Summary
Trustees instructed staff to prioritize safety topics and city collaboration, including asking for clarity on patrol routing and schedules, the proximity and services of an alleged tiny‑cabins/social‑service site near a childcare center, weekend security at the recreation center bathrooms, and beautification/partnership items.
Trustees preparing for a joint meeting with the City of Lemon Grove asked staff on Oct. 21 to emphasize several community-safety and partnership issues.
Trustees said they want clarity from city officials about patrol routes and timing near school sites and asked that the district be informed about any social-service or temporary-housing "tiny cabins" proposals near district childcare facilities. Trustee Miller specifically urged the board to ensure the city and county consider proximity to the Little Lemons Child Education Center when planning social-service sites.
Trustee Smith recommended the district seek a seat at any county/city table addressing nearby services, and trustees also requested the city consider providing security at the recreation center bathrooms on weekends to keep that shared facility available for community use. Trustee Miller suggested continued beautification and display of school identity on main streets as part of the partnership conversation.
Superintendent Vincent confirmed the joint meeting is customary and that two board members (Trustee Smith and Trustee Miller) serve on the collaboration committee; trustees instructed staff to prepare an agenda that foregrounds safety, the tiny-cabins topic and rec-center needs.
