Councilmember presses city on weekend code enforcement and repeated residential auto repairs
During council reports, a councilmember raised neighborhood concerns about two private residences repeatedly receiving outside customers for automotive repairs and asked what enforcement mechanisms the city can use to stop commercial auto-repair activity in residential yards.

The councilmember also questioned a recent schedule change he said removed Sunday coverage for code enforcement, telling the council that weekend activity is when many violations occur. The city manager and staff said they would clarify the schedule and follow up; Purchasing Director Alberto Estrada and the city attorney noted that enforcement and code changes fall under council authority and staff would provide legal and operational guidance.

The mayor urged members to direct operational concerns to the city manager first to streamline governance and reserved the dais for matters that require public action. The council did not vote or adopt a formal policy change on code enforcement during the meeting; staff committed to report back with clarification on scheduling and enforcement options.
