Mendota council directs staff to propose fixes for facility use policy and Danny Trejo Soccer Field maintenance
Summary
After public comment about park upkeep, the Mendota City Council directed staff by consensus to identify solutions for the Facility Use Policy and the condition of the Danny Trejo Soccer Field and to return proposed solutions at the next meeting.
The Mendota City Council on Feb. 4 directed staff to find solutions for concerns raised about the city’s Facility Use Policy and the condition and maintenance of the Danny Trejo Soccer Field.
Mayor Victor Martinez introduced the Facility Use Policy item and City Clerk Cabrera-Garcia provided the staff report. Public commenters Omar Gomez, Police Chaplain Robert Salinas and Raymond Aquino each addressed the council about issues with the policy and field maintenance. After discussion, Mayor Martinez moved to direct staff to determine solutions addressing the council’s concerns and to return proposed solutions for further discussion at the next council meeting; the motion was approved by council consensus.
The action recorded was a direction to staff rather than a formal, recorded vote; the minutes state the motion was approved based on council consensus. The council asked staff to examine both policy language and the physical condition and maintenance responsibilities for the Danny Trejo Soccer Field and to prepare proposed remedies for the next meeting.
The council’s direction does not specify funding sources or an implementation timeline; City Manager Cristian Gonzalez and city staff will be responsible for drafting the recommended solutions and presenting them to the council for consideration.
