There will be subgrade and aggregate base preparation and compaction for the widening sections of the asphalt concrete pavement. 6. Noise a. Existing noise level will increase due to equipment operation during construction period only. The presence of the housing units close to the protect site along the south side of Highland will not greatly be affected due to the presence of a 6 ft. block wall. In arty rate it can be mitigated by the installation of noise attenuators and the restriction of hours of operation of the equipment. 13. Transportation/Circulation a,ddf During construction operation, alteration of the present patterns of vehicular and pedestrian circulation will be needed, and therefore traffic on surrounding streets near the project perimeter will increase. Any possibility of traffic hazards to motor vehicles, 61cyc11st or pedestrians during construction can be mitigated by the proper use of roadway warning and detour signs.

FROM: BRUCE ZEINSA, CHIEF OF POLICE SUAJECT: ASSET SEIZURE BRPSRDITURE REQUNST Funds in the asset seizure account are the result of legal proceedings against assets of narcotics offenders. There is currently $210,261 in this account. Health and Safety Code 11489 describes use of these funds and places only two limits on how they can be spent, 1. They must be used "exclusively to support the law enforcement...eftorts of those agencies". 2. The money "shall not supplant any state or local funds that would [otherwise] be ^ade available" to the agency. The Rancho Cucamonga Police Department would like to purchase the following Items utilizing funds from the Asset Seizure Account. As per Section 11489 of the Health and Safety Code, these items will be used exclusively to support the law enforcement efforts of the department. These expenditures are nct supplanting any city funds that would ethe rwlse be made available. PURCHASE OP ADDITIONAL BICYCLBS AAD BQUIPNBNT RECOMMNNDATION: Staff recommends that the City Council approve the expenditure of not more than $10,000 for the following, Six (6) fully equipped bicycles for use by the Rancho Cucamonga Police Department Bicycle Enforcement Team. Uniforms and equipment to outfit seven (71 additional bicycle patrol members, A battery charging station for bicycle lights. Funds to provide for ongoing maintenance of BACKGROUND: Since it's inception Sn May of 1992, The Bicycle Enforcement Team has had a positive effect in Rancho Cucamonga. The feedback from citizens of the community has been overwhelming. There are areas of the city that ere in need of the services of the bicycle patrol and their specialized style of Solution Oriented Policing. Shopping Centers, Apartment Complexes and other areas not readily accessible to automobiles can benefit Prom the presence of Lh1s unit. Tha Follce Department, unfortunately, has more volunteers than bicycles. We currently have inquiries from three (3) regular oftlcere and Pour (~) reserves that wfah to participate in the bicycle petrol. The requested bicycles come equipped with ell the necessary items to function es pert of the Bicycle Enforcement Tesm. All items of equipment purchased for the of Lacers will belong to the Bicycle Enforcement Team with the exception of the bicycle riding shorts. Each olf icer will be reepcnmible for purchasing a eompetlbla holster to fit hie individual weapon as well ea a shirt to be worn while on petrol. Tha purchase of the battery charging station will allow the batteries to be charged in approximately four hours time. It will also increame the service life of the batteries, thereby increaeing the service life of the lighting systems. When the originsl bicycles were purchased funds were not eiloceted for ongoing meintenence end repairs. The requested 92,000 will fund these expenses for the original bicycles end the new additions. PURCHASH 08 NANO HHLD ALCOHOL BRHATH THST OBVICH9 RECONMHNDATIOR: Stetf recommends that the City Council approve the expenditure of not more than 93000.00 from the Aaeet 5eizu:~e Account for the purchase of four (~) Alco-Sensor IV hand held breath teat devices. BACKGROVFID: The Rancho Cucamonga Police Department hma en aggressive program 1n plnce 20 comber the cries of drunk driving. The department trains officers to identily potential under the influence drivers. 51 We also participate in monthly Against Drunk Drf ving (A.D.D.) task force operations and operate a monthly DrlVing Under the Influence (D.U.I.) check polnta fn the city. Every contact with a potential violator starts with the officer mak3 ng decisions based on objective symptoms of the SndlVidual such as speech, appearance, demeanor etc.. Zf, attar these initial observations the officer feels it is warranted he then asks the driver to perform certain field sobriety testa. These teats a.yaSst the officer in making a decision on whether or not to make an arrest. The testa regal re subjective eoncluslors on the part of the officer ea to the degree of intoxication and can sometimes be confusing if a subject is under the lnf luence of drugs or a combination of drugs and eleohol. The Alco-Sensor IV provides en accurate, simple end economical method of determining a subject's blood alcohol level. These devices have proven to be invaluable fn determining 1f a auepect is under the lntluence of alcohol end the degree of intoxication. They oleo asslat !n determining if the evbjecta symptoms might be caused by aubatences other then alcohol. COMPUTBR BQUIPMENT RECOMMENDATION: Recommend that the City Council authorize the purchase of computer equipment that includes four comput ere with terminals and software along with two laser printers and peripherals to network the hardware, not to exceed $.14,500.00. BACKGROUND: The Rancho Cucamonga Police Department responds to more calla for service end takes more reports then any other Sheriff's Station in Sen Bernardino County, Even eo, the transcrlptlon of dictated reports fe still 6efng done by typewriter. Over the pest several yeera our clerical alai! has been unable to keep up with the tranacrlptlon demands placed upon them by the patrol end detective dfVislona. This has necessitated curtailing dictation of reports end requiring of flcers to handwrite complete criminal or treff is reports in many instances for extended periods of time. Hev7ng to do this hss caused considerable delays Sn the processing of reports to get criminal compleinta or to the investigation division to conduct follow-up on crimes. Several opt3one exist. The first option would be to buy a VAE/Digital system through the County of Sen Bernardino.

The undergrounding pro,{ect must be at least 600 feet 1n length. The City of Rancho Cucanronga receives about f200,000 per year from SCE as our undergrounding allotment. Currently we have about f400,000 available from Rule 20 funds. At a regular meeting on November 4, 1981, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 81-175 establishing a prioritized list of six potential projects for implementation of an active underground program (Resolution attached). Archibald Avenue from Foothill Boulevard to Base Line Road vas completed in 1984 along with portions of Base Line Road east and west of Archibald Avenue• During that era a portion of Base Line Road from Hermosa Avenue to 1~ CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT ESTABLISHMENT OF UNDERGROUND UTILITY DISTRICT N0. 4 ALON6 BASE LINE ROAD FROM ARCHIBALD AVENUE TO HERMOSA AYENUE August 10, 1993 Page 2 Ramona Avenue was completed by a developer. These two construction protects left a 1,200 foot portion of Base Line Road remaining overhead. This proposed Underground Utility District would remove the overhead lines in this gap. This 0lstrict will grant powers to Edison to enter onto private properties to make necessary changes or additions to service customers during the underground activities and charge their actions to the Rule 20A funding mechanism. SCE and City Staff have discussed undergrounding these utility lines on Base Line Road. Since this will complete the undergraunding from Archibald Avenue to Hermosa Avenue, both SCE and the City staff fees this is a good protect. Also, the Public Norks Subcommittee reviewed and recommended this protect. This protect on Base Line Road has the minimal overhead services (21, and an underground conduit naw exists to facilitate the work. Presently, there are Lvro structures on the south side of Base Line Road that maintain overhead service. One is an existing "Day Care" center and the other is a "rental" residential structure. Both are partially awned and managed by Mr. Bob Sorrells of Sorrels Insurance Agency, at 8038 Archibald Avenue 1n Rancho Cucamonga. Even though one of these properties is a rental and the other is a comaerctal "Day Care it 1s recommended that the conversion costs, estimated to cost f300 for the rental house and 5155, 6e paid for by the City because the costs are so small.

Brad Buller, City Planner, stated the Development Code prohibits [brae monument signs and proper legal findings could not be made to support a variance requevt. He said the Development Code would need to be amended in order to add a third sign. Chairman McNiel stated he was rvar. favor of amending tRe code. Commissioner Valleite Eelt ii ie important to have three monument eigne for thla project because she did not chink the publ ie knows what ie in the center. She thought there may ba other centers with the same situation. Chairman NeNiel stated he tlitl not dieagru with the approach but he did not want to change tRe sign ordinance without Looking into the issue more thoroughly. Commissioner Ch itlen observed that CRe buelnus will 6e located Lnnedlaiely atlj aeent to San Bernardino Road and will have two wall signs. commissioner Val lasts felt that wall eLgne would not attract enough attention a• people drive by on San Bernardino Road. Sha did not feel every commercial development should he permitted to have three monument eigne, but she felt there ors eituatlons where ii is appropriate, psrticularly when bordered by three etreeta. She Eelt Che ndtlit tonal •ignage would help to nttract consumers to eha local 6u sineaeee. Hr. Buller said thnt etaEf would work with the appllcent and center menngament.

(Related Pile: CUP 93-19.) BACxGROUND: At it's meeting on June 9, 1993, the Commission considered a request from the applicant to add health clubs a9 a conditional use Sn the Thomas Winery Plaza. The applicant proposns to lease the apace vacated by Irvine Ranch Mnrkat and establish a health club (see letter Cram the applicant and the related F.tntf Repart for Conditional Uae Permit 93-19 ). Tha Comission determined that this type of land use can 6e an appropriate one in the Speeielty Commercial District. The Commission directed the applicant to submit an application for an amendment to the Specific Plen ao that staff can further analyse the merits of adding the proposed land use. On June 15, 1993, the City received both the Specific Plan Amendment and Conditional Uee Permit applications. Staff took this opportunity to expand the amendment application to include the addition of Pharmacies under t0 ,000 square feet to the Community Commercial District. ANALYSIS• A. Propoaefl Amendments Add "Health and Athletic Gyms and Weight Reducing Clinics" to the Specialty Co®ercial District - Subareas 1, 2, end 3. In cevlewinq the land uses within the Speeielty Commercial District, staff found Chet [hs category oC Music, Danes, and Martial Arts Studios is conditionally permitted while the category o[ Heal[A and Athletic Gyms and Reducing Clinics is noC allowed. In comparing these two land use categories, atef[ found that Chair purpose is similar in nature, Chat is, physical fitness. Their operational cheracterlstics are also similar in that they: 11 involve physical activity, and 21 haw similar peak hears which is early morning, late afternoon, evenings, and weekends. Stott believes that adding this lend use category es a conditional use will broaden the range of businaeses in the Specialty Cotmlercial DSStrict. a ~ i, PLANNING CON1iISSI0N STAFF REPORT FSPA 93-01 - CARDI O-FIT July 28, 1993 Page 2 Add "Pharmacies with or without specialty retail under 10,000 square Eeet" to the community Commercial District - Subareas 1, 2, and 3. Thla proposed amendment ±s a housekeeping item. It came about becau9e of a request from a pharmacy, with under 10,000 square feet, who would like to locate in the Foothill Village which Ss zoned Community Commercial. When the Specific Plan was first adopted in September of 1987, Drug Stores and Pharmncies were permitted in the Community Commercial District but not in the Specialty Commercial Oietrici. This land use category allows busineeaes that range from small pharmacies to large national chain drug stores. In April of 1990, this category wee amended by creating two sub-categorise: Drug Stores and Pharmnclee over 10,000 square feet and Pharmacies, with or without specialty retail, under 10,000 square feet. The avb-category of Pharmacies under 10,000 square feet was then ndded to the Specialty Commercial District as a conditional use with the intent of broadening the range of uaea in ehle district. Stuff believes that ii was not the intent to reatrici the aural ler pharmacies in a Community Commercial District. Further, this sub-category Se shown ae permitted in Subarea 4 (see exhibit "C"1. Therefore, stuff recommends that the sub-category of Pharmacies, with or without specialty retail, under 10,000 aquas feet be added beck to the community Commercial District ae a permitted use. B. Environmental Aeaeasment: The proposed amendment of adding land uaea to the Specific Plnn is not subject io environmental asaesement as staff determined that Lt ie not a "project" since the action will no! result in a physics! change In the environment directly or ultimately. Refer to Public Resources Code Section 21065 (CSQA Section 15378). CORRESPONDENCE: This item has been advertised ae a public hearing Sn the Inland Valley Daily Bulletin newspaper.

Fulwood, Deputy City Manager SUBJECT: ANTI-GRAFFITI TASK FORCE RECOMMENDATTON Cities are experiencing a blight. This blight -- graffiti -- is an increasing world-wide social phenomenon. Most of the graffiti that is occurring in Rancho Cucamonga is the work of "vandals" -very little is gang related. Vandals are generally not affiliated with gangs and vandalize independently. it is a form of social vandalism that has replaced more traditional forms of vandalism. But their graffiti is no less offensive and ugly. In response to this growing problem, the City of Rancho Cucamonga has increased its efforts in the war on graffiti to preserve the beauty of our community. Rancho Cucamonga's City Council has made graffiti eradication a priority through the implementation and/or support of several programs. The Ciry attempts to remove al] reported graffiti from public property as quickly as possible. This s done by the Public Works Division. If the graffiti is on private property, the Code Enforcement Division will notify the property owner that graffiti removal is the property owner's responsibility. It is hoped that the owner will remove the graffiti within 24 - 48 hours. However, if the problem is not corrected in a timely manner, the City will begin an abatement process and/or prosecution. It is hoped that home and business owners will recognize the importance of keeping graffiti off their properties. In the past, Rancho's City Council has implemented a "spray can" ordinance which makes it illegal for businesses to sell certain aerosol paint containers to persons under 18 years of age. The businesses are required to post signs warning of the punishment for vandalizing property with spray paint. They are further required to secure certain spray cans to prevent theft. Additionally, the City Council recently implemented an Anti-Graffiti Task Force to increase its efforts in this war on graffiti. The City is currently working with the Police Department and resident groups to step up surveillance efforts in the community. The City recognizes that education plays an important part in the effort against graffiti and Ranc}to Cucamonga is exploring the possibility of setting up an educational program in the schools to address the problem. 1~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation Page 2 August 18, 1993 The City Council has supported a grass roots movement to eliminate graffiti. This program, called "Adopt-A-Wall;' is made up of volunteers from the community who "adopt-a-wall" and keep it free from graffiti. The City also supports the WeTip Reward Program. If a resident or business owner knows someone who is defacing property with graffiti, they can call atoll-free number, report the person or persons and retain their anonymity. For arrests leading to conviction, there aze rewazds available. Graffiti is an extremely serious problem facing all communities today. It is going to take a combined effort by the residents, business community, educational community, and local government to combat the prevalence of graffiti. As a summary, the following list reFlects some anti-graffiti measures the City has taken in the past in its waz against graffiti: • Adopt-A-Wall Program/Anti-Graffiti Program - Volunteers exploring removing graffiti from private property/business parks • Provided approximately 18,000 gallons of recycled county paint (no charge to the City) for graffiti removal • Ordinance regulating the sale of spray paint to minors (1989) • Ordinance requiring graffiti to be removed from private property in a timely manner (1989) • Implemented an administrative policy to remove gang and obscene graffiti within 24 hours of reporting • WeTip participation • Implemented a 24 hour graffiti hotline for reporting graffiti • Explored numerous graffiti abatement products on the market, i.e., graffiti melt, write off, etc. • [Itilized work referrals for graffiti removal 141 Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 3 • At the request and consent of parents, the City has utilized vandals to remove graffiti as an educational experience • WeTip Reward Program • Tlember of the National Graffiti Information Network • Minutes of the Anti-Graffiti Task Force established by the City Council (see Exhibit "D") • Public awareness articles in The Grapevine • Community workshops • City Council and staff members have participated in graffit, paint-out • Neightarhood Watch Programs • Park Watch Programs • Anti-graffiti community oriented policing program FIISTORICAL OVERVIE The following historical overview was presented in the National Graffiti Information Network, January/February 1993 issue: Graffiti markings by definition have been around for centuries as man has endeavored to make his mark, to be recognized and to communicate a message that may be seen in its day or by a traveler of a future day. For law enforcement, this menacing visual blight is often resource which identified who, where, why and how. Though street gang graffiti is constant and growing, it is not the growing concern as that of the tagging movement. Taggers, unlike street gangs, have no territory; they strive for style, quantity of tags and the difficulty of the target. Taggers are usually linked or classified as social gangs, inasmuch as they are predominantly singular in their motive, which is to get their mark up and have it seen or recognized. 142 Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August ]8, 1993 Page 4 Tagging began as an offshoot of gang activity and took shape in the late 60's in and around New York City. In 1971, an interview with 'TAKI 183;' a previously unknown writer, gave way for him to instant fame and determined the audience that would guarantee fame to every new and upcoming writer. With each exposure through the print media, new writers seeking fame and recognition surfaced and the movement was born. Skirmishes with New York's Mayor Lindsay in 1972 further fed the movement as New York's youth challenged the Mayor's authority and his threats to bring an end to grafriti. After an agreed blackout of several years, New York Times Magazine made news in 1980 when they interviewed 'NE," T-Kid" and "Seen" and from this point on the movement has expanded exponentially. In 1981 Mayor Koch introduced the first one million dollar plus program and the New York City writers took up the Mayor's challenge. In December 1981, Mayor Koch approved a 22 million dollar expenditure to fence and secure MTA trains, which was challenged by writers who moved their attzcks to the inside of the trans instead. In the mid-1980s, Dave Gunn was appointed General manager of New York's MTA, and his policy on "zero" tolerance and a conversion to stainless steel train coaches stymied the local writers. Meanwhile, on the West Coast and in Los Angeles, the 1984 Olympics went on without a hitch and the "City of Angels" was as clean as it's ever been. However, by late 1985 and early 1986, the City began seeing a stylized form of wall art similar to that of the New York style which early observers called balloon art or bombing. By 1987, khe more colorful and detailed "pieces"(short for masterpiece) had given introduction to a quicker, less detailed style, now expressed as "tagging." From 1987 to 1992, Los Angeles experienced a 1000°h, increase in taggers with estimates greater than 5,000 by this time. Unlike cultural gangs that only mark the territory they wish to claim, the social movement known as tagging expresses their desire as "all rity;' which means that their only limitation is transportation. 1~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, ]993 Page 5 The tagger, if prolific, may tag three to five days or evenings a week, and he or she may tag fifty or more structures per shift. Since style is important, the writer will develop a unique personal signature that is as exclusive as his own handwritten name and will usually connect the letters so that the spray paint valve is depressed only once to spell his entire tag name; this is referred to as can or valve control and as a derogatory term. Those who have little can control are referred to as a 'Toy" (a beginner). The tagger belongs to a group of two or three on up to 100 or more, and refers to his team as a "set;' "aew" or "posse." The name of the writer and/or his "aew" may be displayed and the crew name is most often abbreviated as a three-digit acronym. A crew will want to secure a popular established acronym, like TKD, UPS, ATC, USC, STP or another initial combination that represents two or more meanings (theirs and society's, i.e., STP, Setting the Pace). Incorporating numbers in the acronym name is popular as in D2D (Down to Destroy) or J4F (Just For Fun). Striving for fame and recognition the evolution toward permanence has taken many writers into the use of glass scribers and other homemade devices that are more difficult to remove, often increasing cost due to the replacement of the damaged component. Cost estimates to remove unwanted graffiti or replace damaged building components exceeds a billion per year and this cost is increasing. Moving into the 1990s, the presence of graffiti glorification by the media, graffiti in advertising and graffiti designer products lead the way as the major contributing influence for increases in this form of vandalism. The question posted by the media and the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, is, "Is it art or graffiti?" The answer is, "Without permission, it's vandalism!" Trends in Vandalism Approaching another year's end (1992), progress in vandalism remediation and control has identified only a few success stories, while most communities across the country and internationally have reported both increases and expensive variations in the graffiti movement as we know it. 1~ Anti-G.-~ffiti Task Force Recommendation Augus: i8, 1993 Page 6 On the rise has been the use of homemade marking devices. Some of these implements of destruction include the ink, paint or dye applicator variety, which are accessible in any trash dumpster (the applicator) and, combined with paint, ink pad ink, shoe polish or even grape juice concentrate, can rival any store-bought device. Challenged by restricted accesses, product cost and the desire to be creative;'writers" (the graffiti artists) have adopted alternative accesses, v,•hile honing their skill using deices custom formed to the canvas (your wall or building component) of their ci~oi~:e. Design variation go from a crude deodorant roll-on container stuffed with cotton or a cotton sock, to cut and formed felt tips and/or chemical resistant sponges which hold a supply of ink, while providing flow and contour control over the surface being written on. Using a "Brut" deodorant stick, the "writer" can obtain a smooth 1-3/4" marking width and, if caught, very few trained police officers will know to look at a writer's possessions with such scrutiny. It has been my experience that the average household contains a variety of devices that lend themselves to the device creativity of a challenged vandal. Virtually any container that will reservoir a liquid can be modified to restrict the flow of a commercial or blended mixture which is often present in the home or on the street environment. To a field investigator, homemade markers are more easily identified by their noncommercial width, by their viscosity wet (more prone to dripping or an uneven flow) and by their sensitivity to nonconventional solvents. Walls that are very porous and in areas where the writer is seeking a larger canvas, will usually stay with an aerosol type of device (commercial or modified), leaving the smoother, less porous walls and smaller tags to the use of a nonconventional device. Aerosol spray is the means of choice by those writers who favor quality over quantity and clearly Krylon is the spray of choice. This honor and distinction originally evolved out of price and color availability, but has since become a choice of symbolic status and recognition. One variation, which is in common to a percentage of those who spray paint walls, is the use of spray paints that contain certain addictive or euphoric solvents and this may be an added consideration when buying or "racking" (stealing) the aerosol spray paint of choice. 1~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 7 Of greater monetary concerns in new trends, is the movement from the use of pigmented paints or dyes into glass etching, which now may contribute to more than 10% of the total reoccurring areas vandalized by "writers." Although most devices are disguised to look like a pen {with an inserted carbide tip), many are no more than a sharp metal object, a min, steel wool or even a sharp rock will do. Once etched or scribed, a window must be replaced to remove vandal's scar. When vandals were interviewed, the "writers" who scribe on glass were aware of the glass value and several indicated that large panels of glass were the best target since the replacement cost would deter a quick recovery, permitting a longer recognition time for their effort. Calculating the cost of rernediation, this variation in vandalism may cost property owners several hundred dollars in areas that under paint-out conditions would have equaled only $10 to $20. Moving from glass to smooth metal finished, we have also experienced reported increases in similar etching on elevator doors, street signs and on automobiles. To be considered is which surface will offer the longest peer recognition prior to repair or removal, then the property owner must accept the fact that most hard-core vandals are already aware of the same considerations. An elevator door may exceed the replacement cost of glass and all of this reinforces the community and municipal need to require personal or behavioral accountability for those who ignore the vandalism laws. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Formation On December 16, 1992, in response to the growing graffiti problem, the Law Enforcement Subcommittee (Mayor, Dennis Stout and Mayor Pro Tem, Chuck Buquet) requested that the City increase its efforts in the war on graffiti by creating an Anti-Graffiti Task Force. The recommended life of the Task Force was four months from their first meeting after appointment. This four month period was projected to provide sufficient time to develop and recommend any enhancement to Rancho's existing Anti-Graffiti Program. The Task Force was to include members from the City Council, Commissions, Chamber of Commerce, Business Community, School Districts and General Community. A suggested list of possible topics for discussion by the Task Force included: Understanding current graffiti problem 1~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 8 • Review curro_nt program and resources and develop new strategies • Identify ways to combat graffiti • Identify community resources • Review enforcement efforts and legal provisions • Review existing ordinance and recommend revisions of same • Graffiti removal or, private property • Enforcement of spray can ordinance On January 6, 1993, City Council approved the Law Enforcement Subcommittee's recommendation to form an Anti-Graffiti Task Force. The Anti-Graffiti Task Force's purpose and mission was to recommend a program to eliminate or control graffiti throughout the City The Task Force was programmed to complete its task within a four month period. Task Force Recommendation The Anti-Graffiti Task Force has included a proposed Anti-Graffiti Ordinance (see Iixhibit "A") as part of its recommendation package. The preamble reflects the Task Force's viewpoint on graffiti. '"fhe City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga hereby specifically finds that graffiti on public and private properties is an immediate and serious threat to the safety and welfare of the community. Furthermore, graffiti encourages gang and other criminal activities thereby threatening the safety of citizens of the City. Additionally, both public and private properties are experiencing a dramatic increase in graffiti which is costly to remove and creates a negative image of the City of Rancho Cucamonga. Graffiti is a blighting factor which not only depreciates the value of such property that has been the target of such vandalism, but also depreciates the value of the adjacent and surrounding properties so as to create a negative impact upon the entire City. 147 Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 78, 1993 Page 9 State law authorizes the City, under certain circumstances, to provide for the removal of graffiti and other inscribed materials from private as well as public property. The Council finds and determines that graffiti is obnoxious and a public nuisance and unless the City causes it to be removed from public and private property, it tends to remain. Other properties then become the target of graffiti with the result that entire neighborhoods are affected and become less desirable places in which to be. It is the purpose and intent of the City Council, through the adoption of this Chapter, to provide additional enforcement tools to protect public and private property from acts of vandalism and defacement, including the application of graffiti on privately and publicly owned walls and structures. Such acts are inimical to and destructive of the rights and values of private property owners as well as the total community. It is the further intent of the City Council, through the adoption of this Chapter, to provide notice to all of those who disregard the property rights of others, that the law enforcement agencies of the City, the Sheriff's Department and the District Attorney's office, will strictly enforce the law and vigorously prosecute those persons engaging in the defacement of public and private properties." The Task Force's recommendation should be implemented in four phases. This would provide sufficient time to implement the more complicated time and resource consuming recommendation. Additionally, this would allow sufficient time to abandon those recommendations that cannot be implemented because of legal and legislative limitations, while providing time for impacted agencies to respond. The following recommendations are being provided for City Council consideration. City Council has the option of modifying, deleting or adding options. Additionally, the recommendations per phase is subject to City Council approval. (see Exhibit "B") Phase One Recommendation Applicable agencies should place strategically located anti-graffiti signs alerting people to We-Tip hot line telephone numbeq Sheriff's Department telephone number and the Anti-Graffiti hotline telephone number. 2. The City should keep abreast of technology for the removal and prevention of graffiti. 1~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August ]8, ]993 Page 10 3. The City should retain a policy to remove graffiti within 48 hours of happening. 4. Limit the paint color used on walls within the City to three basic colors. This will enable the City to react quicker and reduce the number of paint colors it would have to retain. 5. Develop a training program for teachers and parents on how to recognize a tagger. The Police Department may be able to implement training workshops. 6. Develop a series of televised town hall meetings featuring the Cit}' Mayors of the Inland Valley. The cities' Cable Television Companies and Daily Bulletin would have to work together to implement this program. 7. T?:e Chamber and City should work together to develop an educational and informational program to inform applicable retailers about the City's Anti- Graffiti Ordinance and the associated problem with vandals. 8. The City should develop and encourage neighborhoods, schools, businesses, and park watch programs. 9. Rancho Cucamonga should adopt the proposed new municipal ordinance which is stronger than the current Anti-Graffiti Ordinance. Additionally, the proposed ordinance addresses issues applicable to today's vandalism problems. The proposed ordinance deals with timely issues as follows: • Unlawful to apply graffiti • Possession of graffiti devices and scribbing devices by minors prohibited • Possession of graffiti devices prohibited is designated public places • Accessibility to graffiti devices rewards • Reimbursement of cellular phone costs Penalties and civic liability of parents • Graffiti removal provisions 1~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 1$ 1993 Page 11 Right of entry on private property The Task Force strongly recommends that the City council adopt the proposed ordinance as recommended by the Task Force and implement the same as the back bone of the recommendation package. The proposed ordinance would provide the City with a more efficient and effective tool to deal with the problem of vandalism. 10. Schools and the City should work towazd implementing an Adopt-A-School Program. This action will discourage vandalism on school sites. 11. The Cify should send thank you post cards to people who report graffiri to the City. This will encourage community particpation in this war against graffiti. 12. The Task Force should meet at the end of each of the four phases to report back to the City Council on the progress of the Program. This will ensure that the program 's progressing as intended. 13. Parente and/or guardians should pay for the damage that was done by their children. This should discourage vandals as well as encourage parental discipline. 14. The City should encourage more citizen patrol participation and provide more vehicles to assist in patrolling and surveillance. This should discourage vandalism within the business, education and general communities. I5. Graffiti forbidden signs should be posted on business and school properties. This will assist law enforcement to enforce no vandalism on private and school properties. Phase one recommendation would begin on September 1, ]993 and end on November 30, 1993. Phase Two Recommendation The applicable agencies should implement an Adopt-A-Business Program. This program would be similar to the Adopt-A-Wall Prugram. The program should discourage vandals since graffiti will be removed in a rimely basis. 2. Wcrk with and support the school districts with implementing their educational code which states the appropriate protocol for the suppression of graffiti on campus. 150 Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 12 3. School districts, the City and WeTip should work together in alerting students to the WeTip Hotline Program. This would include installing WeTip signs on campus. 4. Students caught vandalizing schools or other properties will be required to remove graffiti from said facility under supervision of their parents. Staff is reviewing the legality of implementing such a program. 5. City should encourage and support any Anti-Graffiti Contest and Programs implemented by the schools or community. 6. The City should work with County Probation to explore the possibility of implementing ayouth-board-type program to work with vandals and their parents. Phase two programs would commenrn on December 1, ]993 and end by February 28, 1994. Phase Three Recommendation 1. Research possibility of coordinating Inland Valley wide graffiti paint-out headed by apprehended offenders and their parents. 2. Rancho Cucamonga should take an active role to oppose any actions that glorify vandals. This would include discouraging printing of posters, signs and clothing that glorifies graffiti. 3. The City and schools should work together to explore the possibility of developing a challenge risk rope co+irse. This program will empower students to bemme more self-reliant. The details of this rope course and its curriculum will be forthcoming. It will be directed to the fifth and sixth grades. 4. The City should develop a Green Ribbon (Anti-Graffiti) Week. This would be similar to Red Ribbon Week. This should discourage vandalism and educate young people as to the negative effects that vandalism has on the community. Phase three programs would commence on March 1, ]994 and end by May 31, 1994. 151 Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 1$, 1993 Page 13 Phase Four Recommendation (The recommendations applicable to this phase are more controversial in nature. A number of the recommendations may not be possible because of legal, financial, and jurisdictional issues.) Therefore, the Subcommittee is requesting that City Council direct staff to research these recommendations to determine what would it take to implement programs if possible, or such legislative enactment of those applicable items. 1. Vandals names to be published in the newspaper under crime against our community. 2. Vandals records would remain open to be used if and when other offenses occurred. This would provide the lasv enforcement and judicial department the opportunity to further research problems on an ongoing basis. 3.

The Task Force hopes that City Council will feel comfortable with implementing these recommendations. The Task Force's main objective was to gather information from as many sources as possible. The following are examples of these informational wurces. • General public during Task Force meetings • Requested programs from other cities • Requested ordinances from other cities • Requested information from utility companies • Obtained recommendations from some schools • Reviewed National Graffiti lnformationa( Network newsletters • Considered staff's recommendations • Obtained input from the educational community • Obtained information from Adopt-A-Wall participants • Obtained information from vandals • Obtained information from the Police Department • Considered input from City Commissions • Considered input from judicial area of County of San Bernardino • Considered input from business community • Considered survey from Daily Bulletin The Daily Bulletin's Anti-Graffiti Survey was developed jointly by the Task Force and the Daily Bulletin. Its objective was to obtain any recommendation or thought that had been overlooked during the Task Force research. la/v Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page IS On June 13, 1993, the survey was published in the newspaper. Ninety-four responses were received by mail (see Exhibit "C"). Ttte Daily Bulletin had projected seventy to seventy-five responses. A copy of the questionnaire has been provided for your information (see attached). Additionally, the survey results are being provided in summary format for your consideration. A Compilation of Responses to the Anti-Graffiti Task Force's Survey Questions We received 94 responses by mail -The Daily Bulletin anticipated 70 to 75 responses. Rancho Cucamonga 19 Covina Upland 8 Chino Ontario 5 Montclair Pomona 3 Bloomington Fontana 3 Claremont Total of 44 Question #1 -- 100% oppose graffiti Question #2A -- Own children/Restriction/Make life miserable/Restitution/Make them clean up graffiti/Delay driver's license Question #2B -- A'eighbors' children/Call WeTip/Call Police/Report to parents Question #3 -- Answers in order of preference Parental financial responsibility 72 Parents supervise Clean-up 66 Community service 62 Drivers license postponed or revoked 58 Vandalism detention (like traffic school) 38 Jail 35 Other; • Mandatory parent/child course nn vandalism and community values • Confiscate bike or vehicle • Publicize successful prosecution • Work for the victim of their vandalism 1~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 16 • Lock up paint • Enforce curfews • Student patrols (adult supervision) • Vandal registry • Pvt vandals in chazge of clean-up • Aid seniors -yard work/paint house • Adopt-A-Tagger Question #4, 5, and 6 -- Little response beyond those listed in question #3 and the "Other" category. Consensus was stiffer penalties. One suggested service club involvement Question #7 -- 60% said they would pay; however, there was no specific amount suggested, nor how it would be assessed. Enthusiasm usually drops when you get to hard dollar figures. The 40`70 who said no one felt that the burden should fall on the taggers or their parents, they were already paying through taxes, through peopie's volunteer time and through having to look at the vandalism. In addition to the survey summary, a copy of four responses have been provided for your review. It is believed that these four responses will provide you with information on how others within the community view this issue. The Anti-Graffiti Survey Subcommittee has requested that the City Council consider the following recommendation per the survey findings: Schools may want to implement an on campus anti-graffiti student patrol Have vandals assist senior ctitizens with your clean-up, etc. Have schools include in their curriculum a section on community values and graffiti awareness. These four suggestions were nok considered by the other Task Force members since it was published after the Task Force had its final meeting. Therefore, if City Council believes that any one of the four items be included as part of the formal recommendation, that option is available. lalU Anti-Graffiti Task Forre Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 17 The Task Force members have volunteered to meet together at the end of each recommendation phase to report back to the City Council on the progress of the program, if City Council believes this is a worthwhile endeavor. Otherwise, the Anti-Graffiti Task Force would like to take the opportunity to thank the City Council for giving them the opportunity to serve the community by working together to develop a program to deal with vandals and their graffiti.

I teal the graffiti is only a symptom of the lack of direction in the liens o! our children. Yea - I do Peel graffiti needs to be stopped. It costa the homeowners alone vast amounts in lost property values. My children ere 6 and 9 and attend private school in Chino. , They ere somewhat sheltered, rather protected trom some of the 'roughness' a lot of kids encounter. My husband and I talk to our kiss about gangs, gratfiti, drugs end responsibility. we don't leave our kids elons. They're not perfect kids and i may have problems down the road, but we're investing a lot now in the hope it pays oft. Self-esteem ie also something we talk about. I may ba wrong, but I don't think that people who sneak around with spray paint oans have a high level of calf esteem. I! i founQ out that my boys were involved in graPtltl, their lives would change dramatically, if they weren't already busy with activities and interests, they'd get some Paat. I'd put them in some volunteer situations. I'd probably invest in family counseling - i would went to know why they had done it. And it goers without saying they'd be working off the coat of tho damage to whoever had Wean victimized. I think the punishment should flt the crime - gratfiti removal, community service, speaking to younger grease about why they did it - kids can ask some gut-wrenching questions. It might also give them a view of how others ses them. Repaying the victims through hard work should be abeolutaly required. Somehow the crime is closer to home once you get to know the people you've hurt. 174 DRIU BULLti.N ~ ..

Tha ability to dream and set goals can be started in kindergarten. If families aren't teaching it, schools need to. Tha kids need to learn to think long range - too many are 'today' oriented. They need to have hope for a batter life. Even the worst life in this country far exceeds what is going on on the other side of the world.

The meeting was called m order at 7:05 D.m. by Chairman Dennis L. Stout. Present were Tack Force Members: Dean Smodrers, Reed Montgomery, Eric Seiber, Don Mortis, Cynthia Shelley, Rance Clouse, Peter Norell, Laity Smui, Charles 1. Buquet 11, and Chairman Dennis L. Stout. Also present were: Jerry 8. Fulwood, Deputy City Manager, Rick Gomez, Community Development Director. Brad Buller, City Planner, Jce O'Neil. City Engineer, Bob Zettcrberg, Public Works Maintenance Manager; Sandy Ramirez, Resource Services Supervise; and tan Sutton, Deputy City Clerk. Absent were Task Force Members: Ann Punter, Wendy Vallette, iohn Poucr, and Woody Williams. r~r*~• B1. TASK FORC - .OA -AND OBI CTIVFS Mayor Stout stamd this Task Force was formed by the Rancho Cucamonga City Council, though mcy would be sharing Neir results with surtounding communities dust have expressed interest. He slated the Task Face was formed m try m come up with some innovative and challenging medmds to deal wish the issue, and that the Task Force was made up of a limited number of individuals in order 1o have a working group. Jerry Fulwood slated a packet has been provided to each Task Force member which outlines what oNer cities have done, m help them in their goal of creating a recommendation to the City Council. Councilmember Buqucl explained this was an opportunity to brainstorm wish people from different areas of expertise since their traditional approaches of dnaling with gratOti have not Men az successful as they had hoped. :~~e~r B2. PR(x'RAMS AND ACTIONS ALREADY IMPLEMENTED OR TAKEN Jery Fulwood went rover the hand-out shat lismd the City'S graffiti efforts that were started back in 19gS/89, and stated the Council has been very progressive in dealing with the issue of graffiti. Mayor Smut asked the Task Force members if they would sham what their different agencies do tit cenbat gm(Od 101 And-Graffiti Task Foree Minutes February 4, 1993 Page 2 Reed Montgomery stated the Ally Lama School District and other elementary school districts have a zero tolewnce policy for graffiti on school grounds, the same as they do for drags. When they catch Ne kids, they make Nc parrnts pay for removal. He felt aw of the key things for Them is m remove the graffiti before the kids acive for school, it defeats Ne propose of dre tuggers. He sated a good working rolatlonship with the Sheriff's Department and Ne parents has alw been a help fm them. Dean Smodaas stated he agreed with Recd Montgomery. He stated the Chaffey Ioint Union High School Board haz recendY adopted a graffiti policy, m addition m their vamlalism policy. He stated that on the whok the tuggers did not represent Ne feelings of dte majority of the students, and die student body does not like seeing their schools marked up. Whether they know who is doing it and would Nay tell on them, that is an individual matter. Councilmember Buquet stated the hard pan of dealing with this problem is that the people who are doing it do rat see it az anything odres than some form of fun and do na care it it k causing damage aM crcadng problems (a dre property owners. Their mentality is that it is a cool thing to do, and these kids are engaging in mac malicious damage than kids in the past did, Peter Nomll stated Nat Ne courts for 18 and older offenders do not get a lot of cases so he would suspect most offenders are 17 and younger, and explained whet the cumenl penaldes were. He stated dre Kiwanis Club in Upland has sponsored a Kiwanis Kids club at an elementary school, and the kids and adults together take care of the gmBid removal at that school, as well az place pea pressure on perpetrates drat attend that school. He thought this was an idea that could he adopted by other service clubs and sclwotc, Cynthia Shelley stated they currently have 65 members in the Adopt-A-Wall program, and they were gUdng ready m do their first City paim-out. She stated they are expkaing ways m address the liability question whkh keeps them from going on private prolwny to remove gmffid at businesses. Shc smted that several of the developers in the area am interested in working with them w they am looking at working that into Ne'v program. Rance Clouse smted graffiti removal is a real challenge in the business community because you are asking Nc victim of the crime to pay for the clean-up or any follow-up action if needed. This places a real burden on businesses. Ile stated iris forking Wsinesses to step back and look at this az a more tundamenml social issue, whew the business needs m reach out beyond itself and say that in order m address this problem they need m become more active in education and prevention programs. He smted Ne Chamber of Commerce is going m he working on This problem with a subcommiuce. He stated businesses also raced m be made swam of the orditwtce that prohibits dre sale of spray paint m minors, and come up with ways m display Ne product but have it in an area where it would be Aifficult m steal it. Councilmember Buquet stated they also had m look al Trying to have other communitres limit access m the materials used, otherwise people tram this area would just go to dte neighboring city m obtain what Ncy need, sa they should trY ro come up with a model that would be palamble a the business community Nat could be adopted by oNer cities. lyean Smothers fell they should identify tuggers wish a mom d~xogatory term, something Nat was not so socially acceptable Nat would idendfy These people for the vandals Ney really are. Mayor Smut eyuatcd Nis situation m a war situation, and fall they would rtcvcr aadrsam gramti entirely, just like any oNer crime, but widr the community waking mgether, they might be able m slow it down and get a handle on it. 1~ And-Gm(6d Task Force Minutes February 4, 7993 Page 3 Councilmember Baguet stated this problem is not necessarily limned m what has been traditionally considered dte bad clement, a lot of the kids that have been artasted recently coi*~e from some of Ne better parts of town. He felt [hero needed m be stronger consequences for the kids when they arc arrested because the way the sysmm is rmw, it does not make an impact on the kids when they are caught He spoke about some goals for updating the City's ordinances and with working in conjunction with dte business community in addressing this problem. [arty Staui felt they needed m start working with Ne manufacturers of Ute paint products in devising ways dte product can still be displayed for marketing purposes, but in such a manner i[ makes it di[ficult m steal, and having store personnel be avian; when people are purchasing cases o(spmy paint because no home Drojst would require that much. Councilmember Bttquet samd they also needed m start geeing the information out about We consequences that occur when people; arc caught, so the community and the perpetrmors know what could happen m diem if they are caught. He stated it could deter the kids that are basically good kids but have goners caught up in this, and they need m be aware that it's not much fun when you get caught, and how many kids are being caught now. 83. DJ LR CC PROPOSED ACTION PLAN Jerry Fulwood went over Ne Preliminary Anti-Graffiti Task Force Action Plan which had been distributed earlier m the Task Force. He added dtere were representatives (ran vadous groups, such as the utility companies, that would be available m answer any questions the Task Force may have. Councilmember Buquet asked to hear from Cheryl Karns from SouNcm California Edison about what they are doing about Nis problem. Cheryl Karns stated Ney have been hit hard in the last year in this region by gmffiti, and Ncy were concerned about prevention, because Nough Ne removal is costly, they know Ncy can handle that aspect of it. She wanted to recommend having Ne taggws be a pan of Ne process, and have dte Task Foroc interview Nem to get a better understanding of what motivates them and possibly come up wiN ways b prevent them from doing Ne graffiti. She also Nought having kids whose parentt were business owners and have been hurt by Nis, speak m the students at school. She telt Nis might have a positive affect because dre victim would no longer be faceless m them. She also felt juvenile offenders' names should be released m the press, even if it meant changing Ne legislation, because it would make the parents more involved in Uw process. She staled Edison tries m remove gaffiti within 48 hours utter being made aware of it, but they might not be notified right away. For Rancho Cucamonga, they have provided paint m the City Yard Nat mulches the pad mount transformers, and if dte City spots gmffiti on one, Ney can paint it right away. Don Moms felt Nis was an opportunity to do mom for the community other Nan taking care of gmffiti because he felt the underlying problem was a lack of sense of community, and graffiti was an ezpmssion by non-responsive individuals m sceial agreements. He stated it is also disturbing because Nis is becoming equal opportunity, i[ is no longer relegated to just a cermin group of people which can be ignored by Ne community on Ne whole. He suggested they could set up a special phone line hooked to a machine which Ne community could call arM leave Neir ideas on. He sorted Ne Preliminary Action Plan could be viewed as a map, and he would like m see it be as simple as possible consisting of Ne three strategies and Ne people Nat will be involved in the stramgies, Mayor Smut asked Don Moms to wok wiN Jerry Fulwood on a plan for Ne Task Force, 1° Anti-Graffiti Tack Force Minuux Fcbnury 4, 1993 Page 4 Rance Clouse stated the Chamber of Commerce and the basirtesses represented by it will panicipste wholeheartedly. He was also interested in getting input from the pcrpevaaxs az he does not rwrmally have interacrion wim the type of youth that participates in this type of activity. •~~~rr C 1. Eileen Dols stated the D.A,R.E. program was not always available (or all kids, so should not be me only program used to educate the kids, She felt dare should be a "Say No m Graffiti" type program, and to have a good reward system, and m teach the children m be prwd of their city. She also Celt there should be more meedngs available where citizens coWd gU logeiMr and discuss different ideas far approaching the problem. Mayor Smut stated because of the stnrcture of the Task Force, they could not have a completely open foram with everyone who attends, but stated Urere would be communications allowed. He added it would 6e very helpfW for the Task Force if somwne did have an idea, m put it down in writing so they could all have a chance m review it and understand dre concept presented. C2. Heidi Kaufman, a residrnl of Rancho Cucamonga and a law enticement offrci for the City of Riverside, felt they needed to Iaik m the kids and should let them sce the graftid at their schools on occasion. She felt this would make them aware of the problem and how it affects them personally, and could help Chum m exert peer pressure m the ones who arc doing the graffiti. She felt a program similar m the "Scared Svaight" program might wale as a prevenmdve measure, C3. Marie Lessner, resident of Rancho Cucamonga, fell the kids that are caught doing gmffi6 should be personally responsible for cortecdng Ne problem, such as required clean-up duly. She Celt when the parents paid the fines, the child did not feel the full consequence of (heir actions, and mil They needed to be mom accounmblc for ihcir actions. C4. Brian Gcrtnan, resident of Victoria Windrows, stated he was glad to hear mat progress was being made m allowing citizens m go on school property m eradicate graffiti, and asked it the paint that the Edison Company provided to the City (i graffiti removal woWd also he made available m members of the Adopt- A-Wall program. He felt the Task Force was a well rounded group and thanked the City for having something like mat. Councilmember Buquet stated pan of the process forme Task Force would be m work out details like having the dilFerent paint available to groups in the City. C5. James Sehaue, resident of Rancho Cucamonga and a Chairman on the County's Gangs and Drug Task Force, suggested waking with the Chamber m have businasses post reward posters in Neu windows and m post mem in the schools, highlighting the information about the amount of the reward and that all information is anonymous. He also though[ afmr hours phone numbers fi neighboring cities should be available. He thought any new ordinances should include peralties for kids being apprehended with grafEti materials. He also suggested looking inm whether the names of the parents o(mimxs apprehended could be pooled m drc paper. r+rt~r 10`2 Md-GrafSti Tack Force Minutes February 4, 1993 Page 5 Mayor Swot adjounrA the meetlng at 9:05 p.m. '~-~-R//e/s~/pectfully submitted, Jdn $utton~ ~~- I)eputY City Clerk 185 Febnrary 1g, 1993 CITY OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA ANTI-GRAFF177 TASK FORCE MINUTES RGrollazMt4Ueg A regular meeting of Ne Anti-Graffiti Task Force was held on Thursday, February IB, 1993, in the Tri- Communities Conference Room of Ue Civic Center, located at 105(p Civic Center Drive, Rancho Cucamonga, California.

B2, FORMATION OF St IB O_s MM1T~F~C Mayor Sbut felt them were several tasks that needed to be done, but did not feel they needed to have a Im o(exua madngs in order m accomplish them, He sated at the next maling the group would break up into subcommidces for the .subject areas shown on Ne Acdon Plan. He stated the subcommittees would then come back with (heir ideas to the enlve Task Force at the end of the meeting.

He also felt they needed ideas from people who own businesses, and that Nay needed b make business owners realize the importance of removing graffiti immediately, rrrrr• B3. DEVzLnPNFNT OF TIMc LIN° Mayor Stout stated Ne plan was m have their discussions and pWl all the information together inm a final (onnat for review by Ne Task Force in May, so that it ran be submitted m the full City Council in June 1993. Don Moms stated one of his ideas was to have the media help Nam by asking the Daily Bulletin m run a scdes of questionnaires for each of the topic areas on dw list, possibly orro each wcek, and m compile Ne suggestions Nat are sent back e. He felt Ncy might get some valuable suggesdons tram the community that way. Mayor Stout asked if it would be possible for the papa m ran a series like Thal. tarry Setd stated it should 6c. Larry McNiel staled that type of approach would go outside of the City and into the entire valley. Mayor Stout stated the City has been comacted by other local councilmember Nat are interested in working together with Rancho Cucamonga on Nis isxuc. Dean Smothers stated Nat when they finally design a program, Ncy should be sure it is something that will mean something to the eggers. Nat Ncy needed to consider Ncir motivation in egging, so that any deterrent Ne Task Force comes up wiN will be e(fecdve. Dun Moms suggested possibly having eggers Nat are caught fill out a simple profile m try m get an idea (rum them on what type o(person participates in Nis type of activity and why. Recd Montgomery felt if might be helpful to have a presentation from the Sheriffs Dc{rarunenl similar m the orre presen~4 at Victoria Groves school recently, but possibly more as a discussion item rather than a lecwre. Woody Williams stated that Harold showed Ncm mnight that taggcrs operam from an entirely different set of values Nan what they are used to draling wiN. He felt i(Ncy did rrot give people a better set of values, they would never alleviate the problem. He stated they might eliminate graffiti, but because of Ne lack of a value sendard, Ne perpetrator would just find some other oudet. He felt they needed to add somehing m their progrm in regards to values. Don Moms concurred that Ne basic problem was nut gm(fiG, it was Ne lack o(values and a sense of responsibility Nat created the curtent situation. r r>rrr 187 And-Graffiti Tazk Force Minutes February 18, 1993 Page 3 64. INTFRV~W VAND~~ Ikputy Nieto from the San Bernardirw County ShaifPS Department introduced Harold Payne, a reformed graffiti tagger, who now spent his time trying [o convince timers that they should stop tagging. The Task Face members and members of me audience asked Mr. Payne questions regarding lagging and the people who perform it, az well as information about himselL Harold Payne, in answer to various questions, stated that he was 17 ycers old and a senior N high school, and that he had given up tagging when he was a freshman, after several years and being one of dte best He stated mat he was associated wtm the CMK (Criminal Minded Kids a Kriminals) crew, which was based out of the Alta Loma area. He staled most kids became involved in tagging through Friends a acquaintances they knew frrun school arM ponies. He slated most started out for fun or the thrill, but that it could become an addiction. He stated most tuggers will be writing all dte lime, from scratch paper m me'm schwl work, amt will often work at improving me'v sign. He stated that he has known taggcrs from as young as 10 years old to their mid-20's, though most were junior and high school age. He stated that being a good raggcr tamed respect among their peers, and listed various ways of taming respect. He oared even though he knew he was destroying property, it did not matter to him at tfw lime he was tagging. He stated the majority of their supplies wem stolen, a may ptuchased them From adults out of 1-os Angeles. He staled most aggers were not associated wish gangs, though gangs could adopt a tagging crew, and then iF arwmer crew crossed out their tags, would help in dte mtribation against dot crew. He stated that he decided to get out of tagging when many loggers starting carrying guns m protect themselves irom gang members a vigilantes. He felt it was too dangerous, and he did rat want to go w jail fa shmdng someone. or to be shot himself. He sated a punishment like loosing his driver's license for a year a two if caught would be incentive to stop, but that many of the current punishments would not deter him from ragging. He swtcd that me kids even eamed respect when they were caught, so drat was not necessarily a deterrent. He sated that everyone knew Rancho Cucamonga mmoved the graffiti fastest of all me surtounding cities, but did not fcel that xtcd az a dclertent le the kids, it just provided diem with a titan area to paint on again. He now vied to talk kids he knew were tuggers into stopping, and finding other things to do with their time and energy. He felt an education program would be good as a prevention prpgram, but that you would have to start in the elementary schools at a young age to be effective. He defined some of the slang terms he used in his presenlation az: Crew: Members of a group organiuA for the purpose of lagging. Mobbing: Going out for a night of tagging with yotu crew. Rack: Steal Jack: Being beaten up Heroes: Vigilantes (from teenage to adults, equatod them m pcoDlc who served in Vicmam) Rave: Underground type pony with Techno or Rap music.

Ikputy Nieb stated the vandal they had at Ne last mewing is well traveled, N fact he is now living in Los Angeles in armNCr foster home, w he has a perspetive fmm all different areas. He stated Ne vandal he had wanted m bring tonight waz a local resident and would have mom pertinent infortnadon m Rancho Cuamonga Ibn Moms stated he waz concerned that by bringing in these kids and asking quesdons about why and how they do this, it would make them feel they, and what they do, are important, and he did not want to support that He felt wine of the information given last tlme was inaccurate, and Thal a lot of what was described was not pertinent to Rancho Cucamonga, w he appreciated the Sheriff s Deparunent trying to bring in a local perwn. He felt they needed m keep Ne'v questions matched to the intent of the interview w Nar they did not get misleading infomutdon, Councilmember 8uquet stated when it was suggested az Nc first mewing m try m interview someone, the intent was m try and be open to geeing as much information az they could. Whether the result was satisfactory, he could not say. He staled he did not think a group of their siu would give the speaker as much "juice" as if it was in a large public fomm Id;e a Council mcedng, but he agreed that they did not want to glorify this activity in eny way. Larry McNiel felt the prewnUtion waz worthwhile.

Rance Clouse stated he was one o(the people interested in hearing from the vandals because he does not have contact with this type of person and felt he needed Nis exposure in order to work on this problem.

Larry McNiel statcA this might be an opportunity to make this a regional function instead of just a strictly local function. Terry Fnlwond sated after discussing Nis issue al the last rneetlng, the concept was b design a questionnaire That would be easy to respond to, and to leave space (or suggestions, and m sec if it could be printed in Ne local paper.

They would even tie running it in thevvon-subscriber publication that comes out on Thursdays. CouncAmember Buquet thought they should use an ad type of format as opposed m an article because it would catch people's eyes. He stated he would like to get this into the newspaper and gel the responses pack before the Task Force disbanded. He stated they could do this duough a subcommittee, but he thought having ac much input as possible would guarantee a good produce Don Mortis suggested they appoint a Iwo member committee m work with Jerry Fulwood to devise. a draft questionnaire that could then be brought back at the next meeting for the entire Task Force to review.

He soled in his area there is a wall that looks like a checkerboard, and he waz told a year ago That the City would lake care of that and paint the wall all one color, bm he is still waiting for Ihat to happen. He asked when that would be done. Councilmemher Buquet sorted that trying to match paint colors is an area of concern, and there arc sonic walls in ;own that need m be completely repainted one color, but they needed to smblish which colors they will be using, atM map out the af(ecmd walls with the appropriate colors so the crews will know which paint to use. Nick Turello stated he undersmnds the budget constminLS of the City, but feels this is something that should have been done a long time ago. He, sated he is a 15 year resident in Ihat area, and feels That pan of town has sometimes been neglected in the past Mayor Stout asked which wall waz he re(crring to. Nick Tumllo sorted on Baker, between 8th and 9th Streets, and also on Alh along the railroad righto(-way. Mayor Slom stated at Jte previous night's Council mcedng, there was a Ciscussinn about Community Development Block Grant funds, and that 512,0(10.IX1 of that had been allocated (or graffiti removal in that area, and he and Councilmember RuquG both (eh that amount were inadequate, He sorted maybe graffiti romoval dots rwt mean just covering up gmfFld, but also mstodng the walls to an attractive sole. Nick Turclln sorted he was also intcrastcd in having an Adopt-A-Wall program, but was mld Ihat would not be a good choice in his area. Cnuncilmember Buquet slated they ncedeJ to work through that because he disagree) with That general assessment, and assured Mr. Turello shat he anJ Mayor Stout will be following up on his commenLS, and the amount of money proposed (or graf6[i removal (or that area.

Mayor Stout sated neither graffiti or shooting at people is accepubk to him and should not be wkrated, no mazkr what part of wwn it occurs in. He explained the situation with the Slate and how they were depleting the revenue sources for local government. He stated he wanted w get the message out that this waz not a good place for gang members w come to. He stated they wem looking for solutions to the budget problems, even if they were politically very difficul4 but that publk safety services wem the number one priority in this City. Ceuncilmember Bttquet concurred with Mayor SIOU4 and smtrd it was important w the Cmmcil that rite safety of its citizens not be compromised because of actions by the Stale. Olga Blind asked if it was correct that the City waz looking w expand their reserve (ones tram 39 m 50 personnel. Councdmember Duquct stated they curtendy have 34 Sheriffs reserves, which were all Level I and one of the best units in the County, He stated they arc constandv recmiting m inerrase that number, but there was a cost involved that was home by the reserve member. He staled a reserve officer was inquired w work a minimum of 16 hours per month, but that most of the City's rcscrves worked 35-00 hours per monN. He stated he was also extremely concerned about citizens who were untrained possibly trying to catch Ute vandals and tieing hurt in the process, He sated there have been some encounters between We kids and residents, and he did na went the kids to becase more militant arM feel they needed w be armed and then hurt someone. He felt they rteealed w proceed carefully. .. r... Ul. RREAK OUT OF SUB-COMMITTEE The Task Force recesxed to their respective subcommittees at 7:50 p.m, The Task Force was reconverted at 8:45 p.m. Peter Nomll stated the City/POlice/Judicial Subcommittee discussed some of the proposed legislation in Sacramenw that Assemblyman Aguim has sponsored, and felt most of it was good bw they are trying w find out what the community service time limits arc. They staled some of their suggested punishments could 6e having the person's driver's license resvicted until they are I8, or not being able w get am until Ne age of I8, and rgmmunity service fa a first offense should be between 120-150 hours of hard physical labor, na gmtfiti removal. He stated the proposed legislation would grant the ability w publish the names of mirrors in the paper, m at least the names of the parcnu prior m the conviction. He stated rite biggest problem in the area of punishment is that We juvenile hall is never going w take people caught doing graffiti due w lack of resources. He stated They also discussed institution b the City when someone is caught, and Celt the City should hire a wlledion agency az the most dTcicnt means of handling the workload. Thry also felt in the future rite City should go ro a program similar to the one in Hesperia, but he sated a drawback to that is that you are always having w get new people involved because there is a high rote of bum-ont. Wooly Williams sated another advanmgc of the Droposcd legislation by Assemblyman Aguiar is shat it givq the police the ability to go to wmcow's home to collect them for their community swvice if they do not slww up at the azsigned spot. He felt this would make community service sentences more nffrctive. Prier Nomli discussed why Ihcy did not feel graffiti removal was an appmpriak punishment for the vandals 198 Anti-Graffifi Task Force Minutes March 18, 1993 Page 5 Woody Williams stated the proposal legislazion also would require the juvenile or Nev parents reimburse the City for Ne Worker's Compensation expenses and the supervision overhead associated wiN doing community service so the City would not have to spend tux dollars for the wmmunity service sentences. Don Moms asked i(thc parents could be utilized in supervising the work crews. Peter Norell sm[ed because of the nature of the work they were proposing, it might not be feasible for the parents W participate in the supervision. I..arry McNiel stated they had to deal wiN certain issues when looking al this problem. One was where would you put the kids when Ney arc arrested, and currently there is no place, so they had m look for alternatives on where it would hit them the hardest, cost the kart and not be an administrative burden, and ultimately be the most effective. He stated they used these guidelines when reviewing suggestions. The Task Fcrce also discussed various dercrrents such as liens on the parent's properly, curfew enforcement, and creep sweeps. ttr~ Vince Ellefante sate the Business Subcommiuee spoke about the need W educate the business community, anJ spoke about Ne possibility of implementing this through the Chamber of Commerce almost immediately. He felt they needed to make businesses aware that this is trot just a problem of the City, it is also their problem because it costs everyone time and money. He hoped it would spima((to other service organizations as well. Councilmmnbcr Buquct stated it has been a challenge b get some of the businesses in town m go out and rover up the graffiti. He felt they needed N make the owners aware that pexq+le are intimidated aMut going into a business that has graffiti on its walls, and it does lose them customers and money. Mayor Stout asked if the Chmnber wool) be willing m do a special mailer regarding this issue to their members. Vince Elle(ante staled they would sort by writing a special article for The Resource magazine. He also Nought maybe Nc Doily Bulletin could also help by printing something about where the Task Force is going with the education pmcass. Peter Nore1l stated Ne City of Anaheim had a program similar m Red Ribbon Wcek, which was signified by green ribbons for an anti-graffiti wcek, anJ thought it would be goal for the whole valley to participate in a program like Nat. Mayor Stout stated Ne City of Riverside's Police Department execute) five grafTti search warrants and went in Ne residences !coking for graffiti materials. Eric Sieber stated aztother suggestion was that in conjunction wiN a Clean Swcep day, Ney wuld encourage people to bring in materials laying around the house or garage Nat caul) be used far graffiti. Larry McNiel slated it was suggested at the last mwting by Ranee Clouse Nat Ney might want to contact a real estate estimator to get an ilea of how graffiti affects properly values, and he felt Nul would be an effective way b approach people.

Lary Staui asked i(when they catch someone, cold they somehow have them go back and immediately remove the gaffti they have applied. Maya Stout staled they would not be able m do that because if it was private property, they would need permission from the property owner, and if it was public property, there world be liability issues h:volved. Woody Williams sated them would also be issues involved regarding possibly violating the civil codes for false imprisonment, etc. Rance Clouse asked if in regards m private property, could you get permission ahead of time m go onto Ne property fa removal, and lien charge die owner afterwards far the work that was done.

REVIEW OF RANCHO CUCAMON .A'c pROPO D ANTI RAPFITI ORDJN NCE Councilmember Buquet slated that on page 3 of the draft ordinance, Section R.24.050 refers to "Graffiti Implemrnb" He felt that "Section D" at the mp of page 3 which defines what a graftiD implement is should also include etching device. He thought they might want m also consider adding language that would designate any type of device capable of defacing property as a graffiti implement ro cover any new devices that become popular with the vandals. Com~cilmember Buquet sorted on page 6, Section C, subsection 1, he would suggut substituting Ne language because he felt die way it was written now, anyone who owns a house tt block wall would want the City to remove the graffiti. He would like to change it to say "...is so located on public or privately owned properly viewable from a public or quasi-publk place within the City, and there is a duly authorized cost roimbursement agreement on file with the City, the City shall be authorized to use public funds for the removal of same,..." He slated he would send this to the City Attomey to review and suggest it be inserted to protect the Ciry from people who did not care whether the graffiti was removed or not John Potter asked (or clarification on what is enforceable (or getting a judgment against a minor's pammts. Councilmember 6uquc[ suk~4 [here am some proposed bills that deal with that issue. Peter Nomll smtrd they are still trying to get a package mgeNer in Sacramento and combine I1 proposed bills into ono. but felt there would be a bill passed this time. He sorted it currently is (he opinion of the local coons Ihat there are sections in the codes that allow pamnts m 6e liable (or up to 57,500.00 per minor's act, and there have nor been tun many cases drat sury+assed that figure. Dep. Smith, Police Depanmcn6 sorted they have been collecting Onas for juveniles through the probation process which comes back m the Ciry. lohn Putter retorted back to Section A.24.050 on page 3, which prohibited possession of graffiti implements in designated public places, and asked if there was anything in the ordinance which would cover commercial dcvclopments or private property. Councilmemher Buquet soled since this was designed as a municipal ordinance, it would oniv deal with public facilities. He stated with private shopping centers, [hat issue was being addressed through IM, proposed bills in Sacmmenm right now, anJ if something was passed, that would prc-empl the City's regulations. He thought the only way trey might be able to extend that would be if Ue property was posted, like when it is posted for vehicle code violaDons. Peter Norell sorted they cmmot enforce possession of implements on private property, but they can enforce under the vandalism codes. He felt it would be difficult (or the Sheriffs to come onto private property unless it was somehow posted. Councilmembcr Buyuct sorted lorry Fulwoal would follow-up wish the Cily Attomey on posting requirements fur private properly. He sorted he envisioned the City in conjunction with the Chamber of Commerce producing uniform signs that could be sold at a minimal cost m the shopping centers, that way the language was consistent with the applicable aides, the signs would be easily recognizable and shay could be sure it was correct and cnforccablc. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Minutes May 6, 1993 Page 3 Iarry McNiel interred to Sectlon 8.24.090, subsection A, "Rertroval Revisions" found on page 6, and questioned dtc length of dine allowed [or removal, as well u the dif(wencc in the time allowed (w people who had a graffiti removal program and those that did not, and tell possibly these amounts of lime were too long since the community already has an esublishcd phibsophy for immediate removal. Peter Novell sated they had to have these timelines for due process, and only giving someone a couple of day's notice is not considered masonable. Councilmember Buquw stated he agreed with the concerns expressed by tarry McNiel. He stated there wen; very few cases where the City has to resort m the full time needed for abatement on private property. Richard Akom, Cnde Enforcement Supervisor, wens over the xhW lime involved in the abatement and enforcement pra:esses (w private property. Larry McNiel asked why waz exva time given for someone who has an active gmffid mmoval program az opposed m someone who does not. Richard Alcom, Cade Enforcement Supervisor, stated that if a property owner can prove they have a removal program in place, Nen the City can be confidrnt that it will be removed, If they have a stropping center that does rrot provide shat type of program, than staff would need to proceed move quickly because there would still be due process issues ro wntend with. He sated the throe elements shat constitute a program are someone on sire that can identify the graffiti, a contatt person that gm(fisi can be reported to, end tither a service or materials available to address the graffiti removal, Couxilmember Buyuet stated you have to allow someone a reasonable amount of time ro mmove dre graffiti it they have an csmblishcd program. He stated Nat even though on papw it looked like you were allowing these people m leave the gra(Oti up longer before they had to remove it, in realiry places that have an established program usually remove the graffiti faster than the time period allowed. By giving a longer time for ahatement to people who have cstablishcd programs, this is an incemive mcehanism to get people to set up programs. He stated he envisioned a policy being pm tine pixe that when a propetty owner was contacted about removing the graffiti and they did not, then she City would do the removal and bill the owner. That way it would take cam of people who did not want m voluntarily regwnd. The Task Force concurred they should recommend the modified draft onlirmrme to the Council far consideration. Pemr Nwcll referred to Section R.24.100, and felt [hey should change the wording from "...performance of community service in the form o(gratfid clean-up to the maximum extent, ," W say "performance of community service that may include graffiti clean-up to the maximum exmnt.J' He felt this would better mBect she feelings of the Task Face that the punishment should not include or be limimd to gmfBti clean-up, and should consul of other tasks that wem mom labor intcnsivc.

He asked the Task Force for input on if the questions would generate the response they were kz>king for. Rance Cbuse stated he Celt there needed to be another question asking if people would be willing m financially support efforts to resolve graffiti vandalism. He [elt this was important because any Iaogmm would need funding and the City would not be able to pay for everything, He thought this would criminate a fight with the busirrss community about garnering financial support if the answer tame back yes. Don Mortis thought maybe they should assume the public would want to support programs, and they should ask how much would they be willing m give. Reed Montgomery stated it was important how the question was asked because in a recent situation in Fontana, people were asked in a survey if they would pay $(0.00 a year to build a new school and they said no; but when asked if Ney would pay $5.00 per month everyone said yes, even though the end nxult was the same. The Task Force discussed whether a not m irmlude an amount in the question, and ways the business community could cooperate b help fund some of the progrartis. lerty Falwnod, Deputy City Manager, soled the goal was to finalize the questions this evening so they could be forwarded b the newspaper as soon as possible. Larry McNicl sated in regards m rye questions conmined in the agenda package, he would eliminate question B because he (elt that concept was covered in the Ihrce other questons they discussed earlier; 6e would keep questions A and C, and under question D he would list options that people could check that Ney thought were reasonable penalties. The Task Force suggested the following options to go under question D: driver's license revocation, suspension or pnstponemen6 community service, parenul financial responsibility, parental supervision of violator's public service, corrective measure ewrse (similar to traffic school),jail time, and odher. Eric Sieber felt that on question C they should add a tag line onto the question asking what people would do if they caught their (ricnd's or neighbor's kid doing graffiti, because (here might be a different response from what they would do to their own childmn. The Task Force concurred m add quaction 7: As a business person, would you financially support a program to resolve the graffiti problem.

Buquet TI and Diane Williams City Council Park and P.ecreation Subcommittee BY: Rick Gomez, Community Development Director SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A MEMORIAL PLAQUE IN HONOR OF PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSIONER SAM PUNTER RECOMMENDATION Approve a. memorial plaque ir. honor of Sam Punter and approve the text of the plaque and its proposed location at the Adult Sports Park. BACEGRODND Sam Punter, City of Rancho Cucamonga Park and Recreation Commissioner from 1983-1990, was a strong advocate of the park and recreation program in Rancho Cucamonga and represented the residents well in ensuring that facilities and programs were provided for the recreational pursuits of residents of nil ages in the community. At its October 15, 1992 meeting, the Park and Recreation Commission discussed dedicating a parK facility in memory o! Sam Punter. The Commission's recommendation was that a park not be named after Mr. Punter, but that a memorial plaque be placed in the Terra Vista Planned Community with the following prioritization: (1) Coyote Canyon Park; (2) Terra vista /6; (3) a plaque or room ba named in his honor at the Neighborhood Center. (An excerpt of the approved minutes from the Park and Recreation Commission meeting of October 15, 1992, are attached for the Council's review.) Sam Punter was committed to the community and strongly supported the Adult Sports Park concept and its intended goal of enabling the adults of the community a place to participate in active sports without impacting surrounding neighbors, thus freeing the community park facilities for the youth. Therefore, the Park and Recreation Facilities Subcommittee recommend that a fitting location for the proposed memorial is the Sports Park where it can be viewed by the community. 213 In accordance with this recommendation, staff has prepared a sketch indicating the proposed memorial plaque location at the South concourse Entry of the Sports Park, which was chosen in honor of Mr. Punter, signifying the fruit of his efforts in his commitment to the residents of the community. Suggested text for the proposed plaque is also included for review.

Discussion ensued on areas of the Sports Complex as shown on the exhibits attached. chairperson Whitehead opened the meeting up for public comment at 8:15 p.m. There was no comment; therefore the meeting was closed for public comment. Commissioner Henry said with respect to naming a park after someone, a policy was developed to discouraca such. She stated her concern that this might establish a precedent with respect to other people who have been very instrumental in the City over the years. Commissioner Henry felt that a monument marker at the Sport= complex, which Mr. punter was really involved with, would t. appropriate. Discussion ensued on the possibility of a monument at the Sports Complex. Commissioner Mitchell stated she strongly feels that this particular issue be addressed by the City Council. Chairperson Whitehead said he is unsure of what should be done, but felt strongly that the Commission make a recommendation to City Council. Chairperson Whitehead stated that he would like to see something put in at the Sports Complex, i.e., a section of the park close to the main driveway be sectioned off and permanently dedicated as a memorial or appropriate marker for Sam Punter. Commissioner Henry stated there is plenty of room to work with within the designed landscaped areas that would he adequate and still meet Mr. Whitehead~s criteria, but she does not want to see parking places taken away. Commissioner Mitchell stated Mr. Punter lived in the Terra Vista community and suggested that an area of the Terra Vista park, such as the playground area, be dedicated to Sam Punter. She said Terra Vista area is appropriate as Mr. Punter was extremely fond of that area.

Fulwood, Deputv City Manager SUBJECT: ANTI•GRAFFITI TASK FORCE RECOMMENDATTON BACKGROUND Cities are experiencing a blight. This blight -- graffiti -- is an increasing world-wide social phenomenon. Most of the graffiti that is occurring in Rancho Cucamonga is the work of "vandals" -very little is gang related. Vandals are generally not affiliated with gangs and vandalize independently. It is a form of social vandalism that has replaced more traditional Forms of vandalism. Buk their graffiti is no less offensive and ugly. In response to this growing problem, the City of Rancho Cucamonga has increased its efforts in the cvar an graffiti to preserve the beauty of our community. Rancho Cucamonga's City Council has made graffiti eradication a priority through the implementafion and/or support of several programs. The City attempts to remove all reported graffiti from public property as quickly as possible. This is done by the Public Works Division. If the graffiti is on private property, the Code Enforcement Division will notify the property owner that graffiti removal is the property owner's responsibility. It is hoped that the owner will remove the graffiti within 24 - 48 hours. However, if the problem is not corrected in a timely mamter, the City wlll begin an abatement process and/or prosecution. It is hoped that home and business owners will recognize the importance of keeping graffiti off their properties. In the past, Rancho`s City Cauncil has implemented a "spray can" ordinance which makes it illegal for businesses to sell certain aerosol paint containers to persons under t8 years of age. The businesses are required to post signs warning of the punishment Eor vandalizing property with spray paint. They are further required to .secure certain spray cans to prevent theft. Additionally, the City Council recently implemented an Anti-Graffiti Task Force to increase its efforts in this war on graffiti. The Ciky is currently working with the Police Department and resident groups to step up surveillance efforts in the community. The City recognizes that education ~'avs an important part in the effort against graffiti and Rancho Cucamonga is exploring the possibility cf setting up an educational program in the schoals to address the problem. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation Page 2 August 18, 1993 The City Council has supported a grass roots movement to eliminate graffiti. This program, called "Adopt-A-Wall;' is made up of volunteers from the community who "adopt-a-wall" and keep it free from graffiti. The City also supports the WeTip Reward Program. If a resident or.business owner knows someone who is defacing property with graffiti, they can call atoll-free number, report the person or persons and retain their anonymity. For arrests leading to conviction, there are rewazds available. Graffiti is an extremely serious problem facing all communities today. it is going to take a combined effort by the residents, business community, educational community, and local government to combat the prevalence of graffiti. As a summary, the following list reflects some anti-graffiti measures the City has taken in the past in its waz against graffiti: • Adopt-A-Wall Program/Anti-Graffiti Program - Volunteers exploring removing graffiti from private property/business parks • Provided approximately 18,000 gallons of recycled county paint (no charge to the City) for graffiti removal • Ordinance regulating the sale of spray paint to minors (1989) • Ordinance requiring graffiti to be removed from private property in a timely manner (1989) • Implemented an administrative policy to remove gang and obscene graffiti within 24 hours of reporting • WeTip participation • Implemented a 24 hour graffiti hotline for reporting graffiti • Explored numerous graffiti abatement products on the market, i.e., graffiti melt, write off, etc. • Utilized work referrals for graffiti removal Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 3 • At the request and consent of parents, the City has utilized vandals to remove graffiti as an educational experience • WeTip Reward Program • Member of the National Graffiti Information Network • Ltinutes of the Anti-Graffiti Task Force established by the City Council (see Exhibit "D") • Public awareness articles in The Grapevine • Community workshops • City Council and staff members have participated in graffiti paint-out • Neighborhood Watch Programs • Park Watch Programs • Anti-graffiti community oriented policing program HISTORICAL OVERVIEW The following historical overview was presented in the National Graffiti Information Network, January/February 1993 issue: Graffiti markings by definition have been around for centuries as man has endeavored to make his mark, to be recognized and to communicate a message that may be seen in its day or by a traveler of a future day. For law enforcement, this menacing visual blight is often resource which identified who, where, why and how. Though street gang graffiti is constant and growing, it is not the growing concern as that of the tagging movement. Taggers, unlike street gangs, have no territory; they strive for style, quantity of tags and the difficulty of the target. Taggers are usually linked or classified as social gangs, inasmuch as they are predominantly singular in their motive, which is to get their mark up and have it seen or recognized. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 4 Tagging began as an offshoot of gang activity and took shape in the late 60's in and around New York City. In 1971, an interview with 'TAKI 183;' a previously unknown writer, gave way for him to instant fame and determined the audience that would guarantee fame to every new and upcom;ng writer. With each exposure through the print media, new writers seeking fame and recognition surfaced and the movement was born. Skirmishes with New York's Mayor Lindsay in 1972 further fed the movement as New York's youth challenged the Mayor's authority and his threats to bring an end to graffiti. After an agreed blackout of several years, New York Times Magazine made news in 1980 when they interviewed "NE;' T-Kid" and "Seen" and from this point on the movement has expanded exponentially. In 1981 Mayor Koch introduced the first one million dollar plus program and the New York City writers took up the Mayor's challenge. In December 1981, Mayor Koch approved a 22 million dollar expenditure to fence and secure MTA trains, which was challenged by writers who moved their attacks to the inside of the trans instead. In the mid-1980s, Dave Gunn was appointed General manager of New York's MTA, and his policy on "zero" tolerance and a conversion to stainless steel train roaches stymied the local writers. Meanwhile, on the West Coast and in Los Angeles, the 1984 Olympics went on without a hitch and the "City of Angels" was as clean as it's ever been. However, by late 1985 and early 1986, the City began seeing a stylized form of wall art similar to that of the New York style which early observers called balloon art or bombing. By 1987, the more colorful and detailed "pieces"(short for masterpiece) had given introduction to a quicker, less detailed style, now expressed as "tagging." From 1987 to 1992, Los Angeles experienced a 1000% increase in taggers with estimates greater than 5,000 by this time. Unlike cultural gangs that only mark the territory they wish to claim, the social movement known as tagging expresses their desire as "all city;' which means that their only limitation is transportation. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 1S, 1993 Page 5 The tagger, if prolific, may tag three to five days or evenings a week, and he or she may tag fifty or more structures per shift. Since style is important, the writer will develop a unique personal signature that is as exclusive as his own handwritten name and will usually connect the letters so that the spray paint valve is depressed only once to spell his entire tag name; this is referred to as can or valve control and as a derogatory term. Those who have little can control aze referred to as a 'Toy" (a beginner). The tagger belongs to a group of two or three on up to 100 or more, and refers to his team as a "set;' "new" or "posse." The name of the writer and/or his "crew' maybe displayed and the crew name is most often abbreviated as a three-digit acronym. A crew will want to secure a popular established anonym, like TKD, UPS, ATC, USC, STP or another initial combination that represents two or more meanings (theirs and society's, i.e., STP, Setting the Pace). Incorporating numbers in the anonym name is popular as in D2D (Down to Destroy) or J4F (Just For Fun). Striving for fame and recognition the evolution toward permanence has taken many writers into the use of glass sa•ibers and other homemade devices that are more difficult to remove, often increasing cost due to the replacement of the damaged component. Cost estimates to remove unwanted graffiti or replace damaged building components exceeds a billion per year and this cost is increasing. Moving into the 1990s, the presence of graffiti glorification by the media, graffiti in advertising and graffiti designer products lead the way as the major contributing influence for increases in this form of vandalism. The question posted by the media and the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, is, "Is it art or graffiti?" The answer is, "Without permission, it's vandalism!" Trends in Vandalism Approaching another year's end (1992), progress in vandalism remediation and control has identified only a few success stories, while most communities across the country and internationally have reported both increases and expensive variations in the graffiti movement as we know it. ~~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Fecommendation August I8, 1993 Page 6 On the rise has been the use of homemade marking devices. Some of these implements of destruction include the ink, paint or dye applicator variety, which are accessible in any trash dumpster (the applicator) and, combined with paint, ink pad ink, shoe polish or even grape juice concentrate, can rival any store-bought device. Challenged by restricted accesses, product cost and the desire to be creative;'writers" (the graffiti artists) have adopted alternative accesses, while honing their skill using devices custom formed to the canvas (your wall or building component) of their choice. Design variation go from a crude deodorant roll-on container stuffed with cotton or a cotton sock, to cut and Eormed felt tips and/or chemical resistant sponges which hold a supply of ink, while providing flow and contour control over the surface being written on. Using a "Brut" deodorant stick, the "writer" can obtain a smooth I-3J4" marking width and, if caught, very few trained police officers will know to look at a writers possessions with such scrutiny. It has been my experience that the average household contains a variety of devices that lend themselves to the device creativity of a challenged vandal. Virtually any container that will reservoir a liquid can be modified to restrict the flow of a commercial or blended mixture which is often present in the home or on the street environment. To a field investigator, homemade markers are more easily identified by their noncommercial width, by their viscosity wet (more prone to dripping or an uneven flow) and by their sensitivity to nonconventional solvents. Walls that are very porous and in areas where the writer is seeking a larger canvas, will usually stay with an aerosol type of device (commercial or modified), leaving the smoother, less porous walls and smaller tags to the use of a nonconventional device. Aerosol spray is the means of choice by those writers who favor quality over quantity and clearly Krylon is the spray of choice. This honor and distinction originally evolved out of price and color availability, but has since become a choice of symbolic status and recognition. One variation, which is in common to a percentage of those who spray paint walls, is the use of spray paints that contain certain addictive or euphoric solvents and this may be an added consideration when buying or "racking" (stealing) the aerosol spray paint of choice. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 7 Of greater monetary concerns in new trends, is the movement from the use of pigmented paints or dyes into glass etching, which now may contribute to more than 10°io of the total reoccurring areas vandalized by "writers." Although most devices are disguised to look like a pen (with an inserted carbide tip), many are no more than a sharp metal object, a coin, steel wool or even a sharp rock wilt do. Once etched or scribed, a window must be replaced to remove vandal's scar. When vandals were interviewed, the "writers" who scribe on glass were aware of the glass value and several indicated that large panels of glass were the best target since the replacement cost would deter a quick recovery, permitting a longer recognition time for their effort Calculating the cost of remediation, this variation in vandalism may cost property owners several hundred dollars in areas that under paintrout conditions would have equaled only $10 to $20. Moving from glass to smooth metal finished, we have also experienced reported increases in similar etching on elevator doors, street signs and on automobiles. To be considered is which surface will offer the longest peer recognition prior to repair or removal, then the property owner must accept the fact that most hard-core vandals are already aware of the same considerations. An elevator door may exceed the replacement cost of glass and all of this reinforces the community and municipal need to require personal or behavioral aaountability for those who ignore the vandalism laws. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Formation On December ]6, 1992, in response to the growing graffiti problem, the Law Enforcement Subcommittee (Mayor, Dennis Stout and Mayor Pro Tem, Chuck Buquet) requested that the City increase its efforts in the war on graffiti by creating an Anti-Graffiti Task Force. The recommended life of the Task Force was four months from their first meeting after appointment. This four month period was projected to provide sufficient time to develop and recommend any enhancement to Rancho's existing Anti-Graffiti Program. The Task Force was to include members from the City Council, Commissions, Chamber of Commerce, Business Community, School Districts and General Community. A suggested list of possible topics for discussion by the Task Force included: Understanding current graffiti problem Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 8 • Review current program and resources and develop new strategies • Identify ways to combat graffiti • Identify community resources • Review enforcement efforts and legal provisions • Review existing ordinance and recommend revisions of same • Graffiti removal on private property • Enforcement of spray can ordinance On January 6, 1993, City Council approved the Law Enforcement Subcommittee's recommendation to form an Anti-Graffiti Task Force. The Anti-Graffiti Task Force's purpose and mission was to recommend a program to eliminate or controi graffiti throughout the City. The Task Force was programmed to complete its task within a four month period. Task Force Recommendation The Anti-Graffiti Task Force has included a proposed Anti-Graffiti Ordinance (see Exhibit "A") as part of its recommendation package. The preamble reflects the Task Force's viewpoint on graf(iti. "The City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga hereby specifically finds that graffiti on public and private properties is an immediate and serious threat to the safety and welfare of the community. Furthermore, graffiti encourages gang and other criminal activities thereby threatening the safety of citizens of the City. Additionally, both public and private properties are experiencing a dramatic increase in graffiti which is costly to remove and creates a negative image of the City of Rancho Cucamonga. Graffiti is a blighting factor which not only depreciates the value of such property that has been the target of such vandalism, but also depreciates the value of the adjacent and surrounding properties so as to create a negative impact upon the entire City. 8 Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page S State law authorizes the City, under certain circumstances, to provide for the removal of graffiti and other inscribed materials from private as well as public property. The Council Finds and determines that graffiti is obnoxious and a public nuisance and unless the City causes it to be removed from public and private property, it tends to remain. Other properties then become the tazget of graffiti with the result that entire neighborhoods are affected and become less desirable places in which to be. It is the purpose and intent of the City Council, through the adoption of this Chapter, to provide additional enforcement tools to protect public and private property from acts of vandalism and defacement, including the application of graffiti on privately and publicly owned walls and structures. Such acts are inimical to and destructive of the rights and values of private property owners as well as the total community. It is the further intent of the City Council, through the adoption of this Chapter, to provide notice to all of those who disregard the property rights of others, that the law enforcement agencies of the City, the Sheriff's Department and the District Attorney's office, will strictly enforce the law and vigorously prosecute those persons engaging in the defacement of public and private properties." The Task Force's recommendation should be implemented in four phases. This would provide sufficient time to implement the more complicated time and resource consuming recommendation. Additionally, this would allow sufficient time to abandon those recommendations that cannot be implemented because of legal and legislative limitations, while providing time for impacted agencies to respond. The following recommendations are being provided for City Council consideration. City Council has the option of modifying, deleting or adding options. Additionally, the recommendations per phase is subject to City Council approval. (see Exhibit "B") Phase One Recommendation 1. Applicable agencies should place strategically located anti-graffiti signs alerting people to We-Tip hot line telephone number, Sheriff's Department telephone number and ttte Anti-Graffiti hotline telephone number. 2. The City should keep abreast of technology for the removal and prevention of graffiti. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page ]0 3. The City should retain a policy to remove graffiti within 48 hours of happening. 4. Limit the paint coior used on walls within the City to three basic colors. This will enable the City to react quicker and reduce the number of paint colors it would have to retain. 5. Develop a training program for teachers and parents on how to recognize a tagger. The Police Department may be able to imptement training workshops. 6. Develop a series of televised town hall meetings featuring the City Mayors of the Inland Valley. The cities' Cable Television Companies and Daily Bulletin would have to work together to implement this program. 7. The Chamber and City should work together to develop an educational and informational program to inform applicable retailers about the City's Anti- Graffiti Ordinance and the assodated problem with vandals. 8. The City should develop and encourage neighborhoods, schools, businesses, and park watch programs. 9. Rancho Cucamonga should adopt the proposed new municipal ordinance which is stronger than the current Anti-Graffiti Ordinance. Additionally, the proposed ordinance addresses issues applicable to today's vandalism problems. The proposed ordinance deals with timely issues as follows: • Unlawful to apply graffifi • Possession of graffiti devices and scribbing devices by minors prohibited • Possession of graffiti devices prohibited is designated public places • Accessibility to graffiti devices rewards • Reimbursement of cellular phone costs • Penalties and civic liability of parents • Graffiti removal provisions /~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August I8, 199: Page I1 • Right of entry on private property The Task Force strongly recommends that the City council adopt the proposed ordinance as recommended by the Task Force and implement the same as the back bone of the recommendation package. The proposed ordinance would provide the City with a more efficient and effective tool to deal with the problem of vandalism. 10. Schools and the City should wor4. toward implementing an Adopt-A-School Program. This action will discourage vandalism on school sites. 11. The City should send thank you post cards to people who report graffiti to the City. This will encourage community participation in this war against graffiti. ]i. The Task Force should meet at the end of each of the four phases to report back to the City Council on the progress of the Program. This will ensure that the program is progressing as intended. 13. Parents and/or guardians should pay for the damage that was done by their children. This should discourage vandals as well as encourage parental discipline. 14. The City should encourage more citizen patrol participation and provide more vehicles to assist in patrolling and surveillance. This should discourage vandalism within the business, education and general communities. 15. Graffiti forbidden signs should be posted on business and school properties. This will assist law enforcement to enforce no vandalism on private and school properties. Phase one recommendation would begin on September I, 1993 and end on November 30, 1993. Phase Two Recommendation I. The applicable agencies should implement an Adopt-A-Business Program. This program would be similar to the Adopt-A-Wall Program. The program should discourage vandals since gtarfiti will be removed in a timely basis. 2. Work with and support the school districts with implementing their educational code which states the appropriate protocol for the suppression of graffiti on campus. Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 12 3. School districts, the City and WeTip should work together in alerting students to the WeTip Hotline Program. This would include installing WeTip signs on campus. 4. Students caught vandalizing schools or other properties will be required to remove graffiti from said facility under supervision of their parents. Staff is reviewing the legality of implementing such a program. 5. City should encourage and support any Anti-Graffiti Contest and Programs implemented by the schools or community. 6. The City should work with County Probation to explore the possibility of implementing ayouth-board-type prograri to work with vandals and their parents. Phase two programs would commence on December 1, 1993 and end by February 28, 1994. Phase Three Recommendation 1. Research possibility of coordinating Inland Valley wide graffiti paint-out headed by apprehended offenders and their parents. 2. Rancho Cucamonga should take an active role to oppose any actions that glorify vandals. This would include discouraging printing of posters, signs and clothing that glorifies graffiti. 3. The City and schools should work together to explore the possibility of developing a challenge risk rope course. This program will empower students to become more self-reliant. The details of this rope course and its curriculum will be forthcoming. It will be directed to the fifth and sixth grades. 4. The City should develop a Green Ribbon (Anti-Graffiti) Week. This would be similar to Red Ribbon Week. This should discourage vandalism and educate young people as to the negative effects that vandalism has on the community. Phase three programs would commence on March I, 1994 and end by May 31, 1994. is Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August I8, 1993 Page 13 Phase Four Recommendation (The recommendations applicable to this phase are mere controversial in nature. A number of the recommendations may not be possible because of legal, financial, and jurisdictional issues.) Therefore, the Subcommittee is requesting that City Council direct staff to research these recommendations to determine what would it take to implement programs if possible, or such legislative enactment of those applicable items. 1. Vandals names to be published in the newspaper under crime against our community. 2. Vandals records would remain open to be used if and when other offenses occurred. This would provide the law enforcement and judicial department the opportunity to further research problems on an ongoing basis. 3. Amulti-agency effort should include requiring offenders attend a mandatory school course on vandalism and community responsibility. 4. The applicable agencies/cities should develop an Anti-Graffiti Video. The video can be used to educate all segments of the community. 5. The City should work with all school districts to encourage that school districts share their anti-graffiti plans with each other and their teacher. 6. Convicted vandals under the age of 1F should not be allowed to obtain their driver's license until they turn 18 or 21 years old. 7. Initiate process to increase fines and seek mandatory restitution from vandals. 8. The City should support stronger legislation to be used in the war against graffiti. 9. Work with business community to enhance working relationship in removing graffiti. Phase four should commence on June I, 1994 and end by August 30, 1994. /3 Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 14 These recommendations are being presented to City Council for its consideration. The Task Force hopes that City Council will feel comfortable with implementing these recommendations. The Task Force's main objective was to gather information from as many sources as possible. The following are examples of these informational sources. • General public during Task Force meetings • Requested programs from other cities • Requested ordinances from other cities • Requested information from utility companies • Obtained recommendations from some schools • Reviewed National Graffiti Informational Network newsletters • Considered staff's recommendations • Obtained input from the educational community • Obtained information from Adopt-A-Wall participants • Obtained information from vandals • Obtained information from the Aolice Department • Considered input from City Commissions • Considered input from judicial area of County of San Bernardino • Considered input Erom business community • Considered survey from Daily Bulletin The Daily Bulletin's Anti-Graffiti Survey was developed jointly by the Task Force and the Daily Bulletin. Its objective was to obtain any recommendation or thought that had been overlooked during the Task Force research. ~~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 7993 Page IS On June 13, 1993, the survey was published in the newspaper. Ninety-four responses were received by mail (see Exhibit "C"). The Daily Bulletin had protected seventy to seventy-five responses. A copy of the questionnaire has been provided for your information (see attached). Additionally, the survey results are being provided in summary format for your consideration. A Compilation of Responses to the Anti-Graffiti Task Force's Survey Questions We received 94 responses by mail -The Daily Bulletin anticipated 70 to 75 responses. Rancho Cucamonga 19 Covina Upland 8 Chino Ontario 5 Montclair Pomona 3 Bloomington Fontana 3 Claremont Total of 44 Question #1 -- 100% oppose graffiti Question #2A -- Own children/Restriction/Make life miserable/Restitution/Make them clean up graffiti/Delay driver's license Question #2B -- Neighbors' children/Call WeTip/Call Police/Report to parents Question #3 -- Answers in order of preference Parental financial responsibility 72 Parents supervise Clean-up 66 Community service 62 Driver's license postponed or revoked 58 Vandalism detention (like traffic school) 38 Jail 35 Other: • Mandatory parent/child course on vandalism and community valves • Confiscate bike or vehicle • Publicize successful prosecution • Work for the victim of their vandalism ~~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18,1993 Page 16 • Lock up paint • Hnforce curfews • Student patrols (adult supervision) • Vandal registry • Put vandals in charge of clean-up • Aid seniors -yard work/paint house • Adopt-A-Tagger Question #4, S, and 6 -- Little response beyond those listed in question #3 and the "Other" category. Consensus was stiffer penalties. One suggested service club involvement Question #7 -- 60% said they would pay; however, there was no specific amount suggested, nor how it would be assessed. Enthusiasm usually drops when you get to hard dollar figures. The 40% who said no one felt that the burden should fall on the taggers or their parents, they were already paying through taxes, through people's volunteer time and through having to look at the vandalism. In addition to the survey summary, a copy of four responses have been provided for your review. It is believed that these four responses will provide you with information on how others within the community view this issue. The Anti-Graffiti Survey Subcommittee has requested that the City Council consider the following recommendation per the survey findings: Schools may want to implement an on campus anti-graffiti student patrol Have vandals assist senior citizens with your clean-up, etc. Have schools include In their curriculum a section on community values and graffiti awareness. These four suggestions were not considered by the other Task Force members since it was published after the Task Force had its final meeting. Therefore, if City Council believes that any one of the four items be included as part of the Eormal recommendation, that option is available. ~~ Anti-Graffiti Task Force Recommendation August 18, 1993 Page 17 The Task Force members have volunteered to meet together at the end of each recommendation phase to report back to the City Council on the progress of the program, if City Council believes this is a worthwhile endeavor. Otherwise, the Anti-Graffiti Task Force would like to take the opportunity to thank the City Council Eor giving them the opportunity to serve the community by working together to develop a program to deal with vandals and their graffiti.

I feel the graffiti is only a symptom of the lack of direction in the lives of our ch iidren. Yss - I do feel graffiti needs to ba stopped. It coats the homeowners alone vast amounts in lost property values. My children ere 6 and 9 and attend private school in Chino. They are somewhat sheltered, rather protected from some of the 'roughness' a lot of hide encounter. My husband and I talk to our kids about gangs, graffiti, drugs and responsibility. Wa don't leave our kids alone. They'rs net perfect kids and I may have problems down the road, but we're investing a let now in the hope it pays oft. Ssl P-esteem is also something we talk about. I may be wrong, but I don't think that people who sneak around with spray paint cans have a high level of self esteem. It I found out that my boys were involved in graffiti, their lives would change dramatically. It they weren't already busy with activities and interests, they'd get soma fast. I'd put them in some volunteer situations. I!d probably invest in family counseling - I would want to know why they had Aone it. And it goes without saying they'd be working oft the coat of tho damage to whoever had been victimized. I think the punishment should fit the crime - graffiti removal, community service, speaking to younger grades about why they did it - kids can ask some gut-wrenching questions. It might also give them a view of how others see them. Repaying the victims through herd work should bs absolutely required. Somehow the crime is closer to home once you get to know the people you've hurt. ~~ DRILY BULL"cTiN RD SERU TEL:r14-94~-9'597 Sul 28.93 11:06 No .015 °.03 x feel the thing looking in the lives of thane kids are dreams, goals and the baiiaf that the goal^ can be attained. The ability to dream and set goals cen be started in kindergarten. I! families aren't teaching it, schools need to. Tha kids need t0 learn t0 think long range - too many era 'tcday' oriented. They need to have hope for a batter Lila. Even the worst lite in this country tar exceeds what is going on on the other side oP the world. Once dreams era identiliefl, people cen bs veiled in who may have realized those soma dreema - from dentists, teachers, veterinarians, doctors, retailers, muriciana, ertista, etc. Everyone needs e,pomitiva rol~poda~__gr matltQ~„c„_,.poma4ne w,jto can prove it cen ba done and to otter encouragement. To the cities and the general community - it's only a matter of time until they use something other than paint. It they want to get paint they'll find a way. Give them chalk - offer a block graffiti oonteat monthly or aeakly to find the real gifted artists emonq ahem. Have a street grettiti contest - block off part of Euclid for a flay and have them draw the street - make n theme - of ter some notoriety !or the most creative, etc., Try to pull them together, identily them, bring them into a positive role in the community. Give them a place to practice for the contest, draw the sidewalks of downtown. I would support and help with my time for any of the ideas I've offered here. I do not want my name printed, but if e volunteer effort ie started you can give them my name. ue~~ea Ontario, CA 91762 3 Co DHILf Htl'~LEi.I+ H:,' ..=FV IE~:,!w-3ud-'.i~i7 J~; ej.73 i~~.ir wa.~.~ .~~ Geetr euttsen, 9a+drY.

Jerry Fulwood stated a packet has been provided to each Task Force member which outlines what othu cities have done, to help them in their goal of creating a recommendation to the City Council.

Mayor Stout asked die Task Force members if they would share what then diftuent agencies do m combat gratfid. 1 ~. Anti-Gmffni Tatk Force Minmes Febrnazy 4, ]993 Page 2 Reed Montgomery stated the Alta Loma School District and oUru elementary school districts have a zero tolerance policy for grefftu on school grounds, Ne same as Ncy do for dings. When Ihey catch the kids, Ney make the parents pay for removal. He fell one of the key things for them is m remove the graffiti before the kids arrive for school, it detests Ne purpose of the uggers. He stated a good working relationship with the Sheriffs Department and the parents has aLSO been a help for them. Dean Smothers slated he agreed with Reed Montgomery. He stated the Chaffey Joint Union High School Board has recently adopted a graffiti policy, N addition m then vandalism policy. He stated Nat on the whole the taggers did not represent the feelings of the majority of the students, and the student body does not like sceing their schools marked up. whether They know who is doing it and would they tell an them, that is an individual matte. Councilmember Buquet smted the hard part of dealing with this problem is that Ne people who are doing it do not see it as anything other than some form of fan and do trot care if it rs causing damage and creating problems for the property owners. Their mentality is that it is a cool thing m do, and these kids are engaging in more malicious damage than kids in Ute pact did. Pekr Nomll sated that the coons for IH and older offenders do not get a lot of cases so he would suspect most offenders are 17 and youngu, and explained what the curtest penalties woe. He stated the Kiwanis Club in Upland has sponsored a Kiwanis Kids club al an elementary school, and the kids artd adults together Take care of the gratffu removal at that school, as well as place peu pressure on perpetrators Brat auend Uw school. He thought Uds was an idea that cold be adapted by odter servke clubs and schools. Cynthia Shelley stated Ney curtenUy have 65 members in the Adopt-A-Wall program, and they were getting ready W do their first City pains-out. She statrd Wey are expbring ways to address the liability question which keeps them from going on private property w remove graffiti at businesses. She stated that several of the developers in dte area are interested in working with them so they arc looking d working Ural into theu program. Rance Clouse sated gmfRti removal is a real challenge in ore business community because you are asking Nc victim of the crime to pay for the cleanup or any (dlow-up action if needed. This places a real burden on busines>es. He slated it is forcing businesses to step back and lode at Uds as a mort Pondamenmi social issue, wlaxe the business needs m reach out beyond itself and say that in ceder m address INs problem they need to become more active in education and prevention programs. He stated the Chambu of Commerce is going m be working on this problem wish a suhcommitJCe. He slated businesses also need m be made aware of the ordinance Nat prohibfls the sale of spray palm to minors, and cane up with ways to display the product but have it in an area where it would be difficult m steal is Councilmembzr Ruquet stated Nay also had m look at trying N have oNer communities limit access a Ne makdals used, otherwise peepk from this aria would bus[ ga m the neighboring city m obtain whet they need, so they should try m come up wiN a model Nat would be palatable to Ne business community Nat mould be adopted by oNu cities. Ikmn Smothers (eh they should identify taggers wiN a more derogatory term, someming Nat was not sq socially accepmble Nat would identify Neu people for the vandals d,ey really are. Mayor Stout equated this situation m a waz situation, and felt Ney would nevu eradicate gmffni entirely. just like any oNu crime, bur wiN Ne rommunity working together, they might be able m slow it down and get a hanNe on it. 1 And-Gr..fhti Task Force Minutes February 4, 1993 Page 3 Councilmemher Buquet stated this problem is not necessarily limited to what has been uadidonally considered the bad clement, a lot of the Nds that have Seen arrested recendy come from some of the better parts of town, He Pelt then nxded to be strongtt consequences for the kids when they arc arrested because the way Ute system is rmw, it does not make an impact on the kids when they are caught. He spoke about some goals for updating the City's ordinances and with working in conjunction with the business community in addressing this problem. lorry $Wlti felt Ney needed to start working with the manufacturers of the paint produce in devising ways the product can still be displayed for marketing purposes, bm in such a manner it makes ft difftvult a steal, and having store personnel be aware when people are purchasing cases of spray paint because no home project would regv've that much. Councilmember Buquet stated Ney also needed to start getting the intomaadon out about the wnsequerices that occur when people are caught, so the community and the perpeuarors know what could happen W them if they are caught He stated it could deter the kids Nat are basically good kids but have gotten caught up in Ibis, and Ney need [o be awam that it's not much tun when you get caught, and how many kids are being caught now. ..~~> B3 Jerry Fulwood went over Ne Reliminary And-Graffiti Task Face Action: t'lan which had been distributed earlier b Ne Task Force. He added Nem wem represenuuves from various groups, such as Ne utility companies, Nat would be available b answer any questions she Task Force may have. Cowcilmember Buquet asked W hear from Cheryl Kams from Southern Califuma FAfson about what Ney are doing about Nis problem. Cheryl Kams staled They have been hit hard in Nc last year in Nis region by graffiti, and they were concerned about prevention, because Nough Ne removal is costly. Ney know Ney can handle that aspect of iL She wanted to recommend having Ne loggers be a pan of Ne process, and have the Task Force interview Nem to get a tester undustanding of what motivates Nem and possibly come up wiN ways m prevent shem from doing Ne grafGtr. She also thought having kids whose parents were business owners and have been hurt by Nis, speak to Ne students at school.

C2. Heidi Kaufman, a resident of Rancho Cucamonga and a law enforcement officer for Ne City of Riverside, felt they needed to talk m the kids and should let them see the graffiti at Ncir xhools on occasion. She felt Nis would make them aware of the probk,m and how it affects them persorully, and could help them to exert peer pressure m the rates who are doing the graffiti. She felt a pogrom similar m Ne "Scared Straight" program might work as a preventative measure. C3. Marie Gessner, resident of Rancho Cucamonga, felt Ne kids that are caught doing graffiti should be personally responsible for correcting Ne problem, such as required clean-up duty. She felt when Ne parents paid Ne Encs, Ne child did not feel Ne~ full consequence of their rations, and Nat they needed to be more accounuble for Ihcir actions. C4.

He felt it waz too dangerous, and he did not want to go m jail for shooting someone, or m be shot himself.

Councilmember Buquet sated Nat trying w match paint colors is an area of concern, and Nere are some walls in wwn Nat need to be completely repainted one color, but Ney needed to establish which colors Ney will be using, and map out the affected walls wiN Ne appropriate colors so Ne crews will know which paint to use. Nick Twello stated he understands Ne budget constraints of Ne City, but feels Nis is something Nat should have been done a long tlme ago.

Nick Turcllo sated he was also inwrested in having an Adopt-A-Wall program, d,t was wld Nat would not be a good choice in his area. Councilmember Buquet stated Ney needed to work through that because he disagreed wiN Nat general assessment, and azsured Mr. Turcllo Nat he and Mayor Swut will be following up on his comments, and Ne amount of money proposed for graffiti removal for Nat area.

He explained dte situation with the State and how they were depicting the revenue sources for cowl government.

He statrA they were looking for >olutions to the budget problems, even if they were politically very difficult, bm that public safety services were the number one priority in this Ciry. Councilmember Buquet concurred with A1ayor Stout, and stated it waz important to Ne Council Nat the safety of its citizens not be compromised b~ause of actions by Ne State. Olga Blind asked if it was correct that Ne City was looking b expand they reserve forces from 39 to 50 personnel. Councilmember Buquet sated Ney currently have 34 Sheri(Ps reserves, which were all Level 1 and one of the best emits in Ne County. He stated Ney are consmntly recruiting to increase that number, but Nere was a cost involved that was home by Nc reserve member.

He stared the biggest problem in Ne area of punishment is that Ne juvenile hall is never going to take people caught doing gmffu due m lack of resewrces. Ne sated they also discussed resBmlion to Ne City when 5ommne is caught, and felt the City should hire a collection agrncy as Ne most efficient means of handling Ne workload. They also felt in the future Ne City should go m a program similar to Nc one in Hesperia, but he stateA a drawback m Nat is Nat you arc always having to get new people involved because there is a high rate of bum-nut. Woody Williams staled another advantage of Ne proposed legislation by Assemblyman Aguiar is that it gives Ne police Ne ability w go m someone's home to collect them far their community service i(Ney do not show up al the assigned spot He felt this would make Community service sentences mote e(fecli ve. Peter Nomll discussed why they did na (eel graffiti removal was an appropriate punishment for Ne vandals And-Graffid Task Force Minutes March Ig, 1993 Page 5 Woody Williams stated the proposed legislarion also would requve the juvenile or their parents reimburse the City for the Worker's Compensation expenses and the supervision overhead associated with doing wmmunity service so the City would not have to spend tax dellars for the community service senWrees. Don Morris asked if die parents could be udlirad in supervising the work crews. Pelcr Norcll stated because of me nauue of the work they were proposing, it might not be feasible (or the parents m participate in the supervision. Larry McNiel stated they had m deal with certain issues when looking at this problem. One was where would you put the kids when they are artested, and curtently then; is rw place, so Ney had m !sole (or alternatives on where it would hit them the hardest cost the kart and no[ be an administrative burden, and ultimately be the moo effective. He stated dray used these guidelines when reviewing suggestions. The Task Force also discussed various detertents Such as liens on the parent's property, curfew enforcement, and crap sweeps. Vince Ellefante state the Busitrcss Suhcommiuce spoke about the need m educate the business community, and spoke about the possibility of implementing this through the Chamber of Commerce almost immediately. He felt they needed m make businesses aware that this is not just a problem of me City, it is also (heir problem because it costs everyone time and money. He hyped i[ would spinoff m other service organfrations as well. Councilmember Buquet sated it has been a challenge m get some of the businesses in [own m go out and cover up the graffiti. He felt they needed m make the owners swam that people are intimidated about going into a business that has graRfti nn its walls, and it dots lose them customers and money. Mayor Srom asked i(Ihe Chamber would be willing m do a special mailer regarding this issue to Neir members. Vince Elle(anle stated they would start by writing a special snick for Tlu Rrsourre magazine. He also though[ maybe the Daily Sul/etin could also help by printing something about where the Task Force is going with the education process. Peter Norell sated the City of Anaheim had a progmm similar m Red Ribbon Weck, which was signified by green ribbems for an anti-gmffid week, and J~ought it would 6e good for the whole valley m participate in a program like chat. Mayor Smut sated the City of Riverside's Police Department executed five grafiui search warrants and went in the residences looking fw graffiti ma~erials. Eric Sieber slated another suggestion was that in conjunction with a Clean Swcep day, they could encourage people to bring in materials laying around the house or garage Ihat could be used for gmffid. Iany McNiel crated it was suggested al the last meeting by Rance Clouse mat they might want to contact a real estate esumamr m get an idea of how graffiti affects property values, and he tell that would be an effective way m approach people. Eric Sieber crated another idea Ney had was to contact the phone company about seuing up some type of cellular paucl for when people are driving around on their daily business and they see kids doing graffitl, there u some place they can call immediately to report it. ~~ Anti-Granti Tazk Force Minutes March Ig, 1993 Page 6 The Task Forte also discussed Ne curter!

Mayor Stout stand they would trot be able to do Nat because if it was private property, they would need permission from Ne property owcer, and i(it was Wblic Property, there would be liability issues involvW. Woody Williams styled Nere would also be issues involved regarding possibly violatlng the civil codes (or false imprisonment, etc. Rance Clouse asked if in regards to private property, could you gel permission ahead of time to go onto Ne property for removal, and then charge dte owner afterwards fu Ne work drat was done. Mayor Stout sated Nat was something he was interested in pursuing. He stated he has been approxhed 6y an individual who would 6e willing to do the removal for businesses on an on-call basin. He stated he world not want w compete wiN privak enteryrise, but Ney might also consider having a program where the City had permission to go in and do Ne clean-up and then bill back at a reaswuble rate.

He asked ifpre-rcgisvatien (or the program could be facilitated Nmugh Ne property ux hills.

VIEW OF RANCHO CUCAMONGA'S PR POS D NTT-GRAFFITI ORDINaNCn Councilmember Buquet stated that on page 3 of the draft ordinance, Section 8.24.050 refers to "Graffiti lmplemcnL" He felt that "Sadao D" at the top of page 3 which defines who[ a graffiti implement is should also include etching device. He thought they might want w also consider adding language that would designate any type of device capable of deFacing properly az a gm(fiu implement m cover any new devices that become popular with die vandals. Councilmember Buquet smted on page 6, Section C, subsatien 1, he would suggest subsdtuling the language txcanse he fell the way it was wriuen now, anyone who owns a house nr block wall would want the City to mmove the gmifid. He would I'Ike m change it to say "...is so located on public or privately owned property viewable from a public orquasi-public place wiNin the City, and there is a duly authorized cost reimbursement agreement on Ole wide the City, the City shall be auNomed to use public funds for the removal of same,..." He stated he would send Ibis to the City Attorney to review and suggest it be inserted to protest the City from people who did not care whether rile graffiti was removed or not Jahn Potter asked (or clarification on what is enforrzable for gUting a judgment against a minor's parents. Councilmember Buquet smtcd there are some proposed bills that deal with dot issue, Peter Norell sated dley are sdll trying m get a package together in Sacamenm and combine I 1 proposed bills into one, but felt thue would 6e a bill passed this time. He stated it currently is the opinion of dm local courts that There are sections in the codes dot allow parents b he liable for up Io 37,500.00 per minor's act, and them have not been loo many cases That surpazsed Thal figure. Dep. Smith, Police Deparunen4 staled they have bxn collecting fines (or juveniles through rile probation process which comes back to the Ciry. John Potter referted back to Section 8.24.050 on page 3, which prohibited possession of graffiti implements in designated public places, and asked if There was anything m the ordinance which would cover commercial developments or private property. Councilmember Buquet staled since this was designed as a municipal ordinance, it would only deal wish public facilities. He stated wish private shopping centers, that issue waz being addressed through tiIe proposed bills in Sacramento right crow, and if something was pazsed, that would pre-ampt The City's regulations. He Thought rite only way They might be ahle m extend That would be if the property was posted, like when it is posted for vehicle coda violations. Peter Norell stated They cannot enforce possession of Implements on private property, but 0cy can enforce under The vandalism codes. He felt it woWd be difficult for the Sheriffs to came onto private property unless it was somehow posted. Councilmember ©uquet soled Jerry Fulwood would follow-up with the City Attomcy on posting requiremenTS for private property. He stated he envisioned the City in conjuncpon wiTh the Chamber of Commerce producing uniform signs That could be sold at a minimal cost to the shopping centers, that way the language was consistent wiN the applicaCle codes. the signs would be easily recognizable and They could be sure iT was correct and enforceable. ~~ Anti-Gmffiu Task Force Minutes May 6, 1993 Page 3 Iarry McNiel refered m Section 8.2A.090, subsection A, "Removal Provisions" found on page 6, and questioned the length of time allowed for removal, as well as Ne difference in the time allowed for Ample who had a graffiti removal program and those that did not. and felt possibly drew amounts of time weic too long since dk community already has an established philosophy for immediate removal. Peter Norell salted they had to have these timelines for due process, and only giving someone a couple of day's notice is not considered reasonabk. Cnuncilmember Buquet stated he agreed with Jae concerns expressed by Larry McNicl. He soled there were very few cases where the City haz m resort to the full time needed fa abakmerll on private property. Richard Akom. Code Enforcement Supervisor, went over We actual time involved m the abatement and enforcemu~t processes fa private property. laity McNiel azked why was ezua time given for someone who has an active graffiti removal pmgmm az opposed to someone who does not. Richard Alcorn, Code Enforcement Supervisor, cured that if a property owner can prove they have a removal program in place, then the City can be confident that it will be removed. If they have a shopping cenux that does trot provide that type of program, dun staff would need m proceed more quickly because there would still he due process issues to contend wiN. He stated the three elements that constitute a program are someone on site that ran identify We graffiti, a sonnet person that gmffiu can 6e reposed m, and either a service or materials available to address the gmffiu removal. Councilmember Buquet sated you have to allow someone a reasonable artwunt of time m remove the graffiti if they have an esablished program. He sated that even though on paper it looked like you wen allowing dcese people m leave the graffiti up longer before they had to remove it. in reality places that have an established program usually remove the gmffiu faster than dte time Aerial allowed. By giving a longer time for abatcrnent to people who have esublished programs, this is an incentive mechanism m get people to set up programs. He stated he envisioned a policy being put into place That when a property owner was contacted about removing the gmffiu and they did tat, then Ne City would do Ne removal and bill the owner, That way it would take care of people who did not want to volunurily respond. The'fazk Force corkurted they should recommend We modified tiro([ ordirunce w the Council (or consideration Peter Norell referred to Sutton 8.24.1(10, and felt Ihey should change the wording from "...performance of community service in dte form of graffiti clean-up to the maximum ezknt. ." m say "pedormanee of community service that may include graffiti ekan-up to the maximum exknt..:' He felt this would better reflect the fcelings of the Task Force that We punishment should not include or be limited to graffiti cleanup, and should consist of other lacks that were more labor intensive. Councilmember Buquet asked Bob Zetkrberg W put togeNer a schedule on what kind o(work would be available during the week that would qualify at wmmuniry service. •. •.r• Cd.

C. ITEMS OF DISCUSSION C L REVIEW OF INLAND VALLEY DA/LY BULLETIN SURVEY OUBSTIONS Larry McNiel went over the three questions prepared for the business community. He asked the Task Farce for input on if dre questions would generate the response they were leaking for. Rance Ciouse stated he felt there needed b be another question asiting i[ people would be willing m financially support efforts m resolve graffiti vandaitsm. He felt this was important because any program would treed funding and the City would ra)t be able to pay for everything. He thought this would eliminate a fight with dre business community about garnering financial support i[ the answer came back yes. ibn Mortis thought maybe they should assume the public would want to support programs, and they should ask how much would they be willing to give. Reed Montgomery sated it was important how the question waz aked because in a recent situation in Fontana, people were asked in a survey if they would pay 560.00 a year to build a new school and they said no; but when asked if they would pay 55.00 per month everyone said yes, even though the end result waz the same. The Task Force discussed whether a not to include an amount in the queuion, and ways the business community could cooperate b help fund some of the programs. Jerry Fulwood, Deputy City Manager, sated dte goal was w finalize the questions this evening so they could be forwarded m the newspaper az sam as possible. tarty McNiel sated in regards ro the questions contained in the agenda package, he would eliminate quesdon B because he felt that concept was covered in die three other questions dray discussed earlier, he would keep questions A and C, and under question D he would list options that people could check that they though[ wUe reasonable penalties. The Task Force suggested the following options m go under question D: driver's license revocation, suspension or postponement, community service, parental financial responsibility, parenal supervision of violator's public service, corrective measure course (similar to frame school), jail time, and other. Edc Sieber felt Nat nn question C they should add a tag line onto the gtxsfion asking what people would do if lhry caught their friend's or neighbor's kid doing graffitl, because (here might be a different response from what they woWd do to their own children. The Task Force corxurted m add quution 7: As a business person, would you financially support a program to resolve the gmffti problem. The Task Force concurted m delete the excess wording on the three questions stating "What antl-grat<ti suggestions would you offer Io the business, educational, cities and general community." rrrrrr ~a Anti Graffiti Task Fotce Minutes May 20, 1993 Page 3 C2.

COMPUTER SYSTEM • NEw NA1tE; TROUBLE GANG NBTG, TG RTD POLICE 1992 ~~ NOTHING BUT TROUBLE GANG (bibliography) Threx ytan ago, the Nothing But Trouble Gang wu only a tagging crew oiled Nothing But Trouble, that engaged in graffiti vandalism and aauional assault on rival nggen. As a tagging crew, Nothing But Trouble wrote their gtaffid by placing their individual t8 names along wiN the crew's initials 'NBT• in an exaggerated script, unlike traditional block style gang graffiti, upon both mobile and fuel laotions. In the spring of 1990, Nothing But Trouble had begun to battle the rival tagging crews for the status of 'most wanted ceew•. During these graffiti wan, Nothing But Trouble began to claim gang status and the frequency of violent crimes involving Nothing But Trouble incroaed. On 0&13-90, we rnrdttcted an invesdgauon of Robbery (211 ~ az Ne Sports Fantasy store in the Century Ciry Mall. We had been following t3 marten of the Nothing But Trouble Gang u they boarded and alighted several bttaa, futaBy artiving u the Century Ciry Mall. As they exited the bus, they saw us attd moved into the maB. tester when we rentrned to the mall, we were informed by mall security that a group of gang members had robbed the Sport Fantasy store. We were told by the store manager that a large group of 'gang members' had rntered the store and, except tot 2 of them, moved to the teu of the stole where they begat[ b [aloe clothing otT the hanger and stuff them into backpacks atW under rhea jacket. The two remaining u the front detained the store manages. grabbed and pushed him to the Boor when he attempted w retrieve his rrtachattdite. This incident, Which resulted in convictions, is an example of a common method that is used by the members of the Nothing But Trouble Gang while committing rwtiberies and burglaries in various busineu esnbtishment. This is known in their slang u ,~~g. While these is tto loation or single address where the Nothing But Trouble Gang conduct their activities or where they sacialire together, the Nothing But Trouble Gang has staked out ~~ a territory which Ney occupy and claim az theirs. This territory includes Ne Leimtrt Park area, north/wat to the Martin LuNer King and Coliseum intersectim. Any inwsian by rival gangs or tagging clews results in a violent confronhtion between the intruding gang or crew, and NC Nohing But Trouble Gang. The Nothing But Trouble Gang frequently will extend thew area of influence by utilizing public trmsportatian. Because many of tfte members attend schools outside of Heir neighborhoods, their graffiti has been found az far north as Reseda and Van Nuya, east to Fl Monte and Whittier, souN ro Long Beach and San Pedro, and west to most cwsW tides. The Nothing But Trouble Gang also uses Ne RTD bus system u a means of transport and concealment mroute to and after they commit Heir crimes, The Nothing But Trouble Gang is involved in tobberiea, stealing ass, burglaries of businesses, violent assaulu, posfasioo of weapons (semi automatic hartdgum, kniva, dubs), graffiti vandalism, and witrtess intimidation. These crimes ale swmmitted aboard RTD buss, u Ne numerous malls thry frequent, and on Ne struts both in and out of their claimed territory. Most of the members of the Nothing But Trouble Gang are still juvenile and because of thu, Ney know that all that will happen w them is that Ney will be booked and Nm released. They know the system, they ]mow that Ney have to be amsted many times wiN something serious before they arc detained or sent to a amp of CYA. Many times the Nohing But Trouble Gang will say that Ney will continue to commit these crimes beptue little or nothing ever happens w them. The Nothing But Trouble Gang boasts Nat Ney do not observe Ne traditiaul gang boundries of recruitment and will accept memfxn thu ale Cries, Bloods, hispanic, or white. They have also formed alliancea wiN Ne Black P Stones and RoWng 60's Cries. While Nerc is no toed loation from which Ure Nothing But Trouble Gang operates, Ney have a sophistiated communiation network Nat enables the gang to gaNer information on Ne potia to avoid detation of Netr criminal udviry. WiN the 8~ use of radio scanners and lookouts {either standing at a distance or riding bicycles), the Nothing But Trouble Gang is able b inform its members, via telephone, hand gestures, or whistles, the location and activities of the police. As an example, during the summa of 1990, tite RTD Police unduwvu 'GEORGE' units notified dispatch, while in the City of Vernon, that they would be conducting a surveillence in the Van Nuys area. Upon their arrival at that logtion, several manber of the Nothing But Trouble Gang approached the officers and asked 'are you here for the taid7'. It had taken the officers a little ova an hour to arrive and set up at that location. During that tirtte, the Nothing But ?rouble Gang was able to heu the RTD Police Officers' kcation and dispatch members there to approach them. The Nodring But Trouble Gang cantinously teuuits tagger belonging to the surrowding crews to join u active manbers, Wising their stales hom 'graffiti writer' m gang members. Unlike traditional gang methods of hating or'jumping in' then member, the Nothing But Trouble Gang will permit an individual to join wiNOUt an initiation providing the interab of the recruit are wmpatible with those of the gang. With the absence of accountability for their actions (due to ezising juvenile laws) and the ineffectiveness of thou probation, the mme incideno involving the Nothing But Trouble Gang are increasing and becoming more violent u thry grow in status within the gang community. 83 G.H.O.S.T.

'cGy Mr. Jack Lam City of Rancho Cucamonga F.C. lox 307 Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91729 re: Ordinance Requiring the Lockup of Aerosol Paint and Felt Tip Markers Dear Mf,.l~mt: ~%` ~- In many communities, the occurrence of graffiti has become a major concern. Lace many of you, the City of Ontario recently launched a major effort toward curtailing Otis crime. We are sending this letter to all surrounding jurisdictions in hope that we can coordinate our program actions. Ontario has established a preliminary program which addresses graffiti at three levels: 1) the criminaljustice system; 2) education; and 3) graffiti removal. For your information, we have enclosed a handout prepared for the public at our City Council meeting on graffiti. The handout outlines the issue of graft 8 and presents a profile of the "typical" violator and includes a list of preliminary ideas as collected from the citizens, City Council, and City staff. We recogniTe tha[ graffiti is a regional problem and calls for the joining of forces of all jurisdictions, from Kellogg Hill to Rialto. While Ontario is currently working with the County in a coordinated effort between cities, we wish to keep up the momentum by quickly implementing as many programs as feasible. We are seeking your help anJ cooperation. We have found that many jurisdictions have ordinances that prohibit the sale of paint and felt tip mazkers to minors and require retailers to lockup these items. These ordinances are enforced in most of the Los Angeles County area but not necessarily in the San Bernardino County area. Ontario has recently sent letters to its retailers informing them of our Ordinance, asking them to comply, and notifying them that we will suictly enforce the requirement in AFril. To be effective, however, we all must enforce such an ordinance or the offenders will simply cross jurisdictional lines to purchase (or more often, to steal) their paint or markers. We have attached our letter to retailers and a copy of our existing Ordinance. We urge you to act immediately to enforce your ordinance (or amend your ordinance to include this provision), and remove the easy accessibility of spray cans and markers. If your city has a swap meet, you may wish to include a provision in your ordinance that prohibits the sale of spray paint to minors and requires them to be locked up. We have been informed that swap meets are a popular place for minors to purchase spray paints. They pay SL00 /Da for a can and have no difficulty making the purchase even though i[ is unlawful to sell to minors. This is just a small step, but is an important first step in working wgether to convol the graffiti problem which has cost us all so much in time, money, and effort This letter is being sent to all cities and counties from Kellogg HID m Rialto. We will be contacting these cities cext month w gather information and we will gladly pass this information on to you ff you have any questions, please contact Lloyd Scharf at City of Ontario, Citypride, (909)391.58(8. Thank you in advance. i~rely, G. Michael Milhiser City Manager Enclosures: Handout on Graffiti Lever to Retailers Ontario Municipal Code, Chapter 14, Graffiti Suppression vm ~~ GRAFFITI Background, Current Strategies, and Future Solutions (i1TYpRIDE ONTARIO J0~ The Iwo Drimary scarce groups nl graNiti in the West End (Kelbgg Hill Background to Fontana) are (f )'Taggers' and (2) Gangs. It is esrvnatetl by persaa net in the Ontarb Public Works Department that approximatery 8096 0l the graffiti in the Ciry is the work of taggers. . 'Tagging' is actually a game between groups or'crews' competing to mark the greatest number W buildings or areas. Successful groups gain recognition, sett esteem and even fame from other groups and peers at school There are over !)00 taggers in Onlarb, in approximately 4p groups consisting of 20 to 40 members. Taggers are generatly non-viD- lenl and not gang members. They are students maintaining slightly above average grades. Their ages range from twelve to eighteen and they tend to live al home with their parents. Gang members use graNiti to mark Ne'u territory. There are approxF mately 23 identified gangs operating in Ontarb wiM approximately 3,500 members. As a resuH d the increased occurrence and awareness d gratlfil Public Awareness Ontario's programs and procedures have been tested for then respon- siveness and eNectiveness in atldressing the gralfitl problem.

Title 6, Chapter 74 of Ne Ontario Municipal Code (OMC) outlines IDs Existing City Ciry's'Graffid Suppression'standards. In summary, thischapter of the OrdlnanCe Ofv1C requires Inal where graNiti exists on a pdvatety owned sWCture, the owner of Ihat sVUCture is obligated to remove IDs graNiti within tll- teen days Idkwring notice from the Ciry. Thia requirement ones rat apply if the owner consents to albw the Ciry to remove Ina graNiti, Title 6, r'hanter to of the Ontario Municipal Code also regulates the sale of aerosd paint containers antl broad tipped Jett markers. The Ordinance prohibits any parson, firm or corporation, except a parent ar legal guardian, b seN or in arty way tarnish b anoUer person under Ue age of eighteen, any aerosd paint container or tell tip marker. Adtlitbnally, retailers are required to bck up, or make unavailable except Dy special request, any aerosol paint containers a fell tip mark- ers.

The City of Gntario Public Services Agency operates a Graflili Removal Program. The Goal of the graffiti removal program is to remove graflitl Irom pdvale and public propeNas within 48 hours of ratification. Fbwever, due to the recent increase in graffiti, Nis objective can not be met without Ne assistance of public volunteers, Three fulFtime person- nel are devoted to Ne removal program. The Cily sponsors a voluntear program and a growing number of citizens ere now invoked in graffiti removal. Since July 1992, the Graffiti Removal Program has removed nearly ZM,000 square feel of gra8iti. Even ltxwgh this amount b significant, City Crews are unable to keep up wiN Ne increased activity. The fl5cal year budget for 1492-1993 is 5163,000, rat including approximatety y50,0001or empbyees antl equipment on ben from Ne Parks Departrnent. In fiscal year 1991-1992. the City contracted for greMti removal services, costing 5250,000. (Note: these amounts are any far Ne removal of graffiti and do nd kalude pofice department costs far prevention and law enforcement) The Ciry's current efforts concentrate on graffiti removal. It is now apparent Mat a coortlinated prevention, removal, and law enforcement program must be establishetl, in atldilbn, Ne graffiti issue will be best adtlressed in coordination vnN other bcal government jurisdictions. Ideas for varaus strategies to address the graffiti problems ere listed below. These ideas are Ne beginning of a rgllectbn of approaches Nat have been or can be used to help sohe Ne graffiti problem. Some of these can be easily and quickly implemented. oNers require Ne deveF oprnenl o! a more complex program, and others may prove ineppropd- ate for Ontario. The goal at Nis point is to gather informatbn and ideas to foster a creative end comprehensive approach to solving Ne greflN problem.

Hox 807 Rancho Cucamonga CA 91729 Dear Mr. Fulwood: I am responding to your request for information on graffiti resources that are currently used by the City of Upland. We, too, are grappling with this blight. We currently have an ordinance before the City Council regarding the mandatory locking up of writing instruments used for graffiti, as do several of our neighboring cities. We have also included in this ordinance a provision for the City to step in and remove the graffiti if the property owner (or person in charge of the property, etc.) does not comply, with all costs being assessed to that person held responsible. We have two codes on the books regarding graffiti -- one states that it is prohibited on public property and another that it is prohibited on private property. As far as graffiti removal goes, in one section oP our City we have the advantage of CDBG funding to remove graffiti from private property. We try to keep it to a minimum oP two removals before we ask the property owner to take over. In the remainder of the City, graffiti on private property is to be remcved by the property owner. We are, however, trying to establish a policy wherein property that backs up to a street and has no access to that street will be able to have the graffiti removed by City crews. Another portion of the City is in the proceee of being declared eligible for more CDBG funding and when that happens, we will have a graffiti removal program 1n that eras. Graffiti on public property is presently removed by Clty crews. We rely on the Poet Office, rnilroad. and utility /~3 4(i0 Nonh Euchd Avenue • Post O(Ilce Box 460 • Uplantl.

Our DARE program is currently becoming active through the scrioola in an adopt-a-wall program. We also have a Kiwanis involvement in occasional graffiti paint outs. Our local YMCA is participating in several paint outs during April. Aa far as education goes, the DARE program is active in this as well as Code Enforcement -- Code Enforcement has a graffiti flyer, graffiti buttons, and graffiti trash bags that are placed on gublic counters and/or mailed to the citizens. Presentations have been made by Code Enforcement to various schools and service clubs. Thanks to the recent publicity, our community is becoming very aware of and active in graffiti removal. We get many calla from people who fat us know they have voluntarily decided to adopt an area. Our citizens are becoming more responsible in paying attention to what goes on in their neighborhoods.

'~q.~ {!j i.o ,. o." ~'i ~.~:y.ti J,, RE: An ordinance relating to the prevention and removal of graffiti and other inscribed material and establishing the payment of a reward for information leading to the conviction of graffiti inscribers. Dear Mayor Stout: In recent years, acts of graffiti vandalism have taken on a startling new intensity as bands of youths, commonly known as "taggers,^ compete with one another to see who can do the most damage and gain the most notoriety. Unfortunately, as the problem escalates so do the costs. Last year, cities in the Walnut/POIDOnd Valley spent an estimated $983,086 to remove, repair, or replace property damaged with graffiti. According to some estimates, local cities will spend almost $1.3 million dollars this year to abate graffiti. While costa continue to escalate, local government, much to the consternation of the public, is seemingly less able to curb the surge in vandalism. To combat the increased occurrence in graffiti vandalism and to minimize its impact on the City's financial re- sources, the Diamond Bar city Council adopted ordinance 2 (1993) on April 2, 1993. This Ordinance, a copy of which is enclosed for your convenience, represents a "zero- tolerance" approach to the graffiti problem by establishing a comprehensive strategy aimed at the prevention and removal of graffiti through: (1) assisting and encouraging property owners to cooperatively engage in measures to prevent graffiti, as well as to remove graffiti from their property in a timely and beneficial manner; ~~ / GARY C.

Recently, the City launched upon an intensive public education and information campaign designed to heighten community awareness about the City's graffiti program. The cornerstone of thiv campaign is a 30 second public service announcement that will air on cable television. In addi- tion, the City plans to target junior high and high school age students by distributing materials aimed at informing them of the direct personal consequences of violating the City's Ordinance, or any state law pertaining to vandalism of property with a graffiti implement. If you would like to receive a copy of the public service announcement or any r~f~ Letter to Mayor stout May 5, 1993 Page Three of the other aaterials discussed herein, please contact Troy Butzlaff, Assistant to the City Manager, at X909) 396-5666. While we believe our approach will be an effective weapon in the campaign against graffiti, the City Council recog- nizes that qra tfiti transcends jurisdictional boundaries and is not just an issue cf local concern Gut is one of regional significance. Therefore, we are encouraging all cities within the Walnut/POIDOna Valley to consider adopt- ing a similar measure or amending existing ordinances so that the region can wage a coordinated effort against graffiti and bring an end to the plague that Ss upon us. I appreciate the opportunity to share with you the City~a ongoing efforts towards curtailing this senseless crime. if you have any questions regarding the City~e ordinance, please contact my office at (909) 396-5668. sincerely, ~ % Gary G.

(i) The City Council finds and dac lama Chat graffiti on public end private property is a blighting factor which not only depreciates the value of the property which hen bean the target of each malicious vandalism, but which aUo dapreciata^ the value of the adjacent and aurroundinq properties gad thereby negatively impacts the entire community. (ii) The City Couacil.furthes finds and determine that the inscription of graffiti may De aeociated with criminal activity and delinquency and anises graffiti and other inaetihed material in ramowd from property it tends to regain and other prapeztiea era than the target of graffiti with the result that entire neighborhoods, and the City is general, are made a lea desirable place to be.

During the 1970'sgnffiti proli(ent- edand tazpayen paid dearly to have it removed. In the 1980's, tazpayen arc continuing to pay and local govcn- ment is plagued with removal and control of gnffiti. The psychology of gnffiti is diffi- cult io pmtpoim becaux the motivat• ing for«s vary. As with mmt vandal- ism, gra fti ti can bs destructive behavior and the result of pent-up anger or frustration. It also can be an art form, or a vehicle (or dialogues (n some neighborhoods graffiti is just a way n( leaving a personal mark. In other neighborhoods it u a way of marking turf by different gangs. There are even graffiti wan between warring gangs. Understanding the motive for graf• fifi in a community will help in calving l8 the problem. There u no single ulu- Lion. Generally, cities have taken two approaches to dealing with gnffiti. The techninl approach u rnncemed with removal that u efficient and eco- namical, baud on the theory that when gnffiti appears, a should be removed ss quickly ss possible be• cauu gnffiti begeb more graffiti. A ucond approach focuses more dirccdy on the causes of the problem by working with the groups most typi- tally rnponsiblc for gnffiti. Technicgl•Approac6 Thc City of Saran Clan (90,761) chase to fight their graffiti problem with ume new technologies. They were (aced with the task of removing graffiti from two redevelopment fires, an office maih and a pedptdan over- pass. The cost for in-house personnel and equipment was considered exees• sive, given the infrequent use the city would make of the equipment. Santa Clues contracted with a pri- vate company far cleaning and styling of cleaned surfaces. The contnetor used atrailer-mounted high prtssure washer to clean surfaces and waled h h gnffiti with a pad and washed off. One man can eazily do the work of four men removing gnffiti from un- sealed surface. The toiler-mounted high pressure washer with pare and supplies would have cost the city 586,000 to operate with two city personnel doin8 the work. The contactor did the one-time project for SI9,850. This represenu 872 person-houn of labor and equip meat use. Only two person-houn per month will 6e needed to remove subu- quent gnffiti with a total personnel savingf of 53,400 per year. ((person- nel savings alone are considered the contract would pay far itself in siz ni eight years. The Southwest Innovation Group (SIG(, a conunium of cities interests in identifying, testing, and using new technologies, was instrumental in help ing Santa Clan identify the new tech• nology and locate the contractor. O[her technologies include high pressure water at 800 poi to remove marking from sur(acp, and chemical strippers to loosen pigments before application of high pressure water.

Another piecc of legislation intro- doted by Asxmbiyman Alatorte in 1976 was AB 25)0 which passed and became Section 53069.3 of the Gov- ernment Cade. This legislation autho- rued cities and counties to use public funds to remove graffiti from private property. The California Constitution don not allow the 'gtft" of public funds for privatc use. Section 53069,3 declares that the rcmoval of graffiti from private property, under pre- scribed conditions, is a proper public municipal purpose and therefore not a 'gift.' Thc Government Code requires a city or county to duct an ordinance providing far ux of public funds far graffiti removal from private propeny and spccifia under what condiuom graffiti may be removed.

Palo Alto has a tradition of provid- ing an rothe pubhrhrough us "Art in Public Places Program' which has op- crated far approximately six ywn. Through this program the City has purchased, commissroned or obtained art for display in public place. Early in 1980, through a City cap flat impravemcnt program, the City had murals painted in three uttder- pasxs and on one community «n[er. For cach of ;he projects, junior and high school studcnu were ulected to work with three local, profasiooal moralise. The walls to be painted overt clcaned, the murals were painted with special paint and then the walls were covered with a gra((iti xal, mak- ing it easy to rcmave other markings. Palo Alto's approach of involving students who would idcntify with the an and not graffiti appcan to have worked. Graffiti in the underpasses has decreased. A citizen oburved some studenu peeling off a penion of a mural in one of the underpasses and reported them. The students who helped paint the murals were inccnxd. Those who vandalized the munb were requircd to pay for paint to repair the art work. State Actiotu Local governments are no[ alone in the fight against graffiti. There have bccn attempts through the state legis• lativc process to make it easier for tool governmcnts to control graffiti.

I was asked to produce this work product by our Mayor Pro Tem, Len Moore, due to his participation in a San Diego League committee created to address the graffiti problem from a County-wide perspective. This proposed "Modal Graffiti Ordinance" attempts to collect in a single document the legislative approaches of various cities throughout the State. Somewhere between 25 to 35 ordinances were examined. Zn addition, it incorporates some new thinking for which I would like to take credit, or blame as the case may be. It also is designed to "dove tail" with existing state lew, most of which is captured in the endnotes. I refer to it as a "cafeteria style" ordinance because it is organized in modular units by conceptual legislative responses to graffiti, and is designed to permit a city to "pick and chose" which parts they like. Although it was intended to be comprehensive, it is still a "first effort". It needs careful scrutiny and "polite" criticism by the incisive legal minds of the members oP our association. Z would have preferred it be reviewed before presertinq it to the County League Committee, but Councilman Moore is rflqueating it be sent noting City Attorney review pending. Please circulate a copy of it with the minutes so ae to permit a more comprehensive review at our meeting of July 25. 173 Proposed ordinance Concepts to Address the Graffiti Nuisance Prepared and/or Compiled by Hruce M.

New concept derived from Graffiti subcommittee meeting in Chula vista. Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 9.20.010. 7. There is generally no need to repeat State Law, and in many cases, the pre-emption doctrine makes any attempt to do so a' useless practice. In this regard, Penal Code, Section 594, provides. Vandalism; penalty (a) Every person who maliciously (1) defaces with paint or any other liquid, (2) damages, or (3) destroys any real or personal property not his or her own, in cases otherwise than those specified by state law, is guilty of vandalism.

(c) Upon conviction of any person under this section for acts of vandalism consisting of writing graffiti, the court may, in addition to any punishment imposed under subdivision (b), at the victim's option, order the defendant to either clean up and repair the damaged property himself or herself, or to pay for someone else to do so." See also, Penal Code, Section 594.1, which makes the sale or furnishing to minors of spray paint cans illegal: Aerosol containers of paint (a) It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, or corporation, except a parent or legal guardian, to sell or give or in any way furnish to another person, who is in fact under the age of 18 years, any aerosol container of paint that is capable of defacing property without first obtaining bona fide evidence of majozity and identity. For purposes of this subdivision, "bona fide evidence of majority and identity" is any document evidencing the age and identity of an individual which has been iaeued by a federal, state, or local governmental entity, and includes, but is not limited to, a motor vehicle opnrator's license, a registration certificate issued under the federal Selective Service Act, or an identification card lsauad to a member of the armed forces.

(b) It shall be unlawful Por any person under the aqa of 18 years to purchase an aerosol container of paint that is capable of defacing property. (c) Every retailer selling or offering for sal• in this state aerosol containers of paint capable of defacing property shall poet in a conspicuous place a sign in letters at least throe-eighths of an inch high stating: "Any parson who maliciously defaces real or personal property with paint gzaf l9. wp Conceptual Graffiti Ordinance Tuly 15, 1991 page 15 /~'S7 is guilty of vandalism which is punishable by a fine, imprisonment, or both."

As used in this subdivision "posted" means a sign placed in a reasonable location or locations stating it is a misdemeanor to possess a spray can of paint in such public facility, park, playground, swimming pool, beacR or recreational area without valid authorization. (e) Zt is unlawful for any person under the age of 18 years to possess an aerosol container of paint for the purpose of defacing property while on any public highway, street, alley, or way, or other public place, regardless of whether that person is or is not in any automobile, vehicle, or other conveyance. (f) Violation of any provision of this section is n misdemeanor. See also Penal Code, Section 640.5, which creates a special crime of apply graf liti on facilities or vehicles oL a governmental entity: Graffiti; facilities or vehicles of governmental entity, etc.; punishment (a) Any person vho writes, sprays, scratches, or otherwise affixes graffiti on or in the tacilitias or vehicles of a governmental entity, as delinad by Section 811.2 of the Government Code, or on or in the facilities or vehicles of a public transportation system es daiinad by section 99211 of the Public Utilities Coda, or on or in the facilities of or vehicles operated by entities subsidized by, the Department of Transportation, or on or in any leased or rented facilities or vehicles for which any of the above entities incur costa of cleanup, repair, or replacement is guilty of an intraction punishable by a fine nut to exceed two hundred fifty dollars ($250) and by community service for a total time not to exceed 48 hours over a period not Co exceed 70 days, during a time other than dur,inq his or hsr hours of school attendance or employment.

(2) If a minor is personally unable to pay any fine levied for violating subdivision (a), the parent or legal guardian of the minor shall be liable for payment of the lino. A court may waive payment of the fine by the parent or legal guardian upon a finding oP goad cause. (c) Any fine levied for a violation of subdivision (a) shall be credited by the county treasurer pursuant to section 14b3.z9 to the governmental entity having jurisdiction over, or responsibility for, the facility or vehicle involved, to be used for removal of the graffiti. Before crediting these fines to the appropriate governmental entity, the county may determine the administrative costs it has incurred pursuant to this section, and retain an amount equal to those costs. Any community service which is required pursuant to subdivision (a) of a person under the age of le years may be performed in the presence, and under the direct supervision, of the person's parent or legal guardian. (d) As used in this section, graffiti means any form of unauthorized painting, writing, or inscription regardless of the content or nature of the material used in the commission of the act. However, the Penal code invites Cities to perticipate in some regulation making activity relative to the sale of spray paint cans or other "defacabla liquids" by Penal Coda, Section 594,5, which provides as follows: " Nothing in this code shall invalidate an ordinance of, nor be construed to prohibit the adoption of an ordinance by, a city, city and county, or county, it such ordinance regulates the sale of aerosol containers of paint or other liquid substances capable of defacing property." grafl9.wp Conceptual Graffiti Ordinance July 15, 1991 Page 17 ~j o Possible pre-emption problem. 9. As noted above, State Law makes it illegal to sell of give spray can to a minor, but does not address "possession" of same by a minor. This section is intended to fill that gap. 10, Chula Vista ordinance, Section 9.20.040(b). 11. IL the "Possession by Minors" provision above is enacted, this section may still be useful to prohibit adults from having spray cans in designated public places. l2. Idea copied from City of Westminster, Chapter 9.38.040. 13. vehicle code, Section 13202.6 permits suspension or delay in issuance of a driver's license of one year for each conviction of graffiti as follows: conviction of person aged 13 to 21 for vandalism by defacing property with paint or any other liquid; suspension or delay of driving privilege; reduction of period for community service (a) (1) For each conviction of a parson for any of tense spncitied in subdivision (d), committed while the parson was 13 years of age or older, the court msy suspend the person's driving privilege for one year. It the parson convicted does not yet have the privilege to drive, the court may order the department to delay issuing the privilege to drive for one year subsequent to the time the person becomes legally eligible to flriva. However, it theta is no further conviction for any offense apocilied in subdivision (d) in a 12-month period after the conviction, the court, upon petition of the parson atfactad, may modify the order imposing the delay of the privilege. For each auccaasiva offense, the court shall suspend the parson'e driving privilege for those possessing a license oz delay the eligibility for those not in possession o! a licnnaa et the time of their conviction for one additional year. (2) Any parson whose driving privilege 1• suspended or delayed for an act involving vandalism in violation of Section 594 0! the Panel coda, may elect to reduce the period of suspension or delay imposed by the court by performing community service under the supervision of the probation department. Tha period of suspension or delay ordered under paragraph (1) shall be reduced at the rata of one day Ior each hour of community service performed.

The court shall, within 10 days following the conviction; transmit a certified abstract of the conviction, together with any drivers licenses surrendered, to the department. (2) Violations of restrictions imposed pursuant to this section are subject to Section 14607.

(d) This section applies to violations involving vandalism in violation of Section 594 of the Penal Code by defacing property with paint or any other liquid. (e) The suspension, restriction, or delay of driving privileges pursuant to this section shall ba in addition to any penalty imposed upon conviction of any violation specified in subdivision (d). 14.

Chula vista Municipal Code, Seetion 9.20.040, originally derived from officer Dan Holian, Chula Vista Police Department. 24. Tha regulatory aspect of this provision is admittedly controversial because it impasse a duty on all ?arsons to "lock up" their "graffiti-ables" when they are not present. The sub- committee on gratiiti ended up approving the provision, but Statt invites the council to debate thn philosophical aspects: A. What is the purpose o! the provision? To reduce vandal access to "graffiti-ables. B. How effective is the provision to achieve the intended purpose? Staff believes that a significant amount of graffiti- ables (probably more spray cans than markers) are obtained as a result o! theft from open and unattended garages, storage rooms, etc. Staff believes that mare discussion of the provision will help raise the level of awareneea o! reaidants of the problem and help to keep garages and storage rooms closed and locked wham they are not in attendance. c. What are the undesired consequences? Vnfortunataly, the regulation constitutes an intrusion into the private lives o! non-vandals in order to help control a serious, community-wide problem. We have attempted to mitigate the intrusive effect by putting a restrictive enforcement policy in the ordinance which provides that the section is not to be enforced except ghsn its violation has contributed to an act of graffiti vandalism. 25. A particular ;urisdiction may wish to add: "not to exceed $1,500.00" or sours other amount. grafl9.wp Conceptual Graffiti Ordinance Suly 15, 1991 I~ Page 22 S 26. The theory of these type of provisions is to shift the cost of removal to the property owner on whose property the graffiti is located. 27. Chula Vista Municipal Code Section 9.20.015. See also San Marcos Municipal code Section 10.70.20(b). 28, Credits for this idea to the author. 29. The theory of this section is not to have the City absorb the cost of removal, but to simply get access to the property to remove the offending graffiti. 30. Government Code, Section 53069.3, designed to avoid the use of a "gift of public fund" challenge to the expenditure of public funds to remove graffiti from private property, provides as follows: "Repair of defaced public or private permanent structures; ordinance; public Eunds; consent of owner. A city or county may enact an ordinance to provide for the use of city or county funds to remove graffiti or other inscribed material Prom public or privately ovned permanent structures located on public or privately owned real property within such city or county. Such ordinance shall only authorize the removal of the graffiti or other inscribed material itself, and not the painting or repair of a more extensive area. Such removal may be performed, only after a finding by the city or county that the graffiti or other inscribed material is obnoxious, and, in the case o! a publicly owned structure, only after securing the consent of the public entity having jurisdiction over the structure, and in the case of a privately owned structure, only after securing the consent of the owner. As used in this section, "gratliti or other inscribed material" includes any unauthorized inscription, word, figure, ar design that is marked, etched, scratched, drawn, or painted on any structural component of any building, structure, or other facility, regardless of the nature of the material of that structural component. This section does not preclude the abatement of graffiti or other inscribed material as a nuisance pursuant to Section 25845 or 38773.5, or the enactment or enforcement of any criminal law with respect to nuisance. 31. Please note Imperial Beach provision conditioning the authority of the City to authorize the removal of graffiti, bneea on Government Code Section 53064.3. This seems contrary to the grafi9.wp Conceptual Graffiti ordinance July 15, 1991 Page 23 19~ authority of the City to correct nuisances, and is not recommended by this author: "Where a structure is privately owned, the removal of the graffiti may be authorized only after acquiring the consent, release, and waiver of the owners. The City shall obtain such consent, release, and waiver by placing a Graffiti Removal Authorization Form on the premises and the same 'is returned to the City." 32. one such form may look like the following: GRAFFITI WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY The undersigned warrants and represents that the undersigned is the owner of the property hereinbelow set forth ("Property^j, or i5 acting on behalf of, and as agent for the owner, of the Property in connection with granting the permissions and making the promises herein contained. The City of Chula Vista, its councilpersons, off tears and employees, its volunteers, representatives and agents, the graffiti removal sponsors, and the persons specifically described below, or any of their egenta, employees and assigns ("Indemnitees"), may have offered, or may have participated in the offering to the undersigned, to remove graffiti existing on the Property, and it is our desire to grant permission to Indemnitees and to do so on the terms and conditions herein contained.

The undersigned acknowledges that grafllti removal may involve certain risks to the Undersigned and Property Owner which include, but are not limited to, the potential for injury to persons or damage to property, including damage from inappropriately matched paint color. I hereby assume all of the such risks. 2. In consideration for attempting to ramous Gzaltiti from the Property, I hereby take action far myself, my spouse, my principal, owner of the Property, executors, administratorr, heirs, next of kin, successors, and assigns as follows: (A) waive, release and discharge Indemnitess from any and all liability for my death, disability, personal injury, property damaga, property theft or actions o! any kind which may hereafter accrue to Indamnitaes from this activity. grafl9.wp Conceptual Graffiti Ordinance July 15, 1991 / ~~~ Page 24 (B) indemnify, defend and hold Indemnitees harmless from any and all liabilities, costs, expenses, expenditures and claims made by other individuals or entities who have suffered or claim to have suffered loss, injury or damage during their attempt to remove graffiti from the Property except for those claims arising from the sole negligence or sole willful conduct of the Indemnitees. This Waiver, Release and Indemnity shall be construed broadly to provide a release and waiver to the maximua extent peroissible under applicable law. 2 hereby certify that I have read this document, and i understand its content. Specific Indemnitee5: Signature Date Signature Date 33. Note that Cities typically already have a nuisance abatement procedure under their "property maintenance" provisions, and hopefully one which meets the requirement of dun process. Referral to those proceedings could ba made at this point rather than reiteration here. Santa Clare's and Radland'e ordinance has what appears to be a good abatement procedure which cities may prefer over this one. 34. Government Code Section 38773, provides for summary abatement of nuisances at the expense of the person maintaining same, and provides that by ordinance, may make the expense of abatement a lien against the property: " The legislative body may provide for the summary abatement of any nuisance at the expanse of the parsons creating, causing, committing, or maintaining it and by ordinance may make thn expense of abatement of nuisances e lien against the property on which it is maintained and a personal obligation against .the property owner, in accordance with Section 38777.1 or 38773.5. Section 78773.1, provides authority to establish liens against property containing nuisances, as follows: (a) The legislative body may by ordinance establish a procedure to collect abatement and related administrative costs by a nuisance abatement lien. This ordinance shall require rotica prior to the recordation of the lino to the owner of record of the parcel of land or which the nuisance graf l9.wp Conceptual Graffiti Ordinance July 15, 1991 Paga 25 198 is maintained, based on the last equalized assessment roll or the supplemental roll, whichever is more currant. (b) The notice shall be served in the same manner as summons in a civil action in accordance with Article 3 (commencing with Secticn 415.10) of Chapter 4 of Title 5 of Part 2 of the code of Civil Procedure. If the owner of record, after diligent search cannot be Pound, the notice may be served by posting a copy thereof in a conspicuous place upon the property for a period of 10 days and publication thereof in a newspaper of general circulation published in the county in which the property is located pursuant to Section 6062. (c) A nuisance abatement lien shall be recorded in the county recorder's office in the county in which the parcel of land is located and from the date of recording shall have the force, affect, and priority of a judgment lien. (1) A nuisance abatement lien authorized by this section shall specify the amount of the lien, the name of the agency on whose behalf the lien is imposed, the date of the abatement order, the street address, legal description and aseaasor's parcel number of the parcel on which the lien is imposed, and the name and address of the recorded owner of the parcel. (2) In the event that the lien is discharged, released, or satisfied, either through payment or foreclosure, notice of the discharge containing the information specified in paragraph (1) shall be recorded by the governmental agency. A nuisance abatement lien and the release of Lhe lien shall be indexed in the grantor- grantae index. (3) A nuisance abatement lien may be foreclosed by an action brought by the city for a money judgment. (4) Notwithstanding Section 6103, Section 27383, or any other provision of law, the county recorder may impose a Pee on the city to reimburse the costs of procesainq and recording the lien and providing notice to the property owner. A city may recover from the property owner any coats incurred regarding the procesainq and recording o! the lien and providing notice to the property owner as part of its foreclosure action to enforce the lien. As en alternative procedure, Government Coda, Section 38773.5, permits the establishment of procedures for the abatement of a nuisance; and permits the cost of abatement to constitute a special assessment against parcel, as tollowa: As an alternative to the procedure authorized by Section 38777.1, the legislative body may by ordinance establish a procedure for the abatement of a nuisance and grafl9.wp conceptual Graffiti Ordinance July 15, 1991 ~~ ^ Page 26 make the cost of abatement of a nuisance upon a parcel of land a special assessment against that parcel. The assessment may be collected at the same time and in the same manner as ordinary municipal taxes are collected, and shall be subject to the same penalties and the same procedure and sale in case of delinquency as provided for ordinary municipal taxes. All laws applicable to the levy, collection and enforcement of municipal taxes shall be applicable to the special assessment. However, if any real property to which the cost of abatement relates has bean transferred or conveyed to a bona fide purchaser for value, or if a lien of a bona fide encumbrancer for value has been created and attaches thereon, prior to the data on which the first installment of the taxes would become delinquent, then the cost of abatement shall not result in a lien against the real property but instead shall be transferred to thn unsecured roll for Collection. Notices or instruments relating to the abatement proceeding or special assessment shall be entitled to recordation. Government Code, Section 38773.7 permits the City to recover treble damages for a second or subsequent civil or criminal judgment in connection with the abatement o! a nuisance: " The legislative body, by ordinance, may provide that upon entry of a second or subsequent civil or criminal judgment within a two-year period finding that an owner of property is responsible for a condition that may be abated in accordance with an ordinance enectad pursuant to Section 38773.5, except for conditions abated pursuant to Section 17980 of the Health and 8alety Coda, the court may order the owner to pay treble the costs of the abatement. 35. Lawndale told that graffiti removal may not ba an eligible use of CDBG funds. 36. Revenue and Taxation Coda, Section 7287, permits a city or county to levy a tax by an ordinance approved by two-thirds of the electors voting on the measure, on the privilege of selling at retail within the city or county "aerosol paint containers, containers of any other marking substance, felt tip markers which have a flat or angled surface of 1/2 inch or greater, or any other marking instruments" of $.30 per container or $.OS per marker-type instrument. The city must contract with the state Board of Equalization to perform administrative functions, for which they are to be paid "off the top" from the proceeds, and the tax levy must be repealed within Pive ynare. The tax will be collected from purchasers by the retailers, Tha proceeds o! the tax "shall only be expanded by that local entity for purposes o! the removal and prevention of graffiti, os for educationel grafl9.wp Conceptual Graffiti Ordinance July 15, 1991 Page 27 O~ programs for at-risk youth to combat graffiti vandalism in all its forms." There is the prospect for a tax independent of this state authority, particularly for charter cities. 77. Credits for this idea to author. 38.

This provision has to be analyzed as possibly discouraging removal by the property owner. a1. This provision has to be analyzed as possibly discouraging removal by the property owner. 42. Palo Alto has such a program. 43. Certain authorities believe that intensified removal, pre- vention and punishment efforts fuel the psyche of the graffiti artist, spurring more intensive graffiti. These authoritiss suggest that providing certain designated walla as legal for graffiti would have the effect of reducing graltiti elsewhara for several reasons: (1) it permits pact recognition without prosecutorial risk; and (2) it lessens the value aaaociatad with graffiti if "lay persona/commoners" learn the akilla o! the graffiti artist, etc. See Bombing and Aurni..,.. .,.~._ ~__. _, ~m.,aicauons cot Po'~r~~ by Devon Brewer and Mara Millar, ^Dwiant Behavior", 11:345-369, 1990, Hemisphere Publishing Corporation, 1990. In order to permit legal walla, howavar, all of the criminal sections havn to be considered for modification in order to permit possession and travel back and forth to the legal wall. 44. Penal code Section 640.5 permits that "any community service which is required pursuant to subdivision (a) (govsrnmant facility or vehicle defacement] of a parson under the age of 18 years may be performed in the presanca, and under the direct supervision, of the person's parent or legal guardian. grafi9.wp conceptual Oretf iti Ordinance July 15, 1991 Paga 28 ~flI 45. Remember that Civil Code Section 1714.1 imputes the willful misconduct of a minor to the parents or custodial guardians for all purposes of civil damages, to $10,000 per incident for graffiti injuries, and includes court costs and attorneys fees. Remember also that Government Code, Section 53069.5, IDakes parents contingently liable for rewards paid out for catching "defacers" of public property: " Any person whose willful misconduct has resulted in injury or death to any student or any person employed by or perfozming volunteer services for a local agency or who has willfully damaged or destroyed any property of a local agency or any property of any other local agency or state or federal agency located within the boundaries of the local agency shall be liable for the amount of any reward paid pursuant to this section and if he is an unemancipated minor his parent or guardian shall also be liable for the amount." The same applies, in Penal Cade section 640.5 for minor defacing governmental facilities or vehicles: " (2) If a minor is personally unable to pay any fine levied for violating svbdivis ion (a), the parent or legal guardian of the minor shall be liable for payment of the Sine. A court may waive payment of the tine by the parent or legal guardian upon a finding of goo8 cause." However, Penal Cade, Section 594.1, permits parents to give or sell aerosol containers of paint to their children without criminal liability. This ordinance provision would make them civilly liable for such decisions. 46. This phrase permits civil liability if the child gives the Graffiti Implement to a friend who causes the graffiti. 47.

REGENED CITY OF RANCHO C'Jr,AN ONGP ADMIMSTflAi10 MAR 0 91993 ~~8,9,10,11 121.2 3.4.5,6 As Presidin4 Judge of the San Bernardino County Juvenile Court, I am sending this letter to the mayors of every city within the County to address the graffiti problem that plagues all of our communities. In this letter I will explain what is being done by the Juvenile Court to deal with the problem, and what I believe the communities can do to be an effective part of the solution. Let me begin by stating that I do understand and appreciate the magnitude of this issue. Graffiti is an unaight ly blight that requires the expenditure of large amounts of money that could be put to much better use in Your communities. Moreover, Your constituents are upset and rightfully so. They demand immediate action, yet it is difficult to know where to turn for help. Before I get to the purpose of this letter, I would like to make a few observations. These are not excuses, but realities that need to be recognised. The juvenile justice system, as all levels of state and local government, faces severe financial cutbacks that impact our ability to handle the constantly increasing number of cases coming into the system. These include the serious felonies such as murder, robbery, kidnaDDing, rape, burglary, assaults, and weapons possession. Those are the cases that consume most of the Lima and resources of probation, the district attorney, and the court, Prankly, these agencies do not have the ability to handle the high volume of graffiti cases that could be referred to Chem. air March 4, 1993 Page 2 Although there is a public outcry for imposition of the maximum penalty for graffiti offenders, including the maximum fine, the court must fit the punishment to the crime and the particular cYrcumstances of each case. It cannot make a blanket policy to impose a certain sentence (either maximum or minimum) in all cases. Moreover, experience has shown that imposing the maximum fine in adult and juvenile cases rarely has the intended financial or deterrent effect. This is especially true in the case of juvenile offenders, To impose a maximum fine of $675 (including penalty assessments) on a 15-year old, for example, who is unemployed, is unrealistic. The and result is that the parents will pay the fine, if they aie able, which does little to impress a valuable lesson on the minor. While the use o£ a fine as punishment is appropriate in many instances, it will not, in-and-of-itself, deter further violations. Finally, while graffiti has always been around, it has only recently become this prolific. This is due in part to the increase in gang activity, and also to the popularity of the activity among non-gang related young people. We cannot write this off as a mere fad, but chances are the non-gang related activity will eventually slow down. With these thoughts in mind, let's examine the resources we presently have in place to deal with the problem. Pot those minors who are apprehended, law enforcement hes the option of citing them and their parents to aPPear before a Traffic Hearing Officer. The minor may be cited under the specific Penal Code Section that deals with graffiti violations by minors (Penal Code Sections 640.5 and 640.6), or the general vandalism statute (Penal Code Section 594). In eitheY case the disposition is similar. The minor can be fined up to $250 plus penalty assessments (a total of $675), and required to perform community service, and lose his or her driving privilege (Vehicle Code Section 13202,5). The only difference is that a conviction under Penal Code 640.5 and 640.6 allows the Hearing officer to order the parents to pay the fins if the minor cannot, and to supervise the minor's community service, if appropriate. The typical sentence imposed on the more serious offenders (e.g. older minors with gang connections, oz prior convictions, or who have caused substantial property damage) is a fine of $675 with $SOC suspended on the condition he or she performs up to 100 hours ~~ March 4, 1993 Page 3 of community service--usually graffiti removal in the community if the community has a program in place to accept such referrals. The court will also order the suspension of the minor's driver's license if one is issued, or delay the minor's eligibility to receive a license until the minor completes the community service. In addition, the Hearing Officer frequently requires a favorable report from the minor's school or counselor before authorizing restoration of the minor's driving privilege and up to 365 added hours of community service. The less serious offenders (e.g. first offenders with minimal property damage) receive a fine and 40 hours of community service, plus loss of driving privilege. An important point to remember when evaluating the effectiveness of these dispositions is that it has only been within the last two years that the Legislature has authorized these cases to be heard by Juvenile TraEf is Hearing Officers, and it has been less than a year that law enforcement has discovered this alternative. Because the process is quicker and more efficient than moving the cases through the regular Juvenile Court, more and more law enforcement agencies era citing offenders into the Juvenile Traffic Court much as they do juvenile treff is offenders. We are seeing favorable results! Parente are writing to commend the Hearing Officers for the way their child's case was handled. However, it is still early in the game, and the full affect will not be known for some time. As effective as I believe these remedies are, the problem will never be resolved by the courts alone since only a small percent of the perpetrators actually make it to court. Sach community must realize the problem is primarily a local one and that it can best be handled at the local level by community leaders and concerned citizens who take pride in their community and take the initiative to restore its beauty, This leads me to the final purpose of my latter--to suggest ways to deal with the problem through local action. First of all, your community must develop a graffiti removal program it you have not already done so. Only in this way can the courts direct offenders to perform their community service in the community in which the damage was done. Secondly, in the case of juvenile offenders, the parents must be involved in the process. If the juvenile is caught and cited into court, the parents are required to appear and participate, and, if appropriate, pay the fine. Moreover, they can be held civilly liable up to =10,000 for any property damage caused by their child's vandalism (Civil Code Section 1714,1). You should consult your city attorney for advice on how to procee8 against the parents for restitution. ~/~ March A, 1993 Page 4 In addition to civil liability, parents can be held criminally liable for their children's violation of curfew ordinances. A parent who is called down to the police station in the middle of the night to pick up his or her child, and who receives a citation to appear in adult court, may well decide to become more concerned about that child's after-hour activities. This may impose an extra burden on your already overburdened law enforcement agency, However, in those cities that have rigorously enforced curfew ordinances, the incidents of vandalism, as well as other gang'related crimes, have been significantly reduced. The third suggestion concerns the development of local programs that educate youth and prevent this type of behavior, or quickly and effectively deal with offenders who are caught. Two such programs are particularly worthy of mention. Rids Against Crime is a program that has been successful in many communities, including San Bernardino. Basically, it involves law-abiding local high school students who are interested in demonstrating that not all kids are bad and that they take pride in their community. They do this by performing volunteer community service. This program is particularly useful as a resource to the court. We can send minor offenders to perform their community service through this program which has the added advantage of exposing them to positive peer pressure. Youth Accountability Hoards were developed in the communities of Hesperia and Apple Valley as alternatives to directing youthful offenders through the Juvenile Court system. Hach community has a board of volunteer adults who meet requlerly to impose dispositions on minors who choose to appear before them rather than have a petition or citation issued in Juvenile Court. The board can order the minor to perform community service, and if successful, the minor's case is settled out of court. These are only a few suggestions communities can consider in deciding how to better deal with the graffiti problem. Citizen patrols, rabid clean-up, and local regulations of sales of spray paint and felt pens are other areas that are important in gaining control of the situation. I am encouraged to see that several cities have banded together in a coalition to share ideas and experiences in fighting this battle. In this way, cities that have already implemented some of the programs mentioned can be of great assistance to those cities that are starting out. d19 March 4, 1993 Page 5 1 will be happy to meet with City officials individually or collectively to lend the support of the court in this battle. I may not be able to grant every request, but I can assure you of our cooperation to the fullest extent possible. Very truly Yours, dl ~v'7.c.~-% JAM~5 A, HDWARDS Presiding Judge of Juvenile Court JAB:sw aao MEMORANDUM 15 February 1993 To: Jerry Fulwood cc: City Council, Planning Commission From: John Melcher Subject: Graffiti Here are some thoughts and concerns from the perspective of a design pro- fessional/Planning Consnissioner. You've probably covered them already, but here goes: Winning means keeping graffiti from going up and, when it does go up, gettino it down. Keeping it from going up involves decisions about materials, coatings, and landscaping; getting it down means decisions about techniques. Suggestions for keeping it from going up: c Require all new surfaces to be of materials that will tend to mask future removal efforts. Split-face masonry, for instance, can be sandblasted without much apparent change in surface color/texture. o Require all new unpainted surfaces to be coated with the best avail- able repellent coatings. o To the maximum extent possible, coat/require coating of existing surfaces. o Require all new surfaces to be planted with vines or protected with spiny shrubs, such as pyracantha. o Retrofit planting at all existing surfaces, as above. Thounhts about tecMiques for getting it down: Remove it, or cover it up. Neither method is ideal. o Removal involves sandblasting or chemicals. Sandblasring gets it, but leaves its own signature in the color/texture of the surface. Ungrouted masonry cells cannot be sandblasted repeatedly without consequence; eventually, openings into the empty cells will occur. In my neighborhood (private streets), the association's contractor brushes on a liquid remover, then flushes it away with water. The treated surface is undamaeed, but the environmental consequences may be greater than those of sandblasting. On balance, St bears looking into. Fulwood Memorandum 15 February 1993 Page Two o Coverup means painting over it. This is OK at first blush, but the eventual patchwork quilt of mismatched paint colors is simply trading one blight for another, as is the shopworn appearance these surfaces will present when the paint begins to peel, as it inevitably will. Lastly, a couple of thoughts on staffing and resources, from the per- spective of a citizen who chose to live in Rancho Cucamonga because of the quality of life it offered. You've probably covered these, too, but here goes again: Staffing: On the 4/10 schedule, the City's crews are on duty inter- mittently during the 83-hour period between 7:00 a,ro, Monday and 6:00 p. m. Thursday. The vandals have 85 hours -- from 6:00 p. m. Thursday to 7:00 a.m. Monday -- to get ahead of the cleanup effort. Holiday weekends exacerbate the situation. By putting the City's crews on a traditional 5-day week, the City's window enlarges to 105 hours (8:00 a.m. Monday to 5:00 p.m. Friday); the vandals' shrinks to 63 hours. Better yet, run cleanup crews seven days a week. Resources: How about a city-aide graffiti abatement district? It seem, like $10/dwellSng unit/year would let you more then double your current efforts. I don't know if it's legal, and I'm sure i['s tough politically, but I'll bet people would support it.

I am gratified to learn that so many others share our concerns about graffiti in Rancno Cucamonga. [ regret that I will be unable to attend the scheduled task force meetings because I will be out of the country for most of the month of May. I would be grateful to you if you would pass along the following suggestions to the task force in my absence. 1. Refrain from using the term "tagging" or "taggers". Tag was a game we played as young children. Graffiti attacks are des- tructive and unlawful activities carried out by delinquents and criminals. 2. Penalize first offenders with a fine imposed upon the parents of juvenile of `enders of $100. Second offenses should carry a fine of $500 and a third offense of $1,000. in addition, the offender should be required to perform 25 hours of public service ( graffiti cleanup preferably ) for each offense and this should be cumulative so that a third offense would require 75 hours of service. 3. A graffiti cleanup squad sponsored by the City should be employed full time to respond to graffiti incidents within 24 to 48 hours. Both public and private property must be included. A combination of City employees and sentenced offenders would keep the cost with- in reason. Reformed offenders should be given the opportunity to be paid for this work after completing public service. 4. A substantial public relations campaign should be undertaken by the City to inform its citizens that: The City of Rancho Cucamonga will not tolerate graffiti attacks and Offenders will be apprehended and punished. The penalties should be widely published, especially in schools and in home directed mailers 2a3 P.O, BOX 1772, PACIFIC PALISADES, CALIFORNIA 90271 • (310) 472fl277 • FAX (310) 4763026 April 28, 1993 Mr. Jerry Fulwood Page 2 5.

RANCHO INDUSTRIAL ASSOCIATES Mark Sarrow, General Partner M 5:6r ~~ JUDICIAL SLBCOMMITTEE of the Wes[ Valley Graffiti Coordination Committee Overview of Subcommittee Activities, March 1993 The Subcommittee has been working to identify: 1. Ways in which the County of San Bernardino and cities may coordinate with [he Courts system as to the magnitude of the graffiti problem, 2, Effective strategies for the prosecution, restitution and prevention of repeat graffiti vandalism offenses, 3. Problems the Courts face when processing graffiti offenders, and ways to address to these problems. Some of the ideas that have beeo proposed by Subtrommittee members include: L Processing additional graffiti cases in the San Bernardino County Juvenile Court, 2. Drafting legislation that will require graffiti offenders or their parents to pay restitution, 3. Increasing penalties (Currently, the firrc muimum in Juvenile Traffic Court is 5275 • PC640.5 - Infractian). 4. Establishing a community court, for uu by the West Valley. 5. Establishing additional work programs, such as the S. W,E.A.T. program (sponsored by Ontario and Rancho Cucamonga) and cottununiry urvia pmgrams. Community Court Efforts are underway to establish a local court to process community crime cases (for e.g., graffiti and prostitution). A letter has been sent to the County to request the use of the vacant court building located at 6th and Mountain Ave. In addition, a search is on for a judge or commissioner to preside over the coon. A Judicial Subcommittee member has suggested that consideration be given to azking a retired judge or commissioner to preside over the court as a community service. ~5 TAGGING A crime of the times Pau( Padilla, a ly year.ald Omm~o rcsdnu, emnda proudly in (rant of a wdl <overtd AY gra/Jui at a Fourth Srref opartmenl building.

First, it allows the community to share in the respor,s ibility for c.umr wsa"a"'"°'e'"' resolving the problems of juvenile crime. It joins programs like Neighborhood Watch and Citizens on Patrol in creating a partnership between the community and government. Second, it offers enhancement to the disposition of the numerous minor cases referred to the juvenile justice system. Currently, many of these cases receive only a cursory review before being settled out of court. Counseling and education arranged by the Board provides support for parents while the community service imposed on minors raises their awareness of the impact and consequences of their behavior. Additionally, the community service aspects of the program provides the community at large With a benefit rather than a loss from juvenile crime. The first Youth Accountability Board in San Bernardino County was developed as a pilot project in the city of Hesperia. The seed for the concept was planted by a local resident who had worked on a similar program in the state of Idaho. Tha San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department and Probation Department saw the concept as a viable solution to a community need. The two departments combined their efforts to develop the concept into a functioning program. This program is row the model for other communities to copy. What follows is a description of this modal program and some of the important considerations for implementation of Youth Accountability Boards in other communities. BACKGROUND Juvenile diversion is a program administered by the Probation Department which seeks to find alternatives to the prosecution of juveniles, especially first ottenders. This is often desirable to avoid the detrimental aspects of court proceedings and dispositions, including their substantial cost to the taxpayers. When juvenile diversion was at its peak in the late 1970s many probation officers provided effective dispositions for juveniles diverted from the court system. Adaquat• staffing oL diversion programs allowed of titers to ba creative and to follow through with diverted youth. However, as the population grew while rasourcas dwindled, diversion became nothing more than a flood gars, keeping volumes of minor ottenders out of the courts but oflarinq no meaningful services. The problem of limited resources continues to raatrlct the ability of the juvenile justice system to servo the first time and minor offender. The concept employed by the Youth Accountability Board brings the resources of the community to beer on the problem. Tha ~~ program adopts the philosophy employed by Law Enforcement prcgrams such as Neighborhood Watch and Citizens on Patrol. That is, that the community at large can join with government to reduce crime and improve public safety. It merges this philosophy with the concept of Alternative Dispute Resolution which has paralleled the development of community participation in law enforcement over the past decade. Alternative Dispute Resolution offers mediation through community volunteers ae an alternative to court resolution of minor civil actions. These Lwo concepts era brought togethet as the Youth Accountability Board. Tha program provides for the diversion oL juvenile first offenders to a Board of community volunteers who mediate a disposition with the minor and hie or her parents. Tha disposition usually involves both restitution to the victim and community service. Additionally it may require tho minor and parents to participate in educational programa, counseling or youth organizations. PROCESS Following arrest and investigation by law enforcement officers, cases are reviewed by the probation officer. if daeaed appropriate for diversion, a letter is sent to the minor and parents advising them of the option to have their case hoard by the Youth Accountability Board. It this invitation is accepted, the coordinator for the Board notifies the parents of a meeting and collects some social history information. A hearing panel is composed of five members of the Board. This panel meats with the minor and parents to review the circumatancem of the offense and other pertinent information. The panel then suggests an appropriate disposition. Zf the minor and parents are in agreement, a contract is signed. The contract specifies what she minor must do to have the case resolved. Once the community service is completed and other conditions of the contract era mat, the case is closed. Resolution of the case through the accountability Board affords the minor the additional benefit of having no Formal record made of the referral or disposition. Community service provides a constructive punishment tot the set while educational programa, counseling and youth group participation provide support and constructive activities. The most significant aspect of this program is the enhancement that is brought to the procsem by mambas of the Board. Each member of the Hoard brings to Chia process a lifetime of experience. Many have contacts with service ozganizatione or other resources Chet could ba of benefit to minors referred to the Board. Additionally, the Hoard members get an opportunity to participate in the juvenil• justice process, raising their awarenas^ o! juvenil• iuuq and improving the relationship between the community and the justice system. ~'J PROGRAM STAFFING Members oP Che Youth Accoun~cability Board represent all walks of life. Each member volunteers to attend a monthly business meeting, to :oervise community service projects and to sit on a hearing pa r._t. The program requires the coordinated effort oL Law Enforcement, Probation and the community. Both Probation and the local Law Enforcement Agency designate a liaison to the Hoard. Lnit sally these liaisons work together to develop the volunteer group that becomes the Youth Accountability Board. As moat Law Entorcement Agencies have well developed volunteer services, this is the logical place to recruit Board members. From the Board membership, a Program Social Investigator is selected. This is the individual who will coordinate the actual case hearings, prepare necessary paperwork and eomplete the initial family contact. The Program Social Investigator needs to have substantial time to donate to the program as wall as the social skills to interview families and work with the other members of the Board. VOLLTITEER TRAINING As this is a program serving youth and due to the confidential nature of the hearings, all prospective Board members should ha screened Chrough Law Entorcement or Probation volunteer services. Complete background checks should ba complsied including criminal record searches. Hoard members should be added to the volunteer Porces of the participating departments. All Board members who sit on hearing panels should receive training in the areas of the history oL juvenile justice, the law, juvenile procedure and confidentiality. Thies training can be conducted through the training departments at the participating agencies. .i NSURANCE As youth will be participating in work programs, there is a possibility of injury. The key to reducing the risk of injury is controlling the nature of the work, assuring a sate work environment and providing close supervision. This is why Board members must ba able to volunteer tSme to supervise work projects. if the work is on public property, the county workaz'• compensation program covers the minors on the job site. Additionally it is advisable that the Board raise Lunde to purchase a medical insurance policy. Local service organizations msy be willing to provide the necessary funding. It work projects are conducted on private property, the property owner must be insured to covet any potential claims. ~~~ WORE SITES As the purpoe• of community service is to return something tc the community a large, work sites are generally in public areas. These include parks, scnoola and recreational areas. Representatives oL parks and recreation, fire districts and schools should be invited to participate in the Board. Work on non-public property should express a community service. Examples include assisting clean up of property belonging to elderly persons or disabled parsons and volunteer work in medical Facilities. COMMUNITY RESOURCES As much as possible, youth organizations, community service groups, counselors and teachers should be recruited for the Beard. Thah individuals and groups provide valuable resources for the youth referred to the Board. GETTING STARTED It a Youth Accountability Board could meet the needs of your community and it the community is ready to support the program, the first step is to designate rapressntativas for the Probation Department and Law Enforcement. Thes• individuals should xork together to develop the volunteer core o! the accountability Board. They may wish to contact representatives of an operational Board to observe meetings and hearings and to dlscus• strategies for implementation. The attached package includes by-laws and other forms of the Hesperia Youth Accountability Board. These should be helpful in developing new programs.

ANDREW HARTZELL Deputy County Counsel comer ar s.. s.~.n~o PAMELA H. THOMPSON, Risk Manager Risk Management YGUTH ACCOUNTABYLITY BOARD PROGRAM This memo is written in response to your recent request that this of Pice review the above referenced program regarding workers' compensation and liability issues. As i understand the program, first time juvenile offenders will have the opportunity to provide community service as an alternate to prosecution within the juvenil• justice system. Tha Accountability Board is being astabliahed through a cooperative effort between the SheriLf'a Department and the Probation Department, and will, among other things, enter into contracts with participants of the program which will specify the work to be done as community aervica, thereby allowing th• youth to ba accountable and raaponsibl• for his/her actions. The community service would be performed for the Hesperia Park and Recreation District. Zn ansxer to your question regarding who is responsible for workers' compensation coverage, the ansxer i^ that the County is responsible for such coverage, it the Board of Supervisors adopts an appropriate resolution. Labor Coda 57761.6 provides in pertinent part, "...juvenil• traff is offenders pursuant to Section 564 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, or juvenile probationers pursuant to subdivision (a) o! Section 725 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, engaged in rehabilitative work without pay, under an assignment by order of the juvenile court to a work project on public property within the jurisdiction of any governmental agency ... shall, ypQD of Chia division, be entitled to the workers' compensation benefits provided by this division for injury sustained while in the performance of such work project..." (amphesis added.) The County has adopted Section ]364.6 through the enactment of County Coda Section 17.052. Thus, the participants o! the Youth Accountab111ty Board would be covered under the County's worker's compensation program. V Pamela H. Thompson 2 March 2, 1992 with respect to your question regarding execution of the waiver, since the participants would be statutorily entitled to worker's compensation benelita for an injury, such benefits may not be waived. The proposed waiver seeking release of liability for any injury would not be enforceable, if that injury would otherwise be covered under worker's compensation. County Code Section 1].052 also provides, however, that such juvenile persons shall not be deemed employees for any purpose other than worker's compensation coverag^. Sines tna participants would not be considered employees for other purposes, but would be equivalent to volunteers, the County would be generally immune from liability for their acts. Sea 61 Ops. A.G. 265. With other similar programs operated by the County, such as the work release program at Glen Helen Rehabilitation Center, entitles which receive the services accept whatever liability may accrue from th• volunteers' acts, Th1s i^ accomplished by contract provisions in th• contract with the entities that receive the services. After discussing this program with Wsa Krause from the Probation Department, it is my understanding that the participants o! the program will be provided an insurance policy for accidents incurred during the program. While the County's statutory obligations under the workers' compensation system would remefn regardless of the insurance coverage, to the extent Chat th• policy picks up expanses for injuries otherwis• covered, the costs to the workers' compensation system may be reduced. I hope that this information is responsive to your questions. ALAN H. MARKS County ounse ~. w.

EO~tD Yp1R 9Irt QUO~DIA~rO! JUVQILE OR61mQ a9~ GRAFFITI A MODEST PROPOSAL Our class policy -The city of Rancho Cucamonga shall establish a group that is made up of volunteers that will work closely with the Police Department, who's main objective will be to catch vandals in the act by means of visual identification. Pro's and Con's Some of the advantages of our policy is that it deters taggers and makes them think twice because they know someone's watching them. One of the other advantage of our classes policy is if taggers get caught the only evidence needed is the video camera, or what ever the source of evidence that was used. An additional advantage of our policy is that it catches taggers in the act and the police are on the problem right away so the taggers can't get away. Some of the disadvantages of our classes policy is that the volunteers, who are on the force are unprotected from taggers, but when the volunteer radio's for help the police are there in minutes, so the volunteer is in no possible harm and besides, they have a patrol car to get a 9~ away in. The other disadvantage that we came up with was the price of all the equipment needed would be expensive, but when you think about all the money we are spending on graffiti clean up the money that is being spent for the equipment is just a drop in the bucket compared to the $200,000 being spent on cleanup in the first place. The only equipment needed is the radio's that are used to contact the police, but that that's a one time expense. The other equipment is akeady there. So the disadvantages aren't major and they are already taken care of. a 98 7~~ An. ~~ ~-~, vrill lorce "'r1U1~~Yit Parents °"8 Parents or Parents to 6e aware m9M be unable to pat 9uardgns will be what their tBeng ere doing In their for these lama forced to PaY for the leisure lima.
