" COUNCIL ADMINISTRATOR COMMUNICATION HUNTINGTON BEACH To Honorable Mayor and From Floyd G. Belsito , City Council Members ��� Acting City Administrator Subject RESOLUTION #4253 _ Date _Jun-e 1 , 1976 HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK Resolution No. 4253 relates to an application to the Department of Housing and Urban Development for authorization to transfer funds allocated for acquisition and relocation to development of open space land in Huntington Central Park. The City of Huntington Beach has been the recipient of $2 , 510 , 056 from the- Department of Housing and Urban Development for acquisition and development of Huntington Central Park. This total reflects five indi- vidual grants approved by HUD for acquisition, development and reloca=_ tion. With the completion of acquisition and first phase development in Huntington Central Park, there still remains approximately $143 , 770. 38 remaining in the project account that the 'City of Huntington Beach could utilize. These funds are reflected as $13D ; 316. 38 in acquisition and $4 , 454 in relocation costs . Upon investigation with the HUD representative, it has been tentatively agreed upon that the City of Huntington Beach submit an amendatory grant to HUD requesting the transfer of funds for acquisition and relocation in o-a development account . In this manner, we would be able to be reimbursed approximately $143, 770 . 38 for development costs programmed for the 1977 Fiscal Year in Huntington. Central Park. I have discussed this approach with Mr. Norm Worthy, Recreation and Parks and.-°Human Services Director, in order to determine the anticipated expenditures in Huntington Central Park for Fiscal Year 1977 . He indi- cates to me that sufficient projects can be identified that would war- rant reimbursement of 50% of the costs by HUD. RECOMMENDATION Approve Resolution No. 4253 and direct'..the­.Mayor to execute the amendatory application to HUD.

Belsito, City Council Members City Administrator Subject HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK Date October 29 , 1976 TENNIS FACILITY At the October 6th City Council meeting, a tennis facility for Huntington Central Park was approved in concept and staff was di- rected to look into the feasibility of establishing such a facility. A meeting was held on October 14th with Prentice Taylor and a rep- resentative of Tennis Concepts who are to submit a proposal to the City by December 6th . Tennis Concepts had already submitted a proposed lease agreement prior to the October 6th Council meeting, but on October 14th they were requested to work on a new proposal since the first one was unacceptable to the City Atto7 ,-y, City Treasurer, Contracts Admin- istrator and other staff who reviewed it. Before any tennis proposal for Central Park can be approved, a number of difficulties will have to be resolved: 1 . Does Mr. Taylor have first right to establish recreational facil- ities in the areas of Central Park not defined as demised premises in the Master Concessionaire Lease? 2 . If Mr. Taylor does have such a right, then can he exercise it by bringing in a third party such as Tennis Concepts or must he establish the facility himself? 3. In light of the facts that the Master Concessionaire Lease requires that the City receive 9 of all gross receipts and that Mr. Taylor and Tennis Concepts have both indicated this criteria cannot be met by them, can and should the City enter an agreement on a less than 9% return basis? 4 . Would a Tennis Concepts facility meet the accessibility requirements imposed by HUD. Mac Hopkins of that federal agency has indicated that any proposal for a facility iii that .K for which there is a charge should be reviewed by HUD. Mr. Hopkins has also indicated that he will try to work with the City to help come up with an allowable arrangement . Finally, the Council after receiving a proposal from Tennis Concepts and Mr. Taylor will have the right to reject the proposal and advertise for bids from other vend-rs„ Unless the Tennis Concepts proposal is so good that it appears unbeatable, review of bids from other vendors would seem advisable. ;Res ectfully submitted, Floy G.

COHO CITY ADMINISTRATOR ADMINISTRATIVE NALYST, SR. Subject RECREATION FACILITIES IN Date OCTOBER 19 , 1976 CENTRAL PARK A number of matters relating to the establishment of recreational facili- ties in Central Park have been raised in the past few weeks as a result of proposals by the City' s Master Concessionaire and others to build skateboard and tennis facilities in the park. At issue are the questions of whom the City should be dealing with in developing the facilities , what procedure should be followed in selecting a vendor, what facilities should be planned for the future, and whether such facilities will. meet the restrictions imposed by HUD as a result of grant money being used to purchase park land. The City, of course , has a Master Concession Lease Agreement with Prentice Taylor . The reason for a master concessionaire arrangement is to have a single party responsible for attracting, establishing, and overseeing the vendors in the park. In describing the area of the park covered by the Master Concessionaire Lease , the agreement refers to "demised premises" which are shown on an exhibit to be three small areas only: the sites of Huck' s Hangout , Tom' s Place, and a future restaurant site . However , a City Attorney' s opinion in discussing what parts of the park are covered by the lease states ,. "It appears —that lessee has the first right with regard to concessions of recreational activity in Huntington Central Park. " This opinion is certainly in keeping with the master concessionaire concept . The opinion goes on to exclude from the demised premises the lands acquired after the signing of the lease in December, 1972 . The agreement also stipulates that the City is to receive 9 percent of all gross sales under $150, 000 from charges in the park. Recently, Mr. Taylor has proposed the establishment of a skateboard park and a tennis facility. These activities would be operated by third parties who would sub-lease from Mr . Taylor. Neither operator, according to Mr. Taylor , would yield the City 9 percent of gross receipts . According to the agreement , the procedure for selecting a. vendor is : 1 . The City notifies the Master Concessionaire that it desires to have a certain recreational activity in the park. 2 . The Concessionaire has 60 days in which to submit proposals for the activities including plans and schedules of charges and rates . 3 . The City may accept , modify, or reject the Concessionaire ' s proposal . I A RECREATION FACILITIES IN CENTRAL PARK October 19 , 1976 Page 2 4 . If the City rejects the proposal , then it may solicit offers from other vendors to establish the desired facility and select one . 5 . The Concessionaire then has the right within five days- to equal the terms and conditions of the selected vendor. In the present situation, Mr . Taylor , not the City, has proposed the activities . Nonetheless , upon approving the activities in concept and so notifying Mr. Taylor, the City would initiate the above outlined pro- cedure. As long as the facilities are to be established in parts of the park acquired before December, 1972 , Mr. Taylor appears to have a first right . Since the Master Concessionaire has already stated that neither activity will yield the City 9 percent of gross receipts , the City may very well wish to consider other offers . After receiving Mr . Taylor' s proposal from Tennis Concepts Incorporated, City Council on October 6 directed staff to study the feasibility of establishing a tennis facility. Inasmuch as the written agreement sub- mitted by Tennis Concepts was clearly unacceptable to representatives of the City Attorney' s office , as well as the City Treasurer and the Contracts Administrator, I have requested Tennis Concepts to redraft their proposal and meet further with staff. The proposal could then be formally sub- mitted by Mr . Taylor in response to the City' s requesting the establishment of a tennis facility. Another proposal, including charges and rates of return, is being prepared by Mr . Taylor regarding the skateboard facility. The City has already been approached by another party interested in building a skateboard facility in or near Central Park. Howard Subnick has proposed to build such a facility on the west side of Goldenwest south of the park on a City-owned parcel in an area sometimes called third phase. If the City were to lease the property to Mr. Subnick and also select a vendor in the park proper , the two facilities would of course be in competition for a limited clientele . Expressing a desire for a skateboard facility in Central Park would put the City into step one of the selection pro- cedure : and allow the City to consider first Mr. Taylors and then any other offers . In order to proceed in the orderly development of recreational facilities in the park, the City should take the lead in initiating the selection procedure for desired activities . To date, most of the ideas have come from the Concessionaire. The City should also determine whether or not a third phase of Central Park is desirable. Then, a master plan should be developed for establishing the desired facilities . Finally, Mac .: Hopkins of HUD has indicated that rate schedules for all facilities should be reviewed by HUD to insure that restrictions are met as to the accessibility of the park to all income groups . RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve- in concept the establishment_ of_ tennis--:and-skateboard facili- ties in. Central. Park an& `so notify Mr Taylor. RECREATION FACILITIES IN CENTRAL PARK October 19, 1976 Page 3 2 . Request City Council to have a joint meeting with the Recreation and Parks Commission at which a. Council will decide whether or not to develop additional Central Park lands . b.

Staff (Administration, Public Works and Recreation and Parks) had submitted a .list of recommended projects , some encumbered from prior years, some budgeted for this fiscal year, some new proposals and some alternate projects . The Recreation and Parks Commission upon motion by Mr. Don MacAllister and second by Mr. Charles Osterlund, approved the list submitted by staff with the exception of the proposal to landscape Talbert Avenue from Golden West to Gothard . in which they recommended the landscaping of the remaining 5 acres on the west side of Golden West from the Nature Center to Talbert Avenue extended. Their rationale concerning the change was that Golden West on the west side should be completed to compliment the proposed tennis facility and. to provide additional parking near the Nature Center and that until more definite information is avail- able regarding future uses of the S-E corner of Golden West and Talbert .

Belsito, City Council Members City Administrator Subject CENTRAL PARK PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE Date October 28 , 1976 v' I In a recent discussion with Mac Hopkins of HUD .concerning $143 , 700 in remaining HUD funks available to the City for Central Park devel- opment, Mr. Hopkins indicated to me that the money should be used very soon to avoid the possibility that OMB may- withdraw the allo- cation. In June, the Recreation and Parks Commission recommended that the money be applied to construction of a pedestrian tunnel under Goldenwest Street to provide passage for pedestrians . Subsequent reports , copies attached, from Public Works Director Bill Hartge and Captain Mike Burkehfield of the Police Department indicate that from safety and financial points of view, a bridge is preferable to a tunnel . The Recreation and Parks Commission, , noting that the location of such a bridge could conflict with Park plans and the realignment of Talbert, recommended on September 30th that no bridge be built and- that the $143, 700 instead be used for further park -acquisition. The- $143, 700 was originally allocated for acquisition and upon request of the City, transferred to development funding. To re- quest another transfer at this time would not only cause further delay in use of the funds , but might also cause concern within HUD as to the City' s need and ability to use the money. Furthermore , I have discussed the matter of Talbert alignment with Mr. Hartge and been assured that a bridge could be built within 200 feet of the present intersection without causing conflict with any proposed future alignment. City acquisition and development funds could be used to match the HUD money thus providing up to $287 ,400 in construction funds for a bridge-- enough to build a facility that would not only carry pedestrians but maintenance vehicles as well . Immediate use of the funds would insure that the allocation will not be lost. RECOMMENDATION Authorize the Director of- Public Works to prepare plans and specifi- cations for the design and construction of a pedestrian-maintenance vehicle bridge across Goldenwest Street at a cost of about $280 , 000 including architectural fees of approximately 20-25% .

The committee and staff have investigated similar facilities to those re- commended in La Habra and Anaheim. The La Habra tennis facility has been open for 2 months and the Anaheim skateboard facility is under construction. Mr. Prentice Taylor, Principal Owner of the H.C.P. Concession Co. and his proposed sub-leasees, Mr. Robert Waunch and Mr. Tom Connel of Tennis Concepts, Inc. and Mr. Henry Reiter with the Skate- board Facility were pyesent and answered all questions to the satisfac- tion of the Commission MOTION: Mr. Don MacAllister moved the Recreation and Parks Commission' approve Tennis Concepts, Inc. proposal under the auspices of the Huntington Central Park Concession Co. to construct a 12-court public tennis complex to include a clubhouse/pro shop and required off-street parking in the 10 acre undeveloped area of H.C.P. between Matney Mesa, McCracken Meadow, Golden West Street, and Talbert Street extended on the west side of Golden West Street.

Belsito, City Administrator From Recreation & Parks Commission Subject H.C.P. BRIDGE/TUNNEL/OTHER Date September 30, 1976 The Recreation and Parks Commission met last night in special session and reviewed the H.C.P. Committee's recommendation regarding the need for a bridge, tunnel, or signalized intersection at Talbert and Golden West to provide for a safe pedestrian crossing. The committee felt, after review- ing several alternative plans and an on-site inspection, that it would be difficult to recommend that either a bridge or tunnel be constructed across Golden West Street at this time since the existing tee intersection of Talbert into Golden West is a temporary roadway to provide access to the Library. Since the official adoption route of Talbert Avenue west of Gothard is a southerly curved alignment which intersects with Golden West near Taylor Street, construction of this street could drastically change the conceptual plans of the remaining undeveloped park property south of the -Library to the Mushroom Farm. The Commission felt that Administration and Public Works should address the issue of a permanent intersection of Talbert and Golden West before a bridge or a tunnel could be constructed.., Other determining factors might include the type of recreational facilities that will ulti- mately be appro»ed for development on both the east and west sides of Golden West. MOTION: Mr. Don MacAllister moved the Recreation and Parks Commission recommend to the City Administrator that a pedestrian signal be installed instead of constructing either a bridge or a tunnel across Golden West Street in Huntington Central Park and that the remaining H.U.D. funds be used instead to acquire the remaining five acres of phase III property fronting on Taylor Drive between Golden West and Edwards Streets.

Belsito From H. E. Hartge City Administrator Subject Crossing of Goldenwest St. Date August 30 , 1976 at Central City Park A final .decision must be made as to whether a bridge or a tunnel will be constructed to provide a means of pedestrian crossing of Goldenwest Street. The tunnel is estimated to . cost $200 ,000, whereas a bridge for pedestrians only would cost $125 ,000 , and one to allow for maintenance vehicles would cost $225 , 000. 00. The aforementioned figures vary somewhat from those in my memo to Norm. These figures are more up to date and can be safely used for estimating purposes . If the decision were to be made strictly on the basis of cost, the ped bridge would be selected. In addition to the cost .the matter of safety to the people using the crossing must be taken into consideration. I recommend that a pedestrian bridge be selected. It is noted that the Recreation and Parks Commission recommended that the issue be reviewed by you, me, Earl Robitaille and Norm 'Worthy, and communicate our reasoning back to the Commission prior to their meeting of September 8 .

FLOYD BELSITO From CAPTAIN MICHAEL C. BURKENFIELD City Administrator Special Operations Commander Subject CENTRAL CITY PARK PEDESTRIAN WAY Date SEPTEMBER 1, 1976 Over the past several months, I have had conversation with both Norm Worthy and Chief Robitaille on the proposed tunnel connecting Central City Park at Golden West. We concur with the need to provide either an overpass or an underpass at .this location to facilitate the safe movement of pedestrians, bicyclists and equestrians from one section of the park to the other. However, there exists a serious question in our minds on the use of a tunnel. t .. It has been our experience that tunnels create unique problems dealing with both health and safety. If the tunnel is small, or constructed on a subterranean grade level, there exists lighting and ventilation problems. Additionally, they may require some type of police service as they historically become havens perverts and other types of individuals who threaten the safety of children. Many jurisdictions who have constructed tunnels have found it necessary to place either guards in them, or to close them off completely. Bridges, on the. other hand, can be lit from external sources and are generally open to view which greatly increases the safety of the user, and eliminates problems of police. concern. The only consideration that must be given a bridge, is some type of screening device so that foreign objects cannot be dropped on vehicular traffic. If we are to provide you with a critical and comprehensive assessment on this subject, it would be necessary for us to review the proposed plans. However, without additional information, it is our recommendation that the city pursue the project by planning a bridge rather than a tunnel. 1 4CN, HAEL C.

Harlow, City Council Members Acting City Administrator Subject TENNIS AND SKATEBOARD FACILITY Date September 30 , 1976 PROPOSAL FOR CENTRAL PARK Attached is a memorandum from Norm Worthy, Recreation and Parks Director, outlining action taken by the Recreation and Parks Com- mission on proposals to establish a skateboard park and a tennis court complex in Central Park. The tennis courts would be built and operated by Tennis Concepts Incorporated. Tom Conel of that company presented the proposal to Council members Gibbs and Siebert on September 22nd. As City Council liaisons.-to the Recreation:an'd Parks Commission, Mrs. Gibbs and Mr. Siebert recommended approval in concept of the tennis facil- ity. A copy of a model lease agreement drawn up by Tennis Concepts has. been forwarded to the City Attorney for his review. Among the matters to be addressed in negotiating the lease is whether under the current Central Park Master Concession Lease the proposed Tennis Concepts agreement should be a direct lease with the City or a sub- lease with the Master Concessionaire. A possible prohibitive factor to both proposals is a deed restric- tion imposed by HUD on Central Park property stipulating full public access for moderate and low income residents . I have discussed this matter with Mac Hopkins , a Community Planning and Development Rep- resentative with HUD. Mr. Hopkins would like to work with represent- atives of the City and the proposed facilities to insure that proper access is afforded if the Council approves the facilities in concept. RECOMMENDATION Approve the tennis facility proposal in concept. -At the suggestion of" Councilman- Siebert, receive and. study the skateboard park proposal for future consideration. .

One suggestion was that the fence could be re-installed so that pedestrians will be forced to use crosswalk . The existing intersection is not the final location according to currently adopted street alignment . Mr . Worthy stated that the anticipated expense for an interchange as suggested in his memo would exceed one million dollars . In view of this ,' City Council probably would not approve . There is an urgency to spend the $143 , 000 H .U.D . funds this year . Mr. Worthy stated the street alignment must be resolved before any action can be definite about a bridge or tunnel . The Public Works Department should resolve Talbert-Golden West inter- section so we may explore the definite location of a bridge or tunnel . We should explore the additional development projects : 1) Nature Center development ; 2) Improve City Park Drive as a parking lot ; 3) Construct a new parking lot off Golden Nest near the Nature Center ; 4) Improve H. C .P . water wells and S) Construct group picnic shelter near Tom' s Place, as well as to 6) Acquire S acres in Phase IV. HORSE TRESPASSING e secon item to be discussed was the problem with horse traffic . Mr . Worthy stated that we will be signing a new lease with Reynolds Stables for one year very shortly. It will then be a month to month basis . _ One of the problems is that we no longer have a fence between the Reynolds Stables and H.C .P . Mr. Cooper suggested that H.C .P . Park Ranger Dave Winkler be contacted and assure him that we are looking into the problem as brought out in his report. The committee recom- mended that a fence be instalTed along Taylor Street adjacent to the Reynolds property to prevent horses from crossing into the park. 2 - Huntington Central Park Committee September 29 , 1976 TENNLS CONCEPTS, INC ..

After both tennis experiences we can heartily recommend both the facility and its operational policy. The courts are excellent and the entire complex is spanking brand new and tastefully laid out. I.t is a boon to tennis players in north Orange County. Adding the Portola Park courts to the existing 7 in neighboring Fullerton's Tennis Center provides 19 outstanding courts for those utilizing the "pay-to-play" concept. Portola Park is on Euclid just two long blocks south of the La Habra Civic Cen- ter. The L.a Habra Public Tennis Center occupies a major portion of the park. At present some 12 courts are 'in operation (two of these will be ready this r;ontin). Long range plans call for an addition of four (;ore. In addition there are three pract.ice alleys. Court lighting is the finest we have experienced anywhere: Court fencing includes full lumite surfaces on all outward .facing exteriors.. The court surfaces' are rely-- tivoly slow, probably a testimony to the newness. This d-idn't. bother tha editor, how- . even two riiembers of our party commented on the surface.

Court reservations are normally taken three days in advance, though La Habrc residents have one additional day in which to makl.e reservations. Court usage is $2.00/hour week days, $2.50 weekday evenings and $:3.00 on weekends. The facility is open 7 to 11 seven days a week. Besides the courts and practice alleys the facility includes a large completely stock(-�d pro-shop, -a set of vending machines for both food and drink, tiled shower roo,-ns and lockers. Dottie said that they are presently setting up a number of programs at the La Habra Center. These include weekday round. robins for women, a mens ladder and a r�s w-c-kend round robin.

Then .followed a relative slumber of enthusiasm until the invention of the urethane wheel . This substance was softer and thus more re- sponsive than the original metal or hard-rubber wheels, providing for good traction and control . As a result, infinitely more maneuvers became possible and skateboarding regained its popularity many-fold. - It now represents one of the fastest-growing markets in the sports industry. The popularity of skateboarding is-enormous: ' There are approximately 12 - 15 mill-ion enthusiasts worldwide: Six million skateboards were sold in the U.S.A. alone in 1975. SKATEBOARDER Magazine currently has a net paid circula- tion in excess of 125,000, a figure which indicates a regular readership of over 1/2 million. There has even been talk of 'creating a skateboarding event for the Olympics, a downhill motion .sport closely related to skiing and surfing, sharing the enthusiasm of these sports afficcianados. Skateboarding also enjoys a great deal of television and other media coverage; numerous lecture and film circuits, as well as local , school , and na- tional level competitions, support the wide-spread acceptance of skateboarding as a serious sport that is definitely here to stay. I have no doubt that this will become as well-established as ice and roller skating and bowling as a sport that is inexpensive, . good exercise, and, .most of all , fun. The first aspect of the sport .of skateboarding which we, as members of the public, should consider -is safety. , We all realize that the possibility of accidents exists whatever the sport. One must keep in mind the inherent risks of such sports as football , bicycling, skiing, baseball , and golf (250 people were killed in golf-related accidents last year). However, there is a popular misconception that skateboarding, in and of itself, is unusually dan- gerous. This is not true? As a matter of fact, there are more bed-related in- juries than those arising from skateboarding in a given time, according to sta- tistical data! The technical developments of flexible trucks, urethane wheels, and de- sign sophistication has solved many of the control problems relating to skate- boarding. This makes these mystical boards much easier to ride, and therefore ,� safer, than the old boards of the mid-60's which originally earned the sport the reputation of being dangerous. The real danger lies in the fact that most skaters exercise their sport in the streets and sidewalks, reservoirs, and drainage ditches; areas which are hazardous to the public and the skateboarder alike. What Collins and Dogler and we propose to do is minimize this danger by providing an area exclusively for skateboarding. - Through- mathematical cal- culations to determine maximum speeds, angular moments, and other physical phenomena, we intend to design a truly safe course where skaters will have no vehicles or other hazardous obstacles with which to compete.- Secondly, we will require the use of safety equipment, such as helmets, knee pads, gloves, etc. and will provide such equipment for rental . SKATEBOARDER Magazine, the definitive voice of the sport, stresses safety and the necessity of using protective clothing. The great emphasis 'on such gear makes it a must to be "in" in the skater's world, -re-enforcing the importance of its use. However, the concept of safety should not stop at the level of equipment. We must also look ahead in the effort of preventing accidents. For the past eight years, I was a member of the National Ski Patrol . A patrolman does more than just care for broken bones, dislocations, lacerations, etc. An equally important aspect of the job is to guide people to an area commensurate with their abilities. Many injuries are caused by an athlete attempting slopes be- yond his skill . This same approach to safety can easily be applied to skate- parks by designating "Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced" areas and patrolling the park to make sure that a given skater can handle the course on which he is ' performing. This patrolman can also control "traffic", so that skaters don't become a hazard to themselves and others. Another important advantage to such supervision would be that the offi- cial would be trained in an advanced level of first aid, qualification for which must be maintained by attending refresher sessions from the American Red Cross every year. To augument this program, a physical facility for on-the-spot first aid would be built at the skatepark. After safety, the next consideration which occurs to me as a parent is cost. How much would it cost to take up the sport of skateboarding? The - 2 - board, complete with wheels and trucks, ranges from $10.00 to $90.00; knee pads are about $2.00; gloves are available from- .60 to $20.00; and a helmet i costs from $10.00 to $50.00. The total cost can be well under $50.00. Compare this to $100.00 for a surfboard and a minimum of $250.00 for skis, boots, bind- ings, poles; and warm clothing for snow skiing, and skateboarding appears far more accessible for most budgets. - Finally, skateboarding is a highly individualistic- sport which allows a large variety of people from all backgrounds, locations, budgets, and physical characteristics to participate. - It's fun right from the beginning, and 'it isn't extremely difficult to attain a level of proficiency at this sport. Unlike -team sports which require expertise, a child never has to sit on the bench watching the more coordinated kids having fun; he can get out there on his board and have a ball even if he's the smallest or slowest one in the group. A skateboarder competes against himself in developing his skill . In this sport, each individual uses his own imagination and talent. And the satisfaction he feels when swoop- ing down bowls and over banks, or gliding through a slalom course is the real reward. Skateboarding is really a fine sport - inexpensive, accessible, and fun. It's good exercise too, and is a healthy and wholesome way for a youngster to spend his time and energy. We want to provide a safe environment for skaters to practice their graceful dance on the rolling board and get them off the streets and sidewalks. - 3 - ({ THE SPORT Skateboarding first became a serious and popular sport in 'the mid-60's when California surfers sought an alternate form of activity which simulated the exercise and movements of wave-riding, yet which could be practiced even when the waves weren't up. At that time, skateboards primarily had wooden bodies and hard, composite wheels, which allowed only.a limited range of moves and tricks. As a result, by 1967, _skateboarding had subsided in popu- larity to a few hard-core groups of enthusiasts who lived in hilly areas parti- cularly suited to the downhill game. Then, in 1974, and again in California, a new skateboard wheel was de- veloped; this ,was to make skateboarding as a sport more valid and involved than ever before. The softer, more surface-adhesive urethane wheel didnt stop suddenly at cracks or rocks, would cling to banked terrains, and created a much safer, more responsive experience. After a year or so of relative slumber, the new wheels and the r.esult.ing trucks and sophisticated equipment in general began to turn on youngsters ail- over the country to the fact that,ail those paved sur- faces around the neighborhood were now potential resources for graceful , athle- tic play. And so the boom began. . .and out of it has emerged an art form: down- hill racing, head-to-head slalom, and the ballet-like grace of freestyle, not to mention the pure and simple joy of having so much fun right in your own drive- way. In support of the estimated 12 .- 15 million enthusiasts are many local , school , and national-level competitions, as well as numerous lecture circuit films, and an avalance of television coverage. Unlike the "fad" of the mid-60's, skateboarding surely is here to stay, as evidenced by the growing list of per- manent skateboard parks from coast-to-coast. 4 - /1 1� • THE MARKET Skateboarding as a market, from June, 1975 to June, 1976 has been es- timated at over $300,000,000.00 in retail sales. Further estimates include 6,000,.000 skateboards, ranging i'n' retail price from $10.00 to $90.00 each, sold last year. Accessories, clothing, and safety equipment also are part of the expanding market. Starting primarily in Southern California and spreading across the country, skateboards and related accessories are sold in all 5.0 states. Pre- sently, the greatest concentration of sales is in Southern California, the Southwest, Southeast, and Northeast. Potentially, every paved street or drive- way is an area upon which the skateboarder can perfect his ability. - 5 - l 1 ADVERTISING AND THE AREA Advertising of the market has been done almost exclusively through the Skateboarder Magazine. The Skateboarder's growth has been nothing short of phenomenal . Starting in June, 1975 with a circulation of 65,000, increasing within one year to currently 125,000 and presently with a growing rate of 15% per issue, Skateboarder is distributed world-wide on newstands, at surf, ski , bicycle, and other specialty stores, and by subscription. Area: We recommend that the City of Huntington Beach's Central Park be highly considered as the location for a Skate Board Park. The reasons are numerous: First, we consider that the 'location of Central Park to be the "Central Hub" of the City of Huntington Beach. Secondly, access to the Park is easily accom- plished either by public transportation, automobile, bicycle, or walking. The park is located approximately five minutes from both the San Diego Freeway and the South Coast Highway. Thirdly, the development of the Central Park presumes - the thought of recreational uses for the public. Fourth, since skate boarding as a sport and also as an event for competition, we realize there will be the necessity for adequate parking. Presently, we propose the development of a parking area for approximately 200 cars. However, the probability for 1 ,000 cars attending large scale com- petition meets can be easily handled within the immediate area of the proposed Skate Board Park. l The fifth reason is that the area we have selected allows the ability to expand the course area as the demand for more and varying courses become apparent. The sixth is that Central Park is an area keenly located, for at the pre- sent there exists ample vacant land for any number of reasons. Along with the proposed Skate Board Park there are two complementary facilities proposed for the Park. They are tennis and golf. These three sports would, in our minds, complement each other in a family-oriented manner. We hope the family will use these facilities in their own individual way; then later relax and picnic within - 6 - M•S the scenic park. We feel the Central Park would benefit in two ways. The first - the City of Huntington Beach would receive revenues directly from each facility to help in the maintenance and advertising of the Central Park. Secondly, the Central Park would. benefit by the increased attendance related to the proposed- facilities.. PROPOSAL For SUB CONCESSION UNDER THE MASTER LEASE With The HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK CONCESSION COMPANY . Huntington Beach, California June 23, 1976 Proposal Pursuant to paragraph 35 of Master Lease between the City of Huntington Beach and Huntington Central Park Concession Company, dated December 4, 1972, we hereby propose an additional facility to be located in the Park site. This facility will be a Skate Board Park, which will include the following: 1 . 30,000 square feet of rideable area. 2. 1 ,500 square foot building, which will include: a. . Ticket counter b. Rental area c. Pro Shop d. First aid room e. Rest area f. Rest rooms 3. 9,000 square foot asphalted parking lot. 4. Spectator area (to be developed as demand increases). _ 5. Lockable Bike Racks 6. The total area will be enclosed with chain link fencing and landscaping will be completed in areas required. Proposed Operation Days and hours of operation: Operational hours we initially propose are from 10 AM to 6 PM. These ,hours may vary as the attendance times at the course becomes known. The course -� - 8 - f/ " J 4 will be open 7,, days a week. Later, the hours of operation will be increased into the evenings when the future development of night lights are completed. , Safety Provisions , The course will be built to provide for three different levels of . skateboarding: There will be. a separate beginner's area; in the future. possibly'. to provide beginners' instructions. Secondly, areas of the intermediate and advanced skaters will be designated .within the second and larger course.. . We will require the wearing of safety equipment such as helmets, knee and elbow pads, gloves, and once developed, the wrist and arm brace.- . Further, we will require certain attire of the participants. Further; we will require certain attire of the participants. We will pro- vide both the use of a. Skate Patroller and a separate first aid room, .enabling us . to control the skaters using the -faci1 ity- dangerously' and-provi-ding-a-place- for --- first aid treatment of. injuries if they occur. Estimated Attendance Based on a survey compiled at the site located in Carlsbad, California: The Carlsbad course presently has 12,000 square feet of ride-able surface area. Its-location is approximately 5 - 10 miles from major residential areas. A large percentage of the skaters are from areas outside Carlsbad. . On weekends, we have noted that. there are approximately 45 participants per session, which is the maximum amount per session. The Carlsbad location is approximately 8 10 miles inland of the ocean. We noted that the summer daytime course temperatures are high; high enough that skaters find it difficult to- skate for long durations. Because of. this, the Carls- bad course has installed night lighting which seems to attract more skaters during the cooler evening .temperatures. Based on the attendance figures at this course, and being far from resi- dential areas with only the automobile as a ,means of transportation, we have determined that with our proposed course being subjected to ocean breezes and cooler temperatures, the availability of public transportation and close to resi dential areas, we will have .an attendance proportionally equal to that of the Carlsbad course. Using their figures of. 45 persons per session skating on 12,000 square feet, we have estimated on our proposed 30,000 square feet of. ride-able area, we will have an estimated 112 persons per session. Using the figure of 100 days per year (this figure is used *in recreational areas as _a constant) and initially 8.. hours of operation per day, -at a proposed admission cost of $1 .00 per hour, -we have determined our initial gross to be $89.600 in the first year of operation. Spectator Events We propose not only the use of the Park as a place for individual enjoy- ,ment, but for competit.ional events. As skate boarding progresses, we realize, that like any other sport, there is also always a form of competition between -indi-viduals--and. groups.-_- Noting that, . some school systems---have-recently-provided. Physical Education classes to teach the rudiments of skate boarding. These practices may lead .into the ability of school systems to form their own teams which will. result in the competition between other schools or other school systems. We would enjoy the thought of the school system within the City of Huntington Beach using this facility as a place, not only to teach the aspects of skate boarding, but also as a place to compete against each other's teams. Again, we would hope to provide this area as a Regional and National. area for large competition events similar to the events that are to take place in New York (plasters Invitational ) and in Carlsbad, California (World Invitational ). In Summary Because of the.extensive costs and our desire to build the finest facility of its type and to gain maximum exposure and reputation as an industry leader, we would appreciate your agreement with our. proposal to build a Skate Board Park in the location we have selected. We realize, of course, your approvals are not the final authorization from the City of Huntington Beach. However, we are prepared to start construction once we obtain the final permission from the City. vv - 10 j We feel that not only are we building a facility to enable children and teenagers and all others, to express themselves physically, but we are providing an area for a wholesome activity that has been basically outlawed in the City of ,-.: ,. Huntington Beach.: I believe that we, as parents, are doing something constructive for our children, -and that. our children can be 'proud, knowing that we, as adults, . wish to provide such a facility. I know my son and his skate board friends are, hoping that this site (or another) will be selected for Skate Board Park. /s/ August Henry Reiter Proposed Sub Concessionnaire 2039 Vista Cajon Newport Beach, California v� nn�� is PROJECTED FINANCIAL DATA Projected Construction Costs: Building •1 ,500 sq.., ft. @ .20 .sq. ft. 1$30,000 Park 30,000 813.00 - 90,000 Parking 10,000 1 .00 " 10,000 Landscaping & fencing 10,000 Permit Fees & Misc. , 5,000 Estimated Total Project $145,000 Projected Income $ 89,600 Projected Yearly Expenses: Rent to City @ 5% $4,080 Loan -15% .(10 year) 12,000 Insurance 15% 13,500 Labor 42,000 Possessory interest, taxes 4,000 and Licenses Overhead and maintenance 4,500 Advertising 2,000 Total Expenses $81 ,000 .Gross . . . . . . . . . $89,600 Projected Net Profit_ (before amortization and income taxes)' . $8,920. - 12 - l I TALBERT AVENUAML RESTAURANT gt �:-COURSE° ` 3 � - -i�x-� ems'- �-� ?�€ _ "�'^ ;Y''s .; ¢' ;. •>F• -�, £»,- a°`,;rrn€ a 15" t+�8&> sr'"tt;% ' wy - �'•._,>y. _,£ PARKINGA4 o � �Y. � F �m R�>•'e - r-a <z � -.L� Y >&� .. g ?_': s'x'�'s `r r -.., `2D; "•:+� �'�: ill IMM .a' -_Ev x a, } a" d _ x � � .�5 -rm � �. °�"� q, _�, 5�r€x" � ,� a•.>;, s �'„ cn ; .� � � Trl: �: .

De La Loza City Administrator Departmental Analyst Sr. Subject Central Park Lease Date January 8, 1976 Past Due Rent The following is for purposes of clarification on the past due rent. The rent that is delinquent is the agreed upon minimum annual rent. Regular quarterly payments on the percentage of gross receipts have been made by Taylor Enterprises. This minimum annual rent, orignally due on Jan. 1 , 1975, was not paid on that date because of a requested amendment in the "accounting year" by the lessee. The request was accompanied by a pro rata payment of the minimum annual rent to October 31 , 1974. Thus, the new accounting year was advanced to October 31 , 1975• A request for payment was then made by the City on October 24, 1975 pursuant to this amendment (see attached) . However, on November 11 , 1975, the lessee denied the validity of the amendment and instead elected to adhere to the original January due date (see attached) . It was, therefore, this unforeseen change in position by the lessee (on November I ]. - 1975) that gave rise to the delinquent status. Had Taylor Enterprises paid the rent due on October 31 , 1975, there would have been no past due rent. A. De La Loza Departmental Analyst Sr. F. B.

The first check, amounting to $35 , 545 . 78 , represents 100% of the relocation expenses involved in relocating two property owners whose property was acquired by the City in Huntington Central Park. The second check, amounting to $272 , 873 , represents HUD' s 50% obligation in funding litigation awards over and above the appraised value of the property. The litigation award reimbursement was successful only after consider- able inducement on our part to convince the Department of Housing and Urban Development that it was obligated to share in the adverse awards promulgated by the jury decisions . Now that we have received all of the reimbursements requested from HUD by the City, there still remains approximately $418 , 770 owing the City from the HUD contracts . The only remaining parcel to be acquired under the HUD contract is the Sully Miller parcel in Phase IIA of Central Park. Although HUD had previously agreed to assist the City with a $275 , 000 grant, we were able to convince HUD to consolidate all of the grants into one overall grant, thereby realizing an additional $143 , 770 in Federal funds to assist us in this acquisition. As far as I know, this is the first consolidated grant that HUD has approved. Upon the successful conclusion of negotiations with the Sully Miller property, the City will have received>,a total of $2 , 510 ,056 in Federal funds from the Department of Housing and._ Urban Development to assist us in Huntington Central Park. I want to recognize Bud Belsito for his role in success- fully working out these negotiations with HUD. Respectfully submitted, "o- 6Z,2'a, David D.

HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK The project is 77% complete as compared to 70% in February. Work completed during the past month includes detail work on buildings and electrical contracts . Major work yet to be completed includes paving, irrigation and landscaping. Due to the weather delay, completion is estimated to be as late as the end of August , almost three months later than scheduled. Including a 60-day maintenance period allowing for a mature growth to withstand foot and play traffic , opening the park could be delayed to October. Staff will closely monitor and supervise the construction contract in order to expedite completion, weather withstanding. 2 . HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK CONCESSION NOTES Rough schematics will be displayed and reported to the Commission at the March 14th meeting. If acceptable at this stage to the Commission and Design Review Board staff, the drawings will be detailed, taken to the Design Review Board, and then returned to the Commission for final approval and recommendation. This should be expedited in order to provide for heavy construction prior to park completion. 3.

The City has acquired 10 acres of Phase III property on Edwards Street and is negotiating for an additional 10 acres west of Goldenwest . Several encyclo- pedia lots have also been picked up as they become available at tax sales . During December, staff met with Stone $ Youngberg, municipal financing consultant for the City on the Central Park, Civic Center and Library, to discuss the preparation of a comprehensive financing report pertaining to the proposed project. Such an objective report would examine the feasibility and applicability of the several methods available for financing acquisition of the Phase III property for use as a golf course and related recreational uses . The second purpose would be to examine the tangible and intangible benefits to the general public. A report as described above could certainly serve to obtain financing for the project. The cost of the study is estimated not to exceed $3 ,500 based on the standard fee schedule for these services . The fee is further predi- cated on a cumulative schedule taking into account all previous work done by Stone $ Youngberg for the City. Services to be performed by the Consultant for this fee are explicitly outlined in the contract reviewed as to form and content by the City Attorney. The Recreation and Parks Commission has recommended the following action at their regular meeting of December 22 , 1972 : RECOMMENDATION Authorize the City Administrator to retain the firm of Stone & Youngberg to perform the financing feasibility study for Central Park Phase III .

EIR's have been filed and accepted so far on Edison Community Park and the recreational trails plan. . The City's Environmental Review Board is recommending in-other correspondence to the Council that neighbor- hood parks be excluded from filing due to the small size and nature of those projects. , Staff has solicited proposals , upon the advice of the City Attorney, for the balance of the major City capital projects . All proposals have been predicated on conformity to City adopted EIR guidelines and procedures , the. State Environmental Quality Act of 1970 , Chapter 971 of the Laws of 197.2, and the National Environmental, Protection Act. The following proposals have been made : 1 . Civic Center - $4 ,965 . - Erikssan, Peters & Thoms , Landscape Architects for the project. I 2. Central. Park and Library - $9,000 - Eckbo , Dean, Austin and Williams , Landscape Architects and Consultants for both projects. The above firms were selected simply because they are in possession of much of the base data, preliminary feasibility reports , and would require only supplemental data from allied disciplines to substantiate earlier research. The methodology will include the presentation technique and graphic material most suitable to each particular project.

The Commission felt that the Recrea- tion and Parks Department requests should have been given a higher priority as land acquisition for park and recrea- tional purposes is a pure capital investment which will be- nefit all current and future residents of the City as well as visitors to our City. RECOMMENDATION: MOTION: Mr. Curran moved the Recreation and Parks Commission recommend to Mr. Rowlands and the City Council that a major portion of Entitlement I, II, and III revenue sharing funds be used for acquisition of additional property in Phase IIA and Phase III of Huntington Central Park.

He stated that this situation had arisen as a result of the relocation of Talbert Avenue through Huntington Central Park. He spoke regarding the importance to the City in obtaining clear title to this property in relation to the HUD Grant. The Administrator requested approval of the purchase, in order to facilitate the delivery of the $5,000,000 in Non-Profit Corporation Bonds for the Library scheduled to take place September 28, 1972. The Assistant City Administrator addressed Council concerning the procedures which must be taken by the City before the sale is consummated.

Proposed Park Concession Policy 2 . Draft Invitation for Concession Proposals As the Central Park Construction contract was awarded on April 3 , it is appropriate to next consider park concession policy, the solicitation of proposals and subsequent implementation. It is proposed that the two documents above , based on the EDAW economic study and staff surveys , form the basis for the eventual solicita- tion and award of a master lease . There is a major advantage of proceeding now due to the ease of concession installation during construction. A second aTvantage is that all proposals can be thoroughly reviewedTy team expertise composed of the Directors of Finance , Public Works , Recreation and Parks and City Administrator . The proposed documents have been reviewed by the City Attorney and recommended to Council by the Recreation and Parks Commission . RECOMMENDATIONS 1 . Adopt the Park Concession Policy. 2 . Approve the solicitation of proposals . 3. Instruct the City Administrator to make a concessionaire recommendation. Respectfully submitted , 'C'. Z 6E'424/-' David D. Rowlands City Administrator DDR/gbs PROPOSED-PARK�Wr CONCESSION POLICY In the preparation o/f this policy and any potential concession , consideration is given to the procedures , terms and conditions under which concessio eements are made throughout Southern California and the state . T will include safeguards as to public interest , reversion to pu lic ownership and operation , and rental fees for concession activities required to provide full service to the public and still provide partial funding to offset maintenance costs . This policy will not concern itself with user fees which should be con- sidered as a separate policy. The following philosophy should form the outline for standard con- cession agreements : 1 . The City should encourage the use of private capital for develop- ment of needed concession facilities in parks . 2 . The City will provide all primary facilities such as utilities to concession site , paths , and ancillary requirements . 3 . Contracts with concessionaires for construction and operation of facilities should be awarded through negotiation on the basis of probable success . 4 . The determination of gross percentage rates should be based on evaluation of the following factors : a . The investment capital required. b . The potential gross revenue . C . The potential net revenue . d . The controls exercised and maintained by the City . e . The high possessory interest tax applied to local government concessions in this county. S . The concessionaire ' s capital investment and amortization schedule should be evaluated. If investment is high, the concessionaire should be allowed a reasonable early amortization period or long term contract in order to provide the City a greater overall total revenue during the life of the contract . 6 . The City should provide strict audit and price control on services of the concessionaire . 7 . The City will construct and operate all parking facilities except those that are an integral part of a concession. 8 . All proposed concessions will be evaluated as to imaginative character and non-carnival nature with architectural and structural controls administered by appropriate City agencies . 9 . The level of service will be to conduct and maintain the concession as a safe , clean, and first class operation . 10 . The concessionaire will maintain insurance policies during the term of the contract covering public liability and property damage in minimum sums to protect the City. 11 . The concessionaire will comply with all standards of health codes , safety, maintenance and courtesy to best serve the interests of all concerned . T INVITATION FOR PROPOSALS MASTER LEASE CONCESSION DEVELOPMENT HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH AVAILABLE TO PUBLIC WHAT : An opportunity to invest in the acquisition of a master concession leasehold for boat rentals , two refreshment stands , and bicycle rentals plus ancillary services common to these concessions . WHERE : Huntington Central Park, Huntington Beach, California . This 207 acre recreational park complex is in the physical and population center of the city. The park has two lakes and will become the focal point for the passive recreational activities of the greater Huntington Beach community. WHEN: Proposals for financing , design , construction and operation of the concessions will be accepted on or before July 1 , 1972 . At the earliest possible date , this office will analyze the proposals submitted , recommend a master-lessee developer and a proposed contract to the Recreation and Parks Commission and City Council for approval . This will assure the utmost possible coordination between concession development and park improvements now under construction. WHO : To obtain information or discuss the concession program at the park, please contact : Tom Severns , Development Coordinator City Administrator ' s Office City of Huntington Beach 520 Pecan Avenue , P .O . Box 190 Huntington Beach, California 92648 Telephone : (714) 536-5207 INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES MASTER LEASE CONCESSION DEVELOPMENT HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH GENERAL DESCRIPTION Huntington Central Park, approximately 200 acres in size , has more potential for fulfilling the recreational needs of Western Orange County than most parks in the area . The park will ultimately cover 400 acres to include either a golf course or high-activity area. Accessibility to the park is excellent , direct service being provided by two major arterial highways expected to handle 30 , 000 cars a day by 1980. The San Diego Freeway is approximately two miles to the north. Should Coast Freeway be completed to the south, the park would be visited on a regional basis . The existence of two natural lakes on the site will significantly contribute to the recreational potential as one is planned ex- clusively for fishing and the other for fishing and boating . The new Huntington Central Library and Cultural Resource Center will be built in 1972- 73 at a cost of $3 , 000 ,000 on a knoll overlooking the fishing lake . The population of the city has a median age of 24 . 7 with the current census exceeding 137 , 000 people . It is anticipated that the population will exceed 225 ,000 by 1990 . Projected annual attendance for the park developed by D .R.A. reveals 1 ,089 ,000 visitors in 1975 , 1 ,400 ,000 in 1980 and 1 ,870 , 000 in 1990 . These figures include only those people who participate in outdoor recreation activities not including golf.

CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH COUNCIL - ADMINISTRATOR COMMUNICATION CA 72- 76 HUNTINGTON BEACH To The Honorable Mayor and From City Administrator City Council Members Subject CENTRAL PARK CONCESSION Date November 16 , 1972 (MUSGROVE LETTER) Attached is a letter from William S. Musgrove in regard to the Central Park Concession and the reply which I requested from Tom Severns , Director of Environmental Resources . Respectfullv submitted, 4&2. • /-Y David D . Rowlands City Administrator DDR: eh Attachments r i November 7, 1972 City Council City Hall City of Huntington Beach, Cal.. Re: Item N-2 of Agenda of Nov. 6, 1972 To the Members of the City Council: Gentlemen: I attended your meeting last night with my son. Relative to your action on item N-2, Central Park Concession Lease, I object for the following reasons: a.) This is a lease for a 25 year period and every opportunity should be explored and afforded to those working to submit a bid. This is essential in the best interests of the city and citizens to get the best qualified concessionaire. Besides rev< nue, it is in the interests of the citizens to get the greatest use Venefit from the o-peration. b.) This action "whisked" through the cou.,cil without due deliberation or discussion in sufficiency and afforded no offering from the citizens in attendance. c.) This offering never had a. formal bid package with all .required materials clearly stating the citys' position, desires, and complete intents. d.) A specific due date for sijbmission was never formerly or formally stated er,-cept orally and vaguely. The wants of the city were gradually exposed during the bid period. Extensions of the due date were never mailed to those :-orking to submit proposals (which may have been deemed acceptable because of the frequent oral contact ;with bidders) . These extensions were received in various ways, orally, and sometimes by accident. The final date was received by accident and was two weeks from the date of this action. e. ) The numerous and vague extensions negating tentative deadlines made it very difficult to tie down participants, especially fina:--Lcial, because we could :_ever give a specific time for when money would be required. Due to the lack of this specificity many people were leary of doing business ..•:ith the city. f.) We feel we have a very competitive offering to the one accepted this evening. We also consider our ideas advanced as proprietary. Due to the difficulties with deadlines we have just now tied down the financial people. g.) We have as one participant, the most outstanding man in the amusement field of his type in the U.S.A., on a par in his way with Disney, Mr. Bud Hurlbut of the Hurlbut Amusement Co. Mr. Hurlbut has all the rides and amusement concessions at Knotts Berry Farm. He has built some of the rides at Disney'L anti, has trains and rides in many countries of the world, and has had rides in all of the "Kiddie Land" types of operations around greater Los Angeles for the past 25 years. -1- i' ('To the City Council of Huntington Beach Continued) h.) Our offering is financially competitive plus offeri:.a; many features over and above that accepted. A synopsis of our offering; has been on file in Mr Torn Severns office since Nov 2, 1972. Our motif and plan of operation are more specific and .imaginative. Our time for completion was 6 months sooner than. that :accepted. i.) I represent two boys, my son aged 17 and Ron Aldrich aged 16, who have had a bait cocession at Talbert Lake for the past two years. These youths have worked hard and faithfully and are the -prime reason for the existence of our ;;roue. j.) There is nothing wrong with losing in a competition as lo-Z as your offering is considered in a balance against another on equal gro:_ands. To do this hog=never, there must be a specific date to meet for submission of a. full finished proposal. k.) It is;my understanding teat a contract has been u <der develonm-.nt -pith our competition for some time while th contest was still open to us and others. We request you set aside your action of last night and impose realistic guidelines for this competition so that proposals can be properly submitted and compared. Thank you. Sincerely, William S. Musgrovev 7591 Amazon 94 Huntington Beach, Calif. 92647 cc. Tyr. Alvin M. Coen, Mayor -2- CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH INTER-DEPARTMENT COMMUNICATION HUNTINGTON BEACH To David D. Rowlands From Tom Severns , Director of City Administrator Environmental Resources Subject CENTRAL PARK CONCESSION Date November 14 , 1972 (MUSGROVE LETTER) Pursuant to your instructions of November 11 , Mr. Musgrove ' s letter of protest is answered point for point as follows : a. "Every opportunity should be explored and afforded_, etc. " The concession project was subjected to due process and the attendant publicity as follows : 1 . April 5 , 1972 - Proposed park concession policy and draft invitation for concession proposals was processed through the Recreation and Parks Commission. 2 . May 3 , 1972 - No . 1 above processed and approved by City Attorney as to form and content. 3 . May 15 , 1972 - Council approved proposed park concession package including policy, solicitation and City Adminis- trator ' s recommendation. 4 . May 20 and 23 , 1972 —Concession package advertised. b . "Action whisked through Council , etc . " Staff has spent six months negotiating with prospective concessionaires . Council was apprised of each step and more than adequate newspaper coverage followed each step of the way. C. A "formal bid package" was received by Mr . Musgrove from evidence in our files , although to my recollection he may have lost the first one as he sought a second package during August or September. d. The "specific date" for submittal as shown in the exhibits was June 1 , 1972 , by the Recreation and' Parks Commission and July 1 , . 1972 , .by the Council and subsequent advertisement . The question arises on just how much "spoon feeding" is required for each applicant. Extensions were granted administratively for all parties requesting same due to their inability to get funding for construction requirements . To the very end, only three applicants appeared to have the ability to perform adequately. For the record, I have personally done everything possible to help the Musgrove ' s / a i i p.. A David D. Rowlands -2- November 14 , 1972 in spite of their failure to give us a home phone for contact, an address to write to , and an adequately solid background as to financing and performance . All proposals have been unsigned, nondated (last week' s was an exception) and insufficient as to detail . From my memory, they may have started their proposal at Norm Worthy' s request to me during June or July. e. Time has been extended for Musgrove and Musgrove alone at his request. Time was not extended for any other concessionaire. f. The competitive offering by Musgrove is in name only as they have copied the greatest part of it from the proposed contract worked out with Taylor. g. We have never been introduced to the people described as participants . They have not been defined as principals nor have they offered "proforma financial and background information" as requested in item 3 of the "invitation for proposals ." h. Th,e synopsis referred to in "h.) " of Musgrove' s November 7 letter is sketchy at best and has not been documented. It seems that the extensions of time granted Mr. Musgrove since July 1 , 1972 , have been to no avail. i . Mr. Musgrove neglects to mention that Norm Worthy and I ;worked long and hard with the boys and Musgrove on the bait stand and at several meetings since July 1st to help them come up with a feasible proposal . j . We have given them a copy of the contract worked out specifi- cally for Taylor Enterprises from the original blanket draft of July 1st to be used by all proposers . They have apparently patterned their entire proposal after this contract and failed to follow through with sufficient details by the November 6th Council meeting to warrant consideration. In closing, it should be stressed in retrospect that we should not have administratively continued the concession proposal procedure this long for Musgrove ' s benefit. Construction of concessions must start prior to February planting and landscaping in order to avoid damage to facilities nearing completion. My personal evaluation of this letter is that it is overreaction to a rather disappointing chain of circumstances where the proposer has had difficulty in arrang' financial backing.

Rowlands , City Administrator Paul Jones, City Clerk Gentlemen : The Planning Commission, at their January Study Session, noted that several small lots are being sold by various realtors within Phase III of Huntington Central Park for use as building sites and equestrian stables. The Commission is concerned with the problems these sales will create as future acquisition of the property takes place .for Phase III of Central Park. The Planning Commission has requested the ' Board of Realtors to cooperate with the City by not advertising these small lots as areas where people may keep horses. These lots are within an area designated on the Master Plan as being non—structurally blighted, because of lot size and access. In addition, the .City has already purchased a number of these small lots . at tax safe . It . is the unanimous recommendation of the Commission that t the City acquire these small lots as they are listed for sale. Respectfully submitted, K. A .

Proposed Park Concession Policy 2 . Draft Invitation for Concession Proposals As the Central Park Cons;.ruction contract was awarded on April 3 , it is appropriate to next consider park concession policy, the solicitation of proposals and subsequent implementation. It is proposed that the two documents above , based on the EDAW economic study and staff surveys , form the basis for the eventual solicita- tion and award of a master lease. There is a major advantage of proceeding now due to the ease of concession installation during construction. A second advantage is that all proposals can be thoroughly reviewed-'Fy—team expertise composed of the Directors of Finance , Public Works , Recreation and Parks and City Administrator . The proposed documents have been reviewed by the City Attorney and recommended to Council by the Recreation and Parks Commission. RECOM14ENDATIONS 1 . Adopt the Park Concession Policy. 2 . Approve the solicitation of proposals . 3. Instruct the City Administrator to make a concessionaire recommendation. Respectfully submitted, David D . Rowlands City Administrator DDR/gbs i PROPOSED PARK CONCESSION POLICY In the preparation of this policy and any potential concession , consideration is given to the procedures , terms and conditions under which concession agreements are made throughout Southern California and the state . These will include safeguards as to public interest , reversion to public ownership and operation , and rental fees for concession activities required to provide full service to the public and still provide partial funding to offset maintenance costs . This policy will not concern itself with user fees which should be con- sidered as a separate policy. The following philosophy should form the outline for standard con- cession agreements : 1 . The City should encourage the use of private capital for develop- ment of needed concession facilities in parks . 2 . The City will provide all primary facilities such as utilities to concession site , paths , and ancillary requirements . 3 . Contracts with concessionaires for construction and operation of facilities should be awarded through negotiation on the basis of probable success . 4 . The determination of gross percentage rates should be based on evaluation of the following factors : a . The investment capital required. b . The potential gross revenue . C . The potential net revenue . d . The controls exercised and maintained by the City. e . The high possessory interest tax applied to local government concessions in this county. 5 . The concessionaire ' s capital investment and amortization schedule should be evaluated. If investment is high, the concessionaire should be allowed a reasonable early amortization period or long term contract in order to provide the City a greater overall total revenue during the life of the contract . 6 . The City should provide strict audit and price control on services of the concessionaire . 7 . The City will construct and operate all parking facilities except those that are an integral part of a concession . a t 8 . All proposed concessions will be evaluated as to imaginative character and non-carnival nature with architectural and structural controls administered by appropriate City agencies . 9 . The level of service will be to conduct and maintain the concession as a safe , clean, and first class operation . 10 . The concessionaire will maintain insurance policies during the term of the contract covering public liability and property damage in minimum sums to protect the City. 11 . The concessionaire will comply with all standards of health codes , safety , maintenance and courtesy to best serve the interests of all concerned . f INVITATION FOR PROPOSALS MASTER LEASE CONCESSION DEVELOPMENT HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH AVAILABLE TO PUBLIC WHAT : An opportunity to invest in the acquisition of a master concession leasehold for boat rentals , two refreshment stands , and bicycle rentals plus ancillary services common to these concessions . WHERE : Huntington Central Park, Huntington Beach , California. This 207 acre recreational park complex is in the physical and population center of the city. The park has two lakes and will become the focal point for the passive recreational activities of the greater Huntington Beach community. WHEN: Proposals for financing , design, construction and operation of the concessions will be accepted on or before July 1 , 1972 . At the earliest possible date , this office will analyze the proposals submitted , recommend a master-lessee developer and a proposed contract to the Recreation and Parks Commission and City Council for approval . This will assure the utmost possible coordination between concession development and park improvements now under construction. WHO : To obtain information or discuss the concession program at the park, please contact : Tom Severns , Development Coordinator City Administrator ' s Office City of Huntington Beach 520 Pecan Avenue , P .O. Box 190 Huntington Beach, California 92648 Telephone : (714) 536-5207 INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES MASTER LEASE CONCESSION DEVELOPMENT HUNTINGTON CENTRAL PARK CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH GENERAL DESCRIPTION Huntington Central Park , approximately 200 acres in size , has more potential for fulfilling the recreational needs of Western Orange County than most parks in the area . The park will ultimately cover 400 acres to include either a golf course or high-activity area. Accessibility to the park is excellent , direct service being provided by two major arterial highways expected to handle 30 ,000 cars a day by 1980 . The San Diego Freeway is approximately two miles to the north. Should Coast Freeway be completed to the south, the park would be visited on a regional basis . The existence of two natural lakes on the site will significantly contribute to the recreational potential as one is planned ex- clusively for fishing and the other for fishing and boating. The new Huntington Central Library and Cultural Resource Center will be built in 1972- 73 at a cost of $3 , 000 , 000 on a knoll overlooking the fishing lake . The population of the city has a median age of 24 . 7 with the current census exceeding 137 , 000 people . It is anticipated that the population will exceed 225 ,000 by 1990 . Projected annual attendance for the park developed by D .R.A. reveals 1 ,089 , 000 visitors in 1975 , 1 ,400 ,000 in 1980 and 1 ,870 , 000 in 1990 . These figures include only those people who participate in outdoor recreation activities not including golf.

WITNESS my hand and seal of the said City of Huntington Beach this the 14th day of December, 1971. City Clerk an x-officio Clerk of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach, California AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITY WOMEN "We the People" Study Group .Tune 7, 1971 Mayor and City Council Members Huntington Beach, California Honorable Mayor and City Council Members, The American Association of University Women study group "We the People" Is very concerned with the present delay in the park and library develop- ment due to the economic study. One aspect of the park which this group (formerly "The Human Use of Urban Space" ) has been very concerned about for the last year is the eventual route of Talbert Avenue. A year ago our "first choice" was stopping Talbert before the park, but we favored the southerly curved "Route D" in preference to continuing straight through. However, if economics are so important, and the environment also, why not stop Talbert Avenue at Gothard Street, as has been suggested by a number of Council members in the past? This would immediately save 4830, 000 to $1, 150, 000 for road construction costs, fencing, extra landscaping, etc. , although a portion of this might be needed ten to twenty years from now to improve the existing streets of Gothard, Ellis and Slater. This study group has come to the unanimous decision that they wished you to consider the following ideas--if indeed the routing of Talbert is being reconsidered at this time. If Talbert is stopped before the park at Gothard, 1. Six to fifteen acres of land would be available for park use. 2. The park would not be bisected by another hazardous high- speed highway. (Golden West is bad enough) . 3. The areas of the library and the lakes would be quieter, not Interrupted by the noise of an intersection, excessive traffic, and emergency vehicles wailing through the park. Pollution by exhaust fumes and litter would be reduced. 4. Prediction by Herman Kimmel and Associates, traffic engineers, Indicates that Golden West through the park would not be Increased appreciably in traffic. 5. Portions of existing Talbert could be used for access and parking for-the library, with minimal changing (as noted on Neutra's plans, October 1970) . The existing portion of Talbert near Edwards could also serve for parking for that area of the park. 6. Ellis could serve the needs for traffic flow into the Bolsa Chica properties, two individuals from Signal Oil have indicated. 7. Ellis could serve the needs for emergency vehicles, Additional fire fitnting facilities would hay. to be built in the Bolsa Chica area anyway by the time the 50, 000 projected population were living there. In addition, after talking with Mr. Storm, assistant to Mr. McConsell of the Orange County Road Department, we feel that the projected 30, 000 cars per day ultimate load (or 1 car past a given point every . 3 seconds, 24 hours a day) is probably a high estimate. This figure is based- on the present major industrial zoning (not yet developed) along Gothard, and the high density apartment zoning proposed in the Bolsa Chica property north of the proposed Pacific Coast Freeway. The current request for zoning in preparation for annexation of this area calls for less than 15% high density in this area, instead of the original 90%. (The remainder is R-1 and commercial ) . Hence the need of Talbert to handle 30, 000 cars per day may never exist. If Talbert were stopped at Gothard, and the need of an arterial between Slater and Ellis did arise 10-50 years from now,. a street could be cut through the park at that time, and not much greater cost than now. There have been comments that if Talbert were deleted from the County master Plan of Highways, Huntington Teach would not be eligible for County gas tax funds.' It doesn' t seem reasonable that if Talbert were taken off the niap at Gothard, and there were a need for increasing the capacity of Gothard, Ellis or Slater, that the county would refuse the highway construction funds from the gas tax. Contrary to previous arguments, the county might support this plan, as they did last month deny the extension of La Palma (a major highway across the county from Lakewood to Placentia) across the Santa Ana River into an area proposed for a park, but still under private ownership. The citizen sorely needs a place to get away from the noise and rush, and the closed-in feeling of our urban life. We have a unique opportunity to develop a Central Park that will be the natural and cultural heart of the city. The citizen voted for an open, green, free-flowing recreational area, not for four small park sections divided by two four-lane high-speed highways. Birds, animals and people would not migrate to a major intersection to listen to the roar and screech of cars, smell the fumes from the vehicles, and watch the fast-moving traffic. We have appreciated the leadership of the Council in the foresight and planning in this beautiful Central City Park and Library, and we want to see them brought to fruition. Let us consider the ecological, aesthetic, and economic needs of the community now and for the future, and not extend Talbert Avenue through the Central City Park. We urge that you make an early and a firm decision regarding Talbert Avenue and the library site so that park development and library construction can begin immediately.

Gentlemen: Pursuant to your request, the Planning Commission at their July 14, 1970, Study Session meeting reviewed alternatives for the treatment of Talbert Avenue through Huntington Central Park. It was their consensus that Talbert Avenue should be ex- tended west of Goldenwest Street, with a standard four- way intersection at Goldenwest . Talbert Avenue should then be placed in a tunnel for as long a distance as possible . The tunnel would begin as close to Goldenwest Street as possible . Its precise location would be determined after costs for relocating utilities, private oil lines and re- grading of the highway are established . It was also their consensus that the intersection of Golden- west Street and Talbert Avenue should be lowered. Respectfully submitted, K. A. Reynolds Secretary l/ City of Huntington Beach P.O.

D �� REPORT ON THE EXTENSION OF TALBERT AVENUE THROUGH THE CENTRAL CITY PARK Prepared by Department of Public Works INDEX SECTION TITLE PAGE I GENERAL 1. II REALIGN TALBERT AVENUE 1. III TALBERT AVENUE - PRESENT ALIGNMENT 2. IV NEW PROPOSALS 3. V SUMMARY 7. VI CONCLUSION 10. APPENDIX 11. I. GENERAL This report is intended to discuss in more detail the design alternatives presented in the previous report. In addition, four design alternatives are presented in connection with the proposal of extending Talbert Avenue westerly along its existing alignment. Although any discussion of traffic circulation within the Central Park area should possibly include consideration of the contribution of Ellis Avenue to the total transportation picture and its affect on surrounding land use; no discussion is presented regarding the extension or termination of Ellis Avenue in this report to allow more study on the function and effect of Ellis Avenue. II. REROUTE TALBERT AVENUE The general alignment of this route is depicted in red on Exhibit "A". Construction of Talbert Avenue is to primary arterial highway standards which includes two travel lanes in each direction, parking lanes, pedestrian walkways; all contained within a 100' right of way and an 84' curb to curb distance. This proposal was presented as an alternative to terminating Talbert Avenue at Gothard Street despite the fact that an access road would be needed to service the library and the parking structure. The architectural consul- tants showed Talbert Avenue (as fully improved primary arterial highway) extending easterly from Goldenwest Street to Gothard Street to provide access to the area surrounding the library site. The total cost of this proposal was based on a construction cost of $490,000 plus right-of-way acquisition of $200,000 in the area west of the -1- park boundary. The total figure of $690,000 does not include any funds for access to the library. It is entirely possible that right of way costs may be multiplied several times based on the possibility of having to return to the HUD program funds expended for non-park purposes. It is estimated that approximately 2z acres of right of way are within lands purchased to date using Federal matching funds. Using an average unit cost of $40,000 per acre, the total amount of possible ineligible expenditures could amount to $100,000.00. Adoption of this route would also require minor modification of the loca- tion of the golf course facilities and the picnic rest area building. Cost of traffic control at the intersections of Goldenwest Street with the access road to the library and at the intersection with Talbert Street is estimated to be approximately $40,000 and is not included in the total cost for this route. If landscaped center islands were included in the construction of this project, the total cost would be increased by approximately $60,000.00. Design engineering, surveying, and construction inspection is estimated at about 15% of construction costs. (See summary section of this report for tabulation of all costs discussed.) III. TALBERT AVENUE - PRESENT ALIGNMENT The previous report discussed the possibility of extending Talbert Avenue westerly of Goldenwest Street by utilizing two forms of elevated roadway to match existing grade with the intersection at Goldenwest Street. Both plans assumed a basic construction cost of $170,000 which was based on new construc- tion (primary arterial standards) from Goldenwest Street westerly a distance of 1,320 feet to join the existing roadway section which presently terminates halfway between Edwards Street and Goldenwest Street. This portion of con- -2- struction was estimated at $90,000 without landscape medians. The portion of the cost between Goldenwest Street and Gothard Street (2,050 lineal feet) was based on widening the existing roadway to arterial highway standards and was estimated to cost $80,000.00. Construction of landscaped center islands would add $25,000 to the total cost and a traffic signal would cost approxi- mately $20,000.00. Again, engineering and inspection is estimated at 15% of construction costs. Route alignment and other information is shown in legend on Exhibit "B". IV. TALBERT AVENUE - PRESENT ALIGNMENT (NEW PROPOSALS) Plan C and Plan D have several design features in common. Both designs incorporate depressed roadway sections with a grade separation at Goldenwest Street and interchange-type design easterly of Goldenwest Street. The main objective being to isolate the appearance of the highway from the park and to reduce sound disturbance. (See Better Roads report in appendix for techni- cal discussion on highway landscape development.) Plan C is depicted on Exhibit C which shows the location of the bridge structures and the connector ramps for both highways. In addition, an architectural rendering labeled Exhibit C, has been produced by the Planning Department at our request showing pictorially how the highway and connector ramps might appear to an observer elevated on the park. (An observer on the ground would not see the highway because of the landform and landscaping.) Figure 1 is a cross section of the depressed roadway. Note that there are two lanes in each direction with landscaped median. The north side is shown as having a parking lane and a sidewalk area. The south side is proposed to have an eight foot shoulder (with rolled curbs) for emergency parking only. The total cost for this alternative has been estimated at $517,000 which -3- Yv�O GOL t�G'N t�V.ffST S7.` , ; Gie�ores�d .4boO�y - �t'1aw�svi:��f$i�inq � .4dc-.ssiratn .�4c�rs! one ,�i�r Qbi��r.... i I i I �7 44 �. I ' ?s TMW om; vor TO Sco% I I 30-70 includes grading, medians and traffic signal control. A complete breakdown of costs are shown in the summary of this report. Plan D This plan incorporates a tunnel structure under Goldenwest Street and under a portion of the park area. The principal advantages of this proposal are that the roadway will be virtually invisible to the park and allow com- plete accessibility to both sides. The disadvantage of this plan is that construction costs are considerably higher than conventional roadway design. It is estimated that the roadway construction costs within the tunnel area would amount to $500 per lineal foot. Assuming that the structure would extend from the east side of Goldenwest Street to a point 800' west, the cost of that portion of the roadway would be approximately $400,000.00. The total cost of the entire project would be in the amount of $595,000 as shown in the report summary. Directing your attention to Exhibits C and D will point out that the access ramps are somewhat encroaching on the southerly tip of the lake. With proper design and construction, this infringement could be held to a minimum. It can be safely stated that if the access ramps are part of the adopted plan, additional study will be required to integrate the circulation of the arterial highways with traffic patterns in the vicinity of the library and parking structure. Plan E This plan is offered as an alternative to the access ramps shown in Exhibits C and D. The plan would involve realigning Goldenwest Street in an easterly direction in order to match design grade and provide a conventional -5- TCU/V/A/,EL S T.�PUC 7'41.Q4-- 1 + i .f • I ' T � 1 ' O. O 1 1 I j TY/-FICA�. SAC T/ON F/GURU_2 type intersection. This design would encroach on the lake to a lesser extent than plans C or D; however, additional study is again needed to coordinate circulation within the library area. Construction costs for this proposal would be approximately the same as the costs for Plans C or D, depending which plan was selected for integration with alternative. Plan F This alternate is designed similar to Plan C; namely, it would utilize a depressed roadway section on Talbert Avenue, a grade separation at Golden- west Street, and access bridges across Talbert Avenue. However, the access ramps have been modified to provide a diamond interchange between highways. The principle advantages of this design are that less area is needed to provide freedom of all traffic movements and the ramps do not encroach on the southerly tip of the lake. The main disadvantages are that the ramps would terminate at grade with Goldenwest Street and left turn movements on Goldenwest Street are restricted within a relatively short distance. The estimated total cost of this plan is approximately $31,000 less than Plan C. The table in the summary section shows that the total cost for this plan is estimated at $564,000.00. V. SUMMARY The purpose of this section is to tabulate all estimates discussed in the various sections of this report. Note that construction figures presented in the previous report are incorporated in the table under various expenditure items. In addition, other expenditure items have been included in order to present a complete picture of possible expenditures and to insure that actual construction costs will not deviate greatly from estimated values. All costs presented in Plans B through E assume new construction from -7- Goldenwest Street to 1,320 feet west of that street and assume that the portion of Talbert Avenue between Goldenwest and Gothard Streets as primarily a widening project to arterial highway standards. -8- REPORT SUMMARY CONSTRUCTION COSTS EXTEND TALBERT EXPENDITURE ITEM REROUTE CONVENTIONAL TALBERT PLAN DESIGN A B C D E F Right of Way* 2009000* --- --- --- --- Roadway 490,000 170,000 170 000 200,000 562 000 --- 200 000 170,000 Median 609000 309000 30,000 30,000 249000 --- 309,000 30 000 Excavation 309000 709000 20,000 709000 20,000 --- 709000 50 000 Traffic Signals 409000 20,000 20,000 30,000 309000 --- 309000 20 000 `O Bridges (Major) --- --- 480,000 70 000 --- --- 709000 Bridges (Minor) --- --- --- 579000 --- --- 57,000 Access Ramps --- --- --- 60.000 60.000 --- 33,000 --- Sub Total 820 000 2909000 720 000 517 000 696.000 --- 490 000 270,000 15' En & Contingencies 123,000 43 000 108 000 78.00 10 000 - 74 000 33 000 Total Estimate 9439000 3339000 828,000 595,000 800 000 %; 564,000 3039000 Length-Feet 7400' 3400' 3400' 3400' 3400' 3400' 3400' 3400' Exhibit A B B C D E F Annual Operating Cost 2,606,0001 2,130,000 12,130',0001 2,130,000 2,130,000 2,130,0001 2,1309000 See Section II for possible additional right of way costs *Approximately $15,000 more than Plan C or D VI. CONCLUSION The importance of Talbert Avenue cannot be overemphasized as an east-west arterial highway. As previously stated in a Planning Commission report, Talbert Avenue will become an important access route from the Bolsa Chica and surround- ing area to the park and central library. It is one of the few east-west arterial highways that extends across the Santa Ana River and also interchanges with the Route 39 and Route 1 Freeways. Any closure or long-distance rerouting of Talbert Avenue should also be considered on an economic basis. The last item on the summary sheet lists the estimated vehicular annual operating costs based on an ultimate traffic volume of 30,000 vehicles per day, vehicular (cars and trucks) operating costs of lOC per mile, driver time value of $3.00 per hour, operating velocity of 50 m.p.h. , and stopping factor costs. A comparison of operating costs between the curved alignment and the straight alignment discloses that it would cost the traveling public an excess of $476,000 per year to use the alignment of Plan A as opposed to the other plans. This excess figure would probably start at 10% of the difference and gradually increase to 100% as traffic volumes reached the projected figure. Needless to say, if Talbert is eliminated com- pletely, the operating cost to the public could be multiplied several times in using alternate routes to their destination. Every effort was made to present designs which are compatible with the intent and mission of Central Park and still provide for the needs of the traveling public. Certainly, the decision regarding Talbert Avenue will be a difficult one; however, consideration of all the facts should produce maximum benefits to the citizens of Huntington Beach and the general public. -10- APPENDIX -11- How highwaylandscape and landform design affects adjacentproperty1 A summary of the research and findings Franklin Institute Research Laboratories developed a program to obtain quantitative engineering and eco- nomic data concerning the effect of landscape/land- Highway Research Program study on the form development on nearby property values and to measure highway disturbances on a sample of high- effects of landscape development and way-adjoining properties in several areas of the United highway disturbances on property values.

" Respectfully submitted, DON P. BONFA City Attorney DPB :bc Attachment t� � ram• M E M 0 R A N D U M GoU�'Giti 7, :,4 TO : Honorable Mayor and City Council _ FROM: Doyle Miller , City Administrator DATE : September 1 , 1970 RE : Central Park Acquisition and Development Program REVIEW The Central Park acquisition program on Phase I and II is proceeding on schedule with trial dates for non-negotiable properties set for the first quarter of 1971 . Trial dates are set due to heavy court schedules although staff continues to negotiate for land based on appraised valuations . A portion of Phase II property has been acquired including a 50 acre parcel northwest of Talbert and Goldenwest and the 10 acre property of Wachs , et al , on Edwards Street. This will provide a total of 205 acres available for primary development by July 1 , 1970. Staff has completed an analysis of available funds for parks capital improvements within a time frame of 5 year master plan implementation. From this analysis emerged a recommend- ation to the Recreation and Parks Commission to proceed with the balance of Phase II and IIIacquisition. Property costs have been of particular concern to negotiators for Central Park property due to the publicity attendant to the project . The city' s success in grant funding has led property owners to expect higher valuations than normal . There are also requests for building permits for both residential and commercial property within the project area that if construc- tion commences , the costs will accrue to the project acquisition process . CONCLUSIONS 1 . Funds are available for matching 50 per cent of Stage II and III acquisition. Grants received to date total $11459 , 941 which were not included in original project budget . 2 . Honorable Mayor and City Council September 1 , 1970 2 . Grant application momentum should continue due to the popularity of the project at the Federal grant level . 3 . During Year I of the original bond program, 15 neighbor- hood parks are under construction or will be completed by the first quarter of the year. Murdy Community Center is out for bid and Central Park Phase I acquisition is nearing completion. 4 . The Recreation and Parks Commission approved the following recommendations at their meeting of August 26 , 1970 . RECOMMENDATIONS 1 . Authorize the filing for acquisition grants for balance of Phase II and III , Huntington Central Park project . 2 . Authorize primary 1971 construction to be increased from 145 acres to 205 acres . 3 . Authorize supplemental schematic design for Phase III grants incorporating uses recommended by Federal grant administrators .

I have examined your application for a grant under Title VII of the Housing Act of 1961, as amended, whereby assistance is requested in -'the acquisition of fee title to certain land known as Huntington Central Park (second phase ) , which land is to be held and used for permanent open-space land for general park and recreation purposes . It is my opinion that the legal name of the City of Huntington Beach, as shown on the application, is correct . I have examined the resolution certified by your recording officer and authorizing the submission of the aforementioned application and I find that it contains the findings and assurances which appear in the Guide Form of Resolution, known as Attachment C to Letter No . OS-5 , Suggested Form of Reso- lution of Applicant Authorizing Filing of Application for Grant to Acquire and Develop Open-space Land, and that the submission of said application and its execution by the official who executed it are fully authorized by your govern- ing body . The City of Huntington Beach has previously received a Federal grant under Title VII of the Housing Act of 1961, as amended, and there have been no material changes in State or local law affecting the validity of its organization or relevant powers and authority since the date of such previous application, and there has been no material change in the status of any pending or threatened litigation. Based upon the foregoing, it is my opinion that the City of Huntington Beach is a public body empowered to receive and ex- pend Federal, State and local funds , to contract with the United States of America for the purpose of receiving a grant under Title VII of the Housing Act of 1961, as amended, and to undertake and complete the proposed acquisition of fee title in the above-described land and, upon such acquisition, ` y .
