CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: 11 -16 -98 ITEM NUMBER:
SUBJECT: RIGHT OF ENTRY AGREEMENT BY AND BETWEEN THE CITY OF COSTA MESA AND
THE COSTA MESA SANITARY DISTRICT FOR FAIRVIEW PARK SEWER
IMPROVEMENTS .
DATE: -NOVEMBER 9,1998
FROM: PUBLIC SERVICES DEPARTMENT /ENGINEERING DIVISION
PRESENTATION BY: WILLIAM J. MORRIS, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC SERVICES
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: ERNESTO MUNOZ AT (714) 754 -5173
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Right of Entry Agreement by and between the City of Costa Mesa and the
Costa Mesa Sanitary District for Fairview Park sewer improvements, including a
provision to grant an easement for the sewer line upon completion of the
improvements.
BACKGROUND:
For the past ten (10) years, the Orange County Model Engineers (OCME) organization
has been operating the "Goat Hill Station" train ride facility . at Fairview Park. The
OCME facility has been very popular.with Costa Mesa residents and participation has
increased in the past few years. As a result, the OCME organization has planned and
budgeted for a snack bar and restroom facility at their location in Fairview Park. This
restroom facility was`recently approved by City. Council as part of the Fairview Park
Master Plan.
At the City Council meeting on April 20, 1998, City Council approved the restroom
and snack bar facility and agreed . to fund a portion of the OCME proposed
improvements.' In June, 1998, City Council approved $20,000 in the fiscal year
1.998/99- Capital ..Improvement Budget towards the construction' of the restroom
facility and $15,000 for the .sewer line improvements to serve the restroom facility.
ANALYSIS:
As a result of several. meetings with the Costa Mesa Sanitary District. (District)
regarding the proposed OCME restroom facility and sewer line needs, the District has
agreed to design,. construct, own, operate and maintain a gravity sewer system in
Fairview Park from Canyon Drive to the easterly side of Placentia Avenue with a.
southeasterly leg to the Estancia High School property line. A map showing the
approximate alignment of the sewer line is included as part of Attachment 1 to the
Right of Entry Agreement.
r
The District Board has budgeted $260,000 to fund the design and construction of ._
the sewer line improvements with a minimum $15,000 contribution from the City.
The respective duties and responsibilities. of the City and the District for this project
are set forth in a signed letter agreement included as Attachment 1 to the Right of
Entry Agreement.
The alignment 'of the sewer line will be in accordance with the approved Fairview
Park Master Plan and the District agrees to construct the sewer line in such a manner
so as not to damage the existing vernal pools in the vicinity of the construction site.
The District also agrees to allow a City approved and hired archeologist to monitor
the trenching activities in compliance with mitigation .measures in the Fairview Park
Master Plan. The City will pay for the archeologist services, estimated to be under .
$5,000.
Included in the Right of Entry Agreement, the City agrees to grant to the District a
fifteen (15) foot wide easement for the sewer line. Upon completion of the sewer
line improvements, the District will prepare easement maps and legal descriptions and
staff will present them to City Council for execution.
ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED:
The District studied alternate sewer facilities such as septic tanks, holding tanks, and
a pumping station, but found they were too costly over the long term or inadequate
to best serve the needs of the entire park. The District and City staff has determined.
that a gravity sewer system is the most efficient method of serving the proposed
future restroom facilities as indicated and approved in the Fairview Park Master Plan..
FISCAL REVIEW:
As approved in the fiscal year 1998 -99 Capital Improvement Budget, Park
Development Funds in the amount of $20,000 are available for the construction of
the OCME facility restroom and $15,000 are available as the City's contribution
towards construction of the sewer line improvements.
LEGAL REVIEW:'
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the right of entry agreement as to
form..
CONCLUSION:
It is recommended that City Council approve the attached Right of Entry Agreement
for the construction of sewer line improvements in Fairview Park by the Costa Mesa
Sanitary District.

TO: ORANGE COUNTY CITY MANAGERS' ASSOCIATION MEMBERS
FROM: PAUL BRADY, JR., CHAIRMAN, ORANGE COUNTY INVESTMENT
POOL (OCIP) COMMITTEE
SUBJECT: ORANGE COUNTY BANKRUPTCY UPDATE
My last update was provided to the Orange County City Managers' Association
(OCCMA) at our June 1998 meeting. At that time I reported on the $400 million
settlement with Merrill Lynch and Company.
Since June 1998 there have been a series of settlements with a total of $740 million in
recoveries. Recoveries have included: Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc.; Dean Witter
Reynolds, Inc.; Nomura Securities International, inc.; Merrill Lynch & Co.; KP�IG Peat
Marwick LLP; Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation; LeBoeuf, Lamb, Green &
MacRae LLP; and several others.
At present, lawsuit settlements remain with Standard & Poors; Rauscher Pierce Refnes,
Inc.; Brown & Wood; and 14 other brokers including Paine Webber, Inc.; Fuji Securities,
Inc.; Smith Barney, Inc.; Sanwa Securities; Citicorp Securities; Bear, Stearns & Co., Inc.;
Kidder Peabody & Co.; and the list goes on.
Mr. Tom Hayes, our representative, together with the County's legal advisors and the
OCIP team, continue to work with legal representatives from the other named firms to
bring forward additional settlements. As we speak, our team of professionals are in
negotiations with at least four of the aforementioned firms. We hope to have some
further announcements before the end of 1998.
I know you want to know when you will receive the proceeds from the $740 million. My
best estimate is in the first quarter of 1999. Judge Gary Taylor recently returned to the
bench after some heart problems. The judge will review the settlements, act on same,
and will give our representative Tom Hayes the authority to issue payment. I expect the
earliest we will receive our proceeds of litigation to be February or March 1999. In my
opinion, and assuming there are no legal impediments, all of us should have our checks
before the end of the 1998 -99 fiscal period. Albeit slow, progress is being made.
On a couple of other fronts, let me advise you that OCIP is working with the County on
two other items. First, we are in a debate on what is called "found funds," some $12
million which is in dispute with County staff. Second, we have worked out a settlement
with the County on $18 million in what is called the Appaloosa Disputed Claims
Jy
OCIP Update

Page 2
Reserve. The OCIP Committee believes we have an April 23, 1996 agreement with the
County that calls for "all found money" to be split 50150 between the County and OCIP.
The S18 million in the Appaloosa Disputed Claims Reserve will be turned over to Mr.
Hayes for distribution on a 60/40 allocation; 60% to OCIP and 40% to County.
As one who is on the "inside" of the ongoing unraveling of the bankruptcy, I can tell you
that significant progress has and continues to be made on your behalf. When the
previous litigation settlement monies are received, each of us will have received over
90% payment. I know in Irvine's case, we will have recovered 96 % of our monies. Each
city's situation may differ.
I will close this update by stating this: the OCIP Committee, together with Paul
Glassman, Pat Shea and other attorneys, and Mr. Tom Hayes and the County's cadre of
bankruptcy attorneys, is aggressively pursuing settlements with all parties to the
litigation. Our work is ongoing and, as in our previous settlements, progress is being
made each day. While the wheels of litigation settlements may appear to be slow (they
are for some of us), I can report that the County's legal counsel, as well as OCIP's
advisors and OCIP Committee members, are being diligent in our work.
As Pat Shea said at the outset, "keep our eye on the ball and we will cross the goal line."
Folks, we are almost there. Remain patient and we will cross the goal line.

RE: Proposed Board of Directors Policy
RECEIVED

COSTA MESA SANITARY DISTRICT
RIVERSIDE ISAN BERNARDINO CO.
(909) 974 -0699
The attached Policy has been proposed by the SDRMA for adoption by the Board. Adoption will
save the Board $1800 per year in insurance premiums. In discussions with Jim Townsend, the
Executive Director and Risk Manager of the SDRMA, he has stated that the policy is meant to
eliminate sources of liability that they have experienced with Districts.
When we reviewed the Policy we determined that it did not quite fit in some respects with the
law as it applies to sanitary districts. When we brought that to Mr. Townsend's attention he
stated that he understood that, and desired that it only be used as an example of what , the
SDRMA would like to see, and that we were free to modify the document to fit our District's
needs.
Staff has reviewed the document and believes that there is something to be gained by
incorporating some of the material. Staff also thought that it would be inappropriate to do so
without your input. Therefore the Policy is being put before you for a general discussion before
revisions are made to the document.

D) BOARD ACTION
0
The Board shall act only by ordinance, resolution, or motion. Except where action is taken by
the unanimous vote of all Directors present and voting, the ayes and noes shall be taken upon
the passage of all ordinances, resolutions or motions and shall be entered in the minutes. An
ordinance does not require two readings at separate meetings, and unless otherwise provided by
its own terms, shall become effective upon adoption. All motions, including a motion to adopt
an ordinance or to approve a resolution, shall require a second. If a second is not received, the
motion shall die without the requirement of a vote. Any member of the Board, excluding the
President, can make and second a motion, but the President may vote on all motions unless
disqualified or abstaining. The President shall not call for a vote on any motion until sufficient
time has been allowed to permit any member of the Board to speak. Complex motions should
generally be prepared in writing and read aloud to the members of the Board at the time the
motion is made. If a motion is not in writing, and if it is necessary for full understanding of the
matter before the Board, the President shall restate the questiodprior to the vote. Common
motions may be stated in abbreviated form, and will be put into complete form in the minutes.
Until the President states the question, the maker with the approval of the second may modify
his motion or withdraw it completely. However, after the question has been stated by the
President, the motion may be changed only by a motion to amend which is seconded and carried.
E) PARLIAMENTARY PROCEDURES AFFECTING MOTIONS
After a motion has been made and seconded, any member of the Board may make any of the
following motions:
1. To continue the motion to a specific time.
2. To table the motion, the effect of which defers further discussion and a vote until the
majority of the board again wishes to resume consideration of the motion.
3. To commit or refer the motion to a committee, the effect of which is to defer further
consideration until the corn nittee has reported its findings to the Board.
4. To amend the motion to modify its wording before adoption, provided the suggested
amendment is germane to the original motion.
5. To propose a substitute motion, which has the effect of disposing of the motion before
the Board and eliminating the necessity of a vote on the original motion.
F) ROUTINE BUSINESS
Matters of routine business such as approval of the minutes and approval of minor matters,
may be expedited by assuming unanimous consent of the members of the Board and having the
President state that without objection the matter will stand approved. If any member should

burden of proving undue hardship rests with the agency, and what may be an undue hardship for
one agency may not be an undue hardship for another, depending on factors such as cost and

opportunity to pay for the portion of the cost that constitutes an undue hardship, or to personally
provide the accommodation...

C A L IFD, R N I
TO: ORANGE COUNTY CITY MANAGERS' ASSOCIATION MEMBERS
FROM: PAUL BRADY, JR., CHAIRMAN, ORANGE COUNTY INVESTMENT
POOL (OCIP) COMMITTEE
SUBJECT: ORANGE COUNTY BANKRUPTCY UPDATE
My last update was provided to the Orange County City Managers' Association
(OCCMA) at our June 1998 meeting. At that time I reported on the $400 million
settlement with Merrill Lynch and Company.
Since June 1998 there have been a series of settlements with a total of 5740 million in
recoveries. Recoveries have included: Morgan Stanley & Co., Inc.; Dean Witter
Reynolds, Inc.; Nomura Securities International, inc.; Merrill Lynch & Co.; KPMG Peat
Marwick LLP; Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation; LeBoeuf, Lamb, Green &
MacRae LLP; and several others.
At present, lawsuit settlements remain with Standard & Poors; Rauscher Pierce Refnes,
Inc.; Brown & Wood; and 14 other brokers including Paine Webber, Inc.; Fuji Securities,
Inc.; Smith Barney, Inc.; Sanwa Securities; Citicorp Securities; Bear, Stearns & Co., Inc.;
Kidder Peabody & Co.; and the list goes on.
Mr. Tom Hayes, our representative, together with the County's legal advisors and the
OCIP team, continue to work with legal representatives from the other named firms to
bring forward additional settlements. As we speak, our team of professionals are in
negotiations with at least four of the aforementioned firms. We hope to have some
further announcements before the end of 1998.
I know you want to know when you will receive the proceeds from the $740 million. My
best estimate is in the first quarter of 1999. Judge Gary Taylor recently returned to the
bench after some heart problems. The judge will review the settlements, act on same,
and will give our representative Tom Hayes the authority to issue payment. I expect the
earliest we will receive our proceeds of litigation to be February or March 1999. In my
opinion, and assuming there are no legal impediments, all of us should have our checks
before the end of the 1998 -99 fiscal period. Albeit slow, progress is being made.
On a couple of other fronts, let me advise you that OCIP is working with the County on
two other items. First, we are in a debate on what is called "found funds," some $12
million which is in dispute with County staff. Second, we have worked out a settlement
with the County on $18 million in what is called the Appaloosa Disputed Claims
OCIP Update
November 2, 1998
Page 2
Reserve. The OCIP Committee believes we have an April 23, 1996 agreement with the
County that calls for "all found money" to be split 50150 between the County and OCIP.
The $18 million in the Appaloosa Disputed Claims Reserve will be turned over to Mr.
Hayes for distribution on a 60/40 allocation; 60% to OCIP and 40% to County.
As one who is on the "inside" of the ongoing unraveling of the bankruptcy, I can tell you
that significant progress has and continues to be made on your behalf. When the
previous litigation settlement monies are received, each of us will have received over
90% payment. I know in Irvine's case, we will have recovered 96% of our monies. Each
city's situation may differ.
I will close this update by stating this: the OCIP Committee, together with Paul
Glassman, Pat Shea and other attorneys, and Mr. Tom Hayes and the County's cadre of
bankruptcy attorneys, is aggressively pursuing settlements with all parties to the
litigation. Our work is ongoing and, as in our previous settlements, progress is being
made each day. While the wheels of litigation settlements may appear to be slow (they
are for some of us), I can report that the County's legal counsel, as well as OCIP's
advisors and OCIP Committee members, are being diligent in our work:
As Pat Shea said at the outset, "keep our eye on the ball and we will cross the goal line."
Folks, we are almost there. Remain patient and we will cross the goal line.

DISTRICT
RE: FUNDING FOR NEW GRAVITY SEWER IN FAIRVIEW PARK
CMSD #160
Dear Bill:
ATTACHMENT. I
To recap our respective understandings and previous written correspondence, this letter will
serve to memorialize both the City's and District's responsibilities in providing a new sewer
system through Fairview Park.
As an overview, both the City and District recognize the public need for a gravity sewer system
through the park. The park will eventually have rest rooms near the future Interpretative Center,
rest rooms northerly of the park entrance, rest rooms and snack bar at the Orange County Model
Engineers (OCME) facility, and rest rooms on school district property along the northwesterly
boundary of Estancia High School. Additionally, the City may desire additional future plumbing
connections at various locations.
A conceptual study by the District in 1993 disclosed that the best engineering solution is a
gravity sewer system beginning in Canyon Drive and running northerly and northeasterly,
eventually crossing Placentia Avenue with an extra leg to the Estancia High School property, all
as shown on the attached Exhibit `A'. Alternate sewer facilities such as septic tanks, holding
tanks, and a pumping station were studied but found to be too costly over the long term or
inadequate to best serve the needs of the entire park.
Therefore, the, City and District agree as follows: .
District agrees to:
• The District will design, construct, own, operate and maintain a gravity sewer system from
Canyon Drive to the easterly side of Placentia Avenue as shown on the attached exhibit.
District will also construct a southeasterly leg to the Estancia High School Property line.
• District will fund the project with the exception of a $5,000 contribution from OCME, a
$15,000 contribution from the City, and an additional $5,000 contribution from the City if
the money is available after the City satisfies its financial agreement with OCME.
• The District will provide extra sewer wyes. for future sewer connections at locations
suggested by City.

• Future sewer connections shall be approved by the District and constructed to District
standards.
• District will prepare easement maps and legal descriptions for execution by the City Council.
• In compliance with mitigation measures applied to the Fairview Park Master Plan (FPMP),
District agrees to construct the sewer line in such a manner so as not to damage the existing
sensitive vernal pools and marsh and natural features in the vicinity of the construction.
Construction fencing shall be installed at the edge of the vernal marsh and vernal pool No. 5
to prevent intrusion into these areas.
District agrees to allow a City approved archeologist to monitor trenching activities in
compliance with mitigation measures in the FPMP. The City shall pay for the cost of this
monitoring. _ -
The sewer alignment shall be in accordance with the approved FPMP, and as verified in a
field meeting on 8/25/98 with District and City officials present. The City has verified that
this alignment will eliminate any need for further environmental review, and will not require
any permits from other agencies such as the State Dept. of Fish and Game, the Army Corps
of Engineers, the Department of Fish and Wildlife, the California Coastal Commission or
any other agency having jurisdiction over wildlife or wetlands.
The City agrees to:
• The City shall grant the District a 15 foot wide easement along the sewer line.
• The City shall contribute between $15,000 - $20,000 as described above as a one -time
consideration.
• Fees shall be paid to the District for all sewer connections which consist of fixture fees and
yearly sewer charges, both of which are nominal for a restroom facility.
• The City shall allow open cut and repair of Placentia Ave. per City Std. 813 for the sewer
crossing.
• The City's future development will not prevent access to the sewer line or manholes.
• Towards the end of the design phase, the District will submit easement documents to the
City for Council execution and recordation.
• Towards the end of the construction phase, the District will submit to the City an invoice for
the City's contribution in an amount between $15,000 - $20,000 as previously mentioned
and as agreed upon by the District Manager and Director of Public Services /City Engineer.
Thank you for your contribution and assistance in coordinating the project.
Please show your acceptance to these terms by countersigning and returning this letter.

supply separate recycling
containers. Since we recycle
for you, there is no need for
sorting your waste before
placing at the curb for

All of the recyclables and
trash are delivered to a large

We can also easily adapt to
changes in the science of
recycling. Our recycler is
currently diverting 37 V2 % of
the total waste stream, all
with no effort from residents.
State law, AB939, mandates
that by the year 2000 we
recycle 50% of our total
waste. We're well on our
way to meeting the goal!

Sharps
Program
A free home generated
sharps (syringes /needles)
recycling program is now
available to Costa Mesa
and Santa Ana Heights residents.
The program is the first of its kind
in Orange County.
Three local pharmacies, RiteAid
at 3029 Harbor Blvd., Steven's
Pharmacy at 1525 Mesa Verde Dr.
East, and Ramsey Rexall at 2246
Newport Blvd. in Costa Mesa are
participating in this unique
program. Residents who use
needles at home are invited to
visit the pharmacies and pick up a
free quart-sized container. The
containers hold approximately
100 used syringes. Residents may
return filled containers to the
pharmacies for collection, and
will receive a new one in exchange.
Large Item
Call -In
Our summertime Large Item Collection
Program helps residents dispose of
unwanted furniture and appliances. In
addition to the summer program, residents
may call 949/646 -4617 and arrange a
special large item pickup, one time during
the calendar year.
Watch Your Weight
Containers that weigh more than 50 pounds can
easily injure the waste collection workers. The
District requires that the combined weight of the
container and contents may not exceed 50 pounds. If
in doubt, please separate the items into two
containers or heavy duty trash bags. Plastic and
paper grocery bags are not acceptable containers. A
maximum of 200 pounds per household can be
collected each week.
Scavenging is Illegal
Anyone going through your trash is a scavenger
and is illegally stealing your recyclables.
Scavenging is also a front for other crimes such as
obtaining blank checks or discarded credit card
receipts. Please report scavenging activity to the
District at 714/754 -5307.
Holiday Tree
Recycling
Once again the City of Costa Mesa and the
Costa Mesa Sanitary District will be
providing the annual Holiday Tree Recycling
Program. Residents are asked to
remove the stands and all decorations
from their trees and place them at the curb
on their regular trash collection day. Costa
Mesa Disposal will be sending a special
truck to pick up the trees from December
28' through January 8�, 1999. The
recycled trees are used for weed
abatement and erosion control. I M

HIDE YOUR CONTAINERS
Residents are reminded to bring containers
out to the curb, no earlier than 5 p.m. the day
before collection. Containers should be
placed behind the curb, not in the street.
Placing containers behind the curb is a good
practice since it doesn't interfere with parked
cars or impede the flow of water. After
collection, bring empty containers back to
your storage location before midnight.
Containers must be stored out of the public
view.
Hint: Ever want to dispose of a trash
container? Attach a note to the container
that states, "Please Take! ".

Re: Sharps Program Update
Solid Waste professionals meet quarterly and attend a meeting entitled the
Southern California Household Hazardous Materials Information, Exchange. At
the September 23, 1998 meeting, several cities reported information on their
Sharps Program.
• Ontario - Developing a Sharps Program
• Rancho Cucamonga - Sharps Program is in its second year
• Santa Barbara - Is researching the possibility of a Sharps Program
• Moreno Valley - Primary goal is to implement a Sharps Program
• Fontana - Sharps Program started on October 3, 1998
It should be noted that none of these entities are in Orange County. Costa Mesa
Sanitary District still has the only program available locally. As of September 30,
1998, the District has collected 571 pounds of material and is operating in three
pharmacy sites.

During the third month of the District's HHW program, a total of 39 residential
pickups were achieved. The pickups were completed on two collection days,
October 6th and 20th, 1998. This resulted in the collection of 114 gallons of used
oil, 10 gallons of antifreeze, 15 auto batteries, and 207 gallons of latex paint.
The following is a chart that illustrates the amount of materials collected each
month for the first three months of the program.

Re:
Tire Collection Event, 10/17/98
A total of 159 tires were brought to the Tire Collection Event held on Saturday,
October 17, 1998. Last year's program produced 87 tires.
One resident brought in four tires that had been stored in his garage for 30 years.
The oldest tire brought in for recycling was 70 years old although the resident
had only been storing it for 12 years. Many of the residents had a story about
their tires and what had happened to make them unusable. Some told tales of
amateur racing, nails, utility knife blades, and pit bulls. The average storage time
of each tire was 5.8 years.
The chart below indicates the how our participants found out about the event.
The District was fortunate to have multiple press releases published in the Daily
Pilot, LA Times, and the OC Register.
