Check referendum window on Downtown Deck Plaza approval

Context: MOU passed 7-0 on 2026-04-28 despite significant public opposition noted in the record, creating referendum exposure typical of contested council adoptions.

Recommended: Because the memorandum of understanding drew significant public opposition before its 7-0 adoption, confirm the charter's referendum-petition deadline now — if opponents organize a petition within that window, implementation of the MOU could be stayed or forced to a public vote.

Investigate unanimous vote on contested Deck Plaza deal

Context: Item carried 7-0 on 2026-04-28 (Fierro absent, back from lunch) despite documented significant public opposition to the MOU.

Recommended: Council adopted the Downtown Deck Plaza memorandum of understanding 7-0 despite what the record calls significant public opposition — request the speaker cards and public comment log from the April 14 and April 28 meetings to find out who opposed it and why not a single council member dissented or abstained.

Expect Cedar Grove street work from new $1.6 million contract

Context: Council awarded the $1.6 million Cedar Grove task order to Amstar, LLC as part of the April 28 adoption vote.

Recommended: The $1.6 million on-call construction task order for Cedar Grove infrastructure improvements has been awarded to Amstar, LLC, so residents on affected blocks should expect crews and possible lane closures soon — call the city engineering office now to confirm which streets and utilities are included.
