164: SEWER ~ND STORM D~AIN FEES FOR THE SOUTH CENTRAL /~RE& OF
ANAHEIM:
Gary Johnson, Director of Public Works and City Engineer introduced Mr. Russ
Maguire, Deputy City Engineer to give today's presentation.
Mr. Russ Maguire, Deputy City Engineer. This is preliminary to the public
hearing before the City Council to be held March 28, 1995. For the benefit of
the new Council Members, he first gave the history and background relative to
the sewer and storm drain needs for the South Central Area, what actions the
Council has taken thus far leading to the proposed action to establish sewer
and storm drain impact and improvement feeg for new and expanded development
within the South Central Area of Anaheim. (See draft of report dated March 3,
1995 - discue~i0n portion, which was briefed by Mr. Maguire. Ales ese
previous documents - Sanitary Sewer and Storm Drain Financial Implementation
Plan for the South Central City Area prepared by CH2M Hill dated August, 1994,
South Central Area Sewer Deficiency Study, first revision, dated January, 1993
and Master Plan of Drainage for the South Central Area, First Revision dated
February, 1993 - made a part of the record.)
In concluding, Mr. Maguire summarized his presentation. The Master Plan of
Drainage and the Sewer Deficiency Studies were the documents that determined
the needs and deficiencies of the area. The financial implementation program
provided the nexus and fair share participation for any individual development
that would occur to be used to go over into a fee program. The mitigation
monitoring programs of all the environmental documents of the specific plan
d~ctated that they had to find a methodology in order to mitigate those
131
C~TY OF ANAHE~H~ CALiFORNiA - COUI~C~L ~NUTE8 - MARCH L4, L995
problems of deficiencies or needs. The Anaheim Resort Program put together an
overall program of how to address those which included fair share
participation fees getting down to what is being discussed today which are
ordinances and resolutions to establish, on an area-wide basis, the fair share
fee that any development would pay directly related to its impact on those
facilities and become a partner in the Anaheim Resort Program. The ordinances
and resolutions are consistent with the Anaheim program and also the Tarsadia
program. He reiterated, the public hearing on the issue will be held
March 28, 1995.
Questions were then posed by Council Members for purposes of clarification
which were answered by both Mr. Maguire and Mr. Johnson.

135
C?T¥ OF AN~%HE'rM~ c~'rFORN?A - COUNC'rL H'rNUTE8 - Iq~RCH L4~ 1995
in what they are proposing to do in this matter but is asking that the Council
strongly consider taking some of the political stigma out of changing people
on boards and commissions. At every general election when there is a
Possibility of changing members on the Council, the Council should set up an
automatic resignation system so that every member of every city board and
commission serving at the pleasure of the Council have automatic resignations
and have that understood by those individuals. Then the new Council, without
Political stigma, can accept the resignations they choose to and keep those
individuals they wish to reappoint. He also.suggests that since the City has
so many boards, commissions and committees, that they look at which ones are
really still necessary. Relative to the Budget Advisory Commission, he favors
the idea of reducing the size. This item was continued for one week as
requested by the City Manager.
This item was continued for one week.
Al0. 1235 Approving two Joint Use Agreements $SER 63531A and SER 63532A with

Stadium, effective February 1, 1995, at a cost of $675 per monthi and
authorizing the Stadium General Manager to execute future renewals of said
agreement.
Council Member Lopez Posed questions on this item for purposes of
clarification which were answered by Greg Smith, General Manager of Anaheim
Stadium.
A12. 123~ Approving District Cooperative Agreement No. 12-233 with the
California Department of Transportation for design of the Weir Canyon
Road/Yorba Linda Boulevard Widening project
A13. 123= Approving the Fifth Amendment to Agreement with Eberhart and
Stone, Inc., for geotechnical services Pertaining to the Santiago Landslide.
Mayor Pro Tem Feldhaus. He again expressed his concern that the Council has
not yet received a report from the geologist but are being asked to approve
another $250,000. He also continues to hear that 40,000 gallons of water a
day are still being pumped out of the area. Before he approves this item, he
wants to receive the report that has been promised.
City Attorney Jack White. His understanding is that the City anticipates
getting the report this week or at least this month. He believes it will be
received as early as tomorrow. As the Council knows, the matter is in
litigation. The report was done at the request and under the auspices of the
City Attorney's Office. He explained what the report will cover. When it is
received, he will share it with the Council. He does not intend at this point
for it to be a public report until after having a chance to analyze and share
it with the Council and determine the next steps to be taken. If the Council
is unwilling to vote in favor of the contract amendment tonight, he would
136
CITY OF A1TAHEIMv CALIFORNIA - COUNCIL HINUTE8 - MARCH 14v 1995
recommend the item be continued until next week since the Charter requires
three affirmative votes for an order to pay money.
This item was continued to the meeting of March 21, 1995.
A14. 156= Authorizing the transfer of ownership of retired police canine
'Robbie" to his former handler, Officer James Reed.
A15. 123= To consider waiving Council Policy 401 and approving a Second
Amendment to Agreement with Deloitte & Touche LLP, for an amount not to exceed
$20,000 plus reimbursable expenses not to exceed $3,000 for professional
consulting services, and to evaluate the economic benefits to Anaheim of
having a professional baseball franchise in the City.
Phil Knypstra, 2520 Gelid Avenue, Anaheim. He feels there is a strong
tendency in Anaheim to rush to a professional consultant to take care of all
problems. Anaheim has been in the baseball business for twenty-five years and
during that time should have built up enough expertise and knowledge to do its
own cost-benefit analysis without spending another $23,000.
Later in the meeting, Mr. Knypstra also noted that the contract states the
City will be reimbursed, but it is going to be paid for with Public Utility's
funds. 'The Public Utilities Department is a separate autonomous entity. He
asked if the City gets reimburse, does the City always in every circumstance
reimburse the Public Utilities for their money.
City Manager Ruth. If costs are incurred by the Public Works Department, that
department would be reimbursed for those costs. If incurred by the Public
Utilities Department, the Utilities would receive that money. They are part
of the City and not a separate entity. Their account would be reimbursed if
that money was spent out of the Utility's account.
A16. 114= RESOLUTION NO. 95R-39: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM AMENDING AND RESTATING THE PROCEDURES AND RULES OF ORDER FOR
THE CONDUCT OF CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS.

$1.90 flag for the first 1/6th mile.
$0.30 per each additional 1/6th mile.
$22.00 per hour waiting time and..t~affic delay.
Submitted was report dated March 14, 1995 from the Code Enforcement Division
recommending that the Council approve the requested fare increases.
Council Member Lopez. He asked staff for information on surrounding cities
such as Buena Park, Fullerton and Garden Grove relative to their rates.
Yellow cab is proposing an idling time of $22 an hour which is higher than
some larger cities. He knows that may be due to the fact that there are many
people coming into the Disneyland area. His concern especially revolves
around senior citizens who have to utilize taxi service and their limited
ability to pay for such service. He is not ready to move forward with this
increase tonight.
Council Member Tait. He agrees with Council Member Lopez and would like more
information on the rate increase. He would favor a one week continuance.
Mayor Pro Tem Feldhaus. He did not agree. Mr. Slagle of Yellow Cab is the
operator of the business and he knows what it costs to operate. He asked to
hear from Mr. Slagle.

C~TY OF ~(~BLHE~K~ C,,~FORN~A - COUNCIL XlNUTE8 - MARCH
Larry Slagle, Yellow Cab Company of Northern Orange County. He is agreeable
to a continuance of one week for full Council action. As indicated in his
application, it has been five years since he has been before the Council to
ask for an increase. The Council is the governing body according to State
law. The cost of inflation over that period is in excess of the increase
being requested. They were a 'non-profit' organization last year and may be
again this year. They have purposely increased the distance for the flag.
The increase will not really have a full impact until hitting the lO-mile
break which means people taking short trips, the seniors and others, will get
a break and the people taking the longer trips will help pay for the shorter
trips. He would be happy to meet with any of the Council Members or provide
additional input. He assumes that Council Member Lopez also talked to the
Code Enforcement Manager, Mr. Pools as well. This standard rate has been
approved by every City in Orange County this side of Laguna Beach - Fullerton,
Garden Grove, Cypress, Orange, etc. Yellow Cab is a "target" company. Their
insurance rates and costs have gone up. He proceeded to explain why and cited
specifically claims, insurance, litigated claims, fuel, etc. He also
explained the many improvements and upgrades they have made to their business.
In concluding, he stated the increase is justified and he would be happy to
meet with Mr. Pools and his group to answer any questions.
John Pools, Code EnforcementManager. Answering Mayor Pro Tem Feldhaus, he
stated that WeSt Coast Cab, the City's other taxi service, has informed them
they are proposing to increase their rates to the same amount. Staff has
contacted a number of cities that Mr. Slagle's firm contracts with to provide
taxi service. It is his understanding they are going to ask for those same
rates. Staff found that most, if not all, of those cities have already
increased their rates to what Mr. Slagle is proposing in Anaheim. They will
be happy to meet with Mr. Slagle but need more direction on exactly what
information the Council wants more than what has been provided.
Additional discussion followed between Council Member Lopez and Mr. Slagle
especially revolving around Council Member Lopez's concern with seniors being
able to afford taxi service since for many it is their only means of
transportation.
Council Member Tait. He would llke to see a break down of the different costs
that have increased since the last rate increase.
Mr. Pools stated they can do that and also meet with Mr. Slagle and bring that
information back next week.
MOTION~
Council Member Lopez moved to continue the subject request for a rate
adjustment for Yellow Cab Company for one week. Council Member Tait
seconded the motion. Council Member Zemel and Mayor Daly were
absent. MOTION CARRIED.
C2. COUNCIL COMMBNTB:
114= CITY'S POLICY REGARDING REPLACEMENT OF SIDEWALK~, REMOVAL
OF TREES AND SEWER DANAGE=
council Member Lopez. He would like the Council to revisit the City's policy
on repair, removal and replacement of sidewalks and trees in the older part of
Anaheim basically from Knott Avenue, all the way to the riverbed and actually
all the way to Imperial. In those areas, the sidewalks are starting to come
142
CITY OF ANAHEIX~ CALIFORNIA - COUNCIL HINUTES - MARCH 14~ 1995
up and the trees are growing. He dealt with that problem last year and was
told the City has a policy not to replace sidewalks or remove trees. In his
case, the tree roots broke through the sewer lines. It seems to him if the
City can afford to spend thousands of dollars for consultants to determine if
there is a need for a new Stadium and increase the size of the Convention
Center, they can take care of the needs that impact citizens.
Mayor Pro Tem Feldhaus suggested that the appropriate staff people from street
maintenance reportto the council next Tuesday and give an overview of their
schedules - how they schedule and prioritize such matters.
City Manager Ruth. They will be happy to do so, the subject issues were a
casualty of the cutbacks over the last four or five years. Staff will be
happy to revisit the matter and come back to the Council with a report
regarding the policy.
Council Member Lopez asked that it a18o include replacement/repair of sewer
damage.
