despite great odds,temporary set-backs and some political gameship at times. The Senior
Center, the Citrus Grove, the Town Center Development will all serve as lasting
improvements to the City. Just as important we came together as a Council to hire a top
quality City Manager and with her professional staff, she feels that the City administration
is in very good hands. As a private citizen now she is really looking forward to taking full
advantage of the new state of the art Stater Bros. grocery store. None of these things would
have ever been possible without the hard work and active support of so many concerned
citizens in this community. She is truly indebted to the many members of the community
who rallied around these very important causes. None of these achievements would have
been possible without the residents turning out for important meetings and advocating on a
daily basis for the best interest of the City of Grand Terrace. It was so important that parents
and residents stood up and said that the new high school in Grand Terrace would be named
"Grand Terrace High School" you will see her at the football games proudly wearing her
Titans sweatshirt. She feels that they are so lucky to live in a City where the community
leaders focused on giving back to the community and not the personal glory or political
advancements. It is her hope that future Councils will maintain that focus in order to move
the City forward and preserve the very special close knit community. Thank you.

PUBLIC COMMENT -
Tobin Brinker, City of San Bernardino Councilmember, indicated that he would like to
congratulate the newly elected Council Members and Mayor. He stated that he grew up in
Grand Terrace. His children went to school in the community. About 18 months ago the
City went to war about an issue of naming the High School. Mr. Sandoval and Mr.
Stanckiewitz joined him in that battle. They were successful in getting the name of the high
school to be named for the community. He thanked both of them for their efforts. He has
the upmost respect for both of them. He has watched them throughout the campaign and the
City of Grand Terrace .is lucky to have them. He feels that they aren't the traditional
candidates. He reported that he went to one of their house parties during the campaign. They
were working together to coordinate with some of the school board candidates. Normally
when a politician sits down to talk with people they keep things fairly general. These guys
got down in the weeds and spent about three hours talking with a small group of residents
about the details of City Government and what they planned to do if elected. They spoke
from their hearts and talked about what they saw was going on in the City. When they say
that they want openness and transparency they really want to make this about what is best for
the community. He has nothing but the greatest respect for both of them and is excited for
them to be in their positions that they are in and knows that they will do a great job and is
looking forward to working with them in his capacity as a Councilmember in San
Bernardino. He stated that he doesn't know Darcy yet but he is looking forward to talking
with her more. He stated that it was good to see Lee Ann again and feels that she has a good
group of people to work with.
Randall Ceniceros, 15862 Falcon Court,Fontana, is a newly elected Board Member for the
Colton Joint Unified School District and came to congratulate the newly elected Council
Members and Mayor. He would like to create a partnership as we go forward and try to fully
develop Grand Terrace High School. There was a lot of controversy going into the naming
of the High School and now that he has taken his seat on the School Board he wants to reach
out to the Council and let the community know that they are committed to getting the high
school completed. He has known Bernardo for quite some time and knows that he has been
an activist in the community and extended himself out to the Colton community. He feels
Council Minutes
12/14/2010
Page 8
that Walt provides great vision and has great leadership skills. He stated that he had an
opportunity to sit down with members of the community during the meet and greets and
appreciates that they have reached out to the school board members and stated that they have
an open door for the Council and that they are always welcome at the School Board
Meetings. He Congratulated them.
Patt Haro, 15753 Firethorn Road, Fontana, indicated that she is the newly elected Board
President of the Colton Joint Unified School District. She looks forward to working together
with the City Council. She believes that the voters of the cities of the School District spoke
loud and clear when they cast this past election. They wanted change and they have
respected that change by putting her in as Board President. She assured the Council the
citizens of Grand Terrace that they are willing to work together and is looking forward to
working with the City. She wants to be clear that this will be a Board that will be transparent
above all. On November 17, 2010 they received a letter from Veneer Construction that the
building of Grand Terrace High School would not be completed by August of 2011. This
Thursday evening at 5:30 p.m.they have a special board meeting dedicated solely to the issue
of Grand Terrace High School. They want to be as transparent as possible. Everything will
be heard that has to do with the building of the high school and the delay directly from the
construction company at the same time they will. She would like to assure the Council that
the relationship that the School District will have with them will continue in this transparent
manner and looks forward to working with each and everyone of the Council and the citizens
of Grand Terrace. She congratulated all of the newly elected officials.
Mayor Stanckiewitz, stated that things are changing and they will change for the positive.
He encouraged everyone to attend the Special Board Meeting and listen to what they have
to say.
Councilmember Sandoval, stated that the City and the School Board are tied at the hip
because of the new high school. What happens there will directly affect the City. He sees
Grand Terrace High School as being the center of the community in the future. There is a
new Board that is committed to doing what is right. Their discussions and debates will be
based on what is best for children not based on political interest, control or power. He
appreciates the school board very much and is looking forward to working with them.
Charles Hornsby,22656 Brentwood Street,reported that there has always been a little bit of
a traffic problem on Brentwood Street. It is a long street that stretches about a '/2 mile.
Recently it has gotten worse. There is an intersection right across from the school where
there is a stop sign and at least three to four times a day, people blow through the stop sign
going 35 to 45 mph. He is concerned that someone will get hurt and would like the City to
do something. He feels that Sylvia Robles would be a great candidate to fill the Vacancy on
the Council.

City Managery Adams, stated that she will talk to the Sheriff s Department regarding
the traffic issue on Brentwood.
Robert Krause,22710 Eton Drive, stated that he lives across the street from the back side of
Terrace View Elementary School. He reported that kids jump the fence to skateboard inside
the court yard. He would like to see the City provide a skate park for the community. He
feels that the parks should be for the kids so that they have some place to go.
Tom Roberts,22111 Newport Avenue#148,stated that in October he challenged the Council
to be more transparent and to find a way to reach out to the citizens. He would like to re-
challenge the Council to make sure that it happens. He stated that he is not crazy about
paying for an election to fill the vacancy on the Council. He stated that the community voted
for them to make the decisions and that he would trust their judgement should they decide
to appoint someone. He congratulated the newly elected Councilmembers and wished then
luck. He thanked those Councilmembers that retired for their service.
Pilar Tabera, 1401 Jennifer Court,congratulated the newly elected Council and Mayor. He
indicated that he is looking forward to working with Mayor Pro Tem. Garcia and hopes to
establish a friendship and trust. He congratulated Councilmember McNaboe and stated that
he is looking forward to working with her and getting to know her better. He congratulated
Mayor Walt Stanckiewitz. He indicated that he met him during campaigning and he made
an impression on him and his family. He feels that Grand Terrace is lucky to have him. He
congratulated Councilmember Bernardo Sandoval.
Councilmember Sandoval,feels that Pilar Tabera won his election because of Grand Terrace.
He stated that this means Grand Terrace won't be ignored and won't have to fight the battles
anymore. He feels that it is a good day for the City and the Board.
Gary Grossich, 1411 W. Washington, Colton,congratulated Councilmember Sandoval and.
Mayor Stanckiewitz. He stated that he is on the Measure G Bond Committee and encouraged
everyone to attend the Special Meeting of the Board. He stated that change can happen from
the inside and from the outside if you are persistent. He feels that people are tired of
professional politicians,they are looking for people that can relate to the people that live in
the community and that will make decisions on what is good for the people that live there
and not what is good for their own personal political career.
COUNCIL REPORTS
Mayor Pro Tem.Garcia,requested that Director of Building& Safety/Public Works give an
overview of the I215 Public Hearing that was held last night at Grand Terrace Elementary.
Director of Building & Safety/Public Works Shields, responded that the meeting was a
Council Minutes
12/14/2010
Page 10
Public Hearing and a Notice of Intent to adopt a Negative Declaration for the I215 Gap
Closure. That is the HOV lanes that will go from the I215/60/91 Interchange in Riverside
all the way to the Orange Show Road exit. It is the addition of two lanes. Some right of way
will be increased and there are some proposals for sound walls to be constructed. The main
problem that he saw was a lot of the commercial businesses that have been there for quite
a while had an issue with the sound walls that they are proposing to construct. He feels that
for the most part, everyone that was there was able to speak and have their concerns
documented. It was heavily attended in the form of an open house. He feels that is was a
good meeting and that there will be more meetings to come.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, requested that this project be placed on the website with a short
paragraph on what happened at the meeting and things that residents should be aware of.
Stated that Reader's Digest is having a contest where they will be giving away 5 million
dollars in funds. She encouraged people to vote for Grand Terrace. Reported that she was
appointed to the Consolidated Transportation Services Agency. They will provide transit
services to seniors and persons with disabilities and low income. They are trying to make
this a non-profit. She thanked the Fire Department for Santa going through the
neighborhoods. She wished everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Councilmember Sandoval, shared that the intent and purpose for him running for Grand
Terrace City Council is truly to make the community a better community. The vision that
he has for Grand Terrace is probably very different than what has been heard in the past. He
would love to see the systems within the City talk to each other in terms of data being able
to be collected from different systems and being able to be centralized and put it to a
webpage so that the people in the community can actually see where the budget is in real
time through a web dash port. It takes re-engineering of business processes. Things will
have to be looked at differently. This will create a transparency that the City has not had.
Staff worked very hard and he is impressed with their work ethic. We have to work together
in these times to provide the resources and do what is necessary to shift the way of looking
at things and to not accept the way that we have done things in the past but to challenge them
and see what can be done to make the process more efficient to the people of Grand Terrace.
These things can be done and can be implemented and we can change together to make
Grand Terrace a much better City. He feels that the information needs to flow more freely
within the City and out to the residents. The lack of information creates mis-trust. The ideas
that he brings to the table are different because his background is technology. It is not always
easy but he guarantees that he will do everything possible to do what is right, ethical, and
advocate for the people for all the people of Grand Terrace. He feels that it is time to move
past the election and into governing. He thanked everyone in Grand Terrace who supported
him and gave him their vote of confidence and that this is a deep honor. He asked that the
meeting be adjourned in memory of Ray Abril, Jr. who passed away yesterday. He stated
that he was a man who many have different opinions and feelings on. He stated that he got
engaged in school board because he simply cared about people. He engage in injustices that
Council Minutes
12/14/2010
Page 11
were occurring and did it strongly. He was never motivated for self or money and he was a
huge inspiration and mentor to him.
Councilmember McNaboe,stated that she has a background in process improvement and she
has been thinking some of the same things. She feels that there needs to be a method of
deciding what are the ways and best practices for how things are done in the City. She would
like to see the City look at the priorities this point going forward on how we can begin to
start budgeting for up to date technology. She feels that even though there is a cost
associated with it there is a return on investments that is huge. The time that is saved and
the accuracy and the ability to answer questions and communicate with staff,she feels is very
important. She would really like to see the City move toward that as the Council sets their
priorities. She stated that she has a copy of something that the City of Redlands is looking
at implementing in their City. It is a proposal of stated City Values. She would like Grand j
Terrace to consider coming up with some values that can be stated and abide by. She
reported that the Grand Terrace Area Chamber of Commerce has done their annual holiday
decorations voting and is looking forward to hearing the results. She wished everyone Happy
Holidays, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Mayor Stanckiewitz,reported that last week they spent time going around mending fences,
spreading good will. He attending the swearing in of the Colton Council Members and the
Board for the Colton Joint Unified School District. He reported that the Child Care Center
did their Christmas programs last week and he was fortunate enough to attend one of the
Tiny Tots program. It was a great program and commended the staff for their efforts. He
reported that Wilden Pump will be having.a blood drive on Wednesday,December 22,2010
from 12 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The blood mobile will be in their corporate parking lot. He
requested,that this information be placed on the reader board and on the website. He
reported that Colton High School are CIF Champs. A lot of Grand Terrace kids play on the
football team. He would like the City to do something to honor the football team. He
thanked the Historical and Cultural Activities Committee for the Anniversary Dinner and
enjoyed the presentation. He read the following quote "Symbols of hope are destroyed by
old habit."

Walt Stanckiewitz"Councilman Stanckiewitz will not have a conflict of interest in
any council decision relating to the Town Square Master Development Proj ect where
it is not reasonably foreseeable that that decision will have an affect on his business
that meets or exceeds the materiality threshold appropriate for that business as
described below."
On November 9, 2010, on the vote for the State Bros. Development Agreement
Councilman Stanckiewitz provided the following statement in the minutes that were
approved tonight on page 4. "Councilmember Walt Stanckiewitz made the following
announcement relative to this item: We have been spending a lot of time with the
Fair Political Practices Commission, trying to get readings on a lot of things. John
Harper, our City Attorney on my behalf, submitted a written request for a
determination on whether I had a conflict of Interest with my business as it related
to the Town Square Project. We have gotten written confirmation from the FPPC
that I do not have a conflict of Interest and therefore I may participate in any future
dealings with the Town Square Project so I'm not excusing myself and stepping out
this evening."

She clarified that Councilmember Stanckiewitz was in concurrence with the letter that John
Harper wrote and for clarification for herself and the residents, that he has full knowledge
that the decision to vote on the Stater Bros.projects and deeming no conflict of interest is his
alone. It is not the decision of the City Attorney, the City Manager or the City Council but
solely his.
Mayor Stanckiewitz, stated that it is not a static situation, it is something that he will have
to review on a perpetual basis. It is a materiality standard that has to be applied. He will
have to look at that in every aspect every time they will have to deal with the Town Square
Project. That is his responsibility and based on the information from the FPPC he believes
that he does not have a conflict of interest at this point.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, stated that she would like the following items to be considered as
part of the approval of this agreement:
That in the future she would like a full report on the status of the landscaping project for the
south wall and the La Paix street widening and the plan of action for keeping the Council,
residents and neighborhood informed of the process.
That a time Line with action items of what the process will be between December 2010 and
September 2011 with the proposed opening date of the Stater Bros.
Public Information meetings on the status of the Stater Bros Development during the next
nine months with three meetings staggering the times to allow all residents to attend.
To hold a public workshop with the City Council and Representatives from Stater Bros. to
discuss their future plans and the specifics coming forward.
Mayor Stanckiewitz, stated that the there were two amendments that he had requested to be
added to the Development Agreement and it had been determined that they could not be
added and that they would have to be handled separately because they dealt with other
agreements that existed prior. The City has received a letter from Jacobsen Family Holdings
and Stater Bros.that they do agree to those two amendments and questioned what action staff
will take to make those amendments.
Community and Economic Development Director Powers, responded that staff will work
with the City Attorney to prepare the documents and bring them back to the Council for
approval. She stated that staff would recommend termination of the Disposition and
development agreement because it is a document to sell or dispose of property once certain
criteria has been met. There is no more property to transfer. There are a couple business
items that Stater Bros. would like to keep in agreement between them and the City and
Agency that were included in the DDA and staff will work on a separate document for those.

Escrow has closed between Jacobsen Holdings and Stater Bros. The other document that
was mentioned was the economic development agreement,they have agreed to cap that term
at 5 years if the store has not been constructed.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, stated that she would really like to have a meeting with the Council
and Stater Bros. so that everyone is all on the same page. She requested that a meeting be
held prior to any agreement being placed on a future agenda.
Mike Slaten, Stater Bros Markets, stated that it is their goal to bring as much retail
development as possible. His only concern with taking the properties out of the DDA would
be that someone could build on the property that would be in competition with them. The
goal is do whatever the City wants to do. He would like to have a workshop to sit down and
see what everyone wants to do.
Councilmember Sandoval, state that he is looking forward to digging into the details of this
project and a workshop would be very helpful to him.
City Manager Betsy Adams,expressed her concern with having 3 public meetings with the
heavy schedule that is ahead of us.
Mr. Slaten,stated that they can come to the workshop with a time line so that residents know
what is coming with the building of the store.

DeDe Sternberg, 12215 Michigan, stated that she would like to be appointed to fill the
vacancy on the Council.
Wayne Whipple, 12090 Rosedale Avenue, supports holding a special election.
Terry McGuire, 22525 Franklin Street, supports holding a special election. He feels that
there were plenty of qualified candidates that could be considered and questioned if
applications would be accepted and if people could be interviewed in the event that the
Council should choose to fill the vacancy by appointment.
Bobbie Forbes, 11850 Burns Avenue, supports holding a special election.
Jeffrey McConnell, Walnut Avenue, supports holding a special election. He stated that he
spoke to the ROV and they told him that there was an election coming up in the Summer and
that combining our election with that one could lower the cost. He encouraged staff to look
into that possibility. He feels if an election can be done for less than$5,000.00 that is what
the Council should do.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, feels that this is a very important it and takes everyone's
comments to heart. She has given a lot of thought to this item and she feels that the four
council members will work together and do what is best for the City. In her heart she feels l
that the fair thing to do and the best thing to do is to let the people decide.
Councilmember Sandoval, feels that it is unfortunate that there is two camps. There are
members of a group that feel that Walt, Sylvia and himself are determined to continue the
embarrassment of the City and are deeply afraid. There are people on the other side that want
the reform, change and transparency. How do you reconcile these two groups. That is the
challenge that they face as Councilmembers. He questioned how do they come to an
agreement in such a short period of time when there hasn't been relationships built between
the Council Members. He feels that we don't need more hostility. They need to begin
governing. The fiscal conservancy in him says that there is no way he can support spending
$50,000.00 on a Special Election. He stated that if there is a way to do it in the summer and
be cost effective then could support that. From the Council Report that he has read that does
not seem possible. If it is a possibility then he feels they should look into it.
City Manager Adams, stated that staff would have to check with the Registrar of Voters
Office. Staff can check with them and Council could schedule a special meeting for early
next week.
Councilmember McNaboe,stated that her initial concern with a Special Election is the cost.
On the surface is seems that the most expedient thing to do would be to appoint, however,
what she has seen in the community is that the citizen's decided that they didn't want their
Council Minutes
12/14/2010
Page 17
City Council Members choosing among people that were elected that would be the Mayor
and that is why the Mayor is directly elected. To her that is a shift in the trust on who was
sitting on the dias. In the history of vacancies the Council has traditionally filled them by
appointment. There has been a change and the decision was made to go to Special Election
and to her that means the precedence has been changed. She is unsure that the community
will truly trust who the Council would choose to appoint. From what she is hearing, there
are people who really want to choose who their representatives are. She questioned what the
threshold is for what is too expensive and what we are willing to spend in order to have our
community members believe that they are being represented. If we can have an election that
does tie to another one she would really like to do that. If a special election is decided on she
would like to do it by mail. She is unsure that the four council members could come to an
agreement on who to appoint for this particular position. If the Council does not appoint
someone or call a special election then the seat would sit vacant.
Mayor Stanckiewitz,stated that he is a business man and every dollar counts in his business.
He stated that he has a problem taking$30,000.00 to$50,000.00 out of reserves for a special
election. He stated that the Council is going to have a tough time balancing the budget next
year and we are going to be-drawing out of the reserves. He does not know how long this
economic downturn is going to continue but he really does not want to jeopardize our ability
to continue to balance our budgets by taking$50,000.00 out for a special election. He feels
that the voters spoke this past election. Three out of the four have been selected by the voters
to make decisions on their behalf. They have entrusted their confidence in the Council to
make a decision to pick the right person to fill the seat. He is confident that the Council can
work together and do this. He feels that independent critical thinkers need to be on the
Council. People who aren't afraid to make waves, ask questions and aren't afraid to make
things uncomfortable for others if that is what it takes to have the frank discussions and
decisions that are in the best interest of the City. He feels that this election has awakened the
community to be involved and he would like to give the community the opportunity to tell
the Council. Every other City that has a vacancy is filling it by appointment. He has
received a-mails and phone calls from residents who feel the same way.
Councilmember Sandoval, stated that he has received a-mails who are very strong on both
sides. The real challenge is the level of trust. He feels all the people of Grand Terrace need
to be represented in order to move this process forward. He would hope that the Council can
come to an agreement and appoint someone. He feels that all of the council members share
a common cause.

The City Council meeting was opened with Invocation by Mayor Pro Tern Lee Ann Garcia,
followed by the Pledge of Allegiance led by Councilwoman Darcy McNaboe.
1. Public Comment
Barney Barnett,474 Prospect,Highgrove,feels that it is very important for the entire
region on both sides of the County line in Highgrove and Grand Terrace to get
someone on SANBAG and SCAG Boards that will be aggressive, firm and pursue
the metrolink station stop in Highgrove.
Patricia Farley, 12513 Michigan,she requested that the Council consider to not have
any financial support of the Blue Mountain Paper. She feels that it has a history of
being bias. The misuse of the paper has caused people to think that it represents the
City and she feels that it is being managed by people that have undermined things
that the City needs.
Cynthia Bidney, 12219 Pascal, thanked Mayor Pro Tern for her efforts in trying to
mitigate the South wall. She requested that the Council place the mitigation of the
South wall for open discussion and mitigation at the next meeting.
2. Consider Options to Fill Vacant City Council Seat

Patricia Farley, 12513 Michigan Street,feels that there is no justification whatsoever
for any one other than Sylvia Robles to be appointed to the Council. She feels that
holding a special election is a waste of money and there is no reason why the Council
should not make an appointment to fill the vacant seat.
Bobbie Forbes, 11850 Burns Avenue, feels that she has the right to pick the Mayor,
the right to pick Council Members and she feels that she should have to the right to
pick who fills the vacancy.
Debra Hurst,22950 Orangewood Court, feels that the Council should fill the vacant
seat by appointment and that they should appoint Sylvia Robles.
Roger Kowalski, 22645 Arliss Drive, newly elected School Board Member for the
Colton Joint Unified School District. . He congratulated the newly elected
Councilmembers and Mayor and thanked them for attending the Special Meeting that
was held by the Board. He thanked Mayor Pro Tem Garcia for all her years of
service. He suggested appointing someone to fill the vacant seat on Council.
Robert Krause,22710 Eton Drive,would like the Council to appoint someone to fill
the vacant seat on the Council.
Jeff McConnell,Walnut Avenue,stated that he went to the Registrar of Voters Office
and spoke to a staff member. There is an election on August 30, 2011 but it is not
a general election and it is not one that the City can piggy back on,however we can
do a Mail Ballot Election on that day which would cost approximately$30,000.00.
He stated that May 1,2011 is also available for that type of Mail Ballot Election. He
feels that if the Council doesn't want to spend the money for a special election then
maybe they should just leave the seat vacant.
Terry McGuire,22525 Franklin Street,feels that the vacant seat should not be filled
by appointment. He feels that there are other people that are qualified to fill this
vacancy and should have an opportunity to do so.
Tom Roberts,22111 Newport Avenue#148,he feels that the Council should fill the
vacant seat by appointment and not spend the money on a special election. He feels
that the Council should share with the community those who they may consider for
appointment.
Jim Stamm, 12227 Pascal Avenue, feels that the vacant seat should be filled by
appointment.
Anne Wade Hornsby, 22656 Brentwood Street, supports filling the vacancy by

appointment.
Charles Hornsby, 22656 Brentwood Street, supports filling .the vacancy by
appointment.
Herman Hilkey, 23196 Glendora Drive, feels that if the Council is able to agree on
an appointment that would be the smart thing to do, however if you can't then it
needs to go to a vote of the people.
Betty Guzman,23225 Glendora Drive,feels that the Council should fill the vacancy
by appointment and that the Council should appoint Sylvia Robles.
Mayor Pro Tem. Garcia, stated that she appreciates all of the comments that have
been made this evening and respects the views of everyone. She stated that she will
work with whoever fills the vacant seat and will work with her colleagues.
Councilmember Sandoval,stated that the Council needs to make a decision. He does
not feel comfortable spending$30,000.00 with the current budget that we have. He
feels that there are far better ways to spend that amount of money that would benefit
everyone.
Councilmember McNaboe, stated that the easy thing would be to appoint someone
to fill the vacancy and if cost were the only mitigating factor then we would say we
would save money by not appointing. We could save stipends, health insurance
reimbursement, car allowance and staff time. The cheapest option, if we are going
to go by cost, is to say don't fill it at all. However, she doesn't feel that this is what
the community wants. She has had a number of people contact her and say that they
want to vote. She stated that for anyone who believes that her agenda is served by
putting this to a vote has to realize that she doesn't have any control over who fills
that seat. There is not an agenda there. She stated that she found a couple of
organizations that provide grants for City's that want to become transparent in the
way that they do business. She stated that there are opportunities to fund technology
through grants. People aren't willing to fund elections where people have the
opportunity to stand up and vote for who they want to vote for because they believe
that it is a basic function of government. $30,000.00 to$50,000.00 is a lot of money,
people here tonight are telling the Council to appoint but there are those that have
contacted her that say they want an election. She feels that it is truly a divided
community. They can't make everybody happy no matter which choice they choose.
Mayor Stanckiewitz,stated that there are things coming up that need to be taken care
of and don't know what the costs will be. The future is unknown. He feels that the
Council really needs to consider the money when making this decision. The people
Council Minutes
12/21/2010
Page 4
elected them to make these decisions.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, feels that trust is very important. She feels that it will be
almost impossible to agree with one independent person. She stated that the four of
them could govern the City.
Councilmember Sandoval, feels that it is the Council's responsibility and due
diligence to find someone that they can compromise on. He feels that they can come
together and make a decision.
Councilmember McNaboe, questioned what the appointment process would be.
City Clerk Brenda Mesa,responded that what has been done in the past is that Staff
solicits applications from interested individuals and held public interviews are
conducted in order to make a selection.
Councilmember McNaboe, questioned how the voting was done.
City Clerk Mesa, responded that in the past each council member would rank each
individual and then based on that ranking system a nomination would be made.
City Attorney John Harper, stated that the Council can do the process the way that
they want to. He indicated that ultimately the person who will get appointed is the
one that has the majority vote.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia,stated that the City of Grand Terrace is very unique and has
a very engaged community. There is a likely hood that those who want the Council
to make an appointment won't be happy with the appointment process. She too
would rather not spend the money on an election and have the Council make an
appointment. She is ok not making an appointment and having the four council
members govern the City.
Mayor Stanckiewitz, feels that it is important to have five members on the Council.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, building relationships takes time and she wants the
community to begin healing and she feels that whether they make an appointment or
have an election there are going to be unhappy people. She stated that all of the
Council Members want what is best for the entire community. She feels if there is
a winner half of the community will be unhappy. She stated that if the Council does
not want to spend the money on the election then they should govern the City with
the four council members and show the community that the Council can come to a
consensus.

Councilmember McNaboe, questioned if the Council feels that if there was an
appointment process that three of the four of them could decide on an individual.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, responded in the negative.
Councilmember McNaboe, questioned if there was harm in trying.
` Councilmember Sandoval,questioned if they chose to appoint and they dead lock on
the appointment are there any legal ramifications.
City Attorney Harper, stated that they would just be where they are now and that it
would be too late to call an election.
Councilmember McNaboe, clarified that if the Council moves forward with the
appointment process and they don't choose someone it will be too late to call a
special election.
City Attorney Harper, responded in the affirmative.
Councilmember Sandoval, feels that the Council needs to make a decision. You
can't make everyone happy. As long as people know that their convictions are to do
what is right they will understand.
City Manager Adams,stated that there are two options to do a mail ballot vote. One
would be May and one would be in August.
City Clerk Mesa, stated that the Council has to decide what they want to do within
30 days by law and that date is January 13, 2011. If they decide to do a mail ballot
in May the deadline is January 9, 2011.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, stated that she is proceeding with extreme caution.
Mayor Stanckiewitz, stated that they have been elected to make decisions and there
will always be people that don't like their decisions but feels they have a job to do.
The people elected the Council to make decisions and making no decision is telling
the community that the Council is not capable of making a decision.
Councilmember Sandoval,stated that the Council makes the best decisions that they
can with the information at hand and stick by them. He will not be able to make
everyone happy.
Mayor Pro Tern Garcia, asked the Council if their decision will be impacted by

Councimember Sandoval,stated that they need to make a decision based on who they
feel is the right person for the job.

opportunity to submit suggested questions as well. Council will need to determine the number of
questions each Council Member will ask and assign those questions. Because of the number of
applications received it is suggested that each interview be limited to 15 minutes or as agreed)

is requesting Council authorization to seek applications to fill the position. Methods of
notification would include a press release, posting on the City's website and Channel 3, and a
message on the City's electronic reader board. In addition, interested parties from previous
recruitments will be contacted and informed of the open process. Staff anticipates accepting
applications through February 9, 2011, and would then schedule applicant interviews with the
Council during their regular meeting of February 22, 2011 or March 8, 2011.
The selected applicant would be appointed, at the Council's discretion, to complete the term of
former Commissioner McNaboe, which expires on June 30, 2014.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There would be no fiscal impact associated with this action. The monthly stipend for the
Commissioners is $ 50.00 when at least one meeting is attended, and the City's budget includes
funding for the fifth Commissioner.
