She felt something definitely needs to be done to assure there is better quality construction because she felt that was part of the "big" problem. Mayor Stout stated he felt the Ordinance in Chino which deals with workmanship, posting of bonds and warranties should be looked at by the Council Subcommittee because it seems to be working so well. Councilmember Alexander stated he would like to look at Chino's Ordinance and include it as part of the study. Councilmember Buquet stated the B.I.A. has offered their assistance on this matter.
