REGULAR MEETING OF THE
WEST COVINA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
August 1, 2006
Mayor Herfert requested Community Development Commission Item I-D be held over. Mayor Pro Tem Touhey stated that since he works for the company, outside of the City, he would recuse himself from discussion and left the dais.
Chairman Herfert called to order the regular meeting of the Community Development Commission at 7:20 p.m. in the City Hall Council Chambers, 1444 W. Garvey Avenue, West Covina.
ROLL CALL Chairman Herfert, Vice Chairman Touhey (absent from roll call),
Commissioners Hernandez, Sanderson
Absent: Commissioner Lane
Others Present: Pasmant, Alvarez-Glasman, Bachman, Chung, Durbin, Freeland, Garcia, Hoppe, Lee, McIsaac, Nichols, Rush, Samaniego, Wills, Yauchzee
The record should reflect that Vice Chairman Touhey was present for the CDC meeting but had left the dais prior to roll call due to recusing himself from discussion of Item I-D.
Mayor Herfert explained that Item I-D is a request for the Executive Director to send a letter to specific property owners requesting the use of eminent domain. Since a Resolution of Necessity for Condemnation requires four affirmative votes, Mayor Herfert felt it prudent to hold this item over until there were four members present at the dais.
Motion by Herfert and seconded by Sanderson to hold over CDC Item I-D. Motion carried 3-0.
Mayor Herfert recessed the Community Development Commission meeting at 7:25 p.m. to continue the regular City Council meeting. The CDC reconvened at 9:45 p.m. with all members present except Commissioner Lane.
Councilmember Hernandez left the dais at 9:46 p.m.
