Clearlake City Council to discuss municipal code update, police department gym equipment
The council will meet for a closed session at 5:30 p.m. to discuss one potential case of litigation before the public portion of the meeting begins at 6 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 25, in the council chambers at Clearlake City Hall, 14050 Olympic Drive.
At the start of Thursday’s meeting, the council will meet a new police officer.
Under business, the council will discuss and consider a request for consent for withdrawal of Casitas De Mendota LLC of its interest in the partnership of “O” Village Investors, related to the development of Olympic Village Apartments, as well as a request for the city to sign a subordination agreement in reference to the same project.
Staff reported that in 2009 the Clearlake Redevelopment Agency gave “O” Village Investors a $700,000 loan for the development of affordable housing.
The council also will consider approving the commitment of Community Development Block Grant program income funds for Code Enforcement as well as the first reading of an amendment to the Clearlake Municipal Code adopting building code sections.
Also on Thursday, the council will consider approval of the purchase of gym equipment for the Clearlake Police Department.
Staff reports said the police department received a bid from a Sacramento company for equipment totaling $37,543.13. The Redbud Health Care District has approved a grant to cover the entire purchase.
On the consent agenda – items considered noncontroversial and usually accepted as a slate on one vote – are warrant registers; consideration of continuing the declaration of local emergency issued on Oct. 9, 2017, and ratified by council action on Oct. 12, 2017; second reading and adoption of Ordinance No. 214-2018 adding Section 3-4.16 to the Clearlake Municipal Code to provide informal bidding procedures under the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act; minutes of the Sept. 6, 19, 27 and Oct. 11 meetings; disposal of surplus police vehicles, Resolution No. 2018-50; approval of street closure for the annual Trunk or Treat on Oct. 31, Resolution No. 2018-48.
