Section 9634, subsection 7 to Include the option of fence or wall on outside storage areas.".

TESTIMONY WAS GIVEN by: TESTIMONY Mr. Bob Pielemeier, 14626 Joanbridge, Baldwin Park stated BOB PIELEMEIER, 14626 that he was representing M-1 property owners; that they Joanbridge, B.Pk. were trying to decide whether this would affect the old owners or mostly the new ones that would be coming in; that they felt the walls in front should be either six 6) feet or a smaller wall with the shrubbery in front; that possibly a wood screening could be installed rather than concrete walls; that two property owners had had this same problem and had had to take the wall down and move It; that he felt as a whole that the Ordinance was wonderful; that the only thing that they were concerned with was the block wall and the storage area, Planning Director Chivetta stated that concerning Section 9634, subsection 7, that the staff recommended that no outside storage areas shall be permitted unless completely enclosed with a solid view obscuring masonry wall or fence, the minimum height of which shall be not less than six 6) feet.". As there were no objections, Mayor Morehead stated that the Council concurred with the staff recommendation regarding Section 9634, subsection 7. Planning Director Chivetta stated that concerning Section 9634, subsection 8, that the staff recommended that it be reworded to read: front yard and side yard areas abutting a street utilized for open vehicle parking areas shall be effectively screened by a wall or fence, not less than thirty 30) Inches in height nor more than six 6) feet in height,.said screening shall be set back five 5) feet from any property line abutting the street and adequate landscaping shall be installed within that five 5) foot area provided further that the Director is empowered to modify the height and placement of the wall, fence or landscaping If the strict enforcement of the same would create an undue hardship upon the property owner, but In no event is the Director empowered to delete this part in its entirety. All landscaping areas shall be provid- ed and permanently maintained with suitable nursery stock and adequate irrigiation systems as approved by the Direc- tor.". City Attorney Flandrick suggested that the reference to permit the Director to vary any of these provisions be deleted; that this was a function of the zone variance. Planning Director Chivetta stated that they were trying to overcome having an applicant apply for a zone variance each and every time; that they would like to give him the option if he wished to go up six feet on the property line Instead of putting in a three foot wall that the applicant would make proper provision by coming in and having it handled administratively to put In landscaping to soften it so that it would not look like a prison; that they felt that the staff could handle it adequately without the procedure of a zone variance; that this would add the least amount of hardship to the applicant.

Planning Director Chivetta suggested that perhaps it could read that said screening shall be set back five 5) feet from any property line abutting a street or located on the property line at the option of the property owner provided that said screening shall be approved as to design and land- scaping provided so as to soften the wall"; that this at least would negate the State law. City Attorney Flandrick stated that this would be accept- able; that this would standardize the regulations. Councilman McCaron Inquired If the size of the signs that were allowed would be 600 sqare foot per sign face area, wherein Planning Director Chivetta stated that the uses permitted in an M--1 zone were different than those permit- ted in a commercial area; that they were usually far re- moved from a freeway; that it was based on the front front- age of the property and limited to wall signs and freestanding signs; that the California Electric Sign Association people had been In and reviewed that section of the code and had stated that they were in full accord. Councilman McCaron stated that if 600 square feet of sign face area were allowed how could it be controlled so that the sign would not be placed adjacent to the street front- age, wherein Planning Director Chivetta stated that it was controlled as to the placement of the sign In the code itself, each particular sign, roof sign, wall sign, free- standing sign had a placement area for the sign. As there were no objections, Mayor Morehead stated the public hearing on AZC-31 would be continued to the next regular City Council meeting of February 7, 1968; that at that time the ordinance would be returned to Council with all the proposed amendments included and that It would be submitted for adoption to the Council. 00- It was the time and place fixed for a public hearing on CP-97, an appeal from the decision of the Board of Zoning Adjustments.

Zoning Adjustments and the action taken by the Board; that there were two significant facts that the Council should be aware of in determining whether the decision of the Board of Zoning Adjustments should be upheld. 1. That the situation that exists at the present time is substan- tially different from that which existed at the time that the original application was denied by the Board and sus- tained by the City Council; that the difference was that the applicant was not a property owner, but merely a person who had an option on the property in escrow; that It was purely a speculative type situation; that there was no specific lease that had been negotiated; nor did the applicant propose any specific plan of development; that In this instance S D C, Inc., were the actual owners of the property; that they would be the leasor to Standard 011; that there was a particular plan of development; that this station would be the type that was now located at Baldwin Park Boulevard and Francisquito; that during the eighteen months that the property owners had owned this property they had made extensive efforts to develop the property; that the only specific inquiries that were made and the only persons Indicating that they would like to sign a lease for some type of development other than Standard Oil was a real estate broker wanting to put In a beer bar and Panchito's Restaurant wanting to franchise a taco stand; Continued) BIB] 39576-U01 1968-U02 01-U02 17-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9994-U03 FO98002-U03 DO117072-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 5/8/2008-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1968 01 17 CC MINHÄ—@¸—4ù Í«3681 I Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council January 17, 1968 Page 9 that both in terms of the type of use which was being proposed and the particular location this use would be far superior to the other two approaches that were made; that the conditions that had been Imposed by the Board of Zoning Adjustments, which the applicant had agreed to live with, Insure some protection to the West Covina residents; that there were no Baldwin Park residents that were involved; that no Baldwin Park citizen had ever objected to this particular development; that the only Baldwin Park people involved had coemercial estab lishments; that the other gas stations which were in the area had not come forward to object to the proposal; that Howard Johnson's which was located approximately half a block away had made no objection; that the conva- lescent home which was to the rear of the property had in no way Indicated any disapproval of the development; that the proposal was to entirely block off any entrance or exit on ltuni Street by installing a wall; that orig- inally Standard Oil had wanted ingress and egress with the thought of servicing those residential areas to the west and south but based upon their objections it had been agreed that a slumpstone wall recessed ten feet with decorative landscaping on the outside would be installed; that the actual station development would set way'back from the frontage; that the sign would comply; that there had been no request for a variance in this Instance; that the station would comply in every regard with the Municipal Code requirements; that the sign which would be a 45 foot high.sign would be to the extreme easterly side of the property with the view in mind that It would be least offensive to the residents that were located on the other side.

Covo regarding the traffic conditions from the Police and Fire Department. Planning Director Chivetta stated that the records of the Police Department on Ituni and Halinor from 1966 to the present date, indicated there had been five 5) occurrences; that most of these had been caused by excessive speed, cross- Ing the double line; that the driver was Intoxicated when the young lady was killed in the head on collision.

Stevens, 1305 South Siesta, West Covina, Inquired if the map on the wall was a finished one as it did not look anything like the property; that there was a big knob of land sticking out there; that there was a curb and sidewalk on Ituni that went out to the end of the knob; that the convalescent hospital sign was on it and a lamp post; that this slowed traffic coming in on the side street there; that she wondered what would happen to the knob of land. Planning Director Chivetta stated the staff were of the opinion that they would leave the knob there; that the applicant would provide landscaping in this area; that at no cost to the City the applicant would put a bench there and it would have a park atmosphere; that the children could sit there while waiting for the school bus; that the sign was on City right..of•-way; that the point of whether the sign was there Illegally or not would have to be clarified.

Mr. Alan Claxton stated that the huge signs that were installed by the service station companies were installed for the purpose of enticing traffic off of the freeway to buy their gasoline; that he did not buy the statement that they would be using existing traffic. M-. George Whittpenn stated that regarding where they Intended to install a bench for the school children to sit there and wait for the bus that there was not room for a school but to stop at that corner; that It had to stop on the far side of ltuni Street. ALAN CLAXTON GEORGE WHITTPENN Mrs. James Lorenzo stated that for 17 years she allowed MRS. JAMES LORENZO the school children to gather in front of her home for the reason that there was no room elsewhere, Mr. James Lorenzo stated that the children that met in front of their home were all in the primary grades; that there were approximately 7 or 8 school bus pick ups. JAMES LORENZO Mr-s. Dorval stated that directly across from the area MRS. DARVAL tractors were tested which came out onto the service road, go in a circle and back into the lot. Councilman McCaron stated that he did not know if there was any other outlet for Halinor other than Dalewood. He asked if the road was developed full width, wherein City Engineer French stated yes, with the exception of curb area; that the curbs were designed by the State for 15 mites an hour; that all of the accidents were attributed to speed or drinking; that the street was adequate to carry the count; that the alignment of this street would require the rear yards of some of these people and would be under the jurisdiction of West Covina. Councilman McCaron stated that the sign that was discussed did give considerable light; that the applicant had stated that they would put their sign on the far eastern corner of the property; that this was approximately 175 feet from the corner; that this would be less objectionable than the existing sign.. He asked what the results of the street design would be If the thumb area were left there. City Engineer French stated that the staff had not proposed any modification of the thumb area; that it was a C inter- section to this curved area as close to a 90 degree inter- section as they could possibly get within the curved area at the time that It was laid out; that they did not propose this kind of development as It did not allow a 90 degree Intersection to this curve; that it would encourage cars Monttnuedl BIB] 39576-U01 1968-U02 01-U02 17-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9994-U03 FO98002-U03 DO117072-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 5/8/2008-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1968 01 17 CC MINHÄ—@¸—4ùÍ«36 85 I I Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council January 17, 1968 Page 13 to go straight on Halinor. As there was no one else In the audience desiring to PUBLIC HEARING speak either in behalf of or in opposition to CP-97, DECLARED CLOSED Mayor Morehead declared the public hearing closed. CP-97 Mayor Morehead stated that up to this point he would not make his decision on this matter solely on the basis of the traffic; that most of the accidents had occurred as the result of crossing a double line; that an accident was likely to occur anytime a driver crossed a double line anywhere. Councilman McCaron stated that the main objection at the previous hearings and also this evening had been to the lighting; that according to the new standards for service station construction in Baldwin Park this would be taken care of; that lighting would not reflect on adjacent properties; that the requirement would be that the sign be of a diffused type of lighting; that the sign would be adjacent to the service station that exists, which was considerable distance from the homes- in West Covina; that the curb, gutter and street devel- opment that would be in front of this property would help as far as traffic was concerned; that he did not know how much traffic came off of Halinor; that there was no way that they could control how much traffic would be on the frontage road; that he did not feel that this development would add to the problem as far as traffic was concerned. Councilman Crites stated that this appeared to be more of a legal problem of whether it fits in with the zoning or whether it fits in with the neighbors convenience; that he was wondering how much truck traffic In this area influences any of the other traffic; that possibly this point should be inves- tigated regardless of this particular case; that he could see no special reasons why this application should be denied. Councilman Gregory stated that she was concerned with the traffic and safety and welfare of the people in this area; that Council could not stand still and not let this property be used to some advantage of the prop- erty owner; that she felt whatever traffic hazards might appear in the future could be taken care of in the usual manner; that she would like a traffic count on this particular street with respect to the number of vehicles passing on this road. Mayor Morehead stated that he could see very little change in arguments from either side over the present application from the last two that Council had reviewed other than the condition that the present applicants would eliminate ingress and egress to Ituni by construc.. ting the block wall. Councilman McCaron Inquired if the streets were developed in the West Covina area with curb, gutter and sidewalk. City Engineer French stated that he thought they had curb and gutter but not sidewalk. Councilman McCaron stated that it appeared the area needed to be studied concerning foot traffic; that if a study were made and possibly a consultation with the City of West Covina that some relief could be obtained for the area.

RUTH BELL,'3000 Park, representing the Palm Villa Home Owners Asso- N. Vineland Ave., B.Pk., ciation Council stated that they were in favor of the sighs as long as there was a restriction against rent- ing; that they agreed with Prudential Savings and Loan that the property had to be sold; that in order to sell It there had to be advertising. Councilman McCaron stated that there was quite a history concerning the selling of Palm Villa; that the sign had been up for approximately five 5) years; that the City had had problems removing signs adjacent to the freeway; that he felt that the Council should do everything pos- sible to make it palatable for, Prudential Savings and Loan to continue to invest in Baldwin Park properties; that he would. like more Information as to what type of- plan they had for selling these apartments; that possi- bly this hearing should be continued to the next meeting. Councilman Crites stated that for as long as he had been on the Council they had been granting six 6) month and twelve i12) month extensions for these signs; that the last time this matter had come before the Council they had granted twelve or fifteen months as a final extension; that this occurred before Prudential Sa$ings.and'Loar. Asso- ciation had purchased the property; that he wondered if this were extended again If the Palm Villa stickers would be stuck all over the City every weekend; that he could recall seeing 125 poster type signs a week stuck all over the place, which was in direct violation of the ordinances. Councilwoman Gregory stated that the gentlemen had express- ed themselves quite well; that they knew their own problem, the fact that It was a condominium; that unfortunately this so called condominium turned out to be an apartment house; that if they were still continuing to sell as condominiums they would fall short of the expectation of the Guying pub- lic; that she felt it was a forever problem"; that she knew that signs would attract and that in time they would sell; that at the moment buying power was at a low ebb; that it could go on another two or three years; that this Council had been very lenient with-the people involved; that the freeway sign was very Impressive; that this did hurt the City as far as landscaping was concerned; that she con- curred with the recoomendation of the Board of Zoning Adjustments and the staff; that in spite of the necessity she felt that the Council should be very careful of what they were doing; that certainly the Council would have to meet them half way for the continuance of sales; that put- ting a sign in every available spot on the property would not do it; that one impressive sign on the property should be of some help; that perhaps Planning Director Chivetta would have some ideas as to an attractive sign. Planning Director Chivetta stated that the existing 240 square foot freeway sign was previously approved by a Variance and by the Council; that this had been contin- ued from time to time; that the two 32 square foot signs were put up without approval; that this was no fault of the existing property owner, but that this was sufficient evidence that the two sighs ShoUld be removed; that the 240 square foot sign should be replaced with a sign not exceed- ing 32 square feet and not exceeding 15 feet In height; that along the freeway signs were limited to 900 square feet of sign face area and in R-1 zones signs were liar ited to 4 square feet; Continued) BIB] 39576-U01 1968-U02 01-U02 17-U02 CC-U02 MIN-U02 LI1-U03 FO9994-U03 FO98002-U03 DO117072-U03 C4-U03 MINUTES1-U03 5/8/2008-U04 ROBIN-U04 REGULAR-U05 SESSION-U05 CITY-U06 COUNCIL-U06 1968 01 17 CC MINHÄ—@¸—4ùÍ«U Regular Meeting of the Baldwin Park City Council that he had no objection to the present property owner maintaining the existing 240 square foot sign and removing the other two nonconforming signs; that this sign could be repainted and should be removed within a specific time period; and a bond presented to the City to insure its removal. Mayor Morehead asked Mr. Sandow if he would accept the recommendation of Planning Director Chivetta for the 240 square foot sign for a certain period of time and to remove the two signs that have an illegal status. Mr. Sandow stated that he was not aware that the two 32 square foot signs had a nonconforming status. Mayor Morehead stated that with the permission of Council he would continue this hearing and refer this back to the Planning Department with the Instruction that they contact the representatives of Prudential Savings and Loan and that this be worked out based upon the last recommendation of Planning Director Chivetta. Mr. Sandow stated he would be glad to do this as the freeway sign was very important.
