First Avenue, suggested to the City Council that consideration be given to the establishment of a Senior Commission and submitted various ways in which this could be accomplished.

Lemon Avenue, referred to a matter which was presented to the City Council some time ago - that of providing housing for the elderly. The City Manager advised that staff is looking into this and will submit a report as soon as sufficient information is obtained. Mrs. Johanna Hofer, 875 Monte Verde Road, supported the creation of a Senior Commission. She also asked about the disposition of her communication which she read in full at the January 17 Council meeting. She was advised that Council had received copies and inasmuch as she was a candidate for City Council in the forthcoming Municipal Election the matters would probably be covered during Forums. In response to her inquiry about matters presented to the City Council which are not placed on the official agenda she was advised that the Office of the City Clerk normally received this material the morning following the meeting and it can be reviewed there. Mrs. Hofer asked the City Council to direct a resolution to the Senatorial representatives in Washington asking them not to ratify the Panama Canal Treaty and suggested consideration be given to a Sister City from Panama. On MOTION by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Margett and carried unanimously a dance permit was granted, subject to all conditions in the staff report dated January 25, to the China Queen Restaurant, 850 S. Baldwin Avenue. Acceptance of Tract Nos. 26248 (Loma Lisa Lane) and 31656 (Woodacre Lane) was continued to February 21. On recommendation of the City Manager it was MOVED by Member Parry, seco~ded by Member Gilb and carried on roll call vote as follows that authorization be given for the replacement of two lease cars with 1978 models effective in May 1978, the lease of one additional pool car and the purchase of the two 1975 vehiclep currently under lease which lease will expire in May 1978. AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Council Members Gilb, Lauber, Margett, Parry, Saelid None None Council received a petition for the installation of street lights on Laurel Avenue - in an area where utility lines are at the rear property line and with only one low intensity incandescent street light in the middle of the block. The petition has 17 signatures representing 65% of the property owners, but it contains names of three parties which are not on the current assessment roll. The verified owners represent 54% of the ownership within the area. It was MOVED by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Parry and carried unanimously that a public hearing be scheduled for ~rch 7, 1978. In May of 1976 the City Council received a petiton requesting the removal of all publicly owned holly oak trees on Baldwin Avenue between Huntington Drive and Camino Real. During the interim the West Arcadia Business and Professional Association, as well as interested businessmen and property owners in the area, have been working to collect funds to pay the estimated cost of $7,200 for this project. The Association advises that it has been able to collect $3000 in contributions and is requesting assistance from the City and asking that the removal proceed with replacement with the ficus tree. 2-7-78 - 5 - NON CONFORMING USE - 225 S. First Avenue , p.t o ,1 ""0 t 'V N~ 22:9445 John McCarthy, businessman at 916 S. Baldwin Avenue, asked for this assistance and submitted that the present trees cover the store fronts which it is felt hinders their business. He asked the City Council to accept the $3000 and act favorably toward this project. During this consideration it was noted by the Director of Public Works that he was in receipt of a communication from a representative of the Arcadia Parking, Inc., that they do not want the trees in front of Hinshaws on the west side of Baldwin south of Duarte Road removed or disturbed. It was MOVED by Member Gilb, seconded by Member Lauber and carried on roll call vote as follows that Council finds the project will not have a significant effect on the environment and that the Negative Declaration be approved and filed; that the West Arcadia I Business and Professional Association deposit $3000 with the City to assist in paying the cost of this project and that the Director of Public Works be AUTHORIZED to place an order for the new trees and proceed with the tree removal as requested. AYES: NOES: AYES: Council Members Gilb, Lauber, Hargett, Parry, Saelid None None Use of a residential structure as an office - 225 S. First Avenue. The Planning Director stated in part that John Vise IIi of Viselli Insurance Company alleges he was given approval by the City to use the residential structure at said address for an office. However, the site contains a single family dwelling and was constructed in 1926. It has been vacant for about two years but was used theretofore for residential. The area is zoned C-l but the structure remains residential and no longer conforms with the Building Code for structures within a commercial zone. A number of non conforming uses occupy non conforming buildings and are allowed only because 1) the use was established before the Arcadia Municipal Code prohibited such uses in residential structures and 2) the use has been con- tinuously maintained in one business or another ever since. Mr. Vise IIi purchased the property and subsequently established his insurance business in the former house. This was brought to the attention of the Planning Department by a person who had wanted to purchase the property for commercial use but had been informed by the City that such use would not be permitted. An analysis of recent permits issued to Mr. Viselli and findings of subsequent inspections and meetings with City staff were made part of the staff report da ted January 21. Mr. Viselli refuted some of the contents of the report and said in part that it was obvious that he was going to have his business in the structure; that he felt the building inspectors were fully aware of his intent at the time they issued the permits and made inspections. He explored various contacts made with that department and said he was not made aware that the structure could not be used for com- I mercial purposes. He said he has spent a lot of money - about $6000 - in'making this business move and would not have purchased the property if he had known. He said he had obtained a loan from a savings and loan company and questioned this information obtained by the City as this was private and confidential. He submitted further in part that it was his intent to eventually construct an office building on the site and hoped to have his adjacent neighbors join in this effort. However, this was in the future as he had to first recoup his expenditures in making this move. In response to a ~uestion he said he could not consider this for at least three years. Discussion ensued on ways Mr. Viselli might be able to recoup some of his losses; also what Council could do to help. During this 2-7-78 _ 6 _ I I ORD INANCE NO. 1620 / ADOPTED ORDINANCE NO. 1621 ADOPTED / ORDINANCE NO. 1622 INTRODUCED 22:9446 ! consideratiqh it was noted that the property is zoned for resi- dential use'only; that other possible buyers had been advised that it could not be used for commercial purposes.. the alternatives would be 1) that the house be demolished and a new building con- structed pursuant to the Code for commercial purposes or 2) apply for a conditional use permit to a residence in a commercial zone which might or might not be approved. If it were granted it could then be converted for residential use. The City Council questioned how Mr. Viselli could sign the various permits without actually knowing what he was signing. These documents were all part of the report. Member Lauber suggested Mr. Viselli be allowed a period of about three years before he would have to construct a new building - that it could well be possible that he had been led to believe he could use the property for his business. However, other members of Council were more favorable to a period of six months to one year because for whatever reasons Mr. Viselli is in a situation where he is conducting a business in a non-conforming structure and is in violation of the City Code. It was then MOVED by Member Parry, seconded by Member Gilb and carried on roll call vote as follows that Mr. Viselli be granted a period of one year and a half to either bring the building up to Code or to cease his business operation at that location.
