By Susan Deemer, Daily Pilot COSTA MESA -Counaiman Joe Erickson plans to ask the City Council tonight to recollSld- er a reduction m developer fees approved at last month's meeting. Erickson filed a request with the city manag- er's office a week ago ask:in~ the council to recc>n- sider its 3-2 decision reducing the city's traffic impact fees by 25 %. At tbat time, fees were reduced from $228 to . $150. The fees are levied on developers of new pro- jects to pay for traffic improvements needed when a business gener- ates additional traffic in the community. "I believe that when a developer builds a project that impacts the city be should pay for it: Erick- son said, explaining tbe city has to-maintain a tight budget.

These ball-in-socket devices allow the suspension to be flexible and are critical to its well- being. As for rear suspension sys- tems, their design varies with the type of car. Regardless of which system is used, it is essential that the wear points (such as ba11 joints and control-arm and strut-rod bush- ings) be' checked often. These components arc subjected to great amounts of stress that lCld to wear and tear. lf they should fail, it could lead to road-handling pro- blems that could well endanger the safety of the of the car's occupants. Thus, it is a good idea to have your car's steering and suspension checked on a routine basis as part of its regular maintenance schedule. HINT: Neglecting a needed wheel alignment can result in wear to steering and swipen- sion pans, along with prema- ture tire wear, reduced gas mileage, and poor handling.

By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot HUNTINGTON BEACH - Members of the Costa Mesa American Little League Major Division All-Stars likely never heard of baseball great Wee Willie Keeler. It is, after all, the lOOth anniversary of the former Balti- more Oriole standout's first of two National League batting titles, having hit .432 in 1897, then repeating as leagu~ batting champion in '98 with a .379 aver- age. The locals, however, sure could have used the time-hon- ored advice of the m&n who hit .345 over 19 big-league seasons, ·when he noted simply: •Hit 'em where they ain't.· • Instead, the Costa Mesa 11- . and 12-year-olds couldn't seem to avoid driving liners directly at Fountain Valley fielders Saturday ' at the Ocean View Llttle League field, where the locals dropped a 2-0 deci- sion in the op e ning game of the District 62 Area I Tourna- ment. • W e c ouldn't get one past a fielder," n o t e d M e s a r---------------~ l TODAY : l . ·5 P.M.

Jackson yielded just six Foun- tain Valley hits in going the route for the locals, who meet Robin- wood, a 12-0 loser to Ocean View Saturday, in tonight's 5 o'clock elimination game at the same facility. "Every time we got one out of .. the infield, it seemed like they had their outfield positioned per- fectly. We hit the ball well.• Bourquardez singled out a first-inning highlight-reel stab by Fountain Valley left fielder Scott Martin, which see.med to set the , tone for the entire game. : •That was a phenomenal , catch,• Bourqu.ardez said of Mar- : tin's circus reception, in which he : retreated about 10 yards to his i 1 right, laid out and back-handed a ~----------------------·-------------------------------------------------~--~-----------------------------~ tvfichaelMcGuireshot bound for Nation. als .ia.,.ll 5 4 m· 11 mnm· • gs ~::.f~~=~:i; .. ·~iu.c •Locals rally twice, but Huntington Valley crew prevails in the marathon.
