1 Mayor pro tem Cavecche - Status Report on Boarding House Task Force. (A2500.0 Ord-Ol-
06 Boardiug & Lodging Houses) TAPE 1924
STAFF REPORT SUMMARY: City Council directed that City staff representing various
departments be assembled to review overcrowding problems and what steps could be taken to
relieve overcrowded conditions, especially in single family neighborhoods. The consensus was:
1) While overcrowding does cause problems in a few neighborhoods, the problem is not
widespread; 2) Where there are violations, voluntary compliance is almost always achieved; 3)
There are situations that are perceived as overcrowded by neighbors, but don't violate any laws;
and 4) There are some additional regulations that will be proposed to the City Council to address
overcrowding.
Discussion - City Attorney, David DeBerry provided a status report. He stated there is still a question
of how long of a grace period to apply to homes which operated legally under the old boarding
house ordinance, but under the new ordinance were not in compliance. He stated that the letter
to the State Assembly in support of AB 3007 supports inclusion of a 300-foot distance
requirement between licensed sober living facilities. He stated that the issues of distance
requirements; definition of facilities occupying a single-family home; and usage of the
permit parking program to address parking and traffic problems would be brought to Council in
the future. He further stated that Council may decide to address changes to the State Uniform
Housing Code which preempts local
laws.Mayor pro tern Cavecche asked for clarification of whether the zoning preemption is
applicable without a State license and whether the City can modifY the Municipal Code to require
stricter licensing requirements. She also noted that the State Assembly's vote on AB 3007 was
imminent and time was of the essence to convey the City's
comments.Mr. DeBerry stated that under the Health & Safety Code, sober living facilities not providing
care and supervision are not required to obtain a license. He added that under the Federal
Fair Employment and Housing Act, recovering addicts and alcoholics are considered disabled, and
the City is required in some cases to make reasonable accommodations for homes serving
these
individuals.Mayor pro tern Cavecche asked if the code enforcement and fire marshal staff were going out
at night when violations were more notable and whether there existed another angle to explore
to address the
problems.Mr. DeBerry noted that staff had discussed that and they would be going out at times people
would be
home.Mayor Murphy indicated that the status report is a slice in time, adding that there are
further avenues to pursue which is being
done.Page

Speakers:
Bettye Cantwell, Hart Street, asked for the definition ofR-1 and
R-2.Jon Stearman, spoke on opening a sober
living facility.Councilmember Smith suggested pressure be placed on the property owners who
are making money renting illegally to many families, including a stiff penalty for those who
violate the ordinance-as well as stronger penalties
for repeat violations.City Attorney, David DeBerry indicated that violations are misdemeanors with a fine of $
1,000 or 6 months in jail. He added that the courts do not give code enforcement
matters much priority,adding that they want to be assured that the City has exhausted all their efforts
to correct the problem in order for them to hear the case. He reviewed several different
scenarios of living conditions, noting it is difficult to obtain evidence to determine
actual living arrangements.Councilmember Dumitru asked how many sober living facilities existed in the City
and how many unlicensed homes existed; what the crime rates are in the neighborhoods
where these facilities exist; and whether probationers were living in
the unlicensed facilities.Mr. DeBerry reported that 17 licensed sober living facilities exist in Orange.
He indicated that there is no current record of the number of unlicensed facilities, but the City is
looking to address the unlicensed homes. He indicated that more and more addicts are being
diverted to group homes for treatment rather than to incarceration. He clarified the
provisions regarding probation and living in a
sober living facility.Mayor pro tern Cavecche pointed out that under state law, there is no way the
City can change the occupant capacity in a house. She also asked that all group homes be
mapped to determine the distance from
other group homes.Mr. DeBerry indicated that the courts have shot down requests to limit the numberofpeopleperlease. He also indicated that the City's GIS system is up-to-date
on mapping the licensed facilities,but work is still in progress
to enter the un-licensed homes.City Manager, John Sibley stated that the City's GIS system is
being updated with all statistics on group homes which then feeds into the Coplink System enabling the
City to keep track of crime statistics. He added that the Police Department is
aggressive
in monitoring the whereabouts of parolees.In response to questions from Councilmember
Ambriz, Mr. DeBerry responded that currently,unlicensed sober living facilities are not required to haveaCitybusinesslicense. Mr. DeBerry clarified that the business license addresses the collecting of ataxcomparedtotheStategrouphomelicensewhich

the City Manager - Renewed Measure M Transportation Investment Plan.OC1300.D.l) TAPE 1190
SUMMARY: In 1990, Orange County
voters approved Measure M, a half-cent local transportation sales tax to
be collected for 20 years. The revenue generated from Measure M has been used to fund
critical freeway, road and transit projects in Orange County. However, this transportation sales tax is
set to expire in 2011.Discussion - City Manager, John
Sibley provided a summary of projects eligible for funding by the extension of the Measure
M tax.Orange County Transit Authority (OCTA)
Director and Chairman of the Orange County Board of Supervisors, Bill Campbell gave
a power point presentation providing the history of Measure M; reviewed completed projects and
those underway. He stated that over the past 15 years,Orange has received $46.2
million in Measure M Funds. He added that Measure M will expire in 2011 unless extended and
listed the proposed projects that future funds would be used for. He added that a two-thirds
vote is required for its extension.Councilmember Ambriz, referring to
grant opportunities for funding, asked if OCTA would be encouraging partnerships with cities,
counties, state, courts, and universities. He further asked how soon funds would
be available.Supervisor Campbell responded that
the future funds will be regional in helping all the citizens of the county and
that the future plans would be shelf-ready-allowing for a quick start on the projects.Page

Mayor pro tern Cavecche asked for clarification on the difference between Measure M funds and
the Governor's proposed state infrastructure bonds.
Supervisor Campbell explained that of the proposed $19 billion bonds, only 5% or $460 million
would come to Orange County-in spite of the fact that the County has 10% of the state'
s population. He further stated that many State bonds require matching funds; adding
that Measure M funds are spent and controlled
locally.Councilmember Dumitru stated that Orange ranked No. 5 in funding out of all the cities
in Orange
County.Mayor Murphy stated that although nobody likes taxes, Measure M, with its proven track
record,benefits the local
area.RESOLUTION NO.
