What happened
The council approved 13 routine items on consent, including a $470,250 grant and a contract with Oakland Private Industry Council for job training program administration.
The council held a public hearing on draft voting district boundary maps but took no vote. The city is switching from at-large elections where all voters choose all council members to district elections where residents only vote for their neighborhood representative.
Nine items were continued to future meetings, including proposals to ban new coal and petroleum coke storage facilities, prohibit landlords from rejecting tenants based on income source, and increase an environmental consulting contract by $500,000.
