City Council Meeting -5- October 13, 1981
5. PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION OF THE REVOCATION OF THE CARDROOM LICENSE OF
YANKEE DOLLAR CARDROOM
This being the time and place as advertised, Mayor Hyde opened the public hearing.
City Attorney Lindberg stated that his office has requested the revocation of the card-
room license based on evidence presented by Police Sergeant Bourgeois and primarily
the fact that the transfer of the license from the original holder was not a proper
transfer -- it was not approved by the Police Department and no clearance was made.
In accordance with the procedures of this hearing, the City Clerk swore in all witnesses.
Sergeant Bourgeois testified that he received anonymous telephone complaints approxi-
mately three months ago in which the caller stated that 50~ worth of chips were being
taken by the dealer of the cardroom for each hand and the caller felt this was illegal,
that this was in excess of the $2.50 regulated by the ordinance; Sergeant Bourgeois
visited the cardroom and witnessed the dealer taking these chips and putting them aside
for a "jackpot"; citation was issued to the owner for this illegal practice; the
case went to Court and the Judge ruled in favor of the defendant based on the fact
that the police officer did not witness this proceeding for at least one hour; an
undercover detective subsequently went to the cardroom and played for over an hour and
witnessed the same chips being taken for the jackpot; another citation was issued;
however, Sergeant Bourgeois found out that the license was still in the name of Joseph
Raso. Mr. Ball, co-owner of the cardroom, told the police that he bought the cardroom
for $4,800 - his check, however, was returned for "insufficient funds", and that the
"deal" was done by a handshake - no paper work was involved. Sergeant Bourgeois added
that the name of Harriet Myers appears on thecheck; that both she and Meredith Ball have
a joint banking account; that both persons have had experience in cardroom operations
in the City of San Diego; that Mr. Ball has been quite deceptive in his dealings with the
cardroom.
Harriet Myers, 4265 Azure Street, San Diego, testified that last November, she and
Mr. Ball gave money to Floyd Briggs for the sale of the Yankee Dollar cardroom.
An officer came in and told them that Mr. Briggs had no right to sell the cardroom
since he did not own the license; that if they did buy the cardroom, it would take
them one year for the transfer. Ms. Myers added that she started to fill out the
transfer forms last month. As to the 50¢ from each hand, she stated it was purely
voluntary on the part of the customers, it is a consolation prize for the losing hand
and she did not know it was illegal.
Meredith Ball, 4265 Azure Street, San Diego, testified regarding the purchase of
the cardroom in November of last year from Floyd Briggs. The police officer told
them not to worry about it "because this has been what has been done before - you
are just doing what someone else has done ahead of you so all you have to do is to
continue in the cardroom until such time as you can buy the license from the
original owner, Joe Raso." After talking to Joe Raso, they did not have the amount
of money he wanted so continued to work the cardroom until such time as they had
the money to buy the license. In September, Mr. Ball went to the Police Department
to make the proper transfer and was told that this was not the way it should be
handled. In the meantime, he continued the jackpot - each hand, the players
contributed voluntarily 50¢ toward the jackpot for the second lowest hand in lo-ball.
He did not feel this was illegal. Judge Scott dismissed the case on this citation
because he said the "ordinance governing it was ambiguous and that we would have to
go before the City Council and re-write the ordinance."
The Council questioned Sergeant Bourgeois and the cardroom operators regarding the
various aspects of the transfer of the license; the time elements in conducting the
jackpots; the citations issued; the status of the ownership of the cardroom;
the procedure for conducting another lottery if the license is revoked; the parties
involved can make application for submitting their names in this lottery.
There being no further comment, either for or against, the hearing was declared closed.
MSUC (Hyde/Scott) to revoke the license of the Yankee Dollar Cardroom. The present
operators have up to November 1 (through October 31) as a reasonable time to cease
their operation.
City Council Meeting -6- October 13, 1981
9a. RESOLUTION NO. 10661 APPROVING THE FINAL MAP AND SUBDIVISION IMPROVEMENT AGREEMENT
FOR CHULA VISTA TRACT 80-20 CHARTER POINT (CITY ENGINEER)
9b. RESOLUTION NO. 10662 ACCEPTING GRANT OF EASEMENT FOR STREET PURPOSES FOR APACHE
DRIVE AND OTAY LAKES ROAD; NAMING AND DEDICATING SAID STREETS
FOR PUBLIC USE
9c. RESOLUTION NO. 10663 ACCEPTING CASH BOND OF $15,000 FOR THE FUTURE CONSTRUCTION OF
"B" STREET AS SHOWN ON THE TENTATIVE MAP
9d. RESOLUTION NO. 10664 APPROVING THE AGREEMENT NOT TO PROTEST THE FORMATION OF A
REIMBURSEMENT DISTRICT FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF TELEGRAPH
CANYON ROAD
9e. RESOLUTION NO. 10665 AMENDING CONDITION 17 OF RESOLUTION 10276
9f. RESOLUTION NO. 10666 APPROVING AN AGREEMENT FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF AN OFFSITE
PORTION OF TELEGRAPH CANYON ROAD
City Engineer Lippitt referred to his staff report and explained the continuances of
this item due to the problem with security for the offsite improvements of Telegraph
Canyon Road. The original owner of the property was Gersten Company and the new
owner is Pacific Scenes. Mr, Lippitt commented that the situation was an unusual
one because it involved not only this development, but the one just to the east of
Otay Lakes Road. The subdivision improvement agreement includes the portion adjacent
to the subdivision along Telegraph Canyon Road (adjacent to Apache Drive).
There is an additional agreement for the offsite portion. The developer has been
before the Council to authorize condemnation for right-of-way based upon the original
intention to put in 57 feet of pavement. During the map review by Engineering, it was
felt that the portion between the median islands and the future street of Paseo
Ranchero should have the installation of the improvements now to its ultimate
location rather than just widening it to the 57 feet. This required a redesign
of the improvement plans. The developer was willing to do that and staff is
recommending approval of a different agreement for the offsite improvements inasmuch
as the developer will be building his project in three separate phases - plus the
project to be developed to the east of this area.
As to the five year bonding, City Engineer Lippitt stated that the developer must
pay the premiums and if he does not, it is up to the bonding company to go after
him for the payments. City Attorney Lindberg responded that the lien agreement orig-
inally proposed was not accepted by the developer and he subsequently is offering a
bond which under the State Subdivision Map Act is equivalent to cash or the lien
agreement.
RESOLUTIONS 9A THROUGH F OFFERED BY COUNCILMAN COX; the reading of the texts was
waived by unanimous consent, passed and approved with Councilman Scott castino a
"no" vote on items 9c and 9e.
CONTINUED MATTERS AND SECOND READING OF ORDINANCES
15. Action on revocation of Taxicab Certificate for Mack's Hack (City Attorney}
Mayor Hyde stated that he was not present at the hearing; however, he has read all
the material on it and is prepared to vote. City Attorney Lindberg ruled that the
Mayor may participate in the discussion and voting on this matter.
City Attorney Lindberg summarized his written report concerning the public hearing
of September 22, 1981, during which testimony was taken regarding Charles McMillan's
use of his taxicab in commission of a misdemeanor by transporting and assisting
aliens in entering the United States illegally. Mr. Lindberg noted that while a
sufficient basis exists for absolute revocation of MP. McMillan's license, that
staff has weighed its finality and severity against the right and need of Mr. McMillan
and his employees to earna livelihood in Chula Vista. Accordingly, it was the con-
sensus of staff that a reasonable suspension for a two month period with a clear
notice to Mr. McMillan that any further criminal activities involving the use of any
of his vehicles, and the failure to properly maintain all of his taxicabs, and to
maintain current insurance policies will result in revocation of hi's certificate.
City Council Meeting -7- October 13, 1981
Attorney Lindber9 added that at the beginning of the meeting, Mr. McMillan approached
him and asked that, rather than a suspension, that the Council place him on some
type of probation with the understanding that all conditions be fulfilled without
need of suspension of his license.
Councilwoman McCandliss noted some areas of concern: (1) the taxicab was not in
good working condition which is a d~rect violation of the ordinance; (2) the question
of Mr. McMillan charging the metered fare or $100 person; (3) the guilty plea to
carrying illegal aliens. She added that she would support a suspension of six months
or one year.
Councilman Scott agreed, commenting on some of the ambiguities in Mr. McMillan's
testimony adding that before the license is renewed, the operator should 9o back
to the City Council for this consideration.
MSUC (Scott/McCandliss) to suspend the taxicab license for Mack's Hack for a
period of six months; before being put back in service or receiving the taxicab
certificate, that a complete safety check be made with the final approval for
the safety being made by the City of Chula Vista - by whatever appropriate person.
Mayor Hyde noted that the suspension is in effect as of tomorrow, October 14, 1981.
RECESS: Council recessed at 9 P.M. and the meeting reconvened at 9:10 P.M.
CLOSED DOOR SESSION
MSUC (Hyde/McCandliss) for a Closed Door Session at the conclusion of the agenda with regard
to possible litigation concerning personnel matters.
REPORT OF THE CITY MANAGER -- Continued
16b. Report on Montgomers Reorganization
City Manager Cole presented a plan for the near term integration of the Montgomery
Fire District personnel into the City's Fire Department. He noted that
there are a number of issues and conditions to be resolved adding that "as we
become more familiar with the Montgomery District and its needs in a more intimate
way, it is probable that our current beliefs regarding the required manning strength
will change and we perhaps will determine a different makeup of fire companies than
we have proposed or that is existing currently under the District."
Mr. Cole added that his proposal would not disrupt either of the agencies and
details could be worked out during the first year of operation. Referring to his
report, Mr. Cole noted that the staff's recommendation was that the County Board
of Supervisors be the conducting authority. If LAFCO approves the annexation on
November 5 and the County Board of Supervisors is indicated as the conducting auth-
ority, then it could go to them and the Board of Supervisors could determine the
annexation to not be appropriate and stop the whole process.
If the City Council is the conducting authority, they could, through a hearing process,
annex the territory without an election. The people of the area would then have a
specified period of time to protest that action by a petition signed by 25% of
the registered voters.
Director of Planning Peterson added that if the petition contains 25% of ~he
registered voters of the area who also own 25% of the assessed value of the
property of the area, then an election is required. If the petition contains more
than 50% of the registered voters owning more than 50% of the assessed value, then
the proceedings are terminated.
Mr. Phil Scheuer, 1196 Third Avenue, #206, Chula Vista (Montgomery area) member
of the Montgomery Local Government Committee stated he reviewed the City Manager's
full analysis of this issue and there are a number of things that should be addressed.
At the LAFCO meeting on September 18, a question was raised as to the financial
impact of Chula Vista if the entire Montgomery areamnexed - this is not addressed
in the City Manager's report. Mr. Scheuer advised the Council not to be the conducting
authority in this matter and let the Board of Supervisors do it. He invited the
Council to come into the community of Montgomery and talk to the people and
see what they want.
City Council Meeting -8- October 13, 1981
Report on Montgomers Reorganization -- Continued
Mr. Don Byrum, President of the Chula Vista Firefighters Association, said
the firefighters just received the Manager's report last Friday and haven't had
much time to think about it. He had a meeting with Director of Public Safety
Winters and the City Manager and came up with a new proposal which, he understood,
was to go to the Council this evening, because this proposal before the Council
is not acceptable to the firefighters. The new proposal has not been submitted to
the Council. Mr. Byrum added that the City Council cannot act on this particular
proposal tonight inasmuch as "it affects the working conditions of my people and it
has to be negotiated upon."
In response to Council's questions, Mr. Cole said there was no agreement to support
Mr. Byrum's proposal. After discussing both proposals with Development Services
Administrator Robens, the City Manager decided to submit the original proposal to
the Council.
