SUBJECT: CENTURY (ROUTE 105) FREEWAY
Gentlemen:
0
As you know, 35 City, State, and Federal officials met on March 15, 1972
to develop a course of action to urge the Governor and the Legislature of
the State of California to accelerate completion of the Route 105 Freeway
at the earliest possible date.
The first item of business was a status report indicating that of the 6300
parcels required to be taken to provide the right -of -way for this freeway,
3300 parcels had already been acquired at a cost of $90 million. This 35
miles of freeway will cost 2 billion dollars -- approximately 50% for
acquisition and 50% for construction. The State Division of Highways has
held 7 design hearings as well as entered into 22 separate agreements with
13 of the agencies involved.
The Division of Highways is deeply concerned about requirements to meet
deadlines. By July 1, 1973, the State must demonstrate to the Federal
Government their intention to complete this project.
Following a general discussion it was the consensus of the City representatives
to (1) recommend that their City Councils adopt resolutions urging the Gover-
nor and Legislature of the State to develop legislation allowing completion of the
Route 105 Freeway,at the earliest possible date, and (2) recommend that each
individual City develop an affidavit outlining the critical problems posed to
that City by further delay of this project.
RECOMMENDATION:
(1) Council adoption of a Resolution entitled: "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY
COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LYNWOOD REQUESTING THE GOVERNOR AND
LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO ENACT URGENCY LEGIS-
LATION TO PERMIT THE PROMPT COMPLETION OF THE ROUTE 105 FREEWAY,"
and (2) authorize the City Manager to prepare, execute, and file an affidavit outlining
the critical problems posed to this City by further delay of the project.

HONORABLE MAYOR AND
MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT: Employee Group Health Insurance
Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Council direction, staff has been reviewing a number of group
health insurance proposals in an effort to find coverage which provides
for employee conversion of insurance coverage once he leaves the City
of Lynwood. Insurance companies were provided with information on
basic coverage desired and proposals were then submitted on similar
plans which maintain some type of conversion coverage. In the process
of making this review, information was received which indicated that due
to claims experience over the past year, the City's current insurance
premiums with Western Life Insurance Company will increase from
$17. 28 per employee and $32. 69 for dependents to $24.23 per employee
and $46. 91 for dependents, effective April 15, 1972. This increase in
the employee premium will amount to an additional annual cost of
approximately $14, 600 to the City. ($4, 250 for the remainder of this
fiscal year).
Attached is a synopsis of the basic proposals which were reviewed, a
summary of the benefits provided by each company and a review of the
insurance premiums as they would relate to the City. The four propo-
sals reviewed were Western Life Insurance Company (current policy);
Prudential Insurance; Blue Cross of Southern California and State 'of
California PERS plan. After a thorough review, it is proposed that the
Council consider making a change from the City's current policy to the
Blue Cross coverage. The mazdmum benefits allowed for each .related
accident or illness under Blue Cross is $50, 000 with 100 coverage
after the first $2, 000. Other aspects of the plan either equal or exceed
the group health insurance plan currently in effect plus three alternative
conversion plans for employees leaving the City service. In addition, a
cost savings is received by the City in the form of claims administration.
In the past, the City has handled the paperwork of insurance claims;
however, Blue Cross will process all claims filed under this policy.
Insurance premiums for the Blue Cross plan are $18. 75 per employee
and an additional $31. 99 to cover the employee's dependents. This
increase in cost of the employee insurance premium is the least of all
plans surveyed and will amount to an increased annual cost of $3, 087 to
the City. ($900 for the remainder of this fiscal year).
One of the concerns of the City Council was that of providing conversion
coverage for Mrs. Mary Williams prior to her retirement from the City.
�,3
.. 0
0
Mrs. Williams plans to retire, effective March 31, 1972 and it is
therefore proposed that Council adopt this coverage effective March
15, 1972, Representatives from the Police Association, Fire Assoc-
iation and Miscellaneous Employees Association have all reviewed the
proposals and are in agreement with the staff recommendation,
RECOMMENDATION
Council move to cancel the coverage of Western Life Insurance Company,
effective March 15, 1972 and accept the proposal of Blue Cross of
Southern California for employee group health insurance coverage
during the twelve month period from March 15, 1972 to March 15, 1973
at the premium rates as outlined in the study.

SUBJECT: REAL ESTATE ADVERTISING SIGN ORDINANCES
Gentlemen:
Due to the proliferation of oversized real estate signs and multiple signs on
individual parcels which has been a concern to the City Council, Staff has
prepared Ordinance modifications for Council consideration.
Basically, the ordinances would reduce the present sign area from six square
feet to 150 inches in size. Furthermore, the Ordinance would require that the
sign be placed parallel with the sidewalks and therefore only a single face sign
and shall be set back 15 feet from the sidewalk. Also the Ordinance provides
that the sign shall be removed on the date the property enters escrow.
RECOMMENDATION:

SUBJECT: UNAUTHORIZED REMOVAL OF SHOPPING CARTS
Gentlemen:
Individual members of the Council have indicated concern over a number of
requests from local merchants for help in the matter of unauthorized removal
of shopping carts. This has been an item of growing concern to many of the
retail grocery markets in Southern California and attached is a letter from
McCoys Markets relating to this problem. This letter indicates that the
City of Paramount has recently adopted an ordinance which attempts to
resolve the matter and since adoption has received some positive results.
Also attached for Council consideration is response to the local Chamber
of Commerce questionaire relating to the same problem, an editorial from
the Long Beach Press Telegram entitled, "Vanishing Shopping Carts ", and
a proposed ordinance for the City of Lynwood designed along the lines of the
Paramount legislation.
The ordinance makes it a misdemeanor for any person, firm or corporation
to remove, abandon, possess, or alter a shopping cart belonging to any busi-
ness establishment in the community which has an affixed sign identifying
it as belonging to the owner or operator of said business. Response from
communities which have initiated such legislation has been favorable to date
and therefore the Council may wish to consider adopting the attached ordi-
nance in order to aid the businessmen of the City of Lynwood.
RE COMMENDATION:
Council adoption of the attached ordinance relating to the unauthorized removal,
use, or possession of shopping carts.

Gentlemen:
In our continuing effort to maintain a proper environment in the
community, we would like to bring a problem to your attention which
affects not only the local merchants, but the appearance of your city
o.
as well.
The problem: The Lonely Shopping'Cart.
As you are well aware, tens, even hundreds of these carts are
abandoned thru -out the community. People do their shopping and, due
to the amount of merchandise which they must transport, often remove
j a cart from the store to "aid themselves with the items purchased.
Others use the carts for laundry baskets, trash bins, rabbit hutches
and a wide variety of other uses.
Most firms employ the use of "Cart Return Companies ", who attempt to
search out and return the carts to their proper owner. We have found,
however, that the number returned never matches the number lost and we
are faced with the problem of replacing such carts at a cost of approximately
$ 34.00 each with newly manufactured baskets, the cost of which is eventually
reflected in the prices of the merchandise which we offer to the citizens

residing in your community.
We feel that the city of Paramount, California has taken a unique
(wow!) approach to this problem.
Recently, the Paramount City Council enacted a Municipal Ordinance
which deals strictly, with shopping carts. Attached you will find a
copy for your parusal.
It is our opinion that the enactment of such an ordinance in your
city would be of great benefit to the merchants in your area,
Our object is not "to throw everyone in jail" for the removal of
,
carts. We have found that in the City of Paramount our store received
many calls from the local residents who "found" a cart and wanted same
removed from their property. This we were more than happy to do, and
to date, no legal action has been employed.
Could you possibly outline the steps necessary to draft, and hopefully
pass, such an Ordinance within your city? Our legal staff stands ready
and willing to assist in any way possible.
Thank you for your consideration of the above and eagerly awaiting
your reply, I remain,

some personal possession from their former residence in Lynwood
after his work shift ended at twelve midnight. That on December 14,
1971, at approximately 3:00 a.m., claimant received a telephone
call from her husband and he advised claimant that he was being

requested that she go to the Lynwood Police Department and bring h
son and the owner of the aforementioned truck with her. When
claimant arrived at the Lynwood Police Department, she was informe
that her husband had been arrested for grand theft. Claimant
endeavored to clarify the situation with the police department
and advised them that the truck had been borrowed from a friend an
that the goods involved were her husband's. Claimant subsequently
paid the impound charges on the aforementioned truck. While
leaving the Lynwood Police Department facility, claimant commented
to the people with her about the situation. Suddenly, without

TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: CITY MANAGER
DEMOLITION OF LONG BEACH BOULEVARD PROPERTIES
On March 14, the Division of Highways opened bids for the demolition and clear-
ance of the first three properties on the west side of Long Beach Boulevard. The
first properties to be cleared are 11421, 11423, and 11425 Long Beach Boulevard.
In accordance with State contract procedures, it normally takes about three weeks
from bid opening until a contractor begins actual work. We expect the activities
to start on these parcels during the week of April 3 -7. Additional bid openings
for demolition are scheduled for March 21, 1972. Those properties to be demolish-
ed include 11433, 11439, 11447, 114472, 11449, and 11451 Long Beach Boulevard.
Activities on these parcels should begin during the week of April 10 -14. The
vacant bank building at the southwest of Mulford Avenue and Long Beach Boule-
vard will be scheduled after the adjacent building to the south is vacated. The
particular type of concrete construction of this building is such that it would be
difficult to demolish or remove without endangering the adjacent building.
WATER LINE PROJECT -- MONTGOMERY WARD AREA
The Water Division of the Public Works Department has begun the installation of
the water lines along State Street south of Imperial. Work crews will remain on
this job continuously until completion. Council will be advised of the percentage
of the job completed and the lineal feet of installation bi- weekly in this bulletin.
WATER MAIN SYSTEM FLUSHING PROGRAM
The Water'Division of the Public Works Department has recently completed the
flushing of the entire water main system in this City. This operation was per-
formed during the evening hours and during the weekends. All mains were
flushed of residues within the system. In addition, two mainline valves Land one
fire hydrant valve were found inadvertently closed and was corrected.
SEAL COAT SURFACING PROJECT
This project will be completed by March 22. All phases of the work have been com-
pleted in a satisfactory manner and Council's acceptance of the work is expected at

UNIFORM TRAFFIC CONTROL STUDY FOR ALAMEDA STREET
The City has recently received a traffic study report for Alameda Street prepared
by the Los Angeles County Road Department. This report outlines the traffic
improvements for each jurisdiction within the M mile limits of this arterial.
Therefore, the City now has uniform traffic control proposals for three major
arterials, the Imperial Highway, Atlantic Avenue, and Alameda Street.
TRUCK ROUTE CONTROLS
Attached is a map indicating the truck routes throughout the City. The Public
Works Department has ordered 150 - 6000 pound weight limit signs to be placed
along all truck routes and entrances to the City. Signs will be installed within
the next 60 days.
ORDINANCE REGULATING SEWER CONSTRUCTION, USE AND INDUSTRIAL WASTES
The City has recently received a copy of an ordinance from the Sanitation District
of Los Angeles County regulating sewer construction, sewer use, and industrial
waste water discharges. This ordinance will become effective April 1, 1972. The
City of Lynwood belongs to District No. 1, and Lynwood is represented by Director
Henry J. Liewer and Alternate Director, John Byork. This ordinance will pro-
vide for joint District -City issuance of permits to control industrial wastes and
new sewer construction.
WATER SYSTEM - VICINITY OF 108TH AND ALAMEDA STREET
At the City Council Meeting of March 7, 1972, Council requested a Staff report on
the Water System in the vicinity of 108th and Alameda Streets. Attached for Council's
review is a schematic drawing of the water lines in the vicinity of Century Boulevard,
Santa Fe Avenue, Alameda Street, and 108th to Norton Avenue.
As a result of increased industrial activity, in 1968, it was decided to install water
lines in this vicinity along Alameda Street, Century Boulevard and Santa Fe Avenue.
The attached drawing indicates a 12 -inch water line installed in 1968 along Little
Alameda to Century Boulevard, from Century Boulevard northerly on Santa Fe
Avenue. At the same time, new fire hydrants were installed off of this line as
can be seen at 108th, 109th, 110th, and 111th to provide greater capacity. Prior to
this, the existing system consisted of principally 6 -inch lines on these streets and
a 6 -inch line along the alley immediately east of Little Alameda Street. The draw-
ing shows this line remains in service and is interconnected with the new 12 -inch line.
Circulation was therefore provided at the time of this new installation.
In regards to the bacteriological quality of the water in the system, it is a State and
County Health Department requirement that our Water Division sample at least 50
points throughout the system and perform a bacteriological analysis by an indepen-
dent laboratory to determine any contamination or pollution in our water system.
As an example, in 1971, 700 samples were collected throughout the water system,
of these only three were found to be positive, meaning possible pollution was evi-
dent. Under these conditions, the Water Division will immediately flush those specific
areas in order to prevent contamination throughout any portion of the City. The
results of the samples tested by the laboratory is recorded with both the County
and the State for their permanent records.

NUISANCE ABATEMENT - 10781 COLYER STREET
The City Council held a nuisance abatement hearing on subject property on 2/15/72
and the owner was given until 3/15/72 to comply with clean -up of general nuisal ce
on this property, Due to total lack of compliance by the property owner, City
crews entered the premises on 3/17/72 and proceeded to repair broken windows,
rescreen windows, remove trash and debris from the yard and mow the lawns in
order to leave the premises in a comparable state of repair as those surrounding
residential properties. Response from the neighbors in the area has been extremely
favorable due to the Council's action,
MOBILEASE AGREEMENT
Pursuant to Council direction, staff has reviewed the files of the Mobilease
Corporation lease agreement. The lease was signed into effect as of April 1,
1966 and provided for a five -year term with option to purchase at the end of
the lease. The property was appraised at a value of $90, 000 in 1966 and rental
rates were established on the following scale:
YEAR RENTAL RATE
1966
$4,968
1967
5,076
1968
5,184
1969
5,292
1970'
5,420
Total five -year lease $25, 920
The lease calls for increased rental payments only through April, 1971, and
therefore Mobilease has been paying on a month -by -month basis at the 1970
rental rate, In March, 1971 the City had the property reappraised and it was
found that the value of the property increased to $112, 500, The property value
over a five -year period, therefore, increased ?5 %, whereas, the rental rate over
the same five year period increased only 8. 7 %. Staff has scheduled meetings with
representatives of Mobilease in order to determine their willingness to either
continue leasing the property under terms of a new lease agreement or to proceed
with outright purchase dependent upon Council direction,

LYNWOOD CRIME RATE
March 21, 1972
Pursuant to Council direction at the regular City Council
meeting, of 7 March 1972, the follo:aing information is sub-
mitted relative to existing crime rates as opposed to the
same period of time in 1971 and 1970.
The yardstick most commonly used to determine increase or
decreases in crime is the seven major categories as listed
below which are referred to as Part I crimes:
1 - Homicide
2 - Rape
3 - Robbery
4 - Aggravated Assault
5 -.Burglary
6 2 -Grand Theft
7 - Auto Theft
The consistency of victims reporting the above crimes is
deemed sufficient to establish a reliable yardstick. The
overall crime rate has increased 4.68% above 1971 and
17.09 above 19'70, while the Part I Crimes have increased
"only" 4.25% over 1971 and 9.100 over 1970.
The above figures would have a tendency to under estimate
the impact of serious crime on the community. Because of
improved safety devices such as locked steering columns
and auto alarm devices, etc.; and additional patrol and
lighting of parking lots, a sharp drop of 24.3% in auto
thefts has been recorded.
Robbery, Burglary and Aggravated Assaults have increased
substantially, however, and because of the very nature of
the of'ense, is of more concern not only to the victim but
also to the police department.
Deportment Memo
Robbery has increased 50o over 1971 figures and 92.8% over
19'(0 figures. Arrests for robbery are up 43% over 1971
totals and 94% of 1970 totals.
LYNWOOD CRIME RATE -2- March 21, 1972
Burglary reflects an increase of 19.4% over 1971 rates and
22.9% over 1970 figures. Unfortunately, arrest figures show
a decline of 25.5,E over 1971 and 15.5% over 1970 totals.
Aggravated assaults have increased 33.3% over 1971 totals
£ilid 53.80 over 1970 totals. Arrests in this category h,ve
also increased 100% above 1971 totals and 55.5% above 1.970
figures.
The complete table of actual offenses appears below for the
first quarter of 1972, 1971 and 1970.
There can be no question the combination of legal complexities,
injuries and resignations are having an impact on our ability
to cope with the overall criminal element.
35 -40% of calls for service involve drunkeness, family fights
or neighborhood disturbances. This type *of call is particu-
larly time consuming and takes away valuable time from our
preventive patrols.
We will shortly have six men enter the police academy for a
period of ten weeks, returning about mid -June and three men
are off I.O.D. with extensive injuries•. This depletes our
field strength by seven personnel from our authorized strength
of 51 or nine counting E.E.A. personnel out of 53 (13 -17%).

This shortage of personnel will necessarily affect overtime
work for the rema].ning officers to assure certain minimum
numbers of units to provide a reasonable degree of safety
for the personnel.
Should the members of the City Council have any questions
concerning this report I would be,happy to discuss and
clarify areas of concern.
