ITEM 1.
Mayor Burnett reported that the Monterey County Grand Jury had made a
request of the City for production of documents, waiver of closed session
privilege and waiver of attorney client privilege and provide direction to staff. City
Attorney Don Freeman provided an extensive oral report and recommendations.
Council questions followed.
Public Comments:
Michael Stamp, attorney representing John Hanson, objected to the release of
personnel records.
Carolyn Hardy spoke in opposition to releasing the personnel records and
waiving privileges.
Tim Meroney, retired Building Official, indicated that he had not agreed to waive
his rights and objects to the release of personnel records.
The Council moved from the dais to informal round-table format to allow the
public an opportunity to ask questions of the Mayor, City Council, City
Administrator and other key members of Staff. Members of the public asked
questions of members of the Council or City staff and/or made suggestions on
topics including the Councils approval of monthly expenditures, the renovation of
Forest Theater, weddings on the beach, the Holman Round-about project, beach
restroom maintenance, and holiday lights downtown.
Mayor Burnett closed by asking the public in attendance for their opinions on the
forum. Comments were generally favorable and suggestions were offered for
improvement (start earlier in the day, take questions in advance by mail, email).
ADJOURNMENT: There being no further business, Mayor Burnett adjourned
the meeting at 7:25 p.m.
