He advised that the group.felt the site should be left as open space; that the design as proposed was inconsistent with the rest of the community because of the cul -de -sac design, the lot size, height and house orientation, and sound attenuat walls; and that the traffic problems would be increased over that which already exists. Jack Van Eden, 910 Westcliff Drive, appeared bef the Commission and reviewed an aerial photograph of the area to illustrate how the development would not fit in with the rest of the community.

Commissioner Hummel commented in support of the motion because of the desires of the community al the need to solve some of the traffic problems before approving this or any other project which would increase the density in the City. Commissioner Frederickson commented on the right of a property owner to develop his property as • long as it met the requirements established by the City and felt that the traffic would not be significantly increased by this development. At this point City Engineer Nolan commented on tl traffic and advised against any approval of plan. "E", "F ", or "G" modified because they would add a fourth leg to the busy Westcliff /Dover inter- section and thus decrease the level of service at that intersection while at the same time wou not solve any traffic problems on Westcliff Driv or Santiago Drive. He commented that plan "I" w a betterment to the original proposal in that it would reduce the number of intersections and fel that either the original proposal or plan "I" would not significantly impact traffic on West - cliff as indicated by the proposed volumes. Commissioner Agee felt there was enough confusio and legitimate questions raised to warrant delay of this project until such time as a proposal fo the entire Castaways site had been developed.

INDEX COMMISSIONERS no��A�y9sGir City of Newport Beach MINUTES January 20, 1977 BOLL CALL Fred Sawyer with Reynolds Environmental Group, an consultant to the City of Newport Beach, appearec before the Commission and advised that 70% of the water in Orange County drained into the bay, that 80% of the water runoff from the project would be inherited from the golf course, that the project itself would produce a very small amount of runoff water, that although the grease traps may be experimental in this residential development, the would do some good, and that the marsh area with its healthy growth of bullrushes would provide a settling area, restrict movement of debris, and absorb many of the chemicals which flow through the marsh area. As to the construction of a permanent desilting basin, Or. Sawyer felt there would be less silt runoff after the project was completed than there was at present and that a complete system at the edge of the development would not help the water which would flow over tl parking lot and on into the bay. Following a brief discussion relative to drainag( and point /non -point source runoff, the public hearings were opened. Bob McLain, 1470 Jamboree Road, appeared before the Commission and commented on the issue of drainage which he felt would be improved with this project. He advised of the maintenance whip would be performed throughout the complex such a! street sweeping and general cleanup in order to help prevent debris from entering the drainage system. He also advised that at least two car w+ areas would be installed in the complex; that landscaping, watering and fertilizing would be done on a controlled basis; that a desiltation program would be followed during construction in accordance with the grading permit; and that the siltation problem should be basically eliminated following completion of the project. Jean Watt, 4 Harbor Island, appeared before the Commission on behalf of SPON and commented on th letter to the Commission dated January 19, 1977 relative to drainage and the need for regulation to prevent further pollution to the bay. • Elmer LaLond, 594 Cliff Drive, Laguna Beach, Administrative Assistant to the General Manager of the Newporter Inn, appeared before the Commis Page 15. r] ,y Ie is a IN OraX 'COMMISSIONERS C city c January of Newport Beach 20, 1977 ROLL CALL sion and commented that the project would help tc decrease the silt which reaches their parking lot from the golf course during rain storms. George Engles, 125 E. Bay Front, appeared before the Commission on behalf of the Little Island Property Owners Association and commended the planning of this project together with its concer and mitigation measures relative to the drainage. However, it was felt that a moratorium on future development should be given consideration until such time as the bridge across the bay has been completed. Hal Thomas, 908k W. Balboa, appeared before the Commission to advise of alternative methods for controlling siltation, urban runoff, and residen• tial biocides and pesticides. Peggy Meridune, 921 Alder Place, appeared before the Commission representing the Board of Directoi • of the Eastbluff Homeowners Community Associatiol They felt that the design was attractive, however they were concerned with the impact additional traffic noise would have on homes already estab- lished adjacent to Jamboree Road as well as the proliferation of traffic signals. They recommeni that prior to the acceptance of the Environmenta' Impact Report on this project that a more carefu investigation of the noise levels be made in ord to assure that the CNEL rating would not exceed 60 to 65 dBA. They also recommended that the developer pay 100% of the cost of the traffic signal so that the City could use their funds to plan signals in other locations with a higher priority. City Engineer Nolan commented on the City policy with respect to the installation of traffic sign He also commented on the traffic warrants which must be met prior to the installation of any traffic signal. The condition relative to insta lation of the signal was to assure that the developer would pay his share of the cost should it be determined that a signal was needed at tha location. • Bob Millar, 116 Crystal Avenue, appeared before the Commission to comment on the traffic along Jamboree Road in front of the Newporter Inn and felt that a signal was long overdue at that poin Page 16.

He suggested that the drai be reconstructed either prior to or concurrently with the tennis court, otherwise the work would have to be done over again. Planning Commission questioned funding of the storm drain and was advised there were no funds budgeted for the project at this time. Cal Stewart, Director of Parks, Beaches and Recreation, appeared before the Commission to answer questions relative to the funding and advised there were no restrictions placed on the funds, however, he did not feet that reconstruc- tion of the storm drain could be considered a part of the park. He also advised that the availability of the funds would expire in July, 1978, that the total cost of the park was antici pated at $132,000 but that only.$94,000 had beer appropriated, and that the funds had been appro- priated by the State for this particular site..
