HomeMy WebLinkAbout00 - On the AgendaOn the Agenda: June 25 City Council Meeting
The next City Council meeting is
Tuesday, June 25. Items of interest are
highlighted below. The entire agenda and
reports can be viewed here.
The regular meeting will begin at 4 p.m.
Agenda items include:
• A resolution allowing the Newport
Beach Police Department to close
selected streets and parking lots as
needed during the upcoming July 4
holiday. This item would allow temporary
closures or traffic diversions from Back Bay Drive; the 100 block of Orange Street
from traffic off of Pacific Coast Highway; San Joaquin Hills Road between Back Bay
Drive and the entrance to the Park Newport Apartment complex; and Via Malaga
between Via Oporto and Via Lido.
Acceptance of artwork from the Newport Beach Sister City Association. In honor of
the 40th anniversary of the Newport Beach's Sister City friendship with Okazaki,
Japan, the association commissioned artist Pierce Meehan to create Indivisible, a
mixed media piece, for donation to the City. The City Arts Commission previously
approved the acceptance of the piece into the City art inventory and the Board of
Library Trustees agreed to install it in the Passport Office at the Central Library.
Approval of the collection of certain sewer and recycling fees through the property
tax roll. About 5,600 sewer and/or recycling customer accounts do not currently
receive a water bill from the City of Newport Beach. Enrolling these types of charges
on the property tax roll is a common practice, particularly in instances where a
customer is not receiving water service from the billing agency. Such charges are
billed as part of the normal property tax billing as an add -on charge.
Annual appointments to various City board and commission seats whose terms
expire June 30. As directed by City Council policy, a Council ad hoc committee
interviewed applicants and made nominating recommendations for the vacancies
(with the exception of the Civil Service Board seats, which were nominated by police
and fire associations, as outlined in the City Charter). The Council will consider
approving nominations to the following boards and commissions: Board of Library
Trustees; Building and Fire Board of Appeals; City Arts Commission; Civil Service
Board; Harbor Commission; Parks, Beaches and Recreation Commission; and
Planning Commission.
