There being no additions or corrections, the Minutes of the Min appvd
Special meeting of April 30, 1988, and the regular meeting
of May 2, 1988, were approved as written.
Agency staff has received at least two requests to remove
the barricades at the eastern terminus of Eighth Street
north of the Azusa Square Shopping Center. Removal of the
barricades would provide access to the bowling alley and the
few remaining businesses in the center. City and Agency
staff believe the removal of the barricades will have
limited impact upon the businesses and will create
potentially hazardous conditions. Alternatively, Agency
staff has offered to construct a sign on Foothill Blvd. to
direct traffic to the few remaining businesses.
Moved by Director Avila, seconded by Director Latta and
unanimously carried by roll call to deny the request to
remove the barricades and authorize staff to install a sign
directing business from Foothill Blvd. to the open
businesses and further that all costs be borne by the
property owner and that appropriate indemnification and
insurance be provided.
Director Naranjo entered the meeting at 8:00 P.M.
