In a recent city commission meeting, Mayor Gilberto Falcon opened with a call for unity among commissioners, emphasizing the importance of making decisions that positively impact the community and its employees. The meeting began with a prayer for those facing hardships, particularly highlighting the recovery of Commissioner Odolio Barrera, who is currently absent due to health issues.

Following the invocation, the commission proceeded with a roll call, confirming the presence of key members, including Mayor Pro Tem Del Valera and City Manager Gilberto Milan. The meeting transitioned to the public forum segment, where Reynaldo Ramirez addressed the commission regarding concerns over the upcoming charter amendment election propositions A and B.

Ramirez criticized the city for allegedly failing to meet statutory notice requirements for the election, claiming that the propositions were only publicized on social media shortly before the meeting. He argued that this lack of notice disadvantaged voters, particularly those who may not have had adequate time to understand the implications of the measures. He urged the commission to postpone the election to ensure compliance with legal notice requirements and to allow for a more informed electorate.

The meeting concluded without further public comments, leaving the commission to consider the implications of Ramirez's statements as they move forward with the election process.
