Addressing the City'Council were: Michael Scadifio, representing the Masi family, thanked staff for the great report and felt it was very thorough. He stated that philosophically they agreed with staff's recommendation. He stated they are anxious to get the Cowgirl torn down, which would be within a few weeks. He added they are interested in continuing the history of this location. He stated they are requesting they be allowed to spend the $10,000.00 on sculpture for a piazza which would be on the Masi Family site, instead of spending the money as staff was requesting for the Chaffey-Garcia House. He added that staff was requesting an engineer be present when removing the decorative parapet on the front, and felt a skillful mason could handle this along with a City Engineer. He stated with regards to the $5,000.00 to oral history, he added the Masi Family would like to see Jennie Masi interviewed, who is 82 years old. He stated they would like to keep all of the costs as low as possible so they can put any extra money back into the site. Jack Masi stated his parents purchased this site in 1951 and continued to give further information about the history of the site. He also talked about the piazza they wanted to construct. He stated they would like to put money into a piazza instead of donating it to the Chaffey-Garcia House. Councilmember Alexander asked if he would retain ownership of the property. (24) City Council Minutes September 18, 1991 Page 8 Mr. Masi stated yes. There being no further response, the public hearing was closed. Councilmember Buquet stated he felt the City should work with the Masi's, but did not want it to sit there and get loaded with graffiti. He also agreed with the triggering mechanism as recommended by staff. Councilmember Alexander stated he would like to see the City continue the team effort with the Masi's. Mayor Stout felt the facade was salvageable, and that if it could be, then so be it. He felt if it could not be salvaged, then some type of replica should be built in its place. He felt the suggestions of the $10,000.00 and $5,000.00 should be kept as is. He felt the building should be removed. Councilmember Williams agreed with the $10,000.00 to be used for the museum and felt the museum was vital. She also agreed with the process for the oral interviews. She felt the building should come down as soon as possible. Councilmember Wright stated she agreed with most everything that has been mentioned, but felt there should be a way to require that the City be involved in some sort of use of the money on the site because she felt there should be a well-done historical memorialization on this site, and wondered if there could be something created in an agreement for this. She stated she understood from them that they were probably going to put in more than the $10,000.00, and felt it would be appropriate to agree to something if they would go back to the original HPC recommendation of $25,000.00 output and do some kind of memorialization on the site which would require City approval. She stated she agreed with the oral history program and felt a compromise could be made if Jack Masi would give an interview along with Jennie Masi, and then the amount for the oral history interviews could be reduced to $2,500.00. Andrew Arczynski, Deputy City Attorney, stated there is the opportunity to change the Resolution as the process goes along. Mayor Stout suggested Item 3 be modified to eliminate the structural engineer. Larry Henderson, Principal Planner, suggested if the engineer is eliminated, there be drawings of the facade made so that it could be reconstructed if something happens to it.

COUNCIL BUSINESS (29) Mayor Stout asked if all Councilmembers had had the opportunity to review the report that he and Councilmember Wright had prepared in August regarding this matter.

Motion carried unanimously, 5- 0. , , , , , , I2. DISCUSSION OF STATUS OF VICTORIA LAKES PROJECT Staff report presented by Rick Gomez, Community Development Director. (0203-05 PLAN DEVEL) (0701-01 APOINT CC) Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public comments. Addressing the City Council was: Rosey McCobb stated her biggest concern and also that of the residents that live in the Victoria Groves community was the increase in their assessment. She felt the residents near to the Lakes project would benefit by that project, but did not necessarily feel it would benefit her area because they were not close enough to it. She asked that the Victoria residents be kept informed of what is going on with the Lakes project. Mayor Stout stated when Victoria was originally planned there was a goal to set up a certain number of park acreage per thousand residents. He added in order to fulfill that requirement, the William Lyon Company has to construct, in this location, 25 acres of either combination lakes/parks or just park land. He stated they have waited until the last "village" to build the largest park for a total of 25 acres. It stated in the original concept all of the park land would have been spread equally if it had been just normal park land of 25 acres so that the assessments in the Groves area would have been equal to that in the Lakes area. He stated by having this a park/lake type of concept you can distinguish it from a normal park and say it has a lot of benefit the closer you are to the lake. He stated obviously the people closer to the lake will have more benefit. He felt this was an improvement to the assessment situation. Councilmember Wright asked Ms. McCobb if when she purchased her home in Victoria, was she aware she would be assessed additionally for future parks. Ms. McCobb stated it was presented to the homeowners that they would pay assessments because they did have added land in the paseos and the parks and that they had the proximity of the Victoria Groves Park to their home. She stated when she bought she did not feel it was clearly presented to them that the parks were City/public parks, and stated it was presented to them that they were the residents' parks in their area. She stated this was a misunderstanding as to what this truly meant. She stated they were told there were assessments, that there were no association fees, but it was not explained how they would increase as additional parks were built. Councilmember Wright asked if when they were given the whole picture as to what their taxes would be for the year, was it indicated that those assessments would increase as amenities developed. City Council Minutes September 18, 1991 Page 13 Ms. McCobb stated it was presented that they did have assessments, and that nothing was explained that the assessments would increase. There being no further response, Mayor Stout closed the public comments. Councilmember Wright stated she placed this on the agenda because the City Council has not heard about this project since Deborah Brown left the Council, and felt the current Council should be kept informed. She stated she wanted the public to have the opportunity to express themselves about this before the project is at the "point of no return." She added Ms. McCobb's comments about the assessment increases were of concern to her. Mayor Stout suggested the Lakes Subcommittee be re-established because it had not been in existence since Deborah Brown had left the Council. Councilmember Buquet suggested Councilmember Williams join him in the Subcommittee. MOTION: Moved by Alexander, seconded by Stout to receive and file the report and for the Subcommittee of Buquet and Williams to continue working on this project and keep the entire Council updated. Motion carried unanimously, 5-0. Item F3 was heard at this time, but the minutes will remain in agenda order. I3.

Mayor Stout advised that there would be a public hearing on this matter at the November 6, 1991 meeting. There being no further response, Mayor Stout closed the public comments.
