Anthony,
Thank you for reaching out to me. I hope you and your family are feeling better! As you know
I voted against extending the Valley Vista contract. I would have liked to see the city go out to
bid to get the best rates and service for the residents of Cypress. If you would like to discuss
this issue more please feel free to reach out to me anytime at 909-996-0619. I want you to
know that I am doing my best to research issues thoroughly and be a good steward of public
funds. Have a great week! Take care!
Sincerely,
Frances

Morning City Council,
In light of the Los Al contract, is the council reconsidering the trash
contract? No one I know likes it but getting 51% of the households to
send in a protest letter seems like an exceptionally high bar.
If this should go into affect. Our neighbors in Los Al will be paying
nearly 50% less for what appears to be a higher level of service.
If we could secure a similar contract, this translates to several
millions of dollars of savings for our community each year and over
15 years 10s of millions. If our city manager and city council can’t
articulate a clear rationale for entering a more expensive and lengthy
contract it would be an embarrassment
Please review the contracts and articulate to the community why we
move forward or renegotiate the contract. For the community and for
your own integrity.
Thanks,
~Anthony
