Appeal of Bob Rodine, Rodine Enterprises-Builders, Inc., 5327 N. Peck
Road, El Monte, from the decision of the Planning Commission for denial
of their request for modifications for industrial building on Lots 1810
and 1811 of the Chicago Park Track -- (Goldring Road). Staff submitted
that the Commission voted 4 to 2 with one absent to deny this for rea-
sons set forth in staff report dated December 15, 1981.
Mayor Gilb declared the hearing open and Ken Browne, attorney, 615 S.
Flower Street, Los Angeles, representing the firm, circulated color
renderings of the subject site. He said in part that the subject prop- 1
erty has never been part of a Trust referred to by Mr. Hendler ... has
always been an independent ownership. He told of unsuccessful endeavors
to acquire more property and asked Council to consider the appeal favor-
ably.
Bob Rodine, 5327 N. Peck Road, said the building he has in mind would
be attractive and an asset to the area ... he realized the lot size is
the major thing and said he is frustrated over the situation in his in-
ability to acquire more land. He said that in 1977 he realized there
was a 15,000 sq. ft. minimum requirement but he felt in time that obsta-
cle could be overcome.
Wallace Rodine, 5327 N. Peck Road, explained in detail the background of
-2-
lz-15-81

25:0409c
32 years that he has been in the area and the need for the new building
and they would begin construction immediately if the appeal is granted.
In response to a question he said they have made several attempts to
make a land swap.
Sheldon Aooel, 11000 Alta Loma Road, Los Angeles, associated with Mr.
Hendler in the proposed industrial development in Chicago Park, express-
ed concern about the deviation from the 15,000 sq. ft. requirement and
urged Council to deny the request.
Henry Hendler, 1372 Benedict Canyon, Beverly Hlls, said in part that
he is confused about the expressed statements of the Rodines being un-
able to contact him about the purchase of more land. He said he would
be glad to purchase Rodine's property... they want to make their devel-
opment first class and do not want substandard buildings adjacent .. he
said he would be glad to talk with the Rodines. In response to a question
he said they would be willing to discuss a land swap arrangement.
In order for the parties concerned to see if something could be worked
out between them it was MOVED by Councilman Dring, seconded by Council-
man Pellegrino and carried unanimously that the hearing be continued to
January 5, 1982.
Appeal of Fred Bowden, owner of 610-618 N. Santa Anita Avenue, from the
decision of the Planning Commission for denial of his Tract No. 29290
for a commercial condominium at said address. Staff advised on the rea-
sons the Commission voted 4 to 2 with one absent to deny this tract .,.
primarily those voting to deny were concerned with the density of the
project and traffic circulation .. that the site is not physically suit-
ed for the density of development. The consenting Commissioners noted
'I, -Y l that construction has al ready commenced on the office building and that
1/ /2q -~-.? the site has its problems and that the proposed plan was the best alter-
- native available.

of the Agency - the Agency adjourned to a CLOSED SESSION for further con-
sideration.

AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION
Sherry Passmore, 11 09 Co I umbi a Road, Arcadi a, propounded ques ti ons con-
cerning what authority and responsibility the City has to become involved
with the issuance of bonds for a private developer who is in a position
to go ahead on his own. (Reference was being made to the issuance of
industrial development bonds for a proposed 196,000 sq. ft. industrial
facility as presented by Chicago Park Partnership) ... and how it relates
to Proposition 13. The City Attorney responded in part that under the
City Charter the City has the power to issue tax exempt revenue bonds ...
none of the City's money nor the taxing power of the City nor any other
obligations are attached to the bonds. It was noted that this is only
the initiation of the process; that the bank or the developer will pay
for the insurance Dolicy Dremium - not the City.

Discussion held on the proposed issuance of industrial development bonds
for a proposed 196,000 sq. ft., industrial facility as presented by Chi-
cago Park Partnership. The staff report set forth in detail the project
description, the financing which was elaborated upon by Robert Feyer of
Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe, of San Francisco. It was also noted that
the Chicago Park area has been slow to develop and over the past several
years as a result of title being cleared and street improvements various
small scale industrial developments have taken place. It remains as a
center! for freelance dumping of trash, shrubs and stolen or abandoned
vehicles. The ordinance if adopted would only be an intent ... and can
be amended. Entire contents of the ordinance were reviewed and some de-
letions were made.
During this consideration a communication from William J. Moran of Moran
Properties, Inc., 45 E. Huntington Drive, Arcadia, was placed in the rec-
ord. Mr. Moran could not attend the meeting but asked to go on record as
being in complete support of the project,
Whereupon the City Attorney presented and read the title of Ordinance No.
1737, entitled: "AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA AMENDING THE ARCA-
DIA MUNICIPAL CODE BY ADDING CHAPTER 7.5 TO ARTICLE II THEREOF PROVIDING
FOR THE CITY OF ARCADIA ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT REVENUE BOND LAW AUTHORIZING
THE ISSUANCE OF REVENUE BONDS FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING FINANCING TO

Council entered a CLOSED SESSION and reconvened.
Noted that the Deputy Lord Mayor of Newcastle, Australia will soon be
vi sting the City... about December 29. He is coming primarily because
the Rose Parade will include Arcadia's float recognizing the relationship
between the Sister Cities. He explored some of the activities which are
being planned for the short stay.
Councilman Saelid MOVED to adjourn the meeting in memory of Ezra B. Hin-
shaw who passed away December 2.
"On December 2nd of thi s month a man passed away who contri buted far mOI'e
to the development of our City than most of us can ever hope to equal.
This man was Ezra B. Hinshaw. Mr. Hinshaw was not a resident of Arcadia,
but neverthless his imprint will be on the Community for many years to
come.

"In 1952 Mr. Hinshaw, who had organized a group of experienced merchan-
disers, opened the first store which bears his name in Arcadia. The con-
fidence he displayed in our City by the establishment of this department
store coupled with his dedication to the highest of ideals earned the
respect and repeated patronage of Arcadians as well as many from surround-

ing areas. Mr. Hinshaw's strong beliefs in American ideals a part
of the store's emblem which states: "Pro Deo Patria Domo", "For God,
Country and Home." His attitude, sincerity and integrity are a part of
the legacy he leaves behind.

"Mr. Hinshaw was personally active in many civic organizations and re-
ceived many awards and citations for his leadership, contributions and
services from groups which include-the Freedoms Foundation at Valley
Forge, the Sertoma Club, Big Brothers of Greater Los Angeles, the
Southern California Chapter of National Multiple Sclerosis Society,
the American National Red Cross, Los Angeles Community Chest, Whittier
Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital, Whittier College and Whittier
Union High School District. A member of the Kiwanis for 43 years, he
was an Honorary Member of Kiwanis International."
Although I was not privileged to know Mr. Hinshaw personally, I was
honored several years ago to present him with a plaque on behalf of
our City at a luncheon given in his honor.
Arcadia has truly benefitted from the foresight of this man which brought
about the commercial development of West Arcadia.
Mr. Mayor, I MOVE that we adjourn
fine gentleman, Ezra B. Hinshaw.
