to provide funding support for the Ultra Low Flush Toilet Rebate program.
Mr. Phillip Knypstra, 2520 Gelid Avenue, Anaheim, addressed the Council
reporting on his comparison survey taken in nearby cities comparable to
Anaheim, and finding that Anaheim has the highest water rates for its low
volume users and the lowest rates for its high volume water users. In his
opinion, the rates Anaheim charges its customers encourages them to use more
water in order to receive high volume user rates, while asking them to conserve
water. He requested that this item be deferred for additional study.
Council Member Daly. He requested comments from staff regarding potential
staffing needs for this rebate program.
Edward Aghjayan, Public Utilities Director. He reported that the originally
budgeted $2.3 million for conservation was cut to $1.1 million during the
budget process, which is 29% of the total program. The Metropolitan Water
District (M.W.D.) will fund 42%, and the Orange County Sanitation Districts
will fund the remaining 29%. Referring to a chart projected on the slide
screen, he advised that the goal is to replace some 6,800 toilets in
residential households and 1,000 more in hotels, motels and businesses~ this
would result in an estimated ultimate savings of 114,000,000 gallons of water
each year, and would benefit the community in the amount of $5,646,000 over a
ten-year period while helping fund administrative and other costs associated
with the program. City residents would save up to 900,000 gallons, and he was
of the opinion that the program would be very popular with residents and the
business community.
Mr. Mike Moynihan, Metropolitan Water District (MWD), was present and responded
to additional questions. Currently in their service area they have approved
projects and proposals received from 16 water agencies participating in this
type of program. The total cost of these is estimated at approximately
$14 million. Anaheim is the first City in Orange County to initiate such a
program, and so far there are no water districts participating in a rebate
program. MWD supports this type of program.
582
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 27r 1991r 5=00 P.M.
Mr. Aghjayan. He introduced Water Conservation Coordinator Altosea Soltani,
who came to Anaheim from Santa Monica where a similar program had been
implemented very successfully. Although she was not aware of any other local
districts involved in such programs, some may be in the process of applying for
funds to other agencies, which takes some time
Council Member Daly. He requested that Utilities staff make quarterly reports
to Council evaluating the success of this program.

APPLICANT'S/AGENT'S
STATEMENT:
Judy White, Administrator of Kaiser Permanents, Anaheim. They
have experienced a 50% growth rate in Orange County membership.
There are now 180,000 citizens in Orange County who are members
of this health care program. The current Kaiser hospital
facility cannot serve all of the health care needs of their
membership base and therefore they have contracted with Humana
Hospital in West Anaheim to provide 75 - 100 hospital beds, and
they need medical office space to work from in the iz~ediate area
of the hospital. It is their expectation that there will be 150
deliveries and 4,000 surgeries per year at this location.
590
City H~llr Anaheimr California - COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 27. 1991. 5=00 P.M.
It is important to their organization that they build this
medical office facility for reasons of equity and cost. Ms.
White outlined that Kaiser Permanents is a responsible corporate
citizen, and will bring to the community 200 new jobs, off site
improvements, health education classes and other
community-oriented benefits.
Mr. Jim Linn, 393 East Walnut Street, Pasadena, Architect. He
explained that the applicant intends to build a five level
medical office building and a five level, above grade parking
structure. The design of the parking structure has been revised
due to discussions with the homeowners of Wind Rivers
Condominiums to increase the setback from 10 to 33 feet, and to
provide additional stepped setbacks. The primary reason for the
appeal from the Planning Commission decision is relative to the
condition placed on the project for a 2=1 sloped setback on the
parking structure, as this will remove a large number of parking
spaces and will leave the project with insufficient parking
spaces. They have had several meetings and discussions with the
Wind Rivers Homeowners and also designed into the project hanging
landscaping.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION
IN FAVOR=
David Culberson, 2775 Mesa Verde East, Costa Mesa, Associate
Executive Director, Humana Hospital, West Anaheim. He explained
that Humana owns the property adjacent to the subject site and
supports the proposed project. It is one component part of a
unique relationship which will help to develop cost-effective
health care. This relationship will allow Kaiser the use of
existing hospital facilities rather than building new ones.
THE FOLLOWING PEOPLE SPOKE IN FAVOR OF THE PROJECT=
Frank Alexander, resident of City of Stanton
Pat Maldy, 5181 Carlsbad Circle, Los Alamitos
Cindy Brial, 1306 Oriole, Anaheim
THEIR REASONS FOR SUPPORT WERE=
That many Kaiser members who live in the immediate area of this site have to
travel a considerable distance for health care~ that traffic to the existing
Anaheim hospital is terrible and getting worse~ that if built it should have
sufficient parking because in present facilities, it is difficult to get a
parking spot.
THE FOLLOWING PEOPLE SPOKE IN OPPOSITION=
Mike Stacker, 3047 W Cheryllyn Lane
Dennis Zlmmerman, 3053 Cheryllyn Lane
Wayne Keller, 3083 W. Cheryllyn Lane
Patricia Cotter, 3145 West Haven Drive
THE MAJOR POINTS IN OPPOSITION WERE=
The size of the project which they felt too large for the site~ the 2=1
591
City Hallm Anaheimm California- COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 27~ 1991~ 5=00 P.M.
stepped setback from the condominium property as set forth in the Planning
Commission condition which they felt would scale the project back in
relationship to the condominiums~ the question of noise and exhaust fumes
coming from the traffic into and out of the parking structure.
In summary they felt very strongly this was a quality of life issue for the
condominium owners~ that it would be difficult or impossible to mitigate all of
the potential problems and also screen from view a structure of this size which
is so close, with the main entrance and exit on the end near the condominiums.
Of concern also to the surrounding property owners was the issue of additional
traffic in an area already heavily impacted by traffic~ and that of crime and
graffiti in a parking structure which would be accessible at all hours. One
respondent also noted that when she moved to this area her automobile insurance
premiums went up because this area has so many traffic accidents, what will
happen when this facility opens up? It was noted in general that this area has
an increase in graffiti, crime, gangs, and lowering of respect for other
peoples' property, and generally will not be a very desirable part of Anaheim
in which to live.
Carla Keller, 3083 Cheryllyn Lane, representing the Wind Rivers Condominium
Association. She asked the homeowners present and in opposition to indicate by
a show of hands. Approximately 1/2 of the Council Chamber was filled with
people in opposition. She referred to the petition submitted to the Planning
Commission containing signatures in opposition to the Kaiser proposal. The
concerns of these homeowners have been expressed to Kaiser and to the Planning
Commission at several meetings. The homeowners asked for the 2=1 set back
since without this they will be faced with a structure less than 35 feet
away. She noted it is the front of their homes which will look to the parking
structure, not the back. The homeowners' questions regarding security in the
parking structure have not been answered, and the people parking there will
have direct visual intrusion into their homes. In view of these concerns the
Condominium Association asks the City Council to uphold the Planning Commission
condition concerning the 2=1 setback from their property.
In response to Council Member Daly, Ms. Santalahti explained the Planning
Commission's vote on the 2=1 condition, and advised that this is contained in
the Planning Commission Resolution, Condition No. 26.
Council Member Ehrle asked how many spaces would be eliminated as a result of
the 2=1 setback condition.
Ms. Santalahti responded that the number of spaces required for the project is
1,010. This proposal seeks a Variance to allow 864, and the 2=1 would reduce
the parking spaces by 30% to 764 spaces.
In summation, Mr. Linn stated that his organization would not want to seek an
additional parking waiver but would rather want to make up these lost spaces
somewhere else, as they feel the code requirement is an accurate reflection of
what they will need. As regards the opposition statements, Mr. Linn voiced the
opinion that they had addressed the landscaping~ they would be willing to close
off the south side of the parking structure, and they have offered that
proposal as an option and would continue to offer it.

COUNCIL ACTION=
Mayor Hunter closed the public hearing.
At the conclusion of Council discussion, Council Members felt there was still
room for compromise on the parking issue and that additional dialogue between
Kaiser and the condominium owners might be worthwhile.
City Attorney Jack White pointed out that to the extent the applicant brings
back any revision to the plan that involves additional deviation from parking
that he would be required to provide to the Traffic Engineer, prior to the date
of the continued hearing, an updated traffic study which indicates the effect
of the deviation on parking and traffic in the area.
MOTION= On motion by Council Member Ehrle, seconded by Council Member Simpson,
the public hearing on Variance No. 4113 was continued four weeks to the meeting
of September 24, 1991, incorporating into the motion the direction given above
by the City Attorney concerning the updated traffic study. Motion Carried.

Set for public hearing as recommended by the Planning Commission.
APPLICANT'S
STATEMENT=
David Craig, Partner. He passed out site plane for building 19
which fronts on Raymond Avenue. He noted that when the
industrial park was originally developed, CUP 3183 was granted
allowing additional industrial related sales uses for those
properties which front on Raymond Avenue. He explained that
along with those uses allowed by code they have solicited
additional uses which were granted on three occasions. The
Planning Commission has approved additional industrial sales uses
in July, which would be servicing other businesses in the park,
as well as other industrial businesses. They are seeking
approval from Council on these and would like to add two more for
take-out food only - a delicatessen and Mexican fast food.
City Attorney Jack White explained that in 1989 the City Council
approved a Conditional Use Permit for this project and two of the
conditions imposed limited the uses that could be made of the
property specifically. The uses now being proposed do not fit
the categories on either of the lists and are being requested as
593
City Ha~l, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 27, 1991, 5=00 P.M.
amendments to the original Conditional Use Permit. Ne noted that
the Planning Commission felt the food issue should be examined
seperately.
Joel Fick, Planning Director noted that the Planning staff also
concur that the food related requests should be reviewed
individually and not as a part of the listed u~es in this CUP.
There were no persons present to speak either in favor or opposition~ therefore
the Mayor closed the public hearing.
Council Members noted that subject property is near the northeast corridor land
use study area and they would prefer to know the results of that prior to
taking this kind of an action. It was further noted that the types of uses
requested for building 19 appear more like a strip commercial than industrial
land use plan.

APPLICANT'S
STATEMENT=
Jay Keane, ARV Affordable Housing Inc., Agent for the Project
outlined the history of this particular project= that the land in
question is to be leased to the developer chosen by the school
district in order to generate funds which will in turn be used to
build new classrooms. His firm's proposal was the one chosen
because of two factors (1) they most closely followed the
criteria~ and (2) they were the highest bidder for the 55 year
term lease.
Mr. Keane reported on marketing studies of senior apartment units
which indicated an average 10% vacancy factor in market-rate
units and not a single vacancy in the affordable units. In
addition they found a list of 800 seniors in the City of Anaheim
waiting for senior citizen affordable housing, and 1500 waiting
for assisted living housing. This finding caused them to change
their plan and to provide a project of 100% affordable housing.
They have used architects well known in the senior ¢£tizen
housing field and have come up with a plan which will look like
any market rate project, but would be affordable. He relayed
some specifics of the plan proposed which is designed in a
circular fashion, which will contain 3600 square feet of
recreational space, a recreation center staffed with an
activities director, will have a library, arts and crafts, TV
room and two lavatories. In summary the project wil provide
affordable housing for seniors and funds for the school district.
Dr. Patricia Clark White, Superintendent, Centralia School
District, 6625 La Palma Avenue, Buena Park. She noted that there
has been a tremendous population explosion in elementary schools
and the Centralia District is no exception. Due to overcrowded
595
City Hallo Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 27, 1991. 5=00 P.M.
conditions in all of their schools it is necessary to add new
classrooms, especially in the Anaheim area. The Joint
development project with ARV to construct senior citizen housing
on the front of the parcel and classrooms on the back of the site
provides some outstanding features for the con~aunity, aside from
the housing and classrooms, it provides opportunities for
inter-generational child care. The ultimate control for the
senior project will remain in the hands of the Centralia School
Board. The property in question is an abandoned school site, and
the neighbors are anxious for the project to move forward. She
noted that the entire Centralia School District Board of Trustees
is present to express their strong endorsement of the project.
Shirley Cohen, Director of Feedback Foundation, 1200 North
Knollwood. She heads a senior citizen nutrition program providing
meals at two sites and a home meal program. She spoke from
experience that a big problem for seniors is housing and if there
were more senior affordable housing available more of them could
remain self sufficient.
Roger Cohen 3311 West Lincoln Avenue. He represents homeowners
on the west side of the project. They are in favor of this
proposal. They feel it will be beneficial to the neighborhood.
The site is vacant and ripe for crime and vandalism. The
neighbors would much prefer this project over strip commercial
malls or multi-family apartment buildings.
Gloria Scanlon, Member of the Board of Trustees, Centralia School
District. She stressed that the Board took the responsibility of
developing this project very seriously, and wanted to ehance the
school district and neighborhood with this project. They would
therefore not consider presenting such proposals as strip
commercial centers. Similarly they feel they have chosen the
developer carefully, that he has integrity and interest in people
living in the project long-term. This project will allow many
people who are retiring to be able to stay in their own
community.
PUBLIC DISCUSSION
IN OPPOSITION=
Phillip Case 1209 E. Imperial Highway, Placentia. Mr. Case
stated that his firm has built apartments in Anaheim for the last
25 years and owns and operates apartment units immediately to the
east of the site, as well as across the street at Westchester and
Lincoln. He noted that in the last 5 years several apartment
projects were aproved by the City Council with density bonuses
for affordable housing and in his opinion these are terrible. He
has a concern with the density bonus request on this proposal.
Additionally he feels the parking provided will not be adequate
since the definition of senior is 62 years, or older and most 62
year olds continue to drive. He also questioned the
596
City Hall. Anaheim. California - COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 27t 1991t 5~00 P.M.
affordability of the units, since at the recommended $522 per
month this will amount to .95 per square foot, which is the
highest rate he charges on any of his apartments in Anaheim. He
also stated the form which the project is taking is of concern to
him, due to the recent over loan problems with Savings and Loan
Institutions. This lessee will be a brand new non-profit
corporation. He is concerned that the project will apply for and
receive a 100% abatement of real estate taxes to allow for
tax-exempt financing which will present no revenues to government
from the project for essential services.
An issue of great concern to him personally is the matter of
intrusion within the 35 foot front setback on Lincoln Avenue.
This project proposes to park within 10 feet of the sidewalk. In
all of the years he has been building on Lincoln Avenue the 35
foot setback has been maintained, and he has had to design eight
projects around this requirement. This project approval will
cause others to request similar treatment. Further there is no
entity in this proposal who will have an equity position, and
therefore long-term interest in the project. He has equity
position in his projects and that is the reason he is speaking at
this hearing. In summary he feels that the Council should
objectively consider the density bonus, reduced taxes, parking
requirements and front setback issues involved in the approval of
this project.
REBUTTAL:
Mr. Keane stated that he would invite Mr. Case who was concerned
about the look of this project to visit any of his other 28
projects. This would include what he has built with density
bonus. His units are similar in lot coverage to what they would
be if built at market value, in fact even less. He has the same
desire to build and have a quality project as an affordable
senior project. As regards parking they do intend to have a van
and predict that 1/2 of the seniors will use the van for
transportation. One half of the parking spaces will be covered.
As far as affordability of the units is concerned, those renting
the units will have to have an annual income which is 8% of
median - this is a federal restriction that comes with a
penalty.
With respect to the non-profit and non-equity status, the
developer will have $900,000 cash into the project. This project
will be under the jurisdiction of the non profit entity and the
school board, and fits the purpose for which the tax abatement
was allowed by the State of California, i.e., to create
additional affordable housing units.
On the comments about the 35 foot setback from Lincoln Avenue,
Mr. Keane noted that the average overall setback will be 59
feet. In the area which encroaches they will park 17 cars, but
these will be behind a covered or wrought iron fence and heavily
597
City Hallr Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - AUGUST 27m 1991r 5=00 P.M.
landscaped. They will not be seen from the road. The management
of his firm is interested enough in this project to manage it for
the next 55 years as well.
COUNCIL ACTION=
Mayor Hunter closed the public hearing.
COUNCIL DISCUSSION
AND ACTION=
Council Member Daly asked if Mr. Case had shared his concerns
with the Centralia School Board, and received an affirmative
answer.
Staff Members also answered questions relative to the numbers of
senior apartment units available in Anaheim~ their monthly rent~
and how the City assures that affordable senior units are rented
to individuals who are in the annual income and age range for the
senior units.
Joel Fick Planning Director. The staff has a suggestion, if
Council intends to waive the front setback requirement, that
condition No. 14 which requires that landscape and irrigatioD
plans be submitted for review, also include wording to the effect
that this landscape/irrigation plan be in substantial conformance
with plans submitted this evening.
Additionally, Annika Santalahti reported that a requirement on
signing made by the Planning Commission did not get into the
conditions of the Planning Commission Resolution, and therefore
condition No. 20 should be amended to specify that signage will
have a total combined area which shall not exceed 20 feet~ or a
total of two signs which shall not exceed 20 square feet.
