Steve Rubin, Associate Planner Christine A. ~hingl~on, Director of Community Development SR: CAS: kbc Attachments: Memo from Kathy Weil MEMO TO: TUSTIN CITY COUNCILMEMBERS FROM: KATHY WEIL RE: OCTOBER 23, 1989 MEETING OF "CRAS" BOARD OF DIRECTORS Sam Rake, Irvine staff member appointed as watchdog for CRAS, gave a status report of the ongoing saga of Ken Delano, ICAA, SCAG and the multi-use of E1 Toro. Ken Delano's study of the feasibility of E1 Toro should be completed by October 30. The ICAA will see the final report by Nov 18, with SCAG receiving the report by Nov 21. With Sam attending all these meetings we should have a copy of Ken's report by the November meeting of CRAS. I think it's obvious what his conclusions will be, though he will probably take a circuitous route to conclude that E1 Toro is THE site. CRAS and the Marines at E1 Toro are preparing a rebuttal though, so the fight goes on. One interesting note - on "page 4" of Ken's initial report to $CAG (copy included) - the chart reveals Ken's motives. Under Exclusive Use (Practical) - those figures (according to Sam Rake) assume the complete closure of John Wayne airport. The same is true on page 5, under E1 Toro - All Civilian. Without interference from John Wayne the skys wouldn't be nearly so crowded with aircraft. The Marine Corps will hold offcomment until the final report gets to the Airport Working Coalition. . One side note: The City of Ir-vine sent a letter to SCAG and ICAA complaining that county funds are being spent to duplicate effort that has already been done. They've received no response. Irvine has. also requested that they be given the opportunity to review Mr. Delano's findings. If you'd like to get more information on this you might call Sam Rake, at the City of Irvine at 724-6381.' 818 West Seventh Street, 12th Floor · Los Angeles, California 90017 ~J (213) 236-1800 · FAX (213) 236-1825 ]~,~I.'UTFVIr.

The two sites have been considered along with number of others by the Airport Site Consensus Team. Since E1 Toro did not rank as a finalist ~ite for study in round III, SCAG needs to assess technical work on E1 Toro to determine whether the SCAG Executive Committee policy guidance for further study has been fulfilled. In that regard, $CAG would appreciate the assistance of the Inter-County Airport ~Authority in collecting E1 Toro technical data completed to date'. The technical ~nformation should be presented under separate cover and follow the attached outline for the E1 Toro joint-use and civilian-use alternatives. upon completion, please forward one copy of the E1 Toro material to Warren Ferrell at.._t_he SCAG offices and one copy for review to A1 Beli at t'~e Planning Center.

FROM: FOR: SUBJECT: PLANNING COMMISSION MANAGER OF PLANNING SERVICES PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING OF NOVEMBER 2, 1989 ACTIVITIES OF THE INTER-COUNTY AIRPORT AUTHORITY RELATING TO THE COMMERCIALIZATION OF MARINE CORPS AIR STATION (MCAS) EL TORO RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Receive staff report. 2. Commission comments. 3. Authorize the chairperson to sign the letter to the City Council. HISTORY: At the Planning Commission meeting of October 5, 1989, members of the Commission expressed concern about the efforts of the Inter-County Airport Authority (ICAA) to study the technics/feasibility of the commercial use of Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) E1 Toro. The Commission was particularly concerned that the study is to be conducted by ICAA Executive Director Ken Delino who is also Assistant to the City Manager for the City of Newport Beach. The Commission requested that staff prepare a draft letter to be sent to the City Council expressing its concerns. ANALYSIS: Staff has preparecl~a draft letter to be sent to the City Council (Attachment 1). The letter expresses the Planning Commission's concerns that Mr. Ken Delino is an inappro- priate choice to conduct the study due to the conflict of interest between his position with the City of Newport Beach and as Executive Director of the Inter-County Airport Authority. Mr. Delino's presentation to the California Commission on Aviation and Airports in September 1988, in which he used outdated graphics, is cited as an example. The letter recommends that the City Council closely monitor the efforts of the ICAA and take the~ appropriate action to limit impacts on the City's strategy for the~ commercialization of MCAS E1 Toro. CONCLUSION: ' Staff recommends that the planning Commission authorize the chairperson to sign the letter to the City Council expressing its concerns.

The work is to be done by ICAA Executive Director Ken Delino. -I would like to'make you aware of · the Planning Commission's 'concerns about this study so that you may take the appropriate action. As-you are aware, Mr. Delino is employed as the Assistant to the City Manager of the City of Newport Beach. As the City of Newport Beach favors the commercial use of MCAS E1 Toro, this is a clear conflict of interest with his position as' the Executive · . Director of an impartial organization such as the ICAA. · Mr. Delino's past actions have demonstrated bias favoring the commercial use of MCAS E1 Toro. For example, in September 1988, Mr. Delino made a presentation to the California Commission on Aviation and Airports advocating the commercial use of the facility. Furthermore, in making his presentation, Mr. Delino used outdated maps and graphics to make the site- appear more ATTACHMENT 1 NOV 0 I 1989 COMMUNITY DEVLEO~MENT feasible. This bias could si~ilari~ {~luenc~ the information collected and the results of the ICAA study in favor of the commercial use of E1 Toro. The City Council should be aware of the current activities of the ICAA and Ken Delino. The Planning Commission recommends that these, activities be'closely monitored and the appropriate action taken to limit the potential negative impacts on ~he city of Irvine's strategy for the commercialization of MCAS E1 Toro.
