CONDITIONAL USE - CONTINUED PUBLIC HERRING. LA SALLE HOTEL COMPANY, 8370
PERMIT NO. 1248 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 410, Beverly Hills, California,
Owner; N. P. BARLETTA, National Sierra Pictures Corp.,
105 South Prospect Avenue, Tustin, California, Agent;
requesting permission to ESTABLISH A MOTION PICTURE STUDIO AND RELATED TOURIST-
ORIENTED ATTRACTIONS, INCLUDING :tESTAURANT AND COCKTAIL LOUNGE FACILITIES on
property described as: An irregularly-shaped parcel of land consisting of
approximately 18 acres, having a frontage of approximately 649 feet on the
south side of La Palma Avenue, having a maximum depth of approximately 1,058
feet, and being located approximatepy 1,000 feet west of the centerline of
Kraemar Boulevard. Property ~resently classified COUNTY OF ORANGE 100-M1-
20,000.
Subject petition was continued from the meeting of July 26, 1971, to allow
time for further study.
Commissioner Farano advised the Commission that the public hearing on Condi-
tional use Permit No. 1248 was clo~ed from the meeting of July 26, 1971, with
the proviso that it could be reopened to hear any property owner and industrial-
ist who had not appeared at the previous meeting and if he would care i:o make
any statements not made at the July.26th meeting. Since a full Commission had
heard the matter on July 26th, there was no need to go into a full scale hearing.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS REOPENED.
Mr. Jerry Ward, 4332 East La Palma Avenue, Anaheim, representing Industrial
Properties, appeared in opposition. He stated that tlie northeast Anaheim area
is the only industrial area in orange County other than Irvine properties.
The restrictions in the Irvine area are high, and even so Irvine is getting j
the "cream of the crop" in industries. Anaheim's northeast area is a good ~
area and to compete :rith Irvine, it must be kept strictly for iadustry. If a ~
movie studio is allowed for strictly that purpose, making of movies, the use ~
could be allowed, but as a tourist attraction, industrial business would be f
run ou~ of the area. Mr. Ward cited Santa Ana and Garden Grove areas as ?
examples of poor planning and hodgepodge in their industrial parks planning. ~
Zoning Supervisor Charles Roberts read two letters ~
(one from North American
Rockwell, and a resolution from the Anaheim Cham~~er of Commerce) in opposition
requesting that the Northeast Industrial Area be maintained for industry.
Mr. Nicholas Barletta, National Sierra Pictures Corp., 105 South Prospect ~
Avenue, Tustin, agent for the petitioner, advised that the continuance was
primarily for the benefit of the Planninq Commission and staff, and that
spontaneous objections were easier to deal with than a letter from such people
as the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce and Autonetics.
Ch~~.rman Farano read from the minutes of July 26, 1971, the motion to continue
this hearing on Conditional Use Permit No. 1248 to the meeting of August 23,
1971, to allow time for surrounding industries to establish a position on the
proposal.
Mr. Barletta expressed the opinion and wished to go on record as stating copies
of the letters (Autonetics and Chamber of Commerce) should have been given to
him prior to tkte current meeting so that he would have been informed of the
apposition. The agent indicated that the proposed development belongs in an
M-1 Zone since it is a manufacturing of film facility, there is an educational
quality attach~d to the manufactur3.ng end of the business. Relative to the
opposition due to a tourist attraction, this operation would not be too d?a-
simtlar to motton picture studios such as Universal; far more attachment t;~
been put to the tourist end of the business rather than the studio part ~•f
tha bus;~ness, rou must take into account the quality of business that is
nece~sary to make motion pictures. Mr. Barletta advised he has developed
many industrial properties in Anaheim and feels that this type of £acility
would not detract from the industrial area. To compare :Anaheim with Irvine
is a mistake, irvine Company has been able to develop from raw land. Relative
to traffic as alluded to in the letter from Autonetics, cars visiting this
operation will carry from 3-3~ persons per car, whereas the average auto
driving to work at Autonetics carries one person - one car.

71-552
CONDITIONAL USE - Mr. Barletta stated he was unable to understand why the
PERMIT NO. 1248 Anaheim Chamber of Commerce would be against this motion
(Continued) picture studio, that perhaps it was due to a lack of
understanding as to what was being proposed. The project
would certainly bring a certain amount of additional
tourist traffic into the area, it would open a completely new industry in the
County. The studio would be situated near the freeway and on the periphery
of the industrially zoned property. He further noted that a park or recreation
area was being considered close to the Santa Ana River bed, that there was
already a miniature golf course in the industrial area. Mr. Barletta was of
the opinion that space oriented industry is on the decrease and there were
some areas of disagreement with the letter from North American Rockwell. The
proposed facility is allowed in the M-1 Zone and certain satellite uses per-
mitted as long as they are oriented toward the pattern being developed.
Commissioner Farano inquired as to the activities that would be taking place
at the studios, such as Roaring 20's type bank robberies, musicals, stage plays,
etc., if these would be per.formed in the amphitheater and was advised by Mr.
Barletta that many of the performances would be on film.
;.
~
~
I
Mr. Barletta advised that there would be approximately 45-55 employees, the
staff would be both technicians and administrative personnel. The total
number of employees for the concessionaires would be between 40 and 70 employees.
,~. Mr. Barletta read a letter from Architect R. N. Thomss and Associates relative
%~= to parking capacity, lndicating 70 spaces for employees and the remainder for
tourists. At 3~S persons per car, parking could be provided for 5,000 people
? per day, with a turnover of cars and tourists anticipated. The operating hours
;ul would be 6:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. for the sound stage; 10:00 A.M. to 8:00 P.M. for
~~ the public oriented areas; and 8:00 A.M. to 1:00 A.M. for the restaurant and '
~{ cof£ee shops. The heaviest tourist traffic would be June through September,
~~'' with July and August taking about 90~ of the total annual traffic. Mr. Barletta ,i
;~• further stated that he had checked with Universal studios who have 420 acres
under roof with 1,000 parking spaces; Magic Mountain has 200 acres with 5,000
_ parking spaces. There would be no driving type tour, a"walking type tour"
through the studios.
Commissioner Allred inquired if the area could take care of all anticipated j
.~_ needs or r~ould the petitioner have to use more industrial land should they
outgrow th:ir present proposed development. He was advised that this proposal ~
- :~ is for a mini-studio, primarily for the low budget picture as opposed to the '
;.Li epic picture, such as Ben Hur.
t
~~ Mr. Barletta stated that in his opinion the value of the surrounding property
would increase if this proposal were approved, that as matters stand at present,
the property owners in the area have not been able to sell their property,
. that buildings are being constructed on a"spot" basis rather than large devel-
opments, that any good development that has some relationship to M-1 and C-1
could increase the value of the property and aid the properties in beinq leased
and sold.
;~,
Commissioner Farano advised the public hearing was allowed to remain open for
the purpose of soliciting comments from the opponents in the area and pro-
ponents of this proposal.
Mr. Jerry Steinbaum, President, La Salle Hotel Ccimpany, appeared for the
applicant, advising he has been the owner of the property on which the proposed
use will be located; that during the last eight years the property was offered
to whomever approached him for development, however, he was never able to
'; develop it. First,, it was because of the Riverside Freeway, then competition
~ from the Irvine Company, the valuation has not risen five cents in the eight
' years it has been owned by Mr. SteinSaum. He further stated that North American
"" ' Rockwell had opposecl him before on anticipated developments. Regarding traffic,
at any time of the day except when employees are going to and from work, the
traffic is extremely light, that there should be no traffic problems whatsoever
,_ ..
:, either on Kraemer or La Palma when this movie studio is developed.
The property is bound~d on one side by the Riverside Freeway, an onramp on
another side; a total 40-acre piece is completely surrounded and this project
could really not grow any further because it would be stopped by streets.
~'`. However, this would not be a problem because there has been no demand for
~,„t~ industrial property in the area concerned.

':~.-f"i ~ .
(Continued) recreation oriented and 508 industrially oriented, by
approving this proposal the Commissian would be placing
other property owners in the same position.
Mr. Steinbaum stated that the property was not worth any more than it was
eight years ago, which statement was questioned by Commissioner Seymour.
Mr. Steinbaum stated that property owners were not being offered any more than
' they were eight years ago, that two years agc they were offered less The

~ `~~°~ owners are trying to do something to qet the property developed, that it was

I~~ a burden. Further, that they have been unable to sell the property for industry
,i 1, because the Irvine Company is putting in key industries and satellite uses all
,~, a.cound them, all demand for indnstrial property in A:zaheim was grabbed by
Irvine, and atated he felt that the owner in the community should be helped
, to dispo~e of his property.
r
THE PUBLIC f1EARING WAS CLOSED.
` 1y A summary of the Commissioners' comments is as follows:
:,~
! Commissioner Gauer: This is on the periphery of the in3ustrial area; a motion
:1- picture studio and restaurant can go into the industrial area automatically;
r;,~ as far as the number of people going out there, this business is not going into
~~ the center of the area, it is going on the edge. Anaheim Lake is out there,
we have North American with its golf course, we have this other little golf
'_;:'•~ course there in the industrial area; we have talked about the integrity of the
M-1 area, and I am certainly for it; I cannot see where this is going to hurt
the industrial area because it is on the edge of it; we have to have some kind
i~~ of a catalyst to start with some kind of movements; this will bring employment,
will bring development even if they have a certain amount of commercial-recrea-
i tion out there; will bring sales tax; would rather see some form of development
„!.:;q,j than a vacant piece of property.
,j The Commission discussed whether opening up the industrial area to other than ;
~ industrial development would affect other industrial users in the area. !
Mr. Roberts pointed out on the General Plan map the location of the proposed ~
?1 develop~ent. Mr. Gauer indicated no other development other than industrial ~
1
should be allowed in the area and should not "suppose" any would be received,
since none were on hand. ;
,;is j
Commissioner Herbst: Tr~ so-called Orient, which is commercial-recreation ;
~ oriented, went into the Southeast Industrial Area, it had signs up around the
,°~1 area, it appears that every place they put their sign, the industrial growth
stopped. Industry would not develop in the area because of this supposedly
approved business which was tourist oriented. I have no objections at all to
" the studio, but when it says right here in their own advertising that it will
`'`: become a major tourist attraction to the City of Anaheim; we have a zone that
i~ would be far be:ter for this use than in our industrial area, we took industrial
:? property and rezoned it contiguor; to our commercial-recreation area, business
can go in there right now and without any variances whatsoever, they might even
"~ have a better chance to survive as long as they stay within the intent of the
zone. They would attract a lot more people, they would be a lot more success-
ful, they would have room to expand, they would be able to supply the necessary
parking if they 3id have to expand, here they would be going into a pocket where
it is the prime interest to our industrial zone. Sure we have a lot of indus-
trial property out there, but if you look at the property along side of it. We
have thousands of acres of undeveloped residential ground. We have several
s ~ hundred acres of undeveloped commercial ground. We can't develop all of Anaheim
'r '' overnight, it is goin to take several
g years. We must hang onto this industrial
j? ' zone which is surrounded by freeways. The best thing that we have separating
b~- ~! any commercial area or residential area is space and the freeways surrounding
~i this area is the space that we need to protect it from not only itself but from
the residential and commercial areas also. Sure, we ne~? a certain amount of
commercial business in the industrial area, but_ not tourism. Tourism is in-
f,t compatible, it doesn't fit, and we have a place for it. We ~~lanned the city '
thi.s way and here we are going to take a prime piece of industrial ground which
is freeway exposed and convert it to tourism. There is no question in my mind
'' that it will affect the whole area because it is to the interest of the indus-
~' trial areas and the City will have adverse effects on it because we have had
~+~ i proof in the past of this. There is no question in my mind that the industrial
" people will start backing away from Anaheim further, and then we will be creat-
ing a large volume or large acreage of additional commercial-recreation area

CONDITIONAL USE - in Anaheim when we already have a few hundred acres that
PERMIT NO. 1248 is not being used. T don't think this is
(Continued) and it is going to take a few 4ood planning,
going to take a few Yezrs to develop, it is
area, that Years to develop that whole canyon
particular industrial area up there is going
to supply thousands of jobs for this community to help the rest of the com-
munity grow and it has got to be done through loiig-range planning. I fee3
that once we open it for tourism, it is going to be gone, other areas we have
had have gone the same way,
Commissioner Herbst offerea Resolution No. PC71-164 and moved for its passaae
and adoption to deny Peti ~n far Conditional Use Permit No. 1248 based upon
the above reasons, feeling that the use is more commercial-recreation oriented;
tourism is going to far e::,;eed the industrial, making of pictures; in the long
range, it could go 75-808 with restaurants, shops, other commercial-recreation
attractions. (See Resoistion Book)
Prior to roll call, the Commission voiced the following comments:
Commissioner Rowland: It is my understanding that the planning process involves
c~onsiderably more than putting color on an expensive piece of paper on the wall;
it involves circulation element; electrical service, water, sewer; that these
de~mands on different land uses are entirelp different; it :s all well and good
far us to sit here and react to the economic pressures that are very, very real
to all of us but I am not so sure it is that simple. i am not so sure that as
part of the plan we haven't, over a long period of time, committed this land to
a specific use. Now I can be real wrong, but we say that this specific piece
of property is on the border, it is on that map, it shares in common with every
other laad use in that vicinity, access by circulation elements that are speci-
fic no matter what color you paint it, these are real conditions. I think that
the reaction if we change the zone on this, I think it is a fine project, I
agree with Commissioner Herbst that there is probably a better spot in the
community for it, however, it is not proposed for a better spot, it is speci-
fica~o o for here. 2 think the Council committed themselves to the
~~ia went in there east of this property. maybe the Council wants
to react to hese pos3tions and change the zone out there, 2 think we are pretty
far down the road planning-wise to change it without a serious study of the
services that are available for land change. If the City wants to move in
another direction after these ten years, maybe it is long enough to give it a
chance, but I think that a study would have to be more in depth than the color
change that we are discussing here. I don't think that it is our prerogative
to change as far as the studio and restaurant are concerned, if you believe
in the legality in what you are doing here and showings required by State law
for a variance, under a Request £or Variance it says to indicate how said
variance is necessary for preservation and enjoyment of a substantial property
right possessed by other property owners in the same viciiiity and the same
zone which is denic:d to the property in question, if you feel that tourism is
an asset to this pa,rticular site, then the next property owner who wants to
avail himself of the same right has a right to do so under the variance pro-
cedure; which should be encouraged; I don't think that the property should be
developed under a variance, it should be developed by zone chan3e, by develop-
ment standards of the zone that is available. if we want to change this thing,
let's change it en masse.
Commissioner Seymour: I would like to make a few comments here. This thing is
about the best looking hot fudge sundae that I have seen in a long time. It
makes my mouth water; I would like to go with it so badly. With the economic
situation of the City, there is no doubt that we could use it, for the
admission tax generated; what few jobs it would create we could use; there is
no doubt in my mind that the landowners and Mr. Steinbaum in his presentation
made it clear, that the landowners are in a difficult position. When we are
faced with a crisis iike this, we take another look. I think, Commissioner
Herbst, you put it very well at the last meeting when you accused me of p3nic
a' then 2 further defined how i felt about the thing. I feel that we have
~ to take a courageous, forthright, positive stand on this, we have got to
g~ ~ut and create and encourage and sell and promote industry to come in here.
We have to sell aur place. Irvine has a fine development. There is no doubt
about it that they don't wait for the client to come to them, they go get the
client, and Z think this is the aoproach we have gut to take. If we can take
that approach, then I think we can maintain the commitm%nts we have made to
industry, and we have made commitments. When they have come to us we have
said yes, go in there, we are going to protect this area, we are not going to
let the other uses encroach into this area, and I think we have to live with
those commitments. I also fePl that if we go with this particular use it is
poor economics, although we are not supposeci to consider eccnomics on this body,

GONDITIONAL USE - I can't help but feel that a zone of this type will reflect ~
PERMIT N0. 1248 in the adjacent properties then wanting higher valued use,
(Continued) and I think this t ~
~ ype of planning results in R-1 to R-3;
Q,-Ox to C-l, and M-1 to C-R, and that becomes a hodgepodge,

"how much or industry in the area is going to make use of this?" If we can
see in our own minds that a large percentage of the industrial labor or person-
nel in that area is going to use it, fine, it serves them. But I used that
same thinking on thia project, i came up with a zero and, therefore, I am in
strong support of C~mmissioner Herbst's motion although that is a fine looking

Subject petitions were continued from the meeting of August 9, 1971, to resolve
the tie vote.
Assistant Zoning Supprvisor pon McAaniel briefed the Commission on surrounding
lahd uses which include a convalescent hospital to the north; vacant property
across Beach Boulevard to the east; single-family units and vacant property to
the south; and vacant agricultural property to the west. The subject property
was zoned C-1 in 1965 under Reclassification No. 64-65-133 and Conditional Use
Permit No. 1097 was approved in 1969 to permit construction of a billboard on
subject property.
Chairman Farano advised the Commission that the hearing was closed at the
meeting of August 9, 1971, and remains closed.
Commissioner Allred, who was not present at the August 9th meeting, advised
that he had read the minutes of that meeting and had gone over the plans of
development and now felt qualified to vote on the matter.
Commissioner Herbst offered Resolution No. PC71-167 and moved for its passage
and adoption to recommer_d to the City Council approval of Reclassification
No• 71-72-8. (See Resolution Book)
In discussion, rommissioner Seymour reiterated his position on the previous
vote, ~ndicating that if the subject parcel were zoned R-3, the parcel to the
west should also be zoned R-3, unless an adequate buffer would be provided
to the adjacent property.
Commissioner Farano stated that durinq the last public hearing there was some
discussion to the effect that the property fronting on Beach Boulevard was
suitable for reclassification, some property was not desirable as R-1; that if
this motion were passed that the Commission should re-examine the entire City of
Anaheim to determine what other pieces of property are in a similar situation,
that it would place the individual property owner in a better position if they
knew how the Commission feels.
Commissioner Herbst stated he felt commercial property and R-3 are as compatible
as any property; and that maybe there is too much C-1. The area along all of
the arterial highways cannot all be commercial, there must be some residential.
Commissioner Rowland indicated since voting on August 9, he was changing his
vote; the fact that this piece of property shared two types of uses was no big ~
deal; he was most concerned before about the continuous density westward but was
pretty well convinced that the density will increase. Fie further indicated
that the Anaheim General Plan is not a zoniny plan, the Commission cun make
this property go any way; rhat he was going to vote for this project, it is a
reasonable development.
Commissioner Herbst stipulated that one condition should be that the owner shall
install a landscaped screen which shall consist of trees planted on 20-foot
centers along the entire westerly boundazy of subject property.

Assistant 2oninq Supervisor pon McDaniel reviewed the subject petition, noting
the property is bonnded by multiple-family dwellings on the nos~h and east and
to the south across La Palma Avenue; and medical offices to the west across
Acacia Street. The property was zoned C-1 in 1966 under Reclassification No.
65-66-118. The applicant's plans indicate a large bar area, two pool tables,
- and a table-type shuffleboard. The plans indicate na tables or booths for

Mr. Marvin H. Weiss, 9171 Wilshire Boulevard, Beverly Hills, attorney and i
agent for the petitioner, advised the Commission the proposed use was for ~
on-sale of beer only, no n ~ ~r~f~~ie ~alcoholic beverages; that the ~.se ~:~u3d
,be fami~ly-type billiards~e p""r~Ssa1 was to use frozen sandwiches and use
ea ng units to heat them; there would be no necessity for a large kitch2n area.
The center in which the proposed use would be located was built approximately
two years ago; that at that time it complied with landscaping, etc. The beer
bar was to be located in the center of an eleven-store complex. Mr. Weiss
advised the Commission that the residential units to the north were approxi-
mately 100 feet from the proposed use, other residential uses to the east about
250 feet, while to the west it was about 350 feet. The lease specifically
provides a clause that there would be no go-go, topless or undesirable type of
pezson permitted on the premises, so there would be no problem of the beer
parlor turning into some place where undesirables would congregate. Mr. Weiss
introduced Mr. Gaines, who would be the operator, noting that Mr. Gaines is a
resident of Orange Couaty; a former employee of Autonetics for thirteen years
before he was laid off.
Mr. Weiss indicated the hours of operation to be 8:00 A.M. to 2:00 A.M., that
no children would be allowed, they would cater to family-type use, pool tables
and shuffleboard only, beer would be the only beverage served.
Commissioner Herbst advised Mr. Weiss that in this particular area there is a
large concentration of students within a one-block radius - a junior hiqh
school, Catholic Church school, and a good percentage of these children pass
the corner where the use would be located; that this particular operation is
not the environment wanted.

Mr. John Fedor, 1021 Acacia Street, Anaheim, appeared in oppocqtion, r.epresent-
ing neighbors in the audience, Mr. and Mr;s. Clasen, advisin3 that the rear
area was unlighted and unsightly, that the area for the ~roposed use was very
small. He was not opposed to billiards, but to having beer on the premises.
Father Joseph Sartorius, Associate Pastor of St. Anthony~s •-•arish, ;vas also
in opposition, advising he represented 3,000 families in the area. .SL. Anthony's
Church has a seven-day week church, over 600 students in ;chool, plu;• n>ght
classes. He felt there was sufficient family recreation in the area; that the
close proximity of the schools was not tlie location for s;ich a use; he stated
he was opposed to the location of the use.
In rebuttal, Mr. Weiss advised the Commission the applicant was proposing a
local beer bar to cater to the local community, not to the transient. There
has been no opposition expressed by other businesses in the center.
Commzssioner Kaywood offered Resolution No. PC71-169 and mov~ci f^r its passage
and adoption to deny Petition for Conditional Use Permit No. 1255 on cha basis
that this use was obviously not a famil}•-type ust as it was advertised to be;
the very small area of the operation and tk:at a beer parlor would be the major
portion of the operation; the hours of operation; children passing every c7ay;
and would definitely be detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of the
community and injurious to the adjacent land owners. (See Resolutic~n Book)

RECLASSIFICATION - PUBLIC HEARING. BILL ASAWA, A.S.A.W.A. CORPORATION,
N0. 71-72-13 806 South Beach Boulevard, An=.heim, California, Owner;
property described as: An irregularly-shaped parcel of
VARIANCE NO. 2289 land located at the northeast corner of Beach Botilevard
and R~me Avenue, having frontages of approximately 120
feet on the east side of Beach Boulevard and 127 feet on
the north side of Rome Avenue, and further described as 2973 West Rome Avenue.
Property presently classified R-1, ONE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL, 20NE.
REQUESTED CLASSIFICATION; C-1, GENERAL COMMERCIAL, ZONE.
REQUESTED VARIANCE: WAIVERS OF (1) REQUIRED PARKING TO REAR OF RESIDENTIAL
STRUCTURE, (2) 6-POOT MASONRY WALL WiiEFtE PROPQSED C-3
ZONE ABUTS RESInENTIAL ZONE, AND (3) M'AXIMUM SIGN AREA
TO PERMIT GENERAL OFFICE;S IN AN EXISTING RESIDENTIAL
STRUCTURE.
Assistant Eoning Supervisor.DOn McD:aniel reviewed subject petition, indicating
the surrounding land uses include_..commercial to the north; ~inale-family tract
to the east and south; and a motel across Beach Boulevard to the west. The
property was zoned R-1 when it was subdivided in tfie County and subsequently
annexed into the City of'Anaheim.- The applicant proposes to utilize an exist-
ing residential structure for an office-t_ro'fessional building; to abandon the
frontage road along Beach Boulevard and-uti:.ize this area and the driveway to
the :esidence as the parking areas for the urae; he is further proposing to
construct an 8-foot high, two-faced, "V" sign containing 32 square feet per
face, to be located in the front yard of the existing single-family residence.
The Ananeim General P1.3n indicates the subj~ot property to be appropriate for
single-family residential development.
Mr. Bill Asawa, A.S.A.W.A. Corporation, 806 South Heach Boulevard, Anaheim,
owner, appeared to answer questions. He advised the Commission he owned the
adjacent property to the north, had originally owned the property where the
service station is located, also the "not a part" was recently owned by his
corporation. Eventually, they hope to take down the building to the north
(stereo tape sales) and put in a new building; a time limit will be put on
use for the c-xisting residential structure. The type of use would be profes-
sional, insurance or medical.
Mr. Stanley Jensen, 2950 West Rome Avenup, Anaheim, appeared in opposition,
submitted a petition with 88 signatures representing all the homeowners in the
vicinity. He advised the Commissioners they were not in opposition to devel-
oping of the ar.ea, not against progress, but do object whan it comes right to
their front door; they would have preferred to retain the rural atmosphere.
This proposed development is just a commercia'1 venture for Mr. Asawa, they are
concernecl for the safety of the children since there are no sidewalks and the
children must travel to and from school in the streets; the residence he wishes
to convert faces Rome Avenue.
Mrs. Shirley Swider, 2955 West Rome Avenue, Anaheim, appeared in opposition
advising that Rome Aveaue is the only east-west street that is completely
cut thraugh from Beach to Dale between Ball and Orange.
Mr. Asawa stated that his corporation owned the service road and was advised
by Office Engineer Titus that the service road is dedicated to the Cit; of
Anaheim.
in discussion, the Commission questioned Mr. Asawa as to his intentions since
the residence in question is an attractive home; that one of the drives
proposed for use is on Rome Avenue, the structure fronting on Rome Avenue.
.a..._...... -_ ,~-
Commissioner ;Kaywood asked(.the~"app],ican`ti'iv]iethei'~he'was'presently"xes'iding in °'"'
subject property, a: rmer model of the Cinderella Homes. Mr. Asawa stated
that he had never l~ved in this house and offered to prove it, contrary to his
original statements at the time he was granted rezoning on the Seach Boulevard
property .to.the•north,.from,.R-A,to.,C-1, that he did own and reside in the house

THE HEARING WAS CLOSED. ~ ~
Commissioner Seymour offered Resolution No. PC71-171 and moved for its passage
and adoption to recommend to the City Council disapproval of Reclassification
No. 71-72-1's on the basis that since there was an over-abundance of C-1
property in the area, to spot zone tvould be a mistake; that the structure was
in one of the prime residential areas in Anaheim; that the applicant has dis-
played no hardship; that one of the driveways the applicant proposes to use
fronts on Rome Avenue, which is strictly a residential street; and that if
zoned C-1, it would be detrimental to the health, safety and welfare of the
p~tizens of tha r;r.. ..a „__L_s_ ._ _ _

1 located on the west side of West Street approximately
941 feet north of 25orth Street - Request for aFproval
of revised plans.
Assi,tant Zoning Supervisor pon McDaniel reviewed Variance No. 2242, stating
the subject property consisted of five Farcels of land, comprising approxi-
~ mately 2.8 acres of iand, and is located on the west side of West Street,
_~,;i approximately 940 feet north of North Street and cs zoned R-O. Variance
':.~ rro. 2242 was approved by the Planning Commission on April 5, 1971.
~ The petitioner was requesting approval of revised plans which would show a
~ reduction of rear yards on Lots 1 and 12 from 2'l feet down to 15 feet; a
reduction in th~ side yard setbacks from the 7 to 9 feet approved down to
t?, `~'~~ 5 feet for Lots 5, 6, 7 and 8.
Mr. McDaniel advised that rsubsequent to tne writiny of the staff report,
r,: revised plans had been reccived by the petitionez indicating blank walls
~~_i where the setbacks have been reduced. On all six lots where the setbacks
~'^~ have been reduced, the size of the house floor area has been increased, which
,:.
' probably contributed to the need to reduce the yard setback.

ITEM NO. 2
TR7.VEL TRAILER SALES FACILITY at the northwest
corner of Anaheim Boulevard and Midway Drive.
Mr. Roberts: An item has come to the attention of the staff concerning the
proposal for. a travel trailer sales facility at the northwest corner of
Anaheim Boulevard and Midway Drive. You will recall that you approved C-1
zoning along with a variance for the property several weeks ago, and that
the Council sustained the recommendation of the Planning Commission.
At the Commission meeting one of rhe conditions chat was imgosed pertained to
the number of sewer hookups that could be provided to service the vehicles that
would be braught onto the property for sale. The plan has been submitted for
seNer and e7.ectrical and indicates that there will be 12 ~~ervice bays and that ~
two of thes~: bays would have sewer connections, and that particular p:lan ~
indicates that Y connections will be provided along the sewer line to the other !
10 service ~paces. Ir, addition to those spaces there are other spaces un the
lot that would be display spaces and that particu?.ar plan indicates there ~
would be an electrical and water hookup to each -~f those spaces. A question
arose in the mind of the staff concerning whethcr or not this particular plan
would meet the intent of the Planning Commission's action for approval. We

have had discussions with Mr. Randolph, who is the operator
tion proposal. Mr. Randolphahasiindicatedathateitgwouldnberhiseintentssorlhe
would be agreeable to eliminating all of the water connections at the display
spaces, that is out in the front, and th<,:t he would be agreeable to having
just two sewer ec.,nections within the service area. I believe he does have
some question about the wash area which is noted o:n that plan and also the
service pit which is on the plan.

Mr. GaL~r: He's not proposing to rent spaces, is he?
Mr. Roberts: No, sir, he has indicated that it is not his intent to rent these
as overnight spaces; they would simply be for servicing and display of vehicles.
Mr. Farano: Service and display of whose vehicles? He might display his own
vehicles, but is there any kind of int~nt in regard to other vehicles?
Mr. Roberts: Mr. Randalph is present ---
Mr. Randulph: Yes, sir, we have no desire or intent to display any other
vehicle.

;<.,; :
Mr. Farano: Mr. Randolph, then why have you brought Y connections into 12
spaces even though you don't have the sewer connections, and further, I under-
stand t.he plan shows a 4-inch drain for the two spaces permitted.
Mr. Rsndolph: No, sir, that isn't....to take them separately. Sy the way, if
there !.s any fault about this drawing, it is mine because I did it and my
intentian was good. I told Mr. Roberts that if there was anything he faulted
about it, if he would point it out to me I would change it. But my thought in
making those Y's along there, we are going to put more than $200,000 in there,
and if the day comes when we need another sewer, we would come ask you for
permission to have it, and if we got it, we wouldn't have to tear up, but
Mr. Ruberts thought there was something dubious about that, and I said well,
we'l1 just put the two sewers, the first two, and cut of£ the rest. It will
save us a lot of money now.
Mr. Allred: Why do you have - need - all the electrical in your display area?
You show electrical and water. I know some of them should be lighted, but
for each one that you display you show an electrical and water.
Mr. Randolph: i'll tell you why I did that, sir, and I may have been wrong
and it is easy to change. My thought -~+as that we do have the intention of
having a very beautiful thing there, done the finest we know how to do, and
so many of these other places that have a similar business, you see hose
running across here where they need them, and they have wires running over
there and they look so shabby and disreputable. Now as a matter of fact, when
I got throuqh with that the electrician man said it would cost us more than
$7,000 to have it that wap, but I did it with the thought we'd have something
neat and very high class and very pretty.
Mr. Farano: Mr. Randolph., 2 can't argue, i think that suggestion is an
excellent one and I concur - some of the other sales yards do have wires
running over them so i wouldn't object to that, but 2 do object, and I
definitely would not concur in running water lines to each one of those spaces.
If you want to wire that trailer for display purposes, fine, but I would not
concur in the water hookup.
Mr. Randolph: Now I told Mr. Roberts that so far as the water hookups, I would
take away any and all of them except to leave enough where we oould have a
hydrant where we could wash down the blacktop, and we wiii strike out all the
water except for some hydrants. That is a big parc~i. ~
i
Mr. e111red: I think it could be administered by staff.
Mr: Randolph: And I told him if he would take his pencil and tell us where he
wanted them, we would do it.

RECOMMENDATIONS !
Mr. Farano: How soon do you anticinate a mobilehome '
now that you are usinqionemofethentravelttrailersrthemselves forcan officezce i
Mr. ~~.:,:,~dolph: No, that isn't quite true, sir. We don't have an office space. ~
Mr. Farano: There is one parked right out in the middle of it - if you move it
further back in zelationship to the mobilehome office on the plans ---
Mr. Randol.ph: We have to take so many of those so the deliver it and we ~
set it somewhere and there it is, it's locked up tiqhty there's nothing theret
it's just sitting there.
Mr. Farano: How soon do you expect mobilehomes being delivered. ~
Mr. Randolph: This is our thought on that mobilehome. As soon as we can get t
7
the permission of the Bui,lding Department, and get the permit that we need so ~
that we can have sewer, etc. there, we want to move forward. This is really, ~{
sir, the thought about that mobilehome. We expect to spend very near $18,000 i
to have the finest, most beautiful mobilehome which you can buy, it will be a
Golden West, with nice ,skirting and it will be, all in all, it will represent ~
probably close to $25,000 before it ---
Mr. Farano: Awnings --- ~
Mr. Randolph: Awnings, oh yes, you see these itea~s we are selling run upward
of $7,000 and so we've got to have something nice. And it isn't - we could
build a buildinq there. a nice building that could comply, 2 believe, with all
the regulations of the City for much less money than we intend to put into this, ,
and it is my sincere hope that if we perform as I expect we will, that a year
from now I'm coming bacA: and say to you gentlemen, I want you to look a~ what
we h~ve there, and see if you think merely because, as one gentleman pointed ~
out, it could be a tax tartar if it was a building, and see if you say you
really want us to take down a$25,000 building to put up something that will
not be as fine. And I expect to be here a year from now to ask what yaur will ~
is on that.
Mr. Farano: Do you have any more questions on this. Mr. Randolph is going to
leave the electric here which I think is a good idea, but he will remove the
water except for enough bibbs to use as a wash-down program and to water the i
flowers -- hose bibbs in the planters anyway, have the Y connections discon-
nected along the back, have two spots that are for sewer outlets at the end of
the property.
Mr. Rand~lph: There is one other thing that I would like to have you tell me
what your will is. We are going to have to occasionally wash down a trailer -
they get dirty - with dust.
Mr. Allred: Makes no difference than the guy who does car wash jobs. I
Mr. Randolph: And it was mp thought that we could have a place back there
that had a little place where _c would dxain and yet go away into the dr,ain
instead of having it go over the place, it looks so ugly and trashy and I hope
that is permissible, because I w~uld like to ac~ it.
Mr. Allred: As far as I'm concerned, you could put a drain out in your parkinq
lot where you could wash them down possibly from out there also.
Mr. Randolph: 2 don't know if they would let us have a drain.
Mr. Herbst: I don't feel allowing the gentleman a drain for something like
this is not like having two sewer outlets for two trailers. ;
Mr. Farano: An outside drain for him to wash down his trailers. ~
Mr. Allred: Keep it off the streets, drain the property. As a matter of
fact, looking at this I don't know whether you intend to wash your trailers
off outside in the di5~lay area at all, like they do with automobiles, for
instance, the display areas in these auto rark;n~ are~~

RECOMMENDATIONS ~
Mr. Randolph: We weze hoping to move in the back there and ~
have a man who would wash - but I would like if I might have ;
the privilege of having a couple of drains there because you take hard rains
when they come, that's a long piece of ground, 337 feet, 175 feet deep, and if ~
I could have a couple of drains, I'd love to have them. (
I
Mr. Farano: Well, I'll tell you as far as I'm concerned, I have no objection ?
to drains as long as the flood drain with :: grade on it, that it's not a sewer i
connection to be used in connection with a mobilehome or travel ~trailer. I ~
have no objections, simply a flat drain with a grade on it. But the minute
anything else comes up off the ground or goes into it, as far as i'm concerned, ~
that is not what we're talking about.
Mr. Randolph: That's not what I'm talking about.
Mr. Roberts: would it be the Commission's intent to allow the service pit - is
that correct, Mr. Randolph? Mr. Randolph has indicated that there may be
occasions when it might be necessary for one of his men to get beneath a trailer
and he would like to have a pit where they could drive a vehicle over the top
of it and the man could get down inside the pit ---
Mr. Randolph: We'll have it covered at all times. ~„_
Mr. Farano: I think that is all right as long as it is confine~d ~o his own ~
sales. Now here is the problem. I don't knoau whether this is true as far as ~
these trailers is concerned, but take the trailer repair agenr;ies and companies ~
around here, sometimes they won't take an Avion oz they won't take a Silver
Streak or an AirStream because of the aircraft type construction, so it almost '
has to go back to a sales and servicing aqent who sells and services that
trailer. Now as far as the sales and service of that trailer, then I have no !
objection, but I don't want to see a trailer repair yard because I don't think
this is the pZace for it. ~
~
Mr. Randolph: No, sir, we don't either. 3
i
Mr. Farano: Taking off the sides and replacing and all that. ~
4
i
.ir. Randolph: No, sir. j
~
Mr. Herbst: If this would happen, inside of one year this could be revoked ~
unless you ~ut it all inside the building. ~
Mr. Randolph: That is t.he provision of it already.
Mr. Herbst: If you are going to go that route, if we find out it goes that
route, then the provision would be that you'd have to close the operation.
Mr. Randolph: Yes, sir, that is already provided. We have no intention of
doing that.
Mr. Herbst: That is the intent of the Commission.
Mr. Roberts: The only other question that the staff would have then would be
concerning the connections - the two sewer connections for the servicinq
activities. We have been informed by the Building Department that there would
be no way of providing a standard sewer connection on the ground and then choke
down the piping.below that, that would preclude the use for residential
purposes and still be able to demonstrate all the water facilities that are ~
inside the trailer. So the Building Department has advised me that the only
way this could be accompl.ished would be through the installat3on of a dump
station - or dump stations. ,
Mr. Randolph: In connnectfon with that ---
Mr. Roberts: He shows one, it may be desirable to have more than one.
Mr. Farano: I don't see how he can use ;aore than one.

Mr. Randolph: We only wanted one, sir. We only wanted

stations, Commissioner Rowland stated that within the framework of the

- could be of less than standard size, it was just a matter of telling the
plumber what was required therefore, the condition as set forth could be met
such as a 4-inch trap with a 3-inch line which would be adequate for testing
and so that is what I put on the paper to tell.
