N5P COMMUNITY CENTER USE 6 730 ~2.0 AI:.;;:> CLOSED SESSION ADJOURNMENT ATTEST: 33:0208 Councilmembers Harbicht and Fasching reported that, along with staff, they met with Sierra Madre's Mayor Buchan, and Councilman Gary Adams and City Administrator Jim McCrea to discuss the Orange Grove roadway improvement project. Counci1member Harbicht commented that it was apparent that the Sierra Madre Councilmembers were not familiar with the current plan for this roadway improvement, The meeting produced a plan to proceed with the project, first, by having each Council pass a resolution approving in concept the current plan for the roadway design and, secondly, based upon approval of the concept, the County Engineering Department could be asked to do the engineering for the project, The resolutions are expected to be before each Council this month. Councilmember Fasching commented that Arcadia residents in the I Orange Grove area were mostly in agreement with the concept for the roadway improvements as shown on the Public Works plans. The main objection of both Arcadia and Sierra Madre residents is the "leveling out of the entire street; increased speed, ,. which would become unsafe in their minds, and they wanted consideration of stop signs, speed bumps, or basically, to maintain the existing dips which would slow down the traffic". Further, there was a consensus of the group that met that if dips are maintained, but lessened in severity, it will tend to slow down the traffic on the newly improved street as the concept now stands. Later on stop signs could be considered if the dips prove not to be sufficient. Councilmember Harbicht noted also that the original plan would have eliminated 65 trees along Orange Grove. The current plan under discussion eliminates possibly ten trees. Staff reported that a draft policy statement is in preparation in connection with requests for use of the new Community Center building. This to produce a formal policy which will serve as a guide in discussions with persons desiring to use the facility. The City Manager requested a Closed Session before the regular meeting this date. At 7:16 p. m. Council entered the CLOSED SESSION, RECONVENED AND ADJOURNED sine die at 7:30 p, m, .~~ Charles E, Gilb, Mayor I J 2 8/6/91
