RECLASSIFICATION RESOLUTION NO. PC2002-118
CONDIT(ONAL USE PERMIT RESOLUTION NO. PC2002-119 SR8396KB.DOC
Chairperson Bostwick introduced Item No. 2 as Conditional Use Permit No. 2002-04554, 1126 Norfh
Euclid Street, a request to construct a 36-unit detached residential condominium subdivision with waivers.
• Applicant's Testimony:
Brian Johnson, 34352 Shore Lantern, Suite 135, Dana Point, CA, representing Pelican Homes, states he
and staff differ in relation to the front wall adjacent to Euclid Street. During the Planning Commission
08-12-02
Page 6
AUGUST 12, 2002
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
• Meeting of July 29, 2002, a 3-foot high wall combined with 3-foot high Plexi glass was proposed and
denied. Currently he proposes a 3-foot high wall combined with 3-foot high wrought iron. He feels it
would not create a massive wall adjacent to Euclid Street but would create more security, and the
wrought iron could be painted to match the exterior of the building.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Commissioner Eastman asked if he had any photos to illustrate how the fence would look.
Mr. Johnson responded no, but the 3-foot wall would stay the same and 3-foot wrought iron measuring
approximately 6 inches wide would be placed on top of it.
Commissioner Eastman states she would want to know what the wall looked like before she could
support it. She feels from a historical standpoint it would be a Mediterranean look.
Mr. Johnson asked if a condition could be added to state that the 3-foot wall and 3-foot wrought iron
combination would have to meet Planning Commission's approval.
Greg McCafferty, Principal Planner, states anything above 3-feet, regardless of the combination, is a
waiver from City code.
Chairperson Bostwick states a condition could be added that the plans would have to come back for
approval by the Planning Commission as a Reports & Recommendations item.
Commissioner Koos states he is not comfortable with increasing the wall height above 3 feet because it
creates a fortified look. He feels it adds to the streetscape and does not take away from the value and
• safety of the homes or peoples desire to live there.
Commissioner Bristol states he compared Broadway to Euclid Street and there is a big difference.
Broadway has a hedge-type look to help break it up. He has seen projects on Brookhurst Street and
Lincoln Avenue and it looks boxy and private. He is in favor of the 3-foot wall and 3-foot wrought iron
combination.
Commissioner Koos asked Commissioner Bristol if he would reiterate the Reports & Recommendations
Item until he is comfortable with the design.
Commissioner Bristol responded yes, because Commission is happy with the rest of the site and the
wrought iron could be designed in the Spanish/Mediterranean style.
Commissioner Eastman states she is against the fortified look but is swayed by the busyness of the
commercial street and the fact that the houses that would front on Euclid Street would virtually not have a
backyard. She feels 5 feet would make it only a couple feet of wrought iron rather than a 50/50 deal, so
as not to have a block wall look. The fence would have a nice stucco appearance to match the exterior of
the homes, giving it a courtyard look of the older Spanish, smoothed stucco look, seen 50-75 years ago.
Commissioner Koos states it is the front elevation of the property, and regardless to whether or not the
potential residents have places to recreate is less of a concern than the image of the corridor.
Commissioner Bristol states if Commission is trying to generate mid-house block housing, the proposed
wall would look better, especially fronting Euclid Street.
Commissioner Koos states Commission could approve the variance in a year, after the project is built, if it
appears it is not working out.
• Chairperson Bostwick states he is torn by the fact that it is on a very busy street, and not having it look
closed in with a 6-foot block wall. He prefers wrought iron 5 feet high, without a block wall, and shrubbery

~ in front of it, similar to what is on Broadway. He feels wrought iron alone gives it a look of an industrial
property rather than a residential property.
Commissioner Eastman states she is very pleased with the elevations of the project and the design of the
units, and if the applicant could do a fence that would look appropriate, architecturally, she could see it
looking as it is the biggest, attractive thing about the project.
Commissioner Romero states 6 feet, regardless of the material, is too high and would give a closed in
look.
FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION.
OPPOSITION: None
ACTION: Approved CEQA Negative Declaration
Granted Reclassification No. 2002-00075 (to reclassify this property from the
RS-A-43,000 Zone to the RM-2400 Zone), subject to the conditions of approval as
stated in the staff report dated August 12, 2002.
Approved, in part, Waiver of Code Requirement, as follows:
Approved waivers pertaining to (a) required improvements of private streets since the
existing private street standards were not intended for attached condominium residential
developments, but rather for detached dwelling units. The plans provide adequate
• pedestrian access from the individual dwelling units to the public right-of-way (Euclid
Street), and the Public Works Department will be revising the standards for private
streets in the near future, and (f) minimum width of pedestrian accessways since the
minimum width of pedestrian accessway was intended for higher density apartment
units, with residents sharing the accessway in order to reach their dwelling units. The
proposed design is intended for individual accessways for specific residents walking to a
specific dwelling unit.
(Vote: 5-0, Commissioners Boydstun and Vanderbilt absent)
Denied waiver (b) pertaining to maximum fence height since the property is a large,
rectangularly-shaped lot with opportunities to comply with the development standards for
maximum fence height and such a fence would detract from the design of the project.
(Vote: 3-2, Commissioners Bristol and Eastman voted no and Commissioners
Boydstun and Vanderbilt absent)
Denied waivers pertaining to (c) minimum dimensions of parking spaces, (d) minimum
number and type of parking spaces, and (e) minimum building setback since the revised
plans have deleted these waivers.
(Vote: 5-0, Commissioners Boydstun and Vanderbilt absent)
Granted, in part, Conditional Use Permit No. 2002-04554 (to permit a 32-unit attached
residential condominium subdivision), subject to the conditions of approval as stated in
the staff report dated August 12, 2002, with the following modifications:
Deleted Condition Nos. 27 and 28 (these conditions were removed and added to the
Tentative Tract Map conditions of approval.)
~ Modified Condition Nos. 29 and 32 to read as follows:

~ 29. That all condominium units shall be assigned street addresses
submitted to and approved by the Building Division.
32. That prior to issuance of a building permit, or within a period of one (1) year from
the date of this resolution, whichever occurs first, Condition Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7,
8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 22, 24, 25, ?~, 29, 30 and 31,
above-mentioned, shall be complied with. Extensions for further time to complete
said conditions may be granted in accordance with Section 18.03.090 of the
Anaheim Municipal Code.
Approved Tentative Tract Map No. 16371 to permit a 13-lot [8 numbered and 5 lettered],
32-unit attached residential airspace condominium subdivision, subject to the conditions
of approval as stated in the staff report dated August 12, 2002, with the following
modifications:
Added the following conditions of approval to read as follows:
That the City of Anaheim sewer connection fee shall be paid.
That the developer shall pay the Sewer Capacity Mitigation Fee for the West Anaheim
Area.
That the street name for the private street (if requested by the developer or required by the
City) shall be submitted to and approved by the Building Division.
• Approved Waiver of Council Policy No. 542 pertaining to sound attenuation of residential
projects with regard to exterior noise levels since construction of a 6-foot high block wall
adjacent to Euclid Street would detract from the project design and the primary
recreation/open space areas are either to the rear of each unit or in the common
recreation area located in the center of the site.
VOTE ON RECLASSIFICATION, CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, TENTATIVE TRACT MAP, AND
WAIVER OF COUNCIL POLICY: 5-0 (Commissioners Boydstun and Vanderbilt absent)

CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT RESOLUTION NO. PC2002-120 SR8386VN.DOC
~ Chairperson Bostwick introduced Item No. 4 as Conditional Use Permit No. 2002- 04551, 2721
Stonybrook Drive, a request to permit a telecommunications antenna and microwa ve dish on an existing
electrical transmission tower and accessory ground-mounted equipment.
Applicant's Testimony:
Paul Novak, 132 N. Maryland Avenue, Glendale, CA, representing Sprint PCS, states he has no
objections to the conditions as they have been rewritten.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
During The Action:
Greg McCafferty, Principal Planner, asked if there was any consideration regarding the issue of
landscaping.
Chairperson Bostwick asked if a condition could be crafted to state, "If the property ceases to be used as
a nursery, the applicant would landscape so that the building and fencing would not be visible from the
right-ofi-way".
Greg Hastings, Zoning Division Manager, responded yes, it would normally have to be landscaped
anyway with any other land use and if it could be used as nursery stock in a fashion where it is semi-
permanent, staff could work with the applicant.
Commissioner Eastman states it seems reasonable to add a condition that would require the applicant to
landscape within the vicinity of the building.
• Mr. McCafferty states staff feels there should be a minimum, 10-foot wide landscape strip, visible from
Stonybrook Drive.
08-12-02

AUGUST 12, 2002
PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES
~ Commissioner Eastman wished to clarify if the nursery would be a separate business.
Mr. McCafferty states because the nursery is already there, the applicant could pull some of the stock
forward towards Stonybrook Drive as part of the landscape setback.
Chairperson Bostwick asked the applicant to address the issue.
Mr. Novak states concern with their ability to impact another co-tenant on the property. Edison owns the
property and was able to get the nursery to deal with the unpermitted storage container issue. Sprint
PCS is constructing a building quite a distance into the property, approximately 500 feet from Stonybrook
Drive. He does not feel it changes visuaf impact upon Stonybrook Drive, and is concerned about having
to go back to Edison and interface with another tenant to get something to occur that is far in the
distance. Their leased area is approximately 19x19; a relatively small part of the property. He is
concerned about the ability of his client, who is going to be in a hurry to get a building permit, etc., to get
cooperation out of not just one but potentially two other parties; the nursery and Edison.
Mr. Hastings states in the past, Commission has allowed up to a year to install landscaping, giving the
applicant the ability to get whatever is needed to activate the antenna. Staff would like to see the
property owner be responsible for landscaping the front 10 feet, regardless of which tenant they are
working with. The intent is for aesthetics on the property.
Commissioner Bristol concurs the building is a nursery and far into the distance.
Chairperson Bostwick states he is not in favor of the nursery maintaining items on the property and would
rather have it in the ground. He suggests the applicant could have 6 months to a year to get the
landscaping installed.
.
OPPOSITION: None
ACTION: Commissioner Bristol offered a motion, seconded by Commissioner Eastman and
MOTION CARRIED (Commissioners Boydstun and Vanderbilt absent), that the Anaheim
City Planning Commission does hereby concur with staff that the proposed project falls
within the definition of Categorical Exemptions, Class 1(Existing Facilities), as defined in
the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines and is, therefore,
categorically exempt from the requirement to prepare additional environmental
documentation.

Chairperson Bostwick states Item No. 9 is a request to continue until September 9, 2002. He introduced
Item No. 9 as Conditional Use Permit No. 2002-04577, 2800 West Lincoln Avenue-Farmer Boys, a
request to construct a fast food restaurant with drive-through and pick-up window.
~ Public Testimony:
Raymond Tedford, 9071 Marchand Avenue, Garden Grove, CA, states he owns the property adjacent to
the proposed site (one lot to the west) and is in favor of the proposed site but has concerns with grading.
His property, built in 1965, is quite low and is a slab. The present drainage drains out of a driveway onto
Dale Avenue. The applicants are proposing to move the drain approximately 30 feet to the south, to the
end of their property, and there is a height difference of over 7 inches. He feels it is necessary to
construct the drainage in the driveway fairly low in order to have the rain drain onto Dale Avenue.
Melanie Adams, Principal Civil Engineer, states the applicant has an exhibit that currently shows the way
the property is draining and how he is proposing to change the pattern, and it appears the applicant would
need to regrade the property in order to accommodate the drainage.
