Commission for a change of zone from County of Orange MI-10,000 to City of
Anaheim M-1 on Portions A and B; property described within the Orangethorpe-
La Palma Annexation.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC70-180,
recommended said reclassification be approved, subject to the following con-
ditions:
1. That dedication shall be made to the City of Anaheim on all
streets within the area according to the Circulation Element of the General
Plan - Highway Rights-of-Way Map, prior to the adoption of ordinances rezon-
ing the properties.
2. That all engineering requirements of the City of Anaheim such
as curbs and ~utters, sidewalks, street grading and paving, drainage facili-
ties, or other appurtenant work shall be complied with as required by the
City Engineer, and in accordance with standard plans and specifications on
file in the office of the City Engineer, at the time the property is devel-
oped.
3. That the owner of subject properties shall install street light-
ing on all streets within the area, as required by the Director of Public
Utilities and in accordance with standard plans and specifications on file
in the office of the Director of Public Utilities, at the time the property
is developed.
4. That a Preliminary Title Report shall be furnished prior to
the adoption of an ordinance rezoning the property, showing legal vesting
of title, legal description, and containing a map of the property.
5. That ordinances reclassifying the property shall be adopted
as each parcel is ready to comply with the conditions pertaining to such
parcel; provided, however, that the word "parcel" shall mean presently ex-
isting parcels of record, or any parcel or parcels approved by the City Coun-
cil for a lot split.
6. That plans for the development of subject property shall be
submitted to and approved by the Development Review Convnittee of the Develop-
~ent Services Department on the basis of compatibility of development, both
structurally and architecturally.
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts noted the location of subject
property.
Mayor Dutton asked if anyone wished to address the Council; there
being no respomse, declared the hearing closed.
Councilman Dutton requested clarification on Condition No. 6.
Mr. Roberts advised subject property is located within an area pre-
sently being studied by the Development Services Department Staff for a pos-
sible desi~nation as a scenic corridor. He added that one of the objectives
in the proposed overlay zone is to achieve the greatest amount of compatibil-
ity of ali uses that will be developed in this particular area.
Councilman I)utton stated that he did not feel approval of archi-
tectural and structural aspects of plans should be totally delegated to the
Development Services Department.
Assistant Director of Development Services Ronald Thompson, advised
that, although the Council formerly approved all plans for industrial develop-
ment this Often caused a delay for builders and, thus, only if there is a ques-
tion about the appropriateness of a proposed building is it now brought be-
fore the Council.

City Hall. Anaheim. Califorqia - COUNCIL MINUTES - October 20, 1970, 1:30 P.H.
Councilman Dutton stated he understood and approved of the De=
velopment Services Department approving the structural aspects of plans,
but he strongly objected to their havin~ the authority to approve archi-
tectural aspects. He added he appreciated the effort made to obtain high
quality and. vas aware of developers building only to minimum standards
for purely speculation.
Mr. Thompson recmmended, and the'CounCil agreed, Condition No.
6 be amended to read as follows:
"6. That plans for development of subject property shall be
submitted to the Development Services Department to de-
termine said development meets both the intent and Site
Development Standards of the H-1 Zone."

The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC70-
164, denied said variance.
Appeal from action taken by the City Planning Commission was
filed by Federal Sign and Signal Corporation, and public hearing scheduled
this date.
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts noted the location of subject
property, which covers an entire block, and advised that free-standing
signs had been~excluded from C-O Zones in an attempt to develop attrac-
tive office areas, free from the mass of free-standing signs prevalent
in'other cmmnercial zones. Mr. Roberts advised that permits have been
taken out by the Applicant for two wall signs to be affixed to the top
part of the high-rise buildin$, and these would be 138 feet from the
ground, with 250 square-feet of display area on each sism.
Council questioning determined that the requested signs would
be to identify the proposed bank, *ad the signs already approved for the
top of the building, plus the possibility of window signing would give
ample identification, since this is the only high-rise building in the
area at this time.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - October 20, 1970, 1:30 P.M.
Assistant Director of Development Services Ronald Thompson, advised
that the Development Services Staff had explained the C-O zoning code to the
Applicant and the Architectural Agent at the time the variance was filed.
Mayor Dutton asked if the Applicant or his Agent was present and
wished to address the Council.
Jack Barham, of Federal Sign and Signal Corporation, 1100. North
Main Street, Los Angeles, Agent, and Mr. Lowry, Architect, were present.
Architectural renderings depicting the size of the requested signs in relation
to the bank building were reviewed by the City Council. It was Mr. Barham's
opinion the two free-standing signs would have a better appearance than cov-
ering 20% of the wall surface with a sign, as would be permissible under the
Code. He added, however, that they did not intend to cover 20% of the wall
surface with a sign.

PUBLIC HEARING - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO, 1201: Submitted by Max F. and May E.
Hiltscher, to establish a carwash with accessory gasoline sales on C-1 pro-
perty located at the southeast corner of State College Boulevard and Placen-
tia Avenue.
The City Planning Comaission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC70-162,
denied said conditional use permit.
Appeal from action taken by the City Planning Co-w, ission was filed
by Tax Sheltered Investments, Inc.,Agents for the Applicant, and public hear-
ing scheduled this date.
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts noted the location of subject
property, the existing uses and zoning in the immediate area, and briefed
the evidence submitted to and considered by the City Planning Commission.
Mr. Robert8 advised that the City Planning Co-w, ission contended allowing
such a venture at this site would create hazardous traffic situations, both
at insTess and egress points, and the fact that one service station on that
site had been discontinued, indicated the traffic pattern was too intense
for an automotive business.
Mayor Dutton asked if the Applicant or his Agent was present and
wished to address the Council.
Jerry Fleming, Tax Sheltered Investments, Inc., 14724 Ventura Bou-
levard, Sherman Oaks, Agent, stated they do' not anticipate a large enough
volume of business to cause traffic congestion since their normal volume

rarely exceeds 200 to 250 cars any 10-hour day. He contended the proposed
facility Would allow for stacking of 30 automobiles before the carwash
trance, and since car owners would vacuum their own cars there would'be no
delay caused by that operation, and also two attendants at the carwash exit
would wipe windows, thus assuring no delay at that point.
Mr. Fleming advised of their facilities in Garden Grove and River-
side, both sites being less desirable than subject site. He' explained the
proposed operation and added washing the exterior of the car is free with
the purchase of gasoline.
Attention was also called to both entrances and one exit °nBal-
sam Avenue, with only one exit proposed on State College Boulevard.
Files were reviewed by the City Council.
Mayor Dutton asked if anyone else wished to address the Council;
there being no response, declared the hearing closed.

RECLASSIFICATION NO. 63-64-62 - REPORT RE PLANS: Report of the Development Ser-
vices Department was submitted recommending that Condition No. 10 of Resolu-
tion No. 64R-200 (Reclassification No. 63-64-62) be amended to read as fol-
lows:
"That plans for the development of any portion of subject property
shall be submitted to the Development Review Board; and provided that any
plans for any portion of the property in Portion "N' shall comply with all
provisions of the R-3, Multiple-Family Residential Zone; and provided further
that .plans for Portion "B" shall conform to all provisions of the C-l, Gen-
eral Co~mnercial Zone;"
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts explained that, since the Resolu-
tion of Intent to R-3 for this area was adopted, a number of variances have
b~ approved which provide for greater densities than the project intended,
and thus, the Development Services Staff is recommending that perhaps the
Resolution should be amended to allow greater density.
Councilman Dutton stated that, inasmuch as the previous variances
for greater densities had been approved, even though he was opposed at the
time, everybody should be accOrded the same treatment; however, he questioned
the Development Review Board would be able to determine how many units could
be built in a complex if the proposed amendment is approved.
Mr. Roberts advised that under the proposed amendment the Develop-
ment ReviewBoard could approve an application as long as it met the require-
ments of the R-3 Zone.
Councilman Dutton stated such an amendment would allow as many as
36units per net acre, and he did not feel enough circulation had been pro-
vided for Webster Avenue to allow that high a density.

No. 7118, (Reclassification No. 68-69-98 and Variance No. 2097), together
with reports of the Development Services Department and City Engineer.
Assistant Director of Development Services Ronald Thompson ad-
vised subject property consisted of approximately'40 acres oB the south
side of Santa Aha Canyon Road, between Solomon Drive and Walnut Canyon
Road, previously approved for R-1 Zoning, although not developed to date.
Mr. Thompson advised that plans that have been submitted for de-
v~opment do not appear to meet the purpose and intent of high quality
that had been discussed by the City Planning Commission, City Council and
area residents as desirable for that area; He advised that consultation
with the developer resulted in a revised plan being submitted; however,
he recommended that, prior to granting additional exter~ions of time,
steps be taken to assure the type of development proposed would be in
conformance and compatible with present community developments.
Councilman Dutton suggested the developer be ,required to sub-
mit plans to the City Council to assure that high-quality developments
will be constructed in the area. He stated he believed some construc-
tion by George Holstein III in the area did not meet the high stand-
ards intended by the Council, such as cedar shingles,shake or tile
roofs, and it was his desire to assure this would not happen again.
Councilman Duttonmoved to deny the requested extension of time to
Tentative Tracts Nos. 7003, Revision No.1, and 7118. Councilman Thom
seconded the motion.
Mr. Thompson advised discUssion with Mr. Cole, of Downey Savings

Councilman Dutton withdrew his motion to deny requested exten-
sions of time. Councilman Thom withdrew his second.

a limitation of three bedrooms in the 1,200 to 1,300-square foot homes.

built in subject tract shall be subject to review
and apProval by the Director of. Development Ser-
vices, and any appeal to the action taken by said
Director shall be considered at public hearings
before the Planning Commission and City Council."
The City Clerk submitted correspondence from Rinker' Develop-
ment Corporation dated October 16, 1970, requesting withdrawal of the
request for approval of Final Map, Tract No. 4476, Revision No. 3.
The City Clerk submitted excerpts of the City Planning Com-
mission meting of ·October 19, 1970, recommending that Tentative Tract
Hap No. 4476, Revision No. 3 be approved, subject to the following con-
ditions:
1. That should this subdivision be developed as more than
one subdivision, each' subdivision thereof shall be submitted in tenta-
tive form for approval.
2. That the approval of Tentative Map of Tract No. 4476, Re-
vision No. 3, is granted subject to the completion of Reclassification
No. 68-69-28.
3. That the alignment of the tract boundary adjacent to the
freeway right-of-way shall be approved by the State Division of Highways.
4. That a 6-foot masonry wall shall be constructed on the
southwesterly property lim of Lot Nos. 1 through 13.
5. .That all lots within this tract shall be served by under-
ground utilities.
6. That drainage of subject property shaI1 be disposed of in
a manner satisfactory to the City Engineer.
Assistant Director of DevelopmentServices Ronald Thompson
recommended the condition requiring approval of development plans by
the Council be considered.
City Attorney Joseph B. Geisler felt that the goal of the
Council was to obtain the cooperation of the developers and he was of
the opinion that by making known the type and quality of homes that
would be approved for the area, full cooperation would be realized
without setting forth specific restrictions.
At ~he invitation of Hayor Dutton,' Harry Rinker, of Rinker
Development Company, addressed the Council.
Hr. Rinker advised that at the time he sold property in the
Santa Ann Canyon area on which homes subsequently were constructed that
did not meet the desires of the Council and residents, he fully expec-
ted that high-~uality homes would be built on the land. That subsequent
discussion with Nr. Orsborn resulted in a suggestion that he submit a
letter requesting development plans be approved by the Development Ser-
vices Director prior to issuance of a building permit on subject pro-
perty.
Councilman Dutton stated he would object giving the Director
of Development Services authority to approve development plans, rather
than the City Council, as he felt, if it is illegal to require specifics
in the type and quality of construction, the Council should have the
opportunity to discuss the quality of homes desired with the develop-

City Hall, Anaheim, Califprnta - COUNCIL MINtri~S - October 20, 1970, 1:30 P.M.
Mr. Rinker suggested the Development Services Department could ap-
prove plans if they were of the quality desired; if not, then they could be
referred to the City Council.
Councilman Dutton reiterated his belief that final approval should
be' given by.~lected officials.
At the suggestion of Councilman Stephenson, Mayor Dutton invited
members of the audience to'address the Council.
Bob McQueen, 4831 McKinnon Drive, presented a petition purportedly
containing 844 signatures of Santa Ana Canyon area residents, requesting the
City Council adopt ordinances designating only single-unit 'family dwellings
in the Santa Aha Canyon area; that single-familystructures in the Santa Aha
Canyon area have a minimum of 1,525 square feet; that minimum lot size for
the Santa Ana Canyon area be a buildable, 7,200 square feet.
Councilman Dutton advised that both the City Planning Commission
and City Council were presently investigating such possibilities, but re-
minded Mr. McQueen that the area between the railroad tracks and the river,
on the north side, would be considered for higher densities.
Councilman Thom invited Mr. Carden, 4323 Bainbridge Avenue, to ad-
dress the Council.
Mr. Carden stated that at the time he had moved into the Canyon area,
two and one-half to three years ago, his taxes were about $900.00; with the
construction of the Holstein Homes he had approached the Assessor about re-
ducing his taxes because of these homes, and they subsequently were lowered
to about $760.00 per year. He stated he felt his taxes should be lowered even
more, because of these homes; however, he objected to the value of his home
being reduced by Iow quality housing developments.
A1 Hyatt, 251 Orange Acres Drive, President of the Peralta Hills
F~>meowners' Association, stated his Association urges that ali extensions of
time be denied, and all Applicants 'be required to refile, thus making it pos-
sible to start over with desired development in the Canyon.
Mrs. Sharon Flannagan, 4415 Addington Drive, adjacent to the Hol-
stein Hacienda Homes development, stated the homeowners in her area felt they
had been let down by allowing the Holstein development, and now were requesting
that the Council not allow future developments, such as referred to in this
meeting, where there are four bedrooms in 1,200 square feet of living space.
In reply to questions of Mr. Rinker on why low cost homes were being
built on land sold by them, Mr. Rinker advised he was in accord with the desires
of the Council and residents for high quality homes in the area, and asked that
his letter of October 9, 1970 to the Council, be read. Councilman Dutton read
Mr. Rinker's letter and, as requested, presented a copy of the letter to Mr.
HcQueen, for the Nohl Ranch Homeowners' Association.
The Director of Development Services advised that he and Mr. Rinker
had met with Mr. Holstein at the time he was developing his plans, and Mr.
Holstein had assured them the homes he constructed would meet their request
for high'quality;, unfortunately, however, the resultant development did not
comply with their requests. Mr. Orsborn a~ded that Mr. Rinker is now in pos-
session of the re~aining third of that property, which will be developed by
Presley Development Company, and this company is expected to develop homes
such as desired by the area residents.

Councilman Dutton concurred with Mr.. Orsborn's statement that
Mr. Rinker has attempted to live up to the desires of the City Council,
where development in the Canyon is concerned.
Mrs. John Brewer, 412 North Red Rock, adjacent to the Holstein
development, asked if it was true that some of these homes would be Feder-
ally subsidized for families with a minimum of three children.
Assistant Director· of Development Services Ronald Thompson ad-
vised that he had heard up to 25% of the homes in that tract could be sub-
sidized under an F.H.A. 235-I Mortgage Subsidy.
Mr. McQueen advisedhe had checked into this rumor With.ahe
F.H.A. and learned that 55 homes in the Holstein development qualified
for this subsidy, which required a minimum of three children ina.four-
bedroom home not exceeding $24,000.00 inprice; or a three-bedroom home
not exceeding-$21,000.00 in price. Mr. McQueen stated that, at present,
the homes that have been subsidized have from five toten children and
the existing schools cannot accommodate such an influx of children.
Mr. McQueen advised that his investigation showed there are simi-
lar developments in Laguna Canyon and La Palma, with two more scheduled
for Riverside; however, he added, that F.H.A. has run out of money at this
time for this program, but do want to subsidize more when additional funds
become available.
Councilman Pebley suggested the Homeowners' Association contact
the school board about additional schools as soon aslpossible.
Mr. McQueen advised that a school' bond issue recently, hadbeen
passed.
Councilman Clark announced that, due to Mr. Rinker being active-
ly engaged in his campaign for Board of Supervisors, he would abstain from
voting on this agenda item.

.,City Hall,, Anaheim, C. al~forni~ - COUNCIL. MINUTES - October 20, 1970, 1:.30
Mr. Harding reported the Golf Course could be financed out of
a Special Fund Doctrine - i.e., financed by the revenues from the ex-
isting golf course and the proposed golf course, which would be con-
structed in phases of 9 holes at a time; 9 holes to be an executive-
type course of approximately 6,300 yards, and an 18-hole layout to be
a championship course of over 7,000 yards. That the golf course pro-
perty would be purchased on a no-money-down basis, with 6% interest,
with interest-only payments for the first two years while the course
is under construction.
Mr. Harding stated it was proposed the park sites would con-
sist of 25 acres at the inlet ramp of the existing City reservoir, 23
acres adjacent to the Orange Unified High School site, and the remain-
der of the acreage to be at locations agreed upon by both parties, and
wherever possible, adjacent to a school site.
Mr. Harding advised that, in addition, the buyers of the. Nohl
Ranch would, during the 1971 calendar, year, give the City $100,000.00
to be used toward construction of the golf course clubhouse and, during
the same period, would install swimming pools, tennis courts, and other
recreational facilities having a value of $100,000.00, at a location ap-
proved by the City of Anaheim and using City, approved plans for construc-
tion.
Mr. Harding advised the Administrative Staff considered this
a very good proposition, particularly in view of the fact that, at the
time the Walnut Canyon area was purchased, ;the City agreed to maintain
the downhill stream (Walnut Canyon Creek) from the dam to the Santa Ana
Canyon Road, and the purchase of the surrounding property for a golf
course would allow incorporation of the Creek in the open space area,
making it less expensive to maintain than if the property was sold to a
private developer.
In answer to a query by Councilman Stephenson, Mr. Harding ad-
vised that by raising green fees 50¢ it was anticipated that, by'Fiscal
Year 1975-76 the City could realize a net return of $160,000.00 a year
from this proposed golf course with the developing monies completely re-
covered by 1977-78. Mr. Harding presented a petition stating no objec-
tion to increasing green fees, purportedly containing 159 signatures ob-
tained in one day at the existing golf course.
In answer to Councilman Dutton, Mr. Harding advised that the
present green fees are below those charged at the majority of other
Orange County courses.
Councilman Dutton, noting that the draft of the PropoSed pur-
chasing agreement between the City of Anaheim and Grant Corporation, re-
quires all gross revenues from the existing and projected golf courses
to be deposited in a special fund as security for payments due on the
purchase, inquired what maintenance costs would run. Mr. Harding re-
plied that all monies in the special fund at the end of the year, not
needed for the land payments due, would be available as dispersion as
desired. He added that under the agreement a special fund of $210,000.
would be on deposit as security for a payment; this fund would be draw-
ing interest all the time it was on deposit and not needed, and would
be returned at the time the land was paid for. ~
Councilman Dutton asked why the cost per acre of the parks
land was lower than that for the golf course.
Mr. Harding replied that the golf course site property prob-
ably is the most developable land on the Nohl Ranch, almost all of it
usable for home sites, and some land in that area already has been sold
for as much as $24,000.00 an acre. He also stated, in reply to Council-
man Dutton, that, under the present laws, if there ever should be a flood
or some such disaster, Anaheim would have far less liability from owner-
ship of this land if it was used as a golf course.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES -October 20, 1970, 1:30 P.M.
Referring to the 65 acres of land proposed for purchase as park sites,
Mr. Harding advised it was the Staff's recommendation that a $200,000.00 down-
payment be made during Fiscal Year 1971-72, which would approximately equal
what is spent yearly by the C~ty for park acquisitions. After the initial
down-payment, the remaining cost would be paid by park development fees from
benefiting projects.
In reply to Councilman Dutton, Mr. Harding advised that street de-
velopment would be the joint obligation of the City and developers of property
on the other side of the street.
Mr. Harding recommended first reading, of an ordinance authorizing
the Purchase and setting up the Special Fund DoCtrine, as the proposed pur-
chasers of Nohl Ranch have a commitment that must be met bY October 30, 1970.
Mr. Harding advised that under the proposed ordinance, the special fund would
comprise only revenues from the golf courses and no tax monies of the City are
pledged. He added that interest from the special fund monies would be free
from Federal income tax liability, which is the-reason negotiations are at 6%
interest. He also stated that there should be no possessory interest tax, since
the property would be owned, in fee, by the City.
City Attorney Joseph Bo Geisler advised the legal interpretations
of the County Assessor make it difficult to say whether there would be a pos-
sessory interest tax on any transaction; however, it was his opinion there
would not be possessory interest on the golf course itself, however, there
would be such a tax imposed on the golf professional and the food concession-
aire. Mr. Geisler added that the County Assessor, however, probably would at-
tempt to levy a possessory interest tax against the golf course.
Mr. Harding advised that Grant Corporation has a 10-year program
set up to develop the total 4,200 acres of Nohl Ranch and the land value would
increase with development. He also advised that annexation proceedings would
commence immediately if the proposed land purchase is authorized.
In answer to questions on what type of development would be under-
taken by the purchasers for the rest of the land around the golf course, Mr.
Harding advised that would be a zoning matter and is not a part of the pro-
posed purchase agreement. Councilman Clark suggested the plans be investi-
gated.
Councilman Dutton stated he had heard rumors the Nohl Ranch purchas-
ers may merge with another company, and the City constructing a golf course
for them to develop around, rather than having to put in their own, would in-
crease land values.
Mr. Geisler noted a recent article in Golf Magazine lamending the
loss of "green belts" in urban areas because most privately-owned courses do
not succeed and eventually are developed for shopping centers or homes. He
cited private golf courses in Southern California that have been discontinued.
Mr. Geisler stated that Golf Magazine proposed the Federal Government inter-
vene in the interest of ecology and supplement private courses to keep them
in operation. He added that, to his knowledge, no municipally-owned golf
course has gone out of business.
Mr. Harding referenced the purchase of Willowick Golf Course by the
City of Garden Grove, and the purchase of Rio Hondo Golf Course by the City of
Downey, as examples of private courses being taken over by municipalities, and
noted that property taxes make it necessary for green fees to be too high to
allow private courses to stay in business.
Mr. Harding recommended the Council effect a first reading of an
ordinance setting up a special revenue fund and approving the acquisition of
land for a new golf course, and then meet again Wednesday, October 28, 1970,
at 4:30 P.M,, for further discussion and possible final action.
