413 of a multitude of services performed by Mr. King. Mr. Kurlich re- ferred to several agreements with the City, beginning in March of 1980, to February of 1983, and also referred to a letter from Phil Elliott, written in May of 1983, stating that these documents were null and void. Mr. Kurlich said in his opinion, these documents were still legal and binding. Mr. Kurlich said he feels that someone from the City should meet with them and come to some kind of agreement on these matters concerning repayment. -- City Attorney Edwards stated with regard to the agreement dated March of 1980, that was an agreement with the City of Colton, the City of Rialto, and a firm known as One Sheep Jumped Over The Fence, and dealt with storm drain provisions, which was before the formation of the assessment district. Mr. Kurlich replied that was correct, however, someone had to get things started in order to prepare for the formation of the assess- ment district and provide the necessary improvements that would be needed. City Manager Elliott then related comments from a discussion with F. MacKenzie Brown, Legal Counsel for the Assessment District, re- garding payments to be made and his recommendations. Mr. Elliott said these matters could possibly be resolved by a court of law. Q Mr. Kurlich then replied it would seem that all concerned could come Q to a fair and economical decision on these matters, rather than going through a court of law, as that could take anywhere from 4 to 5 years. City Attorney Edwards then stated that he would be happy to meet with Mr. Kurlich, and anyone else, in an attempt to get these matters re- solved. Councilman Rios then stated he was of the understanding that at a previous meeting, Staff was directed to review these matters and make a report to the City Council with regard to the reimbursements that were to be made. Mr. Rios said he felt this was rather redun- dant to continually be discussing the same thing over and over, and he felt Staff should bring this back to the Council for approval when they have something resolved and a final figure for payment, rather than to be rehashing the matter at every meeting. Councilwoman Cisneros stated that she was in agreement with Council- man Rios, and some of the documentation that Staff has referred to she has never seen, and therefore, it is rather difficult to come to a decision when the Council Members do not have all of the material to study or all of the facts. Mrs. Cisneros stated that she would like to be present at any meetings held with Mr. King and his associ- ates. After additional discussion, moved by Councilman Rehrer, seconded by Councilman Rios, approving payment to Chuck King & Associates in the amount of $5,438.08, for certain fees and costs relating to Assess- ment District No. 79-1. Unanimous vote. RECREATION AND PARKS COMMISSION REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Councilman Rios discussed the matter of proposed alterations at Cen- tral Ballpark by moving the ballpark fence and lights approximately 20 feet in order to make the ballpark a legal -sized field, as re- quested by the Little League. Discussion followed among Council Members and Staff with regard to the work involved, costs, where the funding would come from for the proposed alterations, etc. Moved by Councilwoman Cisneros, seconded by Councilman Rios, to refer this matter back to Staff for study and report, the costs involved and source of funding, etc. Unanimous vote. ,I A,,,4 7 Irf84F 6
