to the community.

the Commission's Community Service Award. Mrs.
Black thanked the Commission, City, staff and her
husband for their support.

On behalf of the. Commission and children in the

Saturday nights they are always sold out. They
have entertained a group of underprivileged
children with ""Sherlock Holmes" along with
providing entertainment for senior citizen
groups.
Commissioner Glasgow recommended contacting the
two high schools to get them involved and perhaps
put on a combined performance.
•
Chair Vandervort pointed out that the current
play, "Cyrano," is an incredible performance.
Mrs. Sampson agreed, noting that the Theatre is

play. She then thanked the Commission for their

IV. PUBLIC COMMENTS
Public Comments was addressed following Item #5.
Dr. Jan Vandersloot, 2221 E. 16th Street,
addressed the Commission. Dr. Vandersloot passed
out and summarized his proposed Operational
Guidelines to Maintain the Aesthetic and
Environmental Values of the Avon Street Creek
Wetlands at the Base of Cliff Drive Park, West
Side.
Commissioner Grant thanked Dr. Vandersloot for
the thorough job he did and recommended staff
review the guidelines which would then be brought
back to this Commission.
•
Commissioner Herberts stated she felt Dr.
Vandersloot should his
present review along with
staff's suggestions at this meeting.
Jack Brooks advised he has contacted both the
Public Works and General Services Departments and
they have agreed that the Parks Division can
maintain the area as long as the street's
stability is not endangered. Director Whitley
clarified that this Department will maintain the
area in conjunction with the park being
developed.
Following discussion concerning implementing Dr.
Vandersloot's proposed guidelines, Commissioner
Grant recommended staff work with Dr. Vandersloot
limiting the recommendations to guidelines and
goals but not regulations or rules, after which
'the Park and Open Space Committee will review
prior to being agendized for the Commission in 2-
3 months.
Robert Gardner, 823 W. Balboa, addressed the
Commission regarding his concerns over the
Department killing the ice plant on the west side
of Cliff Drive Park. He gave examples of other
•
areas of the City where the ice plant is healthy
and looks good with little or no maintenance.
Commissioner Demmer pointed out that the Cliff
Drive Park community has been waiting for many
'
years for their park to be refurbished and that
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH
arks, Beaches & Recreation Commission
Page 4
Citv Council Chambers 7 o.m. INDEX
funds have been slowly appropriated towards the
project. The approved plan will replace the ice
plant with native California indigenous plants
which is what the residents favored.
V. ACTION ITEMS
Item 05 - Tree Appeal - 1748 Bayport
Tree Appeal -
1748 Bayport
Director Whitley gave a brief review of the
applicant's appeal of the Tree Committee's
decision to retain the 3 Ficus Nitida.
In response to a question from Commissioner
Demmer, Jack Brooks explained the Ficus Nitida
has been the designated tree, however, the
Department is no longer planting them.
•
Commissioner Herberts pointed out the current
designated tree is the Brisbane Box both
on
Bayport Way and Holiday Road. She further
clarified page 3 of Mr. Williams' letter
regarding staff's recommendations which was a
result of a misunderstanding of Mr. Brooks'
statement.
Commissioner Demmer inquired about the thrips and
Jack Brooks explained they are prevalent and
common on Ficus Nitida. He stated that although
they are hard to control, they become inactive
and do not kill trees.
Mr. Stewart Williams, 1748 Bayport Way, addressed
the Commission. Mr. Williams asked for removal
and replacement of the three Ficus Nitida which,
he felt, are not only unsuitable as parkway
trees, but the invasive roots also raise the
sidewalk, driveway and curb presenting a danger
to pedestrians. He further stated the roots have
been expensive since they go into his sewer
lines. Mr. Williams then presented pictures of
the Ficus Nitida in the Westcliff area, all of
which have cost the taxpayers due to sidewalk and
curb replacements.
•�
During discussion, Commissioner Herberts pointed
out that many residents in Westcliff bought in
this area because of the trees. She felt there
was no problem with the trees on Bayport but that
the tree on Holiday Road needs to be root pruned
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH
s� y Parks, Beaches & Recreation Commission
Page 5
City Cpuncil Chambers 7 p.m. INDEX
and tested for stability.
Commissioner Glasgow agreed the trees on Bayport
should remain but recommended the tree on Holiday
Road be removed since it is lifting up the
driveway.
Commissioner Demmer recommended removing the tree
on Holiday Road and replacing it with two trees
where needed provided they would be properly
maintained.
Commissioner Konwiser concurred the tree on
Holiday Road should be removed and reported he
counted 6 different varieties of trees on
Bayport. He also agreed with Mr. Williams that
the tree is not a suitable parkway tree. Since
this would be a good opportunity to start a
•
harmonious program, he recommended removing the 3
trees and replacing them with 3 or 4 trees.
Motion
Commissioner Herberts moved to replace the tree
on Holiday Road with 2 trees at a better location
and to retain the 2 existing trees on Bayport at
the present time.
Motion

Commissioner Demmer made a substitute motion to
Ayes

Motion passes.
Item #6 - Tree Appeal - 315 Pirate Road
Tree Appeal -
315 Pirate
Jack Brooks reported that the applicant took out
Road'
an encroachment permit for his new driveway
before the Tree Committee met. Both staff and
the committee recommended retaining the subject
tree since it is a healthy tree and can be root
pruned.
Mr. Joseph Robinson, 315 Pirate Road, addressed
the Commission and reported his new driveway will
be approximately 15" from the tree which will
•
cause safety and aesthetic problems. He then
presented his proposed plan which has been
designed for planting a new tree at a different
location at his expense.
Commissioner Herberts reported that the existing
CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH
arks, Beaches & Recreation Commission
Page 6
City Cpuncil Chambers 7 p.m. INDEX
tree, according to an arborist and Arbor Age
magazine, is worth approximately $30,000. The
tree is also part of the tree scape and raises
the value of a home 15 %.
Commissioner Glasgow felt that since the tree
goes straight up, Mr. Robinson could still use
the driveway and the tree should be retained and
the ,planter removed.
Commissioner Grant recommended the tree be
retained and the driveway be redesigned to wiggle
around the tree, leaving more than 15" between
the tree and driveway.
Commissioner Konwiser felt the tree belongs on
the street since it blends in beautifully. He
•
favored retaining the tree, wiggling the driveway
and cutting the back.
- planter
Commissioner Demmer pointed out that removing
City trees to accommodate remodels could set a
dangerous precedent. She favored retaining the
tree due to its aesthetic value to the
neighborhood.

Commissioner Glasgow motioned to retain the tree

and pursue relocating the planter and putting in
root barrier. Unanimous.
Chair Vandervort advised Mr. Robinson to notify
Jack Brooks when the brick is removed and that he
can appeal the Commission's decision to the City
Council.
Item 47 - Naming of New Park in West Newport
Naming of
New Park in
Director Whitley reported that the new mini park
Test Newport
in West Newport has been referred to as Newport
Shores Park and it is staff's recommendation that
it be so named.
Commissioner Grant moved to name the new park
•
Newport Shores Park. Unanimous.

Item #11 - Tree Committee
Tree
Committee
Commissioner Herberts reported that, although
there was no formal meeting, they conferred by
phone and agreed with staff on all
recommendations with one exception being to
retain one tree.
Chair Vandervort inquired about the samples of
the Tree Division's new computer system. Jack
Brooks explained this was presented to
Commissioner Grant, however, he will provide the
information to the full Commission at their
November meeting.
Commissioner Grant suggested a policy be
considered on the Ficus Nitida, namely, if there
are root problems, then it would be acceptable to
.
remove without going through the process.
Commissioner Vandervort suggested that Ficus
Nitida problems continue to be handled on an
individual basis because of the various
ramifications involved, such as street scapes,
widths of tree strips, etc.
Commissioner Grant also requested the issue of
street tree requirements for remodels be
addressed and formally initiated in the Planning
Department's process.
Commissioner Grant also brought up the subject of
illegal tree removals and the subsequent letter
sent by the City Attorney. Jack Brooks advised
the Police Department told him they cannot do
anything if the homeowner has not been observed
removing the tree.
Commissioner Grant recommended a joint meeting
with appropriate members of the Council address
this issue.
Commissioners Konwiser and Herberts agreed the
matter of illegal tree removals should be
•
pursued.
ID
Commisisoner Herberts recommended the Ficus
Nitida issue should be addressed individually and

changes recommended.
Chair Vandervort then determined that there be no
recommendations to the policies.

Commissioner Herberts pointed out that since the

used for aerobic classes, there are none
scheduled for this side of the bay. Nancy'Beard
advised she will research the matter and report
•
back.
Commissioner Grant questioned priority usage at
CYC, particularly with regard to the AA groups.
Nancy Beard explained that priority is given to
youth groups, and that those concerned should
contact her directly.
Commissioner Demmer inquired about the revenue
being up while participation was down. Nancy

at vacant sites.
Item 012 - Recreation Program Committee
Recreation
Program
Commissioner Grant reviewed the meeting held
Committee
September 24 with Mr. and Mrs. Dan Rabun and
residents of Newport North regarding Bonita Creek
Park. Corrective action will be taken regarding
trash, scheduling, traffic and parking problems.
He personally felt there are no traffic or
parking problems if there is no double
scheduling. The cheerleaders will move to
another area of the park on Mondays where it will
be quieter, and there was a suggestion to pursue
an exit on University.
•
Unresolved is the Disclosure matter which is
between the buyer and seller and the whistles
creating noise. Alternate sites were explored
for Junior All American Football, however, Bonita
Creek is the only one available.
Commissioner Herberts reported that when she was
visiting the area, Mr. Tappan showed her the
fountain he had put in to help mitigate the
noise. She stated she could hear traffic, but
not whistles, and observed there were 32 unused
parking spaces. She stated Mr. Tappan felt the
games should remain at the park and he felt the
changes approved would help .solve most of the
problems. He also hoped another entrance could
be implemented.
In response to Commissioner Demmer's inquiry
about the amenities requested during the meeting,
Commissioner Grant stated this Commission
historically endorses trees, benches, etc.
Commissioner Konwiser agreed, noting that
although the improvements will not affect the
problems, the homeowners should address the
Commission if they want amenities.

In response to a question from Commissioner
Glasgow, Nancy Beard advised there will be no
double bookings and that one field will be kept
open at all times until 5:00 P.M., at which time
it must be prepared for 6:00 P.M. softball.

TO: Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission
FROM: Parks, Beaches and Recreation Director
SUBJECT: STREET TREE REMOVAL APPEAL - 900 ALMOND PLACE
Mr. Roger Conant, residing at 915 Alder Place, has requested the
removal of pine trees located in the parkway on Alta Vista of the
corner lot identified as 900 Almond. Mr. Conant's letter appealing
the Street Tree Committee's decision to retain the trees is
attached.
As this is a view problem request, a careful look should be taken
by the Commission on this matter. If there are questions, please
feel free to call.

Attention: Jack Brooks
Dear Sirs:
I am attempting to have the City remove two trees that obstruct the
view from my home. The Newport Beach Street Tree Committee has
reviewed and denied my request to have it done. I wish to hereby
appeal that decision to the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission.
The trees in question are on the east side Alta Vista between Alder
Place and Almond place. They are very large pine trees. When
initially planted these trees were not a problem but they have grown to
the point where they almost completely obstruct my view to the west.
Where I once had a very nice view I now have literally none. Just
trimming the trees would be ineffective because over the years the
lower branches of the trees have been trimmed and now the only branches
•remaining are those that are quite high and they are the ones that
obstruct my view.
The Eastbluff C C & R's prohibit planting of any tree that will, at
maturity, obstruct the view of any lot. The C C & R's also provide the
Association the authority to have removed any tree that obstructs the
view from an individual lot. In regards to public property within the
Eastbluff tact the City of Newport Beach is not legally obligated to
comply with those C C & R's. However, it would seem reasonable that
the City would also not plant and maintain trees on public land that
obstructs the view of any homeowner in Eastbluff. To do so abrogates
the protection provided by the C C & R's.
I respectfully request that the Commission consider my appeal and
have removed the trees in question as promptly as is reasonably
possible.
My original request to the Street Tree Committee outlined my
problem in good detail. I am enclosing a copy of that original
request.
Respectfully yours,

TO: Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission
FROM: Parks, Beaches and Recreation Director
SUBJECT: WATER EFFICIENT LANDSCAPE ORDINANCE
The State Department of Water Resources is proposing that all
public agencies have in place by January of 1993 a water efficient
landscape ordinance. The Utilities Committee of the City of
Newport Beach has requested that the attached information and model
ordinance be reviewed by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation
Commission.
As there is some time to pursue this matter, it may be helpful to
refer this to a Commission subcommittee for detailed review and

NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULEMAKING
NOTICE OF PROPOSED ADOPTION OF A MODEL WATER EFFICIENT LANDSCAPE
ORDINANCE TO IMPLEMENT THE WATER CONSERVATION IN LANDSCAPING ACT
NOTICE:
The Department of Water Resources (Department) proposes to adopt
the Model Water Efficient Landscape ordinance (Model ordinance)
to implement the Water Conservation in Landscaping Act, Statutes
of 1990, Chapter 1145, after considering all comments,
objections, or recommendations regarding the proposed action.
PROPOSED ACTION:
The Department proposes to adopt sections 700 through 704 in
Chapter 7, Division 2 of Title 23 of the California Code of
Regulations. These sections pertain to a Model Water ,Efficient
Landscape Ordinance that would apply to cities and counties that
have not adopted a water efficient landscape- ordinance or that
have not adopted findings that such an ordinance is unnecessary.
PUBLIC HEARING,:
The Department will conduct two public hearings on the proposed
Model Ordinance: one on October 2, 1991, at 9:00 a.m. in The
State Office Building, Room 1138, 107 South Broadway, Los
Angeles, California; arrd- '-a:hother on October 8, 1991, at 9:00 a.m.
in the Auditorium of the Resources Building, 1416 Ninth Street,
Sacramento, California. Any person wishing to make a statement
may do so at these hearings. The Department will receive -both
oral and written statements and comments. It is requested, but
not required, that persons making oral comments at the hearings
submit a written copy of their testimony at the hearings.
The hearing rooms at the Resources Building and The State Office
Building are accessible to persons with mobility impairments.
The nearest off - street parking for the Resources Building is in
the garage at 10th and "O" Streets.
WRITTEN COMMENT PERIOD:
Any interested person, or his or her authorized representative,
• may submit to the Department their written comments relevant to
the proposed regulatory action.

Section 700 of the proposed Model Ordinance clarifies the
legislative intent and describes the purpose of the ordinance.
The purpose of the Model Ordinance is to establish a structure
for designing, installing, and maintaining water efficient
landscapes. Section 701 defines terms used in the proposed Model
Ordinance. These definitions include technical terms that the
general public may find unfamiliar but are commonly used in
landscape design and terms that may appear common but have
specific meaning in the Model Ordinance.
Section 702 describes the provisions,of the Model Ordinance that
apply to new or rehabilitated landscapes. These provisions
specify to whom the Model Ordinance applies and how the affected
parties comply with the Model ordinance. Developers and public
agencies subject to the Model Ordinance must submit a landscape
documentation package to the appropriate city or county.
The documentation package is to include plans and statements that
substantiate water efficient landscape design and management.
The Model ordinance describes what the project proponent must
submit to complete the documentation package. The documentation
package consists of ten elements: (1) Water Conservation Concept
Statement, (2) Calculation of a Maximum Water Allowance, (3)
Landscape Design Plan, including plant selection and grouping,
• (4) Irrigation Design Plan, including• the use of recycled water,
(5) Irrigation Schedules, (6) Landscape Maintenance Schedules,
(7) Landscape Irrigation Audit Schedules,, (8) Grading Design
Plan, (9) Soil Analysis, and (10) Certification. This section
also has provisions for public education on water efficient
landscaping.
Landscape irrigation audits are to be, at a minimum, in
accordance with the California Landscape Water Management Program
as described in the Landscape Irrigation Auditor Handbook, the
entire document which is incorporated by reference in the Model
Ordinance. (See Landscape Irrigation Auditor Handbook, Dept. of
Wat. Resources, Wat. Conservation Office (June 1990) version 5.5
[Formerly Master Auditor Training].)
Section 703 includes provisions that pertain to existing
landscapes and that apply to cities and counties that are also
water purveyors. These provisions include water management
schedules and water waste prevention.
Section 704 provides a table of Reference Evapotranspiration
numbers that are used to calculate maximum water allowances.
Reference Evapotranspiration is a standard measurement of
environmental parameters that affect the water use of plants.

prescriptive standards.
(D) Exemption or partial exemption from the regulatory
requirements for small businesses.
Significant effect on housing cost: Minimal. Homeowner provided
landscaping at single - family and multi - family homes and projects
with a 'landscaped area less than 1,000 square feet will not be
affected by the Model Ordinance.
Developer installed landscapes at single - family and multi - family
residences are subject to the Model Ordinance. Additional cost
associated with the Model Ordinance could include:
* costs associated with additional document processing
and certification through the local agency planning
department;
* additional expense associated with installation of a
separate landscape meter, rain shut off devices, and
automatic controllers;
* additional expense associated with developing
irrigation schedules, conducting an irrigation audit,
conducting a soil test, and scheduling maintenance
tasks.
In many cases, the cost of installing and maintaining water
efficient landscapes as detailed in the Model Ordinance would not
exceed the cost of installing and maintaining landscapes not
subject to the ordinance. The difference in cost could range
from $500 to $1000 per project, depending upon the equipment
selected, local review fees and procedures, and the hourly rates
of local landscape professionals.
CONSIDERATION OF ALTERNATIVES':
In accordance with Government Code section 11346.5,
subdivision (a) (7), the Department must determine that no
alternative considered by it would be more effective in carrying
out the purpose for which the action is proposed or would be as
effective and less burdensome to affected private persons than
the proposed action.
The Department invites interested persons to present statements
or arguments with respect to alternatives to the proposed
regulations at the above mentioned hearing or during the written
comment period. The Department is especially interested in
receiving comments on the effect of the Model Ordinance to limit
the use of certain high water using plants, such as turf,
including comments discussing whether the evapotranspiration (ET)
adjustment factor is too high or too. low; and whether
`precipitation should be included in calculations for maximum

SUBJECT: PARK DEDICATION FOR RESUBDIVISIONS
7
Over the last two years, from October 1985 to September 1987, the City of
Newport Beach approved thirty -six resubdivisions. Of these, nineteen of the
approvals provided for a greater number of dwelling units than were then
existing on the properties with a net increase of twenty -eight dwelling units.
These nineteen resubdivisions were distributed in various areas of the City as
follows:

Balboa Peninsula

West Newport

Newport Heights

Lido Island

All of the resubdivisions except one, (providing for one additional single -
family dwelling), were for condominium purposes.
Section 19.50.020 of the Municipal Code provides that:
As a condition of approval of a Tentative Subdivision Map or a
Parcel Map, the subdivider shall dedicate land, pay a fee in lieu
thereof, or both, at the option of the City, for the purpose of
developing new, or rehabilitating existing, neighborhood and
community parks and recreational facilities, to serve the sub-
division, at the time and according to the standards and formulas
contained in this ordinance.
Those projects approved by means of a resubdivision, as opposed to a tract map,
are generally smaller projects for which land dedication is impractical and in
lieu fees are assessed. Based on a standard of five acres per 1000 population,
2.25 people per dwelling unit, and a cost of $447,008 per acre of park land, in
lieu fees of $5,028.84 per unit would be assessed for those projects where land
is not dedicated. These fees must be paid prior to recordation of the map.
11
TO: City Council - 2.
Parcel maps have been recorded for six of the resubdivisions, representing a
total increase of eight dwelling units. For the six parcel maps recorded, fees
amounting to $40,230.72 have been collected (8 new units x $5,028.84 per unit =
$40,23"0.72). In addition, fees of $70,403.76 for 14 additional units involved
in nine resubdivisions have also been paid (14 x $5,028.84 = $70,403:76) for ,a
total of $110,634.48 ($40,,230.72 + $70,403.76 = $110,634,48).. Of the total
'$140,807.52 required for all of the 19 resubdivisions with 28 new units
approved (28 x $5,028.84 = $140,807.52), fees of $30,173.04 for six dwelling
units remain to be paid before recordation of the affected parcel maps.
In accordance with Section 19.16.010 of the Municipal Code, the parcel map must
be recorded within ,three years after the approval of the map by the City, with
the potential for an, extension for an additional two years. Thus, it is
possible that fees for the remaining units may not be paid for some years, if
the maps are not recorded. However, the projects could not be occupied prior
to the recordation of a parcel map.

community parks and recreational facilities, all in accordance with the rec-
reational element of the General Plan of the City of Newport Beach. (Ord.
83 -22 § 1 (part), 1983: Initiative Ord. 1733 § 1 (part), 1977).

public interest, convenience, health, welfare and safety require that the dedi-
cation of land, or payment of fees, or both, shall not exceed a proportionate
- -
amount necessary to provide three acres of park per 1,000 persons residing
within a subdivision subject to this section, unless the amount of existing
neighborhood and community park area, as shown on the records, maps
and reports of the City as of the date of the most recent available Federal
census, exceeds three acres per 1,000 persons and, in that event, the City
may require dedication in proportion to the higher standard but, in no event,
shall the dedication standard exceed five acres per 1,000 persons. (Ord.

General Plan, and is to be located in whole or in part within the proposed
subdivision to serve the immediate and future needs of the residents of the
subdivision, the subdivider shall dedicate land for a park. The amount of
land to be dedicated shall be determined as follows:
(a) The City shall-determine the number of dwelling units per gross
acre to be constructed. The City shall determine the average number of per-
sons per dwelling unit, and, this computation. shall be based upon the average
household size for the dwelling units to be constructed, as disclosed by the
most recent available Federal or State census, unless there insubstantial evi-
dence to support a finding by the City that a different household size is
appropriate for some, or all, of the dwelling units proposed to be con-
structed;
(b) The City shall calculate the actual acreage of existing neighborhood
and community parks, as shown on the records, maps and reports of the City
as of the date of the most recent available Federal census and, using the
number of persons residing in the City as of that date, determine whether
the park area exceeds three acres per 1,000 persons. If, according to that cal-
culation, the park area is equal to, or less than, three acres per 1,000 persons,
then the dedication of land shall not exceed the amount necessary to provide
three acres of park per 1,000 persons residing within the subdivision under
consideration. If the park area is in excess of three acres per 1,000, the City
may require a dedication in proportion to the higher standard but, in no
event, shall the dedication requirements exceed five acres per 1,000 persons;
(c) The acreage per dwelling unit to be dedicated shall be computed by
multiplying the average number of persons per dwelling unit by the acres of
park area per 1,000 persons, as determined in Subsection (b), and dividing
that number by 1,000. (Ord. 83 -22 § 1 (part), 1983: Initiative Ord. 1733
§ I (part),' 1;977).
19.50.050 Formula for Fees in Lieu of Land Dedication. (a) General
Formula. If there is no park or recreational facility designated in the recrea-
tional element of the General Plan to be located, in whole or in part, within
the proposed subdivision, to serve the immediate and future needs of resi-
dents of the subdivision, or if the proposed subdivision contains 50 parcels
or less, the subdivider shall, in lieu of dedication of land, pay a fee equal to
the value of the amount of land prescribed for dedication pursuant to Sec-
tion 19.50.040; the amount to be determined in accordance with the provi-
sions of Section 19.50.070.
(b) Use of Money. The money collected hereunder shall be used only
for the purpose of developing new, or rehabilitating existing park or recrea-
tional facilities reasonably related to serving the subdivision, either by way
of the purchase ofland as necessary for park purposes or, if the City Council
determines that there is sufficient land available, for the improvement of
such land for park and recreational purposes. Any fees collected pursuant to
this ordinance shall be committed within five years after the payment of
such fees, or the issuance of building permits on one -half of the lots created

by the subdivision, whichever occurs later. If such fees are not committed,
they shall be distributed and paid to the record owners of the subdivision in
the same proportion that the size of their lot bears to the total area of all
lots within the subdivision.
(c) The interest earned on the accumulated in -lieu fees may be used for
+ the maintenance of any existing park or recreational facilities. (Ord. 83 -22
§ 1 (part), 1983: Initiative Ord. 1733 § 1 (part), 1977).
19.50.060 Criteria for Requiring Both Dedication and Fee. "In subdivi-
sions of more than 50 parcels, the subdivider shall both dedicate land and
pay a fee in lieu thereof, in accordance with the following formula:
(a) When only a portion of the land to be subdivided is proposed in the
recreational element of the General Plan as a site for a park, such portion
shall be dedicated for park purposes and a fee, computed pursuant to the
provisions of Section 19.50.070, shall be paid for the additional land that
would have been required to be dedicated pursuant to Section 19.50.040.
(b) When a major part of the park or recreational site has already been
4 acquired by the City, and only a small portion of land is needed ffom the
.. subdivision to complete the site, such remaining portion shall be dedicated
and a fee shall be paid in an amount equal to the value of the •land com-
puted pursuant to the provisions of Section 19.50.070, which otherwise
would have been required to be dedicated pursuant to Section 19.50.040;
such fee to be used for the improvement of the existing park and recrea-
tional facility, or for the improvement of other local parks and recreational
facilities in the area served by the subdivision.
(c) The funds collected pursuant to this Section shall be - committed,
and used, in accordance with the provisions of Section 19.50.050 (b) and
(c). (Ord. 83 -�,§ 1 (part), 1983: Initiative Ord. 1733 § 1 (part), 1977).
19.50.070 Amount of Fee in Lieu, of Land Dedication. Where a fee is
' required to be paid in lieu of land dedication, such fee shall be computed by
multiplying the acreage of land which would otherwise have been required to
be dedicated pursuant to Section 19.50.040, times the median fair market
value per acre, calculated on the basis of the highest and best use, of the
land in all neighborhood public parks within the City. The market value of
such land shall be adjusted periodically to reflect changes in property values.
(Ord. 83 -22 § 1 (part), 1983: Initiative Ord. 1733 § 1 (part), 1977).
19.50.080 Determination of Land or Fee. Whether the Planning Com-
mission accepts the land dedication or elects to require payment of a fee in
lieu thereof, or a combination of both, shall be determined by consideration
of the following:
(a) Usability and Feasibility. Generally, land shall be flat.
• (b) Access. Direct frontage on at least one side and not more than
three feet above or below street level.
(Newport Beach 8.83) 400-2

tive Ord. 1733 § 1 (part), 1977).
19.50.090 Credit for Private Open Space. ('a) Planned developments and
real estate developments, as defined in Sections 11003 and 11003.1,
respectively, of the Business and Professions Code, shall be eligible to receive
a credit, as determined by the City Council, against the amount of land re-
quired to be dedicated, or the amount of the fee imposed pursuant to this
Chapter, for the value of private open space within the development which is
usable for active recreational purposes.
(b) If the subdivider provides park and recreational improvements to
the dedicated land, the value of the improvements, together with any equip-
ment located thereon, shall be a credit against the payment of fees, or dedi-
cation of land, required by this Chapter.
(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, no credit shall be given for
private open space in any development. (Ord. 83 -22 § 1 (part), 1983:
Initiative Ord. 1733 § 1 (part), 1977).

SUBJECT: BOAT LAUNCHING AT 18th STREET
Item No. 10
November 23, 1987
STUDY - SESSION
ITEM NO.
Recommendation:
Retain the 18th Street boat launching location and not consider 15th Street
for relocation purposes at this time.
Background:
During the Study Session -of September 14, 1987, Councilperson Plummer requested
that this Department, in conjunction with the Marine Department, review the
possibility of relocating the existing boat launching facility at 18th Street
• to 15th Street. Several meetings have been held, including the Marine Department,
Traffic Engineering, boating groups and interested parties to gather information
and data on this matter. The listed findings are a result of these meetings
and the basis of the recommendation as presented:
Determinations:
1. The existing dock at 15th Street attracts a large amount of water traffic
that would interfere with catamarans and other sailboats being hand launched.
2. To move the dock to 18th Street would be expensive and would require
engineering to determine feasibility.
.0
3. 15th Street at the bay is a street end which would require cars bringing
trailered boats to back out which would result in an impossible traffic
condition.
4. ,15th Street is a heavily trafficed access area to the American Legion
location which would be compounded by adding boat /trailer traffic.
5. The existing 18th Street boat launching area has the capability of trailered
boats being launched without the car or truck and trailer'having to back out.
6. With the DeAnza public boat launching facility to be provided in the near
future, it is felt that the congestion being felt on the peninsula will
be relieved.

SUBJECT: PROPOSED BOAT LAUNCHING FACILITY
The proposed boat launching facility located southeast of
the Pacific Coast Highway bridge between the 'Reuben E. Lee
Restaurant and the bridge is scheduled to be presented to
the State Boating and Waterways Commission in January.
The Public Works - Department recently. retained..an engineering
consultant to assist in fine tuning the site plan that is
enclosed in the feasiblity report that was submitted to
the state.,. dated May 7, 1986..
The City is now preparing a Draft Lease in conjunction with
DeAnza and the Irvine Company. It is hoped that this
material will be complete sometime in the latter part of
November of this year for submittal to the State. The
current thinking is that the launch ramp will be two lanes
with approximately 50 vehicle and trailer parking stalls.
The State has preliminarily bud4eted'$685,000 as Grant
Funds for this project.

The City, the Harbor, and Its Environs
The City of Newport Beach is located on the coast of the Pacific Ocean
approximately 45 miles southeast of Los Angeles and 90 miles northwest
of San Diego. The City is nestled within the County of Orange and
surrounded by the coastal communities of Huntington Beach on the west
and Laguna Beach on the east (separated by approximately seven miles
of unincorporated coastline); on the northwest by Costa Mesa; on the
north and east by Santa Ana, Irvine, and additional unincorporated
County areas; and on the south by the Pacific Ocean.
. The year -round City population of 67,125 persons live and recreate
within an incorporated area of 35.97 square miles. The State lands
granted to the City include over 6.1 miles of public ocean front and
approximately 25.4 miles of harbor bay frontage entirely surrounding
the 1.9 square miles of Newport Harbor (which includes both Upper or
"Back" and Lower Newport Bay).
Newport Beach, distinctly "marine" in its character and atmosphere,
has become a world - famous recreational area. In addition to its
scenic ocean beaches, Newport Bay is one of the greatest natural yacht
harbors in the world; accommodating in excess of 9,000, registered
vessels berthed at over 1,230 residential piers, 2,219 commercial
slips and side ties, and 1,221 bay moorings. The harbor is the focus
• for a maritime experience not only for the City's residents, but also
for the surrounding communities within Orange County (with a total
all,
Page 2.
May 22, 1986
is
1980 estimated
population
of 1,932,709 people), and most
certainly the
inhabitants of
Riverside
and San Bernardino Counties.
In addition,
Newport Harbor functions as an access point to the bay and ocean, to
boaters of all varieties from outside the area. The harbor is greatly
utilized by boating enthusiasts, both-as a place to stop in transit to
other locations and as a destination point. There are over 15 water-
front restaurants and numerous viewing sites for the passive marine
recreator. For the active marine participant, there are at least 8
identified yacht or bay clubs, and numerous boat charter /sailing clubs
and sport fishing centers. The City continues to be a major employ-
ment base for nautical commercial and industrial activities. Not only
is it a center for marine design and construction, but also for sales
and repair. At last count, there remains at least 11 functioning
• boatyards.
Due to the temperate climate enjoyed by all of Southern California,
the recreation "season" is actually year- round. However, on particu-
larly warm winter and spring weekends, and during the summertime (June
through September), visitors average between 20;,000 to 100,000 per
day.
General Access
Access to Newport Beach is primarily via California State Highway 1
(Pacific Coast Highway) and Interstate Highways 5 (Santa Ana Freeway)
and 405 (San Diego Freeway), all of which run in a northwest- southeast
• direction. These major arterials carry traffic between southern
Orange County (and San Diego beyond) to the southeast and Long Beach
32,
Page 3.
May 22, 1986
40 and Los Angeles to the northwest. Highway 1 runs directly through the
City of Newport Beach (contiguous to the subject parcel) and secondary
access from Highways 5 and 405 is via State Highways 39 (Beach Boule-
vard) from the north, 73 (MacArthur Boulevard) from the south, and 55
(Newport Freeway /Newport Boulevard) from the northeast. This last
freeway is also the major arterial for all users originating in
Riverside and San Bernardino counties.
Access to Newport Harbor itself is, unfortunately, currently limited
and often difficult for boaters who must transport 'their vessel to the
bay for launching. Municipal ordinance guarantees public access to
the harbor over street -ends. However, this opportunity is limited to
boats that are transportable by hand carriage. In the Lower Bay,
• there are approximately 46 street -ends at which these small boats may
be launched. Besides the private yacht and bay clubs and the
boat - repair yards (both of which offer little or no opportunity for
the general public to gain aquatic access) , there are only three
additional locations to launch vessels. The Newport Dunes Aquatic
Park, located northeast of the Pacific Coast Highway Bridge is a
privately owned marine center with a boat launch ramp open for public
usage. At "N" Street and Bay, there is a paved boat launching ramp;
however, it is maintained and. operated solely for the use of the
Peninsula Point Community Association members. The remaining location
is at 18th Street and Bay. It has an adjacent metered parking area
for vehicles and trailers, but the "launching" facility consists of a
broad stretch of bay beach, approximately 50 yards from the paved
• parking lot to the harbor, across which vessels must be lifted or

• dragged. No vehicles, other than emergency vehicles, are allowed upon
the City's beaches. As a result, this site is almost exclusively
employed by catamarans, windsurfers, and human - powered craft
(outrigger canoes, kayaks, canoes, surf skis, etc.).
Access is even more restricted in the Upper-Newport Bay area. It is
controlled due to the highly sensitive nature of the ecological
reserve, with access limited to several beaches and the aforementioned
Newport Dunes Aquatic Park. The entire reach of the "Back" Bay is
currently undergoing a dredge and removal operation to restore the
Upper Bay to its 1920 character.
• The Project Site
on September 27, 1981, CalTrans completed the realignment and con-
struction of the Newport Bay Pacific Coast Highway Bridge. This
realignment north (approximately 250 yards up from the previous
bridge's location, forced the closure of the much used, privately
operated De Anza Boat Storage and Launching Ramp which was located on
the inland (north) side of the old bridge, and at the same time,
created a new, vacant .87 -acre ,(approximately) parcel south of the new
bridge. in discussions held between the City's staff, the Irvine
Company (property owner /lessor) , and De Anza Newport Mobile Home
Estates (parcel /lessee) regarding alignment of the new bridge, it was
understood and agreed that a new boat launching ramp facility would be
• developed upon the vacated "east" parcel south of the new bridge to
q
Page 5.
May 22, 1986
• replace the facility eliminated by the realignment. The design of the
new bridge allows for under - the - bridge circulation from the De Anza
leasehold area north of the bridge. The new facility would also have
the advantage of being on the ocean side of the bridge and therefore
more attractive to sailboats and the larger trailerable power boats.
The Recreation and Open Space Element of the City's General Plan
designates the parcel in question for "Open Space" with recreational
usage. A goal of this element is to enhance the "recreation and open
space system to meet both the active and passive recreation needs ...
and to " ... maintain the unique recreational and environmental
resources of the City of Newport Beach." A "needs" analysis indicates
a demand for public aquatic facilities including public boat launching
• to satisfy this identified need and established goal, the element
has established a program to "develop a boat launching facility at
Coast Highway / Bayside Drive.... " "Access is proposed via Bayside
Drive, under the bridge from the north." (The .87 vacated site.)
Furthermore, the Land Use Element /Plan of the General Plan, as well as
the Local Coastal Program Development Policies and Land Use Plan,
designate the parcel for "Recreational and Marine Commercial" usage.
The Local Coastal Program, Land Use Plan, the overriding document for
land use planning and development in the coastal zone for the City of
Newport Beach (certified by the State of California May 19, 1982),
specifically addressed the "east" parcel, south of the new Pacific
Coast Highway Bridge as follows: " ... the area vacated upon com-
pletion of the Newport Bay Bridge shall be utilized for a boat launch-
ing facility ....
350'�
Page 6.
May 22,, 1986
• The site is part of a larger parcel owned by The Irvine Company, but
on a long -term lease to De Anza Newport Mobile Home Estates (a subsid-
iary of the De Anza Corporation). However, because of the City's
interest in re- establishing a public, trailerable boat launching
facility upon the site, De Anza Newport Mobile Home Estates is willing
to give their leasehold interests for the purpose of said facility
back to the City for a fee of $1.00 per year. It has been further
agreed that the City of Newport Beach will construct, operate, main-
tain, and manage the launching facility for the term of the sub- lease.
The site consists of a relatively level, trapezoidal- shaped, approxi-
mate .87 acre area, it is on the eastern side of the convergence of
the upper and lower sections of Newport Bay. The leasehold area is
• bounded on the north by the northern side of the Newport Bay- Pacific
Coast Highway Bridge; on the south and east by a paved parking area
and the Rueben E. Lee Restaurant; further east the Pacific Coast
Highway; and on the west by Newport Harbor. Directly north of the
site's boundary are the remains of the previous ramp facility, and
beyond, an area the De Anza Corporation proposes for further "Recre-
ational and Marine Commercial" and related uses and an expanded marina
facility.
The project would be designed to accommodate trailerable vessels with
automobile access to the launching facility to be provided by a short
access road linking the facility with the Pacific Coast Highway via
• Bayside Drive underneath the Newport Bay - Pacific Coast Highway Bridge.
The streets are paved, well maintained and offer safe and convenient
12

• access to the project site. It is proposed that the site will be
L J
improved with restroom and shower facilities, a toll booth, a
three -lane boat launching ramp (minimally 15 -feet per lane) with
rigging and tie -off float structures on either side of the ramp, some
operational storage area, a bulkhead, and /or rock revetment with
public easement, as well as a vessel wash /lawn area, and vehicle and
trailer stalls for approximately 50 vehicles and boat trailers. It is
possible that additional off -site parking adjacent to the facility
will be available from the proposed De Anza marina center on weekends
and holidays when its requirements for parking is at a minimum and the
launching facility is at its peak. Little landscaping and irrigation
will be required.
Wind and Water Conditions
The launching area is approximately 45 -feet in width and directly
adjacent to the Newport Bay- Pacific Coast Highway Bridge. It is well
protected from wind and storm waves and should not be subjected to
waves in excess of 1 foot in height. Normal tide ranges are 0.0 to
+5.5 mllw with extremes occasionally reaching -1.0 and +7.5. Prevail-
ing winds are out of the north - northwest, typically 5 to 15 miles per
hour with occasional shifts to the south and northeast. Storms will
only very occasionally bring winds wind's up to 30 miles per hour at
the site. However, the site is extremely sheltered by the mainland
• directly across the bay, the bridge and its approaching embankment to
the north, and other commercial and residential development to the

RECREATION DIVISION
NOVEMBER, 1987 PROGRESS REPORT
Special Interest Activities
The Back Bay 8K attracted 280 runners on November 8 which was considerably less
than the 1986 Run. Next year's event will be scheduled in October which will
avoid conflicts with other local races. The Holiday Arts and Crafts Fair
scheduled November 14 -15 at Mariners Park attracted approximately 1,500 people.
over the two days. The event also involved local Boy and Girl Scout Troops who
provided refreshments and assisted exhibitors with daily set up /removal. Fall
classes are winding down with most programs already concluded, excepting fitness
classes which will end by December 15. Although the rainy weather has caused
scheduling problems, some fall tennis classes have been rescheduled into December.
Participants have commented favorably regarding recent improvements to practice
backboards provided by the GeneralZServices,Department.
Youth Activities
Flat football competition concluded November 24. Three teams will participate
in the Orange County Tournament December 2 -4 at Grant Howald Park and the Lincoln
Athletic Facility. Basketball registration will begin immediately following the
conclusion of tournament play. The "Winter-.,Wonderland" holiday activity scheduled
at Via Lido Plaza on Saturday, December 19, from 1 -4 P.M. will feature a new
activity, Snowmen Building Contests. Six tons of snow in the form.of shaved ice
• will be delivered to a designated section of the Hughes Market Parking Lot. The
Department will also conduct arts,and crafts activities, tree decorating and Santa
visits. The Via Lido Merchants Association is paying the cost of the snow and
naming the City as additional insured on their general liability policy.
Sports and'.Aquatics
Fall adult softball league play has been impacted by rainy weather, causing competition
to continue through mid - December'. The adult basketball program will conclude
December 2. Registration packets for the winter competition were mailed the week
of November 16. Reigstration will conclude December 11 for basketball and January 22
for softball. As a means of encouraging additional tournament play, a new
scheduling format will eliminate practice games and conclude league schedules
with a single elimination round robin tournament. The Department's decision to
implement this change is based on the overwhelming support of team managers. The
1988 Tournament of Roses Parade has 21 remaining tickets. A total of 110 tickets
have been sold to the Department's most popular excursion.
Seniors
The November 14 Health Fair attracted 500 seniors who took advantage of a variety
of health screenings ranging from blood pressure to podiatry. Other successful
continuing programs include Defensive Driving Instruction, Senior Fitness
and Arts /Crafts classes. On November 6 the General' Membership meeting included
a film on the construction of the St. Louis Arch and a performance of the
Corona del Mar High School Choir. On November 20 a Medicare Forum attracted 69
Is seniors who received information updating current regulations. The Oasis schedule
for December is attached.

TO: CHAIRMAN, PARKS, BEACHES, AND RECREATION COMMISSION
FROM: General Services Director
SUBJECT: BEACH VOLLEYBALL COURTS
After reviewing the proposed resolution concerning the courts and the
Recreation Superintendent's attached letter, I request again that all
beachfront courts (nets) be set up parallel to the ocean. At present,
the nets at the Corona del Mar main beach are parallel to the ocean
and greatly facilitate beach cleaning by the large, unwieldy tractors
and beach cleaners of General Services. The other oceanfront courts
are not and continually hamper beach cleaning operations, particularly
when nets and boundary ropes are not removed nightly. Since your
Commission faulted the General Services Department before the Council
on beach maintenance at the November 23 joint session, I am sure you
will find my request timely and appropriate.

CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH
Parks, Beaches and Recreation Department
DATE: November 23, 1987
TO: Dave Niederhaus, General Services Director
FROM: Mark Deven, Recreation Superintendent
SUBJECT: Proposed Resolution, Beach Volleyball Courts
In response to -your concerns stated in our telephone conversation of
November 20, 1987, the Parks, Beaches and' Recreation Commission had
considered altering the placement of beach volleyball courts from
perpendicular to parallel. 'During consideration of the regulations
by the Commiss.ion's Beach and Oceanfront Committee, your concerns
regarding beachfront maintenance were repeated at a committee meeting.
My personal message to the committee was that the-General Services
Director believed that thorough maintenance of the beachfront was
impacted by the perpendicular installation of volleyball nets.
Bill Bennet, a beachfront resident, volleyball player and coincidentally
a captain in our Fire Department,'was invited by the Commission, to
attend the committee meeting. Mr. Bennet indicated that playing conditions
are not favorable to volleyball players due to the wind and sun.
Mr. Bennet also indicated that daily removal -of nets and playing lines
is impractical because no one is sure when the court will cease being
used. Frequently, the person that installs nets and'playing lines at
8:30 a.m. is not present by the time the court is vacated at sunset.
Additional reasons supporting perpendicular installation concern
potential impacts on beachfront residents. Parallel volleyball nets are
more visible to views. Although most nets are on street ends, many are
in direct-line with residences. Such homes would also be affected by
potential noise and other nuisances. Some beachfront homes are narrow
between the homes and the water; thus,, courts would be located in close
proximity to private residences.
Therefore, the Beach and Oceanfront Committee's recommendation with
regards to the installation is justified based on the fact that beach
maintenance would be improved minimally due to the continued practice
of leaving volleyball lines down overnight. In addition, changing
installation from perpendicular to parallel would not be supported by
volleyball players or residents due to the reasons previously stated.
The attached resolution will be placed on the City Council Agenda
for December 14, 1987.

FROM: JOHN KONWISER
RE: UPDATE ON PARK IMPROVEMENTS AS LISTED BELOW
DATE: November 30, 1987
CARROLL BEEK COMMUNITY CENTER:
1. The planter is bare on either side of the entrance and could use approxi-
mately eight to ten 5- gallon Raphiolaps.is to blend with the existing.
2. The Ficus down the side of the building adjacent to the alley could be
extended another six to eight feet and five or six additional plants to fill
in the planter between the back of the building and the alley.
3. On the side of the building facing a tot lot, four or five more Ficus plants
would break arge dirt area.
4. There ar 0it planted in a row in front of the basketball court in
approxim of length. The trees are competing with each other
and I bed be beneficial for the overall t and t he r main -
ing freecenter ones were removed. C\ 24fta
5r1 There's an electrical outlet box at the corner of the walkway where it meets
the basketball court which is in tough shape and should be repaired to pre-
vent an electrical accident. Everything else at this relatively new park
appears in excellent condition.
LIDO PARK:
1. The highly visible sign at this park is really in tou h�iape. However, it
can be easily rectified by a good sanding and a co of stai I don't
believe it is necessary to install a new sign at th' ion, but perhaps
the City emblem could be placed on top or below the words "Lido Park ".
2. The well located bench needs to be raised and leveled in order to be at all
comfortable. A few palm leaves behind the bench need to be trimmed back.
3. I am assuming the slope down from the sidewalk and in front of the ten story
condominium is not maintained by the City. It is in terrible shape consis-
ting of dying African Daisies, weeds, and Agapanthus which need trimming
• badly so if it is our responsibility, a little bit of attention would go a
long way here.
• LIDO PARK, continued —
4. The barricades blocking entrance to the area where the bu head is badly ha
badly slipped out into the channel were laying on their s' e_one -a-lm in
the water. I stood them up, but undoubtedly Public Works or General
Services, whoever may be responsible, should install a more permanent' barri-
cade in front of this most dangerous area. Assuming the bulkhead will be
repaired, there is no sense in planting ground cover at the top of the park
just as the bridge begins where the area is now plain dirt. If the bulk-
head is to remain in its present condition for any length-of time, a bit
of ground cover would go a long way here. On the turning basin side of the
park, a bit of ground cover would help between the fence and the bulkhead
where volunteer grass is now growing.
5. On the turning basin side the chain link fence needs to be strapped to the
last post in line. None of these items require a great deal of effort, so
that with minimum time this pleasant area would look very sharp.
LOS ARENAS PARK:
1. A small bare spot in the lawn could be improved out from the entrance to the
west tennis court.
2. There's a bit of trash to pick; up that looks like it's been there quite a
while outside the northwest corner of the west tennis court.
• 3. The basketball net needs to be replaced. My experience is chain nets last
indefinitely longer than cloth nets.
The heptagonal shaped planter in front east of 16th Street needs to be re-
planted.
5. There is some volunteer grass which if removed, would,make the large sand
area to the west of the walk leading to the sailing base more attractive.
Again, all of these are minor items requiring little effort to polish up

PENINSULA PARK: / A-IcKS pot —
1. It would be great to plant some shrubber r and the SMR valve, not because
it is dangerous, but because thre w 1 e plastic pipe is stri ingly visible
and not all that attractive.
2. The gazebo could use a fresh coat of paint. I'm certain this is a perpetual
project, but if the wrought iron is not painted at least the kickboard base
and posts could be painted.
3. A rather minor item is the west soccer goal post leans quite a bit, and'the
east one leans one direction on one side and another direction on the other
side. It's possible I may be the only one whoever notices!

6. t was great to ee the flag flying from the pole at the circle at the head
of Main Street. There appears to be no irrigation to the planter area
around the fla pole, but I think to handwater about fifteen five gallon
Paracanthus woil'd be well worth the effort rather than maintain the area as
bare dirt. If tthe Paracanthus were planted and established in the immediate
future, I feel certain they would withstand the heavy traffic common to this
area in the su er months.
WEST JETTY VIEW PARK:
1. As we know, this park is being re- constructed. Nevertheless, I feel com-
pelled to offer a very tardy and undoubtedly ver opinion that
more of an attempt should have b en—mad open up this d amatic viewpoint
to the public. Specifically, I hi six parking places p rpendicular to
Channel Road should have been in talled eac wi we minute parking
meter and highly visible signage that parking is restricted to twenty minutes
for each car so as to insure turnover, but yet give the occupants an oppor-
tunity to enjoy the view.
