A communication was received from S. Speckert, owner of
Parcels 10 and 11 in the area to be annexed, approving
'the proposed annexation.
Further, a report was received from the Associate Planning

from the annexation to pay for the additional extension of
sewer and water as requested by Johnson and Watson.
Ray Corcoran, 8041 San Gabriel Canyon Road (Happy Jack's
Fish Farm), addressed Council and clarified the matter
that sewers and water were being,3xtended to his property
upon annexation. It was assured him by the Mayor that
Council would waive the City's $3.00 per front foot hookup
fees. It was noted by the Mayor that the property owners
would be required to pay the County assessment for the
Sanitation District. Mr. Corcoran agreed to the latter as
a necessary charge.

A report was received from the City Hall Architectural
Study Committee.
Councilman Snyder, as Chairman of
'addressed Council. He reported th
three times: the first time to stu
and actions; the second tine to se
recommendation to Council; and the
and recommend architectural firms.
the Committee,
e Committee had met
dy Council's directions
t up guidelines for
third time to interview
The report included the following guidelines for the City
Hall Program:
1. The architectural motif for the project will be
in keeping with the present style -- Spanish -
Mediterranean.
2. The height limit of new construction will not
exceed the height of the auditorium wing.
3. The central core can be completely demolished;
however, materials of,interest in the existing
facade may be utilized where effective in the
newly designed building aesthetics.
4. The central core should contain a Council Chamber
but of a multi-purpose utilization, a Mayor's
Office and conference room, a foyer, and offices
for City Administrator, City Clerk, City Treasurer,
' and Finance Director with Accounting and operational
space for records, equipment, archives, etc., as
required. A basement can contain utilities and
storage facilities as necessary.
5. The Committee recommends that the extent of the
total budget should be between $300,000 and
$500,000, and that a bond election for this fund-
ing will not be considered.
6. The Committee also recommends the City Auditorium
be improved for use by the community by providing
the necessary seating, acoustics, heating and
ventilating, stage facilities, exits, restrooms,
etc., as can be considered within the funds; however,
these would be of a lesser priority.
7. The selection of the architect is the duty of the
City Council, and the Committee was convinced that
any of the four firms interviewed could effectively
provide the services; however, the greatest vote of
the Committee was given to recommending the use of
Ken Heil of West Covina, or Heitschmidt/Mounce of
Los Angeles.
Mrs. Camilla Williams. 1107 N. San Gabriel Avenue, a
member of the Committee, addressed Council in opposition to
the report. She stror..ly felt that the front facade of the
central building should be kept, while the building itself
could be demolished if necessary. It was her feeling that
it is the facade of the building which means Azusa in the
minds of the many people who drive through the City. She
felt that it is a beautiful building and, by that, is
historical. She urged the utilization of the facade in
the new building and opposed the term "may be utilized" in
the report as being too permissive. She further urged that

widely disparate in use or intensity of use, be in the estab. some
middle of the street, where the street could serve as district
additional buffer. An example would be commercial against boundaries
residential. However, where the adjacent zoning is
similar or relatively the same in intensity, the boundary
should be along rear property lines. An example would be
residential between R -la and R -lb. This would allow
homes of same value facing each other on the street.
Further, when zone changes are considered by the Planning
Commission, each case will be reviewed on its own merit
and conformance with the General Plan, and a final decision
made accordingly. The criteria summarized above will be
included in any such review.

The City Attorney reported the receipt of the intended
decision of the Court in the case of Chris Beck vs.
Police Chief Elkins, City of Azusa, et al., where the
Judge intends to rule in favor of Beck, declaring the
City's Ordinance prohibiting scrap metal yards as
unconstitutional in this specific case. He also reported
that the Planning Commission is presently in the process
of studying the preparation of an Ordinance which would
reinstate the use of scrap metal yards in specific types
of zoning and under specific conditions in the City's
Zoning Code. Because of this and because the Judge gave
no reasons for his intended decision, the perusal of the
Beck matter is still undecided.

After -discussion between Council and Captain Lara,
Parish Hall &
it appeared that the major problem was one of delay
other riots
in the courts. The original incidents happened as early
as July and are yet to be tried in the latter part of
November. A number of individuals arrested during the
incidents were not prosecuted by the Police Department,
but were counselled and released due to their minor
involvements. Regarding several others, the Probation
Department did not file a petition. The observation by
Captain Lara was that the court tends to try the person
upon the immediate merits of the charge and the person's
actions, rather than as part of a larger disturbance. The
perceptives, therefore, are different, with the court
looking at a single individual and his activities, from
those of the community looking at the total riot picture.
After further discussion, it was
