HEARING School Building (DENIED) Rio Hondo Request by the Rio Hondo Preparatory School for a variance from the Building Code to allow an air supported building to be placed on its property on the portion within the City limits. Staff submitted a report and recommended denial based on the findings of the Fire Chief, Director of Public Works, Planning and the Building Departments. -I Mayor Saelid declared the hearing open and William Barbo, 46 E. Woodruff o,','~' r Avenue, Designer and Engineer for the school project, stated in part that they desire to construct this building for a use of about 18 , ~odths in which to house their activities during the construction ~~AA ., period of a five million dollar permanent building. The air supported building would then be moved to their property in Wrightwood. He also submitted that conditional use permit applications have been filed with the County and the City for the new building. Mr. Barbo said in part that the recommended conditions which have been listed, should Council approve his application, would present no problem and they would comply fully. The Fire Chief stated in part that he could not approve the request because of the danger to life and property which could occur from a fire--that smoke does not escape from this type of building and it does not meet the minimum requirements of the Building Code. He noted that a fire station does not exist in that locality and he could not approve the request..that he only included the conditions listed in his staff report in the event Council did approve the request. 12-6-77 - 1 - HEARING ASSESSMENT DISTRICT 76-1 ]/30~ 22: 931:lU Mr. Barbo further stated that no one wants to create a fire hazard.. that the requested type of structure was thoroughly investigated before they gave it any consideration in the first place and that it is approved by the Building Officials of Americs. He related the operation of the air system and its backup system. A continuous inspection procedure would be welcome and that this type of facility can be fully insured. No one else desiring to be heard the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Lauber and carried unanimously. Discussion ensued and it was the consensus of Council that it would like to accommodate the request however based on the staff recom- mendations and in particular that of the Fire Chief, it was MOVED by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Margett and carried on roll call vote as follows that the request be and it is hereby DENIED. AYES: Members Gilb, Lauber, Margett, Parry, Saelid NOES: None I ABSENT: None Central Area Street and Parking Improvements (Assessment District 76-1). Staff advised on the procedure to be followed for this CONTINUED hearing. It was noted that new bids for the project had been received and submitted for Council consideration. Evaluations have been accomplished and staff recommended the contract award to the low bidder. The effect of this bid would reduce the estimated assessments for each individual property owner. It was further noted that the Parking Place Commission had reviewed the project and recommended that the City Council make a contribution of $18,000 to offset the land cost for the price of city property adjacent to the Medical Center. The Commission also recommended an additional cash contribution of $50,000 from the Capital Improvement Account. Changes in the cost estimates and assessments in the Engineer's report were set forth in the staff report dated December 6, 1977. The change in the spread of assessments were indicated in percentages as follows: Total project costs down 10.8% City contributions down 6.3% Assessable costs down 12.7% Amount assessed to the Area of Primary Benefit down 12.7% Amount assessed to the Area of Secondary Benefit down 12.7% Council also received a list of preliminary estimated assessments for each parcel within the District and the new amount for each parcel based on the reduced cost outlined above. No additional written or oral protests have been received and Mayor Saelid continued the hearing. In response to an inquiry Richard Carlson was advised on the amount of the new assessment and terms of the bond. Tam Lake, Stone & Youngberg, answered questions concerning the differential in the term of the bonds and the premium to retire a bon~ - all provided for in the Improvement Bond Act of 1915. I Cou~cil then considered the recommendations of the Parking Place Commission and it was the consensus of the City Council that it would be in favor of the $18,000 contribution to offset the cost of the land which amount is reflected in the following total assessable cost: Cost of construction Contingencies Incidental expenses Land acquisition cost $146,097.20 7,305.80 44,352.00 18,000.00 .' $215,755.00 Less estimated contributions by the City 83,771.00 $131,984.00 12-6-77 - 2 - I I RESOLUTION NO. 4677 ADOPTED ~ /3&'- .:...;,.,.... . - 1-<'~'. 22:9381 James Helms, Parking Place Commissioner, recalled the history of this matter and stated in part that the City is not really contributing to the project; that discussion should be directed to contributing some real money to accept the responsibility that the City Council creamd a number of years ago when it approved the Towne Center. Because the City created the situation he felt it should also bear a greater financial responsibility and it has always been foresee- able that the parking problem would grow. It's not a question of hardship on the part of the individual property owners.. but a question of whose responsibility it is and he felt the City should put up additional money along with that required of the merchants. Bill Connelly, Downtown Business Association, felt there is much which is not clear and in response to his question Mr. Lake of Stone and Youngberg advised in part that there would be a 30 day period in which the property owners could pay all or a portion of his assessment, after which there would be a 5 percent prepayment penalty. Dennis Lojeski, Parking Place Commissioner, supported the remarks of Mr. Helms and submitted that the three absent members of the Commission are of the same opinion. They all would like to see an additional $50,000 contributed from the ,Capital Improvement Account. Paul Fry who is in the process of purchasing 30 S. First Avenue was advised that his location is not within the project area. No one else desiring to be heard the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by Member Lauber, 'seconded by Member GLIb and carried unanimously. It was MOVED by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Lauber and carried on roll call vote as follows that the City Council authorize a cash contribution from the Capital Improvement Account in the amount of $18,000. AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Council Members Gilb, Lauber, Margett, Parry, Saelid None None It was further MOVED by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Margett that an additional $50,000 be placed in the project from the Capital Improvement Account. Following considerable discussion this Motion was WITHDRAWN and Member Margett withdrew his second. Member Lauber stated in part that she could not in good conscience support the additional $50,000 and referred to Parking District No. 1 which is in need of repair and the possibility of a third district being formed in West Arcadia, which will be in need of assistance at some future point. She could not see any hardship reflected in the assessments as presented. At this point the owner of the property on which the post office stands on Wheeler Street spoke to its assessment and was advised that the amount now would be approximately $1,674 per year with a total assessment of $18,018 for both of his parcels. He agreed with Mr. Helms and asked Council to favorably consider a further con- tribution of ~50,000. Council continued its deliberations and it was pointed out that with the $18,000 the City's contribution has been increased from the $65,771 to a total of $83,771. F.
