Former Mayor Schneider urges Millbrae council to accept court rulings and avoid appeal
Summary
Former Mayor Schneider told the City Council the Superior Court had issued a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction in her favor and asked the council not to authorize an appeal, arguing further litigation would waste taxpayer funds and deepen division.
Former Mayor Schneider told the council during the public-comment period that the San Mateo County Superior Court had "ruled twice in my favor, granting both a temporary restraining order and a preliminary injunction," and urged city officials to accept the court order rather than pursue an appeal. Schneider said continued litigation has cost taxpayer dollars and eroded public trust, and she asked the council to "let the voters decide the election on the ballot box."
Schneider also said she will file nomination papers the next day for District 3 and framed her campaign as focused on public safety and climate resilience. Her remarks preceded a closed-session discussion; legal counsel later reported the council decided not to appeal the court ruling.
