S. Haag proposes for the property at 231 Sea Vale Street by the moving in of a duplex to increase the size of an existing dwelling. Mr. Haag spoke on the subject° He pointed out that he intends to use the existing garage for a tool shed and has made no plans for a new garage. After it was pointed out to Mr. Haag that the City Code requires a garage, it was ~oved by Councilman Sparling~ seconded by Councilman Sylvester~ and carried that action be held over one week while Mr. Haag determines the possibility of placing a garage on the property. Mr. R. D. Evans, 271 Sea Vale, speaking for himself and others in the area, urged that the request to move the duplex into the area be denied. Councilman McCorquodale brought up the point that under existing ordin- ances, it would be possible to move into the City a building that does not meet the minimum square footage requirements. He suggested that possibly the ordin- ance should be amended to provide that the Planning Commission make recommenda- tions on applications to move dwellings into the City. Administrative Officer Ross stated that perhaps the time has come when an ordinance should be d~afted to regulate the moving-in of old buildings and if the Council is agreeable, the staff will give some thought to the matter. The Council concurred that such an ordinance may be needed. j/REPORT ON REQUEST OF MR. ERNEST R. HOUGHTON FOR RELIEF FROM REQUIREMENTS OF SWIMMING POOL FENCING ORDINANCE Administrative Officer Ross reported on the request of Ernest R. Houghton for r~lief from requirements of the swimming pool fencing ordinance for his apartment complex at 483 "F" Street. Mr. Ross stated that it was the opinion of the Building Inspector that the pool is reasonably protected from the general public and recommends approval of the request that the gate be removed, After discussion, it was moved by Councilman Sylvester, seconded by Coun- cilman McCorquodale, and carried that action be held over one week in order for the Council to take a physical look at the premises at 483 "F" Street. TTER OF LEAGUE MEETINGS BEING CHANGED TO THIRD THURSDAY OF MONTH There being no disagreement from the Council, the Mayor stated that he would report at the next Mayors' meeting that the Chula Vista City Council finds no fault in the proposed change of the monthly League meeting date from the third Friday to the third Thursday of each month. ~CLOSING OF PORTION OF EAST OXFORD STREET OPPOSED Mr. Bruce Hill, 444 East Oxford Street, appeared to protest the closing of East Oxford Street between Neptune'and Osage Streets. Administrative Officer Ross pointed out that this portion of East Oxford Street is unimproved private property and not dedicated for street purposes, and that Oxford Street will ul- timately dead-end at the 805 Freeway. Others protesting the closing of East Oxford Street were Mrs. Hill, Phillip and Arlene Galvin, Bill Downs and Gloria Pollard. Councilman McCorquodale suggested that we do all possible to keep East Oxford Street open, at least until the Freeway is built. Administrative Officer Ross pointed out that the State will be taking approximately 150 feet of the area over which East Oxford Street is at the present time.aligned, and assurance that it will be open for street purposes until the Freeway is built will probably be up to the State. Councilman Sparling suggested that the City Engineer find out what possi- bilities there are of getting an underpass for East Oxford Street at the Freeway. Mayor McAllister assured the audience that the Council will take another look at the matter and asked that the City Engineer get a map of the area for Council scrutiny. He stated that if any changes are indicated, after further study, that the State will be petitioned to relieve the situation. 8:00 P.M. - Councilman Sparling was excused from the meeting at this time. ~/~CTION ON COUNTY EXHIBIT AT STATE CAPITOL REQUESTED It was moved by Councilman McCorquodale, seconded by Councilman Anderson, and carried that the Administrative Officer contact the Agency in charge of keeping the San Diego County exhibit in the State Capitol building up-to-date and to contact Senator Mills and Assemblyman Deddah to see if they can, at least, help to get South Bay communities mentioned on the map in the background. Coun- cilman Anderson suggested that the plea be made directly to the County Board of Supervisors. ~/'COUNCIL CONFERENCE A Council Conference was set for Monday, January 16, 1967, at 3:30 P.M. in the Administrative Conference room to meet with the Library Board to discuss the planning for a new library.
