Robert Ledendecker, Director of Public Works, reported that
Crestmark Real Estate and Investments requested the City waive
the requirement to construct a sidewalk in the public right-
of-way adjacent to their building located at 2512-2522
Chambers Road. At the August 3, 1992 Council meeting, this
item was continued and upon Council's request, staff
investigated the parkway landscaping and learned that sod,
flower cover, and ground cover adjacent the driveways had been
replaced several months ago, and no trees would require
removal.
The following member of the audience spoke in opposition to
the sidewalk requirement policy:
Jerold Dworkin, Silicon Systems representative
Mayor Pro Tem Potts said he favored placing a moratorium on
the sidewalk requirement within the industrial areas for a
designated period of time or until the recession was resolved.
Councilmember Saltarelli stated creation of an assessment
district was an alternative to raise revenue for sidewalk
construction; however, he believed staff should study this
issue in greater detail. He said he was concerned with
companies who had already installed sidewalks being assessed
fairly; encouraged businesses to examine sidewalk installation
from a liability standpoint; questioned if CC&Rs exist for
that area; and cautioned that implementing an assessment
district should be done carefully.
Mayor Pontious requested additional information regarding
formation of an assessment district.
Mayor Pro Tem Potts' motion to place a moratorium on the
sidewalk requirement within the industrial areas until the
recession was resolved died for lack of a second.
William Huston, City Manager, recommended that if the Council
placed a moratorium on the sidewalk requirement, to defer
instead of waive dedication requirements. He stated staff
would submit a report in 120 days addressing formation of an
assessment district.
Councilmember Saltarelli agreed that the sidewalk requirement
should not.be eliminated because of the safety factor.

on establishment of an assessment district.

report was submitted.

study; circulation/traffic impacts; widening of Red Hill
Avenue; MOU with the City of Irvine; and revisions to the
project. She stated that comments on the third DEIR were due
on September 21, 1992 and the City had drafted a memo to the
City of Irvine addressing the City's concerns regarding the
project. She further stated that because City of Irvine staff
had been unresponsive to concerns raised by staff, she
believed a meeting between members of the councils would be
beneficial.
Councilmember Thomas said that the City of Irvine resistance
to the City's concerns was caused by their financial
shortfalls and the inability to obtain money for the project.
William Huston, City Manager, suggested that designation of
a Council committee should be formed immediately due to time
constraints.
Council/staff discussion followed regarding whether -the other
cities should be invited to join the committee.
Councilmember Saltarelli said he supported moving quickly on
this matter before the Growth Management Area funds were spent
on the SR -55 freeway overpasses.
Councilmember Puckett stated that in the past the City and the
City of Irvine had met to resolve problems and he was
supportive of forming a committee on this issue.
Mayor Pro Tem Potts noted his concerns regarding Red Hill
widening; increased passenger train crossing on Red Hill
Avenue; construction of a bridge over Tustin Ranch; Newport
Avenue undercrossing; and future emergency traffic through the
City..
