McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987 required that the Defense Department and other federal agencies give homeless assistance top priority consideration over other uses for transfer of surplus federally owned buildings or land which were determined to be suitable and available, and which were not needed by another federal agency, to accommodate the needs of the homeless. She stated the property may be leased or transferred Under a grant deed to service providers including non-profit homeless providers, state and local governmental agencies, and other housing agencies. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 6, 8-1-94 She said there were strict federal guidelines under which an applicant may qualify for operation and transfer of property as a homeless provider and those criteria included the financial ability of an operator: to maintain transferred property; to operate programs; to have adequate insurance; to document the need for a program; and the applicant's experience in operating similar programs. She stated recent efforts had occurred at the national level to modify the McKinney Act, primarily to be guided by a local community reuse plan. The House of Representatives adopted an amendment to the McKinney Act, placing part of the responsibility for compliance or accommodation of the homeless into the community's hands. She summarized the screening process the Department of Navy and Marine Corps would follow including: advertising base closure property to determine whether another federal department or military branch wished to use a portion of a closing facility; conducting a workshop for homeless providers to describe available property; notification of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) describing what property was available; publishing a notice of availability of such properties in the Federal Register; timeline for homeless providers to express interest in properties; review of applications by Health and Human Services (HHS); HHS recommendations for transfer submitted to the Secretary of the Navy to assign property to HHS fDr conveyance; and subsequent to McKinney screening, the local Reuse Authority could indicate an interest in the transfer of portions of the base not requested by either federal agencies or the homeless. She stated the City had met with the O~ange County Homeless Services Coalition to achieve a consensus on an overall strategy regarding the McKinney Act. She noted that meetings had ceased the past few months because of sSgnificant disparities between what staff believed to be the need for balance in the Reuse Plan and a fair share accommodation for the homeless.

John Korff, Korff Enterprises ROLLER HOCKEY POTENTIAL AT COLUMBUS TUSTIN PARK Christine Shingleton, Assistant City Manager, reported that at the July 5, 1994 meeting, Council requested alternate designs for location of a roller hockey facility at Columbus Tustin Park. She stated that roller hockey facilities could not be developed on the park site without a cooperative agreement and modification of the joint use agreement with the Tustin Unified School District. She said upon Council approval of a roller hockey site alternative, the next step would be to reach agreement with the school district. Council/staff discussion followed regarding between the school district and the City. Mayor Pro Tem Potts stated he supported a joint agreement Alternative III; CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 8, 8-1-94 19. encouraged the school district to work with staff on a roller hockey site at Columbus Tustin Park; believed that providing a roller hockey site would benefit the community's youth; and noted that Dr. Andrews preferred Alternative III because it was the site furthest away from the school. Mayor Saltarelli stated his support for Alternative III and also encouraged the school district to work with staff to provide a site for roller hockey. Councilmember Worley stated she supported Alternative III because of its location away from the school; and noted Dr. Andrews' support of Alternative III and his concerns of possible graffiti to the school if the hockey site was located closer to school grounds.

Motion carried 5-0. The following members of the audience spoke in favor of locating a roller hockey rink in Tustin: Terri Neal, Parks and Recreation Commissioner Steve Horowitz, HHS Recreation Services president 2196 - OPTIONS ON MUNICIPAL ELECTION DATE8 Councilmember Thomas reported that the State changed the primary election date to March in 1996 on a trial basis and he recommended changing the city's General Municipal Election to coincide with the State primary. He stated the change would save the City money CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 9, 8-1-94 and take advantage of increased voter turnout. He said that if the State decided to return to the June primary date in 1998, the City should continue to consolidate the municipal election with the State primary election. Mayor Pro Tem Potts stated that the State changing the primary election date to March on a trial basis was confusing and he said that until the State determined a permanent primary date, he supported the City's General Municipal Election remaining in April. Councilmember Worley stated she supported moving the City's election to March which would avoid having two elections two weeks apart. She said that the City should keep the municipal election date consolidated with the State. Mayor Pro Tem Potts requested that the public be allowed to comment on this item before Council took action; stated AB 2196 was confusing; and because of the increased amount of money that could be collected for candidate,s campaigns, he was opposed to election consolidation. Mayor Saltarelli stated that November elections provided the best voter turnout, but he said he supported moving the municipal election to March because it would be a hardship on voters to vote in the State primary in March and a City election in April. He noted that the date change would save the City approximately $20,000.00. Councilmember Thomas stated that the City could try conducting the municipal election in March until 1998 and if the State moved their primary date after 1998, the City could decide at that time to remain consolidated with the State or have a separate City election. It was moved by Thomas, seconded by Worley, to move the date of the City's General Municipal Election to the date of the statewide direct primary which in 1996 will be held in March. The following member of the ~udience requested Council allow public input at a future meeting; and supported a November election date: Alex Carrassi, 17961 Arbolata, Santa Ana Mayor Potts and Councilmember Doyle requested allowing the public to discuss this issue at a future Council meeting. Lois Jeffrey, Interim City Attorney, stated that an ordinance would be presented at a future Council meeting proposing the election date change and the public would have an opportunity to discuss the issue at that time. As an amended motion, it was moved by Thomas, seconded by Worle¥, to introduce an ordinance at a future Council meeting changing the date of the City's General Municipal Election to the date of the CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 10, 8-1-94 statewide direct primary which in 1996 will be held in March. Amended motion carried 5-0. RECESS - The meeting was recessed at 8:55 p.m. and reconvened at 9:05 p.m. 20. ORDINANCE BANNING GIFTS OF $250 OR MORE Mayor Pro Tem Potts requested that because of continued citizen interest and questions on the subject, this item be continued to the August 15, 1994 Council meeting. Councilmember Doyle requested the County of Orange's ordinance be incorporated into the city's ordinance. William Huston, city Manager, clarified that the first draft of the proposed ordinance had been the County of Orange's ordinance verbatim, and that this ordinance was a third draft. Council discussion followed regarding making additional changes to the proposed ordinance; and re-visiting the County of Orange's ordinance. Councilmember Worley stated she did not support discussing the County of Orange's ordinance again. She stated she had received mail supporting the County of Orange's ordinance; she believed that the County's ordinance was too restrictive and could prevent Council's attendance at certain events, lunches, or dinners; the proposed ordinance was similar to restrictions on State officers; she stated an elected official should not have to use their own assets when discussing city business; she was opposed to forcing Councilmembers to pay for every meal, seminar or conference where City business would be discussed; and a more restrictive ordinance was an overreaction and would make Council's job too difficult. Councilmember Thomas noted that Council had agreed upon the changes incorporated in the proposed ordinance unanimously at a past meeting. He stated he supported banning gifts of $250.00 or more. It was moved by Worle¥, seconded by Thomas, to approve the following Ordinance No. 1129 banning the acceptance of gifts by city officers and Designated Employees aggregating $250.00 or more: ORDINANCE NO.

M~otion car~__ried 3-~, Potts, Doyle opposed. Mayor Pro Tem Potts stated that a restrictive gift ban ordinance would help prevent a Council/Commissioner from being persuaded by expensive gifts, dinners, or campaign donations. He stated the $175.00 a month Council expense money was more than adequate to COver business lunches or meet~ng~ and encouraged Council to conduct business meetings in their City Hall offlces. He said he ~i~l that a future Council would enact a stricter gift ban Council discussion followed regarding Council salaries had not been increased for Several years; elected positions should not reguire Councilmembers to spend their discussing City business; a str' own money for meetings when Council,s attendance at ~ .... lct~r ordinance could a~-~ conduct meetings in Council offices rather than meeting for lunch =~, uF=~xngs~ or seminars; or dinner; and Council should be available to residents/applicants to discuss matters impacting the City and lunch/dinner meetings allowed time necessary to spend on important issues.

Councilmember Thomas said that the Audit Committee put the independent audit out for bid as a standing practice and that they had requested automatic rotation of the auditors.
