The Honorable Charles Margines City of Placentia response: "Drones: Know Before You Fly" July 20, 2016 Response (R.5): This recommendation has not yet been implemented, but will require further analysis to determine the best approach to provide the most up-to-date information to the proper website and what cost, if any, would be required of the City to put into operation. Grand Jury Recommendation 9 (R.9): The County and each City should formally gather data on recreational drone incidents within their jurisdictions and review these data annually and report the results publicly. The first analysis and publication should occur within 1 year of the publication of this report. Response (R.9): Although the City does not "formally" gather data on drone incidents annually, the police department does keep information on the different calls generated by drone-related complaints. This recommendation would require further analysis to determine the benefits for collecting such data and to what government entity it would be reported. Prior to implementing such a process, the City will request information from the County and other cities on the different variables of information that would be needed and how the data would be reported. Thank you for affording us this opportunity to comment upon the findings and recommendations of the Grand Jury. Should you have any questions or need clarification regarding the City's responses contained herein, please do not hesitate to contact my office at (714) 993-8186. Sincerely, Jeremy B. Yamaguchi, Mayor Peter Hersh, Foreman CC:
