COUNCIL AGENDA ITEMS
Councilmember Hart thanked the City Manager for prompt action
regarding trimming of some palm trees in his neighborhood. He also
forwarded to the City Manager a petition from neighbors in the
Fairhaven Eastwood area requesting the installation of "no parking"
areas to facilitate traffic flow.
Councilmember McGuigan noted that the Sombrano request made at the
previous Council meeting had been resolved. She also indicated that
some sidewalk maintenance was needed on Bristol Street between 17th
and Washington Streets, and the appearance of potholes on First
Street between Newhope and Shannon Streets in the eastbound center

Councilmember Luxembourger inquired as to the status of the emergency
command post. The city Manager provided a brief verbal report on the
matter and indicated a report would be provided to the Public Safety
Committee the second week in April.
Councilmember Acosta noted that a Volkswagen bus in front of 2288
N. Flower appeared to be abandoned and requested staff investigate.
Vice Mayor Johnson reported that he had recently toured the Police
Department sub-stations and noted that the air conditioner in the
Downtown sub-station was in need of repair and that there were no
drapes on the windows. He indicated the sub-station on Harbor
Boulevard appeared to be in poor condition and inquired as to whether
the sub-station was to be relocated. He also suggested that staff
consider locating a sub-station in the parking garage planned for
construction at Fifth and Bush Streets following the expiration of
the Fourth Street Police sub-station lease. He also noted a wrecked
car at 1400 N. Parton which required abatement, reported apparent
