the audience.
FLAG SALUTE: Councilwoman Miriam Kaywood led the Assembly in the Pledge of
Allegiance to the Flag.
GENERAL REVENUE SHARING - TWILA REID PARK: Mr. Ralph B. Clark, Fourth District,
Member of the Orange County Board of Supervisors, presented a check from the
County of Orange in the amount of $6,850.98, as its portion of the general
revenue sharing program for the Twila Reid Park development.
Mayor Thom accepted said check on behalf of the City of Anaheim, and ex-
pressed appreciation to Supervisor Clark.
PEP, ALTA ADOBE: Supervisor Clark reported that according to action taken by the
Board of Supervisors at their meeting this morning, the County of Orange intends
to purchase, restore and maintain the old Peralta Adobe as a historical landmark,
entirely out of County funds.
BURRIS SANDPIT: Supervisor Clark advised that the Board of Supervisors is on
the threshold of resolving the problems generated by the proposed development
of property known as the Burris Sandpit, so that the people of Anaheim will be
assured that the property will be in open space and in the Greenbelt. It may
be turned over to a private party for development, or become part of the Water
District property for ultimate use as part of a Lake System. The major owner
is currently in negotiations with the Orange County Water District.
ORANGE COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH BUILDING: Supervisor Clark advised that he has re-
quested the County of Orange to consider the downtown area of Anaheim as a
possible site for their new Public Health facility. In his opinion, the pro-
posed 6~ million dollar building could serve as a catalyst for other construc-
tion in the downtown area, and could bring 1,000 employees into the area.
STANDARDIZED ZONING RECOMMENDATION - INTERGOVERNMENTAL COORDINATING COUNCIL:
Orange County Board of Supervisors Resolution to the Intergovernmental Coordi-
nating Council for its input was read by Supervisor Clark, recommending that
the Council investigate and make recommendations for standardization of land
use and zoning designations currently used by its members. He suggested that
some members of the Anaheim Development Services Department staff might want to
participate in working towards this goal.
Councilman Pebley suggested that a similar effort be made in the area of
Building Codes.
Mayor Thom expressed appreciation to Mr. Clark for his reports.
RESOLUTION OF COMMENDATION: Mayor Thom presented Ralph Serna, Senior at Loara
High School, with a Resolution of Commendation in recognition of his achieve-
ments in the athletic field of distance running.
Mr. Serna expressed appreciation to the City Council for the honor.

MOTION UNANIMOUSLY CARRIED.
REPORT - FINANCIAL DEMANDS AGAINST THE CITY: Demands against the City in the
amount of $533,568.09, in accordance with the 1974-75 Budget, were approved.
REPORT - ARTHUR YOUNG & COMPANY: Mr. Lou Kopeny, representing Arthur Young &
Company, presented a written report covering results of the Management Audit of
the Purchasing and Stores Division, advising that procurement practices and
stores activities of other Departments will be reviewed along with Management
Audits of those Departments.
PURCHASING AND STORES - FINDINGS: Mr. Kopeny stated that as result of their
study, it was their opinion that the Purchasing and Stores function generally
provides adequate support to other City Departments, but that improved benefits
can be realized through specified changes in policies, practices and responsi-
bilities. The recommended changes include increasing the dollar limit for
purchases requiring City Council approval, scheduled buying of commodity items,
tightened controls on open purchase order activity, changes in the material
requisitioning procedure used by the Utilities Department, reduction in Central
Stores inventory levels, transfer of responsibility for the inventory level of
Utilities' items to the Utilities Department, review and evaluation of uncon-
trolled "inventories" in other City Departments, strengthening of monthly
reports to City Management, and the immediate hiring of a buyer with utilities
procurement experience.
Mr. Kopeny advised that implementation of the recommendations for the
Purchasing and Stores Division should result in reduced annual costs of $53,940,
and increased revenues of $29,800, and at the same time, increase the level of
service provided by said division.
PRINTING AND DUPLICATING SERVICES: Mr. Kopeny advised that as result of the
studies, it was determined that the Printing and Duplicating function is not
providing optimum benefit to the City. It was recommended that all printing
and duplicating 'services be centrally controlled and that a study be authorized
to analyze all of the City's printing and duplicating needs and activities. In
order to optimize the benefits the City receives from the Printing and Dupli-
cating services function, he also recommended that the following steps be
taken:
1. Treat this function as a separate budget unit in the preparation of
the 1975-76 annual budget. This is a necessary prerequisite for:
a. Determining total costs for the function.
b. Establishing actual and/or standard costs for services performed.
c. Measuring and controlling the activity.
d. Providing a basis for a full "charge back" for services performed
for other City Departments.
2. Copy Machine Costs: Conduct a total analysis of City printing and
duplicating needs and activities, and ~hat the work plan fo~ such a study be
jointly developed by Arthur Young & Company and an individual designated by ~h~
City.
3. Cit7 Responsiblli_~.L Establish a single point of responsibili~y for
all printing and duplicating servlce~ performed by and for the City, including
the use of copy machines and outside printers. I~ was suggested ~hat this
City-wide service function might be better administered if it reported directly
to the City Manager or the Assistant City Manager.
75-49
~it~ Hall~. Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
It is estimated that the combination of separate budgeting and controi,
full costing and charge-back, and proper utilization of cost-effective alterna-
tives will provide a 10-20% ($30,000 to $60,000) reduction in printing and
duplicating costs.
Council discussion was held, and concerning the duplicating and printing
services, Councilman Seymour stated it was his understanding there was a
Heidelberg Press located within the Division, which is an expensive and sophis-
ticated press used for high-quality printing jobs. If so, he questioned why
there was no recommendation to sell the press in favor of a comparable, less
expensive piece of equipment.
Mr. Kopeny pointed out that inasmuch as they had no ability to compare the
costs of providing services by the City with outside services, they were unable
to make any recommendations of that nature. He stated they would like an
opportunity to compare costs and report back to the City Council at a later
date.
In response to questions by Mayor Thom and Councilman Seymour, Mr. Kopeny
reported that the bulk of the inventory was comprised of the Utilities Depart-
ment's inventory and materials, and the estimated $1,700,000 value thereof was
verified from the inventory taken at the close of the last fiscal year. That
there was no reason why the majority of the Arthur Young & Company recommenda-
tions could not be implemented within 60 days, with the exception of the inven-
tory reduction.
Councilman Sneegas commended the report by Arthur Young & Company, but was
of the opinion it should be made clear that by eliminating two positions from
the 1975-76 Annual Budget, and filling the vacant position of Senior Buyer with
a person trained in Electrical Utilities Purchasing, there would be a consider-
able savings in the allocated budget, but not in actual money spent. He noted
that traditionally, the budgets run somewhat below the money actually budgeted,
i.e., where positions are allocated due to potential need, but may not be
filled.
In response to question by City Manager Keith Murdoch, Mr. Kopeny explained
that the firm recommended that the study to analyze duplicating and printing
needs and activities be developed jointly by Arthur Young & Company and the
responsible City personnel. That there is no total cost estimate at present,
since a portion thereof will be a function of the placement of the organiza-
tion, also recommended by the Company.
Concern was expressed by Mr. Murdoch regarding recommendation No. 4, under
Item A, Purchasing and Stores, "open purchase orders". For instance, he felt
the recommendations would result in the Mechanical Maintenance Personnel having
to prepare a purchase requisition and take it to the Purchasing Division for
approval before they could acquire materials, which seemed cumbersome compared
with the simplified open order system currently being used.
Mr. Kopeny advised that the intent was to prevent the daily misuse of the
system, not the proper use for the function intended; and he noted the last
portion of the recommendation, where emergency exception procedures and authority
delegations were projected.
Councilman Seymour moved that the City Council accept the recommendations
presented by Arthur Young & Company relative to the Management Audit of the
Purchasing and Stores Division, including the Printing and Duplicating Services
function, and that a progress report on the degree of implementation of said
recommendations be forwarded to the City Council within 60 days by the responsi-
ble management level. Councilman Thom seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARINGS - HOUSEMOVING PERMITS: Submitted by John Krajacic,
requesting permits to move a structure to 1407 Damon Street, Anaheim, and to
move a structure to 1503 South Nutwood Street, Anaheim. Said hearings were
continued from the meetings of August 20 and September 17, 1974, to allow the
Applicant an opportunity to purchase move-on dwellings of a better grade.
City Clerk Alona M. Hougard called attention to a letter from the Applicant
dated January 14, 1975 (copies furnished each Council Member), requesting that
the public hearings be continued for six additional months to allow him an
opportunity to locate suitable dwellings.
75-50
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
The City Attorney recommended that should this public hearing be continued
and another extension requested at a later date, the matter be readvertised for
a subsequent hearing, inasmuch as interested residents of the areas in question
may find it difficult to keep track of the continuations.
Mr. John Krajacic, 1677 Beacon Avenue, Anaheim, addressed the Council
apologizing for the delay and stated he expected to be back before the Council
with his proposals within six months. He requested that any additional fees be
waived.
Mr. Krajacic was advised that inspections of any dwellings proposed to be
moved onto subject properties would have to be made and the required fees paid.
Costs of readvertising, if necessary, would be borne by the City.
Councilman Pebley moved that public hearings on subject housemoving permits
be continued for a maximum of six months (July 21, 1975). However, if the
Applicant locates suitable structures prior to said date, upon receipt of
updated applications and payment of required inspection fees, the City Clerk is
authorized to schedule said applications for an earlier public hearing and give
proper notice of hearing. Councilman Seymour seconded the motion. MOTION
CARRIED.
FINAL TRACT NO. 7787, CONTINUED, AND SANTA ANA CANYON ROAD ACCESS: Developer,
Wittenberg National Company; property located north of Santa Ana Canyon Road,
east of Anaheim Hills Road, and contains 50 RS-5000 lots (Reclassification No.
71-72-5).
Council consideration of subject final tract was continued from the meetings
of October 29, November 19, December 3 and 17, 1974 at the request of the
developer; and further continued from the meeting of January 14, 1975, pending
a solution of engineering problems and further investigation as to the traffic
situation which might result from implementation of Study "A", as submitted by
the City Engineer.
Report from the City Engineer dated January 17, 1975, was submitted (copies
furnished each Council Member) recommending the following in the matter of
additional access to Santa Ana Canyon Road, and submitting a new proposed
street pattern identified as Study "B":
1). It is strongly recommended that the method of providing access be as
shown on the attached sketch. (Study "B")
2). It is also recommended that the City and Wittenberg Corporation enter
into an agreement whereby the plans for the roadway would be prepared by the
developer's engineer and would be constructed concurrently with the tract
street improvements and with the developer's contractor(s). Further, that the
agreement provide for payment to the developer for land lost from the tract and
the full cost of the street improvements.
City Engineer James Maddox reported on meeting held with the developer and
engineers of Tract No. 7787, at which time all possible alternates were con-
sidered, resulting in the foregoing unanimous recommendations, believed to be
the most economical and practical for all concerned. He called attention to
page 2 of his report denoting immediate costs to the City if the recommended
plan is implemented, and advised that the figure of $35,000 for loss to the
developer of approximately one acre of land should be modified to $11,200., as
result of the engineers' estimate that the loss would consist of approximately
.32 of an acre only. In addition, it was suggested that the Santa Ana Canyon
Road median modification could be effected along with street improvements for
the access to Santa Ana Canyon Road at an estimated cost of $2,000. Street
improvement costs including engineering were estimated at $30,000. The total
estimated cost to the City, therefore, would be reduced from $84,500 to $60,000.
Councilwoman Kaywood questioned why the City should be responsible for
payment to the developer for loss of land and also for the full cost of the
street improvement.
Mr. Maddox was of the opinion that the developer would have realized a
profit from the .32 acre and should be reimbursed, and since the purpose of the
additional street is to provide circulation outside the tract and to serve the
City park, the City should be responsible for that cost.
75 -51
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Seymour pointed out that the Anaheim City Council had previously
approved the tentative map for Tract No. 7787 and because of requests from area
residents, the issue of additional access to Santa Ana Canyon Road is being
considered. The developer will suffer some loss of land if Study "B" is
approved and even though he is reimbursed as recommended, he has been delayed
in the approval of the final map and subsequent development.
Mayor Thom was of the opinion that the proposed compromise was the best
solution available under the conditions which exist.
Mr. Maddox called attention to a colored rendering posted on the east wall
of the Council Chambers, clearly defining the roadway alignment, the terrain,
lot layout, and the shortening of the cul-de-sac street within the tract. He
reported that the roadway will be off-set 15 feet east of the opposite street
entrance to the Mark III Homes, and no conflicts nor problems were anticipated.
In answer to Councilman Seymour's question as to whether the "knuckle"
section at the northerly end of the proposed roadway would create any hazardous
conditions, Mr. ~{addox replied that a similar situation existed in several
instances in the area with no problems.
The developer and the City staff were commended by Councilman Seymour for
their efforts and cooperation in this matter.
City Attorney Alan Watts reported that Mr. Parker, Attorney who represented
property owners in the vicinity of Tract No. 7787, advised him by telephone
that the recommendation of the City Engineer was considered a satisfactory
approach, if the new access road is constructed at the time the tract is
developed.
Further discussion was held pertaining to the City park site adjacent to
subject property on the east, it being noted that the City does not yet own the
property, although purchase negotiations are pending, and Study "B" places the
access road partially on the proposed park site property.
Councilman Pebley moved that Final Tract No. 7787 be approved as revised
in accordance with Study "B". Councilman Sneegas seconded the motion. MOTION
CARRIED.
Councilman Seymour moved that the recommendations of the City Engineer
pertaining to the access point and to agreement with the developer of Tract No.
7787 for roadway plans and revised payment for land loss and street improvements,
as noted in the Engineering Report, be approved. Councilman Pebley seconded
the motion. MOTION CARRIED.

date hereof, or such further time as the City Council may grant.
12. That Condition Nos. 3, 4, 6, 7 and 8, above-mentioned, shall be complied

Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts recalled that the Council recently
approved C-1 zoning for the Beach Boulevard frontage portion of subject property,
and noted the proposed multiple family zoning would be consistent with that on
property immediately south of subject parcel. He reported that the Development
Services Department staff has recommended a slight modification to Condition
No. 1, by adding thereto the following: "Conditioned upon need for and demand
by the City".
Mayor Thom asked if the Applicant or his Agent wished to address the City
Council.
Mr. Peter Ostrander of Ostrander & Kishiyama, Authorized Agents, advised
that they were in accordance with the conditions as recommended.
The Mayor asked if anyone else wished to address the City Council in favor
of, or in opposition to, the proposed reclassification and there being no
response, he declared the hearing closed.

Appeal from action taken by i;he f:i,t.y Planning Commissi.on was filed by
Robert C. Walls, Agent, and public hearing scheduled this date.
['he C;iCy C.l, erk .t:ei,o~,.ted chat; co2nnunication dated ,January 21, 1975, had
been received in her office this date from Meta± Cabinet & Fixture Co., Inc.,
1751-55 Raymond .Avenue, Anaheim, expressing opposition to subject conditional
use permit.
Mr. Roberts noted the locatl, on of subject prope~'ty ann the existing uses
and zoning ~n the i~aediate area, summarizing the evidence submitted to and
considered by' the City Planning Commission. He advised that in connection with
subject application a request has been received to waive the definition of a
restaurant, which requires that 25% of the gross floor area of a restaurant
facility be devoted to kitchen and food preparation areas, as subject restaurant

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
would lack approximately 75-square feet of the necessary area for food prepara-
tion; however, the Application states that complete meals will be served through-
out the day. Subject restaurant has been in existence for approximately 16
years, apparently serving beer and wine for that length of time, although no
conditional use permit for that use was ever approved by the City.
Councilman Sneegas returned to the Council Chambers. (2:53 P.M.)
Councilwoman Kaywood left the Council Chambers. (2:53 P.M.)
Mr. Roberts reported that parking provisions for subject restaurant area
are above the ML standards. The City Planning Commission felt that on-sale
liquor was not proper for this location, based on concern expressed by the
landowners in the area.
Mayor Thom asked if the Applicant or his Agent wished to address the City
Council.
Councilwoman Kaywood returned to the Council Chambers. (2:56 P.M.)
Mr. Matt Kurilich, 1400 North Harbor Boulevard, Fullerton, Attorney repre-
senting the Petitioner and the restaurant operator, submitted copies of memoran-
dum and letters from Western Precision Products, Association of Western Pulp
and Paper Workers, Local No. 672, and the Franklin Company, tenants of adjacent
properties who had no objection to the proposed use. Also submitted was a
sample menu from the B & B Tavern (subject restaurant), and snapshot photographs
illustrating the restaurant, the parking area serving the use, and the parking
area for businesses to the south.
Mr. Kurilich referred to communications submitted to the City Planning
Commission in opposition to the continuation of the business-from Mr. Hoyt, the
manager of the property; Mr. Ross, owner of the building to the south containing
four businesses; Mr. Steinmeyer, owner of a building to the north also contain-
ing four businesses, and a Mr. Crane. He advised that upon checking with all
businesses or tenants of these buildings, it was determined that none had any
objection to the conditional use permit, although they were unable to contact
Mr. Iversen of the Metal Cabinet & Fixture Co., Inc. He pointed out that the
business has been in operation for 16 years with no complaints to the Police
Department and no other objections until now. The only problem ever experienced
was when patrons sometimes parked their automobiles on the parking lot immedi-
ately adjacent to the south; and upon the advice of one of the Planning Commis-
sioners, a sign was posted requesting patrons to park in the designated spaces
only, as illustrated in one of the snapshot photographs submitted. Two other
photographs taken at noon today depicted the full parking area in front of the
business, and the adjacent parking area with only one automobile parked therein.
Mr. Kurilich went to the map posted on the east wall of the Council Chamber
and pointed out the substantial distance between Mr. Ross' property and subject
business. With reference to the letter from Mr. Iversen, he noted that
Mr. Walls, operator of the business for the last four years, personally opens
the restaurant each day and has not encountered any problems in the parking lot
to the south caused by patrons of the business. The business had been in
operation for 12 years when the lease was negotiated by the present owner of
the business, and no complaints were mentioned by Mr. Hoyt at that time. In
addition, no traffic accidents have occurred which can be traced to a patron
leaving the premises.
In response to question by Councilman Seymour, Mr. Kurilich clarified that
previously, only beer and wine have been served on the premises.
The Mayor asked if anyone else wished to address the City Council.
Mr. Charles Bradley, representing Bryan Industrial Properties, addressed
the Council in opposition to the issuance of a liquor license, advising that
Mr. Hoyt ia owner of Bryan Industrial Properties, which owns the building in
question. He placed a plan of the area on the east wall of the Council Chamber,
pointing out subject property and those to the north and south, owned by
Messrs. Steinmeyer and Ross, respectively.
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21, 1975, 1:30 P.M.
With regaled to the i~ark~ng s:[ tuat [on, Mr. Bradley felt that the posted
sign had resulted in some improvement, however, many patrons of the business in
question continue to park to the south which has made it necessary for
Mr. Iverson, a tenant in the building, to obtain additional insurance, due to
automobiles parking close to the building. Further, his business has suffered
several burglaries which prompted him to install supplemental exterior lighting
and to purchase special bolts to secure his business.
In response to question by Councilman Seymour, Mr. Bradley reiterated that
Bryan Industrial Properties objects only to the liquor license.
The Mayor asked if anyone else wished to address the City Council, there
being no response, declared the hearing closed.
Brief discussion ensued, and Councilman Seymour pointed out that the
business was not a family-oriented restaurant, and he saw no problem with
approving the serving of liquor on the premises.
Mayor Thom was of the opinion that the majority of industrial complexes
have a restaurant nearby, some serving beer and wine, and others also serving
cocktails. These are amenities in an industrial area which are utilized by
many people, including those who have come to the area on business.
Councilman Sneegas was of the opinion that to allow liquor to be sold at
what really is a sandwich shop with a substandard kitchen would, in effect, be
calling the operation a cocktail lounge. He pointed out that there is a dinner
house located across the street from the property.

PUBLIC HEARINGS - GENERAL PLAN A3iENDblENT NO. 137 AND AREA DEVELOPMENT PLAN NO. 116
~ENVlRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT NO. 138):
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 137: To consider an amendment to the Anaheim General
Plan Map in the vicinity located southeast of Broadway and Loara Street from a
junior high school site to low, low-medium and/or medium density residential.
Pursuant to Resolution No. PC75-3, the City Planning Commission recommended
that General Plan Amendment No. 137 be approved in accordance with "Exhibit A",
and expressed the belief that draft Environmental Impact Report No. 138 does
conform to the City and State Guidelines and the State of California Environ-
mental Quality Act and, based upon information contained therein and evidence
both written and oral, recommended that the City Council certify said environ-
mental impact report as in compliance with said Environmental Quality Act.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21~ 1975~ 1'30 P.M.
AREA DEVELOPMENT PLAN NO. 116: Prepared in order to determine the proper
vehicular circulation for the area described in General Plan Amendment No. 137.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC75-4, recom-
mended the adoption of Area Development Plan No. 116, "Exhibit 1" and Street
Sections "A-A" along the approximately 640-foot frontage of the southerly
portion along Loara Street; "B-B" along the approximately 620-foot frontage of
the northerly portion along Loara Street; and "C-C" along Broadway, said exhibits
and street sections being on file in the office of Development Services
Department.
Mr. Roberts noted the location of the property in question, an area of
~approximately 41 acres bounded on the north by Broadway, on the west by Loara
Street, on the east by the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way, and on the
south by existing single-family residential subdivisions. The northern portion
thereof is comprised of approximately 19 acres, having a resolution of intent
for multiple-family residential zoning (Reclassification No. 71-72-18), while
the R-A zoned southern portion remaining was declared surplus by the Anaheim
Union High School District, and has been offered for sale.
Using the exhibits posted on the east wall of the Council Chamber,
Mr. Roberts indicated that the purpose of the proposed General Plan Amendment
was to explore the various land use alternatives which might be appropriate and
compatible to other uses in the area; while the purpose of the Area Development
Plan was to explore vehicular circulation systems in order to provide adequate
access to the entire area. He called attention to the four exhibits displayed
for the General Plan Amendment, advising that all depicted the northerly portion
fronting on Broadway as medium density residential, however, the southerly 22
acres was divided into two portions projected as follows: Exhibit "A" depicted
the north half for low-medium density residential (R-2, RM-4000 or RS-5000
zoning), with the south half low density residential; Exhibit "B" placed the
entire school property into low density residential; Exhibit "C" placed that
same entire parcel into low-medium density residential; while Exhibit "D"
depicted the entire 41 acres into medium density residential.
Mr. Roberts reported that in connection with Reclassification No. 71-72-
18, Area Development Plan No. 107 was prepared which indicated the need for a
street to be extended easterly from Loara Street to some point within the
property, and another street to extend northerly and connect with Broadway.
Three exhibits were posted for Area Development Plan No. 116, Exhibit "1" being
geared to Exhibit "A" of the General Plan Amendment, showing no access on the
Broadway frontage property, and a 64-foot public street extending east from
Loara Street, having a cul-de-sac within the School District property. Gilmar
and Gilbuck Streets would be extended north from their present terminus to the
new street, which would swing northerly to connect with whatever street pattern
might be developed on the northerly half of the School District property.
Exhibit "2" was intended to implement Exhibit "B" of the General Plan
Amendment, being a sample scheme which could have many variations.
Exhibit "3" complimented Exhibits "C" and "D" of the General Plan Amendment
with multiple-family residential development on the entire School District
property and depicted a point of egress to Broadway, as well as access to Loara
Street. Said exhibit further included projected street sections for those two
streets which would provide for the heavier flow of traffic from the more dense
development.
It was noted that Exhibit "1" of Area Development Plan No. 116 was recom-
mended for adoption, and Mr. Roberts advised that the staff recommended, if
said Area Development Plan is adopted, that a finding be made in the resolution
of adoption rescinding Area Development Plan No. 107.
Relative to the General Plan Amendment, Councilwo.man Kaywood asked whether
consideration has been given to reserving five acres of the school property for
park purposes other than in combination with the schools, since Willow Park was
reportedly over used.
Mr. Roberts responded that that alternative was considered, as well as
other variations.
City Hail, Anaheim, California -. (;OUNCIi., MINUTES -.January_ 21, 1975, 1:30 P.M.
Relativf~ to the ?',~'~a i)t?~z{~!~>!,m~,nt t~ian, (;oun¢:-l.£man ,~eymour expressed concern
that traffic from any multi, i~i~,-family residential development should be routed
away from the singl, e-fa,n.i]y i,omes to the south. He suggested extending Gilmar
and Gilbuck Streets nt~t-t|l~r]y into the proposed 1. ok, density development on the
south half of the School District property with cul-de-sacs, and at the southerly
boundary of the Broadway frontage property, extending a street from Loara, and
also providing access fr~m Broadway.
Traffic Engineer t>,-~u.l Singer reported that he projected private streets to
exit on Loara Street or i~r~:-~dwav because if all the traffic were to flow through
one exit to Loara Stre~-~i .~ it wf)uld ~'.;~use a ~roblem. If the entire School
District property wer~ ~ievelop,.~d for sing[e-fam£].y ,"~'s~dential, one street

Mayor Thom asked if anyone wished to address the City Council pertaining
to the General Plan Amendment or Area Development Plan.
Mr. Cal Queyrel of Anacal Engineering addressed the Council, representing
the Nelson Covington Company, ])eve]oper of the 19-acre Broadway frontage in
question, advising that their unique lake plans for the property are partially
prepared, and any street extending through the parcel would completely destroy
the integrity of the plan. He was of the opinion it would be more appropriate
to place the secondary access through the single-family residential area, main-
taining the integrity of the ~M-4000 development. He further felt that condo-
minium developments should be classified as more similar to single-family resi-
dential than multiple-family residential.
In answer to Councilman Seymour, Mr. Queyrel stated that homeowners in the
existing single-family subdivision had expressed no objection to traffic from
the condominium area flowing through their neighborhood. He pointed out that
the Covington Company was dedicating an additional 16 feet on Loara Street to
provide an extra traffic lane for the traffic.
In response to questions by Councilwoman Kaywood, Mr. Queyrel stated that
based on his experience of current costs of construction and today's prices,
the condominium units would run approximately $45,000 to $50,000, while RS-5000
developments would be priced in the $40,000 to $45,000 range, and RS-7200 even
more. The condominiums run higher than RS-5000 development because of the many
amenities included.
Councilman Seymour was oi- the opinion that cc;ndominiums consisting of
eight to ten units per a~:.re were not comparab.le to si_ngle-family residential
development, and unless there are extreme amenities, he failed to see the
justification for a $45,000 to $50,000 price range.
Mr. Queyrel reported that the minimum bid being requested for the School
District property was $50,000 per acre. tte pointed out that condominium resi-.
dents basically own their own ~nits and consider them homes.
Mr. Ken Nelson, Developer of the proposed apartment project along Broadwny,
advised that they would be using a densJts' of 24 to 25 units to the acre. In
his experience, people who own townhouses desire to be considered homeowners,
and they want to be completely buffered f?7om apartment areas.
Mr. Robert A. Reilly, 617 Gilmar Street, stated he had resided at that
location for 19 years. At one time there was a proposal for apartments to the
north which was defeated, and p~ople in the neighborhood were very pleased at
the prospect of a junior high school being constructed there; now, the two
local schools are filling up again and the proposed developments will increase
the load. He recommended that Exhibit "B" of General Plan Amendment No. 137
and Exhibit "2" or Exhibit "1" of Area Development Plan No. 116, as recommended
by Councilman Seymour, be adopted.
Mr. Robert Linn of Meadowbrook l~lace noted the narrow streets in the
existing subdivision, being of the opinion that any additional traffic coming
through that neighborhood would probably result in tragic accidents due to the
large number of children playing in the area. Further, with 420 apartment
units to be constructed on the south s~de of Broadway, he expressed concern as
75-58
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
to how children were going to safely cross the street to school. He felt that
another school would be necessary, and noted the inadequacy of the park area at
Loara School inasmuch as most of the pupils reside south of Broadway.
Mrs. Paul Murdock, resident of the area for nearly 19 years, stated many
more people would have attended this hearing if they had known it was possible
to project anything other than single-family residential for the School District
property. She was in favor of Exhibit "B".
Mr. Nelson returned to the microphone to point out that the apartment pro-
ject would be limited to adult occupancy. He felt that any condominiums which
might be developed to the south would provide its own recreation area and that
might alleviate the park situation, if any children were allowed. In that
respect, Exhibit "B" could result in more children coming into the area than
Exhibit "A".
Mr. Linn returned to the microphone to cite an instance where children
from a purportedly all adult apartment complex were entered in a local elemen-
tary school.
Mr. Queyrel called attention to the fact that three schools in Garden Grove
were being considered for closing due to the decline in enrollment. He felt
there would be a moderate amount of children coming into the area as result of
all proposed developments.
l~ayor Thom declared the public hearing closed.
Councilwoman Kaywood stated that the school enrollments are actually down
only 100 pupils per school, still leaving a higher number in each classroom
than the ideal figure.
Brief discussion was held, and Councilwoman Kaywood expressed a preference
for General Plan Amendment Exhibit "B", while Councilman Pebley indicated con-
currence with the recommendations of the City Planning Commission. Councilman
Seymour agreed with Councilman Pebley with the exception of the routing of
traffic through the single-family subdivision to the south.
Mr. Queyrel suggested that the General Plan Amendment and the Area Develop-
ment Plan be adopted as recommended by the Planning Commission, with the excep-
tion that Gilmar and Gilbuck Streets be cul-de-sac streets, leaving the adjacent
area to develop for single-family homes.
Councilman Pebley concurred with that premise.
Mr. Singer pointed out that if the entire School District property is
developed for single-family residential, the project traffic will be reduced
50%. He suggested connecting Gilmar and Gilbuck Streets.
Further discussion was held, and Councilman Sneegas stated that if those
two streets could be connected together to preclude traffic from the north, and
facilitate the maneuvering of trash disposal trucks, he would be in favor of
single-family development. In this case, he felt that the School District's
parcel was public property, and it was not a case of hurting one individual
owner who has held the property and paid taxes for many y~ars.
In response to question by Councilman Pebley, Mr. Roberts reported that
the entire School District property could be developed with approximately 100
RS-7200 homes.
It was pointed out that the 100 houses would generate approximately 300
school children, while to divide the property for 100 adult condominium units
and 50 single-family dwellings, the number of children would be cut to approxi-
mately 150, and the traffic would be increased by approximately 1,000 automobiles
per day. At the conclusion of the discussion, it was determined that if the
north half of the School District property were projected for RS-5000 develop-
men~ and the south half for RS-7200, there would a 35% reduction in the number
of automobiles.

PROPOSED MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT - GOLF OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA~ LTD.: Regarding the
proposed lease for the operation of both the Anaheim Municipal and Anaheim
Hills Golf Courses, City Manager Keith Murdoch submitted a draft of a proposed
management agreement with Golf of Southern California, Ltd. (copies furnished
to each Council Member). He advised that the draft was not yet in final form,
and explained the terms, noting that the Corporation took the position that
they need 20 years to amortize the capital improvements as projected in the
proposal. Also explained was projected adjustment to ~aid a~r~em~nt ~o provide
for a condition in ~h~ Ci~y'~ lca~e of a portion of Municipal G01f Cour~
property which is owned by the Oran~ County Flood Control District, and ter-
minates January 20, 1984. Such condition would provide a minimum rental fee
for the City.

~ity Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21, 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Pebley questioned whether City Golf Course employees would
transfer to other jobs, or be hired by the Corporation which would manage the
facilities.
Mr. Murdoch reported that the management firm had indicated a willingness
to employ nearly all of the employees; but any who were not so employed might
suffer a lay-off until such time as City parks currently under development need
maintenance which would occur within approximately one year.
Mayor Thom expressed the hope that very few, if any, employees would be
out of work. He commented that in his opinion, private business could operate
the golf courses more efficiently, relieving the local taxpayers of the burden
of supporting a losing proposition.
Councilman Seymour called attention to a chart attached to the draft
agreement which reflected a $224,000 loss to the City in one year, after oper-
ating expenses.
In order to place that loss in its proper prospective, Councilman Sneegas
felt that the golf courses are recreational facilities similar to City parks,
and seemed to have heavier use for longer periods of time than most parks, and
by people who are willing to pay a fee to play golf. It was his understanding
that current costs for maintaining parks amount to $4,000 an acre each year,
and if there were 200 acres in golf course property, it would mean that $800,000
per year was being spent for maintenance alone. Therefore, he was of the
opinion that the golf courses were not the losing propositions they were repre-
sented to be.
The City Manager further reported on the financial projection under terms
of the proposed agreement, as listed therein. Also listed were proposed capital
improvements, including the remodeling of the clubhouse at the Municipal Course.
In reply to question by Councilman Seymour, City Attorney Alan R. Watts
advised the proposed agreement provided that management of each of the existing
concessions would be assigned by the City to the management firm although the
operation thereof would not.
Mr. Murdoch noted that the proposed capital improvements would increase
play on the courses, and the private corporation would be in a better position
to promote the facilities. He further advised that since the contract with
Santa Anita Consolidated, Inc., for purchase of the 235.8 acres of land for
Anaheim Hills Golf Course facilities expires in 1991, provision must be made to
continue the cash flow beyond that date to the expiration of subject agreement.
In response to question by Councilwoman Kaywood, Mr. Murdoch stated that
at the end of 20 years, the contract provided that the City would own the
capital improvements. The intention is that all existing equipment at the golf
courses would be turned over to the management corporation, and should the
agreement be terminated, it would be their responsibility to replace said
equipment in kind, or in dollar value. Meanwhile, they would maintain the
equipment and replace as necessary. (See Exhibit "A" of the proposed agreement.)
Mayor Thom and Councilman Seymour expressed concern that all equipment
would continue to remain where presently maintained.
In reply to question by Mayor Thom, Finance Director M. R. Ringer advised
that the City had invested approximately $256,000 in machinery and equipment
for the Anaheim Hills Golf Course, and $133,965 at the Municipal Course.
Councilman Pebley failed to see how a company could assume management of
the two golf courses for a period of 20 years, make capital improvements, and
still enjoy a profit before returning the facility to the City.
Councilman Seymour felt that the additional facilities and amenities pro-
posed would increase play, and private enterprise would be able to advertise
and promote tournaments.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Murdoch further reported that in order to insure a high level of
maintenance, specifications for maintenance of the Municipal Golf Courses were
listed in Exhibit "B", attached to the proposed agreement.
Councilman Pebley left the Council Chambers. (5:22 P.M.)
Mr. Murdoch advised that Arthur Young & Company, the firm conducting a
Management Audit of City Departments, would render an opinion relative to the
proposed agreement. He expected to be able to submit the proposed agreement in
final form to the City Council in a week or two, and when approved and in
effect, the transition would be made as quickly as possible.

BALL ROAD STREET IMPROVEMENT - WORK ORDER NOS. 738-B AND 849: In connection with
action taken by the City Council on September 3, 1974, allotting $4,600 for the
construction of buffering walls proposed by the City Engineer for protection of
homes on four cul-de-sac streets along the north side of Ball Road between
Walnut and Flore Streets, adjacent to the proposed street widening project, the
City Engineer reported that quotations were taken for four different types of
wall construction. The masonry block walls would cost just under the $4,600
allotted, while slump stone and two types of "split face" construction would
run to a larger amount. He further reported that licenses have been received
to construct said walls from seven out of the eight property owners involved,
the eighth having requested a wrought iron gate in the wall adjacent to his
home, which would increase the costs by approximately $65. He pointed out that
the purpose of the walls was to protect children from the busy street, and a
wrought iron gate would not prevent balls from rolling into the street.
Councilwoman Kaywood pointed out that even self-closing gates might be
propped open, thus defeating the purpose of the wall.
At the conclusion of brief Council discussion, Councilman Sneegas moved
that the wall be constructed of slump stone materials, and if the one property
owner did not wish to have the wall without a gate, his portion of the wall
could be omitted. Councilman Seymour seconded the motion. Councilman Peble~
absent. MOTION CARRIED.
TRANSFER OF FUNDS: Councilman Seymour moved that transfer of funds in the
additional amount of $500 be authorized from the Council Contingency Account to
pay the additional costs of the slump stone materials for the wall along Ball
Road. Councilman Sneegas seconded the motion. Councilman Pebley absent

PHASE I CITY HALL PROJECT/BRANCH LIBRARY CONSTRUCTION: Councilman Seymour recalled
that for some time the need for additional branch libraries had been evident,
and two sites had been selected on Euclid and Sunkist Streets. Although three
of the Council Members had, in 1974, campaigned on the basis of a promise to
75-69
City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 21~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
deliver those libraries, the City Council had been unable to find a way to
finance the facilities during the current fiscal year. In considering the
various needs of the City, he gave the branch libraries very high priority and
considering the present state of the economy, with construction costs dropping,
he was of the opinion that the present time would be the most economical to
pursue the construction thereof.
It was further noted by Councilman Seymour that $1,400,000 had been set
aside for Phase I of the new City Hall, and the Finance Director has recently
advised that the cost of Phase I would now be increased by approximately
$800,000. He was of the opinion the financial viability of moving ahead on
Phase I on a "pay-as-you-go" basis, as adopted in budget hearings last Spring,
was unreal and, therefore, moved that $1,000,000 be appropriated from Phase I
funds to pay for the immediate construction of the two branch libraries,
estimated to cost between $400,000 and $500,000 each. Said facilities to be
constructed on the selected sites on Euclid and Sunkist Streets, subject to
Council approval of the individual contracts. Further, that the staff be
instructed to pursue the contractual agreements with architects and contractors
to implement the projects. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion.
Mayor Thom noted that the projects carried the same high priority in his
opinion.
Mr. Murdoch recalled that a portion of the $1,400,000 set aside for Phase I
had been used to complete plans for Phase II of the City Hall Project.
It was the recollection of Councilman Seymour that $400,000 was the amount
used for Phase II plans. He noted that the architects have completed plans for
the Euclid Street site, and perhaps these same plans could be modified for use
on the property at Juarez Park on Sunkist Street. Also, there may be additional
savings realized if both facilities were constructed at the same time.
