The Traffic Commission recommended prohibiting parking along the northerly curb only. Staff recommended pro- hibiting parking along both curbs. Vice Mayor Hornbuckle opposed elimination of a bike lane to allow parking. The Public Services Director stated that to have a two- way bike lane would require a barrier to physically separate the vehicles from the bicycles or a raised bike trail, and there is not sufficient room for either. Keith Clark, woods Condominium Complex, 1111 South Coast Drive, Unit F-102, Costa Mesa, stated that on -street parking is necessary because parking in the complex is limited. Fred Patterson, 1111 South Coast Drive, Costa Mesa, reiterated Mr. Clark's comments and added that the value of their property would be lowered considerably without on -street parking. Council Member Hall commented that it would be impracti- cal to eliminate parking on the south side of South Coast Drive. He stated that parking should be prohibited on the north side only, and that the north side should include a bike lane. Monica Whelan, 1111 South Coast Drive, Unit A-201, Costa Mesa, stated that the drainage ditch behind the Woods Condominiums might be a possible route for a bike trail; however, during discussion it was determined that this is County property. Eve Belson, 1111 South Coast ]rive, Unit E-102, Costa Mesa, stated that there is not enough extra parking in the complex and that on -street parking is necessary. Bob Hanson, Traffic Commissioner, 3261 Oregon Avenue, Costa Mesa, mentioned that the Traffic Commission's recommendation was to allow parking on the south side of South Coast Drive.

Residents He stated that a survey was prepared and staff received input from various parties before the final survey was constructed. The survey was conducted in an effort to identify specific problems and to obtain input for possible solutions. All responses remain confidential with the exception of the summary findings which are included in the City Manager's report. The City Manager stated that in staff's opinion, the policy question is whether or not the City of Costa Mesa should (a) adopt ordinances regulating those activities within -trailer parks and mobile home parks which are currently unregulated; (b) establish non -mandatory, advisory guidelines for activities in mobile home parks and trailer parks; or (c) take no action at the present time. Council Member Hall suggested.receiving the report, and to allow the Trailertown owner the opportunity to respond to the report. Council Member Wheeler commented that further delay would only exacerbate the problems. He reported that the City of Irvine has experienced the same type of problems, and suggested obtaining Irvine's ordinance and staff input. Vice Mayor Hornbuckle preferred having this item referred to a Study Session before coming back to a Council meeting. Mayor Hertzog agreed. Mayor Hertzog suggested investigating other cities' ordinances in addition to Irvine's. Council Member Wheeler responded that he believed that Irvine is the only city with an ordinance which regulates mobile home and trailer parks. Mildred Kniss, Trailertown resident, 327 West Wilson Street, Costa Mesa, complained about the dirt and dust in the trailer park caused by construction, and the long distance from her mobile home to the trash bin. Lillian Seaman, 327 West Wilson, Costa Mesa, complained about the dirt that was dumped on her lot. Lena Combs, 327 West Wilson, Costa Mesa, stated that the trash problem must be remedied immediately. William Schofield, Colden State Mobilehome Owners League (GSMOL), stated that the majority of parks in Orange County do not have a tenth of the problems that the Dougher (Trailertown owner) parks have. Dawn Wipperman, 2054 Maple Avenue, No. B, Costa Mesa, mentioned items she felt should have been included in the survey and recommended that the Council act upon the following requests: (1) A Citywide ordinance to define legitimate causes for the issuance of eviction notices for anyone perma- nently residing in a mobile home or trailer park; (2) Due to the extreme scarcity of vacant spaces in Orange County and the substantial investment of the individual, enact a measure requiring that displaced residents of mobile home and trailer parks be provided monetary relocation assistance; (3) That the emergency vehicle access and water supply be remedied immediately; (4) A City ordinance allowing residents to display election signs in their windows for a period of three weeks prior to an official election; and (5) A Mobile Home Task Force instituted at City level to mediate mobile home disputes and to police the activities of the park owners. Mayor Hertzog asked that Mrs. Wipperman submit her requests in writing to the City Manager. Mrs. Wipperman asked what will be done if the emergency vehicle access is not corrected. The City Attorney responded that if the park owner does not comply, appro- priate action will be taken. Mrs. Wipperman asked for comments on the issue of dis- playing political signs. Council Member Wheeler responded that the first amendment would prohibit retali- atory action for a person expressing a political opinion in a matter that did not present a clear or present danger. He commented that he was not sure if an ordi- nance by the City regarding the display of political signs would be duplicative of the first amendment. Virginia Gisreal, 327 West Wilson, Space 21, Costa Mesa, stated that the rents at the trailer park are too high and that the mobile homes are too close together. Maggi Bates, 327 West Wilson, Space 72, Costa Mesa, stated that her double -wide home is on a single -wide lot; that her patio was torn up and not replaced; and that there is no parking space near her lot. Doug Yates, 274 Cecil Place, Costa Mesa, suggested recruiting an arbitrator to help resolve the Trailertown problems. Sid Soffer, 900 Arbor Street, Costa Mesa, stated that the City cannot force two parties to arbitrate. He also complimented staff on the Trailertown survey. Glen Greener, 14 Field, Irvine, representing the park owner, Mr. Dougher, stated that he would submit written reponses to the complaints by Friday, May 23, 1986. Mr. Greener reported that R. J. Noble Company is doing the construction work at the trailer park and unfore- seen problems have arisen resulting in the necessity to re -excavate. He commented that the park will have a secure road and drainage system within ten days. 1� 1 Michael-Szkaradek, 1555 Mesa Verde Drive East, Costa Mesa, stated that displaying political signs is also prohibited in apartment complexes. He suggested that the options be more fully explored. MOTION Council Member Hall made a motion to receive the Report Accepted; Trailertown report, and to refer this item, including Referred to all pertinent information, to the Study Session of Study Session June 9, 1986, at 2:00 p.m. in the fifth floor Conference Room.

Council Member Wheeler asked that the following items also be addressed: (1) Not only a copy of the Irvine ordinance, but the implementation used to mediate disputes in mobile home parks; (2) City Attorney to define good cause for eviction at a local level; (3) Can the City add a requirement that more reloca- tion dollars be paid than is required by the State; (4) Can the City regulate displaying of political signs in windows of mobile homes and apartments. Vice Mayor Hornbuckle stated that she would like the arbitration portion of the Irvine ordinance investigated. Council Member Hall stated that his motion includes all pertinent information relative to the subject, including Council Member Wheeler's suggestions. Dawn Wipperman requested that residents of the park receive notice one week prior to the Council meeting at which Trailertown will be discussed. Mayor Hertzog responded that the residents of the park will be noti- fied as requested.

The Municipal Lions Club Code requires $5 million liability insurance coverage Fish Fry for various activities including carnivals and amusement rides as part of a public entertainment activity requir- ing a City permit.

Robert Wolfe, President of the Costa Mesa -Newport Harbor Lions Club, requested that the City accept the $2 million coverage provided by the Carnival operator and the $1 million coverage provided by the Lions Club. The Lions Club has not been able to provide the $5 million required because the cost is prohibitive. Ron Amburgey, representing the Lions Club, was present and responded to questions from Council. Council Member Wheeler felt that the Lions Club should provide the $5 million coverage as required. a.. Les Becker, 465 Cm bridge Circle, Costa Mesa, stated that the $3 million is in addition to the City's present coverage. Vice Mayor Hornbuckle stated that the history of acci- dents at the Fish Fry has been minimal, and felt that if a catastrophic accident were to occur, neither $3 million nor $5 million would-be sufficient coverage. Council Member Hall agreed with Vice Mayor Hornbuckle, and stated that $3 million is an adequate amount of coverage. Sid Soffer, 900 Arbor Street, Costa Mesa, stated that he would prefer the City donate to the Lions Club rather than the South Coast Repertory Theatre.

This amount is based on both the individual grant allocations.and the Chamber of Commerce's request for the "Arts on the Green" Program. The City Manager suggested that the Cultural Arts Committee seek to keep its recommendations within the $95,000.00 figure and then prioritize the,balance of the funding requests in the event Council decides to allocate additional funds after consideration of the fiscal year 1986-87 City Budget. 13 Council Member Wheeler recommended increasing the bed tax and using that increase to fund the arts program rather than using money from the general fund.

RECESS The Mayor declared a recess at 10:15 p.m., and the meet- ing eeting reconvened at 10:25 p.m. PUBLIC HEARING The Deputy Clerk announced the public hearing, continued GP-86-lA/R--86-01 from the meeting of February 18, 1986, for General Plan City of Costa Amendment GP -86-1A and Rezone Petition R-86-01, City of Mesa Costa Mesa, to select possible land use and zoning alternatives, including commercial, industrial, residen- tial, and public use, in the area bordered by Baker Street, Fairview load, Corona del Mar Freeway, and the Orange County Flood Control Channel. Environmental Determination: Negative Declaration. The Affidavits of Publishing and Mailing are on file in the Clerk's office. The Senior Planner reviewed staff's memorandum dated May 14, 1986. A neighborhood meeting was held on April 10, 1986, to obtain input from the affected property owners. Eight property owners attended the meeting; five owned commercial and industrial property and three owned residential property. The five non-residential property owners spoke in favor of Option I which preserves the existing zoning. The residential property owners did not offer any comments. As a result of the meeting, staff agreed to evaluate CL zoning for 929 Baker Street and to reevaluate the existing zoning for the Fairview Baker C2 district and the CL district on Grace Lane. The Staff Report contains discussion on three land use options in the Study Area: Option I - Change General Plan designations to support existing zoning. Option II - Retain existing General Plan designations and establish zoning consistent with General Plan. Option III - Retain existing General Plan designations except for the Grace Lane industrial area and the strip commercial area on Baker, and establish consistent zoning. CL Zoning at 929 Baker Street - none of the three options consider CL zoning for 929 Baker Street. Option 'I proposes MG zoning and a Light Industry General Plan designation. Options II and III propose R2 zoning and a Medium Density Residential General Plan designation. CL zoning would be consistent with either Medium Density Residential or Light Industry General Plan designations. Permitted uses would include offices, retail commercial and financial institutions. CL Zoning at 2991 Grace Lane - Option I retains the CL zone on Grace Lane, but Option III (recommended by the Planning Commission and staff) replaces CL with MG zoning. Either CL or MG would be consistent with the proposed General Plan designation of Light Industry. C2 Zoning for Baker/Fairview Commercial Area - Option I would retain C2 zoning, but Option III (recommended by the Planning Commission and staff) proposes Cl zoning. Except for the dry cleaners (1077 Baker) and the equip- ment rental business (1151 Baker), there is little difference in the conforming status of the existing uses between Cl and C2 zoning. Tony Berringer, 1151 Baker Street, Costa Mesa, thanked the Senior Planner for holding the meeting on April 10, 1986. Mr. Berringer stated that he preferred Option I. Deanna Palmer, 2998 Milbro Street, Costa Mesa, asked for verification that this application did not include removel of residential buildings. The Senior Planner responded that zoning for residential areas would remain as is with all options. William Kessel, 1122 Mission Drive, Costa Mesa, stated that the property behind his, where the new building is being constructed, does not contain adequate parking. Mayor Hertzog asked that staff investigate the parking at that location. Duncan Gallacher, 1086 Tulare Drive, Costa Mesa, stated that he owns the property next to Mr. Berringer's site, and reported that there will be adequate parking after the lot is paved. He also spoke in favor of Option I. Maeve Kumar, 2994 Croftdon Street, Costa Mesa, asked where the overflow of cars would park if parking at the Gallacher property is not adequate. The Senior Planner stated that the proposed use for the industrial building, which was formerly Tony's Building Supply, is a mini -warehouse project. As a storage facility, the site will have more than adequate parking and will not contribute to the need for on -street park- ing. Sid Soffer, 900 Arbor Street, Costa Mesa, stated that the traffic in this City is not caused by development, but by commuters driving through the City. Heino Moeller, 1136 Salinas Avenue, Costa Mesa, repre- senting the property owner at 2991 Grace Lane, spoke in favor of Option I. William Kessel, 1122 Mission Drive, Costa Mesa, stated that he only received one notice of public hearing. Scott Mather, 1115 Corona Lane, Costa Mesa, supported staff's recommendation for Option III. Tom.Holmes, co-owner at 929 Baker Street, stated that only 40 to 50 of the present 190 parking spaces at this site would be used in connection with the proposed mini - storage facility. Robert Fallon, 852 St. Clair Street, Costa Mesa, asked what would be gained by making the proposed land use and zoning changes. 1.55 The Senior Planner stated that the general plan and the zoning in the subject area are not compatible. Some zoning categories in the area no longer exist. Council Member Hall asked the Senior Planner to explain the State law requirements for general plan and zoning conformities. The Senior Planner stated that general plan and zoning must be consistent with each other. For example, there are parcels that are designated residen- tial use with industrial zoning. The subject proposal is to bring the two into consistency with each other, in some cases by changing the general plan and others by changing the zoning. Duncan Gallagher, 1086 Tulare Drive, Costa Mesa, stated that all affected property owners are represented tonight and the consensus is to keep the existing zoning. There being no other speakers, the Mayor closed the public hearing.
