ORDINANCES
Community Development Director Cutts presented the staff report as set
forth in Agenda Memo dated April 12, 1988, entitled "Code Amendment Section 9162
of the Downey Municipal Code as it Pertains to Design Review."
Mr. Robert Verderber, Planning Commissioner, 12828 Verdura Ave., felt the
Ordinance as presented on March 22, 1988, was good with the exception of the
requirement that the Board consist of one licensed landscape architect, or one
licensed landscape contractor, or one person qualified by experience. He said
this Board reviews the work of design professionals and they should all have the
same qualifications. Mr. Verderber recommended going back to the Planning
Commission recommendation and have one licensed landscape architect, or, if the
Council wished, one licensed landscape architect or one with equivalent
education and experience.
Council discussed: 1) that qualified Landscape Architects may not be
licensed; 2) what qualified by experience means; 3) the number of Landscape
Architects in the State; 4) whether the City currently has a licensed Landscape
Contractor; 5) concern regarding the number of referrals to the Design Review
Board as opposed to staff handling some areas; 6) that experience in the field
may be a better critria than a license; and 7) an overall discussion (and
general agreement) on the need for professionals on this Board.
Mr. Joel Lubin, 7820 Allengrove St., agreed that the City should have
professionals on this Board and that we have excellent lay people on other
Boards and Commissions. Mr. Lubin thought he could get a listing of Licensed
Landscape Architects.
It was moved by Council Member Barb and seconded by Mayor Boggs, and to
amend the Ordinance, Section 1, number 2, to read "One Licensed Landscape
Architect, or if not available, one additional Licensed Architect."
Council Member Barb withdrew the motion with the consent of the second.
It was moved by Council Member Barb, seconded by Council Member Cormack,
and carried 3-2 (Council Members Santangelo and Boggs voting no) to amend the
Ordinance, Section 1, number 2, to read "One Licensed Landscape Architect."

project, he would be voting against approval of this item due to the issues of

is also used on the Firestone Bouelvard medians, because of the low maintenance
and its durability.

C506509, titled: Downey CARES/Paul Sarvis vs. City of

Council Minutes 4/12/88 -6-
6-t
Council Member Paul continued with reference to the public paying
for both the prosecution and defense in Council Member Santangelo's
case; the reasons that the attorney fees are excessive; and the
letter of Agreement signed in August, 1986 relative to these fees
which required progressive invoices and did not provide for
interest. He urged withholding payment of the bill, thereby
allowing the City the opportunity for arbitration. Estimated cost
for this arbitration would be $3,500 if it went to a lawsuit
situation.
Council clarified with City Attorney Thorson that the bill could
be: 1) Paid; 2) Arbitrated by Petition of the Council; or 3) Not
paid resulting in a lawsuit (initiated by Mr. Leo Newton) with
further opportunity for arbitration.
It was moved by Council Member Cormack, seconded by Mayor Boggs
(after Council member Paul withdrew his second) and failed 2-2-1
(Council Members Cormack and Mayor Boggs voting yes; Council
Members Barb and Paul voting no; and Council Member Santangelo
abstaining) to initiate a petition to arbitrate prior to payment.
Council Member Santangelo, on the advice of the City Attorney, left
his seat and spoke from the podium as a private citizen, residing
at 8434 Lexington Rd., supporting payment of the invoice in that
this was not a "boiler plate" trial and there was no case law to
follow. Council Member Santangelo continued with statements
clarifying his vote; that the State law is unclear and inaccurate;
that he would pay for future legal costs; and a challenge that some
Council Members had not come to his defense.
Mr. Jim Derry, 7845 4th St., spoke in favor of payment of the
invoice to Mr. Leo Newton.
Mr. Edward Hare, 9350 Dinsdale St., spoke in support of payment but
also supported the "prudence" of questioning the invoice.
Mr. Richard Lambros, 9715 Richeon Ave., urged the shield of
protection not be taken from those persons volunteering their time
to the City and further challenged the City attorney's
responsibility to advise.
Council Member Barb related his reasons for initially voting to pay
the legal fees with the stipulation for progressive billings that
were requested but not received, and stated concern regarding funds
already spent in both lawsuits. Clarification was given regarding
his previously owned residential property owned just north of the
Project Area but not within the area.
Council Member Santangelo returned to the podium stating that the
point he meant to make regarding Mr. Barb's property was that the
State law is inconsistent and unclear and that many people in the
City would benefit by the City improving and redeveloping.
It was moved by Council Member Paul, seconded by Council Member
Barb, and failed 2-2-1 (Council Members Barb and Paul voting yes;
Council Members Cormack and Boggs voting no; and Council Member
Santangelo abstaining) that Invoice No. 039006 in the amount of
$64,220.50, to Attorney Leo Newton, not be paid.
The City Attorney clarified that the City Charter provides that
there shall be three affirmative votes for payment of monies.
Mayor Boggs indicated that she would like the fees arbitrated and
stated her support of Council Member Santangelo in this legal
matter which resulted from a vote on a City/Redevelopment issue.
All Council Members indicated during discussion of this matter that
they hope for Council Member Santangelo's vindication in this
lawsuit.
Council Minutes 4/12/88 -7-
It was moved by Council Member Cormack, seconded by Mayor Boggs,
and failed 2-2-1 (Council Members Cormack and Boggs voting yes;

$64,220.50 after sending to arbitration.
