M. He added that the Applicant had indicated an intent to construct a service station at the intersection of Lakeview and Riverdale Avenues, and later develop a shopping center complex around the station, consisting of a bank, market and a variety of retail shops. Mr. Roberts further noted that the General Plan indicates a neigh- borhood shopping center would be appropriate for this area; however, the Anaheim Municipal Code requires that in the Scenic Corridor Overlay Zone a service station is to be integrated with a shopping center at the time of construction. He thereupon read the findings of the City Planning Commission, on which their recommendation was based. Mayor Dacron asked if the Applicant or his Agent was present and wished to address the Council. LeRoy Rose, 1440 South State College Boulevard, Architect, advised th at they will comply with the Code and build the shopping center at the same time that the service station is built; also, that all Code requirements are met in the plans for the shopping center and no waivers requested. He noted that thus far the Applicant has dedicated over an acre of his property for street widening purposes without compensation, and pre- sented a letter to the Applicant from the Right-of-Way Department, dated December 29, 1971, acknowledging such dedication. Mr. Rose stated that subject property is located near the offramp of the Riverside Freeway at the Lakeview Avenue turnoff, and that Lakeview Avenue is a 102-foot wide, major thoroughfare, connecting the Riverside Freeway to Imperial Highway; that there is a hospital under construction immediately to the north, and a proposed medical complex immediately to the west. He added that the proposed shopping center would not create any traffic hazards fo.r elementary school children, since those west of the in- tersection attend Riverdale Elementary School, and those to the east are bussed to school. Mro Rose. displayed elevations and sketches and stated that the proposed stropping center would be a town and country-type development, com- patible with the stxrro~inding area. Disputing statements in a petition presented to the City Planning Commission, and a Letter dated October 18, 1971, opposing the proposed de- velopment, Mr. Rose str_~ted that the service station would be open from 6:00 A. M, to 10:00 P.M. csnly, and not on a 24-hour basis; that thus far they have indicated only a market and bank, in addition to the service station; that the shopping are_cs at Santa Ana Canyon Road and Imperial Highway, and also at Tef`ferson .`street, ~•,outh of Riverdale Avenue are simple construction and small ir. si7e5 which may be r_he reason they are not succeeding. He pointed. out i. he «rea covered by signers of the petition, most of which are outside the ~:.,+:)00-foo+ radius. "1r. Roc pr~senteci the Council a petition favoring the proposal, ptcrport~.dl~~ .:~~x~t-ainisi~. over 406 signatures of people from the same area as the opposint; pc:titior.. He ccmtendec's. thk_ proposed shopping center would be a convenience center and not a major shopping center. He expressed the opinion persons knowing of the existence of a shopping center and a hospital in an area may induce people co b~.ty' their homes there.

In reply to t.omcil questioning, Mr. Brown advised he lived ap- p:-cximately one block r~:~st c~: subject property. Sally Rock. t,lt~;i r;ast Addington Drive, stated the Applicant had a~xpressed a desire t ~ ,°-~~ committee of homeowners take a poll i.n the area =+s to what is wanted i.~~ `, proposed center, if it should be approved, and has said he is willi,A~c (-r; pE.,t in what is desired. She advised that a branch library and post of:Ei.<~~ were two things desired. pion. mhe May*or ~ }c<•,l i ~: anyone wished to address the Council in npposi- Hersel Claudi=r, i"'l. North R.edrock Street, representing the Santa Ana Canyon Improvemer,r Assr~ciation, contended some of the speakers in favor ,~, ~ this }7~oposal li.v.~r },, frond the area in which they had signatures in oppo- ..~ion, He stated th;_ ;~.-~~;~ary objection to the proposal was the service sta- tion, because the State then would put up a sign on the Freeway indicating the turnoff and that su: ?. sr;.r-~T ces are available, and this would bring additional traffic which would c;~eate }iazards for junior high school students crossing Freeway feeder streets. Mr. Clauder stated at the City Planning Commission meeting, Mr. Sugarman, Agent for t.}~ ho~pi,tal now under construction, had expressed a desire to purchase :~uhj<~ct };roperty for use as a walled-in parking area, but had not been able to reac}~ the owner. He asked what mould prevent the service station operator from either operating nn a 24-hour basis or. requestin;; permission to do so in the future. He was advised by the City Attorney that the station would be gov- c.rncd by the zoning on t:he property; that in a conditional use permit certain conditions regulating the activity can be imposed. Mr. Clauder state; that their organization had been requesting hom~>o~m ers in the area to express their opinion on issues involving the Can- yon area, and none of those in favor of subject application had done so, and a research of the area showed residents not only did not want the proposed shopping center, but would boycott it, if constructed. He stated his group represented approximately 3,500 people, which would be about 1,600 voters in the Canyon area who did not want a service station anywhere in the area. In answer to Council questioning, Mr. Clauder advised they would be willing to listen to other proposals that do nat include a service sta- tion; personally, he would be more in favor of the shopping center, without *_he service station; that the Villa Park shopping center was objected to ,and Ts~ljc~:~ boycotted, it Failed. Councilman Pebley asked if the medical offices to the west of sub- ject: property have been approved, and if adequate parking for that and the hospital are provided in the plans. Mr. Roberts advised that the zoning for the medical offices has br~~:~n <<:;~roved; th:~t: 130 na,,}: ng spaces are required fcr the hospital, and OF }=or r_he medical office complex, and plans indicate 450 spaces will be pro»ided, although 7F of `'~~~ spaces indicated for the medical complex would he ~~~}Zer.e the hospita}_ would bc~ built. Councilman Roth no~:ed tt;at the Santa Ana Canyon Improvement Asso- :_<~~ion recently i~~~ c,i?~c~~ed tr:~ct proposal on the basis that i,t u~d not: f:~ i l n=a the General ;" ,^ . <~.,_:. :pow are opposing a shopping center that is in corr.=r^~?nce ~incl in .c:,~=.i ~n ..~7i~ 1~ener~ai Flan. 7?-:3` City Hall, Anaheim t'~,1 ~.{>rnia - COUNCIL MINUTES - ,rani.aary 18, 1972, 1; 3(l P.M, Bob i;~~j.teen. 4831 McKinnon Drive, and Mr, Clauder both stated they were oppose: to the tract in question because the requested variance for smaller-sized i.s~ts would have qualified those homes far HUD financing, and because of _~rothc;' such development in the area that was unsatl.sfactory, they did not want t`ie s.tuation repeated, Mr. McQtceen acknowledged that higher-density areas where they have condominiums, mobile homes, and apartments require convenience centers such as is proposes+, 'because they are not mobile; however, homeowners in subject area have from 2 to S cars per family, and thus do not need such serz~ic~c-, He noted that; the majority of the homeowners were primarily opposed to the services ~,:`.~ticm and probably would not take their cars there for ser- vice which, sirc.e t_he station cannot exist on sales of gasoline and oil only would cause the n -it ion to close. He added that service stations change hands frequently, and cited as an example one on Tustin and Riverdale Ave- nues that had c}~a~YS;e<_1 ownership four times, Refers-ins; t ;; a restaurant, Mr, McQiiren contended none Baas needed in the area, ~~.n~_r. the hcspital would have a cafeteria open 24-hours a day, He concluded },i; stating that it has been the aim of the Santa Ana Canyon Im- provement Ass.~c~rai:~ t.o maintain a rural atmosphere throughout the Canyon, Counc;_l.man Poth noted that the average homeowner lives in a home less than six ve~.rs, anal he felt it would be better to reasonably adhere to the General Play; for. .rho area than make changes at the wish of those now liv- ing there. The '~9ayor ~~sked if anyone else wished to address the Council, Lynn Str~,a-r-ma;r, Project Engineer for the hospital to be constructed to the. north c; ;; u}>7c:~;: property, stated what although the parking facili- ties fir the ~ <.;-:~ <,; :,;yci medical complex .re more than adequate, they woc ld like. to eith< ; p,~r~•1;.,;;~_ subject property, or trade other property for it, He noted that most ho~pii-als eventually are short of parking spaces, and with this property they couCd plan for the future, He added that thou property is L-shaped and extends across Lake- view Avenue, anal that. t_he property across Lakeview Avenue eventually is n- tended for addi tiona~ narking. He stated that although the hospital cafeteria would be open to the public 24-hours a day, its primary purpose would be to serve the hospi- tal employees and visitors, In reply to Council questioning, Mr, Sugarman. stated they would like to own subject property for parking area; that a shopping center is not necessary to the hospital and medical complex. He advised he was not addressing the Council to state the hos- pital wished to purchase subject property; however, the hospital. did not need a shopping center but if somebody developed the land in something the residents wanted, the hospital would be in favor of it, The Council reminded him that at one time some of these same residents opposed their hospital proposal, Claude A, Sherwood, Applicant and owner of subject property, stated he was the oldest remaining resident in the area and had owne~3 the property for 20 years, :and before progress pushed them out, grew oranges; that first he had to give up property for Riverdale Avenue when the Co~.inty put that road in; then he was requested to dedicate additional property for a Freeway ramp and to develop Lakeview, which cut through his then. 7 acres of property. Mr. Sherwood averred he never has spoken to Mr. Sugarman, nor been contacted by him or any of his representatives, relative to his pro- perty; also, at no time has the Santa Ana Canyon Improvement Association inquired as to what was planned for subject property, 7~- 36 .Gifu Hall, Anaheim, California -__(;OUNCIL MINUTES - January 18, 1972 1.30 P M He contendF~.d ghat since his property is surrounded by medical fa- cs.lities, the propos~:d development would be logical; that it would not be economically feasible to r..cnstruct a home on the property. In reply r.,. r,~un:~i1 questioning, Mr. Sherwood advised that they had employed Le Roy Rose and Associates as the Architect for the proposed development because he .~lsc was the Architect for the hospital, and thus, both facilities would be harmonious and compatible. Mr. Sherwood statesi the shopping center at Jefferson Street is only a couple of stores, and tluis he felt the shopping center and service station proposed are needed. Councilman Stephenson asked if Mr. Sherwood would be willing to construct the shopping center without the service station. Mr. Sherwoo,-i rep±..ied that the rental from the service station is necessary to build the rer>t ter the shopping center. Also, in reply t:o ouncilman Stephenson, Mr. Sherwood stated that the service station i nef~;ie ? because the closest one is more than a mile away and gets congest==c~ . The Mayor intri.ted Mr. Rose to present a short rebuttal. Mr. Rose stated hE~ believed this location was most logical for the proposed development z~nci ~~e felt a landowner should be able to develop his property as he wishes, z~s long as it conforms to the General Plan. The plans far the hospital were reviewed by the City Council. It was determined sufficient evidence had been presented, and Mayor lhztton declared the liea-~ ing closed. Councilman. Pebll.y noted that the petitions by area residents for and against the proposal had just about the same number of signatures, and also that the General Plan indicates the the project is desirable for this location; therefore, since. the Applicant was not requesting any variances for the project, he felt the application should be approved. Councilman Stephenson expressed the opinion that there presently were enough shopping centers in the Anaheim area, and constructing another may hurt the business of those already in operation, and, since the residents in the locale did not want the service station nor the shopping center, he would be opposed to granting it. Councilman Thom agreed with Councilman Stephenson, and added that he felt the desires of the residents in the area should be deferred to. Councilman Roth noted that developers of the hospital and medical complex have been aware of this requested zoning for several months, and Mr. Sherwood maintains they never have contacted him to purchase subject property; that there was an equal number of persons for the proposal as against it, and since the property is located on two arterial streets and surrounded by a hos- pital and medical office complex, he felt the proposed development was appro- priate. Councilman Pebley stated that if the application is approved,he world like the resolution to reflect the stipulation of the Applicant that the service station would be open only between 6:00 A.M, and 10:00 P.M., and that the shopping center would be built at the same time as the service station. The City Attorney advised that a condition could be imposed that the service station would be open only during those 1'iours; however, since all properties must be treated alike, it was questionable whether it could be en- forced. He added that the Scenic Corridor Zoning Ordinance requires that the shopping center either be constructed at the same time or prior to the service station. 72-3i :ii-v fidll, ~'uzahei:r a ~ ;n nia -- C.'OLTh1CIL MINUTES - aanuar~ 18 172 1: 3U 1',t~l.

MOTION CARRIED. PUBLIC HEARING - RECLASSIFC~:'1'If~l_`°J _N0. 71-72-24: Submitted by the City of Fullerton, requesting a change ~f ~ont~ from R-A to C-1, on property located on the west side of Harbor Boulevard, north of La Palma Avenue. The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution No. PC71-246, recommended said reclassification be denied. Zoning Superv.i>or S:harles Roberts noted the location of subject pro- }rerty, existing uses a-nd rn~:ing in the immediate area. He added that the City f~f Fullerton previc~rsly had requested and been granted C-1 zoning on that por- tion of. their propert~j :=routing on La Palma Avenue; that subject property fronts ~~n :arbor b~~rilevard, and i ~, presently used as Fullerton's Water Well Pumping Station; the expressed intent is to construct a Department of Motor Vehicles office building in the northwest portion of the property, with the remaining land being used for parking and stack-up line for testing, still continuing to use the west portion of the property for water purposes. Mr. Roberts rc,ad the findings of the City Planning Commission, and advised that their concer°n was on the development of the property and not neces- sarily the zoning. Councilman Pebley, noting that the stack-up line for testing ran across the north end of the property where the noise and fumes from idling vehicles could be objectionable to nearby residents, suggested perhaps pro- perty to the west wherE} there are no homes nearby could be used for this pur- pose, rather than as proposed. Mayor Dutton invited the Applicant's Agent to address the Council. William Vasvary, Frllerton Development Services Director, advised that Fullerton had made this application because they desired to exchange subject property for property owned by the State on Valencia Drive, near Euclid Avenue; that if. this zoning application is approved, negotiations on this exchange will proceed. In reply to Councilman Pebley, Mr. Vasvary advised that the plans submitted were those requested by the State; and if approved, they could ne- gotiate screening, walls, etc. He added that the questions posed at the City Planning Commission hearing by nearby residents concerned the number of employees and level of service proposed. He stated that there is no intent, at this time, to in- crease the number of employees above the present 60; that the State desires to increase the level of service, provide additional parking area, and more room to accommodate dealers; that if these facilities are outgrown, it has been the practice of thc~ Sate to split the district and build another facil- ity in another ar~:~a. 7 2- 39 City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 18 1972 1.30 P M In reply t„ Council questioning, Mr. Vasvary advised that the present Department of Motor Vehicles facility has about 87 parking spaces, whereas this proposed one would have 1h6, Also in answer to Council questioning, Mr. Vasvary advised that al- though the new Department of Motor Vehicles facility in Santa Ana is two-stories, they did not increase the number of personnel; that subject property is approxi- mately 4.1 acres, and the land they wish to trade the State is 5 acres; that if the State found the present facility lacks sufficient parking area, Fullerton could lease or sell anar_her half-acre at the northwest corner of the property. Jack Royer, rullerton Municipal Utilities Manager, pointed out the water line locations on the property and advised that if the proposal is ap- proved, the water line across the north end of the property would have to be relocated. In reply to Coiinr_ilman Pebley`s suggestion that property to the west be used for the stack-up line for cars, Mr. Royer pointed out the uses for each section of the property and advised that the new wells to the west were devel- oped in 1958-1959 and. are vital to their water system. Councilman Stephenson suggested other property in the area would bet- ter serve the Department of Motor Vehicles facility. Mr. Royer advised that the State had purchased land adjacent to a site which Fullerton planned to develop as a swimming center; Fullerton had wanted more land, and thus the reason for the exchange of property. Councilman Roth stated he did not think enough parking spaces were provided for the new building and future expansion. Councilman Stephenson. expressed the opinion such a facility would be ob- jectionable to nearby residents. Mayor Dutton asked if anyone else wished to address the Council; there being no response, declared the hearing closed.

Thus, he did not feel he should be expected to post the required bond in this case.

MOTION CARRIED. ELECTRICAL REVENUE BOND ELECTION - LETTER TO THE ANAHEIM BULLETIN: Mayor Dutton stated that there had been a lot of gross misrepresentation printed in the Anaheim Bulletin particularly, regarding statements he has made in connec- tion with the upcoming Electrical Bond Election. He therefore read and re- quested the following letter be printed in full in the City Council Minutes: i 7 2- 47 City Hall, Anaheim, C<lif.ornia - COUNCIL MINUTES - January 18, 1972, 1:30 P.M. "January 18, 1972 The Editor Anaheim Bulletin Anaheim, California Editor: Recent everts in .:t,nnection with the January 18, 1972 special municipal election indicate that: ti:;e time has come for me to separate fact from fiction in regard to my past association with Mr. Jim Townsend. Fact 1: In ~rl~~, a~ the request of the said Mr. Townsend, I met with i~i.m and Anaheim's ther, director of fin ance, Mr. Douglas K. Ogden. Also attend- ing this meeting was a representative of the William R. Staats, Inc. bonding company. The latter -~-gin was interested in providing the financing for Anaheim >tadium to the tune: of ;,'_'1,000,000. The proposal. of th~~ Staats comp any was not accepted by the City, since it was not the best propc~;al. As a result of this action, Townsend made the ,statement to me tha;., "`:.:~. ^.ity Council beat him out of $60,000 finder's fee." Fact 2: Prior ~:~ the bind and councilmanic election of April, 1970, I re_a~l the arguments of the opposition to the bond proposals as written by Jim Townsend. I departed the City Hall and went to the Palms Restaurant (my place of business) where To~ans~nd was apparently waiting for me. I told him that I ;ad just read his object.i.ons to the bond issues. He said, "I was afraid you would." I said to him.. ' `:'ou know they are a bunch of lies." He laughed and said, "I know they are lies, but they sound better that way." Fact 3: C hs;re never known who makes up the Telephone Taxpayers Com- mittee and have nearer approached them for support at any councilmanic election. To the contrary, James Townsend, preceding the April, 1970 election, s~~nght me out many times and offered his peoples' support if I would be his "puppet" -- a p,~siti.on I steadfastly refuse to be put in by anyone. It is my considered opinion that Jim Townsend is a congenital liar -- n~ more to be condemned. than if he were born with a wooden leg. Fact 4: If the above facts can be proved to be not as I have stated them, I will resign from the Anaheim City Council -- a position I value most highly. In closing, my recommendation to Mr. Townsend is that he read and adopt tl,e ~,y~isdam of Jol-in, Chapter 8, Verse 32. (Signed) JACK C.
