Santa Clara City Council · City Council and Authorities Concurrent on 2026-06-15 6:00 PM - Jun 15, 2026 · 15 Jun 2026 meeting

So I'm glad you all made the groups and then consolidated everything.

And even the consolidation itself is a problem right now, where we end up what we want to put on the agenda.

So I know some of my colleagues picked up some of the issues.

I won't repeat those.

But some of the questions I have, we are talking about the term limits for the commissioners.

So are we...

making it all across the commissions, various commissions, or on one commission, just like council has divided into two terms for the council and two terms for the mayor.

So what if a commissioner moves from one commission to other, are there any term limits for that finding out?

You mentioned library administrative approvals.

So if they approve anything, are there any checks and balances, let's say somebody doesn't like the approval, would the dissenting party come back to the council for appealing of those decisions?

What's the process for that?

Civil services, we talked about non-discriminatory clauses.

My suggestion would be why don't we follow the state laws on that, because state laws keep updating on non-discrimination categories and different things.

Why not we follow that categories, basically?

Consensus about classified, non-classified, unclassified, I know.

Assistant City Attorney, am I right, or deputy, mentioned that we are waiting for feedback from various bargaining units on that.

So that will come back.

So we cannot make any decision today, basically, on that.

Finance and procurement, I know design and build is one aspect which we need to work on, definitely.

You mentioned that we are planning to have carry forward funds, no council approvals, but I'm worried we can have a capital investment, basically slide 40, for the capital improvement funds.
