No. 1. Public hearing continued to be considered in conjunction with ad-
jacent properties.
RECLASSIFICATION NO, .70-71-49: Submitted by Geraldine E. Roth, et al, re-
questing a change of zone from County of Orange A1 to City of Anaheim R-2-
5000 on property located between the Riverside Freeway and Santa Aha Can-
yon Road, east of Imperial Highway.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC71-81,
recommended said reclassification be denied and R-1 zoning approved, sub-
ject to conditions.
Public hearing wa~ held and closed June 8, 1971, and decision
continued to be considered in conjunction with adjacent properties.
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts noted the location of subject
properties, consisting of approximately 137 acres and 506 proposed R-2-5000
zoned lots. He advised that the Planning Commission had recommended denial
of the R-2-5000 zoning on the basis this would not be appropriate for the
area and would not conform to land use and density noted on the General
Plan; they thus had recommended the area be developed under the Site Develop-
ment Standards of R-1 zoning, requiring 7,200-square foot lots.
In reply to Council questioning, Mr. Roberts stated it was his
opinion the City Planning Commission did not believe R-1 zoning necessarily
would result in better quality homes than R-2-5000, but felt the lower
density should be maintained in the area; that there is a total of 214 acres
in the Canyon area between Imperial Highway and where the Riverside Freeway
and Santa Ana Canyon Road intersect.
Mayor Dutton asked if the Applicants or their Agents wished to
address the Council.
Larry Matzick, Ponderosa Homes, 2082 Business Center Drive, Ir-
vine, Agent for Reclassification No. 71-72-5 and Tentative Tract No. 7485,
advised is was their intent to develop in the Canyon along the same lines
as their project now under construction at Kellogg Drive and Orangethorpe
Avenue (artist's renderings were displayed but not filed with the City Clerk),
where the homes range from 1,300 to 1,800 square feet and have a sale price
of $26,995.00 to $33,000.00; however, he added, they plan to modify the
homes in the proposed development for better enhancement and to follow the
Scenic Corridor theme.
He also stated that, because of the drainage problem and other
improvements that will be necessary in subject area, plus the higher cost
of the land, prices of the homes in the proposed development will be higher;
today, since there is approximately ½% per month rise in prices of ~aterials
and labor, by the time the project could be under way in about six months,
the prices of the homes would be an additional $600.00, $700.00 or $800.00
higher than the ones across the Freeway.
Mr. Matzick stated it was their desire to install some kind of
planter wells for trees, etc., on Santa Aha Canyon Road and also in the cul-
de-sac area in the tract, and have these maintained. He displayed a render-
lng of the landscaping proposed for Santa Ana Canyon Road.
He also stated it was their desire that their proposed project
come under a "Planned Conmmnity" ordinance prior to final reading on the
zoning ordinance, and that final approval of development plans and plot and
grade plans be approved by the City Council prior to issuance of building
permits to insure quality development.
71-563
.City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 14, 1971, 1:30 P.M,
In reply to Council questioning, Mr. Matzick advised their proposal
would result in 5.28 or 5.3 lots per acre, with the lots almost 6,000-square
feet in size; that they could construct approximately 30 more homes on the
lots as set up than would be possible under R-1 zoning, amd if a true R-2-5,000
lot size was maintained they could construct approximately 50 more homes than
under R-1 zoning.
Councilman Stephenson asked if Mr. Matzick would be willing to stip-
ulate that the lot sizes would be at least 6,000-square feet in this project.
Mr. Matzick stated that because of the flood control area and other
problem areas, it would be impossible to adhere strictly to 6,000 square
foot lots.
Mayor Dutton asked if anyone else wished to address the Council.
Stewart Moss, 21463 Mohler Place (in the County), representing the
Santa Ana Canyon Property Owners Association, reiterated the opposition of
his organization to other than R-1 zoning in the Canyon Area, south of the
Santa Aha River. He stated there usually are four persons per R-2-5,000 unit
and this would be an additional 2,000 persons from the two subject reclassi-
fications that have tract maps filed, resulting in, among other things, an ad-
ditional 800 to 1,000 cars driving through the area from only a small portion
of the whole Canyon area, additional burdens on the schools and Police and
Fire Departments.
He also expressed concern that none of the tract maps indicate any
park or greenbelt areas, and stated that his organization did not want another
development such as that at the mouth of the Canyon where all that is visible
is house roofs; also, that granting R-2-5,000 zoning on subject proper-
ties would open the door for r~ore such zoning farther out in the Canyon.
James L. Morris, Agent for the four parcels of Reclassification No.
71-72-5, stated that he had understood a portion of subject property adjoining
Imperial Highway would be cormnercial, and thus no homes would be constructed
on that land.
Referring to an earlier statement that land in the Canyon area is
expensive, Mr. Moss stated that in the last 5% years the property in Reclas-
sification No. 71-72-5 had decreased in price from $20,500.00 to $13,800.00
an acre, which is low for an R-1 use, and this has been caused primarily by
the fact that a great amount of dirt must be brought in for fill and the drain-
age ditch must be improved. He contended that the price of the property would
have to be reduced further if the R-2-5,000 zoning was not granted.
A1 Hyatt, 251 Orange Acres Drive, representing the Peralta Hills
Homeowners Association, advised that although they realized the entire Canyon area
could not be held to the one-acre size lots of Peralta Hills, they are strongly
against R-2-5,000 development and feel the original intent of maintaining R-1
zoning on the south side of the River should be adhered to.
Dale W. Gridey, 6201 Santa Aha Canyon Road, owner of approximately
six acres under Reclassification No. 71-72-5, stated that directly across from
his property there are 12 acres of con~aercial property which must be taken
into consideration.
Referring to the comment about the additional traffic that would be
created by the proposed developments, Mr. Gridey stated that since Santa Aha
Canyon Road is a four and six-lane highway it could easily accommodate the
increased traffic.
Mr. Gridey contended the area around Mohler Drive has a great deal
of dry brush and parked trailers and must be the lower-grade area since two
years ago his taxes on 2-1/4 acres in the Mohler Drive area were $199.00 and
the taxes on subject property are $400.00 per acre.
71-564
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - Septmm_ber 14, 1971, 1:30 P.M
Mr. Matzick mentioned the Regional Park proposed for the area north
of the River and east of Imperial Highway, which would mean 140 acres of park
area that had been tentatively zoned R-2-5000.
Harvey Pease, owner of property across from subject property, sta-
ted that since today people have other interests apart from landscaping and
agriculture the trend seems to be toward smaller lots. He added that the
prices to be charged for these developments should assure quality homes,in
his opinion.
C.J. Queyrel, Anacal Engineering Company, Agent for Reclassifica-
tion No. 70-71-53, displayed a map on the wall showing subject property in
relation to the surrounding area, and advised that although not yet zoned,
the proposed commercial use for the corner of Imperial Highway and Santa Ana
Canyon Road would make the subject property adjoining that development appro-
priate for R-3 zoning.
He noted that the lots of Reclassification No. 70-71-53 that are
adjacent to Santa Ana Canyon Road will be approximately 15 feet below the
grade of the road, and thus one-story homes would show nothing but roofs
along that road; also, that the recent improperly-constructed River improve-
ments would necessitate expensive pumps to facilitate drainage of the property,
unless about 200,000-cubic yards of fill are brought in to bring the property
up to the level where it would withstand the 100-year flood as established by
the Corps of Engineers.
Mr. Queyrel advised that Long Beach Construction Developers intend
to erect quality homes on subject property to sell at prices ranging from
$27,500.00 to $34,000.00, and added that they would like to request that they
be allowed to set up 55-foot lots, 95-feet deep, which would make the density
factor about midpoint between R-1 and R-2-5,000 zoning.
Gil Kraemer, representing the owners under Reclassification No. 70~
71-49, contended any type of residential construction would be difficult on
subject property since it is about 3,000-feet long, all of which is along
the Scenic Corridor, and has an average width of about 300 feet; thus the
density of this 40-acre parcel would be considerably less than the other
tracts under consideration at this time.
Mayor Dutton asked if anyone else wished to address the Council;
there being no response, declared the hearing closed.
Councilman Roth stated he would like to see the density of the Can-
yon area kept as low as possible; however, he realized that the drainage situ-
ation and Scenic Corridor concept presented problems, and thus he would like
to see lot sizes kept between R-2-5,000 and R-1 regulations. He asked if it
was permissible to require Council approval of elevations, plans, lot sizes, etc.
Mr. Watts advised there was nothing to prevent adding such condi-
tions to a reclassification. Mr. Roberts noted this procedure had been used
approximately 1½ years ago on a development directly across Santa Aha Canyon
Road.
In reply to Council questioning,Mr. Thompson advised that R-2-5,000
zoning would yield about 5.0 to 5.3 units per acre in subject area because
of flood control situation and terrain; normal R-2-5,000 zoning on flat ter-
rain would average about 5.7 to 5.85 units per acre.
Councilman Dutton stated he did not think granting R-2-5,000 zoning
in this instance would set a precedent for the rest of the Canyon area, since
he understood about 40% of the hill area is undevelopable.
Councilman Stephenson expressed the opinion that the earlier decision
to retain R-1 zoning throughout the south side of the River should be adhered to;
that granting R-2-5000 on these three applications would set a precedent for the
entire Canyon.
71-565
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 14, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Dutton recalled that R-2-5,000 zoning had been considered
appropriatm-for area between Imperial Highway and Santa Ana Canyon Road and
Freeway intersection until the developer had attempted to get R-4,000 zoning,
and it was at that time that the Council determined to set R-1 zoning.
In reply to Council questioning, Development Services Department
representatives advised that, since it would be possible to construct an
additional R-2-5,000-unit per acre in subject area, as compared with R-I,
this would make a difference of approximately 126 homes on the three tracts
under consideration.
Councilman Thom stated that the one concern of the Homeowners Asso-
ciations in the Canyon area has been the possibility of higher density, and
thus he felt R-1 zoning should be retained as previously determined and reaf-
firmed by the City Council, particularly since it is the desire to keep the
Canyon area unique and different.
Councilman Pebley expressed the opinion that R-2-5,000 development
next to a shopping center was preferable to R-3, since R-3 zoning for just
the i~m~ediate area around the shopping center could result in thousands of
apartment units.
Mr. Roberts recormnended that, in view of the fact that the Scenic
Corridor Overlay Zone was adopted subsequent to City Planning Co~ntssion con-
sideration of the application,~ if Reclassification No. 70-71-49 is granted,
Condition No. 3 of the Interdepartmental recon~nendations setting forth the
Scenic Corridor requirements be changed to "Subject property shall be de- ·
veloped in accordance with standards of the Scenic Corridor Overlay Zone;"
also, that consistent with past action of the Council, if the tentative tract
maps are approved an additional condition be imposed that "the City Council
reserves the right to delete or amend the assumption of landscape mainten-
ance in the event Council policy changes."
RESOLUTION: Councilman Stephenson offered a Resolution for adoption, deny-
ing R-2-5000 and approving R-I, as recon~nended by the City Planning Commission
for Reclassification 71-72-5.

tain waivers of code requirements pertaining to signs, for C-1 zoned prop-
erty located on the northwest corner of Lincoln Avenue and East Street, as
follows:

The City Planning Con~ntssion, pursuant to Resolution Nos. PC71-144,
PC71-145 and PC71-146, denied said variances.
Appeal from action taken by the City Planning Cormnission was filed
by Donovan W. Fink, General Maintenance, Inc., Agent for Mobil Oil Corpora-
tion, and public hearings scheduled August 31, 1971, and continued to this
date to determine whether a solution could be worked out within the frame-
work of the existing sign ordinance.
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts advised that discussions were
held with Mobil Oil Corporation representatives, and it was discovered that
the request they actually were making differed from the application filed.
He reported two other type signs requested in addition to the original sign.
Mr. Roberts further reported on the various solutions considered,
and of the three types of signs wanted it was resolved to the 3'7" x 3'7"
"self-service" sign to be located on a new pole at the end of the self-
service island, the base of the sign to be in compliance with the sign
ordinance, thereby eliminating waiver "b", and to have triangular message
unit signs on each of the islands.
In reply to Council questioning, Assistant City Attorney Alan
Watts advised that review of the State laws revealed they had no bearing on
placement or location, but dealt strictly with copy and the requirement that
all prices of gasoline must be displayed.
Mayor Dutton asked if the Applicant's Agent wished to address the
Council.
Ike Manley, General Maintenance, Inc., 11372 Western Avenue, Stan-
ton, Agent for the Applicant, advised that subsequent to discussion with the
Development Services Department staff, Mobil Oil Corporation had agreed their
their request would be for one 3'7" x 3'7" x 10'10" high, free-standing,
double-faced sign located at the end of the self-service island, advertising
self-service with the price sign attached to this free-standing sign.
Mr. Manley submitted photographs of their proposal, which were
reviewed and filed with the City Clerk.
Joe Williams, representing Mobil Oil Corporation, advised that if
the City Council objected to the price sign being attached to the free-standing
self-service sign, the Applicant is willing to display this price on the
free-standing sign at the edge or corner of subject property.
The City Council reviewed the plans for subject application.
Mayor Dutton asked if anyone else wished to address the Council;
there being no response, declared the hearing closed.

COOPERATIVE PROGRAM- ANAHEIM AND BUENA PARK LIBRARIES: Request of William J.
Griffith, Library Director, on behalf of the Library Board,was submitted
for permission to appear before the Council to seek approval for a program
of cooperation between the Anaheim Public Library and the Buena Park Li-
brary District. Mayor Dutton invited the Library Board representative to
address the Council.
Mrs. Elizabeth Schultz, Chairman of the Anaheim Public Library
Board, advised that in its constant search for ways to improve the library
service, the Anaheim Public Library Board has held discussions with the
Buena Park Library District Board and the Director, and now would like ap-
proval to enter into a reciprocal arrangement whereby each city would honor
library cards of the other.
She stated that there now is a fair-sized group of Anaheim resi-
dents located west of Beach Boulevard which has requested, but does not have,
branch library service and these people are fairly close to the Buena Park
Library located on La Palma Avenue, near Knott Avenue.
Councilman Stephenson questioned the advisability of allowing
Buena Park residents to use the Anaheim Public Library facilities when Ana-
heim services already are short.
William J. Griffith, Library Director, advised that such a recip-
rocal arrangement would be of benefit to Anaheim in providing library ser-
vices to that area not now served, and reduce some of the traffic to the
M~in Library and Haskett Branch Library from that area; in return, Anaheim
could offer Buena Park the advantage of having access to the greater amount
of reference and technical material available in Anaheim Main Library.
In reply to Council questioning, M~r. Griffith advised that Anaheim's
Bookmobile service would not go into Buena Park; however, Buena Park and Ana-
heim residents would have the privilege of using the Bookmobile services of
both cities.
Mr. Griffith further stated that if subject request is approved
and proved successful, he hoped it would lead to other cooperative programs
and result in cost savings through combined programs.
71-573
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 14~ 1971~ 1:30 P.M
Councilman Roth expressed approval of the proposal and stated he
hoped such a program might also be possible between Anaheim and Orange in
serving the future Anaheim Hills conmmnity, possibly to the extent of jointly
constructing a library building.
Mr. Griffith advised such programs would be the ultimate goal if the
proposed one proved successful.
He further advised that members of the Buena Park Library District
and Anaheim Library Board agreed the proposed cooperative program would not
require any additional employees, and that the first year of such a program
should balance out and be non-cost; however, if it did not balance out, other
terms of compensation, services, etc., would be necessary.
Mr. Murdoch advised he had had an opportunity to study this proposal
in general terms only; however, there was discussion of such a program at the
joint City Council and Library Board meeting, and it was decided the Library
Director and Board of Trustees should investigate further. He added that he
believed this type of program would be advisable if it is, in fact, a trade-off
so that there are no additional expenses to either party, as appears to be the
case in subject proposal.
Mr. Griffith advised that the proposed program would be on an in-
formal basis that could be terminated at any time by either party.
On motion by Councilman Thom, seconded by Councilman Pebley, the
Library Department and Library Board were authorized to proceed and implement
the program as outlined on a trial basis. MOTION CARRIED.
CITY OF ORANGE PROPOSAL - VILLAREAL DRIVE.: Report of the City Engineer regarding
the proposal by the City of Orange to make a portion of Villareal Drive a one-
way street was submitted, reco~mnending correspondence be sent to the City of
Orange in protest to the proposal and recommending against their proposed action.
Traffic Engineer Edward Granzow advised that this proposal evidently
was prompted by excessive speed of small cars from Mmrywood School traveling
down the hill, one of which missed the curve and crashed, and, in his opinion,
the situation should be handled by the Police Department rather than making
Villareal Drive a one-way street and placing an undue traffic burden on Anaheim.
On motion by Councilman Roth, seconded by Councilman Pebley, the
Mayor was authorized to sign a letter of protest as recommended by the City
Engineer. MOTION CARRIED.

CONVENTION CENTER EXPANSION: Mr. Murdoch reported that the architect for the pro-
posed Convention Center expansion cannot proceed with completion of the plans
until he received instructions from the Community Center Authority as to what
the design now shall include since his first estimated cost was substantially
higher than the budget approved by the Conm~anity Center Authority, High School
District and City Council.
He added that in the architect's original estimate he had included
some things which are not really necessary to provide the kind of service de-
sired; also, that a review has been made to determine any possible reductions
that could be made in the proposed additional facilities to stay within the
budget figure.
With regard to reducing, some of the demands, Mr. Murdoch stated
that there is flexibility in proposed land acquisition for the facility and
in parking lot improvement.

~ity Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 14, 1971, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Mmrdoch further advised that determination also should be made
as to the method of handling the bond reserve and interest during construc-
tion of the additional facility, although the bond r~serve portion probably
could be handled out of the first 5-year payments on an approximately il-
payment basis since no payment can be made on the principal prior to August
1977. '
Stadium and Convention Center Director Thomas F. Liegler advised
that in his preliminary estimate the architect had considered 40,000-square
feet of lobby, concession stands, restrooms, storage space, etc., as being
in addition to the 150,000-square feet of addition projected, whereas the
original intent was to include those things in the 150,000-square feet, also,
the architect had included a fully-equipped kitchen, and it is felt the ex-
isting kitchen facilities will adequately serve the additional rooms.
Another thing the architect had included in his preliminary esti-
mate was landscaping, and Mr. Liegler stated he felt this could be handled
by the Convention Center staff, with some possible assistance from the Parks
Division. Also, he felt extra tables and chairs, equipment and carpeting
should be purchased out of current revenues rather than the bond issue, thus
this item could be eliminated from the architect's preliminary figures.
Mr. Liegler advised that his staff, along with the Visitor and Con-
vention Bureau staff, recently had re-analyzed the specific demands for the
proposed addition and had determined that the original estimated needs for
meeting rooms could be reduced from 50,000 square feet to 35,000 square feet,
and with the proposed exhibition hall including rest rooms, etc., for a total
of about 3,000 to 4,000 square feet in the projected 100,000 square feet, this
would result in a slightly smaller size addition than originally projected - that
is, from 150,000 to 135,000 square feet; however, this should keep the cost of
the addition within the $8,000,000.00 originally decided upon.
On motion by Councilman Stephenson, seconded by Councilman Roth,
the Community Center Authority was authorized to instruct the architect to
proceed on the basis of the revised requirements as outlined. MOTION CARRIED.
PROPOSED EXCHANGE OF PARK PROPERTY - ORANGE UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT: Mr. Ma~rdoch
advised that Parks and Recreation had held discussions with the Orange Uni-
fied High School District relative to a possible exchange of some property
the City will receive under the agreement with Anaheim Hills, located on the
east side of Imperial Highway, between Santa Ana Canyon Road and Nohl Ranch
Road, with some property adjacent to a proposed high school in that area that
would be used for recreational purposes.
Park and Recreation Director John Collier stated that in order to
have the proper amount of acreage for park purposes in proportion to popula-
tion in this area, the plan for the past 5 years had been to secure approxi-
mately 23 acres adjacent to the proposed high school. He added that the plans
for the school indicate a T.M.R. (trainable mentally retarded) school and
parking lot to be constructed on part of the property that would be owned
by the City; thus, the proposal was to exchange that property by transfer
and fee title for a long-term lease for property on the west side of the
school which then would be used for a neighborhood park of approximately
4½ acres in size.
Mr. Murdoch stated that the proposed agreement would be that the
Orange Unified School District would convoy that property to the City on a
long-term lease so that they could do the construction, since a school dist-
rict, by law, cannot build on any property not owned by them in fee.
Mr. Collier added that the School District already was budgeted
to provide the sprinkling system around whatever design the City adopted for
the park and also do the grading.
By general Council consent, the Administrative and Parks and Rec-
reation Staff were directed to investigate the possibilities and results of
such an exchange of property, and the City Attorney's office was instructed
to prepare the necessary documents for consideration.
