How MUCH?

How Much did the GT Partners already Cost the City of Grand Terrace?

How Much did the City Spend on the Flawed and Court Reversed Outdoor Adventure Center?

How Much did the City Spend trying to Defend the Flawed Outdoor Adventure Center?

Council Member Miller has asked for this information to be compiled including the use of the City Staff, and City Legal Advisers. However this information was not made available to the Public.

Why when the Court Reversed "All Approvals" related to the OAC it did not include the "Exclusive Agreement" with GT Painters?, all code and zone changes and so forth related to the area?

How Much of the Design and Documentation will be done by the Part Time Employer of the Planning Departments own Employees, who are also related to GT Partners, LLC. Isn't this not only double dipping but a Conflict of Interest?

How much will the "NEW" Proposal Really cost the Citizens including Added Crime, Traffic, and If there is a LOWES as Mayor Farre pines for, Day Labor Camps, and the Storage and Distribution of Hazardous Materials in an area that is a watershed to the Santa Anna River System.

How much will be needed before some Agency or Lawyer or some Government Official with the Power to Investigate the Real Finances, the Real Conflicts of Interest, and Real Sustainability of any of the Schwab RDA Proposed Developments.

How much has Terra Loma and Gene Carlstrom been paid from the year 2000 to current in the various transactions with the RDA. How many of these opportunities were offered by competitive bids or RFP's (Request for Proposals)?

How Much Must WE TAKE?

IF we want to be run like Fontana and Colton, why duplicate the City Manager, and City Council Functions... we may as well just Anex us to them if this is the type of City We "Want" to be.

IN A BLINK OF AN EYE and a Signing of an MOU the City Council approved an increase of RDA Debt from 15 Million to 65 Million... that will cost 200 Million to Pay Back.... Gee and GT Partners will be kicking in 300.000.00... Oh my...

HOW MUCH MORE OF THIS CAN WE TAKE BEFORE THE BALLOON of DEBT, POPS?

GT For Sale:
Foreclosure

Will be the next thing we have to look forward to under this City Manager... and City Council

Like in Fontana and Colton: Debt is Good is their RDA Mantra.

At a minimum the Citizens and the Future Buyer of Grand Terrace should know what they would be Buying if the City was Sold at a Foreclosure Auction.

Have we HAND ENOUGH YET? IS there NO AGENCY TO PROTECT US FROM THE TYRANNY OF DEBT and OVER REACHING RDA TRANSGRESSION and FOLLY?

Stephen Wall Reporter for the Sun Telegram once again beats the City Management’s Drum and does not report the WHOLE STORY:

Missing from his report is the MOU’s Statement which will demand the City RDA and City Council to increase the RDA DEBT from 15 Million to 65 Million, and extend the Existence of the RDA’s Tyrany over the Citizens, Businesses and Landowners of Grand Terrace, both in Jurisdiction and in the Number of Years to be Suffered.

Missing from his report is that the GT Partners LLC were the same people that cost the City untold legal expense in trying to defend their Grandiouse, Flauded and Finacialy Troubling Development formerly known as “Outdoor Adventure Center”. Judge Wade’s court REVERSED ALL APPROVALS related to the OAC. One would assume that would also have reversed any prior obligation or relationship carryover between the City and Grand Terrace Partners, LLC.

A Legitimate Developer would not have taken such a undependable approach to development as GT Partners and the Schwab tried.

Now Stephen Wall is not in the position to ask Ms. Ferre how she will deal with the Day Workers she will be inviting if the Council Approves a LOWES to Grand Terrace. Nor did he ask why she thinks inviting the Traffic to Grand Terrace 24/7 is better than the occasional annoyance of traveling to a Lowes. Lowes primary customers are contractors and they will continue the practice of having Pick Up Labor.

With the other suggestions being dropped as possible tenants, none are likely to be a good fit to Grand Terrace. These will all require Heavy Increases in Traffic Stopping to Shop in Grand Terrace. This should demand that the speed limit in the area should now be changed to 35mph to train the residents and transient traffic that this is a RETAIL/SCHOOL AREA.

GRAND TERRACE is about to Join COLTON and FONTANA with the HIGHEST DEBT PER CITIZEN CLUB. ALL Brought to you by having a REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY.

What is the alternative? Well if a Natural Approach was taken it would be the Developer who would have to make road improvements rather than the RDA’s Obligation. It would be the Developer who has to pay fair market value for land from the Property Owner’s who want to sell when they want to sell. It would be the Developer who determines best use within the existing zoning and use codes. It would not be the City or the RDA saying you build it we’ll change the codes and zoning and plans to FIT YOU.

GRAND TERRACE - Plans for developing the largest piece of vacant land in the city are moving forward.

The City Council approved an agreement on Tuesday with a group of developers to prepare plans for a roughly 100-acre freeway-oriented retail center.

The mixed-use project is intended to provide the city with the tax revenues necessary to sustain services such as police and fire protection.

"Once we build out Barton Road and this particular freeway project, it should provide enough annual income for our city operations now and into the future," City Manager Tom Schwab said.

The memorandum of understanding spells out the responsibilities of the developers, and the city in moving the project forward.

Specific uses have not been determined for the land east of the 215 Freeway and south of Barton Road.

The group of developers is known as Grand Terrace Partners LLC, which includes Torrance-based real estate firm Mar Ventures Inc., national-marketing specialists Madison Marquette and Los Angeles attorney Richard Lawrence.
The developers have been working with the city since 2004 on a concept for development of the area.

The city originally planned a retail project featuring boat and watercraft dealers, but a market study showed those land uses did not make economic sense.

Three years ago, the city signed an exclusive negotiating agreement with Grand Terrace Partners after talking to several other developers.
That initial agreement has expired, but the city and Grand Terrace Partners have informally agreed to continue working together on the project.
Tuesday night's council action, approved by a 4-0 vote with Council member Jim Miller abstaining, formally extends the earlier agreement.

Miller expressed concern about the city not using a formal bidding process to allow other developers to submit proposals.

"From the outside looking in, it would look like they had an inside shot," Miller said of Grand Terrace Partners. "It could come back and bite us."

Schwab said Grand Terrace Partners has a proven track record of accomplishment with the city and it would be unfair to allow other developers to enter the picture now.
Under the agreement, Grand Terrace Partners will pay about $300,000 for planning, environmental work, land appraisals and other design expenses.
They also will line up tenants for the center.

The city and Redevelopment Agency will be responsible for selecting firms to do a new Specific Plan and an environmental-impact report.

The city also will provide input to ensure that state and local transportation agencies complete traffic improvements needed for the project to move forward.
Schwab said the project will have two anchor tenants - possibly a home improvement store and a mixed-retail store such as Mervyn's, Target or Kohl's.
Several smaller stores would be included in the plan.

In addition, the project will have a residential component, although it hasn't been determined whether it will be homes, apartments or condominiums.
It will take about three years to complete the project, said Allan Mackenzie, president of Mar Ventures.

Mayor Maryetta Ferre said a quality retail center near the freeway is very important to the city's future.

"It's getting more and more difficult to travel to a Lowe's or to a Trader Joe's because of the traffic," Ferre said. "It would be very nice if we could provide those services here, yet do it in a very upscale way and still maintain the charm and sophistication of the city. I think these (developers) can help us do that."

MOU Loaded with PORK APPROPTRATIONS

The MOU agreed upon by 4 of the 5 Council Members Contains Authorization for the RDA to increase the RDA DEBT from 15 Million to 65 Million and more. THIS IS from an RDA Director and City Council that refuses to accept DEBT as being the same as Operating in the RED or at a Deficit as the rest of us in our Daily Lives would consider.


So not only were the Citizens Sold out to the GT Partners for 300.000.00 (Yes that is more than a quarter of a Million Dollars, but it is also about the price of a house in GT)... WE were put further into Slavery by the Company Store Mentality of the City Council and RDA by forcing an increased Debt Burden and Longer Dictatorship of the RDA over the Lives of the Citizens and Property and Business owners of GT.

Not only is this bad economics, not sustainable management practices, the methods used should be illegal and the conflict of interest and practices should be investigated by all levels of government from Federal on down.

Council Member Miller was correct in Abstaining on Approval of the MOU... He would have been better served to have voted NO. He would have gotten the Same Dirty Look that the Mayor Gave him when she realized he Abstained, as if to say... "How Dare He".

Council Member Miller's Paper Received over $6,000.00 in payments for Advertising. The Ads were printed, and the services rendered at the same rate any other business would pay. The real question should be is this an Expense that should have been Paid by the City of Grand Terrace? Isn't it Burtec's (Trash Service) Job or in their interest to pay for such an ad? Did the change not get sufficient attention at City Council Meetings, and in Press Coverage that justified an ADD TOO?

Or was this a way to entrap the Millers in some way, to get Council Member Miller Obligated to toe the line...

Spending 6000.00 to "Inform" the Public about a service change that was not much of a big deal. and then NOT Informing the Public that their DEBT was going to go from 15 to 65 Million with an MOU between the City and GT Partners who failed in their "Development Plan of the OAC". Question the Intent of the City Manager, and City Staff, and the other 4 City Council Members before you think of Charging the Millers of taking advantage. "After all the add was not put out to BID".

The Compensation for the Council Members and the credit card expenses should be looked into. I doubt that they can justify spending 200.00 per month for transportation expense. If they can perhaps they should stay home more often.

A.G. Jerry Brown, US District Attorney, FBI, IRS and CREW should look into the FINE DETAILS of this MOU. Our "Local DA Corruption Division is Impotent"

From the Email Inbox: Buchanan and AES Power Plant

It was nice that the City Council Member went to inspect a Power Station, and apparently has come to a conclusion with out the AES Power Plant being on the Agenda... or taking in a Real Public Hearing on the Matter, or putting forth a Motion to put the AES Power Plant on the Agenda.

Why would CJUSD School Board Leave GT?

Well, let's begin with the City Manager's Plan to Close GT Elementary School and convert the property to Commercial Use.

Let's follow up with the Dead Power Plant "Never to be Started Up Again" being re-established just Feet from Athletic Fields where our Students will be involved in physical activity.

Let's follow up with a Plan to Develop the Old OAC Area with the traffic ending up on "Main" street... Now how is that not going to impact the High School? Teleportation perhaps...

Well, let's hope the CJUSD has the foresight to include in their MOU to go forward with the HS3 the following conditions.

One: The Entire City Council and City Staff above Clerk will live at the school in trailers or during all hours the Peaker Plant is in operation and they will also have to walk the track while the Power Plant is in Operation during School Hours.

Two: GT ELM will be Preserved or Replaced at the Cost of the City of Grand Terrace and the Personal Income and Finances of the City Management and City Council.

Three: Mayor Ferre will act as Ball Room Clerk 20 hours a month. Making sure all balls are properly used and kept in place.

Four: City Manager Schwab will manage traffic by personally directing it during the hour before school and after school and for any games or functions at the school. The CJUSD will provide white gloves... and a vest.

From the Email INBox: Speed Available in GT

Gramps...

Get off the Freeway and Stop at the Red Lights, and then go past a School, and Retail area... don't drive a reasonable speed of 35mph which would be the speed if no other is posted and no children are at school, then it would be 25mph... then drive through the main part of town, and as you get past the fork in the road the sped limit goes up to 40, and then you navigate through two stop lights and two lanes becoming one on a narrow land bridge with a curve. Then arrive on a short strip just prior to a STOP LIGHT that is posted as 50MPH...

First of all lets face the reality of the short strip of 50 MPH on the Colton Piece of Barton RD. That speed limit says, Colton PD is not going to do Speed enforcement on a 1/4 mile of road.

Second: The above speed limts preclude the use of LEV's in Grand Terrace. (Light Electric Vehicles). You see, you can't get from the Proposed Grand Terrace Senior Housing or the North End of GT to the South End as a LEV can only go on a street with a speed limit of 35mph or less.

SO:

IF Barton Rd from the West Most Grand Terrace City Line to Mt. Vernon should or could be 35mph, and the area from Past the Fork in the Road Palm/Barton Rd Fork could begin the 40mph section, (LEV's Could use Palm and Preston to get to the Library and Banks and so forth.) Then 40 to 45 the rest of the way from the Preston Fork to the East End of Barton RD.

This would be not only a safe option, but also a logical one. It would allow for the Seniors to use LEV's and this would be GREEN. It would slow down traffic around a school and in busy shopping district, where PEDESTRIANS, and CARS are all on the INCREASE...

The Recommendation was reasonable... and there was a reasonable way of making them fit... BUT NO Reason went right past the City Council... as so much does.

So much for helping Seniors not NEED their individual large cars to go to the market or run errands in town. There is no functional Public Transportation where the Villa's are... Once again they are not seeing past their personal need for speed. There is much more than how "They Like to Drive" to think about.

From the Email InBox: Tonights MOU

Gramps:

Please know the MOU is with the same people who:

Brought the Grandiose Plan for the Outdoor Adventure Center:
Judge Wade set that plan and approvals back to ZERO because:

No Traffic or Circulation Plan.
Adverse Effect Community Financial Obligations to meet the UNDER PLANED INFRASTRUCTURE COSTS.

IN ADDITION:

Portions of the City Planning Department work "Part Time" for the City and "Part Time" for one of the Partners of "Grand Terrace Partners, LLC". IF this is not a conflict of Interest I don't know what is.

IN ADDITION:

Mr. Schwab's dislike for "Natural Development" is equal to the removal of Property Rights of anyone owning land in the Proposed Development Area and the Adjacent Property and roads.

Directing "Circulation" ie Traffic to MAIN street away from the High School? Where is that going to go? The Sketches will shock the PUBLIC and the Colton Joint Unified School District Board Members.

Drawings and Maps showing GT Elm School as Commercial Property and not a School, is a demonstration of the Disrespect the City Manager has for the School Board.

The City going around to land owners and suggesting zone changes, so that "Plans" can be done, is only a way for the city to deny land owners flexibility in the use and development of their property.

GT Partners. LLC had a ill advised, contract or Exclusive Agreement to Develop the OAC. They have Failed. To continue with them without opening up the concept or opportunity to the citizens, landowners, and yes other developers should be illegal. If it isn't it should be.

If you own property in the Proposed area this agreement means:

YOU may not sell or develop your own property to your own advantage. You may only sell and develop it to the advantage of the RDA/ and the GT Partners.

YOU may be subject to Eminent Domain if your Residential Property is in a Commercial Zone. Remember, your zoning can change at the whim or direction of the Schwab. So IF you live anywhere in GT don't think you enjoy full ownership of your property. IF YOU INVEST in Commercial Property in GT... don't think you have a fair competition.

From the Schwab's own mouth you heard him say HE extended the Exclusive Agreement and the MOU is just formalizing Staff's Decision.

The entire MOU and Drawings will be posted... soon

THE DOCUMENTS SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE CITY WEB PAGE... along with the "PLANS".

NO Plan should be accepted for this area until Cal Trans and US DEPT of Transportation have the drawings done in BLACK INK.

IN ADDITION: Natural Development does not increase PUBLIC DEBT of the RDA. The Schwab's Plan will Increase the PUBLIC RDA DEBT.

What you saw was the negotiation for the Prostitution of the City Council, and City Staff for the Benefit of the Developer, and perhaps a few property and business owners. AND the Enslavement of Property Owners and Citizens.

We will all be Indentured Servants or Debt Slaves without the right to use or truly "Own Property"... You saw the sale price for of 300,000.00 You were Sold out GT Citizens... and Property Owners... and the Price was Cheep. As a Matter of fact it wouldn't even buy a house in GT ..... Last Month..

THE CITY WEB PAGE POSTED a LINK FOR SEPT 11 2007 Meeting and then posted an AGENDA that has subsquently been changed to the above. THE MOTIVE? CHECK OUT THE NEW BUSINESS...

Grand Terrace RED LIGHT Photo Enforcement

Gramps Remind Folks:

The North & South Traffic on the Mt. Vernon - Barton Road and Michigan-Barton Road Intersections are in full operation.

One has to wonder why the N/S Traffic and not the E/W traffic on Barton Road... Is it perhaps because our City Council Members want to speed through these intersections without enforcement? I doubt that, however I do think that they are all for keeping high speeds and high traffic on Barton Rd. The Speed Mentality begins on the main road.. Barton Road. If the speed limits were enforced there, and IF Red Light Compliance was enforced there the modified driving behavior may spread into the neighborhoods.

I know several regular GT Drivers who just don't use those intersections. This pushes more drivers... speeding drivers I may add onto our streets with schools and residences.

PEOPLE OF GT... GO on a DRIVE SLOW PROTEST...

Drive UNDER the SPEED LIMIT...

New Businesses try GT:

The Down Town Commercial Center, (where Stater Brother's currently operates) has two new businesses.

Tina's Mexican Restaurant will be located in the former Miguele's Spot. This is the same Tina's that you enjoy in Riverside.

A Dojo (School) for Tae Kuan Do is opening between the China Bowl, and the Tax Preparation Business... Interesting placement... go do your taxes... and work it off at the Dojo.

Please let us support these new businesses and applaud the inclusion of Family Friendly Businesses that will provide some additional activities for your children and youth and all the family. It would be nice to have an entire shopping dinning center that is totaly kid friendly..

Yeah for the new tenants and for not Taking a Business from one location and moving it just down the street... as some other Development Owners have been doing. These are NEW Businesses to Grand Terrace. Bringing NEW Business and Services to Grand Terrace is REAL Economic and Community Growth.

End the School Week on the Roll.....

AFTER-SCHOOL SKATING is from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. every Friday at Cal Skate Grand Terrace, 22080 Commerce Way, Grand Terrace. Admission is $5 and skate rental is $3. For information, visit www.calskategt.com or call 909-783-2342.

Report IS>>>>>>

The Thursday night Planning Commission meeting was cancelled. Next one scheduled up is on the 20th.

Go Green City of GT..... Go Green

Grand Terrace should follow the lead of San Bernardino County. It should encourage the use of Alternative Clean Energy, and start by removing any fees for the installation of Alternative Systems for Power, Heat or Cooling.

Pride in Out of Town Arrests is Flawed Thinking.

When we read the Arrest Report and do a simple search on where the people "Reside" we do find that most live outside of Grand Terrace.

Now we must ask, why are Drunk Drivers, and Drug Dealers, and Drug Users in Grand Terrace?

Are they visiting places that feed their addiction, or on their way home from feeding their addictions or intoxicant of choice?

Is there a correlation with the Graffiti?

Are Noise Ordinances being ignored allowing our "Guests" to Party at Bars or even in Private Homes in Residential areas, only later to get into cars and endanger themselves and others by driving while intoxicated?

Perhaps it is time to have an Ordinance that if you are arrested for DUI .08 the car is Auctioned off. IF you are Arrested for DUI it is Impounded. IF you are a DUI and Live in GT Your Picture should be on a Wall of Shame...

One thing is for sure. We don't need to INVITE more Drunks and Drug Dealers to GT, by allowing loud parties, more alcohol sales and consumption points in the city, and higher speed limits in part of town.

Red Ribbon Week should be a Red Ribbon Year in GT... and not just at schools but the entire city.

Reasons for Colton Mayor Recall: Sounds Like GT

The Citizens who have Served Notice of Recall to the Mayor of Colton have come to the conclusion that allowing the Mayor of Colton to continue to end of her term would be detrimental to the City and Citizens of Colton. The Mayor's first response to the Recall Notice, "I must be doing something right".

Colton's Mayor and City Council have:

Increased Department Head and City Manager's Pay and not increased services to Citizens and local Business.

Initiated the use of Eminent Domain on "Commercial Property" and began construction while there was still pending court cases pending.

Frustrated and possibly lost the Regional Park on the Santa Anna River. This would have benefited Grand Terrace and South Colton area greatly.

Spent Grant Money to build a Bike Path for the 7 registered bike riders of Colton. When, the Money could have been better used either by other communities, or in other places. Just because they can get a Grant to do something, does not mean it is wise to use available funds. Perhaps leaving the money in the money pool would have been the better judgement for the City of Colton, and the tax payers who pay, federal and state taxes that funded that Fund. Bottom line, the grabbing of grants just because you can, not because there is a real need is a flawed management policy.

What the Mayor of Colton and the City Manager of Colton are doing is deepening the Debt Obligations of Colton, patterning the Financial Management after the City of Fontan that has a debt 2nd only to the City of Los Angeles. The inbreeding between Fontana and Colton's Management is a serious detriment to the working class citizens of Colton.

Colton had an advantage over Grand Terrace. One of those advantages was employment opportunities for its citizens and homes that were affordable in relationship to those jobs available in the local economy. Colton is or was a Workers Town. To force a New Port Beach Makeover in an effort to make housing unattainable to the Workers in town is an error in the Social Sustainability of a Community. A Large Civic Debt is not a Good Thing... A large Personal Debt is not a Good Thing. For Civic Leaders be they on a City Council, Mayor, City Manager, or Redevelopment Agency Member to push Debt as a Good Thing is or should be as criminal as the Drug Dealer selling on the street corner.

Fontana Management is spilling over into Colton... Colton has an impact on Grand Terrace.

How will Grand Terrace respond? Is it time to get our government in check, and get away from this Debt is Good mentality in Grand Terrace. (OF COURSE, first you have to get GT City Council and Redevelopment Agency to accept that a BOND is a DEBT, and not just an "Asset". This "Asset" Manager Schwab is so proud at running up is also a LIABILITY DEBT that has to be paid back with Interest. Other Grandiose Plans and actions by the GT City Council, and Redevelopment Agency, and City Manager/Redevelopment Director Mr. Schwab, are as troubling.

Is this the "Freedom" and "Government" we the People want to perpetuate in our community?

Mayor Recall Notice Served: In Colton....

City leaders begin steps to remove the mayor

COLTON - Business and civic leaders on Tuesday night launched an effort to remove Mayor Kelly Chastain from office.
Members of a nonpartisan group Citizens for Colton First handed Chastain an intent to recall notice during the public comment portion of the meeting.

If the notice is deemed sufficient, the group can begin the signature-gathering process to force a recall election.

Recall proponents would need to collect at least 3,180 valid signatures of Colton residents, which equates to 20 percent of the 15,896 registered voters in the city.

The group plans to collect more than 4,000 signatures in case some are thrown out because of deficiencies.

The group's goal is to place the recall for a yes or no vote before residents in a special election in April 2008.

Leaders of the recall movement said Chastain has taken the city down the wrong path since she was elected mayor in November.

Chastain, 44, has served on the council since 1992.

"We are concerned about the way our city is being run and the level of government representation we are getting," longtime resident Frank Navarro, president-elect of the Colton Chamber of Commerce, said before the meeting.

"We're doing the recall because she's not doing the job she was elected to do."
Chastain responded that she is moving Colton in a new direction that some people might find uncomfortable.

"Call it an honor," Chastain said of the recall. "I guess I'm doing something right - making change."

Chastain noted two proposed mixed-use developments in the west and south ends of the city that she said will bring lots of jobs and tax revenue to Colton.

Councilman John Mitchell praised Chastain's leadership as mayor.

"She has been amazing," Mitchell said during the meeting. "She has gone above and beyond what I ever thought she could be. We have some awesome, awesome opportunities in this city."

In their recall notice, proponents said Chastain has misused her position by launching irresponsible attacks on businesses and citizens and demonstrated a lack of knowledge of her financial responsibility.

Recall supporters also accuse Chastain of mishandling the effort to build a county regional park in Colton.

They say also she ignores the wishes of citizens while supporting large pay raises for city department heads.

The city's attempt to develop a two-mile bike path along Colton Avenue also has outraged recall proponents.

Officials are locked in a legal battle with a longtime resident who occupies a sliver of property the city needs for the bike project.

Gary Grossich, whose father, Ernie Grossich, sits on the disputed land, is a part of the recall movement.

"There's a lot bigger issues that affect a lot more people in Colton than this bike path," Gary Grossich said. "My dad's situation with the city is just another branch off the same tree."Art Thompson,

an 85-year-old Colton native, said he used to be a big supporter of Chastain but now has a different opinion of the mayor.

"I'm really disappointed, to say the least," said Thompson. "It's one of those things that if you make a mistake, you try to get it right."

Chastain said she will defeat the recall challenge.

"I'm committed to moving Colton out of the past and into a successful and healthy community," she said during the meeting. "I can sleep at night knowing that I'm doing what's right for the city."


Colton group seeks mayor's recall; council members defends leader

COLTON - A group of citizens who say they aren't happy with the way the city is being run wants to recall Colton Mayor Kelly Chastain.

At the City Council meeting Tuesday night, about a dozen citizens stood up during public comment, as resident Frank Navarro spoke of discontentment with the city's leadership.

"Tonight, before you is a group of citizens that are pessimistic about their city," Navarro said. "Their pessimism is such that the time has come to stand up and voice their feelings as to how their elected officials are conducting city business."

Navarro said after he spoke that the group has presented the mayor and the city with a petition signed by 35 residents who support of the recall. He said the group is not satisfied with how the city is being run but declined to give specifics.

"A well-run city is like an effective business," Navarro said. "Yes, our services are being provided, but it's the politics within the machine."

Chastain responded to the recall effort, describing the push to oust her as a sign that she is "doing something right."

Alluding to the corruption in the city's past, Chastain said the new council is attempting to move forward and get beyond that negativity.

"I am not here for a popularity contest or to be a 'yes' person," she said. "I was elected for change, and I think that's what the community wants."

Several council members spoke in support of Chastain.

Councilman John Mitchell said the city leaders don't make decisions based on who is a "good ol' boy" anymore, and that rubs some the wrong way.

"She's gone above and beyond anything I thought she could be or would be," Councilman John Mitchell said of Chastain. "We can wallow in the past, or we can move on and do some awesome things."

Councilwoman Susan Oliva said she feels criticism of Chastain goes back to the previous council. Chastain has served on the council since 1996. She was elected mayor in November.

"This mayor has worked diligently and has worked honestly," she said.

IN 1999 Remember...

Eminent domain powers approved Over the protests of some owners, the Grand Terrace council votes to give the redevelopment agency the option of seizing property.

By Courtney Perkes

GRAND TERRACE

In an effort to increase sales tax dollars for Grand Terrace, the City Council voted Thursday night to give the redevelopment agency the power to seize property in commercial areas.
City officials said without the power of eminent domain, it can be impossible to put together property for development because it only takes one person refusing to sell to kill a deal. Most likely the power would never be used, but it would help with negotiations, City Manager Tom Schwab said.

Council members said in the wake of a failed utility tax and the cuts to city programs that were made last month, development that creates sales tax for Grand Terrace is the only way to increase revenue.

"Right now, we are walking around with a redevelopment gun without any bullets in it," said Councilman Dan Buchanan, who said he is not aware of any other redevelopment agency that does not have the power of eminent domain. "It doesn't make it a very effective hunt for the ever elusive sales tax dollar."

City officials drafted the eminent domain ordinance at the request of Riverside developer Lisa Hjulberg, who is trying to assemble 18 acres of land along Barton Road for a shopping area with senior housing. Hjulberg said eight of 12 property owners have agreed to sell, but four others are holding out for more money.

"It's very difficult to bring everybody into consensus," she said after the meeting. "All it takes is for one to say no."

But on Thursday night, residents expressed opposition to the use of eminent domain. Others criticized the proposed project that is known as Town Square and could include a movie theater, upscale bookstore and restaurants.

"I don't want to see that area developed," said resident Robert Stirling, adding that such a project could only be supported by a larger population in town or people coming in from surrounding cities. "Either one, that's not the reason we live in Grand Terrace."
Resident Cynthia Bidney said she is opposed to eminent domain except in situations where land will be used for a public purpose such as a street. She said Grand Terrace should remain a bedroom community and not try to become a commercial area.

"We don't want vacant commercial buildings and we have a lot of them here," Bidney said.

But Sharon Van Ert, who has agreed to sell her property for the Town Square project, said she is frustrated that the people who won't sell are preventing her from doing so.
"Without eminent domain, we could be sitting here another 20 years," Van Ert said.

The ordinance will come back to the City Council in two weeks, when it must be adopted a second time in order to take effect. On Thursday, Councilwoman Lee Ann Garcia voted no because City Attorney John Harper was not at the meeting and she said questions should be answered by him before the council took action.

Mayor Byron Matteson abstained because he owns property in the area of the proposed Town Square project.

GT FIRE: LA TIMES Driver Alerts Homeowner

http://www.sbsun.com/news/ci_6795166
GRAND TERRACE Deliveryman wakes woman in burning home

A newspaper deliveryman alerted a woman early Saturday morning that her house was on fire, helping her to safety while firefighters doused the blaze.

The unidentified Los Angeles Times deliveryman spotted the fire in the 11800 block of Arlis Court about 4:35 a.m. Saturday. He dialed 9-1-1 and then banged on the woman's door until she answered, according to San Bernardino County fire department news release.

Firefighters attributed the quick actions of the newspaper deliveryman to helping save the life of the unidentified 67-year-old woman, whose adult son was not home at the time of the fire, officials said.

Firefighters from the San Bernardino County, Loma Linda and Colton departments extinguished the blaze in about 50 minutes. It was contained to the garage, patio and attic and caused about $200,000 in damage.

The cause of the blaze was attributed to faulty wiring in the garage, county fire Capt. Jack Dejong said.

Vandals or Helpers?

Sunday Morning along the sidewalk on Mt. Vernon residents awakened to tree branches on the sidewalk.

Was this done by a “Helpful” citizen, or a Vandal? Yes there are many walkers who are no doubt bothered by low hanging branches along sidewalks, and the city has passed a new ordinance regarding trimming branches over sidewalks. However, was notice given to the residence that during a heat wave they would be getting this Help?

To do this during a heat wave is less than kind unless the “Helper” had a truck or trailer and hauled away the offending branches.

Perhaps the City could maintain the trees that are in GT before they go and plant over 200 more on Main St. Or let the citizens cut them down and keep all tree planting out of the City’s Right of Way near the streets. Folks can plant a tree closer to their home and eliminate the street infringement and increase the efficiency of cooling during the summer.

What is in a Sign?

"The Sign is Up at the HS#3", this according to the Mayor Ferre is a Proof that the School will be built on that site, for “Our Students”.

The Sign Indicating the Demarcation of Grand Terrace and Colton indicates the portion of Mt. Vernon North of Grand Terrace Rd… aka “Jap Hill”, is in the City of Colton, yet GT Maintenance Crews were cleaning up trash and weeds.

The Sign says Grand Terrace Rd, yet the City of Riverside has been patching the road from Barton to its Water Lift Station… just past Vivienda…

The Sign says Park…. But please don’t, just drive by and look at it…

The Sign says 45mph along Barton Rd between Mt. Vernon and Washington,,, and because people speed, and break the law the sign and the speed will change disregarding the safety of the community, drivers and speeders rule the law in the community. Council Members and Staff brag on how difficult it is to drive a slower speed through our town.

When some on the Council say “ I thought the plan included “Transportation””, or in past meetings, I don’t read the Council Book, I wait till the meeting to get the feel of the idea and the staff report… I like the spontaneity of it… When others say “We never used Eminent Domain”, and so forth I have to ask once again is this the best we can do for City Council Members? Signs are Bad when Staff Boasts we got the Park Land (Pocket Park) by refusing to approve a development application unless the park land was provided. Note to citizens…. Developers pay park development fees, they should not have land extorted from them in order to get plans approved.

Signs are bad when Council Member Miller reprints the assurance that a Citizen living in their Residential Zoned Property will not face the use of Eminent Domain, the line of the City Manager and Legal Advisor… and fails to mention that Zoning of Your property can be changed from Residential to Commercial at the whim of the City Staff and City Manager at the request of a developer they favor, should void any assurances that Ownership or full enjoyment of your property is guaranteed in Grand Terrace.

Signs are bad when the Pocket Park is not using Solar PV Lights, and the Park Funds are not used to Change all park lighting to PV Lights and PV Cells.

Signs are bad when the Proposed Senior Center is not required to have a Solar Cell Roof and Parking Structure.

The City Council is from the same party that brought us… these signs and events…
Mission Complete… Good Job Brownie… Alberto Gonzales, …… Boarder Patrol Officers in Jail and Drug Smugglers go free. Hmm… not all politics are local, but the Signs sure are similar in their value. Is Tom Schwab the equivalent of Carl Rove?

IF the Sign Says it does not make it happen Mayor Ferre.

Shame on you all...

Gramps RE Signs..

You forgot mention of certain signs in the Sunday posting.

I believe there was mention in original environmental report that the Colton School District was going to erect directional and information signs from downtown G.T. to the new high school. As Michigan is most direct route, but unable to support the large bus traffic it was proposed that until the residents of the City of G.T. float another bond measure and improve, and that land frontage from residents and widen the street there were going to be a series of signs placed along main streets of town.

Several signs along Mt. Vernon, pointed south to Main Street and then west to the high school, and another group of signs along Barton Road directing traffic towards La Cadena, then towards Iowa and finally to Main street and east. I don't remember if mention was made on signs within Riverside County explaining drivers how to steer the proper direction. As the report did not mention much of anything within neighboring Riverside County, doubtful any were to be placed there. All these signs which tell the visitors, parents, bus drivers to avoid the use of Michigan, 'least until the residents of the City of G.T. can pay for the improvements.

And per news at the Blog recently. Wasn't there supposed to be another sign at the Michigan and Main school site indicating "Sorry, we blew most of the bond money we collected on other things. Guess you will have to wait a bit longer for construction costs to decrease in order for the District to start. Plus this may depend upon the passing of another bond issue to replace the original one. Trust us." If the new sign by the Mayor and C. Mgr. happens to rot away or fall over while we are waiting with yet another...then do not set back up.

From Email In Box:
Gramps Some More on Signs:

And don't forget the signs on the freeway that nextofframp is to the Outdoor Adventure Center (plus acircuitous route to Barton Road)(Laugh, laugh, laugh)

When will the city get back into the management modeinstead of the enterprizing mode?
