South County Wary of Newport airport stance-
• The city's shift away from
pressing for El Toro is meeting
with skepticism.
Paul Olnton
DAILY PILOT
NEWPORT BEACH -Some
South County leaders haven't swal-
lowed the news that Newport Beach
has left the field of battle over build-
ing an airport at El Toro.
Mayor Tod Ridgeway, on March
21, said the city would not work to
overturn Measure W, which rezones
the closed El Toro Marine base from
aviation use to a park, and that it
would not spend any more money to
develop an airport there.
· But with the d ty still a member of
the Orange Count Regional Airport
Authority, a 14-city coalition of
North County cities suing to over-
turn the measure, initiative
spokesman Len Kranser said he was
skeptical Newport Beach has
changed its stance.
The authority voted on March 13,
with Newport Beach representative
Gary Proctor absent, to sue to over-
turn Measure W. The authority fol-
lowed through on March 18 by filing
the lawsuit.
The suit claims Measure W is
deceptive and uncons.titutional.
Kranser also pointed out that
over the years the city bas invested
a tremendous amount of taxpayer
money in the pro-airport effort.
Between 1994 and this year, New-
port Beach spent $10.94 million.
•tt's hard to believe that a city
that has fought for 20 years would
suddenly stop,· Kran.ser said. •1t's
reasonable to be skeptical.•
On Wednesday, however, Ridge-
way reiterated the city's stance: The
City Council will focus on securing
an extension of the flight caps at
John Wayne Airport.
"It's in our best interests to
remain a member,• Ridgeway said.
"It's a regional airport organization.
We've made it dear we are not a
party to the lawsuit:
The dty has also not embraced
what bas become known as the V-
plan, Ridgeway said.
Art Bloomer, the airport authori-
ty's executive director, wrote a letter
to county supervisors urging them to
consider the plan, which would
send planes southwest wstead of
north or east.
Under the V-plan, planes would
bead over some high-priced homes
in the Newport Coast area, Ridge-
way Said.
·That is something we have nev-
er supported,• Ridgeway said. MWe
are not supporters of the V-plan. •
Newport Beach council members
are working on a lmal agreement
that would extend flight restrictions
at John Wayne Airport through
201 5.

DAILY PILOT
T o say Louise Greeley was a
woman with a cause would
vastly understate her 20-year
effort to transform a weed-
infested parcel of land into a Newport
Beach park.
Her efforts paid off last year when
land at the intersection of Superior
Avenue and West Coast Highway
was finally wrestled out of the bands
of the California Department of
"ftansportation.
The d ty wa.s able to buy the 15-
acre parcel for Sl.3 million -the
same price Caltrans paid in 1966 -
sooty officials can develop a park at
what is known locally as ·sunset
Ridge."
Earlier th.is month, Greeley was
honored for her persistence, the latest
in a string of awards since October.
State Sen. Ross Johnson, who rep-
resents Costa Mesa and Newport
Beach, honored the West Newport
resident as the 2002 Woman of the
Year for his 35th Senate District.
Johnson's Senate BW 12• allowed
the dty to buy the 14nd for a fourth of
its appraised value. Gov. Gray Davis
slgned the bill into law on Oct. 12.

•Money for preservation of

depending on how Newport
leaders interpret local rules.
June Casagrande
DAILY PILOT
NEWPORT BEACH -City officials
want to know how many residents rent
out their pnvate docks and whether the
practice is so widespread that the city
should levy portions of the ~ntal fees to
pay for tidelands preservation and
unprovement.
City Council members will examine
the issue 111 an upcoming study session.
and it's likely that the soon-to-be-
fonned Harbor Commission will take
on the issue as one of its first tasks,
Assistant City Manager Dave Kiff said.
·we need to find out more about
what the law says,· Kitt said. ·we need
to tackle the question of how we would
measure the practice.·
Local ordinances, as well as the city's
agreement with the Calilorrua State
Lands Commiss1on, are unclear
whether the practice is unproper or
possibly illegal. City ordinances distin-
guish commercial from pnvate piers,
designating only multi-slip piers as
ones that can be rented for a fee.
The private piers also are in state-
owned tidelands. Most of the time
when tidelands are used for profit, the
oty IS ~ to collect a portion of
the proceeds and put the money in a
tidal fund. The fund is used to pay for
environmental preservation and
improvements, such as dredgmg the
waterways.
A lands commission representative
has said it's not clear whether the situ-
ation m Newport Harbor constitutes a
violation of the spmt of the city's agree·
ment with the state.
Those are the types of questions the
dty will look into, Kiff said.
While no one bas advocate<l prohibit-
ing the pracbce, it's po11Sl1ie the city
would want to regulate it. perhaps With
lease agreements, and charge a fee.

performed. Reach
back in your mind for
the saddle reverse seen in tha't
obscure Western, the woman
standing on the pony in • Jum-
bo,• horses jumping over
obstacles during the Summer
Olympics.
Add elements of theater -
lighting design, opulent cos-
tumes, live music, dramatic
makeup. Now imagine all of it
in one show. Go beyond that
and you have "Cbeval: Imagi-
nation at Full Gallop.·
Put together by Gilles Ste-
Croix, former director of cre-
ation for Cirque du Soleil, the
show brings together 30 horses
and 30 humans under a hand-
painted big top in the parking
lot of the Orange County Fair-
grounds. It's a show dipped in
magic and sprinkled with
sequins.
Whether you know the dif-
ference between a canter and
a gallop or not. there is some-
thing for you in "Cheval, •
which is French for horse. The
horses, of a variety of breeds
from Andalusian to mixed
quarter, are beautiful and well
trained. But it is the humans
who steal the show -and per-
form the most astounding
stunts. •
Acrobats vault off the sides
of trotting horses, heedless of
the hooves. There are flips and
double flips, both on, off and
between the equines. Perform-
ers balance themselves on the
backs of moving animals and
then balance more people on
their shoulders. One of the acts
resembles a 1950s water-skiing
show, with horses in place of
skis.
There is no story line to
"Cheval, • but there are char-
acters and situations -a
lovesick clown, a team of fierce
Cossacks, a royal pair doing an
equine minuet, a band of gyp-
sies.

the audience laughing time
and time again. Perland's per-
formance in the last half with a
real horse who refuses to fol-
low his direction is absolutely
charming.
With her regal bearing and
sharply cracking whip, Caro-
line Williams commands the
attention of the audience and
of six Andalu.sians. The horses
glide one way, then the other,
following directions by
Williams, who croons to them
in a combination of French and
English. It is an impressive dis-
play of training.
The acrobatics of the Zam-
perla Zoppe brothers -Matt
and Olissio -thrill and chill.
Their performance, which
includes Matt climbing on
Olissio's shoulders as he stands
on a moving horse and then
doing a flip to land on the
backs of two horses following,
is not for the faint of heart ..
But the real highlight of the
show is the juggling of Robert
Donnert and Anita Fuzy. The
duo combines the difficulty of
juggling with the challenges of
standing on a horse with style
and grace. When Donnert has
six pins in the air, swapping
them with Fuzy -on the
ground, and later on a following
horse -you just have to gape,

mouth open. It's astounding.
While the music for
·cheval• is quite good, with
rhythms that set the pace for
many an act, the transitions
between scenes need work.
Having stirring tunes stop
abruptly is jarring.
Because of the danger and
difficulty of some of the stunts,
it mv not be advisable to take
small children to the show. Per-
formen do on occasion fall,
and that can be disturbing.
•ChevaI• falls in a IOft gray
area somewhere between a
circus show and a theab'ical
experience. The bonds
between man or woman and
hoJSe are stretched tight, mak-
ing for an exciting evening.
And in the end, as you walk
past the st.ables where the per-
formers are combing their
horses afterward, you can't
help but marvel at both.

Councilwoman Norma
Glover said she preferred not

She said the city is working to

mating that 50% to 60% of
the boats docked at the city's
1,200 private piers are in rent-
ed space, that would mean
that between $4 million and
$7 million a year could be
changing hands in Newport
Beach between private pier
owners and renters
Some in town say these
figures are greatly exaggerat-
ed. The study checked own-
ership records on 63 boats
docked at 33 private piers
and found 62% of them were
not registered to the dock
owners. Estimating that the
average boat size was 40 feet,
the report arrived at $5,000 a
year rental fees based on a
rate of $10.42 per month per
fool At $20 per month per
foot, the annual receipts are
$9,600. Space at a city.owned
rental slip is about $17 a foot
for a 40-foot boat
•rd say the 62% estimate
is probably pretty close,• said

D · enovations to the historic Lido
1'.Cinema, a fixture in Newport
~ for 62 ycan, were completed
dlis month, restoring the luster of the
unique art deco theater. Ope~ed in
1939, th'e landmark cinema was
considered a national showplace
featuring more than 600 seats, a full
balcony and a fluorescent, black-lit
mural depicting an underwater
landscape.
The six-month restoration project was
completed by the.Fritz Duda
~ Company, manager of Via
N Lido Plaza. According to
~ John Loper, vice
~ president of the
~ company's California
division, the intricate o · renovation included
'"-o repairing the pre-World
·~ War II marquee and
~ painting the exterior, with
special attention given to
~ the aging an deco plaster
~ columns.
"In this modem age of
sterile, small screen multi-plexes, the
large, historic theater gives
moviegoers an incredible experience,"
Loper said.
The cinema has added a state-of-the-
art Dolby digital sound system, a new
extra-wide screen and upgrades to the
projections system.
"The improvements were designed to
maximize the movie-going experience
while preserving the an deco flavor
that customers have come to expect at
the Lido Cinema," Loper said.
Ellen Gladis, a local Newport Beach
artist, assisted by painters Kun and
Eric Weiser, painstakingly restored ·
the elaborate ocean mun! to its
original luster using custom
Buorescent paints.
The Lido Cm~a is opcrited by
Regency TheatreS, ~c., which also
runs the Regency Laguna Beach
Theater as well as theaters in
Westlake Village, Camarillo and
Omard.
· According to Lyndon Golin, president
of Regency Theatres, "The Lido
Theater will show the highest quality
first-run commercial, independent and
foreign films offering one of the finest
J movie-going ezpcriences in Orange
County."
Laeuunle Theatre, LLC will provide
booking for the cinema.
