said the exhibit would be in the Council Chambers from September 15,
through September 24, and copies could be ordered from samples displayed.
TENTATIVE TRACT 31437, WALTER STORM, JOHNS CANYON ROAD 526
Mayor pro tem Crocker opened discussion of Tentative Tract 31437,
held from the meeting of August 23.
Councilman Heinsheimer said he had been advised that the requirement
for 4 x 4" concrete filled easement markers 54" high would be discussed
by the Board of Directors at their meeting on September 16, and he sug-
gested that further consideration of the tract be deferred until after
that date, since the requirement had become part of the Planning Advi-
sor`s Report at the direction of the Planning Commission.
Mr. Forrest Riegel, Chairman of the Planning Commission, asked
what would happen if the Board of Directors waived the requirement,
and the Planning Commission wished to retain it. Councilman Heinsheimer
said he did not consider it a problem if the City requires conditions in
addition to those imposed by the Board of Directors, but wished to
avoid. `overruling conditions. ,imposed '.byythauBoardd. Mr.6 .Ri&ggll said_.it_
is the wish of the Planning Commission to have all conditions of approval
imposed by any agency reviewing the subdivision shown on the tentative
map when it is presented to the City Council.
Councilman Pernell said he wished to avoid delay to the subdivider,
who will be required to comply with requirements imposed as a condition
of approval, and since monuments are required by Section 9.02 of Ordi-
nance No. 67, the question is an internal one of whether markers shall
comply with standards set by the Board of Directors or the City. He
recommended that consideration of the map proceed, with clarification
of the specification for markers provided the subdivider at a later
date. Mayor pro tem Crocker said that Councilman Heinsheimer's objection
to the monuments required by the Board of Direcotrs is based on safety,
and he thought the matter of specifications for markers should be re-
solved before approval of the tentative map.
Mr. Roger Meurer, engineer for Mr. Storm, advised the Council that
the subdivider is willing to meet any conditions imposed, and if the
-2-
I.
September 13, 1976
more stringent requirements presently required by the Board of Directors
remain, the requirement could subsequently be waived at a later date if
the Board of Directors or City Council so wishes. However, if the re-
quirements were waived at this time, and more stringent conditions were
imposed later, the subdivider could object.
Councilwoman Swanson asked Mr. Riegel to explain why the Planning
Commission wished to adopt the requirement for markers imposed by the
Board of Directors, rather than a monument of iron pipe, 2" outside
diameter, not less than 2 1/2 feet in length, set at least 2 feet into
the ground, required by the Subdivision Ordinance. Mr. Riegel said that
trail easements had been lost in past subdivision because of inadequate
trail easement marking, and the Board of Directors had adopted their,
regulation at the request of Caballeros. Further, he said the markers
are the same height as a fence. Mayor pro tem Crocker asked the City
Attorney to comment on the requirements of the Board and Council for
markers.
Mr. Kinley explained that each of the bodies is empowered to make
specific requirements of subdivisions as a condition of approval, but
p it was his recommendation, when asked for advice, that both bodies
attempt to adopt requirements which are similar or compatible. Since
the Board of Directors has asked him to give an opinion on easement
markers at their next meeting, following Councilman Heinsheimer's
concern about a possible safety hazard, it is his intention to recom-
mend that the Board revise their requirement for markers, and adopt a
requirement for markers similar to the monuments required by the City's
subdivision ordinance, since the subdivider is currently required to
provide two sets of monuments, unless the Council directs that the
Association's requirement for 54" high markers be waived. Mr. Kinley
said he had discussed the matter of monuments with three engineering
firms, and all had concurred that they should be flush with the ground,
especially in communities like Rolling Hills because of horse trails,
and because of high weeds in some areas. Based on those opinions, Mr.
Kinley said he had put together recommended specifications to be pre-
sented to the Board of Directors.
The Mayor pro tem asked that the Council members state whether
they wished to proceed with consideration of the subdivision, Council
members Pernell and'Swanson_said'they_-wi�hed to continue discussion;
Councilman Heinsheimer said he wished to have further discussion de-
ferred until after the meeting of the Board of Directors. Mayor pro
tem Crocker asked the Manager whether the Board would object if the
Council deleted the requirement which they had imposed. The Manager
said the Board had ordered that no markers be installed until they
have had an opportunity to reconsider the requirement. The Mayor pro
tem thereafter directed that consideration of the subdivision proceed.
Councilman Pernell said he was not at the last meeting when the
tentative tract was considered, and he asked whether he could vote
without listening to the full discussion as recorded. The Attorney
said the action of the Council was reported in the minutes, and Coun-
cilman Pernell could vote on the matter.
Mr. Meurer presented road profiles showing various widths of
roadways and graded trails as follows: Case A, which depicts the
existing Johns Canyon Road and shows 17' of paving, 1' berm on the
down -hill side, very little graded shoulder on either side, with the
one on the downhill side varying from a maximum 6 - 8' width to only
a few feet in some places. Case B is the theoretical standard Rolling
Hills Road, with 30' of paving overall, with 24' of driving lanes, 3'
rolled berms on either side, with an additional 10' graded on either
side at the request of the Planning Commission for most of the road,
with approval of reduction of a portion of the grading.on the down
hill side to 3', while�retaining'the full 10-' on the uphill side.
-3-
September 13, 1976
Case C would be a compromise between the existing Johns Canyon Road and
the standard Rolling Hills road, with 24' of paving; 10' dfive lanes
and 2' rolled berm on either side, 10' horse trail on the uphill side,
and a 3' minimum trail on the downhill side, with a scalloped effect as
the terrain permits, rather than a uniform 3' stripe Case D is what was
approved for Blackwater Canyon Road as an improvement, as the existing
road is similar to .johns Canyon Road, Blackwater Canyon Road will be
widened to 20' of paving, with 9' driving lanes, and 1' rolled berm on
either side. The trail on the uphill side will be approximately 3'
wide instead of 10', and on the downhill side will have a 3' scalloped
effect trail, as the terrain permits. Case E was presented without
specifications, for discussion of possible alternatives proposed by the
Council.
Councilman Heinsheimer asked Mr. Meurer whether Buggy Whip Drive
conforms to Case Be Mr. Meurer said the existing road does, and the
extension of Buggy Whip will exceed the width of Case B.
Mayor pro tem Crocker said specific recommendations for road width
were made in the Seismic Safety and Safety Elements of the General Plan,
and he would be concerned about approving roads of less than the recom-
mended width.
Councilman Pernell said the existing portion of Johns Canyon Road
would not be.sufficient to carry the extra load of traffic which will
result from development of the property and construction of 11 additional
homes, and Councilman Crocker agreed, especially in the case of an emer-
gency, or when residents entertain. Further, Councilman Crocker said the
length of the proposed road exceeds the length recommended by the Plan-
ning Advisor. Mrs. Clifton explained that the Planning Advisor had
brought a special map before the Planning Commission on June 15, 1976
based on the recommendation in the staff report. Following review, the
Planning Commission decided to accept the recommendations of the devel-
oper's engineer, rather than the recommendations of the Planning Advisor.
Mr. Riegel was asked to comment, and he advised that the Planning Com-
mission considered the intersection of the new road with the exsiting
Johns Canyon Road, and required that the cul de sac at the terminus be
increased from 25' to 37' to accommodate school buses and emergency
equipment, but did not give special attention to the length or width of
the road, since most streets in Rolling Hills end in cul de sacs. The
Mayor pro tem thereafter closed the public heating on the tract.
In discussing the proposed road, Councilman Pernell said he favored
Case Co Councilman Heinsheimer said he preferred Case A, and feels that
a narrow road contributes to safety by controlling speed; however, he
would be agreeable to approving Case Ce Councilwoman Swanson said she
would prefer Case Ce Mayor pro tem Crocker said he is concerned about
the Council's approval of a sub -standard road, as there is a definite
need for good access for emergency equipment in that area.
The City Attorney advised that if the Council decides to approve a
substandard road, they should make findings to support their decision.
Mr. Kinley recommended that Case B be approved.
Mr. Meurer was asked to comment on drainage, and he said water on
the new road would flow downhill 1200 feet, and would flow into a catch
basin in the cul de sac, and then to the canyon.
Councilman Pernell asked how many Case B roads are in Rolling Hills,
and the Manager said Buggy Whip, Roadrunner, Chestnut 'Lane and Wagon Lane
meet the criteria:. of Case Bo Councilman Pernell said he did not think
the new road should be 30' if the old Johns Canyon Road is going to re-
main at 17', and he suggested that the new road be modified to satisfac-
torily service 11 new homes. Mr. Kinley said the City inherited Johns
Canyon Road and did not build it. He advised the Council that the City
-4-
C
September 13, 1976
would be liable for damages resulting from approving a sub -standard road.
Councilman Pernell said the Council could consider Case B with 2'
berms rather than 3' berms. Councilwoman Swanson said Case C with 3'
berms could also be considered. The Manager said she did not consider
a 2' berm adequate to carry the amount of water which will have to be
carried to the cul de sac. Mr. Meurer explained that the road will un-
dulate in a downhill course, although there is not a 'straight downhill
course, at no time does the course change from a downhill flow.
Councilman Pernell said that in view of the Council's concern about
traffic safety and water diversion, it might be feasible to have turn-
outs on the road for parking, passing, etc., and he asked Mr. Meurer to
comment. Mr. Meurer said that large properties should provide off street
p'al
tking, so that should not be a consideration. Since Case B has been
recommended by the Planning Advisor, and the subdivider is willing to
comply, Mr. Meurer said he would recommend that Case B be approved.
GC
The Mayor pro tem asked whether the Planning Commission had con -
c -t'. sidered the steepness of the road, and whether a variance had been
'°3 granted under Section 6008, Street Grades, of the subdivision ordinance
''to permit the grade of the road as shown. The Manager said the grade
''was not discussed.
Councilwoman Swanson moved that the tentative tract be returned
to the Planning Commission. The motion was seconded by Councilman
Pernell and carried by the following roll call vote:
AYES- Councilmembers Heinsheimer, Pernell, Swanson
Mayor pro tem Crocker
NOES- None

ADDRESS CLARIFICATION, BARRY BECKER, 1 EUCALYPTUS LANE 1369
A rough sketch map of properties at #1 Eucalyptus Lane and #2
Eucalyptus Lane was presented to the Council.
The Manager reported that when the property at 1 Eucalyptus Lane
was purchased by Mr. and Mrs. Barry Becker, there was a driveway to
the residence from Eucalyptus Lane, as well as one from Portuguese Bend
Road, When a corral was built and fencing installed along Eucalyptus
Lane, the driveway to Eucalyptus Lane was removed, and the Beckers use
the driveway from Portuguese Bend Road for ingress and egress. The
street address was not changed, and the Beckers have a mailbox and
residence sign, both marked #1 Eucalyptus Lane, located on Portuguese
Bend Road. Mrs. Clifton recommended that a Portuguese Bend Road
address be assigned, since there is no access to the property from
Eucalyptus Road, and the improper markings could cause confusion, es-
pecially in an emergency. Further, she said sufficient numbers are
available to provide a consecutive address without disturbing other
properties.
Councilwoman Swanson said she would oppose the recommendation,
since changing the address from Eucalyptus Lane to Portuguese Bend
Road would result in having the barn, which is now in a legal side
yard location, in the area to be designated as the front yard, and
therefore in violation of Ordinance No. 33, and she suggested that
Mr. Becker be asked to return the property to the former condition,
with access from Eucalyptus Lane.
Councilman Pernell moved that the Manager's recommendation be
,accepted, and that Mr. Becker be advised that his correct address is

DRIVEWAY RELOCATION REQUEST, CURTISS SCARRITT, 2 EUCALYPTUS LANE 1404
The Manager reported that Mr. and Mrs. Curtiss Scarritt recently
purchased property at 2 Eucalyptus Lane, and have requested permission
to relocate their driveway to run parallel with Eucalyptus Lane and
exit on Portuguese Bend Road. Presently there is a double driveway to
the residence from Eucalyptus Lane, and Mrs. Scarritt advised .that they
object to taking access from a location which faces the corral on the
Becker property.
Councilman Pernell moved that the request be referred to the Plan-
ning Commission. The motion died because of lack of a second.

Traffic Commission for review and recommendation. The motion was

DRIVEWAY LOCATION AND ADDRESS CLARIFICATION, KENNETH DENNIS
1460
Mrs. Clifton advised that when property in the Eastfield Gate
area was subdivided twelve years ago, -it was suggested that access to
the new lots be taken from Eastfield Drive. When Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth
Dennis submitted plans for a residence on Lot 2 -EG, a Hummingbird Lane
address was assigned, because of lack of sufficient numbers for East-
field Drive. A resident on Hummingbird Lane refused to grant easement
over his property for access, and Mr. and Mrs. Dennis take access from
Eastfield Drive. The Manager expressed her concern about confusion
which might result, especlally'in:anreYnergency situation, because..the
mailbox, which is located on Eastfield Drive, has a Hummingbird Lane -
address on it, although access is-fromiEa$bfield Drive. ' 'I
Councilwoman Swanson said she had reviewed the files and made a
field trip to the site, and had determined that all mailboxes for
Hummingbird Lane are located on Eastfield Drive. The item was removed
from the agenda.
LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES 1491
In a letter dated August 19, 1976 from the League of California
Cities, the Council was asked to designate a voting representative and
an alternate for the Annual League Conference in San Diego October 17-
20.
Councilwoman Swanson said she is planning to attend, and Council-
man Pernell said he may attend. The Mayor designated Councilwoman
Swanson voting delegate, and Councilman Pernell alternate voting dele-
gate, and asked that the League of California Cities be notified.

SOUTH BAY CITIES ASSOCIATION 1502
A letter from Paul Peppard, President of the South Bay Cities
Association, was presented to the Council advising that at the next
meeting the Association will take action to have a feasibility study
conducted regarding the formation of a South Bay County. A letter from
the City of Hermosa Beach supporting a new South Bay County was attached.
Following discussion, Councilman'Heinsheimer moved that the
Council's representative to the South Bay Cities Association be instruc-
ted to vote against a feasibility study, and to suggest that an expendi-
ture of funds for that purpose at this time is not in the best interest
of the cities involved. The motion was seconded by Councilwoman Swanson

The Mayor so ordered.

1832
Application for permission to keep more than three dogs under
ARTICLE XIII, Ordinance No. 143, by Mr. Loren F. Weddle, 74 Saddleback
Road, was presented to the Council. The Manager reported that no
communication had been received in opposition to the request from any
of Mr. Weddle's neighbors.
The applicant stated that he is the owner of six dogs, none of
which has been neutered, and that all dogs were in his possession
prior to August 14, 1975. Further, he stated that they are at least
