MOTION: Acosta SECOND: Young VOTE: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Acosta, Griset, Hart, Johnson~ Luxembourger, McGuigan, Young None None FILE 410.10 COUNCIL AGENDA ITEMS Councilmember Acosta acknowledged receipt of Mr. David Fraundfelder's letter which raised issues related to various addresses in the French Park area of the City. He requested a report from staff addressing those issues. He also noted that he has received a number of complaints concerning Jacaranda tree droppings. The City Attorney informed Councilmember Acosta that he was not aware of any liability to the City as a result of these tree droppings. Councilmember Acosta requested a report from staff on the parking situation of the Joe Suchy family of 2608 West Montecarlo. This family has been receiving citations for parking their vehicle on the street when street sweeping is scheduled because of inadequate parking available within their condominium complex. Councilmember Dan Young expressed his concern with obtaining the maximum possible input from the affected community with respect to the City's plans for Henniger Park. He requested that the plan be communicated to all involved residents in the neighborhood and in particular to the Citizen Action Committee. They should also be provided with a status report on code enforcement activities in their neighborhood. He also requested that staff look into the South Coast villa Condominiums plan to allow overnight parking on Bear Street. The Councilmember stated he feels that there seems to be a need to relate Code Enforcement staff to specific neighborhoods, a geographical organization of Code Enforcement staff, so as to promote interaction between community and Code Enforcement personnel. Lastly, Councilmember Young requested from staff an update of bike trail activity. Councilmember Johnson expressed concern that staff continue to work to remove illegal signs in the area of South Bristol. Councilmember Hart expressed his interest in staff responding to the Fraundfelder letter mentioned earlier in this portion of the meeting. Councilmember McGuigan noted the volume of duplication of backup material councilmembers are receiving as part of their agenda packets. The duplication does not seem to be improving the readability of the material and as such practice should be discontinued. She also noted that Proposition 43 on the June Ballot, if passed, would be of benefit to the City. She noted receipt of a petition from residents living on Mar-Les Lane and CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 205 MAY 19, 1986
