Huntington Beach, for a conditional use permit to allow
automobile heating, electrical, and air conditioning repair
within 200 feet of a residential zone, and for retail sales of

communications were received. The Associate Planner
reviewed the Agenda Report dated March 5, 1998.
David Baade, 611 Anton Boulevard, Suite 1260, Costa Mesa,
attorney representing the applicant, submitted a petition
containing 10 signatures from the surrounding neighbors and
businesses who were in support of the proposed use. He
stated that this project is not a typical automotive repair
facility because it is limited to only heating, electrical, and air
conditioning, and business would be conducted from 8:00
a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. He disagreed with
the Planning Commission's finding that the project is not
substantially compatible with the developments in that area.

C2 zone abuts the mobile home park. Mr. Baade believed
that the subject project would not negatively impact the
surrounding properties and asked that Council overturn the
Planning Commission's denial.
Bernadette Aberts, BMA Consulting, 16835 Algonquin Street,
Suite 301, Huntington Beach, property manager for the site,

regarding the .land swap that took place in the 1980's
between` the owners of the site in question and property at

prefers to retain the chain link fence which was installed to
rectify the vandalism and graffiti problem at the rear of the
building (Condition No. 9).
Antonio Caselini, 2901 West Pacific Coast Highway, Newport
Beach, stated that the nature of his business would not
involve any mechanical work and all of the repair work would
be conducted inside. .He pointed out that the chain Link fence_
does not encroach into the public right-of-way.
Robert Graham, 3260 Dakota Avenue, Costa Mesa, felt that
West 19" Street could attract more appropriate businesses if
there were improved access from the end of the 55 Freeway
to Huntington State -Beach.
Dan West, 1920 Maple Avenue, Costa Mesa, opposed any
automotive repair facility'at this location.

Roland Clark, 22052 Islander Lane, Huntington Beach,
believed that the City should consider using the National
Certification Examination for Therapeutic Massage and
Bodywork.

that the test would satisfy the needs for the City.

y

of prostitution or false diplomas from illegitimate educational
institutes.
Dr. Mike Hungerford, 204 East 161`' Place, Costa Mesa,
Chancellor of the American Institute of Massage Therapy,
2156 Newport Boulevard, Costa Mesa, supported the idea of
the Police Department administering the test; however, she

Certification Examination because it addresses various types
of massage.
A resident at 1730 West Martha Lane, Santa Ana, supported
use of the National Certification Examination.

the Police Department has done and thought that the
