They helped set everything up and managed people’s booths. She stated that if not for City staff, these types of events that serve the community would not happen. Mayor Pro Tem Rubalcava also highlighted a car show hosted by Impalas Orange County Car Club.

She recognized Anaheim Elementary School District Superintendent Dr. Christopher Downing for being awarded the Quantum 10 Courageous Leadership Award. Mayor Pro Tem Rubalcava addressed the potential conflict of interest that was mentioned during public comments related to her husband working for the City of Anaheim and being a member of IBEW.

Council Member Kurtz wished everyone Happy Holidays and thanked City staff for the work they do. Mayor Aitken shared that she had a meeting in Washington D.C. with Representative Young Kim who represents the eastern part of Anaheim. They spoke about partnering on fire initiatives and how to get 5 December 12, 2023 wild fire prevention resources to the Anaheim Fire Department. She also met with Congressman Lou Correa and noted it’s a pleasure working with him because of his dedication to the people of Anaheim. He secured a $980,000 grant for Anaheim’s Safe Routes to School Program. Mayor Aitken noted she participates in the annual National Walk to School Day because she is very passionate about making Anaheim streets safe for pedestrians and promotes a healthy lifestyle. She along with Congressman Correa attended the Anaheim Convention Center for the Families Together Program event which provided over 30,000 toys to communities in need. She stated she is proud that Anaheim was able to host it. Mayor Aitken thanked staff for attending the annual 7th floor employee open house and thanked all City employees who do the daily work to make the Anaheim lifestyle so rich. She wished everyone Happy Holidays. Council Member Faessel displayed photographs and noted he attended the playground build day at Peter Marshall Park. He shared that he received thank you cards from the kids at the event and a thank you bracelet from the Anaheim Ducks. He referenced a photograph of his friend Monica Robles who brought the Emprendedo@s Program to Anaheim and noted that Anaheim advocate Yesenia Rojas was part of the recent graduating class. The program allows individuals who have a vision to get started and teaches them how to run a small business. He attended the “Night For Others” gala hosted by The Salvation Army Orange County and Dr. Ben Hurst. Council Member Faessel shared that a gentleman paid $50,000 to shake special guest entertainer Howie Mandel’s wrist, not hand. He stated he, along with his Council Aides have been following the bookmobile through District 5, which has been delivering toys to the kids who follow the bookmobile. The bookmobile has made stops at Anna Drive, Canfield Neighborhood, and Rio Vista Park. Mayor Pro Tem Rubalcava mentioned that Council Member Meeks attended the playground build and was told by former Anaheim Ducks player Ryan Getzlaf that she was the hardest working person there. CITY MANAGER’S UPDATE: City Manager Vanderpool stated that the Brookhurst Corridor Study PowerPoint will be posted online as soon as possible. He shared that two new playgrounds were built for the Peter Marshall Park neighborhood. The playgrounds were designed by kids in the community and feature group swings, slides, spinners, climbing walls, zip line, musical sensory stations, and many more amenities that will offer more than 50 new play opportunities. Along with two new playgrounds, the park’s refresh also included new trees, shrubs, benches, and painted amenities. The west Anaheim playgrounds will officially open this week after the concrete sets and safety checks are complete. This build marks the 16th KABOOM! play space in the City. He thanked the Anaheim Ducks, KABOOM!, Boys & Girls Club, Peter Marshall Elementary School, and all the hundreds of incredible volunteers who joined to bring the community the gift of play. The City is bringing holiday cheer to neighborhoods with “Posadas en el Vecindario” or Celebrations in our Neighborhoods. The Mobile Family Resource Center is strolling through neighborhoods and spreading the joy of the holidays. The City partnered with Anaheim Fire and Rescue through their “Spark of Love” Toy Drive. Staff is making sure that toys donated through this drive get delivered to children in Anaheim. Unwrapped toy donations can be dropped off at any local fire station now through December 21. For the past eight weeks, two dozen Spanish-speaking entrepreneurs took part in a program to grow their young business ideas. The Emprendedo@s program teaches aspiring entrepreneurs what they need to know to build a business in this new economy. The latest class included a mom turning a lifetime of cooking into a catering business to support her family. A longtime gardener is using his passion to begin an environmentally friendly landscaping business. A former beauty queen is building on her pageant experience with a style startup that aims to build confidence in young women. This program is one way the City is helping immigrant, and first generation residents pursue the American Dream. So many with skills or a great idea may not know where to begin. Emprendedo@s students learned 6 December 12, 2023 marketing, permitting and licensing, and other ways to successfully run a business. Thanks to the Emprendedo@s Program and the City’s Economic Development team, the program has seen nearly 100 entrepreneurs go on to build successful businesses since starting in 2016. Hopefully this inspires others in the community, including those who might be operating on City streets today, to join in building businesses the right way with the support of the City. On behalf of the City of Anaheim, he congratulated all the participants. City Manager Vanderpool stated he looks forward to seeing businesses grow in Anaheim. He noted the program will be offered again next summer. City Manager Vanderpool stated that on behalf of the 3,000 plus City of Anaheim employees, it is a pleasure to serve the City Council, residents, businesses, and visitors and look forward to a safe 2023 holiday season and a vibrant successful 2024.
