X41 Councilman Rosselli indicated he favors support of proposed resolution inasmuch as Council has strongly supported and promoted the location of the State College in Redwood City and felt supporting resolution would be of aid. Councilman Bury asked when the Mayor would vote on this proposed resolution, and if it would be possible to get a response from the State College Site Selection Committee 'relative to effect of realignment of freeway route on selection of site. Councilman Rosselli replied that some 300 acres were needed for college site and in order to meet full requirement additional property would have to be sought from the land owned by the City and County of San Francisco. Councilman Bury questioned whether route proposed by State is a matter of aesthetics Councilman Rosselli stated proposed realignment considered more aesthetic and also thought to provide better accessibility to the proposed college site. Councilman Keekley questioned further details of route, particularly where it would contact Edgewood Road and further effect on college site. City Manager explained area concerned, and the contiguous 150 acres which would be made available for needed acreage to college -site, not proposed as buildable property, but primarily for parking and playing fields. Councilman Petersen reported on a conducted tour of the three proposed freeway routes offered previously, and the concern for contamination of the Crystal Springs reservoir should freeway be located as proposed by State, besides the possibility of scenic properties which might be opened for recreational uses if route realigned as proposed by City and County of San Francisco, and supported by proposed Resolu- tion of Council of Mayors representing cities of peninsula. Mayor Herkner asked that Council action on this matter be deferred to the legislative meeting. Councilman Bury questioned ordinance proposed changing time schedule of garbage collec- tions, and if other changes were proposed for later consideration as to time schedule on deliveries in CN Districts. City Attorney advised two areas of concern had been previously discussed as to deliveries in CN districts and as to garbage pick up which is presently regulated by ordinance. Staff now recommends Council consider only time schedule for pick up of garbage at this time. City Manager advised of the difficulty encountered in attempting to regulate hours of delivery and further difficulties which would be met on enforcing such an ordinance which would prohibit deliveries of various materials during specific hours. He advised the particular situation which had caused this complaint concerning the Roosevelt Shopping Center was the only place where the CN district was entirely surrounded by residential area. He further advised of the meetings which had been held and that it was still Staff's opinion that this proposed ordinance should be held until all facts of the problem had been further studied in order not to cause undue hardships in other commercial areas by enactment of such legislation. Mayor Herkner announced this item would be deleted from the Agenda as requested, if there were no objections. (Memo 2/7/67)
