Anaheim Hills. He reported on the new church they have formed in the Anaheim
Hills area and the main emphasis of their ministry. They have now entered
into a lease arrangement with Koll Company to move into the Koll Business
Center. They have applied for a CUP with the City and would appreciate a
favorable view of their CUP when it comes before the Council. They are
interested in being good community citizens and offer their help and
assistance to the City in any way they can.
Michael Blanco, representing the NOVA Group. As a representative of NOVA, he
respectfully requests that the Council appeal the court's decision on street
vending. It was a decision they felt was unconscionable and NOVA is fully
confident that the State Supreme Court will overturn the court's decision.
From reading local newspapers, there seems to be some confusion as to where
the Council stands. They would like to know if the Council plans to appeal
the matter to the State Supreme Court. They would like to see that the
ordinance passed by the Council be appealed to the Supreme Court and have it
resolved.
Fern Wilson, 200 E. Lincoln, Anaheim. She is again before the Council
regarding Claudina Street and wants to know if the study has been done to see
if Claudina can be changed back to a two-way street. She again relayed some
of the concerns and problems that have occurred since the street was changed
to one-way only.
John Lower, Traffic & Transportation Manager. Staff is in the process of
preparing the report. The intent is to bring it before the Senior Citizen's
Commission meeting on July 8 and hopefully coming out of that meeting with the
Commission's recommendations and subsequently returning to the Council perhaps
the third meeting in July.

agreement to March 31, 1998.
A31. 123: The Third Amendment to Agreement with ARA Services, authorizing
ARA to continue to provide food service at the Anaheim Convention Center was
submitted for consideration.
Bob Stefanski, 2300 Katella Avenue, Anaheim. As vice president of Ogden in
Anaheim, he would like the opportunity to submit a competitive bid for the
subject contract. Ogden's financial resources will allow them to make a bid
that will be competitive and of greater financial benefit to the City. He is
requesting that this item be postponed until they have time to prepare a
formal proposal and that the Council vote after seeing two proposals.
Mayor Daly asked if they have submitted a formal bid; Mr. Stefanski answered
no.
City Manager Ruth. This was negotiated with the existing lessee. Their lease
was up and as Council will recall, they gave two different extensions while
staff continued its negotiations. They attempted to tie the extension of this
lease into the lease at the Stadium so that in five years they would bid them
both out on a competitive basis. The City substantially improved its position
in the negotiations over the existing lease.
Later in the meeting, Mayor Daly stated especially on contracts such as this,
he supports an open bidding process. They have heard briefly from the City
Manager on the rationale for the extension. He believes five years is quite a
long time to extend a contract simply to put it on the same schedule as the
Stadium contract. He would like to ask the Council for a continuance to give
an opportunity to discuss this with staff in more detail. When they have a
proven firm who is interested in making a proposal, it is in the taxpayer's
interest to at least consider the proposal. Staff may have strong reasons for
continuing to recommend the present arrangement, but he feels it is in the
City's best interest to consider what Ogden has to propose.
MOTION: Council Member Feldhaus moved to continue this item for two weeks to
July 13, 1993. Council Member Daly seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Council Member Hunter asked to hear from Lynn
Thompson.
Lynn Thompson, General Manager, Convention Center. The contract term is
actually for three years with the right to allow it to go to the full five
year term. It is a three year period until the Stadium's contract period is
Up and then the City would have the right to bring ARA on unless the contract
would be abbreviated at that point. Provisions of the existing contract are
not as favorable to the City as the new arrangement and any delay would have a
certain amount of revenue impact on them. The previous contract had a
provision for negotiation at this time. The contract has expired as of
December 31 of last year. They have been negotiating in good faith with ARA
up until this point. They believe the contract terms are significantly more
favorable than the previous agreement in place.
Mayor Daly. The contract expired 6 months ago and he appreciates it may cost
money to delay by two weeks. The overriding concern he has is for open
bidding. He feels there are a lot of questions that need to be resolved.
466
City Hallt Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - JUNE 29, 1993 - 5=00 P.M.
Council Member Simpson. He does not have a problem with a competitive bid but
if all they are going to do now is get a proposal from Ogden when the terms of
the bid are known, he is not sure that is a "level playing field". If they
are going to require a competitive bid process with sealed bids, he could go
along with that.
Lynn Thompson. He reiterated, it was a contract provision in the previous
contract that they were to negotiate an extension in good faith and that is
what they have done as opposed to putting the contract back out to bid.
City Manager Ruth. There was a provision that only in the event they were not
performing would they not have the opportunity to renegotiate the contract.
On that basis, they proceeded with good faith negotiations and staff did a
commendable job in improving the City's position financially. ARA is putting
$500,000 worth of improvements in the concession operations. Secondly, in the
past agreement they were getting 10% of the net and in this operation the City
gets 100% of the net and ARA gets nothing. The City has improved itself in
terms of income, minimized its exposure and obtained substantial capital
improvements as a result of the renegotiated agreement.
Lynn Thompson. They are prepared to move forward with the architectural
design on improvements for the Convention Center based on the $500,000 advance
ARA would be making for those improvements. Representatives from ARA are
present today.
Additional discussion and questioning followed wherein the City Attorney
explained the reason the contract did not go out to competitive bid. There is
language in the current agreement with ARA which says the City at the
expiration of the current contract will negotiate in good faith with ARA
towards the extension of the agreement. At one point in time, the City
Council entered into a written agreement that provided that term. To avoid a
breach of that term, staff negotiated in good faith toward an extension. It
does not mean the City has to enter into that extension.
Mayor Daly. He suggested a continuance because he feels there are a lot of
questions about the rationale for a five year extension - three years plus two
- and some other aspects of the arrangement. He remains interested in what
other firms might be willing to provide the City and how they might get to
that point.
Council Member Simpson. If the motion is just to accept a proposal from
Ogden, he cannot accept that.
Mayor Daly. He is supporting a continuance and not that anything else be done
at this time until he can get more details regarding the rationale.
Council Member Hunter. The City entered into a contract in good faith with
ARA that there would be amendments. They have given the City $500,000 in
advance for capital improvements to the concessions. He understands
"competitive bid" but also further understands bargaining and entering into a
contract in good faith. That is what the City did with ARA and what the City
agreed to do. That was done. As Council Member Simpson said, because the
contract and terms of the contract are known publicly, it would be very unfair
to ARA, for Ogden, or anybody else to come in at this point. It would be
necessary to start the process all over. The issue is - the good faith
bargaining and what is the City doing at this point relative to that. He
feels it is good for the City. A different Council entered into a contract
sometime back and the City needs to hold up its end of the bargain. He is
467
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - JUNE 29, 1993 - 5=00 P.M.
opposed to any continuance. They ought to approve this because it is a valid
contract in good faith and they owe a duty to ARA.

A public hearing was held before the Council on June 9, 1993 where certain
actions were taken regarding the Disneyland Resort project with additional
actions taken at the adjourned meeting of June 15, 1993 (held June 22, 1993 -
see minutes those dates).
City Attorney Jack White. After the introduction of the three ordinances last
Tuesday, it was observed that there were certain minor typographical and
clerical errors in Ordinance No. 5378. Those have been corrected in the final
version of the ordinance supplied to the City Clerk. They do not affect the
substance of the ordinance and do not preclude the Council from acting on the
final ordinance tonight. In addition, there is one last correction due to a
computer error. Pages 350, 385 and 405 of the revised Specific Plan document
omitted certain language. Copies of the corrected pages have been provided
to the City Council. The corrected language did appear in the previous drafts
of the document but were inadvertently dropped out of the final version. That
document with that language added back in is in front of the Council this
evening. Council now has for its consideration the two resolutions and three
ordinances and the Council can act on all five of these matters at the same
time.

(HEIGHT REQUIREMENTS).
Before a vote was taken, Mayor Daly stated he intends to vote yes on all five.
He is convinced that the planning process which has brought them to this point
is one of the best planning processes the County has ever seen. Last week, he
thanked City staff and all the consultants who have worked so hard to bring
the process to this point. He again thanked everyone who worked so hard on
the Specific Plan, the General Plan Amendment and all the Zoning and
Development Standards. This truly, he believes, is state-of-the-art planning
and will result in a project that will be world renowned.
A Roll Call Vote was then taken on Resolution Nos. 93R-146 and 93R-147,
Ordinance Nos. 5377, 5378 and 5379.

and a major, major amount of work has gone into this major project.
A39. 000: 5:00 P.M. CONTINUED PUBLIC MEETING - TRANSPORTATION IMPACT AND
IMPROVEMENT FEES FOR NEW DEVELOPMENT:
To consider an ordinance authorizing collection of a Citywide Transportation
Impact and Improvement fee from new development as mandated by Measure M; and
a resolution selecting a 25% reduction in actual costs of new development
transportation impacts as the schedule of fees for the Citywide Transportation
470

Impact.and Improvement Program. This matter was continued from the meetings
of May 18, June 8 and June 22, 1993 to this date (see minutes those dates).
Previously submitted were reports dated May 18, 1993 and subsequent report
dated June 14, 1993 from the City Attorney in response to a request by the
Council for a review of the requirements of the law relative to the subject
fee which were discussed at the June 22, 1993 meeting.
At the conclusion of discussion of this item at the June 22, 1993 meeting, the
ordinance was introduced for first reading along with a direction to staff to
prepare an attachment to the resolution establishing baseline fees for each of
the four Growth Management Areas (GMA) for consideration in conjunction with
the adoption of the ordinance at this meeting.
Also submitted was report dated June 24, 1993 from Gary Johnson, Director of
Public Works recommending adoption of the proposed ordinance as well as the
resolution establishing a transportation impact and improvement fee for all
new development in the City of Anaheim based upon a 68% reduction of actual
costs.
John Lower, Traffic and Transportation Manager. The previous recommendation
was 25% reduction of actual costs. The current recommendation is a 68%
reduction. It results in a rental fee of $1.68 per square foot which when
compared with other cities with which Anaheim shares Growth Management Areas,
makes Anaheim higher than six, but less than nine. It is approximately in the
middle.
Mayor Daly. Compared to the prior recommendation, he asked how this compares
in terms of the proposal they talked about last week which was the lowest fee
in each of the four areas.
John Lower. He has laid that out as an alternative for consideration (see
report dated June 24, 1993, pages 2 and 3). With that, he indicated the
concerns of staff. One is they would have four fees to administer in
different parts of town leading to potential developer confusion as well as
having a higher fee in Growth Management Area 3, or $3.30 per square foot of
retail. In that area, it will be slightly higher than the baseline fees, but
looking at the Growth Management Area jurisdictions in total, most of those
cities are higher than the baseline.
Further discussion and questioning followed relative to specifics of the
recommendation during which Mr. Lower explained that Measure M requires cities
to adopt a fee program so that development pays a share of the transportation
improvements needed to accommodate that new development. The Maintenance of
Effort is something different not associated with the fee program. That
involves General Fund expenditure~ on tran~Dortation improv~ment~ which cannot
be financed by Measure M dollars. He also confirmed if approved, they will be
adopting the entire vertical column in Table 1 of the June 24, 1993 memo
(first attachment). However, anything in a development agreement does not
pay, and qualified low income housing does not pay the fee. He clarified for
Council Member Feldhaus that OCTA is only concerned that a fee program be
established. The amount of the fee is not a concern. He emphasized that it
was urgent that action be taken tonight and documents signed to meet the next
day deadline.
Council Member Feldhaus offered Ordinance No. 5380 for adoption, adding

intending to testify at any or all of the public hearings including staff be
sworn in at this time.
Those testifying were requested to stand by the City Clerk and asked to raise
their right hand. The oath was then given.
Before continuing, Mayor Daly announced that there has been a request for
continuance on Public Hearing Item D2, relating to the proposed self-service
car wash facility at 2880 East Lincoln Avenue. He surmises that there are a
number of p~opl~ pr~nt for that item. H~ a~k~d th~ City Attorney to advi~
the Council on the best approach since people have attended an anticipation of
a decision on Item D2 and the request for a two-week continuance was not
received from the applicant, Ron Johnson, until today or late yesterday; the
City Clerk confirmed it was received yesterday afternoon. (It was at this
point that Item D2 was subsequently continued. See discussion leading to the
continuance under Item D2.)
D1. 164: CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - ESTABLISHMENT OF THE LEMON STREET
DRAINAGE AREA AND A DRAINAGE AREA FEE OF $7,150 PER ACRE:
To consider a resolution for the establishment of the Lemon Street Drainage
Area and adopting a fee of $7,150 per acre. The original public hearing was
held on May 18, 1993 where testimony was received from both staff, proponents
475
City Hall, Anahe£m, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - JUNE 29, 1993 - 5:00 P.M.
and opponents of the formation of the Assessment District (see minutes that
date). Subsequently, at the conclusion of testimony, the Council continued
the public hearing to this date requesting of staff historical background
relative to the formation of such districts as well as specific information
relating to the Pacific Drive-In Theatre request.
Previously submitted was report dated May 11, 1993 from Gary Johnson, Director
of Public Works/City Engineer recommending that the Council by resolution
approve the establishment of the Lemon Street Drainage Assessment Area and
adopting a fee of $7,150 per acre. An additional 6-page report was submitted
by Mr. Johnson dated June 22, 1993 and also a 6-page report from the City
Attorney dated June 25, 1993, each giving detailed information as requested by
the Council.
PUBLIC NOTICE REQUIREMENTS MET BY:
Publication in Anaheim Bulletin - March 25, April 1 and April 8, 1993
Russ Maguire, Deputy City Engineer. He summarized the data and information
contained in report dated June 22, 1993, specifically information on city-wide
policy relating to the Master Plan for drainage, how many districts have been
formed since 1974 and the fee per acre, the history of the Pacific Drive-In
~heatre site and the reason and necessity for installing the new storm drain
and the process for collecting reimbursement from the City of Fullerton for
the 4 acres (5 parcels) located in that City.
He concluded that the district the Council is considering tonight only enacts
the ability to recover from development within the City of Anaheim and any
arrangement to recover from the 4 acres in Fullerton would be a matter between
the developer and the City of Fullerton. Staff's recommendation continues to
be that the Council approve the establishment of the Lemon Street Drainage
area and accept a fee of $7,150 per acre.
Mayor Daly. He asked to hear from anyone who wished to speak to the subject,

He represents Pacific Theatres and is present to answer any
They are hopeful that they will have a favorable response from the
Mr. Jerry Knudsen. He is appearing on behalf of R.S. Mike Hoyt, Brian
Industrial Properties and Lemon Associates, owners of 30 acres in the proposed
Lemon Street Drainage Assessment Area. Written protests have been signed by
owners of more than one-half the area of the property. He then gave an
extensive presentation elaborating on the reasons why they oppose and protest
the formation of the assessment area and fee (also see minutes of May 18,
1993) among which - no notice or justification was ever given on the proposed
installation or charge before the pipe (drain) was installed, there was no way
to anticipate from the original conditional use permit granting the drive-in
theatre that the pipe would be installed and the adjoining owners charged for
it. If so, the affected property owners would have opposed the original CUP.
To their knowledge, no property in the area is subject to flooding with the
exception of the Pacific Drive-In Theatre property and there is no basis for
this significant assessment for a drain that benefits primarily the drive-in
theatre property. The runoff in water will not increase the need for storm
drain capacity, all the property except for Northrop is developed and paved,
any increase in building size will not add to the run off, no developed
property should be subject to the assessment or be said to necessitate
476
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - JUNE 29, 1993 - 5:00 P.M.
improvgment, there is no right on the part of Pacific Theatres to be
reimbursed. Mr. White answered the question of Council Member Pickler at the
last hearing by stating in his June 25, 1993 opinion, "no agreement currently
exists between the City and Pacific which would require the City to impose the
fees or reimburse Pacific for any of its costs incurred in construction of the
improvement". In concluding his presentation, he stated they respectfully
submit that the resolution should be denied.
Richard Carter, 1381 Maplewood Place, 8rea, Engineer for Brian Industrial
Properties. If the Council passes the resolution, will the fees when they
become payable also have interest accrued, will there be a cost-of-living
index applied or will it be $7,150 an acre no matter what.
Russ Maguire. The fee established is the fee - it is a flat fee.
City Attorney White. The fee is payable only to the extent that any new
development increases the square footage of development on the property in the
same proportion as the total acreage of the property. If there is a 100,000
square foot building on a 10 acre lot and it is proposed to build another
100,000 square foot building on that same lot or expand the size of the
existing building by another 100,000 square feet doubling the size, they would
pay 50% of the total acreage fee because one-half of the total building area
is already in existence. It is only due upon subdivision or development. If
the property is not further subdivided and no additional building construction
occurs, then no fee is payable now or in the future.
Richard Carter. They already have paved property - the building is in
existence. It would not increase the runoff. He does not understand why the
square footage would trigger that.
City Attorney White. The confusion may be the fact that the fee is triggered
by development, does not mean that the development may be the cause of the
flooding that necessitated the improvement. The Master Plan of drainage
adopted before the current development being discussed came into existence
contemplated this facility was necessary for drainage in the entire area to
support the entire drainage area. It has nothing to do with anticipating
whether a particular building was going to be aligned in a way to cause more
or less runoff, but saying there was a problem in existence and this facility
was needed to alleviate that problem. The only mechanism under the law to
trigger the payment is either subdivision under State law, or by a City
adopting its own ordinance to supplement that development through a building
permit. Further, they are not assessing any development that occurred before
1974 or any development that occurred before the district was formed which may
be tonight. Anything in existence does not necessitate the payment of that
fee. Only new development has to pay any fee or a subdivision and only on
additional square footage.
Mayor Daly closed the public hearing.
City Attorney White. There does appear to be a majority protest by a majority
of the property within the district. Therefore, it would be necessary for the
Council to adopt the resolution before them that does include a finding that
the public interest and convenience require the improvements and overruling
the protest. In order to adopt that, it would require a 4/5ths vote of the
Council. Since tonight only four Council Members are present, it would take a
unanimous vote. If there is one less vote, the matter would have to be
continued for full Council action.

See staff report to the Planning Commission dated April 19, 1993.
As the Mayor explained at the outset of the public hearings, a request has
been received from the agent for the applicant for a two-week continuance.
city Attorney White. Answering the Mayor, he recommends that the Council
grant the request to afford due process to the applicant. One reasonable
request to continue ~hould be Granted before the hearing is held. In thi~
case, it is one of those situations which is uncomfortable for the Council
because a large number of residents who wish to testify are present to do so
at the public hearing. It is not to anyone's benefit including those who are
opponents to proceed in the absence of the applicant only to find out that the
courts would reverse the decision and require another hearing. He would
suggest that the public hearing be continued for two-weeks and all testimony
taken at that time.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - JUNE 29, 1993 - 5~00 P.M.
Annika'Santalahti, Zoning Administrator. The applicant has hired an architect
who is taking a look at the property and development proposal. Staff will be
meeting with them to review the proposal. He has already suggested a number
of changes and that is basically the reason for the continuance - to eliminate
some of the waivers and to consider some of the options that were proposed at
the Planning Commission hearing. She has not seen the final drawings.
Mayor Daly. He asked for a show of hands of those people who were present to
testify; approximately nine people were present. He (Daly) asked if the City
Attorney's recommendation was clear or if anyone has a question as to the
rationale to have it clarified at this time. The Council is inclined to
follow the direction of the City Attorney on land use decisions such as this.
He asked if anyone wished to come forward to represent the homeowners group.
Dale Bradford. There are a considerable number of people present. Several
cut their vacations short just to be present. They are very concerned about
the proposed car wash and are prepared fully to defend their rights as
citizens. They did not receive notice until a week ago, Friday. It is unfair
that the residents are present but the applicant is not.
After a brief discussion between the Mayor and Mr. Bradford, it was confirmed
that the residents would not be renotified but by the Council's action tonight
in granting the continuance if they do so, the continued public hearing will
be held Tuesday, July 13, 1993 at 6:00 p.m. and it will be the first public
hearing on that date.
MOTION: Council Member Daly moved to continue the public hearing on
Conditional Use Permit No. 3592 to Tuesday, July 13, 1993 at 6:00 p.m. and it
will be the first public hearing on that date. Council Member Simpson
seconded the motion. Council Member Pickler was absent. MOTION CARRIED.
Council Member Hunter. He will be absent on that date, but if he was present,
he would be voting to deny the permit. He wants to go on record that whoever
is representing these people (car wash applicant) has misrepresented many
things. That person called his (Hunter's) law office and he was told to stop
calling. He then called the City Clerk's Office and was adamant that he had a
2:00 o'clock appointment with him (Hunter) which was a lie. He does not like
or appreciate people calling his office harassing and lying to him and lying
to the City Clerk.

C2. COUNCIL COMMENTS:
114: PARKING AND TRAFFIC - ANAHEIM ARENA:
Mayor Daly. He asked the City Manager to briefly comment on the parking and
traffic situation at the newly opened Anaheim Arena and what action steps are
being taken.
City Manager Ruth. City staff is working closely with Ogden staff trying to
mitigate those concerns. A task force is working on it daily. They have
identified several mediation measures they are in the process of implementing
and are studying some physical improvements to be made at the intersection of
Katella and Douglass. They hope to be able to implement those changes
quickly. They are also negotiating with some additional property adjacent to
the Arena and have a considerable amount of data already compiled. They are
also looking at more extensive training and better signage. Between Police
Chief Molloy and his traffic operation and the Ogden people, they will be
resolving many of the issues quickly. Basically, it is the first time people
have been to the Arena. As they become more acclimated to the area, some of
the problems will resolve themselves. They are putting together an action
plan right now with time frames. They expect to have something back to the
Council the first of July.
ADJOURNMENT: By General Consent the meeting was adjourned. (6:55 p.m.)
No quorum is anticipated for Tuesday, July 6, 1993 due to the July 4 weekend
holiday schedule.
