HERE COMES THE ...

Long Beach Shakespeare Company’s Falstaff and Prince Hal Anita W. Harris Staff Writer

In honor of William Shakespeare’s birthday month, the Long Beach Shakespeare Company (LBSC) is presenting two “old-time radio” plays, the first of which, Falstaff and Prince Hal, continues at the Richard Goad Theatre through April 15 and centers on the boozing, exaggeration-prone

Sir John Falstaff and his witty interactions with the young Prince Henry, or Hal. You can then see Falstaff fall in love in LBSC’s Merry Wives of Windsor later this month.

Performed as a late-1930s radio broadcast, Falstaff and Prince Hal takes passages from Shakespeare’s history play Henry IV, Part I and voices those parts with sound effects as if in a real Long Beach radio studio, KBRD, complete with commercials.

In excerpting and adapting the play, artistic director Brandon Alexander Cutts notes that the aging Falstaff has a “boyish charm that never seems to grow up, like a less adventurous Peter Pan with a drinking problem,” making him an entertaining subject for this one-hour production.

We see (or rather, hear) Falstaff interacting with the young Prince Hal, both in the tavern and on the battlefield, playing pranks and exchanging witty insults while drinking endless rounds of “sack” before venturing into war with a rebel faction led by the Percy family.

In one engaging tavern scene, Falstaff and Hal role-play, with Falstaff as Hal and the boy speaking as his own father, King Henry IV, who expects him to face up to his obligations rather than cavort with his friends.

Gerardo Macias voices Prince Hal with charm, with Kevin McGrath reading the part of Falstaff. RJ Brown-

field engages as Hal’s friend Poins, and Andy Kallok and Byron Spearman round out the cast, voicing their supplementary characters distinctly and humorously.

The battle scene is enhanced with real swords clashing. You’ll also enjoy hearing Falstaff on the battlefield philosophize about why honor doesn’t matter as much as survival to justify his playing dead, and then listen to him exaggerate his role in the war.

The talented Jo McLachlan directs and performs some of the smaller parts, sound effects and music, using a harmonica and small accordion. Leonardo Lermas handles most of the other effects and voiceover, and they both contribute to the very entertaining commercials promoting local businesses and the Long Beach Historical Society.

Hearing Falstaff’s witticisms, insults and embellishments is a fitting way to toast “the Bard” during his birthday month. This radio-style performance keeps the emphasis on Shakespeare’s words, which the passionately committed LBSC crew bring to life.

Falstaff and Prince Hal continues at the Richard Goad Theatre, 4250 Atlantic Ave., through April 15, with shows Friday at 8pm, Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 2pm. Tickets are $12.50. For tickets and information, call (562) 997-1494 or visit LBShakespeare.org.

Theatre review

Love Never Dies at the Pantages Theatre Anita W. Harris Staff Writer

Raise your hand if you think Christine should have stayed with the Phantom in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s 1986 musical Phantom of the Opera. Sure, the Phantom could be creepy and possessive, and okay, a little manipulative.

But that’s only because he was never loved, right? You’ll be happy to know the Phantom gets another chance to ensnare Christine and get rid of that pesky Raoul once and for all in the touring production of Love Never Dies, continuing through April 22 at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre.

The action takes place on Coney Island, New York, where the Phantom (Gardar Thor Cortes) has set up shop with Madame Giry (Karen Mason)—

who had smuggled him out of France ten years earlier— and her daughter Meg (Mary Michael Patterson).

The Phantom’s new theatre is the carnival-esque Mister Y’s Phantasma, set against a backdrop of glittering Coney Island rollercoasters. Among the circus acts and attractions, Meg sings and dances, hoping the Phantom will notice her. Three clowns— little person Fleck (Katrina Kemp), tall Gangle (Stephen Petrovich), and round Squelch (Richard Koons)— accompany us through this vivid, zany world.

The now famous Christine (Meghan Picerno) has been lured to sing in this realm on the promise of money, since husband Raoul (Sean Thompson) has a gambling problem on top of his alcoholism. But that’s not all! They also have a young son in tow, Gustave (Casey Lyons and Jake Heston Miller), whose vulnerability makes Christine even more susceptible to the Phantom’s tricks.

Despite Raoul’s character flaws, Thompson gives him more of a presence than in Phantom of the Opera, his strong tenor revealing self-awareness of his weaknesses as a husband in one poignant saloon song.

Other scenes, especially between the Phantom and Christine, positively drip with emotional torment. Their initial meeting in Christine’s suite (while Raoul is down at the hotel bar) is not only musically rich but passionate in suggesting that their previous meeting ten years earlier may have involved more than just a kiss.

The story that follows (extensively reworked a year after the show first opened in 2010) takes as many twists and turns as its rollercoaster backdrop, culminating in a suspenseful and shocking conclusion. Reflecting that intricacy, the stage is sometimes literally a hall of mirrors.

But it’s the music that soars above all the spectacle. Both Cortes and Picerno are opera singers, lending the Phantom an exquisite baritone and Christine an angelic soprano. The boy Gustave, played by two actors, Lions and Miller, adds his own pristine notes to the mix.

Lloyd Webber’s score, conducted by Dale Rieling, is layered and evocative, with strains from Phantom of the Opera occasionally interspersed, though lyrics by Glenn Slater are sometimes simple and repetitive, especially in the title song. More nuance in those words might have made that song as memorable as those from the original Phantom.

Still, Love Never Dies does not disappoint, especially if you’re a Phantom fan, often transcending expectations, both visually (including choreography) and musically. Despite its shortcomings, the production succeeds in pulling our hearts and minds to the heights of the Phantom’s genius and plummeting us to the depths of his devastation. And isn’t that what love is all about?

Love Never Dies continues at the Hollywood Pantages Theatre, 6233 Hollywood Blvd., L.A., through April 22, with performances Tuesday through Friday at 8pm, Saturdays at 2pm and 8pm, and Sundays at 1pm and 6:30pm.

Tickets start at $49. For tickets and information, call the theatre at (323) 4681770 or visit hollywoodpantages.com.

opened in March 1926.

At the time Mary Trodd’s story was told in the Press-Telegram, in August 1941, she still had a yellowed record showing that the total book circulation of March, April and May of 1926 was 26 books. She worked without salary until 1929, when she was given $10 per month. It was eventually raised to $50 a month, and by 1941 it was considerably higher.

The library eventually expanded, placed on the top floor of

Seventy-two-year-old Mrs. Trodd still worked at the library when interviewed by the Press-Telegram in 1941. She proudly told reporters the library now had 4,000 books and regularly received 35 magazines and three newspapers. Monthly circulation averaged 625 volumes. She knew– she kept her own records. She didn’t need a secretary.

Mary Maud Chandler Trodd continued working as Signal Hill librarian until shortly before her death on Dec. 6, 1943, at age 74. The woman who so loved books was living with her widowed stepson William Trodd, still in Signal Hill, at a house at 1287 23rd St. Her other sons and daughter lived nearby. There were no Japanese neighbors. What few remained after oil was discovered had been placed in “relocation” camps because of the war.

Mary would be very happy to learn the old library at 1770 E. Hill St., located in the city’s former 1931 fire station, is being replaced. The small steps she had taken to create the Signal Hill Public Library have paid off.

Commentary continued from page 4

The teacher models deep, controlled breathing with a hand on her belly, as the young girl mimics her. “He took my toy,” the tiny girl explains, still a little upset, but definitely more regulated than before. The teacher masterfully empathizes with the girl and both go to the boy, not to confront him, but to help him feel calm and understood too. Without any more tears, the boy apologizes un-coerced, and the two children are playing with the toy together.

The Head Start population has allowed me to show more of experiential-play therapy in action, demonstrating the value of truly understanding these young children, because their play is their language.

It was brought to my attention that a very young boy, maybe almost 3 years old, was very oppositional and aggressive towards the staff and other children. The teachers didn’t understand his outbursts nor know how best to respond to him. I spent some time “being with” him, noticing his shoes,

the superheroes on his shirt, and how he runs, jumps and climbs. Everything about him is valuable, and I convey that to him by reflecting to him what I see. His speech is minimal and almost impossible to understand.

But his language of play is crystal-clear. He lights up when I notice and value all that he does. He seeks to be known and valued. He carries around a stuffed animal, pushing it in a toy shopping cart, sitting with it, climbing with it and nurturing it. I explain to the Head Start staff that the toy represents him and how he needs to be nurtured. They understand. Helping regulate this young boy will require many adults “being with” him.

PAC

continued from page 2

Facebook page was established is a Democrat. According to Animal PAC’s website, it has endorsed US Senator Kevin de Leon, LA City Councilmember Paul Koretz, California State Senator Ben Allen, Assembly Member Adrin Nazarian, West Hollywood Councilmember John D’Amico and LA County Assessor Jeffrey Prang.

Turner explained that she herself is a Democrat and thus has no “ax to grind” regarding Animal PAC’s party affiliation.

“Looking at these facts, it appears that Animal PAC is a mechanism for making certain candidates appear animal-friendly in order to appeal to animal-loving voters, whether or not the candidates have a record of helping animals,” Turner said. “Animal PAC is also soliciting donations for these candidates from compassionate animal-lovers, and it’s not clear that this money is actually being used to help animals.”

In a phone interview Thursday morning, however, Animal PAC Executive Director Tony Hale explained that his organization sends invitations to many candidates, despite party affiliation, to reply to its questionnaire about animal-welfare policies, and, based on those responses, decides whether or not to endorse them.

When asked about the timing of Animal PAC’s endorsing Garcia, Price and Uranga just before Election Day, and on the heels of NKLB’s voter guide, Hale said he was not aware of the other animal-advocacy group’s ratings of candidates until after his own had made its endorsements. He said that he views NKLB’s candidate scoring system as a way for that group to affect the election indirectly.

“It’s trying to play a part in the election without being a political committee, which they have a right to do,” he said.

“I’m just not sure what kind of entity they are. As far as the timing of the endorsement, we only endorse people who seek our endorsement and who complete a questionnaire. The first [Long Beach] candidate to complete a questionnaire was Uranga.”

Hale said Uranga submitted his responses on Jan. 25 and that Garcia and Price did so soon thereafter.

“We were eager to endorse [Long Beach incumbents] because of the progress that we had been following at the Long Beach shelter,” Hale said. “The Long Beach shelter had been making news on past improvements– 75 percent– on the amount of dogs that were destroyed at the shelter. That put Long Beach on our radar as a city experiencing success on our issues.”

No matter whether Animal PAC’s endorsements were indeed last-ditch efforts by some of Long Beach’s Democratic incumbents to be shown in a positive light for pet lovers or were simply several more in the ongoing list of endorsers that arise during a large city’s election season, Turner said her group just wants one thing.

“You know, when all is said and done, what we’ve been asking for here is an adoption program– just an adoption program at the city-run shelter, whose purpose is to put animals into loving homes and save their lives,” she said. “That’s really all it is for us– saving animals’ lives– and an effective adoption program would do that.

The question is why do we still not have one and why were nearly 1,100 animals killed last year at the shelter when we and other animal advocates Kevin Skwarski 27 have been talking to the City about R.Thomas Crammer 82 this issue for four years now? This reshouldn’t be controversial. We’re Barbara Van Winkle 62 ally just trying to save lives here. It’s pretty simple, really.” ✦ William Lott 80

of animals at the shelter– an effective adoption program.”

Uranga’s camp, however, has pointed out that the treasurer for the councilmember’s campaign and Animal PAC– Gary Crummitt– also serves in that position for numerous others.

In a phone interview Wednesday, Celina Luna, Uranga’s chief of staff, said Crummitt is one of a very small pool of professional treasurers available in the city.

“He covers most of the elected officials in Long Beach, as well as the Long Beach Lambda Democratic Club and a couple of the unions, so it’s really not surprising that we would share a treasurer, ” Luna said.

According to Luna, it is simply about compliance.

“To use the word ‘treasurer’ the way we use the word ‘treasurer’ is purely compliance,” Luna said. “Gary doesn’t have any say on how we spend our money or how the Animal PAC spends their money. It’s strictly compliance in turning in the forms to regulatory agencies. So, [there is] no correlation between Gary being the conduit to transfer money across these accounts. Gary is purely the person who does compliance for all of these entities.”

Luna said there are only two such treasurers in Long Beach, so the fact that Crummitt works for both the councilmember’s campaign and Animal PAC is merely a matter of availability.

“There’s only one other person in the game and one person who does it half-time,” Luna said. “So, if you have a compliance requirement like many of us do, you’d likely go to Gary or the other person or the person who does it halftime at their law firm. Just not many players in the game.”

In a phone interview thereafter, Crummitt essentially restated what Luna said regarding compliance.

“You have to understand the treasurer duties,” Crummitt said. “I serve as treasurer for over 200 political-action committees, which includes candidate committees. There are very few professional treasurers in the area, and sometimes some of the PACS make contributions or endorsements to my candidate. Now, all I do as the treasurer is compliance. I have no say on how the funds are raised or spent. There’s a principal officer of a political-action committee that makes those determinations. I take direction from my client.”

The Signal Tribune asked Crummitt how long he has served as treasurer for Animal PAC. “They were previously with a law firm in Los Angeles, and then they transferred over to me,” he said. “Their state-local PAC I took over September of ‘17.”

When asked how long he has served in that capacity for Uranga’s campaign, Crummitt said he’s been treasurer for the councilmember since September 2013, working on both his 2014 and 2018 campaigns.

As for endorsements, Turner said NKLB’s research revealed that every candidate Animal PAC has supported over the roughly eight months since its

Harris explained how, for seven years, Republicans were trying to get rid of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) that was signed under former President Barack Obama. She stated that the party began to politicize the act and coined it Obamacare. Then, Donald Trump took office, and his administration made repealing and replacing the ACA their No. 1 priority.

“It was interesting to see that some of the town halls that would happen in so-called red states, folks would show up and say, ‘Yeah, get rid of that Obamacare, but this here health care I got right now, I like this,’” Harris said while laughing with the audience. “Even though it was not perfect, what it did was it dealt with things like pre-existing conditions and said that that should not be a barrier to having access. It said that it should not be a deficit if you happen to be a woman, and therefore, responsible for reproducing the human race, that you should not have barriers to your ability or have to pay more for your ability to have access to reproductive health care.”

The outcome of the ACA supports the theme of commonality Harris discussed at the beginning of the townhall gathering.

“Back to my earlier point,” she said.

“We should look at a victory in terms of the people speaking and understanding there are certain things we all have in common. What ended up happening is that people in so-called red states and so-called blue states and purple states spoke up and said, ‘Don’t play politics with our health care.’”

The attempt, according to Harris, to repeal and replace Obamacare was defeated because of the people who stood up and spoke out exhibiting “the beautiful system of democracy.”

“As we are going through these days, and we are shouting at the TV, and we are wringing our hands, and we are having all of these feelings of anxiety and frustration,” Harris said, “let’s remember also that, again, it may not be perfect, but we designed a beautiful system of democracy in terms of making sure that the people can have a voice, and hopefully, will be heard.”

ilies,” she said. “But then the budget, and I know this, because I reviewed this in my role on the budget committee, the budget for the Department of Labour– that part of the budget that is supposed to be designed to deal with workforce training programs– got cut.

Well, that is not in the best interest of what we need to do.”

However, Harris informed the audience how California is a leader in terms of stimulating economic activity and more jobs.

“The Bureau of Labour Statistics came out with their report about what jobs America needs in the next 10 years,” Harris said. “On that list are solar paneling and wind turbine, and we, as Californians, have always been talking about part of what we need to do to build our economy is to focus on renewable energy and all of the jobs that come with a dedication to that.

That is very exciting, because we have been doing that work in California.”

Education Towards the end of the town-hall gathering, Harris began answering questions from the audience.

A resident asked that, since “Long Beach is an education town, what can we do to support your efforts, and where do you see the federal government and U.S. Senate? What could you do to help us improve locally within the education area as well?”

“One of the best ways to achieve safety in a community, much less productivity and success in a community, is to focus on educating our young people,” Harris responded. “Those are just dollars better spent.”

Harris added that she is also in favor of college-free tuition.

“There are so many of our students right now that are sitting back, you know, out of high school, in high school or sitting down at the kitchen table with their parents looking at the numbers and wondering does it make any financial sense for them to go to college,” she described. “Those that do, end up with a burden in terms of student-loan debt that is literally distracting them from their ability to thrive and to be creative and to succeed.

Hospital

Denny Cristales | Signal Tribune

In his remarks during a public hearing on April 11 at The Grand, John Bishop, CEO of the MemorialCare Health System, explained that the decision was made to close Community Hospital Long Beach because an active fault line was identified beneath a significant portion of the facility, and the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development (OSHPD) said it was not feasible to make the building seismically compliant. He said MemorialCare is doing all it can to mitigate the impact of Community’s closure.

He explained that an in-depth seismic study completed at Community Hospital in early 2016 identified a much larger active fault beneath the entire property, with the exception of the front-right portion of the area, than originally thought when MemorialCare integrated Community into its system in 2011. Two additional seismic reports in 2017, conducted with the City of Long

Beach, confirmed the findings. In June 2017, OSHPD confirmed with MemoricalCare there was no feasible way for Community Hospital to become seismically compliant and continue as an acute-care hospital.

In November, MemorialCare made the findings public and announced the planned closure of the facility.

“I want to emphasize that we did explore all options to continue to

provide critical-care services, and we spent nearly $1 million trying to find a solution, and we simply couldn't,” Bishop said. “This was absolutely not a business decision. It has been said by many. And, I can say that with 100-percent certainty, because I was in every discussion, and I was in every board meeting [...] I know this is a very emotional time for the community.”

As a result of the announcement, Bishop said it has become increasingly challenging to maintain the depth of resources necessary to maintain Community as an acutecare medical facility. He added that MemorialCare is supporting its employees during this transition by hosting job fairs and outplacement workshops, providing retention bonuses and guaranteeing positions within MemorialCare for 114 employees, including 72 registered nurses.

To mitigate the impact of Community's closure, Long Beach Medical Center has increased its number of observation beds and converted medical-surgical and telemetry-monitor beds. The medical center has also included additional resources.

“We have done everything we could for the community,” Bishop said, “and no one wants this hospital to stay open more than we do.”

During public remarks, there were significantly more of those in favor of brainstorming a long-term solution to keep Community as an operable medical space.

Signal Hill Vice Mayor Forester said residents in his city depend on Community for most of their medical needs.

“My whole east side, or about 6,000 residents, depend on Community Hospital,” he said. “I went to Community in January at the recommendation of my doctor. This is because Memorial is too crowded.

We need those beds, we need that service. I’m here to say please help us keep Community open.”

Supervisor Hahn said closing Community was a solution that no resident in the Long Beach area wanted to hear.

“This community medical center

here has served the residents for 90 years,” she said. “There have been so many people who have been served by the hospital, who have been born in this hospital. [...] This hospital has deep roots within the community. It really has put the ‘community’ in Community Hospital.”

Marisol Barajas, district director with Assemblymember O’Donnell’s office, briefly detailed Assembly Bill 2591, which was introduced in February as a means to buy more time for the east-side facility. The bill seeks to extend the hospital’s seismic-compliance deadline by five years to preserve the medical services to patients. As reported by the Signal Tribune in March, the bill has to go through multiple steps to get final approval this year.

James Rexwinkel, deputy chief with the Long Beach Fire Department, responded to a question about current setbacks within the fire department since Community was placed on diversion. He said the southeast side of Long Beach, where rescues are out of service for longer periods of time as a result of transporting patients from St. Mary Medical Center to Memorial, has so far been the most impacted.

Jackie McKay, who has been a nurse at Community Hospital for 33 years, put the whole circumstance in brief and straightforward terms– medical care must be provided, regardless of who is operating Community.

“The hospital may be small, but it has a big heart, and it shows in the work that we do,” McKay said. “We just need to be allowed to do that work. If not with MemorialCare, then perhaps with someone who does care.” ✦

Classified-ad website shut down after allegations of promoting human-trafficking Backpage.com, the second-largest classified-ad website after Craigslist, was shut down April 6 after a joint law-enforcement effort. In a

press release announcing the closure, California Attorney General Xavier Becerra called the website “the world’s largest online brothel.”

The website’s closure was the result of an effort involving the California Department of Justice (CA DOJ), the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Arizona, the United States Department of Justice’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, the United States Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California and the office of the Texas Attorney General.

In August 2017, the CA DOJ commenced a criminal prosecution against the operators of Backpage. com in People of the State of California v. Carl Ferrer, Michael Lacey & James Larkin. The case is being prosecuted in Sacramento County Superior Court.

“We welcome and salute the action of our federal partners to ensure that those who traffic young women and men online are held accountable, not just for their crimes in California but throughout the world,” Becerra said. “Our office will continue to work in partnership with federal and state law-enforcement agencies to protect those who are exploited and sold for sex.”

“It was a long process, and we worked out a process by which this financial contribution would be made,” he said. “The money is being well-spent.”

Banking services The council also approved changing the City’s investment-safekeeping bankers from Union Bank to Wells Fargo in order to save $15,000 in annual fees.

“A safekeeping account is a specialized account […] for the storage of financial assets,” Finance Director Scott Williams explained. “We use this account when we purchase an investment security, and after the trade clears, it is placed in this account.”

Williams said that, although the City had moved most of its banking services to Wells Fargo two years ago, it had kept its investment-safekeeping services with Union Bank.

Wells Fargo would not charge the City the $15,000 in fees for this service because of the volume of business it does with the City.

Councilmember Edward Wilson asked why this service was not changed two years ago when the City adopted Wells Fargo as its banker.

“I believe at that time we probably weren’t aware of a safekeeping service that was available to the City,” Williams said. “Union Bank […] is a very common intermediary for this purpose.”

Community foundation In a non-financial decision, the council authorized the city manager to execute a five-year memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the City and the nonprofit Signal Hill Community Foundation (SHCF).

Aly Mancini, community services director, explained that SHCF was established in 2002 and its last fiveyear MOU with the City has expired.

“The specific and primary purpose of the foundation is to support the City by providing funding through grants, donations, corporate sponsors, […] for charitable, cultural, recreational and educational purposes to benefit the community,” Mancini said.

She added that SHCF’s board of directors consists of members of the city council, Parks and Recreation Commission, businesses in Signal Hill and community members.

Among its projects, she said, are conducting a community yard sale to support senior programs, cohosting the Concerts in the Park series, partnering with the Signal Hill Police Foundation for an annual holiday outreach, sponsoring the Spring Fest and Halloween carnival programs and running the brick programs that support the dog park and library.

The MOU requires the City to contribute facilities, staff support and marketing in exchange for these services. The City is also the fiscal agent for foundation funds, though a third-party accountant provides its monthly financial reports.

“The City is very fortunate to have partnerships with nonprofit organizations that raise money and provide volunteers to support the programs that benefit this community,” Honeycutt said.

had retired last August. Hansen explained that after an extensive interview process, she and City staff decided to promote Hughes from his previous position as library assistant, which he had held since January 2012.

“It became very clear to me that extra time was what Charles needed to be ready to move into the position of librarian,” Hansen said. “I love the fact that we have a male librarian. I think that that opens up a whole other track for young males growing up, that maybe they wouldn’t have thought [of] before.”

She added that Hughes had also had 15 years of previous experience in library services, including as a library aide for the Los Angeles Public Library.

Hansen then presented a proclamation to Hughes in recognition of National Library Week.

“Libraries are not just about what they have for people, but what they do for and with people,” she said.

“Librarians are leaders […] and provide transformative opportunities for education, employment, entrepreneurship, empowerment and engagement, as well as new services

that connect closely with patrons’ needs.”

Public Works Director Kelli Tunnicliff gave the council an update on the new library, showing time-lapse video of its ongoing construction.

“It’s 15,000 square feet that encompasses things like the community room, the learning center, [and] a history room” she said. “It also has a terrace, restrooms and kitchen galley on the upstairs level, [and] there’s a parking lot and solar roof.”

Tunnicliff noted that library construction began in January and, thus far, has consisted of foundational work such as grading and sewer construction. It is scheduled to be completed in March 2019.

Environmental concerns During new business, a couple of council members remarked on environmental issues.

Wilson commented that he heard a presentation during a recent committee meeting for the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) by representatives of the city of Ventura, whom he would like to invite to present in Signal Hill.

The presentation was on how the

county of Ventura wanted to eliminate rodenticides and instead depend on birds of prey, such as owls and hawks, to eliminate rodents.

“They’ve erected perches and built houses for […] birds of prey,” Wilson recounted. “They just set these up for the birds to migrate there. […] It’s eliminating rodenticides, which are poisonous to all animals, […] even pets.”

Vice Mayor Larry Forester also gave an environmental pitch by reminding the council and audience about Earth Day on April 22.

“Let’s look at pollution, the negative health [effects] of plastics,” he said. “Let’s look at the harm wildfires have done to our land surface; let’s look at our drinking water, how we need to keep [its use] at a minimum. […] At least keep in mind that the global day of conversation is the 22nd.”

The next Signal Hill City Council meeting will take place Tuesday, April 24, at 7pm in the council chamber at 2175 Cherry Ave.
