MINUTES CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA and the ARCADIA REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ADJOURNED REGULAR MEETING APRIL 21, 1992 The City Council and the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency met in an adjourned regular meeting on Tuesday, April 21, 1992, at 7:00 p. m., in the Conference Room of the Arcadia City Hall Council Chambers. PRESENT: Councilmembers Ciraulo I Fasching, Harbicht, Young and Gilb None ABSEN1': It was MOVED by Mayor Pro tern Harbicht, seconded by Councilmember Fasching and CARRIED, that the Minutes of the March 17, 1992 Regular Meeting be corrected to~emove the name of Barbara Kuhn from the list of candidates to be interviewed for the vacancy on the Planning Commission. Staff supplied the two new Councilmen, Lojeski and Margett, wi th information related to earthquake mi tigation requirements in certain structures, and a list of those commercial buildings and residences in the City which have not as yet complied, Councilman Lojeski noted two buildings in town that still retain earthquake damages, in particular, the engineering building on Santa Clara and the Wheeler Street Post Office. Mayor Gilb commented that the postal service is seeking a location to move into, and will then construct a new building at the Wheeler Street site. The postmaster indicated the funds are available to build a new post office, however, they have not yet found a temporary location from which to operate. The construction could take as long as two years to complete. Staff suggested Items Sa. and Sb. be set for public hearing on May S, 1992. No. Sb., the consideration of MM 92-001, a modification for walls/fences at the east and west side of property lines for the front yard landscaping project at 284 Arbolada Drive (Dr. and Mrs. William Dale), was briefly discussed. The history of projects at this location was related. The current project, which is in noncompliance with Codes as to the height of the walls/fences, was denied by Council upon the owner' s appeal to the decision of the Planning Commission to uphold the Santa Ani.ta Oaks Homeowner's Association, Architectural Review Board. Dr. and Mrs. Dale have since returned to the ARB and sai.d they would comply and build a solid wall, however, the ARB thought the wall would look strange abutting the neighbor's wall which is of different material and a different height and decided to leave the wall/fence as it is. Mayor Pro tern Harbicht noted that the ARB decided to approve the design but the project does require a variance. Dr. Towner, Superintendent of the Arcadia School District, has requested that the School District be allowed to make a 10 minute presentation at the May S, 1992, 6:00 p. m., meeting 1 4/21/92 34:0097 on their $27.6 million bond issue election proposed for September 15. Council concurred that a presentation could be made at the 6:00 p.m. meeting. The concept of an auditorium similar to the Performing Arts Center in Duarte would be the primary focus of the 6:00 p.m. meeting with the School Board. Before the May 5th date, the Council will tour the Duarte Center. This, at a date as yet to be determined. CLOSED SESSION Staff requested a Closed Session at the conclusion of the Pre- meeting this date. PAVING STANDARDS Staff explained, in regard to Item 6a. on the regular agenda, the text amendment places the responsibility on the architect or engineer to design appropriate pavement for their projects. The Text Amendment will require that paving materials be shown on the plans as prepared by a licensed architect, civil engineer, or structural engineer.
