ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION: Item N6 At the October 26, City Council meeting, General Plan Amendment 81 -1 was referred to,the Parks,. Beaches and Recreation Commission for additional information on alternatives available for the location and development of a park in relation to the Beeco General Plan Amendment. Specific locations are: 1) Caltrans property; 2) Seminuk Slough; or 3) within the boundaries of 81 -1. The purpose of the meeting tonight is to solicit input from the public. This item will be referred back to the City Council on December 14. Barbara Coe - Newport Crest Legislative Alliance - stated that t eir objective is to obtain a park where the kids in Newport Crest can play. Every area other than Newport "15th Crest has a park available to the residents. The Street park proposal is their choice for a park in Newport Crest. Four acres and one acre in lieu fees. Louise.Greele - Chairman of West Newport Legislative fiance -Their proposal will generate more housing, less traffic, and according to the plan, will generate more dollars to the City and will give the applicant a return on.his investments, similar to that of what the GPA 81 -1 proposes. tdargo Ski lling - For over 20 years there has not been a park in West Newport. The closest playing field is Peninsula Park. This was referred to the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission to decide on placement of the park, not whether we need one or not. The land in the Seminuk Slough area is accessible to West Newport, sailing, windsurfing, etc. Their second choice is CalTrans West property. B_illlBBaahhniin - representative of Beeco Ltd. - presented details-of of proposed GPA 81 -1 development for the Banning Newport Ranch.

Commission 9 ti• \��T9�K4tk' City Council C.ha.mbers. 7pm i moon Chairman Ammerman stated that a significant amount of information is needed. He will appoint a committee to go over the advantages and disadvantages of various sites and come up with a recommendation for the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission meeting in December. The committee will cpnsist of Commissioners Morin, Ross, and Cole as Chairman. Item X17 The West Newport Legislative Alliance has requested that a West Newport committee be formed by the City Council to investigate Legislative ways and means to obtain for the City the property known Alliance to as Caltrans-West. The City Council referred the request acquire "Cal• to the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission, recognizing Trans West" that the-Commission was the "City's Committee" for open space land acquisition and, therefore, hesitated to create' a committee that might duplicate the efforts of the PB & R Commission. Louise Greeley, Chairperson, stated that the City is desirous of rerouting Superior Road. The plan that was deemed most satisfactory is to reroute Superior so that it chops off a portion of Cattrans West and cuts off the sharp curve. Superior will be widened. Chairman Ammerman suggested that an Ad Hoc Committee be formed to report back to the Commission. Commissioner Morin recommends that there be two ex- officio members on the Committee, a Council person, and a member of the Commission. He recommends that Ruthelyn Plummer be that Council, person. The Commission will recommend to the City Council that they appoint an ex- officio member. The Ad.-Hoc Committee will consist of Commissioner Hopkins as Chairman. Louise Greeley will also be on the Committee. Commissioner Morin also recommends that appropriate homeowner groups be on the Committee. Those homeowner groups would include: Newport Crest, Lido Sands, West Newport, and Villa Balboa. One member from each group on the sub - committee. Item S8 Some of the major goals and objectives of the PB & R Goals and Commission for fiscal year ending June 30, 1982, are: Objectives 1. Sports Complex - (a) To select an actual site; and (b) to obtain council and community support of the concept.. -3- i CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH Commissioners Parks Beaches & Recreation Commission IW' ��{. > . S"' vi,y vVuna.:, vnr+n.�v:v �... F incl @X ttaining this goal, a committee will be formed to be onstant communication with the Irvine Company regarding Fan ppropriate site. The committee will work with staff emonstrating the need for the sports complex. The ittee wi'l'l consist of: Chairman Ammerman and Vice Chairman Stuart. 2. To Enhance Communication with Council - In meeting this goal, a park tour has been planned for November 7. Additionally, quarterly correspondence will be sent to the Council regarding the Commission's progress on attaining their goal's and objectives. Chairman Ammerman would like to implement a new procedure wherein a representative of the PB & R Commission, perhaps on a rotational basis., would be in attendance at all City Council meetings having matters pertaining to Parks, Beaches and Recreation. l_ 3. To Enhance Communication with Staff and to Assist Staff in arious.Projects - The Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission intends to pursue a more active role in assisting staff in planning special events for the City. Additionally, it may be appropriate to have "mixers" or other social.events with the entire PB & R Department to assist the Commission in ascertaining the needs of the staff. The committee: Commissioners Morin and Ammerman. 4. Enhance Community Involvement and'Awareness - In realizing this goal, the PB & R Commission should establish a publicity committee wherein a Commissioner would actually prepare press releases to local newspapers informing the community of upcoming events and various Commission activities and decisions. The publicity committee could be responsible for sending correspondence regarding PB & R Commission activities and decisions to various homeowners associations. The committee: Com- missioners Cohen and Ammerman. Chairman Ammerman stated that the aforementioned goals are quite ambitious. Nevertheless, he feels that they are l realistic provided that we work together and continuously -4- 0 i i i 0 i f CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH Commissioners Parks Beaches & Recr- eation Commission •y - P� 9y s City Council C.ha.nn berS. 7pm monitor our collective success. It is his intention that the PB & R Commission function in a proactive capacity rather than reactive. Since our fiscal year is already one third over, our success is dependent upon the efforts of each Commissioner. Item 99 City Councii'has been notified by the Commissioners'of the park tour for November 7, and received a good response from them. Item 1110 Jeff Kolin stated that we would like to continue all the events as annual events. Most of the dates for next year are set.

That a public access easement be provided to the Cal Trans'West site. 2. The public access easment not be given park dedication credit and that the easment should be approved at the time of development by the Planning Commission and the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission. 3. That the minimum size of a future Park be +5 acres to be located on the Cal Trans West site. 4. That the Banning Ranch park requirement be satisfied by in lied fees. • 5. That all Building Excise Tax funds generated from the proposed commercial- industrial development in the pro- posed Banning Ranch project be allocated'to development of the park site. • DISCUSSION: The designated sub - committee met with staff and reviewed all testimony presented.at the Commission meeting of November 3, 1981. The Committee thonoughly discussed all alternatives for park loca- tion and feasible methods of obtaining adequate funds to develop a park in the study area. Realizing that the West Newport area, in general, is an extremely recreational deficient area, the re- commendation is felt to improve and provide a park opportunity for several communities. The proposal will provide a park for the proposed Banning Ranch development; and, with minor access improvements, the Newport Crest area and if Cal Trans West were":to be developed would combine that resource with the Banning Ranch property to provide an adequate size for a neighborhood park.

Members of the Board plan to be in attendance at this meeting to further present and discuss the proposal. Sincerely, Je y Morrison it Enclosures 8 cc: Sanford J. Cole 2127 Windward Newport Beach, CA. 92660 40 0 A Proposed Project for • REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT of EUCALYPTUS CITRIODORA TREES on SANDCASTLE DRIVE PROBLEM: The tall eucalyptus citriodora trees-in the City of Newport Beach Parkways of Sandcastle Drive, Harbor View Hills (South) havefor many years caused view blockage or impairment for many of our residents. As the stature of these trees has increased, so has the view problem. The biennual pruning and thinning paftially alleviates the problem„ but only for about 3 months, and is not considered a solution. BACKGROUND: Removal and replacement of these trees has been discussed in prior years between the City and the Homeowners' Board of Directors. The City Parks and Recreation Department also studied this problem in 1978. The following references are attached. Jack Brooks, "View Problems "; report to Calvin C. Stewart, Director, Feb. 2, 1978 Jack Brooks, Letter to Homeowners Associations, April 21, 1978 Lloyd Krause, Letter to Parks, Beaches, and Recrea- tion Dept., May 21, 1978 MJerry MorriAgh , Letter to Bob Stine, HVHHOA President, Feb. 16, 1979. In summary, these references recommend removal and replacement of the Sandcastle trees, and suggest constraints on the replace- ments as to their growth rate, height,'and controllability. However, no definite,.scheduled plan was promulgated. At its meeting of Oct. 7, 1981, our Board of Direc- tors moved to foster a project jointly with the City for restoration of viewsthrough removal.and replacement of the Euc. Citriodora trees on'Sandcastle Drive. PROPOSED SOLUTION: Rem.ove.all the Eucalyptus'Citriodora trees on Sandcastle Drive; replace approximately 70% of them, to reduce the average spacing to 70 ft. or so. Replacement trees are to be of small mature stature; slow- growing; their height to be continuously maintainable at or below lampost height; and of evergreen leaved/ vpriety. The removal and replacement work wi3�l��ferformed by the City; our HVHHOA will assist in establishing schedule prio rities. A definite schedule and procedural plan is requested. COST: Our Association is prepared to share the cost on a 50 -50 basis; a firm commitment must await the City's . anticipated cost. There are a tot al of !9$ euc. cit. trees to be removed and 70% replaced. A time - phased program may be feasible.

If you will recall, in that conversation I des- cribed their problem to you. You requested that I prepare a written communication to you explicitly addressing and setting forth the nature of their grievances so that you could distribute the information to and discuss the same with appropriate City Departments. On or about June 15, 1981 I communicated such a letter to you, a copy of which is enclosed herewith for your reference. When your response to my letter of June 15, 1981 was not forthcoming and on or about August 7, 1981, and again on September 4, 1981 I re- communicated a copy of the same letter to you undercover of letter which requests your response to said letter.

City Attorney City of Newport Beach 3300 Newport Boulevard Newport Beach, CA 92663 Re: Sandcastle Right of Way Dear Mr. Coffin: Please be advised that our office represents the the interests of those individual residents of Newport Beach, whose names and addresses are set forth on the attached client list. As we discussed briefly in our telephone conversa- tion of June 9, 1981, our clients are concerned and distressed over a situation involving a stand of eucalyptus trees within the city's right of way along Sandcastle Drive, approximately between Tiller Way and Topside Lane in the City of Newport Beach. In recent years the subject trees have been neglected by the City and their now extreme height obstructs the ocean - views from the residences of our clients, many of whom pur- chased their residences primarily for the view of the ocean. Further, because of their height, the trees along Sandcastle Drive discharge a substantial amount of debris onto the street, thus creating a seriously hazardous driving condition to all residents in the area who utilize this heavily trafficked street. Until recently,and for many years prior, the City had maintained the trees at a re >sonable height. Further, the trees were thinned and maintained so that wind and other damage would not cause a hazard to motorists. r 1 U W • e j Hugh Coffin, Esq. -2- June 15, 1981 Since the time the trees became a problem to them, certain of our clients have contacted both the Department of Public Works and the Department of Parks and Recreation in an effort to resolve the problem, with no apparent success. As their last resort, they have come to us and have requested that we discuss resolution of this mattes with you, and it is in this spirit of discussion that we hope to resolve the problem in a nonadversary context. Because our clients were sufficiently concerned over this matter to contact us, we anticipate that you and the City of Newport Beach will be equally concerned over the foregoing, and that you will contact me at your earliest convenience so that we may discuss alternatives to resolution of this matter. Your assistance, cooperation and patience relative to the foregoing is sincerely appreciated. SRD:jg Paul Queyrel Very truly yours, BEEKMAN & DONLEY Steven R. ® 'ley • Mr $ Mrs William G.

The lower level is a garage area that has no feasible access except to obtain an encroachment across Cliff Drive Park. The encroachment would be in an area that has little or no improvement to the city owned land approximately 95 feet beyond the alley that services the Stuft Noodle restaurant area. It would be helpful if the Commission would go by and take a look at the location.to gain a familiarity with the request. . Ronald A.
