the Hellman Avenue from 6th Street to 656 feet north Reconstruction Project,
accept the improvements as complete and authorize the Finance Director to make
the appropriate transfer of additional funds from Gas Tax or Systems Develop-
ment revenue source.
Councilman Dahl inquired into the status of the area along Hellman. Mr.
Wasserman stated staff will check this, and put a note in his box. Usually
there is a base layer and then a finished layer. This particular project in-
volved more work than they originally anticipated because of the erosion caused
by water over the years. The sub-base had to be pulled out and replaced. The
extra cost was for that reason.

$100,447.95 for the Hellman Avenue Reconstruction project and accept the im-

Mayor MikeIs opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing Council were:
Dan Richards, representing Mr. & Mrs. Don Harris, owners of Custom Alloy.
They are in escro~ which is ready to dose with Don O~en of O~en Electric.
Originally their request was for just the Custom Alloy site, but the Plan-
ning staff suggested a larger area, and he wanted to make sure that it was
clear that the only area approved by the Planning Commission was the area
of the two parcels. The area to the north was decided not appropriate.
They concurred with this decision.
Mildred Fears, pastor of Mount Zion Four Square Church, asked if this would
have anything to do with their property. Otto Kroutil, Senior Planner, re-
sponded that this project had no relationship to the Church's property.
Macho Gracia, 10364 Humbolt, had no problem with Mr. Owen going into the
corner. They were concerned that the area was being enlarged to take in
the rest of the empty field. krhat really concerned them was that another
City Council might look at this and say it makes sense to go across the
street to the north.
Orlea Arias, 9858 Main Street, expressed that they had not been notified of
this hearing. Those who did get the notice, it came too late. The people
were concerned about the area to the north and ho~ it would affect them.
Dan Richards stated that the requested use for the area was for the least
intensive industrial zoning that the City had which was an industrial
park. The current use is a non-conforming use for that zoning. There is a
forge in there nov, but that will be leaving. The business going in will
not be one which will create pollution or noise impaction. Mr. Oven
realizes and has so stated to the Planning Commission, the requirements
necessary to improve the property to City standards.
Don Ovens stated that Mr. Harris had a problem because he would have to
lease this out as foundry. It will have to be a foundry or a business like
his.
There being no further public response, the public hearing was closed.
City Clerk Authelet read the title of Resolution No. 85-92.
RESOLUTION NO. 85-92
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO
CUCANONGA, CALIFORNIA, AHENDING THE ADOFrED LAND USE ELEHENT

MOTION: Moved by Buquet, seconded by Dahl to approve Resolution No. 85-92 and
to waive full reading. Motion carried ~-0-1 (King absent).
Councilman Dahl felt this was the best use for the site and neighborhood.
4D. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT APPLICATIONS FOR FISCAL YEAR 1985-86 -
The Council will review the preliminary statement of community objectives and
select for funding those projects most needed in the Community. Staff report
by Otto Kroutil, Senior Planner.
Mayor Mikels opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing Council were:
Nacho Gracia stated he had met with the Water Department - there is an area
on Hemboldt from the Creek to Turner that doesn't have any sewer lines.
Perhaps at a later date we could look at this for future Block Grant fund-
ing.

Tony Zenz, representing Kathy Murkey, President of the Alumni Association

with all members of Council present, but Councilman King.
4E. ASSESSMENT DISTRICT NO. 84-2 - ALTA LOMA CHANNEL IMPROVEMENTS. Staff re-
port by Lloyd Hubbs, City Engineer.
MacKenzie Brown went over the procedure for the evening.
Mr. Rubbs stated only one written protest had been received from Mr. F. Biane,
which represents 2.44 percent of the acreage.
Mayor MikeIs opened the meeting for public hearing for those who had filed a
written protest against the proceedings. Addressing Council were:
Jeanne Tibbetts, daughter of Mr. Biane. Mr. Biane was unable to come to
the meeting since he was out of town. She stated they agreed with the
City's intent to improve the flood control channel. They felt, however,
that the selection of their property was unfair because they were
arbitrarily selected for inclusion in the District rather than include all
the tax payers within the water shed.
Ms. Tibbetts stated that there were two areas to discuss - parcels 2, 3,
and 4 which are the lower parcels. She requested that the lower parcels be
removed from the district. And, Parcel No. I which is in escrow. If this
doesn't go through, then Mr. Biane will keep the property for farming
City Council Minutes
March 20, 1985
Page 10
Mayor MikeIs asked for those who wished to speak against the improvements, the
District, or the method of the spread. Addressing Council was:
Vic Cherbak, 9820 Cinch Ring Lane, Alta Loma. Stated the reason for the
improvement will take care of excess flood waters that have been created by
a development. Therefore, that property under development, should be in-
cluded in this District. The three lots we are talking about along Wilson,
he did not feel it was Council's intent to hasten the demise of agricultur-
al land. This is not vacant property -- it is an agricultural producing
property. All of the other developments are spread over the homeowners of
the subdivisions, but the three parcels are not -- Council is creating a
harship for a farmer.
Mr. Cherbak felt it was unfair that Council increase the fees for a few
developers who have come from outside the City to develop property, and
then charge the fees to the homeowners without regard to the other poten-
tial developments that are going to contribute to the flood waters in the
Channel. He suggested that any other developments which contributed to the
flood waters in the Channel be charged the fee for this.
Mayor Mikels opened the meeting for those who were in favor of the District.
Addressing Council were:
Blane Frandsen, 3366 Halstead Avenue spoke in favor of the district.
Mayor MikeIs asked what was the percentage of final protests. Answer: includ-
ing the three lots, 3.2%.
MOTION: Moved by Wright, seconded by Dahl to close the public hearing. Motion
carried 4-0-1 (King absent).
MOTION: Moved by Buquet to amend the assessment on Parcel No. 3 (which is Tax
Code 201-8348) reducing to zero in as much as the parcel does not receive any
special and direct benefit from the works of improvement. Motion failed for
lack of a second.
Councilman Dahl felt that Parcels 2, 3, and 4 could be developed at at later
time. Mr. Chefback stated that Parcels 2 and 3 has grape vines which support
the winery. Parcel 4 has the grapefruit grove. Parcel 2 consists of 1.3
acres,
Councilman Dahl felt that Parcels 2 and 3 should be removed from the Assessment
District. He felt this would be a good compromise.
Councilman Buquet felt that the fair thing would be to exempt Parcel 3 where
the residential core was, and on parcels 2 and 4 provide a loan provision where
the City will put in the dollars new and that money become due and payable at
some time in the future when it is developed.
Don Owen, consultant, stated we had arranged a hardship clause which stated in
a case of an acceptable hardship the City would pick up the payments as a loan
as they occurred against that lien, up the a maximum of 15 years. At the end
of 15 years, the City will stop charging interest, but still set the full
amount payable as the amount due at the end of the 15 year period or whenever
development occurred.
Mayor MikeIs asked Mrs. Tibbitts if she concurred with this plan. She asked
what the interest rate was. Larry Rollapp stated it would be 9.50. Mr.
Tibbetts asked if the loan would be on Parcels 2 and 4 with Parcel 3 exempted.
Mayor Mikeis stated that was correct. Ms. Tibbitts stated she concurred with
this plan.
MOTION: Moved by Buquet, seconded by Wright to exempt Parcel 3 from the As-
sessment District with the loan provision set in place for Parcels 2 and 4.
Motion carried 4-0-1 (King absent).

MacKenzie Brown went over the action just to make sure everyone understood.
What has been done is to eliminate Parcel 3 fro~ the Assessment District.
Parcels 2 and 4 to remain in the Assessment District. Upon the proper applica-
tion, an agreement of a loan program can be initiated.

Mayor MikeIs opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing Council were:
James Banks, Etiwanda resident, asked what does it mean the single family
only would pay only drainage fees. Does this mean that the drainage fees
and the proposed fees stack on top of each other? Mr. Nubbs responded
there would no other fee except the City's drainage fee established at this
point for this area. This does not establish a fee.
James Frost asked if down stream facilities were included in this Plan or
will they be picked up in the balance of the Master Plan? Mr. Hubbe re-
sponded that under the one plan where the divert to Day Creek, you would
take advantage of the Day Creek Improvements and would offset any impact of
development on the downstream. If you went with the option which retained
the regional system in Etiwanda, there would be a fee increment to assist
in the construction of the Etiwanda Creek Project.
There being no further response, the public hearing was closed.
