X11 Citizens Committee had been appointed primarily for the Community Center Project, he would like to see the Committee charged for reviewing all three projects, that is, the Community Center, the Swimming Pool, and the North Colton Park. Mayor Huntoon said by having this committee handle all three projects it would eliminate the need to appoint more committees and would reduce the number of meetings necessary to review these projects. Mayor Huntoon then called for input from the Council in regards to his memorandum and that of making the appointed Committee the overall Community Projects Committee. Moved by Councilwoman Spragins, seconded by Councilman Rehrer, to designate the Community Center site Selection Committee as the Community Projects Committee to review the projects of the Community Center, the Swimming Pool and the North Colton Park. Vote was unanimous. Mayor Huntoon announced that Mr. George Williams, Director of Planning and Special Services will be the liason between the Citizens Committee and the City Council and that Mr. Randy Johnsen would also be assisting. Mr. Williams reaffirmed the Mayor's Memorandum, saying that amending this year's HUD application under the Housing and Community Development Act would be quite an involved process, requiring initially the same procedure as origin- ally followed; that is, citizen participation, public hearings, etc. Mr. Williams stated that he just wanted the City Council to be aware that HUD has just recently approved their first year's allotment and a. late amendment could very possible jeopardize projects and allotments. Mr. Williams stated the Council had copies before them tonight of the City's short term objectives as well as the overall three year program as compiled by our Consultant. Mr. Williams said the report includes a one year program and the three year plan. Mr. Williams further reported that Staff will be starting the procedure for next year's program this October and the final application will have to be submitted to SCAG by March 1, 1975, followed by submittal to HUD by April 15; thereafter, HUD has 75 days in which to comment on our application, making July 1, 1976 the approval date. Mr. Williams said the Consultant had provided basic guidelines to follow during the review process by the Committee and that Staff would be working very closely with the Committee and the City Council on the three projects. Council discussion followed. City Manager Huffaker reported that minutes of each weekly Committee Meeting will be provided as soon as possible, so that all can be aware of what is happening. Moved by Councilwoman Spragins, seconded by Councilman Hayes, to follow the program outlined and presented by Mayor Huntoon through his Memorandum dated September 11, 1975, entitled "Objectives of the Community Development Program Committee". EXHIBIT A CITY OF COLTON California M E M O R A N D U M TO: Council Members City Manager City Attorney Director of Planning & Special Services Asst, to the City Manager FROM: ALBERT A. HUNTOON, Mayor SUBJ: Objectives of the Community Development Program Committee Community Center: 1. Come up with a definite idea of exactly what this Community Center is envisioned to be. C 0 P Y September 11, 1975 2. Determine site location, preliminary design, and land acquisition. There is a total of $185,000 allocated for this. North Colton Neighborhood Park: Preliminary design and land acquisition. The allocation for this is $55,000. Swimming Pool: 1. Determine if there is a legal way that the City can procure school property to build the pool and/or determine if it is possible to turn the pool over to the school district when the pool is completed. This might not even be a possibility under this program. 2. Analyse the present pool site at Municipal Park considering that the City already owns the property. We have the basic locker rooms, the excavation is already there; how valuable a consideration is the warm water well? 3. Consider the feasibility of two or three mini -pools in various sections of town. This year's allocation for this is $15,000. Next Year's Allocation! The public hearing for next year's HCDA allotment should be during the month of October. The Director of Plan- ning and Special Services informed me that we would be ill advised to try to alter this year's allotment at this late date. By doing so, we could very well lose our next year's allotment. There has been quite a lot of thought of deviating from the program as outlined for this year, and I have probably been more guilty of this than anyone else as I had thought we could complete the pool at the school out of this year's allotment without jeopardizing the other two priority projects. It is now obvious to me, that at this time, there are too many unknowns and this simply wouldn't work. AAH:mr Vote was unanimous. Proposed Ordinance for Regulating Sale of Personal Property from Non -Licensed Premises. Mayor Huntoon reported City Attorney Hutton has prepared an ordinance for the purpose of regulating, garage, patio or SES' 11 1675
