Rosalie Abrams, 2549 Runion Place, Anaheim, on behalf of the Orange County Chapter of the National Women's Politic~l Caucus, e~pressed concern over the replacement of Miri~mEay~oodon the Ci~yPlanni~ Coemission.

Hrs. Abrmns thereupon related the past civic accomplishments of Hrs. Kayvood end reported she ·trended every work session ·nd meeting of the Planning Co~uission; her voting record indicated she wes not a descending controversial figure in ·ny way ·nd that harmonious working relationships prevailed.

She recognized the Cotmcil's prerogative to appoint or remove ·ny commissioner, however, felt C~issioner Kaywood's fine record of service to the City would warrant her. reappointment and not her removal. Her removal without prior notification was tantamount to a slur on her reputation as a civic leader and subjects the women of Anaheim to taxation without repre- sentation. Hrs. Abrams advised that if a satisfactory explanation was not f~th- comin8 they ~uld determine that the decision was based only on her being a Hayor Dutton asked Mrs. Abrams if she had Miriam Kay~ood's permission to m~ke · public inquiry.

Mrs. Abrams stated she believed Hrs. Kay~od would support the request and further stated the issue was not necessarily Miriam Kaywood, ·s such, but the fact she is represent·rive of the fact that there are not ~_~n in decision- making positions in the City of Anaheim. Mayor Dutton advised that what Mrs. Abrams is requesting is for the City Council to very possiblynmke resmrks that might tend to degrade or demean the character of Miriam KaNood ·nd that he was certain no one on the Council ~uld do that. Noted also, was the fact that at the 1·st Mtmicip·l Election, four women appeared on the ballo~ for the office of Co~cilmu and none ~re elected. Councilmn Th~ advised th·t in his opinion the re·son ex-Conmissioner Kaywoodwas remo~dwas bec·use shew as very candid, txuithful and politically embarrassing to · few of the Councilnmn. Miriam Kaywood (from the audience) stated she has already been degraded and that she would like to know what the reasons are. Mrs. Abrams relinquished the floor to Hrs. Kaywood, who declined to further address the Council. There being no further explanation, Mrs. Abrams advised they would have to assmae the reason was as expressed by Councilman Thom. Hrs. Mary Dinndorf, representing the Santa Arm Canyon Improvement Association, Inc., requested the Cotmcil to reinstate HiriamKayw~d on the City Planning C~ission, being of the opinion that she was very capable, intelligent ·nd impartial in all decisions and is not motivated by political pressure. Hrs. Joanne Esteve, 2850 East Standis~ asked if MiriamKay~eood's con- concern for ecology had any basis in her removal. Mrs. J~s L.

IIfI~[~OI~ITAI~ ~ PROJECT - CITY PARTICIPATION: .Mr. Gordon Hoyt, Utilities Direc- tor, reported on the creation of the Intarmountain Power Project for the pur- pose of obt&inin$ reliable, Iow-cost, firm electric power supply. He sdvfso,t 73-592 City Hallm Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - July 17~ 1973~ 1:30 P,M. that ten utilities, including the City of An·heim, are currently represented on · Steering Committee of which he has been elected Vice-Chairman. Three potential generating pl·ntar, eas in Utah ·nd Western Colorado have been inspected and the Steering Co~nittee, at their June 21, 1973 meeting, agreed to proceed with feasibility studies in the development of a coal-fired steam electric generating plant on one or more of the three areas. Mr. Hoyt further reported that ·t the June 21st meeting, it w·s determined that each of the participants ·dy·ncc a $5,000.00, non-refund·bls initial contribution; ·ny additional costs to be subsequently ·uthorized. He thereupon reconnnended the City's participation in .this initial study. Further discussion was held and ·s to the estimated construction costs, Mr. Hoyt advised, depending on the size of the pl·nt, the cost could run into hundreds of millions of dollars; · million dollars or more could be required to get the project to the environment·l imp·ct report stage. Councilman Thom expressed concern as to where such'funds would come, and Mr. Hoyt referred to the 1969 R. W. Beck Report, noting such Joint partici- pation with other utilities in generating ·nd tr·nsmission plans from · period of 1973 to 1991 could realize · savings of $103 million; this projection was based on the then Edison Company rates for wholesale power. This, of course, would require · si~nificant capital investment in the facilities and would be supplanting the Southern C·liforni· Edison Company as the City's power supplier; however, we would be working with the Southern California Edison Compan~ as the City presently is, by participating in the licensing hearings 'of the San Onofre Units 2 and 3 Projects, which he estimated will cost in the neighborhood of $15 to $20 million. Mr. Hoyt stated the Council should not be under the ~delusion that the initial $5,000.00 in the Intermountmin Po~er Project would be the only costs; the costs will be considerable, but so will be the g·ins. Councilman Thom stated his only concern %ms the possibility of investing $1% million up to the time of a bond issue and the failure of the bond issue · fret expending this amount of funds. At the conclusion of the discussion, on motion by Councilman Stephenson, seconded by Councilman Dutton, City participation in the Intermountain Po~er Project initial feasibility studies was approved and advance of $5,000.00 was authorized.

SO~ CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY - RA~E INCREASE: Councilman Th°m made reference to a newspaper article regarding a press release issued by the.City appearing in the AnaheimBulletin July 6, 1973, concerning a 52 percent increase in ' Edison Company rates, stating that the article contained a couple of hard state- manta, such as calling for "close examination of Edison 'Company investment practices" and that "customers shouldn't have to pay for poor in~estment deci- sions by the Edison management", and in the interest of harmony and fair play, thereupon introduced Mr. Edward Meiers , Jr., Vice Yresident of the Southern California Edison Company, to address the Council regarding this newspaper article. Mr. Meiers explained that the Southern California Edison Company operates under two Commissions, one being the Public Utilities C~ission and the other being the Federal Power C~ission, and that on May 8, 1973, rate increases for the resale customers, which includes Anaheim, were filed with the Federal Power C~ission, totaling an average of 50.9 percent increase for the total class of "resales" and 52.2 percent specifically for the City of Anaheim. He reported that the very large increase is severe, but a necessary stakes other customers have been sharing the increasing costs for some period of time. Prior to 1964, resale customers, such as Anaheim and large industrial customers, were thought to be within the regulatory Jurisdiction of the California Public Utilities C~ission. Since 1964, however, the resale rate regulations have been under the Jurisdiction of the Federal Power C~lssion. Since 1968, rates for large industrial customers under the California Public Utilities Commission have increased approximately 52 percent and another general rate increase is pending which will increase these Charges to approxi- mately ,64 percent higher than they were in 1968. l~hereas, resale customers have experienced only one increase of 9 percent which was effective November 14, 1971. Mr. Meiers advised that the current request for increase in resale rates seek to bring these rates up'to the level of the charges for coe~arable industrial power service. He further reported their costs have skyrocketed, and they areseverely curtailed in the availability of natural gas for their basin generating station; in addition to increased costs for labor, materials and capital. Be explained that the rate Anaheimpays is based on the 1969 cost and after the current increase, Anaheim can expect an additional increase in order to bring cost sharing into line with their other cust~ners. Be stated also these are difficult and confusing times in the energy bustnasswith fuel oil shortages~and future of capacity shortages, and all must seek public understanding and support, and urged the 'Coundil to consider 73-598 City Hall~. A,,naheim, California. = COUNCIL MI ,NU~,,,T/.$ ~- July 17~, 1973,11:30 the fact that emotional harassment viii not help either Anaheim or the Edison Company along the already rocky path of expanding the mutual capability of supplying electricity to both of their customers. Public Utilities Director Gordon Hoyt stated that the City is engaged in a very serious litigation with the Edison Company, and they are private enterprise, not a free-enterprise, and the rates they charged are based on complicated means of allocating costs among customers and based on decisions which they make, certain costs are borne by their stockholders and other costs are borne by their customers. Mr. Ho~t further stated that the press release which he approved was based on the City's intervention, and it is logical, normal and a very proper contention of the customers of any regulated utility to raise ~these kinds of questions, inasmuch as they pay the bill for decisions made by a regulated com- p&ny. Customers of the City 'of Anaheim pay for management decisions made by the City, and have a right to inquire into them during any rate proceedings. Mr. Hoyt advised there was nothing personal and no emotional harassment was intended to anyone, however, the City intends to look into the dealings of the Edison Company which is right and proper to do and not accept at face value any statements made. In conclusion, Mr. Hoyt reported that this will be a long litigation, and it is his opinion the questions raised in the City'~'"intervention are quite proper to be raised in the situation in which the City finds itself; the City is not dealing in a free-enterprise situation where the competition of the market sets the value of the product. Mr. Jack Calhoun, resident and businessman of Anaheim for many years addressed theCouncil and stated that as a small businessman, he would like to feel he is being represented in his efforts to keep his costs down so that he also can make a legitimate profit, and when there is talk of raising his rates more than 52 percent with another certain raise later, he becomes alarmed because he is aware of the fact that he cannot raise his charges 52 percent. Mr. Calhoun expressed gratitude that the small businessman has a Utility Director, Mr. Hoyt, and the apparent majority of the City Council pro- tecting their interests.
