Beautify Your Yard! . City Council to consider future of Mariilapark •Plans seek to replace the bayside mobile homes with hotels, restaurants and shops. By Jennifer Armstrong. Daily Pilot NEWPORT BBACH -Mari- napark residents have known for years that the dty could, some- day, decide whether to pursue leveling the dty-owned mobile home park for more visitor-serv- ing ventures. And today, someday has come. The Oty Council tonight will discuss whether to push ahead with plans to replace the bayside mobile homes with hotels, restau- rants and shops. The change would make the land use consis- tent with state law, which requires designated tidelands to house development that's pub- licly accessible. And a recent consultant report says visitor-friendly uses would nearly double the value of the land between 15th and 19th streets. The 10.71 acres house the mobile homes, as well as a Girl Scout house, the Balboa Commu- nity Center, the American Legion and tennis courts. But park residents hope to show council members that keep- ing them on the property will benefit the city more than a hotel or restaurant would. ·we hope to deflect some of the actions on the agenda,• said Stewart Berk.shire, president of the Marinapark Homeownen Association. "We hope we seem reasonable to them.• Berkshire, an accounting pro- fessor, drafted his own analysis of the profit potential of the mobile homes versus hotels, restaurants and shops. And bis assessment contradicts the city-commissioned report. His analysis says that with a proposed rent increase, the mobile homes would generate $55.14 per square foot -includ- ing revenues park residents pro- duce through sales tax, vehicle license fees, parking costs and fines, library fines, and state gas tax. He also notes that the hotel business hasn't been booming on the peninsula, citing the recent closing of the Little Inn on the Bay. The consultant report, on the other hand, says a hotel would generate $63 per square foot, while the entire combination of current uses brings in $24 per square foot. Under all of the development scenarios presented in the report, the American Legion hall would remain. The mobile home park sits on tidelands according to a recent boundary recommendation. That line could change, but only in the process of being reviewed by the state Lands Commission. The dty also owns tidelands at the Balboa Bay Club and Beacon Bay. But state officials consider the Balboa Bay Club publicly accessible. And the state allows Beacon Bay's 22 homes because they are permanent and were built before the tidelands regula- tions went into effect. In the last rental agreement in 1985, the city put residents on notice that the lease might not be renewed when it expires in 2000. Berkshire said he understands dty offidals' desire to profit from the 10.71-acre Marinapark. But he contended that keeping him and his fellow residents on the site would do the most good for everyone. ~1 would like the City Council to say, 'Gee Whiz, let's forget about this whole thing and start talking with Marinapark, n Berk- shire said. •we have no idea what they're going to do, but that's what we're always aiming for." Today, the City Council will also: • Consider plans for revitaliz- ing Mariner's Mile. • Reconsider a July 28 vote to allocate $5,950 from the Arts and Cultural Commission budget for establishing an American History reference collection at the library. briefly in the news Brush fire quickly doused by fir efighters Firefighters from more than a half dozen agencies used fire trucks, helicopters and a bulldoz- er to douse a small fire in Costa Mesa on Sunday. The blaze, which started at around 1 p.m., tazed a five-acre patch of tall i>rush on county property near the river bed off of Victoria t>treet ; Though the fire was relatively $mall, the tall foliage made it dif- ficult to reach. The Costa Mesa Fire Department dispatched four engines and one helicopter to (lrench the blaze. They were ~sisted by three Orange County Fire Authority trucks, a heli- copter from Huntington Beach and a bulldozer. • •1t wasn't a very large area," said Costa Mesa Fire Department Battalion Chief Jim Ellls. •But the trea it was in made it tough to get ,o ..

They stopped the blood I don't know . why ...

Bob- by Sherman now smiles from a lunch box near a vintage Barbie poised on a shiny carrying case. Sequined shirts dazzle from a spiraling rack in the window, promising rows of rare finds in fabric, metal and plastic. In the vintage clothing busi- ness, Tass explained, a buyer doesn't just place an order with a major manufactwer. Though Front End canies several new clothing lines, most of the store's fashions are hand-picked, one-of-a-kind remnants of hipper, happier days. And Tass selected nearly every item in the store herself, one at a time, in two short months that were a jumble of insurance companies, contrac- tors and countless hours of deaning the store's remains. She smiles when thinking beck on the colossal task, that is just now winding to a dose. ·1 just had to do it,· she said. ·I had to have my store back.

The Golden State Athletic Conterence is a little behind when it comes to local soccer, but that does not mean that intense competition, fiercely battle contests and last- minute goals will elude the Southern California fields this season. It simply means that with all the success of local youth pro- grams, one would think that the smaller colleges would reel in many more NCAA Division I-cal- iber players, and furthermore, that the GSAC schools would attract more soccer players from the district. It strikes one as odd that there ii just one local athlete on the ros- ters of the men's and women's soccer teams at Southern Califor- nia College, the little nook of a school that sits right here in Cos- ta Mesa. And the fact that just a sprin- k.Ung of local talent graces the conference of a school that sits in its own yard is surprising.

He added, "Pj>ysic;olly she is a very strong player who bas improved each year at sec .• ,;. Last st!ason the Vangv.ards took a dip •with a 10-8-1 record and a conference mark of 2-5-1 after maldng the GSAC postsea. ton tournament 1n '95. Fleener and the Vanguards lost their star Lori Van Herk to graduation. and the former Sailor will be called uPon to help till the leadership void. To avoid further decline fol- lowing the successful '95 cam-Fgn, Dameron went after some Junior college transfers and pl.eked up fow freshmen, the Closest among them is from Whit- tier, but another -Lori Collier - may be the most important new- comer and she is from llllnois. Collier was an NAIA all- regional midfielder last fall at Judson College. Concordia University is not just behind in recruiting locals, but behind in about every other :·aspect as the Eagles enter their ·first sea.son with a women's soc· .. cer program. : Under Coach Jeff Wells, ·though, the Eagles tout 19 •women on their roster, one of whom is Harbor alum Mindi Alford. Allard is a sophomore acade- mically (all of the women have freshman status athletically, except transfers.) She will vie for time as a midfielder. Even though ~e school is in Irvine, just five other women on the roster a.re from Orange Coun- ty. At Biota, in La Mirada, Costa Mesa's Sally Moffett will chal- 'lenge for a spot on the squad at ;the forward position. Coached by Chris Bruynzeel, ;the Riola Eagles were the GSAC's ·Worst team and did not tiave a :single Orange County native in ;the lineup. A mere coincidence? :Maybe we'll find out this year. Concordia will visit sec at :4:30 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 24. : Bio la ma.lees its stop in Costa :Mesa at 4:30r. Saturday, Oct. ·4. Dameron. Aeener and the rest ;ot the Vanguards get started with ;their preseason slate this week ;whep they travel to La Jolla to ·face UC San Diego at 4:30 p.m. :Friday.
