ROLL CALL PRESENT: ABSENT: Counci1members Chandler, Gilb, Lojeski, Young and Harbicht None AGENDA ITEM Public Hearing scheduled for June 7, 1988 for the following: KOALA Petition for street lights - Le Roy Avenue from Santa Anita Avenue to El Monte Avenue. BANDvlCounci1member Lojeski, referring to his memo to the Council, stating the Koala Band from Australia will be coming to Arcadia in July of 1989 rather than 1988 ... Council should place that date on their calendars. if SISTER CITY COMMISSION RECEPTION FOR LOU DODD Also, in reference to his memo, Councilmember Lojeski related that the reception will be this June for Lou Dodd, Arcadia High School teacher. He is leaving for Australia in July and is quite excited to be the teacher selected for this honor. In reference to the pins and the American and Australian flags mentioned in the memo, Councilmember Gilb stated he has already given those items and perhaps Lou Dodd would not want to take them with him. Counci1member Lojeski commented that either Lou Dodd or the Sister City Commission Chair, Marie Schmitt, may request a proclamation also -- there is still plenty of time before this is needed. Lou also requested a City flag to present to the school in Australia, if Council agrees. Counci1- member Gi1b thought the City flag was a good idea. Since Barbara Sae1id is in charge of arranging the reception for Lou, perhaps we could communicate with her on the flag situation. j WILKINSON PROPERTY MAINTENANCE I SECURITY BARS I,> , ~\~~ V' A brief discussion ensued relating to a letter received by Council from a resident who had received a notice from Code Enforcement for poor property maintenance after the resident had requested that Code Enforcement come to her property and look into another situation taking place on the property. Mayor Harbicht has requested a report on this matter ... he will send a letter of explanation to the resident. ~ Council discussed the iron grates installed on various business establish- ments throughout the City. This subject has been discussed by Council in the past ... no action had been taken. It was suggested that this issue be taken up again, for the commercial buildings only, before iron bars go up on the outside of commercial buildings allover the City. It was also put forth that this matter be placed on the agenda for a possible ordinance outlining what is or is not acceptable. The City Manager suggested drafting a proposed ordinance which would prohibit grating on the oust ide of commercial buildings and present it at the next council meeting for Council consideration. The City Attorney suggested, also, that a lot of material has already been prepared on this subject and it could be brought back before Council at that time. This was agreeable to all.
