Jackie Bolda, 11849 Mt. Gunnison Court, requested the City Council grant
Commission applicants one week's notice prior to an interview and suggested

which would go along with the application. It was also her opinion that
the entire City Council should conduct the interviews for Commissioners.

the City of Rancho Cucamonga is using. It was her opinion that
Councilmember Williams should apologize for her actions.

Addressing the City Council was:
John Mannerino, 9333 Base Line, Suite 110, Rancho Cucamonga, stated that
he had researched to see if there were any aerial photos in the possession
of the City for this area and stated there were not, but that he had taken
the liberty to have a survey done of the areas of the commercial centers
in the vicinity of 19th and Carnelian, 19th and Archibald, Carnelian and
Base Line, and Base Line and Archibald representing commercial activity
north of Foothill and west of Haven, and reported the information he had
obtained about these centers. He stated he did not ~hink Sam's Place was
in the middle of a residential area, that it was in a commercial area.
He added that since the Pellegrino's had taken over this business in
March, there have not been complaints filed against this establishment.
There being no further response, the public hearing was closed.

Councilmember Williams stated she was present the first time this matter came
before the City Council and had heard all the comments made. She commented she
had spoke with the residents on Topaz Street and that they were in favor of this
establishment. She added she felt Sam's Place deserved a six month trial period
with extended hours, though she did not feel it was an appropriate use for the
neighborhood/commercial area, but stated that was not the question.
MOTION: Moved by Stout, seconded by Wright to grant the appeal, denying the
extension of hours.
Councilmember Alexander asked for Mayor Stout to give details of what had
occurred with this business while he was on the Planning Commission.
Mayor Stout proceeded informing the Council with this information and added he
has not changed his mind about this issue.
Councilmember Wright stated the business could be sold to someone else, and it
might not be the good place that Sam's Place is.
Mayor Stout stated he did not feel this kind of establishment should be located
in this type of center for this particular area..
John Mannerino asked if he could address the Council again, stating that
previously it was the previous owner of the business that created the
problem and that they did not care enough to control the crowd, that their
only concern was to generate revenue.
Councilmember Buquet stated he felt it would be fair to grant Mr. Pellegrino the
opportunity for the six month trial basis as long as the owner met the
conditions of the Planning Commission and conducted this extension in good
faith.
Mayor Stout stated that Mr. Pellegrino knew when he bought the business what the
hours were and that he is requesting that the restriction be lifted.
Motion carried, 3-2 (Willjams, Buquet no) which would grant the appeal.
Ralph Hanson, Assistant City Attorney, stated a Resolution would come back at
the next meeting in order for the Council to make this action official.

F2. CONSIDERATION OF TIMES MIRROR'S APPLICATION FOR A CABLE TELEVISION

Page 11
Ralph Hanson, Assistant City Attorney, stated that the Council will recess
pursuant to California Government Code Section 54956.9(b)1 concerning a matter
whether this is significant exposure to potential litigation. He stated this
would be memorialized in a confidential memorandum to be given to the City
Clerk, and would become public after the exposure to litigation has passed.
******
The Council recessed to Executive Session at 7:37 p.m. and reconvened at 8:07
p.m.
Jack Lain, City Manager, introduced Carl Pilnick, the City's cable consultant.
Carl Pilnick presented an introduction to Times Mirror's application for a cable
television franchise.
Mayor Stout stated he was in receipt of correspondence from one or more
attorneys who are questioning the legality of what the City is doing, who were
stating they are not prepared tonight and were requesting that this item be
continued, and were making allegations regarding the noticing process. He asked
for Ralph Hanson, Assistant City Attorney, to comment on this.
Ralph Hanson, Assistant City Attorney, stated that what was before the City
Council were several letters from both existing cable companies and stated the
substance of their argument as to the procedures for lack of notice to schedule
the hearings and also that this denied these companies the opportunity to
prepare information to present to the Council and that they have requested the
City not take action. He stated the City has schedule two public hearings and
there has been public notice, but it would be his recommendation to further
investigate this and give the opponents every opportunity they desire to address
the City Council. It was his suggestion that this public hearing be continued
to some time in December, because as Mr. Pilnick stated there are benefits to
taking action on this in 1990. He stated he felt the Council should provide
extra notice in the newspaper so that no one is taken by surprise by this
matter.
Councilmember Buquet stated he agrees with what was said by Mr. Pilnick and
legal counsel, and with all fairness to the issue, he recommended that the
meeting be continued to December 27 at 6:00 p.m. if the Council concurred.
Mayor Stout stated he agreed with what has been said and felt it was appropriate
to grant the other cable companies sufficient time to prepare their
presentations so as not to infringe upon their rights or abilities to discuss
this matter, but he stated he felt it should be done prior to January 1, 1991.

COMMITTEE)
Councilmember Wright asked if the Task Force would work on Phases I and II.
Jerry Fulwood, Deputy City Manager, stated they would work on both phases and
then present the concept to the Public Safety Commission.
Councilmember Wright read into the record "the City of Rancho Cucamonga is
desirous of reducing community tensions and working with all residents toward
the implementation of fair, humane solutions for all involved, the workers, the
residents, the business community, the general public, and all other concerned
parties; There are no simple solutions, it is recognized that this is a major
social issue, immigration issue, and enforcement issue." She stated she is
proud that this is the approach the City is taking and not just dealing with the
law enforcement side of it.
Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public comment. Addressing the City Council
was:
Dee Murray, 8651 Foothill, next to the Labor Camp, stated there was
recently another fire in this vicinity. She stated there have been four
robberies just recently, and that the transients come into her yard. She
stated that she and Captain Gilmore had suggested the owners be made to
level the property except for the trees. She suggested that Rancho
Cucamonga investigate the same type of plan that Ontario has for this type
of problem. She also suggested there be a patrol car in the early morning
hours in this area to help with the problem.

H3. UPDATE REPORT ON THE SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY PARK AND OPEN SPACE DISTRICT
PARTICIPATION PROCEDURE Staff report presented by Joe Schultz, Community
Services Director, who proceeded to introduce Steve Messerli to introduce the
program. (1404-06 PK DEVEL)
Steve Messerli made a presentation on the San Bernardino County Park and Open
Space District Participation Program.
Councilmember Willjams asked if the District does pass county-wide, but not pass
within our own City, is the City bound to an agreement to stay within that
District and assess the residents in Rancho Cucamonga who have stated they do
not want additional taxes.
Mr. Messerli stated the way the District is set up is as a special benefit
Assessment District thereby requiring a 50% majority vote of the District. He
stated if you had a situation where one City was under that 50% they would be
included in the District. He added the proviso for getting out of the District
would be to initiate de-annexation procedures through LAFCO. He stated to annex
into the District would also be through LAFCO. He stated that due to various
problems going on in the world and other significant problems the Country is
facing, the percentage appears to have dropped for those people interested in
participating in this program. He added it was his opinion that if Rancho
Cucamonga did not participate, the whole District would probably not go through.
Councilmember Williams asked what the monetary benefit would be to Rancho
Cucamonga.
Joe Schultz, Community Services Director, stated there are'33,750 parcels times
$35.00 which would total $590,000.00 to $620,000.00 per year to Rancho
Cucamonga.

(Chaffey Regional Park). He stated there would be a Memorandum of Understanding
which would outline the responsibilities of the District and the City.
Joe Schultz, Community Services Director, stated the intent tonight was for the
City Council to express their concerns. He stated that on December 20, 1990 it
would be going to the Park and Recreation Commission to make a recommendation
for the City Council, and that a Resolution would be coming back to the City
Council in January for their action.
Councilmember Buquet stated he felt there should be a subsequent workshop after
this information was presented tonight.
Jack Lam, City Manager, stated they are not asking the City Council for action,
only to get the Council's input and to answer any questions. He stated the Park
and Recreation Commission would be considering this on December 20 and then a
full package would come back to the Council in January.
Joe Schultz, Community Services Director, suggested this come back to the
Council at the January 2, 1991 meeting, and then if there are any additional
questions it could again come back to the Council at their January 16, 1991
meeting in order to meet the Board of Supervisors' time tables.

of their own.
Councilmember Wright stated she would like to have answers to questions as to
what would be the ramifications if the citizens are taxed $36.00 per year for
regional parks, for which the City would be getting 100% with no pass through
for handling, as opposed to getting 50% if this were handled through the County
with no control over the kinds of projects to be done in the City. She felt
this would be more proactive and responsible on the Council's part. She stated
she would also like the Park and Recreation Commission to consider this option.
She asked that this information be brought back at the next discussion.
Councilmember Buquet suggested there be a Joint meeting with the Park and
Recreation Commission on this matter with public notice to the residents.

January 2 and 16 with the Park and Recreation Commission.

presented by Diane O'Neal, Management Analyst II, who stated that at the last

possibly knowing that the Accord existed. She stated the correspondence was sent
and the agent for the owners was contacted also. She added they would be
following up on this prior to January 2, 1991. She stated staff will be working
with the City Attorney's Office on the provisions of the Accord to see what else
can be done to make sure that the managers of the mobile home parks are making
the new residents aware that there is the Accord and that they don't have to sign
a separate lease agreement with the owners to move into the park.

stated in six months the Council will be reviewing the Accord and that the reason

prove good faith. She stated this lease/rental agreement does not prove good
faith.

investigate a remedy on behalf of those residents that have had their rights
