Discuss and Take Possible Action Regarding a Proposal to Provide Economic
Development Services to the City of San Bernardino
City Attorney Penman declared a conflict because his wife is the president and CEO of
the local Chamber of Commerce. He left the Council Chamber and was replaced by
Special Counsel Tom Clark.
To avoid the appearance of a conflict, Council Member Shorett left the Council Chamber, r;
stating that he would abstain on this item because the Chamber of Commerce does N
business with his brother's company, Crown Printers. y
Mr. Nolan made a presentation on behalf of the Chamber of Commerce. He stated that Q
the City is in a time of economic recovery and there is a great need for attracting new
businesses and increasing the businesses of the already existing entities.

C
Mr. Nolan asked the City to use primarily, if not exclusively, the transient occupancy tax
to fund specific business enhancement efforts by the Chamber. He said without such an c
endeavor, the City will be without any effort towards developing new business. He
further stated that the Chamber's proposal would be at a rate much less than the City
could do the various functions itself. The chamber sought a one-year trial for a rate of Ni
$10,000 per month for a total of $120,000 for that year for services, with an option to _j

extend the agreement. 3:

last night and tonight, but they will have no lodging tomorrow. Per instructions received

9. Public Comments on Items Not on the Agenda o
Andrea Neyses, Highland, said the City's animal shelter is filthy and in horrible
condition. She said she'd been marking the walls for three months to prove her point that
the kennels are not being cleaned properly between animals with communicable diseases. Y
a
Gary Appulm, Spring Valley, said that animal rescue shelters are hands-off to those
animals in the San Bernardino shelter—that it's not the kind of place you'd want your pet
to be if you lost him. He encouraged the Council to visit the shelter unannounced and see
the conditions.
Maria Sanchez, Riverside, said she's been emailing the Council members for months,
but has had no responses, there has been no improvement in the shelter conditions, and
she doesn't know what else to do. She stated that the management staff at the shelter are
under the impression that the Hayden law has been completely suspended, and that is not
true—only portions of it have been suspended. That is why they believe they can kill the

owner-surrendered animals upon intake, but by law they still have to hold them the same
length of time as a stray.
Michael Levitt, Los Angeles, stated that they are not animal extremists—they are loving
people—they are professionals. He asked about the soul of San Bernardino, the moral
compass of the city. He noted that a rescued animal becomes a public figure via
Facebook and the San Bernardino shelter is a slaughterhouse. He stated that the City has
a crisis on its hands and the rest of the community is mobilizing to focus on the City's
shelter. He asked to put the issue on the agenda to discuss this in more detail.
Lisa Corona, Beverly Hills, said her dog was sodomized—that on June 15, she adopted a
6-month-old puppy to save her life; and the dog went missing in the shelter on Monday
when she was supposed to be spayed. She was able to locate shelter volunteers, who N
found the dog. On June 25, she got a call from the doctor, who said the dog had been 3
sodomized with something the size of a cucumber. She asked that the volunteers and/or
employees at the shelter be required to have background checks for sexual deviant a
behavior; and require the shelter to be truthful and transparent with people and admit that
they don't have a contract with General Dog and Cat.
Shirley Harlan, San Bernardino, said she would like the Council to find a way to make
sure people are comfortable to come to speak to the Council. It discourages people when
important people who live in the city make them feel like they cannot speak out. She also
said she was a friend of Roberta Shouse, and she appreciated the Council's recognition of a,
Ms. Shouse's efforts for the legal aid society. She thanked Council Members Marquez �I
and McCammack for starting a scholarship in her honor. =i
J
Sandra Olivas, San Bernardino, stated that she was the First Ward commissioner for they
Historical Preservation Commission. They will be holding a workshop on September 7, o
at 5 p.m. at the Historical Society regarding the Mills Act. She explained that you qualify
for the Mills Act if you own a home built before 1942. She stated that when you do
d
apply for the Mills Act you will receive a percentage off your property taxes, and that
savings will be money a person can use to help maintain the home, preserve the home, or r�
rehabilitate the home. N
o>
Betty Jean Long, San Bernardino, said she is ashamed of the Mayor and Council—that c
they have put themselves in a position that they think they cannot work their way out of.
One way they can is to stop doing what they are doing. She said she would run for
mayor.
R
Jane Sneddon, San Bernardino, spoke about a program being held at the Norton Air a
Force Base Museum on Wednesday night. The guest speaker will be Col. Raymond J.
Merritt, who was a POW in Vietnam for seven and a half years.
Richard Castro, San Bernardino, a retired teacher and wrestling coach, said he has a
deep history in the city, and he has a great desire to be among people who are going to
make movement. He also stated that he is running for mayor.
Cesar Gomez, San Bernardino, said he was there to advocate for Richard Castro, who is
running for mayor, and for John Abad, who is running for the First Ward Council seat.

Bill Sandefur, San Bernardino, said he had tried to contact Penman's office before the
council meeting, to no avail, and said he wanted to know why the City Attorney had tried
to rubber stamp his eviction. He complained about the City Attorney's behavior during
several incidents.
John Abad, San Bernardino, discussed his background and where he had lived in the
city. He talked about his experience getting permits in the city for a special event
connected to property he owns. He said he is in a quagmire, and that is what is
happening in the city—the city is not business friendly.
Sandra Ortega, San Bernardino, spoke against the prostitution in her neighborhood and
explained an encounter she had recently with two prostitutes in her area.

N
Esther Flores, San Bernardino, said she was concerned about the safety of her children.
She has little girls and thinks the prostitution levels are not a good message for them.

Deanna Adams, San Bernardino, said she has decided that one way to change the city is
to adopt a block, going house to house and meeting people. She said that people's overall 3
wellbeing has been compromised and she would like a dedicated fund for public safety.
She said the criminals today are different than they were 20 years ago. She stated that the
