being made regarding the Animal Care and Services Center and noted that it is time for both sides
to find a resolution to this matter. Lastly, she noted the dog tag material is very thin and noted that

Regular Meeting—June 5, 2013 - Page 4 of 15
12. Jim Heitman, representing the Rancho Cucamonga Chamber of Commerce, spoke about
upcoming activities in the community.
13. Ondra Gilbertson displayed the Animal Care and Adoption Center's euthanasia policy on the
screen and noted that the Center does not a fostering, adoption or marketing policy. She
disagreed with euthanasia being a final act of kindness for healthy animals. Ms. Gilbertson
requested that the City Manager establish a program, directive, policies and procedures for the
Center so that whenever someone new is hired they know of the community's goals.
14. Dana Keithly noted that the group is dedicated to shelter reform, looking at policies and
procedures and encouraging a no-kill philosophy. She indicated that euthanasia should not be an
option when an animal is healthy. Ms. Keithly showed a picture that was recently loaded onto the
group's face book page and pointed out that the group is not responsible for what other people
think and say on the group's site.
15. Susan Keithly noted that the group has been working with the City Manager since 2010 and left
a copy of the notes of a volunteer meeting held on November 18, 2000 at her home. She
displayed a photograph of a dog's paws that were full of feces and open sores, noting that the
group just wanted the opportunity to improve the lives of these animals.
16. Allison Kreider noted that dogs provided by the Animal Care and Adoption Center to the free
groomer have been embedded with fleas and very dirty. One dog at the Center was deemed to be
a female but is really a male. Ms. Kreider was at the kiosk at Victoria Gardens on three occasions
when it was supposed to be open and no one was there.
17. Jennifer Corso noted that a dog has been promoted by the Center in 2013 but died in 2012.
She indicated that background checks and fingerprinting of volunteers at the Center are not
reasonable when the City does not require it for large events. The City's Internet site should be
changed as it has inaccurate information on when fingerprints are required. Ms. Corso volunteered
for the Center in February but has yet to walk one dog.
18. David Dykstra noted that meeting policies and procedures have been set up to ensure the
smooth and civil operation of this meeting. He noted that the same thing is needed for the Animal
Care and Adoption Center. He noted that the City purchased a No-Kill standard and isn't using it.
19. Raymond Herrera noted that illegal aliens recently protested at Congressman Miller's office. He
spoke in opposition to amnesty for illegal aliens.
110. Robin Hvidston referenced an article in the Daily Bulletin about the protest at Congressman
Miller's office. She provided photographs of the work being done by We the People. In addition,
Ms. Hvidston expressed concerns with various provisions of the amnesty bill under consideration
by the House and Senate.
111. Dee Barrow loved America and our freedoms. She spoke in opposition to illegal aliens
receiving the same rights that are granted to Americans.
112. John Lyons reported that the Animal Care and Adoption Center recently held a licensing clinic.
Now that school has let out, he encouraged everyone to focus on public safety, especially at the
trail.
113. Phyllis Nemeth addressed the proposed amenity bill, noting that if it passes it will cost 6.3
trillion dollars.
114. Nicole Myerchin wondered why Mr. Winograd wasn't involved in the hiring process for the
Director at the Animal Care and Services Center. She expressed a concern that Mr. Winograd's
policies and procedures have not been adopted.

Lori Sassoon, Deputy City Manager/Administrative Services presented the staff report.
Mayor Michael opened the public hearing.
Cnythia Howard spoke in opposition to the increase in assessment. She was concerned with the
proposed automatic cost of living increase and wondered why the assessment wasn't tied to a San
Bernardino County index. Also, Ms. Howard noted that the District always has a surplus and did
not want to forgo the right to vote on assessments in the future.
Victor Muniz noted that the vote in 2011 was ignored. He has lost his confidence in the City during
this process.
Ponchit Medina was opposed to the proposed increase in assessment. He noted that his home
has depreciated in value and stated that this is the wrong time to be requesting an increase.
Everyone people are tightening their belts.
Jerie Lee noted that the City has done nothing but promote the increased assessment. The
landscaping at Day Creek has not improved. Ms. Lee did not want the proposed assessment
increase to pass but if it does, she urged the Council to make sure that the money is spent
appropriately on drought tolerant landscaping.
Sunday Obazuaye agreed with Ms. Howard, noting that the CPI did not need to reflect the cost of
living in Orange County. If the vote had been divided into two parts, with the proposed increase
and the automatic CPI taken separately, he might have considered it.
John Lyons noted that the Victoria community is a beautifully planned community. When it was
formed, residents wanted it to be a masterpiece and to reflect Rancho Cucamonga's premier City
status. Mr. Lyons noted that the proposed assessment is $40 per year and indicated that this
should not be a hardship.
Bill Hanlon noted that very few people voted in support of no-smoking and now this is the law in
the City. Similarly, the vote for an increased assessment failed and now it is okay to revote. Mr.
Hanlon expressed a concern regarding the money that was spent to reconsider this matter and
hoped that the proposed assessment failed.
Karen Polescow noted that she walks the trails every day and the landscaping has been there for
many years. She spoke in favor of the proposed assessment increase as she appreciates the
value and uses it as a tax deduction. Ms. Polescow urged the community to take care of their
properties.

Stacy Abraham noted that it is beautiful for people to have money to keep their homes and to eat.
She opposed the proposed increase in the assessment.
In response to the City Council, the Deputy City Manager/Administrative Services addressed the
proposed CPI increase, noting that the City is in the Inland Southern California region. Also, she
noted that current assessment has been in place since 1993. Mr. Gillison indicated that water
rates have gone up very significantly; noting a 5% increase for the last four years.
Ms. Sassoon also noted that approval of the CPI does not authorize the City to spend the entire
amount. Each year, the City must demonstrate the total cost to maintain this District. She noted
that CPIs are included in many Districts and stated that the City has a proven track record of not
imposing the maximum allowable assessment. Lastly, she noted that if the proposed assessment
is approved, a Citizens Oversight Committee is proposed to be created to review the audited
report.
Ms. Sassoon also noted that property tax is received by every District twice per year. As expenses
are incurred monthly, a reserve is in place in order to ensure that every District has enough funds
to carry it through until the next installment of property tax has been received.
Mayor Michael reminded the audience that all assessment ballots and replacement assessment
ballots must be received by the City Clerk prior to the end of the public hearing. Ballots received
after the public hearing is closed will not be tabulated. He encouraged property owners to turn in
their ballots at this time.
Mayor Michael closed the public hearing and requested that the City Clerk tabulate the ballots.
Once the ballots are tabulated, the City Clerk was requested to report back to the City Council.

Mayor Michael recessed the meeting at 9:40 p.m.

City Clerk Janice Reynolds stated the following: 6,424 assessment ballots were mailed to the
property within the proposed boundaries of the Landscape Maintenance District and 2,268 of
those assessment ballots were received prior to the close of the public hearing. 1,144
assessment ballots representing $723,419.00 of assessments were submitted in support of the
levy of the proposed assessments within the Assessment District. This is 57% of the ballots
received.
The City Clerk announced that 1,124 assessment ballots representing $528,432.00 of
assessments were submitted in opposition to the levy of the proposed assessments within the
Assessment District. This is 42% of the ballots received.

District No. 2 and recommended that Resolution Nos. 13-077 and 13-079 be adopted.
