Summary

The Kerman City Council rejected a motion to conduct a survey on Madera Avenue bench placement and instead voted to keep benches as installed, directing staff to address individual concerns. The failed motion lacked a second; the subsequent motion passed 4-0-0-1.

During a discussion of the Madera Avenue Streetscape Project on Feb. 11, Councilmember Herrera moved to conduct a survey regarding bench placement; the motion received no second and failed. Councilmember Hall then moved to leave bench placements as they currently are and asked staff to address individual concerns as needed; that motion was seconded by Councilmember Dhaliwal and passed with Ayes: Hall, Dhaliwal, Herrera and Yep (Pacheco absent).

The minutes record the actions as a direction to staff rather than a formal ordinance or project amendment. No specific timeline, survey scope, or funding changes were recorded in the minutes for implementing additional outreach or bench relocation.
