COMMUNICATIONS : ( a) Written - Copies were submitted to Council . 1 . Request of City of Petaluma for participation by City for support in their legal suit in Federal District Court for Northern District of California , since relating to Planning regulations set by their City , and results of which suit could be of benefit to all cities , and public agencies in the State of California . City Attorney advised Council that ordinarily participation by City in another City ' s legal suit in which City might wish to support would be by amicus curiae , as had been done several times , He questioned propriety of participation in monetary request made by City of Petaluma for joining in this legal suit , which in effect would be support by contribution to legal fees of attorneys involved therein . Councilman Henderson commented on her extreme interest in this particu- lar suit since having heard Mayor Putnam on several occasions and felt it would behoove our City to participate since this same issue was before our City also . Mayor Keckley noted that many decisions handed down daily affecting cities and questioned whether this request had been sent to all cities in the State , or just specific cities , since it was evident City couldn ' t participate in this manner to other cities or set such a precedent . After further discussion as to legal status of City ' s participation and evident need for more details , City Attorney was requested to contact the City Attorney of Petaluma , as he had suggested , in order to gain more particulars and report back to Council with a recommendation . (Memo 9/27/73 ) Councilman Norris noted correspondence from Fire Chief Keller which had been addressed to the City Manager and copies submitted to Council . He felt this item deserved a note of recognition and indicate Council ' s favorable reaction for his undertaking steps to further a fire preven- tion program with no extra expense involved . Mayor Keckley stated all of Council would join in commending Fire Chief Keller . 9/24/73 Reg , Mtg .
