On the video posted by the city of our mayor speaking about Adelanto becoming the "Sillicon Valley of Marijuana" he mentioned that there would be requirements for these growers to hire residents, if I'm not mistaken the mayor stated in fact that most of the businesses, industries in the city had a requirement to hire residents as a percentage of the work force.
When I first moved here, there was a listing provided to me of the companies in the area that hired the city's residents.
I think we need to take this a step further and dedicate a page in the city's website listing these job openings from these companies. It's easy to say there were not enough applicants when no one even knew there was a job opening.
Can we begin to require these companies to list these jobs on this website if this is not being done already?

I'm a previous resident of the Ridge View apartment complex on Auburn Ave., with several friends who still live there. Just beyond the northern fence of the property is someone's empty lot that has always been a major dump site for anonymous parties mattresses, furniture and more recently piles of household garbage. I can attest this is not the blame of the complex residents, since my apartment was just inside that fence, where I saw on several occasions people driving up and dumping their garbage.
Before I moved that site had already become a health hazard, home to clouds of flies, roaches and families of vermin; very much a health hazard to the entire region.
The site has become so large and deep with garbage that this coming summer promises to endanger the health of the entire city. The owners of that property need to be ordered to clean it up at the very least. They've had far too long with many warnings to expect voluntary remediation. The worst of many dump-sites in the area..
