73-285
9. it~ Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - A~ril 10~ 1973, 1:30 P.M.
does not agree with the method presently employed in appointing
the Mayor. He advised that he firmly believes it should be held
only to the constituency, the voters of the City of Anaheim.
Councilman Sneegas felt that since the policy of selecting a Mayor
was voted upon in the adoption of the City Charter some years ago,
it was imperative to carry out the reorganization of the Council ac-
cordingly. He further felt under the present conditions that the
City needs the knowledge and leadership shown by Councilman Dutton
and thereupon nominated Jack C. Dutton, Mayor for the City of Anaheim.
Councilman Pebley seconded the nomination and advised that having
been the Mayor for two years,and knowing the progress made by this
City the last 49 years, and that the Charter was voted and adopted by
the people in 1964 wishing to continue the present government the City
has, he firmly believed the method of selecting the Mayor was correct
and that the City Charter was a good charter.
Councilman Stephenson moved the nominations be closed. Councilman
Sneegas seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.

ABSENT: COUNCILMEN: None
Councilman Jack C. Dutton was declared elected Mayor of the City of
Anaheim.
Mayor Dutton thanked the Council for their confidence and stated that
the demands on the office of Mayor are very burdensome and he had done
his best in the past and wouldstrive to do equally as well in the
future. He further stated he appreciated the honor and confidence
expressed.
Mayor Dutton also noted the selection of Mayor was established by the
will of the people in adopting the Charter in 1964. In his opinion
the people serving in the capacity of Councilmen are far better qual-
ified to know who should be Mayor than the people who by their nega-
tive action don't even vote for the office of Councilmen. He noted
this was an unfortunate situation and that the City rarely obtains
a 30% vote in a Councilmanic election.
Councilman Stephenson concurred with the statements made by Mayor
Dutton and noted that only one city in Orange County elects the
Mayor by popular vote. In his opinion the election of Mayor by
the Council is the best system.
The City Clerk called for nominations for the office of Mayor Pro Tem
for the City of Anaheim.
Councilman Stephenson nominated Councilman Ralph G. Sneegas for the
office of Mayor Pro Tem. He advised that while serving the City as
Chief of Police he had the privilege of starting Jerry Sneegas in a
police career; that he is no longer in police work but presently owns
his own very successful business. Councilman Stephenson stated that
Jerry gneegas is a very fine honest gentleman and that he considered
it a great privilege and honor to nominate him.
Councilman Pebley seconded the nomination and moved the nominations
be closed. Councilman Stephenson seconded the motion. MOTION
CARRIED.

property located at the northwest corner of La Palma Avenue and West Street to
construct a seven-story addition to the existing hospital and to establish spe-
cialty shops on the ground floor of a primary use structure three or more stories
in height with the following waivers:
a. Minimum landscaped setback.
b. Minimum landscaped setback where parking areas are adjacent to
streets.
c. Maximum building height within 300 feet of a single-family tesi-
dential zone.
d. Maximum wall height in required setback area.
e. Permitted sign and sign area.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT NO. 89: The City Planning Commission pursuant to
Resolution No. PC73-48 found that the impact on the two single-family homes on
Lombard Drive would be significant and recommended that the Environmental Impact
Report No. 89 be amended to offer alternative methods of implementing the project
which would mitigate the adverse affects of location and height of the proposed
structure.
The Environmental Impact Report Review Cormmittee recommended Report No.
89 be rejected because it did not include sufficient discussion of adverse envir-
onmental affects on the adjacent residential property.
Mr. Roberts reported that the primary concern of the Environmental Re-
port Committee to the original report was the impact of the proposed location of
the building upon the two R-1 parcels on the west side of Lombard Drive, however
the hospital has since acquired these two parcels so that aspect of the Committee's
concern has been eliminated.
On motion by Councilman Pebley, seconded by Councilman Stephenson, Envir-
onmental Impact Report No. 89 as submitted together with supplement dated March 12,
1973 was adopted as the Environmental Impact Statement of the City Council. MOTION
CARRIED.

73-288
C.ity Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April l0t 1973; 1:30 P,M.
Letter of opposition to Conditional Use Permit No. 1375, dated April 3,
1973 from Robert P. Rails, M. D., was duplicated and copies thereof furnished
each member of the Council upon receipt (April 5, 1973).
Mr. Roberts reported the total area involved was a little over
11-1/3 acres located at the northwest corner of West Street and La Palma Avenue
the easterly portion thereof presently developed as the Anaheim Memorial Hospital,
the westerly portion comprising a number of R-1 lots which have been acquired by
the hospital to be incorported in the development scheme.
In explaining the waivers requested, Mr. Roberts advised that waiver
(a) "minimum landscaped setback" - the Petitioner stipulated that they would com-
ply with this regulation and the revised plan incorporates this provision.
Waiver (b) "Minimum landscaped setback where parking areas are adjacent
to streets" - Code requires three feet and plans indicate setbacks from zero feet
to more than ten feet.
Waiver (c) "Maximum building height within 300 feet of a single-family
residential zone" - this applied to the two lots on Lombard Drive which are now
owned by the hospital, and revised plans indicate relocation of the building, as
result, this particular waiver now applies only to some of the parcels on the south
side of La Palma Avenue.
Waiver (d) "Maximum wall height in required setback area" - a six foot
block wall is planned for around the parking area which will provide additional
protection to the R-1 homeowners on Hermosa Drive.
Waiver (e) "Permitted sign and sign area" - this waiver would provide
for one additional free-standing identification sign on La Palma Avenue.
Mr. Roberts explained that the hospital intends to demolish all of the
existing single-family homes and abandon all public streets and easements within
the confines of their development proposal and also file a reversion to acreage
map over the entire area so that the properties will be combined under one parcel.
He explained the parking proposed on the original plans exceeded minimum
requirements by 70 spaces and based on the new revised plans that excess is even
greater.
Mr. Roberts, in summary advised that the action taken by the Planning
Commission was based on the former plans containing the two R-1 lots which have
since been acquired by the hospital, however the revised plans have been reviewed
by the Planning Conmaission, it being noted that the hospital structure will be
relocated and setback 25 feet in conformance with the present setback of the
Cromer Tower. It was their opinion that the revised plans were substantially in
conformance with the plans originally approved.
In answer to question of Councilman Thom, Mr. Roberts reported that there
is a requirement that a cul-de-sac be provided at the new terminus of Hermosa
Drive, which does create a cul-de-sac street of approximately 600 feet in length.
The Mayor asked if the Applicant was present and satisfied with the
recommendations of the City Planning Commission.
Mr. Donald Drew of Musick, Peeler and Garrett, Attorneys, representing
the Applicant advised that they were satisfied with what has been recommended and
presented.
The Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the Council in opposition.
Mr. Richard Daily, representing the property at 1112 La Palma Circle,
advised said property is not owned by the hospital (Lot No. 50) and requested the
300-foot setback provision be maintained,and further advised that they would cer-
tainly protest the abandonment of La Palma Circle.
Mr. Roberts reported that this particular parcel of property (Lot No.
50) was brought to the City Council at the meeting of February 6, 1973, for
~nclusion in subject reclassification on the reasonable probability
73-289
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 10; 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
that the hospital would acquire said lot prior to the processing and completion
of said zoning action and to eliminate the necessity of a separate petition and
additional hearings when acquisition is finalized. At the February 6, 1973
meeting, inclusion of Lot No. 50 was authorized with zoning and conditional use
permit contingent upon hospital ownership of the parcel.
Mr. Drew reported it was their understanding that Lot No. 50 is in
foreclosure and potential litigation with the Bank of America as apparently
this property and others are covered by a lien and that this has lead to the
problem of acquiring the property.
As to the setback, Mr. Drew advised it was his understanding that
Lot No. 50 is not within the setback area requirements.
It being determined sufficient evidence had been given, Mayor Dutton
declared the hearing closed.
RESOLUTION NO. 73R-135: Councilman Stephenson offered Resolution No. 73R-135
for adoption, authorizing necessary ordinance changing the zone as requested

1691 to the legal description of said reclassification:
1. That prior to the introduction of an ordinance rezoning Lot No.
50 of Tract No. 1691 to the C-O, Commercial Office Zone, written evidence shall

2. That the owner(s) of subject property shall deed to the City of

City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April l0t 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
15. That prior to approval of the final tract map, floor plans and
elevations for the proposed houses shall be submitted to the City Council for
review and approval.
Findings:
1. That prior to City Council approval of a final tract map, the
City Clerk should notify representatives of the Peralta Hills Improvement
Association of said action in order that these representative may determine
whether their concerns expressed at the Planning Commission hearing regarding
increase in volume and velocity of water draining from subject property onto
the Peralta Hills area have been adequately resolved; and that adequate measures
have been taken to assure said property owners that their drinking water supply
will not be contaminated.
2. While it is the normal policy of the City to require left-turn
pockets at all street intersections with Nohl Ranch Road, the Planning Commis-
sion recommends (based upon a recommendation from the Interdepartmental Commit-
tee for Public Safety and General Welfare) that left-turn pockets not be re-
quired in this instance. The reason for this recommendation is that the exist-
ing right-of-way of Nohl Ranch Road is inadequate to provide a left-turn pocket,
and the property on the other side of Nohl Ranch Road and westerly of the street
intersection, where the turn pocket is needed, is already developed. This makes
acquisition of the necessary right-of-way impractical.
Mrs. Lucille Krueger, representing the Peralta Hills Improvement
Association, stated that this group is concerned about the impact of Tentative
Tract No. 8153, particularly as it relates to plans for drainage of subject
property. The Peralta Hills Improvement Association feels that the development
of Nohl Ranch poses problems for the down-hill properties, in that collection
of run-off water, changing of its course and increasing the velocity presents
the hazards of soil errosion, flooding and potential danger to the Peralta Hills
Water Company domestic water supply. She presented photographs taken at various
hill and canyon locations illustrating these problems. (These were reviewed
by Council and returned to Mrs. Krueger)
Mrs. Krueger advised that the Lusk Corporation has met with the
Peralta Hills Improvement Association and the drainage plans were discussed in
detail. She noted that if the drainage system is constructed as proposed, i.e.,
drainage to Nohl Ranch Road except for the north slope which will be diverted
east and west around the reservoir, and the north flowing water adequately
handled to Peralta Hills Drive, the Association is satisfied that flood and
errosion control will be sufficient. The Peralta Hills Improvement Association
therefore supports approval of Tentative Map, Tract No. 8153,~but requests that
the Council make this approval subject to thorough review of the drainage plan
by the City Engineering staff as well as of drainage control throqghout the
Peralta Hills area, in line with the City's policy requiring the developer to
take care of run-off from subject property to the ultimate point of disposal.
Mr. Murdoch pointed out Condition No. 9 and Finding No. 1 which were
imposed upon approval of Tentative Map, Tract No. 8153 by the City Planning
Commission'at the meeting held March 19, 1973; which condition requires that
drainage of subject property be disposed of in a manner satisfactory to the
City Engineer and said facilities be sufficient to carry run-off waters to ul-
timate disposal. The Finding indicates that prior to approval of the final
map, the City Clerk should notify representatives of the Peralta Hills Improve-
ment Association of the pending action so that this group may determine whether
or not their concerns have been adequately resolved.
Councilman Sneegas expressed concern regarding conditions illustrated
in the photographs submitted and was assured by Mr. Maddox that this is an
interim condition which occurred due to the heavy rainfall prior to completion
of the drainage system construction.
Mr. Bill Lusk, Lusk Corporation, Post Office Box 2140, Newport Beach,
indicated that his firm is willing and has made arrangements to discuss the
Final Map of Tract No. 8153 with the Peralta Hills Improvement Association prior
to submission of said map to the City for approval, and further to review with
them also the tentative map for the next tract to the east when that is prepared.
He advised that they intend to remain open to such discussion and review because
of the high liability in the hill and canyon areas.

meeting of April 11, 1973. He reported that staff has done some analysis
since the last time this subject was discussed and it is necessary to deter-
mine whether Council is in concurrence. A map was postedon a wall in Council
Chambers and boundaries of the area to be considered described by Mr. Murdoch.
The criteria for establishment of a Zone of Influence is to show
that area which the City can logically serve. This has been shown on the
map all the way to the County Line, and includes an area which goes to the
first ridge north of the Santa Ana River and comes down on a lesser ridge in
between Yorba Linda and the City of Anaheim. The City of Anaheim has annexed
the area on the south side of Esperanza Road from Imperial east to the Shorb
Wells property on the north side of the river. The Local Agency Formation
Commission on two occasions has ruled in favor of that property north of
Esperanza Road and the railroad going to Yorba Linda as their ultimate area,
and limited the City of Anaheim to the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad
on the north side of the river.
(Mr. Murdoch before proceeding further disclosed that he has a
financial interest in 1.3 acres on the north side of the river.)
He further reported that to the south of the river is an area which
long has been felt will ultimately become part of Anaheim, and a mutual
boundary has been set by agreement with the City of Orange at the ridge line
on the top of the Nohl Ranch property through the Irvine property east to the
County Line. The implications regarding the north side of the river, north
of Esperanza Road, have been reviewed by staff and it is their feeling that
since the L.A.F.C. has pretty well determined that this portion should be
included in Yorba Linda's future development, that the City should recommend
that the narrow strip of land beyond Shorb Wells, between the railroad and
the river should also be included in Yorba Linda's Sphere of Influence as it
would be difficult for Anaheim to provide police and fire service for just
that,narrow strip, because of the very limited access proposed. It is staff's
opinion that this would be a logical service area of the portion north of
Esperanza Road. It is therefore their suggestion that it be the City's
recommendation for tomorrows L.A.F.C. meeting that the area from the Shorb
Wells east beyond the Santa Fe Railroad and the river be included with the
Zone of Influence on the north side of the river, i.e. Yorba Linda's Sphere
of Influence. ' ·
Councilman Thom commented that the cost factors for providing
services in these areas are not yet known and he could not recommend that
the City extend all the way to the County Line without having some idea as
to whether the City can afford to provide the services required.
Mr. Murdoch replied that inclusion of an area in a Zone of Influence
does not necessarily commit the city to annex same, or even to develop it if
it is annexed. Mr. Murdoch reiterated that the Zone of Influence should apply
to that area the City can physically serve.
Councilman Thom felt that inclusion of territory in a Sphere of
Influence on the basis of being able to provide services does imply that
the City can afford and i~ interested in providing these services.
Mr. Murdoch stated that the only responsibility the City would
incur would be that of considering the possibility of development in the
Zone of Influence area rather than some other city considering it.

Mr. Murdoch again outlined the two possibilities for recommendation
by the Council as follows: (1) Either to recommend that the entire area indi-
cated on the map from ridge line north of the river to the ridge on the opposite
side south of the river be designated as Anaheim's Sphere of Influence or (2)
to recommend that the area north of the river, from Shorb Wells eastward, be
included in the Yorba Linda Sphere of Influence since the L.A.F.C. has very
positively indicated on two occasions they feel the area north of the river
should be incorporated into Yorba Linda's area of responsibility. Due to the
fact that every property owner affected on the north side of the river has
requested annexation to the City of Anaheim, the Council may request that the
Anaheim Zone incorporate the entire area from ridge line to r~dge line, however
likelihood of approval was nil.
On motion by Councilman Pebley, seconded by Councilman Stephenson, the
City Council determined that their recommendation for the proposed Anaheim
Sphere of Influence boundaries be that the northerly boundary be established
as the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway from Imperial Highway to and
including the Shorb Wells property, then dropping southerly to the centerline
of the Santa Ana River, following the centerline of the river easterly to the
Orange County Line; further that it be recommended that the property north of
this line be included in the Yorba Linda Sphere of Influence and that the south
boundary of the Anaheim Sphere of Influence remain as the ridge line separating
the Cities of Anaheim and Orange. To this motion, Councilman Thom voted "no".
MOTION CARRIED.
SOLICITATION PERMIT - EVANGELISM CRUSADES, INC.: Application of Mrs. Tuk Soon Kang,
on behalf of Evangelism Crusades, Inc., 3438 59th Place, Los Angeles for per-
mission to solicit door-to-door was submitted together with report from Police
Department.
Mr. Murdoch reported that according to this application, the funds
raised would be used in various places in the Far East for food and medical care
for orphaned and destitute children. The police report further indicates that
only three solicitors would be involved, and that the organization is tax exempt
with the State and Federal Government, as a religious and charitable group. The
organization is relatively new, having headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona, and th~
only other city for which they have applied for similar permits is South Pasadena,
which police department shows no record of this organization within their city.
By general Council consent, this matter was deferred for one week to
allow for further investigation into said organization, including making contact
with authorities in Phoenix, Arizona if necessary.
SOLICITATION PERMIT - PAL'S ORGANIZATION: Application of Paul E. Parsons and Alexander
J. Wark to solicit on behalf of the PAL'S Organization, 10630 Gramercy Place,
Riverside, was submitted together with report from the Police Department.
Mr. Murdoch noted that this group intends to solicit funds to be
used to provide cards, small gifts, entertainment, etc., for the ill and dis-
abled in convalescent homes and hospitals. They solicit by contacting service
clubs, no door-to-door solicitation is proposed. The Police Department reports
they find no reason to deny a permit at this time. Mr. Murdoch further noted
that the organization has a license to solicit in Santa Aha, as well as in several
cities within Riverside County.
On motion by Councilman Sneegas, seconded by Councilman Thom, applica-
tion for solicitation of funds submitted by the PAL~S Organization was approved.

REQUEST - ORANGE COUNTY REVENUE SHARING FUNDS FOR PARK DEVELOPMENT AND ACQUISITION:
Mr. Murdoch reported that some County revenue sharing funds have been designated
for use toward neighborhood, community and regional parks, and in line with that
approach, a request together with supporting data has been prepared for sub-
mission to the Orange County Board of Supervisors. Said letter was read in full
by Mr. Murdoch and contains the request for County participation in development
and acquisition costs for Twila Reid Park, Riverdale Park and Anaheim Lake.
The location of these facilities was pointed out on the large Anaheim General
Plan map by Mr. Murdoch. The following information in support of these
requests was included in the letter:
a. Twila Reid Park: This park will serve a radius of two
miles and a population of 58,900, not served by any other revenue shar-
ing project. It is located at Orange and Western Avenues and will be
accessible to parts of Buena Park, Stanton and Cypress in addition to
Anahezm. When completed this park will provide 25 acres of family
oriented recreation, with lighted softball diamond, picnic facilities,
children's play area, small community building, volley ball, spray
pool, shuffle board and horseshoes.
The cost of land acquisition for this park is $720,000 and
the acreage has already been acquired by the City. In addition, the
City has expended $45,000 to develop the first five acres.- It is
estimated that the next 20 acres will cost $493,000 to develop, in-
cluding about $93,000 worth of City labor, for a total project in-
vestment of approximately $1,258,000. Of th~s sum the City is're-
questing County participation via revenue sharing fund in the amount
of $200,000, or 15.9 percent of the total cost.
b. Riverdale Park: This park would serve a one mile radius
north and west of the Riverside Freeway, including portions of Yorba
Linda and Orange as well as Anaheim. It would serve an estimated pop-
ulation of 7,100 people, not served by any other revenue sharing pro-
ject. The park site is comprised of ten acres located in the north-
east section of the City. This would be a family-oriented park with
softball diamonds, picnic facilities and play area. Due to the newness
of canyon development and 170 F.H.A. subsidized units within the ser-
vice area, a heavy youth and family demand is anticipated for this
park site.
Acquisition of this site has not yet been accomplished~ and
the cost for acquisition and development is estimated to be $475,000.
It is noted that if this project is delayed, inflation will increase
this figure considerably. It is proposed that the cost for acquisi-
tion and development be shared on a 50/50 County/City participation,
$237,500 from each entity and this sum is being herewith requested
from the County's portion of revenue sharing funds.
c. Anaheim Lake: The City is requesting a small contri-
bution, in the amount of $5,000 from County Revenue Sharing Funds for
the planning phase of additional landscaping and improvement at this
73-302
C.it~. Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 10~ 1973~ 1:30 P.~:
site. The City is not responsible for the actual improvements them-
selves, but for the design thereof.
In addition, Mr. Murdoch added that the letter identifies several other
City of Anaheim park projects which are in need of early action because of act-
ivities becoming imminent since the March 13, 1973 request as follows: John
Marshall Park - expansion by 12 acres is anticipated; Schweitzer Park (7% acres);
Juarez Park (9% acres); Rio Vista (5 acres); Canyon Site No. 1 (17 acres).
The letter indicates that as the new fiscal year approaches, priority
listing of these sit, will take place and most likely these will be included in
the City's request for park development funds from the next revenue sharing al-
location.
Mr. Murdoch stated that this matter has been brought to Council's atten-
tion to insure that the above is within Council's current intent. Further he
observed that it would be appropriate for Council to meet with'the Parks and
Recreation Commission within the next six weeks to review some of the implications
of these recommendations and set policy regarding park development. Mr. Murdoch
observed that park maintenance is a continuing responsibility for the City and a
matter of setting relative priorities.
In conclusion, the City Manager requested Council's concurrence in the
above request and stated that the City's portion of expenses in connection with'
the three projects for which County Revenue Sharing Funds have been requested have
already been included in either the current or the coming year's budget up to this
time.
Councilman Pebley asked how soon the monies requested from the County-
could be expected.
Mr. Murdoch replied that the funds are requested from either 1972 Orange
County Revenue Sharing Allocations or the first of its 1973 allocations and this
will be available from the Federal Agency to the County on July 1, 1973. As soon
as the paper work and agreements with the County have been completed, the money
would be accessible to the City and the projects would go forward at that time.
Councilman Thom stated he was in agreement wikh the letter and further
that it would seem appropriate to him that the City request some'monetary help
with the Anaheim Hills Golf Course, in that this serves as a regional recreational
facility, as well as the ravine purchased by the City for park purposes at
$10,000 per acre (referred to by Councilman Thom as "gopher gulch").
Mr. Murdoch stated that these sites may be appropriate for inclOsion
in the requests, but that it remains a matter of priority as to when such request
is made.
Mr. John Collier notified Council that prior to development of the ravine
area as a parks the Grant Company is required to provide for the water and flood
protection through that canyon area.
Councilman Pebley inquired as to how the figure of approximately $442,000
which is being requested was arrived at.
Mr. Murdoch stated that it would be impractical to request much more
than this amount in that there is approximately $500,000 remaining in the C6'unty
allocation for park purposes out of revenue sharing funds. Further that the re-
quest for funds should be made only on the basis of those projects which the City
can readily commit itself to for its share of the expense. Mr. Murdoch outlined
the type of projects for which County aid was requested and was denied~ stating
in this instance, requests were made for the type of projects being approved in
other parts of the County.
Councilman Pebley moved that the letter as read by Nr. Murdoch, contain-
ing requests for Orange County participation via County .Revenue Sharing Funds in
the acquisition and development of Twila Reid Park, Riverdale Park and Anaheim
Lake recreational facilities be authorized. Councilman Stephensou seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.

City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - April 10~ 1973, 1:30 P.M.
POLICY REGARDING INVOCATION: Councilman Thom moved that the City Council establish
a policy whereby the prayer of Invocation given at the beginning of each Council
meeting be spread in full upon the Minutes. He referred to the fact that the
only time he has seen the Invocation in full upon the Minutes was for the Ad-
journed Regular Meeting of February 22, 1973, which was held at the Covenant
Presbyterian Church and that he felt these prayers are inspiring and that since
they are a part of the meeting should be included in the Minutes in entirety.
Councilman Dutton was of the opinion that although the Invocations
are an important and a regular part of the meeting, since some of the prayers
are quite lengthy, inclusion of these in full in the Minutes-would create a
great deal of additional paper work. He felt it would be sufficient to
continue as we have, and have the Invocation recited by a Minister. Ne noted
that the occasion that Councilman Thom referred to was unique in that it was
the first prayer given in the newly organized Covenant Presbyterian Church.
Councilman Sneegas stated that despite the fact that he personally
would very much like to see the Invocation spread in full upon the Minutes,
he could not second the motion since he felt the City is already overburdened
with paper work.
There being no second to said motion, Mayor Dutton declared the
motion dead for a lack of a second.
ADJOURNMENT: Councilman Pebley moved to adjourn. Councilman Sneegas seconded the
motion. MOTION CARRIED.
