THE NORTHWESTERLY G_ ,4GE COUNTY COASTAL PROJECTS COG--INATING COMMITTEE f
January 30, 1964
A meeting of the Northwesterly Orange County Coastal Projects Coordinating Com-
mittee was held on Thursday, January 30, 1964 at 2:00 P.M. at Douglas Space Sy-
stems Center in Huntington Beach.
In attendance were approximately 75 representatives from various entities in
the area.
DAVID L. BAKER, Chairman, expressed the appreciation of the Committee and his per-
sonal appreciation to Mr. John Sigrist, Vice President-Director of Operations at
Douglas Space Systems Center, for providing .the fine facilities for the meeting.
Mr. Sigrist welcomed those present and expressed the interest of his company in
the Committee.
MR. BAKER explained the purpose of this meeting was to hear progress reports
from the various subcommittees who had been working very hard during the past
three months in assembling pertinent information.
GEORGE POTTER, Chairman of the Planning and Zoning Subcommittee, reported on the
findings of the subcommittee and presented a very fine map with the information
illustrated.
MR. POTTER called on WILLIS WARNER, Planning Director of Huntington Beach, to
elaborate 'on specific figures signified on the map.. Mr. Warner pointed out that
the projection showed there would be one-half million people in the area with
150,000 families which means 150,000 dwelling units. This is about five times the
population as of this date. He estimated there would be one and a half million
vehicle trips per day, 200,000 jobs, $4,000,000 per day brought home in salaries.
He stressed that these figures were conservative.
MR. POTTER then called on FOREST DICKASON, Acting Planning Director of Orange County.
Mr. Dickason stated this map is a combination of all entities in the area, not just
one. Where do we go from here? Perhaps we need to divide this map into small areas
and develop statistics for any given area on the map. Deficiency areas will become
apparent. Mr. Dickason suggested we may take advantage of the State Division of
Highways computers in arriving at the pertinent data.
RICHARD S. HOLLINGSHEAD, Chairman of the Schools Subcommittee, reported on the
projected school needs of the area, and the problems which may arise.
HAROLD E. NISSEN, Harbors and Waterways Subcommittee Chairman, presented the report
of this subcommittee and called on JIM BALLINGER of the Orange County Harbor District,
to point out some of the aspects of the proposal. Mr. Ballinger explained the poss-
ible locations of breakwaters. He stressed he was not suggesting where they should
be put but was giving some idea as to size. He explained there would be the problem
of breakwaters,' bridges and beach erosion control between Anaheim Bay and Warner Ave.
Any sand traps mean a revision of erosion project by United States Corps of Engin-
eers.
MR. BAKER stressed the importance of coordination and cooperation of staff and know-
ledge of all agencies in this particular area so the outcome will be a practical
approach.

WILLIAM E. FOSTER, Chairman of Water Supply, Conservation and Pollution Sub-
committee, reported on the progress of this subcommittee. He called on CARL
NELSON of the Orange County Flood Control to give the facts of where salt water
intrustion exists and how it gets there. - Mr. Nelson explained salt water intru-
sion through the use of .the map prepared by the Orange County Water District.
He stated there were three major sources of salt water intrusion, and explained
them with a diagram on the blackboard.
GEORGE SHERIDAN; Chairman of the Roads and Traffic Subcommittee, presented the
progress thus far of this subcommittee.
JOHN WILLIAMS, Seal Beach City Manager, asked Mr. Deffebach of the State Division
of Highways when they expected to establish a route for the freeway. Mr. Deffe-
bach stated that the State Division of Highways feels that the northwesterly end of
this area through Seal Beach is the most critical part of the freeway. He stated
they will continue to make a study of this area and come up with a' proposed route
as rapidly as possible. CAPTAIN HALL of the U. S. Navy Weapons Station explained that
that the attitude of the Navy has not changed since July, 1962 when they expressed
their full cooperation on the matter of the freeway and he felt they should not be
considered as a hold up to the program.
MR. WILLIAM HERRON of the United States Corps of Engineers stated that at the re-
quest of Congressman Hanna, they would go to the best sources to develop a study
of salt water intrusion. He stated he was happy to report that there is now about
500 ft. of sand on the beach at Surfside.
CHIP CLEARY, Harbor Commissioner from the 5th District expressed the thought that
the coastline planning should reach through the 5th District.
JOHN SIGRIST explained the reasons Douglas had moved to this area were the recrea-
tion, the housing, the coastline, the schools, etc. They felt there would be a
harbor deep enough for transportation of the Saturn vehicle. He stated they were
most happy to be adjacent to military land. The freeways tie the plants together.
He stated that the things this committee is doing are the same things they were
looking forward to in the future. Their present plans call for building through
the 1970 period.
MR. BAKER stated that more than 15% of the population of California will live with-
in a 40 minute drive of this area. What will we do with the tourist trade when the
freeways are opened? We owe the people who invest their future in this County some-
thing.
MR. BAKER suggested the City Councils consider this plan, and that the Planning
Director present this plan to the County for inclusion in the Master Plan.
It was moved and seconded that the Planning and Zoning Subcommittee and the Roads
and Traffic Subcommittee be merged into one. Motion carried.
It was moved and seconded that the Harbors and Navigation Subcommittee and the Water
Supply, Conservation, and Pollution Subcommittee be merged into one. Motion carried.
TOM WELCH, Councilman of Huntington Beach, moved a Parks and Recreation Subcommittee
be appointed to work with the Planning and Zoning Subcommittee. Motion carried.

DICK RUIZ suggested the merged subcommittees work out their own chairmanships,

It was moved and seconded that the Committee endorse the recommendation of the
Roads and Traffic Subcommittee for an inland freeway route. Motion carried.
MR. BAKER stated he felt there had been an oversight in not appointing an Airport
Study Subcommittee and indicated he would appoint such a subcommittee.
MR. BAKER expressed his personal appreciation for the work done and asked for con-
tinued support of the Committee.
The meeting adjourned at 4:30 P.M.

Members of the Charter Revision Committee
Huntington Beach, California
Attn• Mr. Kenneth Lawson, Chairman
Ladies and Gentlemens
On Friday afternoon I learned that your Committee was inviting
all City officials to appear and present any ideas they may have in
the proposed revision of the City Charter. I have been anticipating
an opportunity to meet with your group for this purposes, as I would
like to present a few ideas for your consideration.
Unfortunately for me, I find that this meeting has been set for
Wednesday, August 4th, and I must be in Berkeley to attend a commit-
tee meeting of the League of California Cities to which I have been
appointed. I therefore request that you give me an opportunity to
meet with you at your next meeting.
There are two items which I feel are of considerable importance
which I would like to discuss with your Committee as you prepare a
rough draft of a new City Charter. One is the method proposed for
selecting a City Clerk. In this, I wish to go on record in stating
that I feel this office should remain elective, and I am aware that
this is not the method proposed in the draft I have read. The City
Clerk covers a multitude of facets in City Government, and under our
i present set-up, he is one of the few full time elected officials to
I which the people can turn when they need assistance. It may be some
matter to do with elections - an inquiry on procedure in applying
for zoning or a building permit - or it may be a problem with a
neighbors dog4 In any case, many citizens and electors turn to the
City Clerk in such matters on the premise that they were responsible
for his election. Although the Clerk may not be able to solve their
problems, he can at least put them in contact with the people who
can.
Further, an elected Clerk, although he must and should cooper-
ate with the Mayor and Council, the City Administrator and the var-
ious heads of departments withingthe City, is responsible directly
to the people who elect him to office. Their are additional fringe
benefits to the;City in,that�his i status�,as an' elected official earns
contacts in various phases of County' and`State government, which are
normally not acquired by city clerks who are appointed. As a results
information from these sources is often more readily available to the
City.
Another item which I feel merits consideration by your Committee
is the possibility of including therein the adoption of a City Elect-
ion Code by reference. This procedure permits the City Council to
adopt and amend by Resolutions election procedures which can be of
benefit to the City which would be compatible and yet more applicable
to our particular situations in relation to the State Election Code.
Such procedure would allow for a change in the method of conducting
the canvass of ballots following an elections as well as other changes
which could be desireable. The City Charter of Los Angeles provides
for this procedures and it appears to have worked very well.
Again let me say that I am sorry to have to miss your meeting on
August 4ths and I trust you will consider my request to appear at a
later date.

REFERRED
Honorable Mayor and City Council RY COUNCIL
City of Huntington Beach
Gentlemen: FEB...2--Q_1%7----------
At the February 6 Council meeting the Administrator was asked to
prepare a report to the Council covering compensation paid to
boards and commissions of the City. We find the following
compensation to be in effect at this time:
Planning Commission
$15 per meeting, maximum three meetings per month
Recreation and Parks Commission
$15 per meeting, maximum one meeting per month
Personnel Board
No compensation
Library Board
No compensation
Urban Land Institute Citizens Steering Committee
No compensation
Architectural Review Board
$15 per meeting, maximum three meetings per month
Honorable Mayor and City Council February 17, 1967

It seems unlikely that the City can, at this time, establish a
policy of compensation for- all commissions, boards and committees
who are assisting in advisory capacities. The specific inquiry
at the last Council meeting was for payment for the Urban Land
Institute Citizens Steering Committee . I do not feel it would
be fair and equitable to pay this committee without also
considering the Personnel Board and Library Board .

AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITY WOMEN
Huntington Beach, California
December 21, 1970
The Honorable Donald L. Shipley
Mayor of Huntington Beach
City Hail
Huntington Beach, California 92648
Dear Dr. Shipley,
As you may be aware, a group of civic-minded citizens have been
meeting periodically under the leadership of the American Association
of University Women to study the Human Use of Urban Space. Perio-
dically in the discussions the tax base which supports our civic
activities has been discussed. We have realized that, as in most
suburban areas, the residential development has outstripped the
commercial-industrial development to an extent that the cost for
even the minimal services required by the citizens is excessive
to the homeowner.
We would like to propose a direction which may well help alleviate
some of the problem. We propose that an I.ndustrial Development
Commission be installed under the City Charter in much the same
way that the commissions are already instituted.
The charge of the commission would be to advise and propose plans
to the Council for the attraction of industrial and commercial
enterprises and their subsequent developers, to the city. They
would work with your present industrial coordinator to develop
formal presentations which -would be made to major and minor in-
dustrial concerns all over the country. For example, vie suspect
that if the presentation which was made for the All-American City
Contest were made before a major industrial firm, we might well
have a new tenant in our city.
Of course the Commission members would be. selected by the City
Council in the usual fashion. We would urge that consideration
-be given to residents who already work for major corporations who
may be involved in various facets of site selection for their
.firms. We believe we should make good use of such human resources.
We would appreciate your consideration of this matter and would be
more than happy to discuss it further at a future City Council
meeting.
Very truly yours,

Civic Center Mall,City of Inglewood, California HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA
Civic Center Plaza,City of Huntington Beach,California BY THE HUNTINGTON BEACH COMPANY
Jack Zajac reached into his bag of artistic twists and
turns at the request of the city of Huntington Beach
and the Huntington Beach Company and has produced
a soar or bronze sculpture sure to he the 3a k of t.e
town.
In place -3-vi :;~ tl_e Plaza Of tl>e llur ng�=_ Rezc'r.
Civic Center, the 12-foot ;entitled work- contrasts
strongly with the angular, light colored, smooth
concrete walls of the Kurt-Meyer-designed civic
center.
It represents in its curves and rough texture the
artist's desire to soften the effect of tall buildings,
yet it carries with it an angularity of its own which
-� mimics its surroundings so not to leave it completely
foreign to its locations.
Zajac says that "it was my intention to create a
sculpture that has within some lyricism and grace, a
shape which moves the eye upward, but at the same
time has the ability to hold interest against the broad
space of the plaza."
A painter turned sculptor, Zajac has in his 47 years
V attracted and held the attention of the world of the
arts with tortured struggles of bound goats, the
yearning and tensions of mankind in portrayals of
man and his relationship with his work and his gods,
V the serenity of nature expressed in barely perceptible
- movements in solid forms, or the grace of more
movement in a world fixed in bronze, marble or
fiberglass.
Though the scale differs, the Huntington Beach work
is reminiscent of the soaring grandeur of works much
smaller such as the swans of a decade ago.
Zajac began this work in Santa Cruz early in 1975
and went to Rome, Italy, to work intermitently for
some eight months at the Cavallari foundry.
It was cast in bronze in Rome in July, 1976,and set
on the plaza in February 1977.
