DISCUSSION OF CONSENT CALENDAR ITEM 5.11
Mayor Pro Tem Armenta indicated she did not realize Agenda Item 5.H was under
the Consent Calendar, however, since it was already approved, she reiterated her
previous concerns with allocating additional funding to St. Francis Electric within
less than a year time frame; emphasized the importance of the Directors to obtain
all of Council's concerns (past and present)related to a specific matter.
Director of Public Works Alfonso clarified that Item 5.H is not pertaining to the
contract with St. Francis Electric for Traffic Signal Maintenance, rather it is a
construction contract with PTM General Engineering Services, Inc., to complete
the Traffic Signal Improvements at Valley Boulevard and Ivar Avenue; asserted
due to the relocation of a traffic signal pole necessitated by an overhead building
obstruction, the overall project cost will exceed the construction contingency.

a completely different project.

Page 9 of 13
In response to Council Member Ly, Mr. Boecking asserted the end goal is to
incorporate this program as an Administrative Policy.
Mayor Clark opened the Public Comment period.
Speaker Brian Lewin indicated support for the program; urged Council to add
stronger language to Guideline 1. "The program is reserved for memorial purposes
only for individuals who resided in Rosemead at some time in their life, or who
provided public service to the community of Rosemead". Mr. Lewin opined you
are essentially memorializing that person, so a stronger merit is needed, especially
since people will perceive it as the City is endorsing it.
Speaker Betty Kwan ascertained there is a ten-year guarantee of bench maintenance
and plaque replacement, however noted there was not a replacement guideline for
trees in the draft policy; suggested the City define and separate "serving the
community" and "civic duty", such as serving the community is everything other
than voting and paying your property tax. ,
There being no other comments, Mayor Clark closed the Public Comment period.
In response to Mayor Clark's inquiry, Director of Parks and Recreation Boecking
advised that the Cities of South Pasadena and Monrovia have this program, which
begins with an application process based off certain criteria and then goes through
an Administrative review period from City staff or the Parks Commission.
Council Member Ly provided background as to how this program came about from
a resident whose mother passed away that volunteered many years to assisting the
Boy Scout Program in Rosemead; indicated support for the Parks Commission to
review the requests.
Mayor Clark expressed concern since many of the Parks Commissioners are new,
they may run into the issue of not understanding an applicant's significance to
the City.
Mayor Pro Tern Armenta indicated with a biography attached to the application,
our Parks Commissioners will be able to vet which merit for approval.
Council Member Ly suggested running a pilot for the first year where the Parks
Commission brings their recommendations to Council for consideration and
reexamine the reviewal process to determine if the Commission should have sole
authority.
In response to Council Member Dang, Mr. Boecking confirmed the City would
absorb the cost of regular maintenance for the bench; clarified if the bench is
damaged beyond repair, the donor is not required to replace the bench, however, it
would be the owner's responsibility to replace it if so desired.

In response to Mayor Clark, Mr. Boecking asserted if something happened to the
tree,the City would replace it.
City Attorney Richman urged staff to prepare a waiver for donors to sign,
acknowledging that the City retains oversight and maintenance of the tree
and bench.
City Manager Molleda informed Council that this item will be presented to the
Parks Commission next month in May.
In response to Council Member Low's inquiry,Council Member Ly indicated there
are three levels of approval that all applicants must go through.
Mayor Pro Tem Armenta emphasized we need to be clear with the policies as we
are setting the precedence for this program.
Council Member Ly made a motion to approve the draft Memorial Bench and Tree
Program policy with the following amendments: "The Director Parks Commission
shall have the authority to accept or deny memorial bench or tree applications and
ensures all guidelines are met. The City Council will ratify all approvals or denials
for the first year and will revisit this item thereafter."

amended. Motion was carried out by the following vote AYES: Armenta, Clark,

the former green background to the current white background with maroon writing;

event, particularly for separating the age groups in different areas; noted that
Rosemead became a party in interest in the Gardena lawsuit on the stormwater
regulations, in which the judge ruled in our favor.
Council Member Ly applauded Mayor Clark's lone efforts and diligence in seeing
this stormwater matter through.
