Mayor Dutton called the meeting to order.
Mr. Murdoch reported that although this Adjourned Regular Meeting
was scheduled for the purpose of discussing transporation corridors
as well as park land acquisition, due to some misunderstanding,
Mr. Fielding, the Orange County Transit District representative,
was unable to attend this morning. Mr. Fielding suggested instead
that his presentation be given at an Adjourned Regular Meeting,
Wednesday, December 26, 1973, at 11:00 a.m., with which Council in-
dicated no objection.
REPORT - PARKS AND RECREATIO~ COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS ON ADDITIONAL PARK ACRE-
AGE: Mr. John Collier, with the aid of a map which outlined the six park service
areas of concern, discribed the recommendations made by the Parks and Recrea-
tion Commission relative to additional park sites. He advised that these
recommendations are in keeping with the recommendations of the 1968 Citizens'
Committee and are based upon project population densities and that atbempts
have been made to up-date these recommendation as well as to take into con-
sideration the hill and canyon areas.
Mr. Collier stated that the standard for park services since 1959
has' been one and one-half acres per thousand population for neighborhood and
community parks. The map utilized by Mr. Collier illustrated the areas of
service, attempting to provide park facilities within one-half mile in most
instances.
Area No. 1: The area designated as No. 1 (roughly described
as that property bordered by the Riverside Freeway on the north, Santa
Aha Freeway to the southwest and Euclid Street to the east) is serviced
by the John Marshall Park, which is a four acre park site adjacent to
the elementary school. The present park facility is grossly inadequate
for the area served which has a population density of 12,000. Mr.
Collier described the negotiations with the Latter Day Saints organiza-
tion regarding the proposed junior collage facility which had been
planned for this area and the additional park facilities which were to
be developed in conjunction with it. However, the Latter Day Saints
organization has not proceeded with the junior college project and in-
stead is planning to sell the property in question for multiple family
residential development. Mr. Collier reported that the imminent devel-
opment of this property will give the City an opportunity to acquire
the additional nine and one-half acres recommended for park facilities
in Service Area No. 1. Preliminary negotiations with the proposed '
developer of the property indicate their willingness to fulfill the
park obligatio~ by selling six acres to the City at the value of the
property at the time the L.D.S. organization, purchased the site
(approximately $30,000 per acre). There are an additional threeand
o~e-half acres located so that they could be utilized together with
these six acres, which would be sold to the City at the same cost at
which the property was purchased from the L.D.S. organization (approx-
imately $65,000 per acre).
Councilman Dutton pointed out that all of these megotiations
are contingent upon the outcome of the developer's project which has
not yet been reviewed by the City Planning Commission, with which Mr.
Collier agreed.
73-994
City Hall; Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 10:00 A.M.
Area No. 2: The area designated No. 2 is bounded by Ball
Road to the south, the Southern Pacific Railroad right-of-way and Santa
Aha Street to the north. Mr. Collier described the area as being high
in population density with many apartment units and a population factor
of 5,000. He advised that the State of California has declared three
and one-half acres located at the northwest corner of Harbor and Ball
Road surplus property. This acreage would provide a neighborhood facil-
ity, not large enough to meet the City standards, however it would
serve the needs of many youngsters in the immediate vicinity.
Mr. Murdoch pointed out that the smaller size of the parcel
in this instance would necessitate a different approach in Park's design
than formerly used. He noted that this site is the best alternative in
the area, and is in fact the only vacant area available.
Area No. 3: Area No. 3 is located at northeast Harbor and
Ball Road, where a population base of 9,000 is currently serviced by the
Little People's Park, without any other community or neighborhood facil-
ity. There is no particular site selected for Area No. 3 at this time,
however the need for a park facility is recognized.
Area No. 4: This sector of the City, containing 11,500 popu-
lation, is cur~rently served by Edis6n Park, a seven and one-half acre
site. Edison Park is located immediately adjacent to a 40 acre
high school site and the Parks and Recreation Master Plan calls for
utilization of some of the school property along with Edison Park. The
school district has since declared the property adjacent to Edison Park
surplus. The Parks and Recreation Commission has recommended that in
order to more adequately serve this area that the City acquire an addi-
tional nine and one-half acres, extending the park to La Palma Avenue,
thereby increasing its accessability and use. The school district is
amenable to this program and has indicated that the City might be able
to arrange purchase over two to three years, with a five year maximum
limitation.
Councilman Thom inquired whether any acquisition costs fig-
ures where investigated in connection with this recommendation, to which
Mr. Collier replied that the cost of the land would depend on what ever
development takes place on the surrounding property. He estimated that
the property recommended for expansion of Edison Park could cost $35,000
to $45,000 per acre.
Mr. Murdoch pointed out that due to the fact that there is
some multiple family residential development near the subject property
it is possible that a higher'value could be placed on this property.
Area No. 5: This area, with a population of 9,000 is proposed
to be served by the 9.5 acre Riverdale Park, for which Council has
already made a commitment. Mr. Collier reported that matching Orange
County Federal Revenue Sharing funds have been approved for acquisition
of this park site.
Mr. Murdoch advised that condemnation proceedings are underway
in connection with the Riverdale Park site, and it is therefore difficult
at this point to estimate what the cost of the land will be, since this
will be contingent upon'the potential uses of the property in question
as determined by the court. If it is designated at the single family
residential property value, the approximate cost would be $30,000 per
acre.
Area No. 6: Park facilities for Area No. 6, with a population
factor of 7,500 are proposed to be developed at the ten acre site located
at Santa Aha Canyon Road and Fairmont Boulevard. There are 20 acres at
this site available for development of a park and library and these con-
stitute a portion of the land acquired for in-lieu fees from the Grant
Company. Mr. Collier noted that due to the topography of the site it is
contemplated that this will be primarily a natural area. He advised that
the Parks and Recreation Commission philosophy towards parks in the
73-995
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 10:00 A.M.
canyon area will be to leave these as natural as possible and depend
upon school property for baseball diamonds and similar facilities
which woul. d require leveling or other modifications to the terrain.
These canyon area parks would then be used to serve the entire City
as natural open space areas, while the more traditional community
park services would be provided either at the school property or at
comanunity parks which are reasonably accessable.
Councilman Thom inquired as to the proximity of the park property
recommended for Area No. 6 in relationship with the Featherly Regional Park.
Mr. Collier answered that the distance is two and one-half miles.
He pointed out that on the north side of the river, the possibility of using
a portion of Yorba Park as community facility is being investigated. In
addition he mentioned the 60 acre Shorb Wells property, owned by the City,
which will undoubtedly play an important role in the negotiations with the
County regarding use of Yorba Park, during which it is anticipated that there
may be some pressure placed upon the City to incorporate same into joint
recreational use with the County.
Mr. Murdoch asked if it is proposed that the Santa Aha Canyon Road/
Fairmont Boulevard site will serve the Mohler Drive area and Mr. Collier
replied that this would definately ~e a possibility, because of its location
which is only one mile from the Mohler Drive area.
In further reply to Mr. Murdoch, Mr. Collier stated that with the
possible exception of some further development to the extreme eastern part
of the City, the recommendation presented should complete the neighborhood
and community parks program throughout the City.
Mr. Murdoch submitted a letter received from Mr. Robert F. Larsen,
Supervisor, Construction and New Contracts, Orange Unified School District,
regarding 10.93 acres of surplus property for sale on the southerly side of
Santa Aha Canyon Road, lying between Serro Vista Drive and Peralta Hills Drive.
Mr. Collier advised that due to the location of the proposed River-
dale Park site and the two other facilities planned in the general area, the
Parks and Recreation Commission had not considered this site as necessary to
service this area.
Council concurred and authorized the City Manager to inform the
Orange unified School District that the City has no interest in acquiring said
property.
Mr. John Christensen, representing the potential developers of the
Latter Day Saints property, previously discussed for park acquisition in
Area No. 1 was recognized by the Mayor and stated that taking into consider-
ation the lower price to the City for the six acres and the costs for the
additional 3.7 acres together with the credit for in-lieu fees, the price of
that property would average out to less than $27,000 per acre. It was ascer-
tained, in answer to Councilman Thom, that the cost of the property excluding
the credit for in-lieu fees would average $38,000 to $39,000 per acre, where-
as the developer is paying $64,000 per acre for this property.
Mr. Christensen noted that his firm will be spending 50 million
dollars in development of the proposed condominium project and stated that
since the projected park property will he immediately adjacent they would re-
quest that Council consider early development of the park.
In response to Council request~ Mr. Murdoch presented the following
figures relative to park development fees and operating and construction costs
from Fiscal Years, 1961-62 through 1972-73:
1. Revenue from Park Fees $1,725,630.00
2~ Revenue - Bonds 1,096,148.00
3. Expenditures - Operating Costs 9,322,435.00
4. Expenditures - Capital Outlay
(Acquisition and Development Costs
and Major Equipment) 3,852,620.00
73-996
City Hall; Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18; 1973~ 10:00 A.M.
Mr. Murdoch reiterated that figures were not immediately available
as to Park Acquisition Costs alone.
Councilman Dutton remarked that the total park fees including bonds
do not nearly approximate the costs of park acquisition, development and oper-
ation.
Mr. Murdoch summarized that although Council is not requested to make
commitments to any of the additional park sites today, decisions will be nec-
essary on possible parks in Area Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 4, recognizing that there are
no budgeted funds, within the next two years.
Councilman Thom voiced the opinion that acquisition of any additional
park land should be considered in light of the property which the City has al-
ready acquired and is still undeveloped.
Mr. Murdoch concurred with this statement, noting that there are
three major cost areas involved in providing and maintaining park lands, i.e.,
the acquisition costs, the development costs and operational costs. He advised
that emphasis shifts from one category to the other as property is acquired,
this places a heavier burden on the development budget, and the developed pro-
perty increases maintenance cost.
Mr. Kamphefner reported that it currently averages the City $3,400
per acre per year to maintain developed park properties. Mr. Kamphefner fur-
ther noted that there are 88.2 acres of undeveloped neighborhood parks repre-
senting six different sites.
Mr. Collier advised that five acres is under construction at Hansen
School, which will be complete in .approximately two months,and ten acres at the
Reid School are also currently in development which should be complete in eight
months.
Councilman Pebley asked if Mr. Collier felt the taxpayers were con-
cerned enough regarding the status of the park program to pass a bond issue.
Mr. Collier rgplied that he thought this might be possible if it were
the only issue on the ballot, but related that usually those citizens who
have park facilities are reluctant to go into debt to provide these facilities
els%where. Further Mr. Collier pointed out that it is anticipated, in light
of the fuel situation, that neighborhood and community parks will realize much
more usage, and this might necessitate a review of City priority to further the
park problem.
Councilman Thom remarked that perhaps the Council should review the
park in-lieu fees and consider raising these.
Mr. Murdoch felt that review of the park in-lieu fees should be under-
taken together with the growth and development picture. The main reason the
recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Commission relative to in-lieu fees
has not been presented for action is because of the anticipated slow down in
building activity. '~ .~.~
Mr. Collier advised that the fees currently are $200 for single-family
home, $125 for apartments and $100 for mobil homes. He related that the City
of Anaheim's in-lieu fees are the lowest, in Orange County.
Mr. Murdoch suggested that if Council wishes to consider an adjustment
of in-lieu fees, then a report should be prepared containing information and
comparisons of fees and park acreage provided in other Orange County cities,
similar to that utilized when current zoning and land use fees were established.
The Council concurred with this suggestion.
Councilman Thom reiterated that.he personally would not like to see
the City acquire additional park properties without accelerating construction
73-997
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 10:00 A.M.
of that which is owned and not yet developed. He remarked in answer to
Councilman Stephenson that this might be accomplished via a rearrangement of
priorities.
Councilman Sneegas estimated that the cost of the land discussed
for acquisition in Mr. Collier's presentation would total two million dollars
and development of same would be an additional one million. After develop-
ment, these additional parks would increase the Park maintenance budget by
$468,000 per year which would in effect increase the Park maintenance
budget by 33 1/3%. Councilman Sneegas remarked that he could only specu-
late, whether or not park facilities are equally important to people as other
City services, and if so, the Council will receive additional pressure for expan-
sion and enlargement of other City services as well. He admonished that the
Council should consider recommendations for additional park acquisition with
full awareness of the implications that these might precipitate increased
demands for other City services.
Mr. Murdoch concurred with this statement and remarked that the
time for decision is not imminent on any of the properties discussed, but
that staff wanted Council to have the information. He advised that these
park land acquisitions will be considered along with the other budgetary re-
quirements for the Fiscal Year 1974-75 Budget. He advised that if this
is in line with Council's thinking, they will proceed on this basis and
present the individual properties for Council decision when the total
financial picture is available. He remarked that he felt a realistic
analysis of the energy situation and how it will affect the City's revenues
and budget would be possible some time within the first two or three months
of 1974.
Councilman indicated no objections to Mr. Murdoch's suggestion, and
no further action was taken by the Council.
REPORT ON SURVEY MATERIAL - DECEMBER 1973 NEWSLETTER QUESTIONNAIRE: Mr. Ron
Rothschild, Administrative Aide, defined the purpose of the questionnaire as
to ascertain the public reaction to the services and facilities provided by
the City and .presented the following analysis of the responses received.
(Complete report entitled "How is Our Livability Factor?" filed in the office
of the City Clerk.)
Mr. Rothschild advised that 66,000 of the questionnaire formswere
distributed and a total of 1800 were returned fully or partially completed,
for a response rate of 3% which is considered to be significant because of
the type of questionnaire and the method of presentation. The locations from
which each response generated were charted and indicated in color on a City
map and the indication was that there was an even dist=ibution of responses
throughout the City.
Mr. Rothschild advised that due to the fact that in answer to Ques-
tion No. 4, only 4% of the respondents stated they obtained information about
the City from City employees indicates that the response is largely from the
ordinary citizen rather than from City employees.
The report gives a statistical analysis of the responses to each
question and tabulation o£ the percent generally pos~ive ann generally nega-
tive. (These tables were displayed on slides throughout the presentation.)
In summary, the overall information is highly favorable to the City'
on the basis of citizen response to selected survey questions. Public senti-
ment was found to be affirmative and complimentary towards the City government
and facilities provided.
Those who qualified their affirmation or gave negative responses
most often cited areas of concern related to problems of a growing urban area
73-998
City Hall; Anaheim; California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 10:00 A.M.
including overcrowding, overannexation, air and noise pollution, traffic con-
gestions, etc. Another area of irritability is the apparent lack of informa-
tion disseminated concerning City activities and policies while these are under
consideration. Additionally, unresponsiveness and "buck passing" on the part
of City personnel when contacted for information was mentioned as a concern.
Mr. Rothschild then gave individual analyses and statistical break-
down of the response to each question.
Mr. Murdoch pointed out that some of the percentages shown in the
negative area of the graph were made by respondents who indicated general sat-
isfaction, however wished to point out areas which could be improved.
Mr. Rothschild noted that Question Nos. 5 and 6 were negatively
oriented and in fact the citizen was asked to cite a problem. The results of
these indicate the priority of problems that this sample of the Anaheim popu-
lation feels they have. These range from growth and overcrowding, cited most
often, poor public transportation, traffic congestion and air, noise and
physical pollution were the next most frequently mentioned problems.
Council surmised that the rate of satisfaction might be even higher
than the analysis indicates since many of those citizens who did not respond
are generally happy with their environment. They noted the type of mailer
this was and that it was delivered as bulk mail, a large majority of which is
thrown away without ever being looked at.
Councilman Sneegas voiced the opinion that it would be interesting
to run Question No. 16 regarding usage of the Orange County Transit District
bus system at biannual intervals and to compare the results.
Mr. Murdoch further pointed out that many of the replies called
attention to specific items and in these instances they were referred to the
appropriate department and action was taken. Throughout the questionnaire
approach, additional follow up, observations and recommendations are required.
There is also a definate obligation to follow up through whatever media pos-
sible to insure that the citizens receive answers to those questions posed
via the questionnaire. He stated that if this type of approval meets with
Council approval, we will continue this type of contact with the citizenry.
Mr. Murdoch emphasized that the comments received relative to the
flow of information, which indicated that sufficient information is received
after the fact, but that the people felt they should be better informed re-
garding"pending matters and policies, were not expected and certainly indicate
that this is an area of substantial interest which should be concentrated
upon.
No further action was taken by the City Council.

Cit~ Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18, 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts noted the location and surrounding
use of subject property and advised that the Applicant proposes to create five
lots on two separate legal lots. He explained the northerly parcel is proposed
to be split into two lots, each slightly under 5,000-square feet and having a
lot coverage of approximately 39%, and the southerly parcel is proposed to be
split into three lots, each slightly over 5,000-square feet and having a lot
coverage of approximately 38%.
The Mayor asked if the Applicant or his agent were present and satis-
fied with the recormnendations of the Planning Commission; there being no
response, asked if anyone in opposition wished to address the Council.
Sherman Marsh, 1018 Mayflower, advised he feels the proposed develop-
ment will generate more cars in the area, creating a hazard to the children
and adding to the existing parking problem.
The Mayor asked if anyone else wished to address the Council; there
being no response, declared the hearing closed.
RESOLUTION NO. 73R-580: Councilman Sneegas offered Resolution No. 73R-580 for
adoption, authorizing the preparation of the necessary ordinance changing the

ANAHEIM STADIUM - TOMMY WALKER - JULY 4TH FIREWORKS DISPLAY: Request of Tommy Walker
to address the Council to review the status of his rights to the Anaheim Stadium
for the staging of the 4th of July Fireworks Show and clarification of Golden
West Baseball Company lease agreement, as it pertains to the City's rights to
schedule additional events on the same day as the California Angel's Baseball
games, was submitted.
Also submitted was opinion of the City Attorney and report of Tom
Liegler, Director of Anaheim Stadium and Convention Center. Submitted at open
meeting was a brochure containing complimentary letters received by Mr. Walker
on past fireworks displays.
Mr. Tommy Walker, 722 Westwood Place, Anaheim, referred to action
taken by the A~aheim City Council in April, 1970, whereby the City Attorney's
Office was authorized to prepare a seven (7) year lease agreement for the use
of the Anaheim Stadium for'the old-fashioned 4th of July celebration, subject
to prior rights of the California Angels and subject to right of the City of
Anaheim to cancel said agreement in the event the Stadium was sold.
Mr. Walker reviewed shows staged in the Stadium beginning with the
first in 1966, thru 1969, and advised that this represented an investment of
approximately one-quarter million dollars to produce a show. He thereupon read
a letter received from Mr. Liegler in 1968 in response to his request that this
show be an annual event, establishing the July 4th date through 1976 for the
annual fireworks show, having first option after the selection of dates by the
California Angels. He reported that in 1970, 1971 and 1972 he was not in the
Stadium as the Angels had been scheduled into the Stadium which in his opinion
was highly improper in light of his contract with the City.
73-1005
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Walker read from the lease agreement with the Angels particu-
larly (Page No. 8) D"TimeofGame" andfelt that in the best interests of the City
where two events can be scheduled in the Stadium, considering the revenue
derived,the citizens should not be deprived of his 4th of July show. Noted
also was the fact that the Coliseum has been dark the last couple of'years,
and he was of the further opinion that the citizens should not have to have
their spectacular firework show depend on whether or not an A~gel game is
scheduled.on that day. It was his considered opinion that there already is
scheduled a fireworks event on the 4th of July through the years through
1976, and actually not only through 1976 but always. Mr. Walker felt there
was a moral issue involved since he was the first in the Stadium establishing
the show and the 4th of July should be staged by a professional whose ~hole
livelihood is based upon his living in Anaheim and is not being taken away
by a baseball club that is not in show business.
Councilman Pebley, being one of the signers to the Angel's contract,
stated it was his interpretation that if the Angels were out of town on
July 4th, then Mr. Walker had the right to rent the Stadium and according to
the City Attorney's interpretation, if the Angels are in town, and are having
a game on the night of the 4th of July, the Angels also have the right to stage
the fireworks display.
Mr. Walker contended that if the City entered a contract prior to
the Angels scheduling the games, then the Angels must schedule the game so
as not to interfere with the previously City scheduled night-timeevent~ and
that this goes beyond the legal interpretation.
Councilman Thom read the last paragraph of the City Attorney's
report wherein it is stated that it was the opinion of the City Attorney's Office
that the California Angels have prior rights under the least agreement to
schedule their games, and ~that the fireworks display, incidental to the base-
ball games, was permissible under the terms of the agreement. Councilman Thom
stated it was his interpretation that "it is permissible" was that a fireworks
display is permissible to the Angels and to Mr. Walker, or anyone alse.
Mr. Watts advised that the language used in the report was intended
to convey that it was permissible for the Angels to conduct a fireworks display, the
opinion was intended to indicate that the Angels have the right to select the
day and when they do not schedule a game on the 4th of July, then Mr. Walker
would have the right to conduct the fireworks display on that date.
Mr. Walker referred to a statement made to him by the former City
Attorney wherein if the Angels schedule a day game they would not have the
right to come back and stage the fireworks show at that night.
Mr. Watts agreed with the above statement and stated that the
question was the relationship in time of the fireworks display to the baseball
game. He noted a problem that could arise if there was a day game and a Toq~ny
Walker show that same night being the elaborate arrangements placed in the
outfield for the fireworks show and the effect that might have on the baseball
game.
Mr. Walker reported that this has been done in the past and all
requirements of the Angels were met.
Councilman Sneegas noted that during this past~year the Angels had
a fireworks show on July 2nd and the Tommy Walker show was on July 4th. He
questioned the advisability of allowing a show so close before the 4th which
would reflect on the revenue received on the 4th, and felt that there defin-
itely should be a show on the 4th of July.
Mr. Watts further reported that the lease agreement provides for the
Angels to schedule their dates, not necessarily the hour of their dates, prior
to the baseball season and he believed this to be no later than February 1st,
and then the paragraph quoted by Mr. Walker would apply, but after those dates
have been selected the City then has the right to rent the Stadium to others.
He stated he would be reluctant to advise that the City had the right to rent
the Stadium two or three years in advance.
73-1006
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Jerry Utti, Attorney representing Mr. Walker, advised that he
had examined the lease agreement with the Angels very closely and the provi-
sion related by Mr. Walker (Page No. 8) D "Time of Game" was crucial and gives
the City Council the right to set up dates that the City wants the Stadium used
for Civic Events, and still does not deprive the Angels the use of the Stadium
on that particular day.
Mr. Utti stated there was legal precedent to allow Mr. Walker to
stage the fireworks display on the 4th of July, even though the Angels play a
game on that day, as in 1970 it was the initial intent of the City Council to
create a seven (7) year contract with Mr. Walker which, however, never took
place. With this intent he contended the use of the Stadium on that night by
the Angels was preempted, however, they could use the Stadium during the
morning or afternoon.
Mr. Utti thereupon offered to work with the City Attorney in the best
interests of the Angels, Mr. Walker and the residents of the City of Anaheim
and felt it would be in the best interests of everyone to resolve this problem
in an amicable way rather than have to litigate it in court.
Mr. Liegler addressed the Council and stated that there was no doubt
that the Tommy Walker Fireworks Productions are the best in the State and that
it does mean substantial revenue to the City of Anaheim. He advised this prob-
lem has been with him and his office since 1967 and that it is not practical to have
two events on the same date. Further, the California Angels look upon their
baseball game, followed by a fireworks display, as a guarantee to close to a
full house. He stated he would like to see all involved sit down and work these
problems out,as two events in one day presents many complicating factors from
an operational standpoint, such as rehearsals, sound systems, etc.
Councilman Thom felt the issue was really two major events, a baseball
game and an extravaganza.
Mr. Liegler advised that one of the issues that must be considered is
the revenue sources from both parties. In his opinion, over the seven years
he felt that they ~have taken the correct steps in this matter in trying to brimg
together the best for both parties as both are substantial tenants of the
Stadium.
At the conclusion of the discussion, Mayor Dutton advised that it was
the concensus of the Council that the City legal staff, the Angels legal staff
and Mr. Walker's Attorney meet with Mr. Liegler in an effort to resolve the
problem.
Mr. Walker asked how this could be done as expeditiously as possible
as he wi~Med to stage a show at the Stadium and felt that it would carry more
weight i~ the Mayor or a City Councilman from the City met with the Angel's
Management and worked out the problem as he was certain his presence would be
considered a personal involvement.
Mayor Dutton stated that inasmuch as Mr. Walker has brought up a
legal question in the interpretation of a contract, all attorneys involved should
meet first, and the meeting should be arranged by Mr. Liegler.
Councilman Thom again noted that the City Council was the issuing
authority for fireworks pehnits and as such would have control.
Councilman Stephenson felt two events on the same date would both~
fail.
Mr. Walker advised that he wanted to make it clear that he was.not
only requesting permission to stage the 4th of July pageants in the Stadium
through the years 1976, but to stage these pageants as long as he continues
put on a show that does make money and is a quality show; that he be given the
opportunity to continue to do so. He again stated that he felt two events in
the same day could be staged even if he was required to rehearse in La .Palma
Park.

LITIGATION - JOSE FLORES VERSUS UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE: The Acting City
Attorney Alan Watts reported on litigation in which the City of Anaheim has
intervened for damages to municipal property in the amount of $4,000 to $5,000.
It appears that the B. F. Goodrich Company has been named by the Government
in a cross claim in said legal action and since the Federal District Court
Judge who has been assigned to hear the case has disclosed that he owns stock
in the B. F. Goodrich Company, it is necessary that each of the attorneys and
clients involved submit a letter indicating they find no objection with the
judge assigned to the case. He thereupon recommended that the City Council
authorize the letter which, has been prepared for the Mayor's signature, stat-
ing that the Council feels the judge assigned would not be prejudicial to the
case.
On motion by Councilman Thom, seconded by Councilman Smeegas, the
letter prepared by the Acting City Attorney was authorized for the Mayor's
signature. MOTION CARRIED.
LITIGATION - PITCHESS VS. SUPERIOR COURT: Acting City Attorney Alan Watts des-
cribed the legal action taken against a Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy

and recommended that the City Council authorize the addition of the City of
Anaheim's name to a brief which will be filed by the City of San Francisco
in support of the Los Angeles County position which upholds the confidentiality
of internal affairs division reports. He advised that there will be no cost
to the City nor staff time involved in such action.
Councilman Sneegas moved that the City Attorney be authorized to

SALE OF ELECTRICAL CONSUMER SUBSTATION - DELCO-REM%f: Memorandum from George Edwards,
Electrical Superintendent, dated November 27, 1973, recommending sale of the
consumer substation (consisting of three 1,000 KVA transformers and three 750
KVA transformers) which was acquired by the City as a result of Edison Condem-
nation No. 4 in 1968 to Delco-Remy for a sum of $6,427.05, including tax, was
submitted together with the letter from the Delco-Remy Plant Superintendent and
inventory of said electrical distribution facilities.
Mr. Davis advised that Delco-Remy expects to increse electrical usage
and to change the metering configuration from 4 KV to 12 KV in June, 1974.
De lco-Remy has therefore requested that the consumer substation located at their

that the sale be authorized.
On motion by Councilman Pebley, seconded by Councilman Sneegas, the
City Council authorized sale of the pole, consumer substation and electrical
distribution equipment as indicated on the inventory prepared to Delco-Remy at
the estimated depreciated value of $6,427.05, including sales tax. MOTION

LEASE - PURCHASE AGREEMENT~ SECURITY PACIFIC BANK (I.B.M. cOMPUTER): Mr. Davis
outlined that under the agreement with San Gabriel Valley Municipal Data
System, the City of Anaheim was to obtain and lease the building, spliting
the rental costs, and the City of Anaheim was to operate the computer and M.D.S.
was to provide the computer under a lease purchase arrangement with provision
for alternate purchase of the equipment. He reported that due to a technical-
ity which exists within the joint powers agreement between M.D.S. and its 16
member cities, it will be necessary for M.D.S. to amend their bylaws in'order
to consumate the le'ase agreement and have it approved. For the ~nterim per-
iod, during which M.D.S. W~ll have to obtain approval from the 16 mem~r cities
for the change in bylaws, which is anticipated to take approximtely 45 days,
M.D.S. has requested that the City of Anaheim enter into a lease-purchase
agreement with the Security Pacific Bank with provision for assigning said
lease to M.D.S at such time as the bylaws are amended. The lease-purchase
agreement would include the main frame, control printer, keyboard, and power
unit. The total cost of said equipment over a six year period would be
$1,079,213.79. Mr. Davis remarked that under any circumstances, it would be
his recommendation that the computer be acquired in this fashion. Me noted
that the lease-purchase arrangement will provide the computer at a lower cost
than leasing from I.B.M. and that under the agreement with M.D.S. any payments
made by participating agencies (City of Anaheim or M.D.S.) will accrue to them
~the proportionate equity based on the payments made.
73-1014
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18, 1973, 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Thom noted that with the lease-purchase for the computer,
M.D.S. will bear no responsibility in the arrangement.
Mr. Davis assured him that M.D.S. is very desirous of having some
interest in the arrangement, since otherwise the City of Anaheim would in fact
be performing in the capacity of a service bureau for them. He advised that
the computer is installed in the building and the City of Anaheim personnel
will move in December 20, 1973. He stated that if the City were to lease the
computer from I.B.M. for this intervening period, it would cost an estimated
$6,000 additionally over the cost of the lease-purchase agreement with Security
Pacific Bank.
Mr. Watts stated that the lease-purchase arrangement proposed with
Security Pacific Bank is identical to the one which the City of Anaheim entered
into with respect to the Convention Center equipment. There are two separate
documents submitted for Council approval, one to enter the lease purchase agree-
ment to acquire the computer and the other, secondarily, to assign to M.D.S.
the right, title and interest in that lease.
Mr. Davis pointed out however that equity on payments made by the City
would be retained, and further that M.D.S. will pay their proportionate share
of the computer costs during the interim period.
Mr. Watts explained that the technicality which is causing the diffi-
culty involves the definition of a public agency as seen by the bonding attorneys,
that said agency have the power of eminent domain, whereas the joint powers
agreement with the 16 cities constituting San Gabriel Valley Municipal Data
System does not grant this ability and therefore must be amended.
Mr. Davis stated that the lease payments will commence April 1, 1974,
the cost per month will be $14,793.00, to be split between the City and M.D.S°
and the interest rate is 5.73% which is'the same as the City has obtained on
recent equipment purchases.
Councilman Thom inquired whether any timing and phasing information
of the merger and of the new programs coming out is available.
Mr. Davis replied that M.D.S. is already located in the building
and City of Anaheim personnel will move in on December 20, 1973. The computer
is presently running parallel with the equipment in the Stadium for accuracy
check. The next step is the programming sequence.
Councilman Thom advised that he would like to see a time-phase schedule
on the merger and on new program development.

REQUEST - SIGNALIZATION OF LA VERNE STREET AND HARBOR BOULEVARD: Dr. Cain, a
long time resident who has had an established medical office at 200 North
Harbor Boulevard since 1946, requested to address the Council relative to
the number of accidents which have occurred at the intersection of Harbor and
La Verne, many victims of which he personally attended as aphysician. Hr related
that he has had occasion to drive through this intersection frequently and
that he has been prompted to come forward and speak because he fears for the
safety of those individuals who attempt to cross Harbor Boulevard at this
intersection. He noted that many of the people who use the crosswalk located
at La Verne and Harbor are aged and crippled or immobilized by physical dis-
abilities. He advised that the death of a well respected member of the com-
munity as a result of a traffic accident at the corner of Harbor and La Verne
served as the catalyst to this presentation and the petition to be submitted
by Mr. Charles Davis. He suggested and urgently requested that some type of
signal device be installed at this corner to insure the safety of those using
the crosswalk.
Mr. Charles Davis, who owns and operates the Davis Market located
on the corner of ~a~Verne and Harbor, presented a petition to the Council con-
taining ~{gnatures o£ those citizens who feel that a traffic signal or other
safety device should be installed at this corner. A portion of these signa-
tures were collected by the Horace Mann School P.T.A.
Mr. Davis described the traffic on Harbor Boulevard as traveling at
a rate of 50 m.p.h, whereas the street is posted at 35 m.p.h. Further he noted
that there is no gap or letup of oncoming traffic because of the automobiles
making right turns from La Palma Avenue onto Harbor Boulevard against the red
light. He also suggested that a traffic signal or other safety device be
installed at this location or that the right turn onto Harbor from La Palma on
a red signal be eliminated. Further he pointed out that at this particular
location, there is "no parking" on either side of Harbor Boulevard because
73-1016
City Hall, Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18, 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
of the width of the street, and the number of lanes of traffic. As result
the lane of traffic is immediately adjacent to the curb and when an adult or
child steps off the curb into the street, he is at once in the traffic lane.
He referred to many other traffic accidents which have occurred in this
immediate vicinity.
A report from the City Engineer, dated December 13, 1973 was also
submitted which recommended that traffic signals not be installed at the inter-
section of Harbor and La Verne, and that the existing crosswalk be removed.
A resident at 910 North Habor, attested to Dr. Cain's and Mr. Davis'
statements regarding the traffic on Harbor Boulevard and further pointed out
that she was considerably concerned about the large number of children who cross
Harbor from the east side to attend the Horace Mann School. She noted that many
of these children do not use the school crosswalk at La Palma Avenue but instead
cross at La Verne and Harbor and that these children are not sufficiently aware
of the distance it takes a moving vehicle to stop or slow down for them. She
also noted that many elderly people cross at this location and that it is some-
times necessary to wait as long as five minutes for a break in traffic, because
the lights are not synchronized in such a manner as to provide sufficient time
for pedestrians to cross.
Councilman Sneegas asked if any recommendation has been made regarding
this intersection by the School Traffic Safety Committee, whose responsibility
it is to investigate traffic conditions along school routes.
Mr. Ed Granzow, Traffic Engineer, replied that in response to a recent
request from the Principal of Horace Mann School for a crossing guard at the
Harbor-La Verne intersection, an investigation disclosed that the number of
children crossing at that point was not great, and that warrants for a traffic
signal were not met. The results of this investigation were given to the School
Traffic Safety Committee and it was their recommendation that the Anaheim
Elementary School District be contacted 'and that the School and the'parents re-
quire the children to use the prescribed safe routes to school which do not
include crossing Harbor at La Verne.
Councilman Thom noted that he crosses this intersection daily and that
there is a very steady stream of young children crossing at the subject location,
not~ any large groups, but arriving two or three at a time constantly.
Mr. Granzow noted that one of the reasons it is recommended that the
walkway be removed is because Harbor Boulevard is so narrow in this location
that once off the sidewalk, a pedestrian is immediately in the traffic lane.
Councilman ?ebley asked if the changing the speed limit to 30 m.p.h.
rather than 35 m.p.h, would be of any benefit.
Mr. Granzow advised that Harbor Boulevard is a major arterial highway,
carrying a traffic volumn of 26,000 per day, that they have discovered that 'the
85 percentile speed is between 38-39 m.p.h, and consequently the speed has been
set at 35 m.p.h, and anything lower than that would be impossible to enforce.
Councilman Dutton inquired whether any pedestriam traffic study was
initiated at the intersection, to which Mr. Granzow replied that foot traffic
was counted only durin~ the periods of going to and from school and this was
not sufficient to meet the warrants for a traffic signal.
In answer ~o Councilman Sneegas, Mr. Granzow advised that the install-
ation of an unjustified traffic signal usually results in an increase in traffic
accidents rather than a decrease, and at this location where the total reported
number of accidents are five for the last three years, he would estimate that
number to double or even triple if a signal light were installed.
Councilman Thom suggested that the City install a warning light such
as a yellow flashing Signal over the crosswalk.
Mr. Granzow stated he would not recommend this, since a warning light
has no meaning and is~not enforceable; it merely says"be careful at this location".
73-1017
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
Councilman Dutton asked for Mr. Granzow's reaction to a push button
activated traffic signal.
Mr. Granzow replied that this would perform a function at subject
location, however the cost of same (approximately $50,000) seems to be prohibi-
tive and further it might be detrimental to the traffic flow on Harbor which
must be maintained in order to move the large volumn of traffic. He noted
that each time the button was pushed to activate the red signal for a pedes-
trian, the synchronization of traffic signals on Harbor Boulevard would have
to be adjusted.
In response to Councilman Sneegas's query, regarding additional
lighting over the crosswalk, Mr. Granzow remarked that this might be beneficial.
Further discussion was directed to the possibility of eliminating
right turns at the red signal on La Palma Avenue in order to establish suffi-
cient traffic breaks to allow the pedestrians an opportunity to cross, and
Mr. Granzow suggested that prior to implementing this, an investigation of the
gaps in traffic as they currently exist be made, and then, if these are not
deemed sufficient, a"no right turn on red signal"could be initiated and its
effects analyzed. He further suggested that if posting "no right turns
on red signal"is accomplished at La Palma that the same be implemented at the
intersection of North Street and Harbor Boulevard.
By general Council consent, the Traffic Engineer was authorized to
make an analysis of the right-hand-turn movement onto Harbor Boulevard from
both La Palma Avenue and North Street to see if the right-hand-turns on the
red light still provides for a substantial time break for pedestrians to cross.
Further discussion to be held when the results of this investigation are known
and those individuals who have expressed an interest will be notified when the
matter again comes before Council.
DESIGN SERVICES - THREE PROPOSED PARK BUILDINGS (BOYSEN; TWILAREEDANDMANZANITA
PARKS): Mr. Dick Kamphefner, Park Superintendent, presented a proposal from Mr.
Floyd E. Weaver, to perform construction drawings for three park buildings,
the costs of which based on an estimate of the number of hours required, are
as follows: Boysen Park, $1,800; Twila Reed, $3,000; Manzanita, $2,400.
Services to be performed by Mr. Weaver would include preliminary
drawings, working drawings, building committee review and site inspections.
However, not included in this proposal are the services of a mechanical and/or
electrical engineer, field surveying and site engineering.
Mr. Kamphefner added that it is the intent of Parks and Recreation
Department to prepare the plot plans for the three buildings in-house as well
as to suggest materials of construction. They feel that if they work with
the individuals involved and provide the supervision that the cost 0f these
buildings would be considerably less than it would be to hire an architect.
Mr. Watts inquired as to who wonld perform the mechanical, electrical
and engineering architectural services for these three project, to which Mr.
Kamphefner replied that they intent to contract for this work individually,
noting that they have in mind an electrical engineer who has been involved in
design of the parks and is knowledgeable regarding the electrical facilities
therein.
Councilman Thom remarked that usually, when an architect is hired,
he performs or supplies all structural, electrical %nd engineering services.
Mr. Kamphefner stated that Parks and Recreation is attempting to
avoid hiring of an overall project architect since they do not feel that these
three proposed structures require creative design work, and also since they
basically find they have been doing this type of work in the past since the
architects hired were not cognizant of the special problems with maintenance
and vandalismWith which the Parks system must cope.
Councilman Pebley voiced the opinion that for such a project an
architect would usually bid for a 6% fee of the total estimated cost, which
for these proposed structures would amount to approximately a $7,200 fee.
73-1018
City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
He further noted that this is also the entire amount being bid by Mr. Weaver,
with the exclusion of mechanical and electrical engineering services, these
to be in addition to his fee. Further, he stated that with the employment of
Mr. Weaver for partial architectural services, there is no sole responsibility
for the structure as there would be with one project architect.
Mr. Murdoch concurred with cOuncilman Pebley, however he noted that
with this size project, the architect would more likely bid at 74 or 8% of the
total project costs, which would be comparable to one Mr. Weaver has proposed.
The total responsibility for the project would be incumbent upon this project
architect and all mechanical, electrical, field surveying and site engineering
as well as supervision would be included.
Mr. Kamphefner noted that the Parks and Recreation Department has mot
been completely satisfied with the supervisory services supplied on Park pro-
jects by previous architects and that they propose to do much of this themselves.
Mr. Murdoch suggested that action on this proposal be withheld to
allow time to investigate the architectural approach and the cost of same, or
the method by which Mr. Weaver would be employed, but that he accepts similar
responsibility as a project architect for these structures, which he is able
to do under his license as a structural engineer. Mr; Murdoch felt that the
costs for mechanical and electrical engineering services which would be re-
quired in addition to Mr. Weaver's proposal be included in the presentation.
He felt it would be appropriate to discuss the inclusion in the arrangement for
field surveying and site engineering. If the responsibility for the projects
are to be split as proposed, then the degree of responsibility to be assigned
to each of those involved should be delineated.
By general consent, the City Council withheld action on the proposal
presented by Mr. Kamphefner pending further report.

CITY EMPLOYEES' DENTAL INSURAN.CE RECOMMENDATIONS: Personnel Director Garry McRae
reported that apparently when the matter of City employees' dental benefits
was discussed at the Council meeting held November 27, 1973, certain state-
ments relative to the pre-paid plan offered by Dr. Kaufman were misconstrued
and therefore the following letter was sent to Dr. Gubler to clarify the
situation. Mr. McRae thereupon requested said letter be submitted for Council
information and spread in full upon the Minutes and that Dr. Gubler be so
advised:

City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18, 1973, 1:30 P.M.
"Dr. Richard Gubler, Chairman
Orange County Dental Society
Dental Care Committee
Dear Sir:
Regarding my presentation to the Anaheim City Council on November 27,
1973, at no time did I or Mr. Tyre intend to imply or represent that
you endorsed or supported the clinic's of James Kaufman, D.D.S., Inc.
Apparently, my remarks were so interpreted.
I affirm that you did not endorse or infer endorsement in any manner
of the clinic of James Kaufman, D.D.S., Inc in our recent association.
I apologize for any inconvenience this matter may have caused you.
Sincerely,
Garry O. McRae, Personnel Director"
EMPLOYMENT OF MR. WILLIAM HEPBURN - MANPOWER PLANNER: Mr. Robert M. Davis, Assistant
City Manager, reported that due to recent Federal Legislation, the responsibility
for Manpower Planning has been delegated to cities with a population of 100,000
or larger. To assist in the preparation of a plan for future funds, the Depart-
ment of Labor has forwarded a grant to the City of Anaheim in the amount of
$25,000 with which it is proposed that the City hire Mr. William Hepburn, by
contract,for a period of one year to prepare the total plan for the City of
Anaheim. Mr. Hepburn is a Manpower Development Specialist, presently employed
by the Department of Labor in Washington, D. C. He would come to the City under
an inter-governmental personnel act program, through which the City of Anaheim
would pay 51% of his Federal salary and.benefit cost and the Federal Government
the balance. The City's portion to be funded from the $25,000 grant received.
At the termination of the contract period, Mr. Hepburn would have the option
of returning to the Federal Government or of becoming a City employee, if the
City choose to offer him a job in the Manpower field.
City.
Councilman Thom asked specifically what Mr. Hepburn would do for the
Mr. Davis replied that manpower planning for the City of Anaheim will
include the P.E.P. Program, if this is continued, vocational rehabilitation
programs and related matters, many of which are currently handled by the County
under the Manpower Area Planning Council. He advised that the City of Anaheim's
needs in the manpower area must be defined and the plans made in order to admin-
istrate the Federal Funds which will be received during Fiscal Year 1974-75.
Councilman Thom asked whether H.R.D. is involved, to.which
Mr. Davis replied that they will also be included and will contribute to the
total program.
Mr. Murdoch pointed out that as of legislation enacted December 17,
1973 by the United States Congress, cities of over 100,000 population are now
in the manpower business, the funds for which will be made as grants to local
jurisdictions. The $25,000 grant is to provide the City's plan for Fiscal Year
1974-75. He advised that in an area such as Orange County, planning should be
done as much as a joint effort as possible, and that this has been discussed
with the County Administration Officers and recommended on an administrative
basis to the Board of Supervisors. It is anticipated that a County-wide man-
power program will ultimately be developed.
On motion by Councilman Stephenson, seconded by Councilman Dutton,
the Mayor and City Clerk were authorized to execute a one-year contract with
the Manpower Administration to employ Mr. William Hepburn as Manpower Planner
for the City of Anaheim, at a yearly salary of $21,366.00, beginning January 20,
1974. MOTION CARRIED.

City Hall~ Anaheim~ Californi&- COUNCIL MINUTES - December 18~ 1973~ 1:30 P.M.
MOTION TO DECLARE DECEMBER 24 AND DECEMBER 31~ 1973 CITY HOLIDAYS: Councilman Thom
moved that inasmuch as Ch~zistmas Day and New Year's Day fall on Tuesdays this
year, and the City Offices will be closed on those dates, that the Mondays
preceeding these holidays, i.e., December 24 and December 31, 1973 also be
declared as holidays because of the high rate of absenteeism which is antici-
pated.
In answer to Council questioning, Mr. Garry McRae advised that one
day,s payroll amounts to $75,000 and in addition, Police and Fire and any
other personnel required to work on these dates despite the declaration of
holiday, would then receive overtime pay.
The foregoing motion died for lack of a second.
Mr. Murdoch stated that he recognized the reality of the situation
and that the City policy regarding the two days in question would be that
offices whereever possible could be operated on a skeleton crew, however any
persons who take the day off must use comp-time or vacation time, so that it
is not a free time arrangement.
REQUEST - RECONSIDERATION OF B~CYCLR TRAILS: In light of the energy crisis,
Councilman Thom remarked that he was of the opinion that many more bicycles
would be seen on the streets and that reconsideration of the bikeway systems
is warranted.
The remainder of the Council adhered to their former positions as
given in previous discussion on the matter, i.e., that the cost of striping
and signing a bicycle lane is not justified by any proven increase in bicycle
safety as a result; and that they would be opposed to removal of on-street
parking for purposes of implementing bicycle trails.
Mr. Murdoch remarked ~hat one of the areas which might possibly
warrant additional consideration is that of recreational bicycle trails using
perhaps the flood control channel, Southern California Eidson easements or
residential streets, where the parking and traffic conflict would be minimized.
He asked whether Council would have any objection to the joint investigation
of this aspect of bicycle trail system~ by Parks and Recreation and Develop-
ment Services Departments.
The City Council indicated no objection to the exploration of this
possibility.
Councilman Thom reiterated that other cities who have designated
bicycle trails have noticed a measurable degree of additional safety.
Councilman Sneegas noted that although he has requested statistics
on the.safety afforded by having a designated bicycle trail, no city has yet
been able to provide these.
No further action was taken by the City Council.
APPOINTMENT - ORANGE COUNTY MO~S~UITO ABATEMENT DISTRICT: Mayor Dutton reported
that Mr. Fred T. Krein has notified him that he can no longer accept the

quito Abatement District. Mayor Dutton thereupon moved to appoint Councilman
Sneegas to the Ora~ge County Mosquito Abatement District, replacing Mr. Krein
for the ensuing term ending December 31, 1975. Councilman Stephenson seconded
the motion. MOTION CARRIED.
Councilman Sneegas agreed to accept said appointment.

ORANGE COUNTY TRANSIT DISTRICT - ALTERNATIVE TRANSIT CORRIDORS STUDY: Supervisor
Ralph Clark stated that his capacity as Chairman of the Orange County Transit
District has proven to be the most challenging appointment he has received since
active in government. He remarked that this District is not an antiquated,
out-dated system with old equipment since Orange County has been primarily agri-
cultural and is now highly urbanized, therefore this is a whole new field and
an opportunity to develop a brand new modern system which will supply one of
the most needed things in the County today - transportation for the people.
Interest in the Orange County Transit District at this time is very
appropriate, since the O.C.T.D. is engaged in its Transit Corridor Study, which
Supervisor Clark commented was the most important step in Orange County since
the advent of the Santa Ana Freeway. He further voiced the opinion that Anaheim
is a key city in the proposed transit system, because of its size, of the fact
that it provides many points of terminus for public transportation, such as
Disneyland, the Stadium and Convention Center.
Supervisor Clark advised that the O.C.T.D. presentation has been
given to various community groups such as the Council on Aging and the Human
Relations Commission, as well for individual cities and the Executive Committee
meeting of the Orange County League of California Cities°
Supervisor Clark then related a brief history of the evolution of the
0.C.T.D. and the makeup of the five-member board which governs it. He commen-
ted that the District started operating its first buses in August of 1972, and
at that time had 5 buses which carried 25,000 passengers during the first
months. He compared this with October of 1973 during which 48 O.C.T.D. buses
carried 284,000 passengers. He advised that the first priority when the District
was formed was to provide service for the transit-dependent people. The District
then went into a schedule of expansion-of these services and hired a consultant
to prepare a program for the planned acquisition of 210 buses within five years..
The goal of the 0.C.T.D. is to provide superior bus service, called saturation
service,which will serve as the backbone of the entire transit system. He
remarked that the District Board recognizes that buses are not the complete
