Item 2 - Communications Communicatii Director Niederhaus reported he discussed the requested Newport Elementary School playground restoration with the Planning, Public Works, Building and Marine Departments to determine their requirements, which are provided in his letter to Mr. Bill Knight dated March 17, 1994. Due to budget constraints and lack of City resources, the Department can no longer provide labor and equipment for specialized construction projects. He recommends they scale down their plan to rehabilitate the surface and refurbish the sprinkler system. • Staff could provide the technical assistance in this endeavor, however, no labor and equipment would be available. In response to a question from Commissioner Compton, Director Niederhaus explained that a cost analysis could be determined, and if the School District and PTA funded the project, it is a good possibility some type of solution could be worked out. Such a cost analysis of City assistance would include hauling and disposal, equipment, labor and technical assistance. Bill Knight, Principal of Newport Elementary School, addressed the Commission and thanked them for their consideration of this matter. Mr. Knight stated the field is hazardous due to pot holes, etc. The PTA, Student Council and staff all agree the field needs to be refurbished for the children and the community. The PTA and Student Council have raised $10,000 through fund raisers. The School District has allocated $8,000 plus District personnel to install the sprinkler system. They are requesting the City provide grading, hauling and disposal, and sodding. • Director Niederhaus explained that this is a substantial amount of work requested in that the site would have to be graded, the sprinkler system marked and the spoils hauled to a landfill in Irvine for $30 /ton. In addition, no major excavation can be done without Coastal Commission approval.

History In October, 1992, staff was directed to contract with Ms. Ann • Christoph, a landscape architect, relative to the replanting design of the Cliff Drive slope. The landscape architect recommended to staff the planting of California native plants on the slope area. The area was treated for weeds and irrigation modifications completed prior to planting and hydroseeding in August of 1993. This work was completed contractually for $25,200, plus the landscape architect consultant fees of $3,830. Subsequently, during the late summer and early fall of 1993, very little desirable seed germinated. In early winter, an abundance of weeds sprouted and concerns were made by staff relative to the direction of the project. In January of this year, Ann Christoph, was contacted for recommendations on how to proceed at the site. Ms. Christoph recommended hand weeding with some selective herbicide treatment. She also recommended spot reseeding and the installation of container plants to fill vacant areas on the slope. Staff proceeded to weed the slope and selectively spray herbicides during the past several months per her recommendations. The current levels of expenditures for this weed eradication process has totaled $4833. Current Status The slope has been weeded, but with spring rains additional 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach germination of non desirable seed has occurred. The existing • shrubs, that were planted, from containers, have established themselves yet lack effective coverage since a majority of the slope that was seeded is again overcome by weeds. The cost of replanting the slope with California natives would cost approximately $4,000. This price includes labor and materials. The materials would consist of one gallon materials with no seeding. But, the potential for overgrowth by weeds again would still exist without extensive, labor intensive weeding. At this point it has become clear that we can no longer economically maintain the park slopes with a pure California native mix of plants. This type vegetation can not grow well or quick enough to control weed growth. Recommendations a. That staff proceed with the replanting of bare areas with container plant materials to reduce weeding and accelerate plant establishment on this slope. b. That the majority of plants be of ornamental,, drought tolerant, fast establishing, and predominantly non - California native. Examples of this include Myoporum, Acacia, Bougainvillea, and Ceanothus species. Also with containerized planting, pre- emergent herbicides could be used to reduce weed growth. The cost of this • new planting would be approximately $4,000 labor and materials. The cost of ongoing maintenance would be reduced by going to a ornamental shrub planting rather than the California native mix. C. That funding for this expenditure be expended from the Park Improvement Funds. Very respectfully, David E.

RECREATION AND OPEN SPACE ELEMENT OF THE GENERAL PLAN Recommendation The Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission recommend to the City Council that the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan be formally revised. Back rg ound • The Goals and Objectives of the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission, revised April 5, 1994, indicate a need to review the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan. As you are aware, the current Element was adopted in February, 1985, but was developed in 1984 and in some cases represents data from previous years. Recent developments make it very important that there be a. current Element. 1. The new Park Dedication Policy links all use of in- lieu fees to parks /open space designated in the Element. 2. There is potential in the future for considerable in -lieu fees to be collected from development of the Loral site. The City and The Irvine Company are beginning an implementation program of the Circulation Improvement and Open Space Agreement (CIOSA). See City Council Item No. 4, April 25, 1994. You will notice in the tentative schedule that the first building permits for Upper Castaways and Newporter North could be a obtained as early as Fall, 1995, the action which triggers 1 ` . dedications of some of the parcels. See Exhibit `B" from the Agreement. 4. The development of Bolsa Park, which the City Council has directed be pursued, requires an Amendment to the Element to facilitate the use of in -lieu fees. 5. There have also been other generalized requests for the use of in -lieu funds which make it important that a complete plan is in place, rather than piecemeal amendments. The development of the Element is a Planning Department responsibility. We have indicated to Planning that the Community Services Department could assist in this process by preparing the data for the Technical Supplement, which precedes'the Plan. Attachments 1.

Background • In June of 1993, the California Coastal Commission gave final approval to the Circulation Improvement and Open Space Agreement ( CIOSA). The agreement was then executed and recorded. In November of 1993, the voters of the City of Newport Beach rejected proposed Measure A, which would have provided funds to purchase two sites subject to the CIOSA Agreement, Upper Castaways and Newporter North. In December of 1993, the City Council formed an Ad Hoc Committee to develop an implementation strategy for the CIOSA Agreement. The Committee, with the support of City staff, has met with representatives of The Irvine Company for the past four months, during which a concept for implementation has been developed. Discussion The public benefits of the CIOSA Agreement come from the open space to be dedicated as development proceeds and the circulation system funding program set forth in the agreement. The Agreement sets forth in detail the sequence of open space dedication. This implementation program primarily addresses the financing of the circulation system funding program. The Irvine Company anticipates that four of the approved residential development projects will proceed within the next two years. These are Upper Castaways, Newporter North, San Diego Creek South and Bayview Landing. These developments will allow for the dedication of significant park and open space areas on these sites. The Irvine Company has also indicated that • they will consider early access to or dedication of certain park sites, as well as early access to funds needed by the City for the MacArthur Boulevard project. Mrs TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council - 2. The discussion of the Committee took place with the knowledge that the ability of developers to finance infrastructure obligations has changed in recent years. It is now very difficult to finance through conventional methods any pre - development costs. It is therefore the position of The Irvine Company that the early fair share and cash advance obligations can only be financed through other methods. After exploring the available options, it was determined that the formation of a CIOSA Implementation District would be the best available financing mechanism for the circulation system funding obligations required by the agreement. This district would have characteristics which are similar to a Community Facilities District. The formation of such a district was contemplated in the CIOSA Agreement. Under this proposal, The Irvine Company will commit to form the District which will cover the remaining eight undeveloped sites which are subject to the CIOSA Agreement. The district would issue bonds as each development proceeds, providing the circulation funding levels anticipated in the agreement. The-advantages to -this approach are: 1. The bond obligation will be paid by persons who, "buy into' the district. No costs will accrue to existing taxpayers. 2. The sale of bonds can be phased to allow the City to achieve the greatest amount of leverage • for outside road funding. 3. The district is not an assessment district which requires an annual hearing by the City Council. 4. The bonds may be prepaid on homeowners request. Attached to this report is a letter from The Irvine Company regarding the implementation of the CIOSA Agreement, an outline of the CIOSA District parameters prepared by TIC, and a draft circulation improvement construction priority matrix prepared by the Public Works Department.

Box 1768 Newport Beach, California 92658 -8915 Subject: Implementation of the Circulation Improvement and Open Space Agreement between the City of Newport Beach and The Irvine Company Dear Mayor and Council Members: As you are aware, The Irvine Company has had discussions with your Ad Hoc Committee and city staff during the past several months regarding the implementation of the Circulation Improvement and Open Space Agreement ,( CIOSA). We believe these discussions have been • productive and that the formation of a financing district is the best way to assure the implementation in a timely and orderly fashion. The Circulation Improvement and Open Space Agreement, which has been approved by the City Council and California Coastal Commission, is a mutually beneficial Agreement which was the product of more than three years of planning and consensus building with the community. Ultimately, it will produce more than $20 million to significantly improve traffic circulation in Newport Beach, and will result in the donation of 152 acres of open space land for parks, natural areas and public facilities. This will be financed by new development, not the existing taxpayers of Newport Beach. Consistent with the provisions of the CIOSA Agreement, the parties agreed to hold the Measure "A" election. As a result, we believe the community has had the opportunity to thoroughly debate and decide the merits of this Agreement. And, it is evident that the majority of the community believes we have a good plan that provides important open space and road improvements, and it should be implemented. We are now prepared to proceed forward with the development of some of our properties and the implementation of our Agreement. A financing district, as contemplated in the CIOSA Agreement and recommended by your Committee will serve as a viable funding mechanism to meet the City's road improvement goals as we develop our properties. We agree that the district will involve Dnly our development properties. The district will issue bonds with the actual . development of each site. 550 Newport Center Drive, Suite 700, P.O.

The Irvine Company anticipates the first four development projects will include Upper Castaways, Newporter North,, San Diego Creek South and an affordable senior housing program at Lower Bayview Landing. We currently estimate these projects will be under construction in approximately two years, and will finance several of the City's highest priority road improvements, among them MacArthur Boulevard. Also, approximately 100 acres of public open space land, including sites for two view parks and an active park at Upper Castaways will be transferred to City ownership. We look forward to continuing to work with the City toward the implementation of our Agreement.

GOAL: The goal of CIOSA Implementation District is to establish the funding program for the financial commitments outlined in the CIOSA agreement. The program is in compliance with the Development Agreement and will be structured to allow the City to derive the road funding benefits of the Agreement in a timely manner with the development of The Irvine Company's properties. 2. OVERVIEW: As contemplated in CIOSA, The Irvine Company will commit to formation of a CIOSA Implementation District covering its properties outlined in the Agreement, providing for the funding of $20.3 million in improvements. Concurrent with the District formation process, The Irvine Company will proceed with the planning and approval of specific plans for several properties, preparing them for construction after the formal adoption IV' of the District. • Properties to be included in the District formation: • Upper Castaways • Newporter North • San Diego Creek South • Freeway Reservation North • Block 800 • Corporate Plaza West • Newport Village will also be included in the CIOSA District to fund certain project specific improvements. • Bayview Landing will be included for Fair Share Fees (only) if developed for Seniors Affordable Housing. • District will satisfy financial obligations of CIOSA. • District bond issues and the timing of improvements to be phased with actual development of each site and' City needs. • �-) 6 CIOSA COMMITMENTS: TOTAL CIOSA COMMITMENTS Less MacArthur Blvd. Improvements $21.1 Million Anticipated to be Constructed by TCA ( .5 million) Less MacArthur Frontage Improvements and Fair Share Fees Funded by Freeway Reservation South ( .3 million) CIOSA COMMITMENT TO BE FINANCED 20.3 Million Payment of Fair Share Fees $ 1.5 million (estimated) Project Frontage Improvements $ 4.5 million Items Constituting "Loan" IL4.3 million (estimated) COMMITMENTS TO BE FINANCED 1213 million • "Loan" amount will be converted to list of improvements to be eligible for District funding. • "Loan" will fund improvements on City priority list.

The City Attorney is currently working, on -the street dedication process. Staff will be notifying and meeting with the adjacent property owners regarding the park plans within the next week.

As a result, Commissioner Taft recommended the courts be reviewed after proper notification. Motion Commissioner Konwiser motioned to table the Ayes x x x x x x volleyball court relocations to the December 4, 1990 meeting. Unanimous. Commissioner Taft reported bids are being received on wooden, aluminum treated and metal volleyball poles. After a cost and longevity analysis, a standardized pole for replacement can be determined. Chair Grant suggested first using a sample or • trial test of the proposed poles. Commissioner Taft concurred. Item #16 - Bolsa Avenue Park Proposal Bolsa Avenue Director Whitley y reported the subject request has ark'Proposal- been modified from the one presented to the Commission two years ago when property on Bolsa Avenue was for sale. At that time it was too expensive and the project was not pursued. Director Whitley reviewed the proposed mini park which staff supports since this-area is very park deficient. Public Works has also reversed their opinion from two years ago since closing Bolsa Avenue will have no impact on traffic. Although i it is a small area, there would be enough space for playground equipment, a couple of benches, trees and shrubs. In addition, there are many children in the area along with great community support. There has also been a lot of development in the area, thereby generating sufficient money in in -lieu park fees along with no acquisition costs. 'Should the Commission agree to the proposed mini park, it will need to be placed on the capital improvement list. The request will also be on the City Council's November 13 agenda. In response to a question from Commissioner Konwiser on the cost of removing the present CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH arks, Beaches & Recreation Commission November 6,•1990• Page 8 City Council Chambers 7 p.m. INDEX improvements, Director Whitley advised Public Works has reported this is no problem. Chair Grant expressed his concern over setting a precedent and Director Whitley advised the City would continue to have control since this is a road right of way. Commisioner Demmer commented that this area has been downgraded and is now becoming a nice residential area. She noted that parkways and ' parkway trees are not being implemented into the renovation of this area. Young families are moving into permanent family residential dwellings. A play area with grass, trees., benches, etc., would be very appropriate for this area. She also made note that if Newport Heights • is to acquire open space and park facilities for future growth, it would have to be "pocket a park" as there is no more available land. Commissioner Herberts agreed this is a good opportunity to beautify the area and that it would also be valuable to the nearby children. Motion x Commissioner Herberts moved to accept the mini park idea and recommended to the City Council that it be pursued; and that this motion is made on the premise that a tot lot be incorporated; the parcel is received in a. ready to build condition from the Public Works Department; and that the site is accepted due to the unique Ayes x x x x x x x circumstance that the proposed park is free land. Unanimous. Commissioner Vandervort stated she felt pocket parks are a good idea provided they have a Purpose, such as a tot lot, etc. Item 417 - Develop Agenda for Joint Meeting with Develop Agendi City Council - for Joint Meeting with Director Whitley reported he met with Chair Grant City Council • i and they agreed that the City Council should be aware and receive the Commission's Goals and Objectives. Chair Grant recommended the Council also receive CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH Parks, y m�a O Beaches A Recreation Commission Page 2 Citv Council Chambers 7 D.m.

Mr. Murphy gave a brief background of his education and work in public service and said he hopes to be a resident of the City very soon. Item 46 - Approval of Preliminary Plan for Bolsa pproval of Ave. Mini Park reliminary Director Whitley reported that the subject park Ian for olsa Ave. was on the Commission's agenda two months ago and iii! Park that the surrounding neighbors urged the park project be started. As a result, Public Works hired a consultant, Mr. Robert Pedersen, to prepare a preliminary plan which is now before the Commission for approval. Mr. Pedersen has been responsible for numerous parks in Orange County, including Mile Square Park in Fountain Valley. Mr. Robert Pedersen addressed the Commission and Pointed out that this is a small lot of approximately 6o' x 1201. Although his main concern is its small size which cannot accommodate basketball courts, shuffleboard, etc., the park will be ideal for people to walk to or from the nearby commercial areas and for families to enjoy. Referring to the preliminary plan, Mr. Pedersen explained the terrain, drainage and locations of the retaining and planter walls, tot lot, play area and ramp access for the handicapped, the latter of which is now required by the ADA. The park was designed with information from staff and representatives from the neighborhood. In response to a question from Commissioner Grant, Director Whitley explained the proposed BBQ area could be used by local families. Should • this become a problem; they can be removed and relocated where they are needed. Commissioner Grant recommended adding a shade structure over the picnic tables, and both Director Whitley and Mr. Pedersen commented that this could easily be done. 1 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH arks, Beaches & Recreation Commission Page 3 City Council Chambers 7 p.m. INDEX In response to a question from Commissioner Demmer, Mr. Pedersen explained the location of the 10' post lights and that those closest to the residents will be shielded. In response to a question from Commissioner Compton concerning the proposed construction on the north end, Mr. Pedersen stated that if the park were built now, there would'be a 6' wall constructed adjacent to the north side. If the park were delayed, the commercial property owner would construct a retaining wall at this location. Commissioner Demmer questioned if the Specific Area Plan, which includes this park location, should be completed first before the park is 0 constructed. Director Whitley advised that the Commission can still approve the plan and then wait for further direction. Chair Vandervort opened the meeting to Public Hearing. Mr. Roger Schwenk, 238 Tustin Avenue, who owns a business at 477 old Newport Boulevard, addressed the Commission. Mr. Schwenk stated that although he is not opposed to the park, he is concerned that the commercial owners were not polled for their input as were the residents. Mr. Neal Dofezmier, 3247 Broad Street. addressed the Commission. Mr. Dofezmier thanked the Commission for moving swiftly forward on the park and felt the proposed plan is a good one. He stated the residents are in support of the park and felt the commercial owners were also. Shari Rooks, 3308 Clay Street, addressed the Commission in support of the design of the park. She felt the BBQ area is a good idea and agreed • that it could be removed if it becomes a problem. Ms. Rooks explained that the petition for the park was not passed- along to the commercial owners since the park would have more effect on .the residents. In addition, they did not CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH - arks, Beaches .& Recreation Commission Page 4 City Council Chambers 7 p.m. INDEX anticipate that the commercial owners would have any objections. Mr. Roger Schwenk, 238 Tustin Avenue, questioned why the commercial owners were not notified in the past about the proposed park. He also urged that the Specific Area Plan be considered when developing the park. Director Whitley explained that the concept was initiated through the residential petition and that notification was mailed to those on the petition. In addition, notification was posted in the area, by agenda and by the newspaper. Mr. Gregg Schwenk, 238 Tustin Avenue, addressed the Commission. He stated he saw no postings in • the area and was concerned that the commercial owners were not notified. He urged the Commission to slow the process down until possible zoning changes on Old Newport Boulevard are determined. There being no further public testimony, Chair Vandervort closed the meeting to public hearing. Notion Commissioner Grant motioned to approve the preliminary plan. He suggested factors such as lighting, the ADA requirements, the wall and shade structure be reviewed and addressed. Director Whitley advised that should the Commission approve the plan, the architect can then proceed with the specifications. No construction funds have been approved at this time. There will also be further opportunities for public input when the City Council reviews the plans and specifications. Unanimous. Item #7 - Tree Removal Appeal 1050 Santiaco Tree Removal Drive Appeal Chair Vandervort reported the subject tree is at 1050 Santiago Drive, not 1750 as presented, and that the Commission was informed of the incorrect address. Staff feels this is a good parkway tree and recommends it be retained. Item V -10 • COMMUNITY SERVICES DEPARTMENT DATE: April 27, 1994 TO: Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission FROM: Nancy Beard, Recreation Superintendent SUBJECT: COUNCIL /COMMISSION MEETING TOPIC Did you know that 5,000 individuals take part in our adult softball, basketball and volleyball leagues every year? Each of these participants wears specialized shoes and purchases athletic gear and clothing. Let's say one quarter of those people purchase athletic shoes to compete in our leagues. If a (conservative) average pair of shoes runs $30.00, that's $37,500. Add a softball glove and volleyball for that many participants, and there is another minimum of $50,000. One thousand three hundred adults and children learn to play tennis or better their skills every year through the City sponsored lesson programs. That is 1,700 tennis racquets, new tennis shoes and multitudes of tennis balls. If each of these tennis participants purchased one can of tennis balls a month, the economic impact is approximately $46,000. If half of those participants purchase a racquet at an average cost of $50, add another $32,500 to the totals. That does not begin to reach the revenues realized from clothing and shoes purchased to participate in -this program. We also know that tennis is a life sport; that is, one that is played off and on throughout a lifetime. This sport promotes a lifetime of needs. Five hundred children take gymnastics lessons each year from the City's contracted instructors. If each parent spends $50 per year on their child, they represent a minimum of $25,000. Three hundred fifty participants take part in our aerobic exercise classes. Each of them wears shoes and workout clothing. Again, a conservative estimate of the buying power represented by this group is $35,000 each year. Six hundred adults and children learn to dance each year through the City sponsored instruction. These children purchase tap and ballet - shoes. The adults who learn to ballroom or country western dance go to restaurants and clubs to dance and socialize, purchase recordings and cowboy hats! The potential for this group of consumers will easily reach $60,000. �2 , 2 . Four hundred people learn to golf each year through our lesson package. If one half of those people decide to take up golf as their sport of choice, that would represent golf club purchases (at $250 per set) equaling $50,000, not to mention the on -going costs of green fees, balls, etc. involved in this sport. We teach 200 people to surf each year. The average cost of a surf board is $150. If 50 of these participants purchase surfboards, they would represent a minimum of $7,500 in potential revenue from this program, not to mention the paraphernalia that goes along with the surfing culture. For this we add perhaps another $3,000 generated from just these 50 participants. Three hundred adults and children learn to sail and windsurf each year through out programs. Again, that is clothing, rental fees or perhaps a boat or sailboard purchases representing a conservative $25,000. At minimum these residents are taught to respect our precious natural resources. The Newport Aquatics Center teaches a thousand adults and children to canoe, kayak and row each year. Have you ever watched the bay on a sunny day and noticed how many personal water crafts are making their way throughout the Islands? This market represents thousands of dollars. An average cost of a kayak . is $800. If only 100 people fall in love with kayaking this year, they represent a minimum $80,000 in purchases. We also teach people to cook, operate computers, build their own sun deck, garden, paint, start their own business, speak Spanish (to enhance vacation opportunities), scuba dive, ice skate, rollerblade and play the piano These folks represent another $100,000 in potential purchasing power in support of what they learned through the City's instruction. Through these recreation sponsored activities alone, we have demonstrated one half million dollars purchasing power. If we were to add in the two thousand community soccer players, eighteen hundred Little League participants, the four hundred Bobby Soxers, and the hundreds of swimmers in our lesson programs and on our swim teams, I am confident we could represent another quarter of a million plus dollars. So when we are questioned as to the value of recreation in this community and we educate people on how Recreation enhances their quality of life and makes their neighborhood just a bit more livable, we also need to remind people that we :are $1,300,000 self - supporting business which brings in another $1;000,000 in purchasing power to this community. i �
