The City Council of Fullerton convened on July 16th for a closed session meeting, where discussions primarily revolved around agenda items related to local legislation and community services. Mayor Dunlap and other council members were present, while some members were absent.

During the public comment segment, activist Curtis Campbell attempted to address issues concerning homelessness and local legislation, specifically referencing a lawsuit and various state assembly bills aimed at improving housing conditions for vulnerable populations. However, his comments were deemed irrelevant to the closed session agenda, prompting the mayor to remind him to focus on the specific items listed.

One significant legislative item mentioned was Assembly Bill 2011, which would allow local jurisdictions to establish RV parks for residents living in recreational vehicles, utilizing state housing funds. Additionally, Assembly Bill 2339 was discussed, which mandates that emergency shelters be located in residential areas, thereby preventing their placement in industrial zones.

Before the council moved into closed session, a council member announced their recusal from discussions related to item three due to a conflict of interest stemming from their employment at Cal State Fullerton.

The meeting underscored ongoing efforts by the council to address housing and homelessness issues within the community, while also highlighting the procedural challenges of maintaining focus during public comments.
