San Fernando council appoints Fernando Diaz to Planning and Preservation Commission
Summary
The City Council unanimously approved the appointment of Fernando Diaz to the Planning and Preservation Commission (Councilmember Garcia moved; motion passed with Mayor absent). Diaz highlighted local roots and family involvement in city activities.
Council member Victoria Garcia nominated Fernando Diaz to the Planning and Preservation Commission, citing three generations of family ties to San Fernando, volunteer work at local schools and community involvement. Diaz addressed the council, described his history in the city and said he wanted to support planning decisions that benefit the community.
Garcia moved to appoint Diaz; a second was given and a roll call vote recorded Garcia, Salorio, Fajardo and Vice Mayor Mendoza voting yes with Mayor Celeste Rodriguez absent. The motion passed and staff indicated a swearing‑in would follow in short order.
The appointment came during the consent and appointments portion of a joint council and commission meeting that later opened a public hearing on the downtown master plan. Staff will process the appointment per City Clerk procedures.
