with family--the next three lines ~where it stated, "as distinguished from a
club...or h~tel", after the word "fraternity", add "sorority, hotel, or rehabil-
itation facility".
80-908
City Hall~ Anaheim~ .California - COUNCIL MINUTE~ - July 15~ 1980~ 1:30 P.M.
City Attorney Hopkins, in answer to the Mayor, stated he had reviewed the matter
with the City Attorney of Santa Barbara who was considering an appeal to the
U. S. Supreme Court, but the possibility of success was somewhat questionable
because the decision was based on independent State grounds. The other alter-
native was to seek a Constitutional amendment stating that nothing shall inter-
fere with the City defining "family". This was an interim definition, and he
agreed with Councilman Bay that the additional items, fraternity, sorority and
rehabilitation facility would make it more complete. He recommended that the
amended first reading be approved.
MOTION: Councilman Bay moved that Ordinance No. 4147 read as follows in the
aforementioned paragraph "...fraternity, sorority, hotel, or rehabilitation
facility." Councilman Overholt seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Councilman Bay, thereupon, offered Ordinance No. 4147 for amended first reading.
ORDINANCE NO. 4147: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM AMENDING SECTION
18.01.070 OF CHAPTER 18.01, TITLE 18, OF THE ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING
TO ZONING.
Mayor Seymour referred to the memorandum addressed to Councilwoman Kaywood
from Miss Santalahti indicating that the 300-square foot per occupant regula-
tion in the Uniform Building Code could be used to enforce what they heretofore
enforced through an ordinance required to be changed because of the State
Supreme Court decision. If 300 square feet per occupant, and he had a 1500-
square foot home wherein five people could reside and he had four children
including he and his wife, did that mean they would be in violation of the
Building Code.
Mr. Hopkins answered that technically that would be correct, and he believed
that was why that particular section had not been enforced. It was done on the
basis of complaints and normally in those situations, they would not take enforce-
ment action.
Councilman Bay asked what would happen if on a complaint to enforce the 300-square
foot per occupant and it was not a family under the old definition, but it was
under the new, and in court the defendant's lawyer stated that they were not
enforcing the Code on families throughout the rest of the City, would that stand
up in court.
City Attorney Hopkins stated he would question whether or not that particular
section could be enforced. The interim definition of "family" directly quoted
the Supreme Court decision as far as that was concerned and thus, they had a
good chance of enforcing that aspect. Relative to the 300-square foot per
occupant, they would have to test that in court.
The Mayor stated it seemed they would want to find another way to go in this
case.
City Attorney Hopkins stated they were seeking an additional means of enforce-
ment and had contacted the California League of Cities, as well as making other
~nquiries to see if they could come up with something better. This was an in-
terim measure. If Santa Barbara was successful in what they were doing or in
getting a Constitutional amendment underway, that might solve the problem.

123: PRODUCTION OF COMPUTER OUTPUT MICROFILM CATALOGS (COM): On motion by
Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilman Overholt, a contract with Baker & Taylor
Company was authorized for the production of computer-output-microfilm catalogs
~COM)for library holdings; estimated cost of contract, $61,606 as recommended

123/155: PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONFOR ENTRY LEVEL POLICE OFFICERS: Agreement with
psychologist Eric W. Gruver, PhD., at a cost of $350 per candidate for psycholo-
gical evaluation of entry level police officer applicants, and $60 per hour for
testimony, if required, for the period ending July 31, 1981.
Councilman Roth asked if staff had evaluated the performance of Dr. Gruver rela-
tive to the numbers of people who had been declined and how that corresponded
to other cities also performing psychological testing.
Garry McRae, Human Resources Director explained that they had not evaluated how
Anaheim compared to other cities pass-fail rate. They had, however, evaluated
80-890
City Hall, Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15~ 1980~ 1:30 P.M.
Dr. Gruver's performance on the basis of the thoughtful evaluations he had made.
His recommendations were evaluated by a group which included the Police Chief,
Risk Manager and the Human Resources Department and in every case, they had
supported recommendations made. The rate of applicants who passed was somewhere
between two-thirds and three-fourths. They had been very satisfied with his
performance as a psychologist and felt his work was intensive, in-depth and
very professional.
Councilman Roth was concerned that perhaps Anaheim's requirements were more
stringent relative to Dr. Gruver's recommendations to staff. Some time he
would like to see an evaluation of Anaheim's psychological testing procedures
vs. another city also utilizing such testing to ascertain a comparison, percentage-
wise.
Mayor Seymour asked, of the total candidates interviewed statistically what
percentage were rejected purely as a result of psychological testing; Mr.
McRae reported that there were 14 who failed out of 37 candidates.
City Manager William Talley stated that they could provide the Council with a
report after the November class of police officers which would give approximately
a year of experience under the program.
The Mayor stated that he was certain the Council would be interested. Further,
although he understood Councilman Roth's concerns, he felt they should continue
to maintain as high a standard as possible, and he did not feel uncomfortable at
all with the type of failure rate reported.
MOTION: Councilman Overholt moved to authorize an agreement with psychologist
Eric W. Gruver, PhD., at a a cost of $350 per candidate for psychological eval-
uation of entry level police officer applicants, and $60 Per hour for testimony,
if required, for the period ending July 31, 1981, as recommended in memorandum
dated July 9, 1980 from Police Chief George Tielsch. Councilwoman Kaywood
seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
155: REVISION OF EIR GUIDELINES: Councilwoman Kaywood offered Resolution No.

MOTION CARRIED.
175: REVISION OF WATER RATES AND FEES: Amending rates, rules and regulations
for the sale and distribution of water (continued from the meeting of July 8,
1980--see minutes that date).
Public Utilities General Manager Gordon Hoyt reported that pursuant to the
Council's instruction the previous week, they made a quick review of the water
rate making processes of some Orange County water districts. He also distri-
buted documentation to the Council which contained, among other things, a
Monthly Water Bill Comparison for the single-family residential customer, five-
eighths inch meter--2,000 cubic feet, high elevation pumping surcharge expla-
nation CJuly 15, 1980 memo from the Utilities Rate Requirement Manager) for
the Cities of Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank and Los Angeles, individual explan-
atory sheets regarding the setting of water rates for the Cities of Garden
Grove, Yorba Linda (Yorba Linda Water District), Santa Aha, La Palma, Fountain
Valley, Buena Park, Fullerton, Orange and the Southern California Water
Company and also a booklet entitled, "Orange County Water Rates Survey Prepared
By The Municipal Water District of Orange County and the Orange County Water
Association--May 1980" (on file in the City Clerk's office). In summary, Mr.
HQyt stated they found that Anaheim's water rates for the average residential
80-892
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California T, ,COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15~ 1980, 1:30 P.M.
consumer were among the lowest in Orange County. He then referred to a posted
chart graphically showing Anaheim's proposed rates, (average customer monthly
consumption of 2,000 cubic feet) and those of other utilities. As consumption
increased, an increasing number of other utilities started to go higher than
Anaheim and he explained why that was so, the key being that Anaheim tried
to construct water rates based on the cost to provide service. He then briefed
the Council on the City's rate structure.
After Mr. Hoyt's presentation, Mr. Darrell Ament, Utilities Management Services
Manager, then briefed the Council on the findings relative to the rate making
process in various cities which information was provided in the aforementioned
sheets.
Mr. Ray Auerbach, Water Engineering Manager, then explained that one of the
major factors in the cost of water rates was actually the amount each agency
paid for their water which totalled approximately 50% of their budget. In
most cases, the amount was determined mainly by the amount of water pumped
from the underground basin which was much cheaper than purchasing from the
Metropolitan Water District (MW-D). On the chart--monthly water bill comparison--
all of the agencies in the lower end of the scale were heavy water pumpers over-
lying the major portion of the Orange County Water Basin, including Anaheim.
The City's capabilities were limited to about 70% of its total production from
wells. Garden Grove had drilled wells in previous years and had been able to
do so thus far. H~ever, considering the location of Anaheim within the basin
in the Canyon area past Tustin Avenue, they could not pump water. Water sold
in that area of the City was purchased water from MWD, and thus more expensive,
which was one of the major factors affecting water rates. Another factor was
the actual elevation of the ground water in relation to the ground surface. He
explained the variation which occurred over different areas of the City and made
a comparison to other cities as well. He emphasized that ground water was of
great benefit to any City that could pump it. Most of the cities in the South
County did not have ground water to pump and purchased their water totally from
the MWD, and thus were on the upper end of the monthly water bill comparison
chart.
The actual shape of the City also had an effect on rates. Because of the difference
~n terrain from Anaheim's east city boundary to the west, it cost more for trans-
mission mains in order to get the water across the City. Another item of consi-
deration was the actual elevation of the City itself. The high elevation surcharge
covered areas essentiallly over 600 feet. The gravity system extended from an
elevat%on of approximately 600 feet down to an elevation of 50 feet and thus
'~here was a 550-foot differential in elevation requiring a great many pressure
zones. Anaheim had approximately 20 such zones, whereas many of the other local
cities had one, two or three in cities to the south, and possibly four or five
in cities to the north.
Councilman Roth noted the following in the Public Utilities Board (PUB) minutes
of June 26, 1980--"...that technically Garden Grove is violating the Orange
County Water District Basin percentage whereby they pumped much more than
what they are allowed to without paying a penalty. It is cheaper for Garden
Grove to pump all the water and pay the penalty than to buy MWD water." He
asked MY. Auerbach to expand on that issue.
80-893
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15, 1980~ 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Auerbach explained that the Orange County Water District each year adopted
a base percentage which in the past five years had been between 60 and 70%.
Garden Gove pumped 90% of their water or more, technically in violation. The
Orange County Water District Act provided for penalties charging an additional
fee on top of the pump tax but in the final analysis, Garden Grove still pumped
water cheaper even with the penalties. Anaheim could also do so to a lesser
extent and had done so in the past. Paying the penalty was cheaper than buying
water and, in turn, the Water District could buy more water with those penalty
fees which were based on the actual cost for pumping water.
Councilman Roth suggested Mr. Auerbach look into the matter to be sure there
was equality among all cities belonging to the MWD to prellude one city from
gaining an advantage over another city.
Mr. Hoyt stated that he would be happy to share Councilman Roth's concern with
the City's representative on the Orange County Water District, Gus Lenain.
Councilman Bay asked Mr. Hoyt if, in his opinion, the pumping ability of Garden
Grove was the most significant factor in having one of the lowest water rates
or was it much more significant that the City had built up a reserve and they
were using it up.
Mr. Hoyt answered in the limited time they had to evaluate the situation, he
believed the most significant point according to their staff was that they had
been over-collecting so that they could build up a sizable reserve. What they
were achieving was a very desirable rate stability. Whether they deliberately
set about achieving that reserve, he did not know.
Councilman Bay stated he was only interested in how Anaheim could cut down its
rates. In looking over most of the cities that were compared with Anaheim, he
asked if, in general, they found the most significant factor to be that most of
the cities did not use a cost of service rate; Mr. Hoyt answered there were
no other cities in Orange County that charged on the basis of cost of service.
Councilman Bay stated they were looking for the two reasons for the increases
in rates other than the cost of water and it seemed to him they were caused by
the decision to institute more honest and fair charging to all users by cost
of service, and Anaheim seemed to be the only city doing so. When they answered
the calls of their constituents as to why rates were going up, they could answer,
because they had gone t~ honest and fair charging by cost of use; Mr. Hoyt con-
firmed that was correct.
Mr. Robert Erickson, Utilities Rate Requirement Manager, then briefed the Council
on his memorandum dated July 15, 1980--high elevation pumping surcharge, which
was a part of the aforementioned documentation.
Councilman Roth then stated that his question the previous week was not about
the surcharge, but the charge over and above that for the electricity to pump
the water to high elevations.
Mr. Erickson stated considering the 22% facility surcharge as part of the water
bill, currently for the average customer using 2,000 cubic feet, the monthly
rate would be $9.46.' In the proposed high elevation pumping surcharge, the new
rate including the 22% surcharge would be $13.63 representing an increase of 44%.
80-894
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15~ 1980, 1:30 P.M.
In concluding, Mr. Hoyt recommended the proposed resolution be approved in
accordance with the recommendations of the PUB in their memorandum dated July 1,
1980, however, that the effective date of the high elevation pumping surcharge
be made effective for service rendered on or after October 1, 1980, and the
remaining changes in rates be made effective for services rendered on or after
July 15, 1980.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT - CATEGORICAL EXEMPTION: On motion by Councilwoman
Kaywood, seconded by Councilman Overholt, the City Council ratified the determination
that the proposed activity fails within Section 21080 (8) of the Public Resources
Code of the State of California and thus the establishment of these rates and fees
are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act. MOTION CARRIED.
Councilman Overholt offered Resolution No. 80R-304 for adoption, amending rates,
rules and regulations for the sale and distribution of water. Refer to
Resolution Book.
RESOLUTION NO. 80R-304: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM

AND 79R-643.
Before a vote was taken, Mayor Seymour stated he appreciated the work that Mr.
Hoyt and his staff accomplished in the last week. Although they would all like
to vote "no" on increases, now they should be able to justify it in their minds
and subsequently be able to explain to their constituents how Anaheim set its
rates.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing resolution.

the period ending June 30, 1981, as recommended in memorandum dated July 7,
1980 from the Public Utilities Board, was approved. MOTION CARRIED.
175: CONTINUED PARTICIPATION IN THE CALIFORNIA COAL PROJECT: A recommendation
from the Public Utilities Board to authorize a letter agreement with the Southern
California Edison Company, in an amount not to exceed $60,000, for the continued
participation in the Study and Notice of Intention Processing of the California
Coal Project for a period ending January 31, 1981 and authorizing the General
Manager to execute same, was submitted. (See memorandum of July 7, 1980 from
the PUB containing detailed data on the matter.)
Councilman Roth reported that the subject was discussed at the Friday, July 11,
1980 meeting of the South Coast Air Quality Management Board. He noted that by
the time the project is online, estimated to be from 1991 to 1993, the facility
would experience some rapid changes because of synthetic fuels that would be
available at that time. He referred to information contained in the report
that the South Coast Air Quality staff intended to vigorously oppose in the
attempt to utilize the proposed site for that type coal plant. He was concerned
about Anaheim allocating more dollars into the project while there was a question
as to whether or not it would ever get approval in California unless synthetic
fuels were used. He questioned whether it would be a wise decision to proceed.
Mr. Hoyt stated it was difficult to answer with any certainty, but he believed it
to be worthwhile to go forward and license the project if it was licenseable.
At the time the Sun Desert Project was considered by the California Energy
Commission [CEC), there was a bill, AB 1852, that went through the Legislature
that provided if there was no alternate to that nuclear project, then the State
must l~cense Sun Desert. During those hearings, members of the Air Resources
Board and the Energy Commission appeared and testified that there would be no
problem with burning coal in California, but whatever problems there were could
be overcome and it was possible not only to site a coal plant in California, but
it was preferable to siting a nuclear plant. As they went through the Notice of
Intent (NOI) proceedings before the CEC, they were hearing that perhaps some of
the things testified to so strongly before, may not be as clear cut as it appeared
in previous testimony.
At some point, they had to go through the process and determine once and for all,
could there be a coal-fired electric plant in California. If no, they would have
at least spent their share of the money to find out. He 'felt it was money well
spent to see if they would be able to do it. They should go forward, and it was
a prudent investment for a utility t0 make according to its size, and it was an
investment proportionate to the City's size. If they did not participate in
the various studies, they would n~t be able to participate in any generating
plants constructed as a result of the efforts of the utilities.

Ci.ty Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15~ 1980~ 1:30 P.M.
Before concluding, Councilman Bay stated that he read where General Motors was
expecting to put an electric car online before 1985. He wanted to know if they
had made any "guesstimates" as to how the effect of that development would
increase the needs in the electric utility between now and 1990.
Mr. Hoyt answered that they had not done so because it was so far off. They felt
that when the electric car came into its own, it would be a gradual transition.
It appeared during that transition, the electrical load it would create would
essentially be an off-peak load. It would have a marked effect on the industry
because it would mean their units would keep running at full capacity for a
longer time resulting in increased maintenance, perhaps increased reserves,
etc. He reiterated that they had made no specific provisions in their resource
plans to accommodate the electric cars.
105: APPOINTMENT TO THE PARK & RECREATION COMMISSION: Councilwoman Kaywood

sions due to vacancies or expiration of terms ending June 30 of the following
years: (continued from meetings of June 24 and July 1 and July 8, 1980).
Community Redevelopment Commission (Dinndorf vacancy)~ Mayor Seymour oPened nominations
to fill the vacancy on the Redevelopment Commission for the term expiring June 30,
1983. He asked for nominations from the Council, working from his left, first
from Councilman Overholt.
Councilman Overholt nominated Mr. Dan Martinez, 5910 Camino Manzano. There were
no other nominations.
Councilwoman Kaywood moved to close nominations. Councilman Bay seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Mr. Dan Martinez was unanimously appointed to the Community Redevelopment
Commission for the term expiring June 30, 1983.
Community Services Board (Galaviz vacancy): (term expiring June 30, 1982)
Councilman Roth nominated Mr. Bill Looper; Councilman Bay nominated Mr. Frank
Cozza. There were no other nominations.
Councilwoman Kaywood moved to close nominations. Councilman Bay seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.
A roll call vote was taken on the nomination of Bill Looper:
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Roth
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Overholt, Kaywood, Bay and Seymour
80-899
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15~ 1980, 1:30 P.M.
A roll call vote was then taken on the nomination of Frank Cozza:
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Overholt, Kaywood, Bay, Roth and Seymour
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: None
Mr. Frank Cozza was unanimously appointed to the Community Services Board, for
the term expiring June 30, 1982.
Plannin~ Commission: (term expiring June 30, 1984) Councilman Overholt nom-
inated Mrs. Mary Bouas; Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the nomination.
Councilman Roth stated that due to the fact that the Mayor called for nominations
first for the Redevelopment Commission, it did not give him an opportunity to
speak on the matter of a Planning Commissioner for the City. He was deeply
concerned that they did not get any equal opportunity to nominate a person to
the Planning Commission first, because there were several people who indicated
by putting their names in nomination that they either had the option first to
serve on the Planning Commission or Redevelopment Commission. For that reason,
he was disappointed that he was not able to nominate a person whom he considered
to be avery outstanding young man for the vacancy on that commission--Mr. Dan
Martinez. He was certain his colleagues on the Council were familiar with the
fact that Mr. Martinez was a very qualified man. He had worked for Disneyland
in the Marketing Division for the last eight years. He was also the'owner of
a very successful restaurant in the City and a gentleman who had the ability
and understanding both from the citizen standpoint and also from a local small
businessman standpoint. Mr. Jack Lindquist of Disneyland was most supportive
of Mr. Martinez, as well as Mr. Jim Garber, Director of Marketing at Disneyland,
Carolyn Gillespie, Assistant Administrator of Anaheim Memorial Hospital, Herb
Leo, Alan Hughes, and "Red" Patterson, to name a few. Fred Brown withdrew
his request as a potential appointee to the Planning Commision and subsequently
suppported Mr. Martinez. The Dfsneyland people were the givers in the community
and never asked for anything special and they were a prime example of good
citizenship. He would like to see Dan Martinez put in a position of greater
responsibility other than the Redevelopment~Commission and that would be on the
Planning Commission, and he thereupon nominated him as an appointee to the
Planning Commission.
Mayor Seymour acknowleged his nomination and then apologized to Councilman Roth
in the event he was dissatisfied that they did not fill the vacant seat on the
Planning Commission first. He was merely following the agenda and had no intent
of shortcutting his (Roth's) strong feelings about a very qualified individual.
Councilman Bay had no name to offer in nomination to the Planning Commission;
Mayor Seymour nominated Mr. Earl McBurney, who he considered to be extremely well
qualified for the Planning Commission. He had served for three years on the
Planning Commission of Buena Park and 23 years in his chosen profession of Land
Surveyor and Civil Engineer and thus most knowledgeable with development, partic-
ularly as it pertained to development in the slopes and hillsides. The position
was extremely critical, not that the other nominees were not qualified. However,
as he reviewed the fine qualifications of the applicants, he felt that Mr. McBurney
stood very tall among them.
80-900
City Hall, Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15~ 1980~ 1:30 P.M.
Councilwoman Kaywood moved to close nominations. Councilman Roth seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Mayor Seymour announced that they had three nominations for the position of
Planning Commissioner, Mary Bouas, Dan Martinez and Earl McBurney and, there-
fore, he would call the roll in that order.
Councilman Overholt first stated that since he nominated Mr. Martinez for the
Redevelopment Commission, he wished to make a statement. He, too, was tremen-
dously impressed with Mr. Martinez's qualifications. The reason he nominated
him for Redevelopment was that he felt on that commission, he would get the
kind of experience which he had not had in City activities that would even
better qualify him to take on greater responsibility. One of the present
Council Members, Councilman Bay, acquired his experience on that Commission.
His nomination of Dan Martinez to that Commission should be taken as a very
positive compliment to his qualifications.
Councilman Roth stated that people were elected to the Council without serving
on any commissions and boards.
A roll call vote was then taken on Mrs. Mary Bouas:
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Overholt, Kaywood and Bay
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Roth and Seymour
Mayor Seymour then stated he would like the entire roll to be called so that the
votes could be recorded, the next being Dan Martinez.
Councilwoman Kaywood interjected and questioned if Mr. Martinez had already been
appointed to the Redevelopment Commission, how he could also be appointed to the
Planning Commission.
The Mayor explained that technically if he were to get the votes, and he doubted
that he was going to, because there were already three votes for Mrs. Bouas, he
would have the option of resigning the appointment to the Redevelopment Commission.
Councilwoman Kaywood considered the procedure to be a very unusual move and one
that had not occurred in the six years she had served with the Mayor; the Mayor
stated he just wanted the record to reflect how the Council Members felt.
Councilwoman Kaywood found the situation to be strange because someone had already
been appointed.
Mayor Seymour stated that nobody had been appointed as yet. If she would wait
until the polling was done and give him an opportunity to conclude the process,
she would not feel it so strange.
Councilman Bay stated he felt the procedure was a new and different process. His
experience on the Council was that when there was a majority vote, they did not
go on through the rest of the candidates.
The Mayor asked if his colleagues would be patient, rather than being so politically
sensitive, perhaps they could get there. He proceeded to ask for a roll call on
Mr. Martinez.
80-901
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15~ 1980, 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Bay interjected and appealed the decision of the Chair.
Mayor Seymour stated that he felt he had the right, or any other Council Member
as well, to call for a roll call on anything they chose.
Councilman Bay, speaking to the City Attorney, stated he was appealing the
decision of the Chair and calling for a vote on the ruling of the appeal to
the decision of the Chair based on past Council action. The first person
receiving a majority vote was the appointee, and there were no following votes
He felt that would be the ruling in this case and that the item was actually
closed once there was a three-to-two vote on the first candidate.
City Attorney Hopkins stated that the statement he made was correct as far as
the vote of three-to-two on the first nominee. However, he saw nothing objec-
tionable about an additional vote being requested by the Chairman if he asked
for an additional vote.
Councilman Bay asked if the appeal to the decision of the Chair should not be
voted on by the Council in a majority ruling; Mr. Hopkins answered "yes".
MOTION: Councilman Bay then called for a vote on the ruling of the Chair. He
moved to appeal the decision of the Chair and called for a vote from the Council
on the procedure. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion.
Before action was taken, Councilman Roth stated it was his understanding that
the Council was not governed by any rules, Roberts Rules, or any others.
City Attorney Hopkins confirmed that was correct and that the Council could
make its own rules.
Councilman Overholt stated he was opposed to the motion. He had no concern
about having his vote recorded and was going to vote "no" on Mr. Martinez for
the reasons he previously stated and "no" on Mr. McBurney because he was
supportive of Mrs. Bouas for the position. He did not feel a "no" vote for
Mr. Martinez for the Planning Commission was meant to be degrading of him or
Mr. McBurney, and he felt Mr. Martinez would better serve on the Redevelopment
Commission at this time.
The Mayor stated he was going to oppose the motion as well. He found no difficulty
whatsoever in recording publicly his decision or his vote. He found it almost
embarassing that two members of the Council would find it necessary to block a
public recording of a vote. He did not feel any worse about Mrs. Bouas or Mr.
Martinez who Councilman Roth felt was a very qualified candidate and if he
troth) should choose to vote "no" on Mr. McBurney, who he (Seymour) nominated,
he would respect that vote. He was only trying to get a vote as a matter of
public record. He would not deprive anyone from calling for a roll call on
anything and to try to block such a public recording was immature. If they
were that politically sensitive, he suggested a search of conscience.
Councilman Bay stated that was not the issue, but it was whether they did one
thing one time as a routine when making appointments, and then suddenly change
that routine and do something different.
80-902
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 1/~ 1980~ 1:30 P.M.
The Mayor stated he did not recall at anytime on any issue when any individual
who asked for a roll call vote on any matter had been denied that right. Because
it had never been asked for in the past, obviously there was great unanimity or
support for one or the other but to try to block the simple process of recording
a vote, he found that distasteful.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion by Councilman Bay.
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Kaywood and Bay
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Overholt, Roth and Seymour
A roll call vote was then taken on the nomination of Dan Martinez to the Planning
Co-m, ission:
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Roth
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Overholt, Kaywood, Bay and Seymour
Councilwoman Kaywood stated she voted for Mr. Martinez for the Redevelopment
Commission. She did not know him and her "no" vote in no way could be taken
as a vote against him, because he was already appointed to the Redevelopment
Commission.
A roll call vote was then taken on the nomination of Earl McBurney:
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Seymour
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Overholt, Kaywood, Bay and Roth
Councilwoman Kaywood stated the same was true of Mr. McBurney as was true of
Mr. Martinez. She did not know him, never met him and questioned how publicly
embarassing him was going to serve a purpose.
MOTION: Councilman Seymour moved that Mrs. Bouas be unanimously appointed to
the Planning Commission to succeed Amin David, for the term expiring June 30,
1984. Councilman Bay seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Councilman Roth asked to have a verbatim transcript of the portion of the
meeting starting with the nomination to the Redevelopment Commission and ending
with the Planning Commission nomination and final appointment.
Youth Commission: (terms expiring December 31, 1982, Murphy and Rangel vacancies)
City Clerk Roberts announced that a letter was received late this afternoon
from Scott Freeman expressing his desire to serve on the Commission, and was
duplicated for the Council.
Councilman Bay nominated Lisa Kaplan.
Councilman Overholt nominated Anne Burke, provided she was a resident of the City,
which was a requirement. However, they had no indication in their documentation
if she was in fact a resident.
Councilwoman Kaywood then stated she found it interesting that nobody was allowed
to just nominate, but that the Mayor chose the direction that it would come from
and who could go first. She found his handling of the nominations to be inter-
esting, and she did not like the way he was handling them, leading and turning and
twisting things into political ramifications.
80-903
City Hall~ Anaheim~ Califg~.nia' - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15, 1980, 1:30 P.M.
There were no other nominations.
Councilman Roth moved to close nominations. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Lisa Kaplan and Anne Burke (subject to residency) were appointed to the Youth
Commission, for the terms ending December 31, 1982.
Later in the meeting, Councilman Overholt recalled the comment he made the prior
week about how flattering he thought it was that they had so many fine letters of
application and recommendations for the various positions they found themselves
charged with filling that day. He wished all the appointees well and to those
others who applied and who were not appointed at this time, he urged them to
reapply in the future. He considered it a tribute to the community that there
were so many citizens who were willing to give up their time and energy and
to add their talent to serve the City. He expressed his appreciation to the
entire community for their participation in the process, including all of he
Council Members.
Councilwoman Kaywood also stated that she was pleased with the number of letters
received from people who were interested in serving and that it was very fine for
the City to have such a list on hand.
150: ICHTHUS ASSOCIATES INC.: Request of Mr. Frank Moore, for use of Twila
Reed Park on July 26, 1980, and Mattie Lou Maxwell Park on September 27, 1980,
to conduct summer concerts to foster religious activities, was submitted.
Mr. Frank Moore, 627 Bel Air, Apartment No. 22, indicated his presence.
Mayor Seymour stated he (Moore) was undoubtedly aware of the recommendation from
staff that his request be denied as outlined in the memorandum dated July 8, 1980
from the Deputy City Manager James Ruth.
Mr. Moore asked for the reasons because he had not received that report.
Mr. Moore was then presented with a copy of the report and given some time to
peruse it. The Mayor then explained that staff was recommending that they be
provided the opportunity to use the Pearson Park Theatre, but not the general
park area and that was the bottom line.
Mr. Moore stated that they were hoping to get a park nearer to where they were
based, Pearson Park being the opposite end of Anaheim from their location. He
did not like the wording, "to f~ster religious activities." That was not their
purpose. Instead, they wanted to share the Gospel with people in the park if
they wished to participate. His reason for doing so was to share with people
something he found to be an answer to a number of problems he had in his past
life.
The Mayor asked the difficulty in utilizing the Pearson Park Theatre.
Mr. Moore stated it was mostly because they would be in an area that they were
not associated with. He was also associated with a church and although they were
not trying to make their ranks grow, if people wanted to attend their church, they
w~uld be in an area where they would have access to it.
80-904
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 15, 1980, 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Roth then asked if they used amplifiers and if their presentation was
a combination of music and preaching.
Mr. Moore answered that they did use amplifiers but the music did not reach from
one end of the park to the other. Thus, people who did not wish to participate
would not have to listen. It was a combination of music and preaching. They
were not there to try to force themselves on people, but to share with them if
they wanted to participate.
Councilman Roth stated he was supportive of what Mr. Moore was attempting to do,
but he was not so certain about mixing church and State in this way.
MOTION: Councilwoman Kaywood moved to deny the subject request. Councilman
Overholt seconded the motion.
Before a vote was taken, Councilman Overholt stated that he too was supportive
of what Mr. Moore was trying to do, but on the other hand, the facility at
Pearson Park seemed to be uniquely suited for the type of thing they were doing
without interfering with other people on a Saturday afternoon who were at the
park for a different purpose. When he considered the extensive research that
Park and Recreation went to before they put a facility in or improved a park,
it seemed that the thing to do was have it at Pearson where similar activities
had been held and where it seemed to be compatible with the park and neighbor-
hood. He suggested that Mr. Moore set his sights for a Pearson Park activity
which he would approve.
A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion. MOTION CARRIED.
181: REAPPOINTMENTS TO THE FULLERTON COLLEGE PATRONS OF THE ARTS BOARD: Request
by Fullerton College, Phillip W. Borst, President in letter dated June 26, 1980,
that Mrs. Jane Wolfe and Mrs. Elsie Reed be reappointed to the Fullerton College
Patrons of the Arts Board for two-year terms, was submitted.
On motion by Councilwoman Kaywood, seconded by Councilman Roth, Mrs. Wolfe and
Reed were reappointed to the Board as requested. MOTION CARRIED.
129: PUBLIC FIREWORKS DISPLAY PERMIT: Applications for permits submitted by
Disneyland to discharge fireworks on July 17, 1980, at 3:00 p.m., 9:30 p.m. and
12 midnight, with a request for an exception to the 10:00 p.m. Code limit, were
submitted.
Mr. Fred Duffy, Disneyland representative, clarified that the midnight display
to take place next evening would be entirely silent with no aerial fireworks
of any kind connected with it, whereas the 3:00 p.m request on July 17 would
involve a rather noisy display.
On motion by Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilman Bay, the subject applications
for Public Fireworks Display Permits was approved, as recommended by the Fire
Department. MOTION CARRIED.
105: PROJECT AREA COMMITTEE - RATIFICATION OF APPOINTEE: On motion by Councilman
Bay, seconded by Counci!m~n Roth, the appointment of Don C. Dolphin by the Project
Area Committee to fill the existing Committee vacancy for the term expiring
June 30, 1981, was ratified. MOTION CARRIED.

the Chief of Police, a Public Dance Hall Permit was approved for Cowboy Boogie
Co., dba The Cowboy, 1721 South Manchester Avenue, for dancing seven nights a
.week, from 7:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. CJanet Elizabeth Blanding, applicant)
4. 170: TENTATIVE TRACT NO. 11079: Submitted by Ed and Elsie Carattini, to
establish a l-lot, 12-unit condomimium subdivision on proposed RM-3000 zoned
property located at 3633 West Ball Road.
The City Planning Commission granted Tenative Tract No. 11079, and granted a
negative declaration status.
Councilwoman Kaywood stated that she did not have the minutes from the Planning
Commission meeting of June 30, 1980. She wanted to continue the item one week
so that it could be voted on together with the reclassification and variance.
MOTION: Councilwoman Kaywood moved to continue the item accordingly. The motion
died for lack of a second.
Councilwoman Kaywood then stated when the Council voted on items where they did
not have any information on them, they s~metimes made a mistake, and she wanted
her colleagues to rethink the matter. It would not stop, slow down or do any-
thing else by having the matter wait one week.
Mayor Seymour asked the Assistant Director for Zoning to speak to the matter.
80-906
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL ~INUTES' - July 15, 1980, 1:30 P.M.
Miss Santalahti stated that on tentative tracts, they followed regulations that
were established under the State Subdivision Map Act and the appeal period was
15 days as compared to the 22-day period on zoning. In the subject item, approval
of the tract was subject to the approval of both the reclassification and variance
and would be on the Council agenda next week. If there was a problem with the
reclassification or variance .and they did set it for a hearing and then denied
those items, she did not think the tract map would have any standing because it
would become void by those actions.
Mayor Seymour asked if she was saying by taking no action on the tentative tract
map, that would not preclude the opportunity of denial when they considered the
resolution on zoning, as well as the variance; Miss Santalahti clarified that
was correct.
Mayor Seymour asked if that satisfied Councilwoman Kaywood.
Councilwoman Kaywood answered "no" and asked if it would save time and effort
on the part of the Department to have everything done at the same time.
Miss Santalahti reiterated the situation relative to appeal periods which differed
between the State, a 15-day appeal period on tract maps, and the City, a 22-day
appeal period on reclassifications and variances. They were not happy with
that, but unless the State made the change, she did not think that they were
prepared to do so.
MOTION CARRIED.
Councilwoman Kaywood noted that the record should show an abstention for her on
any vote on Tentative Tract No. 11079.
CONSENT CALENDAR ITEMS: Councilman Overholt offered Resolution Nos. 80R-307
