MEETING OPEN TO THE PUBLIC <br /> <br /> John Innes, 1586 Foothill Road, asked for clarification concerning what he has read in <br />the newspaper. It is his understanding that the latest wish of the Council was to have the <br />developers meet for 30 days to determine growth management. He had a major concern about <br />growth management. He feels that staff and Council should be involved in these discussions and <br />not let the developers come up with a plan. <br /> <br /> Steve Myers, 1716 Baywood Court, said he was dissatisfied with the recent School Board <br />decision on the boundary realignment. He felt the School Board was jeopardizing the safety of <br />the children in the neighborhood. He was also unhappy that the School Board only notified <br />parents of enrolled students. He felt the School Board should be allowed to use the Council <br />Chambers, so all the meetings could be televised and the public would be notified. He thought <br />the Council and the School Board should work together on siting of schools and boundaries. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala asked Ms. Acosta to address the crossing guard issue. <br /> <br /> Ms. Acosta said that there was no current plan to eliminate crossing guards. The City <br />funds the program entirely. During the budget some years ago process many city programs <br />were looked at as to whether they could be eliminated or cut back. This program was <br />mentioned. It has not been eliminated or cut back. Every spring, in anticipation of the next <br />school year, the program is analyzed. The City realizes that Mohr School will be opening and <br />there may be a need for a crossing guard at that location. The City also has a request for a <br />guard at Santa Rita and Black Avenue. <br /> <br /> Ms. Dennis commented that later in the agenda traffic calming issues would be discussed <br />and that might relate to schools. She said Council did not have any control over what the School <br />District did concerning boundary realignments. <br /> <br />City Council 04/01/97 <br />Minutes 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
