At 4:41 p.m., the Council
recessed to Room 147, City
Council Chambers, for briefings
by City staff. All members
ORANGE COUNTY JAIL EXPANSION The City Manager explained that
the City recognized the
importance of the Court system
as the City's largest downtown
employer, and the need for the City to cooperate with Orange County
relative to access to the Courts. However, he noted the difference between
pre-trial and post-trial facilities, and indicated the City was opposed
to expansion of the jail to provide increased post-trial facilities,
i.e., a prison. He explained he would elaborate further on this subject
at the evening session of the Council.
1982-83 CITYWIDE SPEED LIMIT STUDY The City Attorney explained
that for the City to utilize
radar, a traffic engineering
study must have been conducted
within five years surveying City streets to determine usage (speed limits),
and basing speed limits within the City upon the results of the survey.
The Director of Transportation explained that speed limits were determined
by not only usage, but accident rate, lane parking and visibility.
The Council instructed the staff to hold neighborhood forums, regarding
Orange and Flower Streets, before presenting those areas of the speed
limit study to the Council for approval.
MISCELLANEOUS PARKING PROVISIONS The Chief of Planning explained
changes that would be coming
to Council relative to parking
standards for condominiums/
apartments, single family dwellings, and office and retail parking re-
quirements. He indicated that staff was attempting to apply the same
standards for all multiple dwelling units, but would be willing to con-
sider development of an overlay zone, relaxing those standards adjacent
to transportation corridors.
Councilmembers Acosta and Luxembourger expressed concern that no
differentiation was made in parking requirements between bachelor
and one-bedroom units. Councilmember Griset expressed his opinion that
the City needed to strengthen standards in order to prevent inadequate
parking for future developments.
