Litter Subcommittee Meeting Report
Tuesday, March 23, 2021, 1:00 pm
Via WebEx Hosted by Caltrans
Chairperson John Enriquez
1. Welcome and Introductions
The meeting was called to order at 1:05 pm. In attendance were Jason Miao,
John Liu, Clay Lomax, John Enriquez, Major Karen Goh, Rob Bell, Jay Asistin,
Jessica Felix, John Noriega, Brooks Douglas, Derek Morris, Diana Gomez, and
Sal Moretti.
2. Caltrans Weekly Litter Report and Look Ahead – John Liu, Caltrans
John Liu reported homeless encampments remain a big issue. Sal Moretti asked
st
John Liu if two additional crews were expected on July 1 in the county, but John
replied there has not been a county extension yet approved. Two additional
Bakersfield crews have been approved. Mayor Karen Goh thanked Jason Miao
and Diana Gomez for their attention to our area. A half a million dollars is being
requested and we are almost there. Diana said that local partnerships make
funding go further.
3. Caltrans Project Update – Caltrans
Clay Lomax reported we won’t see much of the finished construction through
Bakersfield yet. Belle Terrace is on the verge of acceptance. The Gap Project
from Highway 99 to Cottonwood on 58 is at the restriping phase. Lots of trash
should be removed soon. Homeless encampments are always a challenge
through that area. Highway 99 work from Wilson Road to Olive Drive North
bound is complete. Concrete work is progressing North bound on 99 between
White Lane and Panama Lane.
4. Downtown Cleanups
a. World Mission Society Church of God, March 7 – Beau Alaniz
Beau was unable to attend, so John Enriquez reported that the Church
provided 255 hours of community service, picked up 80 bags of trash, and
planted 8 flats of dianthus, and 5 5-gallon Crape Myrtles.
b. Boy Scout Troop 712, February 6 – John Enriquez
The Boy Scout’s provided 70 hours of service with 35 volunteers. They
removed 18 illegal signs, collected 50 bags of trash, and planted 6 flats of
flowers. The flowers look great, due to the watering by the Street
Ambassadors.
5. Freeway Litter Partnership Update
Sal Moretti thanked Caltrans for their support. He wondered whether the Delano
crew presently out of Bakersfield could be run out of Delano instead since the
county will have a Recovery Center there in the next few months. Jay Asistin did
not see why that wouldn’t be possible. Sal inquired whether Caltrans signage can
be in Spanish and John Liu said it is not allowed. Jessica Felix said starting in
April the new crew will work 3-5 times a week. Rob Ball reported funding levels
remain the same from Kern COG. Jay Asistin reported stretching litter pickup
areas by area. This week they were working McFarland to the county line and
last week they worked to the Tejon Outlets. The Veterans Crew will be on that
Northern stretch as well. These efforts resulted from a video sent into Caltrans
showing just how bad litter on Highway 99 was. Caltrans crews continue cleaning
Highways 58, 178, 99, and 204 on Saturdays using the tools at hand. John
Enriquez told Jay the flowers on 178 looked great. Jay said some gazanias and
lantana are annuals and as the Caltrans crews work some replanting is done as
litter is picked up. Derek Morris reported on some programmatic changes to the
Veterans Outreach Program. They are looking to collaborate with volunteer
groups to do projects to give back to the local community. A mentoring program
on weekends with local volunteers is in the works with mentorships staring this
week. The Veterans Program will get with John Enriquez on large cleanup
opportunities.
6. Committee Member or Public Comments
th
Jessica Felix reported there will be an Earth Day volunteer effort on April 24
with community groups doing litter cleanup and maybe some tree planting. Mayor
Goh thanked John Enriquez for organizing the recent cleanups and for all his
th
efforts. Brooks Douglass said there was a cleanup scheduled on April 24 along
the bike path from 9 to 11 am. He will be working with Councilmember Bob
Smith on this. Brooks suggested that Derek could call him if the veterans would
like to participate.
7. Adjournment
The meeting was adjourned at 1:32 pm.
Minutes were taken by Carola Enriquez, volunteer.
