Based on comments from Council and LSA Associates, staff reversed its recommendation to delete certain portions of the Land Use Element relating to trip budget transfers and trip assumptions for mixed use projects, and concurred with suggested modifications contained in a letter. from LSA Associates dated January 15, 1992, (Exhibit 2). The report also suggests that Table 11 in the General Plan (Page 66) be amended to reflect correction of minor inconsistencies regarding the size of existing parks. The last issue covered by the report is the additional corrrespondence and information from the County of - Orange relative to its position on the City's Master. Plan of Highways and possible amendments, particularly relating to consistency to the Orange County Master. Plan of Arterial Highways. The Agenda Report dated January 22, 1992, responds to questions raised at the regular. Council meeting of January 20, 1992, and provides suggestions for amend- ments to the Land Use Element to provide consistency between the Council's recent action on the density bonus ordinance and policy, and also to reflect recent action by the County of Orange in adopting the Hazard- ous Waste Management Plan. Finally, the Agenda -Report dated January 27, 1992, contains modifications for three land use designa- tions: High Density Residential, Regional Commercial, and Urban Center. Commercial.

Boulevard be reserved for a park; however., if that were not possible, she recommended a small commercial develop- ment, but definitely not another apartment complex. She preferred densities lower than those recommended in the Steering Committee alternative. Vaughn Redding, 1748 Samar. Drive, Costa Mesa, felt that citizens should be more concerned about the City as a whole, and asserted that more business produces more sales tax. Stephen Slonim, 2979 Royal Palm Drive, Costa Mesa, stated that traffic would flow better if roadways were designed similar to the Santa Ana River. Bike Trail, that is, no stop signs or offramps onto small streets. He felt that Harbor.

Boulevard/Adams Avenue intersection. Bud Richley, 123 Via Genoa, Newport Beach, addressed Alternative 2, Site 11, and Alternative 3, Site 5, the area west of Whittier. Avenue consisting of 30 acres of primarily industrial buildings.

Brian Wood, 340 Cabrillo Street, Costa Mesa, spoke in opposition to the proposal in Alternative 2, Site 15, which is to down -zone that area fram R3 and R4 to R2. Mr. Wood reported that he represents 7 of 9 property owners who will be negatively affected by this proposal since the surrounding properties have already been developed at the higher density. Mr.. Wood felt the alternative is misleading in that it once represented the entire 30 acres, and now it is targeting an area of only 1-1/2 acres. Janet Remington, 1164 Boise Way, Costa Mesa, stated that physical growth does not necessarily promote business I I I growth, and adopting the proposed General Plan is not the only means of supporting local businesses.

Boulevards, and many of them are unhappy because they feel they have been excluded from the planning process.

He laimed that down -zoning would reduce the value of the roperty by $75,000.00 to $100,000.00 and urged Council o retain R4 zoning for. Site 15, Alternative 2. d Noon, 2588 Fairway Drive, Costa Mesa, spoke in ition to the widening of Del Mar. Avenue. tin Ageson, 1064 Tulare Drive, Costa Mesa, opposed .struction of the bridges.

Mayor. Hornbuckle responded that Council objected to the request. Robert Laho reminded Council that there is still a need for specific zoning in the Transition Area on West 19th Street. Paul Frech, 1800 Samar. Drive, Costa Mesa, was pleased I ith Council's apparent opposition to constructing the bridges, and commented that since the majority of the citizens oppose the river. crossings, Council must vote accordingly.

Jeffrey Childs, 1139 Aviemore Terrace, Costa Mesa, Acting President of the Marina Highlands Homeowners Association, and member. of Friends of the Santa Ana River., did not support the proposed General Plan because of the densities it would allow.

He requested adoption of -a General Plan wer. densities. RECESS The Mayor declared a recess at 10:35 p.m., and the meet- ing reconvened at 10:55 p.m. Margaret Peterman, 3002 Killybrooke Lane, Costa Mesa, opposed construction of the bridges, as well as the Baker. Street widening since the latter would require the taking of her. property. 'She asked whether proposed development north of the freeway is the reason for. widening Baker. Street. Mayor. Hornbuckle responded that staff would be responding to her. inquiry. Brian Smith, 332 Cabrillo Street, Costa Mesa, opposed down -zoning Site 15 of Alternative 2 from R4 to R2 because it would reduce the value of his property. Kathy Hladky, 3006 Killybrooke Lane, Costa Mesa, commented that even though the people overwhelmingly opposed the Home Ranch Project, bike lanes (on Baker. Street), and the Del Mar. Avenue widening, these issues are back in the plan again. Roy Pizarek,.1923 Whittier. Avenue, Costa Mesa, Acting President of the West Side Homeowners Association, submitted a petition containing 450 signatures of Costa Mesa residents opposing the 19th Street bridge and widening of 19th Street.

Roy Alvarado, 2619 Santa Ana Avenue, Costa Mesa, felt that the City needed more affordable housing. John Cody, 340 Cabrillo Street, Costa Mesa, opposed down -zoning Site 15 of Alternative 2 from R4 to R2, not only because of the negative affect on his property but also to retain zoning consistency in that area.

Mayor. Hornbuckle replied that his question will be referred to staff for a response. Dick Mehren, 1824 Kinglet Court, Costa Mesa, stated that the proposed General Plan was ill-conceived. He preferred densities lower than those suggested by the Steering Committee; however., he felt the Steering Committee alternative would be an acceptable compromise. Diann Osterlund, 329 East 19th Street, Costa Mesa, did not believe that the businessmen were interested in working with the residents in having a General Plan which would be acceptable to both communities. It was her opinion that densities lower than those proposed by the Steering Committee would be appropriate. e 482 k Schrader, 130 -Broadway, Costa Mesa, was opposed the proposed General Plan and supported low density vin Shannon, 2541 Greenbriar. Lane, Costa Mesa, pported slow growth, stating that it can always be justed upward; conversely, once maximum growth is lowed, it cannot be corrected. Elizabeth Purcell, 378 East 19th Street, Costa Mesa, spoke in opposition to the proposed General Plan, and 'the widening of 19th Street, 22nd Street, Santa Isabel venue, and Del Mar. Avenue. I ;Gene Hutchins, 1808 Kinglet Court, Costa Mesa, stated that most citizens support the Steering Committee's recommendations; however., he now believes that the ',densities in the Steering Committee plan may be too high. i Linda Williams, 3465 Santa Clara Circle, Costa Mesa, spoke in support of a plan with densities no higher than those proposed by the Steering Committee. Michael McDaniels, 1811 Kinglet Court, Costa Mesa, stated that since there has been an overwhelming number of citizens who have spoken in support of lower density, lit was the obligation of Council to vote accordingly. He was opposed to the widening of 19th Street and construction of the bridges. Scott Williams, 3465 Santa Clara Circle, Costa Mesa, spoke in opposition to the proposed General Plan, and explained the method by which the Steering Committee arrived at the plan they proposed. Franklin Cole, 2482 Fairview Way, Costa Mesa, represent- ing the Fairview Village Homeowners Association, noted that a great deal of attention has been given to control of private property; however., no one has mentioned down - zoning, controlling growth, or suggesting that housing be constructed on State-owned property (Orange County Fairgrounds) . In regard to deleting the bridges and the widening of East 19th Street, he recommended that the unofficial citizens committee now working with the City on this issue be given some official status so they can monitor the actions of the County during the cooper- ative study, and, in fact, be official representatives of the City. Harvey Popick, 3315 California Street, Costa Mesa, spoke !in opposition to the proposed General Plan, and urged Council to vote in accordance with the desires of the ;citizens. Darrilyn Oliver., 3077 Yukon Avenue, Costa Mesa, ccm- mended Council, residents, and businessmen for their total commitment to this issue. She urged Council to vote against construction of the bridges. i (There being no other speakers, the Mayor closed the public input portion of the hearing. The Mayor announced that because of the late hour., Council would not be deliberating on any issues this evening. I Mayor. Hornbuckle reviewed those questions and issues for which staff would be preparing responses: i L183 Why are six lanes being planned on Baker. Street only for that segment between Fairview Road and Harbor. Boulevard? (Joan Morrow) What developments will be generating the traffic which will necessitate the widening of Baker. Street to six lanes? (Margaret Peterman) What would be the cost of improvements contained in is the proposed General Plan? (Brahm Walker.) The Mayor requested the City Attorney to provide back- ground data on the Supreme Court Case referenced by Glen Burchfield regarding down -zoning property, and whether it applies to the proposal for Site 15, Alternative 2. The Mayor directed the City Manager to have staff prepare a memo regarding the 11 -bedroom house on Garfield Avenue referenced by Pete Alvarez. Next General Plan After brief discussion, Council agreed to schedule the Meeting Scheduled next General Plan meeting for. February 6, 1992, at for. February 6, 6:30 p.m., in the Council Chambers of City Hall, for. 1992 Council deliberation, and did not anticipate taking public comments. COUNCIL MEMBERS Council Member. Erickson made the following recommenda- COMMENTS tions: East 19th Street (1) Since the item concerning sidewalks for. East 19th Sidewalks Continued Street was not discussed, place it on the agenda to February 3, 1992 for the regular meeting of February 3, 1992. There were no objections from Council. Formation of Ad Hoc (2) Direct staff to prepare the appropriate document Committee Scheduled to form an official ad hoc committee to represent for February 3, the City in negotiations with the County (regard - 1992 ing deletion of the bridges and the widening of East 19th Street from the County's Master Plan of Arterial Highways). Council agreed to have this item placed on the February 3, 1992, agenda. Questions from Vice Mayor. Genis had questions and suggestions for. Vice Mayor. Genis staff: (1) Confirm that the General Plan contains all data requested by Council and addressed in staff's Agenda Reports. (2) In regard to commercial areas which have been given different generation rates per. 1,000 square feet, the Vice Mayor was concerned that the uses are defined in a manner which would result in those different generation rates; or whether all uses would have the same, across-the-board gener- ation rate anyway. (3) Regarding General Commercial and Commercial Center designations, the document states, "insti- tutional uses may also be appropriate", and, "residential, industrial, and other noncommercial uses may be allowed". The Vice Mayor asked whether this wording actually designates definite uses. It appeared to her that uses were being defined in terms of zoning, which she felt was impractical. She suggested defining permitted 184 Hor, nbuckle uses in the, document as opposed to referring to the zones, or incorporating the current zones into the General Plan. (4) Lastly, the Vice Mayor stated that it was her understanding from the Agenda Report on mixed uses, that in the Business Park mixed use, the ratios of uses were set for a particular area that was allotted the uses; whereas, in the Urban Center mixed use, it would apply to the whole j site. Based on this assumption, the Vice Mayor. I suggested having some wording that would allow j for proration because if a ratio were applied to each area of the whole site, the intensities would have at least doubled. (Mayor. Hornbuckle expressed her appreciation to the Marge number of citizens who attended the meeting, and ;commented on theimportance of being involved in local gover. nment. I At 12:15 a.m., the Mayor declared the meeting adjourned Ito February 6, 1992, 6:30 p.m., in the Council Chambers of City Hall, 77 Fair. Drive, Costa Mesa.
