Don't Forget Creek Week!

Hi all,

It's that beautiful time of year again to enjoy the outdoors, and celebrate our local natural spaces and waterways. Creek Week is coming up and we could really use your help on Saturday, April 18th to do a little Jan Park Clean-Up for Creek Week activities. We'll meet in the park at 8:00 a.m. and finish by 11 a.m. so that everyone has a chance to get over to Carmichael Park for the free hot dogs, T-shirts, and fun activities for the kids to thank you for helping out. I know it's a busy time of year, so we understand if you have other obligations, but any help, even a 1/2 hour, would be wonderful.

Please bring gardening/work gloves, weeding tools, trash bags, and make sure you have sun protection with you (hat and/or sunscreen). We are so looking forward to sprucing up the park, and showing our community and Carmichael Recreation and Park District how much we care about our beautiful outdoor space! Please give me call or email with any questions, and invite your neighbors and friends!!

Check out the Creek Week website for a list of tons of activities all week long for the whole family!

Thanks so much and have a wonderful warm weekend :)

Right to Rest SB 608 - What's your opinion?

There is new legislation that has recently been introduced to the CA State Senate that will drastically effect the way law enforcement can handle homeless individuals and loitering in public places. Please take the time to look at this, speak to your neighbors and friends, think about how this may alter what, if anything, our law enforcement representatives can do about areas like Jan Park. I strongly encourage everyone to think about this bill and act, whatever side of the conversation you fall on. Contact our local state representative, Jim Nielsen and let him know your thoughts as citizens within his district. You can find his website at http://nielsen.cssrc.us/ his Capitol office information is:

Capitol Office

State Capitol, Room 4062
Sacramento, CA 95814
Phone: (916) 651-4004
Fax: (916) 651-4904

If this legislation sounds familiar, it's because we saw this introduced in the House as AB-5 a few years ago. http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billHistoryClient.xhtml

Read up on this new proposed legislation, and share your thoughts with your representatives, the Carmichael Recreation and Park District, the local sheriff's department at the community meeting coming up, and with your neighborhood watch groups.Government is for the governed!

Graffiti at Jan Park

Morning friends,

In the last week there has been a large amount of spray paint graffiti showing up at Jan Park that is so disconcerting to all of us who have spent so much time and effort working hard to make this park happen, and keep it clean and safe. The Carmichael Recreation and Park District have been amazing at helping us clean this up, but we'd really like to see if we can get the neighborhood out to show these vandals that we're here, we're watching, and we care. So please take a chance to drive by the park on your way to and from work, report suspicious activity of any sort, and perhaps walk the park with your dogs or kids when you can. We also have some street coordinators and BHNA leaders who would like to organize some evening walks just before dark through the park to help protect our lovely resource. If you are interested at all in evening walks with your neighbors, please feel free to do so with your closest neighbors, or email me and we can put together a list of people who might like to loosely organize.

Very Important to Note: Please be safe, walk in groups, do not engage people who are suspicious or are carrying out a crime, and be cautious. Our goal is to present a presence in the park, not to have vigilante behavior or for anyone to put themselves in harm's way.


Graffiti won't stand at Jan Park!

Thank you so much everyone for being part of the solution and caring about the park :)

Quick reminder:

The next Sheriff's meeting is November 18th-save the date and share with our POP officers that we need help!!

Homeless in the park

Hello neighbors,

We sincerely need your help with reporting recent use of Jan Park by homeless folks as a campground, and place to hang out. It's so important that we make sure our beautiful park is preserved for use by everyone who wants to enjoy it's natural beauty, support safety in the surrounding community, enjoy quality time, and promote lawful use of a public amenity. The current problems we are experiencing have multiple symptoms, but has led to dumping of garbage, narcotic use, alcohol abuse, and concern by many on their safe use of the park. Please report suspicious behavior of all sorts; using the water fountain for personal hygiene needs, idling and loitering of individuals who seem to be carrying large amounts of plastic bags with clothing, hanging out by individuals without children, pets, or other common reasons to be in a park environment, etc. contact the non-emergency number at 916-874-5115 for crimes not in progress and use 911 for immediate needs where you are witnessing a crime in progress ( drug deals definitely count!) I also strongly encourage you to use 311 to report violations like illegal dumping from homeless ( you can use the mobile app for added convenience), and Tip Submit.  The more we report, the more our sheriff's department will recognize our need for help. Contact Jerry Epler at Carmichael Recreation Park District to report camping, and dumping in the park as well at jeppler@carmichaelpark.com

Check in with us at Nextdoor.com and the Lincoln-Barrett Neighborhood Watch on Facebook to keep up with latest concerns, connect with your neighborhood watch street coordinator via email, and please help is be a strong, active presence in the park!!

Thank you all!!

Cold Weather - General Tips and Recommendations

Check on elderly family members, friends, or neighbors.  Elderly and those with serious medical conditions are at risk. Please be sure to check in on community members that might be vulnerable during this cold spell.

Bring your pets indoors. A dog or cat left outside in severe cold weather can die quickly from exposure. Except for exercise and walks, all dogs and cats are safer indoors during the winter. Bring your pets inside when temperatures start to dip near freezing. Make sure they have a warm draft free place indoors with a dry mat or blanket that they can lie on.

Carbon Monoxide is a “silent killer.” It is not OK to heat the inside of your home with any kind of BBQ, propane heater, or any other fuel fired equipment. Only use heaters that were installed with your home and those that are designed to be used indoors. Make sure that your natural gas furnaces and other appliances are in good, clean working order.

Freezing pipes.  Insulate outdoor pipes that lead into your home.  Seal with caulk around the pipes that lead into and out of your home. Inside your home, leave bathroom and under sink cabinets open to help warm the water.  If your pipes freeze, leave your tap on and call the plumber. You can defrost your pipes using a hair dryer on a low setting, working your way slowly from the faucet to where your pipe enters the wall. City residents who need to have their water turned off in order to make repairs to their lines may call 311 or County residents can call 916-875-RAIN or 875-7246 for more information. 

Reduce your vehicle speed. If the temperature stays below 32 degrees, there will be a high probability you will see black ice. Be extra cautious when going over bridges and/or overpasses.  Give yourself extra spacing between vehicles in front of you. The best thing you can do is reduce your vehicle speeds.

Watch for tree limbs. As temperatures dip, trees become vulnerable to limbs snapping. In such instances, City emergency response crews will arrive on scene and work diligently to restore the free-flow of traffic or abate hazardous situations.  For service, Sacramento City residents may call 311 and County residents can call 916-875-5171.

Neighborhood Alert:

Just an FYI, last week on garbage/recycling day, one of the residents on Stoney Way had a large number of recyclables stolen from the bed of her pickup.  She estimated she had about $100 worth of cans in bags ready to take to the recycling center.  Someone took them either the night before or morning of garbage day.  No description of suspect(s).

Wildlife Alert:

The female deer we have seen throughout the summer in our area is still here, and was sighted on Lincoln Avenue a few nights ago. Please be extremely careful when driving at night!

Preventive Techniques

• The two most important ways to avoid a deer-vehicle collision are: slow down and SLOW DOWN. If you are driving through an area known for high deer populations, slow down and observe the speed limit. The more conservative you are with your speed, the more time you will have to brake if an animal darts into your path.
• Always wear a seatbelt. The most severe injuries in deer-vehicle collisions usually result from failure to use a seatbelt.
• Watch for the shine of eyes along the roadside and immediately begin to slow.
• Use your high beams whenever the road is free of oncoming traffic. This will increase your visibility and give you more time to react.
• Deer can become mesmerized by steady, bright lights so if you see one frozen on the road, slow down and flash your lights. Some experts recommend one long blast of the horn to scare them out of the road, as well. 
• Pay close attention to caution signs indicating deer or other large animals. These signs are specifically placed in high-traffic areas where road crossings are frequent. 
• If you're on a multi-lane road, drive in the center lane to give as much space to grazing deer as possible.

Encountering a Deer

• Never swerve to avoid a deer in the road. Swerving can confuse the deer on where to run. Swerving can also cause a head-on collision with oncoming vehicles, take you off the roadway into a tree or a ditch, and greatly increase the chances of serious injuries.
• Deer are unpredictable creatures, and one that is calmly standing by the side of the road may suddenly leap into the roadway without warning. Slowing down when you spot a deer is the best way to avoid a collision. However, if one does move into your path, maintain control and do your best to brake and give the deer time to get out of your way.
• Don't rely on hood whistles or other devices designed to scare off deer. These have not been proven to work.
• If you do collide with a deer (or large animal), call emergency services if injuries are involved, or the local police if no one is injured, but damage has been caused to your property or someone else's. Never touch an animal that is in the roadway. Report the incident to your insurance company as soon as possible.

Unlike that fictional driver from the car commercial, knowing what to do when you encounter a large animal on or near the roadway can be a life-saver. Keeping calm and driving smart improve your chances of avoiding a collision and staying safe on the road. Safe travels!

Followup on Homeless Bill of Rights: on hold till Jan 2014

The Homeless Bill of Rights we spoke about in a Lincoln-Barrett Neighborhood and Park Watch recent blog post has passed the Assembly's Judiciary Committee, but has been put on hold till next year by the Appropriations Committee.

 This bill would allow for:

"The bill would bar discriminating against homeless people while they seek or maintain tax-funded benefits. It would also assert a right to be in public places, safeguard personal property, guarantee use of public facilities, protect confidentiality of medical records and provide legal representation in low-level criminal proceedings, not just those that rise to the level of misdemeanors."

For more information  See : http://sfpublicpress.org/news/2013-05/state-homeless-bill-of-rights-put-on-hold-until-next-year#sthash.8zIXcMnQ.dpuf

There was also a recent article in the Sac Bee blog: http://blogs.sacbee.com/capitolalertlatest/2013/05/ammianos-homeless-rights-bill-fails-in-assembly-committee.html

If you have opinions about this bill coming back up next year, please consider contacting our local state representatives, Ken Cooley in the Assembly and Jim Nielsen in the Senate.

Exhausted With "Monitoring" the Park/ Important Meeting Tomorrow

At 1:50 a.m. this morning, my husband and I were roughly awoken to loud knocking on our door. A teenage girl was asking what street we were on and the address because her friend was having a seizure in the park. Tonight, I chased off at least a dozen teenagers out of the park around 8:30 p.m., in three different cars-a white truck with two caucasian males in white baseball hats worn high on the head, license plate starting with "A", a dark colored plain sedan (accord/camry type), and a reddish SUV.

I'm frankly getting a little tired of controlling the traffic in the park as if it's my second job. I will be contacting POP Officer Dennis Peyton tomorrow as well as the park district, but I would appreciate any suggestions, offerings of good will, etc.

In other news, there is a very important meeting coming up tomorrow regarding how the County is handling some of the recent State changes to how convicted criminals are managed by the legal system, in answer to our extremely overcrowded State penitentiary system. Please attend if you possibly can, and feel free to share your notes and insights here.

Realignment of State Prisoners to County Jails.

Public Safety Forum to be Held on April 23

State and local leaders to discuss local impact of public safety law

Residents of Sacramento County are invited to attend a public safety forum on Tuesday, April 23 at the Carmichael Clubhouse from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Officials in attendance will discuss the state’s public safety realignment law and its impact to the community.

Who:     Sheriff Scott Jones, State Senator Jim Nielsen, District Attorney Jan Scully, Supervisors Susan Peters

              and Roberta MacGlashan

When:   Tuesday, April 23 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

Where:  Carmichael Clubhouse, 5750 Grant Avenue

Enacted into law in October of 2011, the Governor’s realignment law sends certain convicted felons to county jails instead of state prisons. Local jurisdictions are struggling to meet the increasing demands of housing convicted felons.

State Senator Jim Nielsen is expected to discuss legislative proposals that will close some of the loopholes of realignment (Assembly Bill 109); while Sheriff Jones and local officials will talk about the challenges facing Sacramento County in its implementation.

Proposed Homeless Bill of Rights AB 5:
Tom Ammiano D-San Francisco has proposed AB 5 which would enact the Homeless Person’s Bill of Rights and Fairness Act, which places housing status on equal footing with gender, religion and color when it comes to prohibited discrimination.
The bill helps protect homeless people from discrimination in employment, voting, and when seeking housing or public services. The bill would protect homeless people’s rights to exist in public space and to engage in life-sustaining activities like sleeping, eating, sharing food, and access to safe bathrooms and clean water, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Bill would also grant the homeless the right to sleep in legally parked cars, to possess personal property on public lands, and to receive public assistance funds and legal counsel when cited, even for infractions. The bill would also ban officials from forcing homeless people into shelters or social service programs against their will.
Ammiano s that homelessness causes Californians to be denied access to housing, employment and clean restrooms, Ammiano also asserts that homeless are unfairly targeted by Law Enforcement.
Should the bill pass; the local ordinance against vagrancy, and the ordinances that close water ways and parks at night, public buildings and transit stations, could be voided.
“In Los Angeles County, The Department of Public Social Services indicates that any impact for the demand of additional public social services under AB 5 is unknown at this time. According to DPSS, in Los Angeles County, the number of homeless CalWORKs families has risen during the last six years to a historic high of 12,861 families. In addition, over 50% of individuals on General Relief are homeless”.
“AB 5 is opposed by Sacramento County and the editorial boards of the: Los Angeles Times, Sacramento Bee, San Francisco Chronicle and the Fresno Bee”.
AB 5 has been referred to the Assembly Judiciary Committee. A hearing date has not been scheduled.
