Councilman Reibold seconded the motion which was ,carried on roll call vote as follows: AYES: Councilmen Balser, Butterworth, Reibold, Phillips, Camphouse NOES: None ABSENT: None Mayor Camphouse called upon the members of the Council .for their considered opinions regarding the matter of zoning of Annexation No. 14, consisting of property located generally on the west side of Baldwin 1 Avenue between Camino Real Avenue and Callita Street, which had been taken under advisement at the Council meeting of October 4, 1960. He commented that since hearings had been held on the matter, and said hearings having been closed, it would be improper to introduce new evidence at this time and therefore he could not, as requested, afford any person in the audience an opportunity to be heard at this time. The following opinions in substance were expressed by the Council: Councilman Butterworth stated in part that although he had not been present at the October 4, 1960 hearing he had listened to the tape recording of the proceedings and had examined the minutes of the Council and the Planning Commission on the subject matter. He mentioned parenthetically that he had been' contacted by individuals for the purpose of arguing the merits of their position but had declined to discuss the matter privately as in his judgment there should be no private discussions on matters pending before the City Council. Councilman Butterworth continued, stating in part that he was opposed generally to the extension of commercial zoning south on Baldwin Avenue or either east or west on Camino Real Avenue because of his belief that this is essentially a residential area, and that unless his opinion was altered by arguments of the Council, he would oppose the rezoning of the southwest corner of Baldwin Avenue and Camino Real and the northwest and southwest corners of Baldwin Avenue and Callita Street; that he favored the granting of a special use permit for the construction of a convalescent home at 1601-1609 South Baldwin Avenue; that in his opinion it wpuld act as a buffer zone and that he was impressed with the manner in which the convalescent home would be operated and its need in the community. Councilman Balser stated in part that he was opposed to commercial zoning creeping either north or south on Baldwin Avenue and that he felt the Council owed the residents in the area protection in this respect. He mentioned that if the line were held in this respect Emperor Street could come in and be developed as residential. He continued that he felt the northwest corner of Callita Street and Baldwin Avenue could be zoned R-l and everything south of that should be Zone R-l; that on the other 1 property he agreed it would not seem reasonable to have R-l across the street from the recently granted Zone R-3 on the east side of Baldwin Avenue or that it would be reasonable zoning to have Zone R-l across from the large commercial development on Camino Real and Baldwin Avenues on the east side; that he would favor a commercial development on the southwest corner of Camino Real and Baldwin Avenues rather than Zone R-3 as he felt there is too much Zone R-3 in Arcadia, and that adjacent to Zone R-2 Zone C-l would be a better development. That he would favor the granting of a special use permit for the construction of a convalescent home as designated at 1601-1609 South Baldwin Avenue. Councilman Phillips favored Zone C-2 development on the southwest corner of Baldwin Avenue and Camino Real Avenue, Zone c-o on the southwest corner of Callita Street and Baldwin Avenue, and C-l or C-O on the northwest corner of Callita Street and Baldwin Avenue. That he favored the granting of the special use permit for the construction of a convalescent home at 2. 10-18-60 ..,'. 5146 (Continued - Annex. 14 Zoning, etc.) 1601-1609 South Baldwin Avenue in preference to 'an R-3 development, the governing factor in this respect being the questio~ of the density of population. 1 Councilman Reibold spoke at length relative to the history, principles involved and the future effect of councilmanic action on the zoning of the subject property, stating in substance that he favored the zoning as shown on the map designated No.3, which. sets forth commercial use on the Camino Real Avenue corner, Zone C-l on the north corner of Callita Street and professional use on the south corner. That he favored the special use for the proposed convalescent home ,inasmuch as,it is not only essential but is well planned in a use where there would be a, minimum adverse reaction. Councilman Reibold further commented that he did not agree with Co~ncil- man,Butterworth's statement that it is improper to discuss privately with interested persons matters pending before the Council, inasmuch as the Council membe~s are elected representatives of,the,people and cannot cut themselves off from personal contact. Mayor Camp house commented that a program should be developed for Baldwin Avenue as a whole in order to prevent future problems and cited as an example the technique used on the curve of Colorado Blvd. adjacent to Colorado Oaks which might be used, to protect the uses on the east side of Baldwin ,Avenue. He added that he favored Zone C-2 for the southwest corner of Camino Real Avenue and either C-l or, c-o for the northwest and southwest corners of Baldwin Avenue and Callita Street; also that he favored granting the special use permit for a convalescent home at ,1601-1609 South Baldwin Avenue. Councilman Phillips then moved, after calling the attention of the Council to a communication dated July 21, 1960 from the Zoning Committee and the Staff to the Planning Commission relative to the subject property and a .'J' letter from the City Manager dated October la, 1960, that the recommen- dation as stated in said letter of July 21, 1960 be modified to change the zone on the northwest corner of Callita Street and Baldwin Avenue from C-l to C-O, or an R-l zone to all the property subject to a variance for C-2 uses on the southwest corner of Camino Real and Baldwin Avenues; R-l single family usage for the rear 200 feet of the Clarizio property, the front half being a special use for a convalescent home and on both corners of Callita Street being C-O and.that the following conditions be imposed: 1. All of the individual parcels shall be developed in substantial compliance with the plans and plot plans submitted. 2. All of the buildings shall be limited to one story in height. 1 3.

Mrs. Elaine Park, the applicant, addressed the Council, stating in substance that in her opinion two new dwellings on two lots of approximately 50 feet each would enhance the appearance of the street INDEXED more than the present house on one lot.
