Report on Amapoa-Tecorida Drainage Moratorium Mr. Warden reviewed the memo which discussed the moratorium problem and provided several alternate solutions. The Staff recom- mended including the entire drainage area in an assessment district and preparation of a drainage study with cost estimates to establish drainage solutions with costs to be borne by property owners of the assessment district. It was also recommended that the moratorium be retained in its present form until completion of the recommended items. Comments were heard from John Defumo, Roger Algee, Mel Biging, Ed Chidlaw, Frank Balshun, Jack Stinchfield, Shirley Summers, Bert Vangorse, Gary Daniel, and Dave Holton. Many of the speakers were property owners in the area and all favored lifting the moratorium with the City, State or County rectifying the drainage problem. Council members discussed the matter with Mayor Wilkins favoring Alternate #2 of the memo which would rescind the moratorium and simul- taneously adopt development standards to cope with run-off conditions. Councilman Highland felt that the drainage problem still needed to be resolved. Councilman Nelson suggested contacting the State and County to see if they would help correct the drainage problem"since they allegedly had created it. MOTION: Councilman Nelson moved that Council adopt an ordinance which rescinds the moratorium, but simultaneously replace it ' with certain development standards intended to minimize the impacts to individual structures; and to initiate a par- ticipation program to contribute to an area wide solution to the problem; the program to include property owners, adjacent property owners, the State, County and City. The motion was seconded by Councilman Mackey. There was further discussion on the motion with an agreement reached that the motion should be simplified by breaking this motion into separate parts.

Consideration of request for additional custodian and extending lawn maintenance agreement Mr. Warden explained the manning and work levels required for maintenance of the Zoo and Atascadero Lake Park area. In order to allow the three Parks and Zoo maintenance people more time to accom- plish landscaping and preventative maintenance, he suggested extending the lawn maintenance and watering contract to include all City areas. Presently budgeted funds are sufficient to extend this contract for the rest of the fiscal year. ' An additional full-time custodian is aiso being requested. This person will work some weekends and nights and be present to monitor Rotunda Room parties to assure proper clean-up and protection of facilities. Damage to the building facilities and thefts of equipment ' have occurred during weekends or after normal working hours. Exces- sive damage, spillage of food and liquor and general disregard for protecting the facility has occurred during periods of rental for MINUTES - ATASCADERO CITY COUNCIL Regular Meeting April 27 , 1981 Page Four private parties.
