Salinas Housing and Land Use Committee lacks quorum; minutes continued and consent agenda skipped
Summary
At the start of the Housing and Land Use Committee meeting, Chair Barajas announced there was no quorum because two council members provided notice of absence; the committee continued the minutes from 01/20/2026 to March, skipped the consent agenda and adjourned at 4:05 p.m.
Chair Barajas called the meeting to order and conducted roll call. The clerk read that Council member Sandoval and Council member Salazar were not present and had provided notice they would not attend. "We do not have quorum, so we will not be taking action on the consent, agenda," the chair said.
Because the meeting lacked a quorum, the committee continued ID 26‑O43 (the minutes from the Jan. 20, 2026 meeting) to the March meeting and skipped the consent agenda. The chair opened general public comment for matters within the committee’s subject‑matter jurisdiction, but there were no in‑person or online speakers and the period was closed.
After the committee received an administrative presentation on Chinatown predevelopment work, the chair thanked the presenter and adjourned the meeting at 4:05 p.m.
