Council Member Hussey provided a written summary of his report as follows:
• Good Evening everyone thank you for coming out tonight.
• 1 have a couple of comments on the SCAG meeting in which I attended last week
but before I do I would just like to pass out a couple of trinkets to my colleagues. I /

• Mayor since you are a Lions Member and the head of this City Government I got you
C % this stress Lion.
• Mayor Pro Tern since you often use an I-Pad and you might need extra storage I got
you this flash drive.
• Council Member Mitchell, I got you a new pen since you are always writing notes
and you might be running out of ink with your old one. Plus it has a scroll you and
pull out and read how to help with clean air.
• Council Member Wilson, I got you this hard hat. It might not fit but since you teach a
construction class it might help to squeeze the hat for a little relief.
• City Manager Duffey, I got you some information about LED street lights. Plus the
money we save we can put street lights on all of the streets in GT. That would be a
big plus.
• For the residents of GT I picked up some information that I will give to the City to
post on saving your citrus trees from pests. I know most residents have those trees
on their property.
• For the City Attorney, the last meeting I gave you a question about the California
Voters Rights Act. This time I am going to ask you about CEQA which means
California Environmental Quality Act. This is for development rules.
• Now to move on about my SCAG meeting. The meaning of SCAG is Southern
California Association of Governments.
• On SCAG the City of Grand Terrace, Colton, Loma Linda, Redlands, and Yucaipa
are under Regional Council District 6. Our representative for this area is Councilman
Frank Navarro from Colton. This is a two year term seat. And he is doing a great job.
This is his second term.

• SCAG President : Michele Martinez, Santa Ana, District 16
• SCAG First V. P: Margaret E. Finley, Durate, District 35
• SCAG Second V. P: Alan Wapner, Ontario, SANBAG THOSE WERE OUR
AGENDAS
• Moving on I attended two sessions on topics I felt were important to GT.
The First Topic was (Trending to Transformation-The Future won't wait)
• The "Silver Tsunami" is upon us. Every month, more than a quarter million
Americans turn 65and about 10,000 of them retire each day. Baby Boomers are
rapidly transitioning to the "GO-GO" phase, leaving the work force and productivity in
the hands of the Millennials. As Baby Boomers move on, they also move forward,
looking for smaller homes, walkable neighborhoods and closer proximity to family
and friends. However, recent evidence shows more Millennials are staying put,
buying fewer cars and preferring to rent rather than own. These changes couples
with technology advances are shaping how we live, work and play. Even our
communities are being planned and constructed differently to respond to the
demands of the 21 st century lifestyle.
• Here are some of the discussions on this subject.
1. Most Boomers start New Careers after they turn 50 plus. Either a new job for a
second career or volunteer on numerous events and charitable functions. So that
make Boomers what to stay in the game and 80% never retire.
2. Millennials want affordable housing; they don't really care about big homes with big
lawns. Thy have no economic power because they don't own a home or cars. They
don't mind mass transportation or walking to nearby shopping centers. They rather
order everything on line even groceries.
• Question was asked, How do you move "Old Timers" to change their 1950 mentally
and transitions their communities towards the future besides voting them out?
• Answer Community Congress ask communities leaders what they want.
• Here in GT we do that and always maintain a line of communication with everyone.
The Second Session Topic was (Southern California Affordable & Livable)
• Affordability in Southern California has become an increasingly elusive goal. While
we've recovered the jobs lost during the Great Recession, stagnant wages and sky-
high home prices are impacting what people can buy, where they live and work.
California's long-term economic growth prospects rely on our ability to stabilize the
i
City of Grand Terrace Page 4
Minutes Grand Terrace City Council May 10, 2016
term economic growth prospects rely on our ability to stabilize the region's jobs-
housing balance. What can be done to get enough homes built close to jobs and
transit and make housing in California more affordable? How can we attract and
grow jobs that will provide livable wages for residents?
• You Know One Hour Class is not going to solve this problem. This problem has
been going on for years but here are a couple of things that were brought up.
• Orange County is facing a crises and is trying to become more affordable and
assessable to the younger Adults. Only older residents are living there and it hurts
there tax revenue and service sector and sales tax base because residents are
buying less and living or purchase their home when they were cheaper.
• California Populations from 2005 thru 2015 has grown to 32 million people but in that
time frame only 1.1 million permits to build homes or apartments or townhomes were
issued. Do the math. Not that many homes so yes prices are up on supply and
demand. Which we already knew that.
• Rent in this state on average is $2000.00 a month so this makes most people house
poor or resident poor and they rely on government programs just to buy food
because over 50% of their paycheck goes toward housing.
• Most cities focus on retail development instead of housing. This is can of a catch 22.
Millennials want affordable housing but also want easy and walkable access to
shopping centers.
• So the answer that the panel came up with is.
• Compact development for affordable housing. Smaller Lots.
• Change Fiscal rules to help make housing more affordable.
• Build more homes to make supply and demand more affordable and this returns
generates more property tax dollars for the community.
• For Job creations. For every home build it creates 1 Y2 jobs.
Here are a couple other things that were discussed during the SCAG.
• Recession is believed to be coming to Calif soon. We are overdue because not that
many IPO or new jobs creations and industry and manufacturing are leaving the
state.
• You know 2/3 of the state budget is based on state income tax it receives for tax
payers. So if jobs are leaving this state the budget will be hit hard.
City of Grand Terrace Page 5
Minutes Grand Terrace City Council May 10,'2616
• Most retirees leave this state and set up a new place of residency in other states
where there is no income tax. The biggest state that is benefiting for this is Nevada.
One main reason because most of all law makers retire from Sacramento and move
to Reno to save on taxes. The same politicians who voted to raise taxes are leaving
the state. Speaking of raise in Taxes the Cap and Trade is raising excise tax on all
fuel and diesel will be going up 5.62% .
• All I can do is shake my head and you .know it up to us voters to make it right and
vote in the right persons for office and the people we vote in we make accountable
for their actions and not to waste this state away.
That sums up my SCAG comments and highlight Topics. I just had some residents and
volunteers concern I hope the city can look at.
• Pico Park AKA Veterans Freedom Park. Residents voice concern of young kids from
the High School jumping the fence while school is in session and going to the park to
hang out and destroying fields and backstops. Also smoking Marijuana in the park
and also young adults smoking Marijuana in the restroom during baseball games
and smoking cigarettes all over the park. Also adults been caught doing lewd acts in
the restroom during baseball games. And one other complaint is people letting their
dog run free without a leash and the dog doing its business all over the park and no
one picking it up. So I think we need some new signs stating the ordinance and we
need to make a presence with code or law enforcement to make our parks safe and
enjoyable for all residents and to have violations taken care of appropriately.
• Another resident call me and said the apartment .complex she is living at is
becoming run down and the manager does not care and people are leaving this city
because of it and finding a better place to live. I don't know about this but I assume
we have some responsibility to look into this with code enforcement. They are
running a business and they should make sure their clients have a safe and well
maintain place to live if the clients are paying for this service. Does code
enforcement have certain routes or does it make a daily drive around out City?
Well I talked long enough. I think I am good for the rest of the year. Thank You and God
Bless.

presentation for this item.
Mayor McNaboe asked if Zone 2 was the Highland Apartments? Why in the past were
the engineering reports so low and now so high?
City of Grand Terrace Page 9
Minutes Grand Terrace City Council May 10,1616
Planning & Building Development Services Director Molina confirmed that it was the
Highland Apartments. The current engineering report reflects the City's true cost and it
was the City's intent to recuperate all of their true costs. In the past, the City had not
recuperated the full cost.
Council Member Wilson asked if this was an estimated cost. How would these be
adjusted? Annually?
Planning & Building Development Services Director Molina answered that this report
was based on the actuals for 2015/2016 and adjusted annually.
Council Member Mitchell asked if the City would still be subsidizing?
City Manager Duffey confirmed that the City would be subsidizing over $3,000.
Mayor McNaboe stated that the City could look at ways to reduce cost regardless if the
fees were increased.
City Manager Duffey answered absolutely and staff is currently finding these
alternatives.
Council Member Hussey asked City Manager Duffey if the residents were aware of what
would happen if this did not pass: the potential of losing its landscaping and lighting.
City Manager Duffey stated that this was a Prop 218 issue and a notice would be sent
to each owner and they have the ability to vote for or against it.
Council Member Mitchell asked what would happen if they did not vote. She also
requested options for reduced services.
City Manager Duffey stated that no ballot returned was considered a yes vote. City staff
was looking at a gradual increase to the assessment. If the assessment failed then staff
would come back to Council with options on the reduction of services.
Council Member Wilson was concerned with the 60% increase of the water being that
this was a drought year. He also clarified that it appeared that administrative costs were
not being added in the past and were now being added.
City Manager Duffey clarified that this assessment had never been increased since its
inception according to the consultants.

adding the tow away signs.
City Attorney Adams stated that the resolutions do not reflect what the Council was
motioning.

Westwood Avenue and Westwood Street
Mayor McNaboe stated that she heard divided discussion with the residents in

other solutions be tried.
City Manager Duffey stated that he had spent significant time on this issue with these
residents and this particular solution was agreed on by the consensus of the attendees
at his meeting with the residents. He supports this solution for the greater good of the
residents on these streets.
Council Member Mitchell thanked staff for the time spent on this item. She would like
the consensus of the Council to bring this item back to them because she believed that
the access to the Blue Mountain needed to be addressed.
Council Member Wilson suggested privatizing this road.
City Manager Duffey stated that at a minimum if the Council did the red curb and added
the tow away signs it would address the original intent of the Council.

items the resolution could be amended tonight.
