He explained that the Plan basically consists of four categories, freeway projects of 1.3 billion dollars, regional street and road projects of 350 million dollars, local street and road projects of 650-million, and transit projects of 750 million dollars,' to be funded 'through a half cent sales tax proposal. Mr. Mountford stated that based upon the formula developed by the Commission, fifty percent population, twenty-five percent tax generated, and twenty- five percent MPAH miles, the City would realize 4.2 million dollars in maintenance funds, an additional million from the MPAH category, and 900 thousand from growth management funds, a total of 6.1 million dollars, that the City would also be eligible to compete for 350 million dollars available for street and road projects, specifically intersection improvement programs, traffic signal coordination, transportation system management, and regional interchange projects. In response to Council, Mr. Mountford explained that Pacific Coast Highway is included in the Plan as a super-street from Warner Avenue to Dana Point, however the Plan does not include widening of PCH through Seal Beach I or Sunset Beach. He confirmed that the purpose of this presentation was to seek support for the Plan in order to ultimately present the funding measure to the voters of Orange County. Mr. Mountford explained that the approximate $300,000 per year, adjusted for inflation over the twenty year period, that would be forthcoming to Seal Beach could be used for any local street or road project that the City desired to undertake, including street repaving. With regard to a proposal for a statewide gas tax increase, Mr. Mountford stated he believed there would be a matching funds requirement for the programs under the State proposal, the desire under the Orange County Plan being to generate funds that could be used as a match for State funds. With regard to the majority of projects proposed in the Orange County Plan being in central and south County, he explained that the Commission had tried to make the Plan project specific and include only those projects that were perceived to be a high priority, the freeway projects in this area of the County being less since there have been improvements that have recently taken place. Councilmember Risner noted that the County Plan differs from that of the League which recommends twenty-nine rather than twenty-one percent, or 900 million, go to local streets, with eighty-five percent of the twenty-nine percent distributed based on seventy-five percent population and twenty-five percent sales tax, I therefore a benefit to cities with lower sales tax, the remaining fifteen percent going to growth management areas, and allowing coordination of projects on a more regional basis. Councilmember Risner expressed her preference that this item be held over pending the upcoming discussion at the Orange County League meeting. Mr. Mountford stated it is felt that support of the Plan will be forthcoming from one-half of the cities representing half of the population, a requirement to ~ I I I 6-5-89 place the measure on the ballot, and noted that an action on this item is necessary by the end of this month to allow consideration by the Commission on July lOth.

The City Clerk certified that notice of the public hearing had been advertised as required by law, and reported no communications had been received either for or against this item. The City Manager recalled the preliminary budget review of February 9th at which time the guidelines for I preparation of the budget were to maintain current service levels, review revenue enhancements, continue to maintain prudent reserve levels in accordance with the Orange County Cities Risk Management Authority, and to maintain the Workers' Compensation Fund at a level equivalent to one year's claims. He reported that the proposed budget reflects a 2.9 percent increase in expenditures and an approximate 7.8 percent increase in revenues, the Council having taken action to increase revenues through enactment of the Utility Users Tax on intrastate and international telephone use and increase of the beach parking lot fees, the staff further proposing that the Utility Users Tax be applied to cable television, and that there be a revision of fees relating to community center rental, resident/guest parking permits, transportation permits, activity request applications, and filming permits. He pointed out that capital expenditures are increased from $400,000 to $800,000, a large percentage of those monies from other agencies, and although water and sewer funds are at an acceptable level, the City will be in a poor position in ten years if there is no increase of revenues for capital improvements. Mr. Nelson noted the list of unfunded items from the various departments, monetary requests from outside organizations, reproduction of emergency preparedness I booklets at a cost of $4500, and a request from the School District to fund up to $100,000 for crossing guard assistance. He concluded that the proposed budget does maintain current levels of service, the expenditures within revenue projections, however considering the rate of inflation and incomplete employee negotiations, this would be considered a slim budget. He added that inquiries regarding the budget by members of the Council have been referred to staff for response. There were no communications from the audience at this time. Risner moved, second by Hunt, to continue the public hearing regarding the 1989/90 proposed budget until the workshop session of June l2th at 6:00 p.m. AYES: NOES: ABSENT: Grgas, Hunt, Laszlo, Risner None Wilson Motion carried RESOLUTION NUMBER 3860 - SIGNATURE AUTHORIZATIONS Resolution Number 3860 was presented to Council entitled "A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SEAL BEACH, CALIFORNIA, PROVIDING AUTHORIZATION TO SIGN DEMANDS AND CHECKS FOR THE WITHDRAWAL OF FUNDS ON DEPOSIT WITH THE BANK OF AMERICA, SECURITY PACIFIC NATIONAL BANK, WELLS FARGO BANK I AND FIRST INTERSTATE BANK, AND AUTHORIZING ALTERNATE SIGNATURES AND RESCINDING RESOLUTION NUMBER 3810."

He added that revenue that may be generated from the fees proposed are not included in the budget. Councilman Laszlo noted that adjustment of fees is most often based upon comparison with other cities, suggested that traffic fines be considered in the same manner since, from his information, Seal Beach has the highest traffic I fines of other cities in the area and are a revenue source. The City Manager responded that fines and forfeitures are different from fees for services, which are based on estimated costs for the specific service, and offered to provide a report to the Council regarding fines and forfeitures if desired. He advised that the City does have jurisdiction over some penalties, such as violation of local provisions of the Municipal Code, however others are prescribed by the State. Discussion followed with members of the Council expressing their views that such review would be complex and lengthy, that the previously adopted fees were given due consideration, that situations specific to Seal Beach as compared to other cities needs to be kept in mind, and a majority of the Council indicating they did not feel such review was warranted. Risner moved, second by Hunt, to continue consideration of Resolution Number 3864 until the June 19th public hearing.

By unanimous consent, full reading of the proposed Ordinance was waived. The City Manager reported that as a revenue source, the Utility Users Tax is proposed to be applied to cable television, the five percent tax estimated to generate $70,000 annually, however has not been included in the proposed budget. He noted a report received from the League of Cities that designated the cities that currently impose this tax on cable. Members of the Council suggested that input be solicited from the members of the Cable Foundation regarding this matter, noted that a percentage of cable revenue is presently credited towards the prepaid cable franchise fee and once the credit equals the prepaid fee those revenues will be forthcoming directly to the City, also questioned whether imposing the utility tax on the cable user would deter subscribership and reduce the benefit to the community. Mr. Pete Arnold, Chairman of the Cable Foundation, stated he felt th~ Foundation was not aware of this proposal, that their goal is to promote cable and public access, and voiced his feeling that imposing this tax on only a segment of the community is unfair. Mr. Arnold reported more than one hundred persons responded to a I telephone survey during the last City Council meeting expressing their desire for continued public access, and noted subscribership is at a very acceptable penetration rate of approximately forty-eight percent. Mr. Arnold offered to request that the Foundation members contact the Council individually with regard to this proposal.

PROPOSED LEGISLATION - SB 838 - BERGESON The City Manager presented an update regarding SB 838, Transportation Agencies Consolidation and Sub-Regional Association of Governments and reviewed actions taken at the Orange County League meeting of April 20th. He reported since that date the Division Steering Committee and Senator Bergeson have agreed on a concept for legislation that would allow for the creation of a sub-regional Association of Governments, and reviewed the elements of that conceptual agreement as set forth in his June 1st memorandum. He noted there has been discussion over a number of years as to the coordination of transportation planning with the cities and the County as a whole, with consideration and debate relating to consolidation of the Orange County Transit Commission, the Transit District, the Corridor Transit Authority, and the City of Laguna Beach Municipal Transportation System, the cities having indicated through the League Division that they did not want to discuss consolidation, however there were concerns with regard to the input of cities to the Transit Commission on transportation planning, specifically as it effects the growth of the cities within the County. Mr. Nelson reported receipt of a letter from the City Manager of Laguna Beach reporting that a committee of Orange County City Managers had met to review the proposed wording of SB 838 and had recommended that wording be added that would protect the Laguna Beach Transit System so that it would not be negatively impacted by this action, yet would never exceed the apportionment to which it is legally entitled under State law. He noted the issue of SB 838 will be discussed by the City Managers Association on Wednesday and at the League meeting on Thursday. Councilmember Risner suggested that the Mayor be allowed to cast the City's vote at the League meeting based on the information received at that meeting and on the results of the City Manager's meeting. Councilman Laszlo voiced his concern with regard to all members of the Board of Supervisors sitting on the Regional Association. OFFSHORE OIL DRILLING Councilman Laszlo made reference to the Federal government's proposed off-shore oil drilling lease sale, the opposition to same by the Orange County Board of Supervisors and the California Senators, and suggested that a resolution in opposition also be prepared for Council consideration. Mayor Grgas noted that although Seal Beach has not taken formal action, members of the Council have been actively following this issue. Councilman Hunt stated he had not formulated a position on this issue at this time, and I I I 6-5-89 requested that information supporting and opposing the offshore leases be made available. It was the consensus of the Council that a Resolution be prepared as requested. APPOINTMENTS - BOARDS and COMMISSIONS I Ad Hoc Airport Committee Councilman Laszlo reported at the last meeting of the Airport Site Coalition the Armed Forces Reserve Center and Seal Beach weapons Station had been removed from the list of potential sites for commercial aviation, and that he believed the Long Beach Harbor offshore site was also removed. He stated the basic reasons for their removal was airspace constraints, passenger capacity, and that Orange County passengers that would be served was less than twenty- five percent. He noted however that the removal of those sites is tentative until a final vote is taken at the next Coalition meeting. Mr. Laszlo commended members of this community, Rossmoor and Los Alamitos for their efforts in this regard, and recommended that the local Airport Committee continue to exist. Mayor Grgas requested that the District One appointment to the Airport Committee be held over.

The City Attorney recommended that Mr. Ambrose submit the information to the staff for review and presentation to the Council for the continued public hearing on June 19th, explaining that there should be no testimony or evidence submitted outside of the hearing process. He also advised that comments regarding the plans submitted to the Planning Commission could be made at the Commission meeting or at the continued Council hearing on June 19th. Mr. Ambrose requested that the Council reconsider and submit the Wetlands Society plan to the Planning Commission. The City Attorney again advised that such action could not be taken at this meeting. With regard to the financial analysis of the "C.l" alternative, the City Manager reported that information has not yet been received from the consultant. Councilmember Risner stated she had been unable to obtain financial information regarding "C.I" from the Mayor, that it did not seem to be available from the consultant on May 15, however she has since received the data. In response to Council, the City Manager noted that the City's 75th birthday will occur in October 1990, that the occasion has been mentioned to the Chamber and other community organizations, and suggested that the Council may wish to give thought to that celebration. Councilmember Risner suggested that a citizens committee be appointed to work on the birthday celebration. Councilman Laszlo noted 6-5-89 / 6-12-89 that a number of large businesses pay only $lOO annually for a business license while taxes are used to pay for protective services and capital improvements, and stated he felt businesses should pay their fair share. The City Manager responded that a report will be forthcoming regarding business licenses. Councilman Hunt stated it may be perceived that some businesses pay too little and there I could possibly be a means for adjustment. Councilmember Risner added that although there could be further discussion, she noted that the fees had recently been doubled, a CPI adjustment applied, and suggested that business license fees should be reasonable. Councilman Laszlo stated his opinion that a miniumum license fee for a Main Street business should be $500, with larger businesses in the community charged up to $1000. With regard to the Planning Commission consideration of the alternative plans for the Hellman property, the City Manager explained that even though it is not a noticed public hearing, the Commission does have the ability to allow public testimony. Mayor Grgas reported that the initial financial analysis of alternative "C.l" was available from the consultant at the May 15th meeting, and that the data he had personally used to determine if the plan was viable was proprietary. There being no further comments, Mayor Grgas declared Oral Communications closed.
