subvention on the adoption and implementation of a CMP. In

X. OLD BUSINESS
1. MAIN STREET OVERHEAD UTILITY CONFLICTS
Robert Ledendecker, Director of Public Works, reported that
decorative street light installations along Main Street had been
authorized by the Council but, due to the size and configuration
of the lights, a conflict resulted between the overhead utilities
and the new street lights. Southern California Edison Company
had indicated that there would be no additional cost to alter
their facilities because their overhead street lights would be
removed with the new underground street light installation.
Correspondence with Pacific Bell indicated that it would be the
City's responsibility to fund the cost of relocation of the
overhead telephone company facilities. The City Attorney's
office was currently reviewing the funding responsibility of this
relocation and final determination was not available at this
time. Staff suggested the City proceed with the relocation of
the Pacific Bell facilities in the amount of $10,660 and fund it
with the surplus of the decorative lighting funds. Staff would
continue to work with the City Attorney's office to determine if
the City should be refunded the cost for the relocation of the
Pacific Bell overhead facilities.
It was moved by Potts. seconded by Pontious, to authorize the use
of surplus decorative street lighting funds (Project No. 700070)
to fund the relocation of overhead Pacific Bell utilities along
Main Street at specified areas between "C" street and the Route
55 Freeway.
Motion carried 4-0, Prescott absent.
2. FEEDBACK FOUNDATION REQUEST FOR FUNDS
104
Royleen White, Director of Community and Administrative Services,
reported the Feedback Foundation, which provided a nutrition
program at the Tustin Area Senior Center, had requested
additional monies from the City due to a shortage of federal
funds. Staff was very supportive of the program, but had
questions regarding the Foundation's financial management and had
provided alternatives for Council action: 1) Fund the entire
request of $16,205; or 2) Fund only the Tustin Area Senior Center
site, which was approximately $10,000, and not fund the request
for home delivered meals. She noted that while the home
delivered meals program was worthwhile; the Foundation was
charging the City for home delivered meals without a contract for
those services.
Mayor Edgar stated he supported continued funding of the
congregate site but was not prepared to expand the program any
further. He requested clarification on the congregate site
funding of $4,973 or $9,973.
Royleen White replied that the $9,973 was specifically for the
congregate site and the $5,000 previously funded by the City
could be credited toward the congregate site leaving a balance of
$4,973, depending upon the Feedback Foundation's interpretation.
William Huston, City Manager, pointed out that the City could pay
for the cost of the program at the Senior Center, but there was
no agreement with the Feedback Foundation for the home delivery
program.
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
Page 8, 4-1-91
Council/staff discussion followed regarding alternative programs,
such as Meals on Wheels; credit for funding raised at the Senior
Center site; number fed by home delivered meals; and cost
breakdown of the program.
It was moved by Edgar, seconded by Puckett, to fund only the
congregate site program at the Tustin Area Senior Center not to
exceed $9,973; direct staff to renegotiate lack of $3,000 credit
for funds raised at the Tustin Area Senior Center; and identify
recipients and other providers for home delivered meals.
Continued discussion followed by Council and staff regarding the
home delivered meals program and statistics.
Motion carried 4-0, Prescott absent. 41

Christine Shingleton, Assistant City Manager, reported on
February 25, 1991, the Irvine Boulevard/Brittany Woods Annexation
No. 153 petition was received by the City. She gave a
description of the boundaries, acreage, number of residents, and
registered voters. She pointed out that three previous
annexation proposals (Nos. 150, 151, 152), along with the North
Tustin Incorporation proposal, were pending before the Local
Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO). LAFCO had no obligation to
proceed with Annexation No. 153 until the incorporation action
was completed. She added that the cost involved to file
Annexation No. 153 with LAFCO was approximately $5,000.
Council/staff discussion followed regarding timeline of

2. YOUTH BASKETBALL AND SOCCER LEAGUES
24
Susan Jones, Recreation Superintendent, reported there were
several low cost alternatives to provide summer programs for
youth this summer. Staff suggested the Council appropriate
$5,000 and direct staff to provide a recreational youth
basketball league and a youth soccer program; and money could
also be set aside for scholarships for youths who wanted to play
in the more structured, traditional -type programs. The proposed
programs were basically volunteer, but because of liabilities and
security reasons, staff would have to be present to coordinate
the program and utilize facilities, such as the Boys Club.
Councilmember Potts stated the basketball and soccer programs
would be city-wide; however, the City would focus on attempting
to involve the southwest area youth.
Don Biery, Parks and Recreation Commission, requested the Parks
and Recreation Commission review the staff recommendations before
Council took action.
Mayor Edgar replied that the Council, in approving staff's
recommendation, would only be approving the concept and the Parks

input to staff.

Councilmember Pontious said she supported implementing the
program as soon as possible.
