APPROVAL OF MINUTES The minutes of May 3, 1976, were approved as mailed.
CONSIDERATION OF Before hearing from the various organizations which
REVENUE SHARING had submitted requests for revenue sharing funds for /
PROJECTS 1976 -77 their programs, Mayor Putnam addressed the audience
FISCAL YEAR advising she had visited Washington earlier in the 76 — 7 7
year, along with mayors from throughout the Country.
The purpose of the visit was to support the idea of
the continuation of revenue sharing for cities. The matter has remained in a'
subcommittee since the time -of her visit and has ;finally been reported out of
the subcommittee. The recommendation of the subcommittee is to continue
revenue sharing for only 3 - 3 /4.years. The matter now goes before a full
committee, and it is the understanding the concept of revenue sharing will
meet considerable opposition in Washington. Mayor Putnam stated the Conference
of-Mayors was hopeful of having the matter of revenue sharing continued, but
the feeling is not very optomistic. A considerable amount of work is being
done on a nationwide scale to determine what can be accomplished.
Mayor Putnam advised the audience the purpose of this meeting is to review the
requests from various outside organizations and for the Council to hear from a
spokesman from each group. She advised the audience no action would be taken
on any of the requests at this meeting.

Mr. Adrian Sias, President of the American Association of Retired People,
addressed the Council in support of the senior citizens' center. Mr. Sias
stated his organization has visited centers in other locations and has com-
piled some statistics on the numbers of elderly people in the community. Mr.
Sias stated there are approximately 3,300 persons in Petaluma over 60 years of
age. Of these, 665 are below the poverty level and 1,790 represent the ethnic
minorities.. He stated other organizations which support the concept of a
senior citizens' center in addition'to the Adobe Lions Club and the American
Association of Retired People include the Golden Agers Club are the Grand-
mothers' Club, the.Golden Circle Dining Club, and the Petaluma People Services
Center. Mr. Sias indicated a proper use of the Carnegie Library may be to
have the first floor reserved for a senior citizens' center and have.the
mezzanine or balcony devoted to the historical museum aspect. A budget
supporting the request was submitted showing the rental of the building now
unoccupied (Cline Furniture Company) for a total amount of annual rent of
$14,400. Mr. Sias indicated this amount could be deducted from the total
budget of $42,740 if the Carnegie Library could be utilized as a center.
After Mr. Sias' presentation some discussion was held and concern expressed
about instituting a program under revenue sharing funds which should be an on-
going program and the capability of the City to continue_to,support such
program if revenue sharing funds were no longer available. City Manager
Robert Meyer advised the Council approximately 30 letters had been received in
support of the senior citizens' drop -in center.

PETALUMA BOYS CLUB Mr. Ples Crews, Executive Director of the Petaluma
AMOUNT REQUESTED, Boys' Club, Inc., addressed the City Council next.
$36, 1,,5.00 members, representing -1 140 f ogs' Club now has
\(� 1� 000 ' Mr. Crews advised the Council the B
I programs include.57 teams of basketball, 3 ball e Their
�� p g 38 teams. of
baseball, and 28 teams of football, in addition to judo, wrestling, and other
T�r,z2e� activities. He also indicated the Boys' Club'has only one gym, to accommodate
all of their.indoor activities. They wish to purchase property located at the
corner of Eighth and "F" Streets to install two basketball courts, one tennis
court, and a 20 -car parking lot. The request from the'Council for revenue
sharing funds is in the amount of $36,000. This amount would secure the
property, but would not provide f'or addition or improvements to the.present
structure. Mr. Crews indicated the proposed expansion of the Boys' Club would
be approximately $150,000. He also stressed the fact the club is not only
open for the boys of the community -- during the hours when it is not be 'used by
boys, it is available to other or throughout the community., .
\ PETALUMA.GIRLS CLUB Lionne Campbell,, President of the Petaluma Girls
^� \ AMOUNT REQUESTED., Club, was next to address the City Council. Ms.
$3,000 Campbell stated the Girls' Club had sent out 5,000
1 surveys through the schools in order to determine the
<* the of the girls in the community. The majority .of.
the .responses indicated a need for a drop -in center
-- for social interaction, homemaking.,.and a chance for the young girls to get,
together. This is what the Girls' Club is` trying. to provide. The Club is
(006 open after school hours to cover the time when. young - people are dismissed from
school and the working-parents return home. Ms. Campbell indicated the amount
of money the .Girls' Club is seeking out of, revenue sharing is very modes.t .
compared to other requests. Since their only source of income is through -
projects sponsored by the Girls' Club,..such as their spagetti feed aid.sales
of candy, - they are requesting $3,0.00 from the.Council in order -.to continue
with their work. She advised the Petaluma Girls' Club is:not eligible for
funds from the United Way, they have been turned down for the past two years,
but will keep applying for a; grant.. She also .indicated- there are five Boys'
Clubs in Sonoma County and Petaluma is the only community,with a Girls' Club.
The $3,00.0 request would pay for rent, building maintenance, and utilities.
At the conclusion of Ms. Campbell's presentation, Mr. Crews, the Director of
the Boys' Club, spoke stating he was not reflecting the official feeling of
the Board of Directors of the Boys' Club; however, speaking for h =imself, he
was hopeful the Board of Directors of both the Boys' -Club and the Girls' Club
might be able to work out some type of compromise in order to provide betiter'
facilities for the.Girls' Club. Mayor Putnam.sugges,ted perhaps a meeting
could be arranged for both Boards at sometime .in the future.
PETALUMA PEOPLE Gerald Klor addressed the City Council on behalf of
(� SERVICES CENTER the Petaluma People 'Services Center. The request 'for-
AMOUNT REQUESTED, $10,732 from revenue sharing funds is to .cover the -
�� $10,732 operating expense budget for the next year: Included
in the budget is an amount for rent, utilities,
insurance:, telephone, printing„ office supplies;
�RPaS repairs and maintenance. Mr. Klor stated the Center offers services to the
aO Sonoma County area which are available to residents in the Santa Rosa area,.
( but not in our locale. The complete budget for the Center .exceeds the amount
requested from revenue sharing funds ;-however, additional funds are made
available primarily through the 314 -D Grant. The Center does.not feel.,
however, they could shift these funds for operating expenses, as they are .
intended f.or the cost of staffing the Center. Mr. Klor also stated the Peta-
luma People Services Center was aware of the fact revenue sharing funds; may,'
at some time, not be available. He expressed a desire:, however, the City
would continue beyond revenue sharing to consider the Petaluma People Services
Center as a line item in the Ci -ty " s budget'. Mr. Klor introduced Rose.Farkas
who has recently assumed the position of-Executive Director for the Petaluma
People Services Center. Ms. Farkas spoke in favor of the program and answered
questions posed by members of the City Council.
Councilman Cavanagh asked what the total budget for the Center would be for
the coming year, and Ms: Farkas replied $80,000.

PETALUMA PEOPLE When questioned by Vice -Mayor Mattei if the Center had
SERVICES'CENTER requested an increase of 5.0% from the Sonoma County r / / F
AMOUNT REQUESTED', Board of Supervisors, Mr. Klor responded by stating
$10,732 when they originally went to the Board of Supervisors 76 -77
'(Continued) for revenue sharing' funds they were granted an award
for a two-year period and, therefore, were unable to T ��' "���ck�e�
go back in this,same form. The Center had to look at .4-0
their priorities and the Board of Supervisors then approved an appropriation
for a Petaluma Action. Program.
Some discussion was held regarding the County agencies which utilize the
Center. Ms. Farkas stated there were 30 agencies using the Center, and of
these, eight were public agencies, and the balance were non - profit groups.
Vice - Mayor M.attei suggested that since the Center is' providing office space
for the eight County agencies, perhaps a request could be made for reimburse-
ment for this expense from the County. When asked if the Center provides
telephone services for the eight public agencies, Ms. Farkas advised telephone
expenses are reimbursed.
At the conclusion of the discussion, a request was made of the Executive
Director of the Petaluma People Services Center to provide the City with a
copy of their complete budget in order for additional studies to be made
before the decision is reached on the allocation of revenue sharing funds.
Ms. Farkas indicated she would comply.
Some discussion was then held on the proposed development of Lucchesi Park.
Councilman Harberson, the Council's representative on the Recreation, Music
and Parks Commission, stated the goals and recommendations of the Commission
were to concentrate the efforts for development of Lucchesi Park. In fact, at
an earlier meeting, the Commission and City Council had been approached by.a
group asking for tennis courts to be installed at this site. The first stage
of the development is to complete the engineering and the grading. City
Manager Robert Meyer stated the Program of Service indicates the engineering
and grading would be ready to go to bid sometime in the fall with completion
scheduled on the grading in June of 1977. Councilman Harberson indicated the
Commission had recommended the use of the approximate $90,000 bedroom tax fund
for the development of Lucchesi Park, with a portion of this to be used for
tennis courts.
Mr. Ed Zivot, President of the Petaluma Valley Little League, addressed the
Council in support of the proposal to provide more lawn areas for organized
sports. Mr. Zivot confirmed the Little Leagues would like to add their
personal effort by supplying manpower if the. City would supply the needed
funds.' He stated the combined Little Leagues and soccer clubs have a budget
of approximately $75,000. If it is necessary for them to pay for water and
irrigation, this item could be included as an operating expense. They would
like'to share and help build something for the community.
City Manager Robert Meyer also advised the Council a letter had been received
from the Chairman of the Recreation, Music, and Parks Commission asking for
further development of Lucchesi Park.
At the conclusion of all the discussions on outside requests for revenue
sharing funds, Mayor Putnam advised the different organizations the requests
were heard by the Council tonight, but no action was to be taken; it was
merely a matter_of having the Council being informed and of the various items
would be reviewed during budget sessions. Copies.of the requests with supporting
letters are on file with the City Clerk.
PETALUMA ATHLETIC Mr. Jim Rogers addressed the Council stating the
ASSOCIATION Petaluma Athletic Association was an ad hoc committee
representing approximately men, women, boys, and
girls, who participate in various sports, including
little league, football, softball, and soccer., but must compete with each
other for the use of the limited facilities in the City of Petaluma. Mr. TCzriS{eRker�
Rogers suggested if the City would provide ample lawn and grass areas, he felt
}a
the Petaluma Athletic Association could muster enough volunteers to supply
manpower to make the necessary improvements to accommodate the groups now
vieing for the various facilities.
Mr. Rogers further stated the Petaluma Athletic Association was formed to try
to coordinate the uses of facilities available to the various organizations.
All of the groups had favored and supported the various plans for Lucchesi
Park, and Mr. Rogers suggested, in the absence of a finished project at
Lucchesi Park, if a lawn area was made available to the Association, they
would do the rest of the work.
Some discussion was then held on the proposed development of Lucchesi Park.
Councilman Harberson, the Council's representative on the Recreation, Music
and Parks Commission, stated the goals and recommendations of the Commission
were to concentrate the efforts for development of Lucchesi Park. In fact, at

RECESS
PROPOSED MARINA
PHASE I FEASIBILITY
6\1' STUDY
Mayor Putnam called a recess of the Counclmat
9:07 p.m., and the meeting reconvened at 9:15 p.m.
A entitled "Phase I Feasibility Study,
Proposed Marina on the Petaluma River for the City of
Petaluma," submitted by the firm of Dames and Moore,
is on file with the City Clerk.
Community Development and Services Coordinator Frank Gray advised various
people would:)bei addressing the Council concerning the report and the proposed
Marina. Mr. Gray introduced Mr. Jim Matsueda, representing the California
Department.of Navigation and Ocean Development. Mr. Morgan Noble from the
firm of Dames and Moore introduced the consortium of consultants who had
worked on feasibility study. These included Mr. Jim Moore, the Project
Engineer from the firm of Dames and Moore which had done the engineering and
site studies; Mr. Chris Gould of the firm of Williams and Kuebelbeck & Associates,
Inc., concerned with the economic and financial feasibility study; and, the
environmental aspects of the report were handled by the firm of Laidlaw and
Associates, and representing that company at the meeting were Don Laidlaw and
Walt Smith.
Mr. Noble advised the Council the team with.him this evening would endeavor to
highlight the report.. He stated the Department of Navigation and Ocean Development
(DNOD) had raised some important questions and the report endeavors to address
these questions and provide solutions.
First to address the Council was Mr. Chris Gould, regarding the market study.
Mr. Gould stated there are 16,000 registered boats now in Sonoma County and
Marin County, of which more than half are owned by Sonoma County residents.
The rate of increase for Sonoma County is over 4 %, while that of Marin County
is approximately 2' %. 2,500 of these votes are considered berthable. The
majority the boats left in the area are located in Marin County. Mr. Gould
then'proceeded to review the report on the summary of the market study and
preliminary financial'analysis made by his company.
At the conclusion of his presentation, several questions were raised. One was
by Councilman Harberson as to how it was determined the number of boats in the
market area, to which Mr. Gould responded the figures they used were obtained
from the Department of Motor Vehicles and from the County of Sonoma. The
figures available from the State indicated the number of boats, where the
owners live.' and how boats are stored or berthed. Mr. Gould also responded to
a question raised regarding proposed berthing facilities in the area. He
indicated .a 250 - berth facility is in the planning stage for Bodega Bay.
Another 400, in addition to the 40 already constructed, would be at the mouth
of the Petaluma River, and a project sponsored by the City of San Rafael to.
berth 500 to 600 boats is in the planning stage. Mr. Gould did state, how-
ever, the demand in the market area is for 2,500 berths and there could be a
possibility of 400 of these seeking facilities somewhere along the
Petaluma River.
Mr. Morgan Noble then addressed the Council stating the primary purpose of the
market feasibility study was to determine whether or not there was a demand in
the market area. From the conclusions drawn, the report indicates a 250 -berth
marina would be self - sustaining over a period of time.. There is a demand for
dry boat storage, the restaurant, coffee shop, and related activities connected
with the marina.
Mr. Noble then referred to the engineering portion of the 'report contained in
pages 24 to 28, and by means of the viewfoil reviewed Alternate Site 1, Type A
and Type configurations which would be located near the existing launching .
ramp, and Alternate 2, Site Type B configuration which would be approximately
a mile and one -half .south'of the City. 'Mr.'Noble reviewed the six points in
the engineering evaluation covered in the report of: 1) water quality; 2)
sedimentation; 3) soil stability; 4)_navigation; 5) flooding; and 6') utili-
ties. He stated he did not feel the '12 -mile distance from San Pablo Bay would
cause any concern regarding the feasibility of the marina. The different type
of boating activity would take place on the river and many people would prefer
the protected waters of the river to those of San Pablo Bay which can become
quite choppy. Mr. Noble also stated that even though the marina was proposed
to berth 250. vessels, not all of the boats, in fact ,a very small percentage of
the boats, would be leaving the marina site for the river at any one,given
May 10, 1976
PROPOSED MARINA time. The busiest days would probably be holidays,
PHASE I FEASIBILITY such as the Fourth of July, Labor Day and Memorial
STUDY Day. Mr. Noble sad,he did not feel there were any
(Continued) problems which could not be solved; there would be a
need for some maintenance dredging and for some type
of policing at any of the sites; however, the design
of the marinas in any of the configurations would
minimize the need for dredging requirements.
Some discussion was held on the possibility of the Corps of Engineers contin-
uing to dredge the main channel of the river. 'Mr. Noble advised the Council
the Corps had been in contact with their firm; it is his understanding there
are still about five or six commercial ventures in the area which still depend
upon the river for navigation. He also stated a marina in the vicinity would
add to the.demand and the Corps would take this into consideration.when
reviewing the maintenance dredging of the river.
In his presentation of the various alternatives and sites, Mr. Noble stated
Alternate Site 1, Configuration A,.would be,adjacent to the launching ramp;
however, the City would need to acquire approximately 31 acres to accommodate
the marina at this location. On Alternate Site 1, Configuration B, the
advantage would be the property is on City -owned property'; however, easements
would need to be obtained. Mr. Noble described Site 2, which would have
access from Lakeville Highway near the Harcourt Brace building, and he es-
timates approximately 42 acres would be needed to accommodate the marina at
this site.
The third portion -of the report, Summary of Environmental Analysis, was
reviewed by Don Laidlaw. Mr. Laidlaw stated the environmental aspects of the
project were the responsibility of his firm, and in the first phase they had
reviewed all the data that had existed for the area. They had made numerous
contacts with City personnel; however,, they did not carry out any precise
research in the field other than having an archeolgical review made. No
archeological sites were found. If the development proceeds to Phase II, they
would have the responsibility of preparing,the environmental impact report for
the project. Mr. Laidlaw also advised many of .the environmental aspects had
been contained in the, E.I..R. prepared by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers for
the dredging of the river. Mr. Laidlaw stated the general concerns regarding
the environmental impact of a marina in the area can all be mitigated by
proper.engineering design with effective input and control from the public
agencies.
Mr. Laidlaw stated he had been in constant contact with the firm of Dames and
Moore and the City staff in order to prepare the preliminary report being
presented to the City Council. Many of the items to which the report refers,
such as soil erosion, flood plain storm flows, and other technical matters,
would be handled by the engineering team in the development of any of the
sites.
With relation to the income and feasibility of the project, Mr. Noble asked
Chris, Gould to explain the source of funding for the proposed project. Mr.
Gould stated the primary source of funding would be from the Department of
Navigation and Ocean Development. DNOD has a construction loan program
available to provide funds at 4z% interest over a 30 -year term. During the
first five- years, repayment can be limited to the capability of the project.
Other sources of funding will be explored; however, the most likely prospect
seems to be DNOD. Mr. Gould explained one aspect of the initial cost DNOD
would not finance would be the.acquisition of land. The City would have to
have a proprietary interest in any land on which the marina is to be con-
structed, either through purchase or a long -term lease. Sources.of revenue
which could be anticipated by the City would be for the boat slips and the dry
storage, and rent from the restaurant, coffee shop and the marina store. The
latter facilities would be constructed and operated by the leasees. Mr. Gould
then proceeded to review Table 1, page 18 of the report, the preliminary test
and comparison of financial feasibility on the three sites.
Vice -Mayor Mattei questioned if the project was not successful, would the
responsibility for repayment of the loan fall back on the City and the tax-
payers. Mr. Jim Matsueda of the Department of Navigation and Ocean Develop-
ment advised if and when the City entered into a contract, all the ramifi-
cations would be clarified in the loan documents. All revenues in the project
area would be pledged for maintenance and operation, and repayment of the
mortgage. Mr. Matsueda stated it was his understanding it would be illegal
for the City to pledge revenue from the tax base in order to repay the loan.

PROPOSED MARINA Councilman Cavanagh referred to a letter received by
PHASE I FEASIBILITY the City dated December 10, 1975, from DNOD, and asked
STUDY Mr. Matsueda if the five points in the letter had been
(Continued) adequately answered by the report given this evening.
Mr'. Matsueda indicated the five items in the letter
were not the only matters to be considered. He had
worked with Frank Gray before the preparation of the report to have certain
matters addressed in the Phase I feasibility study. Some of items had had
adequate analysis; however, he still felt there was some concern about the 11-
mile journey up the river and the width of the river, which should be further
emphasized if Phase II of the project is to proceed. He further indicated the
cost of dredging.and the disposal of. spoils should be more adequately addressed
in the second'phase of the study.
City Manager Robert. Meyer asked Mr. Matsueda if he felt there would be a
problem if the City did not own the land surrounding of any of the marina
sites. Mr. Matsueda responded by stating he felt the marina would enhance the
property values of.private persons on three sides of the marina, thus creating
a problem which .would not be acceptable. He stated the City should own all of
the land surrounding the marina. Mr. Matsueda questioned the compatibility of
a restaurant being placed on Alternate 1 site in view of the fact the tallow
works is located in the vicinity. He did state almost every successful marina
has factors which draw boaters and some of these are a good restaurant, fuel
facilities, a coffee shop, and other marina related activities. These 'Are the
types of things which tend to make a project of this type feasible,
At the conclusion of the presentation the City Manager asked Mr. Matsueda what
time schedule the Council woul& have to meet in order to apply for the DNOD
loan. Mr. Matsueda said the application, which consists of'the feasibility
study, the draft.environmental impact report., and a resolution from the City
Council, would have to be submitted by July 1, 1976. Mayor Putnam asked the
City Manager how the scheduling could be arranged and Mr. Meyer responded by
stating the matter should come back to the City Council at the May 17th.
meeting. Mr. Gray indicated the staff at that time would need some direction
from the City Council whether not to proceed with Phase II of the feasi-
bility study and to have the Council determine which site and which confi-
guration they preferred. Mr.'Matsueda said, in the interim, the. City, DNOD,
and the consultants should work closely together if the project is to proceed.
When asked which site he felt would be the most feasible, Mr. Matsueda said
Alternate 1, and he did not indicate whether. Configuration A or B should be
selected; however, he did state he felt the closer to the City the project is
located, the more feasible it would be. The City's responsibility would be to
provide the land, the access road and the utilities.
Mr. Bob McLaughlin briefly commented on the marina project, stating he hoped
some consideration would be given in Phase II to accommodating visiting .yacht
clubs in order to be able to have the capability of.taking some of the over-
flow of the various organizations which like to visit Petaluma. He pointed
out over the upcoming Memorial Day weekend, three different yacht clubs from
the Bay Area plan to make the trip to.Petaluma.
Mayor Putnam requested the matter be brought back before the Council at the
May 17, 1976 meeting.
