Mayor Sizemore announced the public hearing on assessments for Horne Road Unit I
Street Improvements, scheduled for 4:00 p.m. He explained the procedure to be followed, and
asked that it be noted that a quorum of the Council and the required Charter officers were
present to conduct a valid hearing.
City Manager Townsend explained the purpose of the hearing was to allow those
interested paoperty owners an opportunity to express themselves regarding the specifications
` of the project and to make comments as to the assessments against their individual properties
which will provide a framework for levying the assessments. He stated Director of Engineering
Services will present the plans and specifications, and that Assistant City Attorney Michael
May will conduct the hearing.
Mr. May stated the purpose of this hearing is to comply with the statutes regarding
paving assessments; that testimony will be heard from the Director of Engineering Services,
and evaluation testimony from a real estate appraiser to .substantiate the assessments which appear
on the assessment roll, and that this hearing is to form a basis on which the Council, acting as a
Minutes

Page 15
legislative body, would determine or establish the assessments on the abutting
properties.
Director of Engineering Services James K. Lontos was interrogated as to his
occupation, time of residence in the City, and formal qualifications and familiarity
with the subject project. He presented the plans and specifications, explained the
nature and extent of the proposed improvements, and pointed out the location on the
map, stating the basic limits of the project are: (1) Horne Road, from the west
property line of Lot 1 -A, Block 1, Laguna Acres to the west right -of -way line of
McArthur Street, and (2) Columbia Street, from the south right -of -way line of Horne
Road to the north right -of -way line of Lolita Street. He explained that the construc-
tion will be done in two phases, the first beginning at Columbia to McArthur; that
the construction is to be according to standard specifications, consisting of curb
and gutter, sidewalk, storm sewer improvements and driveways where needed and requested
by the property owners. He explained that the assessment rates have been determined
in accordance with the City's policy and by using the low bid submitted by Burtex
Constructors and by applying these unit prices to the front footage of the abutting
property; that the total contract price as shown on the preliminary assessment roll
is $270,328.85; total estimated assessments, $74,807.88, and total cost of City's
portion, $195,520.97. Mr. Lontos explained options whereby property owners may pay
the assessments, and explained that no bills will be submitted for approximately 30
days after the project is finished.
Mr. Harold Carr testified as to his identity as a real estate appraiser,
time of residence in the City, occupation, experience as an appraiser of all types
of real estate, residential, commercial, vacant and rural, his present occupation,
and familiarity with the subject area and project. He described the general area,
and stated there were no irregularly shaped lots of any significance. He stated he
had examined each parcel of land and in his opinion, all the properties appearing on
the preliminary assessment roll would be enhanced in value as a result of the improve-
ments at least to the extent of the assessment, with the exception of Items #4 and
#5, Lots l and 2, Lyles Subdivision, in the name of Harry Weisman, et al. Mr. Carr
explained that these properties are zoned "R -1B" at the present time, and if assessed
as zoned, it is his opinion that the assessment of $14.31 per L.F. for Curb and gutter
and pavement would not be a valid assessment, and should only apply to the area
Minutes

presently zoned "B -1 ". Mr. Carr stated if the property were "deed restricted for
20 years to remain for residential use, this would affect his opinion of enhancement
as a result of the improvements, and that if it were rezoned for business at the
present time, then it would be his opinion that it would be enhanced in the amount of
the assessment. He stated it is very valuable property and in his opinion, it will
eventually be used for something other than residential. Mr. Carr pointed out that
there is some question as to how much of the property is presently zoned for business.
Mr. Richard Hatch, attorney representing the Harry Weisman properties,
appeared and stated there is some confusion as to how much of the property is
actually zoned for business, but that his client never requested that any of it be
zoned for business, but was requested by the City; that they had applied for business
zoning on the corner lot, but this was rejected by the Planning Commission and was
later withdrawn before it came before the Council. He stated his client would like
to have the entire area restricted to single - family uses and pay the lower rates,
and would be willing to execute instruments to that effect, will execute instruments
to the effect that they will pay the higher rate or the difference between $4.75
and $14.31 plus interest, if they are successful in getting the property zoned for
a higher use, and are willing to commit the entire tract.
No one else appeared to be heard in connection with the proposed street
improvements.
Motion by Gonzales, seconded by Branch and passed, that the hearing be
closed, and that the assessments for the foregoing street improvements, be taken
under advisement.
and Teel Amendments, Article 25 of the Zoning Ordinance.
City MZanager Townsend presented Application #373 -1, Albert P. Perez, for
change of zoning from " =,1B" one-family Dwelling District and a Special Permit to
"A -1" Apartment House District, on Lot_ 23, Block 3, Molina #1 Subdivision, located
south of Horne Road on the west side of Angela Street in the 4100 Block. The request
was heard by the Planning Commission March 6, 1973, and forwarded to the Council with
the recommendation that it be approved because apartments would be an improvement
to this neighborhood and, also, the neighbors are in favor of there nest. The Staff's
opinion was that the requested change would constitute spot zoning and an�'ntrusion
of multiple - family development into this area.
