Council Doings.. • by JackHarloe

The city council met in regular 4:00 p.m. session Tuesday, November 7, 1995 and again, briefly, at7:30p.m. to announce continuance to Nov. 21 o f a final public hearing for the formation of an assessment district to finance improvements to the UNOCAL development in the East Coyote Hills. A letter from an attorney raised a question o f an alleged conflict of interest involving three council members. The council also took public comment.

HUME AT HIS CHILLING BEST Snow Hume received 3 minutes to address the council. Referring to “Gov’t Code 36502 Hume fast forwarded through sections of it allegedly requiring “he or she” to immediately vacate their [council seat] if during their term of office the official moves their place of residence outside of the city limits. If the official votes while living outside the city limits, Hume stated that the official would lack the “lawful power” to vote on any matters before the council. Hume’s rapid, nearly unintelligible reading of the statement prompted Councilmember Flory to ask him begin to speak English. Hume: “I’m sorry I’m still within my three minutes.” Flory: .. I don’t understand what you are saying” Hume: “You are interrupting my three minutes Ms Flory, I’m sorry.

Page 20 FULLERTON OBSERVER NEWS HOLIDAY, 1995 Two Fullerton Young Men Helping a Young Earn Eagle Scout Awards Mother & Children at New Vista by Jamie Gomez She was very much a solitary figure with no relatives to support her and her two children. The father of the babies had abandoned them and now she again was at a shelter with her new infant. We heard of her through the homeless assistance channels in the county who knew she was homeless after a temporary' stay in a home for single mothers. Some volunteers from that home had brought her to us and we decided to take this shy, introverted teenager who acted even younger than her nineteen years. Without a high school education or even any work history whatsoever, the problem of how to proceed for her future was one which presented significant challenges to our staff. The fact that she was so withdrawn and reluctant to speak made it even more of a challenge for us at New Vista. Our staff made a great effort and got results. Job developer, Carolyn Champagne, directed her into the Teen Parenting program at the First Baptist Church with the goal of helping her finish high school and prepare for a vocation of her choice. Our psychological consultant, Marta Lopez, really helped our young mother to open up and actually speak what was on her mind, and to feel comfortable with our staff and what we were attempting to do for her. Christopher Lawler (above), 17, of 700 Our teenager began to make progress in every area of her life including parenting Rancho Circle, Fullerton and John Niccolai skills which are a high priority for our New Vista residents.
