129: CONFIRMING AND PROCLAIMING THE EXISTENCE OF A LOCAL EMERGENCY: City
Manager Talley briefed the Council on his report dated April 22, 1982,
recommending that the Council confirm and proclaim the existence of a local
emergency as a result of the April 21, 1982, wind storm and fire which swept
through Anaheim, resulting in devastation of property and displacement of over
1,500 residents. A state of emergency had been declared by the Governor's
office and the Council was being requested to ratify the proclamation
(attached to the report) confirming the existence of a local emergency. Fire
Chief Bob Simpson was present to give an update on the fire disaster.
MOTION: Councilwoman Kaywood moved to ratify the proclamation confirming the
existence of a local emergency. Councilman Roth seconded the motion. One
Vacancy. MOTION CARRIED.
365
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 27, 1982, 1:30 P.M.
A staff briefing then followed on the fire, the first by Fire Chief Bob
Simpson. He showed slides of a map of that portion of the City affected, and
the path of the fire through that area (Ball Road and Euclid Street--a section
on the north side of Bail Road between Loara Street to Euclid, and Genoa
Avenue to Bail Road--south side of Bali Road, south almost to Palais--and
Euclid Street west toward Palm Way, and a small section to the west of Euclid
Street, south of Ball Road). The slides were followed by a composite video
tape of the fire in progress and the efforts made to contain it in the 60
miles plus per hour Santa Ana winds. He stated that the purpose of the
presentation was two-fold--the first, to give an update on the occurrence, and
the second, to dispel any lingering doubts about the continuing factor of wood
roofs. Brands from wood shake roofs were found as far as a mile away from the
scene of the fire. Chief Simpson then relayed facts and figures on the devas-
tation which resulted in a loss of square footage of 12 to 14 acres.
Acting Police Chief Jimmie Kennedy then briefed the Council on his Depart-
ment's operations during the fire and those still continuing, followed by an
overview of the City's overall participation by Assistant City Manager William
Hopkins, who also gave a briefing on ~he ramifications of the area having been
declared a disaster by the local, state and federal governments. He noted
that the City's disaster plan became fully activated as a result of the
disaster.
Mayor Ben Bay stated it was going to be difficult to thank all the people who
helped during the period of emergency. He congratulated the Fire Chief,
Police Chief and also, the Assistant City Manager, who was controlling the
Disaster Center at the time. The City was further attempting to list every
City, the County, the E1 Toro Marine Base, Los Angeles County, Los Angeles
City, and all agencies who assisted, as well as the Red Cross volunteers who
immediately set up a center for fire victims at Bali Junior High School with
the help of that School District, including the students, Explorer Scouts, and
numerous citizen volunteers. He also touched upon the financial aid that was
offered, starting with a donation of ~50,000 from Mervyn's Department Store.
The donations were still pouring into the Orange County American Red Cross
where their goal was ~250,000, already nearing $180,000. He then mentioned
other organizations and businesses who had contributed in one way or another.
The Anaheim Chamber of Commerce also had a fund set up on a non-profit
corporation basis to handle donations. He felt the real story was the help
that came from every direction, and thank you letters were in the process of
being prepared.
Council Members Kaywood, Overhoit and Roth also added their comments, the
theme of which was their thank you for the outstanding volunteerism that was
displayed in every area where assistance was needed, as well as to staff, both
to individuals and departments as a whole, who mobilized so quickly and for
the outstanding job they had done.
Questions were then posed by a Mr. Don Coors, who was in the Chambers
audience, regarding the disaster. He felt that if such "stupid" roofs were
not put on buildings where the fire could spread, and if buildings were not
constructed so close together, tragedies would not result.

TO ROOFS, DECLARING THE URGENCY THEREOF, AND DECLARING THAT THIS ORDINANCE
SHALL TAKE EFFECT IM>fEDIATELY.
Before a vote was taken, Councilman Roth referred to calls received in the
last few days from people offering fireproofing materials, etc. He hoped that
the Fire Chief would evaluate some of the materials available in the market-
place and subsequently, recommendations could be made. He was concerned over
existing older structures with shake roofs that were drying up.
City Manager Talley felt that was an appropriate area for exploration. They
had also received a number of calls and staff was recommending for considera-
tion that any company, a distributor or manufacturer who believed they had a
product which the City should bring to the public's attention, to contact Fire
Chief Simpson. The Fire Department and the Building Division would prefer to
conduct tests first and following testing and evaluation, that the results be
presented to the Council. He felt it more appropriate at that time rather
than turning the Council meeting into a forum for manufacturers or products.
Mr. Louis Dexter, Director-Treasurer, Public Safety Coalition, 305 North
Ranchito, then started to read a prepared statement dated April 27, 1982 (on
file in the City Clerk's office), which started with a chronology of his
367
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 27, 1982, 1:30 P.M.
attempts to have the Council establish a Public Safety Commission, starting in
September of 1978; Mayor Bay interjected and asked Mr. Dexter to speak only to
the subject at hand, the proposed Urgency Ordinance concerning roofing
materials.
Mr. Dexter then continued reading only the 7th, 8th and 9th paragraphs of his
statement, the concluding sentence of which was as follows: "...I am of the
firm conviction that had there been a Public Safety Commission and a Public
Safety ~ster Plan in existence prior to this year, the concern of the Fire
Chief regarding fire hazards in the City could have been brought before the
Public Safety Commission and these potential fire hazards publicly discussed
and acted upon."
City Attorney William Hopkins then read the proposed Urgency Ordinance No.
4333 in its entirety, as required.
Upon conclusion of the reading, a vote was then taken on the foregoing Urgency

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 27, 1982, 1:30 P.M.
The decision of the Planning Commission was appealed by R. S. Hoyt, Jr., of
Bryan Industrial Properties, Inc., and public hearing scheduled this date.
City Clerk Linda Roberts announced that a request had been received from Bryan
Industrial Properties in a letter dated April 23, 1982, for a two-week con-
tinuance of the public hearing, as well as a letter dated April 27, 1982, from
the agent for the applicant, Murdoch & Orsborn for Pacific Theater and
California Drive-In Theaters, dated April 26, 1982, requesting that
reimbursement be made to that City for added Fullerton police costs and that
that be made a condition of the Conditional Use Permit should it be approved.
The Mayor asked to hear from Mr. Hoyt of Bryan Industrial Properties, who
appealed the decision of the Planning Commission and who requested the con-
tinuance; Mr. Hoyt was not present, but a Mr. Jerry Knudsen, Attorney, was
present on Mr. Hoyt's behalf.
A brief discussion then followed between Mr. Knudson and members of the
Council relative to the reason for the request for continuance, and during
which the Council recalled that at no time had a request for continuance been

Omega; Mrs. Emil Kohler, 2640 Rigby Lane. Mr. Funk also submitted a petition

space on their street and urging that alternatives be sought; Mr. Kohler also
submitted a petition containing 17 signatures opposed to the proposed
ordinance, as well as a letter from Esta Hale, 2341 Omega, in opposition.

COUNCIL COMMENTS REGARDING THE RECENT FIRE: Council Members further commented
on the recent fire (April 21, 1982), the events of the past week relative to
same, and commented once again, and commended once again, the outstanding
volunteerism of the City's citizens in assisting wherever possible.
COMPLAINT OF POTENTIAL HAZARD: Councilwoman Kaywood referred to a letter
received reporting that a house on the northwest corner of Wilhelmina and
Citron Streets had pine tree needles all over the shingle roof presenting a
hazard. She asked that staff investigate the matter to see if it could be
cleaned up and made less dangerous.
MAYOR'S HOTLINE NOW CITY COUNCIL HOTLINE: Mayor Bay wanted to bring to the
Council's attention a change in the Mayor's Hotline--it was now the City
Council Hotline as reflected in the new message which he recorded last week,
the opening sentence being, "Thank you for calling the City Council Hotline."
He asked their assistance on any calls requiring personal answers, that they
answer some of those calls. Since the staff had done an excellent job of
follow-up on hotline calls, there were not too many that needed a personal
answer.
LIAISON CONCEPT: Mayor Bay asked that the Council think about any reorganiza-
tion to the present liaison concept setup. He suggested that they consider
having only one Council Person on most of the liaison assignments, instead of
two, and further suggested that the Mayor be an ex-officio member to any of
the liaison committees, so that the Mayor could attend any of the meetings as
needed. He emphasized, however, that the highest administrative official at
any of those meetings should continue to submit their one-page reports to the
Council so that they could be kept informed. He again recommended that the
Council consider the suggestion and make recommendations so that those could
be discussed. He was trying to communicate with the whole Council on any
decisions that had to be made between Council meetings.
In concluding his remarks, Mayor Bay referred to the empty seat (the Mayor's
usual seat), stating that he did not move to that seat because he felt it
should remain empty, not only in honor of the past Mayor (John Seymour), now
State Senator, but also due to the fact that an elected Mayor should occupy
that seat. It was further a reminder that he (Bay) was an interim Mayor until
an election should choose either Councilwoman Kaywood or Councilman Roth to
fill that seat.
REQUEST FOR CLOSED SESSION: The City Manager requested a Closed Session to
discuss personnel matters with no action anticipated; the City Attorney
requested a Closed Session to discuss litigation with action anticipated.
Councilwoman Kaywood moved to recess into Closed Session. Councilman Overholt
seconded the motion. One Vacancy. MOTION CARRIED. (4:21 p.m.)

ALAN DAVID SIME VS. CITY OF ANAHEIM: Councilman Bay moved to authorize the
City Attorney and Ruston & Nance to settle Orange County Superior Court Case
No. 33-94-41, Alan David Sime vs. City of Anaheim, for a sum not to exceed
~26,500.00. Councilman Roth seconded the motion. One Vacancy. MOTION CARRIED.
