of this item.
Michael Orduno, Southern California Edison, stated that he is representing the property
owner and Mr. Linn, the developer.
Councilman Taylor stated that he is concerned with the dust and dirt along the property
line affecting the residents.
Mr. Orduno responded that the development of an auto sales dealership will alleviate the
majority of those problems, especially with the pollen and weed abatement complaints that they
have been receiving.
Councilman Taylor stated that he is not against the project, but is concerned with the
noise level and he asked if the residents are aware of what will be occurring.
Mr. Orduno responded that he met with the homeowners and the president of the
homeowners association and received their approval for the project
Councilman Taylor asked what their reaction is to the noise of the cars being driven
around the lot seven days a week.
Mr. Orduno responded that there will not be a lot of cars in that area as the cars will be
concentrated in the front of the lot. The back portion will be mainly for storage of vehicles.

Councilman Bruesch verified that it will be a used car lot and requested that a condition
be added that dust control is maintained on the back gravel lot.
Mr. Orduno responded that SCE will also require that the soil base be packed to
withstand a 40-ton truck.
Councilman Taylor asked what areas will be landscaped with turf as listed in the
Conditions of Approval.
Mr. Orduno responded that the front area and areas near residences will be landscaped, in
keeping with the same type of plants as is in the area, and it will also serve as a screen.
Councilman Imperial asked if this type of usage for that property should be allowed
considering the extensive Conditions of Approval.
Councilman Taylor stated that he understands Councilman Imperial's concerns, but this
will now become a usable piece of property if it does not annoy the neighbors. Mr. Taylor stated
that should there be any problems in the future, mitigating measures can be enacted if necessary.
Juan Nunez, 2702 Del Mar, Rosemead, stated that the landscape needs to be maintained
as well.

D. URGENCY ORDINANCE NO. 808 - AMENDING THE ROSEMEAD
MUNICIPAL CODE BY DELETING THE REQUIREMENT OF CURB,
GUTTER, AND SIDEWALK INSTALLATION FOR CONSTRUCTION
PROJECTS
Councilman Taylor asked what transpired to bring this item up?
Frank Tripepi, City Manager, responded that only curb and gutters exist throughout the
community. The City adopted the sidewalk ordinance many years ago at which time the Council
aggressively pursued the installation of sidewalks in certain areas. Mr. Tripepi continued that if
the Council does not want to continue to vigorously pursue the installation of sidewalks with
individual homeowners, not subdivisions or large projects, the ordinance tonight will no longer
require the installation of sidewalks. Mr. Tripepi stated that there are many neighborhoods that
are not major routes to schools, not heavily traveled by pedestrians, and the people that live on
those streets may not want sidewalks and want to maintain their green area. Mr. Tripepi
CCREGMTG:6.13-00
Page n5
explained that there are three people appealing a Planning Commission decision that would
require them to install sidewalks.
Councilman Taylor stated for the record that one of the people appealing that decision is
his son.
Mr. Tripepi added for the record, that Councilman Taylor did not ask him to put this item
on the agenda.
Councilman Taylor stated that there are dozens of homes within Vane, Ellis Lane and
Marshall area that have built major additions without putting in sidewalks. Councilman Taylor
stated that wants to ensure that there are still provisions requiring the installation of sidewalks on
large developments. Mr. Taylor stated that there are homeowners who deserve the sidewalk
waiver as they maintain nice well-kept properties.
Mr. Tripepi stated that there are provisions in the parcel map subdivisions that require, as
a condition of approval, full installation of public improvements, which includes sidewalks.
Councilman Bruesch asked if the sidewalk threshold amount should be raised?
Mr. Tripepi stated that some residents do not want a sidewalk, and some may borrow
enough money to do improvements and by requiring them to build a sidewalk also might over
burden them. Mr. Tripepi stated again, that large projects will still have sidewalks required as
part of the development procedure.
Councilman Bruesch stated that the sidewalk requirement is for safety and he does not
like to see people walking in the gutters. Mr. Bruesch continued that if the threshold was raised
to $40,000 or $50,000 then that would eliminate those appeals.
Councilman Taylor responded that this does not change the nice areas that do not need
sidewalks and that most of them are cul-de-sacs or not main thoroughfares, and are very well
kept.
MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM IMPERIAL, SECOND BY COUNCILMAN
VASQUEZ that the Council waive reading in full and adopt Ordinance No. 808. Vote resulted:
Yes:
Taylor, Clark, Vasquez, Imperial
No:
Bruesch
Absent:
None
Abstain:
None
The Mayor declared said motion duly carried and so ordered.
Councilman Bruesch stated that he feels that the requirement of sidewalks in large
developments is a safety issue.
E. RESOLUTION NO. 2000-30 - SUPPORTING THE DEVELOPMENT OF
THE EATON VILLAGE SHOPPING CENTER JOINTLY WITH THE
CITY OF EL MONTE
MOTION BY COUNCILMAN BRUESCH, SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM
IMPERIAL that the Council adopt Resolution No. 2000-30. Before vote resulted, more
conversation ensued.
Councilman Taylor asked if any agreement has been forthcoming regarding the 50-50
share of sales tax for this project? Mr. Taylor stated that he is going to Abstain as the developer
is pushing the issue, but so far they have not come forth with anything.

Mr. Tripepi stated no agreement has been received yet; however, the project is still a long
way off and that this resolution does not make any financial commitments, but that both cities
are in agreement with the concept of the project and will work toward the completion of it.

V. MATTERS FOR DISCUSSION AND ACTION
A. ASSESSMENT OF TEMPLE CITY BOULEVARD TRUCK ROUTE
Frank Tripepi, City Manager, stated that Commissioner Ruiz has expressed concerns with
noise and air pollution caused by truck travel on Temple City Boulevard. Mr. Tripepi explained
that research was conducted about the feasibility of removing of a long-standing truck route from
a State Highway and that Sgt. Wallace met with Judge Van Dusen. Judge Van Dusen said that
he would not uphold any citations issued to truck drivers that use Temple City Boulevard as a
truck route. Mr. Tripepi suggested to Commissioner Ruiz that the truck route signs be removed
and that he would meet with the City Manager of El Monte to ask the major companies in his
community to notify their drivers to use either Santa Anita or Rosemead Boulevard.
CCREGMTG:6.13-00

•
Councilman Taylor requested an explanation of Judge Van Dusen's comments.
Sgt. Wayne Wallace, Temple Station, stated that he spoke with Judge Van Dusen at Rio
Hondo Courthouse, and based on existing ordinances and laws, there is nothing to preclude
trucks from using that route and that enforceability would be difficult. Judge Van Dusen
explained that the ordinance gives truckers with a bill of lading the right to pick up goods and
make deliveries, etc.
Councilman Taylor asked how does a City establish a "No Truck Route"?
Joanne Itagaki, Traffic Engineer, stated that the City of Montebello and Chino have
changed their truck routes. The City of Montebello did theirs through a six-month period basis
by notifying businesses along the street; however, the street (Greenwood) is not a freeway off-
ramp but in the interior of the City. The City of Chino has posted weight limit signs and has an
agreement with the truckers to use a designated off-ramp for deliveries to their industrial area.
Councilman Taylor stated that he's lived one block from Temple City Boulevard for 38
years and has not heard any complaints.
Councilman Bruesch confirmed that if a truck driver is cited the judge will dismiss the
citation.
Ms. Itagaki explained that the Judge is probably referring to the Vehicle Code that states
that trucks are allowed the most direct route to their destination.
Councilman Taylor stated that this would be wasting a lot of resources for nil results and
requested that this item be deferred for more information from Montebello and Chino.
At this time Mayor Clark announced that she has three requests to speak on item III.D,
the Urgency Ordinance deleting the curb, gutter and sidewalk requirements, and apologized for
not calling them earlier, but they can address the Council at this time if they wish.
Tatiane Kennard, 3602 Vane Avenue, Rosemead, stated that she was treated very rudely
at the Planning Commission Meeting of June 5a . Ms. Kennard stated that she was not allowed to
speak on her item, and was told to file an appeal if she did not agree with their decision.
Robert Kress, City Attorney, explained that there was some confusion at that meeting
partly from the Assistant City Attorney. Mr. Kress stated that the Attorney mistakenly ruled that
it was not a public hearing. Mr. Kress concluded that the appeal process allows a person to
speak, and that an error was made at that meeting, and steps have been taken to ensure that that
will not happen again.
Councilman Taylor requested the tapes from the two meetings regarding this sidewalk
issue. Mr. Taylor stated that at Council meetings there are two times set aside for anyone
wishing to address the Council.
Mayor Clark assured Ms. Kennard that this matter will be looked into.
At this time, the discussion of item V.A. continued.
Victor Ruiz, Traffic Commissioner, 9703 Olney Street, stated that this item has been on-
going for some time with the initial problem being noise and the use ofjake breaks. Mr. Ruiz
continued that the residents are also concerned with pollution such as dust and diesel fuel. Mr.
Ruiz stated that the majority of trucks exiting Temple City Boulevard are going to El Monte and
that a dialogue with the City Manager of El Monte, as Mr. Tripepi suggested, will not work.
What is needed is a change in ordinance.
Councilman Bruesch asked if the ordinance is changed to remove the truck route portion
from it, does that allow the Judge to uphold the citations issued?
CCREGMTG:6.13-00
Page a8
Robert Kress, City Attorney, responded that it would not, as that was the scenario
explained to Judge Van Dusen by Sgt. Wallace.
Mr. Ruiz disagreed with that response. Mr. Ruiz continued that the issue is noise
pollution and the residents are here tonight to address the Council.
Councilman Bruesch stated that he does not want to see the City's efforts, money and
time going into something ineffective, and that he needs to know exactly what the Judge said.
Sgt. Wallace stated that he explained the existing ordinance to the Judge, which allows
trucks to use Temple City Boulevard at any time. Sgt. Wallace then asked the Judge what the
City's option would be if the truck route was closed. Sgt. Wallace stated that the Judge's reply
was that it still would not change anything.
Mr. Kress clarified that the ordinance could be amended to delete the item in the
Municipal Code referring to this street and leave the rest of the truck routes intact.
Ernest Larson, 3850 N. Ellis Lane, Rosemead, stated that he lives adjacent to Temple
City Boulevard and that trucks exit at all hours using their jake breaks. Mr. Larson continued
that trucks stop and park by his yard with their engines running and emitting fumes. Mr. Larson
pointed out that there are other streets that the truckers could use that are non-residential.
Esthela Gallegos, 9709 Olney, Rosemead, was unable to stay and left a letter read by
Desiree Ruiz. Ms. Gallegos wrote that they are long-time residents of Rosemead and now fear
that the safety and convenience of living there is slipping away due to the amount of heavy truck
traffic getting off and on the freeway all hours of the day and night. Ms. Gallegos is also
concerned with the exhaust and what type of cargo the trucks are carrying, and that the majority
of destinations are in El Monte.
Silvia Guerrero, 3844 Ellis Lane, Rosemead, stated that she is concerned with the loud
noise.
Lynn Sapp, 3844 Ellis Lane, Rosemead, stated that he is concerned with the noise,
especially with the jake brakes at 4:00 a.m., trucks idling, and poor visibility at intersections.
Mr. Sapp explained that Montebello blocked Finley Avenue altogether from any vehicle making
a right turn after exiting the freeway, that vehicles have to go the major street.
Councilman Bruesch suggested that this item be deferred pending furthur information
and clarification on Sections 1031 and 1036 of the Public Utilities Code and the section of the
code that refers to truck being exempt if picking up and delivering goods used in repairs. Mr.
Bruesch stated if the ordinance needs to be rewritten would the court then look at it as a
prosecutable offense. Mr. Bruesch stated that those changes should be worked out between the
City and the Court.
Councilman Taylor requested that this item be deferred for staff reports and further
information. Mr. Taylor asked for a report on how Chino and Montebello enforced their no truck
routes and where the streets are.
Mayor Pro Tem Imperial stated there are more people now and more people cause more
traffic problems. Mr. Imperial asked that that be taken into consideration also.
Holly Knapp, Traffic Commissioner, asked if the Council received verbatim minutes
from the Traffic Commission's May 4s' meeting.
Mr. Tripepi stated that tapes from that meeting would be made for the Council.
Ms. Knapp stated that the off ramp at Temple City Boulevard is a terrible turnoff for
trucks.
There being no further discussion, this item was deferred.

B. REQUEST BY CONSOLIDATED DISPOSAL SERVICE, INC. TO
MODIFY FIELD OFFICE HOURS
Richard Fierro, Consolidated Disposal Services, stated that walk-in traffic at the
Rosemead office has been declining and requested a reduction in office hours to close on
Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. Mr. Fierro stated that a drop box will be placed at the door to
allow residents to deposit their payments. Mr. Fierro explained that when the billing goes out,
which is cyclical, that is when the bulk of people come into the office for payment. The office
will be open Monday through Friday during that two-week period of time, or three weeks if
necessary.
MOTION BY COUNCILMAN TAYLOR, SECOND BY COUNCILMAN BRUESCH
that the Council approve the modification of the field office hours. Before vote could result,
more conversation ensued.
Mayor Pro Tern Imperial stated that he is willing to approve this request, but asked that a
phone be installed outside of their office for customers to call directly to Consolidated
headquarters when the field office is closed.
Mr. Fierro stated that once approval is granted, a letter will be mailed to all residents
notifying them of the new hours, a notice will be placed in the Chamber newsletter and a notice
posted outside of their field office.
Mayor Clark requested that Mr. Fierro look into the feasibility of installing a direct line.
Councilman Taylor called for the question.
Motion is amended to include the feasibility of installing a direct phone line to
Consolidated headquarters.
Vote resulted:
Yes:
Bruesch, Taylor, Clark, Vasquez, Imperial
No:
None
Absent:
None
