Consent Calendar Item No. ;6 - Rejection of Claim 88-11 (Carmen Barnett)
Councilman Kelly was concerned about claims for tree damages in
general. He specifically referred to the th'tee eucalyptus trees in
front of the McCharles House. It had been recommended hy staff,
approximately 3 years ago, that 'the trees be removed. The City Council
at that time overturned the recommendation. His concern now was for
the current City Council's legal responsibility if those trees should
cause damage on private property.

Councilmah Edgar expected- that this agreement would provide an

VIII. OU) BUSINESS
AIRPORT STATUS REPORT - JWA, JOINT USE/EL TO~O, AIRPORT SITE
COALITION
Christine Shingleton, Director of Community Development, indicated
that the staff report, in addition to the JWA Noise Monitoring
Program, also contains status reports on other activities that
impact air traffic in the region. These include activity reports
on meetings of "Coalition for a Responsible Airport Solution
{CRAS)" which is focused on opposing joint use of MCAS E1 Toro and
the Airport Site Coalition (ASC) whose program is to find a
solution by consensus for an additional airport site or sites to
service Orange County. This additional information will be
included in future status reports to Council.
Mayor Pro Tim Kennedy felt that is was necessary to have a City
representative attend meetings of both CRAS and ASC. She was
disappointed that the ASC meetings were held on Saturdays and asked
if it would be influential to request that the meetings he held
during regular business hours.
Christine Shingleton indicated that ASC had requested input for a
convenient meeting ~chedule because of displeasure expressed by
others regarding the Saturday meeting time. She felt it would be
very effective to direct a letter to ASC requesting evening
meetings as opposed to Saturdays.
It was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Edgar, that {1} the City send
a representative to all CRAS and ASC meetings, {2) a letter be
forwarded to ASC requesting the meeting schedule be changed from
Saturdays to weekday evenings, (3) the City support the model
resolution submitted for adoption by CRAS and (4) receive and file
subject report. The motion carried 5-0.
2. THE ROLE OF THE CITY IN ENFORCING CC&R'S
Christine Shingleton, Director of Community 'Development, stated
that the Planning Commission,. over the past several months, had
discussed the City's role related to Covenants, Conditions and
Restrictions. Under the Planning Commission's revised language,
the City would be included as a party to CC&R's for enforcement of
only those provisions in which the City has an interest, such as
maintenance and nuisance provisions. The City would also not be
obligated to enforce the CC&R's, which is a new provision. She
also pointed out that the City has a prior practice of involvement
in enforcement of CC&R's. The Planning Co~ission is requesting
'clarification and direction from the Council as to the role of the
City.
Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy felt that the City should not enforce CC&R's,
except when the health and Safety aspect becomes an issue or when
it appears that a financial plan is weak. She was interested in
hearing-input from Kathy or Jerry Well.
Jerry Well, 1702 Summerville Ave., Tustin, felt the concept was
that the Associations are responsible for maintaining the property
values of the residents in their area. The City becomes involved
when there is a problem with a defunct Association or Association
leadership that does not understand their responsibilities. The
concept on which the Planning Comnission and staff worked was how
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES
~age 7, 6-6-88
to force the Associations to meet their responsibilities. He felt
~he document before Council was a reasonable compromise of inde-
pendence for Associations and protection of the City's interests
that areas do not become blighted due to lack of Association
enforcement.
Christine Shingleton added that the standard language, included for
future projects, stipulates that any changes to the Association's
obligation for maintenance of common areas would be an item within
the discretion of the City's ability to review. That language is
included in the revision to protect the City's interest in common
areas.
Mayor Hoesterey stated he could foresee the possibility of an asso-
ciation becoming very weak and neglecting enforcement. There may
be a benefit to at least have the City as a member of that asso-
ciation.
Jerry Well suggested adding language at the beginning of the docu-
ment to the effect..."because of the City's interest and responsi-
bility in maintaining overall property value and health and safety
of the area, the City hereby does state these rules...". Currently
there are no such stated concerns and if the City went to court, he
suspected that it would have to first establish, concerns before the
City could enforce them.
Councilman Kelly stated his disapproval of any City involvement in
CC&R ' s.
Mayor Hoesterey, in response, stated that associations have certain
responsibilities for the maintenance of cmnmon areas. The City
wants to insure that those responsibilities are carried out, not
only for the benefit of that association, but for the community as
a whole. Should associations decide not to maintain common areas,
it could become a public health hazard.
[t was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Edgar, that staff be directed
to submit to the Pta'n~'ing. Con~n'ission for approval the added
appropriate language for modification of the CC&R's document. The
motion.l carried 4-1, Kelly opposed. :
3. LE.g6TH OF TERN FOR AUDIT COIglITTEE I~MBERS
Mayor Hoesterey, while flipping a coin, asked derry Well to call
heads or tails. Mr. Weil lost the toss and it was determined that
Frank Greinke. would serve the Z-year term and derry Weil would
serve the 1-year term.
Mayor Hoesterey felt the alternate should also serve a .1-year term
allowing the Council the opportunity for reappointment at the end
Of each term.
It was moved by Edgar, seconded by Kennedy, that the alternate
serve a 1-year term.
Jerry Weil asked if the alternate could serve a 2-year term to
increase the value and stability of the committee.
After further Council discussion, the motion carried 4-1, Kelly
absent.
IX. NEW BUSINESS
1. EAST llJSTIN ASS£SSI~ DISTRICT NO. 86-2
Robert Ledendecker, Public Works Director, reported the jurisdic-
tions and boundaries of Assessment District No. 86-2. Each juris-
diction is required to adopt a Resolution which consents to making
assessments within their particular boundary. The City of Orange
has completed their requirement and it is expected that the
CITY~ COUNCIL MINUTES

e
Orange County Board of Supervisors will adopt their resolution of
jurisdiction at their meeting scheduled for June 7, 1988. Staff
presented, for review, the three resolutions for the City of Tustin
which will require future action at a special meeting. Staff
requested the meeting be scheduled sometime between the 8th and
13th Of June. He gave a brief overview of each resolution.
Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy expressed her concern about the future
residents of the area who will be burdened with this assessment,
particularly the Jamboree Road segment. She wanted to know if
those outside of the City, such as the City and County of Orange,
will pay their fair share and, if so, in what dollar amount.
Gary Dysart, Willdan Engineering, indicated that the City of Orange
and the County of Orange will be assessed approximately $16.4
million out of the total $82 million. The East Tustin residents
wil 1 be assessed the dl fference.
Mayor Hoesterey also voiced his concerns regarding the areas of
benefit vs. the areas of assessment, The Council felt that the
City of Tustin was taking an undue burden because the area of
benefit also included the Cittes of Costa Mesa, Santa Aha, and
Newport Beach. The majority of this burden being placed on the new
residents of Tustin may not be the most equitable way of assigning
these assessments. The City feels trapped from a standpoint of
absorbing this entire burden when the area of benefit is greater.
He asked what could be done to spread this burden out.
Gary Dysart answered that the remaining $66 million is not just rot
Jamboree Road, there are significant othec public improvements that
are included in the total $82 m.illion. Those include Irvine Blvd.,
Tustin Ranch Road and other improvements that are openift~j that area
of Tustin to development.
Mayor Pro Tern Kennedy wanted to know if it was possible to receive
assistance from the State to lift the burden on area residents or
was it too late.
William Huston, City Manager, responded that if the Jamboree Road
project is not completed there will not be a Tustin Ranch project.
Without Tustin Ranch you cannot pay for the road because the money
is not there, that is the economic reality of development today.
The State is phasing the wide,lng of I-5 over a period of years
because they do not have the money. If the City waits for the
funds to accumulate, we are virtually talking about closing down
the Tustin Ranch project. The alternative is to let the cost of
the road come from the cost of the housing, but then you are asking
a resident to borrow money at a much higher rate then if they pay
for it through an assessment district. If you accept the fact that
to build the road the residents will have to pay for it, then the
most economic way is the assessment district.
Council concurred to take action on this item on June 13 1988, at
~:30 p.m. '
POLICY FOR TIUU~SCRIPTS OF COUNCIL ~IEE-TINGS
It was moved by Edgar, seconded by Kennedy, that this it~n be continued
to the june 20, 1988, meeting. The motion carried 5-0.
Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy stated that she had only asked that tapes be made
available to the public, rather than transcribe them.
William Huston, City Manager, stated that the City Attorney was
reviewing the matter because of the State laws involved.
REQUEST FOR HANDICAPPED PARKING STALL
Councilman Prescott asked what would prevent multiple requests such as
this one from occurring in the future.
-qITY COUNCIL MINUTES
)ge 9, 6-6-88
Xe
Robert Ledendecker, Public Works Director, stated that other
requests- had been received. Staff had exercised the option under
current traffic code to implement handicapped parking stalls where a
defined need had been establishe~ and removed the stall when that
need no longer existed.
Mayor Hoesterey asked if Consolidated Reproductions had designated
handicapped parking on site and felt that the problem was being
moved to the City streets rather than being the responsiblity of the
employer. He wanted that issue addressed before approving the
handicapped parking on the street.
After further discussion, it was moved by Kennedy, seconded by
Hoesterey., that this item be continued at the June 20, 1988, meeting
and directed Mr. Ledendecker to discuss the matter with Mrs. Davies
regarding the effect on her employment. The motion carried 5-0°

Item No. 5 - Use Permit 87-29 - Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy asked
Christine Shingleton, Director of Community Development, for a brief
report on the solution of the Steelcase situation and if the City
had been protected.
Christine Shingleton, in response, stated that several months ago
Steelcase applied for a Conditional Use Permit for two above-ground
tanks, one for xylene sol vent and the other for water-soluble
acrylic resin. After concerns stated by the Fi re Department,
Steelcase revised their proposal and significantly addressed all of
the Fire Department's public health and safety concerns. Steelcase
will be installing one underground tank, which will be in a concrete
vault with complete fire suppression and venting. The second tank
will be an above-ground tank, which will be completely enclosed hy a
nonexplosive containment building. With these changes, the Fire
Department has recommended approval of the project to the Planning
Commi ssi on.
It was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Edgar, to ratify Item No. 5 of

3. POLICE ~PA~TMENT PHONE RECORDING EQUIPMENT
Councilman Prescott asked Fred Wakefield, Acting Chief of Police;
how long recording equipment tapes are kept for evidenttary
purposes. .
Captain Wakefield replied that, as a matter of routine, tapes are
kept 100 days. For evidentiary purposes they. are. kept as long
as needed. '
Councilman Prescott suggested that in this particular case, the
tape be kept for a longer period of time. In the event of a
possible lawsuit, damages could then be claimed from the tape
company. He asked for Council concurrence to save the tape for a
couple of years.
Captain Wakefield was unsure if the tape was in possession. There
was no recording on the tape by the time the defect was determined.
Mayor Hoesterey directed that if the tape is still in possession
that it be kept and a status report be submitted. Council
concurred.
