RECLASSIFICAIION 60-61-4: Request of Calark Corporation (Robert E. Johnson) for
approval of revised plans for R-3 development, property located on the west
side of Euclid Avenue between Ball Road and Cerritos Avenue, was continued
from the meeting of January 30, 1962, resulting from a tie vote of the City
Council on this issue°
Mr. 3ohnson addressed the Council advising that he still had the
property in escrow; however, after consulting with property owners in the
area, apparently the general feeling is that this property could best be
developed for medical or professional use. He thereupon requested this
matter be held in abeyance to allow additional time for the preparation of
necessary plans.
In accordance with Mr. Johnson's request, action by the City
Council was ordered deferred for sixty days, on motion by Councilman Chand-
ler, seconded by Councilman Coons. MOTION CARRIED.
PUBLIC DANCE PERMIT: Request of Mr. William S. ~acTavish for a Dance Permit at
135~ West Center Street, was held over from the me,ting of January 30, 1962
for further investigation°
Correspondence was submitted received from Mr. MacTavish, explain-
ing in detail their programs (copies of which were delivered to each
Councilman).
Mr. Murdoch advised that the Chief of Police's recommendations
for denial were based upon experience of similar public dances that have
occurred at this and other locations; however, upon reading the letter
submitted by Mr. MacTavish, there may be a difference between the type of
dance requested by Mr. MacTavish and the type of dances upon which the
Chief has based his recon~nendations.
Mro Darrell Dean, 7195 Hoover Way, Buena Park, addressed the
Council urging the granting of the Dance Permit, and further elaborating
on the details of the dance and entertainment° He advised that attendance
is limited to two hundred or two hundred and ten people, and that the dance
closes at twelve o'clock midnight.
Discussion continued and the meeting with Assistant City Attorney
Joseph Geisler was briefed by Mr. Dean, wherein the activity was ruled a
"public dance" Also noted was the fact that a "public dance" requires
C-3 Zoning, which would necessitate the reclassification of this property.
It was determined that further investigation and reports relative to the
safety of the building should be obtained before final action is taken on
the application. At the conclusion of the discussion, it was moved by
Councilman Coons, seconded by Councilman Cha~dler, that this matter be
referred to the City Manager, City Attorney, Fire Chief and Police Chief
for a meeting to determine the exact nature of the operation intended and
a definite recommendation. MOTION CARRIED.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 6~ 1962~ 3:00 P.M.
Mr. 3ack Libbey, of Capitol Records, addressed the Council commen-
ding the activity of this group and recommending favorable consideration of
their request°
It was determined by the City Council that this dance activity
is not to continue or be permitted until approval is obtained.
FIFTEEN MINUTE ZONES~ LFt~ON-CHARIRES STREETS: Request of the Pacific Telephone
and Telegraph Company for fifteen minute zone,.the first three car spaces on
the north side of Chartres Street, and also three car spaces fronting the
building located at 200 North Lemon Street, was ordered deferred, pending
report and recommendations from the Downtown Merchants' Committee of the
Chamber of Commerce, on motion by Councilman Fry, seconded by Councilman
Coons. MOTION CARRIED.
CENTRAL LIBRARY PLANS - AMENDMENT: Request from Mr. Joe Jordan, Architect, for
approval of a specification substitution, and approval of installation of
wet stand pipes in the basement, and fire alarm system throughout the build-
ing in lieu of a sprinkler system in the basement only, was submitted.
Mr. Jordan, Architect, stated technically this is not a request
for a substitution of specifications, it is~ in fact, a request for relief
from a Code requirement requiring sprinkling of basements. He related the
reasons this is normally required, and how conditions differ in this
instance~ explaining the safety measures that have already been taken into
consideration° He further advised, with the storage of books and paper
material in the basement, and in the event a fire occurs, damage from water
could exceed the damage from the fire. He stated they had never intended
to sprinkle any of the floors, that a full fire alarm system installation
was planned~
Mro Robert Phillips, City Fire Marshall, addressed the Council
strongly recommending against the waiving of said requirement. He
stated this Involved three Codes~ the Uniform Building Code, the Fire
Prevention Code, and the State Fire Marshall Code, and felt waiver of this
requirement could establish a precedent. He further reported that at the
present time, occupancy is being withheld on two buildings in Anaheim
because the basements are not being sprinkled° He felt the cost of
sprinkling would be quickly recovered by the reduced fire insurance rate.
Mr. Jordan advised that if the building was partially sprinkled,
that is, the basement only~ the City would receive practically no decrease
in fire insurance rate; however, if the total building was sprinkled, a
seventy-five per cent saving would be realized plus the advantage allowed
%o publicpropertyo He estimated that the fire rate on this building would
be fifty cents per Hundred Dollars, and if the total building was sprinkled,
it would be reduced to approximately five cents per Hundred Dollars~ He
explained that the original planning was a two story development with base-
ment above grade, so that this expenditure for sprinkling system would not
be required; that the budget could include the sprinkling of the basement,
but could not include sprinkling the entire building in order to reduce the
fire rate, as this would cost between $35~000~ and $40,000° For this
reason, financial relief would be required° Mr. Jordan stated that any
changes for sprinkling the entire building that might be required in the
specifications could be handled within the schedule that has been projected~
because only one subcontractor would be affected~ however~ the system has to
be supplied through an eight inch main without metering~ and would require
an outside vault°
Mro Murdoch stated as far as pipe and installation of fixtures
are concerned, this could be handled through the Public Works Department;
however, regarding the construction of the vault, he felt this should be
a part of the contract.

City Hall~ 68aheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 6~ 1962, 3:00 P.M.
Mr. Jordan estimated the cost of the sprinkling system to be in
the neighborhood of fifty cents per square foot, or approximately $35,000.
or $40,000°
Fire Chief Stringer recommended sprinkling the entire building,
and explained the initial and greatest cost would be for the basement; the
cost of the balance of the building would be nominal~
At the conclusion of the discussion, it was moved by Councilman
Chandler, seconded by Councilman Thompson, that the Council authorize the
inclusion of the sprinklers on ali three floors plus the riser for the
future floor° An9 additional funds required for the cost of said sprinklers
to be taken from the Contingency Fund° MOTION CARRIED.

ship situation existed~ Mr. Murdoch answered that this could be the case,
however due to the lack of time, only the standards and the deviations
therefrom were investigated; that the plot plan and other particulars
pertaining to this corner had not been checked.
Councilman Coons, upon reviewing the plot plan, was of the
opinion that this problem could be solved between Mr. Tom and Mr. Maddox.

after the hearing had been held. For this reason, they had not been

exists; further, trailer park developments come under very stringent regu-
lations. He also reported that in considering a garden type apartment

Petitions requesting certain deed restrictions in the event the

submitted by Mrs. Gladyce Brunner (copies of petition statement furnished
each Councilman).
Mr~ Martin Kreidt noted the location of the property and the use
and zoning in the immediate area. He summarized the evidence submitted %o
the City Planning Commission resulting in their findings and recommendations
for R-3 zoning limited %o single story construction. Mr. Kreidt also
advised that as a result of a request received from the Savanna School
District, da%ed January 16, 1962, the Planning Commission directed the
preparation of a precise plan study of the area extending from Knott
Avenue to Ball Road. The Precise Plan Study was considered by the City
Planning Commission at their meeting yesterday (February 5, 1962), and
as a result, the City Planning Commission's recommendations were that
development of those properties fronting on Ball Road be in accordance
with R-3 Zone requirements limited to single story struc%ureso
Mrs° Robert Brunner, 3302 West Deerwood Drive, addressed %he
Council presenting a map indicating the location of the subject property
in relation to the location of those in opposition. Mrs. Brunner sugges-
ted C-1 zoning~ limited %o business and professional uses, as in her
opinion~ R-3 development would not be suitable on Ball Road because of the
increased density in the area and the excessive traffic on Ball Road.
Mr~ Norman 3ohnson~ 3302 West Glen Wood Drive, addr~ sed the
Council presenting a petition purportedly containing 318 signatures pro-
'testing the R-3 zoning in the general area of Knott Avenue, Western Avenue,
and Ball Road~ He reminded the Council that the request is for C-1 zoning,
and questioned the City Planning Commission's recommendations of R-3.
At Mr. Johnson:s request, those in support of his presentation
of opposition were asked to stand°
A map marked "Exhibit A" was presented indicating the zoninq of
the surrounding properties. Mr. 3ohnson reported that the existing h~mes
in the area were valued from $20,000. to $30,000., and further reported
that approximately 200 apartment units presently exist near Western Avenue~
and more than 500 units are under construction.
Mr. 3ohnson then presented "Exhibit B" indicating how the entire
area could be developed, in the best interest of all concerned~ into residen-
tial homes. He related statistics on the value of %he property and the
number of R-1 lots that could be realized, whereby the land owner would
receive a greater return from an R-1 development than from an R-3. He
stated that the overall area was considered because %hey were aware of the
fact that others in the area would request R-3 Zoning. He felt if an
overall plan of the entire area could be approved by the City Council, it
would eliminate future public hearings on separate parcels. Mr. Johnson
then summarized the basis of %heir opposition briefly:
5463
City Hall~ Anahei~California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 6, 1962, 3:00 P.M.
(a) The trend to devalue existing properties.
(b) Increased noise,
(c) Traffic congestion.
(d) School density.
(e) The creation of the need for additional park facilities.
Exhibit B was reviewed by the City Council, and it was noted that
the two parcels directly south of Deerwood, one being the property under.
consideration, were recommended to be in the Administrative - Professional
Zone; that the balance of the entire area was recommended to be R-1.
Mr. Johnson was complimented by the City Council on his presen-
tation (Mr. Johnson retained Exhibits A and B).
Mro Kreidt reported on the evidence and consideration given by
the City Planning Commission at their meeting held yesterday concerning
Precise Plan Study 39-6-4. He noted the area suggested to be zoned C-i,
R-3 and R-l, and advised that this plan study will be forwarded to the
City Council without recommendations.
Mro 3. Harold Smith, applicant, 3405 West Ball Road, advised of
the size of their property and explained their plan to develop a commercial
building comprising approximately seven small retail stores, one store %o
be occupied by him for his own electrical business. He stated the project
is not being built for re-sale, and that they would be happy %o work with
the community on a nicer type construction, which would be to their
benefit as well as the area° That in considering the price of the land,
the cost of an R-3 development would be prohibitive. In his opinion, the
loaning agencies would be the first to control the over-development of
commercial° He further reported %hat their residence is on Ball
Road approximately one block from the subject proper%y, and they %oo would
oppose any R-3 development on Ball Road because.of traffic and other
conditions° He further advised that %hey have dedicated necessary property
for the Ball Road street widening program, and installed engineering
improvements~ He requested favorable consideration of his application,
thereby making it possible for him to establish his business on this
property~
Mr. Herb Lightle, 1212 South Oakhaven Drive, addressed the Council
in opposition to commercial and R-3 zoning, and requested the area be
retained for single family residences.
Mro Frank Atzet, 3253 West Ball Road, owner of adjacent property,
addressed the Council advising that a% the present time he had no plans for
immediate development of his property.
Mro Michael Zehra, 3406 Glen Holly Drive, addressed the Council

that the location bounded by Broadway, Harbor Boulevard, Santa Aha Street,
and the west line of the City owned property, and the location bounded by
Broadway, Center Street, Claudina and Philadelphia Streets, be placed on

Fry, Schutte.
Chandler, Coons and Thompson.
None.
Councilman Coons stated that the reason for his negative vote
on the previous motion was because in his opinion this could preclude any
other possible choice of another site, and coupled wiqh an issue of this
nature should be a bond issue for the construction thereof. Councilman
Chandler added his endorsement to this statement.
Councilman Thompson moved it be the sense of this Council that
at such time as the City is prepared %o build a City Hall and offer a
bond issue to the people, that we ask the people %o decide on a location
at that time° Councilman Coons seconded the motion.

going motion was duly passed and adopted.

Owners Association~ recommending that a measure be placed on the ballot
making the office of Mayor an elective office, subject to the will of the
people by popular vote.
Discussion was held regarding the duties of a Mayor in a General
Law City as compared to a Charter type City, and as this is normally in
conjunction with a change %o Charter form of Government, Coun~lman Chandler
felt that the Council had a further duty to the people to study %his issue
before placing the me.~sure on the ballot.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - February 6, 1962, 3:00 P.M.
Councilman Coons suggested we acknowledge receipt of the letter
from the Orange County Property Owners Association and thank them for their
interest, advising them that it is our feeling that the issue involved in
their recommendation goes beyond the point of just an election of a Mayor
by popular vote, such as area representation, district representation, the
possibility of more than a five man Council, the formation of the Charter
for the City, and other items of a similar nature; that all these things
should be studied in considering a Charter form of Government.
