COUNCIL Continued from page A1 "Historically we've been dealing with mosquitos, a variety of different species, there are about thirty different species in Fresno County," he said. Mulligan also emphasized that a new type of mosquito has made its way to the area. "We now had a new problem in 2013, a new mosquito was introduced into California, it was a tropical mosquito," he said. "It was found in areas through- out the world that had high humidity.

As they proceeded through the parking lot, they said the man exited his vehicle and, standing by his car door, held up what appeared to be a $100 bill while motioning them to come over to his vehicle. The two students ignored the sub- ject and continued walking northbound on North Alta Avenue. That’s when they say the subject got back into his vehicle and exited the parking lot, also northbound on North Alta Avenue. He reportedly passed the two girls slowly before continuing northbound. One of the girls called her parents as the two took a side street to evade the subject. The male subject was described as being 25-30 years old with a dark com- plexion. He was also believed to be wearing some sort of headdress. The vehicle he was driving was described as an older, dark colored vehicle. Anyone with information regard- ing this incident is encouraged to con- tact the Dinuba Police Department at (559) 591-5911.

DISTRICT Continued from page A2 nal control oversight it provides. The District funds and their earn- ings will be utilized over time to support organizations provid- ing services involved in obesity and diabe- tes as well as mental health. This focus resulted from a community health needs assess- ment conducted for the district and two focus groups of local citizens. The District chose to focus on a lim- ited number of health issues that are cur- rently not met or only partially met. In addition to provid- ing this funding for the community the district acted several years ago to refund its general ob- ligation bonds related to previous construc- tion projects. That ef- fort resulted in a $2.8 million saving for tax- payers by reducing the interest cost related to the bonds.
