A complete copy of the agenda for the meeting of the Anaheim City Council was
posted at 3:25 p.m. on October 18, 1991, at the Civic Center kiosk, containing
all items as shown herein.
Mayor Pro Tem Ehrle called the workshop portion of the meeting of October 22,
1991, to order at 3:02 p.m.
City Manager James Ruth introduced the first presentation to be made by Mr. Ken
Delino, Executive Director of OCCAA (Orange County Cities Airport Authority)
and staff person, SCAG (Southern California Association of Governments) with
opening comments by Councilman Hank Weeda, City of Yorba Linda.
173: PRESENTATION - AIRPORT AUTHORITY: Hank Weeda, Councilman, City of Yorba
Linda and Chairman, SCAG Aviation Work Program Committee. He commented first
on SCAGS role in the process. SCAG is the MPO for the area and, also has been
designated by the FAA (Federation Aviation Administration) as their agent in
Southern California responsible for aviation matters. SCAG recognized many
years ago that there are significant problems in the area of aviation
particularly relative to airports, and specifically the ability of existing
airports to meet the future passenger demand based upon forecast of population
growth within the six county area of Southern California. He recounted the
past history relating to aviation needs and the major study of airports in
Southern California undertaken in the early 1980s'. The study showed that
there was a significant problem, and one of the recommendations was that a
Southern California Regional Airport Authority should be formed. The current
members of that authority are the City of Los Angeles, County of Los Angeles,
County of San Bernardino and County of Riverside but Orange County has been
missing because they have always declined to join. A number of Orange County
cities decided to form the Orange County Cities Airport Authority (OCCAA) which
a number of cities joined and a number elected not to join. After going
through a number of studies, he believes SCAG has an answer to the County's
aviation needs - the E1 Toro Marine Corps Air Station will be closing in a few
years and SCAG has determined that to be the best site for a new commercial
airport. He then introduced Mr. Ken Delino. The presentation today will
7OO
City Hallt Anaheimt California - COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 22~ 1991t 5=00 P.M.
illustrate what they are doing and why they believe that E1 Toro is the best
place to locate a commercial airport.
Mr. Ken Delino, Deputy City Manager, Newport Beach, Executive Director of OCCAA
and staff person at SCAG. He gave an extensive presentation which was
supplemented by slides. Passenger demand in Orange County in 1987 was 10.9
million expected to grow to 23 million in 2010. John Wayne Airport is
constrained by a limit of 8.4 million passengers and all studies agree it can
never satisfy the demand. Every agency, group or study indicates it is
necessary to create a new airport facility which can serve 30 million people.
Since that large a 'footprint' cannot be accommodated in Orange County, they
looked at something smaller - an airport that could serve 6 to 12 million
passengers. John Wayne and another airport could then satisfy 70 to 75% of the
projected demand with the remaining 20 to 25% using LAX and Ontario Airport.
Many groups looked at many different sites and it was finally decided there is
only one site remaining worthy of further study - the E1 Toro US Marine Corps
Air Station site. Mr. Delino then briefed the technical and environmental
issues involved specifically noise issues. He briefed present landing and take
off patterns at both John Wayne Airport and E1 Toro Airport showing in each no-
home zones (no residential development because of noise intrusion) and noise
irritation zones. He then superimposed the zones at John Wayne Airport over
the E1 Toro site/zones which, if converted to a commercial airport, according
to the presentation, would result in no noise impact in the zones illustrated
whereas impact now exists. His presentation also covered roadway access,
future transit access to the E1 Toro site, the concept of induced development
and the fact that because there will be so much growth as a result of buildout
of the Irvine Spectrum, the airport will be placing a service next to where
people are. Relative to air quality emissions, he explained an airport
attracts traffic but does not generate it and that ultimately there will be air
quality benefits.
At the conclusion of his presentation, Council Members posed questions answered
by both Mr. Delino and Mr. Weeda - in terms of County deliberations, they are
looking to joining the Regional Airport Authority which is positive. Ail sites
have been looked at and specifically Los Alamitos and Camp Pendleton. Ail of
the sites were considered and all arguments presented. The committee which
Mr. Weeda chairs has many aviation professionals. Their conclusion was, the
only possibility left is E1 Toro. Currently, the way the funding is set up, if
FAA was broached and asked to study a site, FAA is going to indicate the only
site that can be studied is E1 Toro because SCAG has taken the lead in that
regard. Relative to other Cities joining, the hope is that they will do so
since it is important that there be dialogue on the issues. In the absence of
Orange County being a member, OCCAA has requested membership in the Regional
Authority. The Regional Authority has invited Orange County on three or four
occasions over the years to join but Orange County consistently says no.
Council Member Pickler. He referred to a letter received today by the Council
from Supervisor Tom Riley in which he referred to the Regional Airport
Authority and mentions the request is currently under staff review and will be
presented to the Board of Supervisors before the end of the year. 'He will
701
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 22, 1991, 5=00 P.M.
support joining the authority to ensure Orange County's interests are properly
represented.'
Mayor Pro Tem Ehrle asked if anyone else wished to speak before going on to the
next portion of the workshop.
Mr. Bill Mecham, consultant, CRAS (Coalition For a Responsible Airport
Solution). There are several communities within the County that have found
themselves having to respond to the activities of the OCCAA. He referred to
letter of October 18, 1991, just submitted attached to which were a number of
resolutions passed in the last 30 days by ten Orange County cities, the only
ten he has contacted thus far, and passed unanimously. The resolutions state
they are opposed to the OCCAA representing Orange County on any official body.
They are directed to the Southern California Regional Airport Authority with
the intent of urging that body to reject OCCAA as a representative of Orange
County. He thereupon briefed the Council on the reasons for their opposition.
They have been told today that OCCAA represents 35% of the County and six
cities. Santa Aha has not had a representative at a meeting in the past year
which takes away a great deal of the 35%. The group has also been extremely
selective on how they have offered membership. OCCAA is an organization that
is designed and supported by the City of Newport Beach. They go into their
presentations with a three-legged stool - Ken Delino from the City of Newport
Beach, Hank Weeda from the City of Yorba Linda and Irv Pickler from the City of
Anaheim, and they all bring their impacts. They do not disagree with any of
the issues, but do disagree with this body being the body that does it. They
support the Board of Supervisors and urge them to join the Southern California
Regional Airport Authority. They believe that is what should happen and if any
other body, it should be the League of Cities.
He is present today to say that the organization has perhaps served a purpose
in some ways and forced the Board of Supervisors to join the Southern
California Regional Airport Authority. However, they are a negative influence
in many ways. If the issue is to be addressed, it should be through a body
that can address it, i.e., the Board of Supervisors and if there is to be
discussion it should be through the League of Cities. He is here today with
Council Member Joe Anderson from the City of San Clemente, Marsha Rudolph from
the newly incorporated City of Lake Forest and Dayle Williams, Golden Rain
Foundation of Leisure World.
Joe Anderson, Mayor Pro Tem, City of San Clemente. Their City was one that
passed a resolution requesting that the Southern California Regional Airport
Authority not accept the OCCAA as the Orange County Representative on the
Authority's Board of Directors. Their community is very concerned that the
Authority's position on issues pertaining to the siting of a new regional
airport facility is ill-advised and misrepresented. San Clemente had spent
approximately $50,000 fighting what was to everybody involved except OCCAA an
ill-conceived idea in proposing the Christianetos site behind the City of San
Clements as an airport site. They do not feel that OCCAA has demonstrated
through their actions the right to represent any of them. He is certain he is
speaking for a majority of the Council Members in asking that Anaheim remove
itself from OCCAA.
702
City Hall, Anaheimt California - COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 22t 1991~ 5:00 P.M.
Marsha Rudolph, Council Person Elect, newly-formed City of Lake Forest. She
has been involved in the airport issue for 3 or 4 years. OCCAA under its prior
and under its present name has been an irritant to getting on with the
process. The City of Lake Forest would be extremely heavily damaged by any
change in the status of E1 Toro Marine Corps Air Station either by Joint use or
full commercial use. Ten cities in South Orange County have joined together
with the unincorporated organizations of the Saddleback Area Coordinating
Council and Leisure World Golden Rain Foundation to state to the Southern
California Regional Airport Authority to not recognize OCCAA as representative
of Orange County. They have sent copies to the Board of Supervisors asking
them to become the representative and if not, the League of Cities. It is
their general consensus that there is not a site in Orange County and the best
use of their efforts instead of fighting an organization like OCCAA would be to
put those efforts into rapid transit and perhaps into an offsite ticketing
station that would make access to the current existing airports and those that
may be planned for the near future the viable option.
Bill Mecham. They do have other items that could be brought forth to
technically refute what was presented earlier, but he has asked Mr. Williams to
hold back on that today. There are impacts relative to E1 Toro that are not
being talked about. Their position is firm - 10 cities, 50 votes; they do not
believe OCCAA is the right group at the right time and they are asking for the
Council's help.
Mayor Pro Tem Ehrle. This is a workshop session for the purpose of information
gathering. If the Council would like to bring the issue up at a later date for
an official action, the groups will be notified. He thanked everyone for
coming and for the presentations made.
173: PRESENTATION - ORANGE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY: Mr. Brian
Pearson, Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA). He submitted hard copy
packets of his presentation entitled, 'Long Range Transit System Plan and
Development Strategy - Orange County Transportation Authority, County-wide Rail
Study' and briefed the graphs and charts contained therein. A set of
recommendations (which he reviewed) was presented to OCTA on September 12,
1991. The Authority authorized them to take the draft plan out for public
review which they have been doing for the past several weeks. He then briefed
some of the feedback they received from the public as well as the public
opinion poll they conducted and briefed the Council on what they are going to
be recommending to the Authority on October 28, 1991. They wanted to give the
Council an opportunity to look at those recommendations today. He then briefed
the Council on the Measure M expenditure plan - how the funds would be
allocated, the four top priorities being freeway projects, regional street and
road projects, local street and road projects and transit projects with seven
sub projects under the transit portion the bulk being committed to rail
projects. His presentation covered County-wide rail study goals, conceptual
alternatives, alternatives evaluation characteristics, existing rail route
productivity, alternatives evaluation results, elements of the master plan
recommendations (express bus corridors, commuter rail services, urban rail
networks). He also explained a change in one of the recommendations different
from the handout material relative to the rail plan on how best to connect to
the Los Angeles Metro Rail System. Having completed the community
703
City Hallt Anaheimt California - COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 22~ 1991, 5=00 P.M.
participation and their public opinion poll, there was strong support for rail
transit and for developing such a system in Orange County. They expect the
Transportation Authority to adopt the plan on Monday, October 28, 1991, that
would include the express bus commuter rail and urban rail components and
suggest they move ahead on these elements and begin the detailed planning of
the initial urban rail lines before making a decision perhaps within 18-months
as to where the first line should be constructed and how extensive it should
be.
Mr. Pearson's presentation was followed by questions by Council Members.
At the conclusion of questions, Mayor Pro Tem Ehrle thanked Mr. Pearson for
bringing the Council up-to-date on the status of the plan.

A36. 000: 5=00 P.M. HEARING - REVISED PARKING FEES AT ANAHEIM STADIUM=
To consider revising the parking fees at Anaheim Stadium.
Submitted was report dated October 22, 1991, from the Stadium General Manager,
Greg Smith recommending that the Council increase the parking fee for
California Angel's Baseball games and all other general events from $4.00 to
$5.00 effective immediately.
City Attorney Jack White introduced the hearing noting that such a hearing is
required when fees are proposed to be revised giving the public an opportunity
to speak.
Mayor Hunter opened the hearing and asked to hear from anyone who wished to
speak to the proposed increase in parking fees at the Anaheim Stadium; there
being no response, he closed the hearing.
Greg Smith, Stadium General Manager answered questions posed by Council Member
Daly. The fee increase was incorporated in the Stadium's fiscal year 1991/92
budget and it is a part of the existing budget and the revenues to be
generated are anticipated. The last increase in parking fees was in the 1989
season and, therefore, the Angels have played three seasons under the old fee
of $4.00. Prior to 1989, it was $3.00 for five or six years. The Angels are
aware of the proposed increase; the lease agreement with the Angels requires
their consent, and that consent has been given.

A38. 175: CARTER HAWLEY HAL~ BA~q~RUPTCY SETTLEMENT OFFER= Submitted was
report dated October 21, 1991, from the Public Utilities General Manager
recommending the approval of a settlement offer made by Z/C Subsidiary
Corporation to purchase the City of Anaheim's creditor claim in the subject
bankruptcy.
City Attorney White noted that the item was not on today's printed agenda but
needs to be acted upon today because the City received a belated notice
regarding the bankruptcy of the Carter Hawley Hale Stores, Inc. relating to an
outstanding utility bill (electric, water and sanitation services). A
recommendation has been received from the Unsecured Creditors Committee in the
bankruptcy court that all unsecured claims be settled for 47% of the face
value of the claim. This would net to the City the approximate sum of
$80,213.00. It is recommended by his office as well as the Public Utilities
General Manager that the City concur with the recommendation of the Unsecured
Creditors Committee and accept the proposal from Z/C Subsidiary Corporation to
purchase the City's claim for that amount.
MOTION: Council Member Hunter moved to approve the October 2, 1991,
settlement offer made by Z/C Subsidiary Corporation a holy owned subsidiary of
Zel Chilmar Fund LP to purchase the City of Anaheim's creditor claim in the
Carter Hawley Hale Stores, Inc. bankruptcy and further that the City Council
authorize the Public Utilities General Manager to act on behalf of the City in
all future matters related to this bankruptcy. Council Member Daly seconded
the motion. MOTION CARRIED.

Jeff Kirsch, 2661 W. Palais Road, Anaheim. It was his opinion that in some
respects the proposed ordinance would be taking away property rights of

ITEMS OF PUBLIC INTEREST:
Janet Jones, Save Our Services Coalition. She spoke against the action of the
Southern California Gas Company to close payment offices. Their coalition is
dedicated to the goal of maintaining free Gas Company, Utility services. The
Gas Company has always provided payment offices where bills can be paid,
explanations of bills given, problems reported and where customers can request
service calls to their homes. Reduction in services or charges for those
services would have a negative impact on customers but particularly on low
income, those with disabilities, the elderly and minority communities. She
asked that the Council consider a resolution in support of the complaint to
the Public Utilities Commission against fee for service and the closure of
payment offices. She submitted a package of material to the Council
containing a general information sheet, a copy (first page only) of the
complaint before the CUP from various individuals and groups vs. Southern
California Gas Company as well as copies of recent articles on the issue,
petitions, resolutions, etc.
Council Member Daly asked that the Utilities Department staff review the
submitted material and subsequently submit a brief analysis and recommendation
to the Council.

City Hallt Anaheimt California - COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 22, 1991, 5=00 P.M.
Tom Ferruzzo, representing Mr. & Mrs. Yun who own the Quality Inn and Quincy's
Restaurant on Brookhurst Street, the restaurant being part of the facility.
With respect to the issuance of a liquor license, the restaurant, Quincy's,
and the licensees qualify in every respect except for the fact that under the
B and P code and the liquor regulations, the department can deny an
application if the issuance of the license tends to create a law enforcement
problem or is in an area of undo concentration of licenses unless the
applicant shows there is a public convenience or necessity. The Alcoholic
Beverage Commission (ABC) investigator indicated to him that the property and
applicant qualifies but the Anaheim City Council has requested that this
particular regulation be enforced and that a license would not be issued
because it is an area where crime is high. However, if the City Council had
no objection to a license being issued, it would go a long way with respect to
ABC granting the license. Quincy's had a license for a long period but the
owners evicted the operator because of non-payment of rent. He reiterated the
investigator indicated as long as issuance of a license would not go against
Council's wishes and the Police Department had no objection, in all
probability they would get the license.
City Attorney White, answering Council Member Pickler, stated that he has no
personal knowledge of the issue and would like to know whether Mr. Ferruzzo or
his client has contacted the various City departments involved and perhaps the
Council would want a report from both the Planning Department and the Police
Department. Normally ABC, as a matter of course, sends requests for liquor
licenses to the City for review by both Planning and Police. He suggested if
the Council would want to have staff look into the matter and report back and
if there is no problem, so inform the ABC but if there is it would be up to
the Council if they wanted to continue with the objection.
Mr. Ferruzzo confirmed that the license had not been denied but is still in
process. The investigator suggested that he come before the Council before
they made a decision on the license.
Mayor Hunter stated that the Council will get a report back.
Doug Gibson, Peregrine Street, Anaheim. He first passed out red ribbons and
buttons to the Council in support of the Red Ribbon Week anti-drug campaign
and thanked the Council and staff for their support in the endeavor. He then
urged that the Council act on appointments to the Senior Citizen Commission
and also the reappointment of Frank Jacobson to the Private Industry Council.
(Earlier in the meeting the Council continued appointments to Boards and
Commissions to November 5, 1991. They did, however, reappoint Mr. Jacobson to
the Private Industry Council at the urging of Mr. Gibson to take action this
evening.)

Imperial to Weir Canyon stops and starts and is in need of improvements. He
asked staff to look at the possibility of improving that small portion of the
bike trail with 3 or 4 feet of asphalt if there is no great cost to the City.
City Manager Ruth stated he would have staff look into the matter.

Freeway (SR-91) and the Gypsum Canyon Road interchange, on the west
bu The Summit of Anaheim Hills and Sycamore Canyon developments in
the City of Anaheim, on the south by unincorporated property within
the County of Orange in the Ciyt of Orange's sphere-of-influence, and

sphere-of-influence (the proposed Cypress Canyon Specific Plan
development) and further described as the Mountain Park Specific Plan
(SP90-4) project area.
REQUEST= The request is for consideration of a Development Agreement
between the City of Anaheim and the Irvine Company to further govern
the implementation of the previously-approved Mountain Park Specific
Plan (SP90-4). The Mountain Park Specific Plan provides for the

commercial uses, interim sand and gravel mineral extraction, three
elementary schools, a middle school, a high school on-site and

City maintenance yard and facility, three neighborhood parks, two
community parks and a community center.
Proposed Development Agreement 91-01 is within the scope of the
previously approved and certified Program Envlronmental Report No.
302 which adequately describes the activities contemplated by
Development Agreement 91-01 for purposes of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

PLANNING STAFF INPUT:
See Staff Report to the Planning Commission dated October 7, 1991.
Tom Wood, Deputy City Manager. He briefed the purpose of the public hearing
noting that the Development Agreement will further govern the implementation
of the previously approved Mountain Park Specific Plan. He then reported that
staff is recommending several additional amendments which have been
incorporated into the draft received by the Council on Friday, as well as
minor clean-up items which were received by the Council in memorandum dated
October 21, 1991. The Irvine Company is in agreement with all recommended
amendments. The agreement contains provisions over and above the obligations
contained in the Specific Plan and which enhanced and enumerate the provision
of public facilities, improvements, services and fees and payment therefor.
The agreement is the product of extensive negotiations between members of City
staff and the Irvine Company. Staff is recommending two actions - by motion
that the Council determine that the EIR 302 previously certified by the
Council on August 27, 1991, for the project is adequate to serve as the
required environmental documentation for this agreement and that the agreement
be approved and entered into by the City with the Irvine Company. A second
motion is to request the Irvine Company to amend their petition for annexation
to exclude the wild land areas, consistent with discussion with the Irvine
Company, and to accomplish the mutual desire to limit the City's fire safety
exposure.
Mayor Hunter opened the public hearing and asked to hear from anyone who
wished to speak.
Connie Spenger, President, Friends of Tecate Cypress, 1318 E. Glenwood,
Fullerton. She read from a prepared statement dated October 22, 1991, which
was then submitted to the Council for the record. The statement outlined four
reasons why the Friends of Tecate Cypress object to the adoption of
Development Agreement 91-01 (see pages 1 and 2 of the statement - made a part
of the record).
Jeff Kirsch, 2661 W. Palais Road, Anaheim. Relative to the new public
facilities, he asked what additional obligations this would have on the City
General Funds or other funds, or if those are covered by Mello-Roos or other
assessments or developer fees.
Tom Wood. The operation and maintenance is covered by a financing agreement
which says the project will put no additional burden on the City's finances.
It will be revenue and expense neutral. Secondly, the construction of the
improvements may be done via a financing agreement, but that has not been
agreed to by the parties, but they have agreed to work together in that
regard.

City Hallr Anaheimr California - COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 22t 1991~ 5=00 P.M.
Jay Pierce, Irvine Company/Foothill Community Builders. They are in complete
agreement with what is before the Council this evening. He is present to do
two things, encourage the Council strongly to approve the development
agreement and secondly to help answer any questions.
Mayor Hunter asked if anybody else wished to speak.
Gordon Ruser, 1221 S. Sycamore, Santa Ana. Representing the Sierra Club
Angelus Chapter. He first read excerpts from the Planning Commission meeting
of October 7, 1991. He expressed concerns relative to the fact that the term
"wild area' is not defined in the proposed Mountain Park Development Agreement
No. 91-01 and in addition definitions of wild land areas are not found in the
Mountain Park EIR, conditions of approval, habitat enhancement conditions or
phased dedication programs.
More than 90% of the Gypsum Canyon Water Shed at the present time may be
described as wild lands and the City Council should take the recommendations
of the Planning Commission that 90% of Gypsum Canyon be excluded from
annexation to the City of Anaheim. At the September 1991, Sierra Club
Executive Committee meeting, the Committee approved legal and financial
assistance be given to the Friends of Tecate Cypress Lawsuit that challenges
the adequacy of Mountain Park EIR 302 and what, in his opinion, is the
improper certification of General Plan Amendment No. 318. At the August 27,
1991, Moutain Park hearing, he advised the City Council that the Angelus
Chapter is opposed to development in Gypsum Canyon. Ne addressed other issues
and areas of concern not directly related to the area covered by the
development agreement to point out, from his view point, how little they could
expect from the City of Anaheim if Weir Canyon would be dedicated to the City
of Anaheim. He is speaking on behalf of the Sierra Club in regard to its
desire that all of Weir Canyon be set aside as a regional park operated by the
County of Orange. He would hope that the County would set the Canyon aside
for a regional park and before the City approves any development agreement
that it designate that the County of Orange be the recipient of the remaining
acreage within the Weir Canyon water shed that could be used for a regional
park. That is his point.
COUNCIL ACTION: There being no further persons who wished to speak, Mayor
Hunter closed the public hearing.
city Attorney White. There are three con~nents to be included in the record in
response to some comments made by the speakers. As the City Council is aware,
tonight's decision is not related to approving the project. The Council has
already approved both the EIR and the project itself when the Council approved
specific Plan No. 91-4. There is litigation currently pending relating to the
EIR but, in his opinion, that litigation does not preclude the Council from
acting on the development agreement. There were comments made regarding the
legality of the development agreement. Development agreements are used
throughout California pursuant to State statute. To the best of his
knowledge, there has not been a reported apellate case in California that has
held development agreements to be unconstitutional as an abridgment of the
police power of the City. On that basis, staff is recommending that the
Council introduce the ordinance that would approve the development agreement
and adopt the ordinance at the next scheduled Council meeting.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - OCTOBER 22, 1991~ 5~00 P.M.
council Member Daly. He asked relative to the Planning Commission
recommendation that would adjust the annexation affecting some of the wild
lands for fire prevention purposes, how many acres would be removed from the
annexation to Anaheim as a result of that change.
Joel Fick, Planning Director. As the Council may recall from the specific
plan, there were very significant open space areas in the Mountain Park
Specific Plan. There were 1,428 acres of open space preserved on site on the
property which included the Tecate Cypress Eco System and offsite there was
preservation also of 1,414 acres in Weir Canyon and 82 acres on Windy Ridge.
The Planning Commission made a recoa~nendation to the Council that the City
recommend to the applicant that the application be amended to include
primarily those open space areas adjacent to the Koll Canyon property and
incorporating the Tecate Cypress Eco System which was clearly the intent. The
Irvine Company by letter dated October 18, 1991, submitted a letter and
exhibit to the Local Agency Formation Commission that excluded the area
adjacent to what would be the Hahn property area that includes the Tecate
Cypress preserved which has been acquired by the State of California.
Council Member Daly. Of the 3,100 acres, he asked how much that represented -
how much acreage is affected by the adjustment in the annexation request.
Joel Fick. The original specific plan covered 3,179 acres. The amended
boundary of the proposed annexation is 2,339.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT NO. 302~ Council Member Pickler moved that the
City Council does hereby find that Environmental Impact Report No. 302 has
been previously certified by the City Council on July 23, 1991, in conjunction
with General Plan Amendment No. 318 and that environmental impacts and
mitigation measures associated with the Mountain Park Specific Plan Project
were addressed through the certification process and that no additional
impacts would result from the approval or execution of this development
agreement and is therefore adequate to serve as the required environmental
documentation. Council Member Ehrle seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
City Attorney Jack White asked if the action included the fact that the
Council is incorporating by reference the findings set forth as items 1
through 6 in paragraph 8 of the proposed ordinance adopting the development
agreement; Council Member Pickler confirmed that was included.
Council Member Pickler offered Ordinance No. 5271 for first reading, approving
the Development Agreement No. 91-01 for the Mountain Park Specific Plan,
SP90-4. Refer to Ordinance Book.
ORDINANCE NO. 5271: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM (i) APPROVING
