REQUEST - AMENDMENT TO ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE~ SECTION 6.28.010 - BEEKeePING: Re-
quest of Mr. George Kaminski for an amendment to the Anaheim Municipal Code to
provide for the keeping of bees was continued from the meeting of February 20,
1973, to allow for the research into the matter.
Noted was the receipt of the following since the February 20, 1973,
meeting:
1. Offer by Mr. Roland Krueger to allow the bees to be placed on his
five acre orange grove.
2. Petition of opposition representing seven industrialists in the
immediate area.
3. Petition of approval - employees of 865 South East Street (Screen
Graphics).
street).
4. Letter of support from Mr. Nlishi (strawberry grower across the
Councilman Pebley asked for a ruling from the City Attorney as to par-
ticipating in this action because of possible conflict of interests in that the
industries that filed the complaint to the keeping of the bees at 865 South East
Street were tenants of his.
Mr. Geisler advised since Councilman Pebly had no personal interest
and the action did not involve a contract, he would not be legally required to
abstain, however the decision was his.
Councilman Pebley was of the opinion that he did have a personal inter-
est and thereupon advised that he would abstain from action on this issue.
With reference to an amendment to the Code, Mr. Geisler reported that
clarification and intent of the Council must be known before an amendment can be
drafted and the amendment to the Code will require an affirmative vote of at least
three Councilmen. In his opinion, if beekeeping within the City is allowed at
all, the logical zone in which to permit this activity would be the R-A zone.
Councilman Stephenson stated that in his opinion the bees definitely
bother and were a danger to the people in the area and that they should not be
allowed in an industrial area nor any greatly inhabited zone and that the recom-
mendations of the City Attorney's Office be taken and thereupon moved that the
ordinance regulating the keeping of bees not be amended.
Councilman Thom agreed as far as the inhabited areas were concerned,
but felt that there were several areas within the City, the hill and canyon area
and rural agricultural areas, where keeping of the bees would not be harmful.
To this Councilman Stephenson agreed.
Councilman Thom further stated that the concern at this time was the
keeping of the bees at 865 South East Street and there is no doubt Mr. Kaminski
will be required to move them, the question is, where?
Councilman Pebley suggested if allowed anywhere the use be under the
provision of a conditional use permit where those in the areas would be notified
and would have an opportunity to be heard before the activity is allowed.
Councilman Thom felt that perhaps temporary permission could be given
to allow the bees to be moved or stored in accordance with Mr. Krueger's offer
until the issue is resolved.
73-195
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - March 6~ 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
It was agreed that the Krueger property would be ideal, however in
checking into the zoning of the Krueger property, it was noted said property
was within the City and zoned either R-A or R-E.
Mr. Geisler stated the Council might approve keeping of the bees
temporarily in the R-A or R-E zone (Krueger property) pending the hearing on
a conditional use permit. He noted if the property was County territory there
would be no problem as it would be a permitted use.
At the conclusion of the discussion, Councilman Stephenson changed
his motion and moved that the City Attorney be directed to prepare an amendment
to the ordinance to permit the keeping of bees under certain conditions in the
R-A and R-E zones by a conditional use permit. Councilman Thom seconded the
motion. Councilman Pebley abstained. MOTION CARRIED.
Mr. Kaminski addressed the Council to thank them for the action taken
and asked if he could have one week's time to move the bees.
It ~as agreed by the City Council one week be granted to allow for
the removal o~ the bees. (Return of supporting material authorized by the City
Council.

GASOLINE CONTRACT: Mr. Murdoch presented the joint contract with the County of
Orange for the purchase of gasoline noting there is an increase in price and
that only one bid was received that of Union Oil Company. He read from the
memorandum of Harold Daoust, Purchasing Agent advising that the present gasoline
shortage is expected to peak out this summer and as result several cities and
counties are experiencing difficulty in obtaining quotations for a 12 month
period. Orange County was successful in obtaining one quotation and the rest
of the majors refused to quote and that all this reflects in the approximate
three and one-half cents increase in price.

capacitor banks and that Mr. George Edwards, Electrical Superintendent was pre-
sent to answer any questions the Council might have.
CONTROL CABLE - 600 VOLT: Mr. Murdoch reported that the recommendations were
to purchase said material from General Electric Supply Company for the sum of
$5,433.12, including tax, rather than the alternate bid of OPonite which bid
was on No. 9 control cable, and, therefore, did not meet City specifications.
Mr. Edwards reported that the bidders do not like to split their pro-
posals and Okonite advised specifically that they were not interested in the
No. 12 control wire unless it was a package deal for the total of control cable
and the City does not favor changing our standards as it would create wiring
problems.
On motion by Councilman Pebley, seconded by Councilman Thom, bid of
General Electric Supply in the amount of $5,433.12, including tax, was accepted
as the lowest and best bid meeting specifications. MOTION CARRIED.
CAPACITORS AND HANGERS: Mr. Edwards reported that three proposals were received
and recommended the acceptance of the bid of Sangamo Electric in the amount of
$19,404.00 as the lowest and best bid meeting City specifications as the cost
of the capacitor included the cost of the hangers.

specifications as none met the low profile criteria. As result, alternate pro-

VARIANCE NO. 2144 - STATUS OF NEW APPLICATION: Mr. Scott G. Raymond, Attorney, repre-
senting Applicant Herman Margulieux and owners of the property, Ida Rannow and Marian
Rannow, addressed the Council and noted that they had requested an extension of
Variance No. 2144 for a period of twenty-four months (24). He advised that he
was prepared at this time and had in his possession the requested deed of land
to the City of Anaheim, and was instructed to surrender the deed on these
conditions:
1. That Herman Margulieux be allowed to continue and operate his busi-
ness as a produce stand for a period of 24 months.
2. That no improvements be constructed on the property for and during
this period of 24 months.
73- 201
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - March 6, 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Pebley felt that the issue should be continued one week
for a full Council because of the conditional dedication and thereupon moved
that said matter be continued one week. Councilman Stephenson seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Further discussion was held, and Mr. Raymond advised that the reason
for the requirement of no construction during the 24 month period was because
any type of construction on Euclid Avenue would be tantamount to the closing
of the operation, and further, the City Engineer has no immediate plans, and
so a 24 month period should be considered reasonable.
He stated that an appraisal of the property to be dedicated was ob-
tained from Cedric White who valued the property at $45,000. He further added
that this was not what they considered the value to be according to the highest
and best use of the land, such as for a commercial use, that it should be more
in the neighborhood of $100,000.
Mr. Raymond stated that he has advised and the Rannow's are now well
aware of the fact that when they dedicate their property their rights end,and
that they will be required to pay for any improvements. He added that they
did not know this two years ago.
Mr. Raymond further advised that at the end of two years there will
be a vacant unimproved piece of land of approximately 15 acres and at which
time the City Council will have the latitude of making a decision without
giving up anything.
Councilman Pebley advised that he, as one Councilman, did not intend
giving up anything; that he never intended the City to install curbs, gutters,
and sidewalks.
Mr. Raymond reported that whatever improvements are required and
whenever required after the 24 month period, the property owners will pay for
and whatever documents are necessary to affectuate that agreement they will
execute.
Mr. Murdoch noted that the Rannow's may not be aware of how severe
their second requirement might be, as the Rannow's themselves have discussed
with him, and requested the City to do something about the drainage problem;
nothing can be done about the drainage without the dedication and certainly
without some improvement.
Secondly, one additional travel lane on Euclid Street might well be
appropriate and would not interefere with the business. It would be only when
the full width is developed with curbs and gutters that the business will be
affected. The addition of a travel lane only would not be at the owner's ex-
pense unless it was a part of a zone change or additional improvement.
Third, the City desires to locate a signal standard at the southwest
corner of Euclid Street and Cerritos Avenue in the dedicated area. This would
be at no expense to the property owner, but it would be an improvement and
barred in the condition as presented.
Mr. Raymond stated that they would have no objection to the signal
standard nor the additional travel lane so long as the property owners would
not have to pay for it.
Mr. Murdoch felt that before the next meeting the Applicant might
wish to modify the conditions under which the dedication would be given so
that they are practical. He again clarified that the owner of the property
would pay for the installation of sidewalks, curbs, and gutters and some street
improvements, such as street lights, if they were installed, but the conditions
of the previous variance did not require the installation of these improvements,
and therefore, the City's position has been the improvements would not be
required this time as a condition of the variance, nor would they be put in.
However, if the property is improved or the use changes, the improvements would
be required and would be at the expense of the property owner, but as long as
the property remains an agricultural use, the City is not necessarily, inter-
ested in installation of curbs, gutters and sidewalks.

SWAP MEETS - SCHOOL PROPERTY: Councilman Pebley reported he had been advised that
swap meets had been held last week at two or three of the schools (Savanna -
Magnolia with signing on Lincoln Avenue).
Mr. Geisler advised that the City had no power to control it if it is
determined to be a school sponsored activity. The signing however was illegal.
Mr. Murdoch stated that his office contacted the Superintendent of
Schools and learned it was a student activity where they would swap among them-
selves but apparently it went beyond that and professionals became involved and
that was not their intent and Mr. Wines is further investigating the situation.
ARCHITECTS - ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDING (CITY HALL): Councilman Thom called attention
to an article appearing in the Anaheim Bulletin regarding Adrian Wilson's alleged
involvement in some type of a bribery scandal in Las Vegas, Nevada and as result
this particular firm,in his opinion, should be stricken from the list to be inter-
viewed next Tuesday morning at 9:00 a.m.
Councilman Thom thereupon moved that the firm of Adrian Wilson be
stricken from the list of architects to be interviewed.
In explaining his motion, Councilman Thom stated he felt we did not need
any such scandal as this tainting or coloring what the City is about to do for a
Civic Center complex.
Councilman Stephenson stated that he also read the article and noted
that this had been over a year ago and there has still been no conviction.
Councilman Pebley noted that this was an accusation and that he had not
been proven guilty.
Councilman Thom stated that if an ind~tment is issued and the City has
engaged him, then the City ~s a part of another bribery scandal. He was trying
to eliminate the possibility of going down the road the wrong way.
