This new playground will be an incredible asset for our community and a great step towards inclusivity in our recreational spaces. After many years, it is exciting to see the work getting started. July 9, 2024. Closed and Open City Council Meetings. Council Break Summary. I completed the Environmental Studies Basic and Advanced
City Council Councilmember Activity Report
2 Certificate program at the end of June, which covered CEQA, EIRs, Phase I Environmental Site Assessments, Climate Change, Design for the Environment, ISO 14001, Municipal Solid Waste, and many other topics over the past 2.5 years of study. Somewhat overlapping the environmental studies endeavor, I resumed paralegal studies. In mid-July I attended a moving one-year anniversary memorial for a community activist, Milind Makwana, who is so dearly missed. I have recently attended meetings for the Scofield and Linda Vista area projects to hear resident concerns and understand the projects better. I have also been studying the synthetic opioid issue and the impact sale of these illegal products has had on our community. I hope everyone had an opportunity to rest and reflect during this down-time. August 24, 2024. Kid’s Fun Festival. I attended this really fun festival for kids of all ages at Memorial Park. There are booths from countries all over the world; if you have not had an opportunity to attend, please join next year as it is a great way to learn and connect. The photos are of Mrs. Taiwan, the Uzbekistan cultural presentation where I got to wear a queen’s ensemble, and our own Santa Clara County Fire Department where young and old alike could lift up the very heavy clothes and headgear our firefighters wear and appreciate the arduous work they do to protect us. There was plenty of food, entertainment, and global social fun at this popular annual event!
