Votes at a glance: monitoring wells approved; consent calendar passed; staff directed on protocols and a goals workshop
Summary
The council approved the Ojai Valley Inn monitoring-well permit, adopted consent calendar items including two pulled items (H and I), and gave direction to staff on closed-session protocols and a goals workshop.
This meeting included several formal actions and recorded votes.
- Monitoring-well permit (public hearing, item 2): Approved. The council voted 5–0 to approve an application from the Ojai Valley Inn to install five shallow monitoring wells for data collection related to irrigation efficiency. Staff and OBGMA emphasized the permit is monitoring-only; production wells would require separate county, OBGMA and city review.
- Consent calendar (items approved): The council approved the consent calendar (with items H and I pulled for discussion) by voice vote and then approved the pulled items (H and I) after discussion; approval was recorded by voice and later confirmed by the mayor.
- Policy directions (non ordinances): Council directed staff to post a request for qualifications (RFQ) for city attorney services (closed-session report-out), to return with a revised closed-session protocols draft, and to schedule a four-hour Saturday workshop to finalize city goals and tactics and to provide monetized cost estimates for tactics.
