PROPOSED SANTA ANA RIVER CONSERVANCY, AB496 (CORREA) - ALVAREZ Councilmember Alvarez reported that the creation of the Santa Ana River Conservancy would allow the State to receive and spend funds from voter- approved statewide park bonds; develop open space and recreational opportunities; restore and preserve habitat and natural resources; and provide master plan guidance for the largest stream system in Southern California. Councilmember AIvarez moved, seconded by Councilmember Bist, that the letter drafted by her and amended by Councilmember Solorio, be approved by the Council and sent in support of AB 496. Christopher Leo, Chief of Staff for Assemblymember Lou Correa, addressed the Council and provided background information relative to the proposed bill sponsored by Assemblyr~ember Correa. He noted that the bill has received overwhelming support and to date only four entities, including the Orange County Board of Supervisors, the Orange County Water District, and the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Corridor Agencies have voiced opposition to the bill. Council discussion ensued. Councilmembers generally supported the proposed bill, however suggestions were made relative to specific issues of concern to the City of Santa Ana including the following: · The issue of governance - the cities directly adjacent to the Santa Ana River, including Santa Ana, should be voting members of the new conservancy CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 151 APRIL 21, 2003 COUNClLAGENDAITEMS The Orange County Water District should be consulted for input on the Bill's language Clarification of the role of the Army Corp of Engineers; in the past the Corp has concreted the portion of the Santa Ana River within the City to prevent floods. Alternative flood control measures should be identified Councilmember Franklin reported that, as a member of the Orange County Water District Board, he was present at the meeting when the Board took an action in opposition te the proposed Santa Ana Conservancy bill. He noted that the item was walked in as an emergency item, because the Board understood that the Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority (SAWPA) was going to take the item up the following day. Due to some miscommunication the board was under the impression that SAWPA had already considered and approved the measure. The Orange County Water Board felt that they had not been included in a process in which they were the principal stakeholders. Also, there were many concerns about governance and the lack of a need for an additional board since there are already 19 agencies currently with jurisdiction over the Santa Ana River. Councilmember Franklin further reported that the Foothill/Eastern Transportation Agencies also voted to oppose the Conservancy bill. He stated that this item was presented to the Board as an item to carefully watch, however, during the discussion the issues of governance, impact on the toll roads, and the 57 Freeway extension were brought up. At the Agencies meetings, Councilmember Franklin stated that he brought up the fact that he and City of Santa ^na have consistently opposed expansion of the 57 Freeway. He referenced a letter sent in September, 2000 and signed by him, Councilmember McGuigan, and Mayor Pre Tern Lutz which clearly expressed strong opposition to the extension of the 57 Freeway project because of the negative impaqt such extension would have on the many Santa ^na residents who live next to the Flood Control Channel. Councilmember Franklin commented that the regional boards he sits on did not receive the same kind of detailed information on the proposed bill that the City Council received tonight. Additionally, some of the questions raised by the boards have been addressed by new language. He strongly suggested that the Assemblymember consult with the Orange Council Water District Board. CITY COUNCIL MINUTES 152 APRIL 21, 2003 COUNCILAGENDAITEMS Motion: Pat McGuigan and Glen Stroud addressed the Council with concerns about the bill including the concern that Santa Ana and Orange County are not getting as much benefit from the bill as other areas, and the concern that residents may have to pay for flood insurance again if the concrete in the Santa Ana River is removed. Council discussion continued. Mayor P. ulido noted that he favored sending a letter but suggested a different format for the letter including support of AB 496 in concept, and listing some of the specific concerns that Councilmembers have expressed during this debate. This format was accepted by the maker of the original motion. Instruct staff to prepare a letter in support of the proposed Santa Ana River Conservancy Bill (AB496), in concept, on behalf of the City Council; language of the letter to be agreed to by the Mayor and Councilmember Alvarez and sent by Wednesday, April 23, 2003.
