Summary

Ronald Arguejo, chair of the Oxnard Planning Commission, addressed the Simi Valley Planning Commission during public comments to request support for a resolution asking the Oxnard City Council to allow stipends for planning commissioners.

Ronald Arguejo, chair of the Oxnard Planning Commission, used the Feb. 19 public comment period at the Simi Valley Planning Commission meeting to ask for the commission’s support for a resolution to authorize stipends for Oxnard planning commissioners.

"I am requesting your support in our commission's effort to allow stipends for our members," Arguejo said, identifying himself as chair of the Oxnard Planning Commission and explaining that the Oxnard Commission had passed a resolution directed to its city council.

Arguejo said that among Ventura County cities with separate planning commissions, Oxnard was one of two that did not provide commissioner compensation and that he intended to contact Simi Valley commissioners by email with information and potential avenues of support before the matter goes to the Oxnard City Council.

The Simi Valley Planning Commission did not take action on the request during the meeting; the public comment was accepted and the commission proceeded to the scheduled agenda items.

Ending

Arguejo thanked the commission and said he would follow up by email with supporting materials and avenues for commissioners who wished to support the Oxnard resolution.
