It was noted it is important to her that staff keep Council apprised of the process. She would like to see the issue come before the Council at some point in order to be able to discuss it in public. The City Attorney noted the issue would only come to the Council if it is appealed. It would not come to the Council if it is not appealed. 6.

She added what a wonderful, positive experience it was and thanked Council Member Young, along with staff and the Chamber, for their efforts. She continued by thanking Council Member Lothrop for the enlightening Tour of District 6. The Mayor reported on the recent Heart Walk and the Farmers' Market, which appears to be decreasing in foot traffic and number of vendors. She asked staff to look into and report back on this trend at the Farmers' Market. Mayor Corbett also reported on the Ribbon Cutting at the Mission Bell Apartments; the Essay/Poster Contest for the City's 125th Anniversary, which took place earlier this evening; and concluded by reporting on a ride-a-long she did with the Police Department on bicycle.
