473 from present review it was not thought that a full moratorium entirely necessary as certain annexations were thought to be natural conclusions. City Manager stated it was also thought desirable to discuss this subject with the County Planning Commission in order to see what other cities are planning in matter of annexations. He reminded Council of the discussion held with San Carlos and of the Staff level agreement which had been reached about a year ago and presented to Council but which had not resulted in any direc- tive of Council to proceed. Planning Director stated benefit would be derived if Council formulated a "sphere of influence" which would be helpful in dis- cussing plans with San Carlos in order to settle differences before LAFC took action to resolve differences. Mayor Herkner suggested a special portion of a Council meeting might be set aside for consideration of this subject. City Manager mentioned others implicated in this situation, i.e., utilities, schools, streets, etc., and stated that after further study Staff would make a recommendation to Council. (Memo 2/28/67) Councilman Bury questioned status of property on Jefferson Avenue at Piedmont which had been rezoned by Council from R-1 to R-2 and was supposedly set for immediate development. He stated he had observed a "for sale" sign now on property and particularly sordid appearance. Mayor Herkner suggested Staff might contact property owner and get property leveled out so a better appear- ance would result. Councilman Rosselli stated he had no objection to Staff contacting owners to see if better appearance could be had for lot, but believed Staff report to Council should contain proposed development for property, and if nothing pro- posed, suggested Council should take action to rezone property back to R-1. Councilman Keckley also asked that present sign on property be checked to see if nonconforming. (Memo 2/28/67) Minutes of Regular Meeting Redwood City Council February 27, 1967 8:o0 P. M.
