Monrovia CERT, BERT set to start

2023 emergency prep courses

BY JOE TAGLIERI

As the new year settles in, Monrovia public safety professionals and civilian residents interested in learning potentially life-saving skills during a disaster or medical emergency will begin a new round of 2023 training courses.

The Community Emergency Resiliency Team and the Business Emergency Resiliency Training program provide community members and businesses with crucial, possibly know-how for when disaster and danger strike.

Monrovia CERT courses focus on readiness and knowledge to put in play when public safety is put in harm’s way, while BERT

tailors emergency preparedness to specific businesses with the goal of enabling local companies to continue operations after a disaster hits, fire department officials told Monrovia Weekly.

Over three consecutive Saturdays — with the next round of training starting Jan. 28 — CERT participants learn emergency preparedness techniques, fire suppression and safety, disaster medical operations, light search and rescue, disaster psychology, team organization skills and how to conduct a disaster drill.

BERT instruction is provided in six, two-hour sessions this year between this Wednesday, Jan. 18,

and Oct. 26. Participants learn emergency response techniques, emergency preparedness, fire safety and utility awareness, emergency operations and business continuity plans, disaster exercise planning and safety awareness as it pertains to crime and terrorism.

Longtime CERT and BERT participants encouraged fellow locals to get involved in the training programs and shared their thoughts on and experiences with the program.

“I like to give back to my community,” said Mark Harvis, a Monrovia resident, retired Los Angeles

County public defender and currently a FEMA-certified CERT instructor.

“The idea that a person could be trained to assist professional responders in case of an emergency was appealing,” Harvis said on why he got involved with Monrovia CERT. “It really was a way that I could do something for my city and for others. And, in the process, I would obtain valuable and insightful training.”

Monrovia CERT Deputy Coordinator Barbara RigbyElson — a retired financial industry professional turned CERT course instructor who

heads the program’s smoke detector installation effort — elaborated on the valuable skills Harvis mentioned.

“The CERT Basic Course taught me the proper way to use a fire extinguisher, provide basic first aid, utilize lifts and carries for safely moving the injured and search and rescue techniques,” Rigby-Elson recalled. “As a CERT trainer, I’ve taught the Disaster Psychology course which focuses on recognizing the psychological and physical symptoms of trauma in yourself, family members, CERT and victims of a disaster.”

Harvis noted the “handson” life-saving skills he has learned after over a decade with Monrovia CERT.

“Preparing for emergencies is something that most of us just don’t do,” he said. “CERT brought that home — and gave tools and knowledge to become prepared. From putting together a pretty decent first aid backpack kit to learning how to perform light search and rescue, the program offered knowledge and hands-on practice that would not otherwise readily

Senior Riverside Supervisor Jeffries elected 2023 board chair

a fan of organizing “public presentations,” eliciting laughs in the chamber.

“I believe in the efficiency of staff,” he said. “I hope as chair to continue with presentations, but I want to keep them efficient and cap them at two per meeting. We all need to be in sync on who’s going to receive presentations and make sure they’re done professionally and efficiently.”

He complained that prior meetings had been plagued with excess presentations that chewed up time, causing unnecessary delays in delving into agenda items.

46% and now represents the Fifth District.

Jeffries declined the chairmanship during his first term, when he was still the most junior member of the board. However, he accepted the position and was unanimously appointed during the latter half of his second term.

Each supervisor is given an opportunity to rotate into the chair, which is a one-year term. The line of succession is based only on whichever district supervisor is slated for a turn.

was elected to his third supervisorial term in 2020.

He is the only supervisor who has consistently declined salary increases, and he has been a steadfast critic of excess spending and an advocate for pension reform to preserve the county’s fiscal health and prevent successive structural budget deficits.

The most senior member of the Riverside County Board of Supervisors was appointed Tuesday to the position of chairman of the board — the last time he will serve in that capacity as he closes in on retirement.

Supervisor Kevin Jeffries, who represents the First District, was next in the rotation to take the helm, and it’s the second time in the 10 years he’s been on the board that he’ll serve in the top slot.

The appointment was

Jeffries quipped that he didn’t mind whether someone else took the position because he’s not

Jeffries’ appointment was in sharp contrast to the appointment of former Supervisor Jeff Hewitt a year ago, which was the only occasion in the current century that a Board of Supervisors chairmanship was confirmed by a threadbare majority. Hewitt garnered support from Jeffries and Supervisor Karen Spiegel, then voted for himself, after abstentions by Supervisors Manuel Perez and Washington.

The pair publicly supported fellow Democrat and the former mayor of Moreno Valley, Yxstian Gonzalez, in his bid to unseat Hewitt, a Libertarian, in the Nov. 8 general election. Gonzalez won by a margin of 54% to

The chair oversees establishing board schedules, guiding hearings, attending functions on behalf of the entire board, signing proclamations and other ceremonial duties that don’t require a quorum.

Jeffries, 61, announced in October 2021 that he intended to retire at the end of his present term, which expires in December 2024. The Lakeland Village resident said he wanted to spend more time with family, and most of his children and grandchildren had left California.

Jeffries, a property investor and former volunteer firefighter, first ran for the board in 2012 after being termed out of the state Assembly, where he served as a Republican. He

The chairman has additionally decried the overgrowth of warehouses countywide and has voted in opposition to several projects due to their breadth and encroachments on residential spaces.

He led the charge against illegal cannabis grows, particularly throughout his district, but later spearheaded efforts to implement a regulatory scheme to provide a permitting process for enabling marijuana vendors to do business in the county after recreational use of the product was approved by voters in 2018.

Last year, he called for a suspension of permitting proposals brought before the board for review because, he said, too many licenses had been granted, but the applicants had been inert, failing to move ahead with establishing their outlets, or failing to fulfill the terms of their conditional use permits.

San Bernardino seeks volunteers for annual homeless count

BY STAFF

San Bernardino city and county are asking members of the community to volunteer for its annual homeless Pointin-Time Count, which takes place Jan. 26 From 5:30-10 a.m.

Participants will meet at the San Manuel Stadium parking lot located at 280 South “E” Street, according to the city of San Bernardino.

“The Point-in-Time Count has a direct impact on our city’s funding to address homelessness and volunteer turnout is critical to the count’s success,” San Bernardino Mayor Helen Tran said in a statement. “I will be there on January 26th and hope to see everyone there to help San Bernardino address homelessness.”

The homeless count is a federally mandated effort

that aims to identify the number of homeless individuals throughout the nation. Data generated by the count is used in determining financial allotments for programs and services in local communities. PITC surveys are set to happen throughout San Bernardino County.

“The Mayor and City Council recently adopted a comprehensive homeless action plan to serve our San Bernardino’s most vulnerable residents,” Cassandra Searcy, deputy director of housing and homelessness, said in a statement. “A complete count is essential to strategically implement the plan and volunteers are critical to the Count’s success.”

PITC volunteers must be at least 18 years old and can be anyone who would like to help address homeless-

ness, such as social service providers, educational institutions, faith-based organizations, local businesses, civic/nonprofit organizations, neighborhood associations, current and formerly homeless individuals and community members.

To register to be a volunteer for the San Bernardino homeless count and for more information, visit: sbchp. sbcounty.gov/communityprojects/point-in-timecount/

An Android phone, iPhone or iPad are required to conduct the count, and officials are asking volunteers to participate in an online training session to learn about safety guidelines and receive instruction on how to use the PITC survey mobile app.

Potential volunteers may

A“celebration of life” for famed Southland mountain lion P-22 will be held at the Greek Theatre next month, honoring the cat who made Griffith Park his home and became the face of the endangered Southern California lion population.

The free event is scheduled for noon on Feb. 4, according to the theater’s website. The two-hour event is expected to include musical performances, dancing and food, according to the theater. Tickets will be required.

expected to be released in coming days through the theater and at www.savelacougers.org.

The lion, one of many Southland-area cats being tracked by National Park Service researchers, gained fame locally for his persistence and durability, successfully managing to cross both the San Diego (405) and Hollywood (101) freeways to reach his recent roaming grounds in the Griffith Park area.

home in Griffith Park, separated from his birth area by two of the busiest freeways in the world.

Defying expectations, he persisted for more than 10 years in the smallest home range that has ever been recorded for an adult male mountain lion.

He was initially captured and outfitted with a tracking collar in 2012. At the time of his last capture, he weighed 123 pounds.

residents and wildlife lovers who have long followed the cat’s exploits.

A memorial sunset hike was held in his memory in Griffith Park the day after his death.

The cat’s remains have since been taken to the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, but exactly what will be done with them remains unknown.

The lion was euthanized Dec. 17 after being examined by wildlife officials who captured the cat following recent signs of distress, including a series of attacks on pet dogs in the area.

“We will all be grappling with the loss for some time, trying to make sense of a Los Angeles without this magnificent wild creature,” according to the theater’s website. “Let’s come together as a community to celebrate his remarkable life. Joining us will be special guests speaking about their connections to P-22 -- and how he also connected us all.”

Known as the “Hollywood Cat,” P-22 became the face of the NPS’s program to track local lions in the Santa Monica Mountains. His exploits were documented in various media accounts, including his daring freeway crossings, hiding out under a Los Feliz home in a standoff that drew widespread attention and even being named a suspect in the killing of a koala at the Los Angeles Zoo.

He was believed to be about 11 or 12 years old, making him the oldest cat in the NPS’ study of Southland lions. He is believed to have been born in the Santa Monica Mountains, somehow finding his way to his tiny, nine-square- mile

After he was captured earlier this month, wildlife experts said P-22 had facial injuries consistent with being struck by a vehicle.

Experts ultimately made the decision to humanely euthanize the animal at San Diego Zoo Safari Park, where he was being treated, to spare him further suffering.

“P-22’s advanced age, combined with chronic, debilitating, life- shortening conditions and the clear need for extensive longterm veterinary intervention left P-22 with no hope for a positive outcome,” according to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.

His death has led to an outpouring of emotion from

Local tribal leaders -who consider cougars to be sacred -- have objected to the suggestion that the lion be placed on display at the museum, arguing instead that he be buried in Griffith Park.

Museum officials said that they took part in a “blessing ceremony” to welcome P-22’s remains to the facility. Attending that ceremony were representatives from the GabrielinoShoshone, Akimel O’otham, Luiseño, Gabrielino-Tongva, Tataviam and Chumash tribes.

“Decisions regarding next steps will continue to be made together with local tribes, with more information provided as it becomes available,” museum officials said in a statement.

Former Rep. Harley Rouda announces another run for Congress

BY CITY NEWS SERVICE

Aday after Rep. Katie Porter, D-Irvine, announced her bid for the U.S. Senate, former Rep. Harley Rouda on Wednesday announced he would seek another term in Congress in Porter’s district.

Rouda, a Democrat who was elected in 2018 and served one term, was unseated by Rep. Michelle Steel, R-Huntington Beach. Rouda was considering another run for Congress last year, but when Porter jumped into the 47th Congressional District he got out of the way.

Hours after Porter’s announcement Tuesday, her Republican opponent last year, businessman Scott Baugh, announced he would vie for the seat again.

“Today, California families are grappling with deadly storms and floods, a disaster exacerbated by our climate crisis,” Rouda said in his announcement. “In Congress, I will be laserfocused on resolving this crisis — and work with anyone to get it done.”

Rouda added it was a “battleground district. We need battle-tested leaders who know how to fight — and win.”

Rouda also said the county “deserves leaders that put bipartisanship ahead of brinksmanship, and focused on delivering results for the working families of our state. I was that leader in Congress, and I’m proud to run to do it again.”

The district includes Costa Mesa, Huntington Beach, Irvine, Laguna Beach, Newport Beach and Seal Beach.

Porter defeated Baugh 51.7% to 48.3%.

Orange County Republican Chairman Fred Whitaker

told City News Service he believes Baugh will not face any opponents from his own party.

“It’s wise to get behind one candidate early like we did with (Reps.) Young Kim and Michelle Steel in 2020,” Whitaker said. “It’s a very challenging district, but deeply winnable because it’s almost even in voter registration.”

Whitaker said he suspects multiple Democrats will enter the race, which could split the vote in the primary.

“Democrats are going to have three or four candidates,” Whitaker said. “I’m actually hopeful the Demo-

crats are the ones who are splitting the vote.”

Whitaker speculated that state Sen. Dave Min, D-Irvine, will run along with Orange County Supervisor Katrina Foley.

“I’ve just been sworn in to the Board of Supervisors and I love that job and I’m going to get to work on behalf of District 5 in the county of Orange,” Foley told City News Service. “I appreciate that I’m a formidable opponent for the district and just coming off a successful campaign, but I pledged to the voters to be their supervisor and work on their behalf.”

Monrovia has 50 certified CERT members, who the fire department mobilizes during disasters and who also participate in public events and provide assistance to the community such as smoke alarm installation, said Monrovia CERT Coordinator Suzanne Dobson. Since 2007 over 200 people have

received disaster preparedness training, and BERT has 22 businesses enrolled in the program.

Dobson summed up the differences between BERT and CERT: “BERT is more a planning kind of class, CERT is hands-on skills. BERT is about being prepared, having a plan in place, surviving the disaster as a business.”

San Voong, an executive with Monrovia-based telecom company Giggle Fiber, has along with co-workers taken about half of the BERT courses since the middle of last year.

“As we provide critical

Orange County Supervisor Don Wagner was chosen Tuesday as chairman of the board in a move that snubbed Supervisor Katrina Foley.

In a 3-2 vote, the board promoted Wagner from vice chairman to chairman and passed over Foley, who was next in line for vice chair, in favor of Supervisor Andrew Do, who was chairman in 2021.

Foley said she was “slightly disappointed that three of my colleagues disregarded precedent and passed

services with internet and telephone, we believe we have a social and professional responsibility to ensure our services remain operational during an unforeseen event,” said Voong, who is also a member of Temple City CERT with plans this year to join the Monrovia team.

“With cohesive and synchronized training through Monrovia’s BERT courses, we can strive toward a preventive, if not a fast reactive position should the need arise in an emergency,” Voong continued. “This contributes to the safety

of our team members, our customers and as responsible corporate citizens to the city of Monrovia.”

Voong also pointed to the relevant overlap between CERT and BERT training, as well as the communityunifying aspects of learning life-saving skills.

“Both training courses allow better insight into how the city, county and state handle crises — we will no longer sit and wonder what’s next,” he said.

“Through CERT and BERT, you will gain the skills, knowledge and tools to actively make a choice

me on the rotation for vice chair,” but, she added, she was “honored to serve my district and will continue to use my voice to advocate for the issues residents care about.”

Newly elected Vicente Sarmiento, who was sworn in Tuesday, nominated Wagner as chairman and Foley as vice chair.

“I’ve had the benefit of serving with all four” other supervisors as a member of the Orange County Transportation Authority, Sarmiento said. “They are all compe-

tent to chair a meeting and deserve to be in leadership.”

But Sarmiento said he favored following the normal rotation.

“Nothing against anybody, but it’s the logic I used as mayor (of Santa Ana) and other agencies I’ve served on,” he said.

Do issued a statement saying he was “confident that this board will continue to work together collaboratively under our new Chairman Don Wagner — as we work to make Orange County a great place to live.”

to engage in an unforeseen event. The CERT and BERT skillset are widely applicable regardless of locale, generation, culture and workplace,” Voong said.

Rigby-Elson succinctly summed up local disaster preparation: “By attending CERT and BERT you become aware of being prepared and learning to be self-sufficient.”

Harvis added, “Even if all a person does is take the class without joining our team, the student has learned valuable information that will help keep the person safe and able to better assist others.”

LA council again delays vote on Scattergood ‘green hydrogen’ plan

BY CITY NEWS SERVICE

The Los Angeles City Council again delayed a final vote last Wednesday on a muchdebated plan to shift the Scattergood Generating Station, a power plant in Playa del Rey, to be powered by green hydrogen instead of natural gas.

The item passed 8-3 on its first reading in December, not garnering enough votes to skip a second vote for final approval. The second consideration was initially scheduled prior to the winter recess, but the item was delayed with new council members joining in between the two readings. It was delayed again on Wednesday until Feb. 8.

The council had voted to authorize a competitive bid proposal process for the estimated $800 million plan, over the objections of some environmental groups concerned about the impact of green hydrogen on the climate and lack of transparency from officials.

The dynamics of the vote could change given that there is a new council, with five new members joining. Two of the members who

voted in favor and two who voted against it the first time are no longer on the council.

One of the new council members, Eunisses Hernandez, called for a separate vote on the Scattergood item during Wednesday’s meeting, an indication that she would not be in favor.

Two other new members, Katy Young Yaroslavsky and Traci Park, filed a motion Wednesday seeking a report from the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power to provide more context to the use of green hydrogen at the plant. The requests included potential alternatives to the project and the public health risks of using green hydrogen.

Jasmin Vargas, senior policy adviser at Food & Water Watch, told City News Service after the first delay that she was glad the new council members would have a chance to learn more about the issue before voting.

In December, Council President Paul Krekorian called the plan necessary for Los Angeles to meet its goal of achieving 100% clean

energy by 2035.

Without a significant generating resource at Scattergood, the city would see energy reliability issues, according to Krekorian, who added that the council was voting on just the procurement process.

“This is barely the first step on the beginning of a potential journey toward green hydrogen at Scattergood,” Krekorian said, adding that the council will be engaged in answering questions ahead of full approval.

According to a resolution approved by the Board of Water and Power Commissioners in August, the shift to green hydrogen would help the department reach its goal of transitioning to 100% renewable energy by 2035.

But environmental groups have pushed back. According to Food & Water Watch, hydrogen still produces emissions that can threaten the climate, would require more than 122 million gallons of water to power the plant and cost more than solar, wind or battery storage.

Palm Springs Cruisin’ Association’s charity car show to return in February

BY CITY NEWS SERVICE

The Palm Springs Cruisin’ Association’s annual Dr. George Charity Car Show benefiting the Desert Cancer Foundation will return — after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic — next month, officials said Wednesday.

Foundation officials said the show will feature cars from Hollywood films and about 1,100 exotic and sports cars from participants who will travel from

neighboring states. Awards and trophies will be given out throughout the day.

Young aspiring drivers can also don racing attire and participate in a pedal car race. The pedal cars will be auctioned after the race and funds will go toward the DCF and the local YMCA.

Spectators can pay a $10 entry fee at the door to participate in silent auctions and raffles, listen to live music, eat or drink from a selection of trucks, and view the more than 1,000 cars in the venue, according to foundation officials. No preregistration is required.
