Yet Councilman [Tod) Ridge- way says it "stops develop- ment.• It does not stop devel- opment, but just lets us stick to our plan. Councilwoman (Norma) Glover calls it •a slow- growth policy,• but the initia- tive does not establish any policy at all. It merely lets the voters establish our policy. Glover assumes voters will select slow growth. U that ls what she thinks the voters want, why isn't she for it? Councilman [Gary) Adams says "it' will essentially elimi- nate all general plan amend- ments.• But the Ieriord shows that 80% of the general plan amendments are so small they wouldn't be affected. Only 20% would be put to a vote. and most of those would pass. Maybe 4 o/o would be turned down. Does Adams think that 4 % is •essentially all?" No one can, disagree with Councilmen (John) Noyes, (Dennis) O'Neil, or [Tom) Thompson, who tell us their plans for voting. Undoubted- ly, their reports are accurate. . Councilwoman (Jan) Debay argues against the ini- tiative on the premise that Irvine will build less office buildings if Newport Beach builds more. This clearly shows the advantage of leav- ing the major decisions to the voters, not mariy of whom will be influenced by such quaint notions. · The purpose of the cumu- lative 80% provision is to keep a big general plan amendment from being slipped through piecemeal as a string of small amend- ments. For example, five amendments each for 100 dwelling units could be made in rapid succession to allow 500 new dwelling units with no vote of the people. But as the initiative is writ- ten, 80 from the first amend- ment would be counted against the second, so the second could only be 20 units to escape a vote. Then 16 of those 20, plus the original 80, would be'counted against the third so the third amend- ment could only be 4 units to escape a vote. So the 100- unit limit could be stretched to 124 by makinV piecemeal amendments. This degree of stretch was deemed acceptable. • AU.AN IHK Is • proponent of the Protection from Traffk and Density Initiative In Newport Beach. VOL 94. NO. 15 THOMAS H. JOHNSON.

T he Costa Mesa City Council bas supported a skoteboard . park for a long time. But one of the first and foremost concerns was the question of how the city .would pay for the facility. When the idea of a skateboard park was first raised by former Mayor'Peter Buff a, it was on the heels of the downturn in the state's economy. Funds became ·scarce as cuts in the state's budget resulted in the city's loss in rev- enues. The less-than-glowing economy only fueled what was a . ' dismal fiscal picture. Only recently have we seen the state's economy unprove, resulting in a rosier picture for Costa Mesa's budget. As a result of net revenue allocations last spring, we now have seed money for the skate- board park. Liability also was a major con- cern. A disturbing trend in law has held cities accountable for acci- dents at their beaches, parks and other recreational facilities. Given the nature of skateboard~ ing, the city was quite concerned · about the possibility of lawsuits resulting from skateboarding atci· · dents that might occur at a city park. In 1997, the state Legislature passed Assembly Bill 1296, which granted immunity to public entities COMMUNITY C 0 M.M l 'N T 11 Y lindo dixon - and public employees with respect to skateboarding by including the activity under the definition of · •hazardous recreational activities.• This legislation became_ effective Jan. 1, 1998, thus allaying another . concern regarding the park. As far as the implication that the Hamilton Street-Charle Drive area was an unsafe place "to shove a skateboard park," the Costa Mesa Police Department has worked diligently to reduce crime in ow city. To imply that we are not patrolling an area and would not continue to work to make all areas of Costa Mesa safe for all residents is insulting. It is the City Council's preroga- tive to review recommendations, do further .research and make deci- sions. Mike Schaefer was appoint- ed to make suggestions; he was not promised that ~ recommendations would always be instituted. The decision not to select the Llom PArk or TeWinkle Park site was determined on the basis or tact, not pressuie. Schaefer seems to have ignored some very valid points that were made iii reference to tl\ese sites ThWinkle Park has an array of actiVltles taking place on a daily basis and during the sununer the activities increase. Lions Park will have a new doWT1town center with additional parking that will take up more green space than the area can afford to lose. That park serves Girls Inc., an after-school program, the neighbor- hood children and numerous sports activities. To rob the neighborhood of park green space when there are alternatives for a skateboard park in town would not be the right choice. At our public bearings, we heard from many Costa Mesa residents claiming that a skateboard park in their neighborhood would not be appropriate for numerous reasons. As a matter of fact, we heard "from a member of the Parks, Parkways and Recreational Facilities Com- mission, who stood before us and asked us to not consider a skate- board park in the park adjacent to his •packyard" for whafhe consid- ered valid reasons. '"Stop whining about skaters being perceived as delinquents. I have two sons. Although they are now older, they skated for years, wore skater clothes and a skater hairdo, and loved to skate any- where they could. One of my sons continues to skate at the Hunting- ton Beach park whenever he has the opportunity. Very few imply that skaters are rotten kids. I believe the concerns from some adults stem from the fact that skaters group together and use public area"S to test tl\eir skills. It is very important to point out that Costa Mesa is well ahead of most cities in the state in the design and construction of a park that will benefit many of our young people. I~ ada a new and innovative · ension to the '· " recreational opportunities offered by Costa Mesa. In addition, the Costa Mesa City Council recognizes a need for a second park and has taken prelimi- nary steps to address that need. We have begun discussions with mem- bers of the school board to locate a possible site on a local campus and we have approached the Orange County Fair board to consider a park when determining the land use at the fairgrounds. I am happy to hear that a group of concerned parents ls working together to make a difference. Par- ents must be involved in order to accomplish goals that meet the needs of our children. We have a wonderful city and we can make it even better by helping with the social and athletic needs of our childre n. • LINDA DIXON Is a member of the Costa Mesa Crty Council.

As a citizen of Costa Mesa, I am proud of City Manager Allan L. Roeder and the City Council for putting our city in this enviable position. . JUDITH M. GIELOW Costa Mesa The roads in Costa Mesa are appalling. They need repair--permanent repair, not just recoating. The rest of the money ... should be returned to the taxpayers. a.AV PARRILL Costa Mesa It would be nice to start fixing some of the roads, which are getting pretty bad, especially in the Mesa Verde area where I live. Some of the roads are really bad. , MARtO BONURA Costa Mesa I would like to see the city fix Pomona Street between Victoria and Wilson streets. They did Pomona between Victoria and 19th streets, but they never did the little short end between Wil- son and Victoria, and it is full of potholes. l DON LEACH I DAILY PILOT Andrew Lawrence makes his way down one of the trails at Falrvlew Park, which could be a be!lefidary of Costa Mesa's projected $1.6-mllllon budget surplus. I notice that they are constantly fixing Mesa Verde and some of the other streets in the wealthier parts of town. So it would be kind of nice if they would fix that street. Also, all of the little side streets along there and the sidewalk in that residential section are all bumped up and in really bad shape It would be nice if they could fix those sidewalks in our section of town. PEGGY THORPE .. Costa Mesa J think it would be a wonderful idea to pave those few dirt alleys on the east side of Costa Mesa. Those alleys are a hazard for everybody. People are drag raang at all times of the day through them. A nighttime, at several locations those speeders almost killed members of my family and pet because they race through there..It also is very dark there. In the summer, they are a dust bowl and in the rainy sea.son we could really rum our boats in our alley. So paving them would really help beautify it and make the neighborhood much safer for everyb¢y. That might be a nice idea for My wish would be for the city buy Balearic Park: I walked the other day with my two kids and had all the residents that I could get sign a petition. Nobody wants to see it go. I believe the city should buy it. You would not see Newport Beach or Irvine giving up their parks and selling it to anyone else. They always make sure that they have plenty of parks for their neighbors and their community. bushes where there should be sidewalks. it forces many joggers, walkers and senior citizens to use the street, which at times ls very danger- ous. Please complete the sidewalks in the city before undertaking new projects. JACKIE HEADLY Costa Mesa I live in the College Park area and I feel that the city needs to fix our streets badly. We have a lot of roads around the College Park area that ere literally disintegrating. I don't understand why they haven't bothered to fix them. They came through and fixed the sidewalks years ago, but the roads are still a mess. good use for that money.

Doily Pilot Misadventures spur hatred for canned , peas and carrots I ha~ canned peas and ca.IJots. This isn't just a simple dislike of those vegetables. 1bis is a deep, physiological hatred. The core of this emotion can be traced to my youth when I worked for a restau- . · rant called the Green Dragon in Balboa. The Green Dragon was a class operation. Our blue-plate special will give the reader a taste of the place. The blue-plate special · went for 35 cents and fea- tured a breaded veal cutlet, long on bread, short on veal cutlet. It was served on a heavy blue plate that was divided into three compart~ men ts. In compartment No. 1 was the breaded veal cutlet. 1bis chef's masterpiece ,.as cov~ ered with a thick, ·tasteless gravy. ,r • ln the second compart- ment was the salad. Oh1 what a culinary delight was our famous salad. The cook chopped up a 5-gallon can of lettuce early in the morning. The dressing was supposed to be mayonnaise, but the only resemblance to that dre'fsing was that it was white. The Green Dragon's mayonnaise· had the texture, appearance and taste of Mille of Magnesia. It was poured over the lettuce -wliich was not chilled or ref(igerat- ed in any way and accord- ingly was the same tempera- ture as the kitchen in which it reposed. .. In the third compartment of the blue plate resided a large spoonful of canned pE!as and carrots. In the morning, the cook -an ill- tem~red man named Jaclc -opened a 5-gallon can of peas and carrots and dished them out during the day to . fill up that third compart-· 1 ment. I We waiters and counter . men yelled.6)Ut..-1trdeIS""tb' the"\ ,.'cook through a 3~ot opening int~,the kitchen. , Well, one day I said or did ~-:-~illM!~·n1g that snapped the alw · -trigger temper of the cook, he t4few a . whole plate full of canned peas and carrots at me. Nimbly, .I duck~d and thus avoided quick and prema- ture decapitation. Not con- . tent with my escape, I then sneered at the cook and said, •Yeah, yeah, you missed me. n The cook, who was pretty · big, reached'through the opening through which the canned peas and carrots bad gone and said, "Pick them THE VERDICT robert gordner up, each one of them individ- ually." I corisidered refusing, but the cook was not only big, lie_ also was more impor· tant to Ute restaurant than· me. Rather than lose my job, I spent the next half an hour on my hands and knees picking up each pea and each piece of carrot from around our customers' feet. It was very embarrassing. My next misadventure · involving canned peas and carrots occurred in Gua.H\ durin9 World War II. It was between operations, and a group of us got some seeds from the states and grew a vegetable garden in the jungle. We worked our fannies off clearing the jungle, planting and growing our vegetables. These would be the first fresh vegetables we had tast- ed since we left home. . Finally, after much effort, our vegetable garden matured. We loaded our- selves with fresh tomatoes, carrots, string beans and peas and trooped to the mess · tent. We threw our harvest down on a table and could hardly wait for the cook to congratulate us on our efforts. Alas, the cook 1n Guam had a disposition like the cook in the Green Dragon. Instead of showing enthusi- asm for the job we h~ne, the cook swept our vegeta- bles off.the table and on to the dirt. Then he reached back, pulled o'r1t a 5-gallon can, openlRLit wi\b three whacks of a cleaver and snarled, "This is what you're- getting for dinner. I ain't got time to cook those vegeta- bles." You guessed il In the 5- gallon can were peas and car- rots. And that's why I hate canned peas and carrots. • RoeERT GAIU>NUt Is a .Corona del Mar resident and former judge. His column runs Tuesdays.

How much pressure will be on Cd.M to make it to the finals (March 18)? If tournament officiais are looking for a good gate, having the Sea Kings or Peninsula's Panthers in the finals will help. Most of the schools are coming from out of town and will probably bring a limited crowd, especially the teams from the East Coast.

Perhaps lost m much of the well-deserved fanfare the Costa Mesa High boys basketball progrdm has received during . it's 16-4 start, has been the noteworthy turnaround of the 14-4 Corona del Mel! girls. In his thlid season as coach, former Southern CaWorrua College (now Vanguard U) standout Elbert Davis has instilled a consiStent work ethic and a growing confidence. Combined with unproved talent, persoruJied·by the solid season being turned .In by junior Kristin McCoy, the former Sea View League doormat has won 11 of 12 and become a Paahc Coast Leagu~ title contender The 14 wins, heachng~into tonight's home date with University, d.re one more than the program produced in Davis' first two seasons combined . CdM's showdown with Costa Mesa, Thursday on the Mustangs' floor, will detemune whtch of the circwt's top two teams has the inside track to the title. As first-year coach Bob Serven will attest, there's - plenty of competition standing between the Mesa boys team and the first league championship in its 40-season varsity history. But the resurgence of the Mustangs has helped make t{le newly aligned PCL the toughest boys drcwt, top to bottom, in Orange County. In case you didn't notice, all four Newport-Mesa District boys basketball teams were ranked m thei.r respective CIF Southern Section dlvisions last week. by all accounts a historic occurrence Cd.M, Mesa and Estancia were ranked fourth, ftfth and 10th, respectively, m Ill-A, while Newport Harbor was No. 10 m II-AA. The Sailors were al!>o No. 10 in the county. All four dlstrlct boys ~ basketball programs have already surpassed the 10-win plateau, which piqued my interest as to how many PRE borry foulkner s tunes 1t had happened before. I was surprised to learn it' has occurred eight tunes before tlus season {1973, '75, '77, '79, 'BO, '82, '83 and '94J. With a healthy part of the regular season, as well as the playoUs, still ahead, distnct schools have combined for 54 Vtctones. But with three schools aligned in the scime league, forcmg them to beat up on one another, approaching the combined 'Newport-Mesa single-~dson victory record of 77 in 1985 could be problematic. Thul 1985 camprugn saw Estancia win 25, Newport 24, CdM 19 cmd Costa Mesa rune. Northwood HJgh's recent dera1on to play varsity football next fall wasn't the best of news for Estancia Coach Dave Perlons. It's not that Perklns or his players dlc fearful about thei.r ability to compete Wlth the lrvme-based Tunberwolves. Rather, the game fills out Estancia 's schedule, ruin.mg the Eagles' chance of operung the nP.w rrullennium with a game in Hawati. "We're red.lly mad we can't go to Hawaii, now,• Perkins said At Northwood's request, the 2000 Pacific Coast 'League schedule was altered from 1ts original form, further i.rking Perkins. After the adjustment. the Eagles will play only two league games at home for the third straight season The Eagles made three changes in theu 2000 nonleague schedule.
