SECURITY PACIFIC NATIONAL BANK LEASE - AMENDMENT: City Attorney Alan Watts briefly
reviewed the background of .the Joint Powers Agreement with the San Gabriel Valley
Municipal Data System (MDS), advising that in 1974 when the City entered into said
agreement, the MDS was experiencing a problem as a Joint Powers Agency with regard
to whether the interest they paid to acquire the computer was tax exempt. The City
of Anaheim agreed to undertake the responsibility and entered into an agreement with
Security Pacific National Bank to acquire the facility, subject to the lease and
option being transferred to MDS when the tax problems were settled.
Letters had been received from the bonding attorneys for MDS, O'Melveny &
Myers, indicating the basic resolution of the problem, subject to an amendment to
the agreement to provide for an option specifically giving the City the right to
exercise the option on paying the unpaid balance on the equipment, as recommended
by the bonding attorneys.

Sneegas offered Resolution No. 75R-547 for adoption, authorizing'an amendment to

JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT, MDS - AMENDMENT: Mr. Watts reported that in connection with
the earlier Management Practices audit of the Da~a Processing Division, the Arthur
Young & Company had reviewed the agreement between the City and MunicRpal Data System
(MDS) and felt that a "hold harmless" provision should be inserted into the agree~
ment. In his review thereof, he concluded that the hold harmless provision already
contained in the agreement was not as effective as it might be, and a proposed
amendment had been prepared and submitted for Council consideration which would
provide that for any liability to a third party, each Joint Powers Agreement Member
'Entity would bear a liability proportionate to its share of the cost of that opera~
tion. He advised that currently, MDS picks up approximately 55% of these costs,
while the City of Anaheim is responsible for approximately 45%,

loss, but would have no operational responsibility to other cities involved,
except through MDS which is the Joint Powers Agency.

ANAHEIM STADIUM FOOD AND BEVERAGE CONCESSIONAIRm: Stadium, Convention Center and
Golf Course Director Tom Liegler reported that the contract with Canteen Corpora-
tion for the food and beverage concession at Anaheim Stadium will expire April 9,
1976, and he proposed that a committee consisting of representatives from'the
75-950
City Hail., Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - October 28, !975,
Offices of the City Attorney, City Manager, Anaheim Stadium and the California
Angels immediately commence interviews with the 14 interested food and beverage
contractors, including Canteen Corporation. He advised that a decision would be
made as to what type of contract would be employed, a management fee, flat per-
centage or a cost-plus contract. At that time the City Council would be requested
to participate in final interviews of the proposed concessionaires selected by
the committee.
In response to question by Councilman Pebley, the City Attorney reported
that in 1966, the City did not go to formal, publicly advertised bidding. Proposals
were solicited from a sizeable number of organizations and the City entered into
a lengthy procedure of selecting prospective concessionaires. At that time there
was a Stadium Commission which was actively involved in the process and advisory
to the City Council.
Mr. Liegler pointed out that at that time, the circumstances were different
in that the prospective bidders were expected to furnish a substantial sum of money
for the installation of equipment, which will become the property of the City of
Anaheim at the end of the contract terms with Canteen Corporation. He recommended
that the next concessionaire contract be for a five-year term to allow sufficient
time for a complete evaluation. He invited Members of the City Council to sit in
on interview sessions with.prospective contractors, stressing that no negotiations
would be taking place during these preliminary interviews.
Discussion was held, and although Councilman Sneegas had considerable experience
in this field, he stated he could not participate in the interviews inasmuch as he
conducted business with several of the interested firms.
Councilman Pebley saw no reason for any Council Member to participate in the
preliminary sessions, with the possible exception of Councilman Sneegas.
The City Attorney concurred that the possibility of Councilman Sneegas' having
a conflict of interest did exist.
Mr. Liegler advised that the Committee would meet and conduct the interviews,
keeping the Council informed of meeting dates and progress.
By general consent, the City Council concurred with the method of interviewing
prospective food and beverage contractors for the Stadium concession and the re-
view with Council with those selected, as outlined by Mr. Liegler.
CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - RECLASSIFICATION NO. 74-75-41 (TRACT NO. 8710): Public
bearing was continued from the meeting of September 30, 1975~ at the request of
the Applicant, Nor'east Plaza, Ltd., requesting rezoning from CL and CH to RM-1200,
to establish a 7-lot subdivision on the west side of Kraemer Boulevard, between
Crowther and Orangethorpe Avenues.
The Deputy City Clerk reported on communication dated October 17, 1975, from
Robert P. Warmington of the Warmington Company, advising that they had entered
into escrow on the property and the owners have authorized them to request with.
drawal of subject reclassification.
On motion by Councilman Pebley, seconded by Councilman Seymour, request to
withdraw Reclassification No. 74-75-41 and Tract No. 8710 was approved. MOTION
CARRIED.
CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING - VARIANCE NO. 2721: Public hearing was continued from the
meeting of October 7, 1975; submitted by E. J. Johnson to construct a free-standing
sign on ML property located at 711 South East Street, with code waivers of: (a)
maximum number of signs, (b) permitted sign location, and (c) minimum distance
between signs.
The City Planning Commission, pursuant to their Resolution No. PC75~181,
found that the Director of the Planning Department has determined that the proposed
activity falls within the definition of Section 3.01, Class 11, of the City of
Anaheim Guidelines to the requirements for environmental impact report, and is,
therefore, categorically exempt from the requirement to file an E,I,R,; and further~
denied Variance No. 2721.

PUBLIC HEARING - ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE - CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO'. 1373: Open Road,
Anaheim, to show cause why Conditional Use Permit No. 1373 permitting the sales
of recreational vehicles at 866 South West Street, should not be revoked for the
reason "the use for which approval was granted has been so exercised so as to
constitute a nuisance".
Report from the Planning Department - Zoning Division - dated October 28, 1975
was submitted for Council consideration, together with verbal report of the City
Attorney advising of recent events leading to this public hearing and that
notice thereof had been personally served on Open Road.
Mr. Walp reviewed the events in chronological order from the time this subject
was discussed with the City Council on April 22, 1975. He advised that due to
numerous complaints received regarding the noise emanating from the Open Road
public address system, even from the north side of the freeway, he had discussed
the situation with both the current Manager, Mrs. Mawr, and Vice President of the
Open Road Corporation, Mr. Hiller. He was informed that the public address system
is turned off at 5:00 P.M. and not used until the following day.
Mr. Walp reported that he and Mr. Kelley visited subject property for the
purpose of taking sound pressure level readings, and on the first occasion there
were no violations. However, on a subsequent occasion a City employee took
readings between 1:15 and 2:15 P.M. at the property line ranging from 63 to 70 dba,
in excess of the 60 dba allowable by Code.
In reply to Mayor Thom, Mr. Bob Kelley advised that when he visited the
property, both music and voice paging were being amplified over the public address
system.
Mayor Thom referred to the Council minutes of April 22, 1975 at which time
the Mmnager of the Open Road facility had agreed to discontinue the playing of
music and to utilize the public address system for voice page of salesmen only.
Apparently, according to subsequent investigation, Open Road Recreational Vehicles
has not lived up to their word.
Councilman Pebley noted that if the prime function of the address system is
to page salesmen for telephone calls, etc., this facility should investigate the
possible use of radio page units for each salesman rather than a public address
system.
It was reported by staff members that this suggestion had been made as well
as the use of a bell or chime system similar to that used in department ~tores.
Mr. Kelley also advised that another option pointed out to the management was re-
design of the existing public address system to change the situation from one
l'arge speaker pointing outward from the center of the property to several smaller
speakers located at the perimeter and pointed inward.
Mr. Walp stressed that a considerable amount of City employees' time has
been involved in the receipt and investigation of complaints relative to this
noise problem.
The Mayor asked if a representative of Open Road Recreational Vehicles was
present.
Mr. Stanley Heller, Vice President, Open Road Industries, advised that they do
intend to be a good neighbor and wished to be cooperative, recognizing that this
is a commercial establishment and the three-acre parcel is very long, In order to
be able to reach sales people on the site from the office, a speaking system or
paging'system of some type is necessary. He reported that he has had meetings as
far back as one year ago with members of the City personnel to investigate the
complaints, and on these occasions he thought it was agreed that there was no
75-952
City Hall, Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - October 28,. 1975~. 1:30 P.M.
violation. He stated that it was not until he received notice of this public
hearing that he was aware there were problems once again. He stated that the
controls for the amplification system are located in the warehouse and are not
easily accessible.
In response to Council questions, Mr. Heller advised that the installation
of smaller speakers on the perimeter of the property would be very expensive and
not a feasible solution. Re advised that he was willing to make a corporate
commitment that no music would be played over the amplification system and that
it would be utilized only for the purpose of paging.
The Mayor advised that this is essentially the same agreement made last
April by the Manager at that time at the facility and has not alleviated the
problem.
During Council discussion of the possibility that they might add a condition
to the conditional use permit to preclude the playing of music over the loud
speakers at this facility, Councilman Snee§as stated that he did not think it
fair to subject the surrounding residential properties to even the paging system~
particularly on Sundays and Holidays as this is~equally annoying. He remarked that
it would be a much better solution for the Open Road facility to use a paging
method which would not create a noise problem for anyone, such as the individual
radio page units suggested earlier.
Mr. Heller stated that he would live up to the commitment made that no music
would be played on the speakers and requested that this matter be deferred to
another meeting so that he might have an opportunity to investigate alternative
methods of paging the salesmen.
Councilman Seymour added to the discussion that he never voted in favor of
this conditional use permit in the first place, but recognizes now that it is
established it does have a right to do business. However, he stated that he con-
curred with Councilman Sneegas' remarks that the residents also have rights and
their environment should be protected.
In additional discussion the Council Members determined that there WOuld be
no logic in continuing the decision on this matter to another meeting, when the
intent of their action is to remove the use of the outdoor public address system
at subject property since it has been demonstrated over the past year that
adequate controls cannot be maintained over the use of same.
Councilman Sneegas clarified that the intent of the Council's action would
be to prohibit an amplification system directed to the outside of the facility,
and that this would not restrict use of speakers, etc., in the interior of the
offices and sales building.
RESOLUTION NO. 75R-552: Councilwoman Kaywood offered Resolution No. 75R-552 for
adoption adding the following condition to those conditions imposed pursuant to
Planning Commission Resolution No. PC73-31 which granted Conditional Use Permit
No. 1373 in part: "That a public address system, intended to amplify and broad-
cast music, verbal messages or other audio-communications on the outside of the
buildings on subject property or intended to be audible outside said buildings,
shall not be permitted in connection with the activity authorized under this
conditional use permit.

A;iAIU) OF C()llTiL,\CT - i,*Oilil O&'!q~.~, ilO. q59: ~lrs. Roberts reported that in view of
t}~e fact tlmt the low bidder for ;fork Order ~o. 359 did not submit a bond,
cashier's check, certified ch,ack or cash with his bid, the City Engineer
reco:n:~ended the contract for traffic signal raodification and safety ].ightinl~;
installation at the intersection of l'~uclid Street and Roi.meya Drive be swathed
to tlm second low bidder, Baxter-Griffin Co~tpany, Inc. at
~[r. ~,:atts reported that for so:-te reason .th. ese jobs were not listed on tl~e
"green sheet" used by bidders for infor~aation on such contracts, and
consequently had very little notice. One of the two bidders was unable to get
tlm bid bond fro~a his bonding company in ti~,~e to submit it together wit]~ tl~e
bid. -i.;r..,"arts advised t!~at tile Council has two alternatives: 1) award the'
contract to the second low bidder as recommended by the City Engineer; or 2)
reject all bids and readvertise tile .]o!~.
Upon ascertaining fr°n the City Engineer that it would ta1:e an additional
ten weel:.s to readvertise, open bids and make ne~z recommendations for the award
of this contract, and recognizing that there was some uraency to complete this
modification and lighting installation due to the lengthy petition submitted in
connection therewith; further recognizing the differential in cost between the
low and second low bid is approxinmtely $509, the Council felt it more reason-
able to accept the City Enl;ineer's reco::~mendation.
Councilman Snee~as was concerned, however, that if the contractor had not
been sufficiently notified, this was beyond his control and he did not wish him
to lose a contract because of any error on the City's part.
i'lr. ~latts explained that he did not zman to imply there was any mistake on
the City's part, that the "green sheet" is a private organization which
presents bid infomnation in an informal business operatinc situation, and that
it is no fault of the City t]tat the information was not contained in that
publication.
~'lr. Watts counseled against accepting the low bid in this situation
inasmuch as, in his opinion, the bidder failed to supply a material part of the
bid and this could not be construed a technical error.

TRACT NO. 7417 - RZ,~UEST FOR T,gSU~Qi oF BUILoING PE~,~iITS: Jlequest submitted by
lit. Leonard Goodman, Pacesettar Horaes, Inc., 4540 Campus Drive, Newport Beach,
California, for issuance of 12 building permits for homes in Tract No. 7417
currently being withheld by the Planning Department was submitted together with
tile Cormaunity Noise Study and addendum thereto prepared by the Division of
Environmental ]iealtl~ of the Orange County iiealth Department and report froze the
City Planning i)epartment relative to the noise impact to be expected by
residents of said tract.
fir. Goodman stated that Tract No. 7417 was approved oil. December lt), 1974,
,'~ubject to the noise impact analysis prepared by Purcelle, Noppe & Associates,
Inc., their acoustical consultant, lie advised that 33 out of 50 building
permits were approved for Phase I of this tract on August 15, lr~75 and since
tlmy have spent considerable time meeting witl~ City Staff anti tlte Orange County
ilcalth Department regarding the sound impact on the remaining 12 lots.
Subsequent to this, he advised that his company has agreed to elevate the
existing wall 4 feet; and to alleviate any concern that the required 45 db C:~EL
is met indoors with doors and windows closed, they have agreed to install air
conditioning in those i~omes located within 2'.')o, feet of the railroad rigl~t-of-
wa f.
In response to Councilwmqan Kaywood's question regarding the sound levels
to be achieved for out of doors, Nr. Goodman stated that there would be tiiaes
when the sound level is above 65 db C,.~EL, but generally from the readings they
]~ave taken they feel the 65 db C:~EL can be achieved.
P]totographs submitted by City Staff to demonstrate the wall situation were
reviexzed by Council ilembers.
:Ir. Jack Purcelle, Purcelle, Noppe & Associates, 21905 Devonshire Street,
C]~atsworth, 91311, advised that his acoustical consulting firm was first
employed by Pacesetter ~iomas to assist in the evaluation of a site located one-
quarter mile to the west of subject property, alon[i which the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe ',rain freight lines are contiguous. They took a series of noise
measurements at that location based upon which certain recommendations
concerning construction were ,made for the purpose of sound attenuation.
Mr. Purcelle stated that subsequently, in 1974, they were asked to consult
on noise mitigation measures for Tract No. 7417. They took an additional
series of sound level readings at this site whicl~ were identical with those
75-957
City ilall~ Anahei~:~ California - COUi~CIL HIi~'OTL'S - October 2~I 1975.~ 1:3~ P.~.
previously registered, ile stressed that both series of readinos were done
~i~rinj dayti~ae hours.
Therefore they reco~ended that the sane noise miti'~ation measures
e,~ployed in the construction of the ho~:~es within Tract No. 7417. Included in
~l~ese reco~aendations was the construction of a barrier located midway between
the last row of houses and the railroad tracks. The design of this acoustical
barrier was such that it would destroy the line of sight between the railroad
and an observer standing on the lot upon which the houses arc to be con-
structed. Subsequent to construction of the wall they were informed that t]~is
did not destroy the line of sight to the trains and consequently the Orange
County liealth Department was called in to review the situation and take sound
level readings.
:ir. Purcelle advised that the sound readings taken by the County were clone
at nigi~t and disclosed that the trains at night utilize more engines and aarry
]~eavier loads resulting in sound readings 4 to 6 db higher than the previous
series. ~. Purcelle stated that trains are the only transit vehicle not con-
trolled by state and/or federal legislation to restrict noise e~aissions.
i~lr. Purcelle concluded that based on the data obtained over the long run, the
noise environment is stable within the design objectives, tie advised that they
!~ave co~i]pared their measurements with those done for other railroad situations
and these are rer~arkably similar, lie offered to cite literature on the
subject.
In response to Councilwo~:mn Ka~ood, ~. Purcelle explained that the
existing wall is approxinmtely 90 inches high, and it is reco~ended that four
feet be added to this.
During discussion Councilwoman Ka~ood pointed out that it is plainly
obvious from the photographs that since the track is visible the train will
also be visible when it passes. She noted that presently 30 trains per day
pass by this site and this is expected to increase, creating an untenable
living environment. She also noted that there is a siding track at this
juncture so that the trains do more than go by in a few seconds.
i.~. Purcelle responded that the wall does break the line of sight as was
required from the 12 rear most lots. lie indicated that the photographs
submitted by staff were taken from further away, for which area there is no
need to shield the line of sight.
12yor Thom noted that in the acoustical consultant's opinion, the four-
foot addition to the existing wall would meet the intent of the requirement for
noise buffering, lie inquired whether it is City Staff's opinion that the noise
~aitigation requirements recommended by the acoustical consultant would do the
job.
lir. Robert Kelley indicated that he did not think the proposed wall would
accomplish the required reduction, but that it would require extensive sound
level measurements over a long period of time to prove this statement.
Councilman Seymour stated that it appears the developer attempted to
perfoma minin~um job requirements and now that these appear insufficient because
of the conditions disclosed, he is requesting that the Council waive some of
the requirements. He remarked that he feels these are minimum requirements and
should be upheld.
~. Purcelle urged that the Council defer decision and take the
opportunity to visit the site. lie contended this would demonstrate that
standing 50 feet from the wall, which is 100 feet from the railroad track, the
train would not be visible and therefore the train could not be viewed from
these 12 homes in question.
t~. Goodman stated that this wall was built prior to HUD guidelines being
established, based on the facts available at that time. lie. indicated that he
was aware the wall would not have been approved as it is under current regula-
tions, but that at the time Tract No. 7417 was approved there were different
guidelines.
.........Cit~, HallI Anaheinl California - COO,'CIL HIi.;UTiiS - October 23~ 1975~ l:3q P.ll.
Hr. Kelley advised that HUi) zuidelines ~ere in existence loni:; before this
project, lie further noted that tim IIUD requirement is tl~at there be sight line
screenin$ from a distance of 600 feet from tls railroad track and not just the
first 2~)3 feet as stated earlier.
ilr. Goodman contenged that althou~;h tl~e ~all ~ould not be approved m~der
current regulations, it meets tim intent of ~¢hat Council approved in December
I'77 4.
.~lr. Purcelle remarked that tls primary purpose of the wall is to act as an
acoustic barrier and not a line-of-:;i:~ht sliield he exp±aine~ the mechanics of
tim wall as it would reelect and redirect tlte noise from ti~ose structures lyinc
s, ithin its acoustical shadow.
At t!le conclusion of discussion, on motion by Councillaan Thom, seconded by
Councilrmn Seyvaour, the City Council denied the request for issuance of the 12
builuzno permits for Tract k~. 7417, based on the determination that tls
existin'G wall with the proposed 4-foot addition uo~ld not provide a line of
si'silt i;arrier as specified in the ilUD guidelines. HoTI~X CARRIED.
