Dean Warshawsky council liaison not present
2. Pledge of allegiance
3. July minutes were not available for review because of a printer problem.
4. It was proposed that we hold an annual, semiannual or quarterly meeting that
includes the associates.
5. The workshop at 3:00 PM and meeting at 7:00 PM today were successful so it is
planned to continue the practice on the 2nd Wednesday of each month.
6. Steve Garcia has scheduled a drill for the town staff on September 13, a
Tuesday, at 2:00 PM. We are invited to participate. Dru is working with Steve on
the plans.
7. Ray Egan has finished the re-specification of the EOC 60’ monopole antenna
tower. A discussion followed on how to move toward town council approval. Action
Item: We discussed the need to get Dean Warshawsky involved in championing the
town’s need for the emergency set-up that we have put in place over the past few
years and on the tower at council, planning commission, and community meetings.
David Gilmour volunteered to participate with a small subcommittee to talk with
Dean. Dean was not in attendance at this meeting. It was suggested that we might
be able to have the County Bay Area Director of Emergency Services,who has
attended a Los Altos Hills drill, call Dean and talk about the importance of the
integrated emergency communications plan.
8. It was suggested that we talk with the water company about the potential use of
the telephone cable between the water tank and their office, which may be not
used when they move. Dru suggested that we talk with Patrick about it in the
future. Several ideas of how this might be useful were proposed.
5. Meeting Adjourned at 8:30PM
Respectfully submitted,
Ed Jones, assistant
LAH ECC Secretary
