81-1329
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3~ 1981, 1:30 P.M.
FINANCIAL DEMANDS AGAINST THE CITY in the amount of $1,256,826.26, in accord-
ance with the 1981-82 Budget, were approved.
175: ELECTRIC UTILITY BILLINGS - JUNE AND JULY~ AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER; t981:
(Continued from the meeting of October 27, 1981--see minutes that date).
Councilman Bay referred to memorandums dated October 15 and October 21, 1981
from Public Utilities General Manager Gordon Hoyt (on file in the City Clerk's
office) generated as a result of his questions on utility billings during the
subject period. The memorandum of October 21, 1981 contained a number of
exhibits (A through F) giving specific responses to questions previously
raised by him. He then s,,mmarized what occurred since his request for
answers, including his meetings with the Utilities Department Management and
the Data Processing Manager, during which they discussed the Electric Utility
billing problems that occurred in June, July and August. He also summarized
the numerous problems encountered referencing the aforementioned reports. In
concluding, he stated with all of those problems combined into one four-month
period, it was understandable why there were some emotional electric bills.
Councilman Bay then recommended that the Utilities Department make two
changes: (1) that customer information be included on the portion of the
utility bill kept by the customer instead of on the portion sent to the
Department along with payment. (2) That a simplified instruction sheet in
layman's terms be sent to all residential customers, preferably a mailer sent
with the bills that would explain in the simplest manner the proper way to
calculate their rates on the bill. The sheet could be submitted to the
Council in two weeks and if acceptable, it could first be given to the news-
papers in the hope that it would be printed in advance of the mailer.
Councilman Bay then spoke to the Energy Cost Adjustment Billing Factor (ECABF)
upon which he elaborated. He was concerned that there was no guarantee that
the ECABF would remain the same, since the cost of electricity increased from
the supplier. He wanted to amplify the fact that there was the potential
within the rate change the Council approved that if the ECABF factor swung the
other way, the public and the Council should know how that affected the per-
centage increase changes, and they should be fully aware of how much it was
going to go up and when. He further suggested that when they were going to
change the ECABF, particularly going from negative to positive, that the
Public Utilities Board be involved in looking at that change.
Public Utilities General Manager Gordon Hoyt stated he did not have a problem
with that in general, but he had an immediate problem. He was looking at the
need for an increase within the next couple of weeks; otherwise, in six
months, they would be approximately $5 million in the hole. It was, there-
fore, necessary to take action quickly and after that was done, he would have
no problem going back to the Board as a matter of policy.
Councilman Bay wanted to see as much advance notice as possible relative to
rate changes and what they were paying for electricity from the source, so
that the Council would not have a credibility gap with the Utility users in
the City and so they would know what they were faced with.
81-1330
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3, 1981, 1:30 P.M.
Don Metzger, Assistant Customer Service Manager, then explained for the Mayor
how they had been handling the large number of complaints that were being
received relative to Utility bills that had risen to twoand three-fold.
MOTION: Councilman Bay moved to direct the Utilities Department as follows:
(1) that notification of an estimated bill when it occurs be on the customer-
retained portion of the Utility billing; (2) that an instruction sheet which
will eventually go out to all residential customers be presented to the
Council within two weeks for review, the intent of which will be to lay out
the method that customers can turn their kilowatt hours in dollars into cents
per kilowatt.
Before action was taken, Mayor Seymour suggested relative to the instruction
sheet if in the same two-week time span that it be sent to the Public
Utilities Board for their recommendation; Councilman Bay was agreeable, but
asked that in any event, it be done in the two-week time frame.
Councilman bay continued that his motion was to include, (3) that any changes
to the ECABF factor be directed through the Public Utilities Board with their
comments to be forwarded to the Council before going into effect. Councilman
Roth seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilman Bay also clarified that he wanted the
information chain open through the Public Utilities Board to the Council
during the two-week period.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion. MOTION CARRIED.
175: PARTICIPATION IN THE IVANPAH GENERATING PROJECT (FORMERLY CAL COAL PRO-
JECT) OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY: Consideration of authorizing a
Letter Agreement dated July 7, 1981 with Southern California Edison Company
for participation in the Ivanpah Generating Project, was submitted.
City Manager William Talley asked that consideration of the subject participa-
tion be continued one week, since they had not received the Letter Agreement
back. If it was not received by next week, it would be removed from the
agenda until it was received.
CITY MANAGER/DEPARTMENTAL MOTION CONSENT CALENDAR: On motion by Councilwoman
Kaywood, seconded by Councilman Overholt, the following items were approved as
recommended:

temporary help services, and to implement the third year of the outside agency
temporary help program, was submitted.
Councilman Bay first relayed for the Mayor the results of research he had done
relative to the City's usage of temporary help.
MOTION: At the conclusion of discussion between the Mayor and Councilman Bay
on the matter, Councilman Overholt moved to authorize the Human Resources
Department to solicit proposals from firms interested in providing temporary
help services, and to implement the third year of the outside agency temporary
help program, as recommended in memorandum dated October 28, 1981 from Human
Resources Director Garry McRae. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion.
Councilman Seymour voted "no". MOTION CARRIED.
Mayor Seymour again expressed his opposition as he had since the program was
first proposed, that being he did not agree with the philosophy that the City
needed to staff temporary help to fill in for illnesses and vacations and that
those vacancies could be covered from within, as in the private sector.

PUBLIC HEARING - VARIANCE NO. 3237 AND NEGATIVE DECLARATION: Submitted by
James T. and Shirley Hanney Rmfferty, to retain a groundmounted antenna on
RS-5000(SC) zoned property located at 178 Paseo Robles, with a Code waiver of
prohibited antenna.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC81-204, disapproved
a negative declaration from the requirement to prepare an environmental impact
report and also denied Variance No. 3237. (Planning Commission Resolution No.
PC81-221 was also adopted nunc pro tunc with regard to persons in attendance
at the Planning Commission meeting of October 19, 1981).
The Planning Commission's decision was appealed by James T. Rafferty, owner,
and public hearing scheduled this date.
The Mayor asked to hear from the applicant or applicant's agent.
Mr. James T. Rafferty, owner, 178 Paseo Robles, first gave his extensive back-
ground as an ameteur radio operator and explained that he purchased his
present home in August of 1974 only after receiving confirmation that there
were no CC&R's as they pertained to antennas. He then presented his argument
in favor of being able to retain the antenna. In the course of his
presentation, Mr. Rafferty submitted letter February 10, 1976 from a Jay R.
St.Germain thanking him for helping to pass messages to concerned families in
the aftermath of the Guatemalan earthquake, a notification of proposed
construction of the tower within the City Limits and copy of a petition signed
by residents in favor of allowing the antenna to remain in place. He also
showed a plot map of the area indicating in yellow those homes having
roof-mounted antennas which were also prohibited in the Scenic Corridor
Overlay Zone, but he was the only one cited. He also expanded upon the
interference problems alleged to have been experienced by neighbors,
specifically the Calhouns, the property adjacent to the rear of his home. He
emphasized that the issue before the Council was not interference but a
variance to permit his antenna to remain in place. In concluding, Mr.
81-1334
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3~ 1981~ 1:30 P.M.
Rafferty respectfully requested that Variance No. 3237 be granted considering
the following: The fact that he had been constantly operating his federally-
licensed ameteur radio station from his home over the past seven years, that
the present ordinance created a severe hardship because it would deprive him
the use of and ability to communicate with his station and that he was living
in an area with severe topographical limitations which constituted sufficient
extrordinary circumstances.
The Mayor then asked to hear from those in favor of granting Variance No. 3237.
The following people spoke in favor of retention of the antenna, their main
reasons being that if the variance were denied, it would set a dangerous
precedent throughout the City, since it would affect all licensed amateur
radio operators; the interference level was much less when an antenna was high
in the air and clear of adjacent TV antennas; and as a high ranking officer in
the amateur radio field if the antenna were not allowed, Mr. Rafferty could no
longer carry on his duties: Wade Faircloth, 1111 South Keats; Dr. Wayne
Overbeck, Associate Professor of Communications at Cai State Fullerton, 5818
Woodlake Avenue, Woodland Hills; Dr. William Doud, 6316 Vermont Street, Long
Beach; Joan Faircloth, 1111 South Keats.
The Mayor then asked to hear from those in opposition to the granting of
Variance No. 3237.
Mrs. D. D. Calhoun, 6000 Paseo Rio Azul, explained t~at she shared a rear
property line with the Rafferty's. She first emphasized that the Planning
Commission disapproved a negative declation status relative to preparing an
environmental impact report on the project. She then elaborated upon the
problems of interference in her household when transmissions were made by Mr.
Rafferty. She and her husband had not been indifferent to the installation of
the 70-foot antenna but outraged by it, and further, their environmental
rights were being violated by the visual intrusion of the antenna. She
implored the Council to concur with the decision of the Planning Commission
that the antenna must come down and that they deny a negative declaration
status relative to an environmental impact report. Doing otherwise would set
a dangerous precedent in the Scenic Corridor. During her presentation, she
asked that the photographs submitted to the Planning Commission at the
October 19, 1981 meeting be shown to the Council depicting the visual intru-
sion of tha antenna in relation to her property. She als0 submitted an
additional letter of opposition from one of her neighbors who could not be in
attendance.
Mr. Merle Calhoun, 6000 Paseo Rio Azul, stated, putting the interference
problem aside, his main objection was to the looks of the antenna and its
detrimental effect on the aesthetics of the surroundings.
There being no further persons who wished to speak either in favor or in
opposition, the Mayor then gave the applicant an opportunity to rebut the
arguments made by the opposition.
81-1335
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3, 1981, 1:30 'P.M.
Mr. James Rafferty then responded to the various points of opposition raised
by the Calhoun's.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
Mayor Seymour in trying to resolve what he considered to be a neighborhood
"squabble" offered the following to Mr. Rafferty as a solution: That the
variance be approved but wit~ the following stipulations (1) that the antenna
be raised only during night-time hours to preclude the visual intrusion (i.e.,
raised no earlier than sunset and lowered by sunrise. He added that it could
be raised during daylight hours only in the event of an emergency but in
concert with the City of Anaheim's Emergency Services Division. If there was
an emergency during the day and he (Rafferty) cleared it through the City's
Emergency Services Division, the antenna could be raised in assisting the
City. (2) That Mr. Rafferty be willing within all reasonableness to provide
the proper filters to mitigate interference to all property owners requesting
same within 300 feet, as he offered.
Mr. Rafferty requested a short period of time to consider the Mayor's proposal.
RECESS: By general consent, the Council recessed for 10 minutes. (5:00 p.m.)
AFTER RECESS: Mayor Seymour called the meeting to order, all Council Members
being present. (5:12 p.m.)
Mr. Rafferty thereupon agreed to the above stipulations as set forth by the
Mayor.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT - NEGATIVE DECLARATION: On motion by Councilman
Seymour, seconded by Councilman Roth, the City Council finds that this project
would have no significant environmental impact, as recommended by staff after
having reviewed the proposal and Initial Study recommending that a negative
declaration be approved, the project is, therefore, exempt from the require-
ment to prepare an EIR. MOTION CARRIED.
Councilman Seymour offered Resolution No. 81R-519 for adoption, reversing the
findings of the City Planning Commission, granting Ordinance No. 3237, subject
to the following Interdepartmental Committee recommendations and the addition-
al stipulations as agreed to by Mr. Rafferty:
1. That the existing radio antenna structure shall meet the minimum standards
of the City of Anaheim, including the Uniform Building, Electrical, and
Mechanical Codes as adopted by the City of Anaheim.
2. That the existing radio antenna structure on subject property shall con-
form to plans and specifications on file in the City of Anaheim marked Exhibit
Nos. 1 and 2.
3. That the petitioner shall obtain all necessary building permits no later
than January 3, 1982.
81-1336
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3, 1981, 1:30 P.M.
4. That the antenna can be raised only during night-time hours - raise no
earlier than sunset and lower by sunrise.
5. That the applicant be willing within all reasonableness to provide the
property filters to mitigate interference for equipment such as T.V.'s,
radios, stereos, tape-recorders, etc., upon request of all property owners
within 300 feet of the antenna.

107: PUBLIC HEARING - 1981 EDITION OF NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE: To consider
adoption of the 1981 Edition of the National Electrical Code, with amendments
thereto, and adding a new Chapter 15.16 to Title 15 of the Anaheim Municipal
Code.
Mr. Ron Thompson, Planning Director, introduced the proposed resolution set-
ting forth local conditions justifying amendments to the National Electrical
Code, 1981 Edition, and briefed the Council on memorandum dated September 30,
1981 (on file in the City Clerk's office) recommending that Anaheim join with
17 other jurisdictions in Orange County in not permitting aluminim wire in
sizes smaller than number six wire.
After questions were posed to staff by the Council, Mayor Seymour referred to
letter dated November 3, 1981 just received from Mr. Bryan W. Vaughan,
Chairman, Building Codes Committee, Orange County Chapter, Building Industry
Association (BIA) of Southern California, Inc., attached to which was a chart
taken from IAEI News, September-October, 1981 reporting and tabulating fires
and accidents of electrical origin involving 174 cities throughout the country
(on file in the City Clerkls office). In the last paragraph on Page 1 it
indicated that ~naheim's proposed amendments to the 1981 National Electrical
Code were not in compliance with the State Housing Law requirements and,
therefore, would not be effective or operative for any purposes.
Mr. Thompson pointed out that the State law set forth a requirement for justi-
fication of amendments based on local conditions.
The Mayor then asked if statistics were available relative to fires caused in
the City by aluminum wiring; Mr. Thompson answered that the Fire Marshal
indicated there were quite a number involved, that the information was in the
computer, but they did not have a program established to retrieve it. When he
asked how long it would take to access that information, he was informed that
the problems in so doing involved time, manpower, cost and priorities.
81-1337
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3, 1981, 1:30 P.M.
City Attorney Hopkins then clarified for Councilman Bay the information
contained in the November 3, 1981 letter from Mr. Vaughan. The Health and
Safety Code provided that changes could be made by a governing body of a city
if they made express findings that the modifications or changes were needed.
The findings must be made part of the public record and copy of the findings,
together with modifications or changes must be sent to the Department for
review and if filed by the Department, it could become effective. The find-
ings must indicate that there were local climatic, geographical or topographi-
cal conditions that required the modifications to be made.
Mr. Harley Hesse also stated in answer to Councilman Overholt that he would
say that there were approximately over 100 fires in the City over a period of
15 years involving the termination of aluminum conductors.
The Mayor asked to hear from those in favor of the proposed amendments to the
National Electrical Code. No one was present.
He then asked to hear from those in opposition.
Mr. Bryan W. Vaughan, representing the Orange County Chapter of the BIA,
referred to his November 3, 1981 letter. He confirmed that he did not believe
any of the nine proposed changes were in compliance with the State Housing
Law, because they were not specifically related to local conditions, but any
one of the amendments could be equally applied anywhere in the United States.
Also, with reference to the attached tabulation, he concluded that copper wire
was double as dangerous as aluminum, since the melting point was 1800 degrees
with a loose connection. Aluminum wire was between 100 and 1100 degrees melt-
off in a burnout before excessive heat was generated and that was an
advantage, rather than a disadvantage. Relative to the BIA in Orange County,
after 12 years and 15,000 houses, they experienced no more trouble with
aluminum than with copper. In the case of Anaheim, the City required an extra
precaution--that being copper connections with pigtailing and that was the
reason why there were no records of failure, because they did not exist. If
they were going to be objective, he urged that they compare the copper wire
failures side by side with the aluminum wire failures. He also hoped that
they would not get side stepped in the case of aluminum wire in order to
justify the eight other proposed changes.
City Manager Talley confirmed that the City of Anaheim did not require pig-
tailing as Mr. Vaughan had alleged; Mr. Hesse also confirmed that the
ordinance being recommended did not require pigtailing. That ordinance was
identical to the one the BIA asked them to accept, the only change being the
deletion of aluminum conductor in sizes smaller than number six wire. He also
confirmed for Councilman Bay that all the proposed changes were accepted by
the BIA except the aluminum wiring. Mayor Seymour also wanted to know from
staff the local climatic, geographical, or topographical conditions which
prompted the proposed amendments as well as the information from the Fire
Department relative to the fire incidences caused by aluminum wiring, and that
that information exist in writing before they adopt the proposed ordinance.
81-1338
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3; 1981; 1:30 P.M.
MOTION: Councilman Bay moved that the hearing be continued one week so that
staff could collect more information from the Fire Department.
Before action was taken, further discussion followed between the Council and
staff clarifying the request for information which in finality was to include
evidence relative to fires caused by aluminum wiring and facts that would
demonstrate that the proposed nine amendments were reasonably necessary
because of local climatic, geographical, or topographical conditions.
MOTION: Councilman Overholt moved that the hearing be continued to
December 1, 1981, at 3:00 p.m., to give staff an opportunity to answer all of
the questions raised. Councilman Roth seconded the motion. Councilwoman
Kaywood voted "no". MOTION CARRIED.
MOTION: Councilman Roth moved that accurate records be kept establishing ii
any more fires in the City are caused by aluminum or copper wiring. Council-
woman Kaywood seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
128: MONTHLY FINANCIAL STATEMENT - THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30~ 1981: On
motion by Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilman Overholt, the Monthly
Financial Statement for the three months ended September 30, 1981, was ordered
received and filed. MOTION CARILIED.
153: CREATION OF JOB CLASS - ASSISTANT PUBLIC UTILITIES GENERAL MANAGER -
POWER RESOURCES: Amending Resolution No. 81R-499 which established rates of
compensation for classes designated as Administrative Management, and creating
the job class of Assistant Public Utilities General Manager - Power Resources.
City Manager William Talley clarified for the Mayor that the total cost
package for the new position was $52,884, plus 4%, with a burden of 16% over
that, retirement plus medical coverage, and other insurance amounting to
approximately $9,000. The new assistant would direct the generation projects
of the Utilities Department, as well as other assignments as designated by the
General Manager of Utilities. He also confirmed that at the time the General
Manager came to the Council for approval of the creation of such a position,
it was to be a position from which the General Manager could draw upon to
replace himself. However, during the process and because of salary limita-
tions, they could not find a candidate to fill the requirements and the city's
need for an assistant to eventually replace the General Manager.
The Mayor stated he was goiing to oppose the proposed action based upon some
public comments he had made at the time the Public Utilities General Manager
and City Manager came to the Council to ask for the position to be filled on
the basis that the position would eventually be one to take over the
day-to-day functions of the Department, thereby relieving Mr. Hoyt and
providing for someone to fill his position when he retired. Last Tuesday, he
made it clear he was no longer going to favor what he considered to be
unreasonable and outrageous pay scales, particularly in the management level
(see minutes October 27, 1981). His other reason for opposition was due to
the fact that he had repeated time and again that what was needed in the
81-1339
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3~ 1981~ 1:30 P.M.
Utilities Department was some type of "on-hands" management to cure the types
of problems discussed at the outset of the meeting today (re Utility
billings). Until they instituted some type of management training program to
groom those at the lower levels to move up and assume responsibility, the
Council and citizens were going to be faced with continuing frustrations with
the Utilities Department.
Councilman Overholt offered Resolution No. 81R-520 for adoption, amending
Resolution No. 81R-499 which established rates of compensation for classes
designated as administrative management, and creating the job class of
Assistant Public Utilities General Manager-Power Resources. Refer to

The Mayor declared Resolution No. 81R-520 duly passed and adopted.
105/101: CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE - ANAHEIM (CALIFORNIA) STADIUM, INC.: On
motion by Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilwoman Kaywood, the Conflict of
Interest Code adopted by the Board of Directors of the City of Anaheim
(California) Stadium, Inc. was approved, as recommended in memorandum dated
October 26, 1981 from City Attorney William Hopkins. MOTION CARRIED.
123: DEVELOPER AGREEMENT - MOH-TAL, INC.: A request for an amendment to the
agreement with Moh-Tal, Inc., relating to resale controls, was submitted.
City Attorney Hopkins explained that there was a question relative to the
provision that the second trust deed be non-forgiveable forever and if the
property was sold in the future, even after the five-year period, to someone
not in a low or moderate income bracket that the trust deed would then be due
and payable.
Mr. Floyd L. Farano, Attorney, 2555 East Chapman, briefed the Council on his
letter requested dated October 23, 1981 (on file in the City Clerk's office),
the purpose of which was to clarify the Council's intent in acting upon a
motion of February 3, 1981 (see Council minutes that date) relative to the
affordable aspects of the project at 715 Webster Street and the resale
controls of that project. The agreement purported to control the sales price
during a five-year period so as to maintain the affordable nature of the
units; however, paragraph 3 of the agreement required a "non-forgiveable"
second trust deed in favor of the Housing Authority in the amount of the
81-1340
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3, 1981, 1:30 P.M.
difference between the sales price and the appraised value of the units.
latter was the point of contention raised by the developer, whether the
Council intended to have the trust deed effective as a lien against the
property past the five-year period.
The
It was Councilwoman Kaywood's opinion that was exactly the case because a 144%
density bonus was allowed. The intent was that it not be permitted to be a
quick five-year profit for someone.
Councilman Bay maintained that at the time the discussion took place, they
were still debating and trying to set a time period and the arguments went
from five to fifteen years. In his opinion, he did not believe the Council
set five years, nor did they have the intent of putting controls on forever on
anything. He felt the Council should now clarify their intent on the non-
forgiveable trust deed in this specific case.
Councilman Roth felt it was clear in the previous minutes (February 3, 1981)
which stated "Councilman Roth stated he did not have any objections to the
five years." He did, however, object to anything over five years.
Councilman Overholt stated on this project that was his recollection and
intent as well; Mayor Seymour stated that was also his intent, that it be a
non-forgiveable trust deed for the first five years.
MOTION: Councilman Seymour moved that the contract be amended to include that
it be a non-forgiveable trust deed for the first five years, deleting
paragraph No. 3 of the development agreement. Councilman Roth seconded the
motion.
Before a vote was taken, additional discussion, debate and questioning between
the Council, staff and the developer, Mohammad Mahpar and Mr. Farano took
place.
Councilwoman Kaywood pointed out that on February 3, 1981 the vote was a 5-0
'~es" vote. She would not have voted '~es" had it been for five years with a
144% density bonus.
At the conclusion of discussion, a vote was taken on the foregging motion.
Councilwoman Kaywood and Councilman Bay voted 'bo". MOTION CARRIED.
105: APPOINTMENT TO THE REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION: Councilman Seymour moved
to consider the appointment of a Redevelopment Commissioner at this time.
Councilman Overholt seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Mayor Seymour opened nominations for an appointment to the Redevelopment
Commission to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Mr. Ian Skidmore
for the term ending June 30, ~1985.
Councilman Roth nominated Mr. Doug Renner.
81-1341
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3, 1981, 1:30 P.M.
Councilwoman Kaywood moved to close nominations. Councilman Bay seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Mr. Renner was thereuon appointed to the Redevelopment Commission.
Councilman Overholt moved to cast a unanimous ballot appointing Mr. Doug
Rennet to the Redevelopment Commission for the term ending June 30, 1985.
MOTION CARRIED.
105: STATEMENT OF ECONOMIC INTERESTS AND DECLARATION OF ASSETS WITHIN PROJECT
ALPHA - EARL C. MCBURNEY: City Clerk Linda Roberts announced that in accord-
ance with the Political Reform Act and the Health and Safety Code, newly
appointed Planning Commissioner, Earl C. McBurney, had filed his Statement of
Economic Interests and Declaration of Assets located within Project Alpha.
173: APPLICATION OF FOR TAXI SERVICE: An application by Dr. John Nahavandi
and Jorge N. Juan, Union Taxi/Limousine/Tours, requesting a permit to operate
a taxi service, was submitted.
The City Clerk referred to letter dated October 30, 1981 from the Yellow Cab
Company, Larry Slagle, Vice President, requesting that consideration of the
subject application be continued to November 24, 1981, rather than
November 17, 1981'as requested by the applicant, as he would be out of town
and unable to give input on November 17.
Councilman Roth moved to continue consideration of the subject application for
taxi service to November 24, 1981. Councilman Bay seconded the motion.
MOTION CARRIED.
173: APPLICATION FOR LIMOUSINE SERVICE PERMIT: An application by Joseph P.
Osborn, A-1 Limousine, requesting a permit to operate a limousine service, was
submitted.
Councilman Roth moved to approve a limousine service permit submitted by
Joseph P. Osborn, A-1 Limousine, 1402 South Knott Street, as recommended in
memorandum dated October 28, 1981 from the License Collector, Cordelia Short,
in accordance with Anaheim Municipal Code Section 4.72.020. Councilman
0verholt seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilwoman Kaywood asked if notices had been sent
to residents within 300 feet since she had received constant complaints on the
matter; City Clerk Roberts explained that such notification is not required,
however notification to other public transportation companies is required and
was sent.
Mr. Joseph Osborn, 1402 South Knott Street, stated that since the previous
hearings when the Council approved his operation under a Home Occupation
Permit, he did not believe any complaints had been filed; Annika Santalahti,
Assistant Director for Zoning, reported that they had not received any recent
complaints. They had received some but were never able to verify them, and
Mr. Osborn, in fact, still had a valid Home Occupation Permit.
81-1342
City Hall, Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3, 1981, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Osborn explained that he was operating three vehicles at the time the Home
Occupation Permit was granted, but he had since cut down to one vehicle which
he and his son drove. Mayor Seymour asked if he would stipulate that he would
operate only one vehicle for as long as his license was in effect. Although
the neighborhood had not been notified, and he felt they should have been, he
was willing to approve the application as long as Mr. Osborn would stipulate
to one vehicle only. If he wanted two vehicles, he would then want to hear
from the neighbors.
Mr. Osborn agreed to the stipulation and stated he would be happy to have
notification sent to everybody in the neighborhood and not just those within
300 feet should he apply for more than one vehicle in the future.
Councilman Roth accepted the stipulation as part of his motion of approval and
Councilman Overholt accepted it in his second.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion. MOTION CARRIED.
108: HEARING - STAR VOYAGER AMUSEMENT CENTER: An appeal of the decision of
the Planning Director denying an Amusement Devices Permit Application for the
Star Voyager Amusement Center, 2816 West Lincoln Avenue for 20 amusement
devices, was submitted.
The decision of the Planning Director was appealed by the applicant, Farshid
Tahvildari, and hearing scheduled for this date.
Mr. Farshid Tahvildari spoke in defense of locating the proposed amusement
center at 2816 West Lincoln Avenue and questioned why his application was
denied when one was approved for Shakey's Pizza across the street.
The Mayor explained the procedure followed under Ordinance No. 4239 which was
adopted on July 14, 1981, relative to permits for amusement arcades (see
memorandum dated October 30, 1981 from the Planning Department with regard to
the sub3ect request for permit--on file in the City Clerk's office). The new
procedure gave the Planning Director the authority to deny such a permit
should a majority protest (51%) be received from residents and business
tenants within 300 feet of the proposed arcade. In this case, the application
was opposed by 79 people, or 62%.
The following people then spoke in oppositon to the granting of an amusement
devices permit under the subject application, their main reasons being their
concern over potential vandalism to cars and real property, the security of
older people when walking the area, the business would not add anything to the
community, the adjacent apartment complex was very well kept and the proposed
business would bring a number of teenagers into the area who would do damage
to the premises: Mr. Herb Steele, 2828 West Lincoln, Apt. 331, spokesman for
the apartment complex; Mrs. Raymond Anderson, 2828 West Lincoln; there were six
people present in opposition including Mrs. Anderson as evidenced by a show of
hands.
81-1343
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3~ 1981, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Tahvildari then offered some comments in rebuttal.
MOTION: Councilman Seymour moved to uphold the Planning Director's denial of
the application for an Amusment Devices Permit for the Star Voyager Amusement
Center, 2816 West Lincoln Avenue. Councilman Bay seconded the motion. MOTION
CARRIED.

and Councilwoman Kaywood both extended congratulations and commendations to
anyone and everyone connected with this year's outstanding Halloween Festival.
114: MITO SISTER CIIY GIFT OF TREES: Councilman Overholt stated since he
would be leaving on Saturday, November 7, 1981 for Mito, Japan with the Sister
City Exchange Committee, he would like to be able to present to Mayor Wada the
recommendation contained in memorandum dated October 30, 1981 (on file in the
City Clerk's office) from the Deputy City Manager relative to the $10,000
which Mayor Wada presented to the City under our Sister City Program to
purchase trees and plant them in Anaheim, contingent upon City Council
approval.
MOTION: Councilman Seymour moved that Councilman Overholt present staff's
proposal as contained in memorandum dated October 30, 1981 to Mayor Wada of
Mito, Japan regarding the planting of "Thunder Cloud" plum trees in the median
on Anaheim Boulevard. Councilman Bay seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
114: COUNCIL MEETING - NOVEMBER 17~ 1981: By general consent, it was deter-
mined that there would be no Council meeting on November 17, 1981 due to an
anticipated lack of a quorum on that date.
107: TASK FORCE PROPOSED AT THE OCTOBER 27~ 1981 DISCUSSION ON A HOME OCCU-
PANCY INSPECTION PROGRAM: At the request of Councilman Bay, Planning Director
Ron Thompson reported on the status of the formation of a Task Force as
approved at the meeting of October 27, 1981 (see minutes that date--Re:
Discussion of a Home Occupancy Inspection Program as requested by the Patrick
Henry Neighborhood Council).
81-1348
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 3, 1981, 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Bay also clarified that his intention in setting up the Task Force
was to try to have the representation even on both sides. When he indicated
that there were to be two owners from the area, they were to be apartment
owners in the Robin, Wren, Bluejay, Chevy Chase area within the 94 units.
Mr. Thompson explained that in setting up the Task Force, there was a question
and discussion on that point. The impression was that the intent was an
apartment owner from the Patrick Henry area and one from the Citron Neighbor-
hood Council Target Area.
Councilman Bay was agreeable that there be one owner representative from each
of those areas instead of two from the Patrick Henry area only. He wanted to
be certain the apartment owners' side of the issue was brought out.
107: MOBILEHOME ORDINANCE REPORT: Councilwoman Kaywood asked the Planning
Director if the subject report was scheduled to be submitted next week.
Planning Director Ron Thompson answered "no". A comprehensive report sub-
mitted the latter part of September contained a number of alternatives for
Council consideration. They were in the process of giving the Council a
status report, since they had been informed that there were two other parks
that issued letters to their tenants relative to conversion. The report would
include the environmental status of the Shorb-Wells property indicating the
cost involved.
The Mayor stated it was important that when the Council considered a General
Plan Amendment to consider what they called '~obilehome park" zoning, it ought
to consider its options on a relocation park, because that was going to have a
lot to do with which parks were or were not going to be converted. They
should come in tandem and just as soon as possible.
REQUEST FOR CLOSED SESSION: The City Attorney requested a Closed Session to
discuss litigation and personnel matters with potential litigation with no
action anticipated.
Councilman Roth moved to recess into Closed Session. Councilman Bay seconded
the motion. MOTION CARRIED. (7:51 P.M.)
AFTER RECESS: Mayor Seymour called the meeting to order, all Council Members
being present. (8:12 P.M.)
ADJOURNMENT: Councilman Roth moved to adjourn. Councilman Bay seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED. (8:12 P.M.)
