7. ANNOUNCEMENTS, FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS, AND REPORTS ON
MEETINGS/CONFERENCES ATTENDED BY COUNCILMEMBERS AND
MAYOR:
Councilmember Pollock reported on the election which occurred on November 8
and extended congratulations to Supervisor-elect Parvin, the first Ventura County
Board of Supervisor’s member from the City of Moorpark, and also extended
congratulations to Mayor-elect Enegren and to Councilmember-elect Means who
was present in the audience. He further commented that Nathan Sweet and Rob
Perez were re-elected to the Moorpark Unified School District Board, and the
results for City Council District 1 are still too close to call, noting an updated vote
result will be released Thursday at 2:00 p.m.
Councilmember Pollock stated on November 14 he attended the CalCities
Legislative Update and provided a report on three bills. Senate Bill (SB) 1439
extends the campaign contribution limit of $250 that previously applied only to
appointed officials to now include local elected officials. SB 1439 requires local
elected officials that received a campaign contribution of $250 or more to abstain
from voting on entitlements for that contributor for 12 months following receipt of
the contribution, and if you voted on an entitlement, you must refrain from
receiving contributions of $250 or more from the entitlement applicant for the next
12 months. If multiple Councilmembers received more than $250 in contributions
from the same contributor, it could present a problem. He commented if the City
had a $250 campaign contribution limit, this would avoid the issue for the
Council. He further reported on SB 960 that allows anyone authorized to work in
the United State to be a Police Officer, and this could be in conflict with federal
laws regarding the ability to carry firearms. Lastly, AB 1406 would require
California law enforcement officers to carry Tasers on the opposite side of where
they carry their firearm.
Councilmember Pollock reported on November 16 he attended a Southern
California Association of Governments (SCAG) Regional Council Advanced
Mitigation Plan Committee meeting; the Plan is focused on getting ahead of
environmental mitigations before a project is proposed and provided an example
encountered during the consideration the Carlsberg Specific Plan. The
Committee voted today to send the plan forward to the SCAG Regional Council.
Councilmember Pollock reported on a Southern California Edison red flag fire
warning that could result in a Public Safety Power Shutoff for the Anton and Zone
circuits that serve the City of Moorpark in the north and west.
Mayor-elect Enegren reported on November 4 he attended a Ventura County
Transportation Commission meeting.
