The Invocation was offered by Rev. Lyndell D. Cheeves, Pastor of the Arcadia Church of Christ. Mayor Pro Tempore Balser led in the pledge of allegiance to the flag. PRESENT : ABSENT: Councilmen Butterworth, Reibold, Phillips, Balser Mayor Camphouse Motion by Councilman Reibold, seconded by Councilman Phillips and carried unanimously that the Council Minutes of the Adjourned Regular Meeting of August 24, 1960 as submitted in writing be approved. Mayor Pro Tempore Balser announced: "The hour of 8:00 o'clock P.M. having arrived, this is the time and place for hearing protests or objections against the assessment for improvement of Woodruff Way." The City Clerk advised that she had the affidavits of pu~lication, 'posting and mailing relative to the hearing. Whereupon Councilman Reibold'moved that said affidavits be received and filed. Motion seconded by Councilman Phillips and carried unanimously. The City Clerk also advised that 'she had received no written protests to the assessment for the improvement of Woodruff Way. Mayor Pro Tempore Balser then inquired if anyone in the audience desired JINDEXED to be heard either in favor of or in opposition to the assessment for the improvement of Woodruff Way. I Mr. Charles D. Mussey, 2512 Woodruff Way, addressed the Council, request- ing information as to the procedure in which individual properties in this instance were assessed, commenting that his amount seemed rather high. It was explained that the 1911 Act is one of the most expensive methods of procedure; that small jobs such as this one can be done more economically on a contract basis with City inspection where there is unanimous agreement of all property owners concerned but that procedure under the 1911 Act is a statutory means of compelling each property owner served by the improvement to pay his proportionate share. The Director of Public Works summarized the method of assessing properties. The City Manager commented that procedure under both the 1911 and 1913 Acts seems antiquated and that assessment procedure in some states is handled more economically by other methods; that the matter might be called to, the attention of the Public Works Division of the League of California Cities. The City Attorney remarked that one advantage of the 1911 Act procedure is that it permits the matter to go to bond as to those persons who cannot or do not choose to pay cash. 1. 9- 20- 60 5117 (Hearing - Woodruff Way - Continued) RESOLUTION No. 3300 11' ~' ~ 'f, .

I No one else desiring to be heard motion was made by Councilman Phillips that the hearing be closed. Councilman Reibold seconded the motion which was carried unanimously. The City Attorney advised that Mr. Royal Sorenson, Special Counsel conducting these proceedings was present in the audience. There having been no protests received in the matter, the City Attorney then presented, explained the content and read the title of Resolution No. 3300, entitled: "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA CONFIRMING THE ASSESSMENT FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF WOODRUFF WAY." Motion by Councilman Phillips, seconded by Councilman Reibold and carried on roll call vote as follows that the reading of the full body of Resolution No. 3300 be waived: AYES: Councilmen Butterworth, Reibold, Phillips, Balser NOES: None ABSENT: Mayor Camphouse Councilman Phillips further moved that Resolution No. 3300 be adopted. Councilman Reibold seconded the motion which was carried on roll call vote as follows: AYES: Councilmen Butterworth, Reibold, Phillips, Balser NOES: None ABSENT: Mayor Camphouse Mayor Pro Tempore Balser commended the City Manager for his suggestion to refer the method of assessment procedure to the League of California Cities,and requested that he confer'with the Director of pubiic Works and report back to the Council for determination as to action that might beCtaken in the matter in this regard. I Mayor Pro Tempore Balser declared the hearing open on Planning Commission Resolution No. 392 recommending that the application of Earl R. Wragg for a change of zone from R-2 to R-3 at 2515 South Sixth Avenue be denied, but that a variance be granted to allow'no more than eight dwelling units on the subject property, subject to all the regulations of Zone R-3. Said resolution further stated in part as follows, to wit: That subject property presently zoned R-2 lies between property on the east and north zoned for and developed to R-l uses and property on the south which is zoned R-3; that the R-2 zoning has served as a buffer between the R-l and R-3 zones. That rezoning to R-3, with the type and number of multiple dwellings that could then be constructed would be detrimental to the single-family residences in the neighborhood but that certain restrictions would still allow the property to serve as a buffer zone 2. 9- 20- 60 (Hearing - Zone Change Wragg - Continued) I ,~oo" fJ A 1;1 .:rJrDk,'lI'~ <'-"'Xl - I 5118 between property zoned R-l and property zoned R-3 without detriment to '. neighboring single-family residences. That plans for subject property show a proposed street at the north side which would act as a buffer to the R-l property at the north. That all property on the west side of Sixth Avenue between Live Oak Avenue and the proposed street with the exception of subject property is zoned either C-2 or R-3, and that the granting of a variance for specified multiple-family uses with certain restrictions will not be detrimental nor adversely affect the comprehensive general plan. Mayor pro Tempore Balser then inquired if anyone in the audience desired to speak either in favor of or in opposition to th~ requested zone change. Mayor camphouse arrived at the Council meeting at 8:20 P.M. Mr. Alfred Allen, 1045 W. Huntington Drive addressed the Council, respectfully requesting that the Council reconsider the recommendation of the Planning Commission, stating in substance that such recommendation would make it economically unfeasible to continue with Tract No. 25782 (subdivision to the east and north of subject property, upon which approval had been granted); that the recommendation of the Planning Commission that eight dwelling units be built on the subject property was also economically unsound; that the requested R-3 zone change would permit the construction of an apartment house of at least 12 units and that if so desired he would covenant to the City that such building would contain not more than 12 units. He added that the apartment building he proposed to erect would be in keeping with the comprehensive general p~an of the attractive R-l properties in the area; also that in his opinion R-2 zoning was not in keeping with the trend of the times. Thereafter the following persons addressed the Council, favoring the recommendation of the Planning Commission, and stating in part that their primary objections to the erection of an apartment building on the subject property were that the apartment house dwellers will USe Lenta Lane as a garage exit, increasing traffic on Lenta Lane and creating a traffic hazard to their children playing in the street; and that their's is a residential neighborhood and an apartment house in the near vicinity will depreciate the value of their property: Mr. John R. Smith, 2231 Lenta Lane Mr. Leo Ullman, 2230 Lenta Lane Mr. Fred McCormick, 2311 Lenta Lane No one else desiring to be heard Councilman Phillips moved that the hearing be closed. Councilman Butterworth seconded the motion 'which was carried unanimously. A general discussion then ensued. Councilman Butterworth stated in part that he was inclined under the.circumstances to sustain:the recommendation of the Planning Commission. Councilman Balser stated in part that he personally had generally opposed R-3 zoning; however, in this particular case due to the economics involved and in order to develop the landlocked area the apartment house, in his opinion, would not be detrimental to the neighborhood. He added that he hoped Mr. Allen would make every effor~ to have as many garages on the east end as possible. Councilman Phillips stated in part that for many years the Council has been endeavoring to provide some relief to landlocked areas and that if denial of the requested R-3 zone would cause the progress thus far achieved to retrograde that in his opinion the advantages outweigh any disadvantages. That he therefore moved that Council not sustain the recommendation of the Planning Commission and that a zone change from R-2 to &-3 be granted Earl R. Wragg at. 2~15 South Sixth Avenue. Council- man Reibold seconded the motion which was carried on roll call vote as follows: 3. 9-20-60 5119 (Hearing - Zone Change Wragg - Continued) HEARING (Zone Change Ralphs Grocery) g~~J .I.NDEXE.r.l HEARING (Sale - Blanchard) 1~~- AYES: Councilmen Reibold, Phillips, Balser NOES: Councilmen Camphouse, Butterworth ABSENT: None Upon the City Attorney advising that R-3 zoning permits 14 units instead of the 12 proposed, and upon receiving Mr. Allen's assurance that he would covenant that no more than 12 units would be constructed on the property in question, Councilman Phillips, after receiving the approval of Councilman Reibold who seconded his motion, moved that the following be added to his motion: "...satisfactory,provisions being made that no more than a total of 12 units will be constructed upon the property shown as presently zoned R~2 and proposed to be changed to R-3".

Sycamore Avenue, to be added to the market site at 211 East Foothill Blvd. After the Director of Public Works indicated the property in question on the map, Mayor Camphouse declared the hearing open on said application and inquired if anyone in the audience desired to speak in favor of or in opposition to the requested zone change. The following persons addressed the Council: Mr. Thomas Suttner, 50 N. First Avenue, an attorney representing the applicant, stated in substance that the acquisition of the land in question had been the subject of a previous discussion with the Council when the rest of the property was acquired and zoned; that it was for the purpose of straightening out the boundary of the market site and that the Planning Commission and the Council had previously approved the lot split which made this acquisition possible. Mr. David H. Crane, 234 E. Sycamore Avenue stated in part that he would appreciate it if the Council, in the interest of conformity, would assure him that they would favorably consider his application for the same zoning on the rear 45 feet of lot 9 of said tract if he should so request. Mr. Edward A. Sonnenfeld, 246 E. Sycamore, stated in substance that he feared such rezoning, if continued, would creep and soon abut his property, thus defeating the residential aspect of the area. Mayor Camphouse advised that the subject hearing had no reference to properties owned by both persons - pertaining only to Ralphs Market. I No one else desiring to be heard Councilman Butterworth moved that the hearing be closed. Councilman Reibold seconded the motion which was carried unanimously.

Tract located on Fairview Avenue east, of Holly Avenue containing 8 lots. The Director of Public Works explained that the subdivider has requested the establishment of a trust to provide that two parcels on the south side of Fairview Avenue, not included in the tract, shall pay their proportionate share of the cost of the street at such time as they elect to use the street. The amount of said trust is recommended to be $5,622.48 to be divided equally between the two parcels. The owners of the two affected parcels protested to the Planning Commission the amount of the trust and the method used for distribution of the costs; however, the Director of Public Works and the Planning Commission were of the opinion that the method and proposed amount were both reasonable and fair. The Director of Public Works spoke at length on the distribution of costs, benefits, the need for installation of curbs, gutters, sewers and pavement; and also displayed the final map of said subdivision. Dr. Ray Allen Young, 650 West Duarte Road, addressed the Council at length, stating in part that he felt as a property owner he would not receive any benefit from the subdivision as proposed; that he did not feel it fair to be asked by the City to give 12 feet for the widening of Duarte Road with no remuneration; that he was willing to sell the rear of his property to the subdivider (Alfred Allen) for the price offered (approximately $7500.00) but that he would like to have Council postpone final map approval of Tract No. 25253 until he had filed an application and received approval of a lot split at the rear of his property. Mr. Thomas H. English, 351 W. Duarte Road also addressed the Council, concurring in the statements made by Dr. Young. I The City Attorney explained the procedure in applying for a lot split to both the above property owners, and Mayor Camphouse commented that the staff would be willing to assist them in arriving at the best use of their land. He added that the matter before the Council at this time was the request for final map approval of Tract No. 25253 and not the lot split request presented by both protesting property owners. It was also stated that they could do as they wished with their properties and that there was no compulsion being placed upon them to deed the 12 feet. Planning Commissioner Golisch summarized briefly the manner in which the Planning Commission had arrived at their decision to approve the subject subdivision tract, which would include the creation of a subdivision trust. 6. 9- 20- 60 (Tr ac t No. 25253 - Continued) I LOT SPLIT (Final) ~'~'a JIlYDE,:;OJ;IJ.
