PUBLIC ADDRESS
David Mlynarski, asked what options are available to an applicant who has followed all
of the rules, filed applications, has been working with staff in a very cooperative manner,
agreeing to expansion of notification radiuses and other public hearing type requests, in
order to make hearings as broad ranging and as fair as possible. What does an
applicant do when all they are seeking is an expeditious processing of its application? It
appears the body is having difficulty in bringing an item forward. Mr. Mlynarski asked
the City to get back to him and let him know if the body is unable to hold an expeditious
hearing, and what options does an applicant have in order to do so.
Bobbie Forbes, Grand Terrace asked everyone in the Council Chamber to use whatever
power they have to help with the illegal fireworks in town. She asked the community to
send emails, contact the sheriffs department, get addresses, send messages, make
phone calls to the non-emergency number to the sheriffs department, and send an
email to the City Clerk if an address is obtained. It is out of control this year and is only
going to get worse in the next three weeks.
Juanita Umbaugh, Grand Terrace appreciates the Planning Commission's hard work on
behalf of the community to bring in new business. She also thanked it for notifying the
community and making all of its letters appropriate during this very difficult time. She
appreciates the Planning Commission not rushing its decisions, taking its time, and
making sure new business is right for the City.
