C Jobs committee selects El Galena as August Business of the Month
Summary
After staff presented several nominees, the committee moved and voted to recognize El Galena (recorded as 'El Galena/El Galena') as Business of the Month for August; nominations came from community members citing longevity and customer service.
The C Jobs committee reviewed nominations for August’s Business of the Month and moved to select El Galena. Laura Collotta, administrative analyst, presented nominees that included Togo's, El Migueleno, Acme Coffee, La Tortuga, Discount Cigarettes, Maligne restaurant and Marisco's Puerto Nuevo, summarizing nominators' comments on customer service, longevity and community contributions.
Commissioner discussion centered on nominees’ community role and longevity; one commissioner questioned whether cigarette shops should be eligible but staff noted nominations came from the community and current policy does not exclude categories. The chair called for a motion and second and announced the motion was in favor of El Galena; the chair then called for aye votes. The transcript records the chair saying, "All in favor Aye." Staff will recognize the selected business in upcoming events and scheduling will be coordinated with the nominations already in the agenda packet.
Outcome: The committee recorded a motion and concurrence to recognize El Galena as Business of the Month; scheduling and formal recognition will follow staff planning.
