The Mayor declared the purpose of the session is to conduct a joint public hearing to consider the
proposed amended Redevelopment Plan for the West Anaheim Commercial Corridors Redevelopment
Project and the Final Environmental Impact Report.
The City Clerk swore in all those who wished to speak at the joint hearing.
Mayor Daly opened the joint public hearing on the proposed West Anaheim Commercial Corridors
Redevelopment Plan and asked for the Executive Director’s staff report.
Lisa Stipkovich, Executive Director, Community Development, indicated that the rules for the hearing
and establishment of the Plan are in the Health and Safety Code of the State of California. Notices of
this hearing have been published and mailed as required. The affidavits and proof of mailing have been
submitted to the City Clerk and are part of the record of the proceedings.
Mrs. Stipkovich noted that in response to concerns of residents and businesses located in the western
portion of the city, the Community Development Department took the existing Brookhurst Commercial
2
ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES, JUNE 16, 1998
Corridor Redevelopment Project and amended it to add over 700 acres of property in the western portion
of Anaheim and renamed it the West Anaheim Commercial Corridors Redevelopment Project. The
project will be in place for 30 years and will make additional tools available in Redevelopment Law to be
used in this area. The area was selected based on input from area residents and businesses, City
departments such as Police, Planning and research and field work by Agency staff and consultants.
The statistics and prominent features of blight in this area are as follows: this area is only 2.6 percent of
the City land area and accounts for 30% of all code violations; 14% of Fire Department calls; 15% of
serious crimes; property values are 59% lower than elsewhere in Anaheim. Ms. Stipkovich related some
of the kinds of improvements which redevelopment funding could provide such as a police station, fire
station, community meeting center, improvements to street scape, school facilities and other
infrastructure improvements.
Ms. Stipkovich explained that the Project Area Committee, a volunteer group of area citizens and
businesses, elected by their peers, voted unanimously in favor of adoption of the Redevelopment Plan.
To date, there are no objections and strong community support for the plan.
The Mayor asked the Clerk to read into the record the names of those persons submitting written
comments, and it was reported that none were received.
It was clarified that the one letter given to Council from Mr. Dave Hunter had been withdrawn in writing
by Mr. Hunter, that he did not wish to file a written objection.
The Mayor invited members of the PAC to speak.
Joan Oakley, Business Representative, West Anaheim PAC. She works for the largest
employer in the area, West Anaheim Medical Center, 3033 West Orange Avenue and serves as a
Business Representative on the PAC. She voiced the opinion that the area needs business that supports
the residents, such as an anchor bank, coffee shops, more senior housing. She suggested that large
parcels be packaged together for business, that blighted motels be purchased and combined into larger
parcels.
Esther Wallace, 604 Scott Lane, representing community organizations on the PAC, stated she is
interested in retrofitting this community and making it a better place to live. She feels they need a
community center, combined with a police and fire station. There are many seniors in need of senior
living facilities. She also wants to focus on young people and young families to move into West
Anaheim. Because of high density apartments and families living in motels there is a need to improve
parks and provide after school activities.
Mike Reetz, 2776 West Yale Avenue, is a member of WAND and is the elected representative of
residents on the PAC. He is concerned that values of resale homes in the 92801 zip code are lower in
comparison to other areas. He feels both upscale and entry homes are needed. He would also like to
see bike trails and bike lanes, and more code enforcement activity in the motels along Beach Boulevard.
The PAC is committed to monitoring the execution of the plan over the next three decades, and
recommends approval of the West Anaheim Commercial Corridors Redevelopment Plan.
The Mayor opened the hearing to comments from the public at large and asked that prior to speaking, in
addition to name and address would they please advise whether they are representing any organization,
or whether they own or rent or operate a business in the Project Area.
There were five members of the Public to speak as follows:
Jeff Kirsch, 2661 West Palais Road, Anaheim. He indicated he had neither a business nor did he reside
within the Project Area. He does however live within the sphere of influence of this project and will be
affected by its success or failure. He is concerned because of the funding mechanism to be used.
Historically, he is not convinced that redevelopment incremental financing is successful since it takes
3
ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES, JUNE 16, 1998
away correspondingly from other public needs which have to be made up by the taxpayer. Further it is
his opinion that the build up of incremental funds puts pressure on the public agency to spend them,
sometimes on projects which do not accomplish results.
Lysa M. Saltzman, Attorney, Best, Best & Krieger, 402 West Broadway, San Diego CA 92101-3542. Ms.
Saltzman read into the record a prepared statement on behalf of the Anaheim Union High School
District, the Anaheim City School District, the Centralia School District, the Magnolia School District, the
Savanna School District and the Orange County Department of Education. She indicated that she
wished her written statement to be incorporated into the record, but it does not serve as an objection.
The statement submitted (on file in the office of the City Clerk) highlights certain other exchanges of
correspondence during this process which Ms. Saltzman also wishes to appear in this record. The
Anaheim Union High School District looks forward to the benefits of the Corridor Project, however the
District continues to encourage the City Council and Redevelopment Agency to incorporate into the
mitigation measures language to the effect that all subsequent land use decisions concerning
developments to be built within the Project Area will be evaluated on an individual basis to determine
specific impact on the high school district facilities so that appropriate mitigation measures can be
implemented at the time these projects are approved.
Sam Powers, 938 North Gilbert, stated his concern that the Redevelopment Project will generate low
cost housing and create a slum.
Katherine Ticker, tenant at 3427 W. Canoga, Anaheim, has lived in west Anaheim since 1948 and
watched it grow into a deteriorating urban environment, mainly because of a lack of decent affordable
housing stock in Orange County, and therefore the working poor are using motels as homes. She urged
approval of this plan to progressively plan for urban renewal and urban growth.
Leonard Lahtinen, 2731 West Savoy Place, Anaheim, indicated he has lived in west Anaheim for over 30
years. He is present to encourage the City Council’s support of this program. He has worked with the
BBC for improvements in their area.
There were no additional members of the public to speak.
Staff and Consultant Comments:
The Mayor asked that staff respond to the comment concerning the development of low cost housing.
Lisa Stipkovich advised that there is no proposal included in the West Anaheim Commercial Corridors
Redevelopment Plan for low cost housing. The only reference in the plan to affordable or low-cost
housing is with regard to the 20% set-aside to provide assistance to low and moderate income for
adequate housing, but this is not restricted to this area, it may occur anywhere in the City.
There were no further staff or consultant comments.
Mayor Daly called for questions from the Council/Agency Members. There were no questions.
Mayor Daly declared the joint public hearing before the Anaheim Redevelopment Agency, and City
Council closed.
Council Members Lopez and Zemel and Mayor Daly thanked the staff members of Community
Development and the citizens who participated, for their diligence and hard work in coming forward with
the plan.
Chairman Karczynski called the Anaheim Redevelopment and Housing Commission public hearing
closed.

Public hearing continued from the meetings of May 12, 1998, Item D2, June 2, 1998, Item D1,
and June 9, 1998, Item D1.
Mr. Kerry Choppin representing The Olson Company reported that his firm has met with the WAND
group twice since the continuance, and they do believe they have come to a consensus on an acceptable
design for the project. This is shown on the exhibit posted today in the Council Chamber. Three of the
units were removed, and a swimming pool, spa and expanded recreation area included, as well as an
increase in parking spaces. Mr. Chopin thanked the WAND group for their interest and participation in
the redesign of the project, particularly Esther Wallace and Judith Gollette, as well as Greg Hastings and
the City Planning staff.
Mayor Daly noted that the City Council had received a revised Planning Staff Report dated June 16,
1998 relating to the revised plans and setting forth two new conditions.
Mr. Choppin indicated he was in agreement with the requirements as set forth in the June 16, 1998 staff
report.
Mayor Daly opened the public hearing for comments.
Esther Wallace, 604 Scott Lane, first asked to be informed as to the new stipulations.
These were read by Mayor Daly.
Joel Fick, Planning Director explained that they relate to (1) limiting the hardscape area so as to
preserve the landscaped buffer on the south property line; and (2) landscaping in the common area, this
to be installed by the developer and maintained by the homeowner’s association.
Mrs. Wallace indicated she was in agreement with the new conditions. She reported that WAND had
accepted the alternate design proposed by The Olson Company wherein there will be 57 homes
constructed and a swimming pool, spa and playground. She explained this brings the density to 9.1 units
per acre, and the WAND organization will strive for lower densities on future west Anaheim proposals.
8
ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES, JUNE 16, 1998
Judith Gollette 649 S.Roanne Street, stated she is in agreement that this is a good plan at this point.
She urged the City to talk to the residents regarding rezoning and lot sizes for future projects.
Concerning future designs for homes in west Anaheim, Mr. Choppin volunteered to work with WAND and
the Planning Department to put together a design ordinance covering this type of development. At the
SCAG meeting keynote address last week on Livable Communities, it was noted that a number of cities
do not have development standards for this style of development.
In response to Mayor Daly’s request for the Redevelopment perspective on this project, Lisa Stipkovich
advised that they had reviewed this proposal; the Commission had approved it in its original design,
which did not have as much open space or the swimming pool amenities. They would continue to
recommend approval of this project as redesigned. It is consistent with the landscape plan for the overall
area, and this is a big plus for the area as far as her Department is concerned.
There being no further persons who wished to speak, Mayor Daly closed the public hearing.

ADDITIONS TO THE AGENDA:
There were no additions to agenda items.
ITEMS OF PUBLIC INTEREST:
Norma Leichtweis, 2122 West Harle. Her street is located between
Katella and Cerritos Avenues. She is curious because in all of the Planning efforts for West Anaheim
she cannot determine whether her particular area is represented. She related that she has lived in this
area for 40 years and 35 years ago, as PTA President she requested that sidewalks be installed.
Because of the impending widening of Brookhurst there was an asphalt strip installed instead. Now that
asphalt is breaking away, grass is growing through and generally does not look good at all, especially
compared to the opposite side of Brookhurst which is in the City of Garden Grove and has been
improved considerably. She asked where does this particular area fit into the redevelopment plans.
Mayor Daly asked the City Manager to respond in detail to Ms. Leichtweis on the plans for the area she
has questioned.

The Mayor declared Resolution Nos. 98R-
114
through 98R-
126
, both inclusive, duly passed and
adopted.
Council Member Bob Zemel remarked concerning the budget package that last year he had asked for
police officers, but did not get them, and he did not vote in favor of the budget. This year, the police
officers were added, and he will be supporting the budget. He commented however, that it is difficult for
him to support the budget for another reason, the public benefit fee. This fee which collects 7 million
dollars was placed in existence by a 3-2 vote. The budget calls for three new positions to manage and
monitor the use of these funds. He would like confirmation from the City Manager that he will still talk
about other ways of cost cutting to reduce the public benefit fee; and to determine what are the
ramifications if the City did not adopt it. He would like a commitment to work on that issue.
Mr. Ruth explained that the Utility has already undergone cost cutting measures to place itself in
competitive position, but he is willing to explore further cost reductions.
Council Member McCracken noted that the restructuring and the public benefit fee is not something the
City of Anaheim created on its own, but rather it has been imposed on every utility in the State of
California, by the State Legislature and the process was agreed upon, so she fails to understand how
Anaheim could ignore it or act in some opposite fashion. She stressed it is important for Anaheim to pay
off their debt so as to remain competitive.
Council Member Zemel disagreed with Council Member McCracken’s comment, and stated he is anxious
for the City Council to show more leadership on this issue.
Mayor Daly stated that stranded debt and efforts by the staff to position the publicly owned utility to
compete beyond the year 2000 are important issues. One of the essential means of remaining
competitive is to reduce the amount of debt. He noted that Wall Street gives the Anaheim Utility higher
marks than other municipals and even Edison.
Motion was made by Mayor Daly, seconded by Council Member McCracken to adopt the 1998/1999
budget as proposed. Motion Carried (all ayes)
Mayor Daly noted that this proposed budget reflects the strongest financial condition for the City in quite
some time, bond ratings are higher and reserves are deeper than they have been.
A23.
153: Approving the following classification and compensation changes to implement the fiscal
year 1998/99 budget (creating 3
6 new classifications, deleting 36 obsolete classifications, and
changing the salary range for five classifications) effective June 26, 1998: (Continued from the
June 9, 1998, meeting, Item A22.)

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA - CITY COUNCIL MINUTES, JUNE 16, 1998
Phil Knypstra, 2520 Gelid Avenue, advised he was speaking as an individual, but once again wished to
speak against item A23 as he did last week. (See minutes of Council meeting June 9, 1998.) Mr.
Knypstra stated that he has done research which tells him that the after the meter market will have all of
the major competitors seeking this trade. He voiced the opinion that the Council should first see a
marketing plan prior to hiring these individuals as proposed by the Public Utility in item A23.
Mayor Daly offered Resolution Nos. 98R-127 through 98R-131 for adoption. Refer to Resolution Book.
