m here. Councilmember calf is

00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:16,868

And council member Stewart.

100
00:03:19,805 --> 00:03:20,205
Outstanding. Okay. So we

101
00:03:20,205 --> 00:03:21,273
re all

102
00:03:21,273 --> 00:03:22,408
here. Let

103
00:03:22,408 --> 00:03:22,574
s start out. Uh,

104
00:03:22,574 --> 00:03:23,475
we

105
00:03:23,475 --> 00:03:25,440
re going to we have four

106
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,460
presentations today. Our first

107
00:03:27,460 --> 00:03:29,148
one is going to be, uh,

108
00:03:29,148 --> 00:03:29,948
regarding the 250th anniversary

109
00:03:29,948 --> 00:03:31,717
for the United States of

110
00:03:31,717 --> 00:03:33,452
America. So we always have a

111
00:03:33,452 --> 00:03:35,870
quote this year from our

112
00:03:35,870 --> 00:03:37,900
founding fathers. But I think,

113
00:03:37,900 --> 00:03:37,261
Stu, you have two quotes that

114
00:03:37,261 --> 00:03:37,790
you

115
00:03:37,790 --> 00:03:39,258
re going to add, which I

116
00:03:39,258 --> 00:03:39,415
was really appreciative of. So

117
00:03:39,415 --> 00:03:40,727
I

118
00:03:40,727 --> 00:03:44,397
m going to roll it to you.

119
00:03:44,397 --> 00:03:48,597
All right. So I believe we have

120
00:03:49,402 --> 00:03:51,271
a, uh, slide. There we go. The

121
00:03:51,271 --> 00:03:53,272
purpose of money is to purchase

122
00:03:53,272 --> 00:03:55,800
the freedom to pursue that

123
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,408
which was useful and

124
00:03:58,378 --> 00:04:00,314
interesting. And this is a

125
00:04:00,314 --> 00:04:03,150
whole different quote. When you

126
00:04:03,150 --> 00:04:05,319
run in debt, you give another

127
00:04:05,319 --> 00:04:08,319
person, you give another power

128
00:04:08,455 --> 00:04:10,591
over your liberty. And so this

129
00:04:10,591 --> 00:04:13,461
is kind of apropos for the city

130
00:04:13,461 --> 00:04:15,997
of Temecula, because we use

131
00:04:15,997 --> 00:04:18,766
that money for really, really

132
00:04:18,766 --> 00:04:20,801
good purposes. Um, and one of

133
00:04:20,801 --> 00:04:21,569
those purposes is to get out of

134
00:04:21,569 --> 00:04:23,700
debt. So we

135
00:04:23,700 --> 00:04:25,470
re literally a debt

136
00:04:26,474 --> 00:04:28,409
free city in about 4 or 5 more

137
00:04:28,409 --> 00:04:30,479
weeks, we will be completely

138
00:04:30,479 --> 00:04:30,846
pension obligation free. We

139
00:04:30,846 --> 00:04:32,846
ve

140
00:04:34,490 --> 00:04:37,490
been, uh, facilities debt free

141
00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:41,519
for about a year now. And so,

142
00:04:41,923 --> 00:04:46,123
um, just using the money in the

143
00:04:46,162 --> 00:04:49,762
most effective way is, is how

144
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,803
you control, uh. People from

145
00:04:53,803 --> 00:04:55,471
controlling you. And so, so by

146
00:04:55,471 --> 00:04:57,539
staying out of debt, by using

147
00:04:57,539 --> 00:05:00,539
the money for good purposes,

148
00:05:00,843 --> 00:05:01,677
such as parks and, uh, we

149
00:05:01,677 --> 00:05:01,844
ve

150
00:05:01,844 --> 00:05:03,844
we

151
00:05:04,140 --> 00:05:06,917
ve done so much with it

152
00:05:06,917 --> 00:05:10,253
while paying down the debt. So

153
00:05:10,253 --> 00:05:13,253
really, we with the pickleball

154
00:05:14,557 --> 00:05:17,260
and the, uh, the, uh, skate

155
00:05:17,260 --> 00:05:19,950
park and the roller rink, all

156
00:05:19,950 --> 00:05:21,532
this was done while we were

157
00:05:21,532 --> 00:05:21,832
still paying down our debt. So?

158
00:05:21,832 --> 00:05:23,500
So it

159
00:05:23,500 --> 00:05:24,701
s amazing once you once

160
00:05:24,701 --> 00:05:26,737
you get control of your

161
00:05:26,737 --> 00:05:28,939
finances, what a difference

162
00:05:28,939 --> 00:05:30,841
that can make in government and

163
00:05:30,841 --> 00:05:31,942
in your own personal life. So

164
00:05:31,942 --> 00:05:33,410
thank you.

165
00:05:33,410 --> 00:05:35,646
All right. Great job. Thank you

166
00:05:35,646 --> 00:05:37,848
very much. Sue. All right. The

167
00:05:37,848 --> 00:05:40,510
next presentation is going to

168
00:05:40,510 --> 00:05:40,251
be read by myself. And it

169
00:05:40,251 --> 00:05:42,251
s a

170
00:05:42,287 --> 00:05:44,222
presentation of certificate of

171
00:05:44,222 --> 00:05:44,756
a recognition to Dorothy

172
00:05:44,756 --> 00:05:45,690
Skidmore. We

173
00:05:45,690 --> 00:05:47,858
re also known as

174
00:05:47,858 --> 00:05:49,794
Dottie, recognizing her for her

175
00:05:49,794 --> 00:05:50,895
102nd birthday. So she was

176
00:05:50,895 --> 00:05:53,970
supposed to be here with us

177
00:05:53,970 --> 00:05:53,270
today. And to my understanding,

178
00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:54,799
she

179
00:05:54,799 --> 00:05:55,667
s watching online. So if

180
00:05:55,667 --> 00:05:58,670
everybody can say happy

181
00:05:59,138 --> 00:06:00,172
birthday, happy birthday, I was

182
00:06:00,172 --> 00:06:01,390
going to sing to her. But I

183
00:06:01,390 --> 00:06:02,708
think that would take some

184
00:06:02,708 --> 00:06:02,863
time. Um, but I just I

185
00:06:02,863 --> 00:06:03,809
m

186
00:06:03,809 --> 00:06:04,810
putting a little shout out as

187
00:06:04,810 --> 00:06:05,611
well, because I

188
00:06:05,611 --> 00:06:07,120
m planning on

189
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,280
actually going to our house to

190
00:06:08,280 --> 00:06:08,447
present this certificate, so I

191
00:06:08,447 --> 00:06:09,248
don

192
00:06:09,248 --> 00:06:10,883
t know if she knows that.

193
00:06:10,883 --> 00:06:12,351
So here within the next couple

194

So I

00:07:11,479 --> 00:07:13,882
ll be seeing you here

229
00:07:13,882 --> 00:07:16,317
shortly. Alright, so that being

230
00:07:16,317 --> 00:07:19,540
said, uh, the next one is going

231
00:07:19,540 --> 00:07:20,655
to be a presentation by MR.

232
00:07:20,655 --> 00:07:23,526
Scott. I want to say this

233
00:07:23,526 --> 00:07:25,327
right. Rainer Ranger I see.

234
00:07:25,327 --> 00:07:26,662
Okay, there we go. Of the Rose

235
00:07:26,662 --> 00:07:27,530
Haven Heritage Garden if you

236
00:07:27,530 --> 00:07:28,831
would like to come up. And I

237
00:07:28,831 --> 00:07:29,765
think you have a couple of

238
00:07:29,765 --> 00:07:33,365
people that you want to bring

239
00:07:33,569 --> 00:07:33,802
up with you just to point out

240
00:07:33,802 --> 00:07:35,404
what we

241
00:07:35,404 --> 00:07:37,390
re doing today. So once

242
00:07:37,390 --> 00:07:39,274
a month we have a local

243
00:07:39,274 --> 00:07:40,242
nonprofit coming out to be able

244
00:07:40,242 --> 00:07:41,978
to highlight what they do

245
00:07:41,978 --> 00:07:43,680
within the community, uh, how

246
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,348
they, how they, they serve

247
00:07:45,348 --> 00:07:46,783
others, what that looks like.

248
00:07:46,783 --> 00:07:48,218
And serving others look so

249
00:07:48,218 --> 00:07:49,319
different. And so I wanted to

250
00:07:49,319 --> 00:07:51,454
be able to bring up different

251
00:07:51,454 --> 00:07:53,523
nonprofits, similar to the Rose

252
00:07:53,523 --> 00:07:55,910
Haven Heritage Garden, to just

253
00:07:55,910 --> 00:07:55,758
kind of show off what they do

254
00:07:55,758 --> 00:07:56,459
and what they

255
00:07:56,459 --> 00:07:57,593
re needing, and

256
00:07:57,593 --> 00:07:59,463
how our community can get

257
00:07:59,463 --> 00:08:01,498
involved as community service

258
00:08:01,498 --> 00:08:02,633
community here in our city. So

259
00:08:02,633 --> 00:08:04,602
I want to just say one thing

260
00:08:04,602 --> 00:08:07,370
before you start. Sure. I had

261
00:08:07,370 --> 00:08:09,173
individuals call after our

262
00:08:09,173 --> 00:08:10,541
state of the city and say,

263
00:08:10,541 --> 00:08:12,776
literally tell me that they

264
00:08:12,776 --> 00:08:13,577
went to the Rose Haven after

265
00:08:13,577 --> 00:08:13,777
state of the city because they

266
00:08:13,777 --> 00:08:14,744
didn

267
00:08:14,744 --> 00:08:15,208
t even know what existed.

268
00:08:15,208 --> 00:08:16,247
So we

269
00:08:16,247 --> 00:08:16,407

00:08:16,407 --> 00:08:16,648

273
00:08:17,841 --> 00:08:18,583

274
00:08:18,583 --> 00:08:19,150
going to have you take it away

275
00:08:19,150 --> 00:08:20,852
from now.

276
00:08:20,852 --> 00:08:22,487
Well, thank you so much, mayor,

277
00:08:22,487 --> 00:08:22,817

278
00:08:22,817 --> 00:08:24,155

280
00:08:26,491 --> 00:08:28,793
increase our visibility. So on

281

282
00:08:30,528 --> 00:08:32,497

283
00:08:32,497 --> 00:08:34,366
Heritage Garden, thank you for

284
00:08:34,366 --> 00:08:36,368

285
00:08:36,368 --> 00:08:38,537
you our new video, Extending

286
00:08:38,537 --> 00:08:41,240
the Legacy of Rose Haven,

287
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:43,410
produced by the Media Lab,

288
00:08:43,410 --> 00:08:45,177
which is a film and media

289
00:08:45,177 --> 00:08:47,577
school in Temecula providing

00:08:47,612 --> 00:08:50,120
vocational skills training to

291
00:08:50,515 --> 00:08:52,515
adults with disabilities.

292
00:08:52,852 --> 00:08:54,453
Established in 2020, Media Lab

293
00:08:54,453 --> 00:08:57,890
has grown from six students to

294
00:08:57,890 --> 00:08:58,524
a current roster of 85, all of

295
00:08:58,524 --> 00:09:00,126
whom are given the opportunity

296
00:09:00,126 --> 00:09:02,395
to learn how to write scripts,

297
00:09:02,395 --> 00:09:05,395
run cameras, perform, edit and

298
00:09:05,798 --> 00:09:08,234
distribute their work on media.

299
00:09:08,234 --> 00:09:10,203
The Media Lab has also produced,

300
00:09:10,203 --> 00:09:12,439
uh, video collaborations with

301
00:09:12,439 --> 00:09:14,541
the city of Temecula. Zach, you

302
00:09:14,541 --> 00:09:16,243
MAY know that from your state

303
00:09:16,243 --> 00:09:17,878
of the city address that he did

304
00:09:17,878 --> 00:09:20,346
a video for you, so you have

305
00:09:20,346 --> 00:09:22,482
some knowledge. Having produced

306
00:09:22,482 --> 00:09:24,684
our video pro bono, we felt

307
00:09:24,684 --> 00:09:27,840
they deserved some well-earned

308
00:09:28,255 --> 00:09:29,857
community recognition. So let

309
00:09:29,857 --> 00:09:32,159

00:09:32,159 --> 00:09:32,353

Thank you.

321
00:09:54,516 --> 00:09:55,830
Welcome to our garden. I

322
00:09:55,830 --> 00:09:56,818
ve

323
00:09:56,818 --> 00:09:58,753
been with the society since we

324
00:09:58,753 --> 00:10:00,753
started in 1990.

325
00:10:00,890 --> 00:10:03,325
In the newspaper one day there

326
00:10:03,325 --> 00:10:05,160
was a little notice about a

327
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,828
beginning road society, and so

328
00:10:06,828 --> 00:10:08,664
I went to the meeting. Rebecca

329
00:10:08,664 --> 00:10:10,899
was there and we started the

330
00:10:10,899 --> 00:10:13,402
Rosa. About a year later, bill

331
00:10:13,402 --> 00:10:14,770
Johnson does this corner lot.

332
00:10:14,770 --> 00:10:15,938
He said we could plant a rose

333
00:10:15,938 --> 00:10:17,940
garden here. And we started

334
00:10:17,940 --> 00:10:19,742
with about 400 rose bushes.

335
00:10:19,742 --> 00:10:22,512
Here we are today, 35 years

336
00:10:22,512 --> 00:10:24,547
later with a beautiful spot.

337
00:10:24,547 --> 00:10:27,500
So I joined the newly formed

338
00:10:27,500 --> 00:10:29,180
Rose society and decided that I

339
00:10:29,180 --> 00:10:31,287
would become a consulting rose

340
00:10:31,287 --> 00:10:33,456
in creating a garden like this

341
00:10:33,456 --> 00:10:33,623
require not only money, we

342
00:10:33,623 --> 00:10:35,623
don

343
00:10:35,625 --> 00:10:37,561
t have government support.

344
00:10:37,561 --> 00:10:39,363
We do ask for donations of

345
00:10:39,363 --> 00:10:41,799
people who visit the garden.

346
00:10:41,799 --> 00:10:45,399
Also the volunteers to make it

347
00:10:46,570 --> 00:10:46,726
happen.

348
00:10:46,726 --> 00:10:48,171
I

349
00:10:48,171 --> 00:10:49,239
m a volunteer here at Rose

350
00:10:49,239 --> 00:10:49,639
Haven Heritage Garden. I

351
00:10:49,639 --> 00:10:50,907
m also

352
00:10:50,907 --> 00:10:53,243
on the board for the Temecula

353
00:10:53,243 --> 00:10:55,460
Valley Rose society, and it

354
00:10:55,460 --> 00:10:56,414
means I get to be hands on in

355
00:10:56,414 --> 00:10:57,548
the garden as much as I like.

356
00:10:57,548 --> 00:11:00,351
So by being part of the Rose

357
00:11:00,351 --> 00:11:01,652
Haven Committee, we understand

358
00:11:01,652 --> 00:11:03,221
each of the areas of the garden

359
00:11:03,221 --> 00:11:04,522
and what needs work and who can

360
00:11:04,522 --> 00:11:04,856
come and volunteer. And it

361
00:11:04,856 --> 00:11:05,923
s

362
00:11:05,923 --> 00:11:06,900
just a learning process too.

363
00:11:06,900 --> 00:11:08,900
It

364
00:11:08,693 --> 00:11:10,227
s a lot of fun to learn. You

365
00:11:10,227 --> 00:11:12,230
know, to see the joy that

366
00:11:12,230 --> 00:11:15,167
people have when they come here

367
00:11:15,167 --> 00:11:16,601
overflowing with emotion and

368
00:11:16,601 --> 00:11:17,969
how beautiful it is. They thank

369
00:11:17,969 --> 00:11:18,170
us for all the work that we do.

370
00:11:18,170 --> 00:11:19,404
So it

371
00:11:19,404 --> 00:11:21,600
s just we see how much

372
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,374
people enjoy it. Such a zen

373
00:11:22,374 --> 00:11:23,308
full experience. You just sit

374
00:11:23,308 --> 00:11:24,743
there and see all the little

375
00:11:24,743 --> 00:11:25,610
critters that are out here. We

376
00:11:25,610 --> 00:11:25,781
can hear the fountain. If

377
00:11:25,781 --> 00:11:26,411
you

378
00:11:26,411 --> 00:11:26,778
re working in certain

379
00:11:26,778 --> 00:11:27,245
parts, you

380
00:11:27,245 --> 00:11:27,879
re just out in

381
00:11:27,879 --> 00:11:28,146
nature. Everything that

382
00:11:28,146 --> 00:11:29,215
s in

383
00:11:29,215 --> 00:11:29,382
your head just goes away and

384
00:11:29,382 --> 00:11:30,820
you

385
00:11:30,820 --> 00:11:30,249
re just focused on what

386
00:11:30,249 --> 00:11:32,249
s

387
00:11:32,885 --> 00:11:35,285
in front of you.

388
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,824
This is truly a garden that is

389
00:11:38,824 --> 00:11:40,693
here for our area and serves a

390
00:11:40,693 --> 00:11:41,927
great purpose to not only our

391
00:11:41,927 --> 00:11:43,529
whole garden, but all the

392
00:11:43,529 --> 00:11:45,929
gardens around us. The

393
00:11:45,932 --> 00:11:48,332
pollinator garden was developed

394
00:11:50,604 --> 00:11:53,340
in 2024 with the global message

395
00:11:53,340 --> 00:11:56,420
of climate change and caring

396
00:11:56,420 --> 00:11:58,110
for the Earth. As an overall,

397
00:11:58,110 --> 00:12:00,113
you know, having all native

398
00:12:00,113 --> 00:12:02,113
Southern California plants

399
00:12:02,282 --> 00:12:04,885
planted in this garden, that is

400
00:12:04,885 --> 00:12:06,253
what attracts the native

401
00:12:06,253 --> 00:12:08,253
Southern California

402
00:12:08,689 --> 00:12:10,257
pollinators. Our bees that are

403
00:12:10,257 --> 00:12:12,590
native to Southern California

404
00:12:12,590 --> 00:12:12,626
are mason bees. They

405
00:12:12,626 --> 00:12:14,626
re great

406
00:12:15,129 --> 00:12:17,970
pollinators. The type of

407
00:12:17,970 --> 00:12:19,433
habitat that we have created

408
00:12:19,433 --> 00:12:22,103
for them with tubes allow them

409
00:12:22,103 --> 00:12:25,103
to reproduce and pollinate our

410
00:12:27,308 --> 00:12:27,742
plants.

411
00:12:27,742 --> 00:12:29,742
But it wasn

412
00:12:29,978 --> 00:12:32,514
t until I had a

413
00:12:32,514 --> 00:12:35,830
health issue that took me to

414
00:12:35,830 --> 00:12:37,151
the hospital nearby. I would

415
00:12:37,151 --> 00:12:39,855
stop here at the garden on the

416
00:12:39,855 --> 00:12:41,657
way home from the hospital,

417
00:12:41,657 --> 00:12:44,193
just to catch my breath,

418
00:12:44,193 --> 00:12:46,193
meditate, reflect. Just

419
00:12:46,228 --> 00:12:48,628
enjoying the peacefulness of

420
00:12:49,665 --> 00:12:52,134
this garden. I would meet the

421
00:12:52,134 --> 00:12:53,769
people who were volunteering

422
00:12:53,769 --> 00:12:55,905
here and decided to get

423
00:12:55,905 --> 00:12:58,740
involved. So I encourage other

424
00:12:58,740 --> 00:13:00,310
people if they have time or

425
00:13:00,310 --> 00:13:01,978
inclination to volunteer. We

426
00:13:01,978 --> 00:13:04,978
certainly could use your help

427
00:13:05,381 --> 00:13:06,515
here in the garden.

428
00:13:06,515 --> 00:13:07,490
People take pictures of

429
00:13:07,490 --> 00:13:07,750
flowers, but it

430
00:13:07,750 --> 00:13:09,786
s better to be

431
00:13:09,786 --> 00:13:11,200
with the flowers. They have the

432
00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:11,220
flower right in front of you.

433
00:13:11,220 --> 00:13:13,156
That

434
00:13:13,156 --> 00:13:13,356
s more exciting. You know,

435
00:13:13,356 --> 00:13:14,391
that

436
00:13:14,391 --> 00:13:16,226
s what an artist does, is

437
00:13:16,226 --> 00:13:18,228
engage with nature. And he was

438
00:13:18,228 --> 00:13:20,631
like, when you really stare up

439
00:13:20,631 --> 00:13:23,500
and just study the contours of

440
00:13:23,500 --> 00:13:23,667
a plant or whatever subject is,

441
00:13:23,667 --> 00:13:25,667
you

442
00:13:31,410 --> 00:13:33,211
re touching it in a way.

443
00:13:33,211 --> 00:13:35,213
The American Rose society,

444
00:13:35,213 --> 00:13:37,148
which our local society is a

445
00:13:37,148 --> 00:13:40,510
part of, is a member of the

446
00:13:40,510 --> 00:13:42,451
World Federation Rose society

447
00:13:42,453 --> 00:13:45,356
at their conference every three

448
00:13:45,356 --> 00:13:47,224
years, there are inducted

449
00:13:47,224 --> 00:13:47,825
into the Hall of Fame. The

450
00:13:47,825 --> 00:13:49,294
reason they

451
00:13:49,294 --> 00:13:51,694
re inducted is that

452
00:13:51,830 --> 00:13:54,990
the roses perform around the

453
00:13:54,990 --> 00:13:56,340
world. If you see a rose here

454
00:13:56,340 --> 00:13:58,870
in our Hall of Fame, you will

455
00:13:58,870 --> 00:14:00,705
know that it is a rose that you

456
00:14:00,705 --> 00:14:03,508
can put it in your own garden

457
00:14:03,508 --> 00:14:03,675
and it will perform well. And

458
00:14:03,675 --> 00:14:05,675
we

459
00:14:06,780 --> 00:14:08,981
re not just roses. We have

460
00:14:08,981 --> 00:14:11,381
so many different environments

461
00:14:12,952 --> 00:14:14,553
within the entire rose garden.

462
00:14:14,553 --> 00:14:16,755
So if you want to see what

463
00:14:16,755 --> 00:14:19,858
plants that grow well in this

464
00:14:19,858 --> 00:14:22,858
community, Rose Haven is worth

465
00:14:31,504 --> 00:14:32,305
your time to come and visit.

466
00:14:32,305 --> 00:14:33,720
It provides.

467
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,341
A place for people.

468
00:14:35,341 --> 00:14:38,178
To come and sit and listen to

469
00:14:38,178 --> 00:14:39,679
the water fall. And reflect.

470
00:14:39,679 --> 00:14:39,913
In an urban environment, it

471
00:14:39,913 --> 00:14:40,113
s

472
00:14:40,113 --> 00:14:40,280
hard.

473
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:41,715
To.

474
00:14:41,715 --> 00:14:43,550
Find a place like this.

475
00:14:43,550 --> 00:14:45,950
It was started by.

476
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:47,488
A group of. Rose enthusiasts

477
00:14:47,488 --> 00:14:49,923
and they were gifted the

478
00:14:49,923 --> 00:14:50,791
opportunity to plant roses

479
00:14:50,791 --> 00:14:51,358
here, and they

480
00:14:51,358 --> 00:14:52,920
ve turned it

481
00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:52,993
into what you

482
00:14:52,993 --> 00:14:55,393

forward to the many things

518
00:15:56,260 --> 00:15:56,760
we

519
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,361
re going to be doing with

00:15:58,361 --> 00:16:00,230
the city and the year ahead,

521
00:16:00,230 --> 00:16:03,200
including our summer camps for

522
00:16:03,200 --> 00:16:06,690
youth. Uh, first time that the

523
00:16:06,690 --> 00:16:08,606
program of Temecula is offering

524
00:16:08,606 --> 00:16:10,740
youth garden camps. So put in a

525
00:16:10,740 --> 00:16:11,642
plug for that as well.

526
00:16:11,642 --> 00:16:13,310
Thank you, thank you. If I can

527
00:16:13,310 --> 00:16:13,511
ask one last question, if

528
00:16:13,511 --> 00:16:15,511
there

529
00:16:15,546 --> 00:16:17,948

00:16:17,948 --> 00:16:19,216
your organization needs, what

531
00:16:19,216 --> 00:16:21,616
does that look like?

532
00:16:22,787 --> 00:16:25,187
Well, um, donors. Okay.

533
00:16:26,791 --> 00:16:27,359
Volunteers, memrs.

534
00:16:27,359 --> 00:16:28,994
Love that.

535
00:16:28,994 --> 00:16:30,996
Those are our three buckets of,

536
00:16:30,996 --> 00:16:33,665
you know, of interest. But

537
00:16:33,665 --> 00:16:35,366
being totally, um, volunteer

538
00:16:35,366 --> 00:16:36,634
run and donation funded and

539
00:16:36,634 --> 00:16:37,836
going into our 35th

540
00:16:37,836 --> 00:16:38,603
anniversary, that

541
00:16:38,603 --> 00:16:40,438
s what we

542
00:16:40,438 --> 00:16:42,874
need. We need, um, corporate

543
00:16:42,874 --> 00:16:45,274
and individual sponsorship and

544
00:16:45,611 --> 00:16:47,112
donation support and volunteers

545
00:16:47,112 --> 00:16:49,515
to help us both in the garden

546
00:16:49,515 --> 00:16:51,515
and organizationally. Because

547
00:16:51,517 --> 00:16:53,885
as you can imagine, and as you

548
00:16:53,885 --> 00:16:57,323
can see in the legacy video,

549
00:16:57,323 --> 00:16:59,358
um, those who I call the OGs,

550
00:16:59,358 --> 00:16:59,524
the original gardeners, we

551
00:16:59,524 --> 00:17:00,860
re

552
00:17:00,860 --> 00:17:02,896
getting a little older. We need

553
00:17:02,896 --> 00:17:04,564
a new wave of talent coming in

554
00:17:04,564 --> 00:17:06,365
from a volunteer standpoint.

555
00:17:06,365 --> 00:17:07,233
So I love that. Thank you.

556
00:17:07,233 --> 00:17:08,301

00:17:23,684 --> 00:17:24,651

Oh, yeah. Even if someone was

And thank you for your hard

00:25:10,704 --> 00:25:11,400
our presentations. Is that

809
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:11,905
correct, ma

810
00:25:11,905 --> 00:25:13,907
am? Thank you for

00:25:16,176 --> 00:25:18,545
commissions, which we have no

814
00:25:18,545 --> 00:25:20,130
reports on. Next one is our

815
00:25:20,130 --> 00:25:22,148
amazing public safety report

816
00:25:22,148 --> 00:25:22,382
done by the County of Riverside

817
00:25:22,382 --> 00:25:23,984

Amazing indeed, ma

821
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:28,520

822
00:25:28,989 --> 00:25:30,391
you. Uh, mayor Alexandria

823
00:25:30,391 --> 00:25:31,192
council, city staff members of

00:25:31,192 --> 00:25:31,358

00:25:33,294 --> 00:25:34,395
s a pleasure to be with you.

827
00:25:34,395 --> 00:25:35,596
Next slide please. I

00:25:37,970 --> 00:25:37,665

830
00:25:37,665 --> 00:25:37,965
some information I

831
00:25:37,965 --> 00:25:38,799
m going to

832
00:25:38,799 --> 00:25:42,399
share with you about our core

833
00:25:42,403 --> 00:25:44,171
team. Um, here we have a slide

834
00:25:44,171 --> 00:25:46,675
for first slide. Total calls

835
00:25:46,675 --> 00:25:49,675
for service for MAY 2026. Uh,

836
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:53,882
came in 5857 calls graph

837
00:25:53,882 --> 00:25:55,216
beneath that MAY calls for

838
00:25:55,216 --> 00:25:57,519
service priorities one through

839
00:25:57,519 --> 00:25:59,554
four. Uh, priority one calls

840
00:25:59,554 --> 00:26:01,523
that came in at 73. Priority to

841
00:26:01,523 --> 00:26:03,923
that just over 2000 priority

842
00:26:04,159 --> 00:26:06,559
threes 2480. And priority four

843
00:26:06,895 --> 00:26:09,231
is at 1240. Next slide please.

844
00:26:09,231 --> 00:26:10,666
Again a breakdown um of our

845
00:26:10,666 --> 00:26:12,267
priority calls one through four

846
00:26:12,267 --> 00:26:13,535
and the pie chart. And in the

847
00:26:13,535 --> 00:26:14,870
upper right corner you see that

848
00:26:14,870 --> 00:26:17,270
the average response times

849
00:26:17,306 --> 00:26:18,841
priority one calls list a

850
00:26:18,841 --> 00:26:20,109
little over six minutes. Uh,

851
00:26:20,109 --> 00:26:22,345
response time to our priority

852
00:26:22,345 --> 00:26:24,745
one calls, 11 minutes to

853
00:26:24,948 --> 00:26:26,616
priority two, 16 and 21 to our

854
00:26:26,616 --> 00:26:27,250
threes and fours. Nothing

855
00:26:27,250 --> 00:26:27,684
surprising there. It

856
00:26:27,684 --> 00:26:29,684
s about

857
00:26:29,752 --> 00:26:31,754
what we average. Next slide

858
00:26:31,754 --> 00:26:32,755
please. So I have some stats up

859
00:26:32,755 --> 00:26:34,190
there for you about our core

860
00:26:34,190 --> 00:26:34,757
team. And I have a little, um,

861
00:26:34,757 --> 00:26:35,580
information that I

862
00:26:35,580 --> 00:26:37,260
m going to

863
00:26:37,260 --> 00:26:39,620
share with you about that. Um,

864
00:26:39,620 --> 00:26:41,698
and see the stats for JANUARY

865
00:26:41,698 --> 00:26:43,200
through MAY of 2026. Area

866
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:44,801
checks, camp checks. And so

867
00:26:44,801 --> 00:26:45,869
down the left side there. So

868
00:26:45,869 --> 00:26:47,400
our core team, which operates

869
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:47,204
from the Old Town Sheriff

870
00:26:47,204 --> 00:26:48,338
s

871
00:26:48,338 --> 00:26:49,506
substation, focuses on

872
00:26:49,506 --> 00:26:50,841
improving quality of life

873
00:26:50,841 --> 00:26:52,475
throughout the city by

874
00:26:52,475 --> 00:26:53,977
combining outreach, enforcement

875
00:26:53,977 --> 00:26:55,913
and problem solving, working

876
00:26:55,913 --> 00:26:57,515
closely with seized swag,

877
00:26:57,515 --> 00:26:59,383
behavioral health professionals

878
00:26:59,383 --> 00:27:00,818
and other community partners.

879
00:27:00,818 --> 00:27:02,420
Core deputies address ongoing

880
00:27:02,420 --> 00:27:03,954
community concerns while

881
00:27:03,954 --> 00:27:05,122
helping connect individuals and

882
00:27:05,122 --> 00:27:07,122
families with available

883
00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:09,827
resources and services. The

884
00:27:09,827 --> 00:27:11,996
statistics displayed on the

885
00:27:11,996 --> 00:27:12,263
screen provide a snapshot of

886
00:27:12,263 --> 00:27:13,398
the team

887
00:27:13,398 --> 00:27:14,266
s activity each month

888
00:27:14,266 --> 00:27:15,433
since the beginning of the

889
00:27:15,433 --> 00:27:16,735
year. While a number of

890
00:27:16,735 --> 00:27:18,603
themselves are important, they

891
00:27:18,603 --> 00:27:21,390
only tell part of the story.

892
00:27:21,390 --> 00:27:22,941
Each outreach attempt a camp

893
00:27:22,941 --> 00:27:24,910
check, a pedestrian contact

894
00:27:24,910 --> 00:27:26,478
represents an opportunity to

895
00:27:26,478 --> 00:27:27,879
engage with individuals in

896
00:27:27,879 --> 00:27:29,481
need, address community

897
00:27:29,481 --> 00:27:30,950
concerns, and connect people

898
00:27:30,950 --> 00:27:32,818
with services that can help

899
00:27:32,818 --> 00:27:34,120
improve their circumstances.

900
00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:35,954
One recent success story

901
00:27:35,954 --> 00:27:37,223
highlights the impact of this

902
00:27:37,223 --> 00:27:38,757
collaborative approach, and

903
00:27:38,757 --> 00:27:40,757
demonstrates how consistent

904
00:27:40,826 --> 00:27:42,826
outreach, enforcement, and

905
00:27:43,620 --> 00:27:45,164
partnership between core Swag

906
00:27:45,164 --> 00:27:47,266
and other service providers can

907
00:27:47,266 --> 00:27:48,902
produce meaningful results. For

908
00:27:48,902 --> 00:27:50,503
years, core deputies and Swag

909
00:27:50,503 --> 00:27:51,938
personnel worked with an

910
00:27:51,938 --> 00:27:53,106
individual who had become well

911
00:27:53,106 --> 00:27:54,808
known throughout the community

912
00:27:54,808 --> 00:27:56,976
due to chronic homelessness,

913
00:27:56,976 --> 00:27:58,545
substance abuse, and repeated

914
00:27:58,545 --> 00:28:00,113
contacts with law enforcement.

915
00:28:00,113 --> 00:28:01,347
Despite numerous outreach

916
00:28:01,347 --> 00:28:03,183
efforts and offers of

917
00:28:03,183 --> 00:28:05,119
assistance, he was often

918
00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:08,119
unwilling or unable to accept

919
00:28:09,123 --> 00:28:11,358
help. Following a recent arrest

920
00:28:11,358 --> 00:28:12,726
and period of incarceration, he

921
00:28:12,726 --> 00:28:15,126
experienced what he described

922
00:28:16,396 --> 00:28:17,498
as, quote, a moment of clarity

923
00:28:17,498 --> 00:28:18,999
and reached out seeking

924
00:28:18,999 --> 00:28:20,467
treatment with the assistance

925
00:28:20,467 --> 00:28:22,370
of swag and community partners.

926
00:28:22,370 --> 00:28:24,105
He was successfully connected

927
00:28:24,105 --> 00:28:25,707
to a sobering center and later

928
00:28:25,707 --> 00:28:27,208
transferred into a treatment

929
00:28:27,208 --> 00:28:29,100
program. Perhaps most

930
00:28:29,100 --> 00:28:30,512
importantly, he shared that the

931
00:28:30,512 --> 00:28:31,846
consistent encouragement and

932
00:28:31,846 --> 00:28:33,548
support he received from core

933
00:28:33,548 --> 00:28:35,383
deputies from Swag and city

934
00:28:35,383 --> 00:28:37,352
staff over the years left a

935
00:28:37,352 --> 00:28:38,919
lasting impression on him, even

936
00:28:38,919 --> 00:28:40,322
during times when he was not

937
00:28:40,322 --> 00:28:42,157
receptive to help. He

938
00:28:42,157 --> 00:28:43,792
specifically credited those

939
00:28:43,792 --> 00:28:45,627
efforts as one of the reasons

940
00:28:45,627 --> 00:28:47,830
he ultimately chose to begin

941
00:28:47,830 --> 00:28:49,197
his recovery journey. While

942
00:28:49,197 --> 00:28:50,566
every situation is unique, the

943
00:28:50,566 --> 00:28:51,867
story demonstrates the value of

944
00:28:51,867 --> 00:28:53,568
Temecula collaborative approach

945
00:28:53,568 --> 00:28:55,300
to addressing homelessness and

946
00:28:55,300 --> 00:28:55,971
quality of life concerns by

947
00:28:55,971 --> 00:28:57,807
combining outreach,

948
00:28:57,807 --> 00:29:00,207
accountability, and access to

949
00:29:00,209 --> 00:29:01,477
services. Core Swag and other

950
00:29:01,477 --> 00:29:03,146
community partners continue

951
00:29:03,146 --> 00:29:05,114
creating opportunities for

952
00:29:05,114 --> 00:29:06,482
positive change while enhancing

953
00:29:06,482 --> 00:29:09,482
the quality of life throughout

954
00:29:09,786 --> 00:29:10,987
our community. And so, uh, I

955
00:29:10,987 --> 00:29:11,154
would just add that I

956
00:29:11,154 --> 00:29:13,154
m

957
00:29:13,322 --> 00:29:15,292
extremely proud of my core

958
00:29:15,292 --> 00:29:18,261
deputies and the work that all

959
00:29:18,261 --> 00:29:19,996
the city staff does and swag.

960
00:29:19,996 --> 00:29:21,640
Uh, it is not an easy space to

961
00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:21,665
operate in. It

962
00:29:21,665 --> 00:29:22,632
s often

963
00:29:22,632 --> 00:29:24,632
thankless. It

964
00:29:25,235 --> 00:29:26,870
s, um, something

965
00:29:26,870 --> 00:29:28,405
that not everybody can do or

966
00:29:28,405 --> 00:29:29,906
has the ability or patience or

967
00:29:29,906 --> 00:29:33,770
willingness to do. But I think,

968
00:29:33,770 --> 00:29:34,245
again, this example, um,

969
00:29:34,245 --> 00:29:36,147
demonstrates the importance

970
00:29:36,147 --> 00:29:38,316
that we continue this

971
00:29:38,316 --> 00:29:39,550
collaborative effort to address

972
00:29:39,550 --> 00:29:42,550
this issue in our community.

973
00:29:43,421 --> 00:29:45,222
And, um, it certainly is, um,

974
00:29:45,222 --> 00:29:47,910
wonderful to see the success,

975
00:29:47,910 --> 00:29:49,359
the success stories that can

976
00:29:49,359 --> 00:29:50,329
come about when people finally

977
00:29:50,329 --> 00:29:50,483
reach the point where they

978
00:29:50,483 --> 00:29:52,197
re

979
00:29:52,197 --> 00:29:54,666
ready to make a change for

980
00:29:54,666 --> 00:29:55,934
themselves. And so, again, uh,

981
00:29:55,934 --> 00:29:56,168
just a good example of that.

982
00:29:56,168 --> 00:29:57,235
And it

983
00:29:57,235 --> 00:29:58,904
s something that I will

984
00:29:58,904 --> 00:30:00,972
continue to encourage the core

985
00:30:00,972 --> 00:30:02,674
deputies and the city staff to,

986
00:30:02,674 --> 00:30:04,142
to continue to push forward in

987
00:30:04,142 --> 00:30:04,298
that space. So unless there

988
00:30:04,298 --> 00:30:05,710
s

989
00:30:05,710 --> 00:30:07,780
any questions for me, uh, that

990
00:30:07,780 --> 00:30:07,846
will conclude my public safety

991
00:30:07,846 --> 00:30:09,846
report.

992
00:30:10,683 --> 00:30:12,151
Any questions for my colleagues?

993
00:30:12,151 --> 00:30:13,252
No. Okay. You guys are all

994
00:30:13,252 --> 00:30:14,186
doing a great job. Thank you,

995
00:30:14,186 --> 00:30:16,255
thank you. Keep up the great

996
00:30:16,255 --> 00:30:16,475
work. All right. Next we

997
00:30:16,475 --> 00:30:17,322
re

998
00:30:17,322 --> 00:30:19,391
going to move into public

999
00:30:19,391 --> 00:30:21,327
comment, uh, for non-agenda

1000
00:30:21,327 --> 00:30:22,328
items, do we have any public

1001
00:30:22,328 --> 00:30:23,862
comments?

1002
00:30:23,862 --> 00:30:26,132
Yes, MADAM Mayor, we have four

1003
00:30:26,132 --> 00:30:28,168
public comments on non-agenda

1004
00:30:28,168 --> 00:30:29,769
items. There are no other

1005
00:30:29,769 --> 00:30:31,404
public comments on any portion

1006
00:30:31,404 --> 00:30:32,872
of the agenda item. Each

1007
00:30:32,872 --> 00:30:34,440
speaker will be limited to

1008
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:36,442
three minutes pursuant to the

1009
00:30:36,442 --> 00:30:39,450
rules listed on the agenda. The

1010
00:30:39,450 --> 00:30:42,450
first speaker is Susan Witten,

1011
00:30:46,620 --> 00:30:47,721
to be followed by Laura Lamont.

1012
00:30:47,721 --> 00:30:49,623
Spring rose.

1013
00:30:49,623 --> 00:30:50,858
Hi, MISS Susan, good to see

1014
00:30:50,858 --> 00:30:51,291
you.

1015
00:30:51,291 --> 00:30:51,759
Um.

1016
00:30:51,759 --> 00:30:53,759
I just.

1017
00:30:53,894 --> 00:30:56,300
Want to say thank you. And to

1018
00:30:56,300 --> 00:30:57,831
echo what Scott has talked

1019
00:30:57,831 --> 00:30:58,165
about today, after you

1020
00:30:58,165 --> 00:31:00,165
ve seen

1021
00:31:00,268 --> 00:31:01,569
the beautiful, um, video, but

1022
00:31:01,569 --> 00:31:02,971
also the one that you all

1023
00:31:02,971 --> 00:31:04,572
produced for the state of the

1024
00:31:04,572 --> 00:31:06,740
city. I have shared that with

1025
00:31:06,740 --> 00:31:06,274
all of my friends and family.

1026
00:31:06,274 --> 00:31:06,874
They

1027
00:31:06,874 --> 00:31:07,675
re sick of it. It

1028
00:31:07,675 --> 00:31:09,410
s like,

1029
00:31:09,410 --> 00:31:10,878
why? Because it

1030
00:31:10,878 --> 00:31:12,814
s beautiful.

1031
00:31:12,814 --> 00:31:14,115
Um, so we want to just say

1032
00:31:14,115 --> 00:31:14,382
thank you for all the things

1033
00:31:14,382 --> 00:31:15,483
that you

1034
00:31:15,483 --> 00:31:16,451
ve helped us with this

1035
00:31:16,451 --> 00:31:18,353
year as a non-profit

1036
00:31:18,353 --> 00:31:20,556
organization. We started the

1037
00:31:20,556 --> 00:31:22,758
year with a grant for tools

1038
00:31:22,758 --> 00:31:24,159
that enable us to to provide

1039
00:31:24,159 --> 00:31:25,694
the right kinds of tools for

1040
00:31:25,694 --> 00:31:27,429
the right kinds of activities

1041
00:31:27,429 --> 00:31:28,730
throughout the garden, for the

1042
00:31:28,730 --> 00:31:30,632
folks who come for our

1043
00:31:30,632 --> 00:31:32,401
educational classes. And this

1044
00:31:32,401 --> 00:31:33,935
summer, with the science camp,

1045
00:31:33,935 --> 00:31:36,500
all of the kids will have their

1046
00:31:36,500 --> 00:31:37,974
own tools to work with. So it

1047
00:31:37,974 --> 00:31:38,141
is a wonderful project that

1048
00:31:38,141 --> 00:31:39,675
we

1049
00:31:39,675 --> 00:31:42,478
re thankful that we got the

1050
00:31:42,478 --> 00:31:44,800
funding. Um, we also got the

1051
00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:45,281
buckets for the composting,

1052
00:31:45,281 --> 00:31:47,249
which I was here a couple of

1053
00:31:47,249 --> 00:31:49,318
times to get more of them, and

1054
00:31:49,318 --> 00:31:51,320
we had 40 moms and daughters

1055
00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:52,389
who actually donated compost

1056
00:31:52,389 --> 00:31:55,292
throughout the year. So that

1057
00:31:55,292 --> 00:31:56,960
was 930 hours of community

1058
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:58,995
service that they earned by

1059
00:31:58,995 --> 00:32:00,730
bringing compost to our rose

1060
00:32:00,730 --> 00:32:01,998
garden. And we use that in the

1061
00:32:01,998 --> 00:32:04,434
garden, but we also give it out

1062
00:32:04,434 --> 00:32:06,670
to the community as well. And

1063
00:32:06,670 --> 00:32:07,537
then, uh, the last thing was

1064
00:32:07,537 --> 00:32:08,672
the end of the year

1065
00:32:08,672 --> 00:32:10,672
collaboration with the

1066
00:32:10,875 --> 00:32:12,643
Community Services department,

1067
00:32:12,643 --> 00:32:12,910
um, to put on the science camp,

1068
00:32:12,910 --> 00:32:14,278
which we

1069
00:32:14,278 --> 00:32:16,180
re extremely excited

1070
00:32:16,180 --> 00:32:17,915
about. So we have future garden

1071
00:32:17,915 --> 00:32:19,416
scientists within our midst.

1072
00:32:19,416 --> 00:32:19,950
And for all those kids who

1073
00:32:19,950 --> 00:32:21,452
maybe don

1074
00:32:21,452 --> 00:32:22,987
t have a garden, this

1075
00:32:22,987 --> 00:32:24,355
is a wonderful opportunity. So

1076
00:32:24,355 --> 00:32:26,557
we just wanted to say thank you

1077
00:32:26,557 --> 00:32:27,759
and come and smell the roses.

1078
00:32:27,759 --> 00:32:28,560
All right. Thank you Susan.

1079
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:32,160
Always great to see you, ma

1080
00:32:32,731 --> 00:32:34,731
am.

1081
00:32:35,233 --> 00:32:38,136
Next up is Laura Lamont, to be

1082
00:32:38,136 --> 00:32:39,170
followed by Steven Gerrard.

1083
00:32:39,170 --> 00:32:41,339
How are you, Laurel.

1084
00:32:41,339 --> 00:32:41,773
Hi.

1085
00:32:41,773 --> 00:32:42,240
All right. I

1086
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:43,675
m going to try

1087
00:32:43,675 --> 00:32:44,677
something a little different.

1088
00:32:44,677 --> 00:32:46,712
Instead of talking about

1089
00:32:46,712 --> 00:32:47,413
warehouse at Creekside, let

1090
00:32:47,413 --> 00:32:49,413
s

1091
00:32:53,850 --> 00:32:56,850
talk about your local workforce.

1092
00:32:56,588 --> 00:32:59,191
Where in Temecula can a full

1093
00:32:59,191 --> 00:33:02,191
time grocery worker afford to

1094
00:33:02,729 --> 00:33:05,129
live? Without it being

1095
00:33:05,398 --> 00:33:06,599
combative, I just challenge

1096
00:33:06,599 --> 00:33:08,100
every single one of you to go

1097
00:33:08,100 --> 00:33:11,100
back home tonight and really

1098
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,405
give that some thought. Have

1099
00:33:12,405 --> 00:33:12,559
that conversation when they

1100
00:33:12,559 --> 00:33:14,559
re

1101
00:33:16,276 --> 00:33:16,442
bagging your groceries because

1102
00:33:16,442 --> 00:33:18,440
it

1103
00:33:18,440 --> 00:33:18,211
s not transitional work.

1104
00:33:18,211 --> 00:33:20,211
It

1105
00:33:20,881 --> 00:33:23,881
s full time employment and

1106
00:33:25,850 --> 00:33:26,520
the local workforce is here to

1107
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,920
be accessible to the

1108
00:33:29,456 --> 00:33:31,856
homeowners. But without a

1109
00:33:32,359 --> 00:33:32,532
diversity of housing stock, we

1110
00:33:32,532 --> 00:33:34,532
don

1111
00:33:35,562 --> 00:33:38,599
t have room or the space

1112
00:33:38,599 --> 00:33:39,434
for the workforce. We

1113
00:33:39,434 --> 00:33:41,434
ve got to

1114
00:33:44,806 --> 00:33:47,775
create a solution to this. My

1115
00:33:47,775 --> 00:33:48,576
son turned 21st JUNE first and

1116
00:33:48,576 --> 00:33:49,760
I apologize. I couldn

1117
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:50,378
t be here

1118
00:33:50,378 --> 00:33:52,380
at that last meeting. That

1119
00:33:52,380 --> 00:33:53,915
massive power line meeting. I

1120
00:33:53,915 --> 00:33:56,915
was at a therapy appointment

1121
00:33:58,253 --> 00:34:01,890
with my son because a single

1122
00:34:01,890 --> 00:34:04,526
mom raising a boy without a

1123
00:34:04,526 --> 00:34:07,526
grandparent or a father figure,

1124
00:34:08,964 --> 00:34:10,799
just myself. Somebody who chose

1125
00:34:10,799 --> 00:34:13,636
to produce a child and bring a

1126
00:34:13,636 --> 00:34:13,836
child into the world. I didn

1127
00:34:13,836 --> 00:34:15,836
t

1128
00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:18,808
choose abortion. I have been

1129
00:34:18,808 --> 00:34:20,809
housing insecure for his entire

1130
00:34:20,809 --> 00:34:24,409
life, but I have been fully

1131
00:34:27,383 --> 00:34:30,383
employed my entire life. My

1132
00:34:30,620 --> 00:34:32,550
last two paychecks, 1514

1133
00:34:32,550 --> 00:34:33,289
hundred, my rent in an

1134
00:34:33,289 --> 00:34:35,289
affordable apartment in

1135
00:34:38,828 --> 00:34:39,396
Temecula, $2,250. That

1136
00:34:39,396 --> 00:34:41,396
s not

1137
00:34:43,566 --> 00:34:45,566
affordable. That

1138
00:34:46,302 --> 00:34:46,503
s not doable.

1139
00:34:46,503 --> 00:34:48,503
That

1140
00:34:48,639 --> 00:34:51,208
s more expensive than some

1141
00:34:51,208 --> 00:34:53,608
homeowners mortgages in this

1142
00:34:59,483 --> 00:35:01,785
city. I am asking you, as my

1143
00:35:01,785 --> 00:35:02,520
representatives, as this

1144
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,520
community

1145
00:35:04,455 --> 00:35:06,455
s representatives, to

1146
00:35:08,793 --> 00:35:09,527
have this dialogue. Stu, I

1147
00:35:09,527 --> 00:35:10,862
m. I

1148
00:35:10,862 --> 00:35:12,597
keep looking at you because I,

1149
00:35:12,597 --> 00:35:15,366
I, I just know that you have

1150
00:35:15,366 --> 00:35:16,734
this really good heart, and you

1151
00:35:16,734 --> 00:35:18,734
always kind of

1152
00:35:20,971 --> 00:35:23,800
self-deprecating, but you are a

1153
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,444
numbers guy. You are a data

1154
00:35:25,444 --> 00:35:26,545
guy. Brendon. You already know

1155
00:35:26,545 --> 00:35:28,247
I like you and I value you and

1156
00:35:28,247 --> 00:35:29,648
I respect you and Matt Ron as

1157
00:35:29,648 --> 00:35:29,802
well. The other two, I don

1158
00:35:29,802 --> 00:35:31,802
t

1159
00:35:32,718 --> 00:35:32,885
know. But just look at this.

1160
00:35:32,885 --> 00:35:34,653
Let

1161
00:35:34,653 --> 00:35:34,987
s have this dialogue. It

1162
00:35:34,987 --> 00:35:36,688
s

1163
00:35:36,688 --> 00:35:39,224
not an impractical dialogue to

1164
00:35:39,224 --> 00:35:40,660
have. Thank you.

1165
00:35:40,660 --> 00:35:42,695
Thank you so much for your

1166
00:35:42,695 --> 00:35:44,695
comments.

1167
00:35:45,131 --> 00:35:48,131
The next speaker is Steven

1168
00:35:48,568 --> 00:35:49,836
Gerrard. Sadowski to be

1169
00:35:49,836 --> 00:35:51,137
followed by our last speaker,

1170
00:35:51,137 --> 00:35:53,137
Isabelle.

1171
00:35:57,611 --> 00:35:59,611
Hello, Steven.

1172
00:36:04,751 --> 00:36:06,751
Looking good.

1173
00:36:06,987 --> 00:36:09,387

m delighted to be back

in your wonderful city of

1179
00:36:18,366 --> 00:36:21,469
Temecula and I love roses. I

1180
00:36:21,469 --> 00:36:21,836
love gardening, uh, a lot, lot,

1181
00:36:21,836 --> 00:36:22,904
lot that

1182
00:36:22,904 --> 00:36:25,640
s going on here. Very

1183
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:26,474
professional city council. Uh,

1184
00:36:26,474 --> 00:36:26,841
for those of you who don

1185
00:36:26,841 --> 00:36:28,841
t know

1186
00:36:29,377 --> 00:36:30,878
it, I traveled the country, uh,

1187
00:36:30,878 --> 00:36:33,148
amplifying a new pro-life

1188
00:36:33,148 --> 00:36:35,148
possibility. That pro-life

1189
00:36:36,352 --> 00:36:38,253
possibility is called usa pre

1190
00:36:38,253 --> 00:36:38,687
born personhood cities. I

1191
00:36:38,687 --> 00:36:40,288
ve

1192
00:36:40,288 --> 00:36:42,390
left a wonderful Bible bookmark

1193
00:36:42,390 --> 00:36:45,527
with your staff for all of you.

1194
00:36:45,527 --> 00:36:49,127
Uh, the mayor and council. Uh,

1195
00:36:49,532 --> 00:36:50,199
step one of the. Let

1196
00:36:50,199 --> 00:36:51,967
s retract

1197
00:36:51,967 --> 00:36:54,270
a little bit. I was able to

1198
00:36:54,270 --> 00:36:56,438
make it to your California

1199
00:36:56,438 --> 00:36:58,841
MARCH for life. Uh, in

1200
00:36:58,841 --> 00:37:00,776
Sacramento in mid MARCH. And I

1201
00:37:00,776 --> 00:37:02,945
can attest that about 4000

1202
00:37:02,945 --> 00:37:04,346
citizens showed up and were

1203
00:37:04,346 --> 00:37:06,582
very exuberant about the

1204
00:37:06,582 --> 00:37:06,816
sanctity of life. And there

1205
00:37:06,816 --> 00:37:08,151
s

1206
00:37:08,151 --> 00:37:10,620
some pictures right there which

1207
00:37:10,620 --> 00:37:11,287
justify that. And I

1208
00:37:11,287 --> 00:37:12,822
m delighted

1209
00:37:12,822 --> 00:37:14,524
to let you know that they

1210
00:37:14,524 --> 00:37:17,524
support new usa pre born

1211
00:37:17,727 --> 00:37:19,129
personhood cities. My goal is

1212
00:37:19,129 --> 00:37:20,563
to get you to move in the new

1213
00:37:20,563 --> 00:37:20,863
direction. I think you

1214
00:37:20,863 --> 00:37:22,863
ll be

1215
00:37:23,990 --> 00:37:24,301
interested in it. We can do it

1216
00:37:24,301 --> 00:37:27,204
because of the us Supreme

1217
00:37:27,204 --> 00:37:29,600
Court. Dobbs decision. Step one

1218
00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,276
is to pass a pre born

1219
00:37:32,276 --> 00:37:32,976
personhood resolution. That

1220
00:37:32,976 --> 00:37:34,144
s

1221
00:37:34,144 --> 00:37:34,912
step one. And I

1222
00:37:34,912 --> 00:37:36,346
m providing you

1223
00:37:36,346 --> 00:37:39,182
a copy of one of those

1224
00:37:39,182 --> 00:37:41,582
resolutions. Step two the

1225
00:37:41,786 --> 00:37:44,786
citizens now have the ability

1226
00:37:44,989 --> 00:37:46,657
to actually vote in pre born

1227
00:37:46,657 --> 00:37:47,926
personhood language into a

1228
00:37:47,926 --> 00:37:49,193
charter. Now you

1229
00:37:49,193 --> 00:37:51,563
re a new city.

1230
00:37:51,563 --> 00:37:53,932
I think you started in 1989. As

1231
00:37:53,932 --> 00:37:55,767
your symbol indicates. So you

1232
00:37:55,767 --> 00:37:58,200
would go ahead and form a

1233
00:37:58,200 --> 00:37:59,772
charter commission in the

1234
00:37:59,772 --> 00:38:02,541
future and you would establish

1235
00:38:02,541 --> 00:38:03,942
your city charter, and then you

1236
00:38:03,942 --> 00:38:05,811
would bring me in. I have the

1237
00:38:05,811 --> 00:38:07,946
preamble covenant language for

1238
00:38:07,946 --> 00:38:09,247
the charter. I can tell you

1239
00:38:09,247 --> 00:38:10,782
that that language has already

1240
00:38:10,782 --> 00:38:10,982
been published in newspapers.

1241
00:38:10,982 --> 00:38:12,351
There

1242
00:38:12,351 --> 00:38:14,753
s an example of one of my

1243
00:38:14,753 --> 00:38:17,423
efforts in the United States.

1244
00:38:17,423 --> 00:38:18,991
By doing so, you will become on

1245
00:38:18,991 --> 00:38:21,260
the East Coast. We call it safe

1246
00:38:21,260 --> 00:38:22,661
cities. But actually right here

1247
00:38:22,661 --> 00:38:25,531
I prefer that you just call it

1248
00:38:25,531 --> 00:38:27,990
a safe, pre born personhood

1249
00:38:27,990 --> 00:38:29,335
city. This is a new direction

1250
00:38:29,335 --> 00:38:31,503
for pro-life in America. My

1251
00:38:31,503 --> 00:38:33,372
goal is to transform the

1252
00:38:33,372 --> 00:38:34,808
culture of death into the

1253
00:38:34,808 --> 00:38:36,276
sanctity of life. We can do

1254
00:38:36,276 --> 00:38:38,344
that because of the us Supreme

1255
00:38:38,344 --> 00:38:38,912
Court. Dobbs decision. I

1256
00:38:38,912 --> 00:38:40,147
d like

1257
00:38:40,147 --> 00:38:43,783
to end with a song on the

1258
00:38:43,783 --> 00:38:46,783
Bible. Bookmark by Ann Delaney,

1259
00:38:46,887 --> 00:38:48,355
Menlo Park cancer survivor who

1260
00:38:48,355 --> 00:38:50,355
let the bleeding.

1261
00:38:52,126 --> 00:38:55,126
Hearts, who let the beating

1262
00:38:56,897 --> 00:38:58,833
heart show you there is life in

1263
00:38:58,833 --> 00:39:00,534
the womb.

1264
00:39:00,534 --> 00:39:01,680
GOD bless you. Email me and

1265
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:01,836
text me. I

1266
00:39:01,836 --> 00:39:03,103
ll be happy to give

1267
00:39:03,103 --> 00:39:04,104
you all the education. Thank

1268
00:39:04,104 --> 00:39:05,139
you for all your love of the

1269
00:39:05,139 --> 00:39:06,340
city.

1270
00:39:06,340 --> 00:39:08,275
Thank you sir for coming.

1271
00:39:08,275 --> 00:39:11,875
In. And the last speaker is

1272
00:39:25,260 --> 00:39:26,461
Isabel.

1273
00:39:26,461 --> 00:39:28,461
Afternoon, Isabel.

1274
00:39:28,931 --> 00:39:29,131
Hello, my name is Isabel. I

1275
00:39:29,131 --> 00:39:31,131
didn

1276
00:39:31,667 --> 00:39:33,235
t prepare a speech today

1277
00:39:33,235 --> 00:39:34,336
for the Rose Haven Garden. I

1278
00:39:34,336 --> 00:39:34,517
just want you to know if you

1279
00:39:34,517 --> 00:39:36,472
re

1280
00:39:36,472 --> 00:39:38,374
still here. Um, the orange and

1281
00:39:38,374 --> 00:39:39,408
black koi fish has a hook in

1282
00:39:39,408 --> 00:39:40,576
its mouth. I told one of the

1283
00:39:40,576 --> 00:39:40,943
volunteers, but it

1284
00:39:40,943 --> 00:39:41,977
s still

1285
00:39:41,977 --> 00:39:43,345
there. When I went back the

1286
00:39:43,345 --> 00:39:44,547
next day. You

1287
00:39:44,547 --> 00:39:44,714
re welcome. Um,

1288
00:39:44,714 --> 00:39:46,149
I

1289
00:39:46,149 --> 00:39:48,251
ve been homeless 18 months,

1290
00:39:48,251 --> 00:39:50,887
going on 19. I have actually

1291
00:39:50,887 --> 00:39:51,854
asked for help. And as someone

1292
00:39:51,854 --> 00:39:53,690
who has experienced

1293
00:39:53,690 --> 00:39:55,258
homelessness firsthand, I have

1294
00:39:55,258 --> 00:39:57,930
witnessed all the brokenness in

1295
00:39:57,930 --> 00:39:57,293
the system. And I think it

1296
00:39:57,293 --> 00:39:58,895
s

1297
00:39:58,895 --> 00:40:00,463
important not to just focus on

1298
00:40:00,463 --> 00:40:02,500
the positive, because in doing

1299
00:40:02,500 --> 00:40:03,834
so, you ignore the suffering

1300
00:40:03,834 --> 00:40:05,969
that people actually have to

1301
00:40:05,969 --> 00:40:07,638
endure. And it does not bring

1302
00:40:07,638 --> 00:40:10,380
effective solutions to people

1303
00:40:10,140 --> 00:40:10,774
who have to try to navigate a

1304
00:40:10,774 --> 00:40:11,575
system they don

1305
00:40:11,575 --> 00:40:13,575
t know much

1306
00:40:15,812 --> 00:40:17,714
about. I overheard a woman who

1307
00:40:17,714 --> 00:40:19,550
was leaving a dv domestic

1308
00:40:19,550 --> 00:40:20,840
violence situation saying that

1309
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:20,752
the shelter didn

1310
00:40:20,752 --> 00:40:22,752
t open until

1311
00:40:23,321 --> 00:40:23,521
Monday, and it was a Friday.

1312
00:40:23,521 --> 00:40:24,822
There

1313
00:40:24,822 --> 00:40:26,257
s been a lot of different

1314
00:40:26,257 --> 00:40:26,457
encounters, stories that I

1315
00:40:26,457 --> 00:40:27,759
ve

1316
00:40:27,759 --> 00:40:28,759
heard, and I understand people

1317
00:40:28,759 --> 00:40:29,994
can turn their lives around,

1318
00:40:29,994 --> 00:40:31,696
but when the odds are stacked

1319
00:40:31,696 --> 00:40:34,696
against them and they have

1320
00:40:34,799 --> 00:40:36,266
asked for help repeatedly and

1321
00:40:36,266 --> 00:40:38,236
their personal autonomy is

1322
00:40:38,236 --> 00:40:41,139
something that is in my

1323
00:40:41,139 --> 00:40:42,974
particular circumstances,

1324
00:40:42,974 --> 00:40:45,277
seemingly wanting to be taken

1325
00:40:45,277 --> 00:40:45,677
away from me. I don

1326
00:40:45,677 --> 00:40:45,877
t think

1327
00:40:45,877 --> 00:40:47,345
that

1328
00:40:47,345 --> 00:40:49,114
s acceptable. We do have a

1329
00:40:49,114 --> 00:40:51,149
us Constitution where I know we

1330
00:40:51,149 --> 00:40:52,717
have rights. We have civil

1331
00:40:52,717 --> 00:40:54,654
rights as well as freedom of

1332
00:40:54,654 --> 00:40:56,355
religion. I have peacefully

1333
00:40:56,355 --> 00:40:57,890
protested outside of the city

1334
00:40:57,890 --> 00:40:59,659
hall and law enforcement

1335
00:40:59,659 --> 00:41:01,794
officers had told me that the

1336
00:41:01,794 --> 00:41:03,620
city told me that they wanted

1337
00:41:03,620 --> 00:41:04,463
me off their property, even

1338
00:41:04,463 --> 00:41:05,331
though it was public property,

1339
00:41:05,331 --> 00:41:08,301
and I have a right to

1340
00:41:08,301 --> 00:41:08,901
peacefully protest. And it just

1341
00:41:08,901 --> 00:41:09,868
seems that it

1342
00:41:09,868 --> 00:41:11,537
s okay that if a

1343
00:41:11,537 --> 00:41:12,172
human being suffers in silence,

1344
00:41:12,172 --> 00:41:14,572
so long as it

1345
00:41:14,641 --> 00:41:17,410
s not in your

1346
00:41:17,410 --> 00:41:18,578
face where people are aware of

1347
00:41:18,578 --> 00:41:19,120
it. And I don

1348
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:19,213
t think that

1349
00:41:19,213 --> 00:41:20,447
s

1350
00:41:20,447 --> 00:41:20,947
okay. And I don

1351
00:41:20,947 --> 00:41:21,147
t think that

1352
00:41:21,147 --> 00:41:22,582
s

1353
00:41:22,582 --> 00:41:23,549
excusable. And I

1354
00:41:23,549 --> 00:41:25,318
m not here to

1355
00:41:25,318 --> 00:41:28,388
a place blame. But just to

1356
00:41:28,388 --> 00:41:29,123
point out how inhumane it is

1357
00:41:29,123 --> 00:41:30,570
and how there

1358
00:41:30,570 --> 00:41:32,570
s different ways

1359
00:41:32,693 --> 00:41:34,795
of handling things. I overheard

1360
00:41:34,795 --> 00:41:36,463
the officer, Mark, expressing

1361
00:41:36,463 --> 00:41:37,498
how he helps individuals who go

1362
00:41:37,498 --> 00:41:38,132
through homelessness and

1363
00:41:38,132 --> 00:41:38,899
oftentimes doesn

1364
00:41:38,899 --> 00:41:40,899
t get thanked

1365
00:41:41,435 --> 00:41:43,300
for it. When an individual has

1366
00:41:43,300 --> 00:41:44,304
been very, very, very

1367
00:41:44,304 --> 00:41:45,706
traumatized, they

1368
00:41:45,706 --> 00:41:47,175
re not in a

1369
00:41:47,175 --> 00:41:49,344
state or a place to be

1370
00:41:49,344 --> 00:41:50,945
thankful. If someone goes out

1371
00:41:50,945 --> 00:41:53,114
and saves an individual who is

1372
00:41:53,114 --> 00:41:54,182
drowning, or is a lifeguard

1373
00:41:54,182 --> 00:41:55,483
going to get angry at that

1374
00:41:55,483 --> 00:41:55,950
person for hitting them in the

1375
00:41:55,950 --> 00:41:56,417
head while they

1376
00:41:56,417 --> 00:41:57,519
re wailing

1377
00:41:57,519 --> 00:41:59,870
their hands, just trying to

1378
00:41:59,870 --> 00:41:59,621
stay afloat? There

1379
00:41:59,621 --> 00:42:01,220
s a lot of

1380
00:42:01,220 --> 00:42:01,191
brokenness in the system, and

1381
00:42:01,191 --> 00:42:03,191
I

1382
00:42:03,324 --> 00:42:03,625
ve spoken many times, and I

1383
00:42:03,625 --> 00:42:05,427
think it

1384
00:42:05,427 --> 00:42:05,694
s just a shame. I

1385
00:42:05,694 --> 00:42:07,196
think it

1386
00:42:07,196 --> 00:42:07,396
s a shame and it

1387
00:42:07,396 --> 00:42:09,396
s

1388
00:42:09,698 --> 00:42:12,980
heartbreaking because real day

1389
00:42:12,434 --> 00:42:12,668
suffering has happened in many

1390
00:42:12,668 --> 00:42:13,802
people

1391
00:42:13,802 --> 00:42:15,370
s lives, and sometimes

1392
00:42:15,370 --> 00:42:15,571
they need help. But when trust

1393
00:42:15,571 --> 00:42:16,405
is broken, it

1394
00:42:16,405 --> 00:42:17,139
s broken. And

1395
00:42:17,139 --> 00:42:17,739
oftentimes it can

1396
00:42:17,739 --> 00:42:19,739
t always be

1397
00:42:20,375 --> 00:42:22,450
repaired. I have spent so many

1398
00:42:22,450 --> 00:42:24,614
nights in my life where I have

1399
00:42:24,614 --> 00:42:27,830
had sheer panic, terror and

1400
00:42:27,830 --> 00:42:27,283
fear, trusting nobody. And

1401
00:42:27,283 --> 00:42:28,918
that

1402
00:42:28,918 --> 00:42:29,218
s not an exaggeration.

1403
00:42:29,218 --> 00:42:30,319
And that

1404
00:42:30,319 --> 00:42:30,481
s your time.

1405
00:42:30,481 --> 00:42:31,554
I

1406
00:42:31,554 --> 00:42:32,121
m well aware. Thank you

1407
00:42:32,121 --> 00:42:32,488
Jessica.

1408
00:42:32,488 --> 00:42:34,488
Thank you ma

1409
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:37,529
am. All right,

1410
00:42:37,529 --> 00:42:39,396
let

1411
00:42:39,396 --> 00:42:40,630
s move on to the next is

1412
00:42:40,630 --> 00:42:41,765
going to be our city Council

1413
00:42:41,765 --> 00:42:43,000
reports. Would any of my

1414
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,600
colleagues like to go first on

1415
00:42:47,671 --> 00:42:51,410
that one? All right, MR. Stew.

1416
00:42:51,410 --> 00:42:53,760
I believe I have a slide. All

1417
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,476
right. Summer concert series

1418
00:42:56,748 --> 00:42:59,550
starts Thursday, two days. Um,

1419
00:42:59,550 --> 00:43:02,353
first one is Pulp Vixen, which

1420
00:43:02,353 --> 00:43:04,422
is always entertaining. Um,

1421
00:43:04,422 --> 00:43:06,357
this is this is, to me, one of

1422
00:43:06,357 --> 00:43:08,326
the one of my other favorite

1423
00:43:08,326 --> 00:43:09,894
times of the year is summertime

1424
00:43:09,894 --> 00:43:10,127
concerts. And this year we

1425
00:43:10,127 --> 00:43:11,795
re

1426
00:43:11,795 --> 00:43:14,195
having eight concerts instead

1427
00:43:14,833 --> 00:43:15,330
of the normal five. And, um,

1428
00:43:15,330 --> 00:43:16,101
what

1429
00:43:16,101 --> 00:43:18,803
s really cool about these

1430
00:43:18,803 --> 00:43:20,839
events is the fact that you see

1431
00:43:20,839 --> 00:43:22,507
neighbors sitting with

1432
00:43:22,507 --> 00:43:23,775
neighbors, and it

1433
00:43:23,775 --> 00:43:25,775
s just it

1434
00:43:25,877 --> 00:43:27,445
really brings the community

1435
00:43:27,445 --> 00:43:27,779
together and there

1436
00:43:27,779 --> 00:43:29,779
s no

1437
00:43:30,482 --> 00:43:31,720
politics in concerts or in

1438
00:43:31,720 --> 00:43:31,951
music. It

1439
00:43:31,951 --> 00:43:32,618
s just it

1440
00:43:32,618 --> 00:43:34,353
s just

1441
00:43:34,353 --> 00:43:35,870
beautiful music and it

1442
00:43:35,870 --> 00:43:37,870
s just a

1443
00:43:37,189 --> 00:43:40,192
lot of fun. So if you get a

1444
00:43:40,192 --> 00:43:42,261
chance, come out this Thursday,

1445
00:43:42,261 --> 00:43:43,562

1446
00:43:43,562 --> 00:43:44,997
it usually fills up pretty

1447
00:43:44,997 --> 00:43:46,332
good. So if you get here around

1448
00:43:46,332 --> 00:43:46,865
six and there

1449
00:43:46,865 --> 00:43:49,202

00:43:49,202 --> 00:43:50,236

1451
00:43:50,236 --> 00:43:52,236

1452
00:43:52,539 --> 00:43:54,674

1453
00:43:54,674 --> 00:43:57,377
down, have a little snack

1454
00:43:57,377 --> 00:43:57,544
before the concert series. But

1455
00:43:57,544 --> 00:43:59,345
it

1456
00:43:59,345 --> 00:44:00,346
s always, always a lot of

1457
00:44:00,346 --> 00:44:01,548
fun. So that

1458
00:44:01,548 --> 00:44:03,548

1459
00:44:03,916 --> 00:44:05,418

t really beat that. And

then the last one will be this

1522
00:45:30,390 --> 00:45:30,740

00:45:32,943 --> 00:45:34,678
on ways to improve our parks.

1525
00:45:34,678 --> 00:45:36,948
And one of those is restrooms.

1526
00:45:36,948 --> 00:45:38,849
And so we continually get

1527
00:45:38,849 --> 00:45:40,284
requests for restrooms in our

1528
00:45:40,284 --> 00:45:40,618
parks. And over the last few

1529
00:45:40,618 --> 00:45:42,860
years, we

1530
00:45:42,860 --> 00:45:44,210
ve updated quite a

1531
00:45:44,210 --> 00:45:44,922
few of our parks. And this year

1532
00:45:44,922 --> 00:45:46,223
we have we

1533
00:45:46,223 --> 00:45:46,624
ll be unveiling

1534
00:45:46,624 --> 00:45:48,358
actually, they

1535
00:45:48,358 --> 00:45:49,960
re open now, but

1536
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:51,195
two new restrooms, one at Long

1537
00:45:51,195 --> 00:45:52,397
Canyon Creek Park and the other

1538
00:45:52,397 --> 00:45:53,331
at Vail Ranch Park. So if we

1539
00:45:53,331 --> 00:45:54,990
could roll that reel.

1540
00:45:54,990 --> 00:45:54,666
Hey everyone, it

1541
00:45:54,666 --> 00:45:55,934
s Mike Wooten

1542
00:45:55,934 --> 00:45:57,269
again, and we have an important

1543
00:45:57,269 --> 00:45:59,170
update on the Long Canyon Creek

1544
00:45:59,170 --> 00:45:59,337
and Vail Ranch parks. And yes,

1545
00:45:59,337 --> 00:46:01,337
it

1546
00:46:01,839 --> 00:46:02,173
s about bathrooms. It

1547
00:46:02,173 --> 00:46:03,740
s not

1548
00:46:03,740 --> 00:46:04,542
every day we leave with the

1549
00:46:04,542 --> 00:46:05,744
bathroom story, but when nature

1550
00:46:05,744 --> 00:46:07,145
calls, local government

1551
00:46:07,145 --> 00:46:08,246
answers. You probably heard us

1552
00:46:08,246 --> 00:46:09,515
talking about these restroom

1553
00:46:09,515 --> 00:46:09,721
projects for a while now, and

1554
00:46:09,721 --> 00:46:10,482
we

1555
00:46:10,482 --> 00:46:10,783
re excited to say they

1556
00:46:10,783 --> 00:46:12,318

1557
00:46:12,318 --> 00:46:13,753
longer just coming soon. The

1558
00:46:13,753 --> 00:46:15,320
restrooms are open, fully

1559
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:15,588
operational, and helping make

1560
00:46:15,588 --> 00:46:16,589
everyone

1561
00:46:16,589 --> 00:46:18,290
s life a little bit

1562
00:46:18,290 --> 00:46:18,557
easier at the parks. So next

1563
00:46:18,557 --> 00:46:19,358
time you

1564
00:46:19,358 --> 00:46:20,893
re out enjoying one of

1565
00:46:20,893 --> 00:46:22,270
these parks, you can rest easy

1566
00:46:22,270 --> 00:46:23,429
knowing that these facilities

1567
00:46:23,429 --> 00:46:23,593
are up and running. I know it

1568
00:46:23,593 --> 00:46:24,697
s

1569
00:46:24,697 --> 00:46:24,865
not the flashiest project we

1570
00:46:24,865 --> 00:46:26,310
ve

1571
00:46:26,310 --> 00:46:30,231
covered, but it might be one of

1572
00:46:34,407 --> 00:46:36,209
the most appreciated.

1573
00:46:36,209 --> 00:46:37,100
And that is the progress report

1574
00:46:37,100 --> 00:46:38,111
for our bathrooms. And

1575
00:46:38,111 --> 00:46:39,245
definitely like the restrooms

1576
00:46:39,245 --> 00:46:41,447
are certainly like one of the

1577
00:46:41,447 --> 00:46:41,981
most appreciated items in our

1578
00:46:41,981 --> 00:46:42,415
parks, whether you

1579
00:46:42,415 --> 00:46:43,416

m just going to kick

1596
00:47:03,204 --> 00:47:03,404
it off real quick here. We

1597
00:47:03,404 --> 00:47:05,404
ll

1598
00:47:05,506 --> 00:47:07,809
start out with the last meeting

1599
00:47:07,809 --> 00:47:08,109
that I had just last week with

1600
00:47:08,109 --> 00:47:09,877
the mayor

1601
00:47:09,877 --> 00:47:12,277
s roundtable. So I

1602
00:47:12,413 --> 00:47:14,810
had an opportunity for our JUNE

1603
00:47:14,810 --> 00:47:16,217
roundtable to bring in

1604
00:47:16,217 --> 00:47:17,352
businesses of all types, uh,

1605
00:47:17,352 --> 00:47:18,519
and talking really about

1606
00:47:18,519 --> 00:47:19,855
economic development and what

1607
00:47:19,855 --> 00:47:21,590
that looks like in our city. We

1608
00:47:21,590 --> 00:47:22,858
brought in our staff to be able

1609
00:47:22,858 --> 00:47:25,193
to have those conversations as

1610
00:47:25,193 --> 00:47:27,396
well and see what is going

1611
00:47:27,396 --> 00:47:29,531
really, really well and where

1612
00:47:29,531 --> 00:47:30,732
we need to continue to do

1613
00:47:30,732 --> 00:47:32,534
better here as a city with our

1614
00:47:32,534 --> 00:47:34,602
businesses. We end up having

1615
00:47:34,602 --> 00:47:36,370
the chamber come in. We had,

1616
00:47:36,370 --> 00:47:38,374
uh, manufacturers come in

1617
00:47:38,374 --> 00:47:40,420
coffee shop, uh, you know, let

1618
00:47:40,420 --> 00:47:41,277
me see. We we brought in a

1619
00:47:41,277 --> 00:47:43,379
coffee shop. We we invited

1620
00:47:43,379 --> 00:47:46,150
them. We had invited medical

1621
00:47:46,150 --> 00:47:47,820
old town, uh, retailer, small

1622
00:47:47,820 --> 00:47:48,484
businesses. The mall,

1623
00:47:48,484 --> 00:47:50,152
restaurant, entertainment,

1624
00:47:50,152 --> 00:47:51,554
private schools and large

1625
00:47:51,554 --> 00:47:54,491
retailers as well. So we really

1626
00:47:54,491 --> 00:47:56,793
wanted to look at a variety of

1627
00:47:56,793 --> 00:47:58,395
different businesses and see

1628
00:47:58,395 --> 00:48:00,730
how we can collaborate and work

1629
00:48:00,730 --> 00:48:02,165
together and see where really

1630
00:48:02,165 --> 00:48:03,733
we can continue to improve as a

1631
00:48:03,733 --> 00:48:05,135
city and looking at what not

1632
00:48:05,135 --> 00:48:06,269
only that they need, but also

1633
00:48:06,269 --> 00:48:07,237
our community needs. So I just

1634
00:48:07,237 --> 00:48:09,139
want to give a shout out to

1635
00:48:09,139 --> 00:48:11,700
each one of those who came, uh,

1636
00:48:11,700 --> 00:48:12,276
brought great information and

1637
00:48:12,276 --> 00:48:14,178
we were able to take some of

1638
00:48:14,178 --> 00:48:15,813
that back and be able to

1639
00:48:15,813 --> 00:48:15,982
utilize it, whether it

1640
00:48:15,982 --> 00:48:17,848
s

1641
00:48:17,848 --> 00:48:19,830
economic development or even

1642
00:48:19,830 --> 00:48:20,551
other areas. So I just want to

1643
00:48:20,551 --> 00:48:21,619
say thank you to them and also

1644
00:48:21,619 --> 00:48:24,188

1645
00:48:24,188 --> 00:48:26,257

1723
00:50:25,981 --> 00:50:26,348
council now for six and a half

1724
00:50:26,348 --> 00:50:27,649
years, it

1725
00:50:27,649 --> 00:50:29,251
s been an honor and a

1726
00:50:29,251 --> 00:50:31,651
pleasure working with everybody

1727
00:50:32,255 --> 00:50:34,655

00:50:37,761 --> 00:50:41,361
And I can definitely sit here

1730
00:50:41,398 --> 00:50:43,366
and say, 110% that this city

1731
00:50:43,366 --> 00:50:45,101
does everything it can to be

1732
00:50:45,101 --> 00:50:47,103
able to support individuals who

1733
00:50:47,103 --> 00:50:49,503
are dealing with homeless

1734
00:50:49,773 --> 00:50:51,475
issues, and there is not one

1735
00:50:51,475 --> 00:50:53,978
person that ever comes before

1736
00:50:53,978 --> 00:50:56,247
any of us that we ever want to

1737
00:50:56,247 --> 00:50:56,580
shun away or say, you

1738
00:50:56,580 --> 00:50:58,580
re not

1739
00:50:58,649 --> 00:51:00,517

1740
00:51:00,517 --> 00:51:02,586
that came, please come back,

1741
00:51:02,586 --> 00:51:03,487

ve said that

1745
00:51:06,825 --> 00:51:08,760
before, but we have an

1746
00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:10,228
incredible community here, and

1747
00:51:10,228 --> 00:51:12,363
this community does not look at

1748
00:51:12,363 --> 00:51:13,965
homelessness lightly. And we

1749
00:51:13,965 --> 00:51:15,533
will continue to work hard in

1750
00:51:15,533 --> 00:51:17,635

1751
00:51:17,635 --> 00:51:19,804
wants a home has a pathway to

1752
00:51:19,804 --> 00:51:20,838
get into a home. And today, I

1753
00:51:20,838 --> 00:51:22,407
just had an incredible

1754
00:51:22,407 --> 00:51:24,430
opportunity to sit with some

1755
00:51:24,430 --> 00:51:25,644
ladies who were leaders in

1756
00:51:25,644 --> 00:51:25,977
nonprofits. And what we

1757
00:51:25,977 --> 00:51:27,346
re

1758
00:51:27,346 --> 00:51:28,380
looking at possibly doing in

1759
00:51:28,380 --> 00:51:30,282
the future and how we can

1760
00:51:30,282 --> 00:51:31,650
continue to work together. So

1761
00:51:31,650 --> 00:51:33,251

1762
00:51:33,251 --> 00:51:34,592

$0.01 transactions and use tax

2095
01:00:59,541 --> 01:01:02,245
approved by Temecula voters in

2096
01:01:02,245 --> 01:01:03,579
NOVEMBER of 2016. This revenue

2097
01:01:03,579 --> 01:01:05,979
source became effective in

2098
01:01:05,982 --> 01:01:08,982
APRIL of 2017 and has generated

2099
01:01:11,988 --> 01:01:14,388
nearly $275 million in revenue.

2100
01:01:14,824 --> 01:01:16,259
For fiscal year 2627, measure s

2101
01:01:16,259 --> 01:01:18,659
revenues expected to increase

2102
01:01:18,829 --> 01:01:21,265
by 3.5% over the prior year to

2103
01:01:21,265 --> 01:01:22,999
40.7 million. Total

2104
01:01:22,999 --> 01:01:25,350
appropriations are budgeted at

2105
01:01:25,350 --> 01:01:25,269
48 million and are in line with

2106
01:01:25,269 --> 01:01:26,836
council

2107
01:01:26,836 --> 01:01:28,836

01:01:28,905 --> 01:01:30,574
Prioritizing public safety,

2109
01:01:30,574 --> 01:01:32,574
asset management, capital

2110
01:01:34,511 --> 01:01:36,911
projects and community services.

2111
01:01:37,415 --> 01:01:38,849
The Temecula Community Services

2112
01:01:38,849 --> 01:01:40,251
District is a separate legal

2113
01:01:40,251 --> 01:01:43,354
entity from the city, and has

2114
01:01:43,354 --> 01:01:45,322
its own operating budget, and

2115
01:01:45,322 --> 01:01:46,757
for next fiscal year, the csd

2116
01:01:46,757 --> 01:01:48,757
budget reflects revenue

2117
01:01:49,927 --> 01:01:51,262
totaling 19.7 million. Program

2118
01:01:51,262 --> 01:01:52,863
revenue, which includes the

2119
01:01:52,863 --> 01:01:54,933
income from contract classes,

2120
01:01:54,933 --> 01:01:56,768
registration fees, de camp,

2121
01:01:56,768 --> 01:01:59,300
aquatics and theater tickets is

2122
01:01:59,300 --> 01:02:01,273
projected to be $3 million.

2123
01:02:01,273 --> 01:02:03,875
Measure c, which is the $74 and

2124
01:02:03,875 --> 01:02:04,842
44 cent parcel tax dedicated to

2125
01:02:04,842 --> 01:02:06,611
parks, programs and

2126
01:02:06,611 --> 01:02:08,613
maintenance, is expected to be

2127
01:02:08,613 --> 01:02:10,883
$2 million, and the measure s

2128
01:02:10,883 --> 01:02:12,883
contribution of 14.7 million

2129
01:02:13,252 --> 01:02:14,319
provides the remaining revenue

2130
01:02:14,319 --> 01:02:15,588
necessary to cover the

2131
01:02:15,588 --> 01:02:17,988
operations and maintenance to

2132
01:02:19,224 --> 01:02:21,224
facilitate programs, services

2133
01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:23,360
and events. Operating

2134
01:02:23,729 --> 01:02:25,729
expenditures of 19.7 million

2135
01:02:26,398 --> 01:02:27,934
are decreasing by 4.2%,

2136
01:02:27,934 --> 01:02:29,536
primarily due to the savings

2137
01:02:29,536 --> 01:02:31,771
from five vacant authorized

2138
01:02:31,771 --> 01:02:33,573
positions and 15 project

2139
01:02:33,573 --> 01:02:35,641
positions, leaving an ending

2140
01:02:35,641 --> 01:02:38,410
fund balance of $100,000 for

2141
01:02:39,679 --> 01:02:40,747
fiscal year 2627. The Capital

2142
01:02:40,747 --> 01:02:42,348
Improvement Program is a

2143
01:02:42,348 --> 01:02:43,449
comprehensive five year plan

2144
01:02:43,449 --> 01:02:44,951
that addresses the capital

2145
01:02:44,951 --> 01:02:46,487
needs of the city. Capital

2146
01:02:46,487 --> 01:02:48,789
projects are those that cost

2147
01:02:48,789 --> 01:02:50,123
over $30,000, have a long term

2148
01:02:50,123 --> 01:02:53,123
life span, and are generally

2149
01:02:54,828 --> 01:02:57,228
non-recurring. The fiscal year

2150
01:02:58,765 --> 01:03:00,567
27 through 31 cip includes 94

2151
01:03:00,567 --> 01:03:02,967
separate projects, with total

2152
01:03:04,380 --> 01:03:05,239
cost of over $916 million. The

2153
01:03:05,239 --> 01:03:07,608
city has secured funding

2154
01:03:07,608 --> 01:03:09,608
sources totaling 634 million,

2155
01:03:10,878 --> 01:03:12,880
or 69% of the total cip, and

2156
01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:14,448
the remaining 283 million is

2157
01:03:14,448 --> 01:03:15,883
unspecified at this time.

2158
01:03:15,883 --> 01:03:16,851
However, before construction

2159
01:03:16,851 --> 01:03:18,419
begins on any of these

2160
01:03:18,419 --> 01:03:20,422
projects, a funding source will

2161
01:03:20,422 --> 01:03:21,657
be identified between the

2162
01:03:21,657 --> 01:03:22,391
current year and the next

2163
01:03:22,391 --> 01:03:23,292
fiscal year. It

2164
01:03:23,292 --> 01:03:25,600
s anticipated

2165
01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:28,600
the cip spending will exceed

2166
01:03:28,597 --> 01:03:30,597
$192 million. After extensive

2167
01:03:30,699 --> 01:03:32,300
review, cip projects have been

2168
01:03:32,300 --> 01:03:33,802
prioritized to ensure that

2169
01:03:33,802 --> 01:03:35,537
funding is available for

2170
01:03:35,537 --> 01:03:37,172
several high profile projects

2171
01:03:37,172 --> 01:03:40,172
approved at the cip workshop

2172
01:03:41,744 --> 01:03:42,979
held last fall. The annual

2173
01:03:42,979 --> 01:03:43,179
operating budget contains the

2174
01:03:43,179 --> 01:03:44,460
city

2175
01:03:44,460 --> 01:03:45,648
s budget and fiscal

2176
01:03:45,648 --> 01:03:47,683
policies, which are reviewed

2177
01:03:47,683 --> 01:03:49,585
each year, and this year we are

2178
01:03:49,585 --> 01:03:51,253
recommending modifications to

2179
01:03:51,253 --> 01:03:54,253
two existing policies and the

2180
01:03:55,892 --> 01:03:57,294
addition of three new policies.

2181
01:03:57,294 --> 01:03:58,762
The first is the capital

2182
01:03:58,762 --> 01:04:01,162
Financing and Debt management

2183
01:04:01,298 --> 01:04:03,266
policy. This policy has been

2184
01:04:03,266 --> 01:04:04,801
expanded to include new goals,

2185
01:04:04,801 --> 01:04:06,336
criteria and criteria to be

2186
01:04:06,336 --> 01:04:08,138
considered before approving any

2187
01:04:08,138 --> 01:04:09,706
new general fund debt and a

2188
01:04:09,706 --> 01:04:12,106
section on arbitrage rebate

2189
01:04:12,442 --> 01:04:14,478
compliance. Next is a new

2190
01:04:14,478 --> 01:04:15,679
policy that codifies the

2191
01:04:15,679 --> 01:04:15,980
desired timing of the city

2192
01:04:15,980 --> 01:04:17,980
s

2193
01:04:18,182 --> 01:04:20,818
cost allocation plan and user

2194
01:04:20,818 --> 01:04:23,787
fee study updates to be every 3

2195
01:04:23,787 --> 01:04:25,256
to 5 years, with a final

2196
01:04:25,256 --> 01:04:26,891
payment of the debt liability

2197
01:04:26,891 --> 01:04:28,292
payoff strategy in JULY. We

2198
01:04:28,292 --> 01:04:30,227
will now turn to the

2199
01:04:30,227 --> 01:04:31,929
sustainability efforts to

2200
01:04:31,929 --> 01:04:32,198
remain 100% funded in the

2201
01:04:32,198 --> 01:04:33,231
city

2202
01:04:33,231 --> 01:04:33,531
s pension. It

2203
01:04:33,531 --> 01:04:34,899
s

2204
01:04:34,899 --> 01:04:37,102
recommended to utilize the

2205
01:04:37,102 --> 01:04:38,536
pension trust as a reserve for

2206
01:04:38,536 --> 01:04:40,936
future liabilities that MAY

2207
01:04:41,106 --> 01:04:41,372
arise. When Calpers calculates

2208
01:04:41,372 --> 01:04:42,540
the city

2209
01:04:42,540 --> 01:04:44,842
s funded status each

2210
01:04:44,842 --> 01:04:46,477
year. And similar to the

2211
01:04:46,477 --> 01:04:46,673
pension funding policy, we

2212
01:04:46,673 --> 01:04:48,130
re

2213
01:04:48,130 --> 01:04:49,214
recommending a new policy to

2214
01:04:49,214 --> 01:04:49,415
address the funding of the

2215
01:04:49,415 --> 01:04:51,183
city

2216
01:04:51,183 --> 01:04:53,850
s retiree health benefit

2217
01:04:53,850 --> 01:04:55,485
program, currently funded at

2218
01:04:55,854 --> 01:04:57,456
120%. This new policy will

2219
01:04:57,456 --> 01:04:59,158
address the uses of these funds

2220
01:04:59,158 --> 01:05:00,559
and how to replenish the trust.

2221
01:05:00,559 --> 01:05:03,559
If the funded status drops

2222
01:05:03,729 --> 01:05:03,916
below 100%. And finally, we

2223
01:05:03,916 --> 01:05:05,565
re

2224
01:05:05,565 --> 01:05:06,966
recommending the removal of the

2225
01:05:06,966 --> 01:05:08,935
debt liability pay down

2226
01:05:08,935 --> 01:05:11,700
strategy policy. As we have

2227
01:05:11,700 --> 01:05:12,371
achieved the objectives by

2228
01:05:12,371 --> 01:05:13,907
paying down all city

2229
01:05:13,907 --> 01:05:16,307
liabilities and are currently

2230
01:05:18,277 --> 01:05:19,946
debt free. At its budget

2231
01:05:19,946 --> 01:05:21,681
workshop on MAY 21st. The

2232
01:05:21,681 --> 01:05:23,160
council had a robust discussion

2233
01:05:23,160 --> 01:05:24,451
about several items and made

2234
01:05:24,451 --> 01:05:26,320
recommendations to include the

2235
01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:29,320
following items in the adopted

2236
01:05:31,224 --> 01:05:32,359
budget and cip. The first is a

2237
01:05:32,359 --> 01:05:34,759
one time contribution of

2238
01:05:35,950 --> 01:05:36,396
$25,000 to the Msj c Endowment

2239
01:05:36,396 --> 01:05:36,630
Fund to support the school

2240
01:05:36,630 --> 01:05:37,898
s

2241
01:05:37,898 --> 01:05:39,399
foundation, and providing

2242
01:05:39,399 --> 01:05:41,399
student scholarships, grants

2243
01:05:42,970 --> 01:05:44,772
and capital needs. Next is a

2244
01:05:44,772 --> 01:05:47,172
capital project allocation of

2245
01:05:47,408 --> 01:05:48,776
an additional $500,000 in

2246
01:05:48,776 --> 01:05:49,911
funding to update both

2247
01:05:49,911 --> 01:05:51,412
playgrounds at the Ronald

2248
01:05:51,412 --> 01:05:52,980
Reagan Sports Park, bringing

2249
01:05:52,980 --> 01:05:55,980
the total project budget to

2250
01:05:58,453 --> 01:05:59,421
1,350,000. To prioritize the

2251
01:05:59,421 --> 01:06:00,822
rehabilitation of the

2252
01:06:00,822 --> 01:06:02,690
intersection of Margarita and

2253
01:06:02,690 --> 01:06:03,892
Winchester roads. Existing

2254
01:06:03,892 --> 01:06:05,460
budget within the pavement

2255
01:06:05,460 --> 01:06:07,460
management, pavement

2256
01:06:07,529 --> 01:06:08,697
rehabilitation cip will be

2257
01:06:08,697 --> 01:06:11,970
diverted to complete this

2258
01:06:13,602 --> 01:06:15,404
project. $500,000 in Community

2259
01:06:15,404 --> 01:06:17,273
Reinvestment Program funding

2260
01:06:17,273 --> 01:06:19,174
was allocated to install

2261
01:06:19,174 --> 01:06:20,776
wayfinding signs in Old Town.

2262
01:06:20,776 --> 01:06:22,411
This project is being converted

2263
01:06:22,411 --> 01:06:24,811
from an operating expenditure

2264
01:06:26,148 --> 01:06:27,416
to a capital project. And

2265
01:06:27,416 --> 01:06:28,650
finally, as mentioned earlier,

2266
01:06:28,650 --> 01:06:29,485
modifications to the city

2267
01:06:29,485 --> 01:06:31,420

2268
01:06:31,420 --> 01:06:33,256
debt policy are included in the

2269
01:06:33,256 --> 01:06:34,724
new budget and after discussion

2270
01:06:34,724 --> 01:06:36,693
at the budget workshop, Council

2271
01:06:36,693 --> 01:06:38,610
recommended reducing the debt

2272
01:06:38,610 --> 01:06:40,329
service limitation for the

2273
01:06:40,329 --> 01:06:41,965
general fund obligations from

2274
01:06:41,965 --> 01:06:44,365
10% of general fund revenue,

2275
01:06:44,501 --> 01:06:45,735
down to 5%. Additionally,

2276
01:06:45,735 --> 01:06:47,735
Council recommended adding

2277
01:06:48,104 --> 01:06:49,706
policy language requiring any

2278
01:06:49,706 --> 01:06:52,420
future debt obligations. Be

2279
01:06:52,420 --> 01:06:55,420

Let

2304
01:07:25,611 --> 01:07:27,460
s move into the discussion

2305
01:07:27,460 --> 01:07:30,646

2307
01:07:32,518 --> 01:07:32,677

2308
01:07:32,677 --> 01:07:34,186

01:07:36,622 --> 01:07:36,989
Um, and just maybe make a brief

comment.

2312
01:07:37,789 --> 01:07:38,624
Yeah. Please go ahead.

2313
01:07:38,624 --> 01:07:38,991
Okay. Yeah. So I

2314
01:07:38,991 --> 01:07:39,758
ll move the

2315
01:07:39,758 --> 01:07:41,727
item. I

2316
01:07:41,727 --> 01:07:42,695
m certainly proud of

2317
01:07:42,695 --> 01:07:43,129
the council here. I

2318
01:07:43,129 --> 01:07:45,129
m proud of

2319
01:07:45,198 --> 01:07:45,665
our team. Um, past council

2320
01:07:45,665 --> 01:07:46,966
s

2321
01:07:46,966 --> 01:07:49,102
past staff. Everyone has done a

2322
01:07:49,102 --> 01:07:51,502
fantastic job budgeting our

2323
01:07:52,271 --> 01:07:54,907
city. So thank you. And you

2324
01:07:54,907 --> 01:07:56,676
know, the residents are, um,

2325
01:07:56,676 --> 01:07:58,277
benefiting from that. You know,

2326
01:07:58,277 --> 01:07:59,979
fiscal conservatism and saving

2327
01:07:59,979 --> 01:08:02,349
and living within our means and

2328
01:08:02,349 --> 01:08:03,917
everything. Um, as far as,

2329
01:08:03,917 --> 01:08:05,152
like, sort of the action items,

2330
01:08:05,152 --> 01:08:06,520
you know, I was, I was hoping

2331
01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:06,675
for a less than 5%. But it

2332
01:08:06,675 --> 01:08:07,187
s

2333
01:08:07,187 --> 01:08:07,821
not a hill I

2334
01:08:07,821 --> 01:08:09,255
m willing to die

2335
01:08:09,255 --> 01:08:10,357
on. Um, so I think the

2336
01:08:10,357 --> 01:08:11,424
consensus at the meeting was

2337
01:08:11,424 --> 01:08:12,492
5%. So I

2338
01:08:12,492 --> 01:08:14,492
ll certainly support,

2339
01:08:14,861 --> 01:08:15,796
you know, support that. And and

2340
01:08:15,796 --> 01:08:17,865
then the future meeting as

2341
01:08:17,865 --> 01:08:18,866
well. As far as if we just have

2342
01:08:18,866 --> 01:08:20,868
a future meeting that would

2343
01:08:20,868 --> 01:08:22,690
satisfy the itch I have with

2344
01:08:22,690 --> 01:08:22,970
respect to that. Um, but other

2345
01:08:22,970 --> 01:08:24,472
than that, I

2346
01:08:24,472 --> 01:08:26,373
m very happy with,

2347
01:08:26,373 --> 01:08:28,609
with this process and, and look

2348
01:08:28,609 --> 01:08:29,110

2349
01:08:29,110 --> 01:08:30,377

2350
01:08:30,377 --> 01:08:32,479

01:08:38,186 --> 01:08:39,921

s

2357
01:08:41,122 --> 01:08:41,282
office. Everybody else that

2358
01:08:41,282 --> 01:08:42,190
s

2359
01:08:42,190 --> 01:08:43,224
been involved. I know each

2360
01:08:43,224 --> 01:08:45,227
department has to go through

2361
01:08:45,227 --> 01:08:45,760
this process as well. And so

2362
01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:46,261
appreciate everybody

2363
01:08:46,261 --> 01:08:47,329
s stepping

2364
01:08:47,329 --> 01:08:47,495
up this year, especially as

2365
01:08:47,495 --> 01:08:49,331
we

2366
01:08:49,331 --> 01:08:51,332
re starting to make some

2367
01:08:51,332 --> 01:08:53,502
some tougher fiscal decisions.

2368
01:08:53,502 --> 01:08:55,638
Um, the lack of, I think

2369
01:08:55,638 --> 01:08:57,106
comments and public input just

2370
01:08:57,106 --> 01:08:57,439
to for those that are watching

2371
01:08:57,439 --> 01:08:58,140
this and don

2372
01:08:58,140 --> 01:08:59,909
t know, there was

2373
01:08:59,909 --> 01:09:01,510
a whole public hearing just on

2374
01:09:01,510 --> 01:09:03,479
this that was like four hours

2375
01:09:03,479 --> 01:09:04,980
long or something. So we went

2376
01:09:04,980 --> 01:09:06,849
through a very robust version

2377
01:09:06,849 --> 01:09:07,150
of this already. So, you know,

2378
01:09:07,150 --> 01:09:07,983
we

2379
01:09:07,983 --> 01:09:09,218
ve already asked our

2380
01:09:09,218 --> 01:09:10,920
questions, had a great debate

2381
01:09:10,920 --> 01:09:12,489
and had a good discussion and

2382
01:09:12,489 --> 01:09:12,689
very happy with the way this

2383
01:09:12,689 --> 01:09:14,357
year

2384
01:09:14,357 --> 01:09:16,159
s budget went out. And Stu

2385
01:09:16,159 --> 01:09:16,493
mentioned it earlier, is that,

2386
01:09:16,493 --> 01:09:16,793
you know, it

2387
01:09:16,793 --> 01:09:18,361
s pretty

2388
01:09:18,361 --> 01:09:18,528
remarkable that in a few weeks,

2389
01:09:18,528 --> 01:09:20,296
we

2390
01:09:20,296 --> 01:09:23,299
re going to be one of the

2391
01:09:23,299 --> 01:09:26,299
only cities in California that,

2392
01:09:26,469 --> 01:09:28,439
uh, that is debt free. Um, and

2393
01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:30,741
no pension obligations as well.

2394
01:09:30,741 --> 01:09:32,476
And, uh, appreciate the start.

2395
01:09:32,476 --> 01:09:33,544
And truly the policy changes

2396
01:09:33,544 --> 01:09:34,578
that were made. I appreciate

2397
01:09:34,578 --> 01:09:36,813
everybody taking those to

2398
01:09:36,813 --> 01:09:38,382
heart. And, and but also really

2399
01:09:38,382 --> 01:09:40,417
appreciate the idea of moving

2400
01:09:40,417 --> 01:09:41,952
that, uh, $7.5 million into a

2401
01:09:41,952 --> 01:09:42,252
long term pension trust fund. I

2402
01:09:42,252 --> 01:09:43,854
think that

2403
01:09:43,854 --> 01:09:45,790
s a huge stability

2404
01:09:45,790 --> 01:09:46,657

01:09:46,657 --> 01:09:48,459

2406
01:09:48,459 --> 01:09:49,360
difference. So thank you all.

2699
01:19:24,660 --> 01:19:24,826
s report, and

2700

we

01:19:25,661 --> 01:19:26,428
re happy to answer any

2702
01:19:26,428 --> 01:19:28,428
questions.

2703
01:19:28,530 --> 01:19:31,660
Alrighty. Thank you very much.

2704
01:19:31,660 --> 01:19:31,266
Any council questions? Seeing

2705
01:19:31,266 --> 01:19:31,833
one.

2706
01:19:31,833 --> 01:19:33,833
Yep.

2707
01:19:35,403 --> 01:19:36,404
I do have one question. Um, so

2708
01:19:36,404 --> 01:19:37,372
I love the fact that we

2709
01:19:37,372 --> 01:19:38,139
re

2710
01:19:38,139 --> 01:19:40,139
making meetings more

2711
01:19:40,176 --> 01:19:41,677
accessible, but with the two

2712
01:19:41,677 --> 01:19:43,813
way telephonic and public

2713
01:19:43,813 --> 01:19:45,470
comment, how will that work? So

2714
01:19:45,470 --> 01:19:46,482
if you have 30 minutes for

2715
01:19:46,482 --> 01:19:47,216
non-agenda items and you have,

2716
01:19:47,216 --> 01:19:48,984
you know, people in the

2717
01:19:48,984 --> 01:19:51,720
audience, how does the queue

2718
01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:52,855
work? So like walk me through

2719
01:19:52,855 --> 01:19:53,255
that process.

2720
01:19:53,255 --> 01:19:53,889
Yeah.

2721
01:19:53,889 --> 01:19:54,823
So we

2722
01:19:54,823 --> 01:19:57,600
re still working out

2723
01:19:57,600 --> 01:19:59,696
logistics. But what I can, uh,

2724
01:19:59,696 --> 01:20:00,864
share with you, um, based in

2725
01:20:00,864 --> 01:20:03,199
consultation with the city

2726
01:20:03,199 --> 01:20:05,402
attorney, is we are obligated

2727
01:20:05,402 --> 01:20:08,304
to, um, to administer the

2728
01:20:08,304 --> 01:20:11,904
process in a fair and neutral

2729
01:20:12,242 --> 01:20:13,676
and, um, transparent manner. So

2730
01:20:13,676 --> 01:20:13,877
for practical purposes, I won

2731
01:20:13,877 --> 01:20:15,877
t

2732
01:20:16,280 --> 01:20:18,649
bore you with the back end. Um,

2733
01:20:18,649 --> 01:20:20,251
that it, um. And testing is

2734
01:20:20,251 --> 01:20:22,519
still happening on what I will

2735
01:20:22,519 --> 01:20:23,654
tell you is we anticipate 30

2736
01:20:23,654 --> 01:20:25,723
minute public comment on

2737
01:20:25,723 --> 01:20:27,910
non-agenda items, and most

2738
01:20:27,910 --> 01:20:28,725
likely what will happen is I

2739
01:20:28,725 --> 01:20:30,361
will pull a speaker card from

2740
01:20:30,361 --> 01:20:32,300
somebody that is in person, and

2741
01:20:32,300 --> 01:20:33,598
then I will go ahead and call

2742
01:20:33,598 --> 01:20:35,133
up somebody from the queue, and

2743
01:20:35,133 --> 01:20:36,734
then I will go ahead and pull

2744
01:20:36,734 --> 01:20:38,690
another speaker card, and I

2745
01:20:38,690 --> 01:20:39,537
will hit up somebody from the

2746
01:20:39,537 --> 01:20:40,972
queue. And the same thing will

2747
01:20:40,972 --> 01:20:42,373
happen for business items or

2748
01:20:42,373 --> 01:20:44,842
public hearings or any of those

2749
01:20:44,842 --> 01:20:46,611
things as well. Um, all of the

2750
01:20:46,611 --> 01:20:48,646
speakers will have the

2751
01:20:48,646 --> 01:20:51,617
appropriate amount of time, and

2752
01:20:51,617 --> 01:20:52,918
we will be very strict on time.

2753
01:20:52,918 --> 01:20:53,385
Um, so because we

2754
01:20:53,385 --> 01:20:55,287
re going to

2755
01:20:55,287 --> 01:20:56,822
have to be, um, we will be

2756
01:20:56,822 --> 01:20:59,224
professional, but we will have

2757
01:20:59,224 --> 01:21:01,159
to be a little strict. So there

2758
01:21:01,159 --> 01:21:02,227
will be no more. Please go

2759
01:21:02,227 --> 01:21:04,290
ahead and finish up your

2760
01:21:04,290 --> 01:21:06,231
comment or any of those kinds

2761
01:21:06,231 --> 01:21:08,334
of things. It will be three

2762
01:21:08,334 --> 01:21:09,836
minutes is up. They go out. I

2763
01:21:09,836 --> 01:21:10,169
call the next person. You

2764
01:21:10,169 --> 01:21:11,738
re

2765
01:21:11,738 --> 01:21:13,406
done. The button buzzes, the

2766
01:21:13,406 --> 01:21:13,606
next person queues up. So

2767
01:21:13,606 --> 01:21:14,607
that

2768
01:21:14,607 --> 01:21:15,541
s how we envision it to

2769
01:21:15,541 --> 01:21:16,609
work, sir.

2770
01:21:16,609 --> 01:21:17,810
Okay, I

2771
01:21:17,810 --> 01:21:19,545
m like, I think that

2772
01:21:19,545 --> 01:21:21,347
works well for business items.

2773
01:21:21,347 --> 01:21:23,749
I think it works well for, um,

2774
01:21:23,749 --> 01:21:24,160
for public hearings where I,

2775
01:21:24,160 --> 01:21:26,160
where I

2776
01:21:27,521 --> 01:21:29,990
m going to sort of, um,

2777
01:21:29,990 --> 01:21:31,191
give you my, my unfiltered

2778
01:21:31,191 --> 01:21:31,359
thoughts about this. I think

2779
01:21:31,359 --> 01:21:31,958
it

2780
01:21:31,958 --> 01:21:32,859
s, I think it

2781
01:21:32,859 --> 01:21:34,161
s unfair for

2782
01:21:34,161 --> 01:21:36,263
people that actually show up to

2783
01:21:36,263 --> 01:21:36,529
the meeting and get in line.

2784
01:21:36,529 --> 01:21:37,864
Um, they

2785
01:21:37,864 --> 01:21:39,466
re here early. And

2786
01:21:39,466 --> 01:21:40,767
then for someone to be online

2787
01:21:40,767 --> 01:21:42,770
and to be able to get in the

2788
01:21:42,770 --> 01:21:43,370
queue and potentially, um, if

2789
01:21:43,370 --> 01:21:44,539
we, if we don

2790
01:21:44,539 --> 01:21:45,773
t extend the time

2791
01:21:45,773 --> 01:21:46,707
for non-agenda items, you

2792
01:21:46,707 --> 01:21:48,750
potentially have people that

2793
01:21:48,750 --> 01:21:48,576
live here that weren

2794
01:21:48,576 --> 01:21:50,210
t able to

2795
01:21:50,210 --> 01:21:51,812
speak where someone from across

2796
01:21:51,812 --> 01:21:53,147
the country could log in

2797
01:21:53,147 --> 01:21:54,810
because they like making public

2798
01:21:54,810 --> 01:21:54,648
comments. You know, we

2799
01:21:54,648 --> 01:21:54,815
ve all

2800
01:21:54,815 --> 01:21:55,950
we

2801
01:21:55,950 --> 01:21:56,183
ve all heard these comments.

2802
01:21:56,183 --> 01:21:56,951
If you

2803
01:21:56,951 --> 01:21:58,180
ve ever listened to the

2804
01:21:58,180 --> 01:22:00,288
county Board of Supervisors

2805
01:22:00,288 --> 01:22:00,449
meetings, they do this. Um, so

2806
01:22:00,449 --> 01:22:01,723
I

2807
01:22:01,723 --> 01:22:01,990
m going to just like that

2808
01:22:01,990 --> 01:22:03,825
s

2809
01:22:03,825 --> 01:22:04,292
my concern that I would like

2810
01:22:04,292 --> 01:22:05,660
us, if it

2811
01:22:05,660 --> 01:22:07,295
s legally possible to

2812
01:22:07,295 --> 01:22:08,930
do is prioritize people that

2813
01:22:08,930 --> 01:22:09,102
are sitting here. And if it

2814
01:22:09,102 --> 01:22:10,131
s

2815
01:22:10,131 --> 01:22:11,132
not, and we can sort of work

2816
01:22:11,132 --> 01:22:11,332
through that. But those are

2817
01:22:11,332 --> 01:22:12,533
that

2818
01:22:12,533 --> 01:22:13,401
s like the hesitation I

2819
01:22:13,401 --> 01:22:13,868
have is that you

2820
01:22:13,868 --> 01:22:14,502
ll have folks

2821
01:22:14,502 --> 01:22:14,655
that will come and they won

2822
01:22:14,655 --> 01:22:15,303
t

2823
01:22:15,303 --> 01:22:16,972
be able to speak.

2824
01:22:16,972 --> 01:22:18,574
Yes. And that is definitely one

2825
01:22:18,574 --> 01:22:21,310
of the items that was

2826
01:22:21,310 --> 01:22:23,646
considered in the development

2827
01:22:23,646 --> 01:22:27,246
of, um, not only the the

2828
01:22:27,249 --> 01:22:29,151
legislation, but also in the

2829
01:22:29,151 --> 01:22:31,530
development of our policy and

2830
01:22:31,530 --> 01:22:32,288
our practice and all of that.

2831
01:22:32,288 --> 01:22:35,888
While we would like to give

2832
01:22:36,250 --> 01:22:38,228
preferential, um, um, kind of,

2833
01:22:38,228 --> 01:22:40,764
uh, outlook to those that have

2834
01:22:40,764 --> 01:22:42,732
taken the time to come in. Um,

2835
01:22:42,732 --> 01:22:44,467
at this time, it looks like we

2836
01:22:44,467 --> 01:22:46,769
are going to have to again

2837
01:22:46,769 --> 01:22:49,372
process the, um, administer the

2838
01:22:49,372 --> 01:22:53,572
program in a way that is, um,

2839
01:22:54,110 --> 01:22:54,345
completely 1 in 1. However, I

2840
01:22:54,345 --> 01:22:55,979
m

2841
01:22:55,979 --> 01:22:57,514
happy to go back to the city

2842
01:22:57,514 --> 01:22:59,817
attorney and just make sure

2843
01:22:59,817 --> 01:23:00,484
that we can go through that one

2844
01:23:00,484 --> 01:23:01,850
more time. And there

2845
01:23:01,850 --> 01:23:02,520
s nothing

2846
01:23:02,520 --> 01:23:03,120
that has changed.

2847
01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:06,120
Yeah, I would appreciate that.

2848
01:23:06,156 --> 01:23:06,824
Yeah. No problem.

2849
01:23:06,824 --> 01:23:07,858
Okay. I

2850
01:23:07,858 --> 01:23:08,992
m just pondering that

2851
01:23:08,992 --> 01:23:10,595
myself right now. That was that

2852
01:23:10,595 --> 01:23:12,130
was a good question. Uh, for

2853
01:23:12,130 --> 01:23:14,980
sure. Anybody else have any

2854
01:23:14,980 --> 01:23:14,332
other questions?

2855
01:23:14,332 --> 01:23:15,233
I can

2856
01:23:15,233 --> 01:23:17,535
t see Stu over there.

2857
01:23:17,535 --> 01:23:19,136
Stu. You good? Okay.

2858
01:23:19,136 --> 01:23:20,905
All right. With that, do we

2859
01:23:20,905 --> 01:23:21,939
have any public comment for

2860
01:23:21,939 --> 01:23:23,740
public comment?

2861
01:23:23,740 --> 01:23:24,876
We do not have any public

2862
01:23:24,876 --> 01:23:26,845
comment for public comment.

2863
01:23:26,845 --> 01:23:28,813
All right. With that, uh, any

2864
01:23:28,813 --> 01:23:30,813
discussion or motion.

2865
01:23:31,160 --> 01:23:31,683
Moved to approval?

2866
01:23:31,683 --> 01:23:32,117
All right, let

2867
01:23:32,117 --> 01:23:34,117
s.

2868
01:23:43,595 --> 01:23:44,697
Vote.

2869
01:23:44,697 --> 01:23:46,532
All right. With that, the

2870
01:23:46,532 --> 01:23:46,702
motion passes five zero. Let

2871
01:23:46,702 --> 01:23:48,367
s

2872
01:23:48,367 --> 01:23:49,969
move on to number 16. Adopt

2873
01:23:49,969 --> 01:23:51,969
resolution setting recommended

2874
01:23:52,371 --> 01:23:54,674
fees for chapel memories and

2875
01:23:54,674 --> 01:23:56,209
approval. Name change at the

2876
01:23:56,209 --> 01:23:57,877
request of subcommittee members

2877
01:23:57,877 --> 01:23:58,944
Schwenk and Stewart, if we can

2878
01:23:58,944 --> 01:24:02,150
please get a staff report from

2879
01:24:02,150 --> 01:24:03,717
MISS Erica Russo.

2880
01:24:03,717 --> 01:24:05,919
Sorry about that. Yes we can.

2881
01:24:05,919 --> 01:24:07,200
So many of you probably are

2882
01:24:07,200 --> 01:24:08,488
familiar with the Chapel of

2883
01:24:08,488 --> 01:24:09,890
Memories, which is located in

2884
01:24:09,890 --> 01:24:12,158
front of Sam Hicks Monument

2885
01:24:12,158 --> 01:24:14,194
Park and Temecula Valley

2886
01:24:14,194 --> 01:24:16,396
Museum. That chapel has been a

2887
01:24:16,396 --> 01:24:18,231
historical site in Temecula for

2888
01:24:18,231 --> 01:24:21,135
many, many years. It was also a

2889
01:24:21,135 --> 01:24:22,536
very popular wedding venue. Um,

2890
01:24:22,536 --> 01:24:23,671
previously, that wedding venue

2891
01:24:23,671 --> 01:24:24,905
was administered by a

2892
01:24:24,905 --> 01:24:26,774
partnership with the nonprofit

2893
01:24:26,774 --> 01:24:28,476
we had here in town a couple of

2894
01:24:28,476 --> 01:24:29,576
years ago. We no longer

2895
01:24:29,576 --> 01:24:31,345
continue that non-profit

2896
01:24:31,345 --> 01:24:32,947
partnership, and we had to do

2897
01:24:32,947 --> 01:24:33,147
some renovations to the chapel.

2898
01:24:33,147 --> 01:24:34,148
So we

2899
01:24:34,148 --> 01:24:36,148
ve completely renovated

2900
01:24:36,250 --> 01:24:37,919
the interior. Public works has

2901
01:24:37,919 --> 01:24:39,521
been super helpful in terms of

2902
01:24:39,521 --> 01:24:40,388
helping us just freshen

2903
01:24:40,388 --> 01:24:43,910
everything up so it looks

2904
01:24:43,910 --> 01:24:44,559
really beautiful inside. Here

2905
01:24:44,559 --> 01:24:45,894
you can see a couple of images,

2906
01:24:45,894 --> 01:24:47,629
the exterior on the left, and

2907
01:24:47,629 --> 01:24:49,264
then we have the interior there

2908
01:24:49,264 --> 01:24:50,498
in the lower right, as well as

2909
01:24:50,498 --> 01:24:51,733
a photo of the patio where we

2910
01:24:51,733 --> 01:24:53,768
have it set up like it would be

2911
01:24:53,768 --> 01:24:54,937
for wedding reception. So we

2912
01:24:54,937 --> 01:24:55,904
took it to the parks,

2913
01:24:55,904 --> 01:24:57,720
Recreation and Community

2914
01:24:57,720 --> 01:24:58,107
Services subcommittee a month

2915
01:24:58,107 --> 01:24:58,874
or so ago, and we

2916
01:24:58,874 --> 01:25:00,209
re proposing

2917
01:25:00,209 --> 01:25:00,576
a fee study or I

2918
01:25:00,576 --> 01:25:00,733
m sorry, we

2919
01:25:00,733 --> 01:25:01,744
re

2920
01:25:01,744 --> 01:25:03,479
proposing a fee schedule that

2921
01:25:03,479 --> 01:25:05,114
will enable us to reopen it for

2922
01:25:05,114 --> 01:25:07,514
bookings for weddings, memorial

2923
01:25:07,616 --> 01:25:09,418
services and small personal

2924
01:25:09,418 --> 01:25:11,190
events of that nature. The

2925
01:25:11,190 --> 01:25:12,689
inside capacity is only between

2926
01:25:12,689 --> 01:25:13,990
50 and 75 people, so this is

2927
01:25:13,990 --> 01:25:14,991
really intended for, you know,

2928
01:25:14,991 --> 01:25:17,391
a very small private

2929
01:25:17,427 --> 01:25:18,895
ceremonies. Next slide please.

2930
01:25:18,895 --> 01:25:20,330
Based on some research we did

2931
01:25:20,330 --> 01:25:22,650
on other comparable venues,

2932
01:25:22,650 --> 01:25:22,665
here are the proposed chapel

2933
01:25:22,665 --> 01:25:24,665
fees. We

2934
01:25:25,501 --> 01:25:27,236
re looking at. Um,

2935
01:25:27,236 --> 01:25:28,137
offering reservations with two

2936
01:25:28,137 --> 01:25:29,306
different tiers. We have

2937
01:25:29,306 --> 01:25:31,410
Temecula residents and then we

2938
01:25:31,410 --> 01:25:31,506
have non-residents. You can see

2939
01:25:31,506 --> 01:25:32,760
it

2940
01:25:32,760 --> 01:25:34,144
s a flat fee for the

2941
01:25:34,144 --> 01:25:35,879
reservation for three hours

2942
01:25:35,879 --> 01:25:37,314
max. Then you can rent

2943
01:25:37,314 --> 01:25:39,349
additional hours up to an eight

2944
01:25:39,349 --> 01:25:40,717
hour max. The patio and kitchen

2945
01:25:40,717 --> 01:25:41,952
are an add on fee. The kitchen

2946
01:25:41,952 --> 01:25:43,253
has been renovated so that it

2947
01:25:43,253 --> 01:25:43,921
functions as a caterers

2948
01:25:43,921 --> 01:25:44,388
kitchen. So if you

2949
01:25:44,388 --> 01:25:46,156
re bringing

2950
01:25:46,156 --> 01:25:47,291
in catered dishes for a wedding

2951
01:25:47,291 --> 01:25:47,458
reception or memorial, you

2952
01:25:47,458 --> 01:25:48,893
re

2953
01:25:48,893 --> 01:25:50,294
able to utilize it for that.

2954
01:25:50,294 --> 01:25:51,950
And then, like all of our city

2955
01:25:51,950 --> 01:25:51,462
facilities, if they

2956
01:25:51,462 --> 01:25:52,597
re rented,

2957
01:25:52,597 --> 01:25:54,232
we have a security deposit

2958
01:25:54,232 --> 01:25:56,300
which is refundable upon

2959
01:25:56,300 --> 01:25:58,136
completion of the rental.

2960
01:25:58,136 --> 01:25:59,237
Part of me, I believe we have a

2961
01:25:59,237 --> 01:26:00,771
brief announcement to make on

2962
01:26:00,771 --> 01:26:03,171
this item from Councilmember

2963
01:26:03,841 --> 01:26:04,910
Ron.

2964
01:26:04,910 --> 01:26:05,477
Oh yeah. So we

2965
01:26:05,477 --> 01:26:07,279
re doing

2966
01:26:07,279 --> 01:26:09,810
business in Old Town on the

2967
01:26:09,810 --> 01:26:10,916
private sector side. So I

2968
01:26:10,916 --> 01:26:11,616
believe I am conflicted out of

2969
01:26:11,616 --> 01:26:12,284
this item. So I

2970
01:26:12,284 --> 01:26:14,284
m going to

2971
01:26:14,386 --> 01:26:16,386
leave the dais.

2972
01:26:24,764 --> 01:26:25,831
But. Alrighty. Okay.

2973
01:26:25,831 --> 01:26:26,232
So, um, with that, we

2974
01:26:26,232 --> 01:26:27,466
re making

2975
01:26:27,466 --> 01:26:29,735
a slight departure from most of

2976
01:26:29,735 --> 01:26:31,700
our rental. Our fee policies

2977
01:26:31,700 --> 01:26:32,605
where we only permit

2978
01:26:32,605 --> 01:26:34,400
reservations six months in

2979
01:26:34,400 --> 01:26:35,241
advance for this because we

2980
01:26:35,241 --> 01:26:36,642
know that people planning a

2981
01:26:36,642 --> 01:26:36,909
wedding need a lot more lead

2982
01:26:36,909 --> 01:26:37,209
time. We

2983
01:26:37,209 --> 01:26:38,477
re allowing

2984
01:26:38,477 --> 01:26:39,145
reservations 12 months in

2985
01:26:39,145 --> 01:26:39,746
advance. It

2986
01:26:39,746 --> 01:26:40,914
s going to be

2987
01:26:40,914 --> 01:26:42,515
available to rent Wednesday

2988
01:26:42,515 --> 01:26:42,883
through Sunday. On Saturdays.

2989
01:26:42,883 --> 01:26:43,783
You won

2990
01:26:43,783 --> 01:26:45,485
t be able to rent it

2991
01:26:45,485 --> 01:26:45,785
earlier than 2 P.M., because

2992
01:26:45,785 --> 01:26:46,720
the farmer

2993
01:26:46,720 --> 01:26:47,587
s market is right

2994
01:26:47,587 --> 01:26:48,655
there, and we know that it

2995
01:26:48,655 --> 01:26:50,557
functionally, it will just be

2996
01:26:50,557 --> 01:26:52,192
impossible to navigate parking

2997
01:26:52,192 --> 01:26:53,590
at that point on a Saturday. If

2998
01:26:53,590 --> 01:26:53,693
any of you have been here for

2999
01:26:53,693 --> 01:26:53,893
Saturday morning farmer

3000
01:26:53,893 --> 01:26:54,761
s

3001
01:26:54,761 --> 01:26:54,961
markets, you know what that

3002
01:26:54,961 --> 01:26:56,961
s

3003
01:26:57,664 --> 01:26:58,532
like. Um, so that essentially

3004
01:26:58,532 --> 01:26:58,899
concludes my report. I

3005
01:26:58,899 --> 01:27:00,000
m open

3006
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:01,100
to any questions.

3007
01:27:01,100 --> 01:27:02,136
All right. Great. Thank you.

3008
01:27:02,136 --> 01:27:04,710
And it looks beautiful. Great

3009
01:27:04,710 --> 01:27:05,139
job to the team for putting

3010
01:27:05,139 --> 01:27:06,206
that all together. It looks

3011
01:27:06,206 --> 01:27:06,473
beautiful at the chapel.

3012
01:27:06,473 --> 01:27:07,708
Oh I

3013
01:27:07,708 --> 01:27:09,142
m sorry I did have one

3014
01:27:09,142 --> 01:27:11,111
other comment on that. We are

3015
01:27:11,111 --> 01:27:11,278
proposing a name change from

3016
01:27:11,278 --> 01:27:11,478
it

3017
01:27:11,478 --> 01:27:12,312
s it

3018
01:27:12,312 --> 01:27:12,913
s now called the

3019
01:27:12,913 --> 01:27:13,614
Temecula. I

3020
01:27:13,614 --> 01:27:15,183
m sorry. The chapel

3021
01:27:15,183 --> 01:27:16,351
of Memories. That name is

3022
01:27:16,351 --> 01:27:17,218
actually used by another chapel

3023
01:27:17,218 --> 01:27:19,220
in Orange County. And

3024
01:27:19,220 --> 01:27:20,788
additionally Chapel of Memories

3025
01:27:20,788 --> 01:27:22,423
really seems to imply primarily

3026
01:27:22,423 --> 01:27:22,757
memorial services. So we

3027
01:27:22,757 --> 01:27:24,625
d like

3028
01:27:24,625 --> 01:27:24,784
to change that name to. We

3029
01:27:24,784 --> 01:27:26,227
re

3030
01:27:26,227 --> 01:27:27,996
going with Old Town Temecula

3031
01:27:27,996 --> 01:27:29,497
Chapel, which kind of anchors

3032
01:27:29,497 --> 01:27:30,999
it a little more clearly in Old

3033
01:27:30,999 --> 01:27:31,265
Town and locates it, you know,

3034
01:27:31,265 --> 01:27:32,434
in people

3035
01:27:32,434 --> 01:27:34,603
s minds as an old

3036
01:27:34,603 --> 01:27:35,371
town facility. So with that, if

3037
01:27:35,371 --> 01:27:35,525
council supports it, we

3038
01:27:35,525 --> 01:27:36,638
re

3039
01:27:36,638 --> 01:27:37,806
recommending adoption of this

3040
01:27:37,806 --> 01:27:38,474
fee schedule and the name

3041
01:27:38,474 --> 01:27:38,974
change.

3042
01:27:38,974 --> 01:27:40,442
Okay.

3043
01:27:40,442 --> 01:27:42,344
Thank you very much. Thank you

3044
01:27:42,344 --> 01:27:45,944
Eric I appreciate that. So with

3045
01:27:46,882 --> 01:27:48,985
that, uh, council questions.

3046
01:27:48,985 --> 01:27:49,152
Just a comment. Okay.

3047
01:27:49,152 --> 01:27:49,519
We

3048
01:27:49,519 --> 01:27:49,719
re not there. We

3049
01:27:49,719 --> 01:27:50,720
re not

3050
01:27:50,720 --> 01:27:50,887
there just yet. Okay.

3051
01:27:50,887 --> 01:27:51,254
We

3052
01:27:51,254 --> 01:27:52,455
re getting.

3053
01:27:52,455 --> 01:27:54,455
There.

3054
01:27:54,624 --> 01:27:54,775
Any questions? Okay. Next let

3055
01:27:54,775 --> 01:27:55,925
s

3056
01:27:55,925 --> 01:27:58,161
go into public comments. Do we

3057
01:27:58,161 --> 01:28:01,761
have any okay. Now you MAY.

3058
01:28:02,980 --> 01:28:03,866
Go okay. No, this is this is,

3059
01:28:03,866 --> 01:28:05,368
uh, this is going to be a

3060
01:28:05,368 --> 01:28:08,438
really cool asset for the city

3061
01:28:08,438 --> 01:28:09,640
of Temecula. Um, because with

3062
01:28:09,640 --> 01:28:12,400
wedding venues being so

3063
01:28:12,743 --> 01:28:15,143
expensive everywhere, um, this

3064
01:28:15,312 --> 01:28:18,181
allows for a small, intimate

3065
01:28:18,181 --> 01:28:21,181
little wedding that people can

3066
01:28:21,418 --> 01:28:23,720
afford. And so I really am

3067
01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:25,723
supportive of this. And I like

3068
01:28:25,723 --> 01:28:27,859
the the name change, too,

3069
01:28:27,859 --> 01:28:28,793
because it really does stay

3070
01:28:28,793 --> 01:28:30,610
where exactly it

3071
01:28:30,610 --> 01:28:30,215
s at. No one

3072
01:28:30,215 --> 01:28:32,290
s

3073
01:28:32,290 --> 01:28:35,629
going to be confused where old

3074
01:28:35,833 --> 01:28:36,467
Town Temecula Chapel is at. So

3075
01:28:36,467 --> 01:28:36,734
yeah. No, it

3076
01:28:36,734 --> 01:28:37,468
s it

3077
01:28:37,468 --> 01:28:38,803
s a really,

3078
01:28:38,803 --> 01:28:40,271
really cool facility.

3079
01:28:40,271 --> 01:28:40,471
Do we want to add the hallmark

3080
01:28:40,471 --> 01:28:42,207
name.

3081
01:28:42,207 --> 01:28:44,420
Onto it? No, no. Okay. Just

3082
01:28:44,420 --> 01:28:46,420
checking.

3083
01:28:46,845 --> 01:28:48,947
Any anything else on my left?

3084
01:28:48,947 --> 01:28:50,148
No. Okay. Uh, with that.

3085
01:28:50,148 --> 01:28:50,682

Okay.

Second, second.

3089
01:28:52,217 --> 01:28:54,217
