ORDINANCE NO. 2038
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM AMENDING
TITLE 1, CHAPTER 1.041, SECTION 1.04.350 OF
THE ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO
OFFICERS AND DEPARTMENTS.
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM DOES FIND
THAT:
WHEREAS, under the terms of the new City Charter of
the City of Anaheim adopted by the voters and to become the
law of the City of Anaheim on ratification by the State Legis-
lature, the number of planning commissioners was established
at the number of seven; and
WHEREAS, the present authorization of planning
commissioners is nine but there are in fact only seven persons
appointed and acting as planning commissioners; and
WHEREAS, it would be in the best interests of the
City to immediately change the number of planning commissioners
from nine to seven.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
ANAHEIM DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1.
That Title 1, Chapter 1.04, Section 1.04.350 of the
Anaheim Municipal Code be and the same is hereby amended to
read as follows:
1°1.04.350 PLANNING COMMISSION CREATED.
"There is hereby created a Planning Commission for
the City of Anaheim, which Planning Commission shall
consist of seven members appointed by the City
Council of the City of Anaheim."
SECTION 2.
This ordinance is hereby declared to be an urgency
measure and shall be in full force and effect immediately upon
its adoption. The facts constituting such urgency are as
follows:
Since the provisions of the Charter of the City which
will go into full force and effect the first part of 1965,
will immediately reduce the number of planning commissioners
from nine to seven, and since there are presently only seven
members of the nine authorized which have been appointed and
• are acting as planning commissioners, it would require the
immediate appointment of two Planning Commission members who
could only serve for a short period until the number is reduced
by the ratification of the Charter. It would appear a useless
-1-
act to appoint two members which would then a very short
• period later require the dismissal of two members from the
Planning Commission and thus cause a certain disruption in
the orderly process of the Planning Commission's functions.
Since there presently are authorized nine members of the
Planning Commission with only seven members appointed and
acting, it becomes more difficult to obtain a quorum and
the transaction of business and it is therefore desirable to
change the authorized number of planning commissioners from
nine to seven. The change of the number of planning commis-
sioners authorized from nine to seven will properly provide
for the orderly transaction of the Planning Commission
business and will be in the best interests of the City of
Anaheim and the citizens thereof.
•
The adoption of this ordinance as an urgency measure
is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public
peace, health, safety and public welfare.
SECTION 3.
The City Clerk shall certify to the passage of this
ordinance and shall cause the same to be published once within
fifteen (15) days after its adoption in the Anaheim Bulletin,
a newspaper of general circulation, printed, published and
circulated in said City, and immediately upon and after its
passage it shall take effect and be in full force.
THE FOREGOING ORDINANCE is approved and signed by me
this 8th day of September, 1964.
