Street Sweeping Assessment District to finance the cost for

Mr. Hardgrave stated that funds allocated in the previous
fiscal year's budget are available to finance the undergrounding
of utilities and the installation of six new street lights. He
explained that Southern California Edison Company must raise its
utility lines at Valencia Avenue and relocate a wooden utility
pole on the southwest corner of 21st Street and San Gabriel
Streets to accommodate the City'S street widening project.
Southern California Edison has agreed to pay half of the costs to

owners would not be directly affected by the proposed name
change.
William Beaver, owner of Econo Lube N' Tune, 2225 Club Way,

In a memorandum dated July 10, 1991, Roger G. Hardgrave,
Director of Public works/City Engineer, stated that a letter
dated June 28, 1991, from Richard J. Bennecke, Assistant Base
Closure Officer, inquired if the City might entertain the idea of
vacating Mill Street, from the west boundary of the Ballistic
Missile Office (BMO), in the event the LA Air Station is closed
and some of its functions are relocated to the Ballistic Missile
Office.
Mayor Holcomb indicated that the City might consider the

AN ORDINANCE OF
CHAPTER 8.05 TO
RELATING TO THE
ORDERED VACATED.
THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO ADDING
THE SAN BERNARDINO MUNICIPAL CODE
COLLECTION OF RENT FOR BUILDINGS
FIRST ( 17 )
City Attorney Penman stated that the proposed ordinance
prohibits landlords from collecting rent from tenants after the
building has been ordered vacated by the City. He recounted
instances where, after a building had been ordered vacated, the
landlord had quietly moved tenants back into the building without
making the necessary repairs and the tenants were evacuated
again. He stated that the problem arises when these tenants,
unaware of the order to vacate the building, have paid their rent
to the landlord, and when re-evacuated the landlord refuses to
refund the rent.
City Attorney Penman answered questions regarding the
penalty for violating provisions of the proposed ordinance and
if additional penalties can be imposed on landlords who defy the
ordinance. Mr. Penman stated that the penalty for violating
provisions in the City'S Municipal Code is a misdemeanor with a
penalty of six months in the County jailor a $1,000.00 fine.
He stated that according to State law, the City can only charge
the maximum fine and that there are no provisions in the
Municipal Code to charge additional penalties.
A member of the Council requested that this matter be
referred to the Housing Committee for further discussion.
16
8/5/91
Council Member Minor made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Miller, that said ordinance be laid over for final
adoption.

capacity fees.
COUNCIL MEMBER POPE-LUDLAM RETURNED
Council Member pope-Ludlam returned to the Council meeting

8/5/91
Mr. Kersey explained that the City is operating under a
cease and desist order from the California Regional Water Quality
Control Board to improve the quality of effluent discharge to the
Santa Ana River, and the City must show progress in complying
with these standards otherwise the City will be faced with a
$25,000 per day fine. He stated that a plan must be completed
by 1995 indicating how the City will meet the new regulatory
discharge standards for the Water Reclamation Plant. Recent
major changes in the discharge standards have mandated
construction of new facilities to complete tertiary treatment and
reduction in nitrogen and ammonia levels to protect aquatic life
and groundwater quality.
Mr. Kersey stated that the proposed resolution would
increase the monthly residential sewer service rate from $7.20 to
$13.60. The sewer capacity fee for connection to the Wastewater
Treatment Plant would be charged to new users to cover the
capital project costs, including financing costs, for both
expanding, upgrading, and improving the system. The sewer user
charges would provide a monthly source of revenue for operation
and maintenance costs, long-term debt service, depreciation of
facilities, and replacement costs.
Bill Katona, a resident of the City, opposed the sewer rate
increase.

1991, wherein, the Mayor and Council directed Planning staff to
prepare an ordinance to amend the Development Code as
appropriate to incorporate provisions as shown in Attachment "B",
and those proposed by Mr. Gil Lara of Larcon Development.
Discussion ensued regarding substitution of the word "may
be" for "shall" under the definition portion of the proposed
Development Code Amendments for Single Room Occupancy (SRO)
facilities which reads as follows: "A cluster of seven or more
units within a residential hotel of weekly or longer tenancy
providing sleeping or living facilities for one or two persons in
which sanitary facilities mav be provided in the unit, and
cooking facilities may be shared within the motel".
Deputy City Attorney Empeno stated that substituting the
word "may be" for "shall" would be a substantial change and would
require re-notification of the public hearing process.

occupancy facility can be built, a conditional use permit must
first be obtained. He stated that by obtaining a conditional use
permit, the City can impose as a condition the substitution of
the word "may be" for "shall".

DISCUSSION SECURITY ASSESSMENT DISTRICT FOR
HOSPITALITY LANE AREA - COUNCIL MEMBER HERNANDEZ (S-24)
Council Member Hernandez stated that a meeting was held with
the business community regarding the establishment of a police
security assessment district for the Hospitality Lane/Tri-City
area.
Mayor Holcomb suggested that an additional meeting be held
with the business community in the Tri-City Area, to present an
alternative proposal to forming an assessment district. Mayor
Holcomb proposed that a utility tax over-ride district be
created which would place an additional tax on the utilities
rather than on the property. He felt that business owners would
rather pay additional utilities than higher property taxes. The
utility tax over-ride district would not require an assessment
study and would generate costs savings of approximately $6,000
to $10,000.
Mayor Holcomb recommended that the City give serious
consideration to the establishment of a security district in the
Hospitality Lane/Tri-City area without any dollar commitment on
behalf of the City.
Council Member Hernandez made a motion, seconded by Council
Member Estrada, and unanimously carried, that the Mayor and
Council support the efforts of the Hospitality Lane/Tri-City
Project Area in forming some type of security program.
