that it was his opinion all property on the no-th side of the street would eventually be

' Commissione* Gauer stated that quite a few problems were being compounded on subject street;

denied alto9ether; further, that some consideration should be given to subject request
since Standard Oil Company did maintain a clean~ nice appearing station throughout the
United States and because of the fact that the type of signs requested had been established
as their motif~ Furthery that he thought one big sign would be less appealin9 than the two
which were proposed~
Commissioner Perry9 noting from previous actions, stated the City Council required that

PRFCISE ALIGNMEiJ'I' PUBLIC HEARING INITIATED BY THE CITY PLANNING CO'MMISSIO~, 204 E3st
LA PALMA AVENUE_~ 1_incoln Avenue, Anaheim, Caiifornia, proposing the estabiishment of
the precise aiignment of La Palma Avenue from Jef:erson Street on the
west to Fee Ana Street (Anaheim City limits) on the east.
Planning Supervisor Ronaid Grudzinski reviewed a report to the Commission on tE~e Precise
Alignment of La Palma Avenue for the Commission and interested persons, briefLy sta*_ing
the previous actions at public hearings of the Commission and the City Cou~ci? in Ge^e:s2
Plan Amendment Ab, 38~ It was further noted that because of the potentiai deue•lopm~nt i~
~ the Northeast Industrial Area, a p:ecise alignment was necessary for La Palma Ave~uz; that
~ after severai meetings between the Orange County Road Department and the City of Anaheim
~ Public Works and Development Services Departments, it was recommended that a public hear-
- ing be set fo; the Commission"s consideration of evidence on the proposed Precise ~+lignment;
that the Engineering Department had prepared the Precise Alignment of La Palma Avenue
(extended) from Jefferson Street on the west to Fee Ana Stieet (Anaheim City limits) on
the east as depicted on Exhibit "A"; and that the Orange County Road Department would
proceed with measures for the estabiishment of the Precise Alignment of La Palma from
Fee Ana Street easterly to the Imperiai Highway which presently is under the jurisdiction
of the County of Orange~
1 Mr. Howard Crcoke, secretary of the Orange County Water District, appeared before the
' Commission and stated he had been foliowing the procedures of the proposed extension of
4 La Palma Avenue for some time and noticed that the City of Anaheim had ao~Nted the gener~l
I alignment similar to that established by the County Road Department; that in his depart•-
~ ment"s consideration of water spreading facilities adjacent to the Santa Ana River,
condemnation proceedings had been filed incorporating property southerly and easterly
of the proposed a;ignment; that a buffer strip was being established easterly of Jefferson
Street so that an overlap or a"no man`s land" wou?d isolate the water spreading facilities
from the general pubiic; and that he was urging the Commission to adopt the proposed Precise
~ Alignment in order that accurate iegal descriptions of the proposed water spreading faci.i••
ties, together with their proposed acquisition of the land, could be final:~ed.
I
j In response to Commission questioning as to the boundaries of the water spreading faciiities,
~ Mr~ Crooke stated that all water spreading would be ~onfined to the south of the ~+
j alignment. proposP.
• Mr~ Craig Granger, 125 South Claudina, appeared before the Commission and stated he
represented a number of property owners of p;operty through tvhich the proposed Precise
Alignment wou:d cross, who were opposed to dedication of their properties for the ultimate
right-of-way of La Palma Avenue extended, and were desirous of going on record that any
, acquisition for right-of-way for the street would have to be made through condemnation
proceedings rather than through any dedication.
, 1 Discussion was then held by the Commission to determine the effects of the alignment if the
Precise Alignmert were relocated; Mr~ Mickelson stated that if the alignment were relocated,
~~ a considerable portion of the settling basin would be taken, and any further lowering of
~ ~ the proposed curb would reduce the area, since Mr, Crooke stated the settling basin was
too small already~

~~ granting in part Variance Noo 1701.
-• Zoning Supervisor Robert Mickelson advised the Commission that the petit?oner ha~ requested
a waiver of number of free-standing signs permitted and that the Commission, in their
discussion, did determine the total square foot area in the computation of free-standing
signs should include the freeway frontage, but that Resolution Noo 1631, Series 1964-65,
dated May 10y 1965, did not indicate the aforementioned; whereas it was determined that
an amendment to the resolution would be necessary~
Commissioner Rowland offered Resolution Noo 1662, Series 1964-65, to amend Resolution
Noo 1631~ Series 1964-65, seconded by Commissioner Camp, by an additional finding, as
follows:
"That in the computation of the total square foot area and sign location
for free-standing sigr.s permitted that the freeway frontage shall be
considered as frontage, thereby eliminating the necessity of a waiver
from Section 18062o090(b-1) Number of Free-Standing Signs Permitted"o
