Mr.' Young indicated the Engineering Division could update the cost estimates for the City Council's: consideration. He agreed with the letter from the Petaluma Estates Mobile Home Park Associ- ation the road was in poor condition and had originally been built to a low County road standard and was not designed for the urban traffic it now has. To reconstruct the road, he indicated, would be a very expensive project. I June 16, 1975 City Manager Robert -Meyer advised the .southern portion of McDowell Boulevard had been in the same condition; however., with the growth in the area, the road has been brought up to standard with the exception of a small portion. As subdivisions are built, the public improvements become a part of the subdi- vision agreement. He also reminded the Council another very large project is proposed, that of widening Washington Street which will be financed under other funds from the Federal government. Mr. Andy Anderson,.President of the Petaluma Estates Mobile Home Park Associ- ation, then spoke to the Council. Mr. Anderson stated the matter was orig- inally brought before the Council in 1973 and then again in 1974, and now in 1975 they are bringing the matter to the Council's attention again. He estimated there are over 1,200 residents in the area using the road daily with an average of 800 to 1,000 cars traversing the road each day. He also indi- cated he had taken an automobile count in a six - minute period this date between 2:30 and 2:36 and counted 52 cars. Mr. Anderson did state the City Street Division had been repairing the road for approximately two weeks to fill some of the chuckholes and felt this was a waste of taxpayers' money because it had to be repeated so often. He called to the Council's attention there are.three mobile home parks in the area now and an additional one being constructed. City Manager Robert Meyer advised the Council the five -year capital outlay project would be reviewed'and brought back to City Council as soon as the Maintenance and Operation Budget is completed for the City, which would probably be sometime in July. He also advised the members of the audience they would be notified of the date the Council would hear the matter. Another member of the audience, Mr. Sam Mostovoy,.urged the Council to give serious consideration to reconstructing the road because school buses use the 'road 'constantly and it is too"d'angerous for transporting children. Mr. George Ruddock said that only about one -third of the territory from East Washington to Corona Road was in the City limits. He urged the Council to determine what steps the County would take to continue the road through Redwood Highway. Mr..Ruddock also advised the Council the County had spent a great deal of money improving Stony Point Road from Pepper Road to Liberty Road where there was very.little traffic and felt they should give greater consideration to participation in improving McDowell Road where there was•a great deal of traffic. Mr. Anderson again spoke to the Council advising that when traffic has to be detoured from the Freeway, McDowell Boueevard North is used as a by- pass. No action was taken on the matter. The staff is to contact the County of Sonoma and the Petaluma Estates Mobile Home Park Association and other mobile home parks in the area ate to be notified of the hearing in July.

Mr. Hudson further.advised 93% of the work is completed on the project. He foresees no with the City Charter. Director of Public Works David Young further commented stating the Envir- onmental Protection Agency has'requested the change in projects already in progress. In fact; they have asked where it would be legally possible,, to reduce the retention on construction from 10% to 5 %; however, this request. would conflict with the City's Charter.

The City's letter, to be signed by the Mayor, endorses the proposed standards and indicates they are in accordance with the philosophy and pro - grams - of the City of Petaluma. The letter does ask, however, that implementation of the program be coordinated with, but not totally dependent upon, the County's "general plan and its various projections. Further, its the City's feeling where local jurisdictions generated sufficient data to supplement or supercede County information, this data should be used in the evaluation of that jurisdiction's spheres of influence.

Mr. Hudson stated every attempt'is being made have the bonding company complete the project rather than.have them pay the City and have the City complete it. PARKING MANAGEMENT Mr. Frank Gray; Director of Community Development, PLAN GUIDELINES indicated the request for cooperation by the City of / Petaluma in the preparation of the Parking Management ` Plan Guidelines was far less extensive than previously reported at the June 2, 1975, Council meeting. In talking with the consultants, Alan M. Voorhees and Associates, they have requested the City send them public documents of the City in order that-they may prepare parking guidelines for a typical city of 30,000 people. Some of the information they have asked for is parking data, which has.already been prepared for the City. Mr. Gray indicated the matter could be handled now at staff level. SEWER REFUND City Attorney Matthew Hudson advised the Council he AGREEMENT= -DEBRA had prepared - a resolution carrying out the recommendation HOMES, INC. of the City Engineer and the City`Manager, which would (WESTRIDGE) provide the waiver of sewer connection frees for the RES 47005 NCS first 106 lots and a $5.83 charge per front foot for the balance. In addition, some money has already been paid by Debra which would be refunded to them' to the extent they have paid on which the sewer are waived;. Mr. Hudson further explained the agreement is a typical sewer refund agreement which 'the City enters into. Mr. George Tomasini, a resident'in the area, speaking for himself and for Mr. Paul Dane, advised the Council they had given the right -of -way to the Westridge Subdivision at no charge; whereas other property owners-in the area had received• renumeration for the right -of -way. They had heard there was going to be an assessment for the - difference in the size the pipeline, but Mr. Tomasini indicated Mr. Trowbridge is forwarding a letter to both he and Mr. Dane relieving them of any obligation for the difference in the size of the pipeline. Mr. Trowbridge, representing Debra Homes, Inc., advised the Council the matter.had been agreed upon. Mr_ Robert Mackey, attorney representing residents in the area, expressed some concern that in addition to Mr. Tomasini and Mr. Dane there may be other residents in the area who were not aware of the meeting this evening and would have no opportunity to respond. Mr. Trowbridge interjected saying that the agreements between'Debra Homes and Mr.-Tomasini and Mr. Dane would be consumated. 'The agreements with other property owners in the area were private agreements between the property owner and Debra Homes, Inc., and would be carried through on an individual basis. Mr. Mackey asked that the City Council give serious consideration to making certain 'the property owners had been properly reimbursed by Condiotti Enterprises for the easements or right -of -ways before any transfers are completed. City Attorney Matt*Hudson advised that Mr. Condiotti can convey a clear title to the easements, the City would not make any refund under the agreement. City Manager Robert Meyer advised the Council that Mr. Condiotti has to give the City clear title to all the easements before the City.will accept the subdivision. Mrs. Ted King of 1400 "1" Street Extension asked to.have the matter clarified of how the charges would be applied to - property in the.area. Mr. Meyer explained to -her the subdivider Mr. Condiotti, was - paying for the sewer line; however, .the payback agreement provides for $5.83 a front foot from property owners because of the oversized line in the area. Another member of the audience to speak was Mr. Alvin Baldwin who indicated he had 19.0 foot frontage on the line.. He has been desirous of being able to hook up to the City's sewer system; however, he feels that the cost involved would be financially impossible. i June 16, 1975 At the conclusion of the discussion, Resolution. #7005 N.C.S. authorizing a sanitary sewer refund agreement for Debra Homes, Inc., and authorizing the Mayor to execute the same, was introduced by Councilman Perry, seconded by Councilman Brunner, and-approved by 7 affirmative votes.
