Approval to execute a Real Property Improvement Contract and Lien Agreement from Reed Gibbons and Cathryn Gibbons, for the Deferred Construction of Sidewalk and Street Trees adjacent to 8211 Cornwall Avenue, located east of Etiwanda Avenue, south of Foothill Boulevard. Jim Frost, City Treasurer, asked that the adoption of the Resolution take place for this item, but asked that staff withhold filing of the lien until such time as Council has had a chance to review the ramification of Ordinance 58. He felt since this Ordinance was approved when the City was newly incorporated, that this item does not fit into the intent of Ordinance 58. He hoped that the Council would agree that this does not make sense, and with the withholding of the lien it would save both the City and homeowner the expense of having it removed at some future date. He asked that the Council allow staff to give them a review of how this Ordinance works and where it does not and that this be discussed further. Joe O'Neil, City Engineer, stated he has talked with Mr. Frost before and felt there may be some equity with this situation, but he stated that the Ordinance does require that before building permit be issued that this process be in place. James Markman, City Attorney, stated staff can hold the agreement and not record it, but felt it should still be executed before the building permit is issued. He stated he agreed with Mr. Frost to investigate this further.
