Public comment highlights: historical tours, food drives and calls to revisit RV rules
Summary
At the San Dimas council meeting, residents promoted a historical-society walking tour, a Rotary food drive and library programs; one longtime resident urged the council to reconsider restrictions on parking recreational vehicles in driveways.
Public comment at the San Dimas City Council meeting included neighborhood announcements and appeals on local ordinances and services.
Margie Green, past president of the San Dimas Historical Society, invited residents to a walking tour at the Walker House in downtown San Dimas on Feb. 8 and described museum and volunteer hours.
John Houser, a resident of more than 50 years, asked the council to revisit the city’s recreational-vehicle ordinance, arguing that current restrictions make it difficult for fixed-income residents to store boats or motor homes nearby and pointing to neighboring cities that have eased restrictions.
Raymond Foster of the Rotary described recent food-drive efforts, reporting San Dimas volunteers have collected more than 27 tons of food over the last four years and announcing a March 8 drive serving several military installations. He also invited council members to the consolidated Teacher of the Year event on May 6.
Pete Lewis described a MetroLink schedule change that increased trains passing San Dimas and noted passenger disruptions on the first day of the new schedule. Margot Tannenbaum from the San Dimas Library summarized upcoming library programs, including a FAFSA workshop and a Lunar New Year reading.
The council heard these comments before moving into consent items and later agenda business.
