And uh with that, uh there is a mayor's report.

My report is on the table over there if you'd like um like a copy, and there's also in front of the council a copy.

Um I can I did a kind of condensed version of my report.

So um just to touch on a couple items.

So Monterey Salinas Transit Agency, uh recent regional agency meeting highlighted uh major local governments developments, including Monterey Salinas Transit adopting ordinance 2026 statue one to establish border-facing camera enforcement for transit lanes and uh over at Monterey One Water.

Uh they uh they it was pretty much common uh household items.

They had uh had talks spoken on um Monterey One Water Advanced Infrastructure and Chemical Supply Contracts, and over at Ambard, uh they've ratified a new memorandum of understanding with their local union 521 through 2029, and all those can be all this information is in the meeting notes there at the table under the mayor's report.

Um also uh the Monterey County Mayor's Association bat September 4th and Greenfield to address community initiatives and key state legislative updates.

So that's in your packet.

And um also legislative update.

Thank you, Mayor.

Um just wanted to update you on aligning I brought to your attention at previous meetings, which is the D Cell facility, continues to be offline.

I have had quite a few communications with uh Spencer Bartanian, the uh director of operations for the Central Coast section.

And um Calam is working closely with the Division of Drinking Water to be able to satisfy these new regulations, permit conditions that were imposed upon them.

Um and um it looks like they have they have come to an agreement that Division of Drinking Water will issue a letter which will constitute a kind of waiver of those conditions.

So I will keep you updated, but I don't have a definitive date that the D Cell facility moved back online yet.

Um and then one of the few other things, MST closures.

The longest closure that I've been sort of warning you about is happening on Sunday, and it's gonna be essentially they call it a 72-hour closure, but it goes from a 72 cloud 72-hour closure straight into a night closure.

So it's really more like I don't know, 86 hours something, but it is from Sunday at about 7 p.m.

until Thursday morning at 7 a.m.

And that is the section of playa between California and Belmonte that will be closed during that time.

And they will provide you know detour signage and so on.

Um they've been pretty good about notifying the public.

Um they've notified everybody, all the businesses with the shopping center and neighboring impacted residences, although there are not that many in that area.

Um cities coming right up.
