Top issues during term (4)(Business Jobs)
Guanajuato sister city dispute
North Fair Oaks Black Legacy District funding
The plan itself has no immediate cost, but the council directed staff to find money for banners, crosswalks and art, and a fee waiver for minor conditional use permits will be studied.
MEHKO home kitchen pilot program
About $225,000 in general fund costs over two years, mostly unrecoverable startup and enforcement spending.
Closure of La Cocina de las Abuelas commercial kitchen
Pacto subsidized the kitchen at $24,000 a year; vendors face lost income every week the kitchen stays closed.
