Commissioner Rowland, in his vote of "no", stated that the proposed use was inconsistent
with the Commission's recommendations made under General Plan Amendment Nos. 52 and 90
and Area Development Plan No. 22, since the City Council felt medium density use for the
east side of East Street between La Palma Avenue and Wilhelmina Street might not oe advis-
able, and asked that C-0 uses be considered, and that nursery schools were a primary
residential operation and not a residential use, and, therefore, inconsistent with past
Commission action.

VARIANCE N0. 1852 - PUBLIC I-~ARING. BEULAH B. WATSON, 701 North Elm Drive, Beverly Hills,
California, Owner; ATLANTIC RICHFIELD CORPORATION, 1786 West Lincoln
Avenue, Anaheim, California, Agent; requesting WAIVER OF MAXIMUM
PERMITTED SIGN HEIGHT on property described as: A rectangular parcel of land located at
the southwest corner of Lincoln and Dale Averiues with a frontage of approximately 125
feet on Lincoln Avenue and approximately 125 feet on Dale Avenue, and further described
as 2800 West Lincoln Avenue. Property presently classified C-1, GE~l~RHL CU~+IMERCIAL, ZGNE.
Associate Planner Jack Christofferson reviewed the location of subject property and the
proposed request, together with the findings of the Report to the Commission, summing up
with the fact that a field check by the Staff indicated the existing sign was visible
from at least 350 feet to the west; however, little benefit would be received beyond 350
feet, even though the request might be approved.
Mr. William Kelleher, representir.g Atlantic Richfield Corporation, appeared before the
Commission and stated it was their desire to improve the visibility from the west and
south of the existing service station site; that there were a considerable number of trees
which blocked view of the existing sign from both the south and west, as well as commercial
signs; and that adequate signing was necessary to obtain any prospective business from both
the south and west.
The Commission noted that the existing service station site had an unusually attractive
landscapin9 arrangement and congratulated the petitioner.
No one appeared in opposition to subject petition.
THE HEARING WAS CLOSED.
The Commission noted that little would be gained by adding the small amount of additional
height to the existing site since the trees in close proximity to subject property wereof
the deciduous type, and when thefoliage grew'inthe Spring, any height would be.completely
oblit=rated, and that the petitioner had not shown any undue hardship; furtnermore, granting
subject petition might establish a precedent for similar requests.
Commissioner Rowland offered Resolution No. PC67-33 and moved for its passaae and adoption,
seconded by Commissioner Herbst, to deny Petition for Variance No. 1852, on the basis that
the requested variance would provide the petitioner with only a temporary relief from the
ntstruction of trees to the west; that granting subject petition might establish a precedent
for similar requests from other properties in close proximity for waiver of the sign height;
and that signiny of subject property w?th a 25-foot sign was adequate as required by Code.

SETBACK AND WAIVER OF THE REQUIRED PARKING on property described as: A rectangularly
shaped parcel of land located on the south side of Broadway and having a frontage of
approximately 50 feet, the easterly property line being approximately 110 feet west of
the centerline of Philadelphia Street. Property presently classified C-1, GEPJERAL
CO~vVv1ERCIAL, ZUNE.
Associate Planner Jack Christofferson reviewed .'or the Commission the location of subject
property and the proposed request, also noting that although a waiver was advertised for
off-street parking, the shortage of parking spaces had existed since 1959, and the proposed
tandem parking was an improvement over tlie existing facilities; furthermore, in the event
subject petition was approved, the waiver of the parking would apply to the existing struc-
ture, and any major alterations of the structure, or construction of new building on subject
property, would require meeting Code parking requirements.
~~~; Mr. Richard Jones, one of the petitioners, appeared before the Commission and stated he
~~~ was available to answer questions.
- The Commission asked that the petitioner clarify what was meant by a"shingle wall",
~ whereupon Mr. Jones stated that it could be likened to the facia of the "Family Tree"
~ restaurant located on the west side of Euclid Street between Lincoln Avenue and Bruadway.

VARIANCE N0. 1853 - Mr. William Love, repres>nting Mrs. E. K. Rae, 224 East Broadway,
(Continued) appeared before the Commission and stated he was interested in learning
for Mrs. Rae the proposed use of subject property.
Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson then presented the plans to Mr. Love and explained what
was proposed.
The Commission noted there would be no land use change, a~d the petitioners were asking
only to permit a fence in the front setback, which was requesting a waiver of Code require-
ments.
Mr. Love then discussed at great length the problems concerning the parking difficulties
'' ~ on Broadway, noting that during the week the City employees utilized all the parking
~.:~~ ~ space on the street, and on Sunday the parishioners of the church at Philadelphia Street
and Broadway utilized these parking facilities; that he had attempted during the past ten
~'.I~ years to persuade the City Council to davelop a 15 or 20-minute loading zone so that resi-
dents of the street could have temporary access to their hemes from this loading zone -
~~ however, this has never been accomplished.
Y. .I

fi The Commission advised Mr. Love that any changes in the striping for temporary parking
}-.~ - facilities would be at the recommendation of the Police Department, and the Commission
[~ had no jurisdiction over parking along a public street; furthermore, if Mr. Love was
F~ interested, he could contact the Chief of Police, Mark Stephenson.

RECLASSIFICATIUN - Mr. H. S. Leedy, the petitioner, appeared before the Commission,
N0. 66-67-49 stating that he had expected the agent to be present; however, he
would be willing to answer any questions the Commission might have.
CONDITIONAL USE He also noted that dedication requirements as recommended by the
PERfdIT N0. 919 Staff would be complied with.
(Continued)
~ The Commission discussed the possibility of improving the alley to
the rear of subject property and inquired of Office Engineer Arthur
Daw whether or not full dedication had been received.
. Mr. Daw advised the Commission that only a 15-foot wide alley was necessary; however,
: T,;,~~ no plans were in the foreseeable future for improving the dedicated alley, although the
~,,~ Director of Public Works had attempted to set up an alley improvement program, and that
~; ~ no additional dedication was required ~ince there was a possibility that upon its ultimate
~`~~~ development it would be a one-way alley.
>~
;' The Commission r.oted that the plot plan indicated the exit tn the alley frcm the wa:~;-up
E'j restaurant was proposed.
i
~~ Mr. Leedy stated that it was the intent of drivin throu h the
;} _, 9 g property, having access
to the alley, and then using either Harding or Grand Avenues to gain entry to Lincoln
.:J_ Avenue.
Zoning Supervisor 4onald Thompson and Commissioners Allred and Farano discussed the plot
plan with the petitioner. The petitioner then inquired why a nearby "Tastee Freez" walk-
up restaurant was permitted to have a structure adjacent to the curb, and the Commission
was requesting that the 35-foot setback be maintained along Lincoln Avenue.
Assistant Development Services Director Robert Mickelson advised the Commission that the
City Council had granted this waiver at the time the Tastee Freez was considered by them
at reclassification.
No one appeared in opposition to subject petition.
THE 1-IEARING NJAS CLOSED.
The Commission,in reviewing the prooosed plot plan, noted that the lighting pole, 15 feet
in height with two 500-watt bulbs, would create considerable light, as well as the two
8-foot long fluorescent lights along the Harding Avenue frontage, and if this type of light-
ing was proposed, any lightin9 would have to be directed away from the residential properties
both south of subject property and across Lincoln Avenue to the north.

:.i propert~ and the Commission's findings for recommending denial of the previous request
for deletion of deed restrictions was also noted.
s Attorney Harry Knisely, representing the petitioner, appeared before the Commission and
p reviewed a letter from Tishman Associates regarding C-1 Zoning within the City.
~~` '_ Mr. Knisely also noted tnat the City had recognized the fact that potential commercial use
:i was the proper zoning for subject property since 1961; however, at that time, because the
n..l City did not have C-0 ~oning, deed restrictions were attached to the C-1 Zone granted.
,~ Furthermore, the permitted uses were too restrictive for subject property; therefore, it
~ had r.ot been developed, and that the previous amendment to deed restriction request had

RECLASSIFICATION - Further discussion was held between the Commission and Mr. Knisely
N0. 66-67-50 regarding the proposed request and the fact that there seemed to be
• (Continued) an oversupply of store buildings and office buildinys which were vacant.
THE HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Commissioner Rowland was of the opinion that in 1951 when the zone change for subject
property was made, it was spci zcning, and this was bourne out of the fact that in five
years no development had t~ken ple~ce on the property; that the existing restrictive uses
, for subject property were necessary to protect the adjacerit residential development; and
that the Commission should consider subject petition on the basis of whether or not the

RECLASSIFICATION - PUBLIC HEHRING. WALTER A. GOCDEN AND PAUL H. PLETZ, 1731-A South Euclio
N0. 66-67-51 Street, Anaheim, California, Owners; JAMES HODGES, 1731-A South Euclid
Street, Fnaheim, California, Ager.t; requesting that property described
as: A rectangularly shaped parceJ o: land having a irontage of approxi-
mately 135 feet on the south side of Lincoln Avenue and having a maximum depth of approxi-
mately 340 feet, the westerly boundary of subject property being approximately E60 :eet
east of the centerline of Euclid Sireet, be reclassified from the R-A, AGRICULTURAL, ZONE
to the C-3, HEAVY CONW~ERCIAL, ZO!JE.
Associate Planner Jack Christofferson reviewed the location of subject property and the
proposed request, noting that development plans were only "concept" plans in which the
petitioner indicated the proposed automotive center and rPStaurant, and that the petitioner
had indicated he would comply with the 35-foot building setback ~lor~g Lincoln Avenue and
develop in accordance with the C-1 site development st~~~dards. Furthermore, a basic
problem had developed since no provision had been planned :or the 4.77-acre parcel to the
south, also owned by the petitioner, for access from Pampas Lane, and it would be land-
locked except for a half-width of Pampas Lane which dead-ended into the southwesterly
boundary of subject property.
Mr. James Hodges, agent for the petitioner, appeared before the Commission and stated the
petitior.er was attempting to develop the property in accordance with the Staff's recomme;~d.:-
tions, and that it was felt the recommended concitions were necessary to best serve the
interests of the City and his clients.
Mr. Hodges, in response to Commission questionin9, stated that it was hoped to develop
the 4.77-acre parcel southerly of subject property for R-3 purposes and heavy commarci~l
uses along Lincoln Avenue; that there was a possibility thc: a~utting property would be sub-
divided in the future which would necessitate haviny streets; that the rental spaces
indicated on ttie concept plans were proposed to attract clients in the automotive industry:
that the petitioner was negotiating with the AAMCO Transmi.snion Company for 4,000 to
5,000 square feet; that the Staff had recommended C-3 Zone because of the automotive use
proposed; that it was doubtful that the proposed restaurant would be developed since onl~~~
one person was interested in the development, and he had advised his clients to estaulish
rnore compatible commercial uses for that property.
- Mr. Ray Cook, owner of the apartments at 1651 Pampas Lane, appeared before the Commissio~~
~ in opposition and stated that the dust and noise from any tieavy co~nmercial use, togeti~er
~ with high lights, would be de+.rimental to the residential environment of the apartments
located to the west of the proposed heavy commercial use; that since no precise plans or
development plans had been s~bmitted regarding the 4.77-acre parcel to the south, this
n1
MINUTES, CI1'Y PLANNING COMMISSION, February 15, 1967 3338
RECLASSIFICATION - would remain a landlocked parce'., and there was always the possibility
N0. 66-67-51 that the commercial use would extend to the entire vacant parcel, which
(Continued) would be detrimental to the peace, health, safety, and general welfare
of the apartment dwellers in his units.
THE HEARING WAS CLOSED.
~ Discussion was held by the Commission relative to requiring more definite development plans
arci~+~hether the zoning application was proper or improper for Lincoln Avenue.
, Commissioner Rowland offered Resolution IJo. PC67-39 and moved for its passage and adoption,
F' ^'~~ seconded by Commissioner Farano, to recommend to the City Council that Petition for Reclassi-
,~ fication IJo. 66-67-51 be approved, subject to development ir, accordance with the C-1 site
~f ~ development standards and deletion of Condition Ido. 4, requiring the Parcel Map recordin9,
~'(~ and Condition No. 5, requiring the applicant to execute an agreement for street dedication
~-I and improvement purposey.
~j Considerable discussion was then held between trte Commission and the Zoning Staff regarding
J the proposed deletion of two conditions.
w;
I -~ Mr. Mickelson stated that Condition No. 7 was contingent upon applying Condition No. 4;
w'~ that any site development standards would apply to landscaping and setbacks only and had
~i no jurisdiction over subdivisions of property.
;tI
~ Commissioner Rowland noted that at such time as development for the soutnerly portion o:
~~~ subject property was proposed, deoication could be requ:red for street access at that time,
~'~ and there was the possibility that tne entire parcel would be developeo for C-3 uses, there-
i~ by negating the recommendation of a Parcel Map and provision ior dedication of 60 feet ior
't' a street extension of Pampas Lane.
E:
r; Commissioner Rowland then s~ated that a finding be made through his offer of the resolution
that Pampas Lane did not constitute sufficient access for the r=ar portion of subject
, property,and that the proposed commercial use of subject property was inadequate to provide
• ;or proper circulation to Lincoln Avenue, and that at such time as development of the
,' , southerly portion of the 4.77-zcre parcel south of subject property took place, some
~; ; provision should be made to provide access by the extension o: Pampas Lane through said

i hssociate Planner Marvin Krieger presented the proposed amenoment to Chapter 18.13, R-H-
10,000, Residential Hillside, Zone, noting that the City Council had withheld the first
reading of the ordinance in order that clarification might be made regarding Section

, street, whereas a fire hydrant was required only 400 feet from a stand'ord street. It

was presented to the Commission, this was reduced to 200 feet and this discrepancy was
' not discove-red until the ordinance was being prepared by the City Attorney's office; and
I that the proposed amendment would be in accordance with the Commission's previous considera-

Coverage factor in the R2-5,000 One-Famil.y, Zone.
Assistant Planner Charles Roberts presentzd a report on the coverage factor of the R2-
5,000 One-Family, Zone as follows:
FINDINGS:
1. The R2-5,000 Zone presently provides that a maximum of d5% of the lot area
may be covered by roofed structures.
2. As of this date, four subdiv:sions have been approved for R2-5,000 type development.
One has been completed (Butler-Horbour), another is iindez construction (9utler-
Harbour), and construction on the other two (Rinker-Orchard ~rive and r~orth side of
Riverside Freeway at the Newport Freeway? has not yet Gegun.
3. ~he R2-5,000 Zone was intended to encourage a reduction of density in those areas
that have been deemed appropriate for m2dium and low-medium ~iensity uses on the
General Plan. By permitting 5,000 square foot lots a lesse~ density is achieved
than would be normally permitted in low-medium and medium d?nsity residential zones,
yet a greater density than that permitted in the R1-7,200 square foot Zone.
It is contemplated that the single-family character of a development is to be
retained by providing open space on individual lots in an amount proportionate
to what is provided on an R1-7,200 square foot lot.
~'{; ~ CONCLUSION:
~ 1. Upon investigation of tl~e developments that have already been constructed, i~ is
,, obvious that the present maximum coverage :actor is not leaving adequate open
* ~ a.rea on the lot.

Considerable discussion was held between the Commission and Staff regardin9 the fact that
if the coverage percentage was reduced, and developers found it necessary to build
larger homes, they would start construction of two-story homes; the fact that calculations
had been made cn R-2 dev?lopments just completed or in the construction stages, with the
result that some were 38-39% and others were 43.8% coverage; and that this resulted in the
study presented to the Commission. It was also noted by the Staff that if the Commission
felt coverage could be reduced, this could be considered at public hearinga
