REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS:
A. BODE AMENDMENT NO 85.04 PERTAINING TO Continued to
MQBILEHOME PARKS AND DISPLACED MOBILEHOME 5-15'95
QWNER: Requested by City Attorney's Office, 200 S. Anaheim
Boulevard, P,naheim 92805. To delete and amend code sections
pertaining to mobtlehome parks, defining displaced mobilehome owners
and amending wording pertaining to relocation benefits.
Continued from the February 22, March 6, and Apol 3, 1995 Planning
Commission meetings.
Commissioner Bostwick declared a conflict of interest.
Selma Mann, Deputy City Attorney, explained this matter was continued at the Planning
Commission's request in order to have time to review it and to review a sample ordinance that
was prepared for a mobilehome owner's group to see ff there were options that might be
applicable to Anaheim's ordinance.
Vicki Talley, representing owners of Anaheim mobilehome parks as Executive Director of the
:~ Manufactured Housing Educational Trust, stated she has been before the Commission
commenting on the proposed amendments; however, ft has so long now she wanted to restate
their objections.
The first abjsction is to the definition of a'misplaced mobilehome owner' and they notice there
has not been any modification to the wording. Their concern is that the definition is that
anyone living in a mobilehome park at the time of the notification would be considered a
displaced mobilehome owner. The reason for that definition is that later on in the ordinance,
there are benefits that would be given to a misplaced mobilehome owner. Certain people living
in the park at the time of the notice should not receive those benefits. Those would be the
people who default on rent, people who have defaulted on their mortgage and in that case
many of those people abandon their coaches. She stated they had previously asked that staff
consider inserting verbiage in the proposed amendment that would acknowledge that those
people who were not current with the rent and residents in good standing sho~~ld not receive
relocation benefits. They still hope that the Commission would incl~,sde that ff tl,ls amendment
is adopted.
Commissioner Messe stated there are alternative ways to take care of that problem and the
owner has a recourse through the courts ff a person had defaulted on the rents.
Ms. Talley stated recently it took well over a year for a park to close, and according to this
definition, someone living in the park when that notice was given would be considered
04/1%/95

ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSION, ACTION AGENDA
displaced owners. Many people failed to pay their rent and had been evicted and she thought
based on this definition, some people would say they lived in that park and was a reskleM on
the date of the notification and, there dOr~nhtould gheirhmo Bagel and abandonrs the home, they
think that is appropriate. • If a perso paY
should not be entitled to relocation benefits, as well.
Chairwoman Boydstun asked ff Ms. Talley is referring to people who were in arrears when the
notice was gNen and i~ the process of being evicted when the notice was given.
Ms. Talley responded ft doesn't matter either way.
Commissioner Messe stated the owner has another recourse to collect the rent and that should
not be a part of this ordinance.
Ms. Talley responded the recourse is 'eviction" and that costs several thousand dollars and she
felt they should not be defined as a'displaced owner' if they have been evicted. She added
the Issue is the payment of the benefit to a reskient that is in good standing and it is not to
collect the rent. She explained when a person is evicted, they do not pay the rent.
Ms. Talley stated another issue they have with the amendments is in terms of the relocation
bonus from the park they are moving to. She stated a pari. owner will pay them to move Into
their park and this amendment is proposing that the amount paid would be offset from the
relocation cost, but ~: does it in a different way than the rest of the ordinance. The rest of the
ordinance talks about average relocation costs to move to an average mobilehome out of the
park and into a comparable mobilehome park. This would be putting in a different definition
and subtracting the amount paid by the park they move to, not from the average costs, but
from the"actual' costs and also the amount paid cannot be included in determining the avments
relocation costs. She stated using the resident's examples, all the residents received pay
from the park they were moving to and they object to that in this amendment. She stated the
'average costs' should be considered and not the 'actual costs'. She also stated in five years
that provision in the ordinance may not be relevant because the parks may not be paying
relocation bonuses.
Commissioner Messe noted some of the benefds are actually reductions in rent for the
mobilehome owner moving into the park.
Commissioner Peraza stated he would agree that the tenant not in good standing and not
paying the rent should not receive the benefRS. He asked if there is some way that could be
Included in the amendment.
Commissioner Henninger stated the Commission has seen how the loop holes In the existing
ordinance were really used against the interest of the mobilehome owners and that he is shy
about putting loop holes in the ordinance which may be used in ways not envisioned today.
He thought the residents in the recent park closure got severely burned because of some of
04/17/95

ANAHEIM CITY PIANNiNG COMMISSION, ACTION AGENDA AprU 17, 199.`'
the loop holes in the City's ordinance and that wasn't right. (Ms. Talley objected to that
statement and he added that Ms. Talley is well on the record not agreeing with that statement.)
Chairwoman Boydstun stated maybe something should be induded that,ff.they.were.ln_default
and the eviction proceedings had been started before the notification was given, then they
would be excluded from the relocation benefits.
Selma Mann suggested that possibly both Issues cou'er~ `esoiv~ ~ Beo~~un er~ sion that
any relocation benefits may be offset against unpa.d
Commissioner Messe both agreed that would be a better solution.)
whenmheiperson wouldsbe foedoue a o had abandonedetheucoach, leaving eopark nces
owner with the responsibility.
Commissioner Henninger referred to people in the park that was recently dosed and who for
many reasons could not afford to move and it made sense to keep the park rent current and
not make their mortgage payments. He added the ordinance just addresses relocation and
does not address the issue of people who could not relocate and were totally wiped out
financially. He felt that whole issue needs to be carefully reviewed to cure it, rather than trying
to punish those people more by adjustments to this ordinance.
Chairwoman Messe stated it has to be based on the rent owed to the park owner and it has
~' nothing to do with the mortgage on the coach.
Chairwoman Boydstun stated maybe they should be exempt from the benefits ff they had
received an eviction notice before getting the notice of park dosure. She stated ff they are in
foreclosure, they should not be able to come back and claim the benefit.
Commissioner Henninger stated ff they were in the process of foredosure on that date, they
should be excluded, but the people who were forced out because of the dosure should not be
exduded.
Selma Mann asked ff the Commission is interested in some sort of offset in the unpakl
mortgage and the response was 'no' from several Commissioners.
Commissioner Henninger stated ff the owner had a recorded notice of default on that date, then
they would not be considered a displaced owner.
Ms. Talley suggested adding a sentence that this benefd does not apply to any person who is
not current in the payment of rent or anyone who has abandoned their coach or been evicted
from the park.
Chairwoman Boydstun stated regarding Section .0402 that there should be a 'not to exceed"

number of days and Commissioners Messe and Peraza felt ft should be no more than 10 days.
Commissioner Henninger referred to moving and storage of fumfture and personal belongings
separately from the.coach,-wanting to be sure that is induded.
ra ra h on page A12-13 which says what the
Commissioner Messe stated there is a good pa 9 P
relocation costs shall consist of and he thought that paragraph, except the last part, covers
almost everything that has been discussed and that the "not to exceed 10 days" could be
added. He darffied that he would also like to see the telephone, electrical and utiifties services
and fees to be included.
Commissioner Henninger stated the landscape and site Improvements should be compensated
for the greater of average improvement that is being abandoned at the existing park or the
average of the newly required improvements (whichever is greater) and that includes
landscaping and flatwork (hardscape) and ft addresses the average of the original park and the
average of the new park and would be added to the relocation beneffts.
Commissioner Henninger referred to the comment on relocation bonuses and stated he
thought that ft should be offset against the average relocation benefits instead of actual costs
and he thought the average relocation benefft should be subtracted from the average relocation
costs.
`~ Selma Mann stated on a case by case basis, if someone received a relocation benefit, (s the
Commission discussing any type of benefft? (Commissioners Henninger and Messe answered
ft should be a cash bonus.)
Ms. Mann asked that this matter be continued for at least four weeks in order that the proposed
Code Amendment can be redrafted.
ACTION: The matter was continued to the meeting of May 15, 1995.

The Commission has been entrusted with the public's welfare and they hope that the Commission will
terminate the conditional use permit on this property. The public trust has been broken by the owners
and proprietors of the Ruby Inn. A minor fine would be an unsuitable penalty. If the Commission
decided to modify the CUP with modffications, they must assure the residents that sufficient Code

Mr. Poole stated staff has prepared a comprehensive staff report regarding this matter and that he will

present a brief overview.
He stated as the Commission and the people who have spoken today are well aware, the City is very
concerned about Beach Boulevani and the Ruby Inn is the worst motel in the area. ~He.explained he
asked for a copy of the Police Department statistics for all the motels located along Beach Boulevard
and ftom January 1, 1993, to September 1, 1994, the Ruby Inn has had more calls for services in this
area with 508 calls for services requested and 129 crimes that actually occurred at that property.
He continued Code Enforcement will be reviewing other motels in that area. The Ruby Inn is the first
being brought to the Commission. Staff agrees that an inordinate amount of City services, including
Police and Code Enforcement, are being spent in thls area and that there are also health and safety
concerns in this area.
They attempted to work with the previous owners of this property and suggested ways to curb the
illegal drug activities and prostitution and other illegal activities that were occurring. Unfortunately, that
owner did not pay any heed to those conversations. The new owner, seems to be willing to work with
staff and staff has put together some conditions that would protect that area. If those don't wo but he
there are other conditions that can be imposed or they will come back and request termination,
thought at this time the modifications with these conditions will work.

disturbances, fights, thefts and
services, narcotic sales and use, prostitution activities, assaults,
burglaries. During that meeting, the Police Department recommended ways and offered to help the
Ruby Inn correct these problems and once again become an asset to the community. The problems
at the Ruby Inn continued and ft was felt the owners were either not willing to or were unable to
correct their numerous problems. This caused Vice Detail tfi file a'red light abatement' against the
property. The red light abatement is a civil process in v~ ~~.... he Police Department can bring the

He related various undercover operations relating to prostitution and drugs resulting in arrest warrants.
The people arrested either lived in the motel cr Just came onto the parking lot to conduct their
activities. This is a drain on the PcSice Department.
He stated the Anaheim Pclice Department is hopeful that the new conditions placed on the motel can
be monitored by the Police Department and Code Enforcement and can actually make the Ruby Inn a
positive force in the community again, therefore, not using so many valuable Police resources.

On April 12, 1994, Code Enforcement and Police staff met with owners (Mr. & Mrs. McBride) and they
were informed of on-going violations of the Code and Uniform Housing Codes and criminal activities
occurring on their property. They were advised to take more aggressive maintenance procedures and
suggested they hire security and also that the City of Anaheim would provide some security lighting at
no cost to them. On May 23, 1994, 14 security lights were installed and February 22, 1995, Cie

On April 7, 1995, they met with the current owners and suggested some overall conditions which will
some oflthe requestsrand the owner fs veryrcooperative and wants torwork w1Mh t e City tomesdve the
problems.
~" John Poole stated the Anaheim Municipal Code outlines certain findings that have to be made in order
to modify or terminate a conditional use permit. Staff is recommending this CUP be modified because
the use has been so exercised as to be detrimental to the public health or safety, or so as to
constitute a nuisance; and that the use has been exercised contrary to terms or conditions of such
approval, or in violation of any statute, ordinance, law or regulation.
He read the recommended conditions (Nos. I through 11) as outlined on pages 7 and 8 of the staff
report, modifying Condition No. 1 to read that a uniformed security guard be provided from noon until
3:00 a.m. rather than at all times.
Mr. Poole stated this will bring more control over this particular property and that he understood the
people's concerns; this is a new owner. If the Commission terminated the use permit, the building
would still be there as a vacant building. He thought this is the mast prudent way to go fonNard, but
that Code Enforcement will be very watchful of what is going on with this motel and other motels in
Enforcemenfttwill be right back to the Comml fission with thisnmatter recommend ng termpnatonm, Code
Commissioner Messe stated when Ms. Greenberg spoke she indicated her presentation was written
before she saw the staff report.
Ms. Greenberg stated they would probably agree they do not want a vacant building where people
04/17/95
Page 20
ANAHEIM CITY PLANNING COMMISSION, ACTION AGENDA AprU 17, 1995
could congregate and find empty rooms. They really want a solution to this problem. She indicated
she is not speaking for everyone at this point but felt this is a reasonable solution as long as there is
continual monftoring. She was concerned about the security being there only from nocn untU
3:00 a.m. and the original~condition proposed a uniformed security guard at all times. She asked why
not have security guards there 24 hours a day for the first year. She stated they feel a security guard
should be there all day and pointed out the activities still go on in the early morning hours.
Sgt. Walker stated Ms. Greenberg has a valid point and the reason they agreed to the hour of 3:00
a.m. was the cost factor. That could be changed or they could monftor it for awhile and ff it is
determined a 24-hour armed security guard is needed, that could be done.
Commissioner Messe stated ff there is a security guard there for four months for 24 hours a day and
then reduced to from noon to 3:00 a.m., that would help eliminate the problem.
Commissioner Henninger stated instead of specffying a time, the condition could read 'as specified by
hours a day in~he beg nn ng would eenteeded andemaybe lesslff thee is an Improvem nt~~y 24
Sgt. Walker stated he could take care of that and that he would stop in frequently and he would get a
lot of feedback from other officers.
Commissioner ~-lenninger stated generally when there is a troublesome use, there is a time limit
J imposed fin the cc,~~~litional use permit and suggested maybe this is a use where a one year time Iimft
is needed.
Selma Mann stated the Commission can Impose any conditions deemed appropriate when a matter is
before it for modffication or revocation. It appears the owner is very cooperative and it is really up to
the Commission. Ordinarily she would have concerns about having an existing use that has no
termination provision on it being substituted by one with a termination provision. if the Commission
wants to impose a time 11mit, they should make some very strong findings relating to the increased
criminal activities on the premises and things of that nature to justify that decision. a~ematively, the
Commission may want to have a report in the future.
Commissioner Messe stated it sounds like there will be a lot of attention paid to this site by Code
Enforcement and the Police Department. He noted it took a year to get this matter before the
Commission and there is a list ~f other motels to be reviewed in that area.
Commissioner Henninger stated generally for uses a lot less troublesome than this, time limits
imposed.
Commissioner Peraza suggested an 18-month time limit and then bring it back for reviE~r.

Commissioner Peraza stated Code Enforcement will be making monthly inspections and he was sure
the Commission will be getting reports. The CUP could be limited to 18 months and he would like to
have that time limit imposed.
He stated he would like a requirement that a guest has to complete a registration card and advising
them that fhe registration card is open to inspection by the Anaheim Police Department and other City
personnel for enforcement purposes.
Commissioner Bostwick agreed the CUP should be limited to 18 months. He asked Mr. Poole if there
is any restrictions as to the Ilmit on occupancy, referring to the testimony today regarding the shhod
children and multiple families living in one room. He asked if there is any way we can require that
there should be no more people than the number of beds available so there would not be 2 or 3
families living in one room.
Mr. Poole stated staff has tracked state law regarding occupancy and the occupancy in those motel
rooms is governed by the Unfform Housing Code which is somewhat liberal regarding the number of
people living in the unit. The well-managed motels can limit the number of people in one room. A lot
of the motels do violate the Uniform Housing Codes and a lot depends on inspections and
management practices. He added that is hard to enforce, but systematic inspections and good
managament practices are good ways to control it.
Commissioner Bostwick asked ff the new owner is willing to stipulate to all of these conditions.
~~" Commissioner Peraza asked if there are only two Code Enforcement Officers assigned to that area.
Mr. Poole stated there are only two officers in the area west of Euclid; however, hopefully, July 1st
some Community Development Block Grant funding can be used to put another officer in that area
and part of a supervisor's time. Code Enforcement will be working on Brovesthe re ommendations,
Brookhurst Corridor on certain problems such as this. If City Council app

OPPOSITION: None
Jonathan Borrego, Senior Planner, explained this requeit~wa n from la rode byownerlwnonwanted to
Commission. In December last year, there was an appl P P nY
legftimize a bonus room which had been converted in the second story which was originally approved
as an attic area. It was determined that this area had somo restrictions Imposed when those tracts
were originally approved in the early 70's which staff felt were not necessary. Staff reviewed those
tracts affected by that variance and noYrfied the property owners and people within 300 feet. Based on
the research, staff would recommend that those restrictions in Variance No. 2375 be deleted. Any
development which takes place, or addftions, or modifications that take place would be subject to the
rules of the RS-7200 Code which are applied citywide.
ACTION: Determined that the previously approved negative declaration is adequate to serve as
the required environmental documentation for subject request.
