prevention be explored. It is recommended the venture be directed by
the City Manager, so that all resources for programming, organization
and funding can be determined.
The curriculum will include parenting classes. If parents become

unique approach.

REPORTS FROM
BOARDS. COMMITTEES AND COMMISSIONS 5.1 Recort
on Master Procertv Tax Aareement for Annexations. TAPE 1275 (A2100.0
No. 637)The City Manager'
s Senior Assistant reported the County Administrative Office recommended
the Board of Supervisors rescind its ten-year-
old Master Property Tax Agreement with the City of Anaheim
at its January 29th meeting. The motion failed. However,the
item presents cities with large undeveloped areas within their spheres
of influence with considerable concern.The
League of Cities sent a letter to the Board of Supervisors objecting
to the reopening of Master Property Tax Agreements. The CAO
plans to request the Board of Supervisors authorize cancellation and
re-negotiation of Master Property Tax Agreements with other
cities. The 1980 Master Property Tax Agreement has for more than ten
years governed the reapportionment of the 1% basic propety tax levyinformerlyunincorporatedareasuponannexationoftheseareasinto
cities.
The cancellation of existing agreements could cost the city as much
as $5.7 million in general fund revenues each year. This would be
such a significant revenue loss to the city that the annexation of
the entire East Orange General Plan area would have to be
reconsidered. The Mayor has sent a letter to the Chairman of the
Board of Supervisors outlining the city's concerns and Councilmember
Coontz has proposed a resolution to orange County Division of the
League of California Cities seeking support of member cities for a
united stand against the CAO proposal.

5. REPORTS FROM BOARD. COMMITTEES AND COMMISSIONS (Continued)
In addition to the potential revenue losses in East Orange,
cumulative revenue losses for annexations of County island areas
could also be of significance. until the financial underpinings of
these annexations are secured, or recommitment of the County to
adhere to the 1980 Master Property Tax Agreement, it is recommended
that the processing of pending and future island annexations
involving residential land uses be put on hold.
shirley Grindle, 19051 Glen Arran, spoke in support of the City's
position on this issue. However, she does not feel these small
annexations should be discontinued by the city. The city Manager
commented that these small annexations cost the city more in services
than they pay in taxes.
Leroy G. Roberts, 20381 Amapola, spoke in favor of continuing the
small residential island annexations.

and to direct Community Development staff to process residential

Carol Walters, 534 N. Shaffer, wants to know what action the Council
is planning to take with Chapman College getting permits if they want
to go higher. She feels they should be denied permits to go higher
up, rather than having to tear down in the future because it does not
go along with the specific plan. The Director of community
Development indicated Chapman College has been notified that an
appeal is in progress.
Council questioned whether they have received this information in
writing. The Director of Community Development indicated the college
has received a letter directed to the President inviting them to
participate in the Planning Commission Appeal meeting on April lst.
It does indicate that the activity currently underway on the
dormitory building is proceeding at risk.
Councilman Steiner indicated the appeal is based upon a possible
violation of the Chapman College specific Plan. There are too many
driveways off Grand going into the residence hall project. There are
some other issues in question as well.
Bob Bennyhoff, 10642 Morada Drive, feels they should go directly to
the man giving the orders, George Argyros, Chairman of the Board of
Trustees. Councilman steiner reported that he has met with Mr.
Argyros recently, along with the Director of Community Development.
Councilwoman Coontz questioned whether Chapman College has changed
the population projections for the new college, which may be .
different from the specific plan. The Director of Community
Development was directed to look into the matter.
Councilman Spurgeon expressed concern over the impact on traffic in
the area and wants Council to direct Traffic Department staff to
conduct a traffic study. Meredith J. Martini, 636 E. Walnut,
reported a traffic counter was recently installed on Grand Street.
The Director of Community Development commented that they have put a
General Plan Map of the City of Orange in Council Chambers at the
request of Council. He wants Council input and comments on whether
this map will be satisfactory.

HEARINGS 12.1
PROHIBIT ON-STREET PARKING IN RESIDENTIAL AREAS DURING STREET SWEEPING
OPERATIONS. CITY OF ORANGE: TAPE 390 (S4000.S.3.1)Time
set for a public hearing on petition by the city of Orange to consider
a city-wide ordinance to prohibit on-street parking for
four hours weekly in residential areas during street sweeping
operations.The city Traffic Engineer reported a few years ago, the City
Council approved a recommendation of the Traffic Engineering Division
that allowed, through a petition process initiated by adjacent
property owners or tenants, the prohibition of parking for street
sweeping purposes, since parked vehicles prevent the street sweepers
from picking up the accumulated
deposits.The city Traffic Commission recommends the parking restriction
for street sweeping purposes be expanded to a city-wide
mandated program and that staff be directed to develop a format schedule
and cost assessment for implementation. Implementation would take
about three years to complete. Staff recommends this item be budgeted
for the next fiscal year, since it will take 3-4 months before
they could be ready to begin implementation. The purpose is
to provide the residents with a service that they are
already paying for.Council questioned how many cities have this program
in place. The City Traffic Engineer indicated many cities have
this program in place, although the implementation is done in
different ways. The Mayor questioned whether the program could be
completed any sooner;staff did not feel that it could be with
existing staffing
levels.

12. PUBLIC HEARINGS (Continued)
Council expressed strong support of using minimal signage in order to
avoid sign pollution. It was also felt that warnings should be
issued at the start of the program, rather than ticketing
immediately.
Mayor Beyer opened the Public Hearings:
Dan Slater, 278 N. pine street, spoke in favor of the project. He
feels it is very inefficient when the sweepers cannot do their job
because of parked cars. He speaks in favor as a realtor, resident
and member of the Beautification committee. Clean streets are
important to the city both environmentally and aesthetically. He
feels it would discourage seldom-used and abandoned cars
and recreational vehicles. It takes a lot of time to get the
petitions signed and many people are in favor of the program but do not
have the time to do
this.Lois Barke, 2022 Spruce, spoke against the program. She feels
that many people are not aware that hearings were being held on
the program tonight. Many residents have more vehicles because of
older children living at home and not enough parking space.
Many apartments do not have parking
included.Council questioned if there have been any problems in areas where
the program has been implemented. Staff reported there have been
no complaints and they receive 15-20 calls per week asking
why the street sweeper went down the middle of the street,
rather than sweeping along
the curbs.Councilman Spurgeon commented that Council must look at
the most cost-effective way of doing this over a period of
time. Many people want the program but do not have the time to
circulate the petitions.The street sweeper wasn't designed to clean the crown
of the street,it was designed to clean the curbs. It does get cars
off the street once a week, so there is less of a problem with
abandoned or stored vehicles. If there are exceptions at a later date,
they should be considered on
a case-by-case basis.Mayor
Beyer

hearings.MOTION
