Mr. Garcia reported this year the Census will be focusing on the hard-to-count areas which were identified in the 2010 Census.

He also reported many schools in Anaheim will serve as Questionnaire Assistance Centers.

Public Utilities General Manager Dukku Lee presented the item and reported Anaheim Public Utilities (APU) has an opportunity to take advantage of low-interest rates while continuing to invest in the City's water and electric infrastructure. Assistant General Manager, Finance and Administration, Brian Beelner reported there is currently approximately $1.4 billion invested in water and electric infrastructure in Anaheim of which 60% has been funded through tax-exempt municipal bonds. He reported bonds issued by APU do not impact the General Fund and all debt issued by APU is secured by its revenue. He explained bonds are used to fund such capital projects because the large-scale infrastructure tends to last at least 30 years. He further explained to collect the full cost of the asset from its customers would mean today's customers would bear the full financial burden of the asset to the benefit of future customers. Mr. Beelner reported credit rating agencies have affirmed Anaheim's credit rating based on the City's use and access to bonds. He advised these very high, investment-grade ratings ensure that APU may issue debt for water and electric infrastructure needs at the lowest interest rates available. He advised the proposal is to continue to take advantage of the ultra-low interest rates. He reported the drop in interest rates will result in a $550,000 per year savings to the City. Mr. Beelner reported the historically low-interest rates will allow APU to follow through with its ongoing bond strategy to refinance its older and more expensive debt, to reduce future interest payments by shortening the term of the existing debt by 5-7 years, to invest in new infrastructure, and to improve reliability. Mr. Beelner reported APU will achieve this goal by refinancing one electric debt bond and one existing water debt bond, both issued in 2016, with the current aggregate outstanding balance of those bonds being $158,000,000. He noted refinancing those bonds will result in saving $67,000,000 in future interest payments. He clarified a key item to the refinancing proposal is to shorten the term of the electric bond by approximately seven years and the water bond by five years, which will take advantage of the yield curve. He advised APU proposes to refinance a $50,000,000 variable rate bond, issued in 2015, into a fixed rate bond to eliminate any interest rate risk. Lastly, he reported APU is proposing the issuance of$115,000,000 in new electric and water bonds to replace aging infrastructure such as water mains, wells, substations, system upgrades to maintain reliability, and further updates to the grid. Mr. Beelner explained by taking advantage of the current market environment, APU can refinance its existing debt, save its customers $67,000,000, and allow APU to responsibly borrow for its current needs. Lastly, he noted running a public water and electric utility which is focused on the needs of the community takes continued investment and reinvestment using all tools at its disposal, such as securing low-interest municipal tax-exempt debt to keep customer rates affordable while also maintaining some of the highest levels of reliability in the region. City Council Minutes of January 14, 2020 Page 10 of 30 MOTION: Authority Member Brandman moved to approve Housing and Public Improvements Item No. 04-A(1), seconded by Authority Member Faessel. DISCUSSION: In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Mr. Lee explained by saving $67,000,000 in future interest payments, it helps to offset any type of rate impacts. He did note there will always be a nominal rate increase over time due to costs of construction and materials year over year. Mr. Beelner clarified he does not foresee an increase in electrical rates but water rates may increase by $1 per month, on the high end, due to the bond issuance. Mr. Lee clarified there are approximately 750 miles of water pipeline in Anaheim with three miles being replaced per year. Mr. Lee would like to see the replacement reach seven and a half miles per year with this proposal. In response to City Manager Chris Zapata's request, Mr. Lee clarified cost increases can rise due to the heavy regulation of the utilities and increases to the customer are used to cover the cost of compliance and mitigation efforts. He also noted the City will need to invest in a water treatment facility in the future. Council Member Moreno recommended providing residents a comparison tool that allows them to see how APU rates against its competitors. Mr. Lee reported rate calculators were available online and staff was available to assist individual customers with questions as well. Council Member Faessel thanked the team for their diligence on this proposal and expressed his support for the item.

Approve the list of recurring annual recognitions for calendar year 2020 (continued from City Council meeting of December 17, 2019, Item No. 06). Deputy City Manager Greg Garcia reported the item would approve the list of recurring annual recognitions. He advised City Council amended City Council Policy 1.10 regarding recognitions and city proclamations in order to once again establish a list of recurring annual recognitions containing organizations or events which are historically honored by the City of Anaheim. He explained the Council Policy further requires a list of recurring recognitions to be presented to City Council and adopted each December. He noted the list makes it easier for the City Council to adopt en bloc a list of proclamations to be given out throughout the year; however, it does not prohibit members of the City Council from adding and asking for one-off proclamations on any topic as long as it fits within the policy. DISCUSSION: In response to Mayor Sidhu's inquiry, Mr. Garcia explained the response to the recognitions vary with recipients choosing to receive the proclamation at City Council or having it mailed to them. Mr. Garcia noted that there were instructions on the website on how to request a proclamation and update contact information. MOTION: Mayor Sidhu moved to approve the list of recurring annual recognitions for calendar year 2020, as amended to include Indigenous Peoples' Day on the second Monday in October, seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Faessel. DISCUSSION: Council Member Barnes stated she did not see her request for February 17th to be recognized as Random Acts of Kindness Day in addition to Make Kindness Contagious Month. Mayor Sidhu agreed to a friendly amendment to his motion to include Council Member Barnes' request. Council Member O'Neil thanked the public for supporting Indigenous Peoples' Day but clarified the recommendation from the Cultural and Heritage Commission was to approve Indigenous Peoples' Day as an alternative to Columbus Day, and was not a truly unanimous recommendation of the Commission as only four members were present when the item was voted upon. He cited several public comments from the previous City Council meeting, clarified that Anaheim does not recognize Columbus Day, supported recognizing the contributions of indigenous people to Anaheim, suggested the recognition of Native American Heritage Month may be more appropriate, and stated he does not want the City to rewrite history. Mayor Pro Tem Faessel expressed his support for the item. Council Member Kring expressed concern about rewriting history but did support the item, acknowledging the passion of the residents and speakers. City Council Minutes of January 14,2020 Page 15 of 30 Council Member Moreno suggested, if approved, staff begin to think of Indigenous Peoples' Day in the context of the City's Public Art Ordinance. MOTION: Mayor Sidhu moved to approve the list of recurring annual recognitions for calendar year 2020, as amended to include Indigenous Peoples' Day on the second Monday in October and February 17 as Random Acts of Kindness Day, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Faessel. ROLL CALL VOTE: AYES—6 (Mayor Sidhu and Council Members Faessel, Barnes, Brandman, Moreno, and Kring); NOES — 1 (Council Member O'Neil). Motion carried. Mayor Sidhu requested interested parties leave their information with staff so they can be contacted for the recognition in the future. AGR- 17. Approve the Final Map and Subdivision Agreement with Bonanni Development/JB 11878 Construction V, LLC for Tract No. 18152, located at 3534-3538 West Savanna Street, to establish an attached 19 single-family residential unit condominium development. DISCUSSION: In response to Council Member Moreno's inquiry, Public Works Director Rudy Emami confirmed the item was approved by the Planning Commission in October 2018, including a Tentative Tract Map. He clarified the project is required to submit a Final Tract Map and to execute a Subdivision Agreement with the City which guarantees the developer will complete all public improvements to the property and requires the developer to provide a security bond for the cost of the improvements. Council Member Moreno questioned if any amendments had been made to the property land use, to which Mr. Emami explained the Planning Commission approved a General Plan Amendment, a Reclassification, and a Conditional Use Permit for the project. Mr. Emami further clarified the project included 24 units/acre on a .78 acre site located on West Savanna Street west of Knott Avenue. MOTION: Council Member Kring moved to approve the Final Map and Subdivision Agreement with Bonanni Development/JB Construction V, LLC for Tract No. 18152, located at 3534-3538 West Savanna Street, to establish an attached 19 single-family residential unit condominium development, seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Faessel. ROLL CALL VOTE: AYES — 7 (Mayor Sidhu and Council Members Faessel, Barnes, Brandman, Moreno, Kring, and O'Neil). NOES — 0. Motion carried. 23. ORDINANCE NO. 6476 (ADOPTION)AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF AGR- THE CITY OF ANAHEIM approving Amendment No. 1 to that certain Development 10188.1.1 Agreement No. 2016-00001 by and between the City of Anaheim and Good Hope International, a California Corporation, and authorizing the Mayor to execute said agreement for and on behalf of the City (DEV2015-00120) (1700 South Harbor Boulevard) (Introduced at City Council meeting of December 17, 2019, Public Hearing Item No. 39). DISCUSSION: Council Member Moreno compared the item being considered tonight with the item from last meeting regarding time extensions for development, which he supported the development for its potential, and the extension of a $180,000,000 tax subsidy to the developer. Planning and Building Director Ted White stated there were three items for Council consideration at the last meeting: an extension of the Development Agreement, an extension of the Operating Covenant Agreement, and a determination that the developer was in conformance with the annual review of the Development Agreement. City Council Minutes of January 14, 2020 Page 16 of 30 Council Member Moreno reported he met with the developer, and while he supporting building the hotel, he did not support a tax subsidy so was unable to support the entire item. Council Member Moreno believed that with the current, better economic market, an extension of the economic assistance was not necessary and preferred the money be available to assist City streets, parks, and families. MOTION: Mayor Pro Tem Faessel move to approve Item No. 23 as presented, seconded by Council Member Kring. DISCUSSION: Council Member Kring stated voters supported the hotels in 2018, explained the City needed the 4-diamond hotel rooms to better serve business travelers and visitors to the City, and the hotel will benefit Anaheim overall. She also clarified the Hotel Incentive Policy included a rebate of transient occupancy tax (TOT), not a subsidy. Mr. White clarified the item was bifurcated and the action for this item is only for the Development Agreement, not for the Operating Covenant Agreement. City Attorney Robert Fabela clarified there were two agreements on the agenda for December 17, 2019; one was the Operating Covenant Agreement, which did not require an ordinance, and the other was the Development Agreement, which requires an ordinance and a second reading which is why it is on today's agenda. Council Member O'Neil agreed the agreement is for a rebate and not a subsidy. In response to Council Member O'Neil's inquiry regarding economic projections of TOT revenues after rebating the developer's portion, Mr. White advised he did not have the numbers currently available but agreed the revenues do show the total return to the City would be an improvement over what is currently in place today. Council Member Moreno stated it is not a rebate and is a tax because it is not going back to the party paying the tax (visitor) but is going to the tax collector(hotel developer). He also noted the Radisson Blu is not asking for a subsidy and is also a 4-star hotel. MOTION: Mayor Pro Tem Faessel moved to approve ORDINANCE NO. 6476 (ADOPTION) AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM approving Amendment No. 1 to that certain Development Agreement No. 2016-00001 by and between the City of Anaheim and Good Hope International, a California Corporation, and authorizing the Mayor to execute said agreement for and on behalf of the City (DEV2015-00120) (1700 South Harbor Boulevard), seconded by Council Member Kring.

RESOLUTION NO. 2020-007 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM vacating excess street right of way for a portion of West Cerritos Avenue directly west of Anaheim Boulevard (Abandonment No. ABA 2019-00384). Approve the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Anaheim Business Campus, LLC, in the amount of$1,084,000, for sale of excess right of way from the City of Anaheim, authorize and direct the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute the Agreement and other documents including escrow documents, authorize the Mayor to sign the Quitclaim Deed, and authorize the City Clerk to deliver the Resolution and Quitclaim Deed to escrow for recordation in the Orange County Recorder's Office. Public Works Director Rudy Emami reported the item involves the proposed abandonment of excess street right-of-way. He reported on December 3, 2019, the City Council approved, by separate Resolutions, a General Plan Amendment, a Conditional Use Permit, a Tentative Tract Map, and a Variance, and by Motion introduced Reclassification No. 2018-00315, which shall be referred to herein collectively as the "Proposed Project". Mr. Emami reported the abandonment has been requested by the owner who intends on conveying its property to the applicant of the Proposed Project in order to clear title to construct a one-lot, 292- unit, attached condominium residential subdivision. He noted, if vacated, the City would reserve a public utility easement over the entirety of the portion of Cerritos Avenue to be vacated. He reported at a later date, all public utility facilities lying within the portion of Cerritos Avenue shall be removed, at such time and by a separate Resolution, the public utility easement reserved can be considered for summary vacation. Mr. Emami reported an appraisal of the portion of Cerritos Avenue was conducted by Sharon A. Hennessey, MAI, a duly authorized appraiser retained by the City and a fair market value of $1,084,000.00 was determined. He advised staff recommends approval of the item. Mayor Sidhu opened the public hearing. William Fitzgerald, Home Owners Maintaining Our Environment, expressed concern the land was being sold at a reduced price when adjacent properties were selling for significantly more money. He City Council Minutes of January 14,2020 Page 21 of 30 felt this sale was for the direct benefit of the City Council and made statements unrelated to the public hearing directed towards Council Member Kring and an alleged relationship with the Disney Corporation. Mayor Sidhu asked Mr. Fitzgerald to watch his language and when he did not comply, Mayor Sidhu asked him conclude his comments. Council Member Kring responded to Mr. Fitzgerald's comments and behavior. Mayor Sidhu closed the public hearing. MOTION: Council Member Kring moved to approve RESOLUTION NO. 2020-007 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM vacating excess street right of way for a portion of West Cerritos Avenue directly west of Anaheim Boulevard (Abandonment No. ABA 2019-00384) and approve the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Anaheim Business Campus, LLC, in the amount of$1,084,000, for sale of excess right of way from the City of Anaheim, authorize and direct the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute the Agreement and other documents including escrow documents, authorize the Mayor to sign the Quitclaim Deed, and authorize the City Clerk to deliver the Resolution and Quitclaim Deed to escrow for recordation in the Orange County Recorder's Office, seconded by Mayor Pro Tern Faessel.

Planning and Building Director Ted White reported the item is an appeal of the Planning Commission's denial of a 58-unit, attached single-family residential project at the northeast corner of Serrano Avenue and Nohl Ranch Road. He advised surrounding uses include single-family residential to the north, south, and east; Anaheim Hills Elementary School to the southwest of the intersection of Nohl Ranch Road and Serrano Avenue; and vacant property to the west across Nohl City Council Minutes of January 14,2020 Page 23 of 30 Ranch Road. He also advised the 3.03-acre property is located in the "C-G" General Commercial zone and the Scenic Corridor Overlay Zone and is developed with a commercial center that consists of seven one-story buildings with neighborhood-serving commercial uses. Lastly, he advised the site is designated for Neighborhood Center commercial land uses by the General Plan. Mr. White reported the project requires City Council approval of an amendment to the General Plan to change the land use designation from Neighborhood Center to Low-Medium Density Residential, which allows a density of 18 dwelling units per gross acre. The Proposed Project has a density of 19.1 dwelling units per acre, which would be achieved via an Affordable Housing Density Bonus Agreement. He reported the Planning Commission denied the amendment because the proposed change to the General Plan would result in the loss of a neighborhood commercial center and would create a residential density that would be incompatible with the surrounding neighborhood. Lastly, he reported the applicant proposes to rezone the property to the Multiple-Family Residential "RM-3" Zone, consistent with the proposed Low-Medium Density Residential land use designation. Mr. White provided an overview of the Conditional Use Permit which allows the units to be constructed in eight, 2- and 3-story buildings, consisting of 35 two-bedroom units and 23 three- bedroom units, including flats, townhomes, and carriage townhomes, all with two-car garages. He stated vehicular ingress and egress to the Proposed Project would be via driveways on both Nohl Ranch Road and Serrano Avenue. He presented the Site Plan which would include a total of 20,684 square feet of recreational area in the common area, where 20,300 square feet is required. He advised the project would be subject to the development standards of the RM-3 zone with the exception of certain setback requirements. He advised setbacks for projects in the RM-3 zone may be modified in conjunction with a conditional use permit. He advised the applicant is requesting to modify the interior landscape setback to allow parking spaces to encroach into the required landscape setback. Staff believes the modified interior landscape setbacks may be justified because the required structural setbacks are met, the elevations are without windows, ensuring privacy to adjacent residential properties, and there would be an adjacent 6-foot block wall along property line along with mature trees. The applicant also proposes building-to-building setbacks where 35-40 feet is required and 32-36 feet is proposed. Staff believes this modification may also be justified as it would allow for an efficient layout of buildings on the property while ensuring a quality living environment. Mr. White reported the applicant proposes 20% of the units to be sold as affordable to moderate- income buyers. He advised, based on the percentage of affordable units, the project is entitled to a 35% density bonus, reduced parking standards, and two Tier 2 Density Bonus incentives. He reported the applicant requests a 6% density bonus to construct 58 units where the General Plan would allow a maximum of 54 units. He further stated the Proposed Project meets the Multiple-Family Residential Parking Standards and no reduced parking standards or incentives are being requested. Mr. White advised two Tier 2 Density Bonus incentives are requested for the project. He reported the incentives to include a reduction in the minimum lot size requirement for multiple-family residential projects in the Scenic Corridor Overlay to allow a 3-acre minimum lot size where a 5-acre minimum lot size is required, and a reduction of the required 50-foot street setback along Nohl Ranch Road and Serrano Avenue to a minimum of 14 feet. He noted staff believes the incentive requests are reasonable and warranted. Mr. White reported the applicant hosted a community meeting on January 10, 2018. He advised staff also hosted a Scoping Meeting for the Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) on January 7, 2019. In addition, he reported two project notification signs were posted in accordance with the City's City Council Minutes of January 14, 2020 Page 24 of 30 Sunshine Ordinance. Lastly, he advised City staff also maintained an email list for interested parties requesting to be informed about the project, which includes 308 email addresses to date. Mr. White reported a Draft EIR was prepared and analyzed according to the standards and processes contained in the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA). He advised the City, acting as the Lead Agency, has analyzed the proposed project in accordance with the requirements of CEQA and determined the proposed project will not result in a significant effect on the environment with the implementation of the Mitigation Monitoring Program. He advised the City received comments from one responsible agency and 197 residents and/or interested parties. Lastly, he advised staff found none of the comments raised would require recirculation of the Draft EIR. Mr. White reported a Traffic Impact Analysis was prepared for the proposed project and was reviewed and approved by both City staff and the City's on-call consultant. He also noted the proposed project is not expected to result in any significant traffic impacts and was projected to have fewer trips generated than the existing use. Mr. White advised the City received a high volume of correspondence throughout the process with the majority being in opposition to the project and citing the following concerns: traffic and emergency evacuation, loss of the existing commercial center, density and land use compatibility, view impacts, parking, and geological instability. In response to the community's concern regarding the loss of the existing commercial center, he advised the applicant provided a "Strategic Retail Market Viability and Sustainability Analysis" study which concluded commercial land uses would not be feasible on the site due to "low demand, low supportability, and difficulty retaining and acquiring tenants." Mr. White reported Keyser Marsten Associates (KMA)was retained by the City to peer review the analysis. He advised KMA concurred with several conclusions made in the applicant's market study, but also had some contradictory opinions, including that the site could possibly accommodate mixed- use and/or food service uses. Mr. White summarized that the Planning Commission considered the application, received extensive input from the community, and found the proposed change to the General Plan would be inconsistent with the applicable goals and policies of the General Plan, specifically, the project would result in a land-use which is incompatible with the surrounding single-family residential neighborhoods. Mayor Pro Tern Faessel and Council Members Kring, Brandman, and Moreno reported ex parte communications with the applicant. Council Member Moreno announced he may need to leave the meeting early due to a work commitment. Mayor Sidhu opened the public hearing. Greg Powers, Jackson Tidus, representing the applicant, quoted several statistics noting California is in an affordable housing crisis and this project includes 12 affordable units. Mr. Powers believed the Planning Commission violated Government Code Section 66589.5 Subdivision B, which states "It is the policy of the state that a local government not reject or make infeasible housing development projects, including emergency shelters, that contribute to meeting the need determined pursuant to this article without a thorough analysis of the economic, social, and environmental effects of the action and without complying with subdivision". He felt the Planning Commission did not have a thorough analysis to support a denial and advised he provided a letter to City Council. City Council Minutes of January 14,2020 Page 25 of 30 Mr. Powers stated the project was not required to conform to every single General Plan policy if it will further the objectives and policies of the General Plan. He reported, as shown in Table 5.10.1 of the EIR, staff refers to the evidence contained in the record of the project's internal consistency with the General Plan goals. He noted the evidence is summarized as follows: "a property's existing retail center is not viable for continued commercial use", "the General Plan calls for redevelopment and revitalization of the failed retail center with housing," and "the proposed project is consistent with surrounding existing single-family housing already interspersed with multi-family housing". He advised there was no substantial evidence in the record to refute this. Mr. Powers stated the thorough analysis required under Government Code Section 66589.5 must be meaningful and notes the record fails to have any analysis whatsoever. He also noted while many letters were received opposing the project, the staff report presented to the Planning Commission stated the opposition was "without providing any substantial evidence or referencing any specific analysis or inadequacies in the Draft EIR". He also noted the staff report presented to the Planning Commission stated "no evidence has been submitted to support the assertion that property values would decline as a result of the proposed project or that future homeowners at this location would impose higher crime and safety threats to the nearby school. Because no evidence supports just a finding, resulting economic or social effects are at best, speculative". Mr. Powers noted State planning and zoning law require the City's Housing Element expressly contain an inventory of land suitable for residential development which can be developed for housing and are sufficient to provide for the jurisdiction's need for all income levels as stated in Government Code Section 65583. He also cited Government Code Section 65583.2(a)(4) which states "land suitable for residential development must include all sites zoned for nonresidential use that can be redeveloped for residential use" and advised the City of Anaheim failed to provide an inventory of those sites. He advised by failing to provide the inventory, it shows there is only one identified housing opportunity site in all of Anaheim Hills. Mr. Powers reported the administrative record is filled with substantial evidence in the form of technical studies and detailed analysis prepared by professionals to support the project. He also noted there is not a thorough analysis of the economic, social, and environmental impacts to support a denial as required by state law. Mr. Powers felt the Planning Commission abused its discretion and ignored the substantial evidence in favor of the project by refusing to approve and recommend approval of the entitlements. He noted California has a housing supply and affordability crisis of historic proportions. He respectfully requested City Council overturn the Planning Commission's decision and approve the project. Kelly Buffa, representing the applicant, thanked City Council for their time and the work of the staff during the project. She would like to see the City revitalize the commercially unviable site, create housing opportunities, but plan them sensitively to blend into the existing community while advancing City goals. She advised their consultants, the Concord Group, concluded the site is not viable as a commercial development. Ms. Buffa noted several guiding principles included character, sensitivity planning, architectural detail, and affordability. She noted 20% of the units are affordable with no government subsidy. She presented a map of affordable housing in Anaheim. Ms. Buffa advised the project cuts the average daily trips by 56%. She advised there would be no impact on emergency services, no impacts to local intersections, and increased pedestrian safety. She reported the project is legally justified, environmentally sound, and is the right thing to do for the parcel.
