MINUTES OF THE OCTOBER 3, 1977, JOINT CITY COUBCIL/BOA1tD OF SUPII1V1SOU Ki:E1'ING Mr. Sisk presented an update OD the work perforued in trying to develop the Monta Vista plan line for St_ Creek Boulevard u well .8 the proposed time schedule. He also Mt forth sOlIe of tha 18sues yet to b. resolved and questions regardiug laud us., and in respells. to l1li inquiry Rtated that the property OWIIers aDd citizens of KDnta Vista vere very much involved in the deteniaatlOD asking process, (b) Financing improvements of Boulevard, if SlId when needed. Hr. Quinlan sdvised members of the Board that the adoption of the plan line eventually would lead to COD8truction of the street. The possibility existed that this could occur prior to such time as the area might be annexed to the City. Under these sets of circumstances, there could le a funding obligation On the part of the County. Members of the Board commented that the County was in a position now of trying to find funding for those projects already approved, and that when the project was ready for cOD8ideTat~on it would be well for the City to adopt a resolution requesting action by the Board so that the pro1ect could receive its fair attention in being p1aced on a priority listing. (c) H.C.D. Program and effect upon Ccunty residents. Mr. Quinlan advised the Board of the methOü in which funds were be~.ng expended by the City in the unincorporated area which in addition to housing redevelopment included such it... as water lines and the redesign of streets. Counc. Mey'cs commented that the application for us. of a portion of these funds for Memorial Park had been turned down by BUD even though this particular park was uaed extensively by residents of the unincor- porated area. He thought that there definitely was a possibility of the City being forced to relinquish administrative responsibility for th~ BCD grant program to the County if the federal restrictio~s on the use of the money became too tight. Board members said that they are concerned and offered COunty staff as a possible communication and coordination conduit with BUD staff to see if the problems can be allEviated. Mayrr Frolich said that it was becoming increasingl/ more difficult to justify to the City's taxpayers the use of City staff time in the admin- istration of these progr..ms which benefit.ted non-City persons. Super- visor McCorquodale offere~ the thought that the County might have corres- ponding money eligible for the type of improvement desired in these areas which could be traded off for the use of a similar amount of money under the HCD grant. which then could be used for BUD approved projects in other parts of the COunty.

Paramedic Plan - Cupertino review, The Bosrd was advised that this issue is now before the Public Safety 00II- mission for review and that s report would be forthcoaiDg in the near future. Chairwomar. Steinberg said that the County Executive vas receivial and evaluating all comments relating to this issue and that in t~e very near future draft agreements would be distrihuted in ..e~ings with City Kanagers. Hr· Siegel stated that there would have to be inter-city cooper- ation on zones and houndaries particularly, the tf.llle of this being undeter mined now but hopefully toward the end of the month. 4. Reduction of fire service costs and taxes. Hr. Quinlan gave a status report on the proposal for the creation of a separate west valley zone w'lich 1 f created would result in a reduc tion in the tax rate. The affected jurisdictions are now in the process of pro- ceeding with a study to determine cost effectiveness. Be Rave hi. opinion that the use of an assessed valuation baae for funding does not relate to the level of service needs, and that any plan wouló have to be discussed in depth among Cupertino, San Jose, the Central Fire District and the Board of Supervisors as well as other affected cities. 5. County Park - St. Josephs property. In response to a question by Mrs. Nellis, Chairwoman Steinberg said that 130 acres had been purchased by the Coanty, and thst a map of the area would be sent to the City. She &aid that the County had been dealing more with the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District in t~e pas~ and that in the future there would be more coordination with the Cit; at the staff leve 1. Mrs. Nellis expressed apprer.iation for the efforts by the County, but there was n~ed for effeccive joint plaaaing in the area. Discussion on the matter then evolved into ~raffic planning being a factor in relation to the North County Solid Waste questions and the next agenda item having to do with the Kaiser-Permanente conversion. 6. Kaiser-Permanente conversion. Chairwoman Steinberg summarized the concerns and the issues involved for the other memòers of the Board, because they had not yet been presented to the Board for action. The request for permission to make the conver- sion was now before the County Planning Commi~sion, and she Raid that the City did not get proper notice of this othec than through the agenda transmittal. Members of the City Council and staff'presented the City's position as to the concern over environmental issues and said that it was ironic that small projects within the City required sometimes extensive Environmental Impact Repor~s but that such ~ large project as the Kaiser-Permanente conversion cû!tld be grant2d a categorical ~xemption. The City's quarrel was not with the Board of Supervisors but with the Stste regulations or law whi;h would permit this to occur. An independent study was desired for only certain aspects of this. There was no real necd to have all questions answered fully as otherwise might be contained in an BIa.
