V. MATTERS FO*ISCUSSION & ACTION •
A. CAL FED
Mayor Taylor stated that on the last meeting there was two
items on the Agenda and he had asked for a report back and one
of those had to do with the Cal Fed or the Water Company. He
had requested at.'that time that information be brought back to
this Council. He asked Mr. Tripepi to brief them on where we
stand on that property.
Frank G. Tripepi; City Manager, stated that if there were
no objection, in as much as it is a matter involving litigation
he would like the Attorney to make any statements. He stated
that he would h6t.like to make any that should not be stated in
public.
Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that recalling the last
Council Meeting where there was some discussion of this item and
thought that was very close to March 15th at that time Cal Fed,
the developer of that project had the opportunity, because we
had not as yet delivered the property, they had the opportunity
to opt out of the agreement and rescind it. Since that time.
they have communicated their desire to go ahead with the project
and they have given a new deadline of April 15, 1980 for which
that property is to be delivered, and that is all at this time
that he is at liberty to discuss.
Mayor Taylor stated"that he believed that the option that
this Council. and Agency is hoping for is that settlement can be
agreed upon between Cal Fed and Mr. Nicholson with the Water Co.
He stated that he thought that was the hope of this Council and
the Agency. After April 15th this Council may be on their own
and the Agency may have to acquire it on their own.
Mayor Taylor made a motion to direct a letter to the Redevel-
opment Agency that if Mr. Nicholson of the Water Company rejects
the offer that this Agency or this Council direct the Agency to
abandon condemnation proceedings, if he does not accept the offer.
Councilman Tury stated that he did not think could be made
until we have an obligation to Cal Fed at this moment, and
until that time.....
Mr. Kress stated that this is:_aKma.tter that is under liti-
gation at this time and this very much should-be discussed in
executive session.
Mayor. Taylor inquired what it was under litigation for?
It is in the record and it is in the Courts. Just tell them
what is in the Court, not what the case is about.
Robert Kress, City Attorney, replied ':if you want to stategy
it is obviously an action in eminent domain."
Mayor Taylor stated "so that property is subject to condemna-
tion by the Redevelopment Agency"that a none fact." He inquired
what would happen after April 15th if Cal Fed says that's it we-',re
pulling out? That's in the agreement is that not correct? They
have the option to pull out after that, is that correct?
Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that was correct.
Mayor Taylor stated that's a public document. So his point is
that if they pull out after April 15th and they-say they don't want
it _T'm'concerned about whose going to put the money up for that
condemnation proceeding to continue.
Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that there is a meeting
on the night of April 15th.
Mayor Taylor stated that the Council should be on record,
are they going to continue with-'it or abandone it, or use tax
payers money to acquire it.
Councilman-Imperial stated that he did not want to make
any decisions at;-this time for7any future agencies. There might
be a change in the make up of this Council, therefore,having a
change in the make up on April 15th, and he would rather not
make any decisions at this time and wait for April 15th to see CM-3-25-81
what the make up of the Council will be. That would be the page #4
logical way to do it. Thank you.
Mayor. Taylor inquired if there wa's any objections since their
was no second tthe motion to have the mi*es verbatim on this
item of what we ave had so far.
There being no objection, it was so ordered.
B. CLAYTON.TAYLOR - M-1 STORAGE OF TRUCK TRAILERS
Mayor Taylor stated that the other item that was presented
was pertaining the M-1 Zoning in which Clayton Taylor, his brother
was here asking about a problem with some trailers. That was to
be brought back and he received a report last night and the Council
also received it, and ....asked if his brother had also received it.
it.
Clayton Taylor, 9760 Valley Blvd., stated yes he had received
Mayor Taylor inquired if there were any questions on it.
Clayton. Taylor stated that today he had received a letter
from the City Attorney that stated that in essence that we were
still at an impasse on.an automobile situation, but the City
contemplated no action,on his trailers that were currently stored
on M-1 property, However, in the same letter was a statement as
to that he was still researching and looking into the interpreta-
tion of whether or not fencing would be required so with that
thought in mind the City Planning Department and the City Attorney
he stated that he had no way of knowing how the City is going to
interpret that. A little further on in the letter because he does
intend to develop the property there is mention of such a letter
of intent.that the City Attorney wishes him to enter into. He
does not believe;.-that he should enter into a letter of intent if
the property is currently up to the M-1 standards in regards to
the fencing and the asphalt paving. So before anything can be
followed up on that he has to have determination as to whether
or not fencing and improvement are required and what the ruling
will be on that. However, with the meeting that he had with
the City Manager and the City Attorney had an open discussion
and he is sure that his intention are to go ahead and develop':
that property, however, he does not want to be put into a compelled
position. He wants all of his options left open as to how and when.
But again, he is still waiting on a ruling as to what requirements
are met.
Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated just as a point of clari-
fication ...you came into City Hall last Friday morning.
Mr. Taylor stated that was correct.
Mayor Taylor read portions of the letter from the City Attorney
to Mr. Clayton Taylor:
"At the outset of our discussion, "this is between the City
Manager, Planning Director and Mr. Kress and Mr. Taylor, I informed
you that there was no intention by the City to cause the storage
trailers to be removed from your property in the City of Rosemead."
Another paragraph states: Mr.'Kress is writing this: I agree
to..f,urther review the fencing requirements and advise you of my
opinion as to the applicability of this standard to your property."
Last paragraph on the first page says "as we agreed I will get
back to you with a draft agreement which recites your intent to
develop the site within 18 months. The agreement will provide for
deferral pending a.reasonable commencement date of the project of
enforcement of improvement requirements which would have to be
removed when'a building is constructed."
Mayor Taylor stated: "I have to agree with you, Bud, as
far as not signing it until a.11-is clarifed because I am looking
forward to this letter. I know other properties in this City and -
I want to find out how there agreements are arrived at. So until
this is cleared up, I have to agree with you. You have to do what
you think is best, but in any case, Mr. Kress.do you have any com-
ments on this?
Councilman Tury inquired about paragraph # 3
letter, the City states that it will not insist o

What kind of time
•
•
Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that was exactly why he
wanted to tie it down with an agreement. There is a certain amount
of flexibility and reasonability, He explained to Mr. Taylor during
the course of our meeting that he had had a similar situation in
the city of Bell Ga'rdens.where there was a.proposed development and
there was an existing trailer park, a small one, paving was required
and we entered into a very short letter agreement. The same kind
of agreement that is proposed here. During the course of our
meeting he asked Mr, Taylor if he would like such an agreement:
prepared, subject to his review of the terms would he enter into
it. He asked if the economy and his own personal finances per-
mitting, it this development was contemplated within 18 months,
and he stated that Mr. Taylors answer was yes.
Mr. Taylor stated that was correct, but however he wanted to
clarify one thing, "in your letter, it is worded in such a fashion
as to indicate that paving is required on that lot at its present
use."
Mr. Kress stated "it is".
Councilman Tury stated that way he reads the letter is that
your not going to have to pave it.
Mr. Taylor stated "without any agreement"
Councilman Tury stated that you cannot store on a grass lot.
It should be paved. If you have it for storage then you have to
do what: everyone else does for storage.
Mayor Taylor stated that is the cr:i.tical point, "what every-
one else has to do" and I am asking also, Bud would you object
to your statements verbatim, this whole conversation in the minutes.
Mr. Taylor stated "no"
Mayor 'T'aylor inquired if there was any objection to that.
There being.no objection, it was so ordered.
Mayor Taylor stated that there is going to be equal enforce-
ment as :far as I'm concerned, and I know that there are CUP out
with this City for properties on Garvey, Rosemead, San Gabriel &
Valley Blvd. that are going to be checked out. These are things
that have already come through the Planning Commission and this
Council so that there will be equal treatment. That's my bone
of contention.
Councilman Tury stated that he could not disagree at all,
and I think if someone is going to do something to improve the
City it should be a give and take. You should reach a compromise
with who ever is going to do it. But he felt that both parties
should be somewhat protected, or you end up with the same thing.,
"Why should I do it if the guy down the street is not doing it.
That's one. of the biggest problems in this town. We don't have
a. good strong consistent enforcement policy." He thought that
the letter was reasonably fair when I read this he thought that
Mr. Taylor had been willing to make the improvements. It sounded
like a pretty good deal for both the City and Mr. Taylor.
Mr. Taylor stated "absolutely, I agree the letter is reason-
able, but however the letter is based on certain assumptions.
It says I agree to sign a letter of intent, but before I sign
that letter of intent I have to scrutinize it very intently. I
art not going to wave my options just to get along."
Frank G. Tri.pepi, City Manager, inquired of Mr. Taylor if
he had ever received a. letter from the Planning Department indi-
cating that you were in non-compliance with an M-1 development:
standards.
Mr. Taylor stated "no, the only thing I've had was the
complaint from the Code Enforcement Officer." CM 3-25-80
Page #6
Frank G. 'fripepi., City Man- _i.nquired if Mr. Tay:Lor had
received a. letter stating that he was in non-compliance with the
M-1 development standards.
Mr. Taylor stated "no, I dial not"
Frank G. Tri.pepi inquired i.:f he had ever received one from
h:i.m .
Mr. Taylor stated "no sir"
Frank G. Tripepi., City Manager, stated that he would like
to advise this Council tli:i.s evening as long as we are on record
this City, my staff has never informed Mr. Taylor that he is
violating, M-1, development sl;anda.rds.
Mr. Taylor stated, "No, sir. That is not correct. You said
in writing, a letter. Your Code Enforcement Officer di.d.
Mr. Tr.ipepi stated that he had a vehicle abated, and he had
instructed hi.m in two separate meetings that that vehicle had
nothing t:o do with tine M-1 development: standards.
Mr, Taylor "we are not talking about that vehicle now."
Mr. Tri.Uepi inquired where did you receive a letter that
says you could not store the trailers.
Mr. Taylor stated "verba.lly, by your code enforcement officer
lie said that fenci,n,,, was required on that lot."
Mr. Ti-ipepi stated "you brought that matter to our attention
We did not even ask for n. mecti.ng with you. We merely abated. an
abandoned vehicle, and you came in and asked for a meeting on
M-1 standa.rds."
Mr. Taylor stated "because your Code Enforcement Officer
started making his own standards".
Mr. Tripepi stated "Mr. Mayor all I can say is that we have
never advised Mr. Taylor 'that is in violation of those standards."
Mayor Taylor inquired as to what the accusations of the Code
Enforcement Officer was making his own standards.
Mr. Taylor stated that the Code Enforcement Officer told him
that he would have to Fence his lot or else they would remove the
trailers.
Mayor Taylor stated that he was told that this was going to
happen he had asked that this be put on the Agenda to be brought
up publi.cly so that: it could be discussed because when a letter
was prepared and"Frank, I don't: have the file" but was shown a.
letter that stated the condit:i_orns or the situation as it stood
and in. parenthesis in the first sentence it stated what the pro-
blem was Mr, Clayton Taylor and then brother of the Mayor which
was not a relevant item. It should not even had been there..
Mr. '1'ri,pepi: stated that it was relative to me.
Mayor Taylor stated that :i_t may be relative to you but it
should make no difference who lie is.
Mr. Tripepi• stated that i:f he wasn't your brother than I
wouldn't: have troub;L,ed you w:i.tl, the matter at that: pnr'ticul.u'
time.
Mayor 'Oylor stated that i.s the problem, I am not informed
of a l.ot oy these 'things you don't: trouble me with. Because he
came to me and asked about it, and when you say that you wouldn't
trouble me with it. LAd you inform Mr. Sullivan to be here tonight?

Page. #7.
Mayor Taylor inquired if Mr. Tripepi informed Mr. Sullivan
to be here.
Mr. Tri_pep.i stated if the Mayor wanted to talk bout why Mr.,
Sullivan was not here at the iast meeting perhaps it should be at
an executive session as it involves a personnel matter that I ain't:
think should be made public. It would be embarrassing to some
parties. Your brother can come into the executive session.
Mayor Taylor stated that his brother told him that because
he was not present at the last: meeting he was docked a weeks pay.
Mr. Tri.pepi stated that was not true. That was one of the
items on there. He stated that we can discuss this publicly or
we can go in the back-room in Executive Session as it involves a
personnel matter.
Mayor Taylor stated that he did not think it was necessary
then.
Councilman Imperial stated that being you brought up one of
our employees being docked for a weeks pay maybe we should go into
Executive Session,
Mayor Taylor stated that although he was Mayor he was not
even troubled, wash't consulted about; this.
Mr. T:ripepi stated "about; the employee being docked.".
Mayor Taylor stated "yes''
Mr. Tri_pepi staged that was because he was not docked for
the reason stated.
Councilman Imperial requested an Executive Session.
Mayor Taylor staged that he would go along with that. Let's
have it and find out what did happen.
The City Council, recessed for an Executive Session.
The City Council reconvened.
Mayor Taylor requested that We City Attorney report on the
action.
Robert Kress, City Attorney, stated that a, Personnel session
was held and no action was taken.
VI, MATTERS FROM OFFICIALS

8. Councilman Hunter commented on a, lett:egwh:ich was re-

Rosemead received a refund for Insurance in the amount of $60,163,

80% of the premium paid which means the Insurance Liability costs.
the City 2Q$ of what was posted. This was 'the highest refund of

VII. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS
A. Roberta Trujillo, 2339 Kel.burn, commented that she was
not surprised at: the City Attorney's findings regarding Mr. IIunter's
campaign literature:, and Council policy. She :felt that he had

would do it in a certain way, and inquired if other Councilmembers

and who made the calls.
Roberta Trujillo stated that she could give two names, but.
she is not blaming staff because a policy decision was not ma.de.
In the :future this could be avoided if things are clear aL the
outset.
Councilman Hunter stated that using the phone number of City
Hall to cheek on his record was wrong and he should not have done
it, but the first phone number said "home" the second said "office"
Councilman blunter questioned Mrs. `Lruji.l_1-o regarding the expendi-
tures of flights at tn.x payers expense of her children if she
should be re-elected.
R.oberta. Trujillo stated that if the record were checked
more clearly it would disclose that those flights which her.
Children had taken with her had been reimbursed as wives trans-
portation expenses are reimbursed.
