CODE ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITY WITHIN THE 10200 BLOCK OF ASHFORD (0704-07 CODE ENFOR) Bruce Robbins, 10208 Ashford, stated he was questioning City regulations in the Ordinance which adopted the Development Code as it pertained to his neighborhood. He mentioned various things his neighbors had been cited for, and felt this Ordinance should be reconsidered. Councilmember Buquet stated this probably came about because of a complaint received at City Hall, and that staff then proceeded to go through the area to investigate the complaint. Mayor Stout stated he did not feel it would be wrong to look into these regulations covered in the Ordinance, but stated he knew there were other cities that were more strict than Rancho Cucamonga. He stated he has received various calls before regarding this subject, and that people are pleased the City is trying to have some kind of control. He also stated this could have an affect on someome's property value. Councilmember Wright stated she feels there have been tools designed to help them get rid of situations that are really problems. She felt the Ordinance was very necessary. Councilmember Buquet stated this is designed to assist people in keeping the property in their neighborhood in good condition. James Markman, City Attorney, stated every City has a property maintenance ordinance. He stated the way to look at this is to picture every house in Rancho Cucamonga having the same condition, and then figure if that is acceptable as a standard to be set by the City Council. Councilmember Buquet stated that he hopes Mr. Robbins would understand that the City isjust trying to come to a reasonable approach. Councilmember Brown felt it needed to be addressed as far as having adequate facilities to put recreational vehicles. Councilmember Brown also concurred with Mayor Stout that neighboring properties can affect the property value of their neighbor's homes. City Council Minutes April 18, 1990 Page 9 Councilmember Buquet stated he did not think it was up to the City to find R.V. spaces for an owner of an R.V. He added he felt Code Enforcement has always bent over backwards to work with people that have been cited. The City Council commended Mr. Robbins for his presentation. Ken Levering, a resident of Ashford, stated he lives next door to Mr. Robbins, and he was also cited because his vehicle was dirty and his bushes were too large. He added that the person that came to his house went all around his house for things that she might be able to write up. He stated she also canvassed the entire neighborhood in order to find possible violations with other people's homes. There being no further response, the public input session was closed. Councilmember Alexander stated he felt the comments received should be looked at and reviewed. Mayor Stout suggested that the Planning Commission review this. Councilmember Alexander concurred. Brad Buller, City Planner, offered a ride along program for the City Council and Planning Commission to go with Code Enforcement Officers so that they would be more aware of the program. Councilmember Wright suggested that information be presented on the method of the Enforcement Program, and also the regulations should be looked at. Councilmember Buquet suggested that the City Council also receive pictures to go along with the review of the Ordinance. James Markman, City Attorney, stated that a lot a cities supply the City Council with regular informational reports on code enforcement violations that are reported to them, and also the action that was taken. He stated he felt they would see a high level of achievement by Code Enforcement. Councilmember Buquet suggested that staff put together information on the Code Enforcement process, and if a Councilmember felt they wanted more information on a certain area of the Ordinance, they could meet with staff to have their questions answered. Councilmember Brown suggested that Rancho Cucamonga contact the City of Chino regarding how they handle their enforcement procedures, and also any other cities that might be helpful. Mayor Stout suggested that Montclair be looked at also. ACTION: Staff to come back with a report on the Code Enforcement process at the May 16, 1990 meeting.

(0704-07 VANDALISM) Mayor Stout opened the meeting for public comment. Addressing the City Council was: John Seton, who asked various questions about the graffiti program. He expressed his concerns to the City Council about the problem with graffiti and felt something should be done to stop it. He added he did not feel what the City was doing so far was working. Councilmember Wright stated the City has not ignored this problem, and has just recently created a tool for dealing with graffiti on private property, and is paying attention to the graffiti problems as they affect both residential and public areas. She stated the effort tonight is to re-asses what the City Council already has, and to possibly make it better. She felt Mr. Seton should offer suggestions to help solve the problem, instead of criticizing what the City Council is trying to do. Councilmember Brown stated the City is trying to resolve the graffiti problems, and is making progress to eliminate the situation. Jack Lam, City Manager, reported on the graffiti policy that has been created and the response time for removing graffiti, both on public and private property.

Lewis Trout, 7861 Leucite, who stated he agreed with the staff report that was presented, he agreed with the information on the bounty system, he felt S.B. 1977, which was proposed by Senator Kopp, should be endorsed by the Council, and felt the City should urge Senators Ayala and Leonard, and Assemblyman Bader to also support this. He also liked the suggestion that was made in the staff report as it related to the City of Diamond Bar. He stated he liked the idea of penalizing those that are caught putting on the graffiti. He stated he would like to commend the staff, the City Attorney, the City Council and the Daily Report for all of their efforts. Linda Myler, La Vine Street, stated behind her house is the biggest graffiti mural in Alta Loma. She stated she has reported this to the City, and that it is getting worse and worse. She stated the City is not doing anything about this. She felt her neighborhood was unsafe because of the graffiti activity. She also stated she felt the City should City Council Minutes April 18, 1990 Page 11 advertise at the Junior High and High School level for those students to be the "snitches" on the people who are actually putting on the graffiti in order for them to get the reward. She also stated she is willing to help the City get the graffiti off the wall behind her house. Councilmember Buquet felt the City is taking a step in the right direction. He felt law enforcement should know the importance of this issue and to provide as fast a response as possible when they receive a call about graffiti that is in progress. Jack Lam, City Manager, stated staff is looking at next year's budget for additional graffiti removal. Councilmember Buquet felt an educational program to people who sell spray cans should be initiated. Mayor Stout stated he agreed with staff's recommendation, and asked that they proceed with the Ordinance. Mayor Stout stated that he did not necessarily agree with Senator Kopp's suggestion as far as taking away someone's driver license because he stated they now do this with drunk drivers, and that it does not really work. He added he would like to see this Ordinance brought back to the City Council. Russ Maguire, City Engineer, added that any help the property owners want to give is welcomed, that if they desire to go ahead and start removing it, it is fine with the City. Mayor Stout suggested that Russ Maguire, City Engineer, talk to Mrs. Myler and would like a report back to the City Council after he has done this. ACTION: Report received and filed.
