Note-taking by Rami Stucky

City Council heard public input on the budget, with debate over public art funding, sales tax, tree planting, and budget cuts. Tensions rose when Mary Dean, a reparations advocate, was removed. Discussions included hiring a city manager search firm & adding a new fitness court.
