    Review of Child Safeguarding Practice – Sisters of Nazareth Review of Child Safeguarding Practice in the Sisters of Nazareth, Irish Region undertaken by The National Board for Safeguarding Children in the Catholic Church in Ireland (NBSCCCI) Date: August 2016 Page 1 of 18 Review of Child Safeguarding Practice – Sisters of Nazareth CONTENTS Pages Background 3 Introduction 5 Role Profile 7 Profile of Members 7 Policy and Procedures Document 7 Structures 8 Management of Allegations 9 Conclusion 15 Terms of Reference 16 Page 2 of 18 Review of Child Safeguarding Practice – Sisters of Nazareth Background The National Board for Safeguarding Children in the Catholic Church in Ireland (NBSCCCI) was asked by the Sponsoring Bodies, namely the Irish Episcopal Conference, the Conference of Religious of Ireland and the Irish Missionary Union, to undertake a comprehensive review of child safeguarding practice within and across all the Church authorities on the island of Ireland. The NBSCCCI is aware that some religious congregations have ministries that involve direct contact with children while others do not. In religious congregations that have direct involvement with children, reviews of child safeguarding have been undertaken by measuring their practice compliance against all seven Church Standards. Where a religious congregation no longer has, or never had ministry involving children, and has not received any allegation of sexual abuse the NBSCCCI reviews are conducted using a shorter procedure. The size, age and activity profiles of religious congregations can vary significantly, and the NBSCCCI accepts that it is rational that the form of review be tailored to the profile of each Church Authority, where the ministry with children is limited or non-existent.

  • Agenda Item – Staff Report
    AGENDA ITEM – STAFF REPORT TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND COMMISSIONERS FROM: JEFFREY O’NEAL, AICP, CITY PLANNER SUBJECT: APPLICATION NO. 20-23, THE VALLEY AGRICULTURAL HOLDINGS, LLC COMMERCIAL CANNABIS PROJECT DATE: DECEMBER 29, 2020 ISSUE In the matter of Application No. 20-23, the Valley Agricultural Holdings LLC project, shall the Planning Commission: 1. Make a determination pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act, make a determination of General Plan consistency for the disposal of real property, and approve a conditional use permit; and 2. Make recommendations to the City Council regarding a general plan amendment, rezone, and development agreement? BACKGROUND The State of California’s Medical and Adult Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (MAUCRSA) is the primary statute that regulates personal, medicinal, and commercial cannabis activity in the state. In addition to MAUCRSA, Chapters 8.37 (Commercial Cannabis Businesses) and 17.99 (Commercial Cannabis Overly District) of the Mendota Municipal Code (MMC) provide regulations applicable to non-personal cannabis activities at the local level. Pursuant to these local regulations, an applicant wishing to undertake commercial cannabis activities must meet certain location criteria, receive approval of a conditional use permit, and enter into a development agreement with the City. Dating to early 2019, the City has been in discussions with various entities regarding development of a commercial cannabis facility on a portion of a City-owned parcel (APN 013-030-68ST) adjacent to the City’s wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). In October 2019, the City entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Valley Agricultural Holdings, LLC. On October 13, 2020 the Planning Department received an application from Valley Agricultural Holdings, LLC requesting a variety of entitlements and actions to facilitate the construction and operation of a commercial cannabis facility as discussed.

  • Fresno-Commission-Fo
    “If you are working on a problem you can solve in your lifetime, you’re thinking too small.” Wes Jackson I have been blessed to spend time with some of our nation’s most prominent civil rights leaders— truly extraordinary people. When I listen to them tell their stories about how hard they fought to combat the issues of their day, how long it took them, and the fact that they never stopped fighting, it grounds me. Those extraordinary people worked at what they knew they would never finish in their lifetimes. I have come to understand that the historical arc of this country always bends toward progress. It doesn’t come without a fight, and it doesn’t come in a single lifetime. It is the job of each generation of leaders to run the race with truth, honor, and integrity, then hand the baton to the next generation to continue the fight. That is what our foremothers and forefathers did. It is what we must do, for we are at that moment in history yet again. We have been passed the baton, and our job is to stretch this work as far as we can and run as hard as we can, to then hand it off to the next generation because we can see their outstretched hands. This project has been deeply emotional for me. It brought me back to my youthful days in Los Angeles when I would be constantly harassed, handcuffed, searched at gunpoint - all illegal, but I don’t know that then. I can still feel the terror I felt every time I saw a police cruiser.
