City Hall.

The City Council reviewed the 1978-79 portion of the Five-Year
Capital Projects Program and in view of pending legislation relating
to property taxes the items will be considered at a later date. Some
indication was given to those items which might be deleted or reduced
if it becomes imperative. In any event a public hearing is scheduled
for this program for March 21 and ,further consideration will be
given specific projects.
The Fire Chief reported on the current status of Marquee West - that
it is expected that all of the violations will be corrected by Friday
of this week. That the Code for public assembly buildings must be
complied with and if not the legal process will be pursued.
The Recreation Commission recommended to the City Council that steps
be taken for the closure of California Street and that the First
Avenue Junior High School baseball diamond be relocated to the
southwest corner of Santa Anita and Diamond; that the footb~ll
field be situated in a north/south direction extending into what is
now California Street. Lighting for both fields was already re-
commended. (The City Council had asked the Commission to make
recommendation.)
The Planning Director submitted that the La Pinada Restaurant at the
southeast corner of Second and Foothill were displaying a sign
larger than that allowed by the Code; that an application for such
permission was filed but the sign had been put up prior to any
decision. It would be for a temporary anniversary celebration.
Discussion ensued and it was MOVED by Member Gilb, seconded by Member
Parry and carried on roll call vote as follows that the application
for the oversized banner be DENIED but that permission be granted
for a temporary sign in conformance with the dimensions allowed
(32 sq. ft.).

Member Margett had indicated earlier in the discussion that he would
be inclined to go ahead and allow the banner to remain as long as it
is on a temporary basis anyway and had suggested a two week period.
Staff advised that the cable television franchise with Teleprompter
will expire April 2; that staff has been in the process of negotiating
a new franchise, however, additional time is needed to complete a
draft of a new ordinance and hold a required public hearing. A 90
day periodiwas-recommended. It was MOVED by Member Lauber, seconded
by Member Parry and carried unanimously that a 90 day extension be
APPROVED.
