<br />Mrs. Marin Vidauri expressed her disappointed in the action taken by the City Council to continue the public hearing
<br />on the Community Development Act projects.
<br />Mayor Pro Tem Gonzales explained that Mayor Beltran is very much interested in the progress of the Community Development

<br />In accordance with notice duly and legally given, an Adjourned Regular Meeting of the City Council of the City of

<br />PUBLIC HEARINGS:
<br />Housing and Community Development Act
<br />Municipal Park - Community Center & Swimming Pool
<br />Mayor Beltran declared the Public Hearing open.
<br />City Clerk Ramos submitted the Affidavit of Publication and reported that no protests or objections had been re-
<br />ceived.
<br />Community Development Coordinator Arturo de la Cerda stated the Citizens Advisory Commission has held public hear-
<br />ings on the proposed projects for Municipal Park and Veterans Park, and their recommendations have been forwarded
<br />to the Council members as outlined in the memorandum dated September 3, 1976.
<br />Mr de la Cerda said that Planning Associate Gary Mitchell will now make the presentation to the City Council.
<br />Mr. Mitchell reviewed the Environmental Assessment Report for the proposed Community Center and Swimming Pool to be
<br />located in Municipal Park.
<br />Mr. Mitchell referred to photographs of the existing improvements and land area of Municipal Park and the site plan,
<br />outlining the locations for the proposed improvements.
<br />Mr. Mitchell continued the proposed project will be located in the northwest corner of Municipal Park, with a
<br />children's play area and lawn area fronting Colton Avenue, behind this a Community Center building, consisting
<br />of approximately 6,500 square feet, a spectator area dividing the pool from the Center building, and a new swim-
<br />ing pool measuring approximately 65 feet by 75 feet of steel construction. To the rear of the proposed improve-
<br />ments would be located the shower and locker rooms and a recreation hall. Mr. Mitchell also outlined alternative
<br />parking areas that would be located in the southwestern area of the park, along "E" Street.
<br />Mr. Mitchell reviewed estimated project financing charts, pointing out that the major expenses would be covered
<br />through HUD funds, with annual operation and maintenance expenses to be funded by the City. Mr. Mitchell also referred
<br />to Impact Studies that have been made, with regard to seismic conditions, air quality, open space, land use and
<br />zoning, circulation, noise, and fiscal costs, stating that none of these elements would create any serious problems
<br />or consequence concerning the proposed developments.
<br />Mr. Mitchell concluded that is anyone had comments or questions, he would be glad to answer them.
<br />Councilman Gonzales stated he would like to suggest, for Council's consideration, that the Community Center building
<br />be moved to the south, adjacent to the Recreation building, and that a wading pool for small children be constructed
<br />next to the large pool, utilizing a portion of the spectator area, enlarging the total swimming pool area.
<br />Mr. Mitchell suggested that this could possibly be considered with the architectural plans at the time of construc-
<br />tion.
<br />Councilman Hayes asked how much more land will be involved for these proposed improvements.
<br />Mr. Mitchell answered approximately 35 to 40 feet of additional land.
<br />Mayor Beltran asked if anyone in the audience desired to be heard.
