Corporation, and to respond to your recent letter wherein you expressed concerns the Board had taken no apparent action in this matter. City Council Minutes February 7, 1990 Page 17 Well I can appreciate the length of time involved in conducting these investigations might give the appearance of inactivity, I can assure you that the matter is considered a priority investigation. In order to expedite the investigations, the complaints have been divided between three investigators, and we anticipate legal action will be filed. In fact, the first of these legal actions is expected to be submitted to the Office of the Attorney General in the very near future. I have also been advised that staff in the Board's Southern Regional Office have been in contact with your Administrative Assistant, and status updates will be provided as needed. I have instructed staff to conclude these investigations as quickly as possible. Thank you for the opportunity to address your concerns. If you need any additional information, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Mickey Matsumoto, Chief Deputy Constractor's State License Board" Mayor Stout asked that his office be informed of Rancho Cucamonga's desires to also join in this action, and that Assemblyman Bader be informed of what Assemblyman Eaves is doing. Councilman Buquet stated the Subcommittee has been meeting regularly with promises being made and not kept. He felt the City Council should take action to get things resolved. Councilwoman Brown added that Rick Gomez, Community Development Director, and other staff have drafted a preliminary bill which was sent to Senator Ayala's office, Assemblyman Bader's office, and Senator Leonard's office, and stated that at the Executive Board meeting for the League, this subject was brought up. She stated at the March 15 meeting, the entire Inland Empire Division will be voting to support this legislation to have the League lobby for support on this bill in Sacramento. She added that Larry Rhinehard from Montclair, who is the State Director, will be going on April 27 to the Executive Board for the League of the State and asking for approval on behalf of the Inland Empire Division, that they immediately lobby on everyone's behalf for this bill. Rick Gomez, Community Development Director, stated he spoke with Senator Ayala this date and was informed that the bill was with the Legislative Counsel and was being prepared. He stated he should have a copy within a week. Councilman Buquet stated they have been working with the City of Colton also. Jack Lam, City Manager, stated he attended a West End Manager's meeting, and was informed that Colton is having the same problems that Rancho Cucamonga is having. City Council Minutes February 7, 1990 Page 18 Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public input. Addressing the Council were: Steve Martino, 7698 Ganey Court, of the Woodridge Estates, stated his house looks like it is ready to move into, but cannot be finaled because of the street improvements not being complete on Hermosa. He stated he is in a real bind because his loan approval is coming due, and would like to get an exception from the City Council so he could go ahead and move in. Councilman Buquet stated he had problems with the City Council taking a different action when a decision might come back and haunt them. Mayor Stout stated that Nordic Development does not even keep their promises on street improvements, and that he would have a problem letting him move in when it might hurt someone because it is unsafe. Mr. Martino asked what he should do. Councilman Buquet stated he would buy another house based on the information and experience he has gotten from being involved in this. Councilman Alexander stated Mr. Martino has the option not to buy the house or get legal counsel, and felt that if Mr. Martino was allowed to move in, where does the City Council stop in allowing others to do that. Ron Stein felt that if Nordic can get someone to drop out of a purchase, then they could get more money when they resell it. Councilman 8uquet stated he felt if the residents that were here tonight could go back and get out of their houses, they would do this. Larry Wilder stated he sympathized with Mr. Martino, but that he was in a similar position, and now wishes he had not gone ahead with it. He further added he had the engineer for the project look at his house, and was told it was not built as it was engineered. He continued to give information on the problems he is having with his house, and did not feel the building inspectors did their job when they did their inspections. Councilman Buquet stated that is why he is suggesting the City hire Mr. Sullivan to do the inspection services. Councilwoman Wright stated she is concerned about Mr. Sullivan being neutral on this issue. Councilman Buquet added he felt Mr. Sullivan was qualified and would do a good job. Councilwoman Wright asked if this should be discussed in executive session. James Markman, City Attorney, stated it should be in private. City Council Minutes February 7, 1990 Page 19 Mrs. Huggins felt it was necessary for the City and the BIA to expedite the problems with Nordic. She continued to inform the Council about the problems she is having with Nordic. She expressed her concerns for the condition of Iron Mountain. It was her opinion that if repairs are going on in her house, a City inspector should be present to watch them. She also felt it was a good idea for the BIA to get involved with this. Jan Wilder, Stratton Court, expressed her concerns for the condition of the street at Hermosa and Iron Mountain stating she felt it was unsafe. Brenda Prescoll, Paradise Hills in Colton, stated they were having the same problems in Colton as the residents in Rancho Cucamonga were having. She added there was no way she would have gone ahead with her house if she had known of the problems she would have. Mr. Stone expressed his concerns for the street safety on Hermosa. Councilwoman Brown asked if the Health Department was contacted regarding the sewage problem. Councilman Buquet stated they were, and that they stated it was the homeowner's problem to solve the situation. Mayor Stout felt the structural engineer should be contacted to see if the homes are built as he designed them, and felt Richard Mills should be contacted to get the compaction reports. Councilwoman Wright asked if the Bad Builder Ordinance allows the City to collect the fees for the hired inspector from the developer or someone else. James Markman, City Attorney, stated he would check this out. Mr. Stein stated everyone appreciates everything the City is trying to do. Becky Oliver, Stratton Court, stated she would like to have her house inspected by the engineer, and that she knows of other residents that would like their houses inspected also. The Council concurred that it was the intent to have all of the houses inspected. The City Council adjourned at 9:25 p.m. to executive session.
