Vernon council member Contino calls for probe into 7 Theta Drive certificate-of-occupancy issues
Summary
Council Member Carl Contino asked the council to place a resolution on a future agenda directing the mayor to investigate how a certificate-of-occupancy issue occurred for 7 Theta Drive, produce a detailed report within 30 days and submit a corrective-action plan.
Council Member Carl Contino said he will request a resolution directing Mayor Anthony Rossi to investigate certificate-of-occupancy issues connected to 7 Theta Drive and to return to the council within 30 days with a report and a corrective-action plan. Contino said the review should "identify how it happened" and recommend steps to prevent future errors.
Contino raised the matter during the council-comment portion of the March 2 meeting, saying a formal review is needed so "this never happens again." The minutes record him asking for a resolution that would require a detailed report and a corrective-action plan within 30 days of the resolution's approval.
The request was presented as a council directive to be placed on a future agenda; the minutes do not record a vote on the directive at the March 2 meeting. Council and staff discussed wider concerns about the Municipal Utilities Authority (MUA) and sewer hookups earlier in the meeting and during public comment, but no formal MUA action was recorded that night.
Next steps: the council must vote to place Contino’s requested resolution on an agenda before any formal investigation or report is initiated.
