MEMBERS OF THE PRESS
Mayor Dutton called the meeting to order.
RECREATION BUDGET: Mr. Murdoch explained the purpose of the joint meeting was to
review the proposed programs and budget requests for Fiscal Year 1971-72, as
set forth in the Recreation Division's Preliminary Budget Summary, dated
March 15, 1971, and the Appendage, dated April 6, 1971, copies of which were
distributed to those present.
He advised ~was anticipated revenues will provide a 3.82 percent
increase available for City operating purposes for Fiscal Year 1971-72; how-
ever, the first six months of Fiscal Year 1970-71 showed an increase in op-
erating expenditures of 2.6 percent, indicating at least a 5% increase for
the year although there appears to be a slowing of the inflationary trend
at this time.
Mr. Murdoch further advised that 3.82 percent increase for a Divi-
sion with a high percentage of personnel costs, such as Park and Recreation
Division, does not allow any increase in programs.
He stated that several years ago a formula was worked out for joint
participation in the recreation program between the City of Anaheim and the
various school districts, based on assessed valuations, and that formula de-
termines the maximum amount that theoretically will be available for the
budget, although preliminary budgets purposely are set below that maximum,
if possible.
Mr. Murdoch advised that the agreement between the various parti-
cipating agencies is such that if any member feels they should not continue
to participate on the basis of the formula set up they are to notify the other
agencies by January 1 so that the formula can be revised if necessary; how-
ever, no such notification was received this year, and now it appears the
City of Anaheim will be hard pressed to meet its commitment Mince the asses-
sed ~aluations in this part of Orange County increased an average of 16 per-
cent this year - which is well above the anticipated 3.82 percent increase
in available funds for operating divisions in Anaheim - and Anaheim's pre-
liminary budget was set up on the basis of last year's assessed valuation.
Mr. Murdoch stated that, in addition to the financial problems a pressing
community need for such things as participation in teen-age programs, etc.,
should be discussed this date. Also to be considered is the fact that after
anticipating the available revenue for the coming year, and subtracting the
fixed obligations for which the City is responsible, the amount of money
available for capital expenditures is slightly over $1,000,000.00, as com-
pared to the average expenditure above and beyond fixed charges of somewhere
between $2,000,000.00 and $3,000,000.00.
Mr. Murdoch advised that departmental budgets are being set up on
the basis of the 3.82 percent increase; however, some departments probably
The Palms Restaurant, 1110 East Orangethorpe Avenue, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL
MINUTES - April 6~ 1971~ 11:00 A.M.
would not be able to stay within that percent of increase, such as the Fire
Department, where the expense is practically all labor; in the Police De-
partment, where the crime rate is growing.
Mr. Pedersen stated his calculations showed the difference be-
tween the City of Anaheim's 1970-71 Budget and the Preliminary 1971-72
Budget was approximately $44,000.00, and s.btracting $17,000.00 additiona]
revenue available as a result of the 3.82 percent increase would mean a
total of $27,000.00 that must either be found to meet the Preliminary Bud-
get, or taken off the Preliminary Budget.
Mr. Murdocb advised consideration also should be given to the
extra items listed in order of priority, although he felt all of the items
were very desirable.
Councilman Pebley questioned the necessity for many of the adult
programs and stated he felt perhaps some of those items should be curtailed,
rather than pro%rams for children being curtailed, since a comparitively
small number of adult citizens actually participate in these programs.
Mr~ Murdoch advised that, except for administrative overhead, al-
most all adult activities are self-sustaining, and the fees charged parti-
cipants for these orograms are included in the income columns of the Pre-
liminarv Budget.
Lloyd Trapp stated that some adult programs, such as the Greek
~eatre, Pop~ Chorale and Community Band Program also provide a cormunity
service.
Councilman Dutton questioned employment of three Tennis Coordin-
ators and a part-time woman to encourage participation in programs when the
need ig to curtail activities.
Mr. Collier advised the ad hoc committee had recommended a woman
be employed part-time to encourage greater participation by young girls and
women, since it was felt the greatest emphasis thus far has been on activi-
ties for boys; and also that Tennis Coordinators be employed to increase
interest in tennis.
In reply to Councilman Stephenson, Mr. Collier advised that the
Cultural and Special Programs feature was designed to assist some activi-
ties to become more self-sustaining, such as in the case of the Anaheim
Art Association, where assistance was given for about five years. He added
that temporary aid now is being given to the Ana-Modjeska Players and it
is hoped that eventually, when they have become self-sustaining, they will
take over a program of providing a family theatre for children.
In reply to Councilman Thom, Mr. Collier stated that thus far no
employees have been terminated from the Parks and Recreation Division, as
a result of the recent announcement of layoffs of City Employees.
Mr. Murdoch advised that the only departments where layoffs have
occurred thus far are those where the 1971-72 Budgets have been completely
reviewed, and this has occurred in only two departments, as of this time.
He further advised that where a vacancy occurs, that position is reviewed
to determine if it is possible to combine that job with some others, and
thus eliminate the necessity to hire another person; also, some positions
bu~gete~ in 1~?0-71 ~ave ~een hel~ up, p~n~ing a determination a~ to whe-
ther they are absolutely necessary, and many of these will be removed at
the time Budgets are reviewed this year.
In reply to Councilman Pebley, Mr. Conrad stated that the Teen
Dances at Fremont School usually are held once a month and are self-sus-
taining, except that the leadership is provided jointly by the City and
the school.

MINUTES - April 6~ 1971~ 11:00 A.M.
Following discussion on the formula set up for participation in the
Recreation Program, Mr. Collier advised approximately two-thirds of the program
is the responsibility of the City, and one-third that of the school district;
however, he advised, Anaheim is the only city in Orange County, and one of a
very few in the State that receives any funds from school districts for joint
programs. He added that, in addition to funds, the schools provide facilities
for these activities at no charge to the City, and the City, in turn, provides
t¼e use of some facilities to the schools at no charge.
Replying to Councilman Stephenson, Mr. Murdoch advised that the Pre-
liminary Budget does include the wage increases granted employees to become ef-
fective in October, 1971.
Referring to previous discussion, regarding spending funds to encour-
age participation in recreational activities, Mr. Peeler stated he believed this
was very desirable as a means of helping to control delinquency among juveniles.
Mr. Collier advised that in 1959 a study of the five-days a week, after
school program at elementary schools resulted in the decision that the program
could not continue except on a Saturday-only basis, because of lack of parti-
cipation; however, the ad hoc committee now has recommended a program of two
nights a week, from 3:30 to 5:00 P.M., plus some Saturday activities for ele-
mentary school children.
Replying to Councilman Dutton, Mr. Collier stated that most vandalism
occurs after school hours and in the evening after dark.
Councilman Thom left the meeting. (12:00 noon)~
Mr. Collier further advised that vandalism in Anaheim for the past
]~ months incurred damages of approximately $55,000.00, although statistics show
only a very small percentage of this damage is caused by children. He also sta-
t~d that discussions have been held with the Anaheim School District on this sub-
j,~ct and ways of combating it, and a report will be made to the City Council in
the near future.
Mr. Bonnell took exception to the inference in the term "status quo"
in the Preliminary Budget, on the basis that participation in evening activi-
ties at the high school level has increased about 50% over the past year to
where students are now waiting in line for these activities, and thus he be-
lieved this program should be expanded.
He also stated that, since the City of Anaheim did not notify the
school districts by January 1 that it could not participate in this joint pro-
gram, according to the formula set up it now is obligated for its share. He
added that, in his opinion, the Budget, even now, is not large enough to provide
enough activities to handle the increased population of children.
Mr. Murdoch advised that his interpretation of the joint agreement is
that a participant must notify the other members by January 1 if a change in
the formula is desired; however, there is no obligation on the part of any par-
ticipating agency to meet the maximum amount allowable under the formula, and
the City thus would be obliged only to meet its proportionate share of whatever
Budget finally is agreed upon.
Mr. Murdoch further stated that, "status quo" meant maintaining the
status quo in the number of employees and services to provide a program as it
was carried on last year, not with the same population nor the same attendance
situation, thus, the "status quo" in this case probably would mean a reduced
program because of the increased number of people the program would be serving.
Mr. Bonnell stated that the school districts also must trim their
budget requests and personnel numbers; however, he was confident every one of
the participating school districts was ready to contribute their proportionate
share, according to the formula now in effect. He asked that the program be
maintained on the basis of the Preliminary Budget, as now set up, including all
of the priorities listed.

MINUTES - April 6~ 1971~ 11:00 A,M.
Referring to the percentage of increased revenues anticipated, Mr.
Bonnell advised he believed the Anaheim Union High School District is project-
ing a 5% increase; Dr. Duren advised they are projecting a 4% increase°
Mr. Murdoch asked if the City Council felt the priorities as listed
were sufficiently important to include them in the Budget, and advised that
the anticipated assessed valuation for the City of Anaheim for this year is
approximately $540,000,000.00.
Mr. Pedersen suggested increased efficiency could provide the extra
funds needed, and recommended as an example, that every two residents be re-
quested to place their trash together in one place so that the pick-up truck
would need to make only half as many stops, thus reducing the time needed to
pick it up and the cost to the City.

PUBLIC HEARING - RECLASSIFICATION NO. 70-71-33: Initiated by the Anaheim City
Council proposing a change of zone from the County of Orange Al, to City of
AnaheimR-A, upon annexation to the City of Anaheim. Property is located
east of the Newport Freeway and south of Santa Aha Canyon, and extends eas-
terly to Weir Canyon.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 6~ 1971, 1:30 P.M
1. That these reclassification proceedings are granted subject to

2. That ordinances reclassifying the property shall be adopted as
each parcel is ready to comply with conditions pertaining to such parcel, pro-
vided, however, that the word "parcel" shall mean presently existing parcels

Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts noted the location of subject pro-
perty and suggested General Plan Amendment No. 123 also might be considered at
this time since subject property is a part of the area covered by this General
Plan Amendment.
PUBLIC HEARING - GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO. 123: Initiated by the' Anaheim City
Council proposing increases in densities in an area consisting of approxi-
mately 4,200 acres located generally south of Santa Ana Canyon Road, east of
the Newport Freeway, and extending easterly beyond Mohler Drive to Weir Can-
yon and having a southerly boundary approximately along the Santa Aha Mountains
Ridgeline.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC71-34,
recommended approval of General Plan Amendment No. 123, in accordance with
exhibits presented by the land developers.
Associate Planner Don McDaniel explained that the Planned Community
Development Plans for 4,200-acres of Nohl Ranch land in the Santa Aha Canyon,
recently purchased by the Robert H. Grant Corporation (Anaheim Hills) neces-
sitated initiation of General Plan Amendment No. 123. He noted that the Gen-
eral Plan of the City of Anaheim recognized that the hillside topography of
the Santa Ana Canyon dictated the pattern of development in the area would
be somewhat different than that in the flatlands and was designed to encourage
development and maintenance of a residential environment that would preserve
the amenities of hillside living. He added that the City Planning Commission
had felt the Anaheim Hills proposal basically was in conformance with the ob-
jectives of the General Plan, except in densities; that where the existing
General Plan anticipated approximately 11,500 units, or an approximate den-
sity of 2.7 units per gross acre,and a population of 35,600 for the 4,200
acres of land covered by the Anaheim Hills plan, their plan proposed 15,000
units, or a density of 3.5 units per gross acre, and a population of 47,120.
He added that the Anaheim Hills plans also include provisions for schools,
parks, etc., commensurate with the proposed density and population.
Mr. McDaniel also stated that the 4,200 acres for the proposed Ana-
heim Hills included some property not within the Anaheim zone of influence,
since that property south of the ridgeline of the Santa Aha Mountains was
under the zone of influence of the City of Orange; that the proposed General
Plan Amendments would cover only that portion north of the ridgeline and was
not intended to preclude any existing agreements between the two cities nor
prezone any of that area.
Mayor Dutton asked if anyone wished to address the City Council.
Bill Stark, Robert H. Grant Corporation, 1665 South Brookhurst
Street, Anaheim, stated they were satisfied with the City Planning Commission
recommendations.
Mayor Dutton asked if anyone else wished to address the Council;
there being no response, declared the hearing on Reclassification No. 70-71-38
and General Plan Amendment No, 123 closed.
RESOLUTION NO. 71R-126: Councilman Stephenson offered Resolution No. 71R-126

Review of action taken by the City Planning Commission was requested
by Councilman Thom at the March 2, 1971 City Council meeting, and public hear-
ing scheduled this date.
The City Clerk submitted correspondence dated February 25, 1971,
from Reverend E.W. Matthias,of Zion Lutheran Church,in opposition to subject
request.
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts reviewed the recommendations of
the City Planning Commission.
Mayor Dutton asked if the Applicant or her Agent was present and
wished to address the City Council.
Jim Butson, Agent, advised he was satisfied with the recommendations
of the City Planning Commission.
Mayor Dutton asked if anyone wished to address the City Council in
opposition.
Reverend Elmer Matthias, 408 West Alberta Street, Pastor of Zion
Lutheran Church, advised they had not appeared at the City Planning Commis-
sion public hearing because they had believed the application would be denied,
since there already is a carwash on the adjoining property to the north, and
it was felt two such operations could not survive economically. He noted the
Alpha Beta shopping center to the east of subject property presently has se-
veral empty store buildings. Reverend Matthias advised that Zion Lutheran
Church presently has a Day School located at 205 North East Street and is
in the process of building a church at 222 North East Street, which is about
200 feet north of the already-existing carwash.
In reply to Councilman Roth, Reverend Matthias stated the road im-
mediatly north of the existing carwash, which leads to the shopping center,
is a private street.
Bill Heinecke, 633 North Carleton Avenue, President of Zion Lutheran
Church Congregation, advised the over $1,000,000.00 church presently under
construction at 222 North East Street, is on an 8-1/2-acre parcel of land,
and the Day School on the west side of East Street is situated on 2-1/2-acres
of land. Mr. Heinecke noted that of the four service stations originally
located at the intersection of East Street and Lincoln Avenue, only one re-
mains in business - one having been demolished, one converted to another
business, and one standing idle, and this, plus the fact that eight store
buildings within the Alpha Beta shopping Center are empty indicates a lack
of interest for such activities in the area. He also stated that he believed
subject operation would add to the already-existing traffic hazard for chil-
dren attending Lincoln Elementary School and the Church elementary school.
Councilman Roth advised that the closed service station facility
on the southwest corner of East Street and Lincoln Avenue recently was sold
and indications are that it will be converted into a liquor store. He added
that under normal conditions the property is an ideal location for a service
station; however, it appeared present economic conditions make it possible
for only one service station to survive in the area; however, the position
of the City Council must be that of "land use" and not "economics."

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 6, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Heinecke advised his congregation was concerned that granting
subject application for a combined service station and carwash could again
result in a situation where the operation would fail and the facilities would
be standing idle.
In reply to Councilman Stephenson's query as to whether the church
objected to the expected noise from subject proposed operation, Mr. Heinecke
advised this was not a desirable situation; however, their main concern was
the safety problem, and he cited an accident to an elementary school student
six months previously.
James Hodges, Secretary of Herco Properties, Inc., operators of
the existing carwash abutting subject property, stated they had not attended
the City Planning Commission hearing on subject application because they did
not own the land on which their operation was situated, and thus were not
notified of the hearing. He further stated that because the previous opera-
tor had gone out of business his company had recently been obliged to take
over the actual operation of the existing carwash and had refurbished the
facility and they opposed another carwash next to their operation.
Harry Sham, owner of the property on which the existing carwash is
situated, advised that he had been required to have 100-feet by 150-feet of
property for the small, existing carwash, and when he considered construct-
ing additional facilities on this property he was advised that in order to
further develop his property he would be required to dedicate a 13-foot strip
of land on East Street for street improvements. He contended that if sub-
ject property was required to make such a dedication it would reduce the
size of the land to about 125-feet by 137-feet, and the proposed operation
on this small lot would cause confusion on that corner.
The City Council reviewed the plans for subject application.
Murray Wiseberg, owner of a carwash at 558 South Anaheim Boulevard,
stated he believed the proposed facility was a drive-through carwash with no
personnel to vacuum or dry cars, and where either no charge or a minimum
charge is made for a wash, coincidental with the purchase of gasoline. He
added that if this is not a drive-through operation, there already are too
many full-operation carwashes in Anaheim and another should not be approved.
Mr. Wiseberg advised the oil companies are financing these drive-through car-
washes and predicted there would be many applications for similar operations
in conjunction with service stations.
In reply to Council questioning, Mr. Wiseberg advised his carwash
facility was situated on a lot approximately 150-feet by 158-feet, and he
felt it was too small for such an operation. He also stated that a carwash
organization estimated a population of 50,000 was necessary for successful
operation of each full-scale carwash employing 7 or 8 persons weekdays, and
that the investment for such a facility would run from $150,000.00 to
$300,000.00, not including land.
Mayor Dutton invited the Applicant to present a rebuttal.
Mr. Butson advised that the Zion Lutheran Church is located be-
tween 100 feet and 200 feet from the proposed carwash, and a testing firm
had verified that the noise from their operation would not be more than
would be made by a truck going down the street.
In reply to CounCil questioning, Mr. Butson advised that the pro-
posed carwash would be a drive-through operatl~m where the customer would
vacuum his own car, if it was desired, and then sit in his car on the way
through the wash and clean the inside windows with a wet towel provided by
an attendant; the cars drive by a blower at the exit of the operation where
the exteriors are wiped. Re added that the facility would require two atten-
dants, Monday through Thursday, and four or five on a weekend. Charge for
such a carwash would be $1.25, if no gasoline was purchased; it is free with
the purchase of any amount of gasoline.
Anaheim, California- COUNCIL MINUTES- April 6. 1971, 1:30 P.M
Mr. Butson further advised he is employed by the Hanna Carwash Sys-
tem? an equipment firm, that thus far has supplied equipment for five existing
c~rwashes at an investment of $150,000.00 to $160,000.00 each; that the proposed
~acility probably would be an Arco Station, and the company building and operat-
ing the station would be Gay Nineties, Inc. He added that one of these drive-
~rough carwashes presently is situated on a lot 90-feet by 60-feet, and another
c~ 75-feet by 170-feet.
Replying to Mr. Sham, Mr. Butson advised it takes about 1-1/2 minutes
through ~he carwash operation and that the service station would be equip-
7our dua] gas pumps.
It was determined sufficient evidence had been presented, and Mayor
i':~ ~ :~ declared the hearing closed.
Councilman Rotb stated he believed subject property definitely is a
,-~,Tcial corner, well suited for a service station and operation of this type,
~ i-.-. , f ? not feel the iact of too many carwashes already in existence in Ana-
bei~ ~f~oui~-t i? a consideration. He added that the abandoned service station
'zc~*~'r75' 7,mated tl,ere was an eyesore and the location would be improved with
a ne~, Yusiness in operation. The competition also would force the adjoining
,~'~ !~-yo~rsel~-cnrwash operation to keep its facilities cleaned up and in good
condition.
:iSOLUTION: Councilman Roth offered a Resolution granting subject application,
~-.u!-!~c~ to the City Planning Commission recommendations.
Councilman Thom stated he believed tNe noise factor would be detri-
mental and also the increased traffic would create a greater safety hazard
f~* the school children in the area.
Councilman Stephenson expressed the belief the noise from the blower
would be excessive and disturb the church school; also the lot size was too
~mall for such an operation.
Councilman Dutton stated he believed the proposed operation would
both the neighbors and the City, and therefore, he was opposed to it.

Also submitted was an excerpt from the Minutes of the City Planning
Commission meeting held April 5, 1971, reco~ending the Orange County Zoning
Administrator be urged to consider requiring that noise tests be conducted to

established at the property lines of subject property; and that a time limi-
tation of three years be established, subject to review for consideration of

71-208
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUI~CIL MINUTES - April 6, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts noted the location of subject
property, which is a narrow, deep parcel one-half mile wide and two-miles
long, consisting of about 632 acres, and reviewed the evidence submitted to
the City Planning Commission. He added that subject request would be con-
sidered by the Orange County Zoning Administrator, rather than the Orange
County Planning Commission, in this case.
Ron Parks, 4913 East Holbrook, stated he had attended the Yorba
Linda City Council meeting the night before where a representative of Anaheim
Union Water Company had advised the noise level from the proposed operation
would be 60 or 65 decibels, and it was desired that the proposed recreation
park operate on an 8:00 A.M. to 7:00 P.M. basis for a period of three to five
years.
Following discussion by the City Council, Councilman Thom moved
that the recommendation of the City Planning Commission be sustained and

Report of the Development Services Department, Zoning Division
was submitted stating that if subject operation is a restaurant with beer
and wine, it would conform to the conditions of Conditional Use Permit No.
617, granted by the City Planning Con~nission September 22, 1964; however,
if it is a bar without food, a night club or a dance hall, it would appear
it would not be a permitted use unless approved under a variance applica-
tion. The report further stated a dinner dancing place permit was granted
the Inin Corporation for this location on December 1, 1970, and a license
transfer fromInin Corporation to William W. Mitchell now is pending, with
a 30-day protest period March 10 to April 10, 1971.
Councilman Dutton reported that he personally investigated the
Electric Circus from 11:15 P.M. to 12:15 A.M., on April 2, 1971, and found
nothing objectionable, and although there were 20 to 25 persons waiting to
get in because the allowable maximum of 220 patrons inside the building had
been reached, everyone seemed well behaved.
Councilman Dutton further stated that he had observed the manager
of The Purple Lion supposedly attempting to assure that the Electric Circus
security guard would hold 30 parking spaces available for The Purple Lion
customers.
Mayor Dutton invited the Applicant's Agent to address the Council°
Odra L. Chandler, 608 South Harbor Boulevard, Attorney for the
Applicant, requested the Council change the application of Electric Circus
from a Public Dance Hall permit to a Dinner Dancing Place permit, since
the original intent of the Applicant was to secure the same type of permit
that had been granted the former establishment, the Inn Crowd.
City Attorney Joseph Geisler advised he could see no objection
to changing the designation of the permit applied for, since, although there
may be some minor points that needed clarification, basically the same in-
formation was required for both permits.
In reply to Councilman Dutton's query as to whether the Off Broad-
way West operation in the Grand Hotel charged admission, Mr. Geisler advised
he was unaware of it, but if so, it was in violation of the law since there
was a dinner dancing place permit and they would have to apply for a public
dance hall permit to charge admission.
Councilman Pebley suggested the Grand Hotel and the Charter House
be advised they must apply for a public dance hall permit to remain in opera-
tion if they are, in fact, charging admission.
Mr. Geisler advised that the Anaheim Mmnicipal Code allows a pub-
lic dance hall only in a C-3 Zone, and made no mention of it being permis-
sible as a conditional use permit.

City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 6, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Chandler stated, in his opinion, Section 4.16.040 of the Ana-
heim Municipal Code was ambiguous, and it probably was under this section
that businesses were operating in the Disneyland area.
He presented a copy of the menu for Electric Circus, as evidence
that the business now is operating as a dinner dancing place.
Mr. Geisler stated that an establishment holding a dinner dancing
place permit may hold a public dance in another room of that building, if
they have a regular restaurant on the premises, and it is this section of
the Code under which such places as the Disneyland Hotel hold a public dance
in one of their banquet rooms.
Mr. Chandler advised the Applicant has no intention of operating a
public dance hall at subject location, and rather than charge admission, as
had previously been done, they would either impose a minimum charge or a cover
charge.
In reply to Councilman Stephenson, Police Lieutenant Harold Fair
advised that subject establishment met the requirements of a dinner dancing
place.
Mr. Chandler advised that in effort to correct the problems cited
by Chief of Police Michel in his earlier report on the Electric Circus, buf-
fers have been built into the premises so that there is not a great deal of
noise at perimeters; two security guards are on duty Wednesday through Satur-
day, and there are security personnel inside the building to assist the out-
side guards, if necessary; they are attempting to keep people moving who are
loitering outside, and hope to be allowed to have a minimum number of persons
waiting at the entrance to get in; also, they are working with Mr. Young of
The Purple Lion, in an effort to solve the parking problems.
With reference to parking spaces, Mr. Chandler stated he understood
that 16 to 20 parking spaces would be required for the 2,050-square feet of
property of The Purple Lion, and 40 spaces would be required for the 5,000-
square feet occupied by Electric Circus. He added that in previously arriving
at his figure of 136 parking spaces provided in the parking lot he had includ-
ed the 31 parking spaces within the fenced area, since he understood this fence
was being removed. However, since the business of the only other occupied
building in this complex was closed before either of the two restaurants be-
came busy, there should be ample parking available. Also, the Applicant has
received a letter stating approximately two additional acres of unpaved pro-
perty at that location could be used for parking, if desired.
Mr. Chandler further advised that a door count will be kept and an
effort made to maintain as near as possible the 220 maximum patrons allowed
inside the building at one time.
With respect to complaints from persons in the area, Mr. Chandler
contended these must be from comercial enterprises, since there is only one
house nearby on Knott Avenue, and very few residences on Ball Road, and he
anticipated all of this property eventually would be cormnercial.
Councilman Dutton asked what the relationship is between Electric
Circus and Inn Crowd.
Mr. Chandler advised the Inn Crowd was owned by Inin Corporation;
the latter part of 1970 Inin Corporation changed the name of the activity at
subject location to the Electric Circus.
He added that although the dinner dancing pla ge permit issued in
December, 1970, was to the Inn Crowd, the actual permit holder is IninCorpora-
tion, and thus if all the stock of Inin Corporation is purchased by the Appli-
cant, this then would not constitute a transfer of permits.
In reply to Councilman Pebley, Mr. Geisler advised that, in his
opinion, a cover charge cannot be imposed with a dinner dancing place permit;
however, it was permissible to have a minimum charge.
71-215
~it¥ Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 6, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Chandler stated the Applicant would abide by Mr. Geisler's
opinion to assure they were operating legally.
Councilman Thom asked if changing the permit application from
public dance hall to dinner dancing place would alter the report previously
submitted by the Police Department.
Chief of Police David Michel advised he believed the Applicant
has been trying to cooperate in correcting the deficiencies reported ear-
lier; however, a check this date with an area resident who previously had
complained about the noise, revealed the noise problem still is present,
and also that at closing time cars accelerated and squealed tires leaving
the premises at a high rate of speed.
He added it was the belief of the Police Department that subject
location is not a proper place for such an activity because of the private
citizens living adjacent to the property to whom this activity is a real
problem and becoming worse because of the length of time it is being allowed
to continue in operation.
Chief Michel, therefore, recommended that unless the type of en-
tertainment offered is changed and a different type of patron attracted,
no dinner dancing place permit be granted in this case.
Mr. Chandler stated, he had walked outside the premises the night
before and had not heard noise from the Electric Circus down at the nearby
service station. He referred to a recent case in the Second Appellate Divi-
sion, Sunset Amusement Company versus the Board of Police Cormnissioners of
Los Angeles, regarding denial to renew a permit for Sunset Amusement Company
and Roller Bowl Amusements, to conduct a roller skating rink. A petition
to the Superior Court for a writ of mandate was denied, and the Appellants
took an appeal. The Court pointed out to the respondent Board that one rea-
son for denial of the renewal permit held the Appellants responsible for
peace-disturbing events outside their premises; the Appellate Court held
the failure of Police to control activity outside a business establishment
cannot be used as an excuse to deny a license to conduct a lawful business
merely because adjacent residents objected to activities of its patrons
which in no way were encouraged or condoned by the management.
Mr. Chandler stated he could not understand the opposition to this
application since the Applicant is attempting to conform to the requirements
of the Police Department, and the only concern of the owner of The Purple
Lion is that his parking be protected. He added that the Police Chief has
indicated that the activity is not a proper land use; however, the City
Council had granted the land use.
Councilman Roth stated he could see how the type of person this
activity attracted could cause Police problem~. He noted that at the time
he visited the Electric Circus the music vibrated excessively and he felt
it was "pretty wild" in the establishment, and thus it was his opinion this
activity should be situated in an area much farther out than the present
shopping center location.
Councilman Dutton stated he believed if the activity does not ad-
versely affect the neighborhood it should be allowed to remain.
Councilman Thom stated he believed it did adversely affect the
neighborhood.
The Council invited the owner of The Purple Lion to address the
Council.
A1 Young stated the biggest problem caused by Electric Circus is
it attracts so many "kids," there is a constant stream of cars in and out
of the parking lot, making it difficult to find a parking space.
MOTION: Councilman Thom offered a motion to deny both the public dance
hall permit and the dinner dancing place permit for subject application, as
71-216
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 6~ 1971, 1:30 P.M.
recommended by the Chief of Police. Councilman Stephenson seconded the motion.
Councilman Dutton stated he would prefer to first allow the Applicant
an opportunity to clear up those elements of concern of people in the neighbor-
hood and of the Police Department.
To the foregoing Motion, Councilman Dutton voted "No." MOTION CARRIED°
SCHWEITZER PARK PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE: Mr. Murdoch advised that the Schweitzer Park Pe-
destrian Bridge connecting the residential property on the north side of the
Flood Control Channel with Schweitzer School and future Schweitzer Park now
is completed, and the Parks and Recreation Division has asked if the City Coun-
cil would like a ribbon-cutting ceremony at which Schweitzer School children
also would participate.
The Council agreed a ribbon-cutting ceremony would be appropriate at
11:00 A.M., Tuesday, April 13, 1971.
RESIGNATION - PARKS AND RECREATION CO~MISSION: On motion by Councilman Pebley, se-
conded by Councilman Dutton, resignation of Dan L. Rowland from the Parks and
Recreation Commission, representing the City Planning Commission, was accepted
and a letter of appreciation for his services to the City of Anaheim was au-
thorized. MOTION CARRIED.
ECKBO, DEAN, AUSTIN & WILLIAMS REPORT - LAFCO: Mr. Murdoch advised that on April
14, 1971, LAFCO will consider a proposed annexation by the City of Anaheim of
some property in the Santa Ana Canyon, and it is anticipated the Anaheim rep-
resentative will be queried regarding the recent Eckbo, Dean, Austin and Wil-
liams Report and recormnendations regarding development of the Santa Ana Canyon,
("The Santa Aha River-Santiago Creek Green Belt Plan") and thus direction is
requested from the City Council on the following statements in the report:
Councilman Stephenson left the Council Chambers. (4:00 P.M.).
Page 2 - The Concept: "Santa Ana River-Santiago Creek Corridor as linear gree-
belt, linking park nodes and significant open spaces, with channel and riding-
hiking-bike trails as spine."
The Council agreed this has been and still is a policy of the City
Council.
"Save or restore River look and atmosphere where possible. Emphasize
trees, informal space, and quiet -- contrast to surrounding urban texture and
'busy-ness. '"
The Council directed the City of Anaheim representative to advise
LAFCO that this is a matter of degree, Anaheim's attitude is not to stop de-
velopment but to attempt to regulate development so that the desirable features
are maintained.
"Balance open space/recreation demands with Corridor potentials --
some areas of intensive use, some of natural preserve, many in-between."
The Council agreed with this statement completely.
"The Santa Aha River-Santiago Creek Corridor as Orange County's link
of 'coast-to-crest' greenbelt along the Santa Ama."
The Council agreed with this statement, and also has asked Director
of Parks and Recreation John Collier to be instrumental in encouraging other
jurisdictions to do likewise.
Councilman Stephenson returned to the Council Chambers. (4:03 P.M.
Page 3 - Middle River - 17th Street to Imperial Highway:
"Warner Basin: rehabilitate for water spreading and variety of wa-
ter recreation, plus Santa Aha River Center -- 'water museum' and interpretive
facility; modify channel design."
71-217
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 6, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
The Council agreed with this statement, and has been encouraging
additional recreation along the same lines.
"Miller Basin: water spreading plus water recreation in retarding
basin, plus related land for golf course and other uses."
The Council agreed with this statement.
"Regional parks - rehabilitate old pits."
The Council agreed this is a County requirement and has been en-
couraging the County to do this.
"Agriculture - preserve."
Mr. Murdoch advised the report recon~nends the preservation of orange
groves, etc.; however, nature, by quick-decline, is phasing out the orange
groves. He added that wherever the orange groves still are thriving this
may be desirable; however!, there is a severe economic situation where assess-
ment practices have to be changed if property is to be preserved for agricul-
ture, and the Assessor cannot change the practices until State Law allows it.
Mr. Murdoch advised he did not believe this suggestion attainable,
except to some degree; that if that practice was followed it would mean the
City of Anaheim would have to acquire that property.
The Council directed the City of Anaheim representative to state
that Anaheim is not necessarily in agreement with that recommendation, a~d
is concerned about the approach; that if this is an inverse condemnation
p=actice, Anaheim definitely is opposed.
"Trail enchancement - along levees and into small and large park
areas,with trail stops."
The Council had no conflict with this statement.
"Linkages: Santiago Creek; power line rights-of-way; via Jefferson
to Anaheim Lake/Miller Basin."
The City Council stated Santiago Creek is not under the jurisdiction
of Anaheim; no comment on Jefferson to Anaheim Lake/Miller Basin.
Page 3 - Santa Aha Canyon:
"Entire Canyon, the sole significant natural area remaining in the
developed half of the County, should be preserved open and natural, retain-
ing riparian ecology, citrus groves, hillsides, natural river bottom (despite
the new freeway). Utilize flood plain zoning in flood hazard area, converva-
tion/open space zoning or other measures for hillsides. Permit compatible
open space uses subject to site plan review."
The Council disagreed with this statement on the basis it conveyed
inverse condenmation.action.
Mr. Collier stated he felt the report, except in some instances
where its recommendations went a little further than deemed necessary, was a
good report; however, Anaheim's feed-in on it necessarily would have to be
practical.
The City Council asked that the Anaheim representative convey to
LAFCO that as an ideal the report probably expresses what might be desired;
however,they are concerned about the practicality of some approaches.
Mr. Murdoch advised that the Committee appointed to represent Ana-
heim on the "Coast-to-Crest" Project is meeting at 7:30 P.M., Wednesday, April
7, 1971, in the Central Library, and Council members were invited to attend.
71-218
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 6, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
DE-ANNEXATION NO 71-1 FROM CITY OF ~LACENTIA: Mr. Murdoch reported notice has been
received of a request before LAFCO for de-annexation of property from Placentia
with the apparent intent to annex to the City of Anaheim, and to obtain multiple-
family or similar zoning; property located north of Orangethorpe Avenue, east of
Melrose Street. He added that Anaheim does presently include some property north
of Orangethorpe Avenue that is farther west of subject property.
On recommendation of the City Manager, the City of Anaheim represen-
tative at the April 14, 1971LAFCO hearing, at which this subject will be con-
sidered, was instructed to point out that Anaheim has not been involved in this
annexation, either as an instigator or a party thereto, and that annexation for
the purpose of obtaining zoning is an improper purpose.
SPECIAL DISTRICTS AND HARBOR DISTRICT ISSUES - L~GUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES: At
the March 30, 1971 meeting, Mr. Murdoch reported a request had been submitted
by the League of California Cities that Anaheim be prepared to vote on the
issues of Special Districts and the Harbor District. Subject was deferred to
this meeting for decision.
By general Council consent, the City of Anaheim representative was
instructed to report that Anaheim supports the concept as outlined in the re-
port from the Committee on Special Districts, with some reservations as to
some of its all-inclusiveness.
~ith regard to the Harbor District issue, the Anaheim representative
was instructed to advise that Anaheim favors combining Harbor District and Park
Department activities, either as a District or a Department, but does not favor
dissolution of the Harbor District.
Councilman Thom indicated he would attend the League of California
Cities meeting to be held at 6:30 P.M., Thursday, April 8, 1971, at Friedemann
Hall. The City Council requested Councilman Thom officially express the posi-
tion of the City of Anaheim at this meeting.

sion, the following actions were taken regarding the forthcoming Walnut Canyon
Dam investigation and repair program:
Dames & Moore - Inspection and Consulting Services, Existing Lining: On motion
by Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilman Pebley, the Mayor and City Clerk

Police Benevolent Association, for permit to conduct public dance, April 18,
1971, from 8:00 P.M. to 12:00 Midnight, at Anaheim Convention Center, 800 West
Katella Avenue was submitted and granted, subject to provisions of Chapter
4.16 of the Anaheim M~nicipal Code, as recommended by the Chief of Police, on
motion by Councilman Stephenson, seconded by Councilman Pebley. MOTION CARRIED.
FOLLOW-UP OF COUNCIL ACTION; Councilman Pebley requested that Council action giv-
ing an Applicant a specific length of time to comply with conditions be fol-
lowed and enforced, noting specifically Conditional Use Permit No. 1192, where
the Applicant was given 6 months to cease operations.
He also requested that public dance hall activities be investigated
to determine they are operating with the proper permit, noting particularly
hotels in the Disneyland area.
