Diamond Bar Town Center Specific Plan Frequently Asked Questions on page 4

IVHS Looking for Volunteers

Mandatory Water Restrictions in Place

Diamond Bar Town Center Specific Plan Frequently Asked Questions The Diamond Bar Town Center Specific Plan will begin to shape the possibilities for turning into reality the community’s vision for establishing a downtown for Diamond Bar. Q. Where is the project located? A. The Diamond Bar Town Center Mixed-use Focus Area is a 45-acre commercial district located along both sides of Diamond Bar Boulevard – generally bound on the south by Golden Springs Drive, on the north by the SR-60 Freeway, and intersected by Gentle Springs Lane and Palomino Drive. Q. How was this project conceived? What is the City’s vision? A. The Town Center vision was conceived during the General Plan Update process adopted by the City Council in December 2019. During that process, residents expressed a desire to create a downtown, or “Town Center,” in Diamond Bar: a walkable place with entertainment, retail, restaurants, community gathering spaces and urban housing opportunities. While Diamond Bar has numerous centers of activity, including the Diamond Bar Center, the City Hall and Library complex, high schools, and various suburban-style commercial centers, the city currently lacks a clear downtown or any central gathering place. During the

General Plan Update process, community stakeholders regularly cited examples of adjacent communities they like to visit and patronize because those communities have thriving historic, revitalized and newly created downtowns. Some of the cities mentioned are: Brea, Chino Hills, Claremont, Fullerton and Monrovia. Q. Why was this site chosen? Which other sites were considered? A. During the General Plan 2040 process, several sites were initially identified and discussed as potential locations for the Town Center. Other sites under consideration included the intersection of Grand Avenue and Diamond Bar Boulevard and different portions of the golf course. These evaluations included extensive public input. Ultimately, the Diamond Bar Boulevard and Golden Springs Drive area was determined to be the best location for a Town Center. The site’s scale, topography, accessibility and relationship to existing residential areas made it the preferred location for a re-envisioned downtown for Diamond Bar, and it was also preferred by community members who provided input into this process. Additional FAQs are posted on the dedicated project website at http:// www.downtown4db.com/resources.

New Online Budget Platform The City has launched its first online, interactive budget platform. This platform, which can be found at www.diamondbarca.gov/budget, is designed to allow residents to explore the City’s latest fiscal year budget in a visual, interactive, and easy-to-understand format. In addition to an overview of the City’s organizational structure and financial position, the platform provides information about the budget process and details on where City dollars come from and how they are spent in both numerical and graphical formats.

CONFIDENTIAL OR SENSITIVE DOCUMENTS

August 27 Paper Shredding Event On August 27, the City is hosting its final standalone paper shredding event for this year. The event, which takes place from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the South Coast Air Quality Management District (AQMD) parking lot, is an opportunity for residents to dispose of documents that contain sensitive information in a secure and environmentally-safe manner. Examples of confidential documents that require special disposal to prevent identity theft are old tax records, bank statements, medical records, and legal documents. All paper will be shredded on site, and the shredded material will be recycled. In order to be shredded, documents must not be in binders, folders, plastic bags, or sheet protectors, and all rubber bands, file tabs, and binder clips must be removed. Staples and paper clips are OK. There is a limit of two banker-size boxes or one 13-gallon trash bag per household. This is contactless drive-through event in which individuals remain in their vehicles at all times while staff unload the documents to be shredded. The AQMD is located at 21865 Copley Drive.

Slated for October 29, the Halloween Party will feature a variety of games and activities, photo opportunities, and costume contests for people and dogs. Vendor opportunities are available to individuals or companies to sell or provide pet-related products or services. Winter Snow Fest, set for December 10, is a holiday and winter-themed event with snow hills and play areas, games and activities, and a craft fair.

The deadline to apply is October 7 and 21, respectively.

Reminder to Pick Up After Your Pet

Leaving pet waste behind on other people’s yards, sidewalks, and walking paths is inconsiderate, unsightly, harmful to the health of people, pets and the environment, and a violation of the Diamond Bar Municipal Code, Sec. 6.00.090. If you walk your dog in a neighborhood or nearby park or trail, always be prepared to pick up the waste, bag it, tie it closed, and toss it in the nearest public trash can. If you are in the habit of forgetting to take a plastic bag on your walks, consider purchasing a dog waste bag dispenser that can be attached to pet leashes. In Diamond Bar, the responsibility of enforcing laws involving animals and pets, including that of pet owners not cleaning up after their dogs, is assigned to the Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. (IVHS). If there is someone in your neighborhood who repeatedly fails to pick up after their pet, call IVHS at (909) 623-9777 between business hours of 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday. At minimum, you will need to provide your name and address, the address of the offender, a description of the dog, and the location, dates and times when the offenses took place.

Clear the Shelters Adoption Drive If you are ready to add a pet to your family, here is an opportunity you do not want to miss out on. This entire month (August 1-31), Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. (IVHS) is offering free or reduced pet adoption fees in support of Clear the Shelters, an NBC Universal Local campaign to get more animals adopted nationwide. As part of this drive, every dog and cat adopted through IVHS will be spayed or neutered, treated for fleas and ticks, dewormed, vaccinated, and microchipped. To learn more, visit www.ivhsspca.org or call 909-623-9777. DiamondBarCa.gov

IVHS Looking for Volunteers to Fill Temporary Foster Assignments As a full access shelter, the Inland Valley Humane Society & S.P.C.A. (IVHS) never turns away any abandoned or surrendered companion animal that comes through its doors from any of the cities it serves. And while the pressing objective is to get these animals spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and put up for adoption, not all of them are immediately ready – among these are orphaned or nursing puppies and kittens, pregnant cats or dogs, and animals with injuries, illnesses, or behavioral issues such as fearfulness, shyness, or separation anxiety. Because of limited shelter space and the short-term but special care these animals require before they can be made adoptionready, IVHS relies heavily on an army of volunteer fosters who commit to housing and caring for one or more of these animals for periods that typically range two to eight weeks. One of these volunteer fosters is Diamond Bar resident Tommye Cribbins. She took on her first foster assignment in April 2020 at the suggestion of one of her daughters, Kristina, who had become an IVHS foster a month earlier. “At first, I saw it [pet fostering] as something to do, a way to keep busy, but it has been a very rewarding experience,” Cribbins says. To date, Cribbins has fostered approximately 16 cats and dogs with varying degrees of responsibility. One involved caring for a pair of 1-week-old kittens, also known as bottle babies, that needed to be kept warm at all times and fed every two hours. Her other fostering assignments have included animals with special considerations because of health issues or behavioral problems. Cribbins gets emotional when she talks about her pet fostering experience. “It’s great to see them go from tiny and sick to strong and healthy, and running around,” Cribbins says. “Knowing you helped them get to the point, and that they will be going onto a permanent loving home is incredibly satisfying.” An animal person by nature, Cribbins’ pet family consists of two dogs - Frankie, a 3-year-old goldendoodle, Cuervo, a 17-year-old Pomchi (Chihuahua-Pomeranian mix), and two cats - Newman, 2 years old, and Trey, 4 months old. Cribbins says she has not had any interaction issues between her family pets and foster pets. “They all get along really well, Frankie especially gets excited when meeting and is very friendly with them, she says. Cribbins speaks highly of the way IVHS runs its Pets Foster Care

program, and they way they support volunteer fosters by providing all the food, supplies, and veterinary care the animals need while they are being fostered. “IVHS is really good about providing fosters everything they need if they do not have the means to obtain it themselves,” Cribbins says. “All fosters need to have is a love for animals, space in their home, and patience to care for them.” Although the majority of foster assignments involve pets with special needs, IVHS also has adult dogs, cats, rabbits, and companion animals who do not require as much close attention. “Companionship is another positive aspect of fostering,” Cribbins says. “The program allows you to have a pet companion without the long-term responsibility if you do not want it, and you have the option of getting a new pet every eight weeks or taking a break in between if you have travel plans or other commitments.” In addition to fostering, Cribbins also volunteers once a week for a few hours in the heath care center of IVHS where her responsibilities include taking the shelter dogs out for walks and providing after surgery care for the animals. “I enjoy being able to see IVHS staff at work, caring for our community’s animals,” Cribbins said. “The tough part of volunteering at the shelter though is not being able to foster all the animals that come through.” “I’ve learned that I can’t take them all home with me, but if you give an animal in need a moment of comforting and looking after, then you’ve done something good for them,” she adds. IVHS does not require fosters to live in Diamond Bar or any of its other service cities but they do strongly suggest they live within driving distance to the shelter to pick up food and supply refills as needed, and bring the pet in for their veterinary appointments.
