4. PUBLIC COMMENT:
Dr. Roseann Mikos, Moorpark resident, spoke to express her opinion that the
City Council prematurely voted at its April 7 meeting to adopt new strategies,
goals, and objectives for the next two-year period prior to holding joint meetings
with the commissions/board which have historically been held prior to new
objectives being adopted in order to incorporate commission/board input and
feedback into the new goals, and further expressed surprise that prior goals and
objectives have not been carried forward in to the new two year plan.
