PUBLIC HEARING - ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE 1313 -
FROM OBSTRUCTING SIDEWALKS
City Attorney reviewed his memo of October 21 in which he recommended
council hold a public hearing and take ac!ion. Recently Police
Department has issued citations for persons uho unnecessarily block
sidewalks and businesses. However, they have found they nust issue
citations for riding bicycles or other violations because the city
does not have a clear ordinance regarding persons obstructing the
sidewalk. 0ur code addresses placing merchandise on sidewalks but
does not deal with people. The Penal Code does cover thi.s subject'
but courts have held that cities can adopt their oun ordinance. This
would make it an infraction citation rather than a misdemeanor.
Mayor Mangini opened the public hearing.

PROPOSED UNDERGROUND CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS
Director of Pub1ic Works reviewed his memo of December 18 in which he
recommended council proceed with establishing underground districts
for Donnelly Avenue and Airport Boulevard to ensure the fu11 use of
underground alLocations prior to 1990. The League of California
Cities and PG&E have reached agreement on a long-term allocation plan
for replacement of overhead electrical to underground facilities. A
key to this plan is the reallocation program whereby if uncommitted
funds exceed our 1989 aLlocation, these funds will be reallocated to
agencies with active underground programs. In order that we not lose
funds, the city should develop a five-year plan which ttover programs"
our allocation through 1990.In previous years' council had appointed
an underground comrnittee which reconmended Donnelly Avenue and
Californla Drive. California Drive has been completed. He
recommended Donnel"1y be included and Airport Boulevard be added Eo the
five year plan. If council approves this proposal , legislation will
be drafted for council approval ,
