Davis. Their firm is the architect on this project. He is here to present a case for approval of the 33 ft. 6 inch height variance. He displayed a colored rendering of the front facade of the project. He submitted a letter in support of the project from 'the owner of lot #3 in the same tract, and signed drawings which were approved by the homeowners association. In response to Councilman Pickler, Mr. Crane indicated he was aware of the 25 ft. height limitation, however he was also aware of several homes in the immediate area which had been granted variances and were built to heights above 25 feet. He also indicated it would not be possible to design a house of this architectural style with a height under 25 feet. PUBLIC DISCUSSION IN FAVOR: Mr. J. R. Morrow, 1428 E. Chapman Avenue, Orange. He indicated that his firm was well aware of the 25 foot limitation, however in their initial meetings with City staff it was also indicated that since the adjacent residence was at 33 feet they would have no problem with his submittal of the plans and the request for Variance. In conjunction with this project they have met with the neighbors and the homeowners association, all of whom are in concurrence and support the project. 911 91 City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 20. 1988. 1:30 P.M. The individuals at the Zoning Administrator's hearing who were opposed do not live in the immediate area. He noted that Hidden Canyon is a private secluded community which is not perceived to be within the scenic corridor due to the topography. The property in question is 1.25 acres and has a buildable pad of 15-20,000 square feet. The residence will be built to 5,500 or 5,800 square feet. Architecturally it is in keeping with the area. It meets all other code standards, and will sit 60 feet back from the street. Only 8% of the roof will be above 30 feet. Christine Timeshook, member of the Architectural Control Committee. She indicated the homeowners do support the home. She voiced the opinion there was no reason not to allow a height variance when almost all of the homes are over the 25 foot limit, and she felt the homeowners should have some say in how high the homes will be. The rules should be changed for this area. Karen Roach, Member of the Architectural Control Committee, Hidden Canyon Estates. She noted that the plans for this home have been passed by her committee, and the homeowners are in support. They would much rather see the construction of this home, than to have empty lots which invite teenagers to park their cars. Bob Lundstrom, owner of Lot #1, Hidden Canyon Estates, voiced the opinion that no matter what height of home is built it is going to impact someone's view, in this case the view being impacted is someone driving by. Tom Nichols, builder of a house in Hidden Canyon in 1987, with two others under construction. He noted that all three had variances from the standards. Many of the homes being built now have 9-10 foot high interior walls and a 25 foot overall height does not permit the builder to do a good Job with the European architectural style because there is only a 5 foot pitch for the roof. OPPOSITION: The Mayor ca}led for anyone who wished to speak in opposition. There was no response. COUNCIL ACTION: Mayor Bay closed the public hearing. Mayor Bay noted he did support the property owner's right to have a say in the architectural style of his home, as lonE as there is no serious tangible effect on his neighbor. He also suggested that these homeowners make their opinions on the height limit for their area known to the Planning Staff and Planning Commission. 912 City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September ~0, 1988, 1;30 P.M.

Posting of property September 9, 1988. Hailing to property owners within 300 feet - September 7, 1988. PLANNING STAFF INPUT: See Staff Report to the Zoning Administrator dated July 28, 1988. APPLICANT'S STATEMENT: Bob Htchelson, 328 North Glassell, Orange, representing Ranco Development. He stated it was his understanding that due to the redesign of this project which caused the necessity for a third variance, making three items being requested instead of two, the Zoning Administrator could not rehear the project and it was appealed to the Council. The redesign of the project has the front unit lowered, the roof is hipped and the building steps back. The structure is 23 feet back to the front of the apartment unit which is the reason for the 3rd variance. PUBLIC DISCUSSION: IN FAVOR: Jack Nosek, 1206 W. Ash Avenue, Fullerton, owner of the property stated that much of the opposition to this project was based on traffic problems, which were not due to this development. There are apartment units in the area, and he felt this development would be a benefit to the area, as compared to the structure on it presently. Rick Crane, Thomas Maurer & Associates, architects for the project. They felt that they had come up with a viable solution with a redesign which reduced the height at the front, there is property in the areas with the same zone they are proposing. Although the structure proposed is really 2-1/2 stories it is recognized here as 3 stories. In response to Mayor Bay, it was ascertained that the project would be located 86 feet from existing single family properties to the northeast across Romneya Street, and there are two approved projects for 2-1/2 story with the same concept as this to be located nearby. There are none existing. PUBLIC DISCUSSION IN OPPOSITION: The following persons spoke in opposition to the project: Bonnie Ktrkwood, Board Member of NIPA. Dave Pritchard, owner of property at 906 and 908 Romneya Daisy Jones, 1218 North Riviera Shirley Ford, 1242 North Ralston Their opposition was based on the density - 10 units on this size lot; underground parking with security gates which will not be maintained will cause future problems; the 3-story concept; 914 City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 20. 1988. 1:30 P,M. overcrowding in the area; property and area cannot absorb more people. FINAL SUMMATION BY APPLICANT: Bob Michelson. The plans show this is intended to be a high quality development with lots of attention to detail. The builder has made a very strong attempt to mitigate the concerns of the neighbors. This is not a pioneering project, but rather a response to a trend in the area. COUNCIL ACTION: Mayor Bay closed the public hearing. Mayor Bay asked if there are three-story as defined by the City codes already approved in this area. Greg Hastings replied that 2 doors to the west, there is a project approved by the Planning Commission for 10 units, 3 story, 28-1/2 feet high, and another 8-9 lots west of Romneya recently approved by the Planning Commission. Mr. Hastings also confirmed that the project in question had maximum site coverage over 55 percent - it was proposed at 67%. Councilman Hunter was of the opinion that this project would establish a precedent in a primarily single family area, and should have gone back to the Planning Commission for review of the redesign. Councilman Pickler favored sending the revised plans back to the Planning Commission for review, and continuing the Council decision. It was the consensus of Council opinion that the project in either its present redesign state, or if further design changes are made, should be reviewed by the Planning Commission, and should be considered a new project. Council Members were of the opinion that the applicant should be able to refile the project immediately. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT - NEGATIVE DECIARATION: On motion by Councilman Bay, seconded by Councilman Hunter, the City Council approved the negative declaration upon finding that it has considered the negative declaration together with any comments received during the public review process, and further finding on the basis of the initial study and any comments received that there is no substantial evidence that the project will have a significant effect on the environment.

California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 20, 1988, 1;30 P,M, He gave a brief overview of the purpose of the transportation terminal, being to provide transport service to and from area airports, using vans for transporting from homes and hotels to this centralized location. This would keep the larger buses out of the congested areas and eliminate curbstde loading and unloading. Providing a service such as this requires a centralized location, and the subject property is the best, and only location they could find. The proponents were of the opinion it could be provided for on the hotel property since many of the functions they would perform are the same as those being provided by the hotel.
