Mr. Porter stated that any development on the remaining portion which would require discretionary approval would be subject to the prorata share of the impact fee. Mr. Porter stated it may be more equitable to have a reduction not based on area but on traffic generation. Mr. Torn stated he sees thebusiness as a long term use and would like to see the users pay for as much of the signal as possible, and felt it would not be reasonable for the general fund to pay for as much of the signal as it will end up paying. ...

REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Mr. Trevino reported he has talked to Jim Anderson of Water Quality Control and has asked for more capacity at the City's existing Sewer Treatment Plant and he has given the City more capacity.

The County,would like all printed materials for the ballot by August 2nd. If the City Council wishes to place any measures on the ballot, that formal action would have to be taken by June 14th or before and recommends that the staff bring a formal report to the City Council setting forth some of the options and requirements on May 24th. Mr. Torn stated he was sure there would be a couple of items for con- sideration. Mr. Knight stated he would like staff to go back to the slide format of presentations, not for all sites, but those sites where it would assist the Council. Council concurred. Mr. Knight stated he has been told the the entrance to the Swap Meet would have to be designed through a joint effort of Caltrans and the City.
