Skateboard Regulations Being Considered
7/30/2010  The Parking, Traffic and Circulation Committee met on July 22 to consider possible restrictions on skateboarding within the City. The meeting was held at Thurston Middle School in anticipation of a large number of attendees. Approximately 160 to 170 people attended the meeting. Committee members heard comments from 35 speakers. The Committee had formed a subcommittee to study the issue. The subcommittee is expected to have final recommendations for the full Committee to consider on September 23rd.
Automated External Defibrillator
7/30/2010  On July 18, Laguna Beach Police and Fire personnel were dispatched to a home in the 200 block of Wave Street for a report of a 56 year old man who had fallen. An officer arriving initially determined that the man was not breathing and requested a second officer bring the Automated External Defibrillator. After initially attempting to resuscitate the man with breaths, the defibrillator was applied and indicated a shock was required.
