Subject: Non-agenda Public Comment For Feb 15 Meeting
Date: Monday, February 14, 2022 4:11:12 PM
Dear Lemon Grove City Council Members,
February is American Heart Month, a time when all people can focus on their cardiovascular health.
I want to share with you a recent study published in the Canadian Medical Association Journal found that adults under 45 years of age who consumed marijuana within the past 30 days had almost double the amount of heart attacks compared to those who didn’t use the drug.
The study looked at 33,173 American adults who participated in the US Behavioral Risk Factor survey. According to the analysis, those who reported smoking marijuana more than 4 times per month had twice the odds of suffering a myocardial infarction.
The research found a common misperception that any level of marijuana use is safe.
However, the marijuana being used today is high potent. More and more research is emerging that demonstrates the serious health consequences that arise from using these high potency marijuana products.
Legalization is contributing to this public health crisis that is only getting started and will get much worse unless lawmakers act to rein in this newest addition from this forprofit industry.
Thank you,
Barbara Gordon

Good morning Ms. Malone,
Thank you for your service the following is my comment for tonight. Thank you.
The following email was sent to our self proclaimed CEO and I’d like a response out of public safety concerns and conflicting information from leadership and the workers in Public works who seem ok with status quo. Email reads as follows. - Good evening Ms. Romero,
Thank you for your service, I took Super Bowl time to hang out the main st. promenade and observe the goings on. The neglect in this area has become a safe haven for crime.
Anything we can do? I’ve let Mike know numerous times and am starting to get concerned that the city doesn’t have a process. The graffiti has been present for months. Who does graffiti abatement on public property/bus stops and what kind of turnaround time should we expect? I’ve included Dave Eckler on this chain with the lions club who from my observations is the only human doing this needed work.
Thank you. Respectfully,
Josh klein

Subject: Cannabis Regulations Update
Date: Tuesday, February 1, 2022 5:28:08 PM
Hello Council Members,
As a Public Health Educator.I track drug policy and the effects it has on local communities.
There is growing acknowledgment that attempts to regulate the MJ industry are NOT curtailing the black market.
In CalMatters over the weekend, the CEO of a licensed MJ brand described how some licensed growers divert part of their crop to the illegal market to subsize their legal operations. This CEO is not the first to publicly describe the double-dealing.
The oversupply of MJ is widely acknowledged in driving down wholesale prices.
One thing is clear– there is no need to license MORE marijuanagrowers or entertain requests for expansion.
Proponents of regulation also used tax revenues as a selling point. But now growers are threatening to boycott cultivation taxes in protest.
I’m sure there are a lot of business owners who would LIKE to boycott their taxes, but who pay them none-the-less.
State Senator Steve Bradford suggests cutting start-up costs for pot business, such as limiting the "extensive environmental reviews".
This, when we know MJ is frequently contaminated with fungus and mold – laden with pesticides, fungicides, and rodenticides, and uses large amounts of water and energy, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions.
I speak for many who demand accountability for this industry.
Regards,
Kelly McCormick

City Clerk: please provide this letter to the City Council and to the meeting records for 2/15/2022. Thank you.
Dear Mayor Vasquez and Lemon Grove City Council Members Gastil, Jones, Mendoza, and LeBaron:
With Monday being Valentine’s Day, sweets are prominent. This seems an appropriate time, as a public health educator and child advocate, to share warnings from the New York Times showing rising rates of ingestion of marijuana edibles by children under 6.
This rise is confirmed by scientific publications such as Harvard Health, by medical and treatment organizations, and the state of Colorado. The Times reports that edible exposure to children is 6 times more frequent where marijuana has been legalized.
The most common age for related poison controls cals is age 3-5 -- old enough to find a cookie attractive, not enough to discern it's loaded with THC.
As marijuana outlets increasingly market an expanding menu of edible cookies and candies with child appeal, public and parent awareness is paramount to protect toddlers like Oliver. Little Oliver consumed 15 gummies -- 7 times the THC serving recommended for an adult. He’s just one small example.
To prevent children from ingesting and suffering symptoms from "acting high" to having breathing difficulties to becoming comatose, increased parent and public awareness is critical. Please help share this information within our community.
Regards,
Peggy Walker

Good evening, mayor Vasquez and city council, I’m writing to you as I cannot attend in person tonight, my name is Becky Rapp, I’m a parent and public health educator. I wanted to share with you some information from IASIC, The international Academy on the Science and Impact of Cannabis. IASIC is an organization of international experts on cannabis who are guided by medicine and science to provide accurate and honest information. Dr. Shannon Murphy presented on marijuana and the pediatric patient.
She explains how the psychosocial screening is an essential part of the adolescent medical visit. Recent changes in marijuana laws around the country have impacted adolescent views on marijuana. Teens’ perception of harm regarding marijuana use has decreased. Marijuana now surpasses tobacco use for many young people.
It's crucial health experts and Health departments understand the negative effects marijuana use can have on the adolescent and know what topics to address during a medical visit.
I recently purchased cookies at local cookie shop called Cookie Plug that my family visits frequently. I noticed they had smaller cookies of popular flavors for sale. I was shocked to learn they were CBD infused.
Being advertised as the “therapeutic” cookie in 12 flavors baked fresh daily. Medical claims were also listed as possible benefits, pain relief, inflammation relief, anxiety relief, depression relief and more.
This prime example of normalization of marijuana products not only decreases the perception of harm to adolescents but to young children.
Elementary aged children who are curious of flavors when buying cookies at a local cookie shop.
I urge you to listen to Dr. Shannon Murphy as our children are in trouble. Prevention messaging is needed more now than ever before.
CBD infused cookies at a local family frequented cookie store is sending the message of normalcy and decreasing the perception of harm.
Please help educate families in our city making them your number one priority.
Thank you

CITY OF LEMON GROVE
CITY COUNCIL
STAFF REPORT
Item No. 1. D
Meeting Date: February 15, 2022
Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Department: City Manager’s Office
Staff Contact: Christian Olivas, Management Analyst; [email protected] Item Title: Authorization to Submit a Grant Application to CalRecycle for the SB 1383 Local Assistance Grant Program FY 2021- 22 Recommended Action: Adopt a resolution (Attachment A) authorizing the submittal of a grant application to CalRecycle for the SB 1383 Local Assistance Grant Program FY 2021-22, and direct the City Manager or her designee to execute any grant related documents.
Summary: The City of Lemon Grove has submitted a grant application to the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) to request funding from the Local Assistance Grant Program FY 2021-22 to support the implementation of SB 1383 regulations. The grant funds would pay for the costs associated with conducting education and outreach regarding organic waste services and edible food recovery, establishing an edible food recovery program, conducting inspections and enforcement of local generators and ensuring the City’s procurement target are met for recovered organic waste products and recycled paper products.
Background: On September 19, 2016, Governor Brown signed Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383) Lara, Chapter Statutes of 2016, establishing methane emissions reduction targets for California in a statewide effort to reduce emissions from short-lived climate pollutants (SLCP). Methane from decomposing organic waste in landfills is a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, therefore SB 1383 requires CalRecycle to develop regulations that reduce the disposal of organic waste to 50% below 2014 levels by 2020, and 75% by 2025. The law also requires the State to increase edible food recovery of currently disposed surplus food by at least 20% by 2025; making SB 1383 the most significant waste reduction mandate to be adopted in California in the last 30 years.
CalRecycle is administering a one-time non-competitive grant to assist with the implementation of regulation requirements associated with SB 1383, including, but not limited to:
CalRecycle Grant Application
February 15, 2022

• Capacity Planning
• Collection
• Edible Food Recovery
• Education and outreach (includes organic wastes & edible food recovery) • Enforcement and Inspection
• Program Evaluation/GAP Analysis
• Procurement Requirements
Discussion: On January 3, 2022, CalRecycle released funding estimates that each local jurisdiction is eligible to receive under the SB 1383 Local Assistance Grant Program.
Under the first round of funding, the City of Lemon Grove is eligible to receive $35,545 to support the implementation of SB 1383 in Lemon Grove. Depending on the amount of funds awarded, the City may be eligible to receive additional funding.
As part of the grant guidelines, the City must submit a SB1383 Program application detailing the proposed use of these funds and a City Council adopted resolution authorizing grant submittal. Staff’s recommendation for the use of these grants funds include following:
• Edible Food Recovery Programs and Services
o Implement and oversee an edible food recovery program that recovers edible food from the waste stream;
o Ensure that commercial edible food generators establish documented arrangements with food recovery services.
• Outreach and Education
o Conduct education and outreach related to organic waste and edible food recovery.
• Inspections and Enforcement
o Conduct inspections to ensure compliance with edible food recovery requirements;
o Ensure compliance with the local organics recycling ordinance. • Procurement Requirements
o Ensure procurement target is met for recovered organic waste products and recycled paper products.
If the City Council adopts the resolution (Attachment A), City staff will submit the resolution to CalRecycle by the March 1, 2022 deadline. Assuming CalRecycle approves the grant application, the City will be able to use grant funds for the implementation of activities listed above to ensure compliance with SB 1383 regulation requirements.

STAFF REPORT
Item No. 1.E
Meeting Date: February 15, 2022
Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Department: City Manager’s Office
Staff Contact: Christian Olivas, Management Analyst; [email protected] Item Title: Authorization to Submit a Notification of Intent to Comply with SB 1383 to CalRecycle
Recommended Action: Adopt a resolution (Attachment A) authorizing the submittal of a Notification of Intent to Comply with SB 1383 regulation requirements to CalRecycle, and direct the City Manager or her designee to execute any related documents.
Summary: Due to challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Newsom signed Senate Bill (SB) 619 that provides a one-year extension to agencies that are unable to comply with SB 1383 regulation requirements. In order to receive an extension, the City must submit a Notification of Intent to Comply with SB 1383 regulation requirements to CalRecycle.
Background: On September 19, 2016, Governor Brown signed into law Senate Bill (SB 1383) Lara, Chapter 395, Statutes of 2016, establishing methane emissions reduction targets for California in a statewide effort to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants (SLCP) in various sectors of California's economy. Methane from decomposing organic waste in landfills is a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The state defines “Organic waste” as food, landscape and pruning trimmings, lumber, wood, manure, cardboard, paper products, printing and writing paper, and other plant and animal based products. The new law codifies the California Air Resources Board's ShortLived Climate Pollutant Reduction Strategy, established pursuant to SB 605 (Lara, Chapter 523, Statutes of 2014), to achieve reductions in the statewide emissions of shortlived climate pollutants. Actions to reduce short-lived climate pollutants are essential to address the many impacts of climate change on human health, especially in California's most at-risk communities, and on the environment.
From 2016-2020, CalRecycle worked to develop regulations to achieve the goals of SB 1383. In November of 2020, CalRecycle finalized the final regulation text. The regulations went into effect on January 1, 2022, which requires every city and county in California to have an enforceable SB 1383 Ordinance in place by this date. The law establishes Notification of Intent to Comply

statewide targets to reduce the disposal of organic waste by 50% below 2014 levels by 2020, and 75% by 2025. The law also requires the State to increase edible food recovery of currently disposed surplus food by at least 20% by 2025 and to redirect that food to people in need; making SB 1383 the most significant waste reduction mandate to be adopted in California in the last 30 years.
The main elements of SB 1383 regulations include the following:
• Capacity Planning
• Organics and Recycling Collection
• Edible Food Recovery
• Education and outreach (includes organic wastes & edible food recovery) • Enforcement and Inspection
• Contamination Monitoring
• Procurement
Discussion: With the delays in finalizing the SB 1383 regulations, CalRecycle has prioritized three components of the regulations to be in place prior to January 2022: an enforceable ordinance, an edible food recovery program, and mandatory organics collection. However, as a response to the challenges created by the COVID-19 pandemic and the associated delays in rulemaking for SB 1383, Governor Newsom signed SB 619, which allows agencies to request that CalRecycle waive fines for the 2022 calendar year for non-compliance. The fines will only be waived for agencies that submit a “Notification of Intent to Comply” with CalRecycle by March 1, 2022. Many parts of SB 1383 will take time to develop and implement. City staff is currently working on an Implementation Plan that addresses any gaps in meeting the requirements of SB 1383 regulations.
The attached resolution contains language required by CalRecycle to comply with the extension request. Therefore, City staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the submittal of a “Notification to Comply” to CalRecycle to ensure additional time and flexibility to implement the SB 1383 regulation requirements for organic recycling.

Recommended Action: Adopt a resolution (Attachment A) approving the lease agreement with the Urban League of San Diego County.
Background: In line with the City Council FY 21-22 priorities to expand partnership with local community groups and to expand additional youth offerings, staff has worked with the Urban League of San Diego County to bring their programs free of charge to the Lemon Grove residents in exchange for use of the Community Center, Recreation Center and future office space at the Senior Center.
Discussion: To increase community programs for both youth and residents, a partnership has been established with the Urban League of San Diego County to bring their numerous programs to Lemon Grove. In return, the City will enter into a no cost lease agreement for the use of the Community Center and the Recreation Center, when scheduling permits.

CITY OF LEMON GROVE
CITY COUNCIL
STAFF REPORT
Item No. 3.
Meeting Date: February 15, 2022
Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Department: Public Works Department
Staff Contact: Mike James, Assistant City Manager/ Public Works Director, [email protected]
Item Title: Approve the Application(s) for the Local Assistance Specified Grant
Recommended Action: Adopt a resolution (Attachment A) approving the application(s) for the Local Assistance Specified Grant from the California Department of Parks and Recreation, Office of Grants and Local Services.
Summary: In April 2021, the City requested one-time, restricted use funds from the State of California (State) through Assembly Member Dr. Weber’s office (Attachment C). Based on the City Council capital improvement program discussion that was held earlier in 2021 as part of the annual budget process, staff applied for $400,000 in State grant funding to purchase and install new park restrooms at Lemon Grove and Berry Street Parks. Subsequent to the application, the City was notified that its request was approved and it should proceed with the steps necessary to complete the restroom project.
The first step of that process is for the City Council to adopt a resolution (Attachment A) approving the application(s) for the Local Assistance Specified Grant.
Background: The Local Assistance Specified Grant (Grant) originated from a line item in the State of California Budget for Fiscal Year 2021-2022. The California Department of Parks and Recreation, Office of Grants and Local Services (OGALS) serves as the Grant administrator and primary point of contact for the City. In October 2021, Assembly Member Dr. Weber’s office notified City staff that its request for $400,000 in grant funding under this program was approved and should await for further instruction from the State.
Local Assistance Specified Grant
February 15, 2022
Page | 2
Discussion: On February 9, 2022, City staff met with the Project Officer from OGALS to review the procedural guide and highlight key action items that will be important to submit an application(s), monitor and report on grant activities, and complete the grant program with a final inspection and report.
The first step in the grant process is to submit a formatted resolution (Attachment A) approved by the City Council to OGALS. This step will officially encumber the funds in the State’s budget. Next, the City will receive a contract from the State that must be signed by the authorized representative and returned. Once counter signed, a copy will be provided to the City and it may move forward to the final step. The City must prepare an application for each project location. Since there are two restrooms, one at Berry Street Park and the other at Lemon Grove Park, staff will prepare two applications and submit them to the State. After project application approval, the City may move forward with the capital outlay procurement and construction process. It is important to note that the Grant does not fund maintenance and repair but only funds capital outlay items. A definition and example of capital outlay items, maintenance and repairs are listed below:
Definition
• Capital outlay – building something new, or in regards to existing structures, activities intended to boost the condition beyond its original or current state. • Repairs – activities performed to a section of a structure that are intended to allow the continued use.
• Maintenance – activities intended to be performed on a regular basis to maintain the expected useful life of a structure.
Examples
• Roof – replacing broken shingles is maintenance; fixing a hole is repair; replacing the roof is capital outlay.
• Playground – adding additional fall material is maintenance; fixing the chains on a swing set is repair; replacing the play structures is capital outlay. • Windows – repairing the glazing is maintenance; replacing broken panes is repair; replacing the windows is capital outlay.
Assuming the applications are submitted and approved by the State by March 2022, the City will have until December 31, 2023 to complete the projects and March 31, 2024 to submit the project completion packets. By meeting the March 2024 deadline, the State will inspect the project and make final reimbursement payment by June 30, 2024.
Lastly, staff wants to highlight other key information topics from the procedural guide:
• A separate application is needed for each location.
Local Assistance Specified Grant
February 15, 2022
Page | 3
• The project should include accessibility to the bathrooms. • Ineligible grant costs include: all non-capital costs that includes recreational programming and indirect costs such as overhead for operating costs (e.g. utilities).
• Any grant funds not expended by the City will revert to the State. • The State retains the option to either cancel this contract with no liability occurring to the State, or offer a contract amendment to the City to reflect the reduced grant amount.
• The City will retain financial accounts, documents and records for five years following project termination or final payment, during which time a State audit may be performed.
• OGALS requires the City to submit progress reports every six months. • 20% of the grant award (or $80,000) will be retained by the State until the final inspection and report are submitted.
• There are no deed restrictions with this grant program and no required signage to be posted at the project site.
Environmental Review:
Not subject to review Negative Declaration
Categorical Exemption, Section Mitigated Negative Declaration Fiscal Impact: The City will receive $400,000 in grant funds that will be programmed in the City’s Capital Improvement Program for bathrooms at Berry Street and Lemon Grove Parks’ restrooms.
