Note-taking by Judy Winters

The Council approved Option A of the Paid Parking Plan(5-2) launching in 2025 & fully implemented by 2025. It excludes Delano and will be reviewed in 2028. Stricter rules on encampments faced opposition over concerns of criminalizing homelessness but the city promised assistance.

Note-taking by Wyatt Barmann

Discussion occurred regarding amending the 2013 anti-camping ordinance, including reducing fines & mandating police involvement in relocating the unhoused to shelters like the MAC. Despite passionate public opposition & hours of debate, the amendment was approved 4-3.
