17 Investigation: Man says neighbor illegally dumping paint (Chan.17 KGET)
We also called the Bakersfield City Fire Department multiple times, but were told no one was coming out. So 17 News contacted City Councilman Rudy Salas in whose district the paint was dumped. "When someone is telling you they aren't going to come out and they're not going to deal with the situation, that's unacceptable," said Salas.
Salas called City Manager Alan Tandy and minutes later the fire department showed up with their Hazmat crews to determine if this spill is hazardous.

Just who are Bakersfield's 100K newcomers that census reported?
While walking door-to-door or visiting elementary and junior high classrooms, "you can see how the demographics have been changing in Bakersfield," he said, referring to the rising Hispanic population. As more of the young Hispanics move into the workforce and come of voting age, "obviously, that's going to shake up the landscape quite a bit," Salas said.
