Randall Smith and her son, who lived on the property with her, had let the house get into such a state of disrepair, the duo had to sleep in a trailer in the backyard because the house was unfit to live in. Elaine Davis, who grew up in tti~ bui!ding, sorts through the contents of the Old Pink House in this photo from 2001 . Sandi Benson, the city's chief code enforcement t>fficer, said the house was in a deplorable condition, caused by years of neglect. When code enforcement entered the decrepit structure they found five sick. mangy dogs living among, literaµy tons of trash and their own feces. OVergrown weeds and indescribable amounts of junk bid the true be~uty of the classic home. General contractor lgal Israel, who was hired to do the seismic retrofitting ror the house, said there are only a couple dozen homes like this left in Costa Mesa. wThey just don't build them like this anymore," Israel said. Builders did not have the use of power tools and were forced to handcraft each piece of wood. Many draftsman also made their own nails, be said. The house was built from cherrywood, which was its saving grace because its strength protected it from termite damage. experts said. "To watch the transformation and be able to save the house is a wonderful asset to the community," said Benson, who has kept tabs on the project By late afternoon, nearly 200 people bad oonverged on the padc to listen to music and • advan- tage of the informational displays.

The lavish kitchen touts traditional cherrywood cabinets and luxurious marble counters and flooring. A large oil painting. depicting a setting of centuries past, further adds to the classic mood. Just inthes away. a very large and modem stainless steel refrigerator adds a contemporary touch to the richly designed kitchen. The upstairs bathroom exhibits the same dichotomy. Outfitted in earth-toned tiles, placed perfectly in detailed designs, the room stays true to its history-even down to the hand-painted French "doorknobs -but boasts a hidden 21st century luxury. "That's a Jacuui bath tub," Ware said. And so goes the rest of the house. The walls carry rich cherrywood and hand-carved moldings conceal modem day luxuries such as central air conditioning and heat and brand new plumbing and electrical wiring. The bedrooms have a timelessly classic look., decorated in luxurious colors and plush fabrics, yet flaunt a spla:sh of present style, with a leopard-throw pillow. Ware mixes his affinity for a traditional look with bachelor style to create a distinctive atmosphere. He also brings fresh blood to the community and bis neighbors say they are thrilled to have him there. Viola and Tony Forillo, who have lived across the street from the house since 1942, said Ware introduced himself to the neighborhood shortly after he bought the property. The Forillos welcomed their new neighbor with open arms. .. He's a really likable person," Tony Forillo said ... A real sh;up guy." The Forillos also couldn't ignore the fact that their property values are sure to rise now that the neighborhood blemish has been transformed.

They're still learning the ways of the world and often don't know what's best It's simply part of growing up. ,, drinking, then, indeed. a breathalyzer can help prove it. So, we create ideas and set guidelines that help us look after their well-being. But sometimes, despite our best intentions, we go too far. And that's exactly the case as the Newport-Mesa Unified School District looks into requiring all students to adhere to breathalyzer tests at school functions like proms and dances. Most would agJee that teens have limited rights. Still, that doesn't mean we can violate the rights they do have. They, like all of us, still have the right to privacy, a right to be considered innocent until proven guilty, a right to due process. Drinking and driving is an acknowledged tragedy among young teens, ~ut other innocents should not have their rights trampled on because of a That's been the district's policy for that last two years, and it's legitimate. But school district officials ·need to stick to that policy. Will some students still squeak through as a result? Yes. But there are other solutions that need to be created, explored and then , perhaps, practiced. For example, more chaperons can probably help seek out those problem few. Communication with other students, too, may help find troublemakers. Most irnnortant of all. though, reinforcing the disastrous effects of drinking and driving, also, can help prevent many children from using and abusing alcohol But in sum. the district needs to explore different avenues rather than punish everyone because of a problem few. We 'll just have to get by with less this year F or a time, it seemed this fall's Costa Mesa City Council election would be a highly charged, highly combated fight Much like two years ago, a dozen or so residents were weighing possible runs. Debate about the Westside, redevelopment, the city's support of charities, code enforcement and other issues was starting to swirl. But come last week's filing deadline, much of that promise disappeared. in the end, just five candidates chose to run for two seats: Council members Unda Dixon and Gary Monahan, who are seeking reelection; Planning Commissioners Kaltina Foley and Bill Perkins; and Westside activist and Human Relations Committee member Allan Mansoor. Instead of an election with a varied cast of voices, Costa Mesa residents now have to choose among candidates who all have some degree of City Hall ties. Mansoor is closest to "outsider" status, but just weeks ago he was nominated for the chairmanship of the Human Relations Committee, a post he declJned. Instead of great choice, voters are going to have few decisions to make. The wide range of issues that might have been highlighted by "fringe" candidates or those running with a focused agenda is likely to be replaced by a narrow "marketplace of ideas" that rests with just a handful of hopefuls. Oearly, parts of Costa Mesa are not going to have a candidate speaking for them this election. Ultimately, the di.scUssion will be limited to what these five want to debate. Certainly, there is benefit to having a smaller field of candidates. The cacophony that often follows a large crowd of council aspirants won't be missed Debates promise to be fuller, more detailed, especially in comparison to the rapid-fire forums that bad to be held two years ago in order to give all the candidates equal time. It also is possible that the two candidates who win will have a clear mandate from voters, rather than rising to the top in a crowded field where, we have seen, a few votes can make a dramatic difference. But those benefits are sadly overwhelmed by what voters have lost by the decisions of Joel Faris, Heather Somers, BW 1\uplt and others to be non-candidates this fall.

Costa Mesa needs to fmd 'harmony and compatibility' By Chrl1 Kerins I am writing to voice my support for the Vida family of Sumatra Place whoee plans for a second-story addition were.rejected by the Planning Commilalon ("Commissioners reject home-addition plan," Wednesday). I te111e our city is teetering on the edge of a alippery slope called "Harmony and Compatibility." The by i8sue la that our code asks for eubjecttve aiteria: Harmony and Compadbillty. Defining these terms is not the IOlution. eliminating them is. Hvert If one could come to a consensus for the definition of these terms, what is the context? Harmonious with the hnmedlate neighbors? Compatible with the 1treet, the neighborhood or Mesa Verde? Or perhaps a new design should be harmonious with the Ideal Costa Mesa in my mind. That is my goal as I wind up a renovation of my 1926 Eastslde bungalow. Should I have instead made it harmonious with my 1960s Ranch-style neighbor'? Or perhaps with the drab-style house with chain link fencing across the way? Each new addition and building should add positive character to the neighborhood. not be restricted to the · status quo. If good design is what we as a city want, perhaps a design review committee with trained designers and architects ls the way to go. That way, the process can be guided rather than guessed at/ Which fets me back to the point of this. The bottom line of giving subjective tenns like "harmonious" and "compatible" to city staJJ and officlals just gives them license to say. "I don't like IL" What homeowner or even architect can guess what ls ln someone else's head? Commissioner Walt Davenport is right on target belng concerned that they are relying on a subjective part of the code, yet he voted to reject the plan. The commission should instead be rejecting that line of the code. And, Councilman GarY Monahan, a growing family ln a three-bedroom house cannot afford to test the code in court. The city must do the right thing instead. •CHAIS KEAWS la• Costa Mesa resident.

Taking a bow as . foUndation's leader Mary Lonich, the new executive director of the Balboa Performing Arts Theater Foundation, talks about her plans for the venue's future and the challenges she will face .. T he Balboa Performing Arts Theater Foundation announced last week that it had completed its six-month search for an executive director when it hired Mary Lonich of San Jose. The reinvention of the Balboa Peninsula theater has been a dream for about seven years now and has endured what Lonich dubs Hhiccups." But Lonich, who started the job July 15, has enthusiasm and a plethora of ideas for making the dream a reality. On Friday, City Editor James Meler sat down with Lonich outside a nearby coffee shop overlooking the water and discussed her new job, the challenges, the solutions and the future of the East Balboa Boulevard venue. You started a month ago. but the poeJtlon had been vacant (or about six months before that. Wu there a lot of catchlng up to dot I think whenever you're new to an organization, it's not so much catch-up. It's really taking the time to talk to enough people to understand where the organization's at And that's really what I've spent the good majority of my time doing -talking everything from staff to board members to those who have made major investments in the organization, city officiaJs and then just some general people in the community. Sometimes. I'll just walk into a coffee shop and I'll ask someone I don't even know what they know about the theater project. I want to capture what the people in the area know about the project and where is it really at. As well as going through the financial records and some of the recent history. So that's really where I've spent my time. (Thursdayl was one month to the day I started and I made my initial preliminary proposals to the board of directors. I captured what I heard and put it into some action plans. You'll hear me talking about putting things in place that are consistent with good in- dustry business practices. That's really what I'm trying to do with all of the things I'm putting in place. Tblt project, whUe a wonderful dram wtth eventu.oy a..-• result. hM nm Into 10me eetNcb and ot.c.cles What convinced you to take ltonf rarst of all, projects have bumps and hiccups. They're very ryplcaJ. It would · be very unusual from the start of a major project like this to just have everything go from swt to finish without left or right turns. or ups or downs. It's very typical or a project. So I don't think there's anything unusual about that One of the thinp that might be unusual Is the fact that typically those ups and downs, right and left turns aren't something that Is neoessarily so public. But when you bave a small community like this, all of a audden. all of those things become very public knowledge. And. of coune, that's not necesaarily bed. but the interesting piece of that is that the general public isn't intimately imoJved in the project so they're looking at it from the peripheral and don't neceasarily know or understand why some of these things are .happening and whether they're good or bad from the project. So l don't think there's anything untypical, Jwrt other than that It's been.a little more public. Why I took it beQuse there is a tremendoul potential. l mMD thla 1s a place where you talk to peOple tbroulboot Oranp Cowtty md • meodon the Balboa Theater and RWlY. many people have r99ly fond memortel of the e.lboa Theater.

And the object is, and one or the things you going to stan seeing gel with this project. the best thing you can do is get people together and get their ideas on a table and collaboratively come up with the ultimate vision th.at everyone can put their arms around and work for. Then you have a real cohesive group or people who all buy into the vision. all are willing to put time and energy into maldng that vision come to be, so I can tell you that some of the recommendadons I made to the board involve just that. It's maldng sure that those that made major investments in the organization are pan or the process in shaping the organization. We should be meeting with them all the time one on one. They should know exactly where we are. We should be seeking their advice. These people are good busin~ people. They have a lot to share with the organization that we can benefit from. So let's get those people on board and stay very, very close to them. Let's make sure they have every opportunity to give and share their advice and that we have every opportunity to share with them everything we're doing. That's one piece of it The other piece is taking the board - and we have 15 board members. hardly what I would call a huge board -the unique opportunity we ~ is each of those people brings expertise to the organization that we can ut:.iltte in a better way than we are. So you take those individuals and you take their expertise and you put them as a leader in charge or a team. They then are charged LO go Out to the greater community and get people to wotk with them in their partk:ular aiea of expertise that they're working toward for the theater. Now all of a sudden' you've engaged people from the broader community-not just the peninsula -who care about the project, who have ideas for the project. We take all of those Ideas. we put them lo a bucket and we wor:k with them. That's bow you end up with a good protect. You need to be open to everybody'l ldeu.

I believe that corporations look for places like this where they can bring their employees and have meetings. So they're looking for a setting where they can have a professional presentation/meeting structure. But at the same time, they're looking for someplace they can entertain their employees after the meeting -so to take them out deep sea-fishing. sailing. to be able to go out to a restaurant or spend the night-and I t.hJnk this area provides a great opportunity for that So one of the things l don't want to forget Is -just as we get together the users - I think we need to reach out to the corporations and say "You may not have thought about the Balboa Peninsula in this way, but can we get a couple or you follc.s together and talk about what you really look for, and then see how we can build that into our project as well# What are 10me sbort-tenn goaJ. at this polntf My short-teTUJ goals are to transform the organization into a professional organization. I think we have to be there to really get to where we want to be. And what does that include? It's everything from creating a productive workspace to identifying administrative skills needed and hiring accordingly to building a board structure that enables us to fully utilize the expertise on the board. to make sure that the standards we've developed for board membership are consistent with the best practices in our industry, to make sure that we're following good development practice - which means involving our investors, involving the community. Fund-raising isn't really about just going out and asking for money. It's about engaging people in what you're doing. And truly, if we're going to be a venue that serves the greater Orange County, then we need to engage the greater Orange County. We need as an organization to understand that, as professionals, you put benchmarlts and measures in place and that we report on your successes and achievements as opposed to what it can be.

There's no question in my mind that it can tWc.e life. It's absolutely going to happen. And we will put out there a timeline. And we will commit to certain fund-raising objectives and timelines. That will happen. One of the recommendations I put forward to the board was that we put some standing comminees in place as well as some as these teams in place. But the standing committees are going to address some of these things. There's now a standing committee for development, which is really fund-raising. What's going to feed into that is some or the input we're getting from the community. The users group should feed into our business plan. Some or the task teams are working on different things. We're doing a market analysis. a very important piece in developing the busin~ plan. Now, again, we have a preliminary business place that was put in place. We need to revisit that and we need to make sure it's aligned with wb~re we think we can go after we get the input and do the homework we need to do. How much bas been l'1IMed eo fart 1Wo point three million. not inducting the purchase or the theater by the city. The goal out there now is $6.S million. but we need to make sure that's absolutely accurate. You know one of the things that's something the public is interested in. A strategic decision that the organization made that 1 believe is a very good decision is the difference between is this going to be a film house or a multiuse venue. And I can tell you that when they first got behind this project. the original thought wu we11 bring back to life this film house and we'll renovate the theater to bring back this film house. I think It was a very, very smart business decision to transfonn that from a film house into a multiuse venue because I think you need to look at the long-term. And you don't to put something up as a film house and. in five years, have trouble. I think a multiuae ~ue really allows them the Oexibllity to eerve a lot more people and do a lot of different things. That's one of thole thAnp that nMI)' have looked like bump in the ro.d. but I think it WU 8 very FQd strate8ic decision to do that.

By Roser Carlson Daily Pilot M any of the treasures of Heritage Hall at Newport Harbor High once lie strewn in a Dempsey Dumpster, but the Sailors' original coach and athletic dlrector, Ralph Reed, rescued the material, stowed it in bis garage and hoped for better days to come. It was in the '70s that Daily Pilot Sports viewed Reed's treasures, stacked from noor to ceiling in his ga· rage. packed away like so many bales of cotton, and be told of his treasures and the need to hold on to the past By 1980 when the Sailors had their school's 50th anniversary, Fabian Gi· roux came to the forefront and began "little Heritage Hall,• featuring Coach Reed's teams, and a couple of years later a math teacher, the department head. Webster Jones, emerged and be- gan taking inventory for Giroux. "One day (in 1984) Mr. Giroux was showing the place to some people," said Jones. Jack KoU (a former New· port Harbor student} was there and he noticed some sketches and asked, "What are these? Plans? Jack Koll picked up on the Idea and went to his dad, Don KoU, of building reputation, and in a very short time, a check for $25,000 was presented. Walkie Ray did the contracting and Rolly Pulaski designed Heritage Hall. -We thought it might take $25,000, • said Web Jones. • but the costs came to $50,000. Web Jones is the caretaker of the Heritage Hall at Newport Harbor High School, which contains memorabilia from throughout the school's history starting in the 19301s. Heritage Hall contains memorabifia, photographs and newspaper clippings from throughout the school's history, which started in the 1930's.
