Mro Knisely then stated the pictures indicated what was proposed for subject property; that the development in Torrance was completed in March of 1965 and was 100% occupied with a waiting list for membership in the club; that the residents of the small apartments had pride of ownership or residence, because after almost a year of occupancy, the apart- ments were almost spotless, and that the development offered the young, single adults a place to meet and have social times, rather th~,~ a tavern,:or companionship, and a large space was not necessary as long as the furnish~ngs provided a high quality living environment~ Mr., Knisely then stated he had circulated a petition among the various hotel and motel areas around Disneyland who indicated the type and quality of persons who would be resid- ing in the proposed development would be an asset to the community. The brochure presented to the Commission was also reviewed by Mro Knisely which indicated the minimum age of inembership was 21, and the maximum age was 36 years; that the salaries of the people involved were over $675 a month per male occupant and over $450 per female occupant; that those residents in the Torrance development had an average of 303 years of college, with many of them having Masters Degrees and some were working for their poctorate Degreeso Mr, Richard Hogeman, 6718 East Ocean Avenue, Long Beach, appeared before the Commission and stated~the "Never on Friday Club" had a 24,000 membership, the club having been started in Long Beach and had many branches throughout Southern California; that the California theme type of club was proposed to provide good clean fun for single people in an orderly fashion, starting with Friday dances at the better hotels at which suit and tie were required, and various similar types of entertainment throughout Southern California, and this had now been extended into a travel program and recently into the living facilities type of club, since a great demand had been evidenced by requests at the headquarters; that a full•-time soci~l director would be employed; that the club activities would be constantly supervised; that its success had been proven by the amount of publicity and coverage in magazines and tele- vision; that the reason Anaheim had been selected was because Orange County had a member- ship of between 7,000 and 8,000 people and of that membership 3,000 to 4,000 in the general area being considered for the new d2velopment; that the new location was ideal because of other entertainment activities within close proximity; that his connection with the project would be mar~agement, and he had had considerable experience within the last three years supervising the membership oi 24,000 young people; that many of the hotel management people had complimented the membership of the "Never on Friday Club" because of their behavior in group participation of sociai events, and this was due to the fact that the membership was limited to mature adults and was constantly under supervisione Mr. Hogeman, in response to Commission questioninq, stated he had been contracted for the proposed development as manager for a specified time; that after a member hsd reached the maximum age of 36, he was not automatically asked to resign because age, after all, wo~.ld take care of participation in the activities the club provided; that the undesirables were generally v~eeded out; that the club was not concern~d with the "urder 21" group because they were mu~e irresponsible, and at various functions guards were at the entrance to check identification, and anyone under 21 would not be allnwed to participate in these functions; ihst an attempt had been made to establish a standard, and if inembers met this standard, they were permitted to remain regardless of whether or not they were 36; and aithough they had two married couples in the membership, this was rare because marsied couples usually had other interests after marriage; and that he wished, again, to stress the fact that proper management of the proposed development would reassure any qualms the Commission might have about the operation of the proposed development. Mr. Knisely again appeared before the Commission and si;ated that although Mro Hogeman had not mentioned that he had not originally started out to provide living facilities for the "Never on Friday Club", this was an end result o_' demands from the members, and that authori- ties and sociologists concur the type of environment proposed was healthy, and a psychiatrist from the City of Orange had made ti~e trip to Torrance with the ciCy staff to view the project there and had recommended it as a good mental therapy, ~ ~ , M?NUTES, CITY PLANNING CGmMISSION, February 16, 1966 2920 CONDITIONAL USE - Commissioner Rowland exprESSed concern regarding the possibxlity of PERMIT f90~ 802 a change in management which would render the proposed ~eveiopmert somewhat ineffective because the success of the developr,.~nt was based ' VARIANCE NO., 1757 on proper management. (Continued) ~ Nc one appeared in opposition to subject petitionso THE HEARING WAS CIASEDe The Commission noted that the Report to the Commission had indicated a shortage of parking . spaces, and sinc~ young people had cars of their own, this would indicate a shortage of 34 ~:~ units to that permissible under the R-3 Code; that adequate parking should be provided '; because of the number of people who would be using the facilities. I ;-~; Mra Knisely stated that members ~vere permitted to have only one 9uest at a time at the ~' recreational facilities, and that an additional 20 feet had been acqui.red since the peti- tion had heen submitted to the Commission which would provide for additional parkingo It 'i was also noted that in the subterranean parking garages the gzrages did not have pos*,s, ~ so that the 9-foot, 4-inch by 20•-foot parking spaces were readily accessible and easil•;• :,~ maneuveTed; furthermore, some places had tandem parkinge ~~~ , Commissioner Gamp indicated he had had an opportunity to visit the Torrance facility, and he had particularly noticed the parking structure, noting that one :ide of the parking :1 I structure was providing tandem parking, or one car behind the other, and that some spaces had a car and a boat stored there~ A discussion was held by the Commission regarding 1) whether or not the proposed use could be considered an R-3 land use or a hotel operation; 2) adequate parking within Code require- ments if it was determined to be an R-3 land use; 3) the success of the propc;ed operation was dependent upon good management; 4) whether cr not the bachelor~-type apartments, if not successful, would turn into substandard R-3 dwelling units; 5) possibiiity that the proposed use could fill a void for more homogenous residential environment for single people; 6) location of the proposed use within the periphery of the Commercial-Recreation Nrea ba~king onto school grounds and having motels to the north and south of it would not set a precedent for similar requests in the City; 7) basic concern of the Commission as to iand use i,, com- pliance with Code pa*king requirements~ Commissioner Camp stated he had had the same misgivings as some of the other Commissionere; however, after having visited the Torrance project and reviewing its method of ope~ation, he was of the opinion that project was one of the finest types of development and ma~egement he had ever seen; that the land use in the area had been established by ~ previ~» s resolu- tion of intent, and whether it was a hotel or motel operation, it wuuld s,.?11 :it into the Commercial-Recreation Area - however, he also felt more parking should !e provi.ded, and then inquired of the attorney for the petitioners whether or ~ot they could pro~~ide more pa.king. Mro Knisely, after consultation witn his clients, stated that parking in accordance with the R-3 Code requirements could be met for off-street parking, or 310 par':ing spaces for 248 units. Deputy City Attorney Furman Roberts advised the Commission that it was his opinion the conditianal use permit was the appropriate vehicle for the proposed use; however, the variance was necessary for the building site area and commercial uses of two unite sirce these were not permitted by authority of Section 18.64.070, and that the conditi~nal uses permitted boarding houses, fraternities, and sororities which had similar connotations as the proposed use - however, the use could not be considered a motel-hotel use since their definition indicated a transient use of the rooms for short periods of stay. Office Engineer Arthur Daw advised the Commission he wishes to stress the r~quiremen`. of a 60-foot wide dedicated street rather than the 54-foot wide street propose~ in order that parking lanes could be provided along said streeto Commissioner Perry offered Resolution Noa 1933, Series 1965-66, and moved for i,.s passage and adoption, seconded by Commissioner Camp, to grant Petition for Conditional Use Permit Noa 802, sub;;ect to conditions and the requirement that parking be in accordance with t.i,~~ R-3 Code as stipulated by the petitioner, namely 14 parking spaces per dweiling unit, ±,~: deveiopment to be in accordance with Plot 1 of the plans~ (See Resolution Book.) ~:j` On roll call the fore oin resolution was ~ g g passed by the following vote: ~, AYES: COMMISSIONERS: Camp, Gauer, Herbst, Perry, Rowland, Mungalle * NOES: COMMISSIONERS: None. ;-j _ ABSEi1T: COMMISSIUNERS: Allredo ~ .. ) MINUTES, CITY RLANNING C~.~.~vIISSION, February 16, 1966 2cy21 CONDITIONAL USE - Commi~sioner Perry offered Resolution No. 1934, Series 1965-66, and PERMIT NOa 802 moved for its passage and adoption, seconded by Commissioner Herbst, to grant Petition fo~ Variance No. 1757, subject to conditions.

Mr. Gary McConnell, the petitioner, appeared befcre the Commission and ieviewed the proposed development, noting that Winchell's Donut House h.~d leased the proposed structures and would operate a donut shop in one structure and would sublease the other structure for a taco r.estaurant; that the food served by the taco restaurant was not prepared on the premises and only had to be heai:ed on steam tables - therefore there was no necessity for large kitchen facilities; and that tF,e property now had excess fill from the service station at the southeast corner of Dale Av~nue and Ball Road which wouid have to be removed when con- struction began. The Commission noted t.hat the proposed elevations of the two restaurants were very dissimilar and ,.ould not be an asset to the new ft-3 development to the east because of the architecture and color proposed; that the uses proposed wouid add traffic to the residential cevelopment to the east; furthermore, the hours of operation mia~t be detrimental to the peace and health of the residents of the area. The petitioner noted that the caco restaurant would have hours of operation from 11:00 A.M. to 11:00 PoM~ and the donut shop would open earli?r, and that the R-3 development was oriented to the street to the east and backed up to subj ~ property.

No one appeared in opposition to subject petitione THE HEARING WAS CIASED. ~ . Commissioner Herbst offered a motio~ to deny Petition for Conditional Use Permit No, 807, based on the fact that the location of the structures was not the best design and might be detrimental to the area; that the location of the buildings would landlock the rear portion of the property, making it difficult for any future development of the area; and that the proposed development would create a problem for the health and welfare of the residential development to the easte Commissionex Perry seconded the motion. After a considerable discussion by the Commission a vote was taken by all Commissioners present to deny subject petitiono -.~ Discussion was then again held, and after w~ighing all the factors involved, all Commissioners H~ithdrew their votes of denial and directed that the petitioner consult with the Plannin9 Staff and have his designer submit revised plans which would be more compatible to the area; furthermore, development should consist of proposed structures for the rear portion so that a landlocked parcel did not exist.

Mr, Gary McConnell, the owner, appeared before the Commission and stated that subject petition was a third restaurant proposed for subject property; that he would attempt to ~ reach a cooperative agreement with the service station to the west in order to provide ~ for circulation to Dale Avenue for the southerly portion of subject property, and inquired y of the Comrission what their recommendations were regarding the proposed development.. t i The Commission advised the petitioner to revise plans that would incorporate a 21-foot center drive, indicate screen planting ~djacent to the R-3 development to the east, provide for the minimum required landscaping along the dall Road frontage, submission of revised plans which indicated the floor plan which the Commission was unable to note in the plans presented to the Commission, and further consideration of the parcel to the rear of the three restaurants so that the property southerly would not be considered landlock 9, there- by being detrimental to the balance of the area, Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson advised the Commission that a six-foot masonry wall already existed on the R-3 property; therefore there was no need for an additional wall - however, the screen landscaping would be necessary.

Two letters of opposition were read to the Commission. Mra Don Hohenhaus, cwner of property at 129-B Winston Road, appeared before the Commission and stated that one of the letters of opposition was from him, which stated the intended use of the building at the time it was erected was for commercial uses, and the proposed use would not be compatible with the area in which it was proposed to be located since there was no chanye in the land use in the area to justify the proposed use; that the proposed hofbrau or similarly licensed premises would adversely affect the adjoining land use and would be detrimental to the peace, safety, and genera? welfare of the adjoining residents, and that he was sure the Commission's decision would reflect the best judgment for use of subject property. "A*s~ Margaret E, Lenney, 139 Winston Road, appeared before the Commission in opposition to the proposed hofbrau, stating that although all of the property east of Iris Street was zoned for commercial uses, it was developed for apartments which were rented by elderly people; that the proposed hofbrau was located in a residential area, and the normal opera- tion of the premises would interfere with the residential integrity of the area; that the ~~, proposed use would increase traffic on the street and would be dan3erous to the children, _ ranging in age from kindergarten to high school who used the crosswalk at Winston Road and _ Iris Street, as well as waiting at that corner for their school bus; that many elderly people also utilized this crosswalk going to the market; that the petitioner was proposing a waiver of the number of parking spaces, and since this area was already overburdened with a shortage of parking spaces, this would mean customers of the tavern would park in front of the apartments which would g:eatiy inconvenience their tenants; that the apartments on Winston Road were one story, low-density, beautifully landscaped, garden-type apartments; that a more logical location for the proposed use would be approximately two blocks south of Winston Road on Anaheim Boulevard and not located in a residential area; that the apart- ments on Guinida Lane had so~ne of their bedrooms within 20 feet of the proposed use which would be detrimental to the health of the residents because of the hours of operation of i the proposed use; and that although she agreed that a petitioner had to have some rights, I the proposed use would be detrimental to the other residents and property owners in the areao Copies of the petitions of the various property owners along Iris Street and Winston Road were submitted for the petition file, said petitions having been addressed to the Dep~rt- ment of Alc~:holic Beverage Control opposing the proposed hofbrau within 350 feet of Paul Revere School~ Commissioner Camp cffered a motion to continue the t;~aring of Petition for Conditional Use Permit No. 809 to the meeting of March 14, 1966, in order to ailow the petitioner time to submit revised plans.

Mr., Lawrence Muckenthaler, the petitioner, appeared before the Commission and stated he had sold a portion of his property for the postoffice to the north; that he had set his sights high to establish a commercial development which would be complimentary to the area; that the service station would not genprate any more traffic than was already evidenced by the shopping center on the opposite side of the street; that service stations were now being built everywhere,and the architecture would be compatible and acceptable to the area in which it was proposed to be located; that he plannec~ for additional development for the vacant parcels to the north and west of subject property - however, it was felt a service station was a good investment for the northwest corner of Crescent and Loara., A letter of opposition was read to the Commission opposing the proposed service station site adjacent to developed properties, with the feeling that the service station would be a detrimental use for the area and was not the highest and best use for the property. Mr. Muckenthaler, in rebuttal, stated he had sold the property to the man opposing the service statior, site, and that his property was located approximately 300 feet from the proposed site. Commissioner Rowland was of the opinion there was no demonstrated need for service stations on a residential street; that the street known as Loara Street was primarily residential northerly of Crescent Avenue, as well as on the easterly side, southerly of Crescent; that streets which were not designed for commercial arer~s were not construct~d to provide for commercial traffic, and in keeping with the Commission's policy which was stated in the service station st~ndard requiremen~s, service stations should be loca+ed at the intersec- tion of two arterials, whereas Loaia Street was considered a collector street~ Commissioner Rowland offered Resolution Noe 1937, Series 1965-66, and moved for its passage and adoption, seconded by Commissioner Herbst, to deny Petition for Conditional Use Permit No~ 811, based on the fact that the Code raquires service stations be located at the inter- section of two arterials, whereas Loara Street north of Crescent Avenue was a collector street; that the use would be established in close proximity t.o numerous residential uses and would be detrimental to the development of adjacent properties for commercial purposes such as had been estabiished in the area since the proposed service station would establish an undesirable traffic hazard because of its close proximity to the residential uses and the school~ (See Resolution Buoko) On roll call the foregoing resolution was passed by the following vote: AYES: COMMISSIONERS: Camp, Gauer, Herbst, Perry, Rowland, Mungall~ NOES: COMMISSIONERS: None.

Property presently classified C-1, GENERAL CAMMERCIAL, ZONE~ Mr, VJilliam Findley, agent for the petitioner, appeared before the Commission and stated he was available to answer questions. The Commission reviewed the plans and noted the petitioner would have to dedicate ~:dditional footage in order to comply with the recent amendment to the Circulation Element of the General Plan, and inquired of Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson whether or not there would be adequate building setback. Mra Thompson stated that because of the request for additional dedication, and the fact that subject property was already being developed for the reclassification it was approved for, an 8-foot building setback from East Street was ail that was now being proposed, whereas it was originally 20 feet. Comm°_ssioner Camp stated that because of the change in City policy relative to street widen- ing, waiver of the parking spaces in subject petition was necessary because the street widen- ing reduced the number of parking spaces originally proposed~ Mrs, Randy Smith, 618 Elmwood Street, appeared before the Commission in opposition to subject petition, stating that any restaurant serving beer could turn into a"beer bar"; that subject property was located in the center of a residential area; that with the elimination of parking on East Street, cars from the commercial development would be parking on the residential str~et; that they were having a difficult time trying to provide adequate exit for the cars in tt~e tract because of the circulation; that she was sure the petitioner was sincere in his inten- tions to establish the proposed Mexican restaurant with on-sale beer - however, if economics were in such a state, the petitioner could revise his plans and construct a bar rather than a restaurant; that the corner on which the proposed restau:ant and sale of beer was to be located was also the corner where children waited for and got off of buses to and from school; that East Street would be used to handle the traffic for the new stadium and the oropcsed use would add more traffic to the area; that the circulation of the tract in which she was living was such that a circular route had to be taken in order to gain exit from the tract; ~nd further, in response to Commission questioning, stated she opposed the sale of beer ir~ con- junction with the restaurant since it was proposed to be located in the center of a residential area. The Commission r,oted the petitioner was proposing to develop with considerable area for kitchen requirements; that the conditional u~e permit was necessary in order to operate the proposed use; and that the parking shortage occurred because of the requirement for additional street dedication~ Mr, i•o B. Morley, 515 North East Street, appeared before the Commission and stated that although the proposed restaurant woUld be an asset to the area, the request for serving of beer might have a detrimental effect on the area because of the possibility of it being diverted into a bar; that with other commercial stores proposed for subject property, the use might be detrimental to the small commercial area; and that in his opinion, the proposed on-sale beer was what he was objecting to primarily. Office Engineer Arthur Daw advised the Commission that at ~uch time as the project for street widening purposes on ~ast Street takes place, the existing curbs and gutters would be reloca±ed to pe;rnit full dedication of the street, thereby providing for on-street parking on the east side of East Street, with th? possibiliiy of providir.g six or seven additional parking spaces. Mro Findley, in rebuttai, stated the pians did not indicate any counter space or bar or stools; that the operator of the restaurant catered to a family-type business, and the sale of beer was only incidental to the serving of food; that the hours of operation would be from 11:00 A.M. to 11:00 P.M.; and that he could not see where the proposed structure would be used as a tavern.

Jahnke, 2579 West Rome Avenue, appeared before the Commission in opposition and stated the reclassification of subject praperty would have a detrimental effect on the neighborhood and would permit existing homes to be used for offices, and a situation similar to that on North Brookhurst Street would result which would be detrimental to the entire area. Mr~ Cornelius Madigan, 813 South Magnolia Avenue, appeared before the Commission in favor of subject petition, stating he was using his home as an office and parking was not permitted along Magnolia Aver~~:e in front of their homes, and it was difficult te sell a home because of its undesirability for residential purposes, and all property owners along Magnolia Avenue had the same problem. Mr~ Kair, in rebut~al, stated th~t in his opinion, subject and abutting properties would eventually be reciassified to C~-1, and if subject petition was a~proved, this might set a pattern of development for the remaining parcels a?ong Magnolia Avenu?, Two letters of opposition were read to tne Commission.

Mr, Stout then stated that the p.-titioner had canvassed the area to determine whether the proposed 3evelopment would be acceptable to the iesidents of the area and had received favczaui2 comments. Krso Mary Smedley, 2109 East South Street, appeared before the Commission in opposition and stated that although she realized the intersection of South Street and 5tate College Boule- v:rd was a dangerous corner, to grant the proposed commercial use on subject property would set a precedant for the v3cant parcels to the south and east of subject property; that the area was ba<ically residential in character; that all the property owners had purchased their homes on the assumption the area would remain residential; that many children crossed the area to go to school, and this would add more traffic hazards to the chiidren with the service station and commercial uses on the balance of the prop?rty; and that the property values of their homes would be greatly reduced if commercial uses were estab~ished on subject property. The Cort~nission advised the opposition the vacant parcel to the east was owned by the Mormon Church, and it was anticipated this would be developed for church purposes in the future. Mr. R.

In talking with people in the industry, it seems that one of the primary considerations given to selecting a batch plant sit.e is to find a location that is within reasonable distance of, or centrally located between both the material source and the actual construction site, Site area needs for individuai batch plants range from approximately 2 to 2~S acres for a i portable type operation with a sinqle loading, si.ngle silo/hopper set-up, to app~~ximately ; 5 acres or more for the more permanent double loading, quadruple silo-hopper set-up, :~ (The phraseology used to describe the different set-ups is that of tha author and not necessarily used within the industry,) A conservative estimate at the length of time a •-~ batching operation may be in one location would be a minimum of one year for a portable ' operation, to a minimum of three to five years for the more permanent faciiityo However, _ in speaking with the people at Consolidated Rock, it seems that the majority of their _ operations have been in existence for 15 years or soe I While rail transportation was once used to a fair extent, the industry seems t~ rely primarily upon trucking transportation now~ Therefore, another prime consideration for a location is a site's proximity to adequate road facilities. The use of conveyor belts and closed hoppers has been a considerable aid in reducing the amount of dust. created by this type of operation~ Although the Air Pollution Control District h.:s been very active in keepinq tabs on the dust situation, the fact still remains that ba~.ch plants are a dusty business., The yard and roadways within the site are usually not pave~ and with heavy truck traffic constantly movinc in and out of tY~e site, dust is naturally being created.. In addition to the dust facto:-, the noise created by the trucks and other equipment would seem to make the use incompat.:ble with a residential area especially. Dick Turner, County Coordinator with the Orange County Planning Uepartment, stated that approval of a use variance is necessary to establish a batch plant within the County's jurisdiction. He also stated that the number of requests for this type of business has decreased considerably in recent years. It seems t,~,t batch plants are a very competitive type business and most of the larger sand and grave~ operators have the industry pretty well tied up, Of particular concern to the City when considering a request for a batch plant in a parti- cular location is, how will the use affect adjacent land uses? The amounts of noise, dust, odor and vibrations would probably be the determining factors. Truck traffic and operating machinery will naturally create considerable noise. Dust conditions as mentioned above could certainly create discord and discontent if the site is very close to a residential or commercial area and also some industrial uses„ Since the prevailing winds in the Anaheim area are 9enerally westerly an~ sou;.hwesterly, except when we have a 5anta Ana wind condition, it would be best not to permit such a plant immediately west of a residen- tial or commercial areao ~ MINUTES, CITY PLANNING COMMISSION~ February 16, 1966 2935 REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS - lTEM NO> 5(Continued Since the majority of the central and western parts of the City are already developed pri~arily with residential and commercial uses, it seems that the most logicai locations for batch plants would be in the eastern and northeastern areas of the City, more speci- fically in the Southeast and Northeast Industrial Areas. Both of these geographical areas border upon the Santa Ana River which should provide an adequate buffer between any in- compatible useso In the Southeast Industrial Area there are two basic areas which could possibly serve as satisfactory locationso One area lies between Katella Avenue and the A.T. 8 S.F.R.R., and the other is between Katella Avenue and Ball Road, Both locations are immediately adjacent to the Santa Ana River and at the present time are still under County jurisdiction. When the Orange Freeway is completed, these pote~itial locations will be bordered on the east by a natural 5uffe: •- the Santa ~na River, and on the west by a man-made buffer - the Orange Freeway, These buffer elements should help to lessen any undesirable effects that are characteristic of a ~atch plant. Hewever, ~vhen considering these sites, it becomes necessary to give very serious thought to the visual effects that this use might present to spectators within th? stadium and to those people traveling along the Orange Freeway~ The freewey will be elevated beginring southerly of the AoT, 8 S,FeR.R, and will remain above grade to a puint between Cerritos Avenue and Ball Road,. The elevated fraeway should provide at least a partiai screening effect from the stadium, But the view from the freeway could be rather unsightly unless further screening measures are undertaken. 'f large trees were planted along the boundary line sepa:at';ng a batct~ing operation from the freeway, the visual effect should De greatly improved, not only when viewiny the si'~e from the freeway but from the stadium as ~elle In the Northeast Industiial Area also, the Santa Ana River provides a seemingly adequate buffer between the residential uses on the south bank and the industrial area on the north banke At the present time, there are sand and gravel, and batch plant operations in exist- ence immediately adjacent to the north shore of the river, With the openiny of La Palma Avenue easterly to Imperial Hiqhway, additional riverfront acreage will become available with easy access to these road facilities,. But rather than consider the entire depth between La Palma Avenue extension and the river for batch plants or similar uses, it may be wise to consider the La Palma Avenue frontage to a depth of perhaps 400 feet, to be prime locations for M-1 usese If the front 400 feet sou±h of La Paima Avenue is retained for permitted M-1 uses, this would leave up to 400 feet adjacent to the river that could be used for batch p:ants ~r other heavy industrial uses. Also, ~ny M-1 uses that might be established along La Falma Avenue would serve as a visual screen between the highway and the batch plant facilities. Another reason why this area lends itself favorably to these types of uses is the fact that there are a number of large eucalyptus wind breaks already standing. These trees could serve not oniy as a deterrentto dust spreading but as a visual screen as well. When the existing sand and gravel operations are r,oncluded, it may be p~ssible to use the remaining pits for batching activity, at least temporarily. However, in speaking with Mr. John Collier, Director of the Parks and Recreation Department, ii has been determined that the area west of Richfield Road has been designated, not only by the City, but the wunty as well, for potential recreational facilities~ These facilities would be used in conjunction with the proposed Urange County Water District settling basino Therefore, if the recreational projects are to be completed as proposed, any batch plants should be restricted to the area east of Richiield Road. Another area that has been proposed for recreational facilities and has been excluded as potential batch plant sit?s is the area adjacent tc the river ar.d extending northerly from Ball Road to the Riverside Freeway.," Discussion was held by the Commission relative to the appropriateness of a1loNing b..tch plants in the.Southeast Industrial Area between the proposed Orange Freeway and the Santa Ana River.. It was the feeling of the Commission that since only eleven acres of prime M-2 property is now available for sale in the City, the Southeast Industrial Area e-,sterly of the Orange Freeway is an ideal location foi• expandin9 the M-2, Heavy Industrial, ?~ne. This was predicated on the fact that a natural buffer would exist with the proposed freeway on the west and the Santa Ana River on the east~ It was also noted that because of the prime industrial areas existing in the Northeast Industrial Area, batch plants should be limited to that area as near the river as possible, ' preferably 40~ feet south of La Palma Avenue and easterly of Richfield Road, because noises, * dust, dirt, incompatible structures, and heavy truck traffic, might be detrimental to the ,,tx future development of the industrial area. i " ~ hiINUTES, CITY~PLANNING CUMMISSION, February 15, 1966 2936 REPORTS AND RE~MMENDATIONS - ITF~I NO ~ 5 Cr,ntinued ) Commissioner Perry offered a motion to recommend to the City Council that if any batch plants are to be considered and approved by the City Council or recommended to the Orange County Planning Commission, these should only be located in the Northeast Industrial Area, easterly of Richfield Road, at least 400 feet south of La Palma Avenue, and as near as possible to the Santa Ana River, because of the noise, dust, dirt, types of structures, and heavy truck traffic whicn might have a detrimental effect on any potential industrial development along La Palma Avenueo Commissioner Gauer seconded the motion.

Planning Supervisor Ronald Grudzinski advised the Commission that. a joint study session had been scheduled for the Commission and the Urban Renewal Advisory Committee to present an up-to-date report on the Center City study, said session to begin approximately 8:00 P.M. immediately after the Commission's consideration of public hearings on February 28, 1966. ITEM N0. 7 Communication from the City of Westminster recommending a street name change for Knott Avenue to Goldenwest Streeto A letter addressed to the City Council, in turn referred to the Planning Commission for report and recommendation, from the City of Westminster urging the City Council to consider a street name change of Knott Avenue to Goldenwest Street within the City of Anaheim`s boundaries, was presented to the Commission by Associate Planner Jack Christofferson. Mr. Christofferson also reviewed the history cf the original name of Knott Avenue, and the length of time for said name; thai the City of Garden Grove had qone on record for retain- ing Knott Avenue; that the City of Stanton had received and filed a similar request; and that the City of Buena Park ihrough the City Council on February 8, 1966, had denied the request for a change in the name of Knott Avenue and had further directed that a letter be sent to the City of Westminster requesting that their c4ty change the name of Goldenwest Street to Knott Avenue. Discussion was held as to the length of time each street had been named within the boundaries of the various cities, and Che significance of Knott P.venue to the history of recreation facilities within the City of Anaheim~ Commissioner Rowland offered a motion to recommend to the City Council that the City of Westminster's request for a street name change of Knott Avenue to Goldenwest Street be denied, and the City of Westminster be urged to change the street name ot Goidenwest Street to Knott Avenue, because of the historical background to said street name. Commissioner Gauer seconded the motion, ANJTION CARRIEU~ ITEM N0. 8 Reclassification No. 65-66-48 - Grace Dickerson, petitioner, proposed R-2, Multiple-Family Planned Residential Development on property un the north side of Broadway between Wayside Place and Date Street - revised plans. Associate Planner Jack Christofferson reviewed for ihe Commission the City Council action at the last adjourned public hearing of the proposed R-2, Planned Residential Development for the Dickerson property. It was state,9 that the City Council suggested to the petitioner that the Council would consider revised p:.ans, and ~hat such revised plans should be sub- mitted to the Planning Commission for report prior to City Council consideration~ It was further noted that the petitioner had met s?yeral times with thr Development Services Department to work out the most satisfactory site plan, and that the latest revision was received too late to be considered by the Planning Commission at their January 31st meeting. It was also noted that the densiiy of the proposed development would be 9.5 units per net residential acre, with a coverage of 31~1%• Adequate parking ~•~~~ also indicated for the project. Discussion was held by the Co~mission, at which time the Commission re-affirmed their previous recommendation that the subject proper±y should be developed for single-family ~ residential use. , Commiss~oner Perry offered a motion to recommend to the City Council that it is the opinion of the Planning Commissipn that property under consideration by the City Council in Reclassifica- R tion No. 65-66-48, known as the Dickerson property, remains more suitable for single-family „~ resident=al development; however, if the City Council determines that the higher density is justified, the revised site plan represents probably the least disruptive pattern for R-2 Planned Residential Development for the property.
