The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No~ PC67-222, recommended said reclassification be denied, and pursuant to Resolution Nee 'PC67-223 denied Conditional Use Permit No. 967~ Mro Ronald Thompson, with the aid of a sectional map, noted the location of subject property and reported existing uses and zoning in the immediate area~ In briefly summarizing the hearing held before the City Planning Commission, Mro Thompson called attention to the fact that subject area was considered in the "Front-On Study" wherein it is recommended that the present residential use be retained° Slides picturing the property and the immediate area were shown° The Mayor asked if the applicant, or his agent, wished to address the Council. Mr. Dave Collins, agent for the applicant, reported that the struc- ture was one that would require very little outside change for the type of business requested, and further reported the minor alterations required. Reference was made to petition of approval, signed by the majority of the nearby neighbors. Mr. Collins called attention to the effect the opening or exten- sion of La Palma Avenue bad cn the residential property by the substantial increase in traffic. With reference t~:~ the "Front-On Study," Mr~ Collins stated that there are properties not shown in the "Front.~On Study~" presently being used for commercial pu~oses. He felt that the "Front=On Study" was defi= cient in that it was impossible to provide acoustical isolation and only visual isolation could be provided. It was his fnrther opinion that the granting ef subject applica~ tiens would be consistent with Council p~licieso Councilman Duttcn referred tc the "Front=On Study", which was accepted by the City Council as recommended, and felt that the granting of s~bject applications would establish a precedent for all homes facing La Palma Avenue, and deter the ultimate development of the downtown area. Mr~ Collins felt that high~rise will develop only when there is a market for it, and that limiting to commercial those homes on arterial highways recc~mmended in the "Front-On Study" would not create a market for high~rise development: Further, that the price of land for high=rise develop- ment was not a significant factor. The Mayor asked if anyone else wished to address the Council. Mr~ Bob Martin~ owner of property immediately west of subject pro= perty, addressed the Council, favoring subject applications, and advised that~ in his opinion, the encroachment cf a proposed high~rise development across the street from their properties would make their properties even- tually desirable for commercial use~ The Mayor asked if anyone else wished to address the Council, there being nc response, declared the hearing clcsedo RESOLUTION Nee 67R-679~ Councilman Dutton offered Resolution No~ 67R-679 for adoption, denying Reclassification No~ 67=68~25o Refer to Resolution Book~ A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM FINDING AND DETERMIN- ING THAT A CHANGE OF ZONE SHOULD NOT BE GRANTED IN A CERTAIN AREA OF THE CITY HEREINAFTER DESCRIBED° (6'7~68~25)~ 10516 City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES ~ December 12, 1967, 1:30 P.M.

In answer to Councilman Dutton's question, Mr0 Thompson reported that no formula criteria has been developed to determine proper location for mobile home parks, however, in this city, they have been developed Characteristically in areas designated appropriate for multiple=family housing~ The Mayor invited the applicant to address the Council~ Mr~ Norman Smedegaard, Attorney, 891 North Broadway, Santa Ana, rep- resenting the applicant, addressed the Council presenting two artist renderings of the proposed mobile home park° He reported that the applicants have owned the property' £or approximately sixty-~five years, and if allowed this use, they would continue to own. the preperty~ develop, and operate the park, as this was 10517 ~ity Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES -~ December ]2, 1967~ 1:30 not a speculative venture~ He further explained that the park would be operated as a priv'ateo mobile home club, forming a non.-profit corporation between the owners and the cc~rporation, and that every tenant would be screened and passed upon by the residents of the park and the owner° Mro Smedegaard briefly explained current changes in mobile home park livi. ng~ and read excerpts from a survey made by the Orange County Planning Department, relative to the modern park~ Mro Smedegaard reported that the park would be incorporated under the name cf "Anabeim Mobile Estates Club~" and there would be thirty acres of all improved and maintained land added to the City, without expense t~ the City c,f Anaheimo He stats, d that density t~ him meant "people," and there would be no more than twc~ pe~ple per space~ or eighteen people per acre, compared to as much as tweptv~-[~ur people per acre in a normal subdivision° In addition, there would be fewer autom~:~biles in 'the area, and compared to the normal subdivisi~:~n, between two h~ndred and fifty and two hundred and seventy.-~five less ¢.hildren in the area° Mr~ Smedegaard was ~f the opinion, that if the requested use wa~ not approved, Anaheim people desiring this type of living will go elsewhere, and that there is a definite need for this type of housing in Anaheim. He noted also that all r~reati~n will be provided by the park; that there will be no burden on the schc~cls, and all construction will be single-story in height, with a six...f.:>ct block wall surrounding the property, with all underground facilities~ Reference was mada. tc approximately fifteen letters of approval on file, including the f~llcwing~ William Eo Plinck, DoD°S° (adjacent: property owner) 2. Paul W~ C,:~ak, Superintendent,Anaheim Union High School District 3. Robert~ E. Shank. s~ Superintendent, Anaheim School District Reference was made t,~ the pl. an> indicating space between units, and other pertinent details~ Mr. Smedegaard called attentiom to a water well located c.n the property~ which the prop,i~nents were willing to give to the City of Anabeim~ requiring only that the pipes and motors be placed underground. Letter from Water Superintendent, Gus Lenain, was read~ recommend- ing acceptance of the water well, and that it be added to the City system, in the event the contemplated development takes place° In summary, Mro Smedegaard was of the opinion that this would be a very fine~ singleofamily residential development of the highest calibre; that it would be six or seven people less in density per acre, resulting in fewer cars and substantial savings to the City in developing the property. In answer to Councilman Krein~s questioning, Mr. Murdoch reported on the tax str~cture cf mobile homes as compared to single-family residen- tial development, and advised that although a comparison had not yet been made, it appeared ts~ him that the assessed valuation, acre=per-acre for the proposed mobile home development would be substantially less than if devel- oped for single-family residential~ Further discussion was held relative to the plan, and Mr. Smede- gaard advised that they would be willing to enter into an agreement with the City of Anaheim, agreeing not to rent to anyone less than eighteen years of age. In his opinion, such an agreement would be binding, and in turn, similar agreements will be executed by the tenantso The Mayor asked if anyone else wished to address the Council. 10518 City Hall, Anaheim, California ~., COL~CIL MINUTES ~ Decem_____~be~ 1~2, 1___9~_~ 1__:30 P.M______~, Mr~ Arnold Gehrls, 889 South Reseda Street, noted if the mobile home park was developed Vermont Avenue would not be extended easterly, and this would provide added protection ts the children in this subdivisicn. Mrs, Stanley Campbell, 2104 Vermont Avenue, favored the proposed use because it would be a development that would not add to the sc.hool burden° Mrs° Barbara Cooper, 25a0 Belmont Court, advised that her home was across the street from the mobile home park at Sunkist and La Pa]ma Avenues, and further advised that if! she had her choice of neighbors she would choose those living in a mobile b~me pa~k~ Mrs, Dor~;,thy Cr~:w, Z]d:' ~:.ast Verm~?.nt Avenue, favoured the requested use,being cf the opini~.n that the- sz~ w~2uld remain quiet and be pr~.;tected by the trailer ,t-ourt Mr~ Bob Martin, representing the se:mi~,zet~ired who plan tc move into a mobile home, called attention tc the scarcity cf parks in Anaheim, and the need for adequate, high.,.ciass mob~]e h~>me parks= He advised that they pres= ently were interested in a 20? x 60: coach~ costi, ng approximately $15,000o00, representing a sizeable ~nvestment and reasonable tax. In conclusion, Mrs, Martin stated he favored the proposed mobile home park and felt that many ~tk~rs in Anaheim were of the same opinion° Mrs° Ra]ph Biester, Z2.510imstead Way, addressed the Council, ad- vising that the residency of t:he developed area was four per acre, and the density of the prop43sed trailer park is 10~9 per acre, which is higher than the Bank of America Mobile Home Repc, rt~ recommending a maximum of 8 per acre° Mrs. Biester rep,zrced t~n taxing information ~pbtained from the County Assessor's Office. pertaining to rea1 property, comparing taxes at 2% of Blue Book value for trailer parks~ Reference was also made to survey of Orange County Planning Department indicating that the Anaheim area exceeds in park facilities, compared tc ~eighb:)ring communities, and those establisbed do not border sin. gle~.family hom~s. Mrs, Bie:ster reported cn projected school population and advised of the possible traffic hazard created by the establishment of a park at this locationo In conclusion, Mrs. Biester was of the opinion that the City could not force the renting to adults only; if the park did not rent she believed it would lift this restriction° She noted that the purchase of a home was, in all probability, the largest investment that a person makes, and that they purchased their home only' after being assured that the vacant area around was zoned for single~.f~mily ho~nes~ She thereupon requested that sub- ject applications be denied° Slides were shown o£ the homes in the adjacent subdivision to sub- ject property and alsc~ of certain mobile home parks in the City of Anaheim. Mr. Jim De Mille, 223~ Lizbeth Court~ questioned the compatibility of an adult trailer park, directly across from the school in the area° He called attention, t~ the p~ssible traffic congestion created by those leaving the park for work at the time students were arriving at school° Mro De Mille also advised that prior to purchasing their home they were assured that the area would be retained for single=family homes, and in conclusion, he urged that the request be denied, Mr. Dick Mc Millan, 92~ South Peregrine, referred to the slides showing that most of the homes were two-story construction, and noted that the park was proposed for single=level. Taking into consideration the pos- sible future sale of his home, he was of the opinion that the two-story homes looking down and i~to a mobile home park, ,Tver a series of flat-top trailers, would not add any resale v~loe t~ h~s property. 10519 City Hall~ Anaheim~ California ~ COUNCIL MINUTES ~ December 12~ 1967~ 1:30 P.M. Councilman Dutton could not help note that this was the first time a reversal of visual intrusion was made; that normally it was a single-story development that objected to two-story construction, on the basis of invasion of privacy~ Mr. Mc Millan further felt that the activities of the children in their own backyard should not necessarily be curtailed, and could see the possibility of children disturbing adults located directly across from their backyard~ He noted that children at normal play were capable of disturbing older people. In answer to Cc;uncilman Chandler~s question~ with reference to a greater setback from pr~perty lines~ Mr~ Mc Mil]an felt a greater setback could not buffer his view~ Mr~ Russell Roquet, 948 South Peregrine, addressed the Council in opposition to the requested use, being of the opinion that subject property could be developed successfully into single-family homes° Mr. Roquet reported that there were 2,057 homes within an area of approximately 514 net acres, compared to the projected 257 homes on the 30 acres. Mr~ Smedegaard, in rebuttal, noted that the issue of taxes was raised, and the locating of a park in this area would reduce taxes to the City. He asked which had the most value tax-wise, residential or industrial property, and called attention, to other taxes paid by mobile homes, not paid on real property, such as sales tax, annual license, etc~ Mro Smedegaard advised that they were willing to sign an agreement, approved by the City Attorney~ that would be enforceable, and the tenants, in turn, would sign a similar agreement, agreeing to keep the park for adults only. He stated that they would not put the 30~acre development in jeopardy with one child tenant. In conclusion., Mr. Smedegaard stated it was his opinion the requ~as- ted use was a residential use, and that the actual density in people would be less than if the property was developed into a subdivision° He thereupon quested that the use be approved~ It being determined sufficient evidence had been given, the Mayor declared the hearing closed° RESOLUTION NO. 67R-681: Councilman Krein offered Resolution No. 67R-681 for adoption~ denying Conditional Use Permit No. 973.

MAYOR PEBLEY~ Mayor Pebley noted the vacant land east of State College Boulevard, between Ball Road and La Palma Avenue, all under similar circumstances, and was ~f the opinion that the granting of subject request would establish a definite precedentc COUb~ILMAN CHANDLER: Councilman Chandler was of the opinion that in the future the trailer=type of living would be more acceptable than it is now, even to the people present° He felt that those favoring the requested use, based their approval on the p~ssibility that Vermont Avenue would not be extended through their area, and doubted that Vermont Avenue would ever be extended with any' devel©pment~ because of the park site to the east° Coun- cilman Chandler stated he was not prepared to approve a trailer park in this type of area where there was no heavier use than single-family residential or schools~ PUBLIC HEARING RECLASSIFICATION N~P~ 67~-68~29: $~bmitted by' Louis E.

It was agreed by the City Council that such a meeting be scheduled, Tuesday, December 19, 1967, at 10:00 A.M., at the Convention facility. MOSCOW CIRCUS: Councilman Chandler referred to cards of protest received by him, regarding the staging of the Moscow Circus at the Convention Center, and ad- vised that he had no objections to any particular person giving his opinion about the issue, as it is involved. He further advised that he was not neces- sarily referring to those who had sent the cards and letters, that he was di- recting his remarks to the intelligent person who considers the situation and considers his fact that his country has been granted the power to deal with national defense. Further, he was talking about his position as a person who is going to support his government and their program; that he, as a citi- zen of the United States, must support it, however, he did not necessarily always agree, and when he did not agree, he would make it felt at the polls, where it should be felt, and that the Moscow Circus was not a local issue. The people who are embarked upon the national defense are in the national government and are voted upon by the people, and everything that is done in this area is the responsibility of every single citizen, as much as it was his responsibility. 10530 City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES December 12~ 1967~ 1:30 P.Mi Councilman Chandler further reported that some of the cards he received contained a direct reference to his being a "Commie," and as far as the ladies are concerned, who might have said that, he would reserve his opinion as to whether they were ladies, and as far as any man who might have said that, who is anywhere near his heavy and size, regardless of what the situation is, he had better not make such a remark to his face, when he was off the Council bench. He felt that the people sending the letters and cards were a bit overwrought, and suggested they go to the box office and see the vote of the people, concerning the activities of the Federal Government and this entertainment exchange program, for as he under- stood, there has already been $50,000.00 in advance sale of tickets, and to him, these were the people talking, and not necessarily the people who wrote the dirty, smear letters. Councilman Dutton advised that as a result of his investigation, the signatures signed to the cards and letters, in most instances were fic- titious, so it was evident that the writers were hiding behind anonymity. WEED ABATEMENT CHARGES: The City Manager reported on preliminary investigation as result of complaints received regarding the method of giving notice and the amounts charged for the removing of rubbish from properties in conjunc- tion with the removal of weeds and rank growth. SETTLEMENT - ANTI-TRUST LITIGATION~ PIPE MANUFACTURERS: On report from the City Attorney, it was moved by Councilman Dutton, seconded by Councilman Krein, that the additional $6,063.00 received in the settlement of the anti-trust suit, Western Pipe Case, be placed in the Capital Improvement Fund.
