The Vallejo Participatory Budgeting Committee adjourned at 6:45 p.m. after members said they did not have a quorum and discussed how to reschedule a meeting to prepare for an upcoming reallocation item and to address Brown Act concerns.

Committee members and staff discussed two procedural options: staff or the committee secretary could adjourn the meeting to a later, specific date to avoid re-noticing, or the committee could re-notice the meeting. A staff member told the group, "You can call a meeting. You can adjourn it if you'd like." The staff member also said "10 minutes is sufficient" when estimating a short meeting window if needed.

The discussion focused on re-familiarizing the committee ahead of a reallocation agenda item and clarifying Brown Act requirements. Committee members said they wanted to meet before introducing new members to the reallocation discussion so the group would be prepared and Brown Act obligations would be observed.

Committee members used the meeting to welcome new participants. Commissioner Patricia Hunter welcomed Councilmember Helen Marie Gordon ("Cookie") and thanked the newly appointed committee secretary, Jason, and the committee's legal advisor, identified in the record as Attorney Z.

No formal motions or votes were recorded on any substantive budget or policy items at the meeting. The only formal outcome recorded in the transcript was the adjournment at 6:45 p.m.; staff and the secretary discussed whether to re-notice the meeting or adjourn it to a specific future date to preserve notice requirements.

The adjournment leaves the reallocation item and Brown Act compliance issues to be scheduled and discussed at a future meeting. The committee did not take action on funding reallocations during this session.
