cool clear nights are quite
enjoyable. As leaves on the
trees at Poncitlán Square turn
into a beautiful array of colors,
it signals to us that the seasons
are indeed changing.
Well, the seasons aren’t
the only things changing this
fall in Palmdale. Probably
the biggest change is in our
General Municipal Election
which will be held Tuesday, November 8. This will mark the first election in
Palmdale with districts for City Council seats. You may learn more about this
change on page 11 of the Magazine.
We’re also introducing a new special event that I know you’ll enjoy. It’s called
Kaleidoscope and it is a fun-filled music and arts extravaganza for all ages that’s
coming to the Palmdale Amphitheater on October 8. Details are on page 14.
As an animal lover, I am excited to announce Yellen Park is now under
construction, which includes the City’s first dog park. Changes to City codes
are also underway to allow for pet hotels in Palmdale, and the first new
Animal Shelter built by the County in 45 years has opened to care for our
furry friends. You may even get the opportunity to adopt-a-pet at our City
Council meetings!
Finally, changes are happening all around the landscape of Palmdale. Right
now, tens of millions of dollars are being invested into our economy with the
construction of two new hotels, a Carmax auto showroom and refurbishment
center, two charter schools and the Palmdale campus of Antelope Valley College.
Several other large projects are in
the planning stages and will soon be
under construction.
It’s going to be a great fall for sure,
New!
and I invite you to take advantage of
all the programs, classes, events and
shopping opportunities Palmdale has
to offer.
Sincerely,
James Purtee
City Manager

Shopping
Online?
Ship to Your Palmdale Store
With the ease of using laptop computers and
smart phones, it’s no wonder that online shopping
has grown in recent years. However, you can still
Shop Palmdale and shop online. How? Simply do
your shopping online and have your items shipped
to your local store. Places such as Lowe’s, Target,
Best Buy, Macy’s, Dillard’s, Michael’s, Walmart,
Kohl’s, Home Depot, O’Reilly Auto Parts — you
name it — all offer ship to store options. By
shipping to your Palmdale store, you’ll keep your
tax dollars here at home. Most stores offer this as
a free service. Please keep this in mind when you
make an online purchase. You’ll reap the benefits.
Shopping Palmdale
Makes a Difference!
Sales tax dollars that are generated in Palmdale stay in Palmdale.
They are the single largest source of revenue for the City. What that
means for residents is that we can adequately fund everything
from our sheriff ’s and fire protection to summer concerts and
Family Movie Nights — plus all the other services and programs
we enjoy.
Keeping your tax dollars in Palmdale helps local businesses
thrive. With increased revenue, businesses grow, expand their
services and retain or even grow their workforces. The more jobs
we create here at home will help reduce the number of commuters
who have to travel out of the area.
Shopping locally helps create a sense of community wellbeing. Locally owned and operated businesses help build strong
neighborhoods by sustaining communities, linking neighbors
and by contributing more to local causes.
So, the next time you need to make a purchase, keep in mind that
you can have an impact on the quality of life in the City where you
live when you shop locally. Think Palmdale and shop Palmdale!

Rancho Vista
Boulevard Overlay
The City of Palmdale has 504 miles of roads,
totaling over 91.8 million square feet of asphalt.
Regular maintenance of roads is an important
part of the City’s ongoing Capital Improvement
Projects.
One recent road project was the $1.8 million
cape seal program, which took place in several
neighborhoods throughout the City. Cape sealing
is a pavement preservation method that gives
roads an additional 10 to 12 years of life before
they will need to be revisited.
The City will soon begin resurfacing Rancho
Vista Blvd. from 30th St. West to Ave. N-8. This
$1.5 million road investment will provide an
additional 20 years before the area will need to
be revisited.
These two projects combined will cover
approximately seven percent of the City’s total
road inventory. More projects will be underway in
the future.
You’re Invited to Attend
City Meetings
Palmdale City Council meetings are held on the
first Wednesday of the month beginning at 7 pm.
Palmdale Planning Commission meets on the
second Thursday of the month beginning at 7 pm.
The Board of Library Trustees meets on the third
Tuesday of each month at 5:30 pm.
These meetings take place at the Council
Chamber, 38300 Sierra Highway, Suite B.

Preventing
Illegal Dumping
In the final report of a three part series, the City will highlight its efforts in the
prevention of illegal dumping.
With grant funding assistance from CalRecycle, the City had a customized
app created by the developers of the MyWaste App. The MyWaste App not
only helps keeps track of street sweeping and trash/recycling collection days,
but it also allows you to report illegal dumping and other issues. The app
allows users to send photos and the GPS location of dumping sites which
helps staff track locations.
Another way the City is combating illegal dumping is through our voucher
program with Waste Management. Each residential customer receives two
vouchers per year good for free disposal of up to one ton of solid waste at
the Palmdale Landfill. Waste Management also provides bulky item pick up
services to all residential accounts, allowing customers to place up to four
bulky items curbside for pickup, four times a year, at no cost. The Antelope
Valley Environmental Collection Center provides free recycling and disposal
of your household hazardous waste and electronic waste on the first and third
Saturday of each month from 9 am to 3 pm.
In addition, the City meets quarterly with the Antelope Valley Illegal
Dumping Task Force, which includes individuals from the County and
surrounding neighborhoods. The Task Force discusses outreach approaches
and alternative ways to problem solve this on-going issue. They partnered
with Joel Greene on his award-winning television show, Curiosity Quest Goes
Green, for a special episode on illegal dumping. This video is available at the
Palmdale City Library.
Other ways the City works to get the message out about illegal dumping is
through press releases, social media, our website, and through informative
public service announcements which you may watch on YouTube by searching
for “Palmdale Illegal Dumping.”
Despite all the time, staff, and financial resources put into preventing illegal
dumping, we need your help to put an end to it. All of us have a duty to keep
our desert beautiful. After all, it is the place we call home.

—Coach John Wooden
A Community in Action!
2016 Season of Service
The 2016 Season of Service completed another successful year with Stamp Out
Hunger on May 14.
The Season began on January 16 at the MLK Day of Service: Adopt-a-Block
event where residents worked with YouthBuild students to revitalize a
focus neighborhood. The Season continued with a Homeless Services Awareness meeting where
service providers and residents learned about the varied programs offered to
assist homeless and at risk families and individuals. The annual Los Angeles
Homeless Service Authority (LAHSA) Homeless Count brought volunteers
together to count the valley’s homeless population to assist with funding and
services. Spring Cleaning: Airpark Edition prepared Joe Davies Heritage Airpark
for another great summer season. South Antelope Valley Emergency Services
(SAVES) received a Spring cleaning in March, and the season wound down with
the Hammack Neighborhood Adopt-a-Block and Global Youth Service Day in
April. Thank you to the residents who came out to serve their community, donating
their time, passion and skills. The 2017 Season of Service dates will be available
at www.cityofpalmdale.org/engaged.
For more information please contact Community Programs Coordinator Trish
Jones at 267-5473.
There is no doubt, Coach Darrell Davis cares. Darrell
has been a volunteer coach for the City of Palmdale
for the past 25 years! He lends his knowledge and
talent to youth participating in the winter and summer
basketball programs. While his own children are grown
and no longer participate, Darrell has continued to
donate time to assist developing athletes. According
to Recreation Supervisor Ryan Herman, who oversees
sports programs, “Darrell has been a positive role
model for children participating in our youth
basketball programs for years, teaching them the
game, sportsmanship and life skills. We appreciate his
dedication and passion for helping the youth in our
community!” Thank you Darrell!
Darrell is one example of the many ways residents can
engage in their community. For ideas and opportunities,
please visit www.cityofpalmdale.org/engaged.

Ambassador of Americana Charles Phoenix’s laugh-out-loud comedy takes you
back in time when Disneyland, the granddaddy of all theme parks, was new.
With his keen expertise, eagle eye for oddball detail and joyous enthusiasm,
Charles lavishes fun and fact-filled commentary of the very best of his colorful
collection of ‘found’ Kodachrome slides taken in Tomorrowland,
Adventureland, Frontierland, Fantasyland and Main Street USA in the ’50s and
’60s. See long-gone attractions — phantom boats, flying saucers, Indian Village,
Rainbow Mountain stage coaches, PeopleMover, Carousel of Progress — and
more. Enjoy amazing vintage images of the original Tomorrowland when it was
promoted as “The World of 1986.” Charles shares the backstory of the Monorail,
takes you inside the all-plastic Monsanto House of the Future and the legendary
TWA Rocket to the Moon. In addition to the Disney delights, tour Freedomland
USA, the ill-fated Disneyland-wannabe theme park in New York City,
plus over-the-top Disneyland area themed-motels, and much more!
Your imagination will be inspired and your spirit will soar!
