APPROVAL OF ~ It was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Edgar, to approve the minutes of the April 5, 1982, regular meeting. Carried 5-0. 4. p~aT~O~ B~ ~ANCIAL The Executive Director introduced Mr. Calvin Hollis, President of Katz, Hollis, Coren & Associates, Inc., Los Angeles, retained by the Redevelop- ment Agency for the purpose of preparing a financial plan. Mr. Hollis made a presentation on the proposal authorized by the Agency and the methodology the firm will use in preparing a financial strategy. Mr. Hollls responded to Mr. Edgar that the consulting firm will provide financing alternatives to the Agency. 5. A~C~ COnCErNS In reference to the Downtown Landscape & Improvement Plan, Mr. Saltarelli commented that he again visited Yorba Llnda's downtown area which is simi- lar to what was proposed by the consultant. He stated he is more con- vinced than ever that due to heavier traffic ~vements and differences in areas and size, Tustln should not follow the same plan. The Community Development Director responded that the Agency's direction was quite specific on the actual design of physical amenities and that neither traf- fic flow nor parking in the area were to be impinged upon. That afrectlon called for a more straightforward engineering proposal where decorative work is being done on existing parkways and sidewalks, but not encroaching on the street right-of-way. The project is on schedule for plans and specifications to be ready for the May 17 Agency meeting. It was moved by Saltarelli, seconded by Hoesterey, to adjourn at 3:35 p.m. to the next regular meeting on May 3, 1982. Carried 5-0.

GA~E A~CADES - ORDINANCE NO. 870 As recommended by the Community Development Director in his report dated April 19, 1981, it was moved by Hoesterey, seconded by Saltarelli, to continue to the May 3, 1982, meeting consid- eration of the following ordinance: ORDINANCE NO. 870 - An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of Tustin, California, AMENDING THE TUSTIN CITY CODE PERTAINING TO GAME ARCADES The Mayor asked if anyone was present to speak on the matter. Dave Patterson, Sgt. Pepperoni's Pizza Store, 651 E. First Street, stated that at Council's request he had submitted writ- ten co~ents in his letter dated April 15, 1982, and was present today to answer any questions or elaborate further. The Co--unity Development Director and City Attorney indicated staff would respond to Mr. Patterson's letter at the May 3 meet- ing. Mr. Patterson responded to Councilwoman Kennedy pertaining to research he conducted and how he obtained his figures. Mr. Patterson continued that if the games are incidental to the main business, then the entrepreneur will make sure they don't become a burden to his own business. Councilman Edgar stated that Mr. Patterson's co~ents were very wisely presented. There were no other speakers on the matter. The motion carried 5-0. 81 The Co--unity Development Director noted that the copies of the proposed ordinance will be available in his department the Wednesday prior to the May 3 meeting. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 2, 4-19-82 V · PUBLIC CO.CEOS TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT ~D "' ,.T. & ~ A~K~ES Kathy Well, 1702 Summmerville, Civic Liaison for Tustin Meadows Community Association, reported that at the April meeting of the Association Board of Directors, a resolution was passed support- ing installation of a new three-way traffic signal at Red Hill and Walnut which would permit left-hand turns while holding opposing traffic. Ms. Weil stated the Association is concerned that because of the location of Mr. Nisson's proper~y and the shortage of City funds, this project may get buried in the budget. ~sldential streets are being burdened with increased traffic as a result of people cutting through Tustln Meadows to reach Sycamore. MS. Well stated that the Association would like to see something done to alleviate the problem and is willing to assist staff. Tn. Director of Public Works responded that at the April 5 meet- ing staff had indicated they would come back with a report regarding the intersection. The data has been obtained and is now being compiled and will be available at the May 3 meeting with specific reco~endations · The Mayor suggested that Ms. Well meet with staff to review subject report prior to the May 3 meeting. 94 2. PO~I~CAL SIGNS Helen Edgar,' 13622 Loretta Drive, stated that although it has been one week since the election, political signs are still visible throughout the City. She reported that she has received three requests from residents that a setback requirement be enforced for political signs. Co%~%ctlman Hoesterey commented that the political sign require- ments should once again be reviewed and reclarified. Also, there should be clear delineation as to who is responsible for enforcing election laws and what the penalties are for viola- tions of those laws. He recou~aended that this matter be referred to staff. Council concurred. 93 VI. CO~T ~A~ It was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Edgar, to approve the entire Consent Calendar. Carried 5-0. 1.

Carried 5-0. 50 325 SO~H "C' ST~gET The Co~unlty Development Director presented the staff report and recom-_ndation. As reco~nended by the C~unlty Development Depart~nt in the report dated April 19, 1982, it was moved by Kennedy that the agreement between Mr. Kelly and the City be extended for a period of 120 days. As planning and construction continue, the Co,unity Development Director shall provide a written progress report to the City Council at the second meet- ing of each month. The Council will then be able to judge if work is progressing in a satisfactory manner. The motion died for lack of a second. It was then moved by Saltarelli, seconded by Edgar, that if the project is not completed by May 1, 1982, that the bond be revoked and the City Attorney be directed to take whatever action is necessary to bring the property into full compliance. The City Attorney responded to Councilwoman Kennedy that if the property would not be brought into conformity by May 1, then staff would be required to take legal action against the prop- erty to enjoin its occupancy and use until it is brought into conformity with the Code. Following further Council discussion, the motion carried 4-1, Kennedy opposed. 81 2= ORANGE (X)~NT~' ~ANSIT DISTINCT (OC~D) ~m~ FEA~IBILIT~ -~--i~u~' In addition to his report dated April 14, 1982, the Director of Public Works added that staff received from OCTD a letter and scope of work that they propose to have their consultant perform under. The letter indicates there is no major change in the n,~her of routes or level of service contemplated at this time. Whatever the study would dictate the needs to be, the City would at that time have control to either accept or reject same if the amount of b~ses or service is going to be increased. Secondly, OCTD did not specifically answer with any concern of locating either outside the City or in another specific location, i.e., industrial area or First Street in Santa And. In discussion CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 4, 4-19-82 with OCTD, it was indicated that if an area outside the City is studied, then the agreement would be between such other Agency and OCTD, and the City would not participate at that time. Councilman Salter.iii voiced his objection to a transportation center in Tustin. It was moved b~ Salter.iii, seconded by Kennedy, to not enter into the Transit Center Feasibility Study Agreement and inform OCTD that under no circumstances is the City of Tustin interested in having a transportation center located in the City. Councilman Hoesterey expressed his suppor~ of the motion. Mayor Sharp commented he had voiced his feelings on the matter at the April $ meeting. Re motion carried 4-1, Sharp opposed. (14992 Newport Avenue) The Community Develola~ent Director presented the staff report and recommended that it be referred to the City Attorney for a future repor~ back to the Council. Rick Horton, President of Californian Tenants' Association, brought the following areas of major concern to Council's atten- tion for inclusion in the City Attorney's report: a. Page 2, Tenants Eligibility Requirements, first paragraph Requested the City Attorney define "tenants." Page 3, Eligibility Disqualification - The Association is opposed to this entire section, as the City Ordinance has already defined eligibility. Ce Page 6, Rent Raises - The City Council and City Ordinance have made it clear there would be no rent raises, yet this section asks for rent raises. It was then moved by Edgar, seconded by Kennedy, to refer the matter to the City Attorney for a report at the May 3, 1982, meeting. Motion carried 5-0. 81 1. ~EST FOR ~ ~ (13602 Malena Drive) Pursuant to the recommendation contained in the report dated March 29, 1982, prepared by the Maintenance Superintendent, it wes moved by Ho,stet.y, seconded by Edgar, that the two parkway trees in front of the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Marcinkevicz, 13602 Malena Drive, be removed as requested and that the trees be replaced with a type selected by them from the City-approved tree list. Carried 5-0. 86ol 2. I~UEST FOR ~U.v~.K OF PARK LAND D~DICAT~Gt~ F~ES - '~CT 11370 The Community Development Direotor presented the staff report and recommendation. The motion by Kennedy to lower the park land dedication fee by 35%, fro~ $52,000 to $33,800, as long as the waiver is granted under the Housing Element condition which involves resale prohi- bitions, died for lack of a second. Council/staff discussion followed. The City Manager added that the City is not obligated to require follow through for lack of speculation because there are no government funds involved, this is a voluntary program, and as a practical matter, the City does not have the structure to enforce a provision that a unit be .transferred/sold only to a person in the low- or moderate- income range. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 5, 4-19-82 Mark MacA1pine, representing the Robert P. Warmlngton Company, requested clarification on whether Councilwoa~n Kennedy's motion would place a deed restriction on units appointed as affordable. The Community Development Director stated that the Code stipu- lates that it would be a purpose of the Housing Element to pro- mote continued acquisition of affordable units by other families in those income groups. In this specific case, the developer is exceeding the minimum percentage, which is 15-20% affordable by going to 35%. On the other hand, without those deed restric- tions, basically the first-time buyer would be the only one to achieve maximum benefit. The Director pointed out that the Housing Element would not "mandate" but "promote" this stipula- tion. A substitute motion by Kennedy to continue the matter to allow staff to provide additional information/clarification died for lack of a second. In response to Councilman Saltarelli, Mr. MacAlpine stated that a two-week contin~ance would not negatively affect the project, but if resale controls were to be added, the waiver request would be withdrawn. Council/developer discussion followed. It was then moved by Edgar, seconded by Saltarelli, to waive 35% of the park land dedication fees, since 35% of the units will be sold as afford- able, from $52,000 to $33,800. After further Council/staff discussion, the motion carried 5-0. 81 As requested in the letter dated April 7, 1982, from Te~y L. Sorensen, President of the Tustin Jaycees, it was moved by Hoesterey, seconded by Saltarelli, to approve the following: 1) 2) 3) The Jaycees will procure adequate liability insurance to cover their own involvement in the parade, while the City will procure its own coverage to the extent of its involve- ment, with each party then having coverage to the extent it may dee~ necessary; Only those equestrian units with substantial parade experi- ence (i.e., 6 parades within last 12 months) and good safety records will be allowed to participate; in addition, with the exception of military units, these entries will be required to provide evidence of at least $1,000,000 of liability coverage and sign an agreement relieving the City and Jaycees of any liabilities resulting from their partici- pation in the parade; and The City will provide advance funds to the Jaycees to run the parade in an amount not to exceed $2,750.00. Councilman Edgar requested that the "Release, Hold Harmless and Indemnity Agreement" be corrected to read "Tustin Jaycees" rather than the "Tustin Junior Chemmber of Commerce." The motion carried 5-0. 34 The Mayor recognized Agnes Bacon and Margaret Byrd, who spoke in opposition to the City providing funds to the Jaycees for the parade. Councilman Edgar responded that the Jaycees have done a great n,~her of things for the community such as Sr. Citizens' Picnic, the concept of having a Miss Tustin, etc. Councilman Hoesterey commented that Council took action to review the entire Tiller Days event in light of Cherill Webb's (Tiller Days Committee) request. Although ~his is a different CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 6, 4-19-82 organization, it should be included in Co~ncil's study of fund- ing these elements within the ne~Wc year. It is far enough into this year's events that to turn around at this time would be quite damaging without giving these institutions the ability to look for other sources of funding. In response to the Mayor, Councl]man Hoesterey continued that instead of going along the same course because it's been followed forever, and in light of the fact that the City is facing more austere times in the future, it is time to review this and maybe find other methods of funding the projects. However, for this year, the City is committed to the event. Council concurred. 1. I~T FOR ~sz,,~uu~.J,.vss ~SI~ The City Manager reminded Council that an Executive Session was requested for d~scusslon of labor negotiations. ae Senior Citizen Housing - Councilman Edgar stated that during recent months considerable attention has been d~rected towards the need for affordable senior citizen housing in Tustin, but many of these discussions did not reflect realistic funding mechanisms. He continued that many indi- viduals are desirous of a program paralleling HUD Title 8; those who have such housing are very appreciative, but the cost is prohibitive; and ~irect subsidies of rent involve a local bureaucracy which is costly and never satisfies every- one. He suggested the City take the a~ection of using Redevelop- ment funds for housing and proposed a plan whereby land would be purchased with Redevelopment funds at appraised value on which senior citizen housing would be built. Ail off-site Improvements would be paid for by the Agency. With such land ow~ership, the Agency could contrac~ with a devel- oper to b~ld units for rental to senior citizens. Since the end use is control, the size of the units could be small and relatively dense. Also, the use could be controlled so that the tenant had only one car and thus would require only one ~arking space. The developer would own and rent the units profitably to seniors and no direct Agency involvement would be needed. A long contract (such aS 25 years) would be written, after which time ownership would revert to the Agency. Cost-of-living increases in rental would be permit- ted with the provision that larger increases would require justification at a ~ublic hearing of the Agency. With the contract and the Agency owning the land, any unfair treat- ment would be highly visible and few complaints would be likely. Councilman Edgar continued that his plan does not require massive sums of money to initiate and can be implemented on a lot-by-lot basis. The only limitation would be the will- ingness of a landowner to sell to the Agency at appraised value. There are many parcels of land in the old downtown area which could be used this way. Specifically, Councilman Edgar stated that a long-time sup- porter of Tustin, Mr. Walter Fredrickson, owns a parcel at 525 South "B" Street and is willing to proceed along the lines proposed by Councilman Edgar. He noted the following figures on this action: The appraised val~e of the land is about $100,000 which would be purchased by the Agency; the dimensions are 50 by 150 ft. or .176 acres; six small units at about 600 sq. ft. each with one parking space per unit could fit on this lot at a ~nit density of about 35 per CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page 7, 4-19-82 be acre; at construction costs of $60 per sq. f~. ~he 4er.lop- sent would cost over $200,000. With this investment and no need to cover land or outside improvements, Mr. Fredrickson might be able to rent the units profitably for $250 per month, which by current standards would be affordable to senior citizens. Inflation increases would not be painful since such increases would be tied to the Consumer Price Index. It was ~hen moved by Edgar, seconded by Ho.stet.y, that this concept be reviewed by staff with a report for consideration by the Agency and Council at the May 17 meeting. Tn. City Manager responded to Councilman Edgar's proposal ~hat the Agency can ~er~alnly get involved in housing pro- gram,, be it for seniors or low- and moderate-income groups. He stated that the Agency will need to address a couple of points, and staff will need more t~-~ to prepare a repoz~ c~ Mr. Edger's proposal. He suggested that the pro- ~osal be looked at in the contex~ of the overall Redevelop- sent financial plan ~nd recommended =hat any final decision be weighed in view of all other potential projects. Coun- cilman Edgar concurred. Council/staff discussion followed. ~he City Manager indi- cated staff will plan ~o come back in 30-60 days with an analysis as ~o the feasibility of the concept. Once t_he Council acts on that, then staff can come back as par~ of the financial plan and address the capability of the Agency ~o do it frc~ a financial standpoint. The motion carried 5-0. 81 COi'~hus Tustin Perk & Multipur~ose P~creation Facility and Master Plan of Recreation and Parks - Councilman Edgar acknowledged receipt of the report on subject plans, an~ stated that although it embodies all details, he wished to confirm that the Columbus Tustin Park & Multipurpose Recre- ation Facility plan will be expected on July 19, 1982, and the Master Plan of Recreation and Parks, on Dec-tuber 20, 1982. ~e City Manager indicated that there will be interim milestones which will give confidence that the consultants are proceeding on schedule, based on the assumption that there will be a reasonable amount of -~me to review if the citizen task force and/or Council needs more time to review, which would affect the completion date. Council was in con- currence with the proposed arrangement of the task force. NewDoz~ Extension - In response to Council man Hoesterey' s concern that the Newport extension may create a larger traf- fic problem t~han will be solved, whereby nonresidents would use the Edinger freeway off-ramp to cut through Tustin and ge~ back on the freeway at another location to avoid freeway congestion, the City Manager stated that staff will have an engineering analysis done to address those type of problems. be DeveloDment Proposal at Hadley' s Location - Councilman Hoesterey requested that staff contact the "Big Yellow House" restaurant chain to conduct a preliminary market study on locating in E1 Cam!no Plaza (vacated by Hadley's Orchards), since they are committed to the same type theme and design (Victorian) as exists in the downtown area, and would be a good revenue source while adding aesthetically to the community. Council concurred. 81 Mayor Sharp interjected that the Chamber of Commerce be encouraged to promote development in the City. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES Page S, 4-19-82 be NewlF-Elec~ed Officials- Councilman Sal~arsll! offered his congratulations to Councilwoman Kennedy and Mr. Frank H.

Mayor Sharp thanked the Council for their cooperation during his tenure as Mayor and Councilman, and he expressed pleasure in working with th~ and those who attend the meetings regularly. ~T It was moved b? Edgar, seconded b? Kennedy, to adjourn ~o an Execu- tive Session for discussion of labor negotiations, legal and person-- nel matters and thence to an adjourned regular meeting on Tuesday, April 20, 1982.
