Sharon Friedrichsen, Director, Contracts and Budgets, and Chip Rerig, City Administrator, Mislead City Council and Public with Fallacious Narrative on Home Mail Delivery Service
With
regard to the City’s Home Mail Delivery Service, the May 1, 2018 CITY COUNCIL Staff Report SUBMITTED BY Sharon Friedrichsen,
Director of Budget and Contracts and APPROVED
BY Chip Rerig, City Administrator stated:
The city implemented home mail delivery to settle the debate between those who favor street addresses, mailboxes and traditional mail delivery and others who hold the daily trek to the Carmel Post Office as a sacred tradition.
“Anyone who lives within the city limits, who has a post office box and who would like to have their mail come to their home can request it,” city administrative assistant Stephanie Pearce said. To limit the service to disabled or homebound residents would be unlawful.
Most of the residents who have signed up are seniors or disabled, according to Campbell, though
some able-bodied citizens take advantage of the convenience, too.
SOURCE: INTERNET ARCHIVE
During FY 2000-2001, the Council
decided to contract with a courier service to provide home mail delivery to residents
“who are physically unable or who for some other reason cannot obtain their
mail on a regular basis from the post office located in Carmel-by-the-Sea”.
The Council implemented the home
mail delivery service in 2001 in response to public demand for mail delivery
for those were physically unable to retrieve mail at the Carmel-by-the-Sea post
office.

SUBJECT:
Consider Continuing, Modifying, or Eliminating Home Mail Delivery
Service Provided by the City.
Nearly two years later, the March 3, 2020 CITY
COUNCIL Staff Report SUBMITTED BY Sharon Friedrichsen, Director of Budget and Contracts and APPROVED BY Chip Rerig, City Administrator
stated:
:
The rationale for imposing
disability as a criteria is that it correlates to the program’s intent of
assisting “residents that are physically unable to visit the post office”. In
order to impose this criteria, the City would require the submission of a
disability exemption waiver form.
As stated within Resolution
2003-91, the purpose of the City contracting for home mail delivery service was
to provide “as an essential community service for those residents that are
physically unable to visit the post office or who, for some other reason,
cannot obtain mail on a regular basis”. Council may wish to consider what
constitutes “other reasons” for not being able to obtain mail on a regular
basis, determine whether such reasons justify the use of public funds for the
service and impose associated criteria.”

City council
learns the price of private home delivery
By TAMARA GRIPPI

2A The Carmel
Pine Cone January 5, 2001
Several
council members expressed hope at recent meetings that a private courier
service will be the compromise to settle the year-long mail debate begun by
home-delivery activist Joe Steinfeld.
Carmel
officials are trying to strike a balance between preserving Carmel’s tradition
of no mailboxes while satisfying those who
either require or request home delivery.”
Guillen
will present his report at the council’s Jan. 9 meeting, which begins at 3:30

THE CARMEL City
Council approved, in theory, a compromise that will provide home delivery to
anyone who wants it,
while still defending the city against an onslaught of mail boxes and street
addresses.
Voting
4-1, with councilwoman Barbara Livingston dissenting, the council authorized
city administrator Rich Guillen to negotiate a contract with The Carmel mailbox
to provide door-to-door delivery.
Guillen
advised the council to enter into the contract for one year and then revisit
the decision in 2002. The city
administrator also recommended that the council implement the service on July 1
– the start of the next fiscal year.
Carmel’s elderly
taking advantage of home delivery
By TAMARA GRIPPI

5A The Carmel
Pine Cone June 7, 2002
CARMEL’S
GREAT mail delivery debate, which dominated the talk at nearly every city
council meeting with activist Joe Steinfeld stoking the fires, is now hardly
mentioned.
Nearly
a year ago, the Carmel City Council began paying a private courier to provide
home delivery to residents requesting it, so the rest of the town could
continue the Carmel tradition of making a daily trek to the post office.
Peninsula
Messenger Service, the courier hired by the city to handle the door-to-door
delivery, is currently taking mail to 140 residents, which reflects a bit of an
increase since the service began last July.
Ron
Campbell, owner of Peninsula Messenger Service, said most of his clients are
elderly. “Some are handicapped people,
though certainly not the majority,” Campbell said. “But 85 to 90 percent are
elderly at the very least.”

LEAGUE OF CALIFORNIA CITIES Representing Almost 500 Cities Requests Governor ‘take immediate action to pause certain statutory requirements, so that cities can devote the resources necessary to protect the health and safety of all Californians,’ including ‘Suspend the provision of Government Code 6253(c) that limits the extension to respond to 14 days for all Public Records Act requests other than those for records created during, and relating to, the State of Emergency.’
ABSTRACT: In a letter dated March 22, 2020 from Carolyn M. Coleman Executive Director, League of California Cities, to The Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, Coleman requests that Newsom “take immediate action to pause certain statutory requirements, so that cities can devote the resources necessary to protect the health and safety of all Californians” including “Requested Relief” for Review and Approval of Development Projects, Housing Elements, California Environmental Quality Act, Transportation Funding, Public Records Act, Political Reform Act - Form 700, California Government Claims Act, Solar Permits, Wireless Telecommunication Facilities, Financial Reports and Police Department Registration. Regarding the Public Records Act, Relief Requested: State that the phrase “unusual circumstances” found in Section 6253(c) includes the State of Emergency. Suspend the provision of Government Code 6253(c) that limits the extension to respond to 14 days for all Public Records Act requests other than those for records created during, and relating to, the State of Emergency. In response, David Synder, Executive Director, First Amendment Coalition, stated “I don’t think it’s necessary for the governor to do this,” “If the governor were to do this, it would open the door to further abuses of the Public Records Act by agencies." “There could — and I think likely would — be a massive."
