ROLL CALL OF OFFICERS: Present: Councilmen Imperial, Taylor, Tury and Mayor Cleveland Absent: Councilman Cichy APPROVAL OF MINUTES: August 9, 1983 - Regular Meeting Councilman Taylor requested that the Minutes of the August 9th Meeting be deferred so that information regarding a resident of Rosemead,who had lower estimates on rubbish bins was not able to hire them'-rather-than Modern Service whose rates were higher, could be added to the minutes to reflect that although residents can get lower bids they are not allowed to obtain these services. He felt that this was important since Modern is now requesting separate charges for bins to be placed.on.the site for construc- tion jobs. This would verify that Modern has a monopoly.

CC-S EXECUTION OF PARA TRANSIT SERVICES AGREEMENT Councilman Taylor inquired how the ratio:of 40% and 601 were arrived at for a split on the cost of the Para Transit Services. Paul Rankin, Executive Assistant to the City Manager, stated that the 40% and 60% ratio was arrived at by the 1980 census of elderly population of the two cities since only people over 55 can use the Para Transit Services. Councilman Tury inquired if there were assurances that there would be up-to-date vehicles used in this program. Mr. Rankin stated that included in the contract with the company which has been selected is a section which states that the vehicles have to be 1982 or newer and have to have.10,000 or less miles.

Councilman Taylor felt that the 50 cent rate was too low for those traveling outside of Rosemead, and that $1.00 would be more appropriate for traveling outside the City. V. MATTERS FOR DISCUSSION A. 8471 Wells Street Donald Wagner, Assistant City Manager, stated that he has been in touch with Mr. Prunk and that he is satisfied that the City is making every effort to correct that particular problem. Councilman Taylor stated that he could sympathize with Mr. Pr.unk's problem of moss and algae since the water is continuously running out of that nursery. Councilman Tury requested that Mr. Burgeson of the Edison Company be contacted and let the City know what is being done about this problem since Edison is leasing the property to the nursery. Mr. Wagner stated that the City Engineers and the Edison Engineers have gone to the site and there is no drainage on that particular street and the nursery that is leasing that property is using a particular fertilizer that promotes algae as well as the plants. The street sweeper is being utilized at least twice a week and street improvements for that street is scheduled for March of 1984 and at that time elimination of that problem will be discussed with Edison Company. Councilman Tury stated that if Edison is leasing out that property, then they are responsible, and he requested that the Council be kept informed and requested that Mr. Burgeson explain to the Council what his plans for correcting the problems are. CM 8-23-83 Page H3 VI. MATTERS FROM OFFICIALS A. Councilman Tury requested that the alleyway between Fern and Klingerman on the eastside of Walnut Grove be swept tomorrow. B. Councilman Tury inquired why the signal at Rush and Walnut Grove was on the blinking phase for almost a week, and requested information regarding this signal and if it was re- ported to the Company and why it wasn't repaired. Councilman Taylor stated that there had been a policy deci- sion that reports to the Council were to be made by the Contractor, when the calls were placed and when the signals were serviced, and he inquired of the staff if such a report has been received. Mr. Wagner stated that a log is being kept of when those calls are made to SMI and when we receive an invoice from SMI the date and time of the necessary repairs are included. John Mayerski, Traffic Engineer, stated that the signal was on flash last Wednesday, and it was reported that day, the follow through on it disclosed that they had corrected the problem and was operating automatically Thursday and Friday. It was noticed again that it was on flash yesterday afternoon and reported and it is now operating properly. Councilman Tury stated that he saw it on Wednesday, Friday and over the weekend and Monday morning and again this morning. Mr. Mayerski stated that it is a new signal and there is a warrantee and the manufacturer will take care of any problem. C. Councilman Taylor commented on a report that was expected from the Sheriff's department, and inquired if the staff had such a report in the past week. Mr. Wagner stated that he had no other information other than the Confidential information which had been dated August 19th, and that information is still forthcoming. Councilman Taylor stated that he had requested a packet of information be sent to the District Attorney's Office, and inquired who supplied that information. Mr. Wagner stated that he was not involved in that transaction however, he would get that information for him tommorow. Councilman Taylor stated that he had asked that the packet on the Naugles incident which had occured in March _ be sent to the District Attorney's Office. There were only two items sent to the District Attorney and he had asked for a copy of that packet and it did not have the original officers report that started the ques- tions. That was not sent to the District Attorneys Office and neither was the reply from Captain Callas, neither were the minutes of the conversation here at the Council Meeting. He wanted to know who pro- vided that information and why half of it was left out when it was sent. D. Councilman Taylor requested that the City Attorney give the Council a list of the additions to the Municipal Code and the deletes. It would be helpful to have that information when compar- ing the pages of the Codes. Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that he could do it, however, it will take quite a bit of time to provide that for the Council. CM 8-23-83 Page #4 • E. Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that a memorandum regarding the Modern Service Company had been presented to the Council, however, it was his recommendation, that this matter be held over to the next regular meeting in order to have a full Council to take action on it. Previously, September 6th was set as a deadline for a resolution of this matter, and he pro- posed that date be changed to September 14th which would be the day after the next Council Meeting. There being no objections, the deadline was deferred to September 14, 1983. F. Robert Kress, City Attorney, requested an Executive Session to up date the Council on some right of way acquisition. The Council recessed to an Executive Session. The Council reconvened from the Executive Session. Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that the City Council met in a closed session and received a report from the City Attorney regarding the acquisition of right of way on Del Mar Avenue, and no action was taken. There being no further business, the Council Meeting was adjourned to the next regular meeting of September 13, 1983 at 8:00 p. m.
