Summary
Public commenters urged the council to consider a change to a local school model, citing local elder Fred Alex Moss, and a staff request was logged seeking a proclamation for 'Jonathan Davis Day'; nonprofit financial reports for the American Family Shelter were also noted.
During the Nov. 10 meeting, public comment included a plea about a local school model and community support for education. A commenter identified a local elderly resident, Fred Alex Moss, and urged the council to consider a change of school model or specific attention to the county's school sites.
The commenter said the appeal was rooted in local history and community needs, asking the council to "consider our plea" and raising the importance of education and community programs.
Separately, the council was told the nonprofit that supports the American Family Shelter will provide October and November financial expenditure reports and an income statement after a recent vote; those reports will be made available to the council.
A separate, brief request was also placed on the record: Speaker 2 said Richard Wallace reached out seeking a proclamation to designate a day honoring Jonathan Davis. The request was recorded for consideration; no formal proclamation was adopted in the transcript segments provided.
Next steps: The transcript shows these items were entered on the record and that financial reports were forthcoming; no formal action on the school-model plea or the proclamation is recorded in the provided segments.
