COUNCIL COMMUNICATIONS:
Mayor Pro Tem Kurtz highlighted and shared photographs of events she attended including a lunch for residents of Tyrol Plaza. She stated the residents there have undergone trauma in the last few months.
She thanked The Anaheim Hotel, the Best Western Plus, The Pizza Press, Courtyard, Castle Inn, and The Westin for sponsoring lunch for the residents at Tyrol Plaza. Mayor Pro Tem Kurtz thanked the “Madres Unidas de Guinida Lane” and the Anaheim Elementary School District for their assistance with
the backpack and school supplies event for Paul Revere Elementary School students. She thanked Community Services staff for going above and beyond to assist a homeless student at the event. A School District representative was also able to enroll the student in school as well as a transportation program offered by the Anaheim School District so that the student will have transportation to Paul Revere Elementary School no matter where the family moves to in Orange County. Mayor Pro Tem Kurtz shared that she along with Council Member Faessel hosted the Boysen Community Meeting at Roosevelt Elementary School. She mentioned that constituents around the State College area in Districts 4 and 5 are having the same issues. They participated in a virtual bus tour and made 13 stops including the Tampico Hotel, Boysen Park, the former Luigi Italian Restaurant site, and the Hahm Motorsports site. There was a great turnout and she shared that she enjoyed the interaction with the residents. She thanked the Fire Department for a wonderful movie night held for residents at Boysen Park on one of the
hottest nights of the year. She thanked Anaheim firefighters who have gone to fight fires in other counties throughout the state. She assured residents that every fire station in Anaheim continues to be staffed. Anaheim firefighters were deployed to the Post and Basin fires in June, and in July they went to Butte,
4 August 13, 2024
Siskiyou, Santa Barbara, Humboldt, Trinity, Tulare, Shasta, Plumas, Kern, and Riverside counties to help with fires. Mayor Pro Tem Kurtz clarified that the City of Anaheim is reimbursed for those services and there is an agreement with those counties that if Anaheim needs fire assistance specifically in the
Anaheim Hills area, those counties will provide aid. She highlighted a before and after photo of a homeless encampment. Mayor Pro Tem Kurtz thanked the family who reached out to her office and through Anaheim Anytime to report the growing encampment. She thanked Deputy Director Lozeau and her team for cleaning up the encampment and for aiding an elderly veteran who was ill. They connected the veteran to the Department of Veterans Affairs and provided a veterans housing voucher. She also thanked residents who continue to report encampments, especially along the railroad tracks, on Caltrans property, and public areas.
Council Member Faessel requested adjourning the meeting in memory of Larry Larsen. Larry graduated from Anaheim High School in 1960 and worked hard for the betterment of graduates. He was committed to the rebuilding of the Anaheim High School pool and was also active in the Gypsum Canyon Veterans Cemetery project. Council Member Faessel highlighted and shared photographs of events he attended including the North Orange Continuing Education, formerly known as North Orange County Community College District, opening day celebration. He shared that he has been an instructor there since 1975 and it was fun sharing stories with staff, and seeing friends he has made over the years. Council Member
Faessel stated that it was nice to welcome and visit with the six exchange students from Mito, Japan. He shared that one of their most enjoyable experiences was making s'mores at a beach campfire because they do not do that in Japan. He also thanked Community Services and City Engineer Carlos Castellanos
for hosting the students. Council Member Faessel congratulated Helen Carter on her 94th birthday. He shared that Ms. Carter is an active Ebell Club member as well as a member of several organizations in Anaheim. He attended the backpack, school supplies, and food giveaway at Jafaria Church. He thanked the church and all the volunteers who helped to equip all the students with school supplies for a great school year.
Council Member Meeks requested adjourning the meeting in memory of former Anaheim Police Department Sergeant Greg Palmer. He served Anaheim from 1986 to 2010 on patrol, investigations, gang division, robbery, and homicide. He was awarded the Investigator of the Year Award, two distinguished service medals, and served as the Anaheim Police Association President.
Council Member Leon announced that the Anaheim Tech Scholars Program is back for all high school juniors and seniors. The program empowers college-bound high school juniors and seniors in Anaheim and provides laptops or tablets as well as internet access to prepare students for the next stage of their academic careers. He thanked his Council colleagues for their support in making the program happen last year. The application process will be open from August 26 through September 30. Information will be
posted on the City’s website as well as social media. Council Member Leon shared that this year's National Night Out was hosted in District 2 at Modjeska Park. Hundreds of Anaheim families attended the event to learn more about the work that the Anaheim Police Department does. Residents received
resources, experienced a live concert, and they were able to see him participate in a donut eating contest where he lost to the now four-time donut eating champion, Jason Perez from Anaheim Community Services. He congratulated Anaheim Chief of Police Armendariz as well as Carmela Mendoza from the West Anaheim Community Policing Team for all their hard work to ensure that this year's National Night Out was the best. He shared that his office hosted its second annual Back to School Bash at Madison Elementary School. He thanked all the community members, community partners, and volunteers who came together to make the event a major success. He thanked Anaheim Elementary School District Superintendent Jesse Chavarria, Principal Heiner, Vice Principal Crow, Santos the Custodian, and the entire Madison Elementary School team for allowing his team, in
5 August 13, 2024
collaboration with several community partners, to host the event at the school. Community Action Partnership of Orange County distributed food boxes. Backpacks and shoes were distributed thanks to AltaMed and United Across Borders. True School Barber Shop provided free haircuts. Over $11,000
worth of eyeglasses and vision exams were provided for free. He thanked OCEA and AMEA for providing hot dogs, and Senator Newman and his team for providing ice cream. He thanked Congressman Correa, Assemblywoman Quirk-Silva, and Senator Umberg for attending the event and connecting with the District 2 community. Council Member Leon thanked all the volunteers and Anthony, Dixie, Maggie, Richard, Patty, and Miranda who helped make the event happen. Council Member Leon requested adjourning the meeting in memory of John "Jack" Passerello. Jack owned Bluebell Nursery, which he opened alongside his wife, Arlene, in 1959 in District 2. He noted that Bluebell Nursery was recognized as a District 2 Business of the Month last year. Jack is survived by his wife, Arlene, his children Pam and Anthony, and 10 grandchildren. Council Member Leon stated that Jack's family and everyone who loved him are in his thoughts and prayers.
Council Member Rubalcava stated that there are approximately 50,000 residents who reside in District 3 and approximately 27,000 voters in a predominantly Latino community. She highlighted and shared photographs of events she attended in District 3. Council Member Rubalcava shared that she walks past Jack in the Box on Lincoln Avenue every day on her way to and from City Hall and many of the people
who work there are people who live in District 3. She noted that Jack in the Box employees must deal with either unhoused or mentally unstable individuals daily and so she wanted to highlight the individuals who are serving the people who live or visit Anaheim. She recognized two USC students, one of which is
a resident of District 3. The students are working on a policy initiative as part of their graduate studies regarding gang intervention and prevention and they came to her because she has been working closely with the Police Department Gang Enforcement Unit, Chief of Police Armendariz, City Manager Vanderpool, and Mayor Pro Tem Kurtz to address gang-related issues. She noted she grew up in a gang impacted area in District 3 and for her it is a major priority. The young ladies prepared an op-ed and requested to collaborate with her on something that is more substantive and find solutions to help tackle the growing issue in the City. She shared that she partnered with the Mondragon Family Market, a local business that has been in District 3 for 40 years, and they were able to give away 300 backpacks to local kids in the area. She noted that many who attended the event walked from their homes because there are a lot of areas in District 3 that have parking challenges. She stated that parking is a quality-of-life issue, and when she reviews or approves housing initiatives, she takes parking into consideration.
Unfortunately, the State of California has tied Council’s hands in many cases, and she recommended that those who have issues with parking contact their local Assembly Members and State Senators to let them know the issues they have created by some of their policies. She thanked everyone who
contributed to the event including the Mondragon family and City staff who accommodated the street closure so that the community remained safe. The young boys and girls received haircuts, backpacks, helmets, school supplies, and Kona Ice donated ice cream because it was one of the hottest days of the
year. She thanked Jack Knight (@jacktheartist2060), Public Utilities, Anaheim Police Department, Anaheim Fire Department, and the Oak Nature Center. She noted that many of the kids who live in District 3 have never attended the Oak Nature Center, but they were able to see some of the animals and things that are there, and it was a great experience for everyone. Council Member Rubalcava noted that August is Chicano Heritage Month in the City of Anaheim. Anaheim is one of two cities in the County of Orange that recognizes Chicano Heritage Month. She stated she is Mexican American, Chicana, and the Chicano riots took place at Little People's Park. Emigdio Vasquez painted the original mural that signified and represented the Mexican American community in Anaheim and across the county. She noted that his daughter accepted the recognition for Chicano Heritage Month earlier in the meeting and that is something that is significant for the City of Anaheim. She mentioned that Congressman Lou Correa, who was raised in District 3, is trying to get federal recognition for Chicano Heritage Month and
he was recently recognized by the Orange County Fair, a state agency that also recognizes Chicano
6 August 13, 2024
Heritage Month. Council Member Rubalcava attended National Night Out and noted La Palma Park and Pearson Park located in District 3 are two of the oldest parks in the City and would be great locations for National Night Out next year. She noted that community leader Sofia Romero was recognized by the
Community Police Team because she has been instrumental in not only helping get individuals who are unhoused housing, but she has been keeping Deputy Director Sandra Lozeau, Anaheim Police Department, and herself informed on people who are getting their rents raised or individuals who might need food assistance. Council Member Rubalcava attended a community meeting that took place at Emerald Point located off Lincoln Avenue and Euclid Street, a newer development in District 3. She noted that many of the property owners at Emerald Pointe are very engaged and Sergeant Pardo from the Anaheim Police Department was there to address some of the public safety concerns. She also thanked Deputy Director Sandra Lozeau, Neighborhood Services, and Public Utilities General Manager Dukku Lee for walking around the community to address public safety issues that are occurring there.
Mayor Aitken thanked all the families and City staff that helped give the six exchange students from Mito, Japan a memorable experience. They spent time in the Friendship Garden, which is a homage to the City’s relationship with Mito, Japan, they received tours of City Hall and Angel Stadium, they attended National Night Out, and they were able to enjoy a day at Disneyland. She stated she is an advocate for the City’s Sister Cities Program and building international relationships with all generations. Mayor Aitken
thanked the Police Department for all the community activities at National Night Out. She thanked Council Member Leon for participating in the donut eating contest this year, because the one time she participated was enough. She stated the Anaheim Police Department staff worked hard on hosting the
event and Modjeska Park was a beautiful site to have the event at. She thanked everyone who attended the event including the K9 Officers, Equine Officers, the SWAT Team, and the Anaheim Police Department Helicopter, Angel. Mayor Aitken stated that with summer coming to an end, it is time for backpack and school supply giveaways for families in the community. Her office partnered with Orange County Supervisor Vicente Sarmiento, United Across Borders, Mi Pueblo Foundation, Shelly Padilla at State Farm, La Casa Garcia, and Regalo de Corazon Foundation to make sure that students have the supplies they need to succeed in the upcoming school year, including new shoes donated by Vans. She thanked everyone who made the event possible, including Public Utilities and Community Services for always being there. Mayor Aitken thanked SA Recycling for inviting her to tour their facility to see what they do with all the scrap metal that gets dropped off by Anaheim residents. They accept steel, tin, old cars, and appliances. The items are shredded, repackaged in a baler, and then are sent out to become
some of the supplies needed for building houses and for doing all sorts of things. Mayor Aitken stated that Council Member Faessel mentioned SA Recycling has the largest electric motor in Orange County. She thanked all businesses for inviting Council to tour their facilities to learn what they are doing to make
the community a better place.
CITY MANAGER’S UPDATE:
Assistant City Manager Greg Garcia echoed all the sentiments regarding National Night Out. He thanked
Chief of Police Rick Armendariz and his team for an amazing event and thanked Community Services for assisting with the event. He congratulated the Finance Department, specifically Director Debbie Moreno and her team, for receiving the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program from the Government Finance Officers Association for the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the 48th year in a row.
