Bonkosky, requesting C -1 and C -3 Zoning on property described as the southeast corner of Euclid and Lincoln Avenues. The City Planning Commission, pursuant to their Resolution No, 110, recommended said reclassification, The Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the Council on the matter. Mr. Ro W, Mungall, Secretary of the City Planning Commission, addressed the Council and stated that the future planning by the City Planning Commission of this area provides for a street going through from Loara Street to Euclid Avenue for street and drainage purposes, and that it would be necessary to secure 30 feet from the south portion of this property for the proposed street. Mr. Edo Bonko3ky addressed the Council and asked if all the people to the east are to give the dame amount of And for street purposes, He further stated that according to the conditions of the City Planning Commission, the necessary dedication of 20 feet for street widening purposes along Euclid Avenue must be made, and asked if they were also to dedicate 30 feet from the south portion of their property. Cit Hall., Anaheim, California, Januar 8 1957 7:00 P.M. Mr. Bonkosky was advised that this was necessary and in the master plan for this area. In answer to a question by Mr0Heacock, Mr. Bonkosky advised that the request for C -3 zoning at the corner, 140 feet by 140 feet, was to allow the erection and operation of a service station at this location. Mr. Ray Rhodes, representing his mother who is the owner of the adjacent property to the east, addressed the Council and advised that in their opinion the request for rezoning was logical and good and did not interfer with any of the plans under consideration for their property. Further, that the pro— posed street at the south of the property also goes along with their planning. Discussion of the overall master plan of this area, which is presently being studied by the City Planning Commission, was held. It was considered that Mr. Bonkosky should not change his request from C—1 to C -2 at this time, but allow the rezoning pursuant to the original application.

(F -56 -57-27 C -1 C-3) On roll call the foregoing Resolution was duly passed and adopted by the following vote: The Mayor declared the foregoing Resolution duly passed and adopted, PUBLIC HEARIN m VARIANCE NO. 671: Submitted by Dr. Edward H. Abrams, requesting permission to use the residence located at the southeast corner of Broadview Street and West Lincoln Avenue for a residence and medical office. The City Planning Commission, pursuant to their Resolution No. 114, granted said Variance, subject to the providing of three off— street parking spaces, and suitable landscaping. A petition was filed protesting the granting of said Variance and public hearing ordered held this date. The Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the Council on the matter. Mr. Joe Laird, Attorney, appeared on behalf of the home owners in the immediate area and referred to the basic rule of zoning, being, °for the welfare of the City He advised that there was nothing unique about this property that would make it adaptable to such utilization or to 24 hour service, and that the request serves only the needs of the applicant by deriving the benefit of the property at a decreased price. It was his opinion that there was no necessity for this type of Variance and that the applicant should secure property presently zoned for thi- busine, -s and that the City's welfare isn't involved. Further, the location, being on Lincoln Avenue, was not a sufficient reason for changing the zone. 1838 City Hall„ Anaheim California. Januar 8 1957 7a00 P.M. Dr. Abram; the Council and advised that he and his wife have lived there since December 1, 1956 and wanted to use his residence for one medical office only in addition to his home. There would be no additional construction other than to provide for an off street parking area, which would be located on the Broadview Street side of the property. The parking would have a solid wall so that it would not be in view of the adjacent property. Mr. Jo McEntee 218 Broadview, addressed the Council and stated he had been requested by his neighbors in the tract to speak on their behalf, and it was evident by the many people present that this was not a popular request. To them, it was a matter of precedent, this changing a home into a business, which gave them a sense of insecurity with reference to the protection of land values. They understood that the residence could be used as a 24 hour medical center by the very fact that the Doctor lived there. Further, that the homes are not built for radium or X Ray appliances and in addition they objected to the increased traffic on their street. He further stated that the people in the tract objected to any changes which would allow commercial enterprises. Mrs. Chavos, 1903 Embassy Street (12 blocks from the residence in question) advised that they were reassured by the builder that everything south of Lincoln Avenue was residential and that no home could be used for anything other than for residential purposes. Further, that the Centex changed the deed restrictions July 19, 1956 on two lots without informing any of the residents in the Lincoln Park Tract. She advised that they purchased their property before tte date the deed restrictions were changed but had not moved into their home until August. Attorney Joe Laird stated that this was a matter to be further in— vestigated and considered as there had been some misinterpretation of the rights to change the deed restrictions. A gentlemen in the audience (resident at 106 Echo Place) stated that he could see no reason for changing a home into a medical building. That there was at present a medical center which accommodates 11 doctors and another similar building now under construction to accommodate an additional 11 doctors with a third medical center being constructed further east of that, which would make plenty of office spaces available. That there would be 200 feet between the doctor's home and his neighbors on Lincoln Avenue that would go commercial. Dr. Abrams stated that Lincoln Avenue being a heavily traveled road was good for his business and as for the office spaces available, there was only one unrented unit and others were not yet constructed, and that the units carry a high rent and require a five year lease. Therefore, that was a reason for wanting to use his own home. He stated that he and his wife invited some of the objectors to their home and explained that there would be no X Ray machine in— stalled, and if and when, an XRay machine was installed, all necessary pre— cautions would be taken. Further, that there would be no 24 hour service, a fact to which he was willing to swear to, and that they would do everything possible to make the property attractive. He presented a copy of a notice which he stated had been posted on the telephone poles throughout the tract, showing the home used for many other purposes. He also presented communications approving the variance from Edward Mm Musgrove and Raymond P. Reynolds. Mrs. Ewing stated she approved of the variance and that their property was next to the doctors, across the street, and the parking area would be directly across from their lawn. Mr. Chavos spoke of what a well established medical office should be equipped with in order to serve the public and that the Doctor's building was not constructed for equipment such as a fluoroscope. Mr. William Patton, 103 Echo Place, felt no prejudice against the Doctor but that doctor facilities were available and adequate at the medical center as a recent emergency experienc}d by them had proven. Mr. Turner read Section 9200015 C of the Anaheim Municipal Code re— garding variances and the necessary required showings therefor. At the conclusion of reading the required showings necessary before a Variance may be granted, Mayor Pearson declared the hearing closed. City Hall, Anaheim, California, January 8, 1957 7:00 P.M, Attorney Joe Laird advised that in his opinion, only condition number 4 as read by Mr. Turner, has the Doctor a probable right to request a variance. Councilman Coons asked Dr. Abrams if a limitation on office hours would be a detriment to him. Dr. Abrams stated he would be agreeable to that and that the X —Ray available next door and also the lab would take care of all but the very routine tests made in his office. Councilman Coons asked what the limitation of radiation of a X —Ray machine was. Dr. Abrams stated they presently have a high voltage machine next door and that if the neighborhood was not getting interference now they certainly would not get any interference from any equipment he would have. That the radiation limitation depends upon the voltage of the machine. Councilman Fry moved that the decision on the matter be held over to the next meeting of the City Council (January 15, 1957) to allow further in— vestigation. Councilman Coons seconded the motion. MOTION CARRIED. PUBLIC HEARING VARIANCE NO. 678: Submitted by Ward— Harrington, requesting per— mission to erect a single —faced sign approximately 350 feet south of Katella Avenue on the west side of Harbor Boulevard, advertising sale of houses and lots within Tract No. 2520. The City Planning Commission, pursuant to their Resolution No. 122, denied Variance No. 678, as the sign would be located in the so— called Disney— land Area, which would be in violation of an established policy. Appeal from action taken by the City Planning Commission was filed by Mr. L. Earle Phillips on behalf of Ward— Harrington and public hearing ordered held this date. 1839 The Mayor asked if anyone wished to address the Council on the matter. A gentlemen representing Mr. Phillips was present and addressed the Council and advised that Mr. Phillips had been iliformed by the Manager of the Disneyland Park that he had no objections to the sign and that the sign was necessary for informing Harbor Boulevard south bound traffic far enough in advance so that necessary left hand turn can be accomplished by those interested. There being no further discussion on the matter, the Mayor declared the hearing closed. RESOLUTION NO. 3643: Councilman Coons stated that Disneyland itself had been denied a similar request and thereupon offered Resolution 3643 and moved for its passage and adoption, denying said Variance in accordance with the established policy.
