Meeting Transcript

Good afternoon, and thank you for joining our special city council meeting of October third, twenty twenty-five. We're holding meetings in a hybrid format with both in-person and virtual participation. Speaker cards are located at the back table in council chambers and must be turned in to the city clerk here at the dais. Please be sure to indicate the agenda item number which you wish to speak on. Attendees who have joined us by Zoom will be called to speak after in public comments have been given. Detailed instructions for public comment will be provided on the screen when the time for public comment begins.org. Written comments are not read aloud but are made part of the final meeting record. And I'll now turn it over to our city clerk to call the roll. Here. Councilmember G. Present. Council Member Howard. Here. Council Member Padilla. Council Member Starkin. Here. Vice Mayor Aiken. Here, Mayor Martinez Ayas. Here. Thank you. Great. And with that, we'll move on to our item three, which is AB two requests and considerations. Item three is a procedural item for the purpose of identifying and confirming if any council members wish to participate in the meeting remotely and have not already provided a remote location listed on the agenda. And we have no council members exercising this today, so we'll move on now to item number four, which is public comment. And we'll take public comment on the closed session item or on topics that are not listed on today's agenda. We welcome speakers to provide public comment, but please be advised this is a limited public forum. As such, speakers will be must address matters within the subject matter jurisdiction of the city. If speakers do not, they will be warned, and if they continue to disregard city rules, their opportunity to speak will be limited. If you're attending in person, please fill out a speaker card and submit it to the city clerk here at the dais. And if you're attending virtually, feel free to raise your hand on Zoom at this time, or press star nine if you've joined by phone. Once public comment has begun, no additional speakers will be allowed to queue up to speak. And I'll now turn things over to our city clerk to facilitate public comment. So I'll look to our Zoom attendees. If you'd like to give a public comment this afternoon, please go ahead and raise your hand to speak. Seeing none, we'll conclude public comment, Mayor. Back to you. Thank you, City Clerk. We'll move on to item five, the closed session or the city council will now convene to close session regarding public employee appointment as identified on the agenda. As there will be no reportable action on this item, the meeting will be adjourned immediately following the closed session. We thank you for joining us, and our next city council meeting is scheduled for Monday, October thirteenth, twenty twenty five, at six o'clock. Wish you all a great weekend ahead. Thank you. Yes, yes, yes. Yes.
