By common consent : it was agreed that this matter be referred to the staff i for investigation and report. I I ORAL COMMUNICATIONS: MRS. BATISTA, Chairman of the Safety Committee of : the Jefferson Street P. T. A. , stated the members of the I P. T. A, were very anxious that some action be taken oa : their request, the first item under correspondence, and i she would like to know how long it would be before a report would be made back to the Council on this matter?i I I I I I I I I 1 I I I & ; Mrs. Batista was informed that a report would be made i i at the next regular meeting of the Council on October 4, : : 1960. I I i MR. BETZMER, 3870 Highland Dr., Carlsbad, read i \ a statement (which is on file in the office of the City Clerk) ; setting forth four major factors against the formation of : i a harbor district advocated by the proponents of the i Carlana Harbor District, which in essence are as followd: ; (I) The taxpayers of Carlsbad will underwrite the major i i portion of the cost of development of the Elijo Lagoon : ; and the Bataquitos Lagoon, without any assurance of I i reciprocal support to develop the Agua Hedionda Lagoon; ; : (2) The San Diego Gas & Electric Co. has made no I I commiOment to make available to the City the major : portion of the lagoon for development; (3) Mr. Betzmer i i advocated a harbor district to be formed having boundaries ; corresponding to the City of Carlsbad, to be controlled i i by the City without outside influence; and (4) Mr. "Gup" : : Allen and Mr. Max Ewald, both candidates for office as i i Directors of the Harbor District are motivated by ; interests which are detrimental to the taxpayers of i Carlsbad. In closing, Mr. Betzmer urged the Council : : to renounce their support of this scheme to have the I i taxpayers enrich a few individuals whose creed will i stop at nothing in order to accomplish their objectives. i I I I I I I I I I I I I I 1 1 1 0 I i Cmn. La Roche stated that any quotes that were read of ! i his were in favor of a district if it would be to the ad- i .; vantage of the City. It is not the intention of any of the 8 i members of the Council to burden the citizens of Carlsbab i with taxes, and there will be a great deal of consideratio4 i given this matter before any action is taken. i PUBLIC HEARINGS: I I I I e l I I I I I i I I I I I I 1 I a.

Later when he came out to check the property, : he informed them they could not use the line without a i pump. Anderson and Robinson checked the property and : they informed them they could not connect without exces- i sive cost to them. He appeared before the previous I I Council for relief, and he was informed they could not do I anything about the matter as there property was in 8 I I 1911 Act District, but at such time as the chinquapin i sewers were installed they could connect to that line. I I They have connected two lots to the Garfield sewers, but i have paid their assessment on four lots. I I 4 ! i Mr. Thornton, Assistant City Engineer, stated he did : not know what the Engineer's intention was; in many i instances you may find one lot in a district that will call : for an 18' depth cut; however, the normal procedure is i to treat the district as a whole. Mr. Thornton also ; pointed out there were 16 other corner lots in this same I vicinity that may have the same problem, in fact there i are probably other properties in the city with the same i problem. I I I I I ' I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I t ! I Cmn. Bierce suggested that a field check be made of all I i these lots in the vicinity of the Lull property, as the t I : Council's action could well be guided by all of these lots i I rather than one. : After considerable'discussion it was agreed that this i matter be deferred in order that a field check could be i : made of the Lull's property as well as the other corner ; i lots in the vicinity.
