I. PUBLIC COMMUNICATIONS
11. Gwyn Frost and Deborah Webster invited the City Council and the audience to the Etiwanda
Historical Society's Evening Under the Stars event, which will be held on August 24, 2013.
12. Dennis Cisneros noted that 50% of the water supply is collected from Cucamonga Canyon. He
noted that there are two major projects are underway to collect the water and better treat it. He
hoped that the City would help in keeping the public contamination to a minimum.
13. Jim Heitman, representing the Chamber of Commerce, announced several upcoming grand
openings as well as a networking opportunity at Mark Christopher Auto Center on August 20,
2013.
14. Dorothy Burchfield updated the City Council on a recent meeting with the Friends of the
Foothills.
15. Raymond Herrera expressed a concern with U.S. Congressman Gary Miller being intimidated
by illegal aliens.
16. Robin Hvidston indicated that the goal of the We the People organization is to keep the borders
secure and enforce the law.
17. A man from the audience spoke about the high cost of illegal immigration.
18. Susan Keithly stressed that they can not control what people say on their Face book page and
denied standing outside in order to intimidate people. She noted that the Center's records have
shown that a very high number of dogs were euthanized in 2012. She provided photographs of two
volunteers apparently assisting at the No Dog Left Behind event. These volunteers were not
wearing the proper uniform. Mrs. Keithly noted that one of the reasons that she was dismissed
was for not wearing the proper attire. Also, she noted that one of the volunteers appeared to be
younger than 18.

19. Ondra Gilbertson displayed pictures of two dogs needing adoption from the Animal Care and
Services Center. She noted that the only people who work at this facility were the volunteers who
were fired. She requested that a meeting be set up with the Director and the volunteers.
110. Allison Kreider indicated that inflated numbers were used in 2012 to justify the approval of two
full time positions at the Center. She provided a patrol log and indicated that the alleged increase
in service equated to less than 1.7 calls per day. Also, Mrs. Kreider noted that the Center tried to
sell them blank pieces of paper.
111. Jesse Kreider indicated that he was involved in this scam in 2012 to get more taxpayer money
for the Center. He expressed his intent to deceive the City Council and the public to get the
request for additional personnel approved.
112. Marla Tauscher displayed the notices of dismissal. She referenced the City Attorney's
comments at the last meeting that he wasn't aware of harassment at the Center (the notice
indicated the volunteer(s) were released because they were creating a hostile environment). Mrs.
Tauscher noted that the volunteers were dismissed for speaking out.
113. John Lyons noted that school is back in session and reminded everyone to watch for children.
Also, he referenced the dismissed volunteers and pointed out that quite a bit of money was spent
in taking over animal services from the County. He wondered how much it would cost to provide
what the group wants now. Mr. Lyons noted that National Night Out was a great success.
114. Nicole Myerchin urged the Council to change our animal keeping policy and work collectively
to save some animals starting today.
In response to the comments made by Mrs. Tauscher, Mr. Markman indicated that his comments
made two weeks ago were in response to a different scenario. Regarding the grounds for the
dismissal, Mr. Markman noted that while the City couldn't discuss them or make the information
public, the volunteers could do so if they choose.

CITY COUNCIL
Speaker cards may be submitted for all those who wish to speak on the following topic(s). The
following items have no legal publication or posting requirements. Comments are to be limited
to five minutes per individual or less, as deemed necessary by the Chair, depending upon the
number of individuals wishing to speak. All communications are to be addressed directly to the
Fire Board, Authority Board or City Council, not to members of the audience.
N1. Consideration for the removal of vehicles illegally parked on public streets in the vicinity of
Cucamonga Canyon through the implementation of Municipal Code Section 10.44.140,
"Immobilization and/or Removal of Vehicles from Streets, Highways, Off-Street Parking
Facilities and Handicapped Parking Spaces".
Jason Welday, Traffic Engineer, presented the staff report.
In response to Mayor Michael, Mr. Welday confirmed that the authority to tow vehicles is already in
the Municipal Code and indicated that he would like authorization from the Council to tow vehicles.
In response to Council Member Williams, Mr. Welday confirmed that the signs would need to be
changed in order to reflect that cars parked illegally would be subject to tow. Mr. Welday noted that
the intent would be to tow illegally parked vehicles from Cucamonga Canyon at first. If staff finds
that it would be beneficial to remove illegally parked vehicles from other areas, this would be
discussed further with the Police Department and the City Manager's office and signs would
eventually need to be placed in those areas.
Mayor Michael opened the administrative hearing.
Jim Frost was supportive of the need to penalize people, but did not want them to lose their cars.
John Lyons noted that there is sporadic cell phone reception in that area and expressed concerns
with stranded people and their treatment of the neighborhood.
Mike Keele noted that the amount of trash in his neighborhood has been staggering. He suggested
that this area be closed.
Dennis Cisneros suggested that the City consider subcontracting its services to the Forest Service
so that the job can be done.
Dorothy Burchfield suggested that an announcement be placed on the City's social media site
advising people of the pending action. She also noted that a tow truck could be acquired and could
be placed closed by to give people a better idea. Lastly, she volunteered to help spread the word.
Mayor Michael closed the administrative hearing.
In response to Mayor Michael, Mr. Welday indicated that the signs would be changed and that he
would work with the Police Department to create a sign telling people where their cars will be
located in the event they are towed.
Mayor Pro Tem Spagnolo pointed out that people are parking in the narrow parts of the street,
which prohibit fire engines from traveling in that area. He noted that drivers have the responsibility
to obey posted signs. He stressed the need to protect the community and the people who live
here.
In response to Council Member Williams, Mr. Welday expected that the signs would be ready by
September.
MOTION: Moved by Williams, seconded by Spagnolo, to approve the recommendation in the staff
report. Motion carried 5-0.
