Greg McCafferty, Senior Planner, introduced this item stating this is a request for Reclassification No.
2000-00039, Variance No. 2000-04416, Tentative Tract Map No. 16171, for property located at the
southeast corner of Lemon Street and Water Street.
Brent Schultz, Redevelopment and Housing Development Manager, stated that this is a request from the
Anaheim Community Development Department. They are requesting a rezoning of property at the 600
block of South Lemon Street. This is a property that the City purchased approximately a year ago. They
are trying to create the lots and then give the ability for a developer to restore the homes to meet the
Anaheim Colony Historic District Guidelines. They are excited about the project and hope it will benefit
the neighborhood with new housing.
•
Robert P. Moore, 560 South Lemon Street, Anaheim, stated that he has no objections to the
reclassification, however, he has strong objections to the variance regarding parking. The
Redevelopment Agency is requesting that the parking requirements be reduced from 2 to 1, which he felt
is unacceptable. During the day they have a parking problem on Water Street. Adding 2 parking spaces
for each home proposed will add to the existing parking problem.

. His other concern is the reduction in the site requirements. Across the street from his home it is a very
( small lot which they are proposing to "shoe-horn" those old homes onto. He does not see how they are
going to have adequate space between homes and what the homes squeezed onto that lot will look like.
There are good reasons for the current setback requirements, lot coverage and lot widths and he does
not feel it should be any different for their neighborhood than for other neighborhoods. He asked that
those requirements be maintained.
ApplicanYs Rebuttal:
Brent Schultz explained that regarding Waiver (a), they can place 2 parking spaces on Lots 1 and 3
without having the homes "shoe-horned" in. The homes built in the 1920's are very small in width. The 2
homes on the site are actually 30 to 35 feet in width, which means there will be adequate side yard
setbacks that will meet the Code. One of the problems of the project has been the duplex on the property
that they are going to be preparing as a"for sale" home which will determine how large those lots will be
on either side of it, since there needs to be a 5-foot setback. The middle lot is 54 feet wide, which is not a
typical single-family lot and has caused the other lots on the side to be a little smaller. Fortunately, those
homes are smaller so they will not need as large of a lot width. There are other lots in the area that are
that size.
Greg McCafferty advised that the Planning staff is recommending denial of Waiver (a). They checked
with the Redevelopment Agency and they agreed with the recommendation.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Chairperson Koos asked staff to commerat on Mr. Moore's concern regarding the appearance of the
proposal and to compare it to a similar project in the City.
~. Brent Schultz gave the example of Atchison Street, from Center Street to Broadway, and the similarity of
how those homes are laid out. They are 20 feet in width which is consistent with that neighborhood.
Commissioner Bostwick felt that the lots can be made deeper by 5 or 10 feet and avoid the maximum lot
coverage Waiver (c). He hoped that they would be willing to make that change in their plans and not
simply apply for waivers. They would still have Waiver (b) and (d), not affect the outcome of the lots to
the east, and still have plenty of width to build residential lots there as well.
Chairperson Koos asked whether the Community Development Department could accomplish that.
Brent Schultz felt it would be extremely difficult. They have worked with their historic architect and feel
that these are consistent lot sizes. They are trying to design it in compliance with the Anaheim Colony
Historic District Guidelines and also make sure that they have sufficient size lots.
He also needs to plan for future developments of the other lots that the City owns to ensure that they
have a viable lot to develop and build onto. If the alley is pushed back then that lot would potentially be
unable to be developed.
Chairperson Koos asked whether his reasoning was that they would need to add a public street in the
middle of the block.
Brent Schultz stated that they might possibly need to add other smail private street to access the lots. If
they start reducing lot sizes any more, it will be difficult to build there.
Commissioner Boydstun asked how much width is needed for a public street.

CI7Y OF ANAHEIM PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
Melanie Adams, Associate Engineer, replied that a public residential street would require 60 feet of right-
(~ of-way and 20 feet for a public or a private alley. A private street with parking on both sides and private
sidewalk on both sides is 45 feet of right-of-way.
Commissioner Bostwick emphasized that there are 191 feet and if they were to build 3 lots (3, 50-foot
lots) would total 150 feet with 40 feet left over which would not make another lot. However, if they were to
move the alley to the east by 10 feet, there would be 181 feet available and they could divide that
between the three lots.
They are going to actually have 6 lots because there are 3 lots on each street (Water and Stueckle
Street). They are going to have 6 developable lots with an alley behind them that would give plenty of
square footage and will not need the extra waiver regarding the maximum lot coverage.
Brent Schultz stated that he would appreciate if those lots coufd remain as proposed, otherwise it is going
to lessen his options in the future.
Commissioner Arnold asked Mr. Schultz to explain why he would prefer to keep the lots as proposed.
Brent Schultz stated that they reviewed that carefully with their historic consultants and also looked at a
number of different options before they submitted their proposal. They need to come up with a design for
the vacant lot to ensure that they have an adequate size lot to design homes. There would be 190 feet
left from east to west. If one takes away 40 feet from 190 feet there would be 150 feet left on either side.
Commissioner Arnold corrected Mr. Schultz that Commissioner Bostwick indicated 10 feet and not 40
feet.
Brent Schultz stated if that were taken down to 181 feet and take 40 feet off and that would be 140 feet.
• He explained that 40 feet would be to allow for a street to access the lots. He was not certain whether
' they would use that approach. They have not done that analysis yet with the traffic engineer. Although,
one approach he has considered is installing a private street running north and south on the lot and
access the lots off of that. Every foot that is taken off reduces those lots.
Commissioner Arnold asked Mr. Schultz to clarify whether he is asking Commission to approve the
Tentative Tract Map and Reclassification without knowing what is going to happen with the streets, traffic,
etc. on Lot 2 and 4(east lots).
Brent Schultz confirmed that was correct. They are specifically looking at the lots that would be the
historic lots along the frontage.
Commissioner Arnold indicated that the site plan does not show sidewalks on it, but he assumed they are
in agreement with Condition No. 4, which provides that sidewalks will be installed along the frontage of
the street.
Brent Schultz verified that the developer would include sidewalks and make necessary repairs as directed
by the Public Works Department.
Commissioner Bristol stated that Mr. Moore testified that there is a parking problem on Water Street.
Lorna Moore explained that people park along there during the day in order to catch the bus. They park
all along their street, some days are busier than other days.
Commissioner Boydstun agreed with Commissioner Bostwick that it should go back 10 feet which would
make a major difference.

Chairperson Koos stated that in their decision-making process, they are establishing the orientation of the
(• lots (widths and lengths), yet Mr. Schultz is pointing to those very dimensions as part of their rationale for
justifying waivers.
Greg McCafferty stated that the duplex on Lot 2 dictates the lot width and lot area of Lots 1 and 3. After
that, every single lot to the south of that on Lemon Street (except for the cut-of~ complies with the width
and the lot area the RS-5000 Zone. Essentially, the placement of the duplex effects the lot width on
either side of Lot 2.
Brent Schultz initially asked the engineer to set the property line at 5 feet from the duplex and Lot 1 at 45
feet. If they were to make Lots 1 and 3 at 45 feet, they can make all the others 50 feet wide. Thus the
duplex lot and the other 4 lots would meet the 50 feet width standard, but the other lots would not.
Chairperson Koos asked whether they could have only 6 lots fronting Lemon Street, since one of the
waivers is for maximum lot coverage. He wondered whether it has been thought out thoroughly, in terms
of all of the dimensions.
Chairperson Koos indicated that he is having difficulty reconciling the findings that need to be made.
Commissioner Arnold stated that the problem is that they cannot grant a variance on the basis of their
desired site development plans or on the basis of a self-created hardship or financial hardship. It needs
to be something regarding the nature of the property itself. If they are creating the nature of the property
itself with the tentative tract map then it is a self-created hardship.
Commissioner Bristol asked if this property was at one time zoned single-family then was later upzoned,
and now they are asking that it be downzoned again. He asked if that zoning change is the reason for the
problem with Lot 1.
~• Greg Hastings, Zoning Division Manager, advised that Reclassification No. 89-90-32 was a downzoning
that was done throughout the entire downtown area. That would indicate that it was likely zoned RM-
1200 and brought down to RM-2400 along with the rest of the neighborhood. It was probably not
downzoned to single-family because the philosophy of the City at the time was that they were interested
in multi-family for the downtown area. His recollection is that this has never been developed with
anything and has been vacant and been in one family. It appears to be equivalent to 7%2 lots directly
across the street from this. Across the street there are 2 or 3 lots that do not meet the 50-foot
dimensions.
Brent Schultz stated that the other area where the fots are smaller are located on Zeyn Street, which was
part of his justification for these lot widths.
Commissioner Arnold asked Mr. Schultz about his statement of being entitled to two waivers and the
justifications.
Brent Schlutz replied that Commission could consider granting waivers for a project because it is an
affordable project.
Commissioner Arnold explained that in order for Commission to grant the waivers they would need
evidence that it is affordable, but there is nothing before them, other than Mr. Schultz's statement, which
suggests that.
Selma Mann stated that this was not advertised as affordable housing which would have been of interest
to surrounding property owners in determining whether they wish to comment on the project.
Brent Schultz explained that it has a disposition agreement that states it will be an affordable project and
• the sales prices are set accordingly. He then requested a continuance to have this advertised as an
~ "affordable projecY'.

SR1074TW. DOC
Greg McCafferty, Senior Planner, introduced this item stating this item was continued in order to advertise
the variance along with the tract map which was accomplished. Staff recommended approval of the
amendment to the conditions on both the tract map and variance.
The tract map and the conditions will provide 28 parking spaces, but due to Fire Department access
concerns those were reduced down to 8 spaces on turn-outs on the private road. In addition to the
developer demonstrating that additional parking spaces could be placed within the driveways of each of
the respective lots. Based on that and the Fire Department concurring with the revised plans, staff
recommended approval and amendment to the condition.
Jon Head indicated that he was available to answer any questions.

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT RESOLUTION NO. PC2000-129 ~~ SR7$31VN.DOC
Greg McCafferty, Senior Planner, introduced this item stating this is a continued item for request of a
granny unit. Since the last meeting the unit size was reduced to 708 square feet, and from 3 bedrooms to
2 bedrooms. Staff provided a comparison of State law requirements with the petitian before Commission.
(. Staff recommended approval of the granny unit.
Susan Amroyan, from Clarban Homes, representing the applicant/owner. Since the last meeting they
have reduced the size of the proposed granny unit from 994 square feet to 708 square feet. Bedrooms
were reduced from 3 to 2. The owner would like her mother to live on the property in order to be closer to
her. The owner has compiled a convenent agreement stating that they will not be using this unit as a
rental and that it will strictly be used as a granny unit. The second bedroom will be used as a craft room
or a bedroom for one of the daughters to visit her mother.
Public Testimony:
James Murphy, 1887 Eileen Drive, Anaheim, stated he lives north of subject property. His concern is
what will happen to this property in the future. A commercial area, Garden Grove, and a drainage ditch
surround the area. Due to the expansion of Disneyland there will be a need for low-income housing in the
area. He felt that there would be a precedent set if this proposal were approved. If approved there
should be conditions attached to this proposal.
Condition No. 1 should state that a relative to the owner must occupy the unit. He wondered if the
present owner should sell the house would the person living there need to vacate.
Condition No. 2. He asked if the person living in the back should wish to buy the property, can they do so
and continue to live in the unit. The front home is not dealt with and it is then the property owner's
prerogative to rent the main house out.
His concerns have more to do with the stringent conditions that would preclude that any part of the
property from ever becoming a renta{ unit.
'. Frank Haselton, 1881 South Eileen Drive, Anaheim, stated he lives next door to Mr. Murphy and four
homes north of subject property. He submitted a letter dated November 13, 2000, which outlines his
11-20-00

CITY OF ANAHEIM PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
. concerns. This is a very close neighborhood. He is concerned that approval of this proposal would set
~ precedent, which would have a negative impact to their neighborhood. He appreciates the applicant
reducing the proposal, but still wonders why an elderly woman needs a 2 bedroom/ 2 bathroom, 708
square-foot unit. He does not know how Condition Nos. 1 and 2 are going to be enforced and is
concerned that the enforcement will be the responsibility of the neighborhood.
He indicated that the City does not have to approve a detached unit, that is not the way the State
government code is written. They have to approve a granny flat and have the option between the
attached and detached unit. He suggested adding on to the home instead to accommodate the elderly
relative that way.
If an occupancy change occurs in either the primary or secondary unit, the secondary unit would have no
more use, according to their intent, and should then be removed.
Richard Inskeep, 1893 South Eileen, Anaheim, addressed page 6 of the staff report under
Recommendation (ii), which indicates that the unit will not be visible to adjacent resident and would be
confined to the rear portion of the yard. However, according to the map it appears it will be located to the
side portion of the yard which is visible from the street.
ApplicanYs Rebuttal:
Susan Amroyan, responded that the covenant goes with the property. Whoever purchases it wil! have a
record stating that this is for an elderly person over the age of 62. The owner has a home based
business in her home and if the elderly woman is no longer living, she intends to use it as an office. The
owners want to keep the unit within the family and not have other people living on the property with them.
The unit will be located 11 feet from the flood channel, which is to one side of the residence and is not
• completely visible.
I
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Commissioner Arnold indicated he would be proposing a condition that requires the legal owner of the
property to submit annually a signed affidavit that the owner and any occupant is in compliance with all
the conditions including occupancy. That affidavit would be submitted to the Zoning Division. It is clear
that Code Enforcement is aware of these issues and will be attentive to them. The staff report does a
good job but the discretion that the City has on this matter is somewhat limited given the State statute.
Commissioner Vanderbilt stated at the morning session there was discussion about the need to address
this type of proposal in the future since there will probably be more of these types of projects proposed. I~
was felt that they needed to review the issue comprehensively. His tendency is to wait until they are able
to discuss the topic in depth and come up with a proposed ordinance that addresses these types of
developments. The neighbors' concerns of preserving the character of the neighborhood are an
important consideration. He felt that a separate structure does not guarantee a change of character from
single-family homes to multiple-family.
Commissioner Arnold stated that Commissioner Vanderbilt makes excellent points about the need to
review.at this comprehensively. Unfortunately, this is a situation where there is a proposal before
Commission with the rules in place at the time of the proposal. It is unfortunate that they have not moved
more proactively as a City to adopt standards. The City's position has been that the State standards are
what control and therefore, it would be unfair to the applicant to hold off until they adopt standards. It is
important to assure residents that Commission does want to move forward proactively and develop very
clear standards regarding this issue as far as the State statute will allow them to go.
Commissioner Vanderbilt asked Commissioner Arnold if it is his feeling that because the State would
• allow such a development that the Commission should approve it even though there is a CUP process
that has discretion.
11-20-00

(. Commissioner Arnold explained that his understanding of the State statute is that this becomes the
default standard under which they have to evaluate these issues unless they adopt their own standards.
They only have certain limited discretion even in adopting their own standards.
Selma Mann, Assistant City Attorney, agreed. There is a specific provision in State statute (Planning and
Zoning Law, Chapter 4) that addresses the timing of approval or disapproval (Section 65852.2,
Subsection (b). There is a 120-day limitation on making a decision after an application is received. She
did not feel it would be appropriate to hold up the process, and in addition there would be some issues
regarding the "Permit Streamlining Act" that may come into play.
Chairperson Koos asked Ms. Mann if she was asserting that there are no grounds to deny this project. If
so, this would not be discretionary.
Selma Mann replied that there would be greater discretion had the Cify adopted its own ordinance, but
absent the City's adopting its own ordinance and having it default to the State standards then there is very
limited discretion.
Commissioner Bostwick read, "The legislative body of any City or County shall not enact an ordinance
which has the affect of prohibiting or of unreasonably resfricting the use."
Commissioner Bristol stated that he understood Mr. Murphy and Mr. Haselton's concerns because
Commission also expressed those concerns at their morning session. This is a use that will probably
become more prevalent in Anaheim as time goes on. He assured residents present that Commission is
going to take a proactive look at this use throughout the City and ensure that the use is not rented in the
way the neighbors expressed their concerns.
• Chairperson Koos was not comfortable that what is being proposed is enforceable. Asked Mr. Little, the
owner, why not simply add on to the house as suggested by one of his neighbors.
Robert Little replied that the house has already been added on to. The way it is laid out now would be
very inconvenient and he would prefer not to be living under the same roof as his mother-in-law.
Commissioner Arnold suggested that one of the things that the City can do in developing the
computerized system of tracking CUP's is that they could adopt some mechanism for tracking these type
of uses in the future and whether or not the signed affidavits are filed.
Selma Mann made a correction regarding her previous comment regarding 120 days. It is applicable only
to the first application that the City receives and not to the subsequent ones. However, there are some
constraints in view of the fact that this is a Categorica! Exemption with regard to the Permit Streamlining
Act. The "shall" that she discussed was in the Section 65852.2 (b) that states "not withstanding Section
65901 every local agency shall grant a special use or a conditional use permit for the creation of a second
unit if the second unit complies with all of the following" and those findings are listed in paragraph 20,
page 3 of the staff report.
Commissioner Vanderbilt stated that in light of the legal opinion he felt obligated to act despite his
previous concerns and would, therefore, vote in favor of proposal.
Chairperson Koos indicated he is also voting in favor of the proposal even though he does not like the
affect it may have on the integrity of the single-family neighborhood. It is unfortunate that it is one of
those issues that has "slipped through the cracks" in terms of how to judge projects such as this one.
Commissioner Bristol disagreed. If he were not comfortable with this proposal and thought it would
impact the neighborhood then he would not vote for it. However, he felt that the applicant has revised
• their proposal and addressed Commission's concerns and complies with the State statutes.

. Commissioner Bostwick stated that it is true that there is going to be much pressure on this neighborhood
( as the need for housing increases in the City. He is surprised that there are not currently more rental
units and felt that the impact of rental units is much more devastating then having a granny unit. He
commended the neighbors for maintaining the neighborhood to this point.

OPPOSITION: 3 people spoke with concerns
ACTION: Concurred with staff that the proposed project falls within the definition of Categorical
Exemptions, Class 3, as defined in the State EIR Guidelines and is, therefore,

deleted following public notification.
