CONTINUED PUBLIC ~EARING - AMENDMENT TO TITLE 18~ ZONING: To consider amendments to'
Title 18, Chapter 18.28, R-2 Multiple-Family Residential Zone, Section 18.28.050,
Site Development Standards, Subsection (10) Off-Street Parking Requirements.
Continued from the meetings of November 27, 1973 and June 2, 1974, to
allow time for the hearing on the transportation element of the Environmental
Protection Agency regulations and, further, to allow time to consider various
changes occurring in transportation and parking habits.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC74-133,
recos,-ended the proposed amendment to Title 18, Chapter 18.28, Section 18.28.050
as set forth within said resolution, which provides for 1.5 spaces per unit with
one or less bedrooms, and 2.0 spaces for units with two or more bedrooms.
Hr. Don HcDaniel, Planning Supervisor, reported that the continuances
aS indicated were primarily to give Staff an opportunity to review more thoroughly
the proposed Environmental Protection Agency's requirements. He advised that
prior to bringing this proposed amendment of the Anaheim Municipal Code back to
the City Planning Counission, it was ascertained that the E.P.A. transportation
control plans as they relate to parking facilities for multiple and single family
residential developments were deleted. The E;P.A. still plans to regulate
parking and require permits for commercial, industrial and institutional parking
facilities, however, they are no longer proposing regulatory practices for
multiple and single family residential parking.
Councilman Pebley entered the Council Chambers (1:40 P.M.).
Hr. HcDaniel noted that on visual inspection of most existing multiple
family residential developments it is apparent that there are inadequacies in
the current standards which provide for: 1.50 spaces per unit with two or less
bedrooms; 2.25 spaces per unit with 3 or more bedrooms,

City Hall. A-_s_heim. California- COUNCIL MrNUT~.S- July 9. 1974, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. McDantel explained the survey which was taken by mailing of a
questionnaire to 404 apartment units to which there were 137 responses, or
34%. The survey questionnaire indicated three areas which may account for
the congestion currently seen on the streets surrounding apartment complexes;
No. 1. Most of the existing complexes were developed under the old
parking standards - 1.25 parking stalls per unit regardless of size of unit;
No. 2. Many were built with variances from the parking requirements
contained in the Code;
No. 3. The questionnaire indicated that the respondents considered
parking adequate for themselves but inadequate for guests.
Mr. McDaniel advised that the net effect of the change proposed by
the City Planning Coe~nission would be to increase the parking spaces in a
multiple-family complex by approximately one'stall for each five units. In
connection with this recommendation, Mr. McDantel reported that they received
comments from three apartment developers, architects in this field and from
Anaheim Hills, Inc., who, although not in objection to it, expressed concern
that the changes in parking standards recommended would not have the effect
which is anticipated, due to the fact that there may be an increase in the
number of three bedroom apartment units in the near future. As housing becomes
more expensive and there is less available, it is anticipated that more families
will be moving into apartment complexes and for this reason they considered that
a three bedroom unit may require more parking than a two bedroom unit.
Councilwoman Kaywood inquired whether the parking standards as recom-
mended by the City Planning Commission would provide for guest parking, to
which Mr. McDaniel stated that the amendment does not provide for specific
stall or areas to be designated as guest parking.
Councilwoman Kaywood remarked that judging from the bumper to bumper
parked car situation around most multiple-family apartment complexes, the of~
street parking is not adequate. She also was of the opinion that the three '
bedroom units require more parking.
This being a public hearing, Mayor Pro Tem Seymour asked if anyone
wished to address the Council in favor or opposition to the proposed amendment
to Title 18 regarding off-street parking requirements; and there being no
response, declared the hearing closed.
Councilman Sneegas offered the ordinance as proposed and recommended
by the City Planning Commission for first reading.
Councilwoman Kaywood suggested that the proposed ordinance be intro-
duced with an amendment to include the 2.25 parking stall requirement.per
three bedroom unit or to contain some provision for parking which would be
proportionate to the number of three bedroom units per complex.
Councilman Seymour concurred with Councilwoman Kaywood, noting that
he also feels that with the increasing costs of con.~Cruction, larger apartments
will be developed to meet the needs of younger and expanding families and that
he too would prefer to see a parking standard for three bedroom units which
takes this into consideration.
Councilman Sneegas advised that he was not convinced that the on-
street parking situation is the result of insufficient parking spaces as much
as it is Caused by people who would rather park in the street than use the
space assigned them.
Councilman Pebley inquired as to how the proposed parking standards
would compare with those in neighboring cities, to which Mr. HcDaniel explained
the City of Yorba Linda requires three stalls per unit regardless of the number
of bedrooms and Irvtne, on the other hand, requires 1.3 stalls per unit for
bachelor and one bedroom apartments and 1.8 stalls for three or more bedrooms.
All other cities surveyed fall in between this range. He noted that the pro-
posed amendment would place the City of Anaheim's requirements somewhere in
the middle of this range.
Councilwoman Kaywood proposed that the ordinance be amended to re-
quire 2.25 spaces for units with three bedrooms or more.

City H~l%,. An. aheim, California- COUNCIL MINUTES- July 9. 1974. 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Sneegas did not wish to amend the ordinance as offered
for first reading.
Council discussion ensued and it was apparent that the Council
Members present were divided on the issue and therefore, on motion by Council-
woman Kaywood, seconded by Councilman Seymour, the decision on amendment to
Title 18, Chapter 18o28, Section 18.28.050, Site Development Standards, sub-
section (10) Off-Street Parking Requirements, was held over for a full Council.
MOTION CARRIED.
PUBLIC H~IN~- A~ NO, 73-12A: In accordance with application filed by

Resolution No. 74~-293, duly published in the Anaheim Bulletin and notices
thereof posted in accordance with law.
Report of the City Engineer was submitted recommending approval of
said abandonment request.
Mayor Pro Tem Seymour asked if anyone wished to address the Council;
there being no response, declared the hearing closed.

cG~r~]3~D FLNAL TRACT MAP NOS. 7946. 7947 and 7948: ARC Development Corporation,
Developer; property is located at the northwest corner of Walnut Street and
Cerritos Avenue; each tract contains one R-3 zoned lot. (Reclassification
No. 73-74-10, Variance No. 2426).
Said final maps were continued from the meeting of June 18, 197~ to
allow the City Attorney sufficient time to investigate the legalities of pre-
venting any further development of the project and are submitted together with
reports from the City Engineer dated June 11, 1974 advising that these final
maps are technically correct and in substantial conformance with the tentative
maps previously approved by Council and recommending that final meps of tract
Nos. 7946, 7947 and 7948 be approved.
74- 687
City Hall. Anaheim. California- COUNCIL MINUTES- July 9. 1974. 1:30 P.M..
The City Clerk submitted correspondence from Mr. Dennis G. Tyler of
ILtndel & Anderson, 610 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, requesting that
the City Council take Judicial notice of satisfaction by the owner/developer
of tract Nos. 7946, 7947, 7948 of all applicable conditions imposed by the
City of Anaheim to development of said tracts and advising that the owner/
developer intends to make oral request for Judicial notice as well at the
Council meeting of July 9, 1974.
City Attorney Watts advised that City ordinance requires the City
Engineer to determine whether or not a final tract map is in compliance with
the tentative map as approved by the Council. In this particular situation,
Mr.. Watts noted that the City Engineer has made the determination that subject
tract maps are .in substantial compliance with the tentative maps, and with the
SubdivisionMap Act and local codes. Hr. Watts concluded, based on these
facts, that there is not only statutory authority in the Business and Pro-
fessions Code but case authority, i.e., Great Western Savings and Loan versus
the City of Los Anieles, which indicates that the Council's action at this
point is simply a ministerial duty. Therefore, he related that if Council
were to take actions other than approval of the final tract map, such'action
would be extremely difficult to defend in the event of litigation.
Mr. Watts further explained that in reviewing this matter the zoning
historywas also examined and the facts reveal that the City Council did in
April of 19:73 grant a one year extension to Reclassification No. 73-73-10 and
Variance Ho. 2426, which expired on March 19, 1974. The code provides that
once a Resolution of Intent to reclassify property has expired, it is null
and void and the applicant must once again commence reclassification proceed-
ing8. Since chis is the case, it would appear that while the final tract map
may be approved, there may not be zoning to permit development in accordance
with the tract map. This determination will have Co be made by Council. Hr.
Watts related that this statement reflects his conclusions on both matters
and offered to answer questions.
In answer to Councilwoman Kaywood, Mr. Watts advised that although
this may sound like a contradiction it is actually not, as the zoning allows
the use of the land for a particular purpose, and a tract map indicates the
implementation of that particular use.
Hayor Pro-Ten~recognizedMr. Dennis Tyler, Attorney, Kindel &
Anderson, representing the owner/developer, who inquired first if this was
being opened to public hearing, to which he received a negative reply.
Mr. Tyler advised ChaC his remarks would be limited to the tract
maps at this point, and that it is his position that these final maps (Tract
Nos. 7946, 7947, 7948) do substantially comply with the approved tentative
m~ps and that there are letters in the files of the City of Anaheim from the
City Engineering Division which indicate Chat all conditions have been met
and that the maps comply with all ordinances and with the SubdivisionMap Act
and are properly before the Council at this time, and therefore, should be
approved.
Mayor Pro-TemSeymour called for any comments or action from the
Council members, and hearing none, related his views.
Councilman Seymour indicated that his opinion regards the City
Attorney's report is that it demonstrates clearly chat approval of final tract
maps is a ministerial function of the City Council, and if no action at all is
taken by the Council on a final map within the trine period which has been
extemded, the map as it conforms to the tentative is deemed approved, without
fu~ther.Council action.
Hr. Watts advised that this was correct.
Councilman Seymour stated that it is also clear from the City
Attorney's report thac the reclassification and variance approved on the
property have expired as of March 19, 1974 and he personally could see no
legal reason which would compel the City Council to approve an extension of
either the variance or reclassification to this project. He advised that he
74,-688
CitY Hal~, Ana~ei;~, ~alifornia- COIINCIL HINU~ES- July 9. 1974. 1:30 P.M.
is well aware of the possibilities of litigation which might be initiated by
the ARC Development Corporation regarding the vested rights question, however,
he felt in that event, that the lack of final approval or the readin~ of an
ordinance to rezone the property would leave the matter inconclusive and open to
adjudication and these actions have not yet taken place.
Councilman Seymour pointed out that this particular development is
contrary to other condomini,~ and planned residential developments throughout
the City because of its higher density at approximately 18 units to the acre,
whereas most of these type developments were built at 12 units t° the acre .
and the recently adopted condominitan ordinance places the density at 10 units
to the acre. Because of these facts, Councilman Seyamur remarked that if
there is anyway to circumvent construction of the project he would be in
favor of taking up 'that option. He further noted that this opportunity has
been afforded the Council, via the zoning expiration, although admittedly.this
is not a clear-cut method. He concluded that he would be willing to take a
position against extension of the zoning or variance and withholding approval
of the final tract ~aps, even though, as indicated previously, the final
maps would be deemed approved regardless.
Hr. Tyler stated that the variance and zoning petition are not before
the Council at this time. He indicated that he was not aware that these had
expired but that his opinion regarding that situation is that since the City
required and granted an extension of time to the tract maps that this would
entitle the developer to have zoning extended also for this same duxation. He
indicated that he considered every action of the City from the initiation of
Reclassification No. 72-73-10 and Variance No. 2426, to present, as increasing
ARC Development Corporation's vested rights and that he felt these rights are
now definitely established whether or not the zonins has expired. In this
regard he related that the Council had approved precise plans for development
(tiarch 12, 1974) as well as the tentative maps, and that all of the conditions
imposed upon the developer have been satisfied. He further noted that he has
submitted a letter to the City Attorney which indicated the substantial sums
of money spe~ in reliance on official actions of the City of Anaheim.
Hr. Tyler stated, although he was of the opinion that this is not the
appropriate time nor place for presentation of a vested rights argument, that
his client would have no alternative but to pursue their rights through litiga-
tion because of the large amounts of money already invested in the project as
a whole, by direct and indirect obligations.
Councilman Seymour explained to Hr. Tyler that because the tentative
map had been extended that does not constitute an extension of the zoning or
variance since these approvals are not contained within the tract.
Hr. Tyler advised that his position would be that because of the
procedures adopted and employed by the City of Anaheim, tract maps, variance
and reclassification petitions are dependent upon one another and because of
this interrelationship and dependency, any extension of the life of the tract
map would be an implied, if not expressed, extension of the reclassification
and variance.
Councilman Seymour pointed out that these are items which are acted
upon separately; that each variance and reclassification is either granted
or denied by separate resolution and tentative tract maps are approved
separately by motion.
Hr. Tyler replied that although approvals may occur at different
steps and stages, froma substantive standpoint they are a part of the same
review and approval within the development process. There is an interrela-
tionship and interdependence and he related that he feels extending the life
of one component extends the life of the other.
Councilwoman Kaln~ood questioned the wording used in the Engineer's
report concerning final maps, specifically referring to the words "technically
correct and in substantial conformance." She asked if this meant there may
be changes from the original approved tentative map.
74- 689
Gi~V ~-11. _i-ahetm. California- COUNCIL M~ _Fu~ES- July 9. 1974. 1:30 P.M..
City Engineer James Maddox replied that this terminolosy would re-
flect only very minor changes to the final map such as a sliiht variation of
a few degrees in boundaries or curvatures of roads which become evident on
the final survey. He indicated that a final map could deviate as many as 4
lots more or less in a 400-lot subdivision as this would not be considered
significant in a project of that size.
Councilman Pebley remarked that he felt if the developer could prove
that he installed certain improvements to the property (water, sewer lines,
etc.) of certain capacities, depending upon the density which was approved,
this would appear to him to be an important factor in his case for vested
rights.
Councilwoman ~ay~ood stated that a good living environment is not
obtainable, in her'opinion, with a density above 6 to 10 units to the acre.
She noted that in the past the Council has indicated Justification for higher
densities because they felt the prices of such units would be lower and within
the economic range of certain categories of people in need of this type of
housing. However, she indicated that subject condominium units currently cost
from $28,000 to $32,000 and there is an additional monthly maintenance fee.
She stated that there was no way that she could vote in favor of this particu-
lar project.
Councilman Sneegas stated that this particular property and project
have been the subject of numerous hearings and re-hearings and that many legal
means of halting or delaying it have been explored. He noted that the decision
was made more than one year ago and he would uphold that original decision by
moving that the final maps, Tract Nos. 7926, 7947 and 7948 be approved, as
reco~nended by the City Engineer, subject to approval of required bonds by the
City Attorney. Councilman Pebley seconded the motion.
On roll call vote requested by Councilman Seymour, the foregoing

tion to the .City Council. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion.
Prior to voting, Councilman Sneegas re-~rked that this would result
in a time delay which will drive the cost of the units in subject project
higher.

In answer to Councilman Seymour, the City Attorney advised that at
such time as there is a full Council any Council member who would desire to,
could renew either of these motions.
No further action was taken by the City Council at this time.
CERtIFiCATION O~ E.I.R. NO. 119: Submitted in compliance with condition of approval
for extenslon of time on Tentative Tract No. 7417 which was granted on
November 20, 1973 for a period of one year. Property is located between La
Palma Avenue and Esperanza Road, east of Imperial Highway.
Said E.I.R. was submitted for Council certification at the meeting
held May 7, 1974 and following discussion was referred back to the City
Planning Commission for further consideration and inclusion of additional
information regarding noise levels (railroad) and the proposals for attenua-
tion thereof.
The City Planning Commission at their meeting of June 24, 1974,
received a supplemental report regarding noise assessment and necessary
miti~ationmmasures, and reconsnends that the Council certify E.I.R. No. 119,
and said supplemental material, as being in compliance with the California
Environmental Quality Act and City Guidelines.
Councilman Sneegas moved that said E.I.R. be certified as recommended
by the City Planning Co~nission.
Prior to any further action on the foregoing motion, Councilwoman
Kaywood indicated she wished to co~ent on the E.I.R. She noted that this
particular tract map was originally approved as a tentative map in 1971 and
subsequently has been granted two one-year extensions, the last being on
November 20, 1973. She referred to previous explanation given by the City
Manager regarding extensions of time to tract maps and remarked that she
could not see how this particular tract could have been extended up to this
time.
Councilwoman Kaywood remarked that in her opinion the noise situation
has not been solved and that it would not be possible to use a home when a train
passes every 48 minutes; that section 1.03 of E.I.R. No. 119, alth~Jgh it refers
to the traffic bottleneck which would be created at Imperial and La Palms and
the solutions proposed for same, does not indicate whether either of these solu-
tions has been approved nor at whose expense they would be built; that the
RS-5000 lot sizes are not large enough for swimming pools as indicated in said
E.I.I.; that no information is given regarding the vibration levels; that no
mention is made of what is proposed on the northernmost 100 feet of the prop-
erty at which the noise levels would not be mitigated within the acceptable
range; that the drainage of the property is not resolved in that the E.I.R. .
does not ~pecify at whose expense the necessary storm drain will be built;
that alternatives to the proposed development were not thoroughly discussed
since the report merely states the property is unproductive ,and does not
mention that there are productive citrus groves in the in~ediate area.
Mr. Cal Queyrel, Anacal Engineering Company, representing the
Developer of Tract No. 7417, was recognized by the Mayor Pro Temand advised
in response to Councilwoman Kaywood's comments, that the noise level within
the proposed dwelling units would be reduced to below 45 decibels and that a
block wall is proposed adjacent to the railroad tracks which will reduce the
noise volume considerably. In addition, there will be a 100 foot setback
from the railroad track and there will be a grade differentiation between the
p~d levels and the railroad track all of which should contribute towards
mitigation of the sound level. He contended that the cause of the anttctl~ted
congestion at Imperial and La Palma could not be attributed to this tract but
to the development of a park, and the overcrossing to relieve this situation
at l~irmomt will most likely bea Joint City/County project. He reported that
there are also plans to extend La Palma Avenue easterly to Join with the Weir
Canyon project.

City Hal~. A~_,~hei~, California- COUNCIL MINUTES- July 9, 19.74. 1:30 P.M.-
Councilwoman Kaywood reiterated that she would not consider an 86
decibel noise level in the rear yards an acceptable living environment and,
further, could not see how this noise level would be reduced to the accept-
able 60-65 decibel for outdoors.
Mr. Queyrel related that sound level readings taken on the property
in its present state could not be applied with accuracy to the property as
it would be in its developed state. Further, he stated that the train noise
is similar in type to freeway noise but not as constant.
At the conclusion of discussion, Councilman Sneegas restated his
motion as follows: that E.I.R. No. 119 and Supplemental Noise Impact Report,
having been reviewed by the City Staff and recon~nended by the City Planning
Con~nission. to be in compliance with City and State Guidelines and the State
of California Environmental Quality Act, the City Council acting upon such
information and belief does hereby certify that E.I.R. 119 and Supplement
is in compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act and City and
State Guidelines. Councilman Pebley seconded the motion. To this motion
Councilwoman Kaywood voted "no". MOTION CARRIED.
· EQUE~T - A~,~ND~_._.~T TO CONDITION- TRACT NO, 7419 - FREEWAY NQ~SE BARRIER (E.I.R.
NO, 119): The City Clerk submitted request from the American National Housing
Corporation for amendment to one of the conditions of approval of recorded
Tract No. 7419, which requires the construction of a 6-foot berm with 6-foot
wall as a freeway noise barrier along the northerly lot lines of said tract.
The developer wishes, instead, to construct a 2-foot berm and 6-foot wall.
Councilman Seymour moved that said request be denied. Councilwoman
Kaywood seconded the motion.
Mr. L. Buffington, 10532 Orangegrove Circle, Villa Park, representing
American National Housing Corporation, advised that they made this request in
an effort to accomplish the sound attenuation level required by the City and
at the same time avoid creating what would appear to be a maintenance problem.
He explained that the condition in question requires a 6-foot berm with 6-foot
wall on top of same; however, the pad level for the homes is already 6 feet
above the existing grade so that adding the 6-foot berm would create
a 12 foot slope which would physically be located inside the property lines
of each of the lots and become the maintenance responsibility of the individ-
ual ,homeowners. He advised that they do intend to install gates so that the
slope would be accessible to the homeowner and that these slopes would be
landscaped and sprinklers installed. However, it has been proven from pre-
vious experience with this situation that the homeowner is not likely to
provide the necessary maintenance for a steep, 1% to 1 - 12-foot slope. He
conceded that the 6-foot berm and 6-foot wall will produce the desired re-
' duction in sound level, however, he pointed out that this is just one method
of attaining this level. They have employed acoustical engineers who
have devised alternate methods and they would like to be able to use which-
ever of these would be most appropriate for the site, however, they are tied
by this condition to providing a 6-foot berm and 6-foot wall, which the City
Staff seems to feel is the only solution to the problem.
Mr. McDaniel responded that this condition was specifically imposed
by the Council because it was recommended by the acoustical consultant for
this particular company as necessary in order to attain the 65 dba sound
level in the rear yards. He agreed that there are many design features
which might be built into a dwelling unit itself to reduce the interior
sound level, but that insofar as the rear yards are concerned, a 12-foot
barrier would be necessary in order to achieve 65 dba.
Mr. Buffington contended that it is difficult to establish what a
sound level will actually be when the homes are constructed and outlined all
of the factors which must be taken into consideration, pointing out that the
freeway grade level is lower than the lot pads. He used drawings prepared
by Toups En~ineeringwhich plot the actual location of the proposed homes
to i11ustrate the point on these homes at which the freeway line of site
intersects the buildin$. He reiterated that he would appreciate more flexi-
bility than the current condition allows and that he was certain, with these
74-692
City Hall, Anaheim. California - ¢OtINCILMINUTES - July 9. 1974. 1:30 P.M.
other methods, the sound engineer could still achieve the necessary attenua-
tion and remain within the parameters set forth. He indicated that his
primary concern would be reduction in size of the slope itself.. He stated
that the subject condition was arbitrarily imposed by Council without
knowledge of what other topographical conditions which might affect the
sound situations are.
Council discussion ensued during which Councilwoman Kaywood su~.sested
that the slope maintenance problem be handled by forming a homeowner's associa-
tion which would, in turn, contract a professional company to m~intain the
slopes, to which Mr. Buffington replied that this particular tract is alr~ay
recorded and it would be difficult to take that approach at this time. Council-
man Seymour inquired whether Staff would have any objection to permittinga
12-foot barrier, composed of other than a 6-foot berm and 6-foot wall, to which
they indicated no objection.
Councilman Seymour explained that as far as he views the situation
the City agreed to a 12-foot barrier for sound reduction, and since the results
of other methods to 'achieve the necessary sound reduction are doubtful, he per-
