Housing Authority budgets for the City made up entirely from outside
resources - Redevelopment being funded through tax increment and
Housing Programs being funded through Federal and State funds. There
are four different Control Centers with a total budget of over $51
million - Redevelopment is reflected in two Control Centers -
Community Development Administration, $2.2 million and Redevelopment
activities, $33.3 million. The proposed project from last year is
being revised from $20 million up to $33.3 million. This budget
reflects a more aggressive approach towards Redevelopment Project
Alpha. The budget is predicated on a new bond issue to further
leverage the tax increment funds. The bond issue is anticipated from
between $40 to $50 million.

.-- City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7, 1988, 6:30 P.M.
At the conclusion of presentations, Mayor Bay referred to the Visitor
and Convention Bureau (V&C) budget being covered through the City
Council budget. He asked if it is possible to break out the V&C
portion and separate those costs so that the Council costs become
clear; City Manager Simpson stated that can be done.
Mayor Bay.
Starting off looking at the Council budget, he went to the line item
tabs. There are parts he does not understand even now looking at the
numbers. He sees an increase of $4 million or $5 million in the
Council budget and he cannot figure that out even looking at the tab
run. He would like more explanation and a breakdown of that portion
of the budget before the Council gets to it. It is difficult with no
chart of accounts.
City Manager Bob Simpson.
That can also be done. The big figure the Mayor is talking about is
easily explainable since that is the money that has been escrowed
against the Anaheim Hilton Partnership payment.

item to the Closed Session agenda as follows:
City of Anaheim vs. City of Orange, Orange County Superior Court Case

City MAIl, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7, 1988, 6:30 P.M.

179: PRESENTATION ON BILLBOARD LICENSE FEES - BLUE RIBBON BILLBOARD
COMMITTEE: Presentation of report on billboard license fees from Robert S.
Zemel, Chairman of the Blue Ribbon Billboard Committee.
Mr. Robert Zemel, Chairman, submitted Billboard Blue Ribbon Committee report
dated June 2, 1988, meeting No. 5 summary (made a part of the record). The
one subject that stood out was the antiquated business license fees. There
was a unanimous decision that the fees be separated from all other subjects.
The Committee cannot submit to the Council a completely supported suggestion.
The nature of the structure of the Committee itself dictates such an outcome.
Three motions were put forth calling for a vote and all three failed - (see
Page 5 and 6 of the June 2, 1988 s,,mntary) each having to do with proposals for
fees for billboards according to size. The feeling was that when the City
Council decides on the license fees, the study panel can then address the
other issues. He clarified that the Committee is saying they would like to
have the license fee handled before getting into the many other issues in
order to drop trade-off considerations.
Councilman Hunter agreed that the Council first should take a stand on license
fees and then get into the other issues. If not, he felt four or eight years
from now tb~y will be going through the same thing.
Councilman Pickler. The Committee the Council formed should have only been
the five members who were appointed by the Council with those five taking
input from the billboard companies and citizens and that committee then making
a recommendation back to the Council. He has the impression they have created
something he did not want to see.
Robert Zemel. He confirmed that Councilman Pickler's feelings are accurate.
They have not had a full citizens' representation show up at every moating.
The special interest is magnified in the third proposal presented which did
not even address two types of billboards in the City but only 300 square foot
billboards. The freeway billboards were not even addressed.
After further Council discussion, Councilman Pickler recommended and moved
that using the minutes of June 2, 1988 (the summary report) that the Council
schedule for discussion an agenda item to set fees for billboards in the City
of Anaheim. With fees divorced from the rest of the issues, the Committee can
then concentrate on those other issues. He suggested that the discussion be
set for Tuesday, June 21, 1988. Councilman Hunter seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilman Pickler suggested that additional input be
provided by staff using the minutes as the Committee's report and staff to
also submit their own staff report.
584
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7, 1988~ 6:30 P.M.
A vote was then taken setting the discussion of billboard fees for Tuesday,
June 21, 1988. MOTION CARRIED.
114: DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION OF HOLDING ADDITIONAL NIGHT COUNCIL
MEETINGS: Discussion requested by Robert Zemel, regardiag the issue of night
Council meetings. This matter was first discussed at the Council meeting of
May 17, 1988. Also see letter dated April 11, 1988 submitted by Mr. Zemel at
the Council meeting of April 26, 1988 signed by representatives from the
Anaheim Hills Citizens' Coalition, Anaheim H.O.M.E., Anaheim Municipal
Employees Association, Anaheim Neighbors Association, Anaheim Fire
Association, Anaheim Police Association and Anaheim PAC.
Mr. Robert Zemel, Anaheim Hills Citizens' Coalition. He stated that tonight
there is an opportunity for the Council to demonstrate to the people of
Anaheim who is to be served, the citizens or themselves (the Council).
Recently a poll was taken by the City at the request of the Council to
determine how many cities in Orange County have night meetings. The poll
reflected that every city in Orange County holds night meetings except
Anaheim. He then addressed some of the Council concerns and objections that
have been stated in the past regarding night meetings. He emphasized during
his presentation that the Council must be accessible. Day meetings do not
allow for that accessibility. The citizens want night meetings and it is time
that the Council decides to hold night Council meetings.
Mayor Bay. While cities in Orange County may have night meetings, it is also
fair to state that 23 cities have only two meetings per month whereas the City
Council in Anaheim holds four and sometimes five meetings a month. The City
of Orange has three meetings per month, Garden Grove and Villa Park only one.
Seven cities start their meetings in the daytime prior to 5:00 p.m. and some
earlier. Anaheim has one night meeting per month and three day meetings, many
· of which go beyond 6:00 p.m. or 7:00 p.m. It is necessary, therefore, to look
at not only the number of meetings held in other cities, but also the workload
involved. The letter previously submitted (see letter dated April 11, 1988)
requesting all night meetings, with which he disagrees, comes from, in his
opinion, special interest groups and he disagrees with three of those groups
and what they profess. If the City has all night meetings, he believes there
will not be a good cross section of representation in the City but people with
political crosses to bear and their public interests using the Council
Chambers as a political forum.
THe Council then agreed that public input would be taken at this time limiting
each speaker to three minutes. The following people spoke to the issue of
holding night meetings. They spoke in favor of, if not all night Council
meetings, that there be more, or at least two night meetings per month.
Comments were also offered on how meetings might be shortened; resentment was
expressed by representatives of those who signed the original letter
requesting night meetings being called special interest groups, most urged
that night meetings be held to allow citizens to participate in their
government as well as emphasizing that citizens like and want more night
Council meetings.

Jeff Kirsch, 2661 West Palais; W.W. Willard, 320 North Park Vista; Charles
Carey, 2849 West Polk; Margie Howard, 1158 West Beacon Avenue; Betty Ronconi,

Kurt Stricker, 11i7 Wakefield, Don Piliero, 411 Brook Lane, and Bob McCorkle,
607 North Zeyn.
At the conclusion of public input, Councilman Hunter gave figures on the cost
of night Council meetings, which costs were shown to be negligible. He feels
accessibility to the people is the issue. They are penalizing the double
working household - the housewife is also unable to attend meetings because of
her responsibilities. It is important that the Council be accessible to the
public.
Councilman Ehrle. He agrees with Councilman Hunter that accessibility is
important as well as accountability. He believes~the Council holds day
meetings because of the tremendous agenda and other issues with which the
Council has to deal. Anaheim should put itself on an equal level with other
cities. He is recommending that there be two night Council meetings per month
which would then put Anaheim on a parity with all other cities. It will give
citizens accessibility and at the two day meetings, City government business
can be conducted thus providing the very best type of government that can be
provided. He recommends that there be two night Council meetings per month on
the first and third Tuesday of each month.
Councilwoman Kaywood. She is pleased with the turnout at night meetings which
is a change from what was the case many years ago when no one showed up at
night meetings. She is concerned that night meetings will go well into the
night and early morning as do School District meetings which have a negative
effect. She is favorable to night meetings on the first Tuesday of the month
and has every intention of continuing those meetings. As far as a second
night meeting, she would prefer if there is an item where the neighborhood
requests a special additional night meeting, she favors doing that instead of
a regularly scheduled second night meeting.
Councilwoman Kaywood moved that the Council continue holding a night meeting
the first Tuesday of every month. Councilman Bay seconded the motion. Before
a vote was taken, Councilwoman Kaywood added if there is some issue where it
is too long to wait until the next regularly scheduled night meeting, that a
special meeting be set.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Councilman Hunter moved that Council night meetings be held on the first and
third Tuesday of each month and that these be continued until the end of
December, 1988 and the situation reviewed by the Council again at that time.
Councilman Ehrle seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilman Hunter stated that is the same procedure
the Council followed when it approved holding night meetings once a month -
that the matter would be reviewed in six months to see how it was working.
586
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7~ 1988~ 6:30 P.M.
Mayor Bay. He is speaking against the motion because he does not think it is
necessary.
Councilman Pickler. Although the cost of night meetings is negligible, top
management usually must attend all meetings. There is a City to run and his
concern is the day-to-day business of the City. Relative to accessibility of
the Council, he for one returns all calls from citizens which are directed to
him. He realizes that Councilman Hunter has to work and day meetings may be
difficult for him. He feels they have solved the matter by holding one night
meeting a month and he cannot go along with more than that at present. A vote
was then taken on the foregoing motion that two night Council meetings be held
each month and failed to carry by the following vote:

HEARING SET ON:
An appeal of the Planning Commission's decision was filed by Magdy Hanna,
Newport Pacific Development on April i2, 1988. This matter was continued from
the meeting of May 10, 198~, to this date.
PUBLIC NOTICEKEQUIKEMENTS MET BY:

PLANNING STAFF INPUT:
See Staff Report to the Planning Commission dated April 11, 1988.
Councilman Pickler.
He talked to the Zoning Administrator, Annika Santalahti, with
regard to the new plan submitted by the applicant but got the
impression that staff did not have an opportunity to review the
plans. Staff should have that opportunity and is suggesting a
two-week continuance in order to receive input from staff after
having sufficient time to review the plans.
Annika Santalahti, Zoning Administrator.
The drawings came in too late to prepare a staff report.
personally looked at the revisions this evening.
She
Mayor Bay asked how many people were present on the public
hearing and how many aware of the revised plans; from the
audience approximately 20 people indicated they were present on
the matter and none were aware of revised plans. Upon further
questioning, it was also determined that approximately i5 were
opposed to a continuance.
Councilman Pickler.
Without a staff report and knowledge of what has transpired, he
would rather wait before making a decision. Those who are
present who wish to testify could be allowed to do so at this
time.
589
City Eli, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7, 1988, 6:30 P.M.
MOTION: Councilman Pickler moved to continue the public hearing for two
weeks. Councilman Ehrle seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilman Ehrle asked the applicant if he had an
opportunity to meet with the neighbors.
Magdy Hanna, New-port Pacific, 4000 MacArthur Blvd., Suite 680,
Newport Beach, CA 92660.
They mailed a letter to the neighborhood to attend a meeting and
or~ly one couple came. He will be happy to haqe another meeting
to explain the plan.
Mayor Bay.
He expressed b~s concern over settin~ advertised hearings where
the neighborhood attends and subsequently the staff and Council
are not provided with sufficient or timely information to make
an informed decision at that hearing.
Aft Marshal, Newport Pacific.
The plans were delivered on time, approximately two weeks ago,
but they were somehow delayed in the system.
Councilwoman Kaywood recognized a resident who asked to speak.
Don Heiker, 939 SouthAgate.
The public hearing was continued from the meeting of May 10,
1988 to this date at the request of Mr. Hanna. If the plans
were not in on time, he questioned why the residents were being
penalized. They have been involved since last August and if
this public hearing is continued, it will be the third time,
once at the Planning Commission level and two times at the
Council level. He asked that the Council vote on the issue
today.
Councilwoman Kaywood.
She read the eight changes to the applicant's plans contained in
the data given to the Council today (see letter/brochure dated
June 3~ 1988 from Newport Pacific Development Corporation,
Cambridge Court, 2011 and 2017 Wast Ball Road) at the conclusion
of wb_Ich, Mr. Heiker stated based on those revisions ha can
still speak for himself and on behalf of the neighborhood, what
they oppose, opposed before and still oppose is the density and
the precedent setting of the development which, if allowed,
other properties in the area will do the same and will turn the
development into another complex like those in the Chevy Chase
area and they do not want that. He would still like the public
hearing to go forward today.
Council consensus was that they did not want to make a decision
on the project without knowing what the revised plans entailed
or without input from staff on those plans.

top of slopes, Section 17.06.120.04, within Tract 12576, for the rear lots 14,
15, and 16. Councilman Pickler seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
142/127: PROPOSED AMENDMENTS YO CITY CHARTER: To discuss potential changes
to City Charter to be placed on November 1988 ballot. This matter was
discussed at the meeting of May 31, 1988 (see minutes that date) and determine
that the issue would be placed on each agenda for at least three weeks for
Council discussion and possible action.
Mayor Bay. He referred to the list submitted by the City Attorney and
considered almost everything on the list to be "housekeeping" items that he
would like to be placed in one ballot section for technical clean up of the
Charter. 0t~mr proposed Charter amendments can be brought up now or in coming
meetings. The issue he specifically brought up was to not require a unanimous
vote of the Council in order to waive reading of ordinances and resolutions in
full.
City Attorney White stated that he would have that wording next Tuesday or the
meeting following that.
Councilwoman Kaywood. She had asked last week that the Council consider this
Tuesday doing away with the elected Mayor process which would have to be an
amendment to the previous Charter amendment. Any such change would not take
effect until 1990. There would be no change that would affect the Mayoral
seat in the November 1988 Election.
591
City Hall, AnAheim, C~l~fornia - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7, 1988, 6:30 P.M.
Councilman Hunter. He does not feel that is the trend. Looking at all the
cities, direct election of the Mayor is the way cities are going.
Councilman Ehrle. He spearheaded the drive in 1974 to get the direct election
of the Mayor on the ballot. Anaheim is a unique City and he, for one, will
totally support not only the direct election of the Mayor by the people, but
also that anyone in the City have a right to run for the position. He does
not feel it takes two years to be on the Council to be eligible to be Mayor.
Mayor Bay. The issue is whether or not the Council is ready to put the
question on the ballot and let the people decide. He never approved of the
initiative that Councilman Ehrle started in 1974, nor does he now. He feels
the election of the Mayor in Anaheim was a mistake. The government of the
City is a Council/Manager form of government which does not warrant direct
election of the Mayor. It also leads to political divisions across the City
that should not exist. The benefits of not electing a Mayor, Council Members
are elected as they are now, but the majority of the Council select the Mayor
on an annual basis. This guaranteed the people one thing. If the Mayor could
get three votes to be Mayor, it meant that person would then be representing a
majority on the Council and not a minority. Directly electing a Mayor gives
the people a false concept that the Mayor has more power than he does, but
that Council person is only one vote out of five. With the Mayors of Los
Angeles and Chicago, for example, their government is a strong Mayor/Council
form of government. He feels the change to the Charter to elect a Mayor every
two years prostituted the government the way it was set up to work in the
City. What it created is an extra two-year election and the people on the
Council competing to get to be Mayor. AMayor can be elected in the City if
that person wants to spend enough money and campaign hard enough and then be a
one to four minority vote, which is very possible. He personally favors
putting back on the ballot, with some of the foregoing explanations and
arguments, the selection, instead of election, of a Mayor and let the people
decide.
MOTION: Councilwoman Kaywood moved that the City Attorney be directed to
prepare ballot wording for the November, 1988 ballot which will be a Charter
Amendment reverting back to the method of electing a Mayor amongst the five
Council Members instead of election by the people. Councilman Bay seconded
the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilman Pickler stated each Council person
represents all of the people of Anaheim. The job of Mayor should be rotated
amongst the five Council Members. In running for Mayor, a great deal of money
is spent and it creates a great deal of animosity. If the people want it, he
has no problem with it. Those running for Mayor spend thousands of dollars to
reach 110,000 voters.
Councilman Ehrle. The reason the initiative was originally started by him was
to get the selection of a Mayor out of the back room and to the people.
Although the Mayor is a Ceremonial Chief and Head of the City, the people are
saying this is the person I want to represent me. He has no problem
supporting the direct election of the Mayor. He feels they should also expand
the rights given to the people by letting anyone run for Mayor. He disagrees
592
City Hall, A~he~m, t~lifornia - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7~ 1988~ 6:30 P.M.
with Councilwoman Kaywood on her approach. Further, he was under the
impression that the Council was only going to talk about "housekeeping" issues
as far as changes to the Charter and not major changes in the structure of
government. He had broached several issues a few months earlier regarding
Charter changes.
Councilman Ehrle moved that a Charter Review Committee be formed to come forth
with three or four recommendations to the Council. There was no second to the
motion.
A vote was then taken on the motion made by Councilwoman Kaywood and carried
by the following vote:

Councilman Ehrle moved that the City Attorney be directed to prepare ballot
wording for the November, 1988 ballot which will be a Charter Amendment to
allow any citizen of Anaheim to run for the Office of Mayor without first
having to be a Council person. Councilman Hunter seconded the motion.
Councilman Pickler. He asked Councilman Ehrle if he would hold his motion
over for one week so that he would have an opportunity to consider it further.
Councilman Pickler moved that the motion made by Councilman Ehrle regarding a
Charter amendment allowing any citizen of Anaheim to run for the Office of
Mayor without first having to be a Council person to be continued one week.
Councilman Bay seconded the motion. Council Members Ehrle and Hunter voted
no. MOTION CARRIED.
The motion will, therefore, be considered at the Council meeting of June 14,
1988.
114: REQUEST TO ESTABLISH A SISTER CITY RELATIONSHIP MEERSBUKG, GE~d~ANY:
Kequ~st from June Lowry, President, Anaheim Sister Cities Committee, to
consider the establishment of a Sister City relationship with Meersburg,
Germany.
June Lowry, 5239 East Glen Arbor, Anaheim. The Council is aware of Anaheim's
Sister City relationship with Mito, Japan which relationship was entered into
by the City Councils of both Mito and Anaheim in 1976. Since that time, many
citizens in Anaheim have approached the Sister City Committee and have
suggested or requested that a relationship be set up with some Sister City in
Germany based on the history and ancestors of individuals in Anaheim. Over
the past ten years, the Sister City Committee, under different Councils and
Boards have looked into and investigated several cities in Germany. She
explained what had taken place and the outcome. One year ago, the process
started once again working through Sister City International. At this time,
the Sister City's Board of Directors is requesting that the Anaheim City
593
City Hmll, Anmheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7~ 1988~ 6:30 P.M.
Council start formal negotiations to establish a Sister City Relationship with
Meersburg, Germany. (See letter received April 27, 198~ from Mrs. Lowry
wherein the Board formally made their request).
Mrs. Lowry then answered questions posed by Council Members. No formal
procedures have been started with Meersburg. Meersburg does not want to have
anything formalized until after September because they will be celebrating
their 1,000th birthday; the population of Meersburg is 6,000, there are over
98 cities in Germany having a Sister City relationship with the United States,
Meersburg was the only one interested in establishing such a relationship at
this time, their economy is based on vineyards and tourism.
Councilwoman Kaywood. Having seen the video tape on Meersburg, she is
concerned that, other than having a renowned boys choir, she does not believe
the zelationship would be of benefit to Anaheim. With a population of only
6,000, the two cities do not have much in common. It will be a one-way
relationship and she does not believe it will be viable or something
meaningful as with Mito. Her feeling is to hope that a larger City in Germany
will come forth that has more in common with Anaheim.
Councilman Ehrle. He questioned why the City in the beginning did not look to
a Sister City in Germany rather than Japan considering Anaheim's heritage;
Councilman Hunter did not feel because Meersburg is small it should eliminate
them. It is by Lake Constance and it is a very beautiful area. It is
something that should be looked into without rejecting the idea solely based
on population.
Councilman Pickler. He is a strong booster of the Sister City relationship
and such a relationship with a German City would be an asset. He does not
feel, however, that Anaheim and Meersburg would have much of the same interest
as do Mito and Anaheim.
Councilman Ehrle. He favors a German Sister City relationship especially
since there are so many German roots in Anaheim which was also a very small
community at one time. He would like to go forward with such a relationship
whether it be this one or a larger German City.
Mayor Bay. The recommendation comes from a majority of the Sister City's
Board of Directors. He does not ~eel the Council can ignore ~uch a request.
A great deal of work has been done and it is not easy to find a City willing
to enter such a relationship. It is a tourist spot and a location and
destination point for a great many tourist just as with Anaheim. He does not
know if he is ready at this time to vote yes and commit the City to becoming a
Sister City but he is interested in starting negotiations with Meersburg after
viewing the video.
Councilman Bay moved that formal negotiations be started to establish a Sister
City relationship with Meersburg, Germany. Councilman Ehrle seconded the
motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilwoman Kaywood stated she feels it is
ill-advised especially if they are not serious and they ask the Committee to
go forward on starting negotiations and then pull back.
594
City Hali, Anaheim, Cs!tfornia - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7~ 1988~ 6:30 P.M.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion. Councilwoman Kaywood voted
no. MOTION CARRIED.
ITEMS OF PUBLIC INTEREST:
Bill Ericson, 301 East North Street, Anaheim. He submitted four newspaper
articles relating to (1) a new law passed by Santa Ana to keep loud parties in
residential areas under control, (2) Sacramento issuing citations on drivers
whose auto steros can be heard from a distance of more than 25 feet, (3) a
graffiti attack plan instituted by the City of Stanton. He also mentioned (4)
Certificates of Participation, and (5) Charter change to have the Mayor's race
open to all citizens and, (6) limit to campaign spending. He suggested that
items l, 2 and 3 be referred to the City Manager and staff for their input.
On 4, he will strive to eliminate any future ventures into a no funding
financing program, and he will hold items $ and 6 in abeyance since he does
not want to interfere with this year's elections. He will withhold any
further comments and seek to agendize any of the above if warranted.
Jeff Kirsch, 2661 West Palais, Anaheim. He referred to the discussion on
proposed changes in the Charter. He does not know the exact form of the
Charter and wondered how many other Anaheim residents know anything about
these matters. He does not know what avenues are available to bring everybody
up to speed on what they are voting. The Council might want to think about
whether they are doing enough or too much or if there is an attempt on the
part of the Council to educate the electorate on these matters.
City Clerk Leonora Sohl announced that the City Charter is available to anyone
who wishes to have a copy in her office at a nominal cost. The Charter is
also available in the public library and it is also a part of the Anaheim
Municipal Code.
Mr. Kirsch also posed questions relative to the City's present Sister City
arrangement with Mito, Japan.
Sharon Ericson, 6401 East Nohl Ranch Road. She expressed confusion about the
proposed Charter Amendment. The way she read today's agenda, she did not
think that such an issue was going to come about. She questioned why the
matter could not be set up for public input because people do not really
understand. She asked the Council to explain what they did tonight.
Councilwoman Kaywood. The Council voted to put on the November, 1988 ballot a
Charter amendment to change the direct election of the Mayor; Councilman Ehrle
stated there might also be another Charter proposal that will open it up so
that anyone can run for Mayor of the City.
Mayor Bay. The Charter should be thought of as the Constitution. 0nly the
people can change the Constitution and only the people can change the City
Charter. It is the limitation on what the Council can do and how they can do
it. The Charter is the basis for Anaheim's form of government.
Melody Burtt, 320 North Park Vista, Space #57, Anaheim. Earlier not one
person spoke against evening Council meetings. In spite of all those who
spoke in favor, the Council still saw fit to put their convenience before the
595
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - June 7~ 1988~ 6:30 P.M.
residents. It is a clear statement in and of itself and one which she feels
will be remembered for a long time.
A second issue, the Council continually talks about time while citizens are
speaking but at the same time Council Members insist on talking beyond the
three minute limit given residents.
Betty Ronconi, 124i South Walnut, Anaheim. Most of the things she has heard
sound like a Charter Review Committee is warranted as Councilman Ehrle has
suggested. Perhaps a Committee of the Council's choosing would be helpful.
She does not see the amendments as an emergency item. It might be to the
Council's benefit because the citizens might consider a pay raise for Council
Members. She believes that the citizens of Anaheim would like to see the
Council be paid for at least their expenses which, in her opinion, are not
being covered at the present time.

Boulevard to the west, Cypress Street to the south, the Union Pacific Railway
to the east and La Palma Avenue to the north, excluding the area bounded by
Wilhelmina Street to the north, Sabina Street to the west, Sycamore Street to
the south and the Union Pacific Railway to the east; also excluding those
properties fronting onto Anaheim Boulevard and La Palma Avenue; also excluding
portions A, B and C described as follows: Portion (A), 3 properties
comprising approximately 0.87 acre located at the northwest corner of Ciaudina
Street and Wilhelmina Street; Portion (B), 7 properties comprising
approximately 1.92 acres located at the southwest corner of Adele Street and
~m~ly Street; Portion (C), 15 properties consisting of approximately 2.09
acres located on the north side of North Street from the alley west of
Claudina Street to Olive Street - from RM-1200, CL, CH, and ML, to RM-2400.
Councilwoman Kaywood. The item as stated on the agenda is not correct. It
states there are 12 RS-7200 properties on the north side of North Street which
should be 15 properties. RS-7200 is not included and will not become RM-2400.
Annika Santalahti, Zoning Administrator. The agenda should read i5 instead of
12. This was meant to be a s-mmary of the legal description and that
description does cover i5 properties.
Councilwoman Kaywood. She wants to be assured as well as the residents that
RS-7200 will remain RS-7200 and not be rezoned to RM-2400.
Annika Santalahti. It is her understanding the legal description was changed
and it is correct.
City Attorney, Jack White. The legal description in the ordinance is
correct. The error is in the agenda material. The ordinance being offered is
correct.
Councilman Hunter offered Ordinance No. 4932 for first reading.
