help in clearing up a trash problem. He felt that he is being
discriminated against since he has to pay $54 dollars a month for
a bin which he does not want or need, and that his neighbors are
paying only $11 per month. He does not think it is fair.

however, he directed staff to prepare a written report on this

Mayor Taylor opened the Public Hearing and inquired if there
was anyone in the audience who would care to speak regarding this
matter.
John Carmona, Planning Director, presented the staff report
on this matter, and stated that Notice to a tenant of a property
is not a requirement of either State law.or local ordinance; how-
ever, as a matter of practice, the subject property/business was
posted with a public notice together with the other required post-
ing places. Mr. Manrique owner of the property was mailed a notice
along with the other property owners within 300 feet of the property.
Ernest Duncan, 801 S. Garfield Avenue, Alhambra, Attorney for
Alma Phillips, the applicant, presented some photographs of the
subject premises. He stated that had he had the opportunity to
present their case to the Planning Commission, he felt that there
would not be a need to request an appeal to their decision. He
felt that because of the parking problem, the planning Commission
should not have approved the CUP to serve beer at 8742 E..Garvey.
He stated that Mrs. Phillips has been there with her business for
25 years, and during that time there had been three requests for
the sale of beer and they had been denied.
Alma Phillips, 8742 E. Garvey Avenue, owner of the business,
stated that the others had been denied. the sale of beer because
of parking inadequacies and that situation has not changed.

Yaky Restaurant, stated that the customers want to have beer with
the food that is being served. He stated that he did not know of
any reason that they should not serve beer with the meals.

not be sold to customers unless they order a meal with it.
Councilman Tury stated that the conditions should state that
the sale of beer with meals be limited to the hours of 11:00 a.m.
to 11:00 P.M.
Mayor Taylor stated that the parking is a problem;however-, the
problem existed before and with or without beer it will be a problem.
Mr. Duncan stated that the parking does not satisfy present
City code requirements and requested that the Council not add to
the problem by granting their request to sell beer.

Mrs. Phillips stated that the City of Rosemead had turned
her down when she requested a liquor license 11 years ago and
that was because of a lack of parking.
Mayor Taylor stated that times do change and he did not justify
what had been done by a prior Council.
Mayor Taylor inquired if there were any other comments, there
being none the Public Hearing was closed.
Councilman Tury stated that he could personally tell the dif-
ference between a restaurant selling beer in conjunction with their
restaurant business, and a bar selling sandwiches in conjunction
with their alcoholic beverage sales.
Councilman Bruesch inquired how many parking spaces are avail-
able in the entire parking lot.
John Carmona; Planning Director, stated that the plot plan shows
12 spaces; however, the ability for more parking is there.

and also check into the possibility of-J*& J-being an illegal`-
business-

D. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER INSTALLATION OF CURB,GUTTER,
SIDEWALKS & DRIVEWAY APPROACHES FOR GLENDON WAY IMPROVEMENTS
Mayor Taylor opened the Public Hearing and inquired if there
was anyone in the audience who would care to speak regarding this
matter.
Vivian Waldroff, 9307 Glendon Way, Rosemead, inquired who would
pay for the things that are removed when the sidewalk is installed.
The things being removed are sprinklers and trees.
Mayor Taylor stated that the trees can sometimes be relocated
if they are small enough, and the sprinklers will be reinstalled
at the City's expense. He stated that the 60 days allowed is the
time limit that is permitted for the owner to contract the work;
however, after the 60 days the City puts it out to bid and they
get the work done at a unit price for all of the properties.
Councilman Tury stated as a clarification that if the City
takes a fence they will replace a fence, and if they remove your
sprinklers, then the City will replace the sprinklers at the City's
expense,.
Loretta Cox, 9439 E. Guess, stated that she would like to have
her driveway graduated instead of as steep as it is now, and in-
quired if that could be done.
Mayor Taylor stated that if you have a concrete driveway,
then it will be engineered to the current standards and uniformly
done along the street. If there is grading that needs to be done,
to take that hump out it will be taken care of individually.
CM 6-12-84

Mrs. Waldroff stated that the water from her neighbor stays
in front of her driveway and she felt that it was a health hazard,
and requested that when they redo the street possibly that could be remedied. -
Mayor Taylor stated that would be worked out during construc-
tion, and if there is a water problem, staff will check into that
and find the source and notify them to cease with that.
Vida Zinknesh, 3839 Temple City Blvd., commented on a minor
correction on his notice that stated that his property was an
empty lot and that is his residence. He stated that his property
goes from Temple City Blvd., to Ellis Lane and since he has already
paid for curbs and sidewalks on Temple City Blvd., would he only
have to pay for half of the cost on Ellis Lane.
Mayor Taylor stated that the.policy has been to have the owner
pay 50 feet of the side lot; however, this may take individual handl-
ing.
Tom Howard, Deputy City Engineer, stated that these people on
Temple City and Ellis Lane do have that problem, and in conformance
to City policy, which states that on corner lots the property owner
pays for the full frontage on the short and 50% or 50 feet whichever
is the least on the sideyards. The same policy could be applied on
these lots.
Mayor Taylor inquired if the City would then pick up 50% of
that cost, and felt that would be a reasonable solution.
Mr. Howard stated yes.
Camella Cassau, 9419 E. Guess Street, inquired if her whole drive-
way could be resurfaced while they are doing her driveway approach,
and inquired who she should contact.
Mayor Taylor stated that she could contact the Assistant City
Manager in the morning and then he would contact the Engineers
to see what could be done.
Cecelia Vinkomaulder, 9459 Guess Street, stated that she had
a light post in front of her house, and inquired if that would be
replaced, and if 2 sprinklers could be placed in the parkway.
Tom Howard, Deputy Engineer, stated that would be relocated.
Bob Zerbel, 9568 Guess Street, expressed his appreciation to
the City of the fine handling of the project, and inquired what
the time table is for commencement of the project.
Tom Howard stated that the Contractor would be starting tomorrow
morning, and will begin preparation work on the street, and he will
get together with Zerbel to schedule.the work around his area.
Mayor Taylor inquired about the four large trees on Rio Hondo
Street just south of the Dinsmoor House.
Tom Howard stated that those trees will not be replaced.
Councilman Bruesch inquired if someone had a huge large Oak
Tree that they would like to save and if they did their own con-
tracting of the sidewalk, could they then go around the tree.
Tom Howard stated that the sidewalk cannot go outside the
City's right-of-way, and if they did there might be some liability
to the City.
Mayor Taylor closed the Public Hearing.
MOTION BY COUNCILMAN TURY, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN BRUESCH

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
Councilman Bruesch requested clarification regarding this
service.
Tom Howard, Deputy Engineer, stated that throughout the
Construction industry, hazards are trying to be eliminated
that are caused when a contractor goes into telephone line and/
or gas line and causes fire or a disruption of communications.
The State Legislature has adopted this bill which requires all
contractors to notify anybody who has any kind of facility in
an area that they are digging. It requires them to notify an
organization such as Service Alert that can conveniently notify
those agencies. It is a State Law that anyone that has those
facilities must join Service Alert and to fund it. CM 6-12-84

Tom Howard continued by saying that the City of Rosemead
does have its own permit process and if anyone is digging in one
of its streets, the City would know about it without this, however,
the Law still says the City has to become a member.

was funded by CDBG, and it is the last one with this particular
funding. Since it was a CDBG project, it could not be incorporated
with some of the other City projects because it would cause those
projects to be more expensive.
Councilman Bruesch inquired why this would qualify for CDBG
Funding and others such as Pine don't.
Tom Howard stated that this project is in the target area,
and although,Pine is in the target area, the cost of Pine Improve-
ment is more than the.CDBG funds available.

divided.
Tom Howard, Deputy City Engineer, stated that under HES funding
there is a formula that is applied to every project, and it.is based
on the need as determined by accidents and other factors involved in
the street versus the amount of money.that you are requesting to do
certain work on the signal. In this case, $9000 was requested to
do a portion of the work on the signal and for that reason it did
qualify for the HES funding for that portion of the work, the re-
maining balance of the cost are being paid by the City's Redevelop-
ment Agency.

V. MATTERS FOR DISCUSSION & ACTION
A. HEALTH COVERAGE FOR RETIRED EMPLOYEES
Mayor Taylor stated that he did not have a problem with Health
Coverage for retired employees; however,if it'is approved,it should
cover the current Council rather than be retroactive.
Councilman Tury inquired if it could be people who are cur-
rently on the health service.
Mayor Taylor stated that it is the general policy relating
to health insurance that when employment ceases your insurance
coverage ceases and you get insurance through the company you are
next employed with.
Councilman Tury stated that he did not feel that it was asking
too much to be allowed to purchase something that they were using.

UPON ROLL CALL ALL COUNCILMEMBERS PRESENT VOTED AYE.
The Mayor declared said motion duly carried and so ordered.
C. CDBG- WEATHERIZATION & ENERGY CONSERVATION PROGRAM
Donald Wagner, Assistant City Manager, stated that weatheriza-
tion would cost $60,000 which would come entirely from the CDBG
Program, and would not have additional administrative costs for
the implementation of the program by Willdan. He stated that
in-house staff could be hired and trained as energy auditors.
Councilman Tury and Mayor Taylor both commented that the Edison
and Gas Co. already do that.
Jim Guerra stated that all the work is eligible under the Home
Handyman Program.
Councilman Bruesch stated that staff should be publicizing the
availability of this program to the senior citizens who qualify.
Mayor Taylor stated that what is being requested is to take
$60,000 out of the deferred loan program and put it into the Handy-
man Program and administer it through the current program that the
City has, and not add any in-house inspectors. The Gas Company and
Edison can be called since they are being paid for it.
Councilman Tury stated that he had some reservations to that
proposal because with the Handyman Program there has been a lot of
unsafe wiring replaced, plugged up sewers have been fixed and a lot
of leaking roofs fixed, broken windows. He felt that those things
are really problems, and those are things that need to be taken
care of before doing things like weatherization and such.
Mayor Taylor inquired if the Council wanted to take action
on this item or just let the program remain as it is.
Councilman Bruesch made a motion to accept the first option
of putting more emphasis on the weatherization aspect of CDBG pro-
gram, however, the motion died due to a lack of a second.
Mayor Taylor inquired if the Council wanted to take any other
action or leave it as it is.
Councilman Tury requested that this item be brought back to
the next meeting, and he wanted to know how many people are apply-
ing for the Handyman Program and what kind of interest there is in
it.
Mayor Taylor stated that this item would be deferred to the
next meeting for further information.
D. SENATE LATCHKEY PROGRAM
Donald Wagner stated that if the Council endorses this parti-
cular Latchkey Package, the staff will notify our elected state
representatives of the City's support.
Councilman Bruesch stated that the package is needed and
should be supported.
Mayor Taylor stated that this bill appropriates $100,000,000
for the purpose of funding extended day care programs. He felt
there is a need.for some of these.programs; however, he felt that
there was a heavy intrusion by Government into all facits of life.
Councilman Tury stated that he would have to abstain since
he had not had the opportunity to study it in its entirety.
