The City Clerk presented a transmittal from the Development Services Director
of the Special Report - Mobilehome Park Conversion dated July, 1981.
The Development Services Director stated that June Catalano, Deputy Director,
would present a review of the report, following which staff would like Council
direction relative to the components so that staff may begin preparing a
conversion ordinance.
June Catalano, Deputy Director, presented a review of the report stating that
Section. No. 9 - Ordinance Components contains a listing of items which have
appeared in ordinances in other cities which could be used as a starting point
for discussion; however, staff would advise that the City Attorney's Office
review any measures proposed for the conversion ordinance prior to bringing
back a draft ordinance to Council.
Discussion was held by Council. Councilwoman Bailey stated that she believed
special consideration should be given to those with older homes that cannot
be resold. Councilman Thomas stated that he believed all mobilehomes should
be inventoried and rezoning provided. The City Attorney responded to questions
by Councilman MacAllister relative to rezoning.

the components. Councilman Mandic stated that he would like pictures of the
mobilehome areas in question.
Councilwoman Bailey stated that she believed there was a time constraint and
in order to move forward before the moratorium goes off that she did not see
that a study session was necessary. She stated that when the ordinance comes
back to Council, the Council can have public input if they wish and report from
the committee, as they have already met enough to give Council information, but
philosophically, Council can certainly make a decision tonight whether or not to
rezone the other mobilehome parks as mobilehome parks She stated that she would
like to make a motion to that effect.
A motion was made by Bailey, seconded by Thomas, to rezone the mobilehome-parks
that are not presently zoned for mobilehome parks.
Following discussion, Councilwoman Bailey clarified that her motion was to give
direction to staff to bring back the proper method of rezoning. the existing
mobilehome parks in the City.

stated.

on procedure.

Councilman Pattinson requested that staff be directed to review the matter raised
under the "Oral Communications" portion of the agenda relative to the northeast
corner of Indianapolis Avenue and Delaware Street and that it be taken to the
new Traffic Commission and then on to the Planning Commission for their recom-
mendation.
Councilwoman Bailey suggested that it be considered in Circulation Element` -of
the General Plan which is coming up rather than referred to the Traffic Commis-
sion which may delay it as they are not yet organized. Councilwoman Finley
questioned whether circulation decisions were the role of the Traffic Commis-
sion. Councilman Pattinson stated that he would not want this matter.to go
on a General Plan Amendment until studied by the Planning Commission.
On motion by Pattinson, second Bailey, Council directed staff to provide the
Planning Commission with the information regarding the requests made by property.

Council meeting.
REMOVAL OF TREES FROM PUBLIC -RIGHT-OF-WAY
Councilwoman Bailey referred to a letter Council had received from a citizen
regarding trees which were being illegally removed from the public right-
of-way.
Discussion was held regarding the feasibility of adopting an ordinance to .
control this problem. The Public Works Director reported that a draft ordinance
had been prepared some years ago; however,.at the time it had not been.considered
because it was felt that it was "overkill" and would probably require more en-
forcement and many more hours on the department's part answering to it. He
stated that he believed the city had a tool right now in the destruction of
public property that covers the removal of trees; however, if Council desires,
the draft ordinance could be placed on the Agenda.
The City Administrator stated that if Council wished the matter studied staff
would prepare a report.
