Silva takes :oVer Newport Beach
• Newport Coast's future
is still uncertain as the
county's redistricting
comes down to the wire.

DAILY PILOT
SANTA ANA -Newport
Beach switched county bosses
Tuesday as the Orange County
Board of Supervisors approved
new district boundaries that
moved the city into Jim Silva's
district.
However, whether Newport
Coast will also be moved into Sil-
va's district is still an open ques-
tion after the supervisors received
a letter from Secretary of State
Bill Jones tnfonning them that
Tuesday was the last day to sub-
mit the new map.
Jones' letter threw a wrench
into the county's redistricting
pfocess. County Counsel Lau-
rence Watson bad advised the
tfoard it had until Aug. 31 to sub-
mit the new map.
· With that in mind, Silva said he
.., had hoped to bring the map back
next week to make the adjust-
ment for the 2,600 or so residents
living in the coast community.
•rm not sure if we're going to
meet the guidelines of state law,•
Silva said. •Tue map is in place.
The question is, will we be able to
make the adjustments. H I can
legally do it, I will do it.•
Residents of that community,
as well as Newport Beach city
leaders, have urged the board
to put it in Silva's district. That
way, when the city completes its
likely annexation of the area in
January, Newport Beach won't be
a divided city.

Tuesday, and she
laughed.
It was on that exact South Bay
Front pier that she broke her nose
while doing a back flip in the
1930s. This is also where Birnie,
who reminisced while scoring the
Balboa Island Yacht Club's diving
competition tP1s week, learned to
swim when she, too, was a mem-
ber of the club. She made lrtends
there and wore fashionable ll\Ue
blue and white checked swimsuits
that had lace on the top piece.
Her granddaughter, Tasha Bock,
a third-generationer of the club,
was the one making friends and
swimming this time. But as a div-
ing judge and grandmother of six
(that's right, four of these grand-
kids, as well as their parents, all
grew up hanging out at the club),
Birnie was the one reminisd.ng.
"It's fun for me to watch them
grow up,• she said.
About 100 children, their par-
ents and some older-generation
alumni hung out in the sun Tues-
day to celebrate the last week of
the yacht club's 80th anniversary.
The landscape has changed

DAILY PILOT
NEWPORT BEACH -
Moving ahead with a
Greenlight vote on the Koll
Center expansion, the City
Council on Tuesday autho-rizea a special election for
Nov. 20.
The council members set
the date at their regular
council meebng with no
one speaking out against
their move or the project.
The council previously
approved the project, a
250,000-square-foot expan-
sion of the office complex,
at its July 24 meeting.
With Tuesday's acuon,
the residents will now get a
chance to decide whether
project developers will be
allowed to build their 10-
foot office tower. The
developers will pay for the
election.
Greenlight leaders have
said they will fight the Koll
pro1ect.
After the passage of the
Greenlight Initiative in
November, its supporters
were placed on an ad hoc
committee to review devel-
opments in the aty pipeline.
The Koll proJect marks
the first time the new mea-
sure will be tested. Perhaps

V-plan meeting set
for Newport Beach
The New Millennium
Group will conduct a commu-

The group is collecting sig-
natures for a ballot measure
that would change the zoning
at the base to give Orange
County the power to install
an alternative runway layout
at the base.
The group hopes to get the
measure, known as the
Orange County Reasonable
Airport initiative, on the bal-
lot in March . To do that,
71,206 valid signatures must
be collected by Sept. 18.
Under the group's propos-

at the northern end of the air-
field. The two runways would

Dozens of concerned resi-

For Santa Ana, which was tied with
Big Canyon at the tum at 1-under, there
were no bogeys on its card, but, more
importantly, it had a supportive gallery
in tow.
-There were two good galleries and the

The Jones Cup was created by this
sports section as an effort to celebrate the
men's club champions in the Daily Pilot
circulation, while provtding the Newport·
Mesa community with a unique
opportunity of joining all four private
country clubs in a one-day, 18-bole event.
And, like the Tea Cup Classic for
women, the four clubs rotate as host site
and share ownership of the event. In the
Jones Cup, each dub 1s responsible for
selecting its own team. as long as the pro
is a full-time member of the staff and the
amateur a member of the club.
In the inaugural Jones Cup, one stroke
-separated champion Mesa Verde (2-under

one shot was the difference between Santa
