City Manager Molendyk noted that progress in clearing the
algae had been seen for a while, however the Lake was now
green again. He requested an update from the contractor
treating the Lake.
Bob Allard, representing Brach & Allard, advised that they
have seen a complete lake turnover with the bottom rising to
the top. He explained the impact of temperatures and
accumulated materials on the bottom of the Lake on the algae
being seen. He further explained that although the color of
the Lake is unpleasant, progress is being seen. He detailed
the treatment done with approximately 75,000 pounds of micro-

organisms to date. He noted the remaining problem areas and
the further treatment which will occur.
City Manager Molendyk noted previous comments that the Lake
should be cleared up in 90 days and questioned the reason for
the remaining problems. Mr. Allard explained that the trees
which are under water at the west end of the lake have some
impact on the problem. He further explained that the product
has been altered since the process began and appears to be
clearing the problem.
Mayor Washburn questioned the "shiny" layer along the
shoreline. Mr. Allard indicated that layer was planktonic
algae and filamentous algae which becomes shiny as it dies
out. Mayor Washburn inquired how long this would last and the
impact on the color of the water. Mr. Allard indicated that
the coloring of the lake will continue for a while, and the
shiny layer will dissipate in a week to a week and a half. He
advised that a planktonic bloom will be seen as each major
layer in the Lake bottom soil is attacked.
Councilwoman Cherveny inquired what the difference between the
natural pattern and the use of the product is, in that similar
clearing of the Lake is seen annually without the product.
Mr. Allard indicated that under normal circumstances this
problem would have included a major fish kill, which has not
been the case this year. He explained that this change was
due to the increased levels of dissolved oxygen, up to a
rating of approximately 12%, which is currently present in the
Lake. Councilwoman Cherveny questioned the oxygen levels at
which fish kills occur. Mr. Allard indicated that fish die
offs generally occur when there is around 2%, with 4 to 5%
being adequate for fish survival.
Mr. Allard commented that some blue is appearing along the
edge of the Lake which is caused by the continued impact of
copper sulfate on the Lake. City Manager Molendyk requested
clarification that this copper sulfate was a build -up rather
than new application. Mr. Allard concurred that this was a
result of previous public and private attempts to resolve the
problem. He also noted that a major assistance to clearing
the Lake would be an outflow. He suggested the potential for
use of aeration, however noted that it is cost prohibitive.
City Manager Molendyk suggested that the Council might want a
workshop on the Lake for an update in the next few weeks.
Mayor Washburn expressed hope for an improved situation next
year with this headstart on the problem.
R.B. Jones- Grubbs, representing the manufacturer of the
product used on the Lake, noted that this effort has shown how
well the residues from a long period of time are being
mitigated. He stressed the work of this product to draw the
impurities out of the soil on the bottom of the Lake. He
suggested that this treatment continue throughout the winter
to assure a clearer lake next year.
Mayor Washburn indicated that Council would schedule a
workshop.

Mayor Washburn noted that the Williams lawsuit had been heard
by the Court this date and requested an update from City
Attorney Harper.
City Attorney Harper confirmed that this matter had gone
before the Judge as an effort to block the Walmart project.

and denied the Writ of Mandate requested. He further advised
that the Court found that the meetings where action was taken

both Edmundson and NBC had done work for the City. He further
advised that staff does go out and solicit bids. He noted
that during the storms earlier this year extensive amount of
work was done and much of the work was contracted on the basis
of who could respond with the necessary equipment on short
notice. He stressed that many times local contractors are not
able to meet the necessary time frames. He suggested that
interested local contractors contact the Public Services
Director and notify him of there interest in providing
services.
Mayor Washburn noted that the intent of the public bidding
process is to offer an equal opportunity to bid.
Councilman Winkler commented that he keeps hearing about use
of local people and indicated that it sounds like a type of
"cronyism ". He stressed the purpose of the public bidding
process.

Councilwoman Cherveny indicated that she had driven through
this area and was not sure it had truly been bladed off. She
suggested that further consideration be given to this project
because the only options for the children are to walk in the
street or in the mud when it rains. She further suggested
that this was a safety issue and questioned the ability to
gain reimbursement from the developer. City Attorney Harper
indicated that reimbursement could not be obtained.
Mayor Washburn indicated he too had visited this area, and
suggested placement of sand or other material in the area to
smooth out the rough spots.

TO REJECT ALL BIDS FOR THE SUMMERHILL DRIVE WALKWAY FROM DEL
PIZZOLI TO PONTE RUSSO.
Councilwoman Cherveny questioned the cost difference for use
of a 4 wheel drive vehicle vs. a 2 wheel drive vehicle. She
further questioned the necessity of a 4 wheel drive vehicle
for the work location. City Manager Molendyk indicated that
most vehicles used by the archaeologists are 4 wheel drive,
and those are based on a cost of $.35 per mile.

molendyk indicated that difference, nce, however that was the way the project was bid.
Mayor Washburn noted Native letter received from Larry
Heritage Executive Secretary, commission
relating to the handling of bones and read the following
excerpt from that letter:
"I was confused as to what the involvement of Penny Baker
and Robert Vermillion had with the site initially and
what prompted them to invite archaeologists to the site.
Were they representatives of the property owner? It also
is not clear who removed the bones from the site. Mr.
Bruce Love, mentioned as one of the archaeologist, is
well aware of the Codes and the proper procedures to
follow involving the discovery of remains and the
documentation and recording of finds. Records in this
office do not indicate that Paul Price is an
archaeologist.
Regarding your questions about trespassing and removal of
remains (if they are human) I would suggested that you
immediately discuss these questions with your District
Attorney."
Mayor Washburn explained that this agreement was for areas not
covered by the Corps. of Engineers work underway.
City Attorney Harper advised that action is being pursued as
suggested in the letter read by Mayor Washburn.

93 -59.
City Planner Leslie detailed the site which a proposal for a
135 lot subdivision of single - family homes and an annexation
to the City. He noted that there is additional area
surrounding the project to the west and north that is also
proposed to be prezoned, but not actually annexed at this
time. Mr. Leslie presented an exhibit which outlined the
annexation and surrounding areas. He noted the conditions
proposed and the modification of alignment on Grand Avenue.
Mayor Washburn then asked for the applicant to speak.
Steve Parry, Hamilton Consulting, 3397 Silva Road, STE 320,
Dana Point, explained that Hamilton Consulting is representing
the project as the Project Manager for Western Desert
Properties. He stated that they are in general agreement with
the proposed conditions except for one. Mr. Parry explained
that the issue of realignment of access from Grand Avenue is
acceptable as newly proposed or originally proposed. He
requested modification of Condition No. 74 to read: If
AGENDA ITEMri;O.. � 0
PAC'E _ r Q
PAGE SIX - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 30, 1993
building permits are not issued within 90 days of approval of
this tentative map, the site shall be subject to dust control
methods as approved by the Citp Engineer. He stated that this
would be consistent with other projects approved by Council
and meets the requirements of the Planning Commission. He
stated that he and his staff would be available for further
questions.
Mayor Washburn opened the public hearing at 7:50 p.m. and
asked those persons requesting to speak to come forward as
called. The following persons spoke:
David Buchanan, 30881 Plumas Street, spoke in opposition to
the project and presented an exhibit showing by color
designation, how many people are opposed to the project from
the surrounding areas. He noted that the original development
approved by the County was for 98 homes, which would have been
consistent with the surrounding area. He explained that this
project, along with Laguna Heights project will have an
adverse effect on Public Safety and services provided to the
area.
Jeanie Archer, 15271 Alvarado Street, spoke in opposition to
the project and explained that she felt that she and her
neighbors were under attack because she feels the developer
was trying to change their lifestyle. She pointed out that
livestock produces noise seven days a week, flies can not be
stopped, and the safety of children who are not used to
livestock and move into the new tract and the danger to the
livestock from new residents. Mrs. Archer explained that she
felt that the 98 homes would be more acceptable and in
conformance with the surrounding area and that higher density
for profit would just create more problems.
Donna Bejarano, 32831 Magdaleno Court, spoke in opposition to
the project and expressed concern regarding drainage and
potential flood waters. She stated that there are several
problems which exist and explained the proposed drainage which
takes a ninety degree turn into a dirt channel and noted the
possibility of a silting problem along with the flooding.
Richard Bejarano, 32831 Magdaleno Court, spoke in opposition
to the project and explained that the 98 lots proposed to the
County was a compromise at that time. He further explained
that he understands that the proposal for 135 homes is done
due to economics, but he stated that if the economics do
improve it will still consist of 135 homes instead of 98
homes.
Ace Vallejos, 15231 Cobre Street, spoke in opposition to the
project and explained that he felt his area was being forced
into an annexation by the City and encouraged residents
opposed to annexation to notify LAFCO of their concerns. He
asked why the City was trying to prevent the majority of
homeowners from voting on the annexation. Mr. Vallejos read
a letter questioning the potential change in the quality of
life for existing residents, as well as inferior police
services should this annexation be approved.
Allan Knight, 30570 Brookstone, spoke in opposition to the
project and read portions of the LAFCO rules and regulations
AGENDA ITEM NO.
P G *__._L ._ 0
PAGE SEVEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 28, 1993
regarding annexation, and questioned the compliance of the
developer to these rules and regulations. Mr. Knight stated
that the developer increased the density from 98 to 135 homes
due to the excess cost for drainage improvements. He
explained that it is only an increase of $5,000 per residence
and he felt that the drainage issue was just an excuse to
increase the number of lots. He noted that it was requested
of the developer to design an equestrian community and make it
compatible to the surrounding area and developer declined to
do so.
Ed Schultz, 15003 Eureka Street, spoke in opposition to the
project and stated that he does not want to be a part of the
City and feels that there would be no benefit to himself or
his neighborhood. He indicated that the project will block
his view and reduce the quality of public safety services.
Mayor Washburn then asked if any other persons would like to
speak in regard to the project. Hearing none the Mayor called
upon Mr. Parry, Project Manager, to respond to some of the
concerns presented to Council.
Mr. Parry stated that he would like to address the issues
regarding lot size, equestrian use, flood control and traffic.
Mr. Parry explained an exhibit of the perimeter of the
property and explained one of the concerns of the surrounding
property owners was the compatibility of use and lot size. He
stated that they had modified the tract map to make lots which
are adjacent to the other developments larger, to conform and
make a buffer and he felt that this would answer the concern
by making them compatible to adjacent lots. Mr. Parry then
explained equestrian use adjacent to the project and noted
that there is no equestrian use in the project. He clarified
that the prezoning does accept equestrian use and he stated
that the project is compatible with the Regional Trail system.
Fred Crowe, Keith Companies, Project Engineer, explained that
the trail next to the sidewalk is a multi -use trail and is
connected to the Regional Trail system and meets all
requirements. Mr. Crowe then gave an overview of the Trail
system.
Mayor Washburn asked what standard was required of 888
Development. City Planner Leslie explained that the trail is
as narrow as 10 feet and gets wider in some areas.
Steve Parry explained the cost of the project and noted that
it does not increase taxes. He then addressed flood control
and explained that the project has been conditioned to address
substantial off -site drainage. Mr. Crowe explained the
improvements which the project will install and explained that
the cost of the drainage will be absorbed by the developer for
the section from Machado to the Lake. Mr. Crowe explained
that although it is set up for reimbursement, it would happen
at the time of future development; and the area from Machado
to the Lake looks as though it will be quite some time before
there is building to reimburse the developer, therefore the
developer will bear the entire cost of the drainage
improvements.
Councilwoman Cherveny asked how long the earthen channel is.

Mr. Crowe stated that it is approximately Soo feet and was
built by Woodhaven prior to the new regulations. He stated
that there have always been problems with the channel, and
eventually Riverside County Flood Control will have to address
them. Mr. Parry clarified that this project will not only
handle the flows of the project itself, but it will be
accepting water from off -site. He further clarified that this
will improve the flooding situation in the surrounding areas
and not increase the problems.
Steve Parry then addressed the traffic concerns and explained
that there were two streets in the adjoining tract that were
not cul -de -sacs, and were always intended to connect to the
next area of development. He advised that these streets have
been developed to accept the amount of traffic proposed. He
explained that if Council prefers, they will use the alternate
entry from Grand Avenue.
Councilman Dominguez asked Mr. Parry about creating an island
with the annexation. Mr. Parry presented an exhibit of the
proposed annexation and stated that he did not see an island
problem.
Allan Knight, 30570 Brookstone, clarified that on one end of
the project near Machado, there is a small strip of land
between two City limit lines.
Ace Vallejos, 15231 Cobre Street, stated that if this project
is annexed his back fence is the City limits and expressed
concern that all of the lots in his tract are three- quarters
of an acre to one acre lots and that is not compatible to what
is proposed.
Terry Spear, 2651 Payne Street, stated that on Eureka Street
there are a large number of children who play in the street
and traffic is a danger to those children.
Mayor Washburn asked if anyone else would like to speak in
regard to the project. Hearing no one the public hearing was
closed at 8:35 p.m.
Mayor Washburn asked if the lots adjacent to the adjoining
tract would meet the buffer requirements. Mr. Parry stated
that they will.
Mayor Washburn then questioned lots 6 through 28 that come up
to the rear of other ownership rights and the toe of the slope
raises up to a pad level impacting visual access, and he
requested confirmation that open fencing would be used so that
the view was not obstructed. He then questioned the
maintenance of the upper slope and whether there would be CC
& R's to support maintenance. Mr. Parry explained the
concerns of the maintenance of slopes have been discussed and
there is an agreement to set up a maintenance agreement as
detailed in Condition No. S.
Councilman Dominguez questioned the equestrian trails. Mr.
Crowe explained that the way they are conditioned, it is to be
used as a multi - purpose trail and fits the location that is
requested by the County for the Equestrian Trail System.
Councilman Winkler asked if the flood control plans within
AGENDA ITEM NO. ` �T
PAGE V OF:

this project were provided for in the County approval.
Councilman Winkler asked about the fencing used to prevent the
blocking of views. Mr. Crowe explained that the Planning
Commission and the adjacent property owners had concerns
regarding the blockage of view and the way it is conditioned
so the fencing will come back to Design Review for approval.
He further explained that the height and amount of privacy are
issues which will be taken into account at the time of Design
Review.

Section 31602 which provides that the determination that a dog
is vicious and subject to impoundment. He further explained
that it allows for a petition to the Municipal Court or to the
City with jurisdiction, subject to appeal to the Municipal
Court. He also explained that a dog, owned by Mr. Luttrull,
has had a record of biting three people. He noted that it is
the kennel recommendation iddoog obefo before ,is� returned. Luttrull date, Mr.
Luttrull has not met the conditions of L.E.A.F. and the
Council
next two weeks, then hen LEA Fi woulddrecommend that the
in the the
dog be destroyed.
City Attorney Harper explained that first the Council must
make the determination, based upon the evidence, that the dog
is vicious. After that determination is made then under the
statute Council determines what types of conditions will be
put on maintaining the dog.
Jean vashall, Animal Control Officer for L.E.A.F., stated that
she has worked on this case and explained that Bruno is a male
Shar Pei Mix that is constantly at large in the neighborhood.
She commented that upon inspection of the property he cannot
be confined by the fencing provided and has bitten three
children in the last four months. She indicated that in her
opinion the dog will bite again, if given the opportunity.
She explained the three dog bite incidents and what action
L.E.A.F. had taken. She recommended that the dog be confined
in a 10 X 10 foot kennel with a solid roof and concrete floor
to prevent escape; that Bruno be allowed inside the home while
under the direct supervision of a responsible adult with the
screen door locked at all times, and shall be made of a
material capable of preventing Bruno from jumping against it
and escaping; that Bruno be placed in the kennel when visitors
are present; and if Bruno is taken off the property, he should
be on a leash no longer than 61, with a responsible adult
capable of controlling the dog.
Cecil Luttrull, 224 Broadway, the dog owner, explained that he
felt that the dog had cause for biting in one case, since the
dog had been teased by the boy and the boy did jump the fence.
He further explained that the dog is a blond Shar Pei, is not
part pit bull and is a loving dog, but in the evening several
dogs do get loose and his is not the only one in the
neighborhood. He detailed the circumstances of the other two
dog bites. He stated that when his animal was retained at the
animal shelter he experienced a large loss in weight and
developed a kennel cough, as well as contracting fleas and
ticks. He further stated that since this quarantine he has
again contracted kennel cough and questioned who would pay the
vet bill.
Councilwoman Cherveny stated that Mr. Luttrull has not stated
what he will do to contain the dog, nor assured Council that
the dog will not bite again.
Cecil Luttrull stated that he will build a kennel and if there
are children in the immediate area he will be confined in the
house or in the kennel.
Councilman Winkler stated that Mr. Luttrull stated that he

would do what he has to do and he stated that he would take
that to mean that Mr. Luttrull would comply with all the
conditions of L.E.A.F. He asked Mr. Luttrull if he was
willing to do that. Mr. Luttrull stated that he would and
stated that his dog is a good dog.

Mayor Washburn asked the City Attorney if the dog is released
to the owner and escapes or is not in compliance with the
conditions, will the dog be automatically euthanized.
Councilwoman Cherveny stated that this has already been heard,
and the dog has been determined vicious and if the dog should
bite again he will be automatically euthanized.
Mr. Luttrull stated that on only one occasion the dog attacked
and he felt that the dog had been provoked. He stated that it
was not fair to deem the dog vicious.
Councilman Winkler asked what the procedure would be if the
owner complies with the conditions and the dog escapes and
bites again.
City Attorney Harper stated that it is a Council
determination, but the three choices are as follows:
1. That if the dog escapes, he will just be returned to his
kennel.
2. That if he is at large then he will be taken into custody
and be subject to euthanasia with no recourse to Council.
3. Recourse to Council for final determination.

Mayor Washburn explained that the action taken by Council is
not trying to be the judge and jury, but with the evidence
presented by L.E.A.F. it indicated that Council must take
action for the protection of the owner as well as the public.
Councilman Winkler stated that this item should not be brought
back to the table, but that any information in opposition or
in favor of Council action should be taken to L.E.A.F.
City Manager Molendyk explained that Lewis Homes is the first
to appeal the recently adopted ordinance prohibiting the use
of wood fencing. City Planner Leslie presented photographs of
existing wood fencing in the community.
Mayor Washburn requested clarification of the Planning
Commissionfs action on this item. Mr. Leslie indicated that
the Planning Commission had upheld the recent City Council
ordinance. Mayor Washburn questioned the application of that
ordinance to this situation, noting that he could understand
concerns when major thoroughfares or entrances are addressed.
Councilman Winkler reminded Council that the recent ordinance
removed the ability of the Planning Commission to allow wood
fencing.
City Manager Molendyk clarified that his understanding would
be that required block wall fencing for anything which is
visible from the streets. He noted that this project involves
elevated rear yard fences which might be visible.
Councilwoman Cherveny indicated that she could understand
requiring block walls for the perimeter, but not inside the
tract. City Manager Molendyk noted that the Century Homes
project has a block wall perimeter fence, however, because of
the elevations, a number of the interior wood fences are
visible from the road. City Planner Leslie stressed that this
project is a phased development with elevated slopes.
Councilman Winkler commented on the Centex Homes and the
combination of fencing styles utilized effectively. He noted
that a much better job had been done at that location and they
are aesthetically pleasing. He suggested that it was
incumbent on the applicant to determine what would be visible
and how to address the views. City Planner Leslie indicated
AGENDA ITEM NO • •
PAGE 2
PAGE TWENTY -TWO - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - SEPTEMBER 28, 1993
that this could be reviewed, but much more work would be
necessary to address visibility.
Councilman Winkler stressed that the view from Railroad Canyon
Road to Century Homes is not acceptable. He requested
clarification of the request from Lewis Homes. Mr. Leslie
indicated that their request was for wood interior fences.
Mimi Ryal, representing Lewis Homes, advised that they are
excited about proceeding with the project. She further
advised that their intent is to place slump block walls on the
perimeter and lot lines on the public right of way, as well as
the front returns between houses. She explained that they
would like to place wood fences on the rear and side property
lines, which are sturdier that the standard wood fence. She
detailed the building standards for the proposed fences. She
indicated that they would be willing to provide the entire
perimeter wall as part of the first phase.
Councilman Winkler inquired what type of wall would be along
Robb Road. Ms. Ryal indicated that it would be slump block.
Mr. Winkler questioned the front yard walls. Ms. Ryal
indicated that the front fences between homes would also be
slump block.
Councilman Winkler suggested that this matter return in two
weeks with elevations and detail regarding placement and type
of walls, as well as elevations if possible. He indicated he
would go look at the pad configuration in place.
MOVED BY WINKLER, SECONDED BY WASHBURN TO CONTINUE THIS MATTER FOR
TWO WEEKS TO ALLOW MORE INFORMATION AND REVIEW.
City Planner Leslie commented on the proposal as he understood
it and noted that he was pleased with the concept of slump
block for the front yard returns. He noted that typically
these are done in wood. He indicated that he could review and
suggest a compromise where not visible. Councilman Winkler
commented that he doesn't have a problem where the wood fences
are not visible.

38. Request from Citizen' Crime Watch.
Councilman Winkler noted a number of Crime Watch Committee
members present in the audience and explained that the
Committee would like to begin a patrol similar to that used in
Sun City. He further explained that it would be done by
volunteers to gather evidence and assist the Sheriff's
Department. He noted that such programs have worked well in
Sun City and Grand Terrace.
City Attorney Harper commented on the program in Grand Terrace
and advised that they are provided marked cars, a
comprehensive training program and officer supervision. He
noted that it has been very successful, possibly being the
reason that Grand Terrace has the lowest crime rate in San
Bernardino County.
Councilman Winkler advised that in sun City, there is a non-
profit corporation which buys cars; the program is
administered by the County Sheriff's Department with volunteer
patrols; and insurance is the responsibility of the County.
Mr. Winkler suggested that the Committee be given the use of
two City cars and cooperation of the Sheriff's Department with
Mr. Jim Sands and Mr. Richard Brown. He suggested that the
mechanics of the program be brought back for Council review.
