REPORT, CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 99-004 AND VESTING
TENTATIVE MAP 52745 FOR THE PROPOSED 31 LOOT
RESIDENTIAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT AT 701 W ST
- FOOTHILL BOULEVARD
SUMMARY
On January 25, 1999, Arcadia Oaks LLC, the developer, submitted applications for
a Vesting Tentative Map 52745 and C.U.P. 99-004 for development of the Anoakia
property located at the northwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Baldwin Avenue
into a 31 lot residential planned development .
On the basis of the initial study prepared by staff, it was determined that an
Environmental Impact Report (EIR) . was necessary and was prepared in
accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
The Planning Commission at a public hearing on November 9, 1999 reviewed the
Draft and Final EIR, as well as the specific project. On November 23, 1999, the
Planning Commission voted 3-0 to adopt with two members absent Resolutions
1599 and•1600 recommending approval of the proposed project and forwarding the
Planning Commission's comments on the Final EIR to the City Council for
consideration.
The City Council is the final decision making body for purposes of certifying the
Final Environmental Impact Report ("final EIR" or "FEIR") and approving the
Conditional Use Permit and Vesting Tentative Map.
To facilitate review of this project, the staff report is divided into six (6) Sections:

SECTION 1
'PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed project is located at the northwest corner of Baldwin Avenue and •
Foothill Boulevard on what is commonly known as the "Anoakia" property. The
subject of the Environmental Impact Report (EIR) is the removal of the existing
Anoakia mansion and accessory buildings and development of the 19.1 acre site as
a 31 lot residential planned development.
BACKGROUND
The house and most of the related accessory buildings were constructed in 1913 by
Anita Baldwin, daughter of"Lucky" Baldwin. She occupied the house until her d ath
in 1939. In 1941 the Los Angeles Regional Planning Commission approved these
of the property for a private girl's boarding school. The property was used for scl•�ool
purposes until 1989 when many of the buildings used for the school were cited as
unsafe as a result of severe damage from the Whittier earthquake. The Ano kia
residence along with some of the other smaller structures on the property were�not
deemed unsafe and are still being used. The mansion has been utilized -'s a
property management office since 1989 and the grounds and mansion are
frequently used for filming.
ZONING HISTORY
The Anoakia property along with the lots on Anoakia Lane and the adjacent lo s to
the west were originally located in the County of Los Angeles. This County is and
was annexed into the City in 1975 under Arcadia Municipal Code Section 9232 6.1, •
which classified all property as zone R-1 upon annexation. The General Plan
designation of the properties was single-family residential 0-2 dwelling units per
acre (this included the single-family lots as well as the Anoakia property).
In 1976 a zone change was initiated at the request of the property ow ers
surrounding the Anoakia property who were annexed into the City to rezone al the
annexed properties to R-O 30,000 which would be compatible with the properti s to
the north and west. In addition they requested that the properties be included i the
Rancho Santa Anita Property Owners Association.
At approximately the same time the property owner, Lowry McCaslin,-submitt d a
General Plan Change to double the residential density of the Anoakia property o 0-
4 du/ac which would have allowed for minimum lot sizes of 15,000 sq. ft. The
proposal was to build a private gated residential community and keep the mansion
for use as a clubhouse or private club. The Planning Commission recommended
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 1999
P lge 3
denial of this application and in May of 1976 Mr. McCaslin withdrew his application
for the general plan change.
In 1976, the entire area was rezoned R-O 30,000, and in 1978 the design overlay
was added to the area, placing all properties, including the Anoakia site into the
Rancho Santa Anita Property Owners Association.
In 1980 the City Council approved the rezoning of the Anoakia property from R-O &
D 30,000 to R-O & D 22,000.
C.U.P. AND VESTING TRACT MAP PROPOSAL
The proposed 31 lot residential planned development (see Figure 1 in this Section)
is permitted with an approved conditional use permit pursuant to Division 5, Part 7,
Sections 9275.1, et seq. of the Arcadia Municipal Code that establishes specific
regulations for residential planned developments. Section 9277.1.F provides that a
conditional use permit for a' residential planned development does not become
effective until it has been reviewed and approved by,the City Council.
The Vesting Tentative Map confers a vested right to proceed with development in
substantial compliance with the ordinances, policies and standards in effect at the
date the local agency has determined that the application is complete..
Surrounding Zoning
Properties to the north and west are developed with single-family dwellings, zoned
R-O & D 30,000 and located within the Rancho Santa Anita Property Owner's
Association.
Properties to the ,east across Baldwin Avenue are developed with single-family
dwellings and zoned R-O & D 22,000 and located within the Santa Anita Oaks
Homeowners Association.
Properties to the south across Foothill Boulevard are developed with single-family
dwellings and zoned R-1 10,000. (See attached Zoning Map [Figure 2] this Section
and photographs of the perimeter of the property [Exhibit C, page 74])
Site Description
The Anoakia mansion and outbuildings were constructed in 1913. The buildings
have been modified throughout the years to accommodate both the girl's boarding
school and then later a pre-school and day school.
The applicant is proposing to remove the existing mansion and outbuildings and
subdivide the parcel into 31 lots in order to construct new dwellings ranging in size
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 4
from 4,800+ square feet to 5,650+ square feet. The average. lot size in the
subdivision is 23,228 sq. ft.
The project will be developed with 28'-0" wide private streets, accessed by a gated
entry off of Baldwin Avenue. A secondary emergency access will be located on
Foothill Boulevard. There will be no access to the subdivision from Anoakia Lane.
The existing gate on Anoakia Lane will be removed and a new wall constructed' to
match the existing wall. Access to a.proposed City water well to be constructed on
the northwesterly portion of Lot 14 will be provided from Anoakia Lane.
Section 9277.13 of the Arcadia Municipal Code allows private streets subject to -..he
approval of the Fire Chief, Police Chief and Public Works Services Director. The
private streets will be 28'-0" in width with rolled curbs. All departments have
approved the design of,the street subject to the condition that there will be no on-
street parking.
The existing 7+ foot high wall that surrounds the property will remain and additional
landscaping will be planted on the exterior of the wall. There are sidewalks along
both Baldwin Avenue and Foothill Boulevard. The driveway on Baldwin Avenue will
be relocated further to the south to align with Arbolada Drive on the east side of
Baldwin Avenue.
There are 487 trees of 293 species located on the property (150 of these are oak
trees); 294 trees are proposed to be saved including 95 Coast Live Oaks and 20
Engelmann Oaks. The lots, dwellings and streets have been designed in an effort to
save as many trees as possible and there will be minimal change in the existing
grade to reduce the impact on the remaining trees.
Proposed Dwellings
As noted, the proposed dwellings will range in size from 4,800 sq. ft. to over 5,600
sq. ft. There are three basic floor plans. The architect has designed three different
building elevations for each floor plan (see attached plans - Exhibit H). All dwellings
will be two-story and none of the garages will be visible from the street. The layout
of each lot has been designed to provide for off-street parking thus eliminating the
need, for on-street parking.
On February 4, 1999, the City received the attached letter (Exhibit A, page 65) from
the Rancho Santa Anita Homeowners Association approving the design of the
homes.
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 5
Grading
The property slopes to the southeast and there is over a 40-foot variation in grade
from north to south. The tract has been designed to minimize on-site grading to
reduce the impact on the existing,trees and adjoining properties.
The grading -plan is subject to the Development Services Department review and
approval to ensure that grading is in substantial conformity with the tentative
grading plan and in compliance with the City's code requirements in relation to
building height per Section 9251.2.1 of the Arcadia Municipal Code. •
Well Site
The 1995-96 Water Master Plan identifies the need to increase water production to
serve the current demands and future growth demand in this area and includes the
construction of a 1,000 gallon per minute production well simultaneously with the
development of the property.
The Public Works Services Department has required that a well site be dedicated to
the City at the rear of Lot 14. Access to the well site will be from Anoakia Lane.
This well will be located within a soundproof building designed to be compatible with
the surrounding structures. The site will be enclosed by a 6'-0" decorative block
wall on the interior and a wall with gate to match the existing perimeter wall along
Anoakia Lane.
RESIDENTIAL PLANNED DEVELOPMENT (RPD) REGULATIONS
The Arcadia Municipal Code allows residential planned developments on sites
containing a minimum of three acres. The intent of residential planned
developments is to encourage well-planned. developments by providing the means
for greater creativity and flexibility in environmental design than is provided under
the strict application of the zoning ordinance and the subdivision regulations while
promoting and preserving the public interest, health, safety, welfare and property
values.
Since the proposal is for a Residential Planned Development, compliance with the
underlying zoning standards and subdivision regulations of the Arcadia Municipal
Code (i.e., front, side and rear yard setbacks, distance between buildings, private
yards, minimum lot characteristics, street standards, etc.) is not required. However,
in order to carry out the general purpose and intent of the Residential Planned
Development regulations, the project is subject to all the conditions set forth in the
conditional use permit and the vesting tentative map.
Anoakia - CC Report

Based upon the density requirements set forth in the RPD regulations, 32 dwellipg
units are allowed on this site. The code further allows structures to be two 2)
stories in height, not to exceed 35 feet.
Section 9277.14 requires that no building shall be constructed within 25'-0" of the
perimeter property lines; all dwellings maintain this minimum requirement viith
setbacks ranging from 25'-0" to 69'-0" from the perimeter property lines.

SECTION 2
PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ANALYSIS
•
Prior to taking action on a project, the City Council must certify the adequacy of the
Final EIR and certify that the decision-making body reviewed and considered the
information contained in the Final EIR.
Based on an initial study, it was determined that a focused Environmental Impact
Report was necessary. The EIR has been prepared to examine potentially
significant adverse environmental impacts that could result from the development of
the proposed project and further to identify mitigation measures that would either
avoid or substantially reduce those impacts. Section 3 includes a Summary of
Environmental Impacts and Mitigation Measures.
A Notice of Preparation was circulated on May 5, 1999. The Draft EIR was
available for review between July 21 to September 8. On August 24, 1999, a public
• hearing was held before the Planning Commission to allow the public an opportunity
to comment on the Draft EIR. It was noted in the staff report and at the public
hearing that the City Council would be the final decision making body for purposes
of certifying the Final EIR and approving both the conditional use permit and the
vesting tentative map.
On November 23, the Planning Commission reviewed the Final EIR and voted 3 to
0 with two members absent to adopt Resolution 1600 expressing the Commission's
comments to the City Council on the Final EIR.
PURPOSE OF AN EIR
Pursuant to Section 15121 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Guidelines and Section 21002.1 of the Public Resources Code, the EIR is an
information document that informs the decision-makers and the public of:
• Significant adverse environmental effects of a project;
•
• Possible ways to minimize the significant effects;
• Describes reasonable alternatives to the project; and
• Indicates the manner in which these significant effects can be mitigated or
avoided.
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 10
N ,
Section 21002.1[c] of the Government Code states that "If economic, social or other
conditions make it infeasible to mitigate one or more significant effects on he
environment of a project, the project may nonetheless be carried out or approve at
the discretion of a public agency if the project is otherwise permissible under
applicable laws and regulations."
Cotton/Beland Associates under contract With the City and under the City's directon
prepared the EIR. The City conducted its own independent evaluation and analysis
of the Draft EIR prior to releasing the document for public review.
Set forth below is a summary of the major environmental impacts of the project:
HISTORIC RESOURCES
The EIR identifies the following "unavoidable significant impact" that would result if
the project is approved as proposed:
• Demolition of the 15 buildings on the site which appear to be eligible for listing
on the National Register of Historic Places and the California Register of Historic
Resources under Criterion B (significant individuals) and Criterion C (design).
The 1996 General Plan notes that the "Anoakia School site, located at 701 est
Foothill Boulevard, is listed on the State Office of Historic Preservation's His oric
Property Data File as appearing eligible for listing on the National Registe of
Historic Places".
The General Plan further comments that "Preservation or adaptive reuse of his oric
structures and landmarks within the planning area is the preferred approch.
Where preservation or adaptive reuse is not possible, future development of ites
containing significant historical, cultural or architectural character should respect the
character and historical references of the original feature. In addition, where
appropriate, relocation of historic structures is encouraged if feasible and if Their .
preservation in place is not possible." . .
The applicant submitted a Preliminary Rehabilitation Estimate along with an
estimate for the movement of the top two floors of the structure to the Arbore urn.
The estimates were based on visual inspections of the property, review of struc ural
retrofit plans prepared by Coil & Welsh engineers and an initial project walk-thru
and scope of development process.
Based upon this evaluation, it was determined that it would cost in excess o l $5
million, excluding soft costs, site work, furniture, fixtures and equipment to r �troft
and rehabilitate the dwelling in accordance with the California Historical Bui'ding
Code. It was also estimated that it would cost between $500,000 and $850,000 to
move the building to the Arboretum. The City's environmental consultants reviewed
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 11999
Page 11
•
these figures and felt that these numbers were reasonably accurate. A copy of this
report is included in Appendix E of the Final EIR.
Mitigation measures have been identified. in the Mitigation Monitoring Plan (Section
3, page 17) relating to the removal of dwellings and structures on the site.
BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES
The EIR notes that implementation of the project will result in the removal of 35 oak
trees, specifically 31 Coast Live oaks and 4 Engelmann oaks. The project will also
potentially encroach upon the remaining 105 oak trees' protected zones. These
impacts are considered significant, but can be mitigated to a less than significant
level.
The Arcadia Municipal Code encourages the preservation and propagation of oak
trees for the benefit of the current and future residents of the City; however, the
code does not prohibit the removal of oaks trees. The City does allow removal of
oak trees through the Oak Tree Removal permit or as part of a development permit.
One of the proposed mitigation measures is that the replacement of the 35 oaks
shall be at a ratio of 3 Engelmann oak replacement trees for every removed
Engelmann oak and replacement of 2 oak trees for every other type of oak tree
removed from the property. A minimum of 70 trees shall be planted and no less
than 12 of these shall be Engelmann Oaks, and if available, up to 35 replacement
trees shall be Engelmann oaks. The replacement oaks shall be a minimum of 60"
boxed stock. If the availability of 60" boxed is limited, with the approval of the City,
smaller stock can be used, but not less than 36" box.
The developer shall be responsible for replacement of any oak tree (new or
existing) that dies during the period of time that construction by the developer is
taking place on the property. In addition the Covenants, Conditions . and
Restrictions (CCRs) shall include covenants and disclosure statements that the
newly formed homeowner's association is responsible for replacement of any oak
trees located within the common area and that private property owners are
responsible for compliance with the City of Arcadia oak tree regulations.
Transplanting Trees
The discussion of transplanting oak trees was originally addressed in the Draft EIR.
In response to testimony received at the hearing on the Draft EIR and concern that
transplanting oaks might not be effective, this option was eliminated from the
mitigation measures set forth in the Final EIR.
Based on staffs experience, transplanting oaks can be successfully accomplished
under certain circumstances. The City Council may wish to consider allowing trees
to be transplanted based on the same mitigation monitoring requirement set forth in
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 1999
•Page 12
Z l
the Mitigation Monitoring Plan. Attached is Exhibit B, page 71) which discuss s
transplanting of oaks.
OTHER IMPACTS
The EIR also identifies the following "potentially significant impacts" that can be
mitigated to a less than significant level:
• Short-term noise impacts from site preparation and construction;
• Computed peak ground acceleration is higher than the standard envelope of he
1997 Uniform Building Code; and
• Proximity of project site to the official delineated liquefaction zone.
Less than significant impacts are identified on page vii of the EIR.
ALTERNATIVES
The CEQA guidelines require that a range of alternatives be addressed governed
by the "rule of reason". Not every conceivable alternative needs to be addressed
nor do infeasible alternatives need to be considered.
The Guidelines state that the discussion of alternatives must focus on alternatives
capable of either eliminating any significant environmental effects of the project or
reducing them to a less than significant level while achieving major project
objectives. As noted above, the most significant unavoidable impact is on historic
resources due to demolition of the structures on the site. The following Alternatives
have been identified on page 38 of the Final EIR.
• Alternative 1: No project (mandatory CEQA alternative)
• Alternative 2: Preservation Reuse of the Baldwin Residence - this alternative
considers rehabilitating the existing residence on the site and subdividing the
parcel to provide approximately 27 half-acre, residential lots for subsequent
development of single-family homes. The Anoakia mansion would be use as
either a residence or center for the residents of the project.
• Alternative 3: Reuse of the Baldwin Residence and Other Structures - this
considers preservation of the residence and related structures and ground for
use as a museum, community center, park or resident summer camp When
school is not in session.
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 13
• Alternative 4: Re-establishment of a Private School - all the structures would be
required to be repaired and upgraded to comply with the City and State seismic
standards.
Alternatives 3 and 4 would require a Conditional Use Permit. In addition,
supplemental environmental review may be required for either project depending on
the use and any potential adverse environmental impacts that have not been
addressed in this EIR.
MITIGATION MEASURES
Mitigation measures have been identified in the Mitigation Monitoring Program
(Section 3, page 17).
FINAL EIR (FEIR)
Prior to taking any action on the project, the City Council must certify that the Final
EIR:
• has been completed in compliance with the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA);
• has been reviewed and considered by the City Council; and
• represents the City's independent judgment and analysis.
Responses to Comments on the Draft EIR are included in Section 7, page 47 of the
Final EIR.
The CEQA process requires only a once-around review process. Public review is
required only at the draft EIR stage. The final EIR can be submitted directly to the.
decision-making body of an agency for consideration.
Section 15089 of the CEQA guidelines states:
The Lead Agency (City of Arcadia) shall prepare a final EIR before approving
the project.
Lead Agencies may provide an opportunity for review of the final EIR by the
public or by commenting agencies before approving the project. The review
of a final EIR should focus on the responses to comments on the draft EIR.
The City's environmental consultant has prepared an Errata supplement dated
November 29, 1999 (Exhibit D, page :75) which is part of the Final EIR. As
explained in Exhibit E, the Errata has been prepared to include a mitigation
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7,, 1999
Page 14
measure that was inadvertently omitted from the Executive Summary Table and to
replace the more general language in certain mitigation measures listed in the Fi ial
EIR with more specific language. This will ensure more effective implementatior of
the mitigation measures. No additional or new information or requirements has
been included in the Errata.
STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS
After considering the Final EIR in conjunction with making findings, the City must
not approve the project if the project will have a significant effect on the environment
after imposition of feasible mitigation or alternatives unless the City finds that the
benefits of a proposed project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environment
effects. If the City Council determines that the project should be approved, the City
is required. by CEQA to prepare a Statement of Overriding Considerations
explaining why the City is willing to accept each significant effect. This allows the
decision-maker to balance the benefits of a proposed project against the
unavoidable environmental risks in determining whether to approve the project. The
statement setting forth the overriding considerations, supporting-the City's deci ion
must be based on substantial evidence in the Final EIR or elsewhere in the recokd.
Attached for the City Council's review and consideration is Findings of Fact and a
Statement of Overriding Considerations prepared by the City's consultants in
concert with City staff. (Exhibit E, page 78)
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 15
SECTION 3
MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM
CEQA requires that for each significant impact identified in the EIR, the EIR must
discuss feasible measures to avoid or substantially reduce the project's significant
environmental effect.
A lead agency must adopt a Mitigation Monitoring Program for mitigation measures
that are adopted or made conditions of project approval to mitigate significant
effects. It is the responsibility of the lead agency to ensure that the implementation
measures occur in accordance with the Mitigation Monitoring Program.
The objectives of environmental monitoring are:
• To insure implementation of mitigation measures during project implementation.
• To provide feedback to agency staff and decision-makers about the
effectiveness of their actions.
• To identify the need for enforcement action before irreversible environmental
damage occurs.
The Mitigation Monitoring Program identifies who will be responsible for monitoring
the progress of mitigation measures adopted by the City, when and how often the
monitoring shall be done and a discussion of monitoring and reporting procedures.
The City Council must adopt a Mitigation Monitoring Program if it approves the
project.
The Mitigation Monitoring Program is attached to this Section.

ADDRESS: c/o Hover Development Company
3501 Jamboree Boulevard
Newport Beach, CA 92660
PROJECT LOCATION: Northwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Baldwin Avenue
PROJECT APPROVAL DATE:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:The proposed subdivision will consist of 31 residential lots on a 19.1-
acre site with necessary streets and utilities. Construction of 31 homes will be preceded by the
demolition of existing structures, removal of a number of existing mature trees including oaks,
conversion of an existing drainage channel to covered box drain on a portion of the channel, and
addition of a pumping well at the northeast corner of the property.
MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM: A Final EIR for the proposed project requires
certain mitigation measures to reduce significant impacts to less-than-significant levels. Pursuant
to the California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA) Section 21081.6, this mitigation monitoring
program has been prepared to ensure implementation of those measures.
It may be necessary and appropriate to modify the specifics of the mitigation measures in order to
meet the intent of the City to minimize or eliminate significant environmental effects as documented
in the EIR,the Statement of Findings and Overriding Considerations,and the Mitigation Monitoring
Program. These changes may be required because of changes to the proposed project, changes in
the environment around the project, or other changes which make the mitigation measures include
in the EIR infeasible, inappropriate to be implemented, or unnecessary to mitigate the significant
environmental effects of the project.
Modifications to the mitigation measures may be made by the Development Services Directgr.
subject to one of the following findings, documented by evidence included in the record. Findings
and related documentation supporting the findings involving modifications to mitigation measures
shall be maintained in the project file with the Mitigation Monitoring Program and made available
to the public on request: •
1.The mitigation measure included in the EIR and the Mitigation Monitoring Program are no
longer required because the significant environmental impact identified in the E1R has been
found as a result of changes in the project,changes in conditions of the environment,or other

The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the Final EIR, the conditio aI
use permit and the vesting tentative map on November 9, 1999. Based on he
- evidence presented at this meeting and visits to the Anoakia property, he
Commission at its November 23, 1999 meeting voted 3 to 0 with two members
absent to adopt the attached Resolutions 1599 and 1600 as follows:
Resolution 1599 — A resolution of the Planning Commission of the City of

RESOLUTION 1.599
A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF ARCADIA, CALIFORNIA, RECOMMENDING
APPROVAL OF CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 99-004. AND
VESTING TENTATIVE MAP 52745 FOR THE PROPERTY
LOCATED AT 701 WEST FOOTHILL BOULEVARD, MORE
COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE ANOAKIA PROPERTY.
WHEREAS, on January 25, 1999, the Keith Companies on behalf of Arcadia
Oaks LLC filed applications for development of the Anoakia property into a 31 lot
residential planned development, Community Development Division Cases No. C.U.P.
99-004 and Vesting Tentative Map 52745 located at 701 West Foothill Boulevard, the
northwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Baldwin Avenue, more particularly described
as:
That portion of Rancho Santa Anita, and of Lot 3 of Tract 948, in the City of
Arcadia, as shown on Map recorded in Book 17, Page 21 of Maps, in the office of
the Los Angeles County Recorder, State of California, described as follows:
Beginning at the point of intersection of the westerly right of way line of
Baldwin Avenue, said line .being 40' west of the centerline of Baldwin
Avenue and the north right-of-way line of Foothill Boulevard, said line
being 40' north of the centerline of Foothill Boulevard, the "Point of
Beginning," thence north 02° 59' 40" east 770.97 feet, thence south 88°
41' 00" west 1107.55 feet; thence south 01° 18' 30" east 771.13 feet,
thence north 88° 39' 52" east 1049.55 feet, to the point of beginning.
WHEREAS, a public hearing was held on November 9, 1999 at which time all
interested persons were given full opportunity to be heard and to present evidence;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE, PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF
ARCADIA HEREBY RESOLVES AS FOLLOWS:
Section 1. That the factual data submitted by the Community Development
Division in the attached report is true and correct.
Section 2. In regards to the Conditional Use Permit, this Commission finds:
1. That the purpose of residential planned developments is to encourage well-
planned developments by providing the means for greater creativity and flexibility in
environmental design than is provided under the strict application of the zoning
ordinance and the subdivision regulations while promoting and preserving the public
interest, health, safety, welfare and property values. It is the consensus of the Planning
Commission that the proposed project is well-designed for this .site, that the homes
complement other dwellings in the neighborhood and that the applicant has made
considerable effort to design a project which has minimal impact on the surrounding
neighborhoods.
-1- . Anoakia - CC.Report
December 7, 1999
Page 30
2. That the proposed 31 lot residential planned development is permitted with
an approved conditional use permit pursuant to Division 5, Part 7, Sections 9275.1, et
seq. of the Arcadia Municipal Code which establishes specific regulations for residential
planned developments. The Vesting Tentative Map confers a vested right to proceed
with development in substantial compliance,with the ordinances, policies and standards
in effect at the date the local agency has determined that the application is complete.
3. That the site contains 19.1 acres and is adequate in size to accommodat the
31 lot residential planned development. The lots, dwellings and streets have been
designed in an effort to save as many trees as possible and there will be minimal
change in the existing grade to reduce the impact on the remaining trees and the
surrounding properties.
4. That the site abuts Baldwin Avenue and Foothill Boulevard which are both
adequate in width and pavement type to carry the traffic generated by the proposed
use. The project will be developed with private streets with a gated entry off of Baldwin
Avenue and an emergency access on Foothill Boulevard. There will be no access to
the subdivision on Anoakia Lane. The existing gate on Anoakia Lane will be rerroved
and a new wall constructed to match the existing wall.
5. That the subject site is designated as single-family residential 0-2 du/ac on
the General Plan. The existing R-0 & D 22,000 zoning is consistent with] this
designation and the average lot size in the subdivision is 23,228 sq. ft. Granting of this
Conditional Use Permit will not adversely affect the comprehensive General Plan.
Subject to the conditions set forth in this Resolution, with the exception of historic
preservation, the use applied for will not have a substantial adverse impact on the
environment.
6. That based on the Planning Commission's observations of the premises
including the structures, the consensus of the Commission is that the main d elling
located on the premises has seriously deteriorated during the past few years. The
house is primarily a shell with most of the interior elements gone with the exception of
certain fireplaces, bookcases and other details that are primarily an integral part of the
building. Based on information submitted for the Final Environmental Impact Report
("FEIR"), the expense for rehabilitation would be excessive, costing in excess of five
million dollars ($5,000,000), excluding soft costs, site work, furniture, fixtures and
equipment to retrofit and rehabilitate the dwelling in accordance with the California
Historical Building Code. (See Appendix E in the FEIR).
Section 3. In regards to the Vesting Tentative Map, the Commission makes the
following findings:
-2-
Anoakia - CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 31
1. That the project and the provisions for its design and improvements are
consistent with the Arcadia General Plan and that the discharge of sewage from the
project into the public sewer system will not violate any requirements prescribed by the
California Regional Water Quality Control Board for this region.
2. That the evaluations of the environmental impacts as set.forth in the FEIR are
appropriate; that this project will not have a significant effect on the environment; that
when considering the record as a whole, there is no evidence that this project will have
any potential for adverse effect on wildlife resources or the habitat upon which the
. wildlife depends; and, therefore, the Commission recommends approval and filing of a
Notice of Determination.
3. That it is reasonable and appropriate to authorize and direct the Development
Services Department to approve and execute, if necessary, a subdivision agreement for
this project.
Section 4. That for the foregoing reasons the Planning Commission recommends
to the City Council approval of Conditional Use Permit 99-004 and Vesting Tentative
Map 52745 for a 31 lot residential planned development based upon plans submitted by
the Applicant to the City as of date of this Resolution, subject to the Conditions of
Approval set forth in attached Exhibit A.

vote:
AYES: Commissioners Huang, Murphy, Sleeter, Kalemkiarian
NOES: Commissioner Bruckner '

LETTER FROM
RANCHO SANTA ANITA
ARB

•
February 4, 1999
Tom Hover
Dear Tom,
The purpose of this letter is to document and summarize the Architectural Review Board (ARB)
history of deliberations and recommendations concerning the development of the Anoakia Estats
property and to inform you of the current status of your application.
The initial presentation to the ARB occurred on 27 April 1998. At that point, the project was i
Due Diligence Phase. The developers wanted to give an overview to bring the ARB on board the
program and to provide a preliminary overview of the project. At that point the plan was for
approximately 18 oak trees to be relocated or replaced. The existing structures, although of
historical significance, will be removed since the cost of updating them to current code and safety
standards would be prohibitive. Members of the ARB toured the property on 2 May 1998 and the
deterioration of the structures was obvious.
The project continued in the planning phase and on October 28, a presentation was made to the
Association board where much more architectural detail was presented. A follow-up meeting f
the ARB was held on 2 November. The purpose of this meeting was to review the plans
submitted, discuss how to proceed and what requests to be made to the developer, and discuss the
impact on the tree preservation ordinance. The ARB was concerned with the gated communit
aspect, the extensive tree removal, and the impact on traffic. There was also concern about
insufficient diversity in home architecture. Only three basic home designs were submitted of
Monterrey or Mission style and the ARB felt a more diverse and eclectic mis of styles would be
more in keeping with the existing neighborhood. The ARB was also concerned about the project
being screened from view from the adjoining streets and property. On 4 November, the ARB met
with the city planners to discuss their concerns.
On 19 November, the ARB met with the developers to hear their response to our concerns.
Members of the planning department also attended: At this meeting much more architectural
detail was presented. The architectural theme was selected to continue the theme of the original
Anoakia property. Although there are three basic floor plans, there is also a mix of three
architectural styles giving 9 basic home fronts: The developers would provide a mix of materials
and architectural facings to provide additional diversity. The existing wall would be preserved
and various other historical features (e.g. gatehouse and fountain) would be preserved. A tre
plan will incorporate screening from adjoining properties to soften the "development" effect.
Street lights will follow the design of the current Rancho Santa Anita lights. Many of the ARB •
concerns were answered satisfactorily at this meeting.
On 24 November, the ARB met with the Association board and discussed their findings. It was
proposed that a newsletter be presented to apprise the members of the ongoing developments. It
Anoakia - CC Report .
December 7, 999
EXHIBIT A Page 65
was also proposed that an open meeting be held to hear comments of the Association members.
The newsletter was published and the open meeting was held on 1 Feb 1999. This meeting was
attended by representatives of the developer, the Association, the ARB, members of the planning
commission, members of the neighborhood and members of the adjoining Homeowners
Association. Various comments were received, both favorable and unfavorable. One remaining
concern was insuring that the proposed tree preservation plan be maintained both during
construction and after the new homes are occupied.
The ARB is now comfortable with the planned architecture and appreciate the work you have
done to meet our various concerns. We think your tree preservation plan is a positive one. The
only remaining issue is insuring that no further impact is made to the remaining trees. It is desired
that an independent arborist be employed to provide oversight of the tree preservation plan during
development and construction. The planning department has indicated that they can require this
as part of their approval process. The Association and ARB also have concerns as to the tree
preservation after the homes have been occupied. We feel the new owners will likely want to
install swimming pools. If not provided for in development, this will result in a multitude of
applications to remove some of the remaining trees to accommodate the pools. Therefore, we
would like for the positioning of the homes on the lots to allow for swimming pools without
further impacting the remaining trees and for candidate pool sites to be indicated on the plot
plans.
We are pleased with your continuing cooperation and understanding of our responsibilities and
concerns. We look forward to seeing this project move into its next phase.

This document contains informal minutes of the Open Meeting sponsored by the Association at
the Arcadia City Council Chambers on 1 February 1999.
The meeting started on time at 6:30 pm. The meeting was chaired my Michael Downer, President
of the Association. The purpose of the meeting was to provide an open forum to inform
Association members of the planned development of the Anoakia property and to provide for
comments from Association members and other concerned parties.
Mr. Downer give a brief introduction of the purpose of the meeting and an overview of the
Anoakia development. He then introduced Tom Hover who represented the developers. Mr.
Hover described the project and the proposed architecture. He also introduced the architect of
the project. The meeting was then opened to a question and answer format.
Meyer Piet (757 Anoakia Lane) opened with favorable comments. He applauded that Anoakia
Lane will remain isolated and that the wall will be retained. He questioned that the streets are
merely 28 feet wide compared with the normal 40-foot width. He opposed the gating concept
and preferred a second entrance on Baldwin for emergencies. He would like the building height
to be a maximum of 25 feet.
Arnold Cruise (645 W Foothill) thought the lots were too small. He also objected to the single
entrance on Baldwin, for both traffic and emergency concerns. He would like a frontage road
similar to those existing on Foothill and Baldwin.
Randy Stokes (1040 Hampton Road) had no objections to the concept but was concerned with
the enforcement of the tree preservation plan during construction. He recommended the concept
of an independent arborist as a monitor during construction.
Mike Mobahill (sp?) who resides on Arbolata was also concerned with the lot size and queried
whether we had surveyed existing neighborhood properties to establish a standard.
Donna Butler of the Planning Department explained that this development fell under the
regulations governing Planned Residential Development (PRD) which is different from the
regulations for single dwellings or for sub-divisions. There would be an Environmental Impact
Report (EIR) required which would cover the areas of trees, traffic, and historicaUcultural
elements. There would be a public hearing on the EIR. The city would be responsible for
insuring that the tree preservation plan be complied with.
The president of the neighboring Homeowners Association was concerned with the preservation
of various historical elements.
The utilization of the existing wall, fountain, and gates was discussed by the dee-toper. Also,
Mark McCaslin, who represented,the historical owners, stated that any historical items not used
on the site have been requested by the city or the arboretum.
There being no further questions, the meeting was adjourned around 7:30 pm. Att Attendees-th eport

toured the displays of architectural renderings and samples of materials as well as engaged in

project's HTC.
• All pruning shall be authorized and performed under the discretion of the HTC and
will conform to the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA) standards. There
will be no flush cutting allowed.
• The box sizes will be the minimum size specified by the HTC. Any changes to this
box size will need to be authorized by The HTC.
• All side and bottom digging of the boxes will be done by hand. If rock is encoun-
tered, alternate methods can be considered.
• All roots over 1/2" diameter and broken roots will be cut back with a sharp saw to a
solid portion of the root.
• All roots of adjacent plant materials shall be cut off a right angles with a sharp saw,
if they are encountered. If the boxing area along the side of the root ball needs to be
enlarged, this will be done by hand.No backhoe work will be allowed where roots
of adjacent trees can be damaged.
• No compaction of soil under adjacent trees is allowed. This includes the stock
piling of soil and other materials.If soil stock piling is necessary under adjacent
saved trees, sheet of 1" plywood shall be placed on the ground below the soil.
• No top soil or leaf litter shall be removed from the box. The top of the box shall be
at least 6" above the existing soil level. Only invasive weeds shall be removed from
beneath the trees. Prune out all shrubs, if needed; do not pull out shrubs.
• Once the tree is boxed, a 2" layer of mulch will be applied over the root ball in
addition to the existing litter to a maximum of 3" deep. The mulch shall consist of

Biological Resources •
redwood compost or pest/disease-free chippings, or from the surrounding mulch
from the removed trees, etc. „.
• Pruning paints, tree sealants, etc. shall not be used on any cut root or branch.'If`a.
fungicide or pesticide is necessary, the HTC shall review such recommendations.
• All boxes shall have the following information taken and processed prior to
removal procedures. All of this data shall be placed on a 3"x 5" laminated card and •
affixed to the north side of the tree box.
A. Root depth and direction/location of major roots per box side;
B. Size of roots cut by exposure (i.e. North/South/East/West sides);
C. Soil type and location in box (i.e. rock, loam, clay, etc.);
D. Size and number of cut roots on the bottom of the box;
E. The north side of the tree will be labeled on the box for orientation to the •
compass.
• All needed cabling shall be done prior to moving the tree. The cabling shall
conform to the ISA standards and will require authorization by the HTC, including
specific materials to be used. Temporary cabling will be accepted if the tree has to
be immediately moved.
• The trees shall be watered a minimum of once per week during the winternonths,
twice per week during the summer months or as needed. The soil will be probed
both before and after watering to insure percolation throughout the root ball.
• 6" high basins will be installed within the boxes. The basins shall be divided up in
to separate compartments. The soil that is used for the basins shall not come from
the root ball; it shall be made from the loose soil from the digging box. The basin
•
shall be constructed so that standing water does not contact the base of the tree.
- The basins will be filled up at least three times for each watering. The watering
shall saturate the root ball of the tree. This shall be verified by soil probing.
• All exposed bark that was previously shaded by the canopy of other trees or foliage
shall have shade cloth (at least 60% shade factor) installed over the bark to protect
it from the sun. This will not be installed directly on to the bark, but will be about
6" away.
•' If recommended by a California licensed Pest Control Advisor (PCA), a fungicide
- . drench may be applied.
• Any insect problem, especially bark beetle or wood boring beetle attacks, shall be
treated within 24 hours of observation with an approved pesticide under the
direction of PCA.
• Secure the tree with necessary guy wires until it is ready for moving. Attachment of
the guy wires shall not injure the tree or cause future problems.
• Provide all necessary protection for limbs and trunk for moving. The protection
shall consist of material that is sufficient to prevent any damage including coin-
.
pression of bark or abrasion of all limbs and trunks.
• All boxed trees shall be maintained in a healthy state during the boxing operation at
no additional cost. .

• The contractor shall include 90 days of maintenance once the trees are placed in the
holding area. The contractor shall provide irrigation bubblers or drip systems to
each tree.
Planting specifications:
• The newly planed boxed trees shall be planted high, as much as 1" above the new
adjacent grade. .
•
• Amending the back fill soil with wood shavings, oak Leaf-Mold, etc., is not
recommended when existing soil is high in natural organic matter with a sandy
loam texture.
• In regards to the need for planting amendments(polymers should be considered)
and drainage systems, the HTC shall make recommendations based on soil tests of
this project and approved by the governing authorities.
• Maintenance practices with regards to frequency of watering, fertilization, etc.,
must be fine-tuned to the trees' environment as to soil type and seasonal weather
conditions. The following are general maintenance recommendations that may be
amended to suit the general environmental conditions of this project:
A. Fill the earth watering basins once weekly during cooler\weather and twice
weekly during warmer weather. A soil prove should be used periodically to
check root ball moisture content, soil and root conditions;
B. Repeat the root ball drench every six months,preferably in March/April and in
October/November;
C. A minimum 1-year maintenance program, as outlined above for planted trees,
with monthly monitoring and watering for second year establishment is •
recommended.
Oak Tree Protected Zone Encroachment
1. The following mitigation techniques shall be observed on-site by the HTC,paid for by
the applicant. The HTC shall be notified 48 hours prior to any work being done to the
trees. The following measures should ensure that the remaining 110 oak trees on the site
would remain as valuable assets to the community:
•
Tree Protection:
A.Prior to issuance of a demolition permit, oak trees adjacent to proposed grading and
demolition shall be fenced at their driplines with protective fencing. Fencing will
be installed to prevent equipment storage, debris drop, etc., from occurring within
the Protected Zones during demolition and construction. This fence shall remain
•
during all phases of construction and shall not be moved or removed without
knowledge of the HTC and approved by the City of Arcadia Planning Division
(CAPD).
B.Any brush clearance within the dripline shall be completed by handwork only.

FINDINGS OF FACT AND STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS
REGARDING SIGNIFICANT EFFECT UNDER PROVISION OF CALIFORNIA
PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE SECTION 21081 AND CALIFORNIA CODE OF
REGULATION SECTIONS 15091 AND 15093
•
ANOAKIA RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
The following Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations are made relevant t•
the conclusion of the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR)#99051017 for the Anoakia
Residential Development Project(the Project).The project applicant, Arcadia Oaks,LLC, has
proposed to subdivide a 19.1-acre parcel and construct 31 residential units within the City of
Arcadia. Existing structures on the parcel would be demolished and a number of existing matur
trees, including oaks, would be removed.Additionally, a portion of an existing drainage channel
would be converted to a covered box drain on a portion of the channel. A City-ownedpumping
well would be added at the northwest corner of the property. The well would be screened with a
wall and landscaping.
These Findings of Fact and Statement of Overriding Considerations have been prepared pursuant
to Section 21081 of the California Public Resources Code and Sections 15091 and 15093 of Title
14.of the California Code of Regulations. The City of Arcadia must make findings prior to
approval of a project for which an EIR has been completed identifying significant effect of the
project. These findings must be supported by evidence in the record. For each significant effect,
one or more of the following findings must be made:
Finding 1: Changes or alterations have been required, or incorporated into,the project to
mitigate or avoid significant effects on the environment.
Finding 2: Those changes or alterations are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another
public agency and have been,or can and should be, adopted by that other agency.
Finding 3: Specific economic, legal, social,technological or other considerations, including the
provision of employment opportunities for highly trained workers,make infeasible the mitigatioi
measures or alternatives identified in the environmental impact report.
FINDINGS OF FACT
The following findings of fact are made with regard to each of the significant environmental
effects identified and analyzed in the FEIR supported by the facts in the record as summarized
below.

EXHIBIT E
I. SIGNIFICANT EFFECTS FOUND TO BE MITIGATED TO A LESS THAN
SIGNIFICANT LEVEL
1. Biological Resources
Significant Effects
Implementation of the project will result in the removal 35 oak trees, specifically 31 Coast Live
oaks and 4 Engelmann oaks. The project will also potentially encroach upon the remaining 105
oak trees' protected zones.
Findings
Changes or alterations have been required for,or incorporated into, the project that avoid or
substantially lessen the potential environmental effect identified in the FEIR.
Facts in Support of the Findings
The FEIR and Mitigation Monitoring Plan include the following 3 measures to reduce these
impacts:
Prior to issuance of a demolition permit, the Horticultural Tree Consultant (HTC)shall submit a
plan showing the proposed location of new trees on the project site and plan for protecting the
remaining trees which the HTC has determined may be encroached upon during construction. If
all trees cannot be located on-site, remaining trees shall he planted at the Applicant's expense in
dedicated open space location(s)approved by the City within six months from issuance of a
grading permit. The HTC shall be present on-site during all replacement to ensure proper
planting, and during construction to ensure protection of remaining oak trees on-site.
Replacement
1. Replacement of the 35 oak trees shall be at a ratio of 3 Engelmann oak replacement trees
for every removed Engelmann oak tree and of 2 oak trees other than Engelmann oaks for
every removed oak tree as determined by the HTC and the City to ensure long term
survival. A minimum of 70 oak trees shall be planted, and no less than 12 of these
replacement oak trees shall be Engelmann oaks and if available, up to 35 replacement
trees shall he Engelmann oaks. The replacement trees shall be 60 inch boxed stock If the
availability of 60 inch boxed is limited, with the approval of the HTC and the City,
smaller stock can he used, However, stock may not be less than 36 inches. The
replacement trees can be located on site or off site-in an area of dedicated open space,
such as a public park or at other such locations deemed appropriate by the City of
Arcadia. All replacement trees shall be tagged for identification purposes. The developer
Page 2

'--" b2b .DU4 W4U2 P.04/25
shall replace any oak tree (new or existing) that dies during the period of time that
construction by the developer is taking place on the property.
The final plans shall contain the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CCRs) that
include covenants and disclosure statements that the Homeowner's Association is
responsible for replacement of any oak trees located within the common area and that
private property owners are responsible for compliance with the City of Arcadia oak tree
regulations as set forth in Section 9700 et seq. of the Arcadia Municipal Code and .
successor ordinances. Oak trees that dies from natural causes shall be subject to
removal per City's oak tree regulations in Section 9700 et seq. of the Arcadia Municipal
Code and any successor ordinances.
Oak Tree Protected Zone Encroachment
2. The following mitigation techniques shall be observed on-sire by the HTC,paid for by the
Applicant. The HTC shall be notified 48 hours prior to any work being done to the trees.
The following measures should ensure that the remaining 105 oak trees on the site will
remain as valuable assets to the community:
Tree Protection:
A. Prior to.issuance of a demolition permit, oak trees adjacent to proposed grading
and demolition shall be fenced at their driplines with protective fencing. Fencing
will be installed to prevent equipment storage, debris drop, etc.,from occurring
within the Protected Zones during demolition and construction. This fence shall
remain during all phases of construction and shall not be moved or removed
without knowledge of the RTC and approved by the City ofArcadia Planning
Division (CAPD).
B. Any brush clearance within the dripline shall be completed by handwork only.
Dead Wood Removal and/or Pruning
A. Dead wood removal is the removal of dead wood from within the tree. Structural
pruning is for clearance and safety pruning is for hazardous limbs 3"in diameter
and larger. All pruning shall be completed by a qualified Arbori.st only if
approved by the CAPD and under the observation of the HTC.
B. Pruning cuts shall not be made flush with the trunk.
C. Climbing gaffs shall not be used by any tree climber (except to reach an injured
climber or when removing a tree).
Watering&Fertilization (only if needed)
A. Native oaks are in a dormant stale during the summer months and do not require
regular or constant watering (or fertilizing). Watering is normally contemplated
only following long periods of extreme drought.
B. Fertilization of these native oak trees may be detrimental in general drought
Page 3
Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 80
•
conditions. The addition of fertilizer into a maintenance program may promote
temporary growth flushes at a time when the tree would normally he maintaining
regular growth or to even reduce the number of green leaves present. The greater
amounts of foliage the tree has. the higher the watering requirements.
Disease and Pests (only if needed)
A. During all phases of construction the health of the trees shall be monitored for
disease signs•and symptoms. These problems, if they arise, shall be remedied.
B. If bees are encountered in any on-site oak tree and they become a problem, they
shall be removed by a professional Beekeeper.
•
Grading within the.Protected Zones
A. Initially, all grading within the Protected Zone shall be done by hand, under the
observation the HTC. If any roots (I"diameter and larger) are encountered, they
shall be saved/bridged(except in a cut slope situation) and covered with a
minimum 4"layer of sand. All pruned roots shall consist of clean-cut surfaces at
a 90 degree angle and shall he sealed as required by the CAPD.
Other Considerations
A. Do not nail grade stakes or anything else to any native oak tree. Do not apply
chemical herbicides within the landscape areas of the Protected Zone of any
native oak tree. .
. B. The dust accumulation on the tree from nearby construction shall be hosed off
periodically during the construction period as recommended by the HTC.
C. Any City approved work, including branch removals, within the Protected Zones
of the oak trees shall be under the observation of the HTC. All construction
activities shall follow the established preservation program. The purpose of the
program is to control the impacts to each tree and to protect them from any
unnecessary and unscheduled damage.
D. Consideration of disease and pest control will play a major role in such a
program and for the most part will be long range. The best protection against any
problem is to build up the tree's natural defenses and to avoid wounding
whenever possible. These mitigation measures will encourage vigorous growth
within the trees, so that their compartmentalization can effectively control
disease.
3. To ensure that no nests of native birds will be affected by construction activity the
Applicant shall engage services of a qualified biological monitor to monitor construction
on the site if the project construction takes place during the nesting season, which
typically extends from March to late July.
Implementation of these measures will reduce impacts to biological resources to a less-than-
significant level.

2. Short-term Construction Noise
Significant Effects
Noise generated by construction activities will have adverse, but temporary, impacts. The
residential uses most sensitive to noise are located adjacent to the project site on the west, and
across the street on the north and east.
Site Preparation The principal noise source during the site preparation period will be from
heavy equipment used for site grading. The project site is relatively small at less than 20 acres,
and smaller equipment is expected to be used for this project. This may include a motor grader,
one or two loaders, and trucks. During the peak of grading activity, these pieces of heavy
equipment would be expected to be operating simultaneously for grading and loading, a water
truck would be operating to minimize dust, and two trucks could be loading or staged waiting for
loading at any one time within the site.
This equipment could result in intermittent peak noise levels of 80 to 85 dB(A) at nearby
residential uses when operating directly opposite these uses in grading the site. Most of the time,
construction noise levels would be expected to peak below 75 dB(A) at nearby residences.
Average levels would be expected to continue to be dominated by the freeway noise at all
locations within 500 feet of Route 210 (Foothill) Freeway,except during short periods when
grading will be going on directly opposite residences. No evening or night grading activity
would be permitted by the City's noise ordinance requirements.
On-site Construction Noise. During the period when the buildings are being constructed,noise
from heavy equipment will occur on the site with varying frequency and intensity for the
construction period after site preparation_
At a distance of 50 feet from the noise source,construction equipment noise levels(principally
from engine exhaust and engine noise) range from 75-95 dB(A) for tractors, up to 95 dB(A) for
construction trucks, and up to 88 dB(A) for concrete mixers, and they vary as equipment is used
for varying lengths of time throughout the construction period. During construction,peak noise
levels at 50 feet would range from 75 to 90 dB(A), with occasional higher peaks.
Noise levels fall substantially with increasing distance from the noise source, both as a result of
spherical spreading of sound energy and as a result of absorption of sound energy by the air.
Spherical spreading of sound waves reduces the noise of a point source by six decibels for each
doubling of distance from the noise source. Absorption by the atmosphere typically accounts for
a loss of one decibel every 1,000 feet.
Although construction activities will generate high intermittent noise, it will cease upon
completion of construction. Construction requires use of high-noise equipment,and it is
generally not feasible to grade sites or construct buildings and utility improvements without such
Page 5
Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
age 82
rIDJULIHIGJ 626 304 0402 P.07/25
equipment. The principal feasible mitigation measures for construction noise impacts is to limit
high noise construction to daytime hours, a measure which is included in the City's current
regulations. The City of Arcadia's noise ordinance restricts construction activity to between the
hours of 7:00 AM. and 7:00 PM. Monday through Saturday. Intermittent, temporary disturbance
of residential uses is expected occasionally during the construction period.
Findings
Changes or alterations have been required for, or incorporated into,the project that avoid or
substantially lessen the potential environmental effect identified in the FEIR.
Facts in Support of the Findings - •
The FEIR and Mitigation Monitoring Plan include the following 5 measures to reduce these
impacts:
!. Truck Loading and Staging during Site Preparation. Loading operations and staging for
trucks for removal of material from the site shall not take place within 200 feet of the
residences adjacent to the western property line. The most desirable location for loading
in terms of minimal noise impact on the surrounding residences is the center of the
southeastern half of the site.
2. Equipment mufflers, Muffled construction equipment shall be used by the construction
contractor whenever possible,
3. Construction Contact Person. The contractor shall designate a construction liaison staff
member who will deal with construction noise or other concerns that may arise, and shall
provide the name and telephone number of this individual to the City. The name and
telephone number of a contact person for comments or complaints by the area residents
shall be posted on the site at the main construction entrance or in another locution
clearly visible from surrounding sidewalks.
4. Construction Activity. The City of Arcadia restricts construction activity to between the
hours of 7:00 AM and 7;00 PM Monday through Saturday, No construction is allowed on
Sundays. To protect the residences adjacent to the project site to the west, as well as the
residences across the street to the north and east, no construction involving high-noise
equipment or deliveries by semi-trailer truckr shall take place on Saturdays.
S. Site access. Access to the subdivision will not be provided on Anoakia Lane either during
construction or after completion of the project.

3. Geology
Significant Effects
Using the Division's Statewide Fault Model, a complete probabilistic seismic hazard analysis
was performed for the site. The results indicate PGA of 0.69g for the Design Basis Earthquake
(Figure 7). Because significant earthquake ground motion is known by the State Geologist to
exist on the site and the PGA computed by the Division is higher than the standard envelope of
the 1997 Uniform Building Code, this is considered a significant impact.
The State Geologist's official Seismic Hazards Zone Map is predictive of the potential for
liquefaction. Because the proposed project is in close proximity to the official delineated
liquefaction zone, liquefaction hazard is considered potentially significant.
Findings
Changes or alterations have been required for, or incorporated into, the project that avoid or
substantially lessen the potential environmental effect identified in the FEIR.
Facts in Support of the Findings
The FEIR and Mitigation Monitoring Plan include the following 2 measures to reduce these
impacts:
I. The structures shall include special earthquake design by a California Registered
Structural Engineer. The City ofArcadia shall use the PGA of 0.69 for plan-check
purposes.
2. To mitigate the potential for liquefaction, subsurface geological drilling shall be
performed prior to issuance of a grading permit or demolition permit to determine the
exact location of the water table under the project sire. If the water table is shallower
than currently known, an analysis for the potential for liquefaction shall he performed. If
the analysis concludes a high potential for liquefaction, then speck engineering design
techniques identified such as the following shall be implemented:
• The ground surface shall be properly backfilled and compacted.
• Over excavated soils in the building area shall be recompacted as appropriate.
• Fill and baekfill shall be compacted to 90%or more of the maximum dry density
as appropriate.
▪ Final site grading shall be such that all water is diverted away from the
structures, and is not allowed to pond.
• Isolated pad footings shall be used for support of structures as appropriate.
• The lateral earth pressure w be resisted by retaining walls or similar structures
Page 7
Anoakia— CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 84
shall be increased as to allow for surcharge loads as appropriate.
• Weepholes or an equivalent system of backfill drainage shall be incorporated into
the retaining wall design as appropriate.
II. SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS THAT CANNOT BE AVOIDED.
IF THE PROJECT IS IMPLEMENTED
1. Historic Resources
Significant Effects •
The proposed project will result in the demolition of all 15 structures on the Anoakia property
which appear to be eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places and California
Register of Historic Resources under Criterion B(significant individuals)and Criterion C
(design).
Findings
1. Changes or alteration have been required for, or incorporated into,the project that
substantially lessen the potential environmental effect identified in the FEIR.
2. Specific economic, legal,social,or other consideration make infeasible the mitigation
measures or other project alternatives identified in the EIR.
Facts in Support of Findings
The FEIR and Mitigation Monitoring Plan include the following six measures to reduce these
impacts:
1. Prior to the issuance of a demolition permit, the Applicant shall produce at its cost and
expense up to five sets as determined by the City, of a documentation survey of the
property and all historically significant buildings and structures in accordance with the
Historic American Building Survey standards. This document shall include archival
quality photographs of exterior features, elevations, and significant interior features.
Scaled, "as-built"site plan and floor plans shall also be produced and an historic
documentation report included in the documentation package. The documentation
package will be archived at an appropriate location determined by the City and subject
to an agreement approved by the City, including the Arcadia Library,Arcadia Historical
Society, and the Arboretum of Los Angeles County.
2. In consultation with an historic preservation professional approved by the City and •
compensated by the Applicant, the Applicant shall produce at its cost and expense an
interpretive plan for the property for a permanent display before issuance of a demolition

permit. The City shall solicit proposals for locating the display and choose the most
appropriate location subject to an agreement approved by the City. A possible location
could be the Arboretum, the City library, City historic museum, or similar location.
Displayed materials may include photographs (current and historic) and written
materials describing the historical themes associated with the property.

6. The City shall comply with requirements in Section 15069.50 of the CEOA Guidelines
Page 9
Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 86
which specify the procedures to follow in the event of discovery of archaeological
resources.
Under the Secretary of the interior's Standards for Historic Preservation Projects and the
Standards and Guidelines for Rehabilitating Historic Buildings,there is no mitigation for
project's effects short of preserving nearly all of the site and structures in their current or
rehabilitated condition -which would result in a less than significant impact on historic
resources. Under CEQA Guidelines,partial preservation, such as preserving the main residence
while developing the rest of the site,would still result in a significant adverse impact on historic
resources, albeit of lesser magnitude when compared to demolishing all structures on the site.
Therefore,these mitigation measures will not reduce the impacts to historic resources to a less-
than-significant level.
Two of the alternative development scenarios and the"no development"alternative analyzed for
the project site in the FEIR were found capable of reducing the unavoidable historic resource
impacts to a less-than-significant level.These alternative scenarios were found to be infeasible
for reasons set forth in Section IV,Alternatives, of these Findings of Fact.
IV. PROJECT ALTERNATIVES
The FEIR analyzed four alternative development scenarios to the Project. The City of Arcadia
has reviewed and considered such alternative development scenarios in light of the adverse
environmental effects which may result from the project and the reduction or elimination of such
effect which may be accomplished by selection of the alternatives.
The alternatives are presented below, and specific economic, social, or other considerations that
render such alternatives infeasible are set forth.
Alternative 1: "No Project"
No Development
Under this scenario,no development of any kind would occur and the 19.1-acre project site
would remain as an estate with the main house operating as a property management office and 14
other unused structures. The property would also continue to be used periodically for filming.
Although no development would result from this alternative,new impacts on the environment
could occur. The main house,pool house, chapel, garage and office building are on the City's
list of high risk buildings. These buildings need to be brought up to the seismic standards of the
City's adopted Ordinance No. 1924. To retrofit and rehabilitate the main residence in accordance
with the California Historical Building Code (CHBC)would cost approximately$5.5 million, .
excluding soft costs,site work,furniture, fixtures,and equipment(see Appendix E). To retrofit
the buildings without complying with the Standards could result in compromising the historic
Page 10
Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 87
significance,and the historic structure, therefore creating a significant impact. In California,
historic properties may be eligible for the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Hazard
Mitigation Grant Program for seismic retrofit of historic properties and a 20% Federal
Rehabilitation Tax Credit for historic properties that are income-producing to offset some of the
rehabilitation costs.
This alternative is considered infeasible due to the cost associated with retrofitting and
rehabilitating the main residence. Additionally,this alternative would conflict with the Arcadia
General Plan land use and zoning designations for the parcel,therefore not meeting the City's
objectives for the site. This alternative would not meet the objectives of the Applicant either.
Development in the Absence of the Project
In the absence of the proposed project, another residential development is the most probable
future use for the project site because of its General Plan land use and zoning designation as a
residential land use,and the compatibility of such development with surrounding residential land
uses. This alternative considers another residential development on the site. Other uses are
discussed as other alternatives below.
While the specific site plan might vary,the overall type and size of development would be
expected to be similar to the proposed Anoakia Residential Development. As with the proposed
project, it is anticipated that a proponent of such development would also aim to maximize the
use of the land within the site and to create the economic return necessary for such development
to occur. Therefore,under this scenario,the intensity of development on the site would be
expected to be comparable to that of the project. With similar square footage and use,no
substantial difference in environmental impacts is anticipated to result from this scenario. Since
this alternative is similar to the proposed project, it would meet the project objectives.
This alternative is not environmentally superior to the proposed project because it would neither
avoid nor substantially reduce significant impacts to historic resources to a less-than-significant
level. In order to meet the minimum lot size requirements of the General Plan land use and
zoning designations, some or all of the buildings on the site would need to be demolished.
Therefore,this alternative is rejected.
Alternative 2: Preservation and Reuse of the Baldwin Residence
•
This alternative considers preserving the Baldwin residence on the project site and subdividing
the parcel to provide up to 27 half-acre residential lots for the subsequent development of single-
family homes.The Baldwin residence would be used as either a residence or center for the
residents of the project.
Under this alternative,the Baldwin residence would be rehabilitated, including the seismic
retrofit,in accordance with the California Historical Building Code (CI-IBC). This retrofitting
Page 11
Anoakia'— CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 88
and rehabilitating would cost approximately S5.5 million, excluding soft costs, site work,
furniture,fixtures, and equipment (as set forth in Appendix E of the Final EIR). In California,
historic properties may be eligible for the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Hazard
Mitigation.Grant Program for seismic retrofit of historic properties and a 20%Federal
Rehabilitation Tax Credit for historic properties that are income-producing to offset some of the
rehabilitation costs.The remaining 14 historic buildings will he demolished and replaced with
single family residences.
The magnitude of the unavoidable significant impact on historic resources will be reduced,but
not eliminated,under this alternative. Other impacts,including those from short-term
construction noise,from removal of oak trees, and from geologic hazards would be similar to the
project's impacts. Overall this alternative is considered environmentally superior to the proposed
project because it would reduce the magnitude of adverse impacts on historic resources and
biological resources.
This alternative is considered infeasible because of economic considerations.The economic
feasibility of undertaking the retrofit and rehabilitation of the Residence can only be determined
by the Applicant within the context of projected return on investment.The Applicant, after
reviewing Preliminary Rehabilitation Estimate(as set forth in the Appendix E of the Final EIR),
determined that retrofitting and rehabilitating the Residence at its current location would result in
additional costs which include the price of the land.The preservation of the Residence in its
current location would reduce the number of lots on the project site from 31 to 27. The land costs
associated with the four lost lots in addition to the retrofitting and rehabilitation costs would
render the project economically infeasible to the Applicant.
•
Alternative 3: Reuse of the Baldwin Residence and Other Structures
This alternative considers preservation of the residence, related structures and the grounds for use
as a museum, community center,park, or resident summer camp when school is not in session.
The adaptive reuse of the structures requires upgrading the buildings to comply with the seismic
standards in Arcadia's Ordinance No. 1924. To do so in conformance with the California
Historical Building Code would cost approximately $5.5 million for retrofitting and
rehabilitating just the main residence (as set forth in Appendix E to the Final EIR). This estimate
excludes soft costs,site work, furniture,fixtures, and equipment. In California,historic
properties may be eligible for the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Hazard Mitigation
Grant Program for seismic retrofit of historic properties and a 20%Federal Rehabilitation Tax
Credit for historic properties that are income-producing to offset some of the rehabilitation costs.
To retrofit the 15 structures without complying with the Standards could result in compromising
the historic significance and a significant unavoidable impact.
There would be no impacts to the existing oak trees because this alternative maintains the
grounds in their existing state. Short term noise impacts would result from the seismic upgrading
of the 15 structures on-site. The impacts from geologic hazards would be similar to those of the

proposed project. This alternative could result in potentially significant impacts from traffic due
to the substantially larger number of trips typically generated by visitors and patrons of the types
of uses under this alternative. Overall,because this alternative would eliminate significant impact
on historic resources,this alternative is considered environmentally superior to the proposed
project.
This alternative would not meet the City's objectives for the site as reflected in the Arcadia
General Plan land use and zoning designations for the parcel.This alternative would not meet the
objectives of the Applicant,either. Furthermore, this alternative is considered economically
infeasible. A proponent of this alternative would have to purchase the site from the Applicant and
then retrofit and rehabilitate all the structures.No such proposal is known to the City or to the
Applicant to exist. Therefore,this scenario is not considered a viable alternative.
Alternative 4: Re-establishment of a Private School
This alternative considers that the estate be used as a private school.After Anita Baldwin's death,
a private school operated on the property for 49 years until it was closed in 1989 as a result of
severe damage from the Whittier earthquake. Under this alternative, all the structures on the
property would need to be repaired and upgraded to comply with the Arcadia seismic standards
set forth in Ordinance No. 1924. To accomplish the required upgrade in conformance with the
California Historical Building Code would cost approximately $5.5 million for just the main
residence(as set forth in Appendix E of the Final EIR). This estimate excludes soft costs, site
work, furniture, fixtures, and equipment. In California,historic properties may be eligible for the
Federal Emergency Management Agency's Hazard Mitigation Grant Program for seismic retrofit
of historic properties and a 20% Federal Rehabilitation Tax Credit for historic properties that are
income-producing to offset some of the rehabilitation costs. To do so without complying with
the Standards could result in compromising the historic significance,and in a significant adverse
unavoidable impact.
Impacts to oak trees would be minimal under this alternative. Short term noise impacts would
result from the seismic upgrading of the 15 structures on site. The impacts from geologic
hazards would be similar to those of the proposed project. This alternative could result in
potentially significant impacts from traffic due to the substantially larger number of trips
typically generated by students and their families. Overall,because this alternative would
eliminate significant impact on historic resources, it is considered environmentally superior to the
proposed project.
This alternative would not meet the City's objectives for the site as reflected in the Arcadia
General Plan land use and zoning designations for the parcel. This alternative would not meet the
objectives of the Applicant, either. Furthermore,this alternative is considered economically
infeasible. A proponent of this alternative would have to purchase the site from the Applicant and
then retrofit and rehabilitate all the structures for reuse as a school.No such proposal is known to
the City or to the Applicant to exist. Therefore,this scenario is not considered a viable

APPLICANT: Arcadia Oaks,LLC
ADDRESS: c/o Hover Development Company
3501 Jamboree Boulevard
Newport Beach, CA 92660
PROJECT LOCATION: Northwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Baldwin Avenue
PROJECT APPROVAL DATE:
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:The proposed subdivision will consist of 31 residential lots on a 19.1-
acre site with necessary streets and utilities. Construction of 31 homes will be preceded by the
demolition of existing structures, removal of a number of existing mature trees including oaks,
conversion of an existing drainage channel to covered box drain on a portion of the channel, and
addition of a pumping well at the northeast corner of the property. -
MITIGATION MONITORING PROGRAM: A Final EIR for the proposed project requires
certain mitigation measures to reduce significant impacts to less-than-significant levels. Pursuant
to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Section 21081.6,this mitigation monitoring
program has been prepared to ensure implementation of those measures.
It may be necessary and appropriate to modify the specifics of the mitigation measures in order to
meet the intent of the City to minimize or eliminate significant environmental effects as documented
in the EIR,the Statement of Findings and Overriding Considerations,and the Mitigation Monitoring
Program. These changes may be required because of changes to the proposed project, changes in •
the environment around the project, or other changes which make the mitigation measures included
in the EIR infeasible, inappropriate to be implemented, or unnecessary to mitigate the significant
environmental effects of the project.
Modifications to the mitigation measures may be made by the Development Services Director
subject to one of the following findings, documented by evidence included in the record. Findings
and related documentation supporting the findings involving modifications to mitigation measures
shall be maintained in the project file with the Mitigation Monitoring Program and made available
to the public on request:
1.The mitigation measure included in the EIR and the Mitigation Monitoring Program are no
longer required because the significant environmental impact identified in the E1R has been
found as a result of changes in the project,changes in conditions of the environment, or other

2.The modifications or substitute mitigation measures to be included in the Mitigation
Monitoring Program provide protection of the environment equal to or greater than that
afforded by the mitigation measure included in the EIR and the Mitigation Monitoring
Program.

The modified or substitute mitigation measures do not have significant adverse effects on the
environment in addition to or greater than those which were considered by the lead agency
in its decisions on the EIR, the proposed project and the Statement of Overriding
Considerations for the proposed project.
AND
The modified or substitute mitigation measures are feasible, and their implementation can
be assured by the lead agency through measures included in the Mitigation Monitoring
Program or other City procedures.

STATEM'iNT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERAT.—.S
FOR THE ANOAKIA RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
The City of Arcadia finds that mitigation measures listed in the Final EIR SCH#99051017 and
Mitigation Monitoring Plan will,when implemented,fully mitigate or substantially reduce most of
the significant environmental effects identified in the Final EIR. Nonetheless, one significant
environmental impact of the Project is unavoidable even after incorporation of all feasible mitigation
measures.The unavoidable impact associated with the Project is:
• The demolition of all 15 structures on the Anoakia property which appear to be eligible for
listing on the National Register of Historic Places and California Register of Historic Resources
under Criterion B(significant individuals) and Criterion C (design).
In this regard, the City of Arcadia hereby finds that all feasible mitigation measures have been
identified in the FEIR and shall be implemented with the Project, and that any significant
unavoidable effects remaining are acceptable due to the following specific economic, social, and
other considerations,based upon the facts set forth in the Findings of Fact, in the Final EIR, and in
the public record of the consideration of the Project, as follows:
1. The project will remove an attractive nuisance caused by the presence of deteriorated and semi-
abandoned structures on the property which throughout the years have been subject to repeated
vandalism, trespassing, and poor maintenance complaints reported to the City thereby
furthering public safety.
2. The Project will provide for a productive reuse of the underutilized and deteriorating property
that is visually compatible with the surrounding development.
3. The Project will remove seismically and otherwise unsafe buildings and replace them with
residences built to current seismic sand other safety requirements thereby furthering public
safety.
4. The Project will further the City of Arcadia's objectives for the site reflected in the General
Plan land use and zoning designations,which permit development of the site for residential uses
with a minimum lot size of 22,000 square feet. The General Plan designates the site as Single
Family Residential land use with a density of 0-2 dwelling units per acre. The site is zoned R-O
&D.
5. The Project maintains a number of existing characteristics of the site while providing single-
family residences in keeping with surrounding residential development in the City.Existing site
elements which will be incorporated in the Project include 294 existing trees (including 95
Coast Live oaks and 20 Engelmann oaks),the"Le Jenne" relief,twin arbors,and the perimeter
wall.
6. The Project will provide additional single-family housing which will contribute to meeting
regional housing needs and the goals and objectives of the City's Housing Element.

The Keith Companies on behalf of Arcadia Oaks, developer
Consideration of developing the 19.1 acre parcel commonly known as the Anoakia
•
property with a 31-lot Residential Planned Development. '
The staff report was presented.
Ms. Butler presented a comprehensive staff report outlining the applicant's proposal and
recommended conditions of approval.
Pat Mann, Principal, Cotton/Beland Assoc. (CBA), the consultant hired by the City to
prepare the EIR for this project. The environmental process begins when an applicant
submits an application for a project. The city then prepares an initial study to determine
whether or not the project is going to have a significant impact. After this study, the city
determined that this project would have a significant impact in the area of historic, biological
resources, noise and geology.
In May, the city issued a Notice of Preparation in which it transmitted the initial study and its
findings to other public agencies and made it available to the public to inform them that the
city intended to prepare a focused EIR dealing with the environmental affects of the project.
That DEIR was published on July 21s` and circulated for review through September 8t'. The
Planning Commission held a public hearing on the DEIR on August 24th. The city received
responses from a number of agencies and others interested in the historic and biology
resources. CBA prepared additional analysis to respond to those comments and the
document before the Planning Commission tonight is a final EIR which includes written
responses to the written comments on the DEIR and modifications to the report which reflect
further analysis and recommendations in response to those comments.
The certification by City Council will mean that the City Council finds that the EIR provides
the information required by law. This is an informational document and not one of public
policy. The City Council is required to make a finding that the benefits of a project outweigh
the significant adverse environmental affects. Further the City Council must make a
statement of overriding considerations to approve project, that after all mitigation measures,
has significant affects.
The specific environmental affects that they found most important were the adverse impact
on historic resources including the loss of the historic Anoakia Estate, the main house and
other buildings on the property. This is a significant impact in that this project is eligible for .
listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The State guidelines for CEQA require
that the City Council find that such a project is significant and that they examined the
potential for mitigation measures which could mitigate those significant affects but they did
not find any mitigation measures which would be possible to fully mitigate those significant
affects to a level less than significant and also allow the project to proceed. The mitigation
required for the project includes the development of an interpretive plan, which would reflect

•
the historic character and provide a memorial to the site and the historic character of it.
Preparation of a historic resources report would document the site and provide fully
developed architectural drawings indicating the existing conditions of the site. They also
examined the possibility of moving the site to an alternate location and the mitigation
recommended provides a time period in which such a relocation would be investigated. The
relocation cannot be assured by the mitigation measures provided so the assumption is that
the house would not be possible to be relocated.
They also looked at saving a portion of the property particularly the main house and the
immediate surrounding buildings, which would involve the loss of 3-4 of the lots on the site.
They found that this would substantially mitigate the project affects but even this mitigation
measure would not fully mitigate the project affects to a less than significant level because of
the loss of the character defining features of the site which include the large estate setting Of
the property and a number of out buildings which would be lost.
As part of the r'EIR process, the applicant prepared a cost analysis indicating the feasibility
of saving the property and what it would cost for rehabilitation.
The second impact of the project, which was found to be potentially significant, was
biological impacts including the loss of some of the existing trees, especially oak trees.
Approximately 1/4 of the existing live oaks on the site would be lost and many other trees will
be affected because of construction occurring within their drip lines — the protected zo�e.
There are 24 Englemann Oaks on the property of which 4 would be lost to development.
Mitigation measures are included in the project to replace these oaks in accordance with the
city's replacement ordinance on a 2 for 1 basis, however, the project does preserve a
substantial number of the oaks.
Ms. Butler explained the time limits for tentative maps and conditional use permits. The
existing gate on Anoakia Ln. will be closed. The only access from Anoakia Ln.will be to hie
City owned well site. The landscaping along the perimeter of the site will be cleaned pup.
Sidewalks are not being proposed and new plantings will be planted where appropriate. The
homeowner's association will be responsible for the maintenance of all the common areas
outside and inside the gated area.
The public hearing was opened.
Tom Hover, Hover Development, representing Arcadia Oaks LLC, 701 W. Foothill Blvd.
indicated they have been the owners of the property since July 1998. They have spent a great
deal of time processing this application through the homeoewner's association and the City
in preparation to reach this point. He showed a presentation of the site, including photo of
the dilapidated state of some of the buildings, the proposed new site plan, the entry gate and
the new homes.
He said their intent is to maintain as much of the character of the site as possible. They will
keep the existing wall and enhance the landscaping along the perimeter. They intend to
remove the gate on Anoakia Ln. and construct a solid wall with landscaping.

The existing structure was built in 1913, and is approximately 25,000-sq. ft. It has
deteriorated dramatically and is used frequently for motion pictures and television and
consequently cosmetically looks appealing but the interior is run down. The property has
been without care for the last 10 years and has continued to deteriorate during that time.
There are 474 trees on the property, 150 are oak trees. They would be removing 35 oak trees
including 4 Englemanns. They have reached an agreement with the city to replant oak trees
on a 2 to 1 ratio. A total of 360 trees will remain on the property.
The proposed entrance will be directly across from Arbolada Dr. This will be a gated private
community with a guardhouse near the entrance. The project has been designed to maintain
some of the character of the existing property. They will refurbish and relocate the existing
arbors on both sides of the entry. This would tie it in with the character of the community.
Driving into the project one will see the existing La Joun fountain which will be refurbished
and relocated to the entrance. He explained the proposed site .plans. There will be a
secondary emergency entrance off of Foothill Blvd., which will be gated. There are 31 half-
acre lots. They have spent a great deal of time and effort to minimize the impact of the
houses on the trees. They have continually developed different architectural elements within
the design of the homes to allow them to be flexible in terms of tree location. In several
instances, they detached the garage to save trees. He felt there is a lot of flexibility in the
design of the architectural plans. He pointed out that they have taken the garages away from
the street. To get to the garage,they'd have to go through the port cochere or it will be a side
entry garage and by doing so they have eliminated garage doors from facing the street.
Vince Foley, 320 Cambridge, said that it is the owner's right to develop the property within
reason. He said that he is involved with the Arboretum and providing tours for 4th and 5th
graders. This site is a source of great history and an integral part of Arcadia's history. It
would be a shame to lose that. He suggested moving a portion of the house to the
Arboretum so that it would be on display.. The Arboretum can create an area showcasing a
portion of the house. It would be much better to have on display a portion of the house
instead of showing photos.
Wayne Williams, 1029 N. Old Ranch Rd., said that his street faces the subject property.
They would be glad to see something done with the house. His neighbors are all in favor of
the development of the site. They feel it would be an improvement. It is an eye sore.
Meyer Piet, 757 Anoakia Ln., wondered why there is a need to have a private community in
the City? He said he resides in a small ranch style home and has been there for many years.
They assisted the City to annex this property many years ago. When this property was
rezoned, Mr. Gilb, who was a Council Member at that time, assured the community that if
and when the property was developed, it would have full size city streets.
He did not think that 28' wide streets with rolled curbs are acceptable. The streets should be
at least the width of Anoakia Ln. Their street is 40' wide and it only serves 7 homes. The
Anoakia — CC Report

•
proposed streets would be a mess on trash days, especially, when considering that each home
will probably have a minimum of 3 cars. That would be at least 90 cars in this area. It would
be difficult for emergency vehicles to get through the development. 28' wide streets are
ridiculous.
He asked that the Planning Commission keep in mind that once the developer develops the
property he will leave and forget about the area but the residents will be left "holding the
bag". It is the Planning Commission's responsibility to keep the area beautiful. He was
concerned with setbacks and building heights.
Beth Costanza, Executive Director of the Arcadia Chamber of Commerce, 388 W.
Huntington Dr.,read the following letter from the Executive Board of the Arcadia Chamber:
"The Executive Board of the Arcadia Chamber of Commerce wishes to go on
record as a supporter of some sort of preservation of the historic Anoakia Estate.
We, as a chamber of commerce wish to state that we also believe it is in the best
interest of the community and, indeed, the area at large, to preserve the oak trees
on the Anoakia property. The Chamber believes that it is high time to utilize
preservation over demolition in our town. The main historical heritage of Arcadia
is in our beautiful oak trees and in the Lucky Baldwin legacy, and these two
historic bastions are equally in anger of disappearing with a shove of the same
bulldozer.
The Arcadia Chamber of Commerce would like the Planning Commission to
make every effort possible to at least partly preserve what little is left of our
vanishing history—the Anoakia Mansion and the oak trees.
We believe that there is a way to preserve to some degree, the mansion, and to an
even greater degree the oak trees. There are architects who are able to design
homes that are built around trees, not over them. There are conservancies and
historical societies that are willing to help find finds, grants and donations, not
moan over the lack thereof.
In a positive, affirming attitude, we need to work together to preserve as much as
possible of what is left of the heritage of our City of Arcadia."
Carol Libby, 438 W. Norman Ave., agreed with Ms. Costanza's comment regarding
"preservation instead of demolition". She thought they should somehow preserve it by
relocating a portion of the house.
Phyllis Chapman, 430 S. Grandview, Sierra Madre, said she shares the same concerns as her
Arcadia neighbors. Many people are interested in the history of this site. She thou t it
would be a good idea to move a portion to the Arboretum. If they demolish the house, then
the history is gone forever but by moving it they will be able to save some of the history and
heritage of Arcadia.

Peter Adkins, CEO Los Angeles County Arboretum, 2026-Sinaloa Ave., Altadena, said there
would be a great deal of benefit if a portion of the house was moved to the Arboretum. This
would be a great educational tool.
In rebuttal, Mr. Hover explained that the building heights, setbacks and density, of the project
are in conformance with the zoning code. They are willing to donate the mansion to any
entity that the City deems worthwhile. The entrance from Foothill Blvd. is only for
emergency vehicles. They will do all of the site work including demolition at one time
including all of the improvements. From a construction stand point, they would phase it
based upon the success of sales.
•
Steve Deitsch, the City Attorney, remarked that the developer met with staff this afternoon to
further refine a few of the conditions dealing with tree preservation and historical structures.
If the Planning Commission directs staff to prepare a resolution, it is likely that there might
be amendments to the proposed conditions of approval. Separate and apart from trees,
another issue that was discussed was the'modification to the indemnification condition
(condition 5). The Planning Commission will have an opportunity to review and approve
final conditions and the developer will still have the right to express their position.
In response to a question by the Planning Commission, Mr. Hover replied that they have not
studied relocating a portion of the building. Their estimate, which is included in the package,
is from a moving company to relocate the top two floors of the mansion but not for moving
portions of the building.
In the purchase agreement from the McCaslin Family, a number of items were excluded from
the purchase. They do not have access or control over a number of those items. They are
governed by Mr. McCaslin and his family. He was aware that Mr. McCaslin has had
discussions with a representative from. the Arboretum as well as the City in terms of
potentially making donations of some of those items but he was not privy to speak on what
items. One item discussed with staff was that within the next week a meeting be held with
the McCaslin representative and the Arboretum to discuss what items would be donated so
that there would be a list. He hoped to have something executed by the next Planning
Commission meeting.
Commissioner Huang said that based on most of the testimony heard tonight and the letter
from LA Conservancy it is requested that the building be donated. He asked if they would
consider in participating with relocation costs? He realized that they are willing to donate
but would they help in the costs involved?
Mr. Hover said that it would not be economically feasible to restore or relocate the structure.
There is no estimate on relocating a portion of the building.' This project has taken
. significantly longer than they anticipated. They have been impacted from a financial
standpoint. He would not be willing to make a commitment or comment on their willingness
to join in on that cost.

how many trees will be left and not how many are being removed. Based on his calculation
there will be approximately 14 trees per lot, i.e.; one tree for every 1,500 sq. ft.
In response to questions by Commissioner Murphy, Ms. Butler stated that the Fire Dept. does
not have any objections to the street width as long as the street is posted with "No Parking'
signs. These signs will be reviewed by staff. There might be minor modifications to the
front entry, subject to the Fire Dept. approval for access. All other departments have
reviewed the project and with the exception of the front entry width they are satisfied. She
noted that condition 6 could be deleted.
Commissioner Murphy said the mansion is trashed. It looks good from the exterior but the
inside is in horrible shape. The site was used for a boarding school and day school for 10
years and as a result has been ruined. The building has been stripped from many of its
valuable items, leaded glass, tiffany lamps and the woodwork. What they are looking at is a
shell that is not earthquake safe. There are huge cracks from the Sierra Madre earthqua e.
He thought that it would be a good idea to preserve and save it but where has everyone ben
for the past 50 years? The project at hand is an excellent project. The elevations ale
beautiful. He liked the layout of the meandering streets and the entry. He could not find a y
reason to deny the project but some of the conditions need to be refined.
Commissioner Sleeter agreed with comments made by Commissioner Murphy regarding he
condition of the building. He was appalled when they visited the site. He had no idea of ilhe
deterioration and how badly the building had been stripped out. Prior to that time, he was of
the opinion that there should be some type of an intervention to preserve the facility. He vas
happy to see the willingness of the Arboretum and others to consider preserving some portion
of the structure for future generations. The homes are beautiful. He wished more homes
could be presented of this caliber. They are consistent with all of the zoning regulations,
albeit, the zoning regulations might be different today than when the original project was
approved. It is unfortunate that they will be losing what potentially was a treasure but it
certainly is not now.
Commissioner Huang was impressed with the site layout as well as the architectural design.
He was particularly impressed with the applicant's presentation. He thought the effort has
been made to have detached garages in order to save trees. The developer has made efforts
to save as many trees as he can. He commended the developer on that because they do not
see this type of an approach often. There are a variety of different plans or architectural
styles for only 31 homes. He asked that particular attention be given to the bathhouse and'the
gym in preserving the buildings. The main house is in a very deteriorated state but the two
buildings mentioned above are unique and resemble the Asian/Greek temples. He strongly
suggested that these two buildings be preserved. He was glad that they received a letter firom
the LA Conservancy indicating their acceptance of the Final EIR This group is well known.
for not hesitating to take legal action to stop similar type projects.
Commissioner Bruckner viewed this differently than the other Planning Commissioners. The
proposal would be a fine layout if the property was anywhere else and did not have the
history that it has. The history of this great site and house are tied to the history of the city.
{ Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 112
This is probably the last parcel of its size available for development. He was not against
developing the site. The development regulations encourage a well-planned development
including providing flexibility and creativity in design. Taking into account the history of
the site, he thought there could have been more creativity and a genuine effort to look at the
building and to try to save them by either utilizing them for condos or community purposes.
The idea of moving it or saving relics of it take it completely out of context and not in the
spirit of what they should be doing to preserve the history of the city. The developer
purchased the lot knowing the history of the site and its sensitivity.
He thought the Planning Commission should review it further. The developer should utilize
more creativity in the subdivision of the site and should look at alternatives to preserve the
building and the setting. He could either redevelop the lot with the same number of homes or
with slightly less but achieve a preservation project in a setting that is important to the city.

4. RESOLUTION NO. 1599
A resolution of the Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia, recommending approval of
CUP 99-004 and Vesting TM 52745 for the property located at 701 W. Foothill Blvd., more
commonly known as the Anoakia Property.
RESOLUTION NO. 1600
A resolution of the Planning Commission of the City of Arcadia, expressing the Planning
Commission's comments to the City Council on CUP 99-004 and Vesting TM 52745 for the
property located at 701 W. Foothill Blvd., more commonly known as the Anoakia Property.
Ms. Butler read the titles of the resolutions.
Commissioner Murphy had the following concerns:
1. Oak trees—he felt the developer should be responsible for all the existing and newly planted oak
trees for at least one year after completion of the project. He said the developer is responsible
for all public improvements for one year and the same conditions should apply to oak trees.
There is nothing that guarantees that the trees will survive. It is possible that any damage to a
tree would not become evident until 6-months after construction. The developer should be
responsible. What if during the course of construction they get too close to the drip line of the
tree and it is permanently damaged? Oak trees are an integral part of this project. His request is
not unreasonable since the preservation of the oak trees is the second most important issue on the
mitigation measures. He thought this would give the newly formed homeowner's association
(HOA) power in case any of the trees do not survive.
•
Ms. Butler said the new HOA would be responsible for the landscaping in all the common areas.
She said that based upon meetings with the developer, horticulturists would be on site during
construction. Sometimes trees die as a result of over watering or disease. It would be difficult to
Report
— CC Re
Arcadia City Planning Commission 4 Anoakia p
December 7, 1999
Page 114
pin point what is caused by the developer. They simply could die because the tree might h ve
was there. The tree might have been partially
diseased but there is no real way of knowing. Any condition would need to be equitable for both
the developer and staff to ensure replacement. The oak tree ordinance ensures that oak trees will
be replaced if damaged by disease or construction. Staff feels that this was a fair condition
because it ensures that trees are replaced regardless of who owns the property. A City approved
horticulturist will be on-site while excavations are taking place because Staff does not have that
expertise.
Mr. Nicholson explained that the new HOA would become the property owner of all the
common areas and it would be their responsibility to maintain all the oak trees in the common
areas. Oak trees are very sensitive but arborist will be available during construction.
Commissioner Kalemkiarian disagreed with Commissioner Murphy He felt once the property
changes ownership then the developer should be relieved of that responsibility. During
construction inspectors will be on site to assure that oak trees are not damaged and that
construction is done properly.
Chairman Pro Tern Huang did not feel comfortable with requiring a condition fr m this
developer that they have not required of other developers.
Commissioner Murphy argued that this is not a typical development, thus, what they have done
historically should not apply here.

2. 90-day time limit for the relocation of artifacts- he felt it was physically impossible to relocate
items in that time period. He thought that the 30-days for the offer is acceptable but that
milestones should be set up. This time limit might be acceptable if they are moving a small
garage but not for this project. It would be very difficult to have all the permits in place within
that period to move the building. He felt this is just a way to appease the concerned citizens,who
want to preserve the house but this is not giving these people adequate time to relocate items.
Commissioner Kalemkiarian remarked that the preservationists have had plenty of time to think
about relocating. They have been aware of this proposal since the first Planning Commission
meeting, which was in August but most were aware of the historical nature of this house for
many years prior to the Planning Commission hearing.
Commissioner Murphy agreed and said that he was the Planning Commissioner who said that the
people who wanted to preserve the house have had years. He thought there should not be
language in the resolution which is physically impossible to accomplish.
Ms. Butler could not comment on if this time frame is realistic because staff does not have any
formal experience in this matter. She said the 90-days is from the final approval date. The 90-
days was agreed upon by staff and the developer as a reasonable time to move a house. Both the
developer and staff did not want the relocation of the house to go on indefinitely. They felt that
if someone wants the house,they should relocate it without wasting a lot of time. This would not
be fair to the applicant.
Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
Arcadia City Planning Commission 6 Page 116
Ms. Butler said that based upon discussions with the developer, staff would rely on their
expertise in moving the building but it would be unfair to the developer to not put a time limit.
The buildings could be placed on blocks and moved to interim locations until a perm ent
location is found. She read the code section in the AMC regarding moving of buildings.
3. Developer to provide traffic control during construction —he thought the immediate area would
be a traffic nightmare and the developer should provide traffic control. The City shoul have
jurisdiction over this and should not incur that cost.
Ms. Butler said this is a valid request and she would refer it to the Traffic Engineer for his
comments.
Mr. Deitsch said that the condition would read:
"If deemed necessary by the City's Traffic Engineer, the applicant shall provide at
its cost and expense off-site construction traffic control pursuant to the approval o 1
the City Engineer."
The Planning Commission was in agreement.
4. Maintenance of common areas — would the CC&Rs address the maintenance of the perimeter
walls and the landscaping?
Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
Arcadia City Planning Commission 7 Page 117
Ms. Butler said that condition 8 addresses that issue and requires That CC&Rs be recorded.
"Perimeter walls" are included in the second paragraph under"final plans".
5. Phase I site assessment—Mr. Murphy asked if the City has required that the developer conduct
this type of an assessment to determine possible contaminants in the soil for health and safety
purposes? They do not know what happened there while the schools were occupying the site.
Mr. Hover the developer of the project indicated that this was conducted and they would forward
a copy of the report to the Planning Commission.
6. Who would be responsible for the cost of relocating the house/items — Commissioner Murphy
thought that the developer should be responsible.
Commissioner Kalemkiarian disagreed. He did not think that it is the developer's responsibility
to relocate the items in the house. The developer is not the owner of the artifacts. Why should
he be responsible for the relocation? This is undue hardship on the developer.
Mr. Hover felt comfortable with the language in the staff report. They would donate the building
to an organization that is interested in the building subject to City approval. They are not
experienced historical building movers. They are concerned with the language regarding the
expense of moving artifacts or elements from the property. They have agreed to make a
contribution to whatever entity that would be responsible for removing those item(s) from the
property.
Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 118
Arcadia City Planning Commission 8
Mr. Deitsch said that is how the condition is currently worded. It is without limitation as to what
the actual cost might be. It is worded such that the developer would make a contribution to a
charitable organization who would then remove the material from the property.
Mark Elliott, the attorney for the developer, said the developer has agreed to make a reasonable
contribution to a charitable organization for the cost of relocation and storage. The City would
be evaluating the relocation cost and present the figures to them. The intent of the applicant was
would into the document. They would like all of the ssues
to establish a specific sum that wo �go Y
cleared as part of the condition. He said the Arboretum has expressed interest in the building and
they are willing to donate a reasonable amount toward relocation.
Ms. Butler said that staff did attempt to contact several companies with expertise in hi torical
renovation, but was unable to get anyone to return her calls and to get any firm answer on the
cost and time limit of moving portions of the house without the City having to pay or the
estimate. The City does not have any means of determining what the relocation cost w uld be.
Based upon discussions with the developer, staff will rely on their expertise in mo ing the
building
Mr. Elliott said the intent of the developer was to make a contribution to an entity to defray the
cost of relocation and storage. It is their intent that there be a specific cost. He pointe out that
they are not the legal owners of some of the items on the site—the McCaslin Family is e owner
who is donating them. Their purpose was to donate funds to defray the removal of McCaslin
Family's property to transport the items. The applicant does not feel that it is their responsibility
and that is the reason they requested that it be done as a donation. For example, the relocation
cost for the fireplace could be $100,000, but the applicant could not agree to an unknown figure
Anoakia — CC Report
Arcadia City Planning Commission 9 December 7, 1999
Page 119
at this point and time. It is not economically reasonable. The developer will contribute to the
cost of relocation of the items to a City approved location and donate the building to the City but
they do not feel comfortable to committing to an unknown figure for relocation costs.
Ms. Butler cited language on page 3 of the "Mitigation monitoring" dealing with the
removal/relocation/storage of materials.-
Commissioner Kalemkiarian could not understand why the developer is responsible for items
that are not the developers. In the letter from the McCaslin Family they state that relocation
would be paid by the organization that is receiving the items.
Mr. Deitsch explained the legal theory. An EIR was prepared that has identified a historical
issue — something that requires mitigation. This is the way to mitigate the loss of a historical
treasure. This is a mitigation measure to reduce the impact on the environment. There are many
ways to mitigate and the condition before the Planning Commission is one way that staff has
chosen to deal with the mitigation of the historical impact.
Commissioner Kalemkiarian felt the condition was for an open ended dollar amount. The
developer could get his construction workers to move the items and save money instead of an
experienced historical mover who would charge much more. He did not think that removal of
most of the items would be difficult but the relocation of the fireplace would be complicated. He
suggested going through each item and putting a cap on the relocation of each item.
Mr. Deitsch said the Planning Commission could determine a percentage of relocation cost and
the recipient would be responsible for the remainder.
Anoakia — CC Report
Arcadia City Planning Commission 10 December 7, 1999
Page 120
Chairman Pro Tern Huang thought that is a better approach.
Commissioner Kalemkiarian thought the percentage route still leaves it open-ended.
Mr. Hover said they are not expert in relocating items. They preferred a specific dollar amount
that they could agree to.
Mr. Elliott has requested that the Arboretum, who typically handles items like this, to tell them
how much it would cost to relocate these items.
Ms. Butler said that the developer's offer was received, but staff did not feel that it would be
adequate but until the City has some idea they are uncomfortable with taking a dollar figure.
Commissioner Kalemkiarian thought those historical movers and dismantlers would be very
expensive. None of the items that are going to be donated are fragile.
Mr. Elliott said the initial figure they came up with for relocation cost was $5,000. They felt the
City could make a counter offer if they did not feel this amount is adequate. He realized that it is
not staff's responsibility to come up with the relocation costs. He pointed out that the items
belong to the McCaslin Family.
Commissioner Murphy remarked that the McCaslin Family is donating the items but th are not
7
the developers. He did not think this is staff's problem. The developer should resolve this issue.
The developer has a list of the items and it is their responsibility to get quotes on relocation.
Anoakia 7 CC Report
Arcadia City Planning Commission 11 December 7, 1999
Page 121
Mr. Hover pointed out that the McCaslin Family's letter states that the relocation would be paid
by the recipient. He suggested continued discussions with staff for a total sum.
•
Mr. Elliott said the applicant is caught in the middle. This property does not belong to the
applicant. It belongs to McCaslin Family. The McCaslins do not have to donate any of these
items. They can remove and sell them. There is a benefit that both the City and Arboretum are
gaining from these donations in the aspect of preservation of these items. The applicant is trying
to ease that process by making a contribution. It is difficult to agree to an open-ended figure.
Commissioner Murphy did not think that$5,000 was adequate.
Commissioner Kalemkiarian thought most of the items are fairly easy to relocate. The more
difficult items would be ones that need to be dismantled.
Chairman Pro Tem Huang wondered if they could move ahead with this project pending a
discussion with staff and the applicant to come up with a resolution prior to the City Council
meeting. -
Ms. Butler suggested the developer get someone to go out there for a quote. She thought that
hopefully they could come up with a figure. She hoped they would have a definite figure by the
time this goes to City Council.
Mr. Deitsch said the condition is worded in such a way that it places the responsibility on the
developer to come up with a proposal. If their objective is to preserve the condition and meet the
Anoakia — CC Report
Arcadia City Planning Commission 12 December 7, 1999
Page 122
mitigation measure described in the EIR, then the condition is worded appropriately for the
Planning Commission to recommend to the City Council. The City Council may change it if
additional information becomes available. The City needs to be able to defend the EIR an the
mitigation measures in terms of having met all matters and issues addressed in the EIR. I they
cannot defend that then the City and the developer would have not succeeded because there
could be a successful challenge.
Ms. Butler said they would continue to work with the applicant. She suggested that the P1 nning
Commission recommend approval to the City Council with the proviso that the Planning
Commission would like staff to work with the developer on the wording of condition 12.
Commissioner Murphy wondered who would pick up the cost between what amount is agreed
upon and what it actually costs to relocate?
In response to a question by Commissioner Murphy, Mr. Elliott responded that the 90-d.y time
frame was consistent with the AMC for removal of items. It seems that it is a significant amount
•
of time to remove a room off of a building. They felt that 3-months is plenty of time.
Commissioner Murphy asked if they could agree on milestones?
Mr. Elliott responded that that is how it was negotiated.
Commissioner Murphy asked that the developer provide a copy of the Phase I Environmental

Dear Commissioners: •
•
.1 am writing on behalf of the Los Angeles Conservancy to respond to the Final
Environmental Impact Report(FIR)for the proposed Anoakia Residential Development.
The Los Angeles Conservancy is the largest local historic preservation organization in the •
nation, representing over 6,500 members from throughout Southern California.
As explained below, the Conservancy is requesting the addition of two additional
mitigation measures to the FElIt:
1) The applicant shall pay for the relocation of the main.residence to the Arboretum of
Los Angeles County or another suitable site within the City of Arcadia;
2) The City of Arcadia shall,within 18 months, complete an historic resources survey
and create a designation process for local historic landmarks.
•
The Conservancy appreciates that the Elk consultants and the City took our organization's
comments on the draft EIR seriously and prepared an analysis on the potential rehabilitation
costs for the Anoakia residence. While the Conservancy believes that several of the cost
figures seem significantly inflated, we do, reluctantly,concur that, based on the information
provided,the on-site rehabilitation of Anoakia appears economically infeasible ut present..
However,that conclusion does not relieve the City and the applicant from developing more
meaningful mitigation measures, to help compensate for the loss of one of Arcadia's few •
identified historic resources. As we previously mentioned in our response to the DRTR,the
City of Arcadia's General Plan identifies only seven historic resources,three of which are
now located at the Arboretum. With two of the others (Santa Anita Park and Santa Anita
Assembly Center) now in serious jeopardy, and with Anoakia proposed for demolition,the
current City government may create an Arcadia legacy that would leave just a water ditch in
the National Forest Service Center filled with domestic refuse from the 1920s as the only
remaining historic resource outside the Arboretum's gates.
• Anoakia — CC Report
December 7, 1999
Page 125
Anoakia FEIR
Page 2
Typically, the Los Angeles Conservancy opposes relocation of historic resources, in part
because historic buildings gain much of their significance within their historic context.. Only
in:situations where relocation is truly a last resort, in order to avoid complete demolition, is
such a solution appropriate. The Conservancy believes that this is one of those situations.
The cost of relocating one of Arcadia's most important historic landmarks represents only a
small percentage of the project's revenues, and should be a required mitigation measure.
These 31 new homes of 4,800 to 5,600 sq. ft. in a gated community will likely sell for
$700,000 to$1 million, making the overall project worth approximately $20 to $30 million.
The relocation would allow the County Arboretum,as well as local preservation
organizations, to formulate an appropriate rehabilitation project or interpretive program ti)r
the Anoakia residence.
In addition to requiring relocation of this particular historic resource, the loss or relocation o
Anoakia,coupled with recent events and proposed alteration of Santa Anita racetrack,
highlight the need for the Planning Commission and City Council to develop more
comprehensive historic preservation policies for the city. The Conservancy'understands that
a new City redevelopment project may threaten additional,buildings with historic
significance,
Unlike almost all of your neighbors, including Pasadena, South Pasadena and even Los
Angeles, the City of Arcadia lacks a City process to designate local landmarks or local
historic districts. It is important to point out that such designations do not prevent any
alterations to historic buildings or seek to create museum pieces out of private property: the
merely create a process by which proposed alterations and demolitions can be appropriately
reviewed.
The Conservancy therefore requests, as an additional mitigation measure, that the Planning
Commission direct staff to initiate a comprehensive historic resources survey of Arcadia an.
also create a local landmark designation process, within the next 18 months. Only through
the creation of such a process can Arcadia—one of the most historic and beautiful cities in
Los Angeles County safeguard its heritage for future generations. The Los Angeles
Conservancy itself is willing to provide advice and guidance to the Commission, Council a d
City staff in crafting meaningful historic preservation policies.
Thank you for your consideration.

Arcadia, California 91066 ,
Attention: Donna L. Butler
Dear Ms. Butler: •
We are responding to your notice for conditional use permit 99-004, Anoakia Property. We
live approximately I '/z blocks from the area that will be the subject of a major redevelopment.
We wish to make the following comments and observations.
(1) Based on comparable housing in the area, the lots should be no less than one
half acre.
-(2) We are concerned about the numbers of Oak Trees that will be removed, and the
possible aesthetic effect resulting from such action.
(3) Due to road congestion and traffic patterns, we are not sure that adequate
consideration has been given to additional construction trucks, vehicles, noise
and dust.
•
We have been property owners in Arcadia for over thirty years. Our concern is to keep
Arcadia a true "Community of Homes". During this process we will be closely monitoring the
situation to make sure actual events correspond to stated plans and approvals.
We have no objection in your providing a copy of this correspondence to The Keith
Companies.
Sincerely,
SteaVi&L,St . `Ahde.s.

RE: Development of Anoakia property
Dear Ms Butler:
We, the residents of Anoakia Street,would like to. thank you
for your interest and your diligent work on the above project.
We do have some serious concerns that will particularly affect
our street and we trust they can be resolved:
1 . The proposed service entrance on Anoakia street will be .
a nuisance to us and will turn our street into a service
alley. We believe Foothill will be a better alternative.
2 . Under the present plot plan the south side of Anoakia
will remain in its present condition. Currently, this
area is cleaned sporadically and is typically full of
weeds , bear bottles , other trash and the nesting groun
for rats and other vermins . This area must be fully
landscaped, irrigated and maintained weekly like the
front lawn of the proposed houses.
3 . Because of the lack of homes on the south side of Anoakia,
for years there has been questionable to illegal activity
on the street resulting in the involvement of the police
department and other emergency vehicles. This problem can
be resolved if the impression was given that this is a
private street. We propose the erection of two massive
colums at the beginning of Anoakia Lane,-: at Baldwin Ave. ,
one resting on the southeast corner of 705 Anoakia and the
other on the southwest corner of the Anoakia property with
a sign attached to it: ANOAKIA LANE-- -
4 . The ideal project would have homes fronting the south side
of Anoakia ' Lane and be a part of the Santa Anita Oaks
Association.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Sincerely yours ,
The Property owners of Anoakia Lane

RE: Report and Recommendation to Approve the 1998-99 Redevelopment
Agency Annual Report to the State Controller and the State Housing and
Community Development Department
Summary
The California Redevelopment Law requires the preparation of an annual report on an
Agency's financial transactions, including an audit, and a detailed report on the
Agency's activities in low/moderate income housing for the previous fiscal year (1998-
99). The report is to be forwarded by the Agency to the legislative body (City Council)
for review and transmittal to the State Controller prior to December 31, 1999.
Staff recommends approval of the 1998-99 Annual Report by the City Council and
authorization to transmit the report to the State Controller.
Discussion
The Agency annually submits a detailed report on the status of the Agency's previous
year's finances on forms provided by the State Controller. This year's report, as in
previous years, has been prepared by the Agency's audit firm, Lance Soil Lunghard
(LSL).
The housing component of the Annual Report has been prepared by both LSL (financial
section) and the staff (housing projects/programs).
Financial Impact.
The report must be submitted to the State by December 31, 1999, to avoid financial
penalty of $10,000.

Summary: Arcadia Redevelopment Projects, Programs, and Activities
FY 1998-99 — Central Project Area
(for State Controller's Report)
Northside Project - Parcel D
Pursuant to a February 18, 1987 Disposition and Development Agreement (DDA), the
120-room 3-story Extended Stay America hotel was completed and fully opened in June
1998.
Pursuant to a December 16, 1997 DDA, the 18,000-sq. ft. ICD/Heatflex industrial office
building started construction in February 1999 and finished construction in November
1999.
Northwest Project - Parcel E
The Agency has been working with the land owner for several years. In August 1999,
the Agency prepared and forwarded a draft DDA for a proposed 38,600-sq. ft.
development consisting of two 19,800-sq. ft. 3-story office buildings above subterranean
parking. This work will continue in FY99-00.
Northwest Corner Project

story, 120-room Hilton Garden Inn began construction in June 1999 and opened on
October 1999. The 84-room 4-story Spring Hill Suites began construction in February
1999 and opened in November 1999.
REI Project
Pursuant to a December 1, 1998, DDA Recreation Equipment, Inc. (REI), of Seattle,
Washington, opened their 25,000-sq. ft. retail store in April 1999. They are currently

Downtown 2000 Business Incentive Program
• Commercial Façade Rehab Program — Five commercial building facades were
completed for a total rebate of$111,000.
• Special Events —The Agency contributed $15,000 to the downtown Arcadia
Business Association Farmer's Market while it operated from April 1998 to April
1999 on Saturday mornings on south First Avenue.
• Business Attractions —The Agency paid $5,000 as seed money for the Greater San
Gabriel Valley Community Development Corporation (CDC). The CDC's first "micro-
loan" in spring 1999 was to a downtown Arcadia business.
• Accessways — The Agency required a new restaurant (Matt Denny's) to provide a
public accessway through their patio from Parking District One to Huntington Drive.
• Downtown Marketing —The Agency prepared two Lease Rate Surveys of available
for sale/for lease commercial/industrial properties in Arcadia. The Agency also
prepared a Business Fact Book and a new Marketing Brochure with informational
inserts for dissemination to area brokers and developers.
Redevelopment Plan Amendment
The Agency prepared a proposed amendment reauthorizing the power of eminent
domain for 12 years or until June 30, 2010. Agency staff drafted the Project Area
Committee rules, conducted the PAC Election and meetings, and scheduled the Public
Hearings. The City Council adopted Ordinance 2102 on April 7, 1999.
Possible South Arcadia Project Area Amendment
In June 1999, the Agency engaged a redevelopment consultant to analyze the feasibility
of establishing a project amendment area in the South Arcadia business district. This
work will continue into FY99-00.
Foulger Ford Site
During 1998-1999, the Agency and City staff worked with the owner's representative on
a possible food store/retail store development and on an 8 -story office/health club
development. The zoning height limit was established at 6 stories or 65 feet. This work
will continue in FY99-00.
Design Reviews — (Major)

for the rehab of Denny's including the removal of the old Van de Kamp Bakery's
windmill. Subsequent to the Agency's action, Denny's agreed to keep the windmill
at the "request" of the Los Angeles Conservancy, a preservationist group.
Administrative
• The Agency repaid $2.2 million of the City's $6.6 million loan using the land sale
proceeds from the sale of the Northwest Corner site.
• The Agency established and updated an Economic Development/Redevelopment
section on the City's web page.
• Agency staff assisted on other significant City projects during the program year; e.g.,
proposed Mall expansion, proposed Santa Anita Park project, 3 Par Gold Course
Lease, Historical Museum project and police station/bond issue project.

Excess Surplus
Pursuant to Section 33080.7,report any excess surplus funds(as defined in Section 33334.12(0)(1)). Excess surplus exists for
the current reporting year if the Adjusted Balance(Schedule HCD-C,Page 3 of 5, line item 9b.(3)) of your agency's 1997/98
reporting forms exceeds the greater of$1,000,000 or the aggregate amount of tax increments deposited into the Fund during
the prior four fiscal years. (See the table in Schedule HCD-C, Page 4 of 8, line 8a., for this reporting year).
"Encumber"means committing funds pursuant to a legally enforceable contract or agreement for expenditure for authorized
redevelopment housing activities (Section 33334.12(g)(2)). In accordance with Section 33334.12(g)(3)(A) and(B),the
unencumbered balance may be adjusted to account for any remaining revenue added from debt proceeds and the difference
between the sales price of land for affordable housing and its fair market value.

Tax Increment Revenues:
The only amount(s)to be excluded as Tax Increment Revenue are any amounts passed through to other local taxing
agencies pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 33676. Tax Increment Revenue set-aside in the Low and
Moderate Income Housing Fund will be washed in the above calculation, and therefor omitted from Available
Revenues at year end.
Item 4. above:
This represents any payments from any source other than Tax Increment OR available revenues. For instance, an
agency funds a project with a bond issue. The previous SOI included a Disposition Development Agreement (DDA)
which was fully satisfied with these bond proceeds. The DDA would be shown on the Reconciliation Statement
as fully repaid under the"other"column(Col E), but with funds that were neither Tax Increment,nor"Available Revenues"
as defined. The amounts used to satisfy this DDA would be included on line 4 above in order to accurately
determine ending"Available Revenues".

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
We have audited the general purpose financial statements of the Arcadia
Redevelopment Agency, component unit of the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency as of and
mod
for the year ended June 30, 1999 as listed in the accompanying table of contents. These
general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the Agency's management.
• Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements
based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose financial statements. An audit also
includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
141 management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the general purpose financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Arcadia Redevelopment
IIN Agency at June 30, 1999, and the results of its operations for the year then ended in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
The required supplementary information is not a required part of the basic
financial statements but is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. We
have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquires of
management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the
supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no
opinion on it. In addition, we do not provide assurance that the Arcadia Redevelopment
Agency is or will become year 2000 compliant, that the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency's
year 2000 remediation efforts will be successful in whole or in part or that parties with which
114 the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency conducts business will be year 2000 compliant.

Redevelopment Agency. Such information has been subjected to the auditing the Arcadia
subjected g procedures
applied in the audit of the general purpose financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
presented in all material respects in relation to the general purpose financial statements
taken as a whole.

Report on Compliance and on Internal Control over.Financial Reporting
€_I Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance
1.t With Government Auditing Standards
1 We have audited the financial statements of Arcadia Redevelopment Agency
as of and for the year ended June 30, 1999, and have issued our report thereon dated
September 23, 1999. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted
1 auditing standards and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in
!II Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States.
!ill: Compliance
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements of the Arcadia.Redevelopment Agency are free of material misstatements, we
performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and
grants, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the
PINdetermination of financial statement amounts. Such provisions included those provisions
of laws and regulations identified in the Guidelines for Compliance Audits of California
rill Redevelopment Agencies, issued by the State Controller and as interpreted in the
Suggested Auditing Procedures for Accomplishing Compliance Audits of California
Redevelopment Agencies, issued by the Governmental Accounting and Auditing
rili Committee of the California Society of Certified Public Accountants. However, providing
an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and,
accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no
rill instances of noncompliance that are required to be reported under Government Auditing
Standards.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In tannin and e
P 9 performing our audit, we considered the Arcadia
Redevelopment Agency's internal control over financial reporting in order to determine our
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements
and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting. Our
consideration of the internal control over financial reporting would not necessarily disclose
all matters in the internal control over financial reporting that might be material weaknesses.
A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the
internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that
misstatements in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements
being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the
normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the
internal control over financial reporting and its operation that we consider to be material
weaknesses. We noted other matters involving internal control over financial reporting that
we have reported to the management of Arcadia Redevelopment Agency in a separate
letter dated September 23, 1999.
This report is intended for the information f rmation of the Audit committee,
management and the State Controller. However, this report is a matter of public record
and its distribution is not limited.

Note 1: Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
b. Description of Funds
Fund Accounting Systems
Governmental accounting systems are organized and operated on a fund basis. A fund is defined as an independent fiscal and accounting
entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources, together with all related liabilities and residual
equities or balances,and changes therein,which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives
in accordance with special regulations, restrictions or limitations.
Type of Funds
Governmental Fund Types
Debt Service Funds-to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of, interest and principal on general long-term
debt.
Capital Projects Funds-to account for financial resources segregated for the acquisition of major capital facilities.
Account Group •
Long-Term Liabilities
Long-term liabilities expected to be financed from governmental funds are accounted for in the General Long-Term Debt Account
Group, not in the governmental funds. Noncurrent portions of long-term receivables due to governmental funds are reported on
their balance sheets, in spite of their spending measurement focus. Special reporting treatments are used to indicate, however,that
they should not be considered "available spendable resources", since they do not represent net current assets. Recognition of
governmental fund type revenues represented by noncurrent receivables is deferred until they become current receivables.
Noncurrent portions of long-term loans receivable, if any, are offset by fund balance reserve accounts.
Because of their spending measurement focus, expenditure recognition for governmental fund types does not include amounts
represented by noncurrent liabilities. Since they do not affect net current assets, such long-term amounts are not recognized as
governmental fund type expenditures or fund liabilities. They are instead reported as liabilities in the General Long-Term Debt ,
Account Group.

c. Basis of Accounting .
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements.
Specifically, it relates to the timing of the measurements made regardless of the nature of the measurement. I N.
All governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting. Their revenues are recognized when they become rY.
measurable and available as net current assets. Revenues considered susceptible to accrual in those funds wherein revenue is recognized on
*
a modified accrual basis is as follows: property and sales taxes and revenue from the use of money and property are all considered measurable t
and are recognized as revenue on a modified accrual basis; other items are, for the most part, not susceptible to accrual and consequently are �`';
not recorded until received.
+a
Property tax increment revenue is recognized on the basis of NCGA Interpretation No. 3; (adopted by GASB)that is, in the fiscal year for which ,,,
the taxes have been levied providing they become available. Available means then due, or past due and receivable within the current period and
collected within the current period or expected to be collected soon enough thereafter(not to exceed 60 days)to be used to pay liabilities of the
current period. The County of Los Angeles collects property taxes for the Agency. Tax liens attach annually as of 12:01 A.M. on the first day ';,'
in March preceding the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. The tax levy covers the fiscal period July 1st to June 30th. All secured personal
5.
property taxes and one-half of the taxes on real property are due November 1st; the second installment is due February 1st. All taxes are
delinquent,if unpaid, on December 10th and April 10th respectively. Unsecured personal property taxes become due on the first of March each
year and are delinquent, if unpaid, on August 31st. 1
tt
Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred; principal and ';g,
interest on general long-term debt is recognized when due.
d. Budgetary Data ze''
s
General Budget Policies
The Board approves each year's budget submitted by the Director prior to the beginning of the new fiscal year. Public hearings are conducted ,,
prior to its adoption by the Board. Supplemental appropriations,where required during the period are also approved by the Board. In most
cases, expenditures may not exceed appropriations at the department level. At fiscal year-end all operating budget appropriations lapse. '''d
Budgets for governmental funds are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). 1.,

e. Other Accounting Policies
Total Columns on Combined Statements
"Memorandum Only"captions on combined statements-total columns mean that totals are presented for overview informational purposes
only and that they do not fairly present financial position or results of operations for the governmental unit as a whole in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of these totals.
Investments in Land Held for Resale
The Agency's investment in land held for resale is stated at cost. If a disposition and development agreement has been entered into
specifying a lower value for the land then the difference between cost and this value has been reflected as an allowance for decline in
value of land held. Thus, the net realizable value of land held enters total assets.
II. DETAIL NOTES ON FUNDS AND ACCOUNT GROUPS
Note 2: Cash and Investments
The Agency adopted GASB Statement No. 31, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External Investment Pools,
as of July 1, 1997. GASB Statement No. 31 establishes fair value standards for investments in participating interest earning investment contracts,
external investment pools, equity securities, option contracts, stock warrants and stock rights that have readily determinable fair values.
Accordingly, the Agency reports its investments at fair value in the balance sheet. All investment income, including changes in the fair value of
investments, is recognized as revenue in the operating statement.
Cash and investments at June 30, 1999 consisted of the following:
Pooled Cash $ 3,630,529
Cash and Investment with Fiscal Agent 378,145
Total Cash and Investments $ 4,008,674
The Agency follows the practice of pooling cash and investments with the City of Arcadia of all funds except for funds required to be held by
outside fiscal agents under the provisions of bond indentures.
Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments Is allocated monthly by the City of Arcadia to the various funds based on the month-end
cash balances. Interest income from cash and investment with fiscal agent is credited directly to the related fund.

III. OTHER DISCLOSURES
Note 6: Low and Moderate Housing Set-Aside
For fiscal year 1986-87 through 1995-96, the Agency has adopted a resolution declaring that the Agency is unable to set-aside 20% or less of
•
its tax increment for low and moderate income housing due to existing Agency obligations. These findings have been made in accordance with
the Health and Safety Code and copies have been sent to the State Department of Housing and Community Development. Once the existing
obligations have been satisfied, amounts will have to be set-aside from available tax increment revenues. The cumulative deficit created in the
low and moderate housing fund through June 30, 1999 amounts to$4,045,715, which has been reflected as an advance between the debt service
and low and moderate housing funds.
Note 7: Allowance for Decline in Value
•
A Disposition and Development Agreement between the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency and the Arcadia Steakhouse, L.P., was approved on •
June 20, 1995. This permitted the construction and operation of a 6,392 square foot Outback Steakhouse.
Construction began in July, 1995 and the restaurant was opened in November, 1995. During the initial five (5) year period after the restaurant
opens for business, Outback will lease the site from the Agency for$45,000 annually. $40,000 of this annual amount will be applied as credit
to the final sale price ($600,000) to be paid at the start of year six. The balance owed the Agency at that time will be approximately $400,000.
The cost of the above site was carried on the Agency's book as land held for resale. Due to the execution of the Disposition and Development
Agreement, the cost was written down to the final sale price of$600,000. The amount written down amounts to $1,298,000 and is reported as
a loss on sale of land held and offset the land held for resale on the balance sheet on an allowance account. Annually, $40,000 of lease payment
will also be applied to this allowance account.

REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
(Unaudited)
EVALUATION OF THE YEAR 2000 ISSUE
The City of Arcadia, of which the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency is a component unit, is in the process of evaluating its computer programming code, computer
equipment and other electronic systems and equipment(including equipment containing embedded chips) to ascertain which of these might be impacted by a
failure to properly recognize and process transactions dated on or after the year 2000. In addition, certain dates in calendar year 1999 may
because some programs and embedded chips were coded to read a date of"99"or"999"to mean something other than a date(e.g. "end of file"etc.) which might
also prevent the proper processing of data. As of June 30, 1999, there is no unexpended portion of contracts entered into by the City to address year 2000 issues
for computer systems and other electronic equipment, as the City has fairly recently installed new accounting software. Additional amounts may be expended
for the City's year 2000 assessment, implementation and testing activities, as well as amounts that may need to be expended after January 1, 2000 to correct
problems not previously detected and corrected. Because of the unprecedented nature of the year 2000 issue, it is not possible to provide assurances that the
City has or will achieve complete year 2000 compliance, even after completing all planned year 2000 corrective actions and related testing. Nor can the City
determine the effect, if any, on City operations should entities external to the City(other governments,significant vendors, suppliers,service providers, customers,
taxpayers, businesses, etc.) fail to address year 2000 issues in a timely manner. The scope of an audit does not include an evaluation of the adequacy of
management's plans with respect to this issue. Equipment and systems considered by management to be critical to conducting operations are discussed in the
following paragraph:
The City is in the remediation stage of updating its systems to address year 2000 issues. The City's major critical system is the Finance Department's
system. Most of the Finance Department's new hardware has been installed, including the network server. The majority of the software was installed
in recent years and is thought to address the year 2000 issue. The completion of these stages is not a guarantee that systems and equipment will be
year 2000 compliant.

iiiiiii.iiii arcadia redevelopment agency
DATE: December 7, 1999
TO: City Council
Arcadia Redevelopment Agency
FROM: QDon Penman, Deputy Executive Director
li By: Pete Kinnahan, Economic Development Administrator
RE: Report and Recommendation to adopt: 1) City Council Resolution No.
6144; a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Arcadia Adopting
Revised Rules and Regulations for the Implementation of the California
Relocation Assistance Law and Real Property Acquisition Guidelines,
and; 2) Resolution No. ARA 182; a Resolution of the Arcadia
Redevelopment Agency Adopting Revised Rules and Regulations for
the Implementation of the California Relocation Assistance Law and
Real Property Acquisition Guidelines
Summary
The State has passed legislation and the State Department of Housing and
Community Development (HCD) has adopted new regulations implementing
changes to State regulations on relocation.
The revised City of Arcadia and Arcadia Redevelopment Agency Rules and
Regulations attached to Resolutions No. 6144 and No. 182 were prepared with the
assistance of Pacific Relocation Consultants and have been reviewed and approved
by the City Attorney and Agency Special Counsel, Best Best and Krieger.
Staff recommends adoption of City Council Resolution No. 6144 and Agency
Resolution No. 182.
Background
The Agency's existing regulations were adopted in 1977 with amendments adopted
in 1986, 1989, and 1991. The City's were adopted in 1977.
State law on relocation was amended in 1990. However, the State Department of
Housing and Community Development (HCD) did not adopt regulations implement-
ing these changes until 1997. Further revisions were made in 1998 and recently in
1999. The amended Rules and Regulations attached to City Council Resolution No.
6144 and Agency Resolution No. 182 have been prepared by Pacific Relocation
Consultants (PRC) and reviewed by Agency Special Counsel Kevin Randolph of
Best Best and Krieger.

The major amendments to the law and Guidelines are:
- Increasing the rental housing payment from $4,000 for a 48-month period to
$5,250 for a 42-month period.
- Increasing the owner housing payment from $15,000 to $22,500.
- Adding a Business Reestablishment payment for small business and non-
profits, up to a maximum of$10,000.
- Providing more specific regulations governing Acquisition, preparations of
Relocation Plans, and Goodwill.
In the 1991 Amendment, the Arcadia Redevelopment Agency adopted a special
"Business Supplemental Payment" policy whereby eligible displaced businesses
could receive up to $10,000 above the previously mentioned statutory Business
Reestablishment payment. Under the State Guidelines, businesses often are not
fully compensated for all of their relocation costs due to the $10,000 ceiling.
Arcadia's policy (Section 707) would continue to permit such payments up to an
additional $10,000. The maximum payment under these rules would then be
$20,000.
This policy was suggested by the Agency's previous relocation consultant, Port and
Flor, and is recommended also by Pacific Relocation Consultants (PRC) and staff.
Relocation can be a difficult process for any displacee, but it can be made more
onerous if the businessperson will be required to make significant out-of-pocket
expenses for which he or she may not be reimbursed. This often makes the
relocation process slower, and more adversarial. It encourages the displaced owner
to file a subsequent claim with the City or the Agency for additional compensation for
loss of goodwill. In the event of such a claim a city or redevelopment agency incurs
additional appraisal and legal costs and may have to pay significant amounts if, in
fact, there is economic loss to the business due to loss of goodwill. Approval of the
continuing use of the Business Supplemental Policy by both the City and the Agency
is therefore recommended.
A representative from PRC will be at the meeting to respond to questions.
Environmental Impact
Adoption of Relocation Regulations is exempt from CEQA.
Fiscal Impact
There is no imminent impact. There would be possible additional relocation costs for
Business Supplemental payments if this policy is approved by the City and the
Redevelopment Agency. Other fiscal impacts are mandated by State law and could
only be quantified on a case-by-case basis if future City or Agency projects cause
relocation.

A replacement dwelling is within the financial means of a displaced person also if the
purchase price of the dwelling including related increased interest costs and other
reasonable expenses (as described in §604) does not exceed the total of the amount
of just compensation provided for the dwelling acquired and the replacement housing

The Displacing Agency shall inspect each replacement dwelling prior to the time a displaced
resident occupies it. The Displacing Agency shall not induce or encourage a displaced resident to
acquire a dwelling which does not satisfy the standards of a comparable replacement dwelling.
If a displaced resident occupies a dwelling unit to which he or she is referred by the Displacing
Agency and the dwelling unit does not satisfy the standard of a comparable replacement dwelling,
the Displacing Agency shall offer to locate a comparable replacement dwelling for the displaced
resident and to pay again all moving and related expenses.
If a displaced resident chooses not to move from a substandard dwelling unit he or she has
occupied, the displaced resident shall nevertheless be eligible to receive relocation assistance and
payments if one of the following conditions is met:

Agency's referral or failure to refer, when the substandard dwelling unit is brought
into compliance with the decent, safe and sanitary standard.
- 25 -
In the event the condition is met in paragraph 3, any replacement housing payment shall be
limited to the amount that would be provided in connection with the purchase of a similar,
comparable replacement dwelling, or the sum of the actual costs of acquisition(including incidental

IV. [§ 400] ASSURANCE OF COMPARABLE REPLACEMENT DWELLINGS;
LAST RESORT HOUSING
A. [§ 401] Survey and Analysis of Available Comparable Replacement Dwellings
1. [§ 402] Requirement Generally
To confirm the availability of comparable replacement dwellings, the Displacing Agency,
within 60 days of the initiation of negotiations to acquire a parcel of real property, shall initiate a
survey of available comparable replacement dwellings. If a recent survey that provides the required
information is not available, the Displacing Agency shall conduct a survey of the housing market.
If a recent survey is available, but it does not reflect more recent, significant changes in housing
market conditions, the survey shall be updated or it shall not be relied upon. The survey shall be
updated at least annually. The survey area shall be reasonably related to the displacement area and
to the needs and preferences of the persons to be displaced. The survey area shall have relevant
characteristics specified for comparable replacement dwellings which equal or exceed those of the
neighborhood from which persons are to be displaced.
2. [§ 403] Determining Number of Comparable Replacement Dwellings
Only dwelling units which satisfy the standards of comparable replacement dwellings,including
the locational criteria, shall be counted as a relocation resource. The following types of dwellings
shall be included only if the applicable criteria are met:
Uncompleted new construction or rehabilitation shall only be counted toward the
gross number of comparable replacement dwellings if there is a substantial likelihood that the
dwelling units will be available when needed and at housing prices or rental costs within the
financial means of the prospective occupants.
a. Publicly subsidized housing, as defined pursuant to Article XXXIV of the
California Constitution and§37000 through§37002 of the California Health and
Safety Code, shall only be counted toward the gross number of comparable
replacement dwellings if it reasonably can be established that:
(1) The dwelling units will be available when needed;
(2) The governmental body providing the subsidy has made, in writing, a
reasonably binding commitment of assistance;
(3) The dwelling units have been inspected and determined to be decent, safe
and sanitary and the income ceilings, rent ranges and age restrictions, if
any, have been considered;
- 27 -
(4) The number of dwelling units available in the City exceeds the number of
households in need of the units. This requirement can be waived by the
Department if the Displacing Agency can establish that such units will be
replaced within two years. To establish that last resort housing will be
developed as required, the Displacing Agency must have site control with
permissive zoning, preliminary plans and conditional commitments for
subsidy and financing, or the equivalent, and must identify ownership;
(5) With respect to uncompleted new construction or rehabilitation, such
publicly subsidized dwelling units are being subsidized to provide
relocation resources.
b. The gross number of comparable replacement dwellings in the survey area shall
be discounted to reflect concurrent displacement and the extent to which
turnover is represented.Concurrent displacement by the federal government and
its agencies, including federally assisted projects, as well as displacement by
other public entities shall be taken into account.
3. [§ 404] Written Analysis
Based on the survey, a written analysis of replacement dwelling needs shall be prepared that
includes:
a. Separate information concerning home ownership and rental units;
b. The number of units identified by cost for each size category;
c. Needs of elderly and handicapped households shown separately, including
information on the number of such households requiring special facilities and
the nature of such facilities;
d. Description of the locational characteristics of the displacement area
neighborhoods corresponding to the requirements of comparable replacement
dwellings;
e. Information concerning proximity to present employment sources,medical and
recreational facilities, parks, community centers, shopping, transportation and
schools;
f. Information concerning proximity to other relevant needs and amenities.
- 28 -

4. [§ 405] Review of Survey Results
When more than fifteen(15)households will be displaced,the written analysis(i.e.,the results
of the survey of comparable replacement dwellings) shall be submitted for review to local housing,
development and planning agencies and shall be compared to other existing information on housing.
Notwithstanding the analysis of the results of the survey of comparable replacement dwellings,
if the demand for housing is such that there are no vacancies other than those permitted by turnover,
the Displacing Agency may proceed to displace residents from dwellings,but only to the extent that
the Displacing Agency obtains referrals of comparable replacement dwellings for such residents in
accordance with the provisions of§406.
5. [§ 406] Referrals of Replacement Dwellings
The Displacing Agency shall obtain at least three referrals of comparable replacement dwellings
for each displaced resident, provided that where the Displacing Agency determines that, due to
special circumstances three (3) is not a reasonable number, fewer than three (3) referrals may be
deemed sufficient. Such referrals shall be in writing, in a language understood by the displaced
resident.
The Displacing Agency's obligation to obtain a comparable replacement dwelling for any
displaced resident shall be deemed to be satisfied if such resident is offered and refuses, without
justification,the number of specifically identified comparable replacement dwellings provided for
in this section and which satisfy the criteria set forth in §211.
B. [§ 407] Determination of Need for Last Resort Housing; Replacement Housing Plan
If the Director of the Displacing Agency, on the basis of data derived from the replacement
dwelling survey and analysis, determines that comparable replacement dwellings will not be
available,the Director shall determine whether to modify,suspend,or terminate the project causing
the displacement or to use the Displacing Agency's funds or the funds authorized for the project to
provide such necessary comparable replacement housing. If the Director determines that the
Displacing Agency's funds or funds authorized for the project shall be used to insure the availability
of comparable replacement housing (which housing is, in this situation, commonly referred to as
"last resort housing"), the Displacing Agency shall prepare a "replacement housing plan" that
provides for a sufficient number of last resort housing units.
1. [§ 408] Replacement Housing Plan
If a Replacement Housing Plan is required, it shall address the following issues:
a. How, when and where the housing will be provided;
- 29 -
b. How the housing will be financed and the amount of funds to be allocated to
such housing;
c. The prices at which the housing will be rented or sold to the families and
individuals to be displaced;
d. The arrangements for housing management and social services, as appropriate;
e. The suitability of the location and environmental impact of the proposed
housing;

rehoused;
g. The disposition of proceeds from rental, sale, or resale of such housing;
h. Any referendum or zoning requirements, which present an obstacle, shall be
addressed.
2. [§ 409] Replacement Housing Committee
a. If the need for last resort housing exceeds 25 units,the Displacing Agency shall
establish a "Replacement Housing Committee" which will consult with and
provide advice and assistance to the Displacing Agency in the development of
the replacement housing plan. The Committee should include appointed
representatives of the Displacing Agency and state and local agencies
knowledgeable regarding housing in the area, including but not limited to the
local housing authority. In addition, the Committee should include
representatives of other appropriate groups (for example, local and area wide
planning agencies) and private groups knowledgeable regarding housing and
the problems of housing discrimination.
b. The Replacement Housing Committee shall include representatives of the
residents to be displaced. These representatives may be appointed by the
Displacing Agency or elected by the residents, as the residents wish. Resident
representatives shall, at a minimum, constitute one-third of the Committee
membership. Votes shall be allocated so that the total votes of resident
representatives shall equal one-half of the total votes of the Committee
membership.
c. The Replacement Housing Plan must be approved by the vote of a simple
majority of the Replacement Housing Committee membership. In the event the
- 30 -
Committee fails to approve the plan, the City Council may substitute its
approval.
d. The Displacing Agency may consult or contract with the Department, a local
housing authority, or other agency or organization having experience in the
administration or conduct of housing programs to provide technical assistance
and advice in the development of the replacement housing plan.
3. [§ 410] Submission of Plan for Comment
The Displacing Agency shall submit the Replacement Housing Plan and all significant
amendments to the local housing and planning agencies for comment and to assure that the plan
accurately reflects housing conditions and needs in the relocation area. Reviewing agencies
shall have 30 calender days following receipt of the plan to prepare their comments. Copies
of all comments received shall be forwarded to the committee and available to all interested
persons.
General notice of the plan shall be provided. Notice shall be designed to reach the
residents of the relocation area, shall be in accordance with the provisions of§303 and §307,
and shall be provided 30 days prior to submission to the Replacement Housing Committee, or
the City Council for approval.

whether or not:
a. The Replacement Housing Plan is feasible.
b. The Replacement Housing Plan complies with applicable environmental
standards and procedures.
c. The Replacement Housing Plan is compatible with the local general plan and
housing element and the area wide housing plan or strategy.
If any of the above determinations by the Displacing Agency is negative the Displacing
Agency shall revise the plan as necessary. Substantial modifications in the plan shall be re-
submitted for review and comment in accordance with §410. If necessary for timely
implementation of the plan or execution of the project,the Displacing Agency may shorten the
time allowed for review of modifications.

similar housing programs. Where several agencies are administering programs resulting in
residential displacement, opportunities shall be sought for joint development and financing to
aggregate resources in order to most efficiently provide last resort housing in sufficient quantity to
satisfy the aggregate needs of such programs.
6. [§ 413] Last Resort Housing Alternatives
a. Whenever.comparable replacement dwellings are not available, or are not
available within the monetary limits of §605 or §615, as appropriate, the

replacement dwelling. The payment shall not be made unless the dwelling
acquired by the Displacing Agency was encumbered by a bona fide mortgage
which was a valid lien on the dwelling for not less than 180 days prior to the
initiation of negotiations for acquisition of such dwelling. (This time
requirement may be modified in accordance with the provisions of§606b);
c. Reasonable expenses incurred by the displaced resident incident to the purchase
of the replacement dwelling,but not including prepaid expenses;
d. The cost of rehabilitating a dwelling which does not satisfy the decent,safe and
sanitary standard.
2. [§ 606] Eligibility
A displaced resident is eligible for a replacement housing payment if such person satisfies the
following conditions:
- 38 -
a. Is displaced from a dwelling that is acquired.
b. Has actually owned and occupied the dwelling from which he or she is
displaced as a permanent or customary and usual place of abode for not less than
180 days prior to the initiation of negotiations for acquisition of such dwelling.
If an owner satisfies all but the 180 day requirement and can establish to the
satisfaction of the Displacing Agency that he or she bought the dwelling with
the intention of making it his or her place of residence, that the move was not
motivated by a desire to receive relocation assistance and benefits, and that he
or she neither knew nor should have known that public acquisition was
intended, the Displacing Agency may reduce the requirement as necessary.
c. Purchases and occupies a replacement dwelling within one year subsequent to
the later of(i) the date on which he or she received final payment from the
Displacing Agency for all costs of the acquired dwelling, or (ii) the date the
Displacing Agency fulfills its obligation to make available at least one
comparable replacement dwelling to the Displaced Person. Where for reasons
beyond the control of the displaced resident completion of construction,
rehabilitation, or relocation of a replacement dwelling is delayed beyond the
date by which occupancy is required,the Displacing Agency shall determine the
date of occupancy to be the date the displaced resident enters into a contract for
such construction, rehabilitation, or relocation or for the purchase, upon
completion, of a dwelling to be constructed or rehabilitated, if, in fact the
displaced resident occupies the replacement dwelling when the construction or
rehabilitation is completed. Where for reasons of hardship or circumstances
beyond the control of the displaced resident,such person is unable to occupy the
replacement dwelling by the required date, the Displacing Agency may extend
the deadline in its sole discretion. No person otherwise eligible for payment,
shall be denied such eligibility as a result of being unable, because of a major
state or national disaster,to meet the occupancy requirements contained herein.
3. [§ 607] Computation of Replacement Housing Payment
a. [§ 608] Reasonable Cost of Comparable Replacement Dwelling
In determining the reasonable cost of a comparable replacement dwelling, the Displacing
Agency shall use one of the following methods:
(1) Comparative Method. On a case by case basis by determining the listing
price of dwellings which have been selected by the Displacing Agency and
which are most representative of the acquired dwelling unit and meet the
definition of a comparable replacement dwelling. Whenever possible the
listing price of at least three dwellings shall be considered.
- 39 -
(2) Schedule Method. Where the Displacing Agency determines the
comparative method is not feasible, it may establish a schedule of
reasonable acquisition costs for the various types of comparable
replacement dwellings. The Displacing Agency shall cooperate with other
entities causing displacement in the area to establish a uniform schedule.
The schedule shall be based on a current analysis of the market to
determine a reasonable cost for each type of dwelling to be purchased. In
large urban areas,the analysis may be confined to the sub-area from which
persons are displaced or may cover several different sub-areas; if they
satisfy or exceed the criteria for a comparable replacement dwelling. To
assure the greatest comparability of dwellings in any analysis,the analysis
shall be divided into classifications of the type of construction, number of
bedrooms, and price ranges.
(3) Alternative Method. Where the Displacing Agency determines that neither
the schedule, nor comparative method is feasible in a given situation, by
the use of another reasonable method selected by the Displacing Agency.
Whichever method is selected, the cost shall be updated to within three months of the date of
purchase of the replacement dwelling.
b. [§ 609] Increased Interest Cost
Increased interest cost shall be equal to the discounted present value of the difference between
the aggregate interest applicable to the amount of the principal of the mortgage on the acquired
dwelling over its remaining term at the time of acquisition, and other debt service costs, and the
aggregate interest paid on the mortgage on the replacement dwelling, and other debt service costs.
The term and amount of the mortgage on the replacement dwelling for the purposes of this section
shall be the lesser of the remaining term and amount of the mortgage on the acquired dwelling, or
the actual term and amount of the mortgage on the replacement dwelling. The amount of the debt
service cost with respect to the replacement dwelling shall be the lesser of the debt service cost based
on the cost required for a comparable replacement dwelling, or the debt service cost based on the
actual cost of the replacement dwelling.
Prepaid interest or "points" shall be considered in the determination of the aggregate interest.
In calculating the amount of compensation, increased interest cost shall be reduced to
discounted present value using the prevailing interest rate paid on savings deposits by commercial
banks in the general area in which the replacement dwelling is located.
- 40 -
c. [§ 610] Expense Incidental to the Purchase of the Replacement Dwelling
The replacement housing payment shall include the amount necessary to reimburse the
displaced resident for actual, reasonable costs incurred, incident to the purchase of the replacement
dwelling, including but not limited to the following:
(1) Reasonable legal, closing, and related costs including title search,
preparing conveyance contracts,notary fees, surveys,preparing drawings
or plans, and charges paid incident to recordation;
(2) Lender, FHA, VA or similar appraisal costs;
(3) FHA, VA, or similar application fee;
(4) Cost for certification of structural soundness;
(5) Credit report charges;
(6) Charge for owner's and mortgagee's evidence or assurance of title;
(7) Escrow agent's fee;
(8) Sales and transfer taxes.
Payment for any such expenses shall not exceed the amount attributable to the purchase of a
replacement dwelling. Such expenses shall be reasonable and legally required or customary within
the boundaries of the City.
Reimbursement shall not be made under the provisions of this section for any fee, cost,charge,
or expense which is determined to be a part of the debt service or finance charge under Title I of the
Truth in Lending Act and Regulation Z issued pursuant thereto by the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System. Any such sum should be considered in the determination of increased
interest cost.
4. [§ 611] Multi-Family Dwelling
In the case of a displaced homeowner who is required to move from a one-family unit of a
multi-family building which he or she owns,the replacement housing payment shall be based on the
cost of a comparable one-family unit in a,multi-family building of approximately the same density
or if that is not available in a building of the next less density, or, if a comparable one-family unit
in such a multi-family building is not available,the cost of any otherwise comparable single-family
structure.
5. [§ 612] Homeowner Retention of Dwelling
If a displaced homeowner elects to retain, move, and occupy his or her dwelling, the amount
payable as the replacement housing payment is the difference between the acquisition price of the
acquired property and the sum of the moving and restoration expenses,the cost of correcting decent,
safe, and sanitary deficiencies,if any, and the actual purchase price of a comparable relocation site.
- 41 -
The payment shall not exceed the amount of the replacement housing payment to which the
homeowner would otherwise be entitled.
6. [§ 613] Lease of Condominium
•
For the purpose of§604 through §612, the leasing of a condominium for a 99-year period, or
for a term which exceeds the life expectancy of the displaced resident as determined by the most
recent life tables in Vital Statistics of the United States, as published by the Public Health Service
of the Department of Health,Education and Welfare or successor acceptable index,shall be deemed
a purchase of the condominium.
E. [§ 614] Replacement Housing Payments for Tenants and Certain Others

replacement dwelling for a period not to exceed 42 months; or
b. An amount necessary to enable such person to make a downpayment on the
purchase of a decent, safe and sanitary replacement dwelling (including
incidental expenses described in §610).
2. [§ 616] Eligibility
A displaced resident is eligible for a replacement housing payment if such person satisfied the
following conditions:
a. Has actually and lawfully occupied the dwelling from which he or she is
displaced for a period of not less than 90 days prior to the initiation of
negotiations for acquisition of such dwelling. If a resident satisfies all but the
90-day requirement and can establish to the satisfaction of the Displacing
Agency that he or she occupied the dwelling with the intention of making it his
or her place of residence,that the move was not motivated by a desire to receive
relocation assistance and benefits, and that he or she neither knew nor should
have known that public acquisition was intended, the Displacing Agency may
reduce the requirements as necessary.
b. Is not eligible to receive a replacement housing payment for homeowners or
elects not to receive such payment. Where the displaced resident is the
owner-occupant of the dwelling for at least 90 days but not more than 180 days
-42 -
immediately prior to the initiation of negotiations for the acquisition of the
dwelling, the payment made under §615b shall not exceed the amount of
payment to which the resident would be entitled under §605.
c. The displaced resident shall within one year from the date of displacement rent
or purchase(as the case may be)and occupy a replacement dwelling. Where for
reasons beyond the control of the displaced resident,completion of construction,
rehabilitation, or relocation of a replacement dwelling is delayed beyond the
date by which occupancy is required,the Displacing Agency shall determine the
date of occupancy to be the date the displaced resident enters into a contract for
such construction, rehabilitation, or relocation or for rental or purchase, upon
completion, of a dwelling to be constructed or rehabilitated, if, in fact, the
displaced person occupies the replacement dwelling when the construction or
rehabilitation is completed. Where for reasons of hardship or circumstances
beyond the control of the displaced resident,such person is unable to occupy the
replacement dwelling by the required date,the Displacing Agency may extend
the deadline in its sole discretion. No person otherwise eligible for payment,
shall be denied such eligibility as a result of his or her being unable,because of
a major state or national disaster,to meet the occupancy requirements contained
herein.
3. [§ 617] Computation of Replacement Housing Payment
a. [§ 618] Rent Differential Payment
The amount of payment necessary for a displaced resident to lease or rent a comparable
replacement dwelling shall be computed by subtracting forty-two (42)times the base monthly
rental of the displaced resident, from forty-two (42)times the monthly rental for a comparable
replacement dwelling; provided, that in no case may such amount exceed the difference
between forty-two (42) times the base monthly rental and forty-two (42) times the monthly
rental actually required for the replacement dwelling occupied by the displaced resident.
(1) Base Monthly Rental. The base monthly rental shall be the lesser of:
(a) the average monthly rental paid by displaced resident for the 3-month
period prior to initiation of negotiations; or
(b) thirty percent(30%)of the displaced resident's average monthly gross
income.
Where the displaced resident was the owner of the dwelling from which he or she was displaced
or was not required to pay rent for that dwelling, or where the rental is unrealistically low, the
economic rent shall be used in lieu of the average monthly rental to calculate base monthly rental.
- 43 -
(2) Rental for Comparable Replacement Dwelling. The monthly rental for a
comparable replacement dwelling shall be determined by the Displacing
Agency using one of the following methods:
(a) Comparative Method. On a case by case basis by determining the
listing rental of dwellings which are most representative of the
acquired dwelling and meet the definition of a comparable
replacement dwelling. Whenever possible the listing rental of at least
three dwellings shall be considered.
(b) Schedule Method. Where the Displacing Agency determines the
comparative method is not feasible, it may establish a schedule of
reasonable rental charges for the various types of comparable
replacement dwellings. The Displacing Agency shall cooperate with
other entities causing displacement in the area to establish a uniform
schedule. The schedule shall be based on a current analysis of the
market to determine a reasonable rental charge for each type of
dwelling to be rented. The analysis may be confined to other
sub-areas from which the persons are displaced or may cover several
different sub-areas if they satisfy or exceed the criteria for a
comparable replacement dwelling. To assure the greatest
comparability of dwellings in any analysis, the analysis shall be
divided into classifications of the type of construction, number of
bedrooms, and range of rental charges.
(c) Alternative Method. Where the Displacing Agency determines that
neither the schedule, nor comparable method is feasible in a given
situation, by the use of another reasonable method selected by the
Displacing Agency.
Whichever method is selected the cost shall be updated to within three
(3) months of the date of rental of the replacement dwelling.
In calculating the base monthly rental and the rental for a comparable
replacement dwelling the Displacing Agency will include as a
component of rent the cost or estimated cost of utilities, but not
including telephone service.
b. [§ 619] Downpayment
The downpayment for which a payment specified in§615b may be made, shall not exceed the
amount of a reasonable downpayment for the purchase of a comparable replacement dwelling where
such purchase is financed, plus expenses incident to the purchase of a replacement dwelling
- 44 -
computed in accordance with §610. The full amount of a downpayment shall be applied to the
purchase of the replacement dwelling and shall be shown on the closing statement or other document
acceptable to the Displacing Agency.
4. [§ 620] Rental Payments for Displaced Homeowners and Dependents
a. [§ 621] Homeowners
A displaced homeowner who elects to rent rather than purchase a replacement dwelling and
who meets the eligibility requirements of§616 is eligible for the rent differential payment specified
in §618.
b. [§ 622] Dependents
A dependent who is residing separate and apart from the person or family providing support,
whether such separate residence is permanent or temporary,shall be entitled to payment under§614,
but such payment shall be limited to the period during which the displaced dependent resides in the
replacement dwelling. For the purposes of this section, "dependent" shall be a person who derives
fifty-one percent (51%) or more of his or her income in the form of gifts, from any private person
or any academic scholarship or stipend. Full time students shall be presumed to be dependents but
this presumption may be rebutted by demonstrating that fifty percent(50%)or more of their income
is derived from sources other than gifts from another private person or academic scholarship or
stipends.
Dependents residing with the family of which they are a part shall not be entitled to any
payment except as a part of the family.
F. [§ 623] Payments to Residents Displaced from Manufactured Homes and Mobile
Homes

pursuant to §603), then the displaced resident shall be paid an amount for moving expenses
determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of §703, Actual Reasonable Moving
Expenses for a displaced business.
- 45 -
3. [§ 626] Replacement Housing Payments
•
The Displacing Agency shall make a replacement housing payment to a displaced resident who
is displaced from his or her manufactured home and mobile home in the following situations:
a. A resident who owns a manufactured home or mobile home and site and, as a
replacement, purchases both a dwelling and site, shall be provided a payment
in accordance with§604. A resident who owns a manufactured home or mobile
home and site and, as a replacement, rents both a dwelling and site, shall be
provided a payment in accordance with §614.

replacement,rents or purchases a dwelling and site,shall be provided a payment
in accordance with §614.
c. A resident who owns a manufactured home or mobile home and site, and, as a
replacement,purchases a dwelling and rents a site,shall be provided a payment
in accordance with §604 and §614. The payment shall be limited to the lesser
of:
(1) The amount necessary to purchase a conventional comparable replacement
dwelling; or
(2) The amount necessary to purchase a replacement manufactured home or
mobile home(in accordance with§604)plus the amount necessary to rent
a replacement site(in accordance with §614). In calculating this amount,
the economic rent for the site shall be used in lieu of average monthly
rental to determine base monthly rent.
d. A resident who owns a site from which he or she moves a manufactured home
and mobile home shall be provided a payment under§604 ifhe or she purchases
a replacement site and under §614 if he or she rents a replacement site.
e. A resident who owns a manufactured home or mobile home which is acquired

rent or make a down payment on a replacement site (in accordance with
§614); or
(3) If he or she elects to rent a replacement manufactured home or mobile
home and site, the amount required to do so in accordance with §614. In
calculating this payment, the average monthly rental shall equal the
economic rent for the manufactured home or mobile home plus the actual
rent for the site.
f. Similar principles shall be applied to other possible combinations of ownership
and tenancy upon which a claim for payment might be based.
G. [§ 627] Proration of Payments
For the purpose of calculating an alternate payment under §603, or a replacement housing
payment under§604 or§614, two or more individuals (whether they are members of one family or
not) living together in, and displaced from, a single dwelling shall be regarded as one displaced
resident. If two or more such individuals submit more than one claim, an eligible claimant for a
payment may be paid only his or her reasonable pro rata share (as determined by the Displacing
Agency) of the total payment applicable to a single displaced resident. The total of the payments
made to all such claimants moving from the dwelling unit shall not exceed the total payment allowed
to be made to a single displaced resident.
Where a tenant is sharing a single-family dwelling with an owner-occupant,the tenant shall not
be entitled to more than one-half of the rental assistance payment otherwise payable. The
owner-occupant shall not be required to share the replacement housing payment to which he or she
is entitled or to accept a prorated amount.
H. [§ 628] Payment After Death
A replacement housing payment is personal to the displaced person and upon his or her death
the undistributed portion of any such payment shall not be paid to his or her heirs or assigns, except
that:
1. The cost attributable to the displaced person's actual occupancy of the replacement
housing shall be paid;
2. The full payment shall be disbursed in any case in which a member of a displaced
family dies and the other family members continues to occupy the replacement
dwelling selected in accordance with the regulations in this part; and
- 47 -
3. That portion of a replacement housing payment necessary to satisfy the legal
obligation of an estate in connection with the selection of a dwelling by or on behalf
of a deceased person shall be disbursed to the estate.

described in §702 through §706 or §713 through §719. Whenever the acquisition of real property
used for a business causes the business to move from other real property upon which the same
business is conducted, or to move its personal property therefrom, such business shall receive
payments for moving and related expenses under§702 and §703 in connection with its move from
such other real property.
B. [§ 702] Moving Expenses
1. [§ 703] Actual Reasonable Moving Expenses

been filed.
The moving and related expenses for which claims may be filed shall include: -
a. Transportation of persons and property not to exceed a distance of fifty (50)
miles from the site from which the business was displaced, except where the
Displacing Agency determines that relocation beyond such distance of fifty(50)
miles is justified;
b. Packing, crating, unpacking, and uncrating personal property;
c. Such storage of personal property for a period generally not to exceed twelve
(12) months, as determined by the Displacing Agency to be necessary in

f. The cost directly related to displacement of modifying the machinery,
equipment, or other personal property to adapt it to the replacement location or
to utilities available at the replacement location or modifying the power supply.
Claims for payment under this subsection shall be subject to the following
limitations:
(1) Reimbursement costs shall be reasonable in amount.
(2) The cost could not be avoided or substantially reduced at an alternate
available and suitable site to which the business was referred.
g. The cost of any license,permit,or certification required by a displaced business
concern to the extent such cost is necessary to the reestablishment of its
operation at a new location;
h. The reasonable cost of consultants including: architects, engineers, or others
providing general or specialized services necessary for(i)planning the move of
the personal property,or(ii)moving the personal property,or(iii)installing the
relocated personal property at the replacement location. For purposes of this
paragraph, and in order to avoid duplication of payment, all such services shall
not be deemed "necessary" when the services have been or will be provided by

and the qualifications of such persons must be provided for review, and a
reasonable hourly rate or fee must be approved by the Displacing Agency before

determined by the Displacing Agency.
In order to obtain a payment under this paragraph, the displaced business shall
make a bona fide effort to sell the personal property for which the payment is
claimed at the highest price offered after reasonable efforts have been made over
a reasonable period of time to interested prospective purchasers. The displaced
business shall be reimbursed for the reasonable costs of such effort to sell the
tangible personal property.
j. Where,in the judgment of the Displacing Agency,the cost of moving any item
of personal property of low value and high bulk which is used in connection
with any business would be disproportionate in relation to its value, the
allowable reimbursement for the expense of moving such property shall not
exceed the difference between the cost of replacing the same with a comparable
item available on the market and the amount which would have been received
for such property on liquidation. This provision may,in appropriate situations,
be applied to claims involving the moving of junk yards, stockpiles, sand,
gravel,minerals, metals, and similar property.
k. A displaced business which conducts a lawful activity primarily for assisting in
the purchase, sale, resale, manufacture, processing, or-marketing of products,
commodities,personal property,or services by the erection and maintenance of

business. The total amount of the payment by the Displacing Agency for such loss shall not exceed
an amount equal to the estimated reasonable cost of moving the personal property,as determined by
the Displacing Agency. Subject to such limitation, the actual direct loss of personal property for
which claims may be filed shall be determined by appraising either:
a. The in-use value (fair market value of the personal property for continued use
at its location prior to displacement)minus net proceeds realized from the sale
of all or part of the property; or
b. The estimated reasonable costs of relocating the property.
- 51 -
The actual direct loss of personal property shall be computed and based on an appraisal
obtained by either the Displacing Agency or the displaced business,and approved by the Displacing
Agency.
In order to obtain a payment for the actual direct loss of personal property, the displaced
business shall make a bona fide effort to sell the personal property for which the loss is claimed at
the highest price offered after reasonable efforts have been made over a reasonable period of time
to interested prospective purchasers. The reasonable cost of an effort to sell the personal property
shall be added to the determination of loss under this section.
In the event personal property which is sold or abandoned is promptly replaced with a
comparable item, no payment for the actual direct loss of such personal property shall be made to
the displaced business by the Displacing Agency; instead, the displaced business shall be paid the
amount specified in §703j.

thousand dollars ($20,000.00). Said dollar limitation shall apply to a single business regardless of

goodwill and shall explain in writing that any payment made pursuant to Code of Civil Procedures

Goodwill")will be reduced in the same amount. The portion considered to be compensation for loss
of goodwill shall not exceed the difference between the payment made under this section and an
amount which reasonably approximates the payments for which the displaced person otherwise
would be eligible to receive under§703 through§712. Failure to provide such written statement and
explanation shall constitute a conclusive indication that no portion of the payment is considered to
be compensation for loss of goodwill for the purposes of that portion of the Code of Civil Procedure
referenced above.

type of business conducted, the nature of the clientele, the relative
importance to the displaced business of its present and proposed location,

Agency may make use of a more representative period.
(d) If application of the above criteria creates an inequity or hardship,the
Displacing Agency may use other criteria as permitted in 49 CFR
24.306.

the owner and other interested parties,including, for example, contact with utility companies
servicing the property,and inquiry of the Displacing Agency's licensing department,building

applications or otherwise transact business. The Displacing Agency shall also consult other
probable sources of such information.
E. [§ 1111] Establishment of Just Compensation
1. Before negotiations are initiated to acquire property, the Displacing Agency shall
establish an amount it believes to be just compensation for the property to be
acquired, which amount shall, in no event, be less than the Displacing Agency's
approved appraisal of the fair market value of the property. The appraisal shall not
be deemed approved unless it has been reviewed to the satisfaction of the Displacing
Agency or its designated officer and the Displacing Agency or its designated officer
has determined in writing that the appraisal is approved.The Displacing Agency may
initiate negotiations without first having obtained an appraisal in the event the
property to be acquired has a low market value not justifying, in the opinion of the
Displacing Agency the expense or delay of an appraisal and the owner of the property
agrees,in writing,to sell or donate the property without an appraisal having first been
obtained and approved by the Displacing Agency.
The determination of just compensation shall be based upon consideration of:
a. The real property being acquired;
b. Where the real property acquired is part of a larger parcel, any damages to the
remainder; and
c. Loss of goodwill where the owner of the property is also the owner of a business
conducted on the property to be acquired or on the remainder, and where the
provisions of the Eminent Domain Law pertaining to compensation for loss of
goodwill are satisfied.
2. Notwithstanding subdivision 1 of this section,the Displacing Agency may make an
offer to the owner or owners of record to acquire real property for less than an
- 76 -
amount which it believes to be just compensation thereof if(1) the real property is
offered for sale by the owner at a specified price less than the amount the Displacing
Agency believes to be just compensation therefor, (2) the Displacing Agency offers
a price which is equal to the specified price for which the property is being offered
by the landowner, and (3) no federal funds are involved in the acquisition,
construction, or project development.
3. As used in subdivision 2 of this section,the term "offered for sale"means any of the
following:
a. Directly offered by the landowner to the Displacing Agency for a specified price
in advance of negotiations by the Displacing Agency.
b. Offered for sale to the general public at an advertised or published, specified
price set no more than six (6)months prior to and still available at the time the

use and the remainder will be left in such size, shape or condition as to constitute an
uneconomic remnant, the Displacing Agency shall offer to acquire the entire property if
the owner so desires. An uneconomic remnant is a parcel of real property in which the
owner retains an interest after partial acquisition of the property and which has little or no
utility or value to such owner.

- 77 -
offer, and shall represent the fair market value of the property identified in the offer to be acquired
without apportionment between the parties who may claim a compensable interest in the property.
2. [§ 1115] Statement of the Basis of Just Compensation

owner with a written statement of the basis for its determination of just compensation. The
statement shall include the following:

property would be acquired for such project,other than that due to physical
deterioration within the reasonable control of the owner or occupant;
(4) Does not reflect any consideration of or allowance for any relocation
assistance and payments or other benefits which the owner is entitled to
receive under an agreement with the Displacing Agency except for an
amount to compensate the owner for that portion of loss of goodwill
provided in accordance with §6100 of the state Guidelines;
e. If the owner of real property to be acquired is also the owner of a business

the households living on the Project site. (If a personal interview was not done with any of the households, briefly
explain how the relevant information was obtained.)
A table is attached showing some of the household characteristics and needs. (See--Attachment 2)
Attached are the most current income limits for the"very low-", "low-", and"moderate-" income categories as
established by HUD for County.(Attach the most current HUD income category limits for your
county -- Attachment 3.) The attached table shows the income categories for each of the households.
(Attachment 2)
Briefly,describe the neighborhood demographics and characteristics:
Briefly describe any location needs and preferences for housing (such as preference for home ownership or
tenancy,preferred area of relocation,proximity to public transportation, employment,schools, medical facilities,
public/social services and agencies,recreational services,parks, community centers, and shopping)and any other
special needs(such as the need for a unit with disabled access or special services,special language needs,special
schools,etc.)of each of the displaced households.
B. REPLACEMENT HOUSING RESOURCES
A resource survey was made on or about to identify available comparable, decent, safe and
sanitary units available in close proximity to the Project site. three bedroom units, two bedroom units,
and one bedroom units will be required to adequately relocate the Project site households. (If larger units
are needed, please indicate:) . Therefore, the survey focused on
confirming the availability of this number and size of bedroom units. Attached is a copy of the resource survey
showing the number and size of the available units found in the survey and their rent or purchase levels and
location. (Please create and attach a housing survey which conforms with the housing needs and preferences
identified elsewhere in this Plan --Attachment 4.)
Briefly describe how the replacement housing resources meet the specific needs identified in section A.
C. CONCURRENT RESIDENTIAL DISPLACEMENT
Briefly describe any current or proposed displacing activities in your jurisdiction which may impact upon the
ability to relocate the displaced households.

as long as such unit meets the standards of"comparable replacement housing"as defined in section E
below; and
(b) The cost of the replacement housing,including rent and average monthly utility costs,will not exceed
30% of the household's average monthly income or their current rent amount,whichever is less; and
(c) The right to return to their original unit; and
(d) The rent for the first 12 months upon returning to the original unit, will not exceed the lower of the
following: (1) up to 5% higher than the rent at the time of displacement; or (2) up to 30% of the
household's income; and
(e) The estimated time for displacement will be reasonable; and
(f) The temporary replacement housing will not be unreasonably impacted by the rehabilitation
construction,taking into account the age and physical condition of household members; and
(g) Moving expenses. See section H for an explanation of allowable moving expenses.
It is estimated that the temporary displacement for each of the households will occur on or about
It is estimated that the length of time of displacement for each household(not to exceed 180 days)will be
(3) As a result of rehabilitation, some households will be temporarily displaced for a period not to
exceed 90 days. The attached table identifies households which will be displaced for no more than 90
days (Attachment 2). These households are entitled to the following benefits and assurances:

30% of the household's average monthly income or their current rent amount, whichever is less; and
(d) For the first 12 months upon return to their original units,the rent shall not exceed the lesser of the rent
levels prior to displacement or 25% of the household's average monthly income; and
(e) Moving expenses. See section H for allowable moving expenses.
(4) The displacing entity may need to temporarily move some households until such time that
permanent comparable replacement housing is available. The displacing entity may only use this option

(b) The temporary housing must be adequate; and
(c) Permanent comparable housing must be made available to the displaced household no later than 12
months after the temporary move.The household,however,may agree to extend the 12 month period;
and

and if the project plan anticipates moves back into the project area,the temporarily displaced household
will be given priority to obtain such housing; and
(e) The temporary move will not affect the household's eligibility for replacement housing benefits or
relocation assistance. Also, the temporary move will not deprive the household of the choice of
replacement units that would have been available had the temporary move not taken place,and the costs
of the temporary move will not be considered as part of the relocation payments to which the household
is entitled; and
(f) The displacing entity will pay all costs in connection with the move to temporary housing, including
increased housing costs.
E. PROGRAM ASSURANCES AND STANDARDS
There are adequate funds to relocate all the households. Services will be provided to ensure that displacement does
not result in different or separate treatment of households based on race,nationality,color,religion,national origin,
sex,marital status,familial status,disability or any other basis protected by the federal Fair Housing Amendments
Act,the Americans with Disabilities Act,Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VIII of the Civil Rights
Act of 1968,the California Fair Employment&Housing Act,and the Unruh Act,as well as any other arbitrary or

MODEL RELOCATION PLAN PAGE 5
I
1) Fixed Payment-A fixed payment for moving expenses based on the number of rooms containing
furniture or other personal property to be moved. The fixed moving payment will be based upon
the most recent Federal Highway Administration schedules maintained by the California
Department of Transportation. (If using fixed payment, attach the most current moving schedules
--Attachment 6.)
-OR-

licensed,professional mover perform the move;if so,the displacing entity will pay for the actual
cost of the move up to 50 miles and all reasonable charges for packing,unpacking,insurance,and
utility connection charges.The payment will be made directly to the mover or as reimbursement
to the displaced household.
Rental Assistance/Down Payment Assistance
Displaced households who are residential tenants and who have established residency within the Project
site for a minimum of 90 days prior to the "initiation of negotiations" will be eligible for both Rental
Assistance and Moving Expense Payments. Check one of the following statements, whichever is
applicable:
(1) [Public Agency Acquisition] "Initiation of Negotiations"is defined as the first written offer
to buy the property from which the households will be displaced. In this case, the estimated or
actual date of the first written offer to purchase the properties of the tenant households is(if known
at this time)
(2) [Private Entity Acquisition]"Initiation of Negotiations"is defined as the later of the actual
date of acquisition or the date of the Agreement between the private entity and the public agency
for purposes of acquiring and developing or rehabilitating the subject property. In this case,the
estimated or actual date of"initiation of negotiations"is(if known at this time)
Except in the case of Last Resort situations, Rental Assistance Payments will be limited to a maximum of
$5,250 based upon the monthly housing need over a forty-two(42)month period.In addition,the households
may opt to apply the amount to which they are entitled toward the purchase of a replacement unit.
Last Resort Housing Payment
Check one of the following statements, whichever is applicable:
(1) There is adequate"comparable replacement housing"according to the attached housing survey
(Attachment 4). Therefore, there is no need to provide Last Resort Housing Payments. (If you
checked this paragraph,you may skip to Assistance to Homeowners below.)
(2) There is a lack of"comparable replacement housing"according to the attached housing survey
(Attachment 4). Therefore,there is a need to provide Last Resort Housing Payments.
"Last Resort Housing"payments are authorized by statute if affordable"comparable replacement housing"
cannot be found for the displaced tenant household (i.e., housing not more than 30% of the household's
MODEL RELOCATION PLAN PAGE 6
average monthly income.) In this case, payments may be made beyond the $5,250 statutory cap up to 42
months worth of rental assistance. The supplemental increment beyond$5,250 may be paid in installments
or in a lump sum at the discretion of the displacing entity. Briefly specify your policy concerning allowing
lump sum or installment payments.
If a household chooses to purchase a replacement home rather than rent,the household will have the right to
request a lump sum payment of the entire balance to which they are entitled.
Assistance to Homeowners
Check one of the following statements, whichever is applicable:
(1) No homeowners will be displaced by this Project. (Ifyou check this paragraph,you may skip
the rest of this section.)
(2) It is anticipated that homeowners will be displaced by this Project.
Homeowners displaced by this Project will be eligible for relocation replacement housing payments if the
following conditions are met:
(a) The household has owned and occupied their unit for not less than 180 days prior to the"Initiation
of Negotiations." (See,Rental Assistance/Down Payment Assistance above); and
(b) The household purchases and occupies a replacement unit within one year from: (i)the date that the
household receives the final payment from the displacing entity for all the costs of the acquired unit-
or- (ii)the date that the household vacates the acquired unit, whichever is later.
Displaced homeowner households will receive assistance in locating a "comparable replacement"unit and
will be eligible for the following benefits,not to exceed$22,500:
1. Purchase Price Differential:
The displaced households will be entitled to receive an amount equal to the difference between the price paid
for the acquired unit and the amount required to purchase a"comparable replacement"unit. The displacing
entity is allowed the following options in paying any price differential as explained in section 6102 of the
Guidelines: (Check which option is being used.)
(a) Comparative Method: On a case-by-case basis,the displacing entity will determine the price
of a"comparable replacement"unit,which is most representative of the acquired unit,by selecting
and considering the listing price of at least three(whenever possible)"comparable replacement"
units.
(b) Schedule Method: If the Comparative Method is not feasible, the displacing entity may
establish a schedule of reasonable acquisition costs of"comparable replacement"units based on
a current analysis of the housing market.
(c) Alternative Method: When neither the Comparative nor Schedule Methods are feasible,the
displacing entity may use another reasonable method.
MODEL RELOCATION PLAN PAGE 7
(Attach a more detailed explanation of the method used, and, if appropriate, why other methods were not
used. Include an estimate of price differentials for each displaced homeowner, a schedule of acquisition
costs, and, to the extent that such information is not included in Attachment 4, a survey of any "comparable
replacement" units used in your method-- Attachment 7.)

service and any increase in debt or mortgage costs necessary to acquire a"comparable replacement"
housing unit; and
(b) Incidental and reasonable one-time costs for acquiring a replacement unit,such as escrow costs,and
recording and credit reporting fees.
3. Rental Assistance Option:
If a displaced homeowner household, which has purchased and occupied its current unit at least 180 days
prior to the"initiation of negotiations,"desires to rent instead of purchase a replacement unit,the household
is eligible for all the benefits and assistance that is available to tenant households. However, such
replacement housing payments may not exceed the payments the household would have been entitled to if
it had elected to purchase a replacement unit.
4. Last Resort Housing Payments:
Check one of the following statements, whichever is applicable:
(1) There is adequate "comparable replacement housing" for homeowner households. (If you
check this paragraph,you may skip the rest of this section.)
(2) There is a lack of"comparable replacement housing" for homeowner households.
If there is not enough"comparable replacement housing"available,the displacing entity shall pay whatever
costs are necessary beyond the statutory cap of$22,500 to acquire a"comparable replacement"unit,including
reasonable incidental expenses.
A displaced homeowner household which has purchased and occupied its current unit for less than 180 days
but at least 90 days prior to the"initiation of negotiations"is eligible for all the assistance and benefits that
are available to a tenant household.
I. PAYMENT OF RELOCATION BENEFITS
Relocation benefit payments will be made expeditiously. Claims and supporting documentation for relocation
benefits must be filed with the displacing entity within eighteen(18)months from: (i)the date the claimant moves
from the acquired property; -or-(ii)the date on which final payment for the acquisition of real property is made,
whichever is later. Procedures for preparing and filing of claims and processing and delivering of payments are

No household will be displaced until "comparable" housing is located as defined above and in section 6008,
subdivisions (c)and(d)of the Guidelines. Relocation staff will inspect any replacement units to which referrals
are made to verify that they meet all the standards of decent, safe, and sanitary as defined in section 6008,
subdivision (d) of the Guidelines. However, no household will be denied benefits if it chooses to move to a
replacement unit which does not meet the standards of decent, safe, and sanitary housing.
J. EVICTION POLICY
The displacing entity recognizes that eviction is permissible only as a last resort and that relocation records must
be documented to reflect the specific circumstances surrounding any eviction. Eviction will only take place in
cases of nonpayment of rent, serious violation of the rental agreement, a dangerous or illegal act in the unit,or if
the household refuses all reasonable offers to move. Eviction will not affect the eligibility of a person legally
entitled to relocation benefits.
K. APPEALS POLICY
The appeals policy will follow the standards described in section 6150 et seq. of the Guidelines. Briefly stated,
the displaced household will have the right to ask for review when there is a complaint regarding any of its rights
