The City Clerk presented the Affidavit of Proof of Publication of notice of this hearing in the Azusa Herald and Pomotropic on October 21, 1970. A memo was received from the Planning Commission, recom- mending the addition of the definition of "condominium", its use in an R-2 zone and an R-3 zone after a public hearing in each case under a Conditional Use Permit, with the further recommendation, which pertains to park and recreation area, to revise the Municipal Code to read: "...the subdivider may pay or tender to the City, prior to approval of the final map and subject to such approval, a sum equivalent to $25 per each lot or dwelling unit, whichever is greater, contained in the subdivision...", which revision is being included at the request of the Park and Recreation Commission. The memo further stated that the Planning Commission adopted Resolution No. 873, establishing basic development standards for condominium developments.

I AZUSA AUDITORIUM AZUSA, CALIFORNIA MONDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1970 A report was submitted by the City Administrator as a result of his meeting with the representative of the Police and Fire Association and of the City Employees Association. The report read that under the Personnel Board's recom- mendation, it is possible for an employee to receive lightly less than 2-2% increase upon promotion, which is not in the spirit of the present ruling. For instance, a Police Officer on 5th Step of Range 119A, if he were promoted to Sergeant, which is in Range 123, would receive an increase of only 2.25%. Therefore, it would appear that the first sentence of paragraph 4 should read as follows: "when promoted, an employee is entitled to be paid minimum rate of the appropriate pay range or a min- imum of one pay step, or full range higher than his current pay range, whichever is higher; provided that such promotion shall give him a minimum increase of one full pay range." In the case of an employee acting temporarily in a higher classification, the employee representatives have indicated that they have no objection to'his receiving just one pay range or step, which is slightly less than 5%. It was recom- mended that Paragraph b be changed to read as follows, with the changed portion being underlined: "Any employee in any class, rank or position, acting temporarily in a higher classification, rank or posi- tion for the full working time of a period of more than thirty-one consecutive calendar days, shall, during the entire period in which such employee is acting in the higher classification, rank or position, receive.an appropriate salary that shall give him a minimum of one step or one full range_ increase." The City Administrator recommended that the matter be referred back to the Personnel Board for clarification and resubmittal to Council. Ray Quesada, president of the Azusa City Employees Associa- tion, addressed Council, stating they agreed with the recom- mendation of the City Administrator. After discussion, it was Moved by Councilman Clark, seconded by Councilman Rubio and unanimously carried to refer back to the Personnel Board for clarification as recommended.

Ortuno, the Building @ 723 N.Azusa Inspector submitted a copy of the notice, dated October (Ortuno) 21, 1970, which he sent informing the owners that Council will consider further proceedings in this case on 11/2/70. [7 1 1 AZUSA AUDITORIUM AZUSA, CALIFORNIA MONDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1970 Anthony M. Ortuno, 346 No. Azusa Avenue, addressed Council and reminded them he had stated at the outset that it would take more than 90 days to comply with the abatement order. He further stated he had been in contact with engineers and others, and hopes to have plans within two weeks to a month which would meet the necessary require- ments. He asked for an additional 90 -days extension of the abatement order. Councilman Snyder declared that inasmuch as he was the engineer who designed the front wall of the subject build- ing, he would abstain from discussion and voting on this matter. Moved by Councilman Clark, seconded by Councilman Decker to grant a 30 -day extension to Mr. Ortuno for submission of plans by an engineer to the Building Inspector. Motion carried by the following vote of Council: AYES: Councilmen: Rubio, Decker, Clark, Solem NOES: Councilmen: None ABSENT: Councilmen: None ABSTAIN: Councilmen: Snyder Mr. Ortuno also stated he had a communication from the Building Inspector regarding his property at 231 No. Azusa Avenue, outlying the necessary corrections which must be made to bring the building up to Code to meet the Variance granted by the Planning Commission, and on the same day as he received the letter from the Building In- spector, he also received a letter from the Fire Depart- ment inquiring as to why he had not completed items listed in the letter from the Building Department. Re: Substandard Structure at 733 No. Azusa Avenue, owned by Marsh, Fairfield, Suman, Inc., the Building Inspector read in full the report from the District Engineer, in which it was stated that it does not appear practical to rehabilitate each store unit in The Arcade Building separately, and that there are now two vacancies. Mr. A. L. Suman, 332 Sturtevant Drive, Sierra Madre, addressed Council and referred to Council Minutes of 10/19/70 in which Mr. Ihnen, with property at 116 l7. Foothill Boulevard, was granted an extension of 90 days for a number of reasons which he feels applies to his case as well. He stated that he has conferred with structural engineers who do not feel it would be feasible to rehabilitate just one store within the building. He is presently working on a proposed program to which he hoped the Council would agree, and therefore asked for a 90 -day extension of the abatement order. He pointed out that he cannot bring tho building up to Code and maintain the rent on the stores at a price range com- mensurate with the market. He indicated a possible program which he would propose at a later date, where- by the City would purchase the property at this site. Moved by Councilman Decker, seconded by Councilman Snyder and unanimously carried by roll call to grant a 30 -day extension, with the understanding that any further extensions not be granted unless something specific is presented.

The City Attorney further stated that Mr. Taylor would meet with the City Administrator and the City Attorney on 11/12/70. In response to the concern expressed by Council at its 10/19/70 meeting, the City Attorney had studied the matter of trains blocking traffic on City streets due to switching maneuvers. He pointed out that the Azusa Mun- icipal Code makes it illegal to block a street for more than a 20 -minute limit, and the League of California Cities suggests a 10 -minute limit, and after consultation with the City Administrator, he, himself, suggests a 5 - minute limit. The City Attorney further expressed a concern about activation of signal devices at intersections which block the traffic while trains are not crossing the intersection. He oresented a proposed Ordinance amending the Municipal Code.re: limit .for trains blocking traffic and also make it illegal for a signalling device to block traffic unless there is a train approaching, or some other factor makes the intersection unsafe. Councilman Decker offered for introductory first read- ing the Ordinance entitled: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA AMENDING SECTION 3200.48 OF, AND ADDING SECTION 3200.48a TO, THE AZUSA MUNICIPAL CODE, RELATING TO THE BLOCKING OF VEHICULAR TRAFFIC BY RAILWAY TRAINS.

It was the understanding on the part of the Personnel Board members that in lieu of the written test, the interviewing board would consist of the Board members plus three registered engineers from private industry and municipalities, which conditions were not fully met and, therefore, the Board feels the list is invalid for certification. It was the opinion of the City Attorney that the oral examination was held and that, unless there was an error in the manner in which the examination was conducted, the absence of an expected member of the orals board was not sufficient reason to prevent certification of the list. Moved by Councilman Decker, seconded by Councilman Snyder and unanimously carried to refer this matter back to the Personnel Board for clarification, with an explanatory letter from the City Attorney. A memo was received from the Acting City Engineer, stating that the County of Los Angeles has initiated proceedings for sanitary sewers in Enid Avenue and in other streets in the county area adjacent to the City (County Sewer Improvement No. 2511, Enid Avenue Assess- ment District). A portion of the City, entirely owned by the Azusa Unified School District (Valleydale School), is included within said Assessment District, and the school district has indicated to the County Engineer that it is interested in being included in the Assess- ment District. In order that the County may adopt a Resolution of Intention, it is necessary that the City grant juris- diction to the County over the proceedings for the improvement. It was the recommendation of the Acting City Engineer that Council adopt a Resolution granting such consent and jurisdiction to the County. Councilman Decker offered the Resolution entitled: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA GRANTING CONSENT AND JURISDICTION TO THE COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES IN THE MATTER OF COUNTY IMPROVEMENT NO. 2511, ENID AVENUE AND OTHER RIGHTS OF WAY.
