6. SCHEDULING USE OF JOINT USE FACILITIES/TECHNICAL ADVISORY
COMMITTEE
The City Manager of the City (the "City Manager") and the Superintendent of the District (the
"Superintendent") are authorized and directed to create the Technical Advisory Committee which
shall meet no less than once every 2 months to agree upon scheduling of the Joint Use Facilities
for the succeeding 4 months. The Technical Advisory Committee shall be composed of up to 4
5
0 0
persons, 2 each appointed by the City Manager and the Superintendent (and may include the City
Manager and/or the Superintendent). The Technical Advisory Committee shall be responsible
for resolving conflicts in scheduling City Time. The District and the City agree to submit a list
of activities each seeks to schedule in the Joint Use Facilities during City Time, at least 4
months in advance.
The District and the City recognize and agree that the purpose of this Agreement is to ensure the
Joint Use Facilities are of benefit to all of the community, particularly its young people. As such
the City acknowledges that a full-service high school utilizes significant amounts of time outside
of Regular School Hours for student activities, and that the District does not always have
unilateral control over scheduling of after-school activities, particularly in the area of athletics.
The parties acknowledge that at various times, and particularly on weekdays during the school
year, there will be times when the District will need to use some of the Joint Use Facilities during
City Time. Therefore, the Technical Advisory Committee will approve District use during City
Time for any such activities for students of the High School. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Technical Advisory Committee will approve District use during City Time for
those activities even when the use/activity was not previously included on the list of activities
submitted by the District as required by this Section, where the need for such use or activity arose
subsequent to the submission of that list for reasons beyond the District's control. Examples
(without limitation) include rescheduling of athletic events due to rain delays of previously
scheduled events, and scheduling additional athletic events beyond regular season events where a
school team advances to playoff-level games.
Likewise, the District acknowledges that the facility is intended to serve the entire community,
and therefore it needs to take special effort to minimize District use of the Joint Use Facilities
during City Time. Therefore, the Technical Advisory Committee is to use all reasonable efforts
to cause the scheduling of other District facilities whenever it is considering use of the Joint Use
Facilities for a District activity during City Time that is not primarily for the benefit of students
of the High School. In the event it so determines, and the City has a need for such facilities, then
the District will make another District-owned facility available to the City or its designees or
permittees under the same terms as this Agreement.
The Technical Advisory Committee will also be responsible for scheduling periods where
Athletic Fields, courts and other Joint Use Facilities will be unavailable to both the City and the
District in order to allow replanting, reseeding or repair of grass areas, resurfacing of courts, and
other necessary maintenance or repair work. In establishing such periods, the Technical
Advisory Committee shall take into consideration scheduling needs of the High School's athletic
and physical education programs. For the purpose of example, the football field may need to be
closed for two separate periods of up to eight weeks each year for replanting, reseeding and
restoration. The Technical Advisory Committee should attempt to schedule these closure periods
during the football program's season break and during the summer immediately prior to the
commencement of the football so as to minimize impact on the football program. Similar
periodic closures [although possibly for different lengths and at different times through out the
6
• •
year] will be needed to perform similar field maintenance activities with respect to baseball,
softball and soccer fields; all such periodic closures shall be scheduled to minimize disruption of
the District's baseball, softball and soccer programs, while still respecting to the extent possible
the purpose of this agreement to facilitate use by the City.
Members of the Technical Advisory Committee will also be empowered to discuss and resolve
conflicts in implementing all other provisions of this Agreement. Either party may submit issues
related to maintenance, security, programming or other issue which may arise from time to time,
and both parties agree to cooperate in good faith to resolve matters through the Committee. The
unanimous consent of the Technical Advisory Committee shall not be required to resolve a
question posed to the Technical Advisory Committee, provided that (a) reasonable effort is made
to contact all members and to allow them to participate in the resolution, and (b) at least one
City-appointed member and one District-appointed member agree upon the resolution of the
question.
7. PROGRAMMING OUTSIDE OF AGREEMENT
In addition to City Time, the City and District agree to cooperate throughout the term of this
agreement to permit the City to use the Joint Use Facilities for programming as programs are
identified from time to time by the City subject to general District scheduling procedures and
regulations. In general the hours may be from 3:00 pm - 10:00 pm during the school year and
7:00 am - 10 pm during the Summer and Holidays. City shall have use of Joint Use Facilities for
special programs and special events as available.
8. CITY CONTRIBUTION FOR CUSTODIAL, UTILITY AND MAINTENANCE
The District and the City understand and agree that a material aspect of the City's consideration
for agreeing to convey the land for the High School is obtaining the perpetual right to use the
Joint Use Facilities for City programming purposes. The District and the City also understand
and agree that it is impracticable to accurately calculate the incremental costs (if any) to the
District to permit the City usages contemplated herein, particularly taking into consideration the
potential for other community uses (without contribution to costs) if the City rights were not
exercised. Therefore, the parties hereby agree that the City's obligation to contribute to the
District's costs for custodial, utility and maintenance expense will be limited to the following,
recognizing that such contribution may or may not fully compensate the District for its actual
incremental costs attributable to the City's exercise of its rights hereunder.
A. The City shall reimburse the District on a monthly basis (or as otherwise agreed
by the Technical Advisory Committee) for a pro rata share of actual electrical utility costs
incurred by the District attributable to the times that the City uses the Joint Use Facilities. Where
feasible, the District shall install separate metering technology to measure City use vs. District
use. Otherwise, the pro rata share shall be established from time to time by the Technical
Advisory Committee based upon actual usage by the City and actual electrical utility costs
incurred by the District.
7
0 0
B. The City shall reimburse the District annually for its pro rata share of cost of
reseeding and repair of the Athletic Fields. The City's contribution to these costs shall be based
on a calculated estimate of the percentage of active use of the fields by the City compared to
active use by the District, multiplied by the actual cost incurred by the District.
C. As its contribution to regular custodial services expense for use of all Joint Use
Facilities, the City shall pay to the District as follows:
(i) for each City-operated fee based program $1.00 for each registered participant;
or,
(ii) for each third-party-operated fee based program, 33% of any fee or charge the
City receives from the third party operator; and,
(iii) a payment of $10.00 per day per facility used (e.g. $10 .00 each for use of the
auditorium, the band room, athletic field, gymnasium, and/or a classroom.)
9. SUPERVISORY AND SECURITY OBLIGATIONS OF CITY
The City shall be entitled access via keys or other access devices to Joint Use Facilities. The City
shall use those keys or access devices only to gain access to the Joint Use Facilities during times
when the City has scheduled the use of the Joint Use Facilities. The City shall provide a level of
supervision and security commensurate with that provided at City-owned facilities at all times
while using the Joint Use Facilities (and for reasonable periods of time immediately prior to an
following such use). The District shall perform all custodial services relative to the Joint Use
Facilities (although the District shall have no obligation to supervise recreational activities
conducted at the Joint Use Facilities by the City or by third parties to whom the City has granted
the use of the Joint Use Facilities pursuant to this Agreement). The City shall regularly inspect
all fields and other facilities prior to use and note any concerns to the district for repair. The City
shall pay for any damages of Joint Use Facilities and equipment caused by the City's usage and/or
by usage of third-parties approved by the City.
10. OBLIGATIONS OF DISTRICT
During the term of this AGREEMENT, DISTRICT hereby covenants and agrees to the following:
A. Allow CITY to lawfully and peacefully use and enjoy the Joint Use Facilities in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
B. Perform the usual maintenance of the Joint Use Faculties as required under normal
working conditions and fair wear and tear.
11. RESTRICTIONS ON FENCING.
The Athletic Fields and hard courts shall not be fenced off from the remainder of Centennial
Park so as to maximize the joint use potential of the facilities. The design of the other Joint Use
8
•
Facilities shall ensure reasonable access from the City's facilities in Centennial Park without
access through the school campus.
12. RESERVED.
13. EQUIPMENT USE:
Each entity is responsible for providing its own equipment, materials and supplies for its own
programs. The parties may agree to share use of certain specific items, such as school classroom
desks, tables, chairs, computers, chalkboards, etc. If equipment is damaged or destroyed during a
specific program or event, the entity responsible for the program or event shall pay for the damage
or destruction under the insurance deductible(s). The entity that insured the property will file
claim(s) with its insurer(s) if the damage or loss is greater than the insurance deductible(s).
14. LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION
A. The City shall be financially responsible for damages caused by City use under this Agreement.
B. The City shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless District, its officers, agents, employees,
representatives, and volunteers from damage to property and for injury to or death of any person
and from all claims, demands, actions, liability, or damages of any kind or nature arising out of or
in connection with activities or programs sponsored by City under this Agreement, third party
activities programmed or sponsored by the City, and City programming outside of City Time,
except those which arise out of a dangerous/defective condition of District property or due to the
sole negligence of the District.
C. The District shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the City, its officers, agents, employees,
representatives, and volunteers from damage to property and for injury to or death of any person
and from all claims, demands, actions, liability, or damages of any kind or nature arising out of its

Facilities, except as provided in "B" above.
15. INSURANCE
Both the City and the District shall maintain, for the period covered by this Agreement, at their own
respective costs, their own respective policy or policies of general liability insurance and property
insurance. Each party waives subrogation of its insurance coverage for the other entity. Self-
insurance authorized by state law and/or maintained by the City or the District in the regular course
of business for its other activities shall satisfy this requirement.
16. APPLICABILITY OF CIVIC CENTER ACT
The City acknowledges that with respect to those portions of the High School that are not subject
to this Agreement, the District is required to and shall comply with the "Civic Center Act" as
codified at Education Code sections 38130 through 38139. Nothing contained herein shall
prevent the District from making said exclusively-controlled portions of the High School
available to groups and individuals as authorized and/or directed by the Civic Center Act.

would be significantly higher in five years and that the high school at
Centennial Park was desperately needed. The proposed high school has
been designated as a fundamental school focusing on science and
technology, will serve grades 9-12, and, is projected to open in 2005 with
an enrollment of 2,500. At this time there is no fundamental high school in
Santa Ana.
Dr. Mijares further outlined the opportunities for joint use and provided
details on t he recreational facilities t hat h ave b een s pecified i n t he j oint
use agreement with the City. He stated that the proposed high school will
not only reduce over-crowding in the City's high schools but will increase
athletic areas as well as provide a performing arts center.
The following members of the public spoke on the project:
Patricia A. Michel, representing the Windsor Village Neighborhood
Association expressed concerns relative to the taking of open space for
use by the school.

Steve McGuigan noted that the open space recommendation by the State
of California is 10 acres per 1000 population; the current average ratio in
urban cities is 6 acres per 1000 population. With the reduction of 18 acres
of parkland in Centennial Park, the ratio in Santa Ana will be .88 acres per
1000 population. He also expressed concern that only Santa Ana Unified
students can attend the fundamental high school at Centennial Park, and
that some west end students will not be able to attend because they are in
another school district.
Cheryl Brothers, Board of Directors, Discovery Museum reported that the
Discovery Museum and the Santa Ana Unified School District have been
in negotiations for a long time. The Discovery Museum has gone forward
with negotiations with the school district; however, there are still a few
outstanding issues. These issues have been raised more than 6 months
ago, but the parties have not had an opportunity to sit down and discuss
these issues. Ms. Brothers emphasized that the two sides are very close
to an agreement, and that the Discovery Museum was ready and willing to
meet and work out the last two remaining issues and asked if the City
would like to participate in these discussions.
Robert Henson, Sr. expressed concern relative to the loss of vital green
space, and that students west of the Santa Ana River attending Garden
Grove District schools will not have access to the park or the school.
Nancy Lutz, member, Board of Directors of the Discovery Museum, asked
the City Manager or City Attorney to explain the arrangement between the
Santa Ana Unified School District and the City so that that board will have
clarity as to what needs to be done in order for the school district to gain
the rights to the park property. She noted that there were still two
outstanding issues that are of concern to the Board.
Joe Fletcher, City Attorney explained that under the terms of the ground
use and option agreement the lease becomes effective only upon delivery
of evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the City Manager of
compliance with ten pre-conditions. He further noted that one of these
provisions is final agreement for the termination of rights to a portion of the
District property by the Discovery Museum of Orange County.
Mayor Pulido asked the City Manager to assist in the negotiations with the
School District and the Discovery Museum and report to the City Council
in 90 days with a status report on this matter.

Councilmember Alvarez expressed concern about the timeline for
completing the agreement between the District and the Discovery
Museum. She noted that the Discovery Museum had expressed a
willingness to have the City participate in facilitating the agreement and
asked Dr. Mijares if the School District could make the same commitment.
Dr. M ijares responded t hat t he S chool D istrict w as willing t o a ccept t he
City's assistance, however, the District needs to quickly bring certainty to
the project to obtain state funds.
Council discussion ensued. Councilmember Solorio noted that more
facilities would be open after school hours for athletic and recreational
uses. Mayor Pulido noted that the City was not giving up green space, but
enhancing the area, because currently there are approximately ten acres
of undeveloped brown space that will be developed.
Mayor Pro Tern McGuigan stated that she could not support the project
because of t he I oss of o pen s pace, t he requirement t hat students m ust
reside in the Santa Ana Unified School District boundaries, overflow
parking in the neighborhoods, and traffic impacts. Councilmember Bist
thanked Mayor Pro Tern McGuigan for her vigilance in reviewing the
project environmental impact report and for fighting for a better agreement
for the City and residents. Councilmember Christy stated the importance
of protecting the interests of all concerned parties. Councilmember
Alvarez expressed concerns relative to delegating any decision making
authority to any agency other than the City.

City. In order to accommodate this lease the City must address the
following conditions:
• Centennial Regional Park Deed Restrictions:
The property at Centennial Regional Park was acquired from the
federal government with the requirement that the land be used solely
for recreational purposes and the National Park Service must approve
any improvements on the site.

• Development Agreement with the County of Orange:
An agreement was approved in 1976 between the City of Santa Ana and
the County of Orange for the development and maintenance of
Centennial Regional Park. The agreement requires the City and County
to share 50 percent in the revenue and maintenance costs of park
operations. Certain areas in the park were left undeveloped for
revenue producing concession opportunities. Currently the County
reimburses the City approximately $125,000 per year to off set
operational costs.
HECTOR GODINEZ FUNDAMENTAL HIGH SCHOOL IN CENTENNIAL REGIONAL PARK
All the recreational and sports activities for the school are planned on
park property and all the educational elements are planned on district
property. These arrangements are designed to fulfill the conditions of the
deed restrictions in order to obtain National Park Service approval of the
proposed high school concept. Facilities include an Administration
Building, School Library, Student Center, Visual Arts, Food facility, Music
Building, Performing Arts Facility, Gymnasium, Parking Structure, Baseball
and Soccer fields, Football field, and Track and Basketball courts.
Approximately 18.84 acres of park property will be leased to the district
for the sports, arts and support facility development and 5.89 acres of
district property will be used for the classrooms and educational
facilities. The plans to accommodate these improvements will require the
relocation or reconstruction of two existing ball fields, relocation of the
existing park maintenance facility, reconstruction of the existing park
restrooms and reorientation of the existing soccer field and cricket field
on City property. The architectural firm Villanueva/Arnoni and LPA Inc.,
under joint venture, was retained to design the high school to meet the
needs of the District, the conditions of the City Council and the
requirements of the Centennial Park deed restrictions.
CITY COUNCIL CONDITIONS
On August 7, 2000, the City Council approved the concept for the
development of a high school on portions of Centennial Regional Park in
partnership with the Santa Ana Unified School District subject to eight
conditions:
1. Satisfactory resolution of the School District's issues with the
Discovery Museum of Orange County.
2. Development of a mutually agreed to exemplary joint use agreement
between the City of Santa Ana and the Santa Ana Unified School
District for the use of facilities developed on the City's
