Construction, will not return her phone calls and she wants to know when
the drainage problem on his property is going to be resolved.
Barbara Shultz, 116 Sierra Avenue, spoke regarding the flooding problem in
their yards. She read portions of the General Plan Update where it
describes the Shasta Drain. She expressed concern that the construction
of the K -Mart shopping center will cause the problem to get worse.

regarding this item and allow them to respond in an appropriate manner to
her questions.

respond to Ms. Shultz.

acknowledged the good deeds of two youths who were instrumental in the
apprehension of the Suspects in the recent stabbing of Abdul Barakat. She
presented Linda Gomez and Maria Morales each with a check in the amount of
$100.00 from an "anonymous" donor.

Activities Committee. She requested the City Council approve the full
amount requested by MYAC for the Cinco de Mayo event instead of reducing
the amount as recommended by staff.
Mrs. Castro also requested that the City Council reduce or waive the fees
for the use of the Community Center for the Our Town activity, Girls Night
Out, which was recently held.

costly and is posing problems with his proposed affordable housing
project.
Ethel Sulkis, 270 Sierra, asked why the Park Lane carwash can only pump
gas on certain days. Councilmember Montgomery explained that one of the

sell gas by itself.
Gary Austin, 17512 Von Karman Avenue, Irvine, spoke representing Messenger
Investment. He indicated that the Council does not need to reopen the

Glenn Forster, 4308 Chase Avenue, Los Angeles, spoke as one of the
applicants. He described the measures that will be put in place to
address the concerns of the neighbors in the nearby residential
area, such as: 1) temporary directional signs are proposed to
eliminate players from becoming lost and causing unnecessary traffic
on the streets, 2) an employee of the paintball association will
direct traffic and let players know where the games are, 3) the
rules will be reviewed carefully with all participants so there are
no misunderstandings and, 4) Moorpark Express will provide lunch at
the site each day so the players will not have to leave in their
paintball uniforms to go to Moorpark restaurants.
Richard Forster spoke again and mentioned several concerns of the
citizens. He said goggles will not be worn in the parking lot as it
is unnecessary and that the netting will be more than sufficient to
prevent paintballs from being expelled from the playing field into
the parking lot.
Mr. Forster explained that the letter from Southern Pacific stating
their requirements was not produced at the meeting of January 23
because those items were not an issue at that time. He said they
will certainly produce the agreement with Southern Pacific once it
is finalized. He continued by saying that the emergency access road
required by the fire department is not really necessary and that the
control booth will be out of the flood plain by the time the games
open. In response to Councilmember Montgomery, he did state that 8%

and has benefitted from the teamwork and the friendship it allows.

Tony Simen, 726 Nogales Avenue, stated several reasons why the
paintball field should be disapproved. He listed the reasons as
being 1) access road is too narrow to accommodate the traffic that
will be involved, 2) it will bring illegal activity with the
shooting of guns, etc., 3) the cost is $30.00 per day which is not
prohibitive for many people to play, 4) it will adversely affect the
environment and cause noise and littering throughout Virginia
