MI2 YEAR _GET REVIEWS
The City Manager presented the Mid-Year Budget status report and
noted that no major modifications were being requested. He
explained that certain overall adjustments were recommended and
summarized them as salary adjustments, added costs to fund a
water study and supplement General Plan Update E. I .R. costs,
monies to be set aside for public education on recycling and the
reappropriation of encumbrances. Mr. Windsor asked Council to
review these adjustments and give staff direction to prepare the
necessary resolution for adoption.
In addition, the City Manager noted that in March of 1991, the
County would be holding public hearings relating to potential
implementation of S82557. The City, Mr. Windsor reported, could
be faced with approximately $140,000 in County Jail Hooking fees

and Property Tax Administrative fees. He added that County staff
are recommending that the Board of Supervisors adopt these new
charges retroactive to July 11 1990.

himself for questions. Council inquiries followed regarding
revenues, salary negotiations, expenditures for risk management

The City Manager introduced the topic for discussion explaining
that the five-year C. I .P. is a guideline which allows the Council
and community to see what kinds of projects or programs are being
proposed for the future. At this time, Mr. Windsor referred t a

Councilwoman Borgeson referred to the Public Works Director ' s
staff report (2/19/91 Possible use of Gas Tax Funds to Supplement
Assessment Districts) and indicated that she was in support of
Recommendation #1 ( to closely examine regulations on the use of
Gas Tax funds) . The City Manager added that all three
recommendations were of merit and stated that •he was looking for
approval from Council to begin working on them.
Responding to the mayor , Mr. Luke clarified the first three
projects listed under "Bridge Projects" , noting that each should
be read as follows: "the bridge on Monterey Road that crosses
Graves Creek Road ; the Garcia Road bridge that crosses Graves
Creek ; and the Santa Cruz bridge that crosses Graves Creek Road" .
Mr . Windsor added that these projects were at one point high
priority, even with the State who was putting in the bulk of the
funds. Since the earthquake in Santa Cruz , he explained , the
State has removed the funding and it is not known at what point
it will be replaced into the budget .
Mayor Lilley protested that Public Works was asking for policy
direction without giving Council enough data to support the
request. The City Manager proposed conducting a study session in
which the Council could take a look at the C. I .P. and the future
of the community. He added that there were additional matters of
importance Council may wish to address during this session.
Mayor Lilley and Councilwoman Borgeson both expressed support for
a work session to study the C. I .P. Councilwoman Borgeson added
that although she had no problem witti; the list of project
priorities recommended by the Public Works Director , she would
like to have input regarding specifics, i .e. , types of bridges
constructed, etc.
Mr. Luke explained the process of priority ranking and indicated
that staff could provide more detail on each project during a
workshop.
Councilman Dexter remarked that he was agreeable to a study
session. The City Manager asked that the matter be continued
until Councilman Nimmo arrived later in the evening . Council
concurred with the request.
Mr. Windsor also requested that Council add to the scheduled
closed session following the regular meeting an urgency item
relating to the Pavilion bid award.

At 7:00 p.m. , Mayor Lilley convened the regular session. At this
time, he recognized and welcomed Kent Lowe, Scout Master , and his
local Boy Scout Troop #104, who had come to observe.
Mayor Lilley noted that the roll call would remain the same and
asked Councilman Dexter to lead the Pledge of Allegiance.
All present joined in silent prayer and recognition of
sacrifices made by armed forces in the Middle East .
COUNCIL COQ E NTSs
Mayor Lilley acknowledged a letter of appreciation addressed to
the City of Atascadero from Gary J. Bridges, LTC, Department of
the Army, 3rd Battalion stationed in Saudi Arabia. The mayor
read out loud the letter which was written on December 6, 1990
thanking the City staff for the care packages sent to the troops
during the Christmas Holiday season.
Councilwoman Borgeson reported that she had been asked by a
member of the public if the City has a water conservation
program. She announced that there is, in place, a Water
Conservation Task Force and asked the City Manager to give more
information about this group.
Mr. Windsor replied that staff has taken the initiative to begin
gathering data preliminary to making conservation recommendations
to Council . The committee, he reported , is headed by Fire Chief
Mike Hicks and would be working hard to get the information to
Council as quickly as possible. In addition, the City Manager
announced that Atascadero Mutual Water `, Company is going to
participate and share information with the City, and that they
would be conducting an open public hearing early in March.
Councilwoman Borgeson reported that she had received calls from
the community expressing dissatisfaction with the recently
approved rate increase for Wil-Mar Disposal ; and in addition,
concerns relating to the proposed collection bag . Ms. Borgeson
indicated that she would like to accelerate the review of the
rate structure. The City Manager responded that this could be
done and to the benefit of all concerned
Mayor Lilley commented that when he approved the waste collection
rate increase, he expected that Wil-Mar would handle it gently
and revealed that he had received many calls himself. He
stressed that good communication with the public is necessary.
Both Councilman Dexter and Councilman Shiers reported that they,
CC2lc6>9l
Page 4
too , had received similar complaints from the community.
Mr. Windsor acknowledged the presence of Bill Gibbs (Wil-Mar
Disposal ) and remarked that the garbage company would be
extending their office hours to better facilitate services and
added that the City was endeavoring to work closely with Wil-
Mar.
COMMUNITY FORUMt
Doug Lewis, 5589 Tunitas, recounted a recent incident involving
an anonymous complaint made against him to the Fire Department
regarding a controlled burn. Mr . Lewis explained that he had
phoned ahead to ensure that he would be burning on an allowable
day and believed himself to be following the regulations for
backyard burning. He asserted that he was upset that the caller
did not identify him/herself and that the caller was not told
that Mr. Lewis was burning as allowed .
Henry Hank Adams, President of the Atascadero Democratic Club ,
announced that the group would be participating in the local
celebration of Arbor Day by planting a native oak in memory of
Ian McMillian at the Traffic Way Ballfield . Mr. Adams asked if
Council would designate the tree as a heritage tree. The City
Manager assured him that staff would do the right thing.
Whitey Thorpe, Santa Ynez resident, congratulated the Boy Scout
Troop for observing the City Council meeting .

the resolution was to provide guidance for the committee.
Councilwoman Borgeson thanked staff for using great care and
craftsmanship in preparing the resolution, and stated that she
was supportive of forming the Round Table. She indicated ,
however, that she had a problem with putting the committee in
place by resolution because it may appear to be of similar
standing to the Planning Commission.

would meet only as necessary to address issues. Henry Engen
clarified that the Planning Commission and other formal advisory
bodies are established by ordinance and specific appointments
are made by resolution.
