4 people were present in opposition of this item
The applicant was not present at this public hearing due to his request for the continuance.
Donna Murphy, 6960 East Avenida De Santiago stated that when they purchased their home 3 years ago,
they bought in an established neighborhood and expected it to stay that way because that is what the
regulations were. So that is why we are opposing it.
Robert Gunther, Sr., 6960 East Avenida De Santiago, we have 2 % acres and I would sure love to divide
mine but I knew I couldn't when I purchased the property.
Robert Zerrenner, 6985 Via EI Estribo, is against the whole subdivision idea and feels that the parcel isn't
really large enough to subdivide. Because of that neighborhood and the caliber of the neighborhood
there are very expensive and large homes up there. Why anybody would want to spend that kind of
money when you have a neighbor crammed in between two houses. You can go to any new
development and get a neighbor that close if that is what you are after. The only thing this subdivision will
do is drive the prices down in the area.
Sonja Grewal, Anaheim Hills Citizen Coalition, P.O. Box 17578, Anaheim, CA 92817. We are incredibly
against this, and it is a terrible precedence to even consider. There was major input from every agency in
the county. Stated that this development does not satisfy the intent of the General Plan but in fact goes
against the General Plan. 1t is totally against the CC&R's that were set to protect these properties. Most
of the lots in the area are over 1 acre but they are not subdivided.
Annika Santalahti, Zoning Administrator directed staff to advise applicant of the very specific issues that
were raised by the opposing neighbors. She granted a continuance to the May 18, 2000 public hearing
meeting.
