sibly some other organization would want to do it and the $5000
which is deleted from the Chambers Account could be used for it.

minutea be researched because he recalled that there had been
a budget meeting where it had been decided that the Chamber's
Budget would be decreased gradually and in a three or four year
period that they would be self-sufficient.

tional information.

Councilman Taylor requested a clarification of the agreement
on Item #3 where .it states "until a new development is commenced"
Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that there had been a
discussion with Mr. Taylor regarding his intent with this pro-
perty and this agreement states clearly that is the City's desire
not to have him spend money for improvements that would have to
be torn out if he completes the proposed building. At this point
it is merely a sketch on a piece of paper, and that is why the
time frame of approximately 18 months to put the project together
or find out that he is not going to be able to and then complete
the paving as necessary.
Clayton Taylor stated that he has seen the agreement and has
agreed with the intent to sign it. He stated that the agreement
is ambiguous, but that is desirable to both sides at this time.
The time frames are perfectly agreeable to him and the development
will proceed within this time limit, and he will live up to the
Code as it is interpreted, and he will meet the building code with
his development.
MOTION BY COUNCILMAN HUNTER, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN CICHY

VII. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
A. Bob Young stated that both the Chamber of Commerce
and the Kiwanis have looked into providing a parade and they
both feel that it is too late for this year because so many
school bands are involved. A small parade could be put on,

the full board of the Chamber of Commerce and the City Council.

spoke about the program of the L. A. County Animal Control and

to discuss personnel for the year.
Frank G. Tripepi, City Manager, stated that the Council
voted 3 to 2 to extend the Employment Agreement with the City
Manager, the Council voted 3 to 2 to accept the City Managers
recommendation for a reclassification plan. On the agreement
with the City Manager,Mr. Taylor's "no" vote was a reflection
of the six months severance pay called for in the Contract.

Mr. Taylor's "no" vote went along with the classification but
felt that the increases were excessive. The percentage increases
were too high.. The Council voted' 4 to 1 to grant :7,%:_ac2-,o,9h,the
board cost'of living increase to the employees and to reinstate
the 5% merit system at the City Manager's discretion. The one
"no" vote was that of Mayor Tury. There was a 3 to 2 vote to
