Page 8 January 21, 2016 EL SEGUNDO HERALD City Council from front page and deploy them to patrol. Tavera added that the department is “actively recruiting” new officers, but that the process takes 18 months to two years. While not at liberty to comment about ongoing union negotiations and how that might impact morale and/or people potentially leaving for other departments, Fellhauer emphasized “it doesn’t change the fact that they’re [police officers] still doing their job when they’re here. Our cops are amazing here in El Segundo.” She attributed much of the crime increase to the AB109 and Prop 47 legislation that have put more criminals on the streets. Mayor Suzanne Fuentes added that the Council approved the hiring of three new officers during the summer strategic planning sessions. “As Councilmembers, we live here too—we all have the same concerns,” she said. The community will have to wait longer than usual to find out whom the Council members will select as the next Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem. Thanks to a state legislative change, those who vote by mail will now have up to eight days after the April 12 election to sign their ballot (or turn in an unsigned ballot statement) to the City Clerk’s office if they neglected to do so initially. That means the City Clerk won’t be able to officially certify the final results in time for the Council meeting that takes place one week after election---the date the Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem must be chosen, according to local municipal code. The Council will now have up to four weeks to make the selections in the future and will do so this year during the May 3 meeting. As a result, the current Council will preside over the April 19 meeting with any new members waiting an extra two weeks to be sworn in. On another election-related matter, the Council approved a language change on the ballot with updated instructions to vote for “no more than three” candidates for City Council. The amended text clarifies the fact that voters at their discretion can opt for anywhere from zero to three candidates. Also on Tuesday, the Council approved a contract with Sierra School Equipment Company to refinish the seating in the Council Chambers and to install new carpeting—a project deferred for many years. Work will be done when the Council is not in session between March 16 and April 4. After that time, the Council will determine whether or not to paint the existing interior brick or drywall over it. At the beginning of the meeting, the Council recognized the winning entries from last month’s 52nd Annual Holiday Parade. On behalf of the El Segundo Chamber of Commerce, Parade Committee member Linda Johnson handed out trophies to Knights of Columbus (Grand Marshal’s Award), El Segundo Women’s Club (Best Use of Theme), El Segundo Recreation and Parks (Best Holiday Spirit-Children), Rotary Club of El Segundo (Best Holiday Spirit-Adult), El Segundo Youth Cheerleaders (Best Performers-Children), South Bay Coastliners (Best Performers- Adult), El Segundo Elementary Band (Best Musical Band-Elementary), Jane Addams Middle School “Mighty Marching Bengals” (Best Musical Band-Middle School), and El Segundo High School Band and Color Guard (Best Musical Band-High School). • Call Now 800-409-2420 Call Now 800-918-4172 Are You Still Paying Too Much For Your Medications?
