The proposed Agreement asked that the sewer and water main
be extended from its present terminus to the Johnson -Watson
properties at the north end of the proposed annexation area,
at such time as Johnson -Watson improved the property in the
value of not less than $50,000. Such extension would be .at
no cost to the property owners.
The Director of Public Works addressed Council and explained
that the City Resolution governing water services requires
any additional extension of water mains to be borne by
'property owners. He submitted a report showing the cost of
extension of sewer and water services estimated to be $24,000.
He noted the present budget included a sufficient sum to replace
the existing small water main with a larger water main. He
also noted that the property owners would have to pay the
Sanitation District fee for attaching to the sewer lines, should
they elect to attach to said lines. He further noted that
there was a City fee for connecting to the sewer lines, set
by Ordinance.
The City Attorney noted that any agreement which became
conditions of the annexation could over -ride the requirements
for such fees or payment of costs for extension of water main.
Mr. Watson again addressed Council and offered to remove the
three northern -most parcels from the Agreement to receive
water and sewer services. He also offered to increase the
improvement value from $50,000 to $100,000, necessary before
the services would be extended at no cost to the property
owners.
Council discussed the remuneration which the proposed annexa-
tion may or may not bring to offset such costs. The advisa-'
bility of setting a precedent was discussed.

Moved by Councilman Clark, seconded by Councilman Decker and
unanimously carried to request the Planning staff to prepare

value in tre area to be annexed and any possible developments

Golf Course owners have agreed to maintain this berm at

berm and noted it is broken only in the area owned by the
City of Glendora. It is their hope that the City of
Glendora will allow an easement to construct the remainder
of the berm and thereby complete the sound barrier. He
noted that the City,is not obligated in any manner it this
agreement. The reason the City is involved is because the
Flood Control District is the ultimate recipient of the
land presently to be excavated, and the City has an option
to receive this land should the Flood Control not wish to
accept it. Therefore, the Flood Control District is
concerned that the City be aware of all factors affecting
this property.

(opposed)
The City Clerk recommended the establishment of a fee of
$10 or $15, primarily for the purpose of separating out
those persons who were not seriously intending to seek
'public office when they filed their nominating papers.
He noted the time of election had been accelerated by one
month, according to recent State Legislation, and thereby
requires action by Council now to make this effective, if
it so deemed, by the opening of nominations in the first
week of December.
Councilman Clark opposed the concept as being another way
of getting money out of the people, as unneeded because
the City Clerk is paid to do this work anyway, and as a
restriction on the rights of any individual who would
wish to run for elective office.

A communication was received from Bob Hartunian, owner
of Western Disposal Co., with a proposal to supply the
Light & Water Department an enclosed container for storage
of scrap copper. The container would be locked for security
reasons and hold up to 10 tons of scrap copper. He offered
to supply this container as a means of reducing the theft
of City scrap copper. He further suggested he would pay
the City I" of the nationally posted price for scrap copper
'at the time of sale. He recommended that the City engage
this suggestion in a one-year trial period. It was noted
that this would relieve the City from the need to seek
quotations each time there was sufficient copper to sell.
The City Attorney felt there would be no objection,
inasmuch as the price would be based on a nationally
determined schedule.
Moved by Councilman Clark, seconded by Councilman Rubio
and unanimously carried to approve the proposal and

Councilman Clark drew Council's attention to the fact that,
in the recodification of the City Code and subsequent
discussions, the section prohibiting corsumption of
alcoholic beverages in public places and buildings was
omitted. This has allowed the open drinking of beer in
City parks, which he feels is not proper.
Councilman Rubio expressed concern with youngsters
drinking beer on the curb in front of the Police Depart-
ment and the Police claiming they had no law to control
this.
Pnl.ice Captain Lara affirmed the fact there is new no
law allowing them to cont^ol the consumption of alcohol
in public places. He noted there is presently no
violation until the persons involved become drunk or a
nuisance to other persons.

It was felt by some members of Council that a law should

beverages in public places, but which would allow the
City to hold champagne receptions or similar activities
in official capacities within public buildings.
