These aircraft serve long and medium haul market more than 1,000 miles. These aircraft requires more fuel to reach its destination and as a result, requires greater thrust on departure. The combination of heavy fuel loads and a greater thrust correlate to the higher noise levels. Class E: Aircraft which operate at gross takeoff weight not greater than 140,000 pounds for dual main landing gear configurations and 300,000 pounds for aircraft for dual tandem landing gear configurations. These aircraft serve short haul markets less than 1,000 miles and carry less fuel and are, as a result, lighter and quieter. In the years of 2012, 2013 and 2014 there has been no noise violations of any commercial airline using any of its aircraft type under Class A that has exceeded any quarterly average noise limits.

It lists the number of one-way passenger’s trips per day, the nonstop distance, the average market fare, and identifies the airlines with the largest market share and the lowest average fare;; market share and average fares are provided for both airlines. Average fares are average prices paid by all fare paying passengers. They therefore cover first class fares paid to carriers offering such service, but they do not cover free tickets such as those awarded by carriers offering frequent flyer programs. The lowest fare carrier is the carrier with the lowest average fare that has at least 10 percent share of the traffic in the market, except for markets where only a single carrier has a 10 percent of greater share in such markets the carrier with the lowest average fare is identified even if its market share is less than 10 percent. In some markets the market average fare will be lower than the fare for its lowest fare carrier because several carriers that do not individually account for a 10 percent share can collectively account for a significant share. Often they charge lower average fares than individual carriers with greater market participation.54 Market and Carrier One Way Fare Information Per Day Airport Distance Passengers Overall Largest

What it means to say a pension has unfunded liabilities Pensions and their purpose A pension is a contract for a fixed sum to be paid regularly to a person, typically following retirement from service. There are many different types of pensions, including defined benefit plans, defined contribution plans, as well as several others. A retirement plan is an arrangement to provide people with an income during retirement after they are no longer earning a steady income from employment. Often retirement plans require both the employer and employee to contribute money to a fund during their employment in order to receive defined benefits upon retirement. A recipient of a retirement pension is known as a pensioner or retiree. Retirement pensions are typically in the form of a guaranteed life annuity, thus insuring against the “risk of longevity” (i.e., outliving one’s savings). 2013-2014 Orange County Grand Jury ORANGE COUNTY CITY PENSION LIABILTIES BUDGET TRANSPARENCY CRITICALLY NEEDED Two major types of pension plans Retirement plans are classified as defined benefit or defined contribution according to how the benefits are determined and by their associated methods of funding. A defined benefit plan guarantees a certain payout at retirement, according to a fixed formula which usually depends on the member's salary and the number of years' of membership in the plan. A defined contribution plan will provide a payout at retirement that is dependent upon the amount of money contributed and the performance of the investment vehicles utilized. Defined benefit plans A defined benefit (DB) plan is a plan in which an employee’s benefit on retirement is determined by a set formula, rather than depending on investment returns on that employee’s savings. Traditionally, retirement plans have been administered by institutions which exist specifically for that purpose. A typical form of defined benefit plan is the final salary plan, under which the pension paid is equal to the number of years worked, multiplied by a percentage of the member's salary at retirement. Normally a minimum number of years worked and/or a minimum retirement age are specified. The employer’s cost of a defined benefit plan is not easily predicted since it depends so much on the plan’s ability to achieve the predicted rate of return on investment of the plan’s assets as they are accrued. Since the pension benefit to the employee is defined, any shortfall in investment returns or longer than actuarially predicted employee life span post retirement for example must be made up by the employer. The employer assumes all the risk in providing the defined benefit. Defined contribution plans In a defined contribution plan, contributions are paid into an individual account for each member. The contributions are invested, for example in the stock market, and the returns on the investment (which may be positive or negative) credited to the individual's account. On retirement, the member's account is used to provide retirement benefits, sometimes through the purchase of an annuity which then provides a regular income. Defined contribution plans have become widespread all over the world in recent years, and are now the dominant form of plan in the private sector in many countries. In a defined contribution plan, investment risk and investment rewards are assumed by each individual/employee/retiree and not by the sponsor/employer, and these risks may be substantial. In addition, participants do not necessarily purchase annuities with their savings upon retirement, and bear the risk of outliving their assets. Despite the fact that the participant in a defined contribution plan typically has control over investment decisions, the plan sponsor retains a significant degree of fiduciary responsibility over investment of plan assets, including the selection of investment options and administrative providers. 2013-2014 Orange County Grand Jury ORANGE COUNTY CITY PENSION LIABILTIES BUDGET TRANSPARENCY CRITICALLY NEEDED Both the CalPERS and OCERS plans used by OC cities are defined benefit plans. How pension benefits are specified Pension benefits are specified as a percentage of highest annual average compensation times the number of years of service at the age of retirement. For example, “3% at 50”, a benefit held by many city public safety employees, means that such an employee can retire at age 50 and receive 3% of his/her highest salary times the number of years of service. For example, a police officer hired at age 25 and retiring at age 50 with his/her highest annual salary at $160,000 will receive an annual pension of $120,000 (3% times 25 years times $160,000). How pension benefits (actuarial liabilities) for retired members are computed The pension liability for a retired member is computed based on his/her current pension payment, current age, and predictions of cost of living increases, inflation, and mortality. How pension (actuarial liabilities) for active members are computed The pension liability of an active member is computed based on his/her current salary, age, and predictions of the age at which the member will retire, salary increases occurring until retirement, inflation, and mortality. Other factors taken into consideration are the probabilities the member will become disabled or will terminate his/her service earlier than anticipated. Actuarial Accrued Liability The present value of the sum of active and retired members’ pension benefits is the actuarial accrued liability Actuarial Value of Assets The value of pension plan investments and other property used by an actuary for the purpose of an actuarial valuation is the actuarial value of assets (sometimes referred to as valuation assets). Actuaries often select an asset valuation method that smoothes the effects of short-term volatility in the market value of assets. What it means to say a pension has unfunded liabilities The difference between the actuarial accrued liability and the actuarial value of assets accumulated to finance a public pension is its unfunded liability. 2013-2014 Orange County Grand Jury DANA POINT HARBOR REVITALIZATION 15 YEARS OF PLANNING: WHAT HAS BEEN LEARNED?

CL1 Page 131Currently, success rates on reducing recidivism are not fully documented by the Probation Department. Relevant pieces of missing information are (1) what happens after a youth finishes probation;; and, (2) how many youths “graduate” to jails after reaching age eighteen. Juvenile recidivism is measured only against those juveniles who break probation and/or commit offenses while on probation. Records of their youthful offenses do not follow them to jail. Thus the ability to measure recidivism is very limited. The Probation Department has noted that recidivism rates can also be confounded by the fact that some youth are released from an institution to state prison, county jail or the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation – Division of Juvenile Justice. Those releases will not show recidivism within 180 days because they are still incarcerated elsewhere and therefore, do not have the opportunity to re-offend. There may also be older youth who are terminated from probation prior to the end of the 180-day evaluation period, and thus have less opportunity to re-offend within 180 days, where a younger probationer may be on probation for the entire 180-day period. Making recidivism comparisons across programs is very difficult since there are so many variables that may not be accounted for without strict experimental research, data collection and analysis. Since evidence-based planning is critical to allocating limited funding, the Grand Jury feels it is important to re-establish a research department to collect and analyze this data. During recent cutbacks at the Probation Department, the existing Research Department, which consisted of approximately 12 employees (5 were Juvenile researchers), was reduced to only 8 full-time employees (3 are Juvenile researchers), due to budget constraints. The Probation Department is handicapped by this reduction in staff since they are unable to determine the true cost impact of their programs and recidivism rates due to the lack of research personnel to collect and analyze data. 2013-2014 Orange County Grand Jury Page 26 Juvenile Offenders and Recidivism: Orange County Solutions

CL2 Page 293The Grand Jury concludes that the Orange County Department of Education, with its responsibility and resources should study and develop a feasibility proposal for Orange County school districts to consolidate. The study should examine the cost savings mechanisms for the districts as well as improving efficiency in operations. Unification should be considered within the existing boundaries of the high school districts. Pursuant to Education Code 35542(b), any district may request to be excluded from unification if that is the vote of that district’s electorate.

CL3 Page 338Orange County cities have large unfunded pension liabilities. They do appear to have sufficient resources to amortize these liabilities, but these liabilities are volatile and need to be clearly addressed in cities’ budgets in order to gain the confidence of their residents that this is actually the case. Such confidence can only be achieved by far greater transparency in their budgets.

CM4 Page 438Joplin Youth Center The Grand Jury determined that all four facilities had many similar needs. There was a need for a new gym, medical facilities, a longer commitment than the typical ninety days to take advantage of the numerous programs offered and aftercare programs. More efficient, up-graded video systems were also needed at all of the facilities. REASON FOR STUDY The Grand Jury is charged by the California Penal Code 919(b) to review all detention facilities in the county. Part II of the Annual Report on Jails focuses on four juvenile detention and treatment facilities in Orange County. This study is in conjunction with the Annual Report on Jails as mandated by the California Penal Code Section 919(b) requiring the Grand Jury to “…inquire into the condition and management of the public prisons within the county.” The 2013-2014 Grand Jury opted to include the Juvenile Detention Centers as an addendum to the jail report since Juvenile Detention lies within the purview of the Grand Jury as well. 2013-2014 Orange County Grand Jury Page 13 ANNUAL REPORT ON JAILS AND JUVENILE DETENTION FACILITIES BACKGROUND AND FACTS During 2013-2014, the Orange County Probation Department operated four juvenile detention centers. They are as follows:

John Wayne Airport is the only one that serves general aviation, commercial aviation and air cargo operations.4 4 History of Orange County Airport by Scott A. Thompson 2013-2014 Orange County Grand Jury Page 5 Maximizing the Benefits of John Wayne Airport to Better Serve Orange County History Eddie Martin opened Eddie Martin Airport in 1923 and started a flying school on Irvine Ranch property. In 1925 Orange County began buying up farm land south of Eddie Martin Airport from James Irvine as seen in Figure 1.5 The County of Orange bought 40 acres a year from 1925 through 1928 until it had a full quarter section, or 160 acres. When the land purchase was completed, Orange County began work on building an airport then located just east of the present airport. The Orange County Airport’s formal dedication was held on April 7, 1928. An Administration building, control tower, hangar and two runways were the first structures. These were the first paved runways in Orange County. Figure 1: Eddie Martin Airport Surrounded by Agriculture in 1935 Photograph: Land the County of Orange bought that would become Orange County Airport The new Orange County Airport was used regularly for a year, but with Eddie Martin’s Airport so close, and so well known, there just wasn’t much need for another airport and the project faltered. Eddie Martin Airport was located at the end of South Main Street. In 1936, the Board of Supervisors considered reactivating the original Orange County Airport. It soon became apparent that Eddie Martin’s Airport would have to close since the plans to extend South Main Street continued to move forward. 5 History of Orange County Airport by Scott A. Thompson 2013-2014 Orange County Grand Jury Page 6 Maximizing the Benefits of John Wayne Airport to Better Serve Orange County The Federal Aviation Administration gives this new airport called Orange County Airport the designator SNA for Santa Ana because it was the closest big city at the time. The new Orange County Airport opened for business on August 15, 1941. Subsequently, Eddie Martin moved into the new Orange County Airport as a tenant. Shortly after Pearl Harbor, the Army Air Corps took over the operation of the airport, which was renamed the Santa Ana Army Airbase. The Army extended the runways to 4,800 feet and built a number of barracks and buildings. The surrounding area was substantially agricultural during this period. After World War II, the Santa Ana Army Airbase was returned to Orange County with the stipulation that it remain open to all aviation uses. In 1952 Arizona based Bonanza Airlines (later to become Hughes Airwest) and Republic Airlines began the first regular passenger service using DC-3’s. Early destinations were Imperial County Airport (El Centro), Los Angeles, San Diego, Phoenix, and Yuma International Airport.6 In 1964, the airport was rebuilt with its present two parallel runway configuration. The first runway is 5,701 feet long by 150 feet wide and is oriented with a magnetic heading 190 degrees for Runway 19R and a magnetic heading of 10 degrees for Runway 01L. The second runway is 2,887 feet long by 75 feet wide and is oriented with a magnetic heading 190 degrees for Runway 19L and a magnetic heading of 10 degrees for Runway 01R. On June 20, 1979 on a motion from Orange County Board of Supervisor Thomas F. Riley, the Orange County Airport was renamed the John Wayne Airport. John Wayne Airport has three terminals, Terminal A, Terminal B and Terminal C. These three terminals together are named Thomas F. Riley Terminal after General and former Orange County Board Supervisor Thomas F. Riley. John Wayne Airport operated similarly as other commercial and general aviation airports with runway incursions as their number one concern. A runway incursion is an incident where an unauthorized aircraft, vehicle or person is on a runway. This adversely affects runway safety, as it creates the risk that an airplane taking off or landing will collide with the object. Terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001, triggered the implementation of federal regulations that have dramatically altered the way airports conduct business. The airport is now regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and by two county agencies:
-
CM8 Page 466Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) Revenues – Created by Congress in 1990, is intended to assist airports in funding major infrastructure development. The fee generates $4.50 per enplaned passenger for a defined collection period.
-
CM9 Page 466Other – These funds are from Caltrans for seismic retrofit projects and from John Wayne Airport Air Carriers for the hydrant fueling system.
-
CM10 Page 466Subordinate Debt – This short-term financing mechanism could supplement the County’s long term debt financing program, if needed. 13 John Wayne Airport Executives 2013-2014 Orange County Grand Jury Page 12 Maximizing the Benefits of John Wayne Airport to Better Serve Orange County Table 3 shows the John Wayne Airport Capital Improvement Program Budget.

John Wayne Airport has spent hundreds of millions of dollars on new construction. Terminals A and B were upgraded and renovated with seismic retrofits in 2011. The new Terminal C design along with more than 2,000 parking spaces meets California’s structural seismic standards for essential operations and was also completed in 2011. Parking structure C also incorporates seismic upgrades. The upper departure roadway support pillars were retrofitted in 2012.16 John Wayne Airport has installed a state-of-the-art Parking Access and Revenue Control System in all parking structures. This system features two options: a traditional paper ticket system and a new ticketless feature. With the new ticketless option a patron will be able to swipe a credit card to gain access to the parking structure. The same credit card must be used upon exit, eliminating the need to retain a paper parking ticket. The parking space and count system allows passengers to determine how many spaces are available on each level as they enter the parking facility. Sensors imbedded in airport roadways allow for the Parking Access and Revenue Control System to count vehicles entering and exiting facilities. Individual sensors located in The Americans with Disabilities Act and short-term (2- hour) spaces provide the exact count of the status of these spaces which are displayed on roadway signage. The space count system also informs passengers on the roadway if the lot is full. The Parking Access and Revenue Control System will be integrated with the airport website, allowing passengers to view parking availability online and via mobile devices John Wayne Airport completed its own Central Utility Plant in 2011. The Central Utility Plant supplies the Thomas F. Riley Terminal complex with power and chilled water for the air conditioning system. The facility houses four natural gas-fired internal combustion engines producing seven megawatts of electricity and two 550-ton absorption chillers, one 125-ton air cooled centrifugal chiller, three 750-ton centrifugal chillers and all ancillary mechanical support equipment. John Wayne Airport will purchase approximately 5% of its power from Southern California Edison Company (SCE).17 John Wayne Airport can only support limited air cargo service by Federal Express (FEDEX) and United Parcel Service (UPS) due to three issues:

It lists the number of one-way passenger’s trips per day, the nonstop distance, the average market fare, and identifies the airlines with the largest market share and the lowest average fare;; market share and average fares are provided for both airlines. Average fares are average prices paid by all fare paying passengers. They therefore cover first class fares paid to carriers offering such service, but they do not cover free tickets such as those awarded by carriers offering frequent flyer programs. The lowest fare carrier is the carrier with the lowest average fare that has at least 10 percent share of the traffic in the market, except for markets where only a single carrier has a 10 percent of greater share in such markets the carrier with the lowest average fare is identified even if its market share is less than 10 percent. In some markets the market average fare will be lower than the fare for its lowest fare carrier because several carriers that do not individually account for a 10 percent share can collectively account for a significant share. Often they charge lower average fares than individual carriers with greater market participation.54 Market and Carrier One Way Fare Information Per Day Airport Distance Passengers Overall Largest
