COUNCIL COMMUNICATIONS:
Mayor Aitken shared that she along with Council colleagues and staff had the honor of visiting the City’s
Sister City of Mito, Japan in late April. This was the City's second delegation visit to Mito in the past 20
years. The trip was made to promote cultural exchange as part of the 50-year Sister City relationship with
Mito, and to promote Anaheim as a place to invest and to visit. The trip started in Tokyo where they met
with the Japanese Association of Travel Agents, one of the largest booking agencies for trips to
Anaheim. From there they went to Mito, where they met with Mayor Yasushi Takahashi and other
officials. In Mito, they had the chance to present an investment opportunity and share with them about
opportunities available in Anaheim. She shared photographs of the trip including of Mito-Chan, Mito,
Japan’s mascot. She thanked the delegation from Mito for visiting Anaheim last year and for their
amazing hospitality. Mayor Aitken highlighted and shared photographs of events she attended in
Anaheim including the Zion Lutheran Church thrift store ribbon cutting ceremony and stated that Zion
Lutheran Church has been active and doing good deeds in Anaheim for over 120 years. She attended
the Cinco de Mayo Fiesta at La Palma Park and thanked City staff, Anaheim Police Department,
Anaheim Fire and Rescue, Anaheim Public Utilities, Community Services, and OCTA for organizing the
event. She thanked Public Utilities General Manager Dukku Lee for inviting her to the Honda Center on

conservation.

photographs of events she attended. She noted that District 4 residents and businesses experienced a
power outage that lasted several hours. She thanked Anaheim Public Utilities for working to restore
power as quickly as possible including providing a generator for a resident who was concerned about not
being able to heat her baby's formula. Mayor Pro Tem Kurtz visited Tyrol Plaza for their springtime Door
Decorating Contest and shared that she was reminded how precious life is and how quickly the
community can change. She explained that a murder-suicide occurred ten minutes after she left Tyrol

were optimized. He highlighted a photograph of Anaheim Way, a street in the City of Mito. While touring
Mito with Mayor Yasushi Takahashi, he felt welcomed by all residents and delegates. He stated that
seeing the American and Japanese flags displayed together gave him hope that one day Republicans
and Democrats will shake hands again and work towards a common goal.
Council Member Faessel shared that he also visited Mito, Japan and through interpreters, discussed
potential partnerships between the City of Anaheim and Mito, Japan. He requested adjourning the City
Council meeting in memory of Diann Marsh. She led the historic preservation movement in Anaheim in
the late 60s and early 70s. Through her efforts, the Carnegie Library and Kramer Building were

meeting in memory of Mike Reynolds who worked for Anaheim Public Utilities for 32 years. Council

Public Utilities Board and that led to his 20 plus years of volunteer service. He attended the Paseo,
Centrico, and Tiendita restaurant ribbon cutting ceremony at Downtown Disney and the Sycamore Junior
High School Public Safety Academy graduation. He shared photographs of events he attended including

and learn from each other regarding the future of mobility, housing, communities, the environment, the
economy, and learn valuable information from a panel regarding local transportation in cities across the
Southern California Region. He joined Council colleagues and staff in visiting Mito, Japan. They had the
opportunity to tour some of Mito’s facilities including their new City Hall and met with HIS International
Tours which is Japan's second largest travel agency. He shared that he had the opportunity to highlight
District 2’s Little Arabia as an additional stop for people visiting Anaheim. In collaboration with
Supervisors Doug Chaffee and Vicente Sarmiento, he invited everyone to the Gun Buyback event on
