HEARINGS:
6.v Continued from the last regular meeting of the City Council was the matter concerning the Cost
of Construction of Street Improvements in front of 57 Garden Road, Alameda, as reported by the
Superintendent of Streets, in the amount of $1,664.65 - and any objections or protests thereto -
which was called up at this time for Hearing.
The Clerk stated Mrs. G. Stanger, owner of the designated premises, who resides in Kenwood, had
been notified that this was the time and place for said continued Hearing and that the Council
would proceed therewith.
Upon request, Mr. Cunningham stated the legal issue was to hear and pass upon the report of the
Superintendent of Streets and objections or protests, if any, thereto - and to determine whether
or not such report should be confirmed, or whether it should be revised, corrected or modified and
confirmed.
The action required under State law which governs this proceeding would be a motion confirming the
City Engineer's Report relative to the cost of the public improvements at said address and overrul-
ing any protests thereto.
Upon the call for proponents in this matter, there was no response. The President then called for
any opponents to the question and Mrs. G. Stanger, 110 Green Street, Kenwood, California, addressed
the Council in opposition to the manner in which the street improvements had been handled. She
pointed out she had been quoted a certain figure for her share of the cost of these improvements -
which had later been increased due to unexpected problems. Mrs. Stanger felt, however, this was
the contractor's responsibility. She claimed that her fence had been cut down without her having
been given notification, and it had cost $237. for the replacement thereof. Mrs. Stanger also
contended her attorney, Mr. Glenn Spencer, had been authorized by her to take care of everything for
her - but he had not been notified of any of the several steps in the process of this street improve-
ment. She protested against the sum charged - $1,664.65 - and stated she was not going to pay it.
She said a check in the amount of $1,119.56, the original estimate of her cost of the project, was
on deposit in the First Western Bank.
Mrs. Stanger claimed that she had not received any of the several notices which had been sent to
her as part of the procedure in this matter. She alleged that the project had been poorly handled
and the actual construction was bad.
City Engineer Hanna was then called upon to review the entire history of this case and he offered
explanations of the procedures required as the project progressed.
There being no further speakers in this matter, the President declared the Hearing closed.
After some discussion for further clarification, Councilman McCall moved the Council confirm the
report of the Superintendent of Streets and the cost of the street improvements in front of 57 Garden
Road in the amount of $1,064.65 be approved and the protests thereto be overruled. The motion was
seconded by Councilman Rose and carried on the following roll call vote. Ayes: Five. Noes: 0oue,
Absent: None.
REPORTS OF OFFICERS, BOARDS, ETCETERA:
7.' From the Mayor, City Manager and City Auditor, submitting their report on the Count of Money held

Upon request, City Attorney Cunningham stated tbot, for years, the City had been familiar with the

the City`s use of tidelands had complied qith said Statute. He stated the City was not granting, cou-
veyin&, giving or aliening any City-owned tide lands in the action proposed by the Ordinance before
the Council - and it could not, under tbe Constitution. The City was presently acting in conformity
with the law.

Inc., and the "John Does" of the City of Alameda, and she felt further inve stigation should be made

of the "silting" condition in the channel and area of San Leandro Bay, and the water depth affected
thereby.' Be stated his organization was extremely desirous of being protected in this development.
He proposed that Shore Line Properties, Inc., guarantee that th e cha nnel would be completed and in
existence at the completion of its dredge and fill operatino. He re
gueated the City Council to
require an u8reemeut between said Company and the City to assure that proper conditions would prevail
for the purposes of the Yacht Club at the conclusion of tbe project, |
Mr. James B. Davis, Attorney for 36nre Line Properties, Inc., spoke on the subject and stated he
had discussed the situation with Mr. William Gorman of the Aeolian Yacht Club and his client. He
pointed out that Shore Line Properties, Inc., was willing to eoter into a separate agreement with
the City in which a map would be an exhibit on which soundings could be shown of the area immediately
around the Bay Farm Island Bridge and the Company would agree to remove any silt which said Company
might cause to be deposited through its dredging operatioum.
The discussion went on in detail concerning the actual amount of material which would be dredged from
one Borrow Area or the other - the distance in width and length of the dredging out of the channel

San Francisco Bay Association".
Mr. Calvin Jones of Jones, Thenn & Associates, Civil Engineers, also explained certain technical and
