The Selma Cemetery District has once again hired security to prevent people watching 3rd of July fireworks from causing a mess.

Entryways at the two cemeteries across the street from Shafer Park have been blocked off.

The Floral Memorial cemetery's gates were closed and locked, with signs next to them indicating it was walk-in only.

At the North cemetery, barricades with caution tape were put up at both entrances/exits.

A single security guard dressed in yellow and black was seen walking the premises at the Floral Memorial Cemetery, and taking shade under trees at the corner of Floral & Wright.

In years past, people have enjoyed watching the fireworks while sitting next to their loved ones' graves.

Sometimes, people just came to the cemetery because it was a good vantage point to see the fireworks.

However, at the end of the evening, parts of the cemetery were littered with trash -- many times right on top of graves.

A few years ago, the cemetery district's board decided the trashy situation was unsightly and moved forward with hiring security to discourage people from camping out on graves.

With parts of the San Joaquin Valley forecast to hit 118°F, PG&E says it's anticipating energy loads near record levels -- close to that of September 2022 when rolling blackouts were just narrowly avoided.

PG&E says it is preparing for what could be a record-breaking heat wave across California.

"What we're going to see over the next 7 days rivals some of our biggest heat waves that we've ever experienced in the PG&E service territory," said PG&E meteorologist Scott Strenfel.

Strenfel, alongside PG&E incident commander Mark Quinlan, delivered the forecast for not just the temperatures, but also the electricity demand, at a media briefing in Vacaville this afternoon.

Quinlan said PG&E is anticipating a load forecast of 22,106 megawatts (MW). He said the all-time system peak was 22,684 MW back on September 6, 2022.

The company is reviewing previous major heat waves to get a look at what may be ahead.

"So, we're going back to and looking at July 2006 and September of 2022 to get some comparisons with what we're going to see," Strenfeld said.

"This is a long-duration heat event," Quinlan said. He called it "very, very dangerous" and said the utility has prepositioned equipment in locations where they think things may take a turn for the worst.

Quinlan says the PG&E Emergency Operations Center in Vacaville (between Sacramento and San Francisco) has been actived, along with numerous other regional and divisional centers.

Quinlan says PG&E had flown helicopters on 50 transmission lines to see if there are any trouble areas, such as trees that might be too close.

Strenfeld said Redding could see temperatures of 118°F, which could shatter all-time records there.

He also says a major concern is how long the heat wave is expected to last -- with many locations experiencing 110°F or more for 8 days in a row.

Selma's annual fireworks tradition continues tonight with a big fireworks show starting after dusk.

Thousands of people are expected at Selma High School's Staley Stadium to watch the colorful celebration.

The gates open at 5:30 p.m.

Despite today's extreme heat, no drinks, food, or ice chests are allowed to be brought inside. However, vendors will have drinks & food items for sale.

Blankets and lawn chairs are allowed to be brought in.

COST

The entry fee is $5 for adults, however veterans with IDs will be not be charged.

Children ages 5 through 10 are $2.

Children 4 and younger are free.

ALTERNATIVES

Families who wish not to pay the entry fee or be beholden to the no food/drinks rule -- or those who simply want to avoid crowds for health or other reasons -- may opt to watch from their cars or along sidewalks near the stadium.

Another popular location is Shafer Park, nearby at Floral & Thompson.

LIVE BRIEFING IN 20 MINUTES... 2:00 P.M.

With parts of central California expected to hit 115 degrees this weekend, PG&E is preparing for it.

The utility plans to talk about its planned response to the first significant heat wave of 2024 in a live stream at 2:00 p.m. today.

You can watch it on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/live/rrnPvYw66xY

Several cities are forecasted to reach 115°F or higher on both Saturday, July 6th and Sunday, July 7th.

That includes Coalinga (115), Kettleman City (115), Huron (116), Cantua Creek (115), Five Points (115/116), and San Joaquin (115).

Some of the more populated locations, like Fresno, Visalia, Hanford, and Bakersfield, are forecast to reach 114°F.

Extreme heat puts added strain on certain pieces of equipment that keep power running to homes and businesses; there is an increased risk of critical equipment going down.

Many people tend to ramp-up air conditioner use during heat waves, which can lead to issues with electricity supply.

"During a heat wave, increased demand for power can put a strain on the electric grid. To keep the grid stable, PG&E may be instructed to turn off power to small groups of customers for about 1–2 hours," PG&E posted on its website -- referring to what most Californians simply call "rolling blackouts.

The California Independent System Operator would be the one to give the "rolling blackouts" order to PG&E. It keeps the public updated about grid conditions with its website, CAISO.com, and its mobile app.

The Selma City Council will consider an $18,000-per-year animal-services contract with the City of Fowler at this evening's council meeting.

The proposal calls for the contract to be one year long, and that Selma would bill Fowler every three months, according to the July 1st Selma City Council packet.

It also says the contract could be extended following a review 3 months before it ends.

The city/staff report says the Fowler reached out to Selma many months ago, inquiring about animal services.

The report also claims the contract "would offer benefits such as additional grant funding and increased adoption rates."

The City of Selma relaunched its own animal-services unit on January 1, 2024, under the direction of the Selma Police Department.

That happened just after the city ended a contract with Second Chance Animal Shelter, which the city/staff report says "was no longer meeting the needs of the City."

In a contract extension last summer (signed July 19, 2023), the city noted that the facility was "well-over capacity with animals", and ordered Second Chance to stop picking up animals from Fowler and Kingsburg.

The council packet for today's meeting revealed Second Chance was getting about $12,000 for its Fowler contract -- about $6,000 less than the contract being presented at this evening's meeting.

Last July's contract extension increased the amount of money the city would pay Second Chance to $30,000 per month.

When the city took over animal control in January, costs shifted.

On February 20th, the city council considered salary ranges for the Animal Services director and the Animal Services technician.

The city reviewed Bay Area salaries for those positions, and proposed the following:
• Director receive $8,271 to $10,053 per month
• Technician receive $3,729 to $4,533 per month

Council members John Trujillo, Beverly Cho, and Blanca Mendoza-Navarro voted to approve the resolution affirming those salaries.

Together, the director and tech make (at minimum) $12,000 a month.

It's unclear what other costs the animal-services division regularly incurs.

Selma's transition to Mid-Valley Disposal is underway today.

While lots of people are still frustrated the elimination of alley service, the trash/recycling/green waste pickups seem to be going smoothly.

Today's residential pickups were on the west side of Freeway 99. There was also commercial bin pickups going on.

If you had any issues with service, feel free to post in the comments or e-mail us at: [email protected].

01/07/2024

Mid-Valley Disposal's first trash pickups in the City of Selma are beginning this morning (July 1, 2024).

The contract for city's previous solid-waste hauler, Waste Management, ended yesterday.

Among the biggest concerns for people living in one part of Selma is the elimination of alley service, which has been a staple for decades.

The request to get rid of alley pickups was made by the city to Mid-Valley Disposal.

Citizens who are upset about the decision say they plan to make their frustration known at this evening's city council meeting, scheduled to begin at 6:00 p.m.

Mid-Valley Disposal has been preparing for the big switch for the last several months.

In recent weeks, properties received new "Mid-Valley Disposal"-branded metal bins and plastic carts.

A video captured in one Selma neighborhood showed carts being pushed off the edge of a truck platform while being delivered, causing them to fall about 6 feet to the street below.

Mid-Valley Disposal is asking residents to check their carts for signs of damage, and report any issues to the company right away.

If there is a particular concern you'd like us to look into, happening in your neighborhood, please email: [email protected].

Summer is about to body slam Selma with several days of temperatures at 110°F or higher.

July 3rd (day of the fireworks show at Selma High School) is expected to be one of the hottest -- 111 degrees.

Get ready for it:
• Stock up on water/drinks early
• Prepare generators in case power goes out
• Wear a life jacket when swimming in rivers/lakes (basic ones cost as little as $12)
• Read up on heat exhaustion & heat stroke; knowing the signs can be critical to possibly saving someone's life
• Consider going to the coast/L.A./San Francisco to escape the heat

Roughly 4 months from now, voters in Selma and across the nation will cast their votes for president. While many support President Biden's run, others were disappointed by Thursday's debate & think someone else should be the nominee. The most talked-about names are VP Kamala Harris & Governor Gavin Newsom.

26/06/2024

Governor Newsom believes the state is now on the right path forward after various programs & protocols were established since he took office.

Some Selma residents are wondering if the city has its priorities straight after making a decision to stop alleyway trash pick-up.

The concerns range from convenience and safety, to blight.

THE BIG CHANGE

When the switch from Waste Management to Mid-Valley Disposal takes place on Monday, July 1st -- just 13 days from today -- alley service is due to come to a grinding halt.

The current solid-waste provider, Waste Management, picks up hundreds of Selma residents' trash cans in the alley behind their homes.

Many residents feel alley pickup is not only convenient, but keeps unsightly bins from being in front of their homes, allowing children and others to walk or ride bikes on sidewalks without having to weave around bins.

POTENTIAL TRAFFIC & SAFETY ISSUES

When trash cans start being picked up in front of people's homes, it means garbage trucks will have to make stops along busy roads like Floral Avenue, potentially slowing down traffic.

There's also concern that bins along the sidewalk could block the view of drivers looking for oncoming vehicles as they try to turn onto Floral or McCall, potentially leading to crashes.

Monday evening, Rose Robertson told the Selma City Council: "Floral and McCall is a very busy, busy street. There's no way that those citizens there are going to be able to pull their trash cans on that street."

"As we all know, McCall is very narrow there," referring to the section of McCall south of Floral, "and that's going to cause liability accidents."

The section of McCall Avenue between Floral Avenue and Arrants Street has one lane of traffic in each direction, with a center turn lane between them to help prevent traffic backups.

A stopped garbage truck could lead rushed drivers to swerve into the turn lane to get around the truck.

Garfield Elementary School is also directly next to that section of McCall, along with 6 school-zone (yellow) crosswalks at Arrants/McCall and Tulare/McCall.

Ms. Robertson suggested a workshop to figure out solutions.

CONVENIENCE & BLIGHT

Various residents have taken to social media (Facebook) to vent their concerns, as well.

Some think alley service, which has been going on for decades, is both logical and easy/convenient; can be done in a pinch from the privacy of your backyard.

Others think putting trash cans out along the sidewalk will lead to problems that other parts of town already experience -- namely, blocking kids from walking or riding their bicycles in a straight line along a sidewalk.

The "not in my front yard crowd" is also saying that a bunch of trash cans in front of their homes will simply be ugly, and it's better to contain all that in the alley.

VOICING YOUR OPINIONS

There are no more Selma City Council meetings currently scheduled between now and when Mid-Valley Disposal begins pickups. But there will be a meeting on the evening of July 1st.

Any resident is always able to call Selma City Hall at 559-891-2200 to relay their concerns. However, it will be closed for Juneteenth (tomorrow) and Independence Day (July 4th).

You're also welcome to e-mail your thoughts to [email protected] -- and we'd be happy to read it and possibly use it in a story. Story ideas can also be sent there, as well.

SUMMARY:
- Alley service is set to discontinue on July 1st
- Residents are venting concerns
- Concerns include safety, convenience, and unsightly neighborhoods
- No city council meetings until the day the switch takes place

The Selma City Council approved a rent-control ordinance for mobile-home residents Monday evening.

The "Mobile Home Rent Stabilization" ordinance aims to keep rent increases at manageable levels -- capping so-called "base rent" at 3% or less -- and forcing the increases to be spread at least 12 months apart.

The ordinance passed with Mayor Scott Robertson, Council Member Sarah Guerra, and Council Member Blanca Mendoza-Navarro all voting for it. They were the only council members present for Monday's meeting; Council Members John Trujillo and Beverly Cho were absent.

In the minutes leading up to the vote, the council heard from several mobile-home park residents who've been working to get this ordinance put into place.

Theresa Salas expressed gratitude for how quickly the ordinance came together: "I would really like to thank [the city] council and [city] staff for hearing us when we first brought this to you, and taking action so quickly on something that is very, very important to us. And we really appreciate all the work that's gone into it."

However, Ms. Salas also mentioned that there were ordinance-related items which she and others would like to see "ironed out in the future," such as the potential loss of amenities.

"Right now, we have a swimming pool. What happens if the swimming pool gets filled in?" Salas told the council. "Is there going to be an adjustment made to our rent because we no longer have that amenity?"

Jim Avalos questioned the council about a piece of ordinance language that had been removed: "I noticed you took out the $10,000 capital improvement. I was just wondering if you guys can put it back in? Put it back in."

Selma's deputy city manager, filling in at the city manager's post on the dais, said he believed the residents had asked for the language to be removed. That led a number of people in attendance to shake their heads 'no'.

After some discussion with the deputy city manager, Mayor Robertson ended up making the motion to approve the ordinance with the $10,000 maximum capital-expense language added in, which was seconded by Council Member Mendoza-Navarro.

The now-approved ordinance will be entered into Selma Municipal Code, Title 5, Chapter 5.5.

Selma currently has 3 mobile-home parks:
• McCall Village Mobile Home Park (near Dinuba & McCall)
• Selma Mobile Estates (near Whitson & Thompson)
• Frontier Mobile Home Park (West Front & Branch)

17/06/2024

The City of Selma is one step closer to enacting rent control for certain residents.

Tonight's Selma City Council meeting agenda includes a rent control item (item #2) for mobile-home renters.

The item is moving through the council at break-neck speed. The draft ordinance was presented at the most-recent council meeting on June 3, 2024, and tonight's agenda item aims for approval without a second reading.

The proposed ordinance defines rent in two different ways -- "base rent" and "space rent".

"Space rent" includes a mobile home park's amenities, benefits, services, and utilities -- while "base rent" is the amount charged for a mobile home space.

The "base rent" is what would be controlled.

The ordinance would allow "base rent" to be increased one time each year by whichever of these is lower:
• 3%
• 75% of the Consumer Price Index, West Region

It would also require a 12-month period between increases, and that property owners give tenants a notice at least 100 days before an increase goes into effect.

The ordinance carves out a long list of "exemptions" for mobile-home parks and their owners, including being able to pass along the cost of certain "capital expenses," which are often very costly. Although, tenants would be able to protest those expenses/improvements, unless it's work that's required by law.

Tenants would also be allowed to fight a rent increase if more than 50% of residents affected sign a petition. That petition would have to be turned in to the city at least 40 days before the increase would go into effect. If accepted by the city, it would trigger a formal hearing to review the increase.

The ordinance also allows mobile-home parks to bypass this particular ordinance by having their own agreement with the City of Selma.

Tonight's council meeting begins at 6:00 p.m. at Selma City Hall.

SUMMARY:
• City council could approve tonight without a 2nd reading
• Ordinance would provide a yearly rental increase in the neighborhood of 3%
• Gives mobile-home owners a lot of exemptions that could nickel-and-dime tenants
• Gives tenants ways to petition increases, but are not guaranteed

Selma residents needs to leave their garbage, recycling, and green-waste cans in front of their homes this week so that Waste Management bins can be replaced with Mid-Valley Disposal bins.

Two weeks from today, on July 1, 2024, Mid-Valley Disposal will be the new solid-waste provider for the City of Selma.

Mid-Valley Disposal says it's already replaced many of the large metal bins that businesses and apartment complexes use.

Now, it's going to focus on replacing residential cans over the next 2 weeks.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO

To accomplish this, Mid-Valley Disposal is asking residents to leave their trash cans in front of their homes for a day or two after they're picked up so that old ones can be gathered up & new ones delivered.

If you're in an area where your bins get picked up in an alley: once the cans get dumped, move them to the sidewalk in front of your house. This is where Mid-Valley plans to swap your bins, and it's where you'll start to put your bins on your pickup days. They won't be picked up in the alley starting July 1st.

ALLEY PICKUP SERVICE DISCONTINUED

Mid-Valley Disposal explained at a city council meeting that the City of Selma requested sidewalk pickups in the future.

The reason was straight-forward: If there was a situation where a property owner needed to be fined for putting an item into the wrong bin, the city wanted to be sure it could pinpoint which garbage can belonged to which property. With alley service, that's more difficult.

HOW YOU COULD GET FINED

Mid-Valley Disposal says there will be many warnings issued before fines go out to property owners.

Fines would result from putting an item into a bin it's not intended to go in. In other words, trash items need go in the trash bin, not recycling. And recyclable items go in the reycling bin, not trash.

One item often used as an example is a cardboard pizza box. If the box is clean, it should go into the recycling bin. If it's dirty, it should go into the waste bin.

Pizza boxes from frozen pizzas are usually clean (since the pizza is usually wrapped in plastic). However, pizza boxes from a pizza parlor would usually not be -- as they are often tainted with oil from cheese, pepperoni, etc.

TRANSITION PERIOD

Mid-Valley Disposal plans to swap-out residential bins over the next two weeks.

Waste Management will continue to empty Selma trash bins until its contract ends on June 30th.

Alley service will continue until June 30th. However, starting June 1st, all alley trash bins will need to be moved to the sidewalk in front of your home, or perhaps even the road if access to your sidewalk is blocked.

WATERMELON FESTIVAL IN KINGSBURG

Free watermelon is available right now, to anyone who wants some, at Kingsburg's Memorial Park, next to Kingsburg High School.

Kingsburg business Uptown Sprouts is putting on the event, which runs from 5:00 to 8:00 pm.

Today's event is a revival of sorts. Kingsburg used to hold an annual watermelon festival at the high school football stadium, but that ended in the early 2000s, despite how popular it was.

In fact, some of the guys who cut the watermelons back then are also cutting them today.

Today's event also features dozens of vendors, who are selling food, desserts, and homemade wares/trinkets.

The Selma Police Department is hoping you might have information on a triple shooting.

The shooting took place last night in the 3400 block of Mulberry Street. That's in a neighborhood between Jackson Elementary School and Abraham Lincoln Middle School.

Police say 3 people had been shot, and that none of them are cooperating with the police investigation. They are "providing minimal information," according to Selma PD.

Investigators are now hoping you might be able to provide any details that could piece together who carried out the shooting.

Police did not say exactly what time the shooting happened; only that officers responded to Adventist Medical Center, Selma just before midnight after someone with a gunshot wound arrived.

If you have any information, or perhaps surveillance video that might aid in the investigation, you can call 559-896-2525 and ask to speak with Detective Matt Hughes or Sergeant Cassy Fain.

Some business owners in Selma are extremely concerned about a Caltrans project, set to start Thursday, that could close portions of Freeway 99 for up to a year.

One business owner is even contemplating cutting jobs if lengthy off-ramp closures lead to drastically fewer customers.

Caltrans says the "next stage" of the Selma-to-Fowler Rehabilitation Project is expected to be complete by mid-June, but just weeks ago also acknowledged to the Selma City Council that timelines may have to shift for various reasons.

Neither Caltrans nor the City of Selma has given an exact date when the ramps will start being closed.

The City of Selma says "ramp closures [are] projected to go into effect about 2 weeks after" the project begins.

Stewawel News has reached out to Caltrans several times over the last year, attempting to get project information passed along. So far, we still have not received a reply from Caltrans spokeswoman Elizabeth Yelton.

You can watch more about the project and the concerns by tuning in right now to MyTV53 News (channel 53.1 over the air). The story will be on at 8:01 and 8:31 P.M.
