TRANSITIONAL HOUSING FOR THE HOMELESS — ADDRESS The City Manager reported that at the last meeting , Council had indicated conceptual endorsement of a transitional housing project for homeless families through conversion of the Empire Inn Motel . He stated the Housing Authority had asked Council for the endorsement and written evidence that such a land use would be consistent with the General Plan, local zoning and EIR requirements. He continued that this documentation was requested in order to submit a grant application to HUD for federal funding and clarified that without the grant , there would be no project . Mr . Windsor indicated that , as a result of concerned public input , the matter had been placed back on Council' s agenda to CC5/22/90 2 ascertain whether Council desires to reconsider- the issue by scheduling a "noticed" hearing ; which legally takes a minimum of sixteen days. The City Manager added that reconsideration of the item would not affect the Housing Authority ' s grant submittal ; as it had been made the previous day. For the benefit of all present , the City Manager explained that should the project proceed to the stage of actual plan submittal for the conversion of the existing Empire Motel , a Conditional Use Permit would be required , thus necessitating a notice public hearing before the Planning Commission. He expanded on the significance of a CUP hearing and stated that if the grant application is successful , there will be ample opportunity for public input before a decision is made by the Planning Commission. Mr . Windsor urged the Council and public to wait until the results of the request for grant funds has been received before holding such a hearing . In response to a question from Councilwoman Mackey, Mr . Windsor clarified that the grant application went forward without the Council ' s letter of endorsement . Lengthy Council discussion followed . The City Manager reiterated that any public hearing would be premature until HUD announces if it will fund the project . He explained that if the grant is approved , the matter will be treated as a land use issue and all neighbors within 300 feet will be notified . Councilman Lilley expressed concern regarding the basis for holding a public hearing . He stated that if, because of density, the project becomes a land use matter , it would require a CUP hearing . He noted that if the proposed use does not require a CUP, he could see no need for a hearing . Mr . Lilley stressed that he was not in support of setting a public hearing simply because it involves provisions for the City to address the needs of the homeless. Mayor Dexter concurred. Council consensus was in support of the City Manager ' s recommendation. Councilwoman Borgeson announced that the public can address their elected officials anytime on any subject and urged them to do so . The City Manager emphasized that there currently is no project , only a concept . He stated that staff agrees that a CUP is called for because of the nature of the project . Mr . Windsor reported that he had received questions from the public as to what kind of authority the City would have if the project did not live up to expectations and explained that the CUP gives the City control if conditions are violated . CC5/22/90 3 0 0 In addition, the City Manager commented that if public hearing is held , the applicants would first be asked to come forward and make a presentation. A description of the project would be given and an explanation of how the Housing Authority, the Women ' s Shelter , EOC and the County Social Services Department inter- relate, what roles they each will play and how the project will affect Atascadero . He continued that at that time all of Council ' s questions and concerns of the public would be addressed and reiterated that any public hearing held prior to approval of the grant would be premature. Additional discussion followed . MOTION: By Councilwoman Mackey and seconded by Councilman Lilley that the City Council reaffirm the approval of the concept of the grant application to the Housing Authority; unanimously passed by roll call vote. MOTION: By Mayor Dexter and seconded by Councilwoman Borgeson that at such time as HUD approves the grant for transitional housing within the City of Atascadero at the Empire Motel Inn location, a Conditional Use Permit will be required as part of that application with all necessary public hearings held thereto ; motion unanimously carried by roll call vote. Continuing with discussion out of sequence, Council moved to the following regular business item: C-1 . RESOLUTION NO. 59-90 — EXPRESSING SUPPORT OF "PUBLIC SCRU— TINY OF UNSAFE CONDITIONS AT ATASCADERO STATE HOSPITAL" Mayor Dexter called upon Mr . Jay Salter , Associated Unions Chairperson, to present the resolution. Mr . Salter gave background and stated that he was looking forward to discussion.

Salter responded that he did not , if Council so desired , and answered additional questions. In addition, the Union spokesperson stated that modifications to the resolution would be acceptable as long as the employees of Atascadero State Hospital (ASH) could have a voice of support in requesting a forthright look into safety problems at the hospital .

Carol Lee Chubb , 4250 Tampico , asked Council to give endorsement to the Union ' s request for investigation of safety conditions at ASH. Randy Blackwell , employee of ASH, spoke in favor of the resolution urging public awareness and participation. Mr . Salter noted the attendance of ASH management who were also present to speak on the matter . Jon DeMorales, Clinical Administrator of ASH, stated that if the purpose of the resolution is to investigate safety practices at ASH, management does not support it ; as the process is already underway. He reported that a thorough safety study has been completed by consultants retained by the Department of Mental Health and recommendations have not yet been implemented . He continued that , in addition, an investigation by OSHA is on- going and explained that findings have not yet been issued . Mr . DeMorales stated that if the purpose of the resolution is to improve staffing , management shares some common ground . He suggested that a more effective way of meeting staffing needs could be done by influencing the expediting of a complete staffing needs survey and budget process to fund any recommendations stemming from any increases in staff. Linda Wilkes, 9325 Carmelita Avenue, addressed Council indicating that she was the Health and Safety Officer at ASH and as such is involved in many on-going programs dealing with operations and insuring safe practices. She debated recent media coverage that management has a lack of responsiveness and outlined the measures taken following the recent murder of a hospital employee. Ms. Wilkes reiterated the need for a staffing survey and funding for its ' implementation. Mr . Salter , in closing , stated that he was pleased management came forward recognizing that the hospital is short-staffed . He urged Council once more to pass the resolution. Council discussion followed regarding the language of the resolution. In response to questions from Council , Mr . DeMorales stated that management would encourage Council to support a staffing needs survey and would not object to the passing of the resolution for the purpose of making the concerns of the community known to the Governor .

In response, the City Engineer described criteria for establishing the minimum public road standards and explained that although the roads cannot be brought up to these standards, he would be asking that the roads be as safe, stable and maintenance free as possible. Ms. Okeefe then asked for a status of the roads already constructed and whether there would be any compromises to the safety of the roads. Mr . Luke responded that a clear determination will be made once a thorough survey of the roads has been completed and that the roads will be made as safe as possible, given the existing conditions.

Councilwoman Borgeson asked Mr . Wendt if this process was agreeable. The attorney responded that it was his understanding that the roads were originally constructed to acceptable standards and that he expects to have discussions with the Public Works Department regarding additional work necessary. Bill Barnes, of Atascadero , reported that the roads were constructed to standards in the Gordon Davis Road Agreement , and that City staff inspected the roads at that time.
