RESOLUTION 69-43
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
COSTA MESA APPROVING THE BOUNDARY RECOMMENDATI01
OF THE INTER -CITY RELATIONS COMMITTEES OF THE
COSTA MESA AND NEWPORT BEACH CITY COUNCILS
WHEREAS, the inter -city relations committees of the cities of
Costa Mesa and Newport Beach have heretofore been requested by the
Orange County Local Agency Formation Committee to attempt to determine
a mutually satisfactory solution to conflicting, controversial and
overlapping annexation proposals; and
WHEREAS, the joint committees have held a series of meetings and
prepared certain proposals as guidelines for the establishment of more
logical existing city boundaries and for future annexations of adjacent
unincorporated areas; and
WHEREAS, this Council has reviewed these proposals and believes
their approval to be in the best interest of the City;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City
of Costa Mesa, that the following boundary recommendations proposed
by the inter -city relations committees be, and the same are hereby
accepted and approved:
1. SOUTHERLY BOUNDARIES BETWEEN THE SANTA ANA RIVER AND IRVINE
AVENUE
a. That the area of Newport Beach southeasterly of the former
Newport Beach City Dump property in the currently projected
Buccola subdivision should be de -annexed by Newport Beach
and annexed to Costa Mesa with the proviso that the sub-
divider agree to dedicate and improve the southerly half
of 19th Street along the northerly line of the Tract.
b. That the administrative staffs of the two cities work
together to establish a common boundary line along 16th
Street, by proposing annexations and de -annexations
westerly from the intersection of Pomona Avenue and
Superior Avenue, to a point westerly of Monrovia Avenue,
joining the diagonal boundary between the two cities.
c. That the staffs also work together to develop a common
boundary along Industrial Way and 15th Street easterly
from Superior Avenue to Tustin Avenue.
2. FORMER NEWPORT BEACH CITY DUMP SITE
That the City of Newport Beach consider the de -annexation
of the former City Dump Site after the use of the area has
been established.
3. NORTHERLY AREA ALONG TUSTIN AVENUE FROM BAY STREET TO PALISADES
ROAD
The joint committees recognize that various possibilities
exist for a future common boundary in this area and that
more than one can be defended on the grounds of sound
planning principles. The objective is to select a boundary
that is logical in terms of land use, compatibility of
neighborhoods and the ultimate rendering of municipal
services to the residents. The expressed preference of
petitioners in the three pending annexations should be
taken into account, but should not control the determina-
tion of a logical boundary. Examples of alternative
future boundaries are shown on the accompanying drawing.
It is suggested that the Local Agency Formation Commission
evaluate the three pending annexation proposals with particular
regard for the alternative boundaries on the accompanying drawing.
In so doing, various options become apparent which would require
either the denial or modification of one or more of the pending
proposals.
a. Northerly of Mesa Drive
East and West Santa Ana Heights are logically separable
neighborhoods because of the airport clear zone and either
Tustin Avenue or the flood control channel to a southerly
projection of the western boundary of the Airport property
become the possible boundaries. The City of Costa Mesa feels
however, that Tustin Avenue is logically the most desirable.
b. Southerly of Mesa Drive
Tustin Avenue or the rear property lines westerly thereof
appear to represent a more logical boundary than Santa Ana
Avenue. The precise boundary in relation to Tustin Avenue
should be determined after examination of the alternatives
by the staffs of the two cities.
The joint committees recommend that the City Councils of Costa
Mesa and Newport Beach request the Local Agency Formation Commission
to evaluate the alternatives and to approve a Holding Boundary
based on the above considerations; and further that the two
councils agree to withdraw or adjust pending annexation proposals
as necessary to conform to the Holding Boundary.
PASSED AND ADOPTED this 16th day of June, 1969.
