OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER July 16, 2021 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council

SUBJECT: General Information

Notable Items

 This week Bakersfield Fire Department deployed firefighters to respond to the River Fire in Mariposa County (top right). One of 212 engines assigned to the River Fire, Bakersfield Fire’s OES 412 (bottom right) was deployed on July 11 and is tasked with protecting homes in the area. As of July 14, the fire had burned 9,500 acres and was 28% contained. Firefighters continue to aggressively attack the fire even as dangerous heat persists. Low humidity, tree torching, wind- driven runs and frequent spot fires continue to challenge firefighters involved in containing the River Fire. Bakersfield firefighters can be expected to be committed to this incident for as many as two weeks.

 Crews from the Recreation & Parks Department are completing Top: The River Fire in Mariposoa County; bottom: some repairs at the east lake at Bakersfield Fire’s OES 412 crew made up of (left to The Park at River Walk this week, right) Capt. Scott Drake, Engineer Lance Osborne, and requiring them to lower the water Firefighters Sean Rogers and Jorge Godinez. General Information July 16, 2021 Page 2

level there. The lake will be returned to its normal level once the repairs are completed, using canal water that was released further downstream and rediverted back, resulting in no net loss of water. It’s expected to take two weeks before repairs are completed.

 The City continues to grow. Development Services reports that we are currently out- pacing last year’s single-family home building permits issued to-date, and in June, the City issued 110 such permits. Compared to the same point in 2020, there have been 32 more permits issued so far in 2021: 614 through June (year-to-date) compared to 582 last year. Despite the pandemic, single-family home building didn’t slow down, with more new single-family home permits issued last year (1,450) than in any of the previous five years.

 The City invites the public to an in-person Open House on July 22nd at MLK Community Center to learn more about the Transformative Climate Communities (TCC) program which funds development and infrastructure programs to accomplish environmental, health, and economic benefits in the most disadvantaged communities.

 The City’s Solid Waste Division hosted two pop-up large trash item drop-off events on Saturday, July 10 at Planz Park and Riverlakes Ranch Community Center. Between the two locations, 183 vehicles came through and the City collected almost 25,000 pounds of trash items:

• The Planz Park location received almost 16,000 pounds of trash, another 660 pounds of recycling materials, and 12 mattresses; • The Riverlakes Ranch Community Center location received 13,120 pounds of trash, 760 pounds of recycling and 17 mattresses.

These events funded by the Public Safety & Vital Services (PSVS) Measure as part of Bakersfield’s Clean City Initiative.
