PUBLIC HEARING - RECLASSIFICATION NOo 66-67-35: Submitted by the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter Day Saints requesting change of zone from R-A to R-3; pro-
perty located on the south side of South Street, east of State College
Boulevard°
The City Planning Commission pursuant to Resolution No. PC66-142
recommended denial of said reclassification°
Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson noted the location of subject
property and the existing uses and zoning in the immediate area, summarizing
the evidence submitted to and considered by the City Planning Commission.
Mayor Krein asked if a representative of the petitioner wished to
address the City Council°
Mr. Lynn Eo Thompsen, Authorized Agent, 625 South Euclid Street,
advised that R-3 zoning was originally requested, however prior to the City
Planning Commission hearing, they concluded that a 17 lot single story R-2
duplex subdivision would be a more reasonable development for the property,
which in his opinion would not constitute a higher density than an approximate
19 lot R-1 development. He noted that the proposed R-2 development would
act as a buffer between the church and the single-family residential area to
the east and commercial properties on State College Boulevard.
The City Clerk submitted into evidence communication dated December
13, 1966, from William Jo Vetter, owner of property adjacent on the west,
expressing opposition to the proposed reclassification°
9856
Qit¥ Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 20~ 1966, 1:30 P.M.
The Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the City Council in
opposition°
Mr. Larry Armour, 2763 West Lincoln Avenue, one of the developers
of the new single-family subdivision east of subject property, stated that he
did not appear at the City Planning Commission's meeting because they had
received no notice of the public hearing° In his opinion, the density of
subject property would be greater if developed under multiple family residential
zoning than if developed with single family dwellings. He noted that the area
had been successfully retained for residential purposes, and he requested that
subject reclassification be denied.
The Mayor asked if anyone else wished to address the City Council
before or against subject reclassification, there being no response, declared
the hearing closed~
Attention was called to the interdepartmental report dated November
7, 1966, reflecting the Traffic Engineer's indications that any increase in
the residential density of the area would result in increased traffic, and
it was possible that South Street would become a four lane street in the
future, if there was sufficient traffic in the area.

City Planning Commission pursuant to Resolution Noo PC66-144 re-
commended approval of said reclassification.
Assistant Planner Charles Roberts reviewed the background of the
proposed reclassification, noting that the area in question was excluded
from Reclassification No. 66-67-14 for further study, and the approval of
subject application would change the zoning, and provide for a 50 foot
building setback, with 10 foot landscaping requirement, to allow uniformity
of industrial building setback along arterial streets and highways throughout

PROPOSED ROTATION OF CITY BANK ACCOUNTS: In accordance with action taken by the
City Council at the meeting of November 29, 1966, report dated December 12,
1966 from the Finance Director and City Treasurer regarding proposed rota-
tion of city bank accounts was submitted to the City Council, and decision
of the Council continued from the meeting of December 13, 1966 for further
study:
In response to Council questioning, Finance Director Douglas Ogden
advised it was his recommendation that the proposed consolidation of accounts
into two active accounts, a general account and a payroll account, be main-
tained in two different banks° He further explained the recommended classifi-
cation at the various banks within the city, as set forth in said report,
advising of the possibility that those banks classified in lower groups
could qualify for a higher classification in the future~
Mr. Ogden further advised that, if the Council adopted the policy
as recommended, the actual transfer of the active accounts could be ac-
complished by approximately April 1, 1967.
Reference was made to Item No. 5, Page 2 of the report, relative
to the recommendation that names of banks eligible to receive active funds
be drawn out of a hat, to determine priority, which could result in loss
of competitive bidding.
At the conclusion of Council discussion, Councilman Schutte moved
that the City Council adopt this policy, the recommendations of the Finance
Director, amending Item Nos 5 thereof to read:
"The City Council should draw names out of a hat, if proposals are equal,
to initially determine the priority of depositing active funds for two year
periods with the banks who are eligible for the General and Payroll Accounts.
9863
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 20~ 1966~ 1:30 P.M.
Banks who later become eligible will be placed at the end of the list of
those eligible and will receive the active deposits immediately prior to
the bank who has the deposits when the new bank becomes eligible."
Councilman Pebley seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED°
It was agreed that the City Manager proceed with requests for
proposals from eligible banks for the placement of active city accounts.

at the meeting held December 13, 1966, scheduling reports from representative

PUBLIC HEARING - VARIANCE NOo 1837: Submitted by Gloria Ann Maddock requesting
permission to conduct a dance studio in a garage; R-1 zoned property located
at 3108 West Teranimar Drive.
The City Planning Commission pursuant to Resolution No. PC66-139
granted said variance, subject to the following conditions:
1o That the proposed dance instruction studio shall be limited to a maximum
of 35 students°
2. That any signs for the property shall conform to the requirement of the
R-l, One Family Residential, Zone.
3. That the request for the dance instruction studio on subject property
shall have a time limitation of three (3) years, at which time the
Commission will review the petition to determine if any violations of
the use have been filed and if the use has become a detriment to the
residential character of the area° Upon request then by the petitioner,
an additional time extension may be granted, if approved by the Planning
Commission.

City Hall~ Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 20, 1966, 1 30 PoM.
That subject property shall be developed substantially in accordance
with plans and specifications on file with the City of Anaheim, marked
Exhibit Nos. 1 and 2o
Review of action taken by the City Planning Commission was ordered
by the City Council and the City Clerk directed to set date for public
hearing.
Zoning Supervisor Ronald Thompson noted the location of subject
property and the existing uses and zoning in the immediate area. He sum-
marized the evidence submitted to and considered by the City Planning
Commission, and called attention to the findings of the Commission precedent
to their approval of the variance°
In answer to Council questioning, the City Attorney was of the
opinion that the requested use would not be allowable under a home occupation
permit°
Mayor Krein asked if the petitioner wished to address the City
Council.
Mrs° Gloria Maddock, 3108 West~Teranimar Drive, briefly quoted
from the minutes of the City Planning Commission meeting of November 7, 1966
relative to subject variance, and advised that many people in the area
indicated to her that their opposition was based on the apprehension that the
approval of the requested use would be the first step in a change from a
residential to commercial area.
With reference to the finding of the Commission that the business
had been in operation for a three year period, Mayor Krein asked how the
variance application came about.
Mrs. Maddock advised that a minor improvement to her garage
apparently resulted in an inquiry to the city, and she was subsequently
informed that a variance would be necessary to continue teaching classes
in the single family residential area. She noted that the conditions of
the variance would limit the size of the classes and would restrict any
potential signs, advertising, etCo which might affect the residential
character of the property, t~.rther, that the available space would pre-
clude any enlargement of the use.
Mayor Krein asked for a show of hands to determine how many were
present in the Council Chamber opposing subject variance; there being
approximately five persons so indicating, asked if they had a spokesman.
Mr. Robert E~ Nelson, 3119 Teranimar Drive, advised that they felt
a dance studio was not an asset to a residential neighborhood, however their
opposition was to the granting of the variance rather than to the use. He
submitted and read copy of petition of opposition, filed at the Planning
Commission hearing and signed by approximately 32 residents of the area,
and noted a layout of the cul-de-sac street indicating 28 parcels, advising
that 18 properties marked with red dots represented those who signed the
petition opposing the variance°
In response to Council questioning, Mr° Nelson further advised
that until recently, there had been a problem with people parking automobiles
in front of other residence driveways while waiting to pick up members of
the dancing class:
Mr. Alfred Passanisi, 3114 Teranimar Drive, adjacent on the south
to subject property, called attention to photographs contained in the file
illustrating automobiles parked so as to block his driveway. He asked that
the residential integrity of the neighborhood be retained:
Mr. Passanisi noted that the music from the classes did not disturb
him, however he was concerned that the granting of the variance would de-
valuate other homes in the neighborhood. He inquired whether the variance
would be transferable to a future owner of the property.

City Hall~ Anaheim~ California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 20~ 1966~ 1:30 P.Mo
The City Attorney advised that a variance was granted for a
specific use of property, and would be in effect during whatever period of
time was approved, regardless of ownership°
Mro Jack Marshall, Realtor, 1741 South Euclid Street, addressed
the Council advising that he was the father of one of Mrs~ Maddock's
students, and maintained his business in the area, and in his professional
opinion the dance studio would not be detrimental to the potential sale of
nearby properties° Further, that the application would not change the zone
of the property° He noted that the petitioner was able to support herself
and her two children because she taught dancing at home; that the garage
has been improved but can be used as a garage.
In rebuttal Mrs~ Maddock advised that the automobiles which had
been blocking a driveway were attended by parents waiting for their children,
and could have been moved at any time. That approximately one half of the
children walked to classes, which were conducted from approximately 3:30
PoMo to 6:30 or 7:00 P.Mo during the week, no weekend classes, and there
were approximately nine to ten students in each class.
Mrs° Maddock thereupon submitted a copy of the petition submitted
with her application, containing approximately 49 signatures in favor of
the use, advising that many of the same people signed both said petition
and petition of opposition to the variance° She noted that the parents
had been advised of the neighbors'complaints, and they had been more
careful about blocking driveways and honking automobile horns. Further,
that a letter was on file signed by her neighbors on the north, expressing
support of the dancing studio~
Mr~ Bob Soucy, 3122 Teranimar Drive, advised that he was one of
the people who signed both petitions; however there was no mention of the
variance on the petition of approval and at that time it was his under-
standing that both adjacent neighbors did not object.
Mayor Krein announced that sufficient evidence had been presented,
and thereupon declared the hearing closed~
RESOLUTION NOo 66R-799: At the conclusion of Council discussion, Councilman
Krein offered Resolution No~ 66R-799 for adoption.

The City Clerk reported that verbal request had been received
from a representative of the petitioners to continue subject public hearing
to the next meeting.
Mayor Krein asked if anyone was present in the Council Chamber
for or against subject variance. There was no response.

PUBLIC HEARING - RECLASSIFICATION NO. 66-67-38: Submitted by Sherwood Professional
Partnership requesting change of zone from R-1 to C-1 to allow conversion of
property to a parking lot; property located at the southeast corner of Niobe
Avenue and Brookhurst Street~ (700 South Brookhurst Street and 2176 Niobe
Avenue)
The City Planning Commission pursuant to Resolution Noo PC66-143
recommended approval of said reclassification, subject to the following
conditions:
1o That the owners of subject property shall deed to the City of Anaheim
a strip of land 60 feet in width, from the center line of the street
including a 15-foot radius corner return, along Brookhurst Street,
for street widening purposes~
That the vehicular access rights to Niobe Avenue, shall be dedicated
to the City of Anaheim°
3° That Condition Noso 1 and 2, above mentioned, shall be complied with
within a period of 180 days from the date hereof, or such further time
as the City Council may grant.
4. That subject property shall be developed substantially in accordance
with plans and specifications on file with the City of Anaheim, marked
Exhibit Noo 1; provided, however, that the proposed 6-foot masonry
wall, for the north and east property lines shall be a decorative stone
wall, which is comparable to the existing entrance of the residential
tract to the north and east.
Mr~ Thompson noted the location of subject property and the
existing uses and zoning in the immediate area~ He summarized the evidence
submitted to and considered by the City Planning Commission, and noted re-
commendations of the Development Services Department report dated November
7, 1966.
Mayor Krein asked if the proponent wished to address the City
Council°
Mro James A0 Allen, 800 South Brookhurst Street, Agent representing
the petitioners, advised that the installation of the 28 space parking lot
to serve the existing medical center would alleviate the problem of auto-
mobiles parking on Brookhurst Street and Niobe Avenue. He noted that their
plans allow for additional widening of Brookhurst Street; however he advised
that the lenders'agent would have to give their approval for additional
dedication fronting the medical center itself°
In response to Council questioning, Mr~ Allen advised that access
to the parking lot would be limited to Brookhurst Street onlyo
Councilman Pebley expressed concern that, once C-1 was accomplished,
the development of the parking lot could not be assured°
Mr. Allen advised that the C-1 zone was applied for in accordance
with the recommendation of the Development Services Department Staff, and
due to the narrow dimensions of the property, it would not be feasible to
develop subject property for another uses
Discussion was held regarding the possibility of commercial de-
velopment, and Councilman Pebley was of the opinion that if the application
had been for P-1 zoning, perhaps the people who signed the petition of
opposition would not have objected~
Mr~ Thompson called attention to site development standards of
the C-1 zone, under which required building setbacks would leave very little
property for actual construction~ Further, the P-1 zone would also permit
an R-3 use, therefor the C-1 application was recommended°
Mayor Krein asked if anyone wished to address the Council in
opposition.
Mr. Jack W. McCanic, 2177 Niobe Avenue, directly across the
street from subject property, expressed concern that the proposed use
9867
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 20, 1966, 1:30 PoMo
would initiate a trend towards commercial use of residential properties in
the area° In his opinion, if subject property were zoned C-i, an additional
wing of the medical center could be constructed which would add to the
congestion of traffic in the area° He requested that the residential
integrity of the neighborhood be upheld, and that the reclassification
be denied.
Mr° Jack Raines, 2148 Niobe Avenue, advised of his ten year
residence at that address, and objected to the proposed commercial zoning.
He expressed concern that the existing dwellings on subject property could
be converted for commercial use if the zone were changed.
Mr. Peter Olden, 2172 Niobe Avenue, adjacent to subject property,
expressed the opinion that the proposed 28 space parking lot would not
accommodate the current needs of the medical center. He suggested that
the property be retained for residential use.
In rebuttal, Mr. James Allen noted that the C-1 zoning of the
center had been established some time ago, while the owners of the medical
facility had purchased the property only a few months ago; that there was
apparently no other available property in the area for the parking facilities,
with the exception of large acreages whose owners did not wish to sell
only a portion of their properties°
Mr. Allen called attention to the fact that Brookhurst Street
is a major arterial street, and he advised that the plans include walls
and landscaping to prevent visual intrusion into the residential area.
Mayor Krein announced that a good cross section of the evidence
had been presented, and thereupon declared the hearing closed°

Schutte offered Resolution No~ 66R-800 for adoption, disapproving Reclassifi-
cation No. 66-67-38.

The Mayor declared Resolution NOo 66R-800 duly passed and adopted.
GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENT NO° 90: Public hearing was held November 29, 1966,
to consider City Planning Commission Resolution Noo PC66-135, recommending
the adoption of General Plan Amendment No~ 90 establishing new symbology
for properties on both sides of East Street between Sycamore and North
Streets on the west, and Wilhelmina and La Palma Avenue on the east, and
the south side of La Palma Avenue between East and Hawthorne Streets.
Said hearing was closed, and the Planning Staff was instructed to prepare
an alternate general plan amendment and report depicting proposed land use
of the area along both sides of the street between Sycamore and La Palma
Avenues, and the City Planning Commission was requested to offer comments
and the report on the suggested alternate general plan amendment, ~decision
of the City Council on General Plan Amendment 90 being deferred to this
date.
Planning Supervisor Ronald Grudzinski noted on the General Plan
Map the location of the area under consideration and reviewed the four
Alternate General Plan Exhibits posted on the west wall of the Council
Chamber, as follows:
Exhibit "A" - depicting a commercial professional symbol on the
west side of East Street and low medium density residential on the east
9868
City Hall, Anaheim, California - COUNCIL MINUTES - December 20, 1966~ 1:30 PoMo
side of the street and on the south side of La Palma Avenue.
Exhibit "B" - designating commercial-professional symbology on
both sides of the street, extending the area of the east side of the street
southerly to Sycamore Street, and further designating low medium density
residential on the south side of La Palma Avenue east of East Street.
Exhibit "C" - extending the commercial-professional designation
of Exhibit "B" to a point southerly of Sycamore Street on the east side of
East Street.
Exhibit "D" - reflecting a low medium density residential symbol
for both sides of East Street including the areas on the east side of the
street south of Sycamore Street, and on the south side of La Palma Avenue.
Mr. Grudzinski briefed the excerpt from the minutes of the City
Planning Commission meeting held December 5th, 1966, summarizing the
discussion held by the Commission, and reported that the Commission considered
subject general plan amendment in conjunction with their study of the impli-
cations of conversion of residential properties fronting on arterial highways
in the city, and they suggested that determination by the Council be continued
for approximately 90 days to allow finalization of recommendations resulting
from said study, which would have considerable bearing on the area under
consideration.
He noted the recommendation of the Commission that, if the Council
determines that action be taken at this time, their original action re-
commending approval of General Plan Amendment No: 90, Exhibit "A" be approved
on the basis as set forth in the minute excerpt.
At the conclusion of brief discussion by the City Council, it was
moved by Councilman Schutte, seconded by Councilman Pebley that Council
determination on General Plan Amendment No. 90 be continued to March 21,
1967, 7:00 P.Mo for further study° MOTION CARRIED°
