Votes at a glance: Avalon council approves Brown Act commitment letter and rescinds May 22 FCC letter
Summary
The council approved two related legal-direction items: authorization to prepare an unconditional commitment letter addressing a May 29 Brown Act demand, and rescission of a May 22 FCC letter with direction to file responses to AVX's FCC filings. Both motions passed 4–0 with one member absent.
At its June 25 special meeting, the Avalon City Council recorded two formal actions related to legal correspondence and an outside party's filings.
1) Agenda item 1 — Motion to authorize the city attorney to prepare an unconditional commitment letter in response to the 05/29/2026 demand for cure and correct letter: recorded vote 4 ayes, 1 absent. The council discussion described the letter as a procedural action intended to preclude litigation over alleged Brown Act violations; the city stated it denies the violations.
2) Agenda item 2 — Motion to rescind the 05/22/2026 letter to the Federal Communications Commission and authorize the city attorney to file responses to AVX's filings with the FCC: recorded vote 4 ayes, 1 absent. Council direction was limited to rescission and drafting responses; no final policy on AVX's project or any funding appropriation was adopted.
The clerk recorded the votes; Council member Dela Rosa was absent for both actions. The council adjourned after the items were completed.
