Conditional Use Permit No. 97-70 for the establishment, maintenance and operation of the 130, 342 square foot Wal-Mart with a 8,138 square foot garden center along with three other retail/restaurant pads ranging in size from 3,500 to 5,500 square feet will not be detrimental to the general welfare of persons working or residing in the vicinity or detrimental to the value of the property and improvements in the neighborhood. The proposed project meets or exceeds all Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance standards with the exception of the variance for main drive aisle entry design. With the implementation of EIR No. 97-1 mitigation measures, standard City conditions of approval, and site design modifications and revised truck loading/unloading dock location, the potential adverse impacts of the project (other than those addressed in the Statement of Overriding Consideration) have been mitigated to a level of insignificance. Based on the strength of policies in the Economic Development Element of the General Plan and City Council Resolution No. 96-57, the economic benefits of the project outweigh the unavoidable adverse environmental impacts resulting from a loss of open space and the project exceeding local air quality impacts. The revised site layout has eliminated the unavoidable adverse aesthetic/visual impact of the perimeter noise wall. 2. The conditional use permit will be compatible with surrounding uses because with staff s recommended conditions of approval the commercial building and in particular, the loading/unloading and on-site truck circulation will be oriented in manner that is sensitive to surrounding uses. The project also is conditioned to provide a substantial landscape buffer adjacent to the residential uses and to provide a building of high quality architectural design. 3. The proposed 130,342 square foot Wal-Mart with a 8,138 square foot garden center along with three other retail/restaurant pads ranging in size from 3,500 to 5,500 square feet will comply with the provisions of the base district and other applicable provisions in Titles 20-25 of the Huntington Beach Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance and any specific condition required for the proposed use in the district in which it would be located, except for the variance requesting deviation from design standards for the main driveway entrance. The recent relocation of the truck loading/unloading dock reduces the potential vehicular and circulation conflicts associated with the proposed request. (98SR51 j4)—4/5/99 Attachment No. 1.1 4. The granting of the conditional use permit will not adversely affect the General Plan except in areas for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations has been adopted. The project is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of CG-F 1 (General Commercial with a floor area ratio of 0.35) on the subject property. In addition, it is consistent with the goals and policies of the General Plan described in Section 5.0 of the project Environmental Impact Report No. 97-1. FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - VARIANCE NO. 98-18: 1. The granting of Variance No. 98-18 to permit a drive aisle opening along the minimum 100 foot long main driveway entrance from Talbert Avenue where no driveway openings are permitted will not constitute a grant of special privilege inconsistent with limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and under an identical zone classification. Deviations to the main driveway entrance design requirement have been previously granted for large projects when the deviation does not represent a traffic or circulation hazard. 2. Because of special circumstances applicable to the subject property, such as, location or surroundings, the strict application of the zoning ordinance is found to deprive the subject property of privileges enjoyed by other properties in the vicinity and under identical zone classification. The proposed commercial project is surrounded by existing residential uses on two sides. With implementation of staff's recommendation to relocate the truck ' loading/unloading dock, the variance is still necessary but the associated impacts of the project are substantially reduced. 3. The granting of a variance is necessary- to preserve the enjoyment of one or more substantial property rights. The variance to main entry design standards will enable the project to construct a drive aisle and parking stalls conveniently located adjacent to the garden center. 4. The granting of the variance will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to property in the same zone classification. The variance can be supported in conjunction with the redesign and enclosure of the truck loading/unloading docks along Talbert Avenue. The proposed driveway cut within the main entrance serves only a few parking stalls immediately adjacent to the garden center and is not necessary for circulation around the entire building. Circulation around the building shall be limited to emergency vehicle access and can be accomplished through the new driveway cuts established for the enclosed loading docks. 5. The granting of the variance will not adversely affect the General Plan. It is consistent with the Land Use Element designation of CG-F1 (General Commercial with a floor area ratio of 0.35) on the subject property because %%ith the site plan modifications suggested by staff, the driveway opening within the minimum 100 foot deep main project entrance will serve only a few parking stalls and will not create a circulation hazard. (98SR51 j4)—4/5/99 Attachment No. 1.2 FINDINGS FOR APPROVAL - TENTATIVE PARCEL MAP NO. 97-161: 1. Tentative Parcel Map No. 97-161 for subdivision of the subject site into four parcels is consistent with the General Plan Land Use Element designation of CG-F I (General Commercial with a floor area ratio of 0.35) on the subject property except in areas for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations has been adopted. The proposed subdivision meets all development standards established in the HBZSO. 2. The site is physically suitable for the type and density of development proposed except in areas for which a Statement of Overriding Considerations has been adopted. 3. The design of the subdivision or the proposed improvements will not cause serious health problems or substantial environmental damage or substantially and avoidably injure fish or wildlife or their habitat. 4. The design of the subdivision or the type of improvements will not conflict with easements, acquired by the public at large, for access through or use of, property within the proposed subdivision unless alternative easements, for access or for use, will be provided. There are no easements established for access through or use of the subject property by the public. However, recreational use of the property by the general public has been existing on the site , (although not acquired through an easement), and is mitigated through measures identified in EIR No. 97-1. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL—CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT NO. 97-70: 1. The site plan received and dated October 22, 1998 and, floor plans and elevations received and dated August 5, 1998 shall be the conceptually approved layout with the following modifications: a. Revise the site plan by relocating the Wal-Mart building 20 feet west of the currently proposed location depicted on site plan dated October 22, 1998, in order to match the building location analyzed for shade and noise impacts in EIR No. 97-1 (minimum 90 foot setback from residential property line on east side). Other improvements, such as, driveway entrances, parking stalls, and landscaping, shall be shifted west accordingly. b. Revise the site plan to fully screen the truck loading and unloading docks from view of Talbert Avenue by fully enclosing the loading docks and providing a roll up door, as provided at the Cerritos location. The at-grade loading dock shall also be relocated within the enclosed loading area. Landscape berming, screenwalls, and delivery bay enclosures shall be subject to review and approval by the Design Review Board. (98SR51 j4)—4/5/99 Attachment No. 1.3 y. Z c.

Revise the site plan to depict 17 foot by 45 foot turning radius around the building and locked removable bollards across driveway entrances to the turfblock accessway as required by the Fire Department. d. Ultimate design of the truck delivery relocation will be subject to approval by the City of Huntington Beach Public Works and Planning Departments. e. The revised site plan dated October 22, 1998 will also require submittal and approval of a noise study prior to issuance of a building permit to verify that external noise levels as required by Chapter 8.40 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code will be met. An independent noise study shall be conducted at the direction of the City, but at the expense of the applicant and shall be subject to approval by the Planning Director. Deliveries shall be permitted only between the hours of 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM unless the noise study verifies the project's ability to comply with the noise code and does not rely on unusual delivery methods or monitoring by staff. Because the truck loading docks shall be fully enclosed, a maximum eight (8) foot high wall shall be designed along the south and east property lines without reliance on delivery methods that require unusual monitoring by City staff. The eight foot high wall shall be of high quality design and decorative materials to match the building. For example a smooth stucco wall with trim cap or similar approved wall shall be provided. f. Revise the site plan for consistency with the proposed building elevations by accurately depicting the projecting arcades, columns, and overhangs. Revise the site plan to reflect other improvements proposed on the August 5, 1998 site plan including decorative sidewalk(a decorative pattern shall delineate a minimum five (5) foot wide sidewalk along the front of the building),planter pots,tree wells, shrub planters, etc. Revise the site plan to include landscaping within the median area between the drop-off/pick-up area and the parking lot. Revise the site plan to include a 12 foot wide landscape planter adjacent to Talbert Avenue to accommodate the minimum 10 foot wide planter required plus a 2 foot vehicle overhang. Revise the site plan to depict the correct number of parking stalls proposed in the third row of double loaded parking spaces up from the south property line (82 instead of 84 spaces). g. Revise the building elevations by reducing the amount of fascia located beneath the archway elements. (98SR51 j4)—4/5/99 Attachment No. 1.4 J. h.

There is also a description of what is nearby,adjacent, behind,or across from these Memorial Parks. PACIFIC VIEW-NEWP43RT BEACH: surrounded by apartments, a couple of churches, a private school and a private day care.

November 18, 1998 Dear City Council Member, Recently, I spent some time in researching ,what was around, near, behind, across, adjacent, or down the street from Memorial Parks and Cemeteries in some of our surrounding cities. I also did the same for some of the local churches. Could you please take a minute to read over what I found out when I did this reasearching. Could you please see what other cities have done, as they have grown, and have needed more revenue. As you decide the fate of the Good Shepherd Cemetery , and the parish of St. Vincent dePaul, can you see that other cities HAVE NOT PLACED a BIG BOX WALMART, open 24 HOURS, traffic, lights blaring, a pad of 4 fast foods, delivery trucks at all hours, garden centers, tire changing centers......and holiday sale traffic meshing and merging with those who need to attend a funeral or a church service, near their Memorial Parks and their churches. Can you please save the dignity and respect that belongs to Good Shepherd Cemetery by looking to other options for the Crest View School site? Something more appropriate for that comer....a green belt with lower income homes, soccer fields, sports fields, new buildings for the senior citizens, since you are looking to relocate them(remodel the old school buildings), a smaller strip center would be even more appropriate than a large, looming, Wal-Mart. Beach and Talbert is a very unique corner, tax dollars and revenue, should be put aside when you look at this area. There has to be a better idea for this corner, across from Good Shepherd, St. Vincent dePaul Parish, and near homes,than a 24 hour Wal-Mart. There are other areas in Huntington Beach where a Wal-Mart would be more appropriate. Please take into consideration, what I found out about surrounding Memorial Parks and churches, as you make your decision, on what should become of the Crest View School site, that is directly across from the gates, and grounds of our only cemetery, in our town of Huntington Beach, Good Shepherd Cemetery.

I agree with the Planning Commission—a Wal-Mart at Crest View is bad for Huntington Beach. Here are just a few reasons why: ■ Open space in the Crest View area of Huntington Beach falls far short of the city's goal. Once the open space is gone, it will be lost forever. ■ Traffic will be severely, negatively impacted on Beach, Talbert, Ellis, Slater and the surrounding areas. ■ Local Huntington Beach merchants will be hurt and many will be put out of business, despite Wal-Mart's claims to the contrary. Even Wal-Mart doesn't want to be located too close to another Wal-Mart (the Wal-Mart at Beach and 22). ■ Destroying a school in a city with a projected population growth goes contrary to what the citizens voted for - a reduction in class size. We need more schools and open playing fields. ■ Rezoning to Commercial will allow a proposed sex-oriented business to open on Beach Boulevard at Talbert. Huntington Beach Ordinance 5.70.05 states that sex oriented businesses cause "depreciation of property values...increase in vacancies in residential and commercial areas...increases in crime, litter, noise, and vandalism; higher crime rates...and blighting conditions." ■ The proposed revenue from Wal-Mart amounts to 2/1 Oths of 1% of the city budget. Why kill a neighborhood, destroy the local economy, and degrade Beach Boulevard for such an insignificant pay-off'? Let's develop Huntington Center instead. As you enjoy Thanksgiving dinner with your family and friends, please don't forget the Crest View families, or the family of Huntington Beach. We would all like to preserve the quality of life that we are so thankful for here in Huntington Beach. Sincerely, �� a'. tuvbZT: Theresa A. Roberts cc: Shirley Dettloff, Ralph H. Bauer, David P.

My husband and I live in the Crest View neighborhood and will be impacted in many negative ways by this proposal should you as city council members vote for this project. I want to ask you, is a "possible" $200,000.00 worth severely damaging the quality of life not only for all of us in the Crest View neighborhood, but also all HB residents who will inevitably be faced with tremendous gridlock at the intersections of Beach/Talbert, Talbert/Newland and Beach/Ellis. The homes at Seacliff are not even finished and occupied — then what—even worse gridlock? I urge you to speak with Tom Livengood, Chairman of the Planning Commission, concerning his financial analysis which was published in the November 19, 1998 Independent newspaper and in the Wave newspaper. As he states, he has been in the retail business 40 years. All kinds of figures regarding financial gain to the city of Huntington Beach have been presented by staff, Mr. Biggs and Wal Mart. However, the bottom line is that the initial projected gain of$400,000.00 is now CONSIDERABLY LESS. In Area 19 (the Crest View neighborhood) we already have Target and K Mart which have exactly the same type of merchandise as Wal Mart. The net effect of putting a Wal Mart at the Crest View school will only take away business from K Mart and Target, notwithstanding the smaller stores in the area and have a zero profit for the city of HB. This proposed location of the Wal Mart on the Crest View site does not do anything for the residents who live on the west side of town - who will continue to go to Westminster to shop. Remember the sales tax projections for the indoor Swap Meet near McFadden and Graham, or the revenue expected from charging the Frisbee Golfers at Central Park. Did these Huntington Beach City Council Members and Connie Brockway November 25, 1998 Page 2 projections par_ out? The latest Wal Mart sales tax estimate has dwindled to $200,000 (or less). It is curious that this figure is equal to the $200,000/year that the Library receives from room rental fees - $200,000 which is gained without any negative impacts. Crest View School is absolutely the wrong place for a 24 hour Wal Mart store. What we need in Huntington Beach is to first develop the already commercially zoned areas like Edinger corridor/Huntington Mall— which is the logical place to put a big box store such as Wal Mart. Personally I would not have it in my heart to pave over a school with a commercial development, especially when there already are many commercial areas yet to be developed successfully. Our children are in need of and will need that school site with its playing fields. What we need in I3B is higher end type of stores such as Penney's, Broadway, Nordstrom, Robinsons May, etc., etc. —when the Huntington Center had Broadway and Penney's that is where I did my shopping for work clothes, Christmas shopping, etc. — however since both of those stores are no longer in HB, I now shop principally at South Coast Plaza where I can find quality merchandise. If I was asked what I would prefer to see done with the Crest View School, I would say, leave it as is and fix it so that the facilities could be rented out to various groups, schools, churches, etc. and maintain the field space for youth sports - something I'm sure our youth and parents would appreciate tremendously. The school will be needed in the future— already there are schools in the Ocean View District which are filled to capacity. If that would not be the decision, then I would ask that you consider a single family housing development with an area of open space for us all to enjoy. Once again, I say IT IS NOT WORTH DESTROYING AN ENTIRE AREA OF TOWN for a wish and a prayer of$200,000.00. Why on earth is the Crest View neighborhood being played as a "pawn in a chess game"? Hundreds of us have voiced our concerns and still we are just left with"shouting ever louder" in the hopes of being heard. This is not the right place for a 24 hour big box store. Sincerely, Debbie Jos son C1 I r November 30, 1998 1 s Connie Brock-way City Clerk City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Dear Ms. Brockway: I am writing to voice my deep disapproval of the proposed Wal-Mart at the Crest View School site. I like many others have lived in Huntington Beach for many years. It is a city I grew up in and have chosen to raise my children in. I understand the cities desire to increase the sales tax base but not at the expense of the homeowners, businesses and mourners of the local cemetery. The school district has let this location go down the drain. It looks like something that belongs in a very bad neighborhood. I'm sure that is more reason for the citizens and council members to want have a change. I would love to see a park and community center, but I also live in the "real"world. The best compromise for the city, school district and citizens in and around the site is to sell the property to a home developer. This way the school district will receive funds from the sale of the property. The city will receive funds from property tax as well as increased sales tax from the new residents spending more dollars in Huntington Beach. The surrounding neighborhood will benefit from not having the noise, pollution and constant increased traffic as well as getting rid of an "eyesore." Please listen to what your chosen members of the planning commission have recommended. Vote NO on Wal-Mart for the sake of our community.

I am a member of Crest View United. Much has been said about Crest View already, but most importantly we must remain focused on the issue of re-zoning this school property for commercial purposes Crest View School is zoned public/residential and is located in the midst of a residential tract and a cemetery. "Big Box" commercial developments are incompatible with existing surroundinp, land uses of this property. From the conclusions of the EIR we know that a Wal Mart type development would severely impact the quality of life for the Crest View neighborhood. The last bit of open space nearby and the school would be forever lost. Consequently the Plannin Commission voted the project unanimously down. Now we are counting on the City Council to view this re-zoning request with a healthy dose of suspicion. Some of the recent campaign statements are encoura�ri.njZ: Mr. Sullivant is working for the residents of Orange County and not developers and lobbyists. Mr. Bauer wants to preserve the Integrity of our neighborhoods and Ms. Detloff would never sacrifice the Quality of Life to continue a high level of service to the citizens. Apparently we are in good hands here! Over the past two years alone, much energy and money has been wasted to ramrod this Crest View re-zoning down our throats. And mainly because of the unfair tactics of the Tarwater School Board has this issue turned into a bitter conflict of us vs. them. Non of the Crest View residents have ever been consulted in the formulation of a reuse plan for the Crest View School. We are at the end of the road now; we have nowhere else to turn. We are asking the Mayor& members of the City Council to defeat this re-zoning effort once and for all. RECEIVED FROMJSCJJ I" AND MADE A PART OF THE E pR T T 18341 Springtime Lane COUNCIL MEETING OF ` J""'o OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK Huntington Beach, CA 92646 CONNIE BROCKWAY,CITY CLERK Connie Brockway, City Clerk City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Subject: Proposed Wal-Mart Project at Crest View Site Dear Ms. Brockway: As a homeowner who resides in the immediate vicinity of the proposed Wal-Mart Project for the past 26 years, I am writing to oppose this project. My opposition is for numerous reasons: • The impact that this project will have on the residents in the neighboring area and the residential quality of life issues such as additional traffic, noise, safety, air quality, drainage, and the loss of open space have been underestimated. The Good Shepherd Cemetery, is located immediately to the North of the proposed site and currently has an average of 12 burials per week that include solemn rites at the grave side with clergy and often a substantial number of mourners. There is a need to maintain the dignity and solemnity of the religious services and avoid additional intrusion on those activities. • Revenue. Of course this is very important to any city, however, diverted sales tax does not increase revenue to the city. The Huntington Beach Library generates $200,000 in revenue from renting out its meeting rooms with no negative impact to the City. While Wal- Mart will generate approximately the same amount of money with negatives to the community and the City. The Sales Tax leakage will not be helped by Wal-Mart. It appears that the City of Huntington Beach would be facing a high risk with the addition of a Wal-Mart at the Crest View site, due to the close proximity in the "Primary Market". The ability to attract enough customers from this area as well as other parts of the city, especially outside the "Primary Market" will not happen. People living in the Harbor, the North end, and West side of the city will not travel to Talbert to shop at a Wal-Mart. • The loss of open space. We do not have a park or place where we can take our children/grandchildren to play in the area that is easily accessible. The loss of 9.8 acres of open space suitable for playing fields in a city with a shortage of youth facilities is a real concern. During the last election the incumbents seemed concerned about youth and the need to develop playing sites for these groups. The General Plan projects the City's population will increase 40,000 in 20 years. There will be even more outcries for Youth Sports field and schools from residents of the city. • Quality shopping. Our city lacks quality shopping centers for us to spend our money. Instead, we are forced to continue to go to neighboring cities such as Costa Mesa and Newport Beach to buy quality merchandise. Wal-Mart will not capture the Sales Tax leakage. • Wal-Mart locations. Since 1995, Wal-Mart has opened stores in Orange County (Anaheim, Brea, Foothill Ranch, Laguna Niguel, Santa Ana, & Westminster). According to the latest report of the FBI; Department of Justice; populations figures from State Department of Finance, Laguna Niguel has had an increase of total crime of 21.4%. It is important to remember that those of us that live on the East side of Beach Blvd. are also residents of the City of Huntington Beach and deserve the same quality of life and representation as those residents that live in the Harbor and the West side of Beach Blvd. I have spoken to many citizens from all parts of the city and have not found 1 person who would shop or want a Wal-Mart at the Crest View site. I hope that you will concur with the Planning Commission and realize that the Crest View site is the wrong place for a commercial store of the magnitude of a Wal-Mart. Thank you for your consideration.

These facts sheets have been disseminated to our community members in order to keep them informed regarding the potential commercial development of the Crest View site. Ocean View has been pursuing this project since 1995, and it has been our practice to update our community members through various avenues, including press releases, general public meetings, and correspondence. Ocean View has been working in concert with the City of Huntington Beach since the inception of this project. On September 9, 1996, prior to the entitlement process, the City identified Crest View as a potential retail development site. Further, the City encouraged the District to select a tenant that will provide the highest possible sales tax in order to meet the needs of the majority population. Ocean View is in alignment with this goal. It is inherent upon our School District Board of Trustees and Administrators to pursue revenue sources that will maintain necessary services to all our students, and community members at large. The District now has twenty-four school sites (fifteen open and nine closed). All of these schools are now more than twenty-five years old, and require facility improvements such as heating, air conditioning, fields, paint, blacktop, playground equipment, locker rooms, bathrooms, etc. Ocean View has an obligation to keep these facilities safe and in good repair in order to promote a positive learning environment. Currently, we lease six school sites which provide a gross income of approximately $970,000. Monies derived from these leases are limited to deferred maintenance and capital improvement projects; by law, these funds cannot be used for students programs, nor can they be used for staff or salary increases. Crest View/Wal-Mart Project -2- December 2, 1998 An Asset Management Committee, comprising parents, educators, and local business persons, determined that two of Ocean View's school sites were appropriate for commercial development: Crest View and Rancho View. The potential development of these sites as commercial sites would provide the District an income strearl of starting at $800,000 per year. Ocean View is using one closed school site as a District office. However, with six remaining closed school sites, Ocean View is in an envious and excellent position to meet any future enrollment increases. Currently the District is growing al- a rate of 2 percent per year. The present statistics on Crest View are as follows: • Closed since 1992 • A mobility rate - 33% • Projected enrollment through year 2004 - 175 students; average school in District - 650 students • 84 of Crest View's 175 students live west of Beach Blvd. and would remain at Hope View School for safety/transportation reasons The goal of the Ocean View Trustees and its Administrators is to maintain and improve the quality of life for all our children, parents, and business owners. In an ideal world, decisions could be made based on individual needs, but the District has a moral and fiduciary responsibility to prioritize the needs of its majority population. We must continue to expand our programs for students, and to safeguard our facilities. Community needs are just as great, ranging from health and safety concerns to the recreational (parks, fields, sport programs). The District has carefully considered the City's need for reuse of school sites for recreational open spaces. Attached you will find a table detailing the active and passive field acreage Ocean View makes available for use by the City's residents. We have dedicated 174 acres of school property for youth sport programs and 33 acres for park use. Most districts have sold their surplus sites in order to secure income for facility improvements. Ocean View does not wish to pursue this approach because of the devastating results that would ensue for open space and youth sports activities. The decisions made by the: Ocean View Board of Trustees and its Administrators are govuned by what's best for our kids. We appreciate our partnership with the City, and share your vision for promoting Huntington Beach as a town dedicated to obtaining what's best for its community members. Sincerely, ames R.

November 5, 1998 SUBJECT: CREST VIEW/WAL-MART PROJECT Parents of Ocean View School District: As you know, Ocean View will be asking the Huntington Beach City Council to approve the development of the Crest View site as a Wal-Mart. The long term lease of this site will provide a total income to the District of $400,000 per year base rent and will allow Ocean View to continue to provide quality educational services for its 9,865 school children. We hope you will take a minute to look at the enclosed copy of an agenda item that I presented to the Board of Trustees at a regular monthly meeting. It answers the questions that are asked most frequently about the proposed development of the Crest View site. In 1990, a Master Planning Committee/Committee of Eleven was convened. The Master Planning Committee was then subdivided into an Integration/Reconfiguration Committee. Members of both Committees consisted of parents, community members, educators, local business persons, and administrators. The two Committees were charged with the responsibility of examining and correcting any imbalance of the ethnic ratio at our schools and at the same time, reconfiguring Ocean View's K-8 schools to K-5/6-8 schools. That meant some schools would be closed and students would be reassigned. Using specific criteria for determining school closures, the Committee recommended that Crest View be closed. On May 19, 1992, Crest View was officially declared surplus property for lease or sale by the adoption of Resolution No. 12:9192 by the Board of Trustees. Closure was based on priorities such as: student safety, enrollment, school plant, geographic consideration, financial savings, transportation, value of the site, and student population growth. Those determiners have not changed. It would cost approximately $2.5 million to reopen Crest, not a cost-effective plan, based on current and projected enrollment data. Crest View/ Page 2 Wal-Mart Project With higher costs and limited dollars, districts find they must cut costs to balance the budget each year. Many of the costs of operating the school district are beyond its control. Utilities are a good example. Those rates must be paid regardless of how much they increase. The cost of transporting students to and from school each day has been an ever increasing cost. School districts must either reduce the amount of transportation or divert money from other programs to pay for the increase. Further, the process of budgeting for facility improvements for California schools has been established by laws passed by the Federal Government, the California Legislature and through procedures determined by the California Department of Education. The Real Property Asset Management Committee/Community Budget Advisory Committee, also composed of parents, community members, educators, local business persons, and administrators, began the process of looking for developers and pursuing long term ground lease options. More than seventy meetings took place from 1990 - 1998 regarding the Crest View site. These were open to the public, for comments, or observation, or both. Students are not only entitled to an excellent education, but also safe, secure, and inviting environments. My major effart is to see that we not only maintain an outstanding school system, but that we continue to improve our facilities where necessary. I am convinced that in order to do so we must follow an intelligent long-range plan to avoid budget cuts that only provide short term "nickel and dime" solutions.

Initially I was neutral about the development of this location into a WalMart store. However several days ago while driving by the school yard I observed a father playing with his 3 children. This reminded me of the numerous times I brought my now grown children to play on the basketball courts or on the large open field. I realized how important this area is to our neighborhood and to my children's children. Crest View is the only useable open space bordered by Beach Blvd., Talbert St., Newland St., and Ellis St. As such it is the only accessible open space available to the children (families)of this area of the city without the use of a car. Even the Ocean View high school soccer team practiced there during the construction of the Home Depot store. This area is too residentially oriented to have this only open space replaced by a WalMart store. As a law enforcement officer with over 30 years experience I say the value of this space for kids to play ball, etc., can not be forever sacrificed for the convenience of a large retail store and tax revenue. !S�tncerely, Frederick L.

I live at 8402 Tradewind Circle, near the proposed Wal-Mart site at Talbert and Beach. I strongly believe that the Crest View site should not be rezoned for a Wal-Mart or any other commercial development. There are numerous reasons why I feel this way, a few of which I will list: 1. Increased noise and air pollution for my family and the population surrounding the site. 2. Increased traffic on a street which is largely residential and which dead-ends on one side at the public library. 3. Competition from existing stores in the area. 4. Loss of property values to the surrounding homes. The Planning Commission has voted to reject rezoning of Crest View. Tom Livengood has stated that the proposed tax revenue would actually be lower than anticipated. The Commission had spent a great amount of time studying this proposal and said no. Does this not show that this is not a good idea? I've been told that letters that have reached your council in favor of this development were signed at Wal-Marts in the area. If this is true, than the letters are most likely from uninformed individuals. My wife Marianne and I bought our home in 1989. We liked the location because it was a quiet neighborhood and the surrounding streets were not as impacted as others we had looked at. Our quality of life is very important to us, as I am sure yours is too. Please put yourself in our place. Would you entertain this idea if it was in your backyard? Please vote NO for rezoning. Sincerely, Scott Biedermann 8402 Tradewind Circle Huntington Beach 714-847-2128 WAL*MART' Raw October 9, 1998 - Huntington Beach City Council 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA92648 Dear City Council, 1 have been following the coverage of local newspapers about the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store. While reading the comments of local residents and newspaper editors, I realize there are some general misconceptions about Wal-Mart. As a Wal-Mart department manager I feel that I am qualified to speak to these issues. Wal-Mart has made a real impact on California, in a very positive way. Last year California Wal- Mart stores donated over$3.9 million to environmental programs, scholarships, many non-profit organizations and schools. In regard to the latter, for some students this means the difference between being able to attend college or not, or being able to go on that educational field trip that they might not have otherwise had the opportunity. Some schools use their funds for campus beautification while others use their funds to purchase books for their library. The list goes on and on. I have been fortunate enough to meet some of the students and organizations that come to the store and receive these grants and donations. If you could see their faces you would feel the same way I do. Let's say though, that this isn't enough to convince you. Wal-Mart benefits California in more ways than one. Last year, Wal-Mart spent over $3.5 billion with California vendors and suppliers, evidence of its commitment to supporting local economies. Clearly, this would continue with the Huntington Beach store. In 1997, Wal-Mart contributed $54.7 million in total state and local taxes; sales taxes collected totaled $311.9 million. Clearly, Wal-Mart is good for California and good for Huntington Beach. Sincerely, John Martinez 6442 lroquios Road Westminster, CA 92683 .�- Department Manager Wal-Mart ATTHCRM,L NT Page 2 • True to Wal-Mart's community involvement philosophy, associates factor very prominently in environmental efforts. Wal-Mart associates are very active in adopt-a- highway/beach programs, and teaming up with other members of the community to clean up local streets, highways and waterfronts. Wal-Mart demonstrates its commitment to the environment by providing programs such as: Environmental Grants, Environmental School Grants, Earth Day Events, recycling store materials and building stores to be more energy efficient. This is just a quick overview of the five integral areas that Wal-Mart is concerned with. If a Wal-Mart were to be opened in Huntington Beach, Wal-Mart would continue to be sensitive to the needs of the Huntington Beach community as they are in all other communities. Thank you for your time and consideration of these many important issues that face our neighborhoods today. incerely, Vivian J.

Wal-Mart's community involvement goes above and beyond many other local retailers. It consists of five integral areas: good neighbor programs, our children, education, economic health and the environment. • Our good neighbor programs encourage our hundreds of thousands of associates annually to play an important part in their local communities. United Way, Community Matching Grants, the Holiday Charity Program, the Helen Walton Community Involvement Award and the Volunteerism Always Pays program are just a few of the ways that Wal-Mart demonstrates its commitment to local neighborhoods. • As part of an ongoing commitment to keeping children safe and healthy, Wal-Mart supports a number of child-orientated programs. Wal-Mart is the largest corporate sponsor of Children's Miracle Network and on a daily basis they are involved with Missing Children's Network. Code Adam is a program that began to protect children from abduction inside their stores and is one of the nation's largest child safety programs. • Wal-Mart recognizes the profound impact education can have and invests in the future success of America through a variety of education awards and scholarship programs. The Sam Walton Community Scholarship is a program where $1,000 college scholarships are made available to local high school seniors everywhere a Wal-Mart store is located. The Competitive Edge Scholarship Fund pays $20,000 over four years. With the annual Teacher of the Year Award, each Wal-Mart store picks a deserving teacher and awards $500 for us in the classroom. This list goes on and on. • Wal-Mart is also very concerned with economic health. As one of the nation's largest corporations, Wal-Mart recognizes its responsibility as a leader in supporting American industry, and creating and protecting American jobs. The Sam Walton Business Leader Award honors a local businessperson who best represents quality customer service, respect for the individual and commitment to excellence. With that, $500 is donated to the local Chamber of commerce in the winner's name. The American Hometown Leadership Award and the Minority & Women-Owned Business Development Program are just some of the other programs that Wal-Mart offers to stimulate economic development. vfli'v��l � 1 1 2•✓. WAL*MART' Rfw October 14, 1998 City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Dear City of Huntington Beach, hope you are considering the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store in a positive light. Wal-Mart has always believed that grass-roots efforts are the best way to help the communities they serve by each of its 2,700 stores. That is why Wal-Mart focuses on forming special relationships with their customers and neighbors to roll up our sleeves and get to work-together-on Issues that count. We encourage charitable organizations seeking our involvement to begin with their local Wal-Mart, to invite associates to participate In local projects, and perhaps to eventually join in fundraising efforts that qualify for matching corporate funds. We know that community service is much more than writing a check. It's getting involved and making a difference, every day of the week. We haven't forgotten what is important to the people who live near our stores. After all, we live here too.

Each of the managers, Chief Financial Officers and Real Estate Officers I spoke with had not heard of the RFIR, had not been contacted regarding the report, and were not aware that their stores were being referenced/sourced in it. When asked about the impact the proposed Wal-Mart might have on sales, most of the businesses stated that they did not believe business would be negatively impacted. Here are just a few of the comments I received: Andy Koehler, manager of the Orange Big S Sporting Goods, said that his store sells different items than Wal-Mart does and that having a Wal-Mart so dose to his store has actually increased his sales. "If anything,Wal-Mart has benefitted my store,"said Koehler, "And you can quote me because I would tell it to anyone that walked in the store." Joe Imbragulio at Strouds corporate offices said that he doesn't object to having a Wal-Mart store built in Huntington Beach, even though there is a Strouds just one mile up the street. Joe felt that the proposed store would not negatively impact his store. Many members of management that I spoke with felt that Wal-Mart would not negatively impact them due to the fact that they sell very different/non-competing items. They said that they have very loyal client bases and do not forsee declines in sales. One of the managers was surprised that his store's name was used in the RFIR since their corporate office never authorizes its use for such purposes. Management overall, at the stores I contacted,were glad to refer me to other stores located near a Wal-Mart and to their corporate offices to get specific information. Thanks!April JAMES R GALLAGHER � 21562 Kaneohe Lane Huntington Beach, CA 92646 Oct 30, 1998 Shirley Dettloff, Mayor City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach CA 92648 Dear Shirley Sylvia and I urge.you to disregard the recommendation of the Planning Commission about not giving WalMart a building permit for their proposed store at Talbert and Beach. We both think that a WalMart store should be built in Huntington Beach for the following reasons: 1. While it is true that some citizens in the area will be impacted by the store adjoining their property, the vast majority of people in Huntington Beach and nearby surrounding cities will have a store nearby that carries a very extensive line of merchandise at very reasonable prices. We travel several months of the year and when in strange towns the always seek out a WalMart store because we know their selection of merchandise is enormous and that we will get excellent value there for our money. Retired people and people living near the poverty level need a store like Walmart to make their money go farther. 2. The city's sales tax income from such a store would be very substantial and will help the city keep solvent_ We have always regretted that a Price Club store was not approved and built in Huntington Beach. Now we find it very inconvenient for us to drive over to the far side of Fountain Valley to shop at Price Club. And think of the thousands of sales tax dollars from us Fluntington Beachers that Fountain Valley is now getting instead of going into our city coffers. �. We are people who like to get up early in the morning and get started early. Having a store like WalMart that would be open very early in the morning would be a godsend to those of us Nvho like to get started early. Now when we find we need something early in the morning eve have to wait around to 9:00 or 10:00 for some store to open--and after shopping, the day is half shot for us. 4. You know that Sylvia and I are hardcore environmentalists, but we also know full well that progress will come to Huntington Beach whether we like it or not. The proposed site is adjoining businesses now operating on Beach Blvd. and thus will not impact as many people as building on other sites in Huntington Beach might. And surely the store could be positioned on the site to have the loading dock next to Talbert and away from the adjoining residences. Further, we think that a poll of people living within a couple of miles of the proposed WalMart would find that a large majority of residents would welcome a store there. Shirley, we urge you to vote to allow WalMart to build at the Talbert and Beach site if no better site can be found in Huntington Beach. We hate to think that Huntington Beach might lose a WalMart store when we have a good chance to get one. Sincerely Ja es R. Gallagher Sylvia R.

A lot of us are not paid union scale wages or benefits and we are on ':budgets. Cur utility bills alone have escalated with new taxes, su;^charges, new trash and recycling fees that I think could have been curtailed if we had had the foresight to encourage businesses to settle mere instead of promoting the bedroom cocimu_nity we now :nave. I well remember how we failed with Price Club via our nneandering and 'haggling and now Fountain Valley is reapinS the bootie. The question is : do we or do we not want the 4.00,000 or so dollars in sales tax in our coffers or not? I for one will shop Vial-Mart whether it be in Westminster, Fountain Valley or our own Huntington Beach. Parks and unused schools do not generate income: Wal-hart is knocking at our door and if we don't answer, someone else surly will.

The initiatives aim to create a diverse environment that supports, utilizes and values the full potential of all associates. if - Francesca Spinelli - Vice President, Organizational Development Straight Talk about Wal-Mart's Local Impact As a Huntington Beach community leader,you may be approached by some residents who have heard that a Wal-Mart store can harm the local business district, create traffic problems, and even increase crime. These are the facts: • Research studying the:local economic impact of a Wal-Mart store typically shows that total retail sales grow after a Wal-Mart store opus —which benefits the local tax base. This is the result of the Wal- Mart store attracting shoppers from the outlying area.These reports also find that businesses which do not compete head-to-head with the Wal-Mart store benefit from the larger number of shoppers that Wal-Mart brings into the town. • Wal-Mart hires 100 to 500 area residents to operate the store, depending on the size of the store. (Usually 70 percent of them are full-time associates.) This infusion of new payroll is spent by Wal- Mart associates at other local businesses, creating a ripple effect. The Wal-Mart store itself is a consumer of local banking,janitorial, security and other services. • A Wal-Mart job is not a"minimum wage job." Wal-Mart always pays above minimum wage with a pay scale that is competitive to the local retail market. Both full-time and part-time associates are eligible for benefits. For career-minded individuals,the company offers more opportunities fo advance than any other retailer. About 60 percent of Wal-Mart's management staff started with the company as hourly associates. • Wal-Mart recognizes that giving back to the community is not only the right thing to do--it's good business. When a Wal-Mart store participates in a fundraising drive for a local nonprofit cause, it can access a matching grant from the Wal-Mart Foundation. Every store also can apply for a Wal-Mart Economic Development Grant to assist the community in projects that attract new employers. Wal- Mart stores also partner with local schools and the Chamber of Commerce to honor a Teacher of the Year and an exceptional business leader. The grand opening of a Wal-Mart store always includes donations to local worthy causes. • Wal-Mart stores are safe. The store provides its own in-store security and does not allow loitering in the parking lot. Surveillance cameras deter criminals. Money transported from the store to the bank is guarded by a local security agency. Hundreds of Wal-Mart stores now patrol their parking lots with golf carts that further deter crime. These voluntary measures greatly reduce the burden on the police department. • The increase in traffic generated by a Wal-Mart store can benefit nearby stores and restaurants,but it must not come at the expense of public safety. Wal-Mart works with local and state governments to resolve traffic issues and ensure that customers can safely enter and exit the parking lot. In some communities,there have been some residents or local merchants who have expressed concerns and fears about Wal-Mart coming to their town. But a year after the store opens, local newspapers typically report that those fears never materialized. Wal-Mart stores are an asset to the community. Local tax revenue increases. The Wal-Mart store contributes to local schools and other worthy causes. The Main Street business district adjusts. The"net"is positive for the community. Ate" I rt �r11T h1 0. 1 �-� _� Excerpts from Studies on Wal-Marys Local Impact "The entry of Wal-Mart does not bring automatic devastation to a local retail economy. In most areas, retailers did experience a short term drop in sales, but then a return to previous levels. In many cases, there was an increase in retail activity,because a Wal- Mart store has such a large geographic trade area, that many towns experienced an expansion of their retail trade area." -- "Economic&Fiscal Impact Analysis, Proposed Wal-Mart Store, Woodlanc, California,"pg. S, 1992, Economics Strategies Group. "There is no evidence that Wal-Mart has a negative impact on the economy of rural communities. While the data showed that many of the counties had economic indicators describing decline or stagnation before the advent of Wal-Mart, almost all showed growth or revitalization after the opening of Wal-Mart." — "Effect of Wal-Mart Stores on Economic Environment of Rural Communities,pg. 1, 1989, College of Business and Public Administration, University ofMissouri, Columbia,Missouri. "Personal income, per capita income, wages and salaries, non-wage income, and'non- - farm proprietors income in both current and constant dollars increased in every county studied after the entry of Wal-Mart to the market." -- "Effect of Wal-Mart Stores on Economic Environment of Rural Communities,pg. 1, 1989, College ofBusiness and Public Administration, University ofMissouri, Columbia,Missouri. "Wal-Mart has had significant positive effect on sales tax revenues for each community. A town's market share usually improves after the opening of a Wal-Mart further benefiting sales tax revenues." — "Effect of Wal Mart Stores on Economic Environment of Rural Communities,pg. 1, 1989, College ofBusiness and Public Administration, University ofMissouri, Columbia,Missouri. "Earlier studies have shown that sales, employment and personal incomes increase in towns where a Wal-Mart is located. From our work, the governing mechanism appears to be the power of the draw. Wal-Mart grows their trade areas, for the longer a Wal-Mart existed in a county, the more positive the impact on economic indicators. Counties with Wal-Mart stores which have been open for the longer periods tend to compare very favorable on growth rates when state and non Wal-Mart rural areas are examined." --"Five Wal-Mart Case Studies, "pg. 1, 1994, John Winter Associate Limited "We found that when the area of retail influence increases, • More money becomes available and is oriented to the communities. • Commercial concentrations within the communities have a chance to increase their sales as a result of the new customers traveling to these case study communities." -- "Five Wal-Mart Case Studies,"pg. 2, 1994, John Winter Associate Limited.

New Jobs: The new Wal-Mart will generate approximately 300 new jobs in the City of Huntington Beach about 70% will be full-time positions with benefits including stock options and medical an( dental insurance. Estimated Revenues: Recent economic impact surveys indicate that the new store will generate between $400,000 $450,000 in sales tax revenues for the City of Huntington Beach, monies that can be used tc support city services (such as the police and fire departments) and parks and recreation Currently,the City of Huntington Beach loses approximately $214 million in retail sales "leakage' to other cities, dollars that the new Wal-Mart will help to keep in town. School Revenues: The new Wal-Mart will generate much-needed funds for the Ocean View School District. It will help the district modernize its 30-year-old school facilities by improving the heating, air conditioning, roofs, and classroom technology used by Huntington Beach students. Community First: Every Wal-Mart is committed to supporting the community it serves. Your neighborhood Wal Mart does this through internal fundraising activities; educational scholarships; the Wal-Mar Foundation Matching Grant Program; environmental grants and more. in 1997, Wal-Mart store raised more than $102 million for their local communities. Hours of Operation: The new store is expected to be open daily from 7 a.m, to 11 p.m., a schedule shared by other Orange County Wal-Mart stores. Like other retailers, Wal-Mart likes to retain the option to operate on a 24-hour basis. Truck Deliveries: Wal-Mart plans to put the loading dock on the north side of the store, away from residents and so that trucks will not be allowed to drive around the building to make a delivery. Wal-Mart stores typically receive two truck deliveries per day. Deliveries are fast and quiet compared to many other retailers: each Wal-Mart trailer is quickly detached and sealed to the building, where it is unloaded inside. Noise Mitigation: The project plans that an 8' high screen wall will be constructed for the south and east sides of the property, along with wing walls that will be built at the loading dock area, will keep noise levels within the City's noise ordinance requirements. Aesthetics: Wal-Mart plans to install a greenbelt which will run the length of the 8' high screen walls. To restrict trucking, grass pavers (or the equivalent) will be used behind the building, instead of solid asphalt. Quality Jobs: The nation's largest private employer, Wal-Mart is frequently cited in surveys as one of the best companies to work for. The company is among the few companies in America where a// associates can qualify for medical benefits, stock options, and bonuses. Wal-Mart believes in jobs with a future: approximately 60% of all Wal-Mart store managers advanced from hourly associate positions.

I also did the same for some of the local churches. Could you please take a minute to read over what I found out when I did this reasearching. Could you please see what other cities have done, as they have grown, and have needed more revenue. As you decide the fate of the Good Shepherd Cemetery , and the parish of St. Vincent dePaul, can you see that other cities HAVE NOT PLACED a BIG BOX WALMART, open 24 HOURS, traffic, lights blaring, a pad of 4 fast foods, delivery trucks at all hours, garden centers, tire changing centers......and holiday sale traffic meshing and merging with those who need to attend a funeral or a church service, near their Memorial Parks and their churches. Can you please save the dignity and respect that belongs to Good Shepherd Cemetery by looking to other options for the Crest View School site? Something more appropriate for that comer....a green belt with lower income homes, soccer fields, sports fields, new buildings for the senior citizens, since you are looking to relocate them (remodel the old school buildings), a smaller strip center would be even more appropriate than a large, looming, Wal-Mart. Beach and Talbert is a very unique corner, tax dollars and revenue, should be put aside when you look at this area. There has to be a better idea for this comer, across from Good Shepherd, St. Vincent dePaul Parish, and near homes,than a 24 hour Wal-Mart. There are other areas in Huntington Beach where a Wal-Mart would be more appropriate. Please take into consideration, what I found out about surrounding Memorial Parks and churches, as you make your decision, on what should become of the Crest View School site, that is directly across from the gates, and grounds of our only cemetery, in our town of Huntington Beach, Good Shepherd Cemetery. Thank You, Catherine Bridges The following is a list of Memorial Parks from some of our surrounding communities and cities. There is also a description of what is nearby,adjacent, behind, or across from these Memorial Parks. PACIFIC VIEW-NEWPORT BEACH: surrounded by apartments, a couple of churches, a private school and a private day care. WESTMINSTER MEMORIAL PARK-WESTMINSTER: across from it on Beach Blvd. are some small businesses, homes, St. Patricks Seminary, and a senior citizen housing building are on another side, and then there is a very small lumber company at one side.

I agree with the Planning Commission—a Wal-Mart at Crest View is bad for Huntington Beach. Here are just a few reasons why: ■ Open space in the Crest View area of Huntington Beach falls far short of the city's goal. Once the open space is gone, it will be lost forever. ■ Traffic will be severely, negatively impacted on Beach, Talbert, Ellis, Slater and the surrounding areas. ■ Local Huntington Beach merchants will be hurt and many will be put out of business, despite Wal-Mart's claims to the contrary. Even Wal-Mart doesn't want to be located too close to another Wal-Mart (the Wal-Mart at Beach and 22). ■ Destroying a school in a city with a projected population growth goes contrary to what the citizens voted for- a reduction in class size. We need more schools and open playing fields. ■ Rezoning to Commercial will allow a proposed sex-oriented business to open on Beach Boulevard at Talbert. Huntington Beach Ordinance 5.70.05 states that sex oriented businesses cause "depreciation of property values...increase in vacancies in residential and commercial areas...increases in crime, litter, noise, and vandalism; higher crime rates...and blighting conditions." • The proposed revenue from Wal-Mart amounts to 2/10ths of 1%of the city budget. Why kill a neighborhood, destroy the local economy, and degrade Beach Boulevard for such an insignificant pay-off? Let's develop Huntington Center instead. As you enjoy Thanksgiving dinner with your family and friends, please don't forget the Crest View families, or the family of Huntington Beach. We would all like to preserve the quality of life that we are so thankful for here in Huntington Beach. Sincerely, Theresa A. Roberts cc: Shirley Dettloff, Ralph H. Bauer, David P.

CA 19% NOV 3 0 A, 11: S to Huntington Beach City Council Members Ralph Bauer, Shirley Dettloff, Dave Garofalo, Peter Green, Tom Harman, Pam Julien, Dave Sullivan - and - Connie Brockway City Clerk 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Re: Crest View School and Wal Mart Dear Council Members and Ms. Brockway: I am writing to express my opposition to Wal Mart at Crest View School. My husband and I live in the Crest View neighborhood and will be impacted in many negative ways by this proposal should you as city council members vote for this project. I want to ask you, is a"possible" $200,000.00 worth severely damaging the quality of f life not only for all of us in the Crest View neighborhood, but also all HB residents who will inevitably be faced with tremendous gridlock at the intersections of Beach/Talbert, Talbert/Newland and Beach/Ellis. The homes at Seacliff are not even finished and occupied— then what—even worse gridlock? I urge you to speak with Tom Livengood, Chairman of the Planning Commission, concerning his financial analysis which was published in the November 19, 1998 Independent newspaper and in the Wave newspaper. As he states, he has been in the retail business 40 years. All kinds of figures regarding financial gain to the city of Huntington Beach have been presented by staff, Mr. Biggs and Wal Mart. However, the bottom line is that the initial projected gain of$400,000.00 is now CONSIDERABLY LESS. In Area 19 (the Crest View neighborhood) we already have Target and K Mart which have exactly the same type of merchandise as Wal Mart. The net effect of putting a Wal Mart at the Crest View school will only take away business from K Mart and Target, notwithstanding the smaller stores in the area and have a zero profit for the city of HB. This proposed location of the Wal Mart on the Crest View site does not do anything for the residents who live on the west side of town- who will continue to go to Westminster to shop. Remember the sales tax projections for the indoor Swap Meet near McFadden and Graham, or the revenue expected from charging the Frisbee Golfers at Central Park. Did these 'At ;... Huntington Beach City Council Members and Connie Brockway November 25, 1998 Page 2 projections pan out? The latest Wal Mart sales tax estimate has dwindled to $200,000 (or less). It is curious that this figure is equal to the $200,000/year that the Library receives from room rental fees - $200,000 which is gained without any negative impacts. Crest View School is absolutely the wrong place for a 24 hour Wal Mart store. What we need in Huntington Beach is to first develop the already commercially zoned areas like Edinger corridor/Huntington Mall— which is the logical place to put a big box store such as Wal Mart. Personally I would not have it in my heart to pave over a school with a commercial development, especially when there already are many commercial areas yet to be developed successfully. Our children are in need of and will need that school site with its playing fields. What we need in HB is higher end type of stores such as Penney's, Broadway, Nordstrom, Robinsons May, etc., etc. — when the Huntington Center had Broadway and Penney's that is where I did my shopping for work clothes, Christmas shopping, etc. —however since both of those stores are no longer in HB, I now shop principally at South Coast Plaza where I can find quality merchandise. If I was asked what I would prefer to see done with the Crest View School, I would say, leave it as is and fix it so that the facilities could be rented out to various groups, schools, churches, etc. and maintain the field space for youth sports - something I'm sure our youth and parents would appreciate tremendously. The school will be needed in the future— already there are schools in the Ocean View District which are filled to capacity. If that would not be the decision, then I would ask that you consider a single family housing development with an area of open space for us all to enjoy. Once again, I say IT IS NOT WORTH DESTROYING AN ENTIRE AREA OF TOWN for a wish and a prayer of$200,000.00. Why on earth is the Crest View neighborhood being played as a"pawn in a chess game"? Hundreds of us have voiced our concerns and still we are just left with "shouting ever louder" in the hopes of being heard. This is not the fight place for a 24 hour big box store. Sincerely, Debbie Jos son RECE,y C1TY OF November 30, 1998 GTG,� !;��iC`�. Cq Connie Brockway City Clerk City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Dear Ms. Brockway: I am writing to voice my deep disapproval of the proposed Wal-Mart at the Crest View School site. I like many others have lived in Huntington Beach for many years. It is a city I grew up in and have chosen to raise my children in. I understand the cities desire to increase the sales tax base but not at the expense of the homeowners, businesses and mourners of the local cemetery. The school district has let this location go down the drain. It looks like something that belongs in a very bad neighborhood. I'm sure that is more reason for the citizens and council members to want have a change. I would love to see a park and community center, but I also live in the"real"world. The best compromise for the city, school district and citizens in and around the site is to sell the property to a home developer. This way the school district will receive funds from the sale of the property. The city will receive funds from property tax as well as increased sales tax from the new residents spending more dollars in Huntington Beach. The surrounding neighborhood will benefit from not having the noise, pollution and constant increased traffic as well as getting rid of an "eyesore." Please listen to what your chosen members of the planning commission have recommended. Vote NO on Wal-Mart for the sake of our community.

Much has been said about Crest View already, but most importantly we must remain focused on the issue of re-zoning this school property for commercial purposes. Crest View School is zoned public/residential and is located in the midst of a residential tract and a cemetery. `Big Box" commercial developments are incompatible with existing surrounding land uses of this property. From the conclusions of the EIR we know that a Wal Mart type development would severely impact the quality of life for the Crest View neighborhood. The last bit of open space nearby and the school would be forever lost. Consequently the Planning Commission voted the project unanimously down. Now we are counting on the City Council to view this re-zoning request with a healthy dose of suspicion. Some of'the recent campaign statements are encoura�jZ., Mr. Sullivant is working for the residents of Orange County and not developers and lobbyists. Mr. Bauer wants to preserve the Integrity of our neighborhoods and Ms. Detloff would never sacrifice the Quality of Life to continue a high level of service to the citizens. Apparently we are in good hands here! Over the past two years alone, much energy and money has been wasted to ramrod this Crest View re-zoning down our throats. And mainly because of the unfair tactics of the Tarwater School Board has this issue turned into a bitter conflict of us vs. them. Non of the Crest View residents have ever been consulted in the formulation of a reuse plan for the Crest View School. We are at the end of the road now;we have nowhere else to turn. We are asking the Mayor & members of the City Council to defeat this re-zoning effort once and for all. cm c—.A111J'Y e..k Lyc.r- ✓U , RECEIVED FROM ��G"�''��` ✓���� r ((ff G AND MADE A PART OF THE RECLRR_Qpj T}i� 18341 Springtime Lane COUNCIL MEETING OF �� Huntington Beach, CA 92646 OFFICE OF THE CITY CLERK g CONNIE BROCKWAY,CITY CLERK Connie Brockway, City Clerk City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Subject: Proposed Wal-Mart Project at Crest View Site Dear Ms. Brockway: As a homeowner who resides in the immediate vicinity of the proposed Wal-Mart Project for the past 26 years, I am writing to oppose this project. My opposition is for numerous reasons: • The impact that this project will have on the residents in the neighboring area and the residential quality of life issues such as additional traffic, noise, safety, air quality, drainage, and the loss of open space have been underestimated. The Good Shepherd Cemetery, is located immediately to the North of the proposed site and currently has an average of 12 burials per week that include solemn rites at the grave side with clergy and often a substantial number of mourners. There is a need to maintain the dignity and solemnity of the religious services and avoid additional intrusion on those activities. • Revenue. Of course this is very important to any city, however, diverted sales tax does not increase revenue to the city. The Huntington Beach Library generates $200,000 in revenue from renting out its meeting rooms with no negative impact to the City. While Wal- Mart will generate approximately the same amount of money with negatives to the community and the City. The Sales Tax leakage will not be helped by Wal-Mart. It appears that the City of Huntington Beach would be facing a high risk with the addition of a Wal-Mart at the Crest View site, due to the close proximity in the "Primary Market'. The ability to attract enough customers from this area as well as other parts of the city, especially outside the "Primary Market' will not happen. People living in the Harbor, the North end, and West side of the city will not travel to Talbert to shop at a Wal-Mart. • The loss of open space. We do not have a park or place where we can take our children/grandchildren to play in the area that is easily accessible. The loss of 9.8 acres of open space suitable for playing fields in a city with a shortage of youth facilities is a real concern. During the last election the incumbents seemed concerned about - f s youth and the need to develop playing sites for these groups. The General Plan projects the City's population will increase 40,000 in 20 years. There will be even more outcries for Youth Sports field and schools from residents of the city. • Quality shopping. Our city lacks quality shopping centers for us to spend our money. Instead, we are forced to continue to go to neighboring cities such as Costa Mesa and Newport Beach to buy quality merchandise. Wal-Mart will not capture the Sales Tax leakage. • Wal-Mart locations. Since 1995, Wal-Mart has opened stores in Orange County (Anaheim, Brea, Foothill Ranch, Laguna Niguel, Santa Ana, & Westminster). According to the latest report of the FBI; Department of Justice; populations figures from State Department of Finance, Laguna Niguel has had an increase of total crime of 21.4%. It is important to remember that those of us that live on the East side of Beach Blvd. are also residents of the City of Huntington Beach and deserve the same quality of life and representation as those residents that live in the Harbor and the West side of Beach Blvd. I have spoken to many citizens from all parts of the city and have not found 1 person who would shop or want a Wal-Mart at the Crest View site. I hope that you will concur with the Planning Commission and realize that the Crest View site is the wrong place for a commercial store of the magnitude of a Wal-Mart. Thank you for your consideration.

HIGHLAND • SAN BERNARD►NO, CA • EXIT OFF 1-330 WAL*MART' Arw ' October 9, 1998 - Huntington Beach City Council 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA92648 Dear City Council, I have been following the coverage of local newspapers about the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store. While reading the comments of local residents and newspaper editors, I realize there are some general misconceptions about Wal-Mart. As a Wal-Mart department manager I feel that I am qualified to speak to these issues. Wal-Mart has made a real impact on California, in a very positive way. Last year California Wal- Mart stores donated over $3.9 million to environmental programs, scholarships, many non-profit organizations and schools. In regard to the latter, for some students this means the difference between being able to attend college or not, or being able to go on that educational field trip that they might not have otherwise had the opportunity. Some schools use their funds for campus beautification while others use their funds to purchase books for their library. The list goes on and on. I have been fortunate enough to meet some of the students and organizations that come to the store and receive these grants and donations. If you could see their faces you would feel the same way I do. Let's say though, that this isn't enough to convince you. Wal-Mart benefits California in more ways than one. Last year, Wal-Mart spent over$3.5 billion with California vendors and suppliers, evidence of its commitment to supporting local economies. Clearly, this would continue with the Huntington Beach store. In 1997, Wal-Mart contributed $54.7 million in total state and local taxes; sales taxes collected totaled $311.9 million. Clearly, Wal-Mart is good for California and good for Huntington Beach. Sincerely, John Martinez 6442 Iroquios Road Westminster, CA 92683 Department Manager lay Wal-Mart ATTAC H M LE NT INO ��� WAL*MART' Rrw October 9, 1998 Mayor Shirley Dettloff 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Dear Mayor Dettloff, Wal-Mart is the nation's largest private employer and is frequently cited in surveys as one of the best companies to work for. I feel the same way, since I am one of the department managers of the Westminster Wal-Mart store. Wal-Mart is one of the few companies in America where a#associates can qualify for medical benefits, stock options and bonuses. The great thing about Wal-Mart is that approximately 60% of all Wal-Mart store managers have advanced from hourly associate positions. Wal-Mart definitely offers jobs with a future. If you are curious about the way that Wal-Mart treats its employees stop by our store and talk to them or visit the Wal-Mart website at www.wal-mart.com. Thank you for your time and I hope you take this into consideration when deciding the fate of the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store.

My family has grown up on Wal-Mart. We don't want to pay full price for the items we purchase on a weekly basis. Wal-Mart has been good to us in the past and I think the new store that you are considering will do the same. If the City decides to build the Huntington Beach Wal-Mart I'm sure that most of the people in our city will shop there as well.

At Wal-Mart we strive provide quality jobs with opportunity for advancement. We offer competitive salaries and comprehensive benefits for both full- and part-time associates. To make sure that our customers receive the right quality products, each department manager in our store custom-orders the merchandise that the local shoppers prefer. This only makes sense, since our goal is to keep our customers happy. The reason we are able to offer such low prices is because of our efficient distribution network that helps Wal-Mart reduce costs, and in turn we are able to pass the savings on to the customer. Wal-Mart does business the right way and I am proud to work for Wal-Mart. I'm sure that the employees that could be hired at the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart would feel the same way. Sincerely, a Garden Grove Department Manager Wal-Mart Westminster,'CA AT TACn-,ArE:NT I, 0- E'D J 0 C i 2 ' 1998 ch October 8, 1998 Dear City Council of Huntington Beach, am a resident of Huntington Beach and, at first, was not sure if I wanted a Wal-Mart store in my city. 1 have found out, with a little research of my own, that the money that the store will provide for our Oceanview School District is badly needed. The money will help the 30-year-old school district with repairs of leaking roofs, bad heating and air conditioning and many other things. The money will also update computers used by the students and staff. It is unfortunate that our Huntington Beach School facilities fall far behind other local cities, but I think that with the new Wal-Mart store we can begin to change some of this. Our Huntington Beach children deserve more than we are currently providing for them. Thank you for your time and I hope you take my suggestion into consideration. i Sincerely, 4LinaDinger 1 16772 Leafwood Circle Huntington Beach, CA 92647 WAL*MART' R E C E I V E OCT 0 ? 1998 COMMUNITY DEVELO r• P��1ENT October 6, 1998 Jane Madera Associate Planner City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, Ca 92648 Dear Jane, We have received (and continue to receive) numerous letters and signatures in support of the Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store.

I am working on getting you answers to those questions,as well as materials that will,hopefully, clarify much of the misinformation. First, I understand that concerns have been raised about Wal-Mart's impact on local businesses, as evidenced in the Shils' Report that project opponents have been circulating. Similar concerns have been raised in other communities. Some local merchants fear Wal Mart's entry into the market,concerned about the impact the store might have on their business. The reality is Wal-Mart's impact can be quite positive. Research shows that retail sales typically grow following the opening of a Wal-Mart, primarily because Wal-Mart acts as a retail magnet, drawing shoppers from out-of-town and keeping locals shopping in town. That's good for all local businesses. We believe that same opportunity exists in Huntington Beach. We believe that Wal-Mart,as a general merchandise store,will complement,not compete with,the local merchants in Huntington Beach. Please find attached the following: • Excerpts from studies on Wal-Mart's economic impact • Articles about studies on Wal-Mart's economic impact • A Letter to the Editor specifically addressing the Shils' report Again, I will continue to forward you information that you all may find useful.

The rebuttal to Ms Lion's statements were based on the familiar scare issue,Marvin Josephson,obstensibly Crest View spokeperson,again used his previous negative comments concerning Wal-Mart. First he points with alarm that the"smaller mom and pop"stores would be put out of business. If Marvin would canvas the services and articles that these smaller shops offer he would find that in essence they are urique and never intended to compete with K-Mart, {. Target or Wal-Mart or arty other large retail outlets. Nevertheless he continues on this theme for a misleading argumem against Wal-Mart. Now let's continue to analyze Marvin logic. After exhausting the availability of any logic in this area he states-why don't you put your store at Huntington Center or along Edinger" Marvin goes on to nationalize this location as being a better magnet to attract customers, Let's get this in proper perspective. Fuss Marvin does not want a Wal-Mart in Huntington Beach because it will put the"mom and pop"stores out of business,then he suggests locating a Wal-Mart in a location that will attract more customers. Is Marvin and his Crest Voew United people interested in preserving the ststus quo? I think not. The crux of the Crest View United peoples attitude is that they don't give a hoot about Huntington Beach,its tax base, the desire of the rest of us who would relish the prospect of shopping in our own city or any other facet involved with Wal-Mart.

He spent a lot of time explaining the benefits the Laguna Niguel Wal-Mart has made to his city. Due to city policy, he is not able to put his comments in writing. However, he did suggest I give his name to Huntington Beach Officials as a reference and he will be glad to speak to them candidly one on one. Some of the issues he spoke with me about was the smooth transition of the Wal-Mart opening and the revenue it has generated for the city. He was very surprised at the opposition the proposed Huntington Beach store was having. He also has information showing the specific donation amounts the Laguna Niguel Wal-Mart has given to the community, such as Children's Miracle Network (benefitting Children's Hospital), Girl Scout, CSP Youth Shelter Laguna Beach, and $1,000 scholarship to Brianna Keilar of Mission Viejo High School.

The Plaza Redevelopment Project was adopted in 1990 and included the deteriorated and nearly vacant Anaheim Plaza shopping center. Owned by the California State Teachers Retirement System, Anaheim Plaza was one of the first regional malls constructed in Orange County and the first to be enclosed. Following significant regional mall development in neighboring communities, Anaheim Plaza declined to the point of becoming a public eyesore and lacked sufficient tenants to provide retail opportunities for the community. Following unsuccessful attempts by the property owner to revitalize the center as a typical regional mall, a plan was developed to establish a value oriented center that would serve the needs of the immediate community and take advantage of its location on the Santa Ana Freeway. Now anchored by a Wal-Mart, the new center is a thriving and productive retail asset for the City of Anaheim. Once the development team secured Wal-Mart,the project moved forward quickly and boasts graphic signage and architectural details, extensive landscaping, and a community room that has been very popular with local organizations. Wal-Mart was an active participant in the implementation of design features unique to Anaheim Plaza. Wal-Mart has been a very good neighbor and we hope to continue our relationship for many years to come.

WAL*MART' s August 24, 1998 Stacy Freeberg The Huntington Beach Independent 18682 Beach Blvd., Suite 160 Huntington Beach, CA 92646 Dear Editor: Some opponents of the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store have choosen to spotlight a report by Edward B. Shils, dean emeritus of Wharton Entrepreneurial Center. In his report, Shils charges that Wal-Mart and other large discount retailers have somehow unraveled the fabric of communities across the country. Given the source of funding for the study, partially by a special interest group, it's no surprise that the author paints a dreary picture of discount retailing's impact. If Mr. Shils' assesment of our impact were true, Wal-Mart would have gone out of business a long ago. If our stores were spoiling local economies and putting people out of work, there would be no monies available to spend in our stores. Wal-Mart's large investment in commercial real estate would be a disaster because land values would plummet as economies fell. But these are the facts: early this year Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., wrapped up the strongest year in its history. February sales increased 11 percent. We welcome 90 million consumers through our doors every week. This success would not be possible if the towns we serve were failing. We must be doing something right. What Wal-Mart does is simple: We focus on the customer, whom we view as "the boss." Our boss demands the right quality products at the right price, and service by friendly associates. To hire and keep the right people, we offer competitive salaries and comprehensive benefits for both full- and part-time associates. To offer the right quality products, every department manager in every store custom-orders the merchandise that conforms to local preferences. To deliver the right price, Wal-Mart operates the most efficient distribution network that reduces costs and allows us to pass the savings to the customer. The boss also expects Wal-Mart to support the community. Last year, our stores gave $102 million back to our communities in the form of grants, scholarships and fund-raisers. California alone donated more than $2.8 million of those funds. We are far and away the retail industry's leader in community giving. I invite readers to go online at www.wal-mart.com for the latest news about our company.

As evidenced by the early success of this store,the products and serviced offered by Wal- Mart are consistent with the community's consumer needs. The community has and will continue to derive many other benefits with the Wal- Mart opening in Westminster. For example: other businesses will benefit from additional exposure as a result of a growth of new consumers from surrounding communities;the City will receive additional sales tax revenues from the Wal-Mart shoppers; residents have and will enjoy the new employment opportunities offered by Wal-Mart; and the local residents will enjoy access to their new products and services. In summary, we believe the Wal-Mart location in Westminster has enhanced the economic profile of the community, and long term, it will continue to do so.

I was mentioning that the City was extremely happy with the results we're experiencing with the new store. We worked with Wal-Mart for a number of years to develop their first Santa Ana store at Harbor and McFadden as part of the redevelopment of the old Pacific Drive-In theater site which comprises a total of 22 acres. The Wal-Mart opened the first of this year and has done very well as the first phase for the entire project. We believe that the Wal-Mart's early construction spurred the rapid completion of an excellent high quality center for the westside of the City of Santa Ana. They seem to be very successful and are viewed as a major amenity by the residents of west Santa Ana. They have received a great deal of recognition from the Riverview West Neighborhood Association which surrounds the project area and have been a welcome and excellent neighbor to the single housing tract located immediately to the back of the development. Throughout the development process, the City had the usual concerns about signage and setbacks and delivery trucks going in and out of the back of the store because of its close proximity to the single family neighborhood. Wal-Mart worked with the City to mitigate any negative effects and, quite frankly, it's been a great success story in their initial year of operation. A�I AC'HI N i NO. I 20 CIVIC CENTER PLAZA - P.O.

My company, Minilab Specialties, Inc., has developed a great relationship with Wal-Mart who has ordered more than $2.5•million in products from us. As a local business, I was glad to see the funds stay in the Huntington Beach community. If Wal-Mart built a new store in my area, it would mean even better profits for myself and other local suppliers. Being familiar with Wal-Mart, I know that they try to keep as many dollars from leaving the immediate area as possible. If they built a Huntington Beach store, there would be even more incentive to keep the dollars in our city. I support having a Wal-Mart built on the old Crest View School grounds. Wal-Mart has made a commitment to Mini-Lab Specialties, Inc., of Huntington Beach and we are ready to make a commitment to them.

While reading the comments of local residents, I realize there are some general misconceptions about Wal-Mart. As Wal-Mart's Orange County district manager, I feel compelled to help shed some light on Wal-Mart's real impact - one that has been overwhelmingly positive throughout California, and especially in Orange County. The opening of a Wal-Mart store creates of hundreds of jobs. These are valuable employment opportunities for local residents - jobs with benefits, including medical and dental insurance, profit sharing, a 401 K plan and stock purchase options, just to name a few. About 70 percent of these positions are full-time. In my eight years as district manager, I have opened 20 new Wal-Mart stores in Southern California and have enjoyed seeing each store become a key supporter of their community. During this time, I have never had area residents contact me with a concern about the operation of a store in regards to noise or any issues that would affect the residents located near the store. These are our customers! We must be good neighbors so our business will grow. Wal-Mart believes in supporting the local economy. We buy locally and regionally whenever possible. In Huntington Beach alone last year, Wal-Mart spent $3.5 million with local suppliers (and $6.6 billion on suppliers throughout the state of California). Moreover, Wal-Mart is a vital contributor to each community it serves - this is a key cornerstone of our corporate philosophy. Our stores raise funds to support charitable causes and organizations on a daily basis. These organizations are chosen by each store's associates to ensure that all monies raised go back to the local community, where it counts the most. Being a partner in the communities we serve is a tradition we take pride in . . . a tradition we hope to continue in Huntington Beach.

Excellence" -- y 11 r-) December 2, 1998 , r t1 c 'r =01 c� Honorable Mayor-Elect Green City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Re: CREST VIEW/WAL-MART PROJECT Dear Honorable Mayor-Elect Green: Enclosed you will find Ocean View School District fact sheets regarding the proposed Crest View/Wal-Mart Project. These facts sheets have been disseminated to our community members in order to keep them informed regarding the potential commercial development of the Crest View site. Ocean View has been pursuing this project since 1995, and it has been our practice to update our community members through various avenues, including press releases, general public meetings, and correspondence. Ocean View has been working in concert with the City of Huntington Beach since the inception of this project. On September 9, 1996, prior to the entitlement process, the City identified Crest View as a potential retail development site. Further, the City encouraged the District to select a tenant that will provide the highest possible sales tax in order to meet the needs of the majority population. Ocean View is in alignment with this goal. It is inherent upon our School District Board of Trustees and Administrators to pursue revenue sources that will maintain necessary services to all our students, and community members at large. The District now has twenty-four school sites (fifteen open and nine closed). All of these schools are now more than twenty-five years old, and require facility improvements such as heating, air conditioning, fields, paint, blacktop, playground equipment, locker rooms, bathrooms, etc. Ocean View has an obligation to keep these facilities safe and in good repair in order to promote a positive learning environment. Currently, we lease six school sites which provide a gross income of approximately $970,000. Monies derived from these leases are limited to deferred maintenance and capital improvement projects; by law, these funds cannot be used for students programs, nor can they be used for staff or salary increases. Crest View/Wal-Mart Project -2- December 2, 1998 An Asset Management Committee, comprising parents, educators, and local business persons, determined that two of Ocean View's school sites were appropriate for commercial development: Crest View and Rancho View. The potential development of these sites as commercial sites would provide the District an income stream of starting at $800,000 per year. Ocean View is using one closed school site as a District office. However, with six remaining closed school sites, Ocean View is in an envious and excellent position to meet any future enrollment increases. Currently the District is growing at a rate of 2 percent per year. The present statistics on Crest View are as follows: • Closed since 1992 • A mobility rate - 33% • Projected enrollment through year 2004 - 175 students; average school in District - 650 students • 84 of Crest View's 175 students live west of Beach Blvd. and would remain at Hope View School for safety/transportation reasons The goal of the Ocean View Trustees and its Administrators is to maintain and improve the quality of life for all our children, parents, and business owners. In an ideal world, decisions could be made based on individual needs, but the District has a moral and fiduciary responsibility to prioritize the needs of its majority population. We must continue to expand our programs for students, and to safeguard our facilities. Community needs are just as great, ranging from health and safety concerns to the recreational (parks, fields, sport programs). The District has carefully considered the City's need for reuse of school sites for recreational open spaces. Attached you will find a table detailing the active and passive field acreage Ocean View makes available for use by the City's residents. We have dedicated 174 acres of school property for youth sport programs and 33 acres for park use. Most districts have sold their surplus sites in order to secure income for facility improvements. Ocean View does not wish to pursue this approach because of the devastating results that would ensue for open space and youth sports activities. The decisions made by the Ocean View Board of Trustees and its Administrators are governed by what's best for our kids. We appreciate our partnership with the City, and share your vision for promoting Huntington Beach as a town dedicated to obtaining what's best for its community members. Sincerely, .7 ames R.

November 5, 1998 SUBJECT: CREST VIEW/WAL-MART PROJECT Parents of Ocean View School District: As you know, Ocean View will be asking the Huntington Beach City Council to approve the development of the Crest View site as a Wal-Mart. The long term lease of this site will provide a total income to the District of $400,000 per year base rent and will allow Ocean View to continue to provide quality educational services for its 9,865 school children. We hope you will take a minute to look at the enclosed copy of an agenda item that I presented to the Board of Trustees at a regular monthly meeting. It answers the questions that are asked most frequently about the proposed development of the Crest View site. In 1990, a Master Planning Committee/Committee of Eleven was convened. The Master Planning Committee was then subdivided into an Integration/Reconfiguration Committee. Members of both Committees consisted of parents, community members, educators, local business persons, and administrators. The two Committees were charged with the responsibility of examining and correcting any imbalance of the ethnic ratio at our schools and at the same time, reconfiguring Ocean View's K-8 schools to K-5/6-8 schools. That meant some schools would be closed and students would be reassigned. Using specific criteria for determining school closures, the Committee recommended that Crest View be closed. On May 19, 1992, Crest View was officially declared surplus property for lease or sale by the adoption of Resolution No. 12:9192 by the Board of Trustees. Closure was based on priorities such as: student safety, enrollment, school plant, geographic consideration, financial savings, transportation, value of the site, and student population growth. Those determiners have not changed. It would cost approximately $2.5 million to reopen Crest, not a cost-effective plan, based on current and projected enrollment data. Crest View/ Page 2 Wal-Mart Project With higher costs and limited dollars, districts find they must cut costs to balance the budget each year. Many of the costs of operating the school district are beyond its control. Utilities are a good example. Those rates must be paid regardless of how much they increase. The cost of transporting students to and from school each day has been an ever increasing cost. School districts must either reduce the amount of transportation or divert money from other programs to pay for the increase. Further, the process of budgeting for facility improvements for California schools has been established by laws passed by the Federal Government, the California Legislature and through procedures determined by the California Department of Education. The Real Property Asset Management Committee/Community Budget Advisory Committee, also composed of parents, community members, educators, local business persons, and administrators, began the process of looking for developers and pursuing long term ground lease options. More than seventy meetings took place from 1990 - 1998 regarding the Crest View site. These were open to the public, for comments, or observation, or both. Students are not only entitled to an excellent education, but also safe, secure, and inviting environments. My major effort is to see that we not only maintain an outstanding school system, but that we continue to improve our facilities where necessary. I am convinced that in order to do so we must follow an intelligent long-range plan to avoid budget cuts that only provide short term "nickel and dime" solutions. Please know that we care very much about your children and always consider their best interests when making any decisions regarding our schools. Sincerely, ?James R. Tarwater, Ed.D.

Initially I was neutral about the development of this location into a WalMart store. However several days ago while driving by the school yard I observed a father playing with his 3 children. This reminded me of the numerous times I brought my now grown children to play on the basketball courts or on the large open field. I realized how important this area is to our neighborhood and to my children's children. Crest View is the only useable open space bordered by Beach Blvd., Talbert St., Newland St., and Ellis St. As such it is the only accessible open space available to the children (families)of this area of the city without the use of a car. Even the Ocean View high school soccer team practiced there during the construction of the Home Depot store. This area is too residentially oriented to have this only open space replaced by a WalMart store. As a law enforcement officer with over 30 years experience I say the value of this space for kids to play ball, etc., can not be forever sacrificed for the convenience of a large retail store and tax revenue.

BEACH, CA 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 RU GEC -8 A 11= 3 12-7-98 Dear members of the City Council, My name is Scott Biedermann. I live at 8402 Tradewind Circle, near the proposed Wal-Mart site at Talbert and Beach. I strongly believe that the Crest View site should not be rezoned for a Wal-Mart or any other commercial development. There are numerous reasons why I feel this way, a few of which I will list: 1. Increased noise and air pollution for my family and the population surrounding the site. 2. Increased traffic on a street which is largely residential and which dead-ends on one side at the public library. 3. Competition from existing stores in the area. 4. Loss of property values to the surrounding homes. The Planning Commission has voted to reject rezoning of Crest View. Tom Livengood has stated that the proposed tax revenue would actually be lower than anticipated. The Commission had spent a great amount of time studying this proposal and said no. Does this not show that this is not a good idea? I've been told that letters that have reached your council in favor of this development were signed at Wal-Marts in the area. If this is true, than the letters are most likely from uninformed individuals. My wife Marianne and I bought our home in 1989. We liked the location because it was a quiet neighborhood and the surrounding streets were not as impacted as others we had looked at. Our quality of life is very important to us, as I am sure yours is too. Please put yourself in our place. Would you entertain this idea if it was in your backyard? Please vote NO for rezoning.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Cynthia Lin Director of Community Affairs, West Region Wal-Mart 27470 Alicia Parkway Laguna Niguel, CA 92677 (949) 360-7860 WAL*MART. Contact: Cynthia Lin Wal-Mart Community Affairs (714) 360-7860 PROPOSED HUNTINGTON BEACH WAL*MART Fact Sheet Location: The Crest View Elementary School site at the corner of Beach Boulevard and Talbert. New Jobs: The new Wal-Mart will generate approximately 300 new jobs in the City of Huntington Beach; about 70% will be full-time positions with benefits including stock options and medical and dental insurance. Estimated Revenues: Recent economic impact surveys indicate that the new store will generate between $400,000 - $450,000 in sales tax revenues for the City of Huntington Beach, monies that can be used to support city services (such as the police and fire departments) and parks and recreation. Currently,the City of Huntington Beach loses approximately $214 million in retail sales "leakage" to other cities, dollars that the new Wal-Mart will help to keep in town. School Revenues: The new Wal-Mart will generate much-needed funds for the Ocean View School District. It will help the district modernize its 30-year-old school facilities by improving the heating, air conditioning, roofs, and classroom technology used by Huntington Beach students. Community First: Every Wal-Mart is committed to supporting the community it serves. Your neighborhood Wal- Mart does this through internal fundraising activities; educational scholarships; the Wal-Mart Foundation Matching Grant Program; environmental grants and more. In 1997, Wal-Mart stores raised more than $102 million for their local communities. Hours of Operation: The new store is expected to be open daily from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m., a schedule shared by all other Orange County Wal-Mart stores. Like other retailers, Wal-Mart likes to retain the option to operate on a 24-hour basis. Truck Deliveries: Wal-Mart plans to put the loading dock on the north side of the store, away from residents and so that trucks will not be allowed to drive around the building to make a delivery. Wal-Mart stores typically receive two truck deliveries per day. Deliveries are fast and quiet compared to many other retailers: each Wal-Mart trailer is quickly detached and sealed to the building, where it is unloaded inside. Noise Mitigation: The project plans that an 8' high screen wall will be constructed for the south and east sides of the property, along with wing walls that will be built at the loading dock area, will keep noise levels within the City's noise ordinance requirements. Aesthetics: Wal-Mart plans to install a greenbelt which will run the length of the 8' high screen walls. To restrict trucking, grass pavers (or the equivalent) will be used behind the building, instead of solid asphalt. Quality Jobs: The nation's largest private employer, Wal-Mart is frequently cited in surveys as one of the best companies to work for. The company is among the few companies in America where aH associates can qualify for medical benefits, stock options, and bonuses. Wal-Mart believes in jobs with a future: approximately 60% of all Wal-Mart store managers advanced from hourly associate positions. WAL*MART' A�w A GLANCE AT WAL*MART TODAY Vital Statistics November 1998 Number of Wal*Mart Stores: 2,399 (including 546 supercenters) Number of SAM'S Clubs: 451 Company Trade Territory: The 50 United States, Agentina, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, Mexico, Puerto Rico, and South Korea. 1997 Annual Sales: $1 17.9 billion (FYE 1/31/98, a 12% increase over the prior year) Customers: 90 million per week Employment: Wal*Mart is considered one of the Top 100 companies to work for in America. To attract, and keep, high-quality associates Wal*Mart offers one of the most comprehensive and competitive compensation packages in the industry. Number of Associates: 895,000 associates worldwide (780,000 in United States and 115,000 internationally) 1997 Community Involvement: $102 million to charitable, non-profit organizations including: * $50 million in community grants * $20 million to Children's Miracle Network * $13 million to United Way * $8 million in educational scholarships * $3 million in economic development grants * $1.3 million in environmental grants "Made Right Here" Program: Wal*Mart's commitment to purchase from local and regional vendor partners whenever prices and quality are comparable, has helped supported job growth and revenues in the cities, states and countries in which Wal*Mart is located. Excerpts from Studies on Vial-Mart's Local Impact "The entry of Wal-Mart does not bring automatic devastation to a local retail economy. In most areas, retailers did experience a short term drop in sales, but then a return to previous levels. In many cases, there was an increase in retail activity,because a Wal- Mart store has such a large geographic trade area, that many towns experienced an expansion of their retail trade area." -- "Economic&Fiscal Impact Analysis, Proposed Wal-Mart Store, Woodland California,"pg. S, 1992, Economics Strategies Group. "There is no evidence that Wal-Mart has a negative impact on the economy of rural communities. While the data showed that many of the counties had economic indicators describing decline or stagnation before the advent of Wal-Mart, almost all showed growth or revitalization after the opening of Wal-Mart." — "Effect of Wal-Mart Stores on Economic Environment of Rural Communities,pg. 1, 1989, College of Business and Public Administration, University ofMissouri, Columbia, Missouri. "Personal income, per capita income,wages and salaries,non-wage income, and non- farm proprietors income in both current and constant dollars increased in every county studied after the entry of Wal-Mart to the market." — "Effect of Wal-Mart Stores on Economic Environment of Rural Communities,pg. 1, 1989, College of Business and Public Administration, University ofMissouri, Columbia,Missouri. "Wal-Mart has had significant positive effect on sales tax revenues for each community. A town's market share usually improves after the opening of a Wal-Mart further benefiting sales tax ievenues." — "Effect of Wal-Mart Stores on Economic Environment of Rural Communities,pg. 1, 1989, College of Business and Public Administration, University ofMissouri, Columbia,Missouri. "Earlier studies have shown that sales, employment and personal incomes increase in towns where a Wal-Mart is located. From our work, the governing mechanism appears to be the power of the draw, WaI-Mart grows their trade areas, for the longer a Wal-Mart existed in a county, the more positive the impact on economic indicators. Counties with Wal-Mart stores which have been open for the longer periods tend to compare very favorable on growth rates when state and non Wal-Mart rural areas are examined" —"Five Wal-Mart Case Studies,"pg. 1, 1994, John Winter Associate Limited "We found that when the area of retail influence increases, • More money becomes available and is oriented to the communities. • Commercial concentrations within the communities have a chance to increase their sales as a result of the new customers traveling to these case study communities." -- "Five Wal-Mart Case Studies, "pg. 2, 1994, John Winter Associate Limited. ATTACHMENT NO. I � Straight Talk about Wal-Mart's Local Impact As a Huntington Beach community leader,you may be approached by some residents who have heard that a Wal-Mart store can harm the local business district, create traffic problems, and even increase crime. These are the facts: • Research studying the local economic impact of a Wal-Mart store typically shows that total retail sales grow after a Wal-Mart store opens— which benefits the local tax base. This is the result of the Wal- Mart store attracting shoppers from the outlying area. These reports also find that businesses which do not compete head-to-head with the Wal-Mart store benefit from the larger number of shoppers that Wal-Mart brings into the town. • Wal-Mart hires 100 to 500 area residents to operate the store, depending on the size of the store. (Usually 70 percent of them are full-time associates.) This infusion of new payroll is spent by Wal- Mart associates at other local businesses, creating a ripple effect. The Wal-Mart store itself is a consumer of local banking,janitorial, security and other services. • A Wal-Mart job is not a"minimum wage job." Wal-Mart always pays above minimum wage with a pay scale that is competitive to the local retail market. Both full-time and part-time associates are eligible for benefits. For career-minded individuals,the company offers more opportunities to - advance than any other retailer. About 60 percent of Wal-Mart's management staff started with the company as hourly associates. • Wal-Mart recognizes that giving back to the community is not only the right thing to do—it's good business. When a Wal-Mart store participates in a fundraising drive for a local nonprofit cause,it can access a matching grant from the Wal-Mart Foundation. Every store also can apply for a Wal-Mart Economic Development Grant to assist the community in projects that attract new employers. Wal- Mart stores also partner with local schools and the Chamber of Commerce to honor a Teacher of the Year and an exceptional business leader. The grand opening of a Wal-Mart store always includes donations to local worthy causes. • Wal-Mart stores are safe. The store provides its own in-store security and does not allow loitering in the parking lot. Surveillance cameras deter criminals. Money transported from the store to the bank is guarded by a local security agency. Hundreds of Wal-Mart stores now patrol their parking lots with golf carts that further deter crime. These voluntary measures greatly reduce the burden on the police department. • The increase in traffic generated by a Wal-Mart store can benefit nearby stores and restaurants,but it must not come at the expense of public safety. Wal-Mart works with local and state governments to resolve traffic issues and ensure that customers can safely enter and exit the parking lot. In some communities, there have been some residents or local merchants who have expressed concerns and fears about Wal-Mart coming to their town. But a year after the store opens, local newspapers typically report that those fears never materialized. Wal-Mart stores are an asset to the community. Local tax revenue increases. The Wal-Mart store contributes to local schools and other worthy causes. The Main Street business district adjusts. The"net"is positive for the community. A-FFIA .. H:,fl, k 1T NO,-�.

Box 190 Huntington Beach, Ca. 92648 Dear Sirs : I am a 36 year resident of our fair city. We need a Wal-Mart store in our com^:unity. A lot of us are not paid union scale wages or benefits and we are on ':budgets. Cur utility bills alone have escalated with new taxes, surcharges, new trash and recycling fees that I think could have been curtailed if we had had the foresight to encourage busin,-�sses to settle here instead of promoting the bedroom co*umunity we now have. I well remember how we failed with Price Club via our maeandering and haggling and now Fountain Valley is reaping the bootie. The question is : do we or do we not want the 400,000 or so dollars in sales tax in our coffers or not? I for one will shop ;dal-Mart whether it be in Westminster, Fountain Valley or our own Huntin .ton Beach. Parks and unused schools do not generate income ! 4Jal-1.1-art is knocking at our door and if we don't answer, someone else surely will. Very truly, Phyllis Pearson RECEIVED ell '..� N 0 V 0 91998 DEPi+tZ'P,iENT OF C0tA,kAUN1TY DEVELOPMENT l JAMES R GALLAGHER 21562 Kaneohe Lane Huntington Beach, CA 92646 Oct 30, 1998 Shirley Dettloff, Mayor City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach CA 92648 Dear Shirley Sylvia and I urge you to disregard the recommendation of the Planning Commission about not giving WalMart a building permit for their proposed store at Talbert and Beach. We both think that a WalMart store should be built in Huntington Beach for the following reasons: 1. While it is true that some citizens in the area will be impacted by the store adjoining their property, the vast majority of people in Huntington Beach and nearby surrounding cities will have a store nearby that carries a very extensive line of merchandise at very reasonable prices. We travel several months of the year and when in strange towns we always seek out a WalMart store because eve know their selection of merchandise is enormous and that we will get excellent value there for our money. Retired people and people living near the poverty level need a store like Walmart to make their money go farther. 2. The city's sales tax income from such a store would be very substantial and will help the city keep solvent. We have always regretted that a Price Club store was not approved and built in Huntington Beach. Now we find it very inconvenient for us to drive over to the far side of Fountain Valley to shop at Price Club. And think of the thousands of sales tax dollars from us Huntington Beachers that Fountain Valley is now getting instead of going into our city coffers. 3. We are people who like to get up early in the morning and get started early. Having a store like WalMart that would be open very early in the morning would be a godsend to those of us who like to get started early. Now when we find we need something early in the morning we have to wait around to 9:00 or 10:00 for some store to open--and after shopping, the day is half shot for us. 4. You know that Sylvia and I are hardcore environmentalists, but we also know full well that progress will come to Huntington Beach whether we like it or not. The proposed site is adjoining businesses now operating on Beach Blvd. and thus will not impact as many people as building on other sites in Huntington Beach might. And surely the store could be positioned on the site to have the loading dock next to Talbert and away from the adjoining residences. Further, we think that a poll of people living within a couple of miles of the proposed WalMart would find that a large majority of residents would welcome a store there. Shirley, we urge you to vote to allow WalMart to build at the Talbert and Beach site if no better site can be found in Huntington Beach. We hate to think that Huntington Beach might lose a WalMart store when we have a good chance to get one. Sincerely . Aa,tl Ja es R. Gallagher Sylvia R.

Each of the managers, Chief Financial Officers and Real Estate Officers I spoke with had not heard of the RFIR, had not been contacted regarding the report, and were not aware that their stores were being referenced/sourced in it. When asked about the impact the proposed Wal-Mart might have on sales, most of the businesses stated that they did not believe business would be negatively impacted. Here are just a few of the comments I received: Andy Koehler, manager of the Orange Big 5 Sporting Goods, said that his store sells different items than Wal-Man does and that having a Wal-Mart so close to his store has actually increased his sales. "If anything,Wal-Mart has benefitted my store,"said Koehler, "And you can quote me because I would tell it to anyone that walked in the store." Joe Imbragulio at Strouds corporate offices said that he doesn't object to having a Wal-Mart store built in Huntington Beach, even though there is a Strouds just one mile up the street. Joe felt that the proposed store would not negatively impact his store. Many members of management that I spoke with felt that Wal-Mart would not negatively impact them due to the fact that they sell very different/non-competing items. They said that they have very loyal client bases and do not forsee declines in sales. One of the managers was surprised that his store's name was used in the RFIR since their corporate office never authorizes its use for such purposes. Management overall, at the stores I contacted,were glad to refer me to other stores located near a Wal-Mart and to their corporate offices to get specific information. Thanks!April �, —NT WAL*MART' A�w October 14, 1998 City of Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Dear City of Huntington Beach, I hope you are considering the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store in a positive light. Wal-Mart has always believed that grass-roots efforts are the best way to help the communities they serve by each of its 2,700 stores. That is why Wal-Mart focuses on forming special relationships with their customers and neighbors to roll up our sleeves and get to work—together—on issues that count. We encourage charitable organizations seeking our Involvement to begin with their local Wal-Mart, to invite associates to participate in local projects, and perhaps to eventually join in fundraising efforts that qualify for matching corporate funds. We know that community service Is much more than writing a check. It's getting involved and making a difference, every day of the week. We haven't forgotten what is important to the people who live near our stores. After all, we live here too. Sincerely, Warren Fujimaka Department Manager Westminster Wal-Mart Resident of Stanton, CA WAL*MART' RECEIVE ® 6 OCT 1 51998 DEPAR T MA N T OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPME� October 12, 1998 Huntington Beach City Council 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 City Council: Huntington Beach should be proud to have a Wal-Mart store in their neighborhood. Wal-Mart's community involvement goes above and beyond many other local retailers. It consists of five integral areas: good neighbor programs, our children, education, economic health and the environment. • Our good neighbor programs encourage our hundreds of thousands of associates annually to play an important part in their local communities. United Way, Community Matching Grants, the Holiday Charity Program, the Helen Walton Community Involvement Award and the Volunteerism Always Pays program are just a few of the ways that Wal-Mart demonstrates its commitment to local neighborhoods. • As part of an ongoing commitment to keeping children safe and healthy, Wal-Mart supports a number of child-orientated programs. Wal-Mart is the largest corporate sponsor of Children's Miracle Network and on a daily basis they are involved with Missing Children's Network. Code Adam is a program that began to protect children from abduction inside their stores and is one of the nation's largest child safety programs. • Wal-Mart recognizes the profound impact education can have and invests in the future success of America through a variety of education awards and scholarship programs. The Sam Walton Community Scholarship is a program where $1,000 college scholarships are made available to local high school seniors everywhere a Wal-Mart store is located. The Competitive Edge Scholarship Fund pays $20,000 over four years. With the annual Teacher of the Year Award, each Wal-Mart store picks a deserving teacher and awards $500 for us in the classroom. This list goes on and on. • Wal-Mart is also very concerned with economic health. As one of the nation's largest corporations, Wal-Mart recognizes its responsibility as a leader in supporting American industry, and creating and protecting American jobs. The Sam Walton Business Leader Award honors a local businessperson who best represents quality customer service, respect for the individual and commitment to excellence. With that, $500 is donated to the local Chamber of commerce in the winner's name. The American Hometown Leadership Award and the Minority & Women-Owned Business Development Program are just some of the other programs that Wal-Mart offers to stimulate economic development. AI TAka N11EIN i•a(-1). 9. 2 Page 2 • True to Wal-Mart's community involvement philosophy, associates factor very prominently in environmental efforts. Wal-Mart associates are very active in adopt-a- highway/beach programs, and teaming up with other members of the community to clean up local streets, highways and waterfronts. Wal-Mart demonstrates its commitment to the environment by providing programs such as: Environmental Grants, Environmental School Grants, Earth Day Events, recycling store materials and building stores to be more energy efficient. This is just a quick overview of the five integral areas that Wal-Mart is concerned with. If a Wal-Mart were to be opened in Huntington Beach, Wal-Mart would continue to be sensitive to the needs of the Huntington Beach community as they are in all other communities. Thank you for your time and consideration of these many important issues that face our neighborhoods today. incerely, Vivian J.

"w.santee-chambenorg E-NuuL: info@santee-chamber.org April 15, 1998 Cynthia Lin Community Affairs Walmart Stores, Inc. 702 South 8th Street Bentonville, AR 72716 Dear Ms. Lin: The Santee Chamber of Commerce, which serves nearly 300 business members as well as Santee's visitors and residents, cooperates with the City of Santee in multi-faceted programs to strengthen the area's economy through business development and community involvement, and in activities such as the Santee Expo and Spooktacular Events. Santee's Walmart store, which opened five years ago, has been a valuable ally in those ongoing efforts. First, the store itself offers a wide range of products at very attractive prices and draws shoppers to Santee from within the community as well as all over the region. In addition, our Walmart provides employment for about 340 local area residents. Walmart has also assisted in drawing new development to the City of Santee, with new businesses opening soon in that area. Increased sales tax revenue from that new business development will help support important city services, including fire and police protection as well as the city's parks and recreation programs. Our local Walmart management team has been very friendly and supportive towards our community service clubs, youth organizations, Friends of the Library, and the Santee Chamber itself. Specifically, the local manager informed the Chamber of the availability of Walmart's Industrial Development grants to increase job opportunities in our area. We are most grateful for the many ways in which our local Walmart Store has contributed to the well-being of our community. If I can be of service, please do not hesitate to contact me.

One of the positive things about our Poway Wal-Mart store is that its employees believe strongly in being contributing members of the Poway community. This marvelous attitude begins with the store manager, Michael Hardaway. Quoting Michael, "By being active participants, we all get to know our customers better and this helps us serve them better, both in our daily business and in our community support efforts." The Poway Wal-Mart has a tradition of contributing generously to every community effort. The three North county stores, Oceanside, Poway, and Vista, donated over $255,000 to non-profit charities, organizations, and schools last year. In March, a Poway businessman, Gary Char!ebois, was recognized by the Poway Wal-Mart store in being presented the Sam Walton Business Leader Award sponsored by the Wal-Mart Foundation. The Poway Chamber of Commerce also received a $500 grant in the honoree's name. The Sam Walton Business Award is just another way that Wal-Mart contributes to our business community. Wal-Mart also contributes to the Poway community through its "Volunteerism Always Pays" program. For every 15 hours of volunteer time per quarter that an associate spends on behalf of a non-profit organization, the Wal-Mart Foundation donates $100. The value of these volunteer hours is not only immeasurable, but has also resulted in a $1,600 matching grant to Poway Boy Scout Pack 617, and a $5,800 matching grant to Garden Road Elementary School. Dedieatea to the Community for over 45 years Perhaps the greatest contribution that Wal-Mart makes to Poway is its friendly and accommodating attitude. Shoppers "enjoy" going into Wal-Mart. The management principles of dedication to customer service, respect for the individual, and striving for excellence cant' into the community. We sincerely appreciate the Poway Wal-Mart and enjoy working with its management and employees. Sincerely, ed Executive Di or FRD/so I I City of Vista April 13, 1998 Les Copeland 701 S.W. 8`h Street Bentonville, AR 72716 FAX 501-204-0151 SUBJECT: WALXMART, VISTA, CALIFORNIA WAL MART is a special family-orientated, employee-driven business who serves out community and surrounding communities. They were involved with the 1997 July 4th Independence Day Celebration at Brengle Terrace Park, kicking off the fund raising for th event. Vista's 15th Annual Fourth of July celebration is one of the best family events in the Count. WAL MART is a company interested in family and was the main sponsor and large contributor and $5,000 was raised by their employees through different fund-raising activities. I would like to say a few words about Wal Mart. Wal Mart Associates are very involved in raising money for our local charities. One of the ways they are involved is through a Wal Mart Program called "Volunteerism Always Pays." An associate will volunteer 15 hours of their time per quarter to a local Charity and the Wal Mart Foundation will pay $100.00 to that charity. Another way Wal Mart get involved is through their Matching Grant Program. When a school or charity has a local fundraiser Wal Mart Associates will participate on their own time in the fundraiser and the Wal Mart Foundation will match funds raised. Within the store, throughout the year they have bake sales, silent auction and lunches, where associates bring in items or food. They also have had to wear "crazy hats," collecting money to get it off their heads. 600 Eucalyptus Avenue • P.O.

Outreach programs include: St. Marks Outreach, St. Clares, Faith & Love Ministries, Alpha Project, MADD, E.Y.E. , Women's' Resource Center, Lifeline, Special Olympics, Brother Benos, Children's Home Society, Churches, etc." I feel proud to have Wal Mart in our City that I proclaimed JULY 4, 1997 WAL MART DAY IN THE CITY OF VISTA. I enjoy working with Jon Foster and Ann Ingham and all the employees of WAL MART. They are exceptionally helpful when I personally shop. I commend them for their efforts t make our Community a better place for all.

Yes there were some initial issues and concerns our neighborhood had over using the land for the Santa Ana Wal-Mart. Since its doors opened for business, we have not been disturbed by noise from delivery trucks. As you can see, we have a window that faces the back of the store. Still, we do not hear the trucks. " Angelica Rodriguez, Santa Ana. "I have lived here a long time and the Wal-Mart behind us does not disturb me or my family. I've never heard my neighbors complain, either. Personally, / haven't noticed an increase in traffic since the Wal-Mart was built, and l live on the corner of Susan Street and McFadden. McFadden has always been really busy.

The speaker was comparing his neighborhood near Golden West Community College with its playing fields and open space and the weekend swap meets which take place there, to our neighborhood and a 24 Wal Mart (with no open space in sight) and not one ounce of buffer. There is no comparison. I have always been under the impression that staff and city employees are supposed to conduct themselves during the council meetings with impartiality and that they are there to advise council on the various subjects that come up during council meetings. I expect any person in such as position as Mr. Beardsley would be more attuned to what is proper and what is improper behavior during council meetings.

PJ:lp xc: Ray Silver • • J3 E XHIBIT A i CREST VIEW SCHOOL/WALXMART • STATEMENT OF OVERRIDING CONSIDERATIONS The California Environmental Quality Act (CF:QA) requires a public agency to balance the benefits of a proposed project against its significant unavoidable adverse environmental impacts in determining whether to approve the project. The project will result in environmental effects of Air Quality and Land Use, which, although mitigated to the extent feasible by the implementation of mitigation measures, will remain significant unavoidable adverse impacts as discussed in the Environmental Impact Report and Findings. The City of Huntington Beach has determined that the significant unavoidable adverse impact of this project are acceptable when balanced against the benefits of this project. In making this determination, the factors and public benefits provided below were considered. ♦ The proposed land use and zoning map amendments to General Commercial for up to a maximum of 175,000 square feet of general retail commercial development, are consistent with and implement City of Huntington Beach Resolution No. 96-57, adopted by the City Council on July 1, 1996. This resolution encourages consideration of applications for commercial development on large parce'.s of land adjacent to major arterial highways or other vacant or underutilized parcels in the City, including vacant/surplus school sites, or any other vacant or underutilized sites or parcels in the City of Huntington Beach. ♦ The proposed land use and zoning map amendments to General Commercial will increase • employment opportunities in the City of Huntington Beach including short-term construction employment and long-term employment opportunities associated with potential future construction of up to 175,000 square feet of general retail commercial development. ♦ The proposed land use and zoning map amendments to General Commercial and a potential for up to 175,000 square feet of general retail commercial development will generate lease revenue for the Ocean View School District, which will utilize the funds for facilities and programs within the Ocean View School District. ♦ The proposed land use and zoning map amendments to General Commercial and a potential for up to 175,000 square feet of general retail commercial development will contribute toward revitalization of marginal commercial uses in the area and will serve as a catalyst to stimulate other business opportunities and widen the employee base of the community. ♦ The proposed land use and zoning map amendments to General Commercial and a potential for up to 175,000 square feet of general retail commercial development will have a positive fiscal effect on the City of Huntington Beach. It will generate substantial additional revenues (assuming a future project condition of approval limiting a maximum of 10% of "big box" floor area devoted to display of non-taxable sales items) to the City of Huntington Beach.

Crest View School is located on the south side of Talbert Avenue approximately 300 feet east of Beach Boulevard. EIR No. 97-1 was certified and adopted by the City Council on December 14, 1998 along with the approval of General Plan Amendment No. 97-1 and Zoning Map Amendment No. 97-1. The approved entitlements represent requests to amend the general plan and zoning designations from P (Public with underlying Low Density Residential) to General Commercial. The EIR also analyzed and disclosed the possible environmental impacts associated with the potential development of a 130,342 square foot Wal-Mart with an 8,158 square foot garden center as well as three retail/restaurant pads ranging in size from 3,500 to 5,500 square feet. Funding Source: Not applicable. Recommended Action: Motion to: 1. "Approve Mitigation Monitoring Program for Environmental Impact Report No. 97-1 (ATTACHMENT NO. 1)." REQUEST FOR ACTION MEETING DATE: March 15, 1999 DEPARTMENT ID NUMBER: PL99-18 Alternative Action(s): The City Council may make the following alternative motion(s): 1. "Continue Mitigation Monitoring Program for Environmental Impact Report No. 97-1 and direct staff accordingly." Analysis: As stated earlier, EIR No. 97-1 was certified and approved by the City Council on December 14, 1998. Along with the certification of the EIR, the City Council approved a general plan amendment and zoning map amendment to redesignate the property from Public to General Commercial. A Notice of Determination describing the Council's action was sent to the County of Orange Clerk Recorder's Office for a 30 day posting as required by CEQA. The Notice of Determination described that mitigation measures had not been made a condition of approval of the project because it was not appropriate to attach conditions of approval to the general plan amendment and zoning map amendment. On January 26, 1999, the Planning Commission reviewed and approved the Wal-Mart development request with findings, modified conditions of approval, and mitigation measures as identified in EIR No. 97-1. The conditions of approval for the project reference and require compliance with all mitigation measures disclosed and recommended in the environmental analysis. The Planning Commission's action has since been appealed to the City Council. However, it should be noted that none of the mitigation measures previously certified by the City Council may be appealed. The Mitigation Monitoring Program is the formal documentation required by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) to implement and monitor compliance with all mitigation measures. Staff is recommending approval (Recommended Action) because the Mitigation Monitoring Program establishes which City departments are responsible for ensuring completion and compliance with all adopted mitigation measures. Environmental Status: In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, Environmental Impact Report No. 97-1 was prepared by Planning Consultants Research (PCR), a consultant hired by the City, to analyze the potential impacts of the entire project. The EIR was certified by the City Council on December 14, 1998, prior to approving and adopting General Plan Amendment No. 97-1 and Zoning Map Amendment No. 97-1. The Mitigation Monitoring Program is a CEQA requirement to ensure that mitigation measures adopted pursuant to CEQA are being implemented.

With sales revenues of more than $100 billion, Wal-Mart has the financial muscle to spread its low-road employment practices throughout the U.S. economy, especially in UFCW represented industries. The mega-retailer recently opened four traditional grocery stores in a move to '.ti:.... make the U.S. supermarket industry its next conquest. This threatens all UFCW members and working families across America because the bottom line on Wal-Mart O is that it destroys jobs, devours local businesses, shrinks tax bases, and lowers BO i community living standards. Everybody—from health care workers to warehouse employees to garment and textile workers to insurance agents to food processing workers to supermarket clerks—feels the pinch when Wal-Mart moves its low-pay and shameful health care plan into the neighborhood. It's a company that turns good jobs into bad jobs, takes is medically insured workers and puts them into the ranks of the uninsured, and takes 0 taxpaying workers and their families and turns them into welfare-eligible families, supported by taxpayers. The more Wal-Mart spreads into our communities, the more UFCW members will see their wages and health benefits threatened. It's time for all American workers to stand up to the greed of this corporate giant which is lowering living standards across America. It can be stopped, and UFCW lit y ` '' ''�'T members can lead the way. We can begin by signing a Good Neighbor Pledge card, letting Wal-Mart know, loud and clear,they're not welcome in our neighborhoods. NV E FRUSI ( �aMBoeMo s I will use my voice,my vote and my consumer dollars to promote good jobs with living wages and family health benefits for my community. I pledge to buy my groceries at 7 supermarkets that support these community values with fair pay and affordable health benefits for workers. Ar I will NOT buy groceries from Wal-Mart or other stores that destroy existing jobs,pay poverty-level wages and do not provide employees with adequate health benefits. I am a good neighbor. My shopping dollars will go to responsible supermarkets that 's support my community.

Box 54143 Los Angeles,California 90054 December 14, 1998 Mr. David Biggs Director of Economic Development Huntington Beach City Hall 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, California 92648 Dear Mr. Biggs: I know that you are evaluating a possible new Wal Mart in Huntington Beach. We are all familiar with their large stores here in Southern California, of course. However, Wal Mart also operates a very different format, known as a "Supercenter", that combines their typical store with a supermarket in one even larger store. If Wal Mart is permitted to open one of these units (or expand into one from an existing unit) near a conventional supermarket, including a Ralphs, it will have very significant negative impact on the supermarket competitor's overall business. As a matter of fact, it would be no exaggeration to say that the entire supermarket business is bracing to defend itself against Wal Mart and its supercenters. A number of analysts with the large Wall Street investment firms have made this observation recently. The sheer size of Wal Mart (with more than $100 billion in sales) makes them extremely powerful.

Therefore, the following option is provided as an alternative to mitigate the loss of passive neighborhood recreational open space at Crest View School: I. Central Park-Improve 3.5 Acres for Passive Recreation A. In order to qualify as mitigation: 1. Must be currently unimproved. 2. Must be currently unfunded for improvement. B. Currently 16 unimproved acres available on west side of Goldenwest Street. C. Mitigation as follows: 1. Prior to issuance of building permit, a total of 3.5 acres of currently unimproved land at Central Park shall be improved for passive recreational use. The 3.5 acres shall be improved with an approved irrigation system, turf, trees, and shall be compatible with other passive areas within Central Park to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works and Community Services Director. In the event the City Council determines that neither the Lambert Park mitigation or Central Park alternative mitigation is adequate, then the loss of passive recreational open space becomes an unmitigated significant impact. This significant impact would therefore not be mitigated and must be added to the Statement of Overriding Considerations in order to adopt the resolution and certify the environmental impact report.

I read excerpts from it at the December 7 council meeting. It concerns the policy of RVs at Wal Mart. This, needless to say, is just one more problem a 24 hour Wal Mart would bring to our neighborhood. "Our parking lots are reserved for our customers, so if they shop there they can stay there," said Laura Pope, a national Wal-Mart spokeswoman. We in the Crest View neighborhood will be gaining nothing by this 24 hour big box store and will be losing everything, not the least of which is our quality of life. Who will be taking care of this inevitable problem? Sincerely, Debbie Josep son Enclosure CITY CLr K C!i Y vF December 9, 1998 HUi,T14,CTC`! CN, CA City Council Members of i498 EEC 10 P i : 3 Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Topic: Wal Mart Location and Sales Tax Dollars Dear City Council Members and Mayor Green: I would like to address a few of the arguments voiced by those proponents of a Wal Mart at the Crest View site, and who Crest View United believe, do not have the "full story". The first is a statement often heard: "The City needs Wal Mart-- The City Needs the Money" A hypothesis: If Wal Mart's plan were to build its store on the sand at the Beach, would the City say that it is OK? Why not? It will generate sales tax income. The City needs the money. Perhaps build the store in Central Park? It is a location that doesn't have any shopping. It will generate sales tax income. The City needs the money. How can one say "no"to a retailer as big as Wal Mart? What message does that send out to other businesses? Obviously, these are all ridiculous scenarios, but where is the line drawn? Putting Wal Mart at Crest View—tearing down a school, paving over and losing open space and a great site for Youth Sports fields is also ridiculous. That is why the Planning Commission has voted against rezoning Crest View. The line has been crossed. The pro-business members stated that the Crest View residential neighborhood is not the location for Wal Mart. They looked at this issue long and hard. They have stated that the store is better suited near the Fwy or possibly at Rancho View. Putting a discount, store such as Wal Mart, at the right location is a WINIWIN situation. Those in favor of Wal Mart will be satisfied—the City will fulfill its "need for a Wal Mart", and "need for money". "Open Space Costs Money" The open space at Crest View is actually an investment. A Youth Sports complex is being considered/planned for Central Park. What will it cost to build? I urge everyone of you to look at the Crest View open space, and envision baseball, soccer, and football games there. All the site needs to get started are goal posts and lockers. There is plenty of parking along Talbert and in the school's parking lot. Crest View is ready for sports fields, and the facility could be rented or purchased at a discount from the Ocean View M Josephson/Crest View United 12/9/98 P2/2 School District. With the population and Youth Sports needs going up, it is an investment to keep Crest View. "The City needs the income of$200.000" Granted, there is always a need for money, but what will it cost the City and its citizens to obtain this income? The net effect will most likely be negative. (As it stands,the estimated $200,000 is most likely a"stretch", as Wal Mart will do everything in its power to begin capturing sales from local businesses. Remember the income projections forecast for the swap meet at McFadden/Graham, and the income to be had from Frisbee golfers at Central Park.) This estimated $200K equals approximately $1 per resident— less than the cost of a cup of Joe at Starbucks. Is $1 worth the increased traffic on Beach and surrounding streets—affecting emergency vehicles,tourists, downtown businesses, and commuters? Is $1 worth the extra police coverage required? Is $1 worth loosing forever the open space for a school, sports fields, and a neighborhood? Is $1 worth the vacant stores that will result from Wal Mart? If stores lose just 15% of their sales (their profit), they will close. Is $1 worth the price of an empty box at Crest View—if Wal Mart closes. Sales via the Internet can affect even Wal Mart. Wal Marts have closed in locations throughout the U.S. Please examine this proiect carefully, and weigh the affects against the hopeful gains. Wal Mart at Crest View does not make sense, and the Planning Commission has voted as such. Sincerely, Marvin Josephson Co-Chair Crest View United Huntington Beach,9 December, 1998 Subject: Zoning Map Amendment No. 97-1 Attention: All City Council Members We own our home and live in the Crest View School district. Although, at least East of Beach Boulevard, discount-shopping outlets are abundant in Huntington Beach, our principle argument is not with Wal Mart itself. Proposed re-zoning the Crest View School property remains the core issue surrounding this conflict. 1. Any"Big Box" commercial development would surely be incompatible with the truly residential character of this area,not to mention the cemetery and church across the street. 2. The conclusions of the EiR exposed significant impacts on the quality of life in the project area, which could not be mitigated 3. There were compelling reasons for the Planning Commission to deny a Wal Mart development at the Crest View School site. 4. The OVSB would be the only benefactor if rezoning were to pass. Anticipated sales tax revenues to the city are questionable at best. 5. To lose the only bit of open space in the area adversely affects the children-again! 6. Recent projections by the Fed. Dept. of Education show a need for 30,000 additional classrooms in California over the next 10 years. Overcrowding in some schools within the OVSD was reported this fall. What is this going to look like 10 years from no,.,.-? 7. An active roll for the Crest View neighborhood representatives in the formulation of a re-use plan for the"surplus" school was never realized. Hence, an inherently difficult task of finding a bal- anced solution has been compounded by the contemptuous posture of the OVSD management. 8. Few would argue the need to improve the tax base for our city. It would, however, expose a serious lack of communal vision and demonstrate a deficit of fiscal imagination on the part of community leaders if we have to take such extreme steps and convert public schools into discount retail outlets to raise necessary revenues. My family and I urge you to vote"NO"on the proposed re-zoning of the of the Crest View School site. Manfred C.Kunze 8401 Trade«znd Circle Huntington Beach, CA 92646 cuyI2/VWVBn d r t F000JLESS.

Year 2020 analysis contains contradictory conclusions that at least two locations have improvement in their LOS by adding project trips over existing conditions without the project. Simply adding trips to an intersection without some form of mitigation or offsetting improvement cannot improve the LOS. This may be a simple oversight in the quality control review, but it casts doubt on other elements of the study, such as traffic projections along Talbert Avenue. 2. Use of HCM methodology for LOS analysis is inconsistent with standards used in Orange County. The HCM methodology utilizes factors such as type of coordination assumed, progression factors, and increased saturation flow rates above the 1,700 vph utilized in ICU methodology. For example, use of HCM methodology improves the LOS at the intersection of Beach Blvd. and Slater Ave. from"F" to"D"; therefore, a conclusion of no mitigation requirements is reached. Since Beach Blvd. is a CMP route, LOS "F" requires attention to mitigation or placement on a deficiency plan. 3. The proposed mitigation measures included in the EIR need to be better defined as to the type of mitigation, the cost, the "fair share" contribution, and the impacts on right-of-way, operation, circulation, etc., of implementing such mitigation measures. 4. Refer to comment Nos. 1 and 3 above. 5. Refer to comment No. 1 above. 6. Trip distribution and assignment to Talbert Avenue does not adequately address the regional access nature of this roadway. In the traffic analysis, 59% of the project trips are assigned to Talbert Avenue east of the proposed development. While this appears reasonable, the distribution of most of these trips (42% of the total) is assigned to Newland Street just before entering Fountain Valley. Newland Street provides no direct access to regional transportation facilities such as 1-405; whereas, Talbert Avenue and gagnolia Street provide access to 1-405. As a comparison, none of the cumulative projects identified in the study assigns any significant amount of traffic to Newland Street. In fact, one cumulative project near the Walmart site assigns 35% of its traffic to Talbert Avenue and only 4% to Newland Street. This is a significant inconsistency that effectively reduces the traffic projections on Talbert Avenue in Fountain Valley and, hence, the project's traffic impact and commensurate "fair share" contribution to mitigation.

The question before you comes down to economics. Should the City allow variances, deviations to ordinances, or change zoning if the project proponents suggest they might locate their business elsewhere unless they receive those changes? A good response to such "subtle suggestions" might be that a community's image is important to its economic well-being. The best places to live, work, and visit are those places that are willing to uphold their standards in the face of pressure to allow lowest common denominator development. The bottom line for most businesses is securing access to profitable trade areas. They evaluate locations based on their economic potential. If they are required to address local design, landscaping, signage or zoning requirements, they will usually do so. It is important to recognize that all development is =created equal. Too many communities, this one included, delude themselves into thinking that it doesn't really matter whether a project is good or bad, consistent with the local plan or inconsistent, so long as it produces jobs and tax collection opportunities. How often have we heard officials express the opinion that imposing standards to assure high quality growth will scare away economic development? The truth is just the opposite. According to the book, Planning America's Communities: Paradise Found? Paradise Lost?, "quality development wants no part of an unstable, unplanned, uncontrolled environment as they know this is not a place to make a long-term investment." In our city for example, we have developed an excellent comprehensive general plan, and the zoning ordinance has been recently reviewed and updated. Now lets suppose that a developer has obtained an option on a large parcel and says that a large company is considering locating here. All that is needed is rezoning--think of all the jobs and tax revenue this project will create--we are told. But this company is looking at other communities so if they don't get a speedy rezoning, they may go elsewhere. Does this sound familiar? It can be hard to say no to the promise of immediate jobs and development, but successful communities understand that when they say no to development that is contrary to the long-term health of their community, they will almost always get better development in its place. We thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Sally sham President, HBT xc: Media Dec 11 98 04: 37p Keeton K.

Land Use Compatibility- In order to alleviate impacts of the proposed project on the adjacent residences, extraordinary measures are being considered.Huge noise and visual block walls will be needed to mitigate project noise,lighting,visual, and air pollution impacts.Though they are meant to mitigate,the extensive height of perimeter walls as well as the shadows cast by those walls will cause, according to the E1R, a significant adverse impact on the existing adjacent residential community.The Environmental Board suggests that the noise walls as mitigation be considered environmentally infeasible because of the significant unavoidable adverse impact they create. Numerous options have been explored through the planning process,including different orientation of the structures on the site,a smaller commercial development footprint,a different project site,and others that would provide additional transitional space(buffer)between the project and existing residential area.The Board believes that the California Environmenud Quality Act and good planning practice require the Council to seriously consider alternatives that will achieve a greater degree of compatibility. Loss of Open Space -The Crestview EIR concludes that the loss of open space is considered a significant unavoidable adverse impact of the project,and the Environmental Board agrees. We commented previously that though we agree with the conclusion, the EIR has not provided important information about the cumulative loss of open space that may occur. The EIR showed that the area of the project is presently deficient in park and recreational acreage based on 1996 population but did not consider projected or cumulative park and recreation needs. In developing the rationale for making a Statement of Overriding Considerations for this impact,the Board believes it is imperative that the Council fully consider the future ramifications of this unavoidable loss of open space resources. The Environmental Board,through recent study session,presented to the Planning Commission a proposal to establish a City-wide open space policy. Specifically, the policy recognizes that open space (which includes a broader inventory of lands than what is designated as open space under the general plan)is a finite resource in the City.Projects that affect such lands should be required to mitigate for the loss on an acre-for-acre basis. The Planning Commission directed the Environmental Board to meet with staff to further develop such a policy,and such meetings are planned for January 1999. However, the Board believes that the proposed project would qualify as one that should mitigate for loss of open space resources on an acre-for-acre basis. In conclusion,if the City Council chooses to move forward with the proposal,the Environmental Board recommends that the Council 1) mitigate the land use incompatibility by requiting additional buffering of the established residenti4�uues from the projectes visual, noise, light, and air pollution impacts, and 2) require the Applicant or the SchoQ63is*kt to mitigate for the loss of open space. o C-) rn x Sincerely, c_% Z��C:Se MC:)etary D Environmental Board - % D r ®� CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH INTER-DEPARTMENT COMMUNICATION TO: Mayor and City Council VIA: Ray Silver, City Administrator y FROM: David C. Biggs, Director of Economic Development DATE: December 11, 1998 SUBJECT: Information Regarding Wal*Mart Attached is supplemental information regarding Wal*Mart which we have recently received from our consultants. This information is provided to answer remaining questions and provide the background information for City staffs economic analysis on Wal*Mart. Further, a letter from Wal*Mart is also.attached which discusses the performance of their Westminster store. The first consultant letter, from Stan Hoffman, explains the higher sales for the proposed Huntington Beach Wal*Mart as compared to his 1996 estimate for the Westminster Wal*Mart. The other consultant's report, from The Sedway Group, gives more detail and background about their estimates for Wal*Mart sales and where those sales would come from. This report concludes that up to $42.6 million in new taxable sales for the City of Huntington Beach will result from the Wal*Mart and 3 pads on the project site.

We cannot disclose the sales of specific stores, as that information is considered proprietary. However, I can tell you that, based on the performance of our Westminster store, we expect this store will meet and/or exceed the estimates of Stan Hoffman. 1 thought I'd also share with you some observations made by our Orange County District Manager Nick Fiello. Mr. Fiello tells me the Westminster store, which opened this past May, reminds him very much of the Cerritos store at start-up. The Cerritos store, as you may know, has been a very successful store for us in California. Again, let me reiterate our interest in and commitment to opening a successful Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store. We look forward to serving this community.

Hoffman Associates RE: Response to Comments Regarding Wal-Mart Economic Study The following memorandum addresses your question regarding the difference in our estimate of Wal-Mart sales per square foot for the Westminister store versus the proposed Huntington Beach store. Clarifications and responses are listed below: 1. The Westminster study was dated November 15, 1996 and used a total retail sales per square foot estimate of$271 while the Huntington Beach study was dated April 10, 1998 and used a total retail sales per square foot estimate of$319, which is about 18 percent higher. Non-taxable retail sales were estimated at 10 percent. 2. Over the time difference between the two studies, the inflation index increased by about 3 percent. This is a small part of the difference. 3. However, the main reason for the difference is the 14 percent higher median household income for the Huntington Beach Primary Market Area(PMA) compared with Westminister's. 4. The estimated Huntington Beach PMA median household income was$59,687 which is about 14 percent above the estimated income figure of$52,335 for the Westminister PMA. (Our study used a 1995 median household income figure of$50,811 which was increased by 3 percent to $52,335 for 1997.) S. When the 1.03 inflation factor increase is multiplied times the 1.14 factor difference between Huntington Beach's median household income in the PMA and Westminister's, the overall increase for the Huntington Beach PMA is about 1.17. Stanley R. Hoffman Associates December 5, 1998 Jim Lamb Response to Comments Regarding Wal-Mart's Sales per Square Foot page 2 6. Based on your recent study of six Wal-Mart stores in Southern California, the average taxable sales per square foot was $294. Is this is factored up by 90 percent, assuming 10 percent non-taxable sales, then the estimated sales per square foot is $327. This is about 3 percent higher than the estimate of$319 which I used for the Huntington Beach analysis. Please call me if you have additional questions. CC.

WHAT IS A REASONABLE TARGET SALES VOLUME FOR THE PROPOSED WAL-MART STORE? The City of Huntington Beach and Sedway Group together examined the performance of six Wal-Mart stores which are modern format outlets constructed in the 1990s in Southern California. Each of the stores examined has had a few years of operational history and appears to have reached stabilized performance. These stores are achieving estimated total annual sales volumes as of fiscal year' 1997/1998 of between$31 and$54 million for sizes ranging behveen 124,000 and 147,000 square feet. Sales per square foot ranged from$247 to$396 annually,averaging$325 per square foot. The figures above assume that I0 percent of each store's sales are non-taxable. Hence,taxable sales ranged from $28 to$48 million, or from $222 to $356 per square foot annually. Of the six stores examined, Sedway Group believes that two are not comparable to the Huntington Beach location. They are located in emerging markets with relatively low population density. While they are likely to perform quite well in the future,their sales volumes in 1997/1998 reflect locations that are far from mature. Thus, Sedway Group analyzed the four store locations that we believe to be the most comparable to Huntington Beach.These stores are achieving estimated total annual sales volumes as of fiscal year' 1997/1998 of between $48 and $54 million for sizes ranging between 124,000 and 147,000 square feet. Sales per square foot ranged from $342 to $396 annually, averaging $365. The figures above assume that 10 percent of each store's sales are non-taxable.Hence,taxable sales ranged from $43 to $48 million,or from $307 to$356 per square foot annually. According to various market analyst reports, Wal-Mart is having a very good year through the third quarter 1998. Same store sales increased by 8.0 percent at Wal-Mart discount stores in October 1998 over the same period in 1997. If fiscal year 1998/1999 maintain this rate of growth at the stores examined,the four large stores will achieve total sales in the$52 to$58 million range,or between$369 and $428 per square foot. Sedway Group has defined the primary market area for the proposed Wal-Mart store as indicated on the attached map.As indicated,the market area primarily comprises the City of Huntington Beach, but also includes most of Fountain Valley, a portion of Westminster, and the unincorporated area of Midway City.This market area definition has been determined by distance,travel patterns and access, 'From July l to June 30. 'From July I to June 30. MARKET ASSESSMENT OF WAL-MART STORE 1 DECEMBER 1990o SEDWAY GROUP Real Estate and Urban Economics and competitive retailing.The total area has an estimated 1998 population of 302,000 residing in nearly 108,000 households. Median household income within this market area is estimated at S60,000. The primary market area for the proposed Wal-Mart is quite substantial,reflecting the high density of population characteristic of northern and central Orange County. Sedway Group projects that the proposed 138,490-square-foot Wal-Mart,' located within a strong high-density trade area,will achieve a sales volume that is similar to other newly developed stores in Southern California.Its central location to the market area population,and location off Beach Boulevard at a major intersection,will contribute to its success. Thus, a total sales volume of$44 million in 1998 dollars upon first year of stabilized performance in 2001 is a realistic but conservative projection. For the 138,490-square-foot store,this volume equates to $319 per square foot, a volume that is substantially below the four Southern California outlets discussed above,with projected 1998/1999 volumes of$369 to$428 per square foot. Assuming 10 percent non-taxable sales,taxable sales should easily total$40 million annually,or$287 per square foot. In addition to the Wal-Mart store, three pad outlets are planned, including one family restaurant, one fast-food outlet,and 5,500 square feet of retail space,for a total of 14,500 square feet. Forecasts for an average sales volume of$317 per square foot, or $4.6 million annually, is quite reasonable and is consistent with pad performance at other similar retail centers in California. We have assumed that all of these sales are taxable. In summary,Sedway Group conservatively projects that the Wal-Mart project as proposed will generate $48.6 million annually in sales, including both the Wal-Mart store and developed pads. Taxable sales are estimated to total $44.6 million annually. WHERE ARE THE SALES PROJECTED TO COME FROM BY COMMUNITY? Sedway Group projects that sales for the proposed Wal-Mart store will be derived from market area residents as follows: Huntington Beach $27.5 million 63% Fountain Valley $ 8.5 million 19% Westminster $ 4.0 million 9% Midway City $ 0.5 million 1% Other $ 3.5 million 8% Total: $44.0 million 100% As would be expected by its location, the proposed Wal-Mart is projected to derive 63 percent of its sales from residents of Huntington Beach, or$27.5 million annually. Fountain Valley is likely to be a major source of shoppers, comprising 19 percent of sales.The remainder will be derived from other ' Assumes no tire and lube facility will be provided. MARKET ASSESSMENT OF WAL-MART STORE 2 DECEMBER 1998 SEDWAY GROUP Real Estate and Urban Economics market area residents, from employees within the City of Huntington Beach, and from other residents of surrounding communities. WHERE ARE THE SALES PROJECTED TO BE DIVERTED FROM BY COMMUNITY? Huntington Beach residents have long conducted much of their shopping outside the community. In a study conducted for Huntington Beach last April,Sedway Group estimated that the city is experiencing substantial leakage to other communities in several key categories, including general merchandise, apparel and specialty stores.In particular,the general merchandise category experienced considerable leakage of over $86 million in 1996, or 43 percent of total sales generated by Huntington Beach residents.In all likelihood,this figure has worsened in the interim,with the opening of a new Wal-Mart store in Westminster.This erosion of sales in general merchandise has been evolving over many years. In addition to the new Wal-Mart in Westminster, recent competition includes the opening of a Sam's Club and Price/Costco in Fountain Valley in the early 1990s and the opening of a major Target store in Westminster in the mid-1980s. Huntington Beach is poorly served by general merchandise retailers, and this lack of supply is responsible for the substantial leakage in this category. In Sedway Group's opinion,the city has only one large successful general merchandise outlet-a Target store located in the southeastern portion of the city.Although the store is not in a central location, it is a strong operation and is quite popular.Two other large general merchandise retailers are achieving moderate performance: l. Montgomery Ward,a department store that has long served as a major anchor to Huntington Beach Mall, is not performing well, as is typical of the store nationally. 2. Kmart, located southwest of the subject property, has been performing poorly. As with Montgomery Ward, Kmart has not been competing well nationally. However, the chain is starting to make some improvements,which could bode well for the store's future. The proposed Wal-Mart will compete primarily with the Target and Wal-Mart stores in Westminster. Secondary competition will be with the Sam's Club and Price/Costco club stores in Fountain Valley and the Target and Kmart stores in Huntington Beach.Montgomery Ward,already performing marginally, will provide little competition to the Wal-Mart. Sedway Group projects that the proposed Wal-Mart will divert sales of Huntington Beach residents from stores in market area communities as follows: Westminster 50% $14.0 million Fountain Valley 20% $ 5.5 million Huntington Beach 25% $ 7.0 million Other 5% 1.0 million Total: 100% $27.5 million MARKET ASSESSMENT OF WAL-MART STORE 3 DECEMBER 1998 I i SEDWAY GROUP Real Estate and Urban Economics market area residents,from employees within the City of Huntington Beach,and from other residents of surrounding communities.

The United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 324 represents approximately 1.440 grocery store workers in Huntington Beach. These members work in the following stores: Ralphs. Vons. Pavilions. Albertson's. Lucky/Sav-On. Stater Bros.. and Hughes Markets. I have put together the following chart based on information obtained from a report prepared by Robert E. Goldman entitled "A Reexamination of Some Kev Impacts of a Wal-Mart Store in the City of San Leandro" (April 1997), in which he refers to a study conducted by The Sedway Group, "Economic Analysis of the Impact of High Volume Retail on San Jose. " Because the Sedway Group has done work for the City on the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart project (_September 23. 1998), 1 thought using tigures from this study would be appropriate. While these figures may vary somewhat for Southern California. they are similar and therefore. applicable. For your convenience, I have included excerpts from the Goldman Report on employment impacts as well as the Sedway memorandum to the City of Huntington Beach. I hope this material will prove useful to you. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. I may be reached at: (714) 840-1231. Sincerely, _Dan Kittredge Enclosures V. IMPACTS ON EMPLOYMENT A. The Sedway Study In 1995 the Sedway Group (then SKMG) conducted a study of issues related to the impact of high-volume retailers to help the City of San Jose develop policies on the future introduction of such retailers. As a small part of that study (Economic Analysis of the Impact of High Volume Retail on San Jose), the Sedway Group briefly examined Income and Employment trade-offs. While comprising only two pages in a lengthy report, the conclusions of that brief analysis have been widely quoted—or misquoted--as saying that the compensation from Big Box retailers was comparable to that of all other retail. Based upon a review of that part of the Sedway study and a review of retailing in Alameda County, such an inference is totally without foundation. The Sedway study looked only at wage income paid by two retailers in Santa Clara County, and compared these data with data published in County Business Patterns for Santa Clara County. B. Choice of Sampie Only two retailers provided wage information in response to a Sedway request for compensation information: Orchard Supply Hardware (OSH) and Price Costco. OSH sales personnel wages ranged from S530 to $8.00 per hour. Price Costco reported starting wages at S8.27 per hour. The Sedway study noted that the Price Costco starring wage of S8.27 per hour is equivalent to an annual wage of S17.200 (for a full-time employee) and noted that this was slightly more than the countywide "average retail income". Great caution needs to be applied, however, to any generalization of these compensation figures to other big box retailers. :Many Price Costco stores are unionized and all pay union-competitive wages. The Price Club stores were organized by the Teamsters Union prior the merger of Price Club and Costco. The Teamsters continue to represent these stores. The Costco stores provide essentially the same compensation package. Wal-Mart's wages are far below Price Costco with starting wages at $6.00 per hour for floor sales personnel. For a full-time worker $6.00 per hour is equivalent to UZ480 annually. Based on these data alone, it is safe to say that the statement "gages paid at high volume retailers are comparable to wages paid by traditional retailers" is simply incorrect when applied to Wal-Mart 13 C. Limitations of the Cowuy Business Patterns Data The "number of emplovees' shown in CBP data is the total count of persons on the payroll for the payroll period that includes March 12. Part time and full time employees are both included. The "annual payroll" figure is the total wages paid in a calendar year (i.e.January 1 through December 31). Dividing the "payroll" figure by the "employees" figure may or may not provide a reasonable approximation of average (mean) wages. To the extent that the "number of employees" includes pan time workers, the resulting "payroll per employee" will understate annual full-time equivalent earnings and, thus, not provide a consistent basis for comparison with annual full-time equivalent earnings derived from annualizing an hourly wage rate as the Sedway study did. D. Retail Compensation Patterns The Sedway study compared Price Costco's compensation rate with payroll per employee in Santa Clara County for all retail categories not those for stores carrying comparable merchandise. Table V-1 below shows the County Business Pattern data for Retail Trade for Alameda County in 1994. The table presents data for the entire retail trade category, for each of the eight two4git SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) groups within Retail Trade and for selected four-digit SIC groups within some of the two-digit groups. Several important conclusions can be derived from the table. First, payroll per employee across all retail groups in Alameda County in 1994 was $18,348. significantly higher than the S17,200 Price Costco annual equivalent found by the Sedway study and far higher than the 511,440 to S12,480 starting annual equivalent paid by Wal-Mart One of the most interesting things shown by the table is the very wide range of compensation that occurs in the retail industry. At the two-digit SIC group level, annual payroll per employee runs from under S10,000 per year (in the Eating and Drinking P12 group) to over S30,000 per year (in the Automotive and Service Stations group). It is clear from this large variation that characterizing the entire retail group by a single "average" compensation estimate can be very misleading. In fact, the variation among retail groups is so large and the groups so disparate that the concept of"traditional retailing" is best avoided. By far the largest two-digit retail group is Eating and Drinking Plates, comprising about 113 of total retail employment as shown in the table. This group also has the lowest payroll per employee at S9,768. The low payroll per employee figure reflects both the very low wages paid by fast-food retailers such as McDonalds as well as the i 14 Table V-1 Annual Payroll.

The influence of the Eating and Drinking Places group in dragging down the oayroil per employee figure for the total retail trade group is substantial. If the eating and drinking places group is dropped from the retail trade group total. then the overall payroll per employee would jump from S18,348 to S22,639. It is worth noting that payroll per employee among Grocery Stores and Drug Stores and Proprietary Stores are S20,877 and S22,876 respectively, both substantially above the figure for Total Retail Trade. As noted earlier in this report Wal-Mart competes directly with both of these groups and both would be adversely impacted by a Wal-Mart entry in San Leandro. E. Comparative Wages Based on information from the Union City and Milpitas stores. Wal-Mart's beginning compensation is either S5.50 or S6.00 per hour with the higher rate for sales jobs. At 90 days, employees receive a 4% to 6% increase. Most receive a S.25 per hour increase. The same wage increase next occurs at the end of one year. Thus, in the second year of employment, the typical sales employee receives S630 per hour. Thus, in the second year a Wal-Mart sales employee working 40-hours per week for the full year would expect to earn S13,520 in wages. Under the Food Store Contract there are three general types of employees in unionized food stores (including Safeway and Lucky) • Food Clerks. • General Merchandise Clerks, • Courtesy Clerks. In the second year of employment, Experienced Food Clerks earn a regular hourly rate of $15.834. The annual equivalent (without considering Sunday or holiday differentials,overtime or shift premiums)would be S32,935. Experienced General Merchandise Clerics — generally in their third year of worst — earn a regular hourly rate of S10.455. 'Ile annualized equivalent would be S21,746. Courtesy Clerics earn a regular hourly rate of S6.745. The annualized equivalent would be $14,030. Hours worked on Sundays and holidays as well as overtime lours earn 1.5 times the base pay for all types of workers. All workers also earn an additional S.50 per hour premium for work at night(generally any hours worked between 7 p.m.and 7 a.m.). 16 There are a small number of other job classifications beyond those discussed above including Store Manager, Assistant Manager, Senior Head Clerk, Senior Product Clerk, etc. All of these jobs pay well above the houriv rate for Experienced Clerk shown above. For example, a Senior Produce Clerk earns a regular hourly rate of $16.377 per hour(or an annualized rate of 534,064). In Alameda County, the typical food store covered by the Food Store Contract has 52% Food Clerks, 24% General Merchandise Clerks and 24% Courtesy Clerks (excluding Store Managers and Assistant Managers). This work force composition yields a blended average hourly pay rate of$123617 or an annualized rate of S25,712 far above Wal-Mart's compensation rate. In comparing wage compensation between Wal-Mart and the Food Store Contract, it should be noted that employee turnover in unionized grocery stores is low while turnover in big box retailers is high. Therefore, employees are hikely to be higher on the experience scale and therefore be compensated accordingly in a food store than in a big box retailer. The clerks in San Leandro covered food stores are with few exceptions going to be at the Experienced Clerk level. It also should be noted that the average hours worked per week (or per month, or per year) are far higher in unionized food stores than in Wal-Mart. Based on 1996 data for Alameda County derived from participation in benefit funds, the average hours worked per week for all employees was-35.2 While similar data are not readily available for Wal-Mart, data compiled by the UFCW national Research Office show that 34 percent of Wal-Mart's employees were not eligible for health insurance in 1994 meaning either that they were recent hires or they worked less than 28 hours per week. F. Comparative Benefits This section compares employee benefits provided by Wal-Mart with those provided under the Alameda County Food Store Contract. The benefits described below are for full-time workem It should be noted that while there are very substantial differences in medical and dental benefits under the plans offered by Wal-Mart and the Food Stop.Contract, no attempt has been made to evaluate differences in benefits and medical coverage. The focus of the analysis is on the differences in costs to the employm Information on Wal-Mart benefits was derived from various company documents including BENEFI Ts FOR EIJGIBLE WAL-MART ASSOCU7ES (Mare 1, 1995). Information on Food Store benefits was derived from information supplied by UFCW, Local 970 including Food Stone Convxw; March 1, 1992-March 4, 1998. 17 Eligibility There are significant differences in eligibility requirements between Wai-Mart and the Food Store Contract and significant differences in employee participation in various benefit programs. In general. Wal-Mart employees must work 28 or more hours per week to qualify for benefits in contrast to the Food Store Contract where virtually all employees are eligible to participate at some level. Based on 1993 data compiled by the UFCW national Research Office, about 41.2 percent of Wal-Mart's total employee population was covered under Wal-Mart's company health plan. In contrast, 90.8 percent of Safeway's Northern California employees were covered by its health insurance programs in 1994. In an October 24. 1996 article on variations in health care benefits from industry to industry, the Wall Street Journal noted: "At Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. stiff eligibility rules and high prices already leave many employees uncovered by the company's `Personal Choice' health plan. Only 43 % of Wal-Mart's 628,000 workers were covered in the fiscal year ended in January." Paid Holidays • Wal-Mart: 6 paid holidays annually • Food Store Contract: 9 paid holidays annually Vacation • Wal-Mart: 1 week of vacation after one year of employment • Food Store Contract 2 weeks of vacation after one year of employment Sick Leave • Wal-Mart Sick leave accrues at the rate of .023077 hours for each hour worked (approximately 4 hours per month) to a maximum of 192 hours (24 days). No cash pay out for sick leave time accrued in excess of maximum. • Food Store Contract Sick leave accrues at the rate of 6 hours per month to a maximum of 45 days. Employees receive an annual cash pay out for sick leave in excess of maximum. 18 Madical Insurance • Wal-Mart Offers medical insurance with employee sharing in premium payment. Four deductible options are offered ranging from S2.50 to S1000 each with employee rate varying according to option. Employee part of the premium ranges from SSSO to S18S0 bi-weekly depending upon deductible. employee pays full premium for any dependents included in medical coverage. Plan includes employee co-insurance. • Food Store Contract Employer pays full premium for employee and for all dependents. No deducible and no co-insurance. Denm1 Insurance • Wal-Mart: Employee shares in premium payment for employee dental insurance ($2S0 bi-weekly) and pays ail of the premium for dependents. Plan includes an annual deductible and co-insurai.-d. • Food Store Contract Employer pays full premium for employee and for all dependents. No deductible and no co-insurance. Rtkxmau • Wal-Mart Offers an Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Company pays 15% of employee company stock purchases to an annual maximum stock purchase of $1,800. (For a full-time employee this would translate into an annual maximum of about S.13 per hour.) • Food Store Contract Provides a defined benefit retirement plan. Employers contribution is S137 per hour. Other • Wal-Mart: Offers employee-paid life insurance. Provides small profit-sharing plan. Provides'employee discount card which entitles employee to 10% discount on Wal-Mart purchases of most regularly priced merchandise. • Food Store Contract: Provides no-cost vision insurance coverage. Provides retiree medical insurance coverage. 19 SEDWAY GROUP Can ECcnC^r1cs : MEM0RANDU11 TO: David Bias 3tnrvn .,etcn nov,e K '.'araerur^ zacetr FROM: .flan Billinasiey S•^neicerrnan Sea:fav :..- DATE: September=_- 1998 Sam, :.,. _•: �avisor SUBJECT: Response to Questions Posed by Commissioner Kerins Recardin= :t'al-Mart Application l:3\'C C\3;i1lP.C^. :SS��S . :SCQ 0'. l�JI11n1ISSi011c. to .inpiicatioil. as ibllo%%'s: • Projected sales capture by %Val-ivlart from competitive Westminster •:aiue-e-ier,ted ;enerai merchandise stores.

Fiscal Impact of FIipping Wal-Mart Assuming that Val-Mart accepts a location on the western end of the site,and assuming strong.signage, this siting change is unlikely to have a substantial impact on fiscal revenues generated by the store. However.this siting would have a substantial impact on the feasibility of the pads,due to their reduced visibility and distance from Beach Boulevard. In addition, the project could be Jeopardized through diminished income from the pad sites, due to their inferior iocation. Developers typically maize their economics feasible.given relatively low rents paid by major anchors.through reiativei.'hi_eh rents from small retailers on pads.

The speaker was comparing his neighborhood near Golden West Community College with its playing fields and open space and the weekend swap meets which take place there,to our neighborhood and a 24 Wal Mart (with no open space in sight) and not one ounce of buffer. There is no comparison. I have always been under the impression that staff and city employees are supposed to conduct themselves during the council meetings with impartiality and that they are there to advise council on the various subjects that come up during council meetings. I expect any person in such as position as Mr. Beardsley would be more attuned to what is proper and what is improper behavior during council meetings.

Therefore, the following option is provided as an alternative to mitigate the loss of passive neighborhood recreational open space at Crest View School: I. Central Park—Improve 3.5 Acres for Passive Recreation A. In order to qualify as mitigation: 1. Must be currently unimproved. 2. Must be currently unfunded for improvement. B. Currently 16 unimproved acres available on west side of Goldenwest Street. C. Mitigation as follows: 1. Prior to issuance of building permit, a total of 3.5 acres of currently unimproved land at Central Park shall be improved for passive recreational use. The 3.5 acres shall be improved with an approved irrigation system, turf, trees, and shall be compatible with other passive areas within Central Park to the satisfaction of the Director of Public Works and Community Services Director. In the event the City Council determines that neither the Lambert Park mitigation or Central Park alternative mitigation is adequate, then the loss of passive recreational open space becomes an unmitigated significant impact. This significant impact would therefore not be mitigated and must be added to the Statement of Overriding Considerations in order to adopt the resolution and certify the environmental impact report.

Year 2020 analysis contains contradictory conclusions that at least two locations have improvement in their LOS by adding project trips over existing conditions without the project. Simply adding trips to an intersection without some form of mitigation or offsetting improvement cannot improve the LOS. This may be a simple oversight in the quality control review, but it casts doubt on other elements of the study, such as traffic projections along Talbert Avenue. 2. Use of HCM methodology for LOS analysis is inconsistent with standards used in Orange County. The HCM methodology utilizes factors such as type of coordination assumed, progression factors, and increased saturation flow rates above the 1,700 vph utilized in ICU methodology. For example, use of HCM methodology improves the LOS at the intersection of Beach Blvd. and Slater Ave. from"F"to"D"; therefore, a conclusion of no mitigation requirements is reached. Since Beach Blvd. is a CMP route, LOS "F" requires attention to mitigation or placement on a deficiency plan. 3. The proposed mitigation measures included in the EIR need to be better defined as to the type of mitigation, the cost, the "fair share" contribution, and the impacts on right-of-way, operation, circulation, etc., of implementing such mitigation measures. 4. Refer to comment Nos. 1 and 3 above. 5. Refer to comment No. 1 above. 6. Trip distribution and assignment to Talbert Avenue does not adequately address the regional access nature of this roadway. In the traffic analysis, 59% of the project trips are assigned to Talbert Avenue east of the proposed development. While this appears reasonable, the distribution of most of these trips (42% of the total) is assigned to Newland Street just before entering Fountain Valley. Newland Street provides no direct access to regional transportation facilities such as 1-405; whereas, Talbert Avenue and 1V(agnolia Street provide access to 1-405. As a comparison, none of the cumulative projects identified in the study assigns any significant amount of traffic to Newland Street. In fact, one cumulative project near the Walmart site assigns 35% of its traffic to Talbert Avenue and only 4% to Newland Street. This is a significant inconsistency that effectively reduces the traffic projections on Talbert Avenue in Fountain Valley and, hence, the project's traffic impact and commensurate "fair share" contribution to mitigation.

Balancing the Community A%eecls Dear Honorable Nilayor Green and Councilmembcrs, Without speculating as to what the final decision will be regarding the approval of a Wal Mart on the Crest Vicw site, I have complete faith that our City Council will approach the question with the same degree of sincerity and integrity which has been evident during HDTV-3 broadcasts of discussions on past issues and problems facing the City. 1 am proud to be able to claim that I have lived in Orange.County for over thirty years, having happily spent the last ten years as a resident of Huntington Beach However. like many residents of Southern California. 1 don't have to go very far to see areas blighted and crime ridden. because of poor planning, lack of fiscal responsibility, and Failure of local representatives to balance community needs. As representatives of a city with over 190,000 residents,your report card is essentially based on reaching decisions Which balance the community needs at large Unfortunately, in consideration of the future of the Crest View site. the factual foundation needed for solving the problem has become somewhat obscured in an emotional and divisive dilllellslufl. Even though I have chosen to support development of the site with a revenue generating business, which would create over '25 jobs, benefit schools, city services, and retail needs; that does not exclude me from having empathy for the residents adjacent to the site,who I understand - have proposed building a park However, in a search to find a solution which provides the highest and best use of the site, i believe there are some facts that both opponents and proponents can agree upon First, verifiable facts will reveal an acceptable (in my Opinion exceptional)number of parks and total recreational acreage designated for residents of Huntington Reach, in relation to size and population of other comparable cities. Additionally,there should be another fact that is indisputable, the site is in a rapidly deteriorating state. I believe the school district could provide a more precise fact sheet, which will include a high ,and increasing) count of broken windows. indicating loitering resulting in a laundry list of crimes and opportunities for criminal activity Ask any appraiser or property valuation expert,the glaring evidence of vandalism has a negative impact not only the homes adjacent to the site, but also the surrounding neighborhoods and businesses .And if left in it's current state, the problem and economic repercussions will increase proportionately I Believe that development of the site would pact r],Jr.—S the rnrrant and future needs of the community qt In—, Although I have never spoken at a City Council meeting previously. I plan to take two minutes on Nlonday to address the Council as a resident, parent, taxpayer, and consumer a consumer who has noticed a significant increase in the ntnnber of broken windows at the site-while driving down Talbert Ave - on my way to Price Club - in the City of Fountain Valley Sincerely, ,tackle Fantuzo 12/14/98 at 12 14 PM Syncro Connect-Home (714)846-1309 Page: 1 I From the desk of... / Fantuzo, Jackie / II S� Bluenbbon Gifts Fax: (714)846-1309 Voice (714)840-6855 r� City of Huntington Beach, City Clerk Fax Number: 1 714-374-1557 Voice Number: 1 714-536-5511 Subject: • Number of Pages 2 12/14f98 12 13 PM I Copyright 1993-1996 Syncro Development Corp Al rights reserved ` Huntinoton Beach Tomorrow,Inc.

The question before you comes down to economics. Should the City allow variances, deviations to ordinances, or change zoning if the project proponents suggest they might locate their business elsewhere unless they receive those changes? A good response to such "subtle suggestions" might be that a community's image is important to its economic well-being. The best places to live, work, and visit are those places that are willing to uphold their standards in the face of pressure to allow lowest common denominator development. The bottom line for most businesses is securing access to profitable trade areas. They evaluate locations based on their economic potential. If they are required to address local design, landscaping, signage or zoning requirements, they will usually do so. It is important to recognize that all development is =created equal. Too many communities, this one included, delude themselves into thinking that it doesn't really matter whether a project is good or bad, consistent with the local plan or inconsistent, so long as it produces jobs and tax collection opportunities. How often have we heard officials express the opinion that imposing standards to assure high quality growth will scare away economic development? The truth is just the opposite. According to the book, Planning America's Communities: Paradise Found? Paradise Lost?, "quality development wants no part of an unstable, unplanned, uncontrolled environment as they know this is not a place to make a long-term investment." In our city for example, we have developed an excellent comprehensive general plan, and the zoning ordinance has been recently reviewed and updated. Now lets suppose that a developer has obtained an option on a large parcel and says that a large company is considering locating here. All that is needed is rezoning--think of all the jobs and tax revenue this project will create--we are told. But this company is looking at other communities so if they don't get a speedy rezoning, they may go elsewhere. Does this sound familiar? It can be hard to say no to the promise of immediate jobs and development, but successful communities understand that when they say no to development that is contrary to the long-term health of their community, they will almost always get better development in its place. We thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, v/ LSaIllyaham President, HBT xc: Media Dec 11 98 04: 37p Keeton K.

California 926_11t; December 11, 1998 City Council City of Huntington Beach,California 92648 Subject: Proposed WalMart at Crestview School Site Dear Council Members, The Environmental Board has discussed the proposed WalMart project at several previous Board meetings and has also provided written and oral comments to the Planning Commission during their deliberations(please see the Board's letter in the Final EI(;Letter A-2).The Environmental Board believes that the proposed Project is inherently incompatible with the surrounding land use at the Crestview location and that the City cannot afford the unmitigated loss of open space. Land Use Compatibility-in order to alleviate impacts of the proposed project on the adjacent residences, extraordinary measures are being considered.Huge noise and visual block walls will be needed to mitigate project noise,lighting,visual, and air pollution impacts.Though they are meant to mitigate,the extensive height of perimeter walls as well as the shadows cast by those walls will cause, according to the EIR, a significant adverse impact on the existing adjacent residential community.The Environmental Board suggests that the noise walls as mitigation be eonsuicred environmcntally infcarable because of the significant unavoidable adverse impact they create. Numerous options have been explored through the planning process,including different orientation of the structures on the site,a smaller commercial development footprint,a different project site,and others that would provide additional transitional space(buffer)between the project and existing residential area.The Board believes that the California Environmental Quality Act and good planning practice require the Council to seriously consider alternatives that will achieve a greater degree of compatibility. Loss of Open Stmce -The Crestview EIR concludes that the loss of open space is considered a significant unavoidable adverse impact of the project,and the Environmental Board agrees. We commented previously that though we agree with the conclusion, the EIR has not provided important information about the cumulative loss of open space that may occur. The EIR showed that the area of the project is presently deficient in park and recreational acreage based on 1996 population but did not consider projected or cumulative park and recreation needs. In developing the rationale for making a Statement of Overriding Considerations for this impact,the Board believes it is imperative that the Council fully consider the future ramifications of this unavoidable loss of open space resources. The Environmental Board, through recent study session, presented to the Planning Commission a proposal to establish a City-wide open space policy. Specifically, the policy recognizes that open space (which includes a broader inventory of lands than what is designated as open space under the general plan)is a finite resource in the City.Projects that affect such lands should be required to mitigate for the loss on an acre-for-acre basis. The Planning Commission directed the Environmental Board to meet with staff to further develop such a policy,and such meetings are planned for January 1999. However.the Board believes that the proposed project would qualify as one that should mitigate for loss of open space resources on an acre-for-acre basis. In conclusion,if the City Council chooses to move forward with the proposal,the Environmental Board recommends that the Council 1) mitigate the land use incompatibility by requiring additional buffering of the established residenti;Kues from the projectes visual, noise, light, and air pollution impacts, and 2) require the Applicant or the Schog'03istElx to mitigate for the loss of open space. o rn n Sincerely, _ -<c; :C-) > >��=�v Thomas C.Ryan,Sec etary ..

Biggs, Director of Economic Development DATE: December 11, 1998 SUBJECT: Information Regarding Wa1*Mart Attached is supplemental information regarding Wal*Mart which we have recently received from our consultants. This information is provided to answer remaining questions and provide the background information for City staffs economic analysis on Wal*Mart. Further, a letter from Wal*Mart is also attached which discusses the performance of their Westminster store. The first consultant letter, from Stan Hoffman, explains the higher sales for the proposed Huntington Beach Wal*Mart as compared to his 1996 estimate for the Westminster Wal*Mart. The other consultant's report, from The Sedway Group, gives more detail and background about their estimates for Wal*Mart sales and where those sales would come from.

We cannot disclose the sales of specific stores,as that information is considered proprietary. However, I can tell you that, based on the performance of our Westminster store, we expect this store will meet and/or exceed the estimates of Stan Hoffman. I thought I'd also share with you some observations made by our Orange County District Manager Nick Fiello. Mr. Fiello tells me the Westminster store, which opened this past May, reminds him very much of the Cerritos store at start-up. The Cerritos store, as you may know, has been a very successful store for us in California. Again, let me reiterate our interest in and commitment to opening a successful Huntington Beach Wal-Mart store. We look forward to serving this community. Please do no hesitate to call me if you have any further questions.

FM: Stan Hoffman Stanley R. Hoffman Associates RE: Response to Comments Regarding Wal-Mart Economic Study The following memorandum addresses your question regarding the difference in our estimate of Wal-Mart sales per square foot for the Westminister store versus the proposed Huntington Beach store. Clarifications and responses are listed below: 1. The Westminister study was dated November 15, 1996 and used a total retail sales per square foot estimate of$271 while the Huntington Beach study was dated April 10, 1998 and used a total retail sales per square foot estimate of$319,which is about 18 percent higher. Non-taxable retail sales were estimated at 10 percent. 2. Over the time difference between the two studies, the inflation index increased by about 3 percent. This is a small part of the difference. 3. However, the main reason for the difference is the 14 percent higher median household income for the Huntington Beach Primary Market Area(PMA)compared with Westminister's. 4. The estimated Huntington Beach PMA median household income was$59,687 which is about 14 percent above the estimated income figure of$52,335 for the Westminister PMA_ (Our study used a 1995 median household income figure of$50,811 which was increased by 3 percent to $52,335 for 1997.) 5. When the 1.03 inflation factor increase is multiplied times the 1.14 factor difference between Huntington Beach's median household income in the PMA and Westmituster's, the overall increase for the Huntington Beach PMA is about 1.17. Stanley R. Hoffman Associates December 5, 1998 , Jim Lamb Response to Comments Regarding Wal-Mart's Sales per Square Foot page 2 6. Based on your recent study of six Wal-Mart stores in Southern California, the average taxable sales per square foot was $294. Is this is factored up by 90 percent, assuming 10 percent non-taxable sales, then the estimated sales per square foot is $327. This is about 3 percent higher than the estimate of$319 which Y used for the Huntington Beach analysis. Please call me if you have additional questions. CC.

WHAT IS A REASONABLE TARGET SALES VOLUME FOR THE PROPOSED WAL-MART STORE? The City of Huntington Beach and Sedway Group together examined the performance of six Wal-Mart stores which are modern format outlets constructed in the 1990s in Southern California. Each of the stores examined has had a few years of operational history and appears to have reached stabilized performance. These stores are achieving estimated total annual sales volumes as of fiscal year' 1997/1998 of between$31 and$54 million for sizes ranging between 124,000 and 147,000 square feet. Sales per square foot ranged from $247 to$396 annually,averaging$325 per square foot. The figures above assume that 10 percent of each store's sales are non-taxable. Hence,taxable sales ranged from $28 to $48 million,or from $222 to$356 per square foot annually. Of the six stores examined, Sedway Group believes that two are not comparable to the Huntington Beach location. They are located in emerging markets with relatively low population density. While they are likely to perform quite well in the future,their sales volumes in 1997/1998 reflect locations that are far from mature. Thus, Sedway Group analyzed the four store locations that we believe to be the most comparable to Huntington Beach.These stores are achieving estimated total annual sales volumes as of fiscal year' 1997/1998 of between $48 and $54 million for sizes ranging between 124,000 and 147,000 square feet. Sales per square foot ranged from $342 to $396 annually, averaging $365. The figures above assume that 10 percent of each store's sales are non-taxable.Hence,taxable sales ranged from $43 to $48 million, or from $307 to $356 per square foot annually. According to various market analyst reports, Wal-Mart is having a very good year through the third quarter 1998. Same store sales increased by 8.0 percent at Wal-Mart discount stores in October 1998 over the same period in 1997. If fiscal year 1998/1999 maintain this rate of growth at the stores examined,the four large stores will achieve total sales in the$52 to$58 million range,or between$369 and $428 per square foot. Sedway Group has defined the primary market area for the proposed Wal-Mart store as indicated on the attached map.As indicated,the market area primarily comprises the City of Huntington Beach, but also includes most of Fountain Valley, a portion of Westminster, and the unincorporated area of Midway City.This market area definition has been determined by distance,travel patterns and access, 'From July I to June 30. 'From July I to June 30. MARKET ASSESSMENT-OF WAL-MART STORE 1 DECEMCICR 1998 I SEDWAY GROUP Real Estate and Urban Economics and competitive retailing.The total area has an estimated 1998 population of 302,000 residing in nearly 108,000 households. Median household income within this market area is estimated at $60,000. The primary market area for the proposed Wal-Mart is quite substantial, reflecting the high density of population characteristic of northern and central Orange County. Sedway Group projects that the proposed 138,490-square-foot Wal-Mart,'located within a strong high-density trade area,will achieve a sales volume that is similar to other newly developed stores in Southern California.Its central location to the market area population,and location off Beach Boulevard at a major intersection,will contribute to its success. Thus, a total sales volume of$44 million in 1998 dollars upon first year of stabilized performance in 2001 is a realistic but conservative projection. For the 13 8,490-sq uare-foot store, this volume equates to $319 per square foot, a volume that is substantially below the four Southern California outlets discussed above,with projected 1998/1999 volumes of$369 to$428 per square foot. Assuming 10 percent non-taxable sales,taxable sales should easily total$40 million annually,or$287 per square foot. In addition to the Wal-Mart store, three pad outlets are planned, including one family restaurant, one fast-food outlet,and 5,500 square feet of retail space,for a total of 14,500 square feet. Forecasts for an average sales volume of$317 per square foot, or $4.6 million annually, is quite reasonable and is consistent with pad performance at other similar retail centers in California. We have assumed that all of these sales are taxable. In summary,Sedway Group conservatively projects that the Wal-Mart project as proposed will generate $48.6 million annually in sales, including both the Wal-Mart store and developed pads. Taxable sales are estimated to total $44.6 million annually. WHERE ARE THE SALES PROJECTED TO COME FROM BY COMMUNITY? Sedway Group projects that sales for the proposed Wal-Mart store will be derived from market area residents as follows: Huntington Beach $27.5 million 63% Fountain Valley $ 8.5 million 19% Westminster $ 4.0 million 9% Midway City $ 0.5 million 1% Other $ 3.5 million 8% Total: $44.0 million 100% As would be expected by its location,the proposed Wal-Mart is projected to derive 63 percent of its sales from residents of Huntington Beach, or$27.5 million annually. Fountain Valley is likely to be a major source of shoppers, comprising 19 percent of sales. The remainder will be derived from other ' Assumes no tire and lube facility will be provided.

WHERE ARE THE SALES PROJECTED TO BE DIVERTED FROM BY COMMUNITY? Huntington Beach residents have long conducted much of their shopping outside the community. In a study conducted for Huntington Beach last April,Sedway Group estimated that the city is experiencing substantial leakage to other communities in several key categories, including general merchandise, apparel and specialty stores.In particular,the general merchandise category experienced considerable leakage of over $86 million in 1996, or 43 percent of total sales generated by Huntington Beach residents.In all likelihood,this figure has worsened in the interim,with the opening of a new Wal-Mart store in Westminster.This erosion of sales in general merchandise has been evolving over many years. In addition to the new Wal-Mart in Westminster, recent competition includes the opening of a Sam's Club and Price/Costco in Fountain Valley in the early 1990s and the opening of a major Target store in Westminster in the mid-1980s. Huntington Beach is poorly served by general merchandise retailers, and this lack of supply is responsible for the substantial leakage in this category. In Sedway Group's opinion,the city has only one large successful general merchandise outlet-a Target store located in the southeastern portion of the city.Although the store is not in a central location,it is a strong operation and is quite popular.Two other large general merchandise retailers are achieving moderate performance: I. Montgomery Ward, a department store that has long served as a major anchor to Huntington Beach Mall, is not performing well,as is typical of the store nationally. 2. Kmart, located southwest of the subject property, has been performing poorly. As with Montgomery Ward, Kmart has not been competing well nationally. However, the chain is starting to make some improvements,which could bode well for the store's future. The proposed Wal-Mart will compete primarily with the Target and Wal-Mart stores in Westminster. Secondary competition will be with the Sam's Club and Price/Costco club stores in Fountain Valley and the Target and Kmart stores in Huntington Beach.Montgomery Ward,already performing marginally, will provide little competition to the Wal-Mart. Sedway Group projects that the proposed Wal-Mart will divert sales of Huntington Beach residents from stores in market area communities as follows: Westminster 50% $14.0 million Fountain Valley 20% $ 5.5 million Huntington Beach 25% $ 7.0 million Other 5% 1.0 million Total: 100% $27.5 million MARKS"r ASSESSMENT OF WAL-MART STORE 3 DFICEMBER 1999 SEDWAY GROUP Rea!

CA 92648 Faxed to: (562) 938-4059 Via Facsimile and U.S. Mail Dear Mr. Livengood: Thank you for your recent request of a comparison of Nvages and benefits between Wal- Mart employees and grocery store employees represented by UFCW Local 3224. The United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 324 represents approximately 1.440 grocery store workers in Huntington Beach. These members work in the following stores: Ralphs. Vons. Pavilions. Albertson's, Luckv/Sav-On. Stater Bros.. and Hughes Markets. I have put together the following chart based on information obtained from a report prepared by Robert E. Goldman entitled ",4 Reexamination of Some Key Impacts of a Wal-Mart Store in the City of San Leandro" (April 1997), in which he refers to a study_ conducted by The Sedwav Group, "Economic Analysis of the Impact of High Volzrme Retail on San Jose. " Because the Sedwav Group has done work for the City on the proposed Huntington Beach Wal-Mart project (September 23. 1998). I thought using figures from this studv would be appropriate. While these figures may vary somewhat for Southern California. they are similar and therefore. applicable. For your convenience, I have included excerpts from the Goldman Report on employment impacts as well as the Sedway memorandum to the City of Huntington Beach. I hope this material will prove useful to you. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or comments. I may be reached at: (714) 840-1231. Sincerely, -_Dan Kittredge Enclosures V. IMPACT'S ON EMPLOYMENT A. The Sedway Study In 1995 the Sedway Group (then SKMG) conducted a study of issues related to the impact of high-volume retailers to help the City of San Jose develop policies on the future introduction of such retailers. As a small part of that study (Economic Analysis of the Impact of High Volume Retail on Sari Jost), the Sedway Group briefly examined Income and Employment trade-offs. While comprising only two pages in a lengthy report, the conclusions of that brief analysis have been widely quoted—or misquoted--as saying that the compensation from Big Box retailers was comparable to that of all other retail. I Based upon a review of that pan of the Sedway study and a review of retailing in Alameda County, such an inference is totally without foundation. The Sedway study looked only at wage income paid by two retailers in Santa Clara County, and compared these data with data published in County Business Pane= for Santa Clara County. B. Choice of Sample Only two retailers provided wage information in response to a Sedway request for compensation information: Orchard Supply Hardware (OSH) and Price Costco. OSH sales personnel wages ranged from S5.30 to $8.00 per hour. Price Costco reported starting wages at S8.27 per hour. The Sedway study noted that the Price Costco starting wage of S8.27 per hour is equivalent to an annual wage of S17.200 (for a full-time employee) and noted that this was slightly more than the countywide "average retail income". Great caution needs to be applied, however, to any generalization of these compensation figures to other big box retailers. Marry Price Costoo stores are unionized and all pay union-competitive wages. The Price Club stores were organized by the Teamsters Union prior the merger of Price Club and Costco. 'Ile Teamsters continue to represent these stores. The Costco stores provide essentially the same compensation package. Wal-Mart's wages are far below Price Costco with starting wages at $6.00 per hour for floor sales personnel. For a full-time worker $6.00 per hour is equivalent to Siz480 annually. Based on these data alone, it is safe to say that the statement "wages paid at high volume retailers are comparable to wages paid by traditional retailers" is simply incorrect when applied to Wal-Mart 13 C. Limitations of the Cowq Bu Lwa Pauerns Data The "number of employees' shown in CBP data is the total count of persons on the payroll for the payroll period that includes March 12. Part time and full time employees are both included. The "annual payroll" figure is the total wages paid in a calendar year (i.e.January 1 through December 31). Dividing the "payroll" figure by the "employees" figure may or may not provide a reasonable approximation of average (mean) wages. To the extent that the "number of employees" includes part time workers, the resulting "payroll per employee" will understate annual full-time equivalent earnings and thus, not provide a consistent basis for comparison with annual full-time equivalent earnings derived from annualizing an hourly wage rate as the Sedway study did. D. Retail Compensation Patterns The Sedway study compared Price Costco's compensation rate with payroll per employee in Santa Clara County for all retail categories not those for stores carrying comparable merchandise. Table V-1 below shows the County Business Pattern data for Retail Trade for Alameda County in 1994. The table presents data for the entire retail trade category, for each of the eight two-digit SIC (Standard Industrial Classification) groups within Retail Trade and for selected four-digit SIC groups within some of the two-digit groups. Several important conclusions can be derived from the table. First, payroll per employee across all retail groups in Alameda County in 1994 was $18,348. significantly higher than the S 17,200 Price Costco annual equivalent found by the Sedwav study and far higher than the 511,440 to 512,480 starting annual equivalent paid by Wal-Mart One of the most interesting things shown by the table is the very wide range of compensation that occurs in the retail industry. At the two-digit SIC group level, annual payroll per employee runs from under $10,000 per year (in the Eating and Drinking Places group) to over $30,000 per year (in the Automotive and Service Stations groups It is clear from this large variation that characterizing the entire retail group by a single "average" compensation estimate can be very misleading. In fact, the variation among retail groups is so large and the groups so disparate that the concept of"traditional retailing" is best avoided. By far the largest two-digit retail group is Eating and Drinking Places, comprising about 1/3 of total retail employment as shown in the table. This group also has the lowest payroll per employee at $9,768. The low payroll per employee figure reflects both the very low wages paid by fast-food retailers such as McDonalds as well as the 14 Table V-1 Annual Payroil.

The influence of the Eating and Drinking Places group in dragging down the payroll per employee figure for the total retail trade group is substantial. If the eating and drinking places group is dropped from the retail trade group total. then the overall payroll per employee would jump from $18,348 to S22,639. It is worth noting that payroll per employee among Grocery Stores and Drug Stores and Proprietary Stores are S20,877 and S22,876 respectively, both substantially above the figure for Total Retail Trade. As noted earlier in this report Wal-Mart competes directly with both of these getups and both would be adversely impacted by a Wal-Mart entry in San Leandro. E. Comparative Wages Based on information from the Union City and Milpitas stores, Wal-Mart's beginning compensation is either SSSO or $6.00 per hour with the higher rate for sales jobs. At 90 days, employees receive a 4% to 6% increase. Most receive a $25 per hour increase. The same wage increase next occurs at the end of one year. Thus, in the second year of employment, the typical sales employee receives $6.50 per hour. Thus, in the second year a Wal-Mart sales employee working 40-hours per week for the full year would expect to earn$13,520 in wages. Under the Food Store Contract, there are three general types of employees in unionized food stores (including Safeway and Lucky) • Food Clerks. • General Merchandise Clerks, • Courtesy Clerks. In the second year of employment, Experienced Food Clerks earn a regular hourly rate of $15.834. Tie annual equivalent (without considering Sunday or holiday differentials,overtime or shift premiums)would be S32,935. Experienced General Merchandise Clerks — generally in their third year of work — earn a regular hourly rate of S10.455. "Me annualized equivalent would be S21,746. Courtesy Clerks earn a regular hourly rate of S6.745. The annualized equivalent would be$14,030. Hours worked on Sundays and holidays as well as overtime hours earn 1.5 times the base pay for all types of workers. All workers also earn an additional S.50 per hour premium for work at night(generally any hours worked between 7 p.m.and 7 a.m.). 16 There are a small number of other job classifications beyond those discussed above including Store Manager, Assistant Manager, Senior Head Clerk, Senior Produce Clerk, etc. All of these jobs pay well above the hourly rate for Experienced Cleric shown above. For example, a Senior Produce Clerk earns a regular hourly rate of ' $16.377 per hour(or an annualized rate of S34,064). In Alameda County, the typical food store covered by the Food Store Contract has 52% Food Clerks, 24% General Merchandise Clerks and 24% Courtesy Clerks (excluding Store Managers and Assistant Managers). 'Ibis work force composition yields a blended average hourly pay rate of$123617 or an annualized rate of$25,712 far above Wal-Mart's compensation rate. In comparing wage compensation between Wal-Mart and the Food Store Contract, it should be noted that employee turnover in unionized grocery stores is low while turnover in big box retailers is high. Therefore, employees are likely to be higher on the experience scale and therefore be compensated acxordingly in a food store than in a big box retailer. Tie clerks in San Leandro covered food stores are with few exceptions going to be at the Experienced Cleric level. It also should be noted that the average hours worked per week (or per month, or per year) are far higher in unionized food stores than in Wal-Mart. Based on 1996 data for Alameda County derived from participation in benefit fundq, the average hours worked per week for all employees was=35.1 While similar data are not readily available for Wal-Mart, data compiled by the LJFCW national Research Office show that 34 percent of Wal-Mart's employees were not eligible for health insurance in 1994 meaning either that they were recent hires or they worked Iess than 28 hours per week. F. Comparative Benefits This section compares employee benefits provided by Wal-Mart with those provided under the Alameda County Food Store Contract. The benefits dexribed below are for full-time workers. It should be noted that while there are very substantial differences in medical and dental benefits under the plans offered by W&Mart and the Food State.Cuattact, no attempt has been made to evaluate differences in benefits and medical coverage. The foci of the analysis is on the differences in costs to the employee. Information on Wal-Mart benefits was derived from various oamp%kM documents including BENEFITS FOR ELIGIBLE WAL-MART ASSOCLlTES (March 1, 1995). Information on Food Store benefits was derived from intbrmation supplied by UFCW, Local 870 including Food Store Contrac; March 1, 1992-March 4, 1998. 17 ELi1tY There are significant differences in eligibility requirements between Wai-Mart and the Food Store Contract and significant differences in employee participation in various benefit programs. In general. Wal-Mart employees must work 28 or more hours per week to qualify for benefits in contrast to the Food Store Contract where virtually all employees are eligible to participate at some level. Based on 1993 data compiled by the UFCW national Research Office, about 41.2 percent of Wal-Mart's total employee population was covered under Wal-Mart's company health plan. In contrast, 90.8 percent of Safeway's Northern California employees were covered by its health insurance programs in 1994. In an October 24, 1996 article on variations in health care benefits from industry to industry, the Wall Street Journal noted: "At Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. stiff eligibility rules and high prices already leave many employees uncovered by the company's `Personal Choice' health plan. Only 43 % of Wal-Mart's 628,000 workers were covered in the fiscal year ended in January." Paid Holidays • Wal-Mart: 6 paid holidays annually • Food Store Contract 9 paid holidays annually Vacation • Wal-Mart: 1 week of vacation after one year of employment • Food Store Contract 2 weeks of vacation after one year of employment Sick Leave • Wal-Mart: Sick leave accrues at the rate of .023077 hours for each hour worked (approximately 4 hours per month) to a maximum of 192 hours (24 days). No cash pay out for sick leave time accrued in e=ess of maximum. • Food Store Contract Sick leave accrues at the rate of 6 hours per month to a maximum of 45 days. Employees receive an annual cash pay out for sick leave in e=ess of maximum. 18 ,'Medical Insurance • Wal-Mart: Offers medical insurance with employee sharing in premium pavment. Four deductible options are offered ranging from S250 to $1000 each with emplovee rate varying according to option. Employee part of the premium ranges from S5.50 to S18.50 bi-weekly depending upon deductible. Employee pays full premium for any dependents included in medical coverage. Plan includes employee co-insurance. • Food Store Contract: Employer pays full premium for employee and for all dependents. No deductible and no co-insurance. Daual Insurance • Wal-Mart Employee shares in premium payment for employee dental insurance ($2S0 bi-weekly) and pays all of the premium for dependents. Plan includes an annual deductible and co-insurai.-d. • Food Store Contract Employer pays full premium for employee and for all dependents. No deductible and no co-insurance. Rednmtent • Wal-Mart: Offers an Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Company pays 15% of employee company stock purchases to an annual maximum stock purchase of $1,800. (For a full-time employee this would translate into an annual maximum of about 5.13 per hour.) • Food Store Contract: Provides a defined benefit retirement plan. Employer's contribution is S1.37 per hour. Other • Wal-Mart Offers employee-paid life insurance. Provides small profit-sharing plan. Provides'employee discount card which entitles employee to 10% discount on Wal-Mart purchases of most regularly priced merchandise. • Food Store Contract: Provides no-cost vision insurance coverage. Provides retiree medical insurance coverage. 19 i SEOWAY GROUP Economic; s=_ NIEM0RANDU1I _aror A =reanorrr. -_•mar.

Fiscal Impact of Flipping Wal-Mart Assuming that Wal-Mart accepts a location on the western end of the site,and assuming strong signage, this siting change is unlikely to have a substantial impact on fiscal revenues generated by the store. However,this siting would have a substantial impact on the feasibility of the pads,due to their reduced visibility and distance from Beach Boulevard. In addition, the project could be jeopardized through diminished income from the pad sites, due to their inferior location. Developers typically make their economics feasible,given relatively low rents paid by major anchors,through reiativeiv high rents from small retailers on pads.

The speaker was comparing his neighborhood near Golden West Community College with its playing fields and open space and the weekend swap meets which take place there, to our neighborhood and a 24 Wal Mart (with no open space in sight) and not one ounce of buffer. There is no comparison. I have always been under the impression that staff and city employees are supposed to conduct themselves during the council meetings with impartiality and that they are there to advise council on the various subjects that come up during council meetings. I expect any person in such as position as Mr. Beardsley would be more attuned to what is proper and what is improper behavior during council meetings.

I read excerpts from it at the December 7 council meeting. It concerns the policy of RVs at Wal Mart. This, needless to say, is just one more problem a 24 hour Wal Mart would bring to our neighborhood. "Our parking lots are reserved for our customers, so if they shop there they can stay there," said Laura Pope, a national Wal-Mart spokeswoman. We in the Crest View neighborhood will be gaining nothing by this 24 hour big box store and will be losing everything, not the least of which is our quality of life. Who will be taking care of this inevitable problem?

CA City Council Members of 1998 DEC 10 P ll: 31 Huntington Beach 2000 Main Street Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Topic: Wal Mart Location and Sales Tax Dollars Dear City Council Members and Mayor Green: I would like to address a few of the arguments voiced by those proponents of a Wal Mart at the Crest View site, and who Crest View United believe, do not have the "full story". The first is a statement often heard: "The City needs Wal Mart -- The City Needs the Money" A hypothesis: If Wal Mart's plan were to build its store on the sand at the Beach, would the City say that it is OK? Why not? It will generate sales tax income. The City needs the money. Perhaps build the store in Central Park? It is a location that doesn't have any shopping. It will generate sales tax income. The City needs the money. How can one say"no" to a retailer as big as Wal Mart? What message does that send out to other businesses? Obviously, these are all ridiculous scenarios, but where is the line drawn? Putting Wal Mart at Crest View—tearing down a school,paving over and losing open space and a great site for Youth Sports fields is also ridiculous. That is why the Planning Commission has voted against rezoning Crest View. The line has been crossed. The pro-business members stated that the Crest View residential neighborhood is not the location for Wal Mart. They looked at this issue long and hard. They have stated that the store is better suited near the Fwy or possibly at Rancho View. Putting a discount, store such as Wal Mart, at the right location is a WIN/WIN situation. Those in favor of Wal Mart will be satisfied—the City will fulfill its "need for a Wal Mart", and "need for money". "Open Space Costs Money" The open space at Crest View is actually an investment. A Youth Sports complex is being considered/planned for Central Park. What will it cost to build? I urge everyone of you to look at the Crest View open sQace, and envision baseball, soccer, and football games there. All the site needs to get started are goal posts and lockers. There is plenty of parking along Talbert and in the school's parking lot. Crest View is ready for sports fields, and the facility could be rented or purchased at a discount from the Ocean View is M Josephson/Crest View United 12/9/98 P2/2 School District. With the population and Youth Sports needs going up, it is an investment to keep Crest View. "The City needs the income of$200,000" Granted, there is always a need for money, but what will it cost the City and its citizens to obtain this income? The net effect will most likely be negative. (As it stands, the estimated $200,000 is most likely a"stretch", as Wal Mart will do everything in its power to begin capturing sales from local businesses. Remember the income projections forecast for the swap meet at McFadden/Graham, and the income to be had from Frisbee golfers at Central Park.) This estimated $200K equals approximately $1 per resident—less than the cost of a cup of Joe at Starbucks. Is $1 worth the increased traffic on Beach and surrounding streets—affecting emergency vehicles, tourists, downtown businesses, and commuters? Is $1 worth the extra police coverage required? Is $1 worth loosing forever the open space for a school, sports fields, and a neighborhood? Is $1 worth the vacant stores that will result from Wal Mart? If stores lose just 15% of their sales (their profit), they will close. Is $1 worth the price of an empty box at Crest View—if Wal Mart closes. Sales via the Internet can affect even Wal Mart. Wal Marts have closed in locations throughout the U.S. Please examine this project carefully, and weigh the affects against the hopeful gains. Wal Mart at Crest View does not make sense, and the Planning Commission has voted as such. Sincerely, Marvin Josephson Co-Chair Crest View United Huntington Beach,9 December, 1998 Subject: Zoning Map Amendment No. 97-1 Attention: All City Council Members We own our home and live in the Crest View School district. Although, at least East of Beach Boulevard, discount-shopping outlets are abundant in Huntington Beach, our principle argument is not with Wal Mart itself. Proposed re-zoning the Crest View School property remains the core issue surrounding this conflict. 1. Any"Big Box" commercial development would surely be incompatible with the truly residential character of this area,not to mention the cemetery and church across the street. 2. The conclusions of the E1R exposed significant impacts on the quality of life in the project area, which could not be mitigated 3. There were compelling reasons for the Planning Commission to deny a Wal Mart development at the Crest View School site. 4. The OVSB would be the only benefactor if rezoning were to pass. Anticipated sales tax revenues to the city are questionable at best. 5. To lose the only bit of open space in the area adversely affects the children-again! 6. Recent projections by the Fed. Dept. of Education show a need for 30,000 additional classrooms in California over the next 10 years. Overcrowding in some schools within the OVSD was reported this fall. What is this going to look like 10 years from now? 7. An active roll for the Crest View neighborhood representatives in the formulation of a re-use plan for the"surplus" school was never realized. Hence, an inherently difficult task of finding a bal- anced solution has been compounded by the contemptuous posture of the OVSD management. 8. Few would argue the need to improve the tax base for our city. It would, however, expose a serious lack of communal vision and demonstrate a deficit of fiscal imagination on the part of community leaders if we have to take such extreme steps and convert public schools into discount retail outlets to raise necessary revenues. My family and I urge you to vote"NO"on the proposed re-zoning of the of the Crest View School site. Manfred C.
