KATELLA AVENUE: Mayor Lacayo opened the public hearing and announced that the
applicant has again requested that this item be continued until the issues pertaining to the

DANNY TERRELL LEWIS, D.B.A. INDEPENDENT CURB PAINTER: The Mayor opened the
public hearing and Mr. Essex presented a staff report dated December 4, 1985, for a request
from Mr. Danny Terrell Lewis, D.B.A. Independent Curb Painter, 3054 Easy Avenue, Long
Beach, to allow door-to-door solicitation for painting address numbers on street curbs in the
city. The Police Department's report was negative and, therefore, the City Attorney
requested that discussion on that report not be discussed during the public hearing, but rather
in a closed session.
The applicant was not present, and therefore, Mayor Lacayo recommended a continuance.
Mr. Joel Rehagen, 5303 Vista del Sol, asked why the police report would not be public
information and the Mayor indicated that the rights of the applicant must be protected.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Partin to close the public
hearing and to deny the special permit based on the determination that it would comport with

summarized the staff report dated November 25, 1985, for a request from Steven Provenghi
to consolidate two parcels into one for the purpose of constructing apartments at 5292 and
5302 Bishop Street, in the RM-20 Residential Multiple-Family Zone. In order to proceed with
construction of the apartment project, the applicant was requesting consideration of the
subject parcel map, in compliance with the conditions of approval of Conditional Use Permit
No. 85-11. Staff recommended approval subject to conditions.
Mr. Steven Provenghi, 9291 Lexington Street, Cypress, was present in support, but did not
wish to add any comments.
Mr. Edward Huebler', 5293 Vista del Sol, questioned whether the concern addressed at the
meeting of June 10, regarding adequate screening for privacy, has been resolved. The
Planning Director clarified that the conditions imposed would protect the privacy of those
adjacent residents.
There was no opposition to this request.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Coronado to close the
public hearing and to adopt the Resolution by title only, title as follows, approving Parcel

opened the public hearing and the Planning Director reported that the applicant has
requested a continuance to the meeting of January 13, 1986. Mayor Lacayo, hearing no
objections, so ordered consideration of Parcel Map No 85-425 continued to the Council
meeting of January 13, 1986.
CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 85-30 AND
PARCEL MAP NO. 85-426, 26 APARTMENT UNITS AND DENSITY BONUS ALLOWANCE AT
6322-6340 ORANGE A VENUE: The Mayor opened the public hearing and the Planning
Director indicated that the applicant has requested that the project be approved at the
recommended density of 23-units as opposed to the original request of 26 for the construction
of apartment units at 6322-6340 Orange Avenue, and that at the time of design review it
would return to Council.
Ms. Beverly Jackson, 5560 Emerywood, Buena Park, owner of the property, indicated that
there was a misunderstanding and that she did wish to proceed with the request for the 26-
units.
Mayor Lacayo urged Ms. Jackson to carefully consider whether she wished to proceed with
the request for 26-units, since staff is recommending denial. Councilman Partin added that
if denied, it would be one year before the Council would reconsider the request.
Ms. Jackson requested a few minutes to confer with her architect, and Mayor Lacayo,
hearing no objections, granted the request and proceeded to the next agenda item.
CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 85-31 AND
PARCEL MAP NO. 85-428, FIRST SOUTHERN BAPTIST CHURCH, 9131 WATSON STREET:
Mayor Lacayo opened the public hearing and the Planning Director summarized the staff
report dated November 27, 1985 for a request from Pastor Michael Wilson, of First Southern
Baptist Church, to consolidate three parcels into one; construct a parsonage/single-family
residence in conjunction with the existing First Southern Baptist Church by granting a
-2-
492
City Council Minutes
Decemb~r 9, 1985
Conditional Use Permit; and to remove the existing nonconforming status of the Church,
which is lacking a Conditional Use Permit, concerning property located at 9131 Watson
Street, in the Residential Single-Family zone. The subject site is unique in that two of the
three parcels are legally landlocked and thus are also nonconforming. However, the applicant
has requested that the church not be required to consolidate the three parcels, since he had
not been advised of the difficulty of obtaining financing for the new house if the site was
joined to the church property. Staff also was unaware that the rear parcel had never legally
been separated from the original parcel, which fronts Bishop Street, but was simply deeded
from one property owner to the other. It was revealed that the applicant could not legally
grant an easement to themselves, as owners of all three parcels. Therefore, the only
remaining alternative was to require parcelization of the lots to provide street access and
remove the nonconforming status. Once parcelized, however, the proposed project must be
processed as a CUP to remove the nonconforming status of the church and allow construction
of the parsonage as an accessory structure. Since the applicant had never returned the
signed agreement to the Design Review Committee's conditions of approval within the
prescribed time frame, he was advised that the Design Review approval was void and he
would have to file the appropriate parcel map and conditional use permit applications. Staff
recommended approval subject to conditions. The Planning Director further indictated that
the applicant is requesting a refund and waiver of fees associated with the processing and
development of the proposed project, due to numerous delays, which the applicant attributes
to the City.
Councilman Mullen suggested that the Council consider the Conditional Use Permit and
Parcel Map first, and then, if approved, consider the fees.
Michael Wilson, Pastor, First Baptist Church, 1834 E. Diana, Anaheim, and Mr. Jerry
Shumard, Chairman of the Board of Trustees, 9572 Salisbury Lane, Cypress, were present in
support of the request. Mr. Wilson explained that in the past he was unclear as to why the
lots were required to be consolidated.
Ms. Eynon clarified that the parcel proposed for development was never legally split off; it
had been purchased and the deed had been changed, but it was not a legal parcel. The State
Subdivision Map Act does not permit development under these circumstances. Additionally,
Ms. Eynon indicated then when the parcel map from the County was pulled for the property
at which the pastor's office is located, it was found that one of the conditions of approval
noted on the permit was that it be consolidated with the Church should any construction take
place.
Mr. Wilson indicated that he was unaware that the property was illegally split or that a
condition had been recorded on the adjacent parcel which effectively precluded the access
easement originally envisioned as a solution to the landlocked situation. He further added
that the Church meets the conditions of the Subdivision Map Act and that the parcel is legal,
although non-conforming.
The City Attorney explained that the City is an enforcement agency to enforce the Map Act
and added that the Church does not meet the conditions of the Subdivision Map Act. He
added that if additional information is required, the Council may wish to continue the
hearing.
In response to Mayor Lacayo's inquiry, Pastor Wilson indicated that the Church may be
responsible for as much as $14,000 in fees prior to beginning construction.
Mr. Joel Rehagen, 5303 Vista del Sol, asked for clarification regarding why the City has not
enforced the Subdivision Map Act until this time and Mr. Essex informed him that it is
triggered by the request for development.
Martha Justice, 9632 Salisbury Lane, Cypress, questioned why mail is delivered if the parcels
are landlocked. Mayor Lacayo clarified that it is landlocked because legal access is lacking,
but indicated that the mail can still be delivered.
Pastor Wilson requested the following considerations: 1) Approval to proceed with
construction when the tentative parcel map is approved by the City rather than waiting until
the final map is recorded; 2) waiver of Parcel Map and Conditional Use Permit fees; and 3)
waiver of the underground power line requirement.
Mr. Ed Huebler, 5293 Vista del Sol, questioned who is responsible for maintaining the wall on
the west side of the property running north/south and expressed his concern regarding the
increased traffic and the security of the adjacent residential area.
Mr. Steven Provenghi, 9291 Lexington Street, Cypress, indicated that the use of Covenants
-3-

and Agreements would help the owner in this case.
Patricia Fayogle, 5572 Danny Avenue, Cypress, asked for clarification regarding the
consolidation of the property.
Following discussion, it was moved by Councilman Kanel and seconded by Councilman
Coronado to close the public hearing and to adopt the Resolutions by titles only, titles as
follow, approving Conditional Use Permit No. 85-31 and Parcel Map No. 85-428, subject to
conditions, with the drainage fees to apply only to the parcel being developed, fees of which
may be paid over a five year period.
Mr. Beardsley questioned whether the Council wished to delete the last sentence in Condition
No.1 of Exhibit "A" which states that the parcel map shall be recorded prior to issuance of
Building Department permits. Councilman Partin suggested changing it to an Occupancy
Permit which allows 4-6 months. Mr. Beardsley indicated that they receive vesting rights by
starting construction before the map is recorded. Mr. Essex suggested that the vesting rights
be waived as a part of the condition. Mr. Wilson indicated his agreement that he would waive
his vested rights for the record. Mr. Beardsley requested that the Council make a finding
prohibiting a precedent being set. The Mayor indicated that it is a unique situation due to
the hardships created by the delays.
The City Attorney recommended the following wording for Condition No.1: "The applicant
agcees that he shall not acquire a vested right by virtue of obtaining a permit and making
substantial improvements and incurring substantial liabilities".
Mr. Beardsley recommended that Condition No.5 be reworded as follows: "The service from
the nearest power pole would be performed underground, however, removal of the power
poles on sit':' ',iauld be exempt for the purpose of this Conditional Use Permit".
Both Co,_"eiLi".il Kanel and Councilman Coronado agreed to amend their motion to include
the modification of Condition Nos. 1 and 5 recommended by the City Attorney and Public
Works Director and to adopt the Resolutions by title only, title as follows, approving the
Conditional Use Permit and the Parcel Map, subject to conditions, with the drainage fees to
apply only to the parcel being developed, fees of which may be paid over a five year period.

recommended density of 23-units, for property located at 6322-6340 Orange Avenue.

December 9, 1985
The Planning Director summarized the applicable sections of the staff report dated
December 3, 1985, that would apply to the amended request from California Castles, Inc.,
401 North Brookhurst, Suite 108, Anaheim, for the construction of twenty-three apartment
units on a .96 acre site, which includes a four-unit density bonus allowance. She indicated
that since this request has been reduced from 26 units to 23, the variance to reduce the
required landscaped open space area and landscaped area between parking spaces and
structures would not be necessary. Ms. Eynon indicated that she would defer from reviewing
the site plan and statistical information due to the changes, and added that the conditions
would remain the same. Staff recommended approval of the twenty-three units.
Ms. Jackson spoke in support of approval subject to approval of the Design Review
Committee's review. She requested the following changes to the conditions: Deletion of the
requirement of the eight-foot wide sidewalk to be constructed across the Southern Pacific
Railroad right-of-way to join the existing sidewalk at the east side of Juanita Street, which is
Condition No.3 on Exhibit A; and that the required six-foot high block wall required to be
constructed along the east and southeast property line, Condition No.2 in Exhibit B, be
constructed of redwood. She asked for clarificiation of why she is responsible for
constructing a sidewalk on property she does not own and indicated that she would like a
redwood fence along the back to enable potential future growth.
Mr. Leo Burke, 9250 Ronald Drive, questioned the distance from the construction of the
apartments to the block wall.
Ms. Eynon responded that from Juanita Street to the project would be aproximately 300
feet. She indicated that the block wall is required for safety and security and Mr. Beardsley
urged that the sidewalk be required.
Mayor LacfjVo suggested that a bond be posted that would require the installation of the
sidewaJkwhen the other side is developed, thereby sharing the cost between the two property
owners.
Mr. Beardsley indicated that the cost of the sidewalk would be approximately $1,000 and that
posting a bond may be more costly.
Councilman Mullen indicated that in protecting the interests of the citizens, he would not
support a delay in the construction of the sidewalk.
Following discussion, Ms. Jackson agreed to install the sidewalk as per Condition No.3 on
Exhibit A and construct a block wall fence as indicated in Condition No.2 of Exhibit B.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Kanel to close the public
hearing and adopt the Resolutions by title only, title as follows, approving Conditional Use
Permit No. 85-30 and Parcel Map No. 85-426 for 19 units plus 4 density bonus units, subject
to all conditions listed in Exhibits A and B.

A. Dillingham Roofing, Inc.'s bid not meeting specifications. Mr. Beardsley reported that
staff had met with the Dillingham Company, the Garland Company and Tremco. He
indicated that staff is satisfied with Dillingham's experience and the references supplied.
However, materials supplied by the Garland Company do not meet Class A Fire Rating
specifications, without the use of an insulation board, which staff prefers not to use. He
concluded by indicating that the roofing material supplied by Tremco is superior to that of
the Garland Company, and recommended award of contract to A & C Construction.
Mr. Richard Salyer, 8485 E. Florence, Downey, counsel for the .T. A. Dillingham Company,
reported that the Garland Company would send their product to a testing lab to insure a
Class A Fire Rating. Mr. Beardsley interjected that the process could take months, but Mr.
Salyer indicated that the testing should be completed within five weeks.
Mr. Bob Myers, Tremco representative, 3060 E. 44th Street, Vernon, warned of potential
liability if the roof is not Class A rated and indicated that their roofing materials are rated
Class A by U .L. Testing Laboratories as required in the bid specifications. Mr. Myers
indicated that Tremco provides a 10/10 guarantee and compared the Tremco materials to the
Garland Company's.
Mr. Bill Phiffer, Garland Company representative, spoke in support of the Company's roofing
products and explained the difficulty of obtaining ratings when each configuration is
different.
Mr. Mike McVay, Sr. Consultant for Tremco, indicated that the Tremco products are superior
to the Garland Company's, and answered questions from the Council.
Discussion continued regarding a continuance of this item to enable the Garland Company to
have their products tested.
Mr. Beardsley f'eiterated staff's recommendation and added that the Dillingham Company did
not meet the specifications at the time of bid and still do not, and therefore, stood behind
staff's initial recommendation for award of contract to A & C. Mr. Beardsley indicated that
one alternative would be to reject all bids and readvertise for the project.
Councilmen Mullen and Partin concurred that the Dillingham Company did not meet the
specifications required in the bid. Councilman Coronado added that it would be worthwhile
to rebid the project to possibly save $17,000.
It was moved by Councilman Kanel and seconded by Councilman Coronado to reject all bids
and authorize staff to readvertise for the award of contract for the re-roofing of the east
and west wings of the Administration Building, re-saturating the roof of the Main Building at
the Maintenance Yard, and miscellaneous roof repairs at the Community Center. The motion

CONSIDERATION OF DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE NO. 85-28, CHIEF AUTO PARTS
STORE, 5441-71 LINCOLN AVENUE: Planning Director Chris Eynon summarized the staff
report dated December 2, 1985, for a request to construct a one-story Chief Auto Parts Store
at the northwest corner of Lincoln Avenue and Walker Street. Currently, a Chief Auto Parts
Store is located in the commercial center directly across Lincoln Avenue from the subject
site. The applicant is planning to relocate this store to the proposed location. At the time of
Parcel Map No. 85-347 approval, Council had expressed concerns regarding the design of the
proposed project and requested that Design Review Committee No. 85-28 be submitted to
Council as an informational item.
Fred Ensinitis, 1345 S. Diamond Bar Boulevard, Diamond Bar, representative for Chief Auto
Parts, spoke in support of approval.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Partin to receive and file
the report. The motion carried unanimously.
CONSIDERATION OF BIDS FOR ANNUAL CONTRACT TO FURNISH ASPHALT FOR
STREET REPAIRS: Public Works Director Robert Beardsley presented a staff report dated
December 2, 1985, summarizing the two bids that were received for the annual contract to
furnish asphalt for street repairs. An actual field study was conducted to determine driving

and loading times, and it was found that, even though Sully Miller was the low bidder, it
would be more economically feasible to award the contract to All American due to the
location of the Sully Miller plant.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Partin to award the
contract for asphalt material to All American Asphalt, 932 Town &. Country Road, Orange, in

six bids received for the renovation of the restroom at Arnold/Cypress Park. Staff
recommended approval of Proposal No.1, (which includes the addition of a snack bar and
storage room renovation), to the low bidder.
Councilman Coronado expressed concern over the location of the storage facility and the
possibilities of burglaries and vandalism. Mr. DeCarlo indicated that the storage room would
have one entrance door and it would be constructed of steel.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Coronado to award the
contract for the renovation of Arnold/Cypress Park restrooms to Modern Construction
