RES. 95-27 - RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND COMMON COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AMENDING RESOLUTION NO. 94-
46 RELATING TO POSTING OF THE AGENDA AND THE LENGTH OF
PUBLIC COMMENTS. (17A)
Larry Singleton, 265 W. 21st Street, San Bernardino, CA, spoke
in opposition to limiting the length of time the public can speak
throughout the meeting.
Brian Plant, 498 W. Court Street, San Bernardino, CA, read the
title and various sections of the proposed resolution.
Jeff Wright, P.O. Box 2341, San Bernardino, CA, spoke in
opposition to the limitation of time allotted to address the Mayor
and Common Council throughout the meeting and opposed the
combination of more than one issue under one item.
City Attorney Penman expressed concern that the three-minute
time limit may not be able to withstand a court challenge. The
Brown Act does not provide for the legislative body to place
limitations on the time that the public can speak during a public
meeting and does not prohibit the public from criticizing the
legislative body concerning City programs.
8
2/6/95
Discussion ensued relative to what other legislative bodies
have done regarding the limitation of public comments and the
legality of limiting comments to three minutes and not allowing the
public to speak on an item that has previously been brought before
a committee.
Senior Assistant City Attorney Barlow expressed concern
relative to the three-minute time limit, but added that other items
covered in the resolution were reasonable under the Brown Act.
Shauna Clark, City Administrator, stated she had a concern
regarding the suggested amendment of Section 14 of Resolution No.
94-46, because it prohibits the Council Members not in attendance
at sub-committee meetings from commenting on or discussing these
items at Council meetings.
Council Member Oberhelman made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Pope-Ludlam, that full reading of said resolution be waived,
and that said resolution be adopted.
Resolution No. 95-27 was adopted by the following vote: Ayes:
Council Members Negrete, Curlin, Hernandez, Oberhelman, Devlin,
Pope-Ludlam. Nays: Council Member Miller. Absent: None.

MEMBER SALARIES (17B)
Peggy Ducey, Assistant to the City Administrator, submitted a
Staff Report dated January 30, 1995, regarding the establishment of
a Blue Ribbon Commission to study the salary levels of the Mayor
and Common Council.
Council Member Pope-Ludlam made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Oberhelman, that a Blue Ribbon Commission be created to
study Mayor and Council Member salaries. (Note: There was no vote
taken. )
Discussion ensued regarding how the Legislative Review
Committee determined the makeup of the Blue Ribbon Commission to
study Mayor and Council Members salaries and whether members should
be residents of the city.
Council Member Curlin made a substitute motion, seconded by
Council Member Miller, and unanimously carried, that a Blue Ribbon

CUL-DE-SAC FEASIBILITY
AVENUE
18TH STREET & ARROWHEAD
(83)
Council Member Curlin submitted a Staff Report dated February
1, 1995, recommending discussion and exploration of the feasibility
of a cul-de-sac at 18th Street and Arrowhead Avenue.
The following citizens spoke in support of creating a cul-de-
sac on 18th Street and Arrowhead Avenue:
Donald Jolly Gabriel, P.O. Box 951, San Bernardino, CA.
Stan McIntyre, 332 W. 18th Street, San Bernardino, CA.
Luis Lopez, 324 W. 18th Street, San Bernardino, CA.
Louanne Wear, 371 W. 18th Street, San Bernardino, CA.
It was noted that creating a cul-de-sac on 18th Street would
be less complex and less costly than the 17th Street cul-de-sac, as
18th Street has existing street improvements and, with some
modification, the same plans could be used.
Council questioned whether those individuals supporting the
cul-de-sac would be open to an assessment district to cover the
cost.
