On motion by Councilman Seymour, seconded by Councilwoman Kaywood, the
City Council received the status report and approved the engagement plans as

Councilman Seymour noted that the Council has received a notice of

reorganization of that function. Councilman Thom seconded the motion. I'~OTION
CARRI ED.
V£~ICLE SCHEOULING SYSTEM - MECHANICAL MAINTENANCE DIVISION: (Arthur Young &
Company) Proposal to employ the Arthur Young & Company for design and
implementation of a formal vehicle scheduling system in the Mechanical
~'~aintenance Division was submitted for Council approval. Memorandum from the
?~echanical Maintenance Superintendent recommended ~nployment of Arthur Young &
75-9~
City ~iall~ An.a. neim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 1~; 1975; 1;30 P.M.
Company to perform the design and implementation of said system at an
approximate cost of $7,500.
Mr. Murdoch described the system to be prepared, which would inclUde a
Data Processing report identifying those vehicles due for maintenance work two
weeks prior to due date. These vehicles would continue to be reported on the
weekly sheet until the required work is completed. The system would also
provide a weekly and monthly report summarizing the productivity as compared to
estimates and showing each employee's performance against estimates for the
month and year to date. With this improved reporting system, Arthur Young.&
Company indicates they expect a productivity gain reflecting a savings of
$60,000 in salaries and wage costs while increasing vehicle service levels.
Mr. Murdoch pointed out that it is not anticipated there will actually be
specific dollar savings at least in the initial period since the City does have
a backlog of needed vehicle maintenance. While the productivity increase will
undoubtedly be realized in the degree indicated, the effect would be to reduce
the backlog to a more tenable level and this is where the results of tile gain
and productivity would be demonstrated. He further reported that a more
accurate cost description to perform this function has been given at $~,500.'
In reply to Councilman Seymour, Mr. Murdoch stated that there is reason to
believe, once the backlog is reduced, that dollar savings could be affected
with use of the system.
On motion by Councilman Seymour, seconded by Councilwoman Kaywood, the
City Council approved the expenditure of $8,500 to be appropriated from the
Council Contingency Fund for employment of Arthur Young & Company to design and
implement a formal vehicle scheduling system in the Mechanical l-~intenance
Division. MOTION CARRIED.
PURCHASE OF 14 VEHICLES FOR THE POLICE DEPAR/I~ENT: (Decision continued from the
meetings of November 4 and November 11, 1975.) Mr. Murdoch referred to the
proposal previously presented for purchase of 14 vehicles to be used as police
detective undercover cars from Hertz Rent-a-Car, which would give the City a
good mix of various types of automobiles.
Mr. Murdoch stated that since the last time this matter was discussed,
~mving read about the proposal in a newspaper article, Chrysler Corporation
through Anaheim Dodge has submitted an offer to sell some of their 1975 rental
cars to the City at a more favorable price than the offer from ~ertz.
~r. ~'~urdoch stated that it is recommended the Council approve the purchase
of 14 replacement vehicles for the Anaheim Police Department from Anaheim Dodge
at a cost of $5~, 459. 00, including tax. It is not recommended that tile two
additional units which are on the hold list of capital items be purchase~ at
this time,
Mr. Murdoch advised that the automobiles proposed for sale have an average
of slightly in excess of $,000 miles and considering the equipment and
automobile types to be provided, the City will save approximately $1,000 to
$1,100 per vehicle. The Chrysler Corporation will also extend the warranty on
these automobiles an additional six months beginning from date of sale. The
warranty would be through Chrysler Corporation.
Brief discussion ensued during which the offer made by Hertz was compared,
and Mr. A1 Merriam advised that it is his recommendation ttmt Council approve
the purchase from Anaheim Dodge.
Mayor Thom questioned whether there would be a sufficient variety of
automobiles to provide the ~ndercover anonymity which the City is seeking and
was assured that the Police Chief feels a sufficient variety of Chrysler
products is being offered and therefore the City should purchase the vehicles
at the lower price from Anaheim Dodge.
Councilman Sneegas inquired whether there has been any discussion with the
other automobile dealers as he is still concerned that the City im spending
this sum of money without going to the bidding process.
75-1000
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 1~, 1975~ 1230 P.M.
~'-~r. Michelle advised that they had mailed quotations to seven automobile
dealerships in the immediate area four weeks ago and ~ave received only two
responses. He reported that the indication the City would save between $1,000
and $1,100 per car by purchasing these 1975 models from Anaheim Dodge is based
on the two price quotations received this date.
On motion by Councilman Thom, seconded by Councilwoman Kaywood, the City
Council approved the p~rchase of 14 automobiles from Anaheim' Dodge in the
amount of $58,459.00, including tax, as recommended. MOTION CARRIED.

APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT - TRANSFER OF GOLF COURSE LAirD OBLIGATION: Mr. Watts
submitted a letter from Santa Anita Consolidated, Inc., dated November 17,
1975, requesting Council approval of an agreement proposed between Santa Anita
Consolidated, Inc. and Mrs. Bonnie Grant whereby should Santa Anita
Consolidated, Inc. default in payments under said agreement, they will then
assign the Anaheim Hills Golf Course note agreement to b~s. Grant or to a bank
she will designate.
~[r. Phelps, Attorney for Santa Anita Consolidated, Inc., was present and
advised that their request is for Council approval of their entry into the
agreement as outlined in the letter.
On motion by Councilman Sey~nour, seconded by Councilman Thom, the City
Council approved the entry into an agreement by Santa Anita Consolidated, Inc.
with ~lrs. Bonnie Grant whereby should they default on payments under said
agreement, the Anaheim Hills Golf Course bank note agreement will then be
assigned to b~rs. Grant or to a bank designated by ~er. MOTION CARRIED.
~UALIFICATIONS - GOLF COURSE ADVISORY CO~MISSION ME~BERStiIP: Mr. Watts reported
on the findings made by his office in connection with the fact that two members
of the Golf Coarse Advisory Connnission are no longer residents of the City of
Anaheim; specifically, that the Council has two alternatives, to either amend
the resolution creating the Commission to provide for non-residents of the
community to serve on said Commission, or to appoint two new members, he
advised that there is one City Commission already established w[~ich permits
non-residents to serve if they are owners, officers or partners of business
firms or corporations located in Anaheim.
l.{r. Pat Patterson, Chairman of the Golf Course Advisory Commission, stated
that he would appreciate it if Council saw fit to amend the resolution to
permit both of these individuals to continue serving as their contributions
have been valuable.
Councilman Seymour stated that although he understands the Chairman's
position and concern in keeping two members who have gone through the initial
training period, in looking to the future, he felt this would establish a
precedent. He felt that the Council, in order to demonstrate that they are
interested in the citizens of Anaheim who are electors of the City, that all
appointed official capacities should be held by qualified electors. He
remarked that he saw no need to go outside the City to find the talents and
abilities needed for these appointed positions.

and thereupon moved that the Council take no action on the matter, leaving
Resolution No. 75R-221 which established the Golf Course Commission unchanged,
i.e., requiring that members of the Golf Course Advisory Commission be
"qualified electors of the City". Councilman Seymour seconded the motion.

REPORT - OPTIONS AVAILABLE FOR ADDITION TO THE SUBDIVISION ORDINANCE: Memorandum
from the City Attorney's Office dated November 7, 1975, providing additional
analysis of two possible additions to the new Subdivision Ordinance pertaining
to scl~ool site dedications and reservations for public facilities was presented
for Council consideration.
During brief Council discussion it was pointed out t~at these provisions,
if added to the Subdivision Ordinance, would be supplementary to the City's
park in-lieu fees and would not adversely affect same; that these provisions
would require that a school district actually buy the school site, priced at
fair market value plus tax, at the time of filing of the tentative map, plus
improvement costs; and that these provisions would not apply to property which
has been owned for a period longer than ten years.
Councilman Seymour stated that he feels the inclusion of these provisions
in the ordinance would add another set of restrictions to be imposed upon a
developer which he fears the public body could use as a basis for manipulating
a project. He noted that the City of Anaheim has not had too great a
difficulty in acquiring property necessary for school and other public
facilities in the past without these restrictions, and he believes they will be
able to continue to do so in the future. Further, he pointed out that the
concepts are very general in nature and that he feared the determination of
what would make a requested dedication "economically unfeasible for the
subdivider" would ultimately be decided by a court.
Mr. Murdoch noted that it is still questionable as to whether or not a
City Council has the right to deny a tract map because either the school
district or the City feels it needs a portion of the property incorporated
within said tract map for school or public purposes, and this provision would
create a vehicle to accomplish thi~. However, without the addition of these
provisions the Council would still retain the right of condemnation.
Councilwoman Kaywood noted that the report explains how the additional
provisions might be added and implemented and that the Council take no action
at this time and still could add such provisions to the ordinance in the future
if they find them necessary.
No further action was taken by the City Council at this time.
RENEWAL - ~IPLOYEES' PREPAID DENTAL PLAN: (James H. Kaufman, D.D.S., Inc.) The
City Attorney presented a proposed extension to the agreement between the City
and James H. Kaufman, D.D.S., wherein prepaid dental services are made
available to those City employees who have selected that plan. He reported
that the present agreement will expire December 31, 1975, and that the proposal
75-1002
City ttail~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November ..151 ..~.75~ !:30 P.M.
is to extend the term for a period of two years expiring December 31, 1977, on
the same terms and conditions.
Mayor Thom, after ascertaining that no recent evaluation has been made on
the services provided through the prepaid plan, requested tl~at the renewal of
this agreement be deferred pending such evaluation to determine whether or not
the dental clinic is performing satisfactorily for those employees who are
using it.
PARK DEVELOPMENT - PINNEY AND GERDA DRIVES (CAiCfON SITE NO. 1): Mrs. Mary
Murphy, 412 Alderdale Circle, who had requested an opportunity to address the
Council relative to development of a park site at Pinney and Gerda Drives with
athletic fields was recognized by the Mayor.
The Deputy City Clerk submitted a petition from homeowners in tile
immediate vicinity of Pinney, Gerda and Bergh indicating their opposition to
the development of athletic fields at this site.
I:irs. Murphy advised that in tt]e past children residing in the canyon area
who wished to participate in organized sports activities were forced to traVel
and join leagues in other communities. As a result these leagues have become
so large that they are no longer manageable, and reorganization has occurred
witi~ boundaries redrawn. The canyon area is forming their own athletic league
and the situation regarding sports facilities is critical. The only facilities
available to these newly formed leagues at the present time are tile school
grounds. She stressed that the population in the canyon has now reached over
15,000 people and it is conservatively estimated the population will reach
3~,000 by 1980. She stated that while there are several designated park sites,
these are not developed and are of no use in their present condition.
The reasons they have selected the property located at Pinney and Gerda
for t]~e location of athletic fields are: 1) this property is already owned by
the City and is a designated park site (Canyon Site No. 1); 2) it is currently
under lease as a Christmas tree farm which lease will terminate January 1,
1976; 3) it is the most centrally located of the park property in the canyon;
and 4) its terrain is suitable for development of athletic fields.
Hrs. :~urphy posted a map of the park area shown as they would propose it
be developed.
Additionally, Mrs. Murphy stated that they feel this site would be ideal
for the athletic facilities as it is located adjacent to both Crescent
Elementary School and Vista Del Rio Junior High School. She remarked that
there are only five homes facing the park which would be directly affected by
it. She reviewed the present arrangements and expansion of these with funds
from Bobby Sox and Little League athletics and stressed that while they can get
through the current year some activity has to be initiated soon in order to
alleviate the lack of sports facilities.
Mrs. Murphy summarized that she knows of no other area in the City of
Anaheim which faces the scarcity of facilities they are experiencing in the
canyon and furthermore no other area of the City is anticipating their
population to double in four years. She stressed that the residents of the
canyon feel as though they are the "stepchild" of the City and that the
remainder of the City is not aware that they exist. She concluded that they
realize the problem is money and would like to participate in the planning and
development of this project. If this park were developed with athletic
facilities she noted that just with the leagues currently active, it could be
used on a year-round basis.
Councilman Seymour stated that Mrs. Murphy had contacted him about one
month ago relative to this problem and at his suggestion presented the matter
to the City Council. He related that he further suggested that she discuss
with the Council the formation of a task force to meet with tile Parks,
Recreation and the Arts Department to pursue the type of facility which would
serve their needs as well as the manner in which this could be funded.
Councilman Seymour stated that since that time the City Council i~as
received a petition signed by a number of residents living immediately east of
Canyon Site No. 1 indicating opposition to the development of att~letic fields.
75-1003
City liall, Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November l~S~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
These people were particularly concerned that some decision on park development
would be made this date, and Councilman Seymour assured ti~em that I~o such
decision would be made at this time.
Councilman Seymour indicated he would be interested in establishing and
volunteered to chair a task force comprised of approximately 1D members made up
of both those interested in athletic fields as well as the nearby residents
opposed to same. This task force would meet with tile Parks, Recreation and the
Arts Department staff and members of the Orange Unified Scho61 District to
discuss tile problem and jointly plan a way to create a facility, investigating
alternative methods of development and financing.
}.{ayor Thom agreed with the taslc force concept and further suggested that
thc membership on same include a representative from the Parks and Recreation
toml~lSS ion.
At the conclusion of discussion, with the consent of the remaining Gouncll
Members, Councilman Seymour requested that Mrs. Murphy, representing the sports
interest, and Mr. Dale Woodward, 136 Pinney Drive, Anaheim, 92007, representing
those residents living in the immediate vicinity of Pinney and Gerda, each
submit six names for membership on this task force in an attempt to set up a
first meeting early next week.
Councilman Seymour further stated that this problem is of no surprise to
him; that he is well aware of the number of capital improvements needed inmany
areas of the City. He pointed out that a short while ago during the debate on
the Admission-Amusement Tax, although it was widely advertised as a vehicle
with which to build a City Hall, this was far from the truth. The purpose of
the Admission-Amusement Tax was to provide a financing method for the necessary
capital improvements throughout the City. He reported on the progress made in
establishing a Citizens' Capital Improvement Committee whose task it will be to
define the specific long-term capital improvement needs as well as the means of
financing them. He remarked that the specific problem brought to Council's
attention today is an indicator of the capital improvement problems
forthcoming.
Both Mrs. Murphy and Mr. Woodward agreed to select and submit names for
membership on the task force for this project.
At the conclusion of discussion, correspondence was submitted by Mary
Dinndorf, President of the Santa Ana Canyon Improvement Association, Inc.,
requesting that the Council give top priority to the development of Canyon Site
No. 1 located at Pinney and Gerda Drives.
No further action was taken by the City Council at this time.
RECO~'fENDATIONS REGARDING FEE INCREASES - STADIUM~ CONVENTION CENTER
A1~ GOLF COURSES: Mr. Tom Liegler presented the following recommendations for
increases in fees at the Anaheim Stadium, Convention Center and H. G. "Dad"
Miller Municipal Golf Course. He advised that they feel these recommendations
are in line with the goals and objectives approved by the Council at their last
meeting, and some are in concurrence with Arthur Young & Company
recommendations. He remarked that these fees, even increased, would remain
competitive with those charged by similar facilities.
INTERIOR ,EXHIBIT SPACE - STADIUM AND CONVENTION CENTER: Recommended $.0!
increase to $.08 per square foot for interior exhibit space.
PARKING FEES - STADIUM AND CONVENTION CENTER: Recommended revision to fee
schedule upwards to $1.59 per automobile.
GREEN FEES - H. G. "DAD" MILLER ANAHEIM ~NICIPAL GOLF COURSE: Recommended
$.50 across the board increase in green fees at the It. G. "Dad" Miller Course
only.
Brief discussion ensued regarding the justifications for the increases in
fees and it was noted that the City of Anaheim currently charges less to park
at the Stadium and Convention Center facilities than most other cities surveyed
with two exceptions. Personnel costs and higher prices for asphalt paving have
also contributed to the need for tile fee increases.
City ltall, Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTI,:S - l~.o. vember .1,~ 1'375~ 1:30 P'H'
Councilman Seymour stated that the important factor to consider in
connection with the proposed fee increases is that the citizens of Anaheim have
been most vocal in their viewpoint that the Stadium and Convention Center have
operated in the red for too many years. If tt~ese facilities are to be operated
as an enterprise function, the fee schedule must be competitive in the market
place and must cover the cost of operation.
~'Ir. Liegler also explained that it has been ascertained t~at there is now
a higher average number of people per automobile and consequently fewer auto-
mobiles coming into the parking lot, although the operation of the lot requires
the same number of employees.
In response to Councilwoman Kaywood, Fir. LiegJ. er advised that it is not
recommended that fees for bus parking be increased inasmuch as they are
currently attempting to encourage attendance by charter groups.
Mr. Pat Patterson, Chairman of the Golf Course Advisory Commission,
reported that they are in agreement and would recommend approval of the
increases in green fees as proposed. He commented t~at the green fees at the
H. C. "Dad" Miller Course after the increase would still be competitive~ but it
is estimated the increase will generate an additional $49,000 annually.
At the conclusion of discussion, on motion by Councilman Seymour, seconded
by Councilwoman Kaywood, the City Council approved a $.01 increame in net
square foot rental for interior exhibit space and increase in parking fees to
$1.50 per automobile at both the Anaheim Stadium and Convention Center. MOTION
CARRIED.

house for alcoholism and drug related problems at 205 South Claudina Avenue
s~o~id hOC be revoked for failure to comply with the conditions imposed by the
City i~ granting the permit.
Public hearing on said Order to Show Cause was held September 16, 1~75
after which the Council declared their intent to revoke Conditional Use Permit
;~o. 1475 but continued decision on the matter to permit the half-way house
operation time to relocate and make application for conditional use permit at

~.liss Santalahti reported that field investigation of subject property on

South Claudina Avenue location, the others have all vacated tt~e premises and no
administrative functions are being conducted from this address at the current
time. She advised that it has been reported all individuals will be moved out
as of ;Ionday, November 24, 1975.
The ~ayor asked if a representative of the l~alf-way house was present and
Miss Santalahti indicated that Mr. Alvarado was at the meeting earlier but had
to leave.
75-1005
City H. all; Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 18~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Gerald Bushore, property owner at 205 and 209 East Broadway, Anaheim,
and Mrs. Oneida Copeland, 207 South Claudina Street, Anaheim, addressed the
Council and voiced their concern that this operation, in fact, be entirely
moved out of the 205 South Claudina Street location by Monday, November 24,
1975. Mr. Bushore referred to a similar situation on South Anaheim Boulevard,
and the difficulties experienced in vacating it once the operation was
discontinued. Mrs. Copeland was of the opinion that there were currently more
men in residence than four as reported by the Planning Department.
Mr. Watts advised that if the City Council terminates Conditional Use
Permit No. 1475, and it is later discovered that there is a violation of the
City Zoning Ordinances, the City could file a misdemeanor complaint against the
owners or operators of the property in the North Orange County Judicial
District.
In response to the fears expressed by the two area residents that ttle
occupants of the half-way house would not leave the property promptly, Mayor
Thom stated that the only action which the Council can take at this time is the
termination of the conditional use permit. Subsequent to that tile Zoning
Enforcement Officer will inspect the property on Monday, November 24, 1975,.and
any necessary action to enforce compliance initiated at that time.

CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - VARIANCE NO. 272U: (Tract No. ~75~, Revision No. 2,
Environmental Impact Report Mo. 133.) Application by C. Michael, Inc., for the
following Code waivers to establish a ll6-unit, l17-1ot RM-4000 subdivision at
the southeast corner of Vermont Avenue and East Street was submitted together
with E.I.R. No. 133:
a. Requirement that all lots abut a public street.
b. Minimum distance between buildings.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC75-203, denied
Variance No. 2728 and reported that E.I.R. No. 133, having been certified as
being in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act by the City
Council on October 15, 1974, required no further action be taken at this time.
Appeal from action taken by the City Planning Commission was filed by
C. M. Jones, President, C. Michael, Inc., and public hearing scheduled
November ll, 1975, which was subsequently continued to this date at the request
of the applicant.
The Deputy City Clerk submitted correspondence received from Steven M.
Chavez, 1403 Cortney Place, Anaheim, in favor of the project; and from C. Birk
Lefler for Park Properties, Inc., owners of Lot Nos. 1, 5, 6, 7, ~, 10, 11, 13,
14, 15, 16, 17 and 18 of Tract No. 5452 (industrial development on the
southwest corner of Vermont and East Streets stating opposition to the project
primarily based on any deviation from setback requirements and because of the
increase in density.
Miss Santalahti described the surrounding land uses and zoning. She noted
that the applicant proposes to develop a ll6-unit multiple family subdivision
in the RM-4000 Zone. The buildings would be detached, single-story and
constructed in sets of two dwelling units per structure. The net density would
75-1006
City Hal!~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 1U~ 1975~ 1:30 P.M.
be 7.2 units per acre including the private streets. There would be 2.7 acres
of common open recreational space provided, with amenities such as tennis
courts, recreation building, swimming pool and children's play area. The
dwelling units would have common walls on one side, built on separate lots with
the zero lot line concept.
The dwelling units proposed would have two and three bedrooms, and range
from 980 to 1,267 square feet. Each unit would be provided with a two-car
garage; 56 units would have two parking spaces in a 25-foot deep driveway; 173
guest parking spaces would be provided parallel on the private street. This
constitutes a total of 517 parkin$ spaces with a ratio of 4.5 spaces per unit.
The vehicular circulation is proposed by private drive on the perimeter with
cul-de-sacs. There are two access points planned, one each to Vermont and East
Streets. A 15- to 20-foot wide landscaped buffer area witi~ a 6-foot wall on
the rear of said setback is planned for a buffer from East and Vermont Streets.
Miss Santalahti described the requested Code waivers and read the
justification upon which the City Planning Commission based their denial,
specifically that this proposal combines single- and multiple-family concepts;
provides private rather than public streets; offers minimum lot sizes which, are
substandard RS-7200 lots; reflects a lack of amenities as would be required for
a planned community zone; and lack of true open space due to the proposal to
place 6-foot fences around private recreation areas which would prevent access
and visibility to the common recreational open space.
The Mayor asked if the applicant or his agent wished to address the
Council.
Mr. Bill Phillips, representing C. Hichael, Inc., displayed a plot plan
and explained the modifications which were made to this plan as a result of
concerns voiced by the City Planning Commission. The proposed 6-foot privacy
fencing on the interior areas of the plan has been reduced to 4~ feet which
permits visibility and establishes an inside-outside relationship with the
dwelling unit. Gates will also be provided in these 4~-foot fences onto the
pedestrian walkways thereby providing access to open spaces and recreational
amenities without the need to cross streets.
~.ir. Phillips reported that another concern raised at the Planning
Commission hearing was that of the 20-foot setback from the adjacent
residential properties. In connection with this Mr. Phillips stated that the
setback provided on this plot plan averages 25 feet with a minimum of 20 feet.
A restriction has also been included in the proposed C.C, & R.s for the
project which would prohibit the building of any room additions whatsoever
which would encroach into this setback area. He further advised that they
would like to increase the height of the required 6-foot masonry wall on the
south and east property lines to provide a 7-foot wall.
Mr. Phillips stated that the street widths proposed in the private drive
are 30 and 32 feet and these would be constructed in accordance with the City
standards; that the use of private streets would allow the developer to place
more land in open, usable recreational space rather than in right-of-way for
streets and roads.
In conclusion, Mr. Phillips stated that he thought the Planning Commission
had brought out some positive constructive points to which his firm has
responded. He offered to present a brief series of slides Which illustrate
projects similar to the one proposed.
In response to Councilwoman Kaywood, Mr. Phillips advised tImt they would
like to install rolled curbs and place planters at the end of the cul-de-sacs
as these would relate to a more human scale and provide some neighborhood
identity.
Councilwoman Kaywood remarked that rolled curbs invite parking on the
sidewalks, particularly when conditions are such that there is parking avail-
able on only one side of the street. She voiced the opinion that it appears
the applicant is proposing to place the typical RS-5000 subdivision home on a
4,000-foot lot. A home of this type in the RS-5000 Zone would require five
parking spaces and this project does not provide sufficient parking to satisfy
that requirement.

City liall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November lo~ .1975~ 1:30 P.M.
In response to Council questions, Mr. Phillips pointed out the proposed
private spaces shown on the plot plan would be enclosed by 4½-foot high fencing
equipped with gates.
Councilman Sneegas questioned whether a restriction placed in the C.C. &
Rs as described by the developer to prohibit add-on construction would be
sufficient or whether this prohibition might be changed at a later date by the
members of the homeowners' association.
l~[r. Watts replied that the owners of the units who make up the homeowners'
association could change the C.C. & Rs to remove this restriction and he would
therefore suggest that should the Council approve the variance and tentative
tract and desire to preclude additional construction, that they add a condition
to thc variance which would accomplish this. It would then require a dual
process, amend the C.C. & Rs and conditions of the variance and tentative map
to permit such expansion type construction in the future.
Councilwoman Kaywood pointed out that she is concerned that while the RS-
5000 Zone has a built-in provision regarding construction to increase the size
of the homes, it is usually permitted when an individual homeowner applies for
a building permit, even though the lot coverage is more than that which is
allowed. She questioned whether any such control exists in the RM-4UO0 Zone
since, in her opinion, if any additional construction is permitted on the
project it would change the entire concept.
i-iiss Santalahti reported that the RM-4000 Zone requirements allow lot
coverage based on the total project area and not based on individual lots, and
therefore an individual owner could build onto the unit without being in
conflict with provisions of said zone. If Council wishes to preclude this
possibility, she also suggested that this point be covered in. one of the
conditions.
Councilwoman Kaywood voiced her concern that no additional construction be
permitted and further that the rolled curbs suggested by the developer not be
permitted inasmuch as they generally do not work out.
Miss Santalahti remarked that private streets on which a street numbering
identification system is planned to be used are required to be built in con-
formance with City standards which would not permit the rolled curbs.
Mr. Maddox commented that if a private street is not built to City
standards, in the event a homeowners' association should wish to dedicate same
to the City at some time in the future, the City does not have to accept the
dedication but retains the option of having the street rebuilt to conform to
City standards at that time.
Mr. Phillips stated that the question regarding the streets meeting City
standards is in regard to the right-of-way requirements and not construction
standards; that they have exceeded the City requirements for ratio of cul-de-
sacs and curbs.
The b~yor asked if anyone wished to address the Council either in favor or
in opposition to Variance No. 2728.
Mr. Clyde Farrow, 1023 South Dove Place, Anaheim, advised that he is
representing residents on Avocado Street and Dove Place whose homes abut the
property lines of subject project. He stated that with the stipulation made by
the developer that he would add one additional foot to the required 6-foot
masonry wail on the east and south property lines, thereby providing a 7-foot
wall, they would have no opposition to ~he project.
~yor Thom asked if anyone else wished to address the Council, there being
no response, he declared the hearing closed.
Councilman Seymour stated that with the modifications to the plan
explained by the applicant, i.e., the 7-foot wall abutting the single-family
residential neighborhood to the east and south; reduction to 4!~ feet of fencing
with ~ate access to the open areas on the interior of the project itself; and
inclusion in the C.C. & Rs of a prohibition against construction in the
setback areas; he would not be as concerned about the parking situation
75-1
C. ity tlail, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MIi~UTES - N..ovem~ber .1~r 1975, .1:..3.0~ P'H'
inasmuch as it appears to him from tile plot plan that the units are clustered
in such a way so as to avoid parking congestion.
Councilman Sneegas questioned whether the restriction to be added to the
C.C. & Rs and to the variance and tract map would preclude building just in
~he 20- to 25-foot setback and Councilman Seymour clarified that he felt there
s~ould be a prohibition against any construction to expand or enlarge the ~nits
of said project.
Councilwoman Kaywood pointed out that this prohibition should be
emphasized so that all potential buyers will be aware that no add-on rooms
would be permissible.
RESOLUTION NO. 75R-59~: Councilman Seymour offered Resolution No. 75R-59~ for
adoption, approving Variance No. 2728, subject to Interdepartmental Committee
conditions as follows, amended to provide for the 7-foot masonry wall on the
east and south property lines; 4!~-foot fences enclosing the private spaces on
the interior of the project itself; and addit~.onal condition precluding any
construction ~o expand the size of the dwelling units to be added ~o the C.C. &
Rs for the project and further made a condition of approval of this variance.
1. That this variance is granted subject to the completion of

75R-519, declaring Council's intent to consider abandonment of a portion of
Gain Street and erection of an appropriate buffer on the northerly property
line of Tract No. 6691, public hearing was scheduled this date.
Councilman Seymour advised that 'he had met with interested citizens and
property owners regarding this matter and that the majority of these people
have requested the public hearing on this abandonment be held at an evening
meeting on December 2, 1975. Councilman Seymour thereupon moved that the
public hearing on Abandonment No. 75-7A be continued to December 2, 1975, at

TENTATIVE }lkPS~ TP~CT NOS. ~{866~ REVISION NO. 2 A}~ 9097: Developer, George
Heltzer; property located between Romneya Drive and La Palma Avenue, west of
State College Boulevard; Tract No. 3866, Revision bio. 2 containing 46 proposed
RS-5000 zoned lots and Tract No. 9097 containing 115 proposed RS-500o zoned
lots.
Councilman Pebley left the Council Chamber. (3:20 P.M.)
~{iss Santalahti related that when the Planning Commission reconm~ended
approval of Tract No. 3366, Revision No. 1, it was with the reconunendation that
the park in-lieu fees collected in connection with this particular tract be
utilized to make improvements at either Sycamore Junior High School or at
Edison Park to eliminate some of the problems associated with park deficiencies
in that service area.
i~,iayor Thom noted that communication was received by Council Members
relative to this matter from Mr. Don Berryman, together with a copy of a
petition which was presented at the public hearing on the rezoning of subject
property, 5iarch 25, 1975.
Noting that there were a number of interested citizens in the Chamber,
Mayor Thom recognized Mr. Don Berryman, 1316 East Belmont Avenue, Anaheim,
Chairman of the Parent-Advisory Sci~ool Council, Edison School.
l.lr. Berryman stated that he represents a large group of concerned citizens
who wish the Council to give serious consi~{eration to expansion of Edison Park.
He noted that when this matter first came before the City Council the developer
proposed 252 adult condominiums and that project was to provide its
recreational amenities. Subsequent to that hearing, on Septe~,~ber 29, 1975, a
ne~.~ plan was submitted to the City Planning Commission indicating t~at the
developer wished to build 163 single-family homes, without any provisions for
recreational amenities, which plan was approved by the City Council.
Berryman stated that this single-family development will have a large impact on
the use of Edison Park and further noted that the developer proposes to build
these single-family homes using hillside standards even though this is a flat
land development, tie questioned what the City is receiving in return for
permitting this deviation from the normal requirements and contended that the
park in-lieu fees collected from this tract should be put into a fund and used
to purchase one additional acre of land to be added to Edison Park or that the
developer should be requested to dedicate one or two acres for expansion of the
park as this is the approximate area the developer will gain from being
permitted to use hillside standards.
In connection with the suggestion that the grounds at Sycamore Junior High
be used for recreational purposes, Mr. Berryn~an stated that most parents will
not allow their children to cross La Palma Avenue, and furthermore there are no
facilities at Sycamore Junior High School for children under junior high school
age, not to mention the lack of restrooms.
Mr. Berryman urged the Council to consider this proposal even if the money
for development of the additional space may not be available since once Tract
Nos. 3866 and 9097 are developed, there will be no further opportunity to
expand Edison Park.
75-1011
City !!.all., Anaheim; California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 1U; 1975~ 1..:..3.0 P~M.
Councilman Pebley returned to the Council Chamber. (3:50 P.M.)
Councilwoman Kaywood recalled that when this item was discussed the
developer was willing to sell one acre to the City for approximately $85,000
and Mr. John Collier, former Parks, Recreation and the Arts Director, indicated
that ti~e property offered which was a long narrow strip adjacent to Baxter
Street would not be advantageous for expansion of Edison Park.
?.~r. Jerry Williams, a concerned parent and manager in Little League,
advised that Edison Park is currently used to its maximum capacity, and some
extra space is definitely needed. He felt the request being made for some
additional land is insignificant compared to what the developer stands to
profit from the sale of this property.
l~rs. Margaret Hueler, 1015 Liberty Lane, Anaheim, questioned whether the
amount quoted for one acre of property is the going price since she lives one-
quarter mile to the west of Edison Park and the price for a one-quarter acre
lot is $7,000 to $8,000.
The ~layor asked if a representative of Mr. George l~eltzer was present in
the Chamber and there was no response.
Councilman Sneegas pointed out that inasmuch as subject property was sold
by the Anaheim Union High School District, another public entity, to tills
developer, there would appear to be a moral issue involved in the City now
requestin~l some land be returned.
Councilwoman Kaywood felt timt on the other hand, there is a moral issue
involved when the developer had purchased the land at $55,000 per acre and then
offers to sell it back to the City in the same state at $85,000 per acre.
At the conclusion of discussion, Councilman Thom assured the interested
citizens present that their message was well understood and that the Council
would have to seek some way to resolve tl~is matter with the developer, which
would necessitate continuance of the request.
l~r. Watts cautioned that he woulJ not suggest a continuance of lonser than
one week inasmuch as the request before the Council today is actually to
develop an already approved tentative map in two phases. He noted that the
developer has the ability now to develop the property in accordance with
Tentative Map No. 8866, Revision No. 1 in one phase, and therefore in his
opinion the Council's bargaining position is not strong.
Councilman Seymour explained the Council's situation with regard to this
ne~otiation and advised he was willing to continue the matter one week to see
what the Council might accomplish, however he wished it understood by the
interested citizens that the City's position is a weak one.
On motion by Councilman Thom, seconded by Councilman Seymour, action on
Tentative Maps, Tract Nos. ~866, Revision No. 2 and 9097, was continued to the
meeting of November 25, 1975. ~DTION CARRIED.
RECESS: By general consent, the City Council determined they would take a ten-
minute recess. (4:05 P.M.)
AFTEI% RECESS: Mayor Thom called the meeting to order, all Members of the City
Council being present. (4:15 P.M.)

The City Engineer recommended approval and reported that said final map
conforms substantially with the tentative map previously approved and amended
pursuant to Revision No. 1, that bond has been forwarded to the City Attorney
for approval and required fees paid.

AGREE~iEi~T - E,~IERGENCY HOUSING (FEAP): The City Attorney reported on a proposed

would provide temporary housing for those families referred through thc Family
Emergency Assistance Program (¥EAP) at $12.00 per night keeping certain
specific records on these rentals to provide City Auditors with such records.
The terms of the agreement are from December 1, 1975 through September 30,
1976.
In response to Councilman Seymour, Mr. Harding advised that tills motel was
selected because of its proximity to a dining establishment and ~ecause of
those motels contacted, they appeared to be most interested. The agreement is
non-exclusive and similar agreements can be made with other available motels.
