161.114/177.114: CITY COUNCIL COMPENSATION: Councilman Pickier expressed
surprise at action taken by the City Council during his absence on January 19,
1988, to increase compensation by establishing salaries of Council Members for
their weekly services sitting as Redevelopment Agency and Housing Authority

Charter amendment before the electorate, and thereupon moved that the question

lowered each evening.

PUBLIC DISCUSSION-
IN OPPOSITION:
Gus Bode, 726 N. East Street, indicated his opposition to the
proposed amendment and questioned what development was planned.
It was explained that subject general plan amendment would
reduce the density of development in the area, but there was no
specific project proposed at this time.
Frank Guevara, 753 No. Bush Street, stated that the amendment
would be beneficial, however he preferred that no additional
multiple family residential be permitted in the area.
Mr. Lenahan, 741 No. East Street, pointed out that the majority
of properties on his street were single family residences;
however due to the heavy traffic, it was nearly impossible to
get vehicles out of their driveways. He objected to the loss of
fourteen feet from frontage properties, and requested that the
zoning designation remain the same so that properties could be
developed to their highest and best use.
Francis X. Nutto, §21 Jambolaya, spoke in favor of the proposed
general plan amendment, which he felt would reduce ultimate
densities and have a positive effect on traffic congestion.
COUNCIL ACTION:
Mayor Bay closed the public hearing.

APPLICANT'S
STATAMENT:
Mr. A1 Marshall, Newport Pacific Development, 4000 MacArthur
Boulevard, Newport Beach, Agent representing the applicant,
advised that on the north side of Savanna Street 86 two-bedroom,
two-bath apartments were being proposed in a two-story structure
with subterranean parking garages. Although the agenda
reflected a total height of 36 feet, in reality the total height
of the structure would be 30 feet. This constituted the only
need for a variance, due to the three single family homes at the
end of the street; however their garages and driveways were
between their living areas and the proposed development. There
79
City Hall, A~mheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26~ 1988~ 1:30 P.M.
would be no visual intrusion to the condominiums on the north
side of the street adjacent to subject property on the East.
The applicants have met with the neighbors and have redesigned
the project in order to accommodate their concerns as much as
possible. He explained in detail how they have mitigated any
visual intrusion where concern was expressed by adjacent
neighbors.
Mr. Magdy Hanna, Newport Pacific Development, 4000 MacArthur
Boulevard ~680, Newport Beach, Agent representing the
developers, submitted a petition in favor of the proposed
development containing 62 signatures. Rather than develop one
parcel at a time in the area, his corporation had assembled 3
parcels on the south side of Savanna Street, and 4 parcels on
the north, and designed subject developments. If approved and
constructed, only two single family residential parcels on the
street would remain. Currently, there is a mixture of uses in
the area. Any impact to local schools would be mitigated by the
$193,000 in school fees which would be paid.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION-
IN FAVOR: Joan Todd, 3620 Savanna Street, representing residents on the
street. Felt it a worthwhile project and hoped it would
generate a much needed traffic signal at Savanna and Knott
Avenue.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION-
IN OPPOSITION:
Lucille Leach, 847-849 Marian Way. She would lose the privacy
and some sunlight in her back yard, immediately adjacent to
property included in Reclassification No. 87-88-25 and Variance
No. 3727. Other concerns were more pollution, vacancy factor in
existing units, access to Savanna and Marian for emergency
vehicles, parking for more than 300 more vehicles (most families
have two cars). The need is for more affordable single-family
homes.
Michael Mehalick, owner of 853-855 Marian Way. Concurred with
Mrs. Leach. Pointed out that the area was reclassified to a
less dense zone as recently ag 1977, and to preserve the
residential quality of life, he asked that the zoning remain as
it was.
Larry Emerson, owner of 3539 Savanna St. #1. Zoning pattern in
the area already established, more conducive to low medium
density development. As proposed, both developments would have
a severe impact on area density and traffic, and conditions have
not changed to warrant the proposal. Experience showed that
people find it more convenient to park on the street than in
underground parking facilities.
8O
City Hall, A-abeam, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26, 1988, 1:30 P.M.
Carol Smith, 3539 Savanna Street, representing the homeowners
association at her townhome complex. She concurred with
statements by Larry Emerson, and pointed out that traffic was
getting worse all of the time. Homes in her complex were mostly
owner-occupied.
Todd Morton, 3561 Savanna Street. The so-called single story
units adjacent to the townhomes would be above a parking garage,
thereby constituting two-stories. Although they would lose a
portion of morning and afternoon sun, he had no objection to two
stories at a lower density; he requested that the General Plan
be upheld.
Sharron Cooley, resident/owner of 3569 Savanna Street.
Concurred with all opposition expressed. Although the developer
had attempted to protect her privacy, she objected to apartments
overlooking her driveway, her patio and a bedroom. She
indicated approval of the quality of development proposed, but
objected to the density.
Rose Leach, 849 Marian Way. Objected to density, and noted that
some children at Hansen School had to be bussed to other
schools. Requested that the Council preserve their
family-oriented neighborhood.
Mr. Stahovich, 3639 Savanna Street. He had abided by the
General Plan for the area. He is opposed to both projects.
Parking proposed at 1-1/2 spaces per unit was inadequate, and he
noted existing traffic problems in their neighborhood.
SUMMATION BY APPLICANT: Magdy Hanna.
The agent for the developer then countered statements made by
those in opposition, as follows: The property on the south side
of Savanna Street abuts medium density residential zoned
duplexes on Marian Way, and no variance would be required. All
parking for the proposed development would be on-site, and 2-1/2
spaces per unit are projected. Costs assessed to the developers
would pay for necessary additional utilities, as well as school
fees. Traffic problam~ could be addressed by the Traffic
Engineer. Om the north side of the street, there would be no
openings on that side of the project which would abut the
condominiums to protect their privacy. There would be a
limitation of 2 persons per bedroom in the rental agreements.
He was of the opinion that the area had changed since single
family residential developed there years ago, and he noted the
support of neighbors as indicated on the petition in favor
submitted this date.
A1 Marshall.
Referred to Ms. Cooley's concern about overlooking her bedroom,
and advised that the developers had intentionally lowered the
81
City Mm11, Anmhe~m, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26, 1988~ 1:30 P.M.
units on that side to single story above partial subterranean ,
parking to prevent overlooking those adjacent yards and
windows. There were at least 30 to 45 feet from the proposed
units to Ms. Cooley's bedroom window, 20 feet to the property
line and 25 feet to the driveway. He suggested that the
difficulty in making left turns from Savanna onto Knott Avenue
might be relieved by widening the street and re-striping to
allow a left turn lane for Savanna Street traffic to turn
north. Responding to question by Councilman Ehrle, Mr. Marshall
further advised that there would not be a gate to the parking
area. In reply to question by Councilwoman Kaywood, he stated
that the existing problem with water standing in the street
would be corrected by required curbs and gutters for the project.
COUNCIL ACTION:
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
STAFF INPUT:
Responding to questions posed by Council Members, Traffic
Engineer Paul Singer stated that the developer could stipulate
to installation of a traffic signal at Savanna and Knott
Streets, as suggested by the Mayor. The approximate cost is
$100,000. Based on traffic studies, at present the warrant for
the traffic signal will be only 80% satisfied. Widening the
street might satisfy the current problems.
Mr. Hanna stated the developers would be willing to make the
commitment for traffic signal installation.
In response to question by Councilwoman Kaywood, Mr. Marshall
stated that there were several areas designed in the proposed
project for recreational purposes; i.e., on the north side of
the street there would be a large green area along the rear
boundary, and a wall with landscaping. Adjacent to the pool and
spa area would be a place to walk with planters and places to
sit down, all contained within the project to encourage
residents to remain on the premises. A large open area was
located in the center of the project in order to meet land
coverage requirements, and he offered to develop that as a
recreational area; however, he noted ghat would require another
variance for the project.
Zoning Administrator, Annika Santalahti explained that to
utilize the open area for recreation purposes would require
amendment of a condition recommended in the staff report to
allow recreation facilities to be erected in the open area.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT - NEGATIVE DECLARATION: On motion by Councilman
Bay, seconded by Councilman Hunter, the City Council approved the negative
declaration upon finding that it ~as considered the negative declaration
together with any comments received during the public review process, and
further finding on the basis of the initial study and any comments received
82
City Hall, Anaheim, Ca!iforn~a - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26, 1988~ 1:30 P.M.
that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant

HEARING SET ON:
Appealed by Robert N. Wells, Summerhill Development Company, Agent for the
Applicant, and public hearing scheduled this date.
PUBLIC NOTICE REQUIREMENTS MET BY:
Publication in Anaheim Bulletin January 14, 1988.
Posting of property January 15, 1988.
Mailing to property owners within 300 feet - January 14, i988.
PIANNING STAFF INPUT:
See Staff Report to the Planning Commission dated January 4, 1988.
APPLICANT'S
STATEMENT:
Robert N. Wells, representing S-mmerhill Development, 1122 East
Lincoln, Orange.
Working from a posted plan of the project, with the assistance
84
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26, 1988, 1:30 P.M.
of his architect, Will Hanes, Mr. Wells explained that the
project was reclassified by the Planning Commission to RM-1200
which will allow approximately 139 units. Based on their view
of the area and their marketing, they are proposing 92, 2-story
units with secured parking. The project will be gate guarded in
conformance with City traffic standards. It will be a good
buffer between the existing comm-rcial to the west and the
existing residential homes to the east.
Due to the unusual configuration of the shape of the project,
they have found in meeting their density requirements that they
must request one variance, that of maximum height. He then
referred to his detailed letter dated January 18, 1988,
previously submitted to the Council with Exhibits (made a part
of the record) and briefed and/or read portions of it in his
presentation. Copies of the attached Exhibits were posted on
the Chamber wall. At the meeting of homeowners, two had
concerns with the recreation site and the noise that might be
generated. At their suggestions, the recreation area and open
space was relocated further toward the ingress and egress
point. Homeowners to the north had concern about trash
enclosures and as a result those were also relocated. Copies of
the site plan were forwarded back to the homeowners and because
it was over the holidays, there was not enough time for another
meeting.
Working from the Exhibits, he further explained that if the
setback requirement of 150 feet was imposed, they would lose
approximately 66% of the site to single-story construction
only. The "what if" plan overlayed a single-family detached
RS-5,000 square foot subdivision. That ordinance would allow
homes to be constructed within 10 feet of the property line
which is less than 1/2 of the setback they are proposing. After
further briefing of the posted Exhibits, answering Councilwoman
Kaywood, Mr. Wells stated that they did consider building homes
instead of apartments but it did not pencil out. Summerhill is
in the business of building and managing apartments. They
maintain ownership and manage their projects.
Mayor Bay.
He noted the variance involved is 2-story which is normally at
150 feet from R-1 and the applicant is proposing 20 feet. He
asked if there was anything in that 20 feet.
Mr. Wells.
The area will be heavily landscaped with vertical trees to
prohibit any potential views. There are only two areas, one on
the north and east with any window openings. The majority of
the other buildings will have blank wails. Just the areas
pointed out by the architect will have windows.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION-
IN FAVOR: None.
85
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26, 1988, 1:30 P.M.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION-
IN OPPOSITION:
Charlie Wetter, 2229 North Redwood Drive.
He spoke to the traffic situation. The development along the
north side of La Palma was designed in such a way that there was
no through traffic. He then explained the circulation pattern
through the area. There are at least three periods during the
day when it is impossible to get out of the tract and it will be
impossible to add "only" 200 more cars. All they have been
doing is adding just a few more cars and the street is now
jammed practically from State College Boulevard to Sunkist for 2
or 3 hours a day. Adding additional traffic will also increase
the risk of accidents.
Ann Wetter, 2229 North Redwood Drive.
She also expressed concern relative to traffic. There are also
no 2-story apartments at all in the 2200 block or from State
College through Sunkist. She does not favor 2-stories or the
traffic the project will generate.
Francis Nutto, 621 Jambolaya.
Increased density increases traffic and other problems and
overloads the infrastructure resulting in lower quality living
for everybody. The property is master planned for apartments.
If developed with apartments they should be in compliance with
zoning regulations. The property can be easily developed with
24 single-family homes compatible with adjacent single-family.
If the zoning is changed, it should be changed to RS-5,000 to
prepare the way for 24 single-family lots. The Council should
uphold the recommendation of the Planning Commission and deny
the variance.
SUMMATION BY APPLICANT: Robert Wells.
He does not have an answer to the traffic situation. With
respect to any single-family development, if they went to
RS-5,000, if it were economically feasible, there would be the
potential of invasion of privacy.
COUNCIL ACTION:
Mayor Bay closed the public hearing.
Mayor Bay.
He did not hear opposition from a single family homeowner on
Whittier or Banyan. He is assuming the people along all the
borders of the development have no opposition since no one is
present.
Councilman Ehrle.
He agrees with what Mr. Wetter said with regard to traffic but
he is not sure that if 24 single-family homes were developed
City Hall, A~aheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26, 1988, 1:30 P.M.
traffic would be significantly different from what is being
proposed. He knows the area very well and has talked to some of
the residents and they want to see the project go forth. They
are tired of the vacant lot. The developer has had meetings
with all the residents up and down the area and that is why
probably none are present because their concerns were answered.
Councilwoman Kaywood.
She is concerned with the setback to the single-family
residents. The standard was 150 feet between multiple family
and single-family. It was shortened in individual cases to
allow as little as 50 feet. It is not supposed to go lower than
that. She asked for clarification if the request is for a 20 or
a 50-foot setback from single-family homes.
Mr. Wells.
There is a 20-foot setback from the property line and 50 feet
from the houses to the west, between their apartments, and those
homes and 70 feet between their apartments and the homes to the
north.
Annika Santalahti, Zoning Administrator.
Answering Councilwoman Kaywood, she explained the setback
calculation for zoning purposes is based from the property line
to the proposed apartment building. Typically Council and
Commission approvals have been a 50-foot setback from the
property line to the 2-story building where the second-story
windows have been shielded in a manner so there is no
overlooking into the 50-foot area. The Code requires 150 feet.
Mayor Bay.
He agrees with Councilwoman Kaywood. The Code calls for 150
feet from 2-story to the property line of single-family. There
have been many cases where they have lowered that to 70 or 80
feet and in some cases as close as 50 feet. It is his opinion
that this would be a precedent. He cannot think of any other
apartment development next to R-1 where they allowed only 20
feet between 2-stories and the property line.
Annika Santalahti.
She does not recall any witD 2-stories at less than 50 feet.
Mayor Bay.
The precedent gives him great difficulty on this development and
he is mot ready to vote for 20 feet from the property line on
2-story apartments.
Councilman Ehrle.
He would like to see the project developed. It is a situation
where something is going to have to be worked out between the
developer and the owner otherwise he believes the project will
not be approved.
87
49
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26, 1988, 1:30 P.M.
Mayor Bay.
He feels it is a good project but he is not going to vote for
2-story apartments next to single-family at 20 feet.
Robert Wells.
He feels this is something unique and a different situation.
There is a difference in grade between the two sites that may
add to mitigate any of the privacy concerns. The majority of
the units have a blank wall that face on to the existing
homeowners. He thought at one time there was an ordinance that
allowed the blank wall of the units to fall closer within the
setback. Possibly he is referring to a subterranean garage.
The only suggestion he could offer, they could raise the patio
walls to 5 feet so residents cannot view into the adjacent
property owners.
Councilman Pickler.
Traffic is going to be a problem no matter what is developed.
If there was one person on Whittier or Banyan at the meeting in
opposition, he might feel differently. The developer has "sold"
the project to the people who are going to be living next door.
There is nothing that can be done about the traffic and that is
a concern of the people who spoke in opposition. He has no
problem with the project and feels it will enhance the area.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT - NEGATIVE DECLARATION: On motion by Councilman
Pickler, seconded by Councilman Bay, the City Council approved the negative
declaration upon finding that it has considered the negative declaration
together with any comments received during the public review process, and

APPLICANT'S
STATEMENT:
Shawn Kelter, Grubb & Ellis, 2390 East 0rangewood, Anaheim, Ca.
The property is now in Escrow. He also owns the adjoining
property - Ohio Casualty. They are proposing a single-story,
elbow shaped property. They have designed the property out on
the corner away from the residents. It will be a 10,000
square-foot project. Through the ownership of the adjoining
property, they have been able to increase the property to allow
for parking in excess of the Code. It will be a
convenience/retail operation such as a convenience retail store,
a flower shop, a photo shop, etc.
Councilman Pickler.
The reason the Council approved the office building use after
Ralph's market moved out was not to put retail back on that
corner. He has a great deal of concern with the traffic and
retail uses. When offices were proposed on the property, he
felt that was how it was going to remain.
Shawn Kelter.
They are looking to accommodate a small convenience store but
not a 24-hour use. The hours of operation will be 7:00 a.m. to
midnight.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION-
IN FAVOR: None.
89
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 26~ 1988~ 1:30 P.M.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION-
OPPOSITION:
Kathrine Ahrenholtz, 2437 Powhattan.
She is very opposed to any type of retail on that corner. It
would greatly impact their neighborhood. According to the
plans, the trash would be located behind their house. Right now
there is a block wall behind all the houses on that strip which
can be seen from the street. They are very concerned about
crime and having the view of the wall obstructed. She is
concerned with retail use. It will generate trash and noise.
The proposal will decrease the desirability of the neighborhood
and property values.
R.L. Carter, 2433 East Lincoln.
He has lived there for many years. In the last few years, the
corner was "broken off" from what used to be the Raiph's lot and
it was sold. The neighbors agreed to let them build a savings
and loan. Instead of building a building, they transported
two-halves of a structure in and dropped them on cement blocks
which were there for a couple of years and then hauled off the
property. The property is surrounded on three sides by
residential - two sides by single-family and one side by
apartments. He cannot see retail uses going into that corner.
It will not fit the area. Traffic is also very bad at that
corner. Circulation will be impossible. It is not right for
retail to be proposed on that corner.
Francis Nutto, 621 Jambolaya.
He has no objection to a financial institution or offices going
in on that corner but they do not need another convenience
market at that location. There are already many others in the
area.
Jackie Botz, 2422 Paradise Road.
She also addressed the traffic problem and the short-cut cars
are already taking using Paradise Lane.
Larry Ahrenholtz, 2437 Powhattan.
He has lived there for 1 1/2 years. At present it is a quiet,
clean and well kept neighborhood. A retail operation would not
let the neighborhood remain as such. Convenience stores
generate a lot of litter and a lot of extra traffic and
activity. Traffic flow down Sunkist at present is very bad.
There is already activity from the office building when they
come and go which is tolerable, but if that were to occur all
day long, it would be intolerable. They would like to preserve
the quality of their neighborhood.
SUMMATION BY APPLICANT: ShawnKeiter.
He rebutted and countered the statements made by those who spoke
in opposition. To develop the corner with office use does not
make economic sense.
