Detective Emerson made sure every possible security measure was taken for my safety. Not only was he proffesional (sic), he made sure I was as relaxed as possible. During the entire day I was never out of his sight. He was constantly on the move watching for any possibility that might present itself. Detective Emerson was polite, sincere, intellegent (sic) and undaunted in his duties. I felt more like I had a friend with me that day. My hat goes off to the fine law enforcement agents of the Rancho Cucamonga Sheriff's Department. It's too bad we wait for an opportunity like this before we express our appreciation.

Motion carried unanimously, 5-0. , , , , , , DISCUSSION OF ITEM D12. Approval to execute Improvement Agreement Extension of Tract 13650 located on the southeast corner of Foothill Boulevard and Baker Avenue, submitted by Northwoods Development. RESOLUTION NO. 89-555 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, APPROVING IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT EXTENSION AND IMPROVEMENT SECURITY FOR TRACT 13650 Councilwoman Wright stated the reason she asked for this particular item to be pulled is because they are asking for a six month extension, and asked if they would be allowed to occupy these units before they have completed all of the work on Baker or Foothill. Russ Maguire, City Engineer, stated that basically they get no occupancy until they can prove they have reasonable and safe access to the site. Once they have done this, then occupancy is released proportionally to completion up to 95%, at which point it is held until Council accepts the tract. He further stated that most of these extensions, when it includes landscaping, also include anywhere from a one to three month landscape establishment period. City Council Minutes November 15, 1989 Page 9 Councilwoman Wright stated that on this one specifically they are asking for an extension on the sidewalk and landscaping on Foothill as well as Baker, and stated that it has been her experience throughout construction that they have not maintained adequate signal men or whatever is needed during the construction phase. She asked if we are obligated by law to grant the extension. Russ Maguire, City Engineer, stated the City is not obligated to grant the extension, but stated if we do not grant it, what will happen is the contractor will be in violation of the agreement, and that the City's only option is to not force completion, but take them into court and have the bonding company complete the project, which usually takes longer. He stated if Councilwoman Wright feels uncomfortable with this, they can be granted only three months and then come back again. Councilman Alexander stated he agreed with Councilwoman Wright as it relates to safety and access, and that even though the extension might be granted, he felt no form of occupancy has to be granted until such time as all safety issues relating to access are completed, and asked if this was correct. James Markman, City Attorney, stated that if the Council wants to come back and amend the agreement this can be done. Councilwoman Wright stated this is not her only concern, and stated that this major corner is almost completed and to sit like this for six months would create an eyesore. Russ Maguire, City Engineer, stated the Council could take a minute action directing staff to consider the completion of frontage improvements on Foothill and Baker, the safety issue, and that this be applied to withhold any occupancy. Councilwoman Wright stated she is also concerned that the site sits uncompleted and asked if they would have to keep progressing over the six month period. Russ Maguire, City Engineer, stated he did not know of any vehicle other than saying you can't move anyone in. Councilwoman Brown stated there are two improvement agreement extensions on the agenda for Nordic, and that the Council knew what kind of problems the City was having with them. Councilman Buquet asked if there was a way to express to the contractor the concerns that the Council has. Russ Maguire, City Engineer, stated that staff needs some kind of leverage of "no occupancies" by minute action. Councilwoman Wright stated that would be her motion, and asked if they could reconsider Nordic if this is voted in the affirmative. City Council Minutes November 15, 1989 Page 10 James Markman, City Attorney, stated they could reconsider it if they wanted to bring it up. Mayor Stout said he agrees with the safety issues on Baker and Foothill, and felt he could justify the holding of occupancies, but had concerns about rushing the landscaping issue too much and not getting a quality job. Councilman Buquet felt staff should be able to do whatever is necessary to get the job done. MOTION= Moved by Wright, seconded by Buquet to approve the extension with the proviso that no occupancy be allowed until the infrastructure on Baker and Foothill is complete with an appropriate percentage of occupancies to be released, which is to be determined by staff, with no occupancy allowed beyond that until the landscaping is complete on the two perimeter streets. Motion carried unanimously, 5-0. , , , , , Councilwoman Wright asked that Item D10 be reconsidered if staff felt it should be along with any others. Councilman Buquet felt this should be looked at by legal counsel before the Council does any further reconsiderations. , , , , , E. CONSENT ORDINANCES El.

City Council Minutes November 15, 1989 Page 15 Brad Buller, City Planner, stated that the park issue and the retention basin issue were discussed and that this amendment is an administrative update to actually catch up with some of those actions that were taken in the past, and stated this is the formal action to put it back in the community plan as it is today. Councilwoman Brown stated her question is that the decision to make the parks the acreage they are was not dependent upon deleting a park a year and a half later, and asked if this was the case, or did we know a year and a half ago that Etiwanda School District was not going to need the school facilities. Brad Bullet, City Planner, stated he thought it was over a year and a half ago that the City knew the Jr. High would not be there, nor did they need the elementary school sites. Councilwoman Brown stated she knew about the Jr. High, that they had swapped that land quite awhile ago, but that she was talking about the other piece. Brad Buller, City Planner, stated Dan Coleman, Principal Planner, is nodding his head that this was correct, that we did know a year and a half ago about the elementary school also. Councilwoman Brown asked if this was in line with City standards or the Development Agreement. Joe Schultz, Community Services Manager, stated this is in line with the Development Agreement. Councilwoman Brown asked if they could apply new conditions to an already existing Development Agreement to make it consistent with City standards. James Markman, City Attorney, stated this could be done if the developer agreed with it. Mayor Stout stated we are forcing Lewis Homes to bring their plan in compliance with a decision that was already made in the past. Brad Buller, City Planner, stated we have requested that they comply and that they are doing this. Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public hearing. Addressing the City Council were: Don Thompson, Lewis Homes, clarified the park acreage issue and felt this amendment to the Tetra Vista Community Plan was a "housekeeping" item. He referred to Item I and stated this was not one of their favorite items, but that they do not have any objection to this. Mr. Thompson said Lewis Homes does not want to donate more park land. He informed the Council what their plans were to upgrade Terra Vista Planned Community. City Council Minutes November 15, 1989 Page 16 (34) Jim Frost, City Treasurer, gave background on the established Tetra Vista Community Plan and did not feel there should be any compromise with the standards set for Terra Vista. There being no further response, the public hearing was closed. Councilwoman Brown stated she realizes that Tetra Vista is a very nicely planned community, but felt she and the entire City Council were concerned about the park land standards.

Mayor Stout asked if this included parking structures. Mr. Taylor stated yes. Councilwoman Brown stated the reason she had this put on the agenda was for interlocking commuter rails. She felt we needed to address what traffic impacts this might have since Measure I was passed. She felt if this was in Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga would not get to vote on it and felt Rancho Cucamonga should look at this and stay involved. Mayor Stout felt the City should design where they want it to be located. Councilman Buquet felt Rancho Cucamonga should get more information on this before we decide what our position is on it.

REPORT ON HOUSE AND BUILDING ADDRESSING PROCEDURE Staff report presented by Jerry Grant, Building Official. (0807-01 CODE BLDG) Mayor Stout stated that up until recently, the City did not put address numbers on street signs. He felt some kind of method should be developed so that neighborhoods can be better identified. He did not feel Rancho Cucamonga's numbering system was very well planned out. He felt numbers should be put on street signs, especially along Base Line. Councilman Buquet felt we also need a better marking system and that we should get street signs up that have come down for whatever reason. Mayor Stout asked for this to go to the Community Development Department, Public Safety Commission, Sheriff's Department and Fire Department for investigation. Councilman Buquet felt there should be a consistent place for the addresses to go on buildings. He felt painting curbs was a good idea, but that the placement was also important. Jack Lam, City Manager, stated staff will look into it and come back with a report. ACTION: Report to come back to Council. , , , , , I7. REPORT ON AIR TRAFFIC TRAINING OVER RESIDENTIAL AREAS (Oral Report) (1160- 00 TRAFFIC) (0507-02 TRAIN PROG) ACTION: Item continued to December 6, 1989 meeting.

(Oral Report) (0702-02 ANNEX) Councilwoman Brown stated that it appears there is support now by the County to annex the sphere. She stated some of the concern was if the City was to go ahead with a Resolution of Intent to Annex, that those people already in the process could drop tomorrow and apply with the County, and if this were to ever go through, they would fall back because they applied before the annexation took place. She asked James Markman, City Attorney, that if there was a vote to move forward with annexation, could there also be a motion to ask the County to put some kind of a hold or whatever on the parcels up there until (as Mr. Walker suggested) the County and City staff got together to work out a preannexation, prezoning of that sphere. James Markman, City Attorney, stated he did not know what the County would do. He suggested that the City ask the County to apply City standards in the interim. Mayor Stout stated he and Councilman Buquet would be meeting with Supervisor Mikels, but felt there should be a position paper written from the City of Rancho Cucamonga to the Board of Supervisors telling them exactly what the City would like to happen. He felt the City should be on record as to what it wants, because he has heard from other sources the City has never told them this. Councilman Buquet agreed that we should correspond with them about this. Mayor Stout suggested the following be related to the County: 1) that the City wants the Sphere of Influence area to have City standards adopted per their own general plan; 2) request annexation of all County areas in the sphere; and 3) request from them that the City process all development through the sphere area. He added he would like to do this if the Council concurred. Councilwoman Wright stated that she wanted it to be known, after reading today's newspaper, that the City has been fighting the issue of annexing the sphere and has been doing everything possible to complete the annexation. She asked that it be put on the record with an answer by the City Manager that it has in the past been the intent and direction of the City Council that the City annexes, and do everything possible to annex the sphere, and asked if staff has taken that direction to do everything possible to complete the annexation of the sphere. Jack Lam, City Manager, stated yes. Councilwoman Wright clarified if the developer calls the shots as far as being annexed into the City, that if he does not want to be annexed, it does not occur. Jack Lam, City Manager, stated that is correct because there is a requirement for over 51% of the assessed valuation to concur with the annexation, and stated that at this point in time, there is no formula that would allow any of that property to be annexed into the City. (42) City Council Minutes November 15, 1989 Page 22 Councilman Buquet added that part of the problem is that there has not been the opening from the County. Councilwoman Brown stated she was surprised to hear that the City had not done anything to annex the County Flood Control area since this was one of the first things she had worked on after being elected. Mayor Stout stated it should be included that the City has always been working on the annexation in the letter to the County. He further asked if this had been annexed into the City some time back, could this have stopped the Rock Crusher? James Markman, City Attorney, stated no. The City Council concurred with Mayor Stout's suggestion regarding the letter to the County. Mayor Stout stated he would work with staff on the preparation of the letter. Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public input. Addressing the City Council were: Gerald Recon, Caryn Homeowner's Association, stated their association commends the City in moving ahead with annexing this land. He stated they would like for the City to consider 3 to 4 homes per acre and would like to go on record with this request. He added he would like to go on record asking that the Chaffey Regional Park be put back in the master plan. He further added he appreciated that it is difficult at times to get things accomplished through the City, but felt it was worthwhile for the City to do what they do. Councilwoman Wright stated to Mr. Recon that the City has not let the annexation issue lay idle, and that the City has done everything possible to get the annexation through. Mark Gutglueck, resident of Rancho Cucamonga, expressed that at some of the workshops and meetings regarding this issue, he felt citizens were not allowed to attend or give input. Mayor Stout asked Mr. Gutglueck if he had any proof of his charges. Mr. Gutglueck said he was excluded from one of the meetings held in April, 1988 which included Mr. DiIorio and Mr. Rizzo, several citizens and a couple staff members. He stated he told the group he was from the press and was told they would cancel the meeting if he insisted on being present. Mayor Stout asked Brad Bullet, City Planner, if he knew of any such meeting. Brad Buller, City Planner, stated no. James Markman, City Attorney, stated that if he is talking about a meeting where staff is working with developers and their staffs, and that if there are not City Council Minutes November 15, 1989 Page 23 three Councilmembers, then it is common not to have the press there while those types of agreements are negotiated. He stated this is not what he exactly called a community workshop. Councilman Buquet stated that regardless of what happens in a meeting, a majority of the City Council would have to vote on an issue that was actually to take place. Mr. Gutglueck added he would like to see what will happen to this property once it is annexed and felt the people should know this. He stated he did not want there to be thousands of units on this property. There being no further input, the public hearing was closed. ACTION: Letter to go to the County regarding annexation of property as outlined by Mayor Stout above. , , , , , I9. DISCUSSION ON UPCOMING LAFCO HEARING ON THE PRESERVATION OF THE AGRICULTURAL PRESERVE AS IT RELATES TO THE EFFORTS OF THE AOMP AND THE COUNTY- WIDE OPEN SPACE STUDY RECENTLY INITIATED BY THE COUNTY (Oral Report) Staff report presented by Councilwoman Brown, who stated that this was put on the agenda because on November 29, 1989, LAFCO will be hearing the debate of the preservation of the Agricultural Preserve. She stated she felt the Council should encourage LAFCO to keep their word that they will at least keep the ten year window before they open it up to the City of Ontario to cement over. She added this is nothing more than to suppert this negotiation through a letter from the Mayor. (1503-01 LAFCO) Councilman Buquet stated he did not have enough background information on it to do anything tonight. Mayor Stout asked if this could be heard at the November 28 meeting so written information could be provided about this issue. ACTION: Item to be placed on the November 28 agenda. , , , , , J.
