Re: June 26th meeting of The Coalition for Responsible Airport Solu-
tions (CRAS)
1) As expected I was appointed to the Board of Directors of CRAS.
2) The Board discussed whether or not Tustin had passed a resolution
opposing AB1830. I informed them that the Tustin Council-had taken
that action at their June 19th meeting. Terri Mehrguth (public
relations) verified that she was in position of a letter from Tustin
regarding this.
3) There will be a hearing before the State Transportation Committee,
on July 18th, on AB1830, in Sacramento. The Sacramento lobbyist that
CRAS has been working with suggested that Marion Bergeson, one of the
authors of the bill, and a member of the Transportation committee, be
targeted for a massive letter writing campaign from Leisure World.
The Board felt that perhaps they could persuade Marion to withdraw the
bill , at least until the Airport Site Coalition (ASC) completes its
study, thus possibly eliminating duplication of study effort. Also
considering Marion is thinking of running for Lt. Governor, the
campaign would serve to remind her about how unpopular the use of E1
Toro is.
4) CRAS is looking for more support from local Homeowners groups - both
physically and financially. I will work with Terri Mehrguth, to try to
drum up interest here in Tustin, assuming this meets with Council's
approval.
5) There were questions about noise monitoring procedures as they
relate to this project. I will check with our planning staff to get the
name of the company we used during the public hearings on the Auto
Cente~,'-~2000 was allocated for a consultant.
6) Next regular Board meeflng will be July 24, 1989, in the Leisure
World Administration Building.
I want to thank you for appointing me as Tustin's representative to
CRAS. It's an interesting project and I think I can be of some value
to the committee. Please let me know if there is any special guidance
or direction you want me to pursue. In the meantime I'll maintain
close contact with Steve Ruben.
