Planning/Historic Preservation Committee could serve the purpose he intended. He hoped an
historic home tour could also be developed. He didn't think a new committee needed to be developed.
Councilmember Williams stated she supported this and felt we should take the Rails to Trails
Subcommittee and put it into Community Services Subcommittee.
MOTION: Moved by Williams, seconded by Gutierrez to use the Planning/Historic Preservation
Subcommittee to work with the historic preservation staff and move the rails to trails work to the
Community Services Subcommittee. Motion carried unanimously 5-0.
Q3. CONSIDERATION OF THE FORMATION OF AN ABANDONED RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES
ORDINANCE SUBCOMMITTEE
Councilmember Spagnolo stated he brought this up at the last meeting to develop a subcommittee to deal
with abandoned properties in the City. He stated he would like to be on this.
Mayor Pro Tem Michael stated he would also like to be on it and commented on the number of homes
that are vacant that didn't look very good.
MOTION: Moved by Kurth, seconded by Williams to appoint Councilmember Spagnolo and Mayor Pro
