ORDINANCE NO. 3395: Councilman Thom offered Ordinance No. 3395 for first reading. AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM AMENDING TITLE 18 OF THE ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO ZONING. (70-71-25 (2) - RS-5000) ORDINANCE NO. 3396: Councilman Thom offered Ordinance No. 3396 for first reading. AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM AMENDING TITLE 18 OF THE ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO ZONING. (74-75-12 - RS-A-43,000) PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO CHAPTER 6.70.010 - RELATING TO HOURS OF EXEMPTION - PERMITTED NOISE LEVELS~ CONSTRUCTION AND/OR BUILDING REPAIR: Councilman Seymour reported that in response to a number of citizens' complaints regarding the noise of construction and repair activities, he has investigated and finds that the City of Anaheim permits construction activity beginning at 6:00 a.m. and ending at 10:00 p.m. pursuant to Chapter 6.70.010. In an attempt to alleviate this problem, Councilman Seymour related that he further investigated alternative times and has found that amending the Code to permit the increased noise levels relating to construction and repair activ- ity between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. would create no adverse effect whatsoever. In the interest of trying to create a more peaceful atmosphere for the citizens therefore, he moved that the City Attorney's Office be instructed to draft an amendment to Chapter 6.70.010 to provide that the sound created by construction or building repair of any premises within the City be exempt from the applica- tions of said Chapter during the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Councilman Thom seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED. Discussion as to the effect of these revised hours indicated Council to be in general agreement, but there should be a provision in the amended ordinance which would permit emergency construction or repair and also that the contractor performing street striping should be permitted to continue his current operation during the late night hours because of the increased efficiency and lower costs involved in performing that service with minimal traffic. Public Works Director Thornton Piersall explained that he has discussed the situation with other city contractors such as the residential and commercial refuse collection services. The residential service has agreed to change their hours to begin at 7:00 a.m., and the commercial refuse collector will attempt to reschedule his routes to decrease noise adjacent to residential areas in the early morning hours. RECESS - EXECUTIVE SESSION: Councilman Pebley moved to recess to Executive Session. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED. (4:10 P.M.) AFTER RECESS: Mayor Thom called the meeting to order, all Council Members being present. (5:49 P.M.) ADJOURNbiENT: Councilman Seymour moved to adjourn. Councilman Sneegas seconded the motion.

MODIFICATION OF JOB CLASS - DRIVER CLERK; ESTABLISHMENT OF NEW JOB CLASSES - MANPOWER SPECIALIST I AND II~ SYSTEMS PROGRAMMER AND RELOCATION SPECIALIST: Personnel Director Garry McRae reported on the recommended modification of job class Driver Clerk to upgrade same and the creation of new job classes - Manpower Specialist I and II, Systems Programmer and Relocation Specialist. In reply to Council questions, Mr. McRae advised that the Relocation Specialist would be salaried through Redevelopment Funds; that they intend to employ one Manpower Specialist, but have recommended creating two job classifi- cations in order to provide some flexibility in the qualifications of the individual to be hired, and that this indiviHual would be salaried through Federal Title I Funds. The job classification of Systems Programmer is recom- mended to correct an existing inequity in personnel organization. He further reported that these job classifications, titles, wage rates and individual job requirements are the culmination of discussions with both Department Heads and City Manager's Office; that none of these positions were developed unilaterally by the Personnel Department. Additionally, Mr. McRae advised that in any of the Federal employment pro- grams, the costs for benefits paid to these positions are also paid from the particular Federal funds. RESOLUTION NOS. 75R-55 THROUGH 75R-57: Councilman Seymour offered Resolution Nos. 75R-55 through 75R-57, both inclusive, for adoption, as recommended by the Personnel Director.

FEASIBILITY STUDY - USE OF DATA PROCESSING SERVICES FOR THE BUSINESS LICENSE SECTION: Mr. Murdoch noted that pursuant to recommendations of Arthur Young & Company presented at the Council meeting of January 7, 1975, a committee was established to conduct a feasibility study on the use of data processing services in the Business License Section. He noted that the report dated February 1975, has been submitted to Council Members and that it concludes the automated system is a feasible approach and sets forth in detail a plan for implementation of same. He stated that if there are no Council objections, plans will be made to move ahead with implementation as recommended in the report. Mayor Thom commented that in comparison of this committee report with the Arthur Young & Company recommendation, the latter indicates $20,000 per year could be eliminated based on the deletion of two clerical positions, whereas the report from the City Treasurer and committee does not speak to the elimination of these two positions. He inquired whether the City Treasurer was planning to achieve these savings in some other fashion. During discussion of the proposed implementation process, Mr. Murdoch replied that the City Treasurer indicates once the automated system is in opera- tion and proves successful, then the two positions can be eliminated. However, 75-90 City Hall, Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 4~ 1975~. 1:30 P.M. in the meantime, manual operations will have to continue for a period of time. Also, precisely which two positions would be removed will require some analysis of the structure of the Department and this will be conducted during the period of implementation. In reply to Councilman Seymour's proposal that the Council request a report from the City Treasurer by July 1, 1975 as to the vacation of the two clerical positions, additional discussion with Mr. Jim LeSieur of Arthur Young & Company and the City Manager disclosed that there is a possibility that the July 1, 1975 date might not be firm. Councilman Seymour then amended his request that the City Treasurer report by July 1, 1975 as to when the vacation of the two clerical positions will take place and further report on the status of the complete complement of recommenda- tions for transition to automation in that Division. Councilman Seymour thereupon moved that the City Council accept the feasi- bility study on use of Data Processing service in the Business License Division with outline for implementation as clarified, i.e., report from the City Treasurer to be submitted by July 1, 1975 as outlined above. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED. AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY AND THE PEOPLE'S CENT.ER~ INC. - ADULT OCCUPATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM: Mr. Murdoch reported that documents are prepared, and Mr. William Hepburn and other parties present to discuss the proposed agreement between the City and the People's Center, Inc., which would employ this private contractor to perform placement and counseling services for 50 individuals on an incentive-pay basis. He apologized that there was no time to submit copies to Council Members beforehand. Mr. Wally Kyman, the People's Center, Inc., 1242 West Lincoln Avenue, Anaheim, reported that this proposal was originally approved by the Orange County Manpower Commission, but since it is to be conducted in the City of Anaheim, they then felt that it should be under the auspices of the City's Manpower effort. He advised that he intends, by using intensive counseling and coordination of available social services, to place 50 unemployed individuals with employment problems, such as criminal records, poor military service records and/or problems in the community, into gainful employment. Mr. Kyman described the program at the People's Center and advised that his personal goal is to remove 1,000 people from the w~lfare rolls. Councilman Seymour questioned why the existing governmental agencies and organizations are not able to meet this need, and in reply Mr. Kyman indicated that there seems to be difficulty in communication and actual delivery of services from existing governmental agencies. In addition he noted that those agencies do not perform vocational testing nor do they consider the entire family unit for counseling and help as is done under his program. Mr. Gerald Vind, City of Anaheim representative to the Orange County Man- power Commission, explained that the proposed agreement would use $42,500 from the $88,000 bonus which the City of Anaheim receives through its membership in the Orange County Manpower Consortium. He related that it was felt best to have the People's Center as one of the functional elements of the Anaheim Comprehensive Employment Office, which operates through a separate site and with a separate client entity and will be providing parallel services but not .duplicating effort. He endorsed the project as a sound approach. He reported that because of the number and types of governmental agencies attempting to deliver social services, the efforts of these are very often fragmented, and the situation such that the potential recipient spends most of his time estab- lishing eligibility and locating the place from which to receive benefits. Councilman Seymour remarked that his primary concern would be to avoid a duplication of efforts but he strongly endorses the concept that private enter- prise enter this field with compensation based upon actual results. Mr. William Hepburn, Manpower Planner, commented in response to Councilman Seymour's concern that this might represent a duplication of efforts, on the difference in magnitude of this program. He advised that the Anaheim Recruitment 75-91 City HallI Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 4, 1975~ 1:30 P.M. Center processed 285 people during the month of January, whereas this program would propose to place 50 people in the next five months. He related that this highly intensive counseling approach, working with employers as well as employ- ment candidates, is designed to assist that group of unemployed persons who require much more assistance than help in finding a job. Mr. Hepburn reported that it was through his office that the contract was revised to include the performance measurement aspects. Mr. Robert Davis, in answer to Council questions, reported that the term of this agreement is five months, terminating June 30, 1975, with total expendi- ture out of Manpower funds of $42,500. Further, that the contract calls for the individual placed to have completed 90 days on the job prior to payment to the People's Center and further specifies the amounts to be paid per enrollee and per placement with maximums for each month. RESOLUTION NO. 75R-58: Councilman Seymour offered Resolution No. 75R-58 for adoption. Refer to Resolution Book.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT BUDGET - PUBLIC HEARING: Mr. Robert Davis reported that a public meeting for those people representing the first year's Community Development Act Project Area held recently disclosed that they desired one of the public hearings on the proposed Community Development Act Budget be held in the evening. Mr. Davis advised that these have been tentatively scheduled, but not yet advertised, to be held February 11, and 18, 1975, at 2:30 P.M. By general Council consent, it was determined that the public hearing on Community Development Act Budget on February 18, 1975 be held at 7:00 P.M. STUDY OF POLICE DEPARTMENT~ PUBLIC WORKS AND UTILITIES COMMUNICATION FREQUENCIES~ MOTOROLA COMMUNICATIONS AND ELECTRONICS1 INC.: Mr. Robert Davis reported that this proposal was originally to include the UHF Communications System designed for the Police Department only, and it is proposed to eliminate problems occur- ring in sections of the Santa Ana Canyon area with either a poor or non-existent signal. He reported that the original plan has been amended and for an addi- tional $1,200, it is proposed that Motorola include the Public Works and Utilities frequencies in their investigation. He reported that the total amount of the proposed agreement is now $5,700, which is available in the current Budget. On motion by Councilman Seymour, seconded by Councilman Sneegas, the City Council approved the expenditure of $5,700 for UHF Communications System designed for the City of Anaheim Police Department and including the Utilities D~partm~nt VNF/URF Pmdio §ystem and Department of Public Works Low Band Radio System. MOTION CARRIED. RESOLUTION NOS. 75R-59 AND 75R-60 - EMPLOYMRNT OF CONSULTANT FOR DAMAGES TO WALNUT CANYON RESERVOIR (DAMES & MOORE1J.

PUBLIC HEARING - AMENDMENT TO TITLE 18 (ZONING CODE OF THE ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE): To consider: A. Amendments to Chapter 18.05 (Outdoor Advertising - General): 1. Delete references to specific amounts to be charged for permit fees and deposits for tract signs and future establishment signs, and 2. To add definitions and clarify regulations pertaining to Temporary Real Estate Signs. B. Amendments to Chapter 18.84 (Scenic Corridor (SC) Zone): i. Expand the southerly boundaries of the (SC) Zone to the south City limits. 2. Revise the description and purpose section of the chapter to provide for the inclusion of areas other than the Santa Ana Canyon area to the Zone, and 3. Provide for the special regulations of "Tract" Signs within the (SC) Zone. The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC75-16, recom- mended approval of Exhibit "A" as modified, Mr. Bill Young, Associate Planner, explained what the proposed ordinances intend to accomplish as far as revision of description of the SC Zone is con- cerned and further related that this ordinance would essentially restrict all tract signs within the City to a maximum area of 96 square feet; maximum height of 14 feet to the highest portion of the sign, 6 feet to the lowest portion of the sign; regulates that a distance of 450 feet must be kept between signs on the same parcel of land; provides for no more than one tract sign on any parcel having a combined frontage of less than 950 feet adjacent to any public street or arterial highway. The proposed ordinance also specifies that amounts of permit fees and deposits be established by resolution rather than ordinance to provide for more flexibility. The Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the Council either in favor or in opposition to the proposed amendments to Title 18. Mrs. Mary Dinndorf, President of the Santa Ana Improvement Association, Inc., and also representing the Santa Ana Property Owners and Coalition of Anaheim Leaders, presented the following questions which arose from discussion at the January 20, 1975 Planning Commission hearing. At that time it was noted that enforcement of the sign ordinance relating to these tract signs has not been pursued because the existing regulation would permit the developer to take out a new application and leave the sign in practically the same position. She inquired whether there are fees for new sign applications and the amount of same. She inquired how much revenue the City has lost on a sign that expired in 1972 with no record of renewal permit issued. She also inquired as to who pays the cost of sign removal and whether or not monument type signs are considered 75-93 City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - Februa.r_z 4, 1975 1:30 P.M. off-site tract advertising signs. She further inquired if there are penalties for violation of the ordinance and whether or not the owners of signs in viola- tion are so notified. She displayed photographs of existing tract.signs at various locations in the Santa Ana Canyon area and read a list of signs and their locations which have expired and are still in place. (Said photographs were reviewed by the City Council and returned to Mrs. Dinndorf.) Mrs. Dinndorf concluded that the homeown.ers' groups she represents would prefer a 6-foot by 10-foot maximum sign with minimum distance of 200 feet from a single-family residential zone, but find the recommendations of the Planning Commission in regard to distance and proximity to be satisfactory. However, until the matter has been resolved she requested that the City Council consider either of the following alternates: 1) Issue no new sign permits; 2) Require all applications for new sign permits be approved by the City Council. In reply to Mrs. Dinndorf, Mr. Young related that there is a $50 permit fee and $100 cash deposit requirement for each sign erected. He noted that enforcement of the sign ordinance in the past has not been stringent, however, due to the flexibility of the existing ordinance there was nothing to prevent reinstallation of a sign, and if one were removed, it could have been legally replaced the same day upon receipt of permit. The proposed ordinance will provide appropriate controls which will limit the size, location and, indirectly, the number of tract signs. Mr. Roberts reported, in regard to the question of whether or not monument type signs would be considered off-site tract signs, that in all cases he can recall plans for this type of sign have been approved in conjunction with a variance or conditional use permit or with the tentative tract map. If proposed to be erected separately, such a sign would be the subject of a separate vari- ance application. In reply to Councilman Seymour, Mr. Roberts indicated that if the currently proposed ordinance is adopted, because of the interest expressed by homeowners and City Council relative to these signs, a tickler card system to indicate dates of expiration would certainly be a number one priority. In answer to Councilwoman Kaywood's question as to whether or not the pro- posed ordinance would effectively remove all violating signs, Mr. Young replied affirmatively with the exception of monument signs which are the subject of separate Council approval, and those signs for which permits were received prior to the Council's decision to issue permits expiring March 12, 1975, and would be considered legal non-conforming signs until the date of their expiration. Mr. John Millick, Vice President, Anaheim Hills, Inc., reported that in response to the concern displayed by developers, Task Force Members and home- owners, Bernardo Yorba, owner of property at Imperial Highway and Santa Ana Canyon Road has sought creative ideas from various sign companies and has pre- sented a plan for a kiosk which will integrate the signs on his property. This has received unanimous approval of the Planning Commission and once approved by Council, Mr. Yorba has stipulated to removal of all other signs on his prop- erty. Mr. Millick mentioned the importance of the off-site tract signs in directing prospective homebuyers to a tract, citing statistics from a survey conducted by Title Insurance and Trust Company. He noted that they recommended the size limitation for these signs be 125 square feet since they require sufficient space on the signs for the name of the project and directions. This information should be printed in such a manner that an individual can visually communicate while driving down Santa Ana Canyon Road at a speed of 55 m.p.h. He indicated that while they were certain all of this information could be con- tained on the 125-square foot sign, they are willing to accept and live with the 96-square foot sign compromise as recommended by the City Planning Commis- sion. He thereupon urged that the Council approve the sign ordinance as recom- mended by the City Planning Commission. Mr. Bill Mitchell of Market Profiles remarked that his firm performs surveys and prepares buyer profiles. He indicated that he did not wish to defend the visual glut and pollution caused by the signs and overhead wires in the canyon area. He referred to the high cost of advertising in forms other than off-site tract signs and noted that 50% of the traffic coming to the models is attributed to these signs. The monument type tract entrance signs he felt 75-94 City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - Febr-~ry 4~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M. serve a purpose of establishing areas within the development and also in direct- ing traffic flow once the community is established. He voiced the opinion that the Planning Commission recommendation will fit the need of all parties concerned. Mr. Charles Dryer, Vice President Marketing, Grant Corporation, urged that the Council accept the Planning Commission recommendation in the matter of these proposed amendments to the Anaheim Municipal Code. Mayor Thom asked if anyone else wished to address the City Council and there being no response, he declared the hearing closed. During brief Council discussion, it was noted again that those signs which received extensions of time to March 12, 1975, pursuant to Council actions taken at the meeting of January 7, 1975, even should the ordinance be effective prior to that time would not be legally required to conform prior to March 12, 1975. Further that staff was previously instructed that any sign permits issued during the interim period between January 7, 1975 and the effective date of the ordinance would expire on March 12, 1975. Councilwoman Kaywood requested clarification of the maximum number of signs which would be permitted on parcels having a frontage ranging from less than 900 feet to 1,350 feet, inasmuch as her interpretation of Section 18.05.072.0211 would be only two signs would be allowed on 1,350 feet of frontage. Mr. Young concurred with her interpretation of said section as written in the sample ordinance and advised that the section should be clarified to more clearly define the intent of the City Planning Commission. ORDINANCE NO. 3397: Councilman Pebley offered Ordinance No. 3397 for first reading, as recommended by the City Planning Commission (one sign. for any parcel having less than 900 feet of frontage. Parcels of 900 feet or more, one sign for each 450 feet of frontage.) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM REPEALING CERTAIN SECTIONS AND SUBSECTIONS OF THE ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE AND ADDING NEW SECTIONS AND SUBSECTIONS THERETO PERTAINING TO ZONING. (Signs) RESOLUTION NO. 75R-61: Councilman Pebley offered Resolution No. 75R-61 for adoption. Refer to Resolution Book. A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM ESTABLISHING PERMIT FEES AND CASH DEPOSITS FOR TEMPORARY SIGNING. Prior to voting on the foregoing resolution, Councilman Seymour asked Mrs. Dinndorf if it would not be a fair statement that the homeowners' groups are generally in accord with the ordinance as proposed, with the only area of disagreement being the size of the sign, their preference being the 60-square foot, with which Mrs. Dinndorf agreed. Councilman Seymour indicated he was in favor of the ordinance proposed and commended the Task Force, homeowners' groups and developers who recognized a serious problem and set about to air their differences with the end result of a resolution which all parties can live with. He indicated that he is proud of that result and that if no further accomplishment comes from the efforts of the Task Force, it has proven itself to be able to produce results. Mayor Thom concurred with Councilman Seymour's statement. Councilwoman Kaywood commented that it was agreed the purpose of the signs is to identify and inform attractively and that the monument signs as displayed in photos shown by Mr. John Millick can actually add to the scenic beauty.

Zoning Supervisor Roberts briefly described the location of subject prop- erty and noted that the 5 and 1/3 acre parcel, currently zoned CL, is vacant for the majority, with a service station at the corner. The applicant is requesting a change in zone from CL to RM-1200 and proposes to construct a 130- unit apartment complex with a density of 28 units per net residential acre. 20% of the units in this complex would be bachelor type units and the plans originally specified these to be 417-square feet, however, on recommendation of the City Planning Commission, the applicant has stipulated and agreed these units will be a minimum of 425 square feet. Mr. Roberts reported, in reply to Councilwoman Kaywood, that the parking to be provided in this complex is consistent with the City's revised parking sta~Ldards for multiple-family zones. The Mayor asked if the applicant or his agent were present and satisfied wi~h the recommendations of the City Planning Commission. Mr. Robert Anderson, 912 Park Circle, Anaheim, President of Great Oak Western, Agent for the property owner, replied they were in agreement with the recommendations of the City Planning Commission. The Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the Council, either in favor or in opposition to the reclassification or variance, there being no response, he declared the hearing closed. City Engineer James Maddox clarified his memorandum dated February 4, 1975, advising that the City Planning Commission approved the plans subject to conformance with Exhibits marked 1, 2 and 3, and Exhibit No. 1 shows a driveway onto Loara which, as was agreed and stipulated to by the developer subsequent to the Planning Commission hearing, would be eliminated. He reported that up to this date, no revised plan showing relocation or elimination of the driveway has been submitted. Mr. Anderson advised that he had discussed this situation with the Traffic Engineer, Chief of Police, Fire and Sanitation Departments and the developer's intention is not to have any access onto Loara Street, but rather that a hammer- head drive, satisfactory to accommodate trash collection vehicles would be utilized, with ingress and egress onto Crescent Avenue only. For emergency access purposes, a gate will be provided in the fencing on the Loara Street frontage, which will be constructed of chain-link or other suitable material. In reply to Mayor Thom, Mr. Anderson agreed to stipulate to the above and it was determined that Council could act on the reclassification and variance with plans submitted, although not revised to show the above stipulation.

BUENA PARK VARIANCE NO. V-714: Zoning Supervisor Roberts displayed revised plans for an apartment complex to be constructed on property located at the westerly terminus of Savanna Street, adjacent to the City of Anaheim boundary, which were drawn up by the developer with Joint assistance from representatives of the Cities of Anaheim and Buena Park in response to some of the concerns expressed by the Anaheim City Council when the matter was last discussed, January 7, 1975. Mr. Roberts described the revised plans which reflect a total of 21 units and provide for a portion of a public cul-de-sac at the easterly boundary of the property. Mr. Roberts informed Council that the setback requirements proposed would comply with the City of Anaheim site development standards and that the only deviation from Anaheim standards would be in the parking require- ments, the City of Buena Park requiring 1 and 3/4 spaces per dwelling unit, whereas the City of Anaheim requires 2 per bachelor, single- or two-bedroom units. Mr. Roberts advised that there are some Anaheim residents opposed to the apartment project and in reply to Councilwoman Kaywood advised that these indi- viduals intend to appear at the Buena Park City Council hearing on the matter. On motion by Councilman Seymour, seconded by Councilman Pebley, the City Council directed that the City of Buena Park Planning Commission be advised that the Anaheim City Council recommends approval of the revised plans as sub- mitted and approval of application for Variance No. V-714 in accordance there- with; and further that appreciation be extended to the Buena Park Planning Com- mission for their efforts and cooperation in negotiating a situation which could have evolved into a problem.

RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE ANAHEIM CHAMBER OF COMMERCE~ BOARD OF DIRECTORS: Dick Taft, Director of Projects Development, Anaheim Chamber of Commerce, presented the three recommendationS of the Board of Directors, also submitted to Council in Mr. Larry Sierk's letter dated January 27, 1975: 1. Reactivation of the Civic Center Task Force. 2. Removal of buildings within the area of the superblock. 3. Selection of a group of qualified, unbiased experts to establish the authenticity of homes and buildings to be designated as having historic value. Councilman Sneegas voiced the opinion that these recommendations are "on ~target", and that a group of qualified unbiased experts should establish the authenticity of homes and buildings. Mr. Andrew Deneau, Chairman of the Heritage Committee for Anaheim Cultural Arts Commission, commented on these recommendations, noting that they whole- heartedly endorse Recommendation No. 1 regarding reactivation of the Joint Civic Center Task Force. Relative to Recommendation No. 2, Mr. Deneau indicated that the Heritag~ Committee would like to see some evidence of the criteria used in evaluating historical structures and buildings by the Chamber of Com- merce. He stated that as an advisory group concerned with these sorts of structures, they would not consider making such a broad and sweeping recommenda- tion, obliging the City to demolish or construct anything. He offered to furnish the criteria used by his committee in making their recommendations. 75-103 City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 4~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M. Mr. Deneau felt that Recommendation Nos. 2 and 3 from the Chamber are not presently valid for consideration for any kind of action by the City Council. However, if the Chamber wishes to put these forth as their opinion,~ the Heritage Committee would be most happy to take these into consideration in offering recommendations or soliciting information from other civic groups in the City concerning specific landmarks. Further discussion of Mr. Deneau's position on the recommendations ensued, during which Councilman Seymour inquired as to whether or not Mr. Deneau is interested in broadening the base of his particular committee, to which Mr. Deneau replied affirmatively. In response to Councilman Seymour's request for some specific guidance as to how this broadening might be accomPlished, Mr. Deneau noted that the committee presently has 10 members and is appointive under the auspices and guidance of the Cultural Arts Commission. He reported that they are currently undertaking a historical resources inventory, as instructed by the County Commission. In addition, he reported they are working with the Bicentennial Heritage Section administered by the Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Deneau voiced the opinion that through their public contact efforts and contacts with various civic groups, his committee receives public input and they should continue in this manner. Councilman Seymour felt that in order to insure that the Heritage Com- mittee's activities are consistent with the feelings of the community at large, this committee should be perhaps made up of representative members from the Chamber of Commerce, Anaheim Beautiful, members of the Board of Realtors, etc. Mayor Thom observed that perhaps that is what the Chamber is recommending as part of Recommendation No. 3, that the Council appoint such a committee, and include Mr. Deneau as a member. A question arose as to the current composition of the Heritage Committee, and Mr. Deneau informed Council that the entire committee is made up of survivors from the two previous committees and were appointed at the discretion of himself and the Chairman of the Cultural Arts Commission. The appointees were discussed and appointments changed, altered or ratified by the Commission before the com- mittee undertook any action. He read the following list of members to the Council: 1) Andrew Deneau, Chairman, 2) Mrs. Charles A. Pearson representing the Mother Colony Advisory Board, 3) Donald Cameron Spicer, 4) Mrs. Norman V. Salaets representing the Cultural Arts Commission, 5) Mrs. R. J. Anthony repre- senting the Women's Division, Chamber of Commerce, as well as the Red Cross Chapter, 6) Mr. Bill Jones, member of the Anaheim Fire Department, 7) Mrs. Vera Wilson, Cadet Advisor, Anaheim Police Department, 8) Mr. Homer Wallace, retired Chief Building Inspector, City of Anaheim, 9) Miss Eleni Boukidis, Architect. Councilwoman Kaywood requested that Mr. Deneau furnish a copy of this list to the City Clerk, to which he agreed and also offered to submit a copy of the instructions as given to the Heritage Committee by the Cultural Arts Commission in 1968. In reply to Councilwoman Kaywood's concern that the Heritage Committee's apparent position of opposition to the selection of a group of qualified~ unbiased experts is, in effect, prejudging the situation, Mr. Deneau explained that he did not know who these people might be. Mr. Deneau stated that he felt it would be up to the City Council to broaden the base of his committee and remarked they merely act to gather infor- mation and forward game to th~ Council, that recommendations regarding historical landmarks and structures certainly need not be forwarded through the Heritage Committee. At the conclusion of discussion, Councilman Seymour stated that he felt Recommendation Nos. 2 and 3 as presented by the Chamber of Commerce would be more appropriately taken up with the Cultural Arts Commission at the joint meeting scheduled for Monday, February 10, 1975. He indicated he would be in favor of reactivating the task force and in accordance with the suggestion previously submitted by the Heritage Committee, concurred that the representation on this task force be broadened. 75-104 City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 4; 1.975; 1:30 P.M. Councilman Seymour thereupon moved that the Civic Center Task Force be reactivated and reconstituted. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED. Mayor Thom suggested that names of potential appointees be submitted at the Council meeting of February 11, 1975 and in the interim that Council be supplied with a list of members of the task force as it was constituted previously.

Mayor Thom encouraged any Council Member able to attend these to do so. ESTABLISHMENT OF AD HOC COMMITTEE TO IDENTIFY SOCIAL SERVICES NEEDS: Mayor Thom referred to the discussion earlier in the meeting regarding the agreement with tile People's Center as indicative of the disorganized "shotgun" approach which the City has so far utilized in addressing the question of social services. In this connection he proposed that the Council establish an ad hoc committee which would serve until July 1, 1975. The purpose of this committee would be to make recommendations to the City Council relative to the extent to which the City should go in facilitating the delivery of available social services. He stated that he would expect the Committee to formulate these objectives for social services and deliver to the Council a statement of need, identifying those areas in which the City's attention should be focused, commensurate with its financial ability. Further, Mayor Thom suggested that this committee be comprised of nine members and receive support from City Staff, principally from Joe Garza, Community Relations Representative and William Hepburn, Manpower Coordinator, as well as be given a place to meet. He recommended that the City's present Manpower Commissioner, Gerald Vind, be appointed to chair this committee. Councilman Seymour remarked that he felt this to be an excellent idea. He suggested, however, that included in the charge to the committee be a require- ment that its recommendations to the Council have productivity standards applied which would clearly demonstrate the positive or negative results of the efforts of the programs. Councilman Seymour explained that the rationale of this request for application of productivity standards to these social services programs is that he wishes to avoid the City's becoming involved in any program if the final result is negative in terms of delivery of services to the people in Anaheim. He indicated he would be interested in facilitating the delivery of social services if they prove to deliver worthwhile results, but not if they just add another layer of bureaucracy. Mayor Thom agreed with Councilman Seymour's suggestion that productivity standards be applied to the delivery of social services in the City. He emphasized that the City of Anaheim would not be proposing to initiate or deliver any social services, but rather the purpose of this committee would be to explore the extent to which the City should facilitate the delivery of existing social services. City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 4~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M. In answer to Councilwoman Kaywood's concern that productivity measurements cannot be applied to social services, but rather these should be tied to people's needs, Councilman Seymour explained that his approach can be encapsulated with the question as to whether or not the program will fulfill all or a portion of an identified social need. Mayor Thom moved that the Council approve establishment of the ad hoc com- mittee as outlined and with the appointment indicated above, and charge that they report back to Council periodically, with final recommendation submitted prior to the adoption of the City Budget for the 1975-76 fiscal year. Councilman Seymour seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
