PIPELINE FROM CHINO HILLS PARKWAY TO, UH, GLEN RIDGE IS
[00:15:01]
RAPIDLY BECOMING A DRAG STRIP.IT'S, IT DOESN'T MATTER ANYMORE.
AND 10 YEARS AGO, I GUESS WE, IT'S BEEN ABOUT 10 YEARS NOW, WE HAD A STOP SIGN PUT THERE CUZ SOMEBODY LOST THEIR LIFE AS A RESULT OF SPEED, EXCESSIVE SPEED THERE.
AND THAT GREATLY HELPED, UH, REDUCE THE SPEED.
BUT LATELY, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S BECAUSE OF ALL THE CONSTRUCTION AND ALL OF THE INCREASE IN THE PO IN THE, IN THE, IN THE, UH, RESIDENTS IN THAT PART OF, YOU KNOW, TOWN.
I, I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S BECAUSE OF THAT, THAT THEY'RE INCREASE IN SPEED, BUT IT HAS REALLY GOTTEN BAD.
AND, UH, I DON'T EVEN LIKE TO WALK DOWN THAT STREET ANYMORE, UH, BECAUSE OF IT.
IT'S, AND THEY'RE MODIFIED CARS TOO.
THEY'RE NOT, THEY'RE NOT JUST, UH, YOU KNOW, TEENAGERS OUT, YOU KNOW, JOY RIDING OR WHATEVER.
THESE ARE, THESE ARE, SOME OF THESE CARS ARE EXOTIC CARS.
THEY'RE DOING, UH, GOING REALLY FAST GOING THROUGH THE GEARS.
I'M A CAR GUY, UH, AND I CAN APPRECIATE THESE CARS, BUT THEY'RE JUST, IT'S GETTING OUTTA HAND AND, AND I, I APPRECIATE THIS.
THE, THE POLICE, UH, AND I, AND I KNOW THAT THEY DO THEIR JOB.
I SEE THEM STOP THERE ALL THE TIME.
UM, AND THEY'LL BE THERE MAYBE A MINUTE, TWO MINUTES, AND THEY'VE ALREADY GOT SOMEBODY RUNNING THE STOP SIGN.
SO THEY'RE DOING THEIR JOB AND I REALLY APPRECIATE THEM.
SO THERE NEEDS TO BE A SPEED SURVEY OR SOMETHING DONE ON THAT STRETCHER ROAD, UH, AT LEAST TO SEE WHAT'S GOING ON, UH, AS TO WHY MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING WE CAN DO PASSIVELY SPEED BUMPS OR WHATEVER.
THAT'S ALL I WANTED TO TALK ABOUT.
JUST SO, SO, YOU KNOW, REAL FAST, WE CAN'T REALLY TALK TO YOU DIRECTLY CUZ OF THE BROWN ACT.
CITY MANAGER, CAN YOU GIVE HIM HIS CARD OR YOUR CARD? SO IN THE FUTURE, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, ASK HIM.
AND THEN ALSO BEHIND YOU AS THE POLICE CHIEF, SO HE'S LISTENING TO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
I JUST WANTED TO GO ON PUBLIC RECORD, WENDY SAYING IT.
SO, YOU KNOW, THANK YOU FOR YOUR CALLING, SIR.
OKAY, OUR NEXT SPEAKER IS JULIA CABRERA.
UM, I'M HERE WITH THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE HERE TO JUST GIVE SOME, UH, NOTABLE UPDATES.
UM, THIS SATURDAY WE HAD OUR BUSINESS EXPO.
SO WE HAD AROUND 70 BUSINESSES COME AND JOIN US, UM, AT THE SHOPS AND INTERACT WITH THE PUBLIC PEOPLE.
GOT TO KNOW THE BUSINESSES PERSONALLY, UM, AND, YOU KNOW, KIND OF GET SOME INFO FROM THEM.
AT THE SAME TIME, WE WERE ALSO RUNNING A STUDENT WORKSHOP AT OUR SATELLITE OFFICE IN TAILORED SPACE, UH, HERE AT THE SHOPS ALSO, WHICH WAS ALSO A SOLD OUT.
THEY DIDN'T PAY FOR IT, BUT IT WAS A FULL ROSTER OF STUDENTS UP THERE LEARNING ABOUT BUSINESS MARGINS.
UM, WHICH IS VERY INTERESTING.
WE HAD KIDS AGES FROM SIX TO 13, UM, AND BOTH WERE VERY SUCCESSFUL.
SO I JUST WANTED TO SHARE THAT.
UM, I ALSO WANNA SHARE THAT OUR FIRST DATE FOR OUR FIRST EVER CHINO VALLEY LEADERSHIP COLLABORATIVE IS COMING UP ON NOVEMBER 4TH.
UM, I WANNA ANNOUNCE THAT WE HAVE, UH, A FULL LIST OF FOLKS JOINING US.
SO WE HAVE 20 PARTICIPANTS, UM, AND WE'RE, I'M ALSO, WE'RE ALSO LEAVING IT OPEN FOR, UH, CHINO HILLS CITY STAFF.
UM, MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL AS WELL, OF COURSE, ARE ALWAYS WELCOME TO JOIN AND APPLY.
IT'S OUR PILOT PROGRAM, SO, UM, I KNOW MYSELF AND OUR BUSINESSES WOULD LOVE YOUR REPRESENTATION THERE AS PART OF OUR COLLABORATIVE.
UM, AND THEN AS FOR OUR PUBLIC EVENTS COMING UP, WE HAVE THE CHINO HILLS KIDS ENTREPRENEUR FAIR AT THE SHOPS ON SATURDAY AT NOVEMBER 5TH.
AND THEN ON THE SAME DAY, UH, FROM FOUR TO SIX IS THE CHINO VALLEY PITCH COMPETITION, WHERE WE HAVE SOME VERY INSPIRING STUDENTS COMING OUT, SHARING THEIR BUSINESS IDEAS, PITCHING THEM TO JUDGES, WHICH ARE BUSINESSES, UM, AND LOCAL, UH, UH, FOLKS INTERESTED IN CIVIC LEADERSHIP, KIND OF JUDGING THEM, NOT JUDGING THEM, I'M SORRY,
UM, AND OF COURSE THERE'S A PRIZE FOR THIS.
UM, BUT THERE, THE JUDGES WERE ALSO ACTING AS MENTORS IN THE BACKGROUND TOO, SO WE'RE NOT JUST THROWING THEM OUT INTO THE, INTO THE OPEN.
I WILL BE THE, UH, PERSON DRESSED UP AS A FLOAT, UH, AS A GIANT SHARK.
SO IF YOU SEE ME THERE, COME SAY HI,

I SEE SOME PEOPLE, SOME YOUNG LADIES THERE FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL, I BELIEVE, AND GUY, CAN YOU PLEASE STAND UP? YOU SAID ALL OF YOU GUYS.
[00:20:01]
MORE.NOW I NEED ONE PERSON TO COME UP HERE AND JUST SORT OF SAY HI TO ME.
WHO WOULD LIKE TO DO THAT? THE FIRST ONE? HELLO.
WE'RE ALL FROM AYALA HIGH SCHOOL.
I THINK ALL OF US ARE SENIORS AT AY HIGH SCHOOL, AND SOME OF US ARE HERE JUST FOR FUN.
OTHERS ARE HERE FOR IN A GOVERNMENT ASSIGNMENT.
SO YEAH, WE'RE JUST TRYING TO GET IMMERSED IN THE POLITIC POLITICAL WORLD.
SO WHAT DO YOU THINK SO FAR? IT'S FUN.
I WAS GONNA CUT OUT AND BE LIKE, HOW DO WE GET MORE INVOLVED IN THIS LIKE, ASPECT OF POLITICS? YEAH, WE'RE TRYING TO PUT TOGETHER A TEAM COMMISSION NOW, HOPEFULLY IN THE NEAR FUTURE.
HOPEFULLY YOU CAN BE PART OF THAT.
THAT, YEAH, THAT'D BE FANTASTIC.
AND SHE, YOU SAID THAT WAS IT, CORRECT? THAT IS IT.

There will be no separate discussion of these items unless, before the City Council votes on the motion to adopt, Members of the City Council or staff request the matter to be removed from the Consent Calendar for separate action. Removed consent items will be discussed immediately after the adoption of the balance of the Consent Calendar.]
WISH TO SPEAK ON THE CONSENT CALENDAR? ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS CAN SEE NONE? I'M GONNA LOOK TO MY LEFT.ANYBODY WISH TO PULL ANYTHING? NOPE.
FIRST AND SECOND CALL FOR A VOTE.
[18. Provide direction to reschedule November 8, 2022 City Council meeting to November 7th or 9th or cancel the meeting in its entirety]
CALENDAR.ITEM NUMBER 18, WE'RE GONNA PROVIDE DIRECTION TO RESCHEDULE NOVEMBER 8TH, 2022.
CITY COUNCIL MEETING TILL NOVEMBER 7TH OR NINTH, OR COUNCIL THE MEETING ALTOGETHER.
I BELIEVE THAT'S, UH, MR. CITY MANAGER CHERYL? YES.
SO THE, UH, MUNICIPAL ELECTION IS ON NOVEMBER 8TH, WHICH IS THE DATE FOR OUR NEXT REGULARLY SCHEDULED COUNCIL MEETING.
THIS ITEM WAS PLACED ON THE AGENDA TO ALLOW THE COUNCIL TO DECIDE IF THEY WISH TO HOLD A MEETING ON THAT DATE, RESCHEDULE IT TO EITHER THE SEVENTH OR NINTH, OR JUST TO CANCEL THE MEETING ALTOGETHER.
THE CITY MANAGER, IF WE WERE TO CANCEL THIS MEETING, WOULD THIS HAVE ANY IMPACTS ON US FOR THE FUTURE? NO, SIR.
UM, THE, UH, STAFF WORKS, UH, WITH A WINDOW OF SEVERAL MONTHS IN ADVANCE, UH, IN SETTING THE AGENDA.
AND WE TRY TO SPACE ITEMS OUT, UH, AND MAKE SURE THAT ANYTHING THAT'S URGENT IS ABLE TO COME UP.
UH, UH, WE HAVE AN IN ANTICIPATION OF THE COUNCIL POTENTIALLY, UH, NOT WANTING TO, UH, HOLD A MEETING ON, UH, ELECTION DAY.
WE CAN, UH, WE PUT SOME OF THE ITEMS EARLY ON THIS MEETING AND, UH, WE WOULD HOLD OFF EVERYTHING ELSE UNTIL, UH, THE SECOND MEETING IN NOVEMBER.
UH, IF SOMETHING CAME UP URGENTLY, THEN WE WOULD CALL A SPECIAL MEETING.
BUT WE THINK WE CAN EASILY ACCOMMODATE, UH, CANCELING THE MEETING, BUT WE CAN ALSO RESCHEDULE IT, UH, AT YOUR, UH, PLEASURE.
ANY COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS? UH, I'M, I WOULD JUST MAKE A RECOMMENDATION THAT WE CANCEL THAT MEETING, UH, FOR SECOND OF THE SECOND RECOMMENDATION.
SO I GOT A MOTION IN A SECOND CALL FOR VOTE TO COUNSEL.
AND BEN, I THINK THAT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT.
WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT WE PUSH THAT OUT TO THE PUBLIC THAT THAT MEETING HAS BEEN CANCELED.
[19. Adopt new policy, Section 1.11 - Community Organization Grant Funding Policy into Administrative Policies and Procedures Manual to outline guidelines and procedures for distribution of Community Organization Support Funds]
ITEM NUMBER 19, ADOPT NEW POLICY SECTION 1.11.COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION GRANT FUNDING POLICY, INTRO ADMINISTRATION POLICY PROCEDURE MANUAL TO OUTLINE GUIDELINES AND PROCEDURES FOR DISTRIBUTION OF COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION SUPPORT FUNDS.
AND THIS IS ACTUALLY MR. MONTGOMERY? YES, SIR.
UH, AS COUNCIL MAY RECALL, IN THE, UH, FOR THE PUBLIC'S, UH, INFORMATION, WHEN WE, UH, RENEGOTIATED OUR NEW SOLID WASTE CONTRACT, THERE WAS A PROVISION THAT REQUIRES, UH, OUR HAULER TO PROVIDE, UH, FUNDING FOR COMMUNITY ORGANIZATION SUPPORT.
UH, WE, UH, UH, THROUGH THE CITY COUNCIL'S DIRECTION, UH, IDENTIFIED A PORTION OF THAT, UH, MONEY INITIALLY TO GO TO THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION.
BUT THERE WAS ALSO, UH, UH, A REMAINDER THAT THE COUNCIL WOULD HAVE, UH, DIRECT, UH, UH, OVERSIGHT ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF THOSE FUNDS.
SO THE INITIAL $40,000, WE PUT $15,000 TOWARD, UH, THE, UH, COMMUNITY FOUNDATION.
WITH THE REMAINING 25 BEING SPLIT EQUALLY AT THE DISCRETION OF EACH COUNCIL MEMBER, YOU WOULD HAVE, UH, $5,000 IN TOTAL THAT YOU COULD DIRECT TO COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS.
UM, WHAT WE ARE PRESENTING TONIGHT IS THE STRUCTURE FOR THAT, UH, COMMUNITY, UH, UH, UH, GRANT.
UH, WE, THE INTENT OF THIS, UH, POLICY IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T
[00:25:01]
RUN A FILE OF, UH, REGULATIONS RELATED TO, UH, UH, THE USE OF PUBLIC FUNDS.UH, THIS, UH, POLICY HAS A COUPLE AREAS WHERE YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GIVE MONEY.
UH, YOU COULDN'T, UH, UH, MAKE THE GRANT FOR POLITICAL PURPOSES, UH, SUCH AS CAMPAIGNING.
YOU COULDN'T GIVE IT SPECIFICALLY TO A RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION BECAUSE, UH, OF US NOT PROPAGATING RELIGION.
THAT'S NOT TO SAY THAT A RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION WITH A PROGRAM THAT BENEFITS THE COMMUNITY, YOU COULD GIVE MONEY TO SUPPORT THAT PROGRAM.
YOU JUST COULDN'T JUST GIVE IT TO, UH, UH, A PARTICULAR, UH, RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATION.
AND YOU COULDN'T GIVE IT FOR PURELY PRIVATE PURPOSES.
IT WOULD HAVE TO SERVE A PUBLIC.
UH, THIS POLICY SETS A MINIMUM, UH, UH, UH, GRANT AT $1,000.
UH, WE ANTICIPATE THERE'LL BE QUITE A BIT OF BEHIND THE SCENES PROCESSING OF THESE GRANTS.
AND SO SETTING A MINIMUM KEEPS IT FROM US HAVING A LOT OF TINY GRANTS.
UH, BUT, UH, YOU COULD GO ANYWHERE FROM A THOUSAND TO YOUR FULL 5,000.
AND THE PROCESS IS WHEN YOU IDENTIFY SOMEONE THAT YOU WANT, UH, TO, UH, BE THE RECIPIENT OF THIS GRANT STAFF WOULD THEN WORK TO, UH, SECURE A, UH, GRANT AGREEMENT.
WE'D LOOK AT, YOU KNOW, THE ORGANIZATION'S STRUCTURE AND THEN PROCESS THAT.
AND IF THEY, UH, MET ALL OF THE REQUIREMENTS, UH, THEN WE'D, UH, INFORM YOU THAT THOSE GRANTS, UH, WOULD BE, UH, AVAILABLE TO THOSE ORGANIZATIONS.
SO THIS POLICY IS JUST THAT, UH, VETTED STRUCTURE IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO CARRY OUT YOUR WISHES.
UH, WHEN WOULD THIS BE, WHEN WOULD THE FIRST DISTRIBUTION OF THESE FUNDS BE AVAILABLE FOR US TO, UH, GRANT TO, TO AN ORGANIZATION? AND IS THERE ANY PROHIBITION, LET'S SAY THAT MORE THAN ONE COUNCIL MEMBER WANTS TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE SAME ORGANIZATION.
IS THERE ANY PROHIBITION OF, OF THAT? NO, WE DON'T HAVE ANY.
UH, THE EASIER ONE IS WE DON'T HAVE ANY PROHIBITIONS THAT YOU ALL COULDN'T SUPPORT, UH, THE SAME ORGANIZATION.
AND ONCE THE COUNCIL, UH, IF THE COUNCIL ADOPTS THIS POLICY, UH, WE WOULD BE ABLE TO START WORKING, UH, THE PROCESS IMMEDIATELY.
THANK YOU FOR VETTING THIS WHOLE PROCESS.
I JUST GOT TWO QUICK QUESTIONS.
SO IN OTHER WORDS, THIS IS A NEW POLICY, CORRECT? YES, SIR.
BRAND NEW POLICY AND THE AMOUNT OF MONEY, UM, THOUSAND DOLLARS, IF WE WERE TO GO 500, WOULD THAT BE A LITTLE BIT TOO MUCH WORK? OR IS WHY WE'RE NOT JUST, AND, AND I, I'M GLAD YOU BROUGHT THAT UP BECAUSE NOT NECESSARILY, UH, UH, THIS ISN'T TOO MUCH WORK FOR THE CITY.
IT WOULD PROBABLY BE TOO MUCH WORK FOR THE ORGANIZATION.
CAUSE THERE'S GONNA BE QUITE A BIT OF PAPERWORK.
SO WE TRY TO MAKE THAT, THAT FLOOR MORE RESPECTFUL OF WHAT THE ORGANIZATION, WHAT THE HOOPS THEY WOULD HAVE TO JUMP THROUGH.
FOR AN ORGANIZATION TO BE, UM, A RECIPIENT OR PROPOSE A RECIPIENT, THEY HAVE TO APPLY FOR THIS, IS THAT CORRECT? UH, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IS, IS YOU WOULD RECOMMEND THEM AND THEN WE WOULD WALK THEM THROUGH THE APPLICATION PROCESS.
SO IT WON'T BE JUST, THEY WILL HAVE TO APPLY BASICALLY, OR FILL OUT THE APPLICATION.
AND, AND, AND THAT'S A GOOD CLARIFICATION.
THEY WOULDN'T DIRECTLY SOLICIT THE CITY.
UH, YOU KNOW, YOU WOULD BRING TO US A WORTHY ORGANIZATION AND THEN WE WOULD WALK THEM THROUGH THE AGREEMENT PROCESS.
AND BECAUSE THE BROWN ACT, WE WOULDN'T BE DISCUSSING AMONGST OURSELVES WHICH AGENCY WE PROPOSED TO GIVE THE DONATIONS TO.
THAT'S, THAT'S REALLY, YOU WOULD WORK THROUGH ME.
UH, AND, AND YOU DON'T, YOU WOULDN'T EVEN NEED TO, UH, UH, COORDINATE WITH YOUR, UH, COLLEAGUES BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE SOLE DISCRETION.
WHAT WE WOULD HAVE IS A REPORTING PROCESS SO THAT YOU WOULD AT LEAST KNOW, UH, WHAT OTHER GRANTS WERE BEING, UH, UH, UH, GIVEN, BUT NO, WHAT WE WOULDN'T WANT TO, UH, UH, RUN A FILE OF THE, UH, UH, BROWN ACT, UH, THROUGH SERIAL MEETINGS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
SO THE REPORT WOULD BE AFTER THE FACT, AFTER WE HAD CHOSEN TO MAKE THE, AND IF IT JUST SO HAPPENED THAT SOMEONE ELSE GAVE TO THE SAME ORGANIZATION, UH, WE JUST BE REPORTED, BUT WE, IT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN DISCUSSED BEFOREHAND.
JUST ONE LAST QUESTION FOR ME.
UM, THIS IS A YEARLY PROCESS, CORRECT.
SO IN OTHER WORDS, 5,000 WOULD BE THIS YEAR, AND THEN NEXT IN A FEW MONTHS WOULD BE ANOTHER 5,000, CORRECT? OR IS IT CALENDAR? UH, WE, WE GET A $40,000 ALLOCATION, AND THE CURRENT SPLIT, UH, IS 1525.
UH, IF THE COUNCIL CHOSE TO CHANGE THAT SPLIT, UH, BUT I THINK TO CORE TO YOUR QUESTION, YES, IT'S ANNUAL AND, AND I'LL LOOK AT ROD.
UH, IT IS ON A CALENDAR, A FISCAL YEAR.
SO IT'LL BE JULY OF, UH, 2023, UH,
[00:30:01]
WHEN YOU GET YOUR NEW BUCKET OF MONEY.WITH THAT, I'D LIKE TO MAKE THE MOTION.
I'LL SECOND CALL FOR VOTE, PLEASE.
[20. Review and file update for emergency repairs at Well 15 and determine by majority vote that there is no further need to continue emergency actions for repairs and terminate emergency status]

PLANNING COMMISSION ITEM, AND WE DO HAVE ONE SPEAKER FOR THIS.HEY, FIRST OF ALL, ARE WE GONNA, DOES ANYBODY WANNA PULL 21? NO.
SO DOES THE APPLICANT KNOW THAT IF WE DON'T PULL IT, IT'S NOT THE APPLICANT.
IT'S JUST A PUBLIC SPEAKER WHO WANTED TO SPEAK ON THE ITEM? SURE.
UM, OR DEANNA, SHE HAS TO WAIT LONGER.
SO MAYOR MARQUEZ, CITY COUNCIL, UH, STAFF, AND ALSO FELLOW RESIDENTS.
I JUST COME HERE ON BEHALF OF THE INFUSION ZONE AND JUST WANNA SAY THANK YOU, YOU KNOW, FOR RECOGNIZING THE FACT THAT SHE HAS APPLIED, YOU KNOW, TO SERVE ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES AND HAVE ADULT ENTERTAINMENT THERE.
UH, I WANNA SAY TO DEANNA MARGARITA IS ONE OF OUR MORE TREASURED MEMBERS OF THE CHAMBER.
SHE'S ON, SERVES ON THE BOARD WITH ART AND MYSELF AND OTHERS, AND JEFF VACA.
UH, SHE'S ALSO, UH, VERY ACTIVE WITH OUR AMBASSADORS.
SHE SERVES AS A BUSINESS COUNSELOR AND, UH, AND COACH FOR WOMEN'S BUSINESS CENTER, AS WELL AS OWNING HER OWN BUSINESS WITH HER HUSBAND AXEL.
UH, WE BELIEVE THAT HER BUSINESS IN THIS COMMUNITY IS JUST ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF A BUSINESS THAT SURVIVED THE SERIOUS COVID CRISIS THAT WE WENT THROUGH.
UH, SHE'S COME UP AGAINST ALL ODDS AND KEPT THIS BUSINESS GOING, AND BY THE COUNCIL, RECOGNIZING THAT AND GIVING HER A CHANCE TO EXPAND HER OPERATION LIKE THIS, WE THINK IT'S GONNA BE A REAL SUCCESS STORY THAT IN THE FUTURE, YOU AND PERHAPS AS COUNCIL CAN ALSO, UH, MENTION, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU TALK TO OTHER BUSINESS OWNERS THAT ARE COMING TO THE COMMUNITY, YOU KNOW, AS A MODEL OF HOW WE DO TREASURE OUR BUSINESSES IN THIS COMMUNITY.
SO I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU FOR THAT.
I ALSO WANTED TO PRAISE DEANNA.
SHE HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF MY MOST FAVORITE, UH, UH, BUSINESS PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY.
JUST A COUPLE COMMENTS REAL FAST FROM ME, DEANNA.
WE DON'T HAVE TO VOTE ON THIS.
SO JUST MOVING FORWARD, WE TALKED ABOUT THAT EARLIER TODAY.
UM, I JUST WANNA SAY THANK YOU TO, FOR YOU.
UM, WE DID HAVE SOME ISSUES AS FAR AS THE PROCESSING, UH, AS FAR AS CONCERNS THAT YOU HAD.
AND I JUST WANNA SAY THANK YOU FOR REACHING OUT TO ME AND MEETING WITH OUR STAFF AND, UH, WORKING THROUGH THESE ISSUES AND PROBLEMS. SO AGAIN, THANK YOU.
ONE COMP

LAST NIGHT, THE DEPUTIES CONDUCTED A TRAFFIC STOP NEAR BROOKWOOD LANE AND BUTTERFIELD RANCH ROAD.
THE DRIVER WAS CONTACTED AND FOUND TO BE IN POSSESSION OF A GHOST GUN.
THE DRIVER WAS SUBSEQUENTLY ARRESTED, AND HE WAS ALSO TRANSPORTED TO JAIL.
ON THE ISSUE OF TRAFFIC, WE'RE STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH PARENTS PARKING IN THE FIRE LANES AT CITY HALL WHILE DROPPING OFF OR PICKING UP THEIR KIDS.
THIS IS CREATING A HAZARD AND MAKING IT DANGEROUS FOR CITY HALL EMPLOYEES WALKING INTO THE BUILDING AS WELL AS RESIDENTS.
WE'VE ISSUED 93 FIRE LANE VIOLATIONS IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS AT CITY HALL.
PLEASE BE AWARE THIS IS A NO STOPPING ZONE AND TO MAKE ALTERNATE ARRANGEMENTS FOR STUDENT PICKUP OR DROPOFFS.
AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR COOPERATION AND RECOGNIZING THIS.
AND THAT'S, SIR, THAT'S ALL I HAVE.
I'D LIKE TO BEGIN BY THANKING ALL THE MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY THAT, UH, CAME OUT TO OUR OPEN HOUSE.
IT OCCURRED ON, UH, OCTOBER 15TH AT OUR, UH, TRAINING CENTER ON SCHAFFER.
UM, I'M HAPPY TO REPORT THIS YEAR WE ACTUALLY HAD, UM, TRIPLE ATTENDANCE FROM OUR PREVIOUS BIGGEST YEAR.
SO WE ACTUALLY HAD OVER 2000 MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, UH, COME FORWARD TO PARTICIPATE THIS YEAR.
SO JUST OVERWHELMING PARTICIPATION, AND IT WAS A PLEASURE TO SEE EVERYONE OUT THERE AND JOIN THEMSELVES.
I THINK THE WEATHER COOPERATED AS WELL FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT WERE ABLE TO ATTEND.
ALSO, MANY OF YOU ARE AWARE WE HAVE A HAZARDOUS MATERIALS RESPONSE TIME, UH, RESPONSE TEAM.
WE'VE HAD THAT TEAM IN PLACE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS, BUT RECENTLY OUR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS RESPONSE TEAM WAS RECOGNIZED BY THE CALIFORNIA OFFICE OF EMERGENCY SERVICES AS WHAT WE CALL A TYPED TEAM, WHICH MEANS THAT, UH, WE'VE ATTAINED THE LEVEL OF TRAINING AND EQUIPMENT TO BE RECOGNIZED AS A STATE RESOURCE TO BE USED THROUGHOUT THE STATE, AS NEEDED ON MUTUAL AID.
SO THAT'S BEEN A LONG PROCESS FOR US TO ACHIEVE THAT, AND WE'RE VERY PROUD OF OUR MEMBERS.
UM, USUALLY THAT INSPECTION PROCESS TAKES ABOUT THREE HOURS.
UM, BUT BECAUSE OF THE EFFORTS OF OUR TEAM, THEY ACTUALLY GOT THROUGH IT IN ABOUT 45 MINUTES, THANKS TO THEIR DILIGENCE.
AND THANK YOU TO THE STATE FOR THAT PARTICIPATION.
ALSO, JUST AN UPDATE QUICKLY ON STATION 68.
UH, WE'RE MOVING FORWARD WITH DEVELOPING ELEVATIONS FROM THE ARCHITECT, AND WE'LL BE BACK WITH MORE INFORMATION ON THAT SOON.
UH, REALLY PLEASED WITH THAT PROGRESS.
AND THEN FINALLY, AS MENTIONED, UH, THE CHINO VALLEY LEADER LEADERSHIP COLLABORATIVE.
UM, I'LL BE PARTICIPATING AS A REPRESENTATIVE FROM THE FIRE DISTRICT WITH THAT, UH, GROUP.

UM, AND THEN I ATTENDED A CONFERENCE, UM, IT'S CALLED, IT'S NEEDED, THAT IS PUT ON BY, UM, A CHINO POLICE OFFICER, RYAN TILLMAN AND OUR CITY MANAGER, OUR POLICE CHIEF, AND MYSELF AND SOMEONE FROM CODE ENFORCEMENT ATTENDED.

IT'S ABOUT, UM, STRENGTHENING POLICE COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS AND IN THIS, UM, IN THIS CLIMATE OF LAW ENFORCEMENT AND STRONG OPINIONS.
THIS IS, IT'S PERFECT WHAT HE'S CALLED IT.
AND IT'S JUST WONDERFUL TO PUT THAT OUT THERE AND TO STRENGTHEN THE PARTNERSHIPS.

SO THANK YOU FOR ATTENDING WITH ME.

AND ALSO LEARN A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THEIR BUSINESS.
AND HOPEFULLY AFTER YOU'VE MADE THAT INITIAL, UH, CONNECTION, HOPEFULLY YOU WILL ACTUALLY GO AND VISIT THOSE AND, AND HELP THEM OUT.
UH, YOU'VE PROBABLY HEARD, I THINK THERE'S THIS THING CALLED AN ELECTION COMING UP ON THE 8TH OF NOVEMBER, AND NOT MEANING TO MAKE, UH, MAKE THAT HUMOROUS, BUT WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE MEETING THAT EVENING, SO WE WON'T BE ABLE TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT IT THAT EVENING.
BE SURE I KNOW THE STUDENTS THAT ARE HERE MAY NOT BE OF AGE TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT YET.

WE HAD ISSUES WITH THE GRANITE.
UH, WE, IT JUST WAS ON AGAIN, OFF AGAIN.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THEY HAVE FINALLY REPLACED IT.
AND THIS, UH, THIS REPLACEMENT LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO ACTUALLY WORK LONG TERM.
IT'S DARKER, IT SHOWS IT'S CONTRAST.
I THINK IT'S A FAR BETTER, UH, COLOR AND, UH, REPRESENTATION THAN WE HAD ORIGINALLY.
AND THOSE OF YOU THAT ARE TALKING ABOUT GOVERNMENTAL, UH, INVOLVEMENT, UH, EVERY YEAR, WE ARE HONORED BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF CHINO VALLEY UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT TO HONOR THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE CHOSEN TO VOLUNTEER FOR THE SERVICE IN THE DIFFERENT, UH, UH, SERVICES WITHIN THE UNITED STATES.

I KNOW THIS WILL BE THE FIRST OF MANY THAT WITH THE NEW FRANCHISE AGREEMENT, WE WILL BE ABLE TO HAVE MULTIPLE, MULTIPLE COMMUNITY CLEANUPS, CUZ THEY'RE CERTAINLY NEEDED.
NOT EVERYBODY WANTS TO UTILIZE THE BULKY ITEM PICKUPS THAT YOU HAVE.
SO THANK YOU TO CITY STAFF FOR, UH, FOR THAT.

SHE WAS PASSIONATE ABOUT RAISING AWARENESS FOR CHILDHOOD CANCER.
STARTED A PROGRAM TO PROVIDE COLORFUL SHEETS TO KIDS IN THE HOSPITAL, BATTLING CANCER.
SHE TOUCHED MANY LIVES DURING HER OWN BATTLE WITH CANCER AND TAUGHT US ALL OF THE IMPORTANCE OF LIVING EVERY DAY TO THE FULLEST AND STAYING POSITIVE, IMMENSE, THE WORST OF SITUATION.
