Dear Sahuaro District Residents,
This week during Council Workshop, we discussed a policy on the disposition of Glendale owned properties. An inventory of our larger properties was presented. The City Manager has a policy in place that he follows for disposition of property, but Council wanted to formalize a Council process in writing.
The City Manager will take the Council's recommendation to bring back a policy to another workshop for further discussion.
During the same Council Workshop, the Council had a lengthy discussion regarding commissions, and the role of the Human Relations Commission. There seems to be a problem with the ability of some commissions to have enough members present to have a quorum. As a result, it was recommended the Government Services Committee, made of up of three Council Members, review the process to make a recommendation to the Council concerning this issue.
It was suggested that one possible role of the Human Relations Commission is to hold cultural events that would bring the diversity of cultures we have in Glendale together in an event such as a food fair or events that display the diversity of cultures within the community.
Have a nice weekend,
Ray Malnar
Councilmember
