In the past I had kept in touch with Luann regarding this project and she requested that it be kept in the pending status. Have you had any update at all from the county regarding this project? Given the current budget issues, do you think we should continue to hold it as a pending item? If not, with your permission, we would file it on the shelf with the regular files as a incomplete file. Thanks for your help and advice on this item!

It is really not a budget issue. If and when the County signs the document, it will be fully executed. In the meantime, please hold it in abeyance. Please let me know if you have any questions.

We three OCRP cities have all signed, and it is being held up at the OC Board of Supervisors level. I hope later this year when some Prop 84 money becomes available, it will help in our efforts; however, I have had no indication that is the case. As of this time, we three cities (HB, NB, Costa Mesa) are all in the same boat and waiting... and waiting... As soon as I get some more definite info, I will let you know.

The hold up is with the OC Board of Supervisors, and the Orange Coast River Park committee has been working to try to resolve their issues. As of our last meeting, there has been no resolve. We meet again next week, and if there is any information as to when we may expect their signing of the document, I will let you know.

Due to multiple landowners, both public and private, development of the OCRP will be a long-term challenge and will require a cooperative effort between the local governments and the Friends of Harbors, Beaches and Parks. Toward this end, a Memorandum of Agreement has been prepared identifying each agency's commitment to participate in the creation of the park through cooperative planning by sharing information, seeking grant funding and establishing consistent policies and stewardship protocols for the OCRP. Each agency retains control over its property. As indicated in the Memorandum of Agreement, all agencies involved will have the option to withdraw upon 30 days written notice and any amendments or modifications to the agreement must be achieved through consensus in writing of all involved agencies. The Community Services Commission has reviewed the agreement and at its November 8, 2006, meeting. The agreement was unanimously recommended for submittal to and approval by the City Council. Approval and signatures have been completed by both Costa Mesa and Newport Beach. Approval of this Memorandum of Agreement by Huntington Beach City Council would be necessary at the December 18 meeting in order for approval by the County Board of Supervisors in 2006.
