Councilman Keckley questioned waterway and circulation changes since General Plan approved. Mr. Zelver, Planning Consultant, stated General Plan in constant review due to further engineering studies and waterway changes made for better circulation and changed to a loop plan; that inland waterway preferred due to tidal flows of some 81. He stated there was a shortage of this kind of con- trolled waterways, which now made possible urban development proposed, with parks down to water level, and further detailed reasons for this change which had greatly improved the development proposed. Questions presented from audience and answered as follows: Dr. Paul Young, 1703 Hopkins, questioned law suit filed by Leslie Properties, against State indicating they did not own all the land proposed in the plans, and asked whether City intended to protest interests of citizens. City Attorney advised he was not familiar with this case but understood it was —� an involvement of tidal waterways which City had previously recognized as being I held by State and that City had acquired a lease from State for dredging work of water ways adjacent to marine world and also applying for a further lease. He referred to agreements in which Leslie Properties had agreed to convey rights to City for dredging and if any dispute, City would relinquish to State, as tide- lands were basic waterways and City would preserve them as such. City Attorney further advised City was not a party to this suit, and that the State of Califor- nia represented people, with the Attorney General handling the case.
