Councilman Petersen asked that a discussion on the Hoover Swim Pool rates and administrative costs be held at the next Council Meeting. (Memo 3/12/68) Councilman Petersen also requested that he be permitted to attend a meeting in Sacramento on Friday, March 15th, being called by the Transportation and Free- way Committee of the League of California Cities of which he is a member.

Council- man Bury moved to authorize Councilman Petersen's attendance at the meeting, seconded by Councilman Henderson and carried. (MINUTE ORDER #68-71) Councilman Granger moved that City authorize no further payment of funds to ABAG,' until such time as their financial status is clarified, seconded by Council- man Petersen. After discussion as to reasons for this being recommended and differing opinions expressed by Council members regarding intent of this order, motion ruled lost on roll call vote because of a tie, Councilmen Granger, Petersen, and Rosselli voting yes, Councilmen Bury, Henderson, and Mayor Herkner voting no, Councilman Keckley being noted absent. Councilman Rosselli questioned whether an Executive Session might be in order since receiving City Manager's report on the status of the acquistion pro- ceedings of the Friendly Acres Water System, as he felt it imperative this matter be resolved as soon as possible. City Manager advised there would be nothing to be gained from such a meeting at this point as no further in- formation was available, but willing to review matter further if Council wished any additional briefing should, in best interests of City in view of litigation in this matter, be in Executive Session. No further action taken. Councilman Granger moved that Council adjourn by adoption of RESOLUTION NO. 5635 COMMEMORATING THE MEMORY OF PAUL A. McCARTHY, and read in full the sentiments expressed as to his outstanding contributions to the City development in previous years as a Councilman, former Mayor, and City Attorney, seconded by Councilman Rosselli and carried on roll call vote, Councilman Keekley being noted absent.
