a Room B-8, Civic Center Huntington Beach, California Monday, September 19, 1977 6:00 P.M. A tape recording of this meeting is on file in the City Clerk's Office JOINT MEETING WITH THE RECREATION & PARKS COMMISSION REGARDING MASTER CONCESSIONAIRE AT HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK Roll Call - City Council Present: Bartlett, Wieder, Coen, Gibbs, Shenkman, Pattinson (Councilman Siebert arrived at 6:15 P.M.) Absent: None Roll Call - Recreation & Parks Commission Present: Tam Cooper, Chairman; Joe Costa, Westminster School District; Betty Kennedy; Lee Mossteller; Bill Osness; Charles Osterlund, Ocean View School District; Norma Vander Molen, Huntington Beach City School District. Absent: Raul Duarte, Coast Community College District, and Don Mac Allister, Huntington Beach Union High School District. Mayor Pattinson called to order the joint adjourned regular meeting of the City Council and the Recreation and Parks Commission. A brief history of the Huntington Central Park was presented by Commission Chairman Tom Cooper, including the recommendations from 1968 to the present time of both the City Council and the Recreation and Parks Commission. Norm Worthy, Commission Secretary, discussed the current status of Huntington Central Park, including acquisition, facilities and development, Phase II and interim uses of Phase III - Trails. Maps and a contour of the area were shown. Chairman Tom Cooper discussed factors affecting the development and progress of Huntington Central Park, in particular the Master Concessionaire Lease and Talbert Lake. He elaborated on the goals of the Recreation and Parks Cone fission. Mr. Cooper emphasized the need for direction from Council at this time, presenting the following alternatives: a) Consider Prentice Taylor the Master Concessionaire of the existing park and future acquisitions up to at least 400 acres, as was described in the original solicitation to bid for concession rights; b) City develop recreational activities on property outside of the leased premises; c) City buy out the Master Concessionaire's equity in Huntington Central Park, and; Page # 2 - Council Minutes - 9/19/77 d) City lease recreational facility development to developers other than the Master Concessionaire outside of the leased premises described in the current lease. Councilman Shenkman stated that a concise interpretation of the "rights" of the Master Concessionaire should be established before any direction be given. He further stated that Council had had some different interpretations as to just what those rights were. Mayor Pattinson stated that he agreed with Councilman Shenkman to some extent, but believed Council should establish whether or not a Master Concessionaire was de- sirable. In his opinion, the City should not have a Master Concessionare for Hunt- ington Central Park, and he believed that there were ways in which Council could operate, should they too decide against the Master Concessionaire. Councilman Shenkman expressed concern as to.what exactly the City's obligations were regarding the Master Concessionaire. He stated that he was not prepared to vote on whether a Master Concessionaire was desirable at this time but would wel- come staff's recommendations in the near future on the matter. He further stated that he believed Council should be given information as to the advantages and dis- advantages of having a Master Concessionaire in the park and the alternatives, without which he felt direction could not be given. Councilman Coen stated that he believed Council had never been given the oppor- tunity to view the alternatives, and further, that there was a legitimate issue raised by the parties as to whether or not Mr. Prentice Taylor has the rights to go beyond the scope of his immediate boundaries. In his opinion, the issue would never be resolved, but this should not prevent Council from determining whether or not a Master Concessionaire was desirable. He believed that should a Master Concessionaire be desirable, it would be a question of establishing whether or not Mr. Taylor should be entrusted with the responsibility, and if not, what could be done about it. He suggested that the Liaison Committee should have discussed the issue, to which Councilman Siebert replied that it had at great length. Mayor Pattinson stated that he had discussed the matter with Mr. Taylor, who took the attitude that, should the City not desire his services as a Master Concessionaire, as in any business they should make him an offer. Councilwoman Wieder stated that she would like some input as to why a Master Con- cessionaire was established in the park in the first place, and what the thinking of Council and the Recreation and Parks Commission was at that time. She believed the question should be raised as to whether the Master Concessionaire had served the best interests of the City, before a decision could be made on how much more should be done, or not done. Councilman Siebert stated that it was his understanding, from the meetings he had attended, that the original reason for taking a Master Concessionaire was that Council looked into other concessions which they had in the City at the time, con- sisting of those at the pier where a number of individual concessionaires existed. The feeling was that the City could avoid the situation of dealing with eight or ten individual parties in one area, as at the pier. Also, he stated, there was not a Contract Administrator in the City at that time. Councilwoman Gibbs stated that the idea of having one Master Concessionaire was very appealing to Council at that time; that he would take some of the burden from the City. Page #3 - Council Minutes - 9/19/77 Councilwoman Wieder inquired as to Master Concessionaires in other cities and dis- cussion was held on the matter. She inquired whether the Master Concessionaire was going to be able to promote and develop activity in the park, to which the Commission Secretary replied that anything which was money -making proposition could be promoted by the Master Concessionaire. The Commission Secretary stated that the efforts of the Master Concessionaire were stymied by the initial concessions which were put in; the park was envisioned to be larger and have other activities added, including (within 5 years) a restaurant. However, he stated that a restaurant cannot materialize until some support is given to the restaurant, such as tennis courts, golf course, etc. Councilwoman Wieder stated that she believed Council should pursue ending the con- tractual agreement with the Master Concessionaire, in whatever form was necessary. She inquired as to the legal constraints which would prevent such action. Councilman Coen stated that he did not agree with Councilwoman Wieder; he did not believe the City had created a monopoly which stymied development, and gave reasons for his opinion. He did not believe that the failure of the operation had been due to Mr. Taylor either. Councilman Bartlett gave input on the concessions along the beach and stated his belief that the City had a very successful system in this area, giving reasons for his opinion. Councilman Siebert stated that the Recreation & Parks Commission had already given Council some alternatives; that the matter had been bounced around at great length and Council should make some determination -at this time as to what area to pursue. He stated that it was difficult to determine what the problem was with the concession, whether a lack of attendance resulted in the closed concession, or whether the closed concession had resulted in a lack of attendance. Councilwoman Wieder stated that it was her understanding that the City Attorney had given a ruling at one time regarding the legalities of the matter, which ruling she would like to have re -stated, together with recommendations from the liaison committee as to which alternatives they would recommend. It was determined that the Recreation & Parks Commission had made recommendations in the past which would incorporate (a) some changes to clear up problems in the lease, as a result of which the City Attorney then recommended, without considering the recommendations of the Commission, that the use of the term "Leased Premises" is the only area in which something could be done. Discussion was held between Council and the Commission regarding alternatives (a) and (b). Commissioner Osterlund emphasized the importance of Council giving some direction in order to stimulate action at the present time. He reviewed the situation and what had transpired to date and inquired as to what degree of support or amount of money the City would be willing to put into Central Park for non-commercial dev- elopment. Following discussion, Commissioner Osterlund stated that he personally was in favor of keeping the Master Concessionaire. Councilwoman Wieder inquired at this time whether any input had been given by the public regarding the matter. A motion was made by Wieder, seconded by Gibbs, to approve alternative (a) heretofore listed, renegotiate the lease, and in addition give the Master Concessionaire specific goals and directions; support goals with a time frame to achieve same and report to Council: AYES: Weider, Coen, Gibbs . NOES: Bartlett, Siebert, Shenkman, Pattinson ABSENT: None t ' ,.:: akl Page #4 - Council Minutes - 9/19/77 The motion failed. A motion was made by Pattinson to combine Items (c) and (d), heretofore listed. The motion died for lack of a second. Councilman Siebert stated that he had a problem with the motion because of the 400 acres. Upon inquiry, it was determined that the 400 acres included Phase III. Councilman Siebert stated that he was in favor of a motion, on the previous motion, limited to Phase I and Phase II only. Further discussion followed. A motion was made by Siebert, seconded by Shenkman, that Council consider Prentice Taylor the Master Concessionaire of the existing park on up to Phase I, Phase II and Phase IIa, as described in the original solicitation to bid for concession rights. Councilwoman Wieder inquired whether if Council adopted the motion as stated, that the limitation to the Master Concessionaire's jurisdiction over just this area would encumber the Master Plan for Phase III, and was informed that it would be "left in limbo". The Commission Secretary further stated that the City could be- come involved in litigation because Mr. Taylor has expressed the feeling that he bought the rights to Phase III when he won the bid for the Master Concessionaire rights. Councilwoman Wieder asked Councilman Siebert if he would object if Council put in the motion a time certain to implement the matter. Further discussion ensued re- garding the acreage involved in Phase I, Phase II and Phase IIa and the elimination of Phase III. Following discussion, Councilman Siebert withdrew his motion and Councilman Shenkman withdrew his second. Mayor Pattinson called for a roll call vote on the original motion, as follows: "A motion was made by Wieder, seconded by Gibbs, to approve alternative (a) here- tofore listed, renegotiate the lease, and in addition give the Master Concession- aire specific goals and directions; support goals with a time frame to achieve same and report to Council." AYES: Wieder, Coen, Gibbs, Shenkman NOES: Bartlett, Siebert, Pattinson ABSENT: None Motion carried Mayor Pattinson directed Council to fill out their preference sheets for Huntington Central Park indicating their choices by crossing out those items which they do not desire. He stated that another meeting would be held as soon as possible between Council and the Recreation and Parks Commission, when further input was available. Mayor Pattinson thanked the Recreation and Parks Commission for the work and efforts they had put into the Central Park projects. Councilwoman Gibbs stressed that a time factor be involved in making a decision, suggesting April of 1978. Councilman Siebert suggested that the Recreation & Parks Commission utilize the water bill in assembling input from the general public on the matter (as had been done by the Environmental Council in their noise studies and to which a tremendous response was given). 45 -4 Page #5 - Council Minutes - 9/19/77 ATI.TOTTRS W.MT Mayor Pattinson declared the adjourned regular meeting between Council and the Recreation & Parks Commission of the City of Huntington Beach adjourned.

Mrs. Collins stated that it had since come to her attention that signatures and petitions are being obtained on a "world-wide" basis, from pilots and operators of planes. Cal 'Trans, she claimed, maintains that there is no night flying at Meadowlark Airport, when, in fact, there is. Ben Borcoman, City, addressed Council and read part of a report from the Charter Revision Committee's findings.

Ickes, City, addressed Council regarding an informal petition which he had submitted asking that Council request the Fountain Valley School Board and the City Recreation and Parks Commission to relocate Little League facility for next year's season and that the City delay construction of restrooms and concession stands on this field. He stated that he believed the rights and privacy of homeowners in the area were being invaded, pointing out that approximately 71 names had been obtained on the petition. He cited reasons for the complaint and expressed concern regarding the proposed concession facility for the Wardlow Park. Page #4 - Council Minutes - 9/19/77 Mayor Pattinson directed the City Administrator to meet with Mr. Ickes and it was determined that the next meeting of the Recreation & Parks Commission would be Wednesday, October 12, 1977 at 7:30 P.M. at City Hall. James De Gueile, City, stated that he had appeared before Council several months ago regarding the City tax base. He stated he was of the opinion that the largest tax base in the City of Huntington Beach is being neglected; the potential annex- ation of the Bolsa Chica flatlands, as recommended by staff. Mr. De Guelle stated that he believed that if the tax base were presented to the general public, they would be in favor of total annexation of the Bolsa Chica flatlands and proposed that the matter be put on the election ballot in April in order that the tax -payers could make a decision on the matter at that time. L- J._J. Emme, City, and member of the Huntington/Valley Board of Directors - Little League, addressed Council and spoke in opposition to the petition protesting the use of Wardlow Park as a Little League facility.

He gave reasons why he was in favor of the park facil- ity and stated that the League had moved three times since 1966.

Art Waybourne, City, addressed Council and inquired as to how long the City would tolerate"Social Darwinism" in the Planning Department. He stated that for the past five years he had been trying to obtain a permit to build on his lot located in the area of Edwards Street and Ellis Avenue. Mr. Waybourne stated further that he believed that the Planning Department had responded inadequately to his questions as to the best utilization of his lot. Discussion was held between Council and staff, following which Mayor Pattinson directed the Planning Director to meet with Mr. Waybourne to discuss the matter. Ben Cantor, City, and tenant of one of the existing shopping centers at Warner Avenue/Goldenwest Street, addressed Council in opposition to the proposed Warner/ Goldenwest Redevelopment Project. Mr. Cantor inquired as to whether the ordinance pertaining to the Warner/Goldenwest Redevelopment project could be repealed. He stated that he would like more time to ponder the matter and that during the interim, a decision be held in abeyance. Discussion was held between Council and staff as to the method of repealing an ordinance. Councilwoman Gibbs stated that she ws opposed to the proposed facility being built in the area. Ellis Norvechen, part owner of the shopping center across the street from the proposed Warner/Goldenwest Redevelopment Project addressed Council and spoke in opposition to the proposed redevelopment. He stated the hardships on tenants in the area over the past few years with the ever-increasing development of shopping 1 Page #5 - Council Minutes - 9/19/77 centers, citing several examples. Mr. Norvechen stated that at present, there are eleven large shopping centers and several smaller ones in the area, within a radius of 1k miles, and reminded Council that Dr. Margaret Stark, had written them in February giving reasons why there should not be another shopping center built in the area. Discussion was held by Council on the matter. Don Jones, City, stated that he had interests in common with the previous speakers. Se further stated that he was unaware of the proposed shopping center, as were his tenants, and in his opinion, the system of notification was ineffective, since ano one was informed of zone changes in the area which he claimed had been made in December of 1976. Mr. Jones stated that he had commissioned Terranics of Los Angeles to do a research of the area. Councilwoman Wieder inquired of the Planning Director if it were a fact that no notifications were sent to tenants in the area and was informed that the area had been commercialized for many years.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION IN COUNCIL DELIBERATIONS Councilman Siebert expressed dissatisfaction with the matter of public partici- pation in Council deliberations and his dissatisfaction of the method by which citizens are informed of items to be discussed at adjourned Council meetings. Councilman Siebert stated that in his opinion there seemed to be ambiguity in the Charter, when, in fact, it states that at regular meetings citizens shall have the right to speak. Councilman Siebert stated that he was concerned inasmuch as since it was an adjourned meeting from a previous meeting and the items do not appear on the agenda it would be impossible for citizens to speak on items that appear on the adjourned meeting work sheet. Councilman Siebert stated that he had contacted the City Attorney and the City Clerk about the matter and that the City Clerk had agreed that there was some ambiguity, but it had been set by precedent. Councilman Siebert reiterated the reasons why he felt this situation to be unsatisfactory, and urged Council to work with the City Administrator, City Attorney, and City Clerk to develop an alternative solution to enable Council to respond to the situation which would allow public participation at adjourned regular meetings.

Page # 13 - Council Minutes - 9/19/77 CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE - BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS Councilman Siebert stated his concern regarding Conflict of Interest Codes as they pertain to various City boards and commissions.

In "Categories of Disclosure", there are two categories; (1) total full disclosure upon submission, and (2) disclosure when there is a conflict (a lesser degree of disclosure). Councilman Siebert stated that some boards and commissions can take autonomous action, apart from the City Council, and some are only advisory to the City Council, e.g; the Planning Commission can take final action but the Environmental Council is strictly advisory and can take no final action. On motion by Siebert, second Coen, Council directed that those boards and commissions which do not have final decision -making power above that of the City Council, be allowed to be put into Category 2, and that those boards and commissions who can take autonomous action be allowed to stay in Category 1.
