Due to the desire of members of the City Council for clarification of
a technicality the Minutes of the regular meeting of April 20, 1965
were not approved. Same will appear on agenda for the next regular
meeting.
Mayor Reibold, on behalf of the City Council, presented Councilman
Turne~ with a plaque honoring him for his tenure of Mayor (1964-65).
Planning Commission Resolution No. 543 recommending upon specified
conditions the reclassification of the property located at 653
Fairview Avenue from Zone R-3 to Zone PR-3 and to Zone C-2 and D
(architectural overlay). The applicants, Kent Chevrolet, propose to
use the property for off-street parking, access to Fairview Avenue
and fer construction of an additional service building.
The Planning Director explained that the subject property is now in
Zone R-3 and improved with an older single-family house; that property
to th~ north is in a combination of zones consisting of PR-2, R-3 and
C-O and D and is improved with a number of dwelling units; that
prope~ty to the east is in Zone R-3 and is improved with an apartment
building; that property to the south across Fairview Avenue is in
Zone R-3 but is utilized for public parking; that property to the
west is in Zones C-2 and PR-3 and utilized for public and private
automobile parking purposes. He continued that the site would be
clear~d of a non-conforming use and the property would be improved
with paving and landscaping which would provide a greater space
buffer between the existing apartment house to the east and the
comme~cial activities to the west; that based on these reasons the
Planning Commission recommend that the northerly 100' be reclassified
to ZOne C-2 and to Zone D, and that the southerly 170' be rezoned
to PR-3 with applicable conditions as specified in Resolution No. 543.
After reviewing projecturals of the subject site Mayor Reibold
decla~ed the hearing open and no one responding to his inquiry if
anyon~ desired to speak in favor or in opposition to the proposed

In response to a communication received from Mrs. J. R. Jones,
523 Leda Lane, requesting assistance in solving dust problems
emanating from an adjacent unpaved driveway (1233 S. Sixth Avenue),
the City Council discussed the possibility of legislation which would
require all driveways to be paved. .
I
Mrs. Jones addressed the City Council stating in part that she was
under the impression that the City could aid in the situation. She
was advised that the City has taken all the steps it can under
existing regulations and that perhaps civil action was her remedy at
the present time.
Councilman Considine stated in part that in his op1n1on it would be
well for the City Council to request the Planning Commission and
staff to review the problem of unpaved driveways for ultimate
elimination of the dirt and dust situation.
It was Councilman Balser's observation that the Zoning Ordinance
should include such a provision and suggested a two year deadline for
the paving of driveways,
It was the consensus of the City Council that the Planning Commission
include driveway paving in its current study and endeavor to update
the Zoning Ordinance,
The communication from Mrs. Jones was ordered filed on MOTION by
Councilman Turner, seconded by Councilman Forman and carried
unanimously.
The City Council in accord with the recommendation of the City
Manager that the City oppose the election-at-large provision of
Senate Bill No, 6, ADOPTED the following minute motion as made by
Councilman Turner, seconded by Councilman Considine and carried
unanimously:
"RESOLVED that regardless of the ultimate number of Senators who will
represent Los Angeles County, whether it be 15, 12 or some other
number, the economies of the situation make it most impractical if
not impossible for the average candidate to campaign in a general
election in the County at large; that this would eventually lead to
candidates soliciting campaign contributions from 'major commercial
interests thereby tending to eliminate the grass roots approach
which the District philosophy embodies, therefore, this City Council
opposes that portion of S en ate Bill No. 6 that would have Senators
elected at large from Los Angeles County and directs copies of this
minute resolution to Senator Rees, Assemblyman Flournoy and
Assemblyman Collier,"

gone out of their way to help motorists; taking persons to and from
service stations for fuel when they have run out of gas; things of
this nature which are generally over and beyond the requirements of
their normal duties. I think they should be commended for their
efforts and this is a compliment to the City forces, I would like
them to know we appreciate their efforts in this regard.lI

maximum of $90,000 be approved in this manner: $50,000 for street
resurfacing by contract and $40,000 maintenance of streets by city
forces.
Discussion ensued with Councilman Considine suggesting that sidewalks
along Duarte Road and Baldwin Avenue be constructed concurrent with
the widening of the same streets which is reflected in the work
projects under the State Gas Tax Program for 1965-66; that in this
manner sidewalks could be constructed in the subject areas at a
minimum of cost to the City although the cost for same must come from
Capital Projects Account. The City Manager explained that State Gas
Tax Funds may be used for intersection sidewalks only which is a
minor part of the total construction of sidewalks.
I
Expressing a desire for an estimate of the cost for the construction
of sidewalks at the same time the above mentioned streets are widened,
MOTION was made by Councilman Turner, seconded by Councilman Forman'
and carried unanimously that staff be instructed to provide the
Capital Projects Committee with projective figures for the con-
struction of sidewalks in the two areas mentioned.

Mrs. George Mason, 505 Los Altos, was informed in answer to her
inquiry that the City staff has not been doing any engineering work
on her street. This is in connection with proposed Tract No. 30231 -
extension of Los Altos.
Kermit Hartzler, President of the Arcadia Business Association,
presented a petition requesting and urging the City Council to take
steps to create a Community Redevelopment Agency as soon as possible;
that no involvement be permitted in any Federal Redevelopment program
nor any involvement be permitted in any residential area; that it be
restricted to 1) industrial property located east of Peck Road and
south of Live Oak Avenue in the City of Arcadia and 2) commercial
property as outlined in the Central Area Plan. A reply was requested.
Tom C, Sullivan, 160 White Oak Drive, spoke in support of the
petition presented by Mr, Hartzler and commented on the opposition to
the creation of the Agency.
James S. Bartlett, 855 Hugo Reid Drive, spoke in opposition to the
creation of the Agency with the power of eminent domain,
Troop No. 116 was recognized..
The City Manager advised that in connection with the bids received
