DEPARTMENTAL AND CITY MANAGER REPORTS: 8. - AB if9671 - CITIZEN REQUEST - PROPOSAL FOR CREATING - A YOUTH COMMISSION. Dan Hammer. 4015 Isle Drive, stated his proposal for a Youth Commission came from the report by the Child Care Task Force in April of 1988. Mr. Hammsr stated there are programs to take care of other needs, but there is a lack of an umbrella to coordinate the public and private programs available. Mr. Hammer said the Council took action in April to establish a Child Care Consortium to look into public and private child care programs. He felt a second action was necessary; that of establishing a Child Care Commission. Mr. Hammer suggested hiring a staff person to give order to the programs for children. He asked Council to direct staff to look into similar Commissions in other cities and establishing a Youth Commission to give cohesion to the City's programs for children. City Manager Ray Patchett stated staff would be presenting an Agenda Bill next Tuesday updating actions pursuant to Council's direction and establishing the scope of work for the Consortium. Mayor Lewis stated he felt the school system was being -left out and they should inj.tiate any action? with the City taking part but not taking the lead role. Council- Member Mamaux commented he felt the City should not be involved in social weLfare programs. He referred to the unknown costs associatzd with such a Commission and stated he would prefer to consider this during budget considerations. Council Member Larson stated the Council took action several months ago and he would hate to see that action taken away from, as the Consortium might make some suggestions to get the City more involved. Council Member Pettine suggested staff be directed to look at what other cities have done in this area and present a report to Council. Mayor Lewis stated it should first be determined whether the School Districts are interested in the concept before commltting staff time. 7 I \\b 5 COUNCIL 3 %% 3 MEMBERS % $% Lewis X Larson X Mamaux xx Pettine X >. 0 0 MINUTES I (97) October 4, 1988 Page 4 DEPARTMENTAL AND CITY MANAGER REPORTS: (Continued) Council. directed the Mayor to send a letter to all.

AB 1,967'2 - INTERSECTION OF PALOMAR AIRPORT ROAD AND CARLSBAD BOULEVARD. I ____- I Council Member Larson stated he asked this item be placed on the Agenda. Mr. Larson said there are traffi problems in the area of Manzano Drive, Palomar Airport Road and Carlsbad Boulevard. He felt staff should be directed to look at the intersection at Palomar Airport Road and Carlsbad Boulevard to see what interim improvements could be made. I City Engineer Lloyd Hubbs reported that staff will be studying that entire area, including lighting, signing, striping, turn lanes and a possible closing of Manzano Drive. 3ohn Hicks, 3845 Nautical Drive, addressed Council giving statistics on accidents between the various intersections and the number of pedestrians crossing Carlsbad Boulevard at intersections not marked with a crosswalk. 3erri Wolder, 5460 Carlsbad Boulevard, stated she was one of the accident statistics, having been hit while waiting to turn left into her own driveway. She felt that $4,500 worth of damage to her automobile constituted more than a "fender bender". Ms. Wolder stated that a solution must be found to make that area safer for cars and pedestrians. Bailey Noble, 5470 Los Robles, Terramar, stated he has been trying for years to get something done about the traffic and pedestrian safety in that area. He fe1.t that if people were forced to lower their speed to 35 m.p. h. and stop once in a while, they would get the message. Mr. Noble said the Traffic Safety Commission said a study would take months to complete, and he wondered why it should take that long, since he first requested such a study in 1987. He requested copies of the studies when they are completed. Council Member Mamaux stated he would like the study to include street lighting in that area, particularly along Carlsbad Boulevard. 681 I COUNCIL \\B 5 ?3 ?+3 7 MEMBERS % $% Lewis Pettine xx X Larson X Mamaux X *, ,* a 0 MINUTES (41) (23) (45) /\iJ 5 October 4, 1988 Page 5 COUNCIL % %JI/' 3 MEMBERS % %% DEPARTMENTAL AND CITY VANAGER REPORTS: (Continued) Ray Patchett stated the City is working on an agreement at this time with the State to study the road alignment and pull Carlsbad Boulevard together to provide a safer alignment; with a "T" intersection at Palomar Airport Road and Carlsbad Boulevard. Also, there would be more parking created in the area and better access and pedestrian crossing. City Engineer Lloyd Hubbs stated any study involving stop signs and/or signals would take more time, since traffic counts are necessary. However, if striping changes and signage changes are determined to be needed: that will be done immediately. He stated the full study should be complete by December. By consensus, Council directed staff to study Carlsbad Boulevard from Cannon Road to the intersection of Palomar Airport Road for possible interim improvements and endorsed the efforts being made for the complete study . IO. AB /I9673 - RECOVERY OF COSTS IN CONCERNED CITIZENS V. CITY OF CARLSBAD. City Attorney Vincent Biondo gave the staff report as contained in the Agenda Bill. Mayor Lewis stated he did not want to discourage citizens from suing the City, however, he felt they would have pursued the City for court costs had they won the case. He stated he felt people should be aware that although he would not support going after the costs this time, that if anyone pursues a case after a decision has been rendered, then the City should attempt to recover court costs incurred as a result of appeals. Council Member Mamaux stated he felt the City had an obligation to recover some of the money. Council Member Pettine stated it would not be economically feasible for the City to attempt to recover the costs.
