Anaheim, CA 92802
Re: ~ecial Circumstances Waiver No. 2001-00014 -Approved
On June 14, 2001, Annika M. Santalahti, Zoning Administrator, considered and approved your request for
Special Circumstances Waiver No. 2001-00014 to permit 20 Special Event Permits in addition to the four
permitted by Code (for a total of 24 Special Event Permits during calendar year 2001) on property located on
the north side of Katella Avenue between Disneyland Drive and Harbor Boulevard (Disney's California
Adventure Theme Park back-of-house area). She made the following findings:
1. That approval of special circumstances waivers (allowing modification and/or waiver of
regulations pertaining to special events) is authorized by Subsection 18.02.055.080 "Zoning Administrator
Review (of Special Events Permits)" and Section 18.12.085 "Special Event Permit -Review" of the Anaheim
Municipal Code.
2. That a letter requesting this special circumstances waiver and describing the proposal was
submitted by John T. Graves, A.I.A., Senior Development Manager; and, that photographs attached to the ,
Staff Report to the Zoning Administrator dated June 14, 2001, illustrate the screening of the tents.
3. That approval of the request allows the continued use of three temporary tents for the
storage of parade floats associated with Disney's Electrical Parade from July 13, 2001 through December
31, 2001.
4. That the property is located in the 292-acre Theme Park District of The Disneyland Resort
Specific Plan No. 92-1, where theme park facilities including parade floats and associated permanent
storage facilities are permitted in back-of-house areas.
5. That extraordinary circumstances are present because permanent facilities do not currently
exist to store the parade floats and the three temporary tents will protect the floats from direct sunlight and
prevent damage to the color-coated bulbs and black fabric material; and, that approval of the request
facilitates operation of the parade through the end of the year while the petitioner designs and constructs
permanent facilities to house the parade floats if it is decided to continue the parade.
6. That two of the proposed tents (Tents "A" and "B") are fully screened from public view by a
combination of landscaping, perimeter fencing and back-of-house buildings; and, that Tent "C" is screened
from view along. Katella Avenue by a combination of landscaping, perimeter fencing, and a wooden facade
which has been designed to look like a building and is painted to match and blend in with the adjacent roller
coaster.
7. That the City Traffic and Transportation Manager has reviewed the tent locations and the
displacement of 30 parking spaces, and has determined that the tents do not impact on-site vehicle
circulation because adequate parking remains to serve The Disneyland Resort, including the California
Adventure Theme Park; and, that the remaining Resort parking spaces exceed Code requirements and
employees who typically park in the 30 spaces will be shuttled from other employee parking lots to the area.

8. That approval of this request serves the public interest, safety and general welfare.

the staff report, the Zoning Administrator approved Special Circumstances Waiver No. 2001-00014 for the
herein described special events, subject to compliance with the following conditions:
1. That a total of twenty four (24) Special Event Permits shall be permitted for this property during calendar
year 2001 (i.e., four [4] permitted by the Anaheim Municipal Code and twenty [20] additional permits
pursuant to this Special Circumstances Waiver).
2. That not less than five (5) days prior to commencement of the activity authorized by Special
Circumstances Waiver No. 2001-00014, the applicant shall obtain a Special Event Permit from the
Planning Department for each of the twenty (20) additional special events.
3. That prior to issuance of a tent permit by the Fire Department for the time period allowed by this Special
Circumstances Waiver, plans showing compliance with Uniform Fire Code Article 32 shall be submitted
to the Fire Department for review and approval.
4. That the tents shall be installed and used in accordance with plans and specifications submitted to the
City of Anaheim by the petitioner and which plans are on file with the Planning Department marked
Exhibit Nos. 1 through 10, and as conditioned herein.
5. That the tents, including the wooden facade attached to Tent "C", shall be maintained in a clean
condition and in good repair; and, that the tent material and the wooden facade shall be replaced in a
timely manner in the event of damage.
6. That by January 1, 2002, the tents shall be removed and the thirty (30) parking spaces which were
displaced by said tents shall be returned to, and made available for, parking use.
7. That failure to comply with Condition Nos. 2 through 5, herein, shall subject this Special Circumstances
Waiver to termination or modification pursuant to the provisions of the Anaheim Municipal Code.
8. That approval of this application constitutes approval of the proposed request only to the extent that it
complies with the Anaheim Municipal Zoning Code and any other applicable City, State and Federal
regulations. Approval does not include any action or findings as to compliance or approval of the
request regarding any other applicable ordinance, regulation or requirement.
This decision shall become final unless an appeal to the City Council, in writing, accompanied by an appeal
fee, is filed with the City Clerk within ten (10) days from the date of this letter or unless members of the City
Council request review of this decision within said 10 days.
If you have any questions, please contact Della Herrick, Associate Planner, Advanced Planning Division, at
