Consent Calendar Item No. 18 - EIR 87-2, San Diego Pipeline Project -
Mayor Pr'o Tem Kennedy expressed concerns and raised questions relative
to subject project as summarized below:
Joe Whitelaw, Manager of Pipeline Construction, San Diego
Pipeline Company, identified the areas served by the pipeline
from Norwalk to Mission Valley in San Diego.
Senior Planner Davis stated that the EIR will be forwarded to
the Public Works Department for incorporation inl~o the Earth-
quake Preparedness Plan.
Senior Planner Davis responded that the State Fire Marshall 'is
the responsible agency for monitoring the pipeline.
Mr. Whitelaw stated that abandoned pipe will be removed com-
pletely except in areas through residential backyards, which
will be filled with nitrogen.
Arnold Moodie, California State Fire Marshal's office, con-
firmed that nitrogen is an i. nert gas and is safe to use in the
abandoned pipeline.
Mr. Whitelaw responded that San Diego Pipeline will reimburse
the City for any costs incurred in the project.
Underground water wells will not be affected in any way.
Staff is confident that the consultant acted independently in
preparing the EIR.
Mr. Moodie stated that as a result of the June 3 meeting, most
recommendations for safety and precautions have been imple-
mented. Mr. Whitelaw responded that the complaint from one
resident of gas odor was investigated the following day, and
no leaks in the line were found.
Mrj Whitelaw stated that after the pipeline break in November,
1986, the various agencies involved in clean-up submitted
billing to them and were paid.
In response to Councilman Hoesterey, Mr. Whitelaw explained the emer-
gency shutdown system.
Mr. Whitelaw responded to Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy that the railroad prop-
erty easement will be abandoned. Subject easement contains gaps which
no longer make it continuous and make it practically worthless.
Mr. Whitelaw informed Councilman Kelly that franchise fees will range
approximately $67,000 per year.
As recommended in the inter-com dated December 21, 1987, prepared by

onded by Prescott, to adopt the following:

which met on November 30, 1987.
The Director of Community and Administrative Services presented the
staff report and recommendation as contained in the inter-corn dated
December 16, 1987, prepared by the Community Services Department.
The Director responded to Mayor Edgar that the 171 parking space
figure was derived from typical usage in a gymnasium, without spec-
tators, plus four lighted ball diamonds. When Council decides to
fund the project, those numbers will again be reviewed very rig-
orously.
Councilman Hoesterey suggested that staff prepare .a recommendation
for budgeted phasing for Council review at the next budget ses-
sions, including any revenue sources available through Parks &
Recreation Acts and bonds, so that a good, coordinated plan is
developed to address and attack this particular function.
'Mayor Edgar was supportive. However, he thought it appropriate
that planning proceed, instead of waiting until all funding is
identi fled.
The Director reminded Council that funds for working drawings are
not available. Additionally, $8,000-$10,000 will be needed for a
drainage study as the very first step. The Mayor responded he is
prepared to recommend appropriating Redevelopment funds for same
because of the area. The Director noted that staff has been work-
ing on a report and at the January 4 meeting will request Council
set a workshop date that addresses funding and all needs in parks.
As recommended in subject inter-com by the Task Force, it was moved
by__Kennedy, seconded by Hoesterey., that the City Council:
1) Include solution of the acoustical and portable staging prob-
lems at Clifton C. Miller Community Center in the City Hall
remodel;
2) Complete the second stage of Columbus Tustin Park in two
phases:
a) Phase I - Parking Lot Expansion and Perimeter Landscaping;
however, drainage plans must be addressed prior.
b) Phase II - Gymnasium, located as shown on the new site plan
dated November 30, 1987.
3) Reinstate and consult the Task Force as part of design review
at such time when Phase 2b working drawings are done (Gymna-
sium).
The motion carried 5-0. 77

members at the rate of $100 per meeting, not to exceed $400 per

subject to the Brown Act, Open Meeting Law. The City Attorney
responded that the Council does not have the privilege of exempting
them from provtsion~ of the Brown Act.
Council discussion followed. There was consensus that compensation
per meeting be at the same level as the Planning Commission.
It was moved b)' Prescott, seconded by Kenned.y_, to adopt the follow-
.lng, with the stipulation that Committee me~bers be compensated at
the same rate as the Planning Commission, and that the third member
restde within the service area of the Tustin Water Service:

gested Council set a workshop to discuss the purpose of direction,
the target market, and then choose the best situation for that tar-
get market. Council may end up with a combination, i.e., brochures
to residential units, or a multimedia presentation for larger
groups and businesses.

bility.

Page 2, 12-21-87
Senior Planner Rubin responded, to Chairperson Pro Tern Kennedy that the
one variance staff anticipates is for placement of the shopping center
monument sign, which will have to be evaluated when filed.
Kelly expressed concern with the possibility of increased noise levels as
well as existing parking problems. Agency discussion followed.
Agency members Hoesterey and Kennedy debated eliminating the requirement
for parking lot planters. Mr. Hoesterey was favorable to replacing the
planters with tree wells or whatever will keep people from walking through
mud.
Mrs. Kennedy stated this is a very visual point in Tustin, and the planter
will be an aesthetic softener. She compromised by asking that small step-
ping stones be interspersed with greenery.
Chairman Edgar agreed with having visual attractiveness. However, if
ground cover is trampled and destroyed, it will lessen the aesthetics.
Mr. Edgar concurred that the planter should have easy access for those who
wish to walk across the lot.
A representative for the applicant requested clarification/amendment to
several conditions in Exhibit'A of Resolution No. RDA 87-19:
Item 1.8-F - Staff clarified that this would not preclude patrons
from making a left-turn from Newport Avenue into the alley.
Item 1.10 - The City Attorney suggested an mnendment to this con-
dition to read, "Prior to issuance of Certificate of Occupancy,
'or grading and foundation permits, as determined by the Director
of Community Development .... "
Item 2.4 - Staff clarified that the item addresses the appli-
cant's concern with the phrase "visible from the public right-
of-way or adjacent properties."

the developer when there is no staff member present to give the Agency any
guidance, and was uncomfortable with the situation.

to Item 1.10, and direct staff to work out with the developer any other
items of concern, and bring back any items that have not been resolved at
