Janet Laiblin, South Coast Air Quality Management District introduced herself as the San Bernardino liaison for AQMD. ORAL REPORTS 5A. Committee Reports -None COUNCIL REPORTS Mayor Pro Tem Ferre, reported that she had the opportunity to attend the IEEP Meeting, which is the Inland Empire Economic Partnership meeting. They have moved to a new location in Riverside. The discussion was how to make California, especially the Inland Empire, business friendly. The private sector membership of IEEP is down because businesses are just not coming to California. An interesting statistic that was given is that right now there is 9 million square feet of dead office in the Silicon Valley alone. She also represents the Council on the Gangs and Drugs Task Force and they also met last week. JMichael Martinez from the San Bernardino County District Attorneys Office talked a little bit about the Community Prosecution Program. She gave an overview of the program. The program is working very well, however it is expensive. She attended the League of California Cities Annual conference in Sacramento along with the City Manager, Councilmember Hilkey and Mayor Garcia. The League sponsored a ballot measure to strengthen the constitutional protection of local revenues,which passed unanimously and is now going on to the next step. She thanked the Grand Terrace Firefighters for the very moving 9/11 Memorial and welcomed back Councilmember Bea Cortes. Councilmember Hilkey, reported that Omnitrans passed a rate increase, however they are getting opposition from a group of people that are totally dependent, i.e., those that are mentally or physically challenged. Omnitrans has decided to hold off on the increases for those individuals that are totally dependent upon transportation. He attended the Annual League Meeting and although Councilmember Cortes was unable to attend the conference she graduated from the Mayors and Councilmembers Academy and he congratulated her. He feels that the most dynamic and the most exciting and the most successful part of the League right now is what they call CITIPAC. It is an Initiative driven to copy what the school districts did back in prop 98 to guarantee through a constitutional limit through the State of California that so much money would stay with the cities. He is very impressed with the effectiveness of the League•of California Cities and the success that was demonstrated this past week. There is so much excitement and unity in the cities to go back to legislation in Sacramento and say leave the Cities monies alone. He felt that the 9/11 Memorial that l Council Minutes September 11,2003 Page 4 was held at the Fire Station was very touching and well done. It made all of the news station and Grand Terrace got good exposure from it. He felt that the Union President gave a great speech as well as the Fire Captain from New York. Councilmember Larkin, welcomed back Councilmember Cortes. He congratulated Councilmember Cortes on being honored as one of the four Women of Achievement at the Fiesta de la Muerte and felt that it was very commendable and appropriate that she received this award. He reported that he attended the 9/11 Memorial at the Grand Terrace Fire Station and felt that it was a wonderful and well deserved event. The New York Firefighters and our local firefighters should all be commended and honored for their bravery. Councilmember Cortes,reported that she attended the Memorial for 9/11 that was held at the Fire Station and felt that it was very moving, touching, and emotional. She appreciated the most the-bond of the two stations and the friendship that they have established. She would like to go to New York and visit station 23 and take a bag of goodies from Grand Terrace. She is very glad to be back-and thanked staff for the notes and flowers. She thanked Councilmember Hilkey for all-of his thoughtfulness and consideration that his family has shown her. Mayor Garcia, welcomed Councilmember Cortes back. She encouraged anyone that is interested in the High School to attend the Grand Terrace Chamber of Commerce meeting where they will have Dennis Byas, Superintendent of Colton Joint Unified School District, speaking. On September 18,2003 from 9:00-3:00"Celebrating Seniors 2003"will be held at the National Orange Show Fairgrounds;which is all Free. The Grand Terrace Lions Club will be holding a Pancake Breakfast on October 12, 2003 from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. All proceeds will go to benefit the Grand Terrace Branch Library. She attended an event with Councilmember Larkin,the Inland Empire'Visioning. It was a very good session where they talked about the future. She stated that there was some excellent reports that she will share with the City. There was a good session on the 2003 Indicators Report related to education, environment, housing development, technology, and transportation. She thanked Councilmember Hilkey for his memo and update on the SANBAG Survey and the Honey Hill Traffic signal that he sent to all of the members of the Council. She requested that Staff and Council set October 9 as the date to talk about transportation as a whole. She feels it is critical as we move forward on the Measure renewal that there is an expenditure plan that goes along with it. She requested that our SANBAG Representatives at the next Board Meeting specifically ask for the Expenditure Plan for the renewal of Measure I. She has heard that they are trying to keep it rather generic and she is concerned with that due to the fact that when they went out for the measure before we were one of the projects that were definitely suppose to be funded and due to cost overruns of the other-7 or 8 projects ahead of us,ours did not get done. She feels that it is imperative, for our residents,that 215 South gets called in the next Measure renewal and the time is getting closer and closer. She would like a report back to the Council at the October 9, 2003 Meeting. She is going to invite Ty Council Minutes September 11,2003 Page 5 Schuiling to come to the meeting so he can participate in the discussion on our transportation priorities. She feels that it is important for the entire Council to understand what the priorities are and how they all work and more importantly how the funding goes along with them. She requested that staff prepare a matrix on what the transportation priorities are, where the projects are and the funding sources. She indicated that at the next Council meeting we will be discussing the directly elected Mayor proposal that a group of citizens have brought forth so she has asked the City Attorney to prepare a report. She reported that one of her good friends that works for IEEP said that the people at IEEP and the Tech Park use the Starbucks in Grand Terrace as the meeting place of choice. She attended the League of California Cities Annual Conference and shares Councilmember Hilkey's and Mayor Pro Tem Ferr6's enthusiasm as we move forward on the initiative to make sure that local government continues their funding. They have done some educational programs in the Community and is sure that the Council will be supportive of going out and continuing that educational effort. It will be very difficult for the Council to do their job if the State has taken away all of our money so we want to make sure and keep our local funds here. The best chance of that is what Councilmember Hilkey said and that is to protect it constitutionally. She thanked the staff for the tremendous work that they do for the City and that it is greatly appreciated. She expressed her love of poetry and read a poem regarding human spirit and event that took place on September 11, 2001. Councilmember Hilkey, questioned if Council is going to come up with a new priority list at the October 9`h meeting. Mayor Garcia, responded that she would like to have discussion on the priorities that staff will put together and if there is a need to make changes it will be agendized at a later meeting. It was the consensus of the Council to hold a Transportation Workshop on October 9,2003, prior to the meeting beginning at 5:30. PUBLIC HEARING -None UNFINISHED BUSINESS -None NEW BUSINESS 8A.

There is widespread agreement that the state-local fiscal relationship is broken. One of the reasons is because state leaders no longer respect the difference between state and local tax revenues. In recent years, the state legislature and governor have approved laws that divert, use or delay the payment of local tax revenues to local governments that finance public safety, public health, park, library, street maintenance and other vital community services.This has caused pressure for higher local fees that can increase the cost of housing. Local Funds Drained for Higher State Spending. Since 1991 more than$30 billion of local property taxes have been drained from local governments.The state has used these funds to finance its constitutional funding obligation to public education,allowing it to increase state general fund spending for other state programs.This has come at the expense of vital local public safety and other services—costing cities alone more than $800 million this year—or$6.9 billion in lost local property taxes over the last twelve years. State Shifts Costs to Local Governments. In recent years the state also has shifted costs for state-sponsored programs and delayed constitutionally required reimbursements to local governments for state mandated programs and services. In the last two fiscal years,thestate has"deferred"over$1 billion in constitutionally required reimbursements to local governments for mandated services and programs. J Constitutional Protection Needed Now. City and other local government leaders know that in the current state budget crisis this problem will only get worse'if something isn't done. As a result, the League and other local government associations have joined forces to sponsor a ballot initiative in November 2004 to put the voters in charge of whether local tax dollars should be used to fund state services. It would not prevent structural reform of the fiscal system. It would simply require that structural changes be planned collaboratively by state and local leaders and approved by the voters. It would not raise taxes. It would not repeal laws the state has already passed. It would not require the return of property taxes already taken. It would do two simple things: i • Public Vote Reouired. Require approval by a majority of the electorate before a proposed state law may take effect that appropriates, reallocates, redistributes, reduces or suspends the payment of local tax revenues(sales, property and VLF)to cities,counties and special districts;and Reimburse for Mandated Costs. Clarify that the state must reimburse local governments for a new mandated program or higher level of service and when revenues previously allocated to local government are reallocated or redistributed to a state-created fund. i Consulting Team.
