WORK STUDY SESSION Bowers Musetm~Board of Governors Deputy City Manager Perkins and Bowers Museum Director Lee presented a proposed structure for governance of the Bowers Museum to the Council, indicating the Board of Governors would be composed of seven Council appointees, the City Manager of the City of Santa Ana, and the President of the Bowers Muse~n, with each rm~nber to have a specific area for oversight of the Museum's internal operations. Council- m~nbers expressed approval of the proposed structure but concern that all members must be qualified electors of the City. The City Manager and City Attorney suggested that a non-profit corporation he created in lieu of a City Comnission, to eliminate the requirement that the governors be Santa Ana residents with the by-laws of the corporation requiring Council approval of any appointments to the Board of Governors. MOTION: Direct the City Attorney to prepare the appropriate documents to establish a non-profit corporation to operate the Bowers Museum, including clauses which would permit appointment of non-City residents to the corporation board and by-laws approval by the City Council; and return an impl~nentation report to the Council in 30 days.

Deputy City Manager Perkins reported to the Council the findings and recommendations contained in the Study dated March 19, 1985, outlining such provisions as the need to establish a separate Emergency Medical Services division in the Fire Department, to raise paramedic service fees, to install a subscription program, to provide continuing education for paramedics, to establish a Quality Assurance Review Board and an Emergency Medical Services Advisory C~ission. She explained that the program would not have full-cost recovery, reflected increased costs for paramedic services, and did not include centralized dispatch. Councilm~nbers co~ented on the program and raised concerns regarding staffing, marketing of the program, cc~unications/dispatch and program financing, including the subscription rate level. The Council recessed at 2:35 p.m., and reconvened at 2:50 p.m., with all Councilmembers present. Corridor Development Fees The Executive Director of the Public Services Agency provided an over- view of the County's proposed major thoroughfare and bridge develop- ment program, indicating the San Joaquin Corridor was projected to cost $350 million, the Eastern Corridor, $250 million, and the Foot- hill Corridor, $420 million. He explained the purposes of the program were to relieve congestion on existing freeways and to assist develop- ment, noting that an assessment would be levied on developers with the assessment fee to be dete~minedby proximity to the freeway, as well as trip ends. Councilmembers discussed extensively the proposed cor- ridor program and requested the City Manager prepare a statement of endorsament relative to the San Joaquin Corridor program and rejection to the Eastern/Foothill Corridors.
