Council creates two‑member ad hoc veterans subcommittee to advise on Veterans Memorial Park
Summary
The council authorized a two‑member ad hoc subcommittee to solicit veterans’ input on recognition elements for a planned Veterans Memorial Park; the advisory group will meet 2–3 times from June to December 2026 and report recommendations to the full council.
The Carlsbad City Council authorized formation of an ad hoc two‑member subcommittee to gather input from veterans and veterans organizations about recognition at a planned Veterans Memorial Park.
City staff said the subcommittee will be advisory, meet 2–3 times beginning in June 2026, be televised for public access, and aim to produce recommendations to the full council by December 2026. Fabiola Medina, the city’s director of constituent and clerk services, said staff will use prior outreach lists and solicit email responses to distribute to the subcommittee members. Council appointed Councilmember Shin and Councilmember Burkholder to serve on the ad hoc committee and the resolution passed unanimously.
Staff said the subcommittee would not be subject to the Brown Act because it is ad hoc, but meetings will be telecast and materials will be posted in advance where possible. The council emphasized the advisory scope and the plan to return recommendations to the full council for formal action.
