Connecting with others through thoughtful conversations can help you destress and gain motivation without even realizing it! Make note of an activity or event that sounds fun and empowering to you. You are more likely to follow through if you assign a date and time to the event. Whichever self-care strategies you decide to take on, your routine is unique to you. Inspire 4 S E L F - C A R E S T R A T E G I E S those around you to dedicate some time to themselves as F O R L E A D E R S well. Self-care is worth the investment! You need self-care too! Practicing self-care is the best way to revitalize your mind and become more efficient in your day-to-day tasks! Investing time in yourself is not a waste of time or a sign of weakness. It is most beneficial to slow down when we are feeling stressed or overwhelmed. As a leader in your organization or community, you can also influence those around you to maintain mental health wellness by engaging in self-care practices. Here are 4 ways to start incorporating some self-care in your day- to-day: 1. Develop a Daily Wellness Routine Eating breakfast, working out, reciting positive affirmations, and listening to motivational podcasts are examples of simple wellness activities that can get you feeling empowered and ready to take on the day! What can you add to your daily routine to make you feel more energized? 2. Set Boundaries If you've worked from home at any point this year, you know the importance- and difficulty- of separating your work life from your home life. The lack of boundaries can create more stress in your life. Even if you are working from home or on-site, you can develop boundaries by understanding your limitations, being transparent about your limitations to others, and respecting your set schedule. 3. Schedule Breaks Believe it or not but fifteen to thirty minute breaks have a HUGE impact on your productivity. Take a break and rest. Yes, these breaks do include naps! By taking a step away from your work, you can regain focus and feel refreshed.

  • Office of the City Manager
    OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER April 15, 2016 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager AT SUBJECT: General Information Notable Items Among some of the early accomplishments of the Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP) were several improvements along 7th Standard Road. Some improvements involved multi-party agreements, State grants, and contributions from the County of Kern and City of Shafter. Due to the intricacies of these projects, it has taken a considerable amount of time to close out the respective grants and accounting records. As the case with a vast majority of TRIP projects, these improvements have cost less than budgeted. As a result, the City recently learned it will receive $1.7 million back in savings from our share of the cumulative projects. These funds are part of the federal earmark, which can now be applied toward the Centennial Corridor project. Ultimately, these funds will reduce the City’s borrowing amount for the project. The Centennial Plaza improvements are nearing completion. As displayed in the picture below, there is still some work to be done. Over the next few weeks, City staff will be mortaring the engraved tiles and bricks adjacent to the fountain and pouring stamped concrete in other locations at the Plaza. Many other improvements have recently been completed at the Plaza as well. These improvements include planting new trees and wrapping them in year-round lighting; placing bench seating under the trees for more shade; and adding stamped concrete that has the appearance of bricks throughout the Plaza. General Information Page 2 April 15, 2016 As a commitment to provide quality entertainment in Bakersfield, the City recently completed numerous improvements at the Bright House Network Amphitheatre.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Jeff Klitz February 13, 2015 [email protected] Grape Commission Awards Education Grants Nine Grants Awarded to Educators in Kern County Fresno, CA – Schools in the table grape growing regions of California’s San Joaquin and Coachella valleys are benefiting from grants awarded this academic year. In total, 36 education grants worth up to $750 were awarded by the California Table Grape Commission on behalf of California’s table grape growers and will reach over 4,000 students. Nine of the grants were awarded to educators in Kern County, with projects to be completed this spring. “California’s table grape growers have been supporting local education for years,” said Kathleen Nave, president of the commission. “This program is one of the ways table grape growers give back to the communities in which they live and work.” Examples of the projects in Kern County include agriculture lessons using MinecraftEdu (a video game), inspiring youth through chess and music, programming robots, learning vocabulary by studying owls, and using calculators to learn chemistry. Here are the Kern County grant recipients and their projects by school district: Bakersfield City School District • Sarah Riess, Horace Mann Elementary School. At-risk elementary school students will build confidence and stay fit by learning clogging steps and dances in a health class that meets three times per week. The group will perform for the entire student body and parents at assemblies and events. • Tapp Hancock, Frank West Elementary School. Third grade students will learn about owls, their habitats, diets, environments and more. Funds will be used to purchase owl pellet kits, posters, books and models of owls and prey.

    OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER March 18, 2016 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager AT SUBJECT: General Information Notable Items Good news! Last evening the Kern Council of Governments (Kern COG) awarded the City in the amount of $2.655 million in Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ) funds for the Truxtun Avenue Operational Improvements Project. As part of the Thomas Roads Improvement Program (TRIP), this award replaces local funds that would have been contributed to the project; thus, reducing the City’s overall debt obligation. This project will extend the improvements to Truxtun Avenue, performed as part of the Westside Parkway Phase 4 project, east through the Oak Street intersection. The project will make improvements to the Truxtun Avenue/Oak Street intersection and widen Truxtun Avenue to three lanes in each direction from just west of the State Route 99 overcrossing to east of Oak Street. In addition, the curve at the Truxtun Avenue/Westwind Drive intersection will be modified, and the project will construct a right-turn deceleration lane for westbound traffic turning north onto Westwind Drive. A special thanks to Kern COG’s Board and staff members for their support! A remarkable 25 candidates have been certified to run for Mayor. Attached is the list of candidates to be included in the Primary Municipal Election on June 7, 2016. If a candidate does not receive over 50% of the vote, the two candidates with the most votes will have a runoff in the General Election on November 1, 2016.

All schools operated by KHSD will serve “grab and go” meals between the hours of 11:00 am to 1:00 pm Monday through Friday. Students can receive meals from any elementary of high school, regardless of the district. Students can either receive meals at the drive-through or come to the pick-up area at the school bus drop off zone to receive lunch and breakfast for the following day. If driving, we will ask that parents and students remain in their vehicles while Nutrition Services distribute meals to each child in the car. Students need to be present to receive their meals. KHSD students who have special meal accommodations on file will need to communicate with the Nutrition Services office staff to confirm if they will pick up their meals daily. Parents should contact Nutrition Services at (661) 827-3190 for these services. Nutrition Services is working with the KHSD Transportation Department and the Kern County Superintendent of Schools Transportation Department to distribute meals directly to our most vulnerable student population. We anticipate daily transporting meals to the homes of our students with disabilities, who typically have door-to-door transportation services.
