Executive Director Martin indicated a growing problem within Block B of the
Redevelopment Agency which he deemed to be very serious. The K -Mart
parking lot started out some time ago with the Agency conducting parking
enforcement and maintenance of the lot through a reciprocal agreement with
the individual owners. Recently there have been 2 requests from CVS /Savon
and Albertsons to be responsible for their own enforcement and
maintenance. Foreseeable problems may occur if these requests are
granted in that there would be no uniform enforcement and only haphazard
maintenance of the lot. The Agency Members were requested to provide
policy direction to staff.
Vice Chairman Wilson stated, if allowed, the lot will have cars parked there at
all hours as well as motor homes. It will go back to the chaos it was before.
The Agency would be making a mistake to turn it over and should continue to
have full control and Sheriff's enforcement.
Mr. Gillanders noted an additional problem with 5 -6 tenants and different
arrangements for parking and regulations for parking for each. You cannot
count on the Sheriff's Department to know the different regulations for each
parcel.
Mr. Arrighi stated the lot should remain under the Agency's jurisdiction and
codes, rather than being piecemeal, with Ms. Wong and Chairman Capra in
agreement.
Vice Chairman Wilson moved to direct the Executive Director to proceed with
negotiations, and if unsuccessful, to authorize an investigation to exercise
eminent domain to turn the K -Mart parking lot into a public parking lot,
seconded by Mr. Arrighi and unanimously carried.
