<br />MIS Hartnett/Pierce to adopt the resolution certifying the election results. <br /> <br />Mayor Foust asked that the Council create a means by which the various community <br />stakeholders address the future of the Cargill Lands. The Mayor also made comments <br />about the last six months and the Special election. Certain Council Members spoke <br />about the need to compromise and to have an open mind. Mayor Foust explained that <br />the original goal was to bring the various interest groups together and then have a <br />community process that feeds right into the General Plan. One Council Member would <br />like the community to focus on the whole area of the city and not just focus on the <br />Cargill site because the General Plan consultants should have a broader scope. <br /> <br />One Council Member saw value in getting in touch with the stakeholders and possibly <br />assess what the choices are, but similarly understanding the implications and <br />repercussions. One Council Member would like to see only Redwood City community <br />involved. He believes the people of Redwood City have spoken. Vice Mayor Howard <br />would like to bring the groups together and challenge them to work with the Council. <br />There was Council consensus to pursue the option of a dialogue between the <br />various interest groups. Council acquiesced that the goal is to empower the <br />community as well as the Council to chart their path without empowering certain <br />stakeholders that are set on their ways or might be unable to compromise. <br /> <br />Motion carried unanimously by roll call vote. <br /> <br />B. Pilot Street Cleaning Program Progress Report. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />Informational Only. <br /> <br />Marilyn Harang, Public Works Superintendent, provided additional information than <br />what was on the report (presentation on file). Council was appreciative of the report. <br /> <br />8. PUBLIC HEARING <br /> <br />A. Approval of Landscape Irrigation Water Rates. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />(1).
