Mayor Herfert noted that six speakers card have been received

COUNCILMEMBERS' REPORTS
Councilmember Miller —
Reconsideration of a Cameron Park Community Center and
Gym Construction (BP 00309 B)
Public Works Director/City Engineer Yauchzee presented a quick
overview of this project.
Karin Armbrust Karin Armbrust, 2837 E. Vanderhoof Drive, spoke in favor of the
project and urged Council to continue to support the construction
of the center and gym.
John Scheuplein John Scheuplein, 1800 Aroma Drive #247, spoke in favor of the
project.
Monica Peters Monica Peters, 819 S. Indian Summer, spoke in favor of the gym
as the Coach/President of the West Covina Youth Basketball
Team. This would give the league a place to call home.
Rob Sotelo Rob Sotelo, 1456 E. Larkwood, stated that the gym is very
important to the community.
Royal Brown Royal Brown, 2153 Aroma Drive, urged Council to move forward
with the construction of the gymnasium.
Alan Carrico Alan Carrico, 2937 E. Mesa Drive, also urged Council to move
forward with the project.
Council Comments In response to Mayor Herfert as to costs already incurred by the
City on this project, City Manager stated that a conservative
estimate at this point would be no than 5500,000. There is no
estimate at this time for any additional costs of the contractor
should take the City to court.
Councilmember Miller reiterated his basic opposition to the
project. He favored a community center and gymnasium, but not
at this location.
He referred to the Municipal Code section that provides an
opportunity to Councilmember to reconsider a previous motion.
He stated that his intention is to change the project at Cameron
Park to construct the community center only and move the
gymnasium component from Cameron Park to the more centrally
located site at BKK.

Council Minutes of 4/15/03
Motion Motion by Miller and seconded by Wong to rescind the prior
action and direct staff to meet with the contractor to implement
Option 2 of the staff report and consider moving the gymnasium to
the BKK property.
Councilmember Sanderson referred to the 2020 Vision document
• to validate the community's desire for a community center/
gymnasium. The facility is going to be a beautiful asset to
Cameron Park and there is a need for an indoor basketball court for
the youth of the community.
Councilmember Wong concurred with locating the gymnasium on
the BKK site. He reminded Council that the residents adjacent to
Cameron Park did not favor the gym at Cameron. He also noted
that the City may have $53 million, in assets, but not simply sitting
in a reserve account available for use.
Councilmember Hernandez believed the BKK site is more
centrally located for the residents than the Cameron Park site. He
supported the relocation of the gymnasium, unless it was going to
cost more than $100,000 to accomplish that.
Mayor Herfert stated that this project has been in the works for the
last six years and just because there has been a change on the
Council, that is not reason enough to reverse a project. For a City
to go down the path of stopping a project after ground has been
broke, bonds have been floated, etc., is just not right.
He suggested to Councilmember Hernandez that he not get
involved in this issue and abstain on the vote.
Councilmember Sanderson summarized past actions taken by
Council, studies conducted, and reports prepared. She reminded
the audience that the footprint of the new community center/gym is
the same as the old facility. The old facility provided outdoor
basketball; the new facility will bring it indoors, which will bring
the noise inside as well.
City Attorney Alvarez-Glasman asked for a clarification of the
motion. Councilmember Miller stated that his intention is to
rescind the prior action of the City Council [See Page 8 of
February 18, 2003 City Council Minutes] and have staff report
back after meeting with the contractor to implement Option 2
[Option 2: Proceed with only the construction of a community
center, and delete the gymnasium portion].
Council debate ensued regarding parliamentary procedures and the
motion on the floor.
Closed Session City Manager Pasmant suggested that the City Council recess to
close session before taking any action to discuss Councilmember
Hernandez's concern regarding costs already expended on this
project.
City Attorney Alvarez-Glasman advised the Council on the
required action to take to enable the Council to recess into Closed
Session.
Motion by Sanderson and seconded by Hernandez to add a
closed session to the Council Agenda for an item that came up
after the posting of the Agenda that requires a conference with the
City Attorney, in compliance with Government Code § 54956.9(a),
anticipated litigation. Motion carried 5-0.
