Re: Beach Volleyball Court at 2406 W. Oceanfront
RECOMMENDATIONS

the court at 2406 W. Oceanfront.
or
b) Relocate the court at 2406 W. Oceanfront 10 feet out from the current site.
or

volleyball court at 25`h Street, and direct staff to have it installed.
or
d) Remove the beach volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront and install a beach
volleyball court at 26'hStreet, which is already authorized.
BACKGROUND
The regulations, placement, and maintenance of City volleyball courts on the public
beaches is governed by Resolution 92 -93, approved August 24, 1992. Earlier resolutions,
dating back to 1982, provided similar procedures. Resolution 92 -93, the lists of approved
sites, maps, and Community Services Department procedures are enclosed (pp. 5 -18).
Request for Removal of Volleyball Court at 2406 W. Oceanfront
On September 1, 1998, the Community Services office received by fax a request for
relocation of the volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront. The request was purportedly
made by Rene Barge, the property owner at 2408 W. Oceanfront, but was later found to be
from his tenant, Charles Hartwell. The request included signatures of five other residents in
the 2400 and 2500 blocks of W. Oceanfront (pp. 19 -20)
Survey of Property Owners
Community Services staff sent survey letters to 52 property owners within 200 feet of the
site. A copy of blank survey letter and property owners list are attached (pp. 21 -23).

Page 2
The responses from property owners within 100 feet only, as required by Resolution 92 -93,
were :
• 12 property owners, including Rene Barge, property owner of 2408 W. Oceanfront,
responded that they were not in favor of removing the court.
• 4 property owners were in favor of removing the court.
• 5 property owners stated that they were ambivalent.
All survey responses are available in the Community Services office. Nine surveys were
returned because of expired forwarding addresses.
Subsequently, the Community Services staff reported to the applicant, Charles Hartwell,
that his request for removal was denied, but that the decision could be appealed to the
Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission.
Appeals to the Commission
On November 3, 1998, Charles Hartwell, tenant at 2408 W. Oceanfront, appeared before
the Commission requesting that the appeal of the staff decision be placed on the agenda for
the December meeting (p. 24).
The request, with staff report, was agendized for the December 1, 1998, Parks, Beaches
and Recreation Commission meeting. At the meeting, Chair Beek announced that Mr.
Hartwell had requested that the matter be continued to the January 1999 meeting.
However, testimony was taken from members of the public who had come to the meeting
expecting a decision to be made. Recreation staff was requested to monitor the court
activity (pp. 25 -26).
At the January 5, 1999, meeting the staff report was reviewed and public testimony was
again taken. The Commission voted 6- 0 (Chair Beek was absent) to deny the request for
removal (pp. 27 -29).
On January 7, 1999, Mr. Hartwell resubmitted an application for removal of the volleyball
court at 2406 W. Oceanfront and included in his application a letter from Rene Barge, the
property owner of Mr. Hartwell's residence, endorsing the application. Staff posted the
required 30-day notice at the volleyball court, announcing the public hearing at the March
2, 1999, meeting of the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission (pp. 30 -33).
On January 15, a status report was faxed to Councilmembers Adams and Ridgeway, both of
whom had called the Community Services office with questions on the matter (p. 34).
At the March 2, 1999, meeting of the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission, the
commissioners received the staff report with the additional information that notification
had been posted for 30 -days, as required by Resolution 92 -93. After public testimony, the
Commission voted 7 -0 to retain the court (pp. 35 -41).

. At the April 12, 1999, City Council meeting Councilmember Debay requested that staff
prepare a report on the issue of volleyball courts and the proximity of the courts to
residents in the 2400 block of W. Oceanfront (p. 42).
A staff report was prepared for the April 26, 1999, City Council agenda. There was no
public discussion (pp. 43 -46).
The matter was placed on the City Council agenda of May 24. At the request of the City
Manager, staff noticed the residents and members of the public who had written or testified
at the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission and provided them with the staff report.
After discussion and public testimony the matter was continued to June 28 (pp. 47 -53).
Beach Survey of City Volleyball Courts
Responding to a Council request for more specific information on the positioning of all
approved courts on the beach, Public Works Department staff surveyed the beach courts
on May 26, 1999. As a result of the survey, seven courts were found to be less than the
required 50 feet from the sidewalk or the private property line, if no sidewalk exists:
• 281h Street 48 feet
•41" Street 49 feet
*42 Id Street 41 feet
• • 43`d Street 38 feet
• 710 W. Oceanfront 47 feet
• 7008 W. Oceanfront 46 feet
• 3909 W. Oceanfront 41 feet
To bring these courts into compliance with Resolution 92 -93, work orders have been
submitted for the repositioning of courts at 710 and 7008 W. Oceanfront. Relocation of the
courts at 28d', 41", 42 "d, 43`dStreets and 3909 W. Oceanfront are not possible, due to the
width of the beach, impact of high tides or access for beach maintenance vehicles (pp.54-
56).
A tandem volleyball court was also installed at the end of 14'h Street adjacent to the
blacktop at Newport Elementary School to accommodate summer camp for youth
volleyball players (ages 9 -14), which ends July 23. The court will be removed following
that program.
Modification of the Court at 2406 W. Oceanfront
The Community Services staff consulted with the Fire and Marine Department staff on the
possibility of repositioning the 2406 W. Oceanfront court further toward the ocean and
inquired specifically if such a move would negatively impact the visibility at the adjacent
lifeguard tower. Such a relocation, if possible, could lessen the impact on the boardwalk
traffic and the residents in the 2400 block of W. Oceanfront.

Page 4
The Fire & Marine Department reported that a shifting of the court 10 feet further toward •
the ocean would not negatively impact the activity of the lifeguard station. Alternatively,
the Department suggested that to alleviate possible congestion on the boardwalk, the court
be relocated to the end of 25 " street.
Possible Installation of Court to 26th Street
Resolution 92 -93 authorizes the placement of a court at 26th Street. Historical aerial photos
indicate that the court at 26th Street has never been installed. A petition from residents in
this neighborhood is included in the attached correspondence (pp. 75 -77).
Correspondence
In addition to the survey responses received in September 1998, the following
correspondence and petitions have been received on this matter (pp. 57 -77):

Re: Volleyball Court Appeal
RECOMMENDATION
Maintain the volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront.
BACKGROUND
City Council Resolution Number 92 -93, approved August 24, 1992, established the regulations
controlling the installation and maintenance of volleyball playing areas on the public beaches
in the City of Newport Beach. Item 7 of that resolution states:
Applications for removal or relocation of existing courts shall be submitted for approval by
the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission. Submitted applications shall include a
map and written acknowledgment or proof of attempt to notify by certified mail the
. property owners. The location must be posted thirty days in advance with a notice of the
proposed removal.
The Community Services Department received an application for removal of a beach volleyball
court at 2406 W. Oceanfront on September 1, 1998, from Hartwell Construction (Charles
Hartwell, the tenant at 2408 W. Oceanfront), in the name of the property owner Rene Barge.
The instructions given to the applicant required that a formal notification and request for
response be solicited from all property owners within 200 feEt, and that the property owners
formally survey neighboring homeowners by certified mail. The survey was not undertaken.
To facilitate the matter, on September 29, 1998, the Community Services Department sent out
letters to all homeowners within 200 feet of the volleyball court, asking them to respond to a
>„ questionnaire about the court at 2406 W. Oceanfront. Fifty -two questionnaires were mailed; a
total of 17 completed replies were returned. The responses were:
• 8 property owners (representing 12 properties in this area)* did not want the
volleyball poles removed.
Rene Barge, the owner of the subject property, was included in the total of 12
property owners responded that they did not want the court removed.
• 4 property owners wanted the volleyball poles removed.
S property owners responded that they were ambivalent about the issue.
9 surveys were returned because of expired forwarding addresses.
*Of the eight property owners who requested the volleyball poles not be removed, two
each own three properties in the prescribed area.

Status Report
On January 6, 1999 the Community Services Department received a corrected preliminary application
removal of the volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront from tenant Charles Hartwell on behalf of
homeowner, Rene Barge.
The application is preliminary, since one requirement established by Council Resolution 92 -93 is not yet
— documentation of formal notification of all property owners within 100 feet of the court address.

Re: Volleyball Court Appeal
RECOMMENDATION
Maintain the volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront.
CITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION
City Council Resolution Number 92 -93, approved August 24, 1992 established the regulations
controlling the installation and maintenance of volleyball playing areas on the public beaches
in the City of Newport Beach. Item 7 of that resolution states:
Applications for removal or relocation of existing courts shall be submitted for approval by
the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission. Submitted applications shall include a
map and written acknowledgment or proof of attempt to notify by certified mail the
property owners. The location must be posted thirty days in advance with a notice of the
proposed removal.
10 BACKGROUND
At the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission meeting on January 5, 1999, the
Commission reviewed a request by Charles Hartwell, a tenant at 2408 W. Oceanfront, dated
September 1998, for the removal of a beach volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront. After
discussion and public input, the Commission voted 7 -0 to retain the volleyball court.
To appeal the Commission action of January 5, 1999 Charles Hartwell resubmitted an
application on January 7, 1999 for removal of the volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront. The
application from Mr. Hartwell included a letter from the owner of the property, Rene Barge,
i, endorsing the application. Staff waived the required survey and proceeded to properly post the
30 -day notice at the volleyball court to announce that the public hearing would be held on
March 2, 1999 to review the possible removal of the court.
In an effort to respond to residents' concerns, the Community Services staff has been
monitoring the court on a frequent basis since December 1998. During the winter months, the
courts are not used as often as in good weather. Currently, the courts are generally used on
Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons. One staff site visit resulted in a discussion with
players and a concerned resident. The result of the discussion was that the players expressed a
commitment to work with the residents to lessen the impact of their presence at this court.

Re: Volleyball Court at 2406 West Oceanfront
At the City Council meeting on April 12, 1999, a councilmember requested information
regarding the volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront. The matter was also raised during
Public Comments at the same meeting.
CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZATION OF THE VOLLEYBALL COURT5
Formal City Council approval of volleyball courts on public beaches was originally undertaken
in a Council resolution in 1982. The resolution established regulations for controlling the
locations, installation and maintenance of the courts; it was revised in 1987. The current
applicable revision is Council Resolution No. 92 -93, approved August 24, 1992.
There are 67 courts located along the City's six and a half -mile coastline. The authorized list
includes courts at 24" Street, 26'" Street, and 28'" Street. Historical aerial photos indicate that a
'court at 26'" Street was never installed. These same photos clearly show courts at the 24" and
28'" street locations
Resolution 92 -93 states, "no volleyball courts shall be installed within fifty feet (50') of a
property line or sidewalk." The courts at 24'" Street and 28" Street are 50' from the boardwalk.
BACKGROUND ON COURT AT 2406 W. OCEANFRONT
In September 1998, the Community Services Department received a request from Charles
Hartwell, tenant at 2408 W. Oceanfront, requesting removal of the volleyball court at 2406 W.
Oceanfront. The application for removal did not notice the property owners within 100 feet of
the volleyball court, a requirement of the resolution. The Community Services Department
assisted the applicant by noticing all property owners within 200 feet of the volleyball court.
The response from the owners within 100 feet, including the owner of Mr. Hartwell's residence
at 2408 W. Oceanfront, indicated that the court should not be removed. Applicant Hartwell
was notified by letter stating that his request was denied, and that he had the right to appeal the
decision to the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission.
Mr. Hartwell spoke during Public Comments at the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission
meeting on December 8, 1998, and requested that the removal of the volleyball court be
included on the following agenda. At the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission meeting
of January 5, 1999, Commissioners reviewed Mr. Hartwell's request. Aker review and public
input, the Commission voted 7 -0 to retain the volleyball court.
On January 7, 1999, Mr. Hartwell appealing the Commission action resubmitted an application
for removal of the volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront. This time the application from Mr.
Hartwell included a letter from Rene Barge, the owner of Mr. Hartwell's residence, endorsing
the application. Staff waived the required survey and proceeded to properly post a 30-day
notice at the volleyball court to announce that a public hearing would be held on March 2,
1999. At the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission meeting on March 2, after review

In an effort to respond to the concerns of the residents in the area, Community Services staff
have monitored the court on a regular and frequent basis since December 1998. During the
cooler months, the courts are not used as often as in good weather months. Currently, the
courts are generally used on Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons. During one staff site visit,
a discussion between players and a concerned resident resulted in a commitment by the
players to work with the residents to lessen the impact of their presence at this court. There are
no organized games or tournaments held at this site.
For this report, staff researched police reports for the 2400 block of West Oceanfront and
interviewed Marine Division staff about impact from volleyball players using this court. Police
reports indicate that there were fifteen calls from residents in the 2400 block of Oceanfront
during the last 12 months. Twelve of the calls are identified and do not involve volleyball play.
There is no specific information available in the record on the subject of three of the fifteen
calls. These calls did occur during daytime hours; it is not possible to identify whether they are
volleyball related.
Marine Division staff state that on weekends during the summer months the level of volleyball
play at this court draws spectators. They have a concern of maintaining access to the beach
from the West end of the parking lot. The staff has and will continue to mitigate impact on this
beach access point by utilizing cones or temporary fencing. During weekdays and non -
summer months, volleyball court use does not have any effect on the beach access.

question as to it this permit would lust displace vehicles to another block.
He added that he also questions if the current nonresidents parking is a
source of unreasonable noise, traffic hazards, environmental pollution or
devaluation.
Council Member Debay stated that she was surprised that staff was
recommending this, but that she feels that if it has been found to be
reasonable, she can support it on a trial basis. She also pointed out that thq
permits would not be limited to residents. 7
Council Member Ridgeway stated that on the peninsula, where he liv , it is
common practice to move cars to save parking spaces. He added at he is
bothered by the fact that some of the Hazel Drive residents war out of the
their homes and may not be using their garages. He stated at he could
maybe support the two -hour parking time limit but n oy le preferential

City Attorney Burnham stated that, in addition tc a previous criteria
mentioned, he also questions if Section 12.68.030 (G hich states that other
alternative solutions have been found to be unf sible or impractical, has

Council Member Noyes stated his undersyEding of the residents' request
that they be given both the time limit anyhe permit, or neither.
Mayor O'Neil stated that he under od it the same way. He agreed that
Hazel Drive has some unique ch cteristics, He stated that he's not too
concerned about setting a prece t, because he feels that other areas in the
City may warrant preferentia -king also.

proper notification when the matter was before the City Council at its
meeting of April 26, 1999. City Manager Bludau stated that the City Council
could decide to leave the volleyball court in front of 2406 W. Oceanfront,
move it to another location or eliminate it from the current location.
Charles Hartwell, 2408 W. Oceanfront, stated that the volleyball court in
question is under high use and is in a very crowded area. He stated that the
regular volleyball players seem to own the court and it's not a public beach
anymore. He stated that he believes the court should be removed.
Stan Hatch, 1547 Orange Avenue, Costa Mesa, stated that he is a player on
the court at 2406 W. Oceanfront and, responding to the previous speaker's
comments, feels he and the other players respect the public's right to use the
beach. He added that they often leave their personal net up for others to
use. He stated his concern for just moving the court to another location
because it doesn't address the situation. He stated that the players have
worked with the City s Senior Recreation Manager and the only real
improvement that was considered was for the players to warm up at the
ends of the court instead of between the court and the boardwalk.
Andy Reinking, 6001 Newport Shores Drive, a player at the 2406 W.
Oceanfront court, stated that he collected 647 signatures on the opinions of
the public and businesses in the area. He stated that 276 of the signatures
were residents, 43 were businesses and 328 were non-residents. He stated
that all enjoyed watching play and/or having access to the volleyball court.
Mr. Reinking added that the current location of the court is convenient for
several reasons. He concluded by stating that. they clean up after themselves
.
and allow others to use the court.
Council Member Debay stated that she has been to the site. She stated that
although the court is the required distance from the boardwalk, it is near the
start of the bike path at the west end of the parking lot. She stated her
understanding of the fellowship that goes along with having a regular court
to play at, but she expressed her concern for the number of people that
gather to watch the regular players and the congestion that takes place at
that location. She asked if Mr. Reinking and the other players could
encourage the people that gather to continue moving along the boardwalk or
move onto the beach. He stated that they could do so and that it was a good
suggestion.
Brad Dorfman, 2402 W. Oceanfront, stated that the players are not causing
the problem, it's the location of the court that is the problem. He agreed
with Council Member Debay that it's a very congested area to begin with.
He added that it is not just the area contained within the volleyball court,
but the area where the ball will often fly outside the court. He stated that he
doesn't think that he, as a resident, should have to endure a flying volleyball
that could cause property damage or personal injury. He added that the
volleyball court used to be at 261h Street, where he feels there is more room.
He said the regular players are good and lots of people enjoy watching them.
Moses Morezabi, 2406 W. Oceanfront, stated that he is in favor of moving the
volleyball court from 241h Street to 26th Street because the people that gather

block his view. He thinks it makes sense to move it to 2(itn Street because
that location would be at the end of an alley.
Patrick Daw, 259 Lower Cliff Drive, Laguna Beach, stated that the Parks,
Beaches and Recreation Commission voted 7.0 in favor of keeping the
volleyball court at its current location.
the court to provide entertainment for
problems will occur at 26th Street.
He added that the Commission found
the public. He stated that the same
Council Member Ridgeway requested that staff provide more information on
the subject. He understands that this issue has been ongoing for some time
and he would like more background information on what has taken place to
date. He also requested statistics on how many of the volleyball courts on
the peninsula are within 50 feet of the sidewalk. He stated that the court in
question is a problem because it is next to a public parking lot and in a
congested area.
City Manager Bludau stated that none of the beach volleyball courts are
within 50 feet of a property line or sidewalk, per Resolution 92 -93.
Council Member Ridgeway restated his request and asked for a report of the
courts that are at the 50 -foot mark versus those that are farther out.
Community Services Director Kienitz confirmed that no courts are within 50
feet, but that staff could gather the information that Council Member
Ridgeway is requesting.
Council Member Debay stated that the beach is narrow at the 24th Street
location, and the court can't be moved closer to the water because the beach
slopes at that point.
Council Member Ridgeway stated that when the additional information is
provided by staff, the City Council may decide that 50 feet isn't enough in
congested areas such as the 24th Street location.
Council Member Noyes confirmed with Council Member Debay that the
slope disallows moving the 24th Street court any closer to the water. Council
Member Noyes also agreed that all the information on the subject should be
provided to the City Council.
Council Member Ridgeway and Council Member Noyes both mentioned
beach volleyball courts that are much farther than 50 feet from the
boardwalk.
Council Member Ridgeway expressed concern over the firmness of the sand
in this location and the ability for the ball to bounce into the parking lot.
Council Member Glover confirmed that the volleyball court in question is in
District One, Council Member Ridgeway's district.
Motion by Council Member Ridgeway to continue the item to June 28,
1999, to allow staff to provide the City Council with more backup
information.

Council Member Noyes again asked about moving the current court farther
out. The players in attendance stated that it could maybe be moved out ten
feet, but that there also has to be room left for the lifeguard vehicles on the
water side of the court.
Without objection, the motion carried by acclamation.
Council Member Debay asked about the width of the beach at 251h Street,
and was told that it was the same.

Re: Beach Volleyball Court at 2406 W. Oceanfront
The City Council, at the meeting of May 10, requested that a review of the current beach
volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront be placed on the Council agenda.
RECOMMENDATION
a) Make no changes to the current placement of the beach volleyball courts, including
the court at 2406 W. Oceanfront.
or
b) Retain the court at 2406 W. Oceanfront and install an additional beach volleyball
court at the previously authorized site at 26'h Street.
or
C) Remove the beach volleyball court at 2406 W. Oceanfront and install a beach
volleyball court at 26'h Street.
BACKGROUND
City Council Authorization of the Volleyball Courts
City Council approval of volleyball courts on public beaches was originally undertaken in
a Council resolution in 1982. The resolution authorized specific and established
regulations for controlling the locations, installation and maintenance of the courts. It was
subsequently revised in 1987. The current revision is Council Resolution No. 92 -93,
approved August 24, 1992.
There are 67 authorized courts located along the City's six and a half -mile coastline. The
authorized list includes courts at 24'h Street, 26`h Street, and 281h Street. However, historical
aerial photos indicate that the court at 26'h Street has never been installed. These same
photos clearly show courts at the 24`h and 28'h street locations.
Resolution 92 -93 also states, "no volleyball courts shall be installed within fifty feet (50') of
a property line or sidewalk." The courts at 24'h Street and 281h Street are each 50' from the
boardwalk.

Beach Volleyball Court at 2406 West Oceanfront

Court at 2406 W. Oceanfront
In September 1998, the Community Services Department received a request from Charles
Hartwell, tenant at 2408 W. Oceanfront, requesting removal of the volleyball court at
2406 W. Oceanfront. The application for removal did not notice the property owners
within 100 feet of the volleyball court, a requirement of the resolution. The Community
Services Department assisted the applicant by noticing all property owners within 200 feet
of the volleyball court. The response from the owners within 100 feet, including the
owner of Mr. Hartwell's residence at 2408 W. Oceanfront, indicated that the court should
not be removed. Applicant Hartwell was notified by letter stating that his request was
denied, and that he had the right to appeal the decision to the Parks, Beaches and
Recreation Commission.
Mr. Hartwell spoke during Public Comments at the Parks, Beaches and Recreation
Commission meeting on December 8, 1998, and requested that the removal of the
volleyball court be included on the following agenda. At the Parks, Beaches and
Recreation Commission meeting of January 5, 1999, Commissioners reviewed Mr.
Hartwell's request. After review and public input, the Commission voted 7 -0 to retain the
volleyball court.
On January 7, 1999, Mr. Hartwell, resubmitted an application for removal of the volleyball
court at 2406 W. Oceanfront and included in his application a letter from Rene Barge, the
owner of Mr. Hartwell's residence, endorsing the application. Staff posted the required 30-
day notice at the volleyball court, announcing the public hearing on March 2, 1999, at the
Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission meeting. At the March 2 meeting, after review
and public input, the Commission voted 7-0 to retain the volleyball court at the present
site.
An informational report on the placement and use of the volleyball courts on the beach
was requested by the City Council and placed on the April 26 agenda. There was no
public discussion at that meeting.
Authorized Court at 26'h Street
Placement of a beach volleyball court at the authorized 26' Street site could result in
similar local opposition. In 1998, sand berms built to combat the heavy storms impeded on
the 2406 W. Oceanfront court. During this period a court was installed at 26`" Street.
After the berms were removed, a resident complaint resulted in the relocation of the court
on 26'" Street to the original location at 2406 W. Oceanfront. Except for that brief period,
there has not been a court at 26`" Street for at least 15 years. Minimal street parking could
add to the possible impact at this site.
Activity at the 2406 W. Oceanfront Site
Staff contacted other City departments for records of activities on the 2400 block of W.
Oceanfront. Police Department reports indicate that there were fifteen calls from residents
in the 2400 block of Oceanfront during the last 12 months. Twelve of the calls are
52

Page 3
identified and do not involve volleyball play. There is no specific information available in
the record on the subject of the three other calls. These calls did occur during daytime
hours, but it is not possible to identify whether they are volleyball related.
Marine Division staff state that on weekends during the summer months the level of
volleyball play at this court draws spectators. There is an ongoing concern of maintaining
access to the beach from the west -end of the parking lot. Marine staff have and will
continue to mitigate impact on this beach access point by utilizing cones or temporary
fencing. During weekdays and non - summer months use of the volleyball court has no
effect on the safety of the beach access.
In response to the concerns of the residents in the area, Community Services staff have
monitored the court on a regular and frequent basis since December 1998. During the
cooler months, the courts are not used as often as in good weather months. Currently, the
courts are primarily used on Friday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons. During one site visit
by staff, a discussion between players and a concerned resident resulted in a commitment
by the players to work with the residents to lessen the impact of their presence at this
court. There are no organized games or tournaments held at this site.

Re: Objection to the removal of the volleyball court at 2406 Oceanfront.
I wanted to formally state my objection to the removal of the public volleyball court at 2406
Oceanfront. I have enjoyed the public beaches of Newport for fifteen years, and have been a
resident for the last eleven, and am shocked to hear of this proposal to remove a public facility.
Public facilities have always been available in Newport Beach; whether it be the boardwalk, the
pier and restrooms, or the volleyball courts. It would be a shame to see a public facility that is
enjoyed by so many spoiled because of the views of a small minority.
Respectfully,
Todd Swanson

Re: Proposed removal of volleyball court at 24t1 Street on the oceanfront of the Newport
Peninsula.
Dear Mr. Hunt:
I am writing you today as a concerned oceanfront homeowner. I am an owner of the
property at 2806 West Oceanfront. My family has owned the property for over 55 years.
I would like to register my support for the continued existence of a volleyball court at 24th .
Street in Newport Beach. It has been brought to my attention that a request has been made
to have the court in question removed. As a long time member of the beach community, I
believe that would be a terrible mistake. The 24i1 Street court is one of the last courts in
Newport, which continues to have consistent play. To remove it would be a terrible mistake.
Thank you for taking the time to hear my opinion. Please call me at either phone number
below if I can be of any help. I will see you at the March 2 "d City Council meeting.
Sincerely,
David A.

P8� R m4-9 .
I am writing you in regards to the proposed removal of the volleyball court at 24"' Street in Newport Beach.
We spend a great deal of time at this court playing volleyball during the weekends. It is a popular court for
the many recreational volleyball players out there. It seems that there are fewer places to go and play
sports for free these days. Newport Beach, specifically 24'" Street, has provided our family a safe and
inexpensive place to play volleyball. I think that the removal of this court would be a big mistake, and will
greatly impact the few other areas around where people can gather to play volleyball.
Thank you for taking the time to read my letter. Your consideration to this matter is appreciated.
Sincerely,

Newport Beach, CA 92663
Dear Ms. Fisher,
It is my understanding that removal of the volleyball court at 24th street is
under consideration by the city recreation department of Newport Beach. I
have lived and worked in Newport Beach for over 20 years. I own a home in
Newport Beach and a portion of my property tax goes to the city of Newport
Beach. Since moving to Newport Beach in the late 1970's, I have enjoyed
many of the recreational opportunities in this community including surfing, bike
riding, and playing volleyball on a regular basis. I have enjoyed recreational
volleyball at a number of courts in Newport over the years including 24th, 28th
and 30th street.
I am very much opposed to the city removing any of the volleyball courts and
specifically the court at 24th street. I have enjoyed playing volleyball at 24th
street for many years. I am not aware of the specific rationale for considering
removing the court but my experience at 24th street has been positive. I am
cognizant of the fact that some ocean front residents may not want a volleyball
court "on their beach" or "near their house" for a variety of reasons.
Fortunately, the ocean, beach and volleyball courts are here for anyone who
comes to enjoy these resources. I urge you not to remove the volleyball court
at 24th street and I appreciate the fact that the city continues to support and
maintain the courts. Many of the people that live in Newport do so because of
all of the recreational activities that are available.
Sincerely yo rs�

To: Newport Beach City Council
From: 2406 W. Oceanfront Residence Committee
Re: Volleyball Court Appeal
Relocate 2406 W. Oceanfront volleyball court to 26th Street.
*The Parks and Recreations did not follow city guidelines provided
by city council resolution NO. 92-93, (See highlighted attachments).
*Parks and Recreations are not providing safe access to beach
recreation, which guidelines are covered in CA State Assembly Bill
1422 -April 7, 1976, releasing state beaches to city control. This .
bill states that: "The city shall promote safe and accessible
recreation to beaches which shall favorably affect the scenery and
serenity of the area."
*The Parks and Recreations are allowing the unlawful assembly of
spectator viewing of semi - professional and professional volleyball
games.
The local residents' applied for relocation of 2406 W. volleyball court on
September 1, 1998. Over the past two years, the beachfront property
owners have noticed a growing number of volleyball spectators. These
spectators are causing crowding and an unsafe condition for beach patrons
and boardwalk pedestrians. The potential for accidents to occur involving
bicyclists, rollerbladers and joggers is apparently growing. It has also
been observed that emergency vehicles and local lifeguard authorities
have been extremely hindered to navigate through the crowds.
During the research conducted by the beachfront property owners it was .
64
VO. cYPALL COURT RELOCATION A EAL
discovered that city council resolution 92 -93 in 1998 provided bicycle
• turnouts and benches at volleyball court locations to avoid such
congestion problems that currently exist at 2406. It was also discovered
that a turnout was provided at 26th street. Between the period of 1988 to
1992, the volleyball courts were moved from the 26th Street location and
placed unauthorized at the 2406 location where there is no bicycle turnout
and bench area provided. (See map A).
Motion to place appeal on April 26, 1999 calendar with a 14 day notice of
appeal at 2406 Street volleyball court location.

To Newport City Council Members:
This Petition is to oppose the placement of a volleyball court at 26 h street in
Newport Beach. This location is one of the narrowest parts of Newport
Beach, and is already a highly congested area.
The one trial weekend that a volleyball court was placed there, it caused
numerous incidents. One volleyball strayed from the court and dangerously
went under the tire of a child's bicycle. There were also reports of stray
balls randomly crossing the boardwalk into the yards of oceanfront property.
That weekend was a disaster and the idea of a permanent fixture of that
nature would be an even bigger disaster. We, the residents of this
community, want to express our strong opposition to this idea.
Thank you for your help in preserving our coastal living environment.
