Said property is located on the east side of Red Hill Avenue approximately 300 ft. southeasterly of Mitchell Avenue consisting of 4.75 acres. (COMPLETE TRANSCRIPT ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK.) Mr. Fleagle presented the staff report and the recommendations of the Planning ~ommission that this zone change be approved subject to the conditions set forth by the City Engineer and the Fire Chief, review and final approval of the development by the Development Preview lCommittee, and that the plans and renderings-be a part of the approved application. Mr. Fleagle read a letter from Joe Sinnoth, Chairman of the Board, Brighton Terrace Homeowners Association, recommending Council approval. He also requested that if the Council ap- proves uhis zone change that the revised plans be referred to the Planning Commission for report prior to adoption of the Ordinance. Hearing opened at 7:40 p.m. Mr. William Zink, 18002 Brice Place, Santa Ana, developer and co-owner with Bill Batty, stated his reasons for this zone change request stating that his ob]ecu is to build some- thing between a garden apartment and the Usual two-story apartment and something there is a market for. He had dagigned these units with consideration to protect the adjacent prgp- ert~ ~W~ ~hd had talked to mos= of the surrounding ~ ,~: 5-4-70 Page 2 He showed plans gs of the proposed developmhnt and explained the changes in zhe plans s~nce presented to the Planning Commission. The land coverage is approximately the same as origina! plans but they have changed from 67 to 48 one-bedroom apartments, 27 to 40 two-bedroom apartments, and from 9 to 15 ba~chetor apartments. They alSe~ 8 three- bedroom apartments. They have also changed the pool areas from each end of the development to the center area with a recreation building and sundeck. Mr. Zink stated there was more than the required parking according the City Ordinance. There being no objections or further comments the hearing was declared closed at 7:58 p.m. The Council discussed the density of this project and the parking facilities. The concensus of the Council being that this is as fine an R-3development as can be pu~ to- gether, but than they were concerned with the density and with the number of parking spaces. Realizing that it does conform with the existing Ordinance, the Council believed that when placing PC (Planned Community) on a zone, they could require the amount of parking they deemed necessary. Moved by Councilman Oster~ seconded by Councilman C. Miller that Zone Change ZC 70-211 not be approved. The Council discussed further the density of the surrounding area, the effects of returning this to the Planning Commission for further comments, economics of the development as related no density, etc. Mr. Gill was asked to present to the Council an as built report of the density of other developments in the area by the next Council meeting. Mr. Flea~te suggested that if the Council takes the position of continuing this they should reverse the action of the Plan- ning Commission regarding their approval of County initiated zone change to change zoning from Red Hill to Browning on Nisson Road to R-2 and R-3. The Council requested a staff report on what it means ~o live with the parking standards as set forth in the presenz Ord- inance and what Tustin wants. Moved by Marsters~ seconded by L. Miller that ZC 70-211 be referred back to the Planning Commission for further evaluation. Carried unanimously. Mayor Coco requested that a verbatim transcript be sent tO the Plapning Commission. Mayor Coco referred then to the Planning Commission action on the Red Hill, Nisson and Browning communication ~o the County. Mr. Fleagle explained that the County Planning staff initiated a zone change from C-1 to R-2 and R-3 on the property bounded by Red Hill,and Nisson. The County had called a conference of the property owners involved and reviewed the proposal. Following ~his they had advertised a public hearing to effect the zone change. The Tustin Planning Commission had replied to the notice that they felt it was in keeping with the desire to prevent the strip commercial that was now permissible and they endorsed the proposal. In answer to questioning, Mr. Gill explained that this in- cludes the property jus~ south of the gas station on Red Hill and goes around the corner and down Nisson to Browning. In answer to questioning, Mr. Flea~le stated tha~ ~he General Plan density indicates medium density which [s a maximum of · 3.oq city co,, ci 5-~--70 Page 3 14 units per acre. A lot of this land is already developed --there is a trailer park which he thought was probah~ly close to an R-4. He believed the hearing on this was to be held this week and to the Board of Supervisors in atleast ten days. Mr. Fleagle said that most of this frontage property~is zoned C-1 and it does non appear that the County is about to take C-1 zoning from the owners for R-4 or residential. Councilman C. Miller said that on the face of it they could not develop commercially--Nisson Road goes nowhere. He said he was most concerned with the property that backs up to Quent Drive and Rosalie. Mayor Coco stated that perhaps the Council should confine themselves to this portion. The Council had already dis- cussed the parcel along Browning and de~ided because of the property itself that it needs certain zoning. He did not think it weakens the City's position to take a genezal stand supporting the General Plan, but it might be more useful for the Council to address itself at this point to the parcel northerly of Quent and Rosalie. Moved by C. Miller~ seconded by L. Miller that the Council direct a letter to the County Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors ppposing rezonin~ of that particular piece of property northerly of Quent Drive and Rosalie Place for an increase of density to R-2 and R-3 as being incom- patible with the adjacent R-1 zone and more in keeping with the zones southerly going down Red Hill. Carried. 2. UP 70-339 - APPEAL OF THE DECISION OF THE PLANNING COM- MISSION. ~ Appeal of the decision of the Planning Commission on Application of L. Dennis Huchison on behalf of W. L. Sneed and Ben Fiore for a' Use Permit (UP 70-339). Appeal is requesting consideration on that portion of the the application pertaining to the installation of a giant space pillow in conjunction with existing mini- ature golf ~ourse on leased property known as 721 West First Street. Mr. Fleaale presented staff report and staff recommendation that the appeal for consideration on the portion of the Use Permit pertaining to installation of the giant space pillow be approved subject to the conditions set forth by the Fire Department, adequate insurance as approved by the City Attorney, the dedication of additional street right-of-way as stipulated by the City Engineer and site review by ~he Development Preview Committee. Hearing opened at 9:00 p.m. Mr. W. Tadlock, 135 Myrtle Avenue, Tustin, presented a letter of objection. (Letter read by the Clerk.) Mr. Ben Flora, president of Sir Goony Golf, s~ated that since the last hearing he had spoken to the Fire Marshal and he would be happy to comply with recommendations. He stated ~hat the space pillow is moveable. It takes just four moorings and is moved indoors every evening. He stated he would want ~o ~a~se ~he toeag~On o~i~i~att~ planned for ~he pi~to~ and Dta~e it in the area originally planned for tl~e c~rs. There being no further objections or comments the hearing was declared closed at 9:10 p.m. Mr. Fleaale stated that if the pillow ~s moved out of the center it could be distracting and he woul~ ]·~ok- it in a different light if moved to ~he exterior of the dcvc2ol~ment. Also, if City Council 5-4-70 Page 4 moved they would lose nine parking spaces and there would be more hazards~ The pillow is inside a ten~ which does help to confine:'the noise. The Council was concerned with the noise factor, safety factors, closeness to apartments to the east, t-r~ff/~c and parking and the concern of the Fire Chief that no auzo- mobiles be parked near this tent as well as the visibility of the pillow and tent from First Street, as.well as the " neighbors ~nMyrtle. In answer to questioning, Mr. Fiore said this part of the facility would not be open during weekdays and therefore would not annoy the professional building and would only be open as late as 11:00 p.m. on Friday and Saturday nights during summer. months. He did not think the pillow would take up more than two parking spaces if on the exterior portion of the proper~y and would be safer as the location would offer more con- trol. It would Still be approximately 200 ft, from FirsZ Street, 170 ft from apartments and 50 ft. fromMyrtle. Councilman L. Miller stated that the City should encourage recreation for youth. Moved by L. Miller that space pillow be approved with final location subject to approval of the Planning Corfmission and the Fire Chief, and compliance with items in Ehe Planning Com- mission minutes and staff recommendations as se~ forth in the staff report. Motion failed for lack of a~second. In answer to further questioning, Mr. Fiore said the tent would --- be about 15 ft. high. The pillow itself is about 18 inches from the ground and there is nothing combustible. He also said he would prefer the excerior location but if necessary could live with it in the interior. Councilman Oster felt that the Planning Commission should review the changes in parking and location. Moved by Oster~ seconded by Marsters that the matter be sent back to the Planning Commission for further consideration. Mayor Coco stated that consideration of a split in the application had been considered and denied. He would be willing to go for the pillow if in the interior of the project. This is an amusement park and not an extension of a commercial use. He would objec~ ~o sending this back to the Planning Commission since nothing new would be gained. Above motion and second withdrawn. Moved by Oster~ seconded by C. Miller that the decision of the Plannin5 Commission be upheld. In answer ~o Mr. Oster, Mr. Rourke said this would not --- deny the applicant the rkght to re-apply ~o the Commission. Councilman Osier stated that he is still not satisfied that the Planning Commission had the full presentation for the pillow alone. He said he would probably objec~ zo this in either location. It i~ the extension of a non-conforming use that the Commission should rule on. The Council agreed nhat they could not visualize this a~ this location~nd did not know at what distance it would be visible and short of seezng it and hearing it, thhy could not vote for it. Mr. Fiore felt sure that the manufacturer would be willing ~ brinB on~ here f~ viewinB, ,, 11 City Council 5-4-70 Page 5 Moved by Marsters~ seconded by L.

The church has been looking for another site and has found the"corner of Red Hill and Irvine Boulevard. It appears that if this property is zoned commercial, they can sell and buy the other site. They understand the City's objection uo commercial and feel this recommendation of the Planning Commission will give them the opportunity to sell and would be the best for the church and the City.
