10. - AB 89683 - ESTABLISHMENT OF CARLSBAD CHILD CARE CONSORTIUK " ___-
3im Hagaman, Research/Analysis Di-rector, gave the staff
report as contained in the Agenda Bill.
Mayor Lewis referred to the request for a Youth Commission the prior week and Council direction to send
a letter of inquiry to the School Districts concerning
ioint sponsorship of such a Commission. He stated he
kad drafted the letter which would be sent out
tomorrow, and reiterated his opinion that nothing
should be done until a response is received from the
School Districts.
Council Member Mamaux concurred, and stated he felt the
employee freeze should be dealt with before any funds
were allocated for additional staff.
.Julie Nygaard, 3405 Spanish Way, spoke in opposition to
the formation of a Consortium, stating she was
concerned the issue was becoming a political- football.
She stated a Consortium would be too large a aroup to
be workable and suggested a Commission, with the
assistance of a consultant, as originally recommended
by the Child Care Task Force, would be more effective.
Anna Knox, 1860 Highridge, concurred that a Consortium
would not be in the best interest of the City. She
stated a Consortium would be too large and cumbersome,
leaving the financing of child care to the business
community. Mrs. Knox also recommended a Child Care
Commission under the auspices of the City Council.
3eanne McFadden, 1331 Chinquapin, spoke in opposition
to the Consortium, stating it was too broad a scope of
responsibility and out of phase with the implementation of the adopted Child Care Policies. Mrs. McFadden also
recornmended the establishment of a Child Care
Commission, as recommended by the Task Force, with the
City to act as a facilitator for child care systems in
a partnership with the employers in the area.

DEPARTMENTAL AND CITY MANAGER REPORTS: (Continued)
Dan Hammer, 4015 Isle Drive, spoke in agreement with
the previous speakers, stating he repeated his request
of last week to establish a full City Commission to serve the needs of the children, either limited to
child care or expanded to include all youth-related
services.
Elaine Lyttleton, 4210 Sunnyhill Drive, representing
the Chamber of Commerce, spoke in favor of the
Consortium, stating the Chamber had responded to a need of the City and would not only participate in the
Consortium, but would offer Chamber staff time. Mrs.
Lyttleton felt a Consortium was a good starting point.
Council discussed the concept of a Consortium and/or a
Commission; and the pros and cons of expanding the
issues beyond child care to include the issues facing
youth, such as drug abuse.
Council continued this item until receipt of a response
from the School Districts concerning creation of a
Child Care Commission.
RECESS :
Mayor Lewis declared a Recess at 7:16 p.m., and Council
re-convened at 7:25 p.m., with all Members present.
DEPARTMENTAL AND CITY MANAGER REPORTS: (Continued)
11. AB F9684 - CONFLICT OF INTEREST PROPOSALS.
Council Member Mamaux stated he would disqualify himself
from this item as he could not discuss an ordinance
:which affected him and he left the dais.
Council Member Pettine stated he requested this item
placed on the Agenda and he repeated a history of the
Conflict of Interest proposals. *Mr. Pettine stated his
reasons for recommending a Lobbyist Registration
Ordinance patterned after the County of San Diego
Ordinance. He also stated that money was the real
issue in determining the existence of a conflict of
interest. Therefore, he reauested that an ordinance be
prepared which would prohibit a Council Member or
Commissioner from voting on an item if that Member is
directLy or actively engaged in soli-cj-tation of money
for private interests from the individual or business
who is appearing before the Council or Commission.
Council Member Larson expressed concern about the
timing of the proposal. He also stated that such a
proposal should be able to stand on its own without the
naming of individuals. An additional concern was that such ordinances might inhibit or restrict
participation in local government.
Council Member Kulchin concurred with the comments of
Council Member Larson, and expressed the opinion that
the issue is political.

DEPARTMENTAL AND CITY MANAGER REPORTS: (Continued)
Mayor Lewis reviewed past actions and accusations by
Council Members concerning violations of the "Brown
Act", and expressed concern that the proposed
ordinances would only be used to further personal
vendettas of Council Members. He also stated that the
proposed ordinances could mean that only retired
individuals or commuters could serve on the Council.
Council Member Pettine made a motion to adopt both of
the proposals covering the "Impact of Lobbying
Activities" and the "Solicitation of Money for Private
Gain". The motion died for lack of a second.
