Planning Commission Recommendation At its meeting of January 20, 1977, the Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend the approval of the Proposed Master Plan for Bayside Drive Park to the City Council with the findings and subject to the conditions as follows: A. FINDINGS 1. That the proposed development is consistent with the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan, and is compatible with surrounding land uses. 2. The project will not have any significant environ- mental impact. 3. The proposed development will offer both active and passive recreation to residents of Old Corona del Mar in a usable neighborhood park. 4. The plans for Bayside Park will not under the circumstances of this case be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, moral comfort and general welfare of persons residing and working in the neighborhood or be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City. B. CONDITIONS 1. The development of Bayside Park shall be in general conformance with the approved schematic Master Plan. 2. That the proposed tennis court shall not be lighted. • TO: City Council - 2. Background At its meeting of December 13, 1976, the City Council referred this matter to the Planning Commission for a public hearing. In response to the City Council's request, the staff of the Community Develop- ment Department met with the staff of the Parks, Beaches and Recrea- tion Department, and a staff report which summarizes the entire history of the Plan's development was prepared. A copy of the staff report is attached. At the Planning Commission public hearing, a considerable amount of time was devoted to a discussion of the unlighted tennis court proposed to be located between the Goldenrod Avenue and Heliotrope Avenue street ends. In the course of that discussion, it was noted that the existing forty-eight inch storm drain underlying the court location would have to be replaced with a fifty-four inch line. It was recommended that the drain be reconstructed either prior to or concurrently with the court. In addition it was noted from the Preliminary Report of Subsurface Investigation that the tennis court site consists of uncompacted fill over natural alluvium and that some removal and recompaction of the fill will be required, as well as some special construction techniques for the court itself such as a post -tensioned slab. It is anticipated that the two con- cerns noted above will have some effect on the phasing of the tennis court construction and, depending on the added costs, the decision as to whether the court is built at all.

LOCATION: On the northerly side of the right-of-way for Bayside Drive, between Carnation Avenue and Larkspur Avenue, in Corona del Mar. INITIATED BY: The Parks, Beaches, and Recreation Commission, City of Newport Beach Application This application is a request to review plans for a City park along the northerly side of Bayside Drive in Corona del Mar. At its meeting of December 13, 1976, the City Council referred this matter to the Planning Commission for a public hearing. Environmental Significance After an initial study, it has been determined that this project will not have any significant environmental impact, and a negative declaration has been prepared and is attached for Commission review. Background The following is the history of the proposed Bayside Park: 1971 The Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission approved the Master Plan of the development of the proposed Bayside Park. The plan included passive landscape areas, a tot lot, a hard court area, tennis court and four related parking spaces, and two stairways from the existing bluff to the park site. October 29, 1973 At a joint City Council/Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission meeting, the City Council recommended that a 10 year tennis court study be made. Said study was to review existing tennis court facilities in the City and to make projections on the long-range tennis court needs of the community. November 8, 1973 The Planning Commission adopted and recommended the approval of the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan. December 17, 1973 The City Council adopted the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan. Page 18 of the approved text provides that the vacant Item No. 7 TO: Planning Commission - 2. Bayside Drive right-of-way in South Corona del Mar (approximately 3.5 acres) be developed for park use. The approved map of the Open Space Plan also indicates a neighborhood park on the subject property. 1974 The proposed Bayside Park was one of four park sites on the City's priority list to the State for 1974 Park Bond Act monies. The City subsequently was allocated $94,000 from the State to be applied for the development of this project. The City will lose this allocated money on July 1, 1978 unless used for this development or for an approved alternate project. July 16, 1974 The 10 year tennis court study was approved by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission. The report concluded that the City should continue to pursue the installation of a major tennis facility in the City, but also should continue to install neighborhood tennis courts wherever feasible and wherever possible because of the great need for additional courts. Page 3 of the report provides that one tennis court facility on Bayside Drive be recommended as a suggested tennis court expansion site (see attached report of the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission dated August 12, 1974). August 12, 1974 The subject 10 year tennis court study was received by the City Council and is now utilized as a guideline for future tennis court expansion sites. All four of the tennis courts in San Joaquin Hills Park and two of the four courts in Marina Park have now been constructed as recommended in the 10 year court plan. . November 13, 1974 The Coastal Commission held a public hearing and approved the proposed plans for Bayside Park, including the tennis court and four related offstreet parking spaces. The City prepared an environmental document that was also accepted by the Coastal Commission in conjunction with the proposed development. This document is still valid, and is attached for Commission review. The approved Coastal Permit became void after a period of one year,. since the project was not begun within that time period. The delay was due to the pending installation by the City of new sewer lines, storm drains, and other utility lines in the Bayside Drive right-bf- way adjoining the proposed park site. 1975-1976 The street work was completed on Bayside Drive during this period of time. The City then requested the extension of the approved Coastal Permit to develop the Bayside Drive park site as originally designed. November 16, 1976 The Coastal Commission held a public hearing in conjunction with the proposed plans for Bayside Park. A petition, signed by 62 persons objecting to the proposed tennis court facility and four related off- street spaces, was submitted to the Coastal Commission for its review. However, the Commission approved the project with the tennis court and related parking spaces intact. November 23, 1976 A contract for Lang and Wood, specifications completed. $11,800 was signed by the City for the services of Landscape Architects, to prepare precise plans and for the subject park site. Said plans are now being Item No. 7 , TO: Planning Commission - 3. December 7. 19 The Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission received the petition signed by 62 persons objecting to the proposed tennis court and related offstreet parking spaces on the proposed park site. However, the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission recommended (5 Ayes, 1 No, 1 Absent) that the Master Plan for Bayside Park be maintained, including the subject tennis court and parking spaces (see attached excerpt of Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission minutes dated December 7, 1976). December 13, 1976 The City Council referred the proposed plans for Bayside Park to the Planning Commission for public hearing. December 22, 1977 A consultant was retained by the City to prepare a preliminary soils report on the proposed tennis court site. •A copy of the report is attached. Analysis The proposed Bayside Park will consist of passive landscape and picnic areas; a hardcourt that may be used for volleyball, basketball, etc.; a small children's playground; and a tennis court facility. An off- street parking lot with 5 parking spaces exists on the park site between Fernleaf Avenue and Goldenrod Avenue. The subject parking spaces will be maintained with the proposed development. In addition, four offstreet parking spaces will be provided for tennis players adjacent to the proposed tennis court. It is our opinion that the number of parking spaces are adequate, since many of the persons utilizing Bayside Park will walk or ride bicycles to the site. Proposed Tennis Court The proposed tennis court facility will be located between Goldenrod Avenue and Heliotrope Avenue, approximately 25 feet below the existing bluff. The closest residential uses are located approximately 30 feet to the north of the proposed court. This 30 foot distance is similar to the relationship between the tennis courts in San Joaquin Hills Park and proposed residences in "Jasmine Creek." In addition, Association tennis courts on Lido Isle and in Lido Sands are located within 30 feet of adjacent dwelling units. Specific Findings and Recommendation Staff recommends the approval of the proposed plans for Bayside Park, and suggests that the Planning Commission take the following actions: A. Accept the attached environmental document. B. Make the following findings: 1. That the proposed development is consistent with the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan, and is compatible with surrounding land uses. 2. The project will not have any significant environmental impact. 3. The prop'osed development will offer both active and passive recreation to residents of old Corona del Mar in a usable neighborhood park. 4. The plans for Bayside Park will not under the circumstances of this case be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, moral comfort and general welfare of persons residing and working in the neighborhood or be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City. Item No. 7 TO: Planning Commission - 4. C. Attach the following conditions: 1. The development of Bayside Park shall be in general conformance with the approved schematic Master Plan. 2. That the proposed tennis court shall not be lighted. DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT R. V. HOGAN, DIRECTOR William R.

Continue to build and develop a geographically equitable neighborhood tennis court system, financed through the Building Excise Tax Fund and the Tennis Court Amortization Fund. 2. Continue to explore joint power agreements with the Newport -Mesa Unified School District, which would provide more sites and joint financing. Pursue Federal -State -County financing through the Federal Land & Water Conservation Fund Act, especially in relation to the Back Bay park development. 4. Pursue the development of a Tennis Center of 8-12 courts to be financed from the General Fund on a 10-year pay -back basis (see Supplemental Report, which describes a Tennis Center in much greater detail). DISCUSSION: In a joint City Council/PB & R Commission meeting on October 29, 1973, the Council recommended that a 10-year tennis court study be made. On Nov. 20th a PB & R Commission subcommittee was appointed to perform this responsibility and to study the existing facilities in Newport Beach and make projections on long-range needs of the community. A preliminary subcommittee report was submitted to the PB & R Commission on March 19, 1974 followed by a supplemental report on June 12th. A final report was submitted to the PB & R Commission on July 16th and was approved by a 6-1 vote. On the basis of subcommittee information and reports, supplemented by inspection of local tennis court facilities by the entire Commission, and supplemented by inspection of potential sites throughout the City of Newport Beach for tennis court expansion, the following report and recommendations are presented to the City Council for consideration. qa� Jean Morris, Chairman P'.( i:S:h G-6 • PUBLIC TENNIS COURTS TEN YEAR PROJECTION OF NEED RECOMMENDED EXPANSION & USE This report will outline the growing interest in tennis nationally, and especially here in Newport Beach. It will indicate a severe shortage of public court facilities now - a shortage which will only worsen in the next ten years with a projected growth in population from 60,000 to 95,000. 30 to 35 new courts will be needed to meet this demand, and this report will pinpoint recommended sites for this expansion. A detailed solution to the tennis court shortage problem is outlined, with the development of a "Tennis Center" of B-12 courts to be financed from the City's General Fund (or other feasible funding sources). The Tennis Center is expected to generate sufficient profits to not only pay back its developmental cost, but to help finance additional Tennis Centers and other City recreational facilities. I. TENNIS IN THE UNITED STATES Nationally, there are an estimated thirteen million active tennis players with 500,000 new players being added each year. Over $500 million was spent,on tennis related activity in 1973, with a 12% growth factor projected annually. This dramatic growth is due to a number of reasons, including the fact that tennis is a game that offers quick release of tension and healthy mobility fora sedentary society. In a relatively short period of time the active phase of the game can provide the desired physical exercise and an opportunity for developing social relations. With increased emphasis on physical fitness, appeal of the sport as a family activity, ease of learning, low cost of equipment, more leisure time, more courts being built and an increasing public awareness, the growth of tennis po�.ularity and' player participation should continue at a rapid pace in the next ten years. II. TENNIS IN THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH There is a particular interest in tennis in Newport Beach due to all of the above factors, plus outstanding weather, affluence and available leisure time. In the City of Newport Beach there are currently six public courts, 16 school district courts, and 64 private courts, with a current population of 60,000. With the projected 9 2 - population growth in the`•next ten years, to 95,000 residents, and the rapidly increased popularity of tennis, tennis facilities are in short supply and the problem is growing more critical each year. The City of Newport Beach has one court per 10,000 people. The National Recreation & Park Association recommends 35 courts for a population of 50,000; 50 courts for a population of 100,000; and one court per 5,000 over 100,000. To comply with the accepted standard, school courts have been computed on a half-time basis for the development projections. Private courts have been eliminated from consideration in this projection because: 1) members of private tennis courts often use public courts; 2) private memberships include many out -of -city residents; and 3) membership limitations and restrictions. On this basis, the City should project the development of 30-35 courts in the next ten years. A. TENNIS COURTS IN NEWPORT BEACH Future Type Number Confirmed Used By City of Newport Beach 6 4 Public Newport -Mesa Unified 16 2 School & Public School District Apartment or housing development 24 11 Residents only Small tennis clubs 6 2 Private ** Large tennis clubs 34 15 Private ** * Estimated public use: 50/ ** Currently only 35 private club memberships are available. B. CURRENT USE The existing public facilities receive heavy open play. It is estimated that the public courts are in full use 85/, of the available time. In addition, the Recreation Division conducts an extensive public tennis instruction program. Sessions are held during the school year on a 10-week basis three times -- Fall, Winter and Spring. The program is designed to give one hour of instruction - - •' 3 1 one day per week. During the summer there are four two -week sessions that offer instruction on a daily Monday thru Friday basis. Additionally, there are summer twilight and evening classes offered on a one-night per week basis. 1. OPEN PLAY The Recreation Division staff has made a concerted effort to distribute on an equitable basis the use of public courts for instruction and general open play. Currently, instruction programs use approximately 15% of the six City -owned courts and 20-25% of the 16 school district's courts available time, excluding school use. Increased tennis instruction although needed by indicated response, would not be advisable on the present number of courts. Tennis patrons, not participating in instruction programs, have expressed the need for fewer classes to allow more open play court time. 2. PUBLIC TENNIS INSTRUCTIONS Many persons are turned away from the instruction program because they cannot obtain a class of their choice or all classes are filled. The registration procedure begins at 9:00 AM for the instruction program and people have historically arrived before 6:00 AM to insure their obtaining a desired class. Obviously, more available courts and an expansion of the City -sponsored tennis instruction program would benefit the tennis enthusiast in the community. It is felt that many regular tennis instruction patrons enroll in the program to gain court accessibility. PROPOSED AND SUGGESTED TENNIS COURT EXPANSION Looking ahead, proposals have been made to build additional courts as follows: 4 - San Joaquin Hills Park (budgeted for '73-74) 2 - Roy Anderson Elementary School (174-75 proposed budget) 1 - Bayside Drive 4 - Marina Park Other suggested -locations include: 5th Avenue corridor - Corona del Mar East of Superior State property Mariners Park P.E. Right -of -Way Spyglass Hills Park Back Bay* Newport Dunes There are 3 or 4 possible sites on top of the bluffs surrounding Back Bay, e.g., at University and Irvine (near YMCA) , 4 _ IV. CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Continue to build and develop a geographically equitable neighborhood tennis court system financed through the Building Excise Tax Fund and the Tennis Court Amortization Fund. 2. Continue to explore joint power agreements with the Newport -Mesa Unified School District, which would provide more sites and joint financing. 3. Pursue Federal -State -County financing through the Federal Land and Water Conservation Fund Act - especially in relation to the Back Bay park development. 4.

Existing shrubs and trees will be retained and additional plants, ground cover and turf will be installed. No animals inhabit the area. Traffic. No major auto traffic is anticipated because the park is designed for local use. Four off-street parking stalls are provided for persons using the proposed tennis court. There will be additional bicycle use of the area, but the route is shown on the Adopted Master Plan of Bikeways. Noise Pollution.

Except in a few cases, these plants will remain intact. Additional shrubs, trees and ground cover will be installed to enhance the site aesthetically. During this installa- t on, proper dust -control msthods will be used to protect adjacent property ^:mere. Also, a buffer planting of shrubs and trees will be installed between t.* tennis court and the residences to minimize any disturbance from noise. CITY OF NE'WPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT Alternatives to the Proposed Project A portion of this site had been scheduled for use in a street -widening project of Bayside Drive. The Parks, Beaches & Recreation Commission convinced the City Council that this widening project was unwarranted and that the site should remain open space. Other efforts have been made to convert a portion of the area to an off-street parking lot. The "no action" alternative would result in the area being left as open space, but this would provide neither the aesthetics or the usability that the proposed project would offer. Relationship between Short Term & Long Term Productivity of the Environment There will be no negative short term or long term effects other than the possible noise pollution from the tennis court that was mentioned earlier. No animals live on the site now, and the birds that do exist in the trees will ultimately have additional foliage in which to nest and hide. The project will not produce additional traffic or air pollution and there will be no re- location of either businesses or families. The net result will be the pro- vision of a landscaped park that will offer both active and passive recreation. Irreversible Environmental Changes as a Result of the Project The implementation of the proposed project will result in no irreversible environmental changes. Although Newport Beach contains many historic archeological sites, no such finds have been discovered in this location. And, since the project calls for open type park development, there will be no significant change in land use. Growth -Inducing Impact of Proposed Action T;;a proposed development site is surrounded by residential and commercial n:'aperties ani a collector street. The residential area is substantially �.avelopa_d so there will be no increase in adjacent population. The completed a,VJ?ct will attract peopla to come t0 the area to walk, rid'. a bicycle, sit on a bench, or to play tennis. But, since the park is neighborhood in con- ;:'ot, the maj-irity of the users will be residents located -lithin a half -mile a-HUS 0f the park. ' Other than the bicycle trail and the tennis court, no ;'acuities are being proposed to attract other than neighborhood people. -2- CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK STATEMENT OF COMPATIBILITY Bayside Drive Park is located between a collector street and a residential area in the Corona del Mar community. .The present land use is open space and the area contains several shrubs and trees that are watered by hose bibs. The proposed project will convert the open space to a usable neighborhood park for the residents in the area and will provide a tennis court, turf, additional shrubs and trees and bikeways & pedestrian walks. 17. CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK STATEMENT OF MAINTENANCE & OPERATION Bayside Drive Park will be a municipal neighborhood park facility. After completion, the Park will be maintained by the City of Newport Beach Department of Parks, Beaches & Recreation as part of the total City-wide park operation.

The PB & R Commission received a petition objecting to the tennis court installation in Bayside Drive. The Director made a report on the background of the Master Plan of Bayside Drive, and explained that it had been before the Coastal Commission two years ago and again two months ago, and had received approval on both occasions. Mr. Stewart also spoke of the Tennis Study by the PB & R Commission beginning thre& years ago and culminating a year ago, at which time it was determines that the City should continue to pursue the installa tion of a major tennis facility somewhere in the City, but also should continue to install neighborhood tennis courts wherever feasible and wherever possible! At that time it was concluded that the Bayside Drive location would be ideal. Mr. Bacon of 2315 Pacific Drive, Corona del Mar, spoke from the audience against the tennis court on the basis of noise, congestion, and potential problems with the proposed parking lot. With no one else wishing to speak from the audience, Chairman Johnson asked for Commission comments. Commissioner Lovell stated that he didn't feel that the noise and the congestion would be a serious prob- lem in this area. After further discussion, Commissioner Wood moved to maintain the Master Plan of Bayside Park as.it. Commissioner Trebler asked if the maker of the motion would accept an amendment stating that before final INDEX Bayside Dr.1 Tennis Cou Installati COMMISSIONERS ad A orA CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH PARKS, BEACHES & RECREATION COMMISSION MINUTES OF MEETING HELD DECEMBER 7, 1976 CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS 7:30 P.M.

Stewart: We noted an article in last weekts Newport Harbor Ensign in which you asked for any ideas from homeowner groups or individuals regarding plans for parks, etc, including the Bayside development. Vie have attached a copy of a petition which *,eras submitted to the South Coast Regional Commission at their meeting on November 1, 1976. of the persons we talked to there seems to be only two who are in favor of a tennis court in a residential area. Those two live approximately two blocks away and are renters. Mien we'received this notice from the South Coast Regional Commission - it was the first we aild many others knew of any such plans on behalf of the City- in fact, only two persons we talked with knew of the plans for a tennis court* we own apartments adjoining this tennis court area, Vie were told by Rex Brandt that the City of Newport Beach hired a consultant from Los Angeles at a cost of W,000- to study the feasibility of the plan to develop Bayside and his!one objection was the tennis court, saying from past experience it has caused grief and dissention among the surrounding neighbors. But still you go ahead with such plans. Wouldn't you call spending 1$10,000. on such a consultant a waste of the taxpayer's money when his suggestions were ignored? Maybe you should have spent the money on a survey of the property owners to see what their viewpoints were on the subject, Vie aore told at the South Coast Commission meeting when you got the o_ i�;anl )er..it that objections wore r, ed t'.hen.

Gentlemen: 12/24/76 IRS(; '0` My£riend, Jay Burchett,has brought to my attention the fact that a new tennis court was planned on Bayside near Goldenrod. Since you need support to go ahead with this project, I would like to ad my approval to this project. My wife an I regularly go up to the Crown Valley Drive courts and even over to the Youth Center courts and the CDM High School courts. It is always generally a long wait to get io play. We live at 607 Begonia and walk over the bridge regularly on on walk to the beach. We are both 60. Our mortgage is paid off. The big thing we enjoyed while we lived at the Shores for Six -:months a few year ago was having 'a tennis court right outside our door so we could run out and play anytime it was vacant. A tennis court near a home should improve the resale value of the property.. Only non tennis players who expect to die in the home they presently live in would object to having a beautiful tennis court near that benefits the health of the community. Sincerely.

This investigation was initiated at the request of Mr. Ken Perry and was based on proposed development concepts outlined by Mr. Dave Fennell. As indicated by the results of our drilling, and by Public Works construction records the depth of existing fill at the site ranges from about 8 to 17 feet overlying a maximum of about 12' feet of natural alluvium. The fill was uncompacted and ranges from very firm and dense to loose and compressible. Although some zones of very dry, loose sand were observed, most of -the fill con- sists of sandy clay to silty sand with considerable broken concrete. .ae alluvium appears to be relatively dense.

Based on information available to date, the following conclusions can be drawn: 1. It appears likely that consolidation of the under- lying alluvium, due to the load of the existing fill, is substantially complete. 2. There is no rational way of evaluating the potential for future settlement in the existing fill. So long as the existing fill is not disturbed by external forces, the likelihood of large,.damaging, surface settlement is small. However, damaging local differential settlement could occur if, for example,, heavy ground vibration occurred, or a large leak developed.in the storm drain or water line. These are occurrences with a low probability but. none -the - less, are possible. 3. There is no way of totally eliminating the risk of damage to tennis courts founded on the fill short of either complete removal of the fill and replacement as compacted fill, or founding the courts on caissons. However, it appears:that the risk of destructive damage (i.e., irrepairable damage) is remote and the concern is to reduce the risk of repairable damage. • i Rgle CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH January 13, 1977 Page Three Our Job 76-164 4. Complete removal of the existing fill is, from a practical standpoint, highly unlikely due to the presence of adjacent dwellings and utilities. 5. It does seem likely that the upper (t) five feet of fill could be removed and replaced as compacted fill to form a "mat" to reduce the effects of differential settlement and to minimiz'e infiltration of irrigation run-off. A post -tensioned concrete slab, resting on this "mat," could be used as a playing surface. Should differential settlement occur, the concrete slab might ti•It but would not crack. A comparatively inexpensive mud -jacking operation could then be employed to restore level. There is no indication from the laboratory testing performed to date that the results will substantially alter these conclusions.. report: The following Plates are attached and complete this letter - Plates 1.1 thru 1.7 -- Log of Drill Hole Plate 2'- -a Legend to Logs Plate 3 --:Drill Hole Location Map.

Location: On the northerly side of the right of -way for Bayside Drive, between Carnation Avenue and Larkspur Aven in Corona del Mar. Initiated by: The Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission, City of Newport Beach City Engineer Nolan advised of a potential proble in that an existing 48 inch storm dtain is locate under the site of the proposed tennis court which is inadequate in capacity, contains structural problems and will have to be replaced eventually with a Targer drain. He suggested that the drain be reconstructed either prior to or concurrently with the tennis court, otherwise the work would have to be done over again. Planning Commission questioned funding of the storm drain and was advised there were no funds budgeted for the project at this time. Cal Stewart, Director of Parks, Beaches and Recreation, appeared before the Commission to answer questions relative to the funding and advised there were no restrictions placed on the funds, however, he did not feet that reconstruc- tion of the storm drain could be considered a part of the park. He also advised that the availability of the funds would expire in July, 1978, that the total cost of the park was antici- pated at $132,000 but that only $94,000 had•been appropriated, and that the funds had been appro- priated by the State for this particular site. Mr. Stewart answered questions of the Commission relative to the cost of the tennis court and sub• sequent maintenance, maintenance of the total park, repair of the present facilities, public use of the park and tennis court and related Page 23.

Mr.. Stewart reviewed the master plan of the propo ed park which he emphasized was a conceptual plan prepared in 1961, and advised that precise plans were presently being prepared by Lang & Wood, Landscape Architects in Laguna Beach. Public hearing was opened in connection with this matter. Bill Spurill, 401 Fernleaf, appeared before the Commission in support of the park, commented on the need for a stairway at the end of Fernleaf down to the park and commended the Parks, Beaches and Recreation for the fine job they were doing. Sid Johnson, 2710 Bayside Drive, appeared before the Commission and voiced concern with the remova of plant material which was never replaced follow ing construction of underground utilities. He also advised of problems with ground stability and questioned the stability of the tennis court site. Betty Johnson, 2710 Bayside Drive, commented on the instability of the general area and the debri which has gone into some of the fill. Jim Wood, Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commissio er and resident of Corona del Mar, appeared befor the Commission to comment on this request and fel that plans should move ahead to construct the par as proposed. He questioned how the noise of one tennis court could possibly disturb tenants 200 feet away and commented on the need for more tenn courts within the City for use by the public. Smith Bacon, 2315 Pacific Drive,,appeared before the Commission in favor of the park but felt that the tennis court had no place in the area and was opposed to its construction. He advised of other in the area which were also opposed to the tennis court because of the noise and lack of parking. Robert Crowley, 900 Sea Lane, appeared before the Commission to dispute the argument that noise would be a problem and commented in favor of the Page 24.

WOOD 2443 E. COAST HIGHWAY • CORONA del MAR. CALIFORNIA 92925 January 18, 1977 Dear Planning Commissioners: As a Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commisioner and resident of Corona del Mar, I have been very interested in the development of Bayside Drive Park for several years. It has been in the planning stage for even longer. We now have the money to move ahead on a very modest, but aesthetically pleas- ing scale and I feel we should do so. Apparently, development is now stalled because owners of an apartment house some 200' across Bayside Drive feel the bounce of tennis balls could be too noisy for their tenants. Others may prefer to have the land left in its current state, which is somewhat barren and dusty. I feel that the present plans for ground cover, walkways and shrubs would be identical to much of the natural surround- ings and certainly a compliment to the handsome stands of trees already existing. If noise from a single tennis court is the concern, please note that there are several "sound deadeners" (also serving as wind deflectors) available to minimize, if not eliminate, any possible noise problems. The demand for tennis courts in Newport Beach is be- yond question. Private clubs control 75 courts, and the City controls but 10. Only recently did we resolve the dilemma of how to fairly ration out court time. In summary, the need is there but the nuisance is not. Actually, the land is now parched and out of context with the surroundings. Corona del Mar is generally thought of as lush and green and Bayside Drive Park as planned would be a serendipitous delight to all local residents. truly yours, �j i James B.

CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH ' • PARKS, BEACHES.& RECREATION DEPARTMENT U February 9, 1977 TO: ROBERT L. WYNN, CITY MANAGER FROM: PB & R Director SUBJECT: BAYSIDE DRIVE TENNIS COURTS In the past couple of months we have had a Public Hearing before the PB & R Commission and one before the Planning Commission to determine the feasibility of placing a tennis court on Bayside Drive. Both Commissions will be recommending to the City Council on February 14 the inclusion of a tenni's court in the precise plans and specifications for that particular park.' 1. Since those Public Hearings, we have received information from the soil testing that took place approximately one month ago. It appears that the land is unstable as we had anticipated and that extensive grading and compacting would have to take place prior to the installation of a court. At this particular time it appears that a normal installation of a tennis court, including fencing, windscreen and appurtenances would cost.$22,000. In this -case, there would be an additional cost of $10,000 for excavation, compaction and soil import, and there would also be an additional cost of $1,500 for post tension court slab work. If all costs came in as anticipated, the cost of installing a court on Bayside Drive at the proposed location would be $33,500. The cost itself would make the installation seem to be unfeasible but, even with all of the precautions that we would take in that installation, we still have no guarantee settling would not occur in future years. Therefore, I Could not recommend or justify the installation of a court,which'would cost 50% more than a normal installation and be faced with a possibility of future settling in the area. With your permission, I would like to tennis court not be installed and that Landscape Architects be notified that deleted and be replaced with sprinkler CCS:h take the position that the the firm of Lang & Wood the tennis court area be system and turf.

Wynn, City Manager City of Newport Beach 3300 Newport Boulevard Newport Beach, California 92663 Dear Bob: Once again I am writing to express my concern regarding the traffic problems and numerous accidents along Bayside Drive. Within the last four days two cars have been completely totaled within one hundred feet of each other. This is the thirteenth accident in the last four months. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured but the property adjacent to mine was damaged exten- sively. We can easily repair, damaged trees and fences but can never replace a human life. Speeding seems to be the number one problem. The numerous accidents and excessive speeding must be dealt with more decisively. We've turned our heads long enough but I now feel more aggressive action should be taken by the Traffic Safety Committee. Many solutions have been tried but, so far, nothing has improved this hazardous situation. I think this subject is important enough to review with the City Council and would appreciate your placing it on the study session agenda for February 14th. Many thanks again for your help and coop- eration. Si 1,s.'�'". Robert M. Hixson,Jr. RMH:vs ENSIGN 1/27/77 +���j��jpp�� t � �� R /� 1!5'2• S ice' :asaerrsw 146 '0 fS-f �r v.i ixrm.''

A controversial tennis court, planned at the end of Goldenrod, was kept in the park plan after a public hearing last Thursday night by the Planning Commission. The park, which must still be okayed by the City Council, would also include a tot play lot be- tween Heliotrope and Iris and pedestrian stairs at Fern - leaf and Goldenrod. The park uses the Bayside Dr. 4 right-of-way, which was puce planned as part of a wider BaysIdb Drive. r 1. COMMISSIONERS vc�F v� v�0 City of Newport January 20, 1977 Beach POLL CALL Request to review plans for a park which includes such features as pedestrian access points at the Fernleaf Avenue and Goldenrod Avenue street ends, an unlighted tennis court between Goldenrod Avenu and Heliotrope Avenue, a tot lot, a hardcourt, an picnic, open turf, landscaped and open off-street parking areas, and the acceptance of an environ- mental document. Location: On the northerly side of the right of -way for Bayside Drive, between Carnation Avenue and Larkspur Aven in Corona del Mar. Initiated by: The Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission, City of Newport Beach City Engineer Nolan advised of a potential proble in that an existing 48 inch storm dtain is locate under the site of the proposed tennis court which is inadequate in capacity, contains structural problems and will have to be replaced eventually with a larger drain. He suggested that the drain be reconstructed either prior to or concurrently with the tennis court, otherwise the work would have to be done over again. Planning Commission questioned funding of the storm drain and was advised there were no funds budgeted for the project at this time. Cal Stewart, Director of Parks, Beaches and Recreation, appeared before the Commission to answer questions relative to the funding and advised there were no restrictions placed on the funds, however, he did not feet that reconstruc- tion of the storm drain could be considered a part of the park. He also advised that the availability of the funds would expire in July, 1978, that the total cost of the park was antici- pated at $132,000 but that only $94,000 had been appropriated, and that the funds had been appro- priated by the State for this particular site. Mr. Stewart answered questions of the Commission relative to the cost of the tennis court and sub• sequent maintenance, maintenance of the total park, repair of the present facilities, public use of the park and tennis court and related Page 23.

Mr. Stewart reviewed the master plan of the propo! ed park which he emphasized was a conceptual plan prepared in 1961, and advised that precise plans were presently being prepared by Lang & Wood, Landscape Architects in Laguna Beach. Public hearing was opened in connection with this matter. Bill Spurill, 401 Fernleaf, appeared before the Commission in support of the park, commented on the need for a stairway at the end of Fernleaf down to the park and commended the Parks, Beaches and Recreation for the fine job they were doing. Sid Johnson, 2710 Bayside Drive, appeared before the Commission and voiced concern with the remova of plant material which was never replaced follow ing construction of underground utilities. He also advised of problems with ground stability and questioned the stability of the tennis court site. Betty Johnson, 2710 Bayside Drive, commented on the instability of the general area and the debri which has gone into some of the fill. Jim Wood, Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commissio er and resident of Corona del Mar, appeared befor the Commission to comment on this request and fel that plans should move ahead to construct the par as proposed. He questioned how the noise of one tennis court could possibly disturb tenants 200 feet away and commented on the need for more tenn courts within the City for use by the public. Smith Bacon, 2315 Pacific Drive, appeared before the Commission in favor of the park but felt that the tennis court had no place in the area and was opposed to its construction. He advised of other in the area which were also opposed to the tennis court because of the noise and lack of parking. Robert Crowley, 900 Sea Lane, appeared before the Commission to dispute the argument that noise would be a problem and commented in favor of the Page 24.

LOCATION: On the northerly side of the right-of-way for Bayside Drive, between Carnation Avenue and Larkspur Avenue, in Corona del Mar. INITIATED BY: The Parks,, Beaches, and Recreation Commission, City of Newport Beach Application This application is a request to review plans for a City park along the northerly side of Bayside Drive in Corona del Mar. At its meeting of December 13, 1976, the City Council referred this matter to the Planning Commission for a public hearing. Environmental Significance After an initial study, it has been determined that this project will not have any significant environmental impact, and a negative declaration has been prepared and is attached for Commission review. Background The following is the history of the proposed Bayside Park: 1971 The Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission approved the Master Plan of the development of the proposed Bayside Park. The plan included passive landscape areas, a tot lot, a hard court area, tennis court and four related parking spaces, and two stairways from the existing bluff to the park site. October 29, 1973 At a joint City Council/Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission meeting, the City Council recommended that a 10 year tennis court study be made. Said study was to review existing tennis court facilities in the City and to make projections on the long-range tennis court needs of the community. November 8, 1973 The Planning Commission adopted and recommended the approval of the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan. December 17, 1973 The City Council adopted the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan. Page 18 of the approved text provides that the vacant Item No. 7 TO: Planning Commission - 2. Bayside Drive right-of-way in South Corona del Mar (approximately 3.5 acres) be developed for park use. The approved map of the Open Space Plan also indicates a neighborhood park on the subject property. 1974 The proposed Bayside Park was one of four park sites on the City's priority list to the State for 1974 Park Bond Act monies. The City subsequently was allocated $94,000 from the State to be applied for the development of this project. The City will lose this allocated money on July 1, 1978 unless used for this development or for an approved alternate project. July 16, 1974 The 10 year tennis court study was approved by the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission. The report concluded that the City should continue to pursue the installation of a major tennis facility in the City, but also should continue to install neighborhood tennis courts wherever feasible and wherever possible because of the great need for additional courts. Page 3 of the report provides that one tennis court facility on Bayside Drive be recommended as a suggested tennis court expansion site (see attached report of the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission dated August 12, 1974). August 12, 1974 The subject 10 year tennis court study was received by the City Council and is now utilized as a guideline for future tennis court expansion sites. All four of the tennis courts in San Joaquin Hills Park and two of the four courts in Marina Park have now been constructed as recommended in the 10 year court plan. . November 13, 1974 The Coastal Commission held a public hearing and approved the proposed plans for Bayside Park, including the tennis court and four related offstreet parking spaces. The City prepared an environmental document that was also accepted by the Coastal Commission in conjunction with the proposed development. This document is still valid, and is attached for Commission review. The approved Coastal Permit became void after a period of one year,, since the project was not begun within that time period. The delay was due to the pending installation by the City of new sewer lines, storm drains, and other utility lines in the Bayside Drive right-of- way adjoining the proposed park site. 1975-1.976 The street work was completed on Bayside Drive during this period of time. The City then requested the extension of the approved Coastal Permit to develop the Bayside Drive park site as originally designed. November 16, 1976 The Coastal Commission held a public hearing in conjunction with the proposed plans for Bayside Park. A petition, signed by 62 persons objecting to the proposed tennis court facility and four related off- street spaces, was submitted to the Coastal Commission for its review. However, the Commission approved the project with the tennis court and related parking spaces intact. November 23, 1976 A contract for $11,800 was signed by the City for the services of Lang and Wood, Landscape Architects, to prepare precise plans and specifications for the subject park site. Said plans are now being completed. Item No. 7 0 TO: Planning Commission - 3. December 7, 1976 The Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission received the petition signed by 62 persons objecting to the proposed tennis court and related offstreet parking spaces on the proposed park site. However, the Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission recommended (5 Ayes, 1 No, 1 Absent) that the Master Plan for Bayside Park be maintained, including the subject tennis court and parking spaces (see attached excerpt of Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission minutes dated December 7, 1976). December 13, 1976 The City Council referred the proposed plans for Bayside Park to the Planning Commission for public hearing. December 22, 1977 A consultant was retained by the City to prepare a preliminary soils report on the proposed tennis court site. .•A copy of the report is attached. Analysis The proposed Bayside Park will consist of passive landscape and picnic areas; a hardcourt that may be used for volleyball, basketball, etc.; a small children's playground; and a tennis court facility. An off- street parking lot with 5 parking spaces exists on the park site between Fernleaf Avenue and Goldenrod Avenue. The subject parking spaces will be maintained with the proposed development. In addition, four offstreet parking spaces will be provided for tennis players adjacent to the proposed tennis court. It is our opinion that the number of parking spaces are adequate, since many of the persons utilizing Bayside Park will walk or ride bicycles to the site. Proposed Tennis Court The proposed tennis court facility will be located between Goldenrod Avenue and Heliotrope Avenue, approximately 25 feet below the existing bluff. The closest residential uses are located approximately 30 feet to the north of the proposed court. This 30 foot distance is similar to the relationship between the tennis courts in San Joaquin Hills Park and proposed residences in "Jasmine Creek." In addition, Association tennis courts on Lido Isle and in Lido Sands are located within 30 feet of adjacent dwelling units. Specific Findings and Recommendation Staff recommends the approval of the proposed plans for Bayside Park, and suggests that the Planning Commission take the following actions: A. Accept the attached environmental document. B. Make the following findings: 1. That the proposed development is consistent with the Recreation and Open Space Element of the General Plan, and is compatible with surrounding land uses. 2. The project will not have any significant environmental impact. 3. The proposed development will offer both active and passive recreation to residents of old Corona del Mar in a usable neighborhood park. 4. The plans for Bayside Park will not under the circumstances of this case be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, moral comfort and general welfare of persons residing and working in the neighborhood or be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or the general welfare of the City. Item No. 7__ 0 TO: Planning Commission - 4. C. Attach the following conditions: 1. The development of Bayside Park shall be in general conformance with the approved schematic Master Plan. 2. That the proposed tennis court shall not be lighted. DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT R. V. HOGAN, DIRECTOR Byr, William R.

Continue to build and develop a geographically equitable neighborhood tennis court system, financed through the Building Excise Tax Fund and the Tennis Court Amortization Fund. 2. Continue to explore joint power agreements with the Newport -Mesa Unified School District, which would provide more sites and joint financing. 3. Pursue federal -State -County financing through the Federal Land & Water Conservation Fund Act, especially in relation to the Back Bay park development. 4. Pursue the development of a Tennis Center of 8-12 courts to be financed from the General Fund on a 10-year pay -back basis (see Supplemental Report, which describes a Tennis Center in much greater detail). DISCUSSION: In a joint City Council/PB & R Commission meeting on October 29, 1973, the Council recommended that a 10-year tennis court study be made. On Nov. 20th a PB & R Commission subcommittee was appointed to perform this responsibility and to study the existing facilities in Newport Beach and make projections on long-range needs of the community. A preliminary subcommittee report was submitted to the PB & R Commission on March 19, 1974 followed by a supplemental report on June 12th. A final report was submitted to the PB & R Commission on July 16th and was approved by a 6-1 vote. On the basis of subcommittee information and reports, supplemented by inspection of local tennis court facilities by the entire Commission, and supplemented by inspection of Potential sites throughout the City of Newport Beach for tennis court expansion, the following report and recommendations are presented to the City Council for consideration. qa� TA/tl� Jean Morris, Chairman J PUBLIC TENNIS COURTS TEN YEAR PROJECTION OF NEED RECOMMENDED EXPANSION & USE INTRODUCTION This report will outline the growing interest in tennis nationally, and especially here in Newport Beach. It will indicate a severe shortage of public court facilities now - a shortage which will only worsen in the next ten years with a projected growth in population from 60,000 to 95,000. 30 to 35 new courts will be needed to meet this demand, and this report will pinpoint recommended sites for this expansion. A detailed solution to the tennis court shortage problem is outlined, with the development of a "Tennis Center" of 8 -12 courts to be financed from the City's General Fund (or other feasible funding sources). The Tennis Center is expected to generate sufficient profits to not only pay back its developmental cost, but to help finance additional Tennis Centers and other City recreational facilities. I. TENNIS IN THE UNITED STATES Nationally, there are an estimated thirteen million active tennis players with 500,000 new players being added each year. Over $500 million was spent on tennis related activity in 1973, with a 12%. growth factor projected annually. This dramatic growth is due to a number of reasons, including the fact that tennis is a game that offers quick release of tension and healthy mobility fora sedentary society. In a relatively short period of time the active phase of the game can provide the desired physical exercise and an opportunity for developing social relations. With increased emphasis on physical fitness, appeal of the sport as a family activity, ease of learning, low cost of equipment, more leisure time, more courts being built and an increasing public awareness, the growth of tennis po�-ularity and player participation should continue at a rapid pace in the next ten years. II. TENNIS IN THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH There is a particular interest in tennis in Newport Beach due to all of the above factors, plus outstanding weather, affluence and available leisure time. In.the City of Newport Beach there are currently six public courts, 16 school district courts, and 64 private courts, with a current population of 60,000. With the projected 0 - 2 - 40 5. population growth in the`• next ten years and the rapidly increased popularity of facilities are in short supply and the more critical each year. to 95,000 residents, tennis, tennis problem is growing The City of Newport Beach has one court per 10,000 people. The National Recreation & Park Association recommends 35 courts for a population of 50,000; 50 courts for a population of 100,000; and one court per 5,000 over 100,000. To comply with the accepted standard, school courts have been computed on a half-time basis for the development projections. Private courts have been eliminated from consideration in this projection because: 1) members of private tennis courts often use public courts; 2) private memberships include many out -of -city residents; and 3) membership limitations and restrictions. On this basis, the City should project the development of 30 -35 courts in the next ten years. A.

B. CURRENT USE `L'he existing public facilities receive heavy open play. it is estimated that the public courts are in full use 85/, of the available time. In addition, the Recreation Division conducts an extensive public tennis instruction program. Sessions are held during the school year on a 10-week basis three times -- Fall, Winter and Spring. The program is designed to give one hour of instruction 9 -3 . 0 q one day per week. During the sununer there are four two -week sessions that offer instruction on a daily Monday thru Friday basis. Additionally, there are summer twilight and evening classes offered on a one-night per week basis. 1. OPEN PLAY The Recreation Division staff has made a concerted effort to distribute on an equitable basis the use of public courts for instruction and general open play. Currently, instruction programs use approximately 15% of the six City -owned courts and 20-25% of the 16 school district's courts available time, excluding school use_ Increased tennis instruction although needed by indicated response, would not be advisable on the present number of courts. Tennis patrons, not participating in instruction programs, have expressed the need for fewer classes to allow more open play court time. 2. PUBLIC TENNIS INSTRUCTIONS Many persons are turned away from the instruction program because they cannot obtain a class of their choice or all classes are filled. The registration procedure begins at 9:00 AM for the instruction program and people have historically arrived before 6:00 AM to insure their obtaining a desired class. Obviously, more available courts and an expansion of the City -sponsored tennis instruction program would benefit the tennis enthusiast in the community. It is felt that many regular tennis instruction patrons enroll in the program to gain court accessibility. PROPOSED AND SUGGESTED TENNIS COURT EXPANSION Looking ahead, proposals have been made to build additional courts as follows: 4 - San Joaquin Hills Park (budgeted for '73-74) 2 - Roy Anderson Elementary School (174-75 proposed budget) 1 - Bayside Drive 4 - Marina Park Other suggested locations include: 5th Avenue corridor - Corona del Mar East of Superior State property Mariners Park P.E. Right -of -Way Spyglass Hills Park Back Bay* Newport Ames * There are 3 or 4 possible sites on top of the bluffs surrounding Back Bay, e.g., at University and Irvine (near YMCA) Y - 4 - IV. CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Continue to build and develop a geographically equitable neighborhood tennis court system financed through the Building Excise Tax Fund and the Tennis Court Amortization Fund. 2. Continue to explore joint power agreements with the Newport -Mesa Unified School District, which would provide more sites and joint financing. 3. Pursue Federal -State -County financing through the Federal Land and Water Conservation Fund Act - especially in relation to the Back Bay park development. 4. Pursue the development of a Tennis Center of 5-12 courts to be financed from the General Fund on a ten-year pay -back basis (see Supplemental Report, which describes a Tennis Center in much greater detail).

The proposed development will retain the open space, but would provide facilities that would make the site more usable by the public. Environmental Impact of the Proposed Action Flora & Fauna. Existing shrubs and trees will be retained and additional plants, ground cover and turf will be installed. No animals inhabit the area. Traffic. No major auto traffic is anticipated because the park is designed for local use. Four off-street parking stalls are provided for persons using the proposed tennis court. There will be additional bicycle use of the area, but the route is shown on the Adopted Master Plan of Bikeways. Noise Pollution. The installation of a tennis court will provide additional noise in an area that has experienced only auto noise until now. .•^•ir Pollution. No imaact is anticipated. Fffincts that Cannot Be Avoided ih, installation of a tennis court and the small parking lot will provide hard .I. 'u­far_ing in an araa that is now open dirt; hocever, this is a small segment of entire cl=.velopment. !ith proper landscaping the tennis court and parking lot will blend in with the totalproject. :'iti ,atinq Maesures Proposed to Minimize Imoact C?rtain trees and shrubs exist on the site at the present time. Except in a few cases, these plants will remain intact. Additional shrubs, trees and ground cover will be installed to enhance the site aesthetically. During this installa- :'on, proper dust -control methods will be used to protect adjacent property o•ners. Also, a buffer planting of shrubs and trees will be installed between tennis court and tha residences to minimize any disturbance from noise. CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT Alternatives to the Proposed Project A portion of this site had been scheduled for use in a street -widening project of Bayside Drive. The Parks, Beaches & Recreation Commission convinced the City Council that this widening project was unwarranted and that the site should remain open space. Other efforts have been made to convert a portion of the area to an off-street parking lot. The "no action" alternative would result in the area being left as open space, but this would provide neither the aesthetics or the usability that the proposed project would offer. Relationship between Short Term & Long Term Productivity of the Environment There will be no negative short term or long term effects other than the possible noise pollution from the tennis court that was mentioned earlier. . No animals live on the site now, and the birds that do exist in the•trees will ultimately have additional foliage in which to nest and hide. The project will not produce additional traffic or air pollution and there will be no re- location of either businesses or families. The net result will be the pro- vision of a landscaped park that will offer both active and passive recreation. Irreversible Environmental Changes as a Result of the Project The implementation of the proposed project will result in no irreversible environmental changes. Although Newport Beach contains many historic archeological sites, no such finds have been discovered in this location. And, since the project calls for open type park development, there will be no significant change in land use. Growth -Inducing Impact of Proposed Action Th= proposed c!,�vel'opment site is surrounded by residential and commercial properties an•i a collector street. The residential area is substantially veloped so there will be no increase in adjacent population. The completed project will attract people to come to tha area to walk, ride a bicycle, sit on a bench, or to play tennis. But, since the park is neighborhood in con- c-ol., the majority of the users will be residents located rithin a half -mile ;..HUs of the park. ' Other than the bicycle trail and the tennis court, no 'ac" ities are being proposed to attract other than neighborhood people. -2- • • 1 6, CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK STATEMENT OF COMPATIBILITY Bayside Drive Park is located between a collector street and a' residential area in the Corona del Mar community. .The present land use is open space and the area contains several shrubs and trees that are watered by hose bibs. The proposed project will convert the open space to a usable neighborhood park for the residents in the area and will provide a tennis court, turf, additional shrubs and trees and bikeways & pedestrian walks. • • 17, CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK STATEMENT OF MAINTENANCE & OPERATION Bayside Drive Park will be a municipal neighborhood park facility. After completion, the Park will be maintained by the City of Newport Beach Department of Parks, Beaches & Recreation as part of the total City-wide park operation.

The PB & R Commission received a petition objecting to the tennis court installation in Bayside Drive. The Director made a report on the background of the Master Plan of Bayside Drive, and explained that it had been before the Coastal Commission two years ago and again two months ago, and had received approval on both occasions. Mr. Stewart also spoke of the Tennis Study by the PB & R Commission beginning three years ago and culminating a year ago, at which time it was determined that the City should continue to pursue the installa- tion of a major tennis facility somewhere in the City, but also should continue to install neighborhood tennis courts wherever feasible and wherever possible: At that time it was concluded that the Bayside Drive location would be ideal. Mr. Bacon of 2315 Pacific Drive, Corona del Mar, spoke from the audience against the tennis court on the basis of noise, congestion, and potential problems with the proposed parking lot. With no one else wishing to speak from the audience, Chairman Johnson asked for Commission comments. Commissioner Lovell stated that he didn't feel that the noise and the congestion would be a serious prob- lem in this area. Motion x After further discussion, Commissioner Wood moved to maintain the Master Plan of Bayside Park as it.

Mr. Backer left with the Commission two let rs identifying the members of the Park & Recreat n Study Committee, and requested that the originals be - turned to him after the City had made copies. -2- O 2315 Pacific Drives Corona Del Mar, Cal.92625 November 2, 1976 -Tr-I Dear UIr. Steuart; Vie noted an article in last week's Newport Harbor Ensign in which you asked for any ideas from homeowner groups or individuals regarding plans for parks, etc. including the Bayside development. We have attached a copy of a petition which was submitted to the South Coast Regional Commission at their meeting on November 1, 1976. Of the persons vie talked to there seems to be only two who are in favor of a tennis court in a residential area. Those two live approximately two blocks away and are renters. When we received this notice from the South Coast Regional Commission - it was the first we a-qd many others knew of any such plans on behalf of the City. In fact, only two'persons we talked with knew of the plans for a tennis court. We own apartments adjoining this tennis court area. We were told by Rex Brandt that the City of Newport Beach hired a consultant from Los Angeles at a cost of 410,000. to study the feasibility of the plan to develop Bayside and hidone objection was the tennis court, saying from past experience it has caused grief and dissention among the surrounding neighbors. But still you go ahead with such plans. Wouldn't you call spending 010,0000 on such a consultant a waste of the taxpayer's money when his suggestions were ignored? Maybe you should have spent the money on a survey of the property owners to see what their viewpoints were on the subject. We viere told at the South Coast Commission meeting when you got the o_?ir,,innl per..it that 0,, jeetioi -:tore raised t'.zen.

CALIF. 92e25 Planning Commission Newport Beach City Hall Newport Beach, Calif. Gentlemen: 12/24/76 Myfriend, Jay Burchett,has brought to my attention the fact that a new tennis court was planned on Bayside near Goldenrod. Since you need support to go ahead with this project, I would like to ad my approval to this project: My wife an I regularly go up to the Crown Valley Drive courts and even over to the Youth Center courts and the CDM High School courts. It is always generally a long wait to get to play. We live at 607 Begonia and walk over the bridge regularly on on walk to the beach. We are both 60. Our mortgage is paid off. The big i"i.. thing we enjoyed while we lived at the Shores for Stx -months a few year ago was having a tennis court right outside our door so we could run out and play anytime it was vacant. A tennis court near a home should improve the resale value of the property. Only non tennis players who expect to die in the home they presently live in would object to having a beautiful tennis court near that benefits the health of the community.

Our Job 76-164 We have completed our exploratory drilling at the subject site and laboratory testing is presently in progress to assess the compressibility of typical samples of the fill and the under- lying natural soil. This investigation was initiated at the request of Mr. Ken Perry and was based on proposed development concepts outlined by Mr. Dave Fennell. As indicated by the results of our drilling, and by Public Works construction records the depth of existing fill at -he site ranges from about 8 to 17 feet overlying a maximum of about 12' feet of natural alluvium. The fill was uncompacted and ranges from very•firm and dense to loose and compressible. Although some zones of very dry, loose sand were observed, most of the fii'_ con- sists of sandy clay to silty sand with considerable broken concrete. ::re alluvium appears to be relatively dense. • SOIL AND ROCK ENGINEERING • FOUNDATION ENGINEERING s ENGINEERING GEOLOGY . ENGINEERING SEI&MOLOG: a CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH U-1) (� January 13, 1977 — — -- Page Two Our Job 76-164 nn.( Iry Based on information available to date, the following conclusions can be drawn: 1. It appears likely that consolidation of the under- lying alluvium, due to the load of the existing fill, is substantially complete. 2. There is no rational way of evaluating the potential for future settlement in the existing fill. So long as the existing fill is not disturbed by external forces, the likelihood of large,.damaging, surface settlement is small. However, damaging local differential settlement could occur if, for example, heavy ground vibration occurred, or a large leak developed,in the storm drain or water line. These are occurrences with a low probability but. none -the - less, are possible. 3.. There is no way of totally eliminating the risk of damage to tennis courts founded on the fill short of either complete removal of the 'fill and replacement as compacted fill, or founding the courts on caissons. However, it appears that the risk of destructive damage (i.e., irrepairable damage) is remote and the concern is to reduce the risk of repairable damage. M •� 9. CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH 01:J January 13, Page Three 1977 — h Our Job 76-164;O 4. Complete removal of the existing fill is, from a practical standpoint, highly unlikely due to the presence of adjacent dwellings and utilities. 5. It does seem likely that the upper (t) five feet of fill could be removed and replaced as compacted fill to form a "mat" to reduce the effects of differential settlement and to minimize infiltration of irrigation.run-off. A post -tensioned concrete slab, resting on this "mat," could be used as a playing surface. Should differential settlement occur, the concrete slab might tilt but would not crack, A comparatively inexpensive mud -jacking operation could then be employed to restore level. There is no indication from the laboratory testing performed to date that the results will substantially alter these conclusions.. report: The following Plates are attached and complete this letter - Plates 1.1 thru 1.7 -- Log of Drill Hole Plate 2'• — Legend to Logs Plate 3 --:Drill Hole Location Map.

CALIFORNIA 02525 January 18, 1977 Dear Planning Commissioners: As a Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commisioner and resident of Corona del Mar, I have been very interested in the development of Bayside Drive Park for several years. It has been in the planning stage for even longer. We now have the money to move ahead on a very modest, but aesthetically pleas- ing scale and I feel we should do so. Apparently, development is now stalled because owners of an apartment house some 2001 across Bayside Drive feel the bounce of tennis balls could be too noisy for their tenants. Others may prefer to have the land left in its current state, which is somewhat barren and dusty. I feel that the present plans for ground cover, walkways and shrubs would be identical to much of the natural surround- ings and certainly a compliment to the handsome stands of trees already existing. If noise from a single tennis court is the concern, please note that there are several "sound deadeners" (also serving as wind deflectors) available to minimize, if not eliminate, any possible noise problems. The demand for tennis courts in Newport Beach is be- yond question. Private clubs control 75 courts and the City controls but 10. Only recently did we resolve the dilemma of how to fairly ration out court time. In summary, the need is there but the nuisance is not. Actually, the land is now parched and out of context with the surroundings. Corona del Mar is generally thought of as lush and green and Bayside Drive Park as planned would be a serendipitous delight to all local residents. Very truly yours, James B.

Since you need support to go ahead with this project, I would like to ad my approval to this project. My wife an I regularly go up to the Crown Valley Drive courts and even over to the Youth Center courts and the CDM High School courts. It is always generally a long wait to get to play. We live at 607 Begonia and walk over the bridge regularly on on walk to the beach. We are both 60. Our mortgage is paid off. The big 77 thing we enjoyed.while we lived at the Shores for Six months a few year ago was having a tennis court right outside our door so we could run out and play anytime it was vacant. A tennis court near a home should improve the resale value of the property. Only non tennis players who expect to die in the home they presently live in would object to having a beautiful tennis court near that benefits the health of the community.

The PB & R Commission received a petition objecting to Bayside Dr. the tennis court installation in Bayside Drive. The Director made a report on the background of the Master Tennis Court Plan of Bayside Drive, and explained that it had been Installatio before the Coastal Commission two years ago and again j two months ago, and had received approval on both occasions. Mr. Stewart also spoke of the Tennis Study by the PB & R Commission beginning three years ago and culminating a year ago, at which time it was determined that the City should continue to pursue the installa-, tion of a major tennis facility somewhere in the City, but also should continue to install neighborhood tennis courts wherever feasible and wherever possible! At that time it was concluded that the Bayside Drive location would be ideal. Mr. Bacon of 2315 Pacific Drive, Corona del Mar, spoke from the audience against the tennis court on the basis of noise, congestion, and potential problems with the proposed parking lot. With no one else wishing to speak from the audience, Chairman Johnson asked for Commission comments. Commissioner Lovell stated that he didn't feel that the noise and the congestion would be a serious prob- lem in this area.

Carpenter Executive Director South Coast Conservation Commission ti al Dear Mr, Stewart: • 2315 Pac4l1c Drive, Corona Del Mar, Ca1.92625 November 2, 1976 We noted an article in last week's Newport Harbor Ensign in which you asked for any ideas from homeowner groups or individuals regarding plans for parks, etc. including the Bayside development. 'de have attached a copy of a petition which was submitted to the South Coast Regional Commission at their meeting on November 1, 1976. q 0. XW 1 Of the persons we talked to there seems to be only two who are in favor of a tennis court in a residential area. Those two live approximately two blocks away and are renters. When vie received this notice from the South Coast Regional Commission - it was the first we and _many others knew of any such plans on behalf of the City. In fact, only two persons we talked with knew of the plans for a tennis court. We own apartments adjoining this tennis court area. We were told by Rex Brandt that the City of Newport Beach hired a consultant from Los Angeles at a cost of 410,000. to study the feasibility of the plan to develop Bayside and his!one objection was the tennis court, saying from past experience it has caused grief and dissention among the surrounding neighbors. But still you go ahead with such plans. Wouldn't you call spending 610,000. on such a consultant a waste of the taxpayerts money then his suggestions were ignored? Maybe you should have spent the money on a survey of the property owners to see what their viewpoints were on the subject. We were told at the South Coast Commission meeting when you got the o_irinal por'.it t?_ut objections wore raised then. But you ignored them too. .7e '7:%11 i ioe wi lliilf to bet the A it 7ou -owned provert adjoining tZis tennis court that the idea would ?eve been dropped. you :couldn't want your vroperty to decrease in value. we Gut._cred the names ?or the petition in one aftcrnoon, if ti_,e had permitted we would haue had four times this amount in two days time.

Continue to build and develop a geographically equitable neighborhood tennis court system, financed through the Building Excise Tax Fund and the Tennis Court Amortization Fund. 2. "Continue to explore joint power agreements with the Newport -Mesa Unified School District, which would provide more sites and joint financing. 3. Pursue Federal -State -County financing through the Federal Land & Water Conservation Fund Act, especially in relation to the Back Bay park development. 4. Pursue the development of a Tennis Center of 8-12 courts to be financed from the General Fund on a 10-year pay -back basis (see Supplemental Report, which describes a Tennis Center in much greater detail). DISCUSSION: In a joint City Council/PB & R Commission meeting on October 29, 1973, the Council recommended that a 10-year tennis court study be made. On Nov. 20th a PB & R Commission subcommittee was appointed to perform this responsibility and to study the existing facilities in Newport Beach and make projections on long-range needs of the community. A preliminary subcommittee report was submitted to the PB & R Commission on March 19, 1974 followed by a supplemental report on June 12th. A final report was submitted to the PB & R Commission on July 16th and was approved by a 6-1 vote. On the basis of subcommittee information and reports, supplemented by inspection of local tennis court facilities by the entire Commission, and supplemented by inspection of potential sites throughout the City of Newport Beach for tennis court expansion, the following report and recommendations are presented to the City Council for consideration. JM:CCS:h f Jean Morris, Chairman G-6 PUBLIC TENNIS COURTS TEN YEAR PROJECTION OF NEED, RECOMMENDED EXPANSION & USE This report will outline the growing interest in tennis nationally, and especially here in Newport Beach. It will indicate a severe shortage of public court facilities now - a shortage which will only worsen in the next ten years with a projected growth in population from 60,000 to 95,000. 30 to 35 new courts will be needed to meet this demand, and this report will pinpoint recommended sites for this expansion. A detailed solution to the tennis court shortage problem is outlined, with the development of a "Tennis Center" of 8-12 courts to be financed from the City's General Fund (or other feasible funding sources). The Tennis Center is expected to generate sufficient profits to not only pay back its developmental cost, but to help finance additional Tennis Centers and other City recreational facilities. I. TENNIS IN THE UNITED STATES Nationally, there are an estimated thirteen million active tennis players with 500,000 new players being added each year. Over $500 million was spent on tennis related activity in 1973, with a 12%. growth factor projected annually. This dramatic growth is due to a number of reasons, including the fact that tennis is a game that offers quick release of tension and healthy mobility fora sedentary society. In a relatively short period of time the active phase of the game can provide the desired physical exercise and an opportunity for developing social relations. With increased emphasis on physical fitness, appeal of the sport as a family activity, ease of learning, low cost of equipment, more leisure time, more courts being built and an increasing public awareness, the growth of tennis po�-ularity and' player participation should continue at a rapid pace in the next ten years. II. TENNIS IN THE CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH There is a particular interest in tennis in Newport Beach due to all of the above factors, plus outstanding weather, affluence and available leisure time. In the City of Newport Beach there are currently six public courts, 16 school district courts, and 64 private courts, with a current population of 60,000. With the projected 0 - 2 - population growth in the• next ten years and the rapidly increased popularity of facilities are in short supply and the more critical each year. to Y5,000 residents, tennis, tennis problem is growing The City of Newport Beach has one court per 10,000 people. The National Recreation & Park Association recommends 35 courts for a population of 50,000; 50 courts for a population of 100,000; and one court per 5,000 over 100,000. To comply with the accepted standard, school courts have been computed on a half-time basis for the development projections. Private courts have been eliminated from consideration in this projection because: 1) members of private tennis courts often use public courts; 2) private memberships include many out -of -city residents; and 3) membership limitations and restrictions. On this basis, the City should project the development of 30-35 courts in the next ten years. A. TENNIS COURTS IN NEWPORT BEACH Future Type Number Confirmed Used By City of Newport Beach 6 4 Public Newport -Mesa Unified 16 2 School & Public School District Apartment or housing development 24 11 Residents only Small tennis clubs 6 2 Private ** Large tennis clubs 34 15 Private ** * Estimated public use: 50/ ** Currently only 35 private club memberships are available. B. CURRENT USE The existing public facilities receive heavy open play. It is estimated that the public courts are in full use 85/0 of the available time. In addition, the Recreation Division conducts an extensive public tennis instruction program. Sessions are held during the school year on a 10-week basis three times -- Fall, Winter and Spring. The program is designed to give one hour of instruction one day per week. During the summer there are four two -week sessions that offer instruction on a daily Monday thru Friday basis. Additionally, there are summer twilight and evening classes offered on a one-night per week basis. 1. OPEN PLAY The Recreation Division staff has made a concerted effort to distribute on an equitable basis the use of public courts for instruction and general open play. Currently, instruction programs use approximately 15% of the six City -owned courts and 20-25% of the 16 school district's courts available time, excluding school use. Increased tennis instruction although needed by indicated response, would not be advisable on the present number of courts. Tennis patrons, not participating in instruction programs, have expressed the need for fewer classes to allow more open play court time. 2. PUBLIC TENNIS INSTRUCTIONS Many persons are turned away from the instruction program because they cannot obtain a class of their choice or all classes are filled. The registration , procedure begins at 9:00 AM for the instruction program and people have historically arrived before 6:00 AM to insure their obtaining a desired class. Obviously, more available courts and an expansion of the City -sponsored tennis instruction program would benefit the tennis enthusiast in the community. It is felt that many regular tennis instruction patrons enroll in the program to gain court accessibility. III. PROPOSED AND SUGGESTED TENNIS COURT EXPANSION Looking ahead, proposals have been made to build additional courts as follows: 4 - San Joaquin Hills Park (budgeted for '73-74) 2 - Roy Anderson Elementary School ('74-75 proposed budget) 1 - Bayside Drive 4 - Marina Park Other suggested locations include: 5th Avenue corridor - Corona del Mar East of Superior State property Mariners Park P.E. Right -of -Way Spyglass Mills Park Back Bay* Newport Domes * There are 3 or 4 possible sites on top of the bluffs surrounding Back Bay, e.g., at University and Irvine (near YMCA) /Dt IV. CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Continue to build and develop a geographically equitable neighborhood tennis court system financed through the Building Excise Tax Fund and the Tennis Court Amortization Fund. 2. Continue to explore joint power agreements with the Newport -Mesa Unified School District, which would provide more sites and joint financing. 3. Pursue Federal -State -County financing through the Federal Land and Water Conservation Fund Act - especially in relation to the Back Bay park development. 4.

Description of Environment The site presently is open space and contains a few shrubs and trees surrounded by dirt. The proposed development will retain the open space, but would provide facilities that would make the site more usable by the public. Environmental Impact of the Proposed Action Flora & Fauna. Existing shrubs and trees will be retained and additional plants, ground cover and turf will be installed. No animals inhabit the area. Traffic. No major auto traffic is anticipated because the park is designed for local use. Four off-street parking stalls are provided for persons using the proposed tennis court. There will be additional bicycle use of the area, but the route is shown on the Adopted Master Plan of Bikeways. Noise Pollution. The installation of a tennis court will.provide additional noise in an area that has experienced only auto noise until now. Air Pollution. No impact is anticipated. Adverse Effects that Cannot Be Avoided Tha installation of a tennis court and the small parking lot will provide hard S{I•'facing in an area that is now open dirt, ho%gever, this is a small segment of 0;r; entire development. With proper, landscaping the tennis court and parking lot will blend in with the total project. ;'iti. act tin i•i2asares Proposed to Minimize Impact Certain trees and shrubs exist on the site at the present time. Except in a few cases, these plants will ramain intact. Additional shrubs, trees and ground cover will be installed to enhance the site aesthetically. During this instalTa- tion, proper dust -control mathods will be used to protect adjacent property p>mars. Also, a buffer planting of shrubs and trees will be installed between `;:e tennis court and the residences to minimize any disturbance from noise. o 14 • • 15, CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT Alternatives to the Proposed Project A portion of this site had been scheduled for use in a street -widening project of Bayside Drive. The Parks, Beaches & Recreation Commission convinced the City Council that this widening project was unwarranted and that the site should remain open space. Other efforts have been made to convert a portion of the area to an off-street parking lot. The "no action" alternative would result in the area being left as open space, but this would provide neither the aesthetics or the usability that the proposed project would offer. Relationship between Short Term & Long Term Productivity of the Environment There will be no negative short term or long term effects other than the possible noise pollution from the tennis court that was mentioned earlier. . No animals live on the site now, and the birds that do exist in the trees 'will ultimately have additional foliage in which to nest and hide. The project will not produce additional traffic or air pollution and there will be no re- location of either businesses or families. The net result will be the pro- vision of a landscaped park that will offer both active and passive recreation. Irreversible Environmental Chanqes as a Result of the Project The implementation of the proposed project will result in no irreversible environmental changes. Although Newport Beach contains many historic archeological sites, no such finds have been discovered in this location. And, since the project calls for open type park development, there will be no significant change in land use. Growth -Inducing Impact of Proposed Action The proposed development site is surrounded by residential and commercial properties and a collector•street. The residential area is substantially developed so there will be no increase in adjacent population. The completed project will attract people to core to the area to walk, ride a bicycle, sit on a bench, or to play tennis. But, since the park is neighborhood in con- caot, the majority of the users will be residents located wi.thin a half -mile rad-JUS of the park. Other than the bicycle trail and the tennis court, no facilities are being proposed to attract other than neighborhood people. -2- CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK STATEMENT OF COMPATIBILITY Bayside Drive Park is located between a collector street and a' residential area in the Corona del Mar community. The present land use is open space and the area contains several shrubs and trees that are watered by hose bibs. The proposed project will convert the open space to a usable neighborhood park for the residents in the area and will provide a tennis court, turf, additional shrubs and trees and bikeways & pedestrian walks. 0 • 17 CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH BAYSIDE DRIVE PARK STATEMENT OF MAINTENANCE & OPERATION Bayside Drive Park will be a municipal neighborhood park facility. After completion, the Park will be maintained by the City of Newport Beach Department of Parks, Beaches & Recreation as part of the total City-wide park operation.

JAii 111977 CITY Or_ ON / NEYVFC^'Z cP. JJ Our Job 76-164 We have completed our exploratory drilling at the subject site and laboratory testing is presently in progress to assess the compressibility of typical samples of the fill and the under- lying natural soil. This investigation was initiated at the request of Mr. Ken Perry and was based on proposed development concepts outlined by Mr. Dave Fennell. As indicated by the results of our drilling, and by Public Works construction records the depth of existing fill at the site ranges from about 8 to 17 feet overlying a maximum of about 12 feet of natural alluvium. The fill was uncompacted and ranges from very firm and dense to loose and compressible. Althoul.,;h some zones of very dry, loose sand were observed, most of the fill con- s -'its of sandy clay to silty sand with considerable broken concrete. T_Ye alluvium appears to be relatively dense. SOIL AND ROCK ENGINEERING o FOUNDATION ENGINEERING • ENGINEERING GEOLOGY u ENGINEERING SEISMOLOGi o GEOPHYSICS CITY OF NBWPORT BEACH January 13, 1977 Page Two Our Job 76-164 Based on information available to date, the following conclusions can be drawn: 1. It appears likely that consolidation of the under- lying alluvium, due to the load of the existing fill, is substantially complete. 2. There is no rational way of evaluating the potential for future settlement in the existing fill. So long as the existing fill is not disturbed by external forces, the likelihood of large, damaging, surface settlement is small. However, damaging local differential settlement could occur if, for example, heavy ground vibration occurred, or a large leak developed in the storm drain or water line. These are occurrences with a low probability but. none -the - less, are possible. 3. There is no way of totally eliminating the ris'< of damage to tennis courts founded on the fill short of either complete removal of the fill and replacement as compacted fill, or founding the courts on caissons. However, it appears that the risk of destructive damage (i,e „ irrepairable damage) is remote and the concern is to reduce the risk of repairable damage. 0 t CITY OF NEWPORT BEACH i January 13, 1977 Page Three Our Job 76-164 G 4. Complete removal of the existing fill is, from a practical standpoint, highly unlikely due to the presence of adjacent dwellings and utilities. 5. It does seem likely that the upper (t) five feet of fill could be removed and replaced as compacted fill to form a "mat" to reduce the effects of differential settlement and to minimize infiltration of irrigation run-off. A post -tensioned concrete slab, resting on this "mat," could be used as a playing surface. Should differential settlement occur, the concrete slab might tilt but would not crack. A comparatively inexpensive mud -jacking operation could then be employed to restore level. There is no indication from the laboratory testing performed to date that the results will substantially alter these conclusions. report: The following Plates are attached and complete this letter - Plates 1.1 thru 1.7 -- Log of Drill Hole Plate 2'/ �a Legend to Logs Plate 3 --;Drill Hole Location Map.
