AGENDA ITEM PHOTO SHOOTS (Wilderness Park) (CANCELLED) 07<10010 N~P CLOSED SESSION POLICE PATROLS (Foothill Jr. High Sch.) 0150 ~30 NJ'P Staff recommends setting Agenda Item 8a, Regular Meeting this date, for public hearing on March 3, 1992. This is an appeal to the Planning Commission's denial of modifications for a proposed 3-unit apartment building at 15 Genoa Street. The Recreation Director reported that a permit had been issued last year to Mr. Gary Hosteller, owner of West Coast Girls, sponsor of an event called Photo Days which has been held at Wilderness Park on the first Sunday of each month since August 4, 1991. Reports have recently been received from other park users that these photo shoots use live models displaying various degrees of nudity and improper poses. The Recreation Director explained when the original permit was issued, Mr. Hosteller had answered in the affirmative that his group is an Arcadia organization and 50% of the participants are Arcadia residents. The Recreation Director said that since he has become aware of this use of the park by this organization, he does not feel this is an appropriate use and recommends that Council cancel the permit. Further, he apologized for issuing the permit in the first place. In reply to Council's questions, Mr. Collins responded that a supervisory employee is on duty all day on Sundays. The employee was aware of the event, but did not himself observe any nudity, only that the group started out with 15 to 20 persons and is now drawing up to 100. Mr. Hosteller will be present at the 7:30 p. m. regular Council meeting to address the Council. The City Manager requested a Closed Session before the regular meeting this evening. Councilmember Young thanked the Police Department for patrolling Foothills Junior High School. Chief Johnson then 1 2/18/92 34:0043 reported that Foothills Junior High staff requested that the police patrol because of an on-going problem with bicycle riders and parents driving vehicles without observing rules of courtesy and so forth, especially at 3 p. m. when students are picked up from school. Foothills staff called an assembly at which Sgt. Sanderson spoke about these problems. After Sgt. Sanderson finished his talk and started to leave, some students threw papers at him. One student was observed doing this and Sgt. Sanderson took him to the principal's office. Chief Johnson reported that since enforcement has begun, the Police Department has received about 150 telephone calls from parents who are upset because they or their children have received citations. The Police Department has also had problems at Dana Junior High, as well as other Arcadia schools.
