Moved by Councilman Cooney, seconded by Councilman Decker that both hearings (a) and (b) be considered jointly. The City Clerk presented the Affidavits of Proof of Publication of the Notices of each Public Hearing, pub- lished in the Azusa Herald on 11/5/69, and his Afiidavits of Posting of each hearing on 11/4/69. The Acting Planning Director submitted a memo for each public hearing. A memo was received from the Planning Commission, recom- mending approval of the zone change from R -3b to M-2 (Case Z-157). Re: Case C-92, Planning Commission's memo explained its reasons for Conditions #9, #101 #14, #15, and #16, as set forth in their Resolution No. 820. Anthony La Fetra, 5235 N. Citrus Ave., president of Sierra Screw Products, appeared before Council and ex- plained that the company was a subsidiary of Rain Bird Sprinkler Manufacturing Corp. and what it produced. He further informed Council that when the plant is ultimately constructed, it would provide over 1,000 jobs. He in- dicated to Council that of the sixteen (16) conditions in the Conditional Use Permit granted by Planning Com- mission Resolution #820, one condition, namely #15, which dealt with noise detection at the property line by a person of normal capabilities, was the condition they were appealing. In order to reduce any possibility of nuisance by noise and vibration, they had switched the plant layout from that which was proposed to the Planning Commission; where the foundry would be located at Todd Avenue on the southerly boundary of their property. Gary Lachman, 7638 N. Banna, Glendora, also of Sierra Screw Products, explained to Council that the present operation on Motor Avenue used gas for its foundry heat and that the new plant would use all electric foundry heat, thereby reducing the noise level. Also, that the present buildings are steel and that the new buildings will be concrete tilt -up, thereby reducing noise trans- mission. In reply to questions from Council regarding smoke and smell emissions, he stated that the Air Pol- lution Control District regulations on smoke emissions are very stringent and protect the citizens. Presently at the Motor Avenue location, there has been no object- ionable odors, to his knowledge. AZUSA AUDITORIUM AZUSA, CALIFORNIA MONDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1969 Mr. S. Ballentine, 5455 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles, attorney for Rain Bird Sprinkler Manufacturing Corp., addressed Council and explained that actually Condition #15 is more of a legal problem than a practical problem. He indicated that present laws of the State of California were sufficient to protect the citizens against the nuisance of noise. He contended the problem with Condition #15 is that it makes the Conditional Use Permit so tenuous ' as to make any future planning infeasible. Don Olejnik, 1241 N. Dalton Ave., addressed Council in opposition to the present zone change stating he felt that this particular parcel of land could be used for a better purpose than a factory. He felt that the Council should be concerned with the establishment of industrial parks rather than allowing factories to be built on scattered pieces of available land; that this site in particular, due to proxim- ity of the golf course, would be better utilized for family apartments or residences, and not for manufacturing. Marvin Christensen, 1018 Old Mill Rd., addressed Council in opposition, on the basis that if the applicants were willing to go to the expense, and to suffer the loss of square footage within their buildings, to completely change their site plans, then it stands to reason that there must be a nuisance problem. He suggested to Council that it in- vestigate the present Motor Avenue operations to find out for itself the noise and odor problems, if any, at the present location. The Mayor responded with the statement that the Council and Planning Commission were aware of the present location 'and the foundry. It was noted by Council that the proposed site plan as presented at this hearing was different from that which was presented to the Planning Commission, and thereby required that the matter be referred back to the Planning Commission for review and report.
