City Attorney John Bakker stated it applied to all solicitors that were subject to the City's Ordinance. DUBLIN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 27 REGULAR MEETING May 20, 2008 7 DRAFT 30~/3 The Mayor asked if it would apply to the non-profit groups outside Dublin. Would it apply to those non-profits based outside the City with Dublin residents in the group? Mr. Bakker stated that was correct. It would apply to the non-profit groups outside of Dublin, but did not know, if a resident was part of that group, would it still apply to that group. He would need to return with the answer. City Manager Ambrose stated that most non-profits could not afford $5,000 and this was geared towards commercial vendors who were in the business of soliciting and making a profit. Mayor Lockhart stated she did not want to approve the item without knowing exactly who would be required to pay the $5,000.

Public Works Director Melissa Morton stated that usually the list of streets was for the Slurry Seal program, but yes, this Staff Report was different this year. There were Traffic Congestion Relief Program monies that had to be spent by June 30, so a portion of the overlay would be done now using those monies and then a portion would be done in Fiscal Year 2008-2009. On motion of Mayor Lockhart, seconded by Cm. Hildenbrand and by unanimous vote, the Council adopted RESOLUTION NO. 77 - 08 AWARDING CONTRACT NO. 08-06, 2007-2008 ANNUAL STREET OVERLAY PROGRAM TO BAY CITIES PA VING & GRADING, INC. Mayor Lockhart pulled Item 4.13 (420-20) Ordinance Adding Chapter 8.42 (Superstores) to the Dublin Municipal Code (420-20) so Cm. Oravetz could register his no vote. On motion of Vm. Sbranti, seconded by Cm. Hildenbrand and by majority vote (Cm. Oravetz voting no), the Council adopted ORDINANCE NO. 22 - 08 ADOPTING CHAPTER 8.42 OF THE DUBLIN MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO SUPERSTORES Mayor Lockhart pulled Item 4.16 (430-80) Proposed Resolution Establishing a Temporary Policy for the Rental of Below Market Rate Ownership Units by Owners Unable to Sell Their Units at the Restricted Resale Price, and stated she was surprised to see this item on the Consent Calendar. DUBLIN CITY COUNCIL MINUTES VOLUME 27 REGULAR MEETING May 20, 2008 9 DRAFT 3} ~73 City Manager Ambrose stated the reason the item had been placed on the Consent Calendar was because Staff had given the Council a report at a previous meeting and the content of the resolution was identical to the principles in that report. Mayor Lockhart stated that on Page 3 of 3 of the Staff Report, the sentence said, "The City Manager would enforce the policy and have the authority to enter into a regulatory agreement with BMR owners in a form approved by the City Manager and the City Attorney." She asked for an example of a Regulatory Agreement. Mr. Bakker stated the City already had regulatory agreements with certain apartment owners which restrict the rent at which the owners can rent units to tenants. This agreement would be very similar to the agreement the City had with tenants. It would restrict the amount of rent and also require that rents would have to be set at low income, very low income or moderate levels and also require the tenants be pre-qualified within that income range. City Manager Ambrose stated it mirrored the Affordable Housing Agreements the City had for those types of rental projects. The City Council and Staff discussed the probability of finding tenants that qualified for such rental rates, and having the item returned to the City Council it there was difficulty in finding qualified renters. The owner would have to enter into an agreement with the City before they rented the unit, but when they interacted with the tenant the rent would be set by the City's Regulatory Agreement. The term of rental could not go beyond two years. Was the City actually helping the owners if there were so many restrictions in renting the units and not covering the mortgage payments? If someone had an affordable unit to rent and the City allowed them to charge a market rate rent, then they would be making a profit. The City Council continued the discussion of market rental rates, moderate, low income or very low income rental rates and agreed to have Staff return with an analysis on the rates to be allowed for the units, and consideration of including Homeowner Association fees in the equation of allowable rates. On motion of Cm. Scholz, seconded by Vm. Sbranti and by unanimous vote, the City Council agreed to continue this item to a future meeting.

There were other minor revisions proposed. Mayor Lockhart opened the public hearing. No testimony was received by any member of the public relative to this issue. Mayor Lockhart closed the public hearing. On motion of Vm. Sbranti, seconded by Cm. Hildenbrand and by unanimous vote, the Council waived the reading and introduced an Ordinance Amending Chapter 4.28 of the Dublin Municipal Code Relating to Kennels. ..

The business occupying the property was known as Orchard Supply Hardware. The proposed resolution required a 4/5 majority affirmative vote to pass. Mayor Lockhart asked had the City not been working on this project for many years. Had the property changed hands during this process? Did the owners just not agree with the appraisal? Mr. Bakker stated the property had not changed hands since 2004. Ms. Morton stated the owners did not agree with the amount being offered for the property . City Manager Ambrose stated the City had spoken to all the property owners regarding the plan line. It had been carefully planned and then adopted by the City Council based on those discussions. Mayor Lockhart stated it was then more or less a pricing issue. Attorney Claudia Gorham stated that the property owner and their attorney were here and they had stated it was only a compensation issue. No testimony was received by any member of the public relative to this issue. Mayor Lockhart closed the public hearing.

The City Council would look at past and current conditions, and would consider the citizen request to create a limited parking zone. Mayor Lockhart asked if the City required other businesses to provide parking on their premises for employees. Was there anything the City could do to require the Post Office to make that parking available? Ms. Bourgeois stated yes, the City did require that of business owners. City Manager Ambrose stated as an agent of the federal government, the Post Office was not subject to the City's zoning regulations. Mayor Lockhart stated as long as the City accommodated their misuse, they would continue to misuse the street parking. The City could not confirm it was only Post Office employees misusing parking in the area. Vm. Sbranti asked if there was any permit parking on City streets. City Manager Ambrose stated the City did not have any permit parking within the City. Cathy Cramer, Dublin resident, stated the parking south of the Post Office was sometimes empty but you would drive by before you realized the Post Office parking lot was full. She has spoken to a resident on Portage and stated she would work with them to get permit parking in their neighborhood because of parking issues.
