Ms. Hosterman noted that Council took action at its workshop that provided it the <br />opportunity to send letters of support with Councilmember Ayala and Brozosky's <br />signature in support of Workers' Compensation reform generally, with specific bulleted <br />areas. She stated that she would not support additional legislation on top of legislation <br />until it is given an opportunity to see how this will play out. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala said that is exactly what has happened for the last two years and that is <br />why the workers' compensation system is in the state it is in now, which is why there is a <br />new Governor. She called for the question. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Ms. Ayala, and seconded by Mr. Brozosky, to support the <br />Pleasanton Chamber of Commerce and the State Chamber of Commerce, by <br />supporting SB x43 (Poochigan) and AB x41 (Maldonado) [essentially the <br />Governor's Workers' Compensation Reform package], changes or amendments to <br />the bills should be considered, that an open dialogue should be continued, and that <br />the bills be subject to amendment through that process. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was taken as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Ayala, Brozosky, and Mayor Pico <br />NOES: Councilmembers Campbell and Hosterman <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br />6c. <br />Discussion concerning the future of the Livermore-Amador Valley Water <br />Management Agency (LAVWMA) including the managemenh operations and <br />maintenance of its facilities. (SR 04:013) <br /> <br />Mayor Pico continued this item to March 2, 2004. <br /> <br />7. MATTERS INITIATED BY COUNCIL <br /> <br /> Mr. Campbell asked Council if it would be willing to start Council meetings <br />earlier? <br /> <br />Mr. Brozosky was not sure that people would be available at an earlier hour. <br /> <br /> Mayor Pico was not willing to consider it. He did not believe that the community <br />would be able to get to the Council meetings in time to participate. <br /> <br /> Mr. Brozosky mentioned that the Val Vista Park Grand Opening was scheduled <br />for May 1. He noted that the skateboard park had been completed and people are using it <br />illegally. He believed there was a need for this type of use in the community and <br />requested consideration be given to opening the skateboard portion of Val Vista Park <br />prior to the grand opening. <br /> <br />Pleasanton City Council 32 02/17/04 <br />Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />
