4. Request for Event Funding-Futsal Soccer Club
Mayor Hernandez noted that this item had been discussed at previous Council meetings and opened the discussion by asking Council members if they had any additional comments or concerns regarding the Event Funding Request.

Councilmember Valdovinos told the Council that he is all form giving the funds to the Futsal Soccer League.

Councilmember Boyer told the Council that he agrees to give the funds to the Futsal Soccer League.

Councilmember Gomez stated that his vote has not changed since the last time it was on the agenda.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa- There were several concerns regarding why I voted "no" on this item, so I would like to clarify my position.

First, Greg, you were correct in identifying the agenda error. That error is the reason this item is before us again today following the June 8, 2026, Council meeting, and I credit you for bringing that issue forward.

However, my concerns extend beyond the agenda error.

The larger issue is the process surrounding the funding request and the involvement of City staff with the Farmersville Elite Soccer Club. The agenda error was caught but was not caught.

Specifically:

1. A City of Farmersville administrative staff member submitted funding applications on behalf of the Farmersville Elite Soccer Club.

2. That same City staff member submitted requests for payments.

3. That same City staff member was involved in processing checks that were issued to the league over multiple years.

At the same time, that staff member also served as a coach for the very same soccer league, along with Mr. Jordan. Due to this more questions should have been asked.

Yet, you Greg continued to be okay with it and just plainly excuse it. So, I have proof of examples of what I am talking about.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa handed out back up information regarding her concerns Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa informed the Council that the checks were not made out to the Boys and Girls Club.

According to information provided, each participant was required to pay $5 to play in the Elite Soccer Club at the Boys and Girls Club. Families were being asked to cover those costs while City funding was simultaneously supporting the program.

I believe the public has a right to ask questions about how those funds were collected, how they were used, and where the money ultimately went.

According to City records, from August 2017 through May 2025, the City of Farmersville paid a total of $8,473 toward the program.

For the 2026 application, projected revenue from participant fees was estimated at approximately $1,600 per month for activities running from June 11 through September 17,2026, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Based on those projections, participant fees over the seven-year period are estimated to have generated approximately $36,213.

Combined, City funding and participant contributions total approximately $44,686.

I also have text messages and supporting documentation that I would like to provide to the Council so that everyone has access to the same information.

The messages indicate that participants were told the $5 fee would be used to reimburse costs associated with the City, the Boys and Girls Club, insurance, and facility rentals. The messages further state that the fee applied to all participants, not just children residing in Farmersville.

For many low-income families, especially those with multiple children participating, these costs are significant. Those families make difficult financial choices, and every dollar matters.

They deserve to know that decisions are being made fairly, openly, and with appropriate accountability.

Mr. Jordan was quoted in the newspaper as saying, "I gave up my summer to give them an opportunity." I sincerely hope that statement reflects the full picture of the commitment made to these children and their families.

At the end of the day, this should always be about serving our youth not creating confusion, raising questions about transparency, or generating concerns regarding financial oversight.

As Vice Mayor, I have a responsibility to ask questions when something does not appear right. This is not about blaming any one individual. It is about recognizing that this process should have had stronger oversight from the beginning.

Moving forward, I am asking the Council to establish a clear policy requiring any request involving City resources or funding to include proper documentation, justification, and supporting records. Every decision should be transparent, and every organization should be treated fairly and consistently.

I have raised this concern repeatedly since joining the Council We have families in our community who have experienced genuine emergencies, including devastating house fires, where financial assistance was not provided. Yet we are willing to approve requests such as this without the same level of review and accountability.

That inconsistency is why I believe greater transparency and oversight are necessary moving forward.

This is also an opportunity for the school district to meet the City halfway. I have continued to advocate for these types of partnerships and solutions because Farmersville youth deserve opportunities. Opening gym facilities for public use or finding ways to share the cost would be a true partnership.

Supporting our youth is the responsibility of the entire community.

Moving forward, we need transparency, accountability, and people who are willing to ask questions when something does not seem right. I am not sitting in this chair just to go along with everything placed before us. I am here to ask the difficult and uncomfortable questions, whether the request is small or large, and whether people like it or not.

I also have a community comment that I would like to read into the record. This comment was submitted by a community member after the last Council meeting:
"My kids participated in Galaxy and AYSO, and we had to pay for our own expenses. As a coach, I had to cover my own equipment and work to earn points. Three of my daughters were on travel teams, and we did not receive funding. We had to pay out of pocket or find fundraising options. I support kids participating in soccer, but City tax dollars need to be used to fix our roads and address issues like feral cats and stray dogs. Supporting youth sports is important, but this is a community issue, not solely a City issue."
Councilmember Gomez stated that on the Friday before May 11, Rochelle sent an email asking about the soccer team and the City's plans regarding the matter. The item subsequently appeared on the May 11 agenda. At that meeting, Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa requested that the item be postponed because she had legal and procedural questions.

Councilmember Gomez then asked why the information presented by Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa today had not been presented at the May 11 meeting.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa stated that two Council members were not present at that meeting, and I have stated repeatedly that I wanted additional information before moving forward. She also stated if there were questions about my concerns or my position, I did the work to look into the matter. I went directly to the Boys and Girls Club and asked questions about the facility use, staffing, and costs. I asked whether the payment request was intended to cover an employee staying at the facility while the soccer team used it. I was informed that the Boys and Girls Club staff typically leave at 5:00 p.m. and that the soccer group was provided access to the facility afterward. That is why I believe these questions matter. Before approving public funds, we need to fully understand what the City is paying for, who is receiving the funds, what agreements are in place, and whether proper oversight exists.

We also had questions regarding liability insurance. As noted, we recently received the insurance documentation, and I appreciate that information being provided. However, the policy indicates that the league is already a member of a sports, leisure, and entertainment risk pool that provides insurance coverage. That raises additional questions regarding the costs being requested and the extent of the coverage already in place.

Councilmember Gomez again stated that the item was postponed on May 11 because the Vice Mayor had questions that required answers. He noted that every Councilmember has both the right and the responsibility to ask questions before approving the expenditure of public funds. He stated that he did not know whether any discussions had occurred with the City Attorney, but emphasized that the supporting information was not presented to the Council at that time. Councilmember Gomez further stated that when the item returned on May 22, none of the information being discussed today was presented to the Council. He noted that no documentation, audit information, payment records, or other supporting evidence was provided. He stated that this is why he continues to question why the information was not brought forward earlier in the process.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa informed Councilmember Gomez that he is violating closed session.

Councilmember Gomez expressed concern that this information was not brought before the Council until the fourth meeting at which the item was discussed. He noted that there are internal controls in place at City Hall and that no single individual is solely responsible for writing or signing checks. He stated that all checks are reviewed and processed through both the City Manager and the Finance Director, and that this transaction appeared to have followed the same procedures as other City transactions.

He stated that, based on that understanding, he did not understand what the issue was.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa My concern is not about any one individual. My concern is whether proper oversight existed, whether conflicts were identified and addressed, and whether public funds were handled with the level of transparency that our residents expect and deserve. Even if multiple approvals were required before payments were issued, it is still reasonable to ask whether a conflict existed when a City employee was involved in submitting applications, requesting payments, processing payments, and participating in the organization receiving those funds.

Mayor Hernandez stated that she believes there is a potential conflict when staff members submit an application and are also involved in processing the related payment. She further stated that the matter had previously been discussed in closed session, a vote had been taken, and she believed the issue should have been resolved at that time. Mayor Hernandez also stated that she was surprised by the level of public attendance at the June 8th Council meeting and was not aware that the matter would be discussed again. She noted that, had she known, she would have been more prepared.

She stated that she believes this is why Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa conducted additional research and brought the matter back before the Council. Mayor Hernandez further stated that she also conducted her own research and found additional information. She noted that several parents had informed her that they had been paying $5.00.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa advised the Council that Christian from the Boys and Girls Club stating that he was surprised that no one has been asking questions.

Mayor Hernandez stated that our kids are paying $4 to cover the insurance, however, everyone has to pay. She stated that she was upset by this. We need to be sticking up for our residents. As far as the school goes, I can't believe the school didn't pay for half of what they are requesting. If this program was truly for the kids, then the $5 would not have been charged.

Councilmember Boyer stated that, regarding the staff member serving as part of the board, he is not sure whether it is the right or wrong thing. The way he sees it is that we are a small town, and we want to encourage people to be involved with youth groups.

He would hate to see someone who works for the City become disqualified. Additionally, the decision was made by the Council, so if a staff member is doing something, they are doing what the Council directed them to do. He said he can see where the concerns are and what they appear to be. He also believes it is a good idea for staff members to abstain from voting on matters on behalf of the Council when appropriate. However, all of the Council members knew that the staff member was involved when they voted.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa stated that all of the checks should have been made out to the Boys and Girls Club.

Councilmember Boyer stated that all checks are written to a non-profit organization.

He feels it's a positive thing to do for the City by helping the sports leagues.

Councilmember Valdovinos stated that he would like to make changes to the policy to prevent situations like this from occurring in the future. He would also like to see the Council move forward, stating that this matter is in the past and that the Council should focus on the future.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa stated that she does not believe this item is negative and feels that it is straightforward.

Mayor Hernadez feels like things need to get addressed.

Public Comment
Michael Jordan stated that he did not like what was being said because it was not true.

He explained that he only charges participants who have graduated from high school.

He further stated that no children below the 12th-grade level have ever been charged.

Mr. Jordan also stated that they would prefer all checks to be made payable to the Boys & Girls Club.

Mayor Hernandez stated that there are kids still being charged under the age of the 12t grade.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa stated that the kid that is being charged is only 16 years old.

Mr. Jordan asked who the child was, and Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa stated that she was not going to disclose the child's name.

Additionally, Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa expressed concerns about players bringing their younger brothers and sisters to practice. She stated that there is no adult supervision at the Boys & Girls Club for children under the age of 18 while the adults are participating in activities.

Mayor Hernandez wanted to know how there is room for everyone to play sports.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa would like a policy in place and also would like to have backup information from all organizations receiving money.

Councilmember Valdovinos stated that several people reached out to him asking why we did not fund the request.

Council Action: It was motioned by Councilmember Boyer, seconded by Councilmember Valdovinos and approved with a 3-2 vote.

5. Request for Event Funding- Aztec Football and Cheer
Council Action: It was motioned by Councilmember Boyer, seconded by Councilmember Valdovinos and approved with a 5-0 vote.

J. PUBLIC HEARINGS
None
K. DISCUSSION ITEMS

1. Consideration of Amending City Council Meeting Schedule to Conduct Closed Session Prior to the Regular Meeting.

The Council directed staff to consult with the City Attorney regarding whether the City Council meeting schedule may be adjusted to allow for greater flexibility in the meeting start time.

L. COUNCIL REPORTS
Councilmember Boyer- Thanked staff for all of the work that they did for the Memorial Day Parade. Councilmember Boyer stated that, adjacent to the proposed sports park property, the grading has been completed and there is a school bus stop in the area. He noted that, from that location east to Freedom Drive, there are "No Parking" signs and questioned whether those restrictions are still necessary, given that there is a bike lane and vehicles may be able to park along that stretch of roadway. Councilmember Boyer clarified that he was not requesting a decision at this time but rather suggesting that staff evaluate whether the existing parking restrictions remain warranted. He stated that removing unnecessary "No Parking" signs could provide additional parking for nearby businesses, including overflow parking for the proposed sports park. He added that the signs have been in place for many years and questioned whether they continue to serve their original purpose. Councilmember Boyer also had questions for the City Engineer about the Brundage Lights project. Additionally, he raised concerns about pedestrian safety at Ventura and asked if similar "Watch Out for Pedestrians" signage or measures could be implemented in front of Sam's Market. He mentioned that residents have voiced concerns about that area being unsafe.

Councilmember Valdovinos stated that he is currently getting ready to host his back to school backpack event on August 2nd.

Councilmember Gomez thanked Public Works Director for the work on the signal and inquired if we were still waiting for July to have someone come out to look at it. Public Works Director stated that someone would be out July 2nd. Lastly, he thanked the Public Works Director for all of his work.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa, tomorrow is our first meeting with the Small Business Development program. The City of Farmersville is also partnering with the Child Abuse Prevention Council, and we will be holding our first Parent Leadership meeting.

M. CITY MANAGER/DEPARTMENT COMMUNICATIONS
Interim City Manager Jay Brock reminded the Council that the groundbreaking for Smee Homes is June 30th, and that there will be a employee luncheon July 2nd.

Public Works Director Steven Thompson updated the Council stating that flags are currently being replaced. Staff is also tree trimming. A request was made to have the contractor trim the trees near the Veterans Memorial, as well as the trees at the front of City Hall. Additionally, staff requested that the two bushes surrounding the City sign be trimmed and cleaned up to improve the area's appearance.

City Engineer Jason Watts ATP application was submitted today for trail for Liberty Park. He will also be working on a railroad application.

City Planner Traci Myers reported that, at the last Planning Commission meeting, the Commission discussed a request from Valley Pure regarding the operating hours for its retail cannabis business. The applicant is requesting an amendment to the City's ordinance to allow extended business hours. Under the current City ordinance, retail cannabis businesses are permitted to operate between 9:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. State law allows operating hours between 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. Valley View is requesting to extend its operating hours until 10:00 p.m. She advised that any change to the permitted operating hours would require a text amendment to the City's ordinance. She suggested discussing the Council's interest in considering such an amendment before directing the Planning Commission to initiate the ordinance amendment process.

Fire Chief Thomas informed the Council that the Fire Department will be hosting a Car Seat Checkup Event. Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa asked whether resources are available for families who cannot afford car seats. Chief Thomas responded that he would look into potential grant opportunities and contact TCAG to determine what resources may be available.

N. GENERAL BUSINESS
Council members may raise issues, request future agenda items, or provide comments regarding City business.

Mayor Pro Tem Ochoa requested the TBD have dates added to the future agenda items.

Councilmember Gomez asked the City Planner if there were any updates regarding the General Plan. He also expressed concerns about the street names that include variations of "Kristen," noting that the similar names and different spellings create confusion for residents when putting utilities in their name.

STAFF REPORT
Consent
FARMERSVILLE TO: Farmersville City Council
MEETING DATE: July 13, 2026
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
FROM: Watts Jason, City Engineer
AGENDA TITLE: Resolution No. 2026-023
RECOMMENDATION:

Council adopt Resolution No. 2026-023 approving the SB1 proposed project list to be included in the Capital Improvement Program (CIP), as prescribed, to satisfy the program objectives and statutory requirements of the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 (SB1).

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
Senate Bill (SB) 1, which is known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, provides additional funding through a combination of taxes and fees for the purpose of addressing basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs on the State's roadway network. The anticipated amount of funding for fiscal year 2026-27 that the City will receive an estimated $238,260.00.

As part of the requirements, cities and counties must submit to the State a proposed project list with various project details. The project list must be accompanied by a Resolution adopted by the City Council. This staff report will satisfy the funding and reporting requirements.

FISCAL IMPACT
The City is submitting a project list that exceeds the estimated SB1 allocation for FY 2026-27.

However, the identified costs are estimates only and only projects that are within budget parameters will be funded. As noted above, the City expects to receive an estimated $238,260.00 in total revenues for FY 2026-27 from the State's Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA).

DISCUSSION:

On April 28, 2017 the Governor signed Senate Bill (SB)1 (Chapter 5, Statutes 2017) which is known as the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. To address the basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety needs on both the state highway and local streets and road system, SB1 will:
• Increase per-gallon fuel excise tax;
• Increase diesel fuel sales taxes and vehicle registration fees; and • Provide for inflationary adjustments to tax rates in future years.

The State Controllers will deposit various portions of this new funding into the newly created Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (RMRA). A percentage of this new RMRA funding will be apportioned by formula to eligible cities and counties pursuant to Streets and Highways Code (SHC) Section 2032 (h) for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on the local streets and roads system.

In order to be eligible for this funding, recipient cities and counties must:
• Develop and submit a list of projects to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) each fiscal year;
Develop and submit a project expenditure report to the CTC each fiscal year; and ••
Comply with all requirements including reporting requirements for RMRA funding.

The Farmersville Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget will be adopted this year as part of the annual budget process. The RMRA funds will be distributed to the City in much the same way that the Gas Tax revenues currently are
Staff recommends that the following projects be included in the list submitted to the State (See Attachment "A", Resolution No. 2026-023):

GENERAL INFORMATION, POWERS AND DUTIES
A. THE CITY OF FARMERSVILLE
The City of Farmersville has a City Council/City Manager form of government.

Under this form of government, the elected City Council sets the policies for the operation of the Farmersville City Government. The Council is responsible to the citizens for:
• Establishing community-wide goals that address short- and long-range needs. • Formulating policies that define a course of action that shape city operations. • Providing quality services within available resources. • Acting as a link between the professional staff and local citizens.

City Council members are local leaders. The electorate expects the Council to set the tone and direction for municipal operations. Strategic planning and goal setting are the tools that enable a Council to define their vision and determine methods for accomplishing their goals.

The operational responsibility of the city rests with the City Manager, who is appointed by the City Council. The City Manager has the responsibility to apply and administer Council's policies through the day-to-day operation of the city.

The City Manager is the chief executive officer of the city and directs the totality of city operations.

Teamwork between the Council and the City Manager is a key element of the council-manager form of government. The pooling of skills is essential to resolve the many complex problems that face the city today. The council-manager form of government seeks to enhance the effectiveness of local policy-making and municipal operations by bringing together skilled lawmakers, community representatives, and experts in municipal administration and management.

B. COUNCIL ELECTIONS
The City Council consists of five members, elected at large. Each Council Member serves four-year staggered terms, without limit. Elected Officials serve until his/her successor has been elected and qualified. Elections are held in November of even numbered years.
1 C. VACANCIES

California Government Code Section 36502 specifies the conditions under which a vacancy occurs.

D. MAYOR/MAYOR PRO TEM SELECTION
The Mayor and Mayor Pro Tem are members of the City Council and selected by the Council and not elected by the voters. These positions typically serve a period of two years.

E. MAYOR AS PRESIDING OFFICER AND DUTIES THERETO
The Mayor shall be recognized as the official head of the City of Farmersville for all ceremonial purposes and by the Governor for military purposes. In the time of public danger or emergency, the Mayor may, with the consent of the City Council, cause order to be maintained and enforce laws. The Mayor shall act as the Presiding Officer at all meetings of the City Council and perform such other duties consistent with the office as may be imposed by the City Council. The Mayor may move, second, and debate from the Chair, subject to such limitations of debate as are imposed on all Council Members by these rules and shall not be deprived of any of the rights and privileges of a Council Member as such Presiding Officer. The Mayor shall possess no veto power.

The Mayor shall preserve strict order and decorum at all times. The Mayor shall state each item coming before the City Council, and shall upon conclusion of said presentation related thereto call for the vote.

The Mayor shall, in all instances, have the last chance to speak. The Mayor shall sign all ordinances and resolutions adopted by the City Council during the Mayor's presence. The Mayor shall sign all agreements and/or contracts, except where otherwise instructed or set forth by policy.

F. MAYOR PRO TEM
In the absence of the Mayor, the Mayor Pro Tem shall possess and perform the power and duties of the Mayor. In that capacity, the Mayor Pro Tem shall sign ordinances and resolutions adopted in his/her presence. The Mayor Pro Tem shall also have the authority to sign all agreements and/or contracts, except where otherwise instructed or set forth by policy.
2 G. COMPENSATION
Salaries for the City Council Members may be fixed in accordance with Section 36516 of the Government Code of the State of California. Council Members may be reimbursed for actual and necessary expenses incurred in the performance of their official duties as allowed by Government Code Section 36514 and any resolutions or ordinances adopted by the City.

H. CITY MANAGER
The City Manager, appointed by the City Council, is responsible for the overall administration of the City in response to the policies and programs established by the City Council. The City Manager is responsible for forecasting the program and service needs of the City and its related financial, personnel, and capital improvement requirements. The City Manager is a significant liaison with the community and other levels of government.

CITY CLERK
The City Clerk is the local official for elections, local legislation, the Public Records Act, the Political Reform Act, and the Brown Act (open meeting laws).

The City Clerk, in consultation with the City Attorney, ensures that actions are in compliance with all federal, state and local statutes and regulations and that all actions are properly executed, recorded, and archived.

The statutes of the State of California prescribe the basic functions and duties of the City Clerk, and the Government Code and Election Code provide precise and specific responsibilities and procedures to follow.

The Office of the City Clerk is a service department within the municipal government upon which the City Council, all City departments, and the general public rely on for information regarding the operations and legislative history of the City. The City Clerk serves as the liaison between the public and City Council and provides related municipal services. The City Clerk provides clerical support to the City Council.

J. CITY ATTORNEY
The City Attorney, appointed by the City Council, is responsible for providing necessary legal services and guidance to the City Council, the City Manager, department heads, and city boards, commissions and committees to ensure that city functions are performed on a sound legal basis.

Communications from the City Attorney's Office may be confidential and shall be treated as attorney-client privilege. Only the City Council, as an entire body, may waive the privilege, and not individual Council Members. 3 During the normal course of a Council Member carrying out the duties of office, it is common practice to discuss issues or ask questions of City Staff, including the City Attorney. For the purpose of this policy statement, the intent is to regulate an individual Council Member's authority to cause work to be performed by the City Attorney.

When an individual Council Member poses a question to the City Attorney, the City Attorney shall estimate the amount of time required to answer the question.

In the event the City Attorney believes the amount of time for research involved in answering the question will generate a bill in excess of $2,000.00, the City Attorney will notify the Council Member that the answer will exceed policy limitations. If the submitting Council Member continues to seek an answer to the question, the Council Member will pose the question to the Council, as a body, at a Council Meeting and must obtain a consensus of the majority of the Council Members present at the meeting in order for the City Attorney to work on the question.

Legal work involving a question or inquiry that require less than $2,000.00 in billable hours by the City Attorney may be authorized by the submitting Council Member without the need of obtaining the Council's approval.

K. TRIANGLE OF POLICY, PROCESS & PRODUCT

The City Council/City Manager Form of Government is designed for the City Council to set policy direction with the City Manager providing the professional expertise to manage the organization and carry out the Council's direction.

Policy direction is provided by the Council in a variety of ways, including through local laws/ordinances, planning policies (general plan and zoning), financial policies, the annual budget and capital improvement plan, strategic plans, and the adoption of other city council policies. Council works on the big picture of policy development and not the administrative and operational actions of staff.

The City Manager determines how to implement the policies, not the City Council. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the Council's policy direction through the day-to-day management of city functions, including the oversight of city departments. Key tasks associated with this role includes the 4 hiring and supervision of department heads, the implementation of the annual budget and the assurance of quality services and programs.

L. MUNICIPAL CODE

Other directives and policies of the City Council are recorded in resolutions or by minute action of the Council.

I. QUORUM
Three members of the City Council shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. A majority of a quorum shall be sufficient to pass any action taken by the City Council except on such matters, which, by law, require a greater majority.

If a meeting is adjourned for less than five calendar days, no new agenda need be posted so long as a new item of business is not introduced. A copy of the order of adjournment must be posted within 24 hours after the adjournment, at or near the door of the place where the meeting was held.

K. RULES OF DISCUSSION
Motions
Action items listed on the council agenda in accordance with applicable law, or added as an action item on a council agenda in accordance with applicable law, may be voted on by the council.

Following a presentation of the item by staff, the Mayor will open discussion to the City Council for questions and comments. The Mayor will then invite public comments. At the conclusion of public comments, the Mayor should announce that public input has concluded. When there appears to be no further discussion by the Council Members, the Mayor may call for a motion.

Motions may be made by any member of the Council, including the presiding officer, providing that before a motion is offered by the presiding officer, the opportunity for making a motion should be offered to the other 8 members of the council. Any member of the Council, other than the Clerk for the vote.

Voting
The City Council, in the absence of an electronic voting device, votes by "voice vote" on all matters before it, unless a roll call vote is required by law or is requested by the Mayor. If a Council Member fails to voice their vote, then silence shall be recorded as an abstained vote. The Presiding Officer shall announce the results of the vote.

A majority, also known as a simple majority, is a subset of a group that is more than half of the members present.

A two-thirds majority means that two-thirds of the quorum must agree to the proposition. It is much stronger than a simple requirement. In the event of an absence the vote would have to be unanimous.

3. Abstention/Recuse: Conflict of Interest
Council Members shall disqualify themselves if they have a financial conflict of interest or any other disqualification prescribed by law in a matter before the City Council. In such event, they may not participate in the discussion or the vote. Council Members shall state the specific reason for such disqualification. The disqualified Council Member shall leave the Council dais and leave the room until the conclusion of the agenda item unless applicable State law or regulations permit otherwise.

It should be noted, however, a Council Member may speak as a member of the public, on his/her own behalf - as opposed to on behalf of someone :
else - on a matter that directly affects his/her financial interest even when conflicted out. Thus, while a Council Member would have to disqualify him/herself on a matter affecting a piece of property in which the Council Member has a financial interest, he/she could address the Council, speaking to what the impact would be to his/her property.

In some instances, a Council Member may determine that it is appropriate to abstain from voting on a matter even though no financial conflict of interest exists. If a City Council member abstains from voting, their vote will count as a negative. A Council Member is counted as present for quorum purposes, but his/her abstention is effectively a negative vote.

For example, if a matter requires three affirmative votes for approval and one Council Member abstains, at least three other Council Members must cast affirmative votes for the matter to be approved.
9 4. Tie Votes
A tie vote results in a lost motion. In such an instance, any member of the appealed stands as decided by the decision-making person or body from which the appeal was taken.

4. Public Hearings

Only the City 12 Council or City Manager have the authority to place items on a future agenda.

City councils are given the power to pass ordinances by Government Code Section 37100 as long as those ordinances are not in conflict with the laws and Constitution of the State of California or the United States. Approval of an ordinance requires a first reading or introduction and a second reading and adoption, with at least five days between readings (except an urgency ordinance).

The ordinance or a summary is then published in the local newspaper and becomes effective thirty (30) days later. The thirty (30) day time frame is known as a referendum period. A referendum period is required by state law and is a time frame in which any citizen can file a petition challenging the legality of a recently adopted ordinance. An ordinance is an action that can be repealed or amended only by a subsequent ordinance.

In matters deemed by the City Council to warrant immediate action to preserve peace, public safety or health, an urgency/emergency ordinance may be passed immediately upon introduction at either a regular or special meeting, and can be effective immediately.

U. RESOLUTIONS
A resolution sets forth the action of the council on certain types of policy, procedural, or administrative matters. It requires only one reading and may be changed by subsequent resolution.

V. RECOGNITIONS/PROCLAMATIONS
The City Council may recognize individuals, organizations, or activities during the meetings. Other organizations may also present recognitions to the City.

W. MINUTES

The City Clerk shall prepare the Minutes, and upon approval of the City Council, it shall become the official record.

X. APPEALS

Members of the public have the right to attend City Council meetings and to address the City Council on specific agenda items and under the Public Comments section of the agenda. The right of the public to address the City Council includes their right to criticize the policies, procedures, programs, or services of the City, and the acts or omissions of the City Council members. Criticisms that do not relate to City business will not be tolerated.

While the City Council meeting is in session, all persons must preserve order and decorum. A person who addresses the City Council under a specific agenda item or under Public Comments may not engage in speech or conduct which is likely to provoke others to violent or riotous behavior, which disturbs the peace of the meeting by loud and unreasonable noise, which is outside of the Council's jurisdiction, repetitive, or which disrupts, disturbs, or otherwise impedes the orderly conduct of any City Council meeting.
16 The Mayor or other presiding officer shall request that a person who is breaching the rules of decorum cease such conduct. If, after receiving such a warning, the person persists in breaching the rules of decorum, the Mayor or other presiding officer may order the person to leave the City Council meeting. If such person does not leave, the Mayor or presiding officer may request any law enforcement officer who is on duty at the meeting as sergeant-at-arms to remove the person from the Council Chambers. In the event there is no one from law enforcement present, the Mayor or presiding officer may direct the City Manager to contact law enforcement.

Appointed members of Commissions and Committees
Appointed members of Commissions and Committees of the City shall observe the same rules of order and decorum applicable to the City Council.

D. DISCIPLINING A DISRUPTIVE MEMBER
If one member engages in disruptive or unacceptable behavior, it is the responsibility of the City Council to remind the member about their duties. The failure of the governing body to deal with a misbehaving member or commissioner can also have legal consequences for the locality. For example:

1. A City Council member or Commissioner that mistreats staff members by using inappropriate language, asking the staff member to perform personal tasks, hugging or touching staff in an inappropriate manner, etc. may be putting the locality at risk for a lawsuit alleging harassment or a hostile work environment. If the governing body does not take appropriate steps to avoid the appearance of agreement with the objectionable behavior of a fellow member or commissioner, the inappropriate behavior may be considered to have been sanctioned by the governing body.

2. A member that leaks a confidential legal opinion of the local government attorney can result in the loss of the attorney client privilege and with the loss of the attorney client privilege it is possible the opinion can be used in court against the locality. In order to protect the attorney client privilege the other members of the governing body need to take affirmative action against the member that leaked the opinion.

In some instances meeting one-on-one outside of a public meeting can rectify a misunderstanding or correct inappropriate behavior. The manner in which a situation is addressed may be on a case by case basis. If the behavior continues or if the actions are more severe, the City Council may determine other methods of discipline.
17 The Council may vote to remove a Commissioner from their seat. Similarly, a Council Member may be removed from his or her standing committee assignments as well as assignments to outside committees.

One of the most common forms of discipline is for the governing body to a fellow council member. A censure is a public statement condemning the member's inappropriate behavior with the hopes of reforming him or her so that he or she will not behave in the same way again. Members can be censured for misconduct at meetings, failing to follow proper procedures, violating confidentiality, illegal or immoral conduct, absenteeism, lying, disloyalty, working against the organization, conspiracy, and violating other values that the Farmersville City Council holds dear. With a consensus of the Council, a censure may be placed on a future agenda. Censures are then approved by a resolution.

E. DISTRIBUTION OF LITERATURE AND OTHER MATERIALS IN CITY

COUNCIL CHAMBERS
No person, other than City staff, shall distribute flyers, leaflets, placards or other literature or circulate any petition within the City Council Chambers.

Flyers, leaflets, placards or literature may only be distributed to the Council by a member of the public under Public Comments, or by a project applicant/appellant pertaining to City business as may be referenced on the agenda, by approaching the City Clerk and requesting such material be distributed on their behalf.

Hand-held signs are permitted in the Council Chambers, but they cannot block the view of others in the audience or prevent the public from freely entering or exiting the room.

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT:

Adopt Resolution 2026-024 Expressing Support for the Dignidad (Dignity) Act, H.R. 4393

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution expressing the City of Farmersville support for the Dignidad (Dignity) Act, H.R. 4393.

BACKGROUND
The City of Farmersville is a diverse and predominantly immigrant community whose residents contribute significantly to the local economy, agricultural industry, workforce, and civic life. Federal immigration policy directly impacts many Farmersville families, local businesses, and the broader regional economy.

The federal immigration system has been widely recognized as outdated and in need of comprehensive reform that balances border security, humanitarian considerations, and economic stability. H.R. 4393, known as the Dignidad (Dignity) Act, proposes a bipartisan framework intended to modernize the immigration system while strengthening border security and accountability.

DISCUSSION
The Dignidad (Dignity) Act (H.R. 4393) proposes several key reforms, including:
• Strengthening border security measures;
• Establishing a temporary legal status program for long-term undocumented residents that includes background checks, employment requirements, restitution payments, and compliance with U.S. laws;
• Providing structured and lawful pathways for individuals to live and work legally in the United States without granting automatic citizenship;
• Reducing longstanding visa backlogs and improving efficiency in legal immigration and asylum processing;
• Protecting family unity; and
• Directing participants fess toward workforce development, apprenticeships, and job training programs benefiting U.S. works.

Communities such as Farmersville are directly impacted by federal immigration policies.

Local governments have a vested interest in reforms that promote public safety, economic stability, workforce reliability, and dignity for families and workers.

Adoption of this resolution would formally express the City Council's support for balanced federal immigration solutions that uphold the rule of law while recognizing the economic and social contributions of immigrant communities.

This action doesn't change local law or policy; Its serves as a formal statement of position by the City Council.

Fiscal Impact
This has no direct fiscal impact associated with the adoption of this resolution.

STAFF REPORT
Discussion Items
FARMERSVILLE TO: Farmersville City Council
MEETING DATE: July 13, 2026
DEPARTMENT: City Manager
FROM: Jay Brock, Interim City Manager
AGENDA TITLE Information Regarding Animal Control and Animal Licensing Services

ACTION & RECOMMENDATION
Informational report regarding animal control and animal licensing services provided to the City of Farmersville through the City of Visalia.

BACKGROUND | ANALYSIS
A Farmersville resident requested that this item be placed on the City Council agenda to discuss the current animal licensing fees charged by the City of Visalia. The resident expressed concerns that the licensing fee difference between altered (spayed/neutered) and unaltered dogs is unfair.

The City of Farmersville contracts with the City of Visalia to provide animal control and animal licensing services for the community. Under this agreement, the City of Visalia Animal Services Division is responsible for animal control enforcement, responding to animal-related service requests, and administering pet licensing for Farmersville residents.

DISCUSSION
All dogs over four (4) months of age residing within the City of Farmersville are required to be licensed through the City of Visalia Animal Services Division. A valid rabies vaccination certificate is required before a dog license can be issued or renewed.

The City of Visalia's Municipal Code establishes separate licensing fees for altered (spayed or neutered) and unaltered dogs. Although the Municipal Code does not expressly state the reason for the difference in fees, it allows owners of unaltered dogs to qualify for the lower altered-dog license fee by paying a deposit and having the animal spayed or neutered within a specified timeframe. This provision reflects the City's policy of encouraging sterilization to help reduce unwanted litters, pet overpopulation, and the number of stray animals requiring animal control services.

Many California cities use a similar licensing structure because it supports several important public policy objectives, including:
• Encouraging responsible pet ownership.
• Reducing unwanted litters and pet overpopulation.
• Decreasing the number of stray and abandoned animals. • Reducing shelter intake and euthanasia rates.
• Helping control the costs associated with animal control and shelter services. • Promoting public health and safety by increasing compliance with pet licensing requirements.

Overall, the licensing fee structure is designed to encourage responsible pet ownership and sterilization, which can improve animal welfare while reducing the long-term costs associated with animal control and shelter operations. The difference in licensing fees is intended to serve as an incentive for spaying and neutering rather than as a penalty for owners of unaltered dogs.

Because the City of Farmersville contracts with the City of Visalia for animal control and licensing services, the licensing fees are established by the City of Visalia through its Municipal Code and City Council actions. Any changes to the current fee structure would therefore need to be considered and approved by the City of Visalia.
