The City Clerk reported that affidavits in support of the publica-

or objections against the vacation had been filed with her in the matter, and

desired to address the Council respecting such proposed vacation, and no one

The Mayor announced that this was the time and place heretofore
fixed for the reception of bids for the construction and improvement of a
Community Recreation Center in and for the City of 11 Segundo, and inquired
of the City Clerk if she had received any bids therefor.
The City Clerk advised she had in her possession one bid, whereupon
it was moved by Councilman Frederick, seconded by Councilman Gordon, that the
Council proceed to open, examine and publicly declare said bid. Carried.
The following bid was then opened and read:
Bid of John L. Meek - Base Bid, Areas 1, 2 and 3 - $536,600.00
Deductive Alternate No. 1 (Omitting Area 3) - - - 53,21.1.00
Deductive Alternate No. 2 (Omitting Area 2) - - - 164,364.40
A notation was attached to the foregoing bid by the bidder stating
that no electrical work of any kind is included in said bid.
The Council questioned Mr. Meek, who was present at this meeting,
and he stated he had been unable to get any electrical contractor to submit a
bid.
It appearing the bid is insufficient and not in accordance with the
proposal, it was moved by Councilman Baker, seconded by Councilman Frederick,
that the said bid be rejected. Carried.
Mr. William YoolleU, Architect, who prepared the plans, specifica-
tions and proposal form for the project, recommended that he together with the
Recreation Commission and a member of the City Council study the plans and
specifications as prepared by him and that undoubtedly changes could be made
that might simplify the bidding. He stated, however, that due to the great
amount of construction work being done it night be difficult to secure reason-
able bids.
The Council thereupon instructed Mr. Woollett to revise his plans,
which he stated would take approximately 30 days and thereafter, it was moved
by Councilman Meschuk, seconded by Councilman Gordon, the following resolution
be adopted:
RESOLVED, that William 0. Woollett, Architect, be and he
is hereby authorized to resubmit plans on the construction of
a proposed Community Recreation Center and following approval

fixed for the hearing of objections against the proposed changes, additions
and /or modifications in the plans, the Resolution of Intention No. 1610, and

certain street improvements in Eucalyptus Drive; each change, addition and//or
modification is particularly described in Resolution of Intention No. 1629
adopted on the 9th day of July, 1956.
The Clerk reported that the affidavit in proof of publication of
Resolution No.1629, declaring the intention of the City Council to make said
changes, additions and/or modifications had been made and is on file in the

5. That as directed by the City Council he had met with representa-
tives of North American Aviation, Inc., Hughes Aircraft, Douglas Aircraft Co.
and the City of Los Angeles to ascertain whether or not the traffic signal
presently in operation on Imperial Highway at the North American building
might be moved westerly to either Douglas Street or Nash Street, where traffic
signals presently are in existence; that no definite agreement had been reached
as yet in the matter.
Thereafter, by general consent, the City Manager was requested to
follow through and endeavor to obtain the consent of the City of Los Angeles
to the moving of such traffic signal so that the remaining signals on Imperial
Highway might be synchronized.
6. That Douglas Aircraft Co. had requested the installation of
additional traffic signals as follows:
1. Aviation and 118th Street - The cost of this installa-
tion is estimated at $10,000.00 by the County Engineer's Office.
Under the usual formula, the cost would be shared, 50% by E1
Segundo and 50% by the County. The County of Los Angeles will
design end construct these signals and E1 Segundo's share of
$5,000.00 (estimated) would be paid to the County.
2. Aviation and 124th Street - These signals are for the
primary benefit of a private parking lot, and the County policy
is that the private concern bear the total cost of installation.
These signals would be designed and conatruated by the County,
and this City would have no function in this matter other than
issuing a permit to the County to do work in the Streets, which
matter would be taken care of by the Street Department.
3,, El Segundo Boulevard and Douglas Street - These sig-
nals are greatly needed, and are entirely within the City of E1
Segundo. The total cost is estimated at $5,400.00, and it is
recommended that this City should design and construct these
signals for the above st4ted amount.
Following consideration'of the foregoing, it was moved by Council-
man Frederick, seconded by Councilman Qordon, that the City Engineer be and he
is hereby authorized and directed to prepare plans and specifications covering
the signals not forth in Item 3 above, and to thereafter present same to this
Council for its approval. Carried.
Moved by Councilman Frederick, seconded by Councilman Baker, that the
City Manager be and he is hereby authorized to enter into negotiations with the
County of Los Angeles for the preparation of an agreement between the City of
E1 Segundo and said County of Los Angeles, covering the installation of traffic
signals under Item 1, above set forth, and the payment by the City of El Segundo
of its share of the cost of such installation. Carried by the following vote:
-8-
1K 998
Ayes: Councilmen Baker, Frederick, Gordon, Neschuk and
Mayor Bonfield;
Noes: Councilmen None;
Absent:, Councilmen None.
As to Item 2, above set forth, no action was taken inasmuch as
Douglas Aircraft Co. will bear the entire cost of such installation and the
only procedure necessary to be taken by the City would be the issuance of a
permit by the Street Department.
7. That at a previous meeting of the City Council he had been
instructed to make a survey of the boulevard stop signs on Maple Avenue with
the idea that perhaps some of such stop signs might be romotred; that in view
of the fact said street will shortly be widened and improved he recommended
the matter be held in abeyance until the improvement is completed and follow-
ing such completion, a traffic engineer be employed to make this surrey. No
further action was taken at this time.
8. That he had previously been rogaested by the City Council to
investigate the matter of the purchase and operation'of an ambulance by the
City of El Segundo; that he had received quotations from the Studebaker Company
on an Ambulette, the approximate cost,of which would be ;3,651.37; that he had
also received a quotation from a company which would use a Ford chassis, the
cost of this equipment being $3,542.70; that the equipment using the Ford
chassis would be-almost identical with the present Rescue Rig now in operation
by the City, and he felt this latter equipment could be. adapted to fit the
needs of the City at a cost of approximately $800.00.
Follewipg lengthy discussion of the matter it was moved by Council-
man Frederick, seconded by Councilman Baker, and unanimously'carried, that the
Mayor appoint a committee to make a thorough investigation of ambulances which
might be procured, the type and cost thereof, the approximate cost of opera-
tion, and other matters in connection therewith.

Meschuk, and City Manager Sailors on said committee,, such committee to wake
