    Cities and Joint Powers Committee Mission Statement

    CITIES AND JOINT POWERS COMMITTEE MISSION STATEMENT The Cities and Joint Powers Committee of the 2014-2015 Grand Jury is responsible for reviewing and overseeing the eleven incorporated cities and the joint powers agreements within the County of Kern pursuant to California Penal Code §925a. The Committee investigates and reports on the records, accounts, officers, departments and functions of the eleven cities and files final reports with possible recommendations. In addition, the Committee is also responsible for investigating and responding to complaints from private county residents. Scott Shaw, Chairman Loretta Avery Sandra Essary 51 CITIES AND JOINT POWERS COMMITTEE SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES The Cities and Joint Powers Committee has written and published the following reports: California Living Museum City of Arvin City of Bakersfield Parks & Recreation McMurtrey Aquatic Center City of California City City of Ridgecrest City of Shafter City of Taft City of Wasco The Cities and Joint Powers Committee handled 2 complaints. The members of the Committee were also involved in numerous other committees and projects during the year. The total of investigative miles traveled by the Committee 715 miles. 52 CALIFORNIA LIVING MUSEUM CALM PLANS EXCITING FUTURE PREFACE: The California Living Museum (CALM) is one of California’s zoos that features flora, fauna, and fossils native to California and, more specifically, to Kern County. CALM exists to teach respect for all living things through education, recreation, conservation, and research. Setting it apart from many zoos is the fact that the animals permanently featured at CALM are ones that cannot be released back into the wild. In addition to being unreleasable, some of the animals at CALM are endangered, which provides the public a chance to learn about animals that they would not otherwise see.

    NTI 2018-2019: Day 1 Standards: RI 10.1; RI 10.3; RI 10.5;W 10.1 SpongeBob's incredible journey to global stardom By Meagan Flynn, Washington Post 12/04/2018 Image 1. (From left) Sandy Cheeks, SpongeBob SquarePants, Squidward, Mr. Krabs and Patrick Starfish in Nickelodeon’s "SpongeBob SquarePants" cartoon show. Photo by: Nickelodeon The most beloved cartoon sponge of a generation spent most of his life in a pineapple under the sea. But he was born in a marine biology institute in Dana Point, California, in 1989. He was just Bob the Sponge then, an actual sea sponge with cool black shades and a shimmering smile. Bob the Sponge had no arms or legs. In his early days, he was only a talking blob, floating in the top corner of a comic book. He narrated the shenanigans of an intertidal pool. This is an ocean habitat home to millions of sea creatures. "You are about to embark on a journey into one of the most incredible ecosystems on this planet, the Intertidal Zone!" Bob says in the comic's opening frame. It was a world created by Stephen Hillenburg. He was an imaginative marine biologist equipped with a fresh college degree in marine resources and a love for film and illustration. He made the comic book while working as an instructor and staff artist at the Orange County Marine Institute in Dana Point. He wanted to teach kids about the diversity of the intertidal pools in an entertaining way. For a time, Hillenburg's comic book creation existed only inside a pamphlet for kids.
