sidewalks were located and then petitioned the Parks and Recreation Commission to
remove some trees. He indicated that when he received approval for the sidewalk
relocation he thought he also had approval for the fence. He hoped that the City
Council would approve the encroachment permit.
Council Member Monahan pointed out that the minimal sidewalk requirement is four feet
and felt that the encroachment of the fence is consistent with other encroachments of
the surrounding properties in the neighborhood, and called attention to the Huscroft
House's historical value to the community.

requirement for the insurance coverage of $1 Million Liability Insurance if the "water
hazard" or the pond in the front setback were removed.
Beth Refakes, Costa Mesa, expressed concern with the water element located in the
encroachment as it would be an attractive nuisance for small children. She supported

scape" as opposed to the "hard-scape" of the brick fence.

following conditions: that a mutually agreed upon encroachment agreementbe
signed; that the agreement would allow the encroachment permit to transfer with
the property's title, that insurance would be required, that it meet all applicable
Municipal Code requirements, and determined that due to the property's
historical value, find it to meet public convenience and welfare, that it is
consistent with surrounding properties and the Municipal Code.
Moved by Council Member Gary Monahan, seconded by Council Member Dixon.
Council Member Monahan agreed to add to the motion that the encroachment
agreement would be in a form approved by the City Attorney and also added that if
there is City action that requires that the wall be removed within the 30 days that it. be
reviewed by the City Council prior to the wall's removal. Mayor Pro Tem Bever
requested that the motion include that the applicant must obtain approval in order to
build his final plan. He felt that there was some confusion with prior approvals.

expressed satisfaction with the plans of the pond.
Mayor Pro Tem Bever expressed that he would not support the motion due to the
