" SERVING THE NEWPORT -MESA COMMUNmEs SINCE 1907 WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 19, 2000 NOTEBOOK st eve. marble A lost soul finds, and returns, a little love TI is a story of rehabili- tion and triwnph, a ory of a lost soul who -though it was hard to see at first -made a difference. When I f¥st met Morgan, she was in lock-down at the far edge of the county animal shelter, a place of steel and wire mesh and concrete. This is where they bring the castoffs, the hopelessly lost, the malcontents, the unloved, those who just haven't qwte bad a fair shake in life. Morgan wasn't the kind of dog you were inst:il)ctively drawn to. She sat, slack-jawed in the back of a pen, withdrawn, brooding.

My daughter, though, had a soft spot for the unfortu- nates of the world. She want- ed the dog, she named the dog right then and there and -sure enough -that dog came home with us that day. The workers at the pound didn't know much about Mor- gan, only that she'd been found wandering. Maybe she'd been dumped, maybe she was lost, or maybe she'd just opted to strike out on her own one day. She was part shepherd, part Alata, part whatever -a dog with an uncertain identity and a hazy past. And all ours. For two days, she sat m the backyard, hunched over under a leaky faucet: Jetting the water drip on her head. "Maybe she's retarded,~ my wife ventured. I said that was a pretty good bet. She slowly emerged from her shell, but her institutional past was never far off. She cowered when you pet her. She ran away when you offered food.

The oty granted an encroachment perrmt dllowmg the wall, altjlough neighbors com- plained that it blocked motoristS' views and was a Sd.fcty hazard. The latest disagreement stems from a penrut issued in the 1960s. The permit calls for an ek1'Tlentary school, but some neighbors argue the day-care center operation doesn't comply with that pro- vision. "We do feel they have made some great efforts to address our conceTT1S, • she said. The residents were mostly worried about an increase in traiflc on Bayside Drive and noJSe from the pro- posed resort. • Proposed Newport Dunes Resort Hotel gatehouse entry on Bayside Drive. The gate- house would be staffed 24 hours a day by the resort. A study session involving comnuss1on members, neigh- bors and operators of the Southcoast Early Childhood Learrung Center was held Monday night. Commission members listened to both sides and decided they will direct aty staff to review the JSsue once more at their Jan. 24 meeting. • Ldmm's letter addressed all of the neighbors' concerns, but that hasn't stopped thetr effort. , ·It's dtfhcult to listen to hear someone attack you,• said Sheryl Hawkinson, who runs the day-care center "The issues are constantly changing to the point where we don't know what the real problem is. It just keeps drag- ging on.· In a signed agreement to the Planning Commission - which is still reviewing the project's environmental report -association leaders #extended a vote of confi- dence to the project develop- ers of the Dunes.• This Is good news for pro- ponents of the new resort hotel, who. have endured countless community meet- ings tor more than a year and a half m an attempt to gain their neighbors' sup- port.1 The Dunes project propos- es a 400-room, 100-unit time- share resort with 55,000 square feet C>f conference space. It is estimated that the hotel would generate $1.3 ·million a year to the city. If approved, the resort would be built within the next five years. The compromise between the parties was twofold. The first is the construction of a gatehouse on Bayside Drive in front of the existing entrance to the commuruty, which currently has no stop sigri or traffic signal The idea is that as vehicles entering the hotel stop at the gate- house, it will be easier for motorists and pedestrians to cross Bayside Drive. The gatehouse would be moni- tored 24 hours a day by Dunes staff. The other revision would be to move the proposed sound wall -planned to be erected between the new resort ti.nd the mobilP. home community -back 30 feet toward the Dunes. Project proponents also suggested add.mg a 15-foot landscaped bulfer and pushing back some of the proposed build- ings hve to 15 feet. 1t is hoped this will enhance Baystde Vil- lage's privacy. "!,Jn sure we'll still h'cive some unhappy residents, but I think we've met the con- cerns of the ma1onty," sc1.ld Tun Quinn, Dunes pro1ect manager. However, there are still many residents in other parts of the city that have voiced concerns about the proposed resort, particularly traffic issues. Quinn said project propo- nents are resed!ching dlter- natives m hope of solving Dover Shores residents' con- cerns about noise and views. What irks the center's operators is that the city staff had already stated their opin- ions to a list of complaints by neighbors.

Then she sprinted off again, this time shl.fti.ng gears and vanishing. As always, she was even- tually rounded up and we redoubled our efforts to break through the demons that seemed to guide her. But the other day she got sick anq the vet said it was time for some tough decisions. Her kidneys had failed. She proba- bly bad cancer. She couldn't eat She could barely walk.

The group, which1ssupport- ing a S0C9nd Orange County airport in an effort to keep John Wayne Ailport .from expand- ing, is convinced that antiair- port organhations are trying to scare Newport Beach residents with the threat of noise from El Toro.

MESA -Nick Cabico, who played three varsity sports as a Costa Mesa Higb freshman last year, before transferring to Mater Dei, said he plans to return to the Mustangs Jan. 3-1. The 5-foot-8, ll.5-pound sophomore, who started at tailback and outside line- backer for Mater Dei's Serra League champion sopho- more football team; said he will finish out the fall semes- ter, whiCh ends Jan. 28, at the Santa Ana parochial school. He then plans to begin classes at Mesa Jan. 31 . Cabico, believed to be the first Mustang freshman to play varsity football, bas· ketball and baseball, said the financia'l commitment required for his older broth- er Jason to attend Brown University next fall, made paying tuition at Mater Dei problematic. "I'm going to see a lot of my old friends," said Cabi- co, who will also reunite with baseball teammates as the Mustangs' No. 1 starting pitcher. · A former Llttle League legend, Cabico opened on the junior varsity last spring; but emerged as the No. 2 varsity starting pitcher, behind senior All-CIF stand- out Ruben Mancilla. Cabico threw a complete- game seven-hitter in the Mustangs' 5· 1 victory over Duarte in the first round of the CIP Southern Section Division IV playoffs last sea- son. It was the Mustangs' first playoff win sIDce 1962. Cabico, a right-han~er, also started_ the CIF quarter- final loss to Bl Segundo. He finished 3-5 with a 4.93 ERA and 43 strikeouts in 54 varsi- ty innings. "We have a No. 1 pitcher, now,• baseball coach Kirk Bauermeister said. "We had a lot of question marks before. And he can do a lot of things. He'll probably be our leadoff hitter.• Cabico starred on the Mesa freshmen football team and was called up to the var- sity for its CIP Dmsion VI playoff loss to Irvine in '98. He carried seven times for 26 yards in his only varsity appearartce and was expect- ed to be a focal point of Coach Jerry Howell's offense, before becoming a Monar~. He stood out on the Mon- archs' 8-1-1 sophomore squad and Joined the varsity for Mater Dei's four-game run to the CIF Division I crown last fall. He played in the first-round playoff victo- ry over Redlands. "He can play running back, wide receiver, even quarterback,• Howell said. "And, defensively, we'll look at him at safety and comer- back. "He's a kid who can help us on both sides of the ball.• Cabico scored 39 points in 15 games with Mesa's varsity baU.etball team as a freshman. He did not play basketball at Mater Dei. He is currently working out with Mater Dei's junior varsity baseball team. HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS SOCCER Mesa, Laguna Beach in 1-1 standoff • Day's second·half score brings Mustangs even with Artists in Pacific Coast League duel. COSTA MESA -Sharon Day scored off an assist from Julie Kroening for Costa Mesa Higb's girls soccer team in Tuesday's 1-1 tie with Laguna Beach in Pacilic Coast League action.
