CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH
CITY COUNCIL MEETING — COUNCIL MEMBER ITEMS REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MIKE POSEY, CITY COUNCIL MEMBER
DATE: JULY 6, 2021
SUBJECT: DIRECT STAFF TO PREPARE THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS TO TERMINATE
HUNTINGTON BEACH'S EXISTING COVID-19 LOCAL EMERGENCY DECLARATION
On March 16, 2020, the City Council authorized the declaration of a local emergency in light of
the COVID-19 crisis. That decision built on the March 4, 2020, determination of Governor Gavin
Newsom to declare a State of Emergency as part of California's response to the pandemic.
At the time, the determination was necessary in order to streamline decision making processes,
protect the health and safety of the community, and position Huntington Beach to access Federal
and State funding as part of our local response to the COVID-19 emergency.
After more than a year of pandemic induced restrictions, on June 15, Governor Newsom ended
its COVID-19 Blueprint for a Safer Economy, which in effect fully reopened the California
economy. Today, all business sectors, save for large-scale special events, have been allowed to
return to normal business operations.
Given our current situation, I am requesting that the City Council vote to direct the City Manager
to prepare the documents necessary to terminate Huntington Beach's current COVID-19 local
emergency declaration.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
I recommend that the City Council vote to direct the City Manager to prepare for consideration
the documents necessary to terminate Huntington Beach's current COVID-19 local emergency
declaration.

Can you please help me to understand why you have not ended the state of emergency when you are hosting a giant
Fourth of July gathering this weekend? We continue to see your absolute corrupt behavior and how you have absolutely
no regard for your constituents. I expect a detailed response as to why this continues. You work for us.This looks like a
giant money laundering scheme.
Meanwhile Huntington Beach has turned into a giant homeless drug addicted encampment....what are your plans to do
anything about that?
Please also include the agenda for your next board meeting.

Dear Huntington Beach City Council,
First of all, thank you for taking the time to read my letter. I'm writing regarding the decision you will be making about
the emergency order currently in place.
Our case rate, hospital rate, etc are all WAY down, in fact better than they've ever been! We citizens have done our part
and have stayed safe. The 15 days to slow the spread that has turned into 15+ months needs to end. Show us proof of
"extreme peril" as defined in city and state emergency codes, and we will support that, but at this point it seems
prudent that we go about our business in a normal fashion.
Thank you for leading this city and supporting the will of the people who live here and enjoy this beautiful place.
Sincerely,
Rebecca Sorensen

Dear Board,
It was such a great weekend here in HB. We had a great time biking down to the pier festivities, eating at our local
restaurants, watching the parade down our street, and watching fireworks last night. It is time to end the State of
Emergency. Covid is here to stay, like the Flu, and we need to be taking personal responsibility for our own health at this
point. Those that want to mask, social distance, and stay home can. Those that got the vaccine should be protected and
those that don't want it know the risks. We have minimal case numbers and hospitalizations and those don't warrant
the continued emergency order. Please do the right thing and send a message to our state government. Thank you!

Subject: Lift State of Emergency
Dear HB City Council Members, Aqsn4e Mm No.
Please lift the state of emergency order over HB!
According to the California Emergency Services Act (ESA) Section
8558-b: a state of emergency can only be called if the threat
overwhelms the current resources of the state.
Furthermore, the state of emergency has to be terminated at the
earliest possible date. Section 8558 (b) "State of emergency" means
the duly proclaimed existence of conditions of disaster or of extreme
peril to the safety of persons and property within the state caused by
such conditions as air pollution, fire, flood, storm, epidemic, riot,
drought, sudden and severe energy shortage, plant or animal
infestation or disease, the Governor's warning of an California
Emergency Services Act 4 California Governor's Office of Emergency
Services earthquake or volcanic prediction, or an earthquake, or other
conditions, other than conditions resulting from a labor controversy or
conditions causing a "state of war emergency, " which, by reason of
their magnitude, are or are likely to be beyond the control of the
services, personnel, equipment, and facilities of any single county,
city and county, or city and require the combined forces of a mutual
aid region or regions to combat.
Huntington Beach clearly does not meet this criteria. Therefore the state of
emergency is invalid and unlawful.
Therefore, the state of emergency should have been terminated many
months ago according to California law, which states, "at the earliest
possible date that conditions warrant."
Please join the City of Newport Beach and remove this unnecessary order.
Thank you.

HB City Council,
It is time to lift the State of Emergency declared by Huntington Beach. Enough is enough. People need to get back to
work, get off public assistance, and get on with their lives. This past year has been a disaster for our economy and
frankly, it's been over-the-top fear and unfounded hysteria. It is time to get things moving forward again. A big gesture
towards this end would be lifting the State of Emergency. This would make even more sense due to the fact that anyone
with a functioning brain can clearly see there is no State of Emergency. Make this happen.

Subject:State of CA Emergency Order
Dear Council Members:
It has come to my attention that there is a local emergency declaration in place because of the CA state of
emergency signed by Governor Newsom due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
I'm concerned that this declaration is still in place when the state has officially opened up and there are no
upticks in cases and the Delta variant, though contagious, is no worse than the flu. Many are vaccinated and the
idea of continuing a state of emergency in our city doesn't make sense.
When will this emergency declaration be terminated? Please consider doing this immediately as it is necessary
for all residents to return to normal, knowing our city follows common sense guidelines.
No more masks, no more lockdowns, and an end to the emergency declaration would be most appreciated.
Many thanks for your consideration.
Most sincerely,
Joan Garnett

Dear council members..
I have been a resident of Huntington Beach for 35 years. I am writing to request you appoint Oscar
Rodriguez to the vacant seat on our city council. I have had the privilege of working with him on a few
occasions and have been impressed not only with his organizational skills and his awareness and
creativity in finding solutions to problems. but also with his genuine dedication to making our society
better for everyone He understands that quality of life is interdependent: we all do better when each
of us does better
Oscar is loved and respected in his community of Oakview He also has developed mutually
beneficial relationships among other communities and groups In Orange County and California. He is
well qualified to represent the needs of all residents of Huntington Beach. This Is particularly
important during our times, when local communities need a united and inclusive vision for a safe and
healthy future.
In addition, during the 2020 election. Oscar gathered a large portion of the community's votes, a good
indication that he has community support.
Respectfully,

To whom it may concern,
It's time for the emergency order to be lifted in HB. Local businesses have been impacted terribly and with cases being
counted instead of deaths it's time to move forward and get things back to normal.

Subject: Agenda Item 18 Support
Dear Mayor Carr and City Council Members
I am pleased to see Agenda Item 18, proposed by Councilmember Moser proposing that Staff
be directed to Develop a City Sustainability Plan. The State has mandated that cities have
detailed Climate Action Plans and I hope that this measure is a step in that direction. Climate
Change will have a significant impact on Huntington Beach and the city must have the tools to
mitigate its impacts.
I hope that all members will support this proposal and the further development of a Climate
Action Plan.

Subject: Lift the state of emergency
Please join our neighbors in NP and stand up for our citizens by ending the state of emergency. I VERY much
appreciate that this will be discussed tonight. With the weekend events as they were a success and so crowded I
think we can all see it's time, and with no science to back the emergency it is the only way forward. HB has
been a pioneer city of freedom this year, please keep that going and end this state of emergency.
Thank you,
Emily Preus

Subject: Remove State of Emergency in the city of HB TONIGHT!
Dear Sirs,
In tonight's agenda, it is imperative that you lift the state of emergency,just don't consider it. Our community needs to
move on from the disastrous mental effects Covid has had a role on our HB citizens from our elderly to our toddlers this
past 16 months. We have endured downtown riots, loss of businesses, school closures that have made mental and
lasting negative effects on our children (K-college) and IT IS TIME to no longer follow the agenda of our horrendous
Governor.
PLEASE not only consider but remove the state of emergency. We cannot continue to hold down special events with
hundreds of thousands of people and expect to continue to receive federal assistance. Covid is gone, stop the fear and
let's get back to normal.
Thank you for your time in this matter.
Regards,
Joelle Palombo
HB Homeowner

Subject: Ending the emergency order
To our elected city officials:
Regarding the agenda of the emergency order. I understand why the orders were put into place around March to
trigger the availability of a variety of federal, state and local resources. But according to the California
Emergency Services Act to instate such local provisions means "the duly proclaimed existence of conditions of
disaster or of extreme peril to the safety of persons and property within the territorial limits of a county. city and
county, or city, caused by such conditions as air pollution, fire, flood, storm. epidemic. riot. drought, sudden and
severe energy shortage, plant or animal infestation or disease, the Goyemor's warning of an earthquake or
volcanic prediction, or an earthquake, or other conditions."
With orange county's numbers below 100 for Covid since April this year there is no longer an iminent threat.
With City Council members posting photos to city social media during the 4th of july festivities, you all are
showcasing you no longer think there is either. Please have your vote reflect that truth today as well. Thank you
for your
time.

Subject: State of Emergency
To whom it mae concern.
I request that the `'state of emergence" that Huntington Beach has been placed on should be lifted immediately.
We are not in any state of emergency and for that matter I also believe that the mask mandates on children
should be removed today! These twannical motions the city has set in place are causing more harm than good.
The mental mind game this is playing on my children has gone on too long! Unmask our children - end this so
called emergency and let's all get back to work!

Dear city council,
As a long time Huntington Beach resident and participant in many HB programs, such as Jr. lifeguards, I beg you to
please lift the city state of emergency. Our city needs to return to business as usual which will help us all get back on our
feet.
Thank you for your consideration!
