You don't often get email from [email protected]. Learn whvlhisjsimportant Good Evening.

When it comes to blackberry, it must be sent to landfill. lt is horrible to deal with and illegal! Washington Hill residents would do more if we had a practical disposal method for blackberry.

We would like the City of Grass Valley to check into getting "BAGSTER" service into GV through Waste Management. This is a large flexible bag that can be purchased by residents for approximately $30.00.

WM picks up for a fee which I suppose would be covered by us. lf you could -2247check out this as a possible remedy to our blackberry issue it would be greatly appreciated! Perhaps there are other ideas being discussed that we are unaware of. We are also looking into hiring a goat herder. lt is all quite expensive! We are really trying to harden our homes and neighborhood.

Thank You and have a good day and a nice weekend!

To: Publ ic Com ments < publ ic@cityofg rassva I ley.com > This is Sandra Spargo. I live at 230 illicium place and Morgan ranch. As you review this evening's resolutions regarding Morgan Ranch West and Morgan Ranch Unit 7's myriad of resolutions about drainage improvements, police consider strong water drainage on the city block long landscape easement that Parallels Ridge Rd. The easement is composed of 19 private lots, 19 owners who have no expertise regarding stormwater laws and frankly, they cannot stop the ditches pollution directly into Slate Creek. The ditch is shallow, nonline built of river rock sinking into mud. The ditch is mainly original, built in 2001 and now covered with pine needles and flora. There is a dilemma between Morgan ranch restrictions and the city of Grass Valley resolutions, Morgan. Branches declaration of restriction states owners are responsible for maintaining all such easements in all facilities there in at the same time, homeowners pay property tax to the city on the landscape easement and a city tax for its upkeep. Morgan ranch restrictions pirate odds with resolution of zone one regarding Morgan ranch lighting and landscaping act of nineteen seventy two, the resolution includes the city 's care of quote, the repair, removal, or replacement of any improvement, UN quote. Page two sixty five did the agenda Morgan ranch unit seven states quote the maintenance operation and servicing of drainage improvements dot dot dot in the routine administration of the district including the maintenance, operations and servicing of the drainage improvements. That's accordingly storm drainage paralleling Ridge Road is an improvement per the city 's definition of Morgan ranch unit seven 's definition of drainage as an improvement. So what takes precedence? A strong water dish is an improvement. The city 's resolution, supported by their landscaping admitting act of nineteen seventy two and the Benefit Assessment Act of nineteen eighty two or Morgan Ranch Ranch is declaration of restrictions. He is still ladder. Backyard fencing needs to include in date for easement access and standards followed to current laws to replace this 22 year old stormwater ditch your help in clearing up this matter is appreciated and I have a sent to tailor a three page letter with pictures. Thank you very much. Good evening.

Re: What Takes Landscape Easement Precedence--the City's Resolution or Morgan Ranch Restrictions?
Dear City Council Members:

As you review this evening's resolutions regarding Morgan Ranch West's and Morgan Ranch Unit 7's myriad of resolutions about drainage improvements, please consider stormwater drainage on the City's block-long landscape easement that parallels Ridge Road. The easement is composed of 19 private lots, 19 owners, who have no expertise regarding stormwater laws, and, frankly, cannot stop the ditch's pollution directly into Slate Creek.

Stormwater Ditch Location and Construction Standards
The block-long stormwater ditch flows into Slate Creek, passing through 19 lots. A portion of the ditch runs within backyard fencing and a portion runs outside backyard fencing. flhe City approved no gates within backyard fencing to access landscape easements.) Of the portion outside backyard fencing, Scope Landscaping occasionally maintains the ditch approximately on five lots near the front entrance to Morgan Ranch. The rest of the ditch is neglected on 14 lots.

Please find below the current condition of the shallow, non-lined, river rock stormwater ditch, portions located outside backyard fencing. These portions are original, built in 2001. ln the first two pictures, the ditch is covered with pine needles and flora. !n the third picture, a portion of the ditch is located within a lot's backyard fencing. Thus, due to flooding, the owner dug a channel under the backyard fence to guide stormwater flow outside the ditch to the landscape easement. Stormwater runs over the easement and onto the sidewalk along Ridge Road. Neighbors have been flooded up to their homes' foundations, and, so, seek a way to contro! stormwater away from their homes. Most of the block-long ditch is original construction--shallow, unlined and river rock that has sunk into the mud. Owners do not want to spend money to repair/update their portion of the ditch due to cost. No inspection occurs of the entire ditch to ensure no flooding, water blockage, nor pollution into Slate Creek.

I
a O
t
2ot3
Pollution flows from Woodcrest Way and from the First Baptist Church's propefi. Three buildings on First Baptist church property encompass 31,928 sq. ft. Thus, at least 31,928 sq. ft. of roofing sheds stormwater. ln addition, the 47,815 sq. ft. parking lot sheds stormwater. Total hard surface stormwater runoff equals 79,743 sq.ft.

Pollution comes from cars in the parking lot, as well as trash, including used condoms.

Moreover, besides churchgoers using the parking lot, students of Nevada Union High School use the lot.

Portions of the ditch's 22-year-old construction is no match for stormwater volume that carries pollution directly into Slate Creek.

This picture shows the construction of the
original stormwater ditch in 2001. Note its
shallowness, allowing record rains to flood, as
did the torrents of rain during the winter of
2017.

Note that the ditch is being constructed within
backyard fencing yet to be built. My
observation is that the majority of owners
neglect maintenance, unless heavy rains are
threatened or flooding occurs. One new owner
on Elysian Place did not know there was a
stormwater ditch within her backyard, because
it was covered with weeds.

The Oilemma with Between Morgan Ranch Restrictions and the Gity of Grass Valley Morgan Ranch's Declamtion of Restrictions states the following in Secflon 4.9, Restrictions on Gmding and Drainage: (a) Certain lots contain dninage easements as shown on the Subdivision Map. OWNERS ABE RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING ALL SUCH EASEMENIS AND ALL FACILITIESTHEREIN. (Written in bold.)
Perhaps, in 2001, when the developer constructed an inadequate stormwater system, there were an absence of laws--such as the City of Grass Valley's Design Standards for Storm Drainage or California's Storm Drain Regulations or California's Storm Water Discharges from Smal I M u n i ci pal Separate Sto rm Seurer Sysfems.

I am positive that this block-long stormwater ditch that parallels Ridge Road meets none of the law's current standards. The City has left this stormwater ditch behind, burdening homeowners without expertise with upkeep, burdening market values and pocket books when forced to dealwith flooding.

At the same time, homeowners pay property tax on the landscape easement and a tax for its upkeep.

So, What Takes Precedence?
Morgan Ranch Restrictions are at odds with Resolution of Zone 1 - Morgan Ranch, No. 1 includes the City's care of The repai4 removalor replacement of any improvement.

Page 265 ends

seruicing of drainage improvements. . . in the routine administration of the district, including the maintenance, operations and seruicing of the drainage improvements.

Thus, accordingly, storm drainage paralleling Ridge Road is an improvement per the City's definition of Morgan Ranch Unit 7's definition of drainage as an improvement.

So, what takes precedence? A stormwater ditch is an improvement. The City's Resolutions, supported by the Landscaping and Lighting Act of 1972 andthe BenefitAssessment Act of 1982 or Morgan Ranch's Declarution of Restrictions?
lf the latter, backyard fencing needs to include a gate for easement access and standards followed according to current laws to replace this 22-year-old stormwater ditch.

Who will pay for a block-long, updated stormwater ditch and gates to allow owners' access to landscape easements? The City disallowed gates when approving developer design.

Your help in clearing up this matter is appreciated.

Sincerely,
Sandra Spargo

Yes, Matthew called her like to comment on the strategic planning, strategic strategic plan. As Tim would say is very lacking. Lacking in bike trails, connectivity, safety, crosswalks, walkability. lt just seems to be more one way in one way out developments, onto streets that have no crosswalks, no infrastructure, no sidewalks, no stop signs, and it's just a recipe for disaster. So I would highly recommend that you add in some Traffic Safety. ls that something that happens here daily of injury accidents, multiple times a day right here in town, close in downtown. So please consider safety as something that we might want to deal with and maybe not. Maybe you can call it safety arts and that would help it go down the pallet of some people. Try it might work.

You are aware there's a delay on your feed versus the telephone and then you have to listen to your message before you even pick up to make a public comment. So when the mayor says it's good that there's no public comment, I guess that's what he means. l'd like to make a comment on the whole year worth of Grass Valley City budget. lt's a lot of money and no ones gonna comment on it because you don't allow people to comment on it so that's baffling, yet not. You guys all enjoy your new trucks now that you picked up or will pick up soon or are on order.

Alrighty then.

With County Hi, l'm calling during that topic, so maybe it'll get in there because I don't want to call too late on the lighting district. The LED lights are horrible. The LED lights they put in Memorial Park on the veterans flag or horrible too powerful, the LED lights on the Bread Heart Hotel dominate downtown when it should be. The Dell'oro tower should be the brightest, tallest light in town But those lights dominate as well as other lights that are being put in around town that are LED, that are extremely bright white that ruin your night vision when you're driving. And often many, many, many lights in town are running 24 hours a day. And I don't care if they're Ellie D's or not. They're taking juice. They should have be on a timer or sensors so they come on when it's dark. lf you want him on all night, not24 hours a day. Thank you.

Sure that people understand. Yes. Since we're asking questions to waste management, l'd like to see the contract used to be 96 pages. I believe for Grass Valley with a 10% kickback for recycling for waste management which is a slightly different from Nevada city inside different from the county. But I would like to see that contract and when can that be made available for this, what it is, this is what it is as you guys say. That's my question. l'll be listening British.
