Community Development Director Bruckner addressed the
Hearing stating that this item stems from a decision of
Planning Commission, appealed by Council regarding utilizing
'the old Price Club building for use as an international
bazaar under the requirements of an indoor swap meet. The
appeal was based upon concerns with parking, impact on other
commercial uses, additional revenues, security measures,
evacuation plan, and preference for Azusa vendors. Staff
discussed items of concern with the applicant who agreed
that an admissions fee could be imposed and that some type
of preference to Azusa vendors could be addressed through
the Owner Participation Agreement with the Redevelopment
Agency. The area behind the old Price Club building could
be paved for additional parking. He further stated that the
impact on businesses would be minimal because the types of
retailers or services would be different than the ones
occupying space in a retail center.
Lengthy discussion regarding the pros and cons of the
proposed bazaar between Council, Staff and the applicants.
The pros as presented by the proponents were that there
would be no competition to the City businesses and that they
would insure disciplined activities. The cons were that
this would be impossible to accomplish and it would be an
uncoordinated and undisciplined activity. Testimony in
favor of the International Bazaar were: Joe Lan of Korn,
Wasser and Freiedman Development and David Roberts,
Chairman of the International Bazaar Trade Center.
Testifying in opposition to the International Bazaar were:
Art Morales, Lyle Moritz, Ed Seidner, Ron Legault and Robert
