RECLASSIFICATION - PUBLIC HEARING. JENNIE L. DINKLER, 8262 Rio Vista Street, Anaheim,
N0. 6'7-68-98_ California, Owner; HAROLD L. RAAB, 14482 Beach Boulevard, Westminster,
California, Agent; property described as: A rectangularly shaped

mately 660 feet on the east side of Rio Vista Street.and a maximum
TENTATIVE MAP OF depth of approximately 1,320 feet, the southerly boundary of said
TRACT N0. 6647, parcel being approximately 560 feet north of the centerline of
REVISION N0. 1 Lincoln Avenue. Property presently classified R-A, AGRICULTURAL,
ZONE.
REQUESTcD CLASSIFICATION: R-2-5000, ONE-FAMILY, ZONE.
REQUESTED VARIANCE: WAIVERS OF (1) MAXIMUM IAT COVERAGE AND (2) MINIMUM FRONT
SETBACK.
TENTATIVE TRACT REQUEST: DEVELOPER: S. 8 S. CONSTRUCTION COMPANY, 8857 Nest Olympic
Boulevard, Beverly Hills, California. ENGINFER: Raab and
Boyer Engineering Company, 14482 Beach Boulevard, Suite I,
W estminster, California. Proposal is to subdivide subject
property into 11b R-2-5000 zoned lots.
Associate Planner Charles Roberts reviewed the location of subject property, the proposed
request for R-2-5000 zoning, and the waivers of maximum lot coverage and minimum front
setback to permit garaqes opening onto a street, with a 14.5-foot setback,.and that the
property would be subdivided into 116 R-2-5000 zoned lots with the square footage of the
homes ranging in size from 2126 feet to 2376 feet, which included the garages.
Mr. Roberts also noted that the General Plan indicated this area for low density residen-
tial use which the City had adhored to in the East Anaheim area, and that the Commiseion
would have to determine whether the R-2-5000 Zone was appropriate for subject property.

RECLASSIFICATION - Mr. Roberts then reviewed the Planning Commission and.City Council
N0. 67-68-98 action on the previous request for R-2-5000 on the 13-acre parcel
VARIANCE Np. 1989 to the south and east of subject property, noting that the City '

(Continued)
i '~
w
th the problem of consideration of greater density for this area, a~
and to determine whether the character of the area had changed to
warrant consideration of a higher density. Furthermore, the Commis-
sion also would be faced with the fact of considering the waivers ;;;~
requested for coverage since the City had recently amended the R-2-5000 Zone to reduce
~ the cove

to 40~, on the basis that the development on these 5000-square ~~'•'~
foot lots did not give adequate open area, arid that a safety factor was involved since
it `~'~
was necessary, because of the size of automobiles required a 20-foot apron between `:~
the sidewalk.and the garage in order to prevent automobiles from hanging over the public ~~
right-of-way. ".~
~
I
Mr. Bernard McCune, representing the petitioner, appeared before the Commission and ! 1
'
noted that at the time the tentative tract map was filed, the concept was similar to ~ ~
that considered by the Planning Commission several weeks agc on the Vandenberg property
~
~
,
and after di,scussions with the staff, it was determined to have the sidewalks closer to ~
the home than adjacent to the curb; that the price range of these homes was from $28
000
,
i
to $38,000, and the square footage would be between 1800 and 4000 square feet - however
,
the same problem occurred relative to one-story homes, and it was impossible to build
the one-story homes with all the amenities the prospective homeowner required; that they
expanded from the minimum 5000-square foot lot to 5200 square feet, and rather than
pro- '~
pose one subdivision with all two-story homes, he was requesting the Commission to u
consider allowing at least 35~ o£ the lots to have the variance waivers, which would '
apply only to the one-story homes; and that the requested waiver for setbacks was being
wfthd
a
i
r
wn s
nce they were cognizant of the fact that one could not park a car without
obstructing.the sidewalk, and
furthermore
the
c
ld
t
bt
i
,
,
y
ou
no
o
a
n loans on the type of
home proposed in the R-2 Zone unless the setback was a minimum of 20 feet.
The Commission inquired whether or not the one-story homes would be interspersed with
the two-story homes, and whether they had any difficulty selling one-story homes adjacent i
to two-story homes. ~ .
;~
Mr. McCune noted that the one-story homes would be interspersed with a varied front 4 ,,
, t;
~"
,~
setback; that the buyers of these homes were very discriminating; and that they had
~
no problem selling the one-story homes adjacent to two-story homes.
Reverend Gabriel Ashie, 141 South Kingsley Street, appeared before the Commission in )
opposition and stated that he represented the property owners of the R-l tracts to the ~
east and nor.th of subject property; that all were in opposition to approval of the lots ~ '"'
which were less than those developed adjacent to subject property; that the City Council
h
as concurred in the opposition of the homeowners in this area by stating that the ;
property could be developed for R-1 by denying the request of the petitioners of the `~+
property immediately to the south of subject property; that the trend of development ~
of homes in this area east of Rio Vista Street had been established for 7200-square foot
lots, and if the 5000-square foot lot were deemed acceptable, they should be considered
for•the properties immediately adjacent to the Orange Freeway where the area is con-
sidered appropriate for low-medium and medium density development; that the argument that
7d3;
f th
o
e residents working in Anaheim did not reside in the City was not valid since
1
the converse could also be stated - that many af the homeowners of the properties to the `
east and north lived in Anaheim but did not work in Anaheim; that the reason the 7096 did '~
not reside in Anaheim was that there was an insufficient number of hiah-quality homes;
and that high-quality homes on Brookhurst Street north of Cerritos Avenue were built
and being sold rather rapidly because they were of higher quality than some of the R-1 `'
homes adjacent to them. , +
i
Reverend Ashie further noted that his home was 2725 square feet on a 7200-square foot ~
~
lot, and the developer indicated they planned homes up to 4000 squarF feet on 5000- '
`
square foot lots; that the petitioner was proposing an increase of from 4.2 homes per ;
acre to 6.5 homes per acre - or a difference of from 85 R-1 homes to 116 as proposed; ; f
and that this would have a detrimental effect on the adjoining homes. ,
Mr. Roberts noted that the 6.5 homes per acre was based on gross acieage, not net ~
acreage as the 4.2 homes for R-1 was based.
'.i
Mr. William Hiner, 227 South Kingsley Street, appeared in opposition and stated that he
had spoken at the City Council public hearing, suggesting that the property owners of ~
the remaining large R-A parcels aasterly of Rio Vista Street should meet with the '
Commission and City Council and develop a master plan that would encompass 7200-square ~

`~' RECLASSIFICATION_ - foot lots and build executive_type homes in this area; that if
~ i. N0. 67-68-98 _ this arrangement ~ere approved, this would probably require new
F VARIANCE N0. 1989 ownership in order to make the'change; that it would raisa the
,~~ TENTATIVE MAP DF value of eact~ lot, ar,-3 this was the laEt large area in the City
"`^° TRACi N0. 6647, where this could happen; that if Mr. McCune, of the con,truction
ry REVISION N0. 1 company proposing to develop the property planned to build the
~~? ' (Continued) type of homes he proposed on a 5200-square fuot lot, this type
"~?:`:"`` of home would be much more desirable on the R-1, 7200-square
,~~, ' foot lot; that if a master plan were designed for this area, which
would encompass the entire area from the frontage road to Lincoln Avenue, this would
,,,,,~'~, be one of.the biggest factors in the City where the City could establish a quality,
,~.~:~ti executive type_of living area; that he felt this was a very important project; that
,>'~~'">?:~ he had an opportunity two years ago to purchase a home in Tustin and the hill area -
~`;'"~;' however, he was more des~rous of livin9 in Anaheim, and, therefore, he w~s residing
on Kingsley Street; and that he knew of many people who were mcre..desirous of living in
~ this area but did not want to own:a smaller lot or a hodge-podge home.
i
~-• Mr. Hiner further noted that by proposing 7200-square foot lots, the owner of the
~~ property still could obtain the asking price per acre for his property, and the developer
a_ still could develop the quality type homes and obtain the price for them also.
t+- Mr. McCune, in rebuttal, stated that he feit the proposed homes would be equal or better
~=;:: •" than those.in the area; that the price range would be up to $38,000, or hi9her; that
c, ~ the price.of,the land and
price of construction of a home in this day and age were
~;.•-;,;:;~; considerably more than the average wage-earner could pay, and the homes were priced
', for the top 18~ - the people who could afford these homes; that if the property were
~ >, subdivided into 720G-square foot lots, this would not be economical_y feasible and no
~ !}; builder would want to build a better home; that the Commission should cor.sider the
~ ~ quality of the home being proposed rather than the coverage of the lot; that the
~ •j~ Commission must consider they •~vere proposing 6.5 lots per acre, and there was always
~~ _'-.,~ the possibility someone could request construction of apartments or a condominium, or
s~, ~ concept which would be in excess of the 6.5 lots per acre he was proposing; and that
'~~~, ~ they were proposing homes similar to the ones they had developed in College Park in
~-; .-.a,~ Seal Beach, and one of every seven homeowners there worked in Anaheim - this was one
.r~'J~{~ of the reasons they wanted to come into the°City, because they felt they•could offer
~~1~~°~,~' the' City something 'to be •proud of.
tw, ,~°r~
~°1~"~~' Asststant Development Services Director Robert Mickelson noted that the-R-2-5000 Zone
~~ ~; was created'for ultimate development of areas approved for low-medium or medium density
.~, y: on the General Plans that the property north of Orangethorpe Avenue, known as the
~~rr~,J,; Butler-Harbour tract, originally was zoned for R-2, and t}7e Rinker property was zoned
~:~:..:;';q: for R-3.
Mr. Mickelson further noted that there were varyin,g stages of zoning when the R-2-5000
Zone first was approved - namely, that a General Plan amendment as well as a reclassi-
fication t4 the most appropriate zone was required.- however, at the direction af the
City Counci], that the property be considered along with the General Plan amendment as
well as just the R-2-5000 2one request; that when the Commission recently considered
a General Plan amendment for this general area, six different proposals were presented,
and the final determination by the Planning Gommission was to indicate medium density
around a shopping center and the balance to be developed for low density residential
uses; that.the staff felt that since the General Plan amendment already had been con-
sidered for this area previously, there was no need to advertise another General Plan
amendment. Furthermore, the Commission should be cognizant of the fact that still
another Geoeral Plan amendment and a trailer park application were undex consideration
for proper•ties.in this generaT area.
Mrs. Ann Madison, realtor, appeared before the Commission and noted that the size of
the lot was not the criteria on the quality of the home, and the ~homes located on
State College.Boulevard north o£ Ba11:Road•`had'more.than 5000-square foot 1ots;
furthermore,.even though a lot might be 7200 square feet, this did not mean it would
be a desirable home - that an undesirable home could be erected.
Reverend Ashie again appeared before the Commission and noted that the R-1 tract
immediately adjacent to the park was now having a difficult time selling these homes;
that there were 250 homes in the combination of Buccola and Showcase homes, with only
one entrance and.exit; that he was not desirous of seeing homes along the east side
of Rio Vista Street which were less than the 7~00 square feet required of the R-1
homes on the west side of Rio Vista Street; and that no R-2-5000 homes have been
develo~ed in this area, and if smaller lots were approved, this would establish an
undesirable change in the area. Furthermore, i£ R-2 homes were proposed on 5000-square
foot lots, how did they expect to sell them if R-1 homes were not sold at the same price.

RECLASSIFICATION• - Fifteen persons indicated their presence in the Council Chamber
N0. 67-68-98 in opposition to sub~ect petitions.
VARIANCE N0. 1989
TENTATIVE .N1AP OF TE~ ;HEARIN,i WAS CIASED. '
TRACT N0..6647;
REVISION N0: 1 The Commission noted that the City Council had already established
(Continued) the pattern for the area by denying the request for the Henning
property southerly of subject property, artd this action would
pre-empt anything the Com~~ission would be proposing.
Mr. Mickelson noted that the City Council still had the General Plan amendment to
consider.
T,he..~.ommission noted that the General Plan amendment was very general, b~'G when a plan
was presented to the Council with people to people and parcel to parcel, it took on a
different set of values, and one point that should bz corrected is that the Commission
had authored the R-2-5000 Zone, and at the time the Commission reviewed this zone, they
emphasized the fact that the first point was to determine whether the area was suitable
for the proposed uses that the proparty had been determined to be suitable for the,R-3,
Multiple-Family, Zone, and the reason the zone was developed was to reduce the density
of the R-3 and not reduce the size of the R-1 lot. Furthermore, the reason the Commis-
sion had proposed the ~tep-down zoning adjacent to the shopping center was because this
would act as a buffer between the commercial uses and the single-family uses - however,
the variance request proposed would make the R-2-5000 development undesirable, and the
Commission should not consider entertaining any reduction in the lot coverage by releas-
ing control to the designer; that the designer would have an opportunity to build a
better product, but should develop within the confines of the site development standards
of the R-2-5000 Zone; and that in order to permit single-family homes on 5000=square
foot lots, the site development standards would have to be adhered to as to coverage
in order to provide for the open space needed for play arQa, and it was incumbent on
the designer:to fit the home on the property, thus preserving the value of the General
Plan.
I'he Commission further noted that it might be desirable for the Planning Commission and
' City Council to meet to determine the pattern of development for the entire area; that
executive type homes were necessary in the City; and that if the City~'.decided the area
should be retained for single-family homes on 7200-square foot lots, rather than apart-
ments, R-2-5000, or mobile homes; this would establish the criteria for the area and
reduce the number of ap~lications to be considered by the Planning Commission and City
Council.
Commissioner Herbst was of the opinion that every property owner had a right to zsk
for whatever he was desirous of having, and the Commission would have to listen to
all requests.
Commissioner Rowland offered Resolution No. PC68-176 and moved for its passage and
adoption, seconded by Commissioner Herbst, to recommend to the City Council that
Petition for.Reclassification No. 67-68-98 be disapproved on the basis that the R-2-5000
Zone was designed to provide an alternate means of developing property zoned or found
suitable on the General Plan for multiple-family development ar,d was not intended to
replace the existing R-1, 7200-square foot lot; that land uses to the east and north
had been developed for R-1, 7200-square foot lots, and subjeci property has no peculiar
site problems that should warrant consideration of less than the required density as
depicted on the Geraeral Plan. (See Resolution Book) _

CONDITZONAL.USE - PUBLIC HEARING. VOGE, INCORPORATED, 7601 Crenshaw Boulevard,
PERMIT N0. 1034 Los Angeles, California, Owner; ROBERT W. ORR, 336 North Central,
Glendale, California, Agent; requesting permission to HAVE ON-SALE
BEER AND WINE IN CO.NJUNCTION WITH AN EXISTING RESTAURANT on ~roperty
described.as: A rectangularly shaped parcel of land located at the southwest corner of
South Street and State Col~ege Boulevard and havin~q frontages of approximately 200 feet
on the south side of South Street and approximately 170 feet on the west side of State
College Boulevard, and further described as 801 South State,College Boulevard. Property
presently classified G1, GENERAL CONWIERCIAL, ZANE. '
4-~ ~"`~ Assistant Planner Pat Brown reviewed the location of sub~ect property, the existing uses
~_:~::~ ; in close proximity, and previous zoning action, noting that the petitioner was again
~ , ::, : ;;; :;
~'; requesting on-sale beer and wine although the City Council had previously deni~ed their
request for on-sale beer and wine, and that the petitioner stated the circumstances had
,,,'_':-' changed since the church and school no longer occupied the property to the west, and
_'' they had negotiated for the purchase of the property, with final papers being signed
~. within a few days.
F:'`
_~:; Mr. Browr. noted that the Commission would have to decide whether on-sale beer and wine
`,^•-, was appropriate for subject property when the City Council had denied a similar petition
seven months ago.
~ ~ Mr. Robert Orr, agent for the petitioner and repxesenting the owner of subject property,
~'"::;:~~: the restaurant oparator, and the new ownex.of the property formerly known as the church
4, property adjacent to subject property, appeared befor~ the Commission and stated that
`'~' `~ the church was now located in a new facili~t and was seilin the
y g present facility to the
* t~' restaurant operator, and a letter was to b~e presented to the City advising them of the
~;?,:.:F~~ fact that the church was vacatin and had sold the ro ert ad acent to sub ect y.
~;:::.,-;,,,:a 9 P P Y J J propert
Mr. Orr then noted that when the p evious petition had been denied by the City Council,
it was based on the fact that the ~hurch and school were locat~d too close to permit
on-sale beer and wine; however, at the time they were not familiar enough with the
requirements-of patrons and had agreed not to have on-sale beer and wine. Since that
time, however, they had opened their Costa Mesa facility and it was determined that
•with the type':of. food they served,,many requests were made by adults for beer and wine,
but they were,primarily a.family-t~ype restaurant,,and the sale of beer and wine would
only be with.the.serving of food. ~
Mr. Milton Fidellaes, General Manager of Amigos Restaurants, appeared before the Commis-
sion, noting the restaurant would be,a franchise operation, and then•reviewed the type
of facility they propoeed, indicating this would be a family-type restaurant engaged
primarily in the nale of food; that approximately 12R~ of the business would be the sale
of beer and wine, this being noted from experience gleaned from their new c,~zration in
Costa Mesa; that the reason they presented their request again to the City was because
of the comment made by a member of the City Council - that the church and school were
the only reason the beer and wine requ~st was denied, and since this facility was not
in existence, it was felt approval would be made.
Mr. Fiosllaes, in response to Com~ission questioning regarding the statement made that
they could operate the•restaurant without the on-sale beer and wine,_stated that since
the Commission had approved the previous petition;.and because of their previous in-
experience regard~ng these matters in the new operation, the statement that they could
operate successfully without the sale of beer and wine was made; however, they had a
one-quarter million dollar operation, and it was determined they could best serve their
custtomers if sub~ect petition were approved. Furthermore, there would be no intent to
later request on-sale liquor since no bar was incorporated in the plans, and it was not
their intent to sell liquor.
Mrs. Ann Madison, realtor, appeared before the Commission and stated that she wished to
conf3rm the sale of the chuach'property to the operator of the proposed restaurant, and
the sale would.be consummated some time durin9 the week of June 17, and that the church
would vacate the property as soon as the escrow was closed.
Mrs. Robert Mathison, 1915 East South Street, appeared before the Commission and inquired
what assurance would the residents of the erea have that beer and wine would not be

~ feet, the westerly boundary of said parcel being approximately 580 feet east of the

., ,;; 20NE. ~ ~ ~
Assistant Planner Pat Brown reviewed the location of subject property, the uses estab-
lished in close proximity, previous zoning action, and the Report to the Commission,
noting that subject property was a portian of a larger, 8.3-acre parcel approved for
G1 zoning by_the City Council in March, 1965; that although the property had been
zoned for commercial use for approximately three years, there had been no development
on this par,ticular portion of the property to date; that the plans submitted by the
petitioner indicated the preposal to establish a Firestone tire, battery, and auto
accessory store on subject property - heWever, the Anaheim Munici~al Code permitted
such uses in the G2 Zone; and, furthermore, the uses already established, such as
the Lin-Brook hardware facility and the Standard Brands paint store were indicative
of the types of .uses that would be proposed for this area,•and the us4 of'subject'property
would seem'to.be appropriate'for that proposi!d.
Mr. David Todd,-representing the Firestone ?:lre and Rubber Company, appeared before the
Commission, noting that most of their operatjons were in the C-1 Zone, and the type of
work performed.was no different from that perGaitted by service stations; that adjoinin9
. properties did not seem to have the landscapinct as was required of subjact petition;
that most tenants asked them to cement the enti,re area rather than having planted areas
which were catch-alls for papers and debris, anc they were more intent on having a clean
operation.
The Commission advised Mr. Todd that the G1 uses established in close proximity had
been established prior to the adoption of the site dev~lopment standards of the C-1 Zone.

HEIGHT AND (2) MINIMUM PERMI?TED SIZE OF COVERED PARKING SPACES,
TO PERMIT THE ~NSTRUCTION OF A Z'WO-STORY,IWO-UNIT APARTMENI'BUILDING on property
described as: A rectangularly shaped parcel of land having a frontage of ap,p~oximately
49 feet on the west side of Lemon Str.eet and a maximum depth cf approximately Y5t3 f~et,
the northerly boundary of said parcel being approximately 365 feet south of the cer,ter-
line of North Street, and further described as 731 and 733 North Lemon Street. Property
presently classified R-3, MULTIPLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIpL, ZONE.
Assistant Planner Pat Brown reviewed the location of subject property, the uses estab-
lished in close proximity, and the proposed development of a two-story, two-unit
apartment building on subject property, emphasizing the fact that a combination of
single-family and multiple-family dwelling units existed to the north and east, and
single-family reside~~ces to the south and west, and that the petitioner was proposing
to develop the two-unit apartment building approximately 22 feet from tha R-1 Zone
boundary line to the west. Furthermore, the waiver of the minimum size of covered
' parking spaces was'necessitated by the fact that subject property was only 48.5 feet
i in width, and in order for the petitioner to provide the required five parking spaces,
it was necessary to reduce~the width of each parking space by approximately 3 inches.
Mr. William Roeschlaub, the petitioner, appeared before the Commission and noted that
no precedent.would be established by approving'the proposed request since two-story
development already existed within 1 00 feet of subject property, and similar two-story
-apartment buildings existed in the same block. Furthermore, only bedrooms would be
facing the alley to the rear, overlooking the single-family homes on'the west side of
the alley.
No one appeared in opposition to subject petit3on.

YARD AND BUZLDIN3 SETBACK TO PERMIT AN ADDITION TO AN EXISTING
SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENCE on property described as: A rectangularly shaped parcel of
land having a fronta9e of approximately 60 feet on the north side of Chateau Avenue
and a maximum depth of approximately 103 feet, the easterly boundary of said parcel
being approximately 155 feet west of the centerline of Gilbuck Drive, and further
described as..1527 Chateau Avenue. Property presently classified R-1, ONE-FAMILY, ZONE.
Assistant Planner Pat Brown reviewed the location of subject property, the existing '
zoning, and uses established in close proximity, noting that the requested waivers ~
were to construct a 605-square foot room addition to the existing residence and 522 !
square feet of the proposed addition would infringe into the required rear yard to i
within 6 feet of the rear property line, and due to the size of the lot and the arrange-
ment of the existing structure, the petitioner was unable to provide additional open
space equal to the area of the proposed addition elsewhere on the lot. Therefore, the
Commission_would have to detes:nine whether there was a hardship in existence that would
justify approval of the variance request. ~
Mr. Milton Wintrob, the petitioner, appeared before the Commission, noting that since ,
they had purchased the home they have a larger family, and they liked the area and ~
schools and their friends - therefore they felt the addition to the property would
improve it, and after having talked with neighbors, they expressed ~o oppo,sition;
furthermore,.a precedent had been set at 1580 Cheteau Avenue where a simil'ar project ~
had been approved.

approximately 325 feet south of the centerline of Romneya Drive, and further described
as 1167 Cherry Way. Property presently classified R-1, ONE-FAMILY RESIDENI'IAL, ZONE.
Assistant Planner Pat Brown reviewed the location of subject property and the existing s
zoning, noting that the requested waivers were necessary for a lot split, and they
were unable to subdivide #he'property in accordance with the R-1 Zone requirements
because of the location of the existing residence on the northerly portion of the lot.
Furthermore,.waivers have been granted for single-family residential uses of lots of
less than 70 feet ofi frontage and 7200 square feet, and the proposed subdivision would
seem to be.a..logical continuation of this development for single-family residential
uses as depicted on the General Plan.
Mr. A1vin Nellesen, the petitioner, appeared before the Commission, noting that they '
have had a difficult time with maintenance of the large parcel of land, and, therefore, !i
have decided to subdivide the property.

RECLASSIFICq~ION - PUBLIC HEARING. INITIATED BY THE CITY PLANNING.ODAMGISSION, 204 East
N0. 67-68-99 _ Lincoln Avenue, Anaheim, Celifornia; proposing that property
described as: Seven lots fronting on the west side of Euclid Street
AREA DEVEIAPMENf between Broadway and Orange Avenue, the northerly boundary of said
PLAN N0. 95 lots being approximately 320~feet south of the centerline of Broadway
and the southerly boundary being approximately 210 feet north of the
centerline of Orange Avenue, be reclassified from the-R-1, ONE-FAMILY
RESIDENTIAL, AND.THE R-A, AGRICULTURAL, ZONES to the C-1, GENERAL COMMERCIAL, ZONE.
Area Development Plan No. 95 encompasses property on the west side of Euclid Street and
proposes the recommended secondary circulation for these lots in the event the proper-
ties are reclassified.
The Commission Secretary advised the Chairman that a letter had been received requesting
that subject.petition and area development plan be continued to be heard at the evening
session so that more oppositi~n could be present.
I` ~' Chairman pro tem Allred asked for a showing of hands of those present to hear subject
I` petitions and to present a~guments in favor or in o
~' indicated 15. ersons pposition. A showing of hands
~._ p present. The Chairman then indicated that the Commission would '
consider the evidence since a sizable showing was present. '
Assistant Planner Pat Brown reviewed the location of subject property and the uses
"-,,~` established in close proximity, noting that it was as a result of the City Council's i
~• adoption of "A Study of the Problem of Residential Homes Fronting on Arterial Highways"
^~ ,- ;~ that Area Development Plan No. 95,was , p 9
prepared de ictin alternative methods of provid- {
~~ :~; ing secondary circulation.
Mr. Brown then reviewed ~he area development plan, noting that there were seven parcels,
five of which.were low--'=nsity, single-family residential homesites; that the sixth
parcel was.a large pr,r:.r~ on which two single-family homes were located; and that the
southernmost parcel h::d a single-family homesite and a parking lot used by an adjacent
commercial use. Fu.rthermore, that the lend uses to the north were retail'.bommercial;
to the east retail commercial, commercial-professional~a:.+sia low-density, single-family
' residentiaL structure on land planned for commercial use; to the south commercial-
professional..and retail commercial~ and to the west low-density, single-family residen-
tial homes. -
Mr. Brown noted that the traffic count for Euclid Street, a primary highway, was
presently 32,000 vehicles per day and was projected to carry 40,000 vehicles per day
within ten years~~that the properties had curbs,_gutters, and sidewalks, and a half-
width dedication of 50 feet for Euclid Street, while 53 feet were required for a.primary
street; that the minimum depth of any of the lots after ultimate dedication would be
97 feet~ and that the maximum front yard depth of the lots would be approximately 17
feet. Furthermore, because of these setbacks, rear parking could not be develoged on
the northerly fi;ve parcels without removing.the existing structures since rear yard
depths averaged only 20 feet, the width of an alley~ however, the three structures on the
.two southernmost parcels could be retained for office or professional use conversion
since lot areas were large enough to accommodate parking toward the rear of the lot
and the side of the structure - in any event, the structures would have to conform to
all of the pertinent building:and zoning provisions of the Code.
Mr. Brown, in conclusion, stated that after reviewi~g.,the above factors during the
deliberations on the Front-0n Study, the Planning Commicsion fe1L these properties
did have a potential fox cortuaercial or commercial-professional use~ that reta~.l ansl
service commercial uses would probably be preferable in this area since by right they
permit office and professional uses; and that subject properties were presently adjacent
at either extremity to developpd retail and service commercial and office and professional
uses.
Mr. Pau1 Lindstrom, owner of psoperty at 401 South Euclid Street, appeared before the
Commission, noting that after having talked with the Development Services staff, he
was not sure whether he was for or against subject petitions~ however, there were a
number of questions he was desirous of having answered: Who would bear .the cost of
relocation of the curbs and gutters and street widening?
Office Engineer Arthur Daw replied that since the curbsand gutters and sidewalks were
in, the cost of replacing them would be borne by the City.
Mr. Lindstrom then inquired what was meant by "tentative C-]" - h~w would this affect
tax appraisals and how would it affect real estate appraisals? ~

fication, and;ar far as'he knew;r`alative to tax apptaicals, the
change in'.rate.would not occur u~ntil.after the'property was
utilized for commercial p.urposes.
Mr. Lindstrom then noted that tax appraisers were not concerned whether or not property
had been mezoned, but what the market value of the'land was, and if this:were considered
to',have commercial potential~ then the tax would be proportionate.
Mr. Lindstrom then inquired whether or not the action taken by the Commission today
would be proposing a master land use for those parcels fronting along Euclid Street. .
Commissioner Rowland returned to the Council Chamber at 3:58 P.M.
Mr. Brown-noted.that the reclas~ification petition was tentative and for potential ,~,,
use of the property~ however, any action taken by the Commission was only a recommenda-
tion to the City Council, and a resolution of intent wouTd have to be approved by them -
prior to any further action being taken on the property. Furthermore, subject proper- ',•~
ties were still R-1 2nd R-A until they were developed after meeting the conditions of
the resolution of intent, and an ordinance would not be read until all these conditions ~'

aware of the...fact that a 2:1 setback would be required. Furthermoxe, he was cor.carned
about the requirement of an alley and what setbacks and parking would be requ~__d. ,~

the proposed.,accessways were oniy tentative foi aligrment and could be shifted; however,

'.
approval could be given for a 10-foot drive having access to Euclid Street-until such ~'~''
time as the entire neighborhood developed and the alley was constructed. i
I ; `
The Commission noted that land ~esembly was desirable - however, this had not been too ~ ;,!
successful but still a desirable aspect for developing these lots fronting along Euclid .
Street. . i
Mr. Lindetrom then indicated he was in favor of the proposed reclassification. ~, ;
i;~
.
Mrs. Virginia Edwards, 424 South Fa'lcon Street, appeared before the Commission in
'!~
opposition,.and inquired where would tfie pioperty come from to supply this alley; ;,~~
whereupon Mr. Brown replied that the entire width of the alley would have to be ;~~`

Mr. Brown replied that one:~af the conditions of the rite development standards>of the
'
C-1 Zone required a si~~foet:n~aeonay::rall between commercial and residential uses. ~' s
~
Mrs: Robert Briggs, 505 South Falcon Street, appeared before the Commission, noting ',~'
that although she was not abutting.subject properties, she still was concerned'that ~~
" `
in the future commercial lots would require additional parkin9i and,then.the single- i
''.r;
family homes on the east side of Falcon Street would be converted to commercial ' ~°
purposes,:and she was not desiroue of having to face commercial even though it would
t ,: ~';
be across the street from heri that the entire neighborhood was a very quiet neigh-
borhood and should not have any traffic but the local traf£ix of the neighborhood. ~
The Commission advised Mrs. Briggs that any property owner' had a right to ask for
rezoning of his property, but ttihls did not necessarily mean it was granted, and there '
seemed to be no problem relative to this at the prerent time since the Commission

RECLF.SSIFICATION - would require adequate parking for commercial uses of subject
N0.'67-68-99 property. Furthermore, the extent of commercial uses throughout
AREA DEVEIAPMENT the City was considerable, and it was hardly likely that this resi-
PLAN N0. 95 dential area would be converted unless all lots were developed
(Continued) for commercial purposes.
Mr. Brown noted that any commercial dev=lopment of the property
must provide adequate parking, and where adequate parking could not be ~rovided, then
land assembly would be required of two or more parcels; however, v nder the present
Code requirements; there would be no need to require additional parking by encroaching
into the residential area along Falcon Street.
Mrs. Behnke then noted that she could not understand any reason for converting these
homes for commercial purposes since the professional buildings on the east side of
Euclid Street had many vacancies during all the time the building was erected, and
there was no reason for having ali these empty buildings on Euclid Street since they
were undesirable and detracted from the residential uses.
Mr. Lindstrom noted that he had purchased his property six years ago with the intent
of developing it for a dental office, and that the vacarcy factor of any professional
buildin9 should not be the concern of single-family homeowners because this was part
of the normal occurrence-for commercial buildings to have a certain amount of vacancies.
THE HEARIAt3 WAS CLOSED.
~ Commissioner Gauer noted that since a good representation was present to hear all the
i evidence, there seemed to be no reason for continuing subject petition for an evening
meeting, and that the Commission was only recommending action on this petition, and
if the persons 3n opposition still desired an evening meeting, they could address a
letter to the City Clerk, requesting consideration of an evening meeting.
Commissioner Gauer offere~ Resolution No. PC68-184 and moved for its passage and
adoption, seconded by Commissioner Mungall, to recommend to the City Council that
Petition for Reclassification No. 67-68-99 be approved, subject to conditions, with
an added condition that ordinances might be read on individual parcels as they develop
for commercial uses. (See Resolution Book)

RECLASSIFICATION - PUBLIC HEARING. TNITIATED BY THE CITY PLANNING COMMISSION,
N0. 67-68-100 204 East Lincoln Avenue, Anaheim, California; proposing that
property described as: All those lots fronting on the north and
south sides of Lincoln Avenue between Vine Street and Rose Street,
described as follows: Block 1- Those lots located at the northwest corner of Lincoln
Avenue and..Vine Street, having a frontage of approximately 230 feet on the north side
of Lincoln.Avenue and a maximum depth of approximately 132 feet; Block 2- All those

fied from the R=3, MULTIPLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL, C-1, GENERAL OOMMERCIAL, AND C-3, HEAVY
COMMERCIAL, ZONES to the C-1, GENERAL COMMERCIAL, ZONE.
~"- = Assistant,Planner Pat Brown reviewed the location of subject property, previous zoning
t actions, and.the existing zoning action, as well as the uses established on the property,
'"; noting tha~the parcels were a portion of those deemed appropriate for commercial uses
~~ in "A Study.of the Problem of Residential Homes Fronting on Arterial Highways" adopted
- by the Planning Commission and City Council in an attempt to resolve certain problems
relative to ~the commercial conversion of these homes, and that all but one lot were

"'3 of one of the parcels under consideration and inquired whether or not the G1 Zone set-
~ fz~„~ back of 10 feet would be permitted on these properties.
`~ Associate Planner Charles Roberts then stated that the 10-foot setback could be permitted

STREET NAME CHANuE - PUBLIC HEARING. INITIATED BY THE CITY PLANNING ~MMISSION,
204 East Lincoln Avenue; to consider str.eet name changes for
.cul-de-sac portions of Miraloma Avenue and Sunkist Street and
the new alignment of Sunkist Street and Miraloma Avenue across
the Riverside Freeway within the jursidction of the City of
_ Anaheim. .
Assistant Planner Pat Brown reviewed for the Commission the Report to the Commission,
noting that the Sunkist-Miraloma overcrossing of the Riverside Freeway had been
completed; however, no street names had technically been assigned to that portion
of the street which constituted the overcrossing, and it would seem logical that the
new portion of.the street south of the Riverside Freeway be named "Sunkist Street",
and the new portion of'the street north of the Riverside Freeway be named "Miraloma
Avenue". Also., there remained the cul-de-sac portions of the original alignment of
Sunkist and Miraloma Avenue which created some confusion because of the dual assignment
of names. Therefore, the staff recommended that portion of Miraloma Avenue which is
cul-de-saced at the Riverside Freeway be renamed "Miraloma Way", and the existing
Sunkist Street north of the recentl com leted ~
y p portion extending northerly from Romneya
Drive be renamed "Sunkist Way".

STREET NAME DHAI~E - The Commission secretary advised the Planning Commission that a 3
(Continued). letter had been received from the Division Manager of the Beverly '~~"
Hills Transfer 8 Storage C,ompany, owners of a portion of property
on the cul-de-sac portion proposed for renaming ta Miraloma Way, ;
onposing any street name change since it would be inconvenient and costly at the
present time_to change all of their printing and advertising material. •
Mr. Ernest Heal, representing the Beverly Hills Transfer 8 Storage Company, appeared ~~
before the Commission and noted that a letter submitted to the Commission reiterated ;~
the opposition by the company and requested consideration that the name be retained;
furthermore, he Y:ad received a call from Mr. William J., Hurke of W. J. Burke Construction
Company, Inc., requesting that he also express their opposition to the proposed name
change. ~
The Commission noted they recognized there were difficulties in a street name change -
however, it was obvious that the ma,jor traffic pattern should require the name changes
be retained for those portions, and the only thing that could be done relative to street
name changes would be requiring dual posting of street names for a period of two years
so that any property owners adjacent to the cul-de-sac street might project their future
advertising and stationery purchase to reflect the new name change.
The Commission then inquired whether or not a time limitation of one year for a complete
conversion to the name change would be adequate; whereupon Mr. Heal indicated this would j
be sufficient for them.
Office Engineer Arthur Daw advised the Commission that most streets were dual named for
only one year, except for major streets such as Anaheim Boulevard, which streets were
dual posted for two years.
Commissioner Rowland offered Resolution No. PC68-194 and moved for its passa9e and
adoption, seconded by Commissioner Gauer, to recommend to the City Council that street
name changes be made as follows: That portion of old Miraloma Avenue which is cul-de-
saced at the Riverside Freeway be renamed "Miraloma Way"; the existing Sunkist Street
north of Romneya Drive be renamed "Sunkist Way"; the n?w alignment of Miraloma Avenue
from Blue Gum Street-to the Riverside Freeway be officially named-"Miraloma Avenue";
and that the_alignment of Sunkist Street from La Pa1ma Avenue to the Riverside Freeway
be officially named "Sunkist Street". (See Resolution Book)

RECOMMENDATIONS CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT N0. 1032 (Reverend H. A. McPheeters;
Christ Church Truth of Orange County) - Request for amendment
to conditions - Property located at 1648 West Broadway.
Associatt Planner Charles Roberts presented to the Commission a request from the agent
for the petitioner for an amendment to Condition No. 9 of Resolution No. PC68-155
approving Conditional Use Permit No. 1032, dated June 3, 1968, in which the Commission
required relocation of the parking to the easterly property line. The request noted
that there was a 10-foot private easement running along the easterly property line
for the full depth of the parcel, and if the parking spaces were redesigned as suggested
by the Planning Commission, the stalls would be located directly over the easement and
would prohibit the utilization of the easement for its intended purpose. Therefore,
the agent for the petitioner had requested that parking be in accordance with the plans
as originally presented; however, the agent stipulated that the owner of subject
property would erect a barrier of sufficient size and strength along the easterly
boundary of subject property to prevent cars from backing into the garage wall of
the ad~oining propertye
Mr. Roberts further noted that he had attempted to contact the property owner of the
apartments to the east; however, he had been unable to do so since the property owner
to the east was the mafn ob3ector to approval of the plans as originally presented.
The Commission inquired whether or not parking was permitted~on an easement; whereupon
Office Engineer Arthur Daw advised the Commission that if the easement were for public
utilities or a sewer easement, parking was permitted, but this could be a private
easement to permit ingress and egress to the property immediately adjacent to the
south of sub;ject property.

Request for deletion of conditions.
Associate Planner Charles Roberts reviewed for the Commission previous action taken
by both the Planning Commission and City Council relative to subject petition and
the fact that the petitioner had asked on February 3, 1968, that the variance be
terminated because of the cost involved in meeting the conditions of approval, and
that on March 5, 1968, when the Clty Council reviewed the Commission's action
terminating all p*oceedings, and upon report and recommendation from the City Manager,
the City Council referred subject petition back to the Planning Commission for further
consideration since it was their feeling that the imposition of such fees for a request
of this nature was excessive, and that the staff recommended Variance No. 1898 be
reactivated and Condition Nos. 2 and 3 of Resolution No. PC67-162 be deleted.
Commissioner Gauer offered Resolution No. PC68-188 and moved for,its passage and

west of the centerline of Knott Avenue.
Associate Planner Charles Roberts presented Orange County Use Permit Noe 3015 to the
Planning Commission, noting the location of avbject property, the proposed use, uses
established in close proximity, and emphasized the fact that a convalescent hospital
was located approximately 70 feet to the south which could be affected by the inherent
noise•prob2em associated with a carwash with its vacuum stands, gasoline pumps, and
blowers.
Discussion was held by the Commission as to the possibility of the property and the
convalescent hospital eventually becoming a part of the City of Anaheim; whereupon
the staff advised the Commission that the annexation had been ooposed by the City of
Buena Park, and it seemed unlikely that it would be a part of the City of Anaheime
The Commission also noted that a carwash in close proximity to a convalescent hospital
was an incompatible use because of the noise problem inherent with operations of this
type.
Commissioner Herbst offered a motion to recommend to the City Council that the Orange
County Planning Commission be urged to deny Orange County Use Permit No. 3015 for the
establishment of a carwash with gasoline pumps to serve gasoline, due to the fact
that the noise problem inheient with operations of this type wbuld heve a deleterious effect
