denial and require the removal of all outdoor storage
and illegal signs within seven days of Council action.
Jay Bond, ABH Architects, Tustin, representative for the
discount furniture store located at the subject address,
stated that the signs were recommended by a local sign
painter and that his client.was assured the signs were
in conformance with the City Code, however, he agreed
to remove the illegal signs.
Mr. Bond further stated that the outdoor furniture
display was necessary for the business to survive in the
present economic climate, and that there was a need for
sight exposure from the south. He also mentioned that
the Star Bicycle store on Newport Boulevard had been
granted permission for outdoor display of bicycles and
felt that his request was:simila.r.
Mr. Bond read two� letters.. from customers of the discount
furniture store; Lois Newel=l of Newport Beach and Mrs.
D. Burke, -supporting the`ou-tdoor display. He also
referred to a newspaper article which indicated that the
City of Orange -had -decided on`a 90 -day moratorium of
their ordinance-relati-ng to --prohibition of certain
business signs.
Councilwoman Hertzog expressed her opinion that since
bicycles typically belong on the street, and furniture
does not, that'there was a great distinction between
the two types of displays.
Councilman Johnson stated that it was imperative that
the Council uphold the guidelines established by the
city.
A motion was made by Councilman Johnson to deny Zone
Exception ZE-82-49. The motion was seconded by Vice
Mayor Hall, and carried 5-0.

meeting. Mr. Kelleher agreed to go through the proper
procedure.
Councilwoman Hertzog announced that she is reversing her
previous decision not to seek another term of office on
the Council, and will run for re-election in November,
1982.
Banning of Vice Mayor Hall read a letter he received from Lewis
Fireworks and Dinger supporting the banning of fireworks within the
Shake Roofs City. The letter pointed out the extreme danger of
fireworks especially to houses with shake roofs and
referred to the recent fire in the City of Anaheim
