He further stated that a theater would be no more detrimental or objectionable than many other uses found in the M-I zoning; that much consideration and effort had been effected to sub- mit this property to every possible individual and company that might possibly be able to use it but, to date, had not had a serious proposal for industrial use on the property. Discussion followed wherein City Attorney Gorlick clarified the intent of the request with regard to permitted uses under M-I zoning, and stated that a public hearing would not be necessary on this particular case, that Council could make the determinations and findings without referring back to Planning Commission. Councilman Bt,shop expressed the opin- ion that the people should be permitted to develop their land as long as use is permited in M-I zoning. Councilmen Little- john and Holmes questioned the matter of noise, possible complaints and the matter of congestion of traffic. Mr. Burger reassured Council that there would be no congestion of traffic on Ramona Boulevard itself as the exiting of cars is late at night when normal traffic is.at a low ebb. He further stated that the property had been on the market for 4-5 years and that a sign had been up for over a year; that the property was too far away from the freeway to attract industrial development; that they had solicited offers and reduced the price with no serious offers having been received. City Clerk Balkus administered the oath to Mrs.Madelyn P. Linville, 15023 East Ramona Boulevard, Baldwin Park, owner of the property, who stated that at least two years ago she had talked to,the Baldwin Park Chamber of Commerce about her ten acres that were available, and was told that the office did not know there was a large piece of land left in Baldwin Park. City Attorney Gorlick stated that Council's action would automatically place drive-in theaters in M-I zone, and that it was not necessary for the Planning Commission to take of- ficial action and actually recommend it as a use in M-1 zone, COUNCILMAN BISHOP MOVED THAT COUNCIL FINDS AND DETERMINES THAT THIS USE IS NOT MORE OBNOXIOUS OR DETRIMENTAL TO THE PUBLIC WELFARE THAN ANY OF THE ENTERPRISES ENUMERATED UNDER SECTION 9100.271, SUB-SECTION d" and e", ZONE M-I REGULATIONS.

Mr. Ralph A. Canaday, 1236 Siesta, Anaheim, representative of Shell Oil Companu, 1085 North Palm Street, Anaheim, California spoke in behalf of the request asking that this proposal be approved as submitted; that this was for consumer and commercial business... that there would be no large deliveries to service stations. Considerable discussion followed wherein Council questioned if the proposed alley, as shown on the plot plan, would be improved. City Clerk Balkus administered the oath to Bill Zachary, 276 W. San Bernardino Road, Covina, Realtor, representing the seller, who stated that there would be no increase in insurance rates in the area in the event this special use permit was granted. Mr. Chan La Fey of Shell Oil Company, 1085 North Palm, Anaheim, California, stated that it was unfortunate that the proposed alley was shown on the plot plan, as it was simply a method of enabling them to lay out their plant, and not proposed as a dedicated alley; that ingress and egress to the bulk plant will be from Joanbridge street; that they do not propose using this property. City Clerk Balkus stated that the proper publications, mail- ings and notices had been made and that no letters of protest had been received. Mr. Leon F. Edwards, 14508 California Avenue, Baldwin Park, questioned the effect this would have, in the future, on real estate adjoining this property, and if it would cause de- preciation. Planning Director Mansfield stated that the property to the south is largely vacant and would probably be constructed upon thereby providing a screen for the bulk plant, and that no direct effect would be suffered. As there was no one else in the audience wishing to speak in behalf of or in opposition to, Mayor Cole declared the hearing closed. COUNCILMAN HOLMES MOVED THAT COUNCIL INSTRUCT THE CITY ATTORNEY TO PREPARE THE PROPER RESOLUTION, THAT THE NEC- ESSARY CITY OFFICIALS BE AUTHORIZED TO SIGN, AND THAT THEY ARE IN CONCURRENCE WITH PLANNING COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 523, WITH THE EXCLUSION OF THE ALLEY.
