I am extremely disappointed in the transparency Mayor McCann is showing with hiring his wifes best friend as his Sr Assistant. Myssie McCann is representing the City of CV in Mexico and handing out proclamations like she was an elected official!! Now she has her best friend of over 10yrs Marla Farrage (licensed realtor, CVCF board member, director at Eastlake church) working for the Mayor. This is a conflict of interest and there needs to be transparency in the interviewing and hiring process for Mayor McCanns staff! Mrs McCann needs to understand she is not an elected official and does not represent the city of CV The following members of the public spoke regarding various topics:

John Acosta, Chula Vista resident
Obviously Robert O

2. Attachment 1 - Proposed Charter Amendment Redline.pdf

3. Item 8.2 - Ballot Measure- Charter Amendment.pdf
JEROME O. TORRES
Placed before you are a self-serving proposal disguised as political reform propagated by the Laborers’ International Union of North America (LIUNA) Local 89. Please consider these ramifications:

1. If approved, Chula Vista would be the ONLY California municipality with a population less than 300,000 to have a full-time Mayor and City Council.

2. It would deprive the Mayor and City Council the ability to fully negotiate labor contracts for its public safety employees.

3. It would negate the prior vote of the Chula Vista residents who limited the terms of the Mayor and City Council to two full terms – and no more.

4. It would deliberately bypass the Charter Review Commission who were appointed to consider ANY measure to reform our City Government.

If the Mayor and City Council approves placing this measure on the November ballot – and openly support it – the political ramifications for those seeking reelection in 2026 and 2028 may be severe. The residents know this is a blatant quid pro quo masquerading as political reform. Choose wisely.
