Councilmember McGuigan related constituent concerns that certain events at City parks create a <br />parking problem in adjacent neighborhoods and requested City Attorney Fletcher to investigate <br />possible mitigation measures such as establishing temporary "permit parking only" areas in <br />impacted neighborhoods during those events. <br /> <br />Councilmember Lutz: <br /> <br />described the attractions to be featured at the Santa Ana Cemetery Memorial <br />Day celebration including vintage WWII aircraft (a P-51 Mustang and a B-25) <br />and an 1890 Gatlin gun; <br /> <br />announced the Santa Ana Historical Society Home & Garden Tour would <br />be held on May 31 and June 1, 1997 to raise funds for the Society's efforts <br />to preserve Santa Ana's historic buildings; <br /> <br />- requested staff to look into a blighted condition at 1043 W. Civic Center; <br /> <br />indicated Councilmember Moreno's earlier query (which the Mayor referred <br />to staff) may have been prompted by the Bristol Park project and the affected <br />residents' request for the required project landscaping to be located within <br />their neighborhood; <br /> <br />- commended Alberta Christy for her work on the recent "Celebrate Santa <br /> Ana" neighborhood associations' family picnic at Centennial Park. <br /> <br />In response to Councilmember Franklin's queries, City Attorney Fletcher and Planning & Building <br />Agency Executive Director Uptegraff explained the City's historical building ordinance largely <br />ensured structural integrity, and historical building aesthetics, such as color and facade, could be <br />regulated through the General Plan Conservation Element. Franklin also: <br /> <br />reported receiving a rash of complaints about South Main Street area mail <br />boxes being broken into and urged the media, particularly the Spanish-language <br />media, to warn their readers about the increasing incidence of mail theft; <br /> <br />relayed requests from the Sandpointe, Morrison, and West Floral Park <br />neighborhoods for landscaped walls and suggested staff meet with <br />representatives from these neighborhoods, including the Hana Kiki <br />Apartments' owner; <br /> <br />- reported "Pick Up Stix," a new Chinese restaurant, had recently opened at <br /> Bristol and Memory Lane; and <br /> <br />- urged Santa Ana residents to support and patronize Santa Ana businesses. <br /> <br />CITY COUNCIL MINUTES <br /> <br />164 <br /> <br />MAY 19, 1997 <br /> <br /> <br />
