for a total of 26 cars, and it is further proposed that an amount not to exceed

preference other than that the vehicles be of the intermediate compact size model
for economy purposes.

representing the big three American automobile manufacturers, Ford, General Motors
and Chrysler. In addition, an advertisement has been placed in the newspaper

tions can be obtained from the Purchasing Department office.

that requests for waiver of the formal bidding procedure are submitted depending
upon the market and the area from which the City is trying to obtain quotations,
and that a request for waiver of formal bidding process is always presented for
Council decision.

GOLF COURSE AND NEGATIVE NECLARATION: On motion by Councilwoman Kaywood, seconded by
Councilman Roth, the City Council finds that this project will have no significant
effect on the environment and is exempt from the requirement to prepare an environ-
mental impact report based on the following findings made by the City Planning
Commission: that the property is in the PR, Public Recreation Zone and is adjacent
to the "Dad" Miller Golf Course on the south and east; that there is a mobile home
park across Gilbert Street to the west and multi-family residences across Crescent
Avenue to the north; that the property is in the Gilbert retarding basin which is
subject to flooding during major storms, and the establishment of a golf driving
range is appropriate in this location because it would not affect the retarding basin
and would suffer relatively minor damage from flooding; and that the lighting of the
driving range could have a minor impact on the nearby residential property, however
this could be mitigated by a requirement limiting the hours of ume; and, therefore,
77-1262
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 15, 1977, 1:30 P.M.

162: REQUEST TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL - LOUIS DEXTER: Request of Mr. Louis Dexter,
305 North Ranchito Street, dated October 31, 1977, was scheduled for this date and
time.
77-1263
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 15, 1977, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Dexter recommended that the City Council consider establishing a tri-partite
panel consisting of three citizens who would evaluate the relationships between
the Mayor and City Management staff, which in his opinion are deteriorating.
Councilman Kott left the Council Chamber. (2:10 P.M.)
Mr. Dexter gave as rationale for his recommendation that the City management
function has been audited at considerable expense; that as a result of the manage-
ment audit, many department heads and a former City Manager were forced to resign
or were laid off. He stressed that he felt now is the time for an audit of the
policy-making function. He suggested that the panel be made up of someone from
a local university such as UCI or Cai State, preferably in the public administration
or Political Science program; a former City Manager, not particularly associated
with the City of Anaheim and that perhaps one might be recommended by the ICMA;
and the third person should have some corporate executive experience. Mr. Dexter
was of the opinion that such a panel, with some objectivity and detachment, could
produce for the community non-partisan insights into the working relation-
ships between the Mayor and City Manager and his staff.
Councilman Kott returned to the Council Chamber. (2:15 P.M.)
Councilman Roth stated that he had no objections to the recommendation but he
also felt such a review should include Mayor-Council relationships, not just
with the City management. He thereupon moved that the City Council implement
Mr. Dexter's recommendation.
Councilman Roth added that as he understood the proposal, these individuals
would be completely impartial and not connected with the City of Anaheim either
presently or in the past.
Councilwoman Kaywood questioned who would make the choice as to persons on the
panel and how long a study Mr. Dexter envisioned.
Mr. Dexter voiced the opinion that with the kinds of people he has in mind it
would take six months. In addition, he indicated they would probably want some
staff assistance to help them take care of the details.
Concilwoman Kaywood stated that before voting on the proposal, she would first
prefer to know what the cost involved would be and, therefore, indicated it would
be prudent to hold the matter, over one week for full Council. She saw no point in
a study which would not lead to any effective action, it would be an exercise in
futility. In addition, she corrected Mr. Dexter's statement that a former City
Manager was forced to resign stating that this was erroneous.
Mr. Dexter admitted that his previous statement was based on his own opinion.
Mayor Thom declared that the foregoing motion died for a lack of a second.
REQUEST FOR REHEARING - RECLASSIFICATION NOS. 76-77-54 AND 76-77-55 AND VARIANCE
NOS. 2936 AND 2937 (TENTATIVE TRACT NO. 9815): Request of Mr. Floyd Farano, 2555
East Chapman Avenue, Fullerton, Attorney for Mr. and Mrs. Clow, for a rehearing
of Reclassification Nos. 76-77-54, Variance No. 2936 and Tentative Tract No. 9815,
and Reclassification No. 76-77-55 and Variance No. 2937, which were denied by the
City Council following public hearing held November 8, 1977, was submitted for
Council consideration.
77-1264
~ity Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 15~ 1977~ 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Farano related that pursuant to his letter dated November il, 1977, the
applicants request a rehearing on these petitions on the basis that after re-
viewing the project as submitted to the Council, they feel there is some room
for further consideration and possibly revision of the plans. A discussion
held with Mr. Netty further leads him to believe there is room for possible
agreement between the resident property owners and the applicant in this case.
In conclusion, Mr. Farano stated that they would not bring back to the Council
the same proposal as was reviewed on November 8, 1977.
Mayor Thom stated that if Mr. Farano was speaking only of single-family, detached
homes, either in the RS-7200 or RS-5000 zones, he personally would be willing to
vote favorably on the request for rehearing, but if the proposal were to contain
any mixture of condominiums or townhouses insofar as he was concerned, Council's
decision on that matter was made clear at the November 8, 1977 meeting.
Mr. Farano responded that he could not stipulate to only single-family, detached
homes primarily because of the size and shape of the property and frankly because
of problems in development of the property fronting on Haster Street which is
90 feet wide and would not accommodate a single-family residence together with a
standard street. Further, in his opinion, this portion of the property is not
suitable for anything other than a duplex unit approach.
Mr. Nick Netty, 1200 North Main Street, Santa Ana, stated that he was the attorney
for the property owners and he voiced the opinion that the City Council has already
spent a considerable amount of time and discussion of this proposal, and therefore
to spend further time on the matter would be an injustice to the homeowners and to
the City itself. Mr. Netty explained that in previous discussions with Mr. Farano,
he has advised that the homeowners minimum line would be something along the recom-
mendations of the Council, i.e., single-family homes some mixture of lot sizes.
In response to Councilwoman Kaywood, Mr. Netty stated he was not retained, clarified
that he has been retained by the homeowners'; that they have had homeowners meetings
at which he was directed to represent their interest and he has recently learned
that he will receive some reimbursement for his time. He further explained that
there are two individuals he is certain of representing, his in-laws, and in
addition to these, there have been no less than 25 individuals at the homeowners
meetings.
Additional discussion ensued between Council Members and Mr. Netty as to whether or
not he had discussed the lack of amenities which would be provided if the property
were zoned RS-5,000 and as to whether the property owners primary concerns related
to the density of number of units or number of people.
Mr. Netty explained that all aspects of the proposal have been discussed in detail
and that their concern would be based on the numbers of people injected into the
area. He stressed that his personal preference for the property would be all
single-family homes.
Mr. Farano recalled that on September 30, 1977, Mr. Netty wrote to his clients
indicating support of an RM-4000 project and on October 13, 1977, wrote a letter
reversing this position. Mr. Farano stated that he did not challenge Mr. Netty's
right to change his position but felt that some of the discussions which had taken
place in this intervening period were not on the same level.

77-1270
C_ity Hall.~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 15, 1977~ 1:30 P.M.
Miss Santalahti explained that in connection with Conditional Use Permit No. 1758,
at the time that the particular property was rezoned, there was a great deal of
interest from the single-family residences to the north and east. At the time the
CL zone was granted, the developer did not describe any specific uses. The Condi-
tional Use Permit in question was advertised for public hearing before the Planning
Commission as a restaurant as this was what the applicant had indicated on his
peitition. At the Planning Commission meeting, however, no one showed up in
opposition and it was subsequently disclosed that the type of food to be served at
the establishment would be sandwiches and also that there would possibly be pool
tables. The applicant was not willing to stipulate not to include the pool tables.
Therefore, the City Planning Commission, because of the previous concern from the
surrounding area, felt the advertisement for the public hearing should have more
accurately reflected the type of establishment proposed and that it should be
readvertised setting forth that the establishment would be a sandwich shop
serving beer and wine so that the property owners might respond to that use.
Councilman Kott questioned what defines a restaurant, noting that to him these
proposals appeared similar and he did not know what significance the square footage
of the kitchen area might have.
Mr. Hopkins referred him to the definition of a kitchen as set forth in the Anaheim
Municipal Code Section 18.01.190 "any establishment which is engaged primarily in
the business of preparing and serving meals,..."
At the conclusion of discussion, the City Council took no further action on Condi-
tional Use Permit No. 1757, thereby sustaining the City Planning Commission action
granting said conditional use permit.
The City Clerk was directed to schedule Conditional Use Permit No. 1758 for public
hearing at the request of Councilman Kott.
EXTENSION OF TIME - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 1342: Request of Paul Bandy for an
extension of time to Conditional Use Permit No. 1342 to establish a child nursery
with certain code waivers on property located on the south side of South Street,
west of State College Boulevard, was granted for one year by the City Planning
Commission to expire October 10, 1978.
This item was removed from the foregoing consent calendar at the request of
Councilman Kott who wished to question how many previous extensions of time had
been extended and how many would legally be permitted.
It was reported that Conditional Use Permit No. 1342 was originally approved in
1972 and that four extensions of time had been granted allowing the petitioner
to continue the use.
The City Attorney explained that there is no limitation on the number of time
extensions which could be granted, that this is entirely at the discretion of
the City Council.
No further action was taken by the City Council, thereby sustaining the City
Planning Commission action.

The Mayor declared Resolution No. 77R-750 duly passed and adopted.
113: COMMENDATION ON MINUTES: Councilman Roth commended the City Clerk's Office
on the timely and efficient production of minutes.
132: COMPLAINT REGARDING CHARGES FOR TRASH COLLECTION: Mayor Thom introduced
Mrs. Gertrude Christman, 1233 South Nutwood, who questioned the sanitation ~harges
as indicated on her last bill and further questioned why the tenants of the apart-
ment house in which she lives pay for trash collection and the manager also pays
for these services.
Mayor Thom explained that the owner of the apartment house pays for rental of a
commercial trash bin or dumpster from one of the disposal companies. In addition,
the apartment house tenants are charged for the cost of one trash collection per
week, if the apartment house owner or manager elects to have more frequent trash
collection then he pays for that additional increment of service.
Mrs. Christman also voiced complaints regarding charges shown on the utility bill
for sewer maintenance and street sweeping, noting that they have never been
charged for sewer maintenance before and that this should be paid for from taxes.
In addition, the area surrounding her apartment house is not swept by the street
sweeper because of the parked cars.
Assistant City Manager Hopkins offered to provide a street sweeping schedule to
Mrs. Christman and assured her that this service is provided once every two weeks
in residential areas. It was further noted that the sewer maintenance charge she
referred to is not a new charge but something that the City of Anaheim residents
have been paying for all along, however as a result of the City's new cost accounting
system, it has recently been broken down from the sanitation charges and accounted
for separately on the utility bill.
In response to complaints from Mrs. Christman that such charges are not levied by
other cities, Mayor Thom advised that if these charges are not included on a
separate bill for municipal services, then they are paid for through a higher tax
rate.
77-1273
C__ity Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 15~ 1977~ 1:30 P.M.
In reply to some of Mrs. Christman's concerns regarding the charges for these
services, Mr. Piersall explained that the street sweepers are one of the most
expensive pieces of equipment to purchase and to maintain. Additionally, he
offered to meet with the apartment house owner and tenants and representatives
of the trash contractor to investigate tenant complaints of overcharging.
Mrs. Patricia Clancy, 303 North Bush Street, stated that as an apartment house
manager she has discussed the street sweeping problem with Mr. Paul Singer, with
particular reference to posting no parking signs on the streets for those days
designated for sweeping by the street sweeper. This has appeared to solve the
problem in other communities.
Councilman Roth voiced the opinion that before pursuing any plans for such a signing
program, the cost to accomplish this citywide first be determined. Then, if the
citizens are willing to pay for it, the Council should consider the program.
At the conclusion of discussion, Mayor Thom advised Mrs. Christman that the Public
Works Director would meet with her and other tenants and~the apartment owner
or manager and trash collection contractor to discuss the points she has raised.
No further action was taken by the City Council.
169: SANTA ANA CANYON ROAD WIDENING - SCHEDULED PUBLIC DISCUSSION: Mayor Thom
advised that he had received a request from several citizens that the public
discussion of the Santa Ana Canyon Road widening currently scheduled for the
regular November 22, 1977 meeting, be held at an evening meeting.
In response to Councilman Roth's concern that many residents of the Canyon area
are not aware of this scheduled public discussion, the City Clerk advised that
notices of the meeting were mailed to presidents of all hill and canyon homeowner
associations as well as to HACMAC on Thursday, November 10, 1977.
On motion by Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilwoman Kaywood, the City Council
rescinded their previous action setting the public discussion of Santa Ana Canyon
Road widening for November 22, 1977, and determined that said discussion would be
held December 6, 1977, at 7:00 P.M. Councilman Seymour was absent. MOTION CARRIED.
ADJOURNMENT: Councilwoman Kaywood moved to adjourn. Councilman Thom seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Adjourned: 3:35 P.M.
