Consideration of Non-Profit Contribution Grant Requests for Fiscal Years 2009-10 and
2010-11:
The Recreation and Community Services Director thanked staff members Dena
Diggins, Jeff Draper, and Adrianna Hyta for their assistance and diligence with the grant
request process. She stated that the Non-Profit Contribution Grant Requests for Fiscal
Years 2009-10 and 2010-11 will be discussed in two City Council workshop sessions.
The Recreation and Community Services Director stated that the Non-Profit
Contribution Grant Request Policy was updated in 2008 and put it on a two-year cycle
at that time. There is an allotment and maximum use for facility use rental fee waivers,
with the highest priority given to resident groups whose membership reflects at least a
50% Cypress residency. The Non-Profit Grant Request Application Form submittal
deadline was January 23, 2009 at 5:00 p.m.
The Recreation and Community Services Director commented that the Cypress
Chamber of Commerce is the only group that had received a grant request in the past
but did not submit an application for the upcoming two fiscal years.
The Recreation and Community Services Director informed of the process for
determining in-direct costs associated with the groups' grant requests, including staff
support and equipment rentals. She stated that for this two year period, direct funding
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 9, 2009
requests total $65,500 and in-direct funding requests total $1,025,000, which is 12.3%
of the Recreation and Park District's total annual budget.
Mayor Pro Tem Narain asked for clarification on the calculation of in-direct funding for
non-profit groups that have received a grant request versus fee based groups.
The Recreation and Community Services Director provided information on loss of
revenue from facility and athletic field fee waivers and usage.
Council Member Luebben asked about the grant funding requests' impact to the
Recreation and Park District's budget and the programming benefits the non-profit
groups offer to the community and the comparison to other cities.
The Recreation and Community Services Director responded that there are only a few
cities that offer direct funding support to non-profit groups and that there is a community
value from the non-profit groups' events/activities.
The Recreation and Community Services Director stated that the non-profit contribution
grant policy gives priority to groups with 50%+ of members living in Cypress and that
the composition of the organization needs to be reviewed to determine whether the
group has open membership versus selective membership.
The Recreation and Community Services Director reviewed the recommended grant
requests for groups A and B for Fiscal Year 2009-2010.
Mayor Bailey asked about grant funding for the tenant at the former Acacia Adult Day
Services site.
The Recreation and Community Services Director stated that, due to residency
requirements, direct funding for Acacia Adult Day Services for Fiscal Year 2009-2010
has been reduced by $1,000, and reduced to zero for Fiscal Year 2010-2011.
Mayor Pro Tem Narain asked about the criteria in the City's policy, whereas,
organization's by-laws shall not call for the office of a Commissioner or City Council
Member to be represented on the group's Board of Directors or general membership.
The City Attorney responded that the criteria does not prohibit the City Council from
being a member, but it does prohibit the organization from requiring a City Council
Member to be a commissioner or on the board of directors.
The Recreation and Community Services Director stated that in the past the Friends of
Cypress Recreation & Parks, Inc. required that a member of the City Council serve on
their board.
Council Member Seymore stated that he did not vote during his service on the Cypress
Community Festival Association Board while serving as a City Council Member.
Mayor Bailey asked about the Friends of Cypress Recreation & Parks, Inc. grant
request of $1,680 for snack bar and storage.
The Recreation and Community Services Director replied that the $1,680 snack bar and
storage request is for the storage of supplies for the group's annual Chili Cookoff.
Council Member Luebben stated that the mission of the non-profit groups should be
reevaluated.
Mayor Bailey concurred with Council Member Luebben further expressing concern with
the increase of some of the groups' proceeds in relation to their community sponsorship
and how effectively they reallocate funds back to the community.
The Recreation and Community Services Director discussed recommended non-profit
grant requests for Group B which represents the sports groups and suggested that the
groups be charged a nominal monetary incentive for field use.

~~o
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 9, 2009
Mayor Bailey commented that he has a difficult time agreeing to staff's recommendation
of charging the sports groups for field use.
The Recreation and Community Services Director suggested that the City Council allow
staff an opportunity to work with the sports groups in determining a method for their
actual field use.
Council Member Luebben stated that he does agree to placing a value on field usage
so that it more closely matches the sports group's actual field use.
Council Member Mills stated that he concurs with the Recreation and Community
Services Director.
The Recreation and Community Services Director stated staff is recommending denial
of Cypress Federal Little League and Cypress Pony/Colt Baseball's requests for waiver
of field usage with lights.
The Recreation and Community Services Director commented that incomplete
applications were received from Cypress Futbol Club and Cypress Pop Warner.
However, their requests have been provided to the City Council with a notation of what
information their applications were lacking.
Council Member Seymore stated that the non-profit groups have had 14 weeks to
complete the application process and incomplete applications should not be given
consideration.
Council Member Luebben stated that he is concerned with Cypress Pop Warner's
ability to meet the residency requirements. He requested further information on the
funding for the Cypress Children's Advocacy Council.
It was consensus of the City Council to disallow funding consideration for both Cypress
Pop Warner and Cypress Futbol Club due to the incompleteness of their grant request
applications. Furthermore, staff is to report back to the City Council on the funding for
Friends of Cypress Recreation & Parks, Inc.
Moody Street Beautification, Public Works Project No. 2008-04:
The City Manager stated that the City Council is being presented with three options for
the Moody Street beautification.
The Public Works Director stated that the project is approximately 1.5 miles with 72,000
square feet of landscaping. The project is funded with $500,000 in Federal Funds,
$792,700 in Proposition 16 (I) Funds, and $1,107,300 from Gas Tax, Proposition 1B
(II), Proposition 42, and Measure M, for a total project budget of $2,400,000.
The Public Works Director displayed three landscape concepts with an overall view of
suggested planting and shrubbery, taking into consideration traffic visibility and water
conservation.
The Senior Civil Engineer informed of the distance of tree and shrubbery placement,
along with a brief description of the trees to be planted. He stated that the trees will be
trimmed as not to interfere with traffic visibility.
Council Member Seymore asked about the Interior Live Oak tree causing sight distant
problems due to its low foliage.
Council Member Mills asked about the height of the trees lowest limb.
Carl Moritz, City Forester, responded that the trees lowest limb normally would be 13'/2'-
14' over a highway and over a curb can be 8'-10'.
Mayor Pro Tem Narain asked if maintenance costs will be increased in order to provide
for the trimming of these trees.

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 9, 2009
Mr. Moritz responded that these types of trees do not require a lot of maintenance once
major limbs are taken off.
The Senior Civil Engineer described the various ground coverings including agaves,
aloes, fountain grass, and Mexican Bush Sage.
Mayor Pro Tem Narain asked about the flowering of the aloes.
Mr. Jim Kuhlken, Landscape Designer, Rick Engineering, Inc., stated that the aloes
flower for a long period of time once per year.
The Public Works Director stated that some of the hardscape improvements will tie in
with Lincoln Avenue.
The Public Works Director informed of public notification venues that will be used to
apprise the public of the project.
Council Member Seymore asked if the amount of trees and shrubbery would be
distracting to drivers.
Council Member Luebben commented on the King palm trees planted along Valley
View Street and how it has changed the original look and feel of the City.
The City Manager stated that Live Oaks were the indigenous plant of the City.
Mayor Bailey asked why grass is not part of the beautification project and how the
project may incorporate more greenery.
The Public Works Director responded that grass is not water conservation wise, but the
agave can be toned down.

Regarding Item No. 4: DESIGN REVIEW COMMITTEE PERMIT NO. 2009-01, A
REQUEST BY THE ANAHEIM UNION HIGH SCHOOL DISTRICT TO REPLACE AN
EXISTING POLE SIGN WITH A NEW MONUMENT SIGN FOR THE OXFORD
ACADEMY SCHOOL SITE LOCATED AT 5172 ORANGE AVENUE IN THE PS
PUBLIC AND SEMI-PUBLIC ZONE, Council Member Mills expressed concerns with the
Conditions of Approval, given the current economic state and constraints with school
budgets. In regard to Condition #6, he suggested that the color red be added to the
text colors listed and verbiage that would allow the City to display information related to
City sponsored or non-profit events. He suggested that Subsection D be deleted, and
that the board hours of 6:30 a.m., seven days per week, be reflected. He also
recommended that the word "moving" be deleted.
Council Member Seymore asked about the red coloring on the sign and the hours of
operation
The Director of Community Development stated that the red coloring was not included
in the Conditions of Approval due to neighborhood concerns.
Council Member Seymore stated that the text flashing/moving could be misconstrued
as emergency lights.
The Director of Community Development commented that the hours of operation for the
marquee sign are relative to the school hours based on the Code provisions, and the
restrictions on movement and animation is in direct compliance with the City Code.
Council Member Seymore commented that he was contacted by a City resident, as well
as the Assistant Principal of Oxford Academy, and stated that the school year condition
should be defined including registration and post-school year activities.
Council Member Luebben stated that his concern is that the sign was originally installed
without review by the City. He stated that any additional costs related to the sign were
incurred by Oxford Academy, and that he does not view the sign as something that the
City needs joint use of. He stated that he is comfortable with the Conditions of
Approval prepared by staff, not with the suggested revisions made by Council Member
Mills.
Council Member Narain stated that he agrees with the expanded use of the marquee by
the City for community events.
Council Member Mills stated that he has not observed the text signage to be flashing.
The text messages fade in and out. There have not been any complaints from
surrounding neighbors about the sign and the orientation of the sign is a 45 degree
angle, only visible by one or two homes within the area.
Council Member Seymore clarified that verbiage addressing flashing text should be
used for possible future signage conditions.
It was moved by Council Member Mills and seconded by Mayor Bailey, that the City
Council adopt the Resolution by title only, approving Design Review Committee Permit
No. 2009-01, subject to the conditions in Exhibit "A" of the Resolution, as amended.
A substitute motion was made by Mayor Bailey and seconded by Council Member
Luebben, that the City Council adopt the Resolution by title only, approving Design
Review Committee Permit No. 2009-01 with Condition #6 amended to reflect the hours
of operation as 6:30 a.m. - 10:00 p.m., verbiage allowing for the display of information
for City sponsored or non-profit events, the deletion of the second sentence in
Subsection C, and Subsection D to be eliminated.
A motion to amend the substitute motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Narain and
seconded by Council Member Mills, that the time frame be 6:30 a.m. - 10:00 p.m.,
seven days per week, deleting the words "Monday through Friday."
