Vice Mayor Rodgers submitted the report of the Committee of the Whole on this matter which reads as follows: "The Committee of the Whole recommends to the full Counciltheadopt',iun of Plan A -b for the irnprovernent of Oregon Avenue, subject to: ")'That the City retain control of traffic speed, truck. tr;a.ffic` arid traffic access. "2) That left-hands.torage lanes be provided. "3) That suitable- traffic lights be installed to flow traffic at 25-30 miles per hour. "4) That the half block between Emerson and High be completed, and that the staff submit plans for completing the improvement in this block. "5) That a connection off Oregon to Alma Street (as provided in Plan. A-9) be included and made a part of Plan A-8. "6) T hatt.h,e Matter of eligibility for County funds he.. cleared with the Cou.rlty. 'The Corrimittee of the Whole tabled consideration of the connecting link.; between Alrri .. and El Camino B eat: A motic:n'was made by Zweng and seconded that the, recomm ndatior of the Committee of the Whole for the adoption of Plaar A -b, with.'the,corditions as stated above, be approved. It as rn.oved by Debs that the motion be amended to' include Plan A-IO,lor .the i:n:pr•overnent of Page Mill Road, the connecting linic.;between Alma and El Camino Real, stating that if the matter is ;going to the voters, the whole question should be put on the ballot 'The are erdment was seconded by Rus .

Byxbee stated that it was his hope that trterr will- be a:g" ade:.eparation:,some day at Page Mill and'El ,Carniro:, .and;h'. thought no further improvement should be made. to this portion the>street until plans have been developed for t:h., grade separation, noting that the street had been widened and imp: lived a few years, ago when the underpass was c:or.strucrec1:; Coui cilrYiai Rohrs concurred, and Councilman /_,wcng stated that • he, felt it was not proper ,to present Plan A-10 tc t're people at this time. .`He: urged the 'Council to defeat the amend -'gent, :Councilman Debs, stated, that he has direct information from the State Division .of Highways -that' a grade separation will not be constructed at Page Mill and El. `Ca.rr ro unless there is a County Expressway eroseing El Camino. roll call vote on the amendment to include Plan A-10 as follows: •.Aye:. Debs, Dias, Rus. Noes Arnold, Byxbee, Haight, Marshall, Porter, Rodgers, Rohrs, Stephens, Woodward, Zweng.: a'nerdnent was declared lost. In answer to questions raised by Councilwoman D es,r, the City. ,Manager advised: that if the motion to adopt Plan A-8 .3s: ; • recommonde< by the Coz±artittee of the Whole is passed, the staff coxrespOnd immediately with the County andrequest an answer before, the: n':ext`Couinoii meeting as to the eligibility for County bond funds tofinance the improvement; also that no further infor.;na- tion bas been received as to the selection of a route for the Willow Roaci"Freeway,';. and' that there has been no discussion between one' City: and State engineers as to the:' possibility of substituting the irnprove- merit o c:?r. eon .for Vv ill.ow , In answer to questions raised by Councilman Debs, the 'City Marager stated that the improvement plans prepared by„the County would be approved by the City, and that the relinquishment of the. street -,as a County; highway is for the purpose of maintenance which becomes :a responsibilityof the County. At`this' time Councilman Debs read the following state!-- ment which_he• later filed and re:quested it be included in the mina,te.s' in its entirety: regret to, say that an indictment hangs over this Council .:of -the city of Palo Alto. Like a Grand ;;ury mert buteven- more serious, this indictment lies in the following questions- which we, as a Council, have persistently refused o: £ac'e, let alone answer: Why are we, rushing ahead with the relinquishment of Oregon, Avenue -Page Mill Road to the County forever for a major trafficway alteration, a scant tw.o months be ore the new General Planpresumably will be presented to this Council? Before we have even discussed the density of population and the industrialization (being advocated behind the scenes) of the Foothills? Before we have even faced-- let alone discussed -..the questions: 'Where are we gaing as a City? 'What kind of city do we want here in 10 years ?', 'For whom are we planning th“,s city?' "Z. Even though this Council has unanimously rejected the.Expressway and the Parkway projects, it is blithely proceeding with the Zweng 'boulevard' p:an, an expressway-truckway thinly disguised and easily vulnerable to conversion to the original Expressway;. How can the majority of this Council rewrite history by ignoring. 5,700 protestors as a small minority and by ignoring its own unanimous rejections of a bare six months ago? "3. How can the majority of this Council by rushing through this Oregon catastrophe, pre -commit the; new General Plan? ing vote; "ire indictment is made by our own actions, agair_st ourselve.n gentlemen A roll-call'vote was then taken on the original motion to adopt Plan A.-:8 in accordance with the recomrrendatior o` the Committee of the Whole, and the motion was carried by the follow- Ayes: Arnold, Byxbee, Haight, Marshall, Porter, Rohr s, Rus, Stephens, Woodward., Zweng, Noes: Deb's,Dias, Rodgers. The wor'ding of the measure to be placed on the June 5,'' 1962 ballot was then discussed, and Councilman Porter made a report for the committee (Porter, Cresap and Debs ) which had been appointed to work with the City Attorney in developing and recommending the wording of the proposition to be put or the ballot. follows: Three proposals for the wording were submitted as (I) "Do you favor a'major improvement on Oregon Avenue requiring a'divided four -lane roadway, a frontage road to serve existing properties on the northwest side, a: planting strip on the southeast side, and requiring ;;he acquisition of approximately 88 parcels of land, the • project to be financed by the County Bond Issue of 1 961''?"
