Additionally, the requirement for forced ventilation is reasonable
in view of the lesser number of openings provided in common wall
residential units as opposed to standard detached residential
dwellings even though both units may have the same floor area
(1200 - 1300 square feet).
For the above reasons, it is requested that the City Council
reimpose the aforementioned conditions if it is appealed to that
Body.

MISCELLANEOUS
Scenic HiRhway DesiRnation at Goldenwest Street
Commissioner Wallin stated that at the time information was provided
to the Planning Commission on February 27, 1973, outlining the
procedure to designate Goldenwest Street as a Scenic Highway she
felt this was an information item only,,,4nd.did not understand an
action to pursue a Scenic Highway designafion would negate the
previous Commission's decision to initiate change of zone along
Goldenwest Street to M-l-A light industrial district.
Commissioner Bazil stated that he felt it had to be the Commission's
intent to pursue amendments to the M-1 district rather than to
blanket the area with a M-l-A zone. However, it was his feeling
that both courses of action would be pursued, to the M-1 district
as well as the Scenic Highway designation.
Commissioner Kerins concurred with Commissioner Bazills interpre-
tation.
The Acting Secretary will investigate the progress made by Staff
on the M-1 Code Amendment and report back to the Commission.
Further discussion followed.
Commissioner Wallin outlined three possible courses of action as
outlined:
1. Designation of Goldenwest as Scenic Highway could not be
accomplished prior to 19741.
r
2. Amendments to the M-1 District.

matter of transportation within the City of Huntington Beach.

Director Mr. Ken Reynolds at 9 A.M. on July 9, 1973.
Central City Park - Environmental Impact Statement

fencing which may be imposed by the City Council on the perimeter
of the park will be of a lesser quality and will not meet standards
required of private developers.
With reference to a possible realignment of Talbert Avenue in the
Central Park area, Commissioner Porter recommended as a possible
alternative Talbert be curved down to Gothard and then redirected
along Ellis or a modified alignment of Ellis to a terminus at
Bolsa Chica Road.
