It was MOVED by Councilman Pellegrino, seconded by Councilman Haltom
and carried that the ordinances and resolutions be read by title only
and the reading in full be WAIVED.
CONTINUED - Pursuant to State Legislation the Planning Department
initiated a Text Amendment for second unit housing within the R-M,
R-O and R-l single family zones upon the granting of a Conditional
Use Permit. The Planning Commission felt that the State Law was not
appropriate for Arcadia because it would essentially turn the City's
single-family zones into R-2 [medium density multiple-family] zones
which might create adverse impact on the public welfare of those who
own homes in the single-family zone. A sample ordinance was submitted
to Council for review. At the September 20 Council meeting the hearing
was continued to this date. The Senior Citizen Commission reviewed the
Commission's suggested development standards and made recommendations
as set forth in its communication dated October 18 and is contained in
the material before Council at this time.
Mayor Lojeski declared the hearing open and Herb Fletcher, 175 W.
Lemon Avenue, stated in part that there is a very definite need to
have sufficient legislation to allow second units in certain areas
and if it is handled properly it would not destroy R-l neighborhoods
but would enhance them.
He submitted further in part that economic times have changed and
young people find it very difficult to even rent. He brought atten-
tion to the downtown area south of Huntington Drive, north of Duarte
Road and east of Santa Anita Avenue and noted the lack of high rise
development although it has been so zoned. He felt there 'is an oppor-
tunity now and urged Council and staff to give this serious considera-
tion.

Joe Sargis, 1611 Highland Oaks Drive, spoke to the area referred to
by Mr. Fletcher in particular and said in part that the reason this
property is not selling is because when the H-overlay was placed on
the properties everyone thought they could sell for a million dollars..
this never material ized and it never will. He felt. if it were con-
stitutional the thing to do would be to isolate an area for senior
citizen housing... the units could be small enough to accommodate
the senior citizens by setting specific standards. If the developer
were sincere enough he could charge reduced rentals and provide a lot
of housing for them. And with reference to the State Legislation he
felt the State doesn't have the right to legislate what the City can
and cannot do withfits property as to zoning matters. He urged Council
to adopt the recommended Te~t Amendment and then, if so desired, direct
staff or the Commission to iook closely at the subject area (the down-
town area) and reduce the lot size standards using the area specifi-
cally for senior citizens.
No one else de?iring to be heard the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by
Councilman Pellegrino, seconded by Councilman Hannah and carried.

Councilman Haltom said in part that the issue before Council is -
does Council want to allow families the latitude of having their
parents near them... He noted the size of lots in the southern part
of the city -- around 240 feet deep. He felt those property owners
who would like to place a second unit on their land for their parents
should be permitted to do it legally... util ities are in, the sewer
is in, the water is there from the existing house. A covenant could
be executed by the owner that only the parents will occupy the unit
and the covenant would not go with a new owner. He would be very
pleased to get this through for senior citizens and perhaps later
legislation could be passed for the young people.
Councilman Hannah referred to the County Rental Assistance Program
and noted that only 34 persons in the City have taken advantage of
this over a period of years, so he questioned whether or not this
particular State legislation really appl ies to Arcadia... Arcadia is
endeavoring to provide senior citizen housing and it should continue
so to do... the elderly should have preferential treatment but he did
not see the need for legislating zoning in Arcadia.
Councilman Pellegrino had concerns about this legislation.. that there
is a definite need but he has problems with the enforcement of the
rules... newer communities will probably not have the deep 200 and 300
foot lots... Arcadia is an older community with an excess of property
some of which is really a waste. He submitted there is need for housing
for the young also and this should be addressed at some time.
Mayor Lojeski submitted in part that this type of State Legi'slation is
definitely state meddling at its worst... that historically there has
been careful zoning which has played a major role in the development of
the City.. that the citizens are proud of Arcadia as a city of beautiful
homes and he fears this reputation may be tarnished... that if the State
mandates something which is definitely a local issue then the state I
should provide some sort of appropriate reimbursement Jor all costs bor
by the city in its implementation. He was concerned about enforcing th
conditions of such second unit housing permits; also what happens if th
owner dies or leaves the property... He would like to preserve the char
acter of the neighborhoods throughout the city.
Mayor Lojeski said further in part that such issues are best addressed
by those on the local level who are part of the local environment..
He would support an ordinance setting forth requisite findings to pre-
clude such housing within the city and he expressed interest in direct-
ing staff to look at the possible rezoning of the H zoned property east
of Santa Anita and perhaps reduce the size of the standards of develop-
ment.
Mayor Lojeski then MOVED to direct staff to draft an ordinance setting
forth requisite findings to preclude second units within the City
provided for by Section 65852.2(c) of the Cal iforniil'Governmen't;" Co'de:

Appeal filed by Dr. John Gottuso from the decision of the Planning
Commission in its denial of his application for a Conditional Use
Permit for a church at 141 W. Las Tunas Drive. The Commission had
found that there was not adequate parking space and the proposed off-
site parking was too far from the proposed church.
Mayor Lojeski declared the hearing open and Dr. Guttuso, 370 W. Las
Flores Avenue, spoke at' length on what is proposed... there would be
two services on Sunday - one in the morning and one at night - there
would be Bible study one night a week. He noted that the facility
is now being used as a pre-school.. they had invested their total
savings to purchase the property in order to have a church ministry.
He explained in detail just what they are endeavoring to do... there
will not be any social events... they are into personal growth.
As to the parking there would be sufficient on the church property
and they would not need to use parking across the street as originally
planned. There would never be more than 50 persons in attendance..
based on the 4 to 1 ratio there would be about 12 parking spaces and
with some redesigning there could be more in the rear of the building.
Henr~ Barbosa, 617 S. Olive Street, Los Angeles, attorney for the
app11cant, said in part that the City Code does not specifically set
a formula for a church .. that Dr. Guttuso would never have more than
the 50 persons at anyone time and submitted that the Fire Department
had said the building would be suitable for up to 180 persons, however,
that would not be in Dr. Guttuso's plans. Mr. Barbosa detailed how the
parking could be realigned to meet the need. A plot olan of the park-
ing was circulated among the. Council. In response to a question as .to
why the new plan was not submitted to the Planning Commission Mr. Barbosa
said in part that Dr. Guttuso was not represented by counsel at that time
and has since been in a position to determine the way in which the park-
ing requirement could be met.
A resident of 334 Eldorado was advised on what the Council is facing
with this issue -- it is seeing a plan different from that reviewed by
the Planning Commission --- and if she had any underlying theories to
please put them to rest.
An adjacent neighbor said in part that he feels confident Dr. Guttuso
would not abuse conditions set forth by the Council; that he under-
stands what they are trying to do... the congregation is concerned with
personal growth and urged approval.
Paul Quakkelstein, 159 W. Sandra Avenue, expressed opposition to the
proposal.. he felt the site is not good for a church.. that with the
pre-school they are having a lot of on-street parking and probably
will have more if the church is approved. He also felt there is a
possibility the property in the back of the subject house may in time
be purchased to join the church.
Dr Guttuso responded in part that they have no interest in the house
on Sandra... it has been sold and their facility is fully self-con-
tained.
No one else desiring to be heard the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by
Councilman Pellegrino, seconded by Councilman Haltom.
Discussion ensued on whether or not to send the matter back to the
Planning Commission due to the new parking plan.. Councilman Haltom
felt the matter could be expedited .. it is not a structure change or
anything as serious.. that if it is approved it should be justified
to Planning and show the Commission why and if it- is granted.

Councilman Pellegrino submitted in part the conditions on which he
would approve the conditional use permit. (See motion)
Mayor Lojeski was of the opinion that the new parking plan should go
back to the Commission.. there have been substantial changes in what
is before Council and that which the Commission acted upon.. He would
like to have the Commission's input and urged Council to consider
giving this back with the appropriate changes a~ outlined on the new
plan. He felt there is ample time to do this and have it back before
Council by November 1.
Councilman Hannah said he would vote in favor only if the City Attor-
ney would have the last word on whether or not the covenant is legal.
It was then MOVED by Councilman Pellegrino, seconded by Councilman
Haltom and carried on roll call vote as follows that the conditional
use permit be granted as follows:
1. That the maximum occupancy at anyone time shall not exceed 50
persons.
I
2. That required exits shall be installed and that all Fire Safety
requirements shall be complied with to the satisfaction of the
Fire Department.
3. A minimum of nine (9) parking spaces shall be provided consistent
with the plot plan attached and incorporated as part of this res-
olution. The applicant shall maintain a parking-to-occupant ratio
of 1 to 4, on-site; however, in no event shall occupancy exceed
50 persons, nor the maximum parking exceed 12 spaces on-site.
4. That the church shall not operate until all conditions of approval
have been complied with.
5. That C.U.P. 83-16 'shall not take effect until the owner and appli-
cant have executed a form available at the Planning Department in-
dicating awareness and acceptance of the conditions of approval.
6. Occupancy in excess of 50 persons shall be deemed an expansion of
an existing use pursuant to A.M.C. 9275.2.16, and is therefore
not permitted pursuant to this Conditional Use Permit. Applicant
shall permit inspection of premises subject to C.U.P. 83-16 by a
City inspector at all times while such premises are in use and
shall upon request provide the City with any information deemed
necessary by City to determine occupancy numbers related to church
use and church-related activities.
7. This Conditional Use Permit may be revoked if any of the conditions
set forth in this resolution, or any valid regulation of the City
is violated.
8. That a covenant (and any other agreement deemed necessary by the
City Attorney) in a form and content approved by the City Attorney I
shall be recorded noting that the owners of the subject property
will not offer or attempt to sell, dispose or otherwise alienate
the property as a church use, and further, upon any sale or dis-
position of the property, the Conditional Use Permit for a church
will lapse and expire of its own terms, and the property will ther~~
fore be sold only as a pre-school. Plus other conditions deemed
necessary to assure enforcibi1ity of these conditions.

Mayor Lojeski declared the hearing open and no one desiring to be
heard the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by Councilman Hannah, seconded
by Councilman Haltom and carried. Due to a possible conflict of in-
terest Councilman Pellegrino did not participate in this matter.
During this consideration Mayor Lojeski expressed concern on the 50
foot width of the lot which is very deep and felt the project would
be better served if the developer could obtain the adjacent property.
Staff submitted in part that the property has been zoned R-3 for at
least 15 years and there are many such lots especially in the down-
town area. In the future the tentative maps wjll carry sufficient and
clear information for Council review.
It was MOVED by Councilman Hannah, seconded by Mayor Lojeski and car-
ried on roll call vote as follows that the Negative Declaration be
approved and filed, find that the project will not have a significant
effect on the environment, that the Director of Public Works be
AUTHORIZED to approve the subdivision and that the tentative map be
APPROVED subject to all conditions set forth in the staff report of
October 18, 1983.

AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION
Herb Fletcher, 175 W. Lemon Avenue, spoke to the excellent water
supply enjoyed by Arcadia and felt a study is in order to estimate
average costs and perhaps find a way to reduce consumer costs. He
also referred to the so-called Granny Law relating to second unit
housing within the R-r~, R-O and R-l single family zones and the Text
Amendment prepared and reviewed by the Planning Commission. The Com-
mission felt the State Law [SB 1534] is not appropriate for this City
and a sample ordinance was prepared and submitted setting forth the
requisite findings to preclude second units within the City. Earlier
in this meeting the Council had approved the Commission's recommenda-
tion. Mr. Fletcher submitted in part that in his opinion the Council
did not study the issue sufficiently; that certain areas of the City
needed personal review and asked - as a public announcement -'that
anyone interested in dividing the City into Districts to contact him.

ACCEPTED the recommendation of staff and rejected the one bid re-
ceived for the relief sewer construction at Huntington Drive and
Second Avenue - Job No. 546 - due to the fact that the bid from
A & A Pipeline, Inc., was 30% over the estimate and that only one
was received. It was staff's observation that at a later date this
project might be combined with another relief sewer jOb to make a
more attractive bid package.
ACCEPTEO the work and AUTHORIZED final payment to Sully-Miller Con-
tracting Company in the surface reconstruction of Santa Anita Avenue.
Colorado Boulevard to Camino Real - Job No. 522 - pursuant to the terms
of the contract. Final contract amount of $296,085 was funded 86.22%
with Federal Aid Urban Funds with the balance funded by State Gas Tax
Funds. The 350 foot extension increased the project cost of $14,067.25
and was funded entirely by State Gas Tax Funds. $364,810.50 was appro-
priated for this project.
AUTHORIZED the purchse from Mission Chevrolet for a total cost of
~17,229.23 of one 1/2 ton Pickup Truck and one one-ton Cab and Chassis.
The 1/2 Ton Pickup Truck is to be a replacement for the Water Department
and the l-Ton Cab and Chassis is to be a replacement truck for the Pub-
lic Works Department. The pickup is in the Capital Projects Budget,
Water Division, for $10,500. The l-Ton Cab and Chassis is in the Equip-
ment Replacement Fund for $14,000 [FY 1983-84J.
APPROVED the proposed Coyote Control Agreement with the County Agricul-
tural Commissioner for the FY 1983-84 and AUTHORIZED the City Manager
to execute the agreement in form approved by the .City Attorney. The

Staff advised that six bids were received in response to the City's
Request for Proposals for a new City phone system. They were evaluated
by the City's telepohone consultant, Don Bushor of COM Systems, Inc.
and ECI Communications was judged as meeting the basic bid requirements.
The consultant evaluated the system's hardware, software, maintenance
and costs as well as the vendor's training programs and ability to meet
the City's installation schedule. Total cost of the system is $143,986.
The system will require trunk and line installations from Pacific Tele-
phone at a cost of approximately $3,705. Total installation and pur-
chase price is estimated at $147,691. It was recommended that the system
be purchased on a cash basis rather than a lease/purchase option basis.

In addition to the basic equipment the consultant recommends that the
City purchase all electronic phone instruments rather than the mechanical
touch tone instruments as indicated in the vendor's bid. The additional
cost would be $6,000 thus making the total purchase price and installation
at $153,691. Due to the complexities involved in installing a phone sys-
cem the consultant also recommends that a 10% contingency fee be authorized
'Ihich amounts to $15,309. Staff recommended purchasing the electronic
instruments and the addition of the contingency fee. The entire system
including the Fire Department, City Yards, City Hall, Police and the li-
brary is expected to be operational by January 1, 1984.
Whereupon it was MOVED by Councilman Pelleorino, seconded by Councilman
Haltom and carried on roll call vote as follows that $169,000 be author-
ized from the Capital Outlay Fund for the purchase of a new city tele-
phone system from ECI Communications, Inc.

Councilman Hannah brought up the present practice of an applicant,
who has had his project disapproved by the Planning Commission, appeals
the decision to the City Council. Sometimf's the Council is presented
with an entirely new or different plan froll those reviewed by the Com-
mission... and the Council at times overru es the Commission. It was
felt that this is procedurally incorrect a Id the need for guidelines
was submitted... perhaps whereby the appl' :ant would be advised that
if the Commission denies his proposal he wJuld have the opportunity
of revising his plans and the Commission would then act on the new
proposal. Staff will prepare an ordinance for Council consideration
to this effect.
The meeting adjourned in memory of Dr. Charles Shore who passed away
recently in Los Angeles. Dr. Shore was associated with Drs. Ritter
and McCauley for over 20 years, and was on the staff at Methodist
Hospital. He is survived by his wife Frances, and two daughters.
