City Hall, 20 Civic Center Plaza, with the following Council-
men present: J. Ogden Markel, John Garthe, Harry K. Yamamoto,
Vernon S. Evans, James E. Ward and Mayor Jerry M. Patterson.

Withers, Director of Planning Charles C. Zimmerman, Director
of Public Works Ronald Wolford, Police Chief Raymond C. Davis,

NEIGHBORHOOD VANDALISM Police Chief Davis
reported that Mr. Conway,
Manager of the Villa
Grande Mobile Home Park,
adjacent to the Union Hall at 1531 East Chestnut, was satisfied
with the information provided regarding the number of police
incidents occurring in the area. He further stated that a
follow-up to comments by Mrs. Janice Boer and Mr. Oliver P.
Jensen at the Council meeting of February 4, 1974, regarding
lack of response, had been accomplished satisfactorily; and
that programs have been initiated to improve citizen-police
telephone dialogue.
Chief Davis reported that malicious mischief is not a major
problem in the City; and that there were about 560 such inci-
dents in 1973. (CA 47; CA 127)
ENERGY CRISIS The City Manager reported
that the gasoline supply
for City vehicles is
good, but that most
gasoline stations in the City are running out of their alloca-
tions at the end of the month.
Councilman Ward described the "Hayes-SCAG" Plan which markets
gasoline on odd-even system; i.e., if a license plate ends in
an odd number, gas for the car can be purchased on odd-numbered
days, even license plates purchase on even days. The plan
also provides for Sunday closing, posting of hours of operation,
daily commercial and emergency vehicle provisions regardless of
odd or even license plate. He stated that SCAG is recommending
statewide implementation of the system; that its workability
depends on its uniform adoption by counties and cities; that
local officials should respond and give some direction to the
matter to bring order to the chaos and panic; and that in his
opinion the City should adopt the plan and refer it to the
County and other County cities. (CA 145.5)
EXECUTIVE SESSION At 1:15 P.M. Mayor
Patterson announced a
