John Scharn, ' Pastor, Arcadia Church of the Nazarene Mayor Dale E. Turner PRESENT : ABSENT: Councilmen Balser. Considine, Forman, Reibold, Turner None MOTION by Councilman Reibold, seconded by Councilman Considine and carried unanimously that the'Minutes of the regular meeting of October 6, 1964 be approved as submitted in ,writing. Planning Commission Resolution No. 533 recommending the classifi- cation and the reclassification to Zones C-1 and C-2 and also to Zone D (architectural overlay) of the property located at the south- west corner of Second Avenue and Duarte Road - 134-138. 140, 160 & 186,E. Duarte Road and 915-921 S. Second Avenue. The Planning Director explained that the property is presently C-l, R-l and R-2 and is bounded on 3 sides by commercial properties; that to the south it is R-1 and that the corner is vacant land; that the Planning Commission had held two public hearings and a meeting with the adjacent property owners, the developers and the staff in an endeavor to work out some of the differences between all concerned. Comprehensive projectura1s were viewed showing proposed development including present site characteristics, the proposed service station, the market and sate11ite shops. Building coverage, parking ratio and the height of the building were explored, with emphasis placed on the south elevation which is the critical area as far as the adjacent property owners are concerned. Mayor Turner then declared the hearing open and the following persons addressed the City Council: L. C. Smul1 , Vice President of Lands and Buildings, Inc., 811 W. Seventh Street, Los Angeles, stated in part that as developers of the property they had worked closely with the City departments, the Commission and the property owners in order to establish a good, uniform desirable development which economically would be sound and justified, that architectural1y every effort had been made to soften the effect of the structures through adequate and attractive landscaping; that the 14 ft. building height agreed upon is the lowest profile the market has ever constructed; that all plans for the shopping center have been made in order to negate any adverse effects to the property owners on the south with whom they had 1. 10- 20-64 16:6386 reached a basic agreement, Re stated further that they had not had an opportunity to discuss with the Commission any of the regulations with which they did not wholly agree; that in his opinion they are more a matter of specifics than change. Discussion then held on the noise factor emanating from loading operations. It was stated by Mr. Smull that the market has absolute schedules for the food merchandise but that the produce is the main problem; that it is impossible for the market to guarantee that a store will be serviced at certain hours in this particular department. Discussion held on the size of the sign. It was stated by Mr. Smull that Alpha Beta Market uses standard signs which are mass produced and in most cities the requirement permits tower signs to he 52 ft. but such is not true in Arcadia; that for the protection of the adjacent property owners to the south the sign has been designed and situated in the plans in such a manner that it cannot be seen by them. I Robert Runtley, 777 S. Rarbor Blvd., La Rabre, stated in part that governmental jurisdictions require that loading and unloading activities not exceed the ambient noise level; that produce is usually delivered once daily between 5 A,M. and 7 A.M. in the San Gabriel Val1ey area; that foods are delivered during the regular working hours of the day. Re stated further that the familiar Alpha Beta sign has been used for 7 years. Jack Stokey, 265 W, Lemon Avenue, Arcadia, owner of the southwest corner of Duarte Road and Second Avenue, asked that the requested zoning be approved; that he had dedicated property with the prospect of being able to negotiate a lease for a service station. For the enlightenment of Mrs. George Kileen, 143 Greenfield Place, the loading zones and the location of the sign were delineated on a map. Conditions and modifications were explored by the City Manager as contained in his report. Bill Murfell, 135 Greenfield Place, was informed that the conditions require all trash, etc., to be maintained in a 6' concrete block wall enclosure. Re stated that the wall at his rear property line is 6' and he would not like to be able to see the rubbish from his property. Re also expressed concern about the location of the loading dock, that he has only a 25' rear ykrd, which would abut the market property. David Cohn, 925 N. Garfield Avenue, Alhambra, owner of property at 925 and 1001 S, Second Avenue, spoke in protest to the proceedings; that he was most concerned about the provision for rubbish mainte- nance and the noise which would be noticeable from his property. Re also felt that a 6' wall would be inadequate. I Jerry Melanie, 141 Greenfield Place, spoke in protest - that the advent of the market would result in two markets within one block which, in his opinion, could devaluate property. Mrs. Jean Potter, 921 S. Second Avenue, stated in part that the disapproval of the zone change would allow the older homes to remain and the owners would undoubtedly have to resort to the renting of same. Robert Dagner, l029 Greenfield, asked property owners residing at a farther be seen. for consideration of the distance where the sign could 2. lO-20-64 I ORDINANCE NO. 1265 Introduced :!J- /0 If 'D' REGULATIONS I 16: 6387 No one else desiring to be heard, Councilman Balser MOVED that the hearing be CLOSED. Councilman Reibold seconded the motion which was unanimously carried. Extensive discussion ensued. The report of the City Manager setting forth the conflicting requirements of the Planning Commission and the amendments proposed by Lands and Buildings, Inc., was explored at length. The report was the result of a meeting with the developers and the City Manager and represented compromises worked out therein, Particular emphasis was placed on the sign and its location, the possibility and value of increasing the rear wall to a height of 8' instead of the 6'. Rowever, it was felt that the higher wall would interfere with circulation and ventilation for the property owners whose property had only 25' at the rear. Some of the wording in the resolution ~as explored. It was the consensus of the City Council that the zoning portion of the recommendation could be introduced in ordinance form at this meeting and the 'D' regulations to be incorporated in a resolution for a future meeting at which time the wording could be reviewed. Whereupon the City Attorney presented for the first time, explained the content and read the title of Ordinance No. 1265 entitled: "AN ORDINANCE OF TRE CITY COUNCIL OF TRE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING SECTION 9233.14 OF THE ARCADIA MUNICIPAL CODE BY RECLASSI- FYING TO ZONES C-1 AND C-2 AND ALSO TO ZONE D (ARCRITECTURAL OVERLAY) THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT TRE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF SECOND AVENUE AND DUARTE ROAD IN SAID CITY."

Whereupon he MOVED that the conditions recommended by the Planning Commission be approved as modified by the report from the City Manager, except that Item 19 pertaining to sign remain as recommended by the Planning Commission. Councilman Forman seconded the motion which was carried on roll call vote as follows: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Councilmen Balser, Considine, Forman, Reibold, Turner None None 3. lO- 20- 64 MAYOR TO VISIT GREECE (1965) -r~r-- REARING (Realth Code) ORDINANCE NO. 1264 Adopted TRACT NO. 30142 -!)- /015' 16:6388 Mayor Turner advised that he and Mrs. Turner have accepted an invitation from the Pan-American Federation of America to visit Arcadia's Sister City, Tripo1is, Greece, in July 1965 at the expense of the Federation; that the 34th National Annual Federation Convention will be held in Tripolis at that time, Re commented that the gesture evidences a deep feeling on the part of the people whose lineal history is Greek; that they view the affiliation much more than just a material exchange. Mayor Turner declared the hearing open on the County Realth Code by reference. No one desired to address the City Council and Councilman Reibold MOVED, seconded by Councilman Considine and carried unani- mously that the hearing be CLOSED. I Whereupon the City Attorney presented for the second time, explained the content and read the title of Ordinance No. 1264 entitled: "AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF TRE CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING CHAPTER 6 OF ARTICLE V OF TRE ARCADIA MUNICIPAL CODE BY REPEALING SECTIONS 5602.1, 5602,2, 5602,3, 5602.4 and 5602.5 TREREOF, AMENDING SECTION 5600 TREREOF ,AND BY ADDING ,A NEW SECTION 5602,1 TRERETO AMENDING CHAPTER VI OF TRE REALTR CODE."

Motion seconded by Councilman Balser and carried on roll call vote as follows: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Councilmen Balser, Considine, Forman, Reibold, Turner None None Planning Commission recommendation that the tentative map of Tract No, 30142 (located at 1931, 200l and 2009 Bella Vista Drive) be approved subject to specified conditions, The Planning Director advised that the Department has been recommending that all utilities be installed underground, but that in this instance it had failed to so do; that the Commission in most cases has agreed to this requirement and he suggested that the City Council consider imposing this added condition. Councilman Balser MOVED, seconded by Councilman Forman that the City Council approve the recommendation of the Planning Commission and that of the Planning Department (underground utilities). I Mr. McNulty, 245 Carolwood, Arcadia, the developer, addressed Council stating in part that he was unaware of the possible requirement for underground utilities until apprised by Mr. Phelps; that he had obtained estimates of the installation and they were very costly; that he had made a survey of adjacent subdivisions which revealed that they are all served by poles; that the existing poles would serve two of his homes and for the remaining four only two additional poles would be required. Re asked that the conditions remain as recommended. 4, 10-20-64 MOTION MORATORIUM AREA (Tid"water 1"",0) jS99 I Motion 16:6339 The consensus of the City Council being that underground utilities are the goal, the fact that there are existing facilities in the area anq there is need for only two additional poles, Councilman Balser withdrew his original motion and MOVED that the tentative map of Tract No. 30142 be APPROVED subject to the specified conditions as outlined by the Planning Commission. Councilman Forman also withdrew his second to the original motion and s~coryded the new motion which was unanimously carried. Request of the Tidewater Oil Company for relief from the moratorium to permit the reconstruction of its service station on the northwest corner of Santa Anita Avenue and Runtington Drive. The Planning Department recommended granting the request under certain conditions which included the requirement for planter areas. The applicants concurred in most of the conditions, asking for minor modifications in a communication addressed to the City Manager dated October 20, 1964. Extensive discussion ensued and the conditions were considered in detail. It was the consensus of the City Council that they could be worked out at staff 1evel except in the area of planters; that because of the size of the lot (less than 100' x 100') the placement of planters on Santa Anita Avenue and on Runtington Drive would impair ingress and egress to and from the station as well 'as consti- tuting a safety hazard, Raymond Kennett, 1669 Wilson Avenue, Arcadia, official with the Company, and Mr. Aspen, engineer with the Company, explained reasons for the minor modifications; also asked that the aforementioned planters be eliminated in the essence of safety. Edward Dantler, 30 Racienda Drive, Arcadia, stated in part that he felt it would be difficult to negotiate financing for an eight story office building for which he is endeavoring to purchase the land on the northeast corner of Santa Anita Avenue and Runtington Drive (former Sunfair Market site) as there would then be two corners improved with service stations; that the area under the Towne Centre PIan would be pI aced in a 'D' overlay zone; that it was his under- standing that u1timately service stations would be eliminated in Zone 'D'. Renry McNulty, realtor of 11 W. Runtington Drive, questioned what would happen to the subject property if the reconstruction were not permitted; that he is the owner of the property immediately west and for Some time has 100ked to improvement of the corner, It was brought out that the ground lease is for 25 years with 23 years remaining; that the Company purchased the facilities some three years ago and is eager to facilitate the rebuilding into an attractive structure. Discussion held on service stations being placed in any zone by special use permit providing the application and improvements have been approved by the Planning Commission and the City' Council; that they are being removed from all zones, not just one zone. Inasmuch as the corner will be much improved by the new station, whereas if the request were not granted an undesirable occupancy could remain for an indefinite period of time, it was MOVED by Councilman Balser, seconded by Councilman Forman and unanimously carried that relief from the moratorium be granted the Tidewater Oil Company (5 W. Runtington Drive) subject to conditions as outlined by the Planning Department with modifications as requested by the Company with the exception that the requirement for planters on Santa Anita Avenue and on Runtington Drive be eliminated. 5. 10- 20- 64 MORATORIUM AREA (Cone) 4, tF11 MORATORIUM AREA (George's BBQ) 48'19 BID AWARD (Water Dept.

The City Manager advised that he did not receive any bids on the City owned Duarte Road property; that he had received a communication from the Westman Development Company (Arthur Bauman) asking for a meeting relative to the disposition of the land.

Re asked for reinstatement of the original pIan calling for a 40' radius cul-de-sac and the front line distances as original1y shown on-the tentative map. (These were of varying widths). /"'---- This matter was before the City Council on July 21, 1964 at which time it considered the recommendation of the Commission for denial of the tentative map. Council sustained the decision of the Commission at this meeting. On August 18 at the request of the property owners involved in the subdivision the matter was referred to staff for further study. On September 1, 1964, on the basis of the staff report, Council approved the tentative tract map subject to the conditions previously imposed by the Commission. Two of these conditions being the provision for the 45' radius and the 45' frontage at the property line of the cul-de-sac, I Extensive discussion ensued with the Planning Director exploring the entire background of the tract. Projecturals were also shown. Re stated in part that the 45' frontage requirement is probably more important than the 45' radius as that would call for the relocation of the garage which is located too close to the proposed street, The City Council felt that adherence to its previous action was in order and it was MOVED by Councilman Forman, seconded by Councilman Reibold and carried unanimously that the City Council reaffirm its original action and that aIL conditions imposed at that time be retained. The City Council, on October 6, 1964, denied the request of LeRoy Smith who had applied for relief from the moratorium to permit an auto parts store at III S. First Avenue. It felt that the usage was not in keeping with the pIan for the downtown area and also that a 10 year lease as proposed was excessive. Written request of Dr. I. R, Goulard on behalf of LeRoy Smith, asked for reconsideration of the request on the basis of a 3 to 5 year lease instead of the original 10 year lease. Council adhered to its previous action on MOTION by Councilman Reibo1d, seconded by Councilman Balser and unanimously carried. Mayor Turner advised of the forthcoming dedication of the City Rall at Temple City. Councilman Balser to endeavor to represent the City. Mayor Turner advised of the forthcoming meeting of the San Gabriel Valley Mayors' Association. Taxation to be discussed and Supervisor Bonelli to be present.
