CITY OF MONTEBELLO
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Arlene Salazar, Assistant City Manager
BY: Joseph Palombi, Director of Planning & Community Development
SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION NO. 23-46 APPROVING AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) COMMERCIAL
FAÇADE PROGRAM GUIDELINES
DATE: June 14, 2023
RECOMMENDATION(S):
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt Resolution No. 23-46 Approving Amendment No. 1 to Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Commercial Façade Program Guidelines and finding that the approval of Amendment No. 1 is exempt from CEQA under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines and none of the exceptions under Section 15300.2 apply; and
2. Amend the Fiscal Year 2022-23 CDBG Commercial Façade Program Guidelines to reflect the revised guidelines for the extension of time to use approved funding, maximum amount of funding per application, and applicant contribution amount; and
3. Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This action will not result in any fiscal impact since the budget for this program was previously approved as part of the Annual Action Plan for Fiscal Year 2022-23.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
On August 23, 2022, the CDBG Funded Commercial Façade Guidelines were approved by the City Council in connection with the FY 2022-23 CDBG/HOME Annual Action Plan.
The Commercial Façade program guidelines that were approved on August 23, 2022 allocated grant funds up to $10,000 for businesses along the Whitter Blvd. corridor within
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2023
the City. These guidelines also required a 30% (thirty percent) contribution of the total grant amount from applicants for the application to be accepted.
After analyzing the low number of applications and receiving direction from the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”), staff requests approval from the City Council to amend the Commercial Façade Program Guidelines as follows:
• Increase the grant amount from $10,000 to a maximum of $25,000 per business; • Decrease the required contribution from 30% to 5% per business application; • Extend the deadline to use available funds from June 30, 2023 to December 31, 2023.
The proposed amendment is intended to increase the number of applications in an effort to expend available funds associated with this project as required by HUD. Additionally, staff is requesting that the time for applicants to apply for funding under the Commercial Façade Program be extended from June 30, 2023 to December 31, 2023.
Currently, there are two applications for funding under the Commercial Façade Program that have been received by the City. These applications relate to BLVD. Market and La Paloma Grill. The pending applications will be amended to reflect any revisions to the program guidelines as a result of the City Council’s action.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
The California Environmental Quality Act (Section 2100, et. seq. of the California Public Resources Code, hereafter “CEQA”) requires analysis of agency approvals of discretionary “projects.” A “project,” under CEQA, is defined as “the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment” (State CEQA Guidelines Section 15378). The proposed Project is a project under CEQA.
Staff has reviewed the Projects to determine the required level of review under CEQA and has determined that the proposed Projects are exempt from CEQA under State CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3) (Common Sense Exemption). Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines states that an activity is covered by the commonsense exemption that CEQA only applies to projects that have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA review and none of the exceptions to the exemptions under CEQA Guidelines Section 15300.2 apply. Nevertheless, it is important to note that specific projects/programs that qualify for funding under the proposed plan may be subject to environmental review prior to implementation.

The Program will only fund projects that significantly improve the visual appearance of the whole façade of the property from the street. Design and permit fees associated with the construction are also eligible projects costs.

In 2015, the City of Montebello approved the development of up to 1,200 residential units, public parks, hiking trails, and other related amenities (the “Montebello Hills Project”). As part of the Montebello Hills Project entitlements, Sentinel was required to dedicate land for the perseveration of habitat for the California Gnatcatcher (“Habitat Reserve”).
Per the requirements of United States Fish & Wildlife Service’s (“USFWS”) and the Montebello Hills Project Specific Plan, a conservation easement is to be created establishing the Habitat Reserve area along with the establishment of an endowment fund to pay for the management and maintenance of the Habitat Reserve in perpetuity.
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2023
No development is permitted in the Habitat Reserve.
In December 2019, Sentinel granted the IOD and formally offered the Habitat Reserve land to the City, subject to the USFWS requirements that it be used for the Gnatcatcher habitat. The Habitat Reserve land is currently owned by Sentinel. At this time, the City has not accepted the IOD.
Recently, Sentinel and the Montebello Hills Project developer Toll Brothers (“Toll”) have informed the City that the USFWS have inquired as to the status and timing of the City’s decision regarding the IOD and has requested that the City formally decline or accept the IOD because the City’s decision will inform how Sentinel and Toll proceed in order to meet USFWS’s deadlines pertaining to the transfer of the Habitat Reserve land and the recordation of the conservation easement. Should the City reject the IOD, Sentinel and Toll have already identified qualified, non-profit, public benefit organizations to serve as (i) the owner of Habitat Reserve and land manager and (ii) the grantee to the conservation easement.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
The vacation and termination of the IOD is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) under the CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), the common sense exemption, in that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that it may have a significant effect on the environment.
ANALYSIS:
City staff in consultation with the City Attorney’s Office recommend that the City reject and vacate the IOD. Specifically, staff’s concerns with accepting the IOD are as follows:
• The Habitat Reserve area is located in an active oil field and has been the site for petroleum uses for decades. The full extent of the environmental conditions are difficult to know at this time. By accepting the IOD, the City would become the legal owner of the Habitat Reserve land and would be strictly liable under state and federal environmental laws for the cost of any potential remediation, if necessary.
• Notwithstanding this year’s higher rain totals, the long-term trend in Southern California is increasingly dry weather. The owner of the Habitat Reserve land could be legally liable for future wildfires along with costs and expenses for ongoing fire mitigation.
• Although an endowment fund will be established to maintain the Habitat Reserve, there remains the possibility that Habitat Reserve maintenance costs could exceed the available endowment fund revenues in the future, which would directly impact the City's General Fund by introducing a new, ongoing maintenance expense..
For the reasons listed above, City staff recommends the City Council reject, vacate, and terminate the IOD to allow Sentinel and Toll to select qualified non-profit, public benefit
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2023
organizations to serve as (i) the owner of Habitat Reserve and land manager and (ii) the grantee to the conservation easement.
To formally reject/decline the IOD, the City is required to vacate the IOD in accordance with the procedure set forth by Government Code section 7050 and Street and Highway Code section 8335. Under Government Code section 7050, the City may decline and terminate the IOD in the same manner as a summary vacation under section 8335 of the Street and Highway Code. Under section 8335, the City Council shall adopt a resolution of vacating and terminating the IOD. Following its adoption, a certified copy of the resolution shall be recorded in the County Recorder’s Office to complete the vacation of the IOD.
SUMMARY:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached Resolution vacating and thereby terminating the IOD for the Habitat Reserve at the Montebello Hills Project site pursuant to Government Code section 7050 and Street and Highway Code section 8335.

SECTION V: DIAGRAM
A Diagram showing the Assessor’s parcel number and the dimensions of each lot or parcel of land within the District is on file in the Office of the City Clerk.
SECTION VI: ASSESSMENT
The improvements are to be funded by the levying of assessments on the benefiting properties. The “Municipal Improvement Act of 1913” and Article XIIID of the State Constitution require that assessments must be based on the estimated special benefit for the properties from the improvements. In addition, Article XIIID, Section 4, of the State Constitution requires that a parcel’s assessment ma y not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred in the p arcel. It also requires that publicly owned property, (which benefit from the improvements) are to be assessed. Neither the Act nor the State Constitution specifies the method or formula that should be used to apportion the costs to properties in any special as sessment district proceedings. The responsibility for recommending the assessments per panel is an Apportionment Engineer, who is appointed for the purpose of makin g an analysis of the facts and determining the correct apportionment of the assess ment obligation. The City Engineer is hereby appointed as the Assessment Engineer.
4 All properties are assessed based on the Engineer’s Estimate. This estimate includes associated costs for each property based on property frontage along the street (Natasha Lane).
In order to apportion the assessment to each parcel in direct proportion with the special and direct benefit which it will receive from the i mprovements, an analysis has been completed and the respective street frontage of eac h benefiting parcel is used as the basis for apportioning costs to each property within the Assessment District as follows:

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2023
Natasha Lane is a twenty-unit housing development, extending to the south from Whittier Boulevard and to the east of Bluff Road. As part of the development, new landscaping was installed within a storm drain easement at the southerly terminus, along frontage of the property facing Whittier Boulevard and along the rear portion of the property. The City is responsible for the maintenance of landscaping in these areas.
The properties of this development benefiting from these improvements were assessed in FY 2022-23 and prior years. Continued assessment of the properties benefitting from these improvements is being proposed to offset the cost of maintenance and future replacement of the system. The attached Resolution (Attachment A) establishes approval of the Engineer’s Report for Natasha Lane Landscape Assessment District No. 2005-1 and provides notice of the required public hearing concerning the levy of the proposed assessments.

SECTION V: DIAGRAM
A Diagram showing the Assessor’s parcel number and the dimensions of each lot or parcel of land within the District is on file in the Office of the City Clerk.
SECTION VI: ASSESSMENT
The improvements are to be funded by the levying of assessments on the benefiting properties. The “Municipal Improvement Act of 1913” and Article XIIID of the State Constitution require that assessments must be based on the estimated special benefit for the properties from the improvements. In addit ion, Article XIIID, Section 4, of the State Constitution requires that a parcel’s assessm ent may not exceed the reasonable cost of the proportional special benefit conferred in the parcel. It also requires that publicly owned property, (which benefit from the im provements) are to be assessed.
Neither the Act nor the State Constitution specifies the method or formula that should be used to apportion the costs to properties in any special assessment district proceedings.
The responsibility for recommending the assessments per panel is an Apportionment Engineer, who is appointed for the purpose of makin g an analysis of the facts and determining the correct apportionment of the assess ment obligation The City Engineer is hereby appointed as the Apportionment Engineer.
4 All properties are assessed based on the Engineer’s Estimate. This estimate includes associated costs for each property based on propert y frontage along the street (Natasha Lane).
In order to apportion the assessment to each parcel in direct proportion with the special and direct benefit which it will receive from the i mprovements, an analysis has been completed and the respective street frontage of eac h benefiting parcel is used as the basis for apportioning costs to each property within the Assessment District as follows:

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Arlene Salazar, Assistant City Manager
BY: James Enriquez, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: MONTEBELLO MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSE RENOVATION PROJECT (CP NO. 894) – ARTIFICIAL TURF PURCHASE ORDER
DATE: June 14, 2023
RECOMMENDATION(S):
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. By a four-fifths vote of the City Council authorize the dispensing of a formal bidding procedure for the purchase of artificial turf material for the Montebello Municipal Golf Course Renovation Project (CP No. 894), in accordance with Montebello Municipal Code Chapter 3.20.050; and
2. Approve a Purchase Order with TrueTurf LLC in the amount not-to-exceed $76,176 for the artificial turf and authorize the City Manager to execute the Purchase Order; and
3. Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The previously authorized budget for the subject project includes funding for the proposed purchase order. No additional appropriations are recommended at this time.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The Montebello Municipal Golf Course Renovation Project (“Project”) proposes to renovate a portion of the existing Montebello Municipal Golf Course property located south of Via Campo and northwest of Via San Clemente. The Project area is approximately 72.5 acres of the original golf course campus. The Project will replace the existing 18-hole golf course with a new and modern first-class championship golf course complex that will complement the adjacent Topgolf facility and existing hotels and Quiet Cannon event center. The project will include a new 9-hole championship golf course
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2023
with a new club house and putting green complex and a new 6-hole (9-hole at night) Par 3 golf course with lights.
The construction of the Golf Course Renovation Project is phased as follows:
• Phase 1 – Golf course rough site work construction (Civil Contractor) including rough grading, underground and utilities construction, pavement and concrete flatwork (Construction commenced November 2022);
• Phase 2 – Golf course construction (Golf Course Contractor) including finished grading, construction of golf course features (i.e. tee boxes, fairways, greens and sand traps), turf and landscaping (Construction commenced December 2022); and
• Phase 3 – Clubhouse construction (Notice Inviting Bids issued 6/1/2023).
The recommended purchase order with TrueTurf LLC is for the purchase of artificial turf material for outdoor event lawns that are part of Phase 3 of the project. The artificial turf material will be purchased by the City and provided to the contractor for installation.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
N/A
ANALYSIS:
Although the recommendation is for a sole-sourced purchase dispensing with formal bidding procedures in accordance MCC 3.20.050 with a four-fifths vote of the City Council, staff did informally contact multiple vendors and TrueTurf LLC provided the lowest price for the amount of turf required, that also met the project specifications and accelerated schedule. The event lawn is located immediately adjacent to the Quiet Cannon and will be the first item of work completed for Phase 3. Its unfinished condition continues to negatively impact the booking of events for the Quiet Cannon. The recommended purchase order will ensure the material is delivered prior to the anticipated Notice to Proceed (NTP) for the Phase 3 contractor, enabling the work to be completed in a timely manner. If the material is ordered after the NTP, completion of the event lawn will be delayed by an additional 3 months, at a minimum.
SUMMARY:
Upon approval by the City Council of the recommended actions, staff will execute the purchase order with TrueTurf LLC in order to schedule delivery of the material.

ITEM # 26
CITY OF MONTEBELLO
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA STAFF REPORT
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Arlene Salazar, Assistant City Manager
BY: Fernando Pelaez, Fire Chief
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION TO ISSUE A REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP NO. 23-13) FOR A MEDICAL DIRECTOR – EMERGENCY MEDICAL
SERVICES PROGRAM
DATE: June 14, 2023
RECOMMENDATION(S):
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Authorize issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 23-13 for a Medical Director – Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Program; and
2. Authorize payment of invoices from Dr. Angelica Loza-Gomez for medical director services in an amount not to exceed $40,000; and
3. Authorize the use of up to $20,000 for additional medical director services;
4. Take such additional, related action that may be desirable.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Issuing an RFP for this service does not have a direct cost associated. At this point, the exact cost of services is unknown. Once the selection process is complete, staff will return to the City Council requesting approval of a professional services agreement per the Montebello Code Chapter 3.20 – Purchasing System guidelines. If necessary, any budget amendments will be made depending on the total cost of the services procured through the RFP process.
Staff requests authorization to pay outstanding invoices from Dr. Angelica Loza-Gomez (Dr. Loza-Gomez) totaling $ $38,271. The adopted Fiscal Year 2022 – 23 budget includes $40,000 in Account No. 100-85-860-6040.10 (General Fund, Fire, Suppression, Contract Services- Outside Contracts) for Medical Director services as mandated by the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. Funds from the account will be used to pay the outstanding invoices in the current fiscal year .
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT - MEETING OF JUNE 14, 2023
Furthermore, City Council is requested to authorize the use of $20,000 during Fiscal Year 2023-24 for Medical Director services from Dr. Loza-Gomez while the RFP process is completed. It is anticipated that a new agreement will be established no later than the end of September 2023. If approved, funds will be budgeted as part of the annual budget process in the previously mentioned account.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The Fire Department is an all-risk, all-hazard municipal Department that responds to fire, rescue, emergency medical, and hazardous materials for its community and neighboring agencies. During Calendar Year 2022, the Department responded to approximately 8,400 calls for service, of which 74 percent were Emergency Medical Services (EMS) related calls.
For the Department to provide these services, it must be compliant with regulations set forth by the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services. Reference Number 411, Provider Agency Medical Director requires services that enhance the quality of prehospital care by providing medical expertise in EMS and serves as a liaison between the EMS Agency Medical Director, hospitals, and other Provider Agency Medical Directors to ensure the delivery of safe and effective medical care. To provide this service, the Department contracts the services of a licensed medical professional. The most recent agreement for this service has terminated, and a RFP is required to identify a consultant.
While planning and developing the RFP, the Department continued to use the services of Dr. Loza-Gomez to serve as medical director. As a result, invoices totaling $38,271 have been accumulated and require payment. Furthermore, it is requested that City Council authorize the continued use of Dr. Loza-Gomez while the RFP process is completed. Allowing continued use will ensure the City can provide safe and compliant emergency medical services and reduce liability. It is anticipated that the RFP process will be completed by no later than September 30, 2023.
ENVIRONMENTAL:
This item is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to the State CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, sections:
15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment); 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378); and 15061(b)(3), because the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Because there is no possibility that this item may have a significant adverse effect on the environment, the item is exempt from CEQA.

[External Email] Corruption at the Montebello Police Department Follow Up Flag: Follow up
Flag Status: Flagged
The Montebello Police Department has a long hist ory of corruption and failed leadership. The Department and the city are currently being sued by multiple female o fficers for institutional sexism, mistreatment of women, and viol ation of basic Department Poli cy and City rules and regulations regarding employees. Below are several examples of the type of corruption that not only has gone on, but continues to go on at the Montebello Police Department:
A married male Montebello Police Officer (Der ek Crenshaw) and female officer (Jessica Rodriguez) engage in a dating relationship that causes several disruptions at work. Despite the obviously conflict of interests, supervision and management did nothing. As the relationship soured, the male officer began to cause problems for the female officer at work. When she took it to management, The male officer (who’s dad was retired LAPD) was warned to leave her alone yet the department allowed them to resume working together.
A short time later the female officer files a second report alleging that the male officer attempted to break into her home during an argument. An investigation was conducted and the male officer was demoted from Corporal to officer and brought back to work after committing a crime. The Montebello Police Officer Association president (w ho is supposed to act in the best interest o f all members (including the female officer vict im) acted as a character witness on this male officers behalf to help him retain his job with the city of Montebello.
Brad Keller, the chief at the time places the female officer (Jessica Rodriguez) into the detective bureau after explaining to her he was bringing the male officer back and gives her a take home car in an attempt from keeping her from complaining and filing a law suit. Jessica Rodriguez did not and does not have the qualificat ions to be a detective nor did any of the supervisors select her to be in the bureau. Jessica Rodriguez is a mediocre at best officer with a poor attitude and a history of poor judgement and decision making. She was given that position to keep her from suing the Police Department due to their failure of management.
While in the detective bureau Jessica Rodriguez was allowed to do whatever she wanted (again, in hopes that she wouldn’t sue the department). She regularly spent time drinking coffee and lounging in the dispatch center when she should have been handling her work load. But to avoid her suing the department, no actions were taken. Why the dispatch supervisor did nothing to prevent this from occurring daily only further hi nts to the corruption at the department and how deep it goes.
2 The last corporal promotions were another example of the departments corrupt nature and inability to manage itself. The testing process is completely irrelevant to the work the Officers in Montebello do. It contains tactics performed on the East coast that are against Montebello policy.
The test was selected and reviewed by Capt ain Zeissig (former LAPD) and despite its irrelevance was used anyways. It’s clear the test didn’t matter and wasn’t contemporary and not selected to actually find the best future leaders of the Montebello Police Department but instead to allow a corrupt police management to select whoever they want to continue the cycle.
Because of the mass exodus of officers due to corruption from the top down, this past year the Montebello Police Departm ent had six openings for corpor al. After position openings were announced and officers began testing officer Rodri guez did not have a high enough evaluation score (6.5 is required) to te st. But Montebello PD needed a female in a supervisory position to show they don’t discriminate against females with all three of their upcoming law suits. Further, they couldn’t afford to have her sue the department as well. To avoid this problem, the Montebello management went back to their corrupt ways, Lieutenant Ray Camuy (former LAPD), Sergeant Omar Rodriguez and Captain Zeissig (f ormer LAPD) took it upon themselves to not only change her evaluation score, the date and get it in to qualify her to test but they called her and told her that the captain approved of the change and she was good to test. Never in the history of giving evaluations to officers do you call officers to tell them their score and an updated evaluation was turned in so they could test. It’s a clear example of the corrupt nature of the police management.
Despite both Officer Crenshaw and Officer Rodriguez poor judgement and continual poo r behavior, stats, and integrity they were both promoted.
The clear example of the level of corruption can be seen when you realize that all the Captains, Lieutenants, and Sergeants allowed for the promotions of both Derek Crenshaw and Jessica Rodriguez knowing that they are both a poor example of what supervision represents and have shown not worthy of rank in the organization. T he problem is the administration is complicit on covering up the blatant mistreatment of women that they have not on ly promoted these two officers they have allowed them to work t ogether on the same patro l team (because prio r administration failed to make them sign an agreement) leading to what will be more problems for all of us here.
So now thanks to a corrupt management with a failed testing process the Montebello Police Department has six newly promoted corporals who are not qualified, and work under a group of failing sergeants who fall under a group of mute lieutenants who don’t have the fortitude to stand up against a corrupt management.
Over the past few years, seve ral Montebello Police Officers have sent letters to Human Resources begging for help, reporting misconduct, and asking for clarification on department matters. For years these letters have gone unanswered, unresolved and HR had been unbothered by them. Not only is this a violation of both city and department policy but the city’s own attorney stood up and said during a live council meeting that it is “unamerican not to respond to complaints”. So that begs the question, what complaints do they take serious at the City o f
Montebello? A perfect example of this is Sergeant Sergio Andrade. He has been making officers lives miserable for years while employed there. Multiple complaints have been filed agains him, he is even named in current law suits.
However, a male officer who has a “ close pers onal relationship” with an HR employee filed a complaint on him and it was immediately addressed.
3 This officer should have been fired years ago for hi s behavior and his comments but instead of taking the time to address the complaints the department promoted him and quickly retired him to avoid having to do the right thing. This is just like the issue of former Montebello Poli ce Officer Chris Cervantes (former LAPD). Cervantes was arrested multiple time s, with each arrest came a promotion, and then when he was showing up under the influence to work he was quickly retired instead of fired.
So while the arrestees and the corrupt ma les flourished under management, the hard working females and the level headed officers were forc ed out or passed over. All the while, Police Management was in bed with the association president to help cover things up. The Association President stood by as officers were sabotaged while trying to lateral, ignored while pleading for help, and unfairly denied exemptions and terminated.
Multiple supervisors (sworn and non sworn) hav e witnessed these behaviors and have even been to HR with officers while attempting to file complaints. They were all required to act and they failed. The Montebello Police Department is currently facing many lawsui ts regarding the corrupt management and the history of mistreatment of women in the workplace. At what point is Police Management, Human Resources, the City Manager, or City Council going to do their job and actually investigate and stop the history of corruption that exists and breeds at the Montebello Police Department.

Fwd: [External Email] FAA’s Noise Policy Review; MONTEBELLO REPRESENTATION Follow Up Flag: Follow up
Flag Status: Flagged
Dear Mayor and Council Members and Montebello Staff;
I am in receipt of this notice today.
I think it's important for the City to be represented here. Montebello suffers from far too many aircraft and non-emergency helicopter incursions.
A simple download of Flight Radar data shows that we experience far more noise and flyovers than Westside Communities. This is neither equitable nor appropriate. The East side of Los Angeles County routinely gets dumped on - literally and figuratively.
I would appreciate if this were elevated to the Council agenda or at minimum, City representation on these Federal calls. I'm not clear on who that should be...thanks in advance.
Best regards, Bill Moreno

If and how alternative noise metrics may be used in lieu of or in addition to DNL to better inform agency decisions and improve FAA’s disclosure of noise impacts. The community’s understanding of noise impacts and how to better manage and respond to community’s aviation noise concerns.
Ways to improve communications on proposed noise-related agency actions. The findings from ongoing noise research, including the Neighborhood Environmental Survey and other research related to health impacts, speech interference, sleep disturbance, and economic impacts.
You can get involved with the NPR by submitting your comments to the FRN and/or attending one of our virtual webinars. The webinars will be held May 16, 18, 23 and 25 on Zoom.

Follow Up Flag: Follow up
Flag Status: Flagged
To whom it may concern, I was born and raised in Montebello (Southside) on Greenwood Ave between Date St and Oakwood throughout the late seventies, eighties I was there seeing the crumbling of Greenwood Ave. Gangs, drugs and violence took over I graduated from MHS in 1989 and left to the military my family remained and still resides there my mom is a widow that lives in a house on Date St and Greenwood I visit her everyday to check on her I’m employed as a Deputy Sheriff for the County of Los Angeles and for many years I have made numerous calls and messages to the city about the poor lighting on that street until recently street sweeping has resumed but for many years the sweeper was unable to sweep due to increased volume of parked cars, I was told parking enforcement didn’t have the manpower to issue citations so it was left to us to sweep our street. Until recently I have been witnessing transients, RV’s and trash across the street from my mother’s house and the adjacent residents. It just seems like always that the city forgets about there residents on that particular part of the city, you have cars and semi trucks traveling at a high rate of speed with no caution at all and then yesterday 06/02/23 a collision occurred that resulting in a vehicle plowing into the corner market! Back in the the 90s we had a police substation in the Greenwood Plaza and things got stable for a while because of the police presence now there’s graffiti every day trash everywhere it’s just dam sad how it’s deteriorating. All I’m asking in behalf of the residents of Greenwood and Date street is to acknowledge and fix the problems that are so present.
Thank you.
