City Attorney Woodworth reported as follows:
1. That he had examined a certain Trust Agreement submitted by
Title Insurance and Trust Company, acting as Trustee in connection with a
proposed insurance arrangement for employees of the City of E1 Segundo,
which form of Trust Agreement he stated is substantially correct and sets
up a workable arrangement; that he assumes that in due time the City of
Manhattan Beach will approve said form of Trust Agreement, but anticipates
there may be several weeks delay in such approval due to the absence on
vacation of Mr. Petrie, the City Manager.
2. That in connection.with the complaint filed with this Council at
its last regular meeting respecting an alleged violation by C. M. Burce of
conditions of a certain variance heretofore granted Mr. Burce, that he had
called Mr. Dudley Gray, Mr. Burce's attorney, and explained the matter to
him in full; that Mr. Gray stated he would immediately contact his client
and request him to rectify the situation and report to Mr. Woodworth prior
to tonight's meeting; that up to the hour of 2 :30 o'clock P. M. this date,
he had not heard frcm Mr. Gray and had again called him on the telephone;
that Mr. Gray stated he had consistently tried to contact his client by tele-
phone but had been unable to do so, and he would immediately came to E1
Segundo for a personal contact and Mr. Gray further stated that he was aware
that the conditions of the variance were very specific; that later Mr. Gray
had telephoned him explaining that his client stated the property was being
used for roadway purposes by one of the tenants in the apartment house on
abutting property; that he expected to have the driveway paved by the 18th
of this month; that Mr. Gray further stated that he had informed Mr. Burce
that he would have to erect a barrier by 7 :00 o'clock P. M. tonight and that
such barrier must effectively stop the use of said roadway.
Mr. Robert Heisemen, who had originally made the complaint respecting
such violation, was present in the Council Chamber and the Mayor inquired
of Mr. Heiseman whether or not such barrier had been erected. Mr. Heiseman
stated that a shed building had been moved into the middle of the roadway, -
which building, in his opinion, was a monstrosity, and thereafter, by gen-
eral consent, the matter was referred to the Building Inspector to make an
investigation of the removal to said spot of such building and to ascertain
whether or not proper barriers had been erected.
