Notes: Where the transcript reported "Passes with 4 yes votes," the council recorded four affirmative votes and one absence (Mayor Perris). Several items were introduced (ordinances) rather than finally adopted during this meeting; items requiring additional readings or external approvals (e.g., annexation/LAFCO) remain subject to further process.
