Bob Joehnck.outlined'the steps to be followed by the
Council in regard to the joint..public hearings on the.
redevelopment -plan.. Larry Morrison of Wilsey and Ham,
introduced Bill Reynolds,, -Project Planner, Ray Spinol of
Architectural Planning -Associates, and Bob Joehnck, Legal
Counsel, who.have worked together to.present the redevel-
opment plan. Bill.Reynolds conducted a slide presentation
of the project area,.outlining such.problems as parking.
and traffic circulation, together.with an uninviting
shopping environment... The..ob.jectives of_ redevelopment as
a method of correcting these problems was explained, as
well as funding.techniques that could be applied to the
project. I.t was further_. explained that an alternate.plan
..in the event the Newport Freeway does
has been conceivedp
not -materialize. This. alternate plan would provide for
a -loop road to .carry traffic -around the downtown area with
crossroads;: allowing .local business -oriented traffic into
the downtowri.area.off the two loop roads. In -conclusion
Mr. Reynolds stated that..the.plan is commercially oriented
and does-not.contemplate extensive acquisition of existing
residences. Larry Morrison.summarized some of the points
made by Bill:Reynolds and reassured the residents in the
project area that the proposed plan does not envision
extensive demolition of existing properties. Bill Reynolds
spoke again on.the matter of financing, explaining that if
the Council -does adopt the.redevelopment plan, the financing.
will -be handled -by a tax increment. This means that the tax
base -would be.frozen._at.its.current level. The taxes from
this frozen base would continue to:be distributed to the
various taxing bodies.throughout.Orange County and the -City.
Taxes generated by: new developments. within the project area,
over and above the frozen base,tax roll,.would go into a
special.fund created by.the.Agency to.,repay any costs that
.are -incurred -in carrying'. out, :the prof ect. John. M..Toelle
spoke again,expr.es.sing his.concern that,after the redevel-
.opment plan.is-adopted, any_,.requests for new.structures
in the. project .area be,r.equir6d. to conform to the overall
plan. He was assured that this would.be a requirement.
Phil Sullivan,.,.1755 .Orange Avenue, Costa Mesa, stated that
,he is.the.owner of. commercial property located at Orange
Avenue and Rochester. Street, and .is opposed to any rezoning
of his property. George Maschmeyer, 1822 Tahiti Drive,
Costa Mesa,, spoke regarding -the proposed tax increment for
financing the project: Councilman Raciti expressed his

area. Paul Raver, 3037 Royce Lane, Costa Mesa, asked
questions concerning the"propo'sedNewport Freeway
with respect to a traffic count'and-the complex source
regulations.. He also, asked if any tax_ loss experienced
as a result of th.e redevelopment plan would be sharedf'
equally.by.all.-the taxing agencies. Mr. C. A. Phillips,
150'Rochester S.tree't, Costa Mesa, spoke in opposition
to,the plan as.presented and proposed that the mer-

vard, Costa Mesa, representing Costa Mesa Tomorrow,

ciation-, - went - on record" in support of the downtown
