Deputy City Manager McGovern, will you please 10 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,040 introduce the first item? 11 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:51,640 Thank you, Chair Brutin. Sec. Get this. 12 00:01:55,439 --> 00:02:01,600 I would like to introduce our senior recreation supervisor, Courtney Wiso, 13 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:05,479 who's going to give a presentation to us tonight about the clubhouse. 14 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:15,120 Good evening, Chair Brutin and Commission. I'm Courtney Weissaki. I'm 15 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:20,160 the senior recreation supervisor over at the clubhouse. We are for the 50 and 16 00:02:17,920 --> 00:02:25,599 better community. So, I'm here tonight to talk to you about uh all of our 17 00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:30,720 updates or things going on this year. Um, so what you do have in front of you 18 00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:34,720 right now is our clubhouse calendar that uh is offered four times a year and 19 00:02:32,959 --> 00:02:38,480 shows all of our programs currently March through May. 20 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:43,120 Excuse me. So, at least for the clubhouse, uh, one of the biggest 21 00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:48,000 programs that we have are our catered lunches, which some of you have 22 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:52,319 attended. Uh we offer them monthly and then we have four additional lunches 23 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:57,920 through the year uh including our Super Bowl celebration, Mother's Day, Father's 24 00:02:54,800 --> 00:03:02,959 Day, and Veterans Day. Uh our most special lunch, I would say, is our Holly 25 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:07,680 Jolly Holiday Lunchon. That's during the holiday time. And one of the great 26 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:13,200 things we do for that event is we work with local uh businesses and 27 00:03:10,159 --> 00:03:18,560 organizations to provide gifts for our seniors. So this year we were able to 28 00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:24,080 donate uh gifts for every single patron that attended the lunch as well as 29 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:30,080 raffling off the additional ones. Um some could be upwards of $100 gift 30 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:35,040 cards. So this year we did donate 271 gifts which is the most we've ever been 31 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:40,159 able to do which is fantastic. Uh we also have our bunko nights at the 32 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:45,840 clubhouse if it's offered uh by monthly. We sell out every time at 48 registered 33 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:51,120 participants. We also have three yearly clubhouse dances that typically sell out 34 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:56,640 at 120 registered participants. This last one was our past Friday. It was the 35 00:03:53,680 --> 00:04:02,560 big top bash. It was a circus theme. Uh super fun. We also offer monthly crafty 36 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:07,519 crafters programs that sell out at 35 participants. Uh four quarterly garden 37 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:13,760 club classes at 30 participants. And then our ameritus classes which um are 38 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:17,440 through Irvine Valley College and Saddleback College. They're a 39 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:22,160 partnership through them. Uh we offer them through the school semesters. So 40 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:26,000 right now we're currently in the spring. We offer 22 classes right now. And then 41 00:04:24,479 --> 00:04:30,479 same thing in the summer we'll offer another 22 classes. So those can be 42 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:39,440 either like fitness or enrichment classes. um yoga, dino band, line dance, 43 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:43,759 taichi, computer classes, uh ESL, um intermediate Spanish. So really, 44 00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:50,400 whatever your mobility is or your interest, we most likely have something 45 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:55,520 for you. Uh one thing that we've also uh added to the clubhouse for Ameritus 46 00:04:52,800 --> 00:05:00,960 Classes is in the last couple couple of years, our arts and crafts room patio 47 00:04:57,759 --> 00:05:04,720 has been updated with the awnings. So, uh, now we offer a handful of classes 48 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:09,520 out there as well, which is super great because now it's a readily used space, 49 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:14,639 not only former classes, but also for some pop-up events as well. Some 50 00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:19,600 additional programs we offer, as you know, the clubhouse is very well known 51 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:24,560 for our bingo. Uh, we offer it the first and fourth Monday of every month, as 52 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:30,880 well as every Thursday. We could get upwards of 170 plus patrons at bingo. Uh 53 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:35,840 twice a month we offer movies in our back classroom. Also twice a month we 54 00:05:33,280 --> 00:05:41,600 offer our mini excursions and a handful of large excursions a year. Our next one 55 00:05:38,639 --> 00:05:47,440 coming up is the uh San Diego Natural History Museum. Uh we offer ping pong 56 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:52,160 three days a week. Some social services and wellness resources and workshops. 57 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:57,919 So, some of the ones we currently offer physically in the center could be um 58 00:05:54,639 --> 00:06:01,759 like AARP driver safety classes, uh legal aid if you need assistance with 59 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:06,400 Medicare, um medication review, so they go over uh 60 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:11,680 like your supplements or medications that you're taking. Uh we also have a 61 00:06:09,280 --> 00:06:15,680 grief program. And then if we don't necessarily offer it, we have tons of 62 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:22,080 resources we can provide our patrons to offer out. Um, and then also once a year 63 00:06:19,039 --> 00:06:28,080 in October, we offer a senior resource fair and flu shot clinic. Uh, so it's 64 00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:34,400 always the second week in October. This past uh October, we had 44 vendors, 65 00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:39,520 which was the most we've ever had, and uh 200 registered participants. Our flu 66 00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:43,280 shot clinic is uh partnered through Ralph's Pharmacy, and then we'll be 67 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:48,639 offering it again this year, the second week of October. Uh we also have two 68 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:53,680 senior transportation programs. One with California Yellow Cab, which offers uh 69 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:58,240 taxi services to the clubhouse uh within Lake Forest and also some neighboring 70 00:06:55,280 --> 00:07:02,800 cities, and then also our Hwell uh senior services bus, which uh picks them 71 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:07,440 up at their home and then transports them directly to the clubhouse. We also 72 00:07:05,599 --> 00:07:13,280 offer Thursday clubhouse speakers and seminars uh twice a month. So that 73 00:07:10,319 --> 00:07:17,520 allows organizations to come in and talk during the bingo break. So it gives them 74 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:23,199 at least about a hundred patrons plus to talk to. Uh we typically gauge it 75 00:07:20,319 --> 00:07:27,680 obviously for topics 50 and better. So we have done things like fall pre excuse 76 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:31,520 me fall prevention, Alzheimer's, but we've also had more fun type things 77 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:38,160 bringing in like the therapy horses, therapy dogs, or I should say uh therapy 78 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:42,319 like ponies. Um yeah, but anything um that we think may be a good resource for 79 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:46,639 them, we really try and bring into the center because they may not have that 80 00:07:43,919 --> 00:07:53,520 capacity to, you know, find it on their own time. Um some new pop-up events and 81 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:58,400 programs that we have. So, uh we have Cars and Coffee. Um so, as some of you 82 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:04,479 may know, I used to run the Fourth of July parade for a couple years and one 83 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:08,960 of the car clubs was just having fun. So, I was able to make that great 84 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:13,360 connection and contacted him to see if he'd be interested in doing a car show 85 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:18,400 for the clubhouse. So, we actually have our third one coming up on Monday the 86 00:08:15,599 --> 00:08:25,199 16th. The theme is going to be cars and clovers. So, uh play on St. Patrick's 87 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:30,879 Day. And then that will be on the side parking lot um next to the clubhouse. We 88 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:36,159 also have clubhouse karaoke which is a volunteer ran program. It is super 89 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:40,399 popular. It runs once a month, the third Monday of the month. Um, and it runs for 90 00:08:38,399 --> 00:08:44,240 about two hours. He keeps extending his time because people want to attend it 91 00:08:42,719 --> 00:08:50,080 and sing for a long time, which is fantastic. Uh, we also offer holiday and 92 00:08:47,839 --> 00:08:56,000 seasonbased pop-up event. So whether Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, um, 93 00:08:53,680 --> 00:08:59,920 fall season, we had a sweater weather social. So we had someone come in and 94 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:03,519 sing and play the guitar for the patrons. 95 00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:09,120 Couple new classes we have is a partnership with my Medicare plan. They 96 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:15,920 offer a uh monthly senior flower shop class uh and also a bimonthly painting 97 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:20,640 art class. Um Optum is also doing some salsa dance classes right now. So the 98 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:24,880 next one is this upcoming Monday. We are completely sold out with uh 30 patrons 99 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:28,720 and that'll be on the arts and crafts room patio. 100 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:33,200 And also we've had some special events here at the performing arts center. Um, 101 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:39,120 so obviously even though we're at the senior center, we are community services 102 00:09:35,279 --> 00:09:44,000 and uh we like to be a dual team. So we have had two piano performances here uh 103 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:51,360 with Nick Gallinatus. He's a local pianist. Um, and next Tuesday we have 104 00:09:47,839 --> 00:09:55,200 the US Air Force uh clarinet quartet that will be coming to perform here for 105 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:59,519 a couple hours for our patrons. So that'll be super fun as well. Uh, a 106 00:09:57,680 --> 00:10:05,760 couple of pop-up events we have coming up is our spring fun ice cream social. 107 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:10,800 Uh, we work with a vintage ice cream truck. I that's the best way to describe 108 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:16,000 it. And they park out in the roundabout and just hand out tons of ice cream 109 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:20,240 bars. So, super fun for the seniors. Who doesn't love ice cream? And then as we 110 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:26,959 roll into the summer season, we also offer our summer snow cone bash. Um, so 111 00:10:24,399 --> 00:10:31,519 while this was a very condensed version on the clubhouse, uh, as you can tell, 112 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:36,320 we offer a lot of really fun programs and services for our patrons, we can 113 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:41,440 have upwards of 200 to 400 seniors coming in the facility every day 114 00:10:38,399 --> 00:10:45,120 depending on what's going on. Um, but we have a really great team and a really 115 00:10:42,959 --> 00:10:47,920 great center. So if anyone has any questions, I would be more than happy to 116 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:52,240 answer them. >> Thank you. I do enjoy the clubhouse as 117 00:10:50,399 --> 00:10:54,399 of late. It's kind of once you get into it, you just keep going. It's kind of 118 00:10:53,839 --> 00:10:56,880 addictive. So >> very addicting. 119 00:10:55,360 --> 00:11:01,680 » Um I do bingo. Yeah, that's my claim to 120 00:10:59,279 --> 00:11:06,240 fame beyond my grave marker when I die. So 121 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:09,760 are there any other comments that people like to 122 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:13,839 » Thank you, Chair Brutin. Uh thank you, Miss Wisaki. Yeah. Uh you you do the 123 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:18,320 senior clubhouse with the same passion you did the parade. Uh just a little 124 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:23,680 side note, I think it was two years ago. Was it your foot that you broke? Uh, I 125 00:11:22,079 --> 00:11:28,240 sliced my foot on >> sliced her foot. Still showed up at 6. 126 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:32,000 Still showed up at Tribute Hills High School at 6 a.m. in the morning, limping 127 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:36,000 around, not complaining, and still the parade went off without a hitch. So, I 128 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:40,240 do remember that. So, um, I hope someday to be retired and take advantage of some 129 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:45,200 of these things. My husband should do that right now. He's maybe will do that 130 00:11:42,399 --> 00:11:50,000 now. He's retired. Uh, so thank you so much. Great stuff. And, um, just good 131 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:55,279 stuff. You you um do everything with passion and 132 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:58,560 dedication and it showed with the parade. I was proud to serve under you 133 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:01,920 for a couple of years >> and the same thing with the senior 134 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:07,959 center.

Commissioner Fuentes is hereby elected 196 00:17:13,439 --> 00:17:20,559 commission vice chair. >> Very well. Thank you. 197 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:26,000 All right. That was painless. So now now it's time for comments from our deputy 198 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:29,120 city manager, Mr. McGovern. Do you have any comments to share? 199 00:17:27,360 --> 00:17:35,200 » Thank you, Chair Brutin. Just a few. got some updates on some events. The biggest 200 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:41,600 of which is the United States's 250th birthday, which is this July 4th. So, as 201 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:46,720 part of that process, um we're going to be creating a float to be in the parade. 202 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:51,200 All kinds of giveaways we're going to set aside. Um just really going to try 203 00:17:48,799 --> 00:17:56,400 to have fun with the event and make it obvious that it's the 250th birthday. 204 00:17:54,000 --> 00:18:02,160 More on this to come. Uh we're also going to have banners. So there tire is 205 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:06,559 going to be um in uh a lot of enhancements to what we typically do in 206 00:18:04,559 --> 00:18:10,640 addition to a float. So we're really looking forward to that. More on that 207 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:15,520 soon. I'll probably have a more in-depth report at the next commission meeting. 208 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:20,400 Happy to report that park security started on Monday. So nighttime patrol 209 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:25,280 started on Monday. We've already been getting some incident reports which is 210 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:29,039 exactly why we hired the security firm. So that's going well. uh that was a very 211 00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:34,480 competitive process. I think we actually set the city record for the amount of 212 00:18:31,679 --> 00:18:38,720 firms that submitted uh to participate in that procurement process. So 213 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:42,960 competition is a good thing in this area because we were really able to balance 214 00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:47,679 you know the cost of the service and the quality and really find a good match for 215 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:52,080 what we were looking for. Uh and so far uh things have worked out great. Some 216 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:56,960 other events I wanted to update the commission on dueling pianos here March 217 00:18:55,200 --> 00:19:01,440 14th. So, you can find more information about this on the city calendar and the 218 00:18:58,799 --> 00:19:06,280 city's website. It's either close to selling out or may Okay, 219 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:17,360 » 200 is our max at 195. >> So, very close. So, this event is 220 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:21,440 actually the first in a series of staff produce ticketed events. If you remember 221 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:26,880 about a year and a half, almost two years ago now, we did the focus groups 222 00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:31,600 project where we brought in a consultant to set up a focus group with different 223 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:37,280 age groups of people, all kinds of different ethnicities and really wanted 224 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:42,640 to see. We use this we use this we use this consultant to gauge um is our 225 00:19:40,559 --> 00:19:48,160 program offering matching what the market kind of demands. And we do have a 226 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:53,120 gap. there's a missing middle that we found. Looks like people are just 227 00:19:50,160 --> 00:20:00,080 wanting something to do. Um particularly in that I don't know like the working 228 00:19:55,919 --> 00:20:04,799 professional age 40 to 55 maybe 35 to 55. So we tried to market this event to 229 00:20:03,120 --> 00:20:10,160 that specific age group although it's open to everyone. And yeah this is the 230 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:14,640 first of two and so far so good. So like I said we're almost sold out. So it's a 231 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:18,559 good way to market this facility. A lot of people just don't know about this 232 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:22,559 facility yet and just you really have uh just such a great gem here that's 233 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:26,400 available for rent beyond just having city council meetings here. So, we're 234 00:20:24,799 --> 00:20:31,039 hoping to kind of kill two birds with one stone there. And we also have Bunny 235 00:20:28,799 --> 00:20:35,600 Blast on March 28th over at El Toro Park. So, those are the next two big 236 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:38,960 events. If you're planning on coming to Dueling Pianos, I guess get your tickets 237 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:45,280 right after this meeting because that's a that's a blockbuster event. So, going 238 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:51,440 to be fun. Thanks, Very well. All right. Um, moving on to 239 00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:55,240 commission member comments. We'll start with Commissioner Fuentes. 240 00:20:55,360 --> 00:21:01,760 » Awesome. Well, um, good to see you guys all again. Um, I missed the last 241 00:21:00,159 --> 00:21:09,039 meeting. I was actually at my sister's wedding in Arizona, so there was a good 242 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:15,120 reason. Um, the last couple months have been um, awesome as far as going to 243 00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:19,440 parks. I've been um to Tamaris Park. Um we've had practices there. I don't know 244 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:22,960 if you you if you're at the top of the hill kind of looking down, you can 245 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:26,159 almost see the ocean when it's really clear. I don't know if you guys have I I 246 00:21:24,559 --> 00:21:32,400 the last time I was I could almost see it. So um it was I love that park. It 247 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:37,440 was I love what the city's done. Um I've been to um the sports park a lot. Um 248 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:41,200 Baker Ranch, the sports park. I actually was just running back from a practice 249 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:45,840 from my daughter's little league um T-ball that I'm coaching. So, we were at 250 00:21:43,520 --> 00:21:49,760 Baker Ranch. Um, went home, changed, rushed back here. So, um, but I love the 251 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:55,440 park. You guys are doing a great job. Love the city staff. Um, Ken works 252 00:21:53,760 --> 00:22:00,480 really well with the Lake Force Little League because I'm on the board there, 253 00:21:56,559 --> 00:22:04,799 too. And Ken and opening day um for the little league was awesome. It was great. 254 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:08,880 We had Mayor Pea was there and he kind of said a couple words and um just 255 00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:14,720 everything kind of went really smoothly. So, I we couldn't have really done that 256 00:22:10,799 --> 00:22:22,039 without Ken and the city's help. Um, and then um what was the last thing was um 257 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:27,679 I think one more thing. Well, if I if it'll come to me, I'll come back to you, 258 00:22:25,919 --> 00:22:30,799 but it's all I had. Thank you guys very much. 259 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:36,559 » Very well then. Okay. Uh Commissioner Harry. 260 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:42,000 » Okay. All right. So, busy as always. So, of course, Margie and I the parade 261 00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:47,679 meetings, those are always fabulous. Um, went to Bunko and I mean people love 262 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:54,799 Bunko. They'll say to me, "Why can't we do it every month?" And I'm like, 263 00:22:51,280 --> 00:23:01,440 "Okay." Anyway, um, I attended the Lake Forest VIP parks meeting as always. So 264 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:05,600 informative. Uh, they've got it down where they know, I think, all the cracks 265 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:10,240 in the sidewalks and the parking lots. They're talking about how they have that 266 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:14,320 program for that. Um, it's just amazing to to kind of get a little behind the 267 00:23:12,159 --> 00:23:19,600 scenes look at some of the stuff that goes into our park maintenance and such. 268 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:25,120 Um, I attended the uh skate park design, the last one we had. 269 00:23:22,159 --> 00:23:30,320 Always so impressed with um our community that shows up is very 270 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:34,159 passionate about what they want. Um, anyway, I'm so always I'm always so 271 00:23:31,919 --> 00:23:40,240 impressed with our wonderful community. uh attended the senior lunch, the dinner 272 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:46,799 dance, the big top. Oh my gosh, it was over the top and everything that they 273 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:52,720 do. Anyway, I'm just thrilled. Um I'm attending CPS conference next week in 274 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:58,480 Long Beach. I've got my uh volunteer down so I can go for free. I'm going to 275 00:23:55,440 --> 00:24:03,919 be a room host for some of the sessions, so that'll be exciting. And of course, 276 00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:10,000 I'm looking forward to the expo hall. to see all the new stuff. And um and I know 277 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:14,640 I don't know. Is it too soon to ask about summer concerts? Who we have yet? 278 00:24:12,159 --> 00:24:17,840 I can wait. I can wait. >> Oh, no. 279 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:24,400 » Oh. >> Oh, not finalized. Okay. But anyway, 280 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:28,640 » Miss Hunter Hunter said yes. So, anyway, thank you again to everybody. I know you 281 00:24:26,799 --> 00:24:33,600 all work so hard on all these things and I really appreciate it. Okay. 282 00:24:31,279 --> 00:24:37,919 » All right. Thank you. and Commissioner Jones. 283 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:41,919 » Uh, good evening. Apologies for missing last month, but I was a little bit under 284 00:24:39,360 --> 00:24:46,159 the weather and so you're welcome. Um, did not care to share my germs with you. 285 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:48,640 Um, but happy to be back. Um, and I won't bore you with everything I've done 286 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:52,320 in the last however many months, but one of the things I did was I did attend the 287 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:57,039 three meetings about the Etnes skate park. So, looking forward to uh that 288 00:24:54,720 --> 00:25:00,640 coming back to us next month. And just wanted to plant a couple of seeds based 289 00:24:59,120 --> 00:25:05,520 on some things I heard from the community, some things that are brewing 290 00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:08,400 up here. Um, so the first is that although it wasn't part of the 291 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:13,440 discussion, the scope of the discussions that we had with the design consultant 292 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:17,360 who was wonderful. Um, but I definitely heard multiple times and observed myself 293 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:21,200 when I go to the site, we've got to do something about the parking lot. So, I 294 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:25,200 don't want that to fall off the radar with this project, especially if we make 295 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:28,960 the park so much better and it's all wheels and we're more welcoming to a 296 00:25:27,200 --> 00:25:35,360 broader community. They need somewhere to park. Um, so would love to see us 297 00:25:31,919 --> 00:25:41,279 thinking about that um as part of this project. Um, and then in terms of 298 00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:45,919 timeline, I know that there are multiple areas of the park that we'd like to work 299 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:50,640 on and the plan is to do that in sections so that the whole park is never 300 00:25:47,919 --> 00:25:54,159 entirely closed to the community. And so I'm just going to plant a seed that 301 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:58,400 there's like a really big event happening in 2028 in Southern California 302 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:03,200 um similar to one that just ended in Milan. and I'll call it the Olympics. 303 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:06,720 And um we know that a lot of countries are coming early to train. We know that 304 00:26:05,279 --> 00:26:10,799 there are swimmers from the Netherlands coming to Mission Viejo. We know about 305 00:26:08,559 --> 00:26:16,799 the pingpong facility that's happening in Lake Forest. And the skate park could 306 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:19,919 be a great training facility. So, I would love for us to think about our 307 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:24,880 timeline in terms of what do we want to have ready for 28 and what do we not 308 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:29,360 want to have fenced off in 28 so that that facility um can draw some really 309 00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:33,520 exciting um opportunities to our community. And then the last thing about 310 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:38,240 the skate park is that I know that Miss Hunter is working on um turning that 311 00:26:36,799 --> 00:26:42,240 into an all-wheel park and that there's a lot of behind the-scenes work in terms 312 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:47,520 of insurance and code and uh would love an overview of that when the designs 313 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:51,039 come back to us. Uh, so with that said, um, I always have fun at the clubhouse. 314 00:26:49,039 --> 00:26:54,960 We always, we already talked about that. And then just a tip of the hat to staff 315 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:58,960 with the new evening events and particularly combining them with the 316 00:26:56,240 --> 00:27:03,520 date night drop off. I think that's a great new opportunity and thank you for 317 00:27:01,039 --> 00:27:08,440 doing that. Uh, that's all I have. >> Very well. Thank you, Vice Chair 318 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,440 Lancaster. 319 00:27:11,679 --> 00:27:18,080 » Thank you, Chair Burton.

The first meeting 333 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:23,120 we had a little leak issue at our home. So we were lucky enough to have somebody 334 00:28:20,799 --> 00:28:29,840 fix that. Attended the second meeting and also attended the March 3rd meeting 335 00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:33,760 last night. Uh and um we uh as Lorett as Commissioner Herren said attended our 336 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:39,520 second pray committee meeting this past Monday. Uh it's kind of a triple header 337 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:45,840 the first week of every month. Uh we um I know the logo we chose a logo from we 338 00:28:41,679 --> 00:28:50,240 had like 16 uh people 16 logo designs so with participants we did choose one we 339 00:28:47,919 --> 00:28:54,880 don't have it to show tonight I think um Mrs. Hunter. Yes, we have to tweak it a 340 00:28:52,880 --> 00:29:00,640 little bit. Something with the dates also. Um but the theme this year is 341 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:06,240 celebrate country and community as um the my colleagues mentioned. It's the 342 00:29:02,559 --> 00:29:10,559 250 anniversary of the country and the 35th anniversary of the city of Lake 343 00:29:09,039 --> 00:29:15,840 Forest which I can't believe December 20th, 1991. So celebrate country and 344 00:29:13,279 --> 00:29:22,559 community and the logo that we picked is really really nice. So, you'll get to 345 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:29,760 see that um soon. Uh also want to thank you um deputy senior manager um McGovern 346 00:29:26,559 --> 00:29:35,039 uh about you know more um what's the word more um kind of 347 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:39,520 people knowing about the center I can't think of the right word just bringing 348 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:44,320 this beautiful ballroom I personally had my wedding reception there used both 349 00:29:41,039 --> 00:29:48,000 ballrooms and Miss Blein was there and uh Miss Herren 350 00:29:46,799 --> 00:29:53,200 I didn't know you guys at the time or you would have been there and um it's a 351 00:29:51,679 --> 00:29:57,679 little known. I invited a lot of people that lived in Lake Forest that had never 352 00:29:55,279 --> 00:30:01,360 had no idea that this facility was here and they were very happy to know that. 353 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:05,760 So, anything we can do to bring it more to light would be great. Uh it was a 354 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:13,120 fantastic wedding. Had so many comments about that. Um I was lucky enough to um 355 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:18,240 get a cancellation the day or like five o'clock at the last bunko. She called 356 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:24,080 and uh said, "We have one cancellation." And I said, "Sorry, I can't go without 357 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:27,919 my husband." So I said, "Give it away to somebody else." And just as I was about 358 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:32,159 to head home, she called me back and said, "I had another cancellation." So 359 00:30:29,679 --> 00:30:35,440 we got to go to Bono. I think my husband who's out there likes it more than I do. 360 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:41,039 I mean, I like it a lot, but he really likes it. So, um, I signed up. I'm ready 361 00:30:39,279 --> 00:30:44,000 for April. The first time I I usually have Loretta, Commissioner Herren, do 362 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:48,320 that for me, but I ran down to the sports park and, uh, got that. So, 363 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:52,159 anyway, so Bunko was great. So, thank you for providing that. I've heard about 364 00:30:49,919 --> 00:30:58,159 that from you, Commissioner Herren, and we are now we really like it. So, um 365 00:30:55,520 --> 00:31:01,840 again, congratulations, Mr. Fuentes, and thank you again, Tim, and you did a 366 00:30:59,679 --> 00:31:03,679 really, really fine job, Commissioner. Um, 367 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:09,120 » thank you. >> And with that, uh, oh, one last thing. 368 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:14,080 Is there any St. Patrick's Day u dance or party going on at the uh clubhouse, 369 00:31:12,399 --> 00:31:18,799 » Miss Buffin? We will have something the week of think 370 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:23,840 of um St. Patrick's Day. They're doing an 371 00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:27,600 extra probably an extra lunch that day. >> And by the way, thank you. I I mean it 372 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:32,320 goes without saying we appreciate everything you Mrs. Mrs. Hunter do. The 373 00:31:30,399 --> 00:31:37,440 seniors or the seniors are very lucky to have you in charge. 374 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:41,760 » Uh so I guess uh happy St. Patrick's Day and I think the next meeting is before 375 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:46,720 Easter. So right I think so. Okay. So happy St. Patrick's Day for all us Irish 376 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:50,960 folks and all us non-Irish folks. >> Very well. Thank you 377 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:57,600 » chair elect Lancaster and congratulations vice chair elect. 378 00:31:55,039 --> 00:32:02,320 All right. It has been a good year. Um yeah the ongoing success of the Lake 379 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:07,360 Forest Clubhouse has uh been highlighted today. So that's good. And then all the 380 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:12,559 holiday events we do every year. Uh so looking forward to this Fourth of July 381 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:18,720 parade and and uh everything that follows after that and uh you know the 382 00:32:15,919 --> 00:32:26,559 summer of family concerts and whatnot. So a couple of u things came up about I 383 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:30,240 just want to make note for maybe the deputy city manager. We didn't get a 384 00:32:28,799 --> 00:32:37,519 chat this week. I think I was out of town, but um it came to mind at the 385 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:46,320 brick laying a lot of uh military put their um deployments on there in 386 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:51,919 military lingo and they'll say OAF, OEF, ODS in all these letters that people 387 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:57,760 don't understand. And so during the event, I was interpreting what that 388 00:32:54,559 --> 00:33:03,679 meant. And I was thinking that it might be good to have a brick that showed a 389 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:11,200 glossery of some sort to say DS is Desert Storm, OAF, Operation Iraqi 390 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:16,240 Freedom. Um, OEF, you know, and and D was a was after me. So that was in 2010. 391 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:22,559 It was a New Dawn, Operation New Dawn. It was the 20 It was the close out of of 392 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:28,320 Iraq. I was I left in '09. So we handed it off to those guys. But um so it it 393 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:32,799 was kind of interesting that that would help be helpful perhaps and it would 394 00:33:30,559 --> 00:33:38,000 just take a brick, you know, so in the top left corner perhaps or something to 395 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:43,039 to distinguish that. So um just want to get that out of the way. Um 396 00:33:40,559 --> 00:33:47,760 what else was I going to uh as far as uh participation? Uh they just this 397 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:52,080 afternoon or this evening at five o'clock there was a social networking 398 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:56,720 interactive workshop across the way. I went over to and uh checked in there 399 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:59,760 with the uh Lake Forest Chamber. They the Lake Forest Chamber is very active. 400 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:05,200 Everyone knows they have a lot of events. It's great to attend them. They 401 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:10,480 talked about their Wednesday uh networking at a Pou Loco at 8:00 in 402 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:15,359 the morning. So, I guess they're serving coffee at El Poo Loco. Um 403 00:34:13,679 --> 00:34:19,440 usually they don't open till noon, but nonetheless, that's available if 404 00:34:17,679 --> 00:34:24,480 everyone's interested in going to a Lake Forest Chamber event. As far as the city 405 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:32,000 events now, the I did attend a couple the um Etnney skate park concept design 406 00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:36,159 brief, which was impressive. The uh the the 407 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:41,760 depth and knowledge that these skaters have is is pretty phenomenal. And to uh 408 00:34:40,079 --> 00:34:46,320 echo Commissioner Jones's comments that I 409 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:52,320 made had a comment that they would like to draw new Olympic level athletes for a 410 00:34:49,359 --> 00:34:58,560 qualifier park. That that was a great I they so you know these guys are coming 411 00:34:54,639 --> 00:35:05,200 up with ideas. Um I learned what a pump track versus a cradle was. So there you 412 00:35:01,599 --> 00:35:09,359 go in China banks and Venice curve. So bring it. you know, I'm not going to be 413 00:35:07,520 --> 00:35:14,160 out there, but I learned that stuff. Um, I did 414 00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:18,640 appreciate the weather effects. You know, they getting because I did go out 415 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:23,839 there um right after it rained and they were having to scrape the water out. The 416 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:27,520 gentleman said it took them a couple hours every time it rains to clean the 417 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:33,280 place up. So, that was that was going to be an easy fix. Um, sun blindless, put 418 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:39,599 up some um sun sales or whatever. You know, they had great ideas all around. 419 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:43,440 um to uh improve the park, but it it's uh I'm looking forward to how that comes 420 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:49,920 out as well. But that was a good event. Um also regular at the bingo. Of course, 421 00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:55,680 I didn't miss this uh this Thursday, which the mayor noted. I didn't take an 422 00:35:52,480 --> 00:36:00,560 attendance over there, but the wasn't there. And I I was missed my son's 423 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:09,520 birthday. We were in Austin. Not a good weekend to go to Austin, by the way. Uh 424 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:15,440 but anyway, I got to Austin and back. So that being said, um yeah, looking 425 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:22,240 forward to the Kavanaaugh park next year. You can lead us uh chair elect and 426 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:30,079 uh get that park built up in a in a wonderful way. Um there was one other 427 00:36:25,119 --> 00:36:36,960 little comment now that the and uh see commut city commissioner 428 00:36:33,839 --> 00:36:45,359 McGovern. It someone brought it up to me at an event about um the restroom doors 429 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:53,280 at El Toro Park and the park over off of Dylan, which the name 430 00:36:49,119 --> 00:36:58,079 town from Veterans. Um what is it? Was it Mountain View? Yeah. Apparently, 431 00:36:56,240 --> 00:37:04,160 that's the one where we we had discussed the restroom doors were being ripped off 432 00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:09,520 and and damaged and whatnot. And so then some temporary ones were put on without 433 00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:14,160 locks and things. So I I started putting a couple things together which may or 434 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:19,200 may not make sense. But now we have security. Would it be possible to 435 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:24,960 readress fixing the things that have been consistently damaged in the past? I 436 00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:29,760 know we had to forego that because it was always good. It was just not worth 437 00:37:26,720 --> 00:37:34,320 our uh investment. But now I'm foreseeing maybe more security. So that 438 00:37:32,160 --> 00:37:35,599 might be a a direction to go. >> Yeah. 439 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:39,520 » Say at the >> Yeah, that's actually part of the reason 440 00:37:36,720 --> 00:37:43,520 why we hired security is those restroom doors were 441 00:37:41,599 --> 00:37:46,960 just over at So some of the restroom doors are locked. Some of the restroom 442 00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:53,040 doors just aren't there anymore. There's like a almost like a shaded fence in 443 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:57,440 front of those doors. All of that is due to the security issues at those 444 00:37:54,880 --> 00:38:01,520 properties. So, our hope is that with added security patrols 445 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:05,040 um soon to be a combination of those 446 00:38:03,119 --> 00:38:10,720 patrols with camera equipment at those sites, we hope um we are trying to beef 447 00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:15,520 up and secure that property so that we can get back to, you know, your regular 448 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:19,440 doors or something that looks more presentable and and and inviting than 449 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:23,920 what's there now, >> right? So, more on that soon, but I I 450 00:38:21,599 --> 00:38:28,720 think we do have to kind of secure those properties first and see how things go. 451 00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:35,839 The cost of the vandalism at those sites, it was just um it was too high to 452 00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:40,560 to keep them open. So, we got to get the security situation a little bit under 453 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:44,560 control over there first and then and then look into 454 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:48,400 to kind of what you're talking about. >> Excellent. Then, that's pretty much what 455 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:52,880 I told him. I said, "We're not there yet. We were just introducing security 456 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:57,359 because we had discussed it and then the process of doing that but uh there were 457 00:38:55,599 --> 00:39:02,320 videos and pictures and things and I didn't want those to hit social media 458 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:07,359 without anyone knowing and and to kind of get on the record that yeah we are 459 00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:11,920 going forward with the a process and uh yeah security was the 460 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:16,000 first thing because there's no point in continuously fixing these things when 461 00:39:13,599 --> 00:39:22,480 they're just going to be broken the next week. So excellent. Um, I'm glad we uh 462 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:29,200 we're all synced up on that and I believe that's all I have. Are there any 463 00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:34,640 last comments as suspected? Go ahead. >> Thank you chair chair going to miss you 464 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:37,760 have such a great sense of humor but you can still do it that from the other 465 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:43,520 chair as well. >> Uh first of all um who doesn't get a lot 466 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:47,839 of praise is our commission secretary. Madam Krisha, thank you for our new 467 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:51,200 badges. All you don't know, I think most of us know I was there when they 468 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:56,400 actually chose us the new logo. Thank you for always taking care of us. And a 469 00:39:53,760 --> 00:40:00,720 little plug again praising the Lake Forest Chamber of Commerce, Mary 470 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:05,839 Viscante, who was just um I remember I was at she when she came to the first 471 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:09,200 meeting when the city was the Lake Forest Chamber used to be part of the 472 00:40:07,119 --> 00:40:12,960 regional chamber of commerce, part of a big group. And I remember when we broke 473 00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:18,000 away, there was an ad hoc committee. He was uh council member Tedimer, former 474 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:23,440 assistant city manager David Belmer, former economic development Jessica 475 00:40:19,920 --> 00:40:28,320 Gonzalez uh and uh Mr. Late Richard Dixon. Uh we were starting a chamber. 476 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:34,160 Mary showed up at that and she's just taken the ball and run with it and she's 477 00:40:30,720 --> 00:40:38,960 just runs now the CEO of the chamber. So it's a little plug. Uh, Tuesday, March 478 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:42,480 31st is the annual Meet the Mayor, which is one of the chamber's signature 479 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:46,400 events, which not that the other events aren't important, but it's a signature 480 00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:52,320 event, and it's on a Tuesday, March 31st, right here at our beautiful 481 00:40:49,599 --> 00:40:57,760 U civic center. Uh, the beginning part will be, you know, uh, food and, you 482 00:40:54,640 --> 00:41:02,079 know, little greeting hour and then the last, I believe, from 7 to 8, we'll come 483 00:40:59,359 --> 00:41:06,960 into here and, uh, Mayor Penyon will do his state of the city with a video. So, 484 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:12,240 uh, get your tickets. They go fast. So, you can go to the Lake Forest, um, 485 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:16,800 Chamber of Commerce website and buy your tickets. It's a really nice evening and 486 00:41:14,560 --> 00:41:21,599 really be informed by the mayor of what's going on and hope to see you all 487 00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:26,720 there. And I think that's it. Thank you. >> All right. Very well. Thank you. And, 488 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:29,280 uh, Commissioner Fuentes, did you have a save round? 489 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:34,400 » Yes. The, and you guys kind of already addressed it. I think the Anie skate 490 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:39,040 park um, I went to the I attended the one online. Um, and then I had my 491 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:42,960 neighbors are all they're have we have they have two little kids and they go to 492 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:48,560 the skate park almost like two three times a week. They love it. Um, and my 493 00:41:46,319 --> 00:41:52,240 son likes to ride a scooter and you guys already talked about it how having 494 00:41:50,240 --> 00:41:55,839 scooters also skateboarding and then rollerblading. Having it all kind of 495 00:41:54,079 --> 00:41:58,800 come together I think is awesome. So that was my one thing. So you guys are 496 00:41:57,760 --> 00:42:06,079 already doing it. Thank you. >> You'll enjoy the pump truck. Yeah. Use 497 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:09,359 the terminology. Okay. So that with that this meeting is now adjourned. The 498 00:42:08,079 --> 00:42:14,880 community services commission will reconvene for its regularly next 499 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:21,480 scheduled meeting on Wednesday April 8th when chairman Lancaster will be taking 500 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:21,480 over.
