Residents praise river cleanup, Council hears Measure D support and personal testimony on cannabis
Summary
A resident reported about 60 volunteers at a recent river cleanup; David Clarno thanked organizers, expressed support for Measure D and described using cannabis for pain management during cancer treatment.
David Clarno, speaking during public comment, said about 60 people participated in a recent river cleanup and thanked organizer Lisa Marie Conan, Rotary, the Chamber and CalTrout for sponsoring and funding the event. "We had about 60 people participate...volunteers, lots of families there," Clarno said, and urged that the cleanup become a recurring event.
Clarno also said he supports Measure D and described using marijuana as part of his pain-control regimen while fighting cancer for four years, saying on-site sampling would have helped him evaluate strains and effects. The remarks linked community environmental work and local ballot measures to broader downtown-activity goals. No formal council action was taken on Measure D at the Oct. 2 meeting.
