1. UPDATE ON KELLY RANCH BARN
The Commission discussed the Blade-Tribune article of 9/24/95 regarding the history of the Kelly Ranch
Barn. Commissioner Valenti explained that he had given the Blade some photographs and general
historical information on the Barn and the newspaper had developed the article. The Blade indicated that
they would be interested in receiving material on other historical topics so that more articles could be
published. Possible topics might be the Hosp Grove, Army-Navy Academy, and the Lutheran Home.
A request had also been made to Daniel's Cablevision to run a segment on the Barn. Chairman Bizieff
stated that Daniel's has requested Hold Harmless releases to be signed before they run anything on the air.
Chairman Bizieff did not feel comfortable signing the releases until they have been reviewed by the City Attorney's office.

(CLG) Workshop in Oceanside on October 20, 1995. Commissioner Jones stated that he would attend the

3. PLAQUE FOR SANTA FE DEPOT
Don Rideout, Senior Management Analyst, announced that the plaque for the Santa Fe Depot has been
received. Arrangements are in process to mount the plaque on the Depot structure. After it has been
properly mounted, the Commission will hold a ceremony and invite the City Council, NCTD, and other
dignitaries.
Commissioner Schwei arrived at 5:45 p.m.
4. PROPOSED PLAQUE FOR HOSP GROVE
Chairman Bizieff reported that the Parks & Recreation Commission has agreed to the concept for a plaque
in Hosp Grove. However, the Historic Preservation Commission needs to determine the design of the
monument, what the plaque will say, where they would like it placed, and then go back to Parks & Rec with
a proposal. If Parks & Rec approves the project, it would then be forwarded to the City Council for final
approval. Mr. Bradstreet, Parks & Recreation Director, has indicated that there may be some funding
available in the Parks fund but it would depend on the cost.
The Commission discussed proposed wording for the plaque and decided that it should be concise and
mention early history only. Commissioner Schwei passed out a narrative history of the Grove which her
daughter had prepared for a school assignment. Commissioner Schwei will draft wording for the plaque
and present it for discussion at the next meeting.
Chairman Bizieff suggested that the monument be placed next to the wooden foot bridge, which is the
entrance to the active park area. He presented some brochures containing samples of monuments which
might be considered. The design will be determined after the wording has been established.
5. ADDITIONAL PROJECTS
Don Rideout, Senior Management Analyst, stated that Alan Kindle's photographic presentation of early
Carlsbad structures has been transferred into a video format. He has the video available for anyone who
might wish to view it.
Commissioner Valenti discussed William Knox, an early Carlsbad resident, who has written his memoirs
about life in Carlsbad in the early 1900s. Mr. Knox currently lives in Texas and he is very old.
Commissioner Valenti suggested that the public might find Mr. Knox's writings very interesting and it might
even be something that could be published in the newspaper.
Commissioner Valenti left the meeting at 6:22 p.m.
COMMISSIONER REPORTS:
Chairman Bizieff reported on the Carrillo Ranch Master Plan Committee and stated that they interviewed
several firms and finally selected KTU&A to prepare the Master Plan.
Commissioner Wanamaker reported on the Redevelopment Master Plan Committee and stated that the
Master Plan went to the Design Review Board and Planning Commission two weeks ago but it was
continued to November 4, 1995.
Commissioner Jones reported on the Barrio Association and stated that the Barrio Master Plan was
presented to the Barrio Association but was sent back to staff to rework height and setback matters. Once
it has been revised, it will be presented again, presumably in late November or early December.
