He felt that this might slow down the traffic and be an advantage. The islands would beautify the street and would also be a safety advan- tage. He has spoken to a lo1: of the residents and they have all spoken in favor of the medians. The City Engineer said that if the medians were put in, the best time would be at the same time as the reconstruction project in order to get the best cost break. Mayor Saltare11~ felt we should poll the people to see if the major- try are in favor of the islands. The tslanos would prohibit left turns into driveways. The City Engineer said that he had some preliminary cost estimates. The f~rst one is from Myrtle to "8" St. and is $70,600. The second one is fram 200 ft. west of ~yrtle to 'C" St. and ts Maintenance would be approximately 35~ a square foot. Councilmon Hoesterey suggested that we have a layout of the islands for an attachment to the letters for pOlllng of the ~estdents. Counctl waman Kennedy thought the medians would beautify the area but she felt the costs were high. The City Engineer commented that there would not be enough room ~or "U" turns w'tthout the car backing up. He will poll :he residents. g5 8e XI.

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 6, 9-2-86 OEFENSEPLAN In light of the airplane crash in Cerrltos, Councilman Hoesterey felt we should prepare ourselves if we ever have such an accident in the City. The City Manager responded that we do have a State approved Defense Plan but it is an item that we need to update annually and train our personnel. We are looking at what kind of materials, factlt- tles, etc., that we need to make the plan work and that could include things like the use of voluntemrs, etc. [03 3.

The City Engineer responded that it wes supposed to be open three weeks ago. He said we have to do the work in stages to keep the intersection open. We are at the mercy of the contractor. We feel that it should be completed by the middle of next week. In response to Councilman Xoesterey, the City Engineer said Chat we do have penalties in our City contracts, however, Chis is not a City contract. 9S $. REId CITY ~1311PIl~ Counctlaan Kennedy noted that she had seen new City street striping and wondered if it had been done at night. Most of the lane lines and some of the crosswalks are done by contract striping crews. They do all the work at night and it makes much less of an impact. Some of the striping will have to be done at night. 95 Counctlwman Kennedy reported that Kenneth Fleagle, our former Com- munity Oevelopmont Director, is very tll in the Santa Mortice St. John Hospital. 7.

It was moved by Edgart seconded by Hoestere~, to direct the City Attorney to came back with a resolution addressing probable cause as a Justification to have a drug test. Motion carted 5-0. Mayor Saltarellt coll~nted that as part of the publicity relatlve to drug testing, the idea of mandatory testing or testing for all employees has been a topic of discussion. He wanted to make it clear that the Council has not been and continues not to be on a "wttr~ hunt" for any employee w,~ might be taking drugs on private time or trying to invade anyone's privacy. ~owever, as a matter of attempting to keep a good drug free environment, which he thinks we already have in the City of Tusttn, it wes moved by Saltarellit .sec- onded by Edgar, that staff be directed as part of the meet and con- fer process to meet with the Employee Associations and discuss methods and moans by w~tch we could come to another conclusion to see to it that Tusttn has a drug-free work environment. Councilman HoesCerey clarified that there is a national a~areness regarding drug use and we wont to work together to address a prol31em that is a national problem and does have national htghllgnt. We weot to ge~ help to anyone who might need help and to create a better onvironment for e~erybody. The intent is to work together as a team with the employees to bring a drug free work environment to our city. Councilman Edgar stated that to any of the Council's knowledge, there is no drug problem tn ?ustin. However, if there should be a problem, it is essential for us to have the openness to seek help and to have a willing support in our City to get help and be a better e~loyee because of it. Councilwomen Kennedy said that she had concerns ~out it and actually so does all the Council. She is concerned about the unreliability of drug testing in general and the invasion of pri- vacy. She said they all respect our employee-public very much but they carry the dual burden of having to redresent our constituents, too, and are going very cautiously as they should. She said she was anxious to hear what the eeployees have to tell them about solving any possible problee that could exist. Motion carried 5-0. 79 11. ~ OF BEER BY JAY~-~I~-5 N~ LIORS CLUB AT TILLER OAY$ FAIRE Councilman Edgar said that the Jaycees cooperatively with the Lions Club have requested to sell beer at the Tustin Tiller Days Faire and they can be under the Jaycee Umbrella National pollcy.
