Time, North of Orangewood, South of Stanton Storm Channel,

objected to the appearance of the unfinisl~ed tracts and
asked if a six month rather than one year extension could
be granted. The Public Works Director reported that the
extension is a normal request by developers and that
these tracts were still under construction. He stated
that house sales had dropped off and the homes were not
being constructed as fast and that the developer did not
wish to install the street improvements and polish the
area until the houses are built. lie felt more problems
could result if improvements are installed at this time
such as speeding in the tracts and damage to the streets
by the heavy trucks. He stated that the condition attached
to the extension will ensure that the streets will be
kept clean.
It was moved by Councilman Lacayo, seconded by Councilman
Kanel and unanimously carried to approve a one-year extension
of time for the subdivision agreement for the construction
of improvements within Tracts #7793, 8124 and 8177 and
that an amendment be added to the Subdivision Improvement
Agreement incorporating the extension and the following
conditions:

weeds, debris and rubbish.

completed streets within tracts, a minimum of
once every week, and otherwise maintain such
streets in a clean condition, acceptable to the
City Engineer.

and that the applicant obtained the license through a
State priority drawing in 1974. Councilman Kanel felt
there had been a different license at this location
three times and he felt these were frequent changes° The
Council asked that the staff investigate whether this was
a new or transferred license and report back at the June

It was moved by Councilman Kanel, seconded by Councilman
Lacayo and unanimously carried to receive and file the

Jr. Market.
CONSIDERATION OF PROPOSED SIGN POLICY: The City Manager
presented a report dated May 20 which transmitted a proposed
sign policy and conditions for the granting of directional
signing for public service organizations such as schools,
parks and churches. The staff indicated that five churches
had responded to the City Council's inquiry and were
requesting signing. The staff explained that the Traffic Com-
mission had reviewed the proposed sign policy and sign
standards and had opposed establishment of the policy and
recommended that the Council rescind its action regarding
public service signing on public streets. The Commission
felt the policy would result in a proliferation of signs,
that maintenance costs would be borne by the City,
and that public signing should not be allowed to promote
interests of private service groups.
The staff stated that at the time of a sign request, a
field review would be made to determine the location and
type of other signs in the area and whether the proposed
sign would interfere with existing speed control or direc-
tional signing.
It was moved by Councilman Kanel, seconded by Councilman
Lacayo and unanimously carried to adopt the sign standards
as outlined in the May 20 staff report and inform the
Traffic Commission that the Council has adopted the stand-
ards as a policy of the City Council.

issue permits for the sale of beer on neighborhood parks
on holiday weekends. The City Attorney advised that the
beer permit would be a special ABC permit carrying the
restriction that beer be sold to those over 21 years of
age and he did not feel the permit would affect or prevent
minors from using the park at the time beer is sold.
It was moved by Councilman Lacayo, seconded by Councilman
Kanel and unanimously carried to approve a policy allowing
for consumption of beer on neighborhood parks for special
holiday occasions and to authorize the Director to issue

The Council discussed the status of Assembly Bill 15
and the City Attorney reported that a hearing would be
set before the Senate Ways and Means Committee. He
reported that an appropriation of $3 million would be
required for the establishment of an Agricultural Resources
Council under the bill but that the real cost to local
government would be in revenues lost by the prohibition
of development of prime agricultural lands. For this
reason, he stated the staff in its presentation at the
hearings would request that compensation be provided to
cities or that cities be excluded from the bill. The
City Attorney reported that the League of California Cities
was attempting to get together representatives from five
of the cities most actively opposing the bill to propose
a more comprehensive amendment which would satisfy the
different city concerns. The staff indicated it would
present a status report on AB 15 at the June 9 meeting.

ALAMITOS NAVAL AIR STATION: The City Manager reported
that the Airport Land Use Commission had continued con-
sideration of the airport environs land use plan for Los
Alamitos Naval Air Station and had scheduled a hearing for
June 5 on a plan based on the 1963 level of operations
and noise and crash hazard contours contained in the 1963
study by Bolt, Barenek and Newman. He reported that under
the 1963 study, substantial portions of the Harvey property
were subject to noise and crash hazards which would pro-
hibit any type of development or severely limit the type
of development allowed on the property. He recommended
that the staff be authorized to strongly oppose the plan
at the June 5 hearing and urge the City's congressional
representatives to get an answer from the Department of
Defense regarding the status of the Air Station.
The Planning Director reported on the Airport Land Use
Commission's action at the May 15 hearing and summarized
a memorandu~ dated May 27 regarding the affect of Impact

Hearing no objections, the Mayor continued this matter to
the budget session on Friday, May 30.
CONSIDERATION OF PUBLIC NUISANCE AT 5232 MARCELLA AVENUE:

nuisance. The staff presented photographs of the property
where a fire hazard exists because of the dry weeds. The
staff reported that the Fire Warden had inspected the
property and referred the problem to the City for action.

did not take immediate action with such a severe fire
hazard and he recommended that they be urged to take action
if it is within their power.
It was moved by Councilman Lacayo and seconded by Council-
man Kanel to adopt the following Resolution by title only,
title as follows:

CONSIDERATION OF SENATE BILL 502 REPRESENTING THE ENVIRON-
MENTAL QUALITY ACT OF 1970: The City Manager reported on
SB 502 which would repeal the Environmental Quality Act
of 1970. The staff felt the bill would have little adverse
impact on the City of Cypress and recommended that the
Council support the bill.
Councilman Kanel asked how SB 502 would affect the Los
Alamitos Naval Air Station. The City Attorney reported
that any projects undertaken by the Air Station would
require an EIR under the National Environmental Policy
Act of 1969. He stated SB 502 would not affect programs
undertaken by a Federal agency. The City Attorney stated
that a reinstitution of jet operations would require an
EIR under the 1969 Act.
Regarding a development proposal for the Harvey property,
the City Attorney stated that, in the event SB 502 is re-
pealed, the City Council could require by ordinance whatever
information they feel is necessary to inform themselves of
the merits or demerits of a proposal and that a developer
can be required to provide the equivalent of information
contained in an environmental impact report. He advised
that the one instance where the City would be adversely
affected is when another public agency proposes a project
in the City and is not required to prepare an EIR.
Councilman i!arvey stated he did not feel environmental
impact reports are effective since the reports can be
manipulated to serve the interests of the recipient and
the cost is ultimately passed on to the consumer. Mayor
Frankiewich supported these comments. Councilmall Xanel
s~ated he would like to hear other viewpoints from other
agencie~ an~ stated he did not ~ish to take ac~iot~ at
~his time,
