However small our City may be, it is imperative that we take actions immediately to reduce our global footprint. The effects of climate change can be felt right at home by the longer heat waves, higher temperatures, and more frequent extreme heat days. The Covid-19 pandemic has taught us that environmental protections and actions cannot be delayed any longer. It is a privilege to lead a community that is not only overwhelmingly supportive of a sustainable lifestyle, but is not afraid to step up, take action, and truly make a difference. Our City’s youth have taken a leading role inciting change and innovation in the City and it is their calls to action that keep us motivated to establish policies and pathways to a carbon-neutral future. The City of South Pasadena has a history of pushing the envelope and leading the way in sustainability. This is exemplified by the City’s plastic bag ban that was established two years ahead of the state, our expanded polystyrene ban that helps avoid long-term environmental damage, and being the first City in the nation to be an American Green Zone Alliance (AGZA) Green Zone City preventing the creation of 41 metric tons (MT) of carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e) per year. In 2019, we continued our leadership efforts by joining the Clean Power Alliance with 100% clean power as the default rate for the residential and municipal sectors. In addition, City Council adopted the South Pasadena Green Action Plan, first of its kind, with implementable actions toward a plastic free, water conscious, high organics diverting, and heat island mitigating City. We do not plan on stopping to advance our environmental stewardship. South Pasadena is doing it again with its first Climate Action Plan. With more than 90 actions (or Moves), this Climate Action Plan outlines a pathway to reduce the City’s greenhouse gas emissions to ultimately reach our goal of carbon neutrality by 2045. With any good plan, we will be revisiting these actions every few years to make sure that the pathway is still relevant and ambitious and that we are on schedule toward goal attainment. An incredible team of city staff, community leaders, residents, businesses, city youth, and city commissioners came together to create this plan through a transparent and collaborative process. This is our community’s Climate Action Plan. With this plan, we strive to create a resilient, sustainable, and proactive community of which anyone would be proud. 2 Introduction……………7 The Playing Field…….23 GHG Emissions Inventory, Forecast, and Targets Game Plan……………31 Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Plays and Moves Adaptation…..……….65 Keeping Score……….69 Implementation and the Next Steps Instant Replays: Appendix A – Regulatory Summary Appendix B – Cal-Adapt Appendix C – Inventory, Forecast, and Targets Appendix D – Substantial Evidence Appendix E – Funding Strategy Appendix F – CEQA Document 3 Glossary Term Definition Adjustment or preparation of natural or human systems to a new or changing environment Adaptation which moderates harm or exploits beneficial opportunities.

Cultivation, environment, and faithful caring all have an influence on the final result. Throughout history burgeoning artists have instinctively, and certainly out of financial consideration, opted to live in close communities with fellow artists. In such settings, artists create their own subcultures as they spend their days among like-minded friends who speak their language—a form of communication that is based on their specific brand of artistic discipline and philosophy. Fellowship among artists becomes an essential source of sustaining encouragement in this lifestyle which can be sporadic in work and income. At times, an artist may travail obliviously over many days and weeks with only John Bond Francisco (1863–1931) occasional breaks for quick meals and Out of the Dust, c. 1918 minimal sleep.

    CALIFORNIA ART CLUB NEWSLETTER Documenting California’s Traditional Arts Heritage Since 1909 How the San Gabriel Valley Inspired California Impressionism and Lured Artists from across the Nation Part III of III by Elaine Adams hen William Wolfskill (1798–1866) launched California’s citrus industry in 1849 from his Los Angeles ranch by selling lemons for a dollar each to gold miners in need of WVitamin C, it became evident that fortunes could grow on trees. Twenty-four years later in 1873, inspired by Wolfskill’s success and reports of Southern California’s Mediterranean climate, Midwesterners began colonizing the San Gabriel Valley with the intention of starting new lives as citrus growers. These early settlers met the challenges of building ranches, forming a community, learning how to work with alluvial soil, and developing local markets to sell their produce. Soon, the nation demanded citrus throughout the year. In order to satisfy a larger market, there was a need for rapid transportation to get the produce across the country, hence the importance of trains; and there was a need for competitive packaging, hence the importance of artists. Within a few years, trains arrived in Southern California—and with them came the artists. Railroads, Hotels, and an Economic Boom Come to Pasadena Although the First Transcontinental Railroad connected the east to the west in 1869 at Sacramento, it took another eight years until a continuous railroad line reached Los Angeles. (There was a small railroad built in 1869 by Phineas Banning that connected San Pedro Harbor with Los Angeles.) After tunneling through the Tehachapi Mountains, the Southern Pacific Railway was able to run its first train to Los Angeles on September 5, 1876, and thus, linked Southern California to the East Coast.

  • South Pasadena Middle School Old Gym
    SOUTH PASADENA MIDDLE SCHOOL OLD GYM HISTORIC RESOURCE EVALUATION [DRAFT] 1500 FAIR OAKS AVENUE SOUTH PASADENA, CA 91030 PREPARED FOR SOUTH PASADENA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT INTRODUCTION This Historic Evaluation has been prepared at the request of the South Pasadena Unified School District for the building commonly referred to as the “Old Gym” at the South Pasadena Middle School campus at 1500 Fair Oaks Avenue in South Pasadena. The building was constructed in 1928. Figure 1: Block map with the Old Gym shown in with red outline Source: Los Angeles County Assessor SUMMARY OF DETERMINATION The Old Gym at South Pasadena Middle School has been previously evaluated for the National Register of Historic Places (National Register) and the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register) as part of an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) exploring the impacts of the 2005 South Pasadena Middle School campus expansion. That evaluation determined that the Old Gym was not eligible for the National Register or the California Register. However, that evaluation did find that the Old Gym is eligible to be listed as a City of South Pasadena Landmark because it reflects the heritage of the community, is an example of Romanesque Revival architecture, is associated with the locally prominent firm Marsh, Smith & Powell, and exhibits fine architectural details. This assessment concurs with the findings of the 2005 evaluation. The Old Gym is therefore considered a historic resource. South Pasadena Middle School Old Gym Historic Evaluation 2 April 2017 METHODOLOGY This report follows a standard outline for Historic Resource Evaluation Reports, and provides a building description, historic context statement, and examination of the current historic status for the Old Gym.

The City is committed to housing affordability, as evidenced by its progress toward meeting the 5th cycle RHNA goals, and by the broad range of housing policies and programs that are under consideration for the 6th cycle Housing Element and updates to its General Plan and zoning ordinances. The City is comprised of an economically and racially diverse community with 53% of its residents as renters and a significant number of long-standing and multigenerational families. With limited resources to serve its residents, including limited sewer and water capacity; and given the unique geographic area and predominance of historic resources (38% of the city) which limit the area suitable for development, the addition of 2,062 housing units over the next decade is arguably infeasible, and, at best, would put unprecedented strain on the City’s capacity to thrive, including on its otherwise successful public school system. Because of these local factors, as further described below and in the attached RHNA Appeal Memorandum, and the City’s efforts over the past several years to creatively address the housing crisis in California, the City respectfully requests that the Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) reduce the City’s RHNA allocation by 846 housing units for a maximum of 1,216 units.
