Absent : None. INVOCATION was given by Monsignor Raymond Moore from St. Patrick's Church. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE was led by Council Member Larson. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: Council Member Mamaux questioned the December 20, 1988, Minutes on page 7, which said Council Member Pettine reported he had met with Supervisor MacDonald per Council direction at the meeting of December 13, 1988, and Dr. MacDonald was very favorable toward the proposal and had requested a briefing by staff. Council Member Mamaux requested clarification on two items: first, he felt Council may suggest action to another Council Member, but could not direct another Member; and, second, whose staff was being referenced. Council Member Mamaux said it was his understanding that Council had suggested Mr. Pettine meet with Supervisor MacDonald to go over Items 1 and 2 of his tri-level proposal. Mr. Mamaux said that Council had not approved Items 1 and 2 of the proposal and he did not think it fair to ask our staff to brief another staff or the Supervisor on something this Council had not approved. Council Member Pettine stated Items 1 and 2 of his proposal were very similar to some of the principles in Carlsbad's Growth Management Plan. He said when he presented the tri-level proposal to Supervisor MacDonald, he was very favorably impressed, and he also was interested in what Carlsbad is doing in terms of land use planning. Mr. MacDonald suggested being briefed by our staff on all of these concepts so he has a clear understanding when this comes before the Blue Ribbon Committee and SANDAG. Mayor Lewis stated he understood that Mr. MacDonald was to be briefed by City staff on our Growth Management Program and Level 3 of Mr. Pettine's proposal only, since Level 3 had been supported by Council. Council Member Larson stated the Council supports and advocates the City's Growth Management Plan. City staff is knowledgeable about that Plan, but to ask them to respond concerning Level 3 of Mr. Pettine's proposal would place them at a disadvantage, since they've been given no Council direction to do any work on Level 3. 5 A e 0 0 MINUTES *% Oanuary 3, 1989 Page 2 MEMBERS COUNCIL \\ %?$%%+ Z. @ Z. 6 APPROVAL OF MINUTES: (Continued) Council concurred that when the presentation is made before SANDAG, staff will assist in giving technical assistance pertaining to the City's Growth Management Program, and as Council Member Pettine gives his presentation on the conceptual idea of Level 3 of his proposal, staff could support technical questions. In response to query, Mr. Mamaux stated he was awaiting a written request from Mr. Pettine. That request could then be forwarded to the SANDAG committee for placement on an agenda.
