CRrc.RbUNC ~flol An Orange County Superior Court judge has given a Costa Mesa woman until the e nd of the month to find homes for her house full of felines or face a criminal tri- al. Patricia Hotz, who had more than 50 pets m her home, was cited in May for breaking the city's municipal code that prohibits resi- dents from having more than four animals. She faces up to one year m 1aU and a $1,000 fine if convicted. Hotz has · attempted to find homes for her pets and has been somewhat successful. But with overcrowded animal shelters and the fact most of her cats are older, she hasn't been able to reduce her pet household to the a ty's magic number. · -she has reduced the number of ro.ntcbM1to 2000 Moving on up pets by 50% since she was ated, • said Hotz's dttomey, Bill Urban -Although it has been about si,.~ months, it hasn't been enough time to find homes tor the cats. We need more time." Hotz has received many letters, but none of her supporters have offered to adopt one of her cats.

On a separate campaign front, the anti·El Toro forces have ratcheted up their fight against plans for a commercial airport in South County, as those who watch cable TV already know.

Recently the Pilot printed a letter from a South County anti-El Toro Afr. port resident; in response to Costa Mesa Councilwoman Heather Somers' thoughtful piece on the closure and transformation of the El Toro Marine base to a commercial airport(" Airport column skewed facts,• Dec. 11). COMMUNITY COMMINYARY study done in the last 15 years. These figures and their analysis are supported by the PAA, as well as Southern Cal- ifornia Assn. of Governments, as well as P & D Tedlnolo· gies. Presently, 46% of Orange County passenger$ must use fadlities other than JWA. By the year 2010 that figure will be 72%. Addition- ally, 96% of .all cargo must be processed outside the county. That ts money out of the pockets of Orange County businesses. initiative proposed by South County is to derail the need· ed airport at El Toro. The sole· purpose pro~ect for the March 7 ballot initiative is to subvert the planning process presently in place and approved by the electorate in two general countywide elec- tions. Moreover, if the com- ments of their supporters are any indication, it is their attempt, to shut down the current planning process and expand 4ohn Wayne Airport. With regard to the points that were made by the wrtter, I respond as follows: States.• thomos cole edwords 1. The majority of Ocange County residents have spo- ken twice on this issue. The Board of Supervisors did not hijack the planning process for El Toro. In fact, through two public and countywide elections, the people of Orange County detemtlned that they wanted a reason· able and equitable basis for the planning of the closure at El Toro. When invited to par- ticipate, the cities of Irvine and Lake Forest have boy- cotted the process. Moreover, some at the federal govern- ment level have labeled the county's planning process •the most democratic base closure process in the United 2 There is an incred.Jble demand for more air capacity in the region. The demand for increased air traffic capacity 3. There js no plan for 824 flights a day, 24 hours per day at El Toro. I emphasize again, there are no plans, for 824 flights, 24 hours per day at El Toro. In fact, there are no plans whatsoever with regards to El Toro. At present, all that is being prepared is the necessary environmental docwnentation pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Affairs Act, which I might add, is being highly scrutinized by South County to detennine what the effects of various scenarios would be on El Toro. Take a look at what is being proposed in a· positive attempt by different commu-, nity leaders m the county and recently adoptect unanimously by the Board of Directors of the Orange County Regional Airport Authority. These are the representatives of the cities of Anaheim, Garden Grove, Newport Beach, Bue- na Park, Costa Mesa, Cypress, Fullerton, Los Alami- tos, Orange, Placentia, Seal Beach, Stanton, Tustin, Villa Park and Yorba Linda. An organization which represents approximately 1.2 million people in Orange County. is not a figment of anyone's imagination. Regional demand will be 23 million passengers annually by the year 2010, 55 million passen- gers annually by the year 2020. nus may be more than can be handled by El Toro and John Wayne combined. These figures have been sup-, ported by every regional 4. The sole reason for the 1. Orange County should Leece deserved to be passed over • AT ISSUE: Readers don't agree with Steve Smith's col- umn about the school board's leadership elections ("School board was wrong, again, to pass Leece over.w Dec. 18). A s one of many parents mobi- lized by the fi.nancial misdeeds of the Newport-Mesa Unified School District a couple of years ago, I've followed news of the board and district fairly closely since. Steve Smith's claim that Wendy Leece was passed over for the board clerk posi· lion because ·s~e represents the West Side" rings hollow. Leece READERS RESPOND was passed over not because she represents the West Side (all board members are supposed to represent the entire district), but because she's perceived as a religious fanatic. Most people want the district to edu· cate their children, not indoctrinate them in a specific set of religious beliefs. The West Side, a .k.a. Costa Mesa, complains often a bout the children of the rich people in Newport Beach getting a better education. They grouse that organizations like the Corona del Mar Foundation should raise money for all the schools, not just Corona del Mar. The fact of the matter is that the West Side already gets a disproportionate share of dis- trict resources relative to their contri- butions. At the time the two dislrlcts merged i.nto the Newport·Mesa Uni· fied School District, it was thought that combined we could do a better job of educating our collective chil- dren. Economies of scale would enable the new district to have its own buses, buy supplies better, main- tain the schools better, etc. In reality, it's been less than a success, for many reasons. Unfortunately, for Newport Beach residents, splitting the district back into two is an impossibility. If we could, the resources generated by our property taxes would be used to directly benefit our own children and maintain our own schools, rather than spread across the district. Smith's column once again portrays Costa Mesa as a victim of Newport Beach. If this is so, why not start a grass·roots movement in your West Side neighborhood to split the district? I'd be willing to bet that given the chance, residents of Newport DON LEACH I DAl.Y PLDT Wendy Leece was passed over for the Newport·Mesa Unified School District board clerk posiUon. Beach would provide a golden para- chute for the recreated Costa Mesa School District. Heck, we might even be willing to dig deeper into our pock· ets to help pay for the divorce. Howev· er, once free of Newport Beach's abuse, the West Side would have nobody to complain dbout so I doubt it would happen. · Smith's suggestion that the present school board should apologize for hav- ing the guts to propose a long overdue bond issue to repair the schools is way oU base. Their predecessors may have, but this school board did not let main- tenance slide for years. They are faced with a cap on revenues thanks to Proposition 13, a burgeoning school population, an aging plant, and increasing costs (many of them specific to the West Side). That they have stepped up and told the commuruty the bad news as praise worthy, m my opinion. To do so in such an antitax community takes remarkable conviction. Rather than writing another "poor Costa Mesa• column, why not sunply tell the readers that the rest of the board is not supportive of Leece's religious views, and leave it at that. If the community agrees with you, they'll vote out the "bad secularists" and install people with beliefs like Leece. TOMVOGELE Newport Beach Steve Smith says the school board is arrogant for passing over Wendy Leece agaih. •How We See U-(Dec. 18) says the board did it to squelch minority opinions. Leece writes to the board that she belongs to the •group which also cares very much about the education of our children." Sorry, folks, but you've got this backward. How could anything be more arrogant than to say that you care'about the education of "our children" when Wendy Leece (hasn't always sent] her own kids to Newport-Mesa schools? The Leece kids (have gone] to private schools! How can anyone take Leece seriously when she doesn't even take our schools seriously enough to believe that they are good enough for her kids7 Thank goodness the board has enough sense to keep the hypocritical- ly nghteous Leece in check. Maybe Steve Smith and his indignant fellow West-Siders ought to channel some of that energy into finding themselves a candidate with some credibility next time ~ound, instead of just letting Leece waltz in unopposed. Or perhaps into asking Leece lQ resign, so that they can be represented by someone who actually does believe in our schools.

NOAKJ SUIWAKIZ ' ~Plot , NEWPORT BEACH -The 'city has added it.sell to the •growing list of muruopahties 'that have endorsed ·a scaled- ;down ver5ion of the proposed El Toro airport, part of an effort to get more countywide sup- port for the project. • The proposal. first suggest- ed by Supervisor Cynthia Coad, calls for El Toro to serve about 30% fewer annual pas- sengers than the original plan with noise and rughthme restnctions surular to those at John Wayne. "[The plan) would approve an airport that would meet the 2010 demand," said vice mayor Gary Adams. "If there are , needs to grow further, that issue ~will be taken up when and if the demand necessitates it." Coad 's proposal includes Jocusing El Toro on domestic markets with some limited international service to Cana- da, MeXJ.co and Central Amer- ica. lt is bei.ng presented to all ' member cities of the Orange Councy Regional Airport Authority for their endorse- ments. The councll last week agreed to continue -as New- port has for the past 30 years -accepting the burden of a growing demand for air trans- portation under John Wayne's flight path. However, members said they believed Coad's pro- posal would divide this responsibility between the two airports. Council members said they hope their endorsement of the proposal will put to rest argu- ments that Newport Beach wants John Wayne closed. They also believe the limited use of John Wayne has proved airports and residential com- munities can coexist. Putting the same standards at John Wayne in place at El Toro is a healthy compromise for the entire county, proponents say. •I think it's a good alterna- tive and a good approach, H sd.id Adams. "It's tough to plan for a 20-year planning horizon and I think it's good to take one step at time.• DON LEACH I DAILY •PILOT ON THE WATER: A paddleboarder takes advantage of tranquil conditions in Newport Harbor as Fashion Island beck- ons in background.

IN BRIEF Sister City group ready to turn eyes homeward Beachgoers find graffiti at Big Corona Police are looking for the culprits who defaced some of scenic Corona del Mar State Beach over the weekend. Beachgoers arrived Mon- day morning to find several walls and rocks pefaced with blue spray paint on the north end of Big Corona beach. Police believe the graffiti was put up sometime Sunday night or early Mon- day morning. ·we really don't see any ... graffiti in a particular part of town,• said Sgt. Fred Hei- necke ... When we do, we try to take care of it right away.• Although the graffiti was- n't painted over by late Monday, the city planned to have the work done today. Police said the graffiti appears to be the work of gang members. An anony- mous tipster called the city'~ Graffiti Hotline to infom1 them about the vandalism. No one has been arrested in connection with the crime. -GREG RISUNG • For the second year, Newport Beach group brings holiday cheer to the needy nearby. DANI:. ITT Gouurr ~Pi>! COSTA MESA -Before the children are all snug in their beds on Christmas Eve, they will get presents to open at the 0Tdnge Coast Interfaith Shel- ler. Sanla Claus arrived at the shelter a little bit early this year, with four big sacks full of brand-new goodies. HThern are Barbies, clothes, dolls, diapers and games,~ said I Lori Glover, children's program coordinator for the shelter. This year Santa was played by a group of nearly 50 New- port Beach residents who belong to the Newport Beach Sister City Assn , a volunteer group that works with New- port's three sister cities - Antibes, France; Okazttki, Japan; and Cabo San Luctts, Mexico. When the members of the association gathered for their annual holiday brunch, they each brought a little holiddy cheer for the less fortunate. "It's not jUSt so much toys, I brought diapers, rattles and lit- Ue pajama sets," said Karen Evarts, president of the group. The group understands there are things needed more than toys, she said. Although. the group's focus usually falls outside the United States, this 1S the second year members have spread holiday cheer locally, and they've found they enjoy it. "Everybody just really loves to go out and buy presents for those m need,• Evarts said .. "I suppose that's what the holiday is really all about." The bounty will be distrib- uted on Christmas Eve to the children and their parents who are staying at the shelter. The shelter offers families. couples and single women a safe place to stay for three to seven nights a month. They are provided with a bed, food , hygiene supplies, laundry facilities, transportation vouch- ers, counseling and referrals for jobs, housing placements and mental health and out- reach programs. The 118-bed shelter bas about 80 people staying under its roof, and although they have received numerous gifts for children, they still need pre- sents for adults this season. Anyone interested in mak- ing donations can contact Lon Glover at (949) 631-7213.

Wood was unbend.mg m his belief that 1t should be city-owned and run, insisting that it was sunpler. Most of the Arts Commission members, how- ever, felt this would give the city the power of censorship over clisplays. As the date for presenting lhe pro- 1 JC'Ct crept closer, Wood findlly won out when the city attorney said t1 privdte center was not legally teasit>le. While it is important to· keep the comm1ttee of Arts Commission and Library Board members united - somethlng that is no easy task in an opinion-saturated city like Newport Beach -Wood's leadership style does not please everyone. This ~ clearly the case with the recent c.Lispute between Stahr and Wood. Last month, Stahr accused Wood of riding roughshod over the Library Foundation by insisbng on fund-raising for the Arts and Educalton Center. This cuts directly into some- thmg Stahr, as founder of the first library foundation, holds dear to heart. Wood, however, denies fund-raising for the center at all and said Stahr's accusations were unfounded. "IL isn't because we've made (fund- raising] overtures," Wood said. "They've gotten wind of the idea and think it's a sound proposal for Newport Beach." City Atty. Bob Burnham investigat- ed whether Wood had a conflict of ·mterest by sitting on the library board and the corrunittee proposing the arts center, eventually deciding the.re was no problem. na.ll. • Part of the rea on for the accu a- tion is the larger dispute over ftnances, which has exploded between hbrary trustees and the foundation. Agam, Wood's handling of this situation gives some insight into his style of diplomacy. ln October, a strongly worded let- ter. believed py toundalJon members to have been drafted by Wood, threat- ened to dissolve the trustees' relation-· ship with the foundation. While the foundation raises money for books and other library necessities, it ts trustees who decide how the money is spent. The letter stated that unless "the foundation gave the trustees greater control over finances, regular finan- cial reports and reduce operating costs, members would have to clear out their offices in the library. Since then, a limited· number of trustees and foundation members have been meeting actJ.vely in an · attempt to resolve the situation, even though both groups had totally oppos- ing perspectives. Wood and Julie Ryan, both firm in their convictions that the foundation needed to meet the demands, repre- sented the trustees al these meetings An agreement has been dralted, but the foundalton has now asked for more time to review 1t before making a dec1s1on. Through all of this, however, Wood maintains he is really just an ideas man -someone who· has a distinct vision on ways of bringing the city together. He even said that if his posi- tion with the Arts and Education Cen- ter comrruttee compromised the pro- ject's future, he would step down "I have always had a desire to be involved it1 the community," Wood said. "It (may be) my idea, but one person can't do 1t You've got to click with others.• ..

But for those who played for then-second-year coach Dan Glenn at Newport Harbor, like junior setter Sienna Curci, it was extra rewarding smce Charlie Brande was Corona del Mar's coaah -and their club coach. Curci, a longtime club teammate of Olympian Bev Oden (Irvine) on Brande's Orange County Volleyball Club teams that dominated the junior circuit for years, set many a volleyball for Oden while advancing through the junior ranks with her and Brande. "(Oden) tnade me look good, 1t said Curci, a three-year starter for the Ta.rs, two-time All-Sea View ·League selection, first-team All·CIF 5-A once and a prep All-Amencan by at least one publication. "Charlie wanted to be involved in (Oden's) career, so I always got to be coached by Charlie," Curd said of the veteran volleyball guru, now the UCI men's and women's coach. So, when the '87 CIF 5-A final rolled around and Brande was staged on the other side of the net, it was extra emotional for Curd following Newport Harbor's comeback victory in five, 6-15, 11-15, 15-12, 15-5, 15-6. •tt was very satisfying," said Curci, who played in CdM-Newport CIF Girls Volleyball Final ll -following the inaugural all-Back Bay title match in 1979 (when Brande coached Newport Harbor, and won). Curo, who •agned with Cal, played four years in the Pacific 10 Conference and made All-Pac-10 twice for the Golden Bears, said the Sailors' down-two-games victory over their Back Bay nval •was a great win, and something I'll always remember." Winning, however, didn't last ' at Cal, where Curd bdcked up a player named Holly McPeak, before the future Olympian and star on the womeb's pro beach tour transferred to UCLA. Curci sat out the next season, 1990, desiring •to be a regular student," and she redshirted. But Curci said it •got real boring" without volleyball, and she returned to the court to play for Cal from 1991 to '93, all as the Bears' starting setter and perfomung as one of their all-time greats. Curci is still the Bears' career leader m aces and assists. . •rt was great to be involved in the sport of volleyball," said today's honoree in the Daily Pilot Sports Hall of Fame, celebrating the millennium. •I learned a lot from coaches, and I thank them all for what they taught me and how they helped me m life. Not just in volleyball. but the lessons taught by Dan Glenn and Charlie Brande are lessons that are going to carry me a long way ... life's lessons. Charlie was all about Life's lessons." Curci, who lives in Boulder, Colo., attended Glenn's ·wedding last sununer. She once coached with Glenn in 1994 -when the Sailors and Misty May won CIF and state Division I titles, as well as a mytlucal national championship. Curci, who graduated from UC Berkeley in December 1993, said Glenn and Brande were •two of the best coaches" she ever played for. •They prepared me well,• she said Newport Harbor was the state Division I runner-up to Irvine in 1987, as the Vaqueros won their first of back-to-back state titles with Oden, a two-time CIF Player of the Year. Jenny Evans was the Sailors' hitting star from Curd's sets on the '87 title team. "l had more winning expenences in high school and club than in college,• she said, "(With Cal's Golden Bears), we weren't as successful as far as winning. Unfortunately, we were in the Pac-10, which at the t:ime was one of the better leagues in the country. Now, there are so many good schools all over the country. Volleyball has become so popular.· Today, Curci is enjoying Colorado, where she lives with her husband, Peter Howser, ~ brother of Fritz, a Daily Pilot ~ Sports Hall of Farner.
