The Mayor declared Resolution Nos. 82R-473 through 82R-477, both inclusive, duly passed and adopted. 120: SETTING A HEARING DATE AND TIME TO DETERMINE THE EXISTENCE OF A PUBLIC NUISANCE - 949 NORTH MOHICAN AVENUE: Setting a date and time for public hearing to determine the existence of a public nuisance at 949 North Mohican Avenue, Arthur G. and Katherine C. Neiswanger, owners, as defined under Section 6.44.010 of the Code--suggested date: October 26, 1982, at 1:30 p.m. Councilman Overholt reported that he drove by the subject property yesterday and found no bus parked on the lawn. He asked staff, therefore, if there was compliance or an attempt to comply, which would prompt him to continue consideration of setting of a public hearing. Anthony Montoya, Housing Code Inspector, reported that there was a motor home and a private vehicle station wagon being parked on the lawn. The motor home had been removed, but the private vehicle was still parked on the lawn as of this morning. MOTION: Councilman Overholt stated it appeared there was an attempt to comply by Mr. Neiswanger. He thereupon moved to continue consideration of setting the matter for a public hearing for one week, to give an opportunity to determine whether there was an attempt to comply with the ordinance. Before any action was taken, Councilwoman Kaywood spoke against the motion. They discussed the matter on August 10, 1982, and on September 13, 1982, and inspection revealed that the vehicular parking on the front lawn had not ceased. If one of the vehicles was removed only the day before the day they were to set a public hearing, she did not view that as compliance. 864 City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 28, 1982, 10:00 A.M. Mayor Roth stated he leaned toward setting the hearing date which would give impetus for compliance. Councilman Overholt then suggested that the hearing on the subject item be set later than the hearing on the next item, which was the setting of a public hearing to determine the existence of a public nuisance at 1754 West Catalpa; Councilwoman Kaywood felt that, the two being related, people would be attending the meeting to hear both items. She did not see any reason why they should have to attend two meetings. MOTION: Councilman Overholt stated that he did not make suggestions without having good reasons for so doing, and the reasons had to do with the City. He then amended his motion that the subject public hearing be set one week after October 26, 1982, on November 2, 1982. Councilman Roth seconded the motion. A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion and failed to carry by the following vote: AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Overholt and Roth NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Kaywood and Pickler ABSENT: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Bay . City Attorney William Hopkins advised that in view of the tie vote, the matter~''"' would have to be continued one week for full Council action. MOTION: Councilman Pickler moved to set the date and time for a public hearing to determine the existence of a public nuisance at 949 North Mohican Avenue, Arthur G. and Katherine C. Neiswanger, owners, as defined under Section 6.44.010 of the Code, as Tuesday, October 26, 1982, at 1:30 p.m. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion. Before a vote was taken, Councilman Pickler stated that since they had set down rules in the Nuisance Ordinance, he felt they should abide by them. They were talking about a period that started on August 10, 1982, which would end on October 26, 1982, or a period of two and one-half months wherein the property owner could have complied. Mayor Roth stated he agreed, but when a Council Member cautioned the Council that the matter should be held over a week, it might be prudent to do so. A vote was then taken on the foregoing motion and failed to carry by the following vote: AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Kaywood and Pickler NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Overholt and Roth ABSENT: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Bay It was, therefore, necessary that the matter be continued for one week for full Council action. 865 __ ~City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 28~ 1982, 10:OO A.M. 120: SETTING A HEARING DATE AND TIME TO DETERMINE THE EXISTENCE OF A PUBLIC NUISANCE - 1754 CATALPA: Councilman Overholt moved to set the date and time for a public hearing to determine the existence of a public nuisance at 1754 West Catalpa Avenue, Nancyann and Robert E. Lauder, owners, as defined under Section 6.44.010 of the Code, as Tuesday, October 26, 1982, at 1:30 p.m. Councilwoman Kaywood seconded the motion. Councilman Bay was absent. MOTION CARRIED. 106: POSSIBLE LOSS IN SALES TAX REVENUE TO THE CITY: City Manager William Talley directed Council's attention to an article that appeared in last week's newspapers, citing taxable sales in California for the April-May-June quarter of $38.5 billion, or down 1.9 percent from the same quarter last year. That was a drop in actual dollars spent, but taking into account inflation, actuaI retail sales in California for the second quarter was 9.9 percent lower in constant value dollars. They ran an analysis of the City's sales tax for the period of September as soon as the figures were received, and while the City was not close to the statewide average, it was substantially under estimates. If the trend continued, the prediction was that sales tax could be as low as $900,000 under budget. The reason he was bringing the matter to the Council's attention was that next mo~th~ on October 28, 1982, they were going to have a work shop on the budgetary process with the Council, and he wanted them to start thinking about the situation. They should expect to see certain revenues, over which they had no control, to be dropping. That, combined with the possible extension of the NFL strike, would make him start to think about possibly cutting back either on expenditures, or looking for sources of revenue at a later time. Mayor Roth stated he understood that new legislation was coming forth to exempt cities relative to paying sales tax and they were going to be requested to support and endorse that bill. Also, he requested that staff, at their leisure, look at the problems involved where collections could be made directly to the cities, instead of the sales tax going to the State, and in turn, back to the cities. 117: PAYMENT PROCEDURE FOR AMOUNTS OF $5 MILLION AND ABOVE: Councilwoman Kaywood moved to approve payments of $5 million and above by wire or direct charge, as recommended in memorandum dated September 28, 1982, from the City Treasurer, Ruth Redepenning. Councilman Overholt seconded the motion. Councilman Bay was absent. MOTION CARRIED.

Mayor Roth first clarified for Mr. Schuster that staff was recommending that his alternate plan not be approved because it would not eliminate traffic collisions at uncontrolled locations on Ball Road in the subject area and thus, would not qualify for Federal Highway funds in the amount of $225,000. Mr. Stephen L. Schuster, owner of McDonald's, 119 West Ball Road, first stated he agreed that his alternate plan would not prevent a higher percentage of collisions as the plan presented by staff, but it was a compromise plan. Kentucky Fried Chicken, the fish establishment, the dry cleaners and McDonald's had been at their Ball Road location for many years. They were good neighbors to the City and had contributed a great deal to the community. Mr. Schuster then briefed the Council on his alternate plan, which had been submitted previously, and gave his reasons why he felt his plan was a viable one, both from a traffic and safety standpoint, and yet still qualify for Federal funding. He also submitted pictures of similar traffic situations encountered at his Tustin McDonald's. Mr. Schuster's presentation was followed by questions posed to him by the Council as well as to Shirley Land, Traffic Engineering Assistant, for purposes of clarification. Mrs. Land further stated that staff felt there were alternatives that could help accommodate the demands that were trying to get to the businesses which Mr. Schuster was speaking. At the conclusion of discussion and questioning, Mayor Roth stated what they were trying to address today was not so much that there were no alternatives, but that the alternatives would prevent them from receiving the Federal funding which the City was interested in obtaining, even if they were talking about 1984 or 1985. They were sympathetic with Mr. Schuster and the concern expressed relative to access to his business and those other businesses adjacent to him; however, they were also sympathetic with all citizens in their use of Ball Road and the desire to eliminate very hazardous conditions. Councilman Overholt noted that staff had indicated that the concerns of the business people had been considered, and they were looking at alternative ways of getting their customers to them. He presumed then that those businesses were invited to contact the Engineering Division to dee if mitigating measures might be worked out: Mrs. L~nd confirmed that was correct. MOTION: Councilman Pickler moved to reaffirm approval of the Hazard Elimination Plan submitted by staff and approved by the Council on September 7, 1982. Councilman Overholt seconded the motion. Councilman Bay was absent. MOTION CARRIED. Mayor Roth stated he appreciated Mr. Schuster's appearance before the Council today. 8?0 City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - September 28, 1982, 10:0.0 A..M. 139: OPPOSING PROPOSITION NO. 13 - WATER RESOURCES STATUTORY INITIATIVE: Councilman Roth offered Resolution No. 82R-478 for adoption, opposing Proposition 13 on the November 1982 Ballot, Water Resources Statutory Initiative.

The letter was a rebuttal to a Los Angeles Times editorial endorsing Proposition 13. They also needed to get information out to groups such as the Community Services Board and the Senior Citizens. The public needed to be informed, not only of the detrimental effect that Proposition 13 would have relative to local control, but also the accelerated costs of water that would result. ORDINANCE NO. 4365: Councilman Roth offered Ordinance No. 4365 for first reading. ORDINANCE NO. 4365: AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM AMENDING TITLE 18 OF THE ANAHEIM MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO ZONING.
