Mr. E. White, 12434 Cookacre, stated that Mr. Bibbs was a fair
and honest person and should be allowed to operate a pool room.

a very fine and respectable business.
Mr. R. Aguilo, 2113 Ladena, Torrance, commented on violations
by Mr. Bibbs and use of the driveway where children play. He
asked Council to deny the license and referred to a petititon
submitted in opposition.
Ms. I. Honorof, 2901 Los Flores, agreed with Mr. Aguilo, and
application should be denied.
Mr. T. Bibbs, 12010 Long Beach Boulevard, stated that the
problems are with the motel and their beer bottles. He stated
he applied for beer license as his business was down.
Mr. K. Khan, 3516 Kyle Drive, Cerritos, owns apartments next

Ms. L. Obio, 3125 Via San Delaro, Montebello, stated that

Mr. Bibb's records be checked, and felt the problems arose
mainly from the motel.
Mr. R. Aguillo stated he has owned his building six years, _
and there were no problems until the pool - hall came in.
Mr. E. White stated the problems are coming from the
prostitutes and drug activities at the motel, and not the - --
pool room.

closed. After council discussion, it was moved by Council-
man Thompson, seconded by Councilman Morris, to instruct
staff to prepare a resolution to deny the request for a
Conditional Use Permit to allow the serving of beer and wine.
Mr. W. Seeber of the Sheriff's Department told Councilman
Henning that there had not been any complaints on the pool

REGULAR MEETING NOVEMBER 19, 1985
The City Council of the City of Lynwood met in a regular
session in the City Hall, 11330 Bullis Road, on the above
date at 7:30 p.m.
Mayor Byork in the chair.
Councilmen Henning, Morris, Rowe, Thompson and Byork answered -�
the roll call.
Also present were City Manager Gomez and City Attorney Yeager.
..J
The Mayor stated that due to the number of people in attendance
that Item No. 11, public hearing on the Annexation No. 3, would
be heard first. The public hearing was opened and the Mayor
inquired if anyone present wished to speak in favor of or in
opposition to the resolution.
The City Manager stated that there were no plans for a prison
being built on the property. Councilman Henning wanted to
know who issued the flyer which was misleading information.
Mr. W. Fraser, 2419 E. 115th St., stated he was opposed to
the annexation.
Ms. S. Ford, Administrative Assistant to Assemblywoman Maxine
waters, read an open letter to the City of Lynwood stating
Ms. Waters was opposed to the annexation based on the allega-
tion that the public was not adequately informed about the
prison. Ms. Ford presented a petition wherein 51% of the
registered voters had signed in opposition to the annexation.
The City Clerk noted that verification must be made in order
to determine that those who signed are registered voters.
Ms. A. Harris resident of the Watts area, spoke in opposition
to the annexation.
Rev. J. White, 904 W. 130th, he was also opposed and had a
petition.
Mr. J. Davis owns property in the area proposed for annexation.
He questioned what Ms. Waters or anyone has done for the people
in the area. The City Attorney stated that imminent domain
would provide relocation benefits to the property owners.
The City Manager told Mr. Davis that the City has programs
of benefit to the citizens, and that all services provided by
the county would still be provided by the City.
Rev. W. Burnett, pastor at 108th and Mona residing at 2406 E.
108th Street, questioned costs of trash pickup as the county
includes payment on the property tax bill, but the City has
a separate charge.
Mr. C. Hardy, 2459 E. Santa Ana, requested the chance to vote
on the annexation.
Ms. C. Green, 3958 Louise, spoke in opposition and thought
everyone already knew a jail was being planned for the property.
The City Manager stated Lynwood already has a jail.
Mr. M. Clark, 2416 112th Place, does not want the property to
be annexed because he feels the four homes her mother owns in
the area will be jeopardized.
Ms. T. Mcnear, 2441 E. 114th Street, said she owned a home in
the area since 1948, and stated she still had not heard why
the City wanted to annex the property. Councilman Henning tried
to clarify that the purpose of the-annexation was because there
would be a freeway offramp on Alameda, and the area would be
good for a business park. He stated there was no intention to
build a prison, and if the county wanted to build one, they
could do it without annexing.

If the area is annexed, the citizens would be able to vote
on what would be developed. The City Manager stated the park
would be like the ERC business park, south of Imperial and
Alameda where the Ella Fitzgerald Child Care Center is located;
this is not a City park.
Mr. E. Lopez, 2415' 113th Street, does not want the City to
take over the property he bought two years ago.
Mr. F. Burger, owner of Berwin Metals, 108th and Alameda,
stated the County had been trying to have him improve his
property, and the City advised him to wait until after the
annexation, and the City would handle it. He questioned if
the City would let him continue his salvage yard, but Council-
man Henning stated he was not in favor of unsightly businesses.
Mr. D. Kennedy, 2431 E. 113th Street, did not understand why
the City wanted the annexation.
Ms. E. lb rter, 2512 Santa Ana, stated her purchase in the area
was all she could afford, and believed if the property was
annexed, her taxes would go up. The City Manager explained
that after Proposition 13, taxes cannot be raised over 1% no
matter where property is located.
Ms. D. Doner, 2446 E. 115th, has lived in the area for 40 years.
Most of the people living there cannot afford to live anywhere
else.
Councilman Thompson could not understand where people were
getting the idea that they would be displaced. He suggested
the meeting be continued to check the petition to see of 50%
of those who signed are in fact registered voters. If this
is true and do not want to go through with the annexation,
than that would be the decision.
It was moved by Councilman Thompson, seconded by Councilman
Henning, to continue the hearing to November 25, 1985 at
5:00 p.m. to allow time to check the petition.
Mr. E. Hawthorne, 2416 110th, wondered if there was a repre-
sentative from the County at the meeting. He was informed
that would serve no purpose.
Ms. L. Monroe, 1546 W. 126th, stated she wanted people to
stop parking old cars in from on their properties.

SCHEDULED MATTERS
It was moved by Mayor Byork, seconded by Councilman Morris,
to withhold Item No. 7, Public Hearing on Annexation No. 3 -A,
take no testimony and cancel the public hearing.
Councilman Henning stated there seemed to be quite a bit of
misinformation regarding the annexation. He couldn't under-
stand why anyone would start false information regarding a
prison being built there. Originally, Council did want
the area for a justice center, but plan was pending because
of funding. He stated he had convinced Council to go ahead
with the annexation because it was the gateway to Lynwood
and the area had been neglected for the past 44 year. It
would be a valuable asset to redevelop Alameda Street and
Imperial Highway by having the unincorporated area annexed
to City thereby County residents would be eligible for federal
funding to rehabilitate their homes through City programs.
It was moved by Councilman Henning, seconded by Councilman
Thompson, that Council cancel the annexation.
