CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 85-23,
OUTDOOR STORAGE CONTAINERS AT TARGET, 6835 KATELLA AVENUE: Planning
Director Chris Eynon summarized a staff report dated September 12, 1985 for a request to
place ten outdoor bulk cargo storage containers along the northwest corner of the parking lot
of the Target-Cypress Center site located at 6835 Katella A venue. This area is presently
striped for ten standard parking stalls. Target Stores is requesting permission to utilize the
storage containers on an immediate basis through January 31, 1986. Also, the applicant is
requesting permission to use the containers as needed throughout the year with access being
limited between the hours of 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Staff recommended that Target be
required to notify the Planning Department each time the containers are to be moved on to
the site with an estimate of how long they will remain; that the City Council maintain the
right to review and modify this use permit should substantiated complaints be received
pertaining to the storage containers; the Council shall review Conditional Use Permit No. 85-
23 one year from the date of issuance; and the north, west and south sides of the storage
container area shall be screened with fence and/or landscaping.
Councilman Coronado expressed concern over the strength of the asphalt supporting the
containers and the possiblity that rodents and trash would collect underneath the containers.
Mr. Rich Hachigian, 3823 Aliso Drive, Dana Point, Genera] Manager for Target Store, spoke
in support of the request and assured the Council that Target would maintain the storage bin
areas to discourage rodents and that the extra storage would only be needed for the three or
four big sales yearly.
Councilman Coronado indicated that the use of additional padding around the doors would
help protect against excessive noise.
Mr. Bill Dunlap, Cabot, Cabot and Forbes, 2390 East Orangewood Avenue, Anaheim, spoke in
opposition of approval and indicated that he is presently attempting to lease the building
located west of the Target Center and that the second floor windows of his building will have
a direct view of the containers. He further stressed that when planning the Target Center,
the needed storage space should have been addressed and resolved.
Mr. Dennis Gerard, 6860 Via Kannela, Stanton, spoke in opposition to the containers,
expressing his concern that additional noise would be generated and kids may be attracted to
and congregate at that location. Mr. Gerard added his opinion that the storage containers
are unattractive and will decrease the value of his home.
'Mr. Torn Loftus, 6870 Via Kannela, Stanton, spoke in opposition to the storage bins and added
that originally he was informed that a 12' landscaping setback would be required between his
backyard fence and the parking lot.
Mr. Hachigian indicated that he would obtain containers that are in the best possible shape
and would provide trees taller than the containers to adequately screen the area.
Planning Director Chris Eynon presented slides of the site to clarify the location of the
proposed containers.
Discussion continued with Councilman Lacayo questioning the landscaping along the north
wall. Ms. Eynon indicated that the trees are fast growing, but were not planted on schedule
and the trees, although in 15 gallon containers as required, were extremely young.
Councilman Mullen indicated that the placement of storage containers at this location is not
appropriate and he would not support approval.

Councilman Lacayo indicated that ample space does exist for the containers and suggested
landscaping the northjsout strip of driveway to shield the containers and the parking lot.
from the business park to the west and to use the 30 to 40 gallon trees that are 10 to 12 feet
high.
Councilman Partin indicated that he would not support the storage contai!!ers as proposed,
but would consider a permanent structure to house the containers.
Councilman Coronado indicated his lack of support for the proposal at this time.
Councilman Lacayo suggested continuing this item to enable the applicant to meet with staff
and surrounding residents and business owners and for staff to address the feasihlity of a
permanent structure.
Mr. Dunlap indicated that he is willing to work with staff regarding the screening of the sight
line and the feasibility of a permanent structure at that location.
It was moved by Councilman Lacayo and seconded by Councilman Coronado to continue this
item to enable staff to meet with Target; Cabot, Cabot and Forbes; and the opposing'
residents regarding the screening and permanent structure issues.
The Planning Director indicated that additional time may be necessary to complete these
meetings.
Councilman Partin suggested approving a temporary permit for storage to enable Target to
store the needed merchandise for the grand opening.
Discussion continued with the Mayor suggesting approval of a 30-day period for temporary
storage with staff to return with a report. Councilman Lacayo suggested a minute action to
approve the storage containers for 30-days.
Mr. Hachigian indicated that he would be happy to meet with staff, surrounding neighbors and
Cabot, Cabot and Forbes.
Mr. Dunlap spoke in opposition to the approval of temporary storage, and urged the Council
that if approved to require screening around the temporary storage.
Councilman Lacayo withdrew his motion to continue and Councilman Coronado concurred.

indicated was required to be delivered at least 48 hours prior to commencement of
installation of the system, and which notified the homeowners of the necessity of locating

by any means of the installation and again reiterated that the above-ground installation is
aesthetically displeasing, as well as dangerous. Mr. Balmer added that other cities, to his

meeting. The motion unanimously carried.
In regard to Item No. 5-B, Planning Director Chris Eynon reported that Mr. Lowell Berwick,
of Berwick's Radiator Service, 5351 Lincoln A venue, wished to add the service of trailer

CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: AMENDMENT TO CONDI'fIONAL USE
PERMIT NO. 85-7, TEN-UNIT CONDOMINIUM PROJECT AND DENSITY BONUS
ALLOWANCE, 5462 DELONG STREET: Planning Director Chris Eynon summarized the staff
report dated September 16, 1985 for a request to construct ten two-story condominium units
with single story detached two-car garages on a .54 acre site located at 5462 DeLong Street,
as well as a density bonus allowance. The property in question fronts both Walker and
DeLong Streets and contains an old deteriorating single-family residence with the majority of
the site being vacant. This is the second request filed on the subject site to allow the
construction of a ten-unit condominium project with a two-unit density bonus allowance. The
Council approved a request by Manor Builders, however, they are no longer involved with this
project. Due to the proposal of a different plan, the applicant was required to amend the
Conditional Use Permit. Staff indicated that the subject proposal does meet the
development standards of the Zoning Ordinance and recom mended approval subject to
conditions. Ms. Eynon requested an addition to Condition No. 25 to state that the written
agreement entered into between the developer and the City Council shan be recorded with
the Orange County Recorder.
Mr. Richard Freeman, 3800 Dafalgreen Lane, Rolling Hills Estates, spoke in support of
approval and answered questions from the Council.
Mr. Machado, 5432 DeLong Street, expressed concern over the access of the proposed
driveway on DeLong due to the number of cars parked along DeLong, especially from those
utilizing the park, making it difficult to exit the driveway.
Mayor Kanel addressed the parking issue, suggesting that perhaps permit parking should be
researched to be considered for those residents living in the area.
Councilman Mullen explained that if the driveway was located on Walker Street as suggested
by Mr. Machado, one problem would be too many approaches on a main thoroughfare.
Councilman Mullen inquired as to the status of the continuous left turn pocket from Lincoln
to DeLong and its effect on this project, which the Public Works Director briefly
summarized.
Mayor Kanel inquired whether staff felt that a traffic signal at Walker and DeLong is
warranted at this time. Staff indicated that they would look into it.
Councilman Lacayo suggested that the Council consider studying the density of the area for
possible changes.
Considerable discussion continued regarding the access to the proposed complex and the
traffic flow issue.
It was moved by Councilman Lacayo and seconded by Councilman Coronado to close the
public hearing and to adopt the Resolution by title only, title as follows, approving an
Amendment to Conditional Use Permit No. 85-7, with conditions.

BUSINESSES: The Planning Director presented a staff report dated September 17, 1985 for
consideration of an Urgency Ordinance amending certain sections of the Zoning Code to
provide for the location of fortune-telling businesses in certain zones within the City of
Cypress. After reviewing the subject use with the City Attorney, it was determined that the
most appropriate zones for the location of fortune-telling businesses are the Office
Professional Zone and the Commercial Neighborhood Zone. These zones are for service
oriented uses such as professional offices and client oriented businesses.

telling businesses, due to the number of physicians and other persons licensed to practice
hypnotism.

of hypnotism: "...other than in connection with the practice of medicine".

sections of the Cypress Zoning Ordinance relating to the location of fortune-telling
businesses, to include the additional wording recommended by the City Attorney, clarifying
