Valley Hall of Fame,” which was seconded by Councilwoman Barnard and approved 4-0, as the Mayor Pro Tem at the time (Baca -Santa Cruz) was away for the vote. At the September 2, 2025, Council Meeting, Mayor Pro Tem suggested direc ting staff to work with the EHPC and bring the item back for discussion within six months to a year.

3. Do not approve the proposed Moreno Valley Hall of Fame Guidelines and Criteria.
The EHPC does not recommend this alternative.
FISCAL IMPACT
