MINUTES~ ANRI':'IM CITY PLANNING COMMISSIOV, APRZL 28. 1986
Continued fcom the meeting of April 14, 19a6
There wete ren persons indicating their presence in opposition and two
persons indicating their p~esence in favor of subject cequest and
although the staff report was not read, it is re£erred to and made a part
of the m:.nutes.
Michelle Reinglass, attorney, statec after receiving the staff report and
reviewing the comments subnitted by the Traffic Engineer, which comments
they feel were valid, the applicant has agreed to withdraw the request
for the waiver; however, they are still requestiny the conditional use
permit for the sale of beer and wine and the addition of the patio. She
stated the applicant has been showing good faith in trying to meet the
City requirements and trying to establish a wholesome restaurant where
families can enjoy a good han~burger with a glass of beer or wine and also
enjoy the California sunshine outside on the patio.
Ms. Reinglass stated they are aala~e of a lot of questions and contro-
versies which have taken place over the yeacs. She stated they purchased
this existing dcive-thcough, drive-in restaurant in its exact
configucation and it contained the same enclosures and ordering board,
and has been in opecation in that same manner for the past ten years; and
that it was dete~iorating and becoming an eyesore and also becoming a
health hazard, and that the applicant is cleaning up the premises and has
made several sutstantial imp~ovements to the restaurant in his effort to
present this family atmosphece.
Ms. Reinglass stated they have also employed the services of a security
guard to monitor the traffic, noise and customers on Friday and Saturday
and Sundays and they would be willing to employ security guards at othec
tirnes, if needed. She stated allowing the oeer and wine in the patio
would keep the customecs on the premises to consume the beer and wine and
eliminate the problem ef customers drinking in their vehicles and the
problem of littec with beer bottles and cans in the parking lot and
added, howevet, her clients cannot conkrol the actions of outsiders. She
stated the applicants agree with the recommended conditions.
Art Garcia, Real Estate Departmen- oc Federated Stores, stated they have
enteced into a leasP to operate a kalph's Market at the former Zody's
location and expect to commence extensive cemodeling next week. He
stated on three diffecent occasions, they have observed activities on
weeke~ids at this location and have concluded they would oppose this
request for a conditional use permit because Angelo's existing parking
lok cannot accommodate the number of people who are frequenting this
location; and that thece were 200 to 300 people in the area using the
future Ralph's parking lot and thece was a considerable amount of debris,
even with several Guards on duty, and he thought even with secucity
guards, it would still be difficult to poli~e the situation and restrict
their customers from parking on the Ralph's parking lot.
Mr. Garcia stated this will be a g,iant supermarket operation and they
will have limited patking when they open and that is the rea4~2g~86Y
MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSION, APRIL 28, 1986 86-280
object to this conditional use permit. He stated they also want to go on
record supporting a letter dated April 9th to the Planning Commission
from their landlozd objecting to this conditional use permit.
Maria McShea, resident of the Anaheim Vacation Park, 311 N. Beach
Boulevard, stated this pack is next to Angelo's and explained they have
not seen anyone catering to that ~estaurant, except young teenage men and
young men in their twenty's, who are enjoying the restaurant in a very
loud obtrusiv? way. She Ntated the people in this pack do not disturb
anyone, and they cannot get their cest at night and have no recourse; and
when they t,ave told the police about their problems, the police have
cesponded that they would try to quiet them down, but she has not heard
any improvement. She stated as wonderful as California is, it cannot
provide sunshine in an eating place at night when these acti.vities take
place. She stated the patrons of this restaurant have no consideration
for their neighbors.
Ray t4eador, Sterik Company, sta*_ed they own the parking lot of subject
property and have submitted a letter regarding the prope~ty. He asked if
the existing conditional use permit pecmits a dtive-through resta~rant
and asked if this permit is granted, whethee or not it will be permit:ting
the drive-through restaurant as a permitted use.
Malcolm Slaughter stated tt~e applicant, thcough their attorney, has
indicated to staff that they are not presently applying for a permit for
the restaurant itself since they feel they already possess the right to
operate the business under a previously-approved conditional use permit,
but that determination has not been made. He stated staff has reviewed
the existing conditional use permit and apparently feels there is no
authocity to conduct the restaurant under the pcesent permit. He stated
he did not believe if tne Commission yrants the petition as pcesented for
on-sale beer and wine, that they would be ratifyiny the existing use. He
stated he understood the applicant has withdrawn the petition for the
requested waiver and that is not before the Planning Commission at this
time.
Chairwoman La Claire stated the staff report indicates that the request
is to permit a drive-in, drive-through restau~ant. Malcolm Slaughter
stated that is staff's interpcetation of the request and that the
application for the conditional use permit did not include that
language. He read the request Erom the applicant's original submittal;
"that under the authority of Code Section 18.44.050.010 to petmit the
sale of b?er and wine within a restautant and patio." He explained they
have not requested the restaucant itself and that the a~plicant does fcel
ti~ey are entitled to continue undec their prior conditional use permit."
Annika Santalahti clarified the existing Conditional Use Permit No. 828
established a walk-up restaurant and this staff repo[t should have read
that the request is to permit on-sale beer and wine and an additional
patio area in connection with an existing walk-up restaurant.

86-281
MINUTES, ANAHEIM CZTY PLANNING COMMISSION, APRIL 28, 1986
Mr. Meador asked if it is the consensus of the Commission that the
drive-through portion of the restaurant is not a permitted use and should
not be in operation. Annika Santalahti stated Conditional Use Permit No.
g2g was app~oved in 1966 and the resolution permits the walk-up
restaurant and that is all that is allowed legally. She explained that
is the reason for the wording in the staff report and there are no
peCmits foc the dcive-through lane, etc. and the Zoning Code does
identify dciv~-up, walk-up, drive-through, ete. as diffecent kinds of
restaurants and ones that would have to be advertised specifically
because there might be different parking requirements, drive-through lane
cequirements, etc.
Chaicwoman La Claire stated the original permit granted a walk-up
restaurant and that a waiver for a 6-foot high block wall was requested.
Mr. Meador stated the Stecik Corgotation has definite plans to lease the
property to the Fedetated Department Stores for their Ralprt's Market and
t}~ey have developed site plans that will be filed with the City's staff
this week showing that their center and their othet centec in the City of
Anaheim will be upgraded. He stated they have a real urohlem in the
eveninys with 200 cars parked on their parking lot when the stores are
closed and that the people ace from the restaurant and they have had to
pick up in excess of 1000 beer cans and bottles which have been left on
the premises and they have had to increase theic maintenance activities
in that a[ea. He stated they do not contest the right of Angelo's to
exist in that location, but they should be requiced to do it within the
existing CodFS. He stated he understands there were no permits for a
drive-through facility or for the sale of beer and wine; and that they
have not seen beez and wine being sold on the premises, but it is oeing
consu~ed in large quantities and they can pcovide af£idavits fcom their
staff to that effect indicating the number of beer botcles and cans whic~
have been left behind. He stated they would encoucage the Commission to
deny this request and to ask staff to strictly enforce the o:iginal
conditions of the conditional use permit for the walk-up restaurant and
thought that would eliminate the existing bad situation. He stated
everyone else is asked to conform to the requirements and they are asking
that the same confo~mity be required of Angelo's.
Mary Hamilton, Anaheim Vacation Pack, stated she is against the liquor
license because they cannot control the crowd that is there now, even
with the secutity guard, and she could not see how they could control it
after the sale of beer and wine is allowed. She stated there have been a
lot of cars and people in that area, and they do make a lot of noise and
cause pcoblems.
Anthony Strammiello, Chairman of the Board of Angelo's, stated a lot of
things mentioned ace tcue. He stated that they purchased this facility
becaus~ it was large enough with ample parking and it has been a
drive-through restaurant for 12 to 15 years and they thought this would
alleviate some of the congestion from their first cestaucant on State
College. He stated they did not count on 2ody's closing and thought it
would be helpful when Ralph's oQens, if they would eliminate4/26/86 to
MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANt]ING COMMISSION, APRIL 28, 1986 $6-Z82
that packing area. He stated the cars parking there are not Angelo's
customers, but are loitecers and they car.not control that end of the
lot. He stated they propose thac those two driveways be chained when the
bu~inesses are closed which would eliminate access to Ralph's narking
lot. He stated they would like to build a wall on theic side to contain
all the parking.
He stated the people at the RV nack do have legitimate complaints and
they plan to extend the height of that wall by at least 3 feet and by
building a retaining wall, they could control their 50 parking spaces.
He stated they do not want the people racing cheir cars in the parking
lot, etc. because it does not help their business. He stated the patio
is in the front of the restaurant which would prevent their custom?rs
from going outside to eat and drink their beer and wine; and that the
Alcoholic Severage Contrcl Board requires that all patios be railed in
wnich wuuld prohibit customers from leaving that area without going back
into the restaurant. Ae stated some of the people who sit in their cars
to enjoy the ca~ hops, will congregate on the patio once it is
constcucted instead of in their vehicles which would bring the noise
level to the front. He stated they cannot control what is happening off
their oroperty. He explained again they are willing to build a wall or
extend ~he wa:l for the neighbors. He suggested it miaht be helpful to
close tnose five driveways and put up "no trespassing" signs and it would
also help with the problem of prostitutes working in the area bringing
customers behind the vacant Zody's scoce.
Ms. Reinglass stated their applicaticn is to permit on-sale beer and wine
and the building of a patio to an existing d~ive-in, drive-through
cestaurant because that is what has been thece, whether there is an
actual permit or not. She stated, with respect to Zody's or Ralph'~,
they knew that drive-through restaurant was there when they went in and
to now contend that this approval would change things, is not applicable
to this application.
Commissioner Messe stated the drive-through restaurant was not selling
beer and wine prior to its purchase by Angelo's.
Responding to Malcolm Slaughter, Mr. Strammiello stated they purchased
the property in February and were familiax with the operation and
explained they did try to negotiate for this property for over three
~•ears. He stated he was at the p~operty on weekends, but did not observe
the excessive parking problems on the adjacent parking lot because tne
restaurant was basically closed before they purchased it and explained
the Board of Health was in the pcocess of declaring it a health hazard.
He agreed he did not see any parking problems occurring on the vacant
parking lot before Angelo's went in.
Responding to Commissioner Messe, Mr. Strammiello stated they are not
selling beer and wine at this location at the present time. Commissioner
Messe pointed out they have beer and wine advertisements displayed in
their window, etc. with Mr. Strammiello responding that is part of their
dec~r.

MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANt7ING COMMISSION,- APRIL 28, 1986
Commissioner Herbst stated he offeced the tesoluti.n of approval for the
conditional use pecmit twenty years ago andandescceenin L~nuthemsouthern
a bond be posted foc the wall, landscaping 9
property line and asked what happened to that bond. He clarified that
the City Council resolution required conformance within 180 days.
Malcolm ~taughtec stated generally speaking, a bond is required to insure
the pec£ormance of an obligation and if a peCSOn fails to Comply with the
conditions, the City would have three o: four years to go against the
bond, but £elt aftei 20 years, the City's ability to recover would be
slight.
Chairwoman La Claire stated there are several issues he~e and one is
whether or not there was supposed to be a drive-through restaurant ~n
this site, and the second issue is that currently there are some real
problems and one is with packing, and the business is currently creating
a lot of problems for the neighbors, includi=antin rasbeertandnainee felt
until sarne of the pcoblems are alleviated, y 9
permit would just be adding to those problems and she could not vote in
favor of this request until those problems ace resolved. She suggested
the applicant request a continaance and work with the neighbors and
business owners in the acea to try to come up with a solution.
Mr. Stcammiello asked if the patio would present a ptoblem with the sale
of beec and wine.
Commissioner Hetbst stated unfoctunately, with the previous permits as
gcanted, this petitioner bought an illegal opecation and asked if they
plan to continue to operate t.he drive-through at this location. Mr.
Strammiello asked why they would want to stop operating the drive-in
which has been operating thece for 15 years. He stated there have been
chree previous ownecs of this p[operty. Commissioner Herbst stated it is
possible the applicant has some legal recourse against the seller, but he
did not think the Commission could gcant permission to have a
drive-through restaurant or allow the use to continue without proper
permits.
Chairwoman La Claire stated all that is befoce the Planning Commission is
the cequest for beer and wine and the patio. She stated she would like
for the applicant to solve the problems and then come back with his
[equest.
Commissioner Bouas stated she could not vote in favor of an EIR Negative
Declar.ation, so tY,e conditional use pecmit could not be granted.
Commissioner McBurney asked Mr. Meador if they could install barriers
such as chains to p~ohibit access to their parking lot until the new
supermarket is opened. Mr. Meador responded they have already talked
with staff and ocdered signs indicating "unauthocized vehicles will be
towed away" and those signs are just about finished and they probably
could add some chains to pcohibit access. He st~ted they feel they can
conttol the problem foc the next 3 to 4 months until Ralph's4/~S/gbned,
~

but if these permits are granted, and the Ralph's Matk=t is open until
midnight, thece will be a conflict with parking, etc. He responded to
Chairwoman La Claire that they would be willing to work with applicant to
werk out a solution.
Co:nmissionec Messe stated he noticed on Sunday very early that there were
20 to 30 vehicles parked along the north wall o£ that parking lot and the
restaucant was closed. Mr. t9eador tesponded he thought the owners of the
RV park have an agreement fot parking there.
John Pocle stated he thought all issues had been discussed and that he
felt something could be wocked out and the Code Enforcement staff would
be happy to work with both parties.
Chairwoman La Claice suggested Ms. Strammiello meet with the people
present today and get a list of their names and addcesses to contact them
and wock out a solution.
Malcolm Slaughtec suggested since the Planning Commission has closed the
public hearing and they only have forty days after the hearing is closed
to make a decision, the public hearing should be re-opened tc consider
furthec evidence at a continued heacing.
Chairwoman La Claice re-opened the public heating.
ACTION: Commissioner McBUrney offered a motion, seconded by Commissioner
Bouas and MOTION CARRIED that considetatio~~ of L-he aforementioned matter
be continued to the cegulacly-scheduled meeting of May 28, 1986, at the

MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSION, A°RIL 28, 1986 86-285
Aileen Kapp, 15892 Pasadena Avenue, Tustin, agent, explained she has
submitted a letter requesting three amendments to the previo~sly appcoved
resolution granting this reclassification, one being the legal
description which is Item No. 16 on today's agenda, and another that the
project description be amended to reflect the revised plans approved for
171 units rather than 183 and also, the request today is for the wording
for Condition No. 4 regarding recordation of the parcel map, posting of
bonds and dedication for street improvements within 45 days before the
zoning is final. She explained because of the 30-day appeal period, they
would like that condition modified because if the rezoning never takes
place, they would have improved the streets for a hotel development.
Mark Knocringa, representing Robert Wacmington Company, stated they are
in the process of purchasing this property and have begun construction
drawings foc a hotel and have some reluctance to continue to commit
resources without some indication on the part of this City to take final
action on the zonin9 for the ceclassification. He stated he understands
the reclassification is, more or less, in abeyance until Conditions 1
through h are accomplished and they would like to see something more
conctete.
TH° PUBLIC HEARING ti9AS CLOSED.
Chairwoman La Claire stated the Commission has never granted a request
such as this because if the propertx is rezozed without the requirements,
then anything permitted in that zone could be built on the property and
this is considered protection to guacantee those improvements or
dedications.
Annika Santalahti stated that is a vecy standard condition that is
included to get the dedication oc improvements and in this instance, it
is going to be a cul-de-sac at the end of a small street which will cacry
a lot of tcaffic and the City is quite concerned witF this area and any
additional rezonings to commercial will requite a cul-de-sac at the end
of Via Coctez. She added she could undecstand the applicant's concern,
but there is very little chance that anything would happen and in the
sixteen years she has been with thp City, she has nevec seen anything
happen to cause them to lose the zoning, 4ut if they had made the
dedication and if anythiii9 happened, they certainly could request an
abandonment of the street dedication.
Commissionet Messe staced the reclassification was granted by the
Planning Commission, but no action was taken by the City Council, so the
reclassification is approved, subjecc to the conditions being complied
with.
ACTION: Commissioner Herbst offered Resolution No. PC86-106 and moved
for its passage and adoption that the Anaheim City Planning Commi~sion
does hereby deny the request foc modification to Condition No. 4 of

THOMPSO[d & ASSOCIATES, 16520 Aston Street, Irvine, CA 92714. Prope[ty
desccibed as an ircegularly-shaped parcel of land consisting of
approximately 2.24 acres, located at the northeast corner of Santa Ana
Canyon Road and Weir Canyon Road, having approximate f~ont-ages of 393
feet on the north side of Santa Ana Canyon Road and 220 feet on the east
side of Weir Canyon Road, and fucther desc~ibed as 175 Riverview Avenue.
To permit a thirty-nine foot, six-inch high building with waivers of
minimum structucal setback, type of sign and maximum sign area and
display surfaces.
There were two persons indicating their preaence in opposition to subject
request and although the staff repoct was not read, it is refecred to and
made a pact of the minutes.
Leonard t4almquist, architect, explained the building is located on the
southeast corner of the propecty primarily because of the 130-foot
easement through the entire westecn portion oE the propecty. He stated a
59-foot high facility is being constcucted to the north and another
3-story building to the east and this will be a 2-story building with a
penthouse to enclose the air conditioning equipment and explained there
will be no roof-mounted equipment.
Richard Genzel, 5720 Avenida Barcelona, Yotba Linda, was pcesent to
answer any questions.
Esthec De Simone, 8417 E. Ambecwood, stated she lives on the view side of
the East 6ills Sellaire Tract, and that she paid a prereium for her lot
and moved in about 9 months ago and was told thece would be a one-story
commercial building built on subject property an~ that hec view would not
be obstructed. She stated, however, three weeks ago a 3-story building
was constructed which took up half of her view and then she received this
notice for a hearing for a praject that would take up the other half of
her view; and that she really resents that and did not feel this should
be allowed to happen to Anaheim residents wno pay taxes and are lied to
by the builders, and that she felt the .least they should do is to give
their money back.
4/28/86
MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSION, APRIL 28, 1986 86-292
Ed Yarnovi~h, 24~9 E. Amberwood, stated he feels the same as Ms. De
Simone; and ;:~at he has lived in Anaheim for about 12 years, but is
concecned about commercial propecty being constructed adjacent to private
residences; and that he was told it would be a single-stocy shopping
center when he purchased his property and he also paid a premium for a
view lot and with this approval, he felt there would be some devaluatior
of his ptoperty values. He pcesented photographs of the 3-story building
being built to the east of subject pr.operty at the presenc time a,~d
stated he is concerned about that building being built and this one
because of air-conditioning equipment, noise, sun ref.lecting from the
windows and that he felt the amount that would be reflected back into the
houses could be a problem.
Mr. Yarnovich stated the staff report refPCS to waivers previously
granted, and it appeacs the approval of variances is an accepted thing.
He stated the staff report talks about the housing adjacent to the
ptoposed project and he felt there could be a problem with reflection
from this building stiining into people's houses and thought there could
be a concentcation of solac energy. He stated the staff report indicates
there are no significant environmental impacts and he would question that
coinment and that waivers requested means making changes to something that
was established for the good of all.
Mr. Yarnovich stated Code does not permit air-conditioning on the roofs,
but they ar.e praposing air-conditionin9 on the roofs here and he felt
noise wilJ be a big pcoblem. He stated this is suppose to be a Scenic
Corridor, but it will not be scenic after these buildings are in; and
that the Code requires a 100-foot setback on Santa Ana Canyon Road and
they ace proposing 20 feet, and a di£fetence of 80 feet is quite large
and this will result in a tunnel effect with a large hill on the other
side. He st-ated he would ask that the residen~s of Anaheim be treated a,
well as the developer who does not live in the area. lie stated an
individual homeowner who wants to build anithing on his property has to
comply with the Codes and the same rules should apply to the dev~loper.
Mr. Idalmquist stated the building to the east is under construction right
now and agreed it is not a very good building; howeve~, this building
will be prima~ily brick with blue high-pecformance glass on the south
property line and it will have extensive landscaping and when finished
will have an almost park-like effect.
Mr. Malmquist stated they are not wo~ried about the reflective glass
causing a heat build-up foc a property that is 30Q to 400 feet away. He
stated the highest point of the bui.lding is 39 feet and it is set back
about 40 feet from the south end of the building and will have a br?ck
exterior and the neighbors will see a beautiful building.
Mr. Genzel stated the 130-foot easement granted by the previous property
owner severely impacts the location of the building un the property and
that is the reason for the requested waivers. He stated they do not
4/28/86
MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING CUMMISSION, APRIL 28, 1986 86-293
believe it will create a tunnel effect and they would like to have it as
far away from Santa Ana Canyon Road as possible and pointed out this
building will be their corporate headquarters and they want it as nice as
possible.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Mr. Malmquist responded to Chairwoman La Claire that they are not
familiar with any problems with reflectiv~ glass and explained this wil:
be high-performance, low-reflective blus glass and it is not like the
mirror panels seen on other buildings.
Chairwoman La Claire stated that area is zoned £or this kind of
development and that the Commission has tried everything possible to
protect the property owners in the area. She stated the petitioners are
requesting two waivers for signs and one for the setback and that she is
worcied about the requested waivers, but that that area has been planned
for a long time and actually, this use as an office build:ng would have a
lower impact on the neighborhood than a commercial development because of
the traffic and because they are closed in the evenings.
Chairwoman La Claire referred to the development to the east with a
20-foot setback and asked if that was supposed to be tiered building
along Santa Ana Canyon Road to prevent a tunnel-like effect along Santa
Ana Canyon Road. Mr. Malmquist stated this building is tiered also and
this building will have the same relationship to the street as that
building and stated this property is much lower than the property to the
east. Chairwoman La Claire stated she thought that building was to be
1-sto=y adjacent to Santa Ana Canyon Road, with Mr. Malmquist stating
that buildina to the east is compietely 3 stocies.
The Commission reviewed the plans for the properY.y to the east and
Chairwoman La Claire stated that property is lower than the street.
Mr. Yarnov~.~h stated driving on Sar.ta Ana Canyon Road, the entire
bui'lding is visible with Chairwoman La Claire stating again she thought
that building was co be stepped Lack in order to alleviate the impact on
Santa Ana Canyon Road. t9r. Malmquist clarified that building is angled
towards Santa M a Canyon Road, but is actually a 3-story building
adjacent to Santa Ana Canyon Road.
Mr. Yarnovich stated there is a problem with 3ranting these variances
because the Commission cannot envision the development from sketches and
suggested scale models should be submitted so it can be clearly seer, what
effect they ate goin9 to have whea the building is actually constructed
before approving the variances, especially in the hills.
It was clarified that submitted photographs were taken from the
neighbor's oatio and that a 3-story building is what is seen.
Chairwoman La Claire stated she feels a mistake was made when approval
foc the adjacent property was granted and added, she feels these building
4/28/86
MINUTES~ ANAHEIM CZTY PLANNING COMMISSION, APRIL 28~ 1986 86-294
are going to have an overpowecing impact going down Sants Ana Canyon
Road. She stated she really thought xhen she voted in favor of the
adjacent building, it would be stepped back from Santa Ana Caryon Road.
She stated she is not saying she felt the setback should be 100 feet for
this building, but it certainly should be mare than 20 feet, as proposed.
Mr. Malmquist responded ~o Commissioner Messe that tne building could not
be moved to the northwest and turned because of access and circulation
problems.
Concerning noise from air-conditioning, Mr. htalmquist stated that would
not be a problem and pointed out the towec element in the front was
designed as pact of the arc}iitectural design to house that equipment.
Commissioner Herbst stated this is a Planned Community and this pr.operty
was planned for commercial uses with homes across the street and
unfortunately, teal estate developers sell view lots and charge h.igher
premiums for a view that is there at the time and do not mention future
developments. He stated that has occucred in the hills and canyon ail
along and that the City has no control over the fact the person paid for
a view lot and a property owner does have the right to build on their own
propecty. He stated this developer has given a lot of pr.operty to the
City for street widening foc the benefit of the people who live the:e and
thece was a setback appcoved on the adjacent property.
Jay Titus stated he thought befote development occ~rred in that area
there was an open channel for drainage and it was very wide and the storm
~rain has been put underground in an enclosed facility which is existing;
however, he was not suce of the size of that faciliiy, but that it was
probably considerably less than the 130-foot easement requiced.
Cortimissionec Herbst stated if the easement could be reduced, the
configuration of the building could be changed. Commissioner McBucney
stated he would offer a motion for a two-week continuance in ocder for
the developer to check with the City staff and als~ redesign the plans to
move the building away from Santa Ana Canyon Road if the easement for 130
feet is not necessary.
Commissioner Messe seconded the motion foc a two-~eek continuance.
Malcolm Slau9hter stated if there is a request for the abandonment of a
City easement, there i.s a formal abandonment process which could take
longer than the two weeks and further explained it would orobably take up
to two months to process that type of abandonment. Chairwoman La Claire
stated if it is determined that the easement could be reduced by
abandonment, then there is a possibility that the building could be mcved
slightly which would benefit both the community and the developec and it
would be a much better project.
4/28/86

Commissioner Hecbst suggested a two-week continuance in order for the
applicant to review the situation with the City and then if additional
continuances is needed, it could be cequested at that time.
Chairwoman La Claire stated she thought the building should be moved as far
away as possible from Santa Ana Canyon Road.

MINUTES~ ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSZON, APRIL 28, 1966 86-299
Glenn Wise, Project Director, Pacific Agri~or Corpocation, 1090 Talbert
Avenue, Fountain Valley, stated they have parchased pcoperty formerly owned by
Warner Lambert at 5115 E. La Palma and plan to move their headquartecs and
composite material manufacturing operation to that facility and just found ovt
about these plans for a hotel which would be across the street from their
industrial facilities and that concerns ~hem vecy much. He stated they had
planned foc quite an expansion of their operation with 400 to 500 employees
working there and this would be their United States headquartprs. He stated
they want to stay in an industrial a~ea.
Mt. Wise stated this is a nice neighborhood; however, there is a difference
between a hotel environment and an industrial environment and they will be
operating 24 haurs a day, seven days a week and there will be trucks and
people in and out of the area at all hours of the day and night and he did not
think this would be a good location for a mixture of residential type uses and
industrial uses. He stated they are in the stage of engineecing right now and
plan to move their operation by March of next year and asked the Commission to
reconsider allowing this type of use in the indusr.rial area.
Ward Goodrum, Quintec Manufacturing, 4950 E. La Palma, stated they have been
in this location for S years and have been operating 24 hours a day on three
shifts and are also concerned about combining residential type uses with
indnstrial uses and they have traffic problems in the area now. He stated
they have noise fcom L-he heavy equipment and thought that would be disruptive
to the hotel and their equipment includes heavy pcesses, treater towers, steam
generators, etc. an~ the equipment is installed in hea~~y ^oncrete facilities
dug into the ground which would make it very difficult for them to relocate
and they can see problems with people trying to sleep at night. He stated the
noise they make is acceptable in an industrial area, but felt they would be
forced to relocate if this hotel is allowed because it is a residential use.
Ed Kinney, Thorobred Racing Plate Co. Inc., 502~, 5014 and 5010 East La Palma,
stated their propecty is immediately adjacent to subject property. He
explained he received a notice of this hearing on the 21st and has not had
time to really prepare his presentation and would requESt a continuance, but
would agree with what the othec opposition has said regarding the impact on
their operation because tney also have a manufactuting business which operates
23 hours a day with 50 employees and they have been there since 1969 and moved
thece in order to be in a manufacturing area and hoped the area will continue
~o be industrial.
Mr. Tolar stated this is not a typical hotel and is designed specifically for
industrial areas; and that hotels do not have a zone and must have a
conditional use permit; and that this is a 3-story, 200-unit building designed
foc people who must 9o into high tech aceas and are not just visiting Anaheim
as tourists and they stay for three or four days or even a week or longer and
some work in the area.
He stated this hotel would enhance the businesses of all those people who
spoke in opposition and pointed out they are not asking for any signing from
the freeway and are not looking for drop-in traffic. He stated breakfast will
4~26/86
MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSION, APRIL 28, 1986 86-300
be secved as part of the package and there will be on-sale alcoholic beverages
for the people who stay in the hotel. He stated they feel this would be an
asset to those companies in the area; and that the Hardage Corporation has 12
facilities thtoughout the country and have three more under construction and
they want to locate in high-tech industrial areas. He stated instead of
creating additional traffic problems along La Palma, this hotel would reduce
traffic because people who come to the hotel to do business with the firms in
the area need to have a place to stay, and would not have to commute back and
focth to where the hotels are located.
Concerning nuise, Mr. Tolac stated these hotels were designed specifically to
be in these high-tech industrial areas where facilities are operating 24 hours
a day and they want to be a good neighboc in the industrial area and this
suite-type concept is not new to the industrial sites. He stated he
undecstands the opposition's cor.cerns and that he personally would not be
representing this company if he thought it would be a detriment to the City of
Anaheim.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
Responding to Chairwoman La Claire, Mc. Tolar stated he has not had a chance
to talk with the neighbors and he was not awace of any opposition until right
now. Responding to Commissionec Bouas regarding kitchens, Mr. Tolar explained
there will be 92 kitchen units. He stated a major corporation genecally will
lease this type building and only 15 to 208 of the kitchens will be used. He
stated they will be willing to stipulate that no one will be in any one of
these units for over 30 days and that the kitchen only makes it convenient for
the people who stay there, rather than having to go out to eat all thei~
meals, especially in an ind~stcial area.
Commissioner Fry returned to the meeting at 4:10 p.m.
Bill Vickrey, Executive Vice President Hardage, explained the kitchen has a
4-burner stove and the units are designed foc the customer who would stay a
few days and would probably stay not more than a week. He stated it has been
their experience that the kitchens ace rarely used.
Commissioner Bouas stated probably the next request for the industrial area
will be fot a foo~ macket because it is quite a distance to any market where
food can be pur<:hased to be cooked in the kitchens. She stated it looks like
they are plann~ng a facility where if it does not wotk out as proposed, xt can
be used for a different purpose.
Mr. Tolar stated the applicant is willing to stipulate that no one •.aill be in
the units for moce than 30 days.
Chairwoman La Claite stated the petitionec did not know that there was any
opposition and she would sug9est a continuance in ordet for the developer to
meet with the neighbors.
EIr. Tolac asked if it would be possible to hear from the opposition now since
they have heacd the concept of this Q~oQosal.

MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSION, APRIL 28, 1986 86-301
Ch:irwoman La Claire ce-openPd the public hearing.
Malcolm Slaughter pointed out the City has a transient occupancy tax which
would apply to the occupar.cy of this facility. Mr. Tolar stated they are
awate of all conditions oz fees.
Annira Santalahti stated there is no Code cequirement pertaining to the ratio
of kitchen units, but that is a Planning Commission policy.
Mt. Goodrum stated he has not heard anything that would change his mind ana
felt they would have restrictions put on their manufacturing operation later,
especially if this doesn't work out as proposed for the hotel. He stated he
would be happy to discuss this with the petitioner and if they can assure him
that they are protected to run their business in the manner they planned when
they purchased the property five years ago, he would not have any objections.
Chairwoman La Claire stated that is exactly what she would want to see because
there ace problems now with encroachments i~to the industrial area.
tdr. Goodrum stated the customers from the high-t~,.~ fields they seem to want
to attract are not the same type of customers they have in their operztion.
He stated they are there as manufacturing comp nies and not high-tech
companies and the people who work there ace no~t the type of patrons this hotel
would want to attract and there are other motels in the area for the
occasional visitors.
Mr. Wise stated he did learn about this operation, but still has the same
concerns and if they had seen this establishment in the area when they were
looking for tr.is property, they probably would not have looked as closely
because they would have been concerned about restrictions in the future and if
they had a choice, they would not have considered this area with this tyge of
establishment. He stated they ate a large company, and while this hotel may
start out with 9ood intentions and the whole concept does sound good, things
do change and there are places where hotels could be built, not that far away
from this atea. He stated L•hey are concerned, but he has not heard anything
which would significantly change his mind. He stated manufacturing operations
have a lot of heavy trucks going in and out and they do make noise and there
could be dust problems, etc. from the operation which people relaxing by the
pool would not like.
Mr. Kinney stated he would still request a continuance on this. He stated
once this is approved, he is concerned there will be more requests in ~he
future for similar uses in the industrial area and that area is unique and he
felt it would be difficult to police their own operation if this is approved.
Mr. Tolar explained the pool is in a center court to eliminate air pollution
and noise. He stated he is concerned, being a resident of Anaheim himself,
about the break-down of the industrial area, but did not think this would
break it down and did not think there will be requests for food markets in the
industrial area and thought this would be a compatible use.
4/28/86
MINUTES, ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSION APRIL 28, 1986 86-302
Chairwoman La Claire stated the petitioner needs to talk to the people in the
area and she would also want more information about this concept, how it is
used in other cities, where it is located in other cities and what k'~ds of
clients are attracted to those hotels in other citier. She stat?d sh•~ knows
most pharmaceutical companies need places for people to stay.
Commissioner Herbst stated he is an industrialist and has been i~ this area
for about 40 years and that certain commercial uses have been allowed in the
industtial area, such as banks, which are intended to service the industrial
area and that possibly a properly designed hotel could service tlte
industrialists and would be acceptable. He stated if some inYOrmation could
be presented such as where the other hotels ace located, with possibly let~ers
from the industrial establishments around the hotel as to how they use the
facilities, would be helpful to the Commission and to the opposition. He
stated there ate cerEain areas on I.a Palma whece some quasi-commercial uses
have been allowed and there are some uses which the Council has granted which
he did ~ot approve of, but if they service the industrial area, they would be
acceptable.
Chairwoman La Claite stated l•he petitioner needs to make sure the neighbors
understand fully the concept and how this will benefit their businesses and
how it will affect their operations.
Mr. Tolar stated he did not think they could satisfy everyone's concerns, but
that he would furnish additional information.
Commissioner Herbst stated he has been forced to move previously because of
encroachments into the industrial area and he does use big presses which make
a lot of noise and knows that it is what the neighbors are concerned about.
He stated there are large corpotations which rent large blor_ks of cooms and
this may be an acceptable plan.
Commissioner Messe stated he is a business owner on La Palma and is concerned
about enctoachments on the manufacturing and industrial users, but could live
with a use wl~ich services the industrial community. He stated the petitioner
should work with the neighbocs because they have not had an opportunity to
ceview the plans and should be given that opportunity.
ACTION: Commissioner Herbst offeced a motion, seconded by Commissioner
McBUrney and MOTION CARRIED that consideration of the aforementioned matter be
continued to the regularly-scheduled meeting of May 12, 1966, at the cequest
of the petitioner.
Mr. Goodrum asked for information about the other hotels so he could verify
the information as submitted by the petitionec. He stated he was not sure two
weeks would be adequate time for the petitioner to get the information to them
and give them time to verify it.
Chairwoman La Claire stated a two-week continuance would be sufficient and
then if additional time is needed, they can request it.
Commissioner Herbst left the Council Chambe~.
