2 Heelo Velasquez, Citizenship Class, Petaluma Adult School, thanked Council for their hospitality
3 and the opportunity to see the democratic process in action.
4
5 Janice Cader-Thompson, Petaluma, spoke of the need for developers and businesses to meet
6 and talk about water, and said it is unfair to expect residents to do all the water use reduction.
7
8 Tamara Miller, Petaluma, feels it important the public and the City Council hear the input of a
9 hydrogeologist on the current status of our wafer resources so that when water conservation
10 policies are put in place, they are based on our current situation.
11
12 Phylicia Sheean, Senior Assistance, LLC, Petaluma, asked Council's help in determining why her
13 business, which has relocated from San Rafael to Petaluma, has not been granted a business
14 license.
15
16 Susan Lamont, Justice Coalition for Andy Lopez and Peace & Justice Center of Sonoma County,
17 Santa Rosa, spoke regarding the culture of law enforcement.
18
19 Bryant Moynihan, Nexus Realty Group, Inc., Petaluma, said that historically, office use has been
20 a permitted use in industrial zoned parks but with updates to the zoning ordinance, there are
21 now many offices that are non -conforming, according to the Planning Department. When new
22 businesses come to occupy existing office space in buildings, they are being told they are not
23 permitted. He asked Council to amend the ordinance to indicate that office uses are a
24 permitted use in the industrial zoned parks in Table 4.4.
25
26 Zen Destiny, Petaluma, spoke of issues he had with members of the Petaluma Police Department
27 and other City staff.
28
29 Gregory, Slugocki, Director of Development, National Storage Tank, Inc., Santa Rosa, said that
30 recycled water should be used to mix concrete and to suppress dust on construction sites, and
31 offered his help in developing a program.
32
33 Arthur Deicke, EPS, Santa Rosa, believes that the emphasis should be on water conservation,
34 and not on a building moratorium.
35
36 Devika Goetschius, Petaluma, said she is encouraged that water issues will be discussed on April
37 27th and May 4th, and hopes that the Council will not move directly to a moratorium without a
38 deeper discussion.
39
40 Dan Calamuci, Researcher, Carpenters Local 751, Santa Rosa, asked that Council consider the
41 concerns of labor and the local construction industry as they move forward with water policies.
42
43 Katherine Bobrowski, Petaluma, spoke of problems at the mobile home park where she lives.
44
45 Jim Soules, Keller Court, LLC, Petaluma, would like to encourage a task force to consider
46 innovative solutions to the water shortage. He said he will be submitting a proposal to use on -
47 site, treated gray water for landscaping on the Keller Court Commons project.
48
49 Dmitri Rusov-Morningstar, Sustainable Residential Design, Santa Rosa, told Council he has clients
50 in Petaluma with projects that are currently in the permit process and he is worried that a
51 moratorium might means those projects would not be granted permits. He suggested that

Council consider that the CalGreen [California Green Building Standards Code] requirements
are very stringent and require upgrades that will help conserve water.
Mayor Glass
Dave Alden, Petaluma, said he is in favor of increased water conservation, and if a 45- or 90 -day
moratorium is the best way to achieve that, he's fine with that, but if's time to build a sustainable
community.
Seeing no other persons wishing to speak, Mayor Glass closed GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT.
