seconded the motion.
79-627
City Hal.l~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5~ 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
Before a vote was taken, Councilman Roth noted when the present operator wanted
to get out of his contract, they became involved in a discussion as to the value
of the existing contract to sell to a new operator. He felt the value of selling
that contract should not enter into the picture. He was supportive of the
recommendation, but was concerned that if a five-year contract were granted, in
six months the new concessionaires would try to sell it at a higher price. Safe-
guards should be placed in the contracts so that it had no value over and above
what they were paying for it. He also wanted to be certain if the two gentle-
ment wanted to transfer the contract, it would still take Council approval to
do so and also the Council should have the right to determine the value of the
contract instead of the concessionaires. He recommended that the minutes of the
meeting where the contract was previously discussed be provided.
City Attorney William Hopkins stated they would word the agreement so that
provisions as outlined by Councilman Roth would be covered.
A vote was the taken on the foregoing motion. MOTION CARRIED.
173: BUS SHELTERS - ACCEPTANCE OF PROPOSAL: City Manager Talley briefed the
Council on memorandum dated May 30, 1979 from the City Engineer recommending
that the Council accept the proposal of Convenience and Safety Corporation of
Los Angeles for the installation of bus shelters in the City with a return of
revenue to the City of $64.04 per month on 1 to 75 shelters, and $80.05 per
month on 76 or more shelter units.
Mr. Jean Claude LeRoyer, President of American Bus Shelter Company of Santa Ama,
explained that when the City sent them the bus shelter bidding information, it
was their impression that the bid was for a quantity of 20 to 25 shelters and
in no instance did the bid indicate 1 to 75 and 76 and above. As well, a
company usually gave $40 per shelter commission or a 10% commission, whichever
was the greatest. They raised their commission for Anaheim to $50 or 14.5%
of the net advertising revenue. He questioned how Convenience and Safety
could offer what they were offering, and he presumed the only way they could
make a return on the shelters would be to take on the maintenance or displaying
in every shelter alcohol or cigarettes. They (American Bus Shelter) did not
display cigarettes and alcohol, as their advertisers were mostly local businesses.
They knew the market and what advertisers would pay for'it and they did not
expect advertisers to pay over a certain amount of money. They wanted to build
shelters in Anaheim and wanted a chance to do so, so they could show what they
could do for the City and the type of service they could render. They had 14
shelters installed in Orange County and 26 in Los Angeles County. They started
constructing shelters in their warehouse in Santa Ana for the past two months
and had been working with two counties for the past 16 months. At present,
they had 13 contracts with 13 cities and they were starting construction. The
longest shelter had been in existence for one year.
Mr. LeRoyer then confirmed for Councilman Roth and Councilwoman Kaywood that
their bid was predicated on building 1 to 25 shelters and if they had an
opportunity to bid up to 75, the amount would probably have been $65 in revenue
on each shelter, but they would not have gone above $65 in any case. He then
clarified further questions posed by Councilman Bay who also questioned the
legal process of having a low bidder come in and change his bid in the middle
of a hearing, since initially it was a sealed bid process.
79-628
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5~ 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
City Manager William Talley then read the instructions given the bidders in
the bidding information. The bid from Convenience and Safety (C&S) merely
stated for the first 75 installed, they were going to give the City 16.1% or
$64 and if beyond that amount, they would get $80.
City Manager Talley then answered a line of questioning posed by Councilman
Overholt for purposes of clarification at the conclusion of which, Councilman
Overholt asked if they were not happy with the service of that particular
bidder at the end of the six-month period, could they switch to another shelter
company, or was the City bound to continue with that one company.
Mr. Talley answered the Council could direct the Attorney to put that in the
agreement, and subsequently staff would recommend that they consider the second
and only other bidder.
Councilwoman Kaywood than asked if the existing shelters would then have to be
removed or if they would become the property of the City.
Mr. Art Daw, Civil Engineer, explained that to his recollection, if the perfor-
mance was not satisfactory, C&S could be required to remove their bus shelters
and leave at no expense to the City.
Councilwoman Kaywood answered that her concern for two years now was the need
for bus shelters not only for senior citizens, but also for every rider. If
the shelters were removed, they would be right back where they started. She
wanted to know if something could be included wherein the shelters would remain
the City's property with another contractor to take over the maintenance.
Mr. Daw explained that at the time the bids were mailed, the intended agreement
was included so that the bidders could observe what would be expected at the
time their proposals were accepted. He then referred to and read, Item 15,
Removal of Shelter, and Item 16, Termination and Cancellation of the Bid
Package. He concluded if the City Council wished to take over the bus shelters,
there could be negotiations whereby the City could acquire those shelters.
Councilman Overholt stated the way he interpreted the specifications and the
proposed agreement, if the licensee complied in all respects with the provisions
of the agreement during the first six months and the City chose to extend
the number of shelters beyond 25, the licensee would have the exclusive right
to do that. Thus, they were not just going into a pilot program, but a
permanent relationship. He also interpreted the right of termination as being
based upon their non-compliance with the terms of the agreement. There was
not an absolute right to terminate, but there had to be Just cause to do so.
Mr. Daw concurred.
Councilman Overholt reitereated the point he was trying to make was that even
though they might not be happy with the particular shelter program, it did
not mean the City could terminate it. They would be stuck with it if there
was compliance with a certain standard performance.
79-629
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5, 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Hopkins stated they probably would have some latitude to make changes in
finalizing the agreement, but as indicated, they would be bound by the terms
of the specifications.
Councilman Overholt noted if they had proceeded initially with what appeared to
be the top bidder at the time, they would have entered into a contract with a
bus shelter contractor who was not even bidding on the project. He felt that
by having the City design the shelter and having it open to bid, that they had
a much better chance of getting a product for the citizens of Anaheim that was
going to be usable and practical, installed by a company that would keep it
up. The reason he was interested in the terms of the agreement was to be
certain that the low bidder was going to be around for years to come, maintain
the shelters, and carry on the program.
Mr. Bruce Williams, Convenience and Safety, then answered questions posed by
Councilwoman Kaywood for purposes of clarification relative to exactly where
C&S was headquartered and also how many bus shelters their company had built
that were in existence.
Mr. Williams then explained for Mayor Seymour why he felt only two bidders
responded when the last time the matter was before the Council, the many bidders
present indicated they intended to bid on a bus shelter program for Anaheim. He
concluded by stating that he hoped they could leave the meeting today with a
resolution to proceed with the bus shelter program and to have their product
on the streets starting Labor Day, and in force, so that the people could react,
and the congratulations could come back to the Council on the good decision they
had made. They were dedicated to doing a good job for the City and would back
that up with a performance bond as requested.
Mayor Seymour then asked Mr. John Anderson, Associate Planner, where they now
stood in comparison to where they were prior to the Council asking that staff
design the shelter and putting it out to bid.
Mr. Anderson first spoke to the matter of design and explained the amenity
package that would be included in the shelter. Thus, from the design standpoint,
he felt that physically the shelter was a more complete package than it was
prior to the direction to staff to design the package. As well, the bidding
process screened out some companies that may not have been as effective in
responding as others. He also explained for Councilwoman Kaywood some of the
time constraints that would be involved even if the Council took action in
accepting the proposal today. Basically there were two, one being the admin-
istrative details and the other the ability of the company the Council .
chose to physically produce the product. A Critical item would be in the
ability of the successful bidder to line up sites for the shelters and have
them approved by the OCTD and the City's Traffic Engineer, after which he
presumed they would be in place within three or four weeks of that decision.
He then clarified some points relative to site locations.
Mr. Herb Eggett, 904 South Bruce Street, was concerned that the Council w~s putting
more emphasis on the dollar sign, thereby further delaying the installation of
bus shelters in the City. He was not surprised that some of the contractors
had dropped out of the bidding, considering the time lapse that had been involved.
79-630
City Hall~. Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5~ .1979~ 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Eggett then reported that on his way to the meeting, he saw a bus bench on
Lincoln Avenue where the back had been ripped off by vandals. He remembered
the promises they received from Bench Ad that they would clean the benches
once or twice a week and keep them in good repair. The point was that if up
to 75 shelters were going to be installed, that presented a tremendous main-
tenance problem and that there would be a certain amount of vandalism. Therefore,
the maintenance aspect should be looked at as an important item in the contract.
He urged the Council to make the people who were going to be using the shelters
the number one priority and to get them built and quit worrying about the
dollar.
Councilman Overholt noted that Mr. Williams mentioned they had a contract with
the City of Santa Ana to install shelters, and he asked if that was an exclusive
contract.
Mr. Williams stated it was a joint contract awarded to three different companies
on the anticipation that perhaps one of those companies would back out of the
program. One was Mr. LeRoyer's company, American Bus Shelter, and the other
Eko. It was not done on a bid submittal basis, such as in Anaheim, but negotiated
amongst the Council. Proposals were submitted, but not sealed bids.
Councilwoman Kaywood asked Mr. Williams if he would object if the same were
done in Anaheim.
Mr. Williams answered that he would and he objected to it in Santa Aha. He
believed that some of those people would fall by the wayside even before the
first shelter was installed.
Councilwoman Kaywood then explained to Mr. Williams if she seemed a bit hostile,
she was to the degree that Mr. Eggett had discussed. Anahei~ should have had the
shelters installed and in use for seniors and all other bus riders long ago; Mr.
Williams stated that she could not blame him for that because he went through
the City's process.
Councilwoman Kaywood stated it was held back because of him; Mr. Williams
stated he hoped his company could compensate by proceeding with the bus shelters
in a far faster way than any other company. He hoped they could install 20
to 25 shelters between 90 and 120 days and beat even the Cityts limit. They
would try to show they were the worthy company in that sense.
Councilman Overholt asked the City Attorney if they were at liberty to award
the contract to the low bidder for the 20 to 25 and then award another contract
to the other bidder at the same price for another 20 to 25.
City Attorney Hopkins replied that he did not have the specifications in front
of him; however, it was his understanding that the low bidder would be given
the contract, and it would not be a matter of having two companies participating.
79-631
City Hall~ Anaheim,...California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5~ 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
Mayor Seymour stated he was most satisfied with the results that had come out of
the lengthy process and what they had before them was a shelter designed by staff
with safety, aesthetics and durability in mind with the ability to keep it clean
and with amenities they felt were important. He was also satisfied with the
fact that they went through a normal public process of putting something out
to bid to insure that the taxpayer would receive the most for his money. For
some reason, there seemed to be reticence on the part of the Council to move
ahead with the low bidder, and he suspected it was left over from some rather
strongly stated opinions and strong support, for whatever reasons, for a company
called Bus Stop who chose not to enter the bidding competition.
MOTION: Councilman Seymour stated he was totally satisfied with the recommen-
dation of staff and the proposal of Convenience and Safety and thereupon moved
to approve the recommendation, accepting the proposal of Convenience and Safety
of Los Angeles and authorizing the City Attorney to prepare the necessary agree-
ment. Councilman Bay seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilwoman Kaywood stated her concern revolved around
the fact that the process was reopened a year ago for everybody else to come in
and start all over, and she believed there was a lot wrong with that process.
Mayor Seymour maintained there were two things wrong with that process at the
time, (1) they were not getting the shelter best designed for the needs of
the City and, (2) there was no competitive bidding in the process.
Councilman Roth stated he was going to support the motion although he was not
entirely satisfied with it. Mr. Eggett was right; they had spent too much
time and effort on it and perhaps too much staff time and money relative to
specifications, recommendations and studies, etc.
Councilwoman Kaywood stated she would support the motion as well, but would
take Mr. Williams up on the challenge and would be looking for the best bus
shelter with the best maintenance.
Councilman Overholt stated he, too, was going to support the motion, but pointed
out that the pilot study which started before he became a Council Member was
commenced at a time when it was questionable whether the Council would approve
bus shelters to begin with. There was some very negative attitudes about bus
shelters at the time and Mr. Eggett might bear that in mind. He agreed with
the Mayor that they had come up with what the staff felt to be the best shelter
for the citizens of Anaheim.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Mayor Seymour asked that a verbatim transcript of the entire proceeding on this
item be prepared. (A verbatim transcript of the foregoing proceedings is on
file in the City Clerk's office)
RECESS: By general consent, the Council recessed for 10 minutes. (3:05 P.M.)

106: CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - BUDGET: To consider the proposed 1979-80

Mayor asked if any member of the public wished to speak to the propsed 1979-80
budget; there being no response, he closed the public hearing.
On motion by Councilwoman Kaywood, seconded by Councilman Overholt, public
hearing on the proposed 1979-80 Resource Allocation Plan was continued one
week. MOTION CARRIED.

Councilwoman Kaywood asked if Mr. Reeve was in the audience; Mr. Reeve was not
present. Councilwoman Kaywood then stated she wanted to know if there was some
way to find out if Mr. Reeve had contacted Sarah Pearson, because she believed
it critical that he talk to her to find out truly what the historical buildings
were in the City.

City Hall~ Anaheim~ California- COUNCIL MINUTES- June 5, 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
158: SALE OF UNIMPROVED CITY LAND - REQUEST FOR EXTENSION OF ESCROW: On motion
by Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilwoman Kaywood, the request of Mr. Owen
Cazier, et al, for a 60-day extension of time to the agreement to purchase
property located 450 feet more or less, south of Lincoln Avenue, and 240 feet
more or less east of Beach Boulevard, was approved, as recommended in memorandum
dated May 25, 1979 from the City Attorney's office. MOTION CARRIED.
131: SOUND BARRIERS - ROUTE 57 FREEWAY: Councilwoman Kaywood referred to a
letter received from Caltrans and she was pleased to report that construction
of the sound barriers along the Route 57 freeway had begun. The estimated
completion date was April 1980 with a separate landscaping contract to follow
soon thereafter.
105: APPOINTMENT TO REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION: Councilman Overholt noted that
when Councilman Bay was appointed to the Council, his seat on the Redevelopment
Commission was declared vacant by his resignation. He thereupon nominated Mr.
Herb Leo to fill the vacancy on the Redevelopment Commission left by the res-
ignation of Mr. Bay. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion.
Councilman Overholt stated that Mr. Leo indicated he would accept the nomination.
On motion by Councilwoman Kaywood, seconded by Councilman Bay, nominations for
appointment to the Redevelopment Commission were closed. MOTION CARRIED.
A vote was then taken on Mr. Herb Leo's appointment to the Redevelopment
Commission. MOTION CARRIED.
174: H.E.R.E. RAPE CRISIS CLINIC - PROGRESS REPORT: Ms. Dee Spring, Project
Director of the H.E.R.E. Rape Crisis Clinic, 516 North Placentia Avenue, Placentia
referred to the packet submitted to the Council which included an evaluation
from Castenada and Burg Associates. It was a very positive evaluation conducted
by that firm hired by the Orange County Criminal Justice Council to perform
the evaluation. Ms. Spring then explained that from March 1 last year to March 31,
1979, they had treated or rehabilitated 10 victims from Anaheim and put them
back in society. From March 31, 1979 to May 31, 1979 they had already taken
in four new victims from Anaheim. The cost for treating those victims last
year was $250 per victim on the average or $2,500 a month for 10 victims. The
crime rate was up in Orange County, and thus they could not project the esca-
lation which might occur and the number of victims. The Clinic had tripled
in size since its inception in 1977. Ms. Spring then explained in more detail
several aspects of the program.
She continued that they had been told by the Orange County Criminal Justice
Council that there was $22,000 in recycled funds available to assist them to
keep their doors open and without that money, they would probably have to
discontinue service by October 1, 1979. In order for them to pursue the $11,000
which was approximately 10% of their operational costs, they needed a commitment
from Anaheim for 5% of that as a hard match. They were not assured of get-
ting any more funds at this time from anywhere and next year there would be no
funding under the Robbins Bill for Rape Clinics, whereas they had expected an
increase in those funds. She reiterated she was present to ask for a commit-
ment of approximately 5% of that $11,000 which amounted to approximately $550.
79-637
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5, 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
As well, Mr. Keith Concannon, System Committee of the Orange County Criminal
Justice Council requested if Anaheim did make that commitment, that City
Manager Talley write a letter to him prior to June 14, 1979 stating that the
Council had done so, so that it could be taken into consideration by the
Systems Committee.
MOTION: Councilman Seymour moved to approve the request for 5% of the amount
of the grant in the approximate amount of $550 to be appropriated from the
Council Contingency Fund. Councilman Bay seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilwoman Kaywood stated that Ms. Spring had called
her, and they discussed the matter with regard to the funding of the Police Training
Center. She wanted to know what effect the request would have on that new
building.
Ms. Spring explained that it had no effect at all because they had no right
to bid on that money as it had been locked up by the Systems Committee.
Mayor Seymour, speaking to City Manager Talley, asked for clarification that
the funds Ms. Spring was after were called recycled funds which had nothing
to do with the establishment of a police training facility at Golden West
College.
Mr. Talley answered that was true, but wanted to clarify some of the remarks
made by Ms. Spring. The $22,000 of recycled funds were available for disposi-
tion by the Systems Committee to any project they might deem appropriate. There
had been no commitment that the funds would be delegated or approved to her.
The Systems Con~nittee requested in each and every case recently that the funds
be matched in order to make them go as far as possible, and it might be that
the Committee would require a 50-50 match. The Council should be aware that
while there was no connection directly with the recycled funds, from a political
standpoint, the two rape clinics in the County had protested the Orange County
Criminal Justice Council's allocation of money to the regional training center.
They protested to the State Council and the project had been set aside for a
month and would be reconsidered in Sacramento on June 22, 1979. He hoped that
any letter the City might write would include endorsement of the regional
training center requested by the Chiefs and any action taken not be interpreted
as not being completely supportive of that as well.
The Mayor stated he would include that in his motion and also to be included
in the letter to Mr. Concannon that they were supportive of the Rape Crisis
Clinic.
Mr. Talley asked if it was more than 5%, would the Council want the opPortunity
to review the matter again; the Mayor answered "yes".
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion with addition as articulated.
MOTION CARRIED.
79-638
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5~ 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
134: GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 150 AND NEGATIVE DECLARATION: To consider
alternate proposals of ultimate land uses for property located on the east
side of Harbor Boulevard, 870 feet north of the centerline of Chapman Avenue,
and amendment to the text of the General Plan Amendment to permit mobilehome
park development in commercial areas.
On motion by Councilwoman Kaywood, seconded by Councilman Roth, June 19, 1979,
at 3:00 P.M., was the date and time set for a public hearing on General Plan
Amendment No. 150 and negative declaration. MOTION CARRIED.
145: OPPOSITION TO ORANGE COUNTY USE PERMIT UP79-32P - VARIANCE VA79-4P FOR
A BILLBOARD: Planning Director Ron Thompson explained that the proposed
billboard would be located on the railroad right-of-way going over the freeway
underpass on Douglass Road. It was 80 feet high or approximately 2½ times
larger than the normal size permitted in Anaheim, and it was not at an inter-
section or an arterial highway. It was also approximately 30 feet above the
elevation of the freeway and would be quite visible from the Stadium area.
It was approximately 1000 feet northerly of where the Big "A" would be relocated.
The Planning staff and Commission were of the opinion that it was not a desirable
amenity to have in the area.
On motion by Councilman Seymour, seconded by Councilman Overholt, staff was
directed to voice strong opposition to the County to the granting of the
subject permit. MOTION CARRIED.

The Mayor declared Ordinance No. 4015 duly passed and adopted.
Councilman Seymour then moved to oppose AB699 (Assemblyman Young) on the basis
that the Council believed in local control and self-determination and that the
bill would do nothing more than place in the hands of the legislators in
Sacramento the power to unfairly control the destiny of the cities as they
chose to set rates on CATV. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion. MOTION
CARRIED.
Councilman Bay suggested that the motion and some of the reasons for opposition
should be incorporated in a letter to the Senate, since the bill had already
passed the Assembly.

173: CONGRESSIONAL INQUIRY ON THE GAS CRUNCH: Councilman Overholt reported
that on Thursday, May 31, 1979 at the Mayor's request, he offered testimony
in written form at the inquiry conducted by Congressman Jerry Patterson on
the gas crunch problem. The text of the statement was distributed to all
Council Members. A quick response to the testimony was received not only
from commercial interests, but also citizens. He stated that Mr. Dean Grose,
Public Information Officer, did an excellent job at putting the material together
so that they could make a meaningful statement at the inquiry.
173: PROPOSED CUT IN DIAL-A-RIDE SERVICE: Councilwoman Kaywood stated she
distributed to all Council Members the statement she made yesterday at the
OCTD regarding Dial-a-Ride service. They discussed cutting off the serivce
in West and Central Anaheim and continuing it in East Anaheim only, and she
asked that they delay their decision. Originally they were going to extend
the service county-wide, until Proposition 13 cut their revenues. Now they
were proposing to cut off the existing service and to institute it for
seniors 65 years of age and over only. She pointed out that there were
many inequities in such a system and there were many questions that needed
to be answered. A motion was made to postpone the decision for two weeks
and it was also pointed out they were now spending $4.1 million on the program
servicing 40% of the population. If they cut $1.5 million, $3.6 million would
then be servicing only 8% of the population, causing an escalation of the present
79-642
City Hall~j Anahei. m~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5~ 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
cost of $2.42 per patron to $29.10 per patron. The OCTD decided to take
action, but felt that there was time for implementation of the new proposal
to look into some of the problems she raised.
Further discussion followed between Councilman Roth and Councilwoman Kaywood
wherein she (Kaywood) explained additional aspects of the proposed program,
at the conclusion of which, Councilwoman Kaywood asked that the Council look
into the matter and reach a decision by next week because the District
would be taking further action in two weeks.
The Mayor asked staff to prepare some background on the issue and include it
in the Council agenda for next week for subsequent action by the Council.
Councilman Overholt stated that those Council Members who were at Supervisor
Clark's breakfast the other morning knew he was a champion for seeing to it
that the handicapped who would not be eligible for the Dial-a-Lift program
(wheelchairs) were not overlooked in whatever modification there may be in
the Dial-a-Ride program. He noticed in a recent newspaper article that point
had been raised and they were looking into it. There were many handicapped
of all ages in the City who used Dial-a-Ride as a means of shopping, etc., who
were not in a wheelchair. If the service to them was going to be discontinued,
they ought to know the impact before that took place, although he did not know
if staff could report on that aspect in one week.
Mr. Talley suggested, if appropriate, they should perhaps should invite a spokes-
man from OCTD to the meeting so that the Council could question him directly
on the issue as to the reasoning behind the proposed change.
The Mayor agreed, but requested that a staff report be submitted as well.
114: KICK-OFF LUNCHEON - HALLOWEEN FESTIVAL COMMITTEE: Councilwoman Kaywood
reported on her attendance at the Kick-Off Luncheon of the Halloween Festival
Committee held Friday, June 1, 1979. She believed the City could look forward
to a bigger and better Halloween parade this year.
114: FIRST ANNUAL MICHAEL ROSTON. AWARD NIGHT: Councilwoman Kaywood reported
on the First Annual Michael Roston Award Night function held at the Brookhurst
Community Center on Wednesday, May 30, 1979, where Ray Bradbury was the guest
speaker. The program was excellent and it was a fitting memorial to Michael
Roston.-
178: SOUTH COAST AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT BOARD: Councilman Roth reported on
the Friday, June 1, 1979 meeting of the subject Board in San Bernardino
where the budget was again discussed. As well, important decisions were made
relative to future economic problems, smog and the whole issue of air quality.
Councilman Roth emphasized that he appreciated the technical support he was
receiving from Dick McMillan from Northrup and from Ian Skidmore from Bechtel
Corporation,

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 5, 1979~ 1:30 P.M.
178: STATE WATER POLICY SYMPOSIUM: Councilman Bay reported on his attendance
at the State Water Policy Symposium on Friday, June 1, 1979 at the Registry
Hotel in Irvine. They listened to the pros and cons on various bills in the
State Legislature, the bottom line and recommendations from the Metropolitan
Water District being, immediate support for AB200, Assemblyman Ayala's bill
on the Peripheral Canal, with which he agreed wholeheartedly.
Mayor Seymour stated he believed the Council had previously acted on supporting
that bill; Councilman Bay was pleased that action had taken place.
105: RESIGNATION FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION: Mayor Seymour referred to the
letter received from Mr. Glen Johnson, Planning Commissioner, resigning from
that post effective June 30, 1979 because of additional business and personal
duties. He thereupon moved to accept the resignation of Mr. Johnson with regret
and commendation for his service. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion.
MOTION CARRIED.
148: ORANGE COUNTY LEAGUE OF CITIES - APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE FOR ELECTED
OFFICIALS: The Mayor reminded the Council that there were two appointments
available for elected officials in the Orange County Division of the League
of Cities - one on the Air Quality Management Plan Subregional Advisory
Committee and two on the Criminal Justice Council. Recommendations were to
be submitted to Alice MacLain by June 12, 1979. The Mayor continued that
there were also public appointments to be made - there were two openings from
the Senior Citizens Council and two on the Human Relations Commission. He
asked for any input from the Council that they might have on those appointments,
and he would subsequently write to Alice MacLain making those recommendations
on behalf of the Council.
114: LIAISON TO THE ANAHEIM ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION AND REDEVELOPMBNT
COMMISSION: Councilman Seymour stated he had two recommendations for Council
consideration. Due to the resignation of Councilman Kott, he moved to appoint
Councilman Bay as the liaison Council Member to the Anaheim Economic Development
Corporation. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
The Mayor continued that Councilman Roth has served as the liaison to the
Redevelopment Commission, but with his duties and responsibilities on the
Air Quality Management Board and the Sanitation District, it would
be difficult to continue. His recommendation, therefore, with Councilman Roth's
concurrence, would be to have Councilman Bay, who had just resigned from the
Redevelopment Commission, act as Council liaison to that Commission in order
to lighten Councilman Roth's load.
Councilman Seymour moved to appoint Councilman Bay as Council liaison to the
Redevelopment Commission. Councilman Overholt seconded the motion. MOTION
CARRIED.
114: APPOINTMENT TO JOINT FIRE TRAINING AUTHORITY: Mayor Seymour explained
that Councilman Kott had also served on the Joint Fire Training Authority.
He therefore asked Councilwoman Kaywood to serve on that Authority if she
concurred; Councilwoman Kaywood was agreeable.
