All. 155: Adopting a Negative Declaration of Environmental Impact for the
construction and widening of the Anaheim Boulevard/Ball Road intersection
improvements.
Kenny Wan, Awan Investment, 9657 Las Tunas Drive, Temple, Arizona 91780. He
represents the landowner for the property at 1200 S. Anaheim Boulevard. He
has reviewed the initial study for the EIR. Relative to the construction of
the'road widening, in his view, it will increase the noise level, dust, odor
and seriously impact the daily operation of the tenant. He believes a fully
detailed mitigation plan must be identified and resolved. On Item 7 of the
study, it also indicated there may be some impact on traffic congestion. He
feels it should be a yes that it will create traffic congestion and impact the
operation of the dealership. Full and complete mitigation plans should be
identified prior to adoption of the proposed negative declaration.
Mayor Daly asked if staff had an opportunity to look at the written comment
that was submitted; City Attorney White stated that it apparently was just
received.
195
City Hall, Anaheimr California - COUNCIL MINUTES - APRIL 19, 1994 - 5=00 P.M.
Frank Busal, President, McPeek Chrysler Plymouth, Inc., 1200 S. Anaheim
Boulevard, Anaheim. He has been located at that address since January of
1964. The severity of the project definitely is going to be detrimental to
his economic status and also the 55 people he employs. Part of the project is
to remove 12 feet of the facility which will shut down his used car operation,
the Ball Road part of the project; being that the other entrance is where all
service and parts customers come, would entail closing of a lane which means
his parking on both sides of the facility will be gone. He is looking at a
70% loss of the business he now has. He is one of the very few surviving
dealerships left on the Boulevard. That is really not environmental, but it
is a major problem to him as a 30-year dealer.
Mayor Daly asked, with the submission of these comments, does that change
staff's recommendation in any way and also what is the time frame for design
and construction of the intersection?
Gary Johnson, Director of Public Works and City Engineer. The key is whether
there is significant environmental impact. That is the test of whether a
negative declaration or full document is appropriate. Staff believes it is
not significant and a negative declaration would apply. Relative to the
economic impacts of the project, to the extent they are able to by law
accommodate some of those considerations in negotiations for the right-of-way
acquisition, they will do that and work with all property owners. They also
have extensive experience in phasing construction. The most recent example
would be the reconstruction of Convention Way between the Marriott and the
Hilton. It was a very complex project. They phased and worked with all
property owners to minimize disruption. They would develop the contract
specifications so that it would absolutely minimize the impacts. As to
scheduling, there are really five projects involved - about 2.5 million in
funds most of which are grant funds. There are three projects which are
federally funded that primarily involve Ball Road which they propose to do
late this summer. There are two projects that primarily involve Anaheim
Boulevard funded by OCTA which they plan to do in the Spring of 1995. By
combining all the grant funded projects, they will try to do it in two phases
and work with all property owners to minimize disruption. The agenda item
tonight is simply a negative declaration, the environmental clearance. They
understand there are more than environmental issues related to the project.
In the future, they will be coming to the Council for permission to retain a
civil engineer to design the project. They will be proceeding with the
right-of-way acquisition if the document is approved. Ail of the projects are
budgeted currently in the City budget and four of the five are environmentally
clear. This is the only project that isn't because they received the
$1.1 million from OCTA for the intersection improvements later than the
others.
Mayor Daly. He emphasized it was necessary to take into account the important
business activity on that corner. They value the long time car dealer and
hope they will be able to work out whatever phasing challenges exist.
At the conclusion of the Consent Calendar, the City Council adopted a negative
declaration of environmental impact on this project.

City Hall, Anaheimt Californi& - COUNCIL MINUTES - APRIL 19, 1994 - 5~00 P.M.
A13. 160: Accepting the low bid of Consolidated Electric Supply, in the
amount of $30,000, for one (1) each unit substation for Anaheim Stadium, in
accordance with Bid $5260.
A14. 113: RESOLUTION NO. 94R-62: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM AUTHORIZING THE DESTRUCTION OF CERTAIN CITY RECORDS MORE THAN
TWO YEARS OLD. (City Clerk's Office)
A15. 128: RESOLUTION NO. 94R-63: A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF ANAHEIM PURSUANT TO SECTION 53334 OF THE GOVERNMENT CODE OF THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA TO CONSIDER ALTERING THE TYPES OF PUBLIC FACILITIES FINANCED BY
COMMUNITY FACILITIES DISTRICT NO. 1989-2 (THE HIGHLANDS) IN THE CITY OF
ANAHEIM.
Sheri Flynn, 1042 Mountvale Court, Anaheim. She asked that the date of
June 7, 1994 for the public hearing be moved to June 14, if possible. She
would prefer to have the three districts attend the public hearing at the same
time instead of having three separate public hearings for each of the
developments. The Summit is close to gathering petition signatures from 25%
of the residents in their district and Woodcrest is still working on theirs.
City Manager Ruth. June 14, is the scheduled date for the public hearing on
the adoption of the City budget. It will be a very full meeting. Perhaps
June 21, 1994 would be a better time
City Attorney White. He explained that June 21, would put the matter beyond
the statutory time in which the City is required to hold the hearing. It
would be necessary to go backwards to set a date in time for the public
hearing and not forward. The last meeting the matter could be scheduled under
the law is June 14, 1994. The earliest it could be scheduled would be
mid-May. The reason it was set off as far as possible was to try to give the
proponents in the other two Mello-Roos districts time to submit additional
petitions and have all hearings on the same night. They did try to avoid
doing so on June 14 because of the budget hearing.
At the conclusion of further dialogue wherein possible alternatives were
discussed, City Attorney White stated that the public hearing could be
continued from the date set for the public hearing to a future date. The
Council could do that, the problem being notices would have to go out stating
that the hearing will be held on a given date. The first opportunity for the
Council to continue the hearing would be on the date set whether June 7 or
June 14. There is no way it can be done in advance.
Sheri Flynn. She suggested another option noting that the petition merely
starts the ball rolling from the homeowner side. The City Council can also
propose a resolution of consideration to get the ball rolling from the City's
side. That is a possibility with Woodcrest - that the Council initiate the
resolution and hold the hearings for all three districts on June 7, 1994.
City Attorney White. He confirmed that Mrs. Flynn's option was a good one and
the Council could initiate the resolution as opposed to waiting for a petition
with signatures. He suggested that they wait until they get the second
petition and the Council could then initiate the third so that all three
districts could be heard at'the same meeting.
There was general Council consensus on the procedure as suggested by
Mrs. Flynn and concurred in by the City Attorney.

APPLICATION THEREFOR.
Council Member Simpson. He is going to support the item but has a continuing
concern about moving individual items around in the CDBG program. He knows
how much effort goes into that by the Citizens Committee. They have a great
deal more detail than the Council. He feels a little uncomfortable personally
and is only speaking for himself in moving individual items around in that
block grant.
Council Member Hunter. He concurred with Council Member Simpson's comments as
well.
Mayor Daly. He asked for confirmation that this item does reflect the
complete recommendation of the Citizens Advisory Committee.
City Manager Ruth. It does with the one amendment which is taking the money
out of the anti-graffiti programs, $7,500, and allocating it to the Boys and
Girls Club. That was at the. request of the Council asking staff to come back
with a recommendation.

PLANNING STAFF INPUT:
See staff report dated April 19, 1994 from the Building Division Manager
recommending approval of the subject relocation.
Lisa Stipkovich, Executive Director of Community Development. In conjunction
with the Planning Department, Redevelopment staff has been working with
Mr. Waltz. On an earlier item under the Redevelopment Agency agenda, the
Agency approved an exclusive right to negotiate as an Agency to work with this
particular developer to relocate-these houses to the site indicated on Lincoln
and Rose. The negotiation agreement approved would allow them to negotiate a
site plan and determine how the houses would be sited on the property and also
negotiate a value. They do not have those details tonight. The action
tonight relates to the relocation of those structures to the proposed site.
She emphasized they are still in negotiation or would be in negotiation with
Mr. Waltz regarding site planning and all those issues. Should there be a
need for waivers or variances or anything of that nature, they would have to
come back before the Council. The public hearing is for the purpose to notify
people living in that area that there .is a proposed relocation moving those
two historical structures which are currently located on Broadway just west of
Anaheim Boulevard on the south side of Broadway to the proposed location in
order to save the historical structures.
Mayor Daly opened the public hearing.
Pattie Menino, Broker with First Team Real Estate. She has the drawings, the
site plan and renderings as to what the house will look like when it is
finished. One is the Grimshaw House and the other is the Cottage or the
Carriage House. The houses are ready to be moved.
Ron Waltz. The site plan is just a working drawing. The people who bought
the house are the Devoracks. They are presently living in Irvine and are
going to live in Anaheim. He (Waltz) is going to restore the house. The site
plan he has is not approved but the Council may wish to see it. The time
frame for completing the project is one year.
Pattie Menino. The Devorack's house is presently on the market and when it is
sold and it closes, they will move up to Anaheim so their children can start
school in September.
Lt. Col. Earl F. Rhodes (Ret.), 122 N. Vine, Anaheim. He was a former member
of the Redevelopment Commission. He spoke to Brent Schultz at the
Redevelopment Agency who referred him to Mr. Waltz for further information.
He (Waltz) provided him a copy of the site plan. He is in favor of the move
but has objections to part of the plan. One is the cul-de-sac on Vine Street.
There is a storm drain already installed and a cross "T" on the alley and
there is no reason to spend $50,000 or $60,000 to build a cul-de-sac and move
the storm drain. The size of that large house would be best situated on the
location adjacent to Rose Street rather than adjacent to Vine Street. He also
had a question with regard to the use of the cottage, whether or not it is
going to stay as residential or turn commercial. He is concerned with garages
called carriage houses or barns with lofts. He is worried about lofts in
certain locations that may suddenly become residences. The way it is designed
now, all of the entrances and exits are from the alley - across the street
between Rose and Vine. If the large house is moved next to Rose Street, there
is already a driveway built into the curb and it would fit much better. It
shows a 20-foot setback next to the garages. He uses the alley for his
trailer. He needs the 20 feet and cannot live with anything less.

City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCZL MINUTES - APRIL 19, 1994 - 5~00 P.M.
Mayor Daly. Relative to the concerns raised by Mr. Rhodes, he asked if those
can be accommodated during the negotiating process or would those need to be
addressed this evening.
Lisa Stipkovich. They are valid questions and issues which Community
Development is interested in as well. That is the difficulty in looking at a
site plan not yet approved by the Agency. She emphasized they are not asking
for approval of the site plan this evening. It will be brought back at least
as the Redevelopment Agency and if any variances or waivers, it will be
brought back to the Council. They will be happy to work with Mr. Rhodes as a
neighbor and to have some informal meetings to go over his concerns before
that site plan is finalized.
Dana Nance, 211 N. Vine. He is 100% in favor of the proposal. He does have a
few concerns about how it will be laid out but the way that Mr. Waltz has it
drawn up now, he can live with that.
Allen Clendenon, 900 E. Cypress Street, Anaheim. They have pioneered some of
the moves into the area and are 100% in favor of the proposed move. He feels
the concerns of the neighbors are something that can be worked out. He
believes with a meeting of staff and the neighbors, they could come to terms
to solve all the little problems discussed this evening.
Javier Ulloa, 114 N. Vine Street, Anaheim. They are in favor 100% as well but
agree with Mr. Rhodes relative to how the house should be located on the
property. He feels it can be worked out.
Ron Waltz. Relative to the concern of the citizens in the area, he has lived
in that neighborhood almost 20 years. He would like to sit down and work with
the neighbors and move as fast as he can. He asked the help of
Mrs. Stipkovich to do so.
Mayor Daly. Mr. Waltz has built and restored magnificent homes with great
attention to detail. If his track record holds true, he believes the same
will happen in this case as well.
