ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
1. MALASPINA DEVELOPMENT, TRACT 9184
(85) Bill Gardner, 30231 Silver Spur Road, whose property abuts
(46) the Malaspina development, cited his concerns with the extent
and type of grading, location of building pads, disruption of
terrain and the pond area and ridgeline construction.
Mr. Gardner requested an investigation of whether the work
that has been done is within City regulations. Mayor Friess
replied that reports from staff indicated that the work was
in accordance with the approved plans and existing grading
ordinances. Councilman Buchheim provided background information
on the construction and stability of the pond area. Councilman
Thorpe suggested that geologic studies should have been made
and that a sensitiveness should be developed to notifying the
public whenever changes occur in original development plans.
Mr. Thorpe also suggested that a freeze be placed on the
planning process for any development approaching a ridgeline
so that the entire matter may be reviewed and ridgeline
designations re-evaluated. Councilman Hausdorfer noted that
improved definitions are needed for allowable uses on ridge -
lines. Mayor Friess suggested that further discussion be
deferred until the November 8th joint meeting with the Planning
Commission with careful consideration given to the impacts of
implementing a major study area.
2. PROPOSED CRITERIA FOR HILLSIDE DEVELOPMENT
AND AMENDMENTS TO LAND USE MANAGEMENT CODE
(55) Michael Berns, Chairman of the Planning Commission, presented
copies of an action plan for development of an ordinance that
would define development criteria and standards for sensitive
hillside areas within the City. The subjects include designation
of sensitive areas, encroachment on designated and undesignated
but visible ridgelines, grading restrictions, architectural
and design standards, and distance between structures and
density. Dr. Berns advised that the study areas would be
divided among commissioners based on individual expertise
in order to alleviate staff time, and requested Council
support of the process. There was a consensus of Council
to support the evaluation process with a preliminary report
to be submitted by the Commission at the joint meeting of
November 8th. If necessary, additional joint meetings will
be scheduled and further action considered.

REPORT ON
DISTRICT 78-3

This item was scheduled on the Agenda for consideration of
the second reading of the Ordinance approving Rezone 78-1
-6- 10/18/78

by Council action of October 4th and at the request of the
applicant. Final approval of the Rezone requires establish-
ment of an assessment district for the construction of
public improvements.
Written Communications:
(1) Report dated October 18, 1978, from the Director of
Community Planning and Development setting forth
various alternative actions for Council consideration.
Mr. William T. Hussey, representing St. Margaret's Episcopal
Church Building Committee, addressed the Council regarding
the working of Option No. 2 requiring all participants to
enter into an agreement, and Council concurred that the
wording should be amended.
Acceptable Criteria for Final Ap
It was moved by Councilman Thorp
Buchheim and unanimously carried
and Option 3 would be acceptable
second reading of the Ordinance
follows:
of Rezone 78-1:
that Option 2, as amended,
criteria for scheduling
approving Rezone 78-1, as
"2. Agreement to Waive Opposition - This option would
require the owners representing 51% of the Assessed
Value to enter into a recorded agreement to waive
opposition to the formation of the Assessment District.
The deposit of $150,000 to cover the engineering
design work would be required prior to second
reading.
113. Agreement to Waive Opposition (Ownership Consolidation)
This option is similar to paragraph No. 2 preceding in
that it requires an agreement to waive opposition to
formation of the Assessment District. The difference
between the options is the procedures used for entering
into the Waiver Agreement. In order to consolidate the
multiple ownerships into one, flexibility must be
provided due to the complexities of multiple escrows.
In order to provide flexibility while maintaining
City policy, the following items would be required
prior to second reading of the Ordinance:
(a) Deposit with the City $150,000, for completion
of engineering design work for public
improvements.
(b) Submission of legal documentation that the
applicant would become a majority property owner.

"1. Delete Section 8 and 7 from the public improvement and
housing rehabilitation contracts respectively and
substitute the following:
'The parties recognize that the funds being
made available under this contract shall not
be used for the provisions of cost of living
wage and salary increases as per Section
16280 of the California Government Code. It
is agreed that all funds provided to the
City shall be used exclusively for rehabilitation
loans and contractual capital improvement
projects. It is further agreed that no
funds shall be used for the administration of
this agreement. All City administrative
costs associated with this contract shall be
borne by the City.'
112. Public Improvements Contract - revise Section 4a and
4b to Ninety -One Thousand Dollars ($91,000). This
will include public improvement funds contained in
years 1-3 and portions of 4th year.
"3. Rehabilitation Contract - revise contract to read that
City will implement and administer the Housing
Rehabilitation program of $25,000.
"The implementation of these changes and subsequent issuance
of necessary contracts and agreements for the subject projects
can be accomplished by December 31, 1978. This would result
in a total drawdown of approximately $116,672 out of $151,672
or 76.9%."
Exhibits were on display, and Mr. Merrell advised that the
projects proposed for implementation by the end of the year
include paved access to the "Little Hollywood" area and

includes qualified design personnel for the project, but
due to the tight time constraints involved, authorization
for compensated overtime is requested.

Hausdorfer to authorize the Mayor to execute the revised
contracts and to designate Mayor Friess as the Council
representative to attend the meeting of the Board of

8319. Mr. Merrell advised that the $10,000 cash deposit will
be retained for a minimum period of 90 days after the satis-
factory installation of the landscaping and recommended that
the developer complete the project as required. Councilman

advised that a reasonable time for the landscaping would
coincide with the rooting of the trees; the developer would
continue to be liable for slope failures caused by the
original work, but not for any failures caused by maintenance.
Jim Fischer, 33601 Via de Auga, President of the Meredith
Canyon Community Association, addressed the Council to
encourage continued City inspection of the corrective work.
