UNSCHEDULED ITEM NO. 3: <br />MURST FOR COUNCIL ACTION RB: NOISY VEHICLES <br />Dr. Marjorie W. Evans, 14511 De Bell Drive, requested a committee be appointed <br />to study better enforcement of the State Vehicle Code in the area of per- <br />missible noise levels as it pertains to unmuffled or inadequately muffled <br />vehicles. <br />Council discussion ensued with Floor participation by Dr. Wans and Messrs. <br />D. A. Miller, Chairman of Noise Abatement Committee, 13076 Vista del Valle <br />Court, and A. M. Laws, 11210 Hooper Lane. The desirability and possible <br />effectiveness of discussing with the Municipal Court an apparent failure to <br />enforce statuatoxy penalties and thus discourage such violators was con- <br />sidered to be the basic reason that the enforcement agencies were not <br />expending efforts to cite violators. <br />Council concurred that a committee headed by Councilman Grabowski and <br />composed of Councilman Helgesson and a representative of the Noise Abatement <br />Committee investigate this problem and meet with the Court to urge effective <br />punitive action be taken against such offenders. <br />UNSCHEDULED ITEM NO. 4: <br />FINAL REPORT ON 5+ acre dedication of Open Space - Duveneck. <br />Staff reported that the paperwork relative to the grant deed from the <br />Duvenecks for the open space dedication along Adobe Creek had been accomplished <br />and was ready for recordation. (The Council accepted the dedication at the <br />previous meeting.) <br />UNSCHEDULED ITEM NO. 5: <br />REPORT FROM COMMITTEE STUDYING AMENDMENTS TO OUR FIRE ORDINANCE. <br />Due to the heavy agenda, Council concurred that this item be continued to <br />the next meeting. <br />UNSCHEDULED ITEM NO. 6: <br />DISCUSSION OF HOLIDAYS FOR 1971. <br />Council concurred that this item relative to employee holidays and fringe <br />benefits be continued to the December 21, 1970 Agenda. <br />UNSCHEDULED ITEM NO. 7: <br />APPOINTMENT OF A PLANNING CCMMISSIONER. <br />Mayor Benson opened discussion to the Council for nominations for a planning <br />commissioner to fill the unexpired term (which runs until May 4, 1974) <br />formerly held by Councilman Corbett. Council discussion ensued as to how <br />the vote would be made. <br />MOTION, SECONDED AND CARRIED: Councilman Helgesson moved, seconded by <br />Grabowski and carried unanimously, that voting on nominees would be by <br />secret ballot with the selection based on whoever received the most votes, <br />but in the event of a tie, a secret majority vote would determine between <br />those two. <br />-4- <br />
