VARIANCE N0. 1767 - CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING. DOUGLAS T. MC DONALD, 6872 Via Sola Circle,
Buena Park, California, Owner; requesting permission to waive:
(1) MINIMUM SIDE YARD AND (2) MINIMUM FRONT YARD on property described
as: A rectangularly shaped parcel of land approximately 134 feet by 34 feet, situated
tanyent to and southeasterly of the cul-de-sac of Via Sola Circle, the easterly boundary of
subject property being approximately 630 feet west of the centerline of Knott St.reet, in order
to permit the construction of a single-family residence. Property presently classified R-A,
AGRICUI.TURAL, ZONE.
Subject petition was continued from the meeting of Nlarch 14, 1966, in order to allow time
for the staff to determine the owners of the remaining narrow parcels and for consultation
with the City Mana9er and the City of Buena Park.
No one appeared to represent the petitioner.
Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson advised the Commission that a survey was made to ascertain
the ownership af the other narrow parcels, and ir_ was determined that all but one of the
parcels was owned by adjoining property owners in Buena Park; that the remaining parcel was
owned by the owners of the R-3 development along Del Monte Drive in the City of Anaheim,
~pon which they had constructed a masonry wall; and that the sta:f had heid several conversa-
tions with the Buena Park Planning Department - however, no official action had been received
~ from the Buena Park Planning Commission or the City Council.
Nc one appeared in opposition to subject petition.
THE HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Discussion was held by the Commission regarding the many problems which might occur because
utilities would have to be served by the City of Buena Park, and the property owner would
have a Buena Park address, although technically in the City of Anaheim; that the parcel was
too narrow to provide adeq::ate space to construct a home; and that even if subject petition
were approved, the final determination as to utilities and access would have to be made by
the City of Buena Park.
Commissioner A11red offered Resolution No. 1983, Series 1965-66, and moved for its passaye
and adoption, seconded by Commissioner Mungall, to deny Petition for Variance No. 1767,
based on the fact ±hat the parcel was too ~arrow to develop for an R-1 home; that the approval
; by the Buena Park City Council was necessary in order to obtain utilities,which might create
-_ some hardship; and that the petitioner, although `.echnically in the City of Anaheim, would
have a Buena Park address which might also create problems in services for the property.
(See Resolution Book.)
On roll call the foregoing resolution was passed by the following vote:
AYES: COMMISSIONERS: A11red, Gauer, Herbst, Mungall, Perry, Rowland, Camp.
NOES: COMMISSIONERS: None.
ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: None.
Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson inquired of the Commission whether or not the staff should
continue to contact the Buena Park Plannin9 Department relative to the possibzlity of the
annexation oi the nari•ow parcels since they were already owned by adja~ent property owners
residing in Buena f-ark.
Chairman Camp stated that any further action reaarding subject property should be made by
the petitioner; however, the staff could contact the petitioner and tell him to discuss his
problems with the City of Buena Park.

MINUTES. CITY PLANNING COI~~.~iSSION, March 28, 1966 '29g1
CONDITIONAL USE - Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson advised the Commission that Conaitional
PERMIT N0. 827 Use Permit No. 787 encompassing subject and several other parcels for the
(Continued) expansion of an existing motel and the establishment of a restau~ant was
not being exercised.
Mr. Robert McKay, representing the Taco Bell Company, appr~ared before the Commission and
stated it was their intent to construct an ornamental masonry wall in the area marked on
Katella Avenue; that the proposed restaurant would add a needed facility to the Disneyland
area; that the development was decided to be the best use of subject property after numerous
conferences between the owner and himself; that the owner of the motel was not desirous of
exercising the right granted under the previous conditional use permit; that the proposed
- development would eliminate an eyesore by dedication of the strip of land on which telephone
,,,_;;j~~ poles were located and which extended into the public right-of-way; and that it was their
I i intent to save as many of the large trees on subject property as possible for an esthetic
'~ appearance~
I
Commissioner Gauer inquired whether or not legal action was pending on subject property
between the agent for the petitioner of the previous conditional use permit and the owner
of ~he property, whereupon Mro McKay stated, to his knowledge, or the petitioner's, there
was no legal action pending; and that the plans for the restaurant and the expansion of the
motel had been abandoned because it was not economically feasible for it to be developede
Mr~ C~ Fred Thierbach, 7l5 West Katella Avenue, owner of the 30-u~it motel immediately
adjacent to subject property, appeared before the Commission in opposition and stated he
was opposed to the proposed development and the request for waiver of the required 10-foot
landscaping setback; that the proposed development was located within a few hundred feet of
the Convention Center and was not a desirable development at the front door of the center;
that it would not serve the visitors to Disneyland, but would act as "teenage hangout"
which, in turn, would discourage tourists from patronizing the motels in close proximity to
subject property; that subject property could be developed with a much more attractive use
than proposed, and to grant subject petition just to obtain the dedication and street im-
provements was an insufficient reason; that the proposed development would not add materially
to the area, but would detract from the substantial investments of properties in the area;
that the request for waiver of the landscaped setback would be contrary to the requirements
of the other developments in the area since at a hearing several months ago, a similar re-
quest had been denied, and to grant this would be granting a privilege he did not enjoy;
and that no procf ef hardship had been presented to substantiate the Commission's considera-
tion of granting the waiver.
~~
Mr. McKay, in rebuttal, stated the Taco Bell Company operated ten to twelve similar establish-
ments in Southern California; that their standards were very high; that there was no meeting
place on subject property where teenagers could congreaate, creating the so-called "hangout";
that he did not feel there were that many rowdy youngsters in the area; that many :amili?s
with small children would rather purchzse tar.os which they could take to their motels and
eat at a considerably lower price than if they had g~r.e to a restaurant for expensive meals;
and that if the Commission required a setback to be in accordance with that previously estab-
lished, after consultation with the architect, it was deterrnined this could be done.
THE HEARING WAS CLGSED.
~ Ctc.-c~i ~ k-7
Commissioner ~ stated the reason he was desirous of determiry23 whether legal action was
pending on subject property was because he had received an inquiry from Dr. Fisher, the owner
of the motel,who had advised him he had taken legal action against Mr. Terry; however, because
of business out of town, he was unable to be present at the Commission hea:;.ng, and that he
was desirous of havin9 any problems involved on subject property clarified - whether or not
the difticulty was with the title, the development, or oCherwise,
Mr. McKay then stated he had talked with Mr. Terry that morning, but he had not informed him
there was any legal action pending on subject property; that Dr. Fisher and Mr. Terry had
always had a gooci relationship, and after Dr. Fisher had informed Mr. Terry it was not
economicaily feasible to consummate the deal, Mr. Terry had tri~d to negotiate f~r another
development.
Chairman Camp stat~d that the legal action on subject property should be considered a private
matter and had no bearing on whether or not the proposed use was a good la~d use.
Mr. McKay then stated that after Dr. Fisher had indicated he was no longer i.nterested,
Mr. Terry and he had attempted to find a more feasible use for subject property, and the
pruposed use was considered the most acr.eptable. Furthermore, Mr. Thierbach had opposed
the motel-restaurant operation previously considered by the Commissionj ~tf~~..,,, ~{ ~~~~

CONDITIONAL USE - The Commission discussed the compatibility of the proposed use, its
PERMIT NG. 827 proximity to the Convention Center, the attractive developments in
(Continued) existence in close proximity to subject property, and the proposed
land use for subject property.
Commissioner Perry offered Resolution No. 1984, Series 1965-66, and moved for its passage
and adoption, seconded by Commissioner A11red, to deny Petition for Conditional Use Permit
No. 827 on the basis that the proposed land use would be detrimental to Lhe development
already established in~close proxi!nity; that it would have a deleterious effect on the
Convention Center since it was located almost at the front door of the center; and that
the requested wa_ae:, if granted, would set an undesirable precedent and a pattern of
development for the Commercial-Recreation Area~ (See Resolution Book.)
On roll call the foregoing resolution was passec~ by the following vo*e:
AYES: COAMAISSIONERS: Allred, Gauer, Herbst, Mungall, Perry, Rowland, Camp.
NOES: COMMISSIONEkS: None.
ABSENT: COMMISSIONERS: None.
CONDITIUNAL USE - U~~BLIC HEARING. LINCOL~ PLAZA DEVELOPMENT COMP:INY, Clifford Hemmerling,
PERMIT N0. 829 Lessee, 615 South Elower Street, Los Angeles, California; JOHN A. JOHNSON,
9330 Balboa Avenue, San Diego, California, Ayent; requesting permission to
ESTABLISH ON-SALc LIQUOR IN A RESTAURANT on property described as: An
irregularly shaped parcel of land situated at the northwest corner of Broadway and Euclid
Street and having frontages of approximately 460 feet on Euclid Street and approximately
610 feet on Broadway, and further described as 287 South Euclid Street. rroperty presently
classified C-1, GcNERAL COMMERCIAL, ZONE,
Mr. Allen Johnson, representing the Foodmaker Corporation and agent for the petitioner,
appeared before the Co~wTission and stated that the proposed restaurant was located on
property already zoned C-1; that a bar was proposed for the restaurant, but the restaurant
would be a family-type restaurant and the bar would have no stools as similar cocktail
lounges had.,
Commissioner Gauer asked for clarification of the bar proposed, ar.~ whether or not this
` was just a service bar for the waitresses to pick up the drinks that were ordered, or
~ would liquor be served to the pa•;rons;that in his opinion, there seemed to be two standards
as far as the A~B~C. was concerned regarding the prohibition oF children under eighteen at
_ bars, whereas they were allowed in a restaurant where liquor was also served and no signing
of the prupert.y indicated children were not permitted to patronize the establishment.
Deputy City Attorney Furman Roberts advised the Commission that where the serving of liquor
was incidental to the serving of food, ti~e AeB.C. Board allowed children; however, where
the serving of food was ir,cidental to the serving o~ liquor, children under eighteen were
prohibited:
Cummissioner Ga~er then stated tt~at the serving bar should be screened from view from the
dining are3 with some kind of an ornamental screening.
Mr. Johnson stated he would prefer not to be required to screen the area so that it would
~ not have the appearance of a bar.
i
~ The Commission further noted that one of the requirements for the Howard Johnson rest.aurant
at Lincoln and Wilshire Avenues was the screening of the serving bar so that the liquor
bottles stored on the shelves would not be visible to people who did not like any zeminder
i of liquor, and could keep chil.dren from being subjected to an undesirable influence so
early in life~
Considerable discussion was then held by the Commission regarding the effects of open service
bars on diners in a restaurar.t, and upon its conclusion, asked the petitioner whether or not
he had bars similar to th~t proposed in their other restaurants, whereupon the agent replied
they operated over 200 restaurants which did not have any facilities for the serving of
liquor - however, the area in which the proposed restaurant was located seemed to warrant
the serving of l:quor, and that although no stools were proposed for the service bar, if
customers came over to order a drink, they were served, and the drink could be cortsumed at
the b~r.
,~ The Commission felt the City Planning Commission and the City Council should establish a
policy to require a complete separation of a bar at which liquor was being served, and if
;~ _ the bar was a service bar for waitresses to pick up their orders, these bars should be
screened with ornamental screening from the main dining area in order to eliminate the
,~ ~ objectionable sigtit of bottles from the view of children and people who were opposed to
~~' the sight of liquor..r,,~. ~, .`?z 1

(Continued) The Commission then stated that since the petitioner had indicated
customers would be served from the proposed bar, although said bar
did not provide seats, it should be separated from the restaurant.
Cortunissioner Mungall offered Resoiution No. 1985, Series 1965-06, and moved for its passage
and adoption, seconded by Commissioner Herbst, to grant Petition for Conditional Use Pe:~mit
No. 829, subjec.t to conditions, provided, however, that the proposed bar shall be separated
from the main dining area by a wall if it is to be used to serve customers at the bar, and
if it were to be used by the waitresses as a service bar, that it be screened from view of
the dining area with an ornamental screen. (See Res~li:tic; Book,)

REQUEST FOR SPECIAL - Ccmmissioner Herbst offered a motion to direct the staff to draft
POLICY STATEMENT_~ a policy statement which could be adopted by the Commission and
iecommended for adoption to the City Council which would reqttire
any bar located in a restaurant to be completely separated with
a wall from the main dining area, and also with a separate entrance,
and if the bar was only a service bar, it would be separated from
the main dining area with an ornamentai screen. Commissioner
"7unga1l seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED.

larly shaped parcel of land situated at the northeast corner oi La Palma /~venue and Dowlinc
Avenue and having frontages of approx.imately 150 feet on La Palma Avenue and approximately
150 feet on Dowling Avenue, and further described as 3105 East La Palma Avenue. Progerty
presently classified M-1, LIGHT INDUSI~RIAL, AND P-L, ~ARKING LANDSCAPING, ZONES.
Mr. Don Fink, representinq the agent for the petitioner, appeared before the Commission
and stated additional identification was necessary for the ~ervice station ope:ators in
ordei to be successful and remain in business, and that the other three service storions
at the intersection of Dowling and La Palma Avenues had similar signing and also had
freeway-oriented signs~
Associate Planner Jack Christofferson advised the Commission that the maximum limitation
for signs on subject property was 53 feet and was based on the half-wirith of the st:eet and
distance from an R-A structure.
The C~mmission inquired how the location and hei.ght of the sign was determined, whereupon
Mr~ Fi.nk stated this was derived from line-of-sight studies made by Shell Oil Company.
The Commission was of the opinion that if customers could not be attracted to a station
with a 53-foot sign, then no matter how high the sign was approved, these customers would
never be brought iny that the Sign Ordinance had been written after considerable disCUSSion
with the sign people, as well as the various oil companies, and approval of deviations from
these requirements would render the Sign Ordinance ineffective; and that although a service
station was a permit`~d use in the M-1 Zone, it was important that all sign regulations in
the M-1 Zone be str:.ctly enforced~
It was also noted by the Commission that if the oil cc: ~anies would spend as much time in
the selection of the site of a proposed service statior. .3s they did on the types c~f signs
that were necessary, the success of the service station would be greatly assisted.
No one appeared in opposition to subject petition.
THE HEARING WAS CLOSED.
ThN Commission in reviewing the land use of subject. and abutting properties noted tltiat the
Gulf Uil Corporation had established their service station at that intersection after the
adoption of the Sign Ordinance in December of 1964; that the sign limitations of the Sign
Ordinance were reviewed by the oil industry, and waiver of the Sign Ordinance would be

VARI.4NCE N0. 1774 - inconsistent with the requirements made of other properties developed
(Continued) after the Sign Ordinance was adopted; that the petitioner had not
shown a hardship existed in land use; and i:hat although service stations
were permitted in the M-1 Zone, any waiver of the Sign Ordinance would
set an undesirable precedent for similar requests for signing in the M-~ ~one.
Commissioner Rowiand offered Resolution No. 1986, Series 1965-66, and moved for its passage
and adoption, seconded by Co.mmissioner Mungall, to deny Petition for Variance No. 1774,
based on the fact that tne height of signs in the M-1 Zone as depicted in the Sign Ordinance
was adequate to provide signing for subject property; that to permit the requested waiver
would establish an undesirable precedent for similar requests in the M-1 Zone; and that the
petitioner had shown no hardship existed to warrant deviation from the Sign Ordinance.

THE NEARiNG WHS CLGSELI.
The Commission noted that on field observation in the morning, subject property already had
an illuminated arrow and directional sign to the entrance of the carwash, that the existing
lights on subject property appeared to be in violation of code requirement, and inquired of
Deputy City Attorney Furrnan Robzrts whether or nct this could be termed "spot" or "flashing"
lights, and whether the foot lambexts for the sign was within code requirements.
Mr, Roberts stated this would have to be checked with the Building Department since there
was a possibility they may have had the correct foot lamberts at the time of the installa-
tion; however, ;,:~P foot l~mberts in the lamps might have been chan9ed since the Building
Department haU 9ivcn their final inspection, and that he wculd make the inquiry of the
Building Departme~: relative to this.
It was also noted by the Commission that the petitioner had, upon their inspection, more
signs than code permitted in the paaking area; that there •..as a possibility because the
carwash had twelve gas pumps,the site development standards of the service station should
be adhered to relative to sign size and firE protection, etc.
Mr. Roberts advised the Commission that it could direct the staff to study the problem
relative to the combined uses of a carwash and pumping of gas since the definition of a
service station was considerably broader in uses than appear to be apparent in the pumping
of gas and carwashes~
Commissioner Allred offered Resolution No. 1987, Series 1965-66, and m:;ved for its passage
and adoption, seconded by Commissioner Herbst, to deny Fetition for Uariance No. 1775,
based on the fact that no proof was presented that a hardship existec! in tha signing of
subject property; that sutject propezty already had adequate directional signs; and that
if the location of the proposed sign we:e approved, a hardship might exist in the devalop-
ment of the commercial property to the west of subject property. {See Resolution Booko)

GENERAL PLAN - PUBLIC HEAf,ING. INITIATED BY THE CITY PLANNING CONA4ISSION,
AA1°NDMENT N0. 74 204 East Lincoln Avenue, Anaheim, Califarnia; propcsing an
amendment to the Circulation Element - Highway Rig';,s-of-Way
of the General Plan to establish the width of the south side
of La Palma Avenue betweer. Anaheir Boulevard on the east and
Harbor Boulevard on the west as 53 feet.
Associate Planner Marvin Krieger presented General Plan Amendment No. 74 to the P~anning
Commission and reviewed the action taken by the Commission on General Plan Amendment No. 73
which covered the area on the south side of La Palma Avenue from Anaheim Boulevard easterly
to the railroad tracks east of Pauline Street. Mr. Krieger also noted that the General
Plan Circulation Element - Hiqhway P,ights-of-Way presently designates La Palma Avenue, within
the area under conside~ation, to be a primary highway with an exception for the south side of
La Palma Avenue betweer, Anaheim Boulevard and Harbor Boulevard. It was explained that La
Palma Avenue would become a major east-west r.oute from the City of Lakewood ;o and through
the Northeast Industrial Area extending to the Imperial Freeway on the east, and that with
the completion or the Riverside Freeway overpass and the section of La Palma Avenue between
Pauline Street and East Street, a trafric flow would be developed that wouid exceed the
existing carrKing capacity of La Palma Avenue.
It was further explained that in considerin9 the results of N~idenir.g on the south side of
the street, a study was made of the fsasibility of utilizing a por±ion of La Pa~ma P~rk on
the north side of La ~alma Avenue between Harbor Boulevard and Lemon Street in lieu of re-
quiring the 20~5-foot dedication or~ the south side in this particular area.
A report from the Pa.rk and R?creation Department indicates a minimum expenditure of $276,000
as the dedication, if taken irom the north side, would pass through a portion oi the existing
grandstand. it was further explained that the util~zation of the portion of the La Palma
Park property would require the offsetting of the centerline of La Palma Avenue, and, as such,
is r.ot in .:onformance with the exi.sting policy of the City, in that the jogging ,:: moving of
the centerline of t.t,e street presents problems in aligning traffic flow and, in the opinion
ef the Traffic Enginee~, would create traffic hazards in addition to the necessity of main-
taining an equality in dedication requirements.
The report from the P,rk and kacreation Department further explained that tn> shifting of the
centerline and the subsequent utilization of a pc,rtion of ~he park would further create a
' prob~em in that the La Paima Park stad:um is the heaviest used facility in the entire park
~ system - it is utilized from February 1 to November 15 for baseball, as well as the dressinq
; rooms being used for football during the football season.
The Traffic Engineer was availabie for comment and question, and Chairman Camp asked that
the persons who were present in the Council Chamber, as weli as those who were affected in
the prop~sed amendment, be informe' as to what the approximate time street widening would
talce effect.
affic En3ineer Ed Granzow advised the Commission that no positive dates could be given,
bit that upon the com~letion of that portion of La Palma Avenue between Pauline to East
i St:eet, the Public Utility Commission ordered the North Street railroad crossing closed,
~ and that upon the closing of IJorth Street, there would be an immediate shiftin9 of some
6,000 cars per day to La Palma Avenue. The present traffic count west of Harbor Boulevard
~' on La Palma was more than 16,000 cars per day, and that the count could rise conceivably
~ to 12,000 cars per day east of Harbor Boulevard on the opening of the La Palma Avenue
P extension.
~, Mr. Granzow further explained that with the openi.ng of the La Palma Avenue extension, and
the opening of the freeway c~~erpass, La Palma Avenue would become an alternate route for
N the freeway,
~
~ Mr. Krieger furth~er advised that the study had revealed that an approximate value of the
parcels on the south side of the street from Harbor Boulevard to Lemon, opposite the park,
, ; was $264,875 exclusive of any c~;,ts necessary in moving tanks or pumps on the service station
~ at the southeast corner or Harbor and La Palmao A striping plan for La Palma Avenue as it
~ now exists was shown as an exhibito
~
~ Mr. Granzow explained that approximately four lanes of traffic could be placed upon La Palma
as it now stood; utilizing parking in some places and deleting parking in others.
A discussion was held as to ttie possibility of utilizing diagonal parking for the park,
' and Mr. Granzow explained that diagonal parking would eliminate the use of gas tax funds
for street construction.

GENERAL PLAtJ AMENDMENT NO 74 (Continued)
There were 16 interested persons present in the Council Chamber.
Mrs. White explained that two years ago, when she had filed a petition to permit expansion
of her r*~attress factory, she had been assured the street widening would not take place on
the south side of La Palma Avenue, and that she had spent considerable money in the ex.pansion.
She furth~r stated that the property owners felt the additional land needed for street widen-
: ing should be taken from the pa. .. Mrs. White further explained that many of the property
owners affected were elderly co~~les living on fixed incomes who had resided on t,he south
side of La Palma many years, and since it was evident the expansion of the street would take
a portion of the homes represented, they did not desire to be uprooted. She further requested
' info.rmation, again, as to when any such widening would take place.
::~1lf-~ Chairman Camp stated that all property owners would be contacted long before any street
1 widening took place since the property wo~ld have to be dedicated
;~ ' widenino. prior to the actual street
Under questioning, Chairman Camp further ~tated the City would attempt to !-~andle traffic
with the present street width; however, all property owners involved who planned to place
their property on the market for sale, as w=11 as prospective buyers, should be made aware
the City was contemplating a change in the General Plan Circulation Element requiring addi-
tionai street widening on the south side of La Palma Avenue, and that if any p~rchase of
property was necessary in the final analysis, a fair market value of these properties would
be given.
Mr. Joe Liles further questioned the Traffic Engineer as to the traffic counts on Harbor
Boulevard, and if these counts indicated that La Plama could handle the possible increase
in traffic without widening. He further questioned the advisability of the placing of a
traffic signal at Lemon and La Palma; the Traffic Engineer explained that any signal in
this location certainly would be coordinated with the other signals in the area.
Mr. Liles further inquired into the feasibility of an underoass on North Street to permit
North Street to be still utilized as an east-west street; whereupon the Traffic Engineer
replied that Lhe Katella Avenue underpass, for instance, had cost a million dollars, and
the railroad paid only 10% of tliat cost.
Mr., Erwin Garrison, 948 North Helena Street, appeared before the Commission and stated
that everyone on the street would be happy if the land needed for street widening would
be taken from tt,e p:rk site, and in that way only one side of the street would have to be
_ torn up and curbs and gutters replaced without disrupting the lives of any of the residentse
THE HEARINu WAS CLCISED.
The Commission was of the opinion that proFerty shoiild be acquired from the south side of
the street rather than the utilization of the proper;y from the now existin9 park, as the
cost of moving the stadium would be excessive, not to mention the proelems of disruption
of the annually planned and scheduled park events withi~, La Paima Park. The Commission
was further of the opinion that with the completion of the freeway overpass and the Pauline
to East Street section, La Palma Avenue would become a major arte~~ol si,reet carrying east-
west traffic through the City to and through the Northeast Industrial Area.
Cortmissioner Herbst offered Resolution No. 1993, Series 1965-56, and moved for its passage
and adoption, seconded by Commissioner Perry, to recommend to the City Council that Generai
Plan Amendment No. 74 be approved, mak~ng La Palma Avenue a primary highway without exception~
