Summer is a great time for family fun and play! If you haven't already done so, I invite you to explore the many parks and recreational activities that Orange County has to offer!
Along with great beach weather, this summer has also marked the start of a project that will change the landscape of the First District. Construction is now underway to renovate Haster Basin in Garden Grove. The Haster Basin, Pump Station and Recreational Field Project is expected to be completed in 18 months and will include increased protection to the flood channel for home and business owners along the channel, a new pump station for increased water flow, a refurbished multi-use path, and recreational space that will include soccer fields, walk/bike pathway, picnic tables, and more.
I am very excited and look forward to the finished results, as this project has been a top priority of mine since coming to the County in 2007.
Another exciting event in the First District was the reinstallation of Sunday hours at the Westminster Library, which is a branch within the OC Public Library system. The Westminster Library had been closed on Sundays since July 3, 2011 due to the City of Westminster’s low property tax revenues and budget constraints. However, I asked County staff to look for ways to bring back the much needed Sunday hours for our children and families. With the increased attendance and high check-out rates, the County decided to resume the Library’s Sunday hours at no additional cost to the City of Westminster or its residents.
Please look through this newsletter edition as there are many other interesting updates and events in the First District and around Orange County, and continue to have a safe and fun summer!

County of Orange CEO Tom Mauk Retires
I’d like to take an opportunity to recognize and thank Tom Mauk for his incredible leadership and service to the County of Orange as our CEO. His legacy will endure after his retirement.
Tom Mauk is one of the longest serving CEO’s in Orange County history and has provided outstanding leadership during one of the most trying times. With Tom’s leadership during the recession, the County implemented the “glide down” effect, thereby cutting 5% across County departments and making incremental structural and budgetary adjustments on a yearly basis.
As a result, Orange County has avoided the Draconian cuts you see some other counties and cities having to make. The budget adopted by our Board this past June is not only balanced, but more importantly avoids cuts, layoffs and consumption of County reserves. There was also no need to make the aforementioned annual 5% cuts this year. Given the economic climate, this type of leadership is no small task to say the least.
In addition, Mr. Mauk has overseen many of the County’s accomplishments. A few include:
- negotiations with labor organizations for new health plans, which achieved a savings of about $3.4 million in 2008
- a five year IT strategic plan and a three year tactical plan that ensured that all IT initiatives were aligned with the County’s overall goals
- the restructuring of Retirement Medical and Pensions Programs to achieve a savings of $992 million to the County’s unfunded liability
- the smooth transition to a new Sheriff after Sheriff Corona was indicted
- the completion of the redistricting process in a fair and lawful manner that avoided litigation and enhanced the communities of interest in the First District
In addition to the major accomplishments Countywide, the leadership and support from Mr. Mauk, his office and other county agencies and staff have greatly contributed to the success of many of the projects and events that I have championed in the First District. A few of the projects include: the opening of the County Community Service Center, where over 20,000 people are served annually; the Roger Stanton Heroes Memorial; the Midway City Street and Storm Drain Improvement Project; the Santa Ana River Main Stem Project; the Central Garden Grove Overlay Project; the Haster Basin, Pump Station and Recreational Field Project; as well as community events in the First District such as the Senior Summit and the Health Care Expo.
I want to congratulate Mr. Mauk on his retirement and thank him for his years of dedication and commitment to serving the people of Orange County including the First District. I wish him the best of luck in this new chapter of his life!
Wild Rivers to Re-Open in 2014
The Board of Supervisors recently approved a 25-year lease for the development and operation of the Wild Rivers waterpark. As a result, Wild Rivers is scheduled to re-open in 2014 on a portion of the County’s El Toro 100 Acre parcel. The lease apportions 17-acres for Wild Rivers to construct the water park. This agreement will help to stimulate the local economy by supplying many summer and seasonal jobs, and will ensure a constant revenue stream into the County of Orange that can then be used for future projects. More importantly, it will bring back this great attraction for so many children and families from Orange County to enjoy once again.
Housing and Community Development Commission Appointments
I want to congratulate several individuals who were recently appointed or reappointed to the Housing and Community Development Commission by the Board of Supervisors. The purpose of this commission is to advise the Orange County Housing Authority board and the Orange County Housing and Community Development Department on issues pertaining to housing-related needs of low to moderately low-income families residing in the unincorporated areas of Orange County and in the cities participating in the County housing programs. The commission also provides recommendations on funding priorities for rental assistance, new housing, residential rehabilitation, public works improvements, and other housing supportive services.
The Board of Supervisors appointed Phan Vu of Westminster and Jan Horton of Yorba Linda, and reappointed Ron Garcia of Brea, Helen Smith-Gardner of Mission Viejo and Kathryn McCullough of Lake Forest. Congratulations to all appointees.
New Appointment to the Assessment Appeals Board
I recently appointed Fountain Valley resident Clarence Alvey, Jr. to the Assessment Appeals Board. This is one of five appointments to that Board, which hears property value disputes. Members must be an attorney, CPA, Public Accountant, Real Estate Broker or an Appraiser who has been licensed by the State of California for a period of at least 5 years. Mr. Alvey previously served on the Board, and his experience will be beneficial as he assumes this important role again. Congratulations Mr. Alvey!
Coroner Courses Continue at Rancho Santiago Community College District
A five-year agreement between the County and Rancho Santiago Community College District was recently approved by the Board of Supervisors for the Sheriff-Coroner’s Department to provide various Coroner courses to students enrolled in Rancho Santiago Community College District’s Criminal Justice Department. This agreement continues the Coroner coursework that has been in place since 2002 at Rancho Santiago Community College District. Additionally, the County will receive up to $25,000 per year from the College District for this training to offset the costs for providing these courses.
Use Your Credit Card to Pay for Parking in Santa Ana
The Board of Supervisors authorized a contract renewal, which allows Santa Ana Civic Center visitors to pay for parking using a credit card. This creates greater ease for patrons while providing cost-savings to the County since less cashiers are needed.
Tustin Family Center to Provide Early Childhood Services
The Board of Supervisors has approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to continue educational, developmental, and health services at the Tustin Family Campus (TFC). TFC is a multi-treatment residential facility that provides comprehensive early childhood services to children. In the past, the TFC has successfully developed its clients’ emotional, social, cognitive and physical potential both in the home and in the classroom.
Working with the Social Services Agency, Continuing Development, Inc. will provide quality services to many at-risk children, from birth through five years of age, and offer support to their families. The non-financial MOU procures these early childhood education services at no cost to the County with funding from CalWORKS and the California Department of Education Child Care and Development.
District Attorney’s Office Receives Donation for Gang Reduction Program
The Orange County Board of Supervisors approved acceptance of a donation for the Orange County Gang Reduction and Intervention Partnership (OC GRIP). OC GRIP is a law enforcement partnership formed by the District Attorney that supports at-risk youth and focuses on decreasing gang activity. The donation was made by Angels’ Outfielder Torii Hunter for an amount of $50,000. Thank you Torii for your support of our youth!
Midway City Street and Storm Drain Improvement Project
The Board of Supervisors recently approved the reallocation of $358,467 in Proposition 1B funds for Phase III of the Midway City Street & Storm Drain Improvement Project. This phase specifically focuses on the construction of the storm drain system that connects the recently completed drainage improvements from Phases I and II of the project, which were completed in June and also included significant street rehabilitation.

I-405 Improvement Project
The I-405 freeway is currently one of the most congested freeways in Southern California. Because of this, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and OCTA are collaboratively working to study and discuss the possibility of widening the freeway between State Route 73 and the 605 interchange.
Included in this are four options:
- Making no changes to the freeway
- Alternative 1 (adding one general purpose lane in each direction)
- Alternative 2 (adding two general purpose lanes in each direction)
- Alternative 3 (adding one general purpose lane in each direction, adding one toll/3+ person carpool lane in each direction and changing the existing carpool lane to the same format).
OCTA has engaged in extensive community outreach efforts in the form of public town hall meetings and information sessions, as well as meetings with cities and their representatives. Also included in the outreach process was a mechanism for the public to provide written comments regarding the project and their views on the proposed options. This public comment period has ended on July 17, 2012 with all collected feedback set to be included in the final environmental impact document.
My staff and I have been working closely with the City of Westminster to mitigate the potential impacts to the areas their City as a result of construction. After several meetings with my office, OCTA staff, Mayor Margie Rice, and City Staff, many of Westminster’s concerns have been addressed. I look forward to continuing to work with the City of Westminster and OCTA to make sure that all issues addressed will be a part of the implementation plan.
The OCTA Board of Directors will be discussing the project alternatives and feedback from constituents residing in the affected corridor on August 13, 2012. The Board will select their locally preferred option on September 24, 2012. Following that, Caltrans will select the final preferred option this fall. For more information on the project, visit www.octa.net.
Pacific Electric Right-of-Way Update
Over the past several years OCTA, LA Metro, the Southern California Council of Governments (SCAG) and local municipalities have been collaboratively working together to discuss potential alternative uses for the Pacific Electric Right-of-Way (PEROW). This abandoned rail line stretching from Santa Ana to Paramount in LA County has sat vacant for several decades.
A discussion had been called to review alternative uses including the development of a fixed-guideway system along the corridor. However, many cities, especially in Orange County, are not supportive of the development as this corridor runs against the grid and in many areas is very close to homes and businesses. Specifically, a significant portion of the PEROW cuts through Garden Grove and Santa Ana in the First District. These homes and businesses would be drastically affected by noise and unsightly views. Additionally, transportation funding is not readily available as it has been focused on other projects.
Because of this, I, along with many other elected officials have been opposed to the fixed-guideway system, as well as the development of a Light Rail system or the High-Speed Magnetic Levitation Train System (Maglev). Even with my outspoken opposition to these systems during Alternative Analysis Steering Committee meetings, OCTA meetings and through press releases, the Steering Committee, without the approval of Orange County representatives, decided to recommend the Light Rail Transit and Maglev Systems.
However, through my unwavering objections, the OCTA Board of Directors took an official stance in opposition to the recommendations of the Steering Committee and voted to re-establish protection along the Orange County portion of the corridor. This allows for the Right-of-Way to remain undeveloped and prevents any impacts to the corridor from the creation of a fixed-guideway system.
Intelligent Transit Management System
The Board of Directors directed OCTA staff in 2010, to move forward with upgrading the existing Radio Communications Systems onboard buses and at bus-bases. The new system, which will enhance outdated dispatching and automatic vehicle location systems, is currently in the process of being implemented and is scheduled to be complete in November 2012.
The system will be beneficial as it allows for increased safety to bus passengers through better radio coverage in buses and around the County, as well as having an automatic notification component. When buses have mechanical issues staff will be notified and can work to avert an accident preventing passengers from being harmed.

OCSD Approves the FY 2012-13 and FY 2013-2014 Budgets
The Orange County Sanitation District recently approved its budgets for the next two fiscal years. The FY 2012-13 budget stands at $377.8 million, while the FY 2013-14 is $430 million. The increase in the 2013-14 budget is primarily due to the timing of the construction schedules on the implementation of OCSD’s 10-year $2.0 billion Capital Improvement Project. Overall, these budgets reflect OCSD’s ongoing efforts to streamline operations and continue to provide the same quality of services to the residents of Orange County.
New Boat Captain
The Orange County Sanitation District has hired Katherine Peet as its new Boat Captain. The OCSD Boat Captain is primarily responsible for commanding and navigating OCSD’s twin-engine ocean vessel for field sampling purposes for the ocean monitoring program, which enables OCSD to meet standards and remain in compliance with national regulations governing water pollution.
Ms. Peet has a Master’s degree in Environmental Management and is in the process of completing a Master’s degree in Marine Affairs. She has worked with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for over nine years; serves as active duty member of the U.S. Coast Guard; and continues to work as a Lieutenant Junior Grade in the Coast Guard reserves. Congratulations to Katherine Peet on becoming OCSD’s new Boat Captain!
