MAYOR AND COUNCIL
Student Council Representative Jose Estrada praised the "Every Fifteen Minutes

the City for putting on such an impactful and meaningful program.
City Treasurer Mitch Beauchamp expressed concerns about new recycling
procedures and wastewater relegations that will negatively impact small
businesses.
Vice Mayor Mendivil praised the "Every Fifteen Minutes Program" as very
impactful and meaningful and thanked staff for the recent Day of Prayer event at
Kimball Park and reported that the clergy were very appreciative of City efforts.
Member Mendivil related an experience he had with panhandlers on the east end
of the City and was hoping there could be more enforcement and a crackdown
on those who decline the help the City offers through the Alpha Project.
Member Sotelo-Solis questioned how much is known about human-trafficking's
impacts on homelessness and panhandling; praised the "Every Fifteen Minutes
Program" as very impactful and worthwhile; requested future Proclamations for

MAYOR AND COUNCIL (continued)
3rd and 10th and advised that she had tickets for the Maytime Band Review
Kickoff event on May 19th
Mayor Morrison said that all requests for Proclamations should be submitted to
his office and he would give them full consideration and provided details on what
the participants in the "Every Fifteen Minutes" Program go through and
experience. Mayor Morrison stated his concern that the City's position is not
being accurately represented on the Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) Board
and his belief that we are not on outside Boards for our own personal agendas —
we represent the City. The Mayor put everyone on notice that if the practice
continues, he will request putting the matter on the agenda for discussion and
possible action.
