I'D LIKE TO INVITE POLICE CHIEF ADAM FOSTER AND LOS ANGELES ASSISTANT CHIEF CHRISTOPHER AK TO THE PODIUM. AND I GUESS WE'LL TURN THAT OVER THERE AND WE'LL TAKE OUR PLACES BACK UP THERE. GOOD EVENING, COUNSEL. THANK YOU SO MUCH. TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO KIND OF DISCUSS WITH, UH, YOU GUYS IN THE COMMUNITY. A COUPLE INCIDENTS THAT HAVE OCCURRED OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS. I WANNA START WITH, UH, THE CHEMICAL INCIDENT THAT HAPPENED ON SEPTEMBER 8TH. AND I WANNA JUST KIND OF GIVE A HIGH LEVEL [00:10:01] OVERVIEW OF, OF GENERALLY WHAT OCCURRED AND MAYBE SOME LESSONS LEARNED, UH, FROM THOSE INCIDENTS. SO, UH, AS YOU GUYS KNOW, ON SEPTEMBER 8TH, ABOUT 1145, THE POLICE DEPARTMENT RECEIVED CALLS OF SMOKE OR SOME YELLOW FUMES, UH, COMING FROM THE AREA OF CYPHERS AND LAMBERT LA COUNTY FIRE RESPONDED ALONG WITH MY OFFICERS TO THAT AREA AND TRIED TO LOCATE EXACTLY WHERE THIS INCIDENT WAS OCCURRING. UH, PRETTY QUICKLY WE IDENTIFIED THE BUSINESS, UH, WHERE, UH, THESE FUMES WERE WERE COMING FROM. UM, AND WHEN THE INITIAL RESPONDING OFFICERS CAME ON SCENE, THERE WAS VERY LIMITED IN THE INFORMATION OF WHAT WAS OCCURRING. THE ONE THING THAT WE DID KNOW IS THAT WE CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS A YELLOW TYPE SMOKE COMING FROM THE BUILDING, AND OFFICERS AND FIRE DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS ABOUT A FOUR MILE AN HOUR NORTHEAST WIND BLOWING AT THAT TIME AS WELL. SO SEVERAL THINGS WERE OCCURRING ALL AT ONCE. BESIDES GETTING MORE RESOURCES THERE, THERE WERE, UH, SEVERAL PRIORITIES THAT WE HAD DETERMINING WHAT WAS ACTUALLY OCCURRING CONTAINING THE AREA, NOT ONLY WHERE THAT BUSINESS IS AT, BUT THE SURROUNDING AREA. AND SO WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT'S CLOSING STREETS, THAT'S LIMITING ACCESS TO VEHICLES, UH, THE COMMUNITY, AND ALSO GETTING SOME OF THE BUSINESSES THAT ARE DIRECTLY, UH, NEXT TO THE BUSINESS THAT WAS HAVING THE INCIDENT, UM, TO GET SOME OF THEIR EMPLOYEES OUT OF THE WAY SO THAT WE CAN BRING IN ADDITIONAL RESOURCES. THE OTHER THING THAT WAS BEING DISCUSSED WAS WHAT IMPACT THIS WAS GONNA HAVE ON THE COMMUNITY. AT THAT TIME, WE WERE CONSIDERING AND DISCUSSING WHAT AN EVACUATION WOULD LOOK LIKE, BUT THAT ORDER HAD NOT OCCURRED. BUT WE ALSO HAD A SCHOOL THAT WAS IN THE DIRECTION OF THAT SMOKE, THAT THAT WENT DIRECTION. AND PRETTY QUICKLY WE DETERMINED THAT WE NEED TO CONSIDER, UH, EVACUATION EVACUATING WASHINGTON MIDDLE SCHOOL. UM, SO WHILE LA COUNTY FIRE WAS BRINGING INAL RESOURCES, LAHABRA POLICE DEPARTMENT ASSISTED LAHABRA CITY SCHOOL DISTRICT IN ACTUALLY EVACUATING WASHINGTON MIDDLE SCHOOL, THAT WASN'T ON AN ORDER, THAT WAS A DETERMINATION BY US BECAUSE OF THE LIST THAT, THAT IS THE AMOUNT OF RESOURCES NEEDED TO DO THAT. IT WAS A VERY QUICK DECISION. AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT WE, WE INITIALLY GOT THE CALL ABOUT 1145 AND BY 1158 WE WERE EVACUATING WASHINGTON MIDDLE, UM, AND, YOU KNOW, SPLIT SECOND DECISION. BUT WE THOUGHT IT WAS THE RIGHT THING TO DO AT, AT THAT TIME, BUT THAT WASN'T FOR THE WHOLE AREA. THAT WAS FOR THE SCHOOL BECAUSE OF THE DIFFICULTY, UM, IN EVACUATING THAT MANY KIDS. SHORT TIME LATER, A UNIFIED, UH, INCIDENT COMMAND WAS SET UP THE HARBOR AND CYPRUS. SO THAT WAS THE HARBOR COUNTY FIRE AND LA HARBOR POLICE DEPARTMENT, EXCUSE ME, LA COUNTY FIRE AND LA HARBOR POLICE DEPARTMENT, WORKING SIDE BY SIDE TO DETERMINE WHAT WAS GONNA OCCUR. UM, PRETTY QUICKLY, AND OBVIOUSLY THIS IS IN HINDSIGHT, COUNTY FIRE, WHICH I'M GONNA GIVE TO A LITTLE BIT OF TIME TO SPEAK ON THIS, WAS ABLE TO DETERMINE, UH, THAT THE STATUS WAS IMPROVING AS TIME WENT ON AND, UH, WE WERE ABLE TO CONTAIN THAT. UM, SO I'M GONNA HAND IT OVER TO CHIEFS AND I'M GONNA COME IN AFTER DISCUSS A LITTLE BIT ABOUT LESSON. SO BE HERE. I A CHANCE TO MEET ALL THESE. I'M CHRIS SAK. I'M YOUR ASSISTANT CHIEF OF DIVISION FOUR FOR LA COUNTY FIRE, AND THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO BE HERE TONIGHT. UH, SO I'LL TALK ABOUT OUR FIRST ALARM RESPONSE. OUR INITIAL, UH, RESPONSE WAS A HAZMAT, UH, CALL, WHICH WE RESPONDED, EIGHT UNITS, WHICH INCLUDED A HAZMAT TASK FORCE IN 27 PERSONNEL. WE QUICKLY ADDED AN ADDITIONAL SIX RESOURCES FOR AN ADDITIONAL 10 FOR A TOTAL OF 14, UH, PIECES OF EQUIPMENT AND 30, 37 PERSONNEL RESPONDING TO THE INCIDENT. UH, OUR FIRST ON SCENE RESOURCES, UH, THEIR RESPONSIBILITY, OBVIOUSLY, ASIDE FROM GIVING A SIZE UP, WAS TO ISOLATE AND DENY ENTRY. AND THAT'S WHERE, AGAIN, THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AND YOUR FIRE DEPARTMENT WORKED HAND IN HAND. AND, UH, DID THAT IMMEDIATELY. WE'RE ABLE TO ALSO, INITIALLY USING OUR EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDE, PUT A, UM, AN ADVISORY OUT IN A ONE MILE RADIUS, RADIUS RADIUS AROUND THE FACILITY. UH, AND WE'RE USING THE SHELTER IN PLACE AS A TACTIC. 40 EMPLOYEES WERE EVACUATED. UH, THREE WERE RETREATED FOR MINOR RESPIRATORY, UM, COMPLICATIONS, BUT ALL RELIEVED THAT SCENE. AS THE POLICE CHIEF SAID, WE WERE IN, UH, UNIFIED COMMAND. WE ESTABLISHED, UH, COMMAND POSTS JUST SOUTH OF THE INCIDENT. UM, OUR HAZMAT [00:15:01] TASK FORCE, UH, THEIR JOB WAS TO IDENTIFY THE PRODUCTS, CONTROL IT TO MAKE SURE IT WAS STATIC AND THEN CONTAIN. ADDITIONALLY, THEY PROVIDED AIR SAMPLING TO ENSURE THAT, UH, WE KEPT PEOPLE AWAY FROM, KEPT PEOPLE OUT OF THE AREA. AND TO MAKE SURE AS WE WENT IN THAT WE WERE WEARING APPROPRIATE RESPIRATORY PROTECTION. UH, WE ALSO BROUGHT IN UAS, WE BROUGHT IN DRONES AND THEY ASSISTED US WITH IDENTIFICATION, SOME OVERWATCH AND THE, THE PLANNING PHASE. UM, AFTER THE INCIDENT BECAME STATIC, AND WHICH WAS VERY QUICKLY IN TWO HOURS, THIS WAS, WAS UNDER CONTROL. UM, ORANGE COUNTY HEALTH WITH LA COUNTY ASSISTING TOOK OVER WITH THE LAST PORTION OF IT, WHICH WAS THE CLEANUP, CONTAINMENT AND THE DISPOSAL. IT'S CURRENTLY UNDER INVESTIGATION WITH, UH, ORANGE COUNTY BEING THE LEAD. AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE. THANK YOU, CHIEF. UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WANTED TO, UH, BRING UP IS, IS THAT, UH, AS CHIEF CHIEF WAS MENTIONING, THE AMOUNT OF RESOURCES THAT WAS PROVIDED TO US BY LA COUNTY FIRE TREMENDOUS, AND IT WAS ABLE TO ALLOW US TO GAIN KNOWLEDGE OF THE INCIDENT VERY QUICKLY. HOWEVER, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I THINK WAS A BIG LEARNING POINT, AT LEAST, UH, FOR US AT THE, AT THE POLICE DEPARTMENT IS COMMUNICATING TO THE PUBLIC. SO, INITIALLY THERE WERE REPORTS OUT THAT WE WERE EVACUATING FOR A ONE MILE AREA. THAT WASN'T NECESSARILY THE CASE. WE WERE PREPARING FOR THAT. AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WANNA SHARE WITH YOU GUYS IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN ADVISORY, A FILTER IN PLACE, AND AN ACTUAL EVAC. THEY'RE, THEY'RE, THEY'RE VERY MUCH DIFFERENT. AND IF WE WERE ACTUALLY GOING TO EVAC, UH, WE WOULDN'T RELY SOLELY ON SOCIAL MEDIA OR SOME TYPE OF TECHNOLOGY. WE WOULD'VE OFFICERS DRIVING DOWN THE STREETS ON PAS, MAKING ANNOUNCEMENTS, KNOCKING ON DOORS. UH, WE WOULDN'T LET IT BE BY CHANCE, UH, IF YOU WERE GOING TO BE ORDERED TO EVACUATE OR NOT, WHEN IT'S SOMETHING MORE OF AN ADVISORY. WE DEFINITELY TRIED TO USE SOCIAL MEDIA OR OTHER MEDIA RESOURCES. UM, AND I THINK THAT WAS A LEARNING POINT AS WELL AS, AS HOW WE WERE USING THAT, UH, DURING THIS INCIDENT. UM, WE HAD THREE OPPORTUNITIES DURING THIS INCIDENT. WE HAD THE REGULAR MEDIA, TV, RADIO, WE HAD SOCIAL MEDIA, AND THEN WE HAD A TECHNOLOGY REVERSE NINE ONE OR ALERT OC. ALL THREE OF THOSE WERE OCCURRING AT ONCE. AND I THINK THAT WAS THE BIGGEST LEARNING LESSON IS, UM, AS WE'RE PUTTING OUT MEDIA RELEASES OR TALKING IN FRONT OF CHANNEL FIVE NEWS, WE ARE ALSO TRYING TO GET OUT TO THE COMMUNITY VIA, UH, REVERSE 9 1 1. WHAT WE LEARNED AT THE TIME WAS, IS THAT REVERSE 9 1 1 ISN'T AS FAST AS ME TALKING TO CHANNEL FIVE NEWS, AND IT WAS UNTIMELY INFORMATION. SO WE PULLED BACK THAT MESSAGE BECAUSE WE DIDN'T WANT TO GIVE MISINFORMATION. IT WAS A BIG LEARNING POINT FOR US. UM, AND, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE KEY THINGS IS, YOU KNOW, FOR EXAMPLE, CHIEFS AND I DISCUSSED IS THEY HAVE A GREAT, UH, PIO. UM, SO WHEN HE FINALLY LANDED AND WE STARTED WORKING TOGETHER, IT WAS SEAMLESS, BUT WE DIDN'T HAVE THAT ORIGINALLY. SO, YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IS, IS WORKING TOGETHER, TOGETHER, EVEN IF THEY'RE NOT IN PERSON. BUT EVEN IF I JUST GET ON THE PHONE WITH THEIR PIO AND CONNECT AND START PUTTING OUT A UNIFIED MESSAGE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, UM, THAT, THAT WAS ANOTHER THING. BUT I, BUT I, WHAT I WANNA SHARE, WHAT WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART ABOUT THIS IS, IS THAT, UH, FANTASTIC WORK BY LA COUNTY FIRE, BUT ALSO FANTASTIC WORK FROM OUR PUBLIC WORKS, FROM OUR COMMUNITY SERVICES. THEY HAD THE COMMUNITY CENTER OPEN, READY TO RECEIVE ANYBODY IF NEEDED. UH, PUBLIC WORKS HELPED, UH, WITH DOWN THE TREES. IT WAS A TREMENDOUS EFFORT BY ALL OF THEM. I THINK SOMETIMES THEY GET, UH, LEFT UNNOTICED. SO I, I REALLY WANTED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THEM. I ALSO WANNA ACKNOWLEDGE THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS, UM, NOT ONLY LA HABER CITY, BUT UH, FULLERTON JOINT. THEY WERE, UH, VERY HELPFUL IN ALL OF THIS. AND OF COURSE, THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB, WHERE ULTIMATELY THE WASHINGTON MIDDLE SCHOOL, UH, KIDS LANDED AND WERE ABLE TO, UH, BE RELEASED TO THE PARENTS. SO REALLY A TREMENDOUS EFFORT. DEFINITELY LEARNED ABOUT THE, THE, THE COMMUNICATION AND GETTING THAT OUT TIMELY AND ACCURATELY. AND I THINK THAT'S, UH, SOMETHING MOVING FORWARD. WE'LL, WE'LL BE ABLE TO, UH, CORRECT. DON'T KNOW IF YOU GUYS WANNA MOVE ON TO, UH, BRIEFLY THE LAHABRA, UH, HEIGHTS FIRE, OR IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. OKAY. UM, SO AS YOU GUYS KNOW, LAST WEEK, UH, THERE WAS A FIRE REPORTED, UM, AND IT WAS ALSO REPORTED TO THE CITY OF LA HABRA AS WELL. ULTIMATELY, THE FIRE WAS IN LA HABRA HEIGHTS. AS FAR AS THE POLICE DEPARTMENT'S RESPONSE, WE RESPONDED TO ASSIST WITH CLOSING [00:20:01] DOWN HACIENDA TO CONTROL TRAFFIC, AND THEN TO ASSIST IF NEEDED WITH EVACUATIONS. WE HAD A FEW OFFICERS RESPOND TO THAT COMMAND POST TO BE DEPLOYED IF NEEDED. UH, ULTIMATELY, AGAIN, GREAT JOB BY LA COUNTY FIRE, UH, CONTAINED VERY QUICKLY. AND, UH, WE WERE ABLE TO, UH, RETURN OUR OFFICERS BACK TO THE CITY PRETTY QUICK. SO I'M GONNA TURN OVER TO, UH, OKAY. SO THE FIRE WENT OUT AT, UH, APPROXIMATELY 2 25. IT WAS REPORTED TO BE AT, UH, 24 90 PAL IN THE CITY OF HEIGHTS. UH, FIRST ALARM, WE HAD 30 FEW RESOURCES RESPOND. 104 PERSONNEL, UH, WHICH INCLUDED SIX ROTOR WING AND FIVE FIXED WING. UH, A SECOND ALARM WAS CALLED IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE WE HAD A TRUCTURE THREAT WHERE ADDITIONAL 40 RESOURCES RESPONDED. AND ANOTHER 24 PERSONNEL FOR A TOTAL OF 74 RESOURCES AND 2 28 PERSONNEL ASSIGNED TO THE INCIDENT. THE INCIDENT, UH, WAS 17.2 ACRES. UH, WE DID GET IN UNIFIED COMMAND WITH THE CITY OF WAHA HEIGHTS AND THE, UH, LOS ANGELES SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. PROGRESS WAS STOPPED AT, UH, FOUR 50. IT WAS DECLARED. UNFORTUNATELY, WE DID LOSE TWO HOMES AND ONE OUTBUILDING. UH, THE FIRE WAS IN RECEPTIVE FUELS THAT HADN'T BURNED IN PROBABLY OVER 80 YEARS. AND, UM, IT WAS TOPOGRAPHY DRIVEN ON A VERY STEEP SLOPE. SO, UH, THAT HOME, THE INITIAL HOME WAS IMPACTED VERY QUICKLY. AND I THINK IT'S, MOST OF YOU KNOW THAT THE STREETS ARE VERY NARROW UP THERE. SO OUR PRIORITY IS GETTING PEOPLE OUT AND THEN GOING TO WORK AND PROTECTING PROPERTY. SO UNFORTUNATELY, WE LOST A FEW STRUCTURES. UM, AFTER FORD PROGRESS WAS STOPPED, WE BECAME AN ASSISTING AGENCY. UH, WE ASSISTED THROUGH THE EVENING AND ACTUALLY THROUGH THE NEXT DAY WITH A HUNDRED PERCENT MOP UP OF, OF THE, UM, THE AREA CAUSE IS CURRENTLY UNDER INVESTIGATION. UH, EVACUATION WARNINGS WENT INTO PLACE IMMEDIATELY ON CA A SHELL WEST SKYLINE DRIVE, AND THEY WERE LIFTED AFTER FOUR PROGRESS WAS STOPPED. AND AGAIN, GOOD COORDINATION BY ALL. AND I'LL, I'LL SAY, UH, LOS ALTOS HIGH SCHOOL WAS IDENTIFIED AS OUR EVACUATION CENTER. ANY QUESTIONS COMMENT THEN? UH, I JUST WANNA, HOW PROUD I'M BOTH, OUR RESPONSE THAT YOU DID TO BOTH SITU PEOPLE ASKED COUNCIL GETS AS WELL, WHY YOU GO TO A Y WHY THE AMOUNT OF RESOURCES YOU'RE, HAVE I TO GO IN THERE? PLEASE TAKE CARE OF BUSINESS, YOU MAKE IT HAPPEN. PROUD YOU INDIVIDUAL, ROSE, GO THIS, HAVE A THANK YOU. AND OF COURSE, ROSE HERE IN I'M ONE MORE COMMENT BECAUSE THE CHIEF ACKNOWLEDGED US, BUT I HAVE TO SAY, WE, WE TEACH SOMETHING CALLED TIER TAKE AN ISSUE THAT ENGAGE REPORT IN THE FIRE SERVICE. I COMMEND HIS OFFICERS FOR TAKING ACTION AND, AND, AND EVACUATING THAT SCHOOL. THAT WAS OUTSTANDING WORK. AND I WAS PROUD TO STAND NEXT TO HIM AT THE COMMAND. NOW I BE REMISS. I DO NOT MESS THE PUBLIC. THEY WERE OUT THERE, OFF AND ALONG THE EARTH. SO WE HAD MY THANK YOU GENTLEMEN, VERY MUCH THANK AND COUNSEL. UM, WE WELCOME THAT CRITICISM AND IT'S IMPORTANT HOWEVER, THAT RESIDENTS UNDERSTANDING THAT WHAT OUR ROLE IS IN THIS EMERGENCY, UM, FROM A LARGE INCIDENT COMMAND BACKGROUND TODAY, KNOW MY ROLE AS A CITY COUNCIL MEMBER AS MUCH AS I OUT THERE, AS MUCH AS I WANNA SHARE CERTAIN THINGS, CERTAIN ASPECTS OF, OF THESE TYPES OF INCIDENT, THAT'S NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY. SO I THINK THAT IT, UM, WE EX EXERCISED A GREAT DEAL OF DISCIPLINE, RECOGNIZING THAT WE HAVE THESE ON THE, WE HAVE WHEN THOSE PARTICULAR CASE, WE PEOPLE DO THE WORK, WE GOTTA LET EXPERTS THEM DO THEIR JOB. SO I COMMEND YOU, BOTH OF YOU FOR THE OUTSTANDING RESPONSE. AND I'M GONNA, WE BE THE RESIDENT BUSINESS OWNERS THAT WERE COOPERATIVE BECAUSE THAT OCCURRED CITY ALSO TO COME IN. AND I DON'T THINK I, I PERSONALLY THINK ENOUGH THE, THE, AND THE RESIDENT FOR FIRE. [00:25:01] A BIT QUESTION, DO, DOES THE HARBOR POLICE DEPARTMENT HAVE RESPONSIBILITY TO RESPOND TO THE LAHABRA HEIGHTS FIRE? IF NOT, WHAT IS THE, WHAT WAS THE THOUGHT PROCESS? WHAT WAS THE REASONING? WHAT IS THE DYNAMIC AS FAR AS NUCLEAR RESPONSES? WHAT IS THE DYNAMICS? YEAH. SO WE, WE DO NOT COVER LAHABRA HEIGHTS. THEY, THEY'RE, UH, SERVICED BY LA COUNTY SHERIFFS. HOWEVER, WE ALWAYS GO TO OUR NEIGHBORS WHEN THEY NEED HELP. UM, WHETHER IT BE FULLERTON, THE HABRA HEIGHTS, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHEN THERE'S A CALL FOR SERVICE, WE ARE ALWAYS GOING TO GO, WE REALLY WANT TO ENSURE PUBLIC SAFETY NO MATTER IF IT'S IN THE HA OR THE HARA HEIGHTS. SO WE ARE GOING TO GO, UM, AND WE OFTEN RESPOND WITH FIRE TO FIRES BECAUSE THERE'S OTHER THINGS THAT WE CAN DO, ALLOW THEM TO DO THEIR EXPERTISE. IF WE CAN CLOSE THE STREET OFF AND WE CAN HELP EVACUATE, THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO. SO, UH, UNTIL THEY DON'T NEED US, WE ARE ALWAYS GOING TO THANK YOU. AND IT'S ANOTHER REMINDER THAT WHEN WE HAVE THESE TYPES OF DISASTERS OCCURRING, THE INCIDENT ITSELF HAS NO BEEN UNDER CONTROL. YOU HAVE TO RESPOND ACCORDINGLY AND BE ABLE TO SPARE OUR RESOURCES. AND IF, AND CORRECT IF I'M WRONG, THAT INCIDENT, UM, I RESPOND TO OUR CITY AS WELL, A MUTUAL OF, AGAIN, THAT EXTENDING REGION. SO IT WAS AN EXTENDED REGION, BUT UH, WE HAVE GREAT RELATIONSHIPS WITH ALL OF OUR SURROUNDING CITIES AND WE LEAN ON EACH OTHER. UM, AND SO WHEN WE HAD THAT INCIDENT WITH THE CHEMICALS, UH, WE HAD BREA RESPONDING TO CALLS FOR SERVICE, FOR SERVICE FOR US WITHIN MINUTES. AND, UH, WE KNOW THAT WE CAN RELY ON THEM. ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU. DON'T WANT THESE TO PLAYERS GRATITUDE, REALLY WELL'S ALWAYS FINE DEPARTMENT. ONE QUICK QUESTION. I'M CURIOUS FOR US BY VIDEO IMAGE WHITTIER, I BELIEVE TO USED, SO I'M TO WHAT EXTENT? ABSOLUTELY. UM, SO MY BACKGROUND PRIOR TO THIS POSITION, I WAS THREE YEARS. I WAS AN AIR OP. SO THAT WAS PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THAT, WHICH WAS, UH, IT WAS NICE TO SEE IT PUT IN PLAY AND TO HAVE THAT AS ANOTHER ASSET WHERE WHEN WE HAVE AIRSPACE AND WE'RE TRYING TO CONTROL AIRSPACE, AND WE HAVE MULTIPLE SITES WE CAN GO INTO AND WE CAN COORDINATE TRAFFICS, WE'RE NOT BEING BACKED UP AND WE CAN MEET OUR MISSION OF FIVE MINUTE TURNAROUND TIMES, PUT WATER ON FIRE, UH, SOMETHING LIKE A HELLA HYDRANT. IT'S SO USEFUL FOR OUR AIR OPERATIONS INSPECTION. SO IT, IT PAID THE AMOUNT OF RESOURCES WE HAVE ON INCIDENT OUTTA LEG LAKE, GONNA HELL, HYDRATING OTHER SOURCES, RIGHT? NOT GETTING CONGESTED IN THE AIRSPACE WAS VERY HELPFUL AND PROVIDE SAFETY FOR WE APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, RHONDA, AT THIS TIME I'D LIKE TO WRITE THOSE INTO THE YOU WELCOME, SIR. AND IF YOU WOULD LIKE, YOU CAN ADJUST THE MICROPHONE JUST ON THE ARM THERE. YES. OKAY. MAYOR PROM, I'M MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL. THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE HEARD. UM, MY NAME IS BRANDY MCDONALD. I'M A, UH, RESIDENT OF THE FE MOBILE HOME PARK. UM, I WROTE TO EACH OF YOU LAST WEEK REGARDING, UH, AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE BROUGHT, UH, BROUGHT TO LIGHT ONCE AGAIN, UH, AND WHICH IS, UH, RENT STABILIZATION FOR SENIORS OF PRIVATELY OWNED MOBILE HOME PARK. UM, BECAUSE THERE IS NONE. AND, UM, UH, I JUST, WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS HERE TODAY IS THE, THE REALITY OF HOW DIRE THE SITUATION IS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE ABANDONING THEIR HOMES. AND, UM, I PROVIDED, UH, I BROUGHT FOR YOU TODAY A PHOTO OF ONE OF OUR, ONE OF OUR MORE RECENT HOMES THAT WERE ABANDONED. UH, HER NAME WAS, UH, SANDRA HUNTSMAN. AND, UH, SANDRA, SANDRA AT FRIENDY VILLAGE WAS ONE OF THE LONGEST RESIDENTS, ACTUALLY THE LONGEST RESIDENT, UH, UH, LIVED, UH, THAT HAD MOVED IN THERE IN THE, IN THE NINETIES. UM, AND, UM, SHE CAME DOWN WITH, UH, PARKINSON'S DISEASE AND, UH, TO WHERE SHE NEEDED TO HAVE, UH, CARE. SHE COULD NOT JUGGLE CAREGIVING VERSUS THE RENT THAT SHE WAS HAVING TO PAY. SO WHAT HAPPENED WAS SHE ABANDONED HER HOME MANAGEMENT, TOOK THE HOME, THE HOME IS NOW NO LONGER THERE. AND, AND THE NEW HOME WILL BE TAKEN OUT. I MEAN, NOT, UH, PUT IN. NOW THE THING IS THIS, THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE. THERE ARE AT LEAST THIS YEAR, SIX ABANDONED HOMES THAT HAVE BEEN TAKEN OUT OF FENDI VILLAGE FOR HABRA. AND, UM, I WANNA POINT SOMETHING OUT. I RECENTLY, UH, RECENTLY LEARNED THAT, UH, SOME OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS, UH, ARE UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THE, UH, THAT RENT, RENT HEIGHTS ARE NOT DONE EVERY, I MEAN, UH, RENT INCREASES ARE NOT DONE EVERY YEAR. THAT'S BRANDY VILLAGE. THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE. UM, RENT, RENT IS RAISED, RENT IS RAISED AT LEAST, UH, ABOUT 6% EVERY YEAR. UM, I CANNOT REMEMBER A TIME THAT RENT A YEAR THAT RENT WAS NOT INCREASED, UH, GOING BACK AT LEAST ABOUT 15 YEARS. UM, THE OTHER THING IS, I WANT TO EXEMPLIFY THAT IT MAY SEEM LIKE 6% IS NOT A LOT OF MONEY. WELL, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT 65, 70 $5, BUT WHEN YOU COMPOUND THAT YEAR AFTER YEAR AFTER YEAR, IT ADDS UP. AND THESE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE SENIORS THAT DON'T HAVE JOBS. WE RELY ON OUR SOCIAL SECURITY. THE, THE, THE INCREASES IN SOCIAL SECURITY DON'T KEEP UP WITH THE COST OF LIVING AND THE RENT AND THE RENT INCREASES. I'D LIKE TO OFFER YOU RIGHT NOW, MIRANDA, UH, MIRANDA, UH, HOUSING, LIKE THE OPPORTUNITY TO, TO MEET WITH ANYBODY WHO'D LIKE, TALK TO HER AND MAYBE TRY, PERHAPS SHE FOR RESOURCES OR SOMETHING THAT POSSIBLY COULD BE DECIDED WITH YOU. AND BARN, I'D LIKE TO OFFER THAT. UM, IF I MAY, I, I PUT TOGETHER A, UH, A PROPOSAL AND, UM, A OF A COMPARATIVE OF ANOTHER CITY THAT, [00:35:01] UH, THAT AN ENACT AN ORDINANCE SIMILAR TO, UH, A CITY LIKE LA HUBBER. I'D LIKE TO GIVE THIS TO THE, UH, CITY CLERK, CITY MANAGER. MR. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU, SIR FOR COMING IN. ANYBODY ELSE WISH TO CITY COUNCIL PLEASE COME OVER RIGHT BACK THERE. MY NAME IS AND I CITY COUNCIL FOR TAKING AN IMPORTANT STEP FORWARD BY ING A TOBACCO RETAIL LICENSE. WE HOPE THIS LICENSE TRENDS, AGAIN IN ILLEGAL TOBACCO PRODUCTS AND HEALTH, REDUCE THE NUMBER OF TOBACCO SHOPS IN OUR CITY. AS MEMBER OF THE COMMUNITY, WE RESPECTFULLY ARGUE THE, TO CONTINUE PROMOTING OUR WELCOMING BUSINESS AND SUPPORT THE HEALTH AND WELLBEING OF OUR RESIDENT AND OUR THANK YOU FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP AND HELP. THANK YOU SO MUCH. YEAH, THANK YOU. ANYBODY ELSE? LISTEN ADDRESS PLEASE. OKAY, I'LL NOW OPEN UP THE COMMENTS. COME ON PLEASE. COME ON. MS. THOMAS. YES. CALLER, PLEASE COME IN. COMMENT? YES. OKAY. CAN YOU GUYS HEAR ME? OKAY? HI, MY NAME IS ANDREA GRANADOS. I AM A PARENT OF THREE LITTLE ONES HERE IN LAHABRA. I HAVE CURRENTLY TWO OF MY BOYS IN OUR LAHABRA LITTLE LEAGUE. UH, I'M HERE TO ADDRESS SOME ONGOING SAFETY AND SANITATION CONCERNS AT PORTOLA PARK. OUR FAMILY HAS USED PORTOLA PARK THROUGHOUT THE WEEK AS WELL AS LAA, PALMA, AND A FEW OF OTHER FIELDS FOR PRACTICES AND GAMES. UM, THROUGHOUT THE WEEK, UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAVE CONTINUED TO ENCOUNTER CONDITIONS THAT MAKE FAMILIES UNCOMFORTABLE AND CONCERNED ABOUT BRINGING THEIR CHILDREN TO THE PARK. WE HAVE ARRIVED FOR PRACTICES AND FOUND INDIVIDUALS SLEEPING OR GATHERING NEAR THE RESTROOMS AND OTHER AREAS OUR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES NEED TO USE. WE HAVE ALSO HAD PERSON FOUND PERSONAL BELONGINGS AND TRASH LEFT BEHIND, UH, AROUND THE DUGOUTS, UM, AROUND, UH, THE FIELD AS WELL. ONE OF OUR BIGGEST CONCERNS HAS BEEN THE CONDITION OF THE BASEBALL DUGOUTS AS TIMES THAT THEY HAVE HAD A STRONG SMELL OF URINE. EVEN THOUGH THESE ARE SPACES WHERE OUR CHILDREN ARE EXPECTED TO SIT, PLACE THEIR EQUIPMENT AND PRACTICE PARTICIPATE IN PRACTICES AND GAMES. I WANT TO BE CLEAR THAT THIS IS NOT ABOUT JUDGING INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. WE UNDERSTAND THAT HOMELESSNESS IS A DIFFICULT AND COMPLICATED ISSUE. OUR CONCERN IS THAT PORTFOLIO PARK IS A PUBLIC SPACE HEAVILY USED BY CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE IT REMAINS CLEAN, SANITARY, AND SAFE FOR EVERYONE WHO USES IT. WHEN PARENTS BRING THEIR CHILDREN INTO PRACTICES, WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WHETHER A DUGOUT HAS BEEN USED AS A RESTROOM, WHETHER ITEMS HAVE LEFT BEHIND, OR WHETHER CHILDREN CAN SAFELY ACCESS THE BATHROOMS AND SURROUNDING AREAS. I RESPECTFULLY ASK THE CITY COUNCIL AND CITY STAFF TO LOOK INTO WHAT CAN BE DONE TO IMPROVE THE CONDITIONS THAT FOR TOLO PARK. THIS COULD INCLUDE MORE FREQUENT CLEANING AND SANITATION OF THE DUGOUTS AND RESTROOMS. ADDITIONAL MONITORING DURING THE HOURS WHEN YOUTH PRACTICES ARE TAKING PLACE AND OUTREACH TO INDIVIDUALS WHO MAY BE STAYING AT THE PARK SO THEY CAN BE CONNECTED WITH APPROPRIATE RESOURCES. WE WANT P PARKS TO CONTINUE TO BRING A PLACE WHERE CHILDREN CAN PLAY, FAMILIES GATHER, AND EVERYONE IN OUR COMMUNITY CAN FEEL WELCOME AND SAFE. UM, YEAH, BECAUSE WE HAD GAMES THIS SUNDAY AND UM, EVEN COACHES BEFORE OUR GAME WERE STATING THAT THEY DID NOT FEEL THAT IT WAS REALLY GROSS AND DISGUSTING THAT THEY DID NOT WANNA HAVE THEIR KIDS OR, AND, UM, PLAYERS IN THE DUGOUT.
