LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

“Cool Water” was written in 1936 by Bob Nolan 
about a guy going crazy for lack of water, and 
his poor ol’ mule, Dan, who had to listen to him 
going on and on about it.

Now that we’re down to our last few drops here 
in Sierra Madre, that song bubbled up to the top 
of my somewhat disordered mind. The Sons of 
the Pioneers recorded it and there are even a few 
YouTubes of it. 

“All day I face the barren waste without the taste 
of water,


Cool water.”

Yep, another dry winter, lack of rain and 
increased consumption. The groundwater levels 
just haven’t recovered and the Raymond Basin 
Watermaster has reduced our City’s groundwater 
pumping rights by almost 47%, as the Mountain 
Views News told us June 1st. 

There are those of us, like me, who think water is 
one of those things that’s one of my constitutional 
rights; it’s in there, isn’t it? Life, Liberty, the 
Pursuit of Happiness, twenty minute showers and 
lawns forevermore? 


“Old Dan and I with throats burned dry and souls 
that cry for water,

Cool water.”

I don’t think any of us are washing down our 
driveways anymore, and my first reaction to 
hearing that I’m going to have to use less water 
was typically dramatic. I flung myself in front of 
my rose bushes and shrieked, “I’ll give up bathing 
before I let my roses die!” Well, yeah, kind of 
over the top, but then my crafty side emerged…


“The nights are cool and I’m a fool, each star’s a 
pool of water,

Cool water.”

No, not sneaking out at midnight and watering… 
the annoyingly accurate water meter would 
give me away. My patient and long-suffering 
husband, the adorable John, and I decided on a 
few measures that would help us conserve water 
without giving up all of basic hygiene. We realized 
we could quit letting the water run! Woo hoo! 
You’re all thinking, “well, duh!” OK, have YOU 
quit letting the water run when you do dishes 
and brush your teeth? How about turning on the 
shower just long enough to get wet, turning it off, 
doing all the soaping and other little tasks, then 
turning it on just enough to rinse off! How ‘bout 
that!


“But with the dawn I’ll wake and yawn and carry 
on to water,

Cool water.”

Here’s another one, watering the tomatoes and all 
the stuff in pots on the porch and out in back: We 
got one of those nozzles that shuts off the water 
completely, then we turn the hose on and no 
waste between the turn on and the pots. OK, this 
next one’s a stinker: Be sure all the sprinklers are 
actually hitting the lawn and not watering the street. 


Now we’re gonna get really serious…. Toilets. 
Yep, the porcelain throne. Even with the water-
saving kind, we can still not use so much H2O. 
San Francisco has done it and lived to tell about 
it, only flush with #2. ‘Nuff said, you know what 
I mean!

“The shadows sway and seem to say tonight we 
pray for water, 

Cool water.


And way up there He’ll hear our prayer and show 
us where there’s water, 

Cool Water.”

And that wouldn’t hurt either, to ask for a little 
heavenly intervention in the water department. I 
guess, bottom line, is we all need to look around 
and see what we can do to save a drop here 
and a drop there. I’ll give up my extra washing 
machine rinse and that long shower for my roses 
and tomatoes…. Oh yeah, and for the rest of you 
guys here in thirsty Sierra Madre, too! We can do 
this, we’re hearty pioneer stock!


“Dan can’t you see that big green 
tree where the water’s runnin’ free 
and it’s waiting there for you and me.

Water, cool water.”

Editors note: The author sent this letter and asked 
that it be printed as a LTE.

Mayor and City Council Members:

I am the Block Party organizer in my 
neighborhood, and we’ve enjoyed 15 previous 
block parties on our street. 

I doubt that anyone in this room wouldn’t agree 
that block parties are a positive thing. They 
build great community spirit and get kids (and 
adults) out of the house and away from the 
computer and TV. As a bonus, statistics show 
that neighborhood security and safety increase 
when neighbors actually know each other. 

In order to block off a city street to have a block 
party in this town, a Temporary Use Permit 
(TUP) is required. In 1998 I paid $25 for our first 
block party TUP. It remained at $25 for several 
years, with a decrease to $17 for 2 years for some 
unknown reason, then back to $25, up to $35 in 
2004, $40 in ’06, $45 in ’07, and then increases 
over the next few years of $1, $2, $1, $1 and $2, 
bringing it up to the $52 I paid for last year – our 
2012 block party. 

 

Let me point out – that this is the exact same 
TUP that the 4th of July Committee gets to hold 
the parade and 2-day festivities every year. It’s the 
same TUP that the Wistaria Festival Committee 
gets to block off most of downtown and a number 
of other streets for more than 12 hours. It’s the 
same TUP that Alverno High School gets to allow 
an entire year’s worth of event rentals at the Villa. 
These are some pretty major “temporary use” 
situations compared to an 8-hour, single block 
street closure for a neighborhood block party.

Well, now…. That same TUP has more than 
doubled in price to $118! The same TUP that 
these huge events require, carries the same fee for 
my (and anyone else’s) block party. 

In addition to the TUP fee, the City requires me 
to provide a million dollars of liability insurance 
thru my homeowner’s insurance for the event. It 
didn’t used to result in any out-of–pocket expense 
for the first few years – but now it averages about 
$25 each time. And I spend about $100 on 
flyers, paper goods & utensils, ice, etc. Yes – my 
neighbors do chip in, but that’s not the point! 
Compared to these other major events, it just 
seems so inequitable for a block party to have 
the same permit fee. 

Incidentally, in paying for those 15 previous block 
party TUP’s… 3 of those years the barricades 
didn’t get dropped off when they supposed to, 
and I had to scramble to make phone calls to get 
someone at the City on Saturday morning to get 
me my barricades! 

And 2 of those years the S.M.P.D. had not been 
informed that we were having a block party. 

One of those times, the officer moved the 
barricades away from the Michillinda end of the 
block after we had already started setting up table 
& chairs, so now cars are driving thru, and me & 
a bunch of kids are in the middle of the street! I 
was jumping up & down, waving my hands and 
whistling, and the officer just ignored me! Then 
he had the nerve to ask me what I thought I was 
doing, and made me go inside and get the permit 
approval letter to prove to him that I actually had 
permission! I said “Do you think I went down to 
the city yard and helped myself to the barricades?” 
He also told me that I should have informed the 
P.D. that I was having a block party…. Funny – I 
thought that was covered by the TUP.

So… this is where YOU come in…. I am here to 
respectfully request that the City Council initiate 
a separate permit specifically for block parties, 
and attach a fee that is more equitable to the 
amount of effort that goes into processing it. Our 
City’s yard sale permit costs $14, which is a pretty 
good place to start. It makes sense that dropping 
off & picking up barricades would add to that fee, 
but certainly not in the $118 range!


(This is the part I didn’t get to read at the City 
Council meeting.)

I did some research and called the cities of 
Pasadena and Arcadia to see what their policies 
and fees are. In both cities, a block party permit 
is free. Both cities require the applicant to get 
approval signatures in advance from a certain 
percentage of their affected neighbors, to block 
off the street. In both cities, the resident picks 
up the barricades from the city yard themself 
and returns them on Monday. Arcadia requires 
a refundable deposit for this, Pasadena does not. 
Pasadena requires the homeowner to provide 
$300,000 liability insurance or purchase it from 
the city’s 3rd party agent. Arcadia does not 
require insurance from the applicant. 

I would be happy to call some other cities for 
information if it would help my case. But it’s not 
just about me & my block… I would hope that 
the City of Sierra Madre would want to encourage 
and promote these kinds of social gatherings, 
and make it easier on the average citizen to have 
one. So, I hope you will please take this into 
consideration.

Thank you very much.
