made to uae the medical office parking lot, if there is a pecking ovsrfiow.
Dr. Acthur C. Elliott, 624 N. ~nAheim BoulevArd, etated he has been located at
this locati~n aince 1942, and he is concerned about the parking in fcont of
his office becauae many times his elderly patients need help to walk end right
now there ia a painted cucb whe~e they r.dn park right Sn fcont. He stated he
is not objecting to the proposed uaes, but is concerned about the othet people
on the street. He stated there ia congeetion and parking pcoblems in the ~reA
now and he will not tolerate the petikioner's clients parking in his parking
lot in the reac.
Mr. Vazquez replied the unly way to provide more parking ia to blacktop the
whole front area. He added he was nat suce how they could police the
on-street packing in front of the medical office. He stated there will be 6
to 8 maximum employees and thdt the briddl ehop would require more parking
because the real eatate people do most of their businesa away from the
office. He explained there will be nbout 5 ceal eatate agents employed et
thie facility.
THE PUBLIC HEIIRING WAS CLOSED.
Responding to Commisaioner Bouas, Mr. Vazquez stated they wfll not be holdinq

Responding to Commiseionec Bushore, Dean Sherer explained slightly leas
parking is required for office uses and further explained 21 spacea would be

Jack White, Asaiet~nt City ~ttornex, explained when property abuts a public

they are there for the uae of the general gublic and there is no legal way the
City could control those spaces and they are availeble on a first come/first

would be Allowed under a conditional use permit ap it could be reviawed.
~.a~k White nnd D~een Sherer explained a conditional uee permit could not be
required because the uaes are p~rmitted by right in thia zon~+.
Commissionec Bushore atated there is no other plrce for people to perk and
Chairman Pry pointed out the employees will be utiliz~ng moac of the parking
spaces. Commiesionec euehore atated evecy Friday morning any real eatete
office has the agents come into the office at the aame time to aacevan to the
varioua new lietings.
Commissioner La Claire stated as long as the other portion is used ae a bridal
ehop, dnd with 5 redl eeteCe agenta, ahe Eelt the two uaee would probably
work, but if approved, it could be uaed for enything approved in the CG zone.
Jeck White pointed out any use allowed in the CG Zone would be permitked, but
they would have to have a vari~+nce for any perking deficiency.
Commiasioner La Claire asked if thece are any uses which would meet the
parking requitementa foc this proper~y. Dean Sherer stated in thie caee
Pla~nning staff would "flag" th~t particular property on the Zoning Maps
indicating th~t it was approved for e bridal ehop and real estate office only
end any new businees license applica~tiona would be reviewed.
Commisaioner Le Claire stated she really does not have any objection to a
bridal shop because it would not have that much w~lk-in tcaffic and the real
eatate offices may accasionally get two or thcee care in and asked the
applicant to stipulete to only five real estete agents.
Mr. Vezyuez replied it would be difficult to say what would happen in the
future, but he knowa many other real estate offices who have more employee~
wikh less parking.
Commissioner Bouas pointed out the other agencies would not have another use
on the same property.
Commisaione~ eushore 8tated he thought khere would be a lot of in and out
traffic with the bridal ahop, eapecially since they will be centing tuxedos
and that this would be a rather large shop.
It was clarified that parking spaces would be added at tha front of the
building and right now there are no spaces at all.
Commissioner Bushore asked why t~ variance ia needed when it it existing zoning
and in an existing building. Dean Sherer replied it is existing
non-conforminq and it was a City-owned property being uaed for Parks and

Commiesioner Buahore asked why thie ia neceseacy, with Mr. Vazquez r@plyi.ng
the building doea not meet Codes for $afety or eacthquakea and pointed out the
properky never had any parking.
Dean 3herer atated he has not seen the appraisal of this praperty but thought
one was probably prePared and th~t the property was marketed with the
understanding that it w~s 2oned commercially, but improvements would have to
be made to the etructure.
It wa~s noted there were a lot of employees thece when the property was used by
the Parks and Reccea~tion Department.
Paul Singer pointpd out when the City owned the property, there were two
parking apaces ad~acent to the alley, which are not shown on this plen. He
atated there wece 10 apaces otiginally on che lot, but the City is going to
maintain enough property to widen the stceet in the future.
s Commissioner Bushore etated thia property was put out foc bid on more than two
occat~ions And aaked if it would be put out foc bid agein if this is approved
; with the person knowing that it could be used for these proposed uaes with the
spaces as ehown.
Jack White stated he understands that the pcoperty otiginally was assigned a
fair market value based upon appraisdl of the land and structures, as is, and
that the property was put up foc bid based on the fair market value at e
minimum bid price and the City received no bidst and then the property was
reappraised and came back at a lesser market value and again the City received
no bidss and that this aqent• subsequently, aubmitted an offer to pucchase the
prapecty and is trying to make sure he will be able to use the propecty as
pcopoaed and is seeking a vatiance prior to the completion of the eacrow and
that th~ decision is up to the Pldnning Commiasion. He stAted if this
veriance is approved, the offer will be taken to the City Council for the sale
of the property and he did not think the property will be put up for bid again.
Commissioner Sushore atated the Planning Gommission is cepresenting the City
as the Planning Commisaion and at the same time the City of Anaheim is the
applicant, wi~h Jeck White advieing th~t the Commieaion ahould not bp
infiuenced by the fact that this is a Cit~-owned property and their decision
as a Planning Commission should be based on whether or not the use meets the

the numb~r of reel eatate ~genta to a maximum of 5.
Paul 8ingec stated e perking etudy w~a done on thia property and it doesn't
matter how mAny agenta the ceel eatete agency employs es long as there are
only two there at any one timet And with 10 apaces available end 5 apecea
being utilized by employeea f2 ce~l eatate ~nd 3 bridal ahop), the remaining 5
epaces would be used by cuatomers and viaitore. He eteted it wea felt efter
reviewing the packing etudy that the parking would be adequate.
There wae a brief diRCUasian with Commiasionec Bushore indiceting he felt
there was no way to control real eatete agente there would be employed or how
many customers there would ber but if there wds e pr.oblem, the neighbors would
cepoct it.
Jack White auggested the Ci,ty could require thet a covenant be recorded
limiting the uaes of the propecty to those pcoposed, a real eatate office and
bridal ehop or any other uae which would comply with theae pdrking
requirementa as aet forth in the Code or additional approval of d veriance, so
it would be clear to any subaequent pucchaser that they do h~ve actual
knowledge ~f the l~mited parking aituation.
Paul Singer clerified that upon widening of Anaheim Boulevard, there would be
five lanes plus parking on both sides, however, parking may be limited in the
future when capacity on the atceet becomes inadequate to handle the traffic.
Responding to Commissioner La Claice as to what wouid be done if it turns out
there are too many real eatate agenta uaing up the parking and causing
problems for the neighbars, Mr. Vazquez stated if he were to occuFy the
building today, he would be the only agent= howevec, he c~uld not pinpoint the
actual numbec of agents in thp future. He stated the busiest time for the
ceal estate office would be Friday mornings, but most of the time they would
be out in the field. He atated it wauld be a Redhill Real Estate Office end
stated he would agree that if there is a comglaint, he would take care of the
complaint and he does not want to have any problema with his neighbors and if
there ate changea, he would have to yet a new license which would take care of
any problems. He stated he does not aee any parking pcoblems.
Commissioner King suggeated eliminating the bridal shop with Mr. Vazquez
reaponding that one of the main reASVns he wanted to buy the building was to
open the bridal ehop. He stated if there is a parking problem he would be
forced to eliminate one of the bueinesses. He stated there is na parking
provided on any of the lota on this street and thie property will have more
parking than the othera and the street is qoing to be widened and the
Commission will have the same problem when any othec property in the area
develops and that theae two bus~nesses as ptoposed, will have very little
tcaffic.

Responding to Commieaioner La Clsire, Jay Tashiro expl.ained fn 1975, Anaheim

An~heim Hills wuuld construct a dreinage facility on the subject site at the
time development occura and also that whoever develops first wnuld have to
develop the plans and get any approvala from any other jurisdictions that are
necessacy. He stated the problem here is that if khie p~operty is going to be
developed at this time, the developer would have to p[epare plans and get
approval before consttuctinn is pecmitted.
Jay Titus, Office Engineer, atated the waiver that was granted by the City
Council fn 1975 had the condition that if Anaheim Hills, inc. developed any
further within that dtainage area or if any properties downstream developed,
then the owners of property downstream wuuld prepare the plans and Aneheim
Hills, Inc. was to construct the facilitys and that Anaheim Hille, inc. has
not developed any further and they have not initiated anything that would

Mr. Kellmen eteted the flow line cefecred to ie the 1 acre parcel ~uet to the

~naheim Hills, inc. would be requiced to conetruct the etorm drein.
Jay Titue eteted th~t is the waY the candition waa written as approved by the

question was raiaed and the developery of the church were prPpered to h~ve the
plana drawn and they did discuss it with Aneheim Hills, Inc.r howeve-, he w~s
not aure wh~t~~ecision had been. He stated he believed in 1975, Anaheim
Hills, inc. did submit some preliminary plans.
Chairman Fry pointed ouc thece are two separake properties and drainage would
be acroas the other properry to the west.
Reaponding to Chairman Fry concerning acceas, Mr. Kallman stated from hia
understanding, he would have tu have ~ aeparate lbne for access from Santa Ana
Canyon Roed.
Paul Singer stated this property was intended to gain accese from A cul-de-sac
that ia on a reaidential Etreet to be developed with single-family homes which
would be on the 2 acres immediately to the weat of aubject p[operty. He
stated it would require r.he conatruction of a bridge oc a culvert to bypass
the drainage facilitiess and that there is no official acceas point on Santa
Ana Canyon Ro~d; that the City Council has a study for specific acceas pointa
to Santa A~a Canyon Road and those are the only approved ~ccess points and if
an acceas point was permitted to this property from Santa Ana Canyon Road,
that map would have to be amended by the City Council an~ should that happen,
it would moat likely be requiced by the developer to widen Santa Ana Canyon
Road to its ultimate width whfch is three westbound travel lahes and a
deceleration lan~to accesa the propecty itselfs and this wduld include
provisions for the bike trail and in any case there would be no accese across
the median islanda.
Chairman Fry stated it would appear that this Generdl Plan Amendment is
prematuce because it is not know~ whece the access is going to be or what the
drainaqe will be.
Joel Fick, Aesistant Director for Pianning, stated both those statements are
corcect and without apecific plana, ataff has no way to determine what the
impact would be because of aetbacks on San': P-na Canyon Road.
Jack White etated the question is what is the moet appropriate land use for
this property and if the Commisaion feels they do not have enaugh informAtion

she does not have enough inEormetion becauae if ~here ia onl.y one ecceae
thcough ~ residentisl aree, aha clid n~t think it would work a~nd if the
drAinege cuta up the p~operty ao the:u ia nathing left foc commercia~l
development, ~het would be a bad aituation. Commis~ioner Mc9~~cney agreed and
ateted the dcainage end acceea wil.l he very criticAl.
Mr. Kallmrn stated he will requeat a postPonQment in order to provide specific
plana and nlso to prove that dceinage ie not e pcoblem with this one percel.
Commianioner Le Cleire stated she thought the property ie draining pcoperly,
but there ere 800 acres thet heve to drein that way and thet is the pcoblem.
Mr. Kallman atated dr~inage is already thece on a percel directly to the west
whece there are two culverta and a net:urel dcainage culvert which ~~xtendr to
the county dcainage facilities.
Mr. Titus stated that existing drainage fecility can hanclle the present flowj
however, the facility has to be d~eRigned to hendle the ultimate development
and whether or not thia pro{~osed storm drafn goes across thia parcel, ie not
the queation becauae the condition says iE any parcel downstream develops, the
condition will be in effect.
Mr. Kallman atated he thaught khe Council was talking in terma of the acreage
~south of Santa Ana Canyon Road and not neceasarily in terme of this pr.operty.
He etated it ia true that future dpv~lopmen~ would create a dreinaga hazacd
and if there ia going to be future developme ~, obviously the conditions
impoaed in 1975 would have to be met, but the '-acre parcel they are planning
to develop wil2 nnt change the exlating drainage of the 800 acces dicectly
south, but he would like to have an oppactunity to study the situa~ion end
also to research the question regbcding 1-naheim Hills' responsibility to bear
ttie bucden of construction of lhe starm drain. He added they would iike a
continuance t~~ be held in the next meeting or two.
