May 2nd City Council Meeting

Election day was yesterday, and it was a good one! Let’s celebrate some election outcomes:

District 1: Jessica Cain!
District 2: Margie Villapando!
The four bonds: All passed!  Everything worked out great.

Thank you to all of you that turned out to vote, and to everyone who worked on those campaigns and put in the hard work. Let’s take a beat to celebrate! Ok, back to work.

(I am still embarrassed that I posted the wrong voting district last time.  I promise to triple-check my work going forward.)

Onto last Tuesday’s meeting:

Hours 0:00- 2:04:  We take a deep dive into the newly proposed SMPD contract.  I found Chief Standridge to be kinda infuriating and I got a little steamed up about it.

Hours 2:04-2:58: Some zoning cases. And a brief trip down memory lane, in a gondola.

Hours 2:58 – 4:37:  The latest on the SMART Terminal, putting boots on cars, and some talk of ending the eviction delay.

That’s a wrap! Enjoy those good election outcome vibes while they last!
