Public Hearing The Deputy Clerk announced that this was the time and
Landscape place set for the public hearing, continued from the
Ordinance meeting of June 4, 1979, to consider a proposed ordi-
nance amending Title 13 of the Costa Mesa Municipal
Held Over Code, adopting landscape requirements and standards for
all districts, except R1. Environmental Determination:
Exempt. Based on the Planning staff's recommendation,
a motion was made by Councilman Hall, seconded by
Councilman Raciti, and carried, to continue this item
to the meeting of August 20, 1979.
Public Hearing The Deputy Clerk announced that this was the time and
Magic Carpet place set for the public hearing of an application for
Ambulette a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity, to
provide wheelchair ambulette services, from Magic Carpet
Ambulette Corporation, 1560 East Edinger Avenue, Santa
Ana. The -Acting City Manger referred to a memorandum
to the Finance Director from the Revenue Division dated
July 3, 1979, which states that the Fire Department rec-
commended that the driver of the van be required to
carry an Advanced First -Aid card. On May 1, 1978, the
Council granted applicant's initial request that this
company be granted a permit for the period of one year,
authorizing the transportation (on a non -emergency
basis) of passengers confined to wheelchairs. However,
the permit was revoked, due to lack of Certificate of
Insurance, as required by Costa Mesa Municipal Code
Section 9-264. A properly executed Certificate of In-
surance is now on file, and the Revenue Division's
recommendation.is to grant the permit for one year and
at that time the Council could review the matter before
a permanent permit is granted. The applicant, Ronald
Rogers, spoke in support of his request, answered ques-
tions from the Council; and agreed to the conditions.
During discussion, it was pointed out that the ambulette
services are covered by a special franchise provision
on the Costa Mesa Municipal Code, Section 9-258, and
that this service is on a non -emergency schedule. Phil
Gazzo, 175 Cabrillo Street, Costa Mesa, Vice -President
of Operations of Orange County Schaefer's Ambulance
Service, spoke in opposition to the request, and asked
for a revision to the ordinance regulating rates in the
City. The acting City Manager pointed out that rates
and standards for emergency -ambulance and non -emergency
ambulette services are two seperate issues. There being
no other speakers, the Vice Mayor closed the public
hearing. During discussion, it was decided that the
ordinance governing rates for these types of franchises
would be -referred to the City Attorney and brought up at
the next convenient study session. On motion by Council-
man Hall, seconded by Councilman Raciti, the application
was approved for one year, subject to the conditions
that the van driver shall carry an "Advanced First -Aid
