OLD BUSINESS X. NEW BUSINESS 1. SAN DIEGO CREEK SEDIMENTATION CONTROL PROGRAM The staff report and recommendation were presented by the Director of Public Works/City Engineer as contained in his inter-com dated July 27, 1984, on subject item. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 3, 8-20-84 The City Manager noted that Cost estimates for construction do not include State and/or Federal grant funds, and any amounts from out- side sources, which is highly probable, would decrease Tustin's share. He added that the City should view the program in the con- text of overall flood control improvements in the community; i.e., if the Orange County Flood Control District is expected to fund future improvements (Peters Canyon Wash, for example), then the City should accept its share of this project so that a reciprocal arrangement is established. The Director of Public Works explained to Councilman Saltarelli how designated percentages by the five participating agencies were established and what the proposed program will accomplish. Councilman Saltarelli expressed concern that Tustin would risk being heavily burdened if one of the agencies were to withdraw from the program, when the benefits to Tustin are nebulous. The Direc- tor of Public Works explained that if any agency withdraws from the program, the Executive Committee could disband the plan, and a State-mandated program would be effected. The City Attorney stated that he reviewed the agreement and approved same. Following further discussion, it was moved by Edgar, seconded by Greinke, to authorize the Mayor to execute the Implementation Agreement for in-channel facilities along San Diego Creek between ~ .... the City of Tustin, the County of Orange, the Orange County Flood Control District, the City of Newport Beach, the City of Irvine, and the Irvine Company. The Director of Public Works added that if in the first step of the program the Executive Committee determines that inadequate funds are available, the program can be terminated. The Director veri- fied that the proposed payment schedule is based upon completion, ... and no advance payment is required. The motion carried 2-1, Saltarelli opposed, Hoesterey and Kennedy absent. 45; 84-33 2.

JOHN WAYNE AIRPORT EXPANSION, EIR 508 :' The staff report and recommendation-were presented by the Community Development Director as contained in the inter-com dated August 20, 1984, prepared by the Community Development Department, Council discussion followed, James Plesetz, 17731 Miller Drive, expressed concern regarding the newer aircraft which are reportedly quieter in take-off but noisier in landing, and stated that increasing the number of flights increases the chances of an aviation hazard/accident over Tustin. It was then moved by Edgar, seconded by Greinke, to authorize staff to address a letter to the County of Orange, Board of Supervisors, outlining the following concerns: 1) The potential impact of airport expansion on vehicular traffic through Tustin (via Red Hill Avenue). 2) Include in the analyses as a viable alternative the considera- tion of an off-shore airport with runways parallel to the coastline. 3) As a mitigating measure, move the Instrument Landing System (ILS) approach west of the Newport Freeway which would divert commercial flights over currently existing non-residential uses (industrialized area of Santa Ana). 4) Encourage moving general aviation flights to smaller local air- i. />ports which woul~s~ignificantly: reduce overflights. 5) Conduct additional noise studies that compare the single event noise impacts of the currently used MD-80 with the newer Class A aircraft (B-757, 767) and Class AA aircraft (B-737-300) on overflights over Tustin. 6) The potential impacts of single event and CNEL take-offs toward Tustin. 7) There is not a sufficient level of detail to consider MCAS, E1 Toro, or Santiago Airport as potential airport site alterna- tives. The City of Tustin can expect additional noise and traffic impacts, neither of which are sufficiently examined. 8) As a mitigating measure, examine the potential noise impact on overflights for varying types of descent patterns into the air- port. Develop an optimum descent pattern that ensures aircraft safety while reducing noise impact. Develop a procedure that ensures compliance, while making airlines responsible for the actions of their pilots. 9) The EIR does not examine fuel dumping procedures carried out by jet aircraft. The EIR should examine these procedures and what impact the additional flights may have on the Tustin area in this regard. 10) The City of Tustin Can support growth of the John Wayne Airport if it can be quantitatively shown that the additional flights can be mitigated to a level of insignificance. The City would define a level of insignificance as a single event noise level impact that is either the same or less than current overflight noise levels. Motion carried 3-0, Hoesterey and Kennedy. 101 CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 5, 8-20-84 5.
