8. UNFINISHED BUSINESS — None
9. NEW BUSINESS
A. REQUESTS FROM FIVE BUSINESSES TO HAVE LIMITED DURATION
STREET PARKING ON LAS TUNAS DRIVE
Community Development Manager Lambert stated the City Council was
requested to consider the requests from five businesses on a two -block
stretch of Las Tunas Drive to install green curb, which would result in
limited duration street parking.
Between July 2009 and January 2010, four different food service uses
were approved by the City through the Conditional Use Permit process.
The four establishments are located on the south side of Las Tunas Drive
within a two -block area at 9578, 9608, 9618, and 9664 Las Tunas Drive.
Five businesses located at 9600, 9624, 9628, 9668, and 9674 Las Tunas
Drive requested limited duration (green curb) parking adjacent to their
businesses. The business owners felt that the green curb parking is
essential to their survival with the increased traffic and parking demand
from the nearby restaurants. Most of the businesses requesting the green
curb have customers that come in for a short duration (i.e. liquor store, pet
store, bike shop, uniform shop).
Currently, there are no guidelines, policies, or procedures for green curb
requests in the City's commercial corridors. Staff is seeking direction from
the City Council to process such green curb requests in a consistent
manner.
Temple City adopted the Los Angeles County Code by reference for
purposes of traffic control. Section 15020.010 states that the board (i.e.
City Council) shall determine and designate the character and location of
all warning, regulatory, and directional signage, other than those signs
established by the California Vehicle Code. Therefore, any decision
regarding the placement of green curb shall be subject to the review and
approval of the City Council.
Although the liquor store and bike shop are immediately adjacent to one
another, the other three businesses are not. Staff felt that the placement
of green curb parking in front of the subject businesses will result in a
patchwork of green curb on this two block stretch of Las Tunas Drive, with
patches of regular curb in between green curb.
With the reinstatement of the Public Safety Commission in January 2010,
issues relating to public safety such as public parking and street parking
City Council Minutes
December 7, 2010
Page 7
can be reviewed in greater detail by the Commission for recommendation
to Council. Staff recommends that the City Council take one of the
following three actions:
Option One: Refer this matter to the Planning Commission for them to
develop guidelines for the 15 minute green curb street parking in the
commercial corridors;
Option Two: Refer this matter to the newly created Public Safety
Commission for them to develop guidelines for the 15 minute green curb
street parking in the commercial corridors; and/or
Option Three: Direct staff to install the 15 minute green curb parking as
requested by five businesses on Las Tunas Drive.
Community Development Manager Lambert provided a visual
representation of the businesses requesting green curb via a power point
presentation, and responded to questions from Council.
Tony Sarkis, liquor store owner at 9624 Las Tunas Drive, said his
customers are in and out in a few minutes, but the parking in front of his
store is taken and there is no place for customer parking in the whole
block.
Conrad Urquiddi, pet shop owner at 9674 Las Tunas Drive, said he
appeared before the Planning Commission to express his concerns about
the restaurant at 9664 and asked that the Conditional Use Permit be
denied. He emphasized the effect on his business as there is no parking
behind it and most of his customers use the front door access on Las
Tunas Drive as public parking is physically inconvenient for them.
Currently there is 2 -hour parking on Las Tunas Drive. He felt that retail
businesses were not allowed the same consideration as restaurants.
Restaurant parking needs are far greater than retail and because
businesses need immediate relief, he urged Council to direct staff to install
green curb parking as requested.
Councilmember Blum stated bringing in new businesses helps with the
revitalization but the City has been experiencing problems for a long time
with inadequate parking. The new businesses coming in went through the
Conditional Use Permit (CUP) process as required. Council needs to
address the larger parking problem and spend more time addressing that.
The City does not want to drive current businesses out when bringing new
businesses into town. Council needs to take action for these businesses
to give them relief by green curbing in front of their businesses, but also to
address long term parking issues.
City Council Minutes
December 7, 2010

Mayor Pro Tem Chavez stated issues such as this is why the Public
Safety Commission was reinstated. It may delay the process but would be
better to make an informed decision rather than a piecemeal program and
then have to take it out. It seems to be a walk -able distance to the public
parking lots and use of the school district lot could solve some of that
problem as well. To install green curbing here and there would just be a
band -aid effect and this requires careful thought. He recommended
referring this to the Public Safety Commission to develop guidelines for
the entire parking district.
Councilmember Sternquist stated the in -lieu parking fees have been
suspended so there is no mitigation in place for these restaurants coming
into town.
Community Development Manager Lambert noted that all restaurants are
conditioned to pay the in -lieu parking fee in the future. This area is in the
City Center District of the Downtown Specific Plan, which is the only
district where additional parking is not required, as this 3-4 block stretch is
pegged for intense use.
Councilmember Sternquist stated the City needs to do whatever it can to
stop this process from getting bigger. These businesses need immediate
relief. It is no fault of their own that these new businesses have come in,
so she had no problem with the 15 minute parking, even on a temporary
basis for 3-6 months until the Public Safety Commission reviewed the
issue or to see how well it works.
Councilmember Yu believed the parking issue needs to be studied
thoroughly and did not think the green curbing should be patchwork.
While it may be beneficial to some businesses, it would be detrimental to
other businesses. The demand for parking for restaurants is very different
from other businesses, so he would like to see a more comprehensive
plan. This would be a good issue to refer to the newly formed Public
Safety Commission with a recommendation from staff. He did not believe
this is a real parking issue as there are parking lots fairly close. They just
may not be as convenient. He recommended referring this to the Public
Safety Commission.
Mayor Vizcarra stated the City has been conscious of this problem for a
long time. There are a number of cars parked along the street, usually
employees or business owners. In talking to these businesses, it seems
their customers can rarely park in front of their businesses. This is an
ongoing problem, but at times like this becomes more evident, and at this
time, the impact is one of financial hardship for these business owners.
He felt they need relief and believed Council should move on this
immediately, and refer it to the Public Safety Commission.

City Manager Pulido suggested a joint meeting of the Planning
Commission and Public Safety Commission to bring a recommendation on
this issue at a later date.
Mayor Vizcarra said he wished to move on this now and give it to the
Commission. At a later date, he would like to see what impact it has on
the businesses.
Councilmember Yu noted that all businesses in this area may be impacted
by green curbing, but all were not notified of this meeting to be here and
present their side.
Council discussed this issue further.
Councilmember Blum moved to direct staff to come back in 30 days with a
proposed ordinance, time limit recommendations and strategy for
standards for green curb requests in a 2 -block area of Las Tunas Drive,
with notices sent to the affected property owners and tenants, and further
directed referral to the Planning Commission and Public Safety
Commission for further review and recommendation, seconded by Mayor
Pro Tem Chavez and unanimously carried by the following roll call vote:

B. FIRST READING OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 10-938 AMENDING
SECTIONS 3320, 3322, 3323, 3325 AND 3329 OF THE TEMPLE CITY
MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO OVERNIGHT PARKING ON CITY
STREETS
Public Safety Officer Ariizumi reviewed his staff report, stating on October
19, 2010, the City Council reviewed the overnight parking ordinance and
directed staff to prepare an ordinance amendment to implement the
following changes:
• The restricted hours for overnight parking will now be from 2 a.m. to
5 a.m.;
• Residents with a take home company vehicle may apply for an
annual overnight parking permit if the applicant provides a copy of
the registration for the work vehicle and a letter from their
supervisor indicating that the vehicle is issued to the applicant and
the applicant is authorized to take the vehicle home at night;
City Council Minutes
December 7, 2010
Page 10
• An annual overnight parking permit may now be placed in two (2)
locations on the vehicle: 1) on the lower left hand corner of the rear
window; or 2) on the left hand side of the rear bumper;
• Residents may now apply for up to two (2) temporary conditional
permits per year when a vehicle with a valid annual overnight
parking permit is disabled and is in the shop for repair. The
resident must provide documentation from the repair shop. The
issuing officer may issue the temporary conditional permit at no
charge for a duration up to thirty (30) days; and
• The Public Safety Commission will hear residents appeal for a
hardship review if the resident does not met the criteria for an
annual overnight parking permit or is requesting an exemption from
the criteria.
Sandra Hakim, Temple City resident, said she has three cars and only
parking space for one car, so it is a financial hardship to get parking
permits for two cars.
Mayor Pro Tem Chavez stated that part of the ordinance amendment
addresses hardship requests that may be appealed to the Public Safety
Commission.
Christopher Kline, Temple City resident, spoke of his concerns regarding
permitting for recreational vehicles and trailers which he considered a
hardship.
Public Safety Officer Ariizumi stated he would look into Mr. Kline's
concerns, as they were not addressed in this ordinance amendment.
At the request of Council, City Clerk Flandrick read the title of proposed
Ordinance No. 10-938.
Councilmember Blum moved to waive further reading and introduce on
first reading proposed Ordinance No. 10-938, an ORDINANCE OF THE
CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TEMPLE CITY, CALIFORNIA,
REVISING THE OVERNIGHT PARKING PERMIT PROCESS AND FEE

together who could report to the Planning Commission and/or Parks

and Recreation Commission. He requested this issue be placed on
the next meeting agenda for Council to decide how to proceed.
In response to Council, Councilmember Blum said he talked to
several people with skills in this area that could brainstorm and
provide recommendations. He felt at least one member should be
from the school district.

as a beautification and enhancement component, could involve
transitional at

agenda item next meeting, to disband some of the Ad Hoc
Committees that are no longer necessary.
E. MAYOR VIZCARRA
1) Review of Effectiveness of City Commission Memberships
Mayor Vizcarra said the City has a number of commissions over
which the Council really doesn't have any oversight or know what is
happening with them on a regular basis. Also, there is now a
vacancy on the Parks and Recreation Commission and Council
needs to address how to fill that vacancy. He suggested reviewing
the list of those who applied for that Commission last year and make
a selection from that list.
City Attorney Vail stated the Maddy Act requires that the City post
notification of the vacancy and the term of office. The process of
appointment is completely up to Council. The full Council does have
to vote on the selection, but is not just limited to those who previously
filed applications. Council can solicit people from the community.
Council discussed the process and changes they wished to be made
in the next appointment/reappointment process next year.
Mayor Vizcarra appointed Councilmember Sternquist and Mayor Pro
Tem Chavez to review and recommend a selection process for the
Parks and Recreation vacancy.
Mayor Vizcarra also directed staff to agendize at a later date the

18. ADDITIONAL PUBLIC COMMENTS ON ITEMS NOT LISTED ON THE
AGENDA
Mary Burke, Temple City resident, thanked Council for all their hard work this
year. She previously has spoken about improvements to the Council Chambers
and hoped that the Council would not put these off any longer. She also asked
to keep residents more informed of what is happening on the corner of
Rosemead and Las Tunas and said she would appreciate more detail.
Mary Kokayko, Temple City resident, spoke of her concerns regarding the green
curb item, saying the City should not penalize current businesses or drive away
businesses because of more and more restaurants coming into the City. These
businesses are losing money and she suggested putting a moratorium on any
more restaurants until the parking situation has been figured out.
Jerry Jambazian, Temple City businessman, commented on last night's mixer,
stating it was a good fun evening, but maybe could have included a chronicle of
this last year of celebration of the City's 50th Anniversary.

events will be presented before year's end.
