that by not feeding them they would move on to their more natural habitat. He noted
that the major problem birds are the seagulls and ducks.
The Commission asked what they could do to help. Deputy City Manager Kiff responded
that it would be most helpful to urge the City Council to revisit the issue of feeding the
birds and to find ways to better educate the public.
Commissioner Beek suggested a Volunteer Ranger program but stated that more
information is needed.
Chair Skoro opened the public hearing
Jan Vandersloot asked Deputy City Manager Kiff if he was able to tell by the testing that
was done if it was caused by animal or human.
Deputy City Manager Kiff stated that there was some tests that were able to ascertain
that information but the interpretive value is not worth the money in the long run.
Mr. Vandersloot stated that the basic question is whether bird droppings are harmful to
people; it is premature to blame the ducks.
• Chair Skoro closed the public hearing
Chair Skoro asked that this item be added to a future Rec Et Open Space Element
Committee meeting. Commissioner Beek stated that as Chair she would take care of it.

Chair Skoro closed the public hearing
Discussion ensued regarding the possibility because of the leaning of the tree for failure.
Chair Skoro stated that if the tree were in his front yard, he too would request its
removal.
Director Niederhaus noted that he has suggested private reforestation but that the
applicant is not willing to pay for its removal and replacement, but he would
recommend this to him again.
Motion by Commissioner Allen to deny the request for the removal of one Pittosporum
tree by Pamela Cromer at 1708 Newport Hills Drive West. Motion carried by
acclamation.
11. Reforestation Request - Director Niederhaus stated the reforestation request is for the
removal of one Coral tree located at on the slope behind 2901 Ebbtide and replace with
a Bronze Loquat tree at the expense of the Cambell Family. Mr. Niederhaus stated the
Homeowners Association has presented the appropriate petition and all paperwork as
required by G -1 Policy is attached to the report.
• Chair Skoro opened the public hearing
Jan Vandersloot stated that the reason reforestation does not work is because anyone
can decide that they don't like their tree and ask to reforest it, and that by approving
the request it will set a precedent.
Director Niederhaus stated again that staff have reviewed the paperwork and that it
meets the requirement of the policy.
John Orr, representing the Harbor View Hills Community Association, stated that the
request for removal of the tree was made because of the extreme disruption of
electricity to the house and the view plane and not because of any dislike for the tree.
Discussion ensued regarding the notification of Southern California Edison.
Chair Skoro closed the public hearing
Discussion ensued regarding reforestation issues, view protection, responsibility of
replacement costs by resident, etc.
Commissioner Franklin stated that he was incline to vote no, because he had voiced his
opinion on reforestation requests being at the desire of the homeowner because they
• did not like the tree.

Corona Del Mar, Ca 92625
Dear Val:
District
At the Tuesday, January 1, 2001 P.B. &R. meeting, the Corona Del Mar Business
Improvement District was allowed to present the CDM BID Vision 2004 proposed plan
of improvements, along East Coast Highway, through our business district. Ed Selich
articulated the plan details and presented full color sketch boards illustrating each
segment. For this opportunity, we are grateful and thank every member of the
Commission
Because this is such an historic and important city project, and because every
commissioner seemed rightfully impressed, we are requesting a letter of endorsement
from this organization. That letter will be included in our presentation portfolio when the
CDM BID goes before the City Council with our progress report in February.
At your next scheduled meeting, would you propose this idea to the full
Commission, call for a vote, and then return to us that letter of support? (Assuming there
is a unanimous vote)
Thank you, and your colleagues, for all your interest and support. We are
committed to producing a plan proposal that will make all citizens of Newport Beach
proud of the Business District of Corona Del Mar forever.
Sincerely,
Donald H. Glasgow, Chairman

Ref: Agenda for the Recreation Activities Committee Meeting, Tue. 1/12/01, Noon in the Central Library
Con£ Room
Dear Andrea McGuire, Sr Recreation Mgr, amcguire @city.newport- beach.ca.us:
Per your request, I am writing to you to voice my concerns about Item -3 of the Agenda for the Referenced
Meeting. I cannot attend the meeting and you therefore assured me that you would read my comments and
enter them into the minutes for presentation to the PB &R Commission at the Feb 6, 2001 meeting.
My wife and I are residents of the Canyon Crest Estates Condominium complex, which is located on
Pacific View, across the street from the Lincoln Athletic Center. We have lived there since 1982.
We object to the Little League's request for Saturday night Lincoln Field usage for the following
reasons:
1. Approximately 2 years ago, the Little League made a similar request that was elevated to the City
Council where the request was denied as a compromise to the surrounding communities. There is no
need to revisit this issue.
• 2. Saturday evening usage of the Lincoln complex creates undo stress on the surrounding communities
because it results in a greater level of lights, noise and traffic then when the field is not in use.
3. The field lights can presently be used from M -Th until l OPM and can also be used on Friday. As a
good neighbor consideration, the surrounding communities deserve a respite from this activity on
Saturday and Sunday evenings.
4. The State and the City are in the midst of a power crisis. We are being threatened with "rolling
blackouts" and large rate increases. Under these conditions, it is irresponsible for the Little League to
ask for extended lighting periods and it is irresponsible for the City to even consider the issue.
5. Given the current power crisis, we suggest that the Recreation Dept investigate means for more
efficient use and consolidation of the lighted periods and also consider eliminating lighted hours or
even entire lighted evenings in the interest of conservation.
With regard to the issue of a "funding request for the Newport Beach Little League" we request that
you send us more detail on this issue. If this request concerns the City providing funding to the Little
League, then we would have to voice our strenuous objections.
The Little League is a special interest group that should be funded and staffed solely by its participants and
independent donations. It should not be funded by the City in any part. Consider, if we fund the Little
League today, why not the AYSO, Rugby and even Churches tomorrow. I believe that there would be
legal issues raised.
We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
Robert and Karen Kopicki

OTHER INFORMATION
Recreation Services Division Mission Statement - In early summer of 2000, the Recreation
Division staff began a process to develop a mission statement for the Division. Over
several meetings, lasting until early December, staff classified expectations for the
community and staff in regards to Recreation Services. As staff explored the different ways
to serve the community, they agreed upon five areas or categories of expectations and
discussed ideas in each of those areas. The categories are Public Benefits, Quality
Customer Service, The Best Facilities Possible, Diversity in Programming and Innovative
Administration. After much fine - tuning and tweaking, the consensus was that the
Recreation Division mission statement should be:
Our mission is to enhance the quality of life in Newport Beach by providing
• diverse recreation opportunities in safe, well - maintained facilities and parks. We
strive to provide experiences that create connections between people and
community. Our purpose is to provide quality services, to efficiently utilize
resources and to respond to community needs.

Generation Z
Golden Years - What's In and Out
Patterns & Preferences
5 What's Ahead
http://www.cprs.org/MembersOnly/trendscan/tsl2OO.htm
rend trackers like this time of the year because forecasters from a variety of organizations usually
•issue their perceptions and projections of what lies ahead. This year is no exception to that practice. The
editors of Trend Letter identify only four trends for the coming year as follows:
Trend #1 - From Information to Innovation: The Pace Quickens
Trend #2 - From Unbridled Enthusiasm to Cautious Optimism
Trend #3 - From "Winner Take All" to Sharing The Wealth
and
Trend #4 - From IPOs to Management and Marketing
This publication goes on to add additional insight and information related to the four trend categories.
Many of these contain suggestions for what might lie ahead for parks and recreation as well.
• Recent breakthroughs in biogenetics as well as other areas of science are providing everybody
from individuals to policy makers with the power and the possibility of changing human destiny.
• Changes and accelerations in computing power will lower costs of production and operation. Use
of computers has lowered Ford Motor's cost of test crashing a car from $60,000 to $100 through
simulation. Similar reductions are happening in the oil industry as well. The cost of oil discovery
in 1991 was $10 a barrel and has fallen to $1 a barrel thanks to technology.
• The speed of communication rises and the cost of that communication drops. If you wanted to
down load the entire contents of the Library of Congress you could do so for about $40. While the
Internet really got into gear with the World Wide Web in 1990 and the browser in 1993, we are
already up to more than 350 million users worldwide.
• Information will become the driving force of the economy and profitability.
. Concerns about the digital divide result in fears of a growing economic divide. In 1998, the top
earning 1% of Americans had as much income as the lowest earning 100 million Americans
rso�
1 of 6 1/8/20017:08 PM
DECEMBER 2000
http://www.cprs.org/MembersOnly/trendscan/ts1200.ht[n
according to Fast Company. This new divide changes the makeup of ethnically diverse cities and
impacts upon rural communities once isolated from such changes. Watch for communities to pass
. living wage laws and work towards mixed - income housing.
. The ever -rising cost and concern about health care is going to roar into high speed as the aging of
the population, increasing longevity, and medical advances places a burden on both providers and
those footing the bill.
. Citizens may continue to take on 'BIG" business. A recent issue of Business Week stated that 72%
of Americans say business has too much power over many aspects of life. Whether it's the
community groups trying to keep out Wa1Mart and/or Home Depot or the French farmer who took
on McDonalds for endangering the local culture, there will be more efforts in this area.
• As the Trend Letter states "the corporate world is learning an invaluable lesson: it is possible to do
well by doing good ".
• This trend results in companies becoming far more environmentally conscious and responsible.
The list of companies incorporating ways that the environment can positively impact upon their
bottom line is growing.
• Venture philanthropy, a new model for bringing services to the disadvantaged and
disenfranchised, is alive and growing. Some differences between this approach and the old way of
donating funds or creating foundations is that the people doing the donating want to have a say in
where the money is directed; how the organization is managed; and what performance standards
will be set.
• We can expect some form of private /public nonprofit model or group to be formed that will move
venture philanthropy to its next level.
. . Hard to imagine what IPOs and dotcoms have to do with parks and recreation, but there are a
number of implications. One of the implications is the convergence of "point and click" and "brick
and mortar ". Consider the possibilities for parks and recreation as we try to converge in reverse
moving our "bricks and "mortar" to an augmented role with "point and click ".
Management Changes and Challenges
• Watch words for the new year include People, Productivity, Profitability, and Catering to Core
Customers. This results in a renewed focus on hiring and retaining good employees, ongoing
development of core focus through training and development, as well as managing the growing
generation gap in the work place.
• Out with the old and in with the new may become a slogan over the next couple of years as
growing numbers of employees especially in more traditional companies and organizations decide
to retire.
• It is projected that between 1996 and 2006, the labor force in this country will increase by 11%
while the demand will jump by 19% for that same time period.
• The new wave of immigration is on as the United States struggles to find workers at two opposite
ends of the spectrum: skilled and unskilled. Some states such as Iowa have positioned themselves
as the "Ellis Island of the Midwest" as they strive for the economic renewal that can be created by
this new population surge.
• "Going for the gold" takes on a new meaning as organizations across the country are either
actively recruiting older workers or trying to encourage older workers not to retire. Older staff are
being offered incentives such as good assignments, a chance to mentor younger staff, and less
stressful assignments as they transition into retirement.
• Life Stage Perks surface everywhere as organizations try to attract and retain younger workers
• who don't necessarily value what their older, retiree -bound colleagues want. The new menu of
benefits include such things as day care, stock options, time off to volunteer, paid sabbaticals,
transportable retirement benefits, and financial assistance for home purchasing. What's the
number one perk being requested? Company funded education and training.

. Human recycling prevails as organizations try to retain and renew long time employees who may
be bored or burnt out . They do so by offering these long established employees a chance for a
• challenge with a new job or set of responsibilities.
Marketing Chances and Challenges
• The marketplace becomes increasingly more diverse and the demand for one -to -one marketing
becomes a reality as we try to reach and serve fragmented markets. The suggested strategy is to
build customer share rather than market share.
• Opportunity marketing such as billboards on the side of barges in San Francisco Bay which can be
viewed by captive consumers bored as they commute will grow in popularity. Other examples
include stickers on fruit, ads in rest rooms and on the back of doors in physicians' examining
rooms, and logos on cars, silos, and hot air balloons.
• Permission marketing holds its own as we invite consumers to communicate (and connect) with
the organization and its products or services primarily through email.
• Get ready for "stealth" marketing to hide its head in the coming new year. Companies like Ford
and Boeing are spending money on ads to convince their employees about their market position.
"Educommerce" which is really education infused with advertisements and marketing will grow in
popularity as well. Educating and engaging consumers about their hobbies and interests speak to
higher order needs and will become a valued marketing technique.
• The two cohorts with the most spending clout are children, particularly teens and "tweens ", and
the newly wealthy. Both groups are challenging for organizations to reach. The newly wealthy
may buy an expensive new watch but drive a VW. Kids are so media savvy that they blow off
banner ads and are attracted to experiences such as concerts and sporting events.
. 5 Generation Z
`r` hat do we know about this new generation group that is piling into classrooms in ever larger
numbers. Well according to numbers compiled by HOSTS, Help One Student to Succeed, an educational
materials company out of Dallas, Texas, we can and should know the following:
• between 2001 and 2010, the number of non - Hispanic white elementary school students will drop
by 2.1 million which represents a decrease of 8% for children ages 5 to 9 and a decrease of 9% for
children ages 10 to 14
• there will be a decrease of 400,000 black children in elementary schools which translates into 3%
fewer 5 to 9 year olds and 10% fewer 10 to 14 year olds.
BUT, and here's the big BUT. Since enrollment in school is increasing steadily, the decline in white and
black students will be offset by children from other racial and ethnic groups. This will result in the
following:
• between 2001 and 2010, the percentage of Hispanic children ages 5 to 9 will increase by 21% and
the Hispanic children ages 10 to 14 will increase by 29%
• during that same time period, Asian students ages 5 to 9 will increase by 22% and Asian students
ages 10 to 14 will increase by 31 %.
Other things to keep in mind about Generation Z include the following:
•
• while GenX experienced computers in high school and GenY did so in elementary school, many
members of GenZ come to school computer literate
• the mix of diversity will lead to even greater mix of previous experiences prior to coming to
school

as they were sometimes referred to in this article and get ready to try and figure our what that means for
leisure time.

t5Patterns and Preferences
Take a look at some current patterns and preferences of people that relate to leisure needs and time
usage.
Fun, Excitement, and Make Believe (for adults ?)
A recent survey conducted by Yankelovich Monitor found that 37% of respondents wanted to "go places
that are so different from my daily experience that they feel like make- believe ". More than half of those
surveyed, 55 %, expressed a desire to have more fun. Of Americans with an income of $75,000 or above,
63% feel the need to "find more excitement and sensation in life" and 58% of this same group would
like to have more romance and mystery in their lives.
•How do you define happiness?
A recent study by Taylor Nelson Sofres Intersearch found that for the majority of people they surveyed,
personal relationships with partners, family, friends, and community are the most important factors
contributing to their overall sense of well - being. The 2,298 adults in the survey were asked to rate on a
4of6
1/8/2001 7:08 PM
DECEMBER 2 0 0 0 http:// www. cprs. org/ MembersOnly /trendscan/tsl20o.htm
scale of 1 to 10 their perceptions on five aspects of their lives: relationships, health, personal fulfillment
(defined as personal growth and job satisfaction), financial status, and leisure activity.
• The statistical analysis used by this firm resulted in the creation of a percentage impact for each factor.
The overall results included the following:
Relationships 28%
Health 22%
Personal Fulfillment 22%
Financial Status 16%
Leisure Activities 13%
Findings of surprise and/or interest included:
• Men ranked relationships higher than women did (29% to 25 %)
• Health is more important to women than men (27% to 17 %)
• As we age, personal fulfillment (personal growth and job satisfaction) become less important and
leisure becomes more of a priority; under 45 resulted in 25% for personal fulfillment and 9% for
leisure while those over 45 indicated 18% for personal growth and 16% for leisure
• Health is more important based upon geographic region of the country. The West ranked health at
35% while the other areas of the country ranged from 20 to 22 %.
• Money and leisure are of greater concern to married or committed couples than to singles.
Golf Numbers
Participation in golf has increased with a reported 26.4 million players in 1999 which reflects a 8.7%
increase from 1994. Much of the growth comes from the younger set. For the first time since the
National Golf Foundation has been keeping records, there are more golfers under the age of 40; 47.7%
•of golfers are between the ages of 18 and 39. In addition, the number of junior golfers has increased
19.5% since 1994. It is sometimes called the "Tiger Effect." The impact of GenX and Gen Y has already
made a difference on the game with things like extreme golf and there is likely more to come.

Re: Seniors Division Monthly Activities Report
Home Repair Program - The new home repair program begins next week with two very
qualified volunteers, each willing to spend one day a week helping seniors make minor
repairs in their homes. The service was advertised in the January OASIS newsletter and
already six people have submitted requests. The program requires that the person served
has some financial Limitations and that the service requested falls under a category of
minor repairs. As the program grows, new volunteers wit[ be sought.
Public Access Defibrillation Trial to Start at OASIS - The Public Access Defibrillation Trial,
commonly referred to as PAD, begin at OASIS in January. PAD is a collaborative study
between the Orange County Emergency Medical Services and Mission Hospital Regional
Medical Center. Thirty hospitals across the country are participating in the PAD trial
sponsored by the National Institute of Health (NIH). Mission Hospital was chosen as the
participating site. The OASIS Center is only one of the approximately 40 highly populated
locations in Orange County where the trial will be conducted. The purpose of the study is
is to compare survival rates from sudden cardiac death in the community for those who
receive an automatic external defibrillator in addition to the standard of 911 and CPR —
compared to individuals who only receive 911 and CPR. On January 17, OASIS staff were
trained to use the defibrillation machine and on CPR. The Fire Department Emergency
Medicine Division and the City Manager have approved this program.
L
Participants Over 80 are Celebrated - This City's seniors over 80 years of age were honored
at a special celebration at OASIS on January 24. The exceptional entertainment for the
afternoon was the California's Cloggers Unlimited, a local group that presents a form of
Irish step dancing. Only those who have obtained this special age were invited; one
hundred and seventy guests attended.
Free Tax Preparation Begins - The AARP sponsored tax assistance program begins February
1. The OASIS Center will have 7 IRS trained volunteers available to complete both federal
and state returns. Last year volunteers prepared 649 total tax returns, spending over 600
hours. It is anticipated that more returns will be completed this year than ever before.
Appointments are required.

FROM:
Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission
General Services Director
SUBJECT: Bonita Canyon Sports Park Bench Selection
The Commission requested an informational report regarding the subject at the January
2001 meeting.
Anderson School was the meeting location for several public hearings regarding the
development of Bonita Canyon Sports Park. Additionally, meetings between
Commissioners and staff relative to proposed amenities for the park concluded with
direction for staff to select manufacturers, and products, which were included in the
contract specifications presented for bid.
Staff's selection of the Victoria style bench manufactured by Quick Crete was taken from
the City's Official Bench List (Attachment A, and photo). The Victoria style bench was
selected for beauty of design, and durability. The bench and trash receptacle style match,
and both are made of recycled concrete, with reinforced steel, and a coating resistant to
damage from graffiti.
Subsequently, a contract for the construction of the park was awarded by the City
Council in May 2000. Staff made a final approval of the bench proposal submitted by the
park contractor in August in consideration of the significant time requirement to order all
necessary equipment. The benches will be strategically installed throughout the park, and
on concrete pads.
Informationally, benches may be added, by way of donations, in the future.
Very respectfully,
David E. Niederhaus

Dear Mr. Lomeli,
I am writing to you regarding donating one bench to the City of Newport Beach.. I
would request that this bench be placed on the Balboa Pier. In Neu of Christmas gifts this
year, I am having a bench donated by my family for me. Thus my bench would be in the
sam location as one of the benches we donated for Christine Ahlg+en Peck. I understand
the cost of the bench is $500 and bronze plaque for $100.
• 1 understand that this request is subject to approval by the City of Newport Beach and
will be brought up at the next Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission meeting.
Please advise me as to when that might be.
If you should have any questions or need any more information from me please do not
hesitate to call roe at (949)645 -4977 or work (714) 966-00566
The benches in Christine's name at 612 Street park and the Balboa Pier look wonderful.
Thank you and .Bandy Kearns for all your help. It truly makes all her friends happy to be
part of this wonderful city project..
Sincerely,
Mary KAY

Re: Lincoln Athletic Center
RECOMMENDATION
The Recreation Activities Committee proposed that the following motion be adopted by
the Commission:
Grant usage of the lights at Lincoln Athletic Center on four (4) Saturdays,
March 10, 17, 24 and 31 until 6:30pm for the purpose of finishing games in
progress only. The lights will be programmed to shut off at 6:30pm. In
addition, should the City direct that further energy conservation
measures be taken, this program will be reconsidered.
BACKGROUND
The Recreation Activities Committee met January 12, 2001 to discuss the request from
the Newport Beach Little League for use of the Lincoln Athletic Field Lights on Fields 1
and 2 on Friday nights until 9:45pm beginning February 9 and on Saturday nights until
8pm beginning February 17 (letter attached).
In accordance with City Council Policy 1 -27 Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission
Decisions — the Commission must consider the Saturday night usage as it falls outside
the policy guidelines.
Residents were notified about the meeting Recreation Activity Committee meeting. An
e -mail from Robert and Karen Kopicki is attached. In addition, Mrs. Kopicki attended the
meeting on January 12.
Also the Committee instructed staff to further communicate with youth sports coaches
that they must turn off the key activator, even if the lights go out and to shut off lights
if games are over before 6:30pm, not waiting for the automatic shut off, in the spirit of
saving energy.
As a further action, the Commission could consider a moratorium on new requests for
use of night field lights until the energy crisis is alleviated.

On behalf of the Newport Beach Little League and pursuant

Commission and the Community Services Department to use the fields at
Lincoln 1 and Lincoln 2 until 9:45 p.m. from February 9, 2001 through
the third week in June 2001 for games and practices.
As you and the members of the PB &R Commission are aware,
this is not a new request. The Newport Beach Little League has been

years. This season our need is as compelling as last year because
without scheduling night games on Fridays, we simply do not have the
fields to accommodate the number of players at the AA, AAA and
Major Division levels. We already have scheduled games on every
available field at every available time Monday through Saturday, leaving
only Sundays for practice. Without the Friday night games and
occasional Friday night practices, we cannot make it.

As noted above, we have scheduled games on every available
field on Saturdays. For our Upper Division, our games at Lincoln 1 and
Lincoln 2 are scheduled at 8:30 a.m., 11:00 a.m., 1:30 P.M. and 4:00
p.m. For years, we have been struggling to complete the 4:00 p.m. game
on Saturdays before Daylight Savings Time begins. At times, we are
playing in the dark because games get backed up; sometimes because of
ties, other times because of field problems or umpires not being on
time.
Accordingly, we request that from Saturday, February 17,
2001 through and including Saturday, March 31, 2001, the Newport
Beach Little League be allowed to use the lights on Saturdays until 7:00
p.m., the maximum time that we generally use the fields on Saturdays
during Daylight Savings Time. Of course, if the 4:00 p.m. games on
Lincoln 1 and Lincoln 2 are over before that time, we would not need to
use the lights until 7:00 p.m. and we would commit to turn them off.

As the PB &R Commission is aware, we have been self -
funding field improvements for years. We understand that budgets are
tight; however, we respectfully request that the pW Commission and
the Department of Community Services consider allocating available
funds to assist our organization to improve the parks which we use. We
recognize and thank you for your yearly allocation of brick dust to us
for use on all of the fields at Lincoln, Buffalo Hills, Andersen and San
Miguel. Although we would be receptive to funds for any purposes that
you or the PBdR Commission deems appropriate, we call your attention to
the following three projects which we would like to discuss with you.
1. Snack Bar at the "Banana Fields." This project is
important to both Newport Beach Little League and Soccer.
2. Handicap Access walkway at Lincoln Athletic Fields.
We have constructed the walkway from behind home plate at Lincoln 2
to the end of the batting cages. We need funds to complete the link to
the kindergarden play yard at Lincoln. In connection with securing the
permission from the Division of the State Architect to install the
electronic scoreboard at Lincoln 2, we secured permission to build such a
walkway at Lincoln 2. Perhaps the City could assist us in obtaining
Federal Grant Funds for this worthwhile project. Again, this project
would also benefit AYSO because it would provide handicap access to
their fields as well.
3. Portable Snack Bar at Lincoln 2. Our former trailer
had to be replaced because of wear and tear. We are in the process of
purchasing a new trailer similar to the old one.

Ref: Agenda for the Recreation Activities Committee Meeting, Tue. 1112/01, Noon in the Central Library
Conf. Room
Dear Andrea McGuire, Sr Recreation Mgr, amcguire @city.newport- beach.ca.us:
Per your request, I am writing to you to voice my concerns about Item -3 of the Agenda for the Referenced
Meeting. I cannot attend the meeting and you therefore assured me that you would read my comments and
enter them into the minutes for presentation to the PB &R Commission at the Feb 6, 2001 meeting.
My wife and I are residents of the Canyon Crest Estates Condominium complex, which is located on
Pacific View, across the street from the Lincoln Athletic Center. We have lived there since 1982.
We object to the Little League's request for Saturday night Lincoln Field usage for the following
reasons:
I.
Approximately 2 years ago, the Little League made a similar request that was elevated to the City
Council where the request was denied as a compromise to the surrounding communities. There is no
need to revisit this issue.
2.
Saturday evening usage of the Lincoln complex creates undo stress on the surrounding communities
•
because it results in a greater level of lights, noise and traffic then when the field is not in use.
3.
The field lights can presently be used from M -Th until IOPM and can also be used on Friday. Asa
good neighbor consideration, the surrounding communities deserve a respite from this activity on
Saturday and Sunday evenings.
4.
The State and the City are in the midst of a power crisis. We are being threatened with "rolling
blackouts" and large rate increases. Under these conditions, it is irresponsible for the Little League to
ask for extended lighting periods and it is irresponsible for the City to even consider the issue.
5.
Given the current power crisis, we suggest that the Recreation Dept investigate means for more
efficient use and consolidation of the lighted periods and also consider eliminating lighted hours or
even entire lighted evenings in the interest of conservation.
With regard to the issue of a "funding request for the Newport Beach Little League" we request that
you send us more detail on this issue. If this request concerns the City providing funding to the Little
League, then we would have to voice our strenuous objections.
The Little League is a special interest group that should be funded and staffed solely by its participants and
independent donations. It should not be funded by the City in any part. Consider, if we fund the Little
League today, why not the AYSO, Rugby and even Churches tomorrow. I believe that there would be
legal issues raised.
We appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
Robert and Karen Kopicki

PB &R Commission Agenda
Item No. A_
February 6, 2001
TO: Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission
FROM: General Services Director
SUBJECT: Tree Removal Request
Recommendation
To remove a City Ficus tree located at Mariners Drive adjacent to Mariners Elementary
School, across from 1927 Mariners Drive.
History
• Mr. Eric Jetta, Director of Facilities, Maintenance, Operations and Transportation, Newport-
Mesa School District, has submitted the attached Tree Removal Request application pursuant
to City Council Policy G -1 requesting the removal of a City Ficus street tree adjacent to the
school property.
Discussion
The applicant has indicated a repeated history of tree root damage to public property (see

with this claim, however, a history of repeated school district service calls and a video has
been provided which documents the invasion of the sewer lateral by Ficus tree roots at the
referenced location. Staff recommends that this request be considered by the Parks, Beaches,
and Recreation Commission.
This request does meet the minimum requirements of the City Council Policy G -1.
Mr. Eric Jetta has received a copy of this report and a notice of the February 6 Commission
meeting.
Very respectfully,

Dear Dave:
I hope you and your staff had a great New Year. Attached I am providing you with the required forms,
work order requests for sewer back -up and a video tape of the sewer system concerning a ficus tree on
Mariners Street. As you know, ficus trees are notorious in seeking sewer lines. It has been determined
that the root system from this tree has blocked off free flow of the sewer and has created a very
unsanitary condition for the students and the staff at Mariners Elementary School.
Again, please consider removing this tree and if you require additional information, I will be happy to
provide it to you.
Thank you very much.

Dear Eric,
Your request for the removal of one City parkway street tree has been evaluated by staff.
Staff reviewed your phone request, performed a field inspection, and determined the tree
did not meet the G -1 Policy criteria for removal. Staff recommends the retention of the
tree in accordance with the attached City Council Policy G -1, until the following items
have been provided.
Specifically, your removal request lacked the following item(s): copies of bills and
records indicating repeated and proven history of damage. Please forward any
copies of records indicating sewer damage so we may proceed with your request.
Additionally, verification of the sewer lateral location adjacent to the tree would be
helpful as well. Dig Alert notification did not verify the sewer lateral location.
If you disagree with this decision, your recourse is to appeal the decision to the Parks,
Beaches, and Recreation Commission for further review. If you wish to appeal the
decision for tree retention, please send a letter within 15 days to David E. Niederhaus,

meetings are the first Tuesday of each month (excluding holidays) so please note your
availability to personally present your claim. Incomplete appeals (missing
documentation or required criteria materials) will not be forwarded to the
Commission.
It is important to emphasize that under no circumstance are City trees to be removed
without City permission. The City will seek fiell restitution of the value of the tree
should such an illegal removal occur.
Please contact me at 644 -3055 if you have any questions.

Reference is made to the trees on Mariners Street in Newport Beach. Trees on this street have been
penetrating the sewer system from the drains from Mariners Elementary School into the sanitation main
line. This situation created unhealthy conditions at least four (4) times last school year. We have scoped
• the lines and it is clear that the roots from the tree with the "X" indicated need immediate removal. We
have made numerous efforts to clear lines caused by the roots of this tree. Please make arrangements to
remove this tree as soon as possible.

BILL NUMBER: SB 124 INTRODUCED
BILL TEXT
INTRODUCED BY Senator Johnson
(Coauthor: Assembly Member John Campbell)
JANUARY 25, 2001
An act relating to state property.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 124, as introduced, Johnson. Department of Transportation:
property transfer: Department of Parks and Recreation: City of
Newport Beach.
(1) The California Constitution authorizes the Legislature, by
statute, with respect to state surplus property located in the
coastal zone and acquired by the expenditure of certain tax revenues,
to transfer the property, for a consideration at least equal to the
acquisition cost paid by the state to acquire the property, to the
Department of Parks and Recreation for state park purposes.
This bill would require the Department of Transportation to
transfer a certain parcel of land in the City of Newport Beach to the
Department of Parks and Recreation, for use as a park. The bill
would authorize the Department of Parks and Recreation and the City
of Newport Beach to enter into an operating agreement whereby the
city would agree to perform all or a portion of the responsibilities
related to the construction, operation, and maintenance of the park
and its improvements and to assume liability.
(2) The bill would declare that, due to the special circumstances
concerning the Department of Transportation property in the City of
Newport Beach, a general statute cannot be made applicable within the
meaning of Section 16 of Article IV of the California Constitution,
and the enactment of a special statute is therefore necessary.
(3) To the extent that the bill would impose new duties on the
City of Newport Beach, the bill would impose a state - mandated local
program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local
agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the
state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that
reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this
act for a specified reason.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State - mandated local program: yes.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. (a) The Department of Transportation shall transfer to
the Department of Parks and Recreation, upon payment of consideration
at least equal to the acquisition cost paid by the state, pursuant
to Section 9 of Article XIX of the California Constitution, the
state -owned real property described in subdivision (b), for state
park purposes.
(b) The property to be transferred pursuant to subdivision (a)
• consists of approximately 15.05 acres, located in the coastal zone of
the City of Newport Beach, adjacent to Superior Avenue and Pacific
Coast Highway, identified by Director's Deed 4040766 -01 -01 and known
as "Caltrans West."
SEC. 2. The Department of Parks and Recreation may enter into an
1 of 2 2/2/200111:45 AM
SB 124 Senate Bill - INTRODUCED http: / /info.sen.ca.gov /pub/bill /se..._ 124 _bill_20010125_introduced.html
operating agreement with the City of Newport Beach which would
require the city to perform all or a portion of the responsibilities
• related to the construction, operation, and maintenance of the park
and its improvements, and to assume all or a portion of the liability
associated therewith.
SEC. 3. Due to the unique circumstances concerning the Department
of Transportation property in the City of Newport Beach, the
Legislature finds and declares that a general statute cannot be made
applicable within the meaning of subdivision (b) of Section 16 of
Article IV of the California Constitution, and that this special
statute is necessary.
SEC. 4. No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to
Section 6 of Article XIIIB of the California Constitution because the
only costs that may be incurred by a local agency or school district
are the result of a program for which legislative authority was
requested by that local agency or school district, within the meaning
of Section 17556 of the Government Code and Section 6 of Article
XIITB of the California Constitution.
