PUBLIC COMMENTS
GLEN WRIGHT spoke in opposition to the agenda item relative to the establishment of a day
laborer center for reasons including that he believes it will have a detrimental effect on the
legitimate contractors who hire laborers and must pay the various costs associated with hiring
employees. He stated that rather than building a day laborer center the city should take steps
to see that laws are enforced.
DORIS SITYKEN spoke in opposition to the proposed day laborer center stating there is a state
employment office where the laborers can find work. She stated that the article in the
newspaper regarding checking employee residence status would not be workable. She stated
that this is not showing children how to obey the law.

he believed are detrimental effects of illegal residents including stolen shopping carts.
BARBARA BALAZS stated her opposition to the item on the Council agenda relative to
establishing a day laborer center for persons whom she believes to be illegal workers.

on this matter which she had previously written to the City Council. She stated that she
believes illegal workers should be immediately deported. She stated her opposition to the city's
intention to establish the day laborer center. Ms. Coe stated that if the California Coalition for
Immigration Reform determines that if just one illegal alien is hired the city will be sued. She
4
08/03/98 - Council/Agency Minutes - Page 5
spoke about the reasons why she believes Lt. Ochoa is advocating multiple violations of federal
law. She requested that the item be removed from the Consent Calendar Agenda for separate
discussion.
Councilmember Harman stated that he takes exception to the comments made by the last
speaker regarding Lt. Ochoa.
RON PRINCE stated his opposition to the establishment of a day laborer site for reasons
including that he believes it would bring more illegal aliens to the city. He informed Council that

DAVE BREES, Oakview Property Owners' Association, spoke in favor of the establishment of
the day laborer job center and the proposed employment solicitation ordinance that appear on
this meeting's agenda.
KATHERINE JOHNSON requested that Council approve the employment solicitation ordinance
for reasons including that she believes a significant traffic hazard is caused by the present
situation of the congregation of day laborers; also that persons will not rent in areas where day
laborers appear on the street. She stated that the proposed ordinance presents a solution that
has proved workable in other Orange County cities.
VIRGINIA SIMS spoke on behalf of salary increases for the firefighters. She spoke regarding
her understanding of the PERS issue which is affecting the firefighters. She stated that she
believes the Council is stealing from the firefighters, and the Council should stick to its word.

these laws should be enforced rather than establishing a day laborer job center.

requested that binding arbitration be entered into. Mr. Knott stated that all that is asked by the
firefighters is fairness.
BRUCE WAREH, Board President of Huntington Bayshore Community Association located at
Lake Street and Orange Avenue, informed Council of his opposition to a leaf blower ban in the
city. He stated it is unnecessary, bad public policy, and an injustice to ban the lower noise leaf
blowers along with the loud ones. Mr. Wareh stated that people will look elsewhere such as to
unlicensed sources for the removal of leaves.
ANNA CAPOCCIAMA stated that the job center is not for illegal workers. She spoke regarding
the problem of laborers sitting on her fence due to possible breakage of the fence. She stated
A
Page 6 - Council/Agency Minutes — 08/03/98
when asking them not to sit on the fence she had met a man waiting for a day laborer job
whose father had years ago worked with her father on the bean thrasher. She stated this man

have the men work, and do not pay them. Ms. Capocciama stated her support for the proposed
