  A.  FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE TASK FORCE ON GOOD
       GOVERNMENT (Pending motion by Vice Mayor Madison to approve the
       Task Force on Good Government recommendations and the Legislative
       Policy Committee recommendations)
       Recommendation of Task Force on Good Government:  It is
       recommended that the City Council:
       (A) Concur with the Task Force on Good Government's proposed changes
       to the City Charter, Article XVII, Taxpayer Protection Act, as set forth in the
       "redline" text shown on Exhibit 1 of the agenda report to accomplish the
       following:               
           (1) Non-profits - The ban on receiving personal or campaign
       advantages should not apply to officers and directors from 501 (c)(3), (4), 
       and (6) organizations (other than officers and directors of political action
       committees or who control political action committees controlled by such
       organizations), except that disclosure of such persons would continue to be
       required.  Section 1703 (b)(2). 
           (2) Contracts with the City - The TPA should be amended so that its
       provisions also cover persons who are bidding on or negotiating for contracts
       that are worth over $25,000 except those who are bidding on or receiving low
       bid contracts.  Section 1704 (c).
           (3) Contribution Limitations - The TPA should be amended to apply
       contribution limits to Pasadena races: $1,000 per election for City Council
       and $2,000 per election for Mayor, adjusted for cost of living increases every
       two years, rounded off to the nearest $100.  Section 1706.5.
           (4) Ballot Measure Committees - The TPA should also cover
       Pasadena public officials who raise money for local ballot measure
       committees that the official controls. Section 1703 (c) (3).
           (5) Outside Election Races - The TPA should only apply to officials
       and candidates in city races and not elections outside of Pasadena. Section
       1703 (c)(3).
           (6) Enforcement - The City should authorize the City Attorney to bring
       criminal actions except in cases involving elected City officials in which case
       the City Attorney should refer the complaint to the L.A. County District
       Attorney's office.   The current law that allows citizens to bring private civil
       actions should not be changed.   Section 1707 (a) and (c).
           (7) Subpoena Power - The TPA should give subpoena authority to the
       City Attorney and where referrals are made to it, the L.A. County District
       Attorney.  Section 1707 (d).
           (8) Agencies Outside the City - The TPA should only apply to
       Councilmembers or other City officials serving on outside boards as City
       representatives (e.g., the Burbank Airport Authority), if these other agencies
       have reporting requirements allowing compliance with the TPA.   Section
       1704 (b).
           (9) Thresholds - The thresholds for determining which decisions
       should be affected by the TPA should be the same (over $25,000) in most
       instances.  The only exceptions would be the grant of a tax abatement,
       exception or benefit, which should remain at over $5,000 in a twelve-month
       period and awarding of franchises worth over $50,000 in gross receipts.  The
       thresholds should be adjusted for cost of living increases every five years and
       rounded off to the nearest $1,000.  Section 1703 (a) (7) and (9).
           (10)   Disclosure Implementation - The files of the City listing those
       persons who would be prohibited from providing personal advantages to City
       officials who have made a decision benefitting them should be posted on the
       internet so that the records are available to the public in an easy-to-use and
       timely manner. Section 1705 (c).
           (11)   Cumulation - The TPA should eliminate the need to cumulate
       public benefits in amounts under $5,000 unless it is clear that the amounts
       will meet or exceed the thresholds.  Section 1703 (a) (8). 
           (12)   Franchises - The TPA should be clarified to require that the
       franchise has to be awarded by the City.  Section 1703 (a) (4).  
       (B)     It is further recommended that the City Council cause to be placed on
       the ballot at the next available city-wide election the Task Force on Good
       Government's proposed changes to the City Charter, Article XVII, Taxpayer
       Protection Amendment.
       Recommendations of the Legislative Policy Committee:  At a special
       meeting held on June 7, 2006, the Legislative Policy Committee took straw
       poll votes on the recommendations of the Task Force, as follows:   
           The Committee recommends support of all of the Task Force
       recommendations.   The Committee's straw poll votes were unanimous on
       Task Force Recommendations (2) Contracts with the City; (4) Ballot Measure
       Committees; (5) Outside Election Races; (6) Enforcement; (7) Subpoena
       Power; (8) Agencies Outside the City; (9) Thresholds; (10) Disclosure
       Implementation; (11) Cumulation; and (12) Franchises.
           There was majority consensus of the Committee to recommend support
       of Task Force Recommendations (1) Non-Profits and (3) Contribution Limits,
       with Councilmember Holden objecting.
           The following are actions of the Committee pertaining to the issues
       referenced in the City Attorney's June 7, 2006 memorandum entitled
       "Proposed General Changes to TPA" (Attachment A of City Clerk's  cover
       memorandum):
           Pre-Contract Black Out Period   There was unanimous consensus of
       the Committee to not delete the words "person or" (as recommended by the
       City Attorney) in proposed Charter language for Section 1704 (c), with the
       first sentence to remain as proposed by the Task Force, as follows:  "No
       person or entity who bids on a contract with the City, or enters . . . ."   There
       was also unanimous consensus of the Committee to replace the City
       Attorney's proposed new second sentence for said section ("Excluded from
       this prohibition are all employees or individual members of the entity.") with
       the following replacement sentence:   "The prohibition on campaign
       contributions set forth in the preceding sentence shall also apply to officers,
       directors, trustees and 10% shareholders of the entity bidding on a contract with
       the City, but shall not apply to employees of the entity who are not officers,
       directors, trustees or 10% shareholders thereof."
           Application of the TPA to Non-Incumbent Candidates   There was
       unanimous consensus of the Committee to have no recommendation on
       applying the TPA to non-incumbents, and allow the full Council to address the
       issue.
           Restrictions on Employees   There was unanimous consensus of the
       Committee to recommend that Section 1704 of the TPA be amended, with
       the amendment to apply to employees only (and not elected officials or
       appointed officials serving on advisory bodies), to keep the current one-year
       restriction after the official's departure from office, but change the current
       five-year restriction to two years from the date the official (employee)
       approves the public benefit.
           Replacing Ban With a Contribution Cap   There was majority consensus
       of the Committee (Chair Bogaard and Councilmember Tyler) to recommend
       that there be no change to the current total ban on campaign contributions
       that may be given by public benefit recipients.    (Councilmember Holden
       objected, and voiced support for a $250 campaign contribution cap.)
           The following are actions of the Committee pertaining to issues
       referenced in the City Attorney's June 7, 2006 memorandum entitled
       "Proposed Changes to TPA As Applied to Land Use Matters" (Attachment B
       of City Clerk's cover memorandum) and City Attorney's February 23, 2006
       memorandum entitled "Task Force on Good Government's Final
       Recommendations" (attached to Task Force's final report):
           Administrative Burden of TPA as Applied to Land Use Matters   There
       was unanimous consensus of the Committee to recommend that the extent of
       the TPA's application to land use decisions be addressed through
       administrative guidelines.
           Authority to Issue Guidelines and Interpretations   There was
       unanimous consensus of the Committee to recommend approval of the City
       Attorney's recommendation (see City Attorney's memorandum dated
       February 23, 2006, attached to the Task Force's final report) to amend
       Section 1707 (e) with specific Charter language to grant authority to the City
       to adopt guidelines for implementation of the TPA that are consistent with the
       findings and declarations set forth in Section 1702 of the TPA.
           Task Force Recommendation to Place Recommendations on the Next
       Available City-wide Election   The Committee acknowledged that should the
       City Council reach a conclusion on these approaches by the end of July
       2006, these recommendations could be placed on the November 7, 2006
       ballot for consideration by the voters.

           Recommendation of City Hall Restoration Oversight Committee: On
           June 14, 2006 and July 12, 2006, the City Hall Restoration Oversight
           Committee reviewed and discussed the above topics of contingency
           adjustments, General Contractor Change Order No. 6, and the contract
           amendment with DMJM for construction management services and
           recommended the following:
               The Committee concurred that theses changes are reasonable and
           consistent with ongoing construction activities of similar projects.  The
           Committee recommended that the City Council authorize the allocation
           of $300,283 from Project Contingency and increase Contract             
           No. 18,768-1 with Clark Construction by $208,283 and increase
           Contract No. 16,976-1 with DMJM by $325,000.

       SINGLE-FAMILY 2 DWELLING UNITS PER NET ACRE HILLSIDE
       DISTRICT OVERLAY); TWO PARCEL SUBDIVISION AND VARIANCE FOR
       LOT WIDTH
       Recommendation of City Manager: It is recommended that the City
       Council, following a public hearing:
       (1) Adopt the Initial Environmental Study and Negative Declaration
       (Attachment E of the agenda report);
       (2) Adopt the De Minimis Impact Finding on the State Fish and Wildlife
       Habitat (Attachment F of the agenda report);
       (3) Adopt the findings that the proposed General Plan Amendment is
       consistent with the General Plan and approve a Land Use Diagram Map
       Amendment from Institutional to Low-Density Residential (0-6 dwelling
       units/net acre) (Attachment A of the agenda report);
       (4) Adopt the findings that the proposed Zone Change is consistent with the
       Zoning Code and approve a Zoning Map Amendment from PS (Public and
       Semi-Public) to RS-2-HD (Single-Family Residential/2 du/net acre-Hillside
       District Overlay) (Attachment A of the agenda report);
       (5) Adopt findings that the variance for lot width submitted with the revised
       parcel map application, that there are exceptional circumstances and
       conditions applicable to the subject site that do not apply generally to sites in
       the same zoning district; and approve the variance for lot width (Attachment A
       of the agenda report);                                 
       (6) Find that the proposed two-parcel subdivision is consistent with the
       goals, objectives, policies, and land uses of the general plan and the
       Pasadena Municipal Code Titles 16 and 17, and approve the proposed
       subdivision; and
       (7) Direct the City Attorney to prepare a resolution amending the official
       Land Use Diagram established by Section 2.105.110 of the Municipal Charter
       for the General Plan amendment from Institutional to Low-Density Residential
       (0-6 du/acre).
       (8) Direct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance to change the existing
       zoning from PS (Public/Semi-Public District) to RS-2-HD (Single-family
       Residential 2 du/net acre/Hillside District Overlay) within 60 days.
       Recommendation of Planning Commission: On January 25, 2006, the
       Planning Commission recommended that the City Council 1)adopt the staff
       recommendations on the environmental analysis and the General Plan,
       Zoning Map Amendments; and deny the variance for the lot width; and 2)
       deny both proposals to subdivide the property.  The applicant was not asked
       to return to the Planning Commission with additional information.  However,
       since the public hearing, the applicant has developed a potential
       development concept, including footprints, to facilitate discussion of the
       proposed subdivision. 
       Recommendation of Historic Preservation Commission: On      
       November 7, 2005, the Historic Preservation Commission 1) acknowledged
       that the proposed project would maintain the Charles Richter Laboratory and
       garage; 2) found that the proposed General Plan, Zoning Map Amendments
       and two-parcel subdivision would not result in an adverse impact to the
       historic resources on site; and 3) recommended approval of the proposed
       General Plan and Zoning Map Amendments.

       house at 580 North Lake Avenue is significant under Criterion b for
       designation as a landmark (Pasadena Municipal Code Section 17.62.040(B))
       because the property has an important association with Charles F. Saunders
       who was an influential author and naturalist and lived in the house during his

       (3)    Adopt a resolution designating 580 North Lake Avenue as a landmark

       Recommendation of City Manager: It is recommended that, following a
       public hearing, the City Council:
       (1) Find that the application for a zone change to establish a landmark
       district is categorically exempt from environmental review under the California
       Environmental Quality Act, (Class 8, Actions by Regulatory Agencies for

       (2) Find that the proposed zone change is consistent with the General Plan

       overlay district petition exceeds the 51 percent requirement in PMC Section

       map overlay for the Tournament Fields Landmark District, LD-15,
       (Attachment A of the agenda report).
       (6) Direct the City Attorney to prepare an ordinance within 60 days
       amending the official zoning map of the City of Pasadena established by
       Section 17.20.020 of the Pasadena Municipal Code to designate the
       landmark district with the LD-15 overlay zone. 
       Recommendation of Historic Preservation Commission: At a public
       hearing on May 1, 2006, the Historic Preservation Commission determined
       that the proposed district meets the criteria in Section 17.62.040 of the
       Pasadena Municipal Code for designation of a landmark district and
       unanimously recommended approval with the boundaries requested by
       residents of the neighborhood.
       Recommendation of Planning Commission: Following a public hearing on
       May 24, 2006, the Planning Commission found that the proposed zone
       change to create a landmark district is consistent with the General Plan and
       the purposes of the zoning ordinance, and voted 6 - 1 to recommend that the
       City Council approve designation of the Tournament Fields Landmark District
       with the boundaries requested by residents of the neighborhood.
