HEARINGS
Mayor Boggs opened the Public Hearing on Permissive Conditional Use Permit
187-1, 7749 Florence Avenue (Applicant: Assistance League), which was continued
from the regular meeting of July 28, 1987.
City Clerk Young affirmed the Proof of Publication.
Director of Community Development Cutts summarized the staff report dated
August 25, 1987 and narrated a short slide presentation.
City Clerk Young stated there were no written protests or objections filed.
Mayor Boggs asked that the applicant come forward and present their case.
Mr. Elwayne Smith, Attorney for the applicant, 8130 Florence Ave., asked
that the 40-50 people in the audience in support of this use stand, and
continued explaining that the Assistance League is a philanthropic and
charitable organization which has been in Downey for many years. The request is
to use the property as a League House for meetings and related activities to
support their work in the community. He urged approval of this use as
recommended by the Planning Commission. However, Mr. Smith asked that Condition
#5, pertaining to the Dinsdale gate, be changed so that it is not kept only as
an emergency gate, but permit the League to have this gate open during
activities, meetings, programs, etc., and keep the gate closed at all other
times, restricting access into the property and egress from the property. He
related this could be done on a trial basis, and Council could review this later
and determine if there are any problems within the community.
Mayor Boggs asked for those in the audience who wished to speak in favor of
Permissive Conditional Use #87-1.
Council Minutes 8/25/87 -1-
S31I
Mr. Donald Fisher, 7724 Dinsdale St., indicated he was in favor of this
request as approved by the Planning Commission and with no change to Condition
#5 relative to vehicular entrance on Dinsdale Street (Mr. Fisher had previously
testified against).
Mayor Boggs called for those in the audience who wished to speak in
opposition to Permissive Conditional Use Permit #87-1.
Mrs. Anne Stalker, 9947 Rives Ave., felt property values would go down with
a "party house" next door and felt Condition #5 should prevail.
Mr. Charles Ziegler, 9944 Rives Ave., questioned enforcement of Condition
#5 and complained of poor landscape maintenance. He also inquired if the
meetings and evening activities to be held at the location were during the week
or weekends.
Mayor Boggs asked the applicant to rebut dt this time.
Mr. Elwayne Smith, 8130 Florence Ave., stated that this was not a
commercial use of the property. He further related that all meetings are during
the week, but occasional social activities might occur on the weekends. Mr.
Smith stated that a gardener comes to maintain the grounds every Friday. He
said this house is a cultural asset to the community.
There being no further testimony, it was moved by Council Member
Santangelo, seconded by Council Member Cormack, and so ordered the Public
Hearing be closed.
Council discussed driveway and parking alternatives, and staff related a
meeting this next week regarding possible FAU funds to assist with traffic
signal costs. Council requested maps in future reports.
It was moved by Council Member Cormack, seconded by Council Member
Santangelo, and unanimously carried to approve Permissive Conditional Use Permit
#87-1 in concept as recommended by the Planning Commission and that the
Resolution be presented at the next regular meeting of September 8, 1987, after
consideration of FAU funding.
The meeting recessed at 8:30 p.m. and reconvened at 8:37 p.m. with all five

Participation Agreement with Iowa Street Professional Building Building for
property located at 8318-26 Iowa Street.

Community Development Director Cutts summarized the staff report indicating

Council Minutes 8/25/87 -2-
i3i'L
story professional building at 8318, 8320 and 8326 Iowa Street, which is zoned
HM, Hospital/Medical. The proposal is to construct a 4-story, 13,000 square
foot building on a land area of 23,250 square feet. He further indicated that
the proposal is to purchase a third remaining parcel of property that is 8,250
square feet of land area. Two of the parcels have been purchased by the
applicant, Iowa Street Professional Building (a limited partnership). The
developer who owns the two pieces of property has an opportunity to purchase the
property for a price of $217,000. The arrangement would be,,as it is contained
in the OPA, that the City would purchase the property with the owner putting up
the money. We would go through a concurrent escrow in that immediately upon
clearance of escrow by the Agency the property would be turned over to the
developer through the escrow process.
Mr. Cutts also presented a slide presentation showing aerial photographs of
the property and the surrounding areas. He further referenced renderings that
were given to Council/Commission before the meeting.
City Clerk/Secretary Young stated there were no written protests or
objections filed.
Council/Commission Member Santangelo asked that the record show the
participants in the limited partnership. Dr. Patrick McCaffery responded that
the partnership includes he and his wife, Dr. Theodore Okie, and Dr. David
Berger.
The applicant, Dr. McCaffery, stated efforts to propose a project which
falls within the scope and direction of the Redevelopment Agency. He stated the
proposed tenants will all be owners of the building. He further added there is
the opportunity for an additional practice, since they are only 82% pre -
leased. Dr. McCaffery urged approval by Council/Commission.
Mayor/Chairman Boggs asked for those in the audience who wished to speak in
favor of or in opposition of this Owner Participation Agreement. There were
none.
It was moved by Council/Commission Member Paul, seconded by
Council/Commission Member Santangelo, and unanimously carried that the Public
Hearing be closed.
At this time, Mayor/Chairman Boggs asked for Council/Commission Member
discussion:
Council/Commission Member Barb:
1. Requested total valuation and present valuation to give tax increment
expected;
2. Referenced wording on Page 4, Section 1, regarding method of payment of
property taxes;
3. Asked for summary recap giving pertinent information of the project.
4. Clarified that this property was part of the 1978 Redevelopment
Project, and now almost 1988, happy to be part of this project and see it go
forward.
Council/Commission Member Santangelo:
1. Questioned the cost of the other lots, which were $130,000 and $91,500,
and the $217,000 purchase price of this lot.
2. Requested that escrow be contingent upon 1) developer's funds to be in
concurrent escrow; and 2) the signed deed by seller be in concurrent escrow;
3. Clarified that with regard to property taxes, the Agency's obligation
would be limited to $11,000;
4. Asked for legal opinion regarding restrictions against developer
assigning or transferring his property (would like assigns only with permission
of the Agency);
Council Minutes 8/25/87 -3-
83i3
5. Requested review of Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions;
6. Clarified that the Resolution provides that the Developer will adhere
to the Disposition and Development Agreement.
Council/Commission Member Paul:
1. Clarified Page 9, Paragraph I 209, relative to the acquisition price
and not the purchase price to be used as the valuation for the purposes of
determining property taxes payable by the Participant.
Dr. McCaffery indicated that was to prevent him/Developer from coming back
and saying he would only pay property taxes on the discounted price.
Mayor/Chairman Boggs:
1. Clarified actual price of the other two lots - $130,000 and $91,500.
Dr. McCaffery said this project had its inception a year and a half ago.
They did not anticipate the need for a third parcel, and in addressing the
parking needs and exploring all the options and possibilities they realized the
only solution would be the acquisition of a third parcel. He further said the
owner of the third parcel fully realized the intents of their developments, so
they had to pay his price.
2. Inquired if the property owners on the other side had been approached.
Or. McCaffery responded that the property, historically, was involved with
one of the longest escrows that he knew could happen and they were not willing
to discuss any sale.
3. Clarified that the Developer will do the public improvements.
Council/Commission indicated as a whole that they are in favor of this
approach to the redevelopment process for Downey, but Council/Commission Member
Santangelo stated he feels the property could be developed without Agency
participation.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS
Safety Glass Film for Civic Center Windows
Director of Public Works Ralph submitted a report dated August 25, 1987,
entitled "Application of Safety Film to Civic Center Glass" with staff
recommendation that the City Council appropriate a $57,320.20 transfer from the
General Fund to the Capital Project Fund to finance the application of Armorcoat
Safety Film to approximately 23,000 square feet of Civic Center glass. He also
made two corrections to the report as follows: 1) Section entitled Cost- last
sentence, should read "$15,000 per year is anticipated"; and 2) in Section
entitled Recommendation - should read "23,000 square feet". Mr. Ralph
emphasized in the event of a severe disaster, specifically an earthquake, there
is a very high likelihood that most of the windows, if not all, would be broken
and the building would be rendered essentially useless.
Council discussed the safety factors, especially related to the saving of
lives, length of 1 i fe of coating, cost per square foot, and calculated risk of
not providing the protection.
Council Member Barb felt this should have been included in the City Hall
structure when it was first built; mentioned it only lasts a few years; and
scratches in time. He then asked Mr. Ralph to clarify what happens to glass
with this coating on it. Mr. Ralph advised that from the demonstrations seen,
the glass breaks but is held in place. Council Member Barb also related that
this was not the norm in development of buildings today and opposes it because
it is not required in all office buildings.
Council Member Cormack commented that he once was opposed to filming the
glass. He stated this was before the "Earthquake Preparedness Program" and
demonstrations have shown him the extreme hazards of shattering and flying
glass.
Mayor Boggs thanked Mr. Ralph for the Coalinga earthquake information and
read a section of the article that described how the glass exploded and broke
into large dagger -like pieces and traveled at an estimated speed between 60 and
100 miles per hour. Mayor Boggs also agreed with Council Member Barb that it is
unfortunate that this was not dealt with when the building was constructed, and
that perhaps the building code should be looked into for future earthquake
preparedness steps regarding other buildings in the City.
It was moved by Council Member Cormack, seconded by Council Member Paul,
and carried 4-1 (Council Member Barb voting no) to approve the foregoing staff
recommendation.
