<br />Priority Focus Bulletin No. 28-2008. Council may direct staff to act on positions <br />taken by Council. (Copies of League of California Cities Priority Focus available in <br />City Clerk's Department). <br /> <br />B. Ongoing Matters <br /> <br />1. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) - Redwood Shores Levees. <br />No current update other than it is ongoing. <br /> <br />2. San Mateo County Jail Site. <br /> <br />Public Comment: <br />James Jonas stated one of the areas proposed for the jail is Dock Town, and hoped to <br />encourage the County to take a look at how this affects neighborhoods and sites. He <br />wished that those in the involved neighborhoods could speak as to how this affects them. <br /> <br />Nancy Radcliffe agreed that the County should look elsewhere as there are enough jails in <br />Redwood City. She stated she is still gathering petition signatures which will be sent to <br />the County. <br /> <br />The Mayor stated they were also preparing a letter with a position on the public process, <br />and the need to look at other locations outside the City, and also setting up a meeting with <br />jail and County officials to continue discussion on this issue. <br /> <br />1. Update on Elwood Street I Sequoia Union High School District. <br /> <br />The Mayor stated Council was given a written update on what is happening with the <br />residents in this area and the Sequoia High School District. She stated they would be <br />bringing this back to Council for discussion since, due to the late hour, members of the <br />community who had wanted to comment had left for the evening. Concern was expressed <br />over it being pushed beyond the next meeting. Mayor Foust suggested reaching out, <br />through the City Manager, to let community members know this issue may be pushed out <br />as far as the August 11, 2008 meeting if this were the case. <br /> <br />10. ADJOURNMENT: The meeting adjourned at 11 :01 p.m. <br /> <br />MIS IraNice Mayor Howard to adjourn.
