APPELLANT: Terry Galloway/Morse Consulting Group/Richard Nerio
LOCATION: 5141 Warner Avenue (North side of Warner Avenue approximately 600
feet east of Bolsa Chica Street).
ZONE: Meadowlark Specific Plan
RE UEST: Meadowlark Master Plan showing general distribution of residential
densities (600 units), street alignments, trail system and daycare center
location. Appeal is to the Planning Commission's replacement of Medium —High
Density Residential with Low Density Residential for a 100 foot deep strip on
the east side of Roosevelt Lane.
ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS: Covered by Environmental Impact Report No. 87-2, certi—
fied by City Council on February 1, 1988.

Kathy Meyer spoke regarding the concerns of the residents on the west side and
stated the density of the Meadowlark Master Plan was too high and that it was
already an overly impacted rental area. She stated she believed the R-2 and
R-3 density should be divided into different areas.
Sally Graham spoke in opposition to the Meadowlark Conceptual Master Plan.
She stated she believed it should be denied and sent back to the Planning
Commission. She distributed a copy of the Neighborhood Watch to the Council
and asked them to consider the already existing crime in the quadrant directly
west of the neighborhood. She requested Council to avoid duplicating the same
density situation of R-2 and R-3, stating that dividing the density would not
impact the density allowed the developer.
Cher le Browning stated the vote of the Planning Commission on the Meadowlark
Master Plan was a tie so she believed the appeal was improper and should be
returned to the Planning Commissioner. She spoke of her concern about the
impact of putting the highest density in one area next to an overdeveloped R-2
parcel.
Mark Browning stated he believed the R-3 area should be split up to lesson the
impact of the higher density. He referred to packet material that listed
changes requested by the homeowners pertaining to building heights, windows in
balconies, and set backs. He requested it be returned to the Planning
Commission; that the issue of turns on Pearce Street for traffic at the
setbacks should be addressed.
Terry Galloway, representing the applicant, stated they had met with the staff
and that they object to condition l.c. that adds a strip of single-family
homes. He stated that he believed good planning would put R-3 next to
commercial.
Greg Wohl, representing Robert Mayer Corporation, spoke in support of deleting
condition l.c. and to uphold the appeal.
There being no one present to speak further on the matter and there being no
further protests either written or oral the hearing was closed by the Mayor.
A motion was made by MacAllister, seconded by Kelly, to uphold the appeal and
approve the Meadowlark Master Plan with the replacement of Condition of
Approval l.c and with modifications to condition 10 which means that Pierce
and Roosevelt will have their improvements along with the Phase II movement as
indicated, with findings and conditions of approval.
A motion was made by Winchell, seconded by Green, to amend the main motion to
uphold the appeal and approve the commercial portion of Meadowlark Master Plan
and send the remainder of the Master Plan back to the Planning Commission for
further recommendation, not replacing condition l.c. The motion FAILED by
