FELONY CHARGES
Costa Mesa Councilman Chris
Steel will continue to face felony
charges for allegedly signing nomi-
nabon papers for a legally blind
woman in 1998 and allowing
another resident to COPS & sign for his wife in
COURTS 2000. The Orange Coun-
ty district attorney has charged
Steel with two felony counts of per-
jury relating to those incidents.
Steel's dttomey made a plea Friday
to reduce the charges to misde-
meanors, argwng that Steel's
alleged acbons do not warrant the
felony charges. But Judge Edward
Laird denied the motion. Steel is
expected to be arraigned on the
chdrges July 10.
Also, West Newport residents
met with Newport Beach Police
officers Wednesday night for a pub-
lic forum on Fourth of July arrange-
ments on Bdlboa Island. Officers
said there are several changes in
patrolling and enforcement strate-
gies tlus yedI, bdsed on suggestions
from residents and th eir own
review of previous years' plans.
More police ofhcers will be
assigned to foot patrol this year.
Building officials will also remain
on call to nl>nitor the situation at

PHOTO OF THE WEEK· -'HAPPY 100TH BIRTH/JAY'
TNOUll1I flOM M Kiiis I w03 looking forward
to photographing the 100th birthday party of Ed
Hemphill. All my equipment was ready to go.
After meeting him, I walked ahead of him as h e
walked to the cafeteria with aid from the staJf.
I was looking for a good mom~nt to signify the
event. I entered the cafeteria and most of the peo-
ple there wondered who the heck I was and why
the cameras. Soon they knew. But when I realized
my flash wasn't working, I began to focWJ my
attention on my equipment failure rather than the
moment. I kept shooting anyway, trying to figure
out how to get a nice photo without the flash, since
two giant windows ruined the shot behind
Hemphill's seat.
They began to sing "Happy Birthday" as I
moved around the scene hoping for something
decent. I chose to shoot further C1Way from the
scene with a longer Jens because it made a bf!tter
picture than up close with a wide angle, The
choice paid off when he got up to blow out the
candles. He stood, held onto the table, stared into
the centei of the cake and began to cry. I click ed a
shot when he wiped a tear from his face as I was
moving backward through lunch tables. I wasn 't
sure I had it. I checked Immediately on the digital
camera and saw it was there. It was the moment I
prepared for, and I'm glad I didn't miss it. Always
be prepared for several great momenta or just one.

BASKETBlll '°' DRlllLES ON
The Estancia High School's girls basketball team was
saved from the possibility of a Jost season when Mobil Oil
COSTA Co. agreed to donate $4,000 to compensate the
team for its potential furld-raising losses. MESA ( The team lost its biggest furld-raiser of the
"°'year when the company denied permission for
it to have its annual fireworks stand behind a Mobil gas sta-
tion at Harbor Boulevard and Baker Street.
The property had previously been owned by C.J.
Segerstrom & Sons. Mobil, which bought it within the last
year, cited safety reasons for not allowing the fireworks.
The girls protested in front of the station Monday morn,.
ing, but had their protest cul short Tuesday, when the
school's principal met with Mobil representatives to discuss the situation. .
The donation was then worked out and the girls will do gardening work around the school m return
for it. They're going to tend a rose garden.

Owners of a 55-NEWPORT foot boat that has IEACH Balboa Island resi-
dents talking
docked their yacht alongside a
pier in front of their two island
homes last week. While residents
have argued that parking the boat
parallel to the beach would,
among other things, block many
views, the owners docked it paral-
lel to the pier, which is perpendic-
ulat to the beach.
Newport Beach Councilman
Steve Bromberg, who requested
temporary docking to see how it
affected the. view, said as far as
the law goes, it would appear the
boat can legally dock there.
City officials had previously
ruled against allowing owner
Lodwrtck M . Cook to park the
boat parallel to the beach.
Also, the dty'a first Greenlight ·
vote looks ld be imminent. City
Coundl members th.ts week
approved a 250,000-square-foot
expansion for the Koll Center.
In November, about 60% of the
city's voters approved the Greeijr
light initiative, the city's slow-
growth law.

Daily Pilot
fames McFadden and the
founding of a 'new port'
Young Chang
DAILY PILOT
Sometimes it does all boil
down to one person.
James McFadden was
looki~J BACK
the name you
heard around
town in the
1800s, when
Newport
'1 Beach was
merely a wharlside village
known predominantly as the
home of McFadden's compa-
ny, the Newport Wharf and
LWl\ber Company.
Enormous freight and pas-
senger vessels stopped by to
load and unload here, and
McFadden's dream was to
make Newport {it was a
"new port") Beach the~st
commerdal !iohipping port
that Southern California ever
saw, according to "Newport
Beach: The First Century:
1888-1988 .•
This didn't happen
because the city instead took
a less industrial route to
fame. But McFadden's name
is what we arrive at when
we trace the origins way,
way back.
"He is part of what built
our community here in the
area. what with the railroad
coming down here and
bringing all the lumber and
the ships,• said Gay Wassall-
Kelly, a long-lime resident of
Newport Beach.
McFadden was born in
1833 and died in 1918. Con-
sidered the founderJ>f New-
port Beach, he was a resident
of Santa Ana but owned and
ran maritime shipping busi-
nesses on the bay at New-
port Landing and on the
oceanfront too.
McFadden and his family
were also ranchers, and at
one point they had trouble
keeping wild horses from
destroying their crop, Was-
sail-Kelly said. They ordered
lumber to keep the horses
out. and that one train of
wood eventually grew into
an industry.
The story starts with
McFadden's purchase of
what was then called the
Rancho Santa Ana lands. He
was a widower from :-1ew
York and only 35 ye~ old.
He saw Newport Bay f" hav-
ing seaport potential.
Many settlers became ·
farmers and by the mid
1870s, the city had a general
store, a post ofrice and a
school.
ln the meantime, the
McFaddens -James and his
brother Robert -engaged in
the lumber business, bring-
ing loaded vessels in and out
of Newport Harbor.
~~
James McFadden. who
lived in Santa Ana, ls
considered to be the
founder of Newport Beach.
They had a special boat
made for this task in San
Frandsco. The schooner was
aptly called the Newport. But
increased populations in the
1880s, coupled with the com-
pletion of the Santa Fe ~ail
road and a resurgence in
building, made it impossible
for the McFadden team and
Newport Harbor alone to
supply the entire community
with lumber. (
The bay was also dariger-
ous at parts. Ground swells.
shallow waters and other
landscape-hazards had
caused the death of many
sailors.
James Mcfadden was
always trying to solicit feder-
al help for harbor improve-
ments. ln the late 1880's, in
the middle <>f yet another
attempt by McFadden to get
government aid, an employee
named Tom Rule drowned in
the bay while working.
According to "Newport
Beach: The First Century,·
the brothers had mourned
when yet another set of sea-
mari had drowned in the
violent bay. One theory is
that Rule's death was what
made the brothers give up
their ·business at Newport
Landing.
They eventually moved it
from the bay to the ocean-
front. b~an to build a wharf
arid even a railway to S.anta
Alla. By August of 1888, the
project was completed and
the city's prosperous streak
as a shipping port began.
"They had the foresight
and opened the Newport
Beach area to-the world, and
look what we've got.· Was-
sail-Kelly said.

hen Lodwrick
M. Cook first
hinted that he
wanted to
move his exist-
ing pier 40 feet to the east so he
could dock his 55-foot yacht
there, his fellow Balboa Island
residents grew outraged, firing 1 off more than 50 letters to the
Daily Pilot.
Only two letters supported
Cook's desire, and one drew a
couple more attacks as a result.
The two writers suggested that a
property owner has rights and
should be able to do as he or she
pleases.
It would appear, however,
that the masses do not support
Cook's request to park his boat
in front of his two South Bay "
Front residences.
For one, ~boa Island resi-
dents point out that Cook does-
n't live in either of the homes,
instead making his residence in
Sherman Oaks. What drew the
residents' largest criticism,
though, was the proposed con-
figurations of Cook's OOa.t: paral-
lel to the beach.
Newport Beach city officials
denied Cook's re<niest to move .
the pier. At the time, Council-
man Steve Bromberg, who lives
on Little Balboa Island, said the
city made the right decision, b1,1t
then made his own request -
that the bocit pe docked tem-
porarily to allow everyone a
peek at how it affects the view.
When Cook's family brought
the yacht in for that brief dock-
ing last week, though, it parked
perpendicular to the beach.
Bromberg said, "Right now, as
the policy is written, that boat
can st.ay there."
A few residents disagreed,
continuing to point out that the
yacht is large. But the city never
set a maximum size for boats
Instead, we would urge
the Cooks to be good
neighbors -especially
because they said thls
week that they plan to
occupy one of the
residences -and yield to
their neighbors' wishes,
even if it means parking
the yacht elsewhere.
that are docked along piers.
Bromberg said City Council
members should take a look at
that.
We agree with the majority of
the island's residents, and we
believe the boat should not be
allowed to dock parallel to the
bea~. ~urther, we urge city offi-
cials .ta' stick with their· original
decision and not succumb to
pressure from the rather influen-
tial Lodwrick Cook or his
acquaintances, some of whom · are rumored to be living in the
nation's capital.
Cook should realize that there
are other places to park large
yachts.
Still. if there are no rules
against parking such a yacht
along the pier perpendicular to
the beach, the city must allow it
unless the law is otherwise
amended.
Instead, we would urge the
Cooks to be good neighbors -
especially because they said this
week that they plan to occupy
one of the residences -and
yield to their neighbors' wishes,
even if it means parking the
yacht elsewhere.
While they can point out that.

the right to dock their yacht
there, it still doesn't hurt to be

Gett.illg ready
for _the big. bang
Andrew Theodorou of Newp9rt Dunes talks about preparing for Fourth of July
'
I t's the biggest show of the year
in Newport Bea·ch.
The Newport Dunes fireworks
on the Fourth of July draw
thousands and thousands of people
for a 20-odd minut~ spectacular to
celebrate the nation's birthday.
But th~'s more to it than just a
half-hour of bright lights and loud
bangs, as Dunes General Manager
Andrew Theodorou can attest.
There's even more than the limbo
dances, the volleyball tournament
and the carnival.
Weeks of intense preparatiQn
lead up to the big night. And dur-
ing the show itself, Dunes workers
don't get much time to enjoy what's
going oh overhead.
But everyone else does. And
that's the point. .
Taking time out tlom these busy
days, Theodorou -who has been
in the hotel business for almost 30
years, about 2 1/2 with the Dunes
-sat down with Pilot Senior City
Editor S.J. Cahn to discuss the
Dunes' annual Fourth of July
tradition ..
Flnt. a little history: When did
the Dune1 It.art lb f:lreworkl lbow
and bow b&l lt cba.Dged over tbe
yeant
It's our 43rd annual fireworks
show. It's obviously grown over the
years, and it's now very recognized
in the community. The City is a co-
1poD10r • ..4.nd, importantly, it'• a faml·
ly event. We don't alloW alc:ohol on
the beach, to encourage that. ·
What Is the most spectacular
moment of the sbowl
There's the big finale. [The show)
will probably go 20 to 22 minutes.
The finale is pretty spectacular.
Surrounding our resort, there's a
lot of people on the cliffs. on the
highway, so the final has got to be
pretty spectacular. ·
What ls planned for this yearf
There'll be a lot of activities on
the beach~
It starts early, it starts at 10
o'dock, and we'll have activities
through the day.
A lot of the stuff is for the RV park
guests. We do a parade throughout
the park that's for them.
There are a lot of people on the
property. They barbecue, there's a
DJ throughout the day.
We'll have ~ Sam and O\lf
mascot, MobYD~s. walking
around. How's that? He's our famous
whale.
There's volleyball every year -
the carnival games, the face paint-
ing. The limbo contest is something
we've started recently. The hula
hoop [contest) is something we start-
ed a few years ago.
Where do all tbe flreworks1 come
fro• and bow loag does It lake to
plan aDcl tbell to acbWly Mt It apt
Preparation takes a number of •
weeks. We have a team of over 200
ataff memben, and we work with
Pyro Spectacular.
They're very popular. They do the
Macy'• 'lbanklgtving Day parade in
New York. They do a lot bf pop
(music] shows, a lot of theme parks
-Six Flags. They did the Sta~e of
Liberty Centennial, that was them.
We expect between 11,000 and
15,000 people on the property.
There's a lot of security, parking and
crowd control. There's a lot of coordi-
nation. There's a lot of meetings.
The fire department is involved, of
course. We're obviously very safety
conscientious.
What's the most d.lttlcult part
of getttng tbe llreworks show
togetherJ
It hasn't really been difficult
btcause we've been doing it for so
many yea.rs. I can't say. It's just the
general stuff.
How busy do you get ln the final
day1 bef~re It goes oftl
We have a lot of activities on the
beach on the Fourth of July. There's
a lot to coordinate. And we have the
RV side.
It's the singfe busiest day of the
year for us, yes. Everybody basically
works, and we have a full staff on
tluty.
(On the Fourthl we're very, very
busy. We make sure things go with-
out any glitches. We make sure it's
perfected.
; When it's over, we concentrate on
the aowd, and how to get all those
people out of here.
And. f.lnally, wbat'I your tavorUe tlnwodt .

a _bridge
I can sell you
·Jo Gerlach
SOUNDING BOARD _
I 'd like to offer a few
thoughts tegarding the
19th Street bridge. First ot an. let's stop thl.9'non.sense
about beach access. We on
the Westside have plenty of
beach access. We can get to
the beach faster than a good
deal of East.side Costa Mesa,
parts of Newport Beach, and
much faster than the Mesa
Verde neighborhood where
Bob Graham lives.
I'm personally against
any bridges being built in
Costa Mesa as l feel we've
dcme more than our share of
being a thoroughfare for
other cities. But if Graham tS
so concerned about beach
access, perhaps he should
be rallying his Mesa Verde
neighbors to get the Gisler
bridge built. Just think how
convenient it would be for
them to get to Brookhurst
and shoot down to Hunting-
ton State Beach -·our
beach."
Secondly. let's be honest.
Several of the bridge propo-
nents don't even live on the
West.side. It is my opiruon
that these people -like the
Wallace group -want the
bridge for the pnmary rea-
son of being able to bwld
more units on their rental
properties. ln fact, one of
these people publidy admit-
ted as much when he said
that he couldn't build any
more wilts if the bridge
were eliminated from the
master plan.
It is also my opiruon that
these people want to profit
regardless of the expense to
us Westsiders, who actually
live here. There's nothing
wrong with wanting to
make more money and
improve one's property. but
please don't bombard us
with propaganda about
beach access and malang
our properties worth more.
Anyone with a br~
knows that the additional
traffic, noise and pollution
can only significantly dimin-
ish our quality of life and
decrease our property
values.
And to say that the exist-
ing businesses will prosper
because of the bridge is also
nonsense. The commuters
using the bridge aren't
interested in shopping on
19th Street. They will be
blowing through Costa
Mesa to the beach and at
the end of the day, back
again to the freeway, not
picking up a quart of milk at
the new market.
And lastly, as far as New-
port Beach being the hold-
out in eliminating the
bridge: How about IODle
mutual back saatchingl .
Costa Mesa could whole-
heartedly commit to the ~
po}t of a regional airport at
El Toro, a.nd NeWport 8eacb
could sign otf on tbe bridge.
It would be a wtn-wtn lltua-
tion for Cost.a Mesa. Just a
thought.
