Mayor Cox presented a Proclamation to Valerie Sutton in recognition of Sign Writing for the Deaf. A. ROLL CALL. B. Motion was made to waive the reading of Minutes of Meeting of August 22, 1988, approve as written, and order filed. Council Member Strauss stated that he did not wish to change the subject minutes; however, he did want to clarify, for the record, that his motion regarding the San Joaquin Hills Corridor was not reflected accurately in the newly - adopted Resolution No. 88 -89, approved on August 22, 1988. He stated he had requested that Item No. 14 of Resolution No. 85 -11 be added to Resolution No. 88 -89. He recited his two -part motion as set forth on Page 329 of the minutes. He also stated that at the end of the discussion on the Corridor, and just prior to the motion being voted on, he stated again the following,: "And then to have a new Item 14, if you will, which is an expression of the City's seriousness and unwillingness to go forward unless this happens. I think we tried to do that in Resolution No. 85 -11." Council Member Strauss stated that Item No. 14 was designed to protect the homeowners and he was disappointed it was not included in the resolution prepared by staff following the Council meeting. He stated he did not want to reopen the matter, but he did want to make his feelings known to the Council. Mayor Cox stated that he would have to share in the responsibility of the confusion associated with this item, inasmuch as it was not cleared up at the time it was brought up by Council Member Stauss. He stated that Item No. 14, which was left out of Resolution No. 88 -89, is confusing in terms of its interpretation, as it relates in many ways to the City's desire to participate and encourage the development and construction of the Corridor, which he felt the Council supported.

The proposal also includes a modification to the Zoning Code so as to allow a parcel design which will allow two of the existing remaining structures on the • property to encroach 3 feet, 10� inches, into the required four foot side yard setback area adjacent to the new interior common property line. Report from the Planning Department, was presented., A map was displayed showing the existing buildings on the property, and the proposed resubdivision. It was pointed out that the subject property is currently developed with a two story building containing : classrooms, administrative offices, a gymnasium and chapel which was previously used in conjunction with the Newport Beach Christian High School. At its April 25, 1988 meeting, the City Council unanimously approved a proposal _ to enter into a joint escrow for the acquisition of the private school at the southeast corner of 15th Street and Monrovia Avenue. The joint acquisition of this facility will provide a publicly owned Community Center and a privately developed affordable apartment project. The easterly portion of the subject property (Parcel 2) is developed with a gymnasium, school classrooms, and a parking lot. This portion of the property would be subdivided from the balance while in escrow and would become the City's property, to be used as a Community Center for northwest Newport Beach. Charles Pace, resident of Newport Crest, addressed the Council regarding the density bonus and landscaping of the property, to which the staff responded. Larry Campou representing Mesa Development, addressed the Council and stated that the landscaping will be compatible with that of the surrounding area; there will be a resident manager on site, and they hope to save the palm tree near the chapel. • Geneva Matlock, 11 Landfall Court, addressed the Council and suggested the City purchase the entire parcel for park Volume 42 — Page 336 Pac Hghts Aptms/ Resub 877 COUNCIL MEMBERS 00M CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH 12, 1988 MINUTES Volume 42 - Page 337 Pac Hghts Aptms/ Resub 877 purposes, rather than a community center, as she felt there is a definite need for a children's playground in this area. • Craig Bluell, Senior Planner, addressed the Council in response to the HUD loan, advising that the loan the City will be taking out is a $1.2 million dollar loan. The additional $300,000 has already been appropriated by the City Council at a hearing in May, 1988. The loan is to be paid back with the City's future grant money over a period of six years. The funds, therefore, do not come from City revenues. The balance of funds to be paid by the City come from Park funds , which has been set aside for recreational purposes. The facility itself, in addition to the gymnasium, will have classrooms which will be used by senior citizens programs. It is also hoped that when the Banning property develops in the future, that will be the time when the City will get their large play area. The staff is attempting to balance this project with requirements of the Housing Element and the requirements of the Park and Recreation Element to achieve both parks and housing as mandated in both elements of the General Plan. With regard to affordable housing, Mr. Bluell stated that the density bonus provisions are contained in State law which says that the number of affordable units will be in accordance with the density bonus. The units will be affordable! to HUD standards and will be approximately 1,000 sq. ft. per unit. The gymnasium facility was inspected by the City's building and public works engineers;; determined to be in a "sound" state; and estimated to have a 40 to 50 year life because of its concrete structure„ The gymnasium and converted classrooms will be available to all age groups. Tom Miller, 6308 W. Pacific Coast Highway, resident of Newport Crest, addressed the Council regarding the density bonus, and requested that Council give serious consideration to the recommendations of staff, so that • the future residents of'the City will not hold the Council responsible for the development. Volume 42 - Page 337 Pac Hghts Aptms/ Resub 877 COUNCIL MEMBERS r �J 0 11 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH MINUTES 12, 1988 The City Attorney advised that, pursuant Pac Hghts to the State density bonus law, all Aptms/ developers within California have the Resub 877 right to request density increases for the purpose of affordable housing. Louise Greeley, 16 Swift Court, addressed the Council and expressed her concerns regarding affordability and recreational issues. She felt the City's affordable program should be thoroughly "reviewed and aired," as part of the General Plan update. She also felt there was a strong need for a playground in the subject area. She recommended the Planning Commission be instructed by the Council to undertake, as part of the General Plan review, a study of the City's affordable housing program, and that the community center project be "put on hold" until that has been completed. In response to comments made regarding the affordable housing issue, the City Attorney advised that the City's Housing Element will be updated prior to July, 1989, and one of the subjects of the Element is the affordable housing program. He stated there will be a comprehensive review of the City's affordable housing program prior to July 1. Mr. Bluell, in an attempt to clarify the funding for the community center, stated that the City is applying for a loan for up to three years of community development block grant funding to be paid back over a six -year period, and that the escrow runs until September 30. If the Community Development Block Grant program ceases to exist, the debt is forgiven, so there is no downstream liability. Mr. Bluell. also noted that originally this project was proposed as an entirely affordable! housing development. But, as there are no gymnasiums that the City has control over, it was determined by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation, and Planning Departments that loss of the gymnasium to housing would be a significant loss to the community. With regard to the Housing Element, Mr. Bluell advised that the City has a variety of: programs within the Housing Element to achieve the housing goals of Volume 42 - Page 338 COUNCIL MEMBERS • Motion 0 0 Ayes x CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH MINUTES September 12, 1988 the community. The City is also Pac Hghts Hearing no others wishing to address the Aptms/ Council, the public hearing was closed. Resub 877 mandated by the State and SCAG to achieve certain goals with regard to affordable housing. Council Member Plummer complimented the Mesa Development Company on this project, as well as past projects in the area, and expressed her appreciation to them for being able to provide affordable housing. She stated she was also pleased to know of the traffic signal at 15th and Placentia which was recommended by the City's Traffic Affairs Committee. Motion was made to adopt Resolution No. 88 -90 granting a Density Bonus in accordance with Section 65915 of the California. Government Code, and accepting the Environmental Document; and approve the traffic study, the resubdivision and related modification, for the 16, unit apartment complex at 883 West 15th Street, with the Findings and Conditions; set forth in Exhibit 'W'. Council Member Strauss stated that he was glad to see the City enacting a 30 -year affordable housing program; however, he would still like to see the program extended indefinitely. Mayor Pro Tem Bart referred to the parking lot at the subject site, and stated she: would hope that when the area is redesigned, the staff would keep in mind the need for a tot -lot area, and that there! be a fence dividing the two lots so that residents would not be parking in the community center lot. Council Member Sansone stated that inasmuch its the community center will be located close to the City of Costa Mesa, he felt that participation in the activities within the community center cannot be restricted to just Newport Beach residents, and that it might be well to look into.the feasibility of a joint powers agreement with the City of Costa Mesa for recreational facilities. There being no further comments, the motion on the floor was voted on and carried. Volume 42 - Page 339 Res 88 -90 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH COUNCIL MEMBERS J► y n � Gy�yyp� G .
