City Attorney Duran interjected to clarify that the item before the City Council is the abandonment of the land not a sale of the property. Asked that Council conduct their comments regarding the abandonment and not a potential sale as that is not the public hearing.
Council Member Roberts commented on the request to continue this item in order to find a resolution for the groups that spoke during public communications.
Mayor Warren commented on the item before them and identified that there may be a few different options to ensure that the biking activities at this location can still occur, even with the abandonment of the property. Additionally, brought up alternative locations for some of the activities to relocate.
Council Member Cothran asked staff to identify if there is a way for the biking activities to be staged on City owned property, rather than the private property to ensure that the activity can still occur.
City Attorney Duran interjected asking the Mayor and City Council to call a 5 minute recess so that staff can locate a pointer to better identify the locations
City Council Meeting Minutes April 12, 2022
that they are speaking so that it is clear to both the Council, staff and the public.
Mayor Warren called a recess at 8:58 p.m.
Mayor Warren reconvened the meeting at 9:08 p.m. identifying that during the recess, the City Council spoke to the organizers to reconfirm that the action taking place during the public hearing will not eliminate the opportunity for the City to work with the groups to find a resolution and ensure that the activities that occur can continue.
Council Member Cothran identified that he spoke with Don Jackson to look at the specific trails that the bike races use in order to find a partnership with the City to find a resolution to continue the activities. The fire road within the subject matter was identified as a potential opportunity for the City to allow the bike racing organizers access to the trails, without being on private property as done in past years.
Mayor Warren spoke on the action during the public hearing will not hinder the assistance that the City will provide to both the biking organization, but also to the RC organization.
Council Member Cothran asked staff to assist with identifying the current staging area for the bike races within City owned property.
At this time, Mayor Warren asked Mr. Jackson to come to the podium for assistance with this.

City Attorney Duran also interjected with a request that if any additional Council Members spoke and discussed with any member of the public during the recess on this item, to voice those discussions now for the official record of the public hearing.
Council Member Roberts did not speak to the biking group, as there were two Council Members speaking to the group already and was advised by City Attorney Duran not to engage in the conversation to eliminate a Brown Act violation. Council Member Roberts did identify that in the public hearing process, no Council Member comes into the hearing with an idea on how they will vote.
The intent of the hearing process is to hear public testimony to assist in making the final decision and from the testimony received, Council Member Roberts would like the public to know that he was very impressed. Thanked Council Member Cothran for meeting with the public during the recess to sort through the confusion and provide further clarification for both parties.
Council Member Sandoval commented that he listened to the concerns of the public on the abandonment of this property and listened to the testimony.
Mayor Pro Tem Garcia commented in agreement with the Council in moving forward with this item and to create partnerships with those organization groups.
Council Member Cothran asked for one additional point of clarification that after this motion, the Council will be presented by staff the next steps in this process and at any point the City Council can recommend that the property be refurbished as a public park.
City Attorney Duran clarified the process in front of the Council within this public hearing. Should the Council motion to abandon the parkland, the property is still owned by the City, but that the City is abandoning the property as a park use.
Mayor Warren stated that the abandonment is tonight but the Council still has time to sit down and figure out the use of the property and the assistance of the groups after the motion.
Mayor Warren asked to make a motion that the Council vote to approve the abandonment, but sit down with the organizations to find a resolution for their
City Council Meeting Minutes April 12, 2022
specific causes.
City Attorney Duran advised the Mayor and City Council not to amend the wording in the Resolution before them but rather add a minute order directing staff to work with the organizations to address the issues that have been raised within the public hearing.
Deputy City Clerk Ashton Arocho interjected prior to the motion identifying that there is currently a motion on the floor made by Council Member Sandoval motioning to table this item for a future meeting. Noting for the record that there was no second to this motion, the motion died.
