The City Manager told the council that the River Rock property acquisition remains in progress but is temporarily on hold because the State Coastal Conservancy is awaiting a grant agreement from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The transcript records the manager saying the grant agreement is delayed because of a federal government shutdown and that Fortunaaa's purchase remains "in progress" but in a holding pattern until the grant executes.

No council action was taken at this meeting; the City Manager said staff will report back when the grant agreement is finalized.
