CONSIDERATION OF PUBLT IlEA RiNG RE: }\MENDMENT TO CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT N.O. C-~.1!.LB([fCpJE.?[]~p?~_~.JSIQ_N OF DIE CASTING OPERATION, 4656 LINCOLN
AVENUE: Planning Director Chds Ey'non 'iummarized a staff report dated June 14, 1985, for
a request by the Hynt1 Die C'Hsting ('orporation to construct a 2,800 square foot metal
huilding additlOno their- ,,"xi',;ting 'T\Anufncturlng fHcility, located at 4656 Lincoln Avenue.
City Council Minutes
June 24, 19a1f:>3
The proposal is for the construction of a 40-foot by 70-foot steel wall addition to the south
side of the existing 19,200 square foot stucco manufacturing building. The new addition
would not tie in architecturally with the existing structure, but should prove to be less noise
penetrable since the walls will be sound attenuated with blown-insulation. Staff
recommended that the perimeter landscape screening along the east property line be properly
maintained including the addition of trees where needed to provide a "solid screening wall" to
act as a visual and sound buffer. Staff recommended approval subject to conditions. Ms.
Eynon added that two telephone calls and one letter from Mr. & Mrs. Wilson, of 9190 Whitney
Way, which Mr. Essex read into the record, have been received in opposition to the expansion.
Mr. Martin Perry, McAlpine & Salyer Construction, Inc., 15709 Illinois Avenue, Paramount,
spoke in support of the addition and answered questions from the Council.
Councilman Coronado questioned the type of machinery to be used in the building and
expressed concern over the amount of noise transmitted to the residents.
Mr. Al Hyatt, 251 Orange Acres Drive, Anaheim, responded that he is adding 26' to the
manufacturing center; will be adding one machine that is the same as presently exists,
including shock absorbers; and would be in business 24-hours a day, five days a week. Mr.
Hyatt indicated that the operation would be better than before due to the proposed addition
shielding more of the sound from the residents.
Patrick O'Hara, 9170 Whitney Way, Cypress, expressed the following concerns: 1) why a
metal building was chosen; a clarification on the die cast equipment; whether the high water
table causes greater vibrations; and commented on the amount of noise in the area.
Fred Glass, 9210 Whitney Way, Cypress, reported that the existing tree buffer is not
maintained and is not aesthetically pleasing, and added his request for clarification on why a
metal building is proposed. Mr. Glass asked how insulation plans can be made when it is
unclear how much noise will be generated. He concluded by adding that the report at this
time is incomplete and an insulation plan with a sound abatement is needed before a rational
decision can be reached.
Howard Neill, 9171 Julie Beth, Cypress, suggested that the manufacturing area be moved to
the front of the building and that the business offices be located in the rear adjacent to the
homeowners.
Don Prather, 9180 Whitney Way, Cypress, commented on the noise and suggested that Mr.
Hyatt insulate the entire existing building. Mr. Prather reported that employees are
disposing materials into metal bins located outside of the building during late night hours.
Discussion continued with Mayor Pro-tern Lacayo summarizing the concerns voiced by the
homeowners.
Mr. Hyatt responded that the metal building would be consistent with the existing building
and that the entire building is presently insulated. Mr. Hyatt further commented that his
crews are violating instructions if they are working outside at night; all yard work is to be
done during daylight hours only.
Mr. Perry added that a metal building is easier to construct, is more cost-effective and will
retain its looks.
Discussion continued with Ms. Eynon indicating that in regard to the noise, the City Code has
noise requirements with decibel ratings for inside and outside of a building and the owner
must comply.
Mayor Pro-tern Lacayo questioned whether the door located at the south end of the building
can be relocated to the east. Mr. Hyatt responded that the door must be in alignment with
the equipment, and in answer to a previous question stated that financially he is unable to
move the manufacturing to the front of the building.
Mayor Pro-tern Lacayo then addressed the landscaping concerns and asked the Planning
Director to comment on the landscaping. Ms. Eynon reported that the landscaping does need
upgrading. Mr. Hyatt added that he had received complaints that the trees were encroaching
on the residents' property so he spent considerable money to have the trees topped and
trimmed.
Mrs. Lou O'Hara, 9170 Whitney Way, Cypress, spoke in opposition to the building expansion
adding her opinion that the existing problems will increase upon building expansion.

City co~J.~/1l Minutes
June 24, 1985
Mayor Pro-tern Lacayo suggested continuing this item and directing staff to investigate the
insulation plan, and provide an overview of the operation, i.e. hours, noise levels, etc.
Councilman Coronado requested that staff investigate the legal standing in connection with
requiring an EIR and to consult an acoustical engineer and contact local residents in regard
to the noise problems.
Councilman Mullen explained that he would like to be assured that this improvement will be
better for the neighhors and concurl'ed that additional insulation information is needed.

THE CYPRESS RECREATION AND PARK DISTRICT: A staff report was presented dated
June 13, 1985, summarizing the Recreation and Park District 1985/86 budget. The budget is
balanced with the total proposed budgeted expenditures at $2,139,345, which is up 12% from

personnel costs and higher maintenance costs of the park facilities. Mr. Essex stated for the
record that the Council, as well as staff, have thoroughly reviewed the budget proposal.
