Hobe) Friendly Group 7- Ordinance No. 954. (F:150.2)(X:160.2)
City Manager Molendyk summarized this project and noted that
it had been heard by the Planning Commission on several
occasions.
The City Clerk reported no written comments or protests,
Mayor T~7ashburn opened the public hearing at 7:24 pem.e asking
~hose persons interested in this item to speak.
Bill Fruin, Driftwood Lane, indicated that this project
is located behind his home. He noted an easement which is
PAGE NINE - CITY COONCIL MINUTES - MAY 25~ 1993
also behind his home which has come to be used like an
alleyway, causing a loss of privacy for his home. He
suggested that a keyed gate at each end of this easement would
assist in resolving this problem. He expressed concern with
the amount of fill dirt used behind his home and questioned
the level of maintenance which would occur on the slope. He
noted other areas where the slopes are not adequately
maintained. He further noted the increased loss of privacy
with the construction of these homes and questioned whether
they one be one or two story homes.
Mayor Washburn indicated that while he has not seen the model
plans for this tract, he believed the homes with which Mr.
Fruin was concerned might be Lewis Homes rather than this
applicant.
Belinda Nabonne, Apple Blossom Lane, expressed concern
wih the proposed project, notinq that a number of the back
yards in this project will be facing the front yards on her
street. She also noted the difference in elevations and
expressed concern with the fencing proposed, as wrought iron
will afford her street views of items that are commonly in
back yards. She suqqested that this wall of the development
be solid, or that particular row of homes be deleted from the
plan.
Fred Crowe, representing the Keith Companies, indicated that
they are the designers and planners of this project. He
stressed the efforts to please the adjoining property owners,
noting that he feels it will be a very nice project. He
confirmed the elevation difference noted by Ms. Nabonne. He
indicated that this row of homes is designed for view lots,
noting that they will not have conventional back yards. He
detailed the proposed confiquration of these homes on the
lots. He indicated that the Property Owners Association would
be responsible for maintaining slopes and he would see no
problem with placing a gate on the easement as requestede
City Manager Molendyk requested clarification of this project
versus the location of Lewis Homes. Mr. Crowe indicated that
the pads mentioned must be Lewis Homes, as there are no pads
graded for this project to date.
Mayor Washburn closed the public hearing at 7:24 p.m.
Councilwoman Cherveny clarified for Mr. Fruin that this
development would have a homeowners association which carried
more authority that CC & R's. Mr. Fruin expressed concern
that the maintenance would be only as good as the enforcement.
Mrs. Cherveny further clarified that authority of a homeowners
association.
After review of the project map, it was determined that the
pads behind Mr. Fruin's home are part of ~he Lewis Homes
project. City Manager Molendyk suggested that Mr. Fruin meet
with City Planner Leslie for an update on the Lewis Homes
project.
Councilwoman Cherveny addressed page 5, item 17 of the
specific plan regarding a commitment for additional fire and
PAGE TEN - CITY COONCIL MINIITEB - MAY 25~ 1993
police services. She requested that consideration be given to
an assessment to address at least the first year°s services.
She suggesteci possibly $500 per unit. City Manager Molendyk
requested clarifica~ion from the City Attorney with regard to
the ability to assess such a fee in this case.
City Attorney Harper explained that in contrast to a
development agreement consideration, the City is not able to
assess fees which have not been adopted by ordinanceo He
indicated that such a fee would need to be based on benefit
and actual cost of services. He further indicated that if the
developer is committed to the City-wide tax, then there is no
problem imposing that.
Mayor Washburn indicated that there was one additional
gentleman requesting to speak and he yielded the floor to him.
Chris Newell, resident of Spruce Street, addressed the
proposed wall around this developer and suggested fhat the
perimeter be stucco and 5 to 6 feet tall to eliminate views
into the back yards. He stressed the need to look at the new
Lake Elsinore and involve the residents in the progress. He
indicated that he wants to be involved in the development of
this area to maintain the quiet, pleasing atmosphere wrhich now
exists. He concurred with the concerns earlier expressed
concerning the easement notinq that there is a problem with
teens congregating there. He agreed that a gate at Ohio
Street would help,
Councilwoman Cherveny questioned the easement. Mr. Crowe
indicated that it was part of the Lewis Homes project.
Mayor Washburn questioned the open space and handling of the
landscapinq plan. Mr. Crowe noted that his project is
conditioned to obtain design approval for the entire fencing
program and landscaping plan for this project. He stressed
the applicant's sensitivity to the concerns of the neighboring
property owners. He also indicated that when those plans come
forward the adjacen~ property owners could be notified.
Mayor Washburn commented on the grading and inquired how dust
and land slippage would be mitigated. Mr. Crowe indicated
that this would be continually monitored by the soils
engineer. He further indicated that the project is
conditioned to be landscaped immediately after grading.
Councilman Alongi noted other existing problems with homes
overlooking other properties and suggested that possibility of
an ordinance to address this,
Councilwoman Cherveny questioned the Council's ability to
place a condition such as #46 requiring funding of a portion
of a traffic signalo City Attorney Harper indicated that this
was pursuant to an adopted fee,

City Manager Molendyk explained this item and detailed the
location. He read the following letter from Alan Manee, Manee
Consulting Services:
Honorable Mayor and City Council:
On behalf of the project applicants, we accept the
conditions of approval and make one request to this
action. The applicant requests that this time extension
be granted for a 24-month period due primarily to a very
uncertain residential housing market. As you know, this
is a"fill-in" project and all lots are oversize. We
feel that it will be one of the first small subdivisions
sold. Our concern is the most uncertain housing market
for the Southern California area which prompts this
request. We feel that the additional time would be a
prudent consideration under these circumstances.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter and
understanding.
Alan Constantino Manee, Principal
Alan Manee, 409 Oak Lawn Avenue, South Pasadena, explained
this request further and stressed the difficulty in the
current housing market. He indicated that the project is

Peter Dawson, 18010 Grand Avenue, addressed the efforts of the
Southshore Homeowners to continue discussions with the City.
He addressed the regulations to be adopted by the City and
indicated his concern was on paqes 3 and 4 regarding launch
rights. He sugqested that Section C.4. on page 12 of this
report be clarified or deleted. He indicated that it would
not be a problem if the lake is maintained at a reasonable
high level, but questioned this regulation if it was not.
Councilwoman Cherveny indicated that she had met with the
Southern California Joint Powers Insurance Authority
representatives last week and noted that their biggest concern
was the existence of a speed limit. She suggested that it
might be appropriate to set a speed limit in the "high speed
zone" as well. Manager of Special Projects Watenpaugh
concurred that this was a concern of the JPIA representatives
and they would prefer that all areas be regulated.
Councilwoman Cherveny noted that the speed limit could be
waived for special events such as boat races, but a day-to-day
regulation should exist.
City Manager Molendyk noted that the representatives would be
meeting with State officials next.
Mayor Washburn stressed the importance of adopting these
regulations to insure they are in place for the transfer,
Mayor Washburn noted that he had received comments regarding
the ability to allow hovercraft, hours of operation, etc. He
indicated that the Lake Advisory Committee would be discussing
these issues and providing input and stressed the potential
for change of this document on a continuing basis. He also
noted the attractiveness of the ability to speed on the lake
and expressed concern with limiting that.
Councilwoman Cherveny clarified that the speed limit had been
a request of the insurance representatives.
City Attorney Harper explained that the regulations would be
the same, however the document would be amended to include
numbering for the executive orders.
Councilwoman Cherveny questioned the ability to chanqe the
document later. City Attorney Harper clarified.
Mayor Washburn reiterated the need to have something in place
before the transfer occurs.
City Attorney Harper recommended adoption of the materials as
written and if necessary it can be amended.
Councilman Winkler commented that he would assume this
document will come back many times; noting that speed limit,
hovercraft, etc. are issues which can be pursued further.
Councilman Alongi noted that he has concerns with fencing
which can be addressed later as well.

City Manager Molendyk e~lained this item and noted that the
Chamber had offered to share the 6~ proceeds ~hey would be
receiving with the City.
Councilman Winkler questioned the cost of advertising to be
shared. City Manager Molendyk indicated that it would most
likely be ~he cost of staff time.
Community Services Director Sapp explained that there was
discussion of the City helping to promote the event. He
emphasized the Chamber°s willingness to share their 6~
proceeds from the event. He suggested that $1,000 might be
the cap for the amount to be spent on the event promotions.

event, and expressed concern with the loca~ion, traffic
problems and disturbances fo residents in the area. She
stressed the point that this activity would be occurring for
four weekends in a row.

Director Sapp indicated that the site choice had been
considered by O'Conner Foods, and this was their first choice
and the primary site considered. Iie indicated that he was not
aware of interest in any other sites.
Mayor Washburn indicated that he thought this even~ was a good
idea it properly mitigated.
Councilwoman Cherveny questioned ~he possibility of using the

the promoter had looked at another site outside City limits,
near Highway 74 and the freeway however it had similar
problems to the Rodeo sitea
PAGE THIRTY-FIVE - CITY COIINCIL MINiJTEB - MAY 25~ 1993
Mayor Washburn inquired whether the participants would be open
to other locations. Mr. Hundshamer indicated they would if
there was adequate power and water on site and room for the
tent. He noted that the Rodeo grounds have water and power
and are freeway close.
Mayor Washburn suggested that staff work with the Chamber to
consider other sites.
Mr. Hundshamer stressed the requirements placed on the alcohol
licensee with regard to keeping alcohol on site only.
Councilman Alongi noted that the Rodeo grounds are in his
neighborhood and indicated that he could support the activity,
but not at this location. He stressed that this location is
in a residential area. He noted the reference to 11bouncer"
type security guards and indicated that this would suggest the
potential for problems. He questioned the ability to mitigate
and control the concerns and their impact on the neighborhood,
Mayor Pro Tem Dominguez indicated that he would have no
problem with the location, but would want to see a cap placed
on the cost of advertising.
Councilman Winkler indicated that he does not share the same
concerns with regard to the location. He stressed the other
continuing events at this location such as the Rodeo which
also includes alcohol.
MOVED BY WINKLER, SECONDED BY DOMINGUEZ TO APPROVE STAFF
RECOMMENDATIONS AND ACCEPT THE CHAMBER IN~IITATION AS A COSPONSOR

live in this area and the rodeo doesn~t go until 1 a.m., as
this event does. He indicated that the Chamber might control
the traffic effectively, but not at night when the event is
over. He stressed the impact of this event on the
neighborhood.
Mayor Pro Tem Dominguez stressed the City's efforts to promote
events for tourism, and the need to evaluate eacfi event
individually.
Mayor Washburn questioned the motion and whether it was for
of nly the one location. He suggested pursuit an alternate
location near highway 74 and Central as there would not be the
same problems.
Councilman Winkler indicated that the motion allowed room for
change of the site.
THE FOREGOING MOTION WAS AMENDED WITH CONCURRENCE OF THE SECOND TO
LOOK AT ALTERNATIVE SITES FOR THE EVENT.
Mr. Hundshamer inquired whether the City would assist him in
finding other locations.
City Manager Molendyk indicated that the City would want to
assist to make the event successful. He noted the Autumnfest
started at the airport last year and suggested that this might
PAGE THIRTY-SIR ~ CITY COIINCIL MIN[TTES - MAY 25~ 1993
be an opportunity to expand the event. He indicated that
staff would work with Mr. Hundshamer and return to Council if
additional site consideration is needed.

indicated that this has been addressed with the property owner
and he would agree to additional grading and striping of his

additional $8,000.
MOVED BY DOMINGUEZ, SECONDED BY WASHBURN TO ACCEPT THE COMPLETION
OF THE BOAT LAUNCH FACILITY AND AUTHORYZE STAFF TO PROCEED WITH THE
ADDITIONAL DUST CONTROL FOR THE BALANCE OF THE BOAT TRAILER PARKING
LOT, NOT TO EXCEED $8,000.
Mayor Washburn inquired whether handicapped parking had been
provided to boaters. Manager of Special Projects Watenpaugh
indicated that signs have been ordered for the lot across the
street, but potential additional spaces could be provided on
site.
Councilman Alongi suggested that it might be necessary to
exclude single cars from the lot. Mr. Watenpaugh indicated
that the spaces along Lakeshore are intended for single cars,
but it may be necessary to specifically sign those spaces.
Councilman Alongi questioned the recommendation and the
ability to combine City Council and Redevelopment Agency
actions. He suggested that the Redevelopment Agency
consideration be deferred to that time in the meetinq. City
Attorney Harper indicated that this consideration would be
adequate subject to Redevelopment Agency concurrence.
Councilwoman Cherveny indicated that she had a problem with
the project based on her understanding of the Operating
Agreement for the ramp, as well as the construction of the
launch ramp without going before Council. She indicated by
her reading of the agreement, the City would never own the
ramp, or generate any fees. She questioned the arrangement
~or ownership and operation by the State.
City Attorney Aarper clarified that the facility will be
transferred back to the State. He noted the existing
concession agreement and clarified that this ramp could remain
in operation until the LERA Inc. facility begins operation
again.
Councilwoman Cherveny inquired whether $114,000 had been spent
for a 1°temporary'° launch ramp.
PAGE TSIRTY-SEVEB7 - CITY COUNCIL MINIITES - MAY 25~ 1993
City Attorney Harper explained the conditions under which this
facility could continue to operate, as well as being moved to
other locations. He clarified that the staff report states
that there will be up to $200,000 in revenues transferred to
the City with the lake, from this facility.
City Manager Molendyk noted a study showing that the
concessionaire could not handle enough capacity, and the
original general plan for the lake included an additional ramp
at approximately this location.
City Attorney Harper further clarified that even if the lake
had never transferred, the concessionaire agreement only
prohibits additional 11concessionaires1°, not facilities.
Councilman Alongi questioned the impact of this discussion on
the portion of the transfer agreement which states that the
City will assume the concession agreement. City Attorney
Harper concurred that the City will assume the concession
agreement, however that may not preclude continued operation
at this location. City Manager Molendyk further clarified
that it could not open with another concessionaire, but the
City could operate the additional facility.

38. Discussion of Planning Commission Aapointments. (F:60.2)
Councilman Alongi indicated that this item was not properly
worded, however, his intent was to suggest that this process
be altered to allow each elected official appoint a member to
the Planning Commission. He stressed the importance of the
Council being equally represented on the Planning Commission,
particularly since the Mayor is not directly elected and only
PAGE THIRT%-EIGHT - CITY COLTNCIL MINUTES - MAY 250 1993
holds the ceremonious title. He sugqested that this would
qive more flavor to the Planning Commission.
Mayor Washburn noted that this would suggest a change in the
existing ordinance.
Mayor Pro Tem Dominguez commented that this was informational
only.
Councilman Alongi indicated that he was looking for Council's
approval.
