[13:40] Thank you for joining us for the
[13:41] September 29th special meeting of this
[13:44] Fortuna City Council. If you'll silence
[13:47] your electronic devices and join me for
[13:49] the pledge of allegiance, we'll start
[13:51] the meeting.
[13:55] I pledge algiance to the flag of the
[13:58] United States of America and to the
[14:00] republic for which it stands. One nation
[14:04] under God, indivisible, with liberty and
[14:07] justice for all.
[14:09] >> Thank you.
[14:12] Can we get a roll call?
[14:15] >> Council member Conley
[14:16] >> present.
[14:19] >> Council member Diaz
[14:20] >> here. Council member Stevens
[14:23] >> here.
[14:24] >> Mayor Prom Trent
[14:26] >> here.
[14:27] >> And Mayor Johnson
[14:28] >> here.
[14:29] >> Thank you.
[14:30] Our first item this evening
[14:33] is oral comments from the public and we
[14:37] do have a letter from the stores
[14:40] uh company and their letter is going to
[14:44] be in the record. It's noted on the
[14:46] agenda
[14:48] and if there are any oral comments for
[14:50] items not on the agenda this evening.
[14:55] And I see none.
[14:58] So, we'll move on to city council
[15:00] business.
[15:14] Is there someone online?
[15:22] » Okay. Well, anyway, our first item of
[15:24] business is the consideration of an
[15:27] urgency ordinance creating temporary
[15:30] moratorum on rent increases on mobile
[15:33] home spaces in the city of Fortuna.
[15:49] All right. Thank you, mayor and council
[15:51] members. This evening, as directed by
[15:53] your city council, staff have brought an
[15:56] urgency ordinance creating a temporary
[15:58] moratorum on rent increases on mobile
[16:01] home spaces in the city of Fortuna.
[16:05] Just as a reminder of how we came to be
[16:08] here, here is a timeline of events. In
[16:11] early July, the city council began
[16:13] receiving communication from Royal Crest
[16:16] mobile home residents about unaffordable
[16:18] mobile home space rent increases. On
[16:20] July 17th, city staff met with residents
[16:23] of Royal Crest to hear their concerns
[16:25] about increasingly unaffordable rent
[16:27] increases.
[16:29] July 21st, uh, Save Our Seniors made
[16:32] public comment um, and made a request
[16:35] for mobile home rent stabilization
[16:38] ordinance at the Fortuna City Council
[16:40] meeting that day. The city council
[16:43] during future agenda items directed
[16:45] staff to return with information on the
[16:47] rent stabilization ordinance. On August
[16:50] 28th, city staff met with
[16:52] representatives from stores management.
[16:57] On September 15th, the city council held
[16:59] a study session on mobile home rent
[17:01] stabilization and city council directed
[17:04] staff to return with a temporary
[17:05] moratorum on rent increases on mobile
[17:08] home spaces. September 24th, the city
[17:11] council held a close session due to
[17:13] significant exposure to litigation due
[17:15] to assertions by the owners of Royal
[17:17] Crest mobile estates. And today,
[17:20] September 29th, the city council is set
[17:22] to review urgency ordinance creating a
[17:24] temporary moratorium on rent increases
[17:26] on mobile home spaces.
[17:32] The purpose of an urg urgency ordinance
[17:34] is to place a temporary moratorium on
[17:36] rent increases on mobile home spaces to
[17:39] preserve housing status for vulnerable
[17:41] populations and affordable housing for
[17:43] the community while staff further
[17:45] investigate and develop a permanent
[17:48] mobile home rent stabilization ordinance
[17:50] temporarily pausing rent increases on
[17:53] mobile home spaces until April 30th,
[17:55] 2026 as stated in the ordinance or the
[17:58] effective date of a mobile home Rent
[18:00] stabilization ordinance will prevent an
[18:02] undue rush on rent increases on mobile
[18:04] home spaces before the effective date of
[18:06] an ordinance that will be designed to
[18:09] protect mobile home space tenants. Such
[18:12] rush increases could defeat the purpose
[18:14] of rent stabilization.
[18:16] >> I just got a text that said there's no
[18:19] um sound on Zoom.
[18:25] » Zoom.
[18:26] >> No sound on Zoom.
[18:26] >> Looks like the city may be on mute.
[18:33] Hold for intermission.
[18:44] » Do we
[18:45] >> They also
[18:47] >> they chatted on Zoom. Can they hear us
[18:48] now?
[18:50] >> Yes,
[18:50] >> they can hear us now. Okay, great. Okay,
[18:52] I'm going to continue on in the
[18:54] presentation because we're just at the
[18:55] purpose. Um, so, uh, re rushed rent
[18:59] increases from property owners could
[19:01] defeat the purpose of a rent
[19:02] stabilization ordinance or defer its
[19:05] benefits for years.
[19:09] Adoption of this ordinance on an urgency
[19:12] basis is necessary to preserve the
[19:14] public peace, health, and safety of the
[19:16] residents, businesses, and property
[19:17] owners of the city. The findings that
[19:20] constitute the basis for the urgency and
[19:23] the need for a temporary moratorum
[19:25] include all of the items listed on the
[19:27] slides. Uh but a few of them are mobile
[19:29] home parks provide an important
[19:31] alternative form of housing. A
[19:34] significant majority of the residents of
[19:36] mobile home parks in the city are older
[19:38] individuals or couple living on fixed
[19:40] income. Nearly all mobile home park
[19:43] residents own and occupy their mobile
[19:45] home and have made a st a substantial
[19:48] investment to live in the mobile home
[19:49] park. And residents of a mobile home
[19:52] park have very limited mobility due to
[19:54] the impracticality of relocating a
[19:56] mobile home.
[20:04] A number of residents of mobile home of
[20:07] mobile home parks in the city have
[20:09] expressed the concern that they could
[20:10] become homeless if mobile home park
[20:12] owners continue to impose significant
[20:14] rent increases.
[20:16] Temporarily pausing space rent increases
[20:19] will prevent again rush space rent
[20:21] increases before adoption of regulations
[20:23] to stabilize mobile home space rents.
[20:27] Uh for these reasons, an urgency urgency
[20:30] ordinance can be adopted.
[20:34] Tonight, your city council will consider
[20:36] an urgency ordinance creating a
[20:37] temporary moratorium on rent increases
[20:39] on mobile home spaces in the city of
[20:41] Fortuna. If the moratorum on mobile home
[20:44] space rent increases adopted this
[20:46] evening, staff will return before April
[20:49] 30th, 2026 with a draft mobile home rent
[20:52] stabilization ordinance.
[20:56] So, your recommended action tonight is
[20:58] to approve the emer emergency ordinance
[21:00] that's in your packet creating a
[21:02] temporary moratorium on rent increases
[21:04] on mobile home spaces in the city of
[21:07] Fortuna until April 30th, 2026 or the
[21:10] effective date of a permanent mobile
[21:12] home rent stabilization ordinance and a
[21:15] determination of exemption of the
[21:17] urgency ordinance from SQA. And I'd be
[21:19] happy to answer any questions.
[21:23] >> Okay. Does any
[21:25] of the council members have a question
[21:27] regarding this?
[21:30] Well, we'll open this item for public
[21:33] comment and
[21:49] » my name is Holland. I want to talk about
[21:52] equity.
[21:53] the very thing seniors have worked their
[21:55] whole lives for. In mobile home parks,
[21:58] base rent is directly tied to home
[22:00] value. That is devastating for seniors
[22:03] on fixed incomes
[22:05] who cannot replace that lost value. At
[22:08] Royal Crest, rents have risen almost
[22:11] 100%.
[22:14] since 2012, outpacing inflation,
[22:18] stripping residents of tens of thousands
[22:20] of dollars in equity. Imagine saving for
[22:23] decades only to see the value of your
[22:26] home eroded in a few short years. Not
[22:29] because of the market, because of
[22:31] unchecked rent increases.
[22:34] The temporary moratorum on rent
[22:36] increases you are considering tonight
[22:38] fixes this temporarily while ensuring
[22:41] fairness that protects everyone. Council
[22:45] members,
[22:46] this is about dignity. Seniors should
[22:49] not be forced to choose between heat,
[22:52] medicine, and keeping their homes. This
[22:55] pause pervers preserves stability while
[22:58] you finalize a fair, permanent,
[23:01] enforcable framework. I respectfully ask
[23:04] you to adopt the temporary moratorium on
[23:06] rent increases, including no pass
[23:09] through owner expenses, tonight. Thank
[23:12] you very much.
[23:19] Good evening, mayor and council members.
[23:21] My name is Deborah Thomas and I live at
[23:23] the Royal Crest Mobile Home Estates.
[23:26] We've heard about temporary rent
[23:27] assistant programs like MH,
[23:31] but these are band-aids on a deep wound.
[23:34] They cover only a handful of residents
[23:36] at most, about 10 out of the over 200
[23:39] families. And even then, there is likely
[23:41] no more than five that could qualify in
[23:44] Royal Crest and only for a short time.
[23:46] The majority remain remain unprotected,
[23:49] still subject to unaffordable increases.
[23:52] In addition, for those who do not
[23:54] qualify for those unattainable funding
[23:56] resources,
[23:58] are forced to vacate their homes,
[24:00] corporations like stores for their
[24:03] benefit by obtaining their homes and
[24:05] reselling them for a higher profit. We
[24:08] have one they just got that they're
[24:10] selling for $210,000.
[24:13] >> These programs do not stop the root
[24:16] problem, skyrocketing rents. They leave
[24:18] us scrambling for aid while park owners
[24:21] continue to raise rents unchecked.
[24:24] Worse, they depend on outside funding
[24:26] that can vanish at any time. That's not
[24:28] stability. That's false hope. the
[24:30] temporary moratorum on rent increases
[24:33] before you allow for development of an
[24:36] RSO. It's systematic, enforcable, and
[24:40] fair. It provides certainty for
[24:42] residents and ensures owners continue to
[24:44] receive a fair return. It prevents race
[24:47] to rise rent hikes that could otherwise
[24:51] occur before permanent rules are
[24:53] finalized. We don't need temporary
[24:55] charity. We need structural fairness.
[24:58] and tonight you can provide it. I
[25:00] respectfully ask you to adopt the
[25:02] temporary moratorum on rent increase
[25:04] including the no pass through owner
[25:06] expenses tonight. Thank you.
[25:15] So my name is Lana Craig and I am a
[25:18] Royal Crest resident.
[25:21] Thank you all for
[25:25] going this far with us. the board
[25:28] members,
[25:30] Amy Nelson, Amy Nilson especially for uh
[25:33] doing all the research and time
[25:36] consuming meetings and so forth. Thank
[25:38] you for attorney plots for being here
[25:41] and uh Millie
[25:43] in place of Siana. Thank you all. We
[25:47] know you are listening and hearing us
[25:49] and we appreciate you for letting us
[25:51] speak. Our SOS group is more than a few
[25:55] elders that you see here. The SOS group
[25:58] stands for seniors in Fortuna and really
[26:01] throughout America who are being forced
[26:03] out of their homes in these difficult
[26:05] times and perhaps ending up on the
[26:08] street or lost in some crowded shelter.
[26:12] The short moratorum and the RSO will
[26:15] recoup the last four years will not
[26:18] recoup the last four years of over 20%
[26:20] rent increases but it will be a large
[26:23] welcome and most appreciated re respit
[26:27] to the gnawing constant fear of this
[26:29] happening again.
[26:32] As the roads diverge, it's up to each of
[26:34] us which road we choose.
[26:37] We hope you will choose the moratorum
[26:40] and vote yes for the RSO when that time
[26:42] comes. Thank you for your time, your
[26:45] energy, your efforts and again thank you
[26:49] Amy Nilson for all your meetings and
[26:52] research. Thank you.
[26:54] >> Thank you.
[27:00] » This is my neighbor Rosemary Weisner.
[27:03] She's 94.
[27:04] um she couldn't be here because like so
[27:07] many of the the people at the park,
[27:09] they're disabled and old and quite
[27:12] frankly she's getting ready for bed
[27:13] right now. She said, "I don't do
[27:15] anything after 4 o'clock. I don't go
[27:16] anywhere. Just wanted you to meet her."
[27:19] Um is there anybody here that can I ask
[27:22] that is uh unconvinced about how they're
[27:25] going to vote today?
[27:28] Do you need me to tell you more is what
[27:29] I'm asking you.
[27:31] Are you sure? Okay. Thank you, Mr.
[27:34] Stevens, for replying to me. I I
[27:36] appreciate it. My name is Ann Lton
[27:37] again. Thank you so much.
[27:39] >> I am a resident.
[27:47] » Uh good evening, mayor and council
[27:49] members. My name is Ricardo and I live
[27:51] at Royal Crest. You've heard the
[27:53] argument that a moratorum, I mean,
[27:55] sorry, a memorandum of understanding
[27:58] could be a solution. But let's be
[28:00] honest, anou is a promise. A rent
[28:03] stabilization ordinance is protection.
[28:06] Anouou can be written rewritten at any
[28:09] time by the park owner. It has no
[28:11] enforcement mechanism. It does not
[28:14] guarantee caps or on increases. Nor does
[28:17] it put limits on pass through charges or
[28:20] a restriction on one increase of one
[28:23] increase per year. In short, it leaves
[28:25] all the power in the hands of the very
[28:27] people who have already raised rents
[28:30] without restraint. Our homes cannot be
[28:32] moved. We cannot shop around for a
[28:35] better deal. Without a binding law, we
[28:38] have no stability, no security, and no
[28:40] recourse. Our RSO, even a temporary
[28:44] moratorum leading to one, creates
[28:47] balance and ensures fair return for
[28:49] owners, but stability for residents. It
[28:53] gives this council, not out of town
[28:55] corporations, the authority to safeguard
[28:59] Fortuna seniors and families. Plea,
[29:02] please don't give us a promise. Give us
[29:04] protection. Please don't give us a
[29:07] handshake. Give us a law. I respectfully
[29:10] ask you to adopt the temporary moratorum
[29:13] on rent increases, including no pass
[29:15] through owner expenses, tonight. Thank
[29:19] you.
[29:19] >> Thank you.
[29:28] Good evening, mayor and council members.
[29:31] Thank you for your service here tonight.
[29:34] My name is Ron Dur and I live at Royal
[29:36] Crust Mobile Estates.
[29:38] Tonight, I urge you to take the most
[29:40] balanced and responsible step available,
[29:44] a temporary moratorum
[29:48] on rent increases.
[29:51] This pause is narrow, timelimited, and
[29:54] specifically designed to protect
[29:56] vulnerable seniors and families while
[29:59] you complete the thoughtful work of
[30:02] establishing long-term rent
[30:04] stabilization ordinance.
[30:06] Other communities like Sonoma County in
[30:09] 2023
[30:11] did exactly this. They paused rent hikes
[30:14] while they worked on permanent on a
[30:17] permanent framework. The result was a
[30:21] breathing room period. No one was forced
[30:24] out during
[30:27] the the policy process
[30:30] and no lastm minute rent spikes
[30:33] undermined the future ordinance.
[30:36] The proposal before you is equally
[30:39] balanced. It sunsets by April 30th, 2026
[30:43] or sooner if a rent stabilization
[30:46] ordinance is adopted.
[30:48] This protects both residents and owners.
[30:52] So, council members, this moratorum is
[30:54] not radical. It is careful, legal, and
[30:58] financially planned for. It's a seat
[31:01] belt while you finish building the car.
[31:04] I respectfully ask you to adopt the
[31:06] temporary moratorium rent increases
[31:08] tonight. And as a side note, I was
[31:11] helping pass out notices for this
[31:13] meeting tonight. And I noticed from this
[31:16] meeting to the meeting before,
[31:19] uh there was one household that told me
[31:22] that they were trying to stay in that
[31:24] stores was foreclosing on them and that
[31:27] they were a little bit behind on rent.
[31:29] They kept trying to make the payments.
[31:31] That house is empty. Uh, as of when I
[31:34] posted the notice, uh, there was another
[31:37] fellow uh, 82 year old fell named Phil.
[31:40] Lived about a half block up the Crest
[31:42] Drive there. He lived there quite a few
[31:45] years. And when I talked to him, he had
[31:48] trouble paying the rent and making
[31:50] medical uh, expenses. And the coroner
[31:53] picked him up uh, midweek.
[31:57] So, uh, there are people that are
[31:59] actually having to choose between
[32:01] possible medical operations or paying a
[32:04] rent, buying food or paying a rent,
[32:07] getting their doggy taken care of with
[32:09] the pet place or paying a rent. So, this
[32:12] is this is critical to a lot of people
[32:13] living here, particularly the long term
[32:16] that thought they moved in, rent was
[32:17] great, and they live here forever. Well,
[32:19] stores just replaces them with new
[32:21] people that look like they got plenty of
[32:22] money to ask them 20 years from now.
[32:25] And, you know, I've had lots of money in
[32:26] my life, too. like you people, some of
[32:28] you do. And I ended up in stores
[32:31] management. So things change in our
[32:33] lives. So just keep watching out for
[32:35] your local voters and citizens. We
[32:37] appreciate it very much. Thank you.
[32:40] >> Can I talk twice?
[32:45] » I just want you to know that they evict
[32:48] you. You can't pay your rent.
[32:50] >> Okay.
[32:50] >> And they take your house.
[32:51] >> Okay.
[32:53] You you brought that up earlier.
[32:55] >> You can't sell it because the rent
[32:58] Mayor, I'd like to point out that you
[33:00] have two online public commenters.
[33:02] >> Okay. Well, let's let's bring them on.
[33:06] >> Millie, will you un let me know who
[33:08] you're unmuting.
[33:11] » Andrew, you are you will be unmuted and
[33:14] you can go ahead. You will have three
[33:16] minutes.
[33:19] » Okay. Thank you. Um, yeah. So, I've been
[33:22] there in person to to speak in favor of
[33:25] the rent stabilization ordinance, and
[33:28] now I'm coming to speak in favor of the
[33:30] temporary uh moratorium on rent
[33:32] increases. Um, thank you all for the
[33:36] time that you're devoting to this, for
[33:38] taking it seriously, for hearing
[33:40] everybody out tonight. Um, I think it's
[33:42] wonderful that Royal Press seniors have
[33:44] got this far. I applaud them for all the
[33:47] research that they've done that they've
[33:48] presented to you guys and um
[33:53] and I think now it's it's clear you guys
[33:56] have a choice and you can choose now to
[33:58] adopt the moratorum on rent increases
[34:01] and grant material benefit to seniors
[34:04] and your very own community. And I think
[34:07] not adopting it would be
[34:11] uh affirming
[34:16] property rights of billionaire giants
[34:18] who don't even live in the community and
[34:20] who are just ex uh who are uh pulling
[34:23] out money from the community uh millions
[34:26] of dollars a year um at the expense of uh senior citizens. So please
[34:34] um make the right choice tonight. Thank
[34:36] you.
[34:38] >> Thank you.
[34:44] Lev, you're unmuted. You can go ahead.
[34:52] » Hello, my name is Lev. I'm calling in
[34:55] from Arcada. I'm a member of Humble
[34:57] Tenants Union, fighting on behalf of
[34:58] renters and mobile homeowners throughout
[35:00] the county. I want to address SOS. The
[35:03] level of self-organization and
[35:05] mobilization you all have demonstrated
[35:07] is so, so impressive. I want you to know
[35:10] that you've shown real power. The
[35:12] research you all have shared has been
[35:13] super thorough and informative. I've
[35:16] been humbled by your level of efficacy
[35:18] and I feel grateful that I had the
[35:20] chance to meet several of you uh when I
[35:22] spoke a few weeks ago. City council, I
[35:26] think the seniors who are here have said
[35:27] it best. I won't belabor the arguments
[35:30] that others have already made so
[35:31] eloquently. I think you know what is the
[35:34] right thing to do. Please pass the
[35:35] moratorum and do the right thing for
[35:37] hundreds of your constituents. Thank
[35:39] you.
[35:43] » Billy, can you unmute Michelle Bushnell?
[35:46] Michelle, you can speak.
[35:49] >> Can I confirm you guys can hear me?
[35:51] >> We can hear you.
[35:52] >> Okay, thank you. Um, I just want to
[35:54] address uh the council and um tell you
[35:57] guys that I know that you have had a lot
[36:01] um to do with this and that you guys
[36:04] have done your homework and have
[36:06] listened to your constituents. To Amy,
[36:08] the um the city manager, you have done
[36:11] so much investigating and done so many
[36:14] meetings and really thoroughly worked
[36:16] through the process. It's very scary for people when they, you know, own
[36:22] their home and they get into a space and
[36:24] they think that space is going to be set
[36:26] or have small increases. I know that
[36:28] this is a hard decision for the council,
[36:30] but it's terrifying for your senior
[36:32] community that lives at Royal Crest. And
[36:35] I'm just um grateful that you all did
[36:37] your investigating and look forward to
[36:39] your decision this evening. Thank you.
[36:46] » Dan C, you will be unmuted and you will
[36:50] be able to speak.
[36:54] There you go. Oh, you had it.
[37:06] Okay. I think I unmuted while you
[37:08] unmuted and it muted. Um, I'm learning
[37:12] how to use Zoom uh through a bunch of
[37:15] different platforms, but I'm think I
[37:18] want to thank whoever with it made this
[37:20] available. I think it's an essential
[37:21] part of government to um allow people to
[37:26] participate without driving or if
[37:29] they're not feeling well or anything
[37:31] else. Um,
[37:34] and tonight, um, uh, you're actually
[37:39] competing with a lot of other events.
[37:42] So, I'm impressed that there is a big
[37:45] turnout in person and
[37:50] also that you took the time to hear
[37:53] everybody, you should have in person.
[37:54] And those of us were speaking up online.
[37:58] um while they debate
[38:02] uh world peace or throw out a proposal
[38:04] that's unilateral, you're being asked to
[38:09] um on a local microlo level to affect
[38:13] people's lives directly where you live.
[38:16] And the
[38:19] crime of
[38:21] almost displacement of people who are
[38:24] owners of their homes and senior in this
[38:26] point of life is something that um that
[38:31] it needs to and is being addressed here
[38:33] and it's grateful that
[38:37] you're likely to listen to. Um, I
[38:41] realized who was here when I used Zoom
[38:43] that and I'm really glad Michelle spoke
[38:45] so eloquently in representing
[38:48] um not only her constituents but her
[38:52] actual family and uh it's uh it's an
[38:57] easy decision.
[38:59] It should go the right way and I have
[39:03] complete confidence that you will
[39:07] represent your constituents morality and
[39:11] public decency by doing the right thing
[39:14] and I'm so happy to participate in this
[39:17] manner.
[39:19] >> Thank you.
[39:23] Is that our
[39:26] >> That's the end of the online public
[39:28] comment
[39:28] >> and we're we've reached the end of the
[39:32] closing public comment for in person and
[39:36] at this time we're at a point of a
[39:39] motion or not a motion. Make a motion to
[39:42] approve an urgency ordinance creating a
[39:44] temporary moratorium on rent increases
[39:46] on mobile home spaces in the city of
[39:48] Fortuna until April 30th, 2026 or
[39:51] effective date of a mobile home rent
[39:52] stabilization ordinance and
[39:54] determination of an exemption of the
[39:55] urgency ordinance from the California
[39:57] Environmental Quality Act.
[39:59] >> Second.
[40:01] >> Council member Connley, can I just
[40:02] confirm that that's reading by title
[40:04] only as well
[40:05] >> and read by title only?
[40:07] >> Thank you. And can I make a comment
[40:09] before we vote?
[40:11] >> What's that?
[40:11] >> I was just wondering if I could make a
[40:12] comment before we vote.
[40:14] >> Yeah.
[40:14] >> I just wanted to say that uh I think I'm
[40:17] probably inclined not to vote for the
[40:19] moratorum. Just want to reiterate that
[40:21] it's not because I don't sympathize with
[40:24] all the seniors. I think they are
[40:26] fighting for their livelihood and their
[40:28] quality of life and everything. I think
[40:30] just the process. I would have liked to
[40:32] have seen a good faith effort to try and
[40:34] negotiate with the management company. I
[40:36] know you guys have probably a good
[40:38] reason to be skeptical of whether that
[40:40] would
[40:42] >> well
[40:47] in any case um so I think my decision is
[40:50] not not based on you know that but more
[40:53] the process and not at least giving them
[40:56] the you know the opportunity to
[40:58] negotiate.
[41:03] » Okay. Okay. Well, we do have a motion
[41:06] >> and a second before us. So, all in
[41:10] favor,
[41:12] >> Mayor Johnson, before we do that, it
[41:14] will need to be a roll call vote. We'll
[41:16] need to read the title before we go to
[41:17] that portion. Yeah. Thank you.
[41:21] Council
[41:23] member Connley moved, seconded by um
[41:26] Mayor Prom Trent to adopt ordinance
[41:28] 2025776,
[41:30] an ordinance of the city council of city
[41:32] of Fortuna to impose a temporary
[41:34] moratorium on rent increases on mobile
[41:37] home spaces in the city of Fortuna until
[41:39] the earlier of April 30th, 2026 or the
[41:42] repeal of this ordinance and determining
[41:44] the ordinance to be exempt from SQA.
[41:46] Roll call vote.
[41:51] Um, Council Member Connley,
[41:53] >> I.
[41:54] >> Council member Diaz,
[41:55] >> I.
[41:57] >> Council member Stevens,
[41:58] >> no.
[42:00] >> Mayor Prom,
[42:01] >> yes.
[42:02] >> And Mayor Johnson,
[42:04] >> yes.
[42:08] » So, the mo motion passes.
[42:10] >> So, it is affirmed.
[42:15] [Applause]
[42:22] Uh trying to drag this out of the way
[42:24] here.
[42:28] » So with that,
[42:31] >> I make a motion to adjurnn.
[42:34] >> Second.
[42:35] >> Have a motion and a second to adjurnn.
[42:37] All in favor? I
[42:39] >> opposed. None. Thank you.
