(F:18.1)
City Manager Molendyk gave a brief overview of this item,
and noted that a Study Session was held on October 31, 1995.
He explained that it is recommended that the City Council
approve Ordinance No. 1003 for first reading which includes:
A. Revised fee schedule; B. Mandatory spay/neuter program;
C. Cat Licensing; and D. Breeding permit program.
Mayor Washburn opened the public hearing at 7:30 p.m. and
asked that Ann Washington of L.E.A.F. address Council.
Ann Washington stated that the County of Riverside and the
City of Temecula have passed an ordinance requiring that all
outdoor cats be altered and wear some type of
identification. She explained the large number of litters
born each year and the propensity of male cats to travel and
engage in fights and create a health hazard. Ms. Washington
addressed breeding permits and stated that most persons do
not plan to have litters and simply do not take the
responsibility to have their pets altered. She explained
that the result is 70,000 puppies and kittens born daily in
the United States, causing 17,000,000 animals to be put to
death annually. She further explained that the ordinance
presented will make it possible to bring the message home to
pet owners. Ms. Washington exPlained that breeders of pure-
....
....
PAGE ELEVEN - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - NOVEKBBR 14, 1995
licensing fees, cat owners receive an insurance policy to
help insure their cats return home, in the event they stray.
She noted that it is a useful law enforcement tool and that
cat licensing provides a way to raise needed revenues that
cat owners rightfully help pay for cat related services just
as dog owners do. She explained that cat licensing is a
vital tool for the control of rabies. She asked that
Council support this legislation.
Bill Starkey, President of L.E.A.F., spoke in support of the
Animal Control Ordinance. He supported the breeding permit
and stated that if someone needs a breeding permit, then
they should also have a City business license. He spoke in
strong support of cat licensing and stated that this would
spread the cost of Animal Control more evenly, since half of
the shelter is used by cats. He encouraged people to
consider the rabies vaccine for cats, since there have been
known cases of skunks biting cats and transmitting rabies.
He concluded by stating that the option is "fix them or kill
them" and stated that it is Council's decision.
Mariana Mohylyn, 305 W. Sumner, spoke in opposition to the
Animal Control Ordinance and stated that she is opposed to
licensing and neutering. She made note of the fact that she
feels that this is more government regulation and a way to
gain more money from the people.
Ken Howard, 17540 Grand Avenue, stated that he has two cats
which have had their rabies vaccine and catch several
gophers a week. He pointed out that there are several
people who cannot afford to license their cats and would not
be able to keep them. He explained that if the city takes
away the cats, then there is going to be major problems with
gophers, mice and rats.
Gary Grant, 27068 Jarvis st., Perris, explained that if the
City enforces this new ordinance there will be a dumping
problem with lots of people dumping their dogs and cats in
the surrounding areas. He asked that Council be sensitive
to this issue.
Mayor Washburn then asked if anyone else wished to speak.
Hearing no further requests, Mayor Washburn closed the
public hearing at 7:42 p.m.
Councilwoman Brinley asked if a cat is licensed, how an
owner could confine a cat to the yard and how would the
owner be fined. Ms. Washington stated that currently the
cat owner is fined the same amount as a dog owner. She
explained that cat owners do not seek their pets out and
feel that they might come home in a week to ten days, but
with some form of identification, it would be possible to
contact the owner and notify them that their pet had been
pi~~ed ~p. Councilwoman Brinley stated that ~hat she is
PAGE TWELVE - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - NOVEMBER 14, 1995
handled just the same as dogs. She stated that they enforce
animal control when they receive a complaint.
Councilman Pape questioned the affordability and asked that
the costs be discussed. Ms. Washington stated that what
L.E.A.F. has planned to do is a clinic that rabies vaccine
could be administered which would be $1.00, the micro-chip
implant installed which would be $6.00 and a license for a
senior citizen's pet would be $3.00 for the first year,
$5.00 for the second year and $7.00 for the third year. She
explained that ideally a cat should live inside since it
lives longer, but should a cat be an outdoor cat and get
picked up, this would be a way to scan the cat and contact
the owners which helps to prevent L.E.A.F. from having them
killed.
Mayor Washburn brought up the concern of Mr. Grant regarding
the dumping of pets in outlying areas. Ms. Washington
stated that it has been a fear of some agencies that have
this law into effect. She explained that this has not
happened, but rather they are putting less animals to death
and more animals are returned to their owners. She pointed
out that if someone does not want their cat there is no
charge, all they have to do is bring it into the shelter.
Councilman Pape detailed the current licensing costs and
noted that the mandatory spay/neuter program might be
getting close to crossing the line with government
interference. Councilman Pape stated that he does not have
a problem with cat licensing and feels that if it helps to
have an animal returned home, then he feels that it is worth
doing. He addressed the Breeding Permit and stated it is an
additional fee over the unaltered dog license and pointed
out that then it is really $50 for an unaltered dog and he
feels that this is a little too much. Councilman Pape
pointed out that if the owner already has an unaltered dog
license this would be an extra fee and not necessary since
we are already raising the fee for the license. He pointed
out that if the owner is breeding to make money then they
should have a business license with the city. Ms.
Washington pointed out that the major benefit of the
ordinance is the mandatory spay/neuter, as well as the
breeding permit which will make people take responsibility
for their pets and prevent them from having a first litter
which is killing 15 to 17 million animals. She explained
that mandatory spay/neuter or breeding permit will prevent
the first litter from happening and cut down on the amount
of dogs that are not wanted. Councilman Pape asked how much
it costs to have an animal spayed or neutered. Ms.
Washington stated that all the local vets do a low cost
program and make it available to pet owners as well as a
program sponsored by L.E.A.F. which allows the owner to pay
as much of the fee as possible, and then L.E.A.F. will pay
the remainder to the vet which could be up to 100%
....

accustomed to and if this program is successful, the aim and
goal is to see L.E.A.F. self supporting. He commended
L.E.A.F. for all their efforts and stated that he feels
that they are going in the right direction with less
interference from government and more toward being self-
sufficient.
Councilwoman Brinley stated that she feels that dog owners
have been made responsible for their pets and she feels that
it is a good thing for the cat owners to do the same.
City Attorney Harper reminded the Council that the passage
of any ordinance requires three positive votes.
Mayor Washburn asked what remaining concerns Council would
like to address. Councilman Pape stated that he has
concerns regarding item Band D. Councilwoman Brinley
stated that she had no other problems.
MOVED BY PAPE, SECONDED BY BRINLEY TO APPROVE ITEM "A", REVISED

Councilwoman Brinley stated that in regard to Item "c" she
felt that if the people are ever going to see the population
cut down, then something would have to be done about it.
City Attorney stated that the amendments are all to the same
ordinance and Council has adopted the two items of the
ordinance that they have agreed upon, and he explained that
a better way to handle this is to ascertain if Council will
have three votes in agreement and if they do adopt the form
in the Ordinance upon which they agree.

missing tonight. City Attorney stated that Council can
reopen the public hearing and continue the entire item until
the next regular Council Meeting which includes the new
Council. Mayor Washburn stated that he did not have a
problem with that. city Attorney Harper stated that the
public hearing can be can be handled in that manner or the
public hearing can be renoticed. He explained that if
Council wished to address the issues separately since the
vote has been in favor of the two items that they agree
upon, then it might be better if the public hearing is set
for an ordinance amending the ordinance that Council has
just acted upon to include the two additional items that
Council did not vote upon. He further explained that if
Council wishes to reconsider everything at one time, the
only way to accomplish this is to not pass anything at this
time and continue this item to a time certain or renotice
the item. city Attorney stated that if Council wishes to
amend the ordinance by their vote tonight and renotice an
ordinance amending this one to be heard later.
Mayor Washburn stated that he does not feel it is
appropriate that this item be heard in parts. City Attorney
Harper stated that Council can reopen the public hearing and
continue it to the first meeting in December.

whehter screening had been required. Mr. Leslie indicated

35. city Council position Reaardina the Cleveland Ridae

city Manager Molendyk explained that in 1986 a number of
cities did a study which was approved by LAFCO relating to

PAGE TWENTY-TWO - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - NOVEMBER 14, 1995
annex, since that takes the vote of the residents or action
by the developer, therefore the City's position is to concur
with the existing Sphere of Influence and LAFCO's decision
and further noted that there is no need for a Community of
Interest within the City's Sphere of Influence. City
Manager Molendyk stated that there was a concern regarding
the City's acquisition of the Lake and one of the conditions
was that there be a Specific Plan for the area around the
Lake and it was felt that one of the key issues was the
management of the Lake. He explained that the City accepted
the Lake with the understanding that the City would do the
Lake Edge Specific Plan and it was understanding of the
State that the City would have input of land planning of the
property adjacent to the perimeter of the Lake and the
Community of Interest would be in conflict with the
agreement made with the State of California.
Mayor Washburn then called upon the persons who wished to
speak as follows:
Ace Vallejos, 15231 Cobre st., stated that he is one of the
Chief Petitioners and indicated that they received 1200
signatures of registered voters in order to go forward with
their application for the Community of Interest. He stated
that this application was sent to the City for comments and
suggestions. He further stated that he had submitted five
fliers for Council regarding the Community of Interest, Town
Hall Meeting at Butterfield Elementary School, November 15,
1995, between 7:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. He explained that
this meeting will explain exactly what the Community of
Interest is and how it will affect the area and answer any
questions that people might have. Mr. Vallejos stated that
he does not know why this item is on the City Council __
Agenda.
Gary Grant, Chief Petitioner of the Meadowbrook Community of
Interest, stated that in his opinion the primary reason for
this action is because, in his opinion, the community within
the area has not had the opportunity to grow. He explained
that there is the possibility that the area could develop
and eventually become a city. He further explained that
what he has seen happen is that these areas have been
annexed piecemeal and have not been allowed to grow and
develop naturally. Mr. Grant stated that he feels that the
Community of interest allows the people to develop their
options, and noted the possible options. He explained that
any time a Sphere of Influence is imposed upon an area it
can breed resentment and pointed out that people have the
right to choose and recognize where they wish to go with
their area.
city Manager Molendyk explained that the reason this item is
on the Agenda is because LAFCO has asked for an official
position by the City Council on the Cleveland Ridge
community of Interest Application. He pointed out that even
....
PAGE TWEHTY-TKREB - CITY COUNCIL MINUTBS - HOVBKBBR 14, 1995
passed a law that almost makes it impossible for any area to
become its own city. He explained that in the past, before
an area became a new city, they captured the tax to afford
the ability to run the new city and now the County takes 50%
of that tax, which makes it almost impossible to become a
new city since that law has passed. city Manager Molendyk
pointed out that in reference to the area around the lake
which is part of the community, and noted that it
encourages the developers to view the City as a "no growth"
area and impedes future economic growth for the entire area.
Ken Howard, Lakeland Village, explained that many of the
residents of Lakeland Village doubt the direction of City
interests and how they have spent a lot of money on the Lake
with no results. He pointed out that amount of debt that
the City has incurred and stated that Lakeland Village does
not wish to be a part of that.
Mayor Washburn stated that the concerns that the City would
have are that this action goes against what has already been
adopted by the County, with regard to the boundaries which
cities would have jurisdictional responsibility. He noted
that all the Community of Interests that have gone into
effect thus far have gone against the grain of the cities
involved and pointed out that the County does not want to
adhere to the agreements that have already be entered into.
He pointed out that this is a major disturbing factor. He
explained that the Cleveland Ridge Community of Interest
Application is stepping way beyond guidelines set by LAFCO.
Mayor Washburn pointed out that the suggested COI goes from
urban area to vacant area as well as part of the Public
Cleveland National Forest land area and he felt that the
Community of Interest proponents are stepping way beyond the
guidelines that were set for this type of action. He
expressed concern regarding proper representation and noted
that that the persons involved do not represent all the
little pocket areas which are involved in this action.
Mayor Washburn stated that the area in question has had
several opportunities to clean up the area through a
Redevelopment movement made by the County and stated that
Lakeland Village has many problems to address. He pointed
out that the City has tried to take a direct approach to its
problems and tried to solve those problems. Mayor Washburn
stated that in his opinion, the City should oppose the COI
and state the City's concerns regarding the future economy
of the entire community.
Councilman Pape stated that he was elected by the citizens
of Lake Elsinore to make decisions which are based on what
is in their best interest and in regard to this issue he
feels that it is in their best interest to inform LAFCO that
the City is opposed to this action. He pointed out that
this action seems similar to the "Old West" land grabs by
studying the maps that were provided by Council. He
exnlained that there are huae Dockets of vacant land and
PAGE TWENTY-FOUR - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES - NOVEMBER 14, 1995
Pape stated that years ago cities set up Spheres of
Influence for a purpose and as cities downsize what is
needed is to look at less government and not more of it and
if small pockets are added, then more cost is added to each
individual citizen and efforts are duplicated. He made note
of the fact that he knows several people in Lakeland Village
who do want to annex into the City and the School District
is considering moving into the City. He pointed out the
difference from the County to the City. He stated that he
actively opposes the COI for Cleveland Ridge.
Councilwoman Brinley stated that she concurs with the other
comments by Council.

36. Proposed city Curfew Ordinance No. 1010. (F:127.2)
City Attorney Harper noted that the existing Curfew
Ordinance was adopted many years ago and no longer complies
with the Statutes or the Constitution. He explained the new
ordinance which imposes a 10 p.m. curfew with a few
exceptions, which allow for jobs and organized social
activities.
Councilman Pape explained that he sees this ordinance as a
response to the graffitti problems. He noted that he has
met to discuss this ordinance with the City Attorney and
Police Chief; and will be bringing back information on a
program to allow for crime sweeps and requiring that the
parents come out to pick up the minors caught in the
process. He stressed the intent of this ordinance.
Councilwoman Brinley stressed the exceptions to the curfew
limitation and requested that the City Attorney clarify the
exceptions further. City Attorney Harper explained all of
the exceptions.
Mayor Washburn concurred with the need to tighten this
ordinance. He stressed the need to get the word out about
the new ordinance provisions, possibly through the schools
or the local media.
Ken Howard congratulated the City on this effort and
concurred that it would help to eliminate graffitti. He
also expressed concern with dumping and other problems on
his property.
