B HEARINGS , APPEARANCES AND REPORTS
1 Appearance of North County Contractors Association requesting
adoption of an Appeals Board
Mike Bewsey, a member of the North County Contractors Association ,
As made a presentation on behalf of the Association He stated that they
would like to have an appeals board to hear problems contractors might
have with interpretation of the building code The board would con-
sist of people who have expertise and knowledge in the building field
They do not want to have people on the board who are members of the
NCCA or contractors currently operating in Atascadero
There was considerable discussion regarding this request Council
was not sure it was necessary since the City Council is currently the
appeals board , however , they indicated that they were willing to give
the process a try and put a limit on its existence so that the Council
could review its effectiveness within a specified period of time Mr
Warden stated that an ordinance would have to be enacted to establish
the appeals board and its procedures Also an appeals fee schedule
would have to be established Mr Warden noted that he did not feel
the separate board was necessary at this time , since the current pro-
cedure had not been tested and another layer of hearings could well
slow the process rather than expedite it
Elliott Stephenson spoke in favor of an Appeals Board
MOTION Councilman Nelson moved that Staff be directed to draft
an ordinance to initiate an appeals board and that a provi-
sion be included in the ordinance which would require it to
be reviewed in three years ' time The motion was seconded by
Councilman Highland and unanimously carried

sible for curbs , gutters and sidewalks Mr Warden stated there is

tenance Worker II position with the current Building Maintenance
Worker position being designated as a I Chris Lane , now in the
Building Maintenance Worker position , would be promoted to a BMW II
position This recommendation is because of the City ' s experience
over the last year with this position in that it has required a higher
degree of skill and job performance than originally anticipated
Chris Lane merits this promotion
An additional recommendation is for moving Loren Corson from a
Maintenance Worker I to a Maintenance Worker II position because of
the heavy equipment operation that he is doing Mr Warden recom-
mended that Council approve a transfer of $3 ,791 from reserve to the
appropriate Public Works accounts to support these recommendations
MOTION Councilman Highland moved that Council approve the changes
in the Salary Classification Plan and authorize transfer of
$3 , 971 from reserve to the appropriate Public Works accounts
The motion was seconded by Councilman Mackey and unanimously
carried by roll call vote
2 Consideration of request of City of Santa Maria to support
legislation to allow local governments to have more control
of businesses that sell alcoholic beverages
Mayor Wilkins stated that the cities attending the last Channel
40 Counties Division meeting in Ventura were asked by the City of Santa
Maria to support this resolution Council members discussed the
matter and did not feel that Atascadero had that much of a problem
and , therefore, chose not to take any action at this time
