Appeal of Mrs. Genevieve Burnell Forgey, 290 North Foothill Blvd. from decision of Planning Commission on her lot split application , for property on.Foothill Boulevard at Burnell Oaks Lane. Commission recommended a denial of her application. Matter continued from meeting of August 20, at request of ' her attorney. Gordon L. Lund, Attorney, addressed the Council on behalf of Mrs. Forgey, stating in substance that the chief objection from one of the Planning Commissioners was that the proposed lots would give the appearance of being placed in the front yard of the existing residence; that the applicant proposes to remove the existing driveway on Foothill and to provide access/for all three parcels from Burnell Oaks Lane; that the lots are allover the minimum size requirement; and that the lot split is in the best . interest of the land. (' Councilman Reibold remarked that when Tract No. 20642 was formed recently, the applicant would not go along, and consequently the lots on the western side of the tract were made smaller than was desired. Councilman Phillips reiterated that the applicant refused to comply with the request of subdividing at that time in order to create a more orderly,subdivision. Motion was made by Councilman Jacobi that due to the peculiarities of the lot split and the recommendations of the Planning Commis- sion, the City Council hold this matter over until they have had the opportunity to study it first-hand by personally viewing the property in question. Said motion was seconded by Councilman Reibold and carried unanimously. Lot Split No. 168 (Pat Carmical, 624 Norman Avenue) recommended for approval, subject to the following conditions: 1. File a final map with the City Engineer; 2. Pay $25.00 recreation fee; 3.

Said motion was seconded by Councilman Reibold and carried unanimously. Lot Split No. 167 (Charles E. McClain, 1031 South Eighth Avenue) recommended for denial as the proposed lots would not conform with the established standards and there are not enough sub- standard lots in the area to warrant a variance from the fixed standards.

Mr. Leslie M. Talley, acting as City Clerk, reported that during the meeting he had been presented with a letter concerning this matter from Mr. John Morse, President of Home Owners' Association of Southern Arcadia,_ He read the communication which protested the removal of trees on Santa Anita and also the widening of Santa Anita Avenue. Mr. Morse addressed the Council reiterating the written protest of the Association he represented; that they felt the proposed widening of Huntington Place and Santa Anita Avenue were for the funneling of race track traffic through the residential area. Councilman Phillips reported that the widening of Huntington Place started back in 1954 or 1955, long before the beginning of the beautification project; that the acquisition of twenty feet of land in the County Park for the proposed widening had to be approved by Congress; that the bill introduced for such approval had become lost in. the last session of Congress, but that it finally passed a day or so before Congress adjourned. Councilman Reibold wanted to know whether the issue with which Mr. Morse was concerned was one of beautification or merely that of road widening; that he would like to clarify that the proposed widening of Santa Anita Avenue would not increase the number of lanes of traffic, but merely widen the existing lanes and parking area so as not to present the traffic hazard as now exists on that street. Motion was made by Councilman Reibold that the City Council approve the specifications for the removal of thirty-six trees from the center parkway on Santa Anita Avenue in the City of Arcadia, as prepared by the Engineering Department and submitted herewith, and authorize the City Clerk to call for bids for such work, the bids to be opened at 11:00 a.m., September 16,1957. Said motion was seconded by Councilman Jacobi and carried unanimously. Recommendation of the City Manager.that the City Council accept benches from the L. A. Turf Club as a gift. The Staff had recommended that 2,000 linear feet'of these benches could be used in the existing parks and in the "Wilderness Area". Motion was made by Councilman Phillips that the City Council accept the recommendation of the City Manager and accept the gift of 2,000 linear feet of benches .from the Los Angeles Turf Club and that the Manager be instructed to write a letter thank- ing the L. A. Turf Club for their gift. Said motion was seconded by Councilman Jacobi and carried unanimously. Request of Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Pinney, 437 West Longden Avenue, for a variance from the Building Code to allow an addition to a non-conforming building in excess of 50 per cent of its value. Section 104 (b) of the Code states that when additions within any twelve month period exceed 50 per cent of the value of an exist- ing building, such building shall be made to conform in its entirety to the requirement for new buildings. Recommended for denial by Planning Commission. 5. 9-3-57 3954: ARCADIA COMMUNITY THEATER INDEXED H'D . lteL' R f""'I,'-VO, , SKIATRON TV .INDEXED J~V: Elmo Vickers, Attorney, 3409 1/2 Beverly, Montebello, addressed the Council on behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Pinney, stating in substance that even though what the applicant is proposing to do is in violation of'the letter of the code it is living up to the spirit of.the Code; that the final outcome would be an improve- ment advantageous to the neighborhood; that here is an e~ception to the Code where an inequity is created; that though the applicants will have an entirely new building, conforming to the Building Code, for their home; that, because of economic reasons, they must use the old structure for bedroom quarters until the entire project is completed. Mr. Ralph Pinney, the applicant, addressed the Council, stating in substance that it would be a hardship not to retain the old structure for living quarters in the meantime, or to have it I conform to the Code; that he had gone to thirteen neighbors who were all happy to sign a petition to support them in their request for a variance. Mayor Pro Tempore Phillips remarked that this was not a hearing but that they were giving the applicant an opportunity to be heard; and that he felt it would be better for the Council to study the problem by looking at the property rather than give a snap judgment at this time. Councilman Reibold felt that granting this variance might establish a precedent, but that a study of the property first-hand might reveal to the Council that the requested variance is warranted; he believed such a study should be made by the Council before deciding the matter. Motion was made by Councilman Reibold that the matter be held over until the Council has made a study of the property first- hand. Said motion was seconded by Councilman Phillips and carried unanimously. Request to hang banners on streets and to place two ticket booths on the streets in connection with Arcadia Community Theater Week, September 22 through 28. Recommendation of the City Manage~ that it be denied as it has been the policy of the City to approve hanging of banners for only the Los Angeles County Fair and the Blood Bank. Mr. Charles E. Shugert, President of the Arcadia Community Theatre, Inc. addressed the Council, reiterating their request. Councilman Phillips expressed appreciation for the activities of the Little Theatre Group; however, he felt that granting their request would open the road for many other similar requests from other civic organizations, and that banners and similar advertising matter would be hanging on the streets almost constantly. Councilman Phillips suggested that ticket booths be placed on private property in the same vicinity rather than on public property. I Motion was made by Councilman Phillips that the request of the Arcadia Community Theatre, Inc., be denied. Said motion was seconded by Councilman Reibold and carried unanimously. Request of Skiatron, TV, Inc. for a license to operate a closed circuit television system. The City Manager reported that this is the second such request that has been received and that doubtless there will be many others; that it was his recommendation to file the communications and stand by to see what happens in the surrounding communities; that he felt it would be better to tie in with a larger cO(lllDunity. 6. 9-3-57 CONFERENCE INDExElf J:1~fo&REj.J:Ct)N~.

Request of Recreation Director that the Recreation Commissioners and he be granted permission to attend the 39th National Recreation Congress to be conducted in Long Beach on September 30 through October 4, 1957. It was the consensus of the Council members that the Recreation Commissioners be urged to attend conferences because of the benefits that would accrue to their understanding of the problems of their commissions. Motion was made by Councilman Jacobi that the Recreation Com- missioners and the Recreation Director be authorized to attend the 39th National Recreation Congress in Long Beach on September 30 through October 4, 1957, at a total cost not to exceed $200.00, the expenditures to be substantiated by itemized expense account upon return and approved by the City Manager and City Controller.

Motion was made by Councilman Phillips that the request of the Arcadia Firemen's Association to use the City-owned lot at the corner of Santa Anita and Duarte"Road for their annual sale of Christmas trees be granted. Said motion was seconded by Councilman Jacobi and carried unanimously. Notices of the following proposed annexations: 1.

Councilman Jacobi brought up the matter of the traffic signal on Huntington Drive at the viaduct; that he felt it'was a hazard as many drivers are confused as to where they should stop. The City Engineer reported that they had written to the Division of Highways about the matter, but have not as yet had an anSwer. The Acting City Clerk reported that he had a letter from the Planning Commission requesting a joint meeting with the Council to be arranged at their earliest convenience when all Councilmen could be present; that they wanted to discuss matters of general policy. Mayor Pro Tempore Phillips requested the City Manager to set up such a meeting. I The City Manager reported that he had received a letter from the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company advising that the work of installing the timeout circuits at Santa Anita Avenue and First Avenue in Arcadia was completed on July 26, 1957. Request of the Chamber of Commerce to install ten street banners on business streets and at major entrances to the City and to be displayed between September 12 and 23, the event to be entered into by all major business districts in the City. Councilmen Reibold and Phillips remarked that the Council was in a peculiar situation, having just denied a similar request; but that this was somewhat different from the requests of individual civic organizations in that this was the cornanation of all major bu~iness districts in the City in a combined effort to increas~ retail sales in the City, from which the City benefits by way of sales tax, and that it is also an organization receiv- ing support from the City. Motion was made by Councilman Reibold that the City Council approve the request of the Chamber of Commerce to hang banners as contained in their letter of September 3, 1957. Said motion was seconded by Councilman Phillips and carried on roll call vote as follows: AYES: Qouncilmen Jacobi, Reibold and Phillips NOES: None ABSENT: Councilmen Camphouse and Dennis Request of the City Manager to be given permission to attend the 43rd Annual Conference of the International City Managers Association to be held at the Statler Hotel in Washington, D.

Councilman Reibold replied that he heartily agreed that all statements made in a council meeting were public utterances and that he was sure the Council had no desire to restrict the press in reporting the full proceedings before the Council; that his statement should be construed in the light of the attendant circumstances, namely, that the Councilmen had in- dulged in certain levity and his remarks were intended only that the council minutes need not be cluttered with additional humor. The City Manager reported that the City owned three lots on Santa Anita Avenue between Alice and Genoa Streets, but there were three lots still to be acquired for the proposed fire station site; that several weeks ago negotiations were begun to acquire two of the parcels; that the parcel at 716 Santa Anita Avenue, owned by Gladys D. Coe, was offered for sale at $10,000 net to her; that this seemed a fair price, considering that the cost of a condemnation suit'and the attendant delays would be eliminated. That the second parcel at 720-724 Santa Anita, owned by Mr. Schmidt, could be bought at $41,000, subject to the usual escrow conditions, except that the City would take title subject to current taxes and allow the owner to remain in posses- sion and receive rents up to December 31, 1957; that this parcel had been appraised at $37,000; that the total cost of acquiring these two parcels would be $51,000; that it was his recommend- ation that two parcels be purchased at the cost of $51,000, and that the City Manager be authorized to execute escrow instruct- ions and complete the negotiations accordingly in the form and manner approved by the City Attorney. Motion was made by Councilman Reibold that the City Councilmen accept the recommendation of the City Manager and start escrow on the two parcels at 716 South Santa Anita Avenue and at 720-724 South Santa Anita Avenue, the former at the price of $10,000 and I the latter at $41,000; .and that the sum of $51,000 be appropri- ated from Capital Projects Fund for the purchase of said two parcels.
