The Council and Commission discussed the subject of code

II1
CONSIDERATION OF HORSE BOARDING OPERATION - 8311 GAY STREET:
Councilman Harvey asked for a status report on the proposed
horse operation on County unincorporated property. The
Planning Director reported that, as directed by the Council
at the last meeting, the staff made a presentation in
opposition to the proposal at the October 21 hearing
before the County Planning Commission and the matter was
continued until November 3. Councilman Harvey indicated
there were a number of residents present who were concerned
over the proposed use and the issue of property rights and
who wished assistance on how to maintain compatible uses
in the area.
Mrs. Mary Ilgin, 8400 Carob Street, Cypress, expressed
concern about the incompatibility of uses located in the
County on Gay Street with the residential area of the City
of Cypress and requested clarification of the County's
A-1 zoning designation. She stated she was immediately
adjacent to the subject property and that she opposed the
horse boarding use because of the health and noise problems.
She indicated a letter with 51 signatures was presented to
the County Planning Department opposing the use because of
the nuisance created by similar existing uses on Gay Street.
The Planning Director stated the A-1 zone was a general
agricultural zone which permits the keeping of horses but
does not allow stables or riding clubs without a conditional
use permit and provides for a minimum lot size of one acre.
He stated the County general plan conforms with the Cypress
General Plan by designating this area as single-family
residential.
Councilman Harvey suggested that this was an appropriate
issue for consideration by the Intergovernmental Coordinating
Council whose function is to consider problems which trans-
cend city and county boundaries.
It was moved by Councilman Harvey and seconded by Councilman
Kanel to adopt the following Resolution by title only, title
as follows, to direct the Planning Director to meet with
concerned residents of Carob Street to review County ord-
inances and consider possible solutions to problems of
this nature, and to forward this matter to the Intergovern-
mental Coordinating Council for their consideration:
RESOLUTION NO. 1648
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF CYPRESS OPPOSING USE PERMIT NO. 3720 OF
THE ORANGE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION.
Mrs. Ellen Jacobsen, the applicant, described the proposed
use and felt that by maintaining high standards the use
would not be incompatible with the residential area and
could serve as an attractive model for horse stables. She
indicated the property would be used by a private club for
maintaining expensive show horses and that the applicant had
distributed a description of the proposal to the entire
neighborhood. She felt the property owners' main objection
was to the state of disrepair of the fence on the property.
Mrs. Jean DeBruce also spoke on behalf of the applicant in
support of the application.
City Council Minutes October 27, 1975
The following persons spoke in opposition to the horse
boarding operation based on their objections to the dust,
noise, flies, odor and health problems created by horses
in the area and incompatibility of the use in the residen-
tial neighborhood:
Mr. Jeff Owens, 8412 Carob, Cypress
Ms. Elda Quinn, 8422 Carob, Cypress
Mr. C. Dunnachie, 8271 Carob, Cypress
Ms. Lucille Owens, 8412 Carob, Cypress
Mrs. Marilyn Dunnachie, 8271 Carob, Cypress
Councilman Kanel stated he did not feel the use would be
compatible with the adjacent residences because of the
large number of animals proposed to be kept and he felt
this was the wrong location for such a use. He felt the
City should restrict such a use from abutting homes but
noted that the County has certain property rights which
the City cannot control.
Mayor Frankiewich agreed that keeping a large number of
animals in a residential area would be incompatible and
would create fly and other problems.
The motion unanimously carried by the following roll call
vote:
AYES: 4 COUNCILMEN: Harvey, Kanel,
Frankiewich
NOES: 0 COUNCILMEN: None
ABSENT: 1 COUNCILMEN: Lacayo
Sonju and
RECESS: Mayor Frankiewich called a recess at 9:00 p.m.

Councilmen present except Councilman Lacayo.
Hearing no objections, Mayor Frankiewich announced that
Items #14 and 15 would be taken out of order.
CONSIDERATION OF CO-SPONSORING THE LA MIRADA SYMPHONY
ORCHESTRA FOR A BICENTENNIAL CONCERT: The City Manager
presented a report dated October 20 from the Arts and
Cultural Commission requesting that the Council appropriate
$500 for co-sponsorship of a concert by the La Mirada
Symphony Orchestra to be held at the John Wayne Theater
at Knott's Berry Farm in March, 1976.
Mr. Harold Lindamood, chairman of the Arts and Cultural
Commission, stated that half of the tickets would be made
available to Cypress residents at no cost on a first-come,
first-served basis and he indicated there were sufficient
funds in the Commission's budget for the concert.
It was moved by Councilman Kanel and seconded by Councilman
Harvey to approve the recommendation of the Cypress Arts
and Cultural Commission and approve an appropriation of
$500 towards co-sponsorship of the La Mirada Symphony
Orchestra Bicentennial concert. The motion unanimously
carried by the following roll call vote:
AYES: 4 COUNCILMEN: Harvey, Kanel,

City Council Minutes October 27, 1975
CONSIDERATION OF FIRE INSURANCE RATES: The City Manager
transmitted a report regarding fire rates dated October 23.
Orange County Fire Chief Bob Hennessey reported that the
Insurance Services Office, which was conducting the county-
wide reevaluation study, would release the new fire ratings
in four to six weeks and he estimated Cypress would
receive a class 4 rating. He indicated that his estimate
was based on the service provided by the Southern Calif-
ornia Water Company, the fact that the City's fire communi-
cations system has kept pace with City growth, and the
City's building department has kept up to date with building
codes. He indicated that the delay in publishing the ratings
was because the ratings for all 18 areas which were evaluated
would be published at once and was also due to personnel
change-overs in the Insurance Services Office. Chief
Hennessey reported that deviating insurance companies are
already insuring Cypress homes based on a 4 or 5 rating.
He indicated that Cypress' change from a 6 to 4 rating
would not automatically reduce insurance rates and that
homeowners would have to request changes in their policies.
It was moved by Councilman Harvey, seconded by Councilman
Kanel and unanimously carried to direct the City Manager
to issue a press release explaining the fire rating process.
Councilwoman Sonju recommended that the press release
contain the names of the deviating insurance companies
which have insured Cypress homes at lower rates.
It was moved by Councilman Kanel, seconded by Mayor Frank-
iewich and unanimously carried to direct the City Attorney
to prepare background information and legislation which
would require fire insurance companies to offer a rebate
or reduced policy rates at the time a fire rating is changed.
It was moved by Councilman Kanel, seconded by Mayor
Frankiewich and unanimously carried to amena the motion
to provide that the legislation require the Insurance
Services Office to change a rating within six months if
a city qualifies for a fire rating change.
Chief Hennessey indicated such a requirement would be
difficult to enforce because a rating change must be sub-
stantiated and it would be difficult to determine exactly
when a city experiences improvement in fire protection
services.
The City Attorney stated the Council may wish to consider
legislation which would eliminate the prohibition that
participating companies cannot write policies below the
Insurance Services Office ratings.
Following further discussion it was moved by Councilman
Kanel, seconded by Mayor Frankiewich and unanimously carried
to request a report from the City Attorney for the next
meeting addressing the points discussed by the Council
including remedial legislation directed at the Insurance
Services Office.
MINUTE S:
It was moved by Councilwoman Sonju, seconded by Councilman
Kanel and unanimously carried to approve the minutes of

wished to speak in regard to any matter not on the agenda.
Mr. Joe Hardcastle, 4588 Blanca Drive, Cypress, inquired
about the Police Department's procedure for answering
citizen complaints. He reported that he called the Police
Department because of a noise disturbance and he asked
why he was required to make a specific complaint.
The Police Chief explained the procedure for answering
complaints and indicated a noise disturbance is a mis-
demeanor and is unenforceable by the Police Department
unless a formal complaint is made.
