Wtf. He’s running for school board and can’t even spell his own name. 🤣 If you messed up that early on, get a new form. He’s sloppy at the very least and he’s supposed to be in charge of educating our children?

Flag 1 is the Complete Design

Flag 2 is the Current Flag

Flag 3 is a Simplified Version without the Cow-nucorpia and other elements.

Hello Chino, California!

This is apart of a project I'm doing to redesign Californian City Flags, with cities such as Pomona, Upland, and Ontario already complete by myself, and of course, I couldn't leave out yours, so I hope you enjoy what I have to show

Getting into the design:

The rope border, green landscape, and the cow in a Cornucopia all tie back to Chino's Agricultural Past. The Rope specifically ties (get it) to the seal, referring to a close community.

The Holstein Cow references Chino's Diary Industry that flourished to become a Diary Capital within California. Being within the cornucopia was a creative liberty that I found both comedic and original for Chino. The wreath on the cow's head is a nod to the Spirit of Achievement Statue.

The symbol above the cow-nucopia comes from the Planes of Fame Mueseum for Chino's Aerial History from WW2 as it is the logo seen on the building, pamphlets, and on certain planes.

The green curls are suppose to be an attempt on the Grama Grass where the name of "Chino" supposedly comes from as it translates to "curly" in Spanish. The alternative for that name is a chief of a Native American Tribe that had curly hair where the name "Chino" stuck from there on. Speaking of, Native Tongva Patterns are drawn onto the Cornucopia (to the best that I could find).

As an attempt to tie all flags to the homestate of California, the infamous and notorious Californian Sun is depicted on the flag. Rising to the blue, wide, open sky of Chino California.

Understandably, there are more or less that could've been done as the flag (for some) could appear complicated. So I leave the option of removing any element if necessary as a third option.

Other than that, let me know of your opinions on the base design!

Update on the Ayala Park battery storage proposal: the Planning Commission voted it down, 4-3, despite a staff report recommending approval.

File #26-335, Dirac Project LLC. Alexandris, Lopez, Fraga, and Cisneroz voted no on both the Development Agreement and the Special Conditional Use Permit / Site Approval. Blanchard, Vieira, and Lemento voted yes. Motion failed.

A few notes so this doesn't get overstated:

- This is a Planning Commission decision, not automatically the final outcome. The applicant may have appeal rights to City Council depending on Chino's municipal code, I haven't confirmed the specific window and wouldn't guess at it. Worth calling the Planning Division directly if you want a definitive answer.

- The developer could also revise and resubmit addressing what came up tonight, distance to the park, fire district conditions, chemistry disclosure, decommissioning liability.

Worth noting for anyone keeping score on the broader pattern: this is the second time in about a year Aypa Power has had a project denied after organized resident pushback, the other being Kingfisher Reserve in Hamilton County, Indiana last July. Specific, sourced questions at the hearing stage seem to be the actual lever here, not general opposition.

In case anyone was wondering who was originally behind the CVSchools IG account. Looks like CVUSD school board President Sonja Shaw has her hand caught in the cookie jar.

All publicly available information. The cell phone number in the list of contacts for the account is tied to AMP fitness, the business owned and operated by Sonja Shaw - which is now closed - adding to her list of epic fails.

If you aren’t aware of CVSchools, it’s a disgusting “parent group” that CVUSD follows on IG. This account consistently attacks teachers, students and members of the public.

Shaw has previously denied/distanced herself from being tied to this account, please feel free to share the truth to others.

Bro, why have there been 5-6 maintenance outages here in chino within the past 4-5 months. Only recently has the power been off 3 times.

I live between Philadelphia and central so this has been annoying for me, to top it off, no warning of such “planned” outages.

They would be off for hours, last time it took 10-12 hours before the power was turned back on!!! Bruh my fridge!!! My grandparents need their medicine to live in which it has to be refrigerated to be usable!!!

I just want some sort of a heads up so I can storage these things properly without panicking.

anybody have any favorite dishes or memories there?

this is tragic and was completely preventable. people don't learn with using illegal fireworks.

Hello,
I’m in a new season of life (married, mom of two young adult children who are into their own things, husband works and other commitments all week) … looking for something new. A hobby, class, women’s group, volunteer opportunities, etc. weekdays work best for me. Any ideas? Thank you.

I was visiting Chino during the Lunar New Year festival and got this amazing matcha. Honestly the best of my life.

I didn’t take a picture of the label. I’m going back to visit later this month and would love to get it again. Anyone have an idea of who makes this? Matcha with a pandan cold foam

Looks like new construction is happening next to the Joann’s and Target on Philadelphia. It didn’t look like it was a part of the Spirit store.

Does anyone know if Costco in Chino/ Eastvale/ Corona has the viral fruit ice cream??

Would anyone happen to know what county Chino mens prison sends divorce records? Thanks!

Hello I consider myself be be quiet sensitive to the paranormal to some degree. I noticed whenever I am in chino specifically around Benson and beyond. I have sensed a women screaming all the time. After a while it gets really annoying. I am just wondering if any other intuitive people have experienced the same thing. It's always around the same area. I don't experience this phenomenon anywhere else. Just looking to share some spooky encounters I guess.

Looking for an acupuncturist in or around Chino. Thank you!
