Mr. Bob Oliver and Mr. Bob McClelland addressed
the Council to report on progress made since their
last meeting with the Council on June 19, 1972, and
Mr. McClelland presented plot plans for the area
bounded by Peach Street, Long Beach Boulevard,
Imperial Highway and Sanborn Avenue.
Councilman Byork arrived.
Vacation of Peach Street and widening of Long Beach
Boulevard was discussed. In considering the time
involved to commence the project, the Council was
informed that a major factor is the widening of
the boulevard which is dependent on the County
negotiating for acquisition of the necessary
parcels of property and completion of the engineering
work.
Mr. Oliver informed the Council that it is vitally
important that the developer acquire the surplus
property remaining from the widening project,
either by purchase or lease from the city. The
Public Works Director was questioned about the
acquisition of right of way and he informed the
Council that the County has indicated they are
now in the process of completing their appraisal
report. The matter will then go to the land
management division to begin negotiations for
acquisition of the property on the west side of
Long Beach Boulevard.
Following informal discussion of the project generally
among members of the Council, the developers, and
members of the Planning Commission present, the
Mayor requested Mr. Wright to urge early action on
the part of the County in their land acquisition
activities, and the Council was assured that they
would do so and that the city would proceed with
the necessary engineering and continue to meet with
Mr. Oliver.
It was moved by Councilman Liewer, seconded by Council-
man Byork, and carried, that the meeting be adjourned
to August 15, 1972, at 7 p.m.
