Motion carried. REPORTS OF COMMITTEES AIRPORT NOISE & SAFETY ACTION COMMITTEE - Councilman Nagel reported that the Airport Noise and Safety Action Committee will hold an Executive Session with the Los Angeles Airport Noise Abatement Committee regarding maintenance area noise, i. e.- , engine run -up after hours. Airlines now have available commercially, silencers which will give a greater amount of relief from such noises. American Airlines is already using ground silencers which, although they are not as good as they would like them to be, do give quite a bit of relief. At this Executive Session, the discussion will be in regard to further amplification of rules on noise silencers on engine run -ups at night. INTER -CITY HIGHWAYS COMMITTEE - Mayor McGill reported that he had been contacted by the Inter -City Highways Committee to encourage better attendance by appointees at their meetings. Councilman Nagel then stated that the committee will be doing a great amount of work in the next year, primarily concerning the Hawthorne, Pacific Coast and Century Freeways (Century Freeway now known as the Airport Freeway). The committee feels that the fight concerning the Pacific Coast Freeway is not yet over because it still appears on the Master Highway Plan. It still terminates at approximately Pershing Drive and Imperial Highway and they would like to see the State De- partment of Highways terminate it at the Airport Freeway to -give the airport a westerly access in addition to its easterly access. There will be several hearings this year on the- Hawthorne Freeway. The present feeling is that not enough people are active and they would lake to have at least two active representatives from each City. Councilman Frederick then reported that this area's representative to the Southern California Rapid Transit Board appeared before the Inter -City Highways Committee and assured them that he would keep them informed of any action taken by the Rapid Transit Board and that he would appear at any time they felt it was necessary. Mayor McGill stated that the City had been asked to appoint a layman to the Inter -City Highways Committee, particularly someone from Standard Oil Company, since if this freeway does -go through, Standard Oil Company will be directly affected. The name of Mr. J. W. Daily, Governmental and Public Relations Officer for Standard Oil Company was then submitted for the approval of the Council, which name would then be presented to the Inter -City Highways Committee. Motion was then made by Councilman Frederick, seconded by Councilman McElhaney, that Mr. J. W. Dally be appointed as Layman to the Inter -City Highways Committee. Motion carried by the following vote: I . • Ayes: Councilmen Frederick, Kimport, McElhaney, Nagel and Mayor McGill; Noes: Councilmen None; Absent: , Councilmen None. SISTER CITY COMMITTEE - Mayor McGill announced that the Sistbr City Committee had named Trischa Hanisch as Queen and Donna McClary and Vicki O'Bannon as princesses for this year. The Queen and her court will go to Guaymas in February for the celebration there. It was noted that several of the service clubs in the City had offered to pay the expenses of the Queen and princesses as well as the cost of the float, thereby relieving the City of any financial responsibility therefor. It was the consensus of the Council that the travel expenses of the Sister City Chairman should be paid by the City since the Chairman is ap- -3- X 1829 pointed by the Council. Councilman McElhaney suggested that a formal request by the Chairman be submitted to the Council for each trip to be made to Guaymas during the year so that formal approval of expenses can be given. Motion made by Councilman Kimport, seconded by Councilman McElhaney that the travel expenses of the Chairman of the Sister City Committee, when he is travelling on Sister City business, be paid by the Council, with formal request for permission for such trips to be submitted to the Council in advance. Motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Frederick, Kimport, McElhaney, Nagel and Mayor McGill; Noes: Councilmen None; Absent: Councilmen None. Mayor McGill congratulated the Chamber of Commerce on the Christmas Parade and commended them on their efforts. He stated that work had already begun on next year's parade. Mayor McGill reported that a meeting had been held with Mr. Weldon J. Fulton, who has done a great deal of architectural work for the Joslyn Founda- tion. This meeting, also attended by City Manager Sailors, Jack Ruis, Recreation and Parks Department, was for the purpose of discussing the pro- posed Senior Citizens Building which the City hope to construct with financial aid from the Joslyn Foundation. After discussion of the present Senior Citizens Program in 1,'1 Segundo, Mr. Fulton felt that a 4000 sq. ft. building would be inadequate and felt that 6000 sq.ft, would be better. The cost of the larger building would be approximately $100, 000 and if the City would agree to appropriate $50, 000, the Joslyn Foundation could probably match that amount. Motion made by Councilman McElhaney, seconded by Councilman Kimport that the architect be requested to submit plans and that the City Manager and the Mayor be instructed to negotiate with the Joslyn Foundation for a matching fund arrangement for the construction of a 6000 sq. ft. Senior Citizens building at a total cost of $100, 000. Motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Frederick, Kimport, McElhaney, Nagel and Mayor McGill; Noes: Councilmen None; Absent: Councilmen None. City Manager Sailors reported that the north fence on the Girl Scout Area on California Street is being relocated in preparation for placing the City -owned lots up for bids. City Manager Sailors was asked to check into the matter of the parking situation at Robb Is restaurant. -It had come to the attention of the Council that the employees of Robb's were not using the parking lot but were parking on East Palm Avenue, thus adding to the congestion on that street. City Manager Sailors was asked to check into the parking situation at The Wooden Shoe restaurant on E1 Segundo Blvd. Director of Public Works Webb was instructed to establish a loading zone in the 400 block of Main Street, south of the crosswalk on the westerly side of the street. INSURANCE COMMITTEE - Councilman McElhaney reported that after discussion of the insurance matters, this committee felt that it would be ne- cessary to hold a personnel session with all the Council present to make some decisions regarding insurance. It was therefore voted to recess at the close of this Council meeting to a personnel session in the office of the Mayor. Mayor McGill submitted for the Council's approval a list of seven names to comprise a committee to be known as Council's Liaison Committee on Public and Business Affairs. • The purpose of this committee would be to keep the Council informed by a written monthly report of the public feeling on matters of interest to the Council. , The following names were submitted Mr. Paul Briles, Chairman Mrs. Cari Cameron Mr. L:er, Balmer, Vice Chairman Mrs. Mary Wislocky Mr. Jack Brett Mr. George Renfro Mr. Volney J. Stefflre -4- x 1830 Motion was made by Councilman Nagel, seconded by Councilman McElhaney, that the above named committee be approved. Motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Frederick, Mayor McGill; Noes: Councilmen None; Absent: Councilmen None. Kimport, McElhaney, Nagel and It was noted at this time that the resignation of Mr. John McGregor from the Recreation and Parks Commission would leave a vacancy which should be filled as quickly as possible. Councilman Nagel suggested that some time be given to allow anyone who wishes to apply, to submit their resume. Councilman Frederick felt that since resumes had been received very recently for another opening on this commission and since there were some excellent candidates among those who had applied, that Council should, in an effort to fill the vacancy as soon as possible, appoint someone from among the resumes already in possession of the Council. Councilman Frederick then made the motion that a Recreation Commissioner be ap- pointed I during the personnel session to be held at the close of this Council meeting. Motion carried by the following vote: Ayes: Councilmen Frederick, Mayor McGill; Noes: Councilmen None; Absent: Councilmen None. Kimport, McElhaney, Nagel and REPORTS OF OFFICERS CITY MANAGER SAILORS MADE REPORTS AS FOLLOWS: 1. Presented for the Council's consideration a letter from the County Health Officer recommending that the City adopt the County Public Health Code. It was suggested by the Mayor that this be taken under advisement until such time as it can be studied. 2. Presented a request from Standard Oil Company for stocking their facility's fallout shelter, which shelter has been designated as acceptable. Motion was made by Councilman Frederick, seconded by Councilman McElhaney that the City Manager be authorized to sign a request that the Federal Government furnish the necessary supplies for stocking the fallout shelter at Standard Oil Company's facility. Motion carried. 3. Requested permission to take four days vacation beginning December 23, 1964. Motion made by Councilman Nagel, seconded by Council- man Frederick that the above request be granted. Motion carried. 4. Presented a report from the Southern California Humane Society in response to the letter from Mrs. Walstrom to the Council at the November 23 meeting. This report showed the animal control report for the months of October and November. City Manager Sailors stated that he felt that the Southern California Humane Society is executing its contract with the City in an acceptable manner and in accordance with the leash laws of the City. The leash law was put on the books by referendum and provides that the only places where a dog can be taken into custody is on public property if they are not on a leash. The law does not prohibit dogs from running loose on their own property whether fenced or not. It would therefore be almost impossible for the Humane Society to prevent such things as Mrs. Walstrom noted in her letter. To amend the ordinance would require another referendum vote. 5. Reported that bids had been received on an 8 to 10 yard dump truck for use in the Street Department as follows: Ira E. Escobar, Inc. $11,198.11 International Harvester Co. $11,237.89 The low bid from Ira E. Escobar, Inc. was subsequently withdrawn as they could not furnish a truck that would meet the City's specifications. -5- X 1831 Therefore, the City Manager recommended that the truck be purchased from International Harvester Co. Motion was made by Councilman Frederick, seconded by Councilman McElhaney that the bid of International Harvester Co. in the amount of $11, 237. 89 for an 8 to 10 yard dump truck be accepted and that purchase order in this amount be issued.

Presented for the Council's information, a report on Public Utilities Commission hearing held December 8, 1964, on crossing protection for Sepulveda Boulevard and Pacific Electric Crossing in the City of E1 Segundo. This case was initiated by a motion of the Public Utilities Commission, In the Commission's motion, the Pacific Electric Railway, the State Division of Highways, and the City of E1 Segundo, were named as respondents. Tes- timony presented on behalf of the City of E1 Segundo is included in:the at- tached statement, which was presented to the examiner and subsequently marked "Exhibit 131T . Considerable cross:- examination of all parties occurred, and the position of the City of E1 Segundo, as presented, was that the City has no rights, privileges, or responsibility regarding this crossing since it is a privately owned crossing on a State Highway, and that the City therefore has no re- sponsibility for contributing to the cost of any up- grading of safety devices. The recommendations made on behalf of the City as to a different type of local safety device, plus early warning signs, were made because the City is naturally interested in its safety records, and is interested in providing the maximum safety possible for all traffic moving within the City. The hearing was adjourned and the examiner stated that a transcript of the record would be available in 30 to 45 days, and at that time he would establish a date for continuance (approximately 30 days after each respondent receives a copy of the transcript). Each respondent has been instructed to prepare a brief of a proposed decision by the Commission, which will be pre - sentedt to the examiner at the continuance of the hearing, probably in February, 1965. 3.
