The Ojai City Council held a special meeting on October 7, 2025, focusing on community engagement and preparations for the upcoming Ojai Day celebration. The meeting began with a roll call, confirming the presence of all council members, followed by the Pledge of Allegiance.

A highlight of the meeting was the presentation of the Ojai Day 2025 poster, created by local artist Vicky Quinlan. The poster, titled "Purple Haze," was selected from two submissions through a staff vote. Quinlan shared her inspiration for the artwork, which reflects the beauty of Ojai's skies during twilight. Council members expressed their appreciation for the design and enthusiasm for the upcoming Ojai Day festivities.

The meeting also included a brief public comment period, although no comments were received. Following this, the council moved into a closed session to discuss confidential matters. Upon returning, City Attorney Mister Harvey reported that no reportable action was taken during the closed session.

The meeting concluded with a sense of excitement for Ojai Day and the community's involvement in the event.
