PROPOSED A~INEXATION NO. 141 - PROSPECT/VAIiDENBERG In response to area residents, Annexation No. 141 was initiated on March 16, 1987. The area is generally bounded by Prospect Avenue on the east, Orange County Flood Control Channel on the south, and the present City boundary on the north.' The area consists of 182 single-family residences, approximately 367 registered voters, with an estimated population of 69l. The staff report and recommendation were presented by the Community Development Director as contained in the inter-com dated July 20, 1987, prepared by the' Community Development Department.

He made the observation that the registered voter index needs to be updated. Frederick Wil-liam McCoy, 17646 Sherbrook, suspected that many resi- dents submitting written protests did so on the basis that doing so would give them the opportunity to vote on the matter. He stated he would prefer representation by a local elected official rather than a County official with widespread interests. Jerry Well, 1702 Summerville, addressed concerns regarding the impact of annexations on current City residents. He recommended that Council agendize for the August 3 meeting: 1) The creation of a procedure whereby separate public hearings would be held concerning the financial impact of each annexa- tion area. The hearings would be held after acceptance of the annexation petition, but before forwarding to LAFCO. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 2, 7-20-87 2) The creation of a master annexation plan that would include public hearings for City residents. Once completed, residents can then expect a more orderly and thoughtful approach to annexation. The Mayor and Mr. Well engaged in discussion on the matter. Councilman Hoesterey concurred with Mr. Weil's recommendations. Joseph Herzig, 1751 Rainbow Drive, spoke in opposition to the matter.

VIII.OLD BUSINESS --1. AIR TRA.CFIC SA.CETY & NOISE PROBLE~ FOR' OESCENDING FLIGHTS AT'JOHN ' WAYNE AZRPORT Staff requested that representatives from the FAA and Airport Department discuss airport operation and noise concerns of the City Council. The Community Development Director introduced Mr. George Rebella, John Wayne Airport Manager, who was present to respond to concerns regarding noise abatement procedures, noise testing, and noise levels which constitute a violation. Mr. Maag, FAA, was present to respond to concerns regarding proper descent routes, glide slope guidelines and proper flight altitudes. She stated each gentleman would make a presentation prior to responding to specific concerns. Councilman Kelly reiterated his request that presentations be limited to five minutes. However, the Mayor rebutted that he felt a thorough presentation was essential. Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy was informed that Mr. Jim Hayes was unavailable to attend this evening. George Rebella, John Wayne Airport Manager, responded to Councilman Kelly that in litigation with the City of Newport Beach, Air Cal, et al., the County took affirmative action to set aside the issues on EIR 508. He stated that it was a settlement with which the County was very satisfied and wanted to proceed. He stated for the record that Board policy for the last 14 years is that the airport will conform to California noise standards. He also stated for the record that it is Board/Airport policy to go above and beyond State mandates. An example of this is the Airport's effort to begin a noise moni- toring program in Tustin during the next 6-9 months at a cost between $115,000-250,000. The M-5 monitoring station is located directly in the ILS path on Beneta Way, approximately 1/2-mile north of City Hall and 5/8-mile from Kelly's Gift shop. In the last quarter, less than 5% of over 8,000 commercial flights regis- tered 65 SENEL or louder for longer than 10 seconds. Mr. Rebella asked for cooperation from Council and residents in doing noise testing. At Councilman Kelly's request, the Mayor invited public input from the audience. Michael Paul David, 445-1/2 West Sixth Street, reported several incidents of near mid-air collisions involving commercial and pri- vate aircraft. Connie Check, 335 West Third Street, assured Council that there is a noise problem in Tustin, and complained of low-flying aircraft. Rod MacLeod, 17781 Lucero Way, complained of noise levels and fuel dumping. Mr. Rebella responded to the Mayor that certification of the 757 has been denied until it meets a quieter approach noise reading of other aircraft. Councilman Kelly was ruled out of order by Mayor Edgar for disrupt- ing Mr. Rebella's presentation. Jay Maag, FAA, responded to Mayor Edgar's questions on various landing modes pilots use to land safely. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 6,7-20-87 Mr. Rebella provided information on events leading to the decommis- sioning of the VOR and the FAA and Airport's efforts to institute a new landing system. Michael P. David, 445-1/2 West Sixth Street~ shared observations on flights altitudes, stating he does amateur astronomy and can sight distances fairly accurately. Barbara Cox, 450-1/2 South "B" Street, expressed concern about safety from landing approaches in zero visibility. Christine Edwards, Assistant Chief of Operations at John Wayne Air- port (formerly Noise Abatement Officer), responded that only three airports in the western United States (San Francisco, LAX, and Ontario) are equipped to allow "zero-zero" landings. The equipment is extremely expensive. With two airports close-by with much longer runways and extensive equipment, it's highly unlikely Orange County woud ever receive or expend funds to install that kind of system to handle air traffic in poor weather. Robert Peterson, 17621 Miller Drive, disputed that flights over his house are lower than the required 1,000 feet. Betty Devitt, 17671 Miller Drive, also disputed that flights over her home are too low. Jim Plescett, Miller Drive, noted that there are no guarantees of · deviation in the flight path approach. Libby Pankey, 320 West Main, was given information on the different landing systems used by commercial and private aircraft. George Kyle, 14202 Galy, asked if there is a method of reporting pilots who violate approach altitudes. Jay Maag explained how altitudes are monitored at the E1 Toro Marine Base radar facility. E. Lucas Schmidt, 17601 Sherbrook Drive, expressed concern with aircraft elevation. However, he voiced confidence in what airport officials have stated on the matter. Donald LeJeune, 440 West Main Street, askea questions regarding maximum noise levels recorded. Christine Edwards and Mr. Rebella responded with statistics on Single Event Noise Exposure Levels (SENEL) around the M-5 monitor station. Arlene Moore, 17672 Orange Tree Lane, wondered why it will take six months to gather data. She suggested station M-5 may be misplaced, and volunteered her home for monitor placement. The Mayor felt there should be a method to record flight altitudes. Councilman Kelly felt it important that Tustin have its own sound monitoring equipment for placement at its own discretion, and initiate proper legal action. Mr. Rebella informed Councilman Hoesterey that sites have not yet been selected for monitor placement; requests have been received from Tustin area and North Tustin residents; preliminary site sur- veys will be made this week; and additional testing sites will be recommended. Hence, it will take 6-9 months to conduct an exten- sive study. Councilman Hoesterey encouraged working towards resolution of the problem to result in reducing SENEL, monitoring altitudes of approaching aircraft, dispersing traffic patterns, and replacing navigational aides. Mr. Rebella informed Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy that the Airport Enter- prise Fund collects revenues generated from commercial carrier operations, parking, fixed base operations, and leases/licenses issued at the airport, separate from the County General Fund. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 7, 7-20-87 At Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy's request, the following telephone numbers were provided so that residents can report problems: Noise Abatement - 755-6634 FAA Flight Standard District Office, Long Beach - (714) 821-6410 Residents should immediately provide information such as: exact time; number of engines, location of engines, etc. Mr. Rebella provided information on hours of operation, and responded that although many people believe they see fuel being dumped, it is actually a vapor trail coming off jet wings. Council discussion followed. It was moved b~/ Edgar, seconded by Kennedy, to direct staff to report back on: 1) The Cost to purchase, maintain, and operate sound monitoring equipment; 2) A mechanism to enable the City to monitor and record altitude of flights over Tustin; 3) Alternatives to reduce single event noise exposure levels (SENEL); and 4) Once the technical data is gathered, what legal options are avail able. Councilman Kelly expressed disappointment that legal action is being postponed. The motion carried 5-0. 101 RECESS - RECONVENED The Mayor recessed the meeting at 10:03 p.m. The meeting was recon- vened at 10:08 with all members present. 2. SUBSTANDARD PROPERTY & A1TRACTIVE NUISANCE, 17592*AJ4AGANSET A report on mechanisms available to the City to ensure continued maintenance of property once initial Code compli.ance is obtained. The staff report and recommendation were presented by the Community Development Director. She responded to Council questions. The Mayor requested that the matter be agendized for each meeting until the problem is resolved. John Dobak, 14702 Brookline Way, expressed concern regarding the fire hazard to surrounding residences from the substandard prop- erty. It was moved by Kennedy~ seconded by Kelly, to receive and file the inter-com dated July 20, 1987, prepared by the Community Develop- ment Department. Motion carried 5-0. 81 3. COLUI~US-TUSTIN PARKSITE CONCERNS A response to concerns raised by residents regarding litter and vehicle racing in the parking lot at subject parksite. Staff suggests the placement of curfew signing and Police enforce- ment to eliminate racing/speeding vehicles within the parking lot. Weekend park users will be monitored to pick up after themselves or lose the privilege of using the fields. It was moved by Edgar, seconded by Hoesterey, to receive and file the inter-corn dated July 14; 1987, prepared by the Public Works Department/Engineering Division. The motion carried 5-0. 77 4. REQUEST TO .REMOVE LA COLINA ROAD FROM THE COUNTY MASTER PLAN OF ARTERIAL HIGHWRYS A request by Council to have La Colina Road retained as a two-lane street. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 8, 7-20-87 As recommended in the inter-com dated July 20, 1987, prepared by the City Manager, it was moved by Edgar, seconded by Kelly, to authorize the Mayor to send a letter to the Orange County Board of Supervisors requesting that the County initiate proceedings to remove La Colina Road from the County Master Plan of Arterial High- ways (MPAH). Dessa Schroeder, on behalf of the North Tustin Municipal Advisory Council, stated that they are very pleased that Council is support- ing them in this endeavor.

Councilman Kelly expressed support for a special, non-scheduled audit authorized immediately, directed by Council itself. He thought it might be difficult to assemble a citizen team with the necessary competence, and such an audit might be confusing, diffi- cult, and counter-productive for staff to work with. The motion by Kelly, to request proposals from 'recognized auditing firms to conduct a special, limited audit at the specific direction of the City Council died for lack of a second. Council discussion/debate followed. Councilman Prescott clarified that he had suggested an audit com- mittee as proposed in the inter-corn dated July 20, 1987, prepared by the City Manager. The Finance Director responded to Mayor Pro Tem Kennedy that there is no concept of an embezzlement audit.. Embezzlement is detected by testing every single transaction. Audits are a test of finan- cial policies and procedures. He stated that the City is in the process of an audit. He recon)~ended that formation of the audit con~nittee be done in fall, ea-rly spring so that the committee is in place for the 1988 audit.

EAST TUSTIN OEVELOPMENT Mayor Edgar noted that the first single-family homes in East Tustin are now open for inspection. 81 9. NORTH TUSTIN SPECIFIC PLAN The Mayor noted that Council addressed a concern of Annexation areas 139 and 140 residents by authorizing a letter to the Orange County Board of Supervisors requesting removal of La Colina from its Master Plan of Arterial Highways (See page 8). He thought it also appropriate to request staff to report back on how Council can indicate formal support for the North Tustin Spe- cific Plan. Should any annexation receive voter approval, the agreements reached by the County and North Tustin Municipal Advi- sory Council in terms of development on Newport Avenue would have City acceptance and automatically be part of its plan. 81 XI I.
