INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: THOMAS HATCH, CITY MANAGER
FROM: JASON PYLE, ACTING FIRE CHIEF & BRYAN GLASS, POLICE CAPTAIN
DATE: JUNE 20, 2017
SUBJECT: COMMUNITY OUTREACH EFFORTS TO PROMOTE SAFE AND SANE FIREWORKS AND
ZERO TOLERANCE INITIATIVE FOR THE USE OF ILLEGAL FIREWORKS
The purpose of this memorandum is to provide information on the various community outreach efforts by both
the Costa Mesa Fire & Rescue and Costa Mesa Police Departments relative to the Fourth of July celebration. In
preparation for the upcoming holiday, the departments have taken a proactive approach in educating the
community on safe and responsible use of fireworks and the Zero Tolerance initiative that informs residents
about the problems illegal fireworks cause and fines associated with the use and sale of illegal fireworks. Below
is an outline of the two departments' community outreach efforts.
• Collaborative effort between the Fire & Rescue and Police Departments to send out Fireworks Safety
mailers to 44,000 residents via the US mail.
• Costa Mesa Fire & Rescue and Police Departments partnered with the Mesa Water District and inserted
Fireworks Safety mailer in water bill that was sent out to 22,500 Mesa Water customers.
• On lune 14, 2017, the Community Risk Reduction Division conducted a Fireworks Booth Operator
meeting. The 35 operators received training and information on the sale of Safe and Sane Fireworks. The
operators also received information on how and where to report illegal fireworks activity.
• The Police Department and Community Risk Reduction Division staff continue to monitor and respond
to fireworks complaints received through Costa Mesa Connect. These complaints are forwarded to the
PD and Arson Taskforce and noted for future fireworks safety messaging distribution.
• The Community Risk Reduction Division staff and volunteers will be distributing 5,000 fireworks safety
door hangers and flyers on July 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. The distribution of fireworks safety messaging will
take place in the areas of the city that usually observe higher fireworks activity and/or a higher number
of complaints. This will be in conjunction with uniformed Police Explorers and Bike Team Detail officers,
who will be simultaneously canvassing neighborhoods and engaging the community.
• Joint Chiefs' Public Service Announcement has been prepared and will be aired in all City
communications.
• Throughout June, the Police Department conducted a number of undercover operations targeting
persons selling illegal fireworks sold within Costa Mesa. As of this date, several arrest have been made
and over 600 lbs. of illegal, dangerous fireworks have been seized. This Police Department will publicize
these efforts to the community via social media to discourage the purchase and/or use of illegal
fireworks over the holiday.
• Six LED message boards will be deployed along major traffic thoroughfares throughout the city. These
messages will include a zero tolerance theme with an admonishment of criminal penalties for the use of
illegal fireworks that carry up to $1,000 fine and/or imprisonment. LED message boards at the high
schools and OC Fairgrounds will also be utilized to help promote this message.
• The Police Department will continue to promote a message of zero tolerance for illegal fireworks
violations leading up to July 4th via a variety of the department's social media platforms.
• The Police Department has been collaborating with both the District Attorney's Office and City
Attorney's Office to seek maximum penalties for offenders of state and local firework statutes.
• The Police Department will have mandatory staffing on July 4th with an additional deployment of
dedicated enforcement -specific units throughout the city. Additionally, Communications will be
operating a dedicated enforcement radio frequency to streamline the communication of firework -
related call -for -service and enforcement efforts. Additional dedicated enforcement units will be
patrolling the community over July 2nd and July 3rd, as well.
The Fire & Rescue and Police Departments will continue their outreach efforts through educational and
preventative measures. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. Thank you.

Tamara Letourneau, Assistant City Manager
FROM: Finance and Pension Advisory Committee
SUBJECT: Preliminary Budget FY 17/18
The Finance and Pension Advisory Committee (FiPAC) has reviewed the Preliminary Budget for
FY 17/18 and has the following comments and recommendations. Our review is limited to the
General Fund which accounts for 91 % of City spending.
FiPAC notes efforts to control spending highlighted in the executive summary. However, the
Preliminary Budget spends every dollar of the 6.1% projected increase in revenue. FiPAC believes
additional spending restraint is necessary so that funds can be set aside for known upcoming
spending demands.
Revenue
1) After 6-7 years of continued growth many believe the economy is due for a slowdown.
2) YTD 2017 auto sales are behind 2016 sales level
3) Online shopping is taking an increasing share of consumer spending and continues to take a
toll on brick and mortar retail sales. The City needs to be mindful of this trend. A recent report
by Credit Swisse suggested that 25% of U.S. shopping malls will be closed in the next five years.
4) This being the first year, we believe the City has been prudent in forecasting revenue from
marijuana facilities and Fire Department hospital transport.
Regular Salaries
1) FiPAC believes this expense category is overstated due to the forecasting methodology.
2) Reduce Non Sworn salaries $700,000 or 3.8%
3) Reduce Police Sworn salaries $500,000 or 3.3%
Maintenance & Operations
1) Reduce Public Services $150,000 or 1.3%
2) Reduce all other Depts. $350,000 or 2.2% (excluding transfers out)
Reduction Total = S1.700.000 or 1
1) FiPAC recommends $1,000,000 be reserved in a separate trust account to help pay future pension
and OPEB costs (see separate letter).
2) Transfer $700,000 to the Fund Balance reserve account. Committee recommendations on
reserve policies to follow but not in time for budget decision.
Mobile Command Vehicle
1) FiPAC recommends deferring purchase of this vehicle. More analysis needs to be done.
2) Reserve the planned $450,000 by transferring the monies to the Fund Balance Reserve.
Capital Projects
1) Do not approve additional engineering costs for the Newport Blvd (project #27) and Wilson
Street (project #29) widening projects until such time as a Council votes to approve these entire
projects, which are estimated to cost millions of dollars each.
Thank you and we are happy to meet to answer any questions.

Taboada 6/17
DATE: June 14, 2017
TO: Costa Mesa City Council
COPY: Steve Dunivent, Interim Finance Director, Tom Hatch City Manager
Tamara Letourneau, Assistant City Manager
FROM: Finance and Pension Advisory Committee (FiPAC)
SUBJECT: Financial Reserves for Pension Costs
The City's pension costs are increasing rapidly. They will increase faster than revenue
which means they will absorb a larger and larger share of future budgets. In addition,
earlier this year, Council was presented with analysis that estimated in the five years (FY
18/19 — 22/23) Costa Mesa will receive an additional $20 million of pension costs due to
a recent Ca1PERS rate change.
In December 2016, the CAPERS Board of Directors voted to reduce the risk to its
investment portfolio and would begin implementing a more conservative investment
policy. As a result, they lowered the rate of return goal from 7.5% to 7.0%. The effect is
substantially higher annual pension costs for CAPERS member agencies including Costa
Mesa. The cost of this change will be spread over 8 years beginning in FY 18/19.
FiPAC believes the prudent action for the City is to begin reserving funds now to help
pay the increasing future pension costs. The City has precedent for this. Annually, the
City sets funds aside for major capital projects, IT equipment, and vehicles.
There is a specific financial program available to set funds aside. It is called a 115 Trust.
Currently 83 public agencies in California (30 of them cities, including Huntington
Beach) have established a 115 Trust. These trusts offer flexibility of investment
strategies and annual contribution and withdrawal amounts. The only caveat, and FiPAC
thinks this is good, is that funds deposited in a 115 Trust must be applied toward pension
costs. The city already has a relationship with the finance advisory firm Fieldman Rolapp
concerning the Lions Park project. We suggest retaining them or another firm to advise
on the advantages/disadvantages of setting up a 115 Trust for both Pensions and OPEB.
The Committee sees the following benefits provided by establishing a formal Trust:
1)Local Control over assets -the trust can be accessed at any time so long as it is used to
pay the employer's pension or OPEB obligations;
2) Pension Rate Stabilization -assets can be transferred to CAPERS at the city's
discretion, which would reduce or eliminate large fluctuations in employer contributions
to CAPERS;
3) Investment Flexibility -investment requirements that apply to the City's funds are not
applicable to assets held in an irrevocable Section 115 Trust. The District maintains
oversight of the investment manager and the portfolio's risk tolerance level and the
investments can be diversified and invested as the Council desires;
4. Lower Net Pension Liability -contributions placed in the Trust reduce the City's
unfunded pension liability. Assets placed into the Trust will directly reduce the City's
net pension liability for financial reporting purposes as required by Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 68;
5. Credit Rating -rating agencies may look favorably upon actions to reduce liabilities.
This is considered a best practice among governmental finance professionals.
FiPAC recognizes there is not enough time for staff and Council to fully analyze this
important decision before the Budget has to be approved. In the meantime, until a
decision is made, we recommend that the Council set aside $1.0 M within the Budget in a
temporary "115" holding account. When a decision is made the funds will then be
available.

Dear Tom -
I understand that the Costa Mesa City Council has funded an
account for improvements at Costa Mesa Tennis Center. Yay!
I have been playing at CMTC since 1982 and I love those courts.
But the facility has only seen a few improvements since 1982
and it is time! The list of possible improvements and upgrades
is long, but I will make 2 suggestions.
First, security. The players themselves set up a GoFundMe account
and purchased security doors for the facility after the Lloyds suffered
2 break-ins with a loss of a significant amount of money. Before
anything else is "improved", security should be up -graded ASAP.
Second, bathrooms. The bathrooms are kept as clean as possible
and in repair as possible, but they are the same bathrooms that I
have been using since 1982. It would save Costa Mesa (my taxes)
a significant amount of money just to change out the toilets to
low -flow (commercial) models. Many times the toilet handles
don't work properly and keep running, so that is a waste of water
and money also.
I hope you will consider these improvements and be able to move
forward with them as soon as possible.

Hello John,
We've been Costa Mesa residents since 1982 and I've been playing tennis at Costa Mesa Tennis Center on and off for
35 years. My kids attended SJB where I met you and your lovely family, as well as Costa Mesa High School (Tom, where I
had the pleasure of meeting Vanessa), and they too played at this facility.
The last 5 years, I started to play tennis seriously and last year, my team represented Orange County at the LISTA
National Tournament in Indian Wells.
The Lloyds are doing a fabulous job at keeping the facility maintained and providing us with great instruction.
The tennis center is sadly in need of much improvements as little has been done by the City over the years. We are
ranked at the bottom when compared to other city's public tennis facilities.
It's reassuring to know that the council budgeted monies for improvements this year. Thank you for that!
Only 2 of the 12 courts have been resurfaced in the last 10 years, the bathrooms are in poor shape, and lights restrict
playas they are so old, they cannot be redirected. I'm sure they also consume a ton of electricity and changing them to
LED lighting would surely save the City money. Security of the facility has been non-existent and the center was
vandalized twice! I had to set up a GoFundMe campaign to help the Lloyd's secure the pro -shop!
I am writing to request that the money that was budgeted be actually spent on improvements for the tennis center.
Many top tennis players have practiced at these courts. The Center has great management, a perfect location, and a
growing tennis community.
I manage 3 teams currently with over 42 ladies on the roster— up 50% from 3 years ago!
It's definitely a growing sport due to the aging population and the council can make it a destination for tennis
enthusiasts!
Thank you for all your hard work for our beautiful City!

Dee Harriman

Hello,
On behalf of a group of concerned homeowners on Sterling Ave, between Victoria and Hamilton, we are opposed to any
sober living homes in our area. We would oppose any and all possible permits for this type of residence in our area — as
2152 Raleigh would be in very close proximity to our street. Please advise on the best way to communicate our
collective concerns to the city council / planning commission, etc. — and/or if there is an opportunity to voice our
concerns in-person on 7/20. If we are reading the notice correctly, we would support the continuance of the denial —
again, so this type of residential use does not occur. This type of use does not make sense for our area, quality of life for
homeowners and families here, nor Costa Mesa in general.
Sincerely,

I am an Eastside Costa Mesa resident, and I understand tonight's Council meeting has a sober living
homes topic on the agenda. I am unable to attend, so I am writing to voice my concerns about the
over -concentration of sober living homes in Costa Mesa.
While I am not against opportunities for those attempting to recover from alcohol and substance
abuse, I am against the large concentration of sober living homes in Costa Mesa neighborhoods. The
neighborhoods are bring overwhelmed by the large number of the homes. Those homes are typically
crowded with a larger number of residents than most homes, with smoking and cigarette buts on the
street, etc., which does not provide a family environment.
Further, it is puzzling why Costa Mesa seems to be such a hotbed of activity. Few other cities do not
have similar levels of sober living home concentration, and home operators are recruiting people from
all over the country. Why is Costa Mesa the home to the nation's recovery problems? It also appears
that the operators have limited interest in recovery vs. interest in the large monthly income the
overpopulated homes contain.
Along with the other populations that our City attracts and often lead to vandalism and other crimes,
such as homelessness, transients, and State early release prisoners, our city is in decline.
Please limit and reduce the number of sober living homes.
Thanks,
Glen Frank

On Tuesday June 20, 2017 the Costa Mesa City Council will hear an appeal of the denial of special use permit SL -
15 -0014 to operate a sober living home for 6 residents at 2152 Raleigh Avenue.
Mr. Ohlhaver is a Costa Mesa resident and has been a business owner in Costa Mesa for many years. Mr. Ohlhaver has been
operating one sober living home in Costa Mesa for over 13 years. Keystone has been quietly providing a service to community
members in need for all these years, long before the other operators moved into the neighborhood.
Mr. Ohlhaver is the type of operator who is good for the community. Mr. Ohlhaver has the support of the surrounding
neighbors, and there have been no complaints to Code Enforcement.
I urge you to uphold Mr. Ohlhaver's appeal of the Planning Commission's denial of the SUP for this particular sober living
home for men.

Dear City Council,
Christ Lutheran Church and School is blessed to have been part of the Costa Mesa
community for over 60 years. Today, as then, we are committed to partnering within
the City to ensure that all of our residents are cared for and receive the opportunities
and services that are beneficial for them. We are proud that the people of our church
act on those commitments and serve faithfully in many ways, such as: serving as
volunteer readers to raise literacy rates among the students at Wilson Elementary
School, our mutual work with Trellis seeking solutions in our City for homelessness, and
our partnerships with Mika, the Christian Community Development organization that
identifies and trains leaders for our neighborhoods.
My purpose in writing today is to express our congregation's concern about the appeal
to overturn the decision of the Planning Commission regarding Application No. SL -15-14.
We write in support of the Planning Commission's previous denial of the application to
permit a sober living home at 2152 Raleigh. We believe that this is not an appropriate
location for such a facility as it is directly adjacent to our church and school campus
where, each day, almost 250 children, ages 18 months — 8th grade, gather to learn.
Additionally, we believe that, with the 80+ sober living homes already in Costa Mesa,
there are ample opportunities for those in need to find healing and a future from
addictions.
We encourage the City Council to vote no on the appeal and support the previous
decision of the Planning Commission.
Sincerely,
Dr. Michael Gibson

Application for Committee Appointment
All information on this page only, is considered public information and will be released to
the public, including being posted on the City's website.
Name: Elizabeth Steele Basile
Indicate the name of the committee you are interested in serving on:
Historical Preservation
City of Costa Mesa
77 Fair Drive, Costa Mesa, CA 92626
1. Indicate why you wish to serve on this committee. Provide any experience or qualifications you may possess that you
think would be beneficial to this committee. A resume (optional) may be attached. (Note: All information contained on
the resume is public information, will be distributed to the public and posted on the City's website).
I would like to serve on the Historical Preservation Committee. My professional background includes
extensive archival research and documentation projects.
I recently worked with the Bill Viola Studio in Long Beach to support the artist's international exhibition
program while maintaining the studio's private physical and digital archive of photographs,
publications, and exhibition planning documentation.
I worked closely with the studio's director to research the 2016 publication of the artist's definitive,
self- titled monograph. My primary responsibilities on that project included materials and digital media
management, attribution research, and preservation of historic artifacts including the artist's personal
notebooks.
Prior to relocating to Costa Mesa, I worked at the Indianapolis Museum of Art while earning a Master
of Arts in Museum Studies. Curatorial responsibilities included preparing site documentation and
maintenance plans for public art installations, producing loan and acquisition agreements, and
exhibition administration. My career began in the San Francisco arts community, commercially
representing Bay Area artists producing original, affordable artworks.
Beautification projects are an important part of Costa Mesa's history. This is evident in the inititatives
of past mayors and council members, as well as the current leadership. I am inspired by their vision to
improve the city for all residents and would be delighted to work with the Historical Preservation
Committee to continue that legacy.
2. As a committee member, what ideas or projects would you like to review or propose?
I would like to review and assist with the committee's public art and research initiatives
The 2016 committee objective to "explore the viability of using the City's archaeological resources to
gain exposure to Costa Mesa artifacts on loan, and look into possible display options and locations" is
of particular interest and aligned with my professional training.
I believe my skills would also be very useful in the documentation of historic sites and recognition of
notable citizens, as well as the City's efforts to preserve and maintain the community's historic
resources.
Thank you for your consideration
