Julie McCov, 1225 Rancho Road, stated, in part, that she is present to discuss the parking problems of residents who live near the race track on Santa Rosa Road. The street parking is restricted to one hour, making it very inconvenient for the residents. She inquired whether those residents could secure some sort of resident parking sticker which would enable them to park for a longer period of time. This would not affect any other parking regulations, including the over night parking restrictions. She presented a petition signed by eighteen of the Santa Rosa Road residents. Mayor Gilb noted that the parking restrictions had been imposed at the request of those residents some time ago when there was a night club at the Westerner on Colorado Place. At the request of the residents, the curb was painted red. However, Mayor Gilb stated that the Chief of Police had observed this area recently, and since the race track parking is not so heavy at this time, some of the parking signs have been covered so there will be no limits on the parking.

Certain technical legal questions about the types of possible bond issues, the role and risk to the City (if any) of the respective bond issues, tax-exemption matters, and other tax related concerns have arisen which require specialized legal review by a bond counsel and tax firm. The bond counsel responses to the Request for Proposal have been reviewed by the City Attorney and Finance Director. Based upon their comments, review of the proposals, reference checks and cost, staff recommends that the City Council select the firm of Brown & Wood. There will be no costs to the City unless and until there is a bond issue. The City must agree to use Brown & Wood as bond counsel on such an issue if in fact the City issues bonds. If it does not, there will be no cost for the service. Estimated costs for the two types of bond issues (only one of which would probably be used) are Certificate of Participation $30,000, Community Facilities District (Mello Roos) $40,000 plus out of pocket expenses (estimated $3,000). This cost could be paid out of the bond sale proceeds at the time of the bond sale. By contracting for these legal services,' the Council is not committing at this time to any course of action or financial assistance to the Mall. This contract will merely assist staff in analyzing the Mall's reques t . Councilmember Fasching remarked that he is impressed with the staff report and the direction the City is taking in this matter, and thinks they are right on line. It was MOVED by Councilmember Fasching, seconded by Councilmember Ciraulo and CARRIED on roll call vote as follows that City Council SELECT the firm of Brown & Wood to analyze certain legal and tax questions related to possible financial assistance to the Santa Anita Fashion Park Mall and to serve as bond counsel if the City elects in the future to issue' bonds, subject to execution by Brown & Wood of an Agreement approved by the City Attorney.

He is pleased to represent Arcadia in the United States Congress. When the California Supreme Court certifies the reapportionment plan next week, he will represent the eastern part of the San Gabriel Valley, starting in East Pasadena and extending to his home area of Claremont, right through the San Gabriel Valley, including Arcadia, Monrovia, Temple City, Sierra Madre and on to the communities he has previously represented of Duarte, Bradbury. Azusa, Glendora, La Verne, San Dimas,. Claremont, North Pomona, Covina, West Covina and Walnut. He is pleased with the way his district has been worked out. He carries regards from Congressman Carlos Moorhead, who has represented Arcadia over the past decade. He continued that his priorities include bringing a job creation package with tax incentives. Next week President Bush will be delivering the State of the Union address. He will include proposals for economic growth. Congressman Dreier hopes Congress will address a crime bill. Also of concern to communities is the third party liability legislation with regard to toxic wastes, which he is trying to introduce. Congressman Dreier feels that the most responsive level of government is the local level, and he has a great respect for the Councilmembers. It is rewarding and a challenge to try to meet the needs of the people. Congressman Dreier then introduced members of his staff present in the audience Mayor Gilb called Congressman Dreier's attention to some of the local problems, 1. e., transportation and the construc t i on of the Blue Line; acquiring the right of way from Santa Fe Railroad; what the government will do about health care; and Social Security and the "notch kids".

In reply to a question from Mayor Gilb, Congressman Dreier said money withdrawn at retirement from IRA accounts could go to health care with a tax credit.

AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Councilmembers Ciraulo, Fasching, Young and Gilb None Mayor Pro tern Harbicht MATTERS FROM STAFF None MATTERS FROM ELECTED OFFICIALS Stated that the nomination period for two City Council seats and one City Clerk position opened January 16, 1992. To date, three people have taken out papers for the Council seats, and one for the City Clerk. With regard to the transportation issue and the Blue Line, cost overruns, driver or driverless cars, the local Pasadena - Arcadia line, and the controversy over the Santa Fe right of way, it will probably be 12 - 14 years before the Blue Line will be operational. In the meantime, and in the interest of transporting people and easing the congestion on the streets, he wonders why a commuter train could not be developed to run through Arcadia and Pasadena and then to downtown Los Angeles using the existing Santa Fe right of way. Stations could be built along that route. This could be accomplished probably in eighteen months or so. He has brought this idea up at I 1/21/92 8 1 1 YOUNG (San Gabriel Valley Commuter System) FASCHING (San Gabriel Valley Commuter System) GnB (League of Calif .Cities - AQMD Representative) 11. ADJOURNMENT (Feb.4,1992 - 7:00 p.m.) ATTEST: Ju Alford, 34:0034 transportation meetings, but everyone seems to be interested only in the Blue Line. Noted that idea had been talked about previously. She has no idea why it was discarded. It seems logical to her, also. That had been the original plan; but somewhere it got sidetracked. This is actually what is being done along the Pomona Freeway corridor, using the Union Pacific tracks. Pasadena would have to agree to such a project. A commuter line would save a great deal of money in a period of time when there is not much available. Stated that at the last League of California Cities meeting a representative was to be selected from the AQMD Board because the term of Henry Morgan had expired. Since no candidate received a majority vote, this will be taken up again at the upcoming meeting. At 8:22 p. m., the meeting ADJOURNED to 7:00 p. m., Tuesday, February 4, 1992, in the Conference Room of the Council Chambers to conduct the business of the Council and Agency and any CLOSED SESSION necessary to discuss personnel, litigation and evaluation of properties. ei~~ J 1/21/92 9
