WI~REAS, a request had been made for reclassification of two single family homes
located on the easi; side of State College Boulevard in the conter of the block bounded
on the north by Virginia Avenue and on the south by South Street for commercial purposes
whioh could have an effect on the residential and commercial potential of the adjoining
properties; and
W:~REAS, the City Plenning Commission did initiate a public hearing held in the City
Fiall in the City of Anaheim on March 19, 1973 at 2:00 o'clock P.M., notice c~ said public
hearing having been duly given as required bg law and in accordance with the provisions
of the Anahein Muniuipal Code, to hear and consi.der evidence for and against said pro-
po~ed area develorment plan and to investigate and make findings and recommendations in
connection therFwith; and
WHEREAS, said Commission, after due inspection, investigation, and study made by it-
tielf and in its behalf, and after due consideration of a11 evidence and regorts offer•ed
at ~aid hearing, does find and dei;ermine the folloviing facts:
1. That commercial zoning and development had occurred ~o the north and south
vrithin this same block along State College Boulevard, leaving 7 parcels in
the center still developed with single fttmily residences.
2. That State College Boulevarc~ a primary arterial highway,presently carries approxi-
mately 34,188 vehicles per de~y and is projected to carry approximately 44,600
vehicles per day vrithin ten years, although the traffic er~gineer had indicated
that when the oroposed Orange Freeway was built, the number of vehicles could
be cut in half.
3. That access rights to State College Boulevard had not been dedicated to the City
of Anaheim for these lots, although there was no di•rect access from State College
3oulevard for the seven parcels, and secondary access was provided in the form
of a standard 20-foot dedicated alley from whiah these seven parcels took access
to their garages.
4. That three alternatives wsre presented with Exhibit "A",indicating one or two
standard 20-foot alley roturns to State College Boulevard, and if this alterna-
tive were adopted,the traffic engineer recommended that they be offset from direct
alignment with the existing east-west alley to the east or the local streets across
State College Boulevard; Exhibit "B" indicated one to three evenly-spaced pri.vate
vehicular access drives to State College Boulevard, although the traffio engineer
indicated that if this alternative wer.e adopted these c'.rives should bo offset from
direct alignment with the local streets across 5tete Co'llege Boulevard; and that
Exhibit "C" indicates the existing elley between Virgi.nia Avenue and South Street
would continus to be utilized as the primary source of vehioular access to the
parking areas at the rear or side of the various properties, and if this exhibit
were adopted~the traffic engineer indicated that this would be the most preferable
because it did not present any traf~ic conflicts to Ste.te College Eoulevard.
5. That land assembly ~vould appear to be the best alternative to usage of these parcels.
6. That i~he Planning Commission determined that Exhibit "C;' would more adequately
serve the needs of these soven parcels since it would present fewer traffic con-
flicts to the State College BouJ_ev~.rd traffic.
7. That two property owners of three parcels appeared to presont their viewpoints
on the area development plan.
