Mr. A. Kiang appeared before the Council in regard to a building at the corner of Oak and El Camino Real. City Attorney' McCarthy explained to the Council that at the direction of Building Inspector'Duncan he had prepared the appropriate notices to insitute abatement proceedings against this building and that the matter would be formally presented at the next meeting of the 0ouncil. Mr. Kiang advised that he had definite and concrete plans to build a new building as soon as possible and asked the Council to grant him per- mission to leave the building as it is until that time. He has the building rented to a real estate agent on a month to month basis who will move in as soon as the Council grants Mr. Kiang permission for him to do so. As said he owned the lot next to the Nipa Hut to which he could move this building but that he would prefer to keep it where it is temporarily until hecan build a new building in which he plans to conduct a home furnishings and appliance store. City Manager Mead explained that he had been instructed to not allow the building to be occupied again and for that reason abatement proceedings had been instituted. Mayor Hilton asked if Mr. Kiang had owned the building when the instructions were given to the City Manager, to which Mr. Kiang re- plied that he had not and that the person from whom he bought the building had not inforied him of the instructions. It was the general consensus of the Council that they would be willing to carry the matter on the agenda from month to month. Councilman Anderson aeked'Mr. Kiang if he understood that he acquired no rights about the building being left there and that the Council could remove it at�any time. Mr. Kiang signified that he understood that to be the case. Councilman Anderson moved, seconded by Councilman Fletcher, that the matter be carried on the agenda for the first meeting in June. Motion passed with Councilman Armstrong voting in the negative. City Attorney McCarthy reported that he had attended a meeting of the Peninsula Division of' the LeaGe of California Cities in San Jose at which time he pre- sented a resolution which the Councils recently passed requesting the Board of Supervisors to consider coordinating the city and county planning, commissions by having a representative of the county planning commission on the city com- missions. He reported that the idea was favorably received by the League and that he had been appointed chairman of a committee to work out a plan whereby this could b e accomplished. 3.
