A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
HUNTINGTON BEACH REQUESTING THE ORANGE COUNTY
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO CONSIDER SPECIFIC ISSUES
RELATING TO THE BOLSA CHICA LINEAR PARK BOUNDARY
STUDY
WHEREAS, a significant portion of the Bolsa Chica Linear
Regional Park is located in the city of Huntington Beach; and
By means of park dedication, the city has acquired
23. 7 acres within the proposed park boundary; and
The City of Huntington Beach, in a spirit of cooperation,
has been working with the County of Orange to address issues of
concern to the city regarding the Bolsa Chica Linear Park
Boundary Study; and
The linear park will link Huntington Central Park with the
Bolsa Chica,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the
City of Huntington Beach that it hereby requests the Board of
Supervisors of the County of Orange to consider the following
points relative to Bolsa Chica Linear Park Boundary Study:
1. That the County of Orange has allocated $2 million for
acquisition and development which is being held pending action
on the Bolsa Chica Land Use Plan by the California Coastal
Commission. The city has acquired 23.7 acres through park
dedication, and recommends that the county actively pursue
acquisition of real property within the park boundary.
2. That the City of Huntington Beach is assured that the
County of Orange has irrevocably allotted $2 million for
acquisition and development of Bolsa chica Linear Regional Park.
3. That the City of Huntington Beach may not be able to
acquire all of the parkland by dedication. In some instances
1.
outright purchase will be required. Therefore, funding sources
must be preserved.
4. That particular attention be directed to the amount of
park acreage to be designated and designed as environmentally
sensitive areas (ESHA) so that such areas will not inhibit
development and use of the linear park. It is recommended that
such passive areas be located solely within the county' s juris-
diction and designed as an asset to the park system, and that
any parkland within the city' s boundary which might be desig-
nated as an environmentally sensitive area be purchased by the
County of Orange.
