What is the agenda and purpose of the closed‑session opening?
All right, good evening everyone. Thank you for joining us for our closed session. City Attorney Log will make a closed session announcement, and then we welcome public comment on the item listed for closed session.
Good evening, Vice Mayor, Mayor, and Council members. There's one item on um this evening's closed session agenda. Item two point one is a conference with legal counsel regarding one item of anticipated litigation pursuant to government code section five four
nine five six point nine D two.
Great, thank you. Would any member of the public joining us virtually or in person like to provide comment on the closed session item listed on tonight's agenda? I am not seeing any in person or virtually, so I will close public comment and we will recess to the plaza conference room for closed session and return to the council chambers at the close to continue to the regular session at six thirty.
All right, good evening everyone. Thank you for your patience. Welcome to the joint meeting of the Mountain View City Council and Shoreline Regional Park Community Meeting of October 14, 2025. Please stand and join me in the Pledge of Allegiance.

Thank you. You have a

No
reportable action was taken in close session this evening. Thank you. Thank you. So we'll move on to item three, our presentations. Please note these are presentation items only. The city clerk, the city council will not take any action. Public comment will occur after the presentation items. If you'd like to speak on these items in person, please submit a blue speaker card to the assistant city clerk now. And so I will um head down to the podium for our first. It's item three point one, our compassion week proclamation.
All right, and tonight we are joined by Yvonne Murray, Compassion Week Co Chair. So I'll invite her up to accept the proclamation. Okay. All right. Yeah, we got to do the kickoff together. All right. And the proclamation reads: whereas the city of Mountain View is a community that embraces, promotes, and values compassion, and whereas the city of Mountain View appreciates the acts of compassion performed by community-based organizations, nonprofit agencies, and individuals every day to foster a kinder and more connected community. And whereas the vision of Compassion Week is to build a strong compassion. And empathetic community that bridges divides by creating service and learning opportunities for individuals to expand their understanding of local and global needs.
And whereas all members of the Mountain View community, regardless of age, background, education, gender, religious beliefs, lifestyle, ability, or skills, were invited to contribute their talents and energy to participate in Compassion Week projects and activities. And help make Mountain View a more caring and kind community. Now, therefore, I, Ellen Kamea, mayor of the City of Mountain View, along with my colleagues on the City Council, do recognize and celebrate this past week that we just had of October 4th through October 12th as compassion week. And so I just wanted to present that to you and then wanted to invite you to say a few.
Sure.
Okay,
wonderful. I would just say that we really appreciate both the city council, but more importantly, we w appreciate all of the uh people in Mountain View that help make Compassion Week meaningful and help contribute to our thriving community. Thank you.
And so I'll just um add a little bit more because I think the Compassion Week we got to kick it off at our plaza in front of City Hall. And there was, I think, over what a hundred projects that people could participate in. And um the city of of Mountain View, we invited all residents to unite and service to our community through participation in the activities.
