LYNWOOD ‘N PERSPECTIVE
Surely as flowers bloom in the Spring, the City of Lynwood continues to blossom with the determined leadership of the Mayor and City Council, who are courageously working to transform the community to promote healthier lives and a happier more livable City. We all know that community engagement is at the core of how Lynwood functions, from re-energizing its city-wide Weight Loss Challenge to reviving community pride with a Lynwood Commitment Clean-up events, the momentum continues in making Lynwood a livable City. Also, with many City improvement projects marked for the year, we are on pace to have a number of projects completed by the end of this year. Adding to the quality of Lynwood lives, the City recently hosted a grand Special Needs Celebration which gifted many families with food, fun and toys. We also celebrated national Women’s History Month with “A Celebration of Lynwood Women” event at the Lucy Avalos Community Center at the Yvonne Burke - John D. Ham Park. With the involvement of the Community and devoted leadership in the interest of the residents and community, Lynwood continues to thrive with new development, street improvements, and building our community, strengthen our local economy and shape the character of our local business community. Each dollar you spend at local businesses returns money to the local economy. When you invest money in your local economy, you’re not just helping local business owners – you’re also helping yourself. You’re making our city a better place to live in, with a rich character, a thriving economy, and a tightly knit community. And the more local businesses prosper, the more new ones will open – making it even easier to continue shopping locally in the future. For more information about new projects and events in the City please go to the City website at www.lynwood.ca.us, visit City Hall to pick-up printed materials or call City Hall at (310) 603-0220.
Seguramente a medida que las flores florecen en la primavera, la Ciudad de Lynwood continúa floreciendo con el liderazgo decidido del Alcalde y el Concejo Municipal, quienes están trabajando con valentía para transformar la comunidad para promover vidas más saludables y una Ciudad más feliz y más habitable. Todos sabemos que la participación de la comunidad está en el centro de cómo funciona Lynwood, desde reenergizar su Desafío de pérdida de peso en toda la ciudad hasta revitalizar el orgullo de la comunidad con los eventos de Limpieza de Compromisos de Lynwood, el impulso continúa para hacer de Lynwood una ciudad habitable. Además, con muchos proyectos de mejora para la ciudad marcados para el año, estamos en camino de tener varios proyectos terminados para fines de este año. Además de la calidad de vida de Lynwood, la ciudad recientemente organizó una gran Celebración de Necesidades Especiales que le dio a muchas familias comida, diversión y juguetes. También celebramos el mes nacional de la historia de la mujer con el evento “Una celebración de las mujeres de Lynwood” en el Centro comunitario Lucy Avalos en el parque Yvonne Burke - John D. Ham. Con la participación de la Comunidad y el liderazgo devoto en interés de los residentes y la comunidad, Lynwood continúa prosperando con nuevos desarrollos, mejoras en las calles y la construcción de nuestra comunidad, fortalece nuestra economía local y moldea el carácter de nuestra comunidad empresarial local. Cada dólar que gasta en negocios locales devuelve dinero a la economía local. Cuando invierte dinero en su economía local, no solo está ayudando a los dueños de negocios locales, sino que también se está ayudando a sí mismo. Estás haciendo de nuestra ciudad un lugar mejor para vivir, con un carácter rico, una economía próspera y una comunidad muy unida. Y mientras más prosperen los negocios locales, más nuevos se abrirán, lo que hará que sea aún más fácil seguir comprando localmente en el futuro.

WHAT’S GOING ON?
Lynwood City Manager Jose Ometeotl has moved to fill the senior leadership voids in the city’s Public Works Department. William “Bill” Stracker will serve as the Interim Public Works Director, temporarily replacing Sal Mendez who resigned this month. Stracker has previously worked with the City as a consultant, and according to the City Manager “knows the team and can hit the ground running”. Marlene Miyoshi will serve as the Public Works Operations Manager–a position that is currently vacant. She has prior consultant experience with Lynwood and currently provides services to the City of Bell. Steve Wright will work on special projects assigned by Stracker and the City Manager. Wright previously served as the City Engineer in Pasadena. These appointments will provide flexibility, continuity of service and buttress the division as the search for permanent placements begins. The Department of Public Works is responsible for repairs and maintenance of the City’s water system, sewer system, tree maintenance, streets, storm drains, street lighting, traffic signals, parks, median islands, buildings and related facilities. In addition, it administers the trolley buses, oil recycling, refuse collection and recycling, and street sweeping programs.

NEW INTERIM MANAGEMENT FOR PUBLIC WORKS
The first stage of the inspections of Lynwood’s 22 motels by the city of Lynwood’s Public Safety Division has concluded. “All 22 motels have been inspected,” said JD Whitaker, Public Safety Manager for the city of Lynwood. “We will continue to work with the owners and managers going forward to make sure that the motels meet all requirements. Officers documented any code violations, and were looking into all licensing issues, inspected all fire and smoke detectors and made
sure the motels have and are keeping current required paperwork. Part of why the inspections were ordered by City Manager Jose Ometeotl was to discourage prostitution in the city. No prostitution or prostitutes were in sight during the inspections. “The goal of these inspections is to promote public safety and public health,” said the city manager. “In addition, we are making the statement that the prostitution which these motels have attracted needs to go elsewhere.”
INSPECTIONS CONTINUED

LYNWOOD NOTICE
402 LYNWOOD UNIFIED STUDENTS ACCEPTED TO COLLEGE, WIN SCHOLARSHIPS DURING CAMPUS VISITS
Lynwood High School senior Mark Iniguez knows that the high cost of college can be a barrier for students so he was determined to get a jumpstart by taking college courses and exploring scholarship opportunities. Iniguez’s hard work paid off in a big way on Feb. 1 when he was offered a $92,000 scholarship to Benedict College during the Historically Black College and Universities (HBCU) Caravan Tour.Hundreds of Lynwood Unified Students filled the gymnasiums at Lynwood and Firebaugh high schools to meet with HBCU recruiters, who presented them with on-the-spot acceptance and, for some, full-ride scholarships. “I am excited because a lot of people do not always get the opportunity to go to college,” Iniguez said. “A full-ride scholarship to
Mark Iniguez, estudiante de último año de Lynwood High School, sabe que el alto costo de la universidad puede ser una barrera para los estudiantes, por lo que estaba decidido a comenzar rápidamente al tomar cursos universitarios y explorar oportunidades de becas. El arduo trabajo de Iniguez dio sus frutos de manera considerable el 1 de febrero cuando le ofrecieron una beca de $ 92,000 para el Colegio Benedict durante el Tour de la Caravana Históricamente de Colegios y Universidades Afroamericana (HBCU). Cientos de estudiantes del Distrito Escolar Unificado de Lynwood llenaron los gimnasios de las escuelas secundarias de Lynwood y Firebaugh para reunirse con los reclutadores de HBCU, quienes les presentaron aceptación inmediata y, para algunos, becas de viaje completo.
The keeping of backyard livestock (chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, potbellied pigs, bees, and other forms of livestock) is becoming more and more popular. Although keeping such animals can be fun, educational, and often can provide sustenance, they are prohibited within the City of Lynwood and possession of such animals is unlawful. Also, chickens, roosters, and all other forms of livestock present various dangers to humans which
El mantenimiento del ganado de traspatio (pollos, patos, gansos, pavos, cerditos, abejas y otras formas de ganado) es cada vez más popular. Aunque mantener tales animales puede ser divertido, educativo y, a menudo, puede proporcionarles sustento, están prohibidos dentro de la Ciudad de Lynwood y la posesión de tales animales es ilegal. Además, los pollos, los gallos y todas las demás formas de ganado presentan diversos peligros para los seres humanos que pueden conducir a la transmisión de enfermedades.
Benedict College will help me in pursuing a career in criminal justice.” Lynwood High students received $3.2 million in scholarships and 248 acceptances, and Firebaugh/Vista High students obtained $1.9 million in scholarships with 154 acceptances. The tour was organized by the National College Resources Foundation (NCRF) and the Black College Expo. Students submitted transcripts and SAT/ACT scores to participating HCBUs, which included Tuskegee University, Charles R. Drew University of Medicine and Science, Harris-Stowe State University and Benedict. Representatives were at each high school for two hours and, in addition to on-the-spot acceptances, recruiters also waived application fees.
“Estoy emocionado porque muchas personas no siempre tienen la oportunidad de ir a la universidad”, dijo Iniguez. “Una beca de viaje completo a Benedict College me ayudará a seguir una carrera en justicia penal”. Los estudiantes de Lynwood High recibieron $ 3.2 millones en becas y 248 aceptaciones, y los estudiantes de Firebaugh / Vista High obtuvieron $ 1.9 millones en becas con 154 aceptaciones. La gira fue organizada por la Fundación Colegial Nacional de Recursos (NCRF) y el Colejio Expo Afroamericana. Los estudiantes enviaron las transcripciones y los puntajes SAT / ACT a las HCBU participantes, que incluyeron la Universidad de Tuskegee, la Universidad de Medicina y Ciencia Charles R. Drew, la Universidad Estatal de Harris-Stowe y Benedict. Los representantes estuvieron en cada escuela secundaria durante dos horas y, además de las aceptaciones en el lugar, los reclutadores también renunciaron a las tarifas de solicitud.
can possibly lead to the transmission of diseases. In accordance with the Lynwood Municipal Code, the keeping or harboring of livestock can result in municipal penalties, beginning at $200 for each prohibited animal. So as a friendly reminder, let’s leave all livestock to Old McDonald and his farm.
For more information about prohibited livestock, please contact the Public Safety Division at (310) 603 0220, Ext. 271.
De acuerdo con el Código Municipal de Lynwood, el mantenimiento o el alojamiento del ganado puede resultar en multas municipales, comenzando a $200 por cada animal prohibido. Entonces, como un recordatorio amistoso, dejemos todo el ganado a Old MacDonald y su granja.
