The committee should make its recommendations to the City Council as soon after January 1, 1967 as possible. 3. No major expenditures should be made or any lots sold until after some decision is made on the question of urban renewal. Persons using the Recreation Building at 113 West Chartress Street should be given permission to park in the adjacent parking lot for as long as they are using the building. This lot is Lot No. 10. Councilman Chandler moved that said report be approved, and that the City Council concur in the foregoing recommendations. Relative to Recommendation No. 4, Mr. Davis called attention to request of Mr. Charles A. Viscounty, President of Anaheim Senior Citizens' Club, to permit use of the parking lot adjacent to the City owned Recreation Building at 113 West Chartres Street, by members of the Senior Citizens' Club during their meetings, generally exceeding the two-hour parking limit. He further noted similar request for programs conducted at the City Personnel Building located at the northwest corner of Broadway and Anaheim Boulevard (former Central Library), and advised that parking in that area is inadequate to allow deviation from the two-hour limit. Parks and Recreation Director John Collier reported that several eight week classes are conducted at the latter location, which are in session approximately two to three hours, having an average attendance of twenty-five persons. He suggested that an automobile identification sticker be issued to those attending the classes. Mr. Davis reiterated the problems of enforcement, and noted that the recommendations did not include any change in the area of the Personnel Building.

Plan by relocating the fire station symbol presently located on the west side of Euclid Street north of the Santa Ana Freeway, to the east side of Loara Street immediately north of the flood control channel, approximately midway between North Street and Catalpa Avenue~ Said amendment was recommended for approval by the City Planning Commission. It was noted that one of the members of the City Council was not present this evening, and thereupon, it was moved by Councilman Chandler, seconded by Councilman Pebley that public hearing be continued to November 22, 1966, 1:30 PoMo Mr. Richard Berg, 1261 Catalpa Street, inquired whether a determina- tion would be made on November 22. He briefed the opposition to the proposed location of the fire station, stated at the previous hearing, and requested that the continued hearing be scheduled for 7:00 P.Mo to allow interested parties to attend. In response to Mayor Krein:s question, five persons indicated their presence in the Council Chamber for subject public hearing. On motion by Councilman Chandler, seconded by Councilman Pebley, the motion to continue said public hearing to November 22, 1966 was reaffirmed changing the time thereof to 7:00 PoMo MOTION CARRIED. A gentleman in the audience requested that information be made available at the November 22nd hearing regarding any former plans for a park site on the property in question, and asked whether the existing Sage Park to the east had ever been projected to be expanded westerly to Loara Street~ The Assistant City Manager reported that such information would be made available~ Mrs~ Randy Milleville, 809 North Loara Street, inquired whether a cost estimate for widening Loara Street, should the fire station be located there, was available, noting the 26 foot width of the pavement on the bridge over the Orange County Flood Control Channel~ Mr. Davis advised that the fire equipment could operate on Loara Street without the necessity of widening; however, the street immediately in front of the property in question would be widened and improved. PUBLIC HEARING - VARIANCE NO. 1825~ Submitted by Albert Kevorkian requesting waivers of minimum building site area per dwelling unit, maximum building height, minimum side yard setback, minimum number of covered parking spaces, minimum parking space size, maximum permitted density, minimum floor area per dwelling unit and screen planting, for multiple family residential development on R-3 zoned property, located at the west end of and abutting Julianna Avenue, east of Citron Street and north of La Palma Avenue. The City Planning Commission pursuant to Resolution No. PC66-121 denied said variance. Appeal from action taken by the City Planning Commission was filed by Mr. Stanley J. Scherer, Developer, and public hearing scheduled this date. Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson noted the location of subject property and the existing uses and zoning in the immediate area, calling attention to multiple family residential use of lands surrounding the parcel with the exception of a single family development adjacent on the east. He noted the waivers originally requested on subject application, and noted that revised plans considered by the Planning Commission eliminated all 9783 City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 9~ 1966~ 1:30 PoMo except building and structural heights and yard and building setbacks; that a separate waiver would be required for the proposed open carports. Mr. Thompson called attention to findings of the City Planning Commission in denying subject variance. In response to Council questioning, Mr. Thompson reported that a 20-foot alley running east from Citron Street at the northerly end of subject property had been dedicated for approximately 4.62 feet addition from subject property, while the balance of the alley was developed to the 20-foot city standards. That it would be the intent of the city to abandon this additional dedication. Mayor Krein asked if the applicant or his representative wished to address the City Council. Mr. Stanley J. Scherer, Authorized Agent, 2043 Minerva Avenue, noted the R-3 zoning on three sides of the property, and advised that the R-1 area to the east was designated as future multiple family residential on the General Plan. Concerning the dedication for the extension of Julianna Street through the parcel, as recommended by the Interdepartmental Committee, Mr. Scherer noted the existing easement over the easterly 8 feet of the property, and advised that to dedicate 42 feet for the street would con- siderably reduce the property and would allow access to the proposed development through a single family residential area. Mr. Scherer further advised that the development had been re- designed to more closely conform to recommendations of the staff and suggestions of the Planning Commission, and he noted that there were ten two-story buildings proposed which would be within 150 feet of the R-1 area. He called attention to several existing two-story apartments in the immediate area which were located within 150 feet of the R-1 properties. Plans and the file were reviewed by the City Council, and the Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the Council in opposition. Mr. Don Parsons, 700 West Julianna Street, east of subject pro- perty, recognized the applicant's right to develop multiple-family units, however, expressed opposition to a two-story apartment development next to his home, and to the additional problems such as traffic which would be generated by the proposed high density development. He described the permanent nature of the home owners in the area, and requested that two- story construction be denied. Mrs. Cora Wooldridge, 705 West Julianna Street, concurred with remarks of Mr. Parsons, being of the opinion that their property values would be lowered and their privacy lost as result of the two-story construction. She advised that she prefered the street to be opened through to Citron Street. Councilman Pebley asked how many single-story units could be constructed on the property. Mr. Jim Hodges, Designer of the proposed development, 1731 South Euclid Street, advised that 12 single-story units could be constructed on the property. He noted that R-3 zoning had been established on the parcels a number of years previously~ and the precedent for setbacks and distances between two-story apartments and the R-1 development had been established by previous construction in the area. Mr. Hodges noted provisions made for privacy of the future tenants from each other ~nd from the adjoining properties, and further noted the differences between present R-3 standards and those in existance when the zoning was first established. He advised that the windows of buildings facing the single-family area would be 16 feet from the property line, including 6-foot balconies, and only two homes would be affected by the requested waiver of the 150 foot limit, both of which had garages on the west side of their lots. 9784 City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 9~ 1966~ 1:30 P.Mo Mr. Hodges protested the requirement of a 42 foot dedication for the expansion of Julianna Street, being of the opinion that such dedication would cause extreme hardship to the developer= He noted that the front entrance to the development would be on the west, and a pedestrian passage way to Julianna Street was proposed on the east side, which could be eliminated if the Council felt this would cause any inconvenience to the residents on the east. Mr. Hodges failed to see how the property could be feasibly de- veloped, from an economic stand point, without the two-story construction. Mr. Scherer advised that to use single-story development on the property, they would be unable to gain any privacy for their tenants because of the existing two-story developments adjoining the parcel. Mr. Floyd Eggers, 626 West Julianna Street, addressed the Council being of the opinion that apartment dwellers tend to park on the street rather than. in garages provided. He noted that he preferred Julianna Street to be opened to the west. Councilman Chandler pointed out that due to existing zoning on the parcel, the developers could proceed with single-story construction, without the requirement of dedication for extension of Julianna Street; that the street would be obtained only if the variance were granted and this reqoirement made a condition of the variance. Mr. Don Parsons stated that the primary objection was to the two- story encroachment, and he urged denial of the variance. He further noted that one of the homes adjacent on the east had two bedrooms facing subject property, in addition to a garage. Mrs. Dorothy Parsons, 700 West Julianna Street, expressed the opinion that one half block on Julianna Street from Citron Street to the subject property was not sufficient to handle traffic generated by the apartment complex. Those persons interested adjourned to the City Engineer's Office to determine among themselves, desirability of the continuation of the street, compared to waiving of two-story height limitation. Later in the meeting, the group returned to the Council Chamber, and Councilman Chandler reported the consensus of opinion was that the opposing parties were basically concerned with the two-story construction. Mayor Krein declared the hearing closed. RESOLUTION NOo 66R-715: Councilman Chandler offered Resolution No. 66R-715 for adoption, sustaining the action taken by the City Planning Commission denying Variance No. 1825. Refer to Resolution Book. A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ANAHEIM DENYING VARIANCE NO. 1825.

PUBLIC HEARING - VARIANCE NOo 1827: Submitted by Doyle Hill and Delmar Jackson requesting waiver of maximum free-standing sign height advertising restaurant; M-1 and P-L zoned property located adjacent to service station parcel at the northwest corner of East Street and Kenwood Avenue, having frontages on both streets (1239 North East Street). 9785 City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - November 9~ 1966~ 1:30 P.M. The City Planning Commission, pursuant to Resolution PC66-91, denied said variance. Appeal from action taken by the City Planning ComMission was filed by F. R. Meckes, proposed restaurant operator, and public hearing scheduled this date. Mr. Thompson noted the location of subject property and the existing uses and zoning in the immediate area. He called attention to two existing service station signs which exceed the 25-foot maximum height established by the Sign Ordinance, both of which were permitted prior to adoption of said ordinance. Also noted were City Planning Commission findings in denying said application, and Mr. Thompson further advised that plans for the sign showed a 56-foot height, with a 415 square feet area, the latter also requiring a waiver. Mayor Krein asked if the petitioner or his representative wished to address the City Council. (Councilman Chandler left the meeting, 8:06 PoM.) Mr. F. R. Meckes, 7852 East Florence Avenue, Downey, advised that the proposed sign could be set back from the street to conform with the Sign Ordinance, and a 50-foot height would be sufficient. He further advised that the reason for choosing subject property for the Pancake Carrousel Restaurant was accessibility and exposure to the Riverside Freeway. He noted restaurants in nearby cities which have large signs attracting business from motorists on freeways. An arti. st rendering of the proposed restaurant was displayed, and Mr. Meckes noted that the building will be oriented to East Street and to the Riverside Freeway; however the property is well below freeway level, and a 25-foot sign would not attract passing traffic. He was of the opinion that the restaurant would be an asset to other businesses in the area, however its potential success depended upon a sign with the height sufficient to attract motorists on the freeway in time to use the off- ramps to East Street. In answer to Councilman Dutton's question concerning the area of the sign, Mr. Meckes advised that the limitations of the Sign Ordinance will be met. Mayor Krein asked if anyone wished to address the City Council in opposition to the proposed sign, there being no response, declared the hearing closed. (Councilman Chandler returned to the meeting, 8:15 PoMo) RESOLUTION NOo 66R-716: Councilman Pebley offered Resolution No. 66R-716 for adoption, granting subject variance, subject to the following condition: 1. That the proposed sign shall be constructed substantially in accordance with plans and specifications on file with the City of Anaheim, marked Exhibit Nos. 1 and 2, provided that the height of said sign shall not exceed 50 feet, and the sign area shall not exceed 350 square feet.
