Martin, Police Chief Don Davis, Fire Chief William A. Goggin, City Planner Howard Stup, Building Official Thomas Tincher, Housing & Redevelopment Coordinator Robert L. Shand, City Clerk -Treasurer Judy McDonnell, Executive Secretary The Flag Salute was led by Councilman Mackaig. The Invocation was delivered by Reverend Mike Winstead, Downey United Methodist Church. Mayor Greene announced HEARINGS Mayor Greene opened the hearing on the -1979-80 Fifth Year Housing and Community Development Block Grant Application, as required by Federal Regulations to obtain the views of citizens on the proposed application and to obtain any comments from the -- public on the performance of the program to date. He inquired if the City Clerk had the Proof of Publication, and the City Clerk replied yes. It was moved by Councilman Jackman, seconded by Councilman Miller, and passed by unanimous vote to receive and file the Proof. Mr. Tincher reported the hearing is the first stage in the formal application to the State and Regional Clearing Houses for A-95 review and ultimate submittal to HUD. He commented on the funding levels anticipated this next year for Public Works Projects, Acquisition Clearance and Relocation, Housing Rehabilitation Assistance, Code Enforcement, Project Coordination and City Reimbursement, Planning Program System Management Participation, and a Contengency, for a total entitlement of $982,000 for the 1979-80 period. Upon approval by HUD,staff will prepare a formal budget detailing staffing requirements and expenditures anticipated under each of the program categories, Mr. Thompson read into the record of the hearing a letter from Mr. Mike Huggins, Member of the Downey Recreation and Community Services Commission, requesting the Council establish a Youth Commission and that $100,000 of Community Development Funds be set aside for youth programs. He then explained that under the law for the Block Grant Program there are certain guidelines to be met, and those funds must be spent for programs or facilities benefitting either the low or moderate income people or housing for low or moderate income families. It would be difficult to perform in �_- accordance with Mr. Huggins' request under HCD Funds guidelines. The Apollo Park Neighborhood Center was purchased and developed largely under HCD Funds, and programs can be designed to accommodate neighborhood community purposes for the entire City. There being no one present to speak to the Application, it was moved by Council- man Mackaig, seconded by Councilman Jackman, and passed by unanimous vote to close the hearing. It was moved by Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Jackman, and passed by unanimous vote to authorize the City Manager to forward the Application to the State and Regional Clearing Houses for A-95 Review; to file the Application and Clearing House Comments with the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development; and authorize the City Manager to.provide HUD with any additional information which would be perti- nent to their review.

AYES, 5 Council Members, Jackman, Miller, Mackaig, Swearingen, Greene ORDINANCES ORDINANCE NO. 586 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOWNEY AMENDING SECTION 9160.08(e) (5) WHICH SAID SECTION RELATES TO ZONING The Ordinance was read by title only. It was moved by Councilman Miller and seconded by Councilman Jackman to waive further reading. It was moved by Councilman Mackaig, seconded by Councilman Swearingen, and passed by the following vote to adopt Ordinance No. 586. AYES, 3 Council Members, Jackman, Mackaig, Swearingen NOES, 2 Council Member, Miller, Greene ORDINANCE NO. 587 AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DOWNEY AMENDING THE MUNICIPAL CODE BY ADDING SECTION 4135 WHICH SECTION RELATES TO THE DISPLAY OR OFFER FOR SALE OF DRUG PARAPHERNALIA The Ordinance was read by title only. It was moved by Councilman Jackman and seconded by Councilman Mackaig to waive further reading. It was moved by Councilman Jackman, seconded by Councilman Mackaig, and passed by the following vote to adopt Ordinance No. 587, Mr. Shand advised a letter was received today from Mrs. Darlene Ingwersen, President of the Downey Council of Parents and Teachers, Inc., urging enactment of the Ordinance. Chief Martin explained it was his understanding several factions in the com- munity brought this problem to the City Council and requested if a method was availa- ble to control the sale of narcotic paraphernalia to minors. In an effort to meet that request and the needs of the community, and after reviewing ordinances enacted by surrounding communities, an Ordinance was prepared but taken under submission and rewritten. Chief Martin stated that after reading this Ordinance, he feels it is more fair, more equitable, and would handle the problems better. Mr. Sorensen asked if there has been any trouble in the City with these kinds of things being available for purchase by minors. Council Minutes 3/27/79 -2- Chief Martin replied the only places he is aware the narcotic paraphernalia is being sold is primarily in record stores, and the trend has been to sell this type of paraphernalia in the music and record establishments. He feels the trend in the community is to try and suppress this type of paraphernalia being sold to juveniles. Mr. Daniel Bonnett, attorney on beha?.f of Middle ,Earth Records and Tapes, said he has done some research in this area, and it is his opinion the proposed Ordinance would be preempted by State law. He commented the State has provided legislation in this field, and he believes the Ordinance would also be unconstitutional because of that fact. He questioned whether the Ordinance would be denying the business people their due process of Law. Mr, Bonnett pointed out his client does sell paraphernalia items .in his business, but he does not sell them to minors. He suggested an ordi- nance, wherein a proprietor of these items cannot sell them to people under the age of 18, which he feels would accomplish the same purpose, i Mr, Michael Sweeney, 933 Walnut,Long Beach, representing Dealers of Euphoric Accessories, feels there is a problem of definition, and for the small store owner to have to obtain a permit and contractor, etc., to put up an additional wall is zero- ing in on a particular area of retailing, which he believes would be impossible to enforce. Mr. Gene Lappel, 1212 East Second Street, Long Beach, commented that the law has been overturned in Illinois, New York, Massachusetts, and Georgia, as well as a city in Oregon. He suggested the Council look further into what is happening throughout the Country before progressing further with the Ordinance. Mr. Sorensen advised that preemption is always an issue in this kind of case, and there is no precedent in California specifically on this. His office feels the Ordinance has been drafted as carefully as possible, keeping in mind the cases in other states. He said he cannot offer assurance the Ordinance would be upheld, but it has been drafted to the best of ability to accomplish what the Police Chief has indicated is a problem in the City. AYES: 5 Council Members: Jackman, Miller, Mackaig, Swearingen, Greene MISCELLANEOUS COUNCIL ACTIONS 1978-79 Rental Agreement with Downey Children' Mr. Neavill commented on the efforts made to follow the City Council's guide- lines in establishing the agreement, but he pointed out that he was contacted today by the attorney representing the Downey Children's Theatre regarding suggested modi- fications, most of which are minor. He has not had an opportunity to review the modifications with the City Attorney or staff, and he recommended this matter be held over. It was moved by Councilman Jackman, seconded by Councilman Mackaig, and passed by unanimous .vote to take the Agreement under submission to the Council Meeting of April 10, 1979. Proposed Agreement with the Downev Theatre Foundation to Operate and Maintain Mr. Sorensen advised he has not had an opportunity to review the Agreement. Councilman Jackman asked if the Downey Theatre Foundation, Inc., is now incorporated. Mr. Neavill replied no. Mr. John Terry, attorney working with Priscilla Dunnum, the counsel who volun- teered her time to the committee, stated the proposed Articles and Bi-Laws now before the Council are merely guidelines set forth by the committee that they are basically in agreement as to form and content of the corporate structure. He is presently in the process of drafting Articles and Bi-Laws to present to the City for approval as to form and content as soon as practicable, and he asked that any discussions, ques- tions, or consideration be postponed until that time, since there are no authorized representatives present to respond. He hopes within a month to have final Articles and Bi-Laws available to the Council for perusal. Councilman Jackman mentioned the Foundation proposes to'take -over the Theatre operation July 1st, which is only 90 days away, and he voiced concern this is "dragging its feet." Council Minutes 3/27/79 -3-- 29 Mr. Neavill expiaitLed a proposed organization entitled the Downey Association of Fine Arts, comprised of representatives of the Downey Civic Light Opera, Downey Symphonic Society, Downey Youth Band, Downey Chorale, Civic Chorus, and the Rose Float Association, presented to the Recreation & Community Services Commission a proposal for management of the Theatre. The Commission felt the Fine Arts Association should meet with the Civic Ballet of Southern California, who had also submitted a proposal,. He said after meeting with the principals involved, the details worked out are con- tained in the proposal submitted to the Council, this evening, which includes a pro- posed License Agreement for use of the Theatre, Articles of Incorporation, and Bi-Laws for the merged organizations operating under the corporate title of Downey Theatre Foundation. He has been subsequently advised that Mr. Terry is representing the three principals involved. Discussion followed. Mr. Dale Hardiman, 10348 Paramount Boulevard, of the Downey Fine Arts Associatio,__ said he and Mr. Bales of the Civic Ballet met with Mr. Thompson and Mr. Neavill and agreed in principal with most of the items contained in the documents. He dad point out there are articles in the Lease Agreement which are detrimental to their involve- ment in terms of liability; and possibly to the City as well. They are now making an extensive effort to raise funds. Councilman Jackman said one of the main criteria established that the Council would be willing to make an agreement with the Fine Arts Association is that they would operate the Theatre at no cost to the City. Yet, in the proposed Agreement, there are several items which will cost the City a considerable amount of money for which there will be no compensation. He then referred to the Agreement and raised the following questions, as well as requesting a report back from staff: How much will it cost the City to maintain the exterior of the Theatre? How will the City be reimbursed for money spent out of the Equipment Fund for - repair and replacement of City equipment in the Theatre? How will the City be reimbursed for maintenance of utility lines, exterior of all buildings, including roofs and all exterior repairs, as well as land- scaping, parking lot surfacing, etc." Will the Theatre Manager be a full-time manager? Why should the City pay rental for a building it owns and is permitting others' to use at no cost? Councilman Jackman feels the organization should pay the cost to maintain a fired insurance policy. He also questioned the need for the City to check the books of,the'-- organization when the City will not be receiving any money from them. Councilman Miller indicated that at no time has he ever considered the Theatre to operate on a totally self-sustaining basis. He requested staff bring back to the Council what the costs will be to the City. Councilman Mackaig stated it was his impression the Theatre would be used at no cost to the City, and that is what he would expect. Councilman Swearingen stated he would also like to know what the costs would be to the City. Mr. Neavill stated the Recreation & Community Services Commission will be reviewing the License Agreement at its meeting next week and would like to schedule a work session with the Council and principals involved to go over some of the details of the Agreement. He said at that time he will present to the Council answers to the questions raised this evening. The Council discussed scheduling the work session for Tuesday, April 3rd. Councilman Jackman indicated he will be out of town and unable to attend. With his consent, the Council set 7:30 p.m., April 3, 1979, in the Green Room of the Downey Theatre, for a work session with the Recreation & Community Services Commission. It was moved by Codficilman Jackman, seconded by Councilman Miller, and passed by the following vote to approve the Citywide Traffic Control Devices Project Agreement with California Traffic Services in the amount of $24,495, and authorize the Mayor to sign. Councilman Jackman stated he has met with the Traffic Engineer on several occa- sions, who explained the importance of this, and he hopes the agreement can be approved so that the inventory can begin. Mayor Greene declared a recess from 9:16 p.m, to 9:22 p.m. The meeting resumed with all Council Members present. Council Minutes 3/27/79 -4- h'r. Spindei ndicatcd that once the iuvent'ory has been computerized, it w�"tl_ 113% continually updated. AYES: 5 Council Members. Jackman, Miller, Mackaig, Swearingen, Greene It was moved by Councilman Jackman, seconded by Councilman Mackaig, and so ordered to set a hearing on Zone Change No. 140, Southwest corner of Alameda Street and Dcwney.Avenue, for 7:30 p.m., April 10, 1979, in the Council Chamber of the Downey City Hall. Zone Variance No, 54 9530 Brock Avenue Mr. Sorensen advised if the Council wishes to overrule the Planning Commission and grant the appeal to allow the Zone Variance, it should direct preparation of a resolution granting the variance either with or without the conditions recommended by the Commission. It was moved by Councilman Mackaig to authorize staff to prepare a resolution approving the Zone Variance with Condition No. 1. Discussion followed regarding the proposed conditions for future street lights and the agreement to future installation of sidewalks. Councilman Miller inquired if the garage is constructed without a fire wall and a fire occurred spreading to the next dwelling, would there be any liability on the part of the City, Mr. Sorensen replied it is his impression it probably would not, Mr. Stup stated the Building Code will allow building on the property line as long as a proper fire wall is built. The motion was seconded by Mayor Greene and passed by unanimous vote. It was moved by Councilman Jackman, seconded by Councilman Mackaig, and so ordered to set a hearing on Zone Change No. 142, Lakewood Boulevard and Gallatin Road, for 7030 p.m., April 10, 1979, in the Council Chamber of the Downey City Hall. CITY MANAGER'S REPORT Mr. Thompson stated he has submitted as requested a report on Permit Costs and Revenue on Fireworks Stands, which does not contain the actual cost but is estimated on averages. He said if it is the Council°s intent to bring the fee more in line with actual cost, he would suggest a fee of $150, which would cover the City°s costs for a number -of years to come. Councilman Jackman feels $100 would be more realistic because of the revenue received in Sales Tax. He then moved to direct staff to prepare an ordinance estab- lishing a $100 license fee for fireworks stands, which was seconded by Councilman Swearingen. (Motion and second later withdrawn.) Councilman Mackaig suggested that to decrease some of the costs possibly it would be less expensive for a Fireman to make the coordination and 'inspection of locations and stands rather than the Fire Marshal or Fire Inspector. -Captain Sumner said there is a problem with enforcement of the Health & Safety Code for violations that are found. The normal inspection could be performed by a Fireman, but he would have no authority to take legal action if necessary. Councilman Jackman inquired about the possibility of denying a permit the follow- ing year to those fireworks stands caught in violation. Mr. Sorensen said the ordinance be amended to provide for this, but he does not think it should be done without providing for a hearing. Captain Sumner indicated he does not foresee the need for as much staff time this year as there was last year when the program first started. The motion and second were withdrawn. It was then moved by Councilman Jackman, seconded by Mayor Greene, and passed by the following vote to authorize staff to prepare an ordinance setting a $125 license fee on fireworks stands. Mr. Sorensen indicated the ordinance will be prepared to provide for establish- ing the fee by resolution. Council Minutes 3/27/79 -5- 3'p� q nu.cilsa.n Mackaig c-aid the Coiric.i.1 previously agreed to make refunds if a new fee is established, The Council decided not to include at this time a provision for denying permits in the event of violations. AYES- 5 Council Members: Jackman, Miller, Mackaig, Swearingen, Greene Mr. Thompson mentioned the City Attorney has requested a Council decision with regard to defense of a case -on the City°s Charitable Solicitation Ordinance., He and the Police Chief recommend defense of the Ordinance because it is felt it is valued and has served the City well in past years, and it does provide valid protection for Downey's citizens. It was moved by Councilman Jackman, seconded by Councilman Swearingen, and passed by unanimous vote to direct the City Attorney to defend the City's Ordinance on Charitable Solicitations. Mr. Thompson then requested an executive session to discuss a personnel matter,. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS Councilman Jackman expressed concern regarding the DART Program and asked what is being done by staff to see that the prog,am continues. Mr. Spindel explained staff funding for the program was eliminated, although there still is some monitoring done by the City. The rubbish company does publish newspaper articles each week concerning the areas in which pickups will be made. He commented on the efforts that have been made to gain interest in the program and said it is possible there are some gran't funds available for advertising. Councilman Jackman inquired about the possibility of Council passing and enforc- ing an ordinance requiring people to separate their trash for recycling. Mr. Spindel replied the City of Los Angeles previously had such an ordinance, but said there is always a question of enforcement. Councilman Jackman feels some action should be taken on this in the future, par- ticularly because of the problem concerning landfills. 1, Mr. Sorensen advised he can see no problem with writing'an ordinance on this, _. nor does he see a problem with the legality; but, the practical aspects of enforcing it may present some problems. Councilman Jackman asked the Council to give some thought to this and then dis- cuss it at the next meeting. Councilman Jackman then requested a report on the total income received from Dog License Fees and what is being done to license all animals in the City. He feels it is important to obtain more revenue from this in order to defray the expense of the animal control. He also requested a report back on how the City could make a thorough canvass of the City to license all dogs. Councilman Jackman inquired regarding a letter from Little League concerning sponsorship of DJAA by the City. Mr. Thompson explained there has been no money directly allocated or appropriated for the DJAA this year. However, as a result of the fact that the schools have not been able to provide facilities in the DJAA program, he has been informed by Mr. Neavill there will be $1200 available to support this activity. Mr. Thompson com- mented that the DJAA is City administered, whereas the Little League is conducted as a private organization similar to the Pop Warner League, and the City has never funded private programs. Councilman Jackman feels the DJAA and Little League should receive the same final cial consideration. -.- Mayor Greene cited the difficulty of comparing the two activities because DJAA embodies many athletic activities, wherein the Little League is limited to only one activity. The City Manager will report back. Councilman Miller commented on a lawsuit against the City of Arcadia for certa fees and charges adopted to supplement lost revenue. He said Arcadia is requesting financial support in its defense, of which Downey s contribution would be $300. Council Minutes 3/27/79 -6- It was moved by Councilman Miller, seconded by Councilman Jackman, and passed by the following vote to approve the expenditure of $300 for the Arcadia/Gann litigation fund. Councilman Mackaig expressed his opposition. Discussion followed. AYES: 4 Council Members: Jackman, Miller, Swearingen, Greene NOES: 1 Council Members: Mackaig Councilman Mackaig indicated he received a notice of public hearing, which was mailed to an address where he has not resided for approximately five years. Mr. Goggin explained the list of names and addresses is prepared by the applicant in a zoning case, and the information is taken from the Assessor's roll. Councilman Mackaig said he has been contacted by banks in Downey expressing a desire to participate in the deposit of City funds. He asked the Council to support the local banks. Mr. Thompson stated for many years the City's money has always gone out to the highest interest rate bidder, and a treasury list is available for the Council's inspection. He said the City's investment program is where it will receive the best rate, and the various banks in the City are approached. Councilman Mackaig commented on a recent meeting of the Southeast Mayorssand Council, wherein a discussion took place concerning a recall election in South Gate. Councilman Mackaig then requested the Council to give consideration to includ- ing more of the non -controversial Council Agenda items under the Consent Calendar, which he said could shorten the length of the meetings. Mr. Thompson suggested adding to each item on the Consent Calendar a short pro- cedural requirement of how the item comes about and what the Council's next steps are in the procedure. Councilman Mackaig did not concur with the report on Brookshire Park, and said if it is the Council's desire, he would like to resolve the issue. Councilman Jackman remarked he would like to have an additional report on attend- ance at the Park at a time of the year when attendance would be up. Councilman Mackaig inquired about the cost of a voting machine for the Council Chamber. Mr. Thompson replied last time a study was made the cost was approximately $1800-$2000 complete with installation, but it would depend on what type the Council would want. Staff was requested to bring back a report. Councilman Mackaig commented on a request of the post office for additional park- ing on the back of the lot. It was explained a parking arrangement is available for the employees, but they have elected not to use it. Councilman Swearingen inquired about sidewalk improvements in the front of Country Butcher at Alameda and Paramount. Mr. Thompson will check into it. Mrs. Signe Van Hoeven, 8533 East Donovan Street, invited the Council and City staff to attend the official opening of the Senior Citizen Drop -in Center at Apollo Park Neighborhood Center at 10:00 a.m., April 7, 1979. She commented on the planned activities and said Congressman Grisham is sending his representative. At 10:32 p.m., Mayor Greene recessed the meeting to executive session to discuss a personnel matter. The meeting resumed at 11:10 p.m. with all Council Members present. It was moved by Councilman Jackman, seconded by Councilman Miller, and passed by the following vote to agree for a salary adjustment to be submitted by the City Manager with the 1979-80 Budget for the Data Processing Manager and the reorganization of the Data Processing function. AYES: 4 Council Members: Jackman, Miller, Swearingen, Greene ABSTAIN: 1 Council Member: Mackaig The meeting was then adjourned at 11:12 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., April 3, 1979, in the Green.
