C-1. Council Committee/Council Liaison Reports

C-1a. (City Council) Direct the City Administrator to Allow Removal and Replacement of Parkway Trees, Including Necessary Sidewalk Repairs, without Curb and Gutter Repair, by a Licensed, Permitted Contractor, (All at the Property Owner's Expense) Pursuant to the Beautification, Landscape and Tree (BLT) Committee Recommendation ( . ) Communication from Councilmember Gil Coerper on behalf of the Beautification, Landscape and Tree (BLT) Committee members, Mayor Pro Tem Jill Hardy and Councilmember Dave Sullivan transmitting the following Statement of Issue: The current City Tree Removal and Replacement Policy, approved by the City Council on March 15, 2004, allows property owners to remove street trees that are causing damage when the property owner also repairs and replaces any damaged adjacent sidewalk, curb, and gutter and replaces the tree with a city-approved species. This policy is intended to allow property owners waiting to have the repairs completed by the city, the opportunity to accelerate the schedule by funding the improvements themselves. To ease the financial burden on property owners wishing to accelerate the schedule for repairs, the Beautification, Landscape and Tree (BLT) Committee is recommending that the concrete repairs be limited only to the sidewalk.

Analysis:

The current Tree Removal and Replacement Policy allows property owners to remove and replace street trees that are causing damage to adjacent curb, gutter, and sidewalk without having to go through the Street Tree Petition process and not having to wait for city-funded repairs. Since March 15, 2004, the effective date of the policy change, numerous property owners have reviewed this opportunity with private, licensed, and insured contractors. Due to the high expense of the curb and gutter concrete work, many property owners have decided not to pursue the tree removal and replacement. Individual residents have requested that the city modify the removal and replacement policy to allow damaged sidewalk and tree removal replacement only, leaving the curb and gutter for city-funded repairs when resources become available.

Currently, over 100 street segments are awaiting work on the Street Tree Petition process. The estimated cost of these repairs exceeds $14 million. The March 15, 2004, policy revision was an attempt to allow greater flexibility to the property owners to address problem trees and concrete in front of their residences. The BLT Committee considers the enhancement of pedestrian travel as a high priority in recommending a modification to the existing policy.

Included here is the July 27, 2004 and the August 24, 2004 BLT staff reports, outlining the discussions that have taken place in regard to this issue.

Beautification, Landscape and Tree (BLT) Committee Action:

The BLT reviewed and approved the change to the policy at the September 28, 2004 meeting, by a vote of 2-1-0.

Recommended Action: Motion to:

Direct the City Administrator to allow removal and replacement of parkway trees, including necessary sidewalk repairs, without the repair of curb and gutter, all at the expense of the property owner, by a licensed contractor, after a city permit has been issued. All other conditions of the current Tree Removal and Replacement Policy will remain in effect.

H. City Council/Redevelopment Agency Items

H-1a. Submitted By Councilmember Dave Sullivan

(City Council) Waive Fees for American Legion Flag Project at Pier Plaza ( . ) Communication from Councilmember Dave Sullivan transmitting the following Statement of Issue: The American Legion of Huntington Beach has been raising funds to create a flag display at Pier Plaza. The group is ready to begin construction for the project, which will include the American flag, California State flag, with a pole for a third flag. Upon completion of the project, the display will be handed over to the city of Huntington Beach. The project is intended to complete Pier Plaza, as it was originally designed and built without the patriotic display of our national and state flags.

There are several statutory fees required for projects of this type. Specifically, this project is subject to a design review fee of approximately $900 and building plan check, permit and inspection fees of $300, totaling approximately $1,200.

Recommended Action: Because this project will become a city asset upon completion and is funded through personal donations collected by the American Legion, I am requesting the City Council waive all city fees for this project.

This project is a good example of a partnership with the community for a public purpose. Waiving the fees provides recognition of the American Legion's effort to improve the public right-of-way and encourages civic involvement in public projects.

H-1b. Submitted By Councilmember Dave Sullivan

(City Council) Approve Change in Starting Time of City Council Meetings: Study Session at 4:00 P.M., Closed Session at 5:00 P.M. and Regular Meeting at 6:00 P.M. ( . )

Communication from Councilmember Dave Sullivan transmitting the following Statement of Issue: Given the significance and length of agenda items, City Council Meetings are long and take many hours to conclude business. Several times, the meetings have been extending past midnight. It is difficult for staff and Council to function on such serious and complex issues so late into the night. As well, members of the public must stay late until their items are addressed. In most cases, staff and members of the public must return to work early the following morning.

Recommended Action: I am proposing that the City Council shift the beginning of City Council Meetings to 6 p.m. rather than 7 p.m. The Charter allows the City Council to set the meeting time [Section 303(a)] by ordinance or resolution. Should the Council agree to adjust the starting time for the public portion of the agenda, the City Administrator would need direction to prepare the proper documentation for the change.

Although it would not be necessary, the City Council may wish to consider changing the starting times of Study Sessions and Closed Sessions. Currently, we schedule Study Sessions at 5 p.m. or 5:30, depending upon the number of items to be considered, and Closed Sessions at 6 p.m. This generally allows time for a brief meal prior to the start of the Council Meeting. Should the Council desire, this action could include shifting the Study Session time to 4 p.m. and Closed Session time to 5 p.m.

H-2a. Submitted By Councilmember Connie Boardman

(City Council) Direct City Attorney to Return to Council the Draft Ordinance to Prohibit the Killing of Wild Birds in the City of Huntington Beach ( . )

Communication from Councilmember Connie Boardman transmitting the following Statement of Issue: Earlier in the year, the poison Avitrol was used to kill pigeons in Central Park by one of the city's concessionaires. The Council directed the City Attorney to draft an ordinance to ban the use of this toxin. However, upon further research by our City Attorney, she discovered the city was unable to enact such an ordinance since to do so would preempt state law. We can, however, change our existing animal protection ordinances to include protection of wild birds in the city. The City Attorney has drafted such an ordinance that would prohibit the killing of wild birds in the city, but was waiting for Council direction prior to bringing it back to us.
Recommended Action: Council direct the City Attorney to bring back to the Council the ordinance she has drafted to prohibit the killing of wild birds in the city.
