Report from Secretary
The C~ty Counc~l October 7, 1974 voted 2-2 on B~xby's f~nal tract map The
C~ty Clerk and the C~ty Eng~neer w~ll not be s~gn~ng the map on adv~ce of
the C~ty Attorney
The C~ty has employed a part t~me employee for help ~n work~ng ~n Plann~ng on the
C~rculat~on Element and the Housing Element
The State, the County and soon the C~ty w~ll have class~f~ed Pac~f~c Coast
H~ghway as a Scen~c Route. Beaut~f~cat~on of the route have already begun.
By next year the storm dra~n on Balboa will be closed, the Mar~na Palace has
been torn down, the Navy ~s landscap~ng the~r property, and a Fotomat ~s be~ng
constucted at the corner of Mar~na Dr. and Pac~f~c Coast H~ghway.
Mr Cook felt the C~ty was be~ng used to c~rcumvent the Coastal Plann~ng
Comro~ss~on. Spec~f~cally when there ~s change ~n ownersh~p of property,
and the f~rst owner must comply w~th certa~n regulat~ons and the C~ty does
not requ~re the second owner to comply. Sug~est~ons to solve the problem
were standards be set down for cond~t~onal turnover, a land use agreement,
or use of a calendar system.
The meet~ng was adJourned at 9 15 by Cha~rman R~pperdan.
