[5:15]
And the council member who is supposed to lead the letter of allegiance, eating inside, and I just want to let you know that what happened right now.
[5:24]
So, sorry for what happened.
[5:27]
Next is, I just want to thank Council Member Minzo and also Vice Mayor for the salute to
[5:35]
the flag and the invocation.
[5:38]
Next is the attorney for the closed session report, please.
[5:50]
Okay, yes, there was one item on the closed session agenda which concerned the potential
[5:55]
initiation of litigation on, and the Council had a discussion on this.
[6:01]
Council Member, Councilwoman West, and Council Member Nampun, when we're absent during this discussion.
[6:08]
They were aware of the item, but we're not present.
[6:11]
On a motion made by Vice Mayor Kimberley Ho, and seconded by Council Member Monzo, the author
[6:17]
is the hiring of outside Council to file with the court to seek a civil and junctive order
[6:23]
against Council Member Amy Fan West, and Council Member Nampun, when the injunction would seek
[6:29]
to require the following that they defer to the mayor's role as chair of the meeting, require
[6:33]
them to follow Robert's rules of order.
[6:36]
Don't speak unless you have been given the floor to speak, stop speaking when your time
[6:40]
is up.
[6:40]
Don't interrupt when someone else has the floor.
[6:43]
Don't take phone calls and speak to live stream during council meetings.
[6:47]
Don't do any other activity that unresonably interferes with the ability of other council members
[6:52]
to conduct their role during council meetings, including that not limited to recording from
[6:56]
during meetings if it reasonably interferes with other council members.
[7:00]
And to seek fines if they violate the court order, and that fines and penalties issued
[7:05]
by the court would be payable by those council members personally, and that the council
[7:09]
is part of their motion made it clear that the city would not pay for any legal representation
[7:14]
to defend those two council members in this matter.
[7:17]
There's nothing further to report.
[7:20]
City Attorney, I want to make a statement to that,
[7:29]
so I just got an email from Christian
[7:36]
this evening, so let me read to you.
[7:42]
So I got an email from Christian because I asked what's on the closed session item and he mentioned that he wants to let me know that the closed session item is basically talking about this is what he said.
[7:57]
The mayor asked for this close session item to be added for today's close session.
[8:03]
He's requesting permission to have the city hire an outside attorney,
[8:08]
which is using the taxpayer money,
[8:10]
who would file for the court to seek a civil injunction against you
[8:14]
and Namguang, Bush's Amy Phan West and Namguang.
[8:18]
A court order that would require you to follow the rule of the council meeting
[8:22]
when it comes to speaking.
[8:24]
In other words, to tell you, you must listen to the mayor and only talk when he say it's your turn and to stop talking when he say you must stop.
[8:34]
Now, I send him a text message afterwards saying, Christian, thank you for letting me know what the close session will be on.
[8:42]
I will not be attending the close session because what the mayor request is unconstitutional violating my first amendment and it's illegal.
[8:51]
So with that, myself, I did not attend for that reason because I will stand by the people
[8:57]
and the people deserve to know if you're going to hire, using the people's money to
[9:01]
hire an outside turn it to politically attack your colleagues in District 1 and 2, Councilwoman
[9:10]
Amy Fanwess and Namquang, the people deserve to know and they should have a say in it.
[9:15]
So that's the reason why I did not go to close session tonight.
[9:19]
Thank you. Thank you. And I personally think Vice Mayor and also council member Manzo for motion and second on this items.
[9:32]
I think it's indeed that we need to have that. We don't have to do this if we don't have the chaos in our city council meeting, but unfortunately we have to proceed with this way.
[9:43]
So I appreciate for you for you both motion and second on that and we have other that order passed
[9:51]
Thank you very much next is export communication if there is any
[9:57]
We are not going to discuss this in our so please you have
[10:00]
So next is export communication. Is there anything from the diast? Hearing none, seeing none, so I want to move on with the city clerk report, please.
[10:12]
I'm walking in an item, city attorney knows that.
[10:15]
Right, yes, so that was something you had mentioned. I think there was a request to walk an item.
[10:20]
Oh, well, is it?
[10:23]
Well, I haven't heard anything yet.
[10:25]
you have because city attorney talked to you and you told me to be brief. Mayor, you
[10:32]
told me not to tell me to be brief only have 30 seconds to talk about a walk if you
[10:38]
want to.
[10:39]
I don't like the public.
[10:42]
So now what is my second?
[10:44]
No, I haven't heard.
[10:47]
No, I haven't heard anything from this light from the beginning to now.
[10:51]
So the mayor, you can continue to lie to the people go ahead.
[10:54]
I'm walking in an item because it's urgent, please.
[10:57]
Please just continue to make your vote.
[10:59]
So can I walk in an item?
[11:02]
Okay.
[11:03]
Go ahead.
[11:04]
What item did you want to work on?
[11:06]
So I'm walking in an urgent item because of what's happening with the mobile home parts.
[11:11]
The redevelopment.
[11:12]
I'm okay with the mixed use redevelopment in our city to redevelop to beautify our city.
[11:18]
I'm all okay with that.
[11:19]
But now when on the map that you guys voted on September 11th to pass through without discussing or asking the resident and homeowner in the mobile home part that overlap those mixed use and rezoning area that is unacceptable the people should always have a say the landlord that the homeowner and the resident should always have a say so what I'm proposing is a
[11:46]
as a solution should be craft up to state that the city will never do eminent domain on those
[11:54]
mobile home park area because those mobile home people who live there are on a fixed income
[12:01]
and they're usually senior citizens and they don't have the income to rent another home or buy
[12:07]
another home in Orange County because if you think about it every home in Orange County is what
[12:12]
million dollars right now. And where would those senior citizens or people who are less fortunate
[12:19]
or low income would would be living in or where would they buy a home at in Orange County?
[12:25]
So basically they will be displaced. And so my resolution is to have city craftsmen or what
[12:32]
they do. That's what I just said. So I ask the city to craft up a resolution stating that we
[12:39]
would not do eminent domain over those mobile home parts in the city of Westminster.
[12:45]
Because I know Mr. Mayor, you always mentioned that you care, can really end
[12:49]
Monza as well, you care for the mobile home park, people, and that you, you are concerned
[12:56]
for them.
[12:57]
So I think this is of your interest as well to protect them.
[13:00]
So the request is that you would walk an item onto the agenda to craft a resolution that
[13:07]
You would never do that on a domain on mobile home parks.
[13:10]
Yes, for all the reasons that you stated.
[13:13]
In order to walk an item onto the agenda,
[13:15]
it has to be something that arose after the agenda was posted.
[13:18]
Exactly.
[13:19]
And that it has to be of sufficient urgency that actually
[13:22]
needs to be taken tonight.
[13:24]
So a four-fist of the Council would have to vote
[13:27]
to walk an item on.
[13:29]
And so with that, is that something the Council is going to...
[13:33]
I have my second nap on.
[13:36]
I have no book in second.
[13:38]
I have no book in second.
[13:38]
I have a book in second.
[13:39]
I have a book in second.
[13:39]
I have a book in second.
[13:41]
Yes, I have a book.
[13:43]
And you want to speak?
[13:44]
No, I just find it funny that she has to speak for councilmember Wayne.
[13:50]
And he has the ability to speak for himself.
[13:54]
Yeah, I thought I got to say.
[13:55]
Okay.
[13:56]
Thank you.
[13:57]
Let me be clear to everyone of you.
[14:00]
When I heard that these two cows are going to put in the item.
[14:05]
the urgency item. You heard it from the city attorney, that has to be urgency.
[14:13]
But that is the only one part of the reason for working in. The second reason I ask him,
[14:22]
I ask the attorney, are we going against state law for putting this item on?
[14:28]
Because state laws saying that the imminent or domain shouldn't be the local suit of being to the state law.
[14:37]
Understand, there are farms that we can go differently.
[14:41]
But if there is a Pacific case, then we can do it.
[14:44]
But then I ask him, whatever it is, I want you to pay it.
[14:48]
And he said that, you know, it's not going anywhere.
[14:52]
But they have the right to put a request.
[14:54]
And I said, I don't want to spend 50-10-15 minutes on it, I asked to argue about this one.
[15:00]
So I want you to make sure that they understand and I want you to recommend it to them, not to bring it in and I want to ask you that you convey that message to them.
[15:12]
Yes, I did.
[15:13]
Okay, so I, as long as you convey the message and they continue to do this, then it's their part, then right now go ahead and call for the vote.
[15:22]
Mr. Mayor, thank you for that.
[15:24]
No problem.
[15:25]
We call for the word.
[15:26]
You have to request.
[15:27]
We are not discussing the item until we approve what to bring it in or not.
[15:32]
So at this time, go ahead and move on with the roll call for please.
[15:36]
Thank you, Mayor.
[15:37]
Much of us made by Councilwoman Fenwetz.
[15:38]
Seconded by Councilwoman Fenwetz.
[15:40]
To direct staff to prepare a resolution that states that the city will not do an
[15:43]
amendment domain for the reason stated by Councilwoman Fenwetz.
[15:47]
Against mobile home parks within the community.
[15:49]
I've got a call for roll.
[15:50]
Councilman Fenwes, fan was, yes, Councilman Romando.
[15:55]
For the record, I didn't hear the Councilmember Wayne's second name.
[16:00]
Councilmember, was second in for him.
[16:02]
He did.
[16:04]
I think he just spoke for himself.
[16:06]
Maybe you should listen to Mr. Monzo.
[16:08]
My board is no.
[16:11]
Councilmember Wayne?
[16:13]
Yes.
[16:14]
Vice Mayor, help?
[16:17]
Yes, I'd like to say before I vote, I'd like to say that.
[16:20]
we've, you know, this is another way for them to grant stand
[16:24]
themselves.
[16:25]
I really don't believe Amy found was understand anything
[16:28]
about imminent domain or her job on the council.
[16:33]
So I think that, you know, if we can stop using letting her
[16:37]
allow her to use this fear tactic, you don't understand what it
[16:40]
takes to, you know, go that route and take someone's land.
[16:44]
We don't intend to do that.
[16:46]
We don't intend to do that.
[16:47]
Now, please, we don't discuss it right now.
[16:49]
You're not the mayor, okay?
[16:52]
Okay.
[16:52]
My favorite is the job right now.
[16:55]
You're not the mayor, okay?
[16:57]
So, we are not.
[16:58]
You're not the mayor.
[16:59]
It's just in right now.
[17:00]
Be quiet, please.
[17:01]
Okay, go ahead and vote for it, please.
[17:02]
I said no, Mayor Win.
[17:05]
Okay, well, before I vote,
[17:06]
I want to make sure you clear about it.
[17:09]
When I talk to the CEO 20,
[17:12]
and that's what I have him convey the message to the council.
[17:15]
just not to bring it in, but then from there I haven't talked to him.
[17:22]
So you and I haven't heard that at this meeting they bring it in and they want to have the
[17:27]
urgency item and see call me I'm lying to the public that's not I was not lying to the
[17:33]
public because I don't know if you request to have the item to bring in then you need to
[17:45]
No, motion failed to three.
[17:47]
Thank you.
[17:49]
Next is city manager report please.
[17:56]
Mayor, if I can go ahead and do my report first.
[17:59]
Did I ask for the city court report?
[18:01]
No, no, no. Sorry about that yet, please.
[18:03]
Thank you, Mayor. We do have communications in front of you for items 5.2 regarding the attachment for council to consider tonight.

[26:12]
The next one is the presentation of recognizing for festival sponsors and department hands.
[26:22]
The 2024 fall festival was tremendous success.
[26:28]
As your mayor, I am so proud of the spirit
[26:32]
and unity it has brought to our great city.
[26:37]
We are honored this evening to recognize our sponsor
[26:41]

[26:46]
Your contributions play a vital role
[26:49]
in making the festival possible, and it shows your commitment to the power of community
[26:57]
and coming together to showcase our spirit and pride.

[27:11]
I am truly grateful for your continued partnership.
[27:16]
And, additionally, I like to take a moment to thank our great staff.
[27:23]
This year, every department was represented throughout the entire festival, and they
[27:29]
event would not have been successful without the collaboration of the community service
[27:36]
department, public works, department, and police department.
[27:42]
Why don't we put our hands together for out fantastic stuff,
[27:53]
thank you very much.
[27:56]
I was there for the whole four days, and I know how much that they have to go through.
[28:00]
And I know that some of you have been there for the whole four days, four festival.
[28:06]
I understand that last year, the year before last, we have only one day.
[28:11]
Last year we extended three days.
[28:13]
We still think that is more need to be done.
[28:17]
So we extended four days.
[28:18]
I was joking with the community, the director,
[28:22]
the service director, I said, well, next year,
[28:25]
we are going to do it five days or the whole week.
[28:28]
And I don't think that it can handle it.
[28:31]
But anyway, thank you very much, Vanessa.
[28:32]
Thank you very much for your hard work and your team, too.
[28:36]

We try to teach our kids to get back to the community, preserving their culture and promoting
[42:09]
their culture.
[42:11]
But, oh, why are we going down from title to platinum?
[42:15]
You guys need to get together, okay?
[42:18]
If you all work well together, we will go back to the highest
[42:23]
sponsorship.
[42:24]
How's that?
[42:26]
That's how we teach our kids 20 years old now.
[42:32]
They be in your shoes and you need to lead by example.
[42:36]
That's how it's going to work.
[42:39]

I'll just repeat a little bit about what I said at the last council meeting,

To community services and recreation you came out as well. Let's see the family resource center came out and
[44:58]
The majority of our
[45:00]
City council members came out as well to events that we had for a walk-and-roll safely to school event.
[45:08]

[45:11]
We build this energy together, and I really appreciate that.
[45:14]
So thank you to all of you.
[45:17]

[49:44]
All right. So, let me say something.
[49:47]
I am the marketing director of United Employment Solutions on behalf of United Employment Solutions.
[49:53]
We want to say thank you for the honor to support your community.
[49:57]
Thank you so much.
[50:11]
I think this is a special one, right? This is very special. This is very special. And as I read earlier, this is the ticket of recognition presented to Ashton Orojo, MC, in recognition of your hard work and dedication as newly appointed city clerks, department, president of the League of Cows cities. This time, I would like to ask our staff, the city manager, the city assistant manager, and department has, can you join us?
[50:40]
over here for this special occasion with Pinchablies.
[51:02]
I know how he's a surprise that I asked them, so they're not prepared.
[51:21]
Thank you, Mayor, and members of the City Council, as well as our department head team and
[51:26]
to be staff for supporting me and for inspiring me to continue to mentor and motivate those
[51:34]
who are coming up in the City Clerk profession.
[51:36]
Thank you again.
[51:38]
Thank you very much.
[51:39]
It's all a pleasure.
[51:40]
Thank you.
[51:41]
Thank you.
[51:41]
Thank you very much.
[51:42]
I think that's it, right?
[51:43]
Thank you very much.
[51:44]
Thank you for your patient also.
[51:57]
We'll continue without our meeting.
[52:21]
Again, we want to thank our sponsors sponsor, you know, our four festival event.
[52:30]
And I hope that you can sponsor us next year, even more.
[52:35]
Like I said from the last meeting, beginning of the last meeting and continuing future meetings,
[52:44]
I will make sure that I will have a break in between so that Council can take a break,
[52:52]
and also you can also take a break.
[52:55]
So with that, I will later on take a recess for the meeting, and I ask all the Council members
[53:03]
please stay at the meeting until we have the recess.
[53:10]
The second thing is I want to thank you all,
[53:13]
each and every of you for being here tonight.
[53:16]
I know there are a lot of things that a lot of commitment,
[53:19]
there are not a lot of the responsibility duties at home,
[53:23]
but you choose to be here this evening,
[53:26]
just because you care for the city.
[53:29]
I truly believe that you care for the city,
[53:33]
that's why I used to spend time here hours and hours here
[53:37]
to attend a meeting and to give to voice your opinions.
[53:40]
So appreciate on behalf of the city, council and city staff.
[53:45]
We really appreciate for your time.
[53:49]
With that, I also want to clarify something.
[53:52]
There are so many people misunderstanding that,
[53:55]
you know, they were out there saying that the meeting
[53:58]
for the city of West Virginia took like 13 hours.
[54:01]
I know it was a record at one time, but remember the 13 hours meeting basically combined of the two meetings together.
[54:12]
Remember the meeting before that?
[54:14]
I have because of the disruption.
[54:17]
I have to achieve the meeting before.
[54:19]
And we couldn't get that much done, city business done.
[54:24]
And it's carry over to the next meeting.
[54:26]
And for the next meeting, I don't want it's carry continue to carry over, so I want to make sure that we do see our business.
[54:35]
And I certainly like our official, we have to stay until it's done.
[54:39]
We will do that. That's why it took 13 hours.
[54:42]
But that's not only the reason alone, with the infighting from the council, it make matter worse.
[54:48]
That's why it's it's 13 hours.
[54:50]
And I want to make sure about that because today, one of the YouTube I view is unfortunate.
[55:00]
It came out from our council saying that, you know, trying to slam at me that, you know, I don't know how to run the meeting and have the meeting run for 13 hours, and they know for the fact why that was it is.
[55:15]
So I want to clarify that. So if from now on people said that, why the city was means they took the 13 hour meeting, you know that we actually do two meeting in one.
[55:25]
Okay. Thank you.
[55:27]
Uh, next is,
[55:33]
uh,
[55:36]
uh, yes, I understand our communication, but I think I have one here that
[55:39]
I want to, uh, okay, I like, before we go on with the oral, oral communication, and this
[55:47]
is, I want to make sure that, uh, for oral communication, this is for agenda is item only, uh,
[55:55]
And if you are speaking non-Agent, non-Agent item, please wait until the, the time, the calm, when I say the time that calm is not at the end of the meeting for this meeting.
[56:08]
I understand that we took a lot of time that we have to do the presentation, which I think we, we all power of that, but I will try to move the meeting.
[56:22]
the item to come before the public hearing items.
[56:31]
So be patient with that from that.
[56:34]
So at this time, before I ask Madam Clerk
[56:37]
to read the instruction into the record,
[56:40]
I just want to mention that we have the policy
[56:42]
and the policy is in, I think it's post right here
[56:45]
and outside, and it's also mentioned
[56:47]
in the agenda as a package, a gender package, so if you have any question about it, please
[56:55]
take a look at that and I ask you to be politely and treat everyone closely and also make sure
[57:05]
that if you need to refrain from any profanity because we have our younger children, high school
[57:15]
student. They also follow this meeting just to make sure that we don't want to have that impression on them.
[57:24]
Please, I understand there are some Vietnamese people here and they also I believe as first time our second time attend this meeting. Please allow me to speak in Vietnamese for a few minutes on this.
[58:37]
over the two minutes and you can't have enough time to translate it your fault.
[58:43]
I'm not going to extend any second after that, so it's not time to speak at this time.
[58:51]
So you can speak during the time that you are for public comment, please.
[58:58]
No, no, thank you, no thank you.
[59:01]
So at this time, I would like to open up for the oral communication so see the clerk and you read
[59:06]
into the record please.
[59:08]
Thank you, Mayor.
[59:08]
This is the time of the meeting that members of the public may address the City Council
[59:12]

[59:59]
Good evening, Kelsey.
[1:00:00]
Council, it's an honor to be here. First off, I want to say thank you to our big brother, POA, for letting
[1:00:07]
us talk along with them and work inside, side by side together in supporting the fall
[1:00:13]
festival. So I'll be talking about item 5.4. So thank you, Mayor. Thank you, City Council.
[1:00:21]
Dear City of Westminster Community Services, I hope this letter finds you well on behalf of the
[1:00:29]
I would like to extend our heartfelt thanks for your ongoing commitment to enhancing our community.
[1:00:36]
Your dedication and hard work do not go unnoticed and we are proud to partner with you in serving our residents.
[1:00:42]
We are especially thrilled that we were able to sponsor this year's fall festival.
[1:00:47]
This event is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate our vibrant community and we are excited to contribute to a success.
[1:00:54]
Supporting local events like the fall festival not only brings our residents together, but also
[1:00:59]
fosters a sense of unity and pride in Westminster.
[1:01:03]
At the Westminster Municipal Employee Association, we believe in giving back to our community
[1:01:08]
that we serve.
[1:01:10]
It is through initiatives like the fall festival that we can truly make a difference in the lives
[1:01:15]
of our fellow residents.
[1:01:16]
Thank you once again for all that you do, and we look forward to sponsoring next year's
[1:01:22]
as well alongside of a POA. Thank you for having us work together for the betterment of our community.
[1:01:30]
Thank you.
[1:01:36]
Our next speaker is Kyle Cisach, followed by JGVO.
[1:01:43]
Good evening Mayor, Vice Mayor, Council.
[1:01:47]
Thank you for that nice presentation. That was beautiful.
[1:01:49]
So thank you very much.
[1:01:51]
It was an honor to be able to partner with our counterparts over at WMEA and sponsor the fall festival.
[1:01:57]
So, I've come up here many times in the past and I've talked about our city leadership and how great our leadership is going forward and how important it is to keep that leadership and I think the full festival was a perfect example of that.
[1:02:10]
We've had numerous community events in the recent past and each event has gotten better and better and that's testament to the great work that these folks are putting forth day and day out. Not only the weekend of, because as you mentioned, there's people here, 16, 20 hours a day to make this thing work.
[1:02:26]
but all the behind-the-scenes work that was done
[1:02:29]
by our city staff was nothing short of amazing.
[1:02:33]
So we just wanted to say thank you for allowing us
[1:02:35]
to be a part of it, we were honored to be a part of it
[1:02:37]
and it was absolutely gorgeous.
[1:02:39]
So everybody did a great job and we look forward
[1:02:42]
to the event coming up on Friday
[1:02:44]
that we're going to be a part of.
[1:02:45]
So we hope to see everybody there.
[1:02:47]
And like I said, the biggest thing is the amount
[1:02:49]
of community engagement that we're now getting
[1:02:51]
at these events is huge.
[1:02:53]
So we couldn't be happier to be a part of it.
[1:02:55]
So thank you guys very much.
[1:02:56]
Our
[1:03:04]
next speaker is G.G.Vo, followed by Monique Nguyen.

Hi, well, I would like to speak in support of agenda item 9.2.
[1:09:14]
It's about time to see the city as a subject to gình errone to control an Audrey
[1:09:19]

[1:10:00]
Council member Amy and I'm Juan. Council member Amy, why are you still trying to promote fake news
[1:10:09]
from the meeting on September 11 to the meeting on October 9 to the special meeting on October
[1:10:17]
14 to the press release officially from the city. To the letters addressing the facts to the
[1:10:25]
home residents. We all understand perfectly Mr. Joe Zepnall, Council member Amy, and I'm
[1:10:33]
one ill-intentioned just to get people's vote. They do not care about the impact of their
[1:10:41]
fake news had on mobile homes residents. They are so cruel and unethical in any way when they
[1:10:55]
me a number one care for themselves and themselves alone. We continue, you continue to
[1:11:03]
mislead the residents on the wide presenting you care. What a bunch of croquette council member
[1:11:13]
Amy and number one and council candidate. Please don't help them. Please vote for Mark Nguyen in
[1:11:21]
three and relay council member Carlos Mendoff what is three two. Thank you.
[1:11:36]
Our next speaker is Ben Colver and Gia followed by Wade Ernetto.
[1:11:46]
Thank you Mayor council members. Item 9.1, fake news and fake press conferences that we keep having outside the city council chambers here.
[1:11:56]
What we have got used to see is two council members will either show up at those and take part in them when they're supposed to be in here and a closed session.
[1:12:10]
Start mandating city permits for these individuals that go out here and spew their BS to the residents of Westminster, specifically those residents will only have Vietnamese language skills.
[1:12:26]
They stand out here, they spread this stuff, it scares everybody that don't understand what's going on.
[1:12:34]
And I'd like to see these people have to take out a permit and pee a fee.
[1:12:40]
And it doesn't have to be anything big, it can be $25 for a permit.
[1:12:45]
If somebody else has a function in the city, don't you make them get permits for those functions?
[1:12:50]
especially this things on city property and generally the people that are out there are not
[1:12:57]
city employees. Only the two council members who join in this non-Sense outside are city
[1:13:03]
employees. Secondly, by the way, they're only interested in undermining the rest of the council
[1:13:10]
and bringing disrespect onto this city. 9.2 pass the ordinance. Establishing the rules of the
[1:13:20]
for the mayor in council.
[1:13:23]
This council has only two members.
[1:13:26]
And I'm not going to answer names
[1:13:27]
because it's Amy and Non-Quan,
[1:13:31]
but they're the ones creating the havoc and disrespect
[1:13:34]
in these city council meetings.
[1:13:36]
Those of us who sit in here,
[1:13:38]
as well as those who either watch it later on on YouTube
[1:13:42]
or they watch it live, they know what's going on.
[1:13:46]
And they see the shouting and screaming back and forth
[1:13:49]
and then the two of them will sit there and smirk at one another,
[1:13:53]
because they're being coached to do this.
[1:13:56]
There's other people that are elected officials
[1:13:59]
and prior elected officials of this council
[1:14:02]
that are coaching these two morons.
[1:14:06]
This has got to stop.
[1:14:08]
I am so glad to find out that this was in closed session
[1:14:12]
and there will finally be something done
[1:14:14]
about decorum in these meetings.
[1:14:17]
all they're trying to do is destroy the council's ability to run the city in a proper manner.
[1:14:25]
They don't care. It's all for their own self-interest and their own self-promotion.
[1:14:33]
Again, perfect example. Amy's pet dog over here has been gone. How long now?
[1:14:40]
And how many meetings now that this guy does this? Why are we paying him?
[1:14:44]
We're wasting tax dollars on him.
[1:14:55]
Our next speaker is played on Edo, followed by a win-hung.
[1:15:08]
Tên là hệ, tôi hoàn vào ủng hộ, chính chấm hai, Mỹ VN-Mì năm quan cần phải được đưa vào đúng vị kí của họ.

[1:17:22]
Nhi viên emy lần người thiếu hiểu biết đến mức không còn nhân tờ nào dành cho bà ta.
[1:17:28]
Bà ta tiếp tục tuyên bố rằng bà ta đã dành cho cư dân địa hạt mục.
[1:17:32]
Nhưng tôi không thấy bà ta thực sự, lắng nghe và nói lần ý kiến của họ, cũng như những tiến nói của họ
[1:17:39]
Bà ta đã rắn nặng của thành phố của chúng ta khi bà ta không lắng nghe và chất dẫn xai làm của mình

[1:18:59]
I don't know how, after all these council meetings was staff
[1:19:02]
explaining facts about the strategic plan for the city.
[1:19:06]
Amy still tried to mislead the mobile home residents.
[1:19:09]
Amy thinks the mobile home residents are all ignorant
[1:19:11]
and easily believe in their horrible tactic during campaign season.
[1:19:16]
Numb clon and her co-host dosive know continued to spread fake news,
[1:19:20]
a Numb clon's trash network YouTube.
[1:19:23]
Their con nắp sơ, on ethical, and intolerable.
[1:19:26]
Untill one of the mobile home residents has a heart attack or stroke.
[1:19:30]
Well, then they be happy, is that it?
[1:19:32]
Councilmember Amy calls staff a liar during the October 9th meeting.
[1:19:37]
Now after the special meeting to re-affirm the facts about the city's strategic plan and the recent city's press release,
[1:19:43]
she still calls the city and the majority of Council are creating fake news.
[1:19:49]
She refused to listen to facts and chose to create her own version of what exactly happened.
[1:19:55]
Guக Hahn support bíamos to the fullest.
[1:19:57]
She represented
[1:20:00]
And just for one new residence, did I fail to see if she actually heard and spoke their opinions in their voice?
[1:20:06]
She is a liability to our city when she does not listen and accept her mistake and continues trying to mislead the mobile home residents.
[1:20:14]
I am sure her God does not even accept her and her lies. Thank you.
[1:20:22]
But before you call the next speakers, I have two things I want to mention.
[1:20:28]
Number one, for the reserve, I believe it's done if you want to move forward.
[1:20:33]
We can remove the reserve seat out of you.
[1:20:37]
Number two, I saw that there is a camera or in the front there, we need you to move through
[1:20:42]
the back.
[1:20:43]
I don't know who is that belong to, but I ask you to move with right now.
[1:20:47]
We have the policy that we could not have reserved the back row for you there.
[1:20:54]
Thank you.
[1:20:55]
Now you can call for the next speaker.
[1:20:58]
Thank you, Mayor.
[1:20:59]
Next speaker is when hung followed by Donald Lank.

[1:21:39]
Or do I can you wait a minute?
[1:21:41]
I'll take the money.

[1:21:51]
I send you a number of fire, everybody.
[1:21:54]

[1:21:56]
Do you need a step home?
[1:21:59]
About this, sir.

As a council, please, we change the refrain from doing anything.

[1:22:26]
Whatever.
[1:22:27]
It's your time.

So can you call next book and I put on my own, or are you already going to?
[1:22:33]
Yeah, you have to be ready for that.
[1:22:36]
Please.
[1:22:36]
Okay.
[1:22:37]
That's fine.
[1:22:38]
I remember what I wrote.
[1:22:40]
Thank you.
[1:22:41]
I'm not super like somebody else.
[1:22:44]
By the way, you know, how come I have only one minute?

Can you style?
[1:22:50]
You've been doing that.
[1:22:51]
I'm not doing that.
[1:22:52]
You've been speaking.
[1:22:53]
It's your three minutes already.
[1:22:58]
Okay, I don't know, you know, what did you say, you know, I received the letter, you know,
[1:23:02]
and I'm saying it at all today and I'm not the one, you say that the fake news, right?
[1:23:11]
I don't want you to know what the fake news is.
[1:23:14]
Maybe the term, you know, the English, I don't want to learn the English to say about what fake news.
[1:23:21]
Okay? You said, you know, maybe the person might fly, they say,
[1:23:27]

[1:23:34]
Here is the fact new, I want to show you, okay?
[1:23:40]
You meet way cities and
[1:23:43]
it to retreat.
[1:23:47]
And if you see a letter, I sent to Epic PC. So what do you do?
[1:23:54]
What do you do?

They're talking about fake news.
[1:24:02]
Okay, I come back.

So, you know, I want, you know, this is my suggestion.
[1:24:11]
The city sent a letter to on resident,
[1:24:16]
special, you know, a mobile home resident.
[1:24:18]
I planned, you know, is that a pipeline to on,
[1:24:24]

[1:25:29]
I'm Donald Link, orphaned constituent from District 1.
[1:25:39]
I'm here to speak in favor of agenda item 9.1, and the Rehearsal Rehearsal Act of Effect,
[1:25:45]
Act of saying that the Council voted in favor of redeveloping mobile home parks with mixed use of development and sending eviction notices to the elderly.
[1:25:57]
Why would you do that?
[1:25:59]
Don't you have parents that are elderly?
[1:26:01]
Like me?
[1:26:03]
If I got that I'd be, you know, I just be shocked.
[1:26:08]
But you went ahead and did it as a campaign trick.
[1:26:13]
Also, relative to a Jedi item 9.2, I'm all in favor of that, and thank you, Mayor, for getting better at running the meeting with Roberts Rules of Order and not allowing people to speak out of turn and out of order.
[1:26:35]
I'm here to rename it the Amy ordinance and pronounce her guilty as will be charged. Thank you.
[1:26:43]
Our
[1:26:49]
next speaker is Roger Minderum, followed by Natlin.
[1:26:59]
Good evening, Roger Minderum.
[1:27:01]
President was minister.
[1:27:02]
Just so everyone knows this is a linear microphone.
[1:27:05]
So if you're near it, it doesn't work.
[1:27:07]
If you're in front of it, that's when it works.
[1:27:09]
So it has to be pointing at your mouth.
[1:27:11]
So we'll helpful in it there.
[1:27:12]
Just a little comments about the ARPA funds.
[1:27:15]
Just so everyone knows, yeah, these are all great.
[1:27:17]
Because the government, the federal government,
[1:27:19]
is given this money to cities.
[1:27:21]
And, but everybody really needs to realize every single dollar in ARPA that isn't used to recover from COVID, is what we are living with across this country in inflation, ARPA created the inflation that we are all living with.
[1:27:45]
I'm not saying give them money back, but it's kind of confusing to people when we're spending
[1:27:49]
ARPA of money on playgrounds. I don't want to stand here and stand against playgrounds and
[1:27:55]
improving our parks, but everybody needs to know, I mean not much we can do about it, so I'm kind
[1:28:00]
of like talking in the air, but ARPA of money is our inflation.
[1:28:06]
We're not going to give them money back,
[1:28:07]
but what is it? We overtaxed, or is that just printing money that there's causing us grief across
[1:28:14]
whole country.
[1:28:18]
There's a lot of money being spent or being approved tonight on this agenda
[1:28:22]
and I would like a little bit more conversation, some smart conversation, which would
[1:28:29]
just include two people on the ends over here because they're pretty much brainless on anything.
[1:28:34]
And I would like to also point out to everyone who's watching on TV that's not on this room.
[1:28:40]
When the cameras are on the speakers,
[1:28:45]
we should really point out who's not sitting up here.
[1:28:49]
And these two carry on and all and all and all
[1:28:50]
about representing the people.
[1:28:53]
When they're not sitting up here,
[1:28:55]
they're not representing anyone.
[1:28:57]
And Namquan Wind, the only time he came in here tonight,
[1:29:00]
I don't know if his phone is running right now,
[1:29:01]
doing his YouTube channel,
[1:29:05]
which means he's making money off of this.
[1:29:07]
why is this phone sitting up there like that? Is it on?
[1:29:14]
So he's making money off this
[1:29:15]
on his YouTube channel. That's what he does as a profession. So he's making money off of
[1:29:19]
this right now. Well, we're paying him to sit in his office, sit in the back room, feed his
[1:29:23]
face, or playing with himself from whatever he's doing back there. The only time he was here,
[1:29:29]
he missed a roll call. And the only time he came in here was to second Amy's walk on item.
[1:29:34]
So everyone at home should know when certain people are not sitting up here doing their job,
[1:29:40]
and not represent anybody. And even when he is sitting here, he does not represent me at all.
[1:29:46]
The out of control chaos that these two create. I don't know if there's any
[1:29:54]
any ordinance or resolution that's going to resolve this until you actually do remove them.
[1:30:06]
I like speakers, Natlin, followed by Tammy Hammall.
[1:30:21]

[1:33:38]
Every time chí 칩 gi ja Rise to the cities of the city council,
[1:33:43]
And demographics.
[1:33:44]
I strongly agree with a gender item 9.2 on the Code of Conduct and the city council,
[1:33:49]
which is the wish of most residents,
[1:33:51]
when they saw that in recent months Counsel Aynia Nam Quang did not show the culture of city council members.
[1:33:57]
But they showed the culture of Street Thugs,
[1:33:59]
making it impossible for the city to have effective meetings,
[1:34:02]
But only quarrels, exposing the evils, a personal hatred, jealousy, competition, degradation,
[1:34:07]
and shame.
[1:34:08]
We, the voters, demand the city quickly, take strong measures to end the isolants,
[1:34:13]
arrogance, and ugliness of Councilwoman Amy Pan West, the city and Namquan, the city
[1:34:18]
must spend money on effective meetings for voters and not perpetuate the situation of these
[1:34:24]
Đừng.
[1:34:27]
Vừng.
[1:34:29]
Vừng.
[1:34:30]
Nam quán.
[1:34:32]
And Amy West.
[1:34:41]
Our next speaker is Tammy Hamel.
[1:34:43]
Follow by Michael Linn.
[1:34:53]
For the evening.
[1:34:54]
Tammy Hamel West, Mr. President.
[1:34:57]
District 1.
[1:34:59]
And let me just.
[1:35:00]
clarify. You do not speak for district one. We are not silence. I clearly am not. So that's not an issue. You don't speak for most of us. You're speaking for your own agenda that you are being coached on.
[1:35:13]
I just want to say thank you for doing this civil injunction. I mean, it's something had to be done. They keep claiming that you're not controlling the meetings. They should be happy about it that you're going to start controlling it. And maybe it will control their behavior. I kind of doubt it because even at the beginning of the meeting,
[1:35:30]
when they try to bring on an agenda item that she shouldn't know the rules about.
[1:35:35]
All I could think was they can't even behave and we have company like we have so many people here visitors getting recognition and
[1:35:41]
They're still acting like that
[1:35:43]
So I hope that starts tonight
[1:35:45]
Especially with him being gone. He's I think he's been here a total about 10 minutes of this meeting so far
[1:35:51]
She's here, but she's not she's on her phone
[1:35:54]
Probably on YouTube. She's probably streaming like she's been doing like he's been doing and I would like to know
[1:35:59]
If they are making money on these channels,
[1:36:03]
while they're getting paid taxpayer money to sit here
[1:36:06]
and do nothing for the city except do their own agenda
[1:36:10]
and try to destroy the city from within,
[1:36:12]
I would like to know if that's an issue.
[1:36:15]
If they are making, because that to me would be double dipping.
[1:36:18]
And I would hope that those injunctions
[1:36:20]
of the fines and everything can start tonight
[1:36:22]
with her behavior, his absence,
[1:36:27]
and actually I would like it to go retroactively.
[1:36:31]
But I'm actually being thought to have more, but thank you.
[1:36:43]
Our next speaker is Michael Lynn, followed by Hideout.
[1:36:53]
Hello, dear Mr. Mayor, dear Vimer and all council.
[1:37:00]
My name is Michael Lynn and I'm not live here. I'm from Washington from my house to the water to BC Vancouver Canada only 13 minutes.
[1:37:09]
And the thing is, we try to move to Westminster, but my wife said, no, you know, why?
[1:37:17]
Because I open every meeting in the Westminster for my wife, look at it, and see if the
[1:37:23]
nice said, no, she don't want to move to over here.
[1:37:27]
And the thing I'm come over here, I want to sorry for all Westminster resident, I'm support
[1:37:34]
wrong person for non-quan and Amy that two people I'm
[1:37:39]
support 100% but all the middle and I see what they take the
[1:37:44]
action I'm disappointed. That's all. I just want to talk about the
[1:37:50]
fake news and right. Okay. Yeah, that's why every time and I'm the
[1:38:00]
200, 300,000 people watching and all they got mass that they saw, they said, why we don't
[1:38:08]
fit that problem.
[1:38:10]
Please, Mr. Lawyer, Mr. Mayor, how we fit that problem we don't have any happened like before
[1:38:19]
for every minute.
[1:38:21]
Thank you.
[1:38:22]
And so sorry, all the residents from Westminster, I'm support, strong person.
[1:38:27]
Number one and Amy. Thank you.
[1:38:37]
Our next speaker is Kai Dau.
[1:38:39]
Hi, Joseph Nau.
[1:38:51]
Good evening, everyone.
[1:38:54]
Mr. City Attorney, I applaud you.
[1:38:58]
I applaud you for guiding the circus of a council
[1:39:02]
to finally address this issue and try to find a solution
[1:39:07]
to resolve this problem before us.
[1:39:10]
That has turned us into the laughing stock of the county, if not the state.
[1:39:21]
Even people living in rural areas in Vietnam, all over America and around the world are
[1:39:31]
watching our meeting to amuse themselves with discussed MPD.
[1:39:39]
That's why I told you guys, Mr. Mayor, I even called you stupid before, right?
[1:39:47]
That's why I told you guys, I'm ashamed to have the four of you represent us in the dias.
[1:40:00]
As Vietnamese American, both people of Vietnamese refugees,
[1:40:08]
but I guess you missed a mirror, specifically, specifically, trying to pass this resolution in order to stop the chaos in your opinion in your mind.
[1:40:22]
So, you think you can improve the situation of our product reputation.
[1:40:29]
Because you think, NAMQUAN, and I'm sorry, Council member Amy Fangwess, or Council member NAMQUAN
[1:40:37]
will.
[1:40:38]
The only two that cause this problem.
[1:40:46]
I don't disagree with you three on this,
[1:40:52]
but what about the two cars of this problem?
[1:41:00]
What do you think turn this two into such uncontrollable hagglers or hoodlums?
[1:41:13]
Have you always been fair and just have you always beside the meeting accordingly, properly?
[1:41:25]
professionally, impartially, without bias, or hidden motives.
[1:41:34]
Well, one of the oncologists told me, people that he hate, afraid of most, is self-righteousness
[1:41:44]
people.
[1:41:45]
I think you and your followers at that.
[1:41:51]
Our next speaker is Joseph Nell, followed by Devorah Meriskel.
[1:42:02]
Hello everyone.
[1:42:02]
Thank you so much for your time.
[1:42:05]
Thank you so much for your time.
[1:42:08]
Thank you.
[1:42:18]
Thank you.
[1:43:36]
example, where you have sought every possible way to conceal its impact on the residents of
[1:43:40]
Little Saigon. But in reality, it is reminiscent of the days when the residents of the Little Saigon
[1:43:46]
Green Lantern neighborhood suffered from sleepless nights throughout 2017 to 2020.
[1:43:52]
We have learned that besides these issues, the mayor has also deceived the people of Virginia by
[1:43:56]
raising campaign funds for the California State Center raised in April 2024. And the money race has
[1:44:01]
funneled into the mayoral campaign fund for 2022, which is controlled by his wife, Jacqueline
[1:44:07]
Lowe, even though the space in a position does not exist. As for the city of Westminster,
[1:44:12]
we believe that the city's operational structure has been compromised. Despite my complaints
[1:44:17]
about financial fraud involving the mayor, the WCF Association had advised brother-in-law Dominic
[1:44:23]
Lowe, the Asian-American senior citizen's association, and Mr. Not Lynn, who have misused
[1:44:29]
for money laundering, we have not seen any response from the City Manager regarding these issues.
[1:44:34]
This is a form of a large-scale corruption and bribery that resembles the corruption cases
[1:44:39]
involving Orange County Supervisor Andrew Doe. We demand that you publicly present and explain
[1:44:45]
the deceitful mistakes that you have made over the past period. Returning to agenda 5.2,
[1:44:51]
we request that you withdraw and separate the residential areas from the city's development reform program.
[1:44:57]
That's all I want to say today, and I'll...
[1:45:00]
I hope you guys can withdraw the 5.2. Thank you.
[1:45:07]
Our next speaker is Deborah Mariscal, followed by our final speaker, Terry Reigns.
[1:45:15]
Good evening, everybody. Deborah Mariscal, Westminster, California.
[1:45:21]
Would like to state that, yeah, I'm Juan is not in the meeting and has not been here for quite some time just for the record.
[1:45:29]
On behalf of the residents who come and speak, who watch on YouTube, who watch live to all of our city staff, our police department, our attorney, our city manager, city clerk, my sincere apologies for what I consider they've used that you have taken for the last almost two years and I hope that that stops.
[1:45:54]
I'm quite one. Yes, I do believe that permits should be required not only by the person that wants to have the press release, but maybe if it's at all possible, even the number of press that are present to attend, I think that would be a good idea.
[1:46:12]
9.2, we have about way too much time in disruption, any disruptor should be removed.
[1:46:19]
So I really appreciate that.
[1:46:21]
And then I just have two final things to say, which are proverbs.
[1:46:25]
Better to be silent and thoughtful than to speak and prove it.
[1:46:30]
When someone shows you who they are, believe them.
[1:46:39]
Our final speaker, Terry Reigns.
[1:46:58]
Hello, item one.
[1:46:58]
Congratulations, City Clerk of Roach on your appointment as President of the City Clerk's
[1:47:02]
Department of the League, California, cities, and CCAC President coming soon to
[1:47:07]
congratulations, PD Records, and support staff, and to all who supported our
[1:47:10]
fall festival, especially our great employee association, title sponsors.
[1:47:14]
I'm 3.3, the Goodwill Proclamation is late, so I don't even hear it.
[1:47:18]
The event was on the fifth.
[1:47:19]
3.4, thanks for making most of my corrections, but you missed one.
[1:47:23]
3.5, valid insurance policies and business license were no must be obtained before
[1:47:27]
executing this contract.
[1:47:28]
They've expired, 3.6, great to have ARPA funds to improve our
[1:47:32]
the website 5.2. As I reported, the staff report states the contract is to be awarded
[1:47:37]
Western State Builders, but the original attachments, agreement, and proposal were for
[1:47:41]
our e-shelts construction. Now corrected, you're welcome.
[1:47:45]
3.5.3, yes to sponsorship of the school district is better off financially than the city
[1:47:49]
and they were not the title sponsor for a fall festival. So please consider 2,000 or 1,000
[1:47:52]
level, not 3,000. 5.4 city staff rocked the fall festival. 2 suggestions for next year
[1:47:58]
have the City Council kick off on Friday night and utilize PA speakers throughout the event
[1:48:03]
to make announcements of what entertainment is going on and where the stage is.
[1:48:06]
9.1 more important than to fake news resolution is getting official accurate information
[1:48:09]
out to all the mobile home park residents ASAP. Staff issued a press release Friday as the
[1:48:15]
first step. Council member West immediately issued her own counter press release, doubling down
[1:48:19]
on their lives, and basically calling city staff liars again. 9.2, an ordinance, your city attorney
[1:48:25]
a pint wasn't even possible.
[1:48:27]
Then he drafted one with theirs.
[1:48:28]
Permaiino government code 38513 is cited throughout.
[1:48:32]
There's no such code.
[1:48:34]
Should be 36813, subject says resolution,
[1:48:37]
but it's an ordinance.
[1:48:39]
WMC204060 only applies to any person in the audience.
[1:48:42]
Section 2B, act, or members of the public.
[1:48:45]
Section 2D, 3D, ad, city staff, and members of the public.
[1:48:50]
Also, ad members of the public to 3F and 3H.
[1:48:52]
Section E3, strike.
[1:48:53]
the presiding officer may choose the meeting.
[1:48:56]
Punish the offenders, not city staff, other council members, and the public.
[1:49:00]
Add, leaving the dios repeatedly for long periods, missing entire discussions and boats,
[1:49:05]
and going out into the audience during the meeting.
[1:49:07]
These acts most certainly disrupt in peed meetings.
[1:49:11]
A man, approved, and once adopted, enforcing.
[1:49:14]
Can only wait for aim is 1, 2, 3, 4 report from the Long Beach Conference.
[1:49:18]
A free vacation in meals for her and her three kids.
[1:49:20]
I mean, what did you learn?
[1:49:23]
Oh, I know.
[1:49:24]
How do you miss you as taxpayer funds?
[1:49:26]
Just like your mentor Andrew Doe.
[1:49:29]
I need to.
[1:49:49]
And you bet your ass it is.
[1:49:56]
Mayor, we have no further speakers.
[1:49:58]
Thank you very much.
[1:50:00]
Mr. Mayor, may I have a brief comment. I am speaking, please. Before we have a brief comment, if any of the
[1:50:11]
council want to do it, I mean it's a brief comment again.
[1:50:17]
I want to take this moment to thank you all again for coming out
[1:50:22]
your opinion. I truly appreciate your attendance and also a voice your opinion, which
[1:50:29]
every way it is. The second thing that I want to do is I want to thank Tucheri,
[1:50:36]
Ren, our residents, see, actually look at the item and see the comments to the council.
[1:50:44]
But we, from the council standpoint, we will deem to update as is appropriate from the council standpoint and from their attorney standpoint.
[1:50:57]
So I appreciate for that, but we will do what we need to be done.
[1:51:02]
The third one is I want to, I have to speak here.
[1:51:06]
I hope that what my expectation is the candidate for the city council.
[1:51:12]
should be here to present in English instead of Vietnamese.
[1:51:18]
As you can see that last meeting, we have the council here, speaking Vietnamese.
[1:51:24]
And now we don't want to have, I don't think that we don't want to have another council,
[1:51:29]
that also speaking Vietnamese and then we'll turn into Vietnamese meeting.
[1:51:34]
And I hope that you understand that. I'm very disappointed at the candidate who come up and speak Vietnamese
[1:51:45]
I would like to recognize, I would like to recognize, I would like to recognize, council number west for brief comment please.
[1:51:53]
Okay, Mr. Mayor and Council, I have took notes on, please, please, please.
[1:52:00]
Thank you, thank you very much.
[1:52:02]
Help me to run the meeting, please.
[1:52:06]
Go ahead, council number west is the brief comment please.
[1:52:09]
I understand, I took notes, like you told me too, so for each comment of each speaker.
[1:52:16]
So I just want to let you know what I took notes of in my answer, too, if I go those.
[1:52:24]
The first person that spoke was GG.
[1:52:29]
So I just want to address your concern.
[1:52:31]
I understand that you wanted, you said basically that
[1:52:41]
that item 9.2, which you mentioned about the decorum and what not.
[1:52:48]
And you must understand in the last 22 months that we Council Member Nemgwang and I have been elected by the people to be on the Council here.
[1:52:59]
We have been attacked by each one of you guys that comes to the meeting for the last
[1:53:06]
every two months.
[1:53:08]
And I know many of you who come here every two weeks, you repeat the same point at every
[1:53:16]
meeting.
[1:53:17]
You present yourself as concerned citizen, but your action has been divisive.
[1:53:23]
You haven't given us a solution that you want to fix the city since day one that we've
[1:53:28]
And here on the Council, you have attacked us.
[1:53:32]
You have constantly petronized us and bias against us.
[1:53:36]
But yet you praise Charlie, Kimberly Ho and Monzo constantly, and, you know, you say
[1:53:46]
you're neutral, but you're not.
[1:53:48]
You're bias.
[1:53:49]
And the thing is that we, as Councilman Namquang and I are here, we're more than happy to hear
[1:53:55]
you guys concerned.
[1:53:55]
We even offer.
[1:53:56]
I even offer many times if you look back on the council meeting,
[1:54:01]
that I offer you guys to come to my office,
[1:54:03]
especially Terry Ring, you know I've offered that to you,
[1:54:06]
but you have not come for five times, I've offered it.
[1:54:11]
So the thing is, if you guys have a much,
[1:54:13]
I think that's finished.
[1:54:15]
Right, you have to have a pre-comment of your person.
[1:54:19]
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
[1:54:20]
Just, it's over all.
[1:54:22]
That is what you told me to do.
[1:54:24]
Take notes and then talk to me.
[1:54:25]
That's what I'm doing.
[1:54:26]
You have used for one person. How many minutes did you use already that it's a free comment, please
[1:54:32]
Just a moment
[1:54:34]
This time here. Thank you. Okay, so now to brief on your status fine. I'm gonna go to each person that I took no on so you guys talking about
[1:54:47]
Yes, talk about fake news
[1:54:51]
And like I walk in earlier if you guys I encourage you guys look at the agenda item on
[1:54:56]
on 5.2 on September.
[1:55:00]
11. So the council board here, the mayor, Kimberly Ho, and Carlos, voted to pass an ordinance,
[1:55:09]
to pass a, basically, a, basically, a minute. We can't have this mayor, we are ready to talk about
[1:55:16]
our door. Do we, vice mayor, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, and I, I know what to do. I, I will have you have one more
[1:55:24]
minute for brief comment and I will I will have to stop you from this. Sorry.
[1:55:30]
One minute. Okay, may I finish? Go ahead. One minute for her.
[1:55:33]
You don't tell us. Thank you. Go ahead. We have go ahead.
[1:55:37]
So if each person I'm going to address their concern.
[1:55:40]
No, if you like to. You're one minute. Don't have a narrative. This is where I share.
[1:55:45]
They have shared their grievances. I'm responding back to their grievances.
[1:55:49]
You're using your one minute. Okay. So may I finish? I have the floor.
[1:55:52]
Mr. Mayor, may you have 41 minutes.
[1:55:56]
Okay, so anyways, fake me.
[1:55:58]
41 seconds.
[1:55:59]
So I came, why are you keeping interrupting me, Mr. Mayor?
[1:56:03]
I have to go ahead.
[1:56:04]
Go ahead.
[1:56:05]
You said you want to enforce a robber's rule of order.
[1:56:09]
Please follow it.
[1:56:10]
When someone have the floor, don't interrupt them.
[1:56:13]
And you're doing the same thing to distract me from answering
[1:56:16]
their grievances, and that's unfair and bias.
[1:56:19]
So regarding the fake news, that's the reason why I
[1:56:22]
to walk in an urgent item to where it is a resale to protect the resident and the low-income
[1:56:28]
people in the mobile home park. With this redevelopment rezoning, it will kick you guys out.
[1:56:35]
Thank you.
[1:56:36]
All right.
[1:56:36]
Super.
[1:56:37]
Okay.
[1:56:37]
Any other next steps of all?
[1:56:41]
I'm asking you to stop at this time. You are not recognized at this time.
[1:56:45]
You are not recognized at this time.
[1:56:48]
Councilmember West please stop please stop. I am running the meeting. Okay, please. Okay, anything else from the, from, from our council here.
[1:57:04]
Yes, Councilmember, go. Thank you, Mayor. The mayor sets the rules.
[1:57:08]
you to say briefly briefly and that's what I do know that's no
[1:57:13]
spend no time as I ask that this is not the response please go ahead
[1:57:19]
oh so now the legal attorney cannot answer our question I am the meeting and
[1:57:24]
at this time therefore how ridiculous this is guys thank you guys are electing
[1:57:31]
people like this who is good stop please please you are not recognized at this time please
[1:57:37]
go ahead. Good stop. You have your time already. You have your time already. You will listen.
[1:57:45]
You will listen because remember, Menzo, he will do the brief comment as I ask him to do.
[1:57:52]
Please. Because remember, Menzo, go ahead, Menzo. The resident sir.
[1:57:56]
So that's what I'm doing. So if you've got a question, then let her ask the question.
[1:58:02]
There's disruption in the chamber.
[1:58:04]
Can you please address that since you're the chair?
[1:58:08]
You don't know how to ask me first.
[1:58:11]
Right there?
[1:58:12]
Yeah, ask you first.
[1:58:13]
You people like Mr. Mayor, can you tell your love us
[1:58:17]
over there, please, to check it out.
[1:58:20]
And you're your, can I ask you to stop, please?
[1:58:24]
What's your mouth now, Juan?
[1:58:25]
Why did you have to let him in there?
[1:58:28]
No.
[1:58:45]
Thank you for coming out and expressing your concerns, please keep it down because when the audience
[1:58:55]
gets routed, it kind of extends to this council. So I ask for your help and keeping the
[1:59:02]
quorum out in the public. I know it's hard, but please, you guys show us the people that
[1:59:10]
don't understand quorum shows us how to do it up here because some of us don't know how to be
[1:59:15]
respectful. So I find it very horrific that two members of the council continue to manipulate
[1:59:25]
members of our community, especially the non-English speaking as a first language, which
[1:59:31]
since they're only doing it in the Vietnamese language.
[1:59:35]
Okay, so now we're in the Mays, you cannot.
[1:59:39]
There, we're in the Mays.
[1:59:40]
So what I want to say is, what's for your language?
[1:59:43]
Wait for your turn.
[1:59:44]
Okay, if you want to, to brief have a brief comment, wait for your turn.
[1:59:50]
Hold on.
[1:59:51]
That's just.
[1:59:51]
Wait for your turn.
[1:59:52]
If you want to have a brief comment, I ask you.
[1:59:55]
because I remember when, let council member Mazel finish his comment.
[2:00:02]
So I'm asking the community to please help us keep this meeting in order by doing your best to, you know, keep your temperature, your tempers down. I know it's hard. And I find it very horrific that these two council members continue to lie to the community to scare them. I think it puts a city as a risk, a liability, because it's, yeah, I can only see a loss in coming from residents.
[2:00:30]
who are taking this meeting as a city issue, and there's spreading false information to the
[2:00:37]
community.
[2:00:37]
Thank you.
[2:00:38]
Thank you.
[2:00:38]
Thank you.
[2:00:39]
Thank you.
[2:00:40]
Thank you.
[2:00:44]
Okay.
[2:00:44]
Thank you.
[2:00:47]
I want to respond to you about the comment that you just make earlier.
[2:00:52]
about me speaking Vietnamese.
[2:00:55]
If you ever let me have enough time, okay?
[2:00:59]
I want to speak Vietnamese and English.
[2:01:02]
So you are the one that take away the time
[2:01:07]
that the Council member allowed to speak.
[2:01:10]
So you are a liar.
[2:01:13]
Oh, you said his story.
[2:01:15]
Council.
[2:01:16]
Hold on, hold on.
[2:01:18]
Can I stop you for a minute?
[2:01:22]
Let's go ahead and finish your story, please.
[2:01:28]
Will you please help me to run the meeting last time?
[2:01:31]
Thank you, that's it, all right.
[2:01:33]
OK, moving on.
[2:01:36]
The next thing is the consent calendar.
[2:01:40]
All matters listed under consent calendar are considered routine
[2:01:44]
and may be approved by the single motion
[2:01:47]
followed by a row call vote.
[2:01:49]
that will be pleased.
[2:01:53]
Please, please, please.
[2:01:55]
I want to.
[2:01:56]
Why?
[2:01:57]
Don't, what, what, what?
[2:02:00]
Please, please, please.
[2:02:04]
I am, I am.
[2:02:06]

[2:02:10]
First warning to you.
[2:02:13]
I am the first warning to you.
[2:02:16]
She, she incorrectly marked that.
[2:02:18]
You have to get back to the Dias.
[2:02:28]
Remember, I am issuing,
[2:02:33]
I want to mention again.
[2:02:39]
This is the second warning to you.
[2:02:44]
We told you.
[2:02:45]
I ask you, I ask you to go back to the council, I ask, please, you have no right at this time, you have no right to speak of this time, if you want to, you can go back there.
[2:03:09]
You can take a role as a public member, which one you choose?
[2:03:18]
No, you can do only one at this time.
[2:03:22]
I am moving on.
[2:03:23]
Okay, this time here, I want to, I will entertain the motion for consent calendar if there is any.
[2:03:53]
Hold on, hold on.
[2:03:55]
I want, I want you to hold it right now.
[2:03:59]
I want you to hold it.
[2:04:01]
I want you to hold it.
[2:04:03]
Let me ask.
[2:04:27]
I was informed that she put in the request card, but see if the request card is for non-Achenda items, which is not the time yet.
[2:04:39]
So, at this time, I asked you for the third time.
[2:04:44]
I issued you the third time, okay?
[2:04:49]
It is the third time wanting for you.
[2:04:52]
I asked you to leave the council chamber.
[2:05:00]
Okay, please, see the council members and I already give the third warning. At this time, I asked the police not to let her back to the council. Otherwise, I have to do the eviction, I mean, it's already three warnings. Okay, you don't need to talk about it. You have to do your job right here.
[2:05:29]
Okay, at this time, I would like to entertain if there is any motion for consent calendar.
[2:05:38]
do the poll 3.5.
[2:05:42]

[2:06:03]
Oh, we're not sure if you want it.
[2:06:05]
Actually, we're going to discuss that in a bit, the billboard.
[2:06:08]
Okay, so 3.4, 3.
[2:06:12]

[2:06:15]
Which one did you have again?
[2:06:17]
Okay.

[2:06:52]

[2:07:07]
Okay, at this time, I am 3.4, continue from October 9, 2020 for our regular C, because
[2:07:16]
leading approval of pro-services agreement for the Westminster Police Department
[2:07:23]
rotation of total program.
[2:07:26]
This item, who by council member Wayne, may your turn, may your amendment and re-keys myself
[2:07:32]
again from this item?
[2:07:33]
Sure. Thank you.
[2:07:37]
Does a member want to be recognized?
[2:07:39]
All right. Thank you, Charlie. Can I ask a question?
[2:07:42]
Okay. So for now, how many companies that we are about to enter the contract with them?
[2:07:51]
For the towards service?
[2:07:52]
We currently have one. We're looking for a three or four.
[2:07:56]
Is the goal?
[2:07:57]
Okay. So how long does it take you to, for the policy department to get the second one
[2:08:04]
that the one at the fault one.
[2:08:06]
First we would have to meet with all the interested toe companies
[2:08:10]
and then they would have to pass the CHP's inspection
[2:08:14]
before we could even take them on into our program.
[2:08:19]
Okay, so can you just throw me a wow guess?
[2:08:23]
Like how long is going to take you?
[2:08:33]
The goal is to have it done by the end of the year
[2:08:35]
if it gets approved tonight.
[2:08:39]
Okay, so what would you have in the question?
[2:08:41]
Thank you.
[2:08:42]
You know how it's just felt like we, I wanted to go one of the concepts.
[2:08:46]
It would do you guys.
[2:08:47]
I'd like to have a number of words.
[2:08:48]
Okay.
[2:08:49]
It's going to be five minutes for each and so I'll ask you to go ahead and put in.
[2:08:54]
All right.
[2:08:55]
Now I can recognize you.
[2:08:58]
Go ahead.
[2:09:00]
So, whether, thank you for being here tonight.
[2:09:03]
You know, we always support you guys.
[2:09:05]
But we just need more information that I wanted to sit down with you guys
[2:09:09]
to go over, you know, different, I guess I wanted to make a appointment with Chief, but he's on vacation right now, so you won't be back in 10 days, right?
[2:09:19]
So, can I schedule a appointment because I would love to know what's going on?
[2:09:24]
And to sit down with those toll company, just to get more information and input on what the Chief says regarding that.
[2:09:32]
Is that a possibility for me to make an appointment with the Chief, hopefully, so they come back?
[2:09:37]
Yeah, you're always more than welcome to make an appointment with the chief.
[2:09:41]
I have the Commander-in-Chair who's the expert on this topic and he should be able to answer
[2:09:46]
any questions you would have.
[2:09:48]
If you'd like.
[2:09:49]
I mean, I would love for the information to present, but as I say, I would love to sit down
[2:09:54]
and get time to chew on those information is important because every decision I make it affects.
[2:10:01]
I want to make sure I do diligent. Is this you can't present it if you want to. But I will continue, I need a sit down and
[2:10:10]
chew on the pockets you chew, Who you do?
[2:10:14]
I do, try to set, Nice nice on.
[2:10:18]
Or Who else to run the meeting? I understand exactly what we did to do. Let have a, you are so a
[2:10:23]
Yeah, thank you.
[2:10:25]
Don't be fooled.
[2:10:27]
I ask you to be quiet, please.
[2:10:30]
Okay, I don't know.
[2:10:31]
If you don't use your five minutes wisely, then that's your problem.
[2:10:36]
Okay, so I mean, if you want to present, you can.
[2:10:40]
But if it's possible, can you put me down for the calendar for our chief?
[2:10:44]
To go over this.
[2:10:45]
Thank you, whoever.
[2:10:50]
So would you like us to talk about it?
[2:10:52]
Or do you have specific questions?
[2:10:54]
Well, you can talk about it if you like about just the toe company like I guess Mr. Namquang just asked
[2:11:01]
What company are you guys already have right now and then?
[2:11:06]
Okay, you guys are looking for new ones
[2:11:09]
We haven't met with any of the new one jet until this agreement has approved we we can't meet with the toe companies
[2:11:15]
We currently are only operating with one, but I thought the company we have right now. We're pretty good with the towing
[2:11:21]
No, they're fantastic, but you need multiple companies on the call, in case we have big
[2:11:27]
accidents, or more than one accident at one time, we need access to more tow trucks so we
[2:11:34]
can clear the road faster. So there's not a lane. Right now we currently only have one.
[2:11:39]
Yes, and we haven't met with any other companies we can't without this agreement being approved.
[2:11:44]
Okay, so you want more than one. I mean how many people are in that company that does the tow
[2:11:50]
And there routes, do you know?
[2:11:53]
I don't know how many employees they have,
[2:11:55]
but in my two and a half decades working for this city,
[2:11:58]
we've always had a minimum of three.
[2:12:01]
Then what happened to the companies?
[2:12:03]
One sold, and then one we can't speak on right now.
[2:12:07]
The city attorney addressed that last, last week.
[2:12:16]
Hmm.
[2:12:16]
So tell me, sir, is it hurt to let her finish her time?
[2:12:23]
So, one sold a company and then we have one that you guys can't talk about, okay.
[2:12:33]
And yeah, that's why I want to sit down with you guys for that reason.
[2:12:37]
You know what I mean?
[2:12:38]
If you guys can't publicly speak about it, at least as a council member, I need that information
[2:12:42]
to make decision.
[2:12:43]
We can't publicly speak on it because of possible litigation.
[2:12:48]
It's not something we can.
[2:12:49]
the city attorney made a ruling on this last meeting.
[2:12:54]
So they did something fraudulent as a matter of time.
[2:12:55]
I'm not going to city attorney.
[2:12:58]
Now again, I can't recognize the C that too.
[2:13:02]
What's before you is a process.
[2:13:05]
The council has an opportunity to approve a process
[2:13:08]
of having a rotational toe, you know,
[2:13:11]
hire these companies to be on a rotation.
[2:13:15]
That's what's to be considered by the council,
[2:13:16]
not the individual toe companies and so we don't want to get into that.
[2:13:22]
But you can discuss the process, but this is pretty standard for cities to have this kind of a rotation.
[2:13:28]
So we don't have one.
[2:13:29]
So from what I'm understanding, Mr. Carlos Monser is excuse himself because of potential conflict of these less of toe company have don't need to have was that correct?
[2:13:40]
Well, there's no there's that's the reason why.
[2:13:42]
So I want to sit down and talk to Chief regarding all of this company, then you guys listed here.
[2:13:51]
I just want to get more information. So with that, I guess I'm just a UMI time.
[2:13:56]
All right. Thank you very much.
[2:13:58]
If you allow me to go before you, I would take five minutes, but you go ahead and start.
[2:14:07]
I just wonder, this is, let me read the item again.
[2:14:12]
3.4, continue the form the October 9, 2024 regular city council meeting.
[2:14:21]
This is a continued item.
[2:14:23]
What did you do for the last two weeks, you haven't done a thing, you haven't yet
[2:14:29]
to achieve and now you're asking for another two weeks.
[2:14:34]
Why are you doing that to all of us here?
[2:14:37]
And the next time you will ask for another two weeks, are you going to keep this moving out?
[2:14:44]
I don't think that you are doing this literally.
[2:14:47]
Your job as a council to review the item before you come to the meeting.
[2:14:54]
This is a continued item from October 8, 2020 for a regular city council.
[2:15:00]
So meeting, it is read on that agenda right there. That's all I have. That's for you. That's me all.
[2:15:07]
Yes, I do request that you two before you come to the meeting. And as I noticed that it says continue from October 9th.
[2:15:16]
And so everything is, you know, because you are the hold-ups. So it's not good for our city to not be able to move forward.
[2:15:26]
And a half rotation on top program, we need more than one.
[2:15:31]
So let's all have to say, we need to move forward.
[2:15:34]
So my statement is to that.
[2:15:37]
No, it's not your tongue yet.
[2:15:39]
So right now we have second round.
[2:15:41]
No, two round.
[2:15:43]
You're done?
[2:15:43]
Yes, she's done.
[2:15:44]
You're done.
[2:15:46]
Next, are you having anything, Council member?
[2:15:51]
He's a spoke.
[2:15:53]
because he go before you, so I want to go for the next year.
[2:16:00]
Okay, let me ask, okay, stop there for a minute for him.
[2:16:04]
Let me ask, there will be shift from weapon.
[2:16:09]
So when we enter agreement, this agreement.
[2:16:14]
So the agreement going to be with the towards community right now,
[2:16:21]
Or what is the one that current in there?
[2:16:27]
The one that we're currently using?
[2:16:29]
They would have an opportunity to do this agreement, yes.
[2:16:35]
And why we need agreement?
[2:16:38]
Because I think we already have agreement with this current,
[2:16:42]
so in service,
[2:16:45]
right?
[2:16:46]
So why do we need this agreement?
[2:16:48]
Right.
[2:16:48]
This agreement lays out the rules that the two companies have to follow.
[2:16:52]
So we make sure that they're not breaking any rules, or they're not overcharging our residents or doing things that wouldn't be that we wouldn't support in the city
[2:17:03]
Okay, so as far as understand this is the new agreement
[2:17:08]
That you are you guys come up with right so the old agreement expired. We're trying to renew this agreement
[2:17:15]
Okay, you got it.
[2:17:22]
So what is the difference between the
[2:17:25]
But the spy one, with the new one.
[2:17:29]
There were a couple changes.
[2:17:30]
The biggest one was we moved the mileage the company could be out of the city just a little
[2:17:35]
bit because we didn't have enough companies in the city currently.
[2:17:40]
But we want to make sure that the response times are short enough so we extended the mileage
[2:17:45]
a little bit, but it would still be able, they would still be able to be here in a timely
[2:17:49]
manner.
[2:17:50]
Okay, do we have the, I mean the, the item that I once mentioned to the chief that the towing service community, they, they are not allowed to charge the people on the day that they are not working, which is Sunday.
[2:18:15]
Do we have that clause in the new agreement?
[2:18:20]
You wanted the after hours fee waived?
[2:18:24]
No, no.
[2:18:24]
I mean, like, I've been to a lot of toe in service company,
[2:18:32]
and they close on Sunday.
[2:18:34]
But they still charge the people on Sunday.
[2:18:37]
Was it the day that they don't work?
[2:18:41]
So, do we have that class in the agreement?
[2:18:46]
We have an after hours fee established in the agreement.
[2:18:50]
Yes, no, no, no, no, I guess to clarify, is there anything in the agreement that requires them to be available on a Sunday?
[2:19:03]
So they have to be available in order to qualify as a qualified company.
[2:19:07]
But there is a fee associated with these.
[2:19:09]
Yes, and after I was paid.
[2:19:22]
All right.
[2:19:22]
Are you by time?
[2:19:23]
Thank you very much.
[2:19:25]
Before I start with with Councilmember West,
[2:19:27]
recognize in her for the second round.
[2:19:30]
I just want the public to understand that sometimes I have to
[2:19:33]
raise my voice because I have to gain the control of the meeting.
[2:19:39]
It will be, you know, it will be wild.
[2:19:42]
So, sorry about that, but I don't want to do that.
[2:19:46]
If the meeting is going well, then we can
[2:19:48]
in the auto-liminer, then I don't have to do that.
[2:19:53]
So, I apologize for that and hope you understand.
[2:19:55]
And now I want to recognize our councilman.
[2:20:03]
Okay, I want to address your comment, Mr. Mayor earlier. So, the thing is that Mr. Mayor, Vice Mayor and
[2:20:13]
Monso, which he's not here because he recuse himself. So, that's you guys too. You guys can
[2:20:18]
decide however you want to vote as your vote, your choice, and you represent your district and
[2:20:26]
but the thing is that when you are condescending the whole night and you've been doing this forever
[2:20:33]
because you guys have the majority so you're doing to the minority in the council chamber here
[2:20:38]
and all of us have one vote and it's very disrespectful to be condescending to your colleagues
[2:20:43]
and that's unacceptable when you talk about decorum and ethical.
[2:20:48]
What you guys are doing is putting the other colleagues down.
[2:20:50]
We work hard to be elected by the people and we're representing the people.
[2:20:56]
So the majority of people in my district who voted for me over 4,000 people.
[2:21:00]
Are you talking about the item you were talking about something else?
[2:21:03]
So the decision to address that item.
[2:21:05]
You, your comments.
[2:21:08]
So you, you can't agree or disagree up to you,
[2:21:11]
but I am responding back to your comments.
[2:21:14]
So you guys can vote however, but you don't need to, you know, put your colleagues down or belittle them.
[2:21:19]
And the thing is that all of us do our study.
[2:21:22]
You think you're the only one who reads the agenda.
[2:21:25]
You know how many agenda I read and put notes on,
[2:21:29]
because I write them down.
[2:21:31]
So it is very condescending and some acceptable behavior
[2:21:34]
for the council on here to talk like that to your colleagues.
[2:21:40]
And then the other thing is,
[2:21:44]
you know, thanks for presenting.
[2:21:46]
I will make that appointment with Chief when it comes back.
[2:21:49]
and we will go forward with the vote.
[2:21:52]
So, I motion to move this item forward for vote.
[2:21:56]
I second.
[2:21:59]
Okay, at this time, I recognize Vice-Emmel, if there's any comment from you.
[2:22:06]
I'm good.
[2:22:07]
Go ahead and call for the vote.
[2:22:10]
Thank you.
[2:22:11]
I have a motion made by Councilman Fanwess, seconded by Councilman Verwin, to approve the
[2:22:16]
Tows Service's Agreement for Tows Service providers, desiring to participate in the Westminster
[2:22:20]
please department's rotational top program. I've got a call for roll. Councilman Fian West.
[2:22:26]
Well, I want it, I guess I want to move forward to this vote, but can I substitute or kind
[2:22:33]
of edit the motion a little bit? City Attorney? Yes. It is your motion, so if you'd like to amend it.
[2:22:39]
So I was wondering if we can push this till we sit down with the guys and talk about the
[2:22:47]
with the other toe and all the toe that company that's listed on here, that's my substitute
[2:22:55]
modification to the motion before we vote.
[2:23:01]
I guess it's the same thing, right? Is the same thing that the delay?
[2:23:03]
So we sit down to continue the item until you sit down with staff?
[2:23:09]
Exactly. We would need some kind of dates, sir.
[2:23:17]
Okay, so you'd like to continue this to the next meeting, which is scheduled on November 13th.
[2:23:27]
Is the second agree to the second?
[2:23:32]
All right.
[2:23:33]
So I have a motion made by Councilwoman Fian West.
[2:23:36]
So before you, before you call for the vote.
[2:23:41]
Let me, I change my, I want to do the substitute motion.
[2:23:44]
Oh, sure.
[2:23:46]
My subject motion is to do nothing.
[2:23:49]
So what?
[2:23:50]
Do nothing?
[2:23:50]
No, nothing.
[2:23:51]
This is the same thing I'm pushing forward.
[2:23:53]
For example, when you use the delay,
[2:23:55]
let's say I'm doing nothing right now.
[2:23:58]
Not to approve it.
[2:24:00]
To take no action or to not approve.
[2:24:03]
Not approve.
[2:24:03]
OK.
[2:24:04]
Not approve my motion.
[2:24:06]
Is that where you're asking?
[2:24:07]
Not approve this item today.
[2:24:10]
That is pushing back to two weeks, two weeks.
[2:24:12]
is there a second to the motion to take no action or the substitute motion to take no action?
[2:24:22]
Second.
[2:24:26]
Okay, so I have a substitute motion made by Mayor Win, seconded by Vice Mayor Ho, to take no action on the item.
[2:24:32]
I'll go ahead and call for the substitute motion. Councilwoman Fan West.
[2:24:37]
city manager as some confuse can you please explain on because that is the similar so I'm not going to I'm not going to I'm not going to comment on the motion but I do want to comment on the fact that our agreements
[2:24:51]
are going to expire so what does that mean for towing in our city.
[2:24:59]
Yeah why?
[2:25:00]
Mr. Mayor, don't you want to help them? We just want to sit with you. Well, I want to help them but by approving us.
[2:25:06]
Yes. If you agree to remove it to approve this item, I will.
[2:25:10]
That's why we sit.
[2:25:12]
Okay. Well, you said that the next.
[2:25:14]
You want to delay them two next time.
[2:25:18]
Then, was to our weeks when we sit down.
[2:25:22]
You do one thing.
[2:25:23]
That's the case.
[2:25:24]
If that's the case.
[2:25:26]
We advise my question. If that's the case, let me revise my motion. My substitute motion is to approve the item.
[2:25:36]
Does the second agree with that substitute amendment?
[2:25:40]
Yes.
[2:25:43]
So I have an amended substitute motion made by Mayor Owen, seconded by Vice Mayor Hill, to approve
[2:25:50]
the toe services agreement for toe service providers,
[2:25:52]
is desiring to participate in the Westminster Police Department's
[2:25:56]
rotational teleprogram.
[2:25:57]
Yes, the reason I make this up to the motion,
[2:25:59]
I revise my subject to motion because
[2:26:01]
he asks to help them to get it to going.
[2:26:05]
So I just want to make it clear.
[2:26:08]
You just go ahead and call for the opening.
[2:26:10]
I want to say what I want to say is that by approving,
[2:26:13]
by voting yes, we can still have you sit down with the chief
[2:26:17]
in two weeks.
[2:26:18]
Yes.
[2:26:19]
Amy.
[2:26:21]
So yes, we still have you, however you want, so we're making a motion, there's motion on the floor.
[2:26:27]
Substitute motions, so can you please?
[2:26:28]
Go ahead and call for the point.
[2:26:29]
I'll call for the substitute motion, Councilman Fan West.
[2:26:34]
Substitute motion now.
[2:26:37]
Councilmember Win?
[2:26:38]
No.
[2:26:40]
Vice Mayor, how?
[2:26:41]
Yes.
[2:26:42]
Mayor Win?
[2:26:43]
Yes.
[2:26:45]
Motion's two two.
[2:26:46]
Okay.
[2:26:46]
You know, a call for your original motion please.
[2:26:49]
Original motion is motion was made by Councilmember Fanwess, second by Councilmember
[2:26:55]
Win, to continue the item to the next regular meeting to be held on November 13th,
[2:27:00]
I've got a call roll, Councilmember Fanwess, Fanwess, yes, Councilmember Win.
[2:27:07]
Vice Mayor Ho?
[2:27:08]
No.
[2:27:09]
Mayor Win?
[2:27:10]
No.
[2:27:10]
Motion's failed too, too.
[2:27:12]
All right.
[2:27:12]
Moving on.
[2:27:24]
I don't know, I don't know, I did revise my motion just so that we can do the city business, according to the request from the Council member West, but it's not going through.
[2:27:36]
I just want to check the police to make sure, what didn't you allow it?
[2:27:41]
I don't even know why it's so many times to make sure.
[2:27:46]
Either way, we won't have it today.
[2:27:48]
Either way, we'll have it today.
[2:27:51]
Can we go to the next one?
[2:27:54]
So my understanding is that this is a stuff item,
[2:27:59]
and stuff always can bring it back, right?
[2:28:02]
Whenever they do, they think it's fit, right?
[2:28:06]
Okay, thank you, that's it.
[2:28:09]
Okay, moving on, moving on to item 5, 3.5.
[2:28:14]
Amendment number one to the agreement with Anna.
[2:28:19]
But for continued emergency operations entered the coordination services in fiscal year 2025.
[2:28:26]
This item is proved by council member Wynn, you are now recognized.
[2:28:32]
Yes, can I ask a question about this?
[2:28:37]
How much is the operations center?
[2:28:41]
Can I suggest that when we have these kinds of items,
[2:28:44]
if there's major questions about it,
[2:28:46]
just have staff give a staff report on it?
[2:28:48]
Yes, please.
[2:28:49]
Because I think it will be helpful to lay out what the
[2:28:52]
agreements for that sort of thing.
[2:28:55]
Dave brief, a brief.
[2:28:56]
Well, I think in the interest of time for items that are pulled from the consent calendar,
[2:29:00]
It's easier if the council member just asks the question than we can address it directly.
[2:29:07]
Yes, okay, move on.
[2:29:11]
Okay, can I have a question?
[2:29:13]
With whoever that responsible for this?
[2:29:19]
All right, so this is the first time that I heard about the Anna Burton Emergency Operations Center.
[2:29:27]
Last year I didn't heard about this.
[2:29:29]
I didn't hear about this.
[2:29:31]
Okay, so, where is it at? And why we have this?
[2:29:35]
I can call Anna up and she can answer any questions you'd like.
[2:29:45]
Good evening, Anna Burton.
[2:29:48]
Okay.
[2:29:49]
The position that I currently fill under this contract is providing
[2:29:52]
emergency management services. And part of that is the coordination of our emergency
[2:29:57]
operations center. This is the center that's used.
[2:30:00]
To bring city staff together, we work with local agencies, all city departments, the county, the state, and most importantly with FEMA, if we have a catastrophic emergency, this would be the coordination to identify how we can collect and reimburse ourselves for any public infrastructure losses, and also identify grants to support us in our emergency management programs.
[2:30:23]
Okay, so how long have you been working with us, the city?
[2:30:28]
The contract was first initiated November 1st of last year.
[2:30:32]
This is the first renewal.
[2:30:34]
Okay, this is for W.W.
[2:30:36]
Webber.
[2:30:37]
So I believe that when I visit the police department,
[2:30:42]
I noticed that we have a big room that used for that we will be used for the emergency, right?
[2:30:52]
Yes.
[2:30:52]
So why we have this emergency operations center and what's going to be with the police in case of emergency like this, what will you do?
[2:31:09]
So the emergency operations center would be activated and those people who are identified in those core roles and positions would be asked to respond to the emergency center
[2:31:20]
and then begin the coordination of the city's response.
[2:31:24]
And that could be situation assessment,
[2:31:27]
supporting the field operations,
[2:31:28]
and then working with the county
[2:31:30]
and our other mutual aid partners.
[2:31:37]
So, this for Christine Howcum.
[2:31:38]
I didn't hear about this.
[2:31:40]
That's good.
[2:31:43]
Howcum, you didn't hear about us hiring
[2:31:45]
an emergency coordinator or do we have a agreement and that?
[2:31:50]
She has, and she there is an agreement.
[2:31:53]
That's why this is a renewal.
[2:31:58]
Well, previously, who was doing it before, sorry, who was doing it before we had a couple
[2:32:02]
of other emergency services coordinators, Robert Costa was one at one point, Mike Seguro
[2:32:10]
was another one at one point, but we, you know, as as a city entity, we should always
[2:32:16]
happen, emergency services coordinator.
[2:32:20]
So, yeah, if I could speak to this, this is just, I mean, if an emergency happens,
[2:32:25]
such as we've seen on the East Coast recently,
[2:32:29]
or in any earthquake or a thing of that nature,
[2:32:32]
we have to be ready to get right on top of it very quickly.
[2:32:36]
So this particular role helps to make sure
[2:32:38]
that we're ready for that, that staff that are in the city
[2:32:42]
are prepared, that they, that everything's organized,
[2:32:45]
that they know where they're supposed to go,
[2:32:47]
what they're supposed to do.
[2:32:49]
It's really to, it's someone who's a central point
[2:32:51]
to make sure that we're doing what we're supposed to do
[2:32:54]
in the event that something happens.
[2:32:56]
So we really need this position.
[2:32:58]
It could be an employee or in this case contracting with somebody who has a lot of experience
[2:33:03]
to do it.
[2:33:04]
And so I would just point out that this is an important role.
[2:33:08]
Very important role.
[2:33:10]
Okay.
[2:33:12]
Go back to my question.
[2:33:15]
I feel like a business redundancy because I think this is the
[2:33:21]
to address this department jobs, to arrange on this, and then now we have, we have to bring
[2:33:31]
in a cut party like an outside company to do it for us.
[2:33:39]
Well, she's specialized.
[2:33:41]
She's been training as she ran a tabletop exercise with the department head, one of their
[2:33:46]
last department head meetings.
[2:33:47]
I think the, the missing piece here is in a major emergency, like say what the city attorney brought up a hurricane in Florida.
[2:33:57]
It's not necessarily police that are the ones that are coordinating all the services.
[2:34:02]
We do the emergencies, the rescues and stuff like that.
[2:34:05]
She's the one leading staff to make sure they have all their ducks in a row for maybe FEMA funding, Red Cross,
[2:34:13]
getting public works out to help with the flooding or our stuff like that, she's the one that not only trains us but orchestrates us through these events.
[2:34:23]
Is your question whether it's a contract versus an employee? Is that part of your question?
[2:34:29]
Because we could have because regardless of some cities have someone that is in house as part of if it's a fire department,
[2:34:37]
maybe someone with their fire department or someone with their police department.
[2:34:41]
We've not had one on our payroll in quite some time and it's been contracted for even
[2:34:46]
before I got here.
[2:34:49]
So, it's someone with a very specialized expertise and Anna can talk a little bit more about
[2:34:53]
where she's worked if you like, but she's got a particular skill set that not necessarily
[2:35:00]
I have nothing to against you. Thank you. Your five minutes is up. So your five minutes is up. And I don't know if I'd like to choose to go before these people, I mean, these council here. I don't have any problem with this. And you are welcome to discuss about this item, but I can move for a move to approve this item.
[2:35:25]
I think we need to make sure that everybody understands and the Council understands that the last thing we want to happen is if there is an emergency in earthquake that everybody scrambling and I know what to do and everybody's looking to somebody else for direction and we don't and then we we're caught basically with their pants down.
[2:35:48]
Thank you very much for your service for one year, I want to continue your service for the next year.
[2:35:55]
Thank you.
[2:35:57]
I have a motion made by Mayor Winn, second by council member Monzo.
[2:36:01]
This is to approve amendment number 1 to the agreement with Anna Amberton for continue to
[2:36:14]
in the amount of 82,560 dollars and offers the city manager or her does need to execute amendment
[2:36:21]
number 1 to the agreement in a form approved by the city attorney.
[2:36:25]
I'll go to call roll.
[2:36:27]
Councilmember.
[2:36:28]
I'd like to make this.
[2:36:28]
No, at this time, we are calling vote if you want to talk.
[2:36:31]
You can talk during the time that you vote, okay?
[2:36:34]
You guys never want to go around.
[2:36:35]
We have run through that already.
[2:36:37]
So go ahead and call for the vote, please.
[2:36:39]
Councilman Fan West.
[2:36:40]
So, I just want to say thank you for this emergency services very important, and I see the value of it.
[2:36:46]
And for me, I want to say thank you, and yes, I approve this.
[2:36:50]
Councillor Bonzo.
[2:36:52]
Yes.
[2:36:52]
Councillor Wayne.
[2:36:55]
Ms. Anne.
[2:36:59]
I can you tell your love us to shut up?
[2:37:06]
Who is my lover?
[2:37:07]
What you saying?
[2:37:08]
What you saying?
[2:37:09]
What you saying?
[2:37:10]
You go back to the city business and watch what you say, I'm warning you.
[2:37:17]
I will.
[2:37:18]
All right.
[2:37:19]
So, but make sure that she shut up when we are talking here.
[2:37:28]
All right, respect.
[2:37:31]
My intention is to clear everything up.
[2:37:36]
So, later on, I know what's going on, what to do.
[2:37:39]
Thank you, Anne. I approve it. Yes.
[2:37:43]
Vice Mayor Ho?
[2:37:45]
Yes. Mayor Win?
[2:37:47]
Yes.
[2:37:48]
Motion carried five zero.
[2:37:49]
Good. Next item is two point six award of contract for the
[2:37:54]
Blakely.
[2:37:55]
Blakely Park Resort.
[2:37:57]
Restoration projects.
[2:37:59]
I thought about that. Let me read again.
[2:38:01]
Award of contract for the Blakely Park or
[2:38:04]
Restoration projects.
[2:38:05]
project plan number P. That's 2614.
[2:38:11]
This item, who by customer will win, your turn.
[2:38:16]
Okay. All right. One of the things that I want to know is why we always have like 10% contingency.
[2:38:28]
You know, it's like you encouraged the company to go over the already allocate budget.
[2:38:44]
That's my question, why we encourage them to do that.
[2:38:48]
Good evening, Council.
[2:38:50]
Mayor Vice Mayor, and a member of the Council.
[2:38:54]
The reason why we typically have the standard 10% contingency,
[2:38:57]
It just allows us to cover any potential change order.
[2:39:03]
That's just a standard practice that every agency has.
[2:39:07]
And again, it's just for any unforeseen reason.
[2:39:12]
Okay.
[2:39:13]
Thank you.
[2:39:14]
Right, okay.
[2:39:15]
Any anything else from the council?
[2:39:18]
Motion to approve.
[2:39:19]
I sent a question.
[2:39:20]
Okay, question go ahead.
[2:39:21]
Thank you.
[2:39:23]
Thanks for being here today.
[2:39:24]
I really appreciate that.
[2:39:25]
And I guess the amount for a construction is $218 and 10 cents.
[2:39:35]
I know that we need to approve for different maintenance and in our city.
[2:39:41]
But one question I have is, A, M, okay, B, I have a concern.
[2:39:47]
And then, C, I'm okay, but B is where I'm stuck at.
[2:39:51]
So authorize the 10% in the amount of $21,801 for potential change order.
[2:40:00]
I know that in the past when, you know, we have any changes you guys would come back for approval.
[2:40:08]
And I think it's important. This is way before my time. I noticed in the council meeting that you guys
[2:40:14]
do bring it back and then the council discuss that and then approve or whatever might be right, more likely they will
[2:40:22]
But the thing is that I think it's for transparency and just where we, because this is a taxpayer's money that we're using in the general fund.
[2:40:35]
And so I want to make sure as this body here, that this is the amount that we approve the $2,800 and $10.
[2:40:43]
And then the 10% I would love for you as you come back because that's a people's money and to request for that amount again because when there's accountability
[2:40:53]
It's easier for the public's trust and just, you know, how we are doing government here.
[2:41:00]
So I like the old ways that you guys have come before us to approve.
[2:41:05]
And I think that's important because if it's the 10% I think it's easier to go under wrap.
[2:41:10]
That's my logic and thinking in the private sector.
[2:41:14]
So I think as we task on keeping the taxpayers money, I think it's important for you guys with B.
[2:41:21]
If we can strike that out, just for A and C, to approve tonight, if we can modify it.
[2:41:28]
If the council is okay with that, and then have you guys to come back if there's a change in order.
[2:41:35]
If it's increase in any amount or more, just come back because this is the taxpayers might.
[2:41:40]
I want to ask you, is that your subject emotion?
[2:41:43]
Yes.
[2:41:44]
It says second to the subject emotion.
[2:41:49]
You know, I also want to add that, you know, I've been here 15 years.
[2:41:52]
So every single year, I ran a lot of different projects.
[2:41:56]
And most of the time, it runs under.
[2:41:59]
We don't typically use the type of contingency,
[2:42:02]
unless it's in for a screen reasons.
[2:42:05]
So it's not always the case that we need it,
[2:42:07]
but sometimes we do.
[2:42:09]
I understand that question.
[2:42:11]
I have two more minutes and 10 seconds.
[2:42:15]
I noticed since I've got onto the Council 22 months now
[2:42:18]
that every of the agenda item
[2:42:21]
it has that 10% and I have a proven in the past, but I think right now is important that
[2:42:27]
we kind of step back a little bit. If this 10% if it's in the 2 million, which is the other
[2:42:32]
project in here agenda of a 2 million, then I think it's important that is around 250,000, right?
[2:42:40]
I don't want that $250,000 of the taxpayer money to just go out. I think it's best that you
[2:42:46]
is come back like re-developing the parts and whatever, you know?
[2:42:52]
It's important that you guys come back.
[2:42:53]
So I don't mind Section A and C.
[2:42:57]
Just be strike that out and that's it.
[2:43:00]
So that's my substitute motion.
[2:43:02]
This is second.
[2:43:03]
Is there a second?
[2:43:04]
OK, go ahead.
[2:43:05]
If you have one minute and seven seconds.
[2:43:07]
It's in a second.
[2:43:13]
It's in a second.
[2:43:13]
I second.
[2:43:14]
OK.
[2:43:15]
We have a substitute motion in second on the floor.
[2:43:18]
Please call for the substitute motion.
[2:43:19]
I would substitute motion made by Councilwoman Fan West, seconded by Councilmember Yuin.
[2:43:25]
This is to approve items A and C of Staff recommendation and remove item B. I'll go
[2:43:34]
at a call roll. Councilwoman Fan West. Fan West, yes. Councilmember Monzo.
[2:43:40]
No. Councilmember Yuin? Yes.
[2:43:42]
by Mayor Hill? That's weird. That's not the standard of practice, no. Mayor Wayne?
[2:43:51]
Well, I have two things before I vote. Number one, we have heard from staff. It's a standard of practice.
[2:43:58]
That's number one.
[2:43:59]
Yes, number two. If you were okay with that before, why all this, it is that part?
[2:44:05]
This is not a standard.
[2:44:06]
That's my vote.
[2:44:08]
My vote.
[2:44:09]
My vote.
[2:44:09]
This has been just recently in the past.
[2:44:12]
It's different.
[2:44:14]
No.
[2:44:14]
So is that your position?
[2:44:15]
Two-motion failed.
[2:44:17]
Two-three.
[2:44:18]
I'll go back to the original motion.
[2:44:20]
I have a motion made by Council Member Monzo.
[2:44:22]
Seconded by Mayor Wayne.
[2:44:23]
This is to approve the word of the contract to the lowest and responsible
[2:44:26]
bidder.
[2:44:27]
In the amount of $218,000 to a carmedee construction company.
[2:44:32]
An author is a 10% contingency.
[2:44:34]
in the amount of $21,800 and $1 for potential change orders and authorize the city manager
[2:44:42]
to execute the contract on behalf of the city.
[2:44:45]
I'm sorry, sorry, sorry to interrupt the Mayor before we will, can I have a question for
[2:44:50]
I'm sorry.
[2:44:52]
Tom, can you set earlier that this is standard practice, correct?
[2:44:58]
What about other agencies?
[2:45:00]
All of these other cities. Most of the cities I know have the same 10% contingency. And also, the reason why is important to have this 10% contingency is any time you have change orders. You don't want to go back to council and have delay of construction.
[2:45:16]
That was my last question. That was just additional costs for contractors to build into the city contract.
[2:45:22]
Yes, they will cost us more if that's the delay.
[2:45:25]
Keep in mind that there may be emergency situations that occur that are unforeseen and
[2:45:30]
staff would not have the ability to utilize funds to address that immediate emergency.
[2:45:35]
Let's say there was an emergency you hit a something a pipe or something and you don't have
[2:45:41]
the funds to cover it.
[2:45:42]
What would you do?
[2:45:43]
This is not about that, this is not, no it is about it, it is about it, this is it.
[2:45:49]
We have a lot to go ahead and deal with, but you wouldn't have it on the top of the board.
[2:45:54]
We can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you can, you do need to want to make sure that there's no misunderstanding to expedite the process
[2:45:59]
construction so we can wrap it up. So we don't convene as the motorist, the residents, yeah, and again, it's within the time to send. Thank you, sorry.
[2:46:09]
Okay, I'll put it over when.
[2:46:13]
We'll start with me first.
[2:46:15]
I apologize. Councilwoman Fan West.
[2:46:19]
This is the original motion.
[2:46:23]
I don't know.
[2:46:24]
I don't know. Thank you. Councilwoman Wanzo.
[2:46:28]
Yes. Councilmember Wayne.
[2:46:31]
Vice Mayor Hill.
[2:46:32]
This is standard of practice in public and private.
[2:46:36]
So it is a yes.
[2:46:38]
Mayor Wayne?
[2:46:39]
Yes.
[2:46:40]
Motion carried for one.
[2:46:42]
All right.
[2:46:42]
Next, moving to item 3.8, and this is approval of amendment 2 to the agreement with SDI
[2:46:54]
peasants, LLC for continued provision of the CDY information technology, consulting services
[2:47:01]
in fiscal year, 2020.
[2:47:04]
I believe that because our member was, she put item 3.8, and I understand I'm reading the
[2:47:17]
We have to read the item before we can proceed with that.
[2:47:22]
So I will have to waste my time and read it again.
[2:47:24]
Sorry about that.
[2:47:25]
Two point eight.
[2:47:26]
Approval of the amendment number two to the agreement with SDI
[2:47:30]
business LLC for continued provision up CDY information technology consulting services in fiscal
[2:47:38]
year 2024 2020 25. And this item was pulled by council member West, so you are now recognized.
[2:47:47]
So thank you for being here today, really appreciate that. I do want to hear your take on the
[2:47:53]
information technology consultant that we provide for the city of Westminster. I know it's very
[2:47:59]
important because technology is the world we live in, and AI is another thing, and those who
[2:48:06]
like hack into our system is more evidence now than ever before because of the technology
[2:48:14]
we have. So what do you do exactly for the city? Would love to hear that? Sure, sure.
[2:48:21]
Um, that's my news carry hack on. And I'm seeing your vice president with SDI presence.
[2:48:26]
Yeah, you hit it right on the head, I mean cities have a complex technology infrastructure, it's only going to get it's only getting more complex and your city staff has a lot to cover and so typically and what we're talking about here is we're helping on the firewalls, we're helping with cyber security, we're enhancing your DR environment, we're working with your virtualized servers and storage which is what runs all of the systems.
[2:48:53]
So, our job is to be there for that team and to be able to help them when they need it and bring some expertise that's probably very difficult to hold with the city.
[2:49:07]
You know, I think it's perfect because I think every city needs that protection, fire wall protection, and it's just how to run the city,
[2:49:21]
because they have a lot of database that needs to be protected, you know, and they have all the people's information.
[2:49:30]
So I appreciate all you do with your service to the City of Westminster.
[2:49:34]
And thank you for explaining that.
[2:49:36]
And I look forward to vote, yes, on the agenda.
[2:49:38]
Thank you.
[2:49:39]
Thank you very much.
[2:49:40]
Anything else from the castle?
[2:49:44]
Okay.
[2:49:45]
Wow.
[2:49:45]
I will introduce you a place in motion.
[2:49:48]
There's a motion to approve.
[2:49:49]
There's a second.
[2:49:49]
to the second. All right. Motion and second on the floor.
[2:49:53]
Covaled, please.
[2:49:55]
Thank you. I have a motion to meet by Councilwoman Fenwatz.
[2:49:59]
Second by Councilwoman Fenwatz.
[2:50:00]
This is to approve the amendment number 2 to the agreement with SDI Presence LLC for continued provision
[2:50:06]
of city-wide information technology consulting services in fiscal year 2024, 2025, and no doubt
[2:50:13]
to exceed $161,261 and authorize the city manager or her design need to execute amendment
[2:50:21]
number 2 to the agreement in a form approved by the city attorney.
[2:50:25]
I would call roll.
[2:50:27]
Councilman Fian West.
[2:50:29]
Fian West, yes.
[2:50:30]
Councilmember Monzo.
[2:50:31]
Councilmember Wayne.
[2:50:33]
Vice Mayor Hill.
[2:50:35]
Mayor Wayne.
[2:50:36]
Yes.
[2:50:36]
Motion carried 50.
[2:50:38]
Thank you very much.
[2:50:40]
As I promised the beginning, we are going to move on to agenda item or communication
[2:50:46]
in front of the public hearings.
[2:50:48]
I hope that is okay with the staff.
[2:50:50]
And I ask the question number two to agree with me on this, so at this time, I move to
[2:50:58]
help not agenda or communication moving before the public hearing.
[2:51:03]
Motion.
[2:51:04]
Yes.
[2:51:05]
Is that second to it?
[2:51:07]
Yes.
[2:51:08]
Okay.
[2:51:08]
Motion is taken to move a non-agenda or communication to me for the public hearing.
[2:51:14]
Thank you.
[2:51:15]
I have a motion made by Mayor Wind.
[2:51:16]
Secretary of Vice Mayor Hill to move item eight or communications concerning non-agenda items ahead of public hearing items.
[2:51:24]
We'll go ahead and call roll.
[2:51:25]
Councilwoman Fan West.
[2:51:28]
I guess, usually we have an order that people come in to speak at the end.
[2:51:35]
So if you switch up like this, people who come later, you know, after work to do this, I just feel like they won't have an opportunity Mr. Mayor to speak a non-agenda item for you.
[2:51:45]
So I'll vote no wait for the other people to come.
[2:51:50]
Councillor Brown, Monto?
[2:51:53]
Councillor Woodrow-Win?
[2:51:54]
No.
[2:51:54]
Vice Mayor Hill?
[2:51:56]
Yes.
[2:51:56]
Mayor Win?
[2:51:57]
Yes.
[2:51:57]
Motion carried three, too.
[2:52:00]
As promised, I will ask for a five-minute recess, so that we can take a break at this time.
[2:52:08]
And it is now 906.
[2:52:10]
I'd like to ask for Councillor Woodrow to come back here at 9 in 11, no later than that.
[2:52:15]
I will start at 9.11, so that if people can, can we have ready for it.
[2:52:20]
Thank you.
[2:52:43]
The turn now is 9.14, but the clock that I'm watching is the 9.12, so it's just one minute
[2:52:51]
after.
[2:52:51]
So, I'd like to reconvene the council meeting, and I'd like to ask for a local, a local
[2:52:59]
police.
[2:53:00]
Thank you, Mayor.
[2:53:02]
Councilman Fiannois, Van West here, Councilmember Bungzo, Councilmember
[2:53:07]
by Mayor Hill.
[2:53:10]
Mayor.
[2:53:11]
I'm here.
[2:53:11]
Mayor.
[2:53:12]
You have a quorum with Councilmember
[2:53:13]
Win, absent.
[2:53:14]
Thank you.
[2:53:15]
I will continue with the meeting with the public hearings.
[2:53:19]
I don't know.
[2:53:19]
Any one wishing to speak on an open public hearing.
[2:53:24]
May speak in person.
[2:53:27]
Thank you.
[2:53:28]
Yes.
[2:53:28]
You just did a motion to move.
[2:53:30]
Non agenda items ahead of the things.
[2:53:33]
My apologies, okay.
[2:53:35]
So, now we can move the non-natured IDAO communication in front of public hearing.
[2:53:42]
Yes.
[2:53:43]
So, I'll go ahead and read it into the record.
[2:53:45]
This is the time of the meeting that members of the public may address the city council
[2:53:48]
regarding any non-agenda items that are within the subject matter jurisdiction.
[2:53:53]
Unless otherwise extended by a majority of the city council,
[2:53:56]
common shall be limited to three minutes per speaker.
[2:53:59]
Any person wishing to address the city council in person should complete a yellow speaker
[2:54:03]
that is provided at the entrance to the council chambers and submit the car to the City Clerk.
[2:54:08]
When your name is called, please stop to the podium at that time and state your name and city of residence for the record.
[2:54:16]
Our first speaker is Jason Donne, followed by Joseph Now.
[2:54:25]
Seeing nine, we'll go ahead and move to Tina Tapia.
[2:54:39]
Good evening, my name is Tina Tapia.
[2:54:42]
And I have a message from one of my uncles.
[2:54:48]
chronically,
[2:54:51]
refer to the allegedly elected travel officials as leaders.
[2:54:56]
This is my uncle.
[2:54:57]
I suppose to be.
[2:55:04]
It is an insult to my heritage, my ancestors, and my dignity as an Oglala Lakota to have the term used loosely.
[2:55:15]
Many of the tribal officials are honest and sincere men and women have good arts.
[2:55:24]
The vast majority of the tribal officials' parasites on the incestuous world of tribal politics.
[2:55:31]
Not as our forefathers, who are the best providers, protectors, defenders, advocates and friends.
[2:55:42]
Who is the most important rules?
[2:55:46]
It's embarrassing.
[2:55:49]
Turn of the century American Indians numbered about 230,000, all traditional.
[2:55:56]
With each succeed in generation, we lose our population base and our spirit as one's proud people.
[2:56:04]
The American Indian statistics of deprivation are remain constant since the end of World War II.
[2:56:10]
All other groups of citizens, fortunes rise and fall with the gross national product, the GMP.
[2:56:19]
The American Indian statistical lines of deprivation remains constant, a strict line.
[2:56:28]
With the blatant genocide of our traditional people, we have less than 50,000 in America today.
[2:56:35]
We are averaging a loss of 1,000 a year since 1900.
[2:56:41]
We are losing a value system as distinct people that sets us apart from the industrialized world.
[2:56:47]
These facts surface in our tribal statistics, and no one attempts to do anything about it except for a few social workers and reservation police.
[2:56:58]
This news statistical horror is women and child abuse.
[2:57:04]
Child sexual abuse is epidemic on Indian reservations.
[2:57:08]
And I am a victim of human sex trafficking and weapons or health support and with Mr.
[2:57:13]
Elementary School.
[2:57:14]
Schools on the reservations.
[2:57:16]
Education, the BIA, public, the contract.
[2:57:19]
My own personal about this in 1989, and it still happened in phase, off the reservations.
[2:57:25]
And inclusion with the BIA certainly do not allow Indian culture and values to be taught.
[2:57:32]
The fact is educators continually generate American Indian traditional lifestyle
[2:57:37]
as primitive, dirty, and without any redeemable virtues.
[2:57:42]
Thank you for your time.
[2:57:44]
And the tribal council is kind of doing.
[2:57:46]
Our next speaker is Michael Verengia, followed by Donald Blink.
[2:57:59]
Hi.
[2:58:01]
That's typical.
[2:58:03]
The two council members who probably should be sitting in here conveniently, make themselves scarce.
[2:58:10]
What a couple of things.
[2:58:13]
Amy and Nom Kwan and all the rest of their lap dogs ought to be charged a fee when they
[2:58:18]
start their lying outside of the city council chambers.
[2:58:21]
I know this was brought up once before.
[2:58:24]
However, two of the times involved police officers being pulled off of their other duties
[2:58:29]
on patrol to respond to the city council area, they should be docked for that.
[2:58:37]
the people putting on these press conferences, because now those officers are not out out,
[2:58:42]
but we're actually supposed to be instead of handling a bunch of BSers on YouTube.
[2:58:50]
Second thing, the toll contract item, this is not new information and it was brought up by
[2:58:58]
you folks up here and they still couldn't figure out what they were looking at and what they were
[2:59:06]
talking about. And I'm going to listen to the deputy chief try to explain that. And unfortunately
[2:59:13]
Amy apparently has so thick headed, it doesn't go in the one here and let alone go out
[2:59:19]
the other ear. Also saying thing that construction contract, how many contracts has this
[2:59:26]
Council voted on that had a 10% standard fee to cover any unusual circumstances for those
[2:59:39]
contracts.
[2:59:40]
And then suddenly with this one, she has to argue about it and wants to eliminate it
[2:59:46]
off.
[2:59:46]
The contract, you know, I used to think that they pretended to be ignorant, but I really
[2:59:52]
do honestly think they are ignorant.
[2:59:55]
They don't bother reading the backup information when it comes to them.
[3:00:00]
They wait till they get here and then waste time asking ignorant questions which could have been answered
[3:00:07]
long ahead of time before this city council meeting. The city manager, the assistant city manager,
[3:00:15]
are always available to confirm items that are on at the mayors available. Even asking other city council
[3:00:22]
members, hey, can you clarify what I'm reading here? But no, they would much rather show up here and
[3:00:29]
play their ignorant games because then they get to listen to themselves talk, which is all
[3:00:34]
they're interested in.
[3:00:35]
They're not representing anybody except themselves.
[3:00:43]
Our next speaker is Donald Link, followed by Win-Hung.
[3:00:59]
Back by popular demand, Deliche.
[3:01:08]
You don't know how you think of it.
[3:01:10]
Donald Link, orphaned constituent from District 1,
[3:01:17]
I feel bad, you know, motherless child.
[3:01:20]
I feel like I'm not being represented.
[3:01:22]
I'm glad you're up here at the Diaz for once during public comments, for that I thank you.
[3:01:30]
Doesn't think I, like Michael said, read the information before you get up to the Diaz and make silly comments.
[3:01:40]
It doesn't look build well on you and you're on YouTube, live or something like that.
[3:01:47]
I need to get a, you know, I'm a member of SAG, I want to get paid for that.
[3:01:53]
You don't have a, you know, a, a, a, a waiver that you can use my image or likeness.
[3:02:00]
Thank you.
[3:02:02]
Again, read the idea, the agenda item before you show up at a meeting.
[3:02:07]
Be present during presentations.
[3:02:10]
stop pontificating to look like you know something when you open your mouth and prove that
[3:02:16]
you suffer from a bad case of hubris. Learn a little bit about con law. If someone owned
[3:02:22]
a property, they would know that contingency classes are SOP. Just cost more when you have
[3:02:28]
to pay a contingency fee instead of what you negotiated prior to the contract implementation.
[3:02:35]
The constant eye rolling, oh okay, stop the theatrics, the constant eye rolling from those
[3:02:41]
who are here when this happens is very hard on my ability to have cogent thoughts.
[3:02:48]
This reminds of the fellow student that asks questions, one minute prior to the lunch
[3:02:54]
bill, everybody wants to choke them, because they just are drawing attention to their
[3:03:00]
self and they're not bringing anything to the table.
[3:03:03]
Thank you.
[3:03:07]
Our next speaker is Nguyen Hong, followed by Khai Dao.
[3:03:24]
What are you in a green general?
[3:03:27]
It's a letter to sent to fire political practice commission.
[3:03:33]
Excuse me.
[3:03:34]
Combrandt again, let me tell you may.
[3:03:36]
Charlie King win in proper contribution and force a campaign report to whom it may concern.
[3:03:44]
I am writing to formally fire a complaint regarding the Westminton Mayor Cully King Winkham
[3:03:51]
Pen.
[3:03:53]
Specialist Hill, Specialist Cully, I believe that Mayor Winkham and get in a campaign finance
[3:04:01]
of violation by the honorary donation in 10th for his state senate campaign district 34 through
[3:04:11]
city council campaign account. On April 6th, 2024, the mayor went, hoped a fund-raising
[3:04:24]
ever, fund-raising even, or not, events for his Senate, state, Senate campaign and Funti
[3:04:37]
veteran in front of the young.
[3:04:40]
See, attention, invitation.
[3:04:43]
However, despite the event,
[3:04:47]
be advertised at the state, Senator District 34 of the region,
[3:04:53]
a tending war in truth, in truth,
[3:04:58]
to make a pact.
[3:05:00]
Government to friends of Jali Kimwin. Today, Mayot Nguyen had not open a state Senate campaign
[3:05:09]
at Cal at all. That's why having a certain contribution for that appropriate, it appears that
[3:05:18]
the funds are raised at the event world, the position into his city council campaign at Cal
[3:05:26]
Friends are joining win for May 2022.
[3:05:32]
Can be in disclosure report for the Friends of a jelly team win on May 2022 account?
[3:05:41]
I have attachment here on attachment.
[3:05:46]
So seven contribute from Virginia resident around the time of a Senate fundraiser.
[3:05:53]
this closer also reveal a payment of $1,100 to the entire dollar for full key
[3:05:59]
restaurant during the same period.
[3:06:03]
But this expensive were not disclosed at an incognition to his state
[3:06:10]
senator campaign.
[3:06:11]
This is a racist, serious concern.
[3:06:14]
It appears, Maison Wil had delivered
[3:06:17]
are directly mixed down about the purpose of their contribution and improperly,
[3:06:23]
full-knit donation to the Chief of Times, Sub-Sah.
[3:06:29]
I next speaker is Kai Dau, followed by Tammy Hamel.
[3:06:36]
I don't see Kai, that's my partner.
[3:06:39]
Following Tammy is going to be David Johnson.
[3:06:44]
I look, I look, he had some, right?
[3:06:49]
Next, please.
[3:06:59]
All right.
[3:06:59]
You really need to stop.
[3:07:01]
Come on.
[3:07:02]
Just just show yourself.
[3:07:03]
Really, you're just showing me now.
[3:07:05]
And you talk about disrespect and decor.
[3:07:07]
Awesome.
[3:07:08]
Please, don't do anything.
[3:07:09]
Just let her.
[3:07:10]
It's so time.
[3:07:11]
I am going to do the middle.
[3:07:13]
I'm going to do the middle.
[3:07:14]
Stop smashing the chamber.
[3:07:16]
Please, we set her in class.
[3:07:17]
You're from your meeting.
[3:07:19]
I am the chamber.
[3:07:20]
I am running the meeting.
[3:07:22]
Let me do it.
[3:07:24]
Let me do it.
[3:07:25]
You just stop.
[3:07:26]
You just stop being yourself. That's a council. Okay? Go ahead, please.
[3:07:35]
Oh my gosh, there's always so much to say.
[3:07:39]
First of all, I say, I am exhausted. Not only from this crap, but I've been up since three o'clock this morning.
[3:07:46]
I took two flights to get here from Washington, fly home today, four hours in work meetings, and now I'm here.
[3:07:52]
And he doesn't even have the respect to be here.
[3:07:54]
If we can be, because this is important to me, because I see what they're doing to the city,
[3:07:58]
and I see what they're trying to do, to council members, staff, police.
[3:08:01]
They're trying to discredit everybody, because accusation is a mission.
[3:08:05]
Everything that they're saying is what they're doing.
[3:08:07]
It's very clear.
[3:08:09]
One thing I want to say, Christine is right.
[3:08:12]
I believe she's right.
[3:08:14]
Do your work ahead of time.
[3:08:16]
Have your question.
[3:08:17]
I'm speaking.
[3:08:19]
Have your questions ready.
[3:08:22]
Do your homework.
[3:08:23]
You continuing to just push things and push you're just stalling and you're obstructing official city business
[3:08:30]
Because you don't want and you don't want to do any good for Westminster. You have your own agenda that you're being coached on
[3:08:35]
Because if you two seriously believe what you're saying
[3:08:39]
You really are that stupid or you're being coached and again, just respecting by speaking into her phone
[3:08:46]
Are you live streaming on YouTube right now? Are you getting paid for that while you're getting paid by tax payer money?
[3:08:53]
Yeah, sorry thought
[3:08:57]
one of the things now there's the first time I've heard of this and then tried to blink Christine because he'd never heard of it
[3:09:02]
Where was he during that meeting? A guarantee wasn't in a seat. That's why he didn't hear about whatever he said he didn't hear about
[3:09:10]
So I say, you know, not all attention is good attention. You guys are not getting great attention
[3:09:16]
But keep it up
[3:09:18]
Just to make comments about you all being condescending putting other colleagues down
[3:09:22]
on disruption in the chamber and we're attacking her and now Juan, let me just remind you.
[3:09:29]
She called Councilmember Kimberley Ho, a ho several times, so she had bigger balls than
[3:09:35]
the mayor.
[3:09:35]
She called staff liars.
[3:09:37]
She accuses people of taking bribes.
[3:09:39]
Now Juan, I believe, called you a pill popper up here earlier tonight and tell your lover
[3:09:45]
to shut up.
[3:09:47]
How respectful is that, Amy?
[3:09:48]
You want to tell your little followers that, get your church friends here so they can
[3:09:51]
your behavior again, this is what you do and you're laughing and smiling about it.
[3:09:56]
Again, they're stalling and obstructing official city business.
[3:10:01]
And I know whenever she gets told that she can't speak, she threatens lawsuits, call her blood. Let her sue. Let her act like this in front of a judge. Let her take her evidence to court. I will sign up as a witness right now. I've been to so many of these meetings. I can be an eyewitness to what she's done and what he's done. Next time she says she wants to sue, let her do it. And then when she has to defend herself because she keeps defaming people, she'll have to hopefully go bankrupt and just move out of the city.
[3:10:37]
I want to be transparent about this.
[3:10:43]
I know that one of the public,
[3:10:46]
or they asked question earlier,
[3:10:48]
that is it being?
[3:10:51]
This is not a brief comment.
[3:10:54]
This is the instruction.
[3:10:56]
I'm not responding to any of them.
[3:10:59]
This is the comment that I want to make sure that they know about it.
[3:11:03]
And my comments, not to respond to you guys.
[3:11:07]
But the instruction is that one of the person who asked earlier
[3:11:11]
that if Nampuan is filming right now, or his bias,
[3:11:18]
and the answer is yes.
[3:11:20]
So watch out for what you say.
[3:11:22]
That's number one.
[3:11:23]
Number two, I want to make sure that you know
[3:11:25]
that since he's doing that, he will watch it later on.
[3:11:30]
So don't worry about he's not here right now.
[3:11:32]
He will be watching it, so do whatever you have to do was your opinion if that if that's what you have to do
[3:11:40]
So I wouldn't like to go ahead and go back to
[3:11:43]
Mr. Mayor you just ain't
[3:11:44]
No, I am not responding. Yes, you did that was one of the companies
[3:11:50]
Go ahead and call for next. I next speaker is David Johnson followed by a long win
[3:12:07]
begin into her phone, distracting, and I have to try to figure out,
[3:12:12]
try listening to what the public is saying.
[3:12:15]
I am on this subject.
[3:12:17]
So not only ask you to refrain from speaking on a dias
[3:12:24]
when they are coming, so please answer at the police.
[3:12:29]
I am asking you that, please, so go ahead.
[3:12:32]
So please, if you continue to do that, I have to give you the warning.
[3:12:40]
Okay,
[3:12:44]
my name is David Johnson, a Westminster resident, so what I'm going to do, whether
[3:12:49]
you use it or not is up to you, is create a little worksheet for you to have at your
[3:12:52]
desks so you could note when somebody is interrupting our out of order, and I suggest
[3:12:58]
that after the mayor gives two warnings, the third time anyone on the dius can ask for a
[3:13:03]
and the fourth time you could ask them to be removed.
[3:13:06]
Followed the practices that you're implementing.
[3:13:10]
So I've made count and now I was an hour late
[3:13:12]
because I was at a different event.
[3:13:15]
But when I did show up during the presentations,
[3:13:17]
I started to keep track for you.
[3:13:20]
I consider an out of order when somebody interrupts somebody else.
[3:13:23]
When somebody is not following the mayor's rules
[3:13:25]
when he tells them not to come up here or something like that.
[3:13:29]
Or when you're speaking out of order interrupting,
[3:13:31]
especially yelling, which also happens mostly from over here.
[3:13:37]
So the number of times, one person from the public interrupted with seven, and she was removed.
[3:13:42]
But it took seven times before she was removed.
[3:13:45]
The rest of the public combined with six, council member, ho, twice against council member
[3:13:52]
West, mayor, noin, twice against Amy West.
[3:13:56]
Councilmember Nankwan went four times against the mayor.
[3:14:00]
Councilmember Monzo zero, he didn't interrupt anybody.
[3:14:04]
And Councilmember Amy West, 16 times.
[3:14:08]
And I have the actual minute of the hour of every one of those that could happen.
[3:14:12]
So you can track that.
[3:14:13]
So that's what I'm going to recommend in this worksheet is you just note the Councilmember's name.
[3:14:17]
The time they did it.
[3:14:18]
And there's a point at which you'll see for yourself.
[3:14:21]
This is all the notes that's becoming obnoxious.
[3:14:24]
to the point that you're city attorney,
[3:14:27]
Gabblesia, but you're acting like the six city council member
[3:14:31]
interjecting because you're trying to help the mayor control,
[3:14:35]
which isn't your role unless you're asked upon,
[3:14:37]
but I understand why you're trying to do it.
[3:14:40]
So it's that ridiculous that now key has to step in.
[3:14:44]
Take control.
[3:14:45]
Thank you.
[3:14:49]
Our next speaker is Longwing,
[3:14:51]
followed by our final speaker, Terry Reigns.
[3:15:03]
Hello, my name is Long, I'm the resident of Syria of NM, but my family is still in a district
[3:15:10]
one of the Westminster. The reason I'm here today, because I feel sorry for this city,
[3:15:19]
I feel sorry for the mayor, the vimera, mythical, manzo,
[3:15:27]
also the city of Seoul, and all the staff of Westminster,
[3:15:33]
because the behavior of Namkwang and Elme,
[3:15:40]
very poor behavior.
[3:15:42]
They not work with the city.
[3:15:44]
they are not with the staff, they spend their time on YouTube and spread out all the
[3:15:55]
negative things about the city. It's unacceptable.
[3:16:04]
I was, I'm not here every meeting,
[3:16:07]
but I was on the YouTube.
[3:16:11]
They insulting all the cows off.
[3:16:15]
They insulting the staff of West Mineral City.
[3:16:21]
They even came down and fight with the resident.
[3:16:25]
I see all that.
[3:16:27]
Us on YouTube.
[3:16:29]
Everybody say that.
[3:16:31]
I'm here to
[3:16:37]
last NAMKWANG and AMI.
[3:16:41]
I feel ashamed because we're the same culture, but we're not being culture, not like the way you
[3:16:52]
guy behave and let's stop that because everybody got enough of that.
[3:17:01]
You said today, why don't
[3:17:03]
come to your office and let you know what the, the reason you're thinking. But every
[3:17:13]
time when people come up in talk and you guys somewhere, you guys disappear.
[3:17:26]
After the two
[3:17:27]
meeting, they talking about the five-point-two item.
[3:17:36]
It's related to the mogul home.
[3:17:42]
They
[3:17:42]
had two or three meeting to make it clear. So everybody understand about it. I don't know
[3:17:50]
you guys, don't understand what's going on, or you guys acting stupid. Because they said
[3:18:00]
everybody here said one way and you guys talk about different way. Thank you.
[3:18:16]
We have two final speakers. It's Terry Reigns and Kai-Dow.
[3:18:42]
Take it for us. Less than two weeks until election day, Westminster voters need to pay attention
[3:18:46]
to the facts and both for the good candidates, not the crypts. Many of our Vietnamese voters
[3:18:50]
in particular have started to wake up and smell the stink of corruption in some candidates
[3:18:55]
on the ballot.
[3:18:56]
This or two, how we two is running at the direction of the larger corrupt gang, you know,
[3:18:59]
Tyler Tree, Senator of Michelle, good old van Tran, two has absolutely no mystery involvement
[3:19:05]
in Westminster and only moved here to run for office.
[3:19:07]
Sunday, illegally campaigned at the in CSD-80 Fifth Anniversary event has not been involved
[3:19:12]
at all with our city issues and is solely relying on the help of others unquestionable
[3:19:16]
endorsements, the Firefighter Association, was flat out wrong to endorse the only
[3:19:20]
candidate, District 2 voters not to endorse the only candidate, District 2 voters should vote
[3:19:26]
for.
[3:19:27]
And, comment and voice of reason, Carlos Manzosa, vote for Carlos Manzosa, District 2.
[3:19:31]
District 3, no one know.
[3:19:32]
Joseph, no, the arrestee of Clueless, classless thug who enjoy slandering people, violating
[3:19:37]
the law.
[3:19:37]
And, once the Manel are a great police department, a true embarrassment to our Vietnamese community.
[3:19:42]
He doesn't care about residents or the city.
[3:19:44]
He terrorized our mobile home park residents with slanderous lies and threatened to sue our
[3:19:49]
Department for rightfully arresting him.
[3:19:51]
Some are surprised I'm not even supporting KC Walbert from my own district.
[3:19:55]
His close ties and similar agenda of A&M Kwan is enough.
[3:19:58]
Let alone the trouble he caused on-
[3:20:00]
The now failed community foundation with his favorite appointing council member Amy Van West. I will be voting for Mark
[3:20:05]
Wynn. He's not involved in the Vietnamese political drum at all. He's just a regular guy, currently serving as President of Midway City, who wants to help our entire
[3:20:14]
community. I am confident. His relation by marriage only to Mayor Wynn will not negatively influence him on this council. If you don't know Mark
[3:20:21]
John Talk to him. You will come away from that conversation knowing he is the only choice for district 3.
[3:20:27]
So Mark went for district 3. As for midway city sanitary district boardways.
[3:20:32]
No one should vote for Tyler dip ever again for any public office, including this one.
[3:20:37]
Same goes for in West and Namquan win. Remember folks, felons flock together.
[3:20:42]
Kied out is not someone I can vote for either. So I'll be voting for Cheat Charlie win.
[3:20:45]
and probably unknown Andy Wynn from Midway City,
[3:20:48]
let's both the real trash Tyler Dip off of that board.
[3:20:53]
Now, let's see.
[3:20:55]
I don't know if we'll be waiting.
[3:21:10]
Amy calling me a racist again
[3:21:12]
and the Vietnamese people trash.
[3:21:13]
Keep it up, butter cut.
[3:21:15]
If you do,
[3:21:22]
you seriously need help.
[3:21:29]
You know, Mayor Wynn, with all their respect,
[3:21:32]
non-agenda comments should not come before public hearings
[3:21:34]
or even before all of the agenda items in my opinion.
[3:21:37]
And I had more to say, but I'm out of time.
[3:21:41]
So don't vote for Amy or NAMQ on for anything.
[3:21:49]
Our final speaker, Tidal.
[3:22:01]
Good evening, everyone.
[3:22:03]
I don't know if I should speak Vietnamese first
[3:22:06]
or English first.
[3:22:09]
Let me speak in English first.
[3:22:13]
Regarding NAMQ 1.
[3:22:16]
I think the shady force that is behind all these
[3:22:21]
Installing them going to the council, appointing him, to be our vice mayor, we try to protect him,
[3:22:30]
keeping him in office in the council, by pretending to recall him, so that after they fell, as they intended to,
[3:22:41]
No one else, including me, can start the actuary process for at least six months after that.
[3:22:51]
So please let allow me to speak in Vietnamese to explain to the Vietnamese people.
[3:22:58]
My Vietnamese American Vietnamese voters.
[3:24:09]
So, like Council Member Manso said, I think you used the political stance.
[3:24:17]
You said we shouldn't be allowed to campaign while we hear.
[3:24:23]
But this against the law for you guys to use the council, use your leadership to actually position in yourself.
[3:24:30]
for higher offers, all this big green, all these jobs, heckling, are just your ways, you know,
[3:24:41]
to get the majority of the council after the election, the next election, or even the special election,
[3:24:50]
you think you can replace the, I was feeling the seek of our Senator General, right?
[3:24:57]
It's illegal, it's an article.
[3:25:04]
Mayer, we have no further comments.
[3:25:07]
All right, I will recognize Councillor for the brief comment.
[3:25:11]
But before that, I'd like to have a brief comment.
[3:25:15]
Number one, first of all, I would want to respond to David Johnson,
[3:25:22]
Mr. David Johnson.
[3:25:23]
I don't know that you quote that I have to interrupt, but I want to make sure that
[3:25:31]
I am running the meeting, and it's my role that I have to stop sometime to interject to make sure that things are moving the right way.
[3:25:40]
So it's not intentionally to disrupt or intervene.
[3:25:47]
That's the second one is with you, Terrain.
[3:25:51]
With all due respect, I understand what you're saying.
[3:25:54]
But this is the item public adhering for the city.
[3:26:01]
It's not a public item for the vendors to be here.
[3:26:04]
That's number one.
[3:26:05]
Number two, we had the non-achindaised item,
[3:26:10]
overall communication for many years before
[3:26:13]
that we have it before anything else at the beginning of the things.
[3:26:17]
Why can't we do it now?
[3:26:19]
I just think about it and I mentioned it that we're beginning.
[3:26:21]
And because of their presentation, it took a longer, and I afraid that you are waiting so long,
[3:26:28]
I have to do that.
[3:26:29]
And I know that it's going to take a long to discuss about this item, and you guys, if
[3:26:34]
you guys are okay with that, then I'm okay with it, but I want to, I just want to be considered
[3:26:39]
it.
[3:26:40]
And now, I would like to recognize, if there's any prepared comment from the council.
[3:26:45]
Okay, council member, Wes, you are now recognized.
[3:26:47]
Okay, I want to address the last comment, Terry Reigns.
[3:26:50]
I know that you put that sign on your neck, regarding and supervisor Andrew Doe, Nam-Gwang and I.
[3:26:58]
I want to encourage you to get the facts straight, what I mean by that look at,
[3:27:01]
well, we first sworn in on December 9th, 2023.
[3:27:07]
Who sworn Charlie T. Win in the mayor? It was Andrew Doe.
[3:27:12]
So please get your facts straight before you spew out of this.
[3:27:15]
So that's very important because what you say, you want to get your
[3:27:19]
factory, okay?
[3:27:20]
Before you endorse and say other things.
[3:27:23]
So I took notes on that.
[3:27:24]
Now the other person, the gentleman earlier, I don't know his name
[3:27:29]
didn't get it, but the Vimmy sentiment who still have families here.
[3:27:33]
I appreciate, even though you don't live here, you come and speak out.
[3:27:37]
I know it's very disheartening to see the council here, majority of the
[3:27:41]
but they're infighting and that's how I felt when it first got on the council as well.
[3:27:46]
That's the reason why I cry because I shed tears because I see the activists on Charlie
[3:27:52]
sigh attacking Kimberly's sigh and they're keep fighting back and forth and that's disheartening
[3:27:57]
because I know that I'll Vietnamese community. We have many opportunities to grow and thrive and we have
[3:28:02]
very good characteristic that we can show the other community which is family-oriented. We work hard.
[3:28:10]
I want to address that to you.
[3:28:12]
I agree with you on that.
[3:28:14]
And so it's important that you continue to watch
[3:28:16]
because what I notice that you accuse me
[3:28:20]
and amquang of not understanding the mobile home
[3:28:24]
on the next one.
[3:28:25]
I just want to address that.
[3:28:27]
This is the last recording.
[3:28:29]
So I encourage you to watch the agenda item 5.2
[3:28:34]
on September 11th there.
[3:28:36]
And then tell me if I'm wrong, you know, for the happy to sit down with you.
[3:28:40]
Thank you very much.
[3:28:41]
It's a good comment for me.
[3:28:42]
And then I have Tammy, may I address Tammy?
[3:28:46]
Well, if you address one person, just like you, I'll address it.
[3:28:49]
I know.
[3:28:50]
But you are transmitting.
[3:28:52]
You address the comment briefly.
[3:28:54]
That's what I did.
[3:28:55]
No.
[3:28:55]
You want so far on the second one.
[3:28:59]
If you are going too long and I have to cut your off, please.
[3:29:03]
Okay.
[3:29:03]
So I will address, do a full home earlier he brought up, it's very concerning to me, because
[3:29:11]
all of us here elected official are in office, and we know FPPC compliance.
[3:29:18]
And when mayor, the concern was sent to the General Attorney of the State of California
[3:29:25]
and Todd Spitzer as well, it's very disheartening to hear that when you've been in politics
[3:29:31]
for a long time, Mr. Mayor.
[3:29:32]
You know when you fundraise for state senate, you have to open a state senate.
[3:29:37]
This is personal attack.
[3:29:38]
I'll try to address their food.
[3:29:40]
Okay.
[3:29:41]
I understand.
[3:29:42]
You are done.
[3:29:43]
You are done with a comment.
[3:29:44]
I will tell you.
[3:29:46]
You put money.
[3:29:46]
I do.
[3:29:48]
May I finish?
[3:29:48]
I will take it.
[3:29:49]
No.
[3:29:50]
At this time.
[3:29:50]
I have my right.
[3:29:52]
Okay.
[3:29:53]
At this time.
[3:29:53]
Is there any from the car?
[3:29:56]
If not, if not, I would like to close.
[3:30:00]
I mean the non agenda or authentication. Moving on to the next item is public hearing. Anyone wishing to speak on an item, open, public hearing, may speak in person.
[3:30:16]
Speakers, learning, public hearing comments, will each have three minutes to speak on each public hearing item, which we have only one to today.
[3:30:24]
Any person wishing to address the CDC also in person should complete a green speaker?
[3:30:36]
Yes, I was in the ruptime.
[3:30:39]
Any person wishing to address the CDC also in person should complete a green speaker slip
[3:30:45]
that is provided at the entrance to the CDC and submit the card to the CDC.
[3:30:51]
When your name is called, please step to the podium at the time and stick your name
[3:30:57]
in city of resident optional for the record.
[3:31:02]
And I was reminded by the year 20 is almost 10 o'clock.
[3:31:08]
So at this time, I would like to make a motion to move on,
[3:31:13]
to extend the city council meeting beyond the 10 o'clock meeting.
[3:31:18]
There is a motion in the second on the floor.
[3:31:22]
Thank you.
[3:31:22]
I have a motion made by Mayor Winn, seconded by Councilman Fan West.
[3:31:26]
This is to extend the meeting task 10 p.m.
[3:31:28]
Percy policy.
[3:31:30]
I'll go to call roll.
[3:31:33]
You go ahead and you go ahead and call the roll and see
[3:31:37]
can speak on on that.
[3:31:39]
Councilman Fan West.
[3:31:41]
Okay.
[3:31:41]
At this point you want to speak for you.
[3:31:44]
So now I can, you undo my mic, so, yes, my vote is the council member Monzo.
[3:31:52]
Council member Win, Vice Mayor Hill?
[3:31:55]
Mayor Win?
[3:31:56]
Yes.
[3:31:56]
Motion carried for zero.
[3:31:58]
All right, so please call for some specificer for me.
[3:32:02]
I have something to say.
[3:32:05]
Thank you, Mayor.
[3:32:06]
I may or may have not have a conflict of interest.
[3:32:10]
So, I'm Aaron, the side of the cautious, I need to want to, I want to recuse myself just to be safe.
[3:32:17]
So, thank you.
[3:32:18]
Thank you.
[3:32:18]
Yeah, thank you for, for recusing yourself.
[3:32:20]
But I ask you, please verify, because you said that may or may not.
[3:32:29]
So, you know, I need you to verify with the city attorney if it's an impact
[3:32:35]
If you're a decision-making, then if not, then I ask you to come back.
[3:32:40]
Why don't you both go out and talk about it, please?
[3:32:43]
Well, I think I need to move myself to do here.
[3:32:47]
Because potential conflict, that's what Mr. Monzo,
[3:32:51]
because we both got a donation from the Billboard person.
[3:32:54]
Who's going to see you?
[3:32:55]
No, you don't, you don't know.
[3:32:56]
So I'll say, you don't know my thing.
[3:32:58]
You can speak for yourself.
[3:32:59]
You can speak for yourself.
[3:33:00]
You can speak for yourself.
[3:33:02]
You can speak for yourself.
[3:33:05]
If we can look at your record on your 640, you know now.
[3:33:10]
If you decide to release yourself, it's your,
[3:33:12]
it's your first six days question, you go ahead and recuse yourself.
[3:33:16]
But for council member Menzo, I ask you,
[3:33:20]
and I ask you the same thing, if you have any doubt about it,
[3:33:23]
please talk to the city attorney because this is the continual item.
[3:33:27]
It's a second time already.
[3:33:28]
I need you to make sure that you are in part by doing it.
[3:33:31]
Excuse yourself.
[3:33:34]
Thank you.
[3:33:35]
Go ahead.
[3:33:38]
Go ahead.
[3:33:39]
Go ahead.
[3:33:39]
Go ahead.
[3:33:39]
Go ahead.
[3:33:40]
Go ahead.
[3:33:41]
I'm just funny.
[3:33:41]
I can help him with the decision.
[3:33:49]
Thank you.
[3:33:51]
So a 4.1.
[3:33:52]
The public hearing is continuing from the October 9, 2020-24.
[3:33:56]
We're going to see the council meeting.
[3:33:58]
This is also a first reading of billboard on his amending chapter 17.330 of the Wessonship
[3:34:07]
Municipal Code.
[3:34:09]
At this time, I'd like to go ahead and ask for a stop report.
[3:34:14]
Good evening, Mayor.
[3:34:15]
Council members, we do have a brief presentation by our team.
[3:34:19]
Ryan Salzys here.
[3:34:21]
I'm a city manager's office, and our contract principal planners step in to my unit as
[3:34:25]
here as well.
[3:34:27]
Good evening, Mayor, by Mayor and members of the City Council.
[3:34:33]
Over the last several years, the City Council and staff have undertaken several initiatives
[3:34:37]
to beautify the community and enhance community economic development.
[3:34:42]
This has included several meetings with the City Council to discuss and explore creative
[3:34:46]
revenue streams, including strategic planning workshops dating back to 2022, and City Council
[3:34:51]
meetings to select a qualified firm for the use of city owned property to develop and maintain
[3:34:56]
electronic billboards.
[3:34:58]
The item being presented tonight is
[3:35:00]
With the next step in the city's ongoing work effort, this project represents a continuation of the city's progress on strategic plan goal number 1 to achieve financial stability.
[3:35:11]
As previously stated in the prior public hearing, billboards are a permitted sign type in the city. They require a conditional use permit and are subject to planning commission approval.
[3:35:20]
In recent years, the city has experienced a growing amount of interest from prospective
[3:35:24]
billboard developers and those experiences have shed light on the fact that the city's
[3:35:29]
billboard regulations are outdated and big U.S. and generally inconsistent with modern
[3:35:33]
practices.
[3:35:36]
The city has initiated a zoning text amendment to the Westminster Municipal Code, which
[3:35:40]
will refer to as the billboard ordinance, the proposed ordinance aims to accomplish several
[3:35:44]
goals.
[3:35:45]
It creates clear and consistent standards for the development and design of future billboards,
[3:35:49]
including regulations to prevent potential impacts to the public.
[3:35:54]
It addresses digital and electronic billboards,
[3:35:57]
and it formally establishes a public benefits program.
[3:36:01]
And last ordinance will only affect current and future applications.
[3:36:05]
Any existing billboards currently in the city
[3:36:07]
would not be impacted by this ordinance.
[3:36:11]
Can you, can I stop you for a minute?
[3:36:13]
I like to ask that there's 20, if it's okay for your decision on that.
[3:36:19]
Yeah, we talked about it and actually did quite a bit of research today, so currently where
[3:36:24]
things stand is that in the advice would be to seek an advice letter from the FPC or wait
[3:36:32]
out the period until after the donation because there's, it would seem, I think, I think it
[3:36:40]
pushed him to shove that the FPC would find no conflicts, but it's difficult for him to come out
[3:36:47]
participate under those circumstances when it's unclear that whether it is a conflict or not.
[3:36:55]
Because I think the, let me just explain the person at the issue or whoever gave the
[3:36:59]
donation, doesn't have an active application currently pending, so the question is whether
[3:37:04]
or not that creates a conflict or not. So we may seek an advice letter on this one.
[3:37:09]
Well, my question for you, you said that the person who donate to him or sponsor him does not have, we don't have that, please don't leave, because we don't have the core.
[3:37:27]
We don't have the core.
[3:37:28]
There we go.
[3:37:29]
At this time, we don't have the core.
[3:37:32]
This is the intentionally to leave that's meeting.
[3:37:35]
So that we can, we can be seen, thank you very much, all right.
[3:37:43]
I'm sorry that I have to recess the meeting at this time called for recess until we have the core.
[3:37:50]
It's looked like that we are not going to have it.
[3:37:55]
So I will wait for five minutes and if not then we have to move on because we can't wait forever.
[3:38:47]
Well, I don't know why, yes, I question. Thank you.
[3:38:52]
Please, at the time now, is...
[3:38:54]
You can look at the video.
[3:38:55]
Can, oh, no. I would like to reconvene the bus.
[3:38:58]
See the castle meeting.
[3:39:00]
We'll go off. Please.
[3:39:03]
Mayor Win.
[3:39:04]
I'm here.
[3:39:05]
Vice Mayor, how?
[3:39:07]
Over here.
[3:39:09]
You still need to be here.
[3:39:11]
This item is not done yet.
[3:39:13]
Councilmember Wynn.
[3:39:16]
Here you do have a quorum with Councilwoman Fanwess and
[3:39:20]
Councilmember Manzo, refused from the item 4.1.
[3:39:23]
Thank you very much.
[3:39:27]
At this time here, I think it's not going anywhere for this item.
[3:39:34]
My personal feeling is that we need to continue this item later on.
[3:39:39]
But at the same time, I understand that you are ready for public comments.
[3:39:45]
You can do it now or you can wait until later, it's up to you.
[3:39:48]
But if you are willing to speak as a public comment today, you are also allowed to come up and speak at this time.
[3:40:00]
Here from here in City Council, question for staff. I don't have anything in anybody, have anything for the staff.
[3:40:07]
No, so we can go ahead and open for public comment. So please.
[3:40:15]
Our first speaker is Jacqueline Wong, followed by Michael Verengia.
[3:40:29]
Good evening, Mayor, city attorney, council members, staff.
[3:40:36]
I just wish that the city would engage with the community and stakeholders, for example, the
[3:40:44]
signowners and landowners prior to passing the new sign ordinance to get real-world feedback
[3:40:51]
and address constituents' concerns.
[3:40:53]
That's it.
[3:40:54]
Thank you.
[3:40:55]
Good night.
[3:40:57]
Our next speaker is Michael Verengia, followed by our final speaker, Terry Reins.
[3:41:06]
Thank you.
[3:41:07]
None of this is new information, so they're really sorry, sorry, the time cease to be accused that you can't weaken.
[3:41:20]
All right, thank you.
[3:41:22]
None of this is new information, so this really shouldn't drag on.
[3:41:26]
Now that's assuming that everybody's read their background information, right?
[3:41:34]
But I would like to see this go forward, and I think we have representatives out here from the billboard companies.
[3:41:41]
I know that they would like to see this go forward all, so it's a form of income for the
[3:41:49]
city. It can generate some good revenue, so let's try not to talk to death. That really
[3:41:56]
shouldn't be a problem because she's not in here. So you know, everybody knows she likes to
[3:42:02]
hear herself speak, so this should be good. Hopefully you read your background information
[3:42:06]
in this time and it'll go smooth and you'll understand what's going on.
[3:42:11]
Thank you.
[3:42:13]
We have two final speakers, Terry Reigns and KIDAL.
[3:42:39]
I just want to briefly come, because you had the sign on.
[3:42:43]
It does seem to be calling these individuals fellents, but I'm not sure.
[3:42:46]
I don't know that you've presented.
[3:42:48]
Do you have any information?
[3:42:50]
I understand that.
[3:42:50]
It is a bit deceptive in that regard.
[3:42:52]
To be determined.
[3:42:53]
Let me tell you what Terry, if you don't pick that off,
[3:42:57]
You don't have a column.
[3:42:59]
I don't have a what?
[3:43:00]
You don't have a column to continue.
[3:43:03]
I take that off.
[3:43:06]
I didn't issue that order.
[3:43:10]
So, I've got a column.
[3:43:12]
All right.
[3:43:15]
So, again, we don't have the column.
[3:43:17]
We have no column here.
[3:43:18]
We have no column here.
[3:43:20]
Yeah.
[3:43:21]
And again, you have everything right to speak.
[3:43:22]
I just wanted to be careful that the
[3:43:24]
Famitory statements, unless you have evidence that someone is a felon.
[3:43:28]
To be determined.
[3:43:29]
I understand that.
[3:43:30]
That doesn't mean statement today, it does it, it says to be determined.
[3:43:33]
Why do you need to not be able to even read those letters that you need?
[3:43:35]
Well, that's not on my fault.
[3:43:37]
Okay, I won't go out to you further, it's just, it's for you.
[3:43:40]
You're just, it's a nightmare.
[3:43:41]
It's actually a caution to you, that that's all.
[3:43:43]
Oh, thank you, Christian, for watching out for me.
[3:43:45]
I'm so excited.
[3:43:47]
Mayor, we no longer have a quarrel.
[3:43:58]
I don't know where I can do right now.
[3:44:00]
I can't even continue this item.
[3:44:05]
Okay, I will come back to this.
[3:44:07]
So, can you please tell me, you tell me you did it back?
[3:44:09]
I can't. I have only two. At this time here, I would like to ask staff to
[3:44:19]
I'm not going to discuss about item 4.1. Ask the council to come back for
[3:44:25]
and we start from 1.
[3:44:29]
Okay?
[3:44:31]
Okay. All right. There's no action to 4.1.
[3:44:38]
staff, can you get Council to come back for a regular business, please?
[3:44:55]
Trying to help you.
[3:44:58]
It's the ban, sorry.
[3:45:18]
Thank you.
[3:45:23]
Let me just clarify. You're fully entitled to where the sign, if you want. It's just, it was a warning, just that it could be
[3:45:33]
seen as the family for it.
[3:45:39]
Please, please.
[3:45:40]
Oh, I'll just refrain that for after the meeting, please.
[3:45:44]
Right now.
[3:45:46]
Right now, the meeting is still going on.
[3:45:48]
I'm waiting for.
[3:45:50]
We have no current.
[3:45:52]
We have no current.
[3:45:56]
OK.
[3:45:57]
Then stop the meeting at this time.
[3:45:59]
Don't record it.
[3:46:01]
Thank you.
[3:46:01]
on the back of the board.
[3:46:33]
First, the time now is 10, 16, and I would like to continue the City Council meeting tonight.
[3:46:42]
And we are not going to discuss anything about 4.1, but we are going with the regular
[3:46:47]
business.
[3:46:48]
So please take the local.
[3:46:52]
May I win?
[3:46:53]
I'm here.
[3:46:53]
Vice Mayor Hill.
[3:46:55]
I'm here.
[3:46:55]
Councilwoman Fan West.
[3:46:57]
Council Member Monzo.
[3:47:02]
Thank you very much.
[3:47:06]
Five point one consideration of American rescue plan act of 2021,
[3:47:12]

[3:47:19]
I'd like to open up for Council discussion if there's any.
[3:47:27]
Now, I'm motion to approve.
[3:47:28]
I say can it?
[3:47:30]
I'm a motion made by Council Member Monzo, seconded by Mayor Win.
[3:47:35]
This is to consider authorizing the mayor and behalf of the city of Westminster to enter into memorandum of understanding
[3:47:41]

[3:48:38]

[3:48:45]
Next item is 5.2.
[3:48:47]
A word of contract for the Playwell Renovation Project for Bozachiga.
[3:48:52]
Wessons of Village, Berlin Green College.
[3:49:04]
I have been motion made by Councilmember Monso, second by Mayor Win. This is to approve the award of contract to the lowest and responsible bidder and the amount of 1,503,645 dollars and 48 cents to western state builders and corporation.
[3:49:18]

Yes. Council Member Win. Yes. Vice Mayor Ho. Yes. Mayor Win. Yes.
[3:49:42]
Motion carried for zero.
[3:49:44]
Next, we will consider a sponsorship for
[3:49:47]
a Western School District first and
[3:49:49]
your Pickable Tournament.
[3:49:52]
I understand that the Western
[3:49:56]
District are very generous to our
[3:49:59]
um
[3:50:00]
And they are very supportive. I would say, they are very supportive to the city of Westminster for any event that we put up, because they understand that it's a community and this is what they did.
[3:50:14]
And so what they are about to do is also for the community. So I move to approve this project with the Ignite sponsor, which is $2,000.
[3:50:27]
I have a motion made by Mayor Wind, second by Councilmember Monzo, to approve the Ignite
[3:50:32]
sponsor of $3,000 to the Westminster School District for a city sponsorship for the
[3:50:37]
first annual pickable tournament. I've got a call for roll. Councilmember Monzo? Yes. Councilmember
[3:50:43]
Wind? Yes. Vice Mayor Hill? Yes. Mayor Wind? Yes. Motion carried for zero. 5.4 2021 to 4.4
[3:50:52]
of all of the view. I believe that we talk plenty about this on today, already, and this item is also
[3:51:00]
receiving file. I move to approve.
[3:51:05]
Second, but I want to just take the time to think our great staff, and especially Vanessa, for your hard work and dedication, and
[3:51:15]
everybody has said this before. I'm saying again, it took everybody. Every single member of our team
[3:51:20]
out there, participated and made this possible.
[3:51:25]
I wish Vinnie was here, I should have,
[3:51:27]
I should have embarrassed him when he was here,
[3:51:29]
but he really rocked the house.
[3:51:32]
I don't know he was that great of a singer,
[3:51:34]
and then also our public works director, Jake Know, as well.
[3:51:39]
And this now forget our city manager, Christine Corden.
[3:51:43]
I don't know if she did a good job singing as well.
[3:51:46]
So thank you for being a part of it.
[3:51:48]
and really enjoyed ourselves out there.
[3:51:51]
So, thank you.
[3:51:53]
Talk a little about that.
[3:51:56]
If it don't have a motion is taken on the floor,
[3:51:58]
but you still can talk about it.
[3:52:02]
I have, do you don't have it?
[3:52:05]
Oh, I give, oh, I had the video.
[3:52:06]
I have a script, it's very interesting,
[3:52:12]
because script that I want to show it to you all.
[3:52:15]
But the thing is, I know that community director, services,
[3:52:21]
that the director, she worked really hard day and night.
[3:52:25]
She was out there 24, 24 hours a day.
[3:52:30]
And I know that she was thinking about it when she at home.
[3:52:34]
But the good part is, I see that she enjoyed the event.
[3:52:39]
I was away from her, trying to take the video from her.
[3:52:44]
she was dancing and singing and you know, I want to show it to you.
[3:52:48]
I give it to him and he forgot to bring it today.
[3:52:53]
So tonight, so I will share it to you individually.
[3:53:00]
Why don't you give us your phone number or he will text it to you anyway.
[3:53:07]
You to see that our staff, they work hard, but they enjoy it because they've been
[3:53:12]
meaningful for the city, that's why they enjoy even though it took a lot of time for a lot of effort from that.
[3:53:19]
Thank you very much.
[3:53:21]
On behalf of the City Council and City Spa, thank you and you and to your team members.
[3:53:29]
Anything else from that?
[3:53:33]
I wish that.
[3:53:34]
Let me see this again.
[3:53:35]
I promise we forgot about.
[3:53:37]
We have a really talented staff.
[3:53:39]
I forgot about Brad Wade as well.
[3:53:41]
And also Mary Boyche was did a great job as well.
[3:53:47]
So we have, I said, Jake, Jake, he was,
[3:53:50]
I think he might be a pro, he might think in my moonlight,
[3:53:54]
he moonlights with the professional singer,
[3:53:57]
but our staff did an awesome job, so thank you very much.
[3:54:01]
All right, God bless me, no hope.
[3:54:03]
Yeah, I just want to say that was quite an undertaking.
[3:54:07]
I'm looking at the budget, the revenue, and expenditures.
[3:54:10]
I'm very impressed. I don't want to say I probably can't do anything better than what you've done,
[3:54:23]
but one thing I don't know if you've done this, but you know it would be nice to have more volunteers
[3:54:29]
to help because I mean that's a lot of work and I can see event staffing is 55,000 and you guys deserve
[3:54:38]
every penny of it, but I think, you know, if you have more time to plan and you can involve
[3:54:45]
more people, you know, I'm sure you can always use the help. And what can I say? I really
[3:54:54]
and join myself. I came back, they probably two or three days in a row.
[3:55:00]
I really enjoyed and my friends, my family as well. Thank you so much.
[3:55:05]
And I don't forget to thank every department from Public Works, from WPDs and from all our staff.
[3:55:15]
I think that we all hands on deck on those days, so I would appreciate that.
[3:55:20]
It's just for either city manager and also assistant city managers or we're there to help.
[3:55:25]
So, I also want to thank our community, they come out and enjoy their event and for those who not only sponsor, but for those who came out to perform the activities during the four days event.
[3:55:42]
I would like to thank each and every of them and hopefully that you can come back and help us with the next event.
[3:55:49]
Thank you very much. You don't have to say anything.
[3:55:52]
If you want to say anything, you're welcome to say.
[3:55:57]
You want to say anything?
[3:56:01]
Thank you.
[3:56:01]
Thank you for the support and the leadership from the same
[3:56:04]
manager's office to allow our team to put on events for the
[3:56:09]
community like this.
[3:56:09]
It's an honor to be able to do that.
[3:56:11]
So we appreciate the support.
[3:56:13]
All right.
[3:56:13]
Thank you very much.
[3:56:14]
We have motion and second on the floor.
[3:56:16]
Call for the vote please.
[3:56:18]
Thank you mayor.
[3:56:18]
Motion made by Mayor Wyn.
[3:56:20]
Seconded by Councillor Monza to receive and file, got a call roll.
[3:56:24]
Councillor Monza.
[3:56:25]
Yes.
[3:56:25]
Councillor Wynn.
[3:56:26]
Yes.
[3:56:27]
Vice Mayor Hill.
[3:56:28]
Mayor Wynn.
[3:56:29]
Yes.
[3:56:30]
Motion carried for zero.
[3:56:32]
Okay.
[3:56:33]
We are getting into one resolution to the now.
[3:56:36]
It was fake news.
[3:56:37]
We laid it through mobile home parks.
[3:56:39]
Evictions.
[3:56:41]
And mixed use analysis.
[3:56:43]
We laid it through strategic plan.
[3:56:46]
Goes an objective.
[3:56:48]
Do we want to discuss? I move to approve. I have a motion made by Vice Mayor
[3:56:58]
House, seconded by Mayor Wayne. This is to adopt a resolution entitled, a resolution
[3:57:03]
of the mayor and City Council of the City of Westminster, California, denouncing recent
[3:57:08]
fake news related to mobile home parks, evictions and mixed use analysis related to strategic
[3:57:13]
Pangles and Objectives.
[3:57:15]
We're going to call roll.
[3:57:18]
Councilwoman Fian-Wesce.
[3:57:20]
Before I vote, when you put about fake news,
[3:57:25]
you didn't put in there on the resolution that basically
[3:57:29]
stated who voted on September 11th.
[3:57:33]
The two council maired Charity Tinkuin,
[3:57:38]
Kimberly Ho and Carlos voted to pass through
[3:57:42]
that mixed use rezoning.
[3:57:46]
So that's moving forward.
[3:57:48]
You guys are hiding this from the resident,
[3:57:51]
hiding this from the owners,
[3:57:53]
and we have come many times to you,
[3:57:55]
especially earlier today too,
[3:57:57]
to say that have a resolution to protect
[3:57:59]
the Momo Home Park and the resident who lives there,
[3:58:02]
but you guys deny it and decline it all the time
[3:58:06]
because you guys don't truly care for the poor
[3:58:09]
and the senior citizen who lives
[3:58:11]
in those mobile home parks.
[3:58:13]
So what is your vote?
[3:58:15]
I just want to remind you that this is the
[3:58:17]
time for you.
[3:58:17]
Yeah, you guys, because you guys have the majority vote?
[3:58:20]
You guys voted.
[3:58:21]
I'm sorry to stop you there, but this is the time for us to do the vote.
[3:58:27]
And you are welcome to have the comments, but we are not discussing about the item.
[3:58:32]
So please, briefly stated yourself.
[3:58:36]
And then vote for it, please.
[3:58:37]
Okay, you allow Kimberly and Monza speak earlier on the item that we're going to vote
[3:58:46]
Distrupt me of telling why I'm going to vote, certain way
[3:58:50]
That's that's really ridiculous
[3:58:52]
Go ahead and offer the cut this item. There's that you are you know, partial on this
[3:58:58]
You favor Kimberly and Monza because that's what you guys do and make motion and then a second then you didn't let the council hold on
[3:59:08]
What the heck is that?
[3:59:09]
What the heck is that?
[3:59:10]
Yeah.
[3:59:11]
How did you say that?
[3:59:12]
We have five minutes which you hear?
[3:59:14]
The heck is that she's not here to discuss the item.
[3:59:16]
And you are here not voicing your opinion.
[3:59:19]
And you agree to go to the vote.
[3:59:21]
Okay.
[3:59:22]
Right now she's not, she's not,
[3:59:24]
What the heck is that?
[3:59:25]
We are here to go on the vote.
[3:59:27]
I will go on the vote.
[3:59:28]
I will go on the vote.
[3:59:28]
I will go on the vote.
[3:59:29]
You should have five.
[3:59:30]
She should just defend the item.
[3:59:33]
So what is that?
[3:59:34]
Let her talk.
[3:59:36]
I let her talk.
[3:59:36]
Okay.
[3:59:37]
Did that let her talk?
[3:59:38]
Okay then.
[3:59:39]
Let her talk.
[3:59:40]
No, no, no, no.
[3:59:41]
Let her have five minutes talking.
[3:59:43]
Yeah.
[3:59:45]
You want to be fair, right?
[3:59:46]
Let's go ahead for five minutes.
[3:59:53]
Sure.
[3:59:55]
You watch what you say.
[3:59:57]
Okay?
[3:59:58]
I love you.
[3:59:59]
Call me so many times.
[4:00:00]
This time you call me Chuck, you are not allowed to say that to your bill, because I am, I am the bill. I am, the same rows of you are.
[4:00:10]
Please, Chuck, I say that.
[4:00:11]
I'm American, I would issue a warning to Councilmember Wynn.
[4:00:16]
Yes, thank you, sir.
[4:00:16]
There you go.
[4:00:17]
This is so important.
[4:00:19]
Thank you.
[4:00:21]
This is so important.
[4:00:22]
This is a very important issue.
[4:00:24]
That's why I could use your mail.
[4:00:26]
I agree with one of those.
[4:00:27]
This is my turn to talk.
[4:00:28]
This is very interesting.
[4:00:30]
It's also you are disrupting the meeting.
[4:00:32]
So it's the first warning for you too.
[4:00:34]
So now go ahead and go ahead and finish your five.
[4:00:39]
Okay, go ahead.
[4:00:40]
I will go at the end because do you guys all?
[4:00:43]
No.
[4:00:43]
If you don't work right now, it's done.
[4:00:45]
Okay, we have voting right now.
[4:00:48]
Okay, go ahead and call for the vote.
[4:00:52]
Go ahead and vote.
[4:00:53]
Go ahead and vote.
[4:00:53]
So, we're doing a roll call vote, so Councilmember Mondo?
[4:00:58]
Councilmember Win?
[4:00:59]
No.
[4:01:01]
Vice Mayor Hill?
[4:01:02]
Yes.
[4:01:02]
Mayor Win.
[4:01:03]
Yes.
[4:01:04]
Motion carry three one.
[4:01:06]
Okay, thank you very much.
[4:01:08]
Let's move on for item 9.2.
[4:01:12]
Consideration of resolution establishing the city of Washington,
[4:01:15]
the rules of the quorum and civility from the mayor and city council during city council meetings.
[4:01:22]
At this time, I would like to open up for any question, discussion, and once I want to remind
[4:01:29]
that what the time that we are not discussing anymore, we are moving to the voting, then
[4:01:36]
you are only allowed to do a half a brief comment before the vote.
[4:01:41]
This is the time that we can open up for the discussion.
[4:01:44]
The five minutes.
[4:01:48]
All right.
[4:01:48]
Thank you.
[4:01:49]
So, can I say go ahead, go ahead and clarify that?
[4:01:56]
On this, it was pointed out in the staff report that there's a reference to 38513
[4:02:01]
that really should be 3681.
[4:02:04]
So, I do acknowledge that that isn't correctly stated in the staff report.
[4:02:08]
It's not substantive because it's not in the ordinance,
[4:02:11]
but thank you for that reference.
[4:02:14]
And the other thing is the title to the item and the agenda does say resolution
[4:02:18]
that should read ordinance, but if the agenda item as listed on the agenda also refers to it is being an ordinance.
[4:02:27]
So again, non-sumstive, but again, it should have set ordinance. So I just want to make sure that's correct.
[4:02:32]
Thank you very much. Thank you.
[4:02:35]
Let's see the attorney. So at this time here, I like to open up for discussion. And once again, I repeat that once we are done with the discussion and we move to the voting for the item.
[4:02:48]
than we are not going to continue to discuss about the item again.
[4:02:53]
So, say anything from the council.
[4:02:57]
I'll go, Mayor.
[4:02:59]
Council Member Mezzo.
[4:03:01]
Thank you, Mayor.
[4:03:02]
So, you know, this is something that, you know,
[4:03:06]
glad to see that on the agenda because it's something that we should have done a
[4:03:10]
wall back ago to make to get their meetings back to being a productive meeting.
[4:03:15]
And our meetings have been hijacked and literally turned into a syshow, you know, being
[4:03:25]
on a council for four years, you meet people, you make friends, you make acquaintances
[4:03:31]
in other cities.
[4:03:33]
But when you go to an event like the Cal Cities event where there's quite a few representatives
[4:03:39]
there's elected officials, staff members of staff from cities across California, and everybody
[4:03:47]
and when you first think they say to you, I'm sorry that you have to go through that.
[4:03:55]
Then it's horribly bad that we've literally become the talk of talent and a bad way, and
[4:04:09]
to have these meetings conducted, so this respectfully, as you just waiting is one of our colleagues
[4:04:18]
using that type of language, you know, with any of us up here, it's just not something,
[4:04:25]
it's not professional, it's not respectful, and we have a quarter of conduct, we have a quarter
[4:04:30]
of ethics, we have a Robert's rules of order, they're made for a reason, and this is something that
[4:04:37]
we must do to get order in our city and get order in our council meetings.
[4:04:44]
So I'm glad that this is on.
[4:04:47]
So thank you.
[4:04:47]
Thank you.
[4:04:48]
All right.
[4:04:48]
Thank you.
[4:04:50]
Any other council member?
[4:04:53]
Yes.
[4:04:54]
Please.
[4:04:55]
Okay.
[4:04:56]
So nine point two.
[4:04:58]
I noticed on here.
[4:04:59]
and just...
[4:05:00]
This basically talk about the council during council meeting. Are you excluding yourself, Mr. Mayor?
[4:05:14]
Because you're talking about interruption and stuff like that.
[4:05:19]
So what about you and I guess let me ask you to answer the answer.
[4:05:22]
I have the right answer.
[4:05:23]
I have the right answer.
[4:05:24]
I have the right answer.
[4:05:27]
So if the mayor interrupt does he, is he applying to this ordinance as well, or exclude himself from this agenda?
[4:05:42]
I think the intent is to apply to all council members.
[4:05:47]
Then I think it's a, I want to, I want to make sure it's clear from here.
[4:05:52]
I reclaim my time to the mayor.
[4:05:54]
Yes.
[4:05:54]
Yes.
[4:05:55]
I have the floor.
[4:05:56]
Please let me finish.
[4:05:58]
You give me five minutes.
[4:05:59]
Now have three minutes and fifty six.
[4:06:01]
Thank you.
[4:06:04]
Okay.
[4:06:04]
Let me clarify my response.
[4:06:06]
Let's clarify my response.
[4:06:08]
It's intended to apply to all council members,
[4:06:11]
but there's very specific references in the ordinance
[4:06:14]
that talk about deferring to the mayor
[4:06:17]
and deferring to the chair of the meeting.
[4:06:20]
And I think that's maybe what your concern is.
[4:06:23]
Yes.
[4:06:23]
So there's very specific references to the chair of the meeting.
[4:06:27]
Yes, I understand that but the thing is that what if the mayor interrupt?
[4:06:31]
Because if you look at this, it says if the council interrupt,
[4:06:34]
like what the mayor just did to me when I have my five minutes, he's interrupting me.
[4:06:39]
What if that's the case? What do we do? He needs to apply to this.
[4:06:43]
The thing is that if mayor you're not afraid to live to a higher standard,
[4:06:48]
like you're expecting all the council here, then you should say mayor and council.
[4:06:52]
The last thing I would substitute us if we can edit, just add the mayor to it, to wear
[4:07:00]
this council member, add mayor to it.
[4:07:04]
There's no motion yet, if you are welcome to make motion.
[4:07:09]
So Mr. Mayor, are you afraid to be a part of this higher subject?
[4:07:12]
I am not afraid of anything you want to make a motion go ahead and do your motion as a way
[4:07:17]
Why did you exclude yourself from the agenda item because you do interrupt, too?
[4:07:23]
Sometimes like David Johnson have mentioned how many times you interrupt Mr. Mayor.
[4:07:29]
So I think this should apply to all of us alike.
[4:07:34]
And so I think Mr. Mayor, under where the resolution says, the council member, I think
[4:07:40]
you should add Westminster Mayor and Council because every letter the staff address us is
[4:07:47]
So all of us are like, so I think it's important, Mr. Mayor, if we can add that in,
[4:07:54]
to basically Mayor and Council on the ordinance.
[4:07:58]
Because on here, it's a city council member.
[4:08:02]
I look at it and I highlight everything.
[4:08:05]
So, Mr. Mayor, if you want to look at it.
[4:08:08]
So, Mr. Mayor, so let me read out to you since you said,
[4:08:13]
If you're not a fray, Mr. Mayor, then add your name to it, where it says council member,
[4:08:21]
council is disruptive, maybe say council mayor and council if disruptive, okay, that's one.
[4:08:28]
And then other area, where it says the member of the city council refrain from conducting speech,
[4:08:35]
the members of the city council, the person's on the floor, you add mayor and council,
[4:08:40]
if the person's on the floor have the floor,
[4:08:43]
that we respect that.
[4:08:45]
And then right here in the bottom of it,
[4:08:47]
it is in 10th of city council to modify
[4:08:49]
and authorize the standards.
[4:08:51]
See, the 10th of the mayor and city council
[4:08:53]
to modify that.
[4:08:55]
I think that's important because we address all of us.
[4:08:58]
And the rule of decorum to city council members.
[4:09:02]
So the decorum for the rule of decorum for mayor
[4:09:05]
and city council member is to adopt and apply.
[4:09:08]
So, all of this in here, so if we can just add mayor to it, I think that will be appropriate and if you're not afraid of that, living to the same standard that you set for all of us, I think Mr. Mayor, you should be okay with that.
[4:09:29]
So, Mr. Mayor, are you okay with that?
[4:09:32]
I'm not going to respond, are you claiming yourself your time, wait for you to fit that?
[4:09:38]
Okay, so that's my one motion.
[4:09:41]
And then also on this, I noticed that it's very dictator, you know,
[4:09:48]
in silence the voice of District 104.
[4:09:51]
And, you know, how are you going to monitor how you give someone a Mr. Meiner?
[4:09:56]
Mr. Meiner, your time is done.
[4:10:02]
I'm done with my question. Okay, and that's the matter. How do you monitor someone get a misdemeanor from Mr. City Attorney?
[4:10:11]
How do you do that? I just want to know. How do you we monitor? Are you calling on me to speak?
[4:10:16]
Yes, please. Okay, I have a question. No, please.
[4:10:20]
I was lying to you on your side.
[4:10:24]
The king of three does not have the right to do already.
[4:10:28]
Your time is up.
[4:10:30]
You wait your next round.
[4:10:37]
At this time, I recognize the right to go ahead.
[4:10:39]
Yes, I would recommend that we add,
[4:10:42]
leaving the dyes repeatedly for all periods of time.
[4:10:45]
And missing discussions and votes and going out to the audience during the meeting.
[4:10:53]
So to me, that...
[4:10:53]
Do you have specific places where you want to make those changes?
[4:10:57]
Whatever you think makes sense, I would have to say,
[4:11:07]
yes, I'm getting to that.
[4:11:17]
So under behavior of the council,
[4:11:24]
wherever you think makes sense, as long as it's on there.
[4:11:32]
So the first one I recommend is leaving the dies repeatedly for long periods of time, missing
[4:11:39]
the entire discussions and votes, missing entire discussions and votes and going out to
[4:11:46]
the audience during the meeting,
[4:11:52]
and then another one I like to add
[4:11:56]
is about the close session.
[4:11:58]
I mean, you know, part of our job is to attend and vote during the close sessions, however we vote, but we need to attend, we need to be there,
[4:12:14]
and that is all for me.
[4:12:20]
Is there a concern of having recording and speaking on the diast?
[4:12:27]
Yes.
[4:12:30]
First, can a city attorney clarify something?
[4:12:34]
Is the mayor a member of the city council?
[4:12:39]
Yes, the mayor is a member of the city council.
[4:12:44]
My other concern that is that that is we've had members of the city council go down into the public and cost disruptions from that, from down at the public.
[4:12:56]
I think we need to look into, if a member of the city council is going to go down into the public
[4:13:03]
and cost a disruption from there, I think the rules that the public has should apply to that member,
[4:13:11]
because I feel that members voting is right as the rules that we have up here on the dice
[4:13:19]
when we go down there, if we were to go down there at the public,
[4:13:24]
We need to, I think we should be following you, avoid your rights as a city council member
[4:13:31]
here and now you're a member of the public, so I think that's something that we need
[4:13:35]
to look into and all this is sad to say that we have to do this but we have to do this
[4:13:42]
because we're trying to become a profession up here and obviously that is not happening.
[4:13:47]
So that is the reason why we're doing this and I think it's something that we have to do
[4:13:52]
to get control and have a productive city council meetings.
[4:13:57]
So that's all I got, Mayor.
[4:14:00]
Thank you.
[4:14:00]
Is there anything else from the council?
[4:14:03]
Members.
[4:14:05]
Okay.
[4:14:07]
If you're out, now you're recognized.
[4:14:10]
I just want to respond to council member to Manzo about what he said earlier.
[4:14:21]
You know what I heard about the, what I heard from residents is every city's meeting turned to chaos,
[4:14:31]
because in a cloud shows, because the three biggest jerks, manzo, Charlie, and Haar.
[4:14:39]
Okay, so just long blamers for, you know, for turning the city that the city meaning to a cloud show, okay, that's, that's because three of you three big heads jerks, I'm you.
[4:15:00]
Okay, anything from Council Member West? Well, you have the first time we're ready, right? You have the first. Okay, then it's my turn.
[4:15:10]
Then I would like to add to whatever the vice mayor and see Council Member Menzel, that what he just said, trying to call names and then trying to the great or whatever term that you call.
[4:15:30]
from the college, then what, please add that to, to that,
[4:15:36]
you add that course, please.
[4:15:38]
That's right, that's all I have.
[4:15:40]
At this time, I would like to recognize.
[4:15:42]
Hold on. This time, I would like to recognize
[4:15:45]
Council Member West for a second round.
[4:15:49]
Okay, so.
[4:15:50]
Let me just introduce.
[4:15:52]
Yes, please.
[4:15:52]
I think it's kind of important.
[4:15:54]
Can you stop?
[4:15:55]
Can you answer after?
[4:15:57]
Because I have a question.
[4:15:58]
Let me ask a question first.
[4:16:00]
No, no, no.
[4:16:00]
No, no, no.
[4:16:01]
No, no, no.
[4:16:01]
No, whatever.
[4:16:02]
You'll, no, no, no, no, no, no.
[4:16:03]
I should not take my time.
[4:16:05]
You can do that later.
[4:16:07]
Thank you.
[4:16:07]
No, go ahead.
[4:16:09]
OK, no, I just wanted to comment to say that,
[4:16:12]
and I understand all the reasons
[4:16:13]
why certain things are being added.
[4:16:16]
But the way things are structured when
[4:16:18]
it comes to the audience.
[4:16:20]
And what the courts have said is that it has to actually
[4:16:23]
disrupt the meeting.
[4:16:24]
So we need to focus, and when you're
[4:16:26]
to penalize someone and say that they're operating in a way that's contrary to law, the actions
[4:16:33]
have to be disrupting. So if going into the audience is disrupting the meeting because it
[4:16:37]
just tracks, okay, that might be considered disruptive, that makes sense. So in anything you're
[4:16:42]
putting in here, focus on that because for instance, if, say the last comment, don't say negative
[4:16:50]
things or call someone a jerk, that was one of the things that came out, that's really just
[4:16:54]
It's not disrupting the meeting, even though you could argue that it's creating fights.
[4:17:01]
I think that one's a little bit more problematic.
[4:17:04]
Just think about that in terms of what we're adding.
[4:17:07]
Things that disrupt the actual meeting or causing us not to be able to continue the proper flow of the meeting.
[4:17:14]
That's really what we need to key in on.
[4:17:17]
What about the trafficking and then videos at the Autodias?
[4:17:24]
that could be, if it's, if it's causing a distracting other people from being able to hear and conduct the meeting, that could be considered as right.
[4:17:33]
Okay, so with that, I withdraw my addition to whatever it is.
[4:17:41]
So we just consider that we can call each other whatever on this list.
[4:17:47]
And that's what we like on the person who, on the person,
[4:17:55]
you are just disrupting the meeting.
[4:17:56]
When I'm talking, this is a second warning to you.
[4:18:00]
Okay?
[4:18:01]
All right.
[4:18:06]
So this time I recognize her for the second round.
[4:18:19]
So I have a name, Councilwoman Amy Fanwess, Mr. Mayor.
[4:18:24]
Okay.
[4:18:25]
So the warning per meeting, for example, if you're talking about, you know, giving warnings
[4:18:33]
for council who interrupt those who have the floor, then that Mr. City Attorney, you say
[4:18:39]
this apply to the mayor too, then who will give the mayor the warning?
[4:18:43]
You city attorney?
[4:18:45]
To say, hey, you cannot interrupt the person who has the floor right now.
[4:18:50]
Who's going to hold accountable for that?
[4:18:52]
seems like double standard. How do we monitor that?
[4:18:55]
Probably a council majority in that situation.
[4:18:59]
Okay. All right. That's good to know.
[4:19:03]
I will remember that city attorney.
[4:19:05]
Okay.
[4:19:08]
So the law.
[4:19:09]
I just feel like what about?
[4:19:13]
Is there an equal protection problem?
[4:19:15]
Mr. City attorney?
[4:19:17]
I just feel like it's so biased.
[4:19:20]
This agenda item, I feel like there needs to be equal protection of each council member here and mayor, but this doesn't address that.
[4:19:30]
So can you please address that?
[4:19:34]
Well, these are our rules that the council would be adopting for itself.
[4:19:38]
So it applies to everyone equally.
[4:19:42]
And so everyone will need to abide by equally.
[4:19:46]
Unequal treatment is when you're talking about, and again,
[4:19:50]
And this is applicable to everyone, arguably, including the mayor as well as I mentioned
[4:19:55]
a majority could find the mayor to be in violation of some aspect of this.
[4:20:00]
Okay, and then also the other question is,
[4:20:09]
how walking outside and peat the city council action,
[4:20:13]
Mr. City Attorney, because the bathroom is out there. If I happen to walk out there and someone
[4:20:18]
greet me, so now I am impeding the meeting. I mean, the bathroom is right there, the woman's bathroom,
[4:20:24]
on my right out the exit and I go to that bathroom because people pee on the lid before and I sat on it, so I go to that one.
[4:20:34]
Yeah, I would say that's not disrupting the meeting.
[4:20:38]
You know, going to the bathroom getting coffee.
[4:20:40]
Yeah, someone stopped me right there and talked to me.
[4:20:43]
How would that be impeding?
[4:20:44]
That goes to kind of what I was talking about before that we want to focus on things that are actually disrupting the meeting.
[4:20:50]
So maybe, you know, getting in the conversations with people
[4:20:55]
or going out into the audience where it's
[4:20:58]
distracting from what's happening up here.
[4:21:00]
That's it.
[4:21:00]
So then we have to make that clear, because the thing is that
[4:21:04]
residents sometimes come up to me and talk to me when I walk out
[4:21:07]
that way too.
[4:21:08]
Like that lady earlier with the American flag.
[4:21:11]
Like she comes to me all the time and wanted to say,
[4:21:14]
I voted for you or, you know, I support you whatever.
[4:21:16]
You know?
[4:21:16]
But the thing is that how would you, you know,
[4:21:19]
say, that's disruptive, you know what I mean?
[4:21:21]
When you guys have the quorum up here, I'm being very quiet.
[4:21:26]
Yeah, I think that's a lot of bias of not equally treatment.
[4:21:32]
Just targeting me and Namquang on everything.
[4:21:36]
I've really feel targeted.
[4:21:39]
You agree?
[4:21:40]
Is that a question?
[4:21:41]
Yes, you agree.
[4:21:43]
Thank you to the attorney.
[4:21:47]
Hey, we're not gonna fire you.
[4:21:49]
Well, someone did say once, you know, on the Diaz Miss O here, I mentioned that, that
[4:21:55]
she'll threaten to fire you, but we would not say that, okay.
[4:22:00]
But the crazy thing is, I just feel this, there's no equal protection because what is put
[4:22:06]
on from these three, is targeting each of us individual, and it's great example is Mr. Nam
[4:22:13]
I said, you're stupid, so Mr. Mayor, target him.
[4:22:17]
You know, that's targeting, right there.
[4:22:20]
So this is so biased on this council, the majority of three.
[4:22:26]
It's just really sickening to me because this is a local election,
[4:22:29]
local politician who are the closest to the people.
[4:22:33]
And we're supposed to not care how we deal up here,
[4:22:36]
but how we affect the people there.
[4:22:38]
So we need to learn to respect one another.
[4:22:40]
I feel like the three majority doesn't respect the minority here and it's really, we feel targeted
[4:22:47]
and unequal treatment here, it's Mr. City Attorney.
[4:22:54]
So how do we change that to make sure there's that protection of everyone, whoever the majority
[4:22:59]
will happen in November that we want to continue to have that protection of each voice for
[4:23:05]
each district.
[4:23:05]
Yeah, you would actually read how this would be enforced, ultimately, you know, they find
[4:23:11]
somebody in violation, court would have to be the one to actually ultimately find a
[4:23:15]
misdemeanor. And so they're going to look at the facts. And if it's unequal treatment
[4:23:20]
between two council hours, they're not going to, they're not going to find our violation.
[4:23:25]
Thank you. We already have about two of the discussion. If there's no question for the council,
[4:23:33]
or I would like to entertain if there is a motion for this.
[4:23:38]
I just just a comment.
[4:23:39]
Mayor, please, a brief comment.
[4:23:42]
Very simple to these rules, just like all the rules and policies that we have here at the city council.
[4:23:51]
If you follow them, it's not a problem.
[4:23:55]
We have penal codes.
[4:23:56]
We have laws that are police officers, or they enforce.
[4:24:01]
If you don't want to get in trouble, then don't bring along.
[4:24:06]
How are we breaking the law?
[4:24:07]
It's an example.
[4:24:09]
It's an example.
[4:24:10]
It's an example.
[4:24:11]
It's an example.
[4:24:11]
It's an example.
[4:24:12]
It's an example.
[4:24:13]
Let him finish.
[4:24:15]
Please get a relevant example.
[4:24:17]
You wrote.
[4:24:19]
Relevant.
[4:24:20]
Relevant.
[4:24:20]
So is there a motion?
[4:24:25]
So our motion is to approve with the recommended amendments from City Attorney.
[4:24:34]
Yeah, I'd like to say that may I speak?
[4:24:38]
And I just hope that it is very, very, very embarrassing to have you on this council, Amy.
[4:24:46]
And you know, it is very embarrassing to have someone who comes so unready, who does not comprehend your agenda and who asks,
[4:24:56]
You play victim very well.
[4:25:00]
And I just want to let you know. And you know what, please keep your mouth closed.
[4:25:06]
Oh, wow. Okay. Yeah. That's really nice, right? I am being very nice. I just want to tell you.
[4:25:12]
Can I ask you a question? Can I ask more of who you started right now?
[4:25:16]
It is my turn to talk. So please, please, may I ask you to vote to stop right now.
[4:25:25]
Council member West, when you are speaking, no one is a fear.
[4:25:30]
I know when when I'm speaking.
[4:25:31]
Now it's her turn.
[4:25:32]
You are not recognized.
[4:25:34]
Kimberly, this is the second one.
[4:25:36]
You keep it.
[4:25:36]
One more time.
[4:25:38]
I will go ahead.
[4:25:39]
Okay.
[4:25:40]
It's time for her to speak.
[4:25:41]
Go ahead.
[4:25:41]
You are not recognized at this time.
[4:25:43]
Go ahead.
[4:25:44]
This is the reason why we have to pass this because you know,
[4:25:48]
you're treated like a child.
[4:25:49]
And when you keep interrupting and as earlier,
[4:25:53]
Thank you for counting how many times she interrupted and I believe, 16 times and but you know you just keep
[4:26:04]
harping on the mayor and other people when you know you're talking about just one or two times compared to your 16 times.
[4:26:12]
Why don't you stick to trying to improve yourself and you should tell you and you know again you interrupt.
[4:26:21]
that is where you learn money from to you.
[4:26:23]
If you think that is the reason why that's the reason you learn that is the reason why.
[4:26:30]
That is the reason why your investments, you are the best you are mayor.
[4:26:35]
You are mayor.
[4:26:36]
This is again, both of you please and
[4:26:42]
I think you are corrupt.
[4:26:49]
Let me ask both of you through supper at last time.
[4:26:53]
Vice Mayor Ho, please, give me this time.
[4:26:58]
Council Member West, I have given you a lot of times.
[4:27:02]
I have been wanting you, been doing everything to have you,
[4:27:07]
respect your council members when they're trans.
[4:27:11]
And you keep on interrupting them, and I give you the second
[4:27:15]
and you even challenged me to give you the third one.
[4:27:19]
This is the third one for you.
[4:27:22]
I give you the third one.
[4:27:23]
It's one more time than I will have to move on.
[4:27:27]
This is the third time for you.
[4:27:30]
I ask you to stop intervening her.
[4:27:35]
Let her finish with her two minutes, please.
[4:27:42]
Go ahead.
[4:27:43]
that this council, let the court, let the judge make the decision, and please, when it comes
[4:27:51]
time, we are not going to provide you, Amy, and Namquang,
[4:27:59]
with an attorney, so it's going
[4:28:01]
to come out of your own pocket.
[4:28:03]
That's a lead.
[4:28:04]
I want to make sure it is legal, because we might have done it clear.
[4:28:07]
I'm not having a conversation.
[4:28:09]
I have one minute and 40 seconds.
[4:28:12]
All right, so I'd like to say that it's about time.
[4:28:18]
We have this agenda because we have just been an embarrassment to the entire world I can
[4:28:25]
tell you.
[4:28:26]
I have attended outside of our city, we've gone to DC, we've gone to Long Beach Convention
[4:28:33]
recently, and I don't know how many times people come up and express their condolences
[4:28:41]
to us, and I'm like, oh, you know, and I had to like perk up my ears the first time.
[4:28:48]
I didn't believe my ears, then finally I'm like, oh, yes, yes, that's been going on.
[4:28:55]
And they actually name her by name, and so, and I actually, you know, gone on OCW Waterboard, the Waterboard.
[4:29:06]
So, because I was able to be the sound to be on a phone as well.
[4:29:12]
So, I'm just saying, you know what you were not here.
[4:29:15]
So, please let me talk.
[4:29:17]
You're not part of this conversation.
[4:29:19]
This is my time.
[4:29:20]
So, I just want to let you know that there are people who come up to me and have said that they watched other council members who watched us.
[4:29:31]
and I don't know why the heck they would watch us as they're on vacation on a cruise and they said,
[4:29:38]
wow, you know, they couldn't believe the chaos from the dias. So I'm really happy to have this
[4:29:45]
item number 9.2 and I think the mayor for it. Thank you. All right, I just want to mention it to you,
[4:30:00]
We have to have a control of this meeting. That's not the interruption. So, have you
[4:30:06]
have to understand that the meeting has to be controlled? At this time here, I know that we have
[4:30:12]
a motion on the floor. He says, take a minute. Okay. Now, if you ask for a foot, then you have
[4:30:19]
a five minutes left. Let me have a minute. Go ahead.
[4:30:24]
This disruption, please. Mr. Mayor, I don't need you, please.
[4:30:29]
There's disruption, can you let him have five minutes go ahead.
[4:30:37]
All right, just get back to Miss Holler there.
[4:30:42]
You said that some of the people in the water,
[4:30:50]
came up to you and then talking about us.
[4:30:54]
Okay, I challenge you. Just name one person that came up to you and talking bad about us. Okay, say it now
[4:31:02]
Okay, you're just such a line
[4:31:07]
Coward
[4:31:10]
Like a like a three up you the rest three of you. Let me okay
[4:31:17]
All right, yeah, let me ask see that Tony. So how is it legal?
[4:31:21]
So when the majority came up with this item, it just like a political attack,
[4:31:33]
the political
[4:31:36]
candidate, we are running against them.
[4:31:40]
And then now he's using the city's money, the tax money to attack in us.
[4:31:47]
How is it legal?
[4:31:52]
guess what I would say is that as a general role not taking the election into account.
[4:31:58]
This is the council.
[4:32:00]
The council is allowed to adopt rules for itself.
[4:32:03]
That's the state law.
[4:32:04]
No, they specifically name us like that.
[4:32:09]
Yes, not in the ordinance.
[4:32:11]
In the court session.
[4:32:13]
In the city's money.
[4:32:17]
In the lawsuit also.
[4:32:19]
How is it possible?
[4:32:21]
to court that the mayor required that by name in closed session using the city money during
[4:32:26]
campaign because you're not recognized at this time let him know how is it?
[4:32:35]
How is it how is it how is it how is it how is it how is it how is it how is it how is it how is it how it is how it is it is funny to
[4:32:41]
But I think that now is five minutes, please.
[4:32:45]
Opponents, how is it possible?
[4:32:47]
How is it legal?
[4:32:49]
No, no, no, I mean, again, the Council's
[4:32:52]
a lot that adopt rules of its decorum.
[4:32:54]
There are a lot to do that.
[4:32:56]
The Council's not allowed to use any privilege
[4:33:01]
that they have for a campaign purpose.
[4:33:04]
They are on a political advantage.
[4:33:05]
In a close section, that's not for me to decide
[4:33:08]
what these rules of the quorum are generally applicable.
[4:33:12]
So, these generally would be fine to adopt.
[4:33:18]
So, it's fine for them to use this argument.
[4:33:20]
Sorry, it's not your time.
[4:33:21]
It's just time right now.
[4:33:23]
Go ahead and finish your time.
[4:33:28]
Okay, so, just go back to the close session items.
[4:33:32]
So, is it legal?
[4:33:34]
Uh, are we talking about this item?
[4:33:36]
Or are we talking about close items?
[4:33:38]
No, it's time.
[4:33:39]
Wait a minute.
[4:33:40]
We did not attend the close session.
[4:33:42]
And we have free to talk about it.
[4:33:44]
Yeah, go ahead.
[4:33:47]
That's not the item that we're considering right now,
[4:33:51]
but with respect to that, yeah, I mean,
[4:33:53]
that's legal to do that.
[4:33:56]
So in the election, they can see these money to go against us,
[4:34:05]
the political opponents.
[4:34:07]
That's certainly an argument that you could make,
[4:34:10]
that if you think that's happening.
[4:34:11]
It is happening.
[4:34:17]
What do you say about Charlie?
[4:34:25]
I'm not in trouble.
[4:34:27]
You go ahead and finish.
[4:34:29]
I just want the people to take a very close look at these three jokes right there.
[4:34:36]
Okay, that's it.
[4:34:37]
Are you?
[4:34:37]
Thank you.
[4:34:39]
All right.
[4:34:39]
So we have a motion.
[4:34:41]
Is there a second on the floor?
[4:34:47]
Okay, we have the motion and second on the floor with the recommendation to the CDU
[4:34:55]
Yeah, let me just clarify those. I just tried to make a couple notes.
[4:35:00]
The items that you wanted to add were to, and this is under paragraph D, I think, under Subsection 3, at city council meetings, each city council member shall, and you have, like, a through J, so it would be added after that.
[4:35:17]
Starting with K, not leave the dyes for long periods of time, not intentionally miss entire discussions and votes.
[4:35:26]
not go out into the audience in a manner that disrupts the meeting, if a council member
[4:35:31]
goes out into the audience during a meeting in a manner that is disruptive to the meeting.
[4:35:36]
The council member will be deemed to be acting as a member of the public and not as a member
[4:35:39]
of the council.
[4:35:41]
Therefore rules applicable to members of the public will apply and finally not intentionally
[4:35:45]
refuse to attend closed sessions.
[4:35:48]
The recording.
[4:35:49]
City Attorney.
[4:35:50]
Isn't that right?
[4:35:50]
Thank you always.
[4:35:51]
be a council and at this time we can call for the vote for the legal. You can't be, you know,
[4:35:59]
if you step down, you're just the public, you're stepping to go to the bathroom or someone
[4:36:03]
stop you on your way to the bathroom. That is now you are not a council, what the heck is that?
[4:36:10]
How is that your work? Yeah, that one's a little more difficult to apply, I agree. No, I can
[4:36:15]
That's not what you step down and go out of the council meeting.
[4:36:20]
The council chambers, then, this is okay.
[4:36:22]
But if you are in the council chambers while the meeting is going on,
[4:36:27]
then that's a sort of thing to me.
[4:36:29]
Well, creating disruption is the key word.
[4:36:32]
Not just going out into the public.
[4:36:34]
It's causing a disruption.
[4:36:36]
So there we have the motion.
[4:36:38]
Second on a floor, please call for the vote, please.
[4:36:40]
Thank you.
[4:36:41]
I have a motion made by Council Member Monzo.
[4:36:43]
Secondary Vice Mayor Ho, this is to introduce for first reading an ordinance entitled
[4:36:48]
an ordinance of the Mayor and City Council of the City of Westminster, California.
[4:36:52]
Adding section 2.04.065 rules of decorum for City Council members to title two
[4:36:59]
administration and personnel of chapter 2.04 City Council of Westminster Municipal Code.
[4:37:05]
Establishing rules of decorum for council members during meetings and finding the ordinance
[4:37:10]
not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act, right by title only and way for the
[4:37:15]
reading to include the recommended amendments read into the record by the city attorney.
[4:37:19]
I'd like to make a subsequent questionnaire. I have to add one more. We disruptions at the
[4:37:39]
record.
[4:37:39]
It's not options.
[4:37:40]
Now you want to make a substitute motion.
[4:37:42]
Yes, go ahead.
[4:37:43]
Take no action.
[4:37:44]
All right, if necessary.
[4:37:45]
I'll save second.
[4:37:48]
I have a system.
[4:37:49]
You don't before I go.
[4:37:50]
Go ahead and call for a 1-0.
[4:37:52]
No, no.
[4:37:52]
No.
[4:37:53]
No, no.
[4:37:53]
You can talk at the time that they call for voted.
[4:37:56]
Now go ahead.
[4:37:57]
Because I want to modify the substitute motion.
[4:38:00]
Go ahead.
[4:38:00]
Go ahead.
[4:38:01]
Go ahead.
[4:38:01]
Go ahead.
[4:38:05]
Come on.
[4:38:06]
to see this. She's okay. So the reason I feel like the mayor and the council's
[4:38:13]
doing this is to silence our voice because you guys been here for eight years. I am
[4:38:17]
telling you. So you guys been here for eight years and you guys are going to hear that. I need
[4:38:23]
to hear what is accepted to both of you and you silence us. So my substitute motion is to
[4:38:30]
that in there, if it's okay, Mr. Nampuang, is that the ordinance for all council mayor too,
[4:38:38]
if they do run for any office and they longed their money, say they run for state senate,
[4:38:47]
and they longed their money and put it in their front of Charlie Cheenwood for 2022,
[4:38:53]
then that's illegal, then they should report it and notify the city council.
[4:38:58]
they can't do that.
[4:39:01]
So let's make that too in the ordinance.
[4:39:04]
If they're so say, you know, the mayor's running,
[4:39:07]
and you can't put money in the old account, unless it's in doubt.
[4:39:11]
All right.
[4:39:12]
Let's see.
[4:39:13]
So that's a good motion, right?
[4:39:14]
Fund rates for the money in there.
[4:39:15]
That's a substitute motion.
[4:39:17]
So that's at $9.000 in there.
[4:39:20]
Is that a substitute motion?
[4:39:21]
And so my substitute motion is that if anyone who's running for office
[4:39:25]
first to notify, we hear you loudly and clearly.
[4:39:31]
Is that second to that? Is that okay with the second?
[4:39:34]
So, or do you want to modify that?
[4:39:37]
Okay, you know what? I think it's not relevant at all.
[4:39:42]
Okay, so I just reported to the question.
[4:39:44]
We can do it later if you want to.
[4:39:47]
So you want to do it later? Do you want to add anything to this ordinance?
[4:39:51]
No, I just want to keep my original.
[4:39:53]
Okay. I want to add something. What if someone's late or something or, you know, um
[4:40:00]
May be cause a one like F-MOM which Kimberly just did. So city attorney can't please call me F-U.
[4:40:08]
Of course they want a DAIS, right? F-MOM.
[4:40:11]
So someone can do that.
[4:40:13]
You want a DAIS?
[4:40:14]
I don't want to hear you say that many times are my vocabulary.
[4:40:19]
Oh, sorry, what I heard is that the original motion will not change their his motion.
[4:40:30]
So,
[4:40:33]
no, no, not at this time, I want to see if you are okay with.
[4:40:39]
Oma, if I were anyone who caught FU on the dias here, that it should be on the record here too,
[4:40:46]
that they should be punished, too, if anyone call FU.
[4:40:51]
Because you have kids listening, remember?
[4:40:53]
Can you repeat what you told me earlier?
[4:40:56]
Yeah, calling people just words are not disruptive.
[4:41:02]
Okay, that's true.
[4:41:03]
That's true.
[4:41:04]
Okay, so what is your motion again?
[4:41:06]
Can you repeat your motion?
[4:41:07]
So you say we can say FU and the question?
[4:41:10]
No, just a technical action.
[4:41:12]
Are you saying that or not?
[4:41:21]
I have a substitute motion by Councilmember Wayne, Secretary of Councilwoman Fan West to take no action. I'll go out of call for the substitute motion. Councilwoman Fan West.
[4:41:32]
Yes. Councilmember Bonzo. Councilmember Wayne? Yes.
[4:41:37]
Vice Mayor Hill? No.
[4:41:40]
Or you know.
[4:41:41]
Do you know?
[4:41:41]
You know?
[4:41:42]
You know?
[4:41:44]
You're such an embarrassment as you know.
[4:41:47]
You know, it's so charming.
[4:41:49]
You know what it is?
[4:41:49]
You could probably over yourself.
[4:41:52]
So you make them sing stories and do it.
[4:41:55]
No.
[4:41:56]
You need to like.
[4:41:59]
You know.
[4:41:59]
You're not."
[4:42:00]
Say, no.
[4:42:03]
Okay.
[4:42:04]
But no.
[4:42:04]
Go ahead, vote.
[4:42:06]
No.
[4:42:09]
No.
[4:42:13]
No.
[4:42:14]
Okay.
[4:42:14]
Mayor Wynn.
[4:42:15]
No.
[4:42:17]
The two motion failed to erase.
[4:42:19]
Thank you.
[4:42:20]
I'll go back to the original motion.
[4:42:21]
I'm dead.
[4:42:22]
All right.
[4:42:24]
There's a big one.
[4:42:25]
No, no.
[4:42:26]
It's not your time to talk.
[4:42:27]
Thank you.
[4:42:27]
The original motion is made by Council Member Monzo, seconded by Vice Mayor Hell.
[4:42:33]
This has to introduce the ordinance for first reading with the amendments.
[4:42:36]
This right into the record by the city attorney, I'll go to call roll for the original motion.
[4:42:41]
Councilman Piano West?
[4:42:43]
No.
[4:42:45]
Councilmember Manzo?
[4:42:46]
Yes.
[4:42:47]
Councilmember Wayne?
[4:42:48]
No.
[4:42:49]
Vice Mayor Hill?
[4:42:50]
Yes.
[4:42:51]
Mayor Wayne?
[4:42:51]
Yes.
[4:42:52]
Motion carry three two.
[4:42:55]
Thank you.
[4:42:55]
I'm decorum.
[4:42:57]
Now we come to comments and request for agenda item from the city council agency members, including
[4:43:04]
A.B. 1, 2, 3, 4, report 1 required. I would like to mention that to Council members, and
[4:43:11]
including me, that if you attend the conference, make sure you report back.
[4:43:18]
At this time, let me call Council members of please.
[4:43:22]
Thank you, Mayor.
[4:43:23]
Yes, I want to report out that I did attend the League of California Series event in the city
[4:43:29]
long beach this past last week, I think it started in the 20, I forget about the day, but
[4:43:37]
it was a long beach. So as I attended there, I attended some a lot of good discussions, seminars,
[4:43:45]
collaborate with a lot of other elected officials and attorneys, staff members from other cities,
[4:43:53]
It's a very good experience, good discussions, learned a lot, and also I just want to just
[4:44:02]
think members of the public for coming out and expressing you.
[4:44:07]
Your concerns, putting up with this and you know, being as professional as you can, thank
[4:44:15]
you staff for your hard work, city attorney, thank you, and it's all I got.
[4:44:23]
Thank you, City Council, for being here participating.
[4:44:27]
Thank you.
[4:44:29]
Thank you, councilmember Manzo.
[4:44:30]
Now I recognize councilmember West.
[4:44:36]
So I just first and foremost want to thank you staff and
[4:44:40]
Westminster PD for being here to just, you know,
[4:44:44]
your presence here, me and a lot.
[4:44:47]
And thank you for all you to, you know,
[4:44:49]
I want to California League of City.
[4:44:52]
And it's really nice to meet other elected officials
[4:44:55]
and different vendors that does either solar or
[4:45:00]
There are different areas that help the city to infrastructure and what not economic development.
[4:45:08]
And it's so rad to hear what they do and the service they provide.
[4:45:14]
And I hope that the city manager will take up some of those booths with information and implement or just reach out to them because they have really good information.
[4:45:27]
but if you do need it, I do have it as well.
[4:45:32]
You know, I'm so thankful that other elected officials,
[4:45:36]
you know, run their cities and we don't have to reinvent the will.
[4:45:40]
We can just, you know, bounce ideas back and forth each other.
[4:45:44]
And the one that I went to that resonate with me a lot
[4:45:47]
is the homeless situation that, you know,
[4:45:51]
the city north of us have implement and successfully do so.
[4:45:55]
And they have good game plan of reaching out to the homeless with compassion, but at the same time allowing them to pull their bootstrap up.
[4:46:05]
And when we have time, I can send that to our team here staff to take a look at if we can implement some of their ideas.
[4:46:13]
I think that'll be great.
[4:46:16]
Of course, there's funding with state and federal that would help with the homeless situation in our city.
[4:46:20]
And also I know I don't know maybe you guys can update us with the $1 million that's
[4:46:26]
allocate for the homeless or Westminster PD to use it for the homeless.
[4:46:31]
In our city here, I hope we still have that fun allocated for the homeless in our city.
[4:46:38]
I don't know if the mayor or vice mayor have sit down to discuss this with the county yet,
[4:46:45]
But I know that found Valley 1, 500,000 from that fund if we do not sit there.
[4:46:53]
I mean, if we do not sit with them and discuss about this, so I hope the mayor would go to that meeting and to do that.
[4:47:01]
So in that way we can have the full funding of that one million to help our city here.
[4:47:06]
That would be great because we can really use it.
[4:47:09]
You know, the thing is, I just unfortunate, you know, on the resolution earlier, it's very misleading when you make the statement of that, you know, that it's fake news for being evicted.
[4:47:26]
never on that flyer wish you guys saw, you guys presented in a few counts of meeting, this is a future or potential leading to eviction.
[4:47:38]
And so I think it's important for the city to get that information correctly.
[4:47:42]
That's why I want to dialogue, but the mayor doesn't want to talk about it just for a vote.
[4:47:47]
And so with that, I also wanted to talk about, you know, the item of some of the resident
[4:47:57]
earlier that addressed their concerns of, let me see here,
[4:48:13]
okay, so I guess the member of the
[4:48:20]
like some of you guys act as if you are neutral and you come here to give us
[4:48:26]
solution to help move us to be forward. We haven't gotten that yet. The whole time
[4:48:31]
you guys just accuses, you know, petronize us as the new council here and it's really
[4:48:38]
unfortunate that for the last 22 months you have not even given us the opportunity to
[4:48:42]
serve the people here that elected us to serve but you just petronize, never give us
[4:48:48]
or meet with us personally and give us good ideas and solution.
[4:48:55]
Those of you here who constantly, every two weeks coming,
[4:48:59]
and ridicules us and just tell us,
[4:49:02]
mischaracterize who we are.
[4:49:05]
But yet, you don't give good solution of how we can fix this together.
[4:49:10]
And it's very unfortunate.
[4:49:13]
I do have good resident in the city of Westminster
[4:49:15]
and district one that comes to me.
[4:49:17]
one of the resident who is an L.A. PD, I mean L.A. police officer. He did came to my meeting in the office,
[4:49:29]
and mentioned he followed the protocol because that's what the police are good at.
[4:49:35]
Your time is up, man. Your time is up. Thank you very much.
[4:49:38]
I didn't know that. It's a time limit for finance. We already have the policy adopted.
[4:49:44]
Okay, and it's already past the last meeting. So you don't tell me that you don't know about this
[4:49:52]
If you don't know you want to silence please please pay attention to the meeting. Thank you
[4:50:00]
Thank you. I want to recognize our Vice Mayor, please.
[4:50:06]
Yes, I really enjoyed every time when I go to these events. The last one was the Long Beach Convention Center.
[4:50:17]
And it was held at the Long Beach Convention. And I, you know, there were some really good things that came out of that in
[4:50:26]
mentioned and so there's some that I think we need to, I'd have to say to improve on.
[4:50:35]
So I realized that the reputation of our city being so chaotic needs really an improvement.
[4:50:45]
I think a lot of people initially probably give the people who are chaotic on this council,
[4:50:53]
the benefit of the doubt, but over the last couple of years, I think they realize that
[4:51:01]
these folks are just either intentional, they're intentional, what they do, what
[4:51:12]
they're doing to us to our city, or I don't know, you guys realize that this is my last
[4:51:23]
last few months, so the reason I'm telling you is because I really kind of feel a little bit,
[4:51:32]
you know, sorry for our city but I hope that there'll be good days coming soon, very soon for our
[4:51:42]
city, I hope. But anyway, going back to the Long Beach Convention Center, I attended the economic
[4:51:47]
development playbook, and I really enjoyed that. I think I was, you know, I think I mostly
[4:51:55]
enjoyed listening to the, you know, case studies from the different cities that were presented
[4:52:03]
at that hour, and when they talk about zoning and specific plans that aren't as valuable unless
[4:52:12]
that we create value, so it really was a wonderful hour.
[4:52:20]
And I wish we have an economic development person,
[4:52:28]
because I think for cities like us,
[4:52:32]
I think we're floundering a little bit.
[4:52:35]
We're taking a long time, because over the years,
[4:52:41]
have to say in the last seven years I've seen that the good people left and then the next
[4:52:48]
person has to pick up where they left off and so I think that in the future we do need a good
[4:52:55]
economic development person. One who really has our interest at heart, not a gatekeeper, sort
[4:53:05]
person. And then the next thing I really I really love was the the next class was the
[4:53:17]
housing law, the Jeopardy game, which I was a part of the winning team. So our ACM and our
[4:53:32]
excited because we know we won. It was really a very, very fun game. I realized that, hey,
[4:53:40]
you know, from that, I realized that we may or may not have that SB 9 ordinance in place,
[4:53:47]
so I asked Adolfo Azadadoz, the ACM, and that's it is Assistant City Manager. And he said,
[4:53:55]
we do adopt the other state and maybe I've forgotten about that. But so that came out of that.
[4:54:01]
and then what else and here's one thing I think that if I could just ask our city council people when we go to these events we represent our city we really need to be very professional.
[4:54:18]
We shouldn't bring our kids along and we shouldn't bring our, you know,
[4:54:24]
just especially going to places where they serve alcohol and, you know, it just feels
[4:54:35]
like we're taking advantage of, you know, the place that we go to. So I just think that
[4:54:44]
I think remember that you're not there for yourself, but you're there to represent our
[4:54:49]
So, I thank you.
[4:54:54]
I think better days hopefully will be, you know.
[4:55:00]
Soon, for Westminster, not today, but I'm very hopeful that Westminster will be coming up.
[4:55:08]
Thank you. Once right later on. Thank you.
[4:55:12]
Thank you, Vice Mayor. Now it's my turn. Five minutes please. First of all, I want to thank you all for being here.
[4:55:21]
I can't thank you enough for taking the time to be here.
[4:55:26]
Some of you have been here for the last one from six o'clock till now.
[4:55:30]
So it's five and a half hours.
[4:55:33]
You have better things to do than this.
[4:55:37]
And I apologize for what we have to go through.
[4:55:39]
And I have to go through all the cows who have to go through.
[4:55:42]
All the staff have to go through.
[4:55:45]
I just want to ask for your understanding that,
[4:55:47]
that, you know, sometimes that I have to say louder,
[4:55:51]
or sometimes I have to take some action
[4:55:53]
that I don't want to.
[4:55:54]
I hope that this meeting is going smoothly
[4:55:58]
and then we can resolve business in a term
[4:56:04]
of, you know, smoothly and better.
[4:56:08]
But sometimes that I have to intervene to make sure
[4:56:11]
that the meeting is still going on and effectively.
[4:56:18]
I did that because I just want to make sure that you don't waste
[4:56:23]
our time resources for nothing.
[4:56:29]
And we want to end the meeting as early as we can.
[4:56:33]
I wanted to thank staff, you know, as I mentioned earlier,
[4:56:37]
I appreciate you guys being doing great job the last two years, not only the event just recently,
[4:56:47]
but you know, you've been doing all your best, you know, to get this CD moving forward.
[4:56:53]
So again, I get thank you enough, the CD managers, assistant CD managers, the WPD and every department
[4:57:03]
And the next thing is I want to report about the conference I was there and it was packed for the three days.
[4:57:14]
I've been running from one session to another and I have to say that most of the session that I attended is legal session because this meeting is the chaos of the meeting.
[4:57:27]
I have to want to attend to find out what can we do to do better at the meeting, the decorum and the severity, and also the, you know, ask questions for legal counsel or panels, you know, what can we do for the city of what's the, for what we, we can do improve our city meeting.
[4:57:48]
So, it was PAC and I have, you know, starting from early Wednesday morning, 1815 to Friday morning of 1815 sessions.
[4:58:01]
Council member West.
[4:58:04]
You said that you have people from District 1 who favor about you and they talk good things about you.
[4:58:13]
Why don't you ask them to come out to the City Council and voice their opinion?
[4:58:18]
If they think good things about you, I think you should ask them to come out here and speak for once.
[4:58:24]
I would think that if they courage enough to come out here and speak on your behalf of what you,
[4:58:31]
and they can see how you behave to the City Council and the public here.
[4:58:37]
So that's all I have for you.
[4:58:39]
The next thing is, I want to let you know that I want to be here for the next meeting
[4:58:45]
to our family commitments, so I want to let you know of front and I ask Vice Mayor
[4:58:52]
Hode to take over the next meeting and the next meeting is going to be held on Wednesday,
[4:58:59]
November 13, 2024 at 6 p.m. at the time meeting at June.
[4:59:10]
Good night.
