Mr. Cooke indicated that the City will <br /> be performing "walk audits" of several schools. Mayor Santos requested that <br /> Washington Elementary' be considered for an audit. <br /> Councilmember Prola suggested installing a lighted crosswalk on Wicks between the <br /> Marina Community Center and the parking lot at Stenzel Park. <br /> Councilmember Stephens expressed gratitude for the work done in the Victoria area, <br /> noting that the residents of that area have been registering their concerns for some time. <br /> Councilmember Starosciak indicated that she has heard concerns about the safety of the <br /> intersection of Lewelling and Farnsworth, and she passed on a suggestion that a red <br /> light camera be installed there to calm traffic. <br /> B.

The measure would include the formation of a Citizens Oversight <br /> Committee and an annual independent audit of the funds collected and spent. Mr. <br /> Hollister reported on the budget and staffing reductions already made by the City, the <br /> additional reductions that would likely need to be made should the measure fail, and the <br /> staff recommendation to place the sales tax measure on the November ballot. <br /> Public Comments on Item 10.B.: <br /> Patrick Grajeda, President, San Leandro City Employees Association, addressed <br /> the City Council, commenting on the program and service reductions made by the City, <br /> and the need for the revenue measure. <br /> Nick Thom, President, San Leandro Management Organization, addressed the City <br /> Council, commenting on the City management staffs support for the revenue measure. <br /> Mr. Thom pointed out the decline in the quality of life for residents without the <br /> necessary revenues provided by the measure. <br />
