ing o£ two recorded lots and a portion of a third lot, having a combined frontage of
approximately 296 Peet on the weat aide of Webater Avenue and a maximum depth of approxi-
ma.tely 298 £eet, the northerly boundary of said parcel being approximately 500 feet south
o£ the centerline of Orange Avenue, and further deacribed as 639-659 Webeter Avenue.
Property preaently classified N-A, AGRICITLTURAL, ZONE.
Sub3ect petition was continued from the meetinga of October 7 and 2~, 1968, to allow the
petitioner time to sub~i.t revised plans indicating adequate vehicular acceas £or City
service vehiclea.
Aaeiatant Zotting Supervisor Pat Brown reviewed the location oP aubject property and the
uaea eatabliahed in cloae proxtmity, noting that the property had a resolution of intent
to R.-3, and•the petitioner was aeking waivera Por minimum dietance of living unita from
a standasd atreat, minimnm ~open yard' ati~uctitral aetback, and adequate vehicular
acceae for City aervice vehiclea; that the original plana had ittdicated 70 units - however,
, the revised plana had been reduced to 60, with two-deck parking propose3 in the front area
' and an emergency vehicular drive approximately 18 feet in width, terminating at a cul-de-
sac,wae now propoaed; that at the Interdepar~tmettta]. Committee meeting the ai;atement had
been made that the reviaed plana were a vaet.improvement, but the Aaeistant Fire Chief
was af the opinion that there was atill inadequate protection for the rear apartmenta
and suggeated tktat either a periphery drive or a center cul-de-sac be required to gain
acceas to theae rear units.
Mr. R. D. Milea, agent £or the petitioner, appeared before the Commiesion and noted that
when Variance No. 1987 wae conaidered before the Planning Comm3.esion, the Interdepartmental
Coa~ittee had made no reference to a periph.eral drive for a similar lot as sub~ect property;
that the petitioner then propoaed,aubterrattean parking, and the Fire Chief felt that there
was an accesa that pulled straight through the lower drive, which would be adequate for
fire protection purpoeea; tha.t in hie proposal there wae a cul-de-sac toward the rear unita
with an 18-foot emergeneq drive, and theze was no reason to•have any other type of acceea

VARiANCE N0. 2020 - because the cul-:de-sac would be adequate for turning around; that
Continued' he had preaented the plans to Chi.ef Springer and had received hia
approval, and Aseietant Fire Chief Heying had also indicated a
aimilar development had aleo been approved; that the propoaed devel-
opment provided adequate acceaeibility for vehiclea~ and the concept of a periphery
drive with subterranean paxking would create a hardahip in building deaign; and t;iat the
original plana had indicated a 16-foot drive which he tll{~ught had been aoneidered adequate
eince no mention had been made previously - however, the reviaed plana now indicated an
18-foot drine to the cul-de-sac.
No one appeared in opposition to subject petition at thie hearing.
THE HEARING WAS CIASED.
The Commisaion reviewed the reviaed plana ea presented and inquired whether or not t~e
waiver of adequate vehicular acceee for City vehicles wae now being obviated becauae o£
the.t~eviaed plans; whereupon Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompaon adviaed the Co~i.eaion
that in the opinion of the•Asaiatant Fire Chief, the new plan did not meet the regui.re-
meat, and, therefore, thia waiver wae etill being requeeted.
The Commiasion further ttoted that the waiver for the minimwn open yard atructural
aetback was cottaidered inconsequential; however, the maxSmum dietance of a living uttit
from a etandard atreet and adequate vehicular acceea for City aervice vehiclee were one
and the same; that in most variancea there was no real hardahip demonatrated wh3.ch cou~.d
not be redeaigned and provided for within the shape of the property; that the require-
ment of a maximum oF 200 feet from a dedicated street could havs aome flexibility -
however, the propoaed development rrea 25~ over that permitted; that the Coa~isaion might
wieh to entertain the idea of two tranel lanea being provided to the cul-de-sac, no
parking being permitted on the two travel lattes - thereby eolvi.ng the problem as to the
adequacy for fire, trash and other public vehiclea to have acceea to the rear of the
property, attd this, then, would keep faith with mar~y of the developere who had been
required by the Planning Commiaeion to generally conform to the requiremettta uP peri-
pheral drivea or cul-de-sac etreets.
Commieeioner Rowland noted that if these conditione were met, he would £avorably cottaider
the proposed petitiott.
Mr. Thompeon noted that the petitioner had referred to the apartment complex to the eouth,
on the west aide of Webster Avenue, which had beett denied by the Plana'ng Commiasion snd
approved by the City Council; that the reclasaification petition on the T:abater A-renue
properties apecified the maximum of 18 dwelling unite per net residential acre o_ ~u~ld-
ing aite, and aince aome type of a precedent had been aet by approval o£ a heavier denaity
by the City Council, the Commisaiott might wiah to reco~end to the City Council that the
reeolution of intent be amended to permit fliture development with a density no•.; being
considered and previously approved.
Aeaiatant City Attorney John Daweon adviaed the Commiasion that they could require the
two travel lanes; however, the police could not control parking on private acceseways.
Commiaeioner Rowland then noted that if this cou].d not be enforced as to maintaining the
travel lanes without parking, aubject petition ahould be denied.
Mr. Thompeon noted that aeveral R-3 developmente had been approved wherein etreete had
been developed; however, they wera not dedicated, and the police could not enforce any
regulations on private streets.
Co~iaeioner Camp then inquired of Mr. Dawsott whether or not making this a requir~ent
o£ the variance it could ttot be en£orced by the Zoning Enforcement OfPicer.
Mr. Dawsott noted that he did not ;mow of any method by which thie could be enforced by
the Zoning Enforcement OfPicer since City aervicea could not be deprived; that from a
practical standpoint, it could work out, but the police could not enforee this, and it
would be primarily a~ob for the 7oning Ettforcement 0£Ficer.
Mr• Camp then noted for comparison - if an apartment development had a variance for a
certain type of traeh storage asea which wae conatructed and later e~iminated, would
the trash be collected; whereupon Mr. Dawaon stat9d that the trash people would not
collect the traeh unleae~ the development met the requirementa - therefore, iP the Commis-
aion atill coneidered requiring no parking in the emergency drive, the Zoning Ebforcement
Of£icer would have to be respotteible for this.
Mr. Thompeon, in reaponse to Commt.ssion queationing relative to whether or not conditione
of approval could be enforced by the Zotting Eli£orcement Officer on private streets and
acceaeways, etated the only method o~ posaible enforcement would be contacting the manager

Cal Qiieyrsl, engineer of the p:•opoaed trac~, appea,red before the Commj,PSion and noted
that subj9et tract had been.coneidered by the Commi.saion at the time they had recommended

public herring had indicated they did not wieh to proceed with R-2-5000, but rrould grant

Mr. Ted Gilbert, 5461 Garrick Drive, appeared before the Commieeion in opposition, noting
hie property was immediately acl,jacent to eub~ect prcperi~; that he had appeared at both
previous Commioeion and City Council meeting~ when th~ reclaseifica~iott wae conaidered on
aub~ect property, with the Coarmisaion recammending denial for the Rr2-g000 and recommend-
ing,R-1; that the City Couttcil at their pub'!ic hearing had inaieted that plane ehould be
more epeciFic for thie property, with the minimum equare footage of homea~ tqpe of roof
and pr~.ce range included in'the varianae petition; t5uthermore, if thie new road extending
eoutherly from old Santa dna Canyon Road were not conebructed at the time the eubdivieion
wae developed on sub~ect property, thia would add an additional minimum 52 oare to Maude

' to.the'type.of homea planned for this=tract abutting their property
VARIANCE N0. 2027 eince~-their`homee were valued at over:`~35,000 each.
TENTATIVE MAP OF Chairman Allred adviaed Mr. Gilbert that the Commisaion could only

Mr. Gilbert then noted that if the single-family 2iomeowne~s:to.the weat did not accept
R-2-5000• and the Rrl with the variance, they had been informed that R-3 could be con-
eidered; therefore, this was something like the old °ahell.=game°.
Mr. Queyrel advised the Commisaion that the deaignefor the~homes had not been ~ompleted
as of this date, and he wae not aure when they would be available.
TFIE HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Commisaioner Rowland indicated he would like to give some assurance to the oppoaition
that becauae of the development coeta on aubject property, which were extr~ely expenaive,
it would be economically unreasonable to assume that aubatanda.rd homea would be developed
because of the high lot coata, and he thought they would be comparable to thoae in the

~; ~'• RoY Knau.ft, 5682 Orchard Drive, appeared before tha Comm.iaeion in opposition and
atated that he reaided immediately to the north, acroas Imperial Highway, £rom eubject
' property, and all properties in this general area to the north had County E4-15,000
zoning, W3,th very expeneive homea ranging in priae to $].00,000; therefore, ar~y tranait:on
~' from this aize lot to a hoavier denaity ahauld include 7200-aquare foot lota,Yjuat as tf~e
i ?i tract to the aouth of the Eeperanza High School aite was developed; that the propoaed

Mr• Kaauft further noted that as a member oF t'.3 board of directors u£ the Placentia

' to increase ~•,~ vacant properties in this area, and that projections for future achools
' had been baaed on aubdiviaion witi~ 7200-equare foot lota or R-1 - this, then, could meaa
w the e~dsting sc!aoola would be inadequate and half-day sesaiona might have to be initiat~d

37 acrea between aub~ect propt~rty and hia prnperty, and perhapa he was referring to the

Ih'• Clif£ord Riddlebarger, SLperintendent oi Schools, Placentia Unified Scbool Matrict,
} appeared before the Commiaeion and noted there were aeveral basia conaiderations the
Co~iaeioa crould have to give if sub~ect pe~~tion were coneidered favorab
a ahanging the zoning from R..1 Lo.R~z_g000 would creata a problem £or the s hool district,
f necesaitating the building of more echoola located closer toge4her; second~y, the school
~„ diatrict nad beett meeting with the Planning sta,ff and the Parks and Reereation Depart~ent
to develap a program for the EspeTanza High School aite £or achool and recreation purposes
z for tha.t area; that the close cooperation of theae two departmenta £or the betterment of
< the community had beett quite rewarding - however, if the tract for R-2-50pp were approved,
~. ` the reviaion as preaented to the Commiaeion would provide a better accesa to both the
~ ; park and high achool aitea. ~rthermore, one problem he would like to bring to the
Oo~isaion~s attention relativa to the map was that aPter meeting with the City regardirig
~ 3 development of the atreet, they had agreed to donelo
~ developer would develop the balance; however, ihe map indi,cata~ therachool would have~to
develop more than 50~ of the etreet, and 3f the developer expects3 the Board of Education
~ to dedicate more than 50~ for atreet purpoaea, this would be almoat an imposaibility, and
, any deliberations the Coartnisaion miglit make oa the propoaed request ahould taka the factora

RECLASSIFICATION •- Mr, paul MacMahon, the petitioner, appeared befors the Commieaion
NO• 6B-69-32 and no$ed tha.t the property was a long, narrow parcel and was not
auitable Por develvpment for R-l; that aince he had owned thia
TaTT:.TIVE MAP OF property, i.t had been cut off by the freeway along the north, the
TRACT N0. 4693~ high achool to the aouth, and in hia eatimation, thie was a hard-
REVISION NO,. 1 ahip ca.se to zoning in the area, while thoae properties weaterly of
Continued Orchard Drive now being deneloped for Rr2-5000 had no aimilar hard_
ehip - therefore, he felt his requeat ahould be given Pavorable
conaideration.
~ HEARING WAS CIASED.
~':'-'?~=~: The Commisaion noted that thoae propert'ea preaently being deneloped £or Rr2-g000 north
~~ of Orangethorpe Avenue,,with tre exceptioa of the Johneoa tract which had developed four
f or five yeara ago, had multiple-family zoning while ati].]. under the juriediction of the
,~~- Couaty, and whea annexed into the City of Anaheim, the aimilar ~~ning was granted, and
' 'then inquired oP the Zoning Snpervieor how much of t8e property had been developed.~or
1;'. R.-1.
Zoning Supervisor Ranald Thompeon noted that two R-1 tracte had been developed - one
being loca.ted west of the new alignment of Orchard Drive, northerly o£ Orangethorpe
AveiruE,- and the other eaeter],q oY Kellogg Street (old Orchard Drive north of Orangethorpe
dvemie~; that the Butler-Harbour property had original~• been approved for Rr3 zoning,
but later came in with a vaMaace and rrae now zoned for R-2-5000, and aince that time,
the Budlong and Rinker properti~e i~ediatoly adjacent to the Butler-Harbour property
also h.qd been zoned for 1~2-5000; however, the General Plan projected the balance of
the propertiea in thie area for R-1.
The Co~aisaion inquired whether or not the G9neral Plan reflected the 378 acres as was
pro~ected in the etudy area: ' •
Mr• Browa adviaed the Commisaion that the Hill anc; Ca~•on General Plan pro3ected the
majority oP theee propertiea for low-deneity reeidential uae.
Coz~iaeioner Gauer was:of the opinion that R-2_SOOO was not appropriate for the area
under consideration aince thia zoning had beett ueed in areas where R-j had been conaidered;
that the cloee pro~dmity o£ achools to aubject property and the R-1 tract aouther~y would
make eubject property a very deairable neighboraood for low-deneity reaidaitial uaea; and
that there were other place9 throughout the City where 5000-aquare foot ?.ats would be more
appropriate.
f' ~hairmen Allred noted that 5000-aquare £oot lots were e~d.ating to the weet of Orchard
Drive, and only one subdivision with lote of 7200•aquare feet had been developed in that
area.
?::~ .
Oo~iaeioner Gauer noted that propertiea in cloee proximity to achoola Wou1d be very
deairable Por lirl ueee; however, ia thie particular area, the number of children from
'= thia development would not have any eigiiificant impact but rrould be eetting a precedent
Yor develop~ent of all the vacant parcela norther],y of Orangethorpe Avenue betveen the
~ Imp~.riel Highway and ite interchange with Santa Ana Ca~.on Road, and if thia precedeat
were aet, thia wou],d hane a aignificant impact on echool facilitiee.
.~ Mr. Tho~mpaon noted that the pro~ectione oP the epecial atuc~q were made on the undeveloped
acreage in th3s area and not oa the dsveloped properties.
~ The Cc~niaeion then inquired how mar~y grammar aehoole were meater planned by the Placeatia
„_ IInified School Diatrict.
Dr. Riddlebarger noted that cne elemeataxy achool e~dated in thie general area end one
xas planaed to be located on the hill, together with a~unior high school and a aenior
high achool - s11 msater p].anned; that the eatire maeter planning f.'or the echc;ol diatrict
xas for 6$,000 etudente, but i£ thie entire area were pro~eeted .''ith hesvier deneity, at
the preeent time he could not indicate a number they would hav~~ to accommodate.
Dr. Riddlebarger flu~ther noted that the master plan pro~ected studenta bsaed on develop-
ment oP the vacant parcele with 7200-equare Poot lota.
Ooa~iaeioner Rowland noted that the prope:iy under coneideration for R-2-g000 wae on~y
1/25 of the etudy area ia atatiatice. which would mean that thie epecific aite would
contribute 23 etudente through a11 ihe gradea over the number of etudente if developed
£or I~l, aad thie wea not aigniYicant; however, it became coneiderably more eigni£iceat
when it was pro~ected for the entire etuc~y area; that a coneiderable portion of the area

Comm3.saioner Farano entered the Council Chamber at 3:55 P.M. ~
Aasiatant Zoning Sitpsr~isor Pat Brown reviewed the location of subj.sct property, t3~e i
previous zoning action on the property, and the propoeal to utilize an e~deting structure
for a bua depot. ,
Mr. Browa f`urther noted that on October 7, 1968, the Commisaion had approv~ed utilization '
of an exiating,yacant bowling a7.].ey on sub~ect property for meetings, lecturea, etc., ~
at which time coneideration had been given to the requir~ent of dedication for atreet
widening purpoaea of Haeter Street; however, the Commiaeion deamed that due to the fact ~
the uee was of a temporary nature and the S•tate Highway Department was conaidering an f
extensive revamping program for thia area ia the future, dedication £or atreet widening
purposee ahould be deferred utttil the temporary nature of the use o£ the property and i
the State Divieion of Iitghway~s revampin~ program h8d baen formalized, at which time i
the City could determine whether or not dedication £or widening of Haeter Street was
neceseary. ?
Mr. Brorrn also noted that under sub~ect petitiott, the propoaed Greyhound Bus Terminal
was indicated by the petitioner ea being a permanent uae o£ the structure on the property
involved; therefore~ the Gommi.seiott would have to determine whether thia new proposal
conaisted of aufficient redevelopment or other dispoaitioa of the property to warrant
requiring dedication of Asater Street ae speci£ied by the City k~gineer, whether the
parking layout wae adequate for the total property, and whether other on-aite and off-
aite improvements normally required by Code ahould be mat at thia time.
Mr. Tom Brietow, the agent £or the petitioner, appeared before the Commi,ssion and noted
that the City of Anaheim had been without a Greyhound Bus Terminal £or the paet aix
monthe aad this had created a hardahip for the people of the City and viaitora to the
City; that the propoaed location of the bua depot was conaidered ideal becauae it was
close to the off-ramp and on-ramp of the freeway; that they preaently planned to have
a echedule with aix buaea utilizittg the facility a day _ three to San Diego and three
to I,oe Angelea, but thia might be picked up ia the fl~ture, and although considerable
diacueaion had been held regarding a tranaportation center in the City of Anaheim, the
propoeal wae a atep toward firming up this transportation center; and that as an example
of the neceasity for a bus depot, there were 531 psaeengers delivered into thia area
for the weekend.
The Commieaion inquired as to the method o£ public transportatioa for bua paesengara;
whereupon Mr. Briatow noted that both the Ysllow Cab and the Jitney Bus would be aervicing
this bus depot.
The Commiesion flarther inquired w8ether or not patrona of the bus facility drove their
cara to the parking area and pat.ged for the day on the property; whereupan Mr, Briatow
atated thie would not happen aince it did not oocur in the operation they had in Santa Ana.
Mr. Clarence McNeea, the petitiotter, appeared beYore the Commisaion and reviewed the length
of time he wae the owner of the property and the trarious methods he had uaed to develop the
property for other uaes; that the previoua petition considered by the Commission in October
propoaed an interim uae for another atructure, at which time the Commisaion had recommended
dedication and atreet impronemente would not be neceasary due to the nature of the use
propoaed, se well ae the pro~ected revamping of the Santa [~na F~.ee~y by the State Highway
Department; and that although the bue depot might be conaidered a more permanent uae, the
dedication and atreat improvement plana for Hsater Street would atill create a hardshi,p
becauae of the fact that the FIighway Department had teatative plans for revampi.ng it, which
might possibly take a ma~ority o~ his property~ thereby reducing hia net return if dedica-
tion were given to the City, and he would not have this additional land to barter with the
State.
Oommisaioaer Rowland then ittquired whether the conditiona attached to Conditional IIae
Permit No. 1063 would suit his purpoaee pertaining to sub~ect petition since no great
concern could be evidenced relative to the drainage problem from aubject property; however,
if future developmant of the property entailed a ma~or conversion, then dedication of

O~Nd)ITIONAL IISE preeence in oppoaition.
PEId~I3T' N0. 06
~Continued Mr. Stuart Noble, 252b Whidby Lane, appeared before the Commisaion
ia oppoeition, to epeak for those who had indicated their presence
in oppoeition and indicated that the requeat for continuance wsa
~oat t.rnfair to the oppoaition who had taken time off f'rom work or had to hire eomeone
'to care Yor the children while they apper~red in oppoeitioa to aub,~ect petition; that
the petitioner had weeks in which to prepare plana Pnr aubject property and legal
aoticea would not have been aent'if a complete petition had been aubmitted; that he
~ did.not like to imply that the petitioner wae attempting delay tactica in order that the
oppoaition would become tired of appearing at public hearinge; that he had had a zonittg
request before the Commiseion and had never aeked for a continuance; and that he
requeated, therefore, that the publia hearing be conaidered by the Planning Commiaeion
at thia time.
Zoning Supertrlsor Ronald Thompeon adviaed the Commiaeion that the petitioner had aub-
mitted the letter requeating continuance on the recommendation of the ata£P at the
time the Interdepartmetttal Committee had met, in order that the "not-a-part~~ parcel
could be coasidered along with sub~ect property - thereby eliminating haying to advias ~
theae people to be preaent ~t ~ore than otte publ3c hearing, both before the Commiasien
aiid the City Council.
Coa~ieaioner Camp noted that he was in sym,pat~p with Mr, Noble's etatemettt; hawever,
this aid occur every once in a whi],e, and ia thie particular instance, t'he rsqueet
fAr continuance was on the part oP the City to include a11 the property for coneideration
of rezoning rather then one pareel at a time aince the property was uttder one ownerahip.
Chairman A1]sed noted that the Commiaeion had to conalder facta and data on petitiona
eometimea four to five timea with the same evidence presettted; {~t aince the petitiotter hae
autrmitted a requeat Yor continuance, and the ~ity felt this continuance wae valid, the
Commisaion ahould consider t}dia as one zoning petitiott.
Oommiasioner Gauer ttoted that,if ~he Commiaeion w~re aware a requeat was to be conaidered
for continuance oP a petition prior to the meeting, the people in the audiettce ahould be
advised of thia at the beginning of the hearing, rather than making them ait through two
to thrae fi~oura of other public hearinga.
Commiseioner Rowland noted that the Commisaion received their Comm3,aeion meeting packeta
ott the Friday be£ore the public heaxing, while legal ttoticea hsd to 'oe publiahed eome
t'fine grior to the public hearing.
Zoning Supervieor Rattald Thompaon noted that at the Interdepartmental Committee for
1'ublic Safety and General Welfare which was held aevett days prior to the Planning
Commiaeion meeting, the deciaion was made that all the property ahould be coneidered
under one reclasaification; however, the legal noticea sent to the property owna~ra
within 300 Peet of tue property, the neuspaper publication and the poetittg of t;he property
were required by law to be completed tto leas than ten days prior to the public hearing -
therefore, meny of the problema which are found at the Interdepaxtmental Committee meet-
~8 ~'e found after the property ownere have been notified, and this wae oae of the
reaeona why continuancea are then recommettded attd asked for.
Commisaioner Farano noted that although the Commission and ataf£ were aware the petition
would be continued, there was no way of l~oW~g whether or not an,p oppoaition would be
presented, and there was no one they lmew who the City could notify ae an official
repreaentative that a petition wae to be continued. However, he did agree with the
atatement made by Comm3,ssioner Gauer tfiat the people should not be required to ait for
aeveral hours when a continuance requeat had been received and such continuancea were
generally honored by the Commisaion ia the paet. F}u~thermore, the Commission and ataff
ahould try to eatablish a procedure whereby the oppoaition could be notified in advance.
Co~iaeioner Gauer then stated that 3t was his opin~oa that regardlesa oP a writtett
request for continuance having been sutmitted by the petitioner, the owner or hia repre-
sentative ahould be preaeat at the public hearing in order to answer any questions that
mi.ght ariae.
The Commission again noted that their body had always honored requesta Por continuancea,
bsaing this on the fact that ihey assumed the requeeta were made in good faith; f`urther-
more, each property owner ~d the right to requeat a change in zoning £or his property,
and the Commieeion would have to evaluate each requeat to determine the proper land uae
and whether or not it would be detrimental to the acl,joining properties.

RECLASSIFICATION - Aaeiatant City Attorney John Dawaon noted that the Co~isaion could
N0. 68-69-29 eatablish s policy.that all continuances would be honored; however,
the petitioner or his repreaetttative should be preaent, aince if a '
CONDITIONiII~ USE requeat for continuance were denied, thia could eatablish a vexy
PERMIT N0. 1069 haxm,ful, legal situation £or both the Co~i,saiott and the property
~Continued} owners.
Mr. Noble again appeared before the Commieeion and ttoted that both
he attd Mra. Roberts had been adviaed by attendanta at the Planning Dep~tment counter
that subject petitions would be heard at thie hearing, and no mention was made that a
continuance ~had been requeated.
Mr. Tom MeCloud, 2547 Strong Place, appeared before the Commisaion attd requested considera-
tion for an evening hearing on subject petition becauee there were more than 200 property
owners vitally concerned with the proposed uae o£ sabject property, and conaideration of
the additional property to the aouth of the propert;~ preaently advertised would have no
ef£ect on the oppoaition to apartmenta propoaed adjacent to Rtl. Furthermore, he did
queation the tactics o£ the staff in recommending that the petitioner not be prosent.
Mr. Thompaon noted that the repreaentatinea of the petitiotter were preaettt at the Inter-
departmental Committee meeting, at which time continuance was recommended, and the
repreeentativeo agreed to said continuance; however, they were also informed to preaent
a letter requeating the continuance.
The Commission further noted t?;at the Commiasion rras required to cottaider tha property
righ'ts of the acl,joining property as well as the petitiotter, and that the aituatiott that
occurred was not the fault of the staff becauae the Commiasion had never had a policy
in the paet in which continuancea had been honored; therefore, the Commiaeion ahould
adopt a policy by which continuances could be adminietratively handled so that intereated
peraons would be noti£ied in advattce, even on the firat item of the agenda in order that
th•e intereated paraona would not be impoeed upon by having to take time off from work or

preaently had on the property so that thia could be made a matter of record.
Mr• Marguliewc advised the Commiaeion that only four eigns were ou the property.
Mr. Thompson then noted ~hat the ataff had taken Polaroid picturea of the property at
1525 South Ehclid Street at appr.oximately 2:30 P.M, on thi.a date, and theae~picturea
indicat'ed approximately aeven aigna. Furthermore, the Police Department had requested

MINUTES, CIT7C PLANNING C02+II~lISSION, November 4, 19(~g 42~3
~MIN~NT TO T~ ,- The`Commisaion noted that at the public hearing regarding:signing
- ANA~IM MIINICIPI-L" of the Rannow produce atands there was coneiderable discueeion:as
~~ to the number of'signa, 'and the Co~.i.esioa` aleo indicated t~ere
(Oontinued) any aigns'approned could be located.'
In reviewiag the picturea takea by the etaff, the`Commiseion further noted tbat'they
could aee at le,qst aix signa.
Mr. Thompaon noted for the Coa~ieaion that the City Council had approved Your eigna
not to exceed 20 aquare feet, and that theee aigna ahould be placed so:as not to obstruct
the view of the motoring public.
Mr• Margu]-ietix iadicated it wae hia opinion the aigna on the property had bsen-approved
by the City Council at their preaent location:
Mr..George Osumi, 1582 Weat Broadway, appeared before the Co~aiaeion and noted they had
Farmed the 25 acrea preaeatly located at Loara Street and Broadway for`the past ts,i'
years and aold etrawberriea at the stand on the property where they had adequate ofF-
atreet parking, anc~ the sale of the berriea occurred between March and the firet part
oP June; therefore, he was deeirous of continuing thie operation eince they had a licenae
t'x'a~m the City to do ao.
Mr• Thompaoa inquired whether t~e atrawberriea were the only produce sold and whether
theae were grown on the property.
Mr• ~sumi noted that they aold only the berries and the were ~
y grown on th~ property. ;;
Ni~'• Ear1 ~rrarray, operator of the produce atand at 1180 Weat Ba11 Road, appeared before, +~
the Co~nisaion and inquired ea to the epecific wording of the propoaed change; whereupon ?-i
Comm9.seioner Farano noted that the propoaed change would permit the sale of produce grotm :~'
on the property only.
Mr• Curraway then noted that the erlsting Code had been wiaely writt,;.n and to cha.nge it: r
would be changing,,the law of the land and would deprive'the farmer`owning txo piecea of ~
property, one a number of miles distant Prom the other, from aelling the produce'Pram ~j
one of theae,parcels; that he had invested over ~].OO,C~O before he was'able to realize '~ ,`'
~Y monetaxy`return; that the L. A. Timea recently printed`an article about the plight `
of:the Parmer, eapecially in the strawberry busineas, where the grower made no money
from the berriea except thoae which he sold at the atand located on the property; and ~;;~
that the growing o£ berriea wae s gamble, and they had planted 28 acrea of plants in . '''~'
guguat and were now putting in the November plants from which they hoped to make a living ~"~=
Fhrthermore, he was'aure very little research had been made by the City regarding the
propoaed change in the Code and auggeated that the City Attorney inveatigate the righta
oP a farmer and the lawa handed down throughout the coutttry which granted the farmer
the veated right to aell what he grew, and that the farmer had to aupplement hia own
produce in order to make a living; that their operatiott wsa one of the free ettterprise.
operations eo dear],y cherished by the country remaining, that the farmere were in extat-
ence long~before many induatries came to the Cit,y and aeked nery little in the way of
services from the City while the City received consid~rably more in taxea and aervicea
given.
~'. ~rraway ~rther noted that last Spring of the th,':rtq acree they had planted v3,th
berries, a decision had been made to abandoa ten .of the acrea - however, he had adviaed
the pereon who had made the decieion about abandonia8 t~e berry planta that he would
hire school children to pick them, rather than.abandoa the berriea and that he would take
them to varioua atenda to aell; that msny of the berry growers plowed under thair eropa'
because of the price, even after having iavested $3,000 per acre, and they did not run
to the City or the Federal Government for any asaiatance because of this losa, but were
atill required to pay their taxea, and ell the £armer was deeirous of doing rras to be `''
left alone to make a 1iv3.ng as best he saw f~t on the property; that'the City o£,Anaheim
could take pride in the fact that the berries grown in the City and Orange County went ~ I'
throughout the country as well as throughout the world.
Mr• Curraway, in referring to the fact that they had hired school chilclren to pick the
berriee, noted they had hired 125 e~hool children - this not only hs~lpefl the'farmer,
but aleo helped the children with expenaea for school. ~rthermore, he was of'the opinion
that the City was under preeaure Prom the well-financed chain stores to cloae down the
emall produce etanda, and the farmer could not afYord a spokesman to defend their righta;
that he had been up aince 1:30 in the morning this date, attempting to pick up all the
produce from the various areas, and he had approximately ~30,000 ittveated in produce
which would be loat if the Code were amended; and that byr aupplementing the crope, the
varioua produce atande were helping other farmera through reciprocal sales'by taking

The Commiaeion inquired of Mr, Curray~ay wha.t apecific recommendations he had regarding
the propoaed amendment; whereupon Mr. G~u~raway stated he did not suggest any change -
however, if some limitationa were made which were eomewhat more lettient than the propoeed
amendment, perhaps they could live with it. ~thermore, he wae well aware of the
preseure the City officlals were under and the traffic problema which had been inherent
with produce standa.
The Commieaion adviaed Mr. Currarray that no presaure had been brought on the Commieaion
by outaide people, but becauee Anaheim wae a rapidly growing city, changea had to occur,
and regarding the property rights of the farmer and other citizene of the City of Anaheim,
as the City grew, it became imperative that the righta o£ all property owners would have
to be protected, and one way thie could be accompliahed was by eatablishing site devel-
opment etandarda where certain properties were used or deneloped for more intense uae
than origiually zoned. Theae standards would have to be mat - auch as dedication, atreet
improv~ent, curbs and guttera, aidewalks, attd street lights - itt order to retain the
integrity and value of adjoining propertiea.
The Commieeion again inquired as to what Mr. Curraway would auggeat could be done to
protect the agricultural properties still being uaed for agricultural purposes and atill
protect the acl,joining properties developed with more intenae uaes, aince they were re-
quired to provide these site development standarda since the Commieaion was not deeirous
of placing reatrictiotts on tha farmer that would harm 1~im~ and then cited one inetance
where a produce atand had empty, rotting crates and rotting vegetablea which ware not
only unaightly, but unhealthful and depreciated the value o£ the adjoining propertiea.
1~Ir. Curraway noted that he rented the property and problems regarding rotting vegetablee
ehould be referred to the County Health I}apartmentsittce tkiey inapected his place continu-
'ally and he had received their approval; that he presently had private trash pick-up
daily which he paid for so that the health hazard would be min3mized. F1~rthermore, he
was desirous of having the produce etand he presently operated be acceptable and wanted
the City of Anaheim to grow with proaper3ty and to ramain the No. 1 city of the riation.
The Commiaeion then inquired whet~ar or not the produce atand operators would be willing
to sit down with the Commieeion and ataff at a work sesaion to draft acceptable aite
development atandards to improve the appearattce o£ these propertiea while still permitting
the produce stands to operate with few handicaps.
b1r. G~.trraway noted that farmers were unuaually busy, and his appearance before the L'ommie-
aion waa coating him money.
Co~iseioner Rowland noted that the problem of taxea was a problem experienced hy all
farmera throughout the nation where taxea were more than the income from the property
and then cited the inatance where the farm land he owned, valued at $600 per acre, had
•returna that were ineufficient to meet the coats of operation as well as taxes. There-
fore, the property quoted by otte of the produce atand operatora, indtcating that the
property was valued at ~30,000 per acre would mean the taxes could never be met regardlesa
of the amount of outside produce brought in, and the preaent use sa it pertained to the
City of Anaheim was an interim uae of agricultural property. _
Commiaeioner Camp noted that the Curraway produce stand did not present the same problem
£aced by the City where zotting laws had to be enPorced on other propertiee bsing uaed
for commercia~ purposee; however, the Commisaion wae concerned with atands where all the
produce sold was brought in since, in his eatimatiott, these were not farmera trying to
sell the crops grown on the land, but regular commerc3al operatora enjoying a commercial
venture without having to meet the ueuel City aite development atandarda which other
commerc3al properties throughout the•City were required to do - one of those including
off-atreet parking, Flxrthermore, the Commiaeion was not desirous of putting the legitimate
farmera out of buainesa; that at least half of the Planning Commisaion had been reared on
farms and understood their problema; and that the regulations were aimed at operatora of
produce standa which were aupermarketa operating without neeting legal City requirements.
Mr• Ourraway then indicated he wou].d be happy to meet with the Commiasion to conaider
a solution to the problema preaented at the hearing; that he wae aure othera would also
be willing to meet - however, adequate advance notice should be given ae to time and

Coa~iesiotter Gauer inquired oP Aaeietant City Attorney John D~waon ~'";
whether or not he could do some reaearch regarding the law of the ~,{,
land and inherent righta o~ farmera ae noted by Mr. Curraway, ~: •-:~
;"i' Mr. Dawaon advised the Commiasion that he lrnew of no lawa o:her than the basic principlea
of zoning and land uae which had been basicallp upheld by the coux+ta in the psat, and
then inquired of Mr. G}.irraway the name o£ hia attorney who would be familiar with the
atatements made by him.
~~~ Mr. G~rraway replied that his ettorttey was Dennia Menke, whoae office was at 433 Weet
?~~~ . Eighth Street, Santa. Ana,
~ ' The Commiesion then directed the staf£ to reaearch and draw up applicable aite develop-
' ment standarda for the uaee of R.-A properties being operated ea produce atanda, both on
~ '~ a tamporaig and a permanent bsais, within the City, and that other communities should
~:; ::.,;~ be contacted to determine how they resolve their problama.

~, ,` 1~Ir. Thompaon than indicated to the Commisaion that if a light agenda occurred on the
~•.; :; December 2 meeting, perhapa th3a work aession could be acheduled under Reporte and
~ ~'; Recommendationa, and the produce stattd operators notified at ths ;me the agenda rras
r ~ prepared as to the time and place of thia work aeasion.
~;;•; ,;: ;~.
Coa~iaeioner Farano offered a motion to continue consideration of an amenc~ent to Title 18,
Chapter 18.16, Sectiott 18.16.030~4) of the Anaheim Municipal Code to the meeting of
December lb, 1968 in order that tlu~ther data regarding site development atandards, legality
of the propoaed amenc~ent, and other information could be ca~piled by the ataff prior to
the work seaeioa between the Commiaeion, the ataff, and the produce stand operators.
Commisaioner Camp aeconded the motion. MOTION CARFiIED.
1~Ir. Thompaon, in responae to Commisaiott questioning relative to complaittta from the
Police Department, had indicated the Police Department had made several complaints
regarding the aigns of the propertq at F~clid and Cerritos; that ttumeroua field inspec-
tiona had indicated the property wsa poated with more than the permitted four aigna,
and it was the onlp produce atand in the City which rras permitted four aigns; that
the Commiesion had denied the request, but the City Council had permitted the four
aigns, and.aince the field inspectiona had been made, it was apparettt the operator had
never complied with the requirementa of the resolution adopted by the City Couttcil.
The Commiaeion noted that the Zoning Enforcement Afficer ahould enforce the reaolution
pasaed by the City Council ae to number of aigna, and it should be mude per£ectly clear
to the operator exactly what was granted to him under the variance by the City Council.
Mr. Thompsott noted tba.t the Zoning Enforcement Officer would ad~iae the operator of
the atand at Cerritoe attd Aiclid of the signa which were not permitted by the reaolution
paeaed by the City Council and ittaiat that these be removed by 9:00 A.M., ~eaday,
November 5, or the City Attorney would remove them.
The Commiaeion then requeated that the City Attorney~s office review the numerous
violationa of the variance granted Mr. Margulieux and Mrs„ pannow to determine whether
theae violationa were e;ifPiciettt to request that the City Council conaider revoking the
variance. FS~rthermore, Mr. Margulieux ahould be adviaed of the diacuasion held by the
ataff and the Comm3,eaion relative to the violationa occurring.
~N~MINT TO T~ - PUBLIC HEARING. INITIATED BY Tf~ CITY PLANNING C02~AffSSION, 204 East
ANAHEIM MUNI~IPAL Lincoln Avenue, Anaheim, Californis; to coneider an addition to

require cottetruction or development of single-fami~y residential
etructurea ad~acent to arterial highways ahall be oriented ao ae
to "rear-on" such highway.
Aasiatant Zoning Supervisor Pat Brown reviewed for the Commieaion the previoua report
presezted to the Commiaeion relative to the propoaed amendment, noting that thia was as
a reeult oP the Front-On Study made by •the ataff and the Commiasion and adopted by the
City Council wherein the undeairability of having homea fronting attd siding on arterials
created the aituation whe=e reaidenta of theee homea were requeating commercial zoning
for the property, and by requiring that where a property was acl,jacent to arterials
which were propoaed for development of eingle-family homea, such as R-1, R-2-9000, R-H
and R-E, rear-on to thesa highways, co~ercisl converaion could be discouraged or
eliminated, and that ut the October 21, 1968 meeting, the Commiasion had recosmended
