PUBLIC HEARING
f �
6A. An Ordinance of the City of Grand Terrace Amending Chapter 9.28 of Title 9 of
Grand Terrace Municipal Code Regarding Procedures Regulating Graffiti
Assistant Ci , Manager Berry,stated that the City of Grand Terrace has placed a high priority
on eradicating graffiti in our neighborhoods, on public streets, in right-of-ways and in our
business district. City staff has been working closely with the County of San Bernardino
Sheriff's Department in cases involving graffiti crime and has seen a high success rate in the
past three months. Currently the City does not have a specific ordinance relating to graffiti.
Code enforcement uses our General Penalty that covers most all violations. With the
evolution of graffiti to include stickers, felt-tip pens, etching pens, etc. it was necessary to
add an ordinance specific to graffiti. It is staff s recommendation to adopt the ordinance.
Mayor Ferr6 opened the public hearing for discussion there being none she returned
discussion to the Council.
Councilmember Miller,thanked staff for coming up with the Ordinance. His only concern
is the fines on a property owner when they are not responsible for the graffiti and are hit
repeatedly.
Assistant City ManagerBegy, indicated that the fines that are included in the proposed
ordinance are already in the current code and are not being changed. They use the fines on
a case by case basis.
Senior Code Enforcement Officer Barrie Owens,staff has not had to fine any of the property
or business owners. Most people are cooperative and those who don't have the means or the
funds of removing the graffiti sign a waiver and the City goes onto the property and removed
or abated the graffiti. There are a few exceptions that staff are currently working on. The
proposed ordinance would not change anything. The property owners would still have the
ability to have the City remove or abate the graffiti.

recommendation to adopt the new street sweeping dates and zone designations.

City Council of the City of Grand Terrace, California, Amending Grand Terrace

6C. An Ordinance of the City of Grand Terrace, California, Amending Title 18, the
Grand Terrace Zoning Code by Adding Chapter 18.72,the Amateur("HAM")Radio
Antenna Ordinance (Zoning Amending No. 06-02)
John Lampe,City Planner,indicated this matter was continued from the meeting of February
12, 2008 to allow the City Attorney to review a letter from Leonard J. Shaffer, an attorney,
who provided a legal critique of the proposed "HAM" Radio Antenna Ordinance. City
Attorney prepared a response to Mr. Shaffer's critique where he listed legal precedent where
the Courts have upheld the denials of"HAM" radio antenna requests citing the Federal
Communication Commission rule known as PRB-1 and providing guidance as to how far
"HAM" facilities can be regulated. The City Attorney states that any "HAM" ordinance
must provide a"mechanism"based on a public hearing where the proposed conditions such
as those regarding height limitations "have reasonably accommodated the use and impose
the minimum practical regulation." Based on this conclusion, the City Attorney has
suggested that Section 18.72.070 of the proposed Ordinance be modified to provide for such
a hearing before the City Council. The modified Section 18.72.070 reads as follows:
Section 18.72.070 Reasonable Accommodation Hearing:
Any applicant may appeal the conditions imposed pursuant to this Chapter or
pursuant to Section 18.72.070E and shall be entitled to a hearing before the City
Council, who shall determine whether the conditions so imposed constitute
Council Minutes
March 11,2008
Page 5
"reasonable accommodation" and the "minimal practical regulation" required
pursuant to Government Code Section 65 850.3,as applied to the specific application.
The remainder of the "HAM" Ordinance remains the same as recommended by the City's
Planning Commission on January 18,2008. He indicated that it is the Planning Commission
and Staff s recommendation to approve and adopt the "Amateur, "HAM," Radio Antenna
Ordinance"under Z-06-02 together with the approval of the proposed Negative Declaration
under E-07-09.
Mayor Ferre opened the public hearing for discussion.
JoAnn Johnson, 12723 Mt. Vernon Avenue, she feels that the Council knows her well
enough to know two things about her. She is a regular in the audience,however,she doesn't
spend much time at the podium and appreciates the opportunity. She feels that the City is
taking a giant leap backwards. She has a feeling that this whole issue came up because of
one bad situation, and it was a bad situation. She can absolutely assure the Council that the
very large majority of Amateurs are very considerate with not only other amateurs but
certainly of their neighbors. Looking at specifics of the Ordinance,Chapter 18.72.010,she
fully agrees with the intent of the Ordinance. Chapter 17.72.040,item A,the 20 foot is very
unrealistic. She believes that each member of the Council received a picture of her antenna,
you would have to be looking for it to see it. In the pictures her antenna is about 30 to 31
feet high and would not be in compliance. It is about a foot or 18 inches higher than you can
see in the picture. It is a very minimal antenna. She is not sure that 30 to 35 feet would be
adequate but it would certainly be better. In part B the limit of one antenna is far too strict.
Chapter 17.72.070,she feels that the revision is an improvement. She feels that the Council
is putting an unnecessary on current and potential future amateurs. There are many instances
where amateur radio is a deciding factor in life and death situations but in all honesty is
mostly used for ordinary purposes like the telephone. Some of them participate in weekly
several weekly nets and can potentially be available in the event of a disaster. She asked the
Council to consider very carefully before making it so difficult for all of the amateurs
because of the actions of two. Sometimes the best action is no action at all. This maybe one
of those times.
Robert Stewart, 11677 Mt. Vernon Avenue, stated that the proposed Ordinance under its
definition does not address commercial buildings or other antennas other than HAM Radio
Antennas. He referred to other cities south and their height requirements. He feels that the
ordinance really needs to be looked at.
Bob Souter, 12045 Westwood Lane, indicated that he is a amateur radio operator and feels
that the antenna regulations are born out of conflict which was brought out by Mr. Lampe.
Grand Terrace has been functioning for years without any restricting antenna regulations.
Many houses had television antennas that were at least 50 feet high and they weren't a
Council Minutes
March 11,2008
Page 6
problem. He stated that "wouldn't it be nice to have a regulation that others could look to
as a model for reasonable accommodation instead of the conflicts of the past that resulted in
a time consuming expensive litigation for all parties involved."
James Gallocker, 723 Lytle Street,Redlands,he feels that it is good to have an ordinance in
place such as this,however,he feels the 20 foot antenna is not high enough. He pointed out
the antennas located at City Hall and different heights of them. He feels that it doesn't make
sense to have a light pole erected 30 feet but not a 30 foot antenna that in the event of an
emergency can indeed save lives. He doesn't believe that a 20 feet antenna would make it
to Redlands, however, he is certain that a 30 or 40 foot antenna would. Just a little
adjustment would make such a difference. He has been volunteering for Redlands Bicycle
Classic for over 15 years and currently works with San Bernardino County Superintendent
of Schools trying to help people there and volunteers at his local church and school. He feels
that HAM Radio Operators are desirable people that will step forward in the time of need.
He stated that the City has their own emergency operations committee, surely they see the
importance of this ordinance. He requested that the Council consider the height requirement
in the proposed ordinance.
Carl Gardenias,20902 Gardenias Street,Perris, CA,indicated that he first came to this area
in 1980 when he was stationed at Norton Air Force Base and continued to live in Highland "
for more than 20 years before he moved to Perris. He is a Amateur Radio Operator and a
volunteer who helps in time of need. His motivation is what happened to him when he lived
in South Dakota when 238 people lost their lives in one night. This is an experience that he
doesn't want to happen again. He has volunteered his time in the service of emergency
preparedness by helping others and promoting that hobby. He feels that they need the ability
to have equipment and people ready to perform during times of emergencies.
Marty Woll, 21301 Candice Place, Chatsworth, stated that he is one of those desirable
citizens described earlier. He is a 41 year amateur radio operator and an emergency
communication leader and instructor. He sees that the language was somewhat changed in
the proposed ordinance, unfortunately it was done without any input from amateur radio
operators, as far as he can tell. As you have heard earlier and as can be demonstrated if
needed,the height limitations,dimensional limitation and the percentage of aerial limitation
are all eronious and unworkable. The Ordinance as drafted reads more like a CC&R's of a
home owner association then it does an antenna ordinance that everyone finds workable such
as other surrounding cities have been able to do. The effect of all this is virtually every
amateur that wants to put up an antenna has to come before the City Council,which will use
a lot of their time and when and if their application is denied to exceed these limits they are
going to have to go to court and so will the City. He recommends that prior to adopting the
Ordinance they form a working group that includes local HAM's to develop a workable
ordinance which will provide something that everyone can live with. There are a number of
operators in the audience that are very capable and willing to work with the City to develop
Council Minutes

such a Ordinance.
Mayor Ferre closed the Public Hearing and returned discussion to the Council.
Councilmember Miller, questioned why the Planning Commission went from the 35 foot
height to the 20 foot height.
John Lampe,responded that it had to do with discussions with the Commission about height
limits for accessory structures. The accessory structure has a height limit of 20 feet. In
addition to that the instructions from the City Council,when they were directed to study the
antenna issue, was for the Commission to consider 20 feet. Staff had originally
recommended 35 feet,which is the height limit in the residential zones but the Commission
felt that it was too high and should be reduced to 20 feet.
Councilmember Miller, stated that one of the things he is concerned with is that the height
is not going to be sufficient to receive the higher frequencies that will be needed to be a
community that is health and safety conscious. He is thinking that maybe the adoption of
this ordinance is premature without more expertise. He is supportive of forming a group to
give input on a more workable ordinance for everyone.
i Mavor Pro Tem.Garcia, questioned if there are other structures that have a height limitation
on them in the City.
John Lampe,responded that accessory structures are restricted to 20 feet and he believes that
tv antenna are considered to be an accessory structure.
Community and Economic Development Director Gary Koontz, read the section of the
zoning code pertaining to accessory structures and the section pertaining to exceptions.
Mayor Pro Tem Garcia, stated that she is supportive of forming a focus group with HAM
radio operators to come up with something that works for everyone.
Mayor Ferre,questioned if staff received input from HAM Radio operators in Grand Terrace
when drafting the ordinance.
John Lampe,responded in the negative. He had some informal discussions with HAM radio
operators and JoAnn Johnson did express her concern about the proposed height limit at the
Planning Commission Public Hearing.
Mayor Ferre, questioned if the information received was from workshops.
John Lampe,responded that discussions were held by the Planning Commission and various
Council Minutes
March 11,2008
Page 8
ordinances were cited from Southern California. There was no one at the workshop that
stood up and said that they were a HAM radio operator.
Mayor Ferr6,questioned if it would be feasible to take this ordinance and receive input from
local HAM radio operators and to bring it back to Council.

ORDINANCE NO.
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF GRAND TERRACE
AMENDING CHAPTER 9.28 OF TITLE 9 OF GRAND
TERRACE MUNICIPAL CODE REGARDING PROCEDURES
REGULATING GRAFFITI.
SECTION 1: Chapter 9.28 ("Graffiti") of the Grand Terrace Municipal Code is hereby
amended to read as follows:
9.28.010—Purpose and Intent
The City Council finds and declares as follows:
A. Graffiti on public or private property is a condition of blight that not only
depreciates the value of property which has been the target of such vandalism, but also
depreciates the value of the adjacent and surrounding properties so as to create a negative impact
upon the entire community.
B. Graffiti has also been found to be associated with criminal activity and
delinquency. It is also a means of identification and intimidation utilized by gangs and its
presence may further gang-related activities. The power of graffiti to create fear within the
community and blight upon the landscape, devaluing property and detracting from a sense of
community enjoyed by the residents of the City of Grand Terrace goes beyond the cost of clean-
up or removal. Not only is graffiti a criminal act of vandalism, but it is also a social crime upon
the quality of life and freedom from intimidation that citizens desire in their neighborhoods.
C. California Government Code Section 38771 authorizes the City to declare what
constitutes a nuisance. Section 53069.3 further authorizes the City, under certain circumstances,
to provide for the removal of graffiti and other inscribed materials from private as well as public
property. The Council finds and determines that graffiti is obnoxious and a public nuisance and
unless the City causes it to be removed from public and private property, it tends to remain.
Other properties then become the target of graffiti with the result that the entire neighborhood is
affected and becomes a less desirable place in which to live, work or visit.
D. In the past, the City of Grand Terrace has appropriated funds for the removal of
graffiti from privately owned real or personal property located within the City. While this public
service benefits the entire community, it provides no incentive to private property owners to deal
directly with the problem and to formulate their own ideas, solutions, and mitigation measures to
avoid being victimized time and time again. The perpetual provision of free graffiti removal
services is not an effective deterrent to the escalation of graffiti vandalism and is not a cost
effective use of public funds.
E. It is the purpose and intent of the City Council of Grand Terrace, through the
adoption of this Chapter, to provide additional enforcement tools to protect public and private
property from acts of vandalism and defacement, including the application of graffiti on public
and private property, walls, vehicles, and other structures. Such acts are destructive of the rights
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. -
and values of private property owners as well as the entire community. It is the further intent of
the City Council, through the adoption of this Chapter, to provide to all of those who disregard
the property rights of others, that the law enforcement agency of the City, Sheriff's Department,
District Attorney's Office, and City Attorney/Prosecutor's Office, will strictly enforce the law
and vigorously prosecute those persons engaging in the defacement of public or private
properties.

9.28.090—Removal of Graffiti
A. Declaration of Nuisance. Pursuant to California Government Code section 38771,

B. Abatement of Nuisance. Pursuant to Government Code Section 38773, the City
Council hereby establishes a procedure for the summary statement of the nuisance described in
Section 9.28.090A. Furthermore, the City Council authorizes the appropriation and use of public

personal property located within the City and to repair or replace publicly or privately owned
property within the City that has been defaced with graffiti or other inscribed material that
cannot be removed cost effectively, or to otherwise abate graffiti attracting surfaces as defined
hereinabove.
1. General. Any person applying graffiti within the City shall have the duty
to remove same in a manner approved by the City within twenty-four hours after notice by the
City or the public or private owner of the property involved. Failure of any person to so remove
graffiti shall constitute an additional violation of this chapter. Consistent with Civil Code
Section 1713.1, where graffiti is applied by minors, the parent or guardian shall be responsible
for such removal or payment for the cost thereof.
2. Public Property. Subject to the provisions of subsection 1 of this section,
whenever the City Manager or his/her designated representative determines that graffiti exists
upon property owned by the City, it shall be removed within twenty-four (24) hours after it is
observed by the City staff. When property is owned by a public entity other than the City, the
removal of the graffiti may be authorized by the City Manager or his/her representative, and
removal/abatement undertaken by City personnel or independent contractor, only after securing
written consent of the public entity having jurisdiction over the property.
3. Private Property.
a. Duty to Remove. It is every property owner's duty to remove
graffiti promptly from his/her property. Where graffiti is located upon private property, and is
capable of being viewed by persons utilizing any public right-of-way or sidewalk within the
City, the City shall cause a written notice to be served upon the owner of the affected premises
requesting the removal of that graffiti. Unless the property owner provides specific written
consent authorizing the City or its contractor abate the graffiti, the property owner shall have
twenty-four (24) hours after the date of the City's notice to remove the graffiti. Failure to
remove or authorize City removal as specified shall be a violation for each day the graffiti is not
removed and deemed to authorize the City's removal pursuant to court order and assessment of
costs of such removal as a lien on the subject property.
b. Notice of Abatement. The notice shall be addressed to the name
and address as appears on the last tax assessment roll, by depositing a copy of the notice in the
U.S. mail, with postage fully pre-paid, or personally delivering a copy of the notice to owner.

The service is complete at the time of such deposit in the mail or when personal service is
effectuated. The failure of any person to receive such notice shall not affect the validity of any
proceeding.
C. Authorization to Enter. Hold Harmless. Prior to the entry onto
private property by City personnel or authorized contractor for purposes of graffiti removal, a
specified and signed written consent form shall be obtained from the private property owner or
designated agent for such authorization of entry and release of liability. After written consent is
received, City personnel or authorized contractor shall remove the graffiti within twenty-four
(24) hours.
d. Authorization to Enter. Court Order. If a specified and signed
written consent to enter upon private property is not obtained from or is refused by the property
owner or designated agent, the City may enter upon the property to abate the nuisance pursuant
to a court order obtained from a San Bernardino County Superior Court judge. After the court
order is received, City personnel or authorized contractor shall remove the graffiti within twenty-
four(24)hours.
e. Enforcement. Enforcement by way of criminal prosecution is an
additional remedy to other abatement and enforcement procedures available to the City.
C. Scope of Abatement. Notwithstanding the provisions of Chapter 8.28 of this
Code, the use of public funds for the removal of graffiti or the painting or repairing of surfaces
containing graffiti, shall not be used to provide for the painting or repairing of any more
extensive area than that where the graffiti is located unless the City Manager, or his designee,
determines in writing that a more extensive area is required to be repainted or repaired in order to
avoid aesthetic disfigurement to the neighborhood or community, or unless a responsible party
agrees in writing to pay for the costs of repainting or repairing the more extensive area.
D. Appeal of Notice of Abatement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Code, any appeal of a Notice of Abatement as it relates to the conditions referenced in section
9.28.090(A) must be filed within four (4) calendar days from the date of the Notice of
Abatement. Failure of the City Clerk to receive a timely notice of appeal constitutes a waiver of
the right to contest a Notice of Abatement. In this event, the Notice of Abatement is final and
binding. All appeals under this Chapter shall be heard as follows:
1. The hearing to determine whether a nuisance as described in
Section 9.28.090A exist shall be conducted by the city manager or his duly authorized designee

7
a reasonable period of time as set forth in said notice. The determination of the hearing officer
shall be final and conclusive.

the owner of the property by United States mail or by personal delivery together with a detailed
list of needed corrections or abatement methods. In addition, a copy of the order shall be posted

was relevant and directly responsible for the arrest and conviction of the suspect.
D. Any person committing graffiti vandalism, and if said person is an unemancipated
minor, then the parent or lawful guardian of said minor, shall be civilly liable for any reward
paid pursuant to this section.
9.28.120—Parental Responsibility

guardian of said minor shall also be civilly liable for any reward paid pursuant to section

B. Whenever deemed appropriate, it is the City's intent to collect abatement and
related administrative costs incurred in the summary abatement of any nuisance resulting from
the defacement by a minor or other person of the property of another by graffiti or any other
inscribed material. Notice shall be given to the minor or other persons prior to the recordation of
a lien on the parcel of land owned by the minor or other person and to the parent or guardian
9
having custody and control of the minor prior to the recordation of a lien on the parcel of land
owned by the parent or guardian having custody and control of the minor.
The notice shall be served in the same manner as a summons in a civil action pursuant to
Article 3 (commencing with Section 415.10) of Chapter 4 of Title 5 of Part 2 of the Code of
Civil Procedure. If the minor or other person, after diligent search, cannot be found, the notice
may be served by posting a copy of the notice upon the property owned by the minor or other
person, in a conspicuous place, for a period of 10 days. The notice shall also be published
pursuant to Section 6062 in a newspaper of general circulation that is published in the county in
which the property is located. If the parent or guardian having custody and control of the minor,
after diligent search, cannot be found, the notice may be served by posting a copy of the notice
upon the property owned by the parent or guardian having custody and control of the minor, in a
conspicuous place, for a period of 10 days. The notice shall also be published pursuant to
Section 6062 in a newspaper of general circulation that is published in the county in which the
property is located.
A graffiti nuisance abatement lien shall be recorded in the office of the Recorder of San
Bernardino. From the date of recording, the lien shall have the force, effect, and priority of a
judgment lien.
A graffiti nuisance abatement lien authorized by this section shall specify the amount of
the lien; the name of the agency on whose behalf the lien is imposed; the date of the abatement
order; the street address, legal description, and assessor's parcel number of the parcel on which
the lien is imposed; and the name and address of the recorded owner of the parcel.

costs of repair and replacement of defaced property, and the law enforcement costs incurred by
the City, County, or City and County in identifying and apprehending the minor or other person.
C. As an alternative to the procedure specified in Section 9.28.120B whenever
deemed appropriate, it is the City's intent to make the costs and related administrative costs of
the abatement of any nuisance described in Section 9.28.090A resulting from the defacement by
a minor or other person of property of another by graffiti or other inscribed material, a special
assessment against a parcel of land owned by the minor or other person or by the parent or
guardian having custody and control of the minor. The assessment may be collected at the same
time and in the same manner as ordinary municipal taxes are collected and shall be subject to the
same penalties and the same procedure and sale in case of delinquency as provided for ordinary
municipal taxes. All laws applicable to the levy, collection, and enforcement of municipal taxes
10
shall be applicable to the special assessment. However, if any real property to which the
abatement and related administrative costs relate has been transferred or conveyed to a bona fide
purchaser for value, or if a lien of a bona fide encumbrancer for value has been created and
attaches thereon prior to, the date on which the first installment of the taxes would become
delinquent, then the abatement and related administrative costs shall not result in a lien against
the real property but shall instead by transferred to the unsecured roll for collection. Notices or
instruments relating to the abatement proceeding or special assessment may be recorded.

record of the parcel of land on which the nuisance is maintained, based on the last equalized
assessment roll or the supplemental roll, whichever is more current.

action in accordance with Article 3 (commencing with Section 415.10) of Chapter 4 of Title 5 of
Part 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure. If the owner of record, after diligent search cannot be
found, the notice may be served by posting a copy thereof in a conspicuous place upon the

published in the county in which the property is located pursuant to Section 6062.
3. A nuisance abatement lien shall be recorded in the County Recorder's
Office in San Bernardino and from the date of recording shall have the force, effect and priority
of a judgment lien.
a. A nuisance abatement lien authorized by this section shall specify
