Mr, Ruc~olph Landa, LeRuy Rose 6 Associates, Architects, 1440 South State College
Boulevard, Anah~:im, CA 92806, and representing the Orange Unified School District
was available to answer questions of the Cortmis~ton.
THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS CLOSED.
In discussion, the Commission noted that the requssted var(ance was contrary to the
Scenic Corridor Ordinance, that in the past many homeowners and developers I~ad not
been granted permission to install roof mounted equipment~ and to grant petitioner's
requ~st would be sett~ng a precedent~
Mr, Landa advise~ that ground mounted equipment does not pravide the flexibla use of
space and service as the roof mounted equipment, that such units would be placed on
the roof in a~i urderly manner and not offensive to the public, and that duP to
budgetary problems for the School District, the roof mount~:d units would be preferable.
The Commission requested information as to the roof coloring, nocing that developers
had been revuested to ~~se earthen tones rather than white as propose~l by the
petitioner, and that a 3Q,G00 sq.ft. building wouid reflect a great deal of liyht
to surrounding properties.
Mr. Landa stated that no doubt the roof could be a more subtle color, however the
white col~r wauld reflect the heat,
The Com~nission inyuired of Mr. Landa and Paul Singer, City Traffic Engineer, relative
to curb cuts and ingress and egress fram the school property since the City would be
constructing a public library on property in close proximity to the school. The
Commission was advi,ed that this matter was subJect to City Council review~ and it
would be desirable to have access connecting the llbrary and the school. Mr. Landa
stated there had been disc~~ssion with the Library Department on this matter, however
it has not been resulve~' tc~ dat~e.
It was noted that th~ Director of the Planning Department had deterrtiinecl t!iat the
proposed activity falls within the definition of Section 3.01~ Class II, of the City
of Anaheim Guidelines to the ftequirements for an Environmental impact Report and was,
therefore, categorically exempt from the requirement to file an EIR.
