They further wished to remind the City Council that in the past, the City has, as a co-host, appropriated the sum of $2,000 toward these efforts. Councilman Seymour returned to the Council Chamber. (2:05 P.M.) On motion by Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilman Thom, the City Attorney was directed to prepare a letter agreement showing that the City Council of the City of Anaheim does sanction the Anaheim Halloween Festival Committee as the official entity to carry forward the City's Halloween Festival and, further, that the City of Anaheim would act as co-host for said event. MOTION CARRIED. 77-27 C__ity ~a!l, ~naheim~ California _ COUNCIL MINUTES - Janus!y 11, 1977, .1:30 P...M. The Mayor recognized Mr. Bill P~yne, one of Anaheim's most senior citizens, who gave a brief history of how the annual festival came about and described some of the past celebrations. He urged that the Council not proceed to spend a great deal of money on the event, nor make it a business attraction, but that it be kept fun, as it was in the past. MODJESKA PARK COMMUNITY BUILDINC: (Schematic design plans, estimated construc- tion costs, outline specifications) Councilman Seymour pointed out that there were a number of Amaheim residents in the Chamber who had many questions regard- ing the proposed Modjeska Park Community Building, and they wished to appeal to the Council to hold a night meeting which would allow them and other area residents who have concerns about the project an opportunity to 'discuss it and have their questions answered. He therefore suggested the meeting be held quickly, perhaps one week from this date, so as not to hamper the Federal grant approved for construction of the building. On motion by Councilman Seymour, seconded by Councilwoman Kaywood, consideration of the schematic design plans, estimated construction costs and outline specifica- tions for the Modjeska Park Community Building was continued to January 18, 1977 at 7:00 P.M. MOTION CARRIED. It was noted that the City Council Chamber would most likely be inadequate to accommodate all of the citizens who are interested in discussing the Modjeska Park Co~mnunity Building, and it was suggested that the meeting be held elsewhere. The citizens present indicated they would prefer the meeting be held in the immediate neighborhood near Modjeska Park, at a facility such as the Trident Junior High School multi-purpose room. It was explained that the City would have to determine the availability of that room and also pay a rental fee for it, and that there were no City-owned build- ings in the immediate vicinity of Modjeska Park at which the meeting might be held. Therefore, the Council felt they had no better alternative than the Chartres Recreation Center at 222 East Chartres Street, contingent upon its availability. (Later in the meeting it was reported that the large' meeting area at the Chartres Recreation Center would be available for January 18, 1977 at 7:00 P.M., and the meeting place was confirmed.)

Councilman Roth stated-that the Naval Air Station at Los Alamitos was there long, before any people moved in around it, and that once an area is settled, then the residents work vigorously to close such bases down. He indicated that those interested in the defense of the country should be concerned about the closing of such military establishments. Councilwoman Kaywood reiterated that she wished the City of Anaheim to urge the investigation go forward, and that as a member of the Orange County Division of the League of California Cities, the City should support other-cities with adjoin- ing boundaries.
