City Hall, Anahelm,.California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 16, 1971, 7;30 P.M.
Mr. Murdoch advised that the Federal program under which the Hol-
stein Homes were built tended to encourage the type of development that had
been constructed there. Also, referring back to the homes on Polk Street,
mentioned by Co~nissioner Seymour, Mr.' Murdoch reminded the two bodies pre-
sent that these homes were built prior to annexation to the City, as was
the case with Dream Homes along Brookhurst Street, and the 'Freeway Park
Homes, all of which are below the standards of the City of Anaheim, and
would not have been allowed to be built if those areas had been a part of
Anaheim at that time.

UNANIMOUSLY CARRIED.
REPORT - FINANCIAL DEMANDS AGAINST THE CITY: Demands against the City, in the
amount of $795,672.48, in accordance with the 1970-71 Budget, were approved.
GENERAL PLAN A~NDMENT NO. 122 - DECISION: Proposed increase in residential den-
sities in that area bounded on the west by Imperial Highway, on the north
by Esperanza Road, on the east by Eucalyptus Drive, and on the south by Santa
Ana Canyon Road.
The City Planning Commission reaffirmed their previous recommenda-
tion that the Santa Ana Canyon area develop as a low-density residential com-
munity, and that Exhibit "A", of General Plan Amendment No. 122, as amended,
be approved.
Public Hearing by the City Council was continued from the meeting
of November 17, 1970, to February 16, 1971, at which time said hearing was
closed and decision continued to this date, pending action by the Orange
County Planning Commission on Orange County Use Permit No. 3121, providing
for a 347-space mobile home park on property zoned R-2~4,000 located on the
north side of Santa Ana Canyon Road, opposite Mohler Drive (Danker property.)
Communication received this date from Howard L. Budlong was read
in full, suggesting development of the area commence in the River bottom, due
to drainage problems.
ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS - FLOOD HAZARDS: In answer to Councilman Dutton's
question concerning the Army Corps of Engineers' report, Fir. Charles Roberts
advised that the reports received are in the form of three letters and are
preliminary reports, each applying to specific acreage on the north side of
the Santa Ana River and east of Imperial Highway, covering approximately 410
acres.
The three letters submitted have indicated the existing channeli-
zation of the Santa Aha River would accommodate a flood of a lO0-year fre-
quency, however, a flood of greater magnitude could result in a great deal
of damage in the Canyon area.
Mr. Roberts further advised that the Army Corps of Engineers have
indicated that their report covering the entire Canyon area will not be avail-
able until the Fall of 1971.
ORANGE COUNTY USE PERM-iT NO. 3121 - (DANKER PROPERTY): Regarding the Orange
County Use Permit above referred to (Danker property) Mr. Roberts reported
that the Orange County Planning Commission has continued the public hearing
on said Use Permit ~o permit the mobile home park to March 30, 1971; and that
the property is presently zoned R-2-4,000.
Mr. Glenn Meyer, Vice-President of American Mobile Home Company, ad-
vised that they have withdrawn their request for the County Use Permit and
will develop modular housing under multiple-housing (fourplex), instead of
mobile homes; plans are presently being checked by the County of Orange and
fees have been paid~
In answer to further Council. queries, Mr. Meyer stated the project
will not be built under the 235 Program, Rent Supplement Program, but will
be built under 221~D-3~ which is a cooperative ownership financing program
and will comprise approximately 42 acres~ with slightly less than 10 units
per acre.
71-123
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 23, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
EXTENSION OF CITY SERVICES - ANNEXED AREAS: Mr. Meyer referred to letter
dated February 17, 1971, received by the City Clerk's office this date, re-
questing the County R-2-4,000 Zoning be recognized and also asking for clari-
fication as to when water and sewer facilities will be extended to the pro-
perty so a planning date for construction might be made.
Mr. Geisler advised of the policy of the City, wherein City ser-
vices, particularly sewers, are not extended to any area not within the lim-
its of the City of Anaheim, that subject property must be annexed in order
to receive City services.
Mr. Meyer advised that they realized the property must be annexed
to the City, but wanted to know when they could expect water and sewers up
to the property in order to determine if they would be required to build
their own sewer and water facilities. He further reported that Mr. Danker
has approved the necessary easements to bring the sewer to this property.
Mayor Dutton advised that an answer could not be given at this
time, inasmuch as the property was not annexed to the City, and that the is-
sue before the City Council was General Plan Amendment No. 122, to determine
land use.
Mr. Bob Flores, of Kemmerer Engineering Company, reported on meet-
ing with the City Engineer prior to designing subject property, wherein they
were advised that when sewer and water were available the property would be
supplied, and that all that was needed was the necessary easements, which
have been granted by Mr. Danker, the owner of the property.
Mr. Robert Davis clarified the policy of the Council, regarding ex-
tension of utilities within the area designated by the Local Agency Formation
Commission as the City of Anaheim's zone of influence. He stated that the
City of Anaheim, in long-range planning intends to serve this area, however,
at the present time he doubted that the property in question could be physi-
cally annexed to the City of Anaheim to meet the annexation requirements
without some interim area also being annexed. Under the present policy, fa-
cilities are not extended until a specific request for annexation is received
and annexation is in process. Sewers are not extended until required fees
are paid.
The City Clerk submitted and read letters filed by H. Roger Howell,
of the Law Firm of Rutan & Tucker, involving the Yorba property, advising of
their desire to annex to the City of Anaheim and their willingness to cooper-
ate fully for sewer and water service and appropriate rights-of-way along
with the annexation.
Mr. Roberts reminded the City Council regarding the proposed mobile
home park development on the Danker property that when the recommendation to
the Orange County Planning Commission was formulated, concern was expressed
by the City Council that the proposed mobile home park did not incorporate
the necessary arterial highway system within the area. The City of Anaheim
has not had an opportunity to review the project now referred to by Mr. Meyer
and there is no assurance that a circulation system is being provided to meet
the needs of the area.
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 122: Mr. Don McDaniel again explained proposed
Amendment, Exhibits "~'~ "B"~ "C" and "D."
Discussion was held by the City Council and permitted developments
under the low-medium density designation were outlined by Mr. Roberts. He
advised that this designation included R-2-5,000, Single-Family subdivisions,
with 5,000-square foot lots, mobile home parks, or any type of multiple-family
development that could be developed under the standards of the existing R-2
Zone.
Mr. Geisler reminded the City Council that the issue before them
was an Amendment to the General Plan, which was not zoning at all, and that
under a General Plan, nothing other than that which would qualify under the
R-A zone could be built as the zoning would still be R-A.
71- 124
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 23, 1971, !:30 P.M.
He further advised that a General Plan is an indication of what
the areas may be zoned in the future by considering densities in a general
area and that before anything could be built the area would require precise
zoning.
RESOLUTION NO. 71R-72: At the conclusion of discussion that followed, Coun-
cilman Thom offered Resolution No. 71R-72 for adoption, approving General Plan
Amendment No. 122, Exhibit "C" which, in his opinion, was in accordance with
previous actions taken in the area and the most logical development.

CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - VARIANCE NO. 800: Submitted by Wonderbowl, Inc., re-
questing an amendment to City Planning Commission Resolution No. 173, Series
1957-1958, granting Variance No. 800, to establish a 48-lane Bowling Alley
with incidental uses on property zoned R-A, located at the northeast corner
of Katella Avenue and Walnut Street, (1177 West Katella Avenue), by deleting
Condition No. 1 of said Resolution, which prohibits vehicular access to and
from Walnut Street.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC70-221,
denied requested amendment.
Appeal from action taken by the City Planning Commission was filed
by Mr. Monte L. Widders, Attorney representing Brunswick Corporation. Public
hearing was scheduled January 26, 1971, and continued to this date at the re-
quest of Mr. Widders.
Mr. Roberts noted the location of subject property and the zoning
and uses in the immediate vicinity, noting the single-family residential sub-
division to the west, the undeveloped R-A property to the north and east, and
a combination of commercial and residential type uses to the south. He briefed
the history of Variance No. 800 and subsequent actions taken from 1957, when
the application for the Wonderbowl facility was originally filed.
The Mayor asked if the Applicant or his Agent wished to address the
Council.
Mr. Richard Reinjohn, Attorney representing Brunswick Corporation,
referred to Findings No. 2, 3 and 4, of City Planning Commission Resolution
No. PC70-221, denying requested Amendment, and asked that the City Council
consider the following:
1. Subject conditions were placed upon the property in 1957 and
since that time the City has growm considerably. In 1957 the Convention Cen-
ter did not exist, nor the motels and commercial zoning on Katella Avenue
that are now in existence.
2. Roads and improvements have changed, however, their basic prob-
lem, that of traffic, has not been solved.
Mr. Reinjohn called attention to the Traffic Engineer's favorable
report relative to their request and also reported that a Driveway Permit was
issued in February, 1969, by the Engineering Department, who were then unaware
of the restrictions because, he believed, the restrictions had not been recorded.
71- 125
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 23~ 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Andy Messina, Manager of Wonderbowl, submitted and rea~to
the Council a Petition purportedly containing 1,660 signatures of customers
favoring and requesting the access to Walnut Street be permitted.
A plot plan of the Wonderbowl property, indicating the parking
area and traffic pattern accon~nodating approximately 300 cars, was.shown
and explained. Mr. Messina noted the difficulty in exiting onto Katella
Avenue, due to the fact that their view is obstructed by automobiles and i
trucks parked in front of the facility and also by the stacking of cars
on KatellaAvenue, especially when there has been an event at the Stadium
or Convention Center.
In answer to a concern raised by residents in the area regarding
the safety of their children, Mr. Messina reported that their busiest time
was between 8:30 and 9:30 P.M., a time when children, as a rule, were not
outside playing.
Mr. Don Jensen, District Manager of Brunswick Corporation, reported
that the problem came to their attention in 1968 through the League officers,
and at each meeting, which are held twice a year, the problem of ingress and
egress has been brought up.
Mr. Jensen related his observance of the situation, especially at
peak periods, and advised that although the services of a security guard
has helped in directing the flow of traffic it had not reduced the existing
congestion.
Mr. Reinjohn submitted two pictures, one showing the egress to
Katella Avenue, and one showing where the wall was partially down when
the driveway construction was started and then stopped.
He further noted that the Traffic Engineer was of the opinion that
the best location for the driveway would be opposite Holgate Street. He ad-
vised that this location was not necessarily their choice, as they would
prefer to have the driveway further north, however, they had no objection
to the Holgate Street location.
Mr. Reinjohn reported that he traveled west on Holgate Street'and
noted all streets to the south, between Walnut and Ninth Streets, were cul-
de-sac streets and did not intersect with Katella Avenue. He doubted whe-
ther many people would travel through the residential area to Ninth Street
to get back to Katella Avenue and thought this route becoming a thoughfare
was extremely remote. He stated that one of their main concerns was people
who wanted to go east on Katella Avenue, who are now turning north on Walnut
Street, making a U-turn at Holgate Street,. and returning to Katella Avenue
where there is a signal and a left-hand turn to the east. This, in his
opinion, was a safety factor that should be considered.
In conclusion, Mr. Reinjohn noted that the property to the north
of subject property is zoned and will eventually have driveways onto Walnut
Street, and in the interest of safety access to Walnut Street from the Won-
derbowl property should be available now.
tion.
The Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the Council in oppo$i-
Mr. George Hedstrom, 1747 Heather Lane, advised that when they
built their homes there in 1955 the entire area was designated for single~
family homes; that there were then maps of the area indicating the streets
and subdivided lots.
Reference was made to the petition submitted to the City Planning
Commission containing 90 signatures. Mr. Hedstrom reported that although
there were only 90 signatures on the petition, every signature represented
a homeowner. He advised of the lack of sidewalks in the area and reported
that the children play in the streets. He felt a great majority of people
would use Holgate Street to Ninth Street to get back to Katella Avenue. He
called attention also to the peak morning period when women's leagues bowl.
71-126
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 23, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Hedstrom referred to the 15-foot landscape requirement along
Walnut Street and advised that it was originally planted with ivy and trees,
however, the ivy and some of the trees have died because of lack of care.
He stated that when the access restriction was placed upon the Wonderbowl
property it was the intention of the City Council to place this restriction
along the entire length of Walnut Street from Katella Avenue to north of the
Disneyland Hotel.
Regarding traffic, Mr. Hedstrom noted the increase in traffic
everywhere creating hazards at every driveway, both residential and busi-
ness. He called attention to Linbrook Bowl on Brookhurst Street, which ex-
periences the same problems when endeavoring to turn left from their property.
In conclusion, Mr. Hedstrom stated that Walnut Street was the di-
viding line. To the east is the entertainment zone, and to the west, people
have to live.
Mrs. Beverly Wells, 1215 Holgate Street, addressed the Council on
behalf of the residents in the neighborhood opposing any changes in Variance
No. 800 that would permit the Wonderbowl access to Walnut Street at Holgateo
In representing the residents, Mrs. Wells advised that out of 89 houses
along Holgate between Walnut and Ninth Streets, 86 are represented on the
petition of protest previously referred to. She stated the basis of their
objections is the increased use of Holgate that would disturb their peace
and endanger the lives of their children and, in addition, would set a pre-
cedent for the opening of the Disneyland Hotel property onto Walnut Street.
Mrs. Wells reported that the Wonderbowl parking lot was a congre-
gating place for teenagers, many of whom never patronize the bowling alley.
In addition, it appeared that the lot was being used for the parking of the
Grey Line busses for the Disneyland Hotel.
Mrs. Wells further reported that she had been advised by the City
Traffic Engineer regarding accidents at the Wonderbowl location, that there
was nothing on record that he considered to be a major problem, especially
for that size flow of traffic, and that getting in and out of the property
would be no more of a problem than at any other intersection.
Mr. Joe Wade, 1747 Walnut Street, addressed the Council in opposi-
tion, advising that, if the driveway was permitted at the north end of the
property it would be directly across from his and his neighbor's driveways.
He further advised that they must back out of their driveways and with a
driveway directly across the street it would add to the already-existing
hazards.
Mr. Wade agreed that cars park on Katella Avenue in front~of the
Wonderbowl property and suggested that the curb be painted red and the area
designated a "No Parking Zone" which would provide greater visibility on
Katella Avenue.
Also reported was, particularly in the summer months, it had been
noted that subject parking lot was used by campers, trailers, and motorhomes
as an overnight parking facility.
In conclusion, Mr. Wade was of the opinion that the decision to
allow access to Walnut Street was the type of decision that could only be
determined when the additional 28-1/2 acres is developed and that it would
be very hasty and ill--advis'ed to make a decision at this time based on the
information of one concern which, in his opinion, did not need a driveway.
Mr. Kit Carson felt the situation was a legal matter in that there
was a ruling made that there be no access onto Walnut Street. He noted there
have been no changes, it is the same bowling alley, and the residential area
is the same. In his opinion, there should be a significant change in the area
before this ruling is reconsidered.
Mayor Dutton, in reply, advised of some of the changes made in the
past 13 years, noting the construction of the Convention Center and the im-
provement of Walnut Street.
71-127
City Ha.l,.~, Anaheim, California- COUNCIL MINUTES- February 23, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Reinjohn, in rebuttal, stated they understood the position of
the residents, however, in their opinion, there have been major changes and
there is a need for access to Walnut Street. He briefly outlined some of
the changes which justified the request. He felt the concern for Holgate
Street was overemphasized, and agreed there would probably be additional
traffic but the amount would be negligible. He felt it was unnecessary
to wait for further changes, when change was necessary now.
It being determined sufficient evidence had been received, Mayor
Dutton declared the hearing closed.
Councilman Pebley stated that when Variance No. 800 was granted,
this restriction was placed on the property for the protection of the resi-
dents to the west. He felt that had these restrictions not been placed on
the property, the Wonderbowl would not have been built. He also felt that
the situation had not changed and that the Wonderbowl had no more problems
in entering and exiting their property than Linbrook Bowl and many other
businesses in the City.
Further discussion was held, and it was noted that the accident
rate at this location had not changed substantially in the last few years.
Mr. Geisler advised the City Council that, according to his mem-
ory, the restriction of access to Walnut Street applied only to the Wonder-
bowl property in the granting of Variance No. 800, and not to the Disney-
land property or the other property to the north.
At the conclusion of Council discussion, Councilman Pebley moved
that the request to delete Condition No. 1 of City Planning Commission Reso-
lution No. 173, Series 1957-1958, be denied. Councilman Stephenson seconded
the motion. To this Motion, Councilman Dutton voted "No." MOTION CARRIED.
Councilma~ Roth suggested the Traffic Engineer further investi-
gate the parking on Katella Avenue fronting the Wonderbowl to determine
if other provisions should be made.
RECESS: Councilman Pebley moved for a 5-minute Recess. Councilman Roth seconded
the motion. MOTION CARRIED. (3:15 P.M.).

Council being present. (3:25 P.M.).

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE - RECLASSIFICATION_.__NO. 60-61-107_~__CONDITIONALUSE PERMITS
NOS 35 AND 246: Western Skies Trailer Park, 2770 West Lincoln Avenue, Anaheim,
to show cause why said Reclassification and Conditional Use Permits should
not be revoked for failure to comply with conditions relative to offsite
improvements.
Mayor Dutton asked if the Owner of subject property was present
and wished to address the Council.
Edward D. Anderson, Owner, advised the City Council that he had
attempted to comply with the requirements to install curbs, gutters and side-
walks on his property, however, when applying for the necessary permit he had
been advised by the Engineering Department that a fire plug installed by the
City two or three years ago was too close to the driveway and that he must
move it before a permit will be issued.
Mr. Anderson stated that the manager of his facility and other area
residents had attempted to persuade the City installation crews to install
this fire plug in a different location at the time it was put in; however,
this had not been done. Since then, the fire plug has been hit by cars turn-
ing in the driveway. He advised that if the City Council deemed it his duty
to move the fire plug at this time, he would do So.
In reply to Councilman Stephenson, Mr. Anderson stated the exist-
ing driveway had been installed approximately eight years prior to the time
the fire plug was put in.
City Manager Keith Murdoch advised that it appears that the owner
of the property is willing to install the improvements, and since it also
appears obvious the City installed the fire hydrant, if it is necessary to
relocate it, it would be the City's obligation to do so.
On motion by Councilman Stephenson, seconded by Councilman Thom,
the owner of subject property was ordered to complete installation of the
r~quired o£f~Ite improvements within 90 days from this date. MOTION CARRIED.

ACCESS ROAD - TRACT NO. 5083 (WASATCH DRIVE): Request of Kyle Thomas was submit-
ted January 26, 1971, for an audience before the City Council on problems
created by closure of an access road into Wasatch Drive that served Tract
No. 5083. At that time the subject was referred to the City Engineer for
investigation.
On February 9, 1971, the City Engineer advised that he was prepared
to make a report. At that time the subject was deferred to this date to al-
low interested area residents to be in attendance.
City Engineer James Maddox noted the access road referred to is'
located east of Taylor/Lakeview Avenue between the Riverside Freeway and
the former Santa Ana Canyon Expressway. He advised that a month ago access
in or out of Tract No. 5083 could be attained either off Taylor/Lakeview
Avenue via the old, original Santa Ana Canyon Road into Wasatch Drive or via
the eastbould lane of the present Santa Aha Canyon Road. However, since
then the State Division of Highways completed construction on the freeway
and connecting ramps, closing off the old, original Santa Ama Canyon Road
and tearing it out, and had provided curb returns in and out of Wasatch
Drive via the westbound lane of the existing Santa Aha Canyon Road. ~
Mr. Maddox stated that in discussion with area residents, they had,
indicated a desire either to have the old, original Santa Aha Canyon Road
access road replaced, or some other solution that would not require driving
up the eastbound lane of the Santa Ana Canyon Road to Pinney Drive to make
a U-turn and come back the westbound lane to enter Wasatch Drive, an extra
distance of 1.35 miles.
Mr. Maddox informed the City Council that a query to the State Di-
vision of Highways about the possibility of either again providing the access
road off Taylor/Lakeview Avenue at a cost of approximately $24,000.00, or a
left-turn pocket off the eastbound lane of the Santa Ana Canyon Road across
the westbound lane and into Wasatch Drive at a cost of approximately $7,000.
had brought a reply strongly recommending against either method of giving
access to the tract; however, they had indicated they might consider a left-
turn pocket from the Santa Aha Canyon Road eastbound lane to enter the pro-
perty on the north side of the Santa Ana Canyon Road at a location about
midway between Wasatch Drive and Finney Drive, requiring a cross-over of the
S.A.V.I. Canal, which proposal was estimated to cost $100,000.00.
Mr. Maddox stated the two proposals submitted to the State Division
of Highways could create extremely dangerous traffic situations, especially
since a left-turn pocket off the eastbound lane of the Santa Ana Canyon Road
into Wasatch Drive would place it on a natural curve of the roadway, not only
blocking the view of traffic coming on the westbound lane, but making it ex-
tremely possible that motorists not familiar with the area would unknowingly
enter the pocket and get into the oncoming westbound traffic lane.
Mr. Maddox recommended the present available accesses via Pinney
Drive - either a U-turn off the eastbound lane of the Santa Ama Canyon Road
onto the westbound lane and then exiting at Wasatch Drive, or taking Pinney
Drive to Gerda Drive - were safest and best.
In reply to Council questioning, Mr. Maddox advised that the pre-
sent Santa Ana Canyon Road and the freeway and ramps are now under the juris-
diction of the State Division of Highways.
City Attorney Joseph Geisler recommended neither of the proposals
submitted by the City Engineer be considered since they could both prove
hazardous to traffic. Regarding the possible solution supplied by the State
Division of Highways, he advised there was a question as to whether the
City legally could expend $100,000.00 to solve a special traffic problem
for private individuals, not being a general traffic problem; that if such
an access were considered, a Special Improvements District probably should
be created wherein the cost would be borne by the persons who would bene-
fit, just as the developer would have borne the cost if the access had been
71-130

provided at the time of development. He added that in his opinion, the County
should have never permitted the tract to develop with only a temporary access
and the developer should have been required to provide a permanent access.
Councilman Roth felt it was unfair to require the residents of the
tract to pay for an access that should have been the responsibility of the
County or State to see was provided by the developer of the tract.
Mayor Dutton invited a representative of the area residents to ad-
dress the Council.
Kenneth Fenrich, 4805 Wasatch Drive, noted a newspaper article sup-
posedly quoting the City Engineer as stating that the residents of Tract No.
5083 not only did not know what solution they were requesting for their prob-
lem, but also had not checked into existing plans at the time they purchased
their homes. Mr. Fenrich advised that in 1965, when these homes were built,
the Freeway plans were not in existence. He referred to the present unsafe
condition for children walking along Wasatch Drive to go to school and stated
that the situation may be compounded if the State, as they understood they
planned to do, installed a storm fence on the northwest side of Wasatch Drive.
Mr. Fenrich offered a proposal that the old, original Santa Aha Canyon Road
be reinstalled as a one-way street, from Taylor/Lakeview Avenue to Wasatch
Drive, providing ingress to the area, and egress be obtained by the existing
entrance to the present westbound lane of Santa Ana~Canyon Road from Wasatch
Drive.
Mr. Maddox advised a one-way street would cost approximately $18,000.
or $20,000.00, plus approximately $10,000.00 to purchase the easement from the
State; however, the main problem would be getting the State to give the access
rights. He further advised that in discussing this suggestion with the State
Division of Highways they indicated they would not approve it as it is too
close to the on-ramp of the Freeway.
George Kiene, 4820 Wasatch Drive, presented copies of Orange County
Planning Commission and State Division of Highways correspondence dated 1963,
wherein the old, original Santa Aha Canyon Road was designated the access road
into Tract No. 5083, (Mr. Kiene asked that the City Clerk make reproductions
of the correspondence for the files and return his copies to him.) He added
that the status of "temporary access road" was not applied to that road until
after the homes had been sold. He advised that area residents have expressed
concern that requiring vehicles to travel the extra 1.3 miles could cause prob-
lems of ambulance delays and inadequate fire protection. He added that Inspec-
tor Morgan, of the Anaheim Fire Prevention Department, had informed him that
an extra 3 to 5 minutes delay in reaching any fire could mean the fire could
get out of control. Mr. Kiene further stated that. the existing Fire Station
(No. 8) for that area, is equipped with only one small pumper which, he be-
lieved, was inadequate to handle any major fire; the next closest fire station
is near Autonetics and about 5 to 10 minuts away, while it would take about
17 minutes for equipment to get to their area from downtown Anaheim.
With regard to Police protection, Mr. Kiene contended under the pre-
sent conditions any burglar could see a Police car approaching, long before
it got into the tract, and could vacate the property.
Mr. Kiene referenced discussions 'with John Grisinger, of the State
Division of Highways, !n which Mr. Grisinger stated the proposed one-way access
street would not meet requirements of the Code because of the limited traffic,
and thus would be considered a driveway; also, that there would have to be a
minimum distance between the corner and the road turnoff. He stated that he
had not observed spaces of more than 5-feet between a corner and entrances to
a service station, and also he did not feel the proposed access street would
cause any more problems in the future than it did in the past.
Fire Chief Stringer advised that, contrary to Mr. Kiene's statements,
the fire-fighting equipment at Station No. 8 is a 1,000-gallon pumper with a
1,700-foot hose and is the same equipment used at all Fire Stations in the City.
Chief Stringer presented the Fire Station Log on the recent fire in Tract No.
5083, which showed that it took 2 minutes to get to the fire, after the Fire
71-131

Department was alerted. He asserted the delay that caused concern to the resi-
dents was occasioned by the fact that the City of Orange Fire Department was
notified first, and then the Orange County Fire Department.. It was overhearing
the call to the Orange County Fire Department that alerted Station No. 8 to
the fire, and thus they were already preparing to answer the call when it fi-
nally came through to the proper station. He also advised that Engine No.
5, out of Station No. 5, reached the fire in 9 minutes; that the Batallion
Chief, out of 500 East Broadway, made a run up there and back in 15 minutes.
Chief Stringer also advised that the residents in that area have been in-
formed and supplied with stickers that they are to notify the Anaheim Fire
Department in case of fire.
M.T. Davis, owner of the first house on the left in the cul-de-sac
in subject area, advised he had never observed any traffic problem created
by the former access road off Taylor/Lakeview Avenue. He felt with the City's
support the State would listen to their problem.
City Manager Keith Murdoch suggested the various proposals again
be reviewed by the City and further consultations held with everybody con-
cerned, including the State Division of Highways, to see if any solution
could be arrived at.
THE TOWN TOUR COMPANY: Owner's Notification, regarding Route No. 6, involving
change of route, establishment of fares and schedules was submitted, together
with request that the signs provided by the City to the Anaheim Jitney Systems
be changed to show the name of The Town Tour "FunBus" Company, and further,
that the City consider installing benches at bus stops in the recreational
areas and along Harbor Boulevard and Lincoln Avenue.
Since the cessation of operations by Anaheim Jitney Systems, change
in Route No. 6 would reinstate and provide bus service to the downtown Anaheim
area, City Offices and Municipal Court.
It was further requested that there be a 90-day trial period to
analyze the feasibility of revised Route No. 6, and that an Objective Com-
mittee, representing the City Manager and Chamber of Commerce, be appointed
to make the analysis during the trial period to determine if the income meets
expenses and, in the event it does not, further requesting the City consider
subsidizing a portion of the costs for this service.
REVISED ROUTE NO. 6: On motion by Councilman Pebley, seconded by Councilman
Roth, change of Route No. 6 was approved as proposed, together with estab-
lisment of fares and schedules, as set forth in Owner's Notification to the
City Council, dated February 10, 1971. MOTION CARRIED.
BENCHES: Mr. Mike Valen, President of the Town Tour Company, reported there
were approximately 20 locations where the placement of benches would be a ser-
vice. He further reported that he did not intend to use the benches for ad-
vertising.
Mr. Murdoch advised that if Mr. Valen would furnish the list of sug-
gested locations the City Manager's office would contact Bench Ad Company, to
see if they would be interested in furnishing the benches.
OBJECTIVE COMMITTEE: No Council action was taken on the request to appoint
an Objective Committee. As to the possibility of subsidizing expenses of
Route No. 6, it was the consensus of the Council that this possibility was
extremely remote.
SIGNS: On condition that the signs replacing the Anaheim Jitney Systems signs
be furnished by the Town Tour Company and donated to the City of Anaheim, with
the understanding that said signs become the property of the City of Anaheim,
it was moved by Councilman Pebley, seconded by Councilman Dutton, that the
City replace the Anaheim Jitney Systems signs with the "FunBus" signs as re-
quested. MOTION CARRIED.

HUNTINGTON BEACH - FREEWAY ROUTE 39: Assistant Director of Development Services
Ronald Thompson, advised the Council that the State Division of Highways is
holding a public hearing on the proposed Route 39 Freeway at 8:00 P.M., on
March 31, 1971, in Buena Park, and asked if, in view of this, the City Council
would like to change their scheduled hearing on this on the evening of March
30, 1971.
City Manager Keith Murdoch stated that if the Council did not wish
to change the date of their meeting and wanted to get some information to the
State Division of Highways meeting the following night, it would be possible
for somebody to make a verbal report at that meeting.
By general Council consent, the date of March 30, 1971, 7:30 P.M.,
for hearing on Route 39 remained unchanged.
It was reported that for the public hearings held by the City Plan-
ning Commission approximately 1,800 notices were mailed to those within the
City of Anaheim affected by proposed Route No. 39.
Inasmuch as the public hearing before the City Council is legally
advertised in the Anaheim Bulletin, it was agreed and determined by the City
Council that the normal courtesy of mailing be eliminated in this instance.

PADS BUDGET: The City Mana§er reported that the Board of Directors of PADS had
requested member cities to submit in writing their intention to support the
PADS Budget for fiscal year 1971-72.
Anaheim's share, based on a formula of $500.00, plus 5¢ per capita,
would be $9,000.00, with a possible additional request of $900.00.
Mr. Murdoch advised that $9,000.00 has been included in the Data
Processing Budget proposed for fiscal year 1971-72.
On motion by Councilman Thom, seconded by Councilman Stephenson,
a letter was authorized to be forwarded to PADS stating that $9,000.00 has
been allocated in our tentative 1971-72 Budget for membership in PADS; how-
ever, at this time this Budget has not been finalized nor accepted. MOTION

SPECIAL FUND - CULTURAL ARTS CENTER: The City Manager reported a request from
the Finance Committee of the Cultural Arts Center, proposed for the Horace
Mann School, that a special fund be set up so contributions may be accepted
on the basis that they will be returned if contributions are insufficient
and the Cultural Arts Center does not become an actuality.
In reply to Councilman Pebley, City Attorney Joseph Geisler ad-
vised that any contributions to the City is tax deductible as long as the
funds are used for municipal purposes; however, if these contributions are
made on a contingency basis, it is not tax deductible until the contingency
is met. Also, if the City accepts gifts for the proposed Horace Mann Cul-
tural Arts Center on a contingency basis, it is committing itself to refur-
bish the building for that purpose, and the City Council already has said
they will not do this. Mr. Geisler recommended that if the Cultural Arts
Financial Committee wishes to accept contingent gifts, they accept them
as a con~ittee and not turn them over to the City until there no longer is
a contingency. He further recommended no gifts be accepted on a contingency
basis that are under $500.00.
