sweeping regarding the fact that in some areas the trash is picked
up after the street has been swept, and also in some areas the
street sweepers are beginning earlier than the 8:~0 a.m. "No Parking"
restriction time and therefore cars are not removed. Councilman
Lacayo requested a staff report on a continuous basis until these
types of problems can be resolved. Councilman Lacayo also reported
he received two calls from people whose homes abut the Cerritos and
Holder housing development which is under construction concerning
the problem with the finished grade of the new development being

apparently desire to have the existing wall removed and a new wall
constructed to meet the requirements of the City Code and the
Conditions of approval of the subdivision map.

requested that staff begin investigating some type of beautifica-
tion ordinance which would protect the City from becoming unkept
with regard to lawns, trees and shrubs, due to the service reduc-
tions under Proposition 13.
Councilman Rowan commented on the street sweeping in the area of
Orange and Lime where the homeowners do not have a location to
move their cars since they do not have driveways, and he requested
that staff investigate the area. He also requested that staff
investigate a special permit process where homeowners with serious
parking problems could obtain a permit and waive the right to have
their gutters swept in front of their residence.

PUBLIC HEARING RE: AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE
Mayor Hudson opened the public heaCing and asked for
report.
The Planning Director read the staff renort dated June 5. Mayor
Hudson inquired about the portion of the proposed amendment dealing
with kennels and asked if they were permitted in residentia~ zones.
The Planning Director stated that throughout the County kennels
are listed as an accessory use in residential zones. The City
Attorney stated that as redefined in the proposed amendment a kennel
is anywhere four or more dogs are kept whether for personal or com-
mercia] use. Councilwoman Evans inquired about the Community Care
Facilities section of the amendment with regard to the maximum
number of residents allowed in the neighborhood care facilities
versus the nnmber of residents hOused in the group community care
faci]ities.
Considerable discussion was held regarding Section 9.3(B) and the
parking or storage of motor vehicles or vehicle accessories such
as camper shells, trailers, motor bikes, or other wheeled accessory
or convenience, on front and street side yards. Councilwoman Evans
felt that parking of recreational motor vehicles should not be
allowed anywhere in the front yard or street side yard setback
areas. Councilwoman Evans referred to page 3 of the amendment
regarding massage parlors and said she would be in favor of deleting
massage parlors from the ordinance completely. On page 4 under
public and semi-oublic uses, Councilwoman Evans inquired if churches
were not allowed in the CH and CG Zones. The Planning Director
replied that the Planning Commission felt churches were not appro-
priate in the CH and CG Zones due to the varied uses allowed in
those zones. The Planning Director stated the reason massage
parlors were included in the ordinance is because they are permitted
in the City and the municipal code has a section gOVerning their
establishment and, in order to eliminate an inconsistency, provi-
sions should be made in the Zoning Ordinance to regulate the
establishment of these uses; the recommendation was that they be
permitted in the CH and CG Zones subject to the granting of a
conditional use permit.
Mayor Hudson asked if anyone in the audience wished to speak on
the proposed amendment.

proposed amendments to the Zoning Ordinance modifying Section 9.3B
to read "except that parking of non-motorized vehicles will not be
allowed on the required paved driveway access to the garage struc-
ture''. Councilwoman Evans said her motion included the deletion
of kennels in the RS-6000 Zone. Mayor Hudson, hearing no second
to the motion, asked if there was another motion.

seconded by Councilman Rowan to close the hearing and order the

woman Evans recommended that the Planning Commission study this

the storage of non-motorized vehicles in the required front yard
setback in single-family residential areas.

ials distributed to the City Council regarding Proposition 13.
Councilwoman MacLain stated the Council should demand that the
State Legislature repeal all laws imposing costs on cities, in-
cluding E.I.R. requests. Councilman Lacayo asked the Recreaiio~
and Parks Director to explain some of the user fees and the
increases that were necessary due to Proposition 13.
Mayor Hudson recommended that the Council communicate to the
Governor, Senator Marx and Senator Carpenter that the Lighting
District, which costs $350,000 annually in Cypress, being a public
utility, is quasi-governmental and its purpose is to deliver
utility needs to the citizens at the most reasonable rate possible
and that it should be a part of the State's function to supply the
lighting to the public on the street lights.
Councilman Lacayo expressed concern over the closing of park pro-
grams. Councilman Rowan asked what portion of the Recreation and
Park District funds are from property tax revenue and what portion
are from user charges. The Recreation and Park Director stated
that 80% of their funds are from property tax revenue and 20% is
from user fees. Councilwoman MacLain requested that staff provide
the Council with information regarding funds that would be avail-
able under the 1975-76 assessment versus the current assessment.
Councilwoman Evans stated she did not object to the higher user
fees for the Recreation programs. She stated she would like to
hear from the Blue Ribbon Committee prior to their June 28 meeting
what they feel are the priority community needs.
It was moved by Councilwoman Evans and seconded by Councilman Rowan
to approve the actions of the staff recommendations and to set the
