(1) Report dated March 3, 1998, from the Senior Management Analyst II, advising that
two unsolicited letters of interest had been received to develop a public 18 -hole
championship golf course on approximately 369 acres of public land at the terminus
of Camino Las Ramblas bordering the San Clemente City limits; that both letters had
expressed a desire to design, construct and operate the facility through a cooperative
arrangement with the City. This property had been dedicated to the City from
Glendale Federal via a Quitclaim Deed. The Report provided background information
and highlighted options for exploring the golf course concept. The Report
recommended issuance of a Request for Qualifications, because the process was less
committal and would allow the City to review developer experience and past history.

allow discussion within the community and the within the development community to begin
in order to explore the possibilities and determine the level of support. He stressed that this
was a preliminary action and if the level of support warranted further action, the Council
could either select a respondent to the Request for Qualifications or move to the more formal
Request for Proposal process. The City Manager advised that at some point in the process
consultant services would be retained to provide technical assistance to staff.
Council Member Campbell stressed that this action did not indicate either future approval or
denial, noting there were many questions and concerns to be addressed. She also indicated
that the land should only be used in ways that would ultimately assist in meeting the
recreational needs of the community. The City Manager concurred that many issues needed
to be explored before any final decision would be made.

unanimously carried to approve the issuance of a Request for Qualifications for golf course
development on the Glendale Federal South Open Space, with staff authorized to retain

Written Communications:
(1) Report dated March 3, 1998, from the Planning Director, forwarding a revised City
Council Policy 508 which would establish standards for the use of sound systems in
Descanso Veterans Park, Historic Town Center Park, Cook Park (La Novia and
Cordova), the Sports Park, and the Marco Forster Athletic Fields. The use would be
allowed only upon approval of a City -issued facility use permit; sound systems would
be prohibited at all other public parks. The proposed revisions included regulations
for the location of sound systems, sound system output, and speaker orientation. The
Report also forwarded revisions to Administrative Policy 607 which would modify the
hours of operation for Cook Park (Cordova) from a Saturday starting time of 8:00
a.m. for games and practices to 9:00 a.m., with field preparation to begin no earlier
than 8:30 a.m.
(2) Memorandum dated February 26, 1998, from the Planning Director, forwarding a
memorandum from the Community Services Director dated February 24, 1998,
advising that on February 23, 1998, the Parks, Recreation and Equestrian Commission
had reviewed the modifications and had unanimously supported the staff
recommendations with regard to amplification. However, the Commission did not
support the staff recommendation that game starting times at Cook Park Cordova be
set at 9:00 a.m. The Commission recommended starting times remain as currently
scheduled.
(3) Letter received February 23, 1998, from Richard Bennett, 25632 Purple Sage Lane,
citing opposition to amplified sound systems in City parks.
(4) Memorandum dated March 2, 1998, from the Community Services Director, advising
that Ordinance No. 782 provided that park operating hours would begin at 8:00 a.m.
Staff Comments:
Bill Ramsey, Senior Planner, discussed the proposed revisions to the policy for use of
amplified sound systems in the parks. The Community Services Director discussed the hours
the parks are currently in use and the issues associated with the usage at Cook Park, Cordova.
He noted that the Community Services Department has allowed groups to arrive one-half
hour earlier than their start time to prepare the fields. He noted that Bobby Sox had
concurred with the staff recommendation to move game times at Cook Park, Cordova to 9:00
a.m., on Saturday, to coincide with the Sunday start times. He advised that AYSO had
opposed the change due to its negative impact on their scheduling. He advised that there has
been tremendous growth in the youth sports organizations and the number of hours the parks
are being used has also increased, even though new field have been added. Those fields are
being used to their maximum because of the popularity of the youth sports.

' Public Input:
(1) Roy Nunn, 31011 Paseo Valencia, representing AYSO, urged the Council to support
the Parks, Recreation and Equestrian Commission recommendation, advising that a
later start time would cause the loss of a round of games. He advised the
organization had not received any complaints, either from residents or City staff, and
was not aware there was a problem. He offered to "self -police" the situation.
Council Member Swerdlin concurred with the idea of "self -policing" and suggested
the item be continued for 60 to 90 days to allow AYSO and residents adjacent to the
park to reach a consensus.
(2) Andrew Millerd, 31182 Via Cristal, spoke regarding the noise on Saturday mornings
and the congestion created by the traffic and parking in the area. He noted that at the
present time players were not to be in the park prior to 7:30 a.m., but in reality they
arrived much earlier. He felt that AYSO's concerns about losing a round of games
supported his assertion that the parks had reached a saturation point and there was
too much congestion. He asked that the negative impacts on adjacent residents be
considered and the staff recommendation be supported.
Discussion ensued regarding field usage and conditions, as well as possible compromises
between AYSO and the adjacent neighborhood. Consensus was reached between Mr. Nunn
and Mr. Millerd that arrival time at Cook Park, Cordova, would be no earlier than 8:00 a.m.,
with games to start at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday mornings.
' Approval of Revisions:
It was moved by Council Member Hart, seconded by Council Member Swerdlin and
unanimously carried to approve City Council Policy 508, as revised, relating to the
establishment of amplified sound system standards; and, to concur with the modification of
Administrative Policy 607 regarding revised hours of operations for Cook Park (Cordova),
to allow field preparation time to begin at 8:00 a.m., and games to start at 8:30 a.m.
Written Communications:
Report dated March 3, 1998, from the City Clerk, advising that the Ordinance was
