CALENDAR
MEETING OF TUSTIN CITY COUNCIL
RECONVENED AT 8:59 P.M.
February 19, 1980
CITY COUNCIL SITTING AS THE PLANNING AGENCY
Jerry Weil, 1702 Sum~rville Avenue, questioned the advisability of
the City Council serving as the Planning Agency and the City Council.
He expressed the view that more people could participate in government
and more views would be heard if different individuals served on the
Planning Agency.
Councilwoman Kennedy asked that this matter be agendized for discussion.
Margaret Byrd, 158 N. "B" Street, pointed out that it would just require
more nights for meetings and she did not think anything would be gained.
Council concurred to agendize the matter for the 2nd meeting in May which
would give the newly elected Council time to become familiar with the
proceedings.
BROWNING-BRYAN FLOOD CONTROL CONSTRUCTION
Richard B. Edgar, 13622 Loretta Drive, asked what the timing was for the
Browning-Bryan Flood Control Construction that is in the budget.
Mr. Ledendecker, City Engineer, responded that it was being reviewed and
hopefully it would be under construction about July 1st and would take
about 6 months to construct.
POLICE PATROL IN CENTENNIAL PARK
Mike Ryerson, 1362 Charloma, questioned the Council's judgement in placing
the Police Patrol in Centennial Park for three hours each evening.
The Mayor responded tha~ the crimes in the park were serious and Council
had asked the Police to try to clear up the problem.
Chief Thayer commented that he had given the order for the hours the patrol
was in the park. There have been 10 times the number of complaints in the
park area than any other part of the City. Last week the arrests in the
park area were reduced to five.
Councilman Welsh added that we had been able to resolve problems in
Frontier Park and other places and we are beginning to see the light in
Centennial Park.

owners Association, thanked the Council and the Police for help and coop-

3. TUSTIN TILLER DAYS STREET FAIR
Cherrill R. Webb, 1601 Bullard, Santa Ana, explained that as Chairman of
the Tiller Days Committee, she was soliciting the guidance and support of
the Council to work with the Tiller Days Committee to help in building a
program for this and the coming years to make the city-wide event self
supporting.
It was moved by Kennedy, seconded by Welsh, to approve in concept: 1)
acceptance and support of the street fair as a real community project, and
2) furnishing approximately $2,500 from the 1980-81 budget to support the
fair, with the hope of making a similar amount of revenue from the sale of
booths to make the fair self-supporting in future years if possible; and
staff was directed to investigate insurance costs and report back to the
Council.
Attorney Rourke pointed out that if ~le committee gets the insurance for
~ne fair, they would have to pay the premium. If the City assumes the
responsibility of the insurance, it may not cost any additional premium
but could cost a tremendous amount if claims or suits were filed.

THANKS TO KATHY WEIL AND STAFF
Councilman Saltarelli thanked Kathy Weil for her excellent support as
liaison between the City and Tustin Meadows Homeowners Association in
helping to clear up the problems in Centennial Park.
He also thanked the staff for the fine job of the opening of the sidewalk
and emergency street with wrought iron gates on Sycamore between Tu~tin
Meadows and Peppertree.
STORM DRAIN DEVELOPMENT
Councilman Saltarelli thanked the staff and Council for their long range
development of the storm drains in Tustin, the benefits of which were in
evidence during the rain storms of the past few days..
DIFFERENCE IN ISSUING CITATIONS TO ADULTS AND YOUTH
Councilman Saltarelli asked if we could create an ordinance that would
eliminate the unfair practice that we can ticket an adult and release
them but if a juvenile is being cited for curfew violation, he has to be
taken in and go through the entire juvenile process.
Chief Thayer responded that it is not. a matter of a City ordinance but
rather the Juvenile Court requires certain processes such as notifying the'
parents, etc. The juvenile and adult both go to traffic court but the
juvenile is heard by a Hearing Officer and the adult is heard by the
.Municipal Court Judge. It is basically the same process for both.
TELEPHONE OUT OF ORDER
Councilman Saltarelli reported that his telephone at the Council desk
had not worked for 2 months and asked that it be checked. (After the
meeting adjourned, the problem was found and corrected.)
RESOLVING ASSEMBLY BILL 8
Councilman Welsh reported that he had received correspondence from the
Briarcliff Condom/niums, St. Jeanne de Lestonnac School, and Supervisor
P~lph Clark regarding Annexation No. 97. (Main Street and Newport Freeway)
and how soon we are going to resolve Assembly Bill 8. He asked if we had
a meeting scheduled with them. He said Ralph Clark estimated 30 days.
Dan Blankenship responded that Ralph Clark was in the driver's seat.
t~. Welsh suggested that if he says it could be in 30 days, we should be
moving fast and communicating with them more.
Dan said that the League of Cities is moving ahead with some legislation
to get a standard formula applied in the event that counties cannot agree
with cities and that can be a parallel[ action.
It was moved by Saltarelli, seconded by Kennedy, to adjourn at 10:16 P.M.
to an Executive Session for legal and personnel matters, and thence to
the next regular meeting on March 3, ].980. Carried.
