He is a member of the Anaheim Neighborhood Association (ANA) Board. Three members are speaking to encourage the Agency to select a Master Developer for Parcels 14, 22 and 4(d) who will operate from the premise that single-family detached homes and low density multiple family units would be of benefit to the City. They have talked to Police, Fire, Health and Educational Services and all indicate that as more high density projects are built, the less their ability to respond becomes. The family should receive consideration as the Agency makes its decision. They are asking the same kind of consideration that would ne provided the environment under the EIR process and give them an opportunity to build neighborhoods and enjoy those neighborhoods in a way that enhances family values rather than endangers them. 88-47 146 Anaheim Civic Center, ANAHEIM REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY July 12, 198 , ti:20 P.M. Keith Olesen, ANA. The bottom line of the concern that most people have for Parcels 14, 22 and 4(d) is land use. They are not promoting a specific developer, architecture or project, but land use concepts. Those parcels will be the residential nucleus of Project Alpha. He then read portions of the Redevelopment Plan guidelines, specifically the basic objectives of the Plan. To meet the objectives as stated and restated, it is later stated in the guidelines, they are looking at one thing, land use - intelligent land use on tYie three parcels. What is being addressed are the needs and the contributions of a mixed housing type for that property and those projects. They are not suggesting that there be only single-family dousing on every inch of those parcels. Sally Horton, ANA. The low density may be best over all and is best for City services. It has been determined by the Redevelopment Agency's Planning Consultant that the new mixed use of housing types will be the best choice for this downtown residential development. What the downtown has to offer is an established quality of life that will be attractive to young couples as they grow into families and those families looking for roots in Orange County. ANA would also like to stress how the mixed use concept fits in and enhances what Anaheim already has to offer. Mixed use of owner occupied single-family detached homes, townhouses and lower density rentals offers these people several options to settle in and become active and permanent participants in the daily life and economy of Anaheim. The large high density apartment "`' complex has become a stop over for those individuals and families who will eventually take their resources and move to where ownership is more available. She urged that the Agency support the recommendations of the Project Area Committee, the Redevelopment Commission, Redevelopment staff and the Redevelopment Agency's own planning consultants. Police and Fire Associations of Anaheim support the mixed use proposal as well as small businessmen in and around the redevelopment areas. The citizenry of Anaheim supports a single-family mixed use proposal. She thereupon submitted signatures representing households of 1,400 registered voters of the area (made a part of the record). She also asked that those present in the Chamber audience this evening who support the mixed use proposal to please stand. There were approximately 100 people who indicated their support for the mixed use concept. ADJOURNMENT: Agency Member Bay moved to adjourn. Agency Member Hunter seconde the motion. Agency Member Pickler was absent. MOTION CARRIED. (6:57 p.m.) ~a~ LEONORA N. SOHL, SECRETARY 88-48
