Attached Closed Session Comment for April 7, 2020 council meeting.
City of Anaheim withholding police criminal killings info.
Anaheim City Council Closed Session Comments, April 7, 2020,
VIA EMAIL TO:. ubliccomment (i. anaheim,net
FROM Home owners Maintaining our Environment
.,4,;
The purpose of Closed Session Comments is to inform the public of serious
matters such as Anaheim Police criminal conduct. Itis understood that the
council discussions on such matters are to be secret. However, to keep secret the
incidents of police criminal actions from the public is wrong.
The closed session calendar has five items on it. Four of the items are kept
p
completely secret from the public. The American Public has the rights to know
the subjects (not the discussions), so they could research the matter and give
constructive comments to the council. That is the American way and is not the
procedure in other countries that have limited transparency for their citizens.
The only closed session item that included basic information was the brutal
murder by Anaheim police officers of an innocent Latino young man, Vincent
Valenzuela. According to the video, without warning, the Latino, who was
washing his clothes at a Laundromat, was beaten then strangled from an illegal
chokehold by the Anaheim police officers. The courts awarded the deceased
man's family $13.2 million, which the residents of Anaheim must now pay.
It is believed one of the other four closed session items that are Dept hidden
from the public was the Caucasian Anaheim police officer killing of a young
Negro man just before last Christmas. According to the video, the 11uppity"
Negro was standing two feet with his back turned in front of the Caucasian
Anaheim police officer when he was shot four times in the back.
Of interest could be the Freedom of Speech violations by the Anaheim City
Council in censoring Closed Session Public Comments. They are not included in
the official video or audio recordings of the council meeting, in the "action"
minutes of the meeting, or in the meetings' repeated cable TV broadcasts.

Comments for the meeting
Hi my name is Pedro Garcia i am a concerned citizen of Anaheim in district 5. My concern is with the 6.5 million dollars
being used to fund visit Anaheim when it appears we will not be having that area even be open due to this crises. Even
more so it seems completely inappropriate to not have it be closely monitored. With so many of us out of work. What
is the city doing for the unemployed?

Clear violations of Free Speech to prevent public comments at Anaheim Council Meetings.
Anaheim City Council Comments, April 7, 2020, Agenda Items
VIA EMAIL TO. i bliccomment{_= anaheim.net
FROM: Home Owners Maintaining our Environment.
The current agenda for this council meeting has been inaccessible on the
internet to the public. The City of Anaheim is now requiring an unavailable
authorization code (see the attached unauthorized 401.2 notice). Past meeting
agendas were available while the current agenda and staff reports were not.
A demand for rehearing on the Anaheim Dills non -conforming Serrano
residential project is to be scheduled at this current meeting agenda. The
developer has threatened an expensive lawsuit to be paid by the residence of
Anaheim (and not council members). Grounds for the lawsuit are serious
misconduct by Council Member Trevor O'Neil and the facts that such
horrible projects have routinely been permitted in Latino areas of Anaheim
(Pauline Street) but not in the white Anaheim Hills areas. The rehearing must
be allowed to prevent the unnecessary legal costs to the City of Anaheim.
In the to be agendaize Virus discussion item, Anaheim City Council
members being led by their Mayor Hari sh S. Sidue has lowered themselves
again by exploiting the National virus Emergency. They are preventing
public participation by not allowing verbal comments at their meetings.
The ruling of "to male public meetings accessible telephonically or
otherwise' requires comments to be made "telephonic," which is by voice.
Mayor Harish S. Sidue and his cabal on the city council have
maliciously interpreted the rule to mean only in writing, not telephonic.
As a bare minimum, the city council should have a clerk read the
submitted written public comments during the public comments periods at
the council meetings.
Attached to this public comment are three pages of evidential
documents to be handed out to each council member by the City Clerk.

Subject: Item #17 Council Agenda April 7th -request for rehearing
Dear City Clerk,
Please send my email to the Mayor and all Council members.
Also please confirm receipt.
I request that the Council deny the developer's request for rehearing for all the reasons the Council restored the
Neighborhood Center on March 1 oth.
See my earlier email below.
Thanks,

Dear City Clerk,
Please confirm receipt of this email and send it to the Mayor and all Council members.
I urge the City Council to repeal General Plan Amendment No. 2017-00515 and rescind Resolution No. 2020-012 to
restore the Serrano Center as a Neighborhood Center. Also, to deny the Request for Rehearing filed by the
developer.
The Zoning Reclassification ordinance was properly rejected by the Council on February I Ith. Thank you. But in
order to restore the Serrano Center back to a Neighborhood Center the General Plan also needs to be put back to
where it was to begin with.
The Council heard from many residents in the surrounding neighborhoods regarding all their objections to this
proposed project including evidence that the Serrano Center is a viable commercial center that contains many
children -based businesses including a dance school, swim school, daycare center and martial arts academy that serve
the surrounding neighborhoods. These businesses provides vital after school activities for children including those
from the adjoining Anaheim Hills Elementary School.
The adverse impacts on views, air and light to neighboring properties caused by the 3 story condo buildings which
are incompatible with the surrounding 2 story neighborhoods and inconsistent with the General Plan. The General
Plan discourages development of muti-family developments in existing single-family neighborhoods.
The lot is too small (3 acres) for 54 units when 5 acres are required by the Scenic Corridor. Further, to allow
buildings to face Serrano Ave. from only 14 feet away from the street is dangerous when a 54 foot setback is
required. A car will end up in someone's living room if this is built.
The project is too dense and all exits onto Nohl Ranch Road are right only forcing those wanting to head back to the
91 Freeway to make a right onto Carnegie Ave, right on Calle Venado and attempt to make a dangerous left turn
onto Serrano Ave. This is a blind curve and the City recently put up a flashing yellow sign to alert drivers of exiting
vehicles.
Please put an end to this project.
Sincerely,
Moses Johnson

Subject: Stop Deployment of Wireless during Quarantine
Dear Ms. Bass,
Dear Mayor & City Council Member,
We ask that you impose a moratorium on "small cells" and other wireless infrastructure permits process and
deployment until the CDVID-19 emergency is over.
The wireless providers are using the CDVID-19 emergency as cover to expand and cement their rapid and
virtually unsupervised deployment of harmful wireless infrastructure. Our local leaders should not have to
dedicate time and resources to policing Whether the wireless companies are following local and state law, they
have far more important things to do.
The FCC wireless permit rules allow emergency moratoria. Homeland Security guidelines emphasize that
maintenance of existing communications capability is the priority. New construction is not "essential."
The CDVID-19 emergency has led to a government shut down of non-essential activity. Hospitals, emergency
response and local officials are overwhelmed and they must be allowed to focus on what is indeed "essential".
Now is not the time to be dedicating resources to expanding, rather than just maintaining, our networks.
The FCC has directly held a local jurisdiction can impose a temporary halt to deployment and permits during
emergencies. In the Matter of Accelerating wireline Broadband Deployment by Removing Barriers, FCC 18-
111, 33 FCC Rcd 7705, 7784-7785, ¶157 (2018) ('we recognize that there may be limited situations in the case
of a natural disaster or other comparable emergency where an express or de facto moratoria that violates section
253(a) may nonetheless be `necessary' to `protect the public safety and welfare' or to `ensure the continued
quality of telecommunications services."')
Homeland Security has declared that local government is on the forefront and can take control over determining
whether to temporarily halt all non-essential activity. Homeland Security guidance documents prioritize
maintenance of existing Communications Systems, and do not support "essential" status for new construction.
See Homeland Security Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency, Identifying Critical Infrastructure

understands that it is essential in an emergency situations justify focusing on protecting, responding, recovering
and restoring of existing systems, but new communications facilities construction is and should be deemed
nonessential, and subject to lockdown for so long as we are under emergency conditions.
Cities can and should impose a moratorium on deployment in their local area and freeze the permit process until
the COVED -19 emergency is over.

Good Morning Ms. Gentil,
Thank you for your email below. Councilmember Barnes and the City Manager have asked me to look into this issue and
respond on their behalf. While we understand your very valid concerns, the state of California has defined the
communications sector as part of the Essential Jobs in the Governor's executive order on COVID-19. I reviewed the link
to the defined essential jobs and found multiple sections that do include the installation of new communication facilities
as critical.
The safety of the public and our employees is our top priority. If the communication companies at their own will choose
to continue work at this time, we do ensure they perform their work in a safe manner for our community and the city
inspectors that are overseeing the work. elle look for proper detours for pedestrians, traffic control, social distancing
and proper use of personal protective equipment.
I think we have all experienced the impact the stay home order has had our wireless communication system. I have
certainly experienced a change in signal quality on my mobile devices with more people at home using wireless
communication to Work and stay in touch with friends and family. It is Vital that we continue to improve our
communication infrastructure. If you have any other questions, please give me a call at 714-765-5065.

Dear The Honorable Sidhu,
Dear Mayor & City Council Member,
We ask that you impose a moratorium on "small cells" and other wireless infrastructure permits process and
deployment until the CDVID-19 emergency is over.
The wireless providers are using the CDVID-19 emergency as cover to expand and cement their rapid and
virtually unsupervised deployment of harmful wireless infrastructure. Our local leaders should not have to
dedicate time and resources to policing whether the wireless companies are following local and state law, they
have far more important things to do.
The FCC wireless permit rules allow emergency moratoria. Homeland Security guidelines emphasize that
maintenance of existing communications capability is the priority. New construction is not "essential."
The CDVID-19 emergency has led to a government shut down of non-essential activity. Hospitals, emergency
response and local officials are overwhelmed and they must be allowed to focus on what is indeed "essential".
Now is not the time to be dedicating resources to expanding, rather than just maintaining, our networks.
The FCC has directly held a local jurisdiction can impose a temporary halt to deployment and permits during
emergencies. In the Matter of Accelerating wireline Broadband Deployment by Removing Barriers, FCC 18-
111, 33 FCC Rcd 7705, 7784-7785, ¶157 (2 018) ("we recognize that there may be limited situations in the case
of a natural disaster or other comparable emergency where an express or de facto moratoria that violates section
253(a) may nonetheless be `necessary' to `protect the public safety and welfare' or to `ensure the continued
quality of telecommunications services."')
Homeland Security has declared that local government is on the forefront and can take control over determining
whether to temporarily halt all non-essential activity. Homeland Security guidance documents prioritize
maintenance of existing Communications Systems, and do not support "essential" status for new construction.
See Homeland Security Cybers ecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency, Identifying Critical Infrastructure
During COVID-19, ht p s //www. cisa..ov/identi f`v i n� -critical-infrastructure-during-covid-19 local control); e -
Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources Support Annex, httil://www.fema.,-,ov/pdf/emergencs,/nrf/nrfmsui-ii)ortm
cikr. df (focus on "protection, response, recovery, and restoration"). Homeland Security, life the FCC,
understands that it is essential in an emergency situations justify focusing on protecting, responding, recovering
and restoring of existing systems, but new communications facilities construction is and should be deemed
nonessential, and subject to lockdown for so long as we are under emergency conditions.
Cities can and should impose a moratorium on deployment in their local area and freeze the permit process until
the COVID-19 emergency is over.
Sincerely,
Pntipnne TTancnc;k

Subject: TCA - Toll Roads
Good evening City Council
I am writing to you today to ask for your support in reducing a significant tax on all Orange County residents that often times
goes unnoticed. Are you aware that the Transportation Corridor Agency (The "TCA") has taxed OC homeowners to the tune of
$706,334,000.00 million since the Agency was established in 1987. This tax comes in the form of Development Fees that are
assessed on new residential and commercial properties developed within Orange County.
The TCA was formed in 1987 with the explicit purpose of constructing the 73, 241 and 261 Toll Roads. At the time that the
TCA was established bonds were issued to pay for construction of these new Toll Roads. The promise made by the TCA at the
time was that the debt taken on by the TCA for construction of these new Toll Roads would be pard off through a combination
of Development Fees and Tolls collected on the roads by drivers who use the roads. 100% of the debt was to be pard off within
20 years and the Toll Roads were supposed to become Freeways like the rest of the Interstate Highways within our great State
of California. As it turns out the TCA has horribly mismanaged their role and has squandered these silent taxes paid for by
your constituents. Not only are the 73, 241 and 261 still Toll Roads and not Freeways, but the TCA is still over $4.7 BILLION
in debt for construction of these roads — years after the roads were supposed to become free. This is a dereliction of duty and a
travesty for Orange County Taxpayers. By the time the bonds are repaid it will cost 11. Billion dollars - the debt is going in the
WRONG direction.
The TCA recently released a draft a vision Flan - where they are trying to do other things than just pay down the existing bonds
and get involved outside thier lane. It is time to cut the head of the snake and have teh TCA solely focus on paying down the
bonds, instead of driving up housing and the cost of business in our County with these empty toll roads.
Thankfully, the agency CEO who drive up more debt and refinanced the bonds more than a zero dow home in the inland empire
will be leaving - its time to get this agencies spending in check and have them focus on real mobility which is paying down the
bonds so the congestion free toll roads can be open for all drivers.
Thank you

Dear City Council Members and Public Comment Record,
In preparation for your Tuesday 7 April meetings I am providing two charts showing an economic analysis of
the Transportation Corridor Agency Toll Roads project. The chart data comes from the 2013 TCA Bond Issue
document (464 pages), the economic analysis considers the life of each bond issue and maturity in that package
from 1995 to 2053. The analysis computes the equivalent annualized amount for every bond, revenue, and
expense recorded in that document both present and projected:
• Bonds Series 1995, 1999, 2013ABC
• Bond Debt Service
• Developer Impact Fees
• operating Expenses
• Toll Fee Revenue
The first chart shows the total anticipated revenue to cover the actual bond debt service and anticipated
expenses for all the bonds.

are suspect notwithstanding the COVID-19 impact and higher toll rates on total toll revenues, if you believe this

there is no need for this redundant wasteful agency. Tax payers deserve better.
The TCA sends Hundreds of Millions of Dollars outside of our state on vendor contracts, if they want Grange County Tax
payers to be able to afford the ever increasing tolls they need to be more mindful and keep the money in California.
Thank you for your time and please do something to stop the hemorrhage to tax payers in our county with these economically
discriminating toll roads.

Subject: TCA: embarrassment under cover of authority
TCA's apparent retreat to "Option 22" and the retirement of their overpaid CEO suggest the agency is facing the reality
of its chronic failures. From the outset TCA failed
to draft a realistic business plan
to understand the wants and financial means of its target market
to budget responsibly
to manage its internal conflicts
to live up to its founding mission.
Its Board Members have consistently failed
to behave like fiscally responsible civic leaders
to tell the truth to Orange County taxpayers.
Through orchestrated mission creep TCA has morphed over the years. It's one success has been as cash cow for the
OCGOP through direct contributions from its myriad vendors, consultants, and contractors.
When the spotlight finally shines on TCA and its board members own up to this boondoggle the blemish on Orange
County's reputation will rival that of our infamous bankruptcy, our county equivalent to High Speed Rail.

As we go through this brave new world of rules and restrictions for public safety, I want to complement the staff and services of the
City of Anaheim. Be grateful that we all have police, fire, community service, public utilities and neighborhood services working as
hard as they can. The lights are on, the water is running and the street services are still being kept up beautifully. In my experience,
Anaheim Anytime has been 100% up to their high standards of quickly resolving issues. Our public library has set a platinum standard
for the nation of the creative ways our library still can serve those in need of entertainment and a great book or video. Our hard
working nonprofits like the Anaheim Family YMCA and Boys and Girls Club are ensuring that children are fed through our fabulous
Anaheim Community Foundation and a lot of caring.
Our entire city team is to be commended wholeheartedly. We should not take for granted that what we expect to be normally done
takes an extraordinary amount of commitment to get done during challenging times.

mouth. we know asymptomatic can also spread the virus, I think it would help slow down the spread along with
the measures already placed. I thank you for all the hard work you.
Anaheim, Resident

Honorable Mayor Harry Sidhu, Anaheim Council Members and City Staff,
Although i no longer live in the city of Anaheim my heart will always be there. I applaud our city leaders and staff for
great leadership and guidance going through what will surely be known as one of the most difficult times in our
country's history.
We are thankful for the swift decisions that you have made to protect the population and ensure that even our most
impacted families in our community will continue to receive services. Although at the present time the Boys & Girls
Clubs are not able to serve children we are currently running grab and go food distributions three days a week. In our
first two weeks we reached 400 families touching close to 2000 individuals delivering precooked meals, canned goods,
nonperishable food items and over 3000 pounds of pasta. We have collaborated with The Raise Foundation, Caterinafs
Club and Influence Church. They have all provided food and meals to families that need our help now more than ever.
I am happy to inform you that the on July 1, 2020 the Main Clubhouse in Anaheim at Manzanita Park will officially
become an accredited Family Resource Center bringing more organizations together providing greater services in the
92501 and surrounding neighborhoods.
Thank you for keeping our community safe and providing the resources to The Boys & Girls Clubs of Anaheim assuring
we can continue offering high quality programs to our children and their families.
Sincerely,
John Machiaverna
CEO
The Boys Girls Clubs of Greater Anaheim -Cypress

Could we request to freeze rent increase for residents in Anaheim at least for a year similar to Las Angeles?

time to abolish TCA - NOW!
Dear Council,
I'm a San Clemente resident.
OC resident for 22 -years.
For 22 -years we've all experienced the ineptitude of TCA. Their swelling indebtedness. Their lies.
Their folly, as a so-called transportation -reducer, when in fact, TCA's 51 -miles of toll roads literally brought freeway
congestion to OC, as the venue for accessing open space for south county's master planned development.
More development = More traffic.
Ironically, TCA limits its ridership through Congestion Pricing?
When commuters need traffic relief the most, during peak hours, TCA shuts the door.
What relief?
The 73 toll road has failed financially from Day -1.
This is fact, no matter how TCA cooks their books.
The 241, is less of a failure, only because TCA rejiggered their books, recognizing the 73's financial -success -over -promise
would never happen, so, TCA lowered the financial bar for the 241.
Hence, the 241 became TCA's poster child for success.
Basically, just more scarp bookkeeping at TCA.
Today, TCA has given -up on their 2 -decade dream / folly of a 241 -South Extension, from Oso Parkway south, DIRECTLY
th rough ...San Clemente?
Literally, through the middle of San Clemente.
Down San Clemente"s throat.
Does any rational citizen, from any city in OC, or any city, anywhere in the world, think; paving an underperforming toll
road, through the middle of anyone's town, is rational?
No.
It's absurd.
It's abusive.
It's stupid.
Basically, TCA is crazy.
Yet for 2 -decades, TCA has threatened, bullied, panicked, tormented San Clemente's citizenry through TCA's blind, non-
stop arrogance.
TCA should be immediately terminated.
Its Headquarter doors bolted shut, turning TCA's scant remaining services over to OCTA.
There is no reason, for TCA going forward.
None.
And I haven't even mentioned TCA's elephant in the room: its out of control, ballooning debt load, to the 10's of Billions
and growing exponentially.
Abolish TCA Now.
End the madness.
Bring sanity back to OC's traffic relief dilemma by Abolishing TCA Now, putting OC traffic solutions into the hands of
experts.
Not TCA.
Abolishing TCA is decades overdue.
Do it now, for the good of OC.
Thank you,
Jerry Collamer

Given honor to God and all of the members of the council that are serving God,
Our world, our nation, are going through very uncertain times where the results are crucial and
uncertain times. We will get through this crisis because we trust in God ,we trust not trusting in our federal or
local government.
Again our city council has shown how there is no limit to the corruption this mayor and his merry people
will commit. This Mayor never missed an opportunity to keep on robbing the residents of Anaheim even in a
time of crisis. So because of this I am giving the mayor the name of "Harry robbing the hood" along with his
band of merry men and "little John " is Faessel, with Iring, O'Neil, and Brandon. They will do whatever this
mayor want or tell them to do, just like when the mayor on a hot mic when they thought it was off telling
Faessel how to vote. That right Council Faessel lost a lot of respect from the people of people who learn about
this telling sign that Faessel is bought and pay for. For the money and not the residents.
They have done it again last week when the Newsome from the state send our taxes money to help
with this corona emergency. Out of 15 million dollars he and his merry men gave another private RESORT
company 6.5 million to hold on to until this corona situation is over.
While the convention center employees go unpay along with the employees of hotels that are part of
the resort community that don't belong to Disney. 6 Y2 million to a company that fought measure L the living
wage against putting money into employees hands for them and theirs childrens. That in the past i believe
even contribute to the campaigns of some of the present city council.
What was the big HURRY Harry that only after 15 hours you call a emergency meeting to hurry and
wait. That couldn't wait for the regular meeting 5 days later to discuss what should be done and given the
council less than 1 day to read. Corrupution at it best is quick and fast before people and this company does
nothing really for the residents but the Resort community of Disney that paid 52.4 billion in 2017 for Fox.
Next he will give SOAR 10 million because they are going broke also without normal stream of Disney
money,
Residents pay attention because maybe because we don't pay attention this is happening.
We are going through a world problem and is HOMELESSNESS a world problem and don't you think
when they cry out to God he tell them revenges are mine.
Sports people we trusted that ours people in government where doing the right thing and now we find
they only were pretending to be handling the problem.
The mayor gave 250 thousands to Anaheim first his private non profit of chamber of congress,
Next he gove the chamber of congress 450 thousands dollars.
Next he gave the police union president a 17 % raise paid for by the residents of Anaheim which nearly
cost about 400 thousands and now he giving visit Anaheim 6 1/2 million.

Subject: Public Comments for April 7th,20205pm
Mayor Sidhu and Council Memebrs,
My name is Annemarie Randle-Trejo school board trustee for the Anaheim Union High School District.
First and foremost while I am grateful for the opportunity to post remarks to all of you I find it difficult This
method t is unable to truly relay or emote a true essence of the message from constituents.
Communication is always key and while we may not like some remarks from citizens it is their right to address
the council.
I urge you all to allow the public to call in or at the very least have the clerk read the comments. This would add
transparency and allow those listening in to hear and understand public views. Please consider these
alternatives.
It was my understanding at the last council meeting many constituents Were very concerned or skeptical of the
6,5 million that was earmarked for advertising. while we are all understanding that sacrifices and hard
decisions have to be made to aide the community. Many do not understand or think it appropriate (including
me) at this time to pay money to advertise. I gave you my remarks for the prior meeting and feel all of those
communications from the prior meeting should be posted as well.. Many people in the community are
struggling and are waiting in line for food. I think you can draw the parallel.
I would also like to say that the efforts of the Anaheim Union High School district to feed our families has been
on going and steadfast. We have some days given out over 11,000 meals per day. We have several sites across
the city and our food service employees are our heroes as well.
I also need to point out the efforts of the AUHSD . we've been promoting the CENSUS 2020 since last year. I
am pleased to hear that the city numbers are promising and would life to acknowledge and thank the hard work
of our AUHSD staff and community partners. If we all work together we can receive the needed dollars and
services for the entire Anaheim community.
Thank you

Thank you so much for your time in helping to relieve our fears during this horrid time.. I've just heard on the
radio that O.C. has just ordered 10,000 masks..Will a percentage of these be allotted for residents who are at
risk, who reside here, otherwise on social security an dissability?? I believe even two a month would be
beneficial for seniors as they could get most of their errands done in those two days they would have their
masks..giving them out at the grocery stores they shop would be a win win situation for both the protection of
the person an the store..if we are to help our medical people than we must keep people healthy..we who cannot
afford shopping on line an delivery, MUST go out, especially if we live alone as I do, whereby the grocery
store ... it's the only place I absolutely have to go to... Please think on this and let me know how this will be
handled so I may reassure those around..thank you again for your time an effort on helping this city through
what I believe is it's worst time in history..bless you all Brenda Visconti
