Mayor Edgar opened the Public Hearing at 7:18 p.m. Susan Tebo continued her report noting that LAFCO determined that the boundaries of the territory proposed to be annexed to the City were specifically described and specifically subject territory was found to be uninhabited and was assigned to the short -form designation: Annexation No. 149; that LAFCO found the City of Tustin was designated as the conducting authority and the legislative body; and the City should be liable for and pay all proper expenses incurred in conducting proceedings associated with the annexation. She explained the subject annexation was 7.826 acres which included 6 residences, 2 vacant lots, and 8 office buildings and was within the City of Tustin's sphere of influence.

Christine Shingleton, Director of Community Development, stated the Council had the authority to order the territory annexed because less than 50% of the property owners filed a protest. It was moved by Prescott, seconded by Kelly, to adopt the following Resolution No. 90-25 approving Annexation No. 149: RESOLUTION NO. 90-25 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TUSTIN, CALIFORNIA, ORDERING TERRITORY DESIGNATED AS "ANNEXATION 149 - NEWPORT/WARREN" BE ANNEXED TO THE CITY OF TUSTIN The motion carried 4-0. XII. NEW BUSINESS (AGENDA ORDER) 7. INITIATION OF ZONE CHANGE PROCEDURES FOR ANNEXATION 149 Council concurred to take this item out of agenda order to coincide with the adoption of Resolution No. 90-25. Mayor Edgar stated the City had committed to rezoning the subject area consistent with the North Tustin Specific Plan. It was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Edgar, to instruct staff to initiate zoning of Annexation No. 149 to maintain consistency with the North Tustin Specific Plan. Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy stated the Council was extremely concerned about this property, because it did abut a residential area and because of respect for the North Tustin Specific Plan, and had publicly stated that the Council would respect and maintain the existing overlay. She questioned if it could be matched exactly. Christine Shingleton, Director of Community Development, stated that the mechanism available was adoption of a Planned Community zoning designation and then adoption of, by reference, the development standards that were in the North Tustin Specific Plan as it related to the site. Mayor Edgar noted that during the interim period before final approval for the rezoning, the land had a Conditional Use Permit. In the Conditional Use Permit process, anything requested by a developer would be subject to Public Hearings and anyone who had concerns regarding specific development would be given the opportunity to address the Planning Commission and the Council.

Women Carol Bailard, representing American`Assoc. of Univ. Women Todd Ferguson, 14872 Alder Lane, Tustin Jim Potts, 2161 Marselina Street, Tustin Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy noted she had attempted to initiate recycling even before it was mandated by the State and had received more phone calls and mail concerning recycling in the last year than on any other subject. She stated it was economically feasible to recycle because the cost of dumping was escalating and she wanted the City to commit formally to a policy of buying recycled goods to become part of the economics of making recycling profitable; to set a beginning target date which would include finding a pilot area in the City; and to investigate the economic feasibility of cost to the residents or the City sharing the cost with the residential community. She felt the recycling program would be a three-step process and wanted to start before the State mandated recycling deadline. Mr. De Lacuesta, Great Western Reclamation representative, informed the Council that his company was prepared to implement a City program within three to four months. Mayor Edgar stated he was in complete support but expressed caution of proceeding too rapidly because the legislature was currently in the process of creating new laws. He stated a 60 - day time period would be adequate for staff to devise a plan towards achieving recycling in Tustin. It was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Prescott, to direct staff to submit a plan for the City to purchase recycled products. The motion carried 4-0. It was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Edgar, for staff to submit within 60 days a financial feasibility report after meeting with Great Western Reclamation.

RONALD HOESTEREY) Councilman Kelly requested the City obtain an impartial, outside decision -on paying former Councilman Hoesterey's legal fees. He said it had never been established in the correct forum whether or not Councilman Hoesterey was a legal Tustin resident and entitled to defense resources of the City. Councilman Prescott wanted the Council to request an impartial opinion from the Attorney General, Legislative Council or a court to determine whether Ronald Hoesterey was a Tustin Councilmember on November 20th and, if he was, the City should pay all legal fees Mayor Edgar stated that in compliance with the law a Councilperson had the authority to request and receive legal support. The suggested action was not appropriate because a legitimate bill, incurred in compliance with State law, was not to be paid. The Council would be directing staff to disobey the law and he did not have the authority to direct anyone to disobey the law. James Rourke, City Attorney, stated that the Attorney General and the State Legislature did not have control over who held office. When a person was elected to City Council, their election was certified by the Secretary of State and they held office by virtue of the fact that the people of the City elected them The courts were the only body that could make a determination that a Councilmember was not holding office legally. One such court action had been brought and was not successful Third party, independent opinions had no bearing on this matter. The following member of the audience addressed the Council regarding conduct of Councilmembers Kelly and Prescott: Carl Kasalek, 2352 Caper Tree, Tustin Council discussion followed regarding payment of the legal fees. James Rourke, City Attorney, restated that under the City's procedures, payment did not have to be approved by Council; it was within the budget and a legal bill. If the Council directed that it not be paid, that would be another matter. Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy agreed it was a legal bill that must be paid and said Mr. Hoesterey was sued by Councilmen Kelly and Prescott in their capacity as private citizens, not as Councilmembers. It was Mr. Hoesterey's decision not to counter sue. Council discussion followed regarding a recently taped telephone conversation between Councilman Kelly and the City Manager concerning Councilman Hoesterey's residency status on November 20, 1989; and rights of the Council to retain legal defense. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 9, 2-20-90 Mayor Edgar stated it was his interpretation that Ron Hoesterey was properly seated as a Counclmember on November 20, 1989, and he had the right to legal counsel because he was being sued. He advised staff to comply with the law and pay the legal fees as presented. 7. INITIATION OF ZONE CHANGE PROCEDURES FOR ANNEXATION 149 See Page 3 XIII. REPORTS 1.
