COMMENTS
90.A.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Miles Leach, 2025 W. Tenth Street, explained that his statement at the previous Council
meeting was a fact, not an opinion. He further clarified that "since the Council is not elected
by wards, there is no ward representation by the Council and there is definitely no minority
representation no matter how you divide your wards up."
Kathi Jo Brunning, 2414 N. Spruce Street, requested a status report on the Northwest Traffic
Plan and expressed concern that a proposed camping ordinance might negatively impact Girl
Scout camping activities. The City Attorney explained that groups with permits would not be
impacted by the proposed ordinance. The Public Works Agency Executive Director
indicated he would provide Ms. Brunning with a copy of the memo previously given to
Council regarding the Northwest Traffic Plan's status.
90.C.
CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS
Councilmember Norton requested staff provide him with the schedule for installation of a
left-turn signal for east-west traffic at the Bristol/Segerstrom intersection.
Councilmember McGuigan requested a similar report from staff regarding a left-turn signal
at the Bristol/McFadden intersection. She also informed the listening public that CalTrans
was cooperating in recycling efforts by reusing asphalt removed for the interstate widening
project, rather than sending the material to a landfill.
In response to Councilmember Griset's inquiry regarding development of a preferential
policy for awarding labor contracts to Santa Ana residents, the City Manager explained that
staff was surveying other jurisdictions and would be providing information to the Council at
a later date.
