Mayor Corbett presented copies of the Proclamation to Linda Schneider, representing the San Leandro Unified School District; Lorraine Hurley, representing San Lorenzo Unified School District; and Susan Hupp, St. Leander, representing private schools. Mayor Corbett said none of us would be where we are today without the help of teachers. She suggested that each of us remember a teacher who made a difference in our lives and send them a note thanking them for all they have done for us. Ms. Schneider thanked the City Council on behalf of the San Leandro Teachers' Association. Ms. Hurley said this is the first time teachers have been recognized by the City Council and expressed her appreciation. Ms. Hupp thanked the City Council for including St. Leander, Assumption, and St. Felicitas Schools in this Proclamation. 5. PUBLIC COMMENTS Public Comments are limited to 5 minutes per person. A. Louis Trager, 312 Maud Avenue, requested that the City Council move the matter of the Appeal of the mural up on the Agenda so it could be considered early in the meeting. Mayor Corbett noted the Agenda this evening was very short and Council should be able to get through the other matters quickly and on to the mural . She thanked Mr. Trager for his suggestion. B. John Justino, 1211 - 147th Avenue, asked when a wall or trees would be put in behind the Pacific High School sports field and when the trailer at Halcyon Park would be moved. He also requested the City Council adopt an ordinance that would create smoke-free restaurants throughout San Leandro. C. Lawrence Porter, 76 Dutton Avenue, said he recently saw the Fire Department respond in San Leandro Plaza and unlock a car where keys had been left inside. He said he felt this kind of work was better left to AAA or other road services. D. Lou Filipovich, 15376 Laverne Drive, said he did not believe the City Council should become involved in politics when making a decision and that the mural issue was too political .
