Island Strategic Action CommitteeTuesday, June 9, 2026 · 5:30 PM · City Hall 1201 Leopard St. 6th Floor Conference Room

Context: The June 9, 2026 record states the subcommittee did not meet and that staff would collect highest priorities from members via email, with budget items required to be finalized at the July meeting.

Recommended: Ask the city secretary or committee liaison for the emails staff solicited from committee members ranking budget priorities, plus the posting and agenda record for the canceled June subcommittee meeting. Then put the question to counsel in writing: does compiling member rankings by email, rather than in a posted meeting, satisfy the committee's own procedures for how recommendations are formed — a question that is far harder to raise after the list is adopted in July.

Context: April 8, 2026 lists Encantada Box Culverts as pending LJA study results and short-term Island Mobility Plan striping projects, and March 3, 2026 shows city staff tasked with investigating forgotten Mobility Plan implementation phases.

Recommended: Request the LJA study on the Encantada box culverts and the city's list of Island Mobility Plan short-term phases staff was asked to investigate — these define the scope of any future drainage and striping packages. The committee has flagged five recurring items (Encantada culverts, mobility/striping, visitors center QR codes, welcome sign, South Packery Channel jetty accessibility), and the small-dollar sign, signage, and ADA scopes are the type typically handled off cooperative contracts rather than a formal advertised solicitation.

Context: The June 9, 2026 record states the subcommittee did not meet and staff would collect priorities by email before the next subcommittee meeting, while the April 8, 2026 entry lists Encantada Box Culverts as "pending LJA study results."

Recommended: The Ampitheater/Development Priorities subcommittee failed to meet on June 9, so staff moved to collecting "highest priorities" by email instead of in an open session — ask for that email chain and for the ranked list staff produced from it. Also ask when the LJA engineering study on the Encantada box culverts will be released, since it has been cited as pending since April 8 with no public results across three appearances of this item.

Context: The June 9, 2026 record states budget items must be finalized at the July meeting and that staff will collect priorities by email; minutes for both items record discussion only with no vote taken.

Recommended: If you want bike and pedestrian striping on your street, the Encantada box culverts, or wheelchair access at the South Packery Channel jetty funded next year, send your priority in writing to the committee now — staff is gathering rankings by email rather than at a public meeting, and the list is locked at the July meeting. The same five items have carried unchanged from April through June with no vote taken, so nothing is guaranteed until the ranking is set.
