5 Revised San Mateo County Operational Area. Civil Defense and Disaster Organization Agreement Following discussion on August 13 , 1973 , Council continued the matter to this date , with referral to Staff for report back with copies of file , letters and agreement , all of which were submitted prior to this meeting . Councilman Rhodes ( alternate representative ) reported he had gained the informa - tion that the Area Disaster Council , consisting of 19 City Mayors or their appointed representatives , met four times a year and the last time they met was March 29 , 1973 , and that they do not meet on a regular scheduled time but they felt the next meeting would be in September or October , at which time they would notify Mayor Keckley . He briefly outlined the background of their funding and noted that the $ 50 , 00 honorarium had been voted upon and passed by the majority of the membership that attended the adoption meeting . The feeling was still very strong that the honorarium should not be paid to any member attending the meetings and that the City ' s opposition should be made known , Council asked the Manager to write a letter to the Chairman and copies to all representatives of the Area Disaster Council stating their concern regarding one section of the agreement having to do with the honorarium and that the City would like to petition the Council to eliminate that portion from all the agree - ments . It was decided to continue the matter until a response had been received from their communication . (MEMO 8/29/73 ) Redwood City Police Youth Club - Recreational services agreement Following discus - sion on August 13 , 1973 , Council voted to continue the matter to this date to allow submittal by Staff of the proposed agreement , which was submitted prior to this meeting , In answer to Councilman Leipzig ' s question of the ownership of the Police Youth Building , it was noted that the City owns the land involved only and maintains the building and the insurance .

Agreements re Soils Engineering Services - Mobil -Redwood Shores Water Storage Tank ( Dames and Moore ) . Following discussion on August 13 , 1973 , Council voted to - - continue the matter to this date , to allow submittal by Staff of additional in- formation , which was submitted prior to this meeting , In answer to the Council ' s concern on several portions of the subject , City Manager commented on the necessity of this tank to provide proper balance to the domestic water service system to maintain even pressure and provide necessary fire -flow in the advent of breakage of the main lines to feed water reservoirs , He noted this tank would be classified as a secondary water supply for fire - fighting purposes , With regard to Council ' s concern regarding the tank ' s resis - tance to earthquakes and that recent studies had indicated that tanks constructed above ground had a greater potential for being damaged in earthquakes , he remind - ed Council that not only the tank in question but all future construction of public facilities in that area would have the benefit of the Seismic Report data . Mr . Ron MacQuarrie , representing the Redwood Shores Homeowner ' s Association , spoke with concern regarding the site location and thought that this point should be given a closer look . Director of Public Works assured Council that Site #3 was reviewed as a good lo - cation to balance the system , servicewise , for the existing and proposed residen- tial development as well as the proposed shopping center , and that this was only a request for further soils investigation , and in no way locks the district into this particular location and there would be at least two , possibly three more to be built . City Manager also reassured Council that there was a disclaimer set up and purposely included in the agreement which does not commit the City to that particular site , however , as far as Staff knows now with regard to tentative land use in terms of the shopping center and actual land use allocations , that this exact site would be the most desirable location . City Manager briefly reviewed the sites under consideration . Mr . Neil Smith , of Mobil Oil Estates , commented that his company agreed with the selection of the site as a location which will enable everything to move in a most expeditious manner , even though Site No , l already has plans and specifications available . There being no further discussion or communications , Councilman Leipzig moved to adopt RESOLUTION NO , 6980 APPROVING AND AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF AGREEMENT RE- LATING TO FINANCING OF CERTAIN SOILS ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR REDWOOD CITY GENERAL IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT NO . 1 -64 , (Mobil Oil ) , and ; 8/27/73 Reg .
