NOES: Doane, Forsythe, Hastings, Laszlo, Wilson-Sharp None Motion carried AYES: ORAL COMMUNICATIONS Mayor Laszlo declared Oral communications open. Mr. Richard Williamson, Public Affairs Officer, Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station, announced that the Base and the California Environmental Protection Agency will be conducting community interviews over the next couple of weeks in conjunction with the hazardous waste clean-up program at the station. with regard to recent news articles, Mr. williamson reported the EPA conducted an inspection of the Station in December followed by an enforcement order on April 30th imposing a $191,000 fine for alleged hazardous waste violations, the articles making it appear that the station is not a good steward, which he said is not the case. He explained that the Station no longer uses solvents and chemicals in many areas, rather a degradable soap, that the charges relating to napalm storage are incorrect, and although remaining polystyrene waste I from the Fallbrook facility interimly stored at the Station en route to the waste disposal site is classified as flammable, it is not, however said all precautions are taken in its handling. He noted that of the napalm materials stored in 1972, the gas, benzine, and the remaining plastic material is recyclable through a program with the Navy and the EPA. He confirmed that although there are some disagreements with the State regarding paperwork items, Mr. Williamson stated at no time has there been any risk to Station personnel or the city as a result of hazardous chemicals. Mr. Charles Antos, 328 - 17th Street, voiced his complaint that there has been no action to implement an appeal I I I 5-11-92 process for parking violations since his request of February, 1991. He objected to auto racing activities of the Police Chief, citing the potential of city liability, questioned what he understood to be a contract with willow Springs Raceway to train police officers to drive at a cost of $1400 since the California Highway Patrol has a like training program, and the payment to McKeever Motors for same. Mr. Galen Ambrose, Seal Beach, volunteered his services to the Hellman Ranch specific Plan Committee. He said he believed that the city will realize support for taking the lead in forming a wetlands taskforce, and noted that it is not known what exists on the Hellman property since a toxicity study has not been done. Mr. Bruce Stark, Seal Beach, asked if water testing has been increased as a result of the reported hazardous waste storage at the Weapons station since the City's water wells are located on the Station. He suggested that the Housing Element should be brought into state compliance prior to going forward with a Specific Plan for the Hellman land. Mr. Stark inquired as to any progress to ban leaf blowers, suggested also that fines be imposed for motor vehicle alarm violations. Ms. Joan stegman, 13th street, offered her services for the Hellman Ranch Specific Plan Committee. Mr. Gary Johnson, 3rd Street, expressed appreciation for Mr. Williamson's explanation by telephone this date of the eighteen alleged hazardous waste violations at the Weapons Station, however expressed concern that Seal Beach residents are not being informed of potential problems and activities at the station, also his concern with the impact on ground water as a result of possible chemical dumping in years past, and indicated an interest in internal investigations that are not publicly known, incidents of exceeding the blast arc as an example. Mr. Johnson asked that the city request a written report from the California Environmental Protection Agency as to what violations were found and allow the station to subsequently respond, that the City undertake an audit of the safety programs at the Naval Weapons station with the City retaining an independent consultant to do so, the cost of which paid by the station, and that the City should commence discussion as to whether or not the Naval Weapons Station should remain in Seal Beach. Mr. Bill Orszewsky, Seal Beach, spoke regarding the recent civil disorder, said the Rodney King/police officer incident shows that justice is a subjective reality, that justice is a burden that each person bears, that the current number of rich and poor constitute a lack of human justice as does the cost of health insurance for the elderly. He noted his intent to bring the issue of geriatric and pediatric health care to the Hellman Ranch discussions. Mr. Orszewsky urged that justice be brought into everyday life. There being no further comments, Mayor Laszlo declared Oral Communications closed.

AYES: NOES: ABSENT: 1. I Doane, Forsythe, Laszlo, Wilson-Sharp None Hastings Motion carried ITEMS REMOVED FROM THE CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM "B" - WARRANTS In response to inquiries of Mayor Laszlo, the City Manager explained that check number 87777, City of Fort Collins, was payment for a study, check 87790, Diversified Photo Supply, was for film and photo supplies primarily for police investigations, check 87822, McKeever Motorsports, a company associated with Willow Springs prior to some eighteen months ago, now involved' with POST in developing training programs specific to police vehicle accidents, backing up, breaking, etc., and although the programs are in conjunction with POST it is not known at this time whether they will be POST reimbursed.

AYES: NOES: ABSTAIN: Doane, Forsythe, Hastings, Laszlo None Wilson-Sharp Motion carried ITEM "E" - NOTICE OF PREPARATION - DRAFT EIR - PROPOSED 1993 REGIONAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN - SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA ASSOCIIATION OF GOVERNMENTS As a point of information Mayor Laszlo read the fourteen Elements to be addressed in the 1993 Regional Comprehensive Plan, which he noted all have an impact on Seal Beach and the surrounding areas. Councilmember Forsythe mentioned that the proposed Regional Comprehensive Plan covers a 38,000 square mile region of Southern California, that the same SCAG guidelines are applied to Seal Beach as are applied to another inland city as an example, yet Seal Beach does not have the resources to comply with those generic guidelines because of the land value and land resources available, and said she did not want to be blanketed by a Plan that can not be complied with. She noted there is nothing that addresses circumstances where a city may not be able meet the Growth Management Plan, nothing with regard to land constraints, hazards, etc., and suggested that there is a need to respond to the DEIR that this community only has so much available land, and that the City is presently involved in determining how much of that land can be built upon. The City Manager stated that comments will be submitted with regard to this Notice and to future documents during the EIR preparation, and that staff will be cognizant of these well-taken concerns. Mayor Laszlo noted the preference of most Orange county cities for a countywide planning agency rather than SCAG, and read the numerous roles and authorities under the Southern California Association of Governments. Hastings moved, second by Forsythe, to receive and file the report relating to the Draft EIR for the proposed 1993 Regional Comprehensive Plan, and that staff be instructed to review the Notice of Preparation for the DEIR and provide comments as deemed appropriate. AYES: Forsythe, Hastings, Laszlo, Wilson-Sharp NOES: Doan~ Motion carried ORDINANCE NUMBER 1i~3 - PLANNING COMMISSION The City Manager noted that the proposed Ordinance is submitted for introduction and first reading, that the changes discussed at the last meeting had been incorporated, considered by the Planning Commission, and further suggestions ~f the commission were set forth in the staff report. with regard to Commission comments relating to the consistency of Commission terms to Council terms, the City Attorney explained that the suggested change would not be in compliance with the Charter that requires the terms to be staggered and commence at a specific time. There was some discussion of the provision for vacancy upon three unexcused absences during any twelve month period, staff explaining that current Code addresses only three absences without a specific period of time. with regard to public hearings relating to General Plan Amendments, a preference was indicated to require two public hearings, rather than one, where large projects are involved. Staff suggested that could be addressed through a council policy rather than in the Ordinance, citing the requirement of State law for one hearing and difficulty in determining a threshold. Revised wording to 5-11-92 require "more than one" public hearing was also offered, to be applicable to both the Planning Commission and City Council. staff questioned the need for two public hearings for minor projects requiring General Plan amendments, also concern with potential conflicts with time limitations relating to the approval process for maps, permits, etc., suggesting that 1_ additional research would be necessary in that regard. Discussion continued. with regard to a threshold, language was suggested to the effect that more than one public hearing would be required in cases "of undeveloped land of two acres or more." There appeared to be a consensus that major General Plan amendments should require two public hearings, possibly based on undeveloped land of two acres or more, and that the City Attorney research further the issue of statutory time frames. There appeared to be consensus of the Council to amend the language of Section 17-1 to read "Except as otherwise required by law, the City Planning Commission and the City Council shall be governed by the California Planning and Zoning Law only as it applies to Charter Cities." The city Attorney indicated that such language would be acceptable, however offered to verify that there would be no conflict with other provisions of law. It was the consensus of the Council to hold this item over until the next meeting pending further research by the city Attorney, incorporation of the changes discussed, and a policy statement for consideration. RESOLUTION NUMBER 4142 - EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT - PLANNING COMMISSION Resolution Number 4142 was presented to Council entitled "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH ESTABLISHING THE EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENT OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION PURSUANT TO SECTION 17-5, CODE OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH." By I unanimous consent, full reading of Resolution Number 4142 was waived. Hastings moved, second by Doane, to adopt Resolution Number 4142 as presented. NOES: Doane, Forsythe, Hastings, Laszlo, Wilson-Sharp None Motion carried AYES: It was the order of the Chair, declare a recess at 8:25 p.m. p.m. with Mayor Laszlo calling with consent of the Council, to The Council reconvened at 8:36 the meeting to order. HELLMAN SPECIFIC PLAN COMMITTEE The city Manager stated the intent of this item was to receive Council direction that will in turn allow staff to prepare a resolution for the formation of a Hellman Specific Plan Committee and develop their scope of work. He requested input as to the level of membership, appointment by district or at large, equality of membership by district, the level of involvement of the property owner, and noted that members of the Hellman Trust have indicated interest in participating and in the development of an alternate plan. He explained that the revised plan would be based upon new information that was not available when the existing Specific Plan was adopted approximately five years ago. I Of importance as well is preparation for Specific Plan related expenses, however pointed out that State law does allow a city to establish a reimbursement process by attachment of a fee through the issuance of any discretionary permits within ten years of , adoption of the Plan, the fees subject to interest, loss of interest, and costs related to infrastructure improvements. The city Manager reported an expressed interest of the Coastal Conservancy to participate in a Wetland Component to the Specific Plan as well as participation for funding, the Hellman Trust also indicating an interest to participate financially up-front to some degree in the Specific Plan preparation. He reported the I I I I __ . ,I .. .. ," 'I. . .. . 5-11-92 intent to address some of the budgetary aspects relative to the Plan and outside participation at the time of presentation of the fee ordinance. The Manager recommended that the committee be formed by resolution wherein the term and scope of work will be set forth, a staff recommendation to be that the existing Plan be reviewed initially, that certain findings be made as to the need for amendment, that a consultant be retained to prepare the Plan and the EIR, that the Wetlands component be prepared through a sub-contract consultant, selected by the city, and noted that the Coastal Conservancy has provided a list of firms that would be worthy of consideration. He pointed out that the council previously selected the consultant to prepare the EIR however the funding has not been provided by Mola Development, and suggested that it would be an option of the Council to go forward with that firm. Councilmember Hastings questioned the probability of a developer SUbmitting a project application for the Hellman site during the period that a Plan is being prepared, and asked if the property should be downzoned first. The city Manager acknowledged that possibility as a concern of staff as well as the Hellman's, and even though a general commitment has been made as to the Hellman intent, it is felt that possibly a wetlands overlay or moratorium should be considered, however an action to downzone the property would not be recommended. The City Attorney explained that application can not be made to develop a property without the consent of the owner, therefore obtaining the concurrence of the property owner would be the first alternative, however confirmed that other means are being explored to ensure sufficient time to develop a Plan. Councilmember Hastings asked for some type of assurance that no application will be submitted pending adoption of a Specific Plan. Councilmember Forsythe stated her belief that a new relationship exists with the Hellman Family where they realize they do not have a viable piece of property that can be mitigated given the wetlands, toxics, high water table, earthquake fault, etc., and those limitations must be addressed initially. She expressed concern with regard to retaining a firm having sufficient expertise to properly address the seismic issues. with regard to Hellman representation on the committee, the city Manager said his understanding is that the representative will be a member of the Hellman Trust, will be free to work with the committee within the parameters given, that the Trust is supportive of this person and the development of a Specific Plan. Discussion continued. It was clarified that the 1987 Hellman Ranch Specific Plan providing for approximately seven hundred units was approved by the Council however had not received approval of the Coastal commission, also should a moratorium be enacted it could be in effect for approximately two years. Mayor Laszlo stated his preference that the committee develop proposed projects for the property that would be acceptable to the Hellman's and the citizens rather than involving other agencies and an expenditure of funds at this point. The City Manager explained that for the committee to effectively develop a Specific Plan it is important that the environmental constraints be identified and dealt with initially. Councilmember Forsythe agreed that technical data and assistance will be necessary in order to develop a plan that can eventually be implemented. Mayor Laszlo indicated reluctance to spend City funds without an assurance of reimbursement from Hellman, the Coastal Conservancy, or whomever. The city Manager responded that although he could not give full assurance, he again recommended adoption of an ordinance that would allow the attachment of a fee to discretionary permits for recovery of costs, that the Hellman's have indicated a willingness to continue discussions in this regard, the Conservancy also having indicated a willingness to participate to some degree, however a criteria of the Conservancy is that there be an outside consultant to address hydrology, geology, biology, and seismic issues. 5-11-92 Mr. Galen Ambrose stated the desire of the Wetlands Restoration Society to be involved in the Specific Plan process. He also indicated that considerable information regarding the geology, seismic, etc. had been provided to the City through consultants of the society. Having participated in the interview process, Councilmember Forsythe spoke highly of the environmental I consultant that had been chosen to prepare the EIR for the Hellman property. The City Manager noted that identification of the environmental constraints should be a part of the committee's scope of work, much of that information can be extracted from environmental documents that exist, ultimately forms of mitigation can be developed, and emphasized that consultants would not be involved in any land use decisions. There was an indicated consensus that the committee consist of two members appointed by each member of the Council, plus one alternate, and a representative of the property owner. A suggestion was made that one appointment from outside each Council District boundary be allowed. The scope of work was described as creation of a Specific Plan for the Hellman Ranch property, it was requested that the term of the committee continue throughout the public hearing process, and that pUblic input to the committee be allowed. The City Manager noted that the committee will be subject to the provisions of the Brown Act. Staff suggested that the Council could appoint ex officio, non- voting members of the committee for input purposes, the Coastal Conservancy and Wetlands Society as examples. Ms. Beverly Casares, Seal Beach, said before a Hellman representative is accepted she would ask that the city obtain a certified copy of the minutes of the Hellman Family Trust meetings showing that the individual has been authorized to represent the Trust, that the Trust should be notified of any costs before they are incurred and if not paid within a specified period of time, interest will be imposed. She alleged 'there to be two drilling mud sites on the property, and recalled witness reports of Indian remains being removed from the site. Ms. Casares asked how the Hellman Specific Plan can be addressed until the Housing Element is brought into compliance with the State guidelines. Mr. Charles Antos, 17th street, volunteered to serve on the Hellman specific Plan Committee. He suggested that the Housing Element, revised by the committee formed for that purpose, be scheduled for public hearings before the Planning Commission and Council now that the legal actions have been dismissed, which would serve to remove the number of units in the current Housing Element for the Hellman property, and upon adoption of the Hellman Specific Plan the other Elements of the General Plan could be amended accordingly. Councilmember Hastings noted that the Housing Element had been forwarded to the State for informal review and comment, and offered to follow-up on their response. Mr. Bruce Stark, Seal Beach, suggested that no staff member be assigned to the Specific Plan Committee, and spoke critically of certain City personnel. The City Manager disagreed and took exception to the comments of Mr. Stark. Mr. Bill Olszewsky, Seal Beach, spoke regarding a recent court decision, Yee versus Escondido, relating to the taking of property. Mr. Ambrose spoke for some type of protection against a potential development proposal pending preparation of a Specific Plan. Mayor Laszlo concluded the discussion in view of the directions provided staff. It was the order of the Chair, with consent of the Council, to declare a recess at 9:42 p.m. The council reconvened at 9:52 with Mayor Laszlo calling the meeting to order. COUNCIL CONCERNS Councilman Doane relinquished his comment period to the representative from the Naval Weapons station. Mr. Richard I I 'I I I . ., . -4~',. 5-11-92 Williamson referred to concerns expressed earlier in the meeting with regard to water, and said once again he wanted to point out that since 1985 there has been a public engineering document available in the libraries that clearly states that the water drawn from Seal Beach wells is from at least six hundred fifty feet deep, a two hundred foot clay cap atop that, with approximately four hundred feet of soil, saline, and brackish water above that. He explained that if there was contamination from the Station it would be in the surface water, flow to the National Wildlife Refuge and then the ocean, it would not go into the public drinking water, the only thing the engineering document cites as a possible source of contamination for public drinking water would be if a well casing were not properly sealed. He added that the wells the farmers use for irrigation on the Station are tested on a regular basis and there has been no contamination found. He noted that in the event of a gasoline or diesel spill at the Public Works gas station it is well known, defined, and documented. Mr. Williamson confirmed that the wells are tested regularly by the Orange County Water District and the Santa Ana Regional Control Board, a public report provided to the city and the station. The city Manager confirmed that tests are conducted at a minimum of once per week and all water wells have monitoring systems. Mr. Williamson spoke regarding the success of the bio-remediation of the gasoline and diesel fuels that had leaked from storage tanks in the past, the diesel tank having been removed and a regular program for regulation and testing in place, the fuels have not migrated, and there is no data indicating any contamination. He clarified that thirty-six tanks had been inspected pursuant to the Federal Resource, conservation, Recovery Act, of which two were found to have leaked, however no migration from those areas or towards the Refuge have been found. He noted that Phase II of the Restoration Program is due to commence in October. Mr. Williamson said the comments with regard to violation of safety arcs and public exposure was not factual, that only a few types of ordnance are allowed to be worked on, confined to a specific location within the fenced area, and the Station does not expose the public to explosive arcs. He acknowledged evidence of a disposal pit behind the container cleaning facility easterly of McGaugh School, however the site assessment done several years ago failed to show evidence of chemicals that were thought to have been used, that site to be further evaluated under the Phase II program. Mr. Williamson concluded that he only received notice from California EPA relating to the news release late Friday, that he did not have the opportunity to notify the City Manager or Council in advance of the release, noted that the Station was cited for violations that do not exist and for activities that had previously been permitted, to which the Station intends to rigorously object. Mr. Williamson agreed to provide copies of the notice of violations, the response, and citation action for information of the Council. Councilmember Hastings reported a resident suggestion to establish a police substation in the area of the Lifeguard Station with assigned officers. The City Manager indicated the suggestion received favorable acceptance by staff, that there will be further discussion of staffing costs, hours, Cadet and Reserve programs to augment per.sonnel coverage. Mayor Laszlo mentioned inquiries as to commencement of a recycling program, determination of a curbside or MRF program, noted the sale of the Rossmoor franchise, and a dispute between Briggeman Disposal and the transfer station. He reported on the recycling program, the associated cost, and construction of a MRF facility in the city of Huntington Beach. The City Manager noted that Seal Beach is ahead of most communities with their recycling plans in as much as the Recycling Element has now received State and County approval. He reported staff efforts to determine the cost 5-11-92/5-19-92 differences of the two programs, and a concern as to how the twenty-five to fifty percent refuse reduction can be achieved, also that Mr. Briggeman had been informed of an intent to renegotiate the refuse contract. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS Mayor Laszlo declared Oral Communications open. Mr. Bruce Stark, 1- Seal Beach, questioned check number 87728 payable to Ivan Stevenson. The City Manager offered to review the backup to the payment. With regard to staff representation for committees, Mr. Stark suggested that the specific committees be allowed to choose whomever they wiSh to attend or provide input whether it be the EPA, Wetlands Society, etc. In response to questions of Mr. Antos, 17th Street, the city Manager explained that check number 87787, Davidson Investigations, related to a workers compensation claim, check number 87861, Take Care, was a health insurance payment, and offered to review the backup to check number 87848, Saleen High Performance Parts. There being no further comments, Mayor Laszlo declared Oral Communications closed. CLOSED SESSION No Closed Session was held.
