161.157: JOINT PUBLIC HEARING BETWEEN COUNCIL /AGENCY/COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT
COMMISSION TO CONSIDER THE PROPOSED PLAZA REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT:
Mayor /Councilman Hunter called to order the Joint Session of the Community
Redevelopment Commission, Anaheim Redevelopment Agency and City Council noting
that the Members of the City Council also sit as Members of the Redevelopment
Agency. The purpose of the Session is to conduct the subject Joint Public
Hearing.
COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION MEMBERS PRESENT: Doug Renner, Robert Doty,
Donna Berry, Steve Bristol, Bob Anthony and Fernando Olivares
ABSENT: Paul McMillan
Co- Chairman, Community Redevelopment Commission (CRC), Donna Berry called to
order the Commission and also introduced each Member of the Commission for
audience information as requested by the Mayor.
Mayor /Chairman Hunter then introduced Lisa Stipkovich, Director of Community
Development for the City of Anaheim, to provide the background relative to the
proposed Plaza Redevelopment Project.
Lisa Stipkovich, Director of Community Development. -on"
Prior to giving the overview to the redevelopment process, she
is going to address a neighborhood flyer that was distributed in
the area yesterday or today west of the proposed project area.
The flyer claims that the proposed redevelopment project
includes the redesignation of two areas; the parking lot on
Loara Street between Price Elementary School and Westmont (the
Loara site), and the Cal Fed parking lot between Euclid and the
post office (Cal Fed site) as medium density housing which
allows 18 to 20 apartments per acre without a further public
notice. The anonymous author either was provided erroneous
information or is attempting to mislead the community.
A redevelopment plan does not change permitted land uses. Only
general plan amendments, zoning ordinances and zoning
amendments, adopted after a properly noticed public hearing, can
change permitted land uses. The Cal Fed site is identified in
the General Plan and in the proposed redevelopment Plan as
commercial and not residential and it is consistent with its
current use which is commercial. The portion of the Loara site
fronting on Loara is currently designated medium density
residential in the General Plan which allows up to 36 units per
acre. The redevelopment Plan recommends an alternate land use
subject to subsequent amendment to the General Plan and zoning
ordinances a reduction in density to low medium which would
allow up to 18 units per acre.
The back portion or the one closest to the neighborhood to the
east is designated low- density residential under the General
Plan allowing up to 6 units per acre. The proposed
90 -45
M
Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
June 5. 1990. 5:20 P.M.
Redevelopment Plan makes no suggestion to an alternate use and
would be consistent with the General Plan in allowing for a low
density residential use. That site is currently zoned
commercial (later further explained that it is zoned RSA - 43,000)
and any change in zoning would require notification of all
property owners within 300 feet whether or not in the
redevelopment project area. Perhaps some of the confusion was
caused by the post office site which is identified in the
General Plan which is commercial and that the post office in the
alternate land use would be identified as low medium residential
use allowing up to 18 units per acre. That would require a
general plan amendment, an additional public hearing and an
amendment to the current zoning. It is a federal use and they
would have to determine whether or not they would like to move
out of the area some time in the future. That is a future
possibility and it is not proposed. She emphasized the
redevelopment action they are asking for tonight in no way
changes any land uses. The adoption of the Redevelopment Plan
would be to form the boundaries of a redevelopment project area
and create the financing mechanism known as tax increment. Any
future land use changes would require public hearings and
notification of all surrounding property owners.
Mrs. Stipkovich then gave a presentation on the history and
background of the project and the reasons for undertaking the
project. The area has been under consideration for some time.
There are many problems and deficiencies in the area, both
economic and physical, identified throughout the proposed plaza
redevelopment project area. The declining and economically
declining plaza shopping center has ranked near the bottom of
all regional centers in Southern California in terms of sales
productivity. In addition, there are many other problems
throughout the area - inadequate infrastructure, inadequate
sewer and storm drain systems, lack of sidewalks, curbs and
gutters in portions of the area, deficient intersection
capacities, inadequate traffic circulation for the area as well
as proposed impacts by the Caltrans widening. The area does
suffer from a poor image, poor parcelization in parts and
confusing and inadequate access to the freeway. The area has
been under consideration for some time and much more intensely
since December of 1988 when they asked the Urban Land Institute
to do a study. The Land Institute came up with a recommendation
that the City of Anaheim and the Anaheim Redevelopment Agency
look into putting the area into redevelopment. Since spring
1989, the Agency has been working on all the legal documents
necessary for project adoption, including but not limited to, a
preliminary plan, Draft EIR, preliminary report and Final EIR.
Many workshops have been conducted including four public
workshops, an open house at Anaheim Plaza, six news letters
distributed to the 900 - member mailing list and staff has
attended all of the task force meetings at the Chamber of
Commerce which were 10 to 15 meetings.

In summary, the information binder previously submitted to the
Agency /Council /Commission as well as the items submitted as
supplemental information today is the information to be used for
their analysis in determining the feasibility of the proposed
project. As well, all of the photos and exhibit boards posted
in the Council Chamber relative to the project should become
part of the record. (See information binder entitled - Joint
Public Hearing on Proposed Redevelopment Plan - Plaza
Development Project - which explains all aspects of the plan in
detail and which includes among other documentation, the Final
Environmental Impact report and all required documentation
relative to plan approval. Also see supplement to report to the
City Council on the proposed redevelopment plan for the plaza
redevelopment project - made a part of the record). The
affidavits of publication and of mailing notices to property
owners and taxing agencies were then submitted to the City Clerk
also to be entered into the record.
City Clerk Leonora Sohl then announced that as of this moment,
approximately 9,200 signatures have been received in favor of
the plaza redevelopment project and one resolution in favor of
the project from the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce signed by .o.
Donald E. Natenstedt, President. No written comments in
opposition to the project have been received.
Mayor /Chairman Hunter opened the public hearing to receive testimony or
questions. The following 20 people spoke to the project. Their
comments /questions are summarized. Of the 20 people, one spoke in opposition,
one did not feel saving the plaza was feasible, others had questions regarding
disposition of their property or wanted clarifications relative to certain
aspects of the plan. (A verbatim transcript of the proceedings is on file in
the City Clerk's Office).
Chuck Cooper, Plaza Merchant (owner, Hickory Farms). He
represents COMBAP (Concerned Merchants for the Betterment of
Anaheim Plaza).
He has been in business in the Anaheim Plaza for 15 years. He
has a resolution to be entered into the record after it is
read. Mr. Cooper then read a resolution from COMBAP (made a
part of the record) supporting the formation of the Plaza
Redevelopment Project Area and asking the Agency /Council to
implement the plan immediately, expedite redevelopment of the
project area and to take "all action necessary to see that the
development of Anaheim Plaza and the project area, be undertaken
in a timely manner to enhance the business atmosphere in Anaheim
and assure stability of the project area to the City."
Charles M. Farano, Farano & Kieviet, 100 South Anaheim
Boulevard, Attorney for COMBAP.
Their estimates are if something is not done as soon as
possible, if the redevelopment plan is not adopted, the plaza
90 -47
Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
June 5. 1990, 5:20 P.M.
will be 50% vacant by the end of this year. It will basically
spell "death" for the plaza. The property owner in the past has
neglected and not kept up the property. There are several
problems with the infrastructure and the traffic pattern
surrounding the property that can only be overcome through
redevelopment. The merchants in the plaza and the entire
community have joined together with the help of the City to try
and boost sales in the plaza area but it has not been enough.
There is no time to waste. He is not present merely to urge the
Council /Agency but to plea on behalf of the merchants of the
plaza for them to adopt the plan. There is much support for it.
Paul Bostwick, 1411 South Anaheim Boulevard.
He does not have property in the area, but he is currently the
Committee Chairman for the Community Development Committee of
the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce and within that is the Plaza
Area Redevelopment Task Force. He then read in full the
proclamation from the Chamber of Commerce previously submitted,
strongly recommending that the Agency and Council adopt and
implement the formation of a redevelopment project area known as
the Anaheim Plaza Project Area and that such action be taken as
quickly as possible. He also read excerpts from the Loesser
report previously commissioned and submitted to the Agency
relative to the project as well as Strategy 8 in the City's
Vision 200 Plan, which were statements of further justification
to put the redevelopment plan in place.

inside the Council Chamber raised their hand (chairs

lose in opposition; there were two people who were in
Christopher Whorton, President, Anaheim City School District,
2074 Della Lane. He was accompanied by his fellow Board Members
and Superintendent.
While the District has taken no position on the project, the
City School District believes the agreement in concept reached
between the School District and the Redevelopment Agency will be
of benefit to the project, City of Anaheim in general and the
students of the District. Under the terms of the agreement, the
Agency will assist the District in acquiring a new downtown
school site or in capital improvements to their existing school
facilities. The cooperation exhibited by the Agency is
refreshing and they wish the City well with the project.
Marshall Krupp, business person in the community.
He has a unique perspective on the redevelopment project. As
past Chairman of the City's Economic Development Board, they
were very much involved in evaluating the opportunities for
90 -48
Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
June 5. 1990, 5:20 P.M.
Anaheim in terms of revitalizing and enhancing the economic
environment throughout the community. One of the primary
objectives the Board conveyed to the Council was the need to
address Anaheim Plaza and the constraints in terms of
redevelopment and development activities surrounding the plaza.
This is the only opportunity the Board saw for bringing together
the public and private sector to enhance the quality of Anaheim
Plaza. It has been a community effort to come to where they are
today. Although Anaheim is one of the larger cities in Orange
County, it is the only city without a viable regional shopping
center and Anaheim Plaza is the location where it should be. He
knows there is only one decision to make and that is a vote to
revitalize Anaheim Plaza.
John Machiaverna, 608 South Hilda, and owner of a jewelry
business in the Anaheim Plaza. (J. Mac Jewelers)
He has approximately 300 more signatures on petitions signed
today in the Westmont /James area. He is on the Board of
Directors of the Anaheim Merchants Association. He then read a
document from the Board wholeheartedly endorsing approval of the
Anaheim Redevelopment Plaza Project (made a part of the record).
Doris Taylor, 1461 West Beverly Drive, Anaheim.
She is representing herself but many of the neighbors in their
area (Westmont) have discussed the matter many times. They do
support redevelopment of Anaheim Plaza and would very much like
to have a regional shopping center that works for everyone. It
is very unfortunate that the flyer previously discussed was
distributed since it caused great concern and mild panic. The
implied threat of many apartment buildings brought out many
homeowners. It is regrettable that the misunderstanding took
place and she is grateful that the matter was cleared up. They
need assurance the City is looking out for the residents' best
interest.
Jeff Kirsch (opposed), 2661 Palais, Anaheim.
He does not support the redevelopment project and he has
expressed opposition in the past to redevelopment projects. He
expressed his opposition and concern relative to tax increment
financing. Later in the meeting, Mr. Kirsch again expressed his
concern relative to such financing and posed a line of
questioning on tax increment financing answered by Mrs.
Stipkovich. Mr. Kirsch also questioned if over time is it not
reasonable to expect in that area as well as other areas that
costs to the City will increase with more costs going to police
services and the like.
Lisa Stipkovich.
It should have the impact of lessening all the social services
and police requirements for the area. If there is better
housing, better commercial areas, better managed properties, it
90 -49
ISO
Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY

can be shown statistically that there are less problems in terms
of crimes and other issues. There should not be any increase in
additional City services for the area. It is targeting the
money to go back into that area to help solve problems. The
theory in tax increment is that without redevelopment spurring
on the new development, they would probably not get any
additional increment. Without the Agency /City there to help in
redeveloping the plaza, it would probably stay stagnant or else
go downhill. She invited Mr. Kirsch to come to the Agency's
offices where staff would be happy to answer any further
questions or expand on those posed tonight. She will also put
his name on the mailing list to receive any additional
information on the project.
Lorretta Bowen, 1208 North Street, in the project area. (Staff
confirmed that Mrs. Bowen's home was not, in fact, inside the
project area).
She supports the project as far as redeveloping Anaheim Plaza
but she also has concerns relative to the financing and if
additional public hearings were going to be held regarding the
financial effect on the taxpayer. She also stated that in a
�-- General Plan, variances and ordinances can be changed without
public notice.
Lisa Stipkovich.
She first clarified that the only way to change zoning is
through a zoning ordinance. She then deferred to the City
Attorney.
City Attorney, Jack White.
Any action that would change the land use of any of the property
within the proposed redevelopment area would have to be done
either by a general plan amendment or a zoning ordinance,
conditional use permit or variance, all of which require noticed
public hearings. There is no action that the City could take to
change the land use for the property that would not require a
noticed public hearing before the City Council or Planning
Commission.
Lisa Stipkovich.
Relative to tax increment financing, it is really a misnomer.
The people who are in a redevelopment project area pay no
additional taxes. It is a redistribution of who gets the
taxes. The property tax base is frozen at the time a project is
adopted and any additional property tax normally paid due to a
sale or property being developed because it is a higher density
or value is still based upon the same rate everybody else pays.
That increment would go to the Redevelopment Agency rather than
the taxing entities that currently receive it. It is more of a
redistribution. What it guarantees is that the money the Agency
gets would be reinvested only in that area. It is a way of
90 -50
Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY onft
June 5. 1990, 5:20 P.M.
directing funds to help an area. There is no impact of the
redevelopment project of increased taxes in and of itself. That
money would then be utilized in a different way and the Agency
would have the capability of putting it back into the area.
Alfred Diaz. He is the owner of Anaheim Plaza Travel, 500 North
Euclid, and is speaking in support.
An item not mentioned is the decrease in sales tax revenue that
the City has suffered because of deterioration of the mall. If
the project is approved, the City will receive additional sales
tax revenue over the years.
Michael Yawn, 1414 West Wedgewood, Anaheim.
While he is in favor of redevelopment of the plaza, the
neighbors are concerned about the apartments that are going to
be built.
Mrs. Stipkovich interjected and again explained the situation
relative to the concern expressed by Mr. Yawn which she had
explained earlier in the meeting. The Loara site is currently
general planned for 1/2 of that property as low density and the
other half medium density. It is now zoned commercial. If
anyone wanted to come in and build units on that property, they
would have to first get a zone change which would automatically
trigger a public hearing and the neighbors could give input. If
the plan is approved, it will be consistent with the General
Plan and be the exact same land uses, low and medium density.
Knowing the concern in the area, they are recommending even
lowering the density further as an alternate land use. The
General Plan and the zoning would have to take place and could
only be done through the public hearing process and those within
300 feet would be notified. The zoning on that portion of the
site (closest to the residents) is residential agricultural but
would require a zone change because the agricultural zone calls
for only one unit per acre. She believes the misapprehension
and misinformation that was given out was that in some way that
was going to be considered tonight and that is not true.
Roberto Queva, 1221 West Dwyer, Anaheim.
Twenty -seven years ago when he came to Anaheim, the plaza was
very profitable despite its limited access from the freeway and
surrounding streets. The location is not one that anyone would
choose today to build a shopping center. Further, it will be
competing with the shopping centers in Buena Park, Orange and
Brea as well as South Coast Plaza, which is one of the best in
the United States. It is not a good location and there is no
land to expand.
Lisa Stipkovich.
Some of the comments made relative to competition are
legitimate; however, the site is certainly large enough for a
90 -51
LILOXI
..-. Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
June 5. 1990, 5:20 P.M.
regional mall since it contains almost 50 acres. The problems
of access are also very accurate and that concern is part of
what the proposed redevelopment project will address - improve
all access to the plaza. One of the things government can do,
working in conjunction with the private sector, is to use the
financing mechanism to improve access for the public. It is not
bailing out the private sector but there are times when
government needs to step in. In this case, it will make the
site more viable to create the catalyst to make something
happen. It is not costing any additional money to the
taxpayer. She reiterated it is a redistribution of property tax
and not an additional tax. She then answered additional
questions posed relative to how access would be improved and
stated she would be very happy to discuss this with Mr. Queva
further.
Michael J. Sofia, (28 -year resident).
He works, plays and lives in the City and he would like the
privilege of spending his money in Anaheim. They should not be
second to any city. He is an optimist and not a pessimist. He
would like to continue shopping at Anaheim Plaza and urges the
-^ redevelopment of the plaza.
Dr. Elwood Wiseman, 1246 Dwyer Drive.
Most of the people in his neighborhood are aware of the problems
in Anaheim Plaza and agree that changes and improvements need to
be made but they need some reassurances. They feel one of the
most dangerous City intersections is Loara and Westmont and they
would like reassurance that area will be protected so it will be
safe for those who live in the area and safe for the children
who go to Adelaide Price School.
Lisa Stipkovich.
The ultimate Caltrans widening would eliminate the off ramp on
Loara and thus would minimize traffic at Westmont and Loara.
Ed Holmes, 1435 Beverly Drive.
He is in favor of the redevelopment program but the owners of
the plaza have shown great reluctance to improving anything. He
asked how the Agency was going to inspire them to do something.
Lisa Stipkovich.
The owners do have the property up for sale and there is
significant pressure on them to do something. It is being
marketed by the firm of Goldman & Sachs and that firm has talked
to them extensively about what redevelopment could or could not
do. Most developers the Agency has talked to have said that
they need the help in order to improve the infrastructure.
Mr. Holmes continued that he believes the Agency has recommend
that the plaza become a discount shopping center that would
90 -52
S9
Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY

generate high traffic as opposed to a regional or "higher class"
center.
Lisa Stipkovich.
Although the prior Urban Land Institute Report proposed a value
oriented center, in subsequent meetings since December of 1988,
they have hired the firm of Congleton & Associates to do an
additional study as to what potential repositioning of that
center might be. They came up with several concepts. The
Agency feels there is a market for some of the international
stores currently not in the Southern California area which will
be the type of development that might be pursued. It is
difficult to give specifics until they know who the developer
is. The direction from the Council and the Commission is to get
the highest quality development possible - something exciting
and a unique retail experience.
Leonard Lahtinen, 2731 West Savoy, Anaheim.
He wants to clarify the ownership of the Anaheim Plaza. He is a
teacher in Anaheim. The plaza is owned by the State Teachers
Retirement System (STRS) but the teachers have no control over
it. It is a state government agency that taxes and invests the
teachers earnings. The teachers are very concerned about the
plaza property. The Anaheim Secondary Teachers Association and
Anaheim Elementary Educators Association have petitioned STRS
asking them to move on the property. Two months ago they sent
resolutions to STRS to advise them that the teachers are
concerned about the demise of the property. They live in the
community and want the community's economy to be healthy. They
are pleased to report they did receive a response indicating
STRS was aggressively attempting to sell the property, have
several prospective buyers and expect to complete a sale within
60 to 90 days.
An unidentified gentleman spoke in favor of the proposed
redevelopment project and thanked all involved for the work they
had done to bring the matter to where it is today.
Jan Myers, 2443 East Olive, business at 1771 West Lincoln.
She asked questions specifically relative to her property within
the project area which were answered by Mrs. Stipkovich. She
wanted to know if the project is approved, how many years or
months before her property is involved. Mrs. Stipkovich
explained that there were no immediate plans for anything at
this time other than Anaheim Plaza which presently is the number
one priority. Eventually they would like to sit down with all
property owners and businesses in that District to talk about
improvements and will probably be setting up planning workshops
in the next six months. The project is a long -range one with
changes that might occur over the next 35 years but not in the
immediate future. There are also no specific plans for
acquisition of property in the area.

Michael McFadden, J. Mac Jewelers, Anaheim Plaza.
He was born, raised and educated in Anaheim and is now co -owner
and operator of the subject business in Anaheim Plaza. In the
beginning, it was a nice mall but at this time he is not proud
to say his business is in Anaheim Plaza. He would like to be
able to do so in the future.
Dennis Bass, President of the Corporate General Properties.
They own and control the 17 -acre parcel at Euclid, Broadway and
Lincoln, which has been sitting there since 1984. They were
ready less than a month ago to proceed with a facelift of the
existing center and adding on additional footage. The total
sales tax revenue maximum to the City would have probably been
less than $200,000. With the project, they can put into the
property a quality center that would produce almost $500,000 of
sales tax to the City. They will not be looking to the City to
put money in their pocket but they will self - generate from the
revenues created and work with the Agency. They are not going
to be dealing with 1990 land prices on the property but 1984
land prices. They have been working with the Agency which is an
excellent one. Benefits accrue more to them than to the City.
Chuck Cooper.
He thanked all who came in support this evening. Speaking for
himself and on behalf of the merchants of the plaza, he
commended the City Manager, City Council, Commission, Mrs.
Stipkovich and her staff for doing an outstanding job and for
the tireless effort put forth to get the project going and bring
it to fruition. Staff has had many public meetings and met with
whoever has been interested. He thanked everyone involved and
urged them to go forward and to be proactive instead of reactive.
Lisa Stipkovich.
She thanked all the people at Anaheim Plaza who have been
extremely cooperative and have been working on the project with
staff for a long time. They have gone through many meetings
together. There has been great support and cooperation. They
are very sincere and earnestly interested in wanting to see a
better place. She also thanked the members of her staff.
