Subject: OLYMPIC LITTER WALK
Gentlemen and Ladies:
The Great Marathon Walk Litter Bag Stroll Get in Shape for the Olympics
was a tremendous FAILURE!
We provided a cool morning, ideal conditions for.the occasion. In short, the
weatherman was the only participant.
The past week we had radio coverage Red Baron Breakfast Club on Thursday,
May 31st Air Watch on Friday, June 1st. The media posters displayed
throughout the Community, alerting to the occasion.
Result: ZERO participation. Shocking? Yes!!!
Solution: City Ordinances requiring owner/occupant responsibility to
clean and maintain their property in an acceptable condition.
Other communities require the owner/occupant to clean or have cleaned by the
City and charged for same.
We have allowed this unacceptable situation to exist too long. Volunteers
are not the answer to resolving the irresponsible behavior of our residents.
So levy a penalty on the unconcerned a pocket book contribution will get
their attention and provide favorable results.
Respectfully,
THE OLYMPIC LITTER WALK COMMITTEE

Gentlemen:
Southern California Water Company has prepared a Main
Replacement Program for the improvement of water service
to customers, as well as improvement of fire protection
capabilities.
The Company, through Richard McDowell, would like to arrange
a day or evening meeting with the City Council members and
others the Council members may wish to invite. At this
proposed meeting, the Company would present the Main Replace-
ment Program, the estimated capital cost of the pr9gram and
the effect on water rates, if the capital cost is Company
funded or if the capital cost is Advance for Construction
that is, funds provided by the community. At this meeting
we would expect a question and answer period, and that this
meeting could be one of several.
Very truly yours,
SOUThERN CALIFORNIA WATER COMPANY

A PROPOSAL FOR A COOPERATIVE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DESERT
SANDS SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THE CITY OF LA QUINTA:
The children who live in the City of La Quinta attend schools
in the Desert Sands district. Their activities, needs and
problems overlap school and city service requirements; they
are the responsibility of both governmental organizations.
Consequently, it seems desirable that the City and the Dis-
trict develop a cooperative relationship to be responsive
to these needs. The policy-making level would be the most
appropriate starting point for exploration and planning.
Therefore, the following is suggested:
1.0. A committee be formed consisting of two school board
members, two city council members, the district
superintendent and the city manager.
2.0. The committee to meet quarterly to explore possible
joint efforts and programs in such areas as:
2.1. Work-study program
2.2. Recreational activities
2.3. Cultural and artistic experiences.
2.4. Education in functions of local government.
2.5. Addressing problems of anti-social behavior.
2.6. The drug problem.
2.7. Community tutorial programs.
3.0. The role of the committe will be to identify desirable
activities, possible funding sources, and appropriate
staff assignments for implementation.
4.0. If this relationship can be commenced successfully
between La Quinta and the District, other cities
served by the District may be requested to partici-
pate.

B MEMORANDUM
CITY OF LA QUINTA
To: Fellow Council Members
From: Fred Wolff
Date: 5/22/84
Subject: Flanning for the use of the million bucks
The million dollars committed by Landmark to the city as
compensation for closing Jefferson is intended for a coinniunity
service project or facility. I hope we can arrive at a use
of the funds which addresses the needs and desires of the
largest nuinber of people...perhaps through planning for a
multi-purpose facility which can serve the old and the young,
the not-so-old and the not-so-young; the wealthy and the not-
so-wealthy; the sports minded and the arts minded and the
literary minded; etc., etc. etc.
I suggest the following process to assure providing expression
from a *ximum number of residents of La Quinta:
1. With the August newsletter, mail a questionnaire see
attached suggestion) to all residents of La Quinta, asking
for their preference for use of the funds.
2. Appoint a coininitteqof residents, representing those interests
which received the largest number of responses, and assign
them the task of developing a conceptual model of addressing
the most-desired programs/facilities.
3. Let a professional person translate the conceptual model
into a recommended design.
4. Fresent the final plans at a town-meeting, probably late
this year. Obtain approval from the people....then move
to implement.
What do you think?

MEMORANDUM
CITY OF LA QUINTA
To: The Honorable Mayor and D**bers of the City CounCil
From: Planning Department
Date: June 5, 1984
Subject: Ordinance Extending *Moratorium on Outdoor Advertising Displays,
Signs and Structures
BACKGROUND
On May 11 1984, the City Council adopted Ordinance *. 53 establishing for a
45*y period the n**Moratorium on outdoor advertising signs. It is necessary that
this n*ratorium be extended in order to allow sufficient staff time to develop
and prepare for hearing new regulations governing these types of signs. The
Government Code allows a ten*month an* fifteen-day time extension for such a
moratorium.
Staff has already begun to collect information to facilitate the development of
appropriate regulations to govern outdoor advertising signs, but has not developed
a work schedule for this project. It may be desirable to incorporate this project
with the new sign ordinance on which work is just beginning.
**ATI*
The Planning Director recar[[ends that the attached ordinance extending this
moratorium be adopted.

APPROVED
To: Fellow Council Members D AS TO CO*ENT
From: Fred Wolff * * CJ* COU*CIE E)TNG
CF
Date: May 17, 1984
ER
Subject: Council Organizational Matters
I would like to submit the following two items for your
consideration:
1. I recommend we move the reorganization of the Council
from April to November. Like any legislative body, the
newly elected Council has the right to reorganize after
the new members are seated. Leaving the reorganization
in April raises the possibility of Mayor and Mayor Pro-
Temp serving for six months following the election, or
six months prior to election as is the case now). It
just doesn!t seem reasonable or orderly. Mayors should
serve a minimum of one year to provide stability and
experience in that position; and that can only be achieved
if reorganization takes place in November.
2. I recommend that the Council act to place the issue of
direct election of Mayor on the ballot for this November's
election. I think two gains would be achieved:
1.Selection of a Mayor by the Council does always create
some bitter feelings, and tends to interfere with the
team spirit of the Council. I don't think the rotation-
system is very desirable either because not all Council
members PRESENT COUNCIL EXCLUDED!) are necessarily
equally qua*fied for the position of Mayor. That role
does require additional skills, leadership, and time-
commitment;
2. The Mayor is perceived as the ceremonial and political
leader of the community by the people in the city. It
seems appropriate that they be provided the opportunity
to select the person for that role.
Please keep in mind that, should this be favorably voted
upon by the city, none of us would be affected* during our
present term. The issue would be brought to vote on the
November 1984 ballot; the first election for Mayor would
not be until November 1986.

The plan and specification for the signal improvement
at Washington Street and Eisenhower Drive is now
complete, and ready for a call for bids.
I am informed by the traffic signal engineer that the
cost is expected to be $47,000. The signal is demand
responsive, with most of the green time on Washington
Street, and with green time for Eisenhower Drive when
needed. Also, the controller will have the capacity

Date: May 25, 1984 OF
Subject: DISASTER DRILL EXERCISE*ISE SPECIAL REPORT
Attached is a critique and synopsis of a valley-wide disaster
drill which was conducted on Thursday, May 17, 1984. The scenario
involved an earthquake of 8.6 Richter occurring near the Coachella
Valley. The earthquake was foll*ed by a tropical storm with heavy
rain and flooding. The drill was broken up into time increments of
Time Zero when the quake happens), Four *urs post*guake, and
Twenty-four hours post*uake.
The purpose of the drill was to exercise the response capability
and reactions of various agencies. *ounications were also tested for
capabilities without the benefit of the mountain-top repeater.
Several city staff were declared dead" during the drill to
facilitate carrying on of normal operations. The entire C**ty
Safety Department participated as did Riverside County Fire Department
staff at Station #32 La Quinta).
The drill was organized through the Coachella Valley Err*rgency
Services Group of which our city participates regularly. The plan
for a regional-wide disaster earthquake or flooding) evolves around
the Incident CcXrTr*d System ICS). This means the establishment of
a centralized *mand center sanewhere in the valley to which each
agency sends a representative. This is where the decisions are made
particularly in regards to resource allocation and manag*nent.
The critique doesn' t so much critique" as it outlines fictional,
but entirely possible happenings and the reaction to them.
Staff response was excellent and our co*unication options if we
lose our repeater were established. A basic message was quite clear
as a result of this drill: more planning and preparation is needed.
Respectfully si3]*nitted,

MEMORANDUM
CITY OF LA QUINTA
To: City Manager Usher and the City Council
From: John Bund, Chairman, Traffic Safety Committee
Date: May 10, 19B4
Subject: SPEED ZONING IN LA QUINTA
The recent report to the City Council from the Traffic
Safety Committee presented some recommendations relating to
speed zoning in La Quinta. The data was based on the Jan.
1983 study which was done by the Automobile Club of Southern
California.
Prior to authorizing the sheriff's department to enforce
speed zones with radar, we need to establish the City Council's
approval of those speed zones as established by the ACSC. If
the City Council wishes to modify or change those speed zones
in any manner, then we need to conduct another speed survey.
The courts will only prosecute those cases where radar
is used if a valid and current speed survey is on file with
the courts. To attempt to issue citations in non-approved
speed zones constitutes running a speed trap" and is in
violation of the California Vehicle Code. This is not wise
and hurts the city two ways: it destroys our credibility
with the court system, and it damages our relationship with
the sheriff's department.
The Traffic Safety Committee recommends the following
action fror** the City Council:
1. Adopt the speed survey as it presently exists ACSC
study) and authorize staff to re-sign and re-legend
those areas accordingly. This will allow court approved
use of radar for speed enforcement immediately.
2. Advise staff to conduct another speed survey via ACSC)
or contract for a private consulting firm to conduct a
separate speed survey at an unknown cost. It would then
be up to the City Council to approve the new speed survey
which would then have to be certified by the courts.
A new speed survey does not guarantee different or popular
findings on certain speed zones. It is a scientific study and
is based on factual data gathered in the field.

The Traffic Safety Committee also recommends that the
City Council further discuss the other recommendations from
the special report and advise the committee as to whether it
approves or disapproves of each item. This will give the
Traffic Safety Committee some direction on which to base
further actions.
The Traffic Safety Committee extends an invitation to
all City Council members to attend our meetings. This
committee exists to serve at your discretion. We are working
hard to improve traffic safety in the community. Thank you
for your continued assistance and support.
