69 Appendix K: Glossary of Terms and Basic information
Glossary of Terms and Basic information
The following glossary of terms is designed to give a basic overview of common elements of access within the Americans with Disabilities Act, Title II, and California State law. For more specific information concerning the terms described below please review 28 CFR 35 and the California Government Code 12926.
Definition of Disability:
Under California State law, Government Code Section 12926, a person with a disability is: 1) A person having a physical or mental impairment that limits a major life activity.
This limitation must be considered in the unmitigated status. This means that the determination of whether the limitation exists would be considered in terms of how the individual would function without the use of medication, personal devices or habits that have been formed to mitigate the disability. 2). or, A person who has a record of a disability, such as described in number one. 3). or, A person who is regarded as having a disability, such as described in number one.
Note: This is an abridged definition of disability under California State law. For further information, please see California Government Code 12926. The California definition of disability is being used, as it is more stringent than the definition found under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 or the Americans with Disabilities Amendments Act of 2008.
Qualified Person with a Disability
A qualified person with a disability has a disability as described above and is qualified to receive the programs, services, or activities of the entity in question.
Self-Evaluation
A comprehensive evaluation of all programs, services, and activities to ensure that access for qualified persons with disabilities is in place. The Self-Evaluation must be vetted with interested stakeholders. The Self-Evaluation was due in 1993.
Transition Plan
A physical access evaluation of all sites from which programs, services and activities are provided. The Transition Plan contains four parts: 1. A list of physical barriers; 2. A statement of method to be utilized for mitigation of barriers; 3. A statement regarding the schedule of barrier mitigation; and, 4. The designation of an official who is responsible for the administration of the Transition Plan. The Transition Plan was due in 1992. The Transition Plan must be vetted with interested stakeholders.
70 Note: The intent was to create access within facilities that were online in 1992 and that new construction or remodels would be accessible.
Program Access
A designated alternative manner in providing programs, services and activities in order to ensure that appropriate access is in place. For example, accessible meeting space may be secured on the ground floor of the building to hold meetings with people who have mobility impairments, who are not able to go to the second floor because of the absence of an elevator.
ADA Grievance Procedure
A grievance process that is published and capable of addressing issues that may arise from access policies that impact the delivery of programs, services and activities. The grievance procedure must be widely disseminated, offer a second level review, notify the grievant of the outcome, state the ADA Coordinator's name and contact information and offer assistance to a person with a disability who may not be able to complete the grievance document independently due to their disability.
Notice of ADA Compliance
Notice of ADA Compliance is a widely disseminated notice that provides information concerning the elements of ADA compliance that the entity has in place. It is recommended that the Notice of ADA compliance be accompanied by a dissemination plan.
ADA Coordinator
This position is required for state and local government entities that have 50 or more employees. Initially, the position was envisioned to coordinate the grievance process.
The national trend is that this position is now used to coordinate a variety of matters relative to ADA implementation and administration. Caution must be exercised concerning an appropriate separation of duties. It is inappropriate to have the ADA Coordinator engaged in both providing reasonable accommodations through the interactive process, and investigating issues concerning the accommodations that have been provided or denied.
Direct Threat
Direct threat is a significant risk of substantial harm that cannot be mitigated through policy modification or reasonable accommodation. The danger must be real and not speculative or remote.
Policy Modification Request and Fundamental Alteration
A qualified person with a disability may request that an entity modify its policies to create an appropriate level of access. A system must be in place for entertaining these requests and determining whether said request would result in a fundamental alteration of the programs, services and activities impacted. Should there be an inability to grant the initial request, other measures must be considered if available, to address the
71 access issue in question. Should it be determined that the request results in the fundamental alteration, a senior official should expeditiously sign off on the determination.
Auxiliary Aids and Services
These are measures provided to ensure that appropriate access to programs and services and activities is in place upon request. Auxiliary aids and services include, but are not limited to, providing documents in an alternative format such as Braille, providing sign language interpreting services, note takers, real-time captioning services or assistive listening devices.
Video Remote Interpreting (VRI)
VRI is permitted in the 2010 Title II ADA regulations. It provides a system in which sign language interpreting can be conducted via video with the interpreter offsite. Caution needs to be exercised to ensure that the technical quality of the system is sufficient to appropriately transmit the information being communicated.
California Relay Service
The California Relay Service was created by ADA, Title IV. It is a free service to facilitate effective telephone communication between persons who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing and persons who are hearing. This is done via a relay operator who uses both a teletype device and a telephone. The California Relay service may be reached at 711.
Note: Some entities have chosen to include “California Relay Service 711” on business cards and letterheads to facilitate communication.
Reasonable Accommodation
Reasonable accommodation technically refers to the employment relationship. It is an adjustment that provides the employee or applicant an opportunity to participate in: the performance of essential functions of the job, the selection process or to receive benefits and privileges offered to other employees in the work situation. Reasonable accommodation solutions often vary widely. Accommodation requests must be handled through an "interactive process".
Interactive Process:
The interactive process is required in the state law and federal case law, yet neither defines it clearly. Problems have occurred when disputes have arisen and the employer has not clearly documented the interactive process. For that reason, the following steps are recommended:
1. The employer becomes aware that there is a disability that impacts elements of the employment relationship.
2. The employer and employee/applicant meet to discuss the barrier in question and potential resolutions. In this stage needed data is gathered from medical providers, consultants or the Jobs Accommodation Network.
3. After giving primary consideration to what the employee/applicant is requesting, the employer makes a prompt decision regarding what effective accommodation will be provided. Or, if the accommodation in question would result in an undue hardship the
72 employer is not obligated to provide said accommodation.
4. The employer promptly implements the reasonable accommodation.
5. The employer initiates follow-up discussions with the recipient of reasonable accommodation to ensure that the accommodation was, in fact, effective.
Note: The reasonable accommodation process is ongoing and may need to be revisited at any point in the employment relationship, as disabilities and technology may change.
Medical Inquiry
Medical inquiry is the acquisition of pertinent medical information to determine whether a bona fide legal disability exists and what limitations it may present that necessitates a reasonable accommodation. Medical inquiry should be limited in scope. Data related to genetic characteristics should not be solicited, obtained or retained. Medical information may not be lawfully stored in an employee's personnel file.
Undue Hardship
An undue hardship would be the provision of a reasonable accommodation that is extensive, disruptive, fundamentally alters the nature of the program or is unduly expensive. It is important to note that the expense issue is extremely difficult for a state or local government entity to use as a defense. In doing so, one would need to consider the total budget of the entity in question.
Service Animal
A service animal is a dog or miniature horse that has specifically been trained to perform tasks for a person with a disability that they are not able to perform for themselves due to their disability.
Note: This is a subject that generates the highest number of complaints received by the US Department of Justice.
Maintenance of Accessible Features Policy
This relates to the requirement set by 28 CFR 35.133 in which an entity must maintain accessible features. Policy and procedure in this area is designed to give staff guidance unifying, repairing or reporting issues within access elements on sites where programs, services and activities are conducted.

Zoning: PRD (Planned Residential Development)
Location: Northwest corner of Bastanchury Road and Lakeview Avenue Tract 16595 is a 47 single-family, estate home-sized community located on the northwest corner of Bastanchury Road and Lakeview Avenue, in District II of the West Bastanchury Planned Residential Development (see Attachment 1 – Vicinity Map).
Toll Brothers, Inc. purchased Tract No. 16595 from Bastanchury Holding Company in 2017 and replaced the Tract’s cash securities with surety bonds that were accepted by City Council on July 21, 2020. The Subdivision Improvement Agreement with Toll Brothers, Inc. required surety bonds for Grading, Off-site and On-site Improvements, and Monumentation.
Per Section 17.16.040 of the City’s Municipal Code, upon request by the Developer, the City may release the security in conjunction with the performance of work as it progresses.
Municipal Code Section 17.16.040 and the Subdivision Map Act require the posting of security to ensure completion of improvements in conformance with the subdivision improvement agreement, accepted improvement plans, Resolution 2004-3698, and to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Toll Brothers, Inc. (Developer) has completed the improvements for acceptance and the proposed surety release amounts as summarized in Table 1.
DISCUSSION
Previous bond release amounts were authorized by City Council on April 18, 2023 for Offsite Improvements, Grading, On-site Improvements, and Monumentation Bonds on Tract 16595.
Public Works performed final inspections and has determined that the On-site work, including the equestrian trail improvements, have been completed in accordance with the accepted plans and conditions of approval. The trail was re-graded with site restoration to the satisfaction of the City Engineer and Landscape Maintenance Assessment District. The equestrian trail easement was dedicated to the City on the original Tract 16595 Map (see Attachment 3), but was not accepted at the time until its completion. Staff is recommending the release of the On-site Improvement Bonds for 90 percent of the original amount and acceptance of the trail easement into the City’s public infrastructure (see Attachment 2).
Monumentation and survey documentation have been accepted and recorded by the County of Orange. Staff is further recommending the release of the Monumentation Bond for 100 percent of the original amount.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact from releasing the developer-provided sureties as listed above.
ALTERNATIVES
Council may direct staff to not release the project sureties and not accept the trail easement.
This alternative is not recommended as the majority of work performed was found to be in substantial compliance with the terms of the subdivision improvement agreement, conditions of approval, and the accepted improvement plans. The trail is being used for public access and connectivity to the City’s trail system.

Quick Tips
Pantry Pests
Pantry pests are insects such as certain
moths or beetles that can attack almost
any kind of stored food, from spices to
cereal to chocolate.
Pantry pests usually enter
your home in an infested
package of food. You
might not notice these
small insects until you see
moths flying around your
kitchen or beetles crawling
in your food. Get rid of
these pests by removing
infested food, tightly sealing stored dry food, and thoroughly cleaning the area.
Adult Indianmeal moth.
Jack Kelly Clark, UCIPM.
Types of pantry pests and their damage.
• The Indianmeal moth is the most common moth found
on food products in the home.
• Several species of beetles, including the warehouse beetle, the sawtoothed grain beetle, the red flour beetle, and the cigarette beetle, commonly attack a variety of foods.
• Infested food can be contaminated with insect hairs, droppings, webbing, and secretions. • Food contaminated with warehouse beetle hairs can irritate your mouth, esophagus, and digestive tract. • Pantry pests can introduce microbes that rot food, especially in warm, humid conditions.
Detecting pantry pests.
• Adult moths or beetles are usually easier to spot than the larvae.
• Inspect all packages, especially those that have been opened. • Webbing in tight places of a package or tiny holes in a food container are signs of a pantry pest infestation.
• Use a pheromone trap labeled for pantry pests to detect them.
• By the time you spot a pantry pest, it has usually spread to other food packages.
Preventing a pantry pest infestation.
• Store food in containers with tight-fitting lids, not plastic bags.
• Store bulk goods like pet food
in airtight containers.
• Keep certain infrequently used
food like flours, spices, and
grains in a freezer if possible.
• Wash old containers before
filling them with new food.
• Don’t mix old and new food
together.
• Clean shelves, bins, and other
food storage areas regularly. Adult red flour beetle.
Jack Kelly Clark, UCIPM.
Cleaning up a pantry pest infestation.
• Throw away any food that has even the slightest evidence of infestation.
• Vacuum corners and crevices of cupboards to get rid of eggs and pupae, and wash shelves with soap and water.
• Pantry pests are capable of living for many weeks without food; continue using pheromone traps to detect pests after the source of the infestation has been removed.
What about pesticides?
• Insecticides are not recommended for controlling any
pantry pests.
• Spraying pesticides on or near food may cause greater harm to you and your family than would pantry pests.
• Even if you have a large infestation of pantry pests, removing infested material and following the guidelines above will provide effective control.
What you do in your home and landscape
affects our water and health.
• Minimize the use of pesticides that pollute our waterways and harm human health.
• Use nonchemical alternatives or less toxic pesticide products whenever possible. • Read product labels carefully and follow instructions on proper use, storage, and disposal.

PANTRY MOTH VS. CLOTHES MOTH: 9 KEY
DIFFERENCES
WRITTEN BY CRYSTAL, A-Z ANIMALS
PUBLISHED: NOVEMBER 26, 2023
1. Pantry Moths Prefer Warmer Weather
Flour Moth, Pantry Moth (Ephestia kuehniella)
Warm spring weather increases the chance of pantry moth infestations.
©Jurik Peter/Shutterstock.com
Both moths can be active year-round, however, pantry moths prefer warmer weather. It’s more likely pantry moths will show up during late spring and summer. Along with their seasonal preferences, pantry moths also like to sleep in. During the day these moths can be found resting. If you’re dealing with an infestation, look up at the ceiling for evidence of resting moths. By sunset, pantry moths are active, so it’ll be easy to spot them moving around.
2. Clothes Moths Are More Difficult to Spot
Most homeowners don’t realize they have clothes moths until they step into their closet and see the infestation.
This is because these small moths prefer staying in one place, which can make detecting an infestation a bit tricky. Pantry moths, on the other hand, are much easier to spot because they’re active. If there’s a pantry moth infestation the insects will be seen flying from one food source to the next.
3. Air-Tight Containers Deter Pantry Moths
Neatly organized and labeled baking ingredients in BPA-free plastic storage containers Containers with tight-fitting lids are the most effective in preventing pantry moth infestations.
To keep pantry moths away use airtight containers, these can be glass or plastic. What matters most is that the lid fits securely. If it’s a plastic container it needs to be a high-grade plastic. Pantry moths are notorious for chewing through plastic and cardboard. You’ll also want to avoid using containers that have twist-on lids. Pantry moths sometimes lay their eggs on lid jars, and they’re not as air-tight as you might think.
Finally, no matter how severe the infestation is, you’ll have to do some cleaning. Completely clean out your pantry. Take all of the food out and throw away anything that’s not properly sealed. Be sure to throw away the food outside, otherwise, the moth larvae will find their way back to the pantry.
Laboratory Report, December 21, 2023 Attachment No. 2
4. Doing Laundry Helps Prevent Clothes Moths
Doing laundry helps prevent clothes moth infestations from happening again. Clothes moths are attracted to the smell of sweat found on dirty clothes. So cleaning the clothes helps discourage the moths from coming back.
Another incentive is to rid clothing of any eggs or larvae that might be hiding on them.
After everything’s been laundered, it’s time to store clothing in air-tight containers. If you plan on using mothballs, review the latest mothball tips and safety advice. Mothballs contain naphthalene and sometimes paradichlorobenzene, both of which can be hazardous when used incorrectly. Finally, if you have furs, reach out to a department store or furrier to ask about any cold-vault storage services they offer.
5. Pantry Moths Cause Food Loss
The biggest problem with pantry moths is that they ruin otherwise good food. Females lay anywhere from 100 to 300 eggs near a food source. The larvae then attack the food sources, chewing through any plastic or cardboard that’s in their way. The moth larvae prefer feeding on dry ingredients. The only containers they can’t get through are air-tight containers and canned foods.
6. Clothes Moths Hate the Light

©Thomas Kleidysz/Shutterstock.com
Not all moths are attracted to the light. Clothes moths hate the light, so they’re almost never seen on the move. Instead, these insects prefer to stay in one comfy dark spot.
Clothes moths only move when they absolutely have to, which isn’t very often. Pantry moths, on the other hand, have to fly from one spot to the next in constant search of food. Overall, if a moth is flying around, it’s probably a pantry moth.
7. Pantry Moths Are Usually Slightly Smaller
Pantry moth vs. clothes moth; who’s bigger? Both insects are similarly sized, but the pantry moth is slightly smaller. Clothes moths are usually ½ inch long, while pantry moths tend to be around ⅕ inch long, with an ⅝ inch wingspan.
Laboratory Report, December 21, 2023 Attachment No. 2
Pantry moths usually has a gray/bronze color on their bottom half, with a gray-yellow top half. The outer wings sometimes have a red-brown hue, while the other wings are more gray. While these wing colorations and patterns are the norms, they’re not always the case. A pantry moth’s wing pattern can change depending on the season and environment.
8. Clothes Moths Are More Beige
If you’re seeing little beige moths flying around, it’s probably clothes moths. Clothes moths are more beige colored than pantry moths, but it’s a subtle difference. They’ve also been described as having a light-brown, yellow color, also known as being buff. Depending on the species, clothes moths can even be brown.
9. Clothes Moths Cause Property Damage
Adult clothes moths don’t eat at all, but the larvae are another story. Clothes moth larvae love eating materials such as silk, feathers, keratin, and wool. In some cases, the moths also feed on carpets and wall insulation.
Depending on what they feed on, a single infestation can cause thousands of dollars in damage. Things can be particularly expensive with clothes moths too because they’re discrete so infestations go unnoticed for a long time. By the time someone realizes they have clothes moths, there’s a lot of damage has likely been done already.

Ordinance No. 2009-928, adopted on March 17, 2009, states in part that the first Tuesday of each December the Mayor shall ask Council Members to state whether they are available and desire to serve a particular entity on the list of regional organizations, agencies, or committees. The Ordinance further states that the Mayor shall then consider the experience, special skills and workload of each Council Member and prepare written recommendations for presentation as a staff report at the next regular City Council meeting.
The appointments shall be affirmed by a majority vote of the City Council.
The following agencies pay a stipend or otherwise provide a financial benefit to the appointee: Orange County Fire Authority, Orange County Mosquito and Vector Control District and Transportation Corridor Agency. After Council appointments are confirmed, staff will file Form 806 on the City’s website, reporting the compensation paid by these agencies.
