Larry Stein said development fees collected for the Northeast Mesa specific plan since the 1990s had not produced an expected fire station or park despite fees and some construction elsewhere. \"Action should be made to reference the city manager and the city council,\" Stein said, asking INCO to seek completion of projects such as College Park and Sports Park.

Ronald Arejo, who said he chairs the East Village neighborhood and the Measure O bond citizens oversight committee, reminded attendees that the mayor can appoint three additional members to the Measure O oversight committee and one appointment remains open on the planning commission. Arejo said residents should contact Mayor Louis McArthur or the city clerk’s office to apply.

Angela (last name Whitcomb) said the Parks Commission is down two members and urged nominations; she announced a public meeting at Durley Park on Saturday at 9 a.m. to prioritize remaining grant funds and gather community input.

INCO did not take formal action on these public comments during the meeting; comments were recorded for potential referral to the city manager and council or for scheduling on a future agenda.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","INCO - General Membership Meeting - 7/9/2025","oneSentenceSummary","Public commenters asked INCO to press the city for completion of legacy capital projects in the Northeast Mesa area and alerted residents to vacancies on Measure O citizen oversight and city commissions; Parks Commission also reported membership shortfalls and a Durley Park funding meeting was announced.","taxTitle","Oxnard City, Ventura County, California","taxId",3809,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6519686,"INCO votes to participate in holiday parade and tamale festival if at least 15 neighborhoods agree",1023,2848000,3871000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5348073-aa9827c260eb1ca0ee71727633b84e53&start=2848&end=3871","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5348073-aa9827c260eb1ca0ee71727633b84e53/thumbnail_2848000.jpg","/articles/6519686/Oxnard-City/Ventura-County/California/INCO-votes-to-participate-in-holiday-parade-and-tamale-festival-if-at-least-15-neighborhoods-agree","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6519686-36b1d8d714235281baf8f91ec08b7942/orig.mp4?Expires=1775145826&Signature=J-KOo~mzumpAR756XuMiviuqOP6pRNO1bKV-pLUiqguBaXvbeZ5r~ahnecqiCP6YuZhUz9S3TDuTp2uGtPsTy1IOxaYIJuWNIsDASEJTNAWwBvMku0iBXo5X7C4aPimYRh3WSLG6KJnFbquhaqAXrjZQxmwtSYsjxZ15zJJQFB~nUD4WUjM87f4yJ-dDh3cwuomK63drjuarAXW-2T6cdmQ-xqfZ5kDjkMSNk1LqMxCDGU2sp9ogIHmu2DFsmq6nRT55Zyamb-mezatdtRvIzH4B5vAZyvP8Qih857O~AmcSBBL1f9D0IBQCiQu9nDvjY3Q3wdZN7CHXcpLzfpH1tg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The INCO general membership approved a motion to participate in the city’s annual holiday parade and the accompanying Tamale Festival provided at least 15 neighborhoods commit to participate.

Angela Whitecomb (Wilson neighborhood) moved that INCO participate; Rainey (Cabrillo neighborhood) seconded the motion. After discussion about logistics, timing and whether a float or a staffed table would be most effective, the membership voted in favor. Meeting minutes record that \"the ayes have it\" and the motion passed; chairs noted at least one dissenting or abstaining voice but vote counts were not fully read into the record.

Members discussed scope and next steps: several chairs suggested a parade float to draw attention and follow‑up tabling at the Tamale Festival to capture contact information and recruit neighborhoods. Because budgets are limited, members said the float would likely require donated trucks or trailers and volunteer decorations.

An ad hoc planning group was formed from volunteers who raised their hands at the meeting; initial participants announced on the floor included Lisa, Larry, Sandy, Frank and the INCO chair (meeting chair is an automatic member of the committee). The committee will confirm membership and report back.

Chairs asked that the committee consider minimum participation requirements, meeting early to create a plan for signage, banners and a staffing schedule so the event would be effective as outreach to inactive neighborhoods.

Chairs said inconsistent instructions from city staff led to volunteers being turned away or asked to perform tasks they had not expected to do.

Deborah Arvallo, Southbank chair, said her neighborhood historically divided volunteer shifts into one‑hour blocks and provided sign‑in paperwork ahead of the event to speed processing. \"Last year, amazing time. This year, it was average,\" Arvallo said, adding that volunteers were told at the last minute to change the schedule and some were instructed not to lift items from vehicles. She said volunteers who expected to help felt unwelcome when they were refused.

Multiple speakers described a staff member they identified as Gloria instructing volunteers that they should not remove items from residents’ vehicles, but once items were in the street volunteers were expected to shove and organize material inside the bins. A resident who said she was injured said she was uncomfortable being asked to lift items; another speaker said staff had reportedly turned people away who had rented moving trucks to clear a deceased relative’s home.

Neighborhood chairs who had positive experiences said the city’s crew (City Corps or City staff) unloaded vehicles and volunteers staffed traffic control, outreach and sign‑in tables. Chairs requested uniform guidance so neighborhoods can advertise correctly and set volunteer expectations.

Brian Landers, Windsor North, said he met recently with city staff who advised volunteers should only direct traffic and capture contact information; he described that meeting as \"very, very positive.\" Several chairs asked staff to commit to attending an INCO meeting to present the city’s standard operating procedures, including expected end times, whether staff will unload rental trucks and what volunteers may and may not do.

INCO members also requested clarified rules on vehicle types (some chairs reported a policy that forbids rental trucks such as U‑Haul), whether businesses are permitted to use the service, and consistency around advertised end times. Several chairs said a staff member ended some events early despite people still waiting in line.

Members asked INCO to invite solid waste and parks staff to the next meeting to present written procedures and answer questions; multiple neighborhood chairs said that having the city unload and load at all locations would reduce confusion and increase attendance and goodwill.","Multiple neighborhood chairs reported inconsistent rules and uneven staff behavior at recent bulky‑item drop‑off events; INCO members requested city staff provide written standard operating procedures and attend a future meeting to clarify volunteer roles, hours and vehicle rules.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6519696,"Oxnard staff explain speed hump program; residents press for local fixes and timeline",1089,1631000,2720000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5348073-aa9827c260eb1ca0ee71727633b84e53&start=1631&end=2720","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5348073-aa9827c260eb1ca0ee71727633b84e53/thumbnail_1631000.jpg","/articles/6519696/Oxnard-City/Ventura-County/California/Oxnard-staff-explain-speed-hump-program-residents-press-for-local-fixes-and-timeline","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6519696-d5ef756a17bf3ed308fb2004352e5adb/orig.mp4?Expires=1775145826&Signature=SSyq~etfNenMDQOoA~XjUIYtV9fcN7-x4WRQTcFN01MM4unZPX0HJQyAIq8Bq-06G0xUgx-9U2g60X6AQ-7oz-TxnTRYcseU6yEeysvU7uXpht1HQhhNnggtLn93rvz8b4sABSRFJTgPEZeSMlnicKxDt3vqCqmbEgucNaPk~5y08I8xXO6oGOXSNb-YQdtBljrPNdrGtCHURn-GTvgtG1UW~BTyPjuITHooQo6o0DSVJWhpfjYX7E370-RNcsMZuiDNJjf42ZZCPCAbfDEnVH8zsEyBRVGNvA5roCVt6TWucQ01QFP1obW81Tn067yWVZRk5yfwq1qZ3IdTX6pMqQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City of Oxnard traffic engineering staff outlined the city’s speed hump program and fielded neighborhood questions about eligibility, timing and alternatives.

Jose Rivera and Miguel (last name given as Miguel Guillen in materials) of the City of Oxnard Traffic Engineering Division told INCO members the program began in October and that this is its third year. Rivera said a resident must submit an application for an uninterrupted street segment of at least 1,000 linear feet (no stop‑control intersections within that length). Staff then install traffic data collectors, review the speed distribution and look for one of two criteria to be met: the 80th percentile speed on the segment must be 32 mph or higher, or the segment must have two speed‑related collisions in the prior 12 months.

\"If those criteria are met, then we go into design and collect resident signatures,\" Rivera said. The design package is distributed to residents for signature; 67% of the properties along the segment must support installation for the city to install speed humps. Rivera said the humps are rubberized and bolted to pavement; crews install them without full street closures and staff estimated the product lasts more than 10 years.

Residents asked how long the overall process takes and what the physical installation requires. Rivera said a typical study takes about two months from start to finish, though procurement and scheduling may add time; initial pilot locations took up to 18 months because the program was new. He said physical installation is rapid because the humps are made of recycled rubber and are bolted to the road—no asphalt milling or extended closures are required.

Neighbors asked about alternatives where speed humps do not qualify. Rivera said the city uses striping and \"optical narrowing\" or traffic‑calming striping, and will consider other tools such as road diets. A resident requested study of a specific intersection for signal changes (arrows); staff said the signal operations team is already reviewing that location.

Several chairs reported prior applications: staff said two of four submitted streets in one neighborhood were approved and encouraged chairs to email staff to request reevaluation. Rivera and Miguel left business cards and application forms with neighborhood chairs.","City traffic engineering staff described eligibility, data collection and design steps for the speed hump program and answered resident questions about timing, materials and alternatives such as striping and roundabouts.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6519700,"Oxnard Police invite neighborhoods to National Night Out on Aug. 5",891,724000,1615000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5348073-aa9827c260eb1ca0ee71727633b84e53&start=724&end=1615","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5348073-aa9827c260eb1ca0ee71727633b84e53/thumbnail_724000.jpg","/articles/6519700/Oxnard-City/Ventura-County/California/Oxnard-Police-invite-neighborhoods-to-National-Night-Out-on-Aug-5","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6519700-f94963184e6cdd386869694307e29024/orig.mp4?Expires=1775145826&Signature=CV~M4pITQYEBtPE9uI0BVVpTPOtmRGz6Z-11kKqopAj0yH4M5456aYRvAhIjiTgqlgFXdKFVcGZqKAAy0ZPXdeM8ql0qgplUM1xliLibeI5~ksyR2JH1AbxAzjerUyesD9OX-8DxXJmwx~mfGTBbzypRI3nH4-YJ1RbHGBSt7-NEfvL3b3-j87YvD1k0tdCDdzbnCrpiY~LbtGerVlHT6z3SEOVqCcVLDKF8ShvdQ~HZ6YULNrsyuKjQ-CfbvXHIr8LDfrRju0k8-8X-CPi4f1stFswzKQKiOJ1215JHIxuUryfn2SEE4INeKVjsZ-WGul~h6wtiT1Uc7Msm33FAMg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Paul Carganilla, community affairs manager for the Oxnard Police Department, urged neighborhood councils to host or join National Night Out events on Aug. 5 as a way to deepen ties among neighbors and first responders. \"The best home security system is having a good relationship with your neighbors,\" Carganilla said, explaining the event’s origins and local goals.

Carganilla told the INCO general membership that the department coordinates beat officers and command staff to attend neighborhood gatherings and that, as of the meeting, 10 neighborhoods had signed up to host events. He said signups close on the coming Friday and that staff have emailed a sign‑up link to neighborhood chairs.

Several neighborhood chairs described low‑cost outreach strategies they have used in past years, including raffles solicited from nearby businesses, ice‑cream vendors, hot‑dog or taco carts, and donated chairs and tables. \"Raffle brings people out to National Night Out,\" said a neighborhood chair who described using local business donations to attract attendees. Others said accepted ideas include hiring a food truck, offering potlucks, or arranging kid activities such as face painting or bounce houses, noting permits and county health licensing may be required for vendors.

Some residents raised safety concerns this year because of increased federal activity in parts of the city; Carganilla acknowledged those worries and encouraged participants to attend only if they felt safe. He said the department welcomes any level of engagement and will support neighborhoods that choose a low‑profile or at‑home approach.

Carganilla said he will try to visit all events between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. to photograph and share department participation on social media.

Organizers and attendees were advised to check with planning and parks staff about permits for inflatables and with county public health for food vendors. The department and city staff have provided guidance by email to neighborhood chairs.","The Oxnard Police Department encouraged neighborhood participation in National Night Out on Aug. 5, describing the event as a way to strengthen neighbor and public‑safety relationships; signups close the coming Friday.","actionData","errors"]
