session at the above time and place.
Mayor Solem called the meeting to order.
Present at Roll Call: Councilmen: Rubio, Decker, Snyder,
CJwk, Solem
,lso Present: City Administrator Sandwick, Director of
Parks & Recreation Dangleis, Superintendent
of Light & Power Gerharz, City Clerk Klarr
Councilman Rubio expressed his concern with regard to a
hardship case. Daro Munoz, owner of the structure at
300 N. Azusa Avenue, is in the process of demolition
ursuant to Council mandate. He is not able to make the
350 deposit which is required for demolition. Inasmuch
as Mr. Munoz is a reputable resident of Azusa and that
the City has required this demolition, Councilman Rubio
requested that the deposit be waived, recognizing that
Mr. Munoz must purchase the necessary building permit
for demolition.
Moved by Councilman Rubio, seconded by Councilman Decker
and unanimously carried by roll call that the demolition
deposit of $350 be waived, due to the hardship on Mr.
Daro Munoz, for the structure at 300 N. Azusa Avenue.
The City Clerk presented the concept of a "Consent
Agenda" to be used during regular meetings of the City
Council. This portion of the Agenda would list all the
apparently non -controversial routine matters, and one
tion of Council would apply to all the matters under
is portion of the Agenda. There would be the possi-
lity of any item being removed for discussion should
a Councilman so desire.
This matter was discussed by Council at length but no
action was taken.
The City Clerk presented the matter of the Audi-
torium rental rate. He noted that the Auditorium had
been rented to "outside" users for $6.75 per hour since
1961. A recent accounting of the costs has shown that
this amount does not cover the expenses to the City.
He suggested that $12 per hour become the rental rate
effective 6/1/71 and that this would be more equitable.
Moved by Councilman Clark, seconded by Councilman Snyder
and unanimously carried by roll call to authorize the
increase of the Auditorium rental rate to $12 per hour,
effective 6/1/71.
A Resolution was presented, transferring $700,000 from
the Light Fund to the General Fund, and $130,000 from
the Water Fund to the General Fund.
uncilman Rubio offered the Resolution entitled:
RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AZUSA,
TRANSFERRING CERTAIN SUMS FROM THE LIGHT FUND AND THE

Moved by Councilman Rubio, seconded by Councilman Decker
and unanimously carried that further reading be waived.
