City Hall~ ~Lm~ California - COUNCIL MI,NDTES - ,August 14~ 1973! 1:30 P.M.
The Mayor asked if the property owner was present and'wished to
dress the Council.
Mr. Paul Schlue, 2758 Parkdale Drive, Anaheim, stated that he has sold
a portion of subject property to the City of Anaheim for right-of-way purposes
with th~ understanding that the City would widen the street. Now it appears he
is goin~ to have to widen the street and contended that even if this is City
policy it is not equitable and if the City pursues this action he will have no
recourse but to go to the Courts.
Mr. John Dawson, Assistant City Attorney, related the history of events
in connection with the current issue. He advisedthat for some time (initial
request was made on September 29, 1966) the City had requested and attempted to
obtain voluntary dedication for the purpose of widening and improving Kraemer
Boulevard. This approach having failed, a suit of condemnation was filed which
subsequently was settled out of court for a figure certain being approximately
$1,900 for right-of-way plus an additional $150 to the property owner for the
removal of a tree.
Mr. Dawson remarked that the entire legal proceeding was handled in a
normal manner, but settled out of court for a sum, which was apparently satis-
factory to Mr. Schlue at the time. No statement of any sort was made at this
time to the effect that the City would assume the cost of street improvements;
that offer was made at the time that voluntary dedication was requested. He ad-
vised that this has been and still is, to his knowledge, the City's policy in
these matters, i.e., to request voluntary dedication, and in return the City pays
for street improvement; if dedication cannot be obtained then condemnation pro-
ceedtngs are initiated.
Mr. Dawson advised, for Council information, that Chapter 27 of the
Streets and Highways Code, Improvement Act of 1911 provides that ~henever 50% of
a street is improved, upon demand by the City the property owner of an unimproved
portion can be required to install the improvements. If the property owner fails
to comply by installing said improvements within 60 days from receipt of notifi-
cation, following public hearing, the City may proceed to install the improve-
ments and the cost thereof, including incidental expenses placed as an assessment
upon the real property in question. He further counseled that there has been a
change in the 1911 Act to the extent that if, in the opinion of the City Council,
the improvement is necessary, the requirement that 50% of the remainder of the
street be prevlously improved, no longer applies.
Mr. Schlue corrected'the figures given by Mr. Dawson as $1,800 for the
property and $100 for tree removal and contended that he would never have agreed
to accept the total sum of $1,900 if he knew that he would be required to assume
the cost of installation of street improVements, estimated to be $3,000.
Councilman Pebley informed Mr. Schlue that according to the policy that
has been in effect for some 20 years if he would have dedicated the land, the
City would have installed the improvements. He referred to Ball Road street im-
provements as an example and noted that subsequent to the street improvement,
adjacent properties usually increase in value.
Mr. Schlue remarked that the City of Anaheim is the only city which has
ever attempted to obtain from him a voluntary dedication of land. All other
cities with which he has had dealings have offered to pay for the rights-of-way
required and therefore this is not a co,non policy in his opinion.
Councilman Thom was of the opinion that the usual policy of most cities
is to ask for dedication of the right-of-way in exchange for Street t~provements.
Mr. Schlue advised that he had offered to give the land required by
the City if the City would in return deed to him a like amount of City property
at the rear property line, and this offer was declined.
Councilman Pebley in recapping the situation ascertained from the City
Engineer that the estimated cost for street improvements along the 75-foot front-
age of Nr. Schlue's property is $3,000; that previous offer had been made to him
City Hal!, {~naheim, California - COUNCIL MINFI~S - Au~vst l&i, !9~3, 1=30 P.M.
to install these improvements in return for dedication Of the property, ~hich
was rejected; and that Hr. Schlue elected to accept $1,900 total payment for
the property. In his opinion this was the result of a poor business Judsement.
Councilman Sneesas referred to the fact that one of the requirements
for chan~e in zone. is the installation of full street improvements, and ~hen
a construction company builds a tract of homes, the costs for street improve-
manes are passed on to the eventual property ovners, so that in all cases the
property owners have paid for the street improvements. He remarked that this
must be the case othez3eise taxes would have to be increased to pay for same.
He further noted that the cost of the street improvements in 1966 was most
likely not as high as $3,000.
Mr. Schlue advised that the City acquired the property in 1971 and
nothing was said about him bein~ required to put in. street improvements when
the price for the property was agreed upon in 1970.
City Engineer James Haddox read a copy of the letter dated
September 29, 1966 addressed to Mr. Paul Schlue at 1313 Oak Avenue, Xanhattan
Beach, requestin~ dedication of the property and stating that' in return for
said dedication the City would bear all costs of engineering, grading, pavin~
and cleariu~ of the right-of-way for utilities that may exist.
Mr. Schlue admitted that he had received that letter, but 2hat he
had elected not to deed the ultimate right-of-way to the City as requested
since that was not his policy, but his pOlicy was to realize ~hat the property
was worth. He a~ain reiterated, durinS discussion, that the City's offer to
install the hnprovements was not restated to him, and no notice 'was given that
he would be required to bear the costs of improvesS the street at the time of
condemnation procedure.
Mr. Xaddox read a copy of the letter dated February 9, 1970 addressed
to Mr. Paul F. Schlue, 21~ West 182nd Street, Apartment 2, Torrance, the
fourth paragraph of which stated, "the City needs this dedication,.and the
improvements installed, to clear the traffic hazard at this location. If a
.property owner does not make a requested dedication, the .City.has the right to
condemn the area needed, in the public's interest, and then have the improve-
omnis installed at the property ernst's expanse." Mr. Xaddox advised that at
this time the risht-of-way requirement was reduced to · bare minimum of 25
feet, to allow curb and gutter, pover .line easement and no sidewalk.
Councilman sneegas pointed out to Mr. Schlue that he has benefitted
in increased property value from the City's policy of requiring the ultimate
right-of-way and also from the dedications made by other adjacent property
owners, vhich provided adequate street access enabling industrial development.
Nome he is b~ln~ requested to do nothing more than that which the other property
ovners have already done,
Considerable discussion ensued during which Mr. Schlue maintained' his
position that there was misrepresentation at the t~ne of the condemnation pro-
ceedinss in that he was not told, and had no awareness whatsoever, that the
City would require him to put the street improvements in and therefore the
situation is unfair. He advised that he intends to take action to block the
City from proceeding with f~nprovements.on the property In question.
At the request of the Hayer, the City EOAlneer again read. the appli-
cable paragraph from the letter of February 9, Lg.?0.
Hr. Schlue acknewlldsSe that he was aware of' this letter.
The Hayer asked if anyone else wished to address the Council relative
to the completion of street improvements fronting 1152 North Eraemer Boulevard~
there being no response, declared the hearing closed.

City H~I, ~aaheim, California - COt~CIL NINUTES - August 14~ 1973~ ~:.~0 P.M.~
Councilman Stephenson moved, that public hearing havin~ been duly
held in which an objection from the property owner was received, it be the find-
ing of the City Council that said objection be overruled. Councilman Pebley
seconded said motion. MOTION CARRIED.
In answer to Council inquiry, Mr. Dawson advised that the property
owner has a period of 60 days from the date of notification, to complete the
street improvements according to City sp~cifications.
JUNIQRAND S~NIOR.C,J)LF RATES -ANAHEIM. MIINICIPALCOLF COURSES: Request submitted by
Mr. James J. Mancini, 734 South Sherri11, regarding the establisfaaent of junior
and senior golf rates at AnaheimMunicipal and Anaheim Hills C, olf Courses, was
submitted for Council consideration together with reports from the City Attorney's
Office advising that the special golf rates proposed may be of questionable le-
gality,and from the Parks and Recreation Director recon~aending no change in pre-
sent policy.
Mr. Mancini presented a letter which outlined his proposal and several
moments were taken for Council to read and review same. (Said letter is on file
in office of the City Clerk.)
Mr. Mancini addressed the Council expressing his opinion that the two
municipal golf courses are not reaching their maximum potential in revenues. He
reported that there is a slack period between the hours of 1:00 and 4:30 p.m.
daily which he feels could well be utilized by junior and senior golfers. He
further reported that he has noted play is slow in the mornings. (Mr. Manctni's
letter p~poses that .junior high school age children and citizens over the age
of 62 be permitted to purchase a monthly ticket which would enable them to play
at reduced rates during these hours.. The suggested monthly rate for such a ticket
was $18. To offset the costs associated with printing and handling of these cards
it was recommended that an annual privilege card be required in order to qualify
for the monthly golf rate ticket, said privilege card to be issued at the City
golf courses, at $10 to $15 per year per member.)
Mr. Hancini pointed out that this proposal would increase the City's
revenues and at the same time al!ow those people who would like to play more often
but cannot afford to do so at current rates, to utilize the courses during non
peak hours. He estimates that if 140 players purchased the tickets at $18 per
month, the Ctty would realize an additional $2,520 in golfing revenues each month.
Councilman Pebley remarked that there is no way to determine that only
140 such special tickets will be. sold and presented the possibility that 500 tic-
kets are sold, in which case perhaps people who are willing to pay the regular
fee might not be able to get on the course or there will be a substantial number
of golfers wishing toplay at the reduced rate which could not be acco~nodated.
Mr. Mancini stated that before patronizing a golf course an individual
must first call and schedule a starting time. He further advised that he has
studied the situation carefully, through personal observation and contact and
would not estimate that many tickets would be sold, although he personally would
like to see more senior citizens become golfers as a result of this program.
Councilman Pebley asked what ages would be designated as Juniors and
remarked that he was not certain that the City could exclude high school or even
college age students on the basis of ability to pay.
Mr. Mancint rePlied that the reason his suggestion was made to extend
the reduced rates to children of Junior high school age and under is that the City
has been very generous in arranging tournaments for the high schools. He remarked
that they do not wish to exclude any group, but these two categories were sug,~ '
gested because it was known that these groups required assistance.
Nayor Dutton requested the City Attorney's opinion regardin~ the pro-
posal'. ~
73-655
City H&I[, Anaheim! California - COUNCIL MINUT~,S - August !4t 1973a 1:30 P.M.
Assistant City Attorney Alan Watts rePorted that in light of the fact
that the Federal and State governments are revising laws pertainin~ to discrim-
ination on the basis of age and sex, there is some question as to whether or not
these enactments would be applicable to this situation. In addition, Hr. Watts
continued,the greater concern of the City Attorney's Office in connection with
this proposal is whether or not it would be in conflict with the agreementwhfch
was entered in order to finance the Anaheim Hills Golf Course, under which an
operatin~ fund was established, for revenues from both courses. 'Among other
covenants, in connection with this fund, there exists a promise made by the City
not to take actton which wouldmateriaily affect said revenues adversely.
Mr. Watts felt that the objective under the proposal is'one withwhich
the City could agree but the means of accomplishment might present some diffi-
culties. He agreed that the City should strive to increase the total amount
of play on the courses as Hr. Mancini suggests, but.cautioned that if the City
is sellin~ reduced rate cards to senior citizens who would otherwise have paid
the full rate, the net effect would be a reduction in revenues. If the over-
a11 amount of play is increased that would be a different case.
Councilman Stephenson remarked that there are twilight rates available
currently at both golf courses.
Mr. Murdoch replied that the twilight fee is available after 3:00 p.m.
in the winter and 4:00 P.m. in the s~m~er. He suggested that a similar arrange-
ment could be employed during the hours mentioned by Mr. Mancini (1:00 to 4:30
p.m.). If these are determined to be "off hours", a special rate could be set
durin~ this time period which would be available to any person wtshing to play
at that time, and thereby no discrimination would exist. He further suggested
that either starting times or cash receipts be tabulated to confirm slow hours.
Mr. Mancini introduced Mr. Dell Kier who explained that the County of
Los Angeles has a senior rate, available to citizens over 65 years of age, by
which they charge $10 for a lifetime membership card which permits the citizen
to play any municiapl golf course within the county for $1. The only stipula-
tion is that they cannot make reservations to play, but must wait for openin~s.
This permits efficient use of the courses, allowing the senior, citizens to uti-
ltze them on slower days.
Councilman Thom expressed his opinion that the Los Angeles County
method.appears to be ideal. -~.
Councilman Pebiey voiced the opinion that if any discount is given it
should be made available to citizens of all ages and be on the basis of time,
similar to the twilight rates currently in force.
Councilman Dutton suggested that the matter be referred to the Parks
and Recreation Department to determine what the "slow time", or "off-hours" are
and to the City Attorney for:further consideration of the legal implications
with reports returned in one week.
At the conclusion of discu~sion, Mr. Mancint reported on much needed
repairs in the restroom facilities at Anaheim Municipal Golf Course.
~NT~T..~ PERMIT: Application filed by Mr. Anthony J. Bor~es, for entertainment

FRE~-~_~R STI~_~T INTERCHAI~E OF THE SANTA ANAFRE~W_~Y~ Mr. A1 Jacobs of J. D.
..... Shane end Company addressed the Council and advised .that the purpose of his re-
quest to appear is to urge the City Council to expedite the Freedman-Haster
Street Interchange Project. He advised that he was present at prior discussions
of this matter and was encouraged by Council's attitude, and their recognition
of its importance and urgency
Mr. Jacobs.proposed that the City Council direct that the City be ~e-
presented at the meeting of the state Highway Commission in Los Angeles.
November 14 and 15, 1973. In addition he suggested that the Chamber of Commerce
and Community Redevelopment Commission be invited to attend as well, as the pro-
Ject is a matter of interest to both of these groups.
Mayor Dutton requested a status report on the Freedman-Haster Street
Interchange Project from the City Engineer.
Mr. Maddox replied that the project is presently progrs~raed.for Fiscal
Year 197'7-78. He advised that he has met With Mr. Enutsen of the State Highway
Division recently and discussion of this particular project revealed that due to
the tight money situation, if anything, the project might be delayed. The only
possibility for earlier construction w~uld be by greater monetary participation
on the part of the City. Mr. Maddox reminded Council that the City's cost in
this project Currently is $650,000.
BOth Mr. Murdoch and Mr. Maddox concurred that the suggestion made by
Mr. Jacobs regarding City representation at the State Highway Commission meetings
was well taken and Mr. Maddox further advised that it is a good idea to have
elected officials present as well.
By general Council consent it was determined that the Council would be
represented at the State Highway Commission meeting November 14 and 15,' 1973 in
Los Angeles and that the Chamber of Cou~erce and Con~nunity Redevelopment Commis-
sion be encouraged to'attend.

redwood slats as ~ere specified in Condition No. 4 of Resolution No. PC73-157.
In addition, these are extremely difficult to obtain due to current shortages
in buildin~material.
Hr. Thompson reco~nended that the variance be set for public hearing
and in the interim period it could be brought before the Planning Commission
once again for possible revision of Condition No. 4 to allow slats of some other
suitable'material. He further reported that this delay will ~ork no hardship
on the Applicant.

Richard Oarabedian, 118 North Harbor Boulevard, dated August IO, 1973, vhich
expresses concern regardins inadequate parkins in the iemodiat'e area of subject

Hr. Thompson ansvered that the use had been originally approved in a
residential structure as a home occupation and it is difficult with residential
structures to meet all aspects of the Code. The Applicant proposes to operate
a real estate business from this location, vhile maintainin~ his residence to the
rear of the structure. He indicated at the Planning Conmission hearing that pri-
marily the business would be operated by him and his daughter vould be employed
part-time. One additional employee might be added but that is not contemplated
for some time.
Councilman Pebley asked if the Plannin~ Commission had stipulated in
the resolution granting the variance that only t~o employees ~ould be pemitted,
to vhich Nr. Thompson replied that there was ns. specific limit placed to that
effect but that the Applicant hadstipulated to this provision.
The Nayor reco~nized the Applicant, Nr. Barto, vho assured Council that
although a third employee was mentioned and discussed at the Planning Commission
hearing~ this was not considered advisable and he understood the variance was
granted with the stipulation that he and his daughter only vould operate the
business. He added that he intends to vacate the one residence adjacent to his
and retain only one tenant-occupied structure and that consequently five parking
spaces would be available.
l~r. Barto infot~ned Council that his business is conducted primarily on
veekends when there is parking available on the streets, however his clients
would most likely not use the street parking since he deals with only one client
at a time. He' advised that the reason he is requesting the. variance is that under
the home occupation permit he could not erect a sign nor have his daughter assist
him.
Following discussion, ~rith' the stipulation that there would be no more
than two operating the business, by general Council consent, no further action
was taken o~ Variance No. 2531.

No further action was taken by the City Council on the above listed

CITY PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION REGARDING PUBLIC HEARINGS FOR REVISED PLANS:
Recommendation made by the City Planning Cormnission at their meeting held
July 23, 1973, regarding public hearings for revised plans was submitted for
City Council consideration as follows:
a. In the event the Planning Commission denies a project and revised
plans are submitted between Planning CommisSion consideration and public hearing
before the Council, which appear to be better than that considered by the
Commission, the plans should be referred back to the Planning Commission before
the Council consider them.
b. Where significant changes have taken place in-the plans, whether
the petition was contested or not, these should be submitted to the Cormmission
to. determine whether a new public hearing should be set.
c. Where onlY. minor changes occur or where the petitioner has incor-
porated changes suggested by the Planning Commission, these need not be referred
back to the Commission for consideration.
The City Council having reviewed this recommendation, on motion by
Councilman Thom, seconded by Coun¢ilman-Stephenson, accepted the City Planning
Commission recommendation and adopted~ame as the policy of.the Council. MOTION
CARRIED.
REqUeST - TEMPORARY AUTOMOBILE STORAGE IN THE M-1 ZONE: (Previously discussed
July 31, 1973. Report from Development Services Department dated August 14,
1973 was also submitted for Council information.) Mr. Ralph J. Carrel, Attorney
for Mr. Frank Stephan, Pacific Coast Adjusters, addressed the Council and re-
quested approval of a business license application for temporary storage of
repossessed automobiles on M-1 zoned property at 1231 North Lemon Street. His
client proposes to relocate his business from Garden Grove to this address,
which site is perfectly suited to his needs. Mr. Carrel pointed out that simi-
lar activities presently exist n~rby subject property such as the Volks-
wagen complex which is one lot away, a parking lot, and service station activi-
ties. His client proposes nothin~ but storage of automobiles on said property,
however, there may be occasior~t~..tru~k.s and cam~rs,...and very rarely a
boat on the lot. M~. C&=rel a~at~dN~. Stephan has assured htm~ u,~.well-as
representatives of the City, th&~'~his business involves only ~heel vehicles,
there will be no Unsightly collection'of, mtscellaneous personal property on the
lot. -
Mr. Carrel advised that the dedication and setback have already been
provided for this property, and the lot proposed to be used is already screened.
The Applicant has already proceeded, following discussionwith City represen=
tatives, however without official approval, to prepare this'~roperty for this
73-660
City Ha, ll~ ~_~-_~h_etmv California - C0tII~IL M~NUT~S - Auxust 14, 1973, 1=30 P.M.:
Mr. Carrel referred to the t~o different opinions received from the
City Attorney's Office and advised that he concurs with the opinion as stated
by Hr. Da~son in his memorandum of July 25, 1973 that temporary storage of autos
is a permitted and appropriate use in the N-1 ~one. He cited the following per-
mitred uses in the N-1 Zone and contended these are analogous to that which his
client praposesl Auto trailer, camper and mobile home manufacture (which re-
quires incidentil'_ parkin~ or storase); boat buildin~ (~hich also requires in-
cidental storage); parking garage or structure; motor vehicle assembly new;
service station, automobile or truck; and under outdoor uses automobile parking
lots. He maintained that the only difference between the type of parking lot
proposed by Nr. Stephan and that which is permitted pursuant to the Zoning Code
in the M-1 Zone is the method of payment, i.e., instead of the individual o~ners
of the vehicles paying for temporary storage, the person whose financial inter-
ests the Applicant ~ould be protectin$'~ould be paying for their storage.
Councilman Stephenson asked what the difference would be between this
use and a tow service operation.
Mr. carrel advised that primarily his client's operation~ould be more
sightly in that he deals with operable, recently financed autos of current vin-
tage. He assured Councilman Stephenson that it ~ould be unprofitable for the
cars to remain on the lot for an extended period of time and that older, Junk
cars are not usually financed.
Mr. Carrel further reported that the Applicant has been 'in this busi-
~ss for so~e time and has the largest such operation in southern California.
Further that.he is veil regarded in his profession and serves as a member of the
Governor's Advisory Board concernin~ the regulation of this type business, there-
fore he assured the Council they could expect a quality operationvhichvould
abide by the standards they are attemptin~ to impose on this industry. He fur-
ther reported that the amount of time a particular automobile ~ould be impounded
on the lot would vary between a few hours to 14 days.
In conclusion Mr. Carrel ~aintained that the only obstacle to his cli-
ent's proposed ule as a matter of right in the N-l=zoae is a matter of semantics,
beir~ that the exact verde "repossession automobile storage lot" is not included
in the ordinance.
Brief Council discussion ensued relative to amandin~ the ordinance to
include the term repossession Iht as a permitted use, however there was some con-
cern 88 to how the ordinance could provide for the reSulation of conditions under
which such · use would be alloyed.
Hr. ionald Thompson stated that the reason th~s use was not permitted
originally in the a-1 Zone was the "rule by man" versus "rule by lm;" factor,
since there are areas in the City where this use might be appropriate, however
there are other H-1 areas where it would not, such as adjacent to. Automatics or
the Waeuer-Lamhert Administration offices. It vas therefore considered at the
time that this should be permitted only by conditional use permit. Au additional
reason for requirin~ the conditional use per, nit procedure was to prevent the
Develoixnent Services Department's staff from bein~ placed in the position of
marki~ subjective decisions resardin~ these uses.
Hr. Carrel reiterated that he would concur withHr. Dawon's opinion
that the Ordinance as it is ~rritten does give them this particular right ~rlthout
the co~ditional use pe~nit procedure.
Councilman Pebley remarked that if this use were permitted as a matter
of right then any of the these repossession activities would be able to operate
their business io~ediately adjacent to a large.ne~.manuf&cturtn~ plant or admin-
istrative office in the N-1 Zone. Further he felt that the conditional use per-
mdt procedure would alloy the City' to regulate site developo~nt Standards for
these Iota to insure that they do not become unsightly. :

City Hall! Anaheim! California - ~OUNCIL MIN~E$ - Au&ust 1~! 1973! 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Sneegas concurred with Councilman Pebley that to permit
repossession lots as a matter of right in the M-1 Zone would cause some dif-
ficulties and cited as an example a current business within the City whose
repossession operation is not an asset to the area. He further assured' Mr.
Carrel that in order not to set a precedent which could cause difficulties it
appears that there is no other way that the matter can be handled legally ex-
cept through the conditional use permit procedure.
On motion by Councilman Dutton, seconded by Councilman Thom, Mr.
Frank Stephan, Pacific Coast Adjusters was authorized to proceed to operate
a temporary storage lot for repossessed automobiles in the M-1 Zone on pro-
perty located at 1231 North Lemon Street, at his own risk pending application
for and receipt of required conditional use permit. MOTION CARRIED.

considera~ion.
Mayor Dutton remarked that to his knowledge the only way to support
this project is for the City Council to institute and offer to enter into a Joint
powers a~reee~nt with the City of Chino, and any other neighborin~ cities, to
conduct a feasibility study and enviromnental impact report on the project, and
thereuponmoved that' the City Attorney's Office be. directed to proceed to prepare
a Joint powers agreement to this effect. (The foregoing motion died for a lack
of a second.)
Assistant City Attorney Watts reported that a proposed Joint povers
agreement was distributed to Council several months a~o and this could be revised
and updated to include the feasibility study and enviromnental impact report for
whatever action Council wished to take. However he cautioned that even in the
plannin~ stages a rather substantial amount of money vould be involved for a pro-
Ject of this ma~nitude and encompassing the ~nount of land proposed in the Chino
Hills Airport Complex, and the cities~ interest might involve not only staff time
but monetarily.
Councilman Dutton stated that he has bsen assured that there ~ould be
no expenditure on the part of the City but that Federal funds are available for
this purpose.

CoUncilman ineegas inquired if the monies referred to by Councilman
Dutton are received through the Federal Aviation Administration and derived from
a portion of airline tickets, to which the Mayor replied affirmatively.
Councilman Stephenson voiced his opinion that prior to undertaking
any such feasibility study assurance should be obtained regarding the avail-
ability of Federal Funds.
Councilman Thom remarked that his concern, relative to the expenses
involved parallel that of Councilman itephenson's,and suggested that a prelim-
inary report-be submitted prior to the authoriZation-of any feasibility study.
Mr. Watts advised that the City Attorney's Office together with Mr.
Robert Davis, ~ho was appointed liaison between the City and Chino Hills Air-
port Complex, could Jointly compile such a report, which~Ould encompass poten-
tial problem areas, the financing available,and perhaps even a draft of a joint
powers agreement, and brin~ the matter back to Council with this additional
formation for any further actiOn.
By general consent, the Council concurred that the City Attorney's
Office be directed to prepare a preliminary report regarding the implications
of initiating the feasibility study and environmental impact report, and fin-
ancing thereof in conjunction with the Chino Hills Airport Complex proposal.

JOINT SWIMMING POOL CONSTRUCTION WITH ANAHEIM UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT: The City
Manager reported on bids received for joint construction of the four swimming
pools which are considerably in excess of the preliminary estimates. The City
had set aside $310,000 from the 1972-73 and 1973-74 Revenue Sharing Funds for
its portion of these pools, but the low bid to date is $199,000 per pool', and it
is questionable that the school district will accept the low bid; the next low-
est being $206,000 per pool. He asked whether Council wished to proceed on a
joint participation basis with the high school district in light of this addition-
al expenditure in the range of an additional $100,000 for the first two pools.
Councilman Thom moved that the City proceed with joint construction,
making up the difference in the allocation from the Council Contingency Fund.
Mr. Murdoch felt it was unnecessary at this time to determine the fund
or method of payment since it might be possible to take the additional amount
from Revenue Sharing FUnds received the following year.
The foregoing motion died for lack of a second.
Councilman Sneegas inquired if the estimates are for essentially the
same pools which were agreed upon originally.
Mr. Murdoch replied affirmatively and explained that the difference
between the estimates and the bids received stems partially from the fact that
the estimates were made on the basis of pools without all of the additional con-
struction required to accon~date the locker situation when using the school
facilities as part of the public recreation program~ in addition to the infla-
tion factor.
'In answer to Councilman Thom, Mr. Murdoch described the differences in
the types of pools which are necessary for public recreation accommodation as
opposed to school use.
Councilman Dutton remarked that the Anaheim Union High School District
has indicated that they have sufficient funds to proceed with construction of all
four pools whereas the City has allocated $155,000 from the 1972-73 Revenue Shar-
ing Funds and the 1973-74Revenue Sharing Funds for a total of $310,000, and per-
haps this additional increment could be likewise deferred to future budgets.
Councilman Sneegas referred to the problem of the condition of the
water at the Western High School pool and asked what safeguards the CA'ty might
expect against such a similar occurrence in these new'pools, the maintenance of
which will be handled by the Anaheim Union High School District.

City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - 90UNTIL MINUTES - August 14f 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
Hr. Murdoch advised that pool maintenance standards could be written
into the agreement between the two agencies since to date no official agreement
has yet been signed as regards to the joint construction project.
By general Council consent, the commitment to participate in joint
construction of swimming pools with the Anaheim Union High School District was
reaffirmed.
,ADDITIONAL PERS,Ot~L - DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT {BUILDIN~ DIVISION}: Mr.
Murdoch reported on requirements for additional personnel 'in ~he Development
Services Department (Building Division). He remarked that at the time the
Budget was drawn up every attempt was made to keep the same level of personnel
in the Butldin~ Division. It was felt that the City could maintain the same
level of service with this number of personnel even anticipating the increase
in buildinS activity. However, it appears from complaints received from build-
ers that the City is fallin~ behind in adequate inspection levels, and on fur-
ther investigation, it is felt that the level of service previously given can-
not be maintained with current personnel. Some changes to internal procedures
have also agitated the situation to some extent, which currently adds to the
work load but will provide far more efficiency in the future.
Mr. Murdoch advised that one of the factors which may have been over-
looked in anticipating the current needs of the Building Division is where the
work load is taking place (hill and canyon area) and the travel time necessary,
plus the topography factor which inhibits access somewhat. For these reasons
it is now recommended that additional personnel, specifically, one senior
building inspector, two building inspectors and one assistant planner together
with necessary vehicles and equipment be authorized.
In addition, it is recommended, in order to generate the funds re-
quired for the proposed additional personnel that the building permit and plan
check fees be adjusted to the level recommended in the 1973 Uniform Building
Code. These increases would off-set the cost of the additional personnel.
.Councilman Thom asked whether this additional personnel requirement
was apparent prior to adoption of the Budget.
Mr. Murdoch replied that the Chief Building Inspector did feel at that
time that additional personnel was warranted, however, it was suggested that
an effort be made to maintain the same level of service without additional Per-
sonnel, but this approach has not proven successful.
Some discussion was held as to the tabulated supplement indicating
the ratio of square miles, property valuation, and population per building
inspector and Hr. Murdoch pointed out that this does illustrate that the Anaheim
Building Inspectors, in comparison with other cities, are carrying a much heavier
load. Even with the additional personnel requested, Anaheim would still be well
below the personnel ratio as shown for these other cities. He advised that there
are other changes proposed in the internal operations of this division, with
reassignment of certain personnel for more efficient and practical use of their
experience.
On motion by Councilman Pebley, seconded by Councilman Dutton, the
City Council authorized the additional personnel for the Building and
Planning Divisions of Development Services Department as recommended (one senior
building inspector, two building inspector~, one assistant planner). MOTION
CARRIED.

FIVE COVES PARK PROJECT: The City Manager reported that as a result' of .the unexpected
approva! of orange County Revenue Sharing Funds for the Five Coves Park Project,
the design for this should be accelerated. The design for the park at an estim-
ated cost of $35,000 is the City's responsibility, as well as the obligation to
provide the property for the parking lot which is currently City owned. To accel-
erate completion of this design while concomitantly maintaining designwork on
other projects such as Twila Reid Park, Riverdale Park, it will be necessary
to hire part-time personnel under the supervision of the Design Section.
In order to provide the $30,000 which will be required for completion
of the Five Coves design, it is planned that the construction of new rest-
room facilities for La Palma Park, previously budgeted, be postponed, i.e., these
will be removed from the carry forward items and replaced by the design for Five
Coves Park, both costs are the same.
The Council indicated agreement to said substitution.
