Planning Commission Res. No. 518 recommending the reclassification of specified property into C-C & D (Community Commercial and architectural overlay) and recommending the reg~lations to be imposed thereon under Zone 'D'. This hearing was continued from July 21, 1964 for the sole purpose of receiving documentary evidence.

Councilman Forman then MOVED that the record also be augmented by , ' I the inclusion of the excerpts from a letter receiv~d by Mr. Goebel from the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Comp'any which had been submitted by Mr. Goebel. Motion seconded by Councilman Reibold and carried unanimously. Brief discussion he~d with Richard English, Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce Industrial Committee, regarding the limitation of building area and the measurement of vibration. Councilman Forman MOVED that inasmuch as deliberations on this matter will be postponed the hearing be CLOSED. Motion seconded by Council- man Reibold and carried unanimously. Planning Commission Res. No. 519 recommending that properties at 1225 and 1229 Lovell Avenue be placed in Zone P(automobile parking). The Planning Director explained plans for the proposed development at said address and projecturals were displayed. He explained that the additional parking was to be used to provide additional parking facilities for the height-limit building to'be constructed on the adjoining property (604 to 620 W. Duarte Road) which has been re- classified into Zones C-O, H & D; that the or'iginal plan had called for all surface parking but the Pl~nning Commission had encouraged the applicant to include about 33 underground parking spaces and 167 surface parking spaces. 1. 8-4-64 HEARING (continued) 16:6323 Councilman Considine stated in part that it was his recollection that there were five lots approved for the eight-story building and that it was to be occupied by fifteen doctors; that he was under the impression that the developer contemplated surface parking and not underground. He asked how the request for addi- tional surface parking came about. Mr. Phelps explained that the number of parking spaces had been determined by the Planning Commission and the City Council; that the underground parking area had been encouraged by the Planning Commission. Mayor Turner then declared the hearing open. I Henry Hege, 651 W. Duarte Road, attorney for the applicant, stated in part that it had never been intended that the number of doctors to occupy the building be limited to fifteen and that the original plan had called for all surface parking; that the Planning Commission had urged consideration for underground parking and when the financial institution refused to loan on the plans which called for subterranean parking the applicant felt that by the elimination of the underground facilities he should provide this additional surface parking area. \ Michael Blake, 1245 Lovell Avenue, spoke to a former consideration given to the closing of Lovell Avenue at Duarte Road; that the residents are against it. He was advised that the closing of the street is not before the City Council at this time; that if it is ever proposed it must be accomplished through street closing pro- cedures which require posting and giving notice to all in the area. Councilman Considine stated further in part that such closing could possibly come about and the residents in greater West Arcadia do not desire further comme~cwal zoning as they feel that if the one lot on Naomi Avenue between Baldwin and Lovell Avenues had not been zoned commercially the R-l zoning might have been retained on Naomi Avenue. Discussion held on the use of the additional lot over the original request and it was brought out that under the zoning there is a transitional use allowed of the adjacent lot. Councilman Reibold MOVED that the hearing be CLOSED. Motion seconded by Councilman Forman and carried unanimously. Councilman Balser was informed that the plan still calls for the 10' screening on Lovell Avenue. Councilman Reibold stated in part that in his opinion underground parking would bring about more density of population than would surface parking which is more in keeping with the over-all desires of those opposed to commercial zoning; that he would support the recommendation. I Councilman Forman was of the opinion that the additional parking would be an asset to the total area and favored the surface parking over subterranean because of the open space and circulation. Mayor Turner stated in part that he would agree that surface parking affords less congestion than underground. Councilman Considine commented further that he did not object to the building which has already been zoned and approved and that he under- stands the economics of the surface parking, but that he can foresee a problem for those who would like to keep the area residential. Councilman Forman MOVED that the recommendation of the Planning Com- mission as contained in its Res. No. 518 be APPROVED. Motion seconded by Councilman Reibold and carried on roll call vote as follows:. 2. 8-4-64 1 1 ROLL CALL TRACT NO. 29178 - Revised Ten~ative Map' dlOl8 16:6324 AYES: Councilmen Balser, Forman, Reibold, Turner NOES: Councilman Considine ABSENT :None .'

Stewart Chairman of the Rodeo Committee of the Arcadia Mounted Police Association requesting official approval in order for the Association to sponsor the RCA Rodeo proposed to be held in the Pasadena Rose Bowl on January 24, 1965. The Association would hope to turn over a sizeable percentage of the proceeds from ticket sales to the Arcadia Chamber of Commerce to under- write the entry and construction of a float in the annual Pasadena Rose Parade with the remainder to be placed in trust for the Mounted Police Building Fund. Council approval is required because of the name of the organization and semi-official ties with the Police Department. 1 Discussion ensued with Mr. Stewart participating. Concern was expressed in the method and/or wording of the approach to the resident by telephone solicitation for ticket sales. Mr. Stewart stated in part that the Association would not ask for contribu- tions, only bona fide ticket sales and that if the project is a success it would be sponsored each year which would assure the City's representation in the Parade.

It was the consensus of the City Council that the event be approved in princi~le insofar as sponsorship is concerned and if the plan is repeated next year it should be reviewed by the City Council.

MOTION was then made by Councilman Balser, seconded by Council- man Forman and carried unanimously that the project be APPROVED in principle and that the City sponsor the Arcadia Mounted Police Association in its holding of the rodeo and that the City Council review the results of the first year's operation prior to approval of the project next year.
