► Discussion of Grand Avenue Median Landscape Plan
► Proposed Armed Forces Banner Program
► Urgency Ordinance — Operation of Medical Marijuana Dispensaries
1) DISCUSSION OF LANDSCAPING PLAN FOR GRAND AVENUE
MEDIANS
CSD/Rose reported that staff was preparing to install landscaping on
Grand Ave. and that he wanted to make sure that Council understood that
no turf was included in the plans and that the entire area from SR 60 to
Longview Dr. would be landscaped with the same type of plantings along
with 36 -inch box trees. CSD/Rose went on to state that the tree plantings
are scheduled to commence the week of May 8-12 and with the remaining
landscaping going in the following week.
Responding to C/Tye, CSD/Rose stated that there were no plans to
remove the trees from D.B. Blvd. to Longview if they can be preserved.
Instead, staff plans to remove the turf and install different planting material
to adhere to stricter water conservation by keeping the water within the
median areas.
M/Herrera pointed out that when the water flows onto the street it creates
an unsafe and slick condition for motorists and erodes the asphalt.
APRIL 18, 2006 PAGE 2 CC STUDY SESSION
2) PROPOSED ARMED FORCES BANNER PROGRAM
CSD/Rose reported that it is staff's goal for Council to select a banner
from the samples contained in the Agenda packet and to decide on the
wording that would be placed on the banner. Item 8.2 on the Regular
meeting agenda seeks approval of and funding for the program.
M/Herrera said her personal preference was "D.B. Salutes".
MPT/Zirbes liked the first example with the American flag but wondered
how well it would transfer to the banner with it being much darker than the
rest of the banner.
M/Herrera asked how "D.B. Salutes" would be included on the first
example.
CSD/Rose responded that it required a taller banner so there would be
space on the top for "D.B. Salutes" along with the name.
MPT/Zirbes suggested deleting "Thank you for Serving" and dropping the
name and the division down to the star with "D.B. Salutes" and the
individual's name and division over the star.
C/Tanaka liked sample 7 in the packet with either "Thank you for Serving"
or "Thanks for Serving." When he drives through different cities the most
important thing is to be able to read the name. Because flags are going to
be on the poles anyway he felt it was not as important to have a flag in the
banner but more important to have the red, white and blue with the star
and the name being as large as possible in white with the branch of
service and wording similar to Item No. 7.
MPTIZirbes asked what other flags C/Tanaka was referring to and
whether he thought there would be American flags with the banners.
CSD/Rose said that staff posts American flags on the boulevards during
holidays so it was a matter of whether the Council wanted to post them
more frequently or continuously.
MlHerrera felt that white was easier to read than the blue on red.
MPT/Zirbes said the Council would most likely want the one that reads the
best.
M/Herrera stated that she liked "D.B. Salutes", with the name and branch
being included. She pointed to the sample she liked.
APRIL 18, 2006 PAGE 3 CC STUDY SESSION
With consensus of Council it was agreed that the banners would read
"D.B. Salutes", with the name as large as possible in white with the branch
of service and wording that reads the most appropriate.
M/Herrera said that in determining the names of those serving staff should
contact all of the local churches because she believed that each church
had a list of people within their congregation who are serving.
Discussion ensued about who should be included. With consensus of
Council it was agreed not to limit the honorees. However, if the number of
honorees reached 50, staff should come back to Council for further
direction.
3) URGENCY ORDINANCE — OPERATION OF MEDICAL MARIJUANA
DISPENSARIES.
ACM/Doyle stated that the proposed urgency Ordinance regulates the use
within the community of a medical marijuana dispensary. Staff has
identified a number of issues concerning the health and safety of the
community as well as that of the patients and caregivers. This Ordinance
states that any entity that intends to operate this type of facility will be
required to have a licensed security guard during all hours of operation. In
addition, the hours of operation have been extended from 10:00 a.m. to
5:00 p.m., to 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday and
Sunday from 12:00 noon to 5:00 p.m. to provide more flexibility. The
Ordinance prohibits any type of onsite consumption and requires the
operator to submit to a criminal background check. Additionally, staff
inserted language providing that if Proposition 215 is found, by the Court,
to be invalid the Ordinance becomes null and void and reverts to an illegal
use. Furthermore, the Ordinance would require compliance within 60 days
from the date of its adoption.
MPT/Zirbes asked if the proposed Ordinance met the intent of Proposition
215.
CA/Jenkins responded that he believed it did.
MPTIZirbes asked if under Section 2h(2) should be changed to read only
that the recipient could not consume the marijuana on the property.
CA/Jenkins explained that the Ordinance attempts to convey to the user
that the City wants the recipient to take the marijuana to a private place —
not to a City Park, not to a parking lot, and not to some other public
location.
C/Tye said that while the ordinance limits the owner/operator, the City has
no influence over the user.
APRIL 18, 2006
PAGE 4 CC STUDY SNESSION
CA/Jenkins said that all the City could do was to require the
ownerloperator to notify people by posting signs telling then m what they
were supposed to do. Once recipients were outside of the establishment
the owner/operator would no longer have any control over therm. The goal
was to get people to cooperate.
MPTIZirbes felt the language was too broad and woyld be more
comfortable with language to the effect that there was "no I oltering in or
around the dispensary and no consumption of marijuana inside of the
dispensary or in the parking lot of the establishment'.
ACM/Doyle referred Council to Section 2e indicating no onsite sales of
alcohol and tobacco and no onsite consumption of any of the following.
CA/Jenkins recommended a possible change to the Ordinance stating it
could read: "...In the vicinity of the dispensary or in the parking lot."
MPTIZirbes said he would be more comfortable with that language.
MlHerrera asked if the inclusion of the word "urgency" on the last page -
Section 5 of 8.26.030, gave the Ordinance any special circurrlstances. -
CA/Jenkins said the wording would render the Ordinance immediately in
effect once approved with no second reading required and no requirement
to wait the usual 30 days.
CITye asked why Section 2e and p appeared to be in conflict with respect
to food.
ACM/Doyle explained that there would be no consumption of food allowed
but food could be sold.
CITye asked about barring the sale of paraphernalia.
CA/Jenkins said there was no such wording contained in the Ordinance
and that the verbiage could be added if the Council chose to do so.
MPTIZirbes said he would add language to bar the sale of paraphernalia
under Section 2e.
CA/Jenkins offered the following language: "no onsite sales of alcohol,
tobacco or pipes, papers, water pipes, vaporizers and other related
paraphernalia."
ACM/Doyle responded to MPTIZirbes that Reverend Touhey was not
happy about being the only provider in D.B. This individual has been
personally affected and because he believes his time is limited he feels it
APRIL 18, 2006 PAGE 5 CC STUDY SESSION
is his calling to provide this type of relief to other patients. He is not here to
make money or have a monopoly. He believes the product should be
readily available. To date he has sold by appointment only.
C/Tye wanted to know how Reverend Touhey would be able to comply
with the requirement to have a licensed security guard if he did business
by appointment only and whether the operation could be shut down if he
did not comply.
ACM/Doyle responded to M/Herrera that the dispensing of marijuana did
not involve a prescription. The individual completes a form that authorizes
him to use the medicine and a licensed physician signs the form.
CA/Jenkins responded to M/Herrera that the dispensary must maintain an
original form, not a copy.
In response to MPT/Zirbes Lt. Maxey explained that in the event an
individual is questioned the signed form is the individual's defense and
that there is a reasonable expectation that the individual has a right to
possess the medicine when he has the form in his possession.
Public Comments: None Offered.
ADJOURNMENT: With no further business to come before the City
Council, M/Herrera adjourned the Study Session at 5:58 p.m.

8. COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
8.1 ADOPT UGENCY ORDINANCE NO. 0X(2006) GOVERNING THE
OPERATION OF MEDICAL MARIJUANA DISPENSARIES AND
DECLARING THE URGENCY THEREOF.
ACM/Doyle reported that in 1996 California voters approved
Proposition 215, the Compassionate Use Act of 1996, which allowed
a patient with a doctor's recommendation to use medical marijuana.
Medical marijuana is not distributed in pharmacies like other types of
regulated medications, but dispensed via dispensaries. Currently,
dispensaries are not an approved land use in D.B. Other communities
that have had similar situations have been experiencing costly
litigation as a result of not having this type of land use. The County of
Los Angeles is going through a similar process to adopt an ordinance
to regulate this type of land use in the unincorporated areas and it is
staff's position that Council should take a position to adopt this type of
land use so that the City can regulate the land use and protect the
community. The Ordinance before Council deals with this type of land
use and would allow for only one such dispensary to be located in the
community. In addition, the Ordinance sets forth certain regulations
and restrictions including requiring an onsite licensed security guard
during operating hours; limits the hours of operation from 10:00 a.m.
to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 12:00 noon to 5:00 p.m.
on Sunday; prohibits onsite and public consumption; and, prohibits
the use and sale of paraphernalia.
MlHerrera asked for Public Comment. There was no one present who
wished to speak on this item.
APRIL 18, 2006 PAGE 3 CITY COUNCIL
C/Zirbes moved, C/Chang seconded, to adopt Urgency Ordinance No.
04(2006) Governing the Operation of Medical Marijuana Dispensaries
and Declaring the Urgency Thereof as revised, Motion carried by the
following Rolf Call vote:
AYES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: Chang, Tanaka, Tye,
MPT/Zirbes, M/Herrera
NOES: COUNCIL MEMBERS: None
ABSENT: COUNCIL MEMBERS: None
2. CITY MANAGER REPORTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: None Offered.
3. PUBLIC COMMENTS: D.B. Library Reference and Young Adult
Librarian, Mary Yogi, reported that the Library continues to offer Princeton
Review College Prep Seminars and Practice SAT tests. On Thursday, May
11 at 6:30 p.m. the Library will hold a seminar entitled "Secrets to UC
Admissions." The Friends of the D.B. Library will provide refreshments. On
Thursday, April 20 the Library will hold a paper craft workshop for teens and
adults. This Summer the Library will hold its Summer Reading Program that
will include teens and adults.
Larry Smith said that as an investment consultant he was concerned to read
an article in the San Gabriel Valley Tribune citing D.B. as the only City in the
San Gabriel Valley to suffer a decrease in property values last year. During
the previous few weeks he has spoken about the cultural and economic
benefits of a new library for the City. During his research he has found reams
supporting the findings that libraries enhance the standard of living and
support local businesses and economic growth. He has not found a single
article to support the contention that libraries are passe or a waste of time or
money. He quoted from articles that spoke of the community benefits of
libraries. Those individuals interviewed for the articles noted that when a
library was built the general economic health of the community was
perceived to increase. The studies he reviewed showed that economic
benefit of the community ranged from $2.50 to $7.50 for every $1.00
invested in a library. He believed that a new library could be a vehicle to
galvanize and unite the City. Instead of just putting the item on the ballot he
wanted each Council Member to support a new library.

Arbor Day was particularly fun for her and it is always great to go to Pantera

had not remembered in past years that there were so many little skits as
there was this year. She too thanked City staff for all of their hard work in
