talk a little bit more than I

106
00:05:14,014 --> 00:05:15,449

00:07:30,751 --> 00:07:33,120

158
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,389
for Hosa, Hosa is a future

159
00:07:35,389 --> 00:07:36,256
health professionals

160
00:07:36,256 --> 00:07:38,325
organization. It involves

161
00:07:38,325 --> 00:07:40,694
career technical education and

162
00:07:40,694 --> 00:07:41,528
it‘s something I‘ve been

163
00:07:41,528 --> 00:07:42,696
involved with as a leader for

164
00:07:42,696 --> 00:07:44,131
the past four years at Diamond

165
00:07:44,131 --> 00:07:45,666
Bar High School, and something

166
00:07:45,666 --> 00:07:46,867
that this year I‘ve taken to

167
00:07:46,867 --> 00:07:48,469
the state level. So we‘ve

168
00:07:48,469 --> 00:07:49,670
organized certification

169
00:07:49,670 --> 00:07:50,604
workshops actually in the

170
00:07:50,604 --> 00:07:52,206
Diamond Bar Library last year,

171
00:07:52,206 --> 00:07:54,308
where we taught about 25 middle

172
00:07:54,308 --> 00:07:55,643
schoolers and high schoolers

173
00:07:55,643 --> 00:07:57,511
how to stop the bleed. So

174
00:07:57,511 --> 00:07:59,279
phlebotomy skills. And then

175
00:07:59,279 --> 00:08:01,148
we‘ve also organized different

176
00:08:01,148 --> 00:08:02,650
outreach workshops at middle

177
00:08:02,650 --> 00:08:04,251
schools and high schools within

178
00:08:04,251 --> 00:08:07,888
our district. And we also lead

179
00:08:07,888 --> 00:08:09,423
competition opportunities

180
00:08:09,423 --> 00:08:12,126
within the whole state. And so

181
00:08:12,126 --> 00:08:13,661
I‘m really proud to be a member

182
00:08:13,661 --> 00:08:14,962
of that organization, and I‘m

183
00:08:14,962 --> 00:08:16,230
so grateful to have it

184
00:08:16,230 --> 00:08:18,298
recognized here today. I‘m also

185
00:08:18,298 --> 00:08:20,000
really grateful to all the

186
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:21,268
teachers that I‘ve had within

187
00:08:21,268 --> 00:08:22,936
Diamond Bar, because they‘ve

188
00:08:22,936 --> 00:08:24,271
been such an incredible support

189
00:08:24,271 --> 00:08:25,406
system. They‘ve always pushed

190
00:08:25,406 --> 00:08:27,207
me to excel, but they‘ve always

191
00:08:27,207 --> 00:08:28,509
been there with me every step

192
00:08:28,509 --> 00:08:29,643
of the way, and of course, to

193
00:08:29,643 --> 00:08:30,978
my parents and to my family

194
00:08:30,978 --> 00:08:31,178
for.

195
00:08:31,178 --> 00:08:33,747
Being and talking to them.

196
00:08:33,747 --> 00:08:34,815
I mean, they‘re here with me

197
00:08:34,815 --> 00:08:36,050
today and they‘ve always been

198
00:08:36,050 --> 00:08:37,484
here standing with me and

199
00:08:37,484 --> 00:08:39,053
supporting me in everything

200
00:08:39,053 --> 00:08:40,521
that I do. So I could not be

201
00:08:40,521 --> 00:08:42,122
more grateful to them. Thank

202
00:08:42,122 --> 00:08:46,093
you so much.

203
00:08:46,093 --> 00:08:47,294
So I love the fact that you

204
00:08:47,294 --> 00:08:48,462
said you‘ve been doing this,

205
00:08:48,462 --> 00:08:49,863
you know, for like probably

206
00:08:49,863 --> 00:08:51,632
since you‘re 14, right? Well,

207
00:08:51,632 --> 00:08:53,534
that‘s a long time because

208
00:08:53,534 --> 00:08:55,202
you‘re like four years older

209
00:08:55,202 --> 00:08:57,104
now. That‘s amazing. Keep up

210
00:08:57,104 --> 00:08:58,472
the good work. And it‘s going

211
00:08:58,472 --> 00:08:59,807
to be very interesting to see

212
00:08:59,807 --> 00:09:02,309
how how just how much impact

213
00:09:02,309 --> 00:09:03,711
you have on the things that

214
00:09:03,711 --> 00:09:05,612
you‘re in entitled. Thank you

215
00:09:05,612 --> 00:09:06,346
so much for being here.

216
00:09:06,346 --> 00:09:06,980
I appreciate.

217
00:09:06,980 --> 00:09:10,651
You, you..

218
00:09:10,651 --> 00:09:12,252
thank you, thank you, thank

219
00:09:12,252 --> 00:09:14,722
you. Congratulations, mother.

220
00:09:14,722 --> 00:10:10,177
Congratulations.

221
00:10:10,177 --> 00:10:11,645
All right. That brings us to

222
00:10:11,645 --> 00:10:12,780
city manager reports and

223
00:10:12,780 --> 00:10:15,282
recommendations. Uh, Mr.

224
00:10:15,282 --> 00:10:17,584
McClain, uh, tell us about El

225
00:10:17,584 --> 00:10:19,653
Nino preparedness.

226
00:10:19,653 --> 00:10:20,854
Thank you. Mayor and members of

227
00:10:20,854 --> 00:10:22,422
the city council. Um, we

228
00:10:22,422 --> 00:10:22,990
thought it would be

229
00:10:22,990 --> 00:10:24,191
appropriate, given the fact

230
00:10:24,191 --> 00:10:26,126
that we‘re entering the fall

231
00:10:26,126 --> 00:10:27,494
and winter rainy season,

232
00:10:27,494 --> 00:10:28,762
despite the fact that it‘s been

233
00:10:28,762 --> 00:10:31,298
very warm the last week or so.

234
00:10:31,298 --> 00:10:33,901
To talk about the El Nino

235
00:10:33,901 --> 00:10:36,170
situation that we expect going

236
00:10:36,170 --> 00:10:38,872
into the next season. So just

237
00:10:38,872 --> 00:10:40,340
briefly, I am not a

238
00:10:40,340 --> 00:10:42,042
climatologist, but I will do my

239
00:10:42,042 --> 00:10:43,644
best to describe what El Nino

240
00:10:43,644 --> 00:10:45,612
is. This is a climate event

241
00:10:45,612 --> 00:10:46,780
that can result in extreme

242
00:10:46,780 --> 00:10:48,215
weather events. And so as we

243
00:10:48,215 --> 00:10:51,385
enter the rainy season, um, all

244
00:10:51,385 --> 00:10:52,586
experts are expecting that

245
00:10:52,586 --> 00:10:53,787
we‘re going to see heavier

246
00:10:53,787 --> 00:10:55,088
rains than usual or extreme

247
00:10:55,088 --> 00:10:56,456
weather events in the Southern

248
00:10:56,456 --> 00:10:58,058
California region. So we need

249
00:10:58,058 --> 00:11:01,461
to be prepared for that. Uh,

250
00:11:01,461 --> 00:11:03,030
our city staff has been working

251
00:11:03,030 --> 00:11:05,866
on a comprehensive plan to deal

252
00:11:05,866 --> 00:11:07,301
with public spaces. So our

253
00:11:07,301 --> 00:11:08,602
staff and our public works team

254
00:11:08,602 --> 00:11:11,071
is out now preparing any public

255
00:11:11,071 --> 00:11:12,539
areas that are under the city‘s

256
00:11:12,539 --> 00:11:14,808
care and maintenance slopes,

257
00:11:14,808 --> 00:11:16,643
public spaces, our drainage

258
00:11:16,643 --> 00:11:17,911
infrastructure, all of these

259
00:11:17,911 --> 00:11:19,246
things to ensure that they‘re

260
00:11:19,246 --> 00:11:20,814
ready for an extreme weather

261
00:11:20,814 --> 00:11:23,183
event or a heavy rain. We also

262
00:11:23,183 --> 00:11:24,785
want to remind private property

263
00:11:24,785 --> 00:11:26,286
owners to do the same on their

264
00:11:26,286 --> 00:11:27,521
property. It‘s better to be

265
00:11:27,521 --> 00:11:29,690
proactive and to be ready, and

266
00:11:29,690 --> 00:11:31,058
if nothing happens, at least we

267
00:11:31,058 --> 00:11:32,659
were ready for that. If it did.

268
00:11:32,659 --> 00:11:34,361
And so start by clearing

269
00:11:34,361 --> 00:11:36,296
gutters, drains v ditches

270
00:11:36,296 --> 00:11:37,731
before it rains. Have them

271
00:11:37,731 --> 00:11:38,899
ready to go so that you don‘t

272
00:11:38,899 --> 00:11:40,000
run into a problem. If we do

273
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,302
get a storm, downspouts and

274
00:11:42,302 --> 00:11:43,403
runoff, make sure that that‘s

275
00:11:43,403 --> 00:11:45,205
directed away from buildings

276
00:11:45,205 --> 00:11:47,407
and properties. Inspect your

277
00:11:47,407 --> 00:11:48,909
slopes and any other areas that

278
00:11:48,909 --> 00:11:50,844
might be prone to flooding or

279
00:11:50,844 --> 00:11:54,081
mudflows. Secure outdoor items

280
00:11:54,081 --> 00:11:55,782
and stock up on sandbags. Are

281
00:11:55,782 --> 00:11:57,584
our fire stations have sandbags

282
00:11:57,584 --> 00:11:59,219
available and those are

283
00:11:59,219 --> 00:12:00,621
available for free? So go down

284
00:12:00,621 --> 00:12:01,388
there and make sure that you

285
00:12:01,388 --> 00:12:02,789
have those ready in case we get

286
00:12:02,789 --> 00:12:05,192
a big storm. And with El Nino

287
00:12:05,192 --> 00:12:07,561
or any other disaster or

288
00:12:07,561 --> 00:12:09,296
emergency situation, it always

289
00:12:09,296 --> 00:12:10,931
pays to have an emergency plan

290
00:12:10,931 --> 00:12:13,100
and a kit ready. Um, do that

291
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:14,568
today. Whether it‘s El Nino, an

292
00:12:14,568 --> 00:12:16,003
earthquake, a wildfire, or any

293
00:12:16,003 --> 00:12:16,904
time that we might have to

294
00:12:16,904 --> 00:12:18,138
evacuate, it‘s good to have a

295
00:12:18,138 --> 00:12:19,306
plan in place for your family

296
00:12:19,306 --> 00:12:24,378
and a kit ready to respond. The

297
00:12:24,378 --> 00:12:25,412
city and our community

298
00:12:25,412 --> 00:12:26,847
relations team has done a great

299
00:12:26,847 --> 00:12:28,949
job putting together some

300
00:12:28,949 --> 00:12:30,384
information that is readily

301
00:12:30,384 --> 00:12:32,052
available for residents and

302
00:12:32,052 --> 00:12:34,054
businesses on our website and

303
00:12:34,054 --> 00:12:35,923
in many of our outreach

304
00:12:35,923 --> 00:12:37,024
materials, including the

305
00:12:37,024 --> 00:12:37,991

maintenance guidelines, how to

314
00:12:54,942 --> 00:12:56,410
prepare your home and family

315
00:12:56,410 --> 00:12:58,211
where you can find sandbags,

316
00:12:58,211 --> 00:13:00,280
what to do during and after a

317
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,449
storm. How to prepare an

318
00:13:02,449 --> 00:13:05,652
emergency communications plan.

319
00:13:05,652 --> 00:13:07,254
How to develop storm related

320
00:13:07,254 --> 00:13:08,889
contacts and resources so you

321
00:13:08,889 --> 00:13:10,724
know who to call if you are in

322
00:13:10,724 --> 00:13:12,326
a tough situation, and then you

323
00:13:12,326 --> 00:13:13,727
can learn more about the city

324
00:13:13,727 --> 00:13:15,429
storm preparations that we‘ve

325
00:13:15,429 --> 00:13:21,068
got going on as we speak. Our

326
00:13:21,068 --> 00:13:22,336
community relations team is

327
00:13:22,336 --> 00:13:24,137
also, as we do with most

328
00:13:24,137 --> 00:13:25,472
information that we put out. We

329
00:13:25,472 --> 00:13:26,707
put together a comprehensive

330
00:13:26,707 --> 00:13:28,008
plan and we put things in

331
00:13:28,008 --> 00:13:29,543
print, in video and on social

332
00:13:29,543 --> 00:13:31,611
media. They have prepared a

333
00:13:31,611 --> 00:13:33,246
short video that goes over this

334
00:13:33,246 --> 00:13:34,948
in about two minutes. And I‘d

335
00:13:34,948 --> 00:13:36,850
like to show that now. And this

336
00:13:36,850 --> 00:13:38,852
will be on our city‘s website

337
00:13:38,852 --> 00:13:40,220
and our YouTube page and social

338
00:13:40,220 --> 00:13:45,058
media channels here this week.

339
00:13:45,058 --> 00:13:46,293
While it‘s too early to know

340
00:13:46,293 --> 00:13:48,061
exactly how much rain Diamond

341
00:13:48,061 --> 00:13:50,263
Bar will receive, preparing now

342
00:13:50,263 --> 00:13:51,631
can help protect your home when

343
00:13:51,631 --> 00:13:54,501
storms arrive. Here are a few

344
00:13:54,501 --> 00:13:55,769
things you can do now to get

345
00:13:55,769 --> 00:14:00,007
your home ready. Clear drains,

346
00:14:00,007 --> 00:14:02,109
gutters and areas where water

347
00:14:02,109 --> 00:14:04,845
collects, clearing leaves and

348
00:14:04,845 --> 00:14:06,680
debris can help reduce puddling

349
00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:08,281
and allow rainwater to drain

350
00:14:08,281 --> 00:14:10,617
properly away from your home.

351
00:14:10,617 --> 00:14:12,619
Inspect your roof for damage or

352
00:14:12,619 --> 00:14:14,821
areas where water could enter,

353
00:14:14,821 --> 00:14:16,223
making repairs ahead of time

354
00:14:16,223 --> 00:14:17,457
can help prevent leaks and

355
00:14:17,457 --> 00:14:18,825
water damage. When heavy rain

356
00:14:18,825 --> 00:14:21,228
arrives. Secure outdoor

357
00:14:21,228 --> 00:14:22,963
furniture, trash and recycling

358
00:14:22,963 --> 00:14:25,298
bins, and other loose items.

359
00:14:25,298 --> 00:14:26,767
Securing these items can keep

360
00:14:26,767 --> 00:14:28,101
them from blowing away or

361
00:14:28,101 --> 00:14:30,103
becoming hazards during strong

362
00:14:30,103 --> 00:14:32,539
winds and heavy rain. Look for

363
00:14:32,539 --> 00:14:34,608
weak or damaged tree branches,

364
00:14:34,608 --> 00:14:35,809
addressing them ahead of time

365
00:14:35,809 --> 00:14:37,177
can reduce the risk of falling

366
00:14:37,177 --> 00:14:38,311
branches during stormy

367
00:14:38,311 --> 00:14:41,181
conditions. Pay attention to

368
00:14:41,181 --> 00:14:42,582
slopes and hillside areas

369
00:14:42,582 --> 00:14:44,251
around your property. Heavy

370
00:14:44,251 --> 00:14:45,552
rain can increase the risk of

371
00:14:45,552 --> 00:14:47,387
mudslides and debris flows,

372
00:14:47,387 --> 00:14:49,089
especially on steep or unstable

373
00:14:49,089 --> 00:14:51,625
slopes. If you need sandbags,

374
00:14:51,625 --> 00:14:52,859
they are available locally at

375
00:14:52,859 --> 00:14:56,129
fire stations 119 and 121.

376
00:14:56,129 --> 00:14:57,731
Sandbags can help redirect

377
00:14:57,731 --> 00:15:00,400
water, mud and minor debris

378
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:01,935
away from vulnerable areas of

379
00:15:01,935 --> 00:15:04,471
your property. To help prevent

380
00:15:04,471 --> 00:15:06,773
stormwater pollution. Keep

381
00:15:06,773 --> 00:15:08,542
leaves, trash, chemicals and

382
00:15:08,542 --> 00:15:10,210
other pollutants out of streets

383
00:15:10,210 --> 00:15:11,645
and storm drains where rain can

384
00:15:11,645 --> 00:15:12,612
carry them into local

385
00:15:12,612 --> 00:15:15,749
waterways. Prepare your vehicle

386
00:15:15,749 --> 00:15:17,951
for wet weather. Check your

387
00:15:17,951 --> 00:15:20,020
tires, windshield wipers,

388
00:15:20,020 --> 00:15:22,189
headlights, brakes and other

389
00:15:22,189 --> 00:15:23,523
essentials before driving in

390
00:15:23,523 --> 00:15:26,660
stormy conditions. Create an

391
00:15:26,660 --> 00:15:28,295
emergency kit. Include

392
00:15:28,295 --> 00:15:29,463
essential supplies such as

393
00:15:29,463 --> 00:15:31,932
water, non-perishable food,

394
00:15:31,932 --> 00:15:33,800
medications, flashlights,

395
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,368
batteries and first aid

396
00:15:35,368 --> 00:15:38,071
supplies. Know your resources

397
00:15:38,071 --> 00:15:40,006
and sign up for alerts. Know

398
00:15:40,006 --> 00:15:41,208
who to contact for storm

399
00:15:41,208 --> 00:15:43,176
related issues and emergencies.

400
00:15:43,176 --> 00:15:44,978
Review your insurance coverage

401
00:15:44,978 --> 00:15:46,680
and sign up for Diamond Bar

402
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,648
emergency alerts and alert LA

403
00:15:48,648 --> 00:15:50,851
County. A little preparation

404
00:15:50,851 --> 00:15:52,185
now can make a big difference

405
00:15:52,185 --> 00:15:54,588
when the rain begins. Don‘t

406
00:15:54,588 --> 00:15:56,089
wait for the rain. Prepare

407
00:15:56,089 --> 00:16:05,499
before the storm.

408
00:16:05,499 --> 00:16:06,466
And so again, we would

409
00:16:06,466 --> 00:16:08,201
encourage members of the public

410
00:16:08,201 --> 00:16:10,103
to utilize the resources of the

411
00:16:10,103 --> 00:16:11,571
city has posted on its website

412
00:16:11,571 --> 00:16:12,839
again, that website, as it‘s

413
00:16:12,839 --> 00:16:15,342
shown on the screen, is WW

414
00:16:15,342 --> 00:16:18,645
Diamondback, Nino. And that

415
00:16:18,645 --> 00:16:20,046
will be the hub for all of our

416
00:16:20,046 --> 00:16:21,781
El Nino and storm preparedness

417
00:16:21,781 --> 00:16:24,184
information. Our social media

418
00:16:24,184 --> 00:16:25,418
accounts will also provide

419
00:16:25,418 --> 00:16:27,187
updates as we go, along with

420
00:16:27,187 --> 00:16:28,522
additional tips. And in the

421
00:16:28,522 --> 00:16:30,490
event of a storm, any important

422
00:16:30,490 --> 00:16:31,691
information for the public to

423
00:16:31,691 --> 00:16:33,627
know. And also our YouTube

424
00:16:33,627 --> 00:16:34,728
channel will have this

425
00:16:34,728 --> 00:16:35,896
informational video that we

426
00:16:35,896 --> 00:16:38,932
just showed on the the channel

427
00:16:38,932 --> 00:16:40,367
here. Moving forward for the

428
00:16:40,367 --> 00:16:43,336
rest of the rainy season. And

429
00:16:43,336 --> 00:16:44,137
with that, I‘d be happy to

430
00:16:44,137 --> 00:16:45,272
answer any questions. And thank

431
00:16:45,272 --> 00:16:46,339
you for the time.

432
00:16:46,339 --> 00:16:47,474
Any questions?

433
00:16:47,474 --> 00:16:49,242
Um. Just one, just one

434
00:16:49,242 --> 00:16:51,111
clarification.

435
00:16:51,111 --> 00:16:52,913
You mentioned that the fire

436
00:16:52,913 --> 00:16:54,848
stations are places you can get

437
00:16:54,848 --> 00:16:56,483
the sandbags. Uh, can you

438
00:16:56,483 --> 00:16:58,385
clarify whether you can just

439
00:16:58,385 --> 00:16:59,486
walk up and say, hey, can I

440
00:16:59,486 --> 00:17:01,655
have some sandbags? Or do you

441
00:17:01,655 --> 00:17:03,223
fill up the sandbags yourself?

442
00:17:03,223 --> 00:17:04,791
And if so, what type of tools

443
00:17:04,791 --> 00:17:05,859
would you need to bring to

444
00:17:05,859 --> 00:17:07,861
accomplish that?

445
00:17:07,861 --> 00:17:09,863
Yes, the stations have sand in

446
00:17:09,863 --> 00:17:11,298
the bags available out in

447
00:17:11,298 --> 00:17:12,532
front, and so you‘d need to

448
00:17:12,532 --> 00:17:13,934
bring a shovel to fill them up

449
00:17:13,934 --> 00:17:15,202
and prepare them and take them

450
00:17:15,202 --> 00:17:17,938
away.

451
00:17:17,938 --> 00:17:18,305
Great.

452
00:17:18,305 --> 00:17:19,673
Thank you.

453
00:17:19,673 --> 00:17:21,308
Any other questions?

454
00:17:21,308 --> 00:17:22,609
Thank you, Councilman Lou.

455
00:17:22,609 --> 00:17:25,312
Uh thank you mayor. Uh, thank

456
00:17:25,312 --> 00:17:27,080
you, City manager McLean. I was

457
00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,482
wondering if, uh, what are the

458
00:17:29,482 --> 00:17:31,218
areas that the staff have

459
00:17:31,218 --> 00:17:32,352
identified as the most

460
00:17:32,352 --> 00:17:34,988
vulnerable in Diamond Bar? And

461
00:17:34,988 --> 00:17:37,624
what can the city and our

462
00:17:37,624 --> 00:17:39,526
residents do in prepare for

463
00:17:39,526 --> 00:17:41,861
this? Before our big, first big

464
00:17:41,861 --> 00:17:43,997
storm?

465
00:17:43,997 --> 00:17:45,865
I would say that the most

466
00:17:45,865 --> 00:17:47,601
important or priority locations

467
00:17:47,601 --> 00:17:48,969
would be any slopes that are

468
00:17:48,969 --> 00:17:50,770
adjacent to properties and any

469
00:17:50,770 --> 00:17:53,773
drainage apparatus or ditches.

470
00:17:53,773 --> 00:17:55,008
Um, make sure that those are

471
00:17:55,008 --> 00:17:56,142
cleaned out before so that

472
00:17:56,142 --> 00:17:57,010
they‘re not clogged in the

473
00:17:57,010 --> 00:17:58,345
event of a rain. So those two

474
00:17:58,345 --> 00:17:59,980
would probably probably be the

475
00:17:59,980 --> 00:18:01,848
top priorities. Um, as it

476
00:18:01,848 --> 00:18:02,949
relates to kind of the bigger

477
00:18:02,949 --> 00:18:05,252
picture.

478
00:18:05,252 --> 00:18:06,453
Certainly we can work on that.

479
00:18:06,453 --> 00:18:08,722
Thank you so much.

480
00:18:08,722 --> 00:18:10,290
Any other questions?

481
00:18:10,290 --> 00:18:11,491
Councilman Tang?

482
00:18:11,491 --> 00:18:12,659
Thank you.

483
00:18:12,659 --> 00:18:15,829
Um.

484
00:18:15,829 --> 00:18:18,265
We have discussed there are

485
00:18:18,265 --> 00:18:21,001
several areas with trees in the

486
00:18:21,001 --> 00:18:25,705
city. That‘s a more vulnerable.

487
00:18:25,705 --> 00:18:27,774
Uh, during the storm condition,

488
00:18:27,774 --> 00:18:30,410
for example, the the Bradford

489
00:18:30,410 --> 00:18:32,646
peach trees. And they are easy

490
00:18:32,646 --> 00:18:34,748
to the branches are easy to

491
00:18:34,748 --> 00:18:36,216
fall off during the stormy

492
00:18:36,216 --> 00:18:38,885
weather. And so that are we are

493
00:18:38,885 --> 00:18:40,854
sending out the crew to check

494
00:18:40,854 --> 00:18:42,622
the if there‘s any weak

495
00:18:42,622 --> 00:18:44,391
branches that we we should

496
00:18:44,391 --> 00:18:46,393
probably trim them the before

497
00:18:46,393 --> 00:18:48,328
the storm comes.

498
00:18:48,328 --> 00:18:50,463
So we have our public works

499
00:18:50,463 --> 00:18:51,298
team. Our public works

500
00:18:51,298 --> 00:18:52,699
maintenance team works with the

501
00:18:52,699 --> 00:18:54,267
city‘s arborist, West Coast

502
00:18:54,267 --> 00:18:56,169
arborist to look at trees

503
00:18:56,169 --> 00:18:58,405
across the city. No matter the

504
00:18:58,405 --> 00:19:00,240
um species, to ensure that

505
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,608
they‘re safe. And if we need to

506
00:19:01,608 --> 00:19:03,543
make any adjustments, um, our

507
00:19:03,543 --> 00:19:04,611
staff will work with the

508
00:19:04,611 --> 00:19:05,812
arborist and the tree trimming

509
00:19:05,812 --> 00:19:08,014
crews to have them in place.

510
00:19:08,014 --> 00:19:10,784
Now, it is in a storm

511
00:19:10,784 --> 00:19:12,152
situation. We‘re not going to

512
00:19:12,152 --> 00:19:14,020
be able to find every situation

513
00:19:14,020 --> 00:19:15,655
in which there might be a

514
00:19:15,655 --> 00:19:17,023
branch that needs to be

515
00:19:17,023 --> 00:19:18,591
addressed. Um, so it‘s really

516
00:19:18,591 --> 00:19:19,926
important that people that have

517
00:19:19,926 --> 00:19:21,094
trees on their property do

518
00:19:21,094 --> 00:19:22,862
inspections and make sure that

519
00:19:22,862 --> 00:19:24,431
their trees are prepped for any

520
00:19:24,431 --> 00:19:26,433
weather as well.

521
00:19:26,433 --> 00:19:27,934
But we‘ll do the check on the

522
00:19:27,934 --> 00:19:29,969
public areas, right?

523
00:19:29,969 --> 00:19:31,938
We do. Our staff is already

524
00:19:31,938 --> 00:19:34,007
checking on public slopes and

525
00:19:34,007 --> 00:19:35,442
public areas that are

526
00:19:35,442 --> 00:19:37,010
maintained by the city and

527
00:19:37,010 --> 00:19:38,945
owned by the city, to get them

528
00:19:38,945 --> 00:19:41,448
ready for a storm situation.

529
00:19:41,448 --> 00:19:43,350
So you say, if I‘m driving

530
00:19:43,350 --> 00:19:45,285
during the storm condition, all

531
00:19:45,285 --> 00:19:47,087
of a sudden I see a fallen

532
00:19:47,087 --> 00:19:48,621
trees on the on the street.

533
00:19:48,621 --> 00:19:51,324
Which number? The driver should

534
00:19:51,324 --> 00:19:51,991
call.

535
00:19:51,991 --> 00:19:53,560
That you can call the city. Any

536
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,729
of the numbers are mainline 909

537
00:19:55,729 --> 00:19:58,131
839 7000. And we‘ll be able to

538
00:19:58,131 --> 00:20:00,800
direct to the proper person. I

539
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,135
believe our public works line

540
00:20:02,135 --> 00:20:05,972
is (900) 983-9704 zero.

541
00:20:05,972 --> 00:20:08,241
That‘s around the clock. Um,

542
00:20:08,241 --> 00:20:09,409
response. Right.

543
00:20:09,409 --> 00:20:11,311
Uh, we do not have 24 hour

544
00:20:11,311 --> 00:20:12,579
coverage, but if we do have an

545
00:20:12,579 --> 00:20:14,147
emergency situation, if we get

546
00:20:14,147 --> 00:20:15,148
notice from the sheriff‘s

547
00:20:15,148 --> 00:20:16,149
department, which is something

548
00:20:16,149 --> 00:20:17,617
that‘s happened in the past, we

549
00:20:17,617 --> 00:20:19,452
respond to that and dispatch

550
00:20:19,452 --> 00:20:21,955
the proper personnel.

551
00:20:21,955 --> 00:20:23,289
Thank you.

552
00:20:23,289 --> 00:20:26,326
Any other questions? Okay.

553
00:20:26,326 --> 00:20:27,293
Seeing none. Thank you very

554
00:20:27,293 --> 00:20:29,129
much, Mr. McLain. That brings

555
00:20:29,129 --> 00:20:31,831
us to public comments. Public

556
00:20:31,831 --> 00:20:33,767
comment is the time reserved on

557
00:20:33,767 --> 00:20:35,869
each regular meeting agenda to

558
00:20:35,869 --> 00:20:37,170
provide an opportunity for

559
00:20:37,170 --> 00:20:38,705
members of the public to

560
00:20:38,705 --> 00:20:40,407
directly address the Council on

561
00:20:40,407 --> 00:20:42,575
consent. Calendar items, or

562
00:20:42,575 --> 00:20:44,344
other matters of interest, not

563
00:20:44,344 --> 00:20:46,413
on the agenda that are within

564
00:20:46,413 --> 00:20:48,615
the subject matter jurisdiction

565
00:20:48,615 --> 00:20:50,450
of the Council. Although the

566
00:20:50,450 --> 00:20:51,885
City Council values your

567
00:20:51,885 --> 00:20:53,920
comments pursuant to the Brown

568
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,188
Act, members of the City

569
00:20:55,188 --> 00:20:57,290
Council or staff may briefly

570
00:20:57,290 --> 00:20:59,492
respond to public comments if

571
00:20:59,492 --> 00:21:01,494
necessary, but no extended

572
00:21:01,494 --> 00:21:03,363
discussion and no action on

573
00:21:03,363 --> 00:21:05,365
such matters may take place.

574
00:21:05,365 --> 00:21:07,066
There‘s a five minute maximum

575
00:21:07,066 --> 00:21:08,701
time limit when addressing the

576
00:21:08,701 --> 00:21:10,570
City Council at this time. I‘ll

577
00:21:10,570 --> 00:21:11,971
call up speakers who have

578
00:21:11,971 --> 00:21:14,007
submitted a speaker card first,

579
00:21:14,007 --> 00:21:16,709
then City Clerk Santana will

580
00:21:16,709 --> 00:21:19,412
ask for those callers. Join

581
00:21:19,412 --> 00:21:20,947
that. Joining the

582
00:21:20,947 --> 00:21:22,882
teleconference who may wish to

583
00:21:22,882 --> 00:21:24,684
speak under public comments. I

584
00:21:24,684 --> 00:21:26,486
have received two speaker

585
00:21:26,486 --> 00:21:29,422
cards. Let‘s begin with Bruce.

586
00:21:29,422 --> 00:21:44,437
Keisha.

587
00:21:44,437 --> 00:21:47,907
Oh, that‘s just sad. Honored

588
00:21:47,907 --> 00:21:50,777
Council Captain Coursey, deputy

589
00:21:50,777 --> 00:21:54,848
Sotelo. Mister McLean and long

590
00:21:54,848 --> 00:21:56,449
suffering staff. I‘m Bruce

591
00:21:56,449 --> 00:21:58,051
Chitty here representing the

592
00:21:58,051 --> 00:21:59,552
Rotary Club of Walnut Valley

593
00:21:59,552 --> 00:22:00,920
and thanking the good citizens

594
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,722
of Diamond Bar and Walnut for

595
00:22:02,722 --> 00:22:04,090
turning out in impressive

596
00:22:04,090 --> 00:22:05,592
numbers for the council

597
00:22:05,592 --> 00:22:07,293
candidate forums hosted by our

598
00:22:07,293 --> 00:22:09,629
club in September. All eight

599
00:22:09,629 --> 00:22:11,130
candidates were invited to the

600
00:22:11,130 --> 00:22:12,966
forums on equal terms were

601
00:22:12,966 --> 00:22:14,400
introduced beforehand to the

602
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:15,935
format and the rules of the

603
00:22:15,935 --> 00:22:18,171
forum, and by zoom to those

604
00:22:18,171 --> 00:22:19,973
Rotarians chosen to draft the

605
00:22:19,973 --> 00:22:21,140
questions to put to the

606
00:22:21,140 --> 00:22:23,543
candidates. Six candidates

607
00:22:23,543 --> 00:22:25,778
chose to attend, three in each

608
00:22:25,778 --> 00:22:28,581
city. Rotarians of the drafting

609
00:22:28,581 --> 00:22:30,183
committee themselves, citizens

610
00:22:30,183 --> 00:22:31,751
of Diamond Bar and Walnut,

611
00:22:31,751 --> 00:22:33,453
crafted questions which were

612
00:22:33,453 --> 00:22:34,587
judged to be of immediate

613
00:22:34,587 --> 00:22:36,389
importance and interest to the

614
00:22:36,389 --> 00:22:38,258
voting public and of course, to

615
00:22:38,258 --> 00:22:40,760
ourselves. Since we live here.

616
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:41,895
I was a member of that

617
00:22:41,895 --> 00:22:43,429
committee, along with six other

618
00:22:43,429 --> 00:22:45,565
club members. The candidate in

619
00:22:45,565 --> 00:22:46,900
our club had neither hand in

620
00:22:46,900 --> 00:22:48,401
the drafting nor foreknowledge

621
00:22:48,401 --> 00:22:50,670
of the questions themselves.

622
00:22:50,670 --> 00:22:53,406
Now, while each of us brought

623
00:22:53,406 --> 00:22:54,941
our personal perspective to the

624
00:22:54,941 --> 00:22:56,643
effort, we were guided by and

625
00:22:56,643 --> 00:22:58,811
fortified in our drafting by a

626
00:22:58,811 --> 00:23:00,547
common allegiance to four

627
00:23:00,547 --> 00:23:03,149
foundational rotary principles

628
00:23:03,149 --> 00:23:06,619
truth, fairness, goodwill, and

629
00:23:06,619 --> 00:23:09,589
friendship, and mutual benefit.

630
00:23:09,589 --> 00:23:11,324
In fact, our club and each of

631
00:23:11,324 --> 00:23:13,426
the 4800 rotary Clubs worldwide

632
00:23:13,426 --> 00:23:14,827
start each meeting with a

633
00:23:14,827 --> 00:23:16,696
pledge to each other to

634
00:23:16,696 --> 00:23:18,064
honestly meet the standard of

635
00:23:18,064 --> 00:23:19,332
what is called the Four-Way

636
00:23:19,332 --> 00:23:20,967
Test of everything. We think,

637
00:23:20,967 --> 00:23:23,603
say and do. Now, put a pin in

638
00:23:23,603 --> 00:23:25,772
that for just one moment.

639
00:23:25,772 --> 00:23:27,140
There‘s no way that rotaries

640
00:23:27,140 --> 00:23:28,741
founders could have imagined.

641
00:23:28,741 --> 00:23:31,411
In 1905, the global reach of

642
00:23:31,411 --> 00:23:33,346
the movement they had started,

643
00:23:33,346 --> 00:23:35,148
but before long it became clear

644
00:23:35,148 --> 00:23:36,849
to rotary needed to appeal to a

645
00:23:36,849 --> 00:23:38,885
universal set of core ethical

646
00:23:38,885 --> 00:23:41,287
values recognizable to and

647
00:23:41,287 --> 00:23:43,256
spoken by men and women of

648
00:23:43,256 --> 00:23:45,258
goodwill, spanning nation,

649
00:23:45,258 --> 00:23:47,460
culture, religion, race, tongue

650
00:23:47,460 --> 00:23:53,032
and ethnicity. And so was

651
00:23:53,032 --> 00:23:54,367
devised this thing called the

652
00:23:54,367 --> 00:23:56,269
four way test. The four

653
00:23:56,269 --> 00:23:57,937
questions that we speak aloud

654
00:23:57,937 --> 00:23:59,339
at the outset of each meeting

655
00:23:59,339 --> 00:24:00,640
after our pledge of Allegiance

656
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:01,908
to the flag of the United

657
00:24:01,908 --> 00:24:03,776
States of America, and our

658
00:24:03,776 --> 00:24:06,179
prayer to the Almighty. So let

659
00:24:06,179 --> 00:24:08,147
me go back. Here‘s this pin.

660
00:24:08,147 --> 00:24:10,249
The four way test of everything

661
00:24:10,249 --> 00:24:12,051
we think, say, or do. The four

662
00:24:12,051 --> 00:24:13,486
questions we place to each

663
00:24:13,486 --> 00:24:15,822
other at every meeting. First,

664
00:24:15,822 --> 00:24:18,391
is it the truth? Second, is it

665
00:24:18,391 --> 00:24:21,060
fair to all concerned? Third,

666
00:24:21,060 --> 00:24:22,362
will it build goodwill and

667
00:24:22,362 --> 00:24:24,130
better friendship? And fourth,

668
00:24:24,130 --> 00:24:26,032
is it beneficial to all

669
00:24:26,032 --> 00:24:29,102
concerned with these principles

670
00:24:29,102 --> 00:24:30,770
in front of mind? It was easy

671
00:24:30,770 --> 00:24:32,205
to craft a format which

672
00:24:32,205 --> 00:24:33,706
advantaged neither incumbent

673
00:24:33,706 --> 00:24:35,575
nor challenger, providing fair

674
00:24:35,575 --> 00:24:37,176
and level access to a vital,

675
00:24:37,176 --> 00:24:39,512
interested audience. And even

676
00:24:39,512 --> 00:24:40,680
more so, the questions

677
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:41,948
themselves, which gave the

678
00:24:41,948 --> 00:24:43,349
audience a clear view with

679
00:24:43,349 --> 00:24:44,450
which to evaluate the

680
00:24:44,450 --> 00:24:47,020
truthfulness, the fairness, the

681
00:24:47,020 --> 00:24:49,322
comity or the neighborliness

682
00:24:49,322 --> 00:24:50,923
and public benefit of the

683
00:24:50,923 --> 00:24:53,960
candidates, replies. In this,

684
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,129
as in our previous forums and

685
00:24:56,129 --> 00:24:57,530
in all our efforts, the Rotary

686
00:24:57,530 --> 00:24:59,666
Club of Walnut Valley strives

687
00:24:59,666 --> 00:25:01,567
to set the standard. You know,

688
00:25:01,567 --> 00:25:02,402
one of these days I‘m just

689
00:25:02,402 --> 00:25:03,503
going to have to memorize one

690
00:25:03,503 --> 00:25:06,539
of these things strives to set

691
00:25:06,539 --> 00:25:07,940
the standard for positive,

692
00:25:07,940 --> 00:25:09,776
productive public participation

693
00:25:09,776 --> 00:25:12,045
in our city‘s affairs by doing

694
00:25:12,045 --> 00:25:15,481
honor to that simple pledge, we

695
00:25:15,481 --> 00:25:17,083
do sincerely hope that those

696
00:25:17,083 --> 00:25:18,284
who attended and those who

697
00:25:18,284 --> 00:25:19,786
watch the YouTube and Facebook

698
00:25:19,786 --> 00:25:22,922
videos to be posted shortly, we

699
00:25:22,922 --> 00:25:24,991
do sincerely hope that you all

700
00:25:24,991 --> 00:25:26,626
judge our efforts successful,

701
00:25:26,626 --> 00:25:28,261
which is to say, truthful,

702
00:25:28,261 --> 00:25:30,096
fair, neighborly, and

703
00:25:30,096 --> 00:25:32,732
beneficial to all concerned. We

704
00:25:32,732 --> 00:25:33,866
look forward to our next

705
00:25:33,866 --> 00:25:35,068
opportunity to serve our

706
00:25:35,068 --> 00:25:36,669
communities and welcome any and

707
00:25:36,669 --> 00:25:37,804
all suggestions for

708
00:25:37,804 --> 00:25:40,373
improvement. We meet at 8 a.m.

709
00:25:40,373 --> 00:25:41,941
Tuesday mornings. The Diamond

710
00:25:41,941 --> 00:25:45,511
Bar Golf Course in the bar, and

711
00:25:45,511 --> 00:25:46,612
so with that, ladies and

712
00:25:46,612 --> 00:25:48,948
gentlemen, thank you and good

713
00:25:48,948 --> 00:25:51,517
night. God bless.

714
00:25:51,517 --> 00:25:55,254
Thank you, Mr. Trisha. Uh,

715
00:25:55,254 --> 00:26:02,695
Cynthia, you.

716
00:26:02,695 --> 00:26:04,063
Uh, good evening, Mr. Mayor.

717
00:26:04,063 --> 00:26:06,432
Council member, city

718
00:26:06,432 --> 00:26:08,134
staff and members. Audience. My

719
00:26:08,134 --> 00:26:09,469
name is Cynthia. You from

720
00:26:09,469 --> 00:26:11,971
member library. I‘m happy to

721
00:26:11,971 --> 00:26:14,373
report that our special edition

722
00:26:14,373 --> 00:26:16,642
hello Kitty library card launch

723
00:26:16,642 --> 00:26:20,246
was has been very successful.

724
00:26:20,246 --> 00:26:22,048
Uh, it sparked viral social

725
00:26:22,048 --> 00:26:23,449
media hype across the Southern

726
00:26:23,449 --> 00:26:25,785
California on September 18th.

727
00:26:25,785 --> 00:26:27,653
System across L.A. County

728
00:26:27,653 --> 00:26:31,090
library. About 16,000 new

729
00:26:31,090 --> 00:26:32,725
library cards were registered

730
00:26:32,725 --> 00:26:35,528
and 20,000 cards replaced. Just

731
00:26:35,528 --> 00:26:37,964
on that day in Denver. The

732
00:26:37,964 --> 00:26:39,766
response was particularly

733
00:26:39,766 --> 00:26:42,401
strong. We had over 100 people

734
00:26:42,401 --> 00:26:43,936
waiting outside of our library

735
00:26:43,936 --> 00:26:48,541
building before we opened, and

736
00:26:48,541 --> 00:26:50,643
our staff process cards at a

737
00:26:50,643 --> 00:26:54,447
rate of 2.7 cards per minute.

738
00:26:54,447 --> 00:26:56,048
In fact, the member library was

739
00:26:56,048 --> 00:26:57,583
the first in the LA County

740
00:26:57,583 --> 00:26:59,385
Library system to run out of

741
00:26:59,385 --> 00:27:01,621
the library card, doing so by

742
00:27:01,621 --> 00:27:04,857
12:30 p.m., with additional

743
00:27:04,857 --> 00:27:05,858
staff from the library

744
00:27:05,858 --> 00:27:07,026
headquarters. Later that

745
00:27:07,026 --> 00:27:08,494
afternoon, our library

746
00:27:08,494 --> 00:27:10,163
distributed the highest number

747
00:27:10,163 --> 00:27:13,566
of hello Kitty library overall.

748
00:27:13,566 --> 00:27:15,601
One customer told us that she

749
00:27:15,601 --> 00:27:17,570
hasn‘t read in years, and the

750
00:27:17,570 --> 00:27:19,672
hello Kitty card was the sign

751
00:27:19,672 --> 00:27:21,007
she needed to get back to

752
00:27:21,007 --> 00:27:24,410
reading. Beyond the hype.

753
00:27:24,410 --> 00:27:27,547
That‘s why this card meters. We

754
00:27:27,547 --> 00:27:28,948
also have some hello Kitty and

755
00:27:28,948 --> 00:27:30,349
friends themed program coming

756
00:27:30,349 --> 00:27:32,585
up this Saturday at 2 p.m. we

757
00:27:32,585 --> 00:27:34,554
are hosting hosting a program,

758
00:27:34,554 --> 00:27:36,689
create, connect and Celebrate

759
00:27:36,689 --> 00:27:38,724

evening.

894
00:31:48,107 --> 00:31:49,608
Good evening, mayor and members

895
00:31:49,608 --> 00:31:55,381
of the City Council. Tonight‘s

896
00:31:55,381 --> 00:31:57,183
request is to split an existing

897
00:31:57,183 --> 00:31:59,885
2.3 acre parcel into two one

898
00:31:59,885 --> 00:32:01,387
acre lots. The property is

899
00:32:01,387 --> 00:32:02,588
currently developed with the

900
00:32:02,588 --> 00:32:04,023
home and the purpose of the lot

901
00:32:04,023 --> 00:32:05,925
split is to create a new vacant

902
00:32:05,925 --> 00:32:07,493
parcel that can be developed in

903
00:32:07,493 --> 00:32:10,963
the future. The site is located

904
00:32:10,963 --> 00:32:12,064
in the Diamond Bar Country

905
00:32:12,064 --> 00:32:13,632
Estates on the north side of

906
00:32:13,632 --> 00:32:15,167
Ridgeline Road, west of

907
00:32:15,167 --> 00:32:18,904
Deringer Lane. In 2019, a lot

908
00:32:18,904 --> 00:32:20,339
line adjustment was recorded to

909
00:32:20,339 --> 00:32:22,007
adjust the side property line

910
00:32:22,007 --> 00:32:23,576
between this lot and the lot to

911
00:32:23,576 --> 00:32:24,944
the west. Prior to the

912
00:32:24,944 --> 00:32:26,712
adjustment, the subject parcel

913
00:32:26,712 --> 00:32:28,614
was 1.8 acres and the

914
00:32:28,614 --> 00:32:30,883
neighboring lot was 1.5 acres.

915
00:32:30,883 --> 00:32:32,284
After the adjustment, the

916
00:32:32,284 --> 00:32:33,853
subject parcel increased in

917
00:32:33,853 --> 00:32:35,921
size to 2.3 acres and the

918
00:32:35,921 --> 00:32:37,323
neighboring lot was reduced to

919
00:32:37,323 --> 00:32:40,025
1.02. This lot line adjustment

920
00:32:40,025 --> 00:32:43,095
was processed specifically, to allow this

921
00:32:43,095 --> 00:32:45,030
property to acquire enough land

922
00:32:45,030 --> 00:32:46,732
to meet the minimum one acre

923
00:32:46,732 --> 00:32:48,300
lot size requirement for this

924
00:32:48,300 --> 00:32:52,138
lot split. These are photos of

925
00:32:52,138 --> 00:32:54,006
the subject lot. The existing

926
00:32:54,006 --> 00:32:55,808
home will remain on parcel one,

927
00:32:55,808 --> 00:32:57,943
and a new home will be proposed

928
00:32:57,943 --> 00:33:01,547
on parcel two at a future time.

929
00:33:01,547 --> 00:33:03,048
This is the layout of the

930
00:33:03,048 --> 00:33:04,850
proposed parcel map. Both

931
00:33:04,850 --> 00:33:06,886
parcels will be just a little

932
00:33:06,886 --> 00:33:10,523
over one acre in size. The lot

933
00:33:10,523 --> 00:33:12,191
split conforms to all of the

934
00:33:12,191 --> 00:33:13,726
city‘s subdivision standards,

935
00:33:13,726 --> 00:33:16,228
such as minimum size, parcel

936
00:33:16,228 --> 00:33:19,832
width, depth, and the owner is

937
00:33:19,832 --> 00:33:21,567
required to pay park fees for

938
00:33:21,567 --> 00:33:23,169
the subdivision. The fees are

939
00:33:23,169 --> 00:33:25,104
used for the creation of new

940
00:33:25,104 --> 00:33:26,772
parks or improving existing

941
00:33:26,772 --> 00:33:28,841
parks. Staff used a fair market

942
00:33:28,841 --> 00:33:31,177
value of 2.8 million acres per

943
00:33:31,177 --> 00:33:32,711
acre, consistent with the

944
00:33:32,711 --> 00:33:34,213
recent local benchmark for

945
00:33:34,213 --> 00:33:35,781
comparable land sales in

946
00:33:35,781 --> 00:33:38,551
Diamond Bar. To acquire land

947
00:33:38,551 --> 00:33:40,386
for park space based on the

948
00:33:40,386 --> 00:33:41,820
formula and the valuation of

949
00:33:41,820 --> 00:33:43,422
land for the park. The in lieu

950
00:33:43,422 --> 00:33:44,790
fee for this project is

951
00:33:44,790 --> 00:33:50,162
$47,600. On three occasions

952
00:33:50,162 --> 00:33:51,664
before this hearing, staff was

953
00:33:51,664 --> 00:33:53,566
contacted by a resident stating

954
00:33:53,566 --> 00:33:55,167
that public records indicate

955
00:33:55,167 --> 00:33:58,003
the lot is 1.79 acres and

956
00:33:58,003 --> 00:33:59,872
therefore does not comply with

957
00:33:59,872 --> 00:34:01,440
the minimum lot size. But as

958
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,108
noted earlier, a lot line

959
00:34:03,108 --> 00:34:05,844
adjustment was recorded in 2019

960
00:34:05,844 --> 00:34:08,847
to facilitate this subdivision.

961
00:34:08,847 --> 00:34:10,249
It was also noted that the

962
00:34:10,249 --> 00:34:12,218
project requires approval from

963
00:34:12,218 --> 00:34:14,587
the HOA. While true that the

964
00:34:14,587 --> 00:34:15,821
owner is subject to the

965
00:34:15,821 --> 00:34:17,423
corners, it is the owner‘s

966
00:34:17,423 --> 00:34:19,058
separate obligation to follow

967
00:34:19,058 --> 00:34:20,960
their rules. The subdivision

968
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:22,861
fully conforms to the city‘s

969
00:34:22,861 --> 00:34:24,296
code, and the city must base

970
00:34:24,296 --> 00:34:26,432
its decision solely on if the

971
00:34:26,432 --> 00:34:28,934
required findings can be made.

972
00:34:28,934 --> 00:34:30,302
Lastly, there was another

973
00:34:30,302 --> 00:34:31,870
concern that the construction

974
00:34:31,870 --> 00:34:33,672
will cause environmental and

975
00:34:33,672 --> 00:34:35,608
burglary issues to neighbors.

976
00:34:35,608 --> 00:34:37,743
The lot split is subject to the

977
00:34:37,743 --> 00:34:39,144
city‘s development standards

978
00:34:39,144 --> 00:34:40,212
and environmental review

979
00:34:40,212 --> 00:34:42,014
requirements. The city has

980
00:34:42,014 --> 00:34:43,549
evaluated this project for

981
00:34:43,549 --> 00:34:45,251
potential environmental

982
00:34:45,251 --> 00:34:46,819
effects, and has found that the

983
00:34:46,819 --> 00:34:48,020
project will not have any

984
00:34:48,020 --> 00:34:50,089
potentially significant impacts

985
00:34:50,089 --> 00:34:51,457
on their environment. With the

986
00:34:51,457 --> 00:34:55,361
proposed mitigation measures.

987
00:34:55,361 --> 00:34:57,062
We acknowledge the commenters

988
00:34:57,062 --> 00:34:58,731
concern regarding construction

989
00:34:58,731 --> 00:35:00,699
site security. However, this

990
00:35:00,699 --> 00:35:02,301
request is for a subdivision

991
00:35:02,301 --> 00:35:03,902
and no construction is proposed

992
00:35:03,902 --> 00:35:05,938
at this time. At the time of

993
00:35:05,938 --> 00:35:07,106
development, construction

994
00:35:07,106 --> 00:35:08,574
activities will be subject to

995
00:35:08,574 --> 00:35:10,175
our requirements in terms of

996
00:35:10,175 --> 00:35:12,311
grading, erosion control, site

997
00:35:12,311 --> 00:35:13,379
maintenance and other

998
00:35:13,379 --> 00:35:14,546
construction related

999
00:35:14,546 --> 00:35:16,682
activities. Compliance with

1000
00:35:16,682 --> 00:35:17,816
these requirements will be

1001
00:35:17,816 --> 00:35:19,084
required as conditions of

1002
00:35:19,084 --> 00:35:22,721
approval at that time. Staff

1003
00:35:22,721 --> 00:35:24,056
prepared an initial study and

1004
00:35:24,056 --> 00:35:25,691
notice of intent to adopt a

1005
00:35:25,691 --> 00:35:27,326
mitigated negative declaration

1006
00:35:27,326 --> 00:35:29,728
for this project. AB 52

1007
00:35:29,728 --> 00:35:31,497
requires tribal consultation

1008
00:35:31,497 --> 00:35:33,932
for project subject to secure.

1009
00:35:33,932 --> 00:35:35,434
One tribe responded. The

1010
00:35:35,434 --> 00:35:36,935
Gabriel Llano Band of Mission

1011
00:35:36,935 --> 00:35:38,871
Indians, who have requested a

1012
00:35:38,871 --> 00:35:40,472
certified Native American

1013
00:35:40,472 --> 00:35:42,074
monitor be on site during

1014
00:35:42,074 --> 00:35:43,976
ground disturbance to protect

1015
00:35:43,976 --> 00:35:45,611
any cultural resources that

1016
00:35:45,611 --> 00:35:47,546
might be found. Staff has

1017
00:35:47,546 --> 00:35:48,981
included this mitigation

1018
00:35:48,981 --> 00:35:50,349
measure in the mitigation,

1019
00:35:50,349 --> 00:35:51,383
Monitoring and Reporting

1020
00:35:51,383 --> 00:35:53,252
program. No other comments were

1021
00:35:53,252 --> 00:35:57,956
received. With that, staff is

1022
00:35:57,956 --> 00:35:59,058
recommending that the City

1023
00:35:59,058 --> 00:36:00,159
Council open the public

1024
00:36:00,159 --> 00:36:01,493
hearing, close the public

1025
00:36:01,493 --> 00:36:02,728
hearing and adopt the

1026
00:36:02,728 --> 00:36:04,063
resolution. Adopting the

1027
00:36:04,063 --> 00:36:05,731
mitigated negative declaration

1028
00:36:05,731 --> 00:36:07,499
for the project and approving

1029
00:36:07,499 --> 00:36:08,934
tentative parcel map number

1030
00:36:08,934 --> 00:36:11,937
83773. Based on the findings of

1031
00:36:11,937 --> 00:36:13,072
fact and subject to the

1032
00:36:13,072 --> 00:36:15,074
conditions of approval. This

1033
00:36:15,074 --> 00:36:18,944
concludes my presentation.

1034
00:36:18,944 --> 00:36:20,879
Thank you very much. Let‘s open

1035
00:36:20,879 --> 00:36:21,914
the public hearing. Is there

1036
00:36:21,914 --> 00:36:22,948
anybody that would like to

1037
00:36:22,948 --> 00:36:25,317
speak to the Council on the

1038
00:36:25,317 --> 00:36:28,354
item? 7.1. Please come

1039
00:36:28,354 --> 00:36:33,992
introduce yourself.

1040
00:36:33,992 --> 00:36:36,895
Hello, my name is Charlie. I

1041
00:36:36,895 --> 00:36:40,733
live in the country. Uh, you

1042
00:36:40,733 --> 00:36:46,572
know, near the subject lot. Uh,

1043
00:36:46,572 --> 00:36:50,075
I like to say a mere t and all.

1044
00:36:50,075 --> 00:36:52,544
The council member and doctor

1045
00:36:52,544 --> 00:36:57,783
Ken. Uh. Good evening. Um, my

1046
00:36:57,783 --> 00:37:01,220
opinion is that I searched the

1047
00:37:01,220 --> 00:37:03,489
property, uh, from the

1048
00:37:03,489 --> 00:37:07,059
assessor‘s office and the Los

1049
00:37:07,059 --> 00:37:10,396
Angeles County office, and it

1050
00:37:10,396 --> 00:37:12,698
turned out to be the largest

1051
00:37:12,698 --> 00:37:22,074
1.78 or 1.79, which is seven

1052
00:37:22,074 --> 00:37:28,547
78,878, uh, square foot, which

1053
00:37:28,547 --> 00:37:35,621
is about 1.79 acres. So my

1054
00:37:35,621 --> 00:37:39,591
opinion is if, uh, the rural

1055
00:37:39,591 --> 00:37:42,728
zoning require, uh, at least

1056
00:37:42,728 --> 00:37:45,697
one acre for the subdivisions,

1057
00:37:45,697 --> 00:37:49,268
the subject lot does not meet

1058
00:37:49,268 --> 00:37:52,504
the requirement. Uh, that‘s my

1059
00:37:52,504 --> 00:37:55,007
opinion. Of course, the country

1060
00:37:55,007 --> 00:37:57,743
has a HOA. I don‘t know whether

1061
00:37:57,743 --> 00:38:00,279
that‘s, you know, uh, the

1062
00:38:00,279 --> 00:38:03,348
subject need the approval from

1063
00:38:03,348 --> 00:38:07,553
the country. The HOA. Thank you

1064
00:38:07,553 --> 00:38:08,821
so much.

1065
00:38:08,821 --> 00:38:09,988
Thank you for being here.

1066
00:38:09,988 --> 00:38:10,956
Anybody else would like to

1067
00:38:10,956 --> 00:38:14,693
speak on this item? Okay.

1068
00:38:14,693 --> 00:38:16,528
Hearing nobody, we will, um,

1069
00:38:16,528 --> 00:38:19,498
close the public hearing. Um,

1070
00:38:19,498 --> 00:38:21,700
may. Can you. I think we all

1071
00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:22,701
heard that earlier. If you

1072
00:38:22,701 --> 00:38:24,503
could just, uh, speak to

1073
00:38:24,503 --> 00:38:26,438
Charlie‘s concerns.

1074
00:38:26,438 --> 00:38:29,341
Yes. So the document that

1075
00:38:29,341 --> 00:38:31,009
Charlie was referencing was

1076
00:38:31,009 --> 00:38:33,178
likely an outdated parcel map.

1077
00:38:33,178 --> 00:38:34,613
That‘s what the lot used to

1078
00:38:34,613 --> 00:38:36,148
look like. But after the lot

1079
00:38:36,148 --> 00:38:38,050
line adjustment was processed,

1080
00:38:38,050 --> 00:38:40,185
the subject parcel increased to

1081
00:38:40,185 --> 00:38:42,154
2.3 acres. And they did that

1082
00:38:42,154 --> 00:38:44,156
specifically so that they can

1083
00:38:44,156 --> 00:38:46,758
do the slot split.

1084
00:38:46,758 --> 00:38:49,328
Okay. Thank you very much. Yes.

1085
00:38:49,328 --> 00:38:51,597
Please go ahead.

1086
00:38:51,597 --> 00:38:53,699
Update that. Uh, well, would it

1087
00:38:53,699 --> 00:38:56,869
be an updated of of the final,

1088
00:38:56,869 --> 00:38:58,670
uh, acreage of this property?

1089
00:38:58,670 --> 00:39:01,139
So that will be official in

1090
00:39:01,139 --> 00:39:03,308
black and white that the, that

1091
00:39:03,308 --> 00:39:05,110
the property is more than two

1092
00:39:05,110 --> 00:39:06,745
acres and can be divided. Would

1093
00:39:06,745 --> 00:39:08,614
it be in a formal document like

1094
00:39:08,614 --> 00:39:13,118
that?

1095
00:39:13,118 --> 00:39:14,453
Uh, really quickly. So the

1096
00:39:14,453 --> 00:39:16,555
answer is yes. After that line

1097
00:39:16,555 --> 00:39:19,558
adjustments. Uh, then it gets

1098
00:39:19,558 --> 00:39:22,394
the city engineer approval and

1099
00:39:22,394 --> 00:39:23,595
stamp, and then it goes to the

1100
00:39:23,595 --> 00:39:26,398
county. My my understanding is

1101
00:39:26,398 --> 00:39:28,433
that counties are a little late

1102
00:39:28,433 --> 00:39:31,303
in updating their records. So

1103
00:39:31,303 --> 00:39:33,906
these go to the county, not the

1104
00:39:33,906 --> 00:39:35,607
assessor, but the county

1105
00:39:35,607 --> 00:39:37,676
clerk‘s recorder‘s office. And

1106
00:39:37,676 --> 00:39:40,145
there‘s a separate property,

1107
00:39:40,145 --> 00:39:42,214
uh, property office for LA

1108
00:39:42,214 --> 00:39:44,416
County. And it‘s a big

1109
00:39:44,416 --> 00:39:46,051
bureaucracy. So by the time it

1110
00:39:46,051 --> 00:39:48,654
gets to the actual map

1111
00:39:48,654 --> 00:39:50,355
available to the public, it

1112
00:39:50,355 --> 00:39:53,792
will take some time.

1113
00:39:53,792 --> 00:39:55,894
But shall we wait until the

1114
00:39:55,894 --> 00:40:00,432
formal, uh, document to.

1115
00:40:00,432 --> 00:40:02,834
Document has been approved, and

1116
00:40:02,834 --> 00:40:04,770
it‘s with the county. But

1117
00:40:04,770 --> 00:40:08,106
whether so. And it‘s in mylar

1118
00:40:08,106 --> 00:40:11,577
form. When that gets digitized

1119
00:40:11,577 --> 00:40:13,145
and available to the public,

1120
00:40:13,145 --> 00:40:15,614
that can take some time. So if

1121
00:40:15,614 --> 00:40:17,115
you go to the right office,

1122
00:40:17,115 --> 00:40:18,984
you‘ll be able to see it where

1123
00:40:18,984 --> 00:40:19,985
you cannot take it and you

1124
00:40:19,985 --> 00:40:21,687
cannot touch it. You can only

1125
00:40:21,687 --> 00:40:24,056
see it if you want to copy.

1126
00:40:24,056 --> 00:40:26,858
It‘s going to take some time.

1127
00:40:26,858 --> 00:40:28,026
Thank you.

1128
00:40:28,026 --> 00:40:28,427
Any other.

1129
00:40:28,427 --> 00:40:31,830
Questions? No. Okay.

1130
00:40:31,830 --> 00:40:36,635
Someone like to make a motion.

1131
00:40:36,635 --> 00:40:37,769
I‘ll make the motion for

1132
00:40:37,769 --> 00:40:42,941

2020 6320, second.

1134
00:40:45,978 --> 00:40:47,946
Okay. I have a motion from

1135
00:40:47,946 --> 00:40:49,514
Councilman Chao and a second

1136
00:40:49,514 --> 00:40:52,250
from Councilman Liu.

1137
00:40:52,250 --> 00:40:53,518
Call the roll, please.

1138
00:40:53,518 --> 00:40:54,886
Yes, Mr. mayor, Council member

1139
00:40:54,886 --> 00:40:55,220
Chao.

1140
00:40:55,220 --> 00:40:55,654
Yes.

1141
00:40:55,654 --> 00:40:57,055
Council member Liu. Yes.

1142
00:40:57,055 --> 00:40:58,323
Council member. Tang.

1143
00:40:58,323 --> 00:40:59,024
Yes.

1144
00:40:59,024 --> 00:41:01,026
Mayor. Pro tem lo. Yes. Mayor.

1145
00:41:01,026 --> 00:41:01,460
Tai.

1146
00:41:01,460 --> 00:41:03,862
Yes. Okay. That passes

1147
00:41:03,862 --> 00:41:05,731
unanimously five zero. And that

1148
00:41:05,731 --> 00:41:08,634
brings us to, uh, council

1149
00:41:08,634 --> 00:41:09,701
consideration, which we have

1150
00:41:09,701 --> 00:41:11,370
none of, uh, council

1151
00:41:11,370 --> 00:41:12,671
subcommittee reports and

1152
00:41:12,671 --> 00:41:14,239
meeting attendance reports.

1153
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,675
Let‘s start with, uh,

1154
00:41:16,675 --> 00:41:18,944
Councilman Tang.

1155
00:41:18,944 --> 00:41:20,746
I have no report.

1156
00:41:20,746 --> 00:41:22,381
That was short and sweet. Thank

1157
00:41:22,381 --> 00:41:24,916
you. Uh, that brings us to

1158
00:41:24,916 --> 00:41:26,418
Councilman Liu.

1159
00:41:26,418 --> 00:41:28,220
Uh, thank you, mayor. I thank

1160
00:41:28,220 --> 00:41:30,088
staff for the presentation and

1161
00:41:30,088 --> 00:41:32,958
also the detail. Uh, response

1162
00:41:32,958 --> 00:41:35,527
and clarifications. Thank you.

1163
00:41:35,527 --> 00:41:38,630
Uh, as always, um, the weather

1164
00:41:38,630 --> 00:41:41,133
lately has been very hot and

1165
00:41:41,133 --> 00:41:43,301
humid. Uh, please continue to

1166
00:41:43,301 --> 00:41:44,670
check up on each other, our

1167
00:41:44,670 --> 00:41:46,338
neighbors, and also the rain

1168
00:41:46,338 --> 00:41:47,773
that‘s coming, apparently next

1169
00:41:47,773 --> 00:41:49,307
week. And when that happens.

1170
00:41:49,307 --> 00:41:50,809
Let‘s also check on our

1171
00:41:50,809 --> 00:41:53,078
neighbors as well. And with

1172
00:41:53,078 --> 00:41:54,513
that, and I look forward to

1173
00:41:54,513 --> 00:41:56,815
seeing everyone around town for

1174
00:41:56,815 --> 00:41:58,984
Restaurant Week. As I say, good

1175
00:41:58,984 --> 00:42:01,787
night. Thank you.

1176
00:42:01,787 --> 00:42:03,255
Councilman Chow.

1177
00:42:03,255 --> 00:42:04,623
Thank you. Mayor. Just a quick

1178
00:42:04,623 --> 00:42:06,358
report. I did attend the Cal

1179
00:42:06,358 --> 00:42:08,894
City‘s, uh, annual conference.

1180
00:42:08,894 --> 00:42:10,929
Uh, so, if you recall, I‘m a

1181
00:42:10,929 --> 00:42:12,431
voting delegate, so I was able

1182
00:42:12,431 --> 00:42:13,932
to vote on the, uh, the

1183
00:42:13,932 --> 00:42:16,635
resolution. Just a quick recap.

1184
00:42:16,635 --> 00:42:18,437
So the General Assembly

1185
00:42:18,437 --> 00:42:20,472
resolution one was submitted by

1186
00:42:20,472 --> 00:42:23,141
the city of Marietta. Uh, it

1187
00:42:23,141 --> 00:42:25,544
was approved, as amended. So

1188
00:42:25,544 --> 00:42:26,511
just to summarize, the

1189
00:42:26,511 --> 00:42:28,447
resolution calls on Cal City to

1190
00:42:28,447 --> 00:42:30,782
consider forming a statewide

1191
00:42:30,782 --> 00:42:32,384
working group to explore a

1192
00:42:32,384 --> 00:42:34,453
constitutional amendment or

1193
00:42:34,453 --> 00:42:36,555
other legislative policy or

1194
00:42:36,555 --> 00:42:38,190
ballot based strategy to

1195
00:42:38,190 --> 00:42:40,659
strengthen local control. Uh,

1196
00:42:40,659 --> 00:42:42,427
and also preserves the state‘s

1197
00:42:42,427 --> 00:42:44,329
role in setting broad housing

1198
00:42:44,329 --> 00:42:45,630
goals and enforcing fair

1199
00:42:45,630 --> 00:42:46,431
housing safety and

1200
00:42:46,431 --> 00:42:48,233
environmental standards, while

1201
00:42:48,233 --> 00:42:49,468
advocating for additional

1202
00:42:49,468 --> 00:42:50,669
affordable housing funding

1203
00:42:50,669 --> 00:42:52,637
resources. So essentially what

1204
00:42:52,637 --> 00:42:54,072
it does is it‘s asking the

1205
00:42:54,072 --> 00:42:56,174
state board of Cal City to form

1206
00:42:56,174 --> 00:42:59,511
a statewide advocacy body where

1207
00:42:59,511 --> 00:43:01,079
they can advocate for the state

1208
00:43:01,079 --> 00:43:03,215
to pass some sort of, um,

1209
00:43:03,215 --> 00:43:05,050
potentially a ballot measure in

1210
00:43:05,050 --> 00:43:08,019
2030, uh, for a constitutional

1211
00:43:08,019 --> 00:43:09,488
amendment. So that did pass

1212
00:43:09,488 --> 00:43:11,456
with overwhelming support at

1213
00:43:11,456 --> 00:43:13,458
the General Assembly at the Cal

1214
00:43:13,458 --> 00:43:17,229
City. Um conference. In

1215
00:43:17,229 --> 00:43:18,463
addition, I attended several

1216
00:43:18,463 --> 00:43:19,531
sessions, and one of the things

1217
00:43:19,531 --> 00:43:21,333
that was most interesting, the

1218
00:43:21,333 --> 00:43:24,035
folks from Santa Barbara

1219
00:43:24,035 --> 00:43:25,370
actually presented on what

1220
00:43:25,370 --> 00:43:26,638
they‘re doing with the State

1221
00:43:26,638 --> 00:43:28,173
Street. So for those of you

1222
00:43:28,173 --> 00:43:30,308
that have visited the city,

1223
00:43:30,308 --> 00:43:31,943
they‘re doing very interesting

1224
00:43:31,943 --> 00:43:33,211
things there. So they have

1225
00:43:33,211 --> 00:43:34,780
completely revamped the entire

1226
00:43:34,780 --> 00:43:36,715
State Street. And the way they

1227
00:43:36,715 --> 00:43:38,016
did it, they actually divided

1228
00:43:38,016 --> 00:43:39,217
that street into different

1229
00:43:39,217 --> 00:43:41,153
sections. So they have one area

1230
00:43:41,153 --> 00:43:43,388
designated the Funk Zone. I

1231
00:43:43,388 --> 00:43:44,489
don‘t know if you have been

1232
00:43:44,489 --> 00:43:45,624
down there and wondering is,

1233
00:43:45,624 --> 00:43:47,292
designated as the art zone. And

1234
00:43:47,292 --> 00:43:49,261
once purely for entertainment,

1235
00:43:49,261 --> 00:43:51,396
and they repurposed a couple of

1236
00:43:51,396 --> 00:43:53,198
buildings to, um, to

1237
00:43:53,198 --> 00:43:54,299
headquarters of different

1238
00:43:54,299 --> 00:43:56,234
corporations, and some of them

1239
00:43:56,234 --> 00:43:58,737
took over the vacant Macy‘s and

1240
00:43:58,737 --> 00:44:00,372
Nordstrom. So they‘re doing a

1241
00:44:00,372 --> 00:44:01,506
lot of good work down there.

1242
00:44:01,506 --> 00:44:02,474
And I was able to take back

1243
00:44:02,474 --> 00:44:03,875
some ideas and talk to a few

1244
00:44:03,875 --> 00:44:05,010
folks. Some of the council

1245
00:44:05,010 --> 00:44:06,745
members from Santa Barbara. So

1246
00:44:06,745 --> 00:44:09,314
as we start to develop our own

1247
00:44:09,314 --> 00:44:10,949
downtown area, I think there‘s

1248
00:44:10,949 --> 00:44:11,917
a lot of things we‘re going to

1249
00:44:11,917 --> 00:44:14,219
learn from them. And so glad

1250
00:44:14,219 --> 00:44:15,453
that I was able to attend that

1251
00:44:15,453 --> 00:44:16,621
conference, and hopefully we

1252
00:44:16,621 --> 00:44:18,256
can bring some of those ideas

1253
00:44:18,256 --> 00:44:19,658
to our subcommittee meetings in

1254
00:44:19,658 --> 00:44:21,493
a couple of weeks and, and see

1255
00:44:21,493 --> 00:44:23,028
if we can get some of the ideas

1256
00:44:23,028 --> 00:44:24,663
to implement it here. So with

1257
00:44:24,663 --> 00:44:25,430
that, I‘ll say good night.

1258
00:44:25,430 --> 00:44:26,565
Thank you.

1259
00:44:26,565 --> 00:44:28,333
Mister Chair. I just

1260
00:44:28,333 --> 00:44:29,968
don‘t want to burst your

1261
00:44:29,968 --> 00:44:31,169
bubble. There will be no funk

1262
00:44:31,169 --> 00:44:32,704
area in Diamond Bar.

1263
00:44:32,704 --> 00:44:37,709
Oh, we‘ll bring the funk.

1264
00:44:37,709 --> 00:44:39,544
Mayor Pro Tem lowe.

1265
00:44:39,544 --> 00:44:40,912
Well, that‘s very exciting

1266
00:44:40,912 --> 00:44:42,247
because I lived in Santa

1267
00:44:42,247 --> 00:44:43,548
Barbara for several, many

1268
00:44:43,548 --> 00:44:45,984
years, so I love that city. And

1269
00:44:45,984 --> 00:44:47,619
so it‘s, uh, I remember when

1270
00:44:47,619 --> 00:44:49,254
they were building that, uh,

1271
00:44:49,254 --> 00:44:51,423
Macy‘s and that whole, um,

1272
00:44:51,423 --> 00:44:54,059
Paseo that was really, really,

1273
00:44:54,059 --> 00:44:56,261
um, a big thing. And so it‘s

1274
00:44:56,261 --> 00:44:57,329
glad I‘m glad that they were

1275
00:44:57,329 --> 00:44:59,231
able to repurpose that and, and

1276
00:44:59,231 --> 00:45:00,832
do something good with that.

1277
00:45:00,832 --> 00:45:03,501
Um, this period I attended the,

1278
00:45:03,501 --> 00:45:08,974
uh, the Los Angeles County, uh, public Los Angeles Library

1279
00:45:08,974 --> 00:45:10,942
Commission and, uh, and there

1280
00:45:10,942 --> 00:45:13,278
we were introduced to the hello

1281
00:45:13,278 --> 00:45:14,512
Kitty promotion, which our

1282
00:45:14,512 --> 00:45:15,947
librarian talked about today.

1283
00:45:15,947 --> 00:45:17,616
And, uh, I think we need to

1284
00:45:17,616 --> 00:45:18,583
tell them that, of course,

1285
00:45:18,583 --> 00:45:20,018
Diamond Bar is number one once

1286
00:45:20,018 --> 00:45:22,454
again. Um, and it was really a

1287
00:45:22,454 --> 00:45:24,389
very, very, forward thinking

1288
00:45:24,389 --> 00:45:26,024
promotion. And the library is

1289
00:45:26,024 --> 00:45:28,026
doing lots of things for the

1290
00:45:28,026 --> 00:45:30,228
community, including, um,

1291
00:45:30,228 --> 00:45:32,063
getting people to read. And now

1292
00:45:32,063 --> 00:45:34,266
the other new thing is, um,

1293
00:45:34,266 --> 00:45:36,534
having Writers Summit. So for

1294
00:45:36,534 --> 00:45:38,637
aspiring authors who want to

1295
00:45:38,637 --> 00:45:39,971
write something or if you have

1296
00:45:39,971 --> 00:45:41,740
a book in your brain, well, you

1297
00:45:41,740 --> 00:45:43,909
know, if this is the time and

1298
00:45:43,909 --> 00:45:45,210
our library is here to help you

1299
00:45:45,210 --> 00:45:46,678
to develop your skills and

1300
00:45:46,678 --> 00:45:48,813
bring your creativity to life.

1301
00:45:48,813 --> 00:45:50,582
Um, thank you, Mister McLean,

1302
00:45:50,582 --> 00:45:53,118
for your staff on the, um, El

1303
00:45:53,118 --> 00:45:55,053
Nino and the preparedness. Um,

1304
00:45:55,053 --> 00:45:56,187
we just really need to be

1305
00:45:56,187 --> 00:45:59,391
prepared so that, um, so that

1306
00:45:59,391 --> 00:46:02,093
we avoid problems later on. So

1307
00:46:02,093 --> 00:46:03,161
thank you. And with that, I‘ll

1308
00:46:03,161 --> 00:46:05,530
say good night.

1309
00:46:05,530 --> 00:46:07,399
Thank you. I do, I echo that,

1310
00:46:07,399 --> 00:46:08,767
thank you very much, City

1311
00:46:08,767 --> 00:46:10,135
Manager McLean, for bringing

1312
00:46:10,135 --> 00:46:12,871
that El Nino information to the

1313
00:46:12,871 --> 00:46:14,105
community. It‘s it‘s one of

1314
00:46:14,105 --> 00:46:16,308
those things where you don‘t

1315
00:46:16,308 --> 00:46:19,311
want to be caught thinking, how

1316
00:46:19,311 --> 00:46:20,478
come nobody told me this was

1317
00:46:20,478 --> 00:46:22,347
happening? How come? How come

1318
00:46:22,347 --> 00:46:25,116
there‘s going to be a huge, uh,

1319
00:46:25,116 --> 00:46:27,852
I think I think it‘s on coming

1320
00:46:27,852 --> 00:46:29,688
up on Sunday. It could be

1321
00:46:29,688 --> 00:46:30,455
Monday that we‘re going to

1322
00:46:30,455 --> 00:46:32,357
have, uh, be inundated with

1323
00:46:32,357 --> 00:46:33,959
water so we can use it. It

1324
00:46:33,959 --> 00:46:35,026
beats the heck out of the heat.

1325
00:46:35,026 --> 00:46:36,928
So, uh, having said that, I

1326
00:46:36,928 --> 00:46:39,864
will say, uh, I‘m sorry about

1327
00:46:39,864 --> 00:46:42,734
the very again. I‘m sorry about

1328
00:46:42,734 --> 00:46:45,537
the Red Sox, but go, Dodgers.

1329
00:46:45,537 --> 00:46:47,639
Okay, can you get into that

1330
00:46:47,639 --> 00:46:49,674
with that? I will say at 715.

1331
00:46:49,674 --> 00:52:04,289
Good night and God bless you.

1332
00:52:04,289 --> 00:52:34,485
We‘ll see. Are they on your

1333
00:52:34,485 --> 00:52:37,322
desk? On my desk. I‘ll probably

1334
00:52:37,322 --> 00:52:38,856
go right now on your. Okay. And

1335
00:52:38,856 --> 00:52:39,624
I‘ll leave em on your desk.

1336
00:52:39,624 --> 00:52:40,491
Okay. Perfect. Thank you. And

1337
00:52:40,491 --> 00:52:41,292
I‘ll probably go through you

1338
00:52:41,292 --> 00:52:43,428
then. That‘s fine. I think I

1339
00:52:43,428 --> 00:52:45,296
left for you. I left some stuff.

1340
00:52:45,296 --> 00:52:51,536
Is. Is anybody in? Oh, yeah.
