thereby relieves the County Planning
Commission of their responsibility.
Pursuant to the Government Code the Planning Department will
continue to process and administer all ordinances adopted by the
City until June 30, 1965, unless the Council requests that this
service be discontinued sooner. The Council may desire to continue
services with the County beyond the fiscal year and if such
arrangements are desired, negotiations with the Board of Supervisors
may be made at a later time.
In any event, the Planning Department stands willing to offer
their services upon call of the Council. We hope this will be
satisfactory.
Good luck!

Recorded by Q /,Z, Temporary City Clerk, Morro Bay
REPORT ON HIRING PROCEDURES AND QUALIFICATIONS FOR CITY CLERK
METHOD OF HIRING:
1..Advertise job opening in local newspapers, L. A. Times, San
Francisco Chronicle, Fresno Bee and Western City magazine for
two weeks.
2. When letter indicating interest in applying for the job arrive,
send the person an official application blank. Ask that these
forms be returned by a specified date.
3. Appoint a screening committee whos function it would be to
screen.the applications and recommend 4 or 5 applicants for
interviewing by the Council. Suggested screening committee:
SLO City Clerk, SLO City Manager, Arroyo Grande City Adminis -
trator, one Morro Bay Councilman.
4. Morro Bay Council should most with the screening committee
to get help in planning the questions for the interviews: It
is important to check on references. prior to the interview.
5. Official hiring should take place at a regular Council meeting
after thorough investigation of the applicant's background.
In speaking with various City Officials, I find that there are at
least two possibilities for this job: City Clerk or City Clerk
Administrator.
CITY CLERK
Salary: $613 to $782
Experience: Two or three years for increasingly responsible
clerical experience.
Education: Equivalent to high school, preferably including
additional college level secretarial courses.
CITY CLERK ADMINISTRATOR
Salary: $746 to $925 (Paso Robles Salary).
Experience: Four years in City government or similar work
Education: Bachelors degree in business or public administration
or equivalent.
Either.job would require that the person have some knowledge of city
codes, parliamentary procedure, editing the minutes and agenda,
finance, public relations and office management.
The City Clerk Administrator should have administrative leadership,
he knows the status of his city finance, personnel and projects. He
prepares the budget, submits regular reports to the Council on all
phases of City government. He would be the Chief administrative
officer and would be responsible to the Council for proper administra=
tion of the City.
A City Clerk could not be expected to have as much knowledge or
administrative experience as an Administrator:
I recommend that the Council consider hiring a City Clerk Administrator.
It would cost more, but I feel that it would be a good investment if ,.
we are careful in seledting the right person for the job.

OLD BUSINESS
1. The 4% Hotel and Motel Tax Public Hearing: The question is
who will impose the tax, the City or the State. If the City
imposes the tax before the State does (which will probably
take place in a couple of years) the City may have more of a
chance to receive all or a part of the tax when the whole state
is required to charge a bed tax. The money received from the
tax would go for advancing tourism and to benefit the Community
and the Motels. The tax would be on licensed hotels and motels.
Mr. Zinn motioned that the 4% bed tax be studied for at least
two weeks and then brought back to the Council. Mr. Payne
seconded the motion. Carried unanimously.
2. Dredging: Mr. Kardel'suggested that this be a public hearing.
Mayor Surfluh opened the meeting to the public. Mr. Bolz,
who is running for U. S. Congress, spoke to the Council and
audience. Mr. Bolz encouraged the Council to accept the
dredge proposal. He made an offer which will be attached to
and become a part of these minutes.

Recorded By:
Joyce Johnson
Interim City Clerk
Morro Bay, California
OFFER MADE BY MR. BOLZ:
"If I have the good fortune to go to the Congress in the United
States, I shall be glad to sponser a bill to reimburse or to
pick up the tab of this 24,000 dollars by the Federal Government
instead of leaving it to the local citizenry or to the City of
Morro Bay to do. This is not something that has been done often
in the United States history, but I've been intouch with Washington
and I understand that there are at least some precedence of the
Federal Government coming in and retroactively picking up the tab
for an anchorage where the local citizens have had the vision and
t he prudence and the wisdom and the good sense to get a bargain.
It seems to me that this situation may turn out to fit all those
criteria. In any event you may be sure that if I do go to the
Congress of the United States, I'll be glad to undertake to
introduce such a bill,to press it with my fried Senator Salinger
to get it thru the Senate, to work with Congressman McFall of the
14th District who is a member of the House Public Works Committee
and you can be sure that there will be strong and powerful
shoulders behind the wheel to try to get this through. I couldn't
promise passage, but I will promise you good faith implementation
of my promise. And you may be very sure that to the extent of
my dedication and ability, I'll do everything I can in the Congress
of the United States to see to it that this longer term project of
the channel in the South Bay is something that can be expedited and
be a matter of reality in something less than seven years."

1. Mr. Crass moved that the entire meeting be recorded as a
temporary aid for the Clerk. Mr. Bowen seconded the motion.
Carried unanimously.
2. Pennington Creek Report - Mr. Born introduced Mr. Merson, a
representative from Cal Poly. It was stated that Cal Poly filed
an application on November 27, 1963 requesting the impoundment
and use of surplus water from Pennington Creek for use in the
farming operations of the College on lands east of the college
on Federal government and state lands. This is unappropriated
winter run off water which ordinarly runs to the sea, and which
they plan to store for use in the irrigation program of the
agriculture project of the college. It has been estimated,
Pennington Creek probably contributes less then one seventh of
the recharge to the Chorro ground water reservoir. Not all
of the City's water comes from Chorro basin so the creek in
question probably contributes considerablyeless than one
seventh of the City's total requirements.
Notice of application for deferrment dated June 12, will expire
September 20, 1964.
Mayor Surfluh moved that the City Attorney be directed to
investigate fully the application by Cal Poly for diverting
flood waters from Pennington Creek. Mr. Zinn seconded the motion.
Carried unanimously.

has on deposit the sum of $24,000, deposited by Mr. and Mrs. Monte
Young to be paid3,either to the City of Morro Bay or to Willamette
Tug and Barge Company as is required. "We would appreciate
your advising us of the amount to be paid, to whom to be paid,
and when payment should be made. No interest is payable until
the funds are dispersed by us. Thus in the interest of economy,
payment should be delayed as long as possible." Letter was

referred to the City Attorney. The local subscriptions that were
raised are on deposit locally in Morro Bay and will be turned over
to whoever the money is to be paid upon demand.
Mr. Zinn was 'informed by Mr. McIntire that since the Council was
authorizing the dredging they should look into competitive
bidding which they are required to do. Mr. Zinn made the following
statements which are to be included in the minutes of this
meeting. "I contacted the Gold Hill Dredging Company of San
Francisco. I contacted the Pacific Dredging Company, 7844'East
Rose Crans Avenue in Paramount California, I contacted the Utah
Construction and Mining Company at 550 California Street in San
Francisco, 4. All three of these Dredging Companys said they
would be unable to give a competive bid due to the fact that a
dredging company presently is on location and they couldn't begin
to give a price below that which has been offered us."
MINUTES - PAGE 5 - City Council Meeting
September 15, 1964
Mr. Zinn brought up the subject of inspection fees for the
harbor dredging. We have been given a figure of $15 per day
for a maximum of ten days amounting to $150.00. It could
also be on a basis of $12 per day for a six day minimum amounting
to $72. Mr. Payne read from Mr. Spellacy's report: "The extra
cost to the City by the Corps of Engineers for W inspection
could and should be eliminated by doing our own inspection.
We have Mr. Taylor, Mr. Jenkins, and myself (Mr. Spellacy)
who are perfectly capable of doing this and soundings will
be made anyway by the dredging Company, so we feel that this
would be an unnecessary cost. Mr. Taylor is working this
out with the Corps of Engineers." However; it is the consensus y
of the Council that it would be best to authorize the Corps 5
of Engineers to do inspecting.
Motion was made by Mr. Zinn to authorize the Mayor to sign
the contract with Willamette Tug and Barge Company for the
harbor dredging. Mr. Bowen seconded. Carried unanimously.
Mr. Bowen informed the Council of a meeting of the Unruh
Committee on Tide and Submerged Land. Meeting to be held
in Anaheim. Mr. Bowen moved that Mr. Zinn be appointed to
represent the Council at said meeting. Mayor Surfluh seconded.
Carried unanimously.
12. Appointment of City Planning Commission. Mr. Payne requested
a short executive session. Mayor Surfluh moved that the meeting
be adjourned until the next regular meeting on Tuesday, September
22, 1964, at the same time and location. Seconded by Mr. Zinn.
Carried unanimously. Meeting adjourned at 10:00 P. M.

that the District Attorney had not rendered his oppinion

park in question. The County admits ownership. No
petition has been filed with the County at this time

b. Meeting with Board of Supervisors re: Tidelands.
Mr. Kardel stated relative to said meeting, to wit:
It was agreed that the responsibility for administration
and policing of the harbor area is that of the County's
through the end of the current fiscal year, June 30, 1965•
The Council was advised by the City Attorney that ownership
of the Tidelands is now held by the County. The Board of
Supervisors appeared to concur, while insisting that the
City has an equitable ownership interest necessitating
certain City action before the County will continue to
grant leases or renew leases on the Tideland area. Legally
the City Council is convinced that no action on its part
is necessary. Within the contex of this meeting it appears
that the Council can expidite the matter of the execution
of leases and continuation of the business on the waterfront
without unduly prejudicing its legal opinion.
Action taken: Appointment by the Baord of Supervisors of
two members of the Board, Mr. Borradori and Mr. Kimball,
to work with Councilmen, Bowen and Zinn, in all harbor mat-
ters. Mayor Surfluh emphasized that the City will take
action when it has sufficient facts to enable the Council
to make an intelligent and fair decision in regards to all
matters pertaining to the harbor. And that the Council's
position is to enable businessmen on the waterfront to

HEARINGS
I. Electric Franchise, PG&E
Mayor Surfluh announced that RESOLUTION NO. 36-64 had been
adopted and advertised in accordance.with law and any
protests to the granting of this franchise would now be
heard. There being no protests, Mr. White, City Clerk, was
instructed to give the first reading of the Ordinance, with
the.seoond.reading to be heard at the Council meeting of
November 10, 1964.
2. Business License Tax
Mayor Surfluh declared the meeting open for public discus-
sion on the subject of business license tax. Judge Fred
Schenk, introduced as the representative of the Businessmen's
Committee of the Chamber of Commerce, spoke at some length on
the matter. Speaking for the businessmen, he felt that in
view of the assessed valuation of the City of Morro Bay a
regulatory rather than a revenue tax was preferable to
maintain orderly control; that the County ordinance had been
raven workable; that the amount of $4.00 semi-annually,
8.00 annually, was a fair fee; and that a high license fee
would be an unfair burden on the business men in the absence
of any need for such a revenue producing tax. Remarks from
the floor concurred. Each council member spoke and it was
the consensus of opinion that the tax would be regulatory,
that the hearing had been called expressly to learn the
views of the business men in order better to serve them. Mr.
Crass stated that one ordinance had been drawn up which had
revealed the necessity for further study to determine the type
of ordinance needed, to be certain it benefited all of Morro
Bay's citizens and protected the businessmen.

MINUTES - City Council Meeting
October 27, 1964
Flat rates were considered inequitable, gross receipts too
personal, and net receipts difficult to enforce due to lack
of cooperation. Number of employees as a tax basis was also
mentioned, and size of tax in relation to size of business.
Mayor Surfluh stated that an ordinance would be prepared in
finalized form for the agenda of November 24, 1964.
Mr. Payne moved to refer the matter to committee to be
studied further, written up, and presented at the next
regular meeting by Mr. Crass. There was no second.
Asked by Judge Schenk for his thinking on this matter, Mr.
Crass stated in part that it would be necessary for him to
discuss the matter with a contractor, not present at the
meeting, and to give it further thought, but that he would
come to the next regular meeting prepared to present an
ordinance whichhe felt would meet the needs of the situation
a tax regulatory in nature, not damaging to the local business
men, but inoluding the transient business.

Harbor Manager, to give a dredging report. Mr. Jenkins

would be necessary to take two sweeps of the area and a
portion of a third.
Mr. Payne inquired about the Morro Rook Road, and Mr.
Jenkins advised that opening of the road had been delayed

MINUTES - City Council Meeting
October 27, 1964
Improvement District on South Street and indicated they
would pay their portion of the work.
Both Mr. Spellacy and Mr. Taylor had talked to Mr.
Freeman, the other owner involved, and had given him a
copy of the petition. He wished to study the petition
before signing. Since he preferred a bond issue, however,
no final answer had ,vet been received. Mr. Taylor assured
the Council there would be. very little change in the grade --
no more than a couple of feet. The eastmost garage could
be used only for storage. At present there was no firm
commitment.
66th Street
Mr. Taylor reported that the Division of Highways would
consider the drainage pipe over their right of way, but
would prefer a portion to be on PG&E, and the latter had
not objected when approached. York will be continued by
the Public Yorks Department to resolve the matter.
Regarding abandonment of access right of way to Morro
Development Company, the City had not yet received a
quit claim deed from the County so City had not been able
to do anything.
After lengthy discussion by Council, Mr. Payne moved that
the Council instruct their attorney to make up a new
resolution with regard to parcel 4, which should be
written to comply with the City Engineer's recommendations.
There being no second, Mr. Payne withdrew his motion.
Due to the urgency of the matter, Mr. White requested that the
matter be expedited if possible. Mr. Kardel stated that the
proper action would be to request the City Attorney to prepare
the necessary resolution. A resolution was presented for
Council consideration, directing the City Attorney to prepare
the necessary documents to accomplish the conveyance of that
portion of Parcel 4 that is directly in front of Morro
Development Company property to said Company on the conditions
as set forth in RESOLUTION NO. 54-64, and authorizing the
Mayor to execute such documents when so advised by the City
Attorney.

they prepare necessary papers to request U.S. Corps of
Army Engineers to make a flood control study at the mouth
of Morro Creek, and at the same time, Chorro Creek, in an
effort to get both of them on the Federal grant. he had
investigated temporary flood control measures, costs, etc

be contacted. He expected to have more information to
submit to the Council at the meeting of November 10. 1964.
D. Report on San Inis Obispo County Water Resources
Advisory Committee Meeting
Mr. Spellacy reported that he and Mr. Crass were guests
at the October 21 meeting in San Luis Obispo. Problems
discussed largely involved legal aspects of the formation
of a county -wide water agency. Also the possibility of
county water agency under a governing body separate from
the Board of Supervisors. Mr. James Powell, District
Attorney, promised to give a written legal opinion on
various questions raised. Mayor Barney Schwartz was not
in favor of the county -wide, plan, feeling the zone plan
to be better. Mr. Spellacy stated that some progress in
getting facts and figures was being made. Minutes of the
meeting would be made available later.
Howard Eytoheson complained of a parking problem in front of
his store, which was causing loss of business, and asked for
relief from the'Council. The Councilmen promised to do
everything possible to get.a zone parking sign up without
further delay.
Councilman Bowen brought up the licensing of electric golf
carts. The.matter was referred to the City Attorney after
some discussion, to investigate the feasibility of passinga
resolution permitting electric golf carts to be driven from
home to the golf course and return without licensing. A
legal opinion.from.the-.City_Attorney was requested for the
meeting of November 10, 1964.
Councilman Zinn placed before the.Council the problem still
confronting,Moose Lodge. The Benedict building was moved to
lodge property but..vas not.to be placed on its foundation
without several weeks additional delay due to legal.procedures
required by County ordinance. The Lodge, faced with a
December regional meeting, is requesting help from council.
The Lodge has agreed to do any footwork necessary to expedite
the matter, in the event those concerned have to sign a waive
of right to protest.
MOTION: Mr. Zinn moved that the Council authorize the
issuance of a Use Permit in the event that the
legal requirements.of the ordinance can be
satisfied through a procedure other than, for
example, going through the formal hearing
process, such as filing of consent by the people
legally affected. Seconded by Mr. Bowen. Carried
unanimously. ..

City Council Meeting
November 10, 1964
At this point there was some discussion among Council members
and from Judge Fred Schenk, representing local businessmen,
as to whether or not there should be a first reading at this
time. Judge Schenk requested that the Council make known the
contents of the ordinance prior to a formal reading and prior
to consideration for enactment. However, the Council felt
that the ordinance expressed what the people had requested at
the previous hearings - that it was a good ordinance in that
it had been adjusted to fit the community's needs. Mayor
Surfluh finally stated that the ordinance would be read and
a hearing would be allowed following the reading.
ORDINANCE NO 10
AN ORDINANCE CREATING TITLE VI TO THE MORRO BAY MUNICIPAL CODE,
LICENSING THE TRANSACTION.AND CARRYING ON OF CERTAIN BUSINESSES,
TRADES, PROFESSIONS, CALLINGS AND OCCUPATIONS IN.THE CITY OF
MORRO BAY
Mr. White read the ordinance in its entirety.
The Councilmen were highly commended for the excellence of
the ordinance. Judge Schenk expressed his pleasure with the
measure. Questions from the floor were answered. Councilman
Zinn raised the question on Sub -title 6206, Public Utilities,
of a possible inequity for the Public Utility Company paying
franchise to a city in the possible amount of $11
500 while
another utility company would pay a license fee of $50.00. It
was brought out that by the 1937 Franchise Act telephone
companies were excluded from paying franchise tax to cities,
however, legislation is pending to include telephone companies
for one percent of gross receipts. It was stated that if the
ordinance was to stay regulatory it could not get into a tax
based on gross receipts. Mr. Zinn also questioned criminal
penalty and was assured that this was covered in an earlier code
referred to in the ordinance.
Mr. Bloise of PG&E asked that the exemption indicated under the
fee section of the ordinance also be included under the exemption
section.. Mr. McIntyre, one of the City Attorneys, said that
while a business could be exempt from paying the fee, no business-
man was exempt from making application. Mr. Bloise requested
that PG&E's attorney be given an opportunity to confer with
the Councilmen concerning the matter.
It was then noted that this had not been a first reading since
not so stated. Mr. McIntyre advised that there would be no
legal objection to a motion being made referring to the ordinance
read a few minutes ago.
MOTION: Mr: Crass moved that ORDINANCE NO. 10, read about five
minutes ago, be construed as the first reading, and
at the meeting two weeks hence, a second reading be
made by title only, upon approval by unanimous vote.
Seconded by Mr. Zinn. Roll call vote: Carried
unanimously..

City.Council Meeting
November 10, 1964
Mr. White stated that the City had not as yet received a
notice of 100% completion of the dredging from Willamette.
Certain items have not as yet been completed. Notification
of Completion has been prepared by City Attorneys, and the
matter would be taken up at the meeting of November 24. 1964.
b. Leases
(1) Regal Sea Food - Use Permit and Lease.
Mr. Zinn stated that the Use Permit had been approved by
the Council at the last meeting, but there was a request
that had been overlooked during the review and approving
of the Use Permit. Some months ago Regal Sea Food had
requested that the Greieh Dock be put up for public bid
for lease and no notion was taken by the County, and none
by the Council, and they requested that the matter be put
back on the agenda to reach some determination. Their one
fish ladder was inadequate, and since there was room for
two, they wished to install another. However, the dock
needed considerable repair work. If Council was in agree-
ment, it could be opened for public bid.
There was some discussion by the Councilmen and from the
floor on various aspects of the matter -- renovating the
dock to code standards, use of dock, whether it should be
restricted to commercial fishing or other businesses be
allowed on it. Mr. Crill stated that Regal was ready to
go ahead as soon as the albacore season was over, which
would be in about one month.
Mr. Jenkins, Harbor Manager, explained how the'County
handled bids.. Uses were specified in the announcement of
bids, bids were sealed, but upon opening, oral bids were
allowed from the floor provided that they must exceed by
5% the previous high bid.
Mr. Crill said that under the Moffatt and Nichol survey,
this particular area had been set up for commercial use,
and according to lease policy the county allows a term of
one year for each $1,000 invested.
Mr. Borradori stated that the County would be more than
willing to advertise the site for bid if the Council wished
but wouldbe reluctant to act unless they had a recommenda-
tion from the Council.
Hr. McIntyre reminded the Council that according to procedure
the fact finding commission should investigate the matter
and present their findings to the Council. A motion could
be made instructing the City Attorney to prepare a resolution
requesting the County to advertise for lease, if this' should
be the Councilts desire, and recommend to the County certain
provisions of this advertisement. He mentioned a letter
sent to the Council by the Attorney recommending various
items of information which ought to be determined prior to
Council's recommendation. Mr. McIntyre suggested that the
matter be referred to the fact finding committee. It was
agreed that Mr. Zinn would meet with Mr. Crill.
(2) Yocum Lease - 88 and 86-W
Page 4

City Council Meeting
November 10, 1964
Mr. Zinn stated that this item was referred to City Attorney
at the previous meeting. It was agreed that this matter
was in the same category as b. (1) above, and Mr. McIntyre
recommended that the same procedure be adopted. Mayor
Surfluh ordered the matter referred to committee and Judge
Schenk, Attorney for Mr. Yocum, asked that he be included
in any conference concerning Mr. Yocum before any action
was taken by the Council
(3) Carver Lease - South T Pier.
This was placed in same category with matters above, and
was referred to committee. Mr. McIntyre mentioned that
this matter had a considerable history, as indicated by
harbor files, but that further study would be made and he
would come up with a report for the meeting of November 24,
1964.
e. Permit for structure on Navigable Waters. Report from
Committee.
Mr. Zinn said that two requests had been received, one from
Mr. Yocum and one from Harbor Hut, that they would like to
construct boat slips perpendicular to shoreline. They now
have boats docked parallel to shore and are not getting
space to dock enough boats. By putting slips perpendicular,
boats could be docked on both.sides. He recommended
approval of the boat slips and a request that the City
Attorney draw up the necessary resolution to request the
County Planning Commission's approval.
Mr. McIntyre advised that granting of permit is govern-
mental function which is properly that of the City, but
the procedure set forth in code granting such permits is
very elaborate and one of the most important demands is a
public hearing wherein persons concerned must be notified
at a certain time prior to granting permit. There was
considerable objection from the floor to perpendicular
construction of boat slips.
Mr. Jenkins.stated that acquisition of the U.S. Army
Engineers' permit for structures upon navigable waters was
of prime importance and should be done prior to any other
action being taken, and that it takes from eight to ten
weeks to process the permit. He also stated that it was
the recommendation of the army engineers that construction
of bulkhead and pier head lines not take place until after
the Review of Reports. Mayor Surfluh suggested the matter
be referred to committee and the City Attorney to resolve.
Mr. McIntyre requested that he be allowed to prepare a
letter to Council summarizing for the Council what is
involved in this matter.
d. Moose Lodge Use Permit - Report from City Attorney.
Mr. McIntyre reported that in compliance with
ddirective looked into
from Council at the previous meeting, y
matter of relocation of Moose Lodge building and had
Page 5

intended to contact Council by letter but work load had
prevented. He reported that the County Planning Commission
would rule on the matter at its next regular meeting,
Thursday, November 12th. None of the suggestions made at
the previous Council meeting bad to be used since they
would not hasten the matter. Final disposition would take
place at the Planning Commission meeting, barring continu-
ance of meeting, and final recommendations should be
available for the Council meeting of November 24, 1964.
He mentioned that all persons owning property within 300
feet of the outside boundaries of the property have the
right to protest at the Planning meeting and that these
persons had all been notified by the County.
Golf Carts. Report from City Attorney.
Mr. McIntyre stated that the licensing of vehicles is a
State function and established pretty definitely by State
code. City streets are included, as well as any other
streets, in licensing vehicles; and in addition, traffic
control is a State not a municipal act. Mr. Bowen accepted
this edict reluctantly.

1. Report on Excess Lands available for purchase from Division of
Highways.
Mr. White read a communication from Division of Highways to
Department of Public Works, District 5, San Luis Obispo, dated
October 26, 1964, covering maps showing State-owned lands and
indicating certain parcels of land suitable and required for
City purposes. They were to be offered at public auction, but
Mr. White recommended that until further information could be
obtained from Division of Highways, the matter be deferred until
meeting of November 24. 1964.
Proposed Purchase of Parcel for Street use on Las Tunas Avenue.
Mr. White read a letter to Department of Public Works, dated
September 29, 1964, which included a map of State-owned property —
700 square feet presently being used by County. The entire
parcel was to be sold at public auction. Estimated value $300.
A second letter was read by Mr. White. It was addressed to City
of Morro Bay from Department of Public Works, and dated November 2,
1964. It called Council's attention to letter received by County
from Division of Highways concerning triangular parcel of land
on which County -built road has operated under an encroachment
permit, but which was now City property. Mr. White felt that it
should be purchased by the City to prevent purchase by a private
party. The property lies on Las Tunas Avenue adjacent to Sproutz-
Reitz and Security First National.Bank. In line with this, the
City Attorney had prepared a resolution.

3A Agreement
Matter of Whale Rock Water Agreement with Waterworks District
No. 2.
Mr. White stated that the City Attorney's office had suggested
a particular course of action. He invited Mr. McIntyre to
explain the agreement. Mr. McIntyre had examined the document
and stated that it was an agreement between the County of San
Luis Obispo, Waterworks District No. 2, the Whale Rock Commis-
sion and the City of San Luis Obispo providing for use of
water and the agreement also provides that the agreement is
assignable from Waterworks District No. 2 to the City of Morro
Bay upon acceptance of terms of this agreement by City of Morro
Bay. Waterworks District No. 2 will be officially dissolved
as authorized by resolution tonight, when quit claim deed is
recorded in County Recorder's office. In order to have the
transfer of assignment go smoothly and to have City on record
as accepting the terms and conditions, all that is required is
a motion by Councilmen moving that the terms and conditions
of agreement be accepted upon fulfillment of terms set forth.
MOTION: Mayor Surfluh moved that the City Council accept the
terms and conditions of the agreement dated May 12, 1964,

Construction Company, second - C. Norman Peterson, and third
Allied Construction Company. Mr. White then read the names
of sub -contracting companies and equipment suppliers.
Proposals - Electronic data processing
Mr. White listed names of data processing figs available to
take care of metered billing for the Water Department. It wa:
felt because the City was new and not yet firmed up as to
personnel or policy, and no expensive billing equipment yet
purchased, now was the time to get started with the data
processing. After considerable investigation, it was con-
cluded that a banking organization would best serve Morro Bay.
Proposals were requested -and received from three banks -
Bank of America, Crocker -Citizens and Security First Nationaly
Mr. White recommended Bank of America whose total cost was
$469.00 as against $539 for Security First National and $470
for Crooker-Citizens. In addition, the terms of the contract
more nearly met the requirements of the City, having a
cancellation clause requiring only sixty days written notice.
Investigation had also been made of the possibility of the
Bank of America also handling payrolls eventually. The cost
would be approximately $50.00 a month, whereas the present
system costs $200.00 a month.
1. Introduction of Planning Commission
Mayor Surfluh introduced the new Planning Commission. They are -
Wayne Bickford, Jesse E. Drake, John Fleming, Hugh Graham,
Wilfred Meacham, George Nagano and Maurice Bertie.
2. Introduction of Ned Rogoway, County Planning Director
Mr. Rogoway spoke at some length on the general master plan
instituted by the County for Morro Bay Harbor, using a schematic
map to illustrate his verbal description of the various areas
of the harbor and sandspit. He referred to the 1962 study made
by Moffatt and Nichol, Consulting Engineers, employed by the
County to make a feasibility report of growth in the harbor.
Mr. Rogoway also mentioned a mimeographed report prepared by
the County Planning Department, copies of which would be avail-
able to the new Morro Bay Planning Commission.
His discussion covered the future development of marinas for
all types of boats, shopping centers, recreational centers, new
type docks, motels, fishing piers, boat services and repairs,
restaurants, a convention center, theatre, museum, amphi-
theatre, protected swimming pool, playground, and campground,
and also the necessity of trying to maintain a park -like
atmosphere. He spoke of moving the present road back behind
the existing fence at the north end of the waterfront, and the
County+s plans to connect it eventually with Highway 466.
Mr. Rogoway also outlined the plans of a private corporation to
develop the sandspit.
He expressed a desire to discuss architectural design at a later
date with the City Planning Commission, and mentioned that
Page 3

since there was some question as to the validity of the plan
at the present time, he felt the matter should be discussed
with the new Planning Commission. At this point it was
arranged that the Council would meet with the Planning
Commission Tuesday, December 1, 1964. City Attorney Kardel
and Mr. Rogovay agreed to attend.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
1. Harbor
RESOLUTION ACCEPTING WORK OF WILLAMETTE TUG AND BARGE
COMPANY, AND AUTHORIZING EXECUTION AND RECORDATION OF
NOTICE OF COMPLETION, AND AUTHORIZING PARTIAL PAYMENT.
A letter from Sam Taylor, City Engineer, informed the
Council that soundings electronically taken, had been made
in the shoal area by Joe Spellacy, Director of Public Works,
Kendall Jenkins, Harbor Manager, and Mr. Taylor, and water
was found to be 12 feet below mean lower low water.
Mr. White mad the resolution in its entirety, also the
Notice of Completion. He stated that so far as he knew,
cleanup work had been taken cam of and he recommended
adoption of the resolution.
Mr. McIntyre, City Counsellor, advised Council that an
access easement had been granted to Willamette, that the
line had parted or leaked and there remained some problem
with respect to this cleanup. The responsibility would be
the contractor's if the work remained to be done, however,
it would be proper for the Council to withhold Notice of
Completion until matter was completed.
Mr. Taylor agreed that there was a hearsay problem with
an oyster lessee, but no official word had been received.
Total amount of contract was $30,000, and upon completion
of the job, 124,000 was to be paid to the contractor. The
balance of $6,000 would be paid 35 days from date of
recordation of Notice of Completion if no liens recorded
in the meantime. Mr. Zinn suggested holding back payment
until the next meeting, along with Notice of Completion.
b. MOTION: Councilman Zinn moved that the subject be
deferred until the next meeting. Seconded
by Mayor Surfluh. Carried unanimously.
e. Lease Matters - Report from Committee
1) Request from Lee Jordan - Additional Uses Request.
Additional uses included real estate office, yacht and harbor
guided tours and boat rides. Mr. Zinn recommended approval.
County Planning Commission had also recommended approval.
MOTION: Councilman Zinn moved that additional uses
request for Jordan lease site be approved.
Seconded by Mr. Bowen. Carried unanimously.
2) Regal Sea Food Company
Mr. Zinn advised that all questions had been answered and
a letter concerning the solvency of Howard Love had been
received from Wells Fargo Bank.

City Council Meeting
November 24, 1964
After some pro and con discussion of the sale of dock to
Regal Sea Food Company, length of a possible lease,
necessity of repairs to dock, assurance that the public
would not be barred from the dock for fishing, and that
dock would undoubtedly revert to the City/County upon
termination of the lease, also the poor leasing history
of the dock, and Mr. Zinn's statement that the matter
should be decided without further delay, the matter was
resolved as follows:
MOTION: Mayor Surfluh moved that the City Attorney be
directed to prepare the necessary resolution
to County to process the placing of this lease
site up for bid and for sale of dock. Motion
seconded by Councilman Zinn. Roll call vote:
Ayes: Councilmen Bowen, Crass, Zinn and Mayor
Surfluh.
Noes: Councilman Payne.
d. Tidelands
On this matter, Mr. %ardel, City Attorney, spoke substan-
tially as follows:
"Perhaps it would be appropriate to take stock of our
situation, at least on a short term look back basis, perhaps
for the past month. As you will recall, late in October,
after blocking out procedural aspects on these leases, which
you have seen in operation here tonight, we called Mr.
Powell for an appointment to meet him in his offices at his
convenience, to request his cooperation and information that
the County has developed regarding the State grant tidelands.
"Preparatory to the meeting, we prepared list of questions,
however, when we stated what we were there for, namely, to
get this information, Mr. Powell was non -responsive to our
request; ultimately suggesting that we put our request in
writing, which we did. At that same meeting we urged him to
cooperate with us in the common interest of the people of
Morro Bay and in the common interest of the people of the
County, and to make available to each other information each
entity has in the hopes that around the first of the year a
determination could be made by the Council as to what it
wishes to do on these tidelands which the County now holds in
trust. Believe me, to meet a January deadline would have
required cooperation before this and have commenced earlier
in November.
"We did, in response to Mr. Powellts requirement, put this
request for cooperation and exchange of information in
writing. We also, as he requested, specifically listed
items of information - fifteen items. In that same letter,
November llth, we suggested that there be a meeting of
Councilman Zinn and Councilman Bowen with the two members
from the Board of Supervisors to discuss this matter. On
November 17 we called Mr. Powell to find out when this
meeting would take -place - the liaison committee meeting.
We were told to put this request in writing. We did put it
in writing as he requested. He said he would take it up
with the two members of the Board of Supervisors, which was
yesterday. To date we have heard nothing from him.
Page 5
MINUTES
City Council Meeting
November 24, 1964
"Now what Ned Rogoway talked about this evening with
respect to a general plan of the harbor was that relating tc
a governmental as distinguished from a proprietary function.
In short, fundamentally, what Ned was talking about is done
by any municipality in seeing to it that the area included
within its geographical boundaries is intelligently
developed and utilized. This is why we have planning
directors and planning commissions.
"Now it seems to us that we are talking about two govern-
mental entities at the local level - city and county - both
of which have a direct and close relationship involved - to
serve those people. We are not enemies of the county and
the county, I would hope, are not enemies of the city.
"It is somewhat depressing to see reticence - refusal - to
supply tits kind of cooperation from another governmental
entity. I don't know if there is something to hide on the
part of the other entity-- whether there is something they
have done which they shouldn't have, or not done that they
should have done. We are not interested in making an issue
out of that. All we are interested in doing is getting the
benefit of whatever information - factual and legal - that
has been developed by the County at the taxpayers' expense,
including taxpayers of Morro Bay.
"Now the County has basically said to us, "Take the State
Grant lands," period. Take it or leave it. I think you
can appreciate it if a party came to you and said "I have
an oyster business and.I will give it to you for 610.00,"
you would raise the question as to inventory, obligations
that go with that business, to see if you would want to pay
the $10.00. I think the Council is in much the same position
on these state grant tidelands. It is certainly true that
lawsuits are miserable, poor solutions to any problem. To
date, the only lawsuit that we've got is the request of
the court to determine the existing status of the lands.
Naturally, if this matter should persist, other litigations
could ensue....
"It would take them six months to come up with a preliminary
title report which would cost $9,000 to $15,000. If it is
correct that such a title search is available in.county
files, it should be made available to us without our having
to incur the expense - timewise or moneywise - to attain them.
Morro Bay is the, or would seem to be the most appropriate
entity to hold these lands in trust for the benefit of the
public; but again, it would seem to us that this can only
be acted upon by the Council after it determine the political
and economic and legal aspects of the problem.
"Perhaps by the next Council meeting there will have been a
liaison committee meeting so that this thing can get going
and be handled in the way it should be."
Mr. Rogoway reminded the Council that his department, the
Parks and Beaches Department, including the Harbor Depart-
ment, were making every effort to cooperate with the Council.

Pennington Creek - Report from Committee
It was felt by Mayor Surfluh, after meetings with Cal Poly,
which included the City Attorney, Mr. Spellacy, Mr. Taylor,
Robert Born, County Hydraulic Engineer, Mr. Fleming, and Cal
Poly engineers, that the terms and conditions upon which with-
drawal of the City's protest were contingent, were impractical
from an engineering and economical standpoint, and it was
apparent to all that fulfillment of said terms and conditions
would not accomplish the desired results. In the face of
three alternatives set forth, Pennington Creek plan, drilling
wells, or appropriation of water from affluent from Men's Colony,
Pennington Creek plan would be the least harmful to water
resources of Morro Bay, and,would allow Cal Poly to start
putting their plan into operation without further delay.

treatment plant, Blocks ?8A, ?8B and ?8C, owned by the City of

Federal grant of funds. Mr. McIntyre explained that an order

Crass. Carried unanimously.
3b. Mr. White stated that new water tanks in North Morro Bay had.

RESOLUTION N0. 92-64
RESOLUTION REQUESTING INFORMATION AND DECLARING INTENT TO DETERMINE
INTEREST TO PROrERTY.
Resolution read in its entirety by Mr. %ardel. There was some
discussion by Council members and from the floor as to type of
information requested. It was established that City Attorney was
mainly interested in information pertaining to survey of titles,
boundary lines, data on public record, and no confidential material
obtained by attorneys hired by County to handle the lawsuit.
Mr. Zinn moved that Resolution No. 92-64 be adopted. Seconded by
Mayor Surfluh. Roll call vote: Carried unanimously. A copy of
said resolution to go on file in the City Hall.
Mr. Payne again suggested that Council members rotate in attending
City Planning Commission meetings.
Mr. White recommended that technically qualified people, such as
personnel from Public Works Department, attend, inasmuch as they
would be cognizant of current rules, regulations and subdivision
ordinances under which City is operating. It was felt that legal
counsel would not be required at every meeting.
MOTION: Mr. Zinn moved that we approach attendance at the
Planning Commission meetings on a rotating basis.
Seconded by Mr. Payne. Roll call vote:
Noes: Councilmen Bowen, Crass and Mayor Surfluh.
Ayes: Councilmen Payne and Zinn.
Mayor Surfluh pointed out that any of the Council who might wish to
attend the Planning meetings would still be free to do so.
Mr. Hugh Graham, Planning appointee, spoke of the present hazardous
conditions at the new breakwater, particularly children out there
without adult supervision. He reported there had already been one
injury.
Mr. Jenkins stated that John Fleming, Superintendent of the State
Park, and LeRoy Sherwin, Superintendent of County Parks and
Beaches, had asked him to relay to Harbor Commissioners and City
Council their willingness to administer that area in any way that
would satisfy the Council.
It was generally agreed that no amount of barricading would prevent
the public from using the area. Mr. White said that at a future date
there would be a resolution presented to the Council, requesting
certain installations and signing, which might serve to alert the
public to the hazards involved. The matter rested there.
Regarding the Regal Sea Food Company request to bid on waterfront
lease sites, Mr. McIntyre called to the attention of the Council a
discrepancy in the request first received from the County asking
them to act on lease sites 129W through 132W, and a more recent
request which included lease site 133W.
Mr. Jenkins explained that 133W was an area inaccessible without
lease sites 129W through 132W to provide access, and it had been
felt that 133W should be included under a master lessee, who could
guarantee access to that site, and would be the only one who could.

3. Appeal of denial of lot split on Lot 4, Block 23, Town of Morro.
Mr. White briefly reviewed the history of this appeal, stating
that it was an appeal of the decision given by the Council at a
previous meeting. He spoke of a letter, a copy of which had been
given to each councilman, received from Mr. Sohechtell and Mr.
Morley, outlining the existing situation and the hardships
involved, if Lot 4 were not split.

Mr. White explained that Morro Del Mar Fire District, in
establishing fire district some three years before, entered
into three lease agreements with Fred S. Hirsch of Hirsch Fire
Equipment Company of Los Angeles to purchase property, build
fire station and equip it with rebuilt fire trucks and necessary
allied products required to go with trucks -- clothing, speciali-
zed tools, etc., on lease agreements with annual payment date
of January 15th. He requested that this payment be allowed.

Mr. White reported that in compliance with provisions of the
government code, City had submitted to the State Board of
Equalization, County Assessor, Collector, and Auditor, City's
wishes in regard to County performing tax assessing functions.
It was felt that the County could do the work more cheaply and
easily than it could be done by City.
The fee is based on one percent of the first $25,000, and'one-
fourth of one percent on remaining taxes collected. Total cost
to the City would be $1,000 to $1,250 per year. He stated that
the requirement that all special districts be dissolved bad been
accomplished and City could collect 1965 taxes.
Authorization for an actuarial valuation from the State Employees
Retirement System to determine cost of a retirement program.

in and review the current status of present employees - wages
and salaries -- to determine cost to City and to the individuals
for a contract with State Employees Retirement System program.
He added that a meeting was scheduled with actuaries of the
State Retirement System and the City Attorney for the following
day. Based on the present number of employees, the amount would
be $186.25. Minute action requested.

Street by Marro Bay Elementary School.
Mr. McIntire stated that Mr. Lyle had deeds to both pieces of
property, however, at the time he purchased the one piece from
the school board, they did not have title to the property.
Through some oversight a quit claim deed had never been executed.
Mr. White mentioned that Mr. Lyle had been trying ever since
1952 to obtain a proper title to the property and had appealed
to the Board of Supervisors for assistance and they had in
turn referred the matter to the City. Mr. Taylor, City
Engineer, had inspected the property and it was recommended

should request quit claim deed from the County.

MOTION: Mr. Crass moved that
Bay be added to the
Carried unanimously.
the name of the City of Morro
postcard. Seconded by Mr. Payne.
Judge Fred Schenk advised the Council that the County Board of
Supervisors had budgeted $?0,000 to enlarge the Justice Court at
Morro Bay. However, before work could be started it would be
necessary to move the library since that space would be needed.
Finding a suitable building for the library was presenting some
problems, also the fact that the County did not know the Cityts
intentions concerning a municipal library. Judge Schenk felt that
a resolution of intention by -Council would help the Board in setting
up the library budget for the next fiscal year, and in determining
what type of building the library should be moved into.
There was considerable pro and con discussion over location of
library, a possible time when City would be able to take over the
facility, and cost of starting and operating a library. But it was
generally agreed that the City should notify County of its
intentions concerning the library, so that the library could be
moved and Justice Court enlargement program started without further
delay. The most suitable location for an interim library seemed
to be the Plaza Shopping Center which had a building available at
$100.00 a month.
It was revealed that Morro Bay is taxed by the County 10 cents per
$100.00 assessed valuation, approximately $47,000 a year. Council
was cautioned not to state any definite tax amount for a library
inasmuch as the City is confined to a $1.00 tax structure and might
find other needs for that money.
Judge Schenk explained his reason for bringing the matter up without
prior notice was the possibility of an earlier deadline - January 1
rather than February 1st - in submitting a resolution of intention
concerning tax assessing and collecting functions. The Judge had
prepared a draft of a resolution which he gave to Mr. McIntire to
review.
Mr. White outlined the steps necessary in notifying State Board of
Equalization and County offices concerned. It was decided: a) to
check on the correct date for notification; b) to set up a meeting
for not later than Tuesday, December 29, to be limited to subject of
library taxation, in the event deadline date was January lst; and
c) to notify Mr. Borradori, Supervisor of District 2, that the Plaza
Shopping Center would be acceptable to the Council as an interim
library location.
It was brought to the attention of the Council that Harry Amsel is
president of the State of California Chamber of Commerce Travel and
Recreation Committee, and it was suggested that Mayor Surfluh sign a'
letter to him concerning the preservation of Morro Rock, which could
be presented by Mr. Amsel to his committee. Mr. White was asked to
prepare such a letter.

RESOLUTION REQUESTING
INTEREST TO PROPERTY.
INFORMATION AND DECLARING INTENT TO DETERMINE
Resolution read in its entirety by Mr. Kardel._ There was some
discussion by Council members and from the floor.as to type of
information requested. It was established that City Attorney was
mainly interested in information pertaining to survey of titles,
boundary lines, data on public record, and no confidential material
obtained by attorneys hired by County to handle the lawsuit.
Mr. Zinn moved that Resolution No. 92-64 be adopted. Seconded by
Mayor Surfluh. Roll call vote: Carried unanimously. A copy of
said resolution to go on file in the City Hall.
Mr. Payne again suggested that Council members rotate in attending
City Planning Commission meetings.

personnel from Public Works Department, attend, inasmuch as they
would be cognizant of current rules, regulations and subdivision
ordinances under which City is operating.. It was felt that legal
counsel would not be required at every meeting.

Mr. Hugh Graham, Planning appointee, spoke of the present hazardous
conditions at the. new breakwater, particularly children out there
without adult supervision. He reported there had already been one
injury.
Mr. Jenkins stated that John Fleming, Superintendent of the State
Park, and LeRoy Sherwin, Superintendent of County Parks and
Beaches, had asked him to relay to Harbor Commissioners and City
Council their willingness to administer that area in any way that
would satisfy the Council.
It was generally agreed that no amount of barricading would prevent
the public from using the area. Mr. White said that at a future date
there would be a resolution presented to the Council, requesting
certain installations and signing, which might serve to alert the
public to the hazards involved. The matter rested there.
Regarding the Regal Sea Food Company request to bid on waterfront
lease sites, Mr. McIntyre called to the attention of the Council a
discrepancy in the request first received from the County asking
them to act on lease sites 129W through 132W, and a more recent
request which included lease site 133W.
Mr. Jenkins explained that 133W was an area inaccessible without
lease sites 129W through 132W to provide access, and it had been
felt that 133W should be included under a master lessee, who could
guarantee access to that site, and would be the only one who could.

Construction Company, second - C. Norman Peterson, and third -
Allied Construction Company. Mr. White then read the names
of sub -contracting companies and equipment suppliers.
2. Proposals - Electronic data processing
Mr. White listed names of data processing firms available to
take care of metered billing for the Water Department. It was
felt because the City was new and not yet firmed up as to
personnel or policy, and no expensive billing equipment yet
purchased, now was the time to get started with the data
processing. After considerable investigation, it was con-
cluded that a banking organization would best serve Morro Bay.
Proposals were requested and received from three banks -
Bank of America.. Crocker -Citizens and Security First National)
Mr. White recommended Bank of America whose total cost was
$469.00 as against $539 for Security First National and $470
for Crocker -Citizens. In addition, the terms of the contract
more nearly met the requirements of the City, having a
cancellation clause requiring only sixty days written notice.
Investigation had also been made of the possibility of the
Bank of America also handling payrolls eventually. The cost
would be approximately $50:00 a month, whereas the present
system costs $200.00 a month.
APPEARANCES
1. Introduction of Planning Commission
Mayor Surfluh introduced the new Planning Commission. They are.-
Wayne.Biokford, Jesse E. Drake, John Fleming, Hugh Graham,
Wilfred Meacham, George Nagano and Maurice Bertie.
2. Introduction of Ned Rogoway, County Planning Director
Mr. Rogoway spoke at some length on the general master plan
instituted by the County for Morro Bay Harbor, using a schematic
map to illustrate his verbal description of the various areas
of the harbor and sandspit. He referred to the 1962 study made
by Moffatt and Niehol, Consulting Engineers, employed by the
County to make a feasibility report of growth in the harbor.
Mr. Rogoway also mentioned a mimeographed report prepared by
the County Planning Department, copies of which would be avail-
able to the new Morro Bay Planning Commission.
His discussion covered the future development of marinas for
all types of boats; shopping centers, recreational centers, new
type docks, motels, fishing piers, boat services and repairs,
restaurants, a convention center; theatre, museum, amphi-
theatre, protected swimming pool, playground, and campground,
and also the necessity of trying to maintaina park -like
atmosphere. He spoke of moving the present road back behind
the existing fence at the north end of the waterfront, and the
County+s plans to connect it eventually with Highway 466.
Mr. Rogoway also outlined the plans of a private corporation to
develop the sandspit.
He expressed a desire to discuss architectural design at a later
date with the City Planning Commission, and mentioned that

since there was some question as to the validity of the plan
at the present time, he felt the matter should be discussed
with the new Planning Commission. At this point it was
arranged that.the Council would meet with the'Planning
Commission Tuesday, December 1, 1964. City Attorney Kardel

UNFINISHED BUSINESS
1. Harbor
a. RESOLUTION ACCEPTING WORK OF WILLAMETTE TUG AND BARGE
COMPANY, AND AUTHORIZING EXECUTION AND RECORDATION OF
NOTICE OF COMPLETION,.AND AUTHORIZING_PARTIAL PAYMENT.
A letter from Sam Taylor, City Engineer,•informed the
Council that soundings electronically taken, had'been made
in the shoal area by Joe Spellacy, Director of Public Works,
Kendall Jenkins, Harbor Manager, and Mr. Taylor, and water
was found to be 12 feet below mean lower low water.
Mr. White read the resolution in its entirety, also the
Notice of Completion. He stated that so far as he knew,
cleanup work had been taken care of and he recommended
adoption of the resolution.
Mr. McIntyre, City Counsellor, advised Council that an
access easement had been granted to Willamette, that the
line had parted or leaked and there remained some problem
with respect to this cleanup. The responsibility would be
the contractor's if the work remained to be done, however,
it would be proper for the Council to withhold Notice of
Completion until matter was completed.
Mr. Taylor agreed that there was a hearsay problem with
an oyster lessee, but no official word had been received.
Total amount of -contract was $30,000, and upon completion
of the job, $24,000 was to be paid to the contractor. The
balance of $6,000 would be paid 35'days from date of
recordation of Notice of Completion if no liens recorded
in the meantime. Mr. Zinn suggested holding back payment
until the neat meeting, along with Notice of Completion.
b. MOTION: Councilman Zinn moved that the subject be
deferred until the neat meeting. Seconded
by Mayor Surfluh. Carried unanimously.
c. Lease Matters - Report from Committee
1) Request'from Lee Jordan - Additional Uses Request.
Additional uses included real estate office, yacht and harbor
guided tours and boat rides. Mr. Zinn recommended approval.
County Planning Commission had also recommended approval.
MOTION: Councilman Zinn moved that additional uses,
request for.Jordan lease site be approved.
Seconded by Mr. Bowen. Carried unanimously.

a letter concerning the solvency of Howard Lowe had been
received from Wells Fargo Bank.

City.Council Meeting
November 24, 1964
After some pro and,con discussion of the sale of dock to
Regal Sea Food Company, length of a possible lease,
necessity of repairs to dock, assurance that the public
would not be barred from the dock for fishing, and that
dock would undoubtedly revert to the City/County upon
termination -of the lease, also the poor leasing history
of the dock, -and Mr. Zinn's statement that the matter
should be decided without further delay, the matter was
resolved as follows:
MOTION: Mayor Surfiuh moved that the City Attorney be
directed to prepare the necessary resolution
to County to process the placing of this lease
site up forbid and for sale of dock.. Motion
seconded by Councilman Zinn. Roll call vote:
Ayes: Councilmen Bowen, Crass, Zinn and Mayor
Surfluh.'
Noes: Councilman Payne.
d. Tidelands
On this matter, Mr. Kardel, City Attorney, spoke substan-
tially as follows:
"Perhaps it would be appropriate to take stock of our
situation, at least on a short term look back basis, perhaps
for the past month. As you will recall, late in October,
after blocking out procedural aspects on these leases, which
you have seen in operation here tonight, we called Mr.
Powell for an appointment to meet him in his offices at his
convenience, to request his cooperation and information that
the County has developed regarding the State grant tidelands.
"Preparatory to the meeting, we prepared list of questions,
however, when we stated what we were there for, namely, to
get this information, Mr. Powell was non -responsive to our
request; ultimately suggesting that we put our request in
writing, which we did. At that same meeting we urged him to
cooperate with us in the_eommon interest of the people of
Morro Bay and in the common interest of the people of the
Countyp and to make available to each other information each
entity has in the hopes that around the first of the year a
determination could be made by the Council as to what it
wishes to do on these tidelands which the County now holds in
trust: Believe me, to meet a January deadline would have
required.cooperation before this and have commenced earlier
in November.
"We did, in response to Mr. Powell's requirement, put this
request for cooperation and exchange of information in
writing. We also, as he requested, specifically listed
items of information - fifteen items. In that same letter,
November llth, we suggested that there be a meeting of
Councilman Zinn and Councilman Bowen with the two members
from the Board of Supervisors to disouss this matter. On
November 17 we called Mr. Powell to find out when this
meeting would take place --the liaison committee meeting.
We were told to put this request in writing. We did put it
in writing as he requested. He said he would take it up
with the two members of the Board of Supervisors, which was
yesterday. To date we have heard nothing from him.

City.Council Meeting
November 24, 1964
"Nor what Ned Rogoway talked about this evening with
respect to a general plan of the harbor was that relating to
a governmental is distinguished from a proprietary function.
In short, fundamentally, What Ned was talking,about is done
by any municipality in seeing to it that the area.included
within its geographical boundaries is intelligently
developed and utilized. This is why we have planning
directors and planning commissions.
"Now it.seems to us that we are talking about two govern-
mental entities at the local level - city and county - both
of which have.a direct and close relationship involved - to
serve those people. We are not enemies of the county and
the county, I would hope, arenot enemies of the city.
i
"It is somewhat depressing'to see reticence - refusal - to
supply this kind of cooperation from another governmental
entity. I don't knot if there is something to hide on the
part of the other entity = whether, there is something they'
have done which they shouldn't have, or nA done that they
should have done. We are not interested in making an issue
out of that. All we are interested; -In doing is getting the
benefit of whatever information - factual and legal - that
has been developed by the County at the taxpayers' expense,
including taxpayers of Morro Bay.
"Now the County has basically said -to us,""Take the State
Grant lands." period. Take it or leave,it.. I think you
`oan appreciate it if a,party came to you and said "I have
an oyster business and.I will give it to you for 40.00p"
you would raise the question as to inventory, obligations
that go with that business, to see if you Would want to pay
the $10.00. I think'the Council is.in'muoh the same'position
'on these state grant tidelands. It,is certainly true that
lawsuits are miserable, poor solutions to any problem. To
date, the only lawsuit that,welve got is the request of .
the court to determine the existing status of the lands.
Naturally, if this matter should persist, other litigations
could ensue....
• i
"It would take them six months to come up with a preliminary
title report which would cost $9,000 to $15,000. If it is
correct that such a title search isaviilable in county
files, it should be made available'to us without our having
to incur the expense - timewise or moneywise - to attain them.
Morro Bay is the, or would seem to be the most appropriate
entity to hold these lands in trust for the benefit of the
public; but again, it would seem to us that this can only
be acted upon by the Council after it determiwes the political
and economic and legal aspect's of the problem.
"Perhaps by the next Council meeting. there Will have been a
liaison committee meeting.so that this thing can get going
and be handled in the -way it should be."
Mr. Rogoway reminded the Council that his department, the
Parks and Beaches Department, including the Harbor Depart-
ment; were making every effort to cooperate with the Council.

3. Pennington Creek - Report from Committee
It was felt by Mayor Surfluh, after meetings with Cal Poly,
which included the City Attorney, Mr. Spellaey, Mr. Taylor,
Robert Born, County Iiydraulic Engineer, Mr. Fleming, and Cal
Poly engineers, that the terms and conditions upon which with-
drawal of the City's protest were contingent, were impractical
from an engineering and economical standpoint, and it was
apparent to all that fulfillment of said terms and conditions
would not accomplish the desired results. In the face of
three alternatives set forth, Pennington Creek plan, drilling
wells, or appropriation of water from affluent from Men's Colony,
Pennington Creek plan would be the least harmful to water
resources of Morro Bay, and would allow Cal Poly to start
putting their plan into operation without further delay.

treatment plant, Blocks ?8A, 018B and 180, owned by the City of
Morro Bay and Cayucos. A title policy was needed to secure the
Federal grant of funds. Mr. McIntyre explained that an order
from Council was all that was needed.
MOTION: Mayor Surfluh moved to authorize the procurement
of a title report on the lands pertinent to the
waste water treatment plant. Seconded by Mr.
Crass. Carried unanimously.
3b. Mr. White stated that new water tanks in North Morro Bay had
been completed, tested, and accepted by Department of Public
Works. Two rungs outside ladders had been added on outside of
each tank. A check, certified, in the amount of $02,744, was
now on deposit in the safe deposit box in the name of the City
and he requested an additional sum sufficient to cover the
cost of the ladders. Instead of $11,744, the payment would be
in the amount of $12,880.

Mr. White read the ordinance in its.entirety.
The Councilmen were'highly commended for.the excellence of
the ordinance. Judge Schenk expressed his pleasure with the
measure. Questions from the floor were answered. Counoilman
Zinn raised.the question on Sub -title 6206, Public Utilities,
of a possible inequity for the Public Utility Company paying
franchise to a city in the possible amount of $110
500 while
another utility company would pay a license fee.of $50.00. It
was brought out that by the.1937 Franchise Act telephone
companies were excluded from paying franchise tax to cities,
however, legislation.is pending to include telephone companies
for one percent of gross receipts. It was stated that if.the
ordinance was to stay regulatory it could not get into a tax
based on gross receipts. ,Mr. Zinn also questioned criminal
penalty,and was assured that this was.covered in an earlier code
referred to in the ordinance.
Mr. Bloise of PG&E asked that the exemption indicated under the
fee section of.the ordinance also be included under the.exemption
section., Mr. McIntyre, one of the City Attorneys, said that
while a business:could be exempt from paying the fee, no business-
man was exempt from making application. Mr. Bloise requested
that PG&Ets attorney be given an opportunity to confer with
the Councilmen concerning the matter.
It was then noted that this had not been a first reading since
not so stated. Mr. McIntyre advised that there would be no
legal objection to a motion being made referring to the ordinance
read a few minutes ago.
MOTION: Mrs Crass moved that ORDINANCE NO. 10, read about five
minutes ago, be construed as the first reading, and
at the meeting two weeks hence, a second reading be
made by title only, upon approval by unanimous vote.
Seconded by Mr. Zinn. Roll call vote: Carried
.unanimously..
3. Harbor
a. Dredging - Notice of Completion.

MINUTES
City.Counoil Meeting
November 10, 1964
Mr. White statedthat the City had not as yet received a
notice of,100%;completion of the dredging from Willamette.
Certain items..have not,as yet been completed. Notification
of Completion has been prepared by City Attorneys,.and.the
matter would be taken up at the meeting of November 24. 1964.
b. Leases
(1) Regal Sea Food - Use Permit and Lease.
Mr. Zinn stated.that the Use Permit had been approved by
the Council at the last meeting, but there was a request
that, had been approving
overlooked during the,review and approvi
of the Use Permit. Some months ago'Regal Sea Food had' ,
requested that the Groioh Dock be,put up for public bid
for lease and no action was taken by the County, and'none
by the Council, and they requested that the matter be put
back on the agenda to reach some determination. Their one
fish ladder was inadequate, and since there was room for
two, they wished to install another. .However, the dock
needed considerable repair work. If Council was in.agree-
ment, it could be opened for public bid.
There was some discussion by the Councilmen and from the
floor on various aspects of the.matter -- renovating the
dock to code standards, use of dock, whether it should be
restricted to commercial fishing or other businesses be
allowed on it. Mr. Crill stated that Regal was ready to
go ahead as soon, as the albacore season was over, which
would be in about one month.
Mr. Jenkins, Harbor Manager, explained how the County
handled bids.. Uses were specified in the announcement of
bids, bids were sealed, but upon opening, oral bids were
allowed from the floor provided that they must exceed by
5% the previous high bid.
Mr. Crill said.that under the Moffatt and Nichol survey,
this,particular area had been set up for commercial use,
and according to lease policy the county allows a term of
one year for each $1,000 invested.
Mr. Borradori stated that the County would be more than
willing to advertise the site for bid if the Council wished
but would be reluctant to act unless they had a recommenda-
tion from the Council.
Mr. McIntyre reminded the Council that according to procedure
the fact finding commission should investigate the matter
and present their findings to the Council. A -motion could
be made instructing the City Attorney to prepare a resolution
requesting the County to advertise for,lease, if this'should
be the Councilts desire, and recommend to the County certain
provisions of this advertisement. He mentioned a letter
sent to the Council by the Attorney -recommending various
items of information which ought to'be determined prior to
Councilts recommendation. Mr. McIntyre suggested that the
matter be referred to the fact finding committee. It was
agreed that Mr. Zinn would meet with Mr. Crill.
(2) Yocum Lease - 86 and 86-W

November 10,
Meeting
1964
Mr. Zinn stated that this item was referred to City Attorney
at the previous meeting. It was agreed that this matter
was in.the same category as b. (1) above,.and Mr. McIntyre
recommended that the same procedure be adopted. -Mayor
Surfluh ordered the matter.,referred to committee and Judge_
Schenk, Attorney for Mr. Yocum, asked'that he be included
in any conference concerning Mr. Yocum before any action
was taken by the Council
(3) Carver Lease - South T Pier.
This was.plaoed in same category with,matters above, and
was referred to committee. Mr. McIntyre mentioned that
this.matter had a considerable history, as indicated by
harbor files, but that further study would be made and.he
would come up with a report for the meeting of November 24,
1964.
c. Permit for structure on Navigable Waters. Report from
Committee.
Mr. Zinn said that two requests had been reeeived, one from
Mr. Yocum and one from Harbor Hut, that they would like to
construct boat slips perpendicular to shoreline. They now
have boats docked parallel to shore and are not getting
space to dock enough boats. By putting slips perpendicular,
boats could be docked on both.sides. He recommended
approval of the boat slips and a.request that the City
Attorney draw up the necessary resolution to request the
County Planning Commission's approval.
Mr. McIntyre advised that granting of permit is govern-
mental.funotion which is properly that of the City, but
the" set forth in code granting such permits is
very elaborate and one of the most important demands is a
public hearing wherein persons concerned must be notified
at a certain time prior to'granting permit. There was
considerable objection from the floor to perpendicular
construction of boat slips.
Mr. Jenkins,stated that acquisition of the U.S. Army
Engineers' permit for structures upon navigable waters was
of prime importance and should be done prior to any other
action being taken, and that it takes from eight to ten
weeks to process the permit. He also stated that it was
the recommendation of the army.engineers that construction
of bulkhead and pier head lines not take place until after
the Review of Reports. Mayor Surfluh suggested the matter
b f red to committee and the City Attorney to resolve.
Mr. McIntyre requested that he be allowed to prepare a
letter to Council summarizing for the Council what is
involved in this matter.
d. Moose Lodge Use Permit - Report from City Attorney.
Mr. McIntyre reported that in compliance w had direote looked into
from Council at the previous meeting, they
matter of relocation of Moose Lodge building and had
Page 5

intended to contact Council by letter but work load had
prevented. He reported that the County,Planning Commission
would rule on the matter at its next regular meeting,
Thursday, November 12th. None of the suggestions made at
the previous Council meeting had to be used since they
would not hasten the matter. Final disposition would take
place at the Planning Commission meeting, barring continu-
anoe of meeting, and final recommendations should be
available'for the Council meeting of November 24, 1964.
He mentioned that all persons owning property within 300
feet of the outside boundaries of the property have the
right to protest at the Planning meeting and that these
persons had all been notified by the County.
e. Golf.Carts. Report from City Attorney.
Mr. McIntyre stated that the licensing of vehicles is a
State function and established pretty definitely by State
code. City streets are included, as well as any other
streets, in licensing vehicles; and in addition, traffic
control is a State not a municipal act. Mr. Bowen accepted
this edict reluctantly.
NEW BUSINESS
I. Report on Excess Lands available for purchase from Division of
Highways. . _
Mr. White read a communication from Division of Highways to
Department of Public Works, Distriet.5, San Luis Obispo, dated
October 26, 1964, covering maps showing State-owned lands and
indicating certain parcels of land suitable and required for
City purposes. They were to be offered at public auction, but
Mr. White recommended that until further information could be
obtained from Division-.of;Highways, the matter be deferred until
meeting,of November 24. 1964.
2. Proposed Purchase of Parcel for Street use on Las Tunas Avenue.
Mr. White read a letter to Department of Public Works, dated
September 29, 1964, which included a map of State-owned property --
700 square feet presently being used by County. The entire
parcel.was to be sold at public auction. Estimated value $300.
A second letter was read by Mr. White. It was addressed to City
of Morro Bay from Department of Public Works, and dated November 2,
1964. It called Council's attention to.letter received by County
from Division of Highways concerning triangular parcel of land
on which County -built road has operated under an encroachment
permit, but which was now City property. Mr. White felt that it
should be'purchased by the City to prevent.purohase by a private
party. The property lies on Las Tunas Avenue adjacent to Sproutz-
Reitz and Security First National -Bank.. In line with this, the
City Attorney had prepared a resolution. .

Matter of Whale Rook Water Agreement with Waterworks District
No. 2.
Mr. White stated that the City Attorneys office had suggested
a particular course of action. He invited Mr. McIntyre to
explain the agreement. Mr. McIntyre had examined.the document
and stated that it was an agreement between the County of San
Luis Obispo, Waterworks District No. 2, the Whale Rock Commis-
sion and the City of San -Luis Obispo providing for use of
water and the agreement also provides that the agreement is
assignable from Waterworks District No. 2 to the City of .Morro
Bay upon acceptance of terms of this agreement by City of Morro
Bay. Waterworks District No. 2 will be officially dissolved
as authorized by resolution tonight, when quit claim deed is
recorded in County Recorder's office. In order to have the

Flat rates were considered inequitable, gross receipts too

of cooperation. Number of employees as a tax basis was also
mentioned, and size of tax in relation to size of business.
Mayor Surfluh stated that an ordinance would be prepared in
finalized form for the agenda.of November 24, 1964.
Mr. Payne moved to refer the matter to committee to be
studied further, written up, and presented at the next
regular meeting by Mr. Crass. There was no second.
Asked by Judge Schenk for his.thinking on this matter, Mr.
Crass stated in_part that it would be necessary for him to
discuss the matter with a oontractor., not present at the
meeting,'and to give it further thought, but that he would
come to the next regular meeting prepared to present an
ordinance which he felt would meet the needs of the situation -
a tax regulatory in nature, not damaging to the local business
men, but including the transient business.

Mr. 'Sam Taylor, City Engineer, requested Kendall Jenkins,
Harbor Manager, to give a dredging report. Mr. Jenkins
stated that the work was 30% completed and the Willamette
Company expected to complete the work approximately the
first week in November on schedule. He stated that it
would be necessary to take two sweeps.of the area and a
portion of a third. .
Mr. Payne inquired about the Morro Rook Road, and Mr.
Jenkins advised that'opening of the.road had been delayed
due to a second contractor using the area for equipment.
Because of liability involved, the County would not allow
the removal of the fence until the equipment was removed
and the area cleaned up, which action should take place
in approximately two weeks.

would pay their portion of the work.
Both Mr. Spellacy and Mr. Taylor had talked -to Mr.
Freeman, the other owner involved, and had given him a
copy of the petition. He wished to study the petition
before signing. Since he preferred a bond issue, however,
no final answer had yet been received. Mr. Taylor assured
the Council there would be very little change in the grade --
no more than a couple of feet. The eastmost garage could
be used only for storage. At present there,was no firm
commitment.
b. 66th Street
Mr. Taylor reported that the Division of Highways would
consider the drainage pipe over their right of way, but
would prefer a portion to be on PG&E,, and the latter had
not objected when approached. Work will be continued by
the Public Works Department to resolve the matter.
Regarding abandonment of access right of way to Morro
Development Company, the City had not yet received a
