He pointed out a land use map on the wall. TESTIMONY IN BEHALF OF THE REQUEST WAS CALLED FOR BY TESTIMONY IN BEHALF MAYOR MCCARON. Mr. A. W. Cole, Jr., 15027 Howellhurst Drive, Baldwin A. W. COLE, JR,, Park, stated an orderly flow of traffic beneficial 15027 Howellhurst Dr., to the whole community was one of the criterias B.Pk. they had established; that Mr. French was aware of the problem they had there or that the City had with Francisquito and that immediate area; that the three 3) houses he was immediately concerned with and two 2) others were substandard houses; that he had a bid on one for demolition now; that one of the guidelines he thought the City went by was to use the highest possible use for the property; that definitely the highest possible use was not residential; that if it were they would feel they would have to improve the houses to make them habitable; that they were substandard and they would be demolished; that they would make dedication to the City for the widening of the street whereby it would be of uniform width through its entirety in that area; that this did lend continuity to the immediate area as far as the zoning was concerned; that there was C-2 and C-I on the other side of the street; that he thought it would be more beneficial as commercial zoning rather than residential zoning and in the best interests of the community. In answer to a question by Mayor McCaron, Mr. Cole stated he did not own all of the property involved in this zone change; that he did not own the two properties on the corner of Maine and Francisquito; that he would assume with the development of that property they would continue the development along a consistent line; that they had nothing whatsoever to do with the two properties initially submitted to the Planning Commission. Mayor McCaron asked if he had been in contact with the owners of the other two parcels wherein Mr. Cole stated he had been in contact with their agents; that he had not met the gentlemen of Tic Toc Incorporated of America. Mayor McCaron asked if there were any agreements that the property would be developed not as one ownership but as one development. Mr. Cole stated to develop the property not in conformity was foolish and difficult; that money was hard to come by and there was a real reluctance to make any develop- ment that did not instill a feeling of confidence in the investor; that he did not have concrete plans for the development; that they quite recently acquired a third of the parcels; that they had feelers out; that definitely what they would do would be in accord with the development proposed for the corner of Maine and Francisquito; that it would of necessity have to be; that the properties were of a uniform depth with the exception of a piece on Baldwin Park Boulevard.

Mr. Cole stated he believed there was a stipulation as to the dedication of the right-of-way; that he did not know of any others that he would be directly concerned with. Mr. J. Matthewson, 2256 South Oaks, Ontario, stated he owned the property adjoining 3216 Baldwin Park Boulevard which consisted of three lots, 3224, 3226 and 3228 Baldwin Park Boulevard; that this was rental property and his tenants had complained repeatedly of the outlook from their places upon the property at 3216; that he was in favor of the change of zone; that whatever was done there would an improvement. As there was no one else in the audience desiring to speak either in behalf of or in opposition to Z-299, Mayor McCaron declared the public hearing closed. Mayor McCaron stated the Planning Commission recommended that a resolution of intent be adopted and that a develop- ment plan be presented prior to any zone change; that the intent would guarantee the property owner that the zone would be changed providing he had a proper development; that the property would be developed under separate ownership but so that the development on one parcel would enhance the development on another; that he believed that the Planning Commission was right in asking that the zoning be held in abeyance until such time as proper development could be had for the property; that it had been testified to this'evening that concrete plans were not available at the present time. Mr. James Gibson asked if it would be in order to ask the City Attorney a question at this time. As there were no objections, Mayor McCaron reopened the public hearing on Z-299. Mr. James. Q. Gibson, 13268 Francisquito, Baldwin Park, stated he realized after a public hearing was closed all the comments and opinions from the audience were supposed to be over with, however, very often things come up among the members of the Council in discussing the matter after the public hearing has been closed; that in his opinion a zone change was recommended in the first place by the Planning Commission because this area was suitable for this particular zoning; that when it came before the Council, in his opinion, it should be judged by the area in question and there should be no restrictions; that anything should be allowed under C-2 development if the zone change was approved; that if this was proper zoning for this property it would seem to him to be up to Cole and Colwick and the other owners involved to do as they saw fit with the property. He asked if it was not true that a property can be zoned or not zoned and there can be no conditions placed upon the zoning." City Attorney Flandrick stated, yes this was correct. Mr. Gibson stated, in his opinion, it did not behoove the Planning Commission or the City Council to decide what Mr. Cole or any other owner was to do with a certain piece of property.

Mr. Cole stated he and Mr. Gibson were in complete accord; that he did not think it was within the power of the Plan- ning Commission or the City Council to have him come to the Planning Commission or the City Council for particular approval of something that fit into C-I or C-2. Mr. Howard C. Sutterfield, 3779 North Foster, Baldwin Park, HOWARD C. SUTTERFIELD, stated he was in complete agreement with both Mr. Gibson 3779 N. Foster, B.Pk. and Mr. Cole in the points they expressed, however, as a member of the Planning Commission, he thought there was a point that needed clarification; that it was not the intent of the Planning Commission to pass judgment on what Mr. Cole wanted to put on this property because that was spelled out in the Code; that the C-2 ordinance provided for what he could do there; that the City, the Planning Commission felt, had been left high and dry in many zoning cases where they had made definite zoning recommendations and the Council had gone along with them and land prices had gone sky high and no development; that the intent of the action and recommendation of the Planning Commission to the Council in this action was that they were saying to these applicants, yes they agreed that this was ideal C-2 property and they thought it would and should develop and they would like to give the applicant the opportunity to develop it by saying to the applicant they would give the applicant C-2 zoning once the applicant came in with a request for development and the development, of course, would have to be consistent with C-2; that the Planning Commission did not want to tell the applicant that it should be a barbershop or beer hall or whatever it might be; that in essence the Planning Commission was recommending that the City Council give the property owners a one year period and if within that one year period the property had not developed then this action would be null and void and the property would retain its present zoning; that the Council had recently requested the Planning Commission to restudy the area across the street which was C-2A; that it was the Planning Commission's opinion that this was ideal C-2A; that the Planning Commission did not want to continue putting themselves in the position they were with the C-2A where land values had gone up to the point that no one could get a development that could be financed profitably. Mr. Cole stated many times he had seen artist's renderings that were out of this world" and he had yet to see one of them being built; that he would hope within the year he could come up with something, but he would be less than honest if he said he had a concrete plan at this time. Councilman Morehead stated he considered himself the father of the resolution of intent; that he came up with this idea last year and had talked to the Council about in in open session and convinced them that they should consider this resolution of intent instead of an ordinance changing the zone tonight and thirty 30) days hence it would be C-2 or M-I whatever it was; that the City had property that had gone from R-I to C-2 to R-3 back to C-2 Continued) BIB] 39576-U01 1967-U02 01-U02 18-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9994-U03 FO117023-U03 DO117025-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 5/7/2008-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1967 01 18 CC MINHÄ—@¸—2Ð 1967 01 18 CC MINHÄ—@¸—2Ð Í«3233 I Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park; City Council Mr. Cole stated he had never been reluctant to safe- guard properties by putting up block walls; that he did not have any contemplation to build anything that would not be in conformity with neighborhood type business. Mayor McCaron stated if the resolution of intention was adopted the applicant would get the zoning if a development was presented to the Building Department; that this public hearing was the only appearance the applicant would be required to make before the Council; that the zoning would be automatically granted after the development was presented to the Building Department. He asked if Mr. Cole was objecting to this. Mr. Cole stated no; that he was in agreement with this. Mr. Edwin Elko, 13057 Bess, Baldwin Park, stated the applicant might be saving some tax money by leaving the property zoned R-I until after March I, 1967; that he could see nothing wrong with the guarantee for rezoning and the applicant might save some tax money. As there was no one else in the audience desiring to speak either in behalf of or in opposition to Z-299, Mayor McCaron declared the public hearing closed.

Z-299) Mayor McCaron stated if this was passed it would do the same thing as adopting the resolution of intent; that second reading would not be held until such time as development was ordered; that the zoning would remain the same until the second reading. Councilman Morehead asked if this was the procedure the Council had been following on the resolutions of intent. City Attorney Flandrick stated the Council in some cases had adopted a resolution setting a specific time and in other cases the Council had simply withheld second reading; that in this case if the ordinance was introduced the necessary documents would be prepared for the dedication and thereafter the applicant would proceed in such manner as he saw fit for the development itself. Councilman Morehead stated this zoning would not be changed until the applicant met the requirements of the Planning Commission with which he concurred. City Attorney Flandrick stated this was correct; that this could be accomplished in either way, by a resolution of intention or withholding second reading; that it was not rezoned until second reading had been accomplished; that in essence they both accomplished the same thing; that the Council had used the resolution of intention in two cases; that in each of the cases there was a peculiar circumstance, one requiring the location and dedication of an alley; that Mr. Cole had indicated his agreement to the concept of dedication and improvement on the street Continued) January 18, 1967 Page 13 EDWIN ELKO, 13057 Bess, B.Pk.

Councilman Morehead stated this was where the ordinance was not the same as the resolution as he saw it; that the resolution would permit him to start breaking ground tomorrow if he was in order with the recommendation. City Attorney Flandrick stated no; that the resolution of intention had been handled in that same manner; that the building permit was made to be effective at the same time as the ordinance; that otherwise the Building Code etc. would have to be amended to accommodate that, which could be done. Councilman Morehead stated he concurred with the Planning Commission but wanted the resolution of intent to be binding and have the applicant put the cake on the table first" instead of a sign on the property.

City Engineer French presented a staff report with Exhibit A attached and stated it was the staff recommendation that the property be cleared and the structures be demolished.

Mr. Jerry Freid, 132 South Hayworth, Los Angeles, stated he represented Mr. Louis Koolhaas who was the first mortgage holder on this property; that they had been waiting to acquire legal title to this property; that it was an estate and theheirs were not interested in this particular property; that they had been proceeding with a Trustee Sale except that there had been various complications and they had not as yet taken title and had not been able to do any work on the property; that Mr. Koolhaas was in the building business and he had with him a partner of Mr. Koolhaas, Mr. Noland S. Lewis, who was a building contractor; that when Mr. Koolhaas originally purchased the mortgage he did so with inten- tions of eventually acquiring the property and re- habilitating the property and bringing it up to the City's standards; that one of the original owners died some four or five years ago out of state and various papers had to be gathered; that he requested ninety 90) days rather than sixty 60) days; that'he would be willing to quickly, within one week, clean away any debris and secure the building. City Engineer French asked if ninety 90) days were granted would it be agreeable, if the property was not brought up to code or demolished within ninety 90) days, for the City to then demolish the structure. Mr. Freid stated yes. Mayor McCaron stated Mr. Freid assumed he would be able to acquire title within that time; that if he was not the owner in ninety 90) days it would not be up to him to say whether he agreed to it or not. City Attorney Flandrick indicated this was correct but as the first trust deed holder under foreclosure proceedings he was in a position to clean it up in the manner he had indicated and if within ninety 90) days the building was not brought up to Code the City would then undertake to demolish.

Chief Administrative Officer commented that the meeting the Chief expected to attend was the Division of the State League of Cities. 00- i I Councilwoman Gregory asked if cars impounded on Joanbridge RE LOTS USED FOR were from Baldwin Park or West Covina. IMPOUNDING OF CARS ON JOANBRIDGE Chief of Police Adams stated that was part of Blackards storage; that they serviced most of the cities in the near vicinity. Councilwoman Gregory commented that there was a sign which stated police impounding"; that there was a fire hazard; that cars were being parked on unpaved areas; and on the outside of the lot as well as on the inside; that this was a manufacturing area and it was not fair to the better looking commercial or industrial buildings on that street to allow this unsightliness and this condition to exist in Baldwin Park. Planning Director Chivetta stated the lots were occupied with disabled vehicles which were reported by the California Highway Patrol and local police departments; that they were towed there for storage fy dismantlers located in Irwindale; that this was not a police impound yard; that the sign was put there to cut down vandalism on the property; that storage of disabled vehicles of this type was permitted in an M-I zone if enclosed behind an eight 8) foot high solid view obscuring wall or fence; that no dismantling was per- mitted; that the person leasing the lots for this type of use had been notified and had stated he would be removing the vehicles very shortly; that the City had been working with him and giving him additional time; that it appeared one of the lots on the southerly side of Joanbridge was being cleared off; that the person had stated he was going to paint out the sign. Mayor McCaron asked if this would come under nuisance abatement. City Attorney Flandrick stated yes under abatement of nonconforming uses and nuisance abatement. Mayor McCaron instructed that this matter be brought up COUNCIL INSTRUCTION for public hearing under the nuisance abatement sb that MATTER TO BE BROUGHT a definite date for complying could be set. UP FOR P.H. UNDER NUISANCE ABATEMENT 00- Councilwoman Gregory stated it appeared there would be RE POSSIBLE STUDY a sign problem regarding the San Gabriel Freeway; that the FOR NAME CHANGE East off ramp at Los Angeles Street would say Lower LOS ANGELES STREET Azusa Road"; that in her opinion there should be a study by the Chief Administrative Officer, City Engineer and Planning Director regarding changing the name of Los Angeles Street; that she understood there would not be an off ramp at Ramona Boulevard.

Councilwoman Gregory stated with the businesses that would locate on Los Angeles Street it would be helpful for the street name change to take place now rather than after businesses were established. Councilman Morehead commented if Los Angeles Street remained the same name and Lower Azusa remained the same name that the sign might say Los Angeles Street east" and Lower Azusa Road west". Planning Director Chivetta stated he had been contacted by a representative of the State asking if there was any committee or anyone making a study of the possibility of removing the conflicting street names; that he had told this representative that he knew of only one such committee, the East San Gabriel Valley Planning Committee, and at this time they had made no proposals for any street name change from Los Angeles Street to Lower Azusa Road or any other name; that the representative explained that the State was preparing signs for Interstate 605, which was the San Gabriel Freeway, and because the freeway would be located entirely in the City of Irwindale the off ramp signs would read Lower Azusa Road, not Los Angeles Street, because this would be confusing to the motorist; that as of this date the State would proceed along those lines. City Engineer French stated that for clarification there were signing plans submitted and he had talked with the State Division of Highways; that there could only be two names at the off ramp, either Lower Azusa Road-Baldwin Park, or Lower Azusa Road-Los Angeles Street; that the City could change the street name of Los Angeles Street to Lower Azusa Road; that there was going to be an interchange at Ramona Boulevard. Mayor McCaron commented that Lower Azusa Road was a longer street than Los Angeles Street so if there was to be any name change it would appear that it should go to Lower Azusa Road. Councilwoman Gregory commented that Lower Azusa Road went as far as Rosemead Boulevard; that it touched three cities and Los Angeles County.

City Attorney Flandrick indicated there was no problem with the resolution of intention procedure. Mayor McCaron stated one person had testified his tenants would like to see an improvement in the area; that if this property was to be rezoned C-2 and he was to consider it a blank improvement he would think it was too severe zoning for the area; that it might not be as far as facing Francis- quito was concerned but it was as far as the neighboring properties were concerned; that they were R-I and this was putting C-2 directly next to an R-I property; that this was too severe without some assurance that there was to be a development that would be conducive to the enhancement of the area as it was at the present time; that there were things allowed in C-2 that would be impossible to allow next to an R-I zone. Mr. Cole stated he did not think the Council had seen him before them with a drawing of any sort; that he did not believe a new area was being opened up; that there was C-2 on the other four corners; that he was in complete accord with what Mr. Morehead said; that he had no argument with the intent; that he believed this was good for the City and for him and for everyone who lived in the City; that it might work a hardship on someone who lived outside of the City that was coming in and proposing something that they never intended to do strictly for land speculation; that this would give him an indication of what the Council and the City's thinking was as far as what they wanted to do with that property; that he did not feel new vistas were being opened up as far as C-2 was con- cerned; that he felt the zoning in C-2 was quite restrictive. Mayor McCaron asked if he was familiar with everything that was allowed in C-2. Mr. Cole stated he did not think anybody in the room was. Mayor McCaron asked the Planning Director what was the least restrictive use in C-2 zone that he could think of, wherein Planning Director Chivetta stated perhaps this would be a church. Mayor McCaron stated that it would appear C-I would be adequate for the uses asked for. Mr. Cole stated he asked for C-2; that he thought it was initially requested by Tic Toc Markets for C-I. Further discussion followed between Mayor McCaron and Mr. Cole.
