SAN BERNARDINO PRIVATE INDUSTRY COUNCIL -
REMOVAL FROM - EVLYN WILCOX
In a letter dated February 14, 1985, Evlyn Wilcox,
President of Manpower, requested to be heard regarding her
removal by the Mayor as a member of the Private Industry
Council (PIC). (S-3)
19
2/18/85
.
Council Member Quiel made a motion, seconded by
Council Member Strickler and unanimously carried, to waive
Council Rules regarding setting a hearing time and place
certain and to hear Mrs. Wilcox at this time.
Mrs. Evlyn Wilcox, President of Manpower, read from a
letter dated February 14, 1985, and explained the back-
ground of the the Private Industry Council (PIC) which is
composed of 24 members appointed by the Mayor. She stated
she was appointed in 1983 and was elected Vice Chairman.
Following her declaration of candidacy for Mayor, she
received a letter dated December 11, 1984 from Mayor Hol-
comb removing her from PIC. She further stated she was
removed illegally and is appealing this matter to the
Council. It is her contention that the term of this of-
fice is two years and members can be removed from office
only for cause if the term has not expired.
.
Mayor Holcomb stated it was his understanding that
Mrs. Wilcox had been appointed for a term of one year, as
provided by PIC By-Laws, and was notified that her term
had expired. He therefore removed her from the PIC as
their economic development philosophies were vastly dif-
ferent. He suggested that the proper forum for an appeal
of this nature was with PIC itself.
City Attorney Prince answered questions and stated
that the Code requires that all PIC terms be not less than
two years and no member may be removed except for cause
and only then in conformity with rules of PIC. He further
stated that in his opinion, looking at State and Federal
law, Mrs. wilcox is still a member of PIC, and was il-
legally removed from office by the Mayor.
Mrs. Wilcox, President of Manpower, stated she would
take her seat at the next PIC meeting.
Mayor Holcomb suggested Mrs. Wilcox consult a PIC
attorney to get a ruling.
No official action was taken.

In a memorandum dated February 8, 1985, Glenda Saul,
Executive Director of the Redevelopment Agency, explained
the background of the agreement for parking with the own-
ers of the Woolworth Building and the reasons they are

dures are being taken to provide indemnification for mem-
bers of boards and commissions that serve under the aus-
pices of the Community Development Commission/Redevelop-
ment Agency.
.
Council Member Quiel made a motion, seconded by
Council Member Strickler and unanimously carried, to di-
rect the City Attorney to prepare the same type of indem-
nification documents for City boards and commissions as
provided to boards and commissions of the Community Devel-
opment Commission/Redevelopment Agency and report back on

GREYHOUND CORPORATION - SHORT TERM LEASE
In action taken earlier in the Meeting, the Community
Development Commission/Redevelopment Agency authorized the
Executive Director to enter into a temporary rental agree-
ment with Greyhound Corporation for the use of Agency
owned land located at "F" and Rialto Street. This lease is
to be effective until September 30, 1985, with a three-
month extension authorized. (R-5.2)
At that time it was determined that additional infor-
mation was needed from the Planning Director to proceed
with further discussion.
.
Planning Director Schuma explained the actions that
had been taken relative to the Greyhound Bus Depot. Mr.
Schuma stated that the original request was for a Condi-
tional Use Permit (CUP) to establish a temporary bus depot
at the present location of 5th and "F" Streets. Subse-
23
2/18/85
.
quently, another action was taken to establish it as a
permanent facility under a separate CUP after the original
CUP had expired. To the best of his recollection, the
item was appealed by residents in the area and came before
the Council and approval was given for the permanent loca-
tion on that site.
Planning Director Schuma stated that another CUP was
approved by the Planning Commission approximately six or
seven months ago for a permanent facility and expansion to
the west of the existing site. It did not come before the
Council as the Planning Commission approves such projects
unless appealed by adjoining property owners or the appli-
cant. As a result, the Planning Commission approved a
permanent site at that location for a completely new
structure with all the off-street parking requirements for
meeting their parking demands.
.
Planning Director Schuma explained that the reason
for Greyhound Corporation's approach to the Redevelopment
Agency approximately three weeks ago was for a temporary
lease of the site at the corner of Rialto and "G" Street
for use until their new building on 5th Street is com-
pleted.

Dennis Stafford of W. J. McKeever, Inc., representing
the applicants, Kendall Drive Investors and Frontrunner

the architectural design of the units. The Planning Com-
mission recommended that the size of the one bedroom units
be increased from 606 square feet to 700 square and the
two bedrooms, one bath, be increased from 766 square feet
to 850 square feet. Mr. Stafford stated this seems un-
reasonable. The Commission also requested that the out-
side architectural design be modified to create more of a
step in the roof line.
.
Mr. Stafford of W. J. McKeever, suggested that the
one bedroom units be increased to 660 square feet and the
two bedrooms, one bath, be increased to 810 square feet,

tural design. He stated that with these changes he felt

compatible to the surrounding area.
.

would not have a diminishing effect on the surrounding
area.
Joy Kolstad stated that another geological study
should be done in view of the fact that the first study
was done when the project was planned for only 60 units.
She recommended that the proposed project be referred back
to the Planning Department for more study.
Dennis Stafford read the conclusion of the Geolog-
ical Surface Study which was done in April 1981, which
indicated that the site was stable for the proposed devel-
opment from a geological standpoint. He stated that prior
to development that an evaluation will be addressed in
detail.

development, an additional geological study will be re-
quired.
.
Council Member Quiel made a motion, seconded by
Council Member Strickler, that the hearing be closed and
that the Planning Commission's decision be modified to
allow for the change of size of one bedroom apartments to

feet; that elevation drawings be submitted by the Devel-
oper as per plans as seen today; that staff will review
all final off-site development plans; the development of
wall and entryways will receive staff review and approval;
if the Council is inclined to establish a maintenance
district within the State College Area, that this project
would agree to join that maintenance district, if and when
it is created, for off-site maintenance for the planting,
landscaping, wall treatment, and that all conditions would
apply. This approval is subject to a written, recorded
document waiving all rights to density bonuses.

ments and cuts in the hill.

recorded document waiving density bonuses.

thing be done relative to the "bootleg" signs for sub-
division tracts.

they are generally put up on Saturday, but he felt, with
some flexibility, they could take care of the problem.
.
Cou nc i 1 Member Qu i e 1 made a mot i on, seconded by
Council Member Marks and unanimously carried, to direct
staff to prepare and report back to the Council as early
as possible, (1) development of a overlay zoni ng plan for
the development in the California State University area
which would address all of the items that have just been
recognized in the Unversity Report, whereby we could get
the amenities that are looked for in the development of
projects in the California State University Area; (2) to
establish a maintenance district plan for the development
in the California State University Area to address the
on-site and off-site planting, maintenance, lawn care,
sprinkler systems as (a) they are installed and (b) to
assure that there is on-going maintenance. It is also
suggested that if a maintenance district is created, that
all projects be required to join that maintenance dis-
trict. It would not be implemented until the need arises.
If a particular project fails to maintain off-site im-
29

provements, then the City has the tools to maintain them,
knowing where fees are coming from. If the developer
maintains those aspects of the development, there would no
need to intercede.
Planning Director Schuma answered questions regarding
the enforcement procedures. He stated that this type of
a maintenance district makes enforcement easier.
