PROPON~T'S Robert Rick. les, 611 W. 8th Street, attoruey
TESTIMONY representing the Rohrs and ~eller interests,
reviewed a report of Ruth & Krushchk~v
which indicated that Santa Ana's population
would double in the next 16 years, and that the eight units to an acre should
increase by necessity to 12 units an acre. He cited a Pl-n~ing Department
survey indicatfng that apartments yield less children per unit than single
homes; compared property values, tax production, and public services for R 1
and R 4 developments; cited sales records of properties adjacent to other
garden apartments, showing an increase in values; and cited other R 4 develop-
ments adjacent to R 1.
CITY COUNCIL - 391 - May 21, 1964
~lr. Rick. les read frcu the D. D. Hillyard engineering report a statement that
the ~ost logical use of the property would be suburban apartment dwellings;
noted that R i develol~ent would result in homes of $40,000 in an area where
average value is $18,000.
Mr. Riekles displayed a drawing of the proposed architectural design of ~ units
to appear as a large single hame and submitted a petition bearing approx~--tely
~2 signatures favoring the rezonin~; On motion of Councilman Eubbard, seconded
'by Councilman Schlueter and carried, the petition was received and ordered
filed.
OPPONENTS Nathan Tart, 90S E. Avalon,
TESTIMONY representing s~,~- property owners
opposing the rezoning, referred to
Section 9~5 of the Santa Aaa
Municipal 0o4~, stating that public necessity, convenience and welfare must be
affected befOre a zoning cha-_-e could be initiated, requirements which he felt
ware not met. Mr. Tart questionei whether proper notice of the hearing had been
given, an~ accepted Counei~m-n Eabbard's explanation that there are alternative
methods of notifying l~COperty owners, and one of these had been met;
Eerwin ~acobs, 915 E. Avalon, ~escribed the area with the aid of charts, point-
ing out buffers established by the COuncil between the R 1 area and Guaranty.
ChevrOlet, and referred to a Pla-~tng Department report of 1960 which he felt
refuted moat of Mr. Rick. les' contentions.
Walter Earwood, 2110 Santiago, stated that he had been an appraiser for twelve
years an~, in his opinion, apartment ~evelo~ment in an R 1 zone devaluates the
R 1 properties; cited Buffalo Street houses at $~0,000 as an example that R 1
development is feasible in the area.
Walter Neubrander, 1202 E. 3uffalo, with graphs of vacancy rates in Santa Aaa
for apartments an~ single homes, indicated shortage of single hcmes available
conpared to apartments.
Gene Westmyer, 20th and Santiago, expressed fear that approval of this develop-
merit would lead to other apartments. Also. speaking in opposition were Mrs.
john Madden, 2ll~ Poinsettia; Clark Bertram, 2405 N. Hathaway Lane; Robert
l~udson, 120~ E. Avalon; and Mrs. Russell Macy, 1720 Santiago.
A. H. Jones, 910 E. Santa Clara, expressed doubt that increased assessed values
of apartment develolmzent would offset increase in governmental services. Howard
Parker, 702 E. Santa Clara, commented on traffic problems that would result
from R ~ development.
Richard segerblom, 923 E. Jonquil Road, quoted Planning Department regarding
community pride encouraged by individ,,~ home ownership. Harry Craig, 806
E. Catalina, pointed out apartments referred to by Mr. Rickles are on another
sectional district map and that subject property is surrounded by R 1 or R 1 B
and does not ad. Join any C ~. Mrs. Janice Boer, 912 N. Lowell, commented on
owners in southeast desiring rezoning for apartments, and the lack of high grade
R 1 area.
P~UTTAL Mr. Rickles interpreted Santa Aha
Municipal Code Section 9255 regarding
public necessity, convenience, and
welfare to apply to the Council or
C~-..~sion initiating proceedings on their own motions and not to verified
applications. He noted the project is economically sound or the lending
agencies would not approve; noted that responsible persons live in apartments
as well as single homes; cited the apartment development at Warner and Raitt
as being surrounded by R 1. There being no further testimony, the hearing was
closed.

pattern of iadustr~-~ ~evelolm~nt now exists, and stressed the importance of
keeping the area intact for industries. Ne also reviewed the history of the
Zonin~ 0rd~nance, statin~ that industries that had moved into the area had
been led to believe they would be protected from residential encroachment.
l~obert Our~is, 121 E. 6th Street, Los Angeles, attorney for the Santa Fe
Railway, spoke in opposition to the proposed rezoning, stating that Santa And
is ripe for industrial developaent. Mr. Stevens, Acting Pla-ning Director,
stated ~t the p.l,,,~-4~ consultant did not propose any land
