Home My WebLink About2003-06-27 - Newport Mesa Daily PilotServing the Newport-Mesa community since 1907 FRIDAY, JUNE 27, 2003 Ruling ntay 01ean D.A. drops case Supreme Court strikes down law allowing prosecution of old sex crimes. Former Costa Mesa pastor was arrested under law. Deep• Bharath Daily Pilot COSTA MESA -A Supreme Court decision on Thursday to strtke down a California law that allows prosecution of old sex crimes may force the Orange County district attorney's office to drop Its case against a former pastor of a Cosca Mesa chun:h accused of molesting a local boy about 25 years ago. ln a 5-4 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that the government cannot retroactively erase stat· utes of limitations, a defeat for prosecutors · trying to pursue people accused of sex abuse, of- ficials said. The law was chal- lenged by Marion Stogner, a 72· year-old man accused of mo- lesting his daughters when they were children. Stogner is among hundreds of people charged under a 1994 California law that changed the statute of limitations for some sex offenses. The decision is "frustrating and disappointing" to prosecu- tors, said Assistant Dist. Atty. Rosanne Froeberg, who super- vises the district attorney's sex- ual assault unit. "But we have to be respectful of the Supreme Court's deci- sion,• she said. Froeberg said her office is double-checking. pulling out old ftles and reviewing cases to find out if any such accused of- fenders have been found guihy in the past and are spending time in prison. wlf SO, we need to put them back through the court process so it can be determined if the Supreme Court's decision tS go· ing to affect their case,· she said. Most of the cases are ·prob- lematic,· especially the one in- volving 68-year-old Denis Lyons, who served as pastor of St. John the Baptist Oturch on Baker Street for 18 ye~. He was ar· rested by Costa Mesa Police on April 25 in his Seal Beach home and charged with one count of performing a lewd and lascivi- ous act against a chlld younger than 16 and four counts of oral copulauon -all felonies. Police said the investigation began in the spring of 2002 when a 38-year-old Costa Mesa man complained that he had been abused by Lyons becween 1979 and 1981 dunng one-on- one counseling sessions. Thursday's decision is defi- nitely "not ~ctirn-friendly." Costa Mesa Det. Sgt. Jack Archer said. .. It hurts vicums:· he said.

The Commission had to MIKE approve the shadow WHITEHEAD cast under the water from boats before But wait Why does a bill •To sanction the ruling Bwmese military junta, to strengthen Bwma's democratic forces and suppon and recognize the National League of Oe.mocracy as the legitimate representative of the Bwmese people and for other pwpoees• a1fect the boating lndlJltrY'l Aa • aide effect or the legialadon. the U.S. boating lDdustty would be banned from importing Burmese teak, thus making teak smuggling a new black marltet.

Unfortunately, most leglalatora and envf.ronment.al.lata do not understand lssues affecting boating. The marine industry and boaters themsdves are also to blame, as they are mainly reactive. rather than active OD the iuues.. A perfect example ln Newport Harbor ls the eel grass problem that haa grown so far out of proportion that I do not see a reasonable solution ln the near future. The Newpon Beach Harbor Commission is very concerned about the unfounded eel grass regulations and they are trying to find a solution. However, I wonder about further eeJ grass regulations if the text of the law Is modified to Include the catch phase "harboring endangered species.· I have mentioned before in many columns that eel grass ls abundant in Newpon Harbor wtth no established baseline of how much is enough. Some locals beliew that the cleaner and clearer the bay water becomes, the more sunlight penetrates down to the harbor's bottom. The sunlight stimulates eel grass growth. Aa a side effect like the teak ban, the growth of eel grass is now affecting boating wlth shoaling. Aa a side note. I have to mention that the Water Quality Committee of Newport Beach, along wtth volunteer events like Oean Harbor Day. have done an excellent job of helping our wateiways. I WO that the da will come owners required to Install akyligbta to lessen the shadlng of the structures upon eel grass. the vessel could dock. Oh yeah, the dream ended when the eel grass grew up and consumed the boats. Those not knowledgeable about boating are quick Lo point the finger at boaters, and this i.a apparent in many news reports. Remember the news reports from the Mono Bay aree that atnce there are dying sea ottera then lt mmt be the boateo nmnlng over the autwes7 Yet. the otten are dying not from boaters but from landlubber'• pet cal'• waste being washed into the lea. Only cats' reces are known to carry oocytel or 7hmplamaa gondJt and Saroocystis newona. These protozoa'a cause brain infections ln sea otters leading to death. We must govern Newport Harbor with balanced solutions that do not mlcroipanage, yet addrea the whole picture, but th1.s is not going to happen without the involvement or the marine industry and end-usen.

June CH•arande Daily Pilot NEWPORT BP.ACH -A plan to limit council members' power to override Planning Commis- sion decisJons passed its first test, but at the same time drew some serious concerns. "In my experience, to create a policy or law just to address the actions of one individual is a bad idea." Councilman Gary Ad- ams said. The individual in questi on 1s Councilman Dick Nichols. whose record of revis iting Plan- ning Commission decisions prompted his colleagues to con- sider changing city po licy. A council member can "caJJ up" any decision by the Plan - ning Commission for reconsid - eration by the council. Doing so n ullifies the commission's previ- ous decision and treats the mat- ter as a new hearing. A planning commissioner has the same power to caJI up decisions by the city 's Modifications Com - min ee, a group of staff members who rule on property owners' requests for minor exceptions to city design and building gujde- llnes. After Nichols called up five planning decisions in seven m onths -more than any other 1.i1ting council member -some o f his colleagues suggested changing the rules to require at least two councll members to call u p commission decisions. uThe idea was not to limit the number of call ups," Adams said. ·1 think lhe objective is to limit the number of indiscrimi- nate and foo lish call ups.· Councilman John Heffernan suggested lhat future call-ups should focus only on the spe- cific derails of concern to the councilman who calls them up. That way, he said, staff mem - bers don't have to spend as much time preparing staff re- ports -u you're only contesting three items, to save staff time and money, maybe we should only look at those three items,• Heffernan said. Adams disagreed, arguing that the only way to h ave a fair hearing is to revisit the entire is- sue. The rest of the council sided with Adams, voting 5 to I to bring back the matter at a fu- ture council meeting without Heffeman's provision. The item will probably appear on the next council agenda for a final vote. House of Tiki Warehouse Sale Don't mi ss our One Day Sale of Bamboo and Other Tropical Furn iture!

The award 1s named for the well-known Newport Beach couple who led the effort to pre- serve Upper Newport Bay. "I'm 1ust reaJly honored." Pir- kl e said. After graduating from UCLA in the 1950s, Pirkle got a job as a school teacher. While living in Kentucky in the late 1960s, the seeds of her activism were planted. Pirkle served as presi- dent of the League of Women Voters of Louisville and Jeffer- son County from 1967 to 1970. She was aJ1>0 a founding mem- ber of the Kentucky Civil Liber- ties Union. In 1970, she moved to Corona del Mar P1rk.le served as a vice president of the Oran ge Coast League of Women Voter!> and was a founding member of the Orange County Ttansportation D1'>tncl'!t c1t11ens advisory com- mittee. But her biggest accomplish - ment, by her own reckoning. came in the 1980s, when she took on the lrvine Co. Pirlcle filed two lawsuits lhat ultimately forced the Irvine Co. to set aside more than 70 acres fo r open space and sell the land for Crys- tal Cove State Park.. In that way. the planting of a tree is more than appropriate. since the Robinsons also won the preservation of Upper New- port Bay through the couru. "I think it's potentially inter- esting and appropn ate," Pirk.le ~d.

Y PILOT Elliott Thacker, left, and Cory Adler arrange shelves at the Newport Harbor hockey fireworks stand last year. FIREWORK Con1mued from Al dum on selling fireworb was put on the ballot. but residents were evenly divided. The measure was purely advisory. and the Clty Council decided not lo take any action because the vote was so close. The city only allows the sale of safe-and-sane fireworks during a three-day window, from July I to 4. Fireworks sales benefit the nonprofit groups that sell them, such as the Lions Oub and the Estancia High School baseball ream. City Councilman Mike Scheaf· er, who is involved with the Lions Oub. said the dub got involved with fireworks sales three years ago when its longtime fund· raiser, the F"ish Fry, was put on ice over a lawsuit "'We needed a project 10 raise funds, and that was an easy one for us to do," Scheafer said. BUDGET Continued from Al ment pack.ages is expected 10 skyrocket. For the com ing fiscal year, the city will pay about $9.5 mil· lion into the Public Employee Retirement System, a state-run fund that pays retJrement ben- efits for many public em- ployees. Next year, the amount that the city must pay into the retirement system will rise to $14 million. In 2005·06, It will likely increase at an even great· er rate. *It's going to hurt. no ques· ti on about it,• City Manager Homer Bludau said Thursday. Because police, fire and other safety employees get benefits about six times that of other city employees, retirement costs for this group represent the bulk of the city's costs. Of the $9.5 million to be spent in the coming year, about $7 mil· lion is for these saf'ety em- ployees. · Because of the continuing economic downturn. the budget is a status quo spending package wtth UttJe room for play and, thtU, Uttle room for debate.

Bromberg and Councilman Tod Ridgeway hammered out a compromise on how to help out the Corona del Mar Business lmprovement District. Ridge· way said it was inappropriate for the city to pay $6,750 to cover half the cost of printing the business directory. ·1 think underwriting a chamber or commerce is inap· propriate." Bromberg said. After some back and forth, he agreed to ch1p in $5,000 for the annual Corona del Mar Scenic SK Race and another $10,000 for the annual O:uistmas Walk. Bromberg also agreed to drop the request to help fund the dJ- rectory, but promised to try to commit a little of bis annual discretionary budget funds for the district. "They've done so much for the city, they deserve this," Bromberg said. •it won't be much, but It will be some· thing." Gary Proctor got his wish for funding for two projects in bis district: $60,000 for some dredging in the West Newport waters for envirorunentaJ and navtgatlonaJ improvementa and another $15,000 for the Welt Newport Rejuvenadon Project.

To quickJy fix the situauon and save their hip quotient. the duo invited Breckenridge on the air and agreed to play a song from the band's weU-recelved second album, "The Illusion of Safety." They even joked about the band one day playing the station's modem rock all-star summer show, the "Weenie Roast." After that day last August. the station never mennoned Thrice or played another tune from the band until last month. One afternoon. on his "Catch of che Day" -a new cutting-edge song he offers up to the listeners once a week -afternoon DJ Jed the Fish played Thrice's "All That's Left." the first single off the band's major label debut, "The Artist in the Ambulance." which is slated for a July 22 release.

Rosso said the team's anivaJ at the Oregon Tuch campus was dampened with rain. "However, we were well greeted and made comfortable. and of course. we were happy to be off the bus." he said. ·The home team players and coaches were very friendly and it was unique to prepare for a game with our attitude that was meant for playing the game for fun.· Rosso also sakl the trip and the game served as learning lessons for his players. "We bad an enjoyable game,· Rosso said. ·sut we missed the n~ intensity to go all out. This ln lt5elf was a lesson in-. scheduling and playing tht game for fun." It Is fair lO say that CXX: was trailing by a narrow margin and at the end of the mud-soaked field But a frosh speecbter from Yuma. Ariz.. streaked out of a spread fonnadon and ran a fair distance for the winning touchdown. His name was Howard Del Miller. The game concluded with a special 1banksgtvins dinner for both teams.

"I really can't recall personal reactions. but I do know that there is something to playing to win and yet enjoying the game and opponents. • AJI in all, uuersectional competition is well worthwhile at the season's end.· he continued. ·Naturally, if it means winning a bowl-type game. it requires more intensity in all &pee-ts of preparing and playing. But th.is type of game made many on the team closer together and made their relationships with each other and the coaches more meaningful. And, it also gave us a stan for the next yearl" Rosso compared the CXX: trip along with his own experience with road games and realized the positive impact for everyone involved. ~wen. It was not as exciting as flying, but the guys will remember it even better," R~ said ·0n this point, I recall that was true when I played and we had train ttips to Oregon and Washington. And, in the two or three days. we all profited from the experience of being able to know eadl other and enjoying the atmosphere that travel provides In preparing for competition." . •• .

Costa Mesa means ~table (or p lateau) by the coast" in Spanish. Mesa Verde (green table) and Mesa del Mar (table by the sea) also boast Spanish names. Latinos, who In 1990 made up 20% of the city's population, made up 31.8% in 2000. according to the 2000 census. Despite the recent boom, the Latino population has a long history tn the city, from its agricultural to industrial era and now to the service and entrepreneurial era. Mitch Barrie. a member of the Costa Mesa Historical Society, has !>aid that many of the Latinos living in the city were farm workers who hved near the farms on the Westside. ·Mexicans have always been here," he said. "This was Mexico, of course. and some of them stayed after California was annexed. In the class pictures of schools on the Westside, you always find Mexican children and also some Japanese children. The (Latinos! are never identified in 1he pictures, though. so people probably didn't mingle much. Many were laborers who worked on farms and didn't make much money. so they weren't able to live in the good parts of town." In 1930. the Monte Vista School opened for Mexicans only. Some believe the separate learning institution was proof of racial 1ens1ons, but others felt it w~ the molt! beneficial for all the children involved Costa Mesa C.rammar School Pri ncipal Dale Evans ·was convinced that the district's Mexican students -the rna1ority of whom were havtng language d1fficullies -would learn more in their own school,· according to "A Slice of Orange· The History of Costa Mesa," by Edriclc Miller. Just around the lime of the city's 1ncorporation, the Supreme Court ruled on Qrown vs. Board of Education. overturning the notion of "separate but equal" facilities for different ethnic groups. The city continued to grow. and the children began learning together. As time went on, Latinos, like others. moved away from agriculture into lndustnal. service and business. Racial tensions were present. but not <.unsuming. and IUce today, different segments of the city chose whether they wished to mtermtngle or not. Longtime resident and activist Paty Madueno -.aid she h~ noticed a po'.>1tive change afler 1980. when she moved here. Paty Madueno 1s a communrty acbvist. "\\/hen I came here, we were people who were afraid to walk on the streets.· she said. "People didn't appreciate seeing us and didn't b.lce for me to speak Spanish. Some people still give me dirty looks becau5e they think I'm saying bad things about them. I guess. "We were still '.>truggling to get a Spanish Mass at St. Joachim Church," she said. "By 1986, we had cwo or three of them. The Latino population gradually increased. and acceptance came gradually as well. Now it's much beuer. It is much different from that ume. Costa Mesa 1s a different city. a friendlier city." In the Late 1990s, many Launo organizations began to form. The Latino Business Council began 1n 1997 with a mission to promote Latino businesses citywide. Since then. it has expanded its focus to build rela11onsh1ps with the City Council and the Costa Mesa community. The Latino Community Network formed in 1999 to get involved m the city's Westside planning effons. · While the Westside is sJm home to the largest percentage of Latinos, those of Latin American decent have found success citywide. Many growing businesses. such as El Chinaco. Taco Mesa and El Matate line 19th Street, while many with Spanish surnames fill the towering offices at law and accounting fums in South Coast Metro. "That's why we like Costa Mesa." Madueno said. "It isn't square; it adapts to the needs of families. A lot of our families. legal or not. are day laborers or low-salary workers. and Costa Mesa has a lot of the busmesses that our families work for." C.iven all indications, the Latino community will conunue to be a big pan of Costa Mesa history.

Deep• Bharath Daily Pilot C iry Manager Allan Roeder sees Costa Mesa as a microcosm of Orange County. It has homes, businesses. corporations and a world-class shopping center "Within its 16 square miles, our little city represenis the county as a whole," Roeder said. But Costa Mesa wasn't always what It is today. Roeder came to the city 30 years ago when he was in college, he said. "It's grown physically since then~· he said. "The demographics have changed dramatically." But what makes Costa Mesa special is that despite its super-quick growth and development, it still attracts those with an affinity to a small-town and community feel, Roeder said. From the city' point of view, gone are the days when it would suffice to commun1La le Retired poli~e chief David Snowden exclusively with elected officials, Roeder srud. "The focus has shifted from officials to the neighborhood level," he said. "And that's because of the growth of community involvement. It's amazing how much we respond Lo individuals in the community. That's a healthy development." City Hall has seen "enormous turnover" throughout the last 20 years and an expansion In the police, recreation, code enforcement and maintenance departments, Roeder said. Roeder has been largely responsible for "building a cohesive, professional management team" in city hall, said recently retired police chief David Snowden. "He also inspired us to do the same in our individual city departments," he said. Snowden said the police departments has been strong since the city's inception. For his part, Snowden said he tried LO "ciV11ianize" several functions in the police department.

Roeder see., the c ity's future Crty Manager Allan Roeder as getting into areas "that were skipped becau ewe grew so quickly." The city, in the future, needs to develop a stronger identity for itself, he said. "Costa Mesa has been through the awkward teen stage when we felt we didn't fit in," he said. People who live in this city are "independent thinkers." said Roeder. "It's these different kinds of people who lend that vitality to Costa Mesa," he said. "So what's our idenuty?

Ahlf Daily Pilot Costa I Golden Mesa Memories Building the foundation Retired Chief of Police Roger Neth was one of the city's first three police officers. By Ro11r Neth M y family moved to Costa Mesa in 1936. At that time, Costa Mesa boasted a population of less than 2,000 people, which included Santa Ana Heights. The Eastslde was a mix of residential and orange groves while the area north and west of Newpon Boulevard was thinly scattered with homes amid tomato and Uma bean fields. The business community was clustered around the intersecuon of Newport and Harbor boulevards. Newpon Boulevard was a two-way, three-lane highway. Local streets had no curbs or gutters and Broadway was the only improved lllreet. paved with concrete from Newpon Boulevard to Santa Ana Avenue. Entertainment for the youngsters was limited to reading the comic books at Pinlc's Drug Store and playing kick the can and king of the hill after school. Radio programs such as ·Jack Armstrong,~ ·I Love a Mystery,· "One Man's FanuJy" and ·shatter Parker· were the everung programs shared by the entire family. In later years, the Palm drive-in at 19th and Newpon Boulevard was the gathering spot for the lugh school kids. llus site later became the location of Mesa Theater. During World War II, the Santa Ana Army Air Base was in the area roughly covered in the perimeter of Newpon Boulevard, Baker Street. Harbor Boulevard and Bristol Street. This bn~ught the military lntluence very close to home.

Costa I Golden .. Mesa Memories Central force The Orange County fairgrounds have provided the city with fun, funds and even a bit of controversy. Christin• C•rrlllo Daily Pilot A n Army air base turned fahsrounds, the site of Indian Pow \\bw'S and Scottish Festivals, and ht-"t to numerous gun and . computer shows over the years. the Orange County Fair and Exposidon Center in Costa Mesa has played a varied role in the city's SO-year history. The fairgrounds lured flocks of residents from surrounding cities and counties into Costa Mesa's city limits to attend the annual Orange County Fair that found a pennanent home there in 1950. .. I would like to the think the fair is part of the community development." said Becky Bailey-Flndley, general manager and chief executive for the center. •1 think when you talk about the people Who wort at the fair and kind of embody the spirit of the fair, many of them are resldent.s, but even if some of us don't live here, we still see it as a second home, and it's because of the yean of interaction with the community. .. It still acts as bartering central on the weekends, giving shoppers across Southern California. and sometimes beyond. an outdoor marketplace for nearly anything under the sun. .. I think we've long been known u a great place for the family to spend the day .... W~re almost like an outdoor mall with a heavy emphasis on fun," said Jeff Teller. president of the Orange County Marketplace. which began in 1969. "'We've had a great reladonshJp with the city 'The old-fashioned country fair and venues, livestock shows and rodeos have really been ~ very big part of Costa Mesa, keeping its hometown feel ... .' Ed FllWCltt President of the Costa Mesa Chamber of Commerce for a number of years .... We're lcind of an institution." While the fairgrounds has managed to maintain a positive fiscal effect on the city with such multimillion dollar events as the fair and the marketplace, it has also created its share of controversy. At one tinie, the fairgrounds sparked huge debate over the concert noise that penetrated through residential neighborhoods in the amphitheater's vicinity. That controversy, which resulted in the closure of the Pacific Amphitheater in 1995, may rear its head once again when the amphitheater reopens this summer during the fair. For the most part .• whether positive or negative, the fahsrounds have had quite an effect on the city, as a whole. .. The old-fashioned country fair and venues. livestock shows and rodeos have really been a very big part of Costa Mesa. keeping its hometown feel as opposed to a metropolitan feel," said Ed Fawcett. president of the Costa Mesa Ouunber of Commerce. uCosta Mesa revolves around the fair more than the fair revolves around it It has heen very instrumental in the ... [formation) of the city. I think the fairgrounds will be here for a long time to come." Costa Mesan's Regain Interest In Their Homes After the War B ack In 1944 Mesa Upholstery began constructing upholstered furniture of uncommon quaJiry. World War II was nearing its end which meant that American homemakers had been without new furniture in their homes for several years. With the rca.1ization of this need they proceeded, working with fabrics and materials left the phase of often expressed by the cu~tomcr~ of Mesa Upholstery. Literally thousands of f.abrics including practicaJ synchctics arc grouped together in one of the largest collections in California. Such familiar companies found on display in our showroom arc; Scalamandrc. Brunswig & Fils, Grcdt, Strohcim & Romann . Boris Kroll, Schunw:her, to name only a few of over I 00 fabric houses represented. The fact that "Mesa Upholstery makes Beauuful things Happen" is not an accidcnc not looked upon lightly. "Beautiful things happen" • bccawc of rnpcrb design and craftsmanship with each snd1v1dual piece then becoming a gem in ics genre. "Beautiful things happen" • because of the masterly mix of pancrn and the brilliant melange of color, combined in a triumph of f.abric. -"Beautiful things happen" • because you allcd over from the '30s and Army surplw sources. "Not very imaginative nor creative, but top quality workmanship went into each piece." When the war ended, more fabrics became available in Orange County California began to grow. So did Mesa Upholstery! They moved from the origiMl ahop to new quarters on Newport Blvd., • •ac the edge of town• • added more crafumen to meet the growing demand; and so Mesa Upholstery became established. In 1990 Mesa Upholstery moved to its present location on Harbor Blvd., in Costa Mesa, into MW facilities tocaling 11,000 square feet.

Costa I Golden Mesa Memories Olly Pilot From tragedy to triumph Costa Mesa sports history is best told as a battle between Mustangs and Eagles. By Ro1er C•rlaon T here waa a heart ln Costa Mesa that was claimed by both Eagles and Mustangs, and to start with the amazlng exploits of the Pegasus requires that one must first look toward the late baseball coach Paul 'I?oxel, whose sheer dedication toward competing at the highest level, gertlng the most from what he had and loving every minute of the hunt, to brlng these two high schools into focus. 'I?oxel, one of the most likable guys you'd ever meet, coached baseball at both schools, for the most part at Estancia and in the end at Costa Mesa. When he died lo 1999, tears Oowed on Fairview Road and Placentia Avenue. For probably the only rime, ever, at a little church on Baker and Fairview, green-clad and red-clad athletes would grieve arm-in-arm. If you want a four-letter summation of the life and times of the Costa Mesa Mustangs and Estancia Eagles, it would be ~nox." There have been some ups and downs, and a touch of Hatfields and McCoys. So I'm not going to talk of Eagles and Mustangs. of who was No. 1, or of a Top 10, or of sheer results, for the most part. Better that you close your eyes and remember a basketball coach in a wheelchair. Costa Mesa's Jason Ferguson ln those tragic days as cancer claimed his 23-year-old body in 1996. Or recall the exploits of baseball stars such as Dan Quisenberry, Rich Amaral, Jeff Gardner, Kyle Wtlson and Brent Mayne. Or of such basketball stars as Steve Van Hom, Ken Bardsley. Ouis Beasley, Bruce Olapman, Matt Fuerbringer, Tom Read, Paul McDaniels, Sam Nelson, the Orgills [Gary and Ray). Pete Neumann, Craig Falconer, Jim Faulkner and Jim McOoskey. Or of such football stars as Benny Ricardo, Pat Sweetland, Jeff Graham, Larry Hall, the Ferrymans Uim and Dick), Matt Johner, Lee Joyce, Vince Klees, Jim McCahill, Steve Kraiss, the Camps [Mike and Tony], Bryan Luxembourger, Dave Gleason, Binh Than, Olarles Olatman, Dan Former Daily Pilot Sports Editor Roger Carlson Princeotto. Dewayne Crenshaw, Dan Bauer and Bill Lux. Or of such track and field standouts as Bruce Hancock. Alberto Munoz, Eric Dom, Eric Berge and Jim Walters. The girls, you know, didn't really start until the '70s. But did they ever make an impact. How about Olivia DiCamilli, Bonnie Dasse. Koo Kim, Heather Robinson. Jill Black, Julie Collett, Leah Braatz, Shannon Suzuki, Katie Grogan and Kathy Mollica for starters? And, of course, the Capper, Sharon Day. How about the best principal, ever? Robert Francy. Among the many coaches whom I cherished were Larry Sunderman, Ken Millard, Tim O'~rien, Joe Re id, Bill Wetzel, Kirk Bauermeister, Bob Serven, John Camey and Tom Baldwin. Also, from way back, Jules Gage and Emil Neeme. About one-third of the personalities who were named to the Daily Pilot Sports Hall of Fame o n New Year's Day of 2000 are mentioned in this article, which shows just how deep the talent and accomplishments go. So I'm leaving myself wide open. And, of course, there is the matter of major successes in cross country, water polo, soccer, wrestling, volleyball, tennis, golf, swimming, even gymnastics and badminton, which must be considered. But I've done my best to rekindle some memories, which began at Something old Sharon Day has no trouble clearing 5'6~ in CIF high jump competition m May 2003. Estancia when the Eagles opened their first-ever season with a 45-7 loss to Troy at Fullerton High in 1965 with a quanerback named Oluck Perry. And when Costa Mesa. coached by Tom French in 1976. staggered heralded Foothill with a 14-14 tie in a nonleague football game. There was that great 1970 Estancia football team under coach Phil Brown (9-2), which nearly pulled off the upset of the season before falling to the Allen Carter-led Bonita juggernaut in the CIF 3-A Playoffs opener, 15-14, in a muddy quagmire at Orange Coast College. Estancia's only other loss was to eventual undefeated CIF cbampion Edi.son, 14-12. And, of course. Mesa's surge ln football, ignited by Myron Miller ln 1993 (9-3-2). Estancia's great state championship team of 1991 under O'Brien in boys' basketball and Costa Mesa's state finalists in '93 under the hands of girls' basketball coach Lisa McNamara, are probably the two highlights of team play, which come to mind. It all began in 1960 for Costa Mesa lthe principal was Les Miller! and 1965 for Estancia !the principal was Floyd Harryman.I Before that. Newport Harbor High accommodated Costa Mesa's best. And, to this day. Costa Mesa athletes in the neighborhood of 17th Street and Irvine Avenue attend Harbor. Costa Mesa and Estancia. Each has plenty to brag about. What lies ahead? Withou t a doubt. more of the same. •ROGER CARLSON 1s the Daily Pilot Spona Editor Emeritus He writes a column on Sundays. Paul Troxel Country Store ............................... .....

Dady PlJot Costa I Golden Mesa Memories frld.ly, June 27 2003 BU Building a life in a growing city Longtime resident remembers heading out to the Mesa or Kona Lanes for a night out. H aving spent half my life in Costa Mesa. there are some memories that jump out at me. My first stint in this town was for six months in the m.id-1960 , when I returned to Southern California after ~rvlce in the mill tary. I was launching myself into a new career, making very httJe money al the time, and found Costa Mesa to be an affordable place Lo live. I rented a studio apanrnent near the comer of 19th Street and Maple Avenue ror $85 per month. 1 worked 50 to 60 hours per week and did my laundry at tJ1e Laundromat on 19th Street on Friday rughts. Costa Mesa Wcl!> a place I sJept, munched an occasional taco and did my laundry. I recall lighting the ground fog -caused by the agriculture that preceded South Coast Plaza -that lrL-quently shrouded the "Newport ~ rccway" In those dayi.. One of life's great adventures is trying 10 drive up the freeway from its terminus at Bristol "trcel m fog so thick that you have 10 open the driver's door and look for the lane line~ while trying lo keep the car pointed m the right direction. After marrymg my c;weet wife and bouncing around the c.ount.ry like a couple of gypsies for several years, we returned to Costa Mesa in the eady 1970s. We will have lived in the same house on the Eastside for 30 years in a couple of months. My real C.Osta Mesa recoUections begin at that time. skills that would take a few of them to the Olympics. ~Culture" in those days was represented by the old Mesa Theater and KDna Lanes. South Coast Plaza bad been completed and was by then the premiere Geoff West Of course, one thing that bas not changed much is the Harbor Boulevard of Cars. Although.the brands have changed and ownership or most dealerships have changed. it still looks very much like it did in the 70s. The sales tactics have changed, though. because I don't recall feeling like a tethered lamb being circled by predators back in those days. shopping venue in the country-the place to go. Triangle Square did not yet exist. but one of its predecessors on that location, MarVac Electrorucs. wc1S a destination of choice until redevelopment forced it out and up Harbor Boulevard. In those early days. the traffic around the Devil's Triangle -Newpon . I larbor and 19th Street -was not yet overwhelming. A person could actually drive across town without feeling the need to hum the "Jeopardy'' theme while waiting for the signals to change. One could still skate at the Ice Olalc1 -or simply drop in after taking in a show at the Edw.mh Theater.. to watch tl1e kids ru. they practiced and developed Another thing that has not really changed much is the Orange O>unty Fair -a place where it is still possible to get a lifetime supply of fat in a single day at the fair by sunply grazmg the many food carts. The fair fare has changed over the years. but the constant has been fried food. My stomach's gurgling at the thought as I type this.

A schoolbouse and church sprang up in the late 1800s at the intersection of Adams Avenue and Harbor Boulevard. In 1888, the area entered the ibdustrial age when the Santa Ana Valley and Pacific Railroad Co. was incorporated, connecting Santa Ana to Fairview along Harbor Boulevard. But a mere nine months later, a storm eroded some of the track, which was never rebuilt. ending the train's run and Fairview's progression into the modem ·age. It soon wellt back to Its fanning roots. ln 1890, the Fairview Development Co. faced bankruptcy. sounding the death knell for the town of Fairview. When the city's administration outgrew the premises, a new Oty Hall opened in 1957 at 19th Street and Pomona Avenue, where the Senior Center Is now, But within two years. the new Oty Hall could not accommodate the rapld growth, so plans to upgrade began again. this time for a ftve-story building on Fair Drive. The third and current Oty Hall on Fair Drive was dedicated on the city's anniversary in 1967. This one was built with room to grow. The top two Boors were initially leased out to Orange County, City Manager Allan Roeder said. "Overall, the building was a really good investment for the city at that time and really suited our needs," Roeder said. "I think, longer term, I certainly don't see anything on the horizon that would be suggesting a need to relocate from this site." TRANSm ON TO BUSTLING RETAIL MECCA and supply paint sup~~es.g to a1J the various boat builc plact.., In the WestskJe lndustrlal are~ •• well as the auto dealerships that had begun locating on Harbor Boulevard," Roeder sald. As that Industry began to shrink, others moved in, turning the Westside into a diverse industrial and residential area. While the early settlers weH' farmers and shopkeepers who served them, the city saw a huge population boom after Worl d War II. Many alrmen wh • had trained at the air base returned to a place that wa<; familiar to them. The mild weather also served as a slnm song, calling back those who had strayed. "Costa Mesa means 'tableland on the coast.' so th• weather has always been perfect (inl Costa Mesa," Wilson said. "It always bring' people back. It is a wonderful place." Another small community named Harper had already been established around a siding of the railroad. On May 11, 1920. Harper officially changed its name to Costa Mesa, which means "coastal tableland." The transition from an agricuJturaJ pit stop to a renowned retail destination was midwifed by the Segerstrom family. a dynasty that successfully straddled Costa Mesa's two phases and put the city on the map. When Costa Mesa incorporated in 1953, the first City Council members were, from left to right, Claire Nelson, Bruce Martin, Charles TeWinkle, Bert Smith and Walter Miller. Over the decades, city Jeadtt managed to maintain a health\ mix of housing, Roeder said 11 the last decade especially. th•· city has made it a priority tu keep affordable housing in Costa Mesa."! think the cou111 1 has very much recognized th 1 there's need for an affordabl1 housing component within ti • city," Roeder said. "I think \\h has been difficuJt is kind of translating that for the mo<.t part into affordable owner-occupied housing a~ opposed to having as high " percentage of rental prope1 t\ the city has." The city was experiencing growth from building and oil drilling induslries when the Great Depression hit Southern California. The financial doldrums sent the area into a tailspin'.. with industries coUapsing and the local bank dosmg. An earthquake in 1933 added to the misery, damaging businesses and the main school Fortunately, the school was rebuilt and is now used for administrative purposes as part of the Newport·Mesa Unified School District. The Santa Ana Army Au Base opened on April 7, 1942. covering Si swath that is now the Orange County Fairground~. Orange Coast College and the Civic Center. bringing an inOux of people to the area. When World War II ended, many of the airmen who had trained at the base returned to the area with their families. starting a population boom. On June 29, 1953, the burgeoning city with an area of 3.5 square miles and a population of 16,840 was incorporated. LANDMARK PROPERTIES The first City Hall was erected at the comer of 20th Street and Newport Boulevard in 1953. The Segerstroms, who had immigrated from Sweden, were dairy farmers and bean growers who owned a substantiaJ part of land in and around Costa f\lesa. They were also visionaries who recognized where Costa Mesa was headed and invested in 11. nus future involved a different commodity-one that wru. found mdoors in stores like the May Lo. and Sears Roebuck. Tiili !>hift was wiusual for Or.:tnge County farming famili~ at the time, '>tnce most just sold their propertJe<> so they could stake a claim on a bigger piece of farmland in the Central Valley, said Hank Panian, a former history professor at Orange Coast CoUege. The Segerstroms' first retail forays in the late l 950s and early '60s were just a wann·up for their pih:e de resistance-South Co~t Plaza. wtuch officially opened in 1967 ~ the first enclosed regional shopping center in the county. Clty leaders enuced the Segerstroms, who were initially reluctant because of their close ties to Santa Ana. to annex the land that would eventually become South Coast Plaza to the city. It just took plain, old-fashioned accommodation. Wilson said. "We gave them jw;t about anything they wanted, whatever they needed,·· Wilson said. MThey needed a wider street. we gave 11 to them. Anything to get them here, because we saw all the money it would bring to Costa Mesa. and it h~." FREEWAYS nie Segerstroms were so ahead of the curve that they opened South Coast Pla7,a before the *<'lion of the San Dtt>go 1-reeway through the city was fuili.hed. That didn·1 happen until 1968. In 1992. the tity wcu. di!>tingwshed enough tu earn ll'> ovai freew·ay when the C.O!.ta Me&t f-reeway wru. extended into the heart of downtown CoMa Mesa.

''I'm no geologist or meteorologist, but when the ocean air Oows this way, it flows through the open space, rather than be hindered by tall buildings," Panian said. "That's a bonus." EDUCATION When the Santa Ana Army Air Base was decommJssioned in 1946. a large chunlc of the property changed from training airmen to craining students when Orange Coast College sprung up on part of the former base. Although the college opened its doors in 1948. Costa Mesa rudn·t annex it until 1955. In those years. the city was still a "service center for an agncultural hinterland," and the college tailored some of its programs accordingly. with a large agricultural division. Panian said. "One of the nicest things in those days was the fact that the college had steers on about 50 acres -that was a)ways a big joke. Every evening we couJd hear them bawling," Panian said. "And then the trains UM!d to come into about where Baker is now and you could hear their wtustle .... That was kind of nostalgic." In 1966. Costa Mesa schools jomed with Newport Beach schools to form a unified school district, which was beneficial for both cttles, Panian i.aid. "Both the Newport Elementary and Costa Mesa Elementary school districts each had their own problems. and with unification, they came under a central board of govemors." Panian said. "And It guaranteed our children a uruform, consistent policy and practice so when they got to Orange Coa!>t (College! or any four·year M:hool. they wouJd have a common back.ground and didn't need to be brought up to par " NEIGHBORHOODS The \'anous neighbo rhood'> in the ctty evolved ba .. ed on the properties they belonged to in the pa'it.

The family a.gDcultural operaclon once covered land as far south as Wtlson Avenue in Costa Mesa and as far nonh as Warner Avenue in Santa Ana. "Personally. I enjoyed very much the exhilaration or (farm workl, but I am very proud of our family for accommodating the needs of a growing community,· Segerstrom said. While the agricultural business was still booming. the family ventured in10 development ln 1948, the family took its first s1ep away from agriculture and pun::h~ the \~how.e and '>upply area of the former Army bast' in Santa Ana.

Segerstrom holds near to his heart the very ftrm belief that his family developed Costa Mesa while always taken m10 accoun1 the integrity of the land and the m1erests of the communuy. When the family started construcuon on May Co .• people questioned the WISdom of placing a retail store in the middJe of desolate land. When the beams for the Westin Hotel went up, people were skeptical. "People thought we were crazy when this 17 ·story building was in construction,· Segerstrom said. The community continues to marvel and cnticize the family's development decisions, but it all comes with the territory.
