AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION
Fred Jahnke, Hacienda Drive, urged the City Council to assure the citizens that no more
than $16,000,000 would be spent for the new police facility. If less that $16M is spent on
the project, Mr. Jahnke encouraged the Council to make a public statement that the
savings would reduce the bond. He also suggested that Council rethink the concept of a
parking structure at the police station". these type of structures are very expensive. Mr.
Jahnke opined that Council not include a parking structure in the project, but incorporate
a walled area to park police vehicles.
STUDY SESSION
In consideration of cable television grant funds, the City Council discussed the future of
video production, programming needs of the community and distribution of a one-time
$393,000 capital grant received from TCI in 199411995, as part of the cable television
franchise renewal process.
Currently approximately $200,000 would be required to upgrade the Council Chamber
audio and video equipment. After the bidding and purChasing process for the upgrade is
completed, the excess funds could be shared with the school district to assist with the
district production efforts. John Risk, Communications Support Group was in attendance
for a presentation and discussion conceming the cable television grant funds. Mr. Risk
stated, in part, that the Communications Support Group conducted a "Community Needs
Assessment and Subscriber Survey' in order to identify subscriber opinions and
interests. The results indicated the community was interested in interactive technology
as well as educational and informational programming. Language in the new franchise
incorporates many of the suggestions from the survey, including two.way interactive
Internet access and a dedicated channel for the Arcadia Unified School District.
Earl Davis, Arcadia Unified School District, highlighted the emphasis of Educational
Access on Channel 56. Mr. Davis stated, in part, that the School District is pleased with
the City's proposal to provide the remainder of the capital grant funds to assist the
District with production efforts, and also the donation of used City equipment to aid in the
video training programs at Arcadia High School.

NEWPOUCE On May 4, 1999 the City Council approved a Professional Services Agreement with the
FAClUTY architectural firm of WMM Associates and appropriated $21,000 to conduct a Needs
NEEDS Assessment for a new Police facility. The study has determined that the space needs for
ASSESSMENT the Department are approximately 42,000 square feet, plus an additional 15,900 for a
($8.0MiDionBord) new Firing Range. armory, communications and mechanics shops, a vehicle impound
lfIPPROVED) area, and SWAT vehicle parking area. The construction budget for these facilities is
approximately $10,678,000. Including architectural and engineering fees, inspection
costs, furnishings and equipment, contingency and a cost escalation factor, the total
budget is about $15,500,000.
The site for the proposed new facility is the former Armory property, which was I
purchased from the State of California in 1988 with a five-year leaseback arrangement to
the State. The site is 2.12 acres, or 92,347 square feet. The study shows that the new
building(s) will fit onto the site with a two-story structure and surface parking for
approximately sixty (60) vehicles. Police employee parking requires about fifty (50)
spaces which can be accommodated by expanding the existing lot between the current
Police Station and City Hall. Under this configuration, a parking structure would not be
required.
Stephen Wiley, WMM Associates and Jeff Templeton, Consultant. were present at the
meeting this date. Mr. Wiley presented a brief summary of the process and
methodology relative to the Needs Assessment of the Police Department and budget for
the project.
In reference to previous suggestions from the audience, Mayor Pro tern Harbicht stated,
in part: if the project costs under $16 million the remainder will be a payment toward the
bond. Mr. Harbicht also noted that the goal is to build a police station that this
community needs; if in the bidding process the total amount is higher than the estimated
amount then it will be a Council decision to either find the money somewhere or cut back
on the project.
Mayor Chandler commented, if the cost for building a new police facility is over the $16
million estimated amount, these funds could be released from the General Fund or
Capital Improvement Fund and not from an additional tax or another bond issue.
Councilmember Roncelli felt the City Council should promise' residents a maximum
expenditure of $16 million for building a new police facility and keep that promise. I

(yearly Report)
Councilmember Roncelli congratulated the City on the "end of the year report - July 1,
1998 to June 30, 1999'. He is pleased with less expenditures and more revenues than
what was projected in the yearly budge\.

Ms. Marshall wamed residents with small pets to be aware of coyotes. Do not let the
pets out after dark.
Ms. Marshall shared a "gem of the day", by Kingsley: "there are two freedoms, the
false, where a man is free to do what he likes, and the true, where a man is free to do
what he ought.
Councilmember Kovacic referred to a letter, dated August 27, 1999, from Los Angeles
Conservancy, conceming the construction of two (2) elevator towers at Santa Anita Race
Track. The Conservancy requested the City Council's action on two items: 1) to rescind
the building permit for the towers; 2) to formalize what was informally stated at the
audience participation portion of the August 17, 1999 meeting; that the City Council
would not approve any other proposals for development at the race track without some
kind of general plan or a master plan. The Conservancy came up with five (5)
suggestions of how the Council should handle phase 2. Councilmember Kovacic
requested that staff analyze the proposals and submit their recommendations and
information to Council at a later date. The Council concurred.
Mr. Kovacic proposed a study session for Council discussion and consideration of R-O
and R-1 zoning regulations, that would permit Homeowner Associations to go beyond
City regulations as far as building restrictions in the R-1 and R-O zones, in particular, the
f1oor-area-ratio (FAR) issue. The Council concurred..
In response to Mr. Kovacic's comments regarding an editorial in the newspaper, staff
stated, in part, that the City has a tree preservation ordinance which only applies to oak
trees. With regard to City trees, the Arcadia Municipal Code prohibits any kind of
maintenance activity on public trees by residents.
Mr. Kovacic would like to see a more comprehensive tree ordinance which would
protect other trees as well as oak trees and encourages, if not requires, trees to be
planted in new developments.
Mayor Pro tem Harbicht suggested legal action to be taken against a department store
on Baldwin Avenue, for violating the Arcadia Municipal Code sign regulations by
displaying "going out of business. signs all over town. The City Attomey will immediately
address this matter.
Mr. Harbicht congratulated Mr. Donald Penman, for his appointment as City Manager
Pro tem.

CITY MANAGER
Mr. Jimmy Randall, from U.S. Census Bureau, presented an update on Census 200D and
explained in detail the importance of United States Census 2000 and the counting
process. The United States Constitution mandates a census every 10 years to
determine how many seats each state will have in the U.S. House of Representatives.
Community leaders use census numbers for everything from planning schools and
building roads to providing recreational opportunities and managing health-care services.
The Census 2000 goal is to count everyone in America. In 1990 the census missed
about four million (4,000,000) people, 20% children, 50% eighteen (18) years of age and
40% under ten (10) years of age. in the 1990 census, City of Arcadia count,
approximately 1900 people were missed, therefore, between 1990 and 2000 the City of
Arcadia lost approximately two million dollars ($2,000,000) because of the undercount.
The City of Los Angeles lost over eight-hundred million dollars. To illuminate the
undercount, Census 2000 has asked the Cities, Counties and the States to work with
them by forming a Complete Count Committee of community leaders.
Beginning mid-March 20DO, Census questionnaires will be delivered to each household;

In response to Council's question Mr. Randall stated, in part, that by law, the Census
Bureau cannot share individual records with any other govemment agency and the
Census workers must be swom to secrecy before they see the numbers. If someone
gives out any information they see on a form, they would face a $5,000 fine and a five-
