RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEM: The following was submitted relative to a rapid transit
system in Anaheim:
r
A. ANAHEIM RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEMS, INC.- Pursuant to request of
A.R.T.S. to further consider application for a rapid transit franchise,
originally presented December 24, 1963, (DARTS) and Resolution No. 67R-50l,
duly published in the Anaheim Bulletin September 7, 1967, public hearing
was held before the City Council October 3, 1967, and continued to Decem-
ber 5, 1967, at which time said hearing was closed and decision continued
to December 19, 1967, January 9, 1968, and to this date for possible re-
wording of certain sections of required ordinance granting said franchise.
Letter of opposition from J.W. Mullin, Personal Conveyor, received
December 19, 1967.
B. REQUEST FOR FRANCHISE - J. W. MULLIN, PERSONAL CONVEYOR RAPID
TRANSIT SYSTEMS. Continued from December 19, 1967, January
9, 1968, and to this date.
C. SPELLMAN AIR RAIL - OFFERING DEMONSTRATION OF THE SPELLMAN
AIR RAIL SYSTEM.
D. REQUEST FOR FRANCHISE AND PUBLIC HEARING, JANUARY 30. 1968 -
UNIVERSAL DESIGN LIMITED.
E. HAMER RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEM - REQUEST OF RICHARD ATKINSON for
permission to present the Hamer Rapid Transit System before decision is
made on the type of transit to be used.
n
Councilman Krein advised that due to the number of proposals pre-
sented to the City, in his opinion the proposal fora rapid transit system
was premature. Further, under present circumstances, he would disapprove
of a forty-year franchise to anyone.
Reference was made to conversation with the late Walt Disney, and
Councilman Krein reported that Mr. Disney disapproved of any transportation
system tying in with the Disneyland system, nor did he feel Anaheim was ready
for such a system.
It was Councilman Krein's op~n~on that the systems so far presented
were "Amusement Park Rides," and if a system is to be considered, it should
be one extending beyond the Anaheim City Limits, into Los Angeles and beyond,
tying into the system they, or other cities and counties may eventually de-
velop.
Councilman Dutton felt it unnecessary to look to Los Angeles or
anywhere else for leadership in this field, and noted that the granting of
the franchise would provide for a feasibility study which, in all probabil-
ity, would consider tying in to other types of systems.
Councilman Schutte agreed with the position taken by Councilman
Krein, with reference to a forty-year franchise, and also questioned the
advantage of a system transporting passengers only within Anaheim.
Reference was made to franchises granted to railroad companies
which, it was noted, were not granted to one company, but to all.
n
Mayor Pebley requested an opinion from the City Manager regard-
ing the forty-year period of a franchise.
Mr. Murdoch advised, according to his understanding, the proposed
ordinance was worded so that it is not an exclusive franchise.
Mr. Murdoch felt the question that must be decided by the City
Council was '~at would a transportation system of the nature proposed by
those requesting the franchise do for the City of Anaheim and its citizenry."
68-54
Cit Hall Anaheim California - COUNCIL MINUIES - Januar 30 1968 1: 30 P.M.
Councilman Krein questioned the advantage of granting a "non-exclusive
franchise."
Mr. Murdoch advised that the advantage to the franchise holder would
be in the area of obtaining necessary rights-of-way.
Councilman Chandler, in questioning the forty-year period proposed
in the franchise, called attention to the term of franchise granted to the l
Bell Telephone Company, Southern Counties Gas Company, and othe~.. He was of ; .
the opinion that the forty years was only.a.fiat in thebegfnning, for two years
of stuay as to lIthat would be feasible for the City of Anaheim, and thereupon called
attention to Section 13 of the proposed ordinance, providing that the franchise
holder must be in construction within two years or the franchise was void.
Councilman Chandler noted the need for transportation in the area,
and the possible future value of a feasibility study, such as the one proposed.
In his opinion, the applicant should be given the opportunity they request,
if it could be determined the City would not be jeopardized.
Councilman Chandler further noted that a study was the first require-
ment which must be either provided by the City or by private enterprise. He
stated he would be reluctant to grant a franchise for any specific type of
system; that any franchise granted should be on the basis of a general study
of all systems. ARTS, in this instance, appeared to be the only applicant
intending to conduct such a study.
Mr. Geisler reported that if it was the Council's intention to grant
the franchise by adoption of the ordinance in its amended form,it would require
republication and a rehearing; however, an indication approving the form of fran-
chise could be expressed by motion, with official action taken after the repub-
lication and rehearing.
Further discussion was held, at the conclusion thereof, Councilman
Krein moved that the City of Anaheim deny issuing a franchise to anyone.
Councilman Schutte seconded the motion. Roll Call Vote was requested by
Councilman Dutton.

franchise at this time.

the City of Anaheim and its citizens.

Later in the meeting Mr. Chas. D. Phipps, representative of U~-
versal Design, Ltd., requested to be heard in accordance with the schedu1ed
agenda Item 4-D.
Mr. Phipps was advised that the only issue before the City Council
was the matter of granting a franchise to ARTS, which public hearing was de-
clared closed at a previous meeting, and pursuant to motion made at this
meeting, the City Council took the position 'of not granting a franchise to
anyone.
Councilman Krein questioned what could be gained, in view of the
action just taken by the City Council.
Mr. Phipps replied that their company is offering a feasibility
study within six months, with a complete package, including the type of
system.
Mr. Geisler explained to Mr. Phipps the issue before the City
Council, and advised that following the hearing held on the application
of ARTS, many other requests for franchise, including theirs, were sub-
mitted. All such requests and correspondence subsequently received had
been scheduled on the agenda for Council information and possible action.
n
It was then agreed by the City Council that Mr. Phipps be per-
mitted to address the Council.
Mr. Phipps thereupon explained the Westinghouse Air Brake system,
and further stated it was necessary to have a concept or vehicle, in order
to secure a feasibility report, as cost analysis, operational utilization,
and maintenance are determined in the report as to whether it is practical
or not. He further advised that their company has the experience, and is
presently in the field of building rapid transit systems.
Pictures of various installations were available to the City
Council to view.
Mr. Phipps stated they were prepared to offer proposal of a ten-
mile route from Disneyland to Knott's Berry Farm, that could include Anaheim
city, the Broadway Shopping Center, and possibly Buena Park Shopping Center.
In answer to Council questioning, Mr. Phipps advised that an option
on a franchise would be the only method by which they could appropriate the
necessary funds for the feasibility study that would be required.
n
Mr. Cal Queyrel addressed the Council, advising that there.was
quite a difference in the two applications for franchise which had been pre-
sented, and was of the opinion the one presented by Universal Design, Ltd.
would be of greater benefit to the City of Anaheim. He stated the option
for franchise is a necessary protection of funds the company would be com-
mitted to spend for the feasibility report, and if the report proves posi-
tive, they would continue, but if it is negative, they would drop everything,
and certainly this would be in a period of one year.
In answer to Council questioning regarding financing, Mr. Phipps
advised that they were prepared financially to look into and build the sys-
tem, because it would be a complete package. He then explained the proposed
ten-mile route, which would run from Disneyland, up West Street, over to
Manchester, to Lincoln Avenue, to Beach Boulevard, then to Knott's Berry
Farm, and perhaps to the Buena Park Shopping Center and Broadway Shopping
Center. He further noted that the"important factor was that Anaheim would
68-56
City Hall. Anaheim. California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 30. 1968. 1:30 P.M.
be protected by this route. He stated that from this route, it could grow
and be expanded, and in his opinion, this ten-mile system would be feasible.

After recess, Discussion resumed on the proposed rapid transit system for the
City of Anaheim. (See page 68-57)
Mr. Geisler explained the necessary steps to be taken for the re-
quest of Universal Design, Ltd., to be considered by the City Council, and
further noted some of the differences apparent between the two proposals.
Mr. Geisler also reported how specifications could be established
by the City, and the franchise let to the highest bidder.
It was noted that the Transportation Committee of the Capital
Improvement Program would be taking this matter under consideration, and
it was the consensus of the Council that the committee continue an analysis
of the situation.
After further discussion, recogn~z~ng the need for transportation
withi~the City of Anaheim, Councilman Dutton stated, that in his opinion,
the question should be kept open to explore future possibilities.
Councilman Chandler felt that in keeping the possibility of rapid
transit open, those interested should contact the committee, and be heard,
so that the committee would be in a position to make a future recommenda-
tion to the City Council.
RESOLQfION NO. 68R-68: At the conclusion of discussion, Councilman Krein
offered Resolution No. 68R-68, rescinding Resolution No. 68R-67.

ORANGE COUNTY CONDITIONAL PERMIT NO. 1294: Proposed amendment to permit re-

Road, northerly of the Southern Pacific Railroad and Cerritos Avenue, in
the southeast industrial area.
Councilman Schutte withdrew from the Council table for the purpose
of speaking on this issue.
n
Excerpts from the minutes of the City Planning Commission meet-
ing held January 29, 1968, recommending that the Orange County Planning
Commission be urged to approve the reorientation of the proposed horse
stables and setting forth their reasons therefor, were submitted.
Mr. A.J. Schutte, 420 North Loara Street, owner of property in
the immediate area, addressed the Council in opposition, being of the opin-
ion that the stable would be detrimental to the neighborhood. He called
attention to the approximately 500-foot unimproved roadway on the property,
to be used as vehicular access, being of the opinion that the dust which
