Chamber. Those who are interested in speaking on the item, may do so when we get to it.
However, part of the purpose of continuance is to address some of the concerns that have
been submitted in writing so we would appreciate it if you would defer your comments until
you have seen the revised item. Again, you are allowed to speak tonight but we encourage
you to wait until the next meeting.

City Manager Jeffrey C. Parker reiterated the City Attorney's comments regarding
the continuation of the item to August 11, 2018 at 8:00 am. Reminded the public
that this item has been on the City Council's agenda for the last five meetings.
The program relates to two specific plan areas where the city is providing the
opportunity for more residential units for the development community if they so
desire, they don't have to. If they want to look for residential units in an area that
is currently commercially zoned, under our current code, you cannot build a
residential unit in these areas. The idea was to bring more residential units to
enhance the commercial area. None of the money collected from this program
will be used to address homeless issues. This program is to create affordable
units in the community whether it's a cash payment or as indicated in the draft
ordinance, affordable units are required to be built in place. Encouraged the public
to call City Hall if they have a specific question regarding the ordinance. Staff
would be happy to review your questions and explain what the city is doing to
meet the affordable unit requirements under state law
Recommendation — City Attorney David E. Kendig: Staff's recommendation is
to adjourn to Regular Meeting on August 11, 2018 at 8:00 am in the Council

ADJOURNED IN MEMORY
OF
CARMELLA LOUISE VANN
BY COUNCIL MEMBER LETITIA CLARK
Carmella Louise Vann was named after her two great grandmothers Carmen Mestaz and
Ella Christensen. Carmella was born on June 11, 1975, at the Long Beach Naval Hospital
to mother Deborah Louise Vann and father Presley Louis Vann. Her dad was stationed at
the United States Marine Corps (USMC) EI Toro Air Base. Through her father's travels,
Carmella's family came into contact with people from diverse cultures, languages and
dialects. Carmella at an early age, demonstrated a keen ability read, understand, and speak
City Council July 17, 2018
Meeting Minutes Page 17 of 18
several different languages. As a kid, she could converse in Samoan, Japanese, Spanish,
Dutch, and German comfortably with friends of her father. Carmella's parents' service in the
Marine Corps ended in 1980 and made Tustin their home.
In time, Carmella attended Columbus Tustin Middle school where she enrolled in her first
formal language class of Spanish. By the time, Carmella entered Tustin High School she
was totally fluent in Spanish and it payed off well for her with not only obtaining her first job,
with the Tustin Recreation Department, but it was a job that ended up impacted so many
young Spanish children's lives. As a Parks and Recreation employee, Carmella was
assigned to Frontier Park, due to her organization, her imagination, her truly caring heart,
and her command of the Spanish language, Carmella turned the park into a bustling,
exciting place where the kids were excited to come to every day.
Her command of the Spanish language was also very evident during one of her Miss Tustin
performances where she presented an extremely heart-warming dedication to her "Na -Na"
Olga in Spanish. Carmella was the first African American Miss Tustin in 1992 and she one
of the youngest Miss Tustins at the age of 16. From the Miss Tustin Pageant, Carmella
continued on and entered and won two more Beauty Pageants. She won Miss Coastal Cities
Pageant and Miss Greater Long Beach Pageant. At that time, both of the pageants were at
a level where all of the contestants were older than 17, but because of Carmella's
knowledge, confidence, poise and her unique ability to blend in her Spanish charm, it helped
her to excel in those pageants and end in victory.
Carmella went on to attend and graduate from UCI with a degree in Communications and
she had a very successful career as a Journalist, a Copywriter, and an Editor for several
well-known companies. Unfortunately, herjournalist career ended on July 3, 2018 when she
was killed in a tragic car accident. Her family left this quote:
George Washington Carver once said...
"How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, compassionate with
the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong, because
someday in your life you will have been all of these"
One cannot think of a better way of summing up Carmella's life than the quote above.
George Washington Carver was a great man because of the deep faith he relied upon and
he lived it and shared it with the world that surrounded him and Carmella was a great woman
because of the deep faith she relied upon and she lived it and shared it all with who were
fortunate enough to be around her.
My deep condolences with the Vann family. I went to school with Carmella's sister and it's
a great loss for our Tustin Community.
