Patterson, and staff members Barrett, Beardsley, DeCarlo, Eynon, Hurst,
Leonard and Lowenberg.
CONTINUATION OF CONSIDERATION OF BUDGET WORKSHOP. The City Manager stated the
justification for the new personnel had been transmitted to the Council and
Council could consider adopting the budget with conditions. or remove all
personnel requests and reduce appropriations. which means revising and
restructuring the budget.
After further discussion and review of charts presented by Councilman
Coronado, the Council recessed at 6:08 p.m. to the conference room to continue
the budget workshop. At 6:58 p.m.. Council entered Executive Session to

summarize the discussion held during Executive Session.
The City Attorney advised Council of the new Court decision in which the U.S.
Supreme Court required local government to provide compensation for temporary
regulatory taking of property for the period prior to the regulation being
held invalid. This decision implies that more attention will be paid by
courts in terms of matters of excessive zoning regulations.
PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: Councilman Davis led the pledge to the flag.
ORAL COMMUNICATIONS: The Mayor asked if anyone wished to speak.
Ms. Gail Kerry, 5196 Edgemont Circle, Cypress, wished to readdress the issue
of salary raises for top management level employees. Ms. Kerry had received
the copy of the salary survey and proceeded to pass out copies of her speech,
graphs and analysis to each Councilmember. Ms. Kerry explained the results of
her analysis of the salary survey, concluding that salary ranges should be
adopted. Ms. Kerry presented a copy of a petition with 91 signatures
protesting the salary increases.
Councilman Davis stated that it is Council's intention to create a salary
range for the ensuing years.
Councilman Coronado stated, for the record, that he didn't approve any of the
salaries.
Councilwoman Arnold responded that the City of Cypress has an exceptional
staff but the administration of these salary increases was excessive and not
within the goals of the City of Cypress.
Councilman Mullen asked that Ms. Kerry's report be referred to the City
Manager so comments can be made on the points mentioned and indicated that
Councilman Coronado did state during the personnel sessions, which were
closed, that he was willing to accept an 80% salary adjustment to 80% of the
median salary levels but he was not willing to go 90%.
Councilman Coronado stated that, for the record. he did not vote for those
salaries.

City Council Minutes June 22, 1987 435
Councilman Mullen stated he was satisfied that his observation was known and
asked his comments be put in the record.
Mr. Felix Lopez, 5661 Orange Avenue, Cypress, stated he has talked with
community leaders and read a letter received from Joyce Nicholson expressing
concern about the salary increases for top management employees.
After further discussion, a response to the reference in Mrs. Nicholson's
letter to a "bonus" in the salary increases was made by Councilman Mullen and.
for the record, he stated there was no bonus to anybody in this situation, but
traditionally salary adjustment time was the end of December for this
classification of employee and it took all this time to get the figures and
facts together, finally arriving at a decision and a retroactive salary
adjustment was implemented.
Ms. Gail Kerry, 5196 Edgemont Circle, Cypress, stated there was an indication
that maximum salary as provided in the consultant's report was the actual
salary being paid employees in other cities. It gave the salary range; it did
not state other city employees were being paid maximum and wondered if she had
missed something in the report.
Mayor Kanel asked staff to respond to Ms. Kerry's question.
Mr. Bob Erickson, (no address given), stated that pay is not always
commensurate with the position; pay is commensurate with the job and the
experience level.
Mr. Jack Swank, 9849 Via Sonoma, Cypress, stated that the Cypress Green Belt
Preservation and Open Space Initiative Ordinance has been advertised and,
thereafter, signatures will be obtained.
Mr. Bob Solheim, 9572 Sonwell Place, Cypress, stated he was opposed to the top
management salary increases as they are excessive for a city the size of
Cypress and the increases should be reconsidered.
Ms. Jane Wozniak, 4480 Avenida Granada, Cypress. stated the issue is not the
salary increases for the Police Department.
Mayor Kanel stated that all the departments were considered in their entirety
and the department heads were low and salaries had to be increased.
CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO.87-11, LOADING
DOCK FACING HOLDER STREET, 6400 KATELLA AVENUE. Mayor Kanel opened the public
hearing. The Planning Director summarized the staff report dated June 16,
1987, which indicated that this was a request to locate a single truck loading
dock facing an arterial street for Mitsubishi Motor Sales of America, Inc.,
located at 6400 Katella Avenue in the PC-2 Planned Community Business Park
Zone. The loading dock will be set back 130 feet from the east property line
and 190 feet from the north property line and will be part of a three-story
125,350 square foot headquarters building for Mitsubishi and the applicant has
assured staff that the loading dock will be used only for service deliveries.
Notices of the public hearing were posted, published and mailed to all
property owners within a 300 foot radius and no communication was received.
Staff recommended approval of this C.U.P. 87-11 subject to the conditions in
Exhibit A attached.
The Mayor asked if anyone wished to speak in support of the application.
Ms. Terry Simpson, 6351 Cantiles Avenue, Cypress, stated she was not aware
that new building construction was to occur and since there is an existing
loading dock, questioned the need for another.
In response to several questions, the Planning Director stated: 1) the
hearing is specifically for the loading dock, not the building; 2) the loading
dock will provide only service deliveries to the new building; and 3) the new
building construction was approved approximately four years ago.
No one else wished to speak in support or in opposition.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Davis to close
the public hearing and adopt the Resolution by title only. title as follows,
approving C. U. P. 87-11 subject to the ten conditions in Exhibit A.

CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: URGENCY ORDINANCE ENACTING A ZONING
MORATORIUM ON ALL NEW DEVELOPMENTS IN THE CN-10,OOO, CG-I0.000 AND CH-10,OOO
ZONES. Mayor Kanel opened the public hearing. The Planning Director
summarized the staff report dated June 15. 1987, indicating that staff was
directed, at the Council Meeting of June 8, to notice and prepare appropriate
documents for the enactment of a zoning moratorium on all new developments in
the CN Commercial Neighborhood, CG Commerical General and CH Commercial Heavy
Zones. The proposed moratorium will allow time for the Council/Staff
Commercial Development Committee to review, revise and update the existing
design and development standards.
Councilwoman Arnold stated her support of this proposed moratorium for the
health. safety and welfare of citizens with regard to unsafe parking.
deliveries, ingress and egress, no rear door exits and all effort would be
made to make the moratorium a minimal amount of time.
The Mayor asked if anyone wished to speak in support or opposition of the
proposed moratorium.
Mr. Pasquale Celella. Century 21, Fountain Valley. spoke regarding the
approved project at 11741 Valley View Street and stated there was no reason
not to proceed with this proposed development.
Mr. Greg Poyner, 5042 Myra Avenue, Cypress, representing the Chamber of
Commerce, stated that the problems occurring now are not because of the codes
and standards but the lack of enforcement thereof. He suggested dealing with
items on a case-by-case basis and agreed with the concerns but not with a
moratorium.
Councilman Coronado expressed support of some organized plan to establish
conformity in new developments that will be beneficial to the City.
Councilman Davis stated the concern is whether or not the standards are
correct and the moratorium is the avenue to enable design standards to be
updated.
By the way of clarification. the City Attorney responded that without a
moratorium someone who meets the design standards could proceed. The cutoff
period can be drawn at a given point in time or related to a particular point
i n time, i. e. . issuance of building permits.
Mr. R. Alajajian, Alajajian Marcoosi. Architect. 600 West Broadway. No. 260,
Glendale, asked approval of his project as it was started prior to the
moratorium issue and thus avoid unnecessary delays in developing the area.
Ms. Joan Matsalla, 5195 Edgemont Circle, Cypress, stated she is not in favor
of all the small shopping centers springing up in the neighborhood.
Councilman Mullen expressed total support of evaluating the codes to determine
whether or not the codes and development standards require upgrading; however,
he was concerned that: 1) developers will assume Cypress is no longer
interested in this type of activity; and 2) a moratorium may not accomplish
its intended purpose and, therefore, was not supportive of the moratorium.
Mayor Kanel requested that his comments on this issue be made for the record;
therefore, a verbatim transcript of his statement is on file in the Office of
the City Clerk. In summary. the Mayor was concerned with the length of time a
moratorium would take based on previous moratoriums that were enacted for
motels on Lincoln Avenue. He was further concerned over the need to involve
the Chamber of Commerce in studies of this type and in the implications of the
recent Supreme Court decision relative to moratoriums. The Mayor indicated he
was not supportive of this moratorium at this time.

City Council Minutes June 22, 1987 437
Mr. Bob Bess. 9682 Salisbury Lane, Cypress, stated all he has heard tonight is
developing and building and there should be some concern shown for the
residents and not just the business people of the community.
There were no other speakers in support or opposition.

close the public hearing and adopt an ordinance of the City Council of the
City of Cypress enacting an zoning moratorium on all new development projects
in the CN-I0,OOO, CG-I0,OOO and CH-I0,OOO zones effective immediately. After
further discussion, the motion was amended to insert an effective date of June

development that is for the addition, replacement or expansion of existing
development or uses. The motion failed by the following roll call vote since

moving forward as rapidly as possible.
CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC HEARING RE: PROPOSED USES FOR REVENUE SHARING FUNDS:
Mayor Kanel opened the public hearing. The Finance Director summarized the
staff report dated June 11, 1987, advising that Federal guidelines require a
public hearing for the purpose of considering uses of Federal Revenue Sharing
Funds. Mr. Hurst further advised that the revenues will be used for police
operations as has been done in the past several years.
In response to Councilman Mullen, the City Manager advised that, in the
beginning, the Revenue Sharing Funds were used for capital outlay
expenditures; however, due to the required complicated recordkeeping
procedures. staff felt it was easier to use the funds for operating
expenditures.
The Mayor asked if anyone wished to speak in support or opposition to the
appl ication. No one wished to do so.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Davis to close
the publ ic hearing and approve the use of Revenue Sharing Funds for police
operations as stated in the 1987-88 City Budget. The motion unanimously
carried by the following roll call vote:
AYES: 5 COUNC Il MEMBERS: Arnold, Coronado, Davis, Mullen & Kanel

stated the proposed Cypress Recreation and Park District budget is $2,477,015.
which includes the extended day care program proposed at Swain School as well
as major capital projects for the Senior Center expansion, Pinewood Park
playground equipment and Arnold/Cypress parking addition.
Responding to a question from Councilwoman Arnold, Mr. Essex stated the 11%
increase in budget was due to personnel operating costs, higher maintenance
cost of the park facilities and the extended day care at Swain School.
The Hayor asked if anyone wished to speak in support or opposition of the
application. No one wished to do so.
Acting as the ex officio government Board of Directors of the Cypress

ABSENT: 0 COUNCILMEMBERS: None
CONTINUATION OF CONSIDERATION OF A NO SMOKING ORDINANCE:
Mr. Mike Natale, Via Maria Restaurant, Cypress. representing the restaurant,
stated he has set aside 20% of the restaurant as a non-smoking area and the
policy should be set by the restaurant owner and not by government. The
business person should be allowed to establish the percentage of smoking/non-
smoking area that is right for their business.
Mayor Kanel referred to informational material on a no smoking ordinance from
the City of Brea in which the Chamber of Commerce handles disputes.
Mr. Greg Poyner, Cypress Chamber of Commerce, remarked that the Cypress
Chamber feels that each business should be allowed to institute their own
types of restraints and percentages as any prudent business person would want
to accommodate his customers.
Ms. Crystal Santo, 4597 Everest Circle, Cypress, stated she took exception to
the City Council passing any kind of a smoking ordinance when a businessman
should know what's best for his business.
Ms. Gail Kerry. 5196 Edgemont Circle, Cypress, stated she was definitely in
favor of non-smoking sections; however, flexibility has to be allowed for the
businesses to work with what they have.
Mr. Jack Swank, 9849 Via Sonoma, Cypress, stated the businessman should be
allowed to establish the percentage of smoking/no smoking area.
Mayor Kanel, looking at statistics on the percentage of smoking to non-smoking
areas, stated that the figures are running from 25 to 401. If percentages
were eventually allocated, they would be in an experimental stage at the
onset.
Councilmembers Mullen, Coronado and Arnold expressed support for a reasonable
amount of regulation and to consider an ordinance similar to the City of
Brea's no smoking legislation.
After further discussion, Mayor Kanel suggested continuing this item to the
next Council meeting.
For the record, Mr. Ned Fox, representing the Chamber of Commerce, responded
to a question from Councilman Davis, stating that the Chamber of Commerce
provided the Council with a copy of the Brea non-smoking ordinance to give
them some idea of what is happening in other cities. The role of the Chamber
in Brea was simply to contact businesses, give them the ordinance and monitor
it. If an employee had a complaint, he would report it to his supervisor or
manager and if the problem wasn't resolved in-house, it would be reported to
the Chamber. Chamber would go out and attempt to resolve it. If the problem
didn't stop there, it would go to the City Council.
The purpose of the whole program was that industry was going to resolve their
own problems without government intervention. The ordinance has been in
effect for nine months, 21 complaints received and none have reached City
Council, having been resolved by the Chamber of Commerce.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Davis that this
item be referred back to staff and requested a more voluntary-type compliance
of a no smoking ordinance be written. perhaps patterned after the City of
Brea's ordinance. Hearing no objection. Mayor Kanel continued this item to
the next Council meeting.
CONSIDERATION OF DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE NO. 87-21, NEIGHBORHOOD SHOPPING
CENTER. 11741 VALLEY VIEW STREET. The Planning Director summarized her staff
report dated June 16, 1987. describing the request to construct a neighborhood
shopping center near the northwest corner of Valley View Street and Santa
Catalina Avenue in the CN Commercial Neighborhood Zone. The proposed use is a
5
City Council Minutes June 22, 1987 439
permitted use subject to a Design Review. The property is a square shaped
parcel fronting on Valley View Street with a total area of 40,000 square feet.
The proposed shopping center will have a gross floor area of approximately
12,000 square feet, containing 11 units. 50 parking stalls and located along
the south and west property lines. The proposed building plans indicate an L-
shaped building with a Spanish modern design.
Councilmembers Arnold and Mullen expressed concern about the lack of rear
doors on the proposed center.
Mr. R. Alajajian. Alajajian Marcoosi Architects, 600 West Broadway. No. 260,
Glendale, stated he worked very closely with the Planning Department, saw no
reason to delay this project further and requested approval.
After further discussion, it was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by
Councilman Coronado to approve the design review for 87-21 subject to the 31
conditions recommended by staff, with condition 15 revised to specify that
exterior storage would be a violation of the design review, and adding
condition 32 to require "emergency only" doors at the rear of each unit, which
are not for normal ingress or egress uses. The motion unanimously carried by
the following roll call vote.
AYES: 5 COUNCILMEMBERS: Arnold, Coronado, Davis, Mullen & Kanel
NOES: 0 COUNCILMEMBERS: None
ABSENT: 0 COUNCILMEMBERS: None
CONSIDERATION OF COMMUNICATION FROM MR. & MRS. SEHI REGARDING THE CONDITION OF
THE FORMER LOS ALAMITOS GOLF COURSE.
Mayor Kanel stated there had been some concern expressed by residents living
across the street from the golf course of the potential fire hazard created by
the dry grass.
Mr. Charles Nicola, Fire Department Battalion Chief, stated it was the Fire
Department's opinion that the condition of the golf course does not constitute
a serious fire threat. If the grass grew to 10-12 inches high, then there
would be more fuel loading and more of a problem, which could be addressed
through the weed abatement program.
After further discussion, it was suggested that Mayor Kanel write to Mr. Sehi,
informing him of the Battalion Chief's opinion and explaining that because the
golf course is private property, Council has no right to require the watering
of the course to protect the surrounding trees.
Hearing no objections, Mayor Kanel received and filed the item.
CONSIDERATION OF PEDESTRIAN CROSSING ON WALKER STREET, NORTH OF BALL ROAD.
Mr. Essex summarized the Traffic Commission Report dated June 17, 1987, which
stated that the Traffic Commission recommended a painted, signed crosswalk.
with an adult crossing guard, be provided at Walker and Rome to serve
vehicular and pedestrian traffic as an interim measure until additional staff
studies determine the need for a signal.
Ms. Penny Dash, 5716 Aspen Street, Cypress, responded that while a painted
crosswalk and crossing guard were better than nothing, the parents wanted a
signal. She stated that a possible compromise measure would be to relocate
the existing pedestrian signal that is now at Moody and Myra to Walker and
Rome.
Mayor Kanel stated there were various streets that the children could exit the
residential area.
Mr. Calton, Superintendent of the Cypress School District, in observing the
safe routes to Morris school, stated those are generally developed by the
Traffic Commission and noted the changes in the placement of crossing guards
as a result of the the reassigment of school boundaries in March.
After further discussion, Mr. Essex read a letter just received from Traffic
Commission Chairman Kennedy recommending that the children be directed to the
signalized intersection at Ball and Walker for crossing. Mr. Essex further
advised that Chairman Kennedy had polled the rest of the Commissioners and
6
;' ,.,,:.'
('; t4 Wnc i 1 Mi nutes June 22, 1987
they all concurred that their previous recommendation would create an unsafe
crossing intersection.
Ms. Dash stated that the children must cross several commercial driveways on
their way to the corner or Walker and Ball, which is a very dangerous
situation.
Mr. Bill Calton, Superintendent of the Cypress School District, stated the
safe routes configuration is somewhat different than before, crossing guards
would not be required at some of the intersections and requested that a
crossing guard be moved to Walker and Aspen and attempt to avoid having
students cross the commercial driveways.
After further discussion, Councilman Mullen suggested this item be continued
to the next meeting so the it can be pinpointed on a map where the children
going to Morris school live and obtain further input from staff.
In response to questions from Council, Chief Lowenberg stated the original
recommendation was to have the children walk to the signalized intersection of
Ball and Walker where there is a crossing guard and the motorists are more
aware of vehicular and pedestrian traffic.
After further discussion, it was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by
Councilman Coronado to continue this item to the next meeting, that Mr. Calton
provide the demographics that were requested and that the staff provide
Council with necessary input and reports, along with the review of a a prior
study done on the Walker and Aspen/Rome intersection. The motion was
unanimously carried by the following roll call vote:
AYES: 5 COUNCILMEMBERS: Arnold, Coronado, Davis, Mullen & Kanel
NOES: 0 COUNCILMEMBERS: None
ABSENT: 0 COUNCILMEMBERS: None
CONSIDERATION OF ADOPTION OF THE 1987-88 BUDGET FOR THE CITY OF CYPRESS.
The City Manager reported that the proposed budget had been reviewed by tthe
City Manager and City Council at a June 2, 1987 workshop and included
expenditures of $14,496,409. The largest increases in operating expenditures
are from additional personnel and inflationary increases in both personnel
costs and supplies and other services.
Ms. Maxine Blackburn, 9672 Salisbury Lane, Cypress, expressed dissatisfaction
with the top management salary increases and the request for additional
personnel in some of the departments and requested an answer on the purchase
of a new street sweeper and if the contract to sweep La Palma provided proper
remuneration.
Mr. Essex stated Cypress needed additional equipment to sweep streets and La
Palma was interested in contracting with Cypress on an availability basis and
was charged an amount which partially offset the sweeper cost and more than
offset the cost to sweep La Palma. The City Manager responded that Council
has been discussing the request for additional personnel and that it be
continued to following meetings and suggested that the budget be adopted with
the amounts projected; however, that none of the new positions be filled until
there is direct authorization from Council.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Davis to approve
continuing the Council meeting past 11:30 p.m. Hearing no objection, the
Mayor continued the meeting.
In response to a question, the Finance Director stated the expenditures on the
La Palma street sweeping is approximately $30,000 and the City receives
approximately $40,000 from La Palma and the sweeper cost approximately
$60,000.
Following additional questions, Mr. Essex explained the budgeting process the
City uses on all capital equipment.
It was moved by Councilman Mullen and seconded by Councilman Davis to approve
the budget as currently recommended by the staff with the provision that none
of the requested additional positions be filled until specifically authorized
by the City Council.

Department requests for reinstatement of the school resource officer and only
one dispatcher reinstated; opposed to the salary increases, the cable
television system, subcontracting of some City work, such as vehicle repair .
and janitorial services.
Councilwoman Arnold stated, for the record, that the allocation for the hand
~c~ held radios be changed from $10,000 to $3,200.

amended by the City Attorney.
