Mayor Parry then declared the hearing open. ALL REMARKS MADE BY THE FOLLOWING SPEAKERS ARE RECORDED AND ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK. SUMMARY FOLLOWS : Gordon Maddock, stated in part that the Jarvis-Gann Proposition 13 is basically one of tax reform which means that taxes are changed drastically and the systems have to be adjusted to fit within the structure. He then spoke as President of the Arcadia Board of Realtors, in part - that the Board did not believe that the proposed property transfer tax, sewer service charge, street sweeping charge and other taxes which are being considered, represent the will of the people who voted for the Proposition. He urged the City Council to abandon the adoption of the ordinances and form an ad hoc committee to assist in reducing the budget. He concluded his remarks in part stating that if the City Council imposes any undesirable tax prior to July 1 the Board will actively seek the repeal of any tax by means of a referendum. I Mrs. Sherry Passmore, 1109 Columbia Rd., stated in part that the first step on the part of the City Council should be for total tax reform. She made reference to her position on redevelopment and suggested that the Agency return to the City the monies it has spent which would amount to some $900,000. She referred to an agenda item which concerned the retention of a consultant. She felt this work could be performed by staff. She also felt the City does not have to subsidize the Chamber of Commerce to bring business into the City. She also felt if additional revenue is needed and presented to the citizens they will vote for it if it is necessary. ,'1; Gary Dorn, 912 Panorama, referred in part to the amount already cut from the proposed budget of $11,758,000; however, the appropriation for 1977-78 was $11,263,000 - $495,000 less than the proposed budget for 1978-79. If one takes the cuts which have been made in relation to what the budget was or the appropriation for 1977-78 $300,000 has been cut from the budget or 2.5% of the total budget. He felt the Cities will not be totally void of property tax because of what will be forthcoming from the State. He referred to some of the proposed fee increases and property transfer tax which is being considered. He felt the City Council, as an elected body, will take care of the items which must be considered and that the citizens will provide all the support it needs. . ~ 'I . ~\ , ;.)' -' Roy Spiers, 312 W. Palm Drive, spoke at length submitting in part that the City Council in concert with other cities should make the message known at the State level that the citizens are through being fleeced and while the citizens may take out its initial ire on the City Councils the demand must be made at the State level that they stop providing unwise mandates on cities and counties and that the monies which are presently collected in the form of sales and income tax must be passed on to the proper agency so the cities and counties will be able to function wisely and properly. He also referred to the City of Sunnyvale and recommended that the City Council look into its fire and police operations.. it is a combined operation.. that this could bring in a million dollar saving to the City. I .~ . ;,~ .. ,,'... Kevin Barry, 1639 Oakhaven Drive, referred to a property transfer tax which is under consideration by the City Council and read a section of Proposition 13 relating to the imposition of special taxes except ad valorem taxes on real property or a transaction tax or sales tax on the sale of real property. He felt the City Council should not be studying ways of introducing additional revenue into the budget; that it should consider how much money it has coming in and make choices which it has been elected so to do. He felt the people have made their feelings known by passing Proposition 13 and the next move is up to the City Council. . o Milton Bade, 63 Birchcroft, spoke as a builder of many projects within the City and referred to the parks and recreation fees which he has paid in connection with building permits. He felt the recreation activities 6-20-78 - 2 - I I~ A~~AI~M CONTINUED TO JULY 5 I J3 I 23:9551 could be self-supporting. He asked Council to pursue other avenues of reve' nue and not tax the residents and expressed concern that the Library hours were being considered for reduction, He offered his assistance if nee At this point Mrs, Edna Haacke commented that non-residents pay a fee for Library use. Rene Topalian, 110 W. LeRoy Avenue, reiterated his suggestions made at a previous meeting concerning reductions. He felt most of the reductions made thus far do not involve reduction of personnel and he was pleased to see that, He felt the City Council has made some excellent moves in terms of making recreation at least as self supporting as possible. He asked the City Council to look very hard at the complexities of some of the areas it is forced to cut and felt the creation of an ad hoc committee should be broad enough to represent all interests. Ernest Fox, 731 Fairview Avenue, reiterated his statements made at a previous meeting and felt any reductions should be on a priority basis... that police, fire and paramedics should have the first priority - that the Library hours could be reduced further. With reference to official meetings he was advised that most of those have been taken from the budget. Rita Pithey, 1765 Oakwood, expressed concern about the proposed property transfer tax and felt it should not be adopted - especially prior to July 1. Ed Passmore, 1109 Columbia Road, stated in part that if he is going to receive some disposable money as a result of Proposition 13 he is going to donate it to a tax deductible source and suggested others do the same, He felt the City and other small cities should countermand the pressures from the State and demand their fair share. He expressed empathy to the City Council and did not envy their task. He suggested the possibility that some of the city functions could become separate businesses .... the street sweeping service for instance. Jeff Dring, 205 Alice Street, spoke at length concerning the mandate of Proposition 13 and asked the City Council not to violate the spirit of the law and pass additional taxing ordinances prior to July l....not to shift taxes but to cut in order to meet the budget... operate with what the City has and if there isn't sufficient income then cut further. The item scheduled for a public hearing - zone change at 671 Naomi to the northwest corner of Naomi and Lovell including 1307 - 1315 Lovell - was continued to July 5. Those in the audience who were interested in this concurred on the date. This was so MOVED by Councilman Gilb, seconded by Councilman Pellegrino and carried unanimously. It will be the first item on the agenda for that date. Sam Moriana, 826 Camino Grove, also felt the police and fire should not be cut.. only as a last resort....as a suggestion he said the City Council might consider divesting itself of the w~ter department... that it could become a private enterprise; that the residents would be willing to pay for recreational activities. He would rather see administration reduced instead of the safety departments. The Police Chief responded to his inquiry about manning the police cars. John Joseph, 408 N. First Avenue, stated in part that he thinks the City Council is on the right track in its deliberations and felt the suggestion for a committee was unnecessary.. that the City Council has been voted in to make the decisions. Donna Maloney, 1710 S. Third Avenue, referred to school classes and felt if people pay for a class they will stay in the class. William Groen, 1022 La Cadena, made reference to something he has heaId concerning the possibility of a sizeable surplus in the City coffers... The Finance Director responded to this with figures and suggested Mr. Groen come into the office for further data, 6-20-78 - 3 - 23:9552 Richard Haskell, 1634 S. Mayflower Avenue, asked if it were not possible for the race track to pay for the traffic control provided by the City during race seasons because the track will benefit also from the reduction in property taxes.,.. He realized that Proposition 13 has brought about a crisis but felt there are things which can be cut.. He felt there is an immediate cash flow from the race track and Fashion Park. Mr, Haskell was advised on the proposed increase in admission tax and Mr. McKinley of Santa Anita Consolidated explained some of the economics of the race track business. Mike Ransom, 243 E. Colorado Blvd" stated in part that the idea propounded by Mr, Spiers concerning combining the police and fire departments sounds better to him than many of the systems he has observed throughout the country. He pursued some of the items which are under consideration in an endeavor to reduce the budget and referred to agenda items which perhaps are not really necessary, i.e., screening of the Orange Grove tennis court. When he voted for 13 he was aware that some of the services would have to be cut.. Pearl Scanlon, 461 W. Palm Drive, told of her work in obtaining signatures for the initiative and the people want a tax cut, not a ta~ shift. She felt the police and fire should have priority and what the City can afford thereafter the people will accept. I Bill Krumm, 1626 Rodeo Road, said in part he would not like to lose some of the amenities which caused him to purchase his home here in the first place - however he did not favor a committee as the City Council 'fully understands the situation and will do everything it can. ~ V \ Phil Davenport, 225 W. Norman Avenue, also felt the City Council is awar~ of the problem and it doesn't need to rely on a citizen's committee or anything other than an occasional bit of input. He felt the situation should have been explored months ago, however, he submitted some areas which might be considered.,. perhaps a merger of the police with the County Sheriff's Department; that perhaps contract for projects being done now by the Public Works Department. o Herb Fletcher, 175 W. Lemon Avenue, stated in part that he is in favor of tax reductions but that those who have spoken want it done in a matter of two weeks which he felt would be very costly in the long run. He suggested that the City Council proceed with the proposed sewer and street sweeping charges, the realty transfer tax and adopt the budget like it always has done. That the ordinances may always be rescinded at a later date. He submitted that the City Council represents over 45,000 residents and not just the possible 200 at this meeting; that it must make decisions as best it can. , Q . . , . June Wilson, 1043 Cyrus Lane, stated in part that the people have spoken,. that they want lower taxes and they want the City to be run efficiently and economically wise. She felt if the increase in business license fees is adopted many businesses would leave the City.. She was in favor of increased fees for recreation activities, tennis cOurts and the like, Walt Muller, Westerner Motor Hotel, expressed concern at the POSSibilityl_ of the 5% occupancy tax being raised to 6% as under consideration by the City Council. He felt it is significant to his guests - travellers and tourists who are spending their money in the community by sales tax, restaurants, clothing and the like. He asked the City Council to reconsider. ~~ Francis Fitzgerald, 1718 El Vista Circle, stated in part that the tax situation now is everyone's fault --- because over the years the people have demanded from its governmental officials the very best in schools, playgrounds and the like. The people are now at the point where they are willing to accept less or they would not have voted for Proposition 13, He would like to see the people have the opportunity to vote on specific items... to see if they do or do not want some services, ~ . , 6-20-78 - 4 - I } I BUDGET HEARING CONTINUED GILB EXCUSED I HEARING FIRST AVENUE SCHOOL PIA YGROUND '( 1 ~q 1 ,'~' . ,..,.' ~ '\..' , . - . 23:9553 Walter Reed, President of the Arcadia Police Relief Association, said he has been studying the budget as well as the five-year plan because it is his job to negotiate a wage package this year. This has become difficult because of Proposition 13. He did not see where the City Council could make the cuts necessary to make up the amount of money the City will lose without cutting personnel. He too did not want to see a cut in the police personnel and hoped the City Council can find a better way. The people do not seem to want additional costs and then the only alternative is to cut service. He' simply did not have an answer at this time. John Raycraft, 600 San Luis Rey Road, referred to some of the cuts those in the audience have proposed... because he and others like him moved to the City to enjoy some of the good services.. police, fire, library and the li~e. He asked the City Council to consider those who would not be able to afford any increased charges., Grif Sorenson, 1212 Oaklawn, was advised that 85% of the budget is represented by salaries. Mr. Sorenson felt it is at the point where cutting paper clips, rubber bands, telephones, automobiles and gas would not reduce the budget sufficiently.. that now it has to be in the area of manpower which of course is not desirable. He asked the City Council to give the voters an opportunity to decide whether or not the level of service is going to be adequate. He recalled that when all other school districts were voting down money issues this City gave the local school such support. Joseph Sargis, 1611 Highland Oaks Drive, reminded the City Council that it was elected not by just the few hundred who are at this meeting but by the entire City - that the Councilmen were elected because of the trust of the people - they trust the City Council to make the right decisions for them or the Councilmen would not be in office...the people trust the Council to maintain the quality of life so if hard decisions must'be made he suggested the Council go ahead and pass unfavorable hikes to maintain the city as people expect.. that it is something more than a legal obligation. In response to an inquiry as to when an answer from Sacramento would be forthcoming ... Mayor Parry said in part he did not know arid the City Manager corroborated this observation --- and said further that the amendment stipulates that the tax will be distributed according to law.,. but there is no law.. so it has to come through the normal legislative processes. In response to another inquiry the City Manager explained that the City operates under a constitutional grant of authority. At this time the hearing on the budget was CONTINUED to JUNE 24, 1978 at 8 a.m, in the Council Chamber.
