FOR CO~ID~P~TION
(26) A. aN ORDINANCE REGULATING CERTAIN ADULT BUSINE.~R3. An ordinance
prohibiting certain nude conduct in establishments which serve alcoholic
beverages. Robert Dougherty, City Attorney, stated this is enacted under
Penal Code sections 3.18.5 and 3.18.6; it is not a zoning ordinance and does
not determine where in the City nude entertainment will be conducted. It is a
temporary moratorium on adult business in the City. This ordinance would
City Council Minutes
June 15, 1983
Page 7
prohibit nude and/or semi-nude waiters and waitresses or entertainers in
establishments serving alcoholic beverages on the premises. Originally 3.18.5
and 3.18.6 allowed this type of ordinance to extend to establishments serving
food and beverages other than alcoholic beverages. With the recent California
Supreme Court decision last year decreed that nude and semi-nude dancing is
"symbolic speech" and protected under the First Amendment of the Constitution
and th~ California Constitution. The case did leave room for cities to
legislate in the area where alcoholic beverages alone are involved.
Councilman Buquet asked if there were any potential problems or loopholes.
Mr. Dougherty stated a potential problem is that the California Supreme Court
when called on to rule on an ordinance affecting establishments serving
alcoholic beverages may decide that the distinction they drew should not be
applied. As of right now the ordinance would be found constitutional.
Mayor Mikels commented on nude juice bars being established to avoid serving
alcoholic beverages. Mr. Dougherty stated a recent case involving the City of
Los Angeles, Lee vs Davis, where a similiar ordinance extending to places that
did not serve alcoholic beverages was held unconstitutional. Under present
law, we cannot go further than regulate places having nude conduct and also
serve alcoholic beverages.
Councilman Frost asked if this could be regulated through zoning. Mr.
Dougherty stated that could be regulated but the law states cities cannot
totally ban nude and semi-nude entertainment, adult bookstores, or adult movie
theaters.
Councilman Frost asked what the timeframe and options were. Mr. Dougherty'
stated another 9-10 months to com~ up with a comprehensive zoning regulation
before the moratorium will expire.
Mayor Mikels opened the meeting for public input. There being no response,
the public section was closed.
City Clerk Wasserman read the title of Ordinance No. 200-B.

Mr. Wasserman replied Chaffey will still handle the humane problems. Dog

time. Staff report by Rick Gomez, City Planner.
Set public hearing for July 6, 1983.
C. ZONE W - FLOOD CORTRO~ BENEFIT A~F~NT AGREE~ WITH SAN BERRARDIRO
COUNTY. An agreement with San Bernardino County on provisions for the
administration of funds received under the successful passage of the proposed
Measure "W". Staff report by Lloyd Hubbs, City Engineer. The agreement is
substantially the same as adopted previously except for modification of clause
#9 which discusses indemnity. Under the Benefit Assessment Act the Board of
Supervisors and County Counsel want to be held harmless for any legal action
that may accrue through the process.
Basic provision of the program is that 87% of all funds collected will be
returned to the City to expend on projects selected by the City. Funds to the
City would be deposited into a separate account and the interest would accrue
to the City on those funds. The 87% money would be prioritized by the City.
The City's flood control priority list is in excess of $8 million and three
projects listed for priority are Turner-Hermosa Drain, the lower Hellman Drain
running from Foothill Boulevard south to Cucamonga Creek, and the Day Etiwanda
Project. The remaining 13% will be prioritized by the Board of Supervisors.
The West Cucamonga Creek project was designated as the number one priority to
receive the 13% funds.
Zone One Committee recommended cost of the eleetion be shared by the cities
involved along with the County in unineorporated areas. Our share Would be $8
400. This figure is related to the precinct votes and the actual
administrative costs.
Mr. Wasserman stated that the City would add an additional amount for funds
needed for allocations from contingency into that account.
Mayor Mikels opened meeting for public discussion. There being no response,
the public discussion was closed.

(3E) D. ~KRITAG'K 'PARK DI~IGN CONTRACT: CONSIDERATION OF CONTRACT MODIFICATION.
Staff report by Bill Holley, Community Services Director. Mr. Holley
presented the site plan for Heritage Park that would be reviewed by the Park
Advisory Committee and the Planning Commission. The activity centers at the
park would be equestrian, 4H area, two baseball-softball/soccer fields, large
playground area, basketball area, picnic facilities, equestrian trail, and
Jogging-walking trail. The main access to the park would be on Beryl.
Ron Paige, Recreation Systems Inc., stated the preliminary planning
process is not completed at this time. A detailed Design Development
Report will be prepared including more information on the concept of
the design, address the environmental impact that the park will have
on the community, discuss costs, and recommend phasing.
Councilman Buquet asked what the average cost per acre was to develop. Mr.
Paige replied around $50,000 an acre. Councilman Buquet stated the projected
cost went from $38,857 to $57,142 per acre. Mr. Paige replied costs on this
park are higher because of the substantial amount of grading, heavy use areas,
specialized facilities, for example, the inclusion of bridges. Costs are
higher because of the site itself, limited access, need for grading, and high
impact use that is projected.
Councilman Sohlosser asked about the cost of the bridges. Mr. Paige stated
the price would vary, but the main bridge would probably be $40-60,000,
without amenities. The pedestrian bridge would be in the neighborhood of $20-
30,000.
Mayor MikeIs opened the meeting for public discussion. There being no
response, the public discussion was closed.
Mayor Mikels asked about setting of $1.3 million as the budget cap. Mr.
Holley stated the $1-3 million was figured on the remaining land using the
standard of $40,000 per acre. As more specifies were looked at, the feeling
was that because of grading and amenlties suggested by the design group, the
figure would be in excess of $1.3 million, possibly to $2 million.
Councilman Schlosser asked for an expIanation of item 2. Mr. Holley replied
stated the contract is eliminating the preparation of construction drawings
and everything as a direction at this time to the consultant. The Design
Development Report portion of the contract will be completed. On phase by
phase plan and our ability to pay, the construction drawings would be prepared
in detail.
Councilman Schlosser felt there should be some monetary limit. Councilman
Buquet does not feel the cost was run up by the consultant, but by those who
want more amenities. Mayor Mikels stated that phase by phase would probably
be the best way to go. Councilman Sohlosser had no problem with the phase by
phase.
Councilman Buquet thought it would be helpful to get a community facilities
act for park development. Mayor Mikels stated that if the community voted on
a faeillties act to spend additional money for the park they would have to
evaluate what they would be getting for their money and make their decision on
the ballot.
Councilman Frost stated City Council might want to defer a decision on this
item. Councilman Dahl and he are actively evaluating specifics of Mello Roos
Act and after their next meeting may be able to provide more input for council
to act on. Mayor Mikeis asked if that would impact the decision with respect
to the contract modifications. Councilman Frost stated there may be
additional information that would have an affect on Council's decision.
City Council Minutes
June 15, 1983
Page 11
Councilman Buquet felt this item should not be deferred since any decision
regarding the Mello Roos Act would not affect this issue of paying the
consultants bill. Councilman Frost stated the ability to fund improvements in
the park may have an affect on future work.
Mr. Holley stated a DDR would have to be prepared in any case.
Ron Paige stated they could proceed with working drawings based on
$1-3 million without some amenities, but where could the City go from
there. It could not go out to bid; if there is flexibility in the
contract, ~hey could help. Until a DDR is completed, the actual cost
is not known.
Motion: Moved by Buquet, seconded by Schlosser to direct staff to modify
contract, option #2. Motion carried by the following vote:
Councilman Schlosser asked what the modification was. Mayor Mikels stated the
City Council is authorizing payment for the DDR, then proceed in phases as we
wanted to do the work or had funds to do it.
AYES: Buquet, Schlosser, Frost, Mikels

the rights of way through Heritage Park up the flood control channel.
Additionally, there would be refinement of the undercrossing at Base Line.
Would entail $285,000 City commitment, which funds are available. Mr. Holley
stated the contract needs refinement and recommends referring contract back to
City Attorney. Also, there are positive negotiations with CCWD use of the
neighborhood park on the south side of Base Line.
Councilman Buquet asked what the time element was. Mr. Holley replied it is
best to move as soon as possible since the Corps plans to accelerate it up one
year, which would mean putting bids out in September. All agreements would
have to be reached as soon as possible.
Councilman Schlosser stated this is money well spent for betterment of
community and Council should proceed with it.
City Council referred contract to City Attorney and return finalized agreement
to July 6, 1983 City Council meeting.
F. REQUEST FOR WAIVER OF CONDITIONS FOR PARCEL MAP ~773. Located on 23rd
Street, 850 feet east of Etiwanda Avenue and 950 feet north of Stummit
Avenue. Staff report by Lloyd Hubbs, City Engineer. If the current policy
was altered it would back to the Planning Commission and public hearing
process to modify that condition.
Mr. Charles, prospective owner of the property, felt the the burden
should not be placed on one person to build a road that would benefit
everyone on the lot.
City Attorney stated a public hearing is required before any action taken to
alter the policy.
Mayor Mikels asked if we could enter into a reimbursement agreement in the
future after improvements were made. Mr. Hubbs stated that we could enter
into a reimbursement agreement.
Councilman Buquet asked if there was any way to speed up reimbursements. City
Attorney stated that once a parcel has developed without having a condition
imposed upon it you will not get it voluntarily without getting paying
compensation for it. The only way to obtain easements, except by dedication,
as a condition of development or further land division, would be by eminent
domain.

Mr. Charles asked if CCWD having a 20 ft easement could pave that
area. He asked if he could put up a bond and develop later.
Mr. Hubbs replied that all bonding agreements are fixed time agreements. It
would not relieve any financial burden. Mr. Hubbs stated the City would work
with Mr. Charles to pave portions of road outside of the water department's
easement.
Consensus of City Council was to uphold the existing standards and work within
the current policy to assist Mr. Charles.
