San Bruno City Council Meeting April 13, 2010
4. Presentations
A
Four
of
them
resulted
in
fatalities
and
whereas,
although
these
these
numbers
are
much
lower
than
recent
years,
the
State
Department
of
Public
Health
and
the
Centers
for
Disease,
Control
and
Prevention
predict
West.
Nile
virus
will
again
pose
a
grave
public
health
threat
to
California
2010
and
whereas
adequately
funded
mosquito
and
Vector
Control
disease,
surveillance
and
public
awareness
programs
are
the
best
way
to
prevent
outbreaks
of
West
Nile
virus
and
other
diseases
borne
by
mosquitoes
none
of
the
vectors
and
whereas
the
mosquito
and
Vector
Control
Association
of
California
has
designated
the
week
of
april.
Nineteen.
A
Through
april
25th
2010
be
designated
as
West
Nile
virus
mosquito
and
Vector
Control
awareness
weekend
now.
Therefore,
I
Jimmy
Wayne,
mayor
of
the
city
of
San
Bruno,
proclaimed
the
week
of
April
nineteenth
through
April
25th
2010
as
West
Nile
virus
and
mosquito
and
Vector
Control
Awareness
Week
in
the
city
of
San
Bruno,
and
call
upon
all
employees
and
citizens
to
join
me
in
the
effort
to
diminish
the
risk
to
our
community's
health
and
safety.
And
I
would
like
to
present
this
to
mr.
Robert
gay.
B
It's
always
a
great
honor,
coming
back
and
seeing
the
cities
during
this
month.
Unfortunately,
for
us
this
is
a
pretty
busy
month
for
us,
especially
with
all
the
rains.
We've
been
battling,
mosquitoes
all
over
the
county.
For
the
last
six
weeks
I
had
to
amend
our
budget
double
the
amount
of
chemicals
we've
been
purchasing
for
the
bio
larvicides.
It's
also
been
a
pretty
exciting
month
for
us
in
the
legislature.
B
As
you
well
know,
your
city
was
one
of
the
few
cities
that
actually
send
support
letters
for
our
Yamada
pill
and
our
Yamada
bill
is
a
very,
very
important
bill.
Hopefully
it
will
prevent
the
state
from
purchasing
lands
in
the
future
and
not
have
it
set
up
to
where
they're,
using
the
best
management
mosquito
practices
to
cover
those
lands.
So,
hopefully
that'll
be
it's
gone
through
the
profession
and
business
committee
at
11
0
boat.
B
So
it
should
be
honest
way
to
conclusion,
hopefully
for
us,
and
also
with
your
help,
we
were
able
to
put
an
end
to
the
Swanson
bill,
which
is
the
one
that
was
going
to
prevent
the
use
of
our
products
around
schools.
We
get
called
by
schools
every
week
to
go
control,
Yellow,
Jackets
and
hornets
on
the
school
grounds
and
mosquitoes,
and
this
bill
would
have
prevented
us
from
providing
any
kind
of
services
associated
with
your
schools,
so
we
did
get
a
full
exemption.
Thank
you
for
your
letter
that
you
sent
to
the
Swanson.
B
That
was
big
support
for
us
now.
The
other
thing
we
really
want
to
thank
you
for
is
a
trustee
that
you
put
on
our
board
mr.
Robert
regal.
He
is
a
true
advocate
of
your
city.
He
is
very,
very
active
on
our
board.
He
heads
up
the
policy
committee
which
nobody
wants
to
be
on
and
he
does
an
incredible
job
at
it.
So
I
just
wanted
to
acknowledge
that.
Thank
you
very
much
for
keep
reappointing
him
yet
term
after
term.
B
We
need
him,
and
hopefully
with
Robert,
and
some
of
the
other
trustees
would
kick
up
to
the
level.
He
operates
that
it's
amazing
what
we'd
be
able
to
get
done.
So
we've
been
very
fortunate
so
far
this
year
the
rain
is
causing
everybody
a
lot
of
worry
with
West
Nile
virus.
As
you
well
know,
we
have
had
no
human
cases
in
San,
Mateo
County.
B
The
approach
we've
always
taken
is
attacked
the
vector
the
mosquito
and
if
we
attack
the
vector
and
keep
the
populations
low
enough,
we
can
prevent
the
cycle
of
West
Nile
virus
and
we've
been
able
to
do
that
to
date.
But
we're
expecting
serious
concern
now,
probably
in
the
east
bay
area.
This
year
is
where
we
will
probably
see
a
rather
significant
increase
in
the
West
Nile
virus
human
cases.
So
thank
you
very
much
for
your
support
and
we
look
forward
to
another
exciting
year.
Any
questions
any.
