92-540 Appeal of a Planning Board partial approval of Variance, V-
91-327, for a porch and two-story addition to single-family
residence at 2508 Crist Street. Applicant: Mariusz Lewandowski;
Appellant: Councilmember Camicia. [Continued from May 19, 1992],
and
Resolution No. 12296 "Granting the Appeal of Variance V-91-327, at
2508 Crist Street.
Christopher Kerosky, Alameda, noted changes Lewandowski agreed to
make in response to Council's request that both sides compromise;
he [Kerosky] suggested a garage in basement and a large room above.
Councilmember Lucas raised questions about the grade to the garage.
The Public Works Director explained concerns regarding the drop to
the garage that may not be workable.
Councilmember Lucas discussed the number of bedrooms in the house,
and possible parking problems.
The City Manager explained background of the matter, and that Mr.
Lewandowski has been consistently informed since October 1991, that
the bulk of the building is too great for the lot.
Mr. Lewandowski described interaction with staff; and that he would
not have started the project if it were not considered possible.
Councilman Arnerich stated proposed reduced square footage is 2100
square feet; and discussed use of garage area with Mr. Lewandowski.
Denise Shelton, Alameda, stated Mr. Lewandowski is reasonable,
sensitive, and interested in making a workable plan agreeable to
neighbors; and does not consider parking in the neighborhood a
problem.
Charles Heinz, Alameda, stated Mr. Lewandowski is looking to turn
a profit while neighbors are planning to stay in the neighborhood;
and believes the proposed house is too big for the property.
Councilmember Camicia noted the proposed changes: reducing height
and placing garage under living space; and requested Mr. Heinz's
reaction if Council called for no second story.
Mr. Heinz stated that would be agreeable to him but was tried a
month ago.
July 21, 1992
Matt Kilroy, Alameda, submitted photographs to Council to view
height and other considerations; stated "we" would agree to a
Variance allowing a structure no larger than our roofline on the
garages.
Councilmember Camicia stated if all opponents agree with Messrs.
Heinz and Kilroy, he would like to work out a Condition where Mr.
Kerosky's proposal is accepted with assumption that the parking
will work; if it does not, Council would approve Appeal but the
proposed living space [over garage] would contain only a garage.
Councilmember Lucas discussed off-street parking with Mr. Kilroy
who stated one off-street parking space is important.
Christine Loors, Alameda, stated parking is an issue; supports the
two immediately-impacted neighbors; believes that, without the
compromise, the project is too large for the property.
Tena Kilroy, Alameda, requested Council deny Appeal but in the
alternative, grant the compromise already drafted and before
Council.
Tako Heinz, Alameda, submitted a letter his mother sent for
Council's perusal [opposing addition to 2508 Crist Street which
would decrease the sunshine and privacy to her rear yard].
The Planning Director explained the background of the Appeal.
Councilman Arnerich stated the angle of the driveway would be
roughly 37%-38% and he has a problem with that; he could agree to
a two-story home with 1500-1600 square feet, but the proposal for
2300 square foot project is too large for the size of the lot.
The Planning Director reviewed the proposal, believes the roof
would be higher than the existing garage.
Council and staff discusssed alternatives.
Councilmember Roth stated he could not support proposed plan; many
people have 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, dining and living rooms in 1300 to
1500 square feet; however, he has no problem with compromise,
believes off-street parking should be provided and Building Codes
must be met.
Councilmember Camicia moved to uphold the Appeal of Planning Board
partial approval of Variance 91-327, with Condition that the plans
be modified to reduce square footage consistent with suggestion of
Mr. Kerosky of eliminating the second story on the west side. If
the below grade parking is not feasible, then the one-story
described by Mr. Kerosky as living room or bedroom would be
approved as a garage. Councilmember Lucas seconded the motion.
Councilmember Roth discussed Code requirements regarding
translucent windows, transom openings, reconfiguration of floor
July 21, 1992
plans to ensure sleeping rooms provide windows enabling emergency
escape or rescue.
Councilmember Camicia stated all code requirements must be met.
The motion was carried by the following voice vote: Ayes:
Councilmembers Camicia, Lucas, Roth and President Withrow - 4.
Noes: Councilman Arnerich - 1. Absent: None.
92-541 Report from Chair, Economic Development Commission,
requesting an attendance policy appeal procedure.
Robert Wood, Vice-Chair, Economic Development Commission (EDC),
stated EDC has modified rules and procedures for attendance
standards to comply with Council policy; and is present to
reiterate report by Helen Sause, Chair, EDC, requesting Commission
have ability to retain Appeal procedure and give flexibility to
consider special circumstances because members work on
subcommittees, and special meetings.
Councilmember Camicia moved acceptance. Councilman Arnerich
seconded the motion which carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
92-542 Report from President, Planning Board, suggesting the
acquisition of the USS Missouri and USS Midway for Naval Museum.
Stan Shane, Alameda, stated he believes [proposed] museum is a poor
idea, and the idea should be abandoned before any funds are spent.
Clyde Serda, Alameda, addressed cost of restoring and maintaining
vessels and believes proposal is a bad idea.
John Barni, Sr., Alameda, stated he agrees with the two previous
speakers.
President Withrow stated he does not propose public funds be spent
on such a venture; the only way to proceed would be to encourage
private ventures.
Councilmember Camicia commented on possibility of Navy League
funding museum and City providing a location.
Mr. Serda stated he was told dredging would be required in order to
bring the U.S.S. Missouri to the Alameda Naval Air Station.
Councilmember Roth stated he believes the U.S.S. Midway is more
appropriate for Alameda than the U.S.S Missouri.
Councilman Arnerich stated many questions need to be answered
regarding maintenance and cost of bringing in a ship.
President Withrow stated the question is whether Council should
support the idea for a private venture to raise capital and
maintenance funds to bring [a ship] in and berth it in Alameda.
July 21, 1992
2 j.
Councilman Arnerich stated there are too many questions involved,
he cannot see staff spending any time on this matter and he will
not support it.
Councilmember Camicia moved acceptance of report, and staff
forward it to the Navy League. Councilmember Roth seconded the
motion which carried by the following voice vote: Ayes:
Councilmembers Camicia, Lucas, Roth and President Withrow - 4.
Noes: Councilman Arnerich - 1. Absent: None.
92-543 Report from City Manager transmitting summary of Boards'
Commissions' and Committees' comments on possible reduced meeting
schedule and consolidation.
The City Manager noted some commissions believe they could meet on
a less-frequent basis, and possibly some duties between boards and
commissions can be combined.
Councilmember Roth accepted the report. Councilmember Lucas
seconded the motion which carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
92-544 Report from Acting City Attorney and City Clerk on
establishing policy for ballot measure Arguments. (Councilmember
Camicia)
Councilmember Camicia moved acceptance of communication and to
continue current procedure. Councilman Arnerich seconded the
motion.
Councilmember Roth questioned why assigning Councilmember(s) to
write an Argument and bringing it back to a meeting would be
difficult; and he sees no [Brown Act] violation.
The Acting City Attorney stated no violation would occur but
procedure may hinder meeting Election Code deadlines.
Councilmember Roth stated if a Councilmember is delegated by
Council to write an Argument, Council should approve it.
Councilmember Camicia stated he believes, when a Councilmember
writes a ballot argument, prior to filing it with the City Clerk,
it should be submitted to the City Attorney to make sure it covers
[the issue], is accurate, reflects what Council wants and meets all
legal requirements.
President Withrow stated Councilmember Roth is saying the Argument
should come back to Council, which would presuppose the Attorney
has seen it.
Councilman Arnerich stated that is exactly what we did when we
[Authors: Arnerich, Aragon, D. Sherratt, Corica, Janvier] drafted
[Argument] for the parks Measure; we met with the City Attorney and
various interested parties in the City.
July 21, 1992
President Withrow stated the Argument did not come back to Council
and that is what Councilmember Roth is interested in.
Councilmember Lucas stated Council should decide on a case by case
basis; perhaps the City Clerk or City Attorney can bring to
Council's attention, raise the question when Council decides on a
ballot measure, who will write the Argument, who will approve it.
President Withrow stated he does not see the complexity; if a
Councilmember is directed to write an Argument, it can
automatically come back.
The City Clerk suggested that when a Councilmember is requested to
sign the "Statement That Argument is True and Correct," and is
unhappy with the Argument, it would be automatically brought to
Council for review.
President Withrow stated that has merit except the review should be
in a session where Council discusses as a group observed by the
public; whatever is necessary can be done to meet the deadline.
The Acting City Attorney stated the only problems are deadlines,
and also allowing opponents to see the Argument before they might
normally need to.
The City Clerk stated she conducted a more in-depth survey of local
communities within the last couple of days, and was unable to find
one community or Council which had Arguments brought back at a
Council Meeting for review.
President Withrow stated Alameda prides itself on being unique.
The City Clerk stated one concern regarding the City Attorney's
Office participating in the review of ballot arguments is, as she
understands, the Office should only concern itself with impartial
analyses; if Council wants someone, other than Council, to review
an Argument prior to open session, perhaps the City Manager or
someone on staff, which is very common [practice], could assist.
President Withrow noted the cost to the City when Council went to
court to rectify problems associated with an Argument submitted and
cleared after the fact.
Councilmember Camicia stated he believes the City Clerk is correct;
if in the future Council has an initiative placed on the ballot,
Council designates someone to write Argument, (the writer] would
then try and seek the [Councilmembers1] signatures, if that does
not work out, it needs to be reread; at least that offers some
safeguard.
President Withrow stated that provides some safeguard but, because
of Brown Act, ideas could not be communicated regarding concerns.
Councilmember Camicia stated he does not know how Council can get
July 21® 1992
over that hump and not offer the opposition an early look at
Council's ballot argument.
In response to Councilman Arnerich, Council reviewed procedure for
submitting Arguments for Council review.
Councilmember Camicia amended his motion to move staff report back
with a list of options along the lines of what was discussed, from
which Council could then choose.
President Withrow stated he
within thirty days.
Councilmember Lucas seconded
voice vote - 5.
would like [the options] brought back
the motion, which carried by unanimous
92-545 Report from Finance Director transmitting analysis of
selected revenue alternatives presented by the Finance Committee.
Councilmember Roth stated Council should wait concerning cigarette
tax until all cities in County can agree on it; he can support
[fees] for rental units of any type but not amount of fee; fees
should not be the same for $1000 and $300 units; he would like
report from staff to tie fees to gross revenues to average $20.00,
and include single family rentals.
Councilmember Lucas stated she will not vote for any taxes except
to explore concept of Countywide cigarette tax and is glad cable
tax charges for Naval Air Station is being looked at.
President Withrow stated report is before Council for review and
analysis of items that might be feasible in terms of offsetting
what the State might do; he will not vote for any taxes unless the
State "raps" the City.
Councilmember Lucas stated citizens perceive cutbacks in services
are needed; one voter suggestion was to appoint citizens'
committee, each Councilmember appointing one member, and allow
committee, when Council must cut further, to provide suggestions on
where to cut.
President Withrow stated the Finance Committee could do that.
Councilmember Lucas stated this is specialized issue to make
community understand, Finance Committee looks at finances
generally.
Paul Barneich, Deputy Fire Chief, noted a number of specialized
problems supporting the need for a fire boat e.g., water rescue
operations, and water supply needs in the event of a disaster; and
response time.
July 21, 1992
Following brief discussion on the feasibility of placing an
advisory* vote on the ballot, Councilmember Camicia moved to send
a letter to the Board of Supervisors on recommendation D
[supporting countywide cigarette tax]. Councilmember Lucas
seconded the motion which carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
Councilmember Roth inquired if a vote is needed for Cable Tax/NAS
matter; the Acting City Attorney clarified the matter is currently
being worked on; Council by consensus indicated support for
collecting 5% franchise fee derived from cable services to NAS.
The Chair entertained a motion for the balance of items.
Councilmember Lucas moved to ignore the balance of data in the
[report] package. Councilman Arnerich seconded the motion which
carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
92-546 Resolution No. 12297 "Providing for the Borrowing of Funds
for Fiscal Year 1992-93 and the Issuance and Sale of the 1992 Tax
and Revenue Anticipation Notes, Series B." Adopted.
Councilmember Camicia moved to adopt resolution. Councilman
Arnerich seconded motion which carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
92-547 Resolution No. 12298 "Supporting Restoration of the Carnegie
Building." (Councilmember Camicia) Adopted.
Stan Shane, Alameda, stated he supports restoration of Carnegie
Building; should get rid of Linoaks as the City is losing money on
it; with today's economy, should not consider spending 20 million
dollars on a new library in the foreseeable future.
Councilmember Camicia clarified the Resolution only confirms that
any future Council that wants to make a decision on the Carnegie
must look at this resolution, and this Council will be on record.
Councilman Arnerich stated when the Carnegie Building is restored,
it can be used for a number of purposes; but the building's
character is to be preserved.
Councilmember Lucas stated she agrees with Mr. Shane on the subject
but also agrees with Councilmember Camicia and appreciates this
resolution to affirm this Council does not want to destroy
historical buildings.
Councilmember Camicia moved adoption. Councilman Arnerich seconded
the motion which carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
* Note: The Municipal Services Parcel Tax advisory vote was
discussed at July 7, 1992, Regular Council Meeting. [See 92-5151
July 21, 1992
92-548 Resolution No. 12299 "Proposing Amendments to the City
Charter of the City of Alameda, upon Petition of Qualified Voters,
Enlarging the Scope of Binding Arbitration for Fire Fighters and
Deleting Provisions Requiring Voter Approval of Additional
Financial Burdens as a Result of Binding Arbitration; and Directing
the Proposal to be Placed on the Ballot in the November General
Election to be Held in the City of Alameda on Tuesday, November 3,
1992." Adopted.
President Withrow stated he will vote against this, and inquired
what would happen if this resolution is turned down.
The Acting City Attorney stated what would happen is not clear; if
Council refuses to put the measure on, the firefighters could go to
Court and ask the Court to put Measure on, in which case the City
would be liable for attorney's fees and costs.
President Withrow stated such costs would be very little compared
to cost of proposed amendment if passed.
Councilmember Lucas stated the measure would damage the City
budget, but firefighters collected signatures and at this point,
she would like to allow the voters to decide.
Councilman Arnerich stated he is a staunch supporter of arbitration
but this economic period is not the time to do this, concurs with
Vice Mayor, firefighters collected over 7000 signatures and while
he does not support the arbitration per se, he will support placing
measure on the ballot.
Councilmember Roth stated this is a poor ballot measure; citizens
can lose and Council must make this clearer to the public; he would
like further research to change [procedure] so that such matters
need not come before Council but would be automatically [placed on
ballot] if requirements are met; firefighters have done what the
law requires them to do and he will vote for the resolution.
Councilmember Camicia stated Council is nervous about this matter
knowing it will raise taxes, and because Council is voting to put
this on the ballot, the perception is that Council supports it but
that is untrue; this initiative circulated by the firefighters was
a source of considerable controversy because their material stated
it would prohibit firefighters' strikes and that is untrue, and
Council could possibly have signatures removed on basis that what
was discussed with signers of petition was likely untrue; at this
point, Council must do its duty, put the matter on the ballot and
let voters decide.
The motion was carried by the following voice vote: Ayes:
Councilmembers Arnerich, Camicia, Lucas, and Roth - 4. Noes:
President Withrow - 1. Absent: None.
July 21, 1992
Councilmember Lucas moved Councilmember Camicia write the Ballot
Argument against the Measure. Councilmember Roth seconded the
motion.
In response to the City Clerk, Councilmember Camicia stated he will
write the Argument and submit a draft to Council for signature; it
is his understanding there is a group, or groups, interested in
writing Arguments against the initiative; it is up to Council to
decide whether or not it wants first priority [E.C.5016]; believes
an Argument could be stronger from an organization with concerns
regarding schools or taxpayers if measure passes.
President Withrow stated Council will pick and choose an Argument
that will come from the legislative body.
Following discussion on how Council will receive, review, and
select an Argument prior to filing with the City Clerk, the Acting
City Attorney stated the deadline for [direct] Arguments is August
10; if multiple Arguments are filed with the Clerk, Council's
Argument will be given first priority.
Councilmember Lucas noted that Council's Argument will be picked on
August 4th [Regular Council Meeting].
Councilmember Camicia stated the firefighters union will submit an
Argument in favor; when it becomes available, he will write a
response (rebuttal) that Council will look at.
The motion was carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
The Acting City Attorney inquired if Council would like her to
write an impartial analysis of the measure. Council, by consensus,
agreed she should.
92-549 Ordinance No. 2610, N.S. "Approving (MPA-92-1) Amendment to
the Master Plan for Alameda Marina Village." Adopted.
Councilmember Lucas moved adoption. Councilmember Camicia seconded
the motion which was carried by unanimous voice vote - 5.
92-550 Written Communication from Stan Shane, Alameda, regarding
City v. Ballena Isle Marina and related Agreement, (May, 1990);
Award of Contract to Mission Property Maintenance (June, 1992); and
communications received from certain City Departments.
Stan Shane, Alameda, criticized certain items being placed on
Consent Calendar; questioned authorization of an agreement with
Ballena Isle Marina in a Closed Session, signed May 1, 1990; stated
road condition is poor and impassable; objected to the City's loan
of $50,000 to the Marina for road repairs; expressed
dissatisfaction with award of contract to Mission Properties, and
requested staff respond to his concerns.
Councilmember Roth stated he has not heard any complaints from the
July 21, 1992
Homeowners Associations; Mr. Shane replied apathy is the reason.
Councilman Arnerich moved to accept communication from Mr. Shane,
and City Manager and Public Works Director to address subjects of
Mission Properties Maintenance and Ballena Isle Marina.
Councilmember Camicia seconded the motion which carried by
unanimous voice vote - 5.
