Forrest A. Adams appealing the decision of the Planning Commission
on the application of James Sandlin for a use permit to operate a
barber shop at 1279 Livermore Blvd.

be in the category of the uses required to be abated by January 1,
1972, as proposed in the proposed zoning ordinance. I
Mr. Joseph Schenone, attorpey, spoke on behalf or the
applicant explaining that this buildmngtas been used for commercial
purposes since it was built. It was built as a real estate office
and was later used as a cleaning shop buildingj also this area is
not strictly residential, there is a motel, trailer court, service
station, corporation ~ard, wrecking yard and Joesville commercial
buildings along this street. The proposed barber shop would be a
compatible use in this area. The applicant also proposes a two
bedroom home to be built on the property.
The Council then discussed the matter. Mr. C. Carr, owner
of the property, also spoke regarding this application and stated
he had purchased this property as buainess property.

I
n
Director of Public Works D. M. Bissell presented a map pre-
.
pared-by Sunset Development Co. showing the proposed development
.
pattern for the portion of the 500 acre Wagoner ranch lying
adjacent to Pleasanton-Livermore Road and the proposed sewer
alignment ~or the sanitary sewer trunk line to serve Tracts 1942
and 1963. He 'also explained the problem inv61ved regarding the
sanitary sewer line for these two tracts; this sewer line is to
connect to the south trunk sewer at the Pleasanton-Livermore Road.
..
The question to be determined is the area which should be served,
and the responsibility o~ the subdivider in the installation of
said line.
o
Mr. Bissell has recommended that the subdivider should be
responsible for the installation of a line o~ su~ficient size and
.
depth to serve at least the 500 acres under option by the sub-

divider which would necessitat~ a larger size sewer line to be
installed at a greater depth than proposed by the subdivider,
and which would sewer the 57 acres at the southwest corner of
r-I the Wagoner property. The City would be responsible for the
additional size necessary to serve additional areas to the
south and east.
The Council then discussed the matter as to a policy equitable
to everyone, the line should be in the best location to serve the
greatest area. There are two policies by which the excess size
.
can be financed, by contribution of City monies to the excess size
of the trunk line and by reimbursement to the developer from a
-
i
.
benefit district. It was suggested that these two policies be
computed in terms of cost and design, the area which might be served,
and the cost to the city contributed because of the difference in
size of the line. The matter was postponed to the meeting of
February 2, 1959.

Report of Planning Commission
Use Permit & Variance Applications - Leo W. Blow
A report dated January 28, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission regarding the use permit application submitted
by Leo Blow for a retail building material business located at
l210 Railroad Avenue and an application for variance from the fence
regulations.
This matter was discussed in a joint study session with the
Planning Commission on January 26th. The Planning Commission
contended that a waiver of the fence regulations may only be
granted by means of a variance. Mr-. Parness stated that the im-
provement standards contained within the proposed zoning ordinance
are not legally effective at this t~e and may only be imposed at
the discretion of the Planning Commission and City Council if said'
bodies feel they are reasonable standards. It is doubtful that tbe
requirement for fencing around the subject property as stated in
the proposed zoning ordinance need b~ impDsed, consequently the
need for variance from this requirement is unnecessary.
Mr-. Parness stated that since the proposed zoning ordinance
is not in effect, the Planning Commission plans to adopt the pro-
posed zoning ordinance in resolution form so they may be guided by
it by reference.
On motion of Councilman Shirley, seconded by Councilman
i
I
Medeiros and the unanimous vote of the CounCil, the use permit was
granted subject to the recommendations of the Planning Commission
with the exception that the fence be omitted on the east and south
property lines.

Deny Request for Dog Pound Services
Mr. Parriess reported that in October, 1957 a request was
received from the City of Pleasanton asking that our city give
consideration to extending our dog pound services to their community
on a cost plus basis. While investigating this matter, Pleasanton
asked that their request be postponed for internal reasons.
A subsequent request was received in December, 1958 again
asking that animal control services be provided for 2 man days per
month.
This matter was thoroughly investigated by the Police Chief
and Poundmaster who have recommended a denial of the request solely
-
,
based upon the present and expanding work load of this department
in service to our City.
On motion of Councilman Medeiros, seconded by Councilman
M~Claskey, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the request of
the City of Pleasanton for dog pound services was denied.

Proposed Agreement with ,Sunset Development Co.
Re Sanitary Sewer System
At a study session of the City Council on February 9, 1959
informal approval was extended by the City Council to the proposal
, ,
i
of the Sunset Development Co. for a sanitary sewer system to serve
Tracts No. 1942 and 1993 in addition to the balance of the proposed
Granada Village improvement which consists of a 1x>tal of 442 acres.
This contract requires the subdivider to install a sewer line
of greater capacity than would be required to serve the two sub-
divisions in question, together with additional capacity to serve
I
developable land throughout the same sector of this tract. The
first portion of the excess capacity in this system shall be
financed by the subdivider with reimbursement provided based upon
a benefit district formation from the remaining 442 acres over a
15 year term until the excess costs have been returned to the
1
developer. The additionU capacity required by the City shall be
financed by the City since this line is one of those designed as a
major trunk facility on our master sewer plan. Since the City
contribution to this project will exceed the $200 maximum limit for
public works projects, which will necessitate formal sealed proposals,
it is suggested that the City not contribute any dollar contribution
to this improvement but rather extend an equal amount of credit to
the developer in annexation fees. This will permit construction
bids to be solicited by the developer at an early date which will
prove expedient and economical to both parties. At lease three bids
will be received, which will be subject to review and approval of
the City before award. The City Attorney has concurred in the
legality of this provision.
City Attorney Callaghan reported that the present ordinance
limita the tim~ for recovery under the benefit district to be 10
ye~rs instead of 15.
The contract will be ready for execution at the next meeting
also the City Attorney will prepare an amendment to Ordinance No.
308, setting the time limit for recovery at 15 year~.

FEB 1 6 1959
Mr". Masud Mehran, developer of the tract, requested that the
intentions of the Council be formally expressed so that they may
continue with their work.
On motion of Councilman Patterson, seconded by Councilman
Shirley, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the Council agreed,
after discussion at a study session, that a policy decision re-
garding sanitary sewer installation be as follows:
Mr. Mehran of Sunset Development Co. be required to pay for
complete installation of 8" sanitary sewer lines for approximat~ly
50001 to serve Tracts 1942'and 1963. However, for 2500' the
additional l2l1 size required to serve 442 of the 500 acres in
question would be allocated to a benefit dist:rict consisting of
442 acres and excepting Tracts 1942 and 1963.
The City will pay for a further increase in size consisting

Authorize Issuance of Building Permit to
Armco Drainage & Metal Products Inc.
Mr. Parness reported that a use permit has been granted the
Armco Drainage & Metal Products, Inc. for construction of an
industrial plant in our newly annexed area. A technical defect
involving the issuance of a building permit which ordinarily cannot
be granted until the property is properly zoned has arisen. The
rezoning is now'under way and the hearings have been scheduled by
the Pl~ing Commission. Since ~t is a contractual obligation on
the part of the City to rezone this to industrial usage, it would
impose an undue delay on the applicant to await completion of this
-
i
procedure before issuance of a building permit.
On motion of Counc~lman Medeiros, seconded by Councilman
McClaSkey, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the Building
Department was instructed to issue a building permit to Armco

Report of Planning Commission
Tentative Map of Tract 2022 - Nojet Co.
A communication dated February 26, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission recommending acceptance of the tentative map of
Tract 2022 submitted by Nojet Co. lying north of Pacific and South
Livermore Avenues, south of East Avenue, and east of School st.,
in the City of Livermore, subject to the recommendations of the
Director of Public Works. (A,copy of which is on file in the office
.
of the City Clerk.) .
The Council then discussed this tentative map and were concerned
regarding the lot treatment along East Avenwe. The Planning Commission
granted approval to this design subject to the installation of a 61
high.solid block masonry wall, with the interim distance between
curb face and wall face to be surfaced with asphaltic concrete.
Street trees would be located within this region. .
The Council objected to this wall and felt that the houses
should face East Avenue and it would be most desirable to have a
service road with proper ingress and egress, although this would
probably be unfair to the developer as no other subdivision in
this area has been required to install such a service road. The
Council also objected to the lot sizes in this proposed tract.
On motion of Councilman Shirley, seconded by Councilman
McClaskey, and by the following called vote, the Council rejected
the tentative map and recommended that a conference be held to study
the problem: Ayes--Councilmen McClaskey, Medeiros, Patterson,
Shirley and Mayor Nordahl; Noes--none; Absent--none.
Report of Planning Commission - Deny Request
to Reduce Lot Sizes in Tct. l821-Intra Pacific Bldrs.

Pacific Builders to reduce the size of Lots 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and
10 in Tract 1821 to a width of fifty feet.

Planning Commission, which proposed tract has an average lot size of
5000 sq. ft. and ties in with this plan for reduced lot sizes.
Mr. D. Carlson, of George Nolte, Civil Engineer's Office,
presented a map revising the sizes of the lots to 601 frontage and
explained their building program for the overall ~ea. He stated
I
the developer is very anxious to go ahead with the building of
model homes.
The Council recommended that the developer apply for building
permits on Lots 1 and 2 for their model ,homes and submit a Record
of Survey on the balance of the lots together with the proposed
tract to the rear.
City Attorney Callaghan also suggested that a fire hydrant
be installed and paving completed in Tract 1821 so that the improve-
ments can be accepted.

On motion p~ Councilm~n Shirley, seconded by Councilman

A commu~ication dated March 11, 1959 was received from the

I ~
Mr. D. Carlson of George Nolte Engineers, representing the
developer, was present at t~e meeting and requested that an amend~
ment be made to the requirement for a storm sewer. Mr. Carlson

Patterson, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the tentative map
of Tr~ct 2028 was approved with the recommendations of the Director

Award Contract for Construction of Industrial
Sanitary Sewer - McGuire and Hester
The City Manager reported upon the analysis of the bids
submitted on March 2, 1959 and strongly urged that the Council
consider the acceptance of a proposal based upon maximum design
criteria or a 7,000 gallon per acre per day capacity. Of those
firms bidding, the proposal of Vincent Rodrigues is the lowest for
the City's portion of the contract with McGuire and Heater as the
lowest total proposal.
The two companies who are signators to the contract for the
installation of the line with the City, namely Southern. Pacific
Co. and Standard Realty & Development Co., have proposed to the
City that the. bid of McGuire and Hester be accepted since this
amount represents the lowest dollar amount to the railroad companies.
If this bid is accepted, the two companies have formally agreed to
reimburse the city for the dollar difference between the lowest bid
submitted for the City1s part and the proposal of McGuire and
Hester, which is an amount of $14,228. The City Attorney has
determined that this proposal is legally permissible.
The following resolution was read and introduced by Couneilman

Tentative Map of Tract 2037, Sunset Dev. Co.
A communication dated March 25, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission recommending acceptance of the tentative map
of Tract 2037 submitted by Sunset Development Co. lying south of
Elaine Avenue encompassed by Tract 1963 on the North, East and
West, subject to the recommendations of the Director of Public
Works. (A copy of which is on file in the office of the City Cl~~)
It was explained that this tract involves the same property that
has been sugg~sted as a new elementary school site and presented
for Council review some weeks ago. Since the developer and the
school officials could not come to terms on purchase price, the
developer has elected to submit a proposed tract for the area,
Legally, the City's only recourse is to consider the adoption of
this subdivision.
Mr. Joe Michell, Superintendent of the Livermore School
District was present at the meeting objecting to this tract. Mr.
Michell stated that this particular area was selected for a school
site by the subdivider and was agreed upon by the Planning CommiSSion,
the City Council, the developer and the School Board. He explained
that the school board cannot operate as fast as other concernsj
monies will be available for the purchase of this property in July

Attorney to start condemnation proceedings to take possession of
this area for a school site.

that this is the only clear parcel of land he owns and if the
Council postpones action this ev.ening" he will be at a standstill.

and it will be months before they come in with the final map for
approval. If the School District buys this property, they can
purchase other property; timing is their greatest concern.
After some discussion by the Council, on motion of Councilman
Patterson, seconded by Councilman McClaskey, and the unanimous vote
of the Council, the tentative map of Tract 2037 was approved subject
to the recommendations of. the Director of Public Works and further
subject to the condition that any engineering costs incurred on this

the Council would also require the RG zone.
The County zoning would require at least 2000 sq. ft. of
gross lot area per dwelling unit, which would equal our present RM
zone in the proposed zoning ordinance. However, since this site is
located in a single family residential zone and not suggested for
multiple residential use by the General Plan, the Planning
Commission has recommended that the standards contained within the
newly drafted Garden Apartment District (RG) be used. This would
require 2,800 sq. ft. of gross lot area per unit.
The Council felt they could not make a decision until they
i :
I ;
studied this proposed new RG zone, and on motion of Councilman
Medeiros, seconded by Councilman Shirley, and the unanimous vote
. "
of the Council, the Council will meet with the Planning Commission
next Monday evening to discuss this matter and make a recommendation
to the County Planning Commission.

A report dated September 4~ 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission recommending approval of the tentative map'ot
Tract 2098 subject to the re'coDDendations ot the Planning Staft
and further recommendations of the Commission as outlined in their
letter. Mr. George Riek explained the various recommendations on
this tract to the Council.
Mr. Parnea.'recoJllllended approval of the tentative map subject
to the conditions as recommended by the Planning Commission with
one exception to be noted. A portion of 'the sanitary sewer
facility for this development ia proposed to be located along an
alignment planned for future street purposes tor an adjoining tract.
There is some possibility that this property may be acquired tor
elementary school purposes and in such an event this section ot the
sanitary sewer line would have to be relocated and increased in size.
The Planning Commission has recommended that such possible relocation
be made an obiigation of the subdivider. Mr. Parness questioned tte
legality and equality of such a provision. The only requirement
that can be imposed by the CoDllll1s8ion are those require_nts tor
public works tacilities to adequately service the subject develop-
ment and any others adjacent thereto. It a toreign type ot

tract, on motion ot Councilaan Medeiros, secon4ed by Counei1aan
McClaskey, and the unanimous vote ot the Council, the tentati~e

Report from Engineering Staff' re Storm Drain Facilities
Granada Village
Geor_ge C. Riek, Associate Civil Engineer, reported on the
proposed storm drainage tacilities tor the Granada Village area.
The main channel is proposed to be developed as an open ditch
rather than" with underground pipe structures. The staff has
caretully reviewed the proposal and concedes that it is a reasonable
compromise since this alignment would require the installation or
a pipe size in excess ot 60 inches. This proposed channel would
be adequately protected on both sides by a chain link fence and
n
1
is situated on the westerly extremity ot the residel'ltial develop-
ment, thereby minimizing objectionable appearances. Internal
, .
drainage lines would be constructed in accordance with our drainage
plan_ and deposit into, this channel. The main problem concerned
with tbis open ditch drainage would be a maintenance problem, weeds
and trash.
~
It such storm drain facility is approved, a benefit district
would be formed since the drainage system would serve an area ot
between 200 and 300 acres larger than the Granada Village improvement.
Arter some discussion by the Council, on motion of Council-
man McClaskey, seconded by Councilman Medeiros, and the unapimous
vote of the Council, the proposed ~siln of this drainage system
was approved and the staff was instructed to finalize the

Public Hearing -Proposed Zoning Ordinance
This being the time and place as established for public hear-
ing on the proposed zoning ordinance, the hearing is now open. I
Seven written communications were received on this matter
from the following:
1. Western Oil & Gas Association - regarding restrictions
on service stations.
2. Foster and Kleiser - regarding restrictions on outdoor
advertising signs.
u
3. Earl Odell - regarding zoning at corner of East Avenue
aria 7th Street.
4. Associated Horne Builders - referred from Planning Commis-
sion regarding setback requirement for corner lots.
5. Planning Commission - regarding setback for corner lots.
6. Pacific Gas & Electric Co. - regarding suggested amend-
ments to various sections.
7. Edwin F. Brady - regarding setback in RG zone and require-
ment of more than one building with so many units per
building.
Those present at the meeting and speaking on various sections
of the proposed ordinance were as follows:
J. L. Messenger of Design Associates, representing Sunset
Development Co. and Brad-Rick Homes, protested the setback require-
ments on corner lots, for reasons as stated in the letter from
Il
~ -
Associated Home Builders.
George Unsworth, representing Western Oil & Gas Co. stated
he would like to answer any questions the Council may have regarding
his firm's letter.
OCT 5 1959 9 .,
I ~
! !
Don Tobin of the Livermore Sanitarium stated that under
the proposed zoning, they are classified as low density residential.
On Page 81 under public and quasi-public uses, there i~ no mention
of a hospital or sanitarium. This was apparently an oversight.
It was suggested that the Council may wish to apply a permanent
zoning classification where the Livermore Sanitarium is located.
Ray Adams of Foster and Kleiser spoke regarding the
regulations on outdoor advertising signs. The business of outdar
advertising will be totally prohibited in Livermore. The setback
requirement would make every sign non-conforming. They feel that
outdoor advertising should be a permitted use in the CH, CB, CG
and IM Districts. Mr. Adams stated he would be glad to answer any
questions regarding his letter.
Denise Thibault commented on the Highway Commercial District.
There is no provision for this zone on anyone of the entrances
into the City. She specifically mentioned the north side of First
Street at Scott, this is zoned residential and yet across the street
is the P. G. & E. and Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Co. yards and
railroad tracks. Also other property along the street is multi-
purpose. I
~s. Thibault objected to the 2500 aq. ft. per trailer
requirement for trailer parks and also the proposed zoning (RM) of
the triangular ptece of property at No. P and Chestnut Street.
This property was zoned Industrial Intermediate and was sold as
such.
Lurl Ostrander referred to Page 26 regarding non-conforming
uses with a valuation of $500 or less, - "All uses non-conforming
at the time of adoption of this ordinance by reason of non-compliance
with performance standards stipulated in the ordinance shall adopt
necessary measures to conform therewith within three years of the
adoption of this Ordinance. If Mr. Ostrander stated that_ performance
standards are not provided for in the ordinance and it was agreed
that this phrase should be re-drafted to read - "conditions
. stipulated in this ordinance etc."
to OCT 5 > 1959
Mr. Ostrander also commented on the general restrictiveness
c of the ordinance and asked - does this become a City of laws or a
City of men. He has heard that the Council intends to interpret
this. law liberally but what will happen when other men are interpret-
ing the ordinance.
Mayor Nordahl stated that any actions taken under this
ordinance will depend upon the firmness or lack of firmness by this
particular group. In a few years a different Council may interpret
the ordinance d1fferently than this Council. The ordinance can be
changed by the vote of the Counci~ any time they wish to change it.
Earl Odell questioned the zoning for the northwest corner of
3rd and South N Streets which has been rezoned to C-l and he was
informed that since this was a recent rezoning, it did not appear
on the map but this will be corrected.
Don Miller stated he believes this ordinance will become a
political issue; how strict this ordinance will be enforced will be
of major concern at election time.
Joan Fetersen questioned the law regarding the number of
pets for each dwelling unit. She does not like the.idea of telling
people how many pets they are allowed to have, and couldn't-this
be regulated by a disturbance of the peace or nuisance law.
Mayor Nordahl stated that the provisions of this ordinance
is for the protection of thecmost number of people. It is intended
to prevent persons from going into the business of raising pets in
their home and sometimes a person hesitates to file a complaint
against his ,neighboDS.
Denise Thibault asked the question whether a garden apartmert;
is allowed in an RN District. She was informed that any multiple
residential use whether called garden apartment or by some other
name would be allowed in a multiple district if~ met the minimum
requirements.
As there was no further participation from the audience, on
motion of Councilman Patterson, seconded by Councilman Medeiros,
and the unanimous vote of the Council, the public hearing was closed.

.Determine Airport Site L...;cation
Authorize Preparation of Application for Federal Funds
At this time the Council discussed at length the two sites
under consideration for our City's municipal airport relocation as
'fully outlined in the report submitted by Leigh Fisher & Associates.
The City Manager explained that there are two questions of primary
concern to which attention was devoted.
, ,
These are as follows:
l. What would be the difference in the total capital in-
vestment between Site 1 and Site 3, taking into account
land acquisition and the costs of physical improvements?
...
2. Which site would offer the maximum utility as a municipal
airport facility?
As to cost differential, it has been indicated through recent
surveys which calculated land values and engineering analysis of
improvement costs, that Site 1 can be developed for a total price sub-
stantially below Site 3. Essentially, this is due to the difference
in land values between the two locations. However the differences
in improvement costs are considered to be secondary to the major
issue which concerns the serviceability of the location to airport
needs....
In a recent discussion on the matter with t~e District
Engineer of F.A.A. he concludes that Site 1 should not be given
22
OCT 1 9 1959
~
r/]
.-,
.........J
'='
~
-further consideration for use as an airport facility since the
physical limitations-involved in the sector preclude it being
developed to its ultimate n~ed. This statement was reiterated and
fennally filed with the City by letter.
Mr. Parness recommended that the City Council adopt a motion
officially determining a proposed municipal airport site so that
an application ~or matching Federal funds can be submitted.
Various points discussed by the Council were:
1. A study presented by the Airport Advisory Committee showing
what could be installed within existing financial means which would
be completely adequate safety-wise with the ability to expand.
2. The location of the proposed site as related to our
industrial zene area.
3. The possible angling of the landing pattern so that the
airplanes will not be flying over the city as they land.
Mr. Lowell Miller spoke on behalf of George Jamison, property
owner. The relocation of Site 3 would take 30 acres of the Jamison
I
--,
: I

Communications
A communication dated October 7, 1959 was received from the
State Division of Highways regarding additional study in connection
with the rerouting of State Route 108 in the vicinity of Livermore.
Matters Initiated by Councilmen
Councilman Shirley suggested that the Council appoint five
airport commissioners to administer the airport facility. The staff
was to draw up a resolution creating an airport commission.
Councilman Patterson commented ~n the drainage problem of
the Fletcher property (Tentative Tract 1971), and wondered if the
City couldn't purchase the Sunken Gardens from the Recreation
District and lease it back to them for a nominal fee so that a portion
I
---.I
of the area can be used for drainage. This seems to be the only possible
solution to prOVide drainage for this property. This matter will be
discussed at a study session.
Councilman McClaskey asked the status of the Veterans Memorial
Building. Mr. Parness reported~hat the most recent information was
that the City's request was being processed, but he will inquire
again.
Discussion on Blockbusters Dance
II
U
Mr. Allen Hill and Mr. James Lembesis were present at the

having a permit.
OCT 1 \1 1959 25
Mr. Parness reported that this matter had been thoroughly
discussed with Mr. Lembesis and Lieutenanct Foley and any mis-
understanding had been cleared up. On this particular night the
Chief was out of town and had given orders that this dance was not
to be held under any circumstances if a permit had not been obtained.
The Lieutenant was merely following the orders of his superior.
Ci ty Participation Re parl{ & Recreation
Capital Improvement Financing
Mr. Parness read a copy of his letter to the Recreation
District regarding the City's participation in park and recreation
capital improvements and stated they wish to have a more definite

no means by which the city may participate in a capital development
program.

Resume of Planning Commission
Action of Use Permits
-\
I !
A report was received from the Plannipg Commission containing
a resume of the Planning Commission's action on use pe~mits at their
meeting of October 27, 1959. No further action was taken by the
Council.
Discussion on Precise Airport Location
At the City Council meeting of October 19, 1959 the Council
specified that the proposed location of our city1s airport site shall
be situated westerly of the City in the proximity as described in
the appraiser's report. Within the past two weeks our staff has
devoted considerable time in analyzing all of the alternatives in
this sector. Existing development, various land improvements,
physical obstructions and property severances were studied. Sub- !l
sequently, representatives of our Airport Advisory Committee reviewed l_J
all alternates and the most favorable plot plans in addition to
visiting the proposed site locations.
Plot plans delineating all of the alternates as studied were
presented, a copy of which is on file in the City Clerk'S office.
NOV 2 1959 27
Each plan was presented and the advantages and disadvantages
discussed. Councilman Shirley suggested that Plan C or D be studied
more closely. If Plan D were tipped up about 5% it would miss the
camp, house and pumps; it would give a closer access to the highway
and the property owner would still have access to the easement over
the tracks.
Mayor Nordahl read a telegram from Hardin, Fletcher, Cook
and Hayes, I attorneys for Edwin Hagemann~ advising the Council that
the Hagemann property is not for sale and any condemnation action
will be strenuously opposed.
Mr. Arnold Abrott~ representing the Kaiser Company, spoke
objecting to Plan A and B. Air easements would include a portion
of their property and the grantor of said easements would be pro-
hibited from erecting any structure in excess of 50 feet in height.
His company's operation would require a boom to be used in this
area which is 100 to l50 feet in height.
Mr. Lowell Miller, representing George Jamison~ objected to
Plans A and B for the same reasons as Mr. Abrott. Plans C and D
would be less objectionable.
The Council further di~cussed the various locations and what
the severance costs might be in the case of Plan C or D.
On motion of Councilman Shirley, seconded by Councilman
Medeiros, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the City Manager
was authorized to order a preliminary appraisal on severance costs
involved in Plan C and D.
Grant Application for Exempt Solicitor's License
An application for an exempt solicitor's license was received
from the Las Hermanas Tri-Hi-Y Club of Y.M.C.A. to solicit funds.

Proposed Widening of a Portion of East Ave.
Councilman Patterson asked about the proposed widening on the
north side of East Avenue. Mr. Parness reported that the property
owners have been contacted regarding this widening and installation
of sidewalk and curb and a hearing was held. An eight foot strip
seemed difficult to obtain so the staff compromisedj a three foot
widening was arrived at with no parking strip. This was the only
thing the City could do and still maintain its standards. The
majority of the property owners still were not in favor of this
improvement.
This matter will be disoussed further at the study session

Richfield Oil Co. Application
The Council discussed the application of Richfield Oil Co.
to rebuild the existing service station located on the northeast
corner of Second and L Streets. This use was denied by the Planning
Commission on the basis of the criteria-of the proposed CB-l zone.
The CB-l zone would be for group-shopping facilities and Zone CB-2
lJ
would provide for op~n land use such as the application submitted.
Since this service station has been in operation at this
location for many years and probably will continue to operate, a
motion was made by Councilman Medeiros and seconded by Councilman
McClaskey to grant the use permit application of Richfield Oil Co.
It was questioned whether or not this was an improper motion and
the matter should be postponed to the next regular meeting for action.
Councilman Medeiros withdrew his motion with the consent of Council-
man ~cClaskey who seconded the motion.
After further discussion, a motion was made by Councilman
Shirley, and seconded by Councilman Medeiros, to approve the
application on the condition that it is legally proper to do so,
and if not, defer action to the next regular meeting; the motion
passed by the following called vote: Ayes--Councilmen McClaskey,
Medeiros, and Shirley; Noes--Councilman Patterson and Mayor Nordahl;

Tentative Map of Tract 2122 - Braddock,
Logan and Valley
A report dated November l2, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission recommending approval of the tentative map of
Tract 2l22, submitted by Braddock, Logan & Valley r lying westerly
of Holmes Street to the south of El Caminito Drive, subject to the
recommendations of the Planning Commission.
Director of Public Works Dan Lee reviewed this tentative
map for the Council and explained that the grade on Holmes Street
has not been determined as yet, this will be developed at a later
time.
~~. D. M. Bissell spoke on behalf of the developer. The main
point of disagreement the subdivider has is in regard to major city
. .. i" *
streets on Homes Street and Blair Avenue to the south. Mr. Bissell
presented a cost estimate on the development of these two streets.
He also stated there appears to be a possible legal problem; the
definition of street improvements in a tract are those that are
34

necessary in general use of the subdivision and local neighborhood
traffic. -A portion of these improvements are actually outside the
city limits and there is a question whether or not the city has
jurisdiction over these improvements.
~~. Wayne Valley of Braddock, Logan & Valley, was present
at the meeting and spoke regarding the equity of having a subdivider
bear the burden of sharing in improvements of a major street. Also
he does not wish to be burdened with putting up a bond for an
indefinite period of time, unt~l the grade on Holmes street can be
established.
Mr. Valley was informed that the City's policy at this time
is that a subdivider is required to improve the width of a normal
I ,I
collector street, 72 feet.
The Council then discussed this tentative map as to the lot
treatment on Holmes street and Blair Avenue and the possibility of
a frontage road instead of backing the lots to the street.
A motion was made by Councilman Shirley to deny the tentative
map of Tract 2122. The motion died for lack of a second.
After further discussion, on motion of Councilman Shirley,
seconded by Councilman McClaskey, and the unanimous vote of the
Council, and with the consent of the developer, the matter was
referred to the adjourned regular meeting next Monday evening,

Municipal Airport Site Selection
At the Council meeting of November 17, 1959 this matter was
postponed so as to permit further investigation on alternate sites.
TO date five alternate alignments (A, B, C, D, and E) have been
reviewed~ all of which are situated westerly of Isabel Avenue and
are between U. S. Highway 50 and East Stanley Blvd. The exact
n
location of each site was pointed out on a map by Mr. Lee and also
those property owners involved were listed. This map is on file in
the office of the Director of Public Works.
.
The City Manager reported that preliminary appraisals have
been completed on two areas in this general vicinity. These
. ,
appraisals incorporate the proposed landing strip locations as
described as Sites B and C and Site E. Generally the appraisals on
both locations indicate that the land value for purchase equals
$2,750 per acre. Air easements are worth about 25% of this amount
or $750 per acre and that land severence with reference to the
Hagemann property is worth $500 per acre. Based on these figures
a cost comparison between Sites B and C and Site E was worked out.
The results of this comparison indicate that Site E will require an
expenditure of $98,172 more than that to be expected in Site B and C.
In reviewing the entire matter, the staff and the Airport
Advisory Committee are unanimous in their recommendation that Site
E be selected ~y the City Council for our proposed municipal airport

relocation.
The Council then discussed the various site locations. They
were concerned about the appraised values of the different parcels
of land; and questioned whether or not the City could, when con-
demnation proceedings were started, withdraw their suit if the
court's appraisal price of the land cannot be met by the City. Mr.
NOV ? ~ 1QJ:jO 39
Parness stated that another appraisal would have to be made before
going ahead.
~w. Jack Srr-ith, representing the FFeisman interests and
Conrad Moldt, stated it appears that the appraisal of the air rights
is substantially below actual value; also the land value itself is
low. In regard to ~~. Moldt's property, Site E would have a sub-
stantial effect on his buildings; this should be given some thought.
Neither of hiS clients.have wanted to start fighting the city without
knowing some facts. VJ1~. Smith stated he would like tbe opportunity
to review these sites with a competent appra:iser.
Since tlle deadline on making application for Federal funds
is December 15, 1959, the Counci1 felt a decision should be made as
soon as possible. Site E seemed to be the most favorable location.
On motion of Councilman Patterson, seconded by Councilman
Shirley, and by the following called vote, the Council authorized
the necessary steps to be taken to acquire the property as outlined
in Site E: Ayes --Coul1(;1.Jmen I\lcClaskeJ~' Patterson, Shirley -and
Mayor Nordahl; Noes--Councilman IVIedeiros; Absent--none.
Councilman t-i1edeiros stated hj,s reason for voting no was that
he' would like to have all property owners together in order to
discuss the matter before making a decision.
Mayor Nordahl stated in voting aye that this site is the
best of the five presented, but in his opinion a site to the north
of the City was more desirable.
On mctivn of Councilman Patterson', seconded by Councilman
Shlrley~ and the unanimous vote of the Council~ the starr was
authorized to prepare the application to Federal Aviation Agency
based on this site selection and process the application.
On motion of Councilman Shirley, seconded by Councilmaxl
IvIcCla13key ~ and the unaniraous vote of the Council~ another appraisal
of the property in question was authorized.
Tentative Approval of Tract 2122
The Councll again discussed the tentative map of l'ract 2122,
and the frontage treatment or the subdivision abutting Holmes Street
40

on the east and Blair Avenue on the south. Due to the hills presently
existing on Holmes Street, the grade variations must be corrected at
the earliest possible time. In a discussion held with the.staff and
representatives of the State Division of Highways during the past
week it appeared possible that the State would be favorably inclined
toward devoting funds for the proper new grade .of this highway and
-----
I
Qaving the travel surface which would remain in excess of the amount
that is being required of the tract developer. The Division of
Highways has requested that our staff submit .preliminary engineering
drawings outlining ~his plan.
A map was presented showing a frontage road treatment along
Blair Avenue for the tract distance. In this regard the subdivider
would be asked to install all street improvements fr.om the property
line outward for a distance of 36 feet and would equal one-half of
the street improvement width required for neighborhood collector
streets.
Mr. D. M. Bissell, engineer for the develope~ of Tract 2l22,
stated that o~ Holme2 Street, he feels the patter~ has been set with
the backing lot treatment. If the Council does ask for a frontage
road along the remaining portion of Holmes Street it would present'
greater problems to the d~veloper as far as drainage is concerned,
r-
: I
,
also grading would be extremely difficult. In regard to Blair
Avenue, they are concerned with the sale of lots; the houses would
be looking out on a weed patch. Also ~here would be a continued
drainage and grading problem. Mr. Bissell also commented that in
the area of the southeast corner of the Wagoner property, the major
street that intersects Isabel Avenue is a departure from what is in
the General Plan.
The Council discussed this frontage road treatment and felt
that before a plan such as this is adopted,.it should be carefully
I I
. I
I
considered. The Council should develop a plan to designate the
roads on the Master Plan which should have frontage road treatment.
A motion was made by Councilman Patterson that on the Master
Plan, the road plan in the area of the outer loop be developed with
frontage road treatment and that the City accept 88 feet as being
(Ie'" 195C 41
adequate for the inner loop or the approximate Tesla Road extension.
The motion died for lack of a second.
A motion was then made by Councilman McClaskey, and seconded
by Counailman Medeiros, that on the map the intermediate loop stree~s
have frontage road treatment with the exception of a segment west-
erly of Holmes Street. Th~ motron passed by the following called
vote: Ayes--Councilmen McClaskey, Medeiros and Shirley; Noes--
Councilman Patterson and Mayor Nordahl; Absent--none.
On motion of Councilman Medeiros, seconded by Councilman
Shirley, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the tentative map
of Tract 2122 was approved subject to the improvement of Holmes
street as outlined on the map and subject to the improvement of
Blair Avenue as a major highway with lot design being as specified
on Exhibit liB!" attached to the tentative map, this all being
provisioned that the Council shall approve these changes by resolution
at the next regular meeting, December 7, 1959.
waive 30 Day Posting Notice on License (Purity)
A request was received from Purity stores asking the Council
to waive the 30 day posting notice on their application for transfer
oLap off sale beer and wi~e license to their new location.
On motion of Councilman Snirley, seconded by,Councilman
Medeiros, and the unanimous vote of the Council~ the 30 day posting
was waived and the City Manager was instructed to so notify the
Department of Alcohol Beverage Control.

A report was received from the Planning Commission containing
a resume of the Planning Commission's action on use permits at their
meeting of November 24, 1959.
An appeal to the Council by the applicant from the action of
the Planning Commission has been received regarding Item 5. 'This
appeal concerns a use permit for the construction of a church~
J'ehovah's Witnesses, on the south side of Locust Street between No.
N and No. C Streets. The Cow~ission voted unanimously to deny this
application as it does not comply with the ordinance.
Mr. William Hardy appeared before the Council representing
the church group and stated they wish to amend their application to
a seating capacity of 48 v1bich VIQuld comply with the requirements in
lhe existing ordinance. It was explained that they like to keep
their groups small; when they do start to grow they split and form
two congregations.

by the City Council.
Councilman r'ledeiros stated that since many of the property
ovmers in the area of the suoject property are dissatisfied \hli th
Lhe Planning Commission decision~ he felt the Council should revievl
the application. Councilman Hedeiros suggested that an amendment

wilhin 300 feet should be notified and if the majority of the people
oppose the application, it should be sufficient reason to deny it.

~~. Herbert M. ~atson was present at the meeting and informed
the Council of his backgrou.nd and experience in radio equipment.
He has offices located in three cities, Richmond, Alameda and
Concord~ and he is not affiliated with any company. Since his
company had a maintenance contract with the City in past years~
they are familiar with the City's radio equipment.
Due to the substantial bid difference, it was reconrnended

by the Ci ty r~lanager that the bid be awarded to the Watson Electric
Co. In the event that the radio deficiency report now being

supported by the maintenance experience of ~"atson Electric Co. , it
may be necessary to replace the four existing Link radio units
prior to the next fiscal year.

Associated Electronics when his report will be completed and he
said in about a week.

ever deposited into this natural drainage channel. The City
Attorney has ruled that in the event the City sanctions a drainage
system whicL purposely diverts water from its natural Gourse to a
substitute one, which in turn causes dov-m stream property damage,
the City may be held liable. By our staff analysis of this matter,
it does not appeaJ.~ that. the great majority of the water would be
diverted from a marmer naturally used in the past.
~~. Messenger, representing the developer, stated that when
the drainage for this area was planned, there were three courses
that could be taken; one ViaS to drain into the gravel pits which
F.B. A. i'fOuld not accept, al'1other to drain into the Arroyo Del Valle
which vlOuld be swi tching the water course J and to drain into the
Arroyo Mocho which was a natural flow to this creek. Drainage to
the Arroyo r.locho was also approved by the Flood Control District.
On motion of Councilman Patterson, seconded by Councilman
Shirley, the Council voted unanimously to accept the recommendations
and opinions of the staff in this matter.

School's site plrolS. Mr. Rundstrom presented a copy of the letter
to the Housing Authority stating they are not interested in the

C0111.rnission regarding the school's need for access roads, utilities
and planning for the second high school site located near E. Stanley

is interested in Wall Street and Mocho Street but they are not
prepared to have an architect give an opinion on the plan for
development of the streets. TI!e District Attorney has advised
them they can tal{e no financial action or enter into any agreement
regarding property not nO\'f o-vmed by them. In approximately two
months the school \1ill know how they want the design. The adjoin-

Protest Decision on Use Permit Application
James Sandlin - Barber Shop
A communication dated December 28, 1958 was received from
Forrest A. Adams appealing the decision of the Planning Commission
on the application of James Sandlin for a use permit to operate a
barber shop at 1279 Livermore Blvd.
The Planning Commission denied this application because the
requested use would be a non-conforming use, and would, therefore,
be in the category of the uses required to be abated by January 1,
1972, as proposed in the proposed zoning ordinance.
Mr. Joseph Schenone, attorpey, spoke on behalf of the
I I
LJ
applicant explaining that this build~ngras been used for commercial
purposes since it was built. It was built as a real estate office
and was later used as a cleaning shop building; also this area is
not strictly residential, there is a motel, trailer court, service
station, corporation yard, wrecking yard and Joesville commercial
buildings along this street. The proposed barber shop would be a
compatible use in this area. The applicant also proposes a two
bedroom home to be built on the property.
The Council then discussed the matter. Mr. C. Carr, owner
of the property, also spoke regarding this application and stated
he had purchased this property as buainess property.
After further discussion, on motion of Councilman Shirley,
seconded 'by Councilman McClaskey, and by the following called vote,
the matter was referred to the study session next Monday evening,

Discussion on Design & Location for Sanitary
Sewer Line re Tracts 1942 & 1963
Director of Public Works D. M. Bissell presented a map pre-
pared-by Sunset Development Co. showing the proposed development
pattern for the portion of the 500 acre Wagoner ranch lying
adjacent to Pleasanton-Livermore Road and the proposed sewer
alignment for the sanitary sewer trunk line to serve Tracts 1942
and 1963. He 'also explained the problem involved regarding the
sanitary sewer line for these two tracts; this sewer line is to
connect to the south trunk sewer at the Pleasanton-Livermore Road.
The question to be determined is the area which should be served,
and the responsibility of the subdivider in the installation of
:1
said line.
I.J
Mr. Bissell has recommended that the subdivider should be
responsible for the installation of a line of sufficient size and
depth to serve at least the 500 acres under option by the sub-
If', rd '1 (l 10"'9
".. M:~ .i t) !~:>:~,

divider which would necessitat~ a larger size sewer line to be
installed at a greater depth than proposed by the subdivider,
and which would sewer the 57 acres at the southwest corner of
the Wagoner property. The City would be responsible for the
additional size necessary to serve additional areas to the
south and east.
The Council than discussed the matter as to a policy equitable
to everyone, the line should be in the best location to serve the
greatest area. There are two policies by which the excess size
can be financed, by contribution of City monies to the excess size
of the trunk line and by reimbursement to the developer from a
benefit district. It was suggested that these two policies be
computed in terms of cost and design, the area which might be served,
and the cost to the city contributed because of the difference in
size of the line. The matter was postponed to the meeting of
February 2, 1959.

Report of Planning Commission
Use Permit & Variance Applications - Leo W. Blow
A report dated January 28, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission regarding the use permit application submitted
by Leo Blow for a retail building material business located at
1210 Railroad Avenue and an application for variance from the fence
regulations.
This matter was discussed in a joint study session with the
Planning Commission on January 26th. The Planning Commission
contended that a waiver of the fence regulations may only be
granted by means of a variance. Mr. Parness stated that the im-
ill
L
provement standards contained within the proposed zoning ordinance
are not legally effective at this time and may only be imposed at
the discretion of the Planning Commission and City Council if said'
bodies feel they are reasonable standards. It is doubtful that tre
requirement for fencing around the subject property as stated in
the proposed zoning ordinance need be imposed, consequently the
need for variance from this requirement is unnecessary.
Mr. Parness stated that since the proposed zoning ordinance
is not in effect, the Planning Commission plans to adopt the pro-
posed zoning ordinance in resolution form so they may be guided by
it by reference.
On motion of Councilman Shirley, seconded by Councilman
Medeiros and the unanimous vote of the Council, the use permit was
granted subject to the recommendations of the Planning Commission
with the exception that the fence be omitted on the east and south

Deny Request for Dog Pound Services
Mr. Parriess reported that in October, 1957 a request was
received from the City of Pleasanton asking that our city give
consideration to extending our dog pound services to their community
on a cost plus basis. While investigating this matter, Pleasanton
asked that their request be postponed for internal reasons.
A subsequent request was received in December, 1958 again
asking that animal control services be provided for 2 man days per
month.
This matter was thoroughly investigated by the Police Chief
and Poundmaster who have recommended a denial of the request solely
based upon the present and expanding work load of this department
in service to our City.
On motion of Councilman Medeiros, seconded by Councilman
McClaskey, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the request of
the City of Pleasanton for dog pound services was denied.

Complaints on Garbage Fees
Mayor Pro-tempore Patterson stated there has been many
complaints about exorbitant prices the merchants are charged for
garbage pickup.
Mr. Patterson commented that the proposal submitted by the
present garbage contractor presented the best equity to all parties
concerned.
Mr. Figone of the Livermore Disposal Service was present at
the meeting stating that he has had seven complaints and has
contacted each person. Mr. Figone has agreed to cut-the-bill in
half and have the merchant keep track of the amount picked up each
month. This arrangement was agreeable to all but two parties.
Mayor Pro-tempore Patterson commented in no case does it
seem they are charging anyone more than they should. The merchant
should compact his garbage to reduce his bill. Mr. Figone seems to
be complying with the regulations of the ordinance.

Proposed Agreement with Sunset Development Co.
Re Sanitary Sewer System
At a study session of the City Council on February 9, 1959
informal approval was extended by the City Council to the proposal
of the Sunset Development Co. for a sanitary sewer system to serve
Tracts No. 1942 and 1993 in addition to the balance of the proposed
Granada Village improvement which consists of atota1 of 442 acres.
This contract requires the subdivider to install a sewer line
of greater capacity than would be required to serve the two sub-
divisions in question, together with additional capacity to serve
developable land throughout the same sector of this tract. The
first portion of the excess capacity in this system shall be
financed by the subdivider with reimbursement provided based upon
a benefit district formation from the remaining 442 acres over a
15 year term until the excess costs have been returned to the
1
developer. The additionU capacity required by the City shall be
financed by the City since this line is one of those designed as a
major trunk facility on our master sewer plan. Since the City
contribution to this project will exceed the $200 maximum limit for
public works projects, which will necessitate formal sealed proposals,
it is suggested that the City not contribute any dollar contribution
to this improvement but rather extend an equal amount of credit to
the developer in annexation fees. This will permit construction
bids to be solicited by the developer at an early date which will
prove expedient and economical to both parties. At lease three bids
will be received, which will be subject to review and approval of
the City before award. The City Attorney has concurred in the
legality of this provision.
City Attorney Callaghan reported that the present ordinance
limits the time for recovery under the benefit district to be 10
ye~rs instead of 15.
The contract will be ready for execution at the next meeting
also the City Attorney will prepare an amendment to Ordinance No.
308, setting the time limit for recovery at 15 year~.

Shirley, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the Council agreed,
after discussion at a study session, that a policy decision re-
garding sanitary sewer installation be as follows:
Mr. Mehran of Sunset Development Co. be required to pay for
complete installation of 8" sanitary sewer lines for approximately
5000' to serve Tracts 1942'and 1963. However, for 2500' the
additional 12" size required to serve 442 of the 500 acres in
question would be allocated to a benefit district consisting of
442 acres and excepting Tracts 1942 and 1963.
The City will pay for a further increase in size consisting
of 21" line over 2500' and a 15" line over the remaining 2500'.
The maximum size line will be financed by Mr. Mehran and upon
further motion by Councilman Shirley, seconded by Councilman
McClaskey, and the unanimous vote of the Council, it was decided
that the City's contribution to this project be financed by
extending an equal amount of credit to the developer in annexation

a resume of the Planning Commission's action on use permit applicatl~
at their meeting of February 24, 1959. No action was taken.
Authorize Issuance of Building Permit to
Armco Drainage & Metal Products Inc.
Mr. Parness reported that a use permit has been granted the
Armco Drainage & Metal Products, Inc. for construction of an
industrial plant in our newly annexed area. A technical defect
involving the issuance of a building permit which ordinarily cannot
be granted until the property is properly zoned has arisen. The
rezoning is now under way and the hearings have been scheduled by
the Pl~ning Commission. Since ~t is a contractual obligation on
the part of the City to rezone this to industrial usage, it would
impose an undue delay on the applicant to await completion of this
procedure before issuance of a bUilding permit.
On motion of Counc~lman Medeiros, seconded by Councilman
McClaskey, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the Building
Department was instructed to issue a building permit to Armco

Report of Planning Commission
Tentative Map of Tract 2022 - Nojet Co.
A communication dated February 26, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission recommending acceptance of the tentative map of
Tract 2022 submitted by Nojet Co. lying north of Pacific and South
o
Livermore Avenues, south of East Avenue, and east of School st.,
in the City of Livermore, subject to the recommendations of the
Director of Public Works. (A copy of which is on file in the office
of the City Clerk.)
The Council then discussed this tentative map and were concerned
regarding the lot treatment along East Aven~e. The Planning Commission
granted approval to this design subject to the installation of a 61
high.solid block masonry wall, with the interim distance between
curb face and wall face to be surfaced with asphaltic concrete.
Street trees would be located within this region. .
The Council objected to this wall and felt that the houses
should face East Avenue and it would be most desirable to have a
n
IJ
service road with proper ingress and egress, although this would
probably be unfair to the developer as no other subdivision in
this area has been required to install such a service road. The
Council also objected to the lot sizes in this proposed tract.
On motion of Councilman Shirley, seconded by Councilman
McClaskey, and by the following called vote, the Council rejected
the tentative map and recommended that a conference be held to study
the problem: Ayes--Councilmen McClaskey, Medeiros, Patterson,
Shirley and Mayor Nordahl; Noes--none; Absent--none.
Report of Planning Commission - Deny Request
to Reduce Lot Sizes in Tet. l82l-Intra Pacific Bldrs.
A communication dated February 26, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission recommending denial of the request of Intra
Pacific Builders to reduce the size of Lots 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and
10 in Tract 1821 to a width of fifty feet.
Don Bissell, Director of Public Works, reported that a
subdivision adjacent to Tract 1821 will be coming before the

MAR 2 1959
C', '-"1
,;~p i
Planning Commission, which proposed tract has an average lot size of
5000 sq. ft. and ties in with this plan for reduced lot sizes.
Mr. D. Carlson, of George Nolte, Civil Engineer's Office,
presented a map revising the sizes of the lots to 60' frontage and
explained their building program for the overall a~ea. He stated
the developer is very anxious to go ahead with the building of
model homes.
The Council recommended that the developer apply for building
permits on Lots 1 and 2 for their model homes and submit a Record
of Survey on the balance of the lots together with the proposed
tract to the rear.
City Attorney Callaghan also suggested that a fire hydrant
be installed and paving completed in Tract 1821 so that the improve-
ments can be accepted.
Designate Name of Old City Hall Building
On motion ~f Councilm~n Shirley, seconded by Councilman
Medeiros, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the old City Hall
building was designated as the "Hall of Justice".

An application for a use permit to establish an appliance

Commission, the applicant has elected to submit the matter for
Council review. Copies of the appeal and Planning Committee recom-
mendations are on file in the City Clerk's office.
The Council discussed the application and on motion of
Councilman Shirley, seconded by Councilman Patterson, and by the
follo~ing called vote, the use permit was granted: Ayes--Councilmen

Report of Planning Commission
Tentative Map of Tract 2028 - Intra Pacific Bldrs, Inc.
A communication dated March 11, 1959 was received from the
Planning CommiSSion recommending acceptance of the tentative map of
Tract 2028 submitted by Intra Pacific Builders, Inc. lying west of
Rincon Avenue adjacent to the present sewage disposal plant, subject
to the recommendations of the Director of Public ~10rks.
Mr. D. Carlson of George Nolte Engineers, representing the
developer, was present at t~e meeting and requested that an amend~
ment be made to the requirement for a storm sewer. Mr. Carlson
stated that this is a very small tract and it does not seem fair
that the developer should pay for both the installation of the
storm drain plus the per acre storm drain fee as outlined in the
"Livermore storm Drainage Report".
The Council then discus~ed the matter and it was suggested
that a per acre fee be set up to include all storm drains in that
area.
On motion of Councilman Medeiros, seconded by Councilman
Patterson, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the tentative map
of Tr~ct 2028 was approved with the recommendations of the Director
of Public Works with the exception of storm drainage which will be
discussed at the ~udy session of March 23rd.

Award Contract for Construction of Industrial
Sanitary Sewer - McGuire and Hester
The City Manager reported upon the analysis of the bids
submitted on March 2, 1959 and strongly urged that the Council
consider the acceptance of a proposal based upon maximum design
criteria or a 7,000 gallon per acre per day capacity. Of those
firms bidding, the proposal of Vincent Rodrigues is the lowest for
the City's portion of the contract with McGuire and Heater as the
lowest total proposal.
II
The two companies who are signators to the contract for the
installation of the line with the City, namely Southern- Pacific
Co. and Standard Realty & Development Co., have proposed to the
City that the. bid of McGuire and Hester be accepted since this
amount represents the lowest dollar amount to the railroad companies.
If this bid is accepted, the two companies have formally agreed to
reimburse the city for the dollar difference between the lowest bid
submitted for the City's part and the proposal of McGuire and
Hester, which is an amount of $14,228. The City Attorney has
determined that this proposal is legally permissible.

ment in the location of a site for the proposed State College in
I i
Alameda County. There will be a hearing by the State Public Works
Board and a tour will be made of the various sites. Mr. Odell
requested that the City Manager and the Director of Public Works

to purchase property adjacent to the Gladding McBean property, just
outside the City limits on the Livermore-P1easanton Road although
she cannot conform to the requirement of 500 ft. from residential
homes, and asked ror the Council1s reaction to this location.
Mrs. Nowling was informed that this location would probably
have opposition from the residents in the area and the Council would
reconnnend to the County that it be denied.
Mrs. Nowling stated that another possible location would be
out in the industrial area westof Vasco Road between the two railroads.
As yet he has not contacted the owner or even seen the site.
It was suggested that this matter again be discussed at the

Council members go out to look at the site and Mrs. Nowling contact
the owner regarding the property.

Report of Planning Commission
Tentative Map of Tract 2037, Sunset Dev. Co.
A communication dated March 25, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission recommending acceptance of the tentative map
of Tract 2037 submitted by Sunset Development Co. lying south of
Elaine Avenue encompassed by Tract 1963 on the North, East and
II
I I
I I
West, subject to the recommendations of the Director of Public
:'lorks. (A copy of which is on file in the office of the City Cle:>k.)
It was explained that this tract involves the same property that
has been sugg~sted as a new elementary school site and presented
for Council review some weeks ago. Since the developer and the
school officials could not come to terms on purchase price, the
developer has elected to submit a proposed tract for the area.
Legally, the City's only recourse is to consider the adoption of
this subdivision.
~~. Joe Michell, Superintendent of the Livermore School
District was present at the meeting objecting to this tract. Mr.
Michell stated that this particular area was selected for a school
site by the subdivider and was agreed upon by the Planning Commission,
the City Council, the developer and the School Board. He explained
I i
I 'I
'I~
that the school board cannot operate as fast as other concerns;
monies will be available for the purchase of this property in July
IIOP 6 1cr::a 387
of this year. ~!e School Board has officially requested the District
Attorney to start condemnation proceedings to take possession of
this area for a school site.
r~. M. Mehran of Sunset Development Co., also present, stated
that this is the only clear parcel of land he owns and if the
Council postpones action this ev~ning~ he will be at a standstill.
Mr. Mehran explained that they have to do the engineering work yet
and it will be months before they come in with the final map for
approval. If the School District buys this property, they can
purchase other property; timing is their greatest concern.
After some discussion by the Council, on motion of Councilman
Patterson, seconded by Councilman McClaskey, and the unanimous vote
of the Council, the tentative map of Tract 2037 was approved subject
to the recommendations of, the Director of Public '.lo:C'ks and further
subjec~c to the condition that any engineering costs incurred on this
particular piece of property from this day on will not be passed on
.
to the School District.

2. lIJhen do you expect to cross the track and make this a functional
road and at whose expense.

other subdividers; it will proceed when traffic need
is there and monies available.
3. Would you, if you had the money, spend it on this project.

would urge this road immediately.

requesting a substitution of a redwood grapestake fence set betv1een
brick pillars spaced at 13 foot centers instead of a solid

would be much more compatable Hith the type used across the street.

man Medeiros, seconded by Councilman McClaskey, and by the follow:tng

applications taken by the Planning Commission at their meeting of
May 12, 1959.
A communication dated May 13, 1959 was received from John

applicable to a professional office zone under the proposed zoning

and operation of a private recreation center on East Avenue west
of Vasco Road, subject to the requirements imposed by the County

Recommendation of Planning Commission
Referral from County on Rezoning Application of E. Brady
A communication dated June 12, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission regarding the application for rezoning of the
Brady property on the south side of College Avenue to R-4 zoning.
Mr. Brady was present at the meeting stating the County
had postponed action of his application so that he could present
it to the City for their recommendation and he wished to know if
the Council would also require the RG zone.
The County zoning would require at least 2000 sq. ft. of
gross lot area per dwelling unit, which would equal our present RM
zone in the proposed zoning ordinance. However, since this site is
located in a single family residential zone and not suggested for
multiple residential use by the General Plan, the Planning
Commission has recommended that the standards contained within the
newly drafted Garden Apartment District (RG) be used. This would
require 2,800 sq. ft. of gross lot area per unit.
The Council felt they could not make a decision until they
studied this proposed new RG zone, and on motion of Councilman
Medeiros, seconded by Councilman Shirley, and the unanimous vote
of the Council, the Council will meet with the Planning Commission
next Monday evening to discuss this matter and make a recommendation
to the County Planning Commission.

Approve Tentative Map of Tract 2098 (Sunset Dev. Co.)
A report dated September 4, 1959 was received from the
Planning Commission recommending approval of the tentative map of
Tract 2098 subject to the recommendations of the Planning Staff
and further recommendations of the Commission as outlined in their
I I
letter. Mr. George Riek explained the various recommendations on
this tract to the Council.
Mr. Parness recommended approval of the tentative map subject
to the conditions as recommended by the Planning Commission with
one exception to be noted. A portion of the sanitary sewer
facility for this development is proposed to be located along an
alignment planned for future street purposes for an adjoining tract.
There is some possibility that this property may be acquired for
elementary school purposes and in such an event this section of the
sanitary sewer line would have to be relocated and increased in size.
The Planning Commission has recommended that such possible relocation
be made an obligation of the subdivider. Mr. Parness questioned tte
legality and equality of such a provision. The only requirement
that can be imposed by the Commission are those requirements for
public works facilities to adequately service the subject develop-
ment and any others adjacent thereto. If a foreign type of
II
.~
improvement were to occur at a date subsequent to the residential
SfP 8 1959 477
l
development, sueh improvement should be required to satisfy thejr
own needs, therefore it is recommended that the provision requiring
this developer to guarantee the possible future relocation of the
subject segment of the sanitary sewer line be deleted.
After some discussion by the Council on this proposed
tract, on motion of Councilman Medeiros, seconded by Councilman
McClaskey, and the unanimous vote of the Council, the tentative
map of Tract 2098 was approved subjeet to the recommendations and
conditions as set forth by the Planning Commission with the
exception of Section B, Item 4, which was deleted as outlined in
the City Banager's recommendation.
Report from Engineering Staff re Storm Drain Facilities
Granada Village
Geo~ge C. Riek, Associate Civil Engineer, reported on the
proposed storm drainage facilities for the Granada Village area.
The main channel is proposed to be developed as an open ditch
rather than' with underground pipe structures. The staff has
carefully reviewed the proposal and concedes that it is a reasonable
compromise since this a11gnment would require the installation or
a pipe size in excess of 60 inches. This proposed channel would
be adequately protected on both sides by a chain link fence and
I
is situated on the westerly extremity of the residential develop-
ment, thereby minimizing objectionable appearances. Internal
I
drainage lines would be constructed in accordance with our drainage
plan_ and deposit into I this channel. The main problem concerned
with this open ditch drainage would be a maintenance problem, weeds
and trash.
I
I
I
If such storm drain facility is approved, a benefit district
would be formed since the drainage system would serve an area of
between 200 and 300 acres larger than the Granada Village improvement.
After some discussion by the Council, on motion of Council-
man McClaskey, seconded by Councilman Medeiros, and the unanimous
vote of the Council, the proposed design of this drainage system
was approved and the staff was instructed to finalize the
4"t'~
SEP 8 1959
description of the benefit area for Council approval.
