A
Okay,
reasonably
synchronized
very,
have
the
roll
call
please.
C
I'll
come
back
to
him
director
jones
here
director
nichols
yes
chairsuke
here
and
do
we
have
director
huffer.
A
Well,
let's
proceed
and
he'll
join
us
when
he
can.
I
don't
think
we
have
any
presentations
and
announcements.
Do
we,
mr
stark.

E
Okay,
thank
you.
Yes,
elaine
hagen,
representing
the
canejo
open
space
foundation.
I
wanted
to
let
you
know
that,
even
though
trails
education
days
was
canceled
again
this
spring,
the
foundation
didn't
want
to
let
it
pass
without
doing
something.
So
we
worked
with
animal
actors
of
hollywood
to
create
a
video
of
the
native
animals
workshop
that
they
present
every
year
and
we
were
really
fortunate
david
granis
who's.
E
The
associate
professor
and
director
of
the
film
and
television
program
at
clu
happened
to
be
on
sabbatical
this
semester,
so
he
volunteered
to
make
the
video
for
us
and
he
did
an
incredibly
wonderful
professional
job
as
you
might
expect,
and
we
truly
are
appreciative
and
grateful
for
his
efforts.
E
The
video
is
in
distribution
at
co
at
cdusd
now,
along
with
the
nature
hype,
video
that
we
produced
last
year,
so
the
fourth
graders
will
have
an
opportunity,
even
though
they
miss
their
field.
Trips
they'll
get
a
taste
of
what
they
would
have
experienced
through
these
two
video
presentations
also
for
future
years.
Both
videos
will
be
useful
for
any
students
who
might
have
missed
who
might
miss
their
field
trips,
so
both
videos
are
available.
E
C
C
B
Gonna
share
the
share.
The
website
address
oops.
Well,
I
guess
I
can't
pull
that
slide
up
at
this
moment.
But
yes,
casa.org
is
the
place
to
go.
A
A
We
have
one
public
comment
card
from
mark.
The
czech
and
mr
litchak
wanted
us
to
know
that
he
is
dissatisfied
with
the
decision
at
the
last
meeting
not
to
convene
of
a
new
wildwood
committee.
So
we
we
take
his
his
comment
and
that
will
be
filed.
A
G
A
D
A
H
G
G
A
Yes,
now
we'll
go
to
action
items
anna
will
you
fill
us
in
on
the
trails
advisory
committee,
appointments.
I
I
The
recruitment
period
was
initiated
on
march
9th
when
the
city
clerk's
department,
posted
the
customary
vacancy
notice
and
issued
a
press
release
to
announce
the
recruitment
for
vacancies.
Recruitment
information
was
also
posted
on
city
and
costco
social
media
platforms,
published
in
the
city's
city
scene
newsletter
and
shared
via
email
with
existing
costac
members.
The
kanejo
open
space
foundation
and
costco's
trail
watch
and
adopt
a
trail
program.
Participants,
outreach
to
adelante
comunidad
conejo,
we
belong,
805
thrive,
kaneho,
kaneho,
unidos
resistance,
805
and
the
local
chumash
community
also
occurred
via
the
city.
I
Clerk's
department
staff
received
nine
applications
during
the
30-day
recruitment
period.
One
application
was
from
an
incumbent,
costac
member
one
was
from
an
incumbent
alternate
and
seven
were
from
new
applicants.
Once
all
applicants
were
interviewed
by
the
interview
committee,
the
results
were
forwarded
to
the
nomination
subcommittee
for
determination
of
nominees.
I
For
members,
the
subcommittee
recommends
carl
colvin
back
tom
becker
and
david
filgus
carl,
is
a
mountain
biker
and
is
currently
coordinating
box
restocking
efforts
for
costco's
bike
bell
program.
He
also
has
a
strong
interest
in
helping
new
visitors
to
open
space,
learn
about
trail,
courtesy
and
etiquette.
I
I
Doug
is
a
hiker
who
is
interested
in
sharing
the
benefits
of
open
space
with
others
and
giving
back
to
the
community.
Susan
is
a
hiker
and
currently
participates
in
trail
watch
and
trails
education
days.
Chris
is
a
mountain
biker
who
enjoys
interacting
with
people
and
is
interested
in
participating
in
betrayal's.
A
D
I
I
was
curious
to
no,
I
think
there
are,
I
guess,
the
five
different
organizations
that
were
indicated.
The
information
was
shared
to
was
that,
because
they
requested
information
or
was
that
the
group
that
was
selected
to
distribute
it
to.
I
D
There,
any,
I
guess,
I'd
say
rationalities
in
a
positive
sense,
was
there
some
reason
why
that
group
is
opposed
to
other
groups.
I
There
were
several
groups
if,
if
you'd
like,
I
can
name
them
again
well,.
D
It
just
seems
like
it
was
a
I
was
looking
at
this
and
you
know
I
don't
really
see
anything
connected
to
open
space
or
you
know
trails
or
things
like
that
right.
So
I
just
curious.
How
did
that
group
get
selected
for
notifications.
I
The
the
let's
see,
half
a
dozen
or
so
groups
that
the
city
clerk's
office
performed
outreach
to
are
the
same
groups
that
they
also
reach
out
to
for
other
city-related
things
and,
and
the
city
clerk's
office
is
doing
that
in
relation
to
the
city's
interest
in
promoting
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion.
D
D
Is
that
a
trend
that
you're
we're
not
getting
interesting
interests
from
the
equestrian
community,
or
is
it
just
not
that
many
of
them
out
there
or
is
that
just
happenstance.
I
They
I
have
heard
anecdotally
that
their
numbers
perhaps
are
shrinking
a
little
bit.
We
have
active
equestrians
that
currently
participate
in
trail
watch
and
adopt
a
trail,
which
is
why
an
effort
or
which
was
why
an
email
was
sent
specifically
to
those
groups
to
alert
them
of
the
open
recruitment
period
in
hopes
that
the
equestrians
that
are
currently
participating
would
share
the
information
with
with
other
people
who
ride
horses.
I
Certainly,
certainly
hikers
and
mountain
bikers
are
accessing,
or
you
know,
coming
across
our
information,
and
I
would
think
that
equestrians
who
are
aware
of
open
space
would
be
able
to
access
the
same
information.
D
Well,
that's
where
I
would
expect
you
know,
aside
from
this
list
that
you
pointed
out
for
the
city's
outreach.
I
would
expect
that
there
would
be
some
outreach.
You
know
on
that
behalf
to
hiker
groups,
to
you
know,
naturalist
groups,
to
biker
groups
to
equestrian
groups
and
just
seemed
like
it
was
a
rather
unusual
list
to
try
to
recruit
those
types
of
interest
groups.
So
maybe
that's
something
we
can
look
into
in
the
future.
I
Well,
typically,
our
outreach
we
have.
We
have
extensive
following
these
days
on
our
social
media,
and
that
includes
instagram
and
facebook
and
in
addition
to
sending
out
the
information
to
volunteers
who
are
currently
active
in
our
programs,
we
have
not
done
targeted
outreach
just
specifically
to
hiking
groups
or
specifically,
two
mountain
biking
groups,
because
the
pool
of
applicants
that
we've
been
receiving
seems
to
be
pretty
satisfactory.
In
fact,
the
the
selection
this
year
was
quite
competitive.
F
I'd
I'd
like
to
follow
up
on
what
director
nichols
mentioned
the
during
there
were
seven
new
applicants
and
were
there
any
other
equestrians
in
this
pool
of
applicants?
No,
there
were
not.
They
were
not
okay
and
then
I
I
do
realize
that
this
list
of
outreach
includes
communities
that
contact
a
city
on
a
regular
basis
or
or
groups
that
contact
the
city
on
a
regular
basis
and
and
it
would
be
part,
I
would
imagine
that
of
the
city's
new
goal
for
diversity
and
inclusion.
I
We
did
not
ask
in
during
the
interviews
where
they
heard
of
the
solicitation,
so
I
we
don't
have
data
on
in
that
regard.
Okay,
our
interview
questions
pertain
more
to
the
applicant's
familiarity
with
open
space
with
costac,
with
costco
our
organizational
functions,
and
things
like
that.
Okay,.
F
Well,
since
we're
kind
of
lean
on
the
number
of
equestrians
in
our
positions,
I
was
wondering
whether
it
would
be
possible
to
perhaps
do
a
targeted
outreach
toward
or
at
equestrians.
Would
that
really
be
very
much
out
of
the
norm?
I
mean
it
seems
that
the
numbers
are
shrinking.
The
number
of
equestrians
is
shrinking,
so
I
thought
perhaps,
would
be
good
to
reach
out
to
them
also
directly.
F
The
next
search
all
right-
and
I
think
that
was
it-
I
would
move
to
approve
the
recommendation
of
the
subcommittee's
recommendations.
Oh
second,.
A
All
right,
thank
you.
If
no
other
discussion,
roll
call
vote,
please.
B
Thank
you
ma'am,
chair
members
of
the
board.
This
is
a
quick
update
on
our
fire
safety
outreach
project.
C
B
All
right,
thank
you
very
much
at
the
costco
board
of
directors
meeting
on
october
20th
of
2020,
the
board
authorized
execution
of
a
contract
with
the
ventura
regional
fire,
safe
council
to
produce
educational
content
and
fire
safety
services
for
our
community
funding
for
the
program
was
appropriated
from
the
woolsey
fire
recovery
fund.
The
program
provides
both
educational
opportunities
in
the
form
of
free
webinars
for
residents
and
assistants
in
disposing
of
flammable
vegetation
adjacent
to
homes
at
a
series
of
free
chipper
days.
B
I
thought
I'd
leave
this
slide
up
here,
so
people
could
take
a
look
at
our
upcoming
schedule
of
events.
Two
webinars
have
already
been
presented.
One
was
about
general
disaster
preparedness
that
we
organized
in
partnership
with
the
red
cross
and
another
was
presented
on
fire
insurance
and
wildfire
risk,
and
we
had
a
unique
opportunity
to
connect
with
the
california
insurance
commissioner's
office.
On
that
to
provide
a
lot
of
information,
we
had
36
attendees
at
the
at
the
fire,
insurance
and
10
in
the
in
the
general
disaster
preparedness.
B
Our
advertising
is
ramping
up,
though,
so
we
expect
that
these
will
continue
to
draw
more
people,
two
more
on
the
calendar
and
we'll
cover
waterwise
and
firewise
landscaping.
That's
coming
up
tomorrow
evening
should
be
very
interesting
and
the
final
one
in
the
series
will
be
the
home
ex
ignition
zone,
evaluations
and
home
hardening
that
will
be
presented
on
june
24th,
the
first
free
down
at
the
bottom.
I've
also
put
some
web
addresses.
B
People
could
look
at
we've
been
in
touch
with
other
organizations
like
the
ventura
county
resource
conservation
district
and
the
santa
monica
mountains,
resource
conservation
district.
So
we're
coordinating
a
lot
of
our
advertising
and
noticing,
because
all
of
us
are
doing
some
similar
programming,
so
we're
working
together
to
try
and
make
sure
everybody
has
an
opportunity
to
participate
in
one
of
these.
These
webinars,
the
first
free
shipper
day,
was
held
on
april.
B
24Th
turnout
was
a
little
less
than
we'd
hoped
to
get
despite
extensive
advertising,
but
we
have
diversified
our
advertising
approach
a
little
bit
here
and
we
hope
that
that'll
open
the
event
to
some
more
people.
It
could
be.
That
april
was
a
little
early
in
the
year
for
people
to
be
thinking
about
the
wildfire
risk,
but
seeing
as
we
had
a
wildfire
last
week,
that
might
enhance
interest
in
that
kind
of
thing
too.
B
So
far,
10
volunteers
have
met
all
the
qualifications
to
to
pass
the
instructors
course,
and
we
have
46
homeowners
that
have
expressed
interest
in
in
signing
up
this.
That
information
is
still
going
out
where
we
anticipated,
when
we
did
the
contract
doing
about
50
of
these.
So
we
hope
that
number
will
stay
solid
for
us,
but
there
seems
to
be
some
good
good
interest
there.
B
A
few
other
fire
related
items
since
we're
on
the
topic
here.
On
april
19th,
we
had
the
county
fire
burned.
Approximately
28
acres
of
costco
open
space
in
the
north
range.
B
B
As
you
can
see,
we
did
experience
some
some
pretty
heavy
damage
in
this
one
area.
We
do
anticipate
having
some
enhanced
erosion
control
responsibilities
in
the
coming
rainy
season,
as
well
as
some
weed.
You
know
weed
removal
and
effort
to
try
to
make
sure
that
when
this
area
starts
recovering
that
we're
able
to
retain
the
native
plant
life,
that
was
there
before
that
will
probably
the
erosion
control
will
take
part
in
the
fall
and
the
weed
management
will
begin
in
the
spring
of
2020..
B
B
I'm
also
really
excited
that
koska
received
unanimous
support
at
the
santa
monica
mountains,
conservancy
board
meeting
this
week
for
a
grant
to
remove
arundo
and
fan
palms
from
a
portion
of
royal
canajo
creek.
The
grant
amount
is
a
125
000
and
staff
will
be
coming
back
to
this
board
for
matching
funds
at
our
september
meeting.
The
the
work
out
there
you
know
and
brooks
can
meets
a
number
of
goals
for
costco.
B
Not
only
will
it
improve
our
habitat
as
we
remove,
you
know
invasive
species,
but
it
does
reduce
fire
risks.
Oftentimes
riparian
areas
can
slow
down
the
spread
of
fires
because
of
the
high,
so
the
high
moisture
levels
in
the
plants,
butter,
rondo
and
and
the
palms
really
allow
fire
to
travel
right
through
riparian
areas
and
removing
these
species
will
really
be
helpful
in
that
area.
B
Palms,
of
course,
have
very
easily
ignited
fronds
that
are
little
sails
and
they
are
carried
very
long
distances
and
can
trans
they
have
the
density
to
transmit
fire
and
and
present
a
threat
to
homes.
So
we're
anticipating
the
project
could
ultimately
result
in
the
removal
of
about
two
acres
of
rondo
and
we
can
get
all
the
palms
in
about
a
half
mile
of
the
creek.
B
G
B
C
F
Thank
you.
My
question
is
for
brian
about
the
cost
that
you
submitted
to
the
police
department.
What
was
the
amount
of
that
cost.
B
It
was
approximately
twenty
thousand
dollars,
but
it's
anticipated
it.
What
it's
anticipated
to
cover
is
erosion
control.
Primarily
you
know
when
the
firefighting
happens
and
bulldozers
run
across
costco
property,
we'll
need
to
repair
the
dozer
scar.
B
We
did
lose
some
signage
in
there
and
a
small
foot
bridge
fires.
You
know,
don't
immediately
remind
people
like
landslides
and
stuff,
but
actually
debris
moves
around
during
fire
events,
and
so
the
trails
get
covered
and
debris
falls
on
them.
So
there's
costs
for
doing
some,
some
trail
recovery
and
repair.
C
Oh,
I'm
sorry
just
to
I'm
sorry,
just
to
dovetail
on
what
mr
stark
was
talking
about.
The
amount
that
was
submitted
to
the
police
is
going
to
be
part
of
the
package
that
is
presented
to
the
district
attorney
for
their
case
and
that
will
alert
the
district
attorney
that
we,
as
the
victim
property
owners,
are
seeking
victim
restitution
in
the
matter
and
that's
how
we
are
hopeful
to
recover
those
funds.
Sorry
for
interrupting.
D
Yes,
thank
you,
madam
chair.
I
had
a
question
regarding
the
chipper
days
and
I
know
you
had
a
series
of
those
and
perhaps
you
I
think
you
said
you
had
one
that
passed
in
april.
D
Brian
are
those
targeted
like
certain
neighborhoods,
which
maybe
lend
themselves
more
towards
that
type
of
need,
because
you
know,
obviously,
throughout
the
city
we
have
certain
neighborhoods
that
really
have
virtually
nothing
to
do
in
their
own
backyard,
and
it's
only
in
the
open
space
that
maybe
you
need
some
attention
or
perhaps
even
limited
there
because
of
fuel
modification
zones.
But
it
seems
like
that.
Maybe
should
just
be
a
targeted
approach
based
on
you
know
the
type
of
land
or
the
type
of
neighborhood
or
the
you
know
whether
it
be
adjacent
to
open
space.
D
I'm
wondering
how
that
that
approach
is
being
addressed
to
the
homeowners
themselves.
B
Well,
we
started
out
with
sort
of
a
broader
net
on
here,
because
the
area
that's
actually
considered
a
high
fire
hazard
severity
zone
around
the
city
actually
incorporates
much
of
the
city.
B
So
we
kind
of
took
a
broad
brush
approach
there.
We
have
met
with
the
fire,
safe
council
and
have
these
are
very
well
attended
and
in
other
parts
of
the
county,
but
we
we
have
discussed
potential
ways
of
targeting
some
of
these
things
or
bringing
an
event
right
to
a
neighborhood.
B
It's
a
little
bit
hard
to
do
just
because
of
the
traffic
they
generate
and
noise.
You
know
they
got
a
chipper
running
all
day,
so
you
know
we
focused
on
having
these
at
static
sites
that
could
accommodate
the
traffic,
because
we
still
have
three
more
to
head
out.
We
anticipate
you
know
if
we
need
to
to
modify
how
these
are
organized
to
see
if
driving
up
interest,
I
think
part
of
it
was
just
you
know
we
did
pretty
extensive
advertising,
but
we
hope
to
get
more
of
that
out.
B
B
I
have
a
few
updates
on
the
current
activities
and
sort
of
an
explanation
of
our
our
delays.
The
city
of
public
works
department
is
working
on
some
minor
ultra
modifications
of
the
design
to
comply
with
some
updated
seismic
standards.
B
B
The
city's
proposed
capital
improvements
budget
coming
for
the
coming
next
two
fiscal
years
does
include
funding
for
the
project,
so
there
were
some
prior
funding
gaps
that
had
been
identified
and
those
have
been
filled
since
that
time,
costco
has
retained
rincon
consultants
to
update
our
mitigated,
negative
declaration,
our
sql
document,
and
to
perform
an
updated
biological
assessment
of
the
project
area
and
a
larger
buffer
area.
B
These
two
needs
were
being
done
to
address
items
requested
by
the
california
department
of
fish
and
wildlife
in
their
comments
on
the
first
mitigated
negative
declaration,
since
it
appeared
at
that
time
that
that
the
department
of
fish
and
wildlife
wanted
to
see
more
work
in
this
in
the
secret
document.
Before
approving
the
permit,
we
decided
just
to
to
bring
in
the
consulting
firm
to
to
bolster
our
our
case
and
help
us
develop
the
mitigation
needs.
B
So
once
we
complete
these
steps,
then
we're
pretty
confident
that
the
department
of
fish
and
wildlife
will
release
the
project.
Permit.
B
B
B
B
The
project
lead
is
the
city
of
thousand
oaks
public
works
department.
So
that's
why
these
the
projects
and
the
sql
documents
are
running
through
the
city
once
sql
is
complete.
We
anticipate
getting
the
finalized
permit,
so
we'll
have
the
permitting
done,
probably
by
september
october,
but
the
bidding
process
and
the
contracting
process
for
the
department
of
public
works
is
about
a
three-month
project
and
that
would
send
project
construction
beginning
into
january
2022
and
a
week
a
month
later,
we'd
be
entering
the
bird
nesting
season
and
the
bird
nesting
season
is
where
we
would.
B
Our
project
would
have
the
highest
potential
for
environmental
impacts
and
would
also
come
at
greater
cost,
as
there
would
have
to
be
a
full-time
monitoring
on
that
area.
Scheduling
the
construction
to
start
in
september
october
of
22
provides
more
time
to
get
the
project
completed
outside
of
the
highest
impact
season
and
at
the
most
economical
cost.
I
will
take
any
questions
you
have
on
that
at
this
point,.
D
D
We
were
informed
that
was
being
delayed
to
the
spring
of
2022,
for
capital,
improvement,
funding,
delays
and
other
reasons,
and
before
that
there
was
a
delay,
and
I'm
just
you
know,
looking
at
this
collection
of
delays,
it
seems
like
it's
been
one
to
two
years,
if
not
more,
of
delays
short
of
a
miracle
this
happening
tomorrow,
which
is
not
going
to
happen,
is
there
any
type
of
alternative
temporary
means
of
providing
access
from
the
santa
rosa
county
park
parking
lot
into
the
wildwood
area
such
that
you
could
start
advertising
that
site
as
the
address
today,
as
opposed
to
waiting
for
the
bridge
to
try
and
alleviate
some
of
these
ongoing
issues
that
we
have
with
the
wildwood
parking
lot.
D
I
know
in
the
past
you
mentioned:
there's
concerns
over
the
public
accessing
the
road
which
I
understand
is
it's
narrow
and
a
challenge,
but
I'm
just
questioning
if
there's
some
type
of
delineators
or
dividers,
or
something
that
you
could
separate
traffic,
that
would
you
know,
keep
the
trail
users
safe
and
yet
still
you
know
be
able
to
advertise
that
address.
I'm
just
wondering
you
may
have
already
thought
of
these
things
and
assessed
them
all.
So
maybe
you
can
lighten
me
on
on
that
process.
D
B
This
the
delays
are
certainly
frustrating,
I
think,
for
all
parties
involved.
You
know
we're
highly
motivated
to
get
this
work
done,
and
it's
a
very
important
project
for
costco
and
our
part,
the
city
public
works
department
as
well.
I
think
if
we
thought
there
was
a
way
that
we
could
safely
move
people
through
and
across
the
creek
up
in
that
location.
B
You
know
we
probably
would
have
done
that
already.
The
topography
and
the
channel
shape
up
in
that
region
is
just
not
amenable
to
to
trail
work
and
having
and
the
the
streams
rather
wide
there,
and
you
know,
because
that's
downstream
there's
safety
concerns
and
trying
to
have
people
walking
across
the
creek
at
that
location,
and
you
know
the
damages
that
might
be
caused
by
putting
trails
down
there
as
to
bringing
people
up
along
the
road.
That's
that
that's
more
of
a
road
design
issue.
B
B
D
No,
no
you're
you're,
absolutely
right
just
trying
to
explore.
You
know
any
all
opportunities,
the
more
and
more
delays
that
we
get,
and
yet
we
still
continue
to
get
pressure
regarding
the
parking
lot
just
trying
to
find,
if
there's
any
type
of
temporary
solution
that
maybe
hasn't
been
explored.
Yet-
and
I
know
you
folks-
have
done
yeoman's
job
to
try
and
do
that,
but
just
trying
to
find
some,
some
hope
to
you
know
solve
the
immediate
issue
in
hopes
of
a
permanent
solution.
So
appreciate
your
your
time
with
that,
I.
C
E
Hey
brian,
if
I
may
board
member
nichols
part
of
the
challenge
with
the
road,
of
course
is.
It
is
not
built
to
public
road
standards,
so
you
know
to
open
that
up
creates
certainly
some
potential
liability.
E
The
other
thing
is
that
road
does
get
some
pretty
significant
use
from
heavy
vehicles,
because
we
deliver
fog,
fats,
oils
and
grease
to
our
treatment
plant
there
to
generate
some
energy.
So
it
is
a
bit
of
a
challenge.
We.
We
share
your
concerns,
as
brian's
mentioned,
we're
we're
equally
frustrated.
If
that's
the
right
word
with
respect
to
some
of
the
delays
that
have
been
occurring,
but
you
know
we
continue
to
work
diligently
and
you
know
we
would
be
very
pleased
to
have
this
move
along
much
much
more
timely
than
it
has.
G
Well,
you
are,
do
you
mean
to
say
that
we
can
never
use
that
as
an
entrance
to
the
wildwood
regional
park.
E
What
I'm
saying
is
that
road
is
not
built
for
public
standard,
so
it's
it
is
not
a
road
that
is
designed
by
its
very
nature
for
public.
You
know
access.
G
Well,
when
we
speak
of
of
an
alternative
site
for
people
to
come
to
access
the
park,
were
you
speaking
of
up
in
rancho
caneo
area
near
our.
B
I
think
I
could
clarify
this.
The
the
public
road
that
people
will
use
is
the
same
road
they're
using
today
that
comes
up
off
of
santa
rosa
road
and
it
the
public
part
of
that
terminates
at
the
current
parking
lot
for
the
hill
canyon
trailhead.
So
that
part
of
the
road
is
all
settled.
You
know,
we've
got
people
up
to
san
rosa
valley
park
and
our
parking
lot
to
handle
people
as
far
as
they
get
their
car.
B
G
Well,
I've
been
to
that
parking
lot
for
a
couple
different
functions
we
held
there.
People
could
drive
to
that
parking
lot
and
then
walk
from
there.
Couldn't
they.
B
Well,
that's
what
that's
the
ultimate
plan,
but
they
can't
walk
up.
The
road
is
what
we're
saying
we
can't
accommodate
pedestrians
along
the
road,
so
the
well.
The
plan
is
to
route
them
over
the
the
bridge.
We
have
now
to
come
up.
The
other
side
of
the
creek
then
come
back
over.
At
that
point,
there
will
be
a
single
crossing
of
of
the
trail
that
can
be
well
marked
and
in
a
safe
location.
G
B
C
G
G
B
B
B
B
G
Well,
I
I
mean
I,
I
don't
need
to
state
the
obvious.
Everybody
knows
the
obvious,
so
I
won't
say
it
okay.
Thank
you.
A
Other
comments
or
questions
of
mr
stark
hearing,
none.
Thank
you.
Brian.
Let's
go
on
to
the
volunteer
core
activity,
miss
uber.
I
I
I
Yes,
it
is,
and
what's
interesting
is
for
this
particular
period,
which
is
february
through
april
in
2019
and
2020.
The
volunteer
hours
and
number
of
reports
filed
for
trail
watch
were
fairly
consistent
with
each
other,
but
this
year
they're
both
about
50
percent,
higher.
C
I
A
H
I
do
have
a
powerpoint:
oh
it's
up
all
right
cool,
so
we
have
a
ranger
report.
First
off
I'm
just
going
to
talk
about
wheat
abatement,
we're
on
schedule
this
year,
we're
approximately
50
done.
We,
the
parcels
are
scheduled
because
there's
a
lot
of
things
that
have
to
happen.
We
go
through
and
we
flag
the
milkweed.
H
So
people
know
the
the
cutters
know
where
milkweed
is
so.
We
avoid
cutting
milkweed
for,
of
course,
the
butterflies,
and
we
also
do
bird
surveys
because
we
are
in
the
bird
nesting
season,
and
so
we
have
to
schedule
our
bird
people
in
line
with
the
upcoming
cutting.
So
we're
feeling
pretty
good
about
it.
It
is
a
light
season.
We
do
have
a
new
contractor,
that's
doing
it,
so
it's
good
that
they
have
a
light
season
and
we're
reminding
them
every
day.
That
next
year
will
hopefully
be
a
lot
more
work.
H
Okay,
next
slide,
we
did
the
chest
suppressant
application
at
wildwood
park
and
that
ariel,
interestingly
enough
was
taken
a
previous
year
during
the
application.
So
you
get
an
idea
of
what
it
looks
like
after
the
application.
Then
it
sits
for
24
hours.
H
We
also
did
the
road
from
the
parking
lot
to
the
mesa
gate
this
year
and
we're
really
happy
with
the
product,
and
it's
worked
pretty
well
in
the
past.
So
next
slide.
H
So
the
fire
this
past
week
was
a
little
exciting.
It
was
good
for
us.
The
wind
was
blowing
pretty
well,
but
the
reason
it
was
good
for
us.
It
was
a
good
chance
to
practice
some
work
on
communication,
getting
information
up
our
chain
of
command
and
from
the
rangers
what
was
going
on.
I
was
able
to
communicate
with
brian
and
with
jim,
about
the
status
pretty
quickly.
H
The
fire
was
a
couple
hours,
so
things
moved
rather
quickly,
but
the
rangers
were
had
eyes
on
it
pretty
quickly
and
they
were
able
to
get
some
nice
pictures.
Their
photography
has
actually
improved
dramatically
next.
H
Yeah,
I
don't
know
how
things
things
get
into
open
space,
but
ironing
boards
and
stuff
we
cleaned
up
a
couple
big
handfuls
of
stuff
and
put
it
in
the
truck.
So
why
do
you
look
so
stoic
there
brian?
I
don't.
I
don't
know.
H
Well,
that
picture
is
going
to
be
one
of
my
favorites
forever
anyway,
so
we've
been
working
on
the
los
robles
reroute
and
just
to
let
everybody
know
it
opened
up
today.
So
we're
super
excited,
but
I
am
gonna
go
back
from
where
we
left
off
last
time
in
february
was
the
brush
cutting,
it
was
pretty
cool,
you
see
the
rangers
and
jackets
there
and,
and
they
got
all
cut
the
trail,
the
brushing
cut.
So
that's
what
the
full
cut
would
look
like.
It's
approximately
10
feet
wide
good
next.
H
And
that's
a
reverse
of
that
previous
photo.
So
if
that's,
then
we
start
doing
the
dirt
work
and
the
rangers
cut
the
end
slope.
This
was
a
full
bench
cut,
meaning
that
we
go
all
the
way
into
the
hillside
about
six
feet.
So
we've
got
a
very
solid
bed
for
the
trail
to
sit
on
the
rangers
worked
with
the
crew.
The
crew
is
a
contract
group
that
we
bring
out
of
ojai
and
they
loved
this
trail.
H
It
was
very
satisfying
to
build
a
complete
trail,
and
this
is
before
we
did
the
clearance,
the
vertical
clearance
for
horses.
The
rangers
come
through
with
a
pole
saws
and
make
it
safe
for
horses
to
be
on.
D
Reminds
me
the
photos
they
would
take
of
the
old
loggers,
cutting
down
big
trees
right.
H
Okay,
this,
this
next
sequence
is
a
little
bit
interesting
because
they
were
all
taken
from
virtually
the
same
spot,
and
this
is,
you
can
see
the
large
root
ball
being
removed.
This
is
the
trail
bed
being
built
in
that
same
location,.
H
And
a
reverse
of
that,
that's
some
mighty
fine
tread
work
that
was
done
yeah.
You
see
the
fence
there
on
the
right
side,
that's
actually
at
the
road
as
it
crosses
the
the
rossignols
road.
So
everything
seems
to
be
very,
very
safe
there
for
everybody.
F
F
No,
no,
I
just
I
tried
to
visualize
it
where
it
was
okay,
oh
okay,.
H
So
these
two
individuals,
you
notice,
they're,
holding
up
two
fingers
because
they
were
actually
the
second
two
people
to
ride
it.
Somebody
else
came
up
while
the
rangers
were
unplugging
the
ends
of
the
trail
to
connect
it
do
the
final
connection
to
the
existing
trail
and
in
the
two
hours
that
the
rangers
were
there
about
a
dozen
people
came
through,
so
people
have
been
anticipating
this.
We
did
some
publicity
ahead
of
time
and
people
were
very
excited
to
try
out
this
new
section.
The
reviews
so
far
are
very,
very
good.
H
It's
steep
challenging
and
the
view
is
spectacular.
I
I
was
really
impressed
with
the
view.
H
And
there
they
all
are
rangers
working
trail.
It's
I.
I
had
a
talk
with
them
about
how
rare
it
is
to
do
a
real
trail.
I
only
got
to
do
two
or
three
when
I
was
a
ranger,
and
this
is
actually
the
first
one
we've
done
in
years,
so
it
felt
really
good
go
ahead
to
the
next
one.
F
H
The
way
route,
I'm
sorry,
go
ahead.
This
is
the
reroute
from
the
rasnow
properties.
So
this
is
this.
Is
it
that
moves
out
away
from
there?
One.
H
Yeah
and
this
picture
it's
kind
of
get
to
say,
get
into
the
ranger's
head
a
little
bit
and
after
a
tiring
day,
this
is
obviously
a
near
the
end
of
the
day.
The
sun,
the
shadows
are
long
and
they're,
walking,
tired
and
they've
been
building
trail
all
day,
but
on
the
last
day,
you're,
actually
one
of
the
first
ones
to
walk
the
trail.
So
it's
it's
really
a
sense
of
accomplishment,
I'm
really
proud
of
the
rangers
and
how
well
they
did
this
year
on
this
trail.

We're
shooting
for
october,
we
are
in
the
planning
stages
for
october.
We
think
it'll
be
the
third
saturday,
like
we
historically
have
done
we're
probably
going
to
do
the
trail
behind
your
head
off
to
your
left
on
the
santa
rosa
trail
up
that
hill
and
we'll
be
doing
yep
and
we'll
be
doing
the
wonderful
lunch
down
in
the
inner
parking
lot.

I
wanted
to
also
thank
the
deputy
executive
officer
of
the
santa
monica
mountains,
conservancy
and
all
of
her
tons
of
work
to
get
all
those
grants
out
to
all
the
agencies
and
specifically
thank
senator
stern
and
assemblymember
bloom,
because
I
know
that
their
role
in
getting
those
fire
resiliency
grants
out
was
significant
and,
and
just
so
you
know
what
crpd
is
going
to
be
doing
it.
J
It
received
a
grant
and
we'll
have
a
water,
basically,
a
water
tender,
those
big
water
trucks
that
you'll
see
at
construction
sites,
or
something
like
that.
We
will
we'll
have
one
of
those
now
available
for
crpd
and
it'll
be
put
into
service
in
the
next
few
months
to
support
some
of
our.

I
just
wanted
to
I
I
don't
know
if
any
of
them
were
watching,
but
I
just
I
really
appreciate
the
community
members
who
were
volunteering
for
kostack.
It's
it's
really
nice
to
see.
People
who've
been
involved
for
a
long
time
getting
re-involved
and
seeing
some
new
new
names
and
new
faces
involved
in
costac.
So
that's
great,
and
I
did
also
want
to
thank
matt.
I
it
just
happened
this
morning.
G

To
about
getting
rid
of
them
before,
I
even
had
a
chance
to
contact
anybody,
matt
and
his
crew
got
rid
of
the
treats.
So
thank
you.
Matt.
