`EUREAS, the city Council of the Oi.ty of Anaheim is
now having a zoning survey made and is making studies preparatory
to the adoption of precise and comprehensive zoning plans for the
City of Anaheim and the adoption of a zoning ordinance containing
precise and detailed zoning regulations to be applied in the in-
corporated area of said City and the City Council has employed a
planning engineer in city zoning and planning to make a survey of
zoning and planning in the City of Anaheim and to make a detailed
report to the City Council of his findings and recommendations and
that upon the completion of said survey and zoning studies now
being made by said planning engineer under the direction of the
City Council and in co-operation of the City Planning Commission,
that it is the intention of the City Council to adopt comprehensive
zoning plans and a comprehensive zoning ordinance for the incor-
porated area of the City of Anaheim in the manner prescribed by
law; that said City Council hereby further finds that owing to the
territorial extent of said City and the diversity of interest
therein and the necessity of making maps and special studies and
a thorough analysis of all of the factors in the - pr eparation of s
comprehensive zoning plans, considerable time will necessarily
elapse before said survey can be completed ind said zoning plans
completed and that certain regulations of an interim nature are
necessary to be adopted at this time in order to protect the pub-
lic interest, health, comfort and oonvenience and to I reserve the
public health, peace and welfare pending the preparation of the
adopting of said zoning ordinance; and

WHMEAS, the City Council finds that with the present
rate of development within the City there is the possibility of
the presentation of maps and plans for a new subdivision with an
area of lots not in conformity with the standards which it is
contemplated will be established in the comprehensive zoning plans
and ordinance of the City of Anaheim and which will be at var i anc e
with the general standard of improvements now existing in that cer-
tain area hereinafter described; and
IMMEAS , the City Council further finds that the
regulations and provisions hereinafter set forth in this Ordinance
are necessary for and are designed to lessen congestion in the
areas and streets; to secure safety from fire and other dangers;
to pr event overcrowding of land; to avoid undue concentration of
population; to facilitate the adequate provision for distributi6n
of water and discharge of sewage, and the installation of other
pu'clic improvements, and
that such provisions
and regulations
have
been made with reasonable
consideration among
other things of
the
character of the district and its peculiar suitability for the
particular uses, and with a view of conserving property values
and encouraging t"Re most appropriate use of land throughout the
area, and in consideration of the direction of planning develop-
ment according to a well considered plan.
