What happened

The council approved 14 routine items on consent, including a $3.4 million contract to replace aging sewer pipes and a $600,000 amendment for law firm services defending Point Molate development.

The council updated the city's building code to match 2019 state standards, approved 5-1 with Nat Bates voting no. One resident spoke during public comment on this item. The update brings Richmond into compliance with current state requirements.

A mid-year budget adjustment for the 2019-20 budget was also approved 5-1, with Nat Bates again voting no and Eduardo Martinez abstaining on both items. These routine adjustments help ensure city departments have adequate funding through the fiscal year.
