running south of Paso Robles to northern Atascadero. He stated
that there was discussion of reducing the proposed site size from
100 to 125 acres for the campus and the main action taken was to

Robles, Templeton and Atascadero; with the exception of the area
around the Paso Robles Airport. Mr. Engen also reported that nine
candidate sites have been submitted by individuals to the Vice-

PORATION AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY
Councilwoman Borgeson pulled Items B-3 and B-4.
MOTION: By Councilman Lilley, seconded by Councilman Dexter to
approve Consent Calendar Items B-1, 2, 5 & 6; motion
unanimously passed 4:0.
Re: Item #B-3. AWARD OF BID NO. 91-9 FOR PHOTOCOPIER
Councilwoman Borgeson explained that she had pulled this matter
because she had concerns relating to bid specifications for the
photocopier. She indicated that a new machine was asked for and
yet a reconditioned machine had been accepted.
Mark Joseph presented the staff report and provided the basis for
accepting Eastman Kodak's bid. He noted that a representative from
the company was present and available for questions.
Public Comments:
Tito Molfino, Manager of More Office Systems, appealed to the CO
and voiced objection to awarding the copier bid to Eastman Kodak
Company. He stated that he was a resident of the City of
Atascadero and explained that his firm was a locally run and
operated business. Mr. Molfino provided the Council with an in-
depth report on why his firm should be awarded the bid.
Greg Swanson, Eastman Kodak representative, explained the basis for
the bid submitted and noted that remanufactured machines are
marketed exclusively to State and local government accounts due to
overall budget constraints often experienced by these entities. He
reported that all parts are new and that the company guarantees the
machine for seven years. He added that his company would also
guarantee a four-hour response time for service and emphasized that
no other bidder could make that statement.
Additional discussion followed. Mark Joseph responded to
questions from Councilwoman Borgeson regarding enlargement
procedures. Members of the Council shared concern for the
integrity of bid specifications released by the City and Councilman
Lilley suggested that perhaps the City should go out to bid again
with a new set of bid specifications.
MOTION: By Councilman Dexter, seconded by Councilman Lilley to,
CC9/10/91
Page 4
at the request of the Finance Director, award the bid to
purchase a photocopier to Eastman Kodak for the net price
of $14,494.93.
Discussion of the motion: Mayor Shiers pointed out that two
of the thirteen who had submitted proposals have now had
another chance to respond. He remarked that this provided
them with an unfair advantage and suggested that the matter be
re-bid. Councilwoman Borgeson agreed.
Councilmembers Dexter and Lilley also indicated support
and mutually withdrew the motion.
MOTION: By Councilman Lilley, seconded by Councilwoman Borgeson
to reject all bids and put the matter back out to bid
with specifications that are in fact what the City
requires of this particular piece of equipment and to
urge staff to expedite that preference; motion carried
4:0 by roll call vote.
Re: Item #B-4. RESOLUTION NO. 88-91 - DESIGNATING THE CARLTON
HOTEL AS A LOCAL HISTORIC BUILDING
As a related matter, Councilwoman Borgeson asked the Community
Development Director to clarify building code requirements
associated with a building of historic significance. Mr. Engen
explained that the Building Code allows the building official more
latitude in interpreting the code, especially on routine matters.
He emphasized that this discretion is not allowed in areas where
public safety is concerned.
Mayor Shiers pointed out that there are apartments on the second
level of the building and voiced concern for the safety of the
residents. Mr. Engen reported that plans for structural
reinforcement have been submitted which include fire sprinklers and
other basic safety needs. He reiterated that the motivation was
strictly to provide proper latitude in protecting the historic
nature without compromising public safety and pointed out that
there are other hotels in the State that are on the historic
registry.
The City Manager advised that proposed Resolution No. 88-91 should
be amended by changing the year the building was constructed from
1930 to 1929.
Public Comment:
Bob Fielding, 7500 Santa Cruz Road and former Chief Building
Official, reported that he was representing the owner and was
available for questions. He stated that the State Historic Code
CC9/10/91
Page 5
overrules the Building Code and pointed out that the City retains
authority over what is built. He indicated that he, personally,
would not be involved with the project if it were not a good one.
Councilwoman Borgeson remarked that she felt better knowing of his
participation in the proposed development.
MOTION: By Councilman Lilley, seconded by Councilwoman Borgeson
to adopt Resolution No. 88-91, as amended, designating
the Carlton Hotel as an historic building; motion carried
4:0 by roll call vote.
C. HEARINGS/APPEARANCES:
None
D. REGULAR BUSINESS:
1. SKATEBOARDING REGULATIONS
Andy Takata reported that the Parks & Recreation Commission had
recommended that staff be directed to place proposed Ordinance No.
223 on a future City Council agenda for action. In addition, he
pointed out that the 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) did not
include a skateboarding park. He indicated that staff was looking
for direction on the matter.
Mayor Shiers noted that the proposed ordinance prohibits
skateboarding in commercial zones. Mr. Takata remarked that most
residential areas in the community do not have sidewalks.
Public Comments:
Eric Greening, 7365 Valle, compared the dangers associated with
riding a skateboard and those relating to automobile driving. He
stated that he utterly opposed banning skateboarding because it is
a non-polluting form of transportation. He recognized that there
has been some property damage due to misuse of the skateboard and
suggested that skaters be given acceptable guidelines to follow.
In addition, Mr. Greening wondered when the City was going to get
serious about vehicle use in the creeks and on Pine Mountain.
Doug Lewis, 5589 Tunitas, asked how the City expects to handle
those who ride on "roller blades".
Mary Manry, owner of JP's Skate Shop located at 6450 E1 Camino
Real, remarked that she had not been aware that the Council had not
voted for a skateboard facility. She indicated that the matter
should be put to a vote by the people and suggested a community
fund-raising effort might assist with the money needed to construct
CC9/1O/91
Page 6
a skate parka Ms. Manry objected to the proposed ordinance
forbidding skateboarding in commercial areas and pointed out that
skateboards are used by many as transportation. She stated that
signs should be posted to give clear direction to skaters where
skateboards are not allowed and stressed the importance of using
consistent reinforcement. Closing, she reiterated the need for
skate park and suggested a site near the California National Guard
Armory building (located on the corner of Traffic Way and Olmeda) .
Andrea Schulte, Parks &Recreation Commissioner, emphasized that
destruction of property and harassment of pedestrians does occur.
She explained that the Commission recommended the adoption of an
ordinance regulating skateboarding because of the many complaints
received from the public and reported that alternatives for a
skateboard park had been considered, but costs for liability
insurance was found to be astronomical.
----End of Public Testimony----
Council discussion followed. Councilwoman Borgeson objected to the
regulation because it discriminated against skateboarders and
suggested that the City focus on a small skate park (rather than a
larger facility) ; one more economically constructed and insured.
Councilman Lilley asserted that there is not one publicly-owned,
insured skate park in the State. He stated that the City would be
taking on a tremendous risk by creating a facility of this nature.
Councilman Dexter shared concern for downtown merchants who have
experienced damage to their property and supported the concept of
regulating skateboarding to protect the general public.
MOTION: By Councilman Dexter to set for public hearing City
Council action on Ordinance No. 223 Regulations for
Skateboarding, Councilman Lilley seconded the motion.
Discussion of the motion: Mayor Shiers asked the Police Chief
to comment on the proposed ordinance. Chief McHale stated
that he supported the recommendation of the Parks & Recreation
Commission, emphasizing that the City must react to
occurrences and protect the public. He stated that downtown
public streets and parking lots are not appropriate for
skateboarding. In addition, the Police Chief commented that
skateboarders should observe the rules of the road, just like
bicyclists.
Mayor Shiers remarked that he could not support the proposed
ordinance and felt it would be difficult to enforce.
Councilwoman Borgeson concurred and stated that she believed
the ordinance would curtail rights. Councilman Lilley favored
CC9/10/91
Page 7
regulation in commercial areas to protect all concerned.
Mayor Shiers indicated that he believe the proposed ordinance
was more restrictive to skateboarders than to bicycle riders.
Councilman Dexter suggested that by giving staff direction to
bring the matter back to public hearing, it would present an
opportunity to review and revise the language of the
regulations.
Vote on the motion: Motion to set a public hearing for
Council action on Ordinance No. 223, as recommended by
the Parks & Recreation Commission was voted upon:
Councilmembers Dexter and Lilley voted in favor;
Councilwoman Borgeson and Mayor Shiers voted in
opposition = 2:2, no action was taken.
2. PAVILION CHANGE ORDERS
(A) Additional cost related to installing ducting for the air
conditioning and hearing system.
(B) Approximate 30 day delay due to HVAC (heating,
ventilation, air conditioning) design modifications.
The City Manager introduced the matter and asked that a third item
for discussion be added; that being material for the Pavilion roof.
He also pointed out that a closed session of the City Council may
be necessary if the discussion moves to areas of potential
litigation.
Discussion regarding the roof followed. Greg Luke, Public Works
Director, provided the background and staff report. He stated that
the original plan called for a simulated wood shake composition
shingle (Cal-Shake) , but on May 28, 1991, the City Council had
approved Change Order #1 substituting this roofing material with
asphalt roof shingles. Mr. Luke explained that members of the
Friends of the Lake Pavilion were opposed to this form of roofing
material and were recommending a metal roof alternative.
Council questions followed regarding the suggested roofing material
and construction delays the City was already facing. Mr. Luke
indicated that it would take approximately 30 days to manufacture
a metal roof for the Pavilion.
Public Comments:
Sarah Gronstrand, Co-Chairperson for the Friends of the Lake
Pavilion, pointed out that it had already been determined that
there would be a one-month delay and appealed to the Council to
give the Pavilion a more elegant roof than one consisting of
asphalt roofing material. She stated the Pavilion committee had
CC9/10/91
Page 8
been in support of going back to the original "Cal-Shake", but was
told that it would now cost much more than the original bid and
that the simulated wood shingles may not hold up to freezing
temperatures anyway. Ms. Gronstrand explained that the committee
was now asking the Council to consider a metal roof similar to what
is on Dr. Robert Cheung' s building located at 7548 Morro Road, in
Atascadero.
Lon Allan, member of the Friends of the Lake Pavilion, explained
that the committee's intention was not an 1111th-hour" request, but
one that had begun three months earlier. He indicated that the
committee was willing to pay for the difference, adding that
composition shingles would not be suitable on the Pavilion.
Barbara Butz, member of the Friends of the Lake Pavilion, also
expressed support for upgrading the roofing materials.
The City Treasurer mentioned that noise may be a factor if a metal
roof is used.
----End of Public Testimony----
Brief Council discussion followed and individual comments were in
support of the alternative suggested by the Friends of the Lake
Pavilion committee members.
The Public Works Director reported that staff has been diligently
trying to get back the original price on the "Cal-Shake" and
assured Council that staff would ensure that any potential
alternative selected would meet all criteria for fire retardation,
freeze-resistence, insulation, etc. He estimated that the process
would take approximately 30 days; but added that he could not
guarantee it.
By Council consensus, staff was directed to expediently
proceed with an appropriate metal roof for the Lake Park
Pavilion.
Discussion then continued regarding Items (A) and (B) concerning
change orders on the Pavilion. Councilman Lilley pointed out that
the contractor has not formally presented change orders. Greg Luke
explained that the changes are necessary and reported that the City
is moving forward to make them despite the fact that it is
functioning under "disputed work" (work being completed without
settlement of cost having been reached) .
The City Attorney advised the Council that the statute of
limitations for breach of contract is four years. He said that
there was no need to act immediately and suggested that if it' s the
consensus of the Council, staff can monitor the situation and make
CC9/1O/91
Page 9
a recommendation at the end,-of the contract term. He added that by
the time the notice of completion is filed, staff will know what
damages there are, if any.
Andy Takata, responding to Council comment, noted that the
Community Services Department is currently booking reservations for
the Pavilion, but without guarantee.
There was consensus among the Council to hold action on Items
#D-1 and #D-2.
3. REVISION TO WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT BUDGET
Greg Luke presented the staff report and recommendation to approve
revision of the Wastewater Divisions 1991-92 budget to reflect the
addition of capital projects scheduled for this fiscal year as part
of the Wastewater Division's 5-Year Facilities Improvement Plan.
He explained that this would allow the department to bring forward
some projects slated for the next fiscal year so that they may be
completed during the current year. The Public Works Director
requested that improvements to Cease and Desist Area "F" be deleted
from the list of recommended projects outlined in the agenda
packet.
Mr. Luke also pointed out that although there were no other
anticipated changes in the budget, there was a need to do a revenue
study and suggested that this might be done in four or five years.
MOTION: By Councilwoman Borgeson and seconded by Councilman
Dexter to approve revision of the Wastewater Divisions
1991-92 budget as recommended, deleting Item A; carried
4:0 by roll call vote.
4. PROPOSED REVISION OF STATE SENATE AND CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICTS
Mr. Windsor reported that the San Luis Obispo Area Coordinating
Council has asked that each community in the county, along with the
County Board of Supervisors, contact legislative leaders urging
that our county be included in the coastal-oriented senate and
congressional districts. Councilwoman Borgeson added that the Area
Council supports the inclusion of common geographic interests as a
factor and believes that San Luis Obispo County is more like
Monterey County than it is like the southern part of the State.
By consensus, the City Manager was directed to draft a letter of
support for the mayor's signature.
Public Comment:
Eric Greening asked if there was any contingency plan for if the
CC9/10/91
Page 10
drawing of the district is moved out of the legislature and if so,
would the City have any influence. Councilwoman Borgeson indicated
that she believed it would be a legislative action.
5. AMENDMENT ADDING THE POST-RETIREMENT SURVIVOR BENEFIT TO THE
PUBLIC EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT SYSTEM (PERS) CONTRACT
A. Ordinance No. 231 - Authorizing an amendment to the con-
tract between the City of Atascadero and the Board of
Administration of the California Public Employees Retire-
ment System (Recommend motion to waive reading in full
and approve on first reading by title only)
B. Resolution No. 86-91 —Approving an amendment to the con-
tract between the City of Atascadero and the Board of
Administration of the Public Employees Retirement System
The City Manager reported that Council had already agreed to this
provision by past commitment in a memorandum of understanding two
years ago. He indicated that this was a perfunctory act and one
which would classically appear under the Consent Calendar, but
given the necessity of adopting the amendment by ordinance, it had
appeared under Regular Business.
MOTION: By Councilman Dexter, seconded by Councilwoman Borgeson
to waive the reading in full and approve Ordinance No.
231 by title only; motion passed unanimously.
MOTION: By Councilman Dexter, seconded by Councilman Lilley to
adopt Ordinance No. 231 on first reading; motion carried
4.0.
MOTION: By Councilwoman Borgeson, seconded by Mayor Shiers to
approve Resolution No. 86-91 approving an amendment to
the contract between the City of Atascadero and the Board
Administration of the Public Employees Retirement System;
motion carried 4:0.
6. JOINT PLANNING COMMISSION/CITY COUNCIL STUDY SESSION Con-
sideration of setting date for a joint study session.
Henry Engen reported it would be necessary to change the date
tentatively set for the joint session (Thursday, September 26,
1991) because the Atascadero Mutual Water Company would be holding
a meeting on that date in the Council chambers. He suggested dates
of Thursday, October 10 or Tuesday, October 26.
On consensus, Council agreed to meet in a joint session with
the Planning Commission on Thursday, October 10, 1991 at 7:00
p.m.
CC9/10/91
Page 11
7. ECONOMIC ROUND TABLE REPORT - Confirmation of date and time.
Mr. Windsor noted that the Economic Round Table had requested a
time for presenting to the Council a status report and indicated
that this had been scheduled for 6:00 p.m. on the evening of
Tuesday, September 24; just prior to the regular meeting. Council
agreed to this time and date.
Councilwoman Borgeson asked whether this committee was to continue
on with staff involvement or would, at some point, be taken over by
the Chamber of Commerce. Micki Korba, City Treasurer and member of
the Round Table, remarked that the purpose and charge of the Round
Table was more extensive than what the Chamber of Commerce does.
Mayor Shiers shared concern for the use of City staff time on the
committee. Councilman Lilley suggested that it would be
appropriate to wait for the committee's report before discussing
the matter further.
