the Unification Church to solicit funds in the City for the support and develop-
ment of Christian youth centers. The Council tabled their request until more
information was available.
Administrator Zylla presented the Council with some suggested amendments to
Chapter 63, Fire Prevention of the Municipal Code. The changes are suggested
by Chief Fagerstrom and conform to changes made by the State Legislature replacing
the Fire Prevention Code with the 1973 Edition of the Uniform Fire Code.
Engineer Comstock's Report
Engineer Comstock explained the highlights of a meeting with the administrator,
attorney, and representatives of N.S.P. this past afternoon. The meeting
concerned the electrical distribution facilities in the area as designated
Project 1973 -4. NSP presented three alternatives: first, leaving the electrical
facilities basically where they are and moving the poles now in the path of the
street extensions off to the side of the street, but within the right -of -way;
second, moving the lines to the rear lot lines of the future new lots that would
be created; and third, going underground with a complete system north of Ardan
Avenue. The staff agreed that the most feasible and economical at this time was
alternative #1 with the exception of proposed Pleasant View Drive which would be
underground because there are not overhead distribution systems in that area at
this time. The cost and complexities of alternative #2 and #3 also bear heavily
on the decision to stay with alternative #1.
MSP (Neisen- Hodges) To authorize the City Engineer to inspect the storm sewer
extension on private property within the Paster Enterprises shopping center
development and assess the cost under Project 1973 -5.
Councilman Hodges' Report
Councilman Hodges stated that he has received some calls on the ordinance which
requires a cash dedication to the park system. Persons question the fairness
of requiring a contribution on the part of the parcel presently occupied by a
dwelling in subdivisions of over 2 lots.
