Mayor Hage declared the hearing open and no one desiring to be heard the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Arth and carried unanimously. Whereupon it was further MOVED by Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Scott and carried unanimously that the recommendation be ACCEPTED and that the City Attorney prepare the appropriate ordinance to effect the amendment to the Municipal Code. Recommendation of the Planning Commission concerning certain amendments to the Municipal Code relating to street setback lines as set forth in its Resolution No. 776. The Planning Director explained the proposed changes as outlined in the resolution. Mayor Hage declared the hearing open and no one desiring to be heard the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Arth and carried unanimously. Whereupon it was further MOVED by-Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Scott and carried unanimously that the recommendation be ACCEPTED and that the City Attorney prepare the appropriate ordinance to effect the amendment to the Municipal Code. The Planning Commission by its Resolution No. 777 denied an appli- cation filed by John H. and Beatrice L. Stone, et al, for a change of zone from R-l to C-O at 503 and 509 W. Duarte Road and 1111 and 1117 La Cadena Avenue. The applicants subsequently appealed this decision 5-16-72 - 1 - 19:8065 to the City Council and a public hearing was scheduled for this date. The Planning Director explained that the property is presently improved with 5 single dwellings on 4 lots. He noted the surrounding develop- ments, apartments and condominiums, single family homes, a church. The applicants propose to construct a professional office building, however, he noted that the General Plan indicates the area as high density residential. He felt the most desirable plan would be if the 4 lots were assembled into one lot and developed with the General Plan indication. The Commission recommends denial of the application based on the following reasons: 1) the use of the property would not be compatible with the recently adopted General Plan; 2) there is adequate" existing c-o property within the city which has not been fully develope4 or utilized; 3) the subject property is not contiguous to any commercial zoning - only to R-3 zoning or to property otherwise indicated on the General Plan as high residential and 4) the commercial zoning of these lots would not insure or guarantee the development of all of the parcels unless it were under a piecemeal development. I Mayor Hage declared the hearing open and John H. Stone, one of the applicants residing at 503 W. Duarte Road, stated in part that the owners of the property are faced with a rather critical situation; that an apartment is just not feasible. He noted the setback situation which would take an adjustment for apartments. He explained that there was a group of doctors who desired to construct a small one-story building which would be in keeping with the residential concept of the area. He referred to his petition signed by the property owners adjacent to the subject lots and that there was no opposition. In closing he observed in part that further R-3 development in the area is unnecessary - ,here being other R-3 properties not being utilized and felt that the C-O zoned property referred to by the Planning Director is not so conveniently located as the subject land. He asked for favorable consideration of his appeal. Paul Voegeli, 504 W. Norman Avenue, noted contents of the General Plan relating to residential use and commented that it would not be long before the city would no longer be a community of homes if the remaining residential property is rezoned. He noted commercially zoned areas which are not doing well and also the impact of the future Fashion Park on those areas, at least for a period of time. Victor A. Bruno, Jr., 1140 W. Duarte Road, representing the owner of 1103 La Cadena Avenue, referred to the plan to construct a multi- residential structure at this location and that a commercial develop- ment on the property at issue would detract from the value of his property. He urged denial of the appeal. The Planning Director advised of a letter of opposition from Marion B. Jones, 471 W. Duarte Road. Mr. Stone addressed Council again referring to the requirement for medical parking; that in his plan for 3 medical units the property would be able to provide 32 parking spaces which is the requirement. I In answer to an inquiry by Councilman Arth Mr. Stone said the owners would be willing to stipulate that the buildings would not be more than Qne story. In answer to an inquiry by Councilman Scott Mr. Stone said efforts have been made to consolid~te the four properties under the new zoning regulations, that is, high density r~sidential; however, the subject owners prefer C-O and especially with the opportunity presented to them at this time by the interested doctors. No one else desiring to be heard the hearing wss CLOSED on MOTION by Councilman Hage, seconded by Councilman Arth and carried unanimously. Councilman Helms stated in part that he has a great deal of sympathy for the applicants in their desires and that he can understand a ~esire 5-16-72 - 2 - MOTION rO DENY I HEARING City-owned land sold :::J- 0-0 7 I RESOLUTION NO. 4261 ADOPTED d I;)-~ 7 TENTATIVE TRACT NO. 24723 (Referred back to Planning: Commission) ..9- (l- 71- .....,,' if:., {"',I '>,11 19:8066 to upgrade a zoning which would be economically more desirable and he certainly has no objection to that where it would not be detrimental to the rest of the community; however, in the subject situation there is something more significant in that over two years of study and a considerable amount of money has been spent developing the recently adopted General Plan which indicates the area as high density resi- dential, that in effect a rezoning would nullify the General Plan; that if it is done in one instance the protection of the General Plan to guard against further encroachment of commercial uses in other , sensitive areas of the city would be lost. He then MOVED to SUSTAIN the Planning Commission recommendation and that ,the APPEAL be DENIED. Councilman Arth seconded the motion and commented in part that he too has sympathy for the applicants, but that in his opinion this would actually be spot zoning; that it is an apartment area with limited mixing of uses; he felt any rezoning of that area would prove to be unfortunate in future years. Councilman Scott stated in part that he has great respect for the General Plan which will assist in the future development of the city. However, he recalled that it was to be a guide, that deviations can be ma~e from it. He felt that the properties in question should be developed all at one time. He indicated his intention to abstain from voting inasmuch as his own R-3 property is very close to the subject property. Some discussion held with the City Attorney concerning the legality of an abstention in this instance. In the opinion of the City Attorney Councilman Scott could abstain as it did not appear to be a matter of necessity in order to resolve the problem. Mayor Hage then called for the roll call: AYES: NOES: ABSTAIN: ABSENT: Councilmen Arth, Helms, Hage None Councilman Scott Councilman Butterworth This is the scheduled time and place for the receLvlng of bids for the sale of city owned property at 115 E. Wheeler Street (Lots 5, 6 and 7, Block 77, Santa Anita Tract). The City has received one offer in the amount of $22,750 net. Mayor Hage declared the hearing open for submission of bids. No one responding the hearing was CLOSED on MOTION by Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Scott and carried 'unanimously. It was MOVED by Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Arth and carried unanimously that the City accept the offer from Robert L. and Phyllis S. Walker for the purchase price of $22,750 pursuant to the terms set forth in the following resolution. The City Attorney presented, explained the content and read the title of Resolution No. 4261, entitled: "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCADIA AUTHORIZING THE SALE OF CITY-OWNED PROPERTY KNOWN AS 115 EAST WHEELER STREET." It was MOVED by Councilman Helms, seconded by Councilman Arth and carried on roll call vote as follows that the reading of the full body of the resolution be WAIVED and that the same be ADOPTED. AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Councilmen Arth, Helms, Scott, Hage None Councilman Butterworth The Planning Commission at its regular meeting of May 9 denied the tentative map of Tract No. 24723 located at 1224 and 1306 S. Fourth Avenue with six lots. It was the consensus of the Commission that the proposed subdivision did not provide adequate separation between the adjoining property to the east and that it appeared to be too much building on a too small lot. However, the Planning Director 5-16-72 - 3 - y', CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT RATIFIEr> HEARINGS / VSCHEDULED 19:8067 advised that some of the objections had been overcome by the subdivider. He circulated a revised plot plan. It was the consensus of Council that the new evidence should properly be considered by the Commission and it was MOVED by Councilman Arth, seconded by Councilman Scott and carried unanimously that the matter be referred back to the Commission for recommendation. All new evidence to be made available to that body. d"-'~ . Planning Commission Resolution No. 782 granted a conditional use permit ., ,. for a residential use at 504 - 508 W. Huntington Drive. The property- is vacant and zoned C-O & D. It was noted that a residential use is . permitted in that zone upon the granting of a conditional use permit. The property to the north across Huntington Drive is developed with the race track, the east is zoned C-O & D and developed with apartments and a professional office, the south is zoned R-3 and is so developed with property to the west developed with apartments and is zoned C-O & D. It is proposed to construct a 2-story complex with all parking provided in a subterranean garage which is consistent with the General Plan. The permit was granted subject to compliance with all applicable regulations of the Municipal Code and additional conditions contained in said resolution. I It was MOVED by Councilman Scott, seconded by Councilman Helms and carried unanimously that the action of the Planning Commission in granting the conditional use permit be and it is hereby RATIFIED. Planning Commission recommendations concerning amendments to the Municipal Code relating to conditional use permit fee schedule (Res. No. 779) and the establishment of filing fees for conditional use permits or extensions thereof (Res. No. 780) were scheduled for public hearings on June 6, 1972. Planning Commission recommendation concerning changes in the zoning regulations relating to the keeping of horses, cows and small animals (Res. No. 781) was scheduled for a public hearing July 5, 1972. (This date is a Wednesday). AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION /' / COMMUNICATIONS / Paul Voegeli, 504 W. Norman Avenue, referred to the parking situation at the West Arcadia Post Office location and the need for upgrading the existing mail receiving boxes. He was advised steps will be taken to improve the situation. Gary Dorn, 950 Coronado, commended Council for its recent denial of a request for permission to distribute handbills door to door and submitted advertising matter which had been placed at his door this date. Councilman Scott suggested that the press give coverage to the city's regulation against such practice. The City Attorney advised that steps are being taken to eliminate the nuisance of the throw- aways. I Council received and ordered FILED the following: a. Arcadia Board of Realtors commending the City on the development of mini-parks. b. Mrs. John R. Stahr, supporting the proposal to construct a park at the southeast corner of Camino Real and Second Avenue. c. David Stephens and Patti Daniel, recreation department employees, supporting the proposal to construct the above mentioned park. 5-16-72 - 4 - CAMINO GROVE PARK DISCUSSION ~/~3 I HUGO REID TRAFFIC 19:8063 In response to an inquiry by Councilman Scott the City Manager explained that initially the aforemenfioned land was purchas~d for park purposes and that the Recreation Commission will be considering a Park Designer for recommendation to Council. Councilman Arth wanted the record to indicate he is not opposed to the development of a park at the subject location which from a press article could have been so interpreted; that he had not even been present at the subject meeting. Mayor Hage advised'that jt has been Council's inteqt all along to hear from residents in the subject area and to obtain their prefer- '. I ences and/or ideas toward the development. This to be accomplished before any determination is made. Councilman Scot~ felt this should all be done before any expenditure is put forth for a park design which may not be used. ' On April 4 an informal hearing was conducted concerning trajfic operations on Hugo Reid Drive. This resulted from a traffic fatality of a small child on a bicycle. At that time Council r~quested staff to study the situation and submit two or more positive permanent solutions to bar 'Cht ~ racing traffic and traffic generated by the future Fashion Park from 1>' ~ this residential street. The solutions were to be reviewed by Council , 4 and then presented to the two resident associations involved (Rancho ~~ Santa Anita Residents' Association and the Santa Anita Village ' U Association.) The associations were to respond to Council in this regard by July l ai Council desired corrective action take place prior to the start of the Oak Tree racing season in the fall of this year. I In response thereto the City Manager and the Director of submitted two reports dated May 12 and 16 respectively. four traffic operation proposals in the first report: Public Works There were 1. Close Hugo Reid between Old Ranch Road and Baldwin between the hours of 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. 2. Operate Hugo Reid as a reversible one-way street between Baldwin and Old Ranch Road; 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. direction of travel west- bound only; 4 p.m.' to 6 p.m. direction of travel - east-bound only. 3. Temporary closure of Hugo Reid at Baldwin and Michillinda between the hours of 11 a.m, and 6 p.m. 4. One-way operation of Hugo Reid at Michillinda and at Baldwin that would prevent race track traffic. In the supplemental report staff indicated that the only positive permanent solution to prevent through traffic would be by physical closure of Hugo Reid. Ways of achieving this were outlined. However staff felt that the internal impact of such closure would not be in the best interests of the residents. Councilman Arth referred.to the former action of Council and indicated the need for moving ahead. ~e felt the solutions should now be presented to the two associations so they could return with their recommendations by July 1. Robert Cheney, 412 Cabrillo Road, President of the Santa Anita Village Association, spoke to the matter and felt that a true reflection of what the associations desire is in the solution to close the street. in response to an inquiry by Gary Darn, 950 Coronado, the Director of Public Works once again explained the various proposals. John R. Barnes, 22 Carta Road, felt the report was inadequate and that the residents did not agree that the closure of Hugo Reid would not be in the best interests of the residents as submitted in the report; and that more effort and time should be spent in examining the mechanical means of closing the street in a manner which would satisfy both the police and fire departments. He referred to the residential 5-16-72 - 5 - TOPICS -d-!tJ9~ A 19: 3069 nature of the area and the high property taxes derived therefrom and stated further in part that if the area is affected by traffic filtering through without proper protection the properties would suffer devaluation. He asked that Hugo Reid be .closed. " Jack Saelid, 821 Balboa Drive, commended Council and expressed appre- ciation on its position and assurance that action would be taken before the start of the Oak Tree racing season. William Gleason, 901 Monte Verde Drive, President of the Rancho Santa Anita Residents' Association, stated in part that he realized most of the residents favor closing Hugo Reid, however, it now appears that some of the residents have had second thoughts concerning I this particular solution; that the solution for one way traffic would offer one positive way but to close Hugo Reid entirely would compound the problem. He asked the city engineer to submit concrete reasons for his recommendations. He was advised that the supplemental report would be mailed to the two associations. Councilman Scott asked that a map suitable for projection in the council chamber be made available. He felt the problem concerns the city as a whole and all of its residents ~ould be interested in viewing the solutions. Councilman Scott submitted that he did not understand that any action would be taken at this meeting, however this does not mean he is not favorable in the matter, but would like to study it further in-terms of'the entire city. Mayor Hage agreed and indicated he was not prepared to take any action at this time as far as deciding on solutions and would like to see the matter held over unt il June 6. Councilman Arth stated in part that to submit more than 2 or 3 solu- tions at the most to the two associations would make it impossible to reach a unanimity of opinion. He was prepared to submit the solutions at this time in order to move ahead. Councilman Helms agreed and expressed concern about deciding upon a temporary solution because it will eventually be a year round pnoblem when Fashion Park becomes a reality. He favored presenting the proposals to the associations at this time, or at least those they most desired. \ However, in deference to the divided viewpoint of Council, Councilman Helms indicated he would reluctantly agree to a continuance. Councilman Scott then MOVED to continue the matter until June 6. Councilman Helms seconded the motion which was carried on roll call vote as follows: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Councilmen Helms, Scott, Councilman Arth Councilman Butterworth Hage William Gleason expressed disappointment at the delay as the associations were most anxious to resolve the problem; I The recommendation of the City Manager and the Director of Public Works was APPROVED on the following Minute Motion: MOTION by Councilman Scott, seconded by Councilman Helms and carried on roll call vote as follows that the City Council assign to the County of Los Angeles the sum of $45,000 of the TOPICS funds allocated to the City for fiscal years 1970-71 and 1971-72 toward the City's share of the ARROW HIGHWAY UNIFORM TRAFFIC CONTROL PROJECT and request the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors to accept this assignment. FURTHER, that the City Manager be instructed to submit certified copies of this action to the State Department of Public Works and the Los Angeles County Road Commissioner.

All ramifications of the project were outlined in this communication and it was noted therein that the same information was imparted to the property owners with the request that they cooperate by providing the required easements - that without their cooperation the collective efforts of the city and the utility companies along with the County Road Department would be defeated. One owner of the required property has refused to provide a rear lot line easement unless the existing transverse utility lines located on the north side of his property be placed underground. The considerable cost of such underg~ou~ding was submitt~d.' Dur{ng'~he ensuing discussion Council evinced an interest in knowing what other procedures are available for this project and staff was instructed to prepare same. Council received an extensive review of the problems leading to the need for an adjudication and the basis upon which the city's water rights will be determined. It was noted therein that proposed adju- dication is equitable inasmuch as it provides the City its fair share of the distribution of the available water within the Upper San Gabriel Valley River Basin.
