The Chairman indicated that this item was opened at the previous
meeting.
John Wells, Architect, and Don Biggs, representing the applicant,
were present.
Mr. Wells addressed the Board and outlined the proposed project.
The Acting Secretary explained the reason for need of a Con-
ditional Exception. The Chairman asked Mr. Wells if flood control
requirements were being met. Mr. Wells stated that they were
working with Orange County Flood Control District and were meeting
all their requirements.
The Acting Secretary stated that Environmental Impact Report
No. 73-7 was adopted by the Environmental Review Board on
May 29, 1973.
Mr. Gerarden requested an explanation of hardship. Mr. Wells
explained that the triangular shape of the property bounded on
all three sides by arterials created the hardship.
Mr. Bob Wilson, President of Maybrook Homeowners Association,
addressed the Board in opposition to the project. He stated
that his reasons for opposition were increase in traffic on
Edinger and Newland, parking problems, additional noise created
by increased traffic, air pollution, and density not compatible
with the area. He further stated that both proposed and alternate
freeway routes would go through the project between five and ten
years, and that the project would be an expense to taxpayers to
condemn and buy for freeway use. He stated that he had a petition
containing in excess of 300 signatures protesting the development.
This was received by the Board.
The Acting Secretary stated that the Highway Division is aware of
the project and if they were interested in acquiring the property
for protection, they would do so.
Doris Hays addressed the Board and inquired about parking the
cars. The Acting Secretary stated that plans met parking require-
ments except that one additional enclosed parking space would be
required.
Mrs. Moser spoke in opposition to the development with regard to
the proposed freeway. She quoted an article which appeared in
the Santa Ana Register June 3rd edition wherein the City Attorney
of Huntington Beach was quoted in regard to overgrowth of the City
of Huntington Beach.
Mr. Gerarden stated that the EIR should be relied upon and this
report had determined there would be insignificant environmental
damage overall.
