TCSD Levy/Special Tax/Budget FY 1997-98
Community Services Director Shawn Nelson presented the staff report.
Chairman Henz expressed a concern that residents do not recognize their designated
street sweeping days and continue to park on the streets on those days. Chairman Henz
questioned whether or not those individuals could be ticketed.
Development Services Administrator Phyllis Ruse explained that in order to ticket these
cars, the City would have to establish an ordinance and post signs. Because the hauler
R:\minutes\051297.csd
has the authority to change the day on which they haul and/or sweep a particular route,
this may require that the signage be changed. Staff and the hauler has decided the best
approach is to enforce the "no street parking" through public education,
Director Nelson suggested that CR&R take the following steps to ensure the public is
complying with the established guidelines for the solid waste program:
Provide each resident with a mailer reminding them of their trash/street sweeping
day
Send information to the Homeowner's Association Board of Directors
Propose that CR&R do an aggressive campaign to enforce this program
Commissioner Comerchero said he feels maintaining a positive relationship between the
Police Department and the public is very important and having some portions of a street
dirty could be overlooked to avoid a breakdown in the law enforcement's relations with
the public.
This report was receive and file.
Trail System InterDretive Plaques
Deputy Director Herman Parker presented the staff report. Deputy Director Parker said
a design committee will be formed and the names of individuals and places that should
be recognized will be discussed and determined by the committee.
It was moved by Commissioner Miller, seconded by Commissioner Nimeshein to approve
the inclusion of interpretive plaques in the City-wide Multi-Trail System Master Plan.
The motion carried as follows:
AYES: 5

Historical Preservation
Deputy Director Herman Parker presented the staff report.
Director Nelson said that should the Museum Foundation be unable or does not have the
desire to pursue the preservation of historical sites within the community, staff will
recommend that a group or committee be formed to address this issue.
R:\minutes\O51297,csd
Commissioner Edwards said he does not feel the museum is the appropriate choice.
Commissioner Comerchero concurred with Commissioner Edwards. He stated that he
agrees the responsibility of historical preservation should be with a non-profit
organization, however he does not feel the museum has shown any interest with regards
to this issue since their formation and therefore another organization should be asked
to take on this project or a group be formed to address the need for historical
preservation.
Commissioner Miller agreed with Commissioners Edwards and Comerchero.
Director Nelson suggested one or two members of the Commission become involved in
forming a non-profit historical society.
Commissioner Nimeshein said although the Temecula Museum did not present
themselves well in this area, he feels they should be given the first opportunity to work
on this issue. He suggested that if they were given the guidelines and opportunities, as
well as the support of the City, they may be willing to take an active role in historical
preservation.
Commissioners Miller and Edwards volunteered to go before the Temecula Museum
Board and ask them if they have an interest in taking an active role in historical site
preservation in the City of Temecula.

Re-Naming the Old Town Temecula Senior Center
PREPARED BY: ~Herman D. Parker, Deputy Director of Community Services
RECOMMENDATION:
That the Community Services Commission:
Approve a recommendation for the City Council to re-name the Old Town Temecula Senior
Center, the Mary Phillips Senior Center.
BACKGROUND: At the April 22, 1997 City Council meeting, Mr. Irv Rhodes,
President of the Golden Years of Temecula Valley, presented to the City Council a petition of
over 170 signatures and a request from the Golden Years to re-name the Old Town Temecula
Senior Center, the Mary Phillips Senior Center. The Golden Years are requesting this facility's
name changed in an effort to remember and memorialize the countless hours of work and
dedication Mary Phillips devoted to the development of the Old Town Temecula Senior Center
and the formation of the Golden Years of Temecula Valley.
Mary Phillips, who passed away in January of this year, was an active community leader in
Temecula, committed to enhancing the quality of life for Temecula senior citizens. She devoted
countless hours of her time cultivating community interest and awareness of the need for a
senior center and recreation and social services for senior citizens. She met with community
leaders, city staff and other senior citizens, to share her vision of a new senior center here in
Temecula. Mrs. Phillips played an integral role in the development of the Old Town Temecula
Senior Center, and her peers are requesting to re-name the senior center in her honor.
If the Commission approves this recommendation, staff will prepare an agenda report for City
Council recommending the Old Town Temecula Senior Center be re-named the Mary Phillips
Senior Center.

swim, Jr. Lifeguard Program, and swim team programs offered by the Temecula Triton's Swim

members. All staff members are trained in CPR, First-Aid and Title 22. Staff members are
responsible for providing a safe environment, as well as, the ability to react appropriately should
an emergency occur. Due to the success of the Aquatic Program, many seasonal staff
members return each year to work for the City of Temecula.

to occupy the facility during public swim.
