Deputy Chief Ron Sutherland stated that public safety cannot be compromised and the real issue is access for the lifeguards and that is really what is effecting the placement of the courts. Some other issues that tend to occur is that the lifeguards sometimes become police officers and that is not their duty. Problems in the past have occurred because the fire rings were reduced in size during this construction and lifeguards have become mediators. He suggested that the number of fire rings remain the same of that they be removed entirely. He noted that he was happy that nets would be provided for the courts as that also will make it easier on the lifeguards and will not have r L Parks, Beaches & Recreation Commission Regular Meeting February 16, 2006 - 7pm Page 3 to become involved in any problems and that it will help show the location of the courts and keep people from putting their towels down. Discussion ensued regarding location of the showers, nets, challenge court rules. Chair Ruzicka opened the public discussion Jim Turner presented a petition of 240 signatures in favor of keeping the fire pits. Ellen Counts suggested that the fire pits be spaced out and that more needs to be done on what can and cannot be burned and noted that enforcement is a problem and that the parking staff should be more aware of what is being brought in to burn and recommended that they be listed for the public to see. Commissioner Allen stated that possibly we should look at only allowing the fire rings to be used after dusk. Chief Sutherland stated that there are budget issues here and reminded them that lifeguards are not policemen. The following people spoke about the location of the volleyball courts, problems with location of shower, concern of smoke from the fire pits. • Bill Thomas Ben Koontz Ron Hanks Kirk Morgan Joe ft Tracy Raswiski Liz Ogden Gina Haas Dave Swanson Laura Hanks Glen Grabowski Ed Ripalski Discussion ensued regarding having a separate discussion of the fire rings at a future meeting Chair Ruzicka closed the public discussion Director Knight stated that in order for the Commission to discuss the fire rings that staff would need to get direction from Council and then if needed to talk to Coastal Commission. Motion by Commission Brown to have the Commission follow whatever protocol is necessary and approach the City Council with the desire to have an in -depth discussion on all of the issues of the fire pits at CdM State Beach and as a result of that discussion make some recommendations to the Council to contact the Coastal Commission and work through the process of perhaps changing the configuration or reducing the number or staying status quo. • Parks, Beaches It Recreation Commission Regular Meeting February 16, 2006 - 7pm Page 4 Commissioner Garrett stated that he would like additional information regarding the problems of the smoke from the fire rings. He noted that it seems logical that the courts should be moved away from the fire rings. Commission Lugar stated that Commissioner Garrett was off point and that there was a motion on the floor and would like to discuss one issue at a time. Motion carried. Commission Allen stated that with the assumption that the fire rings will stay as they are that the volleyball courts could change locations in the future. Captain Mitch White stated that in order to get from tower 5 that the entire length of the beach has to be coned and generally there are people lined up next to the cones and you should notice that there has been a lot of sand lost on the beach and that it would be difficult to put a court in that area. Discussion ensued regarding locations of the courts. Chair Ruzicka stated that since it seems to be inexpensive to move the courts that the Commission should go with the consensus and seems to make the public happy and if there is a huge mistake then it can be undone later. . Motion by Commissioner Brown to hold the revision of Resolution 2006 -_ rescinding 92 -93 and 99 -55 and to move the volleyball courts as listed below. Motion carried by acclamation. 5. Community Service Award Nomination - Superintendent McGuire stated that there were two nominations for the Newport Balboa Rotary Club and for the OASIS Senior Center front office volunteers. She stated that they should be presented these awards separately at the April and then the May meeting. • 11 0 Parks, Beaches £t Recreation Commission Regular Meeting February 16, 2006 - 7pm Page 5 Motion by Chair Ruzicka to award the Community Service Award to the Newport Balboa Rotary Club in April and the OASIS Senior Center front office volunteers at the May meetings.

Parks Maintenance Division staff continues to coordinate with the Public Works Department regarding extensive renovation of the Corona Del Mar State Beach, which is under way. This project provides for new restrooms, a concession stand, parking lot pay booth, a lifeguard emergency response area, new irrigation and landscaping. 3. Parks Maintenance Division staff continues coordinating the complete renovation of the State Beach picnic area, which was deleted from the overall State Beach Renovation Project due to budget constraints. Removals, concrete work, drainage, irrigation installation, and shrub plantings have been completed. The installation of sod, tables, barbeques, and decorative trash enclosures will be scheduled to coincide with the landscape and irrigation work of the State Beach Renovation Project. 4. The Parks Maintenance Division Crew Chiefs and Irrigation Specialist attended the Annual Landscape Equipment/Product Industry Show. This allows staff to stay current on industry changes, which makes for smoother and more productive operations. The Centennial Plaza Project in Corona de Mar has been completed. The project includes a clock tower equipped with a chime, decorative paving, raised planters, irrigation and plantings. The project turned out well, and the maintenance will by our existing Median and Roadside Contractor, TruGreen LandCare, Inc. 6. Parks Maintenance Division staff, Greg Lewis and Kevin Pekar which hold pesticide applicators licenses, attended a pesticide training. Attending these ongoing trainings is a requirement to keep their licenses current. 7. An Eagle Scout Project at Arroyo Park, approved by the Parks, Beaches, and • Recreation Commission, was completed. The project provided for the renovation of a decomposed granite trail, building and installing a wood bench, and planting of some California natives. 8. Parks staff coordinated field work and preparations for the Little. League's "Opening Day ". Upcoming Activities forAuril The planting of replacement shrubs and ground covers will continue Citywide. 2. Parks Maintenance Division staff will continue coordinating the control of rodents with contract services. Trees Division Activities During the month of February, 1,459 trees were trimmed, 28 trees were planted, 30 trees were removed (9 Reforestation, 19 Claim Related and 2 Problem Trees), and crews responded to 12 emergency tree calls related to a wind storm. In the month of March, 1,207 trees were trimmed, 33 trees were planted, 5 trees were removed (4 Claim Related and 1 Problem Tree), and crews responded to 4 emergency tree calls. 1. The City's tree trimming contractor, West Coast Arborists, is currently pruning trees within the Spyglass Hills, Santa Ana Heights and Westcliff areas as part of the City's overall grid trimming schedule. 2. Since July 2004, under City Council direction and funding, staff has undertaken an extensive root pruning effort. Combined efforts of the Field Maintenance, Tree Maintenance Division, and West Coast Arborists staffs have resulted in the root pruning of 768 trees to date. This effort will mitigate any potential property damage as a result of City tree roots and provide for tree longevity in the urban forest. The extensive work included root pruning, root barrier installation, and hardscape repairs at each tree site. The attached Tree Activity Report summarizes requests and field activities performed during the past months. 4. The annual Arbor Day event will be held April 28 at 9:15am at Eastbluff Elementary School. The Trees Division has coordinated this event with the Recreation and Senior Services Department and the California State Forest Service. This is the City's 16r' year selected as a Tree City USA and 11 th year the City receives the Growth Award. The event provides students the opportunity to learn the importance of trees in an urban environment. The event includes a . presentation of the City's proclamation, tree planting ceremony, and a tour of the trees on the school's campus. Beach Maintenance Activities • As a result of minimal rain amounts, which greatly reduces the amount of debris that wash down the Santa Ana River and out of the Upper Bay, Beach Maintenance Staff has been able to catch up on deferred maintenance and assist with special projects. One such special project was to deliver and help spread 20 cubic yards of sand at the Environmental Nature Center. The Center requested the Department's help in adding a 15th Ecological Habitat representative of California to their facility. The newest habitat represents a costal strand, which will include beach sand and native plants of that particular zone. ENC staff was truly appreciative of the City's effort in partnering with them in continuing to provide a sanctuary for area residents and visiting students to gain knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the natural world. Staff has completed the bi -annual deep cleaning of all the upper lots along the oceanfront beach in order to remove weeds and other buried debris. Since mechanical beach cleaning equipment generates tremendous amounts of dust, the upper lots closest to oceanfront homes can only be cleaned during the rainy season or when Santa Ana wind condition exist. In the past, residences have complained about dust finding its way into their homes and dirty windows as a result of beach cleaning equipment operating too close to their homes. The Beach Division continues to ensure that the beach is a safe and clean place to recreate, while at the same time paying special attention to wind conditions while performing beach cleaning and grooming operations, thus keeping complaints from oceanfront residents to a minimum. • See attached General Services Department, Activities Reports for January and February 2006.

On January 291h we lost the life of Shaun Butter more. Shaun grew up on Santa Ana Avenue and died at the young age of 23. Since many of us like Shaun and his family have lived in this area for decades his loss is deeply felt by many. On January 1 4l a memorial was held on San Bernardino Avenue, literally involving the entire street, hundreds of neighbors came to give Shaun a spiritual send off and his family loving support. Many of us in Newport Heights who have been part of Shaun's life would like to join hands in dedicating a bench in our Cliff Drive Park, the park that Shaun adored. Could you please advise as to the process for achieving our goal. Sincerely, Qom' Ae Fifeanne- Bonnie & Brion Jeanne C: The Buttermore Family 470 Old Newport Blvd Newport Beach, CA 92663.

Backeround City Council Policy G -5 (Parks and Street Improvement Donations) was adopted in July 1992, to regulate the procedures for donations related to City park and street improvements. In 2004, the General Services Department developed revisions to Council Policy G -5 to include changes to tree, bench, park and street amenity donations. Additionally in 2004, the Recreation and Senior Services Department developed a proposed Council Policy B -17 to help regulate donations for recreation programs and facilities. In January 2006, the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission's (PB &R) Donation Committee asked staff to develop a new Council Policy, B -17, which combines both of these policies and unifies all parks, public improvement, facilities, and recreation program donations into one citywide policy. Discussion Over the past few years, the City has received a growing number of requests to donate benches, trees, and park amenity donations. Realizing this, the PB &R Commission directed staff to research additional items that the public could donate for recreation programs, • services, and facilities. In addition, the PB &R Commission asked staff to develop a donation catalog that could be distributed to residents that were interested in donating items to the City. • In developing this new policy and catalog, staff contacted several cities to learn about their donation/gift policies, dedication and naming policies, and how they manage sponsorship inquiries. Staff has used these examples to better restructure the existing policy, and to add several new elements that help address new donation requests that the City encounters. The proposed policy and catalog have been structured to: 1. Establish a fair, equitable, and uniform procedure for which gifts may be donated to the City, 2. Streamline the donation process for residents, staff, and the PB &R Commission, and 3. Create a user - friendly donation catalog that will assist residents in identifying items available for donation to the City. Revisions /Additions to Policy This newly revised policy combines park and street improvement donations as well as recreation programs /facility donations. Revisions to the park and street improvement sections establish the following: • Limitations /guidelines to accepting donation items • Definition of restricted vs. unrestricted donation items • • Tree inventory of sites throughout the City and tree species that are available for donation at these sites • Bench inventory of sites throughout the City and bench styles that are available for donation at these sites • Types of park, public improvement, and street amenities that are available for donation • Dollar value acceptance levels for staff and the PB &R Commission Additions to the recreation program and facility sections establish the following: • The acceptance of cash gifts, with dollar value acceptance levels for staff and the PB &R Commission, and provisions that imply no "strings" attached to cash donations • Criteria for allowing naming rights for donated items • Recognition criteria and limitations for event sponsors • The right to decline donations • Unless specified, the provision that no special privileges will result from the donation • The creation of a catalog for donation items • Criteria for acknowledging donors and providing plaques for donated items • The Donation Committee of the PB &R Commission reviewed this item in January 2006 and • provided staff with direction on elements to include in this new policy and catalog. In addition, Mayor Webb was provided with a copy of the proposed policy and catalog. Following PB &R Commission approval, the proposed policy will be forwarded to the City Council for adoption. Very respectfully Mark Harmon Marie Knight Attachments: • r 1 LJ (A) New City Council Policy B -17 — Parks, Facilities, and Recreation Program Donations (B) City of Newport Beach Donation Catalog B -17 PARKS, FACILITIES AND RECREATION PROGRAM DONATIONS • PURPOSE The City Council recognizes the need to promote community involvement and active participation in quality of life components throughout the community, and the need to establish a fair, equitable, and uniform procedure for which gifts may be donated to the City.

Staff has completed and attached the Tree Inspection Report, Tree Inventory Detail, and photographs related to this reforestation request. The applicant is requesting tree removal under the City Council Policy G -1, Reforestation of City Trees guidelines. Staff has pruned the City Aleppo Pine twice (March 2005 & November 2005) in an effort to enhance the affected neighbors view and retain the mature and valuable tree. The tree has been pruned to its maximum level, and any further pruning will destroy the tree's integrity and structure. However, the Association feels the pruning efforts have been ineffective and are requesting removal of the City tree to enhance the neighborhood view. The applicant has met all requirements of the G -1 Policy. The CHPOA will assume the full cost of the removal and replacement of the tree, approximately $585.00 ($390 removal and • $195 replacement). • The President of CHPOA has received a copy of this report and a notice of the April 4 Commission meeting. , Very Attachments: (A) (B) (C) (D) (E) (F) (G) (H) (I) 11 r1 LJ CHPOA Board Resolution CHPOA Board Meeting Minutes Tree Removal Request Application Correspondence dated January 26, 2006 Correspondence dated December 9 & 12, 2005 Tree Inspection Report Tree Inventory Detail Area Map Photos n L January 31 ", 2006 Mark Harmond General Services Director City of Newport Beach Mark: Pursuant to your reply, the Corona Highland Homeowners Association passed a resolution to formally request a reforestation of the tree located at 535 De Anza Drive.

In order to resolve a view issue, you have asked that the City to cut this tree to an overall height of no greater than 16 feet. 1 have personalty visited the site with the Parks and Trees Superintendent and the City's Urban Forester /Certified Arborist. I concur with their findings that reducing the height of the tree to 16 feet would cause permanent damage and possibly kill the tree. At a minimum, it would significantly disfigure the tree which would seriously detract from the beauty of the neighborhood. The City will continue to incur the cost of trimming the tree twice per year as is our current arrangement, If you need additional information, please feel free to contact me at (949) 644 -3055.

I have included Five documents with this letter: 1. Correspondence dated November 18, 2005 and February 14, 2005, from the Corona Highlands Property Owners Association addressed to David E. Niederhaus requesting reduction in height of a City tree at 536 De Anza Drive. • 2. Minutes from the Parks, Beaches, and Recreation Commission meeting of April 5, 2005. The minutes reflect the commission's decision to not place the tree on the Special Tree List based on your input at that meeting. They also state that a reforestation request must go through your established homeowners association. is 3. Correspondence dated May 24, 2005, from the Deputy Director of General Services denying your reforestation request based on an incomplete application. 4. Parks and Trees Maintenance Divisions Activities Report to the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission, agenda dated June 7, 2005 reporting the Trees Division activity related to the tree. S. Council Policy G -1 and cover letter which explains the process for retention or removal of City trees. Staff has pruned the tree twice as indicated in item 4 above. We feel that if we reduce the height of the tree anymore it will probably cause the tree to decline and die. It is important to emphasize that under no circumstances are City trees to be removed or pruned without City authorization. The City will seek full restitution of the value of the tree should such an illegal removal occur. 3300 Newport Boulevard • Post Office Box 1768 • Newport Beach, California 92658 -8915 Telephone: (949) 644 -3055 • Fax: (949) 650 -0747 • www.city.newport- beach.ca.us 10 Thank you again for your patience with this matter.

City discovered this tree was on `Right of Way' in 2004 so has had only 1 growing season to initiate trimming process to resize. a. Tree currently is open allowing a panoramic view with some obstruction Per G3 policy on views b. All 3 affected homeowners have over 160 degrees of view now over rooftops and between many neighborhood trees. 2. Two more season trims will bring tree into height that allows 2 adjacent homeowners to have their view back. a. See photos of trim plan height adjustment 3. CHPA HOA has not properly allowed community to comment on this reforestation proposal a. Never published in community minutes so no `public forum' discussion ensued. • b. In recent days, over a dozen homeowners were surprised and disappointed to hear about the proposed tree removal. Given adequate time for a public forum, the HOA would be well aware that this action does not represent the opinions of the community. Background • I am Paul Rockley and my family & I moved into 535 De Anza Drive in February of 2002. At that time, the tree was assessed to $25k in value and now exceeds $40k in value to the property. • We began trimming the tree under the direction of a certified arborist recommended by Rogers Gardens in conjunction with Modern Tree Service • History • Tree is over 50 years old (see ring count picture) • Was allowed to grow over 30 feet by previous owners • Has always been on City 'Right of Way' but was not identified in the '91 tree inventory process • o Was found in 2004 & City began trimming in early 2005 ' d t 9 Yii e. t 4 Rapp* Pmsra - � t '� � �� a ♦-+�l. , a "
