District to host town hall on public safety

​PHELAN, California (June 24, 2021) – The Phelan Piñon Hills Community Services District (“District”) will host a community town hall on Saturday, July 10, 2021, at 9:30 a.m. in Phelan Community Park. The topic will be “Community Safety.”
 
With rising concerns over community safety, primarily as a result of the large-scale marijuana grows proliferating throughout the District’s service area, the District will host a community town hall for District residents to hear from their elected representatives on how they are addressing this issue and ask questions about other safety related topics.
 
“The District is seeing an extraordinary number of large, industrial-scale marijuana grows moving into the area, and they are starting to popup in residential areas,” stated Don Bartz, General Manager. “We are very concerned about the side effects of these major grows which include bringing criminals into the area, water theft, trash dumping, sewage dumping, and chemical dumping. Our residents are concerned so we have put together a town hall for them to have their concerns addressed. We are pleased that so many of our elected representatives are eager to attend and help us address this matter.”
 
Confirmed to attend are Congressman Obernolte, Sheriff McMahon, Undersheriff Dicus, District Attorney Jason Anderson, State Senator Ochoa-Bogh, Assemblyman “Smitty” Smith, and Assemblyman Lackey; Supervisor Cook was also invited.
 
District residents are encouraged to attend. The town hall will take place in Phelan Community Park located at 4176 Warbler Road in Phelan. Residents are encouraged to email questions for their representatives to townhall@pphcsd.org

PHELAN, Calif. (January 7, 2021) - Each year, staff is tasked with preparing a budget for consideration at an annual Public Hearing in June.  The process leading up to the hearing includes several public meetings to provide the Board and the public with information for consideration and opportunities for input into the budget process.  These public meetings include workshops, committee, and Board meetings.

Beginning in January, committees review and update their respective Long Range Plans including the 10-year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Maintenance plans.  In February, staff gathers information in preparation for the budget.  February through March, the Board reviews and approves the Long Range Capital Plans and also provides staff with budget assumptions to be used based on the consumer price index and other economic factors.  Considering these guidelines, staff begins the process of preparing a draft budget.

Staff works with department managers and supervisors to obtain budget information and incorporates the data with the assumptions as directed by the Board.  The draft budget is reviewed by management and presented to the Finance Committee for consideration prior to being presented to the full Board.  The Final Draft Budget is made available for review and a public hearing is held in June.  The Final Draft Budget is presented to the Board during the public meeting for final review, consideration, and adoption.  All of these are public meetings and the District encourages public attendance and participation.

The events listed below have been scheduled to promote public participation and ensure the public has the opportunity to become familiar with the budget process.  The Public is invited to ALL of these sessions and is encouraged to attend.
