HomeMy WebLinkAbout00 - On the AgendaOn the Agenda: July 11 City Council Meeting
The next City Council meeting is Tuesday, July
11. Items of interest are highlighted below. The
entire agenda and reports can be viewed here.
There is no Study Session or Closed Session. The
regular meeting will begin at 4 p.m. Agenda items
include:
• A $3.9 million contract award to Brea -based
Jilk Heavy Construction, Inc., for construction of the
Newport Bay Trash Interceptor. The Trash
Interceptor is a floating trash and debris collection
system that will be located in the San Diego Creek between the Jamboree Road Bridge and
MacArthur Boulevard Bridge, upstream from the Upper Newport Bay nature preserve. The
system is expected to reduce the amount of waste reaching the Upper Newport Bay by 80
percent (from an estimated 100 to 300 tons a year) and supplement other efforts already in
place — such as trash booms, storm drain collection systems and floating skimmers — to
prevent trash from entering sensitive aquatic environments such as the bay, harbor and
ocean.
Ad Hoc Residential Crime and Burglary Advisory Committee recommendations. The Council
will discuss the committee's recommendations and provide direction to City staff.
Consideration of a $3 million contribution to a permanent supportive housing project for
formerly homeless individuals. Newport Beach has been invited to participate in a $45 million
project proposed by the nonprofit group American Family Housing to convert the 120-room
Travelodge North Motel property at 1400 Bristol St., Costa Mesa, into a 78-unit permanent
supportive housing project.
