OPPOSING
Proposed development of parks on city-owned property at the southeast
corner of Second Avenue and Camino Real. It wa~ noted that the property
was acquired for this purpose from Gas Tax Funds. The Recreation
Commission had recommended that it be a mini-psFk similar to the one at
Baldwin Stocker Park on Lemon Avenue and that it not contain ball
diamonds or tennis courts. It was noted for the record that only three
Recreation Commissioners had been present at the meeting when this
matter was acted upon. Some discussion held on the possibility of
constructing tennis courts at the subject site ,as there is a lack of
facilities of this nature in the southern portion of the City.
The City Clerk read a letter which had been filed along with a petition
containing 88 signatures from residents in the'vicinity in favor of the
mini park at this location.
Mayor Hage declared the hearing open and Mrs. Leonard Henkey, 230 E.
Camino Resl, read a prepared statement in opposition to the park,
setting forth in part the revenue the City could derive from the
property if it were dedicated to residential development which was
the primary reason she and her family settled in the City... for its
residential atmosphere and character. She felt the public sentiment
should hsve been obtained in the beginning, that if 'the City proceeds with
the mini-park it will downgrade and reduce the'value of the adjacent
properties and submitted reasons therefor: increased traffic, parking

problems, noise levels which would interfere with the quiet nature of
the area and increased risk of vandalism and trespassing. She referred
to schools in the area which have recreation or park facilities and
asked Council to reconsider and permit the property to be developed
into residential use.
Leonard Henkey, 230 E. Camino Real, also spoke against the mini-park
and referred to pictures of the site which were carried in a local
neWspaper which he said would lead anyone to sign a petition. He said
he could obtain many signatures in opposition if given time to circulate
a petition.
Mi$S Tricie Sexton, 300 E. Wistaria Avenue/spoke as a teenager in favor
of the park and gave her reasons for the need; that there would be
space for exercise and activities such as volleyball, shuffle board and
perhaps tennis courts in addition to the play area for small children.
She presented a petition signed by 79 residents in and around the area
along with 32 signatures of children.
I
William D. Kaplan, 186 E. Camino Real, spoke in favor of the proposed
park as did Hyman W. Fink of 215 E. Norman Avenue. Donald E. Robinson,
1807 S. Third Avenue, stated in part that in his opinion neighborhood
parks do not downgrade an area and noted that offstreet parking is
proposed.
Mrs. Hudson Roysher, 1784 S. Santa Anita Avenue, referred to the Simon
Eisner report which specifically recommended more open space through
the use of parks and felt many children do not have space to run and
play; that the park would meet a need in the community.
No one else desiring to be heard the'hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by
Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Arth and carried unanimously.
During the Council deliberations it was submitted that there has been
an overwhelming desire on the part of those in the neighborhood for
the development of a park at this location; that the Recreation and
Planning Commissions recommend it and with reference to tennis courts
there is a shortage of places to play in the city. It was the consensus
of Council that the park be studied by a park designer and that it be
planned similar to Baldwin Stocker; that the designer advise if tennis
courts are possible with the available land. However, tennis courts
were not recommended at this time. A desire was expressed that the
activities not be planned so they only accommodate a certain type of
sport.
It was then MOVED by Councilman Scott, seconded by Councilman Helms
and carried unanimously that Council authorize the development of a
mini-park at the southeast corner of Camino Real and Second Avenue and
that staff make recommendations to Council for professional services
in the preparation of plans for such development and that the study
pursue the feasibility of incorporating tennis courts on the site.
I
Proposed development of a park on water department property at 67 W,
Orange Grove Avenue. Council reviewed a preliminary sketch from the
landscape architects who have been authorized to proceed with final
plans and specifications. It was noted that the plans may be altered
as a result of this meeting. Council had expressed a desire to hear
from the residents in the area.
Mayor Hage declared the hearing open and Mrs. D. Zimmerman, 1603
Perkins Drive, recited annoyances experienced now because of the noise
from the water facility and felt it would only enhance if a park were
developed there. She referred specifically to the traffic generated
from water department equipment.
Mrs. Marie Brown, 49 W. Orange Grove Avenue, opposed the park and sub-

mitted that the traffic problem is very bad now and would only get
worse with the activities from the proposed facility. She stated in
part that there is a great deal of vandalism now due in part to the
area being so secluded. She also felt the pumping system could be
damaged and wondered about sufficient supervision of the park which
she said would depreciate property 'values. She asked Counci 1 to
reconsider plans for what she considered would be an invasion of
privacy.
Leonard Henkey, 230 E. Camino Real, reiterated his opposition to mini-
parks in general and asked that more study be given to those under
current consideration than to the one developed at Second and
Huntington. He said in part that the land there could have been better
improved with a parking area or just landscaped,
Mrs. Jean Brown, 1616 Hyland Avenue, submitted pictorial views of the
top of the reservoir taken from her property and stated in part that
there has always been a problem of children walking on the walls behind
the homes and the danger of invasion of privacy which she felt would
occur with the mini-park.

Resident of 1605 Hyland Avenue inquired about theparking and was
informed that plans have not gone that far. In response to her question
about what recourse a resident has if the feasibility study indicates
that tennis courts are practical she was informed that all proceedings
are open for discussion: the employment of a park designer, consideration
of theplans and specifications and the award of contract.
Jerry Luboviski, 1632 Hyland Avenue, stated in part that he was in
favor of using the latent property for some public purpose and would
like to see it used as proposed, however, he would like the City to
provide proper and sufficient supervision so that it.would not become
an attractive nuisance for children and referred specifically to the
wall which separates his property from the subject site. He was opposed
to any lighting of the park.
Richard Des Jardins, Jr., 1845 N. Santa Anita Avenue, spoke on behalf
of residents who had previously gone on record as favoring the proposal
and could not attend this meeting; that they still would like to see
the City go ahead with the plans.
The City Clerk read a communication in favor of the park from Thomas
N. Fuelling, 100 W. Orange Grove Avenue, wherein it was stated in part
that he would like to see tennis and volleyball courts on the site in
addition to the children's play area -- so that residents of all ages
could enjoy the activities.
No one else desiring to be heard thehearing was CLOSED on MOTION by
Councilman Butterworth, seconded by Councilman Helms and carried unani-
mously.
Discussion ensued with the individual Councilmen presenting their
views. Councilman Butterworth stated in part that the remarks certainly
have merit and he could appreciate the expressions of concern, however,
there is a critical need for parks within the city and that a park on
this particular site would be less of a change because it is already
used for public purpose -- what with the water facility and the fire
station. He felt it would be unfortunate not to look into the matter
of tennis courts - that there are many ways they can be designed, and
in a way to be entirely satisfactory to the residents - the lights can
be shielded, etc. He did not think they should be entirely dismissed
at this time. He could not see where the property values would

depreciate with a park close by and noted that the acre and a half
would just lie dormant if it is not put to use and felt Council should
at least go forward with a feasibility study on the type of park for
this location taking into consideration the adjacent properties which
should be protected from any vandalism.
Councilman Scott submitted in part that he would like to vote for the
project but hesitated because so little support has been indicated,
however, he would not like to see the study held up.
.
Councilman Arth stated in part that the area is developed in the main
with very large lots and he realized that because of the secluded
area there are attendant evils such as vandalism. He felt most of
these could be eliminated with some permanent use. He opposed tennis I
courts as he felt this activity would be a true invasion of privacy.
He was in favor of a mini-park without tennis courts and noted that
proper policing would have to be provided.
Councilman Helms stated in part that he had visited the site
walked the areas in question and agreed that lighting should

It was then MOVED by Councilman Butterworth that it be the sense of
this Council that the area be generally approved for a mini-park and
that the administration be directed to ask the consultants their
opinion as to the feasibility of tennis courts and if they are practical
and can be constructed in such a way so as not to place an unreasonable
burden on the adjoining residents that staff provide Council with costs
of building tennis courts at the subject site on the reservoir roofs
as compared with those constructed at grade level, Councilman Helms
seconded the motion which was carried unanimously.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the tentative map of
Tract No. 28879, 445 - 461 W. Duarte Road, for a 46 unit condominium
subject to conditions. It was noted by the Planning Director that an
appeal has been filed and suggested the continuation of the matter
until the appeal has been heard and resolved. It was MOVED by
Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Arth and carried unanimously
that the matter be continued until a date certain to be established by
staff. Councilman Scott abstained from voting as he has an interest
in this tract.
Planning Commission recommendation for denial of tentative map of
Tract No. 29910 located at 310 W. Foothill Boulevard. It was proposed
by the developer to create an eight-lot subdivision. Although all of
the lots meet or exceed the minimum lot area requirements and four of
the proposed lots meet or exceed the minimum lot width and depth
requirements, the Planning Commission was of the opinion that the
remaining four lots contained such irregular characteristics as to
prohibit good, orderly development and recommended denial. The
Planning Director advised that the subdivider had asked that the
matter be referred back to the Commission as the map has been rede-
signed.
I
It was the consensus of Council that developers should be encouraged
to redesign their subdivisions in order to meet requirements and it
was MOVED by Councilman Butterworth, seconded by Councilman Helms and
carried unanimously that the Planning Commission recommendation be
sustained and that the tentative tract map be disapproved without
prejudice to the developer refiling within six months with the

Commission without any additional fee to the City.
Planning Commission recommendation for approval of tentative map of
Tract No. 29540 located at 343 W. Colorado Street with nine lots. The
Planning Director displayed projecturals and explained that the Com-
mission felt that despite minor circulation problems the plan was
about as good as any for this difficult property. It is located south
of and adjacent to the Foothill Freeway between the freeway and
Colorado Street. The vacant R-l site is triangular in shape and
contains about 2.4 acres.
Discussion held on the effects of vehicular noise from traffic on the
Freeway which could be reduced if a wall were constructed along the
property lines adjacent to the freeway and also with the use of
landscaping.
Mrs. Hudson Roysher, 1784 S. Santa Anita Avenue, was advised that a 6'
wall will be constructed as a buffer between the homes and the freeway.
The Director of Public Works advised that the State Division of
Highways also proposes to construct a 6' wall on the level of the
freeway along with the existing chain link fence. This will provide
a double buffer situation.
It was MOVED by Councilman Scott, seconded by Councilman Arth and
carried unanimously that tentative map of Tract No. 29540 be APPROVED
subject to conditions and that the wall be equal in height to the
existing chain link fence - this height to be satisfactory to the city
staff .

During the deliberation it was Councilman Butterworth's observation
that in his opinion the firemen doing this work should not receive
additional compensation for duties performed during the regular
working hours; that they are adequately paid and could perform these
duties when not engaged in their regular function. He referred to
the cities not paying anything extra for the subject work and felt
that the ambulance work is not too far out of line with a fireman's
regular duties.
The majority of the Council felt the work warrants a differential in
pay and it was MOVED by Councilman Arth, seconded by Councilman Helms
and carried on roll call vote as follows that the recommendation be
APPROVED and that the existing rescue specialists pay be increased
from $40 to $60 per month and the second ambulance positions be paid
$30 per month. The additional cost to the City per year would be
$1800. The City Attorney will prepare the necessary resolution to
effect this and the City Manager will provide by the next regular
meeting a cost estimate as to the total and actual cost to the City -
including contributions for retirement, etc.
