She directed the City Clerk, on her behalf, to place under Future Agenda Items Request

type of cannabis, cultivation or retail in the City and a broad estimate of revenue for the

Council Member Robles stated that the cannabis community has a database on who
voted for recreational cannabis in the City and according to the data, Grand Terrace
residents voted in favor. If someone suggests a survey, the data is already available.
Mayor Pro Tern Doug Wilson
Mayor Pro Tern Doug Wilson provided some information he obtained from one of the
discovery channels from 2009 regarding the San Andreas Fault. He stated it is
estimated that from 2009, there is a 99% chance that a large event wial happen within
30 years from the date of that broadcast. It has scientifically been determined that there
is 300 inches worth of pent up energy; 25 feet worth of elasticity below the crust. He
encourages everyone individually to be prepared for a large earthquake event within the
next 20 years.
Mayor Pro Tern Wilson is frustrated that residents in the community only slow down
when a speed feedback sign is placed. He asks that everyone in the community drive
safely and slowdown, especially in residential areas.
