What happened
The council approved 6 routine items on consent, including a $200,000 increase to the Clorox training contract to serve 75 more participants.
A proposal to create a task force for planning the shoreline area between the Chevron Refinery and landfill was rejected. The measure failed with Viramontes voting no and several council members abstaining or absent.
The council approved sending a commitment letter to secure a $500,000 grant from the Valley Foundation to expand the Police Activities League youth center at 2200 Macdonald Avenue. The council also passed a resolution urging the Governor to fully fund the Public Library Foundation.
A temporary 45-day ban on new crematoriums was approved, with the possibility of extending it for up to 3 years. This gives the city time to study whether to change its rules on crematorium permits.
Discussion of council meeting rules and procedures was continued to a future meeting.
