Connor Horton, Drew Horton, and Victoria Johnson, my
best holiday greetings from Grandma:
As we approach the holiday season, I am going to take
this opportunity to remind everyone to be good to one

running around from party to party. This is a time for all
of us to be thankful for what we have, for our families,
loved ones, and our health.
Once again, thank you for all your support and good
wishes over the past year. Be safe during the holiday

2004 has been a wonderful year for our entire community.
We have experienced unparalleled increases in propelty
values and have seen significant progress in the area of
commercial development. Our future has so much promise
with the coming ofour first public library, the new BART
Transit facility, the train station, and the water transit
project. My firstlove has been thelibrary. Thank you all
for your support of "the year ofthe library." We have
raised more than $1 million, but we have a long way to go
before reaching our goal of$4 million. We must continue
to work together to raise the necessary funding for our
library dW'ing 2005.
As I end my term as Mayor, I need to thank so many
people. To my colleagues on the City Council, thank you
for your support and trust in selecting me as Mayor. A
word ofthanks to all our staff. Without their hard work,
the City Council could not be successful. My most sincere
appreciation to the people of Hercules. Thank you for
your words of encouragement and support over the past
year as I have traveled around our City. A special thank
you is extended to my mother, Angie Stalzer and my
daughters, Julie Horton and Charlene Johnson, for all
LffiRARY SITE DEDICATION
On October 13, 2004, more than 100 people gathered
to celebrate the coming of the Hercules libl1l1y. State and
County officials, together with our own City Council and
community groups, including the Friends of the Hercules
Library, gathered to dedicate the site ofthe futw'e Hercules
library. As the Honorable Gayle Uilkema, Contra Costa
County Supervisor, noted "when you come to Hercules,
you're sure to get your money's worth." as the event also
celebrated the groundbreaking of Eden Housing's fiftytwo unit senior apartment complex. Both projects will be
under construction at the same time, though the library
project won't break ground until early next year.
The synergy being created atop Civic Drive has us all
excited. So many have worked so hard to reach the goal
ofcreating a community that offers a wide range ofchoices,
selvices and amenities, including the community's unofficial
"living room" - the Hercules Library.

BUILDING DEPARTMENT INSTITUTES NEW PROGRAM
The City of Hercules Building Department is pleased to
announce the introduction of a new program in response
to Ordinance No. 380. This ordinance, which was approved
by tbe City Council on January 14, 2003, provides for the
periodic inspection of residential rental units throughout the
City of Hercules and the inspection of all residential units
at time of resale.
The program dubbed, "Residential Health and Safety and
Ne ighborhood Preservation Inspection Program", will
address the preservation issues related to our
neighborhoods. We all are aware that Hercules is blessed
with numerous diverse neighborhoods which provide for a
superior quality oflife for its residents. The property values
within these areas are not only stable but are increasing.
One important item supporting our high property value is
the maintenance issue related to property ownership and
stewardship.
The City of Hercules has various neighborhoods that were
developed 20 to 30 years ago. The age of these
neighborhoods signifies a critical stage in the life ofurban
housing stock. It is a period represented by renovation,
modernization, and maintenance issues. It is during this
period tbat housing stock can fall rapidly into disrepair,
thereby affecting the property values and quality oflife of
all neighboring residents. This ordinance represents a
proactive approach to dealing with this issue.
This ordinance calls for the cyclic inspection of residential
rental units and the inspection of all residential units at tbe
time of resale. This inspection process must not be confused
with the type of building inspection required when specific
work is done on the home. These particular inspections
will address such items as exterior maintenance issues i.e.,
failing paint, material decay, overgrown landscaping,
inoperable vehicles, rubbish accumulation, and similar items.
It will also address health and safety issues such as
inoperable doors and windows, nonfunctioning cooking and
heating appliances, faulty sanitation facilities, damaged
electrical devices and equipment, installation of smoke
detectors, sleeping rooms within garages, faulty window
bar releases, and similar important items.
This ordinance does not require that existing buildings or
structures within the City of Hercules comply with uniform
codes currently in effect. It is only a tool by which properties
shall be required to be maintained according to the uniform
codes under which the structure was constructed. Only if
noncompliance with today's uniform codes is deemed to
be a risk to health and welfare, will a demand to comply
with current codes emanate. For instance, if an inspection
reveals the need to replace a damaged kitchen receptacle,
the City's Building Department would require that the
replacement device installed be GFCI protected as required
by today's Uniform Electrical Code. Items such as this
example have obvious health and safety benefits for both
owner and tenant and do not represent an onerous condition.
The other aspect of the ordinance requires that all housing
units be inspected upon resale. This will require a similar
inspection process. Again it is items related to health and
safety issues and neglected maintenance that will be
addressed.
With the advent ofthis program, the City of Hercules will
come into step with the majority of Bay Area communities.
I am pleased to say that our City Council has seen fit to
proceed sooner rather than later. Many of our neighboring
communities are now desperately trying to come to grips
with historical situations that are much more difficult and
expensive to eradicate.
The program will have numerous benefits, not only for the
community but also for the absentee owners and the
tenants . The inspection procedure will provide
documentation in the form of a "Certificate of Compliance".
This document will provide a basis for health, safety and
preservation issues related to a specific property. It can be

reviewed by the parties at a later date in order to clarify a
point or it can be utilized to define the responsibilities of
eacb party as they enter into a rental agreement.
Residents will be able to visit the City of Hercules web
site at www.ci .hercules.ca.us and view this ordinance. You
may also view examples of the inspection forms, fees,
registering and scheduling information. The program will
begin on January I, 2005 with 15 trial inspections. We will
follow with 30 inspections for each of the following two
months. During this period, we will evaluate the proficiency
of the project and adjust accordingly. Our intention is to
maintain a schedule of approximately 30 inspections per
month.
The cycle of inspections will be three years unless a unit
becomes vacant. A vacancy will signal a new beginning to
the process; with a vacancy, a new three year period wi II
begin after receipt ofthe "Certificate of Compliance". The
inspection cycle will begin and continue with a focus on a
specific district and then move on to the next so as to
maximize our efforts. Residences which are sold and not
utilized as rental property will only be inspected upon resale.
Absentee owners known to the City will be contacted by
mail regarding this issue. Included will be registration
materials and contact information. If an absentee owner
does not receive notification by January 1, 2005, they are
required to contact the Building Department to establish a
file . We expect 90% of all residential rental inspections to
be completed within three years, therefore, establishing a
cycle of inspection that is neither burdensome for the
property owner or the Building Department.
We in the Building Department will work diligently to assure
that the implementation of th.is program is as smooth as
feasible. We will need the full cooperation of absentee
owners and tenants in order to assure success. I thank
you for your cooperation in advance.

DICTIONARIES FOR THIRD GRADE STUDENTS
This past September and October, the Rotary Club of
Hercules and the Interact Club of Hercules High
School presented a copy of The American Heritage
Children s Dictionary to each Y' grade student in
Hercules and Rodeo. This marks the second year that this
project bas been implemented at the five (5) elementary
schools.
This DictionalY Program has become one of the Rotary
Club 's and Interact Club's larger and more successful
programs. Both Clubs are directing many of their activities
toward the youth in our local community. The program
also underscores Rotary's emphasis on literacy.
The Interact Club is the community service club at
Hercules High School and is sponsored by the Rotary Club
ofRercules. This school year, over 75 students havejoined
the club.
Some Rotary Club members attended each of the
elementary schools and personally presented each child
with their own copy of the dictionary. This year more
Interact students were also able to attend the elementary
schools and help with the distributions. In several cases,
the Interact students were able to return to the elementary
school that they had attended and renew greetings with
some of their old elementary school teachers.
Both Rotary and Interact members enjoyed going into the
schools and distributing the dictionaries. Since the program
is set up where each member works with a small number
of students, tbese members are able to experience the
personal contact as they presented tbe dictionaries to the
3rd graders.
The Rotary Club, through community-based fundraising,
hopes to make this program an annual event for many future
years.
A special thanks is extended to Radston's Office Plus
for their help in ordering the dictionaries and for copying
services.

HELP EASE TRAFFIC FLOW AT PEAK COMMUTE HOURS
As most of you know, traffic in Hercules has become a
bigger concern during peak commute hours. In the past
few years, we have added hundreds of new homes, as well
as a new Middle/High School. With the influx of so many
people, traffic has become congested and more care must
be taken to drive properly.
One of the most common complaints received by the Police
Department is concerning vehicles blocking the intersections
of Sycamore and Refugio Valley Road , as well as Sycamore
and San Pablo Avenue after the light turns red .
Traffic approaching a green light at these intersecti ons is
proceeding into the intersection , but the cars in front of
them are coming to a stop, causing the last few cars in line
to stop in the middle of the intersection . As a driver, you
have the responsibility to make sure that there is sufficient
room on the other side of the intersection for your vehicle
before you pu ll into the intersection. This requires that
you look further up the road beyond the car in front of you.
If you are in traffic and a few cars in front of you are slowing
down , you might not have room to make it through
the intersection. You need to stop, even if your light is
green, and wait until there is room. This might mean you
have to wait for another green light. The alternative, pulling
into the intersection and blocking it, is not on ly illegal, it is
discourteous and inconsiderate . Blocking the intersection
also creates a safety hazard , as emergency vehicles cannot
get through an intersecti on jammed up with cars. Every
second that an emergency veh icle is delayed is a second
someone who really needs them must wait. What if it was
someone you care about who needed that ambulance, fire
truck or police car?
Entering Intersection , Rail Crossing, or Marked
Crosswalk
22526CVC. (a) Notwithstanding any official traffic control
signal indication to proceed, a driver of a vehicle shall
not enter an intersection or marked crosswalk unless
there is sufficient space on the other side of the
intersection or marked crosswalk to accommodate the
vehicle driven without obstructing the through passage of
vehicles from either side.

Holiday Safety
Rodeo-Hercules Fire Protection
District would like to remind you that
human error is involved in most home
heating fires.
These fires
bappen when people place things that can burn too close
to space or portable heaters, when fireplace chimneys are
not inspected and cleaned regularly by a certified chimney
sweep, or when improper fuels are used in fireplaces, like
cardboard or tree trimmings. December, January and
February are the leading months for home fires as well as
home fire deaths in this country. On tbe average, more
than a third of these occur during the winter months. For
the fifth time in six years, portable electric heaters
accounted for the highest home heating tire death toll.
Heating equipment is the second leading cause of home
fires in the United States. Most of these fires could be
prevented with proper understanding and use of these
devices. When purchasing new heating equipment, we
would like to offer the following guidelines:
• Be sure to select products that have been tested and
approved by an independent testing laboratory.
• Install and maintain heating equipment correctly.
• Be sure it complies with local fire and building codes.
Safety should be your first consideration when heating your
home
Portable Heater Safety Tips:
• Heaters should be placed at least 36" away from
anything that can burn, including wallpaper, bedding,
clothing, pets and people.
• Never leave space heaters operating when you are not
in the room or when you go to sleep.
• Don't leave children or pets unattended with space
heaters.
• Don't attempt to dry clothes or other combustibles over
space heaters.
• Inspect the electric cord on the heater and if it is worn
or frayed , have the cord replaced by a professional
electrician.
Additional Heating Safety Tips:
• Have your chimney inspected by a professional prior
to the start of every heating season.
• Always use a sturdy screen in front of the fireplace
opening to prevent sparks from flying out.
• Remember to burn only wood in a fireplace and not
trash, trimmings or cardboard and never use
flammable liquids in a fireplace!!
The winter holidays are a time for celebration, and that
means more cooking, lots of parties, and a risk of fire.
In recent years, Christmas tree fires have accounted for
numerous deaths, injuries and high dollar loss. Follow
these fire safety tips to help keep your family safe during
the holidays:
Holiday Lighting
Take care when burning candles. Be sure they are kept
well away from decorations or other combustible
materials. Don't leave children unattended in a room
with lit candles, and keep candles, matches, and lighters
up high out of reach of children.
• Never use candles to decorate Christmas trees!!!
• Never place electric lights on a metal Christmas
tree!! !
• When decorating with lights, use only those labeled by
a testing laboratory. (UL Approved) Check for and
replace frayed or damaged cords.
• Don' t overload electrical outlets and turn off or unplug
all lights before leaving home or going to sleep.
Holiday Parties
• Decorate with only flame-retardant or noncombustible
materials.
• If your guests smoke, provide them with large deep
ashtrays and check them frequently.
• After the party, check inside and under upholstery and
trashcans for smoldering cigarette butts.
I5
Public Safety
Holiday Safety (Continued)
Christmas Tree Safety
• Choose a fresh Christmas tree and put it in a stand
designed not to tip over.
• Keep tree well away from heat sources and exits and
water it constantly. If you purchase an artificial tree,
be sure it is labeled fire retardant.
• If you hang stockings, live garlands, and combustible
decorations over the fireplace, don't bum in the
fireplace.
IT IS BEST NOT TO PLACE ANY COMBUSTIBLES
ON OR NEAR THE FIRE PLACE OPENING.
Kitchen Fire Safety
• Wear tight-fitting clothes when cooking -loose
clothes can be ignited by hot burners.
• Don 't leave the kitchen with something cooking on the
stovetop and always tum pot handles inward.
• Don't store items on the stovetop - they could catch
fire.
• Don't overload electrical outlets.
• Don't use electrical appliances in or near water.
The Rodeo-Hercules Fire Protection District wishes
everyone a happy and safe holiday season.

breakthrough
piano method
from Australia
opens musical doors
for everyone
Simply Music® is a remarkable,
Australian·developed piano and
keyboard program that has beginning
students - children, teens, adults and
seniors playing great-sounding pop,
blues, classical and accompaniment
pieces - immediately - from their very
first lessons.
Traditional lessons, for the most part,
require that students first learn to read
music as the means of learning how to
play. This 'read first, play later'
approach is slow and frustrating, and
far too many students never acquire
the ability to play. In fact, many lose
their desire to learn altogether.
Think of Simply Music as being like
learning to talk. We all talked for years
before we learned how to read and
spell. It's the same with our program.
We delay the music reading process
and start by showing you how to play
fantastic music - immediately.
Beginning students, with no attention
on having to read music, are free to
relate directly to the piano, and within
months easily and naturally begin to
establish a 'hands-on' and personal
'feeling' for the instrument as they
build a play-list Ihat includes popular,
classical , blues and jazz styles, as
well as develop the ability to play
chords and modem accompaniments.
Unlike learning by rote , th is program
is tactile , experiential , and multisensory, with students being
physically, visually and aurally fully
absorbed.
After building a repertoire of 30 to 50
pieces covering a broad range of
musical styles, students go on to
learn how to read music, their ability
to play so well providing a powerful
foundation for learning the more
formal aspects of .music education.
Learning with a teacher is ideal for
those who like the structure of
having someone to report to each
week , and would benefit from
participating in private or group
lessons under the guidance of a
trained and accredited Simply Music
teacher. Students attend lessons on
a weekly basis, and receive
professionally prepared audiovisual
and printed materials. These are a
supplement to the learning process
and are designed to ensure the
students' success.
For those with extensive prior
experience a suitable teacher can
tailor th is remarkable program to
meet your specific needs.
