IT L , City Clerk MINUTES - MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL Special Meeting November 19, 1970 7:00 p.m. City Hall Conference Room Mayor Mitchell called the meeting to order at 7:05 p.m. ROLL CALL PRESENT: Councilmen Donohoo, Keiser, McConaghay, and Mayor Mitchell ABSENT: Councilman Walters Also present: Parks and Recreation Commissioners Domenghini, Wise, and Chairman Wieman Mayor Mitchell stated this was a joint meeting of the City Council and the Parks and Recreation Commission and asked for a discussion of matters of mutual interest. Councilman Keiser noted her disappointment at the absence of two Parks and Recreation Commissioners. MOTION: Councilman Keiser moved that the meeting be adjourned. The motion died for the lack of a second. Councilman Keiser then noted her dissatisfaction with the services rendered to the city by the Recreation Director. She addressed her remarks to Mr. Curaza, commenting on his "lack of closeness" with local children, his failure to schedule recreation teen dances, and his reported absence from scheduled meetings. Mr. Curaza noted he might not be close enough•to children participating in the recreation program; however, if so, he was not aware of it. He also indicated that he had had difficulty in scheduling teen dances because of conflict with school activities, but was planning a dance for December 12. Councilman Keiser inquired regarding the legality of the Morro Bay Rockers collecting fees to pay for the services of square dance callers and handling the funds themselves rather than depositing them with the city. She was informed that this group was a private organization and had no connection with the city. Chairman Wieman commented on the methods presently used by the city in budgeting funds for recreation programs. He referred to the recent discussion concerning the "Gourmet Cooking Class", and noted that this is but one example of the self-supporting programs that might become available to the Recreation Department. The Parks and Recreation Commission has requested Council consider- ation of possible methods of handling self-supporting programs whereby the funds could be collected from the participants and deposited with the city in a special fund to be used for the program. This would provide for expansion of the recreation program without requiring additional budgeted funds from the city general fund. If this method would not be permissible for a general law city, Chairman Wieman suggested that funds for self-supporting programs be deposited to the general fund with the agreement that the Council would approve the necessary transfer of the funds to the Recreation fund for disbursement. MINUTES - MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL Special Meeting November 19, 1970 Page Two Discussion was held concerning the legality of establishing a special account for the deposit and disbursement of funds for self-supporting recreation programs. Council members indicated approval of such a plan, with the approval of the City Attorney. Further lengthy discussion was held concerning methods of handling funds for self-supporting recreation programs. Councilman Keiser commented on the qualifications of recreation leaders such as Pete Tomosovich and Christine Moon, noting that the city should plan ahead for positions for leaders such as these who are doing an excellent job and would like to remain in Morro Bay and work for the city. Discussion was held concerning the self-supporting recreation programs presently scheduled and the methods now being used to handle these funds. Mayor Mitchell suggested that some consideration be given to providing a "drop -in" recreation center where teen-agers could spend their idle time. Chairman Wieman stated that programs such as this have been tried by various cities, but have not been successful. The teen-agers lose interest unless active teen-age leadership exists. Chairman Wieman requested an indication from the Council con- cerning the funds available for the recreation program for the next fiscal year. He was informed that the program can not be expanded with additional funds from the city, and the Commission should therefore plan their budget at the same level as the 1970-71 budget., Further lengthy discussion was held concerning the duties of the Recreation Director, the programs offered by the Recreation Department, and other matters of mutual interest to the Parks and Recreation Commission and the City Council. MOTION: Councilman Keiser moved that the meeting be adjourned. The motion was seconded by Councilman Donohoo and unanimously carried. The meeting was adjourned at 8:48 p.m. Recorded by: M. J.

He noted that if it becomes I • • i / MINUTES - MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL Adjourned Regular Meeting December 1, 1970 / Page Two necessary to spend the entire $20,000 for water exploration later in the fiscal year, Council could then transfer from the reserves the amount used for this project. MOTION: Councilman Donohoo moved that the recommendation of the City Administrator be approved and the funds be taken from the $20,000 budgeted for water exploration and land acquisition. Councilman McConaghay requested an amendment to the motion to include the provision that if the full $20,000 is needed later, the money be replaced to that account from the reserve fund. The amendment was accepted by Councilman Donohoo. The motion was seconded by Mayor Mitchell and unanimously carried. MOTION: Councilman Donohoo moved that the Council award the contract for Item #1 to Harbor Electric in the amount of $15,080; for Item #2 to Floyd Wells in the amount of $23,760; Item #3 to Smee's Plumbing in the amount of $6,206; and the chlorination facility to C. W. Taber Engineering in the amount of $16,671.54. The motion was seconded by Mayor Mitchell and unanimously carried. 4. Review of leasing policies Mr. Madden reviewed the primary trust purposes for the tidelands, noting that the city administers some 49 leases and use permit agree- ments for waterfront property. He explained that the leases are of three different types: "County", "Pipkin", and "City" leases. (1) "County" leases. The city holds 23 of these leases. Council members were each given actual "county" leases to refer to as the City Attorney and City Administrator pointed out the basic provisions of this.group of leases. Mr. Madden stated that these leases provide for re-evaluation by the County Assessor each five years with an adjustment of the yearly rental to 68 of the new full cash value appraisal. The first five-year period came shortly after incorporation while the city was in direct litigation with the county and therefore a re-evaluation of the leases was not made at that time. The second five-year period will be up beginning in January of next year, with 14 leases to be re-evaluated during 1971, 6 during 1972, 1 during 1973, and 2 during 1974, None of these leases has a percentage of the gross provision. (2) "Pipkin" leases. The city holds 7 of these leases. which were entered into pursuant to the terms of the settlement of the Pipkin litigation. These leases are for a basic term of 50 years, commencing October 1, 1968. These leases contain no percentage'of gross MINUTES - MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL Adjourned Regular Meeting December 1, 1970 Page Three sales rental provision; they provide for one re -appraisal at the end of the first 25 years; the rental is based on 6% per year of the valuation of the property ($3.50 per square foot of land and $2.00 per square foot of water); and provide for an annual adjustment of the rental according to the change in the Cost of Living Index for the Los Angeles area. Until October 1 of this year, the old "county" rental was in effect for these leases. Effective October 1, the new rental based on the Pipkin valuation went into effect, adjusted in proportion to the change in the Cost of Living Index for the previous calendar year. The next rental adjustment will occur on July 1, 1971. (3) "City" leases. The city holds 5 of these leases, which are a modification of the "Pipkin" lease. These leases provide for a percentage of the gross income from sales of services or products with a minimum guaranteed rental as in the Pipkin leases. The guaranteed minimum rental is adjusted annually according to the change in the Cost of Living Index. Mr. Madden noted that these leases are in accordance with the policies of the State Lands Commission with regard to the percentage rental provision. Mr. Madden mentioned briefly the fourth type of tenancy which is a Use Permit. The city has several of these agreements which are for a term of one year only and are reviewed and renewed annually by the Council. Mr. Madden stated that the basic lease policy of the city to date has been largely determined by the action of the Council in granting leases on an individual basis. Mr. Little informed the Council members that the County Assessor's office has furnished the city with the present full cash value of the "County" leases which are due for re-evaluation in the near future. He presented an information sheet showing the names of lessees, lease sites, the present valuation, the new valuation, the "Pipkin" valuation, the percentage difference between the new valuation and the "Pipkin" valuation, the present yearly rental, and the new yearly rental for the leases in question. He noted that staff feels an inequity may exist when the new rental becomes effective because the new county valuation ranges from 73.5% to 164.4% of the "Pipkin" valuation of waterfront property. It was noted that since none of these leases were re -appraised at the end of the first five-year period, the lessees have had a "windfall" for five years and should now be prepared to accept an increased rental. Further lengthy discussion was held among members of the Council and the staff concerning the inequities of the increased rental, and the possible alternative for the lessees of negotiating with the city for a percentage rental lease. Mr. Madden noted that the city is obligated under the terms of the tidelands trust to secure a fair rental for the waterfront property, but that it is desirable to have successful and healthy businesses on the waterfront. 0 MINUTES - MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL Adjourned Regular Meeting December 1, 1970 Page Four Councilman McConaghay suggested that the city communicate with 14 leaseholders who are scheduled for a rental increase in 1971 and advise them that they have two alternatives: (1) pay the increased rental as provided in their present lease; or (2) negotiate with the city for a "city" percentage lease. MOTION: Councilman Donohoo moved that the lessees with "county" type leases which are up for re -appraisal in 1971 be advised of the new rental which will be effective according to the re -appraisal by the County Assessor and of their alternative of negotiating with the city for a percentage rental lease prior to a set date in December of this year; and that this procedure be followed for all"county"type leases prior to their re -appraisal dates in 1971, 1972, 1973, and 1974. The motion was seconded by Mayor Mitchell and unanimously carried. MOTION: Councilman Keiser moved that the motion be amended to provide for notification only to those lessees whose new valuation as set by the County Assessor is above the "Pipkin" valuation. The motion was seconded by Councilman McConaghay and unanimously carried. Mr. Madden noted that the rental increases for 1971 based on the Assessor's re -appraisal for those leases will result in a $12,300 increase of revenue per year to the city. The increase for all county leases up for re -appraisal through 1974 will result in an $18,500 increase. 5. Recommendation on proposal of Jim Maul for development of Lease Site No. 10 Mr. Little reported that.staff has negotiated with Mr. Maul, at the direction of the Council, for the development of Lease Site No. 10. Staff recommended that due to the problems created by the variety of percentage rentals for each small business to be located within Mr. Maul's "arcade -type" building, an additional use of "arcade -type building" be added to the schedule of percentage rentals and that Mr. Maul's development be considered a rental operation. Mr. Little noted that if this were done and the percentage rental set at 12% and if Mr. Maul had 85% occupancy of his building, the city would receive only the minimum rental; but if he had 100% occupancy, the city would receive rental 26% above the minimum guaranteed rental. After further lengthy discussion relative to the recommendation of staff, the following motion was made: MOTION: Mayor Mitchell moved that the city establish the use "arcade -type building", add this use to the schedule of percentage rentals, and affix 12% as the percentage for this use. The motion was seconded by Councilman Donohoo and unanimously carried, 0 0 MINUTES - MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL Adjourned Regular Meeting December 1, 1970 Page Five MOTION: Councilman Donohoo moved that the city accept the proposal of Mr. Maul and direct staff to negotiate a lease with him on Lease Site No. 10.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS B=1 Review of Division of Highways offer to sell surplus property Mr. Little informed the Council that staff has prepared approximate cost figures for the property in the two -block area MINUTES - MORRO Regular Meeting Page Two BAY CITY COUNCIL December 8, 1970 surrounding City Hall for comparison with the purchase price of the Division of Highways property on Quintana Road. He stated the two -block area, land only, is appraised at $79,080. The appraised value of the improvements is $126,804. Using the same valuation per square foot as that of the Division of Highways property, the land and improvements would be worth approximately $312,408. Mr. Little also reported on the staff negotiations with representatives of the Division of Highways concerning the possibility of purchasing the State property on deferred payment plan. The local representatives have suggested $30,000 down with the balance in ten equal payments and interest at the going FHA rate. He requested Council determination as to the desirability and the feasibility of purchasing this property. Councilman McConaghay noted strong objections to using the same value per square foot for both parcels of property, noting his opinion that the property surrounding City Hall was of less value than the State property. He stated this valuation could not be accepted by the Council nor by the citizens of the community. Donald Brown, Planning Commission Chairman, explained to the Council his methods of computing the value of the land in question. Mayor Mitchell suggested securing an independent appraisal of the property before considering the matter further. Mr. Madden informed the Council that the Division of Highways would be willing to make available to the city their appraisal figures and the methods used by the State to determine the fair market value. He also recommended an independent appraisal of the property. Councilman Keiser advocated using city land acquisition funds for such projects as a park for north Morro Bay and the purchase of the Veterans' Memorial Hall for a convention center. She questioned the feasibility of using the funds for property which could not be developed for some time because of lack of funds. Further lengthy discussion was held concerning this property. MOTION: Councilman Donohoo moved that staff be directed to negotiate with the State Division of Highways concerning the deferred payment method of purchase of this property and engage an independent appraiser to make an appraisal, transferring the necessary funds from the city general fund. The motion died for the lack of a second. The Council members discussed the matter further. MOTION: Mayor Mitchell moved that the Council indicate a willingness to purchase this property, assuming the Council is satisfied with the cost of the property and the city's ability to use it as a civic center. The motion was seconded by Councilman Donohoo.

William Mehaffey, Secretary of the Morro Bay Fire Fighters, was present and expressed his organization's opposition to the proposed amendment. He requested the revision of the entire Resolution No. 29-65. Mr. Little explained that shortly after the adoption of Resolution No. 29-65, Resolution No. 59-65 was adopted, deleting several important portions of the original rules. However, the former administration and the present one have followed the original intent of the personnel rules with respect to qualifications for employment, etc. He noted his agreement with the need for revision of the personnel rules and regulations. MOTION: Councilman McConaghay moved that action be deferred on this resolution and that staff be directed to review what remains of Resolution No. 29-65 with respect to its re -implementation with the necessary modifications, including the terms of the present proposed amendment.

Councilman McConaghay questioned the fact that mylar, sepia, and blueline paper for city drawings and maps was listed under General Services and also under Engineering and Administration. Staff agreed that this was an error, and removed the proposed amount of $300 from General Services for these items, changing the total for Account 22-12 from $3,500 to $3,200. Discussion was held relative to travel and meetings expenses for the Council, Planning Commission, and all departments. Councilman Giannini disagreed with the $1,500 allocation for the City Council and City Administrator for travel expenses. He felt the Council members should spend a portion of their $150 monthly salary for these expenses. Councilman Keiser spoke relative to the importance of the Councilmen attending these meetings for city officials. She did not agree that this item should be cut, stating she felt the $150 paid monthly to the Council members was not actually a salary, but was to be used for this purpose, in addition to the expenses paid by the city for travel and meetings. Councilman Giannini questioned the expenditure for ambulance service. He felt this service could be furnished by the Fire Department, since they are usually the first ones to arrive at the scene of any emergency. He stated he felt there are not sufficient emergency cases in Morro Bay to justify an ambulance service. Councilman Keiser spoke relative to the cost of this service and the fact that such a service is very reassuring to the senior citizens in the community. Mr. Little questioned the feasibility of staffing an ambulance service with Fire Department personnel, He felt this might create 1J MINUTES - MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL Special Meeting May 6, 1970 Page Four a problem if a fire call was received when the firemen were responding to an emergency call in the ambulance. Fire Chief Rieger spoke relative to the additional problems which would be incurred by the Fire Department in attempting to furnish emergency ambulance service to the community. Councilman McConaghay stated that some sort of emergency service is mandatory for this area and recommended that the City Council continue with this program. He noted his interest in obtaining more information from Mr. Flock relative to the number of emergency calls received for Morro Bay. MOTION: Councilman McConaghay moved that Budget Account No. 22 be approved in the amount of $50,404. The motion was seconded by Councilman Donohoo and carried by voice vote with Councilman Giannini voting "no". 9. Animal Regulations - Budget Account No. 27 Mr. Little reported that the various city and county officials throughout the county have examined the Woods Animal Shelter expenditures, determined the yearly operating costs of the operation, and have estimated the percentage of the operating costs which should be born by each city and by the county.

HEARINGS, APPEARANCES, AND REPORTS A=1 Report on proposed purchase of State Maintenance Yard property Mr. Little advised the Council that the State has set the price of $133,878 as the fair market value for.the former Division of Highways Maintenance Yard on Quintana Road. He stated the parcel contains 2.195 acres and would sell for $1.40 per square foot. However, he noted that the property will first be offered to other State agencies before the city will have an opportunity to consider its purchase. The State also requires that if the property is purchased by the city, it be used for municipal purposes and can not be re -sold in the future. Councilman Keiser stated this price is exorbitant and noted her feeling that the city should take advantage of the reasonable selling price of $.45 per square foot for the parcel in north Morro Bay for a park. MOTION: Councilman Keiser moved that the City Council instruct staff to investigate the purchase of the property in north Morro Bay for $25,000 cash and proceed with the purchase. The motion was seconded by Councilman Bickford and failed to pass on the following roll call vote: AYES: Councilmen Bickford and Keiser NOES: Councilman Giannini and Mayor Pro Tem Donohoo A-2 Report on--Embarcadero Road extension and Morro Creek bridge Mr. Little noted that staff had been instructed by the Council at a previous meeting to investigate the possible methods of MINUTES - MORRO BAY CITY COUNCIL Regular Meeting January 13, 1970 Page Two financing this project. He informed the Council that two methods are available: (1) An assessment district; and (2) Payment in cash from gas tax fund reserves and 1970-71 allocations together with a short assessment proceeding for the Morro Sands Land Company's share of the project cost. He stated that if the Council determines that the Morro Creek Bridge is more important than the replacement of the South Bay Boulevard twin bridges, the $60,000 1970-71 construction funds plus $31,000 from construction reserves could be used for this project. Morro Sands Land Company could pay for their share through short assessment proceedings. He recommended that if the Council approves the project, the cash method of financing be used. Discussion was held relative to the condition of the twin bridges at this time and the feasibility of delaying their replace- ment by using these construction reserves for the Morro Creek bridge. Mr. Little advised the Council that representatives of Morro Dunes have indicated interest in leasing the city fee property near P.G.& E. which has been designated for trailer park use and would be available for lease with the installation of this road and bridge across Morro Creek. The property would be used by Morro Dunes for an overflow camping area, providing only minimum facilities. Mr. Little stated that such a lease could be negotiated on a short-term basis. Councilman Bickford stated lie agreed that the construction reserve funds held for replacement of the twin bridges could be better utilized on the Morro Creek bridge project. Councilman Giannini felt the twin bridges are in a very unstable condition and he noted his concern with the upkeep problems for the proposed extension of the Embarcadero, due to the movement of sand in that area. He also stated he felt.this extension would be harmful to downtown business because tourists would leave the city without passing through the business district. Councilman Donohoo and Councilman Keiser noted their approval of Mr. Little's recommendations. MOTION: Councilman Bickford moved that staff be authorized to proceed with the necessary engineering plans and call for bids for the construction of the Embarcadero extension and the Morro Creek bridge. The motion was seconded by Councilman Keiser and unanimously carried by roll call vote with Mayor Mallery absent. Mr. Little informed the Council that because of the status of the gas tax funds, it will be necessary to have two contracts for this project: one for the bridge and one for the balance of the work. Discussion was held concerning the new lessee paying for these improvements over a period of time through the lease rental. 0 0 MINUTES - MORRO Regular Meeting Page Three BAY CITY COUNCIL January 13, 1970 A=3 Report of progress in establishing a scenic highway between Atascadero and Morro Bay - Highway 41 Mr. Little read a memorandum report from Ned Rogoway, Planning Director, concerning the progress being made in attempts to designate Atascadero Road as a scenic highway. A corridor plan has been completed by the State Division of Highways:and a report is being formulated in the County Planning Department which will be submitted to the City Planning Commission early this year. Mr. Rogoway indicated it would appear that Highway 41 does qualify to be designated as a scenic highway and recommended that any action on this matter by the City Council be delayed until the time for hearing on this report.
