PASSED AND ADOPTED this 5th day of July, 1962, by the following votes AYES: Councilmen - BROWN, CULBERTSON, DOW and ULLMANN NOES: Councilmen - NONE ABSENT: Councilmen - KATZAKIAN UTILITIES IN City Manager Glaves stated that Wilsey and Ham WESTDALE SUBD. had recommended that utility lines be placed in the streets in new subdivisions, and since the Westdale Subdivision leads itself to this type of installation and since the subdividers are in favor thereof, he recommends that the utili- ties in the Westdale Subdivision be installed in the streets. The City has not formulated a set policy, but it has been the usual policy to obtain easements for utilities at the rear of the lots. If the Council will approve of the placing of the utility lines in the streets in the Westdale Subdivision, a new map of the subdivision will be submitt@d. The subdivider will have more flexibility in planning if the utilities are in the streets. Permitting the installation in the Westdale Subdivision would not be setting a precedent. After discussing the feasibility of such utility installations, it was moved by Councilman Culbertson that the City change its general policy regarding utility installations by permitting the location of water and sewer lines in streets where it is - practicable to do so before the street improve- ments are made unless it is physically more satisfactory to locate utility lines in a rear easement. The motion was seconded by Councilman Brown and carried. SPECS_-, Specifications for concrete pipe were approved CONCRETE and call for bids thereon authorized on motion -PIPE of Councilman Brown, Ullmann second.

Councilman Culbertson moved that the.custody agreement with the State be approved and that the_City Manager be authorized to exe- cute .the agreement. 'The _motioa was seconded " by Councilman Brown and carried. SPECS-= The City Manager presented plans and specifi- LOCKEFORD. ST cations for the installation of a sanitary sewer SEWER"LINE line in Lockeford Street between California and Pleasant.. The Council had approved placing the WATER LINE line in this street at its meeting of May 16, APPROVED 1962. The Engineering Department also recom- mends the installation at this time of a 12" water line on Calif ornia Street to be connected with the existing 14" main in Lockeford Street and an S" water line in Lockeford Street so that the street will not have to be torn up after it has been improved. Councilman 6- M Minutes of July 5, 1962 continued Culbertson moved that the plans and specifi- cations for the sanitary sewer line in Lockeford Street between California Street and Pleasant Avenue be approved and call for bids authorized. His motion was seconded by Councilman Ullmann and carried. City Manager Glaves said that authorization would also be needed for the installation of the water lines, making con- nections, etc., which would be done by City crews and would require some overtime. Council- man Culbertson moved that the water line project on Lockeford Street as outlined by the City Manager be approved. The motion was seconded by Councilman Brown and carried. STORM DRAIN Plans for a proposed storm drain south of the S OF WALNUT Walnut Orchard Tract were presented by the City ORCHARD TR. Yanager who explained that the State is willing to change its proposed 18" freeway drain to 24" provided the City will pay the difference in costs and will permit the State to connect the Freeway drains to the City's existing drain. By enlarging this drain better service to the area will be provided. The plans also call for an 18" connector between the proposed 24" drain and an existing 24" drain and the construction of a 21" drain along the south line of Walnut Orchard:frcm Lloyd Street to Woodrow Street and a 24" drain from Woodrow to the above proposed 24" Freeway drain. The easement f or the line east from Lloyd Street has been secured from Mr. and Mrs. Orrin D. Kettelman, subject to the following conditions: The pipe shall be installed to a sufficient depth so as not to interfere with farming operations and if the line is damaged by farming operations the property owner will not be liable for such damage; the City shall pay $10 per vine for any vines destroyed by the pipe installation; and the City will not install said line during the period of July 15 to November 15. Councilman Brown moved that the City agree to the State's conditions and pay the difference between the cost of 18" and 24" pipe and also install the 18" connector. The motion was seconded by Councilman Culbertson and carried. Councilman Culbertson then moved that the City accept the easement from Mr. and Mrs. Orrin D. Kettelman and that the 21" -and 24" storm sewers from Lloyd Street east be installed. The motion was seconded by Councilman Brown and carried. The above projects are part of the Capital Outlay Program. JOINT POLE The City has received a proposed agreement WITH PG&E with Pacific.Gas and Electric Company for joint ownership of one 75 -foot pole located at Turner Road and Cherokee Lane. The City Manager recom- mended that the agreement be approved and .that he be authorized to sign it on behalf of .the City. On motion of Councilman Culbertson, Ullmann second, the Council accepted the agree- ment with Pacific Gas and Electric Company for joint ownership of one pole at Turner Road and Cherokee Lane at a cost of 8175 to the City and authorized its execution by the City Manager. - 7 - 29.

COUNTY Councilman Culbertson stated that two committees ECONOMIC within the County have been studying the advisa- DEVEL OPMENT bility of establishing a San Joaquin County AUTHORITY Economic Development Authority which would coordinate and increase efforts throughout the County for economic development, including the establishment of industries County -wide.

Councilman Culbertson,who headed the aims and purposes committee on this project, said he would have information on the proposal sent to other members of the Council for their study prior to the next Council meeting.

SACRAMENTO information that had been received from the STREET Engineering and Police Departments regarding their recommendation for parallel parking on the west side of Sacramento Street between Oak and Pine Streets, reviewing data which had been submitted with his June 18, 1962 bulletin to the Council. The percent of total reportable - e- 34o Minutes of July 5, 1962, continued accidents for the past five years on this block of South Sacramento Street is 27/ compared to lla on the similar block on South School Street. A survey of the volume of parking along the block in question shows that only 40% of the stalls are in use at any one time, but that average daily traffic during June 1962 was 5,145• He also presented figures showing comparable traffic on other streets, cited safety factors of angle vs parallel parking, etc. The City Manager also mentioned the view of the Rational Safety Council which recommends the elimination of all diagonal parking in the business area. Mr. Clifford Gatzert, representing Hugh Steacy of Henderson Bros., gave the following points in favor of angle parking: The block being considered is in Parking District No. 1 and angle parking would save loss of meter income since parallel parking reduces parking spaces from 28 to 16; Sacramento Street is 56 feet between curbs from Lodi Avenue to Lookeford Street and therefore is wide enough to take care of angle parking on one side and parallel parking on the other; accident counts are not conclusive as the streets are not comparable because there were more parking spaces on Sacramento Street; angle parking is more convenient, easier and more economical and is preferred by drivers; and angle parking is safer under comparable street conditions. He recommended that the white line down the center of the street be moved three or four feet easterly so that the line would be in the center of the travelled way with parallel parking on the east side and angle parking restored to the west side. Mr. Loren Powell, manager of the San Joaquin County Safety Council, spoke in behalf of the Lodi District Safety Council, stating that angle parking impeded traffic since motorists take twice the length of their car in backing -out, whereas . with parallel.parking less space is needed to maneuver a car and the traffic is not held up. He said that traffic engineering manuals state that parallel parking should be used on any street which is less than 70 feet in width. Where angle parking is permitted on narrower streets, the majority of users suffer delay for the few who park, and traffic hazards are greater According to Mr. Powell, the State Division of Highways is also opposed to angle parking. He said it was the intent of the Lodi District Safety Council to request the Council to con- sider the elimination of all angle parking in the business area. The Council discussed at length the amount of traffic and parking on the street, the width of the street and the footage requirements for angle parking, the desires of the businessmen in this area and their customers, etc., questioning Mr. Gatzert, Mr. Powell and Mr. Glaves concerning the inf ormation given. Councilman Culbertson then moved that the Council revert to diagonal parking on the west side of Sacramento Street between Pine and Oak Streets until such time as the Council considers that changing the entire length of Sacramento Street to parallel parking on both sides is warranted. The motion was seconded by Vice -Mayor Dow, who felt that he did not understand the situation sufficiently at the time their original decision - 9 - 301 Minutes of July 5, 1962 continued was made and therefore had acted hastily. He felt that the information presented at this time led to a different conclusion. The City Manager said that the administration had suf- ficient data to make a recommendation at this time to have parallel parking for the entire street. Councilman Culbertson said that the width of Sacramento Street was a consideration in allowing diagonal parking on one side of the street. -He felt that he had acted hastily in the first instance -as he had thought that most of the merchants in this block had been con- tacted and were agreeable to -the change. Councilman Ullmann suggested that parallel parking be tried out for another month or two. He said that he had talked to the merchants in this block and most of them were satisfied with the parallel parking. Vice -Mayor Dow said that the Council should make a decision since diagonal parking is still permitted in this block under the traffic ordinance. Mr. Powell urged the Council to give credence to the data submitted by the -Police and Engineering departments. Mr. Gordon Nichols, Director of the Lodi District Safety Council, said the petitioners for diagonal parking should be interested enough to be present at this meeting. Mr. Jacob Ferguson, 209 South Sacramento Street, said all the parking they could get was needed in the block between Walnut and Lodi Avenue. Councilman Culbertson said that he felt the new evidence presented -warranted the change back to diagonal parking, saying it was not a major street so should serve the people in the area, but that if the accident rate becomes critical, parking on the street should be reconsidered. He felt that if the white- line were moved a 'few feet easterly, hazards would be eliminated. Councilman Brown agreed to some extent that the Council had made a_hasty decision, but he'said that he had checked the perking along this block for several days and that parking was always available. He had also contacted the business men in this block and all but two like -parallel parking. A vote was then taken on the motion, as follows: AYES: Councilmen - CULBERTSOtI, DOW and ULLMANN NOES:- Cogncilmen - BROWN ABSENT: Councilmen - KATZAKIAN City. Manager Glaves asked the Council how soon -they would want the change made and he was told to use his best"judgment.• He was also instructed not to have the white line in the middle of the street changed until the Engineering Department made a recommendation thereon. The City Council then adjourned on motion of Councilman Brown, Culbertson second. x�� ATTEST- BEATrtll Gi4i i, City Clerk - 10 -
