s I'UBLIC COMMEN'T
9 Kay Russo, 837 Rancho Way -(1) She asked that the Council look into the possibility of
io televising the 3:00 meetings. (2) She asked that there be reconsideration of the Traffic
i i Committee recommendation to extend a Sonoma Mountain Parkway median which will
i2 result in `no left turn' ingress or egress at Madison Street. (3) She feels that there should be
~3 no public sale of "safe and sane" fireworks at all in town, and she expressed her support of
ia the Council's future discussion on the subject. (4) Having the community fireworks display
is at Lucchesi Park is causing considerable congestion on streets which access the hospital. (5)
i6 She would like to see the community fireworks display return to the Fairgrounds.
i~ Councilwoman Stompe asked City Manager Gene Beatty to look into televising the
is afternoon City Council meetings, to refer the comments of Mrs. Russo about Madison Street
i9 and Sonoma Mountain Parkway back to the Traffic Committee, and to look at moving the
Zo community fireworks display to the Fairgrounds~
2~ Police Officer Bixler - City Manager Beatty noted that Officer Bixler had requested approval
Za of closing East D Street between Edith Street and Vallejo Street on Saturday, June 28,
z3 between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. for a Neighborhood Fair and Rummage Sale. The
2a donations will fund neighborhood crime prevention programs. Since this is a busy street and
Zs the City Council would wish to make the street closure determination, the matter has been
26 brought to the Council. All seven of the Mayor and Councilmembers nodded their heads
z~ affirmatively about closing the street for the Neighborhood Fair and expressed their hope
za that it will be successful.

23 Resolution 97-150 NCS approving an agreement for collection and disposal of garbage,
za rubbish, waste matter, and recyclables and street sweeping within the City of Petaluma. The
as City Council Refuse subcommittee (Vice Mayor Hamilton, Councilwoman Stompe and
26 Councilman Maguire) has been meeting publicly with representatives of Empire Waste
2~ Management to discuss several issues. The contract changes the termination provision from
Zs a five-year contract with an annual one-year roll-over provision to a fixed seven year
29 contract with a three-year notice for termination or contract extension, if agreed to by both
3o parties. It was noted the "leakage for bad debt" in Petaluma amounts to $100,000 annually.
3~ The City Council refined some wording changes in the document. The contract document
s2 incorporates the original base contract and subsequent amendments; therefore, the prior
33 contract resolutions are repealed. James Landa, Empire Waste Management, advised the
34 Council that his company agrees to submit to the City an annual audited financial statement
3s showing revenues and expenses. This shall occur on or about May 31 of each year. Staff
36 was asked to provide Councilwoman Torliatt with copies of the old reports which contain
3~ the numbers she wished to see.

June 16, 1997 Vol. 30, Page 3~&7
~ Mr. Landa was asked to help the River Festival with their trash problems. James Landa was
2 told that Vice Mayor Hamilton's trash collection driver asked her not to use the 20 gallon
s automatic garbage can because it falls into the garbage truck, and the driver has to climb into
a the rejectamenta to retrieve the refuse container. Mr. Landa said he would see that there is a
s soiution to that problem. What the refiise company is using for the 20 gallon can meant for
6 automatic pick-up by the garbage trucks is a 35-gallon automatic pick-up container which is
~ modified on the interior to hold only 20 gallons of refuse.
, a Councilman Keller asked staff to make note of the questions he has been asking about the
9 garbage contract and rates, because that is the same line of thinking that he has on the sewer
~o contract and rates. He is particularly interested in safeguards for the rate-payer.

44 TO REFLECT ~.ARGEIt STiJDY AREA
45 `I'he Council discussed approval of an amendment to the workplan for the preparation of the
46 Central Petaluma Specific Plan. This proposal amends the specific plan boundary to include
a~ properties with a frontage on Second Street.
Page 348, Vol. 30 June 16, 1997
~ There was some discussion about bringing the entire westerly boundary to either I'etaluma
2 Blvd. South or even more westerly to Keller Street. The committee had discussed the
3 various potential boundary changes, and that is the recommendation that was before the City
a Council. Persons who had a question about that were invited to attend the Central Petaluma
s Specific Plan meetings. Specifical'ly the committee wished to include both "immediate"
6 sides of the river in their scope of planning. Jeff Harriman, Downtown Association, said
~ that adding the area on the west side of Petaluma River will be of great value to the
s Downtown.
9 Jay McNabb expressed concern that the new study area would create delays in the planning
io process. He owns property near the Great Petaluma Mill.
~ i Paul Lewis, representing Bar Ale, Ash Bag, and other sites, said they already are five years
~2 into a plan of their own, and he is very concerned that this planning effort will cause delays
~3 in his master plan.
ta Bryant Moynihan has concerns about the size of the area. It began as 283 acres and novv has
~s grown to 330 acres. He also asked why not include the downtown. ~-Ie was asked to bring
ib his concerns to the committee..
» Several persons said they had not been notified of the agenda topic.
is As a result of the fact that some persons were not included in a mail notice, the issue was
~9 continued to July 7.
zo ADI) TO CEN'TItAL PE'TAI~UMA SPECIF'IC PI,AN COIVIM~'~"T~E
z~ The City Council asked staff to advertise for two additional positions on the Central
z2 Petaluma Specific Plan Committee from property or business owners from within the
23 proposed new area. This was continued to July 7.
Za RAILROAD LINE AND BiJS TERMINAY,
Zs Railroad Mainline Discussion - The Council was asked if there were a preferred route for the
26 railroad main line to take. One choice is the current main line that runs a straight line along
2~ Lakeville past the railroad depot. The otlier choice is to use the line which is more westerly,
as closer to the river, but the path is curved, approximately at Jefferson Street, towards the river
Zs near Copeland Street. 'I'hen it traverses along that westerly line towards Baylis Street and
so meets the main line about a block south of the old Lucky Store on West Payran Street. The
3i latter line is called a"drill" line. The City Council's response to the inquiry was the
32 committee should study both possible rail line routes.
s3 Jim lZyan, Transit Coordinator, addressed the Council and advised them that he has been
34 working on funding for a transit center at the train depot location for a number of years.
3s There are a total of five separate grant sources to the City for this project which are
36 imminent and delays could jeopardize the potential grants for the Copeland Street Transit
s~ Mall as well as jeopardizing future STA funding for Paratransit operations. Mr. Ryan was
3s r~quested by the City Council to see if funding could be temporarily postponed (six months)
39 and he vvas inv~ted to attend the next Central Petaluma Specific Plan committee meeting on
ao July 1.

McNear I,andin~ Assessment District
a Finance Director David Spilman reviewed the Assessment District process and answered
3 some City Council questions.
a Bond Counsel Robert Brunsell explained that the City is not made liable for repayment of
s the debt. This is a lien on private property, and repayment is the responsibility of the
6 various property owners.
~ At the time the prospective home buyer is closing out the various activities in connection
a with purchasing the home, he/she will have the opportunity to either make full payment of
9 that homesite's portion of the assessment or choose to have a lien placed on his property so
~o that their portion of the assessment is paid over a 20-year period with the property taxes. It
~ i is estimated that each parcel is liable for a$10,000 assessment, which would be their portion
~2 of the assessment cost. The subdivision will have 165 single family homes on single lots
13 and 20 duplexes on 10 lots. Annual assessments are anticipated to be less than $900 per
~a year.
~s Dan Aguilar, representing the developer Bijan Madjlessi, President of Masma Construction,
~6 Inc., answered questions. He noted that at an earlier time, some infrastructure was put in
r~ place on the subdivision. This prior work will have to be removed and replaced.

a PU'g'NA1VI PLAZA MODYFICA'~IONS
s The Recreation, Music and Parks Commission offered two proposed design changes for
6 Putnam Plaza. Both suggestions dealt with the planting area located at the back of the
~ park adjacent to American Alley and to the building on the Western Avenue side of the
s park. Currently Starbucks Coffee shop is at the front end of that side of the park and the
9 restrooms are at the same side in the rear of the park. Both suggested modification
~o reduce the size of the planter by 50% to allow more roorn for movement by wheelchair
~~ bound individuals and to reduce the impact that may occur by people sitting on the sides
t2 of the planter. One would be in the shape of a trapezoid and the other would be shaped
i3 like one-half of an octagon.
ia The City Council also heard Steve Arago describe an enhanced version of the preferred
is design. This enhanced version could include closing the alley during certain daytirne
ib hours, would add some ornamental ironwork, some planters on the walls of buildings
» located in the alley, could add some tables and chairs for people eating lunch, and would
is increase the area of the alley which is covered with paving brick. This alternative would
i9 add another $12,000 to the cost of the improvements.
zo Linda Buffo of the Downtown Association, Eliana Ray who has a business fronting
z i Putnam Plaza, and Jeff Harriman of the Downtown Association spoke in support of the
22 design. They asked the Council to include the enhanced modifications to their budget in
23 the future. It was noted that Tom Baker, a downtown property owner, has offered to
aa donate $1,500 to this project.
as The City Council supported the design which reshaped the planter into a shape that could
26 be described as a half of an octagon. The two trees which would no longer be in the
2~ planter would remain and the tree grates would be ~owered to pavement level. The
Za preferred conceptual design vvith the half-octagon planter is estimated to cost $10,000.
29 T'he City Council asked that there be an additional bench placed just outside of Starbucks
3o Coffee for additional shaded seating.

~ There was some discussion about the video camera that had been referred to by a property
z owner. Some Councilmembers oppose its placement in the Plaza. A Councilmember
3 reminded the others that a video camera would have been helpful to control the vandalism
a that has occurred at Prince Park. Also the Council reminded staff to keep the property
s owners informed of the project status. It was hoped the project could be completed
6 before the end of the year.

s The City Council discussed the City Manager selection process at length. It was agreed
9 that the City Council would enter into an agreement with Gene Beatty for up to one year
io and to search for a new City Manager. Speakers were Matt Connolly who represents the
i~ Factory Stores, spoke in favor of taking action to retain Gene Beatty now, because
~z another City may just find him to be the person they want. On the other hand, Sheri
~3 Cardo, said it is absolute naivete to think $12,000 is too much to spend on looking or a
~a new City Manager. Gene Beatty, Acting City Manager, told the Council that it would be
is better for everyone if they went through with a City Manager selection process.
~ 6 It was moved by Nancy Read and seconded by Mary Stompe to enter into a contract to

39 Recreation Director Jim Carr noted that several of the landscape assessment district
ao (LAD) areas are not being assessed a sufficient amount of money to compensate for the
a~ landscape assessment district maintenance costs. Currently there are 31 landscape
az assessment districts in the City of Petaluma.
Page 354, Vol. 30
June 16, 1997
i Although the landscape assessment districts have been taking 30% of the Recreation
2 Director's work time and 20% of one of the Lead Worker's work time, administrative
3 costs have not been allocated to these assessmerit districts. Besides the major staff time
a requirement, the remaining two big issues are tree maintenance and vandalism. It may be
s helpful to have outreach neighborhood meetings to work on these issues. This would be
6 an opportunity for the neighbors to advise the City what things they feel could be xevxsed
