Resolution of intention.to vacate a portion of former Railroad Canyon Road, northerly of and adjacent to Mission Trail. -- Mayor Unsworth announced this was the time and place for a public hearing on resolution declaring intention to vacate a portion of former Railroad Canyon Road, northerly of and adjacent to Mission Trail. Mr. Rubel reported that —tie public hearing on this vacation was opened at the Council Meeting of January 11, 1983 and was continued to January 25,1983. Staff has reviewed traffic flow in the area of the proposed vacation and feels the portion of 61d Railroad Canyon Road between Frontier Road and Lakeshore Drive is too close to existing Railroad Canyon Road to function safely as a public street and creates traffic conflicts. Mr. Rubel also clarified the status of the remainder of former Railroad Canyon Road which was deeded to Mr. Robert G. Williams by Cal- Trans. Staff recommends adoption of resolution of vacation. The recording secretary stated no correspondence had been received regarding the street vacation. Mayor Unsworth opened the public hearing at 7:53 p.m. asking those in favor of the vacation to speak. Mr. Robert G. Williams, 32172 Machado Street, Lake Elsinore, stated he is the benefactor of the vacation and would be available to answer any questions. Mr. Lee Allen, 270 Avenue 9, Lake Elsinore, stated that the street being open to vehicular traffic has caused some problems. If vacated, will there be a barricade so that it will be closed off to vehicular traffic to avoid accidents? The portable barricades are being ignored. Mr. Porter responded by stating that if Council approves the vacation, staff should continue in efforts to diminish any safety hazard until such time as construction begins on the adjacent property. Mayor Unsworth asked if anyone would like to speak in opposition to the vacation. No one asked to speak. Mayor Unsworth closed the public hearing at 7:56 p.m. 4 Page Four City Council Mirites January 25, 1983 PUBLIC HEARINGS - continued 33.

Moved by Torn, seconded by Knight, to deny the request and require installa- tion of parking requirements. (Motion and second withdrawn). f.. Reverend Michael Luke, Pastor of the United Pentecostal Church of Elsinore spoke to the Council and asked they reconsider his request for the following reasons: 1.

Request for Refund of Tentative Tract Map 16563 Processing Fees - Fred Dominguez Mr. Trevino -reported on Planning Department review of this request. Mr. Dominguez made application for a tentative parcel map and paid fees of $450.00 on May 20, 1980. The map was approved on January 27, 1981. The delay was partially the result of confusion caused by conflicting recommendations between the Engineering and Planning Departments. Tentative Tract Map 16563 expired on July 27, 1982. After reviewing this matter with the city attorney, staff recommends refunding the full amount of $450.00 to the applicant. MOVED BY TORN, SECONDED BY VALENZUELA,AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY TO REFUND THE FULL AMOUNT OF $450.00 TO THE APPLICANT, MR. FRED DOMINGUEZ. Page Five City Council Minutes January 25, 1983 BUSINESS ITEMS - continued 53. Agreement Between the City and the YMCA Beverly Sommer gave staff report and explained this proposal would be a cooperative agreement between the City of Lake Elsinore and the YMCA, for use and scheduling of the Lake Community Center for recreational activities which would be provided to all the citizens of Lake Elsinore. The YMCA will pay a rental fee of $1.00 per year for the use of an office in the Community Center. Staff recommends Council approve and execute agreement with YMCA. Mr. Len Kaiser, YMCA Board of Directors, stated the Board approved the contract at their meeting last week. Ms. Valenzuela stated she is not comfortable with the agreement as it is written. She would like to see the agreement reworded to clarify the separate functions and responsibilities of the City and of the YMCA. Mr. Porter stated he felt the Council needed to determine what the intent of the agreement is in order to evaluate the agreement. Mr. Torn stated that cooperative agreements of this nature are based on a certain amount of trust. However, due to the changes that occur in Councils and Board of Directors of organizations, the agreement should be more structured in order to avoid any problems or mis- interpretations in the future. Ms. Valenzuela also stated that Resolutions 82 -59 and 82 -60 would need to be amended to reflect use and regulation of the Nutrition Center which is under construction at the Community Center. Mr. Knight stated he would like the agreement to specify the exact location of the office space which the YMCA would occupy within the Lake Community Center. MOVED BY TORN, SECONDED BY VALENZUELA,AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY TO APPROVE THE AGREEMENT IN CONCEPT PENDING ADDITIONAL CLARIFICATION OF THE FINAL AGREEMENT AND DIRECT STAFF TO BRING BACK A NEW AMENDED AGREEMENT OR AN ADDITIONAL AGREEMENT TO COINCIDE WITH THE EXISTING AGREEMENT AND THE RESOLUTIONS SETTING FEES BE RE- WRITTEN TO REFLECT THE NEW USES FORESEEN THROUGH THE ADDITION OF THE KITCHEN FACILITY. 54. Review of Conditional Use Permit 82 -3 - Beachcomber R.V. Park - 32401 Stoneman Street Mr. Trevino reported on July 13, 1982, the City Council approved Conditional Use Permit 82 -3 subject to nineteen conditions. On the same evening, they also approved Zone Change 82 -4 rezoning the applicants' R -1 property to R, so that it could be utilized as part of the R.V. Park. The applicants met with staff to resolve some of the problems which had to be overcome in order to obtain approval for this project. Because of the applicants' willingness to meet City and County requirements, Council approved this Conditional Use Permit subject,to nineteen conditions recommended by the Planning Commission, which had to be met prior to operation of the park. At this time, only a few of these conditions have been met. Staff recom- mends extension of Conditional Use Permit 82 -3 for six months in order for applicants to meet the remainder of these conditions and pay all applicable permit fees. Mr. Jim Rhoades, 15758 Grand Avenue, Lake Elsinore, spoke on behalf of the applicants and attempted to update the Council on progress made on some of the original conditions as well as problems which they had faced in meeting some of the requirements. Mr. Rhoades also requested Council review and reconsider the capital improvement fees. MOVED BY TORN, SECONDED BY VALENZUELA, AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY TO TABLE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 82 -3 AND CONTINUE TO FEBRUARY 8, 1983 MEETING. Mr. Rhoades presented copies of business license and building permits which were obtained by the previous owners of this property in order to establish there did exist a legal mobile home park prior to the applicants purchase of this property. 22 Page Six City Council Minutes January 25, 1983 55. Public Improvements required as a condition of building permits - Policy on time of installation. Mr. Rubel reported that in the past there has not been consistency in reacting to owners requests to defer installation of public improvements. Mr. Rubel recommended that off -site improvements be installed in conformance with the following policy: 1. In the normal situation, the public improvements will be installed prior to obtaining certificate of occupancy. 2. Under certain circumstances, public improvements may be deferred and a �. recorded agreement accepted to guarantee future installation thereof. Mr. Rubel recommended adoption of the resolution establishing a policy for determining the time of installation of public improvements which are re- quired by Ordinance No. 572 as a condition of a building permit. Mr. Torn stated he would like the last paragraph of the resolution to be revised. Discussion followed regarding City Attorney approval on legal doc- uments which are presented to Council for vote. Mr. Porter stated that it had been discussed but never resolved as to whether city attorney approval on documents should be prior to Council action or after Council has been asked to make a determination. Consensus of Council was to revise the last paragraph of the resolution to read: BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the public improvements may be deferred due to existing engineering problems at the site, upon approval of the City Council, based on recommendation of the City Engineer and concurrence of the City Manager, and all documents to be approved and signed by the City Attorney prior to being presented to Council. MOVED BY VALENZUELA, SECONDED BY KNIGHT, AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY TO TABLE THE RESOLUTION AND REFER TO CITY ATTORNEY FOR REVISION AND APPROVAL. 56. Street Improvements at Riverside Drive and Lincoln Street - Change Order No. 4 and Notice of Completion. Mr. Rubel reported that in June, 1981, City Council approved a contract with All American Asphalt for the construction of certain street improvements along the westerly side of Riverside Drive on both sides of Lincoln Avenue. Subsequently, three change orders were issued for additional work and involving additional costs. During the course of construction, the con- tractor was requested to omit certain portions of the work because right -of- way was not yet available. By the time the City has acquired the necessary right -of -way, the contractor had completed all remaining work on the project and had moved his equipment and crews off the site. The contractor informed the City that his move -back costs to complete the project would amount to $4,754.00. Contractor has received payment for all work completed to this point, less the standard 10% retention. Mr. Rubel recommends processing a change order deleting all unfinished work, accept the project as complete, file a Notice of Completion, and pay the 10% retention sum 30 days after the Notice of Completion has been recorded. The remainder of work on this project can be accomplished more reasonably and efficiently through informal bids from contractors who are working on local subdivisions and would not require excessive equipment move -in costs. Council asked Mr. Rubel for clarification of what work was remaining on the project. After discussion, Mr. Rubel stated he felt the remainder of this job would cost approximately $3,000 to $5,000 and could be accomplished through informal bids. MOVED BY TORN, SECONDED BY UNSWORTH AND CARRIED TO APPROVE CHANGE ORDER NO. 4. AYES: KNIGHT, MAC MURRAY, TORN, UNSWORTH NOES: VALENZUELA ABSENT: NONE ABSTENTIONS: NONE Mr. Knight commented that as Council has stated in the past, we are absolutely against contractors coming back with change orders because they under -bid the job on material or for any other reason. Page Seven City Council Minptes January 25, 1983 BUSINESS ITEMS - continued 56. Street Improvements at Riverside Drive and Lincoln Street - Change Order No. 4 and Notice of Completion - continued. Council concurred to have city crews place a small amount of black -top to level out the bump at Riverside Drive and Lincoln. COUNCIL CONCURRED TO TAKE A BREAK AT 9:28 p.m. COUNCIL RECONVENED AT 9:40 p.m. 57. Swick Park Improvements - Change Order No. 1 Mr. Rubel reported the contract for this project was awarded to Allied Sprinkler Co, on November 18, 1982 and included fencing and backstops for both Senior League and Little League fields as well as lighting for the Little League field only. Staff has determined that a portion of the 20 foot length of fencing adjacent to the Senior League field backstop should be six feet higher at an additional cost of $400.00. Council discussion followed with regard to the type of backstops which were being installed at the Jark. Council would like to see backstops of a newer modern design which would enhance and upgrade the facility. Mr. Rubel stated that he would consult with the contractor to see if it would be possible to switch to a new design and what the additional cost would be. Council concurred to have this item continued and brought back at the next Council meeting in two weeks. 58. City Council to Act as Appeals Board Mr. Trevino reviewed staff report and recommended the City Council appoint themselves as the permanent Housing Advisory and Appeals Board as this would eliminate one administrative step of an appeals procedure for unsafe building abatement. By Council accepting the responsibility for Appeals Board matters, it would alleviate a request to have the matter reheard by Council. These matters would be set to coincide with City Council meetings and would be heard prior to regular Council business. With Council acting as the Appeals Board, the matter would then be at its last administrative hearing and would elimin- ate the duplication of staff time. MOVED BY VALENZUELA, SECONDED BY MAC MURRAY, AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY THAT THE CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS BE APPOINTED AS PERMANENT HOUSING ADVISORY AND APPEALS BOARD. 59. Ordinance No. 666 - Refuse Disposal Services - (Second Reading) MOVED BY VALENZUELA, SECONDED BY MAC MURRAY, TO READ ORDINANCE NO. 666 BY TITLE ONLY.

ORDINANCE NO. 666 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, ADDING SECTION 8.16.095 TO THE LAKE ELSINORE MUNICIPAL CODE, PERTAINING TO OWNER- TENANT AGREEMENTS FOR REFUSE DISPOSAL SERVICES. MOVED BY TORN, SECONDED BY VALENZUELA, AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY TO APPROVE THE SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 666.

Roof Pitch Ordinance and Litigation Mr. Porter reported in late 1981, Edward Watt made application for a mobile/ manufactured home, which was denied for several reasons, but particularly because of insufficient roof pitch. On administrative appeal to the City Council, the Design Review Board denial was affirmed and Mr. Watt's appeal was denied. Mr. Watt subsequently filed a lawsuit against the City, challenging the validity of Ordinance 621, requiring a 4 -12 roof pitch, and seeking damages. A motion for summary judgment was scheduled to be heard on January 18, 1983. The pending motion against the City was denied. Mr. Porter suggested since this involved a matter of litigation, Council may wish to consider this item in closed session. Mayor Unsworth stated he saw no problem in discussing the matter at this time. He stated he was in favor of the new ordinance which would amend Ordinance No. 621 requiring a 4 inch to 12 inch (4 -12) roof pitch. He,,,,voted against Ordinance No. 621 because he felt it went against the idea of State law which allowed mobile homes to be placed on any R -1 lot. At the time, mobile home manufacturers did not make a,structure with a 4 -12 roof pitch. Also, Cal -trans confirmed the height of -these structures would normally prevent their passing under freeway overpasses and make transporting mobile homes extremely diffi- cult. Ordinance No. 621 was passed in an effort to eliminate indiscriminate movement of mobile homes onto R -1 lots throughout the City. However, since the Design Review Board must approve all building projects within the City, this would afford the community adequate protection against indiscriminate placement of any undesireable structures in established residential areas. Mr. Torn stated he voted in favor of Ordinance 621 and the 4 -12 roof pitch and opposes the new ordinance. He said Ordinance 621 did work as a deterent to mobile home movement onto single R -1 lots for a time. Presently, however, the mobile home industry has been manufacturing many homes with the 4 -12 roof pitch. He opposes any change in roof pitch requirements. Larry. Knight stated he was against Ordinance 621 because he saw no need for a %Mao 4 -12 roof pitch except-for loading, as in areas of heavy snowfall. Government Code SB 1960 states that requirements imposed on mobile home structures shall be limited to roof overhang, roof material and siding matter only. Ms. Valenzuela stated, in her opinion, a 4 -12 roof pitch is not necessary in Southern California and the City has no right to place this kind of restriction on builders. Mr. Torn pointed out the old ordinance did not attempt to discriminate against mobile homes but to require all residential dwellings to have a 4 -12 roof pitch. Moved by Knight, seconded by Valenzuela that all references to roof pitch on single - family residences be eliminated as a requirement of constructing that residence. AYES: KNIGHT NOES: MAC MURRAY, ABSENT: NONE ABSTENTIONS: NONE Motion did not pass. TORN, VALENZUELA, UNSWORTH Mr. Unsworth reiterated that he feels the original ordinance was an attempt to eliminate mobile home movement into the City and is not in accordance with State law. This could result'in future litigation and he does not want the .... City to be party to a legal action. Mr. Torn stated, in his opinion, the State should not have the right to dictate to a community where they can allow mobile homes to be placed. This should be a matter for local jurisdiction. MOVED BY VALENZUELA, SECONDED BY MAC MURRAY TO READ THE ROOF PITCH ORDINANCE BY TITLE ONLY. The recording secretary read the title of the ordinance.

Mr. Unsworth explained the normal procecure which is followed at all Council meetings. Mr. Terrazas asked as to the disposition of Business Item 55 - public improvements required as a condition of building permit. He was informed this item was tabled and referred to the City Attorney for review and would be brought back at the February 8 Council meeting. Mr. Terrazas also voiced his concern and opposition to the City Council being appointed as Appeals Board. Mr. Porter stated that Council complied with Code - they have the right to decide who is qualified to sit on Appeals Board. Mr. Terrazas requested copy of the minutes of this meeting. REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Mr. Knight commented on homemade signs posted all over the City, on trees, poles and posts. He would like to see these eliminated. Mr. Knight asked Bob Jacobson to report on the City Park project. Mr. Jacobson reported the project is going extremely well. On Wednesday morning, weather permitting, the concrete will,.be poured for the gazebo. = ,Donations from - merchants such as Luna Tile, Pacific Clay and Seers Lumber are coming in as promised and all work is on schedule. Actual construction of the gazebo should commence the week of January 31. Mr. Knight commented he would like to see an ordinance drawn up to prevent children from riding bikes on sidewalks as they are a hazard to senior citizens as well as young people. Mr. Knight complimented Public Works crews on the concrete repair work they did in front of the Pat Lux property. Ms. Valenzuela extended sympathy on behalf of the City Council to Helen Schoolcraft who lost her husband a few days ago and to Deborah Harrington whose brother passed away last weekend. Both services are scheduled for Thursday at 2:00 p.m. at the Arlington Cemetery in Riverside. Ms. Valenzuela also reported 'that work on the Nutrition Center at the Lake Community Center is underway.
