Applicant to meet County of Riverside Fire Department requirements. 13. Applicant to provide adequate signs for street terminations and deline- ation for traffic control at the location of the barricades at existing Campbell Street and Railroad Canyon Road South, as required by the City Engineer. 14.

Applicant shall provide a hydrology study and make necessary provisions to grade this site to insure storm drain water run-off away from the end of Campbell Street and Railroad Canyon Road South. 16. Pay equitable vehicular traffic safety mitigation (signalization) fee. The fee to be recommended to the City Council is approximately $16,550.00, payable $5,000.00 the first year, $5,500.00 the second year, and $6,050.00 the third year. 17. Assist the City in forming a Lighting and Landscaping District. 18. Dedicate underground water rights to the City of Lake Elsinore. (PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS THIS CONDITION BE DELETED). 19. Applicant to contribute $36,600.00 to street improvements on Mission Trail, because applicant utilizes a large property with no direct frontage, but the use of streets by applicant will generate traffic and cause congestion on streets. The burden for off-site improvements on Mission Trail should not fall entirely onto the lots fronting on Mission Trail. The recommended contribution to Mission Trail off-site improvements is based on the following rationale: The total cost of a planned 76 foot roadway for 1400 foot frontage from Campbell Street to Ma1aga Street is $144,000. These improvements include paving, curb and gutter, side- walk, street lighting and improved drainage. It is assumed that app- licant should contribute one-fourth, or $36,000.00 of the cost of these future off-site improvements to the centerline of Mission Trail. It is proposed that the $36,000.00 be paid over a three year period at $12,000.00 per year. (PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDS THIS CONDITION BE BROUGHT INTO A FAIR SHARE AMOUNT AND AMORTIZED OVER THE THREE (3) YEAR PERIOD.) 20. Provide to City drainage release and/or easement for storm water run-off discharges from pipes and ditches concentrating onto applicant's property. Indemnify City from liability as approved by City Attorney. '224 Page five City Council Minutes October 25, 1983 PUBLIC HEARINGS - Continued. 31.

Mayor Unsworth opened the public hearing at 7:43 p.m. asking those in favor of Conditional Use Permit 83-9 to speak. Ed Snyder, 32241 Barnes Lane, the applicant, stated he and his partner have been working with staff and are in agreement with many of the proposed conditions, but some remain unresolved. He stated that ultralight activity has created employment within the community, bringing people to live and work in Lake Elsinore and contributing to the local economy. ... Richard Avalon, Porterville, California, an air show organizer, spoke in favor of Conditional Use Permit 83-9. He stated that this ultralight facility has a very positive reputation in the aviation community. William Meyer, P.O. Box 69, Muri~tta, California, spoke in favor of the project and offered to answer questions of Council. Paul Baccus, 17445 Lakeshore Drive, stated he is in favor of the project but would like to see some protective measures for the bird population who have a habitat in that area. Mayor Unsworth asked those in opposition to Conditional Use Permit 83-9 to speak. No one asked to speak.

Approval of Reduced Street Widths - Higgens Development. Mr. Rubel reported that a letter has been received from Fred Crowe, Butter- field Surveys, representing property owners Michael Merlino and Jack Higgens, who are proposing to develop an area northwesterly of Turnbull Avenue be- tween Bunker Street and Gunnerson Street. The developers are requesting that Turnbull Avenue and some adjacent proposed streets be approved for construction at a reduced width of 40 feet. The present standard requires 50-foot minimum right-of-way width and a 32-foot curb-to-curb width. Since most of the streets in the Country Club Heights area are 40 feet wide, staff re~ommends approval of this request. Mr. Unsworth stated it was his understa"ding that the General Plan had desig- nated all the streets in the Country Club Heights area as 40-foot widths. Mr. Rubel stated he researched and could find no evidence that the General Plan had reduced these street widths. He plans to propose this at the next General Plan amendment hearing. It was determined that the General Plan addressed the width of streets of record, either existing or on paper. However, the streets in question were non-existent at that time. Council needs to make additional findings as necessary regarding newly proposed streets. MOVED BY VALENZUELA, SECONDED BY TORN AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY TO APPROVE REQUEST FOR 40 FOOT STREET WIDTHS FOR TURNBULL AVENUE FROM BUNKER STREET TO GUNNERSON STREET AND OTHER PROPOSED ACCESS STREETS AND, THIS APPROVAL DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A CERTIFICATE OF COMPLIANCE. 59. Swick Park Lighting and Fencing Contract Liquidated Damages. Mr. Rubel reported that on September 12, 1983, Council accepted the Swick Park lighting and landscaping project and authorized recordation of a Notice of Completion. On November 8, 1983, which is thirty-five days after recordation of the Notice of Completion, the remaining funds must be released to Allied Sprinkler Company. In view of the fact there were numerous problems with this contractor and the project did not progress satisfactorily, staff recommends Council authorize withholding $2,000 ($800 for liquidated damages and $1200 for work performed by the City) from the 10 percent retention figure of $11,432.85, and authorize re- lease of remaining funds to the contractor of $9,432.85. Don Eickhoff, President of Allied Sprinkler Company, addressed Council and stated that many delays and problems were encountered on this project. He~fee1s the company did all in their power to speed up the project but many of the problems were beyond the contractor1s control. Mr. Trevino commented that staff ~as met with representatives of Allied Sprinkler Company and they had agreed to the liquidated damages and to all the figures stated herein. Mr. Porter stated that this matter seemed destined for litigation. He also suggested that if these figures are not acceptable, staff will need to review and determine what the actual claim is and what the new figures will be and bring back a report to Council. MOVED BY TORN, SECONDED BY MAC MURRAY AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY TO REFER THIS ITEM TO STAFF FOR FURTHER STUDY. 60. Appeal of William S. Buck - Residential Project No. 83-2. Mr. Trevino reported that on October 11, 1983, Council heard the appeal of Residential Project No. 83-2 by William S. Buck. Council directed the matter be held over for two weeks allowing staff to meet with the appli- cant and attempt to resolve the problems. Staff met with the City Attorney and then with Mr. Buck and the final outcome was that Mr. Buck would apply for a General Plan amendment. Mr. Buck has agreed and has started proceedings towards filing the General Plan amendment on his property. Therefore, staff recommends denial of the appeal to allow this matter to proceed in a proper manner. Mr. Trevino confirmed that he is committed to assisting Mr. Buck in getting his project on the agenda for 228 Page nine City Council Minutes October 25, 1983 BUSINESS ITEMS - Continued. 60.

COUNCIL RECONVENED AT 9:10 P.M. - PUBLIC COMMENTS Paul Baccus, 17445 Lakeshore Drive, commented on the good job the City has been doing in cleaning up Lakeshore Drive. New guardrails are in place, however, the old guardrail was left behind and needs to be cleared away. Dick Knapp, 29690 Dwan Drive commented that four weeks ago he spoke to Council regarding the need for street signs in the Country Club Heights area. Posts and signs have now been put in place and he thanked Pat Rodgers and City crews for the good work. Bob Jacobson, 174 North Chestnut, commented on the poor condition of Lakeshore Drive just westerly of Riverside Drive. Since this is a County road, it was suggested that Mr. Jacobson write a letter to the County. Pat Rodgers agreed to work with the County and try to solve the problem. Lee Allen, 217 Avenue 9, asked about the equipment in the river near the bridge. Pat Rodgers stated crews are stripping the island of debris so that it will not damage the bridge and cause it to wash out during the rainy season. John Mo1vin, 411 Davis Street, thanked Council and staff for completing the improvements on Davis Street and for cutting down weeds along Chaney Street. Kevin Jeffries, 17682 Grand Avenue, requested a meeting be scheduled with the City Manager, City Attorney and City P1anner,to discuss Tentative Tract Map 19561, before November 15. Mr. Trevino will follow-up. - OFF-AGENDA ITEM Mr. Unsworth announced that the International Soroptomists of Lake Elsinore are requesting the use of the Community Center to present a fashion show for the benefit of Randy William's prosthesis. They request a waiver of fees except for clean-up fees. MOVED BY TORN, SECONDED BY VALENZUELA AND CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY TO APPROVE THE REQUEST AND WAIVE THE FEES. REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Mr. Torn asked when the traffic signal at Railroad Canyon and Mission Trail will be activated. Pat Rodgers stated approximately two weeks. Mr. Torn requested staff set a study session during the month of November, if possible, for a quarterly budget review. - Mr. Torn commented that the vacant lot at the intersection of Lincoln and Riverside Drive is being used as a used car lot. Many vehicles park there with 'For Sale' signs on them. This is not an appropriate use of the property and he would like a weekend person to follow-up. Mr. Mac Murray commented on a section of Lakeshore Drive between Graham and Iowa Street. He would like to suggest the speed limit be reduced from 45 mph to 35 mph and a double yellow line be added. He requested staff follow-up and bring back a report to Council. 22~ Page ten City Council Minutes October 25, 1983 REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS - Continued. Mr. Knight made the following recommendations for staff follow-up: 1) Requested some decomposed granite be used on Heald Street where it crosses the ditch. 2) Insure there is adequate drain capacity at the new carwash on Riverside Drive near Four Corners. The area already has existing drainage problems. 3) Left-turn lanes on Machado Street at the park and onto Joy Street. The last time this was discussed, the estimate given was approximately $500. This would be a good project to coordinate with the re-striping of Lakeshore Drive. Mr. Knight complimented staff on filling-in of the railroad tracks on Graham Street. 00 ~ ~ '-:> Cl o Mr. Knight announced there would be a 'Sock Hop' at the Community Center on Saturday, October 29, featuring 50's music. This is another youth activity being sponsored by the City through our Community Service Program. Mr. Unsworth commented on the new carwash on Riverside Drive stating dirt has been piled onto adjacent property and needs to be cleaned up. Mr. Unsworth gave an update on the Neighborhood Watch Program. Classes started last Thursday.
