stating his opinion that it is not appropriate to replace one historical family's name with another for any of
the City's parks. He also acknowledged that Frank L. Ciarelli and Delbert "Bud" Higgins are deserving of
being recognized for their own historical contributions to the City, and made a motion to retain each park
as currently named (Lamb, Arevalos and Wardlow), and find alternate locations to honor aforementioned
individuals (Ciarelli and Higgins).
Councilmember Peterson concurred with Councilmember O'Connell's objection to renaming historically
recognized parks, but explained that staff's recommended action does not include changing the Arevalos
Park name. He made a substitute motion to retain each park as currently named (Arevalos, Wardlow,
and new park at the former Lamb School site), and have the CSC reconsider alternate park locations to
honor Frank L. Ciarelli and Delbert "Bud" Higgins. Councilmember Delgleize seconded the motion.

to allow for the new park at Lamb School to be named William and Elizabeth Lamb Park. In addition, she
provided support for the CSC to also consider unnamed structures to honor deserving individuals.
Councilmember Posey expressed his opinion that history should not be re -written by renaming parks and

Mayor Pro Tern Sullivan expressed his support for Councilmember Peterson's motion as expanded by
Councilmember Hardy to think about more than just park space as a way to honor individuals.
Mayor Katapodis expressed his support for not changing any historical family park names and thanked
Mary Urashima for sharing her research, and all of the various family members who spoke up and

would not be supporting the item.

Council/PFA and Special Meeting of the Housing Authority
October 17, 2016
Page 9 of 14
Councilmembers Delgleize and O'Connell shared their observations that three years ago there were
twenty-six transitional housing programs in Orange County, and today there are none which has resulted
in more homelessness in Huntington Beach. Deputy Director of Economic Development Kellee Fritzal
clarified that the City of Huntington Beach does not have to look at AFFH until 2019/2020. There was
further discussion between Councilmember Delgleize and Director Fritzal confirming that for projects
currently under the Assets For Independence (AFI), the City is not relinquishing any rights or local
control.
Councilmember Hardy expressed that since the City is not yet subject to federal oversight for these
projects, it is her recommendation to move ahead. There will be time to evaluate the influence that the
federal government may be trying to exercise in 2019/2020.
Councilmember O'Connell and Director Fritzal discussed that by using federal and city funds for this
project, the city does retain control over maintenance and management of the project; unlike some other
projects where the city doesn't have any control.
Mayor Pro Tem Sullivan voiced his agreement with statements made by Councilmembers O'Connell and
Delgleize that there is an obligation to assist the homeless; however, the fact that the federal government
has the power and ability to remove local control if they so choose, he cannot support this item.
Councilmember Delgleize, Councilmember O'Connell and Director Fritzal further clarified that even if the
city foregoes Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funds in 201912020, there are city covenants on
these projects that mandate the properties be properly maintained for the next 55 years.
Mayor Katapodis reiterated his opinion that he also does not trust the federal government to make local
decisions, but that it is in the City's best interests to approve this item and re -visit the continued use of
federal funds in 2019.
A substitute motion was made by Hardy, second Delgleize to adopt Housing Authority Resolution No. 05,
"Resolution of the Housing Authority of the City of Huntington Beach Approving an Affordable Housing
Agreement With Orange County Community Housing Corporation;" and, adopt City Council Resolution
No. 2016-70 "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Approving a HOME
Affordable Housing Agreement Between the City and Orange County Community Housing Corporation;"
and, approve the appropriation of $218,780 in account 35280301.89250 for the acquisition and
rehabilitation of 7792 Barton Drive; and, approve the transfer of grant appropriations of $44,986 from
