Affidavit of Publication and Certificates of Mailing and Posting Notice of Hearing on Assessment were ordered filed on motion of Council-~n Gilmore, seconded by Councilman Markel and carried. In the absence of the Clerk of the Council~ the Assistant Clerk of the Council presented the diagram and assessment to the Council. Franklin T. Hamilton, 523 W. 6th Street, Los Angeles, Special Counsel, explained the purpose of the hearing. Ronald Wolford, Director of Public CITY COUNCIL - 497 - April 4, 1966 Works, testified that the work was constructed in substantial cGmpliance with the plans and specifications, and that under his direction the assessment was prepared and spread by Patrick N. Rossetti of the firm of L. J. Thompson, Inc., that in his opinion the assessment had been spread upon the lots or parcels of land in the district subject to assessment in proportion to the benefits arising frcm the work and to be received by each such lot or parcel. In response to questions by ~r. Hamilton, the Director of Public Works stated the district included lands owned by various public agencies and that they had been assessed upon the same basis as private property. He identified the Willowick Golf Course lands owned by the City of Garden Grove, particularly Parcel No. 213. He stated that previously a sewer connection charge had been paid to the City of Santa Ana for the privilege of connecting Parcel No. 213 to then existing Santa Aha sewer system and recommended that the City of Santa Aha refund a portion of such charge, such refund to be in the amount assessed against Parcel No. 213. Mr. Patrick N. Rossetti explained the method of spreading the assessment based on costs of laterals runni~ from the property line to the sewer line, frontage charges and acreage charges. He related that the golf course was included in the District and that he had been furnished with a deed frc~ the Garden Grove Recreational Facility which deeded the golf course property to the City of Garden Grove~ reserving to the private corporation an estate for 50 years, so that fee title is in Garden Grove subject to the 50 year estate. He stated that this had been assessed in the same manner as other public property, such as the County and Drainage District parcels. The Assistant Clerk read in full letters frGn the following: Garden Grove Willowick Recreational Facility, Inc., protesting the assessment; Earl H. Nicholson, l~15 Ocean Avenue, Santa Monica, stating he no longer owns property in this area~ and Mrs° C. F. Meador, 513 N. Bewley, Church of God, stating the Church has not been able to tie into the sewer. On motion of Councilman Brooks, seconded by Councilman N~rkel and carried~ the letters were ordered filed. Mr. Hamilton recc~m~ended to the Council either (i) that the assessment upon Parcel No. 213 be deleted, in which case the entire assessment would have to be re-spread, or a contribution made by the City of Santa Aha or (ii) that a portion of the sewer charge~ at least equal to the assessment upon Parcel No. 213, be refunded. Nr. Willard Pool, 1255 Brookhurst, Garden Grove, appeared on behalf of the City of Garden Grove and the Garden Grove Recreational Facility, and questioned Nr. Rossetti in regard to lateral and acreage charges. Mr. Rossetti explained the charges and further stated that if all the property in the assessment district were developed at this time, there would be adequate capacity in the sewer system to serve all such property. Mr. Ray Mercado, of Nat Neff Engineering, engineer of work for the City of Santa Ana, stated that the capacity is predicated on the present zoning in the assessment district, which is R 2, and that the design was developed on the basis of R 2 zoning. He stated that the sewer facilities constructed for the assessment district were sufficient to serve all lands within the district when fully developed for R 2 uses. Mr. Pool questioned the Director of Public Works regarding Assessment District 218 which had been assessed to construct sewers in the vicinity of the Willowick Golf Course. Mr. Wolford stated that the Golf Course had not been included in such district or assessed to pay the cost of such sewers. He further stated that when the Golf Course was provided service in such sewers the City of Santa Ana required payment of sewer connection charges therefor, such charges being the equivalent of what would have been paid had the Golf Course been included within Assessment District No. 218. Parcel No. 213 was part of the area for which such connection charges were impose~. Kr. Pool stated that the entire assessment owned by the City of Garden Grove and Garden Grove-Willowick Recreational should not be confirmed, because the Golf Course is not to be benefitted. He also cited a Section 5301 of the Streets and Highways Code which he felt applied. Mr. Hamilton repeated his earlier recommendation and stated that Section 5301 of the Streets and Highways Code was not applicable since the resolution of CITY COUNCIL - ~98 - April ~, 1966 intention did not emit public property from assessment. He also stated that there were some property splits and errors in description for some parcels and that these should be corrected. There being no further testimony, the hearing was closed.

CROSSING - Mayor Harvey announced the placing 1 ~7~N~ & L]~WOOD on the agenda at this point the problem that exists at 17th and Linwood whereby children must cross a heavily congested street in order to get to school and week-end events. Approxim-tely 75 residents of the area were in the audience. Mayor Harvey questioned the City Manager regarding a solution. The City Manager stated that because 17th Street does carry large amounts of traffic, the installation of signals at every intersection would make the street useless; that the matter when previously before Council was remRnded to the residents of the area for the purpose of attempting to form an assessment district; that construction of park south of 17th Street would eliminate much of the after school hours crossing. Testimony was heard from the following residents in the area for an Immediate remedy to the problem: Charles Clemenson, 1512 E. Washington, Noel Conway, Vice President Santa Aha East Hc~eowners Association, Frank Criger, lO21 N. Wright, Delbert Connor~ 1442 E. 17th, Mrs. Donald Morgan, 1511 E. Stafford, and Mrs. Helen Boggs, 1521 E. Washington. The City Attorney and Franklin T. Hamilton, Special Counsel, questioned the legality of formation of an assessment district to construct the pedestrian bridge because the benefit must be to the land in the district. The Public Works Director informed Council of the time element involved in installation of a push button signal and suggested the possibility of a cul-de-sac of Llnwood. State regulations governing school crossing signs was explained by the City N~nager, who noted that the City has complied with them completely. Council discussed possibility of reducing speed limit and the Chief of Police related that since this is a major street, it is difficult to abruptly reduce speed. It was moved by Councilman Gilmore, seconded by Councilman Brooks that a push button signal be installed i-.,ediately; that the City Attorney be directed to consult with the leaders of the group to prepare documents for them to attempt to create an assessment district, and a study be initiated to determine which method will work.

STREET LIGHTING The Public Works Director reported ~L to the Council regarding the request from Greer Bros. Enterprises to install Edison Co. street light- Lng in lieu of individual post lights, required as condition of approval by Council on 7-6-65 for Tentative Tract 6007. Mr. Greer told Council that he had intended to install the individual post lights, but the problem arose because several homes will not be built in the area for two or three years, thus he is not able to satisfy the Public Works Department regarding the condition of lights in the sub-division; therefore the bond for the tract will not be released. Dr. John H. Holliday, 1223 River Lane, property owner in the area, spoke in opposition to the installation of Edison lighting. The City Manager stated that there had been no problem as far as criminal activity in this area, however, ~uless lights are installed this problem will arise. The Manager suggested that Mr. Greet obtain a deed restriction that would require future residential occupants to install the individual post lights as approved by previous Council. Mr. M~ron Potter, 1231 River Lane, felt that an agreement could be reached among the remaining property owners for future property owners to install the individual post lights. The City M~nager stated that since Mr. Greer had sold remaining vacant lots he had no right of entry to the property, therefore, he would have to get the people to sign a deed restriction. It was moved by Councilman Brooks, seconded by Co,~ucilman McMichael and carried, that the request from Greer Bros. Enterprises to install Edison Co. street lighting in lieu of individual post lights for Tentative Tract 6007, be denied. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS Mr. Reg Wood, 1212 N.
