[1:07]
» Morning, Jerry Jambasian. Good morning,
mayor, council members, and staff and
[1:13]
deputies. When I was here probably four
weeks ago, I did mention the uh radar
[1:20]
indicator on uh Longden near Longd.
And I'm wondering is there any update on
[1:28]
it when it's going to be operational?
[1:32]
Okay.
I know you can't give answers but after
[1:37]
a month it seems like something should
happen.
[1:41]
» Fair. We we will we will ask during the
meeting. Thank you for Thank you.
[1:45]
» There's a radar in there's a radar
thing.
[1:47]
» There's two two of them.
>> It's like a speed. You're talking about
[1:50]
the speed.
>> Yeah. East and west there.
[1:52]

>> Exactly.
[1:54]
» Yeah. Okay.
>> Yeah. And with school starting, it kind
[1:57]

>> Thank you, Jerry. Does anyone else wish

[2:10]
» There are none, mayor.
>> Okay. Thank you. With that, we will
[2:13]
close public comment and we will go
right into item four, communications.
[2:18]
So,
Mr. City Manager, do you want to say
[2:22]
anything before we start or should I
turn it right over to
[2:25]
» Thank you, Mayor Man. If you could turn
it right over to Deputy Schwarz, then we
[2:28]
can we can begin our normal
presentation. Thank you, sir.
[2:31]
» Morning, Deputy Schwarz. Floor is yours.
>> Good morning, everyone. Uh, today we're
[2:35]
going to be going over um for July. Um,
I think there was kind of a mishap with
[2:42]
changing everything uh going back and
forth. So, I do apologize. Um, I don't
[2:47]
know where the August came from, but
we're going to be going over July.
[2:53]
Um, of course, uh, we have the
volunteers on patrol. If you do want to
[2:58]
volunteer, um, all the information is
right there. You can reach out to Deputy
[3:02]
Johnson if you want to volunteer, uh, to
do control checks. Um, still it's the
[3:07]
same, the quality of life. Um, always
checking up on the register, the police
[3:11]
and the probationers in the city along
with talking to the progentation
[3:16]
officers. Um, the crime trends are still
uh getting the burglaries um the the
[3:23]
petty testies uh and we're just doing um
constant patrol checks burglary
[3:28]
operations throughout the city.
Um right here for a notable arrest
[3:34]
deputies
uh deputies doing a patrol check notice
[3:38]
person laying on the ground upon
contacting him they recovered a
[3:41]
controlled substance. Can you hear me?
>> Yeah.
[3:46]
» Okay. Sorry. um department resources
showed that um uh the person um had
[3:52]
prior convictions of being in possession
of a controlled substance and this is
[3:56]
one of the new laws that passed the
11395B1.
[3:59]
So he was arrested for a felony. Other
than that it would would have been a
[4:02]
misdemeanor.
[4:06]
Um also uh this one I know you guys
might have heard deputies responded to
[4:10]
an assault with a deadly weapon call
where there was a gun pointed at the
[4:13]
victims using department resources. All
suspects uh were arrested uh that night
[4:18]
and later that day. Um just using uh
interview and department resources that
[4:23]
throughout the city.
[4:29]
Um right here, this one is a good
notable arrest. A deputy doing a patrol
[4:33]
check was flagged down that the victim
had just had jewelry uh stolen from her
[4:37]
person. During the investigation, the
deputy was able to get a license plate.
[4:42]
Right. Uh earlier in that day, these
suspects had committed a robbery inside
[4:46]
Roseme. So they were able to tie them
together. Later that evening, both
[4:50]
suspects were arrested. These suspects
were also related to two prior uh
[4:56]
robberies in the city and they were also
uh wanted in Lakewood for also uh
[5:01]
committing a robbery. So uh with that
arrest uh was able to close a lot of
[5:05]
cases and um uh arrest them.
[5:12]
But are they just part of a figure gang
or two individual?
[5:17]
» Uh two two individuals. Yes. Mhm.
>> Uh so right here we're going to be going
[5:24]
down uh the the crime stats.
>> Deputy Schwarz, just sorry to interrupt.
[5:28]
Yes.
>> In your previous slide at the bottom
[5:30]
when you said there's a notation that
says the suspects were arrested for the
[5:34]
following. Could you help us understand
what those
[5:37]
» Yes, sir. Uh the 211 PC is robbery. Oh,
>> um and then they were also arrested for
[5:43]
grand theft.
>> That's 487A.
[5:46]
» Yes, sir. 211 is robbery and the 487 APC
is grand theft. Thank you.
[5:50]
» Um and then prior to that, uh they were
um suspects for committing a grand theft
[5:56]
earlier and a robbery also in the city.
>> Just as one quick reminder too for the
[6:02]
council, the team actually looks at
every single report that comes in. So,
[6:07]
not only are the crime analysts doing
activity, but Deputy Buoie, Deputy
[6:11]
Felix, and Deputy Schwarz are looking at
all the crimes in the city and then
[6:15]
reporting to
and it dictates some of their
[6:18]
operations, but also too, they're
pushing that up the chain as well. So,
[6:22]
they have a good handle on what is
happening in the community and I
[6:25]
appreciate all their work. So, that's
why you can hear from anyone, Deputy
[6:30]
Felix, Deputy Buoie, Deputy Schwarz,
they have this very intimate knowledge
[6:34]
of each of these crimes every single
time.
[6:37]
Thank you, sir. Uh so now we're going to
be going down the um uh the stats from
[6:42]
uh January to July as well. Uh so for
the month of July, zero homicides, um
[6:48]
zero rapes. Uh the one robbery was
actually at a business where the victim
[6:52]
confronted the suspects and that's how
the elements were were meant for a
[6:55]
robbery. So it just wasn't a person uh
out and about. Uh the victim actually
[6:59]
approached these people and they were
stealing copper wire. Um the assault
[7:03]
it's actually not five, it should be
three. Sorry, is it not on the screen?
[7:07]
It should be three. Um out of the three,
two are arrested. Uh the other one is a
[7:13]
uh named suspect and hopefully by uh
next meeting uh that person will be will
[7:17]
be arrested.
Um the residential burglary should be uh
[7:22]
at 10. Um one of them wasn't attempted.
Uh and there is some uh information that
[7:28]
is ongoing with the detectives and
hopefully we'll have an answer for you
[7:31]
uh next meeting regarding some arrests.
Um vehicle burglaries were at zero. The
[7:36]
one grand theft uh is what we just
talked about for the notable arrest
[7:40]
where that person had jewelry taken from
them and they were arrested behind that.
[7:44]
Um the petty thefts uh one was a late
reported from an unlocked vehicle
[7:51]
and uh the other one I believe is from a
business. Um I know the Grand Theft
[7:56]
Autos uh it was up to four but out of
the four three of them were unlocked and
[8:02]
one of them actually had their keys
inside. So this is one of the things
[8:05]
that we talk about in the area uh watch
meeting of trying not to be a victim of
[8:09]
a crime. preventing don't don't leave
purses visible inside your car. Um lock
[8:15]
your car. So out of the four uh the
three were unlocked.
[8:23]
Uh and this just breaks down um all the
stats again from year to date. So from
[8:28]
year to date from last year we're at 100
burglaries. Uh currently right now uh we
[8:32]
are at uh 61. And sorry I did skip
through one the one commercial burglary.
[8:38]
Sorry about that. The person we did
arrest um commercial burglary uh was a
[8:42]
sight out but using department resources
we noticed that this individual had uh
[8:47]
prior convictions for theft. So we did
arrest for that new law the 66.1 PC. So
[8:53]
that person was held. Um but just to let
you know I thought it was a felony. Um
[8:58]
they actually charged that individual as
a misdemeanor. So I know talking to a
[9:02]
few people we all just thought it was a
straight felony but it could be charged
[9:05]
as a misdemeanor. And if I can add one
thing, one thing on the civilian side
[9:09]
that we've done that you've done as well
is that you've really we've really
[9:13]
strengthened the behavioral issues
related to uh use of public spaces and
[9:18]
and um activity and behavior in the
public right away. So, I know the team
[9:25]
does a really good job of coupling those
two together using what the new laws
[9:30]
allow them from a criminal justice
standpoint, but also to our laws that we
[9:34]
have that you passed almost a year and a
half ago now. They are a they're a
[9:39]
little bit more quant qualitative rather
than quantitative in their in what you
[9:44]
see in the numbers, but they are having
effect. And I know talking to the team
[9:48]
and u getting the captain acquainted as
well and captain May said that that was
[9:53]
something that he felt was really
important and it's working. So I want to
[9:57]
thank the council for that. I know it
can be a little more stringent for some
[10:00]
folks in in some communities feel a
little bit more um
[10:05]
maybe not at ease with those types of
those types of ordinances. But it it is
[10:10]
helping
[10:18]
Uh so this just breaks down exactly what
we just went over um year-to- date from
[10:21]
2023. Um all the stats that uh we just
went over.
[10:27]
Um so these are our response times uh
for the month of July. The routine was
[10:31]
uh 49.3 uh minutes uh priority uh 12 and
emergent call uh was three. Um the total
[10:39]
arrest for felony was six. uh
misdemeanor was 40 for a total of 46
[10:43]
arrests and one of them was the prox P
prop 36 arrest which was that um prior
[10:48]
conviction with a controlled substance
the 11395B1.
[10:54]
Uh the traffic issues um are still
especially with school picking up right
[10:58]
now the speeding uh failure to stop at
uh red lights and the ebikes. I know
[11:03]
Deputy Felix and Deputy Buouie this past
week uh were at Temple City High School
[11:07]
uh regarding ebikes and talking to
everyone.
[11:12]
» Could you explain what high visibility
patrols are?
[11:15]
» Yeah, so that's just us uh driving
around doing patrol checks in the cities
[11:19]
just how Mr. Cook said, we know by
reading the reports, we kind of know the
[11:23]
certain areas in the city that we're
getting complaints regarding speeding.
[11:27]
If there's a certain crime trend going
on, that's where we'll start doing
[11:30]
patrol checks in that certain area. just
for high visibility to try to deter it.
[11:39]
Um these are the um the traffic stats um
from January to July and then also uh
[11:44]
July. Uh we had two traffic crashes uh
that unfortunately had an injury. 11
[11:50]
were property damage uh for a total of
13. Uh for traffic citations, 101
[11:56]
hazardous citations were giving out um
and six non-hazardous. The difference
[12:01]
between hazardous and non-hazardous is
running a stop sign, running a red light
[12:05]
is a hazardous citation. Somebody having
uh expired registration, a brake light
[12:10]
out, uh that is considered a
nonhazardous citation uh for a total of
[12:14]
107. And two, in this situation, I want
to thank our not only our we we do our
[12:20]
motors, but I appreciate our our team
and our traffic deputies who are out who
[12:26]
are really trying their best uh their
best to um enforce but also be a
[12:32]
presence out in the community, too. So,
we've seen that especially in the last
[12:36]
last I would say about the last three
months. Um and and you can see it in
[12:40]
some of the statistics as well.
[12:46]
Um right here for the special assignment
uh the activities uh the city meetings
[12:51]
uh the transportation and public safety
commission meetings um a few weeks uh
[12:55]
every night um traffic enforcement
detail uh meetings with the captain if
[13:00]
we have any uh trends and we're also
currently doing burglary suppression
[13:03]
operations throughout the city and just
how Mr. Cook said, uh, always doing
[13:07]
follow-up on active cases, uh, assisting
with DB and what we can do, um, to try
[13:12]
to solve some of these reports and
cases.
[13:16]
Uh, September events, uh, that we have
coming up is the high autumn festival.
[13:20]
Um, and then just, uh, contacting some
uh, regarding residential burglaries
[13:26]
with some other uh, agencies. And that's
where I said hopefully next month we can
[13:31]
uh talk to you a little bit more about
um some arrests where we're talking to
[13:34]
some local agencies and even some
agencies that aren't so close.
[13:40]
Um public outreach um uh constantly uh
going to businesses for a letter of
[13:45]
agencies uh doing the neighborhood watch
meeting which we just had um a week ago.
[13:51]
And uh doing the ebike and burglary uh
suppression. I know ebikes right now
[13:55]
with school starting uh is a big issue.
And that'll conclude uh for the month of
[14:01]
July. So,
>> and with that, Council uh Mayor Man, um
[14:07]
uh I know we're moving a little fast
today, but I'd like uh only two and a
[14:11]
half weeks on the job. Sir, I'd like to
I think several of you met uh Captain
[14:16]
Sheriff Morsey, who is the new captain
of the Temple Station. I'll allow him to
[14:20]
introduce himself.
[14:23]
» Good morning. First of all, I apologize
for uh for my late arrival. Uh pleasure
[14:28]
to be here. I'm glad to be back at
Temple Station. Um as you know, I I was
[14:32]
previously assigned here approximately
10 years ago. Um very happy to be back.
[14:36]
I have a great team here at at the
station. You have a great team at the
[14:40]
Temple City in particular, our SEO team
are doing a phenomenal job. And I thank
[14:44]
you for the opportunity to be here.
>> Okay. Well, welcome Kathy.
[14:50]
And yeah, we we look forward to having
you being part of the Temple City
[14:55]
community. I know you're familiar with
it and you're absolutely right. We have
[14:59]
a phenomenal team here and the proof is
in the not just the numbers but in the
[15:05]
way that they interact with our
community, not just at neighborhood
[15:08]
watch meetings, but at so many different
events. So, um, just like Brian said
[15:12]
earlier, their intimate knowledge of our
crimes helps us better understand what
[15:17]
we as a council need to do to help and
support our partners in law enforcement,
[15:22]
especially our amazing Temple Station
team. So, thank you for being here with
[15:26]
us.
>> Um, so we and thank you, Deputy Schwarz,
[15:31]
for the presentation. Um, I do want to
allow council for any questions or
[15:36]
comments. Um, council member Sturquist,
>> I don't have any questions. Just thanks
[15:40]
again for the work that you all do.
>> No questions.
[15:44]
» No.
>> No further questions the mayor, but I
[15:48]
would really want to welcome the captain
uh back to Temple Temple City and Temple
[15:54]
Station and uh and like the mayor said,
we have a phenomenal team. You know how
[15:59]
the city works and um and um and I think
you also understand the sentiment of our
[16:06]
residents that their expectations. So
looking forward to working with you.
[16:12]
» So I I do have a couple questions just
uh one to try to follow up on Mr.
[16:17]
Jambasian's question. The the Longden
the speeding limit sign that's on
[16:23]
Longden is that's under the purview of
the city, right? We we maintain that.
[16:28]
» It is Mayor Man. And I'm sorry for the
delay on that. We've been we've been
[16:32]
replacing several of the batteries for a
lot of those locations throughout. I
[16:36]
will double check on that one. Um that
that may have I I will double check on
[16:41]
where we are with that. I apologize.
>> Okay.
[16:43]
» So I I will report back to the council
and I'll I'll get back to the community
[16:46]
as well.
>> Yeah. If if you can at least report back
[16:49]
at our next regular council meeting,
perhaps in your city manager's report on
[16:53]
an ETA on that.
>> Good idea, sir. We'll do.
[16:55]
» Okay. Thank you. Um and then another
thing to follow up on, I know during our
[17:00]
last meeting we had some students from
Temple City High School
[17:06]
bring some ideas to us in in terms of
how that's being rolled out or or if
[17:13]
it's being rolled out. Is there anything
that you can update us on?
[17:19]
» Sure. Um especially on the ebike front,
we're trying um we've been working very
[17:24]
aggressively and I know Deputy Felix was
was it this Saturday or last Saturday?
[17:29]
» Saturday. myself and Deputy Buy
>> and Deputy Buouie. Uh Saturday, we're
[17:32]
actually out in at the school doing an
active level of education. I know that
[17:37]
um the Temple City Unified School
District has asked us to do what we can.
[17:42]
Um we're trying to balance between
educating and enforcement. [laughter] I
[17:47]
think that's that's that's really that's
really the the challenge. um outright
[17:51]
bans and stuff like that. That's a
little bit um more difficult in terms of
[17:56]
what's allowed under the law, but really
um the dedicated team has been out in
[18:02]
force with the schools and I think um
Deputy Felix and Deputy Buy spent the
[18:08]
weekend and then they've been to several
of their assemblies too. Um in terms of
[18:12]
some of the other particular aspects of
what the um students brought forward
[18:16]
with a little bit more detail beyond the
enforcement and education, we'll take a
[18:21]
deeper dive into that as well and see
what is uh what's feasible as well.
[18:26]
» Yeah, I I think that that I would
appreciate if we we did consider that
[18:31]
and at least provide a a response even
even if we believed some of them may not
[18:37]
be feasible for whatever reason it may
be. I think we at least deserve to take
[18:43]
a look at it and review it and determine
what what makes sense for us.
[18:47]
» Yeah, absolutely. And we can talk and
some of those uh some of those young uh
[18:51]
folks are, you know, part of a lot of
the leadership activities with it with
[18:55]
that work with us. So, we're in contact
with them. So, and we'll we'll get back
[18:59]
to them.
Um, I know that we had mentioned to Greg
[19:03]
some time ago when I believe there were
some cities in San Diego that had
[19:08]
actually put ordinances in place that
banned ebikes uh ebikes and um I know of
[19:17]
some other cities that are looking at
banning them at a certain time which is
[19:22]
early morning and then again in the
early afternoon when kids are coming and
[19:27]
going because that seems to the time
that [clears throat] of course they're
[19:32]
using them. You know, I I only live one
block um east of Temple City Boulevard
[19:40]
and
I am going to say in the last two weeks
[19:45]
I have seen an uptake
in kids on ebikes, 90% of them without
[19:52]
helmets. So, I'm wondering at what point
will we decide that we're just not going
[20:02]
to allow them or make it so difficult
that these kids
[20:08]
can't use them? Maybe. [clears throat] I
I don't know what the answer is, but I
[20:13]
am just afraid that every day on, you
know, whether it's Facebook pages or
[20:20]
um you know, the news, somebody's in the
hospital, someone's having a GoFundMe
[20:26]
um fundraiser for someone who was
injured critically with brain injuries
[20:34]
on, you know, the news. I I I just don't
know. I mean, if if one city was able to
[20:40]
do it and it was legally okay. We've
been talking about education of of
[20:45]
ebikes for how long? You know, your
hands are tied. And I think we really
[20:50]
need to think about this and maybe have
a special meeting in with Greg, our city
[20:57]
attorney, looking and our sheriff's
department looking at what's the maximum
[21:02]
enforcement we can allow in our city
that's legal. It's just my thought, but
[21:07]
I know Tom, you have been so vocal about
this also. And I just think there comes
[21:12]
a point in time where education is not
working anymore.
[21:18]
It it just doesn't seem to be enough. So
just my thoughts on that.
[21:23]
» Mayor, may I just take on comments?
>> Yes, please.
[21:25]
» So yeah, not only ebikes. Um just uh
just last week I was driving Huntington
[21:31]
Boulevard and there was a kid in East
Scooter not bike and he was going
[21:38]
between 30 and 40 miles because I could
tell cuz that's by speed and I could
[21:43]
barely caught up with him uh on I don't
it was it was crazy. So, so my question
[21:49]
is really while we're talking about
ebikes, but there are e scooters out
[21:52]
there that are probably even faster
because they're light, smaller, lighter.
[21:56]
And and I must say as a former
cyclist, it's harder to control a
[22:02]
scooter than a bike. Bike you can
control it just with your legs, but
[22:05]
there are no legs, you know, because
you're standing on the scooter. So, so I
[22:10]
just want to take on what to council
member Sternest uh response. So, um, at
[22:16]
what point and and what should we do
about these things?
[22:22]
» Okay. Yeah. So, I think our city manager
hears us loud and clear. I think there
[22:27]
there's a lot of uh information that we
would need to have a substantive
[22:32]
discussion on this matter that of course
includes our city attorney's input. And
[22:38]
we do know there's a lot going on in
neighboring cities. And uh I I will the
[22:42]
only thing I will say at this point is
not all cities are created equal. So in
[22:47]
terms of what they're dealing with, what
we're dealing with uh maybe not exactly
[22:51]
an applesto apples comparison, but
nevertheless I think it warrants a a
[22:55]
substantive discussion to see if there's
anything again on the policy end that
[23:01]
would help with this issue. Right. Um,
one thing I I want us to be cognizant of
[23:06]
is that if we're limiting accessibility
for transportation, that could also have
[23:11]
a another effect. So, there's always
going to be pros and cons to what we do.
[23:15]
And and I think that's that's why it
necessitates a a discussion at the
[23:19]
policy level.
>> You know, I I'm sorry. I
[23:22]
» Sorry.
>> I think that
[23:26]
accessibility, yes, can be an issue, but
we did without ebikes for many years.
[23:32]
And most children who
go to school are either dropped off by
[23:38]
their parents and or you know um maybe
they walk maybe some parents don't feel
[23:43]
safe with that but they make
arrangements and I think that
[23:48]
you know at some point we are the policy
makers and we take a note to do the best
[23:54]
that we can and and protect the people
that we represent. And I just think that
[24:00]
anything that's within the law, whether
it's making you get a license or
[24:04]
whatever that might look like, I think
that we should should do that. And, you
[24:11]
know, parents can get up 5 minutes
earlier. How how long does it take to
[24:14]
get from, you know, where I live to the
high school? It's just a matter of more
[24:19]
convenience provided. It's like we live
in a fast food, you know, world. then I
[24:23]
I just can't be more adamant about it
that I think we're going to sit here one
[24:27]
day and we're going to feel sorry for
the family of someone that got either
[24:31]
killed or critically injured. And I
think Tom and I see the possibilities
[24:35]
daily that can happen with serving on
CJPIA. I do from a transportation issue
[24:42]
because I serve on Foothill Transit. So,
you know, accessibility is people make
[24:48]
it happen. I mean, I drove my kids to
school far out of Temple City and I made
[24:52]
sure they got there on time. I mean,
because I chose to send my kids to a
[24:56]
religious school, but so I think parents
have the ability to enforce it, but it
[25:02]
doesn't seem like enforcement is is
happening from the parental standpoint.
[25:06]
So, get up 10 minutes earlier and take
your kids to school.
[25:09]
» And if I may, um, I think there's a huge
difference between bicycle and ebikes. I
[25:15]
mean I mean we have bicycles for ages,
right? We never had accessibility
[25:20]
problem. So we're really not talking
about banning regular bicycles.
[25:24]
» No.
>> Right. Or or or um making ordinance
[25:27]
against uh regular bicycles. We're
talking about ebikes. The ones that that
[25:31]
goes fast.
>> The children with that are on bicycles
[25:34]
are wearing helmets,
>> right?
[25:36]
» They have the helmets on. I see them
with helmets, but I don't see the ebike
[25:40]
kids with helmets or scooters.
>> Yeah.
[25:43]
» Yeah. So, so what what I would suggest
is that of you, our city manager will
[25:48]
tell us when an agenda item can be
prepared for this discussion matter. I
[25:53]
would also suggest that considering the
substantive nature of the discussion, it
[25:58]
probably wouldn't fit in this current
meetings format. It would be part of our
[26:03]
regular council meeting discussion. Um,
I would also suggest that as part of the
[26:08]
standing committee with the school
district that council member Chavez and
[26:12]
I are part of that before that gets
placed on our agenda, we get a chance to
[26:17]
give them a heads up that this is part
of that discussion and we should invite
[26:20]
them to be a part of that input as well
since they are our partners um, in that
[26:25]
and I would go as far as saying that
this extends to Elmani Unified even
[26:30]
though we don't hear as much of maybe we
don't hear as many issues from Clemenson
[26:34]
But nevertheless, they are part of the
the city limits as well as any kind of
[26:41]
impacts related to the Arcadia school
district side of the city.
[26:44]
» We'll do
>> Yeah, I know.
[26:45]
» St. Gabriel, we have the the school
right behind the police station.
[26:51]
» Oh, the the St. Gabriel Academy.
>> Yes.
[26:53]
» On Broadway,
>> the Elks Club, isn't there a school
[26:56]
right across the street?
>> Oh, yes. Yes. I forgot about that. Yes.
[26:59]
Yeah. So [clears throat] definitely that
partnership with the districts needs to
[27:04]
be included as part of this discussion.
>> Understood sir.
[27:07]
» Okay. And and I do want to just on that
note and end on a a rel somewhat high
[27:13]
note on that. Um I will say that
anecdotally for the uh the Temple City
[27:17]
Unified School District even at the
elementary school level in back to
[27:21]
school nights for my kids the teachers
have actually addressed the ebike issue
[27:27]
in the back to school night. They don't
go into a lot of details obviously, but
[27:31]
they do note that well they first they
mention that well it's not as prevalent
[27:35]
of a problem at the elementary school
level but they do tell parents they says
[27:39]
hey if you if your kids are coming to
school on ebikes know that there are
[27:43]
laws and regulations governing safety
the types of bikes the speed etc and so
[27:50]
they said you need to be informed um but
when I asked the teachers they says yeah
[27:54]
we we don't see that as as much at
Longden Cloverly elementary. So, it's
[27:59]
probably a more of a high school or
middle school issue.
[28:05]
All right, with that, um, if are there
any final final comments before we
[28:12]
adjourn? Um, oh, actually, no, we have
one last public comment item. So, I will
[28:17]
open the public comment for the final
part of our meeting. Is there anyone who
[28:21]
would like to address council at this
time?
[28:24]
Okay, madame city clerk, are there any
virtual speakers on this part of the
[28:28]
item?
>> Mayor, we do not have a request. Oh,
[28:31]
excuse me.
>> Do we have one?
[28:33]
» We do have a public uh we do have a
participant, but they're not requesting
[28:37]
to speak.
>> Got it. Okay. Thank you. Then uh with
[28:40]
that, I will close the public comment
and we are adjourned for this session.
[28:46]
Um but council does have a close session
following this meeting. So um we will
[28:51]
follow and open the close session right
afterwards.
[28:55]
» Uh close session is threat of litigation
facts unknown to the potential plaintiff
[28:59]
one potential case under government code
section 54956.9
[29:05]
subsection D I have four.
Thank you. Where are we?
[29:13]
» Okay. Good good morning. Um
>> council has concluded close session. We
[29:19]
were briefed by our city attorney on the
item listed on 6A of close session item
[29:27]
and there is no reportable action at
this time. So with that we will adjourn
[29:34]
the close session.
