Costa · Mesa officials b~in wor~ing on redevelopment plan
By Tim Grenda, Daily Pilot •.
T be oldest part of Costa Mesa, the West
Side. which has remained largely
unchanged as the rest of the dty has
grown rapidly around it, is moving closer to
a long-awaited transformation.
Mayor Peter Buffa, who has made improv-
ing the area a top priority, is leading city offi-
cials in the creation of a West Side Specific
Plan that would serve as a blueprint to rede-
velop the area west of Newport Boulevard to
the Santa Ana River:
Buffa admits it won't be easy, but be
hopes to widen streets, rebuild vacant-shop-
ping centers using public and private mon-
ey, and make wbatbe considers other badly
needed improvements to revitalize the West
Side. •u we look for innovative ideas and have
some vision and political will, the West Side
of Costa Mesa could become one of the most
deiirable places in Orange County to live
and do business," he said.
Thursday morning, Buffa will take his
vision to the people at a community meeting
sponsored by the Latino Business Council.
An offshoot of the Cotta Mesa Cbambet of
Comme1ee, it was formed by local Latino
couununity business leaders working to
malntAin and improve their community.

T\te meeting will be from 8 to 9:30 a.m. at
Avila.'s El Ranchito Restaurant, 2101 Placen-
tia Ave.
Buffa bemoans the fact that even though
parts of Costa Mesa otter sweeping ocean
views that rival those of Newport Beach and
Huntington Beach, the prime real estate
hasn't been used to its fullest potential.
•It's alwayt kind of intrigued me that
unlike every other dty in Orange County, in
CostA Mesa, property gets cheaper as you
get closer to the water," he said.
A big problem 1s the layout of the West
Side, which_Jn1UAUf \¥88 d~~~uwler
the county1s1eadership as early as the 1930s
and annexed into Costa Mesa when the city
was incorporated in 1953, Buffa said.
Poorly planned streets and other early
decisions make going back and redevelop-
ing the area very hard, he said.
•1t•s not even so much poor planning. It's
no planning,• he said.
Manfredo Lespier, a local attorney and
president of the Latino Business Council,
said the creation of a West Side Specific Plan
is something that should interest every resi-
dent. businessperson and property owner,
not just those wbo live, work or do business
in the area.
•1t doesn't affect just the West Side,·
Lespier said. #I think it impacts the commu-
nity as a whole. It's going to have a domino
effect."
Anaheim Avenue resident Mary Hernan-
dez said something bas to be done to keep
the West Side of Costa Mesa from going the
way of Santa Ana and Anaheim.
"It's getting bad, and 1 think the city
should step in and do something," said Her-
nandez, who grew up on the West Side and
attended Estancia High School. "The com-
munity will get behind tt and help if the city
gets the ball rolling."
The West Side -which includes West
19th StreE!t and Shalimar Avenue -has long
..t>een a political thorn in the city's side:

• Board approves
changes designed to ease
limited-English students
into English-only classes.
By Husein Mashni. Daily Pilot
NEWPORT-MESA -With ·a
daunting English-only initiative
and angry West Side Costa Mesa
parents nipping at its heels, the
school board voted Tuesday night
to upgrade the district's bilingual
education program to more
quickly and efficiently get stu-
dents into English classes.
The board adopted a district
proposal that makes it easier for
students to move from bilingual
and Spanish programs into Eng-
. lish-only classes.
Under former state mandates,
limited-English students were
required to score 36 or better on
standardized tests before they
could attend English-only classes.
But district officials said many
English-proficient students would
be bard pressed to score that
high.
The board's move addresses
one of the most common criti-
cisms of bilingual education pro-
grams: that they bold back stu-
dents. The new standards will test
students in areas they're being
instructed in.
"We've identified norm-refer-
enced tests that more clearly
identify what students are learn-
ing," said Susan Despenas. the
assistant superintendent of ele-
mentary education. "It will gtve
us a better picture of what they're
learning.•
Unless Proposition 'l.'l.7 passes
on Tuesday, the district will con-_
tinue offering primary-language
instruction. in which students are
taught in Spanish; pri.mary-lan-
guage support, in which students
receive Spanish support in Eng-
lish classes; and English-only
classes.
U Proposition 227 passes, the
district will no longer be able to
offer primary·language instruc-
tion.
"We are in the best position
now to create a program that
works for our district," Despen4s
said.
But she said Proposition 227
could place undue restrictions on
the district's ability to offer bilin-
gual programs.
The board's decision came
shortly after one parent criticized

OKs alcohol laws
• Ordinance requires all
new alcohol-sel'Ving busi-
nesses -and those
deemed 'public nuisances'
-to obtain city pennits.
By Jenifer Ragland, Daily Pilot
NEWPORT BEACH -Going
further to protect the rights of
existing alcohol-serving estab-
lisbnlents, dty leaders Tuesday
night approved a modified alco-
holic beverage ordinance.
The changes to the ordinance
were in the section giving the city
the ability to apply the new rules
to existing businesses deemed
"public nuisances.• That section
was also heavily debated at a
Planning Commission meeting
last month, where the ordinance
was eventually endorsed.
Unless an existing business
becomes a public nuisance or
substan~y changes its opera-
tion, the law wW require only new
alcohot:servtng businesses to
obtain a dty pennit subject to cer·
tain conditions.
Members of the business com-
munity spoke in opposition to the
public-nuisance clause of the law
and questioned why the dty
needs more regulations on what
they say is an over-regulated
industry.
•I cannot comprehend why
this is needed when we have over
150 (Alcoholic Beverage Control)
regulations," said Dan
Marcbeano, owner of The Arches
resta\UBDt ·ean someone please
explain to me how this will help
Newport Beach?•
City officia.ls responded by
saying there is no effective city
mechanism to deal with out-oi·
control alcohol-serving establish·
ments. They stressed that the
intent is not to shut down busi-
nesses, but to work with the own-
ers to solve the problem.
"We want to deal with the bad
apples that give all you guys a
bad name,· said City Manager
Kevin Murphy. ·we are not try·
ing to punish certain existing
businesses.•
The original definition ot
"public nuisance• in the ordi·
nance included specific crimes

But what really outraged me
was the tepid response to this

some degree of critical. judgment.
But you'd never guess it fro.tn the

an idea• and "I'd be biippy to

Judy Franco said, "The con-

Serene Stokes talked all
around it, suggesting the school
board discuss the importance of
~acter education and pointing
out that if parents ·deprive their
children of religious education,
the kid is not going to have the

$aid: "This is an outrageous sug-
gestion. lt not only defies both
the letter and spirit of the separa-
tion of church and state, but it's a
~ble idea as well. It has no
place in our public schools."
Since no board member took
that position publicly, we have to
assume one of two things. Either
they don't feel that way -a pos-
sibility as disagreeable as it is
likely -or they don't want to be
seen publicly in the position of
stiff-arming God.
This is the edge that Christian
fundamentalists work to such
great advantage. Because they

No charges
filed against
Eairview officer
The district attorney's office
amtounced Tuesday that it will
not fjJe charges against a state
police officer at Fairview Devel-
opmental Center in Costa Mesa
who was accused of assaulting a
prostitute.
Melvin Charles Potts, 31, of
Irvine was arrested by Costa
Mesa police May 2 for allegedly
picking up the prostitute in bis
state police car on Harbor Boule-
vard and fondling her in an emp-
ty Santa Ana parking lot.
A security officer at Fairview
-a state hospital for the mental-
ly disabled -Potts was booked
on suspicion of false imprison-
ment, sexual assault and sexual
assault un"<ler the color of author-
ity.
Lt Ron Smith of the Costa
Mesa Police Department said
without any witnesses to the
alleged crime, the case boiled
down to conflicting accounts from
Potts and the prostitute.
•It's the classic case of he said,
sh6 said," Smith said. "Because
she is an admitted prostitute, it
hurt her credibility. We thought
we had a strong case."
Potts was placed on admiius-
trative leave at Fairview pending
the criminal investigation.
Fairview officials could not be
reached for comment Tuesday.

Suspected jewelry
thief arrested
Tackled by a security guard
after allegedly stealing a $15,000
wristwatch from a Newport Beach
jewelry store, a daring thief broke
free Tuesday only to be arrested by
police after a three-hour searcll,
authorities said.
The suspect -identified as
James Webb, 27, of San Marcos
-was booked at Newport Beach
jail on one count of grand theft.
Bail was set at $10,000, said Sgt.
Mike McDermott. Police are
seeking a second suspect.
Police said a man walked into
Trllditional Jewelers, 203 New-
port Center Drive, about 12:44
p.m., and asked to see a $15,000
Rolex watch. As he examined the
watch, he suddenly bolted for the
front door, officers said.
The store's security guard pur-
sued the suspect and tackledbim
in front of the nearby Coco's
Restaurant. After wrestling with
the guard, however, the suspect
broke free and headed toward
Newport Beach Country Club.
Officers established a security
perimeter at key access points
along Granville Drive and were
assisted by police dogs that
combed the a.tea for about three
hours, McDermott said.
About 4:20 p.m., an officer
spotted someone who matched
the description of the suspect hid-
ing in some brush, pursued him
on foot and took him into custody.
The suspect was brought back
to the jewelry store where he was
positively identified by witnesses,
police said.
Bank robbed by man
with demand note
A man described by witnesses
as a transient stole an undis-
closed amount of cash Tuesday
from a Wells Fargo Bank branch
in Costa Mesa, police said.
The robber walked into the
bank, 301 B. 17th St., about 2:05
p.m. and gave a teller a note
demanding small-denomination
bills.
After receiving the cash, the
robber ran out of the building. Wit-
nesses said he did not display a
gun during the holdup, police said.
The robber was desaibed as a
white man in his 30s, about 5 feet
10 inches tall, weighing 150
pounds with blond hair. He wu
last seen wea.rtng a blue denim
jacket and blue jeans.

But the law adopted by the
council Tuesday ma.lees the defi-
nition more general, confining it

tion of state Alcoholic Beverage
Control regulations, local alco-

penal code or other state laws.
The activity would have to be

WESTSIDE
CONTINUED FROM 1
City officials have wrestled
with ways to correct the area's
awkward mix of residential and
commercial properties, which
often puts apartments rtght next
to auto-repair shops, restaurants
and heavy industrial uses.
Some neighborhoods suffer
from severe infrastructure prob-
lems, such as a lack of stonn
drains, which cause chron~c
street flooding during winter
rains. '
Even plans to increase com-
mercial traffic along the area's
main corridor by extending 19th
Street across the Santa Ana River
channel are a lightning rod for
controversy, igniting the anger of
residents who fear tht! spillover
effect would ruin quieter parts of
the West Side.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 27, 1998 • launched plans to spark improve-
ments, a West Side Speclfic Plan
brings special challenges.
Because almost all of the area
already is developed, carving out
areas for commercial, re5idential
and other areas is difficult when
compared with undeveloped
land, where officials have the lux-
ury of putting what they want
where they want it -like paint-
ing on a blank canvas.
That means some land-use
zoning likely would have to be
change9 to create more of a uni-
form feel and so busy streets
could be widened to increase
their efficiency, Roeder said.
While the plan still is sketchy, it
figures to come into focus in about
a month, after city officials select
a consultant to guide the process .
The field of prospects have been
narrowed to a few finalists, and
offldals could hire a consulting
firm soon, Roeder said.
The first recommendations
from the consultant could come
six months to a year later. but no
formal~ line for actual work
hu ~n detenmned, official.I
said.
Buffa said a specific plan likely
would be implemented over a
five-to 25-yeer period.
The city will require whatever.
consultant is hired to hold several
public workshops and meetings
to make sure West Side residents
have a say in the plan, Roeder
said.
•Tue best plan on Earth is not
going to happen without input
from the community,• he said.·

absent community input.•

•First-year coach, lauded
for guiding Sea Kings into

his team humbled in first
round of Div. IV Playoffs . ·
First-year coach John Emme
smiles politely when
accepting the congratulatory
fanfare surrounding his Corona
del Mar High baseball team's
season.
But just days removed from
the Sea Kings first CIF playoff
appearance in six years, a 12-2
Division IV loss at second-
seeded El Segundo Friday,
Emme wasn't exactly in a mood
to celebrate.
"I'm not satisfied; not even
close," Emme srud Monday.
"Never in my life have I
accepted mediocrity and I'm not
about to start now. And that's
what I feel we were: mediocre.•
Emme did acknowledge the
positives that sprung from the
12-13 campaign, including a
school and district single-season
record 44 home runs.
But, as the program's first
on-campus coach since the
1980s. Emme is committed to
working th.rough the lack of
baseball IQ that has plagued
the program in recent years.
"We have a good nucleus
coming back, but we need to
work hard to make sure we don't
repeat the mental and physical
mistakes we made this year,•
Emme explained. "I mean 59
errors is ridiculous.• u
Opposing pitchers would
likely term the 44 long balls
CdM bats blasted this spring as
equally absurd, as was the
.500-plus batting averages
posted by junior Ty Harper (.532)
and Princeton-bound senior
Ryan Achterberg (.513).
Harper, who hit .505 in his
varsity debut last spnng, is now
81for 156 (.519) against varsity
pitching. with 12 homers and 62

He will likely make a strong
run at former Newport Harbor

district career home run record
(20 in four seasons), as well as
Kevin Stuart's school career

"How do we change the mindset from driving a car'lo using public transportation
over the next 20 years?" asked Lisa Mills, chief executive officer, Orange County
Transportation Authority (OCTA). Mills was among the distinguished speakers who
recently .addressed the first Orange County Senior Summit held at Chapman University.
The goal of the summit was to serve as a call to action for public discussion anti policy
formation on the most significant issues facing senior citizens in Orange County.
OCTA, with a 1998 budget of $650 million is the fastest growing bus system in the
country. Among its responsibilities are countywide public transit service (other than
Laguna Beach; paratransit services (ADA) ACCESS for the disabled at no charge;
Measure M (one-half cent sales tax); commuter rail; and motorist services, such as call
boxes and the Abandoned Car Removal Program.
According to Mills, OCTA faces a number of challenges:
• Mandated services (ADA) yet no funding for implementation, such as ACCESS
door-to-door pickup costs of $19.12 per rider compared to a fixed roµte service cost of
$1.76 per rider.
• With the increase in population countywide and particularly in the senior segment,
55.000 hours of service were added in last two years, with many routes still having
standing room only.
•Reduced funding due to a diversion of $15 million per year in operating funds for
Orange County bankruptcy recovery.
• 50% decline in federal operating funds and $3 million per year in property taxes
diverted to education in the last five years.
• Population will increase by 22% in Orange County, with an increase in the senior
segment by 113% by the year 2020; employment will increase by 70%.
She cited that the demise of the Dial-A-Ride program was due to lack of funding.
•OCTA services to seniors
• Comprehensive bus service -Of the 50 million boardings per year, more than three
million are passengers age 55+.
• Senior discount fares -.45 peak hour vs. $1 regular fare: .15 off-peak hour vs. $1
regular fare. ACCESS -S 1.
• Paratransit service -Special services to senior nutrition sites in 22 communities:
17% of operating revenues carry only 2% of riders.
I
llnltby, WN.lthy & Wise • 3
• OCTA programs in the works
• Expanding bus service by 50%.
• Studying a light rail service (ACCESS) from El Toro to John Wayne Airport and
through the cities of Costa Mesa, Santa Ana and Anaheim.
• Pilot program in Huntington Beach, San Clemente, Brea and La Palma focusing on
local operation of senior transit services, whereby the city, OCTA and AAA (Area
Agency on Aging) work together to meet senior transportation needs.
• Safer, ~re accessible bus stops.
• Legislation to mitigate lost funding.
·According to Milis, "We need to look at effective land use and where we locate
senior living facilities in proximity to bus service. shopping and medical centers.
"What's a reasonable distance for public transit to provide transportation for seniors to
medical facilities, senior centers, or dialysis treat!hents? Can we deliver paratransit
service, so it's fast, yet cost efficient, similar to the way a taxi delivers service? Can
new funding sources be found for senior transportation?"
For transportation services available to seniors, con/act your local senior centers.

A financial checklist for approaching retirement Ab~wutwords a o reverse
By Gerard J. Kohler Jr .. registered principal, certified financial planocr,
Associated Securities Corp .. Newport Beach
You will need to make some aitical decisions in the moochs pru:eding
retirement to ensure that the transition to retirement is smooth and seicure.
Weigh early n:tirement carcfuJly. More than half of Americans mm before
age 65. But if you retire al 62 instead of 65, for eumplc, you'll lose 20 peroent
of your Social Security benefits and your pension beoetits probably will be less.
You will also have to fiod health insw1lnce covcnge if your empk)yer doesn'l
provide it, until you arc eligible for Medicare at age 65.
Project your income and expenses. A rough rule of thumb is chat you will
need 70 to 80 percent of your pro-retirement income to live on. You may travel
more and dine out more. which can offset the drop in income taxes and
mortgage ell.penses. Utilities, health insuta.nQe and property taxes will likely
rise.
Ideally, you have been saving for retirement all along and arc financially set.
Still, this is a good time to sit down with your certified financial planning
professional and review your financial bcalth and retiremeot goals.
• Choose a miremeot distribution option
Before you decide to take your retirement funds in a lump sum, or as an
annuity, your health, income sources and tax ooosequenoes will be major
factors. If you take the lump sum and do not need most or all of the moocy
immediately, you may want to rolJ it into an IRA (individual retirement .
aocoont) within 60 days to avoid the large ta.x bice. If you need money for a
start-up business at retirement, you may want to pay taxes using five or JO.year
forward averaging. lf you select an annuity, there arc many choices which
include both fixed and variable annuities. You may choose growth fur a portioo
of your investments and income for the balance in order to augment Social
Security inoomc. Don't automatically shift all invcstrnenfs into conservative
fixed assets such as certificates of deposit (CDs). Many catificd financial
planning professionals recommend keeping al letit 25 percent of your portfolio
in equities. Why? If you retire at age 65, your life expectancy is another 20

Review insunun occm and consider if your spouse will need 1o pay eswe

difficult to obWn and more expensive as you grow older.

• Wiiis, Uflna w8ls and trusts
Nearty all adults should have a Living Will. A Living Will is ~ically an
individual's written declaration of what life-sustaining medical treatments he or
she will allow or will not allow in the event the individual becomes
incapaciwcd, such as through a terminal illne& or when in a coma.
Richard Nixon and Jacqueline Onassis had signed Living WLIJs and were
allowed to live their last days according to their instructioos within the
docwne:nts.
The deba.le over health care reform bas aea1ed reocwed interest in Living
Wills because of the high cost of dying. Approximately 30 percent of the toea.I
United Swes health care bill eadl year occurs in the la.st six months of the
patient •• life.
Oftm the trealment is given. even though the doctor and family know it is
futile, for fear of being sued. Preparing the Living Will in advance can provide
comfort for the individual and direction for the family membcn. It also can
mini.miu expenses paid for by the family or by taxpayers. The decails of Uving
Wall swutes vary from state to Stale. but in geoeral the document must be in
writing, wimessed, nocariud and made while the individual is 18 or older and
competent
Uving wills can be drafted wilh the aid of an auomey while inparlng the
will and living trust Forms can also be ohtained from hospitals or organizations
such as "Choice in Dying," 250 W. 57th
------St., New Yock. NY 10107. Because Uving Wills cannot anticlpare every type
of medical circumstance or may be
restricted by statute, a recommeoded
companion document is the health care
durable power of auomey, or health care
proxy. This allows the individual to
_...,"""'· ·~someone as their agent to make
health care decisions oo their behalf,
should they be unable to do so.
The will aod trusts should be reviewed
by an attorney specializing in your swe
of residence.

Make t~ right decision
Select an

that has:
•Qualified, Experienced Caregivers
• Cleon Wellf quipped Homes in
Safe Residential Neighborhoods
• Careful Supervision
• Quality Assurance
•
gourmet dining, elegant surroundings and access to intimate ports.
River cruises may be aboard barges, steamers, ferries or Mississippi
padd.Jeboats.
• Special cruises
Among the most popular arc: alum!}i, cclcbr,ity, conference,
fitness, freighter travel, senior and singles (of all ages!)
• Gcttina lnrormation
Ask your friends and family who have taken a recent cruise (the
cruise industry rapidly changes) what they enjoyed and why. Choose
a travel agent you trust to !lSk for advice. There are also many books
and travel publications to spark your interest. Cruise Travel
Magazine is entirely devoted to the latest new or refurbished vessels.
Frommer's gives you information about all destinations and ships
avai lable for the traveler.
• Saving money on your cruise booking
Plan early and be flexible. Travel during the off-season, such as
taking a tropical cruise in the summer. If you 're able to wait until the
last moment you can bargain with the cruise line. They will be
willing to cul the cruise to avoid vacancies. Some large travel
organizations obtain discounted fees because of their huge buying
power. If you live in Orange County and your ship sails from Miami,
look for sea-air packages, which cut the cost of your airfare because
of early bookings.

a fine dinner with conversation
about the exciting day we all
shared on shore.

. ONT LET .LONG~TERM CARE
JEOPARDISE YOUR ASSETS,
LIFESTYLE OR INDEPENDENCE.
Hi, I'm Jeremy Pitt-Payne. Dignity, Independence & Pea~ _of Mind are
. three of the most compelling reasons to consider long-term care insurance
coverage. As a licensed insurance agent and a long-term care insurance
specialist, my job is to ensure that my clients receive the best insurance
coverage available. I choose to entrust my clients to the professionalism
of G.E. Capital Assurance.
When I work with you to design a plan to fit your needs, you can be certain:
You will be insured by a reputable, financially stable
company that you can trust. G.E. Capital Assurance has an A+
(Superior) rating from A.M. Best Company.
The Long Term Division at G .E. Capital pioneered the
development of long-term care insurance 25" years ago and
bas never raised the premiums paid by existing policy
holders.
You can find flexible coverage to fit your needs; whether you
choose to stay at home and receive help or move to an
~isted living or nursing bome facility.
You will encounter a comprehensive range of benefits ... care
coordination services, inflation protection, premium waivers
during covered nursing home stays, caregiver training and
more.
Finally, G.E. Capital Assurance's products are the only
ones recommended by the American Society of Health Care
Association Executives, whose members represent 90% of the
privately owned nursing homes in the country.
You are successful because you have worked hard and
made responsible decisions. Don't let long-term care
jeopardize your assets, your lifestyle or your independence.
Please let me help you take care of this risk while you are
be8lthy, active and able to qualify for coverage! Call today
and schedule an appointment with me. We can meet at
your convenience, either in your home or at my Newport
Beach office.

· Sunlight dapples acroi.!. lhe sea as lhree explorers set sail
aboard Oasis. a 26-foot Catalina sloop. Skipper for the day is
. John Kraus. with Irmgard Sorge serving as first mate and Dave
Salcido. who is al<>o a skipper, along for the cruise.
All three are members of the OASIS Sailing Club, a self-
i.upporting group that operates out of OASIS Senior Center in
Corona dcl Mar and sails out of Newport Harbor. Monday
through Friday.
The trio motors out into Newport Harbor,
engaging in social chatter until they reach Linda
.h ie. The hum of the 6hp Johnson outboard motor
makes it difficult for more detailed
-conver\ations.
"Once you get out on the ocean. you're aJI by
yourself except for an occasional dolphin," Sorge
. said. "Sometimei. we· JI see a whole pod of them.
We've also seen pilot whales, sea lions and once,
. we saw a grey whale which was bigger than the
boat."
: As Linda Isle approaches, Sorge remains at the
helm while Kraus switches places with a g uest so
he is in a better position to reach the lines.
"Are the main sheets free?" Salcido asks. "Can
you get the gaskets up there? Do you have ~e
winch handle?"
'T II have it for you in a moment," Kraus
.replies. then turns toward Sorge. "Do you see
that boat up there?"
"Ya. I see it," she says.
Soon the sails are unfurled and the only sound
is that of water lapping gently against fiberglass
and wi nd filling the sail.
The three of them work smoothly and effortlessly
together, although their experience on the water varies.
. "I've been sailing since 1927. when I went to summer
camp in New Hampshire and learned how to sail on an
inland lake," Kraus said. "I grew up in New York City,
went to MIT. then worked in Cleveland and moved here
. in '61 on Labor Day."
At the other end of the spectrum is Sorge, who began
sailing three years ago.
"I had never been on a sailboat before," she said. "After
my husband died, I started playing Ping-Pong at the
bASIS center and a skipper invited me out on the boat. I
was booked. They let me steer the boat my first time -I
couldn't believe it and I've enjoyed it ever since."
Sho-fell in love with the sport and became the inaugural
·~emtied first mate at the club.
Salcido, a 63-ycar-old resident of Newport Beach. is also a
. skipper. He led a group of sailors on the first-ever overnight
.trip that club members had taken. They traveled to Catalina.
. where they spent the first night a.more. The next eveo.ina was
· spent aboard the vessel and included an elegant dinna of filet
·mipon.
· -rherc ~ momentl of tenor and momentl ot anxiousness,
·because we had equipment problems 1ouing through the • -harbor, but I'd like to go again." Salcido wd.
Comprising SO members, the OASIS Sailina ClUb is evenly
...1plit among men and women, wich 25 me~ben of elcb sex .

the positions. He became more
involved in the club several years
ago, when there were only 20
members .
"I tried to make sure the club
continued. At the time, the skippers
were getting older, so I took the
initiative to bring members closer
together." be explained .
"And John has done a great job,"
concurred Sorge .
In addition to daily sailing ex.cunions
through Newport Harbor and along the
Newport coastl~ club memben have also
sailed to the man-made islands that house oil
wellJ off of Lona Beach. Additionally,
memben and their guests have sailed on the
tall ship Lady Washington. a replica of an
18th century sailing ship .
According to Kraus, sroup memben are
convivial and haven't bad any problems in acbedulin&.
For example, during their sail, shared interests, such u
travel and Jeopardy. are topics of coovenation unoaa the trio.

Seniors volunteer or law enforcement agendes
The Volunteer Center of Greater Orange County
serves more than 2,000 local non-profit organizations,
connects people and builds partnerships for creative
solutions to community problems. One of the
programs supported by the The VOiunteer Center and
the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP)
drew national attention as they combined their
resources and introduced AARP's Telemarketing
Fraud Fighters Program last year. Volunteers, law
e.nforcement officers and others Interested attended a
seminar in learning how to teach fraud prevention to
senion.
Now, through programs like the Volunteer Center's
Retired Senior Volunteer Program, (RSVP) volunteer
policing efforts and YANA (You Are Not Alone) in-
bomc visits, trained Fraud Fighting groups carry what
they learned to homes throughout the county -in
particular to homebound seniors -whUe the Fraud
Fighter volunteers spread the message throughout the
county at senior centers, club meetings and
community centers.
In addition to the Fraud fighter volunteers, seniors
make up a large portion of the Orange County law
enforcement community. The function of these law
enf orce,ment volunteers falls into three lnajor
categories:
•Crime prevention -including house checks for
vacatiooing«sidents, crowd management and beach
watch.
• Police support services -ticketing for parkina
violations, clerical support. forensics assistance and
staffing neighborhood substations.
• Community support services -providing public
information and visiting iaolatcdlhoosebold teniors.
· These suppon functions either provide revenue
directly (i.e. parking citations) or indirectly by
supporting police activities and allowing officers to
focus on more urgent policing matters. Community'
volunteer policing efforts have been associated with a
_significant decrease in crime rates in Orange County
in the past year.
